THE I Published by the SENIOR CLASS EAST HIGH SCHOOL PAWTUCKET RHODE ISLAND ★ CLASS 1943 Q tication , To the boys of the class of 1943 who have taken up arms in the service of our country, —★— To those who are heroically fighting so that tomorrow's world may be a better one, —★ — We, their fellow classmates, dedicate this edition of the Red jacket. Jhey “took the khaki and the. yun 9niiead cap and yautn” 3io-fLtiv oJid W' --ISW E, the class of 1 943. are going forth into a world at war. Once again the forces of liberty and democracy are pitted against those of tyranny and oppression. In this struggle. America and her allies must crush the foe, not just for the present, but for all time. Only with the future free from the shadow of destructive warfare can the world of tomorrow be a better one. Our goal as we look beyond the present darkness is this—a better, an enlightened tomorrow. Upon us. the youth of today, rests much of the responsibility of achieving this goal. We will not be found lacking. Our job today is to save the world: tomorrow, to rebuild it. Whether it be in the Armed Forces, in industry, or in the pursuit of further education, every member of the class of '43 will do his part to help make the world of the future a better one. This ideal has been the inspiration for our RED-JACKET.

Towle Robinson, Associate Editor MARY McDOLE Asst. Business Manager The Classbook Board WE of the 1943 Classbook Board have had to cope with many difficulties which former editors of the REDJACKET have not encountered. Because of rising prices and shortages, it was at first doubtful that a class-book would be possible. However, having been assured that materials could be obtained, the board immediately started work to present to the senior class a book worthy of comparison with former editions. Priorities and other conditions forced us to simplify wherever we could: therefore, our job was doubly difficult, for to simplify and still attain the standards already set by the REDJACKET was a tremendous undertaking. However, we feel certain that our efforts have been successful, and we hope that you enjoy your classbook —possibly the last one from this school for the duration. Miss Esther Champoux, our faculty adviser. worked with us tirelessly. We are deeply grateful for her helpful advice, guidance, and encouragement. Mrs. Lottie B. Carpenter of the art department worked long hours overtime in order to help complete our book before the deadline. The artistic merit of the book is due to her excellent arrangement and flawless workmanship. To the many other members of the faculty who unselfishly rendered their services, and especially to Miss Nellie V. Donovan, our consulting adviser, we offer our sincere appreciation. The board feels certain that the 1943 yearbook is an accurate account of our three years' stay at East Senior High. We know that many of us will soon be in the service of our country. In the better world which we will help to create after the war. we hope that your REDJACKET may recall many pleasant experiences at East High.

Rogers Teacher for 25 Years WITH THE PASSING OF MISS ROGERS. WE HAVE LOST A FINE TEACHER. A GOOD FRIEND. AND A GREAT SOURCE OF INSPIRATION PRINCIPAL HENRY J. WINTERS My dear Graduates of 1943: Probably no class in the history of the school has had more interruptions in its senior year than you have had. Rationing, heatless Mondays, winter weather of unusual severity have all contributed to the total of days lost. Likewise, no previous class has had so many pupils in absentia. Almost a dozen boys entered college at Mid-Year. More than that number of senior students entered the Armed Services. On April 2, about forty of the senior boys took the qualifying tests for the Army or Navy College Training Programs. Interruptions and distractions have been common occurrences throughout your junior and senior years. You have seen schoolmates, friends and members called into active service. Some of you have brothers who have fought on distant battlefields. Some of you receive letters from close friends and relatives who are now living strange lives in strange lands. For many of you. war lies around the very next corner. In the face of all these disturbing factors in your present life, and the foreboding shadows that apparently cling about your future, you have reacted with calm courage and intelligent responsibility. I have seen no weakening of your morale. On the contrary. I have found you diligent, courteous, and responsive at all times. In the matter of attendance, your record is superior to that of either of the two lower classes. You have seemed to feel that school would be to your advantage. When called upon to break your regular routine, as was the case on the day the dassbook pictures were taken, you have conducted yourselves with exemplary propriety. As I write these lines, Latin classes are being conducted in the Conference Room. The students of those classes have come through the main office with extreme quietness and lack of confusion. In the regular classroom of the Latin class, hearing tests have been given all day long. The groups tested today are senior class groups. Each period two Home Room groups have been tested. The manner in which you have adapted yourselves to this day's irregular procedure has excited my admiration. In other particulars this Class of 1943 has shown that it is aware of the seriousness of its responsibilities. I can turn to the records of many students, boys especially, who are this year doing the best school work in their lives. They show they are awake to the future. Life has become more real for all of you. Who could help but be fond of a class like this one? Surely, not I. It is a pleasure for me to assure you that I am aware of the good fight you have made, and are making. I hope that life holds great richness for you. I hope that you will find yourselves by losing yourselves. Hardships, suffering, and sacrifices lie ahead of you. That you will face them courageously, I have no doubt. In so doing, cling fast to that which you know is the good that is in you. Take for your class motto the words that Shakespeare used in Hamlet in the advice that Polonius delivers to his son. He says: “This above all: To thine own self be true: And it must follow, as the night the day. Thou const not then be false to any man. Farewell: my blessing season this in thee! I wish you well.

The causes of this war, at present, are immaterial: our purpose in fighting it is important. If we have no goal in sight except the end of the war. we shall have no lasting peace. The end we seek to obtain is evident; we are fighting to insure our future by driving barbarism from the face of the earth. If we fail to do this, we have gained nothing but a breathing spell after which we shall again be confronted by the horrors of war. Our duty is now clear: we all have our part to play. Some of us will engage in actual combat with the enemy: others will be in the army of workers at home: still others will continue their education in order to gain knowledge which will be valuable to our combined effort. Whichever duty is ours to perform, we must do it well, for our efforts today will make tomorrow's world a better one. a world where peace and freedom will reign unchallenged.

Honor Society The class of 1 943 wishes to pay tribute to Ted Znuj who has been an outstanding figure in the sports life of East since his sophomore year. Besides being captain of the basketball and track teams. Ted set many track records, and was named to the All-State football team. His qualities of sportsmanship, leadership. and courage make him one of the finest athletes ever to wear the Red and White of East High. THEODORE ZNUJ Fed Future Intentions: Physical Education Activities: Football 1. 2. 3: Basketball 1. 2. 3 (Cap tain 3) : Track 1. 2. 3 (Captain 3) : Class Treasurer 1 Class History sophomores: SEPTEMBER—We. the Class of '43. were the first to enter the stately portals of Ye Olde East High.” Because a new school was built on the other side of the river, we were no longer isolated from Juniors and Seniors by afternoon sessions. OCTOBER—Very few of us now went up the down stairway, nor did we saunter into a classroom twenty minutes late only to find out that we went to the wrong lunch period. (We couldn’t get awav with this one for long, though.) NOVEMBER—While a wintry wind lashed across the old high school field, our football team won a convincing victory in the annual Turkey-Day Classic with the Saints (?). DECEMBER—In our first production of the year the Sophomore Dramatic Society entertained a Christmas assembly with Dickens’ “Christmas Carol. In the leading roles were Bob (Prof.) Horton, as Scrooge. and Benny Hamilton. President of the Society. as Marley’s Ghost.” JANUARY—Our first Mid-Years. What a new experience!! (Last minute cramming.) FEBRUARY—Remember our first issue of the Hi-Light? Our basketball team had just finished a successful season, but at the thrilling playoffs at the Arena they were edged out of the State Championship. March—Hi-Y held a successful dance and donated the entire proceeds to the British Relief Fund. APRIL—Easter Vacation! We rested our weary minds and bodies while our football players went through grueling spring practice. May—The major production of the Sophomore Dramatic Society. “Growing Pains,” was a hilarious comedy and a great success. JUNE—Didn't we have fun roasting hot dogs on the beach of Quonochontaug. Miss Bryant’s summer home!! Vacation again till September. Many of us said we would “catch up on some of our studies during the summer months, but it seems we never had time. JUNIORS!! SEPTEMBER—Now that we were experienced Juniors, it was fun to watch the bewildered Sophs try to find their way around. OCTOBER—Our football team began its season with a bang by defeating Rogers High at Newport. 7-0. (By the way, this was our only victory for the year.) NOVEMBER—The corridors buzzed with class election chatter and the results (supposedly a secret). Let’s forget about our football defeats to our city rivals. West and St. Raphael, and just remember the fun we had at the Rally Dances the night before. DECEMBER—The sneaky attack on Pearl Harbor—Remember the special assembly at which we heard the grim session of Congress declare war on our enemies? In spite of the grave spectacle of war many of our classmates took part in the successful comedy produced by our Dramatic Society, You Can't Take It With You.” JANUARY—Wasn't that free lunch good we had at the opening of the Radio Broadcasting Studio? Mid-Years again!! Now wouldn't we appreciate some of that coffee we consumed trying to stay awake for last minute cramming! FEBRUARY—Friday the 13th proved to be our lucky night” for wasn't the Grand March at our Junior Prom pronounced the best ever!! After many long, tedious rehearsals. the Three One-Acts were produced and Barbara's Wedding was chosen to represent East at the R. I. Drama Festival. MARCH—Again our basketball team had an envious record all season. We were the only Class A team that lost but one league game, and that was to West High. The Rangers also edged us out of the playoffs. APRIL—A novel feature was the April Fool Issue of the Hi-Light which certainly fooled a great many of us. One fact was true, however: that is. Ted Znuj and Dave Lancaster won the captaincy of the basketball and swimming teams respectively. May—Remember that old swimming cap we bought at the Press Club auction for a few cents? We couldn't even get our money back when it ripped before we used it. (Oh well, it was a good contribution to the rubber scrap drive.) We were a little sad as we bade adieu to the Class of '42. Now we reigned supreme. JUNE—The remaining Juniors and Sophomores were entertained at an assembly by a Mock Radio Broadcast. Vacation. We looked forward to our Senior year and vowed to make it the best year of all. 52 ft— SENIORS!!! SEPTEMBER—Back to the old grind again. We become air-minded and radio-minded because of the addition of some new courses to the regular curriculum. OCTOBER—When the football players returned to the gym one day. they were amazed to find a bevy of beautiful belles (?) arrayed in various costumes. On finding out that the Leaders’ Corps was having a masquerade party, they decided to get in on the lunch. NOVEMBER—Remember the exciting last minutes of the East-West football game when we saw our valiant players fight on to tie the score at 14-14? Let's forget about that only black mark of the season when St. Raphael won. 35-0. DECEMBER—In the terse, thrilling drama. Night of January 16. Santo (Mr. 5 by 5) Guastello and Ginny (Sailor Gal) Eddy gave the audience something to laugh about. Many of us spent our Christmas vacation working in down-town stores for the usual Christmas rush. That extra pin money certainly came in handy over the holidays. JANUARY—It was a sight to see the Seniors approach the Van Dale Studio on Main Street. The boys, with shining faces and slicked hair, and the glamour gals, with too much lipstick on and hair over one eye. confidently expected the photographer to work miracles (which he did). FEBRUARY—As a result of our victories over the St. Raphael (State Champs) and West High quintets, we were the undeclared City Champs. While our teachers worked tirelessly as food rationing registrars, we had an extra week's vacation. It seems that any student was fortunate who escaped the clutches of measles, mumps, or laryngitis during this extended vacation. Many of our Senior boys left us at this time to attend college. MARCH—The St. Patrick's Day issue of the Hi-Light with the green printing and the shamrocks was an Irishman's delight. We certainly enjoyed watching the splendid performances in the Three-One-Act Plays. More of our boys left for various branches of the Armed Forces. APRIL—Easter vacation again. The Easter parade was quite a different scene this year with new conservative styles (if we were lucky) or last year's outfit with a new hat. May—Class Day! A great number of us were proud to receive our awards on this memorable day. Graduation brought much sadness because we realized that never again would we see all of our fellow classmates together at one time. We tried hard to learn our Class Ode but we were not all good singers so what could you expect. JUNE—Some of us went back to haunt the portals of ye olde East High just to recall some of the fun we had had there in former days. Jo Berardi Last Will and Testament WE. the Class of 1943, A.D., being supposedly sound of mind and body, do, in a rare fit of generosity, hereby bequeath to the following individuals, humans, and groups, these worldly and spiritual things for which we, upon leaving this lazy, academical life, no longer have any earthly use. First: To Mr. VVinters and the faculty members who have so graciously borne the burden of our happy stay at East—the Purple Heart for gallantry in the line of duty while educating us. and an oil ration book, which we hope will warm your hearts toward our illustrious class. Second: To those of East, both students and teachers, who are now serving their country in the armed services—The excess fat which we lost at mid-years worrying, worrying, worrying. Perhaps you can use it to make glycerine to do a little exterminating. Third: To the entire school—Those pleasant. melodious radiator knocks that constantly awaken us from our peaceful slumbers. Fourth: To the Junior Commandos—One bottle of slightly used Sloan's Linament. Fifth: To the Dramatic Society—Our concern that the O.P.A. might investigate your hoarding hams. Sixth: To the cafeteria—Food—ounces of it. Seventh: To the chemical laboratory—One fine brew of Chlorine, Manganese Dioxide, Potassium Cyanide, and Wolfidium, to be prepared with the aid of a leaky gas mask. Eighth: To the Library Circle—Some old paint brushes, two old keys made from a famous alloy containing iridium. Herbium (recently discovered by H. E. W.). and part of the “philosopher’s stone (the latter contributed by none other than our epigramatic philosopher, Mr. W. W. Lee, Jr.) Ninth: To the Glee Club—Something to be gleeful about. Tenth: To the Latin Classes—A book to which we were never—well, hardly ever— so intellectually moronic as to refer to— the “English Translation of Caesar.” Eleventh: To the Debating Society—Er— A Debating Society. Twelfth: To the Radio Club—One barrel of soap for their yearly operas, and a bushel of corn for their jokes. Thirteenth: We hope this is your lucky number, so to the Basketball Team we leave—The splendid record of our victories over West which we know you will strive to attain and surpass. You can and you will. Fourteenth: To the German Club—A hope to spur you to master the language of the “master-race , for when we get over there and clean this war up, then you'll have a chance to give Hitler a piece of your mind. And we do mean in German. When he hears this, he'll surely beg for mercy— who wouldn't? Fifteenth: To the Football Team—Pard Pearce's secret weapon, that Mecca of the vitamins, the five-cent candy bar. P.S.: Try and get it. Sixteenth: To the French Club—Charles Boyer ? Seventeenth: To the Track Team—The cinders from converted boilers. Eighteenth: To the Press Club and Hi-Light. this welcome telegram—Had a few gremlins left over from Christmas—Thought you might like to have them—Sending C. O. D. THE WESTERNER Nineteenth: To the Swimming Team—One pick to chop a hole in the ice and some electrically heated swimming suits. Twentieth: To the Hi-Y and the Student Club—The hope of many more of those delightfully delightful joint meetings. Twenty-first: To the Baseball Team— More fans and less slams. And last but not in the least—To the Sophs and Juniors we leave—One slightly used public telephone booth located just off Winter's Square, one good book of telephone numbers (more slightly used), and a box of wooden priority-exempt slugs to spread goodwill. Also, and the Hi-Light may quote us on this, the terrific memory of a terrific class. Signed. Sealed, and Delivered on the 27 of May, 1943 A.D. Seltzer Water Notorious Public Leonard E.

Their primary purpose is to give a basic knowledge of subjects valuable to the Armed Services. A course in the Elements of Aeronautics was introduced in September of our Senior year, but classes in Technical Radio and in Electricity did not begin until after midyears. All students were encouraged to take as many periods of gymnasium and swimming as possible, and much time was spent on Commando training. After many requests, the Aviation Mechanics class, introduced last year, was finally opened to girls. Its equipment now consists of two planes, five engines, and many smaller parts. Aeronautics, a closely related subject, is designed to teach the pre-flight subjects, including Aerodynamics. Avigation, and Meteorology, which are necessary to pass a Civil Aeronautics Authority examination. The airminded and farsighted students, both boys and girls (for Aeronautics has been offered to girls from the start) who took these subjects were enthusiastic in their praise. One and one half years after the initial offering of Radio Broadcasting to East's pupils, a class in Technical Radio was opened. Full credit for a half year's work was given to students dropping some less timely class in favor of that or Electricity, the latter course open to boys only. Many future Signal Corps recruits will undoubtedly come from among the students in these classes. The physical fitness program was stepped up to keep pace with the changing demands of this wartime world. In gymnasium the boys competed for the obstacle course championship. Those who were not taking either gymnasium or swimming were urged to do so. and those taking them once or twice a week, to take several additional periods. Not only do these war courses afford preinduction training to those destined for the Armed Forces, but they also form a basis for many successful careers in the opportunity-studded fields of peacetime Radio and Aviation. In our preoccupation with present troubles, we must not loose sight of the new world that the future will bring. We must prepare now by gaining as much knowledge as possible. East's new courses provide such an opportunity. Sally G. Stanton - (57 ACTIVITIES P w I—I [xh CQ pc; H i—i P DRAMATICS HI-LIGHTS CLUBS MUSIC COMMITTEES RADIO STUDENT COUNCIL First row. left to right.

Student Council THE year 1942-43 was a very successful one for the Student Council. We were very fortunate to have at our head two presidents worthy of recognition. Russell Grant, president until he left for government service, and Alan Butler, his successor. Others holding office were George Seifert. Vice-President: Bruce Clark. Treasurer; and Betsy Meikle-john. Secretary. The first project undertaken was that of selling ice cream at all home basketball games. Money raised in this way was placed in the Council fund. Following the example of the Councils of other years, we observed the Christmas season by erecting in the school lobby a beautiful tree which was enjoyed by students and teachers alike. Members of the council helped to patrol the cafeteria during lunch periods, thus assuring our school of cleanliness and health. We also aided Miss Katherine Murray in the sale of war bonds and stamps every Tuesday, the regular sale day. The Student Council next assisted in the sale of class rings and pins. Members took orders before and after school at the main office, and distributed the rings and pins when they arrived. In May the Council collaborated with the Library Circle and the Parent-Teachers' Association to sponsor a roller-skating party which was a great success. We wish to extend a vote of thanks to our adviser. Miss Nellie V. Donovan, and to our principal, Mr. Henry J. Winters, whose wise guidance in all these undertakings enabled us to complete our purpose. Our aim was to serve the entire student body, and we hope that this goal was achieved.

McCabe Radio Club STARTING the school year by conducting a gala Roller Frolic”, the members of the East High Radio Club, under the supervision of Miss Henrietta C. Brazeau. inaugurated the second year of the club's existence. The proceeds of the skating party were used to finance many successful projects for which the group was commended time and time again. Throughout the year our members became acquainted with such NBC stars as Ralph Edwards, celebrated master of ceremonies and originator of the Truth or-Consequences program: Herbert Moss, popular director and producer: Albert Pascal, the only stage manager in radio: and genial Ed Herlihy, outstanding announcer, who can be heard saying. “It Floats”, every week on a popular Saturday evening comedy show. In the course of the school year the club made an educational trip to Boston, visiting Emerson College. Boston University, and station WNAC. key outlet of the Yankee Network. It was at the latter place that Ken and Carolyn, stars of a daily housewives’ program, The Yankee Kitchen , endorsed the work of the East High Radio Club. Other activities of the club, too numerous to mention in detail, were presenting the annual Radio Assembly: compiling the Victory Log , a list of the ten top patriotic programs: and giving the weekly Radio Workshop presentations. Of course we must mention the generous gesture of station WFCI in awarding to the best performer in the Workshop series a valuable gift plus a seven-week contract for work at the local studios. Officers of the East High Radio Club for 1943 were James Bannon. President: Donald Spalding. Vice-President: Esther Boghossian. Secretary: and Joseph Winsten and Antoinette Lewis. Treasurers.

Gray The East Hi-Light THE East Hi-Light, East’s monthly publication. in the opinion of the judges of the National Scholastic Press Association, provided such a broad account of school activities during the past year that it was rated as one of the four best student papers of its class. Throughout the year, the Hi-Light was generous with its use of humor. Typical of this policy was the April 1st issue. The student body of East proved very gullible when reading stories headlined as follows: “ROMEO AND JULIET’’ TO BE SENIOR PLAY BANNON FORCED TO RESIGN SCHOOL FOR SOPHS ’TILL 5:30 Other outstanding copies of the Hi-Light were the Christmas issue, the St. Patrick’s Day issue which was printed in the traditional green, and the senior issue. The latter was the last issue printed during the class of 1943’s stay at East, therefore it was dedicated to them. In this issue there appeared brief stories of senior students, feature stories on the reception, class day. and the coming graduation. Outstanding ‘spot’’ stories such as announcing the Honor Society, dramatic and .radio events, and the sport stories were enthusiastically received by subscribers. Among the best-like columns were the “Alumni Notes”. “Locker Room Social ”, “The Clothes Line”, “Bright Lights”, and “News Briefs”. The editorial staff for the year was comprised of James J. Bannon. editor-in-chief: Sally Stanton, editor of page two: Betty Wheaton, editor of page one: and Gloria Del Papa, editor of page four. James J. Bannon -4 63 PRESS CLUB First row, left to right: L.

Under the capable supervision of Miss Dorothy Bryant, members toured the offices of The Pawtucket Times, made comic albums for soldiers in sick bay at Newport, sold candy at all home football games, and held a super-colossal auction in the school auditorium. The club’s most important activity was the awarding of the coveted gold and silver pins to those members of the Hi-Light staff who had earned the required number of points.

Wir haben uns durch verschiedene Programme amiisiert. Im Dezem-ber. zum Beispiel. teilten wir Gaben aus und sangen Weihnachtslieder. Im Februar hatten wir ein musikalisches Programm und wir horten die Geschichte der Oper Hansel und Gretel” und auch besondere Lieder daraus. Und so erwarten wir jeden Monat etwas Neues.

Hi-Y THE East Hi-Y Club of 1942-1943 completed another successful year under the expect supervision of our advisers. Dr. Percy R. Crosby and Mr. Mil-ton S. Locke. Speakers, dances, ping-pong tournaments, and basketball games made our meetings highly enjoyable. In spite of the fact that some of our most prominent members left to go to college in February, the club s activities were brought to a happy conclusion through the efforts of our hard-working president, “Little Joe” Gale. Don Spalding Student Club LIKE so many other organizations, the Student Club had to place its activities on a war-time basis. Many of our members volunteered for Junior Nurses’ Aide duty at the Memorial Hospital. Later when the Red Cross needed quilts, each girl helped by knitting a square. While in the midst of these activities. we attended lectures on post war problems and discussed the question of employment for women after the war. Thus we feel that the Student Club has really been doing its part in the war effort. Esther Boghossian -«€{ 65 TREBLE CLEF CLUB First row. left to right Muriel Senior. Al bit Torkomian.

The Treble Clef Club ALTHOUGH one of the youngest and smallest groups at East, the Treble Clef Club won recognition for furthering a taste for better music throughout the school. The chorus, under the direction of Miss Miriam Hosmer. was composed of fifteen girls, chosen because of their interest in music and their fine singing voices. At a radio broadcast in March the chorus sang a cappella music for the first time. A concert and participation in a Music Week assembly were the two other important events of an enjoyable musical season.

Among its many efforts, the club collected paint brushes for the government, and with the money received, purchased new books. Another innovation was a barn dance and rollerskating party which was sponsored by the Circle along with the P. T. A. and Student Council. By keeping teachers and students well informed with varied table and bulletin board displays, the club proved itself especially valuable. Pauline Fournier GLEE CLUB First row. left to right: L.

In May we made Glee Club history by combining the glee clubs, bands, and orchestras of our school and the West Senior High School to present a concert in our auditorium. With performances at a radio broadcast in March and at an assembly to celebrate Music Week, we rounded out a delightful and successful year. Twyler Mae Felch The Band THIS year a magnificent band sprang up under the leadership of Mr. Robert Gray and Mr. Richard Garland. Started in our junior year, it reached its full height on March 1 1, 1943 at a concert given as a bond rally. During the football season our band also livened several games with its morale-building cheer songs. Nearly half the band’s members were eligible for duty in the annual All-R. I. State Band. May this organization, founded during our reign at East, grow better and better in the future. Betty Wheaton - 67 STAMP CASHIERS First rout, left to right: E. Farrell. B. Perry. G. Coutu. R Cummings.

We can be proud that we were able to serve our country on the home front by helping to send supplies to our brothers, fathers, and fellow students in the Armed Services. Under Miss Katherine Murray’s guidance, the cashiers proved to be willing and capable aids in the drive. The excellent response to the sale of bonds and stamps proves that East’s students are looking ahead and are saving for a better world. Wallace Merdinyan Cinemasters' Club ONE of the highlights of the Cinemasters’ Club this year was the organization of a Civilian Defense Projection Corps to assist Mr. Wilfred E. Berube, director, in the showing of film programs to the various Pawtucket Civilian Defense groups. The Cinemasters were the first to organize in the state. Besides this, the club carried out its usual function of projecting pictures for classes and assemblies at East. Wallace Merdinyan 68 }§ - CHEERLEADERS Front Jean McAdams.

Both sunshine and cloudy weather found the red-and-white-dad lassies, together with the cooperative pep squad, giving the victorious Redjackets their moral support. We owe our successful season to our patient athletic directors. Marjorie Furbish and Max Read. Good luck, cheerleaders of ’44! Hope Williamson Managers' Club THE Managers’ Club had a very successful season under the able guidance of President Richard Fairman. The managers are the boys behind every team which takes part in scholastic sports. It is their duty to see that things run smoothly. This year, as a club, they sponsored their own basketball team, the Ramblers, which had the distinction of being undefeated. Other officers of the organization were John McCabe.

Boys from East and West alternate in these four week periods. At the club they have lunch, listen to the guest speakers, and become acquainted with men who are representative of our city’s industrial and business life. This year there were ten Junior Rotarians from East High. Alan Butler Cap and Gown Committee THE Cap and Gown Committee was one of the very few groups not greatly affected by the war. In recent years. East's students have been graduated in cap and gown, and again this year traditional black was selected. To save time the committee used a new method of ordering the caps and gowns by having all seniors fill out blanks stating their height and size, thus eliminating the tedious job of individual measuring. In this way the Cap and Gown Committee reached a higher level of efficiency. 70 )■ — Sally G. Stanton JUNIOR PROM COMMITTEE Lt l to right: I.con ard Chadwick. Eleanor Kelly. Antoinette Lewis.

Junior Prom '42 FRIDAY. February 13. 1942! According to superstition, this date should have been one of bad luck. Instead, it was an evening filled with music, for it was on that night that the class of ’43 held its Junior Prom, with couples dancing gaily amidst the snowmen, skiers, skaters, and other winter characters that decorated the gym. A conga and a spot-light dance which consisted of a medley of waltzes were the special features of this unforgetable night. Alan Butler Senior Reception Committee THE Senior Reception Committee had to face many new problems this year which previous classes had never met. For the first time the possibility of an informal Reception arose as a direct result of gas rationing. Decorations had to be cut to a minimum, restrictions on the sale of ice cream hampered plans for refreshments, and there were few orchestras available. When this book went to press, no final plans had been made. Sally G. Stanton -4 71 DRAMATIC SOCIETY First row. le t to right: G. O'Gorman. O Buck. R. GarAnkle. C. Beauvais. I. Jacqurt B Cinqmars.

The Dramatic Society THE house lights dimmed, and the curtain went up on Growing Pains”, our Sophomore Dramatic Society’s first production. acclaimed to be the best Sophomore play in a long time, and the first to attract such a large audience. The capable direction of Miss Dorothy Bryant did much to make this, our first play, so great a success. In the following year, the actors and actresses of '43 became members of the Senior Dramatic Society, and took major parts in the first play of the '42 season. You Can't Take It With You”, and also in the three one-act plays. This gradual success marked the birth in '43 of a new and prosperous Dramatic Society. The officers elected in May. 1942, were: President, Clyde J. Walsh: Vice-President. Antoinette Lewis: Secretary. Bette Stanley: and Treasurer, Leonard Chadwick. Under these capable officers, the Thespians started the year with that super mystery, Night of January 16th”. All of our presentations were under the direction of our Dean. Miss Flora S. Curtis. To her we owe more gratitude and thanks than can be expressed. Her encouragement and untiring efforts were the guiding factors behind every successful play. Much credit is due also to the members of the business staffs who worked unceasingly to make our productions financially successful. Getting ads. ushering, selling tickets, and making up the program were just a few of their numerous tasks. We cannot forget the stage crew boys who worked so efficiently backstage, moving everything from a wall to a flower pot on and off the stage. The property girls who supplied the innumerable articles needed in each play also deserve a vote of thanks. As we leave the portals of East High, we wish success to the coming Seniors who are to take our places in carrying on the glorious traditions of East. Clyde J. Walsh. President 72 }• - Behind the Scenes BACKSTAGE at any Dramatic Society production is always a center of teeming activity. The boys of the stage crew set up huge pieces of scenery, move furniture, and place doors, windows, or fireplaces, transforming the bare wooden stage into a palace, garden, or whatever is desired. Footlights, houselights, “spots , and the curtain all function smoothly under their careful supervision. Any emergency which dares to arise back-stage is quickly dispatched by the resourcefulness of the stage crew. Prop girls run hither and yon. putting in their proper places the properties so necessary to the action of the play. These girls can search out any needed article, from a Roman toga to a live snake. In the wings stand the prompters who have cued the actors through the long rehearsals, ready to help again if needed. They also see to it that a telephone sounds, a shot rings out, or thunder is heard at exactly the right moment. When the curtain rises on a stage beautifully set in every detail, much credit is due to the untiring, unheralded efforts of the workers behind the scenes. Thanks to them, the play can go on. Gloria Del Papa The Night of January Sixteenth WITH a bang of the gavel and the swearing in of the jury began The Night of January Sixteenth. one of the most unusual and successful plays presented by the East Senior High School Dramatic Society. The production centered about a court scene for which the jury was chosen from the audience and the witnesses were called up from the audience. Representing the state was Robert Lowey, a talented thespian, while Everett Aspinwall very ably defended his client, Dorothy Peterson, who was on trial for the murder of her employer, a financial tycoon. Dorothy delivered a splendid performance, and she stated her case exceptionally well. However, the fine acting did not stop there, for Santo Guastello, as a rookie police officer, took the opportunity to display his excellent acting ability and provided much humor as he testified for the state. Virginia Eddy's testimony proved to be one of the high spots of the play, for while she was testifying on the state's behalf, she took advantage of the chance to make eyes at Judge” Edward Motyl and the male members of the jury. George Anderson. Robert Bryant. Merrill Percelay, William Tierney, Gloria Del Papa. Robert Gardiner. Clyde Walsh, Sally Stanton, and Jeanne Rice completed the cast. When the final curtain fell, the true suspense began, for the jury then retired to reach its decision. After several minutes of deliberation, the foreman stepped forward to announce that the defendant. Dorothy Peterson, was found to be not guilty, a decision highly agreeable to all. Merrill Percelay -• 73 The Three One-Act Plays disposed of the unwanted character was the source of much amusement to the audience which was by now very pleased with the proceedings up to this point. Ruth Stanley and Everett Aspinwall carried off the honors of the evening in the play ‘ Op-O'-Me-Thumb . Ruth, as a friendless and forlorn laundry worker completely captivated the audience with her pathetic little love affair. The excellent support of the other members of the cast, the costumes, and the set all contributed toward making ‘ Op-O'-Me-Thumb” the undisputed winner of the contest. An amusing end to a pleasant evening came with the presentation of a gift to Miss Flora S. Curtis, director of the plays. Running down the aisle, guns in hand, came James Bannon and Everett Aspinwall guarding some mysterious article in a suitcase. They arrived on the stage and after much difficulty, amid roars of laughter, finally produced the gift—two pounds of precious butter. Once again, then, as in previous years, the presentation of the three one act plays proved to be one of the outstanding events of the year at East. Pauline Fournier THE night of March 19, 1943 was a cold and rainy one. but the audience which attended the East High Dramatic Society's annual one act play contest was warm and receptive. The first play. Sleeping Dogs”, was a hilarious comedy which showed how two couples, Ned and Peg Sloane (George Anderson and Betty Wheaton) and Joe and Minnie Phillips (Santo Guastello and Jeanne Rice), were almost separated by a spinster-like character (Virginia Cooke) who came to their homes canvassing for magazine subscriptions. The problems presented by such a complicated situation were ably handled by all members of the cast and after such a fine beginning the audience was eager to see what was to follow. Kiss the Star was full of the trials and tribulations suffered by the editor of a college newspaper and his assistant (Bob Lowey and Edward Motyl) when they sponsored a fraudulent contest. An especially funny scene was provided by the sudden appearance of the supposedly fictitious winner, Hiram Hitcherpuss (James Bannon). The way in which the editor's girl (Dorothy Peterson) 74 js— SENIOR PLAY CAST Senior Play EDNA FERBER and George S. Kaufman have written many exceptional plays, but high among their triumphs ranks Stage Door.” the study of the emotions of twenty-one women, all engaged in theatrical work, and all living under the same roof. The story of the play does not deal with the superficial, but rather with the incessant efforts of determined youth to be a somebody instead of a nobody despite all adversity. The movement of the story is kept fresh and lively with the varied problems, loves, and hopes of the thirty-two members of the cast. The action of the play took place in the Footlights Club. a rooming house for girls of the stage, supervised by Mrs. Orcutt (Georgianna Manickas.) Terry Randall (Betty Wheaton), a stage-struck, determined young girl, was pursued by two suitors. David Kingsley (James Bannon). a movie director, and Keith Burgess (Robert Horton), an aspiring Broadway playwright with considerable communistic inclinations. Jean Maitland (Dorothy Peterson), Terry's closest friend, rose from obscurity to movie fame. Since jobs were few and far between, job-hunting was the favorite pastime of most of Mrs. Orcutt's tenants. This sport was indulged in all too frequently by Olga Brandt (Beverly Gardiner), Mary McCune alias Little Mary (Gloria Del Papa). Mary Harper alias Big Mary (Bette Stanley). Bernice Niemeyer (Stella Dudzik). Madeleine Vauc-lain (Antoinette Lewis), Judith Canfield (Virginia Eddy), Ann Braddock (Hope Williamson), and Kaye Hamilton (Beverly Henry). Equally convincing in this same line of endeavor were Linda Shaw (Muriel Senior), Bobby Melrose (Sally Stanton), Louise Mitchell (Bertha Cinqmars). Susan Paige (Josephine Berardi), Pat Devine (Natalie Mania), Kendall Adams (Betsy Meiklejohn), Tony Gillette (Beverly Neilsen), and Ellen Fenwick (Mildred Collier). Others in the cast were Mattie (Joan Habershaw) and Frank (Robert Gardiner), the colored servants, Larry Wcscott (Santo Guastello—as funny as ever), Billy (Walter Gale). Adolf Gretzl (Phillip Feldman). Mrs. Shaw (Theresa Nainteau), and Dr. Randall (Merrill Percclay), Terry's father. The young girls' beaux were Sam Hastings (Leonard Chadwick). Jimmy Devereaux (William Tierney). Fred Powell (George Seifert) and Lou Milhauser (Alexander Hanewich). Unselfish toil on the part of Miss Flora S. Curtis, our director, made success possible. The stage crew worked tirelessly at its unglamorous but important task. The business committee spent hours of well rewarded time and energy. And so. the final curtain fell: the last wave of applause faded away; and the class of 1943 s senior play was but a cherished memory. Leonard Chadwick -475 The Dramatic Society Award HATS off to the winners of East's Dramatic Society Award for 1943! They have been chosen by both students and teachers for this great honor because of their outstanding high school records. Such distinction is theirs on the basis of character, scholarship, school spirit and participation in extra-curricular activities. To qualify for the award one must be a member of the Rhode Island Honor Society, but it is not necessary to be a member of the Dramatic Society. Formerly a committee of faculty and students chose the winners. Now the seniors have the privilege of voting for the boy and girl who have the best qualifications. The six who receive the most votes are then considered by the Faculty who select the two most outstanding. The award itself, in addition to the honor, is fifty dollars to each winner. It is understood that this money, usually earned by the senior play, is to be used for the future education of the recipients. If they do not choose to further their education, the sum is left in the Dramatic Society treasury. These students have certainly earned their honor and prize and so again, congratulations from the class of '43 to GLORIA ELIZABETH Del PAPA DONALD HOOD SPALDING Mary McDole 76 }►- LAO PrY.

With a number of experienced linemen and backs plus promising sophomore material, the East squad, led by co-captains Paul Redkovich and Alan Butler, presented a fast and hard fighting unit. The opening game at Providence saw East score a 14-6 victory over Classical. On the following week, the Redjackcts traveled to Portsmouth, N. H.. where they trounced the local eleven 20-6. At Newport on October 3, the Easterners were at their peak, and smothered a hapless Rogers squad 46-6. setting a scoring record for an East High football team. Woonsocket and Mt. St. Charles were guests of Pawtucket in the next games, and were defeated by scores of 6-0 and 19-0, respectively. October 26 brought Coyle High from Taunton, Mass., to Pawtucket. In a high scoring contest. Coyle was defeated 25-12. Central Falls High, because of inexperi- enced material, forfeited her game to the Red-jackets. New Bedford High, a strong eleven from New Bedford, Mass., filled in for Central Falls. In a hard fought affair, the Easterners were again victorious by a 19-13 score. On Armistice Day. East opposed West at the Pawtucket Stadium. Throughout the first half the play was even, and it was not until late in the fourth quarter that West assumed a lead which seemed sufficient to insure victory. East struck back through the air and tied the game at 14-14 with 10 seconds of playing time remaining. Our enthusiasm was dampened, however, by the loss of Alan Butler, star halfback. November 26, Thanksgiving Day, brought together undefeated St. Raphael and undefeated but once tied Pawtucket East. The Easterners fought valiantly for four quarters, but succumbed to the Saints 35-0. Despite the Thanksgiving Day game, the season's record is an enviable one, and we hope that next year's team will meet with equal success. T.

Basketball CLINCHING the city championship with a 36-31 win over its closest rival for Blackstone Valley laurels, the 1 943 East High basketball squad culminated a successful season. With such individual stars as Ted Znuj. Bud Shannon and Walt Kowalski, the Red-jackets played through a schedule tougher than that of any other valley aggregation. Thrashing both West and St. Raphael twice during the course of the season. East accepted the city championship with reluctance. knowing that because of mathematical restrictions they would never, attain that which they coveted most—the state championship. With Teddy Znuj leading the way as captain, the 'Jackets went through their schedule, beating the top teams in the state and bowing to those not so highly rated. The Red and White played with a fighting spirit right up to the last game, and it was not until after this game that they were definitely considered as not being quite of play-off calibre, although the 'Jackets had beaten three of the play-off participants at least once throughout the season. Holyoke, the first team on East's schedule, proved to be a much better team than the Jackets. Although losing their first tilt, the Easterners next engaged with St. Raphael’s Academy, the potential state champions, in what proved to be a very embarrassing encounter for that school. After splitting even in their next two “tune ups”, the 'Jackets were ready for league competition. Coach Arthur Nooney has guided many teams, but his praise of this year's aggregation was heartfelt, for he knew they had the spirit and stamina so evident in the class of 1943. James J.

Swimming Team WHEN the swimming season opened. prospects did not look too bright. East had lost Gossler and Kluttig, the cocaptains of last year's team, and had very few veterans returning. However, there was some consolation in the fact that the regulars who were returning were good. David Lancaster. who was elected to the captaincy of the 1943 team, was back. John Cornett, our diminutive diver, returned. Jack Hulme was there, and so were Jim Heffernan, George Burke. Walt Kosacz. Dan McLoughlin. and George Brooks. Newcomers who strengthened the team included Alec Hanewich. Paul Heffernan. Lawrence Quinn. A1 Hauser. Leon Weymouth. George Chalko. Grant Midgely. Kenneth Hindle. and Les Robertson. What was first thought to be a weak, undermanned team soon proved itself to be a fine, smoothworking unit. Opening the season against Moses Brown. East got off to an impressive start by defeating its opponents. 34 to 28. We next met our arch-rival. West, and again were victorious, this time by the score of 44 to 22. In our next meet, however, we were not so fortunate, and fell before a strong St. George's team. 37 to 29. East soon got back on the victory road with a smashing 46 to 20 victory over Dean Academy. In the return meet with Dean, the team continued its winning ways by overpowering the visitors. 40 to 26. Then, in the final meet of the year, they again came out on top. sinking West to the tune of 43 to 22. Thus another season came to an end. and again the swimmers of the Red and White enjoyed success. To this year's team we say, ''Congratulations”, to next year’s Good Luck”. Alan Butler 82 )5— BASEBALL First row. left to right: Coach Pard Prarcr. Frank Fallon. Spencer Rounds. Paul Si. Armour.

Baseball BECAUSE of the loss of many of last year's players who had either entered the Armed Services or had gone to college, the baseball squad retained only four of last year’s regulars, Alan Butler. Frank Fallon. “Bill” Mulligan, and “Hank” Zabka. The squad was coached by none other than the old mentor himself. “Pard” Pearce, who tirelessly drilled it in the fundamentals of baseball. Although the season had just started when this dassbook went to press, we had every reason to believe that our team would be very successful. Don Spalding Track THE excellent coaching of Athletic Director Max Read made the prospects of this year’s track team extremely bright. Although our team was not of championship calibre, it gave the other schools plenty of competition. Led by such outstanding runners as ”A1” Kelly, “Chick” Tweedly. and “Ted” Znuj. the group distinguished itself with the aid of last year’s experienced tracksters plus several new recruits.

Girls' Leader Corps WHEN Miss Martha Jones first started the Leader Corps at our school in 1931, the high standards and ideals of this select club were formed. As the years passed, membership in the Leader Corps came to be a distinct honor and privilege. The girls are leaders not only in the gymnasium and swimming classes, but also are prominent in various other school activities. Because of the high scholastic standing already set by the Corps, the girls strive to make better grades in order to uphold this enviable record. Last year when Miss Jones assumed new duties as assistant to Karl Sherry. Miss Marjorie Furbish took her place as friend and adviser to the members of the Corps. We are very grateful to Miss Furbish for her untiring efforts to make this year a most successful one. The Leaders met bi-weekly and. after short business meetings. Miss Furbish instructed the girls in the proper use of the gymnasium apparatus. and taught them how to give commands and how to take charge of a group. The officers elected for the year were as fol- lows: Ruth Taylor, President: Dorothy Tait, Vice-President; Janice Wood. Secretary; Mary Smith. Treasurer; Josephine Bcrardi. Historian. Antoinette Lewis. Chairman of the Social Committee, was ably assisted by Hope Wil Iiamson and Betsy Meiklejohn, as well as by the group's officers. Together they planned many enjoyable social events such as a Hallowe'en masquerade party, a skating party at the Arena, installation of new sophomore members, and a camp trip in May. A joint East-West Leaders’ dance was held at the Oak Hill Tennis Club in the fall, and the two school groups also enjoyed watching the “Ice Follies together. As we leave East High, we cannot help thinking that the Leader Corps has had a deep and good influence on us. We wish all future Leaders success in keeping up the high standards of the Corps. “To it use will always give our best: For it ive will always live our best.” Jo Berardi 84 )S— GIRLS BASKETBALL First row. left to right: G.

The teams that participated in the event numbered fourteen: three of which were senior, four junior, and seven sophomore. Those who were victorious after five weeks of competitive play were scheduled for an interclass play-off game and also for a game with West High. The senior champions, the Commandoettes. won their class championship each year, and in their junior year were successful in defeating the top ranking senior team. Georgie Manickas Girls' Swimming GIRLS’ Swimming has always been a favorite means of developing good health. This year with physical fitness so important, the swimming program was made more difficult and strenuous than ever before. At the completion of many hard practice sessions, two interclass meets were held. The seniors took honors on both occasions with the scores of 40-1 3 and 30-1 1.
