East High School - Redjacket Yearbook (Pawtucket, RI)

Text from Pages 1 - 132 of the 1950 volume:

Published by THE SENIOR CLASS EAST HIGH SCHOOL Pawtucket, Rhode Island Class of 1950 Foreword the members of the Red jacket staff of 1950, have chosen The Golden Harvest as the theme of our classbook, for we realize the truth of the saying, as a man soweth, so shall he reap.” As Sophomores, we planted the seeds of learning; as Juniors, we carefully cultivated them; as Seniors, we have gleaned the re- sults. Now it is time to prepare for the harvest. Equipped with the knowledge, skill, and ambition acquired at East, each of us leaves to make his own way into the world. Let us therefore re- member that knowledge is power, but knowledge that is not prac- ticed is impotent. Our classbook is the outward symbol of the friendships made during our high school years. It will be a constant reminder of our hopes, dreams, and ambitions. Let us cultivate our lives in such a way that someday, glancing over the pages of the Redjacket and recalling its cherished memo- ries, we may truthfully say, I have done my best; I have reaped my Golden Harvest.” TABLE COJITE .FOREWORD .DEDICATION .ADMINISTRATION .SENIORS .CLASS ODE .CLASS Ml STORY .SUPERLATIVES Principals Message A year ago in my message to the class of 1949, I urged the class to cultivate the virtue of charity. To you, members of the class of 1950, I repeat that message: Cultivate the virtue of charity. This world, into which you are stepping, has greater need today for champions of charity than perhaps at any other time in his- tory. We are being torn apart by ideologies and hatreds simply because we are not thinking. We are not using our God-given intellects to weigh what we hear and what we read. You have now finished twelve years of formal schooling. These years have been spent primarily and essentially in developing your mind, your heart, and your soul. As you go forth from us now, never stop developing these. It means work; it means sacrifice; but without these—work and sacrifice—you are not going to become the man or the woman you had hoped to be. You are not going to take your place among the leaders of your community, your state, your nation. You arc not going to be a leader in whatever profession, business, or industrial field you may choose to enter. Only through the medium of work and sacrifice can you attain for yourself the name, the fame, the place you want. Remember, too, that if you are unwilling to work and work and work more, someone else will gain for himself the coveted place you seek. In whatever worthwhile field you enter you will find it highly competitive and it behooves all of you, in order to attain your objective, to realize this and strive with everything in your power at all times to put forth your very best efforts. In doing this you need not lose sight of the great virtue of charity. The most prodigious workers the world has known were at the same time charitable. The truly big man or woman is truly charitable. By bigness I do not mean physical big- ness; I mean spiritual and mental bigness. And to you, members of the class of 1950, my sincere wish and prayer is that you will always be truly big—big in your charity toward your fellow-man, big in your kindness in dealing with your fellow- man, and big in your reliance on Him who will not forget you if you forget not Him. Good luck, and God be with you, James P. McGeough Dedication Mr. James P. McGeough is With Great Pleasure That We, The Class of 1950, Dedicate Our Classbook to Our Friend and Principal, Mr. James P. McGeough, For His Understanding, His Genial And Loyal Friendship, And His Spirit of Co-operation Mrs. Elizabeth T. Bartlett RETIRED 1950 Mrs. Elizabeth T. Bartlett came to the Pawtucket Senior High School in 1925, after her marriage to George W. Bartlett, Director of Manual Training and Shops in the schools of Pawtucket. Owing to the scarcity of qualified substitutes, she taught almost every subject in the curriculum of the high school and in the one year of summer school she taught Latin. Previous to 1925 she taught Latin in private schools in Washington, D. C., Baltimore, Syracuse, Worcester, Boston, and Portland. After Mr. Bartlett’s death in 1932 she was appointed a regular teacher in the Pawtucket school system in 1933. She slipped gradually into the English and his- tory departments, and in 1949 became a member of the remedial department of the East Senior High School. The students who were fortunate to receive her instruc- tion acquired a solid foundation of English and history. The school administration, faculty, and students of East Senior High School extend to Mrs. Bartlett their sincere wishes for future happiness and health. Jit HI muriam Mrs. Lottie Bloomfield Carpenter Mrs. Lottie Bloomfield Carpenter, born and educated in Central Falls, a graduate of Rhode Island School of Design where she completed work in two departments — Design and Drawing and Painting, was appointed Art Supervisor for Central Falls. She loved her work and was loved by pupils and teachers. Mrs. Carpenter gave freely of her time. In fact, she would draw Christmas trees with colored chalk on the blackboards in the elementary schools and draw a present on the tree for every boy and girl, always giving the biggest and bright- est drum or doll to the littlcst and poorest child. Many prominent Rhode Island citizens remember her with warm affection today because of her interest in them as children years ago. She married Lester Carpenter of Central Falls, a veteran of World War I. In 1925. about four years after his death. Mrs. Carpenter was appointed Commercial Art teacher in the Pawtucket High Schools. Her art students won many prizes, due to the fine supervision they received. Upon the death of Maude E. Bradley in 1930. she was promoted to Art Director of the Pawtucket Public Schools, holding this position until her death February 12, 1950. Mrs. Carpenter was also Art Supervisor of the Classbook for many years. Most of us remember the colorful Physical Education Pageants which were held for many years in the McCoy stadium, but few realize the important part that Mrs. Carpenter played in these affairs. The costumes were designed by her and then made under her supervision. Mrs. Carpenter did work in designing and painting, but in 1947 she became intensely inter- ested in ceramics. For the past year she had been experimenting with glazes, trying to achieve lovely colors and color gradations. The structural design of each piece she created was always beautiful in its clean, strong lines. She felt that a bowd should be pleasing not only to the eye, but to the touch; and above all. be functional and suit the purpose for which it was designed. About one month before her death. Mrs. Carpenter was elected to the Providence Art Club on the basis of her ceramics. She anticipated retir- ing next year and devoting most of her time to this line of art. Mrs. Carpenter also worked for many years as a member of the Mothers' Aid Society of Central Falls, and as a member of the American Legion Auxiliary. With the passing of Mrs. Lottie B. Carpenter, who devoted her life to art and education and who was always an inspiration to all. her many friends, pupils, and associates in the teaching profession are saddened by this great loss. It can be said of her, Her works do follow her.

Lee Assistant Principal PRESIDENT DWIGHT DOUGLAS TRCASURtR JOStPM PIMCNTA; President's Message DEAR CLASSMATES: Another chapter of our lives is at a close. From early childhood we have prepared for this, our first step into the outside world. All must now begin anew. Each has the opportunity to bring forth from himself the best that is in. him. We have been blessed with the opportunities of a democracy'. The tools have been placed in our hands; it is up to us to use them in the proper way. We have already laid the foundation for our future; now we must build upon it. Let us have high ideals and strive hard to maintain them; let us set our goal and work toward it. We should plant the seeds of honesty and dependability early in life, for, though at times choked by weeds of intolerance and indifference, truth will inevit- ably flourish. Whatever you are be the best if its kind.” We set our own price tag in the world. The hours we spend now in learning, and in applying the knowledge already gained will bring to us the thrill of achievement. They will make us a credit to our Alma Mater, and reap for us a Golden Harvest. May it always be bountiful! Joseph Abreu Joe Future Intentions: Undecided. George Ackley Future Intentions: Undecided.

HlORNS East High, the world is calling Thy children once again; The golden trumpet heralds An urgent, sad refrain. We’ve planted seeds of friendship; We’ve gleaned along the way The wisdom and the knowledge Instilled in us today. You’ve given inspiration. The warmth of friendship’s glow; You’ve shown that we can only reap The seeds which first we sow. You’ve taught us loyalty and truth, And honor in our play. While sportsmanship, and courage. Have always been our way. East High, we’ve worn your colors. Three years have found us true; With hearts aglow, and loving. We come to honor you. God bless you, Alma Mater, Throughout the brave new days; We’ll pav to you our tribute With gold of love and praise. Prepared to meet a challenge With lofty heights in view, Thy youth move on with vigor To start their life anew. And now ’tis time for parting. We pass from out your door To reap the golden harvest Success may hold in store. Fifty-three The Gleaners And then we left another year Behind and, oh, what Joy, In September we’d be Seniors So poised, and smart, and coy. We are the class of Fifty, Ours is the glory today; Born to a world of turmoil, We face a challenged way. As Sophomores in forty-seven, we came Within these massive walls; Small, wide-eyed, and bashful, We paced its long, wide halls. We learned here how to study. To work with all our might; We learned a daily lesson; It made our school days bright. On the eighteenth of December We really had some fun; We said, Let’s Call It Christmas”. They claimed the play well done. In April we had Growing Pains” And were we Sophomores proud. For we were REALLY actors; The applause was long and loud. And then in May we Sophomores danced. Remember? —Way back then We crowned our Queen and sang our songs; The year rolled on again. And then in June we said goodbye Till Summer days were o’er; But we knew that in September We’d be back again once more. As Juniors we were in between.” Did we pick on the Sophs! We worked, — oh, yes, but still we played; They gave us lots of laughs. January then came (Along with all the snow) Our Mid-year’s — and. Oh, misery They can surely cause some woe. But we were smart; we studied And so of course we passed. At the Mid Year Hop we grinned and said, Next year will be our last.” In May the Junior Prom came round. Our yellows and our greens Made our East High Gymnasium The prettiest e’er seen. This year has been our biggest. For we’ve found what school life means; It’s fun, it’s work, it’s friendship — These things we reapers glean. Our football team tried mighty hard. Those boys deserved a hand; We cheered them on as best we could With the Leaders and the Band. Our basketball and swimming teams Have brought bright fame to East, With Lantagne, Franklin, Brisco — To name a few at least. It was during school vacation That we had our All School Dance.” It was a semi-formal And was laden with romance. The Senior play, Kind Lady” Was also a success. So were our Radio Broadcasts And most everything, I guess. Then came our time of parting On a balmy night in June. We enjoyed our Senior Reception; The year had gone too soon. And, as Class Day approached us, Memories passed in review — V ictories, defeats, and endeavors, The work we had plodded through. Our years at East have been happy; We’ve kept old contacts, — made new; We’ll never forget its lessons And to its ideals we’ll be true. For three years we’ve carried its banner. As Seniors, this year nas been ours, We’ve sown many days of labor; We have reaped many golden hours. —aluson L. hiorns Fifty-four Rhode Island HONOR SOCIETY (Group I) First row (1 to r): A.

J onA S_________ D. A. R. Awards Each year the Daughters of the American Revolution honor the most outstanding boy and girl in the senior class. This award is based upon personality, scholarship, and character. The decision is made through a vote by students and teachers, and the award is one of the greatest honors accorded in high school. NANCY WELCH was known all through our years at East for her inimitable wit, her quick, friendly smile and her versatility. She played a leading role in nearly every Dramatic Society produc- tion for three years. She participated in sports, was an active mem- ber of the Radio Club, and was Advertising Manager of the Hi- Light. In her senior year she was secretary of the Student Council and president of the Tri-Hi-Y. In addition to all these extra curricu- lar activities, Nancy found time to maintain such a high average that she was enrolled in the R. I. Honor Society. That DWIGHT DOUGLAS was an active and popular member of the class of ’50 was attested by the fact that he was elected presi- dent of our class. He was also president of the Radio Club. He played the lead in The Man Who Came to Dinner” and has had sizeable parts in several other plays. Dwight showed promise of becoming an outstanding athlete until he injured his knee in a football accident. He was one of the two senior boys who repre- sented East at the weekly meetings of the Rotary Club of Pawtucket. Dwight also was a member of the R. I. Honor Society. These two students truly deserved this honor which they re- ceived. Both were worthy of the award because of their pleasing personalities and their scholastic and extra-curricular achievements.

V,A iS, ' f Ji J� i K it J i jt ■ f m n % t J In former years, the same staff has arranged the format of the Class Book and solicited advertisements to defray expenses. This year, however, an independent faction was created to finance the book. Dick Ball and Jim Mortram were chosen as co-editors by a unanimous vote. Several meetings were spent in deciding upon a theme. The theme is the overall design which maintains the continuity of the book. We finally chose The Golden Harvest as a symbol of the benefits which we have reaped during our years at East. At the beginning of'March, with deadline only 15 days away and a mere handful of assignments completed, we were suddenly faced with the common journalistic problem of completing three months work in a few days. The dummy was finally completed and rushed to the printer. Our last taslf was to proofread the galley sheets. This done, we put down our pencils, cleaned up room 208, and left with a pleasant memory—the mem- ory of working together to attain the common goal which we set for our- selves in September—the production of what we hoped would be the Classbook ever compiled at East. 1 3.

Adviser • i' J w? 1} Stas - This year a separate staff was appointed to handle all the financial problems entailed in the publication of the classbook. Formerly, the editorial staff not only compiled the book, but also managed all problems about funds. Early in the year the business staff chose Joseph Audet as Business Manager and John Nazarian as Assistant Business Manager. Other appoint- ments made were as follows: Martha Camac, Circulation Manager, and Dolores Trudell as Secretary. Their main task was to solicit advertisements. Only a few of them had had any experience in this line. Their adviser. Mr. Bolton, suggested that, as an incentive, they engage in friendly competition. They recorded their successful attempts graphically on the board of their meeting room. In this way. they could easily compare the number of ads which each of them had obtained. Their efforts relieved the editorial staff from the burden of soliciting ads and distributing books, and left the latter free to devote all their time to the actual production of the book. Much credit is due to this hard-work- ing division of the classbook board. STUDENT COUNCIL First rou (I to r): B. Foy, N. Curtis. N. Kas- Rarian. A. Wilbur. K. lartin, B. O'Brien, N. Welch. S. Doak.

Student Council As in years past, the Student Council again accepted the responsibilty of acting as representative for the student body, and of discussing ideas which would be of benefit to the entire school. Composed of Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors, the Council this year was guided by Miss Mary M. Moriarty, who gave generously of her time. The officers were elected at the first meeting of the year, and included the following: Robert O'Brien, President; Kenneth Martin, Vice-President; Nancy Welch, Secretary; and Andrew Wilbur, Treasurer. In early October, the members of the Student Council decided to sell water- repellent book covers. These were printed in our school colors, red and white, and were adorned with a picture of East High. Inside was a place for the student’s name and address, and notes from various classes. During the Christmas season, as usual, the Student Council placed and dec- orated a Christmas tree in the first floor corridor. It was gaily adorned and did a great deal to spread the holiday spirit throughout our halls. On February twentieth, the entire student body and their guests were welcomed at the Snow Ball, sponsored by the group. The event proved a big success. Blue and white streamers decorated the gym, while a huge snowman cheerfully surveyed the crowd. The students all realized and appreciated the fine work of the Student Council. The rules they made and the activities they sponsored helped make our senior year a pleasant one. Sixty-eight The Hi-Light Ten times a year the Hi-Light, East’s school paper, is published to bring the news of school life to the student body. Under the guidance of Miss Dorothy Bryant, faculty adviser, and Richard Ball, Editor-in-Chief, the staff early began a publicity campaign which heralded the intensive drive for subscriptions to save the life of the school publication. There was a debt of two-hundred dollars from the previous year, so one hundred per cent endorsement by the student body was considered necessary to enable the Hi-Light to survive. However, in spite of the failure of ten per cent of the pupils to rally to its support, sufficient funds were raised to enable the staff to start editing. Under the direction of Nancy Welch and Carol Gallagher, advertising man- agers, the group brought in many advertisements for each issue to further insure financial stability. Just when the paper’s future seemed secure, printing costs rose. A new printer, the third, was sought — one whose rates were less expensive. With a new printer came new problems, and the staff had to adjust themselves to new methods of preparation. Finally difficulties were smoothed out. In November the Hi-Light arranged the annual student-faculty basketball game to raise still more money. For the first time since the inauguration of the series, the faculty tied the students. Any resemblance between the game and basketball was purely coincidental and was not the fault of the players. On January 31, 1950, the Hi-Light elections were held. After a glorious term of office the seniors retired, willing everything (including Gallant Bess”, Miss Bryant’s ’33 Dodge) to their successors, the under-classmen. THE HI-LIGHT First row (I to r): M.

Cinemasters The visual education department is ably assisted by students enrolled in the Cine- masters. These students relinquish their study periods in order to operate the mo- tion-picture projectors for classes which wish to see films. Each year Mr. Joseph Fournier trains new members in the use of both still and motion-picture projectors, the public address system, and wire and tape recorders. This year, for the first time, the club accepted girls as members. The aim of the department is to eventually have at least ore pupil in each class who is capable of oper- ating the equipment. R. O. M. P. The most awe-inspiring title of all stu- dent activities belongs, no doubt, to the school photography club. The Royal Order of Master Photographers. Miss Mary Quirk is the able adviser of this club, which is more often called the R.O.M.P. At the club meetings on Thursdays, slides and lectures are usually furnished by the Eastman-Kodak Company. During these meetings, members compare their latest snaps and discuss photographic tech- nique. The club members use the dark room of the chemistry lab to learn how to de- velop, print, and enlarge pictures. The president of the R.O.M.P., John Renfrew, snapped nearly all of the informal shots in this book. Seventy Caps and Gowns The Cap and Gown Committee was chosen in a slightly different manner from that of previous years. Formerly, members were selected during class elections from a list of nominees. This year, however, a boy and a girl were elected from each home room. At the beginning of March, under the supervision of Miss Margaret M. Barry, the committee members measured all the seniors. They decided to adhere to custom and to rent black gowns. On graduation day they supervised the distribution of the caps and gowns and later returned them safely to the Waldorf Clothing Company. Treasurers Among the many innovations institut- ed by Mr. McGeough since he took over his pest as our principal was the system of class treasuries. Rather than name a specific amount for dues, each class issued bank books to its members and elected a treas- urer in every home room. Payments were completely voluntary and the amount of the deposits was optional. The balance could be withdrawn at any time. The treas- urers accepted payments during home room periods and recorded the deposits in the in- dividual booklets. The purpose of this new system is to encourage students to save during their sophomore and junior years in order to meet the many expenditures necessary during senior year.

In early September the girls elected the fol- lowing officers: Norma Pickavant, President; Jeanne Farrar, Vice-President; Allison Hiorns, Secretary; and Lucille La Vigne, Treasurer. In October they combined with the other music clubs in arranging a barn dance. Cornstalks, goblins, and witches took possession of the East gym. The high light of the evening was the entertainment provided by Marlene Abbott, Patsy Allan, Lucille La Vigne, and tiny June Ouelette. In May many of the girls participated in the Music Festival at Hope High School in Providence, while the Seniors made their final appearance at the graduation exercises. The Girls’ Glee Club offered marvelous musical training, fun, and fellowship; and we who now leave East will always remember the many hours we have shared together in Room 408. Many thanks. Miss Hosmer. Seventy-two Treble Clef Club Membership in the Treble Clef Club is the apex of musical achievement at East. Girls who wish to pursue choral singing on a more intensive plane than is attained by the Glee Club rehearse each Friday afternoon. The club has presented entertaining arrangements at Christmas assemblies and at the Rhode Island Music Festival ever since it was organized about ten years ago. In May the members participated in the Evening of Music sponsored by all the music clubs of the school. Unlike the Glee Club, which offers its members half a scholas- tic credit, the Treble Clef Club is with- out credit. Its members volunteer simply because they love music. Boys’ Glee Club Every Thursday afternoon the melo- dious voices of the Boys’ Glee Club rang out from Room 408. Under the direction of Mr. Richard T. Garland the members were active dur- ing the 1949-50 season. They made their annual appearance at the Christmas as- sembly where they sang The First Noel” and Silent Night”. They also combined with the Treble Clef Club to sing Twas the Night Before Christmas.” This small group of approximately twenty members made their final appear- ance at the St. Patrick's Day Assembly where they gave a rendition of Ben- demeer’s Stream.” TREBLE CLEF CLUB Left to right: L.

Band So many of the students who chose band as an elective were unable to take it during class periods that rehearsals had to be held every Monday after school. It was a most successful year under the fine direction of Mr. Robert Gray. The band was always enthusiastically received at as- semblies. At football games the members played the school songs in hearty fashion, alternating with the cheerleaders in en- couraging both the team and its supporters. In addition they gave a concert at the Wrentham State School and at the All-State Music Festival held in Providence. Orchestra The School Orchestra, a small but en- thusiastic group, did fine work in the field of music and contributed in no small way to school activities. In addition to participating in the R. I. Congress of Parents and Teachers, in school assemblies, and in the All-State Festi- val held in Providence, the members this year had the opportunity of playing at the dedication exercises of the new Lincoln Avenue School. All performances were under the con- siderate and talented leadership of Mr. Rob- ert Gray. Seventy-four Der Deutschen Verein” Every month to the riotous strains of O du lieber Augustine”, the members of Der Deutschen Verein” met in Room 106 to sing, joke, and to have interesting dis- cussions about German music and culture. These meetings were informal and exhilar- ating in their spirit of fun and friendship. Under the leadership of Miss Esther Hag- strom, the club learned to converse in Ger- man. The March meeting was especially noteworthy, for the group produced a humorous play, Dingelhoofer’s Hut.” The class officers for the past year were as follows: Gerda Stuben, President; Rich- ard Bertini, Vice-President; Wanda Perkow- ski, Secretary; and John Gagnon, Treasurer. Cercle Francais The Cercle Francais opens its member- ship to all who have completed one year of French, or to those of French parentage, who speak the language fluently. Guiding the club during the busy year were the following officers: John Nazarian, President; Carol Gallagher, first Vice-Presi- dent; Joan Carney, second Vice-President; Muriel Bolas, Secretary; and Charles War- burton, Treasurer. With a surplus in the treasury they sent a ten-dollar gift package to Care. Miss Kathrine MacKenzie, the effi- cient and patient adviser, helped our pro- gram committee arrange instructive and en- tertaining meetings. FRENCH CLUB First row (I to r): A. Choquette, C.

Radio Club Guided by its highly informed and enthusiastic adviser. Miss Henrietta C. Brazeau, the Radio Club had a most fruitful and eventful year. Comprising Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors, it had a membership of fifty avid radio fans. At their Tuesday afternoon meetings the group discussed radio and tele- vision techniques, script writing, and appreciation of script material. Guest speakers were Jim Hines, sportscaster at WPJB, and Jack Ellsworth, disc jockey at WFC1. The club’s officers this year included the following: Dwight Douglas, Presi- dent; Jim Mottram, Vice-President; Allison Hiorns, Secretary; and Ed Cohan, Treasurer. In November they began a series of broadcasts at the basketball games. This added color and life to the games and made an even more personal connection be- tween players and fans. The Redjacket Revue”, simulated radio broadcast, was presented in early March. The Club also provided entertainment for the Women’s Club, Parent- Teacher Association, and for the class Parents’ Nights. During Easter vacation they enjoyed their annual trip to Boston where they visited various radio studios, as well as Emerson College and Leland Powers School of Radio. The members of the club wish to extend their thanks to Miss Brazeau for her zeal and effort in stimulating interest in radio at East High. Seventy-six The UNESCO Thinkers To wage war against ignorance and to grow in knowledge and goodness; that is the motto of the UNESCO Thinkers.” Organized only this year at East it is the only club of its kind in Rhode Island and is dedicated to the ideals of UNESCO,” the United Nations Educa- tional Scientific Cultural Organization. The UNESCO” General Program, one of global proportions, aims at Re- construction, Communications, Education, Cultural Interchange, National Sci- ences, and Human and Social Relations. The chib had an extremely successful season. Under the competent guidance of Dr. Benilde W. Leoni, Founder and Faculty Adviser, its members have pre- pared several pamphlets about UNESCO.” The first of these booklets, published by Brown University, was presented to Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt when five senior members of the club visited the United Nations in December. This trip, made by Betty Lou Foy, Constance Bet- ters, Raymond Dumas, Vincent Whalen, and Constance Atherton, was sponsored by the World Affairs Council of Rhode Island. The group spent two nights in New York and spent one full day at Flushing Meadows and Lake Success. Besides the booklet which was presented to Mrs. Roosevelt at the U. N., en- titled the East Senior High School UNESCO Cultural Review, several others have been published. The second booklet about the UNESCO House” in Paris, France, was written by Constance Atherton. Another, now in preparation, is We UNESCO-Thinkers”; it is being written by Betty Lou Foy. Robert O'Brien is preparing Quotations of Wisdom about UNESCO”. The club members are very grateful to Dr. Leoni for her personal guidance and supervision. We sincerely hope that our combined efforts will not have been in vain and that the club will go on to new heights in ’51. The officers of the club are as follows: Betty Lou Foy, President; Raymond Dumas, Vice-President; Constance Bet- ters, Secretary; and Thresa Wazeeka, Treasurer. UNESCO-THINKERS First row ( to r): J.

Organized in 1948, the group is rapidly gaining prominence and import- ance. Meetings were held at the Y.M.C.A. on Monday evenings under the supervision of Miss Hope V. Carey, faculty adviser. The girls planned hayrides, lectures, movies, de- bates, and a formal dance to provide a var- ied program. Ten of the members, accompanied by Miss Carey, spent a week-end in Spring- field attending the Older Girls’ Conference. The officers were as follows: Nancy Welch, President; Lois Dott, Vice-President; Alice Faye MacKenzie, Secretary; Shirley Heald, Treasurer; and Carol Hines, Chap- lain. East Beta Hi-Y Consisting of about twenty members, the East Beta Hi-Y met every Monday night with Reverends Mr. Carol Coffin and Mr. Dudly Bowser as advisers. This past year was a memorable one not only for social ac- tivities but also for service rendered to the members and to the community. During the course of the year, for instance, the club had a series of well-known speakers and a film on Boy and Girl Relations.” Club officers were as follows: Charles Drum- mond, President; John Bowab, Vice-Presi- dent; Jack Renfrew, Secretary; and Paul Reynolds, Treasurer. Seventy-eight Junior Rotarians Due to unusual circumstances, this year only two members of the senior class were chosen to represent East at the meetings of the Rotary Club of Pawtucket. These two boys were really outstanding, however. Dwight was the president of the senior class and an officer in several clubs; Jim was co-editor of the Classbook. The Rotary Club consists of one rep- resentative of each field of business. Every Thursday afternoon these boys enjoyed the cordial, instructive company of the mem- bers at the club meetings. The program of the day was always prefaced by the con- viviality of the dining table. Student Club Membership in the Student Club is open to all senior girls attending local high schools. The club meetings are on Monday afternoons at the Y.W.C.A. The club has had a busy year. Their installation dance attracted 350 people, and the formal which they sponsored at Christmas was also a suc- cess. The group held two suppers, one of which was followed by a treasure hunt. Their meetings were informal, chatty dis- cussions under the direction of Mrs. Scott, their adviser. Officers of the Student Club were as follows: Betty Lou Foy, President; Lois Carpenter, Vice-President; Muriel Bolas, Secretary; Constance Atherton, As- sistant Secretary; and Jean Bisset, Treasurer.

For weeks preceding the Soph Hop this question was uppermost in the minds of student body, for all classes displayed interest. Carol Hines was voted this honor. After Robert Chadwick, class president, placed the crown on the queen’s head, Jim- my Pratt and his orchestra played a special waltz in honor of the two. On a flower-decked throne Queen Carol, attended by members of her court, reigned for a full evening. The court members were as follows: Allison Hiorns, Carol Motyl, Winifred Lam- bert, Patricia Hunt, Constance Dunlavy, and Jane Roy. Junior Prom On the evening of May 6, 1949, the gymnasium of the East High School, be- decked with gay yellow and green streamers, was transformed into a garden of yellow sunflowers. This was the night of nights— our Junior Prom! Gliding dreamily to the sentimental strains of Jimmy Pratt's orchestra, we felt the thrill of achievement, for under the able supervision of Miss Ethel Taylor, our committee had planned our first high school semi-formal dance. Members of the East High P.T.A. thoughtfully took charge of refreshments. Eighty Art Committees Glittering class numerals suspended from the ceiling and huge yellow sunflowers with rich green sprays adorning the walls lent an unusually bright and festive at- mosphere to our Junior Prom. The yellow ceiling and glittering class numerals added to the sparkling gaiety of the scene. The class of ’50 was indebted to Miss Dorothy Johnson for this clever and vibrant motif. As the Redjacket went to press there were no plans for the Senior Reception dec- orations. From uncertain sources came a rumor that a classical setting of ancient Greece would provide the background for the most important social event of the year. Senior Reception After a difficult struggle, the Senior Reception Committee of the Class of 1950 managed to overcome all obstacles and obtain a date on which both the decorations and the orchestra could be secured. The original date had been June 9 and many of the students were bitterly disappointed when it was changed to June 16. However, they proved very co-operative. Upon entering what was formerly the gymnasium, we found ourselves in a replica of ancient Greece. A huge white Trojan horse guarded the entrance. The dark green curtains made the white columns more outstanding; thus we believed it to be a Grecian amphitheater. ART COMMITTEES First row ( to r): M. McEvilly, G. Jones, M. Golish. A. Drozd, P.

Library Club Under the guidance of Miss Irene Carlin, librarian, the Library Club has accomplished a great deal in furthering the educational work of teachers and pupils. Some of the group's many duties are helping pupils carry out their home assignments, stimulating new interest in hobbies, assisting the librarian in pub- licizing the information that the library has, inspiring pupils to do more recrea- tional reading, charging out books, caring for magazines, arranging shelves, pre- paring displays, and last, but not least, making things run more smoothly by keeping the place in order. During Book Week the walls were ablaze with colored book jackets and the tables were laden with bright new books which the Club had helped to arrange. The club also assisted in serving coffee to the teachers as they came in during the day to view the new books. On Career Day in February the members had hundreds of career folders and pamphlets on the walls and racks to assist pupils in their decisions for their future work. At the first senior play the club sold candy to raise funds for the pins to be awarded at the end of the year and for a few extra books for the library. The group had a welcoming party at the beginning of the year for the new members, a Christmas party, and two picnics toward the end of the year. At the welcoming party the new members had an opportunity to see what the club aimed to accomplish and to get acquainted with those who were still in the club from last year. At the Christmas party all members enjoyed games and refreshments in the library. This active club helped make the library a vital force in our school, and not just a storehouse of books. Their labors were towards one goal—making the library of especial value to teachers and pupils and they accomplished that goal. Eighty-two The Man Who Came to Dinner i The Dramatic Society chose a hard task when they decided to present The Man Who Came to Dinner.” Most Easterners were already familiar with this successful Broadway play by Moss Hart and George Kaufman. Naturally the audience would unconsciously compare the efforts of the cast of amateurs with the performances of such polished professionals as Monty Woolley and Bette Davis, whom they saw in the movie of the same title. Despite these barriers, our thespians acquitted themselves beautifully. Dwight Douglas was every bit as sarcastic and ruthless as Woolley in the role of Sheridan Whiteside, the selfish, egotistical author and critic. Nancy Welch was a convincingly sophisticated and capable secretary. The plot revolves around an accident incurred by Whiteside as he was about to leave the home of the Stanleys (Ed Kelley and Janet Curtis). Confined to the house for several weeks after that, he makes life miserable for all the Stanleys, his secretary, his nurse (Beryl Powell), and everyone else with whom he comes in contact. When his secretary, Maggie Cutler, upon whose efficiency he has depended for years, resigns to marry Bert Jefferson (Jim Mottram), a local reporter, Whiteside resorts to low trickery to break up the romance. He sends for actress Lorraine Sheldon (Rosamond Carpenter) to lure Jefferson away from Maggie. Lou Brierly as Beverly Carlton, an old enemy of Lorraine, nearly thwarts these plans by proposing to her in a telephone imitation of Lord Bottomly, the current man in her life. Several zany characters enter during the course of the play. The most im- pressive of these are Banjo (Larry Voyer) and Mrs. Stanley’s sister Harriet (Mary Gilligan), a hatchet murdress. Banjo and Whiteside finally get rid of Lorraine by packing her in a mummy case. Maggie and Bert are reunited. Just as Whiteside leaves the house he slips again, and is carried back to his wheelchair as the curtain descends. We considered this one of the finest productions ever presented on our stage. It combined one of the best comedy scripts ever written, an outstanding cast, and the two best directors any group could ask for—Miss Hope Carey and Mr. Jack Doonan. KIND LADY Hrsf row (I to r): N. Welch, M. Gilligan, G. Mulligan. C. Hines, M. Moore. J. McAlmonc. M. Camac. Second row: D. Douglas, J. Moctram. L. Voyer. L. Brierley. R. Elliot. Kind Lady” Kind Lady,” a psychological play, was chosen by the seniors for their major production. On March thirty-first at eight-fifteen, five hundred people gathered to see the class thespians in their greatest production. As the curtain opens, Mary Herries, a wealthy spinster played by Nancy Welch, is charitably giving aid to an unknown beggar, Henry Abbott, portrayed by Edward Kelly. In a few weeks, he returns under the pretense of selling his oil paintings. He tells Mary he has brought his wife with him to see her magnificent furnishings. His wife, Ada, played by Jane McAlmont, pretends to faint. An accomplice of Henry’s, saying he is a doctor, orders the sick” woman to bed and gives orders not to have her moved from Miss Herries' house. Henry’s friends, the Edwards, come to visit Ada and remain to help her.” Henry knows that Mary has heart trouble and that she needs pills for her energy. By refusing to allow Miss Herries to take her desperately needed medi- cine, he is able to keep her under his command. In this incredible manner, Mary is held prisoner in her own house. She is finally freed when she manages to pass a note telling of her unbelievable captivity to a portrait agent, played by James Mottram, who comes to the Herries’ home. Some of the minor characters added a bit of humor and diversion to the other- wise tense play. Mary Gilligan played a kleptomaniac; Grace Mulligan, a harsh spoken English woman; Louis Brierley, a bold cockney; and Jane McAlmont, a simple, nymph-like girl. Carol Hines played the part of a socialite, and her fiancee was Bob Elliot. Marilyn Moore had an excellent accent as an English maid, and Harry Matthews as a French agent. Martha Camac was one of Mary’s sophisticated friends and Larry Voyer was a quack doctor. Miss Hope V. Carey, our dramatic coach, certainly worked hard for all our plays, but the seniors felt that she contributed extra effort to make our last play the great success that it was. Eighty-six Three One-Act Plays A SUNNY MORNING A Spanish comedy, A Sunny Morn- ing, represented East High School in the R. I. Drama Festival. This play was chosen from the three one-act plays as the best type to represent the school. Gonzolo, a grouchy, old man who is por- trayed by Dwight Douglas, plays opposite Dona Laura, an aged, alert lady, played by Nancy' Welch. Fate brings these two to- gether on the same park bench in Madrid, Spain. Although they are unfriendly at first, they later engage in conversation. As they talk of the past, they realize that they were once lovers. Because of their changed looks they do not admit their true identities to each other but do promise to meet again the next day. Mary Gilligan plays a vivacious maid and Louis Brierley, a sleepy servant. At the R. I. Drama Festival, plays from twelve different schools are presented. The two best ones are chosen to represent Rhode Island in the New England Festival at Con- cord, New Hampshire. Because East High came in third with Hansel and Gretel last year, the cast is working very hard to gain top honors this year. Eighty-seven Three One-Act Plays (Continued) 'CURSE YOU, JACK DALTON-’ by William Braun is a real old-fashioned melodrama provided with a treacherous vil- lain, Egbert Van Horn. Egbert (John Gart- ner) tries to commit the beautiful heroine, Bertha Blair (Joan Carney), to an insane asylum when she foils his plan to marry the rich but ugly society girl, Eloise Dal- ton (Madeline Schifino). Bertha, a maid at the Dalton's mansion, recognizes Van Horn as the scoundrel who ruined her brother Richard (Robert Mellucci) and almost forced her to marry him. Because Egbert is not suspected by the manly hero, Jack Dal- ton (Everett Pearson), in love with Ber- tha, or his aristocratic and shallow mother (Janet Curtis), it looks as if Egbert may have his way. Aided further in his scheme by Anna Alvardo (Rosamond Carpenter), who hates Bertha and is determined to marry Jack, Egbert completes his last plans to spirit Bertha from the house. Alas, all hope for the heroine seems lost! Fate, how- ever, intervenes in the form of Richard, who has been trailing Van Horn for years. The heroine is saved! Egbert and Anna are taken to the police by Richard at the point of a gun; and Bertha and Jack announce their love for each other. They are blessed by Mrs. Dalton and live happily ever after. This illustrious one-act play was directed by Robert Boucher, assisted by Joe Pimental. ' FIREMAN, SAVE MY CHILD” Old fashioned melodrama at its best. Never before has the stage presented such a ruthless villain as Archibald Quingle (Nor- man McKettrick), such a manly hero as Chester Quingle (Robert Bolton), or such an innocent heroine as Daisy Dorrance (Alicefaye MacKenzie). Setting off this topnotch billing is a star studded cast in the persons of the typical village gossip, Sally Crossbury (Sandra Doak), the adoring mother, Mrs. Quingle (Alicia Drozd), the efficient secretary (Carolyn Potts), the cold but painfully truthful maid, Myrtle Jones (Barbara Loxom), and last but not least. Myrtle's freckled-faced boy friend, Bing Barnes (Robert Morris). Could you ask for more? Yes, and that is just what you get. Such an intriguing plot! Archibald Quingle has stolen money from the mill and blamed it on his absent brother, Chester. Chester’s unexpected return from the city upsets all Archibald’s plans to succeed and marry the fair Daisy. Immediately he sets to work to destroy his brother. This he does by hypnotizing Myrtle to make her say she saw Chester steal his mother’s money. The entrance of his secretary, Mary Lawson, whom he has hypnotized, turns the tides. Breaking the spell in an accident she rushes to expose the villain. Defeated, Archibald leaves, swearing that he shall do as he pleases henceforth. At last it is revealed that Archibald is not really any kin to the Quingles, and everyone breathes a sigh of re- lief and happiness. The characters and plot can be summed up in a word—sensational.

Basketball Although this year’s Redjacket five failed for the first time in many years to make the state playoffs, they remained in contention to the season's climax. Displaying the same fighting spirit which was prevalent in other more successful seasons, our ’Jacket hoopsters didn’t have the breaks necessary to win their many close ball games. They opened their campaign by entertaining an inferior Cumberland five which they easily decisioned. In this game Coach Art Nooney displayed num- erous combinations, due to the late arrival of several football players who pre- viously had had only two weeks of practice. Having the unfortunate position of opening their Class A festivities against the potential league champs, La Salle, East’s untried hoopsters lost by 13 points at the winners’ gym. During the remainder of the season the ’Jacket courtmen, considered only a mediocre team following the La Salle defeat, suddenly came to life and raised havoc with the league’s top teams. By midseason the Redjackets were considered, by every team they faced, a brilliant aggregation capable of upsetting anyone. They proved this by beating East Providence and West, two of Class A’s representatives in the state playoffs, and by losing to powerful La- Salle in a return match by only a few points. The top rivalry of the local scene has always been the East-West series and the two games this year were no exception. In tbe first contest played at West dur- ing the Christmas vacation, the Rangers won 34-33 on a foul toss in the final second of play. The scene then shifted to the East court where a capacity crowd saw the Redjackets, following a brilliant third period rally, top the Westerners, 38-36. Coach Art Nooney deserves sincere congratulations for his inspiring leader- ship throughout the entire season. Ninety-two THE SWIMMING TEAM First row ( to r): W. Fregeau, F. Merchel, D. McIntyre, E.

Franklin, T. Rudolph. H. Peace. B. Sullivan, R. L. Brown. H. Read. R. Owen. Mgr. Swimming Team Paced by several outstanding veteran swimmers, the Redjacket swimming team had a very successful season. Coach Max Read’s natators were exceptionally skilled in their individual events, and enjoyed an undefeated campaign in dual meets. • With brilliant backstroker Ben” Franklin, speedy freestylers Lou Brierley, Ralph Brisco, Bob O’Brien, and Ed McDonald, ace diver Ed Carberry, and ver- satile Frank Kouble displaying consistent success, the ’Jacket mermen encountered little difficulty in dual meets. They were exceptionally brilliant against the local rivals, West and St. Raphael, trouncing both convincingly, and consequently an- nexing the city title to their long list of triumphs. Ninety-four Football T rack Faced with the difficult task of playing schools of greater enrollment, the East High football team had a disastrous season. Un- der the guidance of Donat Maynard, who was making his initial appearance at the helm of the 'Jackets, East fought valiantly against heavier Class A opponents. The Redjackets made their initial ap- pearance of the year a 14-6 triumph over their crosstown rival. West High. In this game, the 'Jackets launched a terrific at- tack which was never equaled again throughout the season. With a considerable number of veteran trackmen returning, the outlook for a suc- cessful season on the cinders was bright. Always a threat to stronger opposition, the 'Jacket trackmen had the necessary founda- tion of outstanding seniors, talented juniors, and promising sophomores to score heavily against all opponents. Most promising of the returning sen- iors were miler Harry Lancaster and shot- putter Bob Chadwick. Both had finished high in state meets last year while juniors, and it was expected they would form the nucleus for the Max Read’s '50 Redjackets. FOOTBALL First row {I to r): M. Vecoli, G.

ATHLETIC COUNCIL The Athletic Council, although not too active, has the ruling hand when it comes to the distribution of athletic awards. They also decide what the qualifications for re- ceiving the letters should be and if the names submitted pass all the requirements. The board is comprised of the follow- ing student members: Robert Chadwick, President; John Collins, Vice-President; and Mary Gilligan, Secretarv. Mr. MeGeough, Mr. Nooney, and Mr. Read were the faculty consultants. CHEERLEADERS Although some of our teams had an unsuccessful year, our cheerleaders helped to keep the morale of the students and players at a high level. With their beau- tiful new white jackets and red skirts they were a dazzling spectacle on the football field and basketball court. They deserved and were accorded high praise for their enthusiasm and loyalty at a time when both were needed so badly. To cheer a winning team is easy; to support losers requires a deep understanding and appreciation of the players' efforts. East took great pride in their leaders, captained by Martha Collins. Ninety-six GIRLS’ SWIMMING TEAM Swimming was not so popular as it was in previous years. This was indicated by the fact that only five Senior girls swam in the inter-class meet. Contrary to prin- ciples, the Sophomores came out as the vic- tors, the juniors took second place, while the Seniors valiantly brought up the rear. Captain Anna Mae Choquette did her best to urge the Senior girls on, but the team was too small and too weak. GIRLS’ BADMINTON Girls’ Badminton was on the upward swing this year. Miss Furbish and Miss Taylor spent many gym periods in teach- ing the girls the various techniques of the game. These energetic teachers also gave many valuable lessons to girls who were willing to come to school at eight o’clock in the morning. The girls played a number of games in a tournament to determine who would be the school champion. Although the tourna- ment had not taken place when this article was written, it w'as supposed that Jeanne Farrar would be most likely to walk away with the championship, as she had been champion of her class for the two previous years.

GIRLS' BASKETBALL Basketball, an all-time favorite for girls, once again brought hoards of girls to the gym to form teams and compete for the school chamoionship. The senior school champions, captain- ed by Fay Neil, were undefeated. They played well against low and high-scoring teams. Each girl knew her position and played it well, causing the Kuklapolitans to emerge victorious. Although girls’ basketball is not con- sidered as exciting as boys' basketball, it is interesting and exciting to the participants. Many of the encounters which are not con- sidered strenuous turn out to be hard fought battles. VOLLEYBALL Volleyball, as usual, held an outstand- ing place in the girls' sports curriculum. Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors all turn- ed out to play their favorite game and also to earn ten points toward their athletic awards. The girls invaded the gym every Tuesday and Thursday nights throughout the season, and all fought hard for the cov- eted championship. The Goffettes, the sen- ior champions, were outstanding in every game. They defeated all comers for the third consecutive year, thus setting a rec- ord for all teams that might follow.
