We realize that this book is not without its errors and its omissions, but it is a more complete attempt to uncover the activities of not only the Senior Class but of the whole school. It rep- resents the many long, tiresome hours spent finding ways to finance the undertaking, planning, writing and re-Writing the material for this book. I wish to voice my sincere thanks to the staff and students for their untiring efforts. Our thanks also to the teachers who have helped in many, many ways.

These boys constituted the new seventh grade, the babies of Exeter High, resembling so many frightened chicks which Miss Masterman immediately sheltered beneath her protecting wing. In that homeroom, six years ago, our illustrious class of '46 was born. We thrived in Miss Masterman's science and math classes, where we were informed daily, I ccm't work in a noise and I know you can't either! I We soaked up Mrs. MacNabb's English and History and made great progress in French as we went about the building Bonjouring and Au revoiringf' In the manual training shop Mr. Linscott and his suc- cessor, Mr. Anderson, tried vainly to make carpenters of us. So great was our enjoyment of the novelty and excitement of our first year at Exeter High, that we were somewhat disheartened to discover the school year had slipped by so fast and that we would be forced to ad- journ for the summer months. Chapter II - Eighth Graders In the following September, for various and sundry reasons, our num- ber was decreased by four. Although there were only fifty-three of us, Mrs. MacNabb, our new homeroom teacher, was unable to house us all in the confines of her room, so several were asked again to make Miss Master- man's room their home. This year was to be our most strenuous, as Mrs. MacNabb undertook to make us worthy of seats in the main room as Fresh- men. Our courses were to be the same as the previous year but somewhat intensified. However, true love will always find a way, thus our French teacher left us. In place of French, geography was introduced under a new and vivacious lady teacher. It was a very popular course. During this year Mr. Anderson learned that there were few carpenters amongst us. Realization that this was the last year with him for many of us gave him courage to remain. Having at least learned from Mrs. MacNabb that Knowledge without character is dangerous, we ended this difficult year. Chapter III - Freshmen Although we were deemed the noisiest class in the school and our greatest lessons were learned in the headmaster's office, forty-three of us did manage to become Freshmen. This year the class gained in all fields as twelve boys from St. Michael's School joined us. 1946 EXETER HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK 11 Now we were babies again, babies of the main room. Our courses of study were fewer but no easier, and there was no longer a guiding hand to help us along the precarious way. The year witnessed several changes of faculty. Mr. Coleman began as our new and handsome headmaster. He was extremely popular at the Robinson Seminary. We learned now that we had many promising athletes in our midst, as we were well represented in baseball and football. When our Freshmen year came to a close, a great growth could be noticed in our members: minds could be distinguished as having either classical or technical interests, conduct was on a higher plane, and peach- fuzz was cropping out on several chins. Chapter IV - Sophomores Now the class of '46 were Sophomores, wise fools, tenth-graders. As the Juniors this year were moved from the main room to a private home- room, we were the first sophomores to be masters of the main room. This year Spanish was introduced in the curriculum, a subject taken eagerly by many Sophomores, who expected to be turned out as dashing Spaniards or bull fighters within six months. Other subjects were carried on as usual, and day by day assignments were always correctly prepared. The Sophomore Hop marked the start of our notorious social career. It was a tremendous success financially as well as socially. This financial success gave us the incentive to try again and our May Dance also went over well. Because we had representatives in all sports, it was quite apparent that our class athletes were becoming indispensable. At the close of the year we decided that we were no fools, as our title implied, for we had intelligence, good looks, and a fair bank account. Chapter V - Juniors ' Shouts of Treason I echoed through the building as we, in our Junior year, lost the homeroom we had expected. The private homeroom went to the Freshmen. This year thirty of us were again masters of the main room and in- cidentally rulers of the entire student body. Although our studies were becoming more difficult, they received, nevertheless, our undivided atten- tion. In May, 1945, our Junior Prom, the most outstanding dance for years, brought a capacity crowd to the High School auditorium. Everyone had a wonderful time, and the receipts were extremely good. Victories in the sporting field that year were well paid for by members of our class. - Continued on Page 95 12 EXETER HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK 1946 BEAIRSTO, Norman Edward Stratham, N. H.

Now that we've won peace I don't particularly care how we keep it, and history shows people seem only to understand force. Bill Cooper: The draft? Phooie! WHAT ARE YOUR PLANS FOR COLLEGE? Joseph Desroches: I'm not planning to go to college. But I hope to go to a trade school to learn a trade. Gordon Standish: I'm not sure. Clarence Carroll: I'm not making any plans for college.

IN MEMORIAM Born in Exeter on May 6, 1927, and a member of the class of 19-46, Frank Jankowski was accidentally shot and killed while deer hunting in Nottingham on December 1, 1943. An exceedingly popular boy, he was president of our class, played tackle on the football team, and was an honor student. 28 EXETER HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK 1946 i, K SENIOR PLAY CAST Left to Right: C.

It's bad enough when he misses the important audition with Felix Heidler, famous music critic. His music teacher, Miss Hepplewhite, has arranged the ap- pointment with Mrs. Ellington-Lewis, a prominent socialite, but Herbert doesn't show up. When he does arrive, it is with Vincent, his partner in misfortune, two twelve-foot planks, and many excuses. The music critics and Mrs. Lewis, disgusted and indignant, leave when Herbert injures his fingers with the planks. The lumber is for a float the boys are building. They have worked hard to copy plans for the new high school, and its only fault is that it repeatedly collapses during the parade to the merriment of all but Mr. Tierney, the contractor for the school, who sees this as an asper- sion on his professional reputation, since Herbert's father is also a contrac- tor. For a time things look very dark with Mr. Farnsworth, Vincent's pro- fessor father, and Miss Arnold of the Chamber of Commerce siding with Tierney against Mr. Rains. All is made right, however, when Tierney is exposed as a crook and the boys are hailed as the city's saviors. Herbert gets another chance to play for Mr. Heidler because of the efforts of Jean Bressart, Herbert's Miss Moonlight. The senior classes of R. F. S. and E. H. S. combined to present the very successful Moonlight for Herbert. Many thanks are due to our director and patient coach, Miss Irene Winn, who can take a lot of credit for the success of the undertaking. 30 EXETER HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK 1946 CLASS PROPHECY Throughout the past year in our aeronautics class we have been study- ing weather forecasting, and it interested me so much that I became a meteorologist, but that is beside the point. I am sure you all are anxious to hear what has happened and is now happening to the class of '46, By a strange coincidence I happened to have Word of all of them on the same day, and this is how it happened. One morning as I was going out I ran into Water Commissioner Bob Barker, who, to find water employs the ancient and approved method - divining rod. He is continually bothered by Norman Bearisto, now a famous professor of Physics, who keeps telling him that it is against the Law of Physics. While talking to these old classmates of mine I learned that Clif Davis tried boxing as a profession but failed because after hitting his opponent just once, Clif would stop. His kind heart would not let him strike the poor fellow again because it hurt him so much. I also learned that a much changed Clarence Carroll will be a successful player-manager of the House of David. His success is due to a new hid- den ball trick, which involves the use of his three-foot beard. I was also told that Earlikins Wiggin is in danger of going Nets over his profession, smelt fishing. I had with me a late report from La Guardia Field, New York, which shows that the Tufts really know their flowers, even the little flower, for whom the field was named. They have followed, indirectly, in his footsteps and are unique in being the only mayor who can appear in two places at the same time - a distinct political advantage. Leaving my friends, I journeyed to the thriving metropolis of Stratham where I intended to consult Joe Desroches, a prominent meteorologist, who makes all his observations early in the morning, which is made necessary by his Holy .... chicken farming. I saw a row of farm buildings, which I learned from Joe were owned by former classmates, Ernest Wiggin and Irving Spencer. Across the dooryard of the first farm I saw a set of tire tracks and small bits of a certain commodity which is much used on gardens in this vicinity - fertilizer. The next set of buildings could more readily be described as cow barns than farm buildings. From the windows, doors, ventilators, and various other apertures in the largest of these barns was issuing - guess what? No, you're wrong. It wasn't what you thought it was. It was Spencer's golden voice, singing to his cows- contented cows, that is. Returning home I found on my desk beside a sequence report from Washington a letter from Lee Fredette, 34th assistant adviser to the Chief of Staff for the Waves. 1946 EXETER HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK 31 As I was reading Lee's letter, the telephone rang. Upon answering it I received word that a cyclone was approaching from the south. Oh, speaking of big winds, I find that Carleton Eldredge is now a success in Yokel Politics. His public ofiice is Special Assistant Tax Collector, which is just another way of saying dog catcher. After receiving this call and sending out storm warnings, I decided to go to the nearest trout stream for a little relaxation. As I was driving through town, the sound of a police whistle made me pull to a stop, and I found myself facing the long arm of the law. It was, however, only Paul Eno, now Chief of Police. He wanted to know if I had seen the latest de- tective magazines which he thought gave him some useful clues on a crime recently committed in town. While we were talking I learned that Dick Rock will be leading the orchestra at the Metropolitan Opera and singing for him will be Standish. And we hope no screams of agony result from this combination. I also learned that Dan Fowler is soon to run in the Arena in Boston. He is now a famous miler, having had much practice on the way to school. As I started away from Paul I passed the new theater which was built by Richard Dupre and Sons, carpenters extraordinary. The owner of which is John Monaghan, who is still the best dressed member of the class of '46. Bold letters above the entrance proclaim that now showing is Burt Horne, the Van Johnson of '56, in Twelve Girls and a Sailor. It might be well to note that Burt, God's gift to the women, is still a bachelor, while Bashful Bill Bernier has been married seven times and has accumulated the grand total of fourteen children. On the way home from the brook I stopped to make some purchases in town, and as I passed in front of the bank I heard the familiar, Can you spare a dime, Mac ? Turning I was startled to see the member of our class voted most likely to succeed - Danny Heartz. I took Danny home with me and on the way I learned that he has been kept alive the last few months only through the generosity of Father Stanley, who now presides over a nearby monastery. As I was preparing supper, Danny called my attention to an article on the sports page, which told of the purchase of Kraseski and Mazalewski by the Boston Yanks. These two have been starring for the Fighting Irish of Notre Dame. After supper I set out for the airport, taking Danny with me. I had to take a weather report to Bob Lannon, who is a pilot for a large airline. He learned his trade in the Naval Air Corps, where he rose to a high rank. So you see all of us are more or less of a success in our chosen fields. Which now brings me to the well-worn words, The End. 32 EXETER HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK 1946 WILL - CLASS OF '46 We the Class of 1946 of Exeter High School, in the town of Exeter, County of Rockingham, State of New Hampshire, being of unsound mind and body, do make, publish, and declare this to be our last will and testa- ment.

Approxi- mately thirty of us highly esteemed eleventh graders had at that time little idea of how truly extraordinary we were. We were to be respected by the teachers for our brilliance and common sense, also, we would gain the ad- miration of the underclassmen for our enterprise and achievements. Then, what is also quite gratifying is that even those high and mighty seniors would realize our small-time greatness. Mischievous? Mercy no! Did we ever dream of devouring the seniors' tasty lunches, or would we even think about smuggling tools into their room to take apart their desks? Did we gang up on them and hurl their books downstairs? Did we? .... fHeh, cruel little beasts, weren't we ?J Our pranks were not a full time job, however, as a few of us attained the honor roll. We had two representatives in the Merrill Prize Speaking Contest, and even the teachers commented about our ambition and industry. We will long be remembered in E. H. S. for our success in our extra- curricular activities: A There were our dances - all two of 'em. What's more, our class bas- ketball team came in fourth in the inter-school tournament. fThere were three other teams.J And what greatness we displayed on the athletic field! We had, among the twenty candidates for basketball this fall, two whole representatives. Ah, but don't be deceived! Our few representatives on the honor roll, the small number of dances we held, and our lack of bountiful athletic material for basketball and baseball is hardly a veritable picture of our true nature, for what we did accomplish, we accomplished to perfection. Our ingenuity and cleverness were shown at our fall dance and our Junior Prom. They were howling successes. Our aggressiveness was shown on the football field, where Mr. Hatch's varsity squad tolerated many, many juniors. Our mere two basketball men were aces, and like- wise are our stars on the baseball diamond. As a matter of fact, in school, at home, on the street, or wherever else a Junior of '46 would happen to be, he can be detected by his smug air: for what other class and what other persons have accomplished in such fine fashion as much as all of us Juniors, the class of '47 ?

S Ab 1946 EXETER HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK 37 SOPHOMORES On the first day of school after our summer vacation no less than forty sophomores were enrolled. Due to circumstances beyond Mr. Harriman's control there remain approximately thirty-seven. Mr. Harriman took charge of our first class meeting for the election of officers. Miss Winn was overwhelmingly elected class adviser. The class officers are: Carl Winch, Ralph Rowell, Anthony Lochg and elected to the Student Council were Rowell and Loch. Almost from the very first day of school the Sophomore class was the guiding light for the Freshman class. And just trying to be helpful the Sophomores rule with an iron handg this method saves the Juniors the trouble of beating up any more innocent people. At our second class meeting we chose the committee for our Hop. Since Miss Winn was busy with the Senior play, Mr. Rowe volunteered to be a substitute for her. On November 21 we staged one of the best hops seen in the school. Unlike the ones before it, the dance was a success financially as well as socially. Soon after a committee was selected to choose our class rings. The class voted on the ring which it wanted and the orders were taken. Since then our rings have arrived and they are now being sported by the fellows who aren't tangled up with women. Recently the Sophomores had charge of an assembly which proved to be one of the best of the year as far as originality was concerned. Much credit is due to Miss Winn for this masterpiece. On the gridiron no less than seven whole Sophomores made the team, and the lucky basketball team had five of our remarkable number . . . To end this history all we need to say is that our arms are a bit tired from patting ourselves on the back, but anyone will have to admit that we are pretty good.

H. S. No class outdid us in representatives on the gridiron or the basketball court. Yes, the upper classmen have all sorts of excuses to offer but the fact remains - WE ARE THE INTRA- MURAL CHAMPS OF 1946. The second week of school Mr. Harriman conducted our first class meeting at which we unanimously elected Mr. Hatch our class adviser. Class oiiicers were elected as follows: President, J. Costello, vice-president, R. Ramsdellg and secretary-treasurer, R. MacDonald. G. St. Amour and J. Costello were chosen to represent us in the Student Council. Mem- bers of our talented class have found their way into many other student organizations and a large percentage of the class attained the honor roll. Even though the class is divided into two homerooms, we feel very much like a group and no other class has the spirit that the class of '49 has.

Coop sent A b 1946 EXETER HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK 41 EIGI-ITH GRADE In September, 1945, forty-two boys gathered together to form the eighth grade of the Exeter High School, glad that we were no longer the babies of the place. We began our year with our new headmaster, Mr. Harriman, several new teachers, and our new homeroom teacher, Mrs. MacNabb. At this stage of the game she says that we show signs occa- sionally of really growing up, at last. One of our first duties was to elect class ofiicers which we did as fol- lows: President and member of the Student Council, Allen Wrightg vice- president, Christopher Roweg secretary, Phillip Stockbridgeg and treas- urer, Richard London. We did a pretty good job in the line of sports this year. Eleven mem- bers of our class made the team and we played two games with the Acad- emy Light teams. Then along came basketball. Ten boys in our class made this team. We played two games with Hampton, Portsmouth, and St. Michael's, and won the last one. Not too good a showing, but we did have a lot of fun. Then it was time to throw our gala Christmas party, the first peace- time one in years. As usual we had the party with the seventh grade with Mr. Rowe playing the part of jolly St. Nick. I'm sure we set a new record for the amount of food consumed at one little party, too. We had a class poll with some pretty startling results. It was voted that the best all around boy is Allen Wright, who has a close runner-up in Christopher Rowe. There were several in our class who are quite busi- ness-like, but Richard London was chosen the most promising business- man. There isn't anyone in our class who is really a clown, but sometimes we do enjoy the antics of Edward Gilmore, Clark Jacobs and Phillip Stock- bridge. In our class there are several babies, but Ronald Coleman takes the cake, although he has grown up a bit since last year. The best-behaved boy in the class is Sydney Grove, and the most promising athletes were Christopher Rowe and Merton Jenkins. In January the seventh and eighth grades put on an essembly, The Evolution of Jazz. Every boy took part in it. Christopher Rowe and Albert McGonagle were very good on a bicycle built for two. Clark Jacobs sang and acted out Darktown Strutter's Ball. We have had many good times together this year under the guiding hand of Mrs. MacNabb. She has even taught us many things which aren't in our lesson books. I'm sure we will remember our eighth grade days with pleasure.

Chu-k, 1946 EXETER HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK 43 SEVENTH GRADE In September, 1945, forty boys from the School Street School in Exe- ter, from Newfields, Stratham, and Brentwood very timidly found their way into Exeter High School. We were just a group of mischievous young- sters, but after much mothering and many lectures, Miss Masterman had us tamed quite a bit. That is, most of us. We had just settled down to work when along came football. For some reason only a few boys went out for this sport. I guess we hadn't quite grown up by that time. But by the time basketball season came along three boys made the team and we are very proud of them for they helped to win a game or two. In December, just before school closed for the holidays, we had our annual Christmas party with the eighth grade. We had a tree and every- body received a gift. Amid the cakes and cookies and ice cream, Mr. Rowe played the part of St. Nick. We took part in many of the assembly programs and the talents of sev- eral of our classmates were quite evident. Our class baby has turned out to be Sandy Smith, and that boy, Robert Leary, has proved to be quite a pest. We have our own circus in Charles Pantelakos, and our big story- teller is Richard Jackson. We don't hear much 'more than a peep from Kenneth Stevens but he certainly has done a fine job. Taken altogether we are a pretty fine class. SEVENTH GRADE f: J. Dodge, Sffrrv II ms, P 'cside W.

The object of this program is to give the student body some sort of diversion as well as to unearth any hidden talent which, by some small chance of fate, might be wandering about the building unnoticed. So far this year no John Barrymore or Jose Iturbi has been discovered but these assemblies have been a constant source of amusement and interest to both actors and audience. At first the programs were merely singing songs together, but as time went by the students themselves put on some excellent shows. They ranged from lectures to wrestling matches, to mock radio programs. The radio program, put on by the chemistry class is the picture above, taken during the hour of nonsence, which began with a foolish jingle and ended with some fine music by Dick Rock's orchestra. Quite a bit of effort has been put into these programs by the various student organizations, and the whole school has had a lot of pleasure watching them. From a small beginning these programs have grown into an indispensable part of High School life. The school heartily thanks all those who in any way took part in the programs. That's another way of saying the student body thanks the student body. STUDENT COUNCIL I For the second consecutive year there has been organized in Exeter High School a group of boys representing the whole student body, known as the Student Council. It is their job to serve with their headmaster as mediators between the faculty and the rest of the school.

Their reactions towards one undertaking' or another represent those of the student body as a whole, and many times decisions are made by the Council for the benefit of the school. In short, through the Council the students can be better understood by the faculty who in turn are better able to understand our problems. This year the Council has ironed out many problems which were not too pleasant for the student. First of all it arranged a social calendar by which dates are set for dances and other events to be held in the school auditorium. Then it accepted Mr. Harriman's ine plan to alter the system for choosing managers for the various teams. The plan is now working very successfully. The Council also organized a football rally and a bas- ketball assembly. Perhaps the most significant accomplishment of this year's Council, however, is the adoption of the assembly programs. The members were at first a bit skeptical about the whole thing, but the program was an im- mediate success on its first trial. Now, much to the enjoyment of the school, a show is put on every week by some group of junior hams. Members of the Council are chosen by their classmates. The Senior 48 EXETER HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK 1946 and Junior classes have three members, the tenth and ninth grades two, and the junior high classes but one apiece. This year the trio of officers chosen to lead the group were: Burton Horne, Clarence Carroll and Ber- nard Brisson. THE HISTORY CLUB When peace came it was a joy to the History Club! With the return of peacetime living our History Club began the year with plans to return to its regular activities. But our schedule of classes made it impossible to have regular meetings. However, we met occasionally and on November 7th we made a trip to Salem, Mass. Among the places we visited were the House of Seven Gables, Peabody Museum, Pioneer Village, the old Witch Jail, and Gallows Hill. It was wonderful to travel once more by bus. Russell Call, a former member of our club, was very helpful as our bus driver. Now it has been arranged for us to have a regular time for holding our meetings. We now are learning about and planning to visit historical places in Exeter. By the time you read this we hope to have visited Lexington and Concord, Mass., and also Concord, N. H. On February 25th we enjoyed a visit from a former president of this club in 1936, Irving Brewster. He has been in the Signal Corps of the Army and was in Belgium at the time of the Battle of the Bulge. He gave us a most interesting talk on his experiences. Messages have come back to us from former History Club members all over the world, in China, Japan, Africa, Germany, France, England, and Italy, telling of their interesting travels and urging us to carry on our interesting work.

The idea was accepted by us teen-agers with extreme delight and enthusiasm, for at last we could assemble and have joint interest in a place other than school. Our place of assembly is located in the Legion hall, which is opened for our gathering from 7:30 to 11 P. M. on 'Saturday nights. A juke box has been provided and ample room for dancing is avail- able. The dance fioor itself is surrounded by card tablesg also, there are pool and ping-pong tables for our enjoyment. From each class in Exeter High and the Robinson Female Seminary there is one representative to the executive body of our canteen. This par- ticular body of students do not actually run the canteen, but, they merely offer suggestions for improvements there. A teen-newspaper, the Canteen Bugle, was dreamed up, and now this periodical of gossip, sports articles and general news that interests us adolescents blows once a month. . The canteen along with the Canteen Bugle may appear as insignificant accomplishments to many oldsters, but to us in high school they have con- tributed many hours of happiness and enjoyment. We also hope that their presence in Exeter will not be just a one year's stand, for coming classes of teenagers will also need the same enjoyment and entertainment which we are now accepting so readily. IN TRAMURAL BASKETBALL The outcome of this year's intramural games found the freshmen champions, with the seniors close seconds. In the opening game the fresh- men trounced the seniors by the score of 37-20. The sophomores took over the juniors to the tune of 27-16. The second series of games were a little more exciting. This time the seniors nosed out the sophomores, 16-14. The freshmen took another easy victory over the juniors, the result being, 36-20. In the final games the seniors were again victorious, this time over the juniors, 33-15. The freshmen kept a clean slate by trimming the sopho- mores, 31-14. 151116 l'lXI'l'l'I'lK HIGH SVIIOUL YEAR HOOK 51 Many dances sparked the social calendar this year, scones from one of whlch are plctured above. 52 EXETER HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK 1946 MERRILL PRIZE SPEAKING Left to Right-G.

Captain Bill Bernier and his boys came back to school a few days earlier than the rest of the herd to put in a couple of extra practice sessions, and the results speak for themselves: four wins, two losses, one tie, and one slaughter Qfor our sidej. The first game with Somersworth was played away and like most first games, it wasn't very good. Exeter threatened several times during the game but could not score until the fourth period. The score, which should have been up in the 60's, was held down to a mere 6 to 03 Somers- worth on the short end of the deal. Then things went from bad to worse. The following week Exeter took on Traip Academy and the latter calmly proceeded to wipe up the field with the opposition. This was all very dis- couraging and when the smoke had cleared, Exeter was the proud owner of one defeat. Seriously though, the Traip game was a heartbreaker for Exeter. The team played a good game, tying the score twice, but that one just wasn't meant for us. By the time the Berwick Academy - Berwick from Maine, that is - game was played, Exeter was finally turning into a plenty smooth aggrega- tion. And why shouldn't it? There was a lot of talent on that team. This game ended in a tie after an Exeter touchdown had been called back. The team showed a lot of spark in this game and the next week, in a game against St. Ignatius, Exeter really hit its stride. St. Ignatius, another Maine team, couldn't do anything when they had the ball, but Exeter did plenty with it and ran up a score of 21-0. Then the boys spent a very profitable afternoon up in Kennebunk, Maine. The Bunkies should have stayed in bed because they didn't have much luck trying to stop a hot Exe- ter team. It didn't take long for the fans to figure out who was going to win that game, and Mr. Hatch showed them an Exeter team at its best. The howling mob came back on the bus screaming about a 14-0 victory, or something. Pinkerton was the next victim of the Exeter steamroller, although when the Pinkerton team walked out onto the field they didn't look like any pushover. I-yi-yi, dey vas big! It looked like somebody let eleven gorillas loose. But in this game it was a case of brain over brawn, and a fast Exeter team walked off with another win to the tune of 13-6. All good things must come to an end, so St. John's put a stop to our winning streak. St. John's was supposed to be the big noise in the state as far as football was concerned and they came to Exeter for a breather game. The home team took the wind out of the Concord boys' sails a few times, and instead of breathing deeply, St. John was fighting for its life. FOOTBALL SQUAD Bernier, Capfaivzg W. Bernier e, B.

But they took the laurels home with them anyway, along with 21 pointsg Exeter was satisfied with 8. Maybe moral victories aren't worth too much, but Exeter surely had a honey of a one that afternoon. Then came the last game of the season, and with Hampton too. They call the game those two played - they called it football, but from the spec- tators' point of view it looked more like a track meet. The Hampton boys had cleat marks right up their backsg they spent most of their time on the ground you see, and Exeter had a scoring holiday. Of course we hated to run up the score of 44-0, but we did it anyway. With the season officially over, Mr. Hatch and his mob had the right to pat themselves on the back, for both had done a fine job - such a fine job that the Booster Club threw a banquet for the team. Next year's team is going to miss some of the old stand-bys: Captain Bill is going to graduate and so are Burt 'n' Wig 'n' Claire 'n' Dig 'n' Amos 'n' Barks 'n' Whitey 'n' Spence 'n' Cliff - all a pretty swell gang. I'm sure they all wish Captain-elect George Hagen and Coach Hatch all the luck in the world during the 1947 season. BASKETBALL 1946 EXETER HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK 59 BASKETBALL It was late in the fall when Mr. Harriman issued the call, Cand not for Phillip Morris eitherb. Soon the auditorium was echoing to the patter of little feet - and the basketball season was on. Look out! Through the season, this great team collected so many laurel wreaths they could have thatched a roof, but that is neither here nor there. Before we list the trophies, victories, team honors, etc., let us first tell you what happened during the season itself. The team started things moving by murdering Epping 48-185 the score explains that game easily enough. Pinkerton was a little rougher in every sense of the word, but Captain Carroll paced his boys through a closie 27-24. After that tough game you should think the team could enjoy a quiet bus ride home. But no! The motor fell out of the bus. While the team was waiting for the driver to wind up a new rubber band, they wandered around the town - enjoying the scenery. CI think her name is Maizie.J Anyway, 'twas on this cold, dark night that the now famous Mr, Harriman and the car episode took place. What were the fellows doing in the car? Listening to the radio, of course. The Alumni team went down to defeat, 34-30 - Muzzy did well in this game. Exeter went into the Amesbury game a decided underdog. I can't figure that one out because Exeter won, 53-20. Some underdog! And San- born went the way of all who tried to stop this Exeter team, which was getting better every day - they lost, poor fellows, 48-23. Bob Horne tossed in twenty-eight points during the evening's proceedings. When the score of a basketball game is 52-31, either one team is a lemon, or one is awfully good. I prefer to think the latter about the Exeter quintet during the Hampton game. But then, Exeter always hates to beat Hampton at anything. Next came Traip - they tried, too. The score was 48-385 seven straight so far. Burt Horne, Bob's big brudder, highlighted the Newmarket game. While Exeter won, 40-21, Burt was tossing in bas- kets from the middle of the floor. Exeter and Somersworth were tied for the League leadership when this game was played, so Exeter broke up the tie to the tune of 58-21. Ouch, Somersworth! A return engagement with Sanborn proved just as disas- trous for them as before. The score of this one was 47-20. The next game was a honey. Punchard, having an open date, invited the team to come down for a friendly game. Exeter remained quite friendly while beating them, 35-14, but as one fan remarked, It was an indoor football game! Rough? Naw, nuttin' like that. ' Hampton asked for it again and got it, 43-24. Exeter's forward wall of Bernier, Horne and Carroll racked up thirty points.

It was a good hard game but Exe- ter finally came out on top, 39-32. Game number thirteen was almost the unlucky one. Maybe the team was tired, but they only beat Epping this time, 28-15. However, hang onto your chapeau, the team hit an all time high of sixty C603 points in their next game with Newmarket. Newmar- ket, who only got 38 points, wondered why the Exeter score board didn't have room for a three-figure score. Exeter had no trouble in the next three games before the tournament, beating Somersworth twice, 48-40, 47-39, the latter for the League championship. The second game with Pinkerton proved to be a thriller, however, the team winning by only two points, 39-37. Having won 19 straight games, and clinched the Southeastern B League championship for the fourth consecutive year, Exeter journeyed to Durham and the Interscholastic tournament. At Durham, where the best in schoolboy basketball was gathered, Exeter had one off day and was beaten by Gorham, 49-47. By the score you can see that Exeter was still a good team, but something was wrong that night. The fans didn't con- demn the team then and there because they watched a fighting team all year, one of the best ever seen at Exeter High. A lot of the credit goes to Clare Carroll, who led his team through that wonderful season. Of course the rest of the gang did a swell job, too, the Horne boys, Burt and Bobg and Muzzy, and Bill Bernier. These boys have made a record that they, and the school can be proud of. BASKETBALL JUNIOR VARSITY The Junior Varsity had as successful a season as the Varsity this year. enjoying a 14-2 record: Newmarket 33-16 Sanborn , 37-16 Pinkerton , 18-16 Hampton , 35-23 Amesbury 24-14 Traip ..., . . 33-23 Sanborn . 35-10 Newmarket . . , 11-10 Hampton . 25-16 Somersworth . . 14-15 Traip . , . . 27-18 Pinkerton , . . . 26-17 Newmarket 26-13 Amesbury . . , . . 24-25 Somersworth 39-23 Punchard . . , . . 21-19 I W BASEBALL Y 'S' Q lg ' f il gs f C , I 1946 EXETER HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK 65 BASEBALL Because of the short period of time between the beginning of baseball and the printing of the yearbook, there can be very little about the baseball season. On Wednesday, March 27, Coach George! Knox, who took the place of Mr. Berry, called out candidates for the Exeter High baseball team. Nine- teen boys reported along with the returning lettermen, Bill Bernier, Cap- tain Burt Horne, John Monaghan, Clare Carroll, Gubby Burnham, Bris Brisson, John Flynn, and Sir Baillargeon. The team is in need of pitchers even though the two sophomore pitch- ers are developing very well. With the fast and experienced infield and an exceptionally fast outfield, however, the team should have another good Se3.SOI1. The schedule is as follows: May Dover May 21, Somersworth May At Pinkerton May 24, Sanborn May At Sanborn May 29, Pinkerton May Newmarket May 31, At Newmarket May Traip June 6, At Traip This year the High School plans to field three teams, Varsity, Fresh- men, and the Junior High team which creates an interest in the boys for future years. There has never been a Freshman team and the Junior High team was disbanded in 1943 because of the war. Last year the Junior High team was coached by Mr. Rowe. This year the three teams will be coached by Mr. Knox. BASEBALL SQUAD nley. ta ggin, A. S onald, R. Wi D aC ncent, R. Welch, R. M Costello, G. Vi Row: J.

Chapter VI -- Seniors Now we were starting the last lap of our high school education. We numbered only twenty-six for which Miss Winn, the new Senior homeroom teacher, was extremely thankful. In the laboratory we learned that chemistry is as much an up and coming subject as is aeronautics, when missles leave test tubes and Hy dangerously about the room. In English class Miss Winn, when introducing new methods, was informed continually, We didn't do it last year I Miss Masterman, Mrs. MacNabb and Miss Clark deserve, beyond a doubt, the Distinguished Service Cross for services this year beyond the line of duty, when daily they saved many Seniors from casualty at the foot of the front stairs in the east wing. In athletics this year our class representatives were sensational in all sports. Now the renowned career of this inimitable class is coming to a close. It is our fondest hope and most certain belief that the Class of '46 will long be remembered for its happy carefree manner and its unequalled accom- plishments. CLAss HISTORIAN. .

Bill Cooper: A heck of a while, I hope! 90 per cent of the class: Ten to twenty years. . 8. DO YOU THINK THE UNITED NATIONS ISA STEP TOWARDS LASTING PEACE? ' - - - - ' . Dan Fowler:'Not the way its run now. They ha'ven't got the power to enforce their convictions - that is' if they ever get around to agreeing on something. - R Joseph Desroches: No, I don't think so. They'll let it slip just the way they did before. Dick Rock: It can be if the nations will just agree on a few things. EXETER HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK 1946 Clarence Carroll: If all the nations are getting together to discuss and iron out common problems, it must be a step towards last- ing peace. ARE YOU IN FAVOR OF AN ORGANIZATION SUCH AS THE O. P. A.? Paul Eno: No. It's just a racket to keep men in oflice. The principle of supply and demand will run this country and the people should be left alone. Bob Lannon: No. I should very much like to spend some money.
