THE PHILOMATH comes in handy when I am being asked a difficult question. I, Jeanne tDid-You-Hear-About-Sd and-So?J Donnelly, leave my ear for gossip and 'fnose for newsl' to anyone in the next class who has no self-conscious- ness or pity in her character. I, Elena tBashfulJ Guerra, leave open for pretty applicants my undisputed posi- tion as the quietest marshal. I, john tGenius?J Antul, leave a deep breath to the one in any future class who thinks that he can talk as long or as often as myself. We, Swede Hedberg and Uncle Bengio- vanni fthe 'fMutt and jeff of high school J, leave Mr. jones a revised edition of track rules which will allow Swede to -+24 15 jump any way at all, and Uncle to run in every race until the opposition gives up. I, jean McAuley, leave to Sue Merriam a perfect voice for saying, ftI'm only tree an' a half years old. As given in Ward 228 of the Framing- ham Unsanitorium on the seventeenth day of the fifth month in the year of our Lord one thousand nine hundred and forty- three, and duly witnessed by: Roberta Polepsky Eva Costello H. Victor Perlsputter Edwin Stillwagging and the class ltaw Jyer J. Antonius Duhnne. We, the Class of 1945 leave the High School! 01644 .Jfzlilaay fContinued from page 79 We were amazed to hear that again we had to elect a class adviser. Honestly, it was getting to be a routine. This time we elected Miss Wiley, who had also been ad- viser to the Class of '42, After working with Miss Wiley for a year, all we can say is, There ought to be a schoolfulf' VVe planned a gala Senior-Sophomore dance to welcome the incoming Class of l45. It was a howling success, as anything promoted by our class would naturally have to be. Election time rolled around again and the class leaders were: ftLefty Morris, president, Mary Clinton, vice-president, Mary O'Malley, secretary, and 'fPorky Collins, treasurer. Our athletic teams under the leadership of f'Lefty,' Morris, Billy Ryan, Sid Gree- ley, Basil Verdy, and Bill Martin piled up an impressive string of victories and really gave the school something to root for. The days had gone by on roller skates and we found ourselves approaching grad- uation faster than somewhat. Before we knew it we were in the midst of gradua- tion activities. Junior Prom . . . Band Concert . . . Class Night . . . Music Fes- tival .... All these events seemed to trans- pire in a dizzy haze, or a hazy diz, or some- thing. Then on the night of june 18 we walked the last mile down Nevins Hall, up the stairs, across the stage, down the stairs. and back to our seats. We came out of it all clutching a diploma and we knew that this was farewell to F. H. S. forever. FRED YITALI.
