Qfctis obfisfoz BEVERLY LACuo1x ln the year 1940, the Class of '44 entered the freshman year in D. H. S. with some 125 members. We soon organized our Iunior City and elected officers for the first half of the year as follows: Mayor, Lawrence Trachyg City Clerk, Beverly Lacroix, Treasurer, Ioan Mercier. During the last half of the year we held our second election, and the results were: Mayor, Carlene jones, City Clerk, Beverly Lacroix, and Treasurer, joan Mercier. One of the outstanding events of the class was the operetta, The Bandwagonv, a musical comedy which brought forth the many fields of talent in the freshman class, and proved to be a great success. Even now, three years later, that operetta still lingers in our minds and it isnlt uncommon to hear the catchy little tunes still being Sllllg. The Dancing Class Party was a happy and special occasion because, for most of us, it was the first time we had worn evening gowns. After this, things began to happen fast. Next came our class trip to YVellington Beach where we swam, ate, and played together as one big family. The following week these same people, girls once more in evening gowns, with their boy escorts marched across the stage to receive their diplomas, their admittance to F. 1-I. S. It was a happy moment with parents proudly looking on, but deep down inside, we hated to leave all the good times in D. Il. S. and especially Miss Rowell who we all wished could have come to lead us on in Franklin High School. Then in September came a moment that we had all DCSII looking forward to, for we were now really members of F. H. S. I'll admit that we were all very timid for a few weeks, for, in such a big building, things were very strange to us. Again it was time to make the choice of who were to be the leaders of our class, and wc chose as follows: President, Frederick Keating, Vice President, Pauline Chamberlain, Secretary, Rita Robiehaud and Treasurer, Ioan Mercier. It wasn't long before the upper classmen decided that we should be officially initiated and welcomed into Franklin High with a Sophomore Reception. The Sophomores were called upon to furnish the entertainment, and of course, furnished everyone with a good laugh. At the same time, we made many new acquaintances and from then on we really felt at home in F. H. S. Yes, it was a much smaller class that returned to carry on in the Junior year. Frederick Keating was again chosen as our President, Lawrence Trachy, Vice President, Pauline Chamberlain, Secretary, and Joan Mercier, Treasurer. The traditional junior Prom was a little different this year in that it was called the Junior-Senior Prom. Together these classes worked veiy hard to make the Prom the great success that it was. This year was a sad one also, for it was then that the first of our boys were called from our class to do a bigger job-that of de- fending their country.
