Music THE FORTY-NINERS ONE hundred years ago our ancestors surged across the continent in a mad quest for gold. This rush originated near Sacramento, at Sutter's Mill, in 1848 when laborers observed specks of gold scattered about the area on which they were working. Other deposits were found and many of these proved to be fabulously rich. Like an electric shock, the enchanting word GOLD spread across America. People went by overland trail, across the Isthmus of Panama, around the Horn, and, by the latter part of 1849, California had a population of over 1oo,ooo. For- tunes were made and lost, some made use of the gold they acquired, and others foolishly squandered it in the typical rough living of the Barbary Coast. These were the famous Forty-ninersf' ' If one simply substitutes the word EDUCATION for ooLD, and rearranges a few sentences, he will have the story of the present graduating class. We are also for- ty-niners, but our quest is for education. As freshmen we didn't quite realize the value of what we were seeking, but as we advanced, we discovered rich sources of education and enlightenment in mathematics, sciences, languages, and arts. We have received invaluable training in cooperation through sports and extracurric- ular activities. Like our ancestors, few have failed to dig for all we could get, un- like our ancestors, we are not likely to lose what we have acquired since education can in no way be taken away from an individual. Many of us will undoubtedly continue our schooling and specialize in some branch of these subjects, in order to achieve our vocations. Let us hope that we all make good use of our secondary education so that when our grandchildren look back at the record, we will have made a better showing with our education than our forebears did with their gold.

FROM ONE WHO KNOWS WHEN God created man to inhabit the universe, he did some very careful plan- ning, trying to form a perfectly synchronized machine of Hesh, bones and muscle. Little did he ever suspect that his product would dream up devious methods of self-destruction. Somewhere through the long course of history, someone found that, by binding long slats to his feet, he could travel over snow much faster than his legs could carry him. From that day on, man has never been the same. Yesterday afternoon, at 3:10, I began sliding down the long, white path to de- struction. I hadn't been on skis for over three years, but I was as good at falling down as I had ever been. You'd be surprised how easy it is to remember that part of skiing. Getting up the slope of Pleasant Mountain was simple enough. I'm an expert at holding onto a cable and being dragged up a mountain by sheer force. At the top of the tow, I turned and looked down upon my destination. Down there, ,way down there, lay the parking area. I gulped, knowing that the only way I could get to the car was to-I closed my eyes, said a quiet prayer for the salvation of my soul, and pushed oFf. Have you ever seen a woodchuck poking his head out of a burrow? Well, substitute a snowdrift for the burrow, me for the animal, and draw your own conclusions. Multiply this scene about thirty times and you will have a perfect picture of my Saturday afternoon activities. Toss in a few dozen bruises, several sore spots, and a cold, perhaps you can understand why I'm hob- bling around, swathed in Ace bandages, wincing at every step. Please accept a friendly warning from one who knows. Skiing is a fool's pas- time, an amusement for someone whois off the beam. It is a cold, painful, mur- derous method of self-inflicted torture! Excuse me, did you say something? Of course I'd like to go skiing this after- noon. Can you wait a minute while I put a fresh coat of wax on my skis? I couldnat get any speed at all with them yesterday. BETTE-JANE GRIERSON, ,4Q 30 The Academy Bell THE PARTY THE room was crowded with people, all talking noisily and busily. He glanced around for a secluded corner in which to relax for a few moments, and his eyes lighted on the doors leading to the veranda. Wonderful! he thought, it will be much cooler out there, and besides the people will never miss me. I really don't understand their conversation any more. It's been too long since I shared their outlook. The doors were open a trifle, and he glimpsed the vague outline of Blanche. Her slender, erect figure was hard not to recognize. I-Ie noticed Mil- dred across the room look at him as if she wished he would join her, but he glanced away quickly and slipped out to join Blanche. 'lHello, he said. Are you enjoying this clambake at all? She turned her head slowly in his direction as if reluctant to bring herself back to reality. Why yes, she said quietly. It's a little different from what I ex- pected it to be, but I think I am enjoying it. Especially now. She raised her eyes with a shy look, quite unexpected. The man looked at her with hidden admiration. Blanche always, somehow, still surprised him. Despite all the years he had known and loved her, he could never quite understand this fair, tall, aloof-looking girl. He realized suddenly that she was really very beautiful. With one last smile, she left him to join the party again. And who was that handsome lass to whom you were speaking? said an amused voice behind him. Startled, he turned around to Hnd himself gazing into the merry, brown eyes of Mildred. That,', he smiled, was Blanche. Oh, she smiled back, a little shade of uncertainty in her manner. Do you suppose that she is enjoying herself, Bill? It's so different from what she is used to doing. I do believe, however, that she is quite the most attractive girl here. Excepting my hostess, the man stated firmly with an affectionate tone. Blanche meanwhile moved gracefully from group to group. She wished sud- denly that Mac were there, but, of course, the crowd was just a little out of Macls class. lust as well, really, as he'd never behave like a gentleman. More the out- door type, she thought, like me. She looked across the room to where Mildred and Bill stood absorbed in con- versation. They were nice people, she thought, for parents, but gee! they just couldn't understand that she'd much rather spend her fifteenth birthday with Mac, her Scotty, than at an old party with all those drips. FLORENCE Woon, ,49 MY GARDEN ACQUAINTANCES ONE afternoon during the summer of 1938, while I was walking through my back yard, I spotted what I thought was a smooth elliptical stone, half buried in The Academy Bell 31 the mud. On picking it up, however, I discovered it to be a box turtle. Ever since this time I have been extremely interested in turtles. Being a geologist, and having the opportunity to go on many field trips during the summer months, my father was able to supply me with the majority of my collection. Late one afternoon of that First summer, after having been on a trip to south Iersey, he returned with an orange crate containing eight different sized tortoises. This really got my collection under way. At one time during my period of collecting, I had a total of twenty-two box turtles. Since some of these turtles had individual characteristics of their own they each had a special name. Ex- amples of these names are Aunt Minney, Crawly, the first turtle found, Crawlus, Big Boy, Squirticle, Princeton, Elmer, and Speedy. The reason I was able to accommodate conveniently so many turtles is the terrace which is built onto our house. The main difficulty in keeping them in- side the enclosure arose when one of the gates would accidentally be left open overnight. One morning my father discovered such a situation and called my at- tention to the fact. Frantically we rushed out into the back yard and began the search for the escaped turtles, and, after hunting for an hour or two, only Big Boy was left unfound. Two weeks later, however, a friend of mine, who lives three blocks away, discovered him crawling across his front lawn, and, recognizing him as a member of my collection, returned him to me. The process that a female turtle goes through before and after laying her eggs is extremely interesting. Late one autumn afternoon I observed that Crawlus was busily occupied digging a small hole near the edge of the garden. She would back down into the hole, and then, with a quick Hip of her hind legs, would send out a little spray of dirt. Because this was such a slow procedure, her digging continued until it was too dark to see what she was doing. On going to the loca- tion the next morning, I was amazed to find that there was no trace of the earth having been disturbed. Crawlus's camoufiaging job was perfect, so I drove a little stake into the general area to mark the spot. When spring rolled around the turtle population of the terrace was increased by five. Turtle races proved to be a good source of amusement for the neighborhood children. Each child would pick the turtle he thought to he the fastest. Then all the turtles competing in the race were placed in a box which was then turned over in the middle of the terrace. The lucky ones landed right side up, but others, less fortunate, would be dumped out on their backs, and sometimes they would- n't even bother turning over until the race was completed. The object of the race was to see which turtle could reach the edge of the garden first. Because the com- petitors themselves were in no hurry whatsoever, the race was even more inter- esting. One turtle would strike out across the lawn with determination written all over his face, and then, Hve feet from the garden he would stop, pull in his legs, and just sit there, craning his neck around in the breeze. In the meantime some other turtle, not so aggressive at first, would slowly overtake him and move into the garden, the winner. 32 The Academy Bell One of the saddest days of my life came in 1944 when, because of the high cost of dog food, the main source of the turtles' nourishment, we had to dispose of the collection. After I piled them into a large box which was placed in the back of the car, my father drove down to Lake Carnegie, which is about a mile away. Then, with one of us at each end, we carriedlthe box along the shore until we came to a secluded spot. Here they were set free. Being given permission to keep one, I selected Princeton, a large black and orange turtle that had been my favorite for a long time. He died during the winter of 1947. All that remains of my turtle collection is his carapace, which is now clamped securely on the top of a fence post in our back yard. As far as I can see, tortoises make just about the best pets for small children. I've never heard of anyone ever being bitten by a box turtle. The turtle's best defense is not offense, like a dog that will bite if teased, but instead he will merely shut up until the danger has passed over. Once a turtle has closed up he can take a terrific amount of punishment. Another reason that the tortoise makes a good pet is that he oxidizes food very slowly, and therefore does not have to be fed regularly. Even though turtles are extremely stupid, with no brains whatso- ever, I still maintain that they are about the friendliest of the quadrupeds. COPELAND MACCLINTOCK, ,52 POP! IT always seemed funny to me how the girls of this dorm always seemed to get blamed for all the mischief and merriment there. I made a very strange discovery last week, and I must tell you about it. I havenit told anyone else because I was afraid that they wouldn't believe me. Last week, as I was cleaning my room, I moved my bureau to clean the dust from behind it and what should pop out but a little man, who immediately scrambled under my bed! This sudden surprise nearly Hoored me, and it took me several minutes to recover. But when I did, I rushed for the bed too, only I was armed with a broom. It took me no more than a few minutes to procure this little fellow, squirming and kicking as I dragged him by the arm from under the bed. The dwarf danced about sneezing, coughing, and shaking the dust from his merry clothes. He was dressed like a jester in the court of the devil, and as I watched him, I could plainly see that he had some of the devil himself. His eyes danced like the little man. My First question to this jumping-jack, who was re- siding in my room, was what he was doing there and why? His answer came af- ter some minutes of the continual bobbing, while I became more curious and ag- gravated. After what seemed like a century had passed, the little dwarf answered my question by saying that he was a Sataner of dorms. I then asked him what his duties were, and he answered my question by asking me one. The Academy Bell 33 lust who do you think made Iudy dump that glass of water down your neck this morning, the one which completely soaked you? 'KI wasn't thinking of who did it at the time, but more of Iudy's being repaid which I, personally, promised.her.v Well, l'm the one to blame. I'm the one who helps you have all the fun and helps you aggravate the teachers. lim the one who pushes the ash cans around, runs up and down the halls, puts the 'hard, in the cider, and best of all, sneaks around after lights, throwing pillows and suchf' All that I could do was sit on the floor and stare at this human top, bubbling and boiling about the room. My third question to this little man was why we never saw him? Once more he quieted down long enough to catch a breath and answer my question. Why, my dear girl, I'm imaginaryf' Pop! and he was gone. PHYLLIS CHAMBERLAIN, '50 THE TEMPEST IUTTING out against the heavy, dark sky, the tallest buildings of the world looked even taller. Here and there a Hash of grey steel would catch the eye as dark clouds Hitted quickly across the fast-setting sun. The whole city was silent and everything seemed heavy and tense as if wait- ing- Suddenly everything went black, and in the same instant a giant bolt of white flashed crazily across the murky heavens showing the distinct lines of the huge metropolis lying paralyzed for a moment before the storm. Flash upon Hash of white light lashed out across the sky and the heavens poured forth unmercifully a torrent of beating rain. Over the sound of the rain could be heard the heavy booming of thunder and the howling of the wind. Again and again the storm struck, and it seemed as if the end of the earth were approaching. The wild rushing of wind and rain grew louder and more vicious, until the terrifying tempest that had begun so suddenly ended just as abruptly. Quietly and almost reverently the city, awed by the strength of nature, came again to life. People continued on their way and traffic resumed its creeping over the city. Overhead the once ominous sky silently cleared and one by one twin- kling stars appeared to welcome the cool evening gusts which blew gently. Soon there was nothing to show of the storm save the inky black depths of water in the now quiet rivers encircling the city. ANN TFBBITT ,SI . . , K THE FUGITIVE IT was a cold, damp night in early March, and as the dying embers of his small camphre began to fade out completely, young Rod Hunter began to feel the 34 The Academy Bell raw wind stinging his face and numbing his scantily clad body. He rose to his feet and started out to find more wood for his little blaze. He had gone only a few feet into the woods, when, as if held motionless by a giant hand, he stopped dead in his tracks and listened. Down in the valley he could hear the shouts of men and the baying of bloodhounds. They were after him! They even had dogs to follow his trail this time. The bitter cold and the raw, biting wind were forgotten in the rush of fear that swept over him like a tidal wave. They are coming to take me back to that 'place' again, he thought. I must get awayf, He began to run up the mountainside like one possessed. After what seemed like hours, he halted and dropped to the ground, too exhausted to move. His face was cut and bleeding where the branches of trees had slashed at him as he went by. His hands were scraped and torn from clawing at rocks and trees in order to gain more speed in his headlong plunge up the treacherous slope. Now he lay panting on the cold ground, worn out by his herculean efforts to get away from his pursuers. He couldn't think clearly, his eyes were glazed, and his head tilted on his shoulder. He slept. Far away he heard voices. They were the voices of men, and they were grad- ually coming closer. Suddenly he sat bolt upright, looking all around him. Then he felt a gentle hand on his shoulder, and a man's voice said, Take it easy, Roddy. For a twelve-year-old boy you have had a pretty rough time, and you need all the rest you can get, so lie back and take it easy. He gave a submissive sigh and settled back in the blankets the men had sup- plied him with. Well, he thought, I guess if there is anything in the world that a person canit get away from, it's school. Besides, I will see Mom again, and that will be swell.', IOHN WILLrAMs, '50 AN ATTIC THE attic was filled with an odd assortment of discarded or broken articles of furniture, and old family treasures. In one corner were stacked old-fashioned, fish-eyed pictures of ancient and forgotten members of the family tree. In an- other corner was a set of horse-hair furniture, on which the upholstery was some- what ragged. Between the portraits and the horse-hair furniture was piled a muddle of chairs and stands, all minus a leg or with a broken back. There were many antique family heirlooms and relics such as kerosene lamps, old vases, a spinning wheel, and old-fashioned clocks, which had long been out of order. There were numerous piles of newspapers and magazines, dating from 1890. Over all rested a thick layer of dust, and the attic looked as if it had not been dis- turbed for many years. MAYNARD SEELYE, ,52 The Academy Bell 35 ONE WAY TO DO IT , DID you ever go ice fishing? No? Well, believe me, you don't know what youlre missing. Fishing in the summer with a rod and reel is one thing. That is, you either sit on a bank swarming with ants, and wait hour after hour to catch maybe a four- inch perch, or else you row out in a boat and sit in the sweltering sun throughout the day, just begging for a rosy red sunburn to doctor up for the next two or three days. No sir! That's not for me. I wait for the winter and do it the easy, reliable way like this: On some nice, sunny day, cold or otherwise, when I am in the mood, I get up early in the morning, call a few friends and invite them along. Then I cheerfully start to prepare my dayis equipment. First comes the most essential article, food--naturally. This includes: a pound of hamburg, rolls, onions, relish, mustard, pickles, potatoes to fry, coffee, cake and anything else that happens to appeal to my taste at this time. Oh, I suppose you are wondering why I bother with hamburg, Why donit I fry my fish that I will have caught by noon? The main reason is that Ilm not a gambling person. In other words, I don't want to take any chances on not eating. After settling the food situation I turn to my conglomeration of Fishing tackle. From this entanglement of hooks, lines, and sinkers, I withdraw eight sturdy ice fishing lines and ten fairly large hooks fyou always manage to lose a couple of big ones, you knowj. Then I paw out eight good Hags. These are flags attached to the top of a stick. You prop the stick up beside the hole in the ice that you are going to fish through and leave it there hooked to the Fish line in such a way that when a fish gives a slight tug on the bait, the flag pops up and gives the signal. Well, I guess that's all I will need of that stuff because, after all, the fishing has always been real good at my prospective spot and eight lines will keep me busy enough. Oh, yes, here's hoping I don't forget to get some bait on my way to my destination. The reason I have to purchase my bait on the way is that I use shiners and they are very small fish. I guess I have Hnally gotten everything together that I am going to need ex- cept my Heece-lined parka and plenty of warm wool socks to protect me against the cold when I run out onto the ice to pull in a fish. After packing all my paraphernalia into the car I am off to pick up my two pals who are going to accompany me on this cozy little expedition. Believe me, when you get a car with three people, three sets of fishing tackle, food and mis- cellaneous articles all packed in, it's loaded, but that's what makes things fun, you know. We pick up three dozen shiners on the way and we reach my little cottage, which practically sits on the lake, at about 7:30 A.M., all rating to go. You see, the way I promote this business, you sit inside a nice warm little camp, right by a big front window. There you can play cards or do whatever you like to amuse 36 The Academy Bell yourself, as long as you keep one eye on those flags out front. Then when one of them springs up and gives the signal you can grab your jacket and tear out of the house. This way you get no frost bites, good relaxation, and a little ex- citement to keep the blood circulating well. Now, if you like this little method of mine, try it. If it doesn't succeed-well- I never said there was anything really wrong with fishing in the summer, did I? ANN BROWN, '51 FLYING - IUNIOR . SCALE A GREAT number of people, when flying is mentioned, think of fighter planes, light private planes, or the giant airliners. Few, except members of model clubs, ever think of the growing sport of control-line model airplane flying. These are the ones who are missing something. The planes then are usually modeled after some famous racing or sport plane. Ranging in wingspan from 24 to 54 inches, these planes can be purchased in kit form or may be built from plans supplied at leading hobby shops. Built of balsa wood, which is exceptionally light, and covered with silkspan, a paper-silk com- position which looks much like tissue paper, they are sprinkled with water. Af- ter the water dries, the paper is skin tight. This is then covered with dope to give it toughness. The motors, which are the main part of these little speedsters, are marvels of engineering. They usually weigh about seven ounces and deliver from a fifth to a seventh horsepower at 9,000 R.P.M. They are of the two-cycle variety and run on a mixture of gas and oil. Late developments in the model motors, Held in- clude diesels, which have no ignition, and jets, which operate much like blow- torches. Now that we have the plane constructed and powered, we are ready to rig it for flying. Tight steel wires run from a handle, held in the operatoris hand, through the wing tip to a bell crank which operates the elevator. These wires are ordinarily 50 feet long. Usually the operator has a helper who starts the en- gine and holds the plane while the motor is being warmed up. After this, the motor is refueled, started again, and the plane is released. The operator lets the plane make about two laps, then pulls the handle back. With good luck, the plane will be airborne in a few seconds to fly in circles about the operator who controls it like a real plane merely by pushing or pulling on the handle. As soon as the motor dies, bring the plane into a gentle glide and set her downf, Of course, if the lines break, you lose about S10 worth of plane, two weeks of labor, and a whole book full of words never printed in a dictionary. Anemia MILI.IKEN, ,49 The Academy Bell 37 REMINISCENCES As I sit here in the quiet solitude of dusk, I wonder what lies ahead for Mother, Father, and especially Paul. The future. How often people forget that the future is the product of the past and the present! Breaking the profound silence are the soothing strains of Chipper's concert violin. Chipper had played in the Philharmonic before. Playing seems to be the only way he can escape his thoughts. He has been here five years now, three years longer than I. But tonight I scarcely notice Chipper's music. My mind is not on tonight, not on tomorrow, but on the past, and what brought us here. Time eases back with the swiftness of an arrow to the day Paul and I graduated from college. I can re- member as though it were yesterday. Mother and Father had come up from Pres- cott to attend the graduation and they had driven up in Dad's old Ford. As Paul and I stepped up on the platform together to get our diplomas, we could see their proud smiling faces in the front row. Tears managed to trickle down Mother's face, to the despair of her best efforts with her hanky. As I saw this, a lump rose in my throat. I thought of all the scrimping and saving they had endured to send us through college. Though Paul had always been in some sort of mischief, he had been the favor- ite. It was Paul who got the extra helping of ice cream, he to whom Mom gave the money for a new scout knife. I had always taken the rap for Paul's doings. Yet I worshipped him, for he was what I had always wanted to be. He had nerve, good salesmanship, and most of all, a way with the ladies. Sure, I had been smarter than he in school. In fact, I did the work for both of us. That was the way it was after we went into business together. I made the money and Paul spent it. It was three years ago this month that I had noticed a definite change in him. Paul took on a haggard, worried look. But as for getting anything out of him, I couldnlt. He simply told me he was all right and not to worry. But I knew this was more than just some trivial affair. Consulting one of Paul's intimate friends, I learned that he had been frequent- ly attending the local gambling casino. He had been taking considerable losses. I knew Paul had no money with which to pay his debts, and I had managed to save very little. Sick with fear and disgust, I took 340,000 from a client's account. I imagine you can guess the rest. The next day the client called and told me he had transferred his account to another firm. One event led to another and they gave me ten years. I was satisfied though. Paul was safe. But now I wonder about Mother and Dad. Tonight at eleven Paul is going to the chair for murder. JOHN SILVER, '50 38 The Academy Bell GOLF EACH week end, thousands of people flock to the broad expanses of closely clipped turf known as golf courses. These people, wearied by a week's labor, or simply trying to escape from such household tasks as mowing the lawn or beating a few rugs, are about to relax by lugging a cumbersome golf bag, which weighs from fifteen to twenty-five pounds, over several miles of unusually bad terrain. But wait-this is just a beginning. In the course of a few hours they will heftily swing a club at an elusive white pellet no less than one hundred times. Happily these fanatics plough through jungle-like underbrush, wade knee deep through muck-filled swamps, and in general work themselves into a sad state of physical fatigue and nervous frustration. Let us take a look at several types of this species. First there is the chap who is just beginning. He has usually been completely outfitted by an obliglng pro with several hundred dollars, worth of paraphernalia. There is always a friend around who has promised to show our beginner the intricacies of the sport. He quickly discovers that the game is not as simple as it looks, and at the first few attempts this eager soul succeeds only in breaking most of the rules of golf eti- quette plus holding up indefinitely those persons who are playing behind him. Next we have the emotional type. He not only works himself into a fit of dis- traction, but he succeeds in chafing the composure of those around him. It is this sort of chap who can usually be seen angrily gouging great divots out of the fair- way with his club after an unsuccessful shot. Without exception this specimen is certain to have the highest score and lose the most golf balls of his party. In rare instances a person can be found who goes golfing without being dead- ly serious about it. He regards the game as it was once intended-as a game, and at the end of a day on the course he is still relaxed and content, regardless of his score. There is one greatly increasing group that has not been mentioned. They are the women who have been bitten by the golf bug. They possess all of the previ- ously described characteristics plus a few more that are exclusive to them. You may ask, When do all these people pursue this game?,' The answer is, Always, No day is too hot, too cold, or too stormy for golf players. ln winter, if there is not more than an inch of snow on the ground, red golf balls are pur- chased and the sport is continued until, at last, the snow becomes too deep to walk through easily. In areas where there is no snow, it is a year-round game. The golf bug is no respecter of persons. If you are fond of the outdoors, ener- getic, compelled to do a few household chores, and restless in your spare moments, watch out. If you are bitten, you will soon find yourself among this ever-growing throng. But before you make the plunge, take a little advice. I've tried golfing and mowing the lawn or beating a few rugs is easier.

The city had changed greatly in fifteen years, and he knew not which way to turn. Where would he go now? He tried to think. Undoubtedly some of his former acquaintances would offer him shelter, but he did not care to see the people he had once known. They were all fools, he thought, and it would be difficult to make them understand the many things he had learned during his fifteen-year imprisonment. Instead of his forty years, the unkempt lawyer looked nearly seventy as he made his way along the wind-swept streets. His hair and beard brushed the top of his coat, and his haggard face bore the deep creases of thousands of lonely hours. His glassy eyes seemed not to notice the curious townsfolk who stared unmercifully at this ragged soul. He thought of only one thing. I am free- but what now? He considered returning to his vacant office, locked and barred during all the years. He wondered how thickly the dust was piled on his law manuals and files. It would do no good to return to his former profession. He would only laugh at the silly, petty complaints of his clients. What use had he for their gold? Had he not, just a few minutes ago, renounced two millions? Perhaps, with his extensive knowledge, he could obtain a position at some university or other in- stitute of learning. He knew that would fail miserably. How long could he en- dure those mortal clowns who snatched eagerly at the material values of life, while they by-passed thoughtlessly the deeper meanings of his lessons? There was nothing left for him. Absent-mindedly he noticed the dead, frost-ravaged leaves being torn from their limbs by the autumn gales. He was like a dry leaf, he mused. Now he was torn from his source of strength-to bt blown about by the winds of Fate. No place to go. Nothing to do. Iust walk and walk. Numb to danger, the man started across the street. His brain was full of fif- teen long years of solitude, towering peaks, big game hunting, secret loves, clas- sical works, drunken loneliness-and flying leaves. He did not see or hear the runaway carriage, drawn by lathered, wild-eyed horses, careening toward him. He had not even time to cry out before the thundering, death-shod hoofs were upon him.

A piano prelude, Christmas Fantasiaw by Mueller, played by Olive-Anne Kim- ball opened the program. The invocation by the Rev. Wilfred G. Rice was followed by music as the Boys' and Girls' Glee Clubs sang Angels VVe Have Heard on High and ulesus, Iesus, Rest Your Head. Miss Margaret Hague sang a soprano solo, Iesu Bambinof' accompanied by Miss Peggy Klotz, violinist, and Olive-Anne Kimball, pianist. Another solo, O Holy Night, was sung by Nancy Iohnston with a musical background by the Girls' Glee Club. The Girls, Glee Club sang two more selections, Virgil', and Bring A Torch, Ieannette, Isabellaf, The Christmas Play, The Supreme Giftf' was directed by Miss Leighton. It dealt with a young man who gave up everything, but in the end found what he had been seeking. The program ended with community singing and the benediction given by the Rev. Iohn A. Douglas.

We meet twice each week under the leader- ship of Miss Peggy Klotz. In December we sang for The Fryeburg Woman's Library Club and for Christ- mas Vespers, with Miss Hague singing Iesu Bambinof' Laura Fox, O Lord Most Holyf' and Nancy Iohnston, O Holy Night. This special music was ac- companied by Miss Klotz, violin, and Olive-Anne Kimball, piano. We also sang for a church service in Lovell, December 12, with a similar program. The Acade- my Glee Club, in conjunction with the Fryeburg Grammar School, gave a Christ- mas Concert at the Fryeburg Congregational Church, under the supervision of Miss Klotz. This is the first, I believe, that we have ever had. The program was the same as that of the Vespers, the two groups combining to sing about a dozen songs. At the time I am writing this, Miss Klotz is drilling us for Prize Speaking and Baccalaureate. OL1vE-ANNE KIMBALL, '50 SENIOR PLAY - 1949 THE Class of 1949 presented a fast-moving comedy, We Shook The Family Tree, on the night of December 21, 1948, in the K. of P. Hall. Studious Hildegarde Dolson, who is tired of being a wallliower, attempts to win the attention of a senior boy who will take her to the big dance. She wins the school debate with a plea against drinking, but her debating ability almost causes a family disaster. Everyone is convinced that Mr. Dolson is a drunkard, and he nearly loses his respectable position in the bank. Mrs. Dolson, in spite of her anxiety, is able to obtain a date for Hildegarde. When Hildegarde learns that her date is Freddie, she attempts to take control of the situation, for Freddie is the only boy in school who wears knickers. When Mr. Dolson invites his boss, Mr. Shermer, to his home to prove that his family is perfectly sane, the whole picture looks hopeless for the Dolson family. In the end, the solution is reached, and Hildegarde's problems are settled. Hildegarde and Freddie, who is now wearing a pair of his own long pants, leave for the big dance. Angela Gookin gave an excellent portrayal of Hildegarde who was always get- ting into trouble merely as a result of attempting to keeptjrom being a stuffy old maid. Young Dickie', Walker showed remarkable ability as Paige, the lit- tle boy who enjoyed playing postman with the Dolsons' love letters. Big, brawny 'KBill Puifer, as Freddie, looked slightly old-fashioned in the knickers which his mother forced him to wear. The entire cast did well in presenting the play in a casual, natural manner. em u mn: warm xr --V--: 1 .5 1 A ...... , . .,,,, A If Ap. , A The Class of 1949 wishes to express its appreciation to Mrs. Heartz, the compe- tent directorg the castg and the technical staff for making the senior play a suc- CCSS.

EMERSON Roncians, ,49 FRESHMAN DANCING LESSONS THE Tuesday before the much-dreaded Freshman Reception we were told to re- port to the gym for the first of a series of lessons on how to perform on a ball- room floor. Such an awkward group of eager amateurs we were as we hled into the gym where we were greeted by our instructor, Miss Burnham, and her pianist, Mrs. Iordanl We were First instructed to glide gracefully around the room, form- ing a circle as we danced. This, accomplished after a few clumsy attempts, re- sulted in many skinned heels and ankles. Step two was to choose partners, an an- nouncement which resulted in a mad dash by the boys for the girl who they thought would be of the greatest aid in their Hrst solo. The girls limped from the gym that day with aching feet on which the boys had so delicately trod. Time passed on and by the time we received our fifth and concluding lesson we could actually dance. Under the patient guidance of Miss Burnham and to the tune of Some Sunday Morning we had changed our first clumsy attempts into what is known as ballroom dancing. We were Finally ready to mingle with our upper classmates on the dance floor. The freshmen of ,48 wish to express their appreci- ation for this welcome opportunity. ELAINE ANnERsoN, '52 :S QW Nm!!

The freshmen boys were dressed as girls and the girls as boys. It was a weird spectacleg both boys and girls were painted with liquid shoe polish. When everyone was ready, the freshmen rolled in or came in as wheelbarrows, the boys going to the left and the girls to the right of the committee platform. When everyone was settled and the laughing had tempo- rarily stopped, the fun began in full. lose Dieguez, the junior class president, announced the antics. Almost every- thing conceivable was done. Such things as putting molasses and egg in one's hair, and giving a bath to another were intended to humiliate the freshmen no end. There were also blindfolded boxing matches, beauty contests, and many other stunts too numerous to mention. When it was all over, the freshmen were taken downstairs where they cleaned up and changed clothes. It was all endedg the night they had feared was behind. They now could go their way. They would have no more beds to make or shoes to shine. A dance with a small band supplying the music followed. With the seats still up, the space was limitedg nevertheless a large number managed to occupy the floor at one time. The dance lasted until Ir:oo. Upper classmen left after an en- ioyable time, and freshmen left with the grand feeling that the night they had 48 The Academy Bell dreaded was now something to remember. Although I as a freshman wasnit sup- posed to have a good time, I enjoyed myself immensely. ROBERT CHADBOURNE, '52 HUSKING BEE DANCE. THIS year the Fryeburg Academy Chapter of the Future Farmers of America sponsored the second annual Husking Bee Dance at the Gibson Gymnasium. Due to the great success of the First event of this nature, another was eagerly an- ticipated. The gym was gaily decorated with corn shocks, a cider barrel, and fes- tive colors to produce a pleasant autumn atmosphere. fThe cider barrel was use- ful as well as ornamental, and its tasty contents were readily consumed.j On the gym floor, waiting to be husked, was a large pile of corn throughout which were scattered red ears. A few industrious agriculture students auctioned off some red ears before the I-lusking Bee started, thus making a personal profit and guaran- teeing an evening of good entertainment to several young gentlemen. After sufficient corn had been husked, the remainder was swept aside, and ev- eryone danced until II:3o to the music of Roy Horne and his Rhythm Kats. Thus ended another successful dance. RONALD W. HILL, ,49 FOOTBALL DANCE THE Football Dance, sponsored by the Varsity Club, was held November 22 in the Gibson Gym. Lloyd Rafnell's orchestra, always enjoyed by the students, played for the dance. The gym was decorated with brightly colored pennants and various appurtenances of the gridiron, constructed from paper by the members of the club. During intermission ice cream and soft drinks were sold with great success. Credit for the dance should go to the committee under the chairmanship of Mike Peirce. We hope next yearls dance will be as great a success as this year's dance was. EMILY DYER, ,49 SADIE HAWKINS THE Academy doors were thrown open at 2:00 sharp and everyone rushed to the gym. Yes-Sadie Hawkins was Finally under way! Basketball games were num- ber one on the schedule. The girls were playing Fryeburg's Alumnae, and the boys were playing Bridgton Academy. After much cheering both games ended In victory. That evening everyone gathered once more, this time at the Alumni House where a buffet supper was served. After the delicious food was gone, we made a rush to the skating rink. Lights were shining on the ice, and a bonfire at one end of the rink added to the atmosphere and helped warm chilled fingers and toes. The Academy Bell 49 The orchestra came on records, and while the platters spun around, dancers slipped over the ice. After the dance hot chocolate and crackers were served at the dorm, Miss Leighton played the piano and the group sang old favorites. Next day came the ski events and Coronation Ball. The gym was gaily decorat- ed with snowmen, igloos, and bushels of green bows hanging from the windows and doors. Madelyn Tuggy'l Baker was our very charming queen, and Emily Dyer, Eleanor Hill, Carley Warren, and Eva Dunn were her attractive atten- dants. Trays with prizes for skiing and gifts for the queen and her attendants were carried in by Reta Plummer and Betty Mallett. Queen Tuggyn awarded the prizes for the afternoon events which were as follows: Class A Class B Girls Ist Ronald Hill Bernard Watt Iune Davis 2nd Clyde Eastman Harry Kramer Barbara Bowles Lloyd Rafnellls orchestra supplied rhythmic music for the dancing couples, as they whirled around the gaily decorated hall. At midnight everyone said good- night and a good-bye to another two days of fun. BETTY MALLETT, ,49 ASSEMBLIES ON October 20, Norman Coates Webster presented the first of a series of as- sembly programs at Fryeburg Academy, by speaking on the subject, So You Donit Like Poetry. While bringing out the point that poetry is a part of our ev- eryday life, he reduced the once popular song, The Girl That I Marry, to shreds just by reading the words without the aid of music. Although he had a difficult subject to present, he combined gaiety and solemnity so well that the listeners were entertained as well as instructed. On November 12 the Student Council held an assembly to inform the students about the extracurricular activities, and to encourage participation in them. On November 22 Miss Paula Kann related in an extremely interesting talk some of her experiences with the American Ski Team at the Winter Olympics in Switzerland. On Saturday, December fourth, Albert Franklin Stewart, the well-known ln- dian bass-baritone of the Chickasaw Nation, gave a concert which consisted of ancient and modern Indian songs. Between songs he gave brief accounts of their origin. His wife accompanied him at the piano. Before the Gould game on Ianuary seventh, a basketball rally was held in Cur- tis Hall. The main purpose of this assembly, however, was to present trophies to Bob Churchill and Emote Alexander, who were chosen for the All-Oxford Coun- ty Football Team. Burton Lynn Iackson, marimba virtuoso who is known as the dean of marim- ba teachers, gave a performance here on Friday, Ianuary 21. Along with selections by Bach, Debussy, Tchaikowsky, and Rose, he explained the origin and history of the instrument. One interesting thing he pointed out was that it is difficult to distinguish between the marimba and the xylophone. ln 1929 Leonhard Seppala, King of the Mushersf' paid a visit to Fryeburg Academy, and, on February 21 of this year, he returned to relate to us some of his exciting experiences with dogs. Most of his stories were centered around Togo, his favorite lead dog. During his 47 years of dog racing he set many records which are still unbroken. COPELAND MACCLINTOCK, ,go Y-TEENS President M,NDELYN BAKER Vice President IANET BRYANT Secretary IUDITII CHURCHILL Tl'6d5I4I't'l' JUNE DAVIS Adzffxez' MISS PRISCILLA HIGGINS Y-TEEN meetings are fun for all. That is Why the group has grown each year until now our group is one of the largest in this state. Une ofthe first meetings in the fall was devoted to a scavenger hunt. The girls enjoyed competing for prizes, especially in bringing back some of the queer ob- jects for which they were sent. At a later meeting we had a speaker, Miss Parsons, who told us about her ac- tivities in the Red Cross in Czechoslovakia just after World War I. Everyone The Acadcm y Bell SI was interested in her work and from her talk we were led to investigate the pos- sibility of sending overseas boxes to another Y-Teen group abroad. We were assigned a club in Germany. Then we found that club and party sup- plies were needed most. Our profits from ice cream sales at the senior class play were used to H11 the overseas boxes. During one meeting we burned wishing candles which we made. The pennies contained in them were given for the boxes. The Y-Teens Christmas party was held for the little girls of grades one to three. It was hard to tell who had the most fun playing games-the little girls or the Y-Teen members. Working with the Girls' Athletic Association we helped to sponsor the Haw- kins Heyday, which everyone eagerly anticipates each year. In reviewing all these events we see that this has been a very successful year. Let's watch next year's organization grow, and wish them some of the good times that we have had. IOAN Btmcass, '49 HOME ECONOMICS CONVERSATION heard one afternoon among the girls in the senior home econom- ics class who were reviewing the year's work: Remember the fun we had sponsoring a booth at the penny carnival last March? Oh, yes, and remember the big Easter bunny Miss Houghton, our student teacher, helped us make? It certainly was cute! The highlight of the year was our spring fashion show and Mother and Daughter Banquet. I remember how my knees shook as I walked slowly into the overcrowded libraryf' It's a wonder I didn't lose my balance and suddenly collapse on the stage! Wasn't the banquet the sophomores served us delicious! We had everything from grapefruit baskets to pielv I hear the sophomores have completed their sewing and are now busy with home nursing. I expect to come in some day and see several of the senior night- hawks sound asleep on the bed they are using for practice work. It's such a temp- tation to take a snooze about the time seventh period rolls aroundf, 'Tm sure Mrs. Gray would never forgive us. We have scads of things to dis- cuss about child care before Easter vacation and some new clothes to make after- wardsfi 'Tm anxious to start on a spring suit. The sewing machines should be in good condition for the junior girls cleaned and oiled them last week. 'KDid you know that they did some canning, made delicious candy, served a Christmas dinner to themselves, and visited Trumbullls store to learn about frozen foodsP', 52 The Academy Bell They certainly have been busy! I went down for make-up the other day and most of them were enjoying a sea food dinner. Some of them wouldnit even touch theirs. Oh, is that the tantalizing aroma that was emerging from the home econom- ics room? I guess we should have gone down and investigated! It's unbelievable the new artists and interior decorators that were discovered when we rehnished furniture and renovated tin. I thought several of us would end up decorating ourselvesf, We can always find time to make and serve sandwiches to visiting football and basketball teams. Those Hebron boys were so cute, weren't they, Tuggy and Betty? Oh yes, our kitchens are always useful after skating parties and play day ac- tivitiesf, Didn't they start to serve school lunches to the bus and town students? 'AYes, but there weren't enough who patronized the lunches so they were dis- continuedf' I will never forget the delicious buffet lunch the juniors served the cast after the senior play. I ate so much that it was difhcult for me to get up from my chair. Remember the time the juniors helped us serve the banquet for the Oxford County Headmasters, Association? We took pains to give Mr. Gray special serv- ice with the hope that he would give us an A in Englishf' We can certainly be proud of our classmate, Tuggy, who was chosen queen at Hawkins Heyday carnival! lust think, four of the attendants were from our senior home economics class! We have worked hard this year but have enjoyed every minute of it, and we won't soon forget so understanding and instructive a teacher as Mrs. Gray. ELIZABETH HURD, ,49 COMMERCIAL DEPARTMENT ANYoNE who chances to enter the commercial department finds a busy scene be- fore him. A businesslike atmosphere reigns over Room 2 with the mimeograph clicking out its own little song as the papers go rolling through it, and the type- writers adding their voices in harmony. We have had a great deal of fun this year working on extracurricular activities in our ofiice practice classes. In November we aided the Varsity Club by making the football programs, tickets, and Hiers. In December we were busily engaged decorating the assembly hall for Vesper Service, making programs, and making wreaths. From Ianuary until spring vacation, there was work on the ACADEMY BELL dummy to be done. In the course of the school year, there were stencils for school, church, and extracurricular activities to be cut. Regular class work in of- hce practice goes on daily. However, such work ceases temporarily when requests The Academy Bell 53 for programs, typed copies of essays, etc. come in unexpectedly and a deadline has to be met. The students in bookkeeping class have been able to conquer the complicated forms and statements necessary for a business. At present they are working on a practice set. The future stenographers have been trying to master the mysterious quirks and curves of Gregg. Although we have worked hard in our commercial classes, we have had a lot of fun. In future years we will remember Miss Leighton who has helped and guided us through three years of commercial studies. IUNE Davis, ,4Q FRYEBURG,S FUTURE FARMERS THE Agricultural courses and F. F. A activities were started again this year by Mr. Howard, but he resigned in October to take a position as poultry specialist in the Camden area for Wirthmore Feed Co. Mr. Haggerty of Harrison became our instructor. The F. F. A. sponsored this year their annual Corn Husking Bee and Dance, but it was not the success that it was last year. We planned to hold a box supper and hayride, but a date could not be set because of sickness among the Academy students. The cattle judging teams which competed against teams from other F. F. A. clubs in southern Maine at the West Oxford Agricultural Fair in Fryeburg are as follows: Raymond Smith and Rudolph Rogers, dairy, Warren Cox and Con- rad Hartford, beef. The agriculture classes have repaired and put new doors on the hayloft of the Academy barn, and installed comfort stanchions and water bowls on one side of the tie-up. They have completed the milk house and plan to extend the short silo to the height of the taller one and construct a common roof. Our exhibit of grass silage at the fair Won second prize, five dollars, in the state contest. Last fall we attended a meeting sponsored by Frank D. Reed, extension poul- try specialist of the University of Maine. We saw movies about poultry diseases, and Mr. Reed talked about Newcastle disease, which was entirely unknown a few years ago but is becoming more prevalent in Our state. All Future Faqners except freshmen attended the annual meeting ofthe Maine Artificial Breeders Association on February 16. The club this year has twenty-nine members. Ofiicers are: President ROBERT BURNELL Vice Pl'65I.dt?71l PHILIP TROTT Secretary RUDOLPH ROGERS Treasurer CLAYTON RICHARDSON MAYNARD SEELYE, '52 54 The Academy Bell GREGG WRITER AWARDS PENCILS have been flying and typewriters clicking in Room 2 this year as the second and third year shorthand and typing classes have been striving to obtain Gregg Writer Awards.

Tinker Chapter of the National Honor Society has meetings twice a month in the library. The group consists of seventeen members, the largest so far in this chapter. The concluding meeting last spring was a banquet at Pleasant Mountain lnn at Bridgton. The members met with the faculty council and the guest of honor, Mr. Tinker, for an enjoyable evening at the inn. Afterwards the group had a pleasant visit to Mr. Tinker's home in Fryeburg. The ollicers, elected by the society members, are as follows: Robert Brown, president: Dorcas Blaich, vice president: Angela Gookin, secretaryg and Robert Harriman, assistant treasurer. The meetings held this year consisted of regular business meetings followed by speakers who talked on varied and constructive topics. The society members are responsible for arranging the meetings and obtaining the speakers. Those who have spoken at the meetings this year are as follows: Mr. Augustus Smith, a retired teacher and author of an economics textbookg Mrs. Ernst Kroner of The League of New Hampshire Arts and Crafts: Mr. Richard Turner, of Fryeburgg 56 The Academy Bell Mr. T. P. Blaichg Mr. C. G. Walker, and Mr. I. C. Haggerty, all members of the faculty. The society has two main projects this year. One of them is school publicity and the keeping of a scrapbook of the newspaper clippings about the school, the other one is to provide medals for presentation to the freshman boy and girl with the highest scholastic average. Two one-act plays are to be given to finance these medals. At Christmas time Mr. Tinker's gift made possible a party for the society at the Iolly Gingersnap. The group enjoyed a dinner after which Robert Brown entertained by playing a few selections on the piano. On February 26, in Curtis Hall, a candlelight service was held before the stu- dent body for the admission of new members. The following students were ad- mitted: john H. Taylor, Helen D. Palmer, Frances A. Dunham, Phyllis N. Chamberlain, Charlotte A. Clemons, Clyde H. Eastman, Copeland MacClintock, and Beverly I. Rogers. It's fine to see such a large group of new members, and it's hoped that many more students will have the incentive and the ability to meet the requirements in character, scholarship, leadership, and service. ANGELA GOOKIN, '49 THE CAMERA CLUB RECENTLY a Camera Club was started by Mr. Blaich. There are meetings with lectures by him about the camera and its functions. Pictures are to be submitted for print criticism which will be a basis for selecting permanent members. With the construction of a darkroom in the future, the club members will do all types of processing. HELEN PALMER, '50 OPEN HOUSE OPEN House for parents and friends of the school was held at the Academy, Tuesday evening, May 25. There were exhibitions and demonstrations of the chemistry, manual training, home economics, and biology departments. A display of Mr. Iohn Muench's lithographs in the Elizabeth W. Tinker Li- brary was an added feature. On the same evening, the annual Mother and Daughter Banquet was held in the home economics room for all junior and senior girls taking that course. Fol- lowing the banquet there was a fashion show in which all the home economics students modeled the garments which they had made during the year.

STUDENT COUNCIL President ROBERT HIXRRIAIAN Vice President CLEMENT HARTFORD Secretary IANET BRYANT Tina Student Council of Fryeburg Academy is a group of students who were elected by their classmates at the beginning of school. The Council takes active part in school affairs and sponsors many school functions. lt meets every other Monday at I o'clock in the library. The faculty advisers are Miss Frances Dow and Mr. Theodore Blaich. Early in the year, the council members gave an assembly in which they dis- cussed the various activities of the school and invited all students to participate in the diiferent organizations. During the March of Dimes drive the Student Council took up a collection at the school. After Christmas the Council established a coatroom guard. In this most of the Council students gave up one study-period a day to stay in the hall beside the coatroom. At present the Council is planning projects for school betterment. GLENICE HARMON, ,52 58 The Academy Bell GRADUATION EXERCISES BACCALAUREATE service, held Iune 9, 1948 in the Congregational Church, marked the beginning of the graduation exercises. The address was given by the Rev. Wallace W. Anderson, D.D., pastor of the Portland State Street Congregational Church. The annual prize-speaking contest was held on Monday evening. Robert Harriman and William Puffer were the winners. Due to rain, the Class Day exercises were held inside the Congregational Church. Speakers chosen by their classmates gave the class prayer, class history, prophecy, will, and gifts. The Alumni Banquet, held at the Alumni House, was followed by the festive Graduation Ball in the Gibson Gymnasium. On Iune II the actual graduation exercises were held in the Congregational Church. The various prizes were awarded by Mr. LaCasce who then called on Mr. B. W. Tinker, vice president of the Board of Trustees. Mr. Tinker remarked that Mr. Gibson was elected as a member of the Board of Trustees in 1919 when the life of the Academy was at a low ebb. With his usual energy Mr. Gibson put his ability to work for the Academy and soon obtained a gift of 5I00,000 from Mr. Converse for the institution. Since that time Mr. Gibson has contributed much money of his own and was instrumental in obtaining the gift from Mr. Cyrus H. K. Curtis for the extension of the school recitation building. In con- clusion Mr. Tinker said that much that Fryeburg Academy has accomplished is due to the efforts and generosity of Harvey D. Gibson of the class of 1898. Before presenting the diplomas Mr. Gibson told the graduating class a little about his own class of seven members. As usual Mr. Gibson was very modest about himself, but he did praise Mr. Tinker and the work that he had done for the school, he commended very highly the other members of the Board of Trus- tees and the faculty for their efforts on behalf of the Academy. BETTE-IANE GRIERSON, ,49 PRIZES AND AWARDS EVERY year on Graduation Day numerous prizes and awards are presented to the most deserving students. These awards are made possible by the generosity of several individuals who are interested in Fryeburg Academy and in the ad- vancement and recognition of worthy students. 1.

CLIFFORD GRAY Manager: PAUL HAR'rsoN The Fryeburg Academy nine rounded out a fairly successful season by garner- ing 6 wins against 4 losses. ln the Western Maine Conference, Fryeburg with only two losses was second to South Paris who had defeated us twice. In the conference, Fryeburg finished with a record of 5 wins and 2 defeats, rain forcing us to cancel one game. Among the most exciting of these games was the one with Gould at Fryeburg: with the score tied, Dale Richardson came in to relieve in the seventh inning, and held Gould scoreless while his teammates belted out 2 runs to clinch the game. The best-pitched game was against Norway High, when Iabee Ward turned in a one-hitter: and against this same team, Dale Richardson allowed but two hits to gain a 9-2 win. In the second Gould game, Iabee Ward again turned the trick to defeat the Huskies II-6, with the timely hitting of his teammates counting in the clutches. Fryeburg also registered wins against Mexico and Bridgton High, losing to the Bowdoin I. V.'s and Bridgton Academy. Power hitters Iabee Ward, Ken Abbott, Clem Hartford, and Chuck Walsh all hit .300 or over, and the fielding of Emore Alexander, Clif? Barnes, and Dick Walker aided in the cause.

We were in the seventh inning and the score was tied 3-3. With men on second and third bases and one out, Pop called for the squeeze play in the hope of scoring 62 The Academy Bell the man on third base. The batter bunted the first pitch right out to the pitcher. The pitcher fielded the ball and threw it to the catcher who was covering home plate. The catcher braced himself for the collision and it came like a thunderbolt hitting a tree. When the dust cleared, the ball was on the ground and our base runner was sprawled over home plate with the Winning run. THE SQUAD 3b-B. Burnell s.s.-K. Hutchins Ib-H. Carlson r.f.-C. Eastman p-R.

Returning for his second year, Coach Shea, with old and new material reporting, combined them to make a First class team. Starting off with a 19-0 win over a strong Bridgton High, Fryeburg began to roll. Francis Hartford easily went over during the second half of the Bridgton game on an end run to start the T.

And minutes later, labee Ward rushed through the line to end all scoring for the day making the final score 12-o. Scrappy Norway proved tougher opposition. Holding a 6-o lead over out squad for the first three periods, Norway Finally became stalemated by a sudden change of tactics on the part of the Fryeburg team. Bob Churchill, intercepting a pass on the 3-yard line, raced 97 yards to tie thc score with Norway. Seconds later, with less than three minutes to play, Bob Churchill completed a pass, again went for a touchdown, and made the hnal score I2-6. Because of the cancellation of the Brewster game an intersquad duel was planned. Splitting the squad as evenly as possible, with P. Gfs against seniors, otherwise known as the White Phantoms and the Black Stallions, Coach Shea produced a duel that was an interesting and successful venture. Bob Brown, quarterback forthe P. Gfs, went over in the last period to break the scoreless tie. A Brown to Peirce pass completed the tally for a 12-0 score. The Black Stallions, although losing, proved to be excellent sportsmen and football players. lt was only when the final whistle had blown that they admitted defeat. Fryehurg's next challenge was Hebron's l. Vfs. Putting three quick touch- downs over in the second period gave Fryeburg its score, with Hebron getting 64 The Academy Bell only one touchdown. Half-back Bob Brown accounted for two of the touch- downs. Bucking the line for Fryeburg, Bob went over for the first touchdown. intercepting a pass on the 50-yard line, he went over again for the second touch- down of the game. A Cole to Peirce pass accounted for the third tally of the game and the final 18-6 score. Despite tricky playing and excellent line and back combinations, the Fryeburg eleven lost to Gould Academy. The first half was all Gould's as they went over for two touchdowns. Coming back in the third period with renewed Fight, Frye- burg romped over Gould to tie the score 12-12. A pass to Churchill accounted for the first Fryeburg touchdown. In the last minutes of the third period a Cole to Alexander pass netted 20 yards to put the ball on the one-foot line. The fourth period started with Fryeburg scoring on a fourth down buck by Alexander. Gould opened up with passes in the last period, scoring two more touchdowns to make the final score 25-I2. The game, although hard fought all the way, was especially clean.

Any boy who has earned his varsity sports letter at Fryeburg Academy is automatically a member of this club. The purpose of the organization is to pro- mote greater interest in athletics and better sportsmanship. Membership is also recognition of the athletic ability of the individual. Officers elected by the members for the year were as follows: president, Bob Harrimang vice president, Mike Peirce, and secretary-treasurer, Bob Brown. Our premier activity was the sponsoring of the Football Dance. Mike Peirce was appointed general manager, while most of the members served on various committees. With the aid of Lloyd Rafnell's fine music, the dance was a great success, a fact which greatly encouraged the club members. The Varsity Club was also instrumental in the organization of the boys' inter-class basketball tournament.

Fryeburg also placed well up in other meets by taking second places in a triangular meet at Gould and the County Meet at Rum- ford. After receiving another second Qnext to Hebronj at Bates in the mile relay, a special squad was selected to compete in the state meet. Although competing with 26 schools, Fryeburg flashed with Teddy Davey setting a record of I64 feet 4M inches in the javelin throw. Connie Eastman gathered in a first in the mile and a second in the 880, while Bob Churchill tied for first place in the high jump. The season was quite successful, Davey and Eastman leading the team all the way. Harriman and Peirce in the weights and Churchill in the high jump also did their part in making things hum. RICHARD HILL, ,4Q SKIING THIS year, for the first time, the girls have had a ski team. We were in one meet at Kent's Hill, February 5, and there is going to be another meet with West- brook Iunior at Pleasant Mountain, Bridgton, on March I2. None of the girls has ever raced before, so this is something entirely new. Before our race at Kent's Hill, Paula Kann, member of the 1948 Olympic team, came to Pine Hill and gave us valuable instruction in slalom technique. We were quite taken aback by what we found at Kent's Hill: six other teams and some very rough courses. The teams competing were University of Maine, University of New Hampshire, Westbrook Iunior College, Waynflete, Deering, Kent's Hill, and F ryeburg. However, although we compiled only 83.5 points, we did not feel badly, considering our inexperience. Barbara Bowles was the first Fryeburg girl in both downhill and slalom. The other members of the team were Iune Davis, Anne Tebbitt, and Dorcas Blaich. The ski team had rather a bad break this year not having an appreciable amount of snow until the last of Ianuary. This snow came in time to hold the Sadie Hawkins ski meet at Pine Hill. Ronald Hill took first for the boys and Iune Davis for the girls. The team entered the state meet and took fifth in the downhill and fourth in the slalom. They have one more meet yet to come. Ronald Hill, Harry Kramer, Bernard Watt, William Fessenden, and Clyde Eastman made up the members of the team and were coached by Mr. Eldon BOYS' BASKETBALL FRONT Row, left tu right: Keniietli Hutchixis, Howard NVarfl, Francis Hartforcl.

CILYDE E,xsTM.xN, '-jo BASKETBALL 1949 Coach: CHARLES A. Corroiv Mamzgcr: IOHN FITTS Captain: ROBERT W. CHURCHILL WINNING I2 of a I6 game schedule, Fryeburg brought to a close the ,4Q basket- ball season. Under the capable coaching of Mr. Cotton, and with such men as Bob 'fStretch', Churchill, Emore Alexandgr, Iabee Ward, Phil Cole, and Francis Hartford swishing them in, it was no wonder that the hoopsters held such a creditable record. Bob Churchill, offensive mainstay of the Academy five. led the scoring in all games, but it was in games such as the Sanford and Bridgton tilts that his worth was really shown. Scoring 23 of the 47 points for Fryeburg, Bob gave an example of good basketball playing as he snared rebounds again and again to set up plays for the Academy five. It was Phil's final foul shot and Bob's last-second basket that closed the tally Fryeburg 47, Sanford 46. The Bridgton Academy game was an excellent show of Fryeburgfs might as Bob Brown, Eric Love, Mike Peirce, Ken Hutchins, and lack Williams all showed their worth. Coming ahead in the second quarter with a score of 26-I6 68 The Academy Bell seemed to give the Fryeburg hoopsters too much confidence. This was shown by the score at the end of the third quarter as Fryeburg lagged 38-39. Rallying in the last few minutes of play, the Fryeburg Hve became successful as Bob Stretch Churchill again tossed in the deciding basket to clinch the game for Fryeburg 5352- Coach Cotton, not content with having a powerful first team, has developed his remaining men into good players who are capable of taking over any position on the first team five, and thus has developed a team that has successfully met all Challengers.

V. BASKETBALL OF a thirteen game schedule, the Fryeburg V. Won six and lost seven. The in- valuable experience gained by Coach Shea's five has made them into players that will be valuable to next year's varsity.

FIELD HOCKEY GROUND sticks, ground sticks, ground and hit, over here, and let's go. These are familiar sounds heard on the athletic Held from three to four o'clock in the fall. Our hockey team's schedule began with a play day at Deering for both junior and senior varsity. We were one of the seven schools represented. The others were Cony, South Portland, Deering, Wilton Academy, Waynflete, and Westbrook Iunior College. A round robin tournament of fifteen games was scheduled in which the Fryeburg teams participated during the forenoon and afternoon. Following luncheon, we saw movies of techniques and tactics of hockey. Be- fore leaving we enjoyed tea. We appreciate the hospitality of the Deering girls who provided a most profitable and enjoyable day. The varsity played the first game with Waynflete on their Held. We lost 4-0. The next three games were played on our own field with both the varsity and junior varsity participating. South Portland, Deering and Waynlflete all took home victories from the varsity squad. The three junior varsity games were played with Waynflete, South Portland, and Deering. We battled to a scoreless tie with Waynl-lete, but lost to the others.

MARCIA STEARNS, ,4Q GIRLS' BASKETBALL Coach: MARGARET KILLMAN Manager: LOUISE DAVIS AFTER our inter-class basketball games were over we gathered our best material and developed a varsity team with our most promising players for a second squad. The season began with the Bridgton Academy game which we won by a sub- stantial margin. During our winter carnival, an enthusiastic Alumnae team played our Academy girls. Our First defeat was suffered at the hands of Bridgton High. The girls played a hard game but were outclassed by the well-trained Bridgton squad. Our losing streak continued as we were edged out by Bridgton Academy. ln our last game of the season with Waynflete, the Fryeburg girls again proved their ability by winning with a good score to their credit.

BARBARA TUFTs, ,go GIRLS' ATHLETIC COUNCIL Tina Ci. A. C. is an organization made up of thirteen girls interested in athletics. A new council is elected at the end of each school year by the retiring group. Miss Killman, tl1e girls' physical education instructor, is our faculty adviser. The purpose of the council is to keep in order a graded point system by which a girl may win her numerals, letter, pendant, or ring, and schedule games with other schools. With the help ofthe Y-Teen officers and their faculty adviser, the group spon- sors an annual Sadie Hawkins Heyday. This year the carnival held on lanuary 27 and 28 was a great success. The council also arranges a banquet each year for all the varsity players and substitutes.

It was a beautiful day. There was only one thing wrong, the temperature was about thirty degrees too high! It was the day that the Fryeburg Academy girls were to entertain three visiting schools with a play day, February 19th, to be exact. An extensive program had been planned with skiing, skating, snowshoeing, and basketball on the agenda. The four schools participating were Fryeburg, Norway, Gould, and Dixfreld. Because of the poor skiing and snowshoeing conditions, those two events were called off. The Hrst event of the morning was an exhibition of broomstick hockey put on by the Fryeburg and Dixfreld girls. This was sort of a combination of foot- ball and hockey. After that there were relay races on the ice. There were two sets of races, each between two teams composed of girls from all the represented schools. Then the winners and the losers played off. The team colors were red, blue, yellow, and green. When the skating events were over, the girls went to the gym and played basketball until dinner. Our visitors ate in the home economics room. They brought their lunches, and hot chocolate was served here. After dinner, since they weren't tired of it, the girls played more basketball. When the games were over there were relay races and a dodge ball game. All kinds of relays were run, including potato, hop, and bag races. About three oiclock the girls departed, tired but happy. We sincerely hope they had as much fun participating in the play day as we did putting it on. The winning teams placed as follows: red, yellow, blue, and green. The girls representing Fryeburg on the winning team were Ann Tebbitt and Nancy Nutter. DoRcAs BLAICH, ,49 n ' .ggi-y.g.gg-g.g.g,.g.y,.g.X.55.5.1.5.g-g.g.g.g.g.y.x.g.g.x-3. 209 S. St. Asaph St. Alexandria, Va. February 23, 1949 DEAR Miss BLAICH: Your letter should have been answered sooner, to make sure of meeting your deadline, but, lately my life has been so full of deadlines, I've neglected my cor- respondence. You see, I write advertising for VVoodward and Lothrop, the most noted fadvj department store in Washington, and we've just been turning out reams of copy for our Anniversary. Advertising is glamorous only from the out- side: it's really frantic, provocative, provoking-and fun. The last, chiefly because it attracts a wide variety of highly individual people. Not me: I'm almost too sane for it-and average. Which brings me to one reason why I'm a poor subject for a biographical sketch: I've done nothing at all impressive. Another reason: I'm not really an Academy graduate. I was a senior, some- what successfully, but when we lived in Fryeburg, I'd just finished half my junior year in a Washington high school, so I hadn't credits for graduation. I went on to Tufts, majored in English, was graduated in 1923. Thatls about all unless you want to pad the record by saying I'rn living again in the Virginia city of my childhood. I read Elizabethan personages in my spare time, if any, like the theatre and concerts very muchg just got over being treas- urer of the Washington Fashion Group, live in a household where the youngest is pressing 5, and eldest 85-fun. That's enough! But certainly nothing dazzling. Sorry, I can't do better for you. Sincerely, ELEANOR LEADBETTER HOWARD C. ELA Howmzn C. ELA graduated from Fryeburg Academy in 191 1. After his gradua- tion he worked in a mill owned by Gibson, Bosworth, and Twombly in Fryeburg for one and a half years. In September, 1913, after the death of his parents, he went to Massachusetts. He was graduated from the Boston School of Anatomy and Embalrning in 1914 and entered the employ of David Fudge and Son, Funeral Directors in Cam- bridge, Massachusetts, that same year. He has been the Vice President and As- sistant Treasurer of this concern since 1928. He left them during World War I and served 22 months as a sergeant of infantry. In 1919 he returned to the same The Academy Bell 77 firm and married Maude E. Phillips of Cambridge. They have two married sons and three grandchildren. Mr. Ela has held many prominent positions in and around Boston. He is affili- ated with all bodies of York Rite Masonry. He is a past president of the Sons of Maine Club of Somerville, Freedom Club of Boston, and Fryeburg Academy Alumni Association of Boston. LILLIAN SWAN FOLLOWING her graduation from the Academy in 1923, Miss Swan entered Bates College, and in 1927 received her A. B. degree. She began teaching, but not lik- ing it, she went to Boston and took an Executive Training Course at Iordan Marsh's in the fall of 1928. She stayed there for three years, rising to assistant buyer in the uniform and cotton dress departments. She next went to Gilchrist's where she obtained a similar position with two other departments added to her duties. Miss Swan remained at Gilchrist's twelve years during which time she became buyer of ladies, leather goods and neck- wear. When the war broke out she did essential war work in a plant for a year. She moved again to Hovey's where she was assistant buyer in the Teen-age shop. She stayed here for a year until she went to her sisteris in New Hampshire where she was employed in F. W. Woolworth's chain store. Finding this fascinating work, she transferred to Woolworth's chain store in Melrose, Massachusetts, as assistant buyer. Then she came home for a visit and decided to stay. At present Miss Swan is working in the ofiice of the Western Maine Forest Nursery at Fryeburg. HARRY IEWETT FOLLOVVING his graduation from Fryeburg Academy in 1920, Mr. Iewett was em- ployed at C. H. Robinson Paper Company in Portland for four years. The next year he returned to Fryeburg to become associated with his father in the ice cream manufacturing business, which he has continued to operate.
