It is also my privilege to introduce to you certain members of the Class of ' 40 who have been chosen on a basis of scholarship and leadership to address you. To My Classmates: Our years together in G. H. S. are nearing their termination, and we wonder where they have gone. On looking back, we realize that we have spent them in earnest endeavor for success as well as in the pleasures ex|)erienced in the social and athletic i hases of our education. At this time, I should like to thank you for the honor of being elected to represent you. I have found pleasure in these duties as well as in my regular work and athletic interests, and I hojie that I have carried them out to your satisfaction. l)ON. LD M. RSHALL Kn. PP • 56 • The Constitution and The American Ideal A ll persons born oi- naturalized in the I nited States, and subject to the juris¬ diction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.” This is the definition of a citizen of the United States as found in Amendment Fourteen of the Consti¬ tution. This definition means nut only that a citizen belongs to the United States and holds certain civil and political rights but also that he has in his possession the greatest American tradi¬ tion— the right of life, lil)erty, and the pursuit of ha])i)iness. This ideal was first established by the framers of the 1 )eclaration of Independence, who under King (.Jeorge’s tyranny fully realized the value and the necessity of these rights. 1 shall strive to show how the Constitution is related to this ideal. First of all, the right of life. This is the most cherished })ossession that man has. The majority of j)ersons have a natural fear of losing their lives and will do almost anything to retain them. Let us use as an example a refugee from one of the countries in Europe. He is looking for a new home. It is logical to assume that one whose life is constantly threatened by war, revolution, and mob violence would seek the place where the safety of his life would be guaranteed. Therefore our refugee comes to the United States because his guarantee is the Constitution. Any individual’s life is protected to the utmost by that great written document. Let us assume that our refugee has become a United States citizen. Becoming curious about the Constitution, he acciuires a copy of it and learns many interesting facts. He finds in Article One, Section Eight, that Congress is the sole part of the government that has the power to declare war. Since the United States is a representative democ¬ racy, Avar cannot be declared unless the ])eople desire it. If there is no war, there is no mass slaying. Conseciuently, the life of our citizen is more secure. For the defense of the country the Constitution grants Congress the power to raise a Xavy and an Army. The latter, however, is restrained from gaining power and threatening the nation, since appropriations are gi ' anted for only two years at a time. t)ur citizen is jirotected to the maximum against a revolution, since no movement of this type can be successful Avithout the army behind it. Also, our citizen is protected by a system of Federal Courts. At the head is the Supreme Court. This body sees that no harmful hiAvs are enacted. If there is a minimum of bad laAvs, there is a minimum of riots and other forms of mob violence. Thus the new citizen finds that his life is A ' ery secure because of these and other Avritten guaran¬ tees in our Constitution. Further, let us consider the right of liberty. This has ahvays been a goal men lunx ' struggled to attain. To l)e i)ersecuted because of one’s religion; to be forbidden to express one’s opinions; and to be forbidden to meet Avith one’s felloAv beings is merely a mechanical existence; it is not living. To a i)crson Avho has lived under such conditions life in America seems like paradise, ' hliis is due to the C.’unstitutiun. The AX ' ry first amendment says that the people luiA’e freedom of Religion, S])eech, Press, and Assembly. Our neAv citizen (luickly and gratefully takes advantage of these rights. He joyfully finds that he may Avorshij) Avherever and hoAvever he jileases; that he may say just Avhat he thinks Avithout the threat of a prison sentence hanging over him; that he may read the actual truth of Avorld events and not some selfish dictator’s translation; that he may assemble Avith others to decide and do Avhat they think best. Liberty! X o man can live long Avithout it until he becomes a living machine, a slave, acting under another’s Avill. The Constitution guarantees liberty to those Avho are under the jurisdiction of the United States. Perhai)s the longe.st chase that man has eA’er knoAvn is the pursuit of hap])iness. It started ages before history began and is still going on. The United States is the nation that aids its ])eople most in capturing this elusive (piest. The Cunsti- • 0 • tiition is the element tliat supplies this heljn Article One, Section Eight, says that Congress has the ])ower to i)rovi(le for the Cleneral Welfare of the United States. Let me illustrate what has been done with this l)Ower. (Ireat electricity-iirodiicing dams have been built; millions of lives have been saved from dreaded diseases by water-purifying and sewage disposal plants; and irrigation and flood-control l)rojects have been constructed. Eurthermore, the working conditions in the United States are the best in the world. No one has sur{)assed our public school system. The saying, “Every man’s house is his castle,” can be attributed to Amendments Three, Four, and Five. Relative to protecting the privacy of the j eotde, these amendments state that soldiers cannot be (luartered in private homes; i)eo}de and their property cannot be searched without a warrant; and all i)rivate i)roperty is to be resi)ected. Now, with these rights and ])rivileges, among many others, there is little reason to believe that the people of the United States should not have made considerable in-ogress toward their object — happiness. Thus, a citizen must always remember and respect the Constitution, for it is the guarantee of his life, liberty, and happiness, and it is the back¬ bone of the FTnited States government. Without it, the country which today is ours could never have existed! As it is, however, the United States of America — free, strong, and unafraid — should go on living with its great ideal, setting a glorious exam]de to the rest of the world. Ceorge B. rd Brooks . 58 . H ousehold Arts Department of the Greenfield Vocational School O NE of the most i)ractical courses given in our liigli school is the Household Arts course. Its chief objective is to develop ability to be worthy working members of the family. Our course consists of training in Home Economics and in academic work. In our Household Arts course our academic work consists of English, Social Studies, Science, Consumer Education, and Store Service. Our objectives in English have been to gain command of exj)ression which will help us in the most practical way, in business and social life. To this end we have ])ractice in speaking before our class, and drill in corrective English. The main aim in our written English has been to im¬ prove in letter writing, since most of our writing in later life will be confined to that phase. In Social Studies, we first have a course in good manners and desirable personality traits. Next we study United States History, and Economics, considering Economics mainly from the stand- ])oint of earning a living and managing an income. In Science, our work is related to our Household Arts course. We study Bacteriology in relation to food preservation and health. Food values and reciuirements of the human system are learnetl. c have practice in simple repairs recpiiring a knowledge of systems of plumbing, heating, and water sui3])ly. In Consumer Education, we learn how to judge values, and choose wisely, so as to get the most for our money in buying. Since many of our grouj) find employment in retail selling, we have a course in Store Service which gives us training in the teclmiciue of selling, and the necessary drill in English and Mathematics. HOME ECONOMICS Because home making is one of the largest occupations in the country we are being ti ' ained for a field that is very imimrtant in scope. Our course is ]danned so that we have both clothing and food study throughout the year. This helps in correlation, and gives a more homelike experience. In our foods work, we not only prepare and serve the food, but also learn the nutrition of foods and balancing of the food budget. Our first lessons are the cooking of meats, vegetables, fish, salads, and desserts, and then we serve complete meals to which we invite teachers, parents, and classmates. We learn to do onr own l)lanning of menus, estimating costs, and buying sup})lies. Our clothing work consists of garment construc¬ tion, selection, aiul proper care of clothing. We make garments such as smocks, underwear, street and si)ort clothes, evening dresses, children’s clothes aiul household articles. We also do a great deal of renovation of garments that have been discarded, but still have a great deal of value when remodeled. Belated to our course in Home Economics, we have Laundry and Home Care, and Art AVork in which we study Interior J fecoration and Costume I iesigning. To round out our training as home¬ makers, we are taught Home Hygiene, Child Care, and Family Relationships. In these courses, we discuss and try to settle many problems that must be solved in order to have a successful and happy life. Our e(iuipment in both foods and clothing laboratories is excellent and complete, and is oi)en at all times to those who wish to see the work we do. This work is of value not only to the individual, but also to the community, for the ideals of living are furthered by homemakers who are trained in the knowledge and skills necessary in the management of a healthy, ha))py home. . 59 . Barbar. Thelma Colby Music Plays a Part B y means of cnulcly or skillfully made in¬ struments or his own voice, man has always had and known music for comfort, l)leasnre, and necessity. Produce melody, harmony and rhythm, and you have music. The beginnings of music are to be found in nature herself. The howling of the winds, the humming of insects, the cries of animals, the songs of birds must all be considered as elemental music, in as much as they contain the two fundamental elements thereof: rhythm and tone. For untold ages music appealed mostly to people’s emotions. A mother sang to her child to comfort him and lull him to slcci). A lover sang to his lady to show his love for her. Natives of a primitive tribe beat atom-tom to stir themselves into spiritual emotion. At the present time, music appeals both to our minds and to our emotions. IMiisic has wonderful pt)wers of consoling man. It is said that this i)leasure that he derives from the art is clue to five causes: the elementary power of tone, form, association, symbolization, and sympathetic agitation. Man listens to a piece of music which tells a story about or around some object or experience in life. If that music has the right tone, if it gives the right ex])ression, if it creates within him an understanding, an image or knowledge of this object, then he truly ai)preciates the music language. Through this interpretation of the music lan¬ guage, i)eople receive an understanding about things they never have seen or heard. Ideas arc changed and developed by music’s useful mes¬ sages. Music helps people to get away from their cu ' ei’yday thoughts and habits and draws them fi’oni the real life to the life of ])lea.sant unreality. In this way they learn to aicpreciatc true music. All composers when writing music have a reason for doing so. Some have ideas they wish to give to the world, some imitate the sounds of nature, some exjeress their •iews of this present-day life, and some interpret the simple and whole. ome things in life for others to enjoy. Instead of writing these facts down to be read from books, they write them down to be transformed into sound, where expression and inter])retation may be given and felt more fully. Alusic from all the ages, if put in consecutive order, would tell the history of this world. In the various forms that music takes, such as orchestra, song, dance, piano, and opera, arc found the expression and the atmosi)herc of the jicriod in which it was written. ■ I )uring the medieval days the music was largely comix)sed of songs made up by traveling trouba¬ dours telling the adventures of fighting knights. Later on, the songs were filled with the romance of life and nature. Then came royal dances of many steps which varied in form according to the custom and dress of the i)criods. In this i)rogress of the races, civilizations rose and fell. IMusic signifying sadness, gladness, victory, anti remorse was written and is still being- written. This music tells of struggles once entlured and pleasures once cnjoyetl. By its means man can contrast the life of yesterday with that of totlay. In this way music is and will be a record of history. Today there are three distinct musical paths: vocal forms, solo instrumental forms, and orches¬ tral music. iMost peoi)le appreciate music, but they understand it differently. One person may listen to nothing but oj eras, another may want piano, and another may prefer orchestral music. No matter wliicli one they desire, as long as they derive a pleasurable understanding from it they will benefit in knowledge, interpretation, and aj)- preciation eciually. This is because each of these paths of music runs in a i)arallel line with the others, and therefore, furnishes three ways in which to enjoy one art. There are peoi)le who neither play an instru¬ ment nor sing, but every one of them has benefited by music. INIotion i)ictures, radio studios, churches, clubs, etc., all use music to help in creating the expression and feeling needed. In one of these many activities man must take ])art to keep his place in life. Life wonld be dull and toneless, and man wonld not receive of life its full value if music did not play its ])art. IIOBEKT AuXOLD BkOCKLESBT • 60 . Liberty and Union L IBIUvTY and union are ])r()bal)Iy two of the most common words in the American vocabulary, but the fact that they are so common detracts from their true meaning. We in the United States (I shall call ns Americans for want of a better word), are so busy rushing here and there that we do not stop to realize what these two words mean, what jnirt they play in onr lives. They are trnly American. Nowhere else in the world, not even in the democracies of France, Fngland, or South America, do these two words have such importance. Tliey are the foundation of our democracy. When the Uonstitutional Convention met in 1787, the membei ' s had no intention of framing a Constitution. Their aim was merely to revise the Articles of Confederation, but instead that body of men formed a new Constitution. This document created union by i)roviding for a strong central government, which would be sipierior to the state governments. However, the jicople were not satisfied until the Bill of Rights was added. This Bill comi)riscs the first ten amendments and insures personal liberty. The ratification of the Constitution was an important turning ])oint in our history as it provided for American liberty and union. Tbrough the century and a half which have l asscd, the Constitution of the United States has never ceased to function. It has not been over¬ thrown by jiersons ambitious for power as has licen the case in several European countries, for example, Si)ain. Through it our democratic form of government has been made secure. The result has been a rich, strong, united country inhabited l)y a peace-loving pcoide who have the highest standard of living in the world. Life in America is often contrasted to that in Eurojie in order to bring Americans to a realiza¬ tion of the ideal conditions in which they live. There are thousands of stories of life in a European country. You all know a few, and perhaps some of you have had the actual experi¬ ence. Most of you know of the lack of opportuni¬ ties which exists for the average man in Euroi)e. If a man is a farmer, his son must follow that same trade. He has no chance to get ahead, because he can’t ' get an education or the necessary money. Thei’e, class distinctions are very sharp, and everything tends to hold a man in his own class. Thus his liberty is at stake. On the other ha.nd, this is not so in America. The only rerjuire- ment for advancement is willingness to work and learn. An immigrant has as good a chance to become a millionaire as a American-born man has. There is only a limited freedom in Europe. A man can not even speak his mind on subjects of national importance, those in which everyone should have a voice. He must sit back (|uictly, and after the leaders have reached a decision he must accept it and abide by it. In America the people have the right to vote and can elect leaders who will do their bidding. I suppose that a form of union exists in the various countries over there, but I can not honestly honor it by calling it such. It really is not a union because the masses of the i)eople had nothing to do with its formation; they were simply forced by strong political leaders to live under one government. The so-called unions which exist were not formed to aid the ])eo])le, as was ours, but rather to strengthen the ambitions. Thus, it is only natural that some of the oppressed peo})le should turn their eyes from the darkness and misery of their homes t.o the bright¬ ness and promise of America. They came to this country by the thousands and left behind them poverty, ignorance, tyranny, and what i)ractically amounted to slavery. They faced the future with courage and the conviction that here in this, their promised land, they wonld have an opi)ortunity to bnild new lives ami fortunes. d’lu ' re are many, many stories of courageous immigrants who have found hapi)iness and success here. I should like to tell you one that has recently been brought to my attention and one in which I am interested. . 61 • File man of whom I am going to tell yon was a professor in a European university. He was very intelligent and was a marvelous teacher. Enfortimatcly, he flid not approve of the way in which his country was being managed, and he intimated this fact to a friend. From then on he lived in fear of being sent to concentration cam] ' ). The government interfered with his work at the University and told him what he could and could not teach. Conditions grew worse daily. Finally, this man, leaving all his possessions behind him, escaped to a friendly sea ]mrt in a neighboring country. There he embarked for America. Almost instantly upon his arrival in America he was presented with a in-ofessorshi] ' ) in one of our better-known colleges. Our professor accei ' )ted this offer and started a new life. Here lie had no fear of concentration cam])s or government inter¬ ference. He enjoyed all the liberties which belong to jreoide living in this country. As his salary was considerable, he was able to save a jiart of it, and now he owns his own home and takes trijis throughout our country. He is very haiijiy and thanks (tod daily for such a country. I think that this story and its many conpianion ones jirovc a very imjiortant point with resjicct to the feeling which immigrants have for this country. Because they have lived in such terrible conditions, conditions in which human beings received no consideration and were only tools of a higher iiower, these unfortunate iieojile apjire- ciate our country with its union, freedom, and chance for advancement much more than an American-born j ' lerson does. They can realize how wonderful, how almost unbelievable, it is that people of so many different races can live together in peace. Here they find all the things they wanted: education, the right to vote, decent living conditions, amusements, an oiDiiortunity to make something of themselves, and a chance to live and breathe and call their soids their own. The majority of us here cannot understand how much these things mean because we have never been without them. That is the reason why I claim that you and I can say liberty and union, and they will just be two every-day words to us. On the other hand to a man or woman who has lived in the chaos abroad these two words mean America and all the wonderful things to be found here. True liberty and union must always go together, and years ago Daniel Webster knew that this was so when he said, “Liberty and union, now and forever, one and inseparable.” Alay these words be the rule by which we will l)attern our every thought and deed that America may ever remain a shrine of peace and justice! Alice Frances Welch . 62 • Printing, Its First Five Hundred Years r“| HIS year we are eoimncinorating the I oOOth anniversary of the invention of i)rinting. Though ])rinting was ]n ' aetice(l sinee the 9th eentury in China, it remained for (liitenberg to reveal that movable ty]ic, iinjirac- tieal in th.c Chinese language with its thousands of {‘haraeters, was {)erfect for the Western alpha¬ bets, whose letters were not so ninnerous as the Cdniiese. It was in 1440 that Cliitenberg began his experimenting with movable type. A ten years’ work enhninated in tlie printing of the Bible, the first iniiKjrtant work to be indnted and the most in demand, remaining a “best-seller” even to this day. The work was costly and laborious, but com¬ pared to the handcopying which the monks had to do, which made their manuscripts so valuable that they had to be chained in monastery libraries with only a small circle to read them, its s])eed was sjX ' ctacular. Just as spectacular was the young art’s influ¬ ence. (trowing rapidly it attracted many artists who were enhanced by the ever-widening horizon which it disclosed. They designed new tyjic faces for beauty as well as readability; clearly printing’s artistic values were not to be left languishing while the ideas it was distributing received all the attention. The thoughts were now being cx])rcsscd in a medium with which it was becoming jmssible to reach all (dasses of iieople. New ideas of govern¬ ment and religion s])read rajudly; the Reforma¬ tion, one of the many changes which ])rinting speeded up, came during the first century of the trade’s existence. America contributed greatly in the develop¬ ment of the next milestone in the progress of ]U’inting, the mechanical jiress. Treadwell, a New Fmgland macliinist adopted the lever ])rinciple for the jol)-press. (lordon, anotlier American, devel¬ oped it. By the end of the 19th century the job. cylinder, and rotary presses were all in use. Man-power had been reidaced with steam-iiower, to be followed l)y electricity. These large })resses powered with electricity made i)ossible the present-day newspapers. These daily newspaiiers became the exponents of the new conceptions of the day; editors, the leaders of new causes. They could wield the ])owerful weapons of publicity and criticism with¬ out fear because the trial of Zeanger of New York in colonial times established a free press. This ideal was later incorporated in the Constitution. This was the day of Garrison and Lundy, who used their newspapers during the Civil AVar i)eriod to further their humanitarian cause, abolition. This was the day of the editor-printer Horace Greeley and his Go AVest, young man, go AVest!” This was the day when any young man wanting to make a name for himself and desiring a well- rounded education went into printing. There he came in contact with every idea of any great influence. His was a well-informed dew on any topic. New developments in news])a])er ])roduction included machine type-setting and ]uctures. Mer- genthaler in ' 1884 had perfected the linoty])e machine making it possible to set the type for a whole newspaper in two or three hours. The addi¬ tion of pictures completed the whole. AVhile block-])rints had been used for centuries — Guten¬ berg first ])rinted with them until he conceived the idea of breaking them up into movable blocks using the same designs over again but arranged differently — it was not possible to gain exact like¬ nesses with them. Zinc line-cuts were used exten¬ sively in newspai)er woi ' k, but they too could not reproduce realistically. However, a new ]n-ocess, photo-engraving came into its own in the latter part of the 19th century. AA’ith it, it was ])ossible to reproduce anything in minute details. The process involves the use of photograj hy and chemistry. In the beginning artists had “brought up” the young trade. Now inventors and ingenious scien¬ tists proffered their aid in developing all phases and bringing forth revolutionary methods of ])rint- ing. In the 2()th century the combination of art, . 63 . science, and invention, all working together in printing, began to view the magnificent fruit of their labor. Color j-jrinting came in to stay. Aim¬ ing at beauty and realism, as well as cheapness and speed, offset and lithographic methods of printing were introduced and perfected. Attention was given to the faults of the shoj); its dangers were gradually eliminated. Machines were fitted with guards and protectors. Modern methods of ventilation were introduced. Printers no longer workcfl with no tliought for tlicir own health and well-being. To understand the ])coplc who use their skill and ])ower to produce influential ideas, we must look to the organization which has kept them together for so long, their famous union. During the medieval period all books were kept and reproduced in monasteries. After the invention of pi’inting it became a ( luild trade — the guild being the fore-runner of the ju’esent day union and very much like it with its system of dividing printers into classes; the master-printer, journeyman, and apprentice, the first being highly skilled, the second becoming so, and the third, learning the trade. Printers have always been fighting for better wages, working conditions, and other bene¬ fits, using their most powerful weapon, the strike. In England around 1840, a grou}) of printers went on strike because steam-]H)wer was brought into a shop, throwing large numbers of men out of work. The strike was settled amical)ly because the workers were absorbed into other parts of the l)lant. The first jn ' inters’ strike in America was in 177(5, for higher wages. This was not a union strike however; the workers in a sho]i in Philadel¬ phia hccamc dissatisfied with starvation wages and agreed among themselves to strike. Rather like a modern ncwspajicr reads the history of the Planters’ Ifnion. Ranking sixth in financial importance in industry in the United States, and among the first fifteen employing the most people, ])rinting would come nearer still to the top in a scale of social necessities. It is hard to realize what we would do without the myriad little things lU ' inting pi’oduces, things that individually seem iinim- IKirtant but collectively become all im]K)rtant; things which assume prominence only when missed. The modern ])rint-shop is a far cry from that of 500 years ago. Time and labor-saving machines have relieved greatly the tediousness and difficulties of the jn ' intcr’s work. The industry’s influence during its existence has been incalculable even as its future influence is immeasurable. Adajrtable, jiractical and uni¬ versal, it can truly be said to be the greatest invention, one of the most i)erfcct expressions of man’s ingenuity, since the first wheel was set rolling thousands of years ago.

Pl. ce; ( ' )n a desolate, small peninsula at the corner of a small ])iece of land hidden away in an obscure jiart of the world called Federal and Sanderson vStrait. Char. cters: i Ir. and IMrs. Who’s Yahoodi. Scene: A few quivering cocoanut trees and two dazed persons who haven’t recovered from their senior banquet and nightlife of 40 years ago. Action: 40 years of constant mumbling and try¬ ing to find out who nicknamed them “Who’s Yahoodi?” Mrs. Yahoodi: Hey, there, don’t you remember what hapiiened after i Ir. Smith gave you that white paper and you ran because you thought it was another graduation bill? Mr. Yahoodi: Gosh, I don’t, Yahoo. Don’t you think we’d better start rejiroducing the scene from the beginning of that first day when we entered G. H. S. as Sojihomores? That might help us a lotto solve our problem. Here comes a worm. Ask him for some water. Mrs.: (Asks the poor insignificant little worm.) He said to ask Mr. Watt. Mr.: Wait! It is all coming back. As I remember, we entered as future alumni of ’40 on one hot blistering day in the fall. Mrs.: I can remember now. After a few days of rushing into wrong rooms, we became accjuainted with the various teachers in their four-walled rooms. Mr.: Class politics was the first step in this school of democracy. The Reimblicans, (and they are still trying) lost out. and “Joe” Maleno held the reins as president on the Democratic ticket to give us a “New Deal.” “Bev” Bruce and Gordon Weir were ' ice Presidents, Eleanor Bobichaud, Secretary, and Jean Powers, Treasurer. Mrs.: The synqiathetic Juniors made us feel at home that next month of October by giving us the Sophomore Dance. We felt right at home and golly! it was fun dancing even though we were practically ignored by the Seniors, but time marched on. Barbara Colby gave our class the honor of having a fine singing voice and was jdaced among the winners of the Alpha Beta Pi Amateur Show. Mr.: How can we forget “Bottle” Brissette, the sliiijiery little Sophomore ball carrier, who, al¬ though a J. y., won the hearts of the whole community? He did a splendid job. Mrs.: Wasn’t he the one who started the popu¬ larity of a certain song about then? Mr.: Yes, every time we wanted a touchdown, the stands sang “Roll out the Barrel.” “Joe” Maleno was our star basketball jdayer, and Angelo Moschen was the king of the diamond for our class. Mrs.: As restful summer passed by, we enterefl as wiser .Tuniors. Some became more conscious of their duties and thought more seriously about college. Amiable Elsie Daysh was jiickcd for the presidency, and a successful year was in store for all. “Bev” Bruce and “Ollie” Marion were chosen as Vice Presidents, “Joe” iMaleno as Secretary, and Eleanor Daignault was to take care of the class finances. Boys and girls, girls and boys! We had finally acquired a little confidence, and there was no stopjiing us till graduation. Mr.: Oh, my head! Say, that tlid give us a head¬ ache. What a gang of little Sojdiomores came, but we felt sorry for them seeing that once we said, “Hello,” to the teachers, but now we say, “Hi”! We initiated the “yearlings” into our decorated gym and gave them the time of their lives with the Sophomore Reception — also a friendly bit of advice to leave the decorations alone — and for once they did because they were too short. Mrs.: More talent is uncovered every year even in athletics. “Herb” Clark, “Bottle” Brissette, “Butch” Szymakowski, and “.Jimmy” Turnbidl battled away for us in the varsity and nearly knocked Turners off its high horse-—even though it took another year, they did it. • 65 • Mr.: That’s right; they did. Gosh, how did wc become Yahoodis anyway? Mrs.: I flon’t know, hnt let’s keej) going, and we may hit a clew yet. Mr.: Onr final year was naturally onr most im¬ portant. How dignified we felt as Seniors. Donald Knap]) was given the honor of being President and “Bev” Brnce and “Joe” IMalcno were Vice Presidents. “Bev” managed to hold the same office for three years. Mrs.: IMarjorie Bolton was onr Secretary and Ruth Harris, onr Treasnrer. The fair opened onr busy year. Edson Crafts carried away most of the athletic awards. Onr cheer-leaders were ])ei)])y that year. I can see them now; Virginia Allen, Captain; Eleanor Robichand, arjorie Bolton, Gwendolyn Helbig, Louise Gandry, and Edward Bitzer. They did a fine job at cheering, bnt we won’t mention who carried away the cup. r.: Next came the Senior Play, “Bachelor Born.” Remember “Bob” Brocklesby, Janice Hodgen, Janice IMoody, Eleanor Robichand, Elvira Graham, Milton Brown, and good- looking “Eddie” Ethier? It was a gala night and the play went off veiw well. Mrs.: We won the Turners game, thanks to onr football stars. It was a fine i)iece of cooperation on everyone’s ])art. “Bntch” Szymakowski and “Dick” McGahanwere co-captains. Remember how slick the Drill Corps looked with Jean Powers as the snapjiy assistant drum major? [r.: Along with the snow in January came mid¬ years. Y’hat a headache they were! Mrs.: Al})ha Beta Pi, under the leadershij) of Virginia Allen, and Delta Sigma Rho, with Barbara Andrews as President, gave their annual formal dances which proved to be the social highlights of the year with styles right from “IMademoiselle.” (Of course, the boys al¬ ways looked nice.) Mr.: Later, the musical organizations gave their annual show, “Nautical IMarietta,” and in April they gave their Si)ring Concert in order to raise funds for festivals. George Brooks jiroved to be our orator with Rose Baruzzi right after him. “The Exponent” made great i)rogress with Emil Slowinski as Editor-in-chief. We had some very good journalists in our class. Mrs.: Before we knew it June was upon us. Came graduation with the Senior Banquet, Com¬ mencement Dance sjionsored by the Hi-A of which “Joe” Alaleno was President, and then — here we are. }fr.: Say, Who is ya hoodi? Mrs.: I guess it must be the class of nineteen footy. Beverly Eliz.4betii Bruce Joseph Anthony Maleno, Jr. . 66 . Class Prophecy cexk: f )rty •illc, Massachusetts (a ])lacc Charlie Chan hasn’t visited yet). Time: In the merry month of May, 1966. Ch. r. ( ' TErs: Mr. I. IT Hapiiy, Miss 0. U. Kidd. Prolocue: Miss (). Ih Kidd and iMr. I. R. Haiipy became stranded in the town of Fortyville. The pojnilation is made uj) entirely of the Class of ’40 and their descendants. At present they are discussing the events they have seen and e. ]ierienced. Miss O. U.; Isn’t that date bnrean that Emily Cashnig and Louise Caiidry have on Bresciano Street just fine? They have in their employ such “killers” as “Herb” Clark, “Bob” Bern¬ stein, “Ray” Drew, and Donald (friend of all skirts) liarton. Mr. I. R.: And how! They also have some pretty nice girls such as Helen Finn, “Chris” Allen, Mary Masterson, and Eileen Holmes. Miss 0. U.: Last night I saw jMr. and iMrs. Paid Bonrbean. She’s the former “iMarge” Bolton. Paul always said, “A Bonrbean selection is the height of perfection.” They were swinging it out at “Laughing John’s Chop House,” rim by John Harris. Mr. I. R.: Oli, yes, that’s where Elsie Daysh and “Phil” Woodlock are singing, and “Eddie” Ethier and his band are blasting it off. Miss (). I’.: Who plays in that band? .Mr. I. R.: Oh! there’s Itobert (never had a lesson in his life, and he sounds it I AVilkins at the trombone. Harold Shattnek at the washboard, and Clayton “African Joe” LaConnt at the drums. Good old Henry “Fei ' t” Piontek keeps time for them. Miss O. U.: Remember “Buddy” Powers? .Mr. I. R.: AA ' ho can forget him? .Miss (). U.: AA’ell, he’s the doorman there, and brgiina Messenger is the hat-check girl. Also, strutting around as cigarette girls were Arlene ( ' outnre, Martha De Xofrio, Sophie Machaiek, Blanche Machaiek, and Shirley Johnston. Mr. I. R.: Hai ' e you heard? All of the gowns for “Joe Miller’s Rooty-Toot Theatre” were de¬ signed by Eleanor Robichaud and “Bev” Bruce. They own the “Severe Styles Shoppe,” you know. MissO. V.: Yes, and wasn’t the scenery swell? It was designed by Edson (call me Tarzan) Crafts. And Roy Peterson did excejitionally well with the lighting effects. Mr. I. R.: Say, isn’t IMargaret Farr the General Manager there? Miss 0. U.: A es, and it’s there that “Dot” Greene has her girl ushers. Mr. I. R.: Ilh—uh—Jewel Fernandez, Shirley Flurie, Harriett Evans, Shirley Schouler, Ethel Phelps, Elaine Siano, Viola AA ' ood, and Ijaura Prasol. Miss 0. U.: Milton Brown is the backer of the show; he’s president of the local bank. Mr. I. R.: He has some fine men working in his bank; every man can handle nitro-glycerin like an expert. Miss O. V.: Yes, I noticed “Fingers” Blanchard, “Sing-Sing” Knap]), “Dead-eye” “Al” Grave- line, and “Chisel” McGuane. Mr. I. R.: Say — where were all those kids going this morning? Officer “Joe” Graveline said they were the families of Bliss, Hatch, Matthews, and Henry Krejmas. I was nearly tranpiled on. Miss (). U.: Oh, they — they were going to the dance recital given by members of Jean Powers and Alary Fotopulos’ Dancing School. Prudy Adams plays the jiiano for them. Guess whom I met U]) there. “Dick” AIcGahan and “Butch” Szymakowski. They were being taught the ballet. “Dick” is the jirincijial of the new high school, and “Butch” has charge of the class, “flow to Make Love with the Guitar.” .Mr. I. R.: Is that so? .Miss (). r.: Yep. Mr. I. R.: Funny—I never saw them around, although I did see some of the office helj). There was Rita Frappier, Helen Rogalski, Helen ( ' urtis, and Oiial Gray. . 67 . Miss 0. U.: Natalie CTiinn teaches algebra; Viola Ruther, Latin and French; Evelyn Casey in¬ structs history classes; and Virginia Allen teaches gym for girls, while “Joe” INIalcno has his Chemistry classes on edge with experiments of unknown results. Mr. I. R.: Isn’t Ronald Brissettc head of the sports for boys? Miss 0. U.: Yes, and with his assistant, John Alaloney, he’s turning out some very good teams, but, if it weren’t for the Daley twins and the “Red” Bartak triplets, many games would have been lost. Mr. I. R.: Say, Miss Kidd, who is the head of the art department? That really should have a good instructor. Miss 0. U.: You’re right VIr. Happy, and Laura Kalinowski fdls the bill, b ut say — were you over at the dedication of the Gordon Joslyn Air Field last Sunday? J r. I. R.: Yes, I was there. Did you see who was sporting flying licenses over there? Miss O.U.: No — who? r. I. R.: Well, there’s Richard Braff, William Fiskc, Wallace tSlecin Hollow) Jones, and Anthony Krejmas; they’re known as “The Four Foolish Flying Fortyites.” Miss O. U.: I stoj ped for lunch at “Dot” Burns and IMildred Garner’s “Soggy Sandwich Bar” and haven’t got over it yet. fr. I. R.: Oh, yes — I dropped in there, too. Tmcillc Asclin and “Win” Cash arc in charge of hash-slinging, while Alice Felix and hlary Fuchs are in charge of egg-dropjiing. Elvira Graham washes the crockery, and John Waitkus is on the receiving end ready to dry them. Miss O. V.: Luckily we could share the Apple k Clough Classy Cab Comi)any car to get back to town, but with “Bob” Guillow at the controls it’s a wonder we’re here at all. Mr. 1. R.: Yup — that’s one ride I’ll always remember. Miss 0. U.: F)id you see the way iMarjoric Le Baron and Richard Lyna jumped when we came breezing down Putnam Boulevard? Mr. I. R.; Yes, and Officer Brocklcsby wheeled up beside us on his scooter and told us to slow down. .Miss 0. U.: Remember, we didn’t know why until we sighted a huge fire. I figured it was either “Firebug” Frank, or the mad scientist, “Jimmy” Brown. Mr. I. R.: We met Police Chief Ralph Archer, who told us that the Are was in the “Roy IMcGuire Rattle Factory” and was started by AVilder AAYeks so the “Slowinski Sun Sentinel” could chalk up their first u]i-to-the-minute news item. Miss 0. U.: Yes— they usually had to wait for “Sleepy” Burniske to wake up and And out about it, and by that time it was past history. Mr. I. R.: There was near tragedy when the reservoir went dry. The reason was that “Bill” Thayer’s family had sent their supper dishes over there the night before. This was overcome when “Clayt” Cromack brought on some of his milk that Inspector Charles IMerrill found to be half water, and the Are was quenched within flfteen minutes. Miss 0. U.: After that we went back to the “Andrews’ Air-Conditioned Apartment House” where we saw “Doug” Bassett trying to sell “Ed” Bitzer and “Bob” Buhnan a set of Doris Berry’s Beautiful Bloom Seed Catalogs. He met with no success. So he ran down Simser Street to try and convince “Betty” Betsold and Stella Bonk that this was just what they needed if they wanted to raise hale and hearty children. Mr. I. R.: Do you recall that thing we saw uj-) in the sky? Miss O. U.: Yu]) — Richard Viclmctti’s blimp. He was advertising Roger Ormsby’s clothing store. Mr. I. R.: AA hy does he have all girl clerks? I noticed Irene Sullivan, Mary Russo, Helen Parley, and So] ' )hie Nowak. flss 0. U.: I hear that Manager Paul Terranova, thinks they make a swell decoy to attract customers. JJr. 7. 7?..- They do, but even if you do go in you can’t get waited on, because they’re all reafling “Gwen” Helbig and Christine O’Connell’s new funny book, “AAY’re All Right; It’s the AAYrld That’s AATong.” .Miss O. U.: Yej) — either reading or having a “taA’y-i)uH” as to where they are going to s|)end their vacation. J7r. 7. R.: Yesterday when I went in there they decided on Janice Hodgen’s Happy Health Haven, which is about flve miles from town. • 68 . Mhss (). r. I hoar that she has Russell Kimball as a earetakei’, Mildred Harris as the ehief masseuse, 1 )oruthy Sehneider as the hair dresser and “Dolly” Gallotto in charge of Turkish baths. Mr. I. R.: Isn’t Frederick Maher’s Apple Orchard near by? Mias (). I ' .: Yes, about two miles down Parody Highway. Mr. I. R.: And Angelo Moschen runs his hot-dog stand on that highway also. Mias (). I ' .: Did you know he’s the exclusive dealer of Trudeau’s Tasty Tonic and Ruggeri’s Ravishing Relish? Mr. . R.: No — not really. MiaaO.U.: Sure! Mr. I. R.: Have you noticed that unicpie sign out¬ side the Murphy Insurance Company? Miss (). U.: Yes, who invented that Scotch plaid neon sign? Mr. I. R.: Oh, Walter Burnham and “Russ” Sei ' rell got mad one day and threw all their electric fixtures into a pan of left overs, added a little Listerine Tooth Paste, some cream of tartar, turned on the gas, and eventually they had their invention. Pretty smart, eh what? Mias 0. l : Did you hear about those “guys” up on the Howes-Colby Road? Mr.I.R.: No — what hapi)ened? Mias (). U.: Well, it’s like this. Claire Cahill’s family began to complain to t)fficers John Bunk and “Bill” Jacobs about strange odors. They in turn calletl in those demon insi)ectors, the Banach twins. They hauled out their “Dunn 1 )evilmobile” and tore uj) to Gymrek Mountain and i)roceeded on foot through the “Codings’ Tree Xursery.” Finally they came upon a still oi)erated by Basil Brown, Richard Carson, Fdward Caswell, and ‘Alike” Cromack. “Charlie” A ' hite, “Joe” Martin, and William Kaskievich were shot down b} ' Officer Sweet when they tried to escai)e with six jugs. Mr. 1. R.: Oh, yes, 1 saw the A ' heeler Hearse clanging down Stone Street, and, when they stopped, Sally Zywna, Charlotte Snow, Mar¬ garet Pierce, and Mabel Jackman left their children and came over to watch the unloading. Mi as 0. l : The bodies were no sooner inside, than the “Kuchieski-Kaczenski Casket Com- pany Incorporated” jiulled into the yard fol¬ lowed by the “Tetreault Flower Shoppe” truck. This was driven by “Tim” Steinmacher, and as his helpers he had Ellwyn Bogue and “Herb” Babineau. Mr. 1. R.: Yep — the funeral was the largest affair this town ever had, but, when the “Brooks’ 2C Ring Circus” came down Flynn Street, everyone left the church and went to the “Kriksen Fair¬ grounds.” Mias 0. U.: Yes, there we saw ticket takers, Florence Banning and June Bitters. JMyles Covey was the balloon man, and “Bill” Grogan was the peanut vendor. Mr. I. R.: And “Louie” Wagner was the strong man; John Schwartz, the fire-eater. Florence Rose attracted a crowd by charming snakes, and “Ray” LaPalme and Cyrus Liese were slapping each other down in the wrestling ring. Mias 0. U.: Remember the fun we had on “Barnard’s Merry-go-Round,” “Tuttle’s Penny Arcade,” “Delano’s Ferris AYlieel,” and “Mar- coux’s Snap-the-Whip”? Then after getting a couple of “Baruzzi’s Candied Apples” and a bag of “iMorey’s Pop-corn” we proceeded to the Big Top. Mr. I. R.: Yah — and “Will” Rice looked pretty good feeding the animals. 1 noticed Pauline Sargent’s two boys lugging water for the elephants. Miss 0. U.: And didn’t Vivian O’iMara’s all-girl band sound good? There was iMarion Holmes, Rachel Jackman, “Dot” Sullivan, Constance Gagnon, and Winifred Brissette. I thought Fd die when Eleanor Daignault, Lodia Giniusz, and Leona Beaulac rode in as bare-back riders. Mr. I. R.: And on the way back, while we were riding on the “Haley and McCarthy Street Car,” we sighted “Wally” Smith and “Jw ' o” Wondoloski on Sessler Street. Miss (J. U.: Yes, they had “Teddy” Richardson and John Pallam cornered, trying to sell them the “Perrault Peters Cigarette Butt Holder.” A fight started when Donald Richardson drop¬ ped a twenty-five-cent cigar on the sidewalk. Mr. I. R.: Yup— we left the street car and ran over to watch them. Albert Siano, who hap¬ pened to be walking by, leaped into the heaj) and came up with the twenty-five cent “Fournier El Ropo Cigar.” • 69 . Miss 0. U.: Did you ever notice the pickets in front of the Helen Boyd aiul Sally Wells’ ■ ' Marvelous Millinery Shopi)e” on Stasinopoulos Street? There was Rita Boucher, Eunice Ber- rault, Ruth Bierce, Hazel Robinson, Mary Ryan, and Bhyllis Sullivan, and they were all out for the same reason. They wanted more hat in hats. “Kenny” Brightman broke it up when he came along with a wagon and started selling the “Turnbull Brothers’ Ice Cream.” Mr. I. R.: After that we went into the Strahan- Szulborski l)ei)artmcnt Store. We rode up in the Snow elevator, which is run by Marjorie Twyon. Floor walker “Joe” O’Brien showed us where they were displaying the latest IMulvaney fashions. M’e were met by hostess Janice Aloody, who showed us to our seats. Miss O. U.: Yes, and then Russell Smith and Stanley Wollander came out and gave a trumpet blast (sort of off key, but it was all right). Then “Joe” Alaloney, recently crowned “Spirit of Spring,” and Stanley Alacawic pulled the curtains and the fashion jmrade started. Lily Luippold announced as models, Irmgard Hohen- gasser, “Betty” Jacobs, Jeanette Jablonski, Agnes Chula, and Elaine Cramer. It was a good show until . . . Mr. I. R.: Yes, until Louise Rice and Elizabeth O’lR-ien started to play Sokoloski’s latest mastei-piece . . . MissO. U.: “What Did Catherine Ware”? That song was too much; it emptied the store, and we arrived down on the street just in time to see “Ray” Betrin’s All-Cirl-Soft-Ball-Team. They were on their way out to Alorell Bark to i lay a game. Mr. I. R.: We followed them out after I got my “Welch-Auto-Scoot” out of the “Whitney Open-Air Garage” and proceeded up Wande- loski Street to the park. Miss 0. U.: Ui)on arriving we saw Umpires Milasuk and Remillard being bribed with loly- l)ops by Eileen Scannell and Arlene Aliller to give the game to “Taylor’s Terrible Terrors.” Mr. I. R.: After the game, which ended in a tie, we were invited to spend the night at “St. Cyr’s Hacienda,” which is sunny, silent, and secluded we thought. Miss 0. U.: Yes — little did we dream that on the corner of Cominoli and Staiger Streets our rest¬ ing i)lace awaited us. All was well until the “Gaudry Blast Furnace” and the “Goodnow Forging Comi)any” started uj). We could stand no more — we left. Right now I’m tired. How about you? Mr. I. R.: I’m tired too. Miss 0. Li.: Well? Mr. I. R.: Well? Miss 0. U.: Shall we tell them? Mr. I. R.: Sure. Miss (). IJ. and Mr. I. R.: That’s all there is; there isn’t any more. Good night.

Broader than all the lands on earth, it is a huge magnet that draws men and determines their destinies. Thousands of times it has broken the ties of love. It has made men rich and poor and has brought happiness and grief, ' ilful in its actions it pays respect to no one. It vests its entire importance in one power — the i)o ver to attract and to hold. The sea derives its strange magnetic power from those things which it gives the men who sail. Once a man discovers tlie offerings of the sea, he is unwilling to give them up. He finds that it fills his thoughts, that his work must be with the sea. If he is forced to leave it, he will live only for the chance of returning to it. Perhai)s the sea has given that man a livelihood, an occupation. It has furnished him with his life work. fisherman, a trader, an explorer — he may have been any of these. He has come to know the ways of the sea — the slight calm before the storm and the ])redictiuns of a setting sun. He loves the feel of the deck, the wind on his cheek, and the sight of api)roaching land. In the world of cities and factories he can find nothing to re¬ place the joys of the i)ast, and, as a consequence, he dreams only of the time when he again will sail. The sea has become his life, and he dwindles away in the lack of it. Considering now the man who didn’t go to sea to earn a living, one perhaps would believe that that man received nothing. However, he may have secured the thing he most desired. His quest may have been an escape from the sham and noise of land life. Perhaps he sought a place where the individual was more than a machine. Sailing, he found that for which he searched. Entering the open sea, he was on his own and felt the pride of self-dependence. He lived a quiet life and thought a great deal. He may have written down his ideas for later use; he may have composed music in¬ spired by his reflection acquired. Thus was he affected by the sea. In his voyages he acquired that which all sailors possess — a knowledge of the minuteness of the human being as com])ared with the universe. The stormy, black sea gave him that knowledge. Tossed about by the waves, his craft was a spot on an endless plain of water. If his ship failed him, he would die, and no one would know how or where he met his end. That realization that we are very small is something not developed in many of us. To get it we should at some time in our lives go to sea. There we cannot fail to grasp in our hearts that valuable understanding. So strongly does the sea affect us that we shall never again assume the ridiculous pose of self-importance. The sea has given us true religion. The sea attracts all types of men. We find (puet, hardworking men, thoughtful men, and adventurous men. The last group has a large majority. Adventurers have found life on land dull and have resorted to the sea to quench their boredom. They heard old sailors talking of storms, icebergs, winds, and sea battles. They were stirred by reading poems of adventure, magic, and excitement on the sea. They were tense as they read IMasefield’s words — “1 must go down to the sea again for the call of the running tide Is a wild call and a clear call that may not be denied; And all 1 ask is a windy day with the white clouds flying. And the flung spray and the blown spume, and the sea-gulls crying.” The feeling of the poet is so intense that there kindles in the soul of men the fire that will send them to seek the exciting, vibrant life at sea. Reading on, man will imagine himself at the helm of his shij) and will challenge anything to defeat him. He can express his emotions with Henley’s “Invictus.” He may say, “t)ut of tlie night that covers me. Black as the Pit frcmi pole to pole, 1 thank whatever gods may be For iiiy uncoiKiucrable soul. In the fell eluteh of eircunistanee I have not winced nor cried aloud; Under the hlndgeonings of chance My head is hloody, hut nnhowed.” Men who feel such i)oems will soon go to sea. They will find their adventures as others did, and they too will talk of their experiences to the youth¬ ful generation. Adventure goes with the sea; the two will never separate. Young adventurers will see storms of a size they wouldn’t helieve. They will feel their shi]) lurch and careen into hottomless valleys, and they will I ' ise to the tops of hundred-foot mountains of water. The flash of the lightning as it illuminates an o})en sea will thrill them. Nature in her glory gives all men tingling veins and active bodies. However, adventure at sea is not confined to the workings of nature. There is often war — when the sea becomes a battlefield on which no wounded can lie. IMines and submarines threaten all vessels. Men live only for the ])resent, for the next second may bring ear-splitting explosion and oblivion. Then there are the battles at sea. Aides ai)art, the opi)onents fire death-laden shells easily over the distance. It is a game of death. He who fires best wins; he who is vanquished dies. The sea battles are final; victory is definite. The fighters win adventure at the price of life. They can ask no (piartcr. However, their love of action dims all else, and they are content. Thus do men live and die by the sea. For centuries the sea has acted in the same manner. It will never cease to attract the chosen ones. In changing civilizations it will not change, for it, like God, is perpetual. Emil John Slowinski, Jr. Ivy Ode • 0 ? Tune: Aiild Lang Syne Our school clays here, so full of joy, Too soon will be a dream, And so we i)lant the ivy now, To keep our mein’ries green. In days to come when we lurc e strayed And are cpiite far ai)art. The ivy’ll hold the memories That linger in each heart. Chorus: And after years have come and gone.
