For this reason we have been interested in the story of the growth of the high school. We found that an article was placed in the town warrant in March, 1852, to see if the people would raise a sum of money to build or purchase a school house, as required by the State Law. A committee was named to study the matter, but no plan was carried out until 1855, when a high school was opened in a small room in Davis hall. Mr. Luther B. Lincoln of Deerfield was employed to teach at a salary of $50 a month. The experiment was successful and the school was moved in the autumn to a hall in the school house at Nash ' s Mills. The cost of the school for the first year was $696.14. In March, 1857, a committee was named by the towns¬ people to consider building a high school. They favored a location on Chapman Street (now a parking lot ) and submitted a plan for a two-story school house at a cost not Zir ' _ to exceed $4000. A vote was passed authorizing the build- ing, and the entire cost of building and furnishing was _ $5240. The Ch apman Street building was in use as high _school until a new building was erected on Pleasant Street in 1872. The fourth building, now the Federal Street Junior High School, was erected in 1894, burned in 1904, and rebuilt, and the present high school was completed in 1923. — The Class of 1953 is proud of the people of Greenfield who have kept in tune with changing times, always making it possible for every child to be prepared to take his place as a citizen. It is, therefore, with great pleasure that we dedicate this EVERGREEN to the people of Greenfield. R F«L ? A Three cheers for G, H, S. Our high school is the best.

Casey NELSON DYER Three years ago, during the Fall of our Sophomore year, we lost from our midst one of our most popular and active classmates. One day in early October Nelson Dyer suffered an accident from which it was extremely doubtful whether he would fully recover. Nellie ' s determination and spirit enabled him to discard his heavy spinal cast within a few months and a few weeks later he was able to sit up. Since then Nellie has progressed remarkably and, although he still needs crutches and a wheelchair, he has been home on several occasions. Nelson is now at the Canton Hospital in Canton, Mass,, and is the current weight-lifting champ of the hospital. We ' ll always remember Nellie ' s bright smile and sparkling personality. Best wishes from your classmates, Nellie, and Good Luck Always!

Benefitting from a competent directing ancL production job, the student actors moved with spirit and skill to stage a humorous, entertaining story. They ' ll do a repeat performance tonight at 8. The play, adapted by Ann Rey¬ nolds from the book by Craig Rice, describes commically tangled efforts of three children at¬ tempting to marry off their mother by complicating and delaying the work of a mdrder investigation. Carrying out this ambitious pro¬ gram, in the chief roles as the children are Elame Phillips, San¬ dra Burnham and Norman Stota The latter delivered a laugh-pro¬ voking performance as young broth¬ er in combat with two teen-age sisters. As the older of the two sisters. Miss Phillips was called on for a laige share of the play ' s action and she met the challenge with assurance in the precise and interesting characterization which the part required. In the best part and the most demanding. Miss Burnham carried off the acting honors. As a spright¬ ly 14-year-old the leqder of the conspiracy, she scampered through a difficult role with a smooth portrayal. She cried, screamed, cajoled and told some elegant lies, and ’did it all with ease and in¬ telligence. Her performance was as good as the best to bp found in high school theatrics. Among the others, Mike Owsci- chik cavorted in a fine, gusty per- fomnance as Police Sgt. O ' Hare: Margaret Sullivan and Howard Gates as the objects of the kids marital machinations did a first rate job. A Qouple of improbably named clowns, Slukey and Flashlight, played by Richard Hanley and Francis Dziekonski, stole a part I of the play with some superbly done low comedy. Charlie Peterson and Margaret Anderson were fine in their role of the dignified next door neighbors Thomas Potter, Robert Brown, Richard Parks and Richard Camp¬ bell performed ably, in their sup¬ porting parts. Judith Hamilton, in the part of an actress, and Bar¬ bara Kestyn as the “menace” to a romance were polished and sophisticated in their brief charac¬ terizations. Others in the cast are Elizabeth Erisman, Richard Hawkins, Janet Poole, and Marilyn Punch. Miss Marion L. Congdon, direct¬ ing her first senior play, rates a bow for her success and the en¬ tire production company deserves applause for a creditable job. I A junior class sextette pleased the large audience with songs ai each intermission. They sang “Among My- Souvenirs,” “Love Nest,” “Always,” and “ ' White Christmas,” and scored their greatest success with the last mentioned number. The group is composed of Carol Bomley, T ' ner- esa Sawicki, Juanita Harris, Gay Sinclair, Katherine Moran aftd Pauline Togneri. — J.C.

Since then, it has been a rapidly growing club. It has increased from thirty to one hundred and sixty-seven members. The object of the Forum is to give a broader concept of world affairs to students who are interested. This theme has been developed through the years by having speakers and panel discussions on current topics. The purpose of the Forum has certainly been developed to capacity this year. Our first speaker of the year was Mr. E. J. Goodridge of Liberia, Africa, Mr. Goodridge was in the United States through a Ford Foundation grant. He was very much impressed with Greenfield, and he gave the people of Greenfield some very enlightening ideas about Africa. Miss Janice Weeks and Mr. Robert Hume, former Greenfield students, further developed our foreign knowledge. Miss Weeks spoke about her travels on the European continent, and Mr. Hume spoke about his experiences in Tunisia. Mr. Donald White, also a Greenfield alumnus, gave us an interesting picture of Alaska. At the time of the national elections Mr. Russ Miller of Deerfield Academy spoke to the Forum about the qualifications of a good presidential candidate. The Forum sponsors assemblies during the year. One of this year ' s assemblies was a student-conducted meetng of the UNESCO branch of the United Nations. Mr. Bayard Rustin spoke at another assembly about starvation in India and the need for understanding Indian problems.

He is also a member of the Student Council. More proof of Nell’s progress is the fact that he has his license and is able to drive a fully equipped hand controlled car. The most wonderful accomplish¬ ment is that he is able to shed his wheelchair. Since an operation on his ankles was performed, he has been able to walk with braces and crutches. His only difficulty now is in climb¬ ing stairs, and Nellie, who never gives up, will conquer those in time. During Nelson’s many months at the hospital he has done weight lift¬ ing. And judging by appearances the last time he was home, he was a picture of health.
