CLASSMATES IN THE ARMED SERVICES HERMAN BASKIN FRED BENNETT LEO CAPEZZONE 4..- JOHN DeCO0K 22 EMIL DeVEAU Grade Our Junior Class began its round of social activity this year with an Old Fashioned Dance held on October 1. Music was supplied by George Barba's popular Harvcsters . We stood high in salesmanship during the an- nual magazine drive held in the fall. Many of us have joined the Guilford High School Marine Corps. In response to the great need for farm laborers, we helped to harvest a crop of tomatoes which otherwise would have been spoiled by frost. On another occasion We were called upon to harvest a turnip crop on the Bishop farm. The date granted us by the Student Council for our annual Junior Hop was November 19. Everyone worked furiously to make it a success - and a success it was fsocially if not finan- ciallylj. Since student attendance at the dance was apparently going to be small, we decided to have it open to the public. We continued the idea started last year by the class of '44 of hav- ing a floor show made up of talent from the student body. The decorations were worked out in a colorful circus theme. Class activities stopped to make way for the basketball season. Joel Davis and Jack Lein- felder represented our class as newcomers to the team, and Tommy Sullivan and Robert Russo as veterans. The Junior Class is represented on the Town Honor Roll by Harold Clark and Jack Leslie, both of the United States Navy. We are very proud of them and sincerely hope that they will soon be back to the home they once knew and to us, their friends and former classmates. Front Row 1Left to rightj -- Patricia Anderson.

CLASS OFFICERS President - - Vice-President Secretary Treasurer We Sophomores shine in sports. A number of our boys proved their splendid ability on the basketball floor by making the Varsity team. Those taking part were R. Lemley, R. Linskey, R. Hubbard, C. Clore, J. Vitali and M. Capez- zone. These players appear quite promising for excellent teams in future years. Four girls, Rose Russo, Lois Papa, Evelyn Morse and Helen Hor- an, have made the girls' Varsity basketball team, which is quite a feat considering the small lineup. We made great achievements in the annual Magazine Drive, although we were not Top Rankers as we had been in the previous year. We did, however, give this year's class of best sellers quite a scare, as the returns were coming in. - EDWIN BENTON CHARLES HALL ANNA NORTON EVELYN MORSE We ordered our class rings because we feared many unfavorable conditions would be present if we waited. After much fiery debate we show- ed our fighting spirit by picking the Patrick model. We were assured that a jinx had been placed on our class. First We attempted to have a hay- ride, but we were prevented by rain. Then aft- er all the plans for our Valentine Dance in February had been made, the basketball tourna- ment forced our date to be withdrawn. We chose the only other alternative, which, in- cidentally, established a theme for our class ac- tivities. Saint Pat kindly bestowed his good will upon us, and we successfully held an old- fashioned dance in his honor on March 17. GRADE NINE CLASS OFFICERS President - - - JOSEPH VITALI Vice-President GERALDINE HORAN Secretary DOROTHY DANDELSKE Treasurer KATHERINE MAINETTE The Freshman Class has taken its place as a member of the Senior High School by partici- pating in quite a few activities that have taken place this year. On October 22, 1944, our class held a record dance in the High School auditor- ium. It was very successful and added a substan- tial amount to our anemic treasury. A number of boys of the Freshman Class tried out for the High School basketball teams. The class is extremely proud of Artie Fonicello and Joe Vitali, whose ability and spirit won them a place on the first team - a great achievement indeed for Freshman boys. The boys who made the second team are: Eddy and Billy Jacobsen, lay Sullivan and Tommy O'Connor. The class took an active part in the Magazine Drive and topped its quota by 535. We are do- ing a fine job in the War Stamp Drive, too. Everyone is buying stamps to keep the Minute Man flag flying.

Besides our regular studies, we have participated in many extra-cur- ricula activities. Many of our boys and girls took part in the Song and Dance program of Novem- ber 23, 1943. A few days before Christmas, those same pupils helped to entertain the com- munity again in a lovely Christmas program. We were represented on the football team which the Seventh Grade and the Freshman Class, and played on the Intramural basketball team. In this year's Magazine Drive we reached our - RUTH DAVIS ' Jig! .gl ,K class quota. We did very well in the Defense Stamp Drive, too, for we again reached our class quota, thus doing our bit towards securing a Minute Man flag for G. H. S. The record dance held on February ll, 1944, by both the Seventh and Eighth Grades, was our most outstanding event of the year. Many couples braved the snowstorm and made our dance a great success. Now we are cnterting High School with the hope that our coming year will be as much fun as Eighth Grade has been.

OFFICERS President - - - ROBERT JACOBSEN Vice-President THOMAS SULLIVAN Sgfrgfgry - - Trcqgurer CATHERINE SULLIVAN The Student Council is composed of all the class presidents and one additional representa- tive from the Sophomore, junior and Senior Classes. The function of the Council is to super- vise the student activities, association funds, and school policies. In addition to regular activities, the Coun- cil sponsored the annual Magazine Drive. The total sales this year excelled last year's by a mar- gin of five hundred QSSOOQ dollars. The Council decided to erect a Suggestion Box which would permit the students to sub- mit suggestions to the Council for the benefit of the school. A permanent name for the Yearbook was obtained by a contest which was open to the entire student body. We also voted to have a hard-cover on the Yearbook. This year we organized a chairman for the different committees. They were: Lunch Room -Catherine Sullivan, Yearbook-Elwood Bur- tong Traffic-John Leinfelder, and Activities -Thomas Sullivan. ELWOOD BURTON, Secy. MARINES STUDENT LEADERS JOEL DAVIS ANNA BREMMER The G. H. S. Marines were organized again this year by Mr. Cox. The squad was made up of High School juniors and seniors who had volunteered to aid the community in time of emergency. Because of the labor shortage the Marines were called upon early in the school year to help the farmers. They performed such tasks as pulling carrots and turnips and picking tomatoes. The members also aided the teachers in the registering of the townspeople for the issuance of the ration book four. At all times the Marines are ready, willing and able to help wherever they are needed. Front Row fleft to right! - Gloria Sanborn, Anna Bremmer, Patricia Anderson.

Various groups in the mixed chorus have taken part in all the school programs. The Boys' Glee Club, in particular, deserves credit for its active participation in the Victory Show. The mixed chorus as a whole has sung in the Song and Dance Festival, and in various as- semblies throughout the school year. 32 5 CJ ff, The Special Choir always goes over big with the audience and is one of the highlights of any program in which it takes part. It is com- prised of nine girls who met three times a week, under the direction of Miss Gertrude LeQuin, the music instructor. Since 1942, when it was organized, the Special Choir has participated in graduation exercises, Christmas pageants, the Junior Hop, Song and Dance Festival, and the Victory Program. To the girls who are in it, the Special Choir is not only a school activity but also a sort a club, for members often meet outside of school to practice. At one of these get-togethers the Choir made several records, thus preserving its version of such favorites as Romberg's Sere- nade and Tea For Two . The girls of the Special Choir admit that re- hearsing means plenty of work, but they wouldn't trade their membership in the Choir for anything!!

All the senior girls are members and they get together once a week to sing old favorites and popular songs, under the direction of Miss LeQuin. The choir has taken part in a number of entertainments throughout che year. In No- vember it took part in the Song and Dance Festival. At the Christmas Pageant the choir sang the lovely I Heard the Bells on Christmas Dayn. Its interpretation of Under the Spread- ing Chestnut Tree and the Gypsy Love Song helped to make the Victory Program a success. It is hoped that the choir will be continued by each new senior class. 34 4. V 'i ' a - Strike up the band is the phrase echoed throughout the student body. The new marches and orchestrations are enjoyed by everyone. Several new members have entered the G. H. S. Band this year, and have greatly contributed to its success. The band played at the Future Farmers' Fair in Madison last September, and has participated in several monthly programs osyj Band put on by the music department. It has taken an active part in the High School assemblies throughout the year. The school orchestra and the swing band are also holding regular rehearsals. Although the band and orchestra are comparatively small this year, quality makes up for quantity. -5.

Cheerleaders Our cheerleaders, garbed in red and white, enthusiastically led the cheering section through the basketball season. In the fall, the Student Council chose these six girls as the best of those who tried out. Through practice, they were ready for victory at the first game. The Pep Club was much larger this year and each member Wore the colorful emblem. The average attendance of home games was from one hundred to two hundred students. The cheerleaders and Pep Club attended all the games and the result was one of the best cheering sections in years. Helen Walker resigned in the middle of the season because of the pressure of outside work, and her place was taken by Gloria D'Amico. 40 ll Vg I .gr - R' is W f X I 4 A ,T M2 L DETENTION SLIPS One Monday mornung I appeared un school munus my assugnment Dolefully thunkung that my excuse wouldnt be accepted lut consusted of a musplaced book I dragged myself unto the classroom When the teacher asked for my homework and euved nothung except a groanung sugh and red face, she very sweetly told me to vusut her after school As I bravely sauntered unto the room at two oclock I could see that she beung afraud of hurt ng my feelungs avouded the subject unvolved and chattered along about the weather I funally could stand the suspense no longer and told her that I hadnt done my assugnment and would she please guve me a detentuon slup At thus my teachers face fell and she exclaumed that she Just couldn t do such a thung She begged me to copy from some one to go to the pruncupal and tell hum the homework was too long or anythung to remedy the sut uatuon However I was furm and unsusted upon receuvung the slup She funally consented and wuth tears un her eyes and apologues she sugned the paper I-Iappuly I walked out of the room knowung that I had won But alas' when I reached the lubrary there was my teacher wuth candy apples pullows and a wude grun She pounced upon me and unsusted upon doung my assugnment From lack of breath I funally had to yueld fuxung me as comfortably as possuble she began to work At two thurty I left the lubrary dusgusted wuth the softy that my teacher had become LOIS PAPA LIFE ON A SCHOOL BUS Rudung on a school bus us not nearly as excutung now as ut was when I began commutung over ten years ago In those days ut was really a wuld adventure To begun wuth the bus was small There were long bench luke seats on both sudes and seats large enough for two un a row down the muddle The wundows were covered wuth chucken wure to prevent us from puttung our heads out Thus our bus was suutably nucknamed the chucken coop and we of course were the chuckens We were a very scrappy bunch of chuckens too I the mornung we were almost burstung wuth energy and we consumed a good deal of ut before we arruved at school The luttle boys urged on by the older ones generally chose that tume to de-cude who was champuon boxer the trouble beung the r munds never stayed made up long and the next morn ng the contest would b gun over agaun Our bus was perhaps the nly one that had 1 glee club on ut When the boys were un a less pugnacuous mood they could stng very well ewen harmonuzung a luttle un an unharmonuous way They sang mostly mourn ful songs of uulted lovers and uaul lufe generally comung to a grand funale wuth a few choruses of Theres Ten Bottles of Beer on the Wall No matter how much energy we used un the mornung we alwavs seemed to regaun ut by the tume the bus came 41 to take us home We all had a dunner snack to eat or throw around on the bus Snow furnushed a delughtful pastume for those who threw ut and those who receuved ut had 1 fearful apprehensuon of what was un store for them When I was un the suxth grade the chucken wure was removed from the wundows and bars were substu tuted Thus was a great day for us all We were no longer ch ckens but jaul burds But commutung was gettung tamer and tamer About the only thung that stull remauned was the glee club u huch had umproved wuth age and now had graduated to sungung more classucal musuc Now even the glee club has vanushed Rudung on the bus us a borung affaur wuth nothung to duvert ones at tentuon from school worrues We get on a modern bus, sut down, fold our hands un our laps, and confer quuetly wuth our fruends untul we arruve at our destunatuons True, the routune us somewhat upset by the members of the lower school but everythung us peaceful and serene, com pared wuth the old days MARY BEATTIE COWBOY S DREAM Out West un Aruzona, Where the sage and cactus grow Where the long horns roam the praurue Thats where I long to go The undulatung praurue l uke a gently rollung sea The mesas and the coulees Are always callung me To rope and brand the yearlung In the saddle all day long, Tho Im footsore lame and weary On my lups a cowboy song To don my battered Stetson And strum my old guutar, I would not then change places Wuth any kung or czar To hear the doggues bellow Along the moonlut trauls And her the coyotes voucung Theur eerue drawn out wauls You may have your crowded cutues Your shops and buuldungs tall I ll take the rollung praurues And answer to theur call MARIAN LARKIN . . 1 . . .
