SCROLL IN MEMORY OF HIM QMICHAEL SURTEESJ He was my friend, that gallant English boy: God never made a better friend than he. And 'cause we love the things we most enjoy, God took this boy, my friend, away from me. I do not speak alone of these, my thoughts, For many others shared his friendship, toog And many others feel the same as I About that English boy whom we all knew. I cannot tell you how much I have lostg No words were ever made to do the task. But if you've ever known a friend like him, You'll understand the value of the past. And when I think of those he's left behind, How sad and yet how proud they all must be To give him up and still remain sublime. Content and proud to his own memory. I bow my heady I have no more to say. Their loss is far too great to comprehend. As though from them, the blessed light of day Had vanished, only darkness to the end. He was a boy, sure just a boy, perhaps six- teen, Rejoicing in the ecstacy of life, Preparing for the world that lay ahead - A world in which there is to be no strife. Sure he'd known strife, and left his home to turn To safety in this land across the sea: 'Twas here he was to study and return To England when the war had ceased to be. But we cannot direct our destinies, And so he died in Maine on such a date, He died because he saved another's life- Example of the irony of fate. We'll miss him but a new world he has found, Where there's no war, no sorrow, no unrest. And knowing him as was our privilege, We could not ask for more nor expect less. -Robert Cameron '45 THE NEED FOR POST-WAR PLANNING NOW Many people have held, and still hold, the opinion that post-war planning is all non- sense, that the war should be won first. They seem to think that plans for the future have nothing to do with winning the war. These short-sighted people believe that because the United States has access to more copper, or coal. than other nations there is no doubt about our winning the war. It is time for us to realize the strength of our enemies, for although our material wealth may exceed that of Germany or Ja- pan alone, yet the resources of these two countries, combined with those which they have captured, are as great as ours. But in addition to their potential resources these nations have something greater, something which the United States has not, and some- thing which demands our attention. They have a vision of the future. The people of these belligerent countries have been fired with the ambition and determination to rule the world. They are going to establish their own world order and be masters of the hu- man race. That thought is ever present in their minds. In order to meet on equal grounds these forces of destruction, we too must have a vis- ion of the future. We owe it to our fighting men. Every day our own husbands, sons and sweethearts are sacrificing their lives in the relentless struggle for the liberation of the world. Are we to let them believe that they are dying in vain? Are we to send them out on the battlefield with only the command that they fight? Are we to give them nothing to fight for? We must stand firmly behind these young men and make our post-war plans NOW. We must try to understand our future and pro- vide for the rehabilitation of our soldiers re- turning from the war. We must assure our fighting men that they are striving for a lasting peace. The United States is to play an important role in the reconstruction period to follow. We must make plans now for reg- ulating international relationships, for until H. C. I.

'44 CHALLENGE I challenge you, America, to make a true American citizen out of me. It was only yes- terday that I was afraid of life, afraid of the opportunities that the future holds for me. Only yesterday I, just a child, was sheltered under my mother's wing. The world seemed to revolve around my parents and what they thought was right: I agreed with them. But as I grew older, I began to realize what life can hold in store for me, and I began to dream of success. The first step to my dreamed of success was my entrance into Higgins. Here at this preparatory school ls the foundation for my whole life, for I am learning how to get along with other people. ' In the dormitory each girl has a roommate. We must live together happily and not quar- rel. We share each other's possessions and each of us has to give up something to the other, in order to have perfect harmony. We share both joys and sorrows with each other. Our lives at Higgins, will be a memory that we will cherish in our hearts forever. Higgins helps a great in offering courses for a future profession. Biology, chemistry, and anatomy will help one in a medical or nursing profession. Latin and French are a direct preparation for college. French, or any modern language, helps those who enter the service of our country, especi- ally those who go overseas. Home economics prepares one for a direct vocation or home- making . We also have an excellent opportunity to friendships. Girls have invited me to homes, where I have become acquaint- form their ed with their parents, and have learned from what Boys times ships mean know kind of environment my friends come. and girls start friendships that some- last forever, although usually friend- between boys and girls in high school nothing: but it helps young people to with what kind of people to associate in later life. At Higgins we are taught to be courteous, helpful. and faithful to our elders. In later life that little bit of politeness may gain us a position, the lack of which would mean pov- erty. We are taught to be loyal to our school and to our teachers. The discipline here pre- pares us for the school of life where the rules will be much stricter. Failure or success is the result of discipline. Because of the opportunities that are offer- ed by this school, I feel more confident to face the future, eagerly and fearlessly. I hope that I, only one out of many thousands, will be able to serve America, dutifully and faith- fully. -Colleen Snow '45 WHAT IS ART? In how serious a manner have you ever looked at art? Do you know the true mean- ing? Art is, according to Webster: one, knack : two, ingenuity g three, a branch of learning , four, application of skill and taste to the production of things of beauty, especially painting or sculpture 3 five, that which is produced by such application of skill and taste. Perhaps you have always had a vague idea about art or you have thought of it as the Uhighbrow stuff that museums of painting and sculpture hold. Let us consider, though, the real meaning and its relation to us, for whether you know it or not, there is a definite connection to our daily lives. Examine the first and second definitions: knack and ingenuity. A relationship is clearly seen here, for one's knack of doing a task is often helped by one's ingenuity. This means any job, whether it be the study of algebra or the digging of a ditch. Have you been taught to do your best, no matter what the job may be, to make it a real success? Here aptitude is aided by your own or suggested improve- ments. When the work is over, if you know you have done your best, have unflinchingly and unwaveringly met each trial and sur- mounted it, the feeling of satisfaction is just- ified. But if if you have dodged responsibili- ties repeatedly and tried to burrow through seemingly impassable obstacles, then you should be prepared for the avalanche of trouble that will start your way. Do a job, do it well, try to do it better than you thought you could, and you'll be pleased with the re- sult. Plan to do even better next time but be sure you've done your best this time. You'll find happiness. you'll radiate happiness, and you'll receive it. The remaining three definitions might be considered as a whole. Do you think of music or painting as being about the only things encompased by the definition? If you do, you are far misled, for any job may become a piece of artistry if it is done with an applica- tion of both skill and taste. Examine the pen- manship of some people or the way a certain boy builds his model airplanes. Here are un- mistakable examples of true artistry. Some feather dusters are made so that they seem to approach perfection. Plainly, art can come from all. Have you ever thought about the word in that sense? When you do, you will most surely decide, I will do my very best in everything, make the task a success by using my ability and skill. I will be an artist. L. B. '45 6 H. C. I.

I find that in the average American's life, our parents try, even in infancy, to teach us right from wrong. Perhaps, as a youngster, our parents may speak of this preparation not as sportsmanship but as attitude. And isn't attitude a form of sportsmanship? Attitude is the way we force ourselves to become accus- tomed to an obstacle in our presence. In other words, in our first daily teaching, attitude is a game and can be played with a certain degree of fairness. ln high school, attitude or sportsmanship is still au important factor. Play the game fairly is a group of words that is rehearsed and rehearsed before us in every classroom. Each teacher tries to make us see that the more we accomplish today and every day, the batter we can play the Game of Life tomor- TUXV. Upon completion of high school and col- legs, we face life with the knowledge and the understanding that we have acquired in the past. It is difficult, extremely diflicult, to face such an obstruction, but, remember, Life is a game wherein sportsmanship counts more than anything else in the world. jo Ann Peirce ,45. WVHAT TO DO WITH TIME More than ever before we should be think- ing about what we should do with our time. Time does not stop for anyone or anything, but keeps steadily marching on. In time of war it would hardly seem neces- sary to speak of wasting time, yet .we find -people who seemingly have nothing to do and still others who have plenty to do but are doing nothing about it. How important it is that every American do his part! Everyone should work out a scheduled plan so that he can get the most out of each day. In our school there is a great waste of time on the part of the pupils. If young people could only be made to realize the importance of getting their studies and getting them well! This is particularly true of the boys who ex- pect to go in the service soon. Many soldiers have chances to go to training schools and col- leges, but fail their examinations because they wasted their time in high school. Let us now change the scene to that of Aniericais defense plants. How far would our armies get if the men and women in our fac- tories shirked? Not far, we can be assured! Why are these plants kept going night and day? That is easily answered. They are fight- ing against time. People say this could be done and that could be done if we only had time. That is why every person in America should be utilizing his time to the best pos- sible advantage. Do you think that our boys who are fight- ing on the battle-fronts are taking time out for a rest? I'll say they're not. They'rc forg- ing on! llow would the people of America like to hear that all fighting has ceased, so that the boys could have a little diinking party and rest for awhile? That wJuldn't sound very well, would it? Well, I don't imagine it sounds any better to our soldiers when they hear that production on the home front has been slowed up thirty percent be- cause of strikes and drunkenness. Ultimate victory can be ours if every per- son does his bit. So, remember, that time is mninunitiong use it wisely! G. H. '45. NURSES IN THE WAR This single word nurse may not mean much to some people, but right now, more than ever, nurses are proving themselves one of the most important parts of this world. Our Army and Navy nurses are now scattered all over this vast universe. They are at the front trenches with the boys and are saving many lives that would be lost without their aid. They go through endless hardships right along with the boys and are willing to do it to help their country. At Bataan, a great many nursessfvere cap- tured by the Japanese. What has happened to these valiant women-no one knows. The government is badly in need of nurses at the present time. Many married women, who can possibly spare the time, have signed up for nurses' aides. They help relieve much work from the now scarce registered nurses in the civilian hospitals. All retired regis- tered nurses have been asked to go back to work if their health will permit. The government is even offering to pay for the training now if girls will train in the Cadet Nursing Corps. They give, besides the training, a monthly allowance of 315, and this increases with time. They are also furnished H. C. I. SCROLL 7 Ololx-ll1nu-1:11111nn-nxnliuliluiulr-nu14:1nl1n1u1:mininu1nn1nn--un1n1llinniul-:sinus-nn1nn1ncln with books and smart uniforms for outdoor wea1'. It is an excellent opportunity for any girl between the ages of 17 and 34 that can pass all entrance exams. It is necessary that the girl be a graduate of a high school. The Red Cross nurses are also doing a won- derful job now. They work tirelessly for the servicemen of any country. They keep up the morale and courage of the sick and the wounded, and of the prisoners of war. ln the streets of any nation, when we see a nurse, we can really say Hats off to the nurses! Rachel Clement '4-1. NVHY STUDY? I consider that every person needs an edu- cation. The knowledge that becomes educa- tion can always be obtained if one has the ambition to study, to learn from nature and experience, as well as from his surroundings. The first great thing in the world is to he a man, that is, to behave well, to have con- sideration for others, and to introduce a new way of living in order to make a better world in which to live and rejoice. Man's greatest teachers are nature and ex- perience. Nature can teach man his use in the world, the object of living and what his life may contain, providing he gains all the knowledge he possibly can to overcome his ignorance. Plants are improved by cultivation and why ean't man he improved by education? All living things are equal. When we come into this line, complicated, progressive world we know very little. Our senses help us to gain our Iirst degree of knowledge, and then our environment helps us to learn how to live with others. Since we are not always going to bc innocent children, we must go farther to gain the formal education of life. Life is a game, but a game cannot be played unless one knows the rules. lVe gain valuable knowledge from observ- ing others, and get experience from various cirelnnstances. XVc experiment with all factors pertaining to mathematics, chemistry, physics, history, and explore the works of our highly educated an- cestors. lt was these educated people who helped create this modern world and make it a pleasant place for us to continue our work lor the next generation. Knowledge can he obtained in various ways. Some of thc most important ones are schools, travel, and experience. One who doesn't attend school when he has the opportunity isn't necessarily the one xvho can not learn, but the one who will not try to make himself a better human being. 'l'here is much in this world to learn and il' one should study all his life he would find that he still wouldn't know everything. This question, therefore, Why study? is to he answered simply hy saying To overcome as much ignorance as possible. Therefore, don't waste timel Never put off until tomorrow what you can do today.

It is hoped, however, that the mod- ern enthusiasts of rug-cutting will find some ideas expressed herein that will draw their at- tention to their own unique art of music ap- preciation and further cause them to listen to a few remarks that they may hear at random during their perusal of this work. The author does not dare profess to be even a minor critic of music, but merely wishes to convey a few of his own thoughts to the readers who are not allready too bored to read on. Primitive man, barbaric and stupid, may have beaten on a hollow log and noted the new, odd sound. He or some of his tribe may have learned to hum. How queer must have been those noises! But this is not a narrativeg the point is: man from his conception has liked musical sounds. On through the centuries man has had music as a companion. Look at cer- tain pictures of hieroglyfphic-covered Egyptian walls and you'll see men who look as if they were blowing horns or strumming fantastic stringed instruments. Down through time, delve into the mysteries of the Reformation when chords had become part of the religious exercises. Look into the wonders of the exotic Orient and you'll find many strange, marvel- ous musical instruments. Peer even into the heart of the present day tropical Africa, and listen to the night-marish chant of the black, greasy savages who sway to the frenzied moans and humming of the crazily dressed medicine man. Follow the dance, the development of instruments-their use singly and in concerted combination, the use of the voice in singing down through time as these various types and applications of music become greater and greater as they formed the sturdy trunk of a tree from which many, many branches out- l..B. stretch, from which have conn' countless sub- divisions or twigs whose iu1'asiu'e scciu incum- prehensible. First, let us consider dance unxsic. The ab- solute necessity here is, of course, a definite, well-accentuated rhythm. There is one clear, outstanding melody that goes on for several bars, too, but the rhythm is the thing. The fox-trot has its own special rhythm or time, as does the waltz. The latter being slower than the former, it is considered passe by the bc- wildering offspring of this generation, lnit the writer finds it most beautiful, thc music itself being very magnificent in its tonal beauties and combinations. Perhaps our dance orcfvcsti.':', which, for the most part, are made up ot only fifteen players, do not have sufficient instru- ments for the tonal strength and depth n-- quired in the old but nevertheless refreshing waltzes of a master like Johann Strausl. Our orchestras are .well adapted to the fox- trot, though. The rhythm is sufficient for the dancer who has a partner to hold his interest and who needs only to listen with half an ear if he be an experienced dancer to keep in time, but we might find the music boring if taken by itself, that is, on the fourth or fifth hearing. Naturally there are exceptions, but even most of these might be found trying on the twentieth hearing. Few pass the five-year test of pleasing listenersg and the dancer, too, is very liable to ask for a change of diet when the newness has worn off. Certain pieces, how- ever, never lose their melodic novelty and pass into the semi-classic of the modern era. The author is compelled by personal desire to say a few words regarding that interesting dance phenomena which its adherents call boogie-Woogie . This musical fugitive, which seems to be a cross between an Ubange war dance and the abstract idea called civilization, is actually music with a displacement of the natural accent. Here more than in any other H. C. I. popular modern type of dancing, the rhythm is the foundation. The unlearned musician, who trys to find any resemblance to a melody, then makes a remark as he hears and attempts to marvel politely is pardoned. The author feels inadequately versed to continue the sub- ject, but assures the peruser that he may find voluminous stores of information and opinions awaiting him practically anywhere if he cares to search. Let it suffice to say that boogie- woogien is a most novel form of diversion for the instrumentalist who attempts to master this art. The discussion of instruments in this article will not be on development, which was very briefiy mentioned previously, but on use in the modem orchestras. Wind instruments are used in dance bands to create hot, sweet music, this being actually loud and nearly infallibly grating on the nerves of the casual hearer. Stringed instruments are allowed the melody occasion- nally, which they capably handle. The drums are used for frenzied ejaculations of skill and thunderous noise which are not considered musical in the least. The leader, being an ac- complished musician on some particular in- strument, usually features himself conspicu- ously in a number which may start his band on its road to popularity. This number, if it is spectacular and shows signs of virtuosity on the soloist's part, is most agreeable to listen to, as is, for example, Harry james, theme song. We will now turn to the symphonic aspects of instrumental applications, which are so numerous that a mere list of the most ont- standing effects would amount to a small vol- ume. The violins, when bowed through arpeg- gios high in the G clef, allegro or in a sus- tained andante, create an impression of ether- eal depths, immeasurable heights beyond which something magnificent awaits, but which seems never to become clearly revealed. Rising notes cf a chord indicate joy in a major Rey, but in a minor Rey, a sadly-hopeful, heart-rending plight of someone or something. Descending notes of a bassoon suggest untold sorrow and despair, whereas, rising notes in the bassoon give forth some hope, but not quite enough to arouse confidence. A low-pitched octave in the strings give forth one of the most startingly mysterious, superbly wonderful effects that all music has to offer. It can simultaneously create an atmosphereof horror that makes your spine creep with ex- SCROLL 17 pectancy, and, too, seems to have something marvelous in store. When accompanied by the melody of the work while the octave roll is being raised and lowered, there is no feeling more coldly inspiring to be heard on all the earth. One finds many thrilling examples of this idea of suppressed gloom mingled with fearful, cringing, mad joys in Tsdhiakovsky's Pathetic Symph-ony. Composers have util- ized this tonal wonder in countless ways which arc definitely related but nevertheless make individual, distinct, widely-varied impressions on the ear. In the hate motive of Bizet's CarmenU one finds living, despicable contempt. The music engenders an icy wave of fear in the listener, who shudders as if doomed, but nonetheless continues to wait and listen to see what comes of these forboding strains. Upon examination of the score itself, one may be excused for his bewilderment at this simplicity of Bizet's, for actually the whole reaction is caused by four descending notes! Of course, the orchestra- tion is the main point. It is the background that these four notes arc given ,that helps im- mensely in arousing the ghastly fright experi- enced. If the reader has been interested in thcsc few examples, he will find them and measurcless others, which may appear more outstanding to his particular taste when next he hears a symphonic work. As one sits next to his radio or in the thea- ter, he is sure to hear a song, perhaps several, over a short period of time. Nearly everyone sings, or has tried to at some time or other. NVhether or not he knew it, he was utilizing what experts agree is the perfect musical in- strument-the voice. Stop and think a mo- ment. NVhat other instrument has the power of inodnlation? VVhieh has perfect pitch? And most marvelous of all, which has the miracu- lous power of articulation? You cannot fail to agree when you consider these points. The author thinks that the peufect ideal or thc highest attaimnent of all musical art is reached in that combination of drama, sym- phonic music, dance music, and singing which is called opera. lf the strings have a quartet as their supreme goal, then the highest goal ot' singing is the opera. Therein can bc found the showcase of the world's best voices.

But this .ludy's heart and mind were not in her sing- ing. Although she knew that Christmas would bring her another load of toys pretty gifts, it still wouldn't be complete. time Day and Three months ago, Bill, her big brother, had bel'n reported missing in action. Bill had al- ways helped her with her presents when she had been too excited to open them. She missed him very much, but on Christmas his absence would hurt even more. Somehow, she didn't look forward to Christmas at all this year. - YVhen she returned home from singing carols, her mother had a cup of hot chocolate and some sandwiches ready for her. She sat down by the lireside. As she ate her sand- wiches and sipped her cocoa, judy's mind wandered back to the happy Christrnases of the previous years. In a few minutes, Mrs. Brown called Judy and advised her to go to bed, for tomorrow would be a big day. After Judy went to bed, she thought about other people who had boys fighting for their home and country. After she thought this over, she felt ashamed for being sorry for her- self at not having Bill here on Christmas. Many people didn't even have homes to call their own any more. Some were lying wounded in battle fields, others starving in prison camps. Certainly she grieved Bill was missing, but half the battle was being brave and carrying on in spite of sadness. It was only selfish- ness to think of one's own troubles at a time like this. Judy said her prayers and then settled down to sleep. However, her room seemed stuffy, so she went to open the window. The full moon shone down, making things as plain as day. 1-t cast mysterious shadows from various objects on the ground. Huge snow drifts shone smooth and white. The night was still and only a soft breeze mur- mured through the trees. Millions of stars twinkled in the sky. It was while Judy was looking at the stars the Milky Way. Bill had al- that she saw ways told her that Santa Claus came by route of the Milky think of that. of her mind. Then Judy minutes she drifted off into a peaceful slumber. She awoke very early the next morning. Familiar sounds reached her ear, telling her that the big day was under way. She dressed quickly and went downstairs. After eating breakfast hurriedly, she went in to see the tree. It was a beautiful tree, just like there always had been in the Brown home. Soon Mr. and Mrs. Brown came in. Since Judy no longer believed in Santa Claus, and Christ- mas this year was a very serious affair, Mr. Brown started to remove the gifts from the tree without his usual costume. Way. Funny why she should She just couldn't get Bill out went back to bed. In a few He had taken only the first of the gifts from the lower branches when the door flew open and with a gush of cold wind, in came a tall, straight figure in uniform. Sorry I'rn late, he said with a grin. Of course it was none other than Pfc. Bill Brown. At first the three people just sat and stared at him. Then with shouts of surprise and hap- piness, they embraced and kissed him. Every- H. C. I.

Mrs. Brown gathered him' into her arms and when she had choked back the tears of joy which refused to stay hidden, finally managed to ask him all that had happened. He told them how he had finally been res- cued after floating in an open lifeboat for sev- eral weeks. Mr. Brown's eyes filled with pride and affection as he looked at his son. After the reunion was over, Bill suggested that they go back to the Christmas tree which everyone else had forgotten. Once again Bill helped Judy open her gifts, but this time Judy had eyes for Bill only. Even at dinner, with a big brown turkey and all the trimmings, judy's appetite seemed to have forsaken her. It was funny, Indy thought, but if she crossed off all her pretty gifts, toys, and even Christmas dinner, her Christmas was still complete. Phyllis Priest. AMO, AMARE Maxine, Thy loveliness is to my eyes as the lil Which raiseth its white purity to the sky, Which comprehendeth and smiles back A wondrous smile of clarity, Of peace, contentment and tranquility From ethereal depths of azure subtly tinged with fine mauve. Oh, vision, that walkest in the dark night Through the mystery of a rose-scented garden Where love is beckoned but cometh not, Where, alone, a pale moon shineth o'er Grass-carpeted paths, softly dew-covered, Bestirred by thy dainty slipper. Turn, my cherished, my treasure, turn! I beckon, but no reply do the sweet breezes waft to me- Who will watch and wait forevermore That, when you turn, letting me see thy fair countenance, I may be thrilled anew, charmed to ecstatic , heights, And lcontent with an enchanting memory of t ee, Try to restrain my ardor to thoughts alone. Wait, beloved, oh kindly wait a moment! That I ma tell thee of my passion, My love, fove that is like a flame Which, kindled by a magnificent sun, leapeth to that flame-wreathed orb In a glorious, towering blaze of light, Of warmth that reaches out to touch all things Engulfing them in an awesome sweep. Oh, tender rose, so fragile and simple That my joyous affection is but as a wayside blossom Homely, indelicate, and withering in the dust Blown up by a cruel wind which seatters my petals, Leaving me broken, downcast, a beggar As compared to thy flawless noble Visage Held proudly elevated in the fragrant perfume that is a summer's afternoon. If only thy charms might be mine for a mo- ment, Life would have given me her all. And I, engulfed in the rosy mists of memory Might live surrounded by frail, soft and tender reminiscences Of the fleeting beauty that was so resplend- ently thine. Oh, come, happily blissful moment, when I shall enter eternity to await, To await the day when I shall for once and evermore See thy graceful, alluring and exquisite self In everlasting imperishability, when thou shalt be mine. Oh, yes, Maxine, then thou shalt be mine! Lincoln Bishop '45. DEATH OF A PHILOSOPHER Stowed away in the hills of Virginia and buried in the woods-growth of two and a half score of years, lie the remains of the once- peaceful town of Bougainville. The original charter, upon which the town was organized, governed approximately twenty-five square miles. The total population ranges, from year to year, between fifteen and twenty people, and these live on widely separated home- steads. When you stop to consider the fact that no family there is composed of less than two or three adults and six or seven children, you can readily see that there are not many families. In fact, there are only two, namely, the Fletchers and the Treadwells. Nearly eighty years have passed since the little town was founded. At the time, the popu- lation had amounted to nearly fifty, and they had organized a strong and efficient govern- ment. That is, it had been efficient until Matt Treadwell insulted Tommy Fletcher during a heated argument in the midst of the municipal gathering. Life in the little town had been peaceful for nearly five years, but the break came. The weaker and less influential families took sides with one or the other of the warring families. Soon it was unsafe for a man to cross his own dooryard, for fear of being shot down by some unseen assassin. A man never left his 20 H. C. I. SCROLL home unguarded for fear a mysterious Hre might break out at any time and reduce his humble abode to ashes. As time went on, the population gradually reduced itself to the present level, where it has remained quite stationary during the last fifty years. Meanwhile, the population also re- duced itself to the two stronger families, thc Fletchers and the Treadwells. They now live on two homesteads, located about two miles apart. Once or twice a year one or the other of the two groups make the live-mile hike through the hills to prey on their neighbor's homestead, kill off their stock, pick off a few of the menfolk, and perhaps burn down a barn or two. This procedure has been repeating it- self for the past fifty years. As Johnny Kent, poet and philosopher, made his wearisome way through the valleys and over the hills, he was wondering about the possibilities of life, his favorite subject. He had never had much actual education. Neverthe- less, in his travels, he had managed to work out a wonderful understanding of the ways of the world. Now he had come to the hills to be alone. No longer would he be hounded by publishers and people who had read his books. As johnny was going about his daily task, no matter where he was at the time, he might suddenly find himself wondering what effect' a rainstorm would have on his immediate sur- roundings. As the thought ran through hiSL mind, or soon afterward, rain would begin to fall. His mind seemed always to have some pre-indication of anything which was about to happen around him. One afternoon, as Johnny was seated on a rock making some entries in his diary, a bearded stranger peered at him from a rocky ledge almost above him. Gabe Fletcher, great- great-grandson of old Tommy Fletcher, was returning with his two eldest sons from a kill- ing party at Silas Treadwell's across the ridge. Upon seeing the well-dressed, strange fellow below them in the valley, the three men im- mediately suspected him of being a revenue man. No one else was ever seen sitting on stones writing in small black books away out here in the wilderness. The mountaineers were in a vicious mood and Silas' aim was remark- ably accurate. Gabe took johnny's diary with him. Several years later it came to the eyes of a group of research men. Johnny Kent's last entry read: I wonder if the world would miss me if I were to die? Charles Dunham '44. THE WORLD'S CHAMPION The man who is regarded as champion moose caller of the world lives right here in the State of Maine. Several other states claim they have better moose callers, but the Maine Development Service and many out-of-state sports consider jim Rankin champion of the world. This man is a trapper by trade and lives in a remote section of the wilderness bordering on the East Branch of the Penobscot. Rankin travels and works by canoe in summer and on snowshoes in winter. My meeting with this gentleman was purely accidental. As a friend, Stuart and I were working for the University of Maine Forest Department on Wassaticook Stream, a large stream which drains the Katahdin region and Hows into the East Branch about twenty miles from the nearest town, we were caught in a thunder storm. While hurrying back to camp, we ran onto a small, tumble-down log cabin. Upon entering, we found a dark Indian who said his name was Crowfoot jim Rankin. As the storm continued, he invited us to stay over night, and we very willingly agreed. Of course after supper Jim began to tell tales and Stuart, my friend, had a chance to tell some of his, It was then that Jim told us the story of how he had gained the name of champion moose caller of the world. Here is how his story ran- Back in the year of eighty-nine, lim said, a couple of fellows came into my camp one night and said they were working for the Maine Development Service, and that they were sent out to find, if they could, how many moose there were in Maine. I invited them to stay overnight and eventually they hired me to go out and call some moose for them. So early the next morning we struck out by canoe for Burnt Land Meadow. This was a great area burned over and here many moose eat and sleep. When we reached the meadow, we climbed a tree in the meadow. Then I sent forth a call from my birch bark horn. We listened for about fifteen minutes, then the ground began to tremble, and this was fol- lowed by a terrible rumbling. The two men H. C. I. SCROLL 21 n1n1pq1ul-n1n-n1gg-.p1lg1n1ql1n1lq1gl1lq1pq1.g1n.gg..-n.-pg.-ni.q.-g-un1'p.-ggi-gi.'1.,...,, with me thought it was an earthquake until, with a great bellow, a moose came through the trees into the meadow. Soon many more ap- peared. Big moose, bull moose, little baby moose, grandmother moose and cow moose, until all that we could see in that meadow was moose. Well, those fellows counted there until they couldn't see straight and then they gave it up as an impossible job. By this time it was dark, so I blew a false note on my birch bark horn and the moose went crashing away in terror. After the story finally came out how I called those moose many out-of-state sports- men became interested in me. The next winter I was invited to New York, where some of the sportsmen wanted me to give some moose calls, and explain the habits of moose. At a special banquet I did these things and then many people urged me to tell a few tales of the north woods. I spent the rest of the evening telling of my most exciting and thrilling experiences. Iust as the banquet was to finish they presented me a cup, which they said was for being 'Champion Moose Caller of the World'. At this place in the story Iim went to a trunk and took out a small silver cup, saying, I never was much of a hand to read, but I suppose that it says, 'Jim Rankin, Champion Moose Caller of the World'. Stuart got up and took the cup from jim. Here is what he read to himself and then re- lated to me later when we were out of Iim's presence: To the Champion Liar of the World from his friends in New York. Yes, jim Rankin was a champion, but not as he thought people classified him. Reports have come through that old Crowfoot Ran- kin still thinks his silver cup reads Champion Moose Caller of the World. N. Soule '45. -,.L..l11-- LITTLE ANGEL SETTLES A DISPUTE Danny had another black eyel Yes, and it was Larry Stanley who had put it there. Danny Lee and Larry were neighbors, but, oh, far from friendly. They were still keeping up the feud that their fathers and grandfathers had started so long ago. I don't think the youngsters really knew the reason for their disliking each other, but their mothers and fathers knew that Grandfather Lee and Grandfather Stanley had taken it out, hand and fist, right there by the oak tree that was not the property line between the two homesteads. Why all this fighting on their part, you ask? Well, Henry Lee declared his property ran from the stonewall, across the brook, and took in all the pasture beyond, while Thomas Stan- ley definitely said that the border was the brook and the fields beyond were his. The deed was lost in the Lee firm, so they had to make the halfway mark the old oak tree. It really broke up the feeding ground for their horses. Even the horses seemed to under- stand that they weren't to touch the fence be- tween them. - Beyond the rolling hills of the pastures. was the Butler homestead, where a little girl lived. To get back to the boys, there was .Danny crying his heart out, but still in thererpitch- ing, with that ugly black eye. He was not the only bruised one. Larry was also suffering with a shin that Danny had found the oppor- tunity to kick. Oh, oh, what's this? The two fathers, see- ing the quarrel, are both striding toward their sons. But, at this moment, something else takes their attention for, coming across the field, chasing a little gray kitten is the little Butler girl. Q She was having a glorious time. With blond curls and blue eyes to match the clear sky, she was a sight to stop and admire, only for a second however, because, seeing the child's red dress, the Butler's bull had started toward the gate which the little girl had left open. The men, having seen the situation, started to yell and give each other orders. Angel, the little girl, was gleefully calling, Kitty-cat, kitty-cat. But kitty-cat was heading directly for the brook. It took teamwork on the part of both men. If Mr. Lee could outrun the bull and close the gate, if Mr. Stanley could catch Angel before she fell into the brook, the day would be saved. Mr. Lee's heart was in his mouth and pound- ing furiously. It seemed as though his shoes were made of lead. Nearer came the bull, and nearer came the panting Mr. Lee. He grasped the gate and, stumbling, swung it into place, right in the face of the furious bull. But what of Angel? In her haste to catch her kitty, she had fallen over a stone near the edge of the brook. It didn't hurt her because 22 - H. C. I. SCROLL -n1lg.gn1..1 141 1.11 1 1,.1gg1..1..i.. she was used to taking bangs and falls, so she looked up to Mr. Stanley with a ripple of laughter, as she now had the little ball of fur in her arms. As Mr. Stanley picked her up he glanced down at the stone she had tripped over. Sud- denly he called to Mr. Lee, Come here, mighty quick, because there on the stone was written, Property Line-Lee, Stanley, and Butler. Why, this whole pasture was not the property of either Lee or Stanley. It was rightfully part of the Butler homestead. Then a strange thing happened. Mr. Lee smiled at Mr. Stanley and said, Tonight would make a mighty fine time for a party at my place and wouldn't Angel make a pretty little guest of honor. The smile was returned and the time was set. Danny and Larry started building a dam in the creek together and little Angel trudged home, across the field, saying to her little kitty, A party with ice cream and cake! Sylvia Alley '44. THE MASQUERADE Saturday Valentine's evening was the lonig-awaited St. Day masquerade ball. The large gymnasium was gaily decorated with red and whi-te lights. Great red hearts were hanging from the ceiling and on the walls. Brightly colored streamers floated in the air. The gym- nasium was rapidly filling with laughing couples, eager for fun. Later in the eveninig when the party was in full swing, I was standing in the main entrance watching the dancers when I over- heard the following conversation: Say, Bud, who's the girl in the Chinese costume dancing with Bob? I don't know, Jack. Nobody can guess who she is. She says her name is Ya-Ching. She's from the Orient. Guess I'll go and get acquainted, mused Jack. You won't get anywhere with her, replied Bud. She likes classy fellows. Disregarding Bud's warning, Jack went to Ya-Ching and asked her to dance with him. He was fascinated. Did ever a girl dance so smoothly? Could any other masquerader be so aloof and regal? No words could express his delight with Ya-Ching, the Oriental princess. Ya-Ching, he began. Yes,', she answered. Silence for a few minutes while Jack caught his breath. Ya-Ching, let,s go out and walk in the garden. If you wish, she replied haughtily. I've fallen in love,', thought Jack. Such rapture, such delight, such fullness of heart I have never known. 'Ah, Sweet Mystery of Life, At Last I've Found Thee'.,' They walked slowly around thc garden- ,lack making inconsequential remarks to ease his awe and embarrassment, Ya-Ching, cool and contained with a secret smile in her eyes, which Jack, in his own private heaven, did not see. Soon the hour of unmasking was near. The couple returned slowly to the hall where everyone was awaiting, with anticipation, the revealing of their partners. Jack, however, was busy with his own ex- citing thoughts. Would she let him see her home after the ball? Did she like him? Would he like her without the mask? These were the puzzling questions in Jack's mind. Suddenly the signal was heard. Fascinated, Jack watched a hand reach for the mask and another reach for a curl. Revealed stood-not a beautiful princess-but a boy, a mere boy. Forgotten were his dreams, Ya-Ching, love and mystery. He had been tricked, miserably so. Never, never would he fall in love again was Jackis bitter thought. Ile felt like going away and living like a hermit in the woods for- ever. Youth, however, recovers readily. Soon Jack was dancing with the pretty shepherdess, Ya- Ching and his broken heart entirely forgotten. Marilyn Baker '45.

You worried and fretted and knitted your brain for hours at a time, try- ing to think of some way by which you might get him deferred, anything to keep him out of that horrible army. You didn't want your son being called hy a bugle at five o'clock in the morning, along with a lot of other poor, lone- ly, homesick boys, and then marching with a pack on his back all day. All that has changed now. Your efforts to detain him were in vain, and he marched away to drill with Uncle Sam's other nephews. Now he is a Sergeant, with three beautiful stripes to wear on his sleeve. Everywhere you go, whether it be to the office, tfhe club, a restaurant, or just to chat with a neighbor over the back fence, you feel as though you simply must, in some inconspicuous manner, mention you son's rapid advancement. A chip off the old block, that boy! Your son, johnny Q., Jr., has gone into ser- vice overseas, and now there is another matter to contend with. His allotment checks come every month, and there is the fear of losing Iohnny's hard-earned money before it is safely deposited in the bank. The big check comes, nearly always, on Thursday . . . let us say, the second Thursday of every month. If the long, official-looking envelope does not appear on Thursday, you wonder if perhaps the mail- man forgot it. XVhen the Government envelope fails to make its appearance on Friday, you begin to worry. Ilas johnny's allotment been SCROLL 23 cancelled by the authorities They can't do that to your son, No-sir-ee! Or perhaps the mail trains were robbed, there are a lot of govern- ment checks in the mails these days. But if that were the case, you would have read about it in the papers. You can't imagine any crook being low-down enough to steal the money sent 'home from the salaries of those heroic boys who are fighting so bravely for their country. Saturday, at last, the mailman hands you a long brown envelope marked official business . Immediately upon receiving the check, you assume tremendous responsibility. It is your duty to see that johnny's trust gets safely to the bank. The bank closes Saturday noon, and the check will simply have to wait until Monday morning. So, into the safe with it. You very carefully place the envelope way back in the corner, so that it cannot possibly be misplaced. Then, confident that the money is safe, you go about your business as usual, thinking no more about it for the remainder of the day. After retiring, however, you seem to experience ex- treme difliculty in getting to sleep. That grave responsibility hanging on your mind bars all possibility of relaxation. When the first rays of early morning brightness peep over the east- ern horizon, you realize, between yawns, that you haven't closed your eyes all night. The bed-clothes, most of which are on the floor, bear witness to that fact. This goes on until Monday morning, when you rise and prepare for the execution of your first task, the safe deposition of that prime cause of your worrisome weekend, the govem- ment check. Breakfast over, you advance bravely to the safe to withdraw the long brown envelope with its precious contents. The combination worked, after some time of fubbing around, and the safe door open, you stare in amaze- ment at the corner in which you are -sure the envelope should be. That same envelope, with its all-important contents, is gone! A cry, half of rage and half of fear, escapes your lips. After poking around in a jumble of papers, you come upon the innocent appearing missive, and you also come to the conclusion that your wife has been straightening up the papers in your safe. Next, to the bank. On the way, you notiice a headline of a newsboy's paper: Service Al- lotment Checks Stolen, in big black letters. 24 H. C. I.

With a deep sigh of relief, you hand him the .check and Iohnny's bank-book, and watch him very carefully as he makes a few entries in the book. On your way to, the office, you determine to dash off a line, right away, to that son of yours, and tell him how proud you were to take his check to the bank. That brave Ser- geant isn't afraid of those enemy soldiersl No, sir! He's a chip off the old block, that boy! Charles Dunham '44.

Finally, entering a sunlit pool, Assembling in rows as in a schoolg The pulp extends from bank to bank, Like a huge army flank to flank.

THE DENTIST To some the word dentist means only one thing-a perfectly honest profession, but not to mel That one word drums up a neater nightmare than can a devil-food cake with cream filling. When a visit to the dentist is planned, I feel like hiding in a trunk and throwing away the key. Mental pictures of torture chambers, filled with racks and beds of nails, pass before my eyes. The line Come into the parlor, said the spider to the fly has an unpleasant habit of popping into my mind, as the dentist beckons me from the waiting room to his chamber of horrors. He would give you to understand that he is as gentle as your own mother. I guess he means the devil's mother. While I am settling myself in his huge chair, he talks to me, in a soothing voice, about how silly it is of people to dislike going to a dentist. He says it is only nerves. When he says that, I can only muster a sickly grin and can't even nod, for I know what he has up his sleeve, or more exactly, in his hand. When I am half convinced that my fears are ungrounded, he suddenly springs and straps me securely to that huge chair. They say you can't take it with youg-if they are talking about that chair, they are right. You jump, push and wrigigle, but you can't get out. Even if you did escape from its clutch, you most cer- tainly would break your neck, the chair is so high up. When he says I can work on you now, you might as well make up your mind he means just that. Now that I am safely bound to his chair, he changes from Dr. Jekyll to Mr. Hyde. He rubs his hands in glee and gloats over his helpless victim. I'm not altogether helpless, thougvh, because I still have my feet free. I can do a lot with them. He makes me open my mouth wide, until he can put both of his hands and half of his office in it. CWoe unto me if I should slip and bite him.J He pokes from side to side with what looks like a miniature golf club. He wouldn't hesitate to use it for a club either if I didnlt sit still. 'Iihen he looks at drills and selects the larg- est one he has. When he has hit the nerve, he laughs gleefully and shouts madly, That doesn't hurt does it? If you are satisfied with your face the way it is, you hadn't better an- swer! When I think it is all over, he suddenly dis- covers the tooth he thinks should be pulled, and we are off again. He jabs at it with a needle until he is tired and then after regain- ing his strength he hits me with a mallet and with a sly smirk asks if it hurt. If it didn't, it doesn't matter anyway, I am dead! He then takes out his forceps, that is what he calls them, but they are really pliers, al- though of course that isn't generally known outside the profession. H. C. I.

He finally succeeds in pulling it out, with a lot more tugging and jumping around. He holds it up for inspec- tion as proudly as an Indian with a fresh scalp. He informs me that that tooth won't bother me any more. I can only nod and sadly agree and say, I know, Doc, but it is this one back here that bothered me. Even his doors are without knobs-you see, he has heard that one, too. He isn't going to take a chance of losing a victim to work on, so you hadn't better try that one. You never want to go to the dentist feeling that he isn't acquainted with all the intricacies of horror-if you do, you will get a shock that will really rock! Virginia Randall '44.

IF THE OLD MAPLE COULD TALK It has always been a custom of my great- great-grandmothefs to tell us children stories, whenever we visited her. Stories of a super- natural appearance were her favorites. The one I am going to relate is the one that always appealed to my childish imagination. I don't mean to say that I believe in such things, but I can't find even a reasonable solu- tion to it. In 1871 n1y great-great-grandmother, her husband, and her brother came to Topsfield, Maine, from Edinburg, Scotland. Uncle Jim stayed there only a year when he decided that he would rather be out west. He wrote regularly as he made his way west- ward. When he reached Ohio, no more was ever heard from him. Many agreed that he had drowned in the flood which was raging at that time in that state. One winter's late afternoon, twenty or so years later, Gram was outside doing the chores, as her husband was in the woods. She looked up the road and saw a man coming slowly down it. Fearing the man to be a tramp, she ran quickly into the house and locked the doors behind her. She watched him make his way down the road from behind a curtain. As he drew close enough for his face to be seen, she recognized him as Uncle Jim. She called to the children and they, too, watched. In the front yard there grew a huge maple, and as he passed behind it, it obstructed their view. They waited tensely for him to appear and to see if he would turn into the drive. They watched, but he didn't come out from behind the tree. They gazed at the tree as if bewitched until it was too dark to see. N0 one dared venture forth to see if he were there, or to finish the undone chores. The next morning, all brave in the daylight, they ran to the tree to see if he were there or if there were any tracks. He wasn't and there weren't any tracks around the tree nor in the road. We have asked her a thousand or more ques- tions and offered as many solutions, but each time she only shakes her head. I have told you this as she has so many times told us. Perhaps you know the answer. But, remember, they didn't have heliocopters then. Virginia Randall '44. MY BANNER I looked up and saw, waving on high, A bright banner against a blue sky.

Baker '46, A SHIP BURNS It was the Fourth of july and my parents, my brother and sisters, my brother-in-law and I were spending the week at our camp at the western shore of Sebec Lake. The day was beautiful and the wind rippled the surface of the lake, causing each wave to sparkle like stars in the heavens on a clear night. For several weeks the Seaboard Company had been towing huge booms of pulpwood down the lake with a thirty-five foot cabin, inboard, salt water ship brought from the coast. The day was such an ideal day that thc crew had decided to fasten two booms of logs together and haul them to the dam at the out- let of the lake, where later they would be sluiced down the river. These booms con- tained about fifteen hundred cords of pulp. The boat and its booms appeared in the narrows just at dinner time, and an hour later it had advanced a mile. Suddenly a strong wind began to blow from the southwest and the boom started to swing shoreward. While trying to roll the whole boom, the engine of t-he boat stalled and when it was started again the motor baeklired into the oil pit. At this time the boat was about fifty rods from shore and when a puff of black smoke appeared, wc, who were watching on the shore, knew that some catastrophe had taken place. Immediately Nathan, my brother-in-law, and I jumped into our boat and while I was start- in-g the motor, Nathan scooped up several pails of sand from the beach. We rcalized that water would not put out an oil fire. It took us but a few seconds to reach the stricken craft. Three men very quickly 1qp,1pl1gg1,q1.gi..1..1..1 ,pg-.gg-.l.ig,1..1....... grabbed the pails of sand, and back to shore we went in our speedy little craft for more sand. After two trips the boss of the crew decided that the burning boat could not be saved, so we transferred the crew and a few valuables into our boat while some other campers, who had arrived, cut the big towboat loose. Fearing every moment that the gas tanks might explode, we went back to the beaoh to watch the abandoned boat burn. I, being an amateur photographer, hurried back to the cottage to get my camera, and then, very cautiously, I circled the vessel in my light skill and shot two rolls of film. By this time huge orange flames were lick- ing around tihe portholes and through the cabin doors. An immense cloud of thick, black smoke was the result of burning oil and gas. Guided and aided by a rising wind the boat began drifting down the lake and farther away from the forest-clad shore. The crew estimated that, by this time, the fire must have reached the gasoline tanks, and we waited in suspense for several minutes while the flames towered higher and the smoke became thicker and heavier. . just as we had begun to believe that The Pilot would not be entirely demolished a muf- fled roar broke out and grew into a thunderous, ear-splitting explosion, which seemed to re- echo in the warm summer air. Then we saw the superstructure and the cabin part from the rest of the ship, while debris and flaming brands were lifted several hundred feet into the air. The rumbling, rush- ing echo went slowly up and down the length of the lake, bouncing back and forth, finally fading away into the surrounding hills until it could be heard no longer. There was no sound to be heard except the crackling of flames after the explosion, for the crew and bystanders all deeply felt the sorrow and depression of seeing such a beautiful craft ruined. The hull and a few spars burned merrily away until the fire reached the water level and then the gallant ship gracefully and gently listed! to the port side, and disappeared be- neath the surface of the now blackened and oil covered waves, which still rolled up in countless numbers, apparently unaware of -the tragic episode which had just taken place. . Neil Soule '45. A BEGINNING winter of 1778 in a small A sleet storm with frequent been raging for the past three days and nights. The third night, however, multitudes of stars were twinkling everywhere, the wind was blowing, ripping branches from trees, and sometimes-crash! a tree fell across It was in the backwoods town. snow flurries had the road. As a result of the furious storms, the trees, covered with a thick coat of ice, were bent to the earth as if whispering to her. Yes, this was a winter night in the small town of Briarville. Perhaps the outside world was chaotic, but not the home of the De Becks. Although the storm had caused much confusion in their household, nevertheless there was a feeling of contentment on this particular night. Why should a storm disturb them? They need not worry about the roads being plowed, rather, they could enjoy a blocking storm. They knew nothing of the great destruction brought to the world by similar meansg not even the war, of which they were really a part, was.close to them. No radio informed them of every battle and the details of the international affairs. This typical family was sheltered from the world and its sorrows, and they were satisfied with this shelter. It was about 7:30 in the eveningg Mr. and Mrs. De Beck were sitting in front of their fireplace silently watching the flames crawl up- ward. They seemed to see the story of their lives thereg their youth in the leaping flames, their later years in the quieter blue ones, their older days now in the last embers and glowing coals that were slowly turning to ashes. There the old couple sat dreaming of their earlier days. They talked a little about their children, their oldest son was fighting for their new country. They seldom heard from himg yes, they worried, but they had no accurate con- ception of war and its horrors. They did not admit their worries to each other, but har- bored t-hem in their own hearts. At 8 o'cloek, after the fire had died down considerably, Mrs. De Beck pulled the shades, w'hile her husband went to lock the outside door. As he opened it to glance at the out- side world, he looked to heaven with this prayer in his heart: Father, bring back our boy to us. -lie bolted the door and returned to the kitchen, where his wife had a glass of milk ready for his regular bedtime lunch. Then quietly they climbed the ladder to the SCROLL 27 H. C. I. loft, lighted by their candles. The faithful mother went to the beds of both hcr children, Cynthia and Andrew. Snugly tucked in, they were dreaming of their brave soldier brother. Mrs. De Beck stooped and kissed her two children, praying that they might not know about horrible wars. After a long night Mr. De Beck, awakened by the familiar cock-crowing, glanced outside at the now eahn dooryard. Ile turned around to look at his wife, who was sleeping soundly. I'll build the fires before I awake her, he thought. Mr. De Beck went down the ladder and into the kitchen to build the fires. Before going back to call Priscilla, his wife, he unlocked the kitchen door and stepped outside on the piazza. Looking down the road he could see a form moving slowly. It's a man, no doubt a tramp,', he said half-aloud. Ile returned to the house, but something told him to watch that body. Nearer, nearer, still nearer. It became very clear at last. lt is a young man about thirty Why, it resembles is away fighting.

Nothing will separate us again. Now, how arc the kids? I want to see them. The children came tumbling down from the loft, rejoicing at the sight of their brother. The family was complete again. They were thankful, everything now was completeg noth- ing was going to harm them again, for john had fought to give them freedom. This family was like so many others who could not see into the future. They did not realize that the generations of their descend- ants would each witness a similar, but more terrible experience. At that time a man went to fight with his musketg little was heard until 28 H. C. I. SCROLL I..-..1..1.a1,.... 1.g1u1n1.a1g11un1uu1uu1..-nu he came back or the war ended and he was missing. Now it is differentg families can prac- tically follow their sons to the battleiieldsg they know the moves of the army. But the anxiety is the same at the bottom, all families love their sons. So it has been since 1776. Each time men have fought to free their land, and they are still fighting. The De Becks saw only the beginning. Shall we see the end? Margaret Bradford. THE GREAT FEAR It was spring, and one of those dreary driz- zles tried its best to spread gloom over all. Yet in Mrs. Brown's house there was great evidence of cheer and happiness, for Chuck was coming home! After two years and seven months. he would be home. It seemed unreal, she still kept thinking that he might never come back. Could all that nightmare-his time overseas-be over? Could it really be true that Chuck was safe? All day she had been busy preparing for his homecoming. That morning she had seen that all things were in the same places as when he had left. Everything must be the same. At present she was very busy cooking. Chuck had always liked to eat and all his favorite dishes were waiting for him. His mother could remember him when he was a child and the look of happiness which came over his face at the sight of apple pie. Today there was not only one apple pie but two. He must have all he wanted. Suddenly she stopped. A thought had just come to her-a horrible thought. She was keeping everything in Chuck's home the same as it had been when he had left. But she could not keep Chuck the same. He had killed others and had been exposed to the danger of being killed himself. He had seen his best friends suffer. Would Chuck be the same even if he were not changed physically? What effect would all his horrible experiences have on him? Would this young boy who had enlisted retum a man -and, if so, what kind of a man? These thoughts are being turned over in the minds of all people havin-g boys in the service, she said to herself, and still their boys return the same. Mr. Brown was also thinking of this as he worked, or as he tried to work. Fears of the war's having changed Chuck assailed him in ..-un1nn.-uu1nn1un1nu1 1 1 -1..1q.1nn.1n1u1u spite of himself. Chuck was to retum home on the eleven- fifteen train. The evenings always went slow- ly, but as long as they could remember the Browns had never spent one which was as long as this one seemed. The radio helped keep their minds from that dreaded thought until a play, in which a goldier was returning home, was broadcast. Ile had a new nose, a new ear, and most of the Skin on his face was not his, but had been willingly given by a buddy. On return- ing home no one recognized him, not even his parents, until he spoke. Eleven-fifteen, and the train was coming slowly into the station. Suddenly a tall lieu- tenant, deeply tanned by a tropical sun, stepped forward. He was smiling a slight, one-sided grin, and in his eyes was the glitter of a small, mischevious boy. But behind this was a look of pain which showed suffering- and depth of understanding. All fears were forgotten and .his parents rushed forward to greet him-their son. M. Shirley '45. EASTER Easter e'er reminds us Of days so long ago, When the angel rol-led away the stone And Christ, our Lord, arose. He died on Calvary's Cross, That we might live again, In a happy land where there's no war, No suffering and no pain. In a war-tom land, Far across the sea, Our soldier boys will kneel and pray, Thanking God they're free. And some day in the future, The sun is going to shine, On an everlasting, peaceful world, Which will be mine and thine. Marilyn Grant '45. ON TAKING MY OWN PHOTOGRAPH It is very embarrassing to go into a public photograph booth and take your own picture. First, you cannot decide in which place you will have your picture taken. You walk back H. C. I. SCROLL 29 and forth on several different streets trying to make up your mind. Finally, you decide on a :null photography shop you just passed. When you passed it there were only a few people there. In your mind you think that the less people there are to see you the less embar- rassed you will be. As you approach the place there is a crowd of people voicing their opinion on someone clse's picture or laughing at their own. After viewing the moronic sight for a few minutes you decide not to lower your dignity, and, be- sides, who wants to look at your homely face anyway? With satisfaction you walk away from the place, but not for long, because you have come to the conclusion that you are not as good as you think you are, and what dignity have you to lower anyway? Not only that, but your relatives, having looked at your face once, might use your picture to supplement the low supply of food. With determination you walk to the place once more. You stand outside watching the crowd and your courage shrinks again. You hear the people laughing uproariously at some- one's picture. You aren't going to let this get you down this time though, so you push through the crowd, up to the photography booth. Again you hesitate. Your courage be- gins to fail, but by some superhuman effort you force yourself towards the booth. Now all eyes are centered on you. You feel like a victim who has committed a crime and is being led to the electric chair. From the crowd are heard such remarks, Look how deep his facial scars are. His tie is out of place. His hair needs combing. These re- marks increase your embarrassment. At last you are in the booth. A curtain can be pulled over the entrance but there is a crack, through which people can see and which doesnit keep out the remarks. This helps relieve your embarrassment, however, and your courage is really very good now. The next task is to assume a correct posi- tion. This takes some time. Now you are again on the spot. Here you are all ready to take your picture and you don't know how to do it. Finally, you read the instructions and you think you know how to run the machine. Well, here goesl You press the button and wait for the machine to snap. Meanwhile you wonder what all the people outside are doing. You have been in the booth at least fifteen minutes. At last the lights go out and you are free. Still there is the crowd to face. Slowly you draw back the curtain and walk out. The people hardly notice you. In their desire to look at different pictures they have forgotten you even exist. Your pictures are ready now and you look at them out of one eye. They aren't so bad to look at with one eye, so you open them both. Then you call yourself a fool for making such a fuss over taking your own picture. F. Harvey '45. DEATH OF AN OLD MAN On a dark and dreary summer's night, With neither moon nor stars in sight, The lonely coyote's call is drear As it rings throughout the forest clear. Among the hills in a little camp Where the trees are thick and the air is damp. The prairie air blows through the boughs, A dreary mourn when the coyote howls. An old man with his dog lives there, Away from all, with no worry or care. His clothes are ragged and his coat is torn, But this is the home where he was born. He often thinks of his childhood days, Of his mother, father, and of their ways He thinks of his sisters and brothers three, And that he is the last of the family tree. His mother and father died long ago, He could hardly remember, the years went so slow. His lflrothers and sisters were much older than 9, And they'd gone from there when he was three. He looked back on the days when he'd had so much fun, Now, he recalled them, one by one. He remembered that he'd liked to fish and to roam, But most vivid of all was the view of his home. Now he was old and no one was near, If he should be ill, who was there to hear? Suddenly a pain pierced straight through his . heart, He cried out in horror and sat up with a start. He finally got up and went toward the door But another pain came and he slumped to the floor! The dog by his side licked at his face, But there was no life, not even a trace. 30 H. C. I. SCROLL 11111111111 1111 1 ... 1111 4.111111111111111 In that forest today may still stand that camp Where the trees are still thick, and the air is still damp, And there may be a man who is living there - now, Where the wind still blows, and the coyotes howl. Mabel Batchelder '46. - THE BIG STORM During the night of November 22, 1943, I was suddenly awakened from a troubled sleep by a deafening crash. I sat up in bed, para- lyzed with fear and scarcely daring to breathe. Outside, the elements seemed to be engaged in fierce combat. The wind was blowing vio- lently and rain was beating savagely against the windowpanes. I decided the noise I heard was caused by a falling tree that had unfor- tunately been in the path of the relentless wind. . Pulling the covers warmly around my shoul- ders and snuggling down into my bed again, I attempted to resume my nocturnal date with Morpheus. But Morpheus was no rival for the storm outside and I spent the remainder of the night wide awake and restless. In the morning the wind was still howling ominously and the driving icy rain had not ceased. Many trees and branches had fallen during the night and had broken the electric wires, thereby shutting off the current to the girls' dorm. We had to eat breakfast by the light of candles which were protruding im- posingly from the necks of pop bottles. When it became light enough for us to see we were amazed at the tremendous amount of destruction the storm had wrought during the night. Telephone poles were in horizontal positions across the road and, along with the trees and branches that had fallen, the high- ways were rendered impassable. The storm continued unceasingly through- out the day and we were forced to prepare for bed in the dark if we weren't clever enough to filche a candle from an unsuspect- ing neighbor.. In the stillness of the following morning the world was incredibly lovely. The storm had ceased during the night and the trees were frozen over with a coat of ice that shone and sparkled brightly wherever the sun touched it. The ground boasted a glittering whiteness and, altogether, the scenery was truly ethereal in its beauty. Restoration crews were busily clearing away 11114111111u1l1111111111111... 111111111-11111-11 the broken trees and polcsg their dark figures in sharp contrast to the surrounding white- ness. Everyone was hilariously happy because this was the beginning of the Thanksgiving holidays. Gwendolyn D. Small. MY FAVORITE BOOKS In my room at home I have a small hook- case which probably holds one hundred vol- umes. This bookcase is one of my most bc- loved earthly possessions, because it contains all of my favorite books and illustrative arti- cles on outdoor sports and nature. There are books in this case which I have collected from childhood and also some books which are a great deal older than I am. A person glancing over the shelves might see such famous and popular books as Tom Sawyer, T he Outdoor Trail, Treasure Island, Down the Ice, and The Pilgrim's Progressf' Many of the copies which I had when I was younger are in a series, such as The Hilltop Boys, the lives of such famous personages as George Washington and Abra- ham Lincoln, and a series of the Bobbsey Twins . The -books that stand out most in my mind are those on nature and adventure. My great- est love lies in a worn and torn edition of The Outdoor Trail . This book was one of the first editions to be printed and it has been borrowed and loaned many times. Another of my prize articles is the history of Sitting Bull and the Indian Wars, which has been handed down through several gen- erations of the family. Long before I was old enough to read and understand I would look at the pictures in this big book. My most recent addition to the nature series is Maine Land, a beautiful book con- taining many photographs taken in Maine. This was written by Marian Bradshaw of the Bangor Theological Seminary and it is truly a great book. The bottom shelf of my bookcase is filled with miscellaneous books. For example, I have several books and charts on modem airplanes, several small bird books, many outdoor stories and tales, several manuals on photography, and different editions published for the benefit of those who are interested in the new rules each year pertaining to such sports as tennis, bad- minton, football and baseball. I sometimes wonder why each time I pass H. C. I. this bookcase I am drawn to it as if some force were literally dragging me to this spot. As my eyes run over the shelves, and light upon hooks of all kinds, I feel a singing in my heart as some outstanding feature of that cer- tain book is brought back to me. All other cxisting circumstances fade and it seems that I am actually living through the same experi- ences as the characters. One may always go back to these books and this is the reason why I love to read so well. When I get a longing to read a certain story again I wander to my room and stand looking at my bookcase. I belieye that every- one will agree with me when I say that a hook is man's most intriguing manner of re- viewing and reliving the past, pursuing the present and traveling forward into the future, all in a few hours time. Neil Soule '45. A SCENE IN A SMALL-TOWN RESTAURANT As Alice and I walked slowly into Good- ville's only restaurant the odor of liquor and smoke reached us. Soon we were seated and ordered our lunch. This was a new town to us and we looked curiously about the room. Our attention was soon attracted to a group of girls opposite us, who were laughing and talking noisily. They were about sixteen years of age, dressed in slacks and sports clothes. They attracted a lot of attention with their free use of profane words. Alice and I could hear their conversation as they cursed the food and the service. While we were wonder- ing why they used such language, a group of fellows came over to talk to them. By this time the girls were not only talking profanely, but were smoking and d-rinking. We noticed that the boys did not stay long and had very little to say to these young ladies . . . if they may be called such. After the boys had left the restaurant, Alice asked why I thought girls carried on in such a manner, especially in public. We decided that the girls who smoke, drink and swear in public think that they are getting away with something and, at the same time, are being very smart and cute. We also decided that the average young man does not like to see a girl act in this manner, but rather pictures his ideal girl as being a wholesome, sweet young lady. By this wc do not mean that the girl has to be SCROLL 31 serious all of the time but she should be full of fun and a good sport. As we listened we heard one of the girls ask if the others would like to spend the night with her as her parents were not at home. Each girl decided that this was a wise plan, for they dared not go to their own homes in their present condition. By this time Alice and I were through eat- ing and we left the place thoroughly disgusted with modern girls and their ideas of a good time. Eunice Merrill '44. A FRIEND 'l'herc's nothing much more wonderful Than a close friend or two, Who'll give one needed assistance, And help to guide one through When the road gets rough and bumpy, And the strain seems hard to bear, A friend is someone wishing That he might share the care.

SPRING Spring is coming, spring is near, The skies are clear and blue, The maple trees are budding out, The grasses spring anew. The birds are building on their homes, They toil from morn 'till night, They weave together straw and mud, They work with all their might.

Their eyes tell of suffering, but they have a look of gladness on their faces as they come in sight of the sky- scrapers of New York. They have heard a great deal about the Statue of Liberty and its meaning, now at last they see it. It gives them hope to start life anew. They are here from what were once the free countries of Austria, Czechoslovakia and Poland. They can forget, now, the torture of both mind and body that they have re- ceived under dictatorship. Now they can en- joy the human right to work, worship and walk on sidewalks or in parks unharmed. Now they are in America and are free! Yet, when we hear of many refugees land- ing, we don't like it. We think and believe that these foreigners are coming to take our jobs from us and to live on our relief. This sort of thinking breeds hatred. However, these refugees do not go on relief. They have made a promise not to do so. Certain organizations and associations help them to get started on a new path of life so that they can keep this promise. As far as making our jobs scarce, the coming of these refugees has made many new jobs for Americans. New products and new processes of manufacturing are on hand and we can thank the refugees for it. Another contribution these refugees have made is, that among them are some of the world's most noted scientists, writers, actors and artists. Since these people, who are very much like ourselves, believe in the promises of America and in its peace and liberty, why should we, as Americans, dislike and distrust them? Let us, every one, be friendly and help these people. Phyllis Osgood '47, MY FISHING TRIP Once I went fishing. Just once, too, for I didn't want to spoil my good record. I was going out to a favorite sunfish hole to catch a few lsunfish. I had a bush for a pole, a trout hook, and some of Ma's best sewing thread for a line. For bait I had a genuine fly. Not one of these fancy and flashy flies that all the fishemnen rave about, but a genuine horse- fly, right from the horse's ear, I not only got Pl -.pg-.ni..1..1..i..1...-..1,,- -..-.,,1,..1..?,,i.,.- the horse out of misery but I also caught the largest and only fish in all my life. I was sitting in a tub, which I used as a boat, looking over the side at a large school of sunlish swarming around my could-be boat. All of a sudden there was a whirl, splash, bang, thrash, pop, snap, and I suddenly felt myself moving at a very swift rate of speed, perhaps faster than I should have liked to go. It was half an hour later when I woke up. I was sprawling on the ground. As I looked up l saw a sixty-eight pound sunfish in the top of an old elm tree. Hoy! sunfish can jump when they want to. But the remarkable part of thc whole thing was that the sewing thread did not break. Good thread! N. Cummings '46. THE BLESSINCS OF FREEDOM What other country has freedom like ours? What other has privileges like we? Our religions, our race, our blood Make no difference in our democracy. When other lands are lying war-torn, And liberty is lost, When hearts are filled with tears and strife And fear of German host, And only do we realize, then What rights and pleasures we enjoy, For life is free and happy For every gfUWll-up girl and boy.

SPRING FEVER Spring fever is a terrible disease. People usually catch it in the spring, when the leaves are starting to sprout and the grass is turnik' green. Here at school, however, spring fever starts about the middle of january and doesn't stop until the end of the school year. It is a disease that is nearly harmless, that is, it doesn't leave one in poor health. But it may leave one with a broken heart, as somc people have found out. The cause of this disease is not known, but it is believed to be caused by a Gremlin who wakes up at a certain time each year. When lie does start his tricks, it is hard to stop him. Ile affects boys especially, but I have seen some girls who are seriously stricken, too. Such people go around all day sighing, dreaming, and looking into space. Probably the best cure for this disease is Nature itself, but a good dash of cold water might help. Another possible cure for it is a good thump on the head, which will either kill or cure .

Twenty-two new members were initiated October 20th. The lady members of the fac- ulty were present and refreshments were served following the candlelight ceremony.

At one meeting scrapbooks were made for the Bangor Childrenis Home. It was voted to send Eunice Merrill, Helen Brown, 'Phcresa Higgins and Mary Shirley as delegates to the Y. W. C. A. Conference in Bangor May 6th and 7tl1. The Cirl Reserves have had a very success- ful year with one of the largest membership enrollments at Higgins. H. C. I. SCROLL 37 - Home Economic - HOME ECONOMICS DEPARTMENT The lloiue Economics course which is oi'- fered here at lliggins has proven very suc- ccrsful. This course is chosen by many of thc girls because they realize the fact that, sooner or later, it will be of great help to them. During the year many different projects are taken up. This year each class spent the first six weeks of school canning fruits and vege- tables for the Canning Center. The classes are informal and many discussions of interest take place. The Sophomore class, which is the first year of llome Economics, the students begin with the fundamental topics, such as grooming, man-- ocrs and personality. They also spend part of the year sewing and cooking. In sewing, sim- ple garments are made from cotton, while in cooking the breakfast program is followed. After the various types of breakfast have been thoroughly studied, the girls prepare and serve a meal. This year the junior class studied dinners from Christmas until Easter. While taking up this subject, u buffet lunch and an informal dinner were served to the faculty. At these dinners each girl was assigned her special dutv, wlictlier it be hostess, cook, or waitress. The Senior class spent one term studying dietetics and also spent a few weeks on child care. During their study of children, a party was given to all of the small children around town. A very pleasant afternoon was spent and it was especially interesting to watch the childrcn's reaction as they played together. Both the junior and Senior classes made garments for sewing class. These garments are more advanced than those made by the Sopho- mores and may be made from any kind ef material . . . many chose to make wool suits. On the whole it is felt that the program has been very successful and it is hoped that next year a course in llomc Economics may bc given to the boys. Not only do boys like to cook, but it is helpful for them to know the correct method of darniug socks and pressing pants. Eunice Merrill '4-4. SCHOOL LUNCH PROGRAM The town students enjoyed hot lunches dur- ing the winter terui. These lunches were served each noon in the Home Economics room and were made possible by the Canning Center, which was supported in the town last snnnner with the cooperation of the state de- partmcnt. A portion of the food canned was set aside for this purpose, under the terms of the state's program. The dinners cost ten cents and were either paid for in cash or exchanged for prod- ucc. Each day several of the town women came to the school to help serve the lunches, which numbered 140 on one day but averaged between 100 and 110. This program was under the supervision of Miss Hillman, to whom much credit is due for its success. Appreciation is also expressed to the women of the tevvn, who so generously of- fered their services. R. Cameron '45. 3 i H. C. I.

SCROLL - PORT - FOOTBALL The football squad this year was made up of light, inexperienced boys, but in spite of this the team had a great season. Their only defeat was to Stearns. This was the second game of the year, and it is the opinion of many that had the game been played later in the season after the boys had had more practice and ex- perience they could have beaten them. The team was coached by Philip Keith and much of the credit for the success of the team can be given to him. Members of the team were: Bert Goddard, Richard jackson, Frank Mace, Lester Stevens, Arthur Leibrun, Carl Young, Captain Claude Dunham, James Anderson, Neil Soule, Chester Buck, Richard Watson, Chester Trundy, Ger- ald Page, Reginald Brown, Harold Higgins, Howard Foley, Philip Deane, Judson Roberts, Paul Parks, Royce Wheeler, John Keith, NVil- liam MacDonald, Michael Surtees, Parnell Hare, Garth Folsom, Bradford Brown, and Ronald York. Donald Johnson was the man- ager. Summary of the games: Higgins 14 Greenville 6 lliggins started the season with a win over Greenville. lliggins took a few minutes to get going but when they did they couldn't be stopped. Anderson made the first touchdown by an end run. Still in the First period Ander- son threw a pass to Page, who also scored. Harold Higgins entered thc game to kick the extra point. Higgins 0 Stearns 26 The oierpowering Stearns team defeated lliggins in a game played at Millinocket. The Stearns line was strong and the Higgins line eouldn't hold them back. The Higgins team improved, hoxveve1', as the game progressed, and during the last half they were almost hold- ing their own. Higgins 0 Foxcroft 6 This gaine was a hard fought game from start to finish. WR-atlierhee of Dover was the ehiel' problem for Higgins, and it was largely through his ellorts that Dover tied the score. They failed to make the extra point, thus sav- ing thc day for Higgins. -,n1..l1rni1 1 .. 1 .,.-.1 1 -..n.-qi .-. .- H. c. 1. SCROLL ' 43 Higgins 6 Dexter 0 The game with Dexter was nip and tuck all the way. just when things would begin to look promising for Higgins they would lose the ball. In the second period Dunham threw a pass to Goddard, who was downed on the five- yard line Lebrnn then crashed through the line to score. The Dexter team nearly scored several times but lost the ball each time on downs. Higgins 26 Greenville 6 Greenville started in strong but soon gave the ball to Higgins, and they began a drive that carried them seventy yards to the first touchdown. The score was made by Page on a run around left end. The Higgins team scored twice in the fourth period, the scores being made by Page and Lebrun. Anderson's passing and Watson's punt from mid-field were two outstanding features of the day. Higgins 26 Foxcroft 0 ln this game with Foxeroft the blocking of the Higgins team was sharp, clean and effec- tive. In the second period Captain Dunham ran forty yards to score and again in the third period he scampercd thirty yards on a reverse to score a touchdown. Anderson did a great job when he crashed the Foxeroft line for the other two touchdowns. The game was played under terrible conditions, which consisted of rain. hail and thunder. Higgins 7 Old Town 2 Higgins wound up a great season with a 7-2 victory over Old Town. In the first period Anderson broke away for a forty-yard run. After gaining a first down Anderson threw a twenty-yard pass to Goddard, who ran for the touchdown. Higgins made the extra point by a pass. Dunham got a low pass and was tackled behind the goal line. Higgins soon recovered the ball and managed to hold the favored Old Town team to the end. BASEBALL At the first sign of spring the boys got out their gloves and started passing in the gym and in the road, anxiously waiting for the first spring practice. Coach Keith called the first practice three weeks after Easter vacation and the varsity has not yet been picked. Since the Scroll is being published earlier this year than usual, we will not be able to give you the results of the games but the team looks very promising and we are expecting a good season. C. E. H. ..1 BASKETBALL Several weeks after the football season ended Coach Keith announced the first basket- ball practice. A large group of boys turned out and after several practices Coach Keith selected the varsity squad. The squad con- sisted of the following: Dick Watson, Harold Higgins, Phil Deane, Vance Foss, Lester Stevens, Leland Lowery, Dwight Strout, George Ilamlin, Bob Higgins, Frank Mace, Carl Young, Neil Soule, Ken Masse, and Jimmie Anderson. V The team lacked experience, which is per- haps the reason why they got off to such a bad start. The results of the season were six wins and twelve losses out of the eighteen games played. Summary of the games: Higgins 33 Foxcroft 37 The first game was a practice game, but it was fast from the beginning. Many of the Hig- gins boys were playing their first game of var- sity basketball, but in spite of this they put up a good fight all the way. Higgins 30 Charleston Town Team 35 The green Higgins team gave the town team a good fight, which was a big surprise to everyone. Higgins led way into the third quarter before they gave over the lead to their experienced rivals. The Higgins guards did a fine job and intercepted many passes. Higgins 40 Foxcroft 34 ln another practice game with Foxcroft, Higgins took them by a forty to thirty-four count. After starting slow the Higgins team came back strong in the fourth period and started a rally which gave them the game. Higgins 30 Brewer High 38 Higgins went down to defeat in their sched- uled game. The preppers were poor on the set shots and were no equal to the fast passing Brewer team. The game showed that Hig- gins had a lot to learn about defensive and offensive basketball. 44 1 H. C. I. SCROLL ' Higgins 20 H. C. I. Alumni 55 Higgins proved no match for the experi- enced Charleston Town Team. The Higgins team was off both on shooting and passing, and messed up many good scoring opportuni- ties, due to inexperienee. Higgins 31 Foxcroft 45 Higgins, after playing a good first half, faded in the last half to lose by a substantial margin. Robinson of F oxcroft proved to be a big factor in the success of his team. Higgins 30 Mattanawcook 42 This game in many respects was just the opposite from the Foxcroft game. Higgins, after playing poorly in the first half, came to life in the second half and threatened to make a ball game out of the contest after all. Higgins 18 Guilford 37 Losing the third game in a row to the strong Guilford team was just about what was ex- pected by the Higgins team. Guilford led throughout the game and there was little doubt about who won. This was Guilford's ninth straight victory. Higgins 37 John Bapst 61 The strong Bapst team ran away from Hig- gins in the second half of the game to win by a large margin. Higgins went to pieces in the last half, making only two points in the fourth , period. Higgins 42 Lincoln 30 The Higgins varsity reversed the score on the Mattanaweook team in the second meet- ing. Aside from a bad second period the Hig- gins team played good ball throughout the game. Higgins 69 Pittsfield B. C. 23 Higgins, playing a fast break and shooting very accurately, romped to an easy victory over the Pittsfield Boys' Club. The boys on the Pittsfield team were for the most part from M. C. I. Higgins 23 Column 33 Higgins lost one of its big games of the season by falling before the Coburn team. The game was played in the Colby College Field House, which may have been the reason for Higgins' bad shooting. Anyway, Higgins looked bad. Higgins 19 Guilford 27 This game was fast and hard fought with Guilford finding it very tough going after the first period. Higgins might well have toppled the visitors if their shooting had been more accurate. Higgins' passing was the best of the season. H. C. I. Higgins 33 Foxcroft 34 This was a very close and exciting game. just before the final whistle the score became tied. In the overtime Mace sunk a long one, putting Higgins in the lead, but instead of holding the ball they tried for another shot and Foxcroft got a basket and a free throw. Higgins 23 Brewer 21 Higgins won a close, hard-fought game from the Brewer Witches in their own gym. The small floor made basketball difficult and the game was decided mostly by fight. Higgins so T Pittsfield B. c. 34 Higgins started strong and built up a big lead in the first period. At different intervals during the game Higgins' seemed to slow up but at no time could Pittsfield forge ahead. Higgins 59 Coburn 21 Led by Anderson and Mace, Higgins went on a rampage in the third period and pushed thirty points-in t'o the basket. The feature of the game was the rapid passing and handling of the ball by Higgins. Higgins 39 Colby Frosh 41 After leading well into the third and fourth periods Higgins faded in the closing minutes to lose by two points. Higgins lost three men in the third and last periods via the foul route. Higgins 39 Bangor Team 37 Higgins won over the Bangor team in a game that was fast from start to finish. Bob MacDonald left the game in the third period with an injured ankle. This was the last game of the season for the varsity. G. Hamlin '45.

During our class games many participated. SCROLL 45 The team was fairly successful throughout the season with many close games. The tough- est game was with Lincoln. They had excep- tionally good teamwork but we managed to hold them the fi1'st quarter with a tie score, seven to seven. The second quarter they scored ahead of us by two points and at the close ol' the game the score was twenty-one to lxveuty-siv in Lint-oln's favor.

Wilkie Wendell Wilkie had an opportunity to lly around the world in the middle of thc war to see and talk to hundreds of people in nrorc than a dozen countries and to talk with many of the world's leaders. lt gave him some new and urgent ideas which hc has passed on to us through his book. Thcy are based on things hc saw and learned and upon views of men and women whose sacrifices give meaning and life to their ideas. In this book we find the results of his findings. Wilkie's ideas on the post-war world are both startling and puzzling. Many ideas can be woven into this one sentence which I shall quote from the book. In speaking of the Reservoir of Good Will which existed throughout the world, he said: Ours must be used to unify the peoples of the earth in the human quest for freedom and justice. The water in this reservoir is the clean, invigorat- ing water of freedom. I think credit should be,given to the writers and publishers of this book. Wendell Wilkie in the story was a different Wendell Wilkie from the one you and I know. Ile was just another you and I giving his honest-to-good- ness viewpoint on the world of today and the post-war world. My knowledge of the difiicultics facing the world has been increased by this book and I realize as I have never realized before that we, the youth, must plan for a New World of To- morrow. J. A. P.

WE TOOK TO THE WOODS Between the time Louise Dickenson Rich gave up wanting to be a brakeman and defin- itely decided to be an English teacher, she would say that she was going to live in the Maine woods and write. There is, however, one pleasant difference between the imagined and the real. Louise Dickenson does live in the Maine woods with her husband, Ralph Rich. They live in a cabin in the heart of the Rangeley Lakes region of Maine. There is nothing on the hills but forest and nobody lives there but deer, bears and vvildcats. The lakes come down from the north, forming a huge staircase to the sea. llere in the woods the whole panorama of lift- unfolds, and Nlrs. Rich gives drama to ber wildcrncss-trialsi' in a very interesting inan- ncr. X-Ve Took TO The XVoods is more than an adventure storyg it is more than a natnrc stndy. lt fills the hearts of'city uslickersn and folks unaccustomed to the way of the woods with cnvyg and makes the woodsman and the country people, especially those in Maine, swell with pride because everything in this book is written in a very simple language. N. S. 745. BURMA SURGEON Long before NVorld War II threatened the world, Dr. Seagrave was carrying on his own war against malaria, plague and many other kinds of sickness. He started his medical mission in the north- ern Shan states of Burma with only a waste- basket full of broken down surgical instru- ments that he had salvaged from Johns Hop- kins College. When be arrived at the mission station he found nothing but native buts and shacks. But under his skillful and energetic directions the huts became modern hospitals and conditions became civilized. He trained native girls to become skilled and dependable nurses. ' Soon the war carrie nearer and nearer. The Chinese built the Burma Road and an air- plane factory was constructed near the mission station. Finally the storm began to break all over Bnrma. The Chinese army called on Doctor Scagrave for aid and even commissioned him as a major in the medical corps. Night and day the doctor performed operations and cared for the wounded amid the flame and rubble. 48 H. C. I. SCROLL When the order actually came to evacuate Burma, Dr. Seagrave joined the retreat with General Stilwell in that historic run through the dense jungle to India. C. II. '-15. MICROBE HUNTERS Paul de Kruif's Microbe Huntcrsi' is a most entertaining work, besides being educational. This fact surprised me somewhat because one hardly thinks of a chemistry or general science book as worthy of being read when relaxation and enjoyment are wanted. Names that had been just names in my chemistry book turned out to be appelations of fiesh-and-blood hu- mans who actually lived and breathed and did human things. Ehrlick smoked and drank mineral waterg Metchnikoff was constantly be- ing prevented from committing suicide by his second wifeg Bruce was an adventurous man of the outdoors besides being disobedient to his army superiors, and very often tactless. The author relates his story easily and straightfor- wardly, freely using phrases that make him seem an ordinary person, This work reflects his human personality. This scientifically cor- rect book, which might be expected to be dull and boring, really reads as easily as a novel. If a series of biographies of the same men were told in plain, cold facts the volume would be revolting to meg but as thc author has presented thc material I found a bizarre attraction here which compelled me to corn- plete my pcrsual as quickly as possible. Mr. de Kruif certainly has the slwoir faire for rc- lating facts concerning microbe hunting. .l recommend this book not only to all science students, but also to all who want to know more about the fascinating discoveries of the causes and prcventions of some of mankiud's deadliest diseases.

This year, however, we will not he ahle to comment on the various yearbooks he- canse we did not receive any exchanges last year and, due to the fact that Higgins is clos- ing earlier this spring, we cannot wait for the yearly hooks of other schools.

George Hamlin had finished his quiz and wrote at the bottom of his paper, During this examination I was unable to catch anyone looking at my paper. Further, I wish to state that my own frantic S. O.

When asked whether he had received a prize, Tewksbury answered, Not exactly, but I got horrible mention. Mr. Keith, discussing the powers of differ- ent explosives in chemistry: This is one of the most dangerous explosives of them all.

AN ADVENTURE One afternoon not so long ago two Rich Young country Hicks thought that they would like to sleep in the open for one night. Since they did not decide until 3:30 P. M., they had to Chase around to collect some food to eat for supper. This was quite a Taskterl, so they thought, because the food supply was very Small. They went to the Baker's but fas luck would have ith he was out of town for a few days. The boys felt discouraged because they eouldn't find any bread and Rantdlall the way home. In the door they met Ma who had added some Beanlsj, hot dogs, French's mus- ta1'd and Brownbread to the basket of supplies. The boys, Roh and Bert, rode West for sev- eral miles until they came to an old farm- house, where an old shabby Hillman, leaning on his Kane, hobbled over the Grass to where the boys were. Could you tell us where we are, sir? asked Bert. Ah reckon ah don't know a word you said. Alfm deaf in one ear and can't hear out the other. To be Frank with you all, ah'm not sure where ah'm at myself. Ah'm an old Guy who moved here yisterday and Ah don't know whedder Ah'm coming or whedder All,l1l goingf' The boys rode on, not looking back at this decrepit, hunchhacked man. The boys saw next a Priest and a Bishop in front of the Brown house picking up sticks. They asked them the same question as before and where they could find a nice camping spot. He took a Page formerly of an old book from his pocket. Cn this he showed the boys that they were in Bradford, also, if they crossed a near- by Marsh ancl rode for a mile on the next crossroad, they would find an excellent camp- ing ground. Hey, Bert, this is it, isn't it? Look at everything here--a shelter under these trees, a stream and a small fireplacef, Yeah, but look over there, Rob. Snow is still on the ground. And here is some wood but it is Punk. Oh, don't be absurd, the wood is O. K., and there is not a Tracetyj of snow here. That 58 H. C. -I.1.gilp-.li--111411-1-unz-uu1ggiqq....1,.1nu-., UQ! 'P WI'IICIl you see over there is a cluster of Vio- lets, laughed Bert, good-naturedly. After the boys had had supper and had caught several Fish, they returned to the shel- ter to camp for the night. They talked for some time and finally dropped off to sleep. Soon Rob sat up, startled. Great Scott, did you hear that? Did you bring your Mace with you? screamed Roh. What is there to be afraid of? There isn't anything Savage around here. What a won- derful night. It's too, too romantic, Estfeyl Brother? Y-y-y-yes, it is nice, isn't it? Good night, B-B-Bert. Pleasant dreams. The night progressed. Next a Peircefingl roar rang through the Meadferl. Then another followed by shots. Hey, Bert, wake up! What is that noise? Bert, Bert, wake up. That noise, can't you hear it? It was so near, now it's gone! Oh, don't be crazy. Probably it was Farm- er jack's son blowing a Moose Call. Or maybe his Buck is loose. No, it wasn't either. I really did hear something. Where's my Cap? Something is crawling in my earl O my Soule! What on eazth is that? Something is on my feet. Get out of here! Scram! Bert, there is something on my feet! 'iNonsense, there is nothing near you, Rob. Den't be so nervous. Go to sleep and be quiet. Bert, do you hear that? Someone is sing- ing 'Perry CBuryJ Me Not on the Lone Prairie.' I tell you, there are Roberftls here. Bert, there is something sticky on ,my toe. It feels like Parkhurst fpie crustl but how in the old scratch did it get here? Please, Brother, go to sleep, I beg of you. No doubt that man is in his Coflin now. Two hours passed and again the nervous Rob awoke. Ouch, I haven't a Friend in the world! I believe the Archer is out tonight. I just heard an arrow whiz past my ear. Am I lying on Staples? There is something sticking into mel Something Burns! Oh, I'm afraid I'm on fire! What a Dope I was to come out here! I do believe there is a Gremlin under mel Rob talked himself to sleep and when he awoke again it was eight o'clock in the morn- ing. The Robbins were singing gayly, at first Roh thought it was Boogie-Woogie. Finally both boys were awakened by the ringing blows I. SCROLL of the neighboring blackSmith. Well, Rob, let's go Hometrl. How about it? Anything to get away from this haunted place. I'll never, no never, never, never sleep outdoors again in all my life. Let me Grant you this, by George. P. S.
