The Senior Class of 1941 takes great pleasure in welcoming you to this, its Class Day exerci’res. After much scientific study and resarch on the subject, the class is now prepared to relate to you the whims, fancies, hobbies, and ambitions of its illustrious members. Even though their talents may lie in many different channels, traits of genius have been discovered. If you have been unaware of this, the different members will try to impress them upon you in today’s exercises. The class hopes you will enjov the per- formance as much as they have enjoyed preparing it for vour entertainment, and, incidentally, their own. Class History By Marie Mack One bright September morning of 1937 the illustrious but bashful class of ’41 entered the portals of Sumner High. Reins: divided into two groups, the college in Mr. Hodge’s room; and the commercial in Mr. iSaverouskis’ room, the class gave little or no trouble to its teachers as the year rolled swiftly by. At the first class meeting the officers were elected: president, Carolyn Carter; vice- president, Robert Little; secretary, Betty Potts; and treasurer, Annella Card. Many entered into sports and music, but being so bashful, didn’t attempt any big fete. As June approached, the members became better acquainted and just couldn’t wait for another year to come. Arriving back again in September the sophomores felt quite superior to the freshmen although the seniors were looking down at the sophomores. After having settled down it was found that some of the members of last year were not with us. John Clark, Carolyn Carter, Miriam Carter were among the missing while Mary Emmett and John Haggai were added to our group. This year we elected Annella Card, president; Madeline Hogan, vice-president; Walter Pawlowski, secretary; and Dorothy Kierstead, treasurer. The Student Council formed this year had for sophomore representatives Clara Colburn, Betty Potts, and Marjorie Smart. On April 28, 1939, the drama “Lnder Sus- picion” was held in the school hall. It was coached by Miss Marcia Bartlett and was well received by the audience. During this year one of the most beloved class mates, Virginia Hanney, died with pneumonia in March. Although she has not been with us these last two years, the senior class will always remember her as she attended Sumner High School. The second chapter of our four-year history had thus come to a close. Overcoming most of the bashfulness of the earlier years, the juniors started again. This year the class lost Dorothy Chaplic, Mary Emmet, Alphonse Bingle, and Charles Anderson, but gained James WTlliams and Thomas O’Connor. There were now thirty-six bright students in the class. The Student Council representatives for this year were Mason Colby, Annella Card, and Dorothy Kierstead. John Haggai was elected president; Robert Little, vice- president; Madeline Hogan, secretary; and Stewart McKay, treasurer. The biggest fete of the year was the Prom which was held in the spring. It was a great success and will always be remembered by all. This year closed with the winning of pro-merito honors at graduation by Annella Card, Mason Colby, THE ECHO 9 Dorothy Kierstead, Madeline Hogan, Shirley Howard, Stewart McKay, Walter Pawlowski, and Betty Potts. The last chapter of the illustrious career of the class of ’41 is the most memorable and most enjoyable. It was just filled with events from the beginning to the end. Officers elected in September are president, Robert Little; vice- president, Annella Card; secretary, Marie Mack; and treasurer, Madeline Hogan. The Senior Dance, which was held in October, afforded an enjoyable time for all. The Senior Drama, “Don’t Take My Penny” was presented before a large audience and was very successful as a result of the untiring efforts of the coach. Miss Kathryn Megley. One day during January the Senior Class showed its ability to cook when it took over the lunchroom for a day. No one will ever forget the delicious hot dogs that Dick Walsh toasted. The class was now only twenty-nine strong, for it had lost Betty Jennings, William Lawrence, Edward Joughin, Marjorie Smart, James Williams, and Edrie MacPherson. Dorothy Kierstead, Clara Colburn, Stewart McKay, and Walter Pawlowski represented the class in the Student Council. A style show was presented by Wm. Eilene’s Store, with the senior girls acting as models. The most important event of all the four years was the Senior Class trip to New York. A journey to Providence on a special bus was the first step. After going on board, a photographer took a picture which appeared in the Brockton Enterprise the next night. Little sleep was had by all while some were seasick for an hour or so. Arriving in New York, the class ate breakfast and began a tour of the city. It visited the Empire State building, rode in an upstairs bus, and enjoyed a shopping trip before luncheon. After luncheon Rockefeller Center was visited; here an hour or two were enjoyed. A three hour sightseeing trip brought everyone to the boat after visiting Grant’s Tomb, The Aquarium, Chinatown, Harlem, and the Bowery. An enjoyable dinner was had on the boat, after which almost everybody retired early. The same bus transported all back to Holbrook in the morning where twenty-four tired seniors and five chaperons ended a glorious trip. Graduation this year is to be a Congress on Democracy and should prove very interesting. Another change which we have made this year will be the girls’ graduating in evening gowns. With this last exercise will end, it is hoped, the four most memorable and enjoyable years of our lives. STATISTICS By Clara Colburn This Senior Class of 1941 has compiled by popular vote of the class the sta- tistics of its members. The following mosts and bests are what must, of course, be interesting to each because they are the selections of the class. Richard Walsh heads the list with six: class orator, class politician, night ow l, funniest, most popular, and most businesslike. Walter Pawlowski follows with five: class philosopher, fastest typist, quietest, most conscientious, and most bashful. Dorothy Kierstead also has earned five: class poet, class author, most original, most versatile, and has the most class spirit. Payson Jones has the honor of being considered the best dressed, the best looking, the most athletic, and the class Romeo. 10 THE ECHO Betty Potts is the most alert, the most popular, and the teachers’ pet. Lester Proverb is the woman-hater, the best singer, the worst penman, this last by unanimous ballot. Madeline Hogan and Shirley Howard tied as being the best dressed. Made- line was also chosen as the most charming, while Shirley is the most sociable and most agreeable. Annella Card gets honors as the best actress, the class coquette, and, inci- dentally, the shortest. George Hagerty and Leo Smith tied for being the best tellers of tall stories. Robert Little was chosen the most artistic and the tallest. Helen Moran is the class baby and the cutest. Single items are: Best looking Helen Lawrence Stewart McKay Clara Colburn Leonard Hooker Xaturalist Donald McKay Fastest driver John Haggai Photographer Edwin Grover Biggest fusser Charlotte Bagley Class giggler May Wallace Idealist Mason Colby The biggest procrastinators, the best sports, and those most likely to suc- ceed are, naturally, the members of this outstanding class, the Class of 1941. Most musical Dietician Biggest eater CLASS PROPHECY By Madeline Hogan Here I was in 1961 standing before the greatest scientist of the age. Monsieur Finklestein, better known to me in my high school days as Edwin Grover. I came to him seeking a great favor, that of becoming invisible just long enough to speed o’er the country and see to what end my cherished classmates had come. Willingly Monsieur Finklestein obliged, and after mixing several potions together, I was no more. I was invisible. While floating across New York, I happened to touch an air wave and heard the melodious voice of Richard Walsh, the new up-and-coming announcer for the 9-20 Club, saying that Dorothy Kierstead, the latest publicity agent for Leo Smith, the owner of the great flea circus, known as “Smithie’s Smooth Specimens” has just announced that for safety and comfort while on tours, they travel Colonial Line. Then he uttered another news flash which shocked me: Shirley Howard has been given up as dead after the balloon in which she hoped to reach Mars was last seen drifting out into the Pacific about two years ago. In passing through Chicago, I happened to glance at a headline which read thus: Alice McLaughlin, who was recently voted the World’s Best Woman THE ECHO 11 Cook is being sued by Leonard Hooker for two thousand dollars, because as Hooker explains, “She uses our products, adds some new name, and she’s won the contest. It jus’ ain’t fair.” Upon arriving at the most beautiful home in Chicago, I found there was nothing high hat about Bud Hagerty, the owner of the largest rattle factory in America, as the multi-millionaire drives to work every morning on his little, old, red scooter bike that he purchased when he was a poor little senior in Sumner High. Then my ears were pierced with the shrill HEAVE-HO of a hearty sailor’s song, and looking down upon a peaceful lake, whom did I see but our own Lester Proverb, the head man on an excursion boat, which makes two trips daily to ports unknown. Erom thence I sped to Hollywood, and there occupying the seat of director on the 1. 0. U. lot was none other than Bob Little, who was madly trying to direct Donald Duck’s new picture, entitled, “The Ducky Duke o’ Padooka.” Playing the female role in this picture opposite Donald Duck was our own great actress, Charlotte Bagley. Arriving with a bounce on the broad, cactus covered fields of Texas, I found myself on the ranch owned by that great cowboy of the plains, Heigh-Ho Silver Mahoney, who was trying to make a color-blind bull see red. My next stop was Elorida, and there I found the mad scientist, Donald McKay, trying to make the climate of Florida as cold as that of the Arctic. There are doubts as to whether he will succeed, hut time will tell. As I traveled northward, I stopped at Washington just long enough to see how Jim Jones was getting along in caring for the cherry trees. You know Jim was recently appointed by the Japanese Ambassador of good will, Thomas O’Connor, as assistant caretaker of these beautiful trees. I then headed back to New York, and upon arriving at the aquarium, whom should I find but John Haggai, who was more than occupied in massaging a slippery little seal that had sprained one of its ligaments from wiggling so much. I left him to his slippery subject and sped off to West Point where I found Mason Colby and Walter Pawlowski, the two generals, arguing heatedly over what became of Yeheudi. Next I made a stop at the Roxy Theatre where the Rockettes, those lovely dancing girls, were waltzing to the lilting accom- paniment of the class’s most talented musician, Stewart McKav. I guess manv of the boys now wish they had studied music. Coming back to Massachusetts, I was glad to find that some of my class- mates hadn’t roamed, for there in a little red schoolhouse I found Marie Mack teaching readin’, writin’, and arithmetic, and it was apparent that Pauline A lbonetty hadn’t forgotten her little tricks on how to et along with the teacher because there was Polly’s little daughter, Maribelle, handing Marie a big red apple. Holbrook was my next stop, and there in the middle of that thriving metropolis was a large neon sign reading, “Huggy’s Heatless Hairdo’s” and upon entering, I found Helen Moran giving Betty Potts, who has earned well into a million dollars on her latest book, “The Eternal Triangle,” while Betty was relating the latest gossip of the city to May Wallace, who was having a terrible time trying to stop Audrey Roberston’s little girl from pulling Betty’s hair. May, it seems, has a day nursery for kiddies whose mothers attend bridge and social functions. Upon arriving in Boston, I happened to glance at a leading newspaper and was surprised to notice that many of the main editorials had 12 THE ECHO been taken over by members of my class. Such names as these greeted mv eves: Annella Card who now writes Emily Post’s column, Dorothy Dix has given up her advice to the love-lorn to Clara Colburn, and Helen Lawrence helps out Dr. Wiggam in his column on “Let’s Explore Your Mind.” Well, at last my trip was ended, and pleased and proud of mv classmates. I returned to Monsieur Finklestein in order that 1 might return to my former self. Once more I was Madeline Hogan in person. CLASS POEM By Thomas O’Connor and Helen Lawrence Vi e are the Seniors, the best little class. That from dear old Sumner ever shall pass. We’re smart and bright and brilliant and quick. W hen we get together, we certainly click. Rut now to get on to the serious side — The name of dear Sumner just fills us with pride. It’s a wonderfid, dignified place to get learning.

All politicians smoke them Tho’ he’s too young, by far. OBITUARY By Audrey Robertson The Class of 1941 passed away quietly and peacefully in June, 1941, after a short but eventful life. Three years ago last September the class of ’41 came to life. During this year it was never expected that three years later she would depart from Sumner High School. In her second year she began to show some signs of decay, but even then, her inevitable death was not contemplated. First of the many evil habits she was to acquire was that of a faulty diet. Instead of eating her spinach and drinking her milk, she turned to candy, pickles, salted peanuts, and chewing gum. By her third year a once healthy class was showing definite signs of an approaching collapse. Rendezvous at late hours, too manv 14 THE ECHO social activities, and cramming had all taken their toll on the once young life of the class of ’41. By last September it was obvious to all that the poor old class was making her last stand. Vi hen she began to babble about what she would wear at the end, a physician was called in. W hen he gave his prescription of pink pills in the form of diplomas, she gave in entirely and began to babble incoherently about what she would do in the other world. But at last it is over. ’41 has gone, and she will be sadly missed by the faculty and underclassmen of Sumner High School. There is none of us so wise who can predict what lies ahead for ’41, hut on the day when the funeral takes place there will be many to join in the solemn wish that this is not the end, hut merely the beginning of a new life for the gallant class in that other world. CLASS WILL Vi E, the members of the Senior Class of 1941. of Sumner High School. Town of Holbrook, County of Norfolk. State of Massachusetts. L nited States of America, being uncertain as to the frail life that we are living, do, therefore, make, ordain, publish, and declare this to he our last will and testament. Item 1. To Mr. Neal we will the empty room at the end of the corridor. S ith Miss Megley’s aid, we ask that you again fill the seats with illustrious seniors, such as the class of ' 41. The scratches, initials, gum, worn spots, and loose bolts are all the work of past students who are skilled artists at the various trades indicated. V e feel sure that the coming seniors will appreciate the art on the desks, and may be able to use the art under the desk. These wads of gum, which were left in our hastv departure, may not be too stale for further use. Tho’ they were left in our haste to part from books and such, we feel that they should linger a short time any way, to designate the industrious mem- bers of the class. Mr. Neal, we also bequeath you a great deal of peace and solitude. At last “Dot” Kierstead has left these great portals, and you will not have to peek around a corner to see if she is coming, before you move. Of course, we realize that all Dot’s pestering was in the interest of the senior class, so beginning in the year of 1950, we will gladly take the responsibility of all her questions and answers. Item 2. So that Muriel Quincy will experience no difficulty in reaching school on sunny days next year, we bequeath to her Charlotte’s will-power. Charlotte is always in school, even though she is not wholly in sympathy with all the ideas on the subject of work in bookkeeping. Item 3. To the junior class we bequeath the indefatigable power of the seniors to complete the task which has been started. Although it cost us a good deal of time, energy, and thought, they finally erased the “U’s” from their cards. Item 4. To Anna Smith we bequeath the right to keep the office in order. Item 5. To the girls in the west-end, Audrey leaves the advice; If you get out on the sidewalk just after the train at 7:45 has left, you will not have to walk. We realize that the girls on the west side of town have a long walk, and that all rides are appreciated. Miss Knutson’s schedule is regular and her kindness unlimited. THE ECHO 15 Item 6. As Dick Walsh will have no further use for his oratory powers, we bequeath them to Allan Jones. He will use them to best advantage. Item 7. To George Carter we leave the advice: “When driving your car, go slowly.” John Haggai says that the slowest way home is the safest. Item 8. “Mai” Hogan, a quiet, but fun-loving member of the class of ’41 would like to bestow her best wishes on Stacia Czapla, who seems to be following in “Mai’s” footsteps. Item 9. To Lorrell Keller, who has a very amusing giggle, we bequeath May Wallace’s laughter. Item IG. To Miss Megley, we cannot bequeath peace and solicitude as the junior class (or coming seniors) are much too peppy and unmanageable. We warn you. Miss Megley, you’ll age ten years after your first month with them. We know! They’ve followed us up from the first grade, and they’ve caused us no end of worry and trouble, even though we have tried our best to set them a good example to follow. Item 11. To “Ray” Clooney we bequeath “Jim” Jones’s will-power. We might bequeath you some of his good looks, too, but by a unanimous vote it was decided you had enough of your own. We attest this to be a true copy of the last will and final testament of the Senior Class of 1941, Sumner High School, Holbrook, Massachusetts, this 11th day of June in the year of our Lord, One Thousand Nine Hundred and Forty-one. iSigJied) The Class of 1941 Witnesses: Presidents of Freshman, Sophomore, and Junior Classes. THE TYPING TRIUMPHANT The third annual High School Typewriting Contest, sponsored by the Fisher Business School, of Boston, was held recently with Somerville, Everett, Weston, Malden, Wilmington, Reading, Cohasset, Melrose, Scituate, Stoneham, Water- town, Weymouth, and Holbrook High School seniors competing for various awards. During the first week of May a test was given to the seniors, the two highest scorers being Walter Pawlowski and Betty Potts. The individual awards were gold and silver keys. On May 24, Walter, the gold key winner competed for the school trophy, and Betty, the winner of the silver key, entered as an alternate. A fifteen-minute test was given to the contestants; a ten-minute test to alternates. Five-minute and one-minute accuracy tests were also given to both. Walter was the only gold-key winner to pass the fifteen-minute test, typing at the rate of 78 words a minute. He received the school trophy which is kept by Sumner for a year. The school winning the cup for three successive years retains it permanently. The individual award was a smaller cup. Although not a winner in the silver key contest, Betty compared favorably typing 62 words a minute. Sumner should be proud of its typists and type- writing department. 16 THE ECHO First Row: A.

SENIOR DRAMA Don ' t Take My Penny, a hilarious comedy coached by Miss Kathryn Megley of the faculty, was presented by the Senior Class December 19, 1940. Penny, a peppy girl with Hollywood desires, was characterized by Made- line Hogan. Kerry and Greg, fellows wishing to keep her from going, brought down the house with their pranks. John Haggai and Mason Colby provided this humor. Robert Little exhibited his French accent in his part as Monsieur Henri, a French designer. The sub plot furnished tenderer scenes with a farm loving boy, Stewart McKay, and the pretended maid, Annella Card. Marie Mack, Payson Jones, Donald McKay, Helen Lawrence, Pauline Albonetty, Shirley Howard, Clara Colburn, Richard Walsh, May Wallace, and Dorothy Kierstead also helped make this performance a great success. SENIOR DANCE The Senior Dance was held Thursday, October 24, 1940, in the school hall. A merry time was had by all in the specialty dances and the regular dances to the music of Joe Ross’s Orchestra. The motif carried out in decorating was autumn and was very attractive. Our chaperons of the evening were members of the faculty of the high school. This dance proved to be a success both finan- cially and socially. THE ECHO 17 NEW YORK TRIP The Senior Class of Sumner High School left the building at six o’clock l)y bus for Providence, R. I,, on the evening of April 21. There they hoarded the S. S. COMET bound for New York, and after a rather eventful, exciting evening arose refreshed in anticipation of a day’s sightseeing trip in the “Big City.” Breakfast in an Automat was an experience in itself. Then followed Fifth Avenue and the Empire State Building. From the top of the Empire State were seen various points of interest from the Battery to Central Park. Telegrams and telephone calls were made from the tower. A short shopping trip for souvenirs preceded a ride upstairs in a “rubberneck” bus along Fifth Avenue through the city to Riverside Drive. Some very interesting snapshots were taken on our way. A subway train brought all back to Grand Central Station and the New York Airlines Terminal. Lunchtime found the group at a res- taurant for a short while; then came Radio City with its exhibits in the Hall of Mechanical Devices and Photography. The final event of the day was a three-hour sightseeing ride. This was immensely interesting. Places of interest were Flatiron Building, Little Church around the Corner, The Bowery, China- town, Harlem, Riverside Drive, Grant’s Tomb, Aquariaum, homes of famous Americans, Woolworth Building, Chrysler Building, Wall Street, famous stores, Hotel St. Regis, Riverside Church, Palisades, penthouses, the Normandie, and the Swedish liner Kungsholm. In the aquarium an amusing sight was the feeding of the sea lions and the penguins. Dinner was served on board boat; this was followed by a general rush to see the skyline from the deck. Slightlv tired, the majority of the crowd went to bed early, giving our chaperons little trouble. Early in the morning the bus was waiting to bring the happy group home. The gracious chaperons. Miss Kathryn Megley, Miss Elna Knutson, Miss Miram West, Mr. Vincent Naverouskis, and Mr. William Sands proved as fun-loving and excited as the seniors. This is the first time in the history of Sumner High that a senior class has gone to New York, and every Senior will admit that no other trip could ever have been so enjoyable. BRIDGE AND WHIST PARTY To Help Finance the New York Trip The Senior Class held a successful Bridge and Whist Party in the High School Hall cn April 15. Prizes for the best bridge and the best whist players were awarded; there was also a prize for the person who held the lucky ticket taken at the door and one for the person who selected the right number. Enough money was materialized to furnish transportation for the Senior Class to and from Providence. 18 THE ECHO THE FACULTY W OULD you know Sumner ' s teachers? There is the principal.

JUNIOR PROM The Junior Class of Sumner High School held its annual Prom on May 23. The hall was attractively decorated, with the class colors, green and silver. The decorating committee, supervised by Miss Doris Rowell, comprised Jean Hollis, Betty Seeliger, Marjorie Schutt, Barbara Woodman, and Catherine Mosesso. Music was enjoved by the “Esquires.” During intermission refresh- ments were sold by the committee in charge, who were Muriel Quincy and Allan Jones. The grand march was led by Allan Jones and Marjorie Smart followed by Shirley Cook and Chester Ignatowitz. Allan and Shirley are president and vice-president respectively. The Prom was a great success both financially and socially.

While the class lost no fewer than four, it gained Marjorie Smart, James Williams, and Allan Jones, who spent last year at Williston Academy. With Allan Jones as chairman, assisted by a committee of Elaine Alegley, Catherine Mosseso, Beverly Higgins, and Barbara Woodman, the Junior Class held a most successful lunchroom day. Tonic, cake, frankforts, and ice cream were served and were well received by the students. Miss Damon, as well as the mothers of the students, rendered valuable assistance. The class rings selected this year are of plain gold and black onyx. Thev have the Sumner “S” in the center and the graduation year of 1942 on the sides. 20 THE ECHO First Roiv: H. Mackie. E.

Herbert DeMars, Lorena eager, Baibara Gagnon, and Fred Tevlin left school. Barbara went because her family moved to Marlboro, Tevlin had a serious operation and was unable to continue, while DeMars and Lorena have discontinued their educational advantage. The class gained one new member, Phyllis Parry, who came from Plymouth. The outstanding activities of the year were the play, “By Candlelight,” and the Sophomore dance held February 7. Seven Sophomore girls and five boys were on the basketball teams and four girls on the Echo Staff. Next year will see a full-fledged Junior Class preparing to become digni- fied seniors the following year. THE ECHO 21 Sophomore Play First Row: E. Card, H. Macintosh, A. Mann, .M. Lyons.

SOPHOMORE DRAMA BY CANDLELIGHT The Sophomore Class presented “By Candlelight”, which was coached hy Miss Marcia Bartlett of the faculty, on March 28. It was an amusing story about a group of elderly ladies in a home for women, with their petty jealousies and funny incidents. The main character, a former actress getting herself fitted for the stage, was portrayed by Elizabeth Card. The other women at the house were Alma Mann, Helen McIntosh, Patricia Donovan, Madeline Lyons, Barbara Simmons, and Betty Putt; all played their part well. The play, very well done, was enjoyed by a large audience. SOPHOMORE DANCE The sophomore class sponsored a very successful record hop on February 7, 1941. An interesting variation of dances had been arranged by Janet Bolles, Paul Mitchell, John Thayer, Audrey Smart, Lois Tilton, and Eleanor Finne- gan of the dance committee. It was fun for everyone. 22 THE ECHO Second Row: . Keating, L. Smith, M. Duggan, B. Benn, V. .MacDonnell, M. Polisson, B. Hayden, G. Hagerty, R. Card, A. Andrews, C. Haskins, 11. Kayian, E. Ball. R.

FRESHMAN CLASS Preside III I ice-Presldeut Secretary Treasurer Gloria Hagf:rty Ramona Card Alice Andrew Betty Hayden This year’s fresliinaii class lias a membership of sixty-eighl, which is large for Simmer. Twenty came from Brookville, forty-eight from Holbrook. Hence it had to he made into three divisions. The college class was supervised by Miss Knutson, the two commercial classes by Mr. Hodge and Mr. Naverouskis. These freshmen boys and girls always have been willing to cooperate iti all of the school activities. They have entered the gym, the basketball squad, the glee club, and the photography club. Marjorie Morgan was elected class treasurer, hut because of a severe acci- dent that she had, Marjorie was compelled to miss school this year so Betty Hayden was selected to take her place. The year closes for the Class of 1944 with a membership of 69 and with pleasant thoughts of being next year’s sophomores.

CLUBS STUDENT COUNCIL For its third ear the Student Council was organized to help finance sports and help in the management of school affairs. The membership was as follows: four seniors, three juniors, one sophomore, and one freshman. The officers elected were president, Dorothy Kierstead; secretary, Elaine Megley; treasurer, Clara Colburn. The representatives from the various clubs were added, and this year Mr. F. Eldred Hodge became a faculty advicer. Miss Elna Knutson and Mr. Garland Neal continued as faculty advisers. Class elections were conducted by the Council. A new activity of the group this past year was that of various members visiting other schools to secure new ideas and plans. Two students went to each school, and the schools that were visited were Kingston High, Hanover High, and Norwell High. At the fall conference of the South- eastern Division of Massachusetts Student Councils held at Plymouth High School, Miss Elna Knutson, Dorothy Kierstead, Ruth Andrew, Clara Colburn, Elaine Megley, Stewart McKay, and alter Pawlowski represented Sumner. The Student Council sponsored various activities and awarded an Honor Room Banner to the best and neatest room in the high school. THE ECHO 29 First Row: B. Simmons, M. Schiitt. P. Donovan. E.

From the various league meetings which the editors of the different departments attended, interesting reports were brought back. For its second year the Snoops and Scoops was published and supported by the student body. Each issue of this school paper was dedicated to a special group or class as well as every issue featuring special attractions. The proceeds Irom the paper went toward the publishing of the vear book. This year, the Sadie Hawkins Dance and Association Dance were combined and held on May 2. Advertisements were obtained from the business men and merchants of the town for the school year book. The members of the Staff did this work and entered into the work of publishing the year book very well. It is evident that the Echo Staff had an active and successful vear. The average subscription to Snoops and Scoops this year was 140 which is 70% of the enrollment in school. 30 THE ECHO SMLSP Onp: who does nol work on a school publication does not realize the work and nioney required to make a single puhlieation. Eaeh school in the count ry has problems when they begin to compile their puhlieation. To overcome all the mistakes and problems which appear in Sumner’s puhlieation, the Echo Staff has joined the Southeastern Massachusetts League of School Publications. This league meets four times a year at different high schools. It is a well organized league and has been established for the past twenty years. Delegates from each school attend the meetings, take part in different conferences, and bring hack useful material to their staffs. For instance at a certain meeting there would he literary, financial, art, and executive conferences. Those delegates who are affiliated with the different departments on the publi- cations staffs attend the appropriate conferences. A supper and business meeting is held, following the conferences. In the evening the entertaining school furnishes enjoyable programs. Meetings during the past year have been held at Milton, Ahington, Attle- boro, and Duxbury. Each school in the league has its publications classed, and each year a professional judge is secured to grade the work. Awards are jnade to schools publishing the best year book, the best newspaper, and the best magazine in both A and B classes. A school to be in the A class must have a student body of more than 500. All under 500 are classed as B. The Echo Staff is one of the most active high schools in the league and will undoubtedly always be a member. SADIE HAWKINS ' DANCE The Echo Staff and the Association sponsored a Sadie Hawkins’ dance on May 2. The hall was cleverly decorated with brown and green streamers and leaves, and “Little Abner” comic strips along the walls. At the conclusion of the grand march, led by Annella Card and Arnold Soule, prizes were given to Marie Mack and Richard Walsh for the most humorous costumes. Many novelty dances led by Richard Walsh were enjoyed throughout the evening, to the music of an excellent orchestra. One feature of the evening was the prize waltz won by Marjorie Smart and Allan Jones, after some fifteen or twenty couples had been eliminated. Miss Marcia Bartlett, Miss Kathryn Megley, Mr. F. Eldred Hodge, and Mr. Garland Neal of the faculty were present, as well as members of the school committee and the Parent Teachers’ Association. How dear to my heart are the scenes of my school days When in parting I view them once more ere we go. The portals, the classrooms, the halls, and the stairways, The scenes which in four years we’ve all come to know. THE ECHO 31 First Row: C. Cote. M. Eaton, J. Leonard, M.

These girls having worked faithfully all year took part in the Spring Concert, April 17. singing Jeanie with the Light Brown Hair ' ’ and ”Come M here My Love Lies Dreaming.” At the Mayflower Association Spring Concert at orwood on Mav 24, a concert was enjoyed by all the members. At graduation, as usual, the girls helped to make the program more interesting by furnishing some very delightful music. Xow that the school year is at its close the club will conclude its activities by having a beach picnic. • 5 - «• Dear Sumner. I am grateful And want the world to see. It was the work and not the pull That graduated me. 32 THE ECHO Seated: C. Bagiev, A. McLaughlin, A. Card, C. Colburn. Standing: M. Creighton. Mis Damon. Supervisor, M. Eaton. LUNCHROOM NEWS d ' HAT cheery group which keeps the stomachs of Sumner High satisfied known as the “lunchroom crew ' ’ has served ably and well. Miss Anna Damon, the veiA capable supervisor, kept things running smoothly even through added responsibility when extra food was added the latter part of the year. Surely almost everyone appreciated the unselfish work done by Miss Damon, Charlotte Bagiev, Clara Colburn, Alice McLaughlin. Annella Card, Mary Eaton, and Marion Creighton. My Barn Cold, winter winds may howl outside. My barn is snug and warm. The horses nose their fragrant hay, Ihimindful of the storm. 1 draw their woolen blankets close And straighten Old Joe’s mane — 1 pat each wrinkled velvet nose riiat nuzzles golden grain. Deep beds of straw so clean and bright 1 shake in every stall. For just beyond the tight-shut door Tlie drifting snowflakes fall. Then standing in the mellow dusk. Made by my lantern glow, I pause to pray for faithful beasts I nsheltered in the snow. Anonymous THE ECHO 33 THE ASSOCIATION This year the association, which has been in existence ten years, had a much smaller membership than previously. Each member of the association pays ten cents a week for thirty-two weeks, and in return has his class dues paid; is admitted to many dances, movies, and basketball games; and receives a year book. He receives in value much more than he invests. It seems as if many more should take advantage of this liberal offering. PHYSICS CLASS TRIP This year the Physics Class made but one excursion. This was to the Ford plant in Somerville. It’s not sure just exactly how much scientific knowledge the class gained, but they had a good time. Those who went were Dorothy Kierstead, Mason Colby, Annella Card, Richard Croft, Leonard Hooker, Stewart McKay, Leo Smith, Dean Hooker, and faculty member, Mr. F. Eldred Hodge. ASSEMBLIES A VARIETY of assemblies were presented at Sumner during the past year. As usual, there were many movies representing all phases of life and sports. The different classes also presented various talent assemblies which brought forth many laughs and were enjoyed immensely. The W.P.A. Band of Brockton, under the direction of Arthur Kendrew, presented an assembly of musical numbers. Mr. John E. Hines, a play actor and dramatic entertainer, entertained us with reviews and highlight scenes from the play entitled “Life with Father” by Clarence Day. Mr. Helms presented an amusing assembly on instrumental impersonations. Holiday assemblies were conducted with appropriate exercises and speakers. An especially good assembly was the Quiz Program in which the class presidents and four members of the audience took part. Taking all the assemblies into consideration, it can easily be said that they were enjoyed by everyone and went off with great success. PHOTOGRAPHY CLUB The Photography Club was started in October with seven members on the roll. The members are as follows: James Budd, president; Clair Cote, secretary; Jean Ellis, Robert Keller, Donald Smith, Allan Higgins, and Paul O’Brien. During the year the club has learned to develop film, print and enlarge pictures, and to color photographs. The club managed the lunchroom and held a record hop in order to purchase an enlarger for the club. All the members wish to express their appreciation to Mr. Hodge, the faculty adviser. DRIVING COURSE A MODERN course in automobile driving was introduced in Sumner High School this year. Mr. F. Eldred Hodge instructed the juniors and seniors during the extra period on Wednesday. Proving fun for the members, this course included study of the parts of the car, techniques in driving, state motor vehicle laws, and information about handling cars. 34 THE ECHO First Rou : A.

The poor team this year was because of the inexperience of most of the players. Only a few veterans were on hand. Clara Colburn, graduating senior, was the leading scorer this year with 35 points. Lena Smith, a freshman, followed with 19 points, and Pauline Albonetty, a senior who turned forward at the end of the year, placed third with 17 points. A large crew of players in the freshman and sophomore classes were on the team this year. Prosperity of the girls ' basketball club is anticipated during the next few years. Dear Sumner, now the time i here. e leave to go our ways. Our task in life draws very near. To you we owe much praise. The knowledge we received from you Each hour and day in class ill help us in the work we do And help our tasks to pass. THE ECHO 35 First Row: E. Paul, R. alsh, Captain P. Jones, A. Jones, .

BOYS ' BASKETBALL The Sumner boys’ basketball club had a fairly successful season this year winning three out of eleven games. Most of the games played were all close. This year’s team was composed of seven veterans, Capt. Jones, Buster Paul, Charles Mann, Frank Moran, Mgr. Walsh, Walter Donovan, and George Hagerty. There were also a large delegation of freshmen and sophomores in the lineup. During the season, Sumner scored a total of 247 points while their oppo- nents scored 324. The leading scorer was Capt. Jones, making 69 points, followed hv Buster Paul, Charles Mann, Allan Jones, Frank Moran, and Dick W alsh. This year Capt. Jones, George Hagerty, and Dick Walsh will be graduated. A prosperous season is expected next year, because there are plenty of talented players coming up. 36 THE ECHO Seated: A. Jones, R. Jennings, F. McGanghey, J. Jones, allace, G. Carter, F. Moran.

BASEBALL The High School baseball cli’h was organized this spring by Coach John P. W alsh, of the faculty, A large group of candidates responded to the first few practices, from which Coach alsh selected his club. eterans who returned for action again this season were “Jim” Jones. W alter Donovan, “Bill” W illiamson, “Buster” Paul, and “Bob” Little. Others who have seen action this year are Windsor Hollis, Frank McGanghey, John ascovitch, “Ray” Clooney, Lawrence McGanghey, “Lefty” Jones, George Carter, “Russ” Chandler, Walter Wallace, “Bill” Bagley, Weaker Jennings, and “Bill” Malcolm. The club was composed of a snappy defensive infield and outfield. Pitching was rather weak and a large staff was necessary. A large choice of catchers remained on the team throughout the season. Hitting ability was good, with “Bill” Williamson’s power drive reinforcement. The club should end up with a fairly good season. THE ECHO 37 Firsi Row: P, O’Brien, T. Haggai, D. Hanney, J. Haggai.

GYM EXHIBITION The annual gym exhibition directed by Principal Garland Neal was held in the school auditorium on the evening of May 9, 1941. The exhibition this year included drill work by junior high school girls and apparatus work by the junior high and high school boys’ gym squads. John Haggai placed first on the high school squad and was awarded a beautiful trophy. A gold medal was awarded to Donald Hanney for placing second, and a silver medal was awarded to Theodore Haggai for placing third. The freshman award was won by Hugh MacDonald. In the junior high, Charles Richardson placed first; Robert White, second; and Walter Jennings, third. Medals were awarded to each of these boys. At the present time there is some fine material for a gym team; hence it is expected that one of the best exhibitions will be sponsored next year. 38 THE ECHO SUMNER ' S SPORTING SCROLL K have here a scroll of honor upon which this depaiiinent of the Echo has seen fit to inscribe the names of those meinhers of the Sumner High School who have achieved outstanding records in certain athletic and sporting fields. Perhaps certain of these individuals have thought their accomplishments were passed by unnoticed, but the Echo sees all and believes that recognition and honor should go where it is due, so with sincere admiration we print the names of those whom we feel to he masters of the following athletic arts: Sprinting: For his dail) record hreaking sprints from the lueakfast table to school, we honor Thomas O Connor. Even though he sometimes crossed the finish line a little short of par. his efforts deserve our sincere admiration. Guarding: The palm here goes to William Clifford for effectively keeping a determined surge of competitors away from tlie goal of his affections. Skating: In this field honors are divided between Muriel Quincy and IxiCHARD Croft for their successful trip over the perilous thin ice of Miss Marcia Partlett’s French class. Broken Field Running: A bow to Joseph Fitzpatrick who always man- aged to he the first one out at quarter of two. Navigation: No question here. Annella Card gets the award for the effortless manner in whicli she has sailed through all her subjects here at Sumner High School. Cross Country Work: Helen Moran deserves the credit in this field for all the ground she has covered on her trips back and forth to a popcorn stand in Randolph square. W RESTLING: A cheer for Edwin Grover for the many times he has wrestled with math problems and emerged the winner. Oh, well, maybe he didn’t always come out on top, but he gets a cheer anyway. Tennis: Laurels to Marie Mack. Maybe she’ll never win at WTmbledon, I ut she can always be counted on to keep the score at “Love all.” Pitching: There’s no competition for Richard Walsh and the Jones brothers whose Hair for pitching woo should earn them a place in one of the big leagues. Sparring: No need to tell you that the record in this event goes to Payson Jones for his tricky footwork on the dance floor. Swimming: We’ve never seen her swim and maybe she can’t but Clara Colburn is tops with us in this field. WEST TREE SERVICE, INC.
