They were standing cn a pedestal. They were Fresh- men! Senior, juniors, and sophomores just knocked them about like so many little dwarfs, and those cruel teachers seemed to think they had nothing to do but work, work, work. Naturally, they learned all the tactics and techniques of high school from those professionals who also had gone through the same torture. Mr. Hodge put up with the eighteen college students while Mr. Nevins tamed down the twenty-seven commercial pupils. The only excitement during the year was being on the outside looking in on the Junior Prom, Senior Play, and other main events. Everyone said, “Wait until we’re up there. We’ll outdo them all.” Their first experience in politics was the election of class officers : Richard Proverb, president; Marion Chaplic, vice-president, Eileen Mangott, secretary; Therese Mack, treasurer; Russell Colby and Geraldine Clifford, Student Council representatives. June soon rolled around, and the summer vacation came. Next year they would be sophomores ! So sophomores they were in September 1942. They came in with the idea that this year they would be the cream of the crop, but their upperclassmen still said, “Not yet !” This year they gained three new classmates: Rita Audette, Ann Berg, and George DeYoung; however, the loss of Elizabeth Reid, Jane Doble, Francis Thomas, Walter Grant, Richard Proverb, John Waldo, Marion Chaplic, and Donald DeWolf made their class much smaller. Officers this year were Thomas Veale, president; Robert Bettle, vice-president; Madeline Johnson, secretary, and Therese Mack, treasurer. Russell Colby and Geraldine Clifford were still representing them in the Student Council. The Sophomore assembly was the most stupendous assembly of the year. Yes — they were starting to blossom out. Many of them attended the Junior Prom, but they still said, “You haven’t seen any- thing yet!” Summer came in, and they were off to a carefree vacation. Juniors! They couldn’t believe it. At last they were upperclass- men. The ball started rolling with the election of officers in Septem- ber with Ruth Lucas as president, Barbara Hogan as vice-president, Eileen Mangott as secretary, and Madeline Johnson as treasurer. Student Council members were Geraldine Clifford, Thomas Veale, Charlotte Dyer, and Russell Colby. The class was now even smaller with the loss of Lillian Sanfillipo, Joyce Colburn, Ann Berg, Rita Audette, Irving Swenson, Horace Upham, Malcolm MacDonald, and Elmer Goodnow. Furthermore, Charles Richardson and Leslie Chandler had entered the U. S. Navy. It was a small class, but a superb one, united under the leadership of Miss Anna Damon. A musical assembly was held, and according to THE ECHO 11 all reports it was the best of the year. During the magazine drive it was the Juniors who led the school, and in recognition of their hard work and conscientiousness, a beautiful silk flag was awarded to the class. The wonderful dream of their freshman year now came true — the Junior Prom. It was held on May 5. The “Rhythm Majors” fur- nished the music, and the decorations were of a nautical design. All their eager anticipation had become realization — their first grown-up affair, their Junior Prom. Before they knew it, all was over, but no one would ever forget this most wonderful of wonderful affairs. Laughing through the rest of the year, they soon found it time to help the Seniors with their graduation. They did a grand job. Bid- ding farewell to the Seniors, they were glowing in the fact that next year they would be the priveleged characters. September, 1944. Feeling no different and looking no different — still, they were Seniors. They had all made it, and now they were to spend their last year together. William Martin from Baltimore, Mary- land, joined the class early in the year and soon became one of the crowd. It being their busiest year, they settled right down to business by electing class officers: Arthur Winkley, president; Therese Mack, vice-president; Barbara Hogan, secretary; Madeline Johnson, treas- urer; and Student Council representatives, Geraldine Clifford, Claire Weatherby, Charlotte Dyer, Thomas Veale, and Josephine Pepper. The first event was the memorable Senior Dance. This was quite the affair, and, as all know, the most eventful in the history of Sumner. To raise money for the trip to New York, a record hop was held, also a Sadie Hawkins’ dance. Both were very successful, the latter being quite informal. For three years they had sat in the audiences at Senior Dramas, but now it was their turn to be Sarah Bernhardts. As usual they made a name for themselves. “Miss Jimmy” was the most talked about pro- duction of the year. After many controversial class meetings, caps and gowns for graduation were decided upon. It was also decided to forego the Senior Reception. Now came the reward for their four hard years of service — the New York trip. Twenty-one members of the class and three chaperons spent three busy days during the April vacation touring the high spots of the big city. Then back to school to prepare for graduation and other activities of their Senior year. They are now ready to graduate, ready to leave all these happy memories behind them. Unable to enjoy these happy times, but with the class in spirit, are Richard Davis, George DeYoung, Russell Colby and Russell Bishop, of the United States Coast Guard, and Charles Grover, of the United States Navy. 12 THE ECHO CLASS WILL By Madeline Johnson We. the members of the Senior Class of 1945, of Sumner High School. Town of Holbrook, County of Norfolk, State of Massachusetts, United States of America, being uncertain as to the frail life that we are living, do, therefore, make, ordain, publish, and declare this to be our last will and testament. Item 1. To our principal, Mr. Neal, we cheerfully leave all our past ranks and records to entertain him during his leisure hours. Item 2. To Miss Megley we leave all the gum that we deposited in her wastebasket and the sincere hope that her classes in the future will observe her morning period of silence. Item 3. The commercial seniors leave to Miss McCarthy the pleasure of having a class that speaks up. Item 4. We leave to the teachers of Sumner High as a body our fondest memories and the hopes that all the following classes will be as ambitious and helpful as we were. Item 5. To the Junior Class we bequeath the space on the front blackboard in Room 9 where their names will be written for tardiness, excuses, and make-up slips. Item 6. To the sophomores we leave our silence in classes. Item 7. To the incoming Freshman Class we leave four long hard years of work and the books we have studied so studiously. May they profit by them as we have. Item 8. We leave to the janitors an accumulation of black marks on the floors throughout the building, especially the gym. Item 9. To the first year history class we leave all our ability to give ten-minute reports. Item 10. The senior boys leave to future graduating classes the hope that there will be a reasonable number of boys to be graduated. Item 11. To all undergraduates Arthur Winkley leaves his vo- cabulary, for a student is loved if he can speak more than four-lettered words. Item 12. Josephine Pepper leaves to any student who takes sewing her pleasure and ability in taking out stitches rather than putting them in. Item 13. John Toomey and Robert Bettle leave to anyone who might take the pre-induction course in Brockton the privilege of leaving school at 11 :25. Item 14. To some lucky undergraduates, the delicious dinners and fine entertainment that the Rotary Club of Randolph and Hol- brook this year so generously gave Robert White, Thomas Veale, Robert Bettle, and Arthur Winkley. We attest this to be a true copy of the last will and final testament of the Senior Class of 1945, Sumner High School, Holbrook, Massa- chusetts, this eighth day of June in the year of our Lord One Thou- sand Nine Hundred and Forty-five. TTT ( Signed ) The Class of 1945 Witnesses: Presidents of Junior Class, Sophomore Class, Freshman Class. THE ECHO 13 CLASS STATISTICS By Robert White The Class of 1945, in order that the outstanding traits of its mem- bers may long be remembered, has chosen by popular vote what appears to be a remarkable record. There is always one who is thought of as the most likely to suc- ceed. This choice went to Geraldine Clifford. Geraldine also proved to be the most studious and the most ambitious girl, and was tied with Charlotte Dyer as the class idealist. Thomas Veale was voted the most ambitious and the most scientific boy, and also the Voice. Madeline Johnson and Arthur Winkley were elected the best dressed girl and boy. Arthur also received the most votes for the most conscientious, the most bashful, and the most charming boy, and, incidentally, the pin-up boy. He was unanimously chosen the best actor. Barbara Hogan received the honor of being the most charm- ing girl and was tied with John Toomey as the most original senior. Russell Bishop, now of the United States Coast Guard, was chosen the best looking boy, the best dancer, and the class Romeo. Jean Seeliger was the unanimous choice for the best looking girl, and also carried away the honor of being the pin-up girl and the best girl dancer. Charlotte Dyer was selected the most business-like and the man-hater. Robert White was classified as the class orator, the most athletic boy, and the woman hater. The distinction of being the class arguer, the one with the most class spirit, and the most sociable girl went to Josephine Pepper, while Walter Jennings proved to be the most sociable boy. Therese Mack was the best actress, the most popular girl, and was tied with Richard Davis, of the United States Coast Guard, as the wittiest. Richard was also the most popular boy. Russell Colby, a third member of the United States Coast Guard, stole the honor of the night owl, the teachers’ pet, and tied with Robert Beetle as the procrastinator. Charles Grover, United States Navy, was voted the class artist, the class Hercules, and the most versatile. A few individual honors were taken by the following: Dorothy Robertson, the nosiest; Barbara Ford, the cutest girl; Martha Neal, the most athletic girl ; Shirley Malcolm, the teller of tall tales ; Mary McLaughlin, the class pessimist; Dolores Kingsley, the optimist; Ruth Smith, the quietest ; Eileen Mangott, the class flirt ; George De- Young, the class tease and comedian; and Bill Martin, the one with the swankiest car. As proof that the class of 1945 is not without talent, we have Martha Neal with her ballet dancing, Geraldine Clifford at the piano, Eileen Mangott with the violin, Thomas Veale and Shirley Malcolm singing, and Charles Grover and Barbara Hogan, artists. These seniors of Sumner High School, graduates of 1945, surely are a great class. 14 THE ECHO CLASS GIFTS By Dolores Kingsley When you receive a gift today, Don’t feel bad at what we say. It’s just to remember your old friends by. All’s fun today at Sumner High. Robert Bettle To Bobbie we give this poster To pin upon his wall. It’s about a game at Sumner When he was cheered by all.

If Colby were here, we’d give him a clock — He was often late, you know. To Davis and Bishop, our good- looking boys, A doll or two would go. Grover would get a box of paints To draw a picture or two, While DeYoung, who was always so happy, Would get this flower of blue. But Bishop, Colby, Davis, DeYoung, and Grover, too, In the Coast Guard and the Navy Uphold our honor true. 16 THE ECHO CLASS PROPHECY By Barbara Ford It is the year of our Lord, 1964. The town of Holbrook has turned out to welcome home her favorite son. Who would have thought nine- teen years ago that Thomas Veale would some day be campaigning for the Presidency? The great man himself is expected to arrive any minute from his trip to Russia where he has been studying social conditions. The airport is crowded with old friends and well-wishers. The entire class of 1945 is expected, hoping for a chance to shake his hand. As a columnist for the Holbrook Times, I am covering his visit. And, by the way, Madeline Johnson is the treasurer of this publica- tion, spending hours searching for an unaccounted dime as she did for the class of 1945. There’s Eileen Mangott, Greater of that famous column, “Minnie the Gossip,” bustling around interviewing celebrities. She seems to see someone of great interest, for she certainly is pushing her way through the crowd. Oh, it’s Bob White, manager of the St. Louis Cardinals, and isn’t that “Butch” Winkley? He’s the idol of the Bobby Socks brigade since he played those splendid baseball games last season. Having duly collected all the gossip she could from these two famous figures. Eileen moves on into the centre of the crowd where two talented members of the class are awaiting Veale’s arrival. They are “Ged” Clifford, the famous concert pianist and instructor of sci- ence at Wellesley College, and Shirley Malcolm, who has been signed to do the lead in “Carmen.” Suddenly with a hum of the motors the crowd cheers and waves as the plane circles in for a landing. The crowd rushes forward to the edge of the field, and Barbara Hogan steps forward to present the distinguished visitor with a key to the city. She looks lovely in one of her own creations. She designs for the dress shop that Ruth Lucas has opened on the corner of Norfolk Avenue and Main Street, formerly Franklin Street. As the plane slows up and comes to a halt, we recognize that old familiar smile of George DeYoung. He is yelling directions out the window of the plane. He has been flying since the close of the war, for there is now no Coast Guard Reserve. Russell Colby has done like- wise, and although he is usually with George on all his flights, he is missing because he is flying Senator Bettle to a special meeting in Washington. Having downed the plane in a professional manner, George brings it to a stop, the door opens, and out steps the charming Miss Dorothy Robertson, who has been the stewardess since she left the employment of Therese Mack at the exclusive beauty salon on the corner of Snell Parkway and Main Street. It’s in the Bishop Building. It seems Rus- sell Bishop went into the engineering feat of building sky scrapers. THE ECHO 17 You know that is what Dick Davis is doing. Between the two of them, they are making Holbrook into a metropolis of tall buildings. Dick wanted to stay in the Coast Guard, but he was more or less influ- enced by Claire Weatherby, who is a secretary to a Supreme Court Judge. The great moment has arrived. Out steps the man of the hour, Mr. Veale, and at his side, Charlotte Dyer. Charlotte is his secretary and accompanies him on all his tours. She still has that air of dignity about her and always is prepared to take shorthand at a moment’s notice. When Mr. Veale finally makes his way through the excited crowd, he hops into a taxi for refuge, and who appears as the taxi driver but Bill Martin. He is still trying to find a car as good as that first one. The next stop is in front of the Bishop Building where Miss Dyer has arranged for Mr. Veale to stop while he is in town. The desk clerk is Dolores Kingsley, who makes an excellent receptionist with her cheerful conversation and charming personality. After finishing his presidential candidate’s speech, which was followed by thunderous applause, Mr. Veale is taken to the floor show at the dance hall in the Bishop Building. Martha Neal is there on a two weeks’ dancing engagement. Looking about, we see a number of other noted personalities. There’s Jean Seeliger, who has just com- pleted a film, “Heavenly Heartbreak.” You shouldn’t miss it. And there’s Charles Grover, now employed at the biggest night spot in town sketching pictures of the famous people who visit there. We see John Toomey, who has become a humorous author, and doing well too. The picture wouldn’t be complete, however, if we omitted seeing Ruth Smith, the world-known dietitian. There is not much time left, but Mr. Veale decides he must look over the old home town before he continues on his way across the continent. As we stroll down Main Street, with its lights ablaze, we come upon Walter Jennings, who has received his share of fame from the invention of the “Rocketcopter.” Having renewed an old acquaintance, Mr. Veale continues on and comes next upon Mary McLaughlin, who is on her way to the beauty parlor where she is working with Therese. From Mary we learn that Josie Pepper is quite a figure in the town now since she has that big fashion shop for the upper class of the town. The day is over, and such a Welcome Home day the town has never before had. The whole world now knows that there is such a place as Holbrook, thanks to the brilliance of the Class of 1945. 18 THE ECHO Miss Kathryn Megley, coach ; A. Winkley, R. Smith, S. Mal- colm, T. Veale, C. Dyer, R. Lucas, T. Mack, D. Robertson, G. Clifford. SENIOR DRAMA “Miss Jimmy,” the most successful play ever to make its debut at Sumner, was presented by the Senior Class on December 15, under the direction of Miss Kathryn Megley. The action began when Jimmy (Thomas Veale) was forced by his fraternity brothers to enter Brier Mountain College for Women in search of a girl’s dress to wear in an initiation stunt. When the girls captured Jimmy, they decided to make his fraternity brothers escort them to the prom. Jimmy tried to escape by posing as “Miss Jimmy” in Louise’s dress. Jimmy was found out but promised to bring in his fraternity brothers for the dance while he chose to escort Louise (Dorothy Robertson). Louise’s college chums were Shirley Malcolm, Ruth Lucas, Ruth Smith, and Charlotte Dyer, while Geraldine Clifford played the char- acter part of Miss Watkins. Therese Mack, as Pansy, the colored janitor, moved about as fast as a snail that isn’t in a hurry. Arthur Winkley, as Professor Frazer, brought down the house with his cultivated English accent. The comedy was acclaimed as a great success, and a full house was loud in praise of the actors, actresses, and director. THE ECHO 19 First Row. Miss Grace McCarthy, adviser: A. Haskins, P. Kelley, E.

An assembly under the direction of Miss Anna Damon was pres- ented by the class on December 20, 1945 in honor of the Christmas season. Class rings, which had been ordered during the sophomore year, were received on September 15. The outstanding event of the year was the Junior Prom of May 4, a success both financially and socially. The hall was beautifully and originally decorated. Members of the faculty and the school commit- tee, the superintendent, and parents of the juniors were present. The juniors were escorts to the seniors on their Class Day, June 4, and at graduation, June 12. 20 THE ECHO First Roiv : Miss Barbara Holden, adviser; M. Bishop, T. Veale, A. Mackie, A. Card, R.

Paul Sturgeon joined the class in September but later left. Andrew Card rejoined the class after a year at Thayer Academy while Barbara Bowen entered from Brockton and Blanche Tison from Kingston. Although the boys did not go out for basketball, two of the girls, Marian Morgan and Barbara McGaughey, added their talent to the girls’ team. The boys were represented on the baseball squad. The biggest event of the year was the Sophomore Dance which was held on December 1, 1944. The music was furnished by “Don” Leach’s six-piece orchestra and the decorations were based on the theme of “Toyland.” This dance, which was the first sponsored by the class since it entered high school, was acclaimed one of the best of the year.

FRESHMAN CLASS President Robert Hollstein Vice-president Rita Markie Secretary Barbara Clinton Treasurer Edgar Carlson The Class of 1948 has forty-seven members: twenty-five in the College Course and twenty-two in the Commercial Course. Throughout the year the class lost only two members, Richard Benn and Ronald Murphy, while it was fortunate in gaining Diana Von Der Heide. Many members have participated in the school activities. On the basketball teams were Rita Markie, Barbara Clinton, Patricia How- land, Robert Hollstein, Richard Stokinger, Charles Dickinson, Robert Taylor, Eugene Andersen, Wilfred Austin, Thomas Haggai, Edgar Carlson, and Alan Loud. Although the class teams were defeated by the juniors in the finals of the intra-mural contests, the freshmen were victorious over the sophomores. The class had three cheer lead- ers, namely, Phyllis Harvey, Margo Dolan, and Dorothy Skilling. Student Council representatives were Patricia Howland and Richard Stokinger. The main event of the year was the Freshman Frolic which took place March 16 in the gymnasium, which was appropriately decorated in green and white. 24 THE ECHO CALENDAR Sept. 6 Oct. 12 26 27 Nov. 2 6 9 10 17 22 22 23 27 Dec. 1 12 15 19 19 Jan. 2 9 12 Feb. 9 14 16 16 26 Mar. 5 12 16 19 20 28 30 April 6 13 13 16 23 May 4 10 30 June 12 22 School once more for 1944-45 year.

STUDENT COUNCIL President Geraldine Clifford Secretary Charlotte Dyer Treasurer Thomas Veale Faculty advisers for the year were Miss Elna Knutson and Mr. Garland Neal, both of whom were very helpful in giving and receiving suggestions. At the meetings, which were held every two or three weeks, the various school activities were discussed. The assembly pro- gram for the year was to consist of several movie assemblies, and four assemblies featuring professional talent. The four chosen were the Clark Duo, Mora the Magician, a liquid air demonstration, and Pitt Parker. Some of the activities financed were the basketball teams, the cheer leaders, and the upkeep of the record machine. Recess dancing, which was enjoyed by many of the pupils, was held several days each week. The fee of one cent per person was used to buy new records. In the annual magazine drive, which was held in November, a profit of one hundred and thirty-two dollars was realized. One hundred dollars was appropriated for a camera for the newly organized Photography Club. An innovation was the foul shooting contest conducted for which all boys and girls were eligible. At the end of the year pins were awarded to Student Council members who had done outstanding work. THE ECHO 27 First Row: M. Dolan, D. Skilling, L. Files. Second Row: P. Kelley, manager; P.

The six girls diligently practiced in the laboratory each Tuesday afternoon and gradually built up enough cheers to keep the crowds busy. Student Council appropriated money for uniforms, but since none could be bought, royal blue skirts were made with the aid of the faculty and parents. These were worn with white sweatshirts. Special assemblies were held to teach the cheering sections the cheers, and during movie assemblies the girls were often called upon. They attended all the home games of the year and games at both Ran- dolph and Avon. With such a good start this year perhaps next year cheerleading will be an established activity that the school may be proud of. 28 THE ECHO First Row : Miss Barbara Holden, adviser; A. Loud, H.

SNOOPS AND SCOOPS Three unusually fine editions of “Snoops and Scoops” were pub- lished this year under the supervision of Miss Barbara Holden and Miss Grace McCarthy. At the beginning of the year it was decided to increase the price from five to twenty-five cents per copy. The Thanksgiving issue, featured an “I Am Thankful For” page and also a page depicting Sumner styles. It contained, as did the other two, letters from Sumner alumni w T ho are now attending college or are in the service. On Valentine’s Day the students of Sumner received the second publication of the year. Among the many original articles w T ere “Things We Have in Common” (with Hollywood), “Orchids and Onions,” and a cartoon of Sumner basketball casualties. The final edition, the Easter one, contained Sumner students’ requests to the Easter bunny, an appropriate poem by Gloria Albee bordered by drawings of my lady’s Easter chapeau, and sketches of senior and junior fashions.

GLEE CLUB The Girls’ Glee Club, composed of forty-seven members, started this year’s work in September with Miss Margaret Murphy as con- ductor and Elaine McIntosh as student accompanist. The Club often took part in assemblies during the year. At the annual Spring Concert held in the school hall April 13, 1945, the special group sang two selections: “Make Believe,” and “When I Grow Too Old to Dream.” The entire group sang “Rose Marie,” and “A Southern Melody,” the latter composed by Sumner’s talented pianist, Elaine McIntosh. Madel- ine Johnson and Joyce Whitaker delighted the audience with their rendition of “The Lilac Tree.” Graduation music was furnished by the Glee Club as well as music at the Baccalaureate Service. 30 THE ECHO Fi)st Row : Miss Grace McCarthy, coach, B.

GIRLS ' BASKETBALL Because of illness and injury, the girls’ basketball team had an unsuccessful season this year. Early in the season Marian Morgan received a leg injury and was forced to resign, while a few weeks later Mary White, one of the star forwards, became very sick with a throat infection and was not able to finish the season. Beginning the season with only a few veterans, the team was unable to continue playing as a result of these losses. Miss Grace McCarthy, coach, and Pauline Kelley, manager, and members of the squad tried hard to keep a team together but in vain. The girls played four games, losing the Whitman game by one point, and the other three by larger scores. The leading scorer was Beverly Paul with 29 points, followed by Mary White with 26 points. The girls look forward to a more satisfactory season next year. Sumner 33 Sumner 25 Sumner 8 Sumner 11 Whitman 34 Avon 37 Avon 27 Howard 20 THE ECHO 31 First Roiv: Mr. Wade Hooker, coach; E.

BOYS ' BASKETBALL Sumner’s basketball team got off to an early start this year with practice beginning in November under the able direction of Coach Wade Hooker. Back for the 1945 season was a complete veteran team, which included Captain Robert White, Karl Anderson, Robert How- land, Arthur Winkley, Robert Bettle, and Walter Jennings. Anderson, Howland, and White supplied most of the offensive punch with Wink- ley, Bettle, and Jennings shining defensively. Sumner ran up a record of ten straight victories until losing a tough one to Stetson High of Randolph. However, Sumner finished the year with a notable record of eleven victories and four defeats. As usual Sumner entered the South Shore Tournament in March. Sumner eliminated Scituate in the first game, but in the second round was beaten 51 to 45 by Orleans High in the highest scoring game in the tournament. That completed the formal season for the 1945 bas- ketball team at Sumner High. 32 THE ECHO BOYS 7 BASKETBALL Opponent Sumner 20 Cohasset Away 48 8 Nor well 43 22 Cohasset 47 18 Norwell Away 37 34 Avon 35 23 East Bridgewater Away 73 32 Avon Away 34 23 West Bridgewater 30 28 Sharon 31 19 East Bridgewater 62 46 Randolph Away 40 34 Randolph 33 42 Sharon Away 29 46 West Bridgewater Away 34 Y.
