During the year the class lost many mem- bers but was very fortunate in gaining Joan Bell and Barry Moore for the commercial course, and John Vining for the college group. Marilyn Johnson. Dorothea Fisher, Barbara Holl- stein, and Theresa Cassani represented our class on the basketball team and did some fine work during the season. Both our class teams were defeated by the Sophomores. There were no cheerleaders from our class, but Theresa Cassani and Barbara Hollstein ex- DOROTHY MURPHY JOYCE FOUCHE DOROTHEA FISHER FREDERICK HALL celled in gym stunts. Many students of the class con- tributed articles to “Snoops and Scoops.’’ The class held three meetings throughout the year. The only real excitement, however, was the Frolic held on May 24. Decorations, which were most at- tractive, were supervised by Miss Hazel Merriman, Joyce Fouche, Barbara Hollstein. James Peat, Rita Mack, and Frederick Hall, assisting her. Everyone co- operated to make the affair a success. Now that its first year of high school is nearing an end, the Class of 1 949 looks forward to returning in September as Sophomores. 18

EDGAR CARLSON VICE-PRESIDENT PAULINE HADFIELD SECRETARY BARBARA CLINTON TREASURER HELENA CLIFFORD Returning to Sumner last September, the Sopho- more Class was sorry to learn that it had lost three members: Jean DeSousa, Douglas Smith, and Gloria Albee. However, it was happy to find Ronald Murphy, one of its former members, and Arthur Bar- ton from Hingham. Later in the year it welcomed Malcolm MacDonald and the return of Gloria Albee. Socially the year was uneventful but athletically the class was not surpassed. On the boys’ basketball squad were Robert Hollstein, Charles Dickinson, Edgar Carl- son, Ronald Murphy, Robert Taylor, Eugene Ander- son, and Richard Stokinger. The girls ' basketball team had Diana Von der Heide. Maureen Kelly, and Patricia Howland. Sumner ' s Gym Squad was fortu- nate in having Arthur Barton, Raymond Taylor, Eugene Cote, and Diana Von der Heide. The baseball team also had a number of Sophomore boys, and Dorothy Skilling represented the class in cheerleading. Many other classmates favored different school activi- ties such as Glee Club, Snoops and Scoops Staff, The Echo, and the Photography Club. The main event of the year was the Sophomore boys’ basketball victory over the Seniors, making them the school champions since they had been victorious over the Ereshmen in a previous game. Now, when its second year of high school is clos- ing, the Class of 1948 looks forward to next Sep- tember when its members may once again join in the fun at Sumner. Then they may be classified under the dignified title of ‘’upperclassmen.” 17

For the athletics of the school, basketball and baseball were financed and their advertising, tickets, and accounts taken care of. The foul shooting contest was held again this year with more than eighty stu- dents participating. Other activities included assisting in the Junior Red Cross Drive and in the PTA; tak- ing charge of recess dancing; sponsoring movie assem- blies, including the exceedingly interesting “Voyage of the Volita:” and installing a suggestion box. The customary magazine drive was held, the proceeds being placed in a fund for improving the stage. School spirit was enhanced by the sponsoring of the cheer leaders, the awarding of school letters, and the sale of booster pins, emblems, and stickers. The delegates attended two interesting conventions of the Southeastern Branch of the High School Student Councils of Massachusetts, one in New Bed- ford, and the other at Fall River. Faculty advisers for the year were Miss Elna Knut- son and Mr. Garland Neal, who aided the Council greatly with their kindly help and suggestions. 19
