Nervously we waited for things to begin to happen. Little did we know of what was in store for us. but imaginations ran high. The cool confidence of returning upper classmen was not reassuring in the least. Within a few weeks, however, we were deep in the swing of things, and we do mean deep. Between Latin conjugations and science for the College division, and business training for the Commercial, we were kept busy and out of mischief. Considering the small size of the class, we were pretty well represented in sports. Bob Johnston, Ron- ald Whittaker, Bob Foster, and Fred Hall were on the boys’ basketball squad, while Barbara Hollstein, Theresa Cassani, Dorothea Fisher, Esther Morton, and Marilyn Johnson made the girl hoopsters a feared team. Bob Foster went out for baseball: later Ronald Whittaker made the team. James Peat was our only trackman. For class officers this year, we elected Dorothy Murphy, president: Joyce Fouche, vice-president: Dorothea Fisher, secretary: and Fredrick Hall, treas- urer. Our Student Council representatives were James Peat and John Vining. The chief and only social event of the year was the Freshman Frolic on May 24. We left school in June satisfied that we had made an impression on Sumner High, old Sumner High by now. Sophomores When September rolled around again, with smug smiles born of experience we, as full-fledged sopho- mores, could watch the tottering freshmen. We were sorry to note that several members of our class were missing: namely, Harland White, Michael Kayian. Richard White. Edwin Loud, and Earle Nickerson. However, we were happy to observe two new faces in the persons of June MacNeil and Barry Moore. At class meetings — some called them “studies” — the following were elected to office: Joyce Fouche. presi- dent: Mary Garabedian. vice-president: Marilyn Johnson, secretary: and Fredrick Hall, treasurer. Dorothy Murphy and James Peat were our Student Council representatives. Here we chose our class motto — “The door to success is labeled ‘push’ ” and our class colors — maroon and gold. Now we settled down to struggling with French irregular verbs and algebra quadratics, or shorthand brief forms and double entry bookkeeping. Included in the activities for the year were a record hop and a food sale. Juniors Upper classmen we were in September, 1947, as we gathered for another year of work, sweat, toil, and blood. Counting heads, we missed Henry Coppolo, who had entered trade school in Weymouth: June MacNeil, who had moved to New York: and Barry Moore, who had moved to California. Class officers elected were Roland Hinckley, presi- dent: James Peat, vice-president: Rita Mack, secretary: and Fredrick Hall, treasurer. We were now entitled to three Student Council seats, and for these positions we chose Dorothea Fisher, Theresa Cassani, and John Vining to represent us. Memorable subjects for the year were chemistry and history or more shorthand and bookkeeping. Two food sales, a paper drive, and a hot dog sale showed that the class still had ambition. The big event of the year, quite naturally, was the Junior Prom on Friday, May 7, 1948. Don Leach and his orchestra were the music makers. Don was really “hot stuff” at the drums. Theresa Cassani and Roland Hinckley led the grand march. The Mardi Gras decorations of huge paper clowns and multi- colored streamers transformed the old gym into some- thing resembling the Waldorf-Astoria ballroom on New Year’s Eve. Despite rain, as usual, the event was a big success, and we know that everyone went away happy. Schoolbooks had been taken off mantlepieces dur- ing the previous three years, as witness the nine pro meritos earned by a class of twenty-five. You want to know who they are? You don ' t? Well, I’ll tell you anyway. They are Dorothea Fisher, Joyce Fouche, Mary Garabedian, Fredrick Hall, Rita Mack, Esther Morton. Dorothy Murphy. James Peat, and John Vining. All in all, we were much more dignified and mature this year. Seniors Twenty-five stockholders of Sumner High strutted back to classes in the fall of ' 48 as full-fledged Seniors. Joyce Fouche and Marilyn Johnson were the only ones not present and accounted for, Joyce having entered Thayer Academy, and Marilyn having moved to Whitman. This was destined to be the year of years to the class of classes. We chose as our officers in this, our final and great- est year. Fredrick Hall as president, Ronald Whittaker as vice-president, John Vining as secretary, and James Peat as treasurer. Theresa Cassani. Rita Mack, Bar- bara Hollstein, Emil Rosenberg, and Kent Callahan represented us in the Student Council. Rita Mack and Robert Johnston, respectively, won the honors of j 7 t i ' C THE ECHO 19 4 9 D.A.R. Good Citizen and State Good Government Representative. Hidden resources of energy and ambition began to appear where they were never suspected, and the class moved forward in seven league boots. A record hop. a hot dog sale, a paper drive, and a food sale were undertaken in rapid succession In ‘Salad Days , a three-act drama directed by Miss Kathryn Megley. the Seniors of ’49 proved their ability on the boards. Clementine, an old-fashioned girl, played by Dorothy Murphy, pays an extended visit to her aunt and uncle, Mr. and Mrs. Hammond, played by Eleanor Anderson and Kent Callahan, and their modern teen-age children, scientific-minded Peter and Nancy, acted by George Fader and Theresa Cas- sani. The perplexing situations into which Clemen- tine. the Hammond ' s and Nancy’s boy friend. Jimmy, played by Ronald Whittaker, entangle themselves, made for an amusing and enjoyable comedy. Others in the cast included Rita Mack as Peter’s girl friend, and Dorothy Marble as Mrs. Parker. A Senior-Junior basketball game was played on March 2. The Seniors lost by a close score to a heavily favored Junior team, but Senior bargaining and busi- ness sense had arranged for a fifty-fifty split of the profits, win or lose. The Senior girls beat the Junior girls soundly the same night. Leave it to the Class of ' 49 to provide a really scrumptious meal — more evidence of latent talent. The Senior Supper, naturally, was a financial success, and placed lasting memory in the minds of all those who attended. We don’t believe Duncan Hines could have asked for more. These, of course, are merely some of the compliments we received and are not to be con- strued as personal laurels. ’T was the eighteenth of April in ' 49 and hardly a Senior is now awake. Monday it was, and far from blue, as the big Greyhound Bus pulled into the huge, sprauling expanse of the Holbrook Central Terminal. It was thought that we might go out on a rail, but bus fares are cheaper than train fares. Anyway, off we were for New York and living. Right on schedule we checked in at the Piccadilly Hotel and for the next three days Holbrook was a thing unreal and intangible, referred to only occasionally in a vague and non- existent manner. The towering skyscrapers, the traf- fic, the hotels, and the restaurants became our home. With practically no letup we hopped from one sight to another— Perry Como broadcast. Statue of Liberty, Grant’s Tomb, Church of St. John the Divine. China- town. the Bowery. N.B.C. and Television tours, a Broadway musical (High Button Shoes), a Radio City Music Hall Show, Observation Roof tour, and Howdy Mr. Ice. an ice show. One attraction not men- tioned in the itinerary was the view of the latest model Cadillacs, Packards, and Buicks on display by the sidewalks of Harlem. All good things must eventually come to an end. however, including this history, and suddenly we awoke from our dream back in Holbrook. The voice of experience offers advice to future travelers — get plenty of sleep before the trip and don ' t believe it when they say you can eat well in New York for three dollars a day. School will not be over for all for some time yet. James Peat. Ronald Whittaker, and John Vining have been accepted by Northeastern University. Dorothea Fisher will attend Forsyth’s to become a dental hygien- ist. Dorothy Murphy is bound for Boston University. Elinor Anderson will study at Mansfield Beauty Culture Academy. Rita Mack will learn business at Burdett. On the horizon can be seen, dimly visible, gradua- tion. Some may say that it’s the best news since the gold rush just one hundred years ago, but we modern forty-niners, as we blaze forth a trail through the wilderness, know that behind each school of reproof and each gray hair, there is a sack of gold dust tucked away somewhere.

Item 1 — We bequeath to the juniors all of the teachers, all the good times, one last rugged year, pleasant memories of law class, the trials, troubles, and tribu- lations of where to go on a class trip, and the honor and prestige of being seniors. Item 2 — We bequeath the sophomore the dignified air, the sophistication, and the ability of controlling the school next year. Item 3 — We bequeath to the freshmen three more years of hard study with the hope they will not weaken under the strain. Item 4 — We bequeath to the incoming Freshman Class all the fun we have had throughout our four years of high school and all the luck in the world. Item 5 — We bequeath to the incoming office girls the job of writing tardy passes. Item 6 — We leave to the teachers of Sumner the pleas- ant memories of the Class of 1 949. Item 7 — We leave to Mr. Neal the happy memories he had with us in New York on our class trip. Item 8 — -The physics class of ' 49 leaves all the fun and work they had with Miss Dunbar to the incom- ing class. Item 9 — The Senior girls leave their ability to have loads of fun in their last year of school, in spite of all the rules, to the Junior girls, and their front row seats at the basketball games to the Sophomore girls. Item 10 — Windy Bettencourt and Ronald Whittaker leave the honor of being safe and sane drivers to any deserving juniors. Item 1 1 — Theresa Cassani bequeaths her basketball technique for playing both forward and guard at the same time to any energetic and vigorous person in good old Sumner High. Item 12 — Bob Foster leaves to Dick McCormick his ability to make out with all the girls. Item 13 — Ginny Martin leaves her ability to rattle the lunch table in the hall to some junior. Item 14 — Dorothy Murphy leaves her ability of keeping her hair beautiful to any girl who has hair as beautiful as hers. Item 1 5 — John Vining leaves his ability as a genius, a procrastinator, and an excuse maker to anyone feeling capable of the job. Item 16 — We leave our natural brilliance to anyone capable of handling it. Item 17 — The Senior Class leaves. We attest this to be a true copy of the last will and final testament of the Senior Class of 1949, Sumner High School, Holbrook, Massachusetts, this tenth day of June in the year of our Lord, One Thousand Nine Hundred and Forty-nine.

This broadcast is accomplished by the use of the newly invented two-way television set created by that well-known radio announcer. Ronald Whittaker. It was set up in our ultra-modern televis- ion station at Sumner High under the supervision of its owner. Mr. Robert Foster. The wealthy Mr. Fos- ter is believed to be considering enacting classic plays over television. But now our special set. which picks up any place at any time, switches to New York City where we witness the gala opening of Walter Hill’s stupendous bakery. Our old friend is now maker of the finest pastries in the world. It has been said that the Hill Co. will supply enough bakery products for the whole city. While we ' re in this great city where we spent our class trip, we shall visit the world premier of “Gone With the Breeze,” starring Esther L’Amour, formerly Miss Esther Morton of our great little town of Hol- brook. Among the list of great stars to entertain at this show is the renowned opera singer. Mary Gara- bedian. She has made a special trip from France, where she was finishing her world tour to perform tonight. Also featured in New York is the grand opening of the World ' s Fair, where the newly-manufactured cars, designed by Windy” Bettencourt are on display. Besides other special features, the car is outfitted with a horn which resounds with the complete scale. Since we are already here, let’s watch the departure of the Super Queen Mary on another good-will tour. Could it be that because Rita Mack was the D. A. R. Good Citizen in 1949 she was able to get where she is at present 5 For there we see her accompanying the President of the U. S. as his special and confidential secretary. After observing this magnificent opening, we dial to Washington, D. C., where the Celtics have just beaten the Washington team for the U. S. professional basketball championship. Bob Johnston, their high- scoring forward, broke loose again with 45 points, and is seen receiving the trophy. Being in Washington, let’s take a short glimpse of the Supreme Court, which is in session. Well, what do you know? Sitting in his finest robe and with his most dignified expression, is George Hanson, whose deep voice is most effective in his chosen profession. The attorney for the defense, Mr. Roland Hinckley, a most famous crime lawyer, is delivering a stirring closing speech. We know he’ll win this and any other case he undertakes. A special flash from Boston has been received. Miss Barbara Hollstein, a former teacher at M. I. T., has i been made its first woman president. This honor was bestowed on our friend, Barb, because of her brilliant mind and marvelous teaching ability. And something else! The discovery of a new element, Vinium, more powerful than Radium, was made recently. After many many years of hard study and work by our past genius of the class, the great Chemical Engineer, Mr. John Vining, is also being honored at the inauguration of his classmate, Barbara, at M. I. T. The latest and luckiest winner of the $20,000 prize awarded by the “Truth or Consequences” radio pro- gram is touring the U. S. as one of her prizes: hence we dial Miss Marilyn Barton, Houston, Texas, where she is being met by her former classmate, that wealthi- est of oilmen, Mr. Kent Callahan, whose oil fields are now one of the wonders of Texas. Both are on their way to visit at the newly-built U. S. Hospital in Houston, the Head Nurse, who is our old friend, Dorothy Marble. Dot received this position at the center of all the hospitals in the country because of her marvelous work in the fight against Cancer. i 1 2 } THE ECHO 19 4 9 Out in sunny California at the summer training home of Boston ' s famous girls ' basketball team, the Amazons, we find Tessie Cassani, who is hard at work teaching this team all she knows about zone defense. We know now that with Tessie’s expert attention, they will win that for which they are striving — the World ' s Championship. today. While in France we switch to the home of the Andre Models. The owner of this most famous model agency is Miss Elinor Anderson, who person- ally trains all her girls. The loveliest of all these most beautiful girls in the world is that gorgeous blond. Miss Thea Fisher, who has just signed a contract with the Foster Television Co. It takes quite a while to turn the dial to focus it on that little country of Japan, where we are able to see General Charles Brown at the capital, Tokio. He. as the representative of the U. S., is signing The Pacific Peace Pact,” a special peace treaty with the Japanese. General Brown, who has long been sta- tioned at the head of all forces in the Pacific, is a favor- ite with all his troops. Admiral George Fader is now giving his address to the many people gathered around the open square where the peace pact is being signed. He brought his huge fleet into the harbor only this morning, but said he wouldn’t have missed seeing his old friend, Charlie,” for anything. Dorothy Murphy is at present touring Europe with her millionaire husband, the handsome Maharajah of Mandura. We see her in Paris at the special exhibi- tion of that newly found wonder, Emil Rosenberg, photographer, at whose studio were found the most unusual pictures of landscape known to the world Let ' s take a trip now to a more southerly position. Africa! Here, Sumner ' s answer to Howard Hughes, Fred Hall is sponsoring the construction of the world ' s largest airport, as huge as an ordinary city. His engi- neer, the man most in demand in the U. S., Mr. James Peat is reported to have stated that the airport will be available for any type plane at any time. We return at last to this thriving metropolis that once was our little home town. Let’s stop awhile to discuss its progress with one of the city’s most promi- nent figures, Miss Virginia Martin. She is head of the women’s club here and is a candidate for Select- man in the coming election. Thus we return to Sumner High, knowing you must have enjoyed this revelation, and conclude this special broadcast of the Class of 1949 as of June 10. 1949. DOROTHY MURPHY ii n THE ECHO 19 4 9 D. Murphy. R. Mack. G. Fader. D. Marble. K. Callahan. E. Anderson. R. Whittaker, Miss Kathryn Megley, coach; T. Cassani. Senior ' ram a The Senior Drama. “Salad Days,” which made its debut on Friday evening. December 10. was con- sidered a great success both in proceeds and in the way of production. Dorothy Murphy, who had the leading role, char- acterized Clementine, a studious old-fashioned cousin who comes to make her home with the Hammond family while attending public high school. Her previ- ous schooling had been in private schools where uni- forms of middy blouses and black skirts only were worn and which she refuses to discard, much to the embarrassment of her cousins, Nancy and Peter Ham- mond. Peter, played by George Fader, has a new hobby, that of inventing a new plant which he has named for his beloved girl-friend. Sylvia, played by Rita Mack. For some reason unknown to Nancy, por- trayed by Tessie Cassani, her boy-friend. Jimmy, is attracted to Clementine. The part of Jimmy Parker was enacted by Ronald Whittaker. Between the tangled teen-age romances and the confusion Peter causes in the household with the experiment, the situations in the action of the story proved highly entertaining. With the final succumb- ing of Peter’s plans, due to too much care on the part of Clementine, Mrs. Hammond, played by Elinor Anderson, and Mrs. Parker, the helpful next-door neighbor, played by Dorothy Marble, and the occas- ion of a high school dance at which Clementine blos- soms forth in a modern evening gown, minus her horn-rimmed spectacles and black stockings, the situa- tion is cleared up and peace reigns once more in the Hammond household with Mr. Hammond, played by Kent Callahan, sitting in his easy chair. All Sumner congratulated Miss Kathryn Megley, who as coach gave so much of her time to make the drama a success, and the entire cast. ! 14 y THE ECHO 19 4 9 SEATED: G. Johnston, P. Roberts, J. Budd.

Girls’ Glee Club, girls’ and boys’ basketball, baseball, gym squad, and Snoops and Scoops were well represented by Juniors. Our monthly class meetings were held and the important business of the class was discussed. Richard Balch, Sylvia Day, Lillian Mulhern, and Louise Ho- bart were elected to Student Council. White and gold were our class colors for this year. Our class rings were received in January. Many events including a hot dog sale, a record hop, a three-act play and the Junior Prom have been held. The play, The Absent Minded Professor,” was pre- sented on April 29 in the high school auditorium. It GRACE JOHNSTON PAUL ROBERTS JOANNE BUDD was greatly enjoyed by all. The cast of the play was comprised of Paul Roberts, Rosaleen O’Connor. Paul Stokinger, Richard McCormick, Robert Hamilton, Joan Dowrey. Phyllis Putt, Richard Balch. Warren Ernest, Nancy Chapman, Jean Stevenson, and Betty Wallster. The stage managers were JoAnne Budd and Betty Mitchell. The play was coached by our faculty advisers, Miss Elna Knutson and Miss Grace Mc- Carthy. The Junior Prom, starring A1 Furtado’s Orchestra, was held on May 6. The hall was gayly decorated in pastel streamers and flowers. Our Junior year has nearly ended, and we are now looking forward to being Seniors. We hope that our Senior year will be just as successful as this one has been. f I THE ECHO 19 4 9 SEATED; E. McGaughey. R. Andrea, T. Smith. L. Marcus. FIRST ROW: Mr. John Walsh, advisor: N. Fulton.

Sumner’s popular magazine, was issued three times during our school year and really seemed to be more popular than ever. All the issues contained the usual features such as Class News. Sports, Jokes, and our beloved friend, Sally Snoop. The first copy, distributed at Thanks- giving time, gave us an idea of what last year ' s class- men were doing. The second edition was given out on Valentine’s Day. It contained a write-up of the Senior Drama, several fashions, and also poetry. Sev- eral games of the boys ' and girls ' basketball teams were written up in this issue. The last edition was dis- tributed at Easter time and naturally contained Easter drawings and fashions. This featured an article on the D.A.R. Good Citizen Pilgrimage and several poems. Those on the staff wish to thank Miss Grace Mc- Carthy for her aid in making our school paper a success and also wish to thank the Junior High for their material. i I THE ECHO 19 4 9 FIRST ROW: B.

BaXtUl Sumner opened its basketball practice in late Octo- ber to start the ball rolling along to what was to end up in Sumner for the second year in a row, playing for the Class B Championship and losing it in the last quarter. The team switched to the newly formed Mayflower league, gained some new rivals, and lost some old ones. They played in the Boston Garden again and won back the game they lost last year to Edwards High of West Boylston. 32-25. After winning two out of two outside games in its league debut. Sumner bowed in with a 52-28 win over Plain vil le and established itself as the team to beat in the league. After winning three games in the South Shore Tournament, and establishing itself as a finalist in the Class B Championship, we dropped a two point decis- ion to East Bridgewater in the last ten seconds of the game. In recognition of their work, in May the team was given a banquet at the Randolph Town House and then journeyed to Boston to see the circus.

The Freshmen class was well represented. With only two girls back from last year, four new ones had to learn all the cheers and it took time and practice. Nancy Chapman had returned from last year with Selma Anderson. Those remaining were Frances Skilling, Joan Pawlowski. Nancy Colby. Elizabeth Buckley. Selma Anderson was chosen captain, and Miss Doro- thy Mackin was supervisor. Practices were held in the gym or any vacant place. Although the majority of the group had never cheered in front of a large audience before, they did exceptionally well at the “Y” and Armory games which were the most impor- tant of the whole season, with their support and enthusiasm. {24 y THE ECHO 19 4 9 FIRST ROW: Miss Margaret T.

Immediate practice was begun for the Annual Spring Concert which was presented on on April 8. 1949. This, as is the Girls’ Chorus, was under the direction of Miss Margaret T. Murphy. A very effective finale concluded the program as the girls sang The Star Spangled Banner,” while the flag Ctul waved with a blue light illuminating it. The selec- tions for the evening were One Alone” and Your Land and My Land.” On Baccalaureate Sunday and at Graduation, the chorus will also participate. At Graduation Giannina Mia” and You’ll Never Walk Alone,” will be on the program. •i 25 • • • PATRONS • • • Mr. and Mrs. G. L. Neal Mr. and Mrs. John P.
