And the time has come for parting Each from everyone. Schoolmates, classmates, friends, and teachers - We must say adieu. But, although, we part forever, We'll he always true. Through the portals of the future To our destiny Ever onward, ever upward, We'll strive faithfully. Now we bid farewell to high school Each to go his way, Loyalty with sadness blending On our parting day. Harvey Smith '46 ' ll THE SUNBEAM Dear'Diary-- April 6, l9h6 ' ' ' Eight of us seniors, one junior, Miss Proctor, and two out- siders arrived at the station in Biddeford around 9:l5 to- night. We left there at 9:30 for New York. All of us rode in the coach, excepting four who wished a good night's sleep.' We were fortunate in getting seats quite close to- gether. Besides the noise of the train to keep us awake we had two mice which ran up and down the aisle. Carolyn Usher had toeless shoes on, so we all told her that the mice would bite her toe. When she was almost asleep Harvey Smith tickled her toe and she screamed so hard I think she woke the whole coach. By the looks, I don't think there will be much sleeping tonight. April 7, l9h6 , We arrived at Grand Central Station at eight o'clock this morning. We were about half an hour late. We find those who rode in the pullman didn't get so very much sleep after all.: Mr. Green, the man who sponsored this tour had taxis waiting here at the station. We jumped into the cabs bag and baggage and shortly arrived at the Taft Hotel to check our baggage until our rooms were ready. Here we met our accompanying high school, Warrenburg. We went to the auto- mat-to eat breakfast---a place where you put a nickel or dime in a slot and out comes your food. After breakfast we rode on the subways to Riverside Church. Most of our heads nodded slightly during the sermon. 'After church we had dinner and then went back to the hotel. As soon as our sditcases were unpacked we went to the zoo. Here we saw many interesting animals. We enjoyed the baboon's foolish- ness as much as anything. We rested at the hotel for a while and then enjoyed a thrilling elevator ride to the top of the R. C. A. Building. The elevator man informed us we were going two'flights a second, so you see, we weren't standingi still. At the top we could look down upon the whole city. We went to eat and then met Mr. Green to-go to the television tour. This was very interesting. We saw how they make different sound effects and everything about television and radic. After this tour, we went to the Ice Show at Center Theatre. The ones that managed to keep theireyes open enjoyed it. We got out of there just in time to see the Crime Doctor broadcast. Some of the boys went to Billy Rose's Diamond Horseshoe instead of this broadcast. 'Lmst of us get back to the hotel around l2:CO ready for a good night's sleep. April 8, l9L6 V Got up in time to have breakfast and be on the bus at 8:00 to leave for Washington. Warrenburg High School was in 12 THE SUNBEAM , the same bus with us. We had a very enjoyable ride to Washington. Visited the Franciscan Monastery before going to Ebbitt Hotel. The evening was free so most of us went to a movie. NSaratoga Springsn, I believe it was. April 9, l9h6- Tuesday . We went to Arlington National Cemetery and to the tomb of the Unknown Soldier the first thing this morning. fThat is after breakfast! D Our trip to Mt. Vernon was tops for the day. We also visited Lincoln Memorial, Jefferson Memorial and Washington Memorial before dinner. After dinner we went to Ford Theatre, a little trip thought up by our- selves, and the Smithsonian Institute. Soon as supper was over, the bus took us to the Library of Congress. Some of our group stayed at the Library with Miss Proctor longer than others. The rest went back to the hotel and then went sightseeing around the town. We thought Miss Proctor and the folks with her would never return to the hotel to- night. We understand they had a little difficulty with north-west and southweast directions in finding their way back to Tenth Street, N.W., the location of our hotel. April lO, l9h6--Wednesday' We toured the F.E.I. Building this morning. We all thought we had better lead a good life after seeing this building and the ways the tF.E.I. have of tracking down federal of- fenders. Next, we went to the Bureau of Printing and En- ed we had been able to bring back a saw as souvenir of the trip. We al today, but, of course, didn't see dinner, some of us went back to the to stay until supper time. Nothing graving where we wish little of the money we so went to the Capitol the President. After Smithsonian Institute was planned for the evening so we did as we wished once more. April ll, l9n6--Thursday . In the morning we went shopping for souvenirs. We had our dinner and then started on our Skyline Drive to the Shen- andoah Caverns. Had e very delicious Southern-fried chick en dinner at the Shenandoah Caverns Inn. After our sup - per we went sixty feet underground in an elevator to see the wonderful caverns with their beautifully lighted sta- lagmites and stalactytes. There wesn't much to do after our ascent from the caverns. We were sort of out in the country, as you might say. We played games and then went to bed. I might add that the beds were very cold---they hadn't been slept in since before the warl World War II D1 And then too we are now used to nothing but steam-heated rooms. Haven't we been big city Whotelitesn now for about four nights? 15 3 Tim stnssn-ff April 12, 19L,6--Friday We woke this morning practically frozen to the sheetsl Af- ter awhile we managed to get to breakfast. We hurried our food down so that we wotldn't be late getting the bus. We didn't want to get left there- it had even begun to snow so you see how cold it was. On our.way to Pennsylvania we vis- ited Frederick, Merylend and had our dinner in the Francis Scott Key Hotel. Also prowled through the rooms in Bar- bara Fritchie's house, seeing the very window out of which she stuck Nher old grey hesdn. This efternoon was made mem- orable by our tour of the Gettysburg battle fields. Tonight we find ourselves in the Yorktown 'Eotel, York, Pennsylvania They heve good movies in this town, too. April l3 , l9L,6--Saturday We had dinner today at Wayne, Pennsylvania, after touring the famous Valley Forge battle grounds. Saw Independence Hall and Betsy Ross house on our way through Philadelphia this afternoon. Arrived in New Yorr around five o'clocK.. We went to Times Square end into Kacy's Department Store where we rode on every escalator running. Had supper and took taxis to Grand Central Station where we get our trein to start home. Thanh goodness there were no mice in this coach! AWe thought one of the boys was bringing home s dark- .J ie girl, but unfortunately she left at a Connecticut station April ln, l9L,6--Sunday, , Biddeford-eNEiddefordW -what pleasant words to our ears ! The conductor didn't have to throw us off the train---We were only too gled to leave the trsin and climb into the family automobiles which we found waiting for us. and now, dear diary, for some sleep! 5 , f I ,'---r'f77X- Q ' I. ,-.'.A- .-.g '.4.h...':.-.7.,.,, I I ' i-.fy--75-jf, '-. .'.

We took considerable pushing around by our superiors, the juniors,as they wanted to get up back so the teacher wouldn't see them behave like little nangelsn. As the result, we sophomores arrived in the front row seats where the teacher could watch us - ugh! ' ' Time for Horseshoes. We went out for it wholehearted- ly. After many weary hours of practicing, four sophomore girls went to face Buxton. The boys didn't quite make the team - but they will next year! Estella Waterhouse and Marian Benson were on the first team and Ruth Crosby and Verna Benson made up the second. As a result of the com- bined efforts of the sophomores, we beat Buxton. Next to try for the cup. Here we met up against a stone wall - Cor- nish. We lost to you, Cornish, but next year watch out for the juniors! Alfred Havu and Hugh MacDonald sharpened up their wits while they prepared to beat anyone 'who challenged them in their skill with Checkers. They played gallantly but were finally beaten. Better luck next time, boys. The studies weren't getting any easier but the boys who wanted to make the basketball team were eating up the lessons,Ansel Smith, Alfred Havu, and Elliott Towle did not quite make the first team, but they saw quite a bit of ac- tion on the floor and won a school letter. As you can see, we sophomores are sports-minded, but that doesn't mean that's all we are interested in. Some of us worked on the school's year book, some were heads of com mittees for-socials, some went out for prize speaking, and some tried their wits in the spelling contest. As you will notice when reading the names listed in the Activities Sec- tion of our book, we are a good rounded out American Sopho- more Class. I BAD HABITS NEVER EXHIBITED BY THE SOPHOMORES 1. Chewing gum in school 2. Playing jokes on the freshmen 5. Writing notes in class 4. Using slang 5. Wasting time around the ping-pong tables GOOD HABITS ALMAYS EXHIBITBD BY THE SOPHOMOHES l. At school on time - particularly the Bensons 2. Biology lesson learned perfectly 5. Noon hours devoted to study - not to frivolous talk 4. Always have all necessary pencils, books,and,papers with them in each class h 5. Always very quiet in the halls between classes 18 THE SUNBEAM FRESHMAN CLASS We, the class of l94O, entered Hollis High School on September lO, l945. We were all very frightened, especially when upper classmen would mention the nFreshman Recep- tionn. I Using the very much appreciated instructions of Mrs. Walker, we held our first class meeting on September 27th. At this meeting Virginia Illingworth was elected president, Melville Bradbury,vice-president, Kathryn Green, secretaryg Joyce Enman, treasurer. To represent us in the 'student council, Harold Willey was chosen. Freshman Reception was held on the evening of -Septem- ber 28th.There were certain requirements we had to fulfill. We did so willingly, fearing what might happen if we didn!t There were twenty-six of us when we entered school in September. One student left us after the second week of school. Three others left before mid-years. There are now twenty-two. After losing our Student Council member,we elected an- other, Constance Smith, who had joined our class the second six weeks of school. ' The present members of the class are: Virginia lllingworth President Melville Bradbury Vice-president Kathryn Green Secretary Joyce Enman Treasurer Constance Smith Student Council Cora Gerry Frances Huff Alice Gerry Lucille Harmon William Green Helen Smith Frances Robinson Doris Whitten Patricia Harmon Leon Brown I Joan Virgie Roger Smith Eleanor Johnson George Burnham Shirley Smith Eleanor Wormwood Howard Huff T 19 THE SUNBEAM AT THE HGLLIS HIGH If you to Hollis should chance to roam, Come right in and make yourself at home. l'll start right now and describe to you All the many things the kids here do. Herb, who is a handsome man, Gets his teeth filled whenever he can. Myrna and Ken, as you should know, Spend most of their time attending a show At the head of the stairs you'll always see Donald and Shirley, as nice as can he. If Alfred should happen to go to town, Stella follows him up street and down. As Ruth's long history class drags by, Her mind often wanders to Deering Highg While Joan to West Buxton doth go, To see Someone? You'll never know!! When Elsie's invited to go to a play, Fred manages to get there, the same way. As Keith's little Olive goes away somewhere He stays at home, his lessons to prepare. The kids of Hollis are grand, Living, as they do, in a goodly land. They master their lessons, every one, And still they have some time for fun. So thus we know, as the years go by, All things will prosper at Hollis High. M. Sandra MacLeod '13 20 ff , M-d.,,,,.v- A --s, 5 5 2 1 X, y,,-:,1f Y- ,X 'NX u.. --.,..

Grandpa Brown, sitting in his easy chair, was discussing the dessert between puffs on his corncob pipe with fourteen-year-old Peter, who lay stretched out comfortably on the couch nearby. nYbur mother's a wonderful cook, my boy. That squash pie was just what the doctor ordered. It seems like old times to get a good big piece of cheese again after it's be ing rationed for so long. pie as big as as big as the had to eat all rolled over to face the wall. 'Suddenly,' instead of looking Peter nodded sleepily. nYou got something there, I never yet had enough squash pie.

On the other side colored barn, bigger than any othe He looked again at the pool at crinkled,but these ripples didn't bank of a yellowish-brown of the pool was a cream- r barn Peter had ever seen his feet. The surface was seem to change the way the little waves of water always did. What was that yellow stuff? A pleased look crept into Peter's eyes, and stooping, he thrust his forefinger into the pool. As Peter lifted his hand, he found a soft yellow substance clinging to finger, and tasting this, he gave a whoop of joy. 'Squash pie! I bet that big barn is made of cheese. Now let's see! I al- ways believe in saving the best until last. I guess I'll start on the barn first.n'Peter began to run around the edge of the pool toward the yellow building. .His pleasure was dampened a bit when a piercing, grat- ing voice, that seemed to come from all directions at once like a whirlwind, shrieked, nDon't forget you've got to eat it all before it spoils, -Peter regarded.the side of the barnlin a puzzled fash- ion, muttering to himself, HI can't very well eat from the bottom up, and there isnft any ladder. Oh well! Perhaps I can hack out some steps with my jack-knife. Then I can climb to the ridge-pole and eat from the top down.n Taking his knife from his pocket, he proceeded to cut steps in the slip pery wall. This was harder work than he thought it was going to be Peter, chopping hurriedly in the brilliant sunlight, was nearly exhausted by the time he neared the edge of the slop- 50 THE SU NBBAM ing roof. Suddenly the light changed from a glaring yellow to a soft greenishPblue. Looking up, Peter found himself in the shadow of a tall blue post with something on top of it that looked like an immense football. The cool shade was welcome. Peter sat down at the foot of the post and leaned I . His relaxation was short-lived, however, forcthe post began to sway violently. Peter rose quickly to his feet as a disgruntled voice shouted, 'UI'm no armchair, young man, and you're messing up my hairl Seems to me you're taking considerable liberty around here. This barn belongs to me, Thallophyte Fungus -'mouldy' to my friends. What might your name be?' ' Ulf you please, sir, my name is Peter Brown.n uBrown Peter? Any relation to old Salt Peter? He was a true friend of my family. I believe he saved the life of several of my distant relatives years ago. No, from the way you act it's more likely that you're the good-for-nothing son of that hateful ogress, Brown Betty,u f nBrown Betty is a dessert. My mother's name is Betty Brown, and she's a very nice woman,U Peter interrupted has- tily. nBrown Bettyln corrected Mouldy. nhuman beings are so stupid! Why, even the most ignorant alga knows that the fam- ilyname comes first. Nice woman, indeed! Do you know what she did just yesterday afternoon? She took a huge sharp piece of steel and deliberately sliced the fouldations out under the homes of thousands of my relatives. Do you think she was satisfied with that? No, she picked them up, homes and all, and threw them into a fiery firnace. To cap it all, she left me out here in the hot sun. The air on the outside of this barn is so dry that l'm growing old much too fast. My hair has begun to lose it's rich blue color.Some day I'll get even with her. uAt this point a speculative note crept into Mouldy's voice. nPerhaps I can serve two branches with one root, as the old saying goes. A little pantothenic acid is just the tonic I need. It is found in the liver. Now, all I have to do is knock you down with a spore and thrust a rhiaoid into your bloedy1liyer.n Peter backed hastily away as the football-like struct- ure opened slowly and a huge blue ball rolled toward .the aperture, while at the same time, a long, snake-like append- age advanced rapidly toward him from the foot of the post. Peter turned and fled, darting headlong into a dusky tunnel whose entrance appeared'before him as he raced along the roof. The passage twisted this way and that. After round J 51 THE SUNEELM ing several bends, the boy paused and listened intently. He heard no sound. Evidently Mouldy had given up the pursuit. Regaining a little of his composure, Peter went eau- tiously along the dimly lighted tunnel.The farther he wont, the darker it became. It was so dark, in fact, that Peter, rounding a sharp turn, bumped headlong into a soft,slimy oh- ject which obstructed his path. I Mwhy don't you look where you're going?n said a squeaky voice. UI beg your pardon, said Peter, nwho might you te?n nI'm Skipper. Not that it's any business of yours. Don't you realize' that youlre trespassing? This barn belong to me. My mother, Mrs. Black Diptera, promised that I could live here undisturbed for two whole weeks, and that I could eat all the time for seven days. Now you appear on the scene.n Skipper jumped angrily at Peter. Peter,profiting by his previous experience with Mouldy, had edged by Skipper while this conversation was going on and was several steps ahead of him along the tunnel. With Skipper's first movement, Peter was off at a gallop. The race was on, Skipper gaining at every leap. The passage-way grew lighter and suddenly Peter found himself on the roof of the barn again. He tried in vain ,to check his headlong flight, but his efforts were unavailing. nWhat's the use, he muttered to himself. nlf I stop, Skipper will catch me. If I keep on sliding, Mouldy is wait- ing for me at the edge of the roof. Even if I succeeded in eluding him, I'd only tumble into the pool and drown. I oouldn't swim in that sticky squash pie. I guess this is where little Peter passes in, his checks.n He shut his eyes tightly and made a supreme effort to be brave, but he trem- bled with uncontrolable terror as he felt an arm close tight ly around his shoulders. uwake up, Peterln said Mrs. Brown, shaking her son gent ly. nIt's seven o'clock. You'd better eat a little bit before you start for the movies. There's some cheese and part of a squash pie on the sideboard.n Peter repressed a shudder. nI'don't believe I want any- thing more than a chicken sandwich,n he replied. Keith Whitehouse '46 52 THE SUNBEAM ' DYNAMITE My story is to be about Dynam1te . Now you may wonder why I should be writing about Dynamite. Well, to start my. story, Dynamite is my dog. He is an Irish Setter. His col- or is black with just a little bit of white on his paws. He is not a very large dog. You may think his name is a very odd name for so little a dog .to have. Maybe I should explain how he came to have that name. When Dynamite was a very small puppy, about three or four weeks old, he would get very angry if a per- son came near him and he would start to bark when anyone would pick him up or pet him. He always tried to act as if he were very ugly. He was very cute when he was like that. It seemed as if he were trying to scare you and tell yyou not to come near him as he might bite. I had to find a name to give him so after I . noticed how easily he got angry,I decided I would call him Dynamite as he was dangerous and had to be handled with care. .My mother did not like the name at all, but I liked itas it it was a very good name for him. . Dynamite likes to ride in a car. Every time my father goes out of the yard Dynamite thinks he has to go along. When he was small, I used to take him with me all 'the time when I went anywhere on my bicycle. I had a carrier on the front of my bicycle and he would sit in.1t very cone tentedf I could leave him in it and go away and when I came back he would be right there. After a while, though, he got too big to ride in the carrier so I had to leave him atlhome and I'tell you he did not like that at all. When I go swimming in the summer,I sometimes let Dyna-- mite go with me, but not very often, as I cannot do much swimming with him around as he follows me out always into the water, and is never satisfied until I come out of the water. One day last fall my father came into the yard and Dynamite, as was his habit, ran out to meet him. This time though, Dynamite got too near the back wheels and my father ran over him. He was hurt quite badly, but we took ,good care of him and after a while he got better. I guess he did not learn anything from it because he still runs out to meet all the cars that come into the yard. I am always afraid that he will be run over again if he doesn't stop it 55 TIE SUNBEAM A cat came to our house about a month ago and has be- come very friendly. All Dynamite does is bother the cat. Even at that they are the best of friends, Almost anytime We look out of the window we can see the cat lying on Dyna mite's back, or playing with him. Just as soon as the dog hears anyone coming he always will start to tease the cat and tries to make us think he doesn't like the cat. The other afternoon I was out of doors burning grass, I went to the little pond behind our house to get some wat er and I was fooling with Dynamite -on the way. I had reached the edge of the pond and had just got the pail of water when Dynamite ran into me and I just simply lost my balance, so I received a little bath from one pail of cold water. My father had just turned around as I fell down and, of course, he thought that it was very funny, but I did not think it was funny, I thought it was rather wet I think Dynamite was a little bit damp as well as I. Dynamite has some good points, but he also has ver many bad points. Even so, I think he is a swell dog. have to remember that after gall he is Dynamite . Y I I Constance Smith 'QQ WITH REGRETS I come home in the evening, hungry and tired, My eyes seeing visions before me- The hot, welcome supper, the soft easy chair, All the things they will place there before me. .

A Short Treatise of an Ancient Art every fairy tale shall be- UOnce upon a time.HSince I am far inferior to my fellow-men, I cannot consider myself one to meddle with the-fates, so I shall begin my tale. It is pre-determined that gin with the four magical words, Once upon a time when the world was young and the HGenus Homov-was yet younger, there lived a young man, Oog- led, and his maiden, Ooglsie. As is common among man-Kind, and as is to be expected between young men and young womeng these two were attracted to one another by some strange , unexplainable magnetism which the savants of the ancient day termed Nloveu, which is the same as amour, affection to a great extent,' or in modern phraseology, Wchichery-chicK-- cha-la-cha-lan. Oogled and Ooglsie were often to be seen engaged in love-making. Hardly a day passed but some- one found them throwing soft boulders at each other, or patting each other's cheeks with their stone hammers. It was even rumoured that once Ooglsie took her beloved into her cave one day and that her f ther planted a newly--sharpened spear just behind the front of Oogledfs new dincssaur-cloth breech es. The rumour went on to say that Ooglsie found poor Oog- led out in the swamps and saved him from death with a band- aid, His mother sent his rubbers along so that he would not catch cold. From then on, our hero made love to his beauty during school hours only. ' Our amoroso was not only a gallant lover but also a reknowned athlete. He could run faster than a neohippus, swim farther than a hesperornis, and was Known to have even caught several pterodactyls while they were in flight.

Upon exciting game one of were riding broke, a While others were en- gaged in repairing the wheel our hero and heroine fell to their sportive courtship in the usual manner,'that is, with rocks, hammers, and cudgels. At last they became exhausted and Oogled called quits. It may have been that his head hurt from the forty-pound rock that Ooglsie dropped on him when he had her Nup-aetreen, but I doubt that because it was said that he had a head like cast-iron. As they were walking back to the cart Oogled grasped Ooglsie by the farm and did something unusual. He tore out several big hand- 35 THE SUNBEAM - fuls of hair so as to bare the back of her neck. He placed his lips to the favored spot, and after a beautiful bit of Wpuckeringwupn, blew out with all the force that was in his being, The effect was unimaginable and the sound indescriba able. Ooglsie is quoted as having said,' NOh, myln Oogled repeated this performance time and again, and each time Oog lsie seemed more pleased than before. This sudden show of gentle affection amazed her. She told about it at the semi centennial meeting of the WCavenladies Sewing Club and Con- ference'CircleH, which met every week. The love-act caught on like wild-fire. It was not at all unusual to see a bald headed woman on the streets. The act was repeated through- out the world and, with certain modifications, has been handed down to the present day where it enjoys more popular ity than ever before as the kiss!

His hand ran into his pocket His fingers ran onto a book, He closed his eyes for a moment And forgot he had a book. He seemed to be in a meadow 4 He tossed a fly into the brook, The largest trout he had ever seen Took line, sinker, and hook! Great pride now ran thru his system The fish was easy to lure, T So after a minute of playing He tossed the game toward the shore. Oh! it had hit a young lady She threw his book into his lap And Wasn't he disgusted to find This had all taken place in his nap! George Burnham '50 36 THE SUNBEAM My Most Interesting Experience As my sister and I would walk to school and home each night and morning, 'we would run past the deserted house be- cause we were afraid of ghosts. That was what all the neigh- bors said, HThat house is where all the ghosts live.N There a man had hanged himself from the rafters, and another man was drowned in the well. One dark night on the way home from a party we saw a light shining in one of the windows, and curiously we decid- ed to walk up the drive-way when we heard a woman scream and then a man laugh. We fled in a hurry and ran the rest of the way home. The next afternoon we went out to investigate the ghost house. This time my sister with a Knife climbed in the win- dow first, and I 'with a huge club and a gun followed very cautioulyo First, we went upstairs to look around to see what had been going on in the ghost house, as the neighbors called it. We found a furnished room, on the floor were some papers and on a desk in one corner was a typewriter and notes signed with different names. In another corner was a victrola and some old records. ' All of a sudden, as we were looking around, we heard someone else in the room. As I was about to say some thing we heard someone behind us say, UHunds up, you girls, and turn aroundn. We did, and to our amazement there stood a tal handsome men who was already to burst out laughing as our faces were white as sheets. When we realized our plight we immediately burst out laughing too. Then we started to ask him questions and he had an answer for every one. He told us he was an author and in order to write a mystery story he had to have sound effects to put him in the mood to write a good mystery story. The woman's shrieks and the horrible laughterahad given him a greet idea for a story start the New Year. That night we walked home very proudly as we had con- quered, nThe Ghost in the Valley,V We told all the neigh- bors about our investigations. Every night and morninggo- ing and' coming to school we thought how brave we were to have conquered the ghost. That is the most interestingex- perience I have ever had, Frances Huff 'LQ 37 - THE SUNBEAM Disillusion Plus . Alice was in her room, going to great lenghts in decid- ing what to wear. This was a very special occasion for hcr You see, this was her first date with that super-looking fellow that had just moved into town, All the girls had gone wild over him when they first 'saw him. And to think that Tommy had asked her, alice, to go to the movies with him! It was really more than she had hoped for. ' She took her lavender dress from the closet and put it on, After critically surveying herself in the mirror, sho took the dress off and put it back in the closet. Trying on two other dresses with the same results, she finally chose a soft rose colored one with narrow rose ruffles all around the neckline. That seemed to meet with her approval. Then came the painful task of doing her hair. She did n't want to do it the same way as she was in the habit of doing it. She wanted to look Vextra nicen. After brushing it for a few minutes, she decided to let it wave softly all around her face. She added the finishing touches to her wardrobe and asked for her mother's opinion on how she looked. Her moth- er said that she thought Alice had dressed up too much for just a date to the movies. Alice said that her mother njust didn't understand.N When her mother asked if Alice was come ing down stairs to wait for Tommy, Alice replied, WOh, noi' I don't want him to know that I got ready fifteen minutes before the time he was coming. That isn't wise. You'll entertain him a few minutes after he arrives, won't you, Mumsy?N With that she opened a book and pretended to read After ten minutes of wondering whether he was coming or not, she heard the door-bell ring. She wanted to go then right down and open the door, but thought better of it. She ought to keep him waiting for a little while. She surveyed herself once more, ipushing this little spear of hair in place and smoothing out that little wrink- le in her dress. Finally, she opened the door and started down stairs. Her mind went racing ahead of her, imagining how Tommy was going to look, and thinking of the wonderful evening that was ahead of her. She could hear Tommy talk ing to her mother and was very proud of his big, masculine voice. She was fairly walking on air by the time she had come to the foot of the stairs and had turned to enter the room. Little did she know now soon she was going to come back to earth again. 38 There was Tommy, lo imagined. And there bes year old sister. All of ning went crumbling to the ground.

Not only the village folk but al- so people from neighboring towns were present, drawn there by the events of the past two days, a farmer's fair given by the Grange and climaxed each night by an old-fashioned country dance. . Snappy music made by a piano and several violins was drawing couples on to the dance floor. On the platform stood Uncle Ebenezer Prout calling off the dances. He was a man in his late thirties of average height and weight, and of a rather sandy complexion. He was one of those pe- culiar characters found in practically every country vil- lage. His speech, which had a slight impediment plus a lisp, was the cause of much merriment among both the old and young. When Uncle Ebenezer, who lived alone, had arrived home from the first night's dance, he had discovered that some- body had tapped his barrel of not too young cider and had used his teakettle to carry the cider away. While working around the Grange Hall the following day, he discovered his teakettle hidden in a clump of bushes. He then came to the conclusion that somebody at the dance had done it and talk- ing it over with Reubin Perkins, master of the Grange, he got Reubin to promise to apprehend the culprits that night. As the dance progressed, Reubin with his brother Eben and a couple other young fellows slipped quietly from the hall and stationed themselves where they could see anyone leaving in the direction of Uncle Ebenezer's house. Soon their watchfulness was rewarded for they saw half a dozen 'teen age boys start down the road.There was no doubt as to their destination since they were talking among themselves loud enough to be heard by Reubin and the others. They were laughing and joking about how they IQFX gag would lower Uncle Ebenezer's cider bar- ,i:4, ,Maid rel and wondering if he had found his f-igf ,'lXH teakettle. ' Qilngq 3?F:j1 ..1,, - -,E-,Z -rx: .Q I. p VI' ,IJ After the boys were out of hearing lrFlP! gfwimw 'tt' distance, Reubin and his party hurried 5 TL?b w, - back to the dance hall. They got into ATB' ,fi-' a car belonging to one of the boys in iid? the group and drove by a different road ,s , rfN in order to get to Uncle Ebenezer's house before the boys did. They parked their car at a safe distance out of sight and hid themselves in some lilac bushes near the house to await the coming of the marauders. 40 THE SUNBEAM About ten minutes had elapsed when they heard the boys com- ing. Now was the time to watch them very closely so as to catch them red-handed. - The boys walked up'm:the outside cellar door and jerk- ed it open, not seeming to care whether it broke the,hinges or not, Then the boys all made their way down stairs. Know- ing that Uncle Ebenezer lived alone and that he was away, they weren't careful about being quiet. - Meanwhile Reubhmhad sent his brother Eben to the near- est telephone where he called Uncle Ebenezer out of the dance hall to come rescue his cider. Soon Reubin saw the headlights of a car coming and knew that Uncle Ebenezer was close at hand. He ran forward and closed the cellar doors, trapping the victims in the cellar, and shouting, NWe've caught them, Uncle Ebenezer, right in the act.n The trapped boys were then heard making their way up the inside cellar stairs. Thinking they might escape that way, Uncle Ebenezer led the group into the house to ward off their escape, leaving two to guard the outside doors. He spoke to Reubin saying, NGrab dat gun, Reubin, and scoute wite frew the door. We can pit 'em up afterwards an fin out who dey are.N A great scurrying of feet was heard as the boys re- treated as far away from the door as possible. Uncle Ebenezer went outside and opened the cellar doors commanding, UOkay, tome up here one at a time so I tin fine out who you are.N And as the boys appeared on the stairs he helped them out by grabbing hold of their hair and pulling. He.was so angry he wanted to shoot them right there but Reubin per- suaded him to take them to the sheriff, So the group made its way to the general store where it found Silas Doolittle the sheriff, justice of the peace, and owner of the store. Silas was a short, good-natured, man about fifty years of age. What little hair he had was red. Both young and old enjoyed talking to him. After he had heard the whole story, he decided to fine each boy five dollars. Their fines were all paid the next day at noon. Uncle Ebenezer still thinks they should have been punished more than they were.

FROM THE EDITOR At this opportunity I Wish to take time to express my appreciation to the members of the Editorial Staff for faithful and diligent Work on our yearly publication. With out their interest and cooperation in carrying out the. in dividual assignments the completion of this book would not have been possible. They have put in much time in writing the various articles for the book. I also wish to thank the students who were not on the Editorial Staff,but who helped in contributing information for use in the yearbook. Finally, I wish to express my thanks and appreciation to the members of the faculty for the many hours of toil they have put in on the work of The Sunbeam. They have sacrificed much of their valuable time to help us complete our book. 44 THE SUNBEAM DEBTS THE UNITED STATES OWES FROM WORLD WAR II lFirst Prize Legion Es Just what is a debt?

A few ea. The President's goal THE SUNBEAM of 50,000 planes a year has been reached and passed. Gen- eral George C. Marshall in his January report on supplies listed 1,899 liberty ships,746 combatant naval ships,2S,2S6 sub-naval ships, 1,567,940 trucks, and 57,000 tanks. Doubt- less some of these tanks were the General Sherman tanks that helped smash Rommel at El Alamain. The soldiers' own paper, uThe Stars and Stripesn, has nothing but praise for the production front.Its only criticism is of John L. Lewis but even then it admits the miners may have a just griev- ancea 0nly real co-operation between capital and labor could have made such production possible. Meanwhile the farmers of the nation 'have responded nobly, raising not only enough food for the home front and our armed forces, but also enough for large shipments to our allies and the conquered countries. Hand in hand with production is transportation. Except for the valiant service performed by the Merchant Marine, often in the face of very great danger, Stalin never would have said, nwithout American supply we could not have won the war.n General Eisenhower's western front alone uses 3600 tons of ammunition a day, and in his Thanksgiving Day message he called for nmyriadsn more of everything. Those 100,000 tons of bombs the airforce dropped on Germany in October had to be carried across the Atlantic. In fact, according to Lieutenant General Breton Somervell a total of 40,000,000 tons of cargo has been shipped overseas for the army in 1944. The air-transport system has its part to play alsoa' Many things- such as whole blood, which even when packed in Nwet iceu to make the temperature right,will keep only twenty-four days-have to be carried by air to in- sure speedy delivery to far off fronts like the Philippines It is to be hoped that the splendid efforts made- by these people engaged in production and transportation will be repaid by insuring for them steady employment after the war and no lowering of their standard of living in peace time. What a debt we owe to our allies in this war! If Eng- lost the nBattle the United States, as vaded? Unprepared as disastrous. In land been of Londonn,is there anyone who doubts well as Britain, would have been in- we were then, the results might have a speech on November 7, the Russian Fourth of 'July, Stalin stated that Germany had lost 8,590,000 men on the Russian front.

WGl 'G 46 THE SUNBEAM magnificent total. The vivid stories told by war correspondents broadcasters make us realize better than anything endurance and courage of our allies. Elizabeth pictures for us the British bomb shelters and and radio else the May Craig the Paris old Belgium boy who hid in the bushes on a chamber where the French marquis were tortured by the Ger- man Gestapo. Robert St. John tells us of Hoskison, a man blinded during the London blitz who, nevertheless, carried on and developed the new stream-lined, armor-piercing, 12,000 pound nearthquaken bombs, one of which sank the Ger- man battleship uTurpitzn. Watch your own ten-year-old boy trudge off to school or play. Then think of the ten-year river bank near his home and watched the Germans prepare to blow up the last bridge across that river in order to halt the British last advance. Knowing it meant death if he were discovered he slipped down and cut the detonator wires,thus saving the bridge. We are aiding our allies now with Lend Lease supplies of food and armaments. At the conclusion of the war we will help them to stabilize their money, to rebuild their shat- tered homes, and to revive their industries and trade. But how insignificant these efforts at repayment seem compared to the hardships - the nsweat and blood and tearsn - these nations have endured for us. As great as is our debt to the allies, we owe an even greater one to our armed forces. They have bravely, even cheerfully, endured the hardships and suffering of war on many fronts,ranging land to Pacific. To no one from the biting cold of Alaska and Ice- malaria-infested jungles of the South branch of the service can go particular the sultry, credit. Days of artillery barrage preceded the storming of Mt. Cassino. The infantry went first into Metz. Tanks led the way into Leyte Valley. The air force has bombed Munich and Berlin. The navy has softened up many islands of the Pacific before the Marines took over. The first vehicle to be landed in Normandy on NDN Day was a good 'old American Bulldozer of the Construction Battalion. 'A single unarmed plane, piloted by Captain Know Major, Ralph Steakloy, flew from Saipan on the November first reconnaissance mission that made possible the second raid on Tokio. The overall strategy of the commanding officers was tho deciding factor in determining which branch of the armed forces was most important on any special attacking front. The time to start payments on our debts to these brave men is now. The Ameri- can Legion and Veterans of Foreign Wars have made a good beginning by sponsoring the nG.I. Bill of Rightsn. But we must see to it that the plans for rehabilitation are so com prehensive that no returning veteran will be uncared for in his readjustment to civilian life. Morcover,these millions 47 THE SUNBEAM of men will have a great influence politically and socially They will no doubt want a veteran's organization of their own, comprised of the younger generation. It is to he hoped that the old Legion will guide and advise them so that the new Legion will not be led by irresponsible demegogues, but by men of ability and wisdom, inspired by true Americanism, men like Brigadier General Theodore Roosevelt, founder of the first American Legion. Thousands have already paid and thousands more will pay the supreme sacrifice. Let us in the words of Abraham Lincoln, pledge in return uthat from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotiong that this nation under God shall have a new birth of freedom.u This time may it be freedom forever from the scourge of war. It must be more than a mere coincidence that our nas tion is the only one of the larger countries of the world to escape the worst horrors of this war. It is true that we have given freely of materials, money, time, even of life, but our houses have never been damaged by bombs or blitzed to rubble ,as one out of three in England has. Our women and children have never been forced to seek safety in air raid shelters or caves. he part of our mainland has been nscorchedu by invading armies, nor has any part of our population been driven underground or carried away into slavery. A Divine Providence has mercifully spared us, and every thoughtful person must feel that it was for some pre- ordained purpose. The postwar problems are difficult and intricate ones. It will take great foresight and wisdom, free from all greed and selfishness, to solve our domestic problems of reconversion to peacetime pursuits and the re- habilitation of soldiers and defense workers. A real will- ingness to sacrifice our own national interests that all countries may prosper and a super-human understanding of other races and creeds will be required to solve economic and political problems, such as a world monetary system, the use of cartcls, freedom of the air for all nations, boundary disputes, the forms of government to be instituted in foreign countries, the question of colonial policy, and most important of all, the plan for maintaining world peace In past crises God has raised up for our nation, founded as it was on high principles of morality and religion, leaders capable of guiding it through difficult times. If we nfor- get not all His benefitsn and follow His guidance,certainly He will show us the way in this greatest opportunity ever given to any nation, the chance to lead the world into an era of permanent peace. ln this way only can we pay our debts satisfactorily. Keith Whitehouse '46 455 THE SUNBEAM HQRSESHOESg Whiz! whiz! the horseshoes certainly fly through the air. Ifll admit we were pretty rusty and some of us were new to the game of horseshoes, but we finally got down to brass tacks and put 'em in there. Some admitted that we might beat Buxton and some bet we would and vice versa. Then came the day when we had to make our shoes counts That afternoon after school, the Buxton horseshoe players arrived. Some of us were so scared that we shook all over before we stepped into the box, but as soon as we got in there, we made those shoes count--but plenty. In fact,we made 'em count so much that we beat Buxton! The first time in quite a while for the girls, but the boys beat Buxton last year, too. The next day, we went up to Alfred to try out for the cups. It was so cold we shook all over and it wasn't from fright either. Our girls played Cornish but somehow Lady Luck wasn't with us--so Cornish won. Our boys played Water- boro. Was there ever a fight for points! The first game Hollis wong then Waterboro won the next. This kept up for the first four games. The fifth game really counted. The boys were on their toes,' Ringers were slapped on so fast and covered, that I should think the referee would have been all mixed up. Finally Hollis lost a hard fight to Waterboro, Watch out, Waterboro and Cornish, we're a nshoeingn for you. CHECKERS Early in October, one could find the checker-mind- ed students battling with each other at Hollis High. These battles resulted in Stanley Townsend and Rita Burnham win- ning over tho boys and the girls respectively. In behalf of Hollis High School, these representatives were host and hostess to all the other checker players in the C. Y. C. L. in the annual checker tournament, October l9, 1945. The Buxton boy won the boy's titleg and the Cornish girl won the girl's title. The Hollis representatives were following close behind. Chocolate milk was served at sup- per time and the checker players were invited to attend a Hallowe'en party which followed. 49 I QASKH Ban aHorseshoes and checkers, by the first of November, seemed rather small and insignificant to the most of us for we were very deeply interested in the outcome of the basketball team. We had been very fortunate in securing a coach and the use of Limington's gym and with these val- uable assets tried to produce a winning combine. Various shifts in positions among the team finally netted the tight system, and with both the team and the coach working gether, we finally coasted to a fine season. to- Besides capturing third place in the league, we talso secured a berth in the Tri-County Tournament. Team match- ing pitted us against Porter High--Kezar Falls Power-house --who rather gave us quite a beating and who later went on to wallop all other competition. Words cannot be found to express our appreciation to Norman Martin, who so faithfully stuck by the team as coach and helper. What he did for the school and for the team was immeasurable. He was just what the team called I him--swell.

Hollis and Cornish, played the final game, The results were a disappointment to a team whose spirits had been riding high all afternoon - but such is life. After a few minutes the girls' spirits returned to their former heights and everyone came home feeling the day had been a very exciting one. All the girls wish to express their appreciation to alumna Lucille Southwiek who tried to instil in us some of the skill in softball which she herself exhibited in her days as catcher on the Hollis Softball Team. 52 THE SUNBEAM HINTS TO SOFTBALL PLAYERS By Captain Benson I have come to the following conclusion on how to play softball: l. When you perceive a ball coming for you, run as fast as you can, for if you stand there you might catch it, and this is definitely not the oblect of the game. 2. When you're up to bat, if you see a ball come 'across the plate, don't bother with it, you might hit it, but if you see a ball come over your head, reach for it, or if you see one almost rolling on the ground, strike at it. The more strikes you get against yourself, the more help you are to your team, ' 5. If you play short-stop, don't chase after the balls Let anyone else if they want to, but not you, especially if the balls are in your area. Let the pitcher stoop and pick up the balls. It's easier on your back that way. f 4. If you are a pitcher for your team, never put a ball across the plate. If you throw enough balls, you can walk all the players. Or if you want to make it easier for your- self, put one across the plate where the player can hit it good. That way you can rest your arm between pitches. - 5. Here's a hint to the catcher. Get ready to catch all the balls that you are sure the batter will hit, but don't bother with the others. You can stretch your legs. while Walking after the ball. What difference does it make if players of the other team get home? It'll end the game quicker that way - no danger of overtime periods for tied scores! This should be the motto of the softball player: uNever Exert Yourself More Than Necessaryn A TRACK MEET May 22, l946 The twenty-first annual Track Meet was held at Cornish Fair Grounds. Buxton High won the cup with the highest score of 76 points. Hollis took second with 285, Limerick third with l53 Cornish with 9 points was next,followed by waterboro with 45, and Limington with 1. 55 THE SUNBEAM Summary of Events 100 YARD DASH: R.

X fx THE SUNBEAM SQCIALS Our first social was the Freshman Reception which was put on by the Juniors. After they put the Freshmen through their comical paces they served us ice cream and cookies. After refreshments, we played games and danced. Next, came the Hallowe'en Party, which was given by the Seniors. After we traveled through the ghost cellar, we' heard a weird ghost story, and did many other scary things, we had refreshments, which were followed by games. we will never forget Alfred's slimy hands. The Christmas Party was put on by the Student Council. After the little play, we had our Christmas Tree. Fred Smith played the unforgetable role of Santa Claus. When all of the presents had been given out we had ice cream and cook- ies, which were furnished by the teachers. Our Valentine Party was put on by a special group of girls who were appointed by Mrs. Walker. Before and after the Valentines, we played games. Then we had refreshments . Without a doubt Hollis High has many good times and we hope it always will. SPELLHVG Cilfv TES T The C.Y.C.L. Annual Spelling Contest was held on Novemb- er l9, l9b5 at Waterboro, Maine. Seven schools participat- ed in the contest. Of the many spellers in Hollis the four best were chosen. 'These four representatives wereg Carolyn Usher, Rita Burnham, John McKenney, and Harvey Smith. This year the judges used a different method of choosing the winning school. Instead of having the last member to go down, the winner for his school, the school with the small- est number of points is the winner, The first contestant to go down would receive a score of twenty-eight points, there being twenty-eight oontestants,' and the last person to re- main standing would receive a score of one point. Thus the school with the least number of points would win. This meth-. od enables every contestant to help his school. ,- 56 Hollis High Student Council. The Carpenter Family Take Time to Relax . THE SUNBEAM After much spelling the contestants began to drop out one by one until at last one person remained standing.
