T I O N FRED GRADY ' Mr. Fred Grady, talented musician and beloved bandmaster, was appointed twenty years ago, director of instrumental music in the Holyoke Public Schools. Beginning his musical career in 1895, he advanced steadily. His activities associated him with leading bands in Holyoke and Springfield and with famous orchestras in the theaters of New York City. Always, his genial smile, friendly manner, cooperative spirit, musical skill induced suc- cess. With boys and girls, results were instantaneous. He- organized the Holyoke High School band and orchestra, and all the public school bands throughout the city. He conducted great Music Festivals, and with his band won several prizes at the Eastern States Exposition. Colorful and enlivening, his musicians established lasting reputations, and he himself through his spirited song - Hail, Holyoke High School- merited the esteem of students, alumni, and teachers. All valued his guidance, all praised his accom- plishments. So in recognition of untiring service to Holyoke High School, the Class of 1946 affectionately and appreciatively dedicates this Yearbook. 6 i r , -1-tQa9lg..,-. D E D C A A.

We are fortunate and we are thankful also to have parents and teachers whose prime endeavor has been to preserve and pass on to us the permanent features of education through the chaotic world conditions which have prevailed during our high school years. To our parents we owe a debt of gratitude which words cannot express. From our earliest youth they have instructed us in the American ideals of. love of God and country which three years of high school have nourished and developed in our minds and in our hearts. Every goal that we have reached and every success we have attained reflects the sacrifice, the patience, and the understanding of those who have sponsored our undertaking, our parents and our teachers. We are now ready to take our place in an uncertain world. We fully understand that we, the high school graduates of today, must preserve and guard the peace which has been so dearly won. With this thought in mind, it is reassuring to know that we possess the best possible foundation to undertake the task, This foundation is a good education, and it is for this education that we extend to our principal, Mr. Fitzpatrick, and to all the faculty, our deepest thanks. When we entered Holyoke High School three years ago, this day seemed far distant. But now we have completed this period of our formal training. We are eager to advance to the next phase of our lives, but our eagerness is somewhat dulled when we realize how many friends will be separated when we setforth from this school. For this reason we rejoice in the oppor- tunity to review our three years at Holyoke High School. It is my privilege today to extend to you, in behalf of the members of the class of 1946, a most cordial welcome to our Class Day Exercises. . CLASS HISTORY The class of 1946 has spent its days at Holyoke High and now the end is at hand. We have accomplished the education which was our main objective, and in addition we have made a Hne record for this, the history of the past three years. Let us begin in September of 1943. This was the year we entered Holyoke High as insignificant sophomores. Although we were not as active as our upperclass- men, we did have a chance to display our ability in the Student Government, when members of each section were chosen for the Student Council. The work done by them during the year was excellent. When election of class ofhcers came we thought care- fully about the students capable of filling such an honored position. We were wise in our decision when we chose the following students. Andrew Dougherty, President: Bertha Brackman, Vice President: Claire Sullivan, Secretary: Roy Walker, Treasurer: and Leroy Hyland, Marshall. On November 10, 1943, the entire school was present at the formal dedication of the service flag of Holyoke High. Many of our brothers and sisters were repre- sented here and it was a proud moment for us. December 7, 1943, the second anniversary of Pearl Harbor, found our class successfully doing all we could in promoting the sale of war bonds and stamps. Basketball season was here and Holyoke High's courtmen proved they were destined for fame by win- ning game after game. As a result of their splendid playing they were in line for the New England linals. They were nosed out, however, by Sommerville in a close game with the decision of one hoop. They made all of Holyoke's fans proud of them as well as their coach Mr. Sullivan. Junior Miss , a play given by the Dramatic Club in which many of our class mates contributed their talents, was a tremendous success. For some of us, it was the first chance we had had to display our acting ability. When Color Day came, we all wore the traditional purple and white, and were proud of it, for it dis- tinguished us as members of Holyoke High. Then on June 6, 1944. came the long anticipated D-Day. Regardless of all expectations, the shock was great. Many hearts were heavy that morning, when we went to auditorium to pay tribute to the sons of America who were risking their lives that we might live in a world of peace. Let us pass, now, from our sophomore to junior year. This year saw three changes in the personnel of Holyoke High. Miss Julia Brown, our school nurse, left to serve in the United States Army Nurses' Corps. Miss Muriel Landers, speech teacher, accepted a position as speech director at Northwestern University. Mrs. Manning, our matron retired. They were replaced by Mrs. Senay, Miss Grace Healey and Mrs. Katherine Dowd. Those of our class who had been elected in June 1944 as members of the student council were: Margaret Shea, William Fitzgibbons, and Frank Matuszek. At the September election of cabinet oiiicers, Margaret Shea was elected secretary. Miss Gertrude Griiiin and Mr. Wyatt Harper replaced Miss Anna Gear and Mr. Frederick Mockler as Faculty Advisors for the council. Miss Gear and Mr. Mockler had devoted many years to the Student Council and we deeply appreciated the time and effort given during those years. Class representatives were chosen and they were on their way with an excellent group to work with. This year the council established a Lost and Found department. To those who were forever losing books, pencils, pens, and other numerous articles, this was a God-send. Again we held election of class oliflcers, choosing such capable students as: William Fitzgibbons. President: Dorothy Galary, Vice President: Phyllis Steinbock, Secretary: Donald Cauley, Treasurer: and Leroy Hyland. Marshall. On November 17, 1944, the Big Sister party, which had been omitted in our sophomore yearwas resumed. This was to be something new for us as well as our little sisters. Girls of Holyoke High attended this affair and it was one of the most successful events of the year. Football season was here again. This year our pros- pects were brighter. Under the direction of Coach Arthur Roberts training began. As a result of hard vigorous training the team was ready for its triumphant season. It was one of the most successful seasons in the history of Holyoke High, even though we lost the Western Massachusetts championship to Adams. On December 26, 1944, the annual Senior-Junior Prom was held in the War Memorial Building. The Senior-Junior officers combined in a committee for the dance. Lovely girls in equally lovely gowns added color to the festive occasion, and all attending enjoyed a delightful evening, despite the bad weather. The prom wasn't the only dance of the season. Definitely not ! ! The Student Council Herald dances drew a large group. Fun and frolic was in the air at both dances. The basketball team showed no loss of ability this year, for they received the Valley League champion- ship award and again proved the outstanding athletic skill of Holyoke High. s 1 This year the play given by the Dramatic Club was Plane Crazy. Again many of the class of 46 contributed their time and effort to its production. The play was a great success as usual and there was a full house both nights. An innovation next occurred in the high school. Strangers coming to Holyoke High in need of direction were now to be greeted by receptionists, who were appointed by the Student Council in March. They continued to fulfill their duties throughout the year. Favorable comments were made on the courteous manners of these receptionists. April 13, 1945, is a date clear in the memories of everyone. This was the day our beloved President, Franklin Delano Roosevelt died. A deep feeling of sorrow was prevalent in the hearts of everyone. To us he symbolized all the great men of the world and his death left us stricken with grief. May 8, 1945, such a short time after the death of our President, V-E Day was announced. The man who had strived so hard for this day was not with us. We assembled at Mackenzie Field to give thanks to the Almighty for bringing to an end the European War, and to pray in gratitude for those who had fallen that freedom might live. June was here and we were invited, as a group, to attend the graduation exercises of the class of 45 . This experience was to aid us when our class reached its goal. My but we were impressed by the large group of parents who received their son's diplomas. Little did we know that when we returned as seniors this service was no longer to be held. World War II had ended and when we entered in September of 1945 our minds stirred in retrospect of three years of war. We could never worthily and fittingly appraise this class, whose outstanding war contributions aided in the winning of the peace. Our efforts were not in vain, for the peace which we had strived for was no longer a dream but a reality. This year we were to see many changes pattern. We were seniors and as seniors we had much to do. The Student Council elected cabinet officers, and representatives of sections by their section members were chosen. The officers of the cabinet were: William F itzgibbons, President, Margaret Shea, Vice-President, and Joan Schiebel, Secretary. 'For the first time since the war started the Student Council Convention was held. Representatives of our Student Council attended this convention. The annual Student Council dance was held at the War Memorial building on February 21, 1945. Jimmy Downing's orchestra provided music for dancing and with everyone enjoying a splendid evening, the dance was a success. Miss Lillian Maxfield, Dean of girls, was taken ill late in November and her absence from us was to be for an indefinite period of time. Our wishes for a speedy recovery were extended to her as were our hopes for her return in the near future. Miss Elizabeth O'Hern, head of the Economics Department, was appointed in Miss Maxfield's place, temporarily, that she might give the helpful counsel and guidance we were accus- tomed to. We appreciate the untiring efforts of Miss O'Hern and hope she enjoyed her position, for we think very highly of her. Miss Maxfield returned to us in February. We were pleased to see that she had fully recovered and was back with us to stay. We elected Senior leaders in November, 45 , choosing the following students: James Shea, Presidentg Dorothy Galary, Vice Presidentg Ruth Ann Regan, Secretary, Michael Bolko, Treasurerg and Austin Mulqueeny, Marshall. The 1945 football season saw Co-Captains Andy McCormick and Austin Mulqueeny lead our eleven against powerful New Britain High of Conn. and against Pittsfield, Agawam, Westfield, Adams, Chicopee, Greenheld, Northampton and Springfield Tech. Lack of experience resulted in several defeats throughout the campaign, but the team gained a decisive victory over Northampton High and avenged a 44 football loss by defeating Adams High. These were the only two wins of the year. The Student Council again took the initiative. They were the first to hold a special installation of officers. The president of each class and the cabinet president, took oath of office, as administefed by Mr. Fitzpatrick, our principal. Any inaugural address was given by each of the presidents. We began to wonder whether we were to have an Annual this year. A meeting was called by our princi- pal to choose the staff. We had an excellent group with Thomas Cody, as Editor-in-Chief. Prophets were chosen and the yearbook was on its way toward completion. With the completion of our Yearbook the events shared by the Class of 1946 draw to a close. As we gather together for the last time, at Graduation Ex- ercises, let us look with hope to the future for which we have been preparing since we entered Holyoke High. Take the advice of the American Poet, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow: Look not mournfully into the Past. It comes not back again. Wisely improve the future. lt is thine. Go forth to meet the shadowy future, without fear, and with a manly heart. -RUTH ANN REGAN CLASS WILL We, the class of 1946, of Holyoke High School, City of Holyoke, County of Hampden, Massachusetts, being of sound mind, memory, and judgment, do hereby make and publish this, our last will and testament, and do earnestly desire that these, our last requests, be carried out.

He was graduated from Metcalf School. Now he is graduating from Holyoke High, and will later graduate from college. Lionel has consistently had good marks, due to careful prep- aration of his lessons. Nature revolves but man advances. LORRAINE E. ALACONIS The Rooters' Club has a faithful member in Al. This graduate of the Morgan Junior High possesses a voice which will be well known by telephone users in the future. Our future tele- phone operator is interested in dancing. She knew what to say and when to say it. RAYMOND E. AMEYE . Lucky is a grand fellow, able in his work, -always good natured and friendly. Like many other students he greatly enjoys bowling. Lucky grad- uated from Lawrence Junior High School. After graduating from Holyoke High School he expects to enter the service. We know he will succeed in any field of endeavor. A chip of chance weigheth more than a pound of wit. FRANK C. ANDERS Paco came to us from Lawrence junior High School. He is taking a commercial course and is a member of the Dramatic Club. Frank enjoys basketball, baseball, and swimming. He intends to enter Radio Diction school after receiving his diploma. D It is a fortunate man who knows his place and fits there. JEAN E.

Chuck belongs to the band and is a first class dancer. He claims that he is thinking of going to work after he receives his diploma. Is that another idea you picked up in New York, Chuck? I have gained my experience. fi ii-- FRANCES E. ARCHAMBAULT One of the inspirational writers of this year's Annual, Fran plans to attend business college. She came to us from Perpetual Help School, and since then has belonged to the Rooters' Club and the Luncheon Committee. Strike! is a call often heard when Fran is bowling.

On earth there is nothing great but many in man there is nothing great but mind. J JAN R. ATTINGER It ,-was a sad day for the Joseph Metcalf Junior High when Jan entered the halls of H.H.S. Their loss was our gain. Jan, as pianist, is an asset to the high school orchestra. She is also a member of the band, the Dramatic Club and the Yearbook Staff. Winter nights find Jannie at the skating rink. The gates of every college lie open to anyone with as much ability as Jan possesses. A widespreading hopeful disposition is the best umbrella in this vale of tears. RITA M. AUBIN Roller skating! Did we see her there last night? If you're speaking of Rita, of course.

FOOTBALL Holyoke High opened its l945 football season on Saturday, September 29 against New Britain High of Connecticut. The game was marked by dedicatory exercises in memory of the 90 Holyoke High School students who gave their lives in World War II. The powerful Connecticut team proved too much for in- experienced Holyoke. and we dropped the curtain raiser by a 28-0 count. Our boys then traveled to the Berkshires to meet Pittsfield High. the second opponent on the nine game schedule. Holyoke showed noticeable improvement and outplayed Pittsfield for practically the entire contest. only to lose out by a 7-0 margin. After this game we were faced with the none too pleasant task of meeting the highly touted Agawam High gridders. The Brownies broke loose and llashedall the form which made them one of the lead- ing teams in Western Massachusetts. The hnal score was 28-0. If Westfield, our next adversary thought it had a soft touch it was highly mistaken. The Purple and White. led by Co-Captains Andy McCormick and Austin Mulqueeny pushed the Whip City team all over Mackenzie Field. However, lack of a climax runner. one boy who could break away, put Holyoke's scoring chances on the shelf, and Westheld triumphed 7-0 when Paul Gallo broke away for the only tally of the game. Adams High. one of the two teams to vanquish our '44 football eleven. proved to be the first victim in the 1945 campaign. On the second play of the game, Ray Beaulac broke on his pet play, a- Sweep Left. and jaunted seventy yards for the only score. Howie Burnett kicked the extra point to terminate scoring activities for the day. Filled with spirit after the Adams game, our club looked forward to the next tilt with the traditional rival. Chicopee High. The Skiptowners were enjoying highly successful season, but Coach Roberts and the squad were primed for this game. After four quarters of bruising football neither team had reached paydirt, L I and the game ended in a scoreless tie. The outstanding punting of Billy Morgan gave us three scoring oppor- tunities but we were not able to capitalize on one. Our ever improving forward wall really showed its wares in the next game with Greenheld High, football powerhouse of Western Massachusetts. Fred Wallner, Greenfield's plunging back, who raised havoc with every line he faced, was just another back to Holyoke linemen and was forced to take to the air to account for Greenfield's sizeable gains. Despite the 19-O out- come. Holyoke fans were proud of our front line stalwarts.. Holyoke's biggest victory of the season came on November 17, in Northampton, where Bill Morgan broke away to score twice and Bill Fitzpatrick once for a 20-0 victory over a completely outplayed Hamp eleven. The game was the hest effort of the team as a whole. Our final game, scheduled for Thanksgiving Day with Springfield Tech, was posponed until Saturday. November 24, because of poor weather. The Spring- field team had too much for us in this game and walked- off with a 26--0 victory. Although we did not enjoy a highly successful season in wins and losses, the final record of two victories. six losses, and one tie. can in no way indicate the spirit and light of a team that went out each Saturday and outfought the best teams in Western Massachu- setts.

Despite the fact that Westfield won the Valley League, an honor taken by Holyoke in the four previous seasons, our club was unanimously recognized as the best in Western Mass. and as one of the best in the entire state. As a result of the fine season Holyoke will play in the Eastern States Schol- astic Basketball Tournament to be held at Glens Falls, N. Y., on March 28, 29 and 30. After opening the season with a victory over Spring- field Classical, Holyoke avenged a setback of the pre- vious season by defeating New Haven Commercial 46-27. A game with St. Michael's, the last independent tilt before the start of Valley'League play, resulted in the third win for our team. Turners Falls and North- ampton were the Hrst Valley League foes to feel the wrath of the scoring power of Hugh McGarrity, Capt. Bill Fitzgibbons, Harold Sparky Lyons. Howie Burnett, and Mike Bolko. Both teams were undefeated when Holyoke and Westfield clashed in a crucial Valley League game. With Hugh McGarrity confined to very limited service because of an ankle injury, a scrappy Westfield aggre- gation handed ourcharges their first setback of the season. However, Holyoke High showed its spirit as it came back into the win column with an impressive victory over Springfield Tech followed by triumphs over Chicopee and Sacred Heart. Hugh McGarrity, our towering center, was improving game by game under the watchful eye of Coach William Sullivan and in the Sacred Heart tilt he reached his peak. Hugh tossed 12 baskets and nine fouls for a total of 33 points as we handed our city rival a 55-36 defeat. The second and final setback of the season was suffered at the hands of Greenfield. Capt. Billy Fitzgibbons and Bill Morgan made an heroic effort to pull Holyoke through to victory in this game but Greenfield copped a thrill- ing 40-37 victory. The Holyoke live never left the victory trail after this game racking up a win over Springfield Technical and second round triumphs at the expense of Turners Falls and Northampton. Sweet revenge was Holyoke's when Westheld High came to our gym for the second meeting of the season. Holyoke walked off the floor 'the winner by a 48-31 margin over a completely outclassed Whip City team. Chicopee and Greenfield were the last victims on our schedule but Westfield had clinched the Valley League crown before our final game with Greenfield. 8 Holyoke's varsity was not our only court represen- tative this year. For the first time in several seasons the Holyoke second team engaged in Valley League competition and won 10 straight league games and two independent contests for an excellent 12-0 record. The boys on the seconds this year were Capt. Paul Carey, Raymond Fitzgibbons, Phil Dean, Richie Eger, Jerome Morgan and Red Kenney. Several of these boys will undoubtedly don first team uniforms next year and along with Howie Burnett, Harold Lyons. and Billy Morgan will form the nucleus of another strong Holyoke team. f At the close of the regular season Holyoke received and accepted an invitation to play in the Eastern States Scholastic Tournament at Glens Falls, N. Y. The Glens Falls tourney will see Capt. Bill F itzgibbons Hugh McGarrity, Mike Bolko, Bill Stacy, Jim Happy Bryden, Billy Cauley, and Jim Shea playing their last basketball for Holyoke High. The Yearbook is unable to carry the result of our team's play in the tournament at Glens Falls. So, why not write the result in the space below and thereby have a complete record of the 1945-46 team?

INTRAMURAL BASKETBALL The Intramural Basketball League, under the direc- tion of Mr. Daniel Regan, is enjoying another success- ful season. Sixteen teams made up of about 200 boys are participating in this vital part of our physical education program. Competition and interest have been high since the outset of the league and at this writing the number of championship contenders have been narrowed down but no team in either division has clinched top honors. Section 212 defending champion, is again leading the National League teams and boasts a thin lead over Sections 214 and 208. In the National League, the Sophomore- Freshmen Division, Sections 114 and 110 are tied for first place and when these teams clash a champion may be decided. The winners of the National and American Leagues will meet to determine the kingpin of the Intramural League.

The Valley League was forced to suspend operation for four years because of the transportation ban but this year will function with the regular six teams participating. The other clubs are Chicopee, Westfield, Greenfield, Turners Falls, and Northampton. Four members of last year's team will be back this year. The holdovers are Bill Stacy, captain and star catcher, Bill Fitzgibbons, outfielder, Billy Cauley, shortstop, and Howie Burnett, outfielder-catcher. These boys will form the nucleus of the 1946 nine and Coach Sullivan has his work cut out for him in selecting the rest of the team from the large group of candidates expected to report. The competition will be keen this season, but we feel sure that the 1946 baseball team will successfully defend the laurels garnered by past Holyoke High School diamond representatives.

The club was coached by Frank Reidy, a Holyoke High graduate and a local star. Starting the season with little practice Holyoke de- veloped fast and after a few games performed very creditably against every team it faced. Lionel Chet Stebbins was elected Captain of our sextet and he proved a real leader as he paced the Holyoke scorers and assisted in many tallies. Doc Watson, Frank Armata, Bruce Tait, Jack Barnett and Chuck Hanley aided Stebbins in the point-making department while Al Canova, Dick Herman and Ray Beaulac were HQ C K brilliant on defense. Holyoke received some excellent performance in the nets from goalies Paul Perrault, Henry Gerardo and Dick Walker.

L 'CL 'Si'- 'YK Q ,jg f r M Q c ix, J C ' 3 'L B 1 ff I STUDENT COUNCIL DANCE The class of 1946 can well be proud of its Student Council Dance. Much of the success may be attributed to the Student Council and its competent advisors who originated the unique idea of forming a social committee to publicize the dance. The special task of this committee was to persuade shy boys to indulge in this evening of fun and frolic. , Everybody was in the holiday spirit for two reasons: first, it was the eve of Washington's birthdayg and secondly, ten blissful days of vacation were ahead. A contributing factor to the appearance of excellent dancers was the previous class, which had been spon- sored by the Student Council. At eight o'clock on February 21, the limousines drove up to the War Memorial Building. Many a Cinderella and her Prince Charming stepped forth to be greeted by the echoing strains of Jimmy Downing's orchestra, which predicted many hours of enjoyment. The climax of the evening was the grand march led by Miss Gertrude Grifiin, a member of the Faculty, and William Fitzgibbons, President of the Student Council. ' At eleven o'clock the crowd dispersed, butlater re- assembled to enjoy sandwiches and cokes. We, as seniors, wish to thank Miss Griffin and Mr. Harper for their efforts in making this, our last Student Council Dance, the tremendous social success that it was. X 696 THE BIG SISTER PARTY One of the finest traditions of Holyoke High School is the annual Big Sister Party. Held on an evening early in the school year, it purposes to make the new pupils of the school at home in their new environment. lt's essence is friendliness and earnest eiiort on the part of the upper class girls to make the incoming sophomores and freshmen feel that they belong It is an occasion both for the older girls and the newcomers. We, as seniors, tried last October to make this, our last Big Sister Party , a tremendous success. With the aid of the Student Council under the excellent leadership of Miss Griffin and Mr. Harper every Junior and Senior girl found herself acquiring a little sister. The timely question was, Do you know so-and-so? Before school the latter part of that week there was an influx of big sisters on the Hrst fioor, looking for their partners for the big event. It seemed as though all the girls of Holyoke were gathered outside the Annex at 7:50 the night of the party. As hostesses it was our task to provide the enter- tainment. Looking back upon it now, the skit Wild Nell, the Pet of the Plains, or Her Final Sacrifice was the hit of the evening. lt was one of the features of the entertainment and it certainly brought forth the laughter, Those who helped make it such a success here: Lorraine Cousineau, janet McCormick. Ilelen Cray, Catherine O'Connor, Mary Lou O'Hare, Ann Kirkpatrick, Barbara Blais, Jo Ann Prentiss, and Avis Freyer. Jan Attinger's rendition of the diliicult com- position. Chopin's Polonnaise, tended toward the more serious side and was appreciated by all. Ruth O'Leary, well known to all of us for her lovely voice sang the popular version, Till the End of Time. The humor of Eileen Curran's monologue called for many an encore. Thanks to Miss Ahern and Miss Heffron the refresh- ments were served in an orderly fashion. We were having such a wonderful time that we forgot to look at the clock. When everything was over, it was gratifying to us seniors to hear our guests exclaim. My, isn't High School wonderful! M ..

Howard Burnett, Michael Bolko, James Shea, Dorothy Galary, Bertha Brackman, and Harold Lyons were elected by the students as most capable to manage Student Government for the com- ing school year. And for the second successive year Miss Gertrude Griffin and Mr. Wyatt Harper were selected as the faculty advisors. At the first official meeting of the Student Council Cabinet and the Student Council Section Represen- tatives, the officers of the Council were elected by ballot. With William Fitzgibbons as Preseident, Peggy Shea as Vice President, Joan Scheibel as Secretary, and Mr. Wyatt Harper as the Treasurer, the Council promised a very successful year. For the first time in the history of the school the ofiicers of the Council and the presidents of the four classes were inducted at the same assembly. The Student Council President promised to do his best in the coming year in carrying out all the work connected with the running of the Student Government, and the presidents reported on the projects undertaken by their respective classes. The undertakings already under the jurisdiction of the Student Council were divided among the four classes and the seniors accepted the responsibility of the Revision of the Constitution. The first assembly of the' school year 1945-1946 held under the auspices of the Student Council was the V.J. ceremony. It was a stirring program and set the year off with that new kind of spirit that had been lacking in high schools everywhere since the beginning of the Second World War. Other successful undertakings of the Council included the Red Cross Drive, which far exceeded its quota, and the annual Christmas Seal Drive. The work of the Section Representatives in iilling the Junior American Red Cross boxes with playthings and necessities for 4- ,,, , the underprivileged youngsters of Europe, was another feature of the year's projects. Something new has been added, as the saying goes, for the Student Council sponsored a dancing class with instruction given by Mr. William O'Brien, one of the outstanding dancing teachers of the city. This class boasted a membership of sixty, consisting of pupils from all classes. Also on the list of Senior projects was the supervision of the Social Committee in conjunction with the Sophomore Class. Two very successful events of the social year carried out by these two classes were the Big Sister Party and the Student Council Dance. The Council this year corresponded with many high schools inquiring about projects being carried on in their respective schools. One of these letters was directed to Brocton High School concerning lunchroom affairs. The Student Council supported a Lunehroom Committee composed of thirty pupils of the junior and senior classes. The Committee had a very successful year and completed its duty with the thanks and gratitude of al-l alfected by its work. We were really proud of our Cheer Leaders this year, too, because they turned out at all the sports activities and gave the fullest measure of their energies to their task under the capable leadership of their leader, Bertha Brackman. Here is something else we can be duly proud of, our own H.H.S. was a pioneer in introducing student government in the high schools of Massachusetts for the hrst time since the beginning of the war. This year Cabinet members were selected to take their rightful places at a meeting of the State Organizations Student Councils held at Webster High School, Webster, Mass. All in all, we, the seniors, want to take this oppor- tunity to show our gratitude to the Cabinet, to the Representatives, to Miss Griffin, and to Mr. Harper for ,making our last year at H.H.S. a very happy and successful one because of their expert handling of student government affairs.

A brass quartet heralded the commencement of this program, our last Christmas assemblage at H.H.S. The quartet was comprised of members of Mr. Fred Grady's band. They were: Catherine Ahern, Mary Clinger, David Murphy, and Max Fricke. Then, under the direction of Mr. William E. Holdridge, the A Cappella Choir in its usual imposing manner, rendered three beautiful Christmas selections: The Child Jesus, a Cantata, by Joseph Clokeyg Now the Holy Child ls Born, a Normandy Folk Song: and Sing We All Noel! by York. White Christmas was sung in duet arrangement by Ruth O'Leary, '46, and Jacqueline Bineau, '48. As the surpliced choir took their seats in the dimmed auditorium, the announcer, Mary Lou O'Hare, told us of the setting of the Christmas Play, Why the Chimes Rang, which followed under the always eliective direction of Miss Grace B. Healy, Teacher of Speech in the English Department. Why the Chimes Rang is the story of a poor peasant boy, Holger, who had prayed that he and his brother, Steen, might go to the Cathedral on Christmas live-for a miracle was to occur. It was said by the town folk, that tonight, Christmas Eve, the chimes in the high tower of the Cathedral would ring out glor- iously when a gift, earnestly given, was presented for the glory of God. Holger received his cherished wish and as he, the humble worshipper, coming after so many of the wealthy, gave the priest his few pennies- the chimes pealed forth in triumph melody and the choir sang The Angels Song. written by Lichesnokov. The cast of Why The Chimes Rang is as follows: Holger - Philip Dunn Steen - George Dydek Uncle Bertel - Raymond Morin An Old Woman - June Evans Priest -- James Hanna King -- James Sullivan Monk - Robert Saex Ladies of Winfred Krumpholtz - and the Court Constance Laurin Under the supervision of Mr. Fred Grady, Helaine ,Iudelson played the chimes very effectively. Our own beloved Miss Grace Healy directed this play superbly and had as her assistant, Ann Dowd. The production crew was composed of: Richard Smith - Howard McNally Herbert Lindner Howard Ziff Thomas Sullivan ' Robert Moynihan Edward Sullivan With the echo of the chimes, the lilting voices of the A Cappella Choir, and hushed, reverent tone of the play ringing in our hearts, the Christmas program of 1945 came to an end. Do you remember? The cooperation of students and faculty members, particularly between departments, was never more vividly demonstrated than by the smooth program of the performance from the start to the final curtain. It is only in retrospect that we realize the superlative co-ordination of the contributing talents of students and teachers. As always.. Miss Grace D. Lynn and her pupils worked untiringly on design of setting and cos- tume, Mr. Robert E. Hamill with his crew of husky stage mechanics, fashioned and directed the scenery. Every detail was executed to perfection. And so, we are deeply grateful to our school, not only for giving us such a meaningful Christmas entertainment, but also to the members of our faculty who revealed to us one of the greatest lessons of citizenship, the productive- ness of co-ordinating the talents and energies of those with whom we work, to the common good of the community in which we live. THE SPIRIT OF WILLOW PATTERN PLATE The Spirit of the Willow Pattern Plate was the initial production of the Dramatic Club in our Senior year. It was the first time that most of us had seen a play done in the Chinese manner. The experience was made doubly enjoyable by our seeing five talented classmates in the featured roles. The play was presented in fragments and with very little scenery, leaving much to the imagination. One of the pecularities of the production was the sounding of a gong instead of the usual drawing of the curtain to herald the end of each scene. Helen Cray as Koon-See, and Herbert Lindner as Chang played their parts to orientalperfection. The comic element in the play was furnished by Richard Smith as the mandarin. Walter Griffin, the property man, remained on stage throughout the performance and assisted the actors. The atmosphere for the play was created hy George Chivas' introduction. It is needless to say that the success of the presen- tation was to a great extent due to Miss Healey's able supervision. The play, The Spirit of the Willow Pattern Plate , preceding our Thanksgiving vacation. was the climax of the first ten weeks of our senior year. 4' e 1 I P ? lg cf 5 ss gm M551 Q ii f am Y 'S' 42'-5' E 2 9?
