These sayings filled the air not only in classes but in our sflttml activities anfl our outside escapades too. There were those pajama parties. espeeially the one all went over to ,laneis at 3:00 A. M. There was the New Years live party. at Laurieis after the Nantucket dance. the time Ralph. Kenny. and Chad invaclerl the Town River in a canoe, the women drivers of the senior class. Bettyis rice breakfast at Nantucket, the Howard High waitresses at Girls' State. the time Ralph bought and ate a whole loaf of bread, Betty's electrical skirts. the boys' pizza parties. the Red Fox after the prom, and Leahis hundred-year-old slip and lxarlvccl-wire entanglements. U lll'll X8 t' the party At all the games there was excitement galore. There was the night the ceiling fell in on the Holbrook game. the way Ralph grits his teeth in football and opens his mouth in basketball, the bus trip to Yarmouth. paying SOC at Wrentham and Yarmouth. the good job Laurie did of coaching the girls' softball team. the tornado at Hulltftmli. the football rallies before every first game. the girls running to wash their ears before their physicals and taking shampoos in the showers before practices. the gossip sessions at the basketball games. the rivalry with Bridgewater and Sumner. how proud we were of our Junior Varsity, and last but far from least. ,lacks no-hitter the night of o.ur prom. Finally, there were the antics in our school activities: the slashes in our beloved play, our decision to charge for the prom, Chad's acrobatics on the step ladder while decorating for the Kick-Off Dance. thinking up names for all our dances. going down 'to the Center when we were in Bridgewater. the poke Joanne got M.C.ing at the Harvest Festival and the Ouch that came over the mike: having a disc jockey for a dance and starting something new in Howard High. Pinkfs suitcase opening So accidentally in the play, the prom queen's escort who didn't get his picture taken. Herbie's nomination spelling twas it Greek?l. Chad and Pinky smoking cigars in the junior class play, the Sock Dances that gave us all cold feet. Joanne and Herbie as disc jockeys, picking up cakes for the cake sale. our wonderful ad solicitors. and that day when the boys invaded the girls' locker room. Yes, into our four years at Howard High, we have crammed a youth-time of just about everything. ,, v I- Q .

The things that we did, the sayings we lived by, the games we fought for, and the studies we slaved over or skipped over . . . these things will crop up in our memory to make us laugh, or think, or grieve all over again many years from now. Right from the beginning when we marched two-by-two in awe and enforced silence up the long driveway to the 4'Cemetery,77 we have walked into anything that promised fun, excitement, or trouble. Even in our junior high years we had fun which we still remember. For how can we forget that class picnic when the boys ate all the cupcakes, and those square dances that we loved so much? As freshmen, we had more experiences. Remember how Jack, Pinky, and Ralphie were called the Big Three because they were as tall as any senior on any of the teams they tried out for? And remember the time some freshmen girls got Neil Manzer benched in one game? Remmber how thrilled we were over our classemblems and how indignant when all the other classes adopted our freshman class song? Remember the excitement of Pinky's pitching a no-hitter . . . as a freshman? But, into the last three years, we have packed some of almost everything. Both in and out of school, there were things happening. During school and classes, we mixed fun and figuring time and time again. ln chemistry the three little pencils were usually uhandling some situationf, and their reliable method for solving problems was, '4Y0u probably multiply. lt didn't work the day the thistle tube got blown up into the ceiling, though. The due effects of the Sturbridge trip, with its break-ups, quarrels, and new steadies, are still evident. Then there was the class trip when four girls got separated, accidentally on purpose, from the rest. And remember all the others: the struggles with Mr. Kiernan, the P.A. system, in the office, Mr. Hawkes' white hairs from the Driver Education class, the senior study table in seventh period study, the wooden tags for passes at Bridgewater Junior High, the newspaper drive that could start at any time in the lockers, the senior tables in the cafeteria 4Pass the salt, please -and-Happy Birthday to youll patching football uniforms in Mrs. Viens' room, and the dogs that wanted an education so badly. Of course there were things like: '6The Rime of the Ancient Mariner, typing papers that were hardly ever without at least one mistake, triangles that were either isoceles or right or something else, The Tale of Two Cities,'7 and books that wouldnit balance. But, boy! There was more than that education going on l Mixed in with class discussions were our many current sayings and all those familiar quotes: Ralph's fenirnine,'-Pinkyls MI must say it's rather chawed tchaudb in here?-Bettyls choo,'-Joanne's nMay I have your attention please? -lVlarilyn's Shall l pass, Joanne? -Mr. Moss's Do you think you see what I mean? Are there any questions?'l-Sally's g'Hallelujah!,, that knocked the junior and senior rows over
