EVELYN ATKINSON Good temper is like a sunny day; It sheds its brightness everywhere.

She is also one of few who can do excellent and much admired needlework. SALLY ATKINSON Forward and frolic glee was there, The will to do, the soul to dare.

GCIlOOIflC KS I5 AMERICA’S DUTY TO D. P.’s by LLEWELLYN CHADBOURNE Picture if you will a Displaced Persons ' camp in Europe. Long rows of plain barracks, sheltering thousands of people from all over the continent torn from their homes by man ' s inhumanity to man. Let us take a closer look. We see small flower gardens and rocks bordering the muddy paths. They live from one day to the next. They have no jobs and are dependent entirely upon the United States and other countries for the neces- sities of life. Thus you see how the D. P. ' s in Europe live. No jobs, no real homes, and many have no families. There are hundreds of thousands of them in these camps. Their only assets are steady meals and a roof over their heads. What is our duty towards them? What should be done for them? What can be done? What is being done? These ore questions that people all over the world are asking. First what is our duty to these unfortunates? We are the richest country in the world. We can afford to find homes and jobs for these D. P. ' s. We shall have to. All too many of the other countries are war-torn and wrecked. With a surplus of man-power they can hardly find homes and jobs for thousands of D. P. ' s when the situation is critical enough without them. In spite of this a few countries have taken in some of the D. P. ' s. Sweden has volunteered to care for one- half of the blind D. P. ' s. Lodged in remodeled hotels and resorts, they will do their best to support themselves with handiwork and crafts. Great Britain, France, and Belgium have taken in a number of miners, mechanics, and artisans. But the number taken in compared with those left, is comparatively few. But what of those that are left, the doctors, lawyers, bankers, clerks, accountants? And there are the hard- core D. P. ' s , the cripples, amputees, and those with no useful trade. These are the greatest problems of those who are to decide the fate of the D. P. ' s. Part of this problem was attacked by Congress in 1948 when it passed the Displaced Persons Bill of that year. A quota of 205,000 was set up and a number of other restrictions and provisions were included. The most un- just provision was the so-called cut-off date. This stated that nobody would be eligible for entrance to the United States who hadn ' t entered a D P. camp before December 22, 1945. This meant that hundreds of people who had given up all they had to escape from Russian dominated territory would be denied entrance to the United States. Another unjust restriction was that that required 30% of all entering D. P. ' s to be farmers, and 40% to be from Russian annexed territory. There weren ' t that many in the camps. Thus only a few could enter. While these restrictions were unjust there was one very good section to help both ourselves and the D. P. ' s. This section was in four parts; one, that the D. P. should have a job waiting for him that wouldn ' t deprive anyone here of one; two, that he should also have a home waiting; three, that his transportation be completely arranged for beforehand; and four, that assurance would be forth- coming that the D. P. would not become a public charge. This guards the D. P. by assuring him that he shall have a job and home waiting for him and that he doesn ' t have to worry about his transportation. It guards us by guaranteeing that no one will be deprived of a home or a job by a D. P. and that the latter won ' t become a public burden. Under this quota and these restrictions, well over 40,000 D. P. ' s have entered this country. Then urged on by the support of the people and the desire of Presi- 15 dent Truman, legislation was started early in 1950 for a new Displaced Persons Bill to remove restrictions and increase the quota. Early in April the bill was passed. There was a con- siderable amount of debate but only over a few of the minor provisions. All of Congress was for admitting more D. P. ' s and removing some of the restrictions. In this new bill the quota was raised from 205,000 to 359,000. The restriction of 30% farmers and 40% from the Baltic States and Russian annexed territory was dropped. But best of all the cut-off date was changed from Decem- ber 22, 1945 to January 1, 1950. Thousands who have fled the horror of Communism are now eligible to enter the United States. The four provisions requiring assur- ances as to homes, jobs, and transportation etc, are re- tained as they should be. The voting on the passage of the bill shows that the desire to help D. P. ' s is not restricted to one party. The numbers of those for and against the bill were equally divided between Republicans and Democrats. Our belief that freedom is the right of all people regardless of race, creed, or color is again forcefully demonstrated by this act. Freedom and liberty have been the watchwords of our country since its birth one hundred and seventy-four years ago. Our actions in the American Revolution, the Monroe Doctrine, and the Spanish-Ameri- can War are all concrete demonstrations of our love of liberty for ourselves and others. The passage of this bill and the taking in of these unfortunates and helping them back to the right of life, liberty and the pursuit of hap- piness should measure up with our other deeds and for- ever be a milestone on the road to liberty. AS AMERICA SEES D. P.’s by KATHLEEN LANG The first boatload of Displaced Persons and Refugees landed in America on the twenty-first of December, 1620; some one hundred men, women, and children of humble means and simple crafts. They were not the first colonists here, but they are the most venerated in our history, because they were the first persons who had been displaced by political oppression and made fugitives by religious persecution, and thus remain a symbol of the United States of America. America was populated by Europeans who came to the New World in search of freedom: religious, political, and economic freedom. The famine in Ireland in 1840, which caused the death of thousands from privation, led many to leave the Emerald Isle and embark for America. The Irish were ambitious, especially for their children, and today we find many of their heirs filling political offices and other positions of importance. At about the same time as the famine in Ireland the collapse of a revolutionary movement in Germany forced thousands of bold spirits to seek safety in America. These refugees were men and women of lofty ideals. Many of these people from central Europe were university students or graduates, and those who lived from the soil were excellent farmers. Later on we find a surge of immi- grants from the countries of southern Europe; these people brought with them their music and continental customs and have left an indelible impress on our great nation. As we all know, many of these immigrants have be- come famous personalities. Thomas Paine, who was ac- tive in the movement for independence during the Revo- lutionary War, was previously an Englishman. Andrew Jackson, one of our most famous presidents, was born of Irish immigrants. And what would life be like today without the telephone, an invention of Alexander Graham Bell, a native of Scotland. The famous light opera com- poser, Victor Herbert, was an Irish immigrant. Arturo Toscanini, greatest orchestral conductor of this time, is a self-exiled refugee from Italy. Albert Einstein, the famous scientist, fled the fascism in Germany. And George Gershwin, composer of Rhapsody in Blue and many other famous selections, was the son of Russian immigrants. Those I have mentioned are only a few of an amazingly large number of displaced persons who have contributed in various ways to American civilization. Today we see the usual aftermaths of war — the blinded, the maimed, and the bereaved, who are, to a certain extent, remembered through government pro- vision. The forgotten ones are the one and a half million people, who according to most reports, are wandering around homeless in Europe — Displaced Persons and Refugees for whom there is no Plymouth Rock. There are obvious humanitarian reasons, in the American tra- dition, for acting in behalf of these suffering people be- fore hope dies with them. Several months ago a group of such homeless persons got their first glimpse of the first woman of the world; it was not until that moment that they realized they were free. Until then is had been a dream that not even the horrible realities of the concentration camps, the torture, and the hopeless feeling of despair, had been able to kill. And as the ship slid by the huge towery symbol of liberty and freedom, the dream was at last a reality. Only a few children, recognizing the statue, raised happy voices; the others stood at the rail clenching it tightly. Some who were very old wept silently, but the eyes of the young were bright with eagerness. And they uttered a silent prayer to God — these people who had some- how managed to survive. 16 But they were only a small number of these people. The Displaced Persons ' Camps in Europe are crowded with more of these poor unfortunates. And American Army officers say that if we don ' t act, if things continue in the present course, it is obvious that the useful and skilled people in these camps will be taken elsewhere. Great Britain has taken 25,000 workers, including many miners; France and Belgium have taken miners also. Norway and Australia invited some with special skills, as well as farmers. Holland got in an early bid for specialists and took 8000 artisans and nurses. A few of these Fluchtlings , as they are called by Germans, have crossed the ocean to Brazil and Venezuela to till the soil. And Norway has unselfishly agreed to care for one half of all blind DP ' s. No one who has seen these people can doubt that we could use them. Many impress you as the kind of people who made this great country what it is today. An investment in Displaced Persons as American citizens of the future would pay us dividends; those with families of bright young children particularly would be suited to life in the United States. There are others. For example, there are still trained nurses in the camps, and American hospitals are in desperate need of nurses and trainees in this field. Employers who have hired these people are highly satisfied with them. Seabrook Farms, Inc. of Bridgeton, New Jersey, has taken far more DP ' s than the average employer. The jobs in which this company has put these workers show their range of usefulness. Says Seabrook ' s personnel manager, H. S. Fistere: ' ' They are eager and willing workers. What makes these people even more valuable is that they have learned to improvise with what they have — the art of making something out of nothing. The fact is, about all they have is their will to work, and most of them make use of that asset — they want to show the world just how hard they can work, because that is the only way they have of winning their way to a normal life somewhere. A rather vociferous minority of our people, however, forgetting that they or their ancestors were once dis- placed persons, harbor many prejudices and misconcep- tions about DP ' s. Some believe that DP ' s who come to this country are a security risk. It may be answered, however, that DP ' s have to face such a rigorous screen- ing before they can enter this country that it hardly seems possible that many security risks will get past that battery. The great majority of Displaced Persons now in Euro- pean camps are refugees from Communist-dominated areas. The International Refugee Organization has made strenuous efforts to get them to return home. They have refused, almost unanimously, and there have been sui- cides among these people who anticipated a forced return to Eastern Europe. The restrictionists deduce from all this that the DP ' s have been sent out of satellite nations with the aim of getting them into the United States as spies. Their argu- ment does not, however, account for the fact that the Russians, in the United Nations and elsewhere, have used all sorts of tactics to have the DP ' s repatriated. There are others that declare that DP ' s are taking jobs and homes away from Americans. The view that a country ' s prosperity is in inverse ratio to the size of its population seems always to turn up during immigra- tion debates. This view assumes that a country ' s goods and services are limited to fixed quantities; it ignores the fact that new arrivals create wealth as well as con- sume it. If it had any truth at all, Israel, which has taken almost twice as many DP ' s as this country, would have gone under long ago. In any case, the argument is un- related to the DP situation. Under the present set up, every DP who comes to this country must have a sponsor over here. The sponsor assures the authorities that the DP has a residence and a job awaiting him. Since many sponsors are relatives, a large percentage of the new comers board with their families instead of competing for apartments. As far as jobs are concerned many of the DP ' s are women and elderly men, and they are not expected to make any impress on the labor market. The C. I. 0., the A. F. of L. ( and the Railway Brotherhoods have all recognized this state of affairs and have agreed that more of these homeless people should be admitted. A few more argue that only the worst of the DP ' s are still in Europe. They maintain that the best of the displaced persons have been skimmed several times over, and that only misfits, degenerates, and criminals remain. Actually there is a group of about 161,000 DP ' s who will be denied resettlement because of serious disease, but that is as far as the matter goes. Several persons who have made an on-the scene check in Europe during the past year, reported that DP ' s had a better record for good behavior than our own United States Army in Germany. If the DP ' s coming over now were really undesirable, one would find it difficult to find sponsors for them. But this is not the case; the Displaced Persons Commission reported that, we have no trouble ... as far as assur- ances are concerned. George Washington ' s words suggesting that this country become more and more a safe and propitious asylum for the misfortunates of other countries, ex- presses what is still the American tradition. We, ourselves, are able to see how much these dis- placed persons are contributing to the culture and life of our country, since many of them have settled in our own or in surrounding communities. From all reports, as future citizens they will be doing America a service to remain here and become, as so many of their prede- cessors in the last three centuries have become, — loyal American citizens, appreciative of the privilege of living in a free country. 17 AS D. P.s SEE AMEHIEA by MARCIA CAVERLY Now that we have heard America ' s opinion of D. P ' s., let ' s consider for a few minutes what D. P. ' s think of us. Sometimes in our concern over our own problems we fail to see the other person ' s point of view. I thought it would be profitable, therefore, to assemble the reactions of D. P. ' s to us and our way of life. The thousands of demoralized refugees, formerly scat- tered helter-skelter over Europe say that in spite of a few difficulties their life is better and happier in America than in the old country. This freedom, in some cases much wider than they had known before, is an abrupt change for these D. P. ' s. Many times it is difficult to become adjusted to the habits of this way of life. In the Hotel Marseille in New York, a haven for D. P. ' s from American Occupied Zones in Europe, there are people who are afraid to venture outside the hotel for fear of the Gestapo. After a meal in the dining room some are found trying to hide bread in their clothing because there may be none tomorrow. Recently the young son of a D. P. family entered a a police station to notify the officers that they were mov- ing into a new home. You don ' t have to tell us, buddy, said an officer. You ' re in America now. Go ahead and move. We hope you enjoy your new home. Simple inci- dents like these happen everyday. While talking with many D. P. ' s I have found that some expected to find better jobs. Houses were imagined large and beautiful. What they found was, perhaps, not exactly the paradise they expected. Some of the homes were not as attractive as their former ones. Furniture, however, is much to their liking, clothes are better and cheaper, and money is more plentiful. The intelligent, skilled D. P. ' s, trained for a job in some specific field, are dissatisfied with farm and servant work. Some, however, do find work as tailors, stone- masons, miners, and lumbermen where there is a labor shortage. Working conditions are not always ideal; in fact, in some Southern states they are deplorable. Some D. P. ' s find it necessary to work in unhealthy conditions for very poor pay. Many costly purchases are made for these D. P. ' s and charged to them — thus putting them in debt and making it impossible for them to release themselves from these intolerable conditions. Several D. P. ' s say that our tempo of life is much faster. The American people do not walk; they run, said one — and we are also too much after the dollar. Also what is more serious; some find a lack of culture and spiritual quality in this country. So much for their dislikes. In answer to the question, What do you like best in America? the responses were quite varied. The children liked especially television, ice cream, corn flakes, movies, skating, and no school on Saturdays. The good food, the eight-hour work day, the money, and the beer are among the preferences of the adults. In Poland during the war there were no good times, no money, and no factory work. When the Polish people were taken to Germany by force, they averaged eighteen hours a day working on farms. The only food was pota- toes and sometimes a little celery and cucumber. Sunday for a few hours, they would go off into the woods to dance and play the violin. When the Americans entered Germany, their former freedom was restored. Here in America they don ' t mind working, for they are not forced to do so. These people are on the whole, happy, thankful, and optimistic in their new freedom. One D. P. at a New Year ' s Eve party, remarked, God love America on this New Year. Another introducing a somber note, said, There are others just like us, still waiting on the other side. In a recent article by Ewald Mand, a D. P. from Estonia, Rev. Mand stated, To be a stranger is a sorrow- ful and depressing experience. To be taken in is a Christian experience to be remembered forever. Rev. Mand gives an account of his family and also writes of some experiences he had before entering this country. He seems to typify the sincere gratitude felt by all D. P. ' s. We are, to them, friendly, light-hearted, gay. They ' re no longer displaced, a North Dakota com- munity writes of D. P. ' s. They ' re in the right place — • they ' re new neighbors. These D. P. ' s, naturally feel the loss of racial and family ties very deeply. However, there is some force which keeps them here in this country, and which inspires them to look forward proudly to citizen- ship, a feeling which Archibald MacLeish has so ably voiced in his poem, It Is a Strange Thing To Be An American . This, this is our land, this is our people. This that is neither a land nor a race. We must reap The wind here in the grass for our souls ' harvest: Here we must eat our salt or our bones starve. Here we must live or live only as shadows. This is our race, we that have none, that have had Neither the old walls nor the voices around us. This is our land, this is our (ancient ground — The raw earth, the mixed bloods and the strangers. The different eyes, the wind, and the heart ' s ch ange. These we will not leave though the old call us. This is our country — earth, our blood, our kind. 18 i ■ in i ism [i by MARY MACKENZIE In September 1945 we, as others before us, approached high school with shaking knees. We renewed old friend- ships and made new ones in the strange halls of I. H. S. Of course, we made the same mistakes as those recounted in past class histories, such as getting into the Study Hall seats the wrong way, going up the wrong stairs, and being caught by Mrs. Lord. But it didn ' t take long to get used to the high school, and soon we got down to business and elected our officers as follows: President, Ernest Nikas; Vice-President, Jean Poirier; Secretary, Ann Robertson; Treasurer, Kay Lang. In the middle of the year we were joined by Sue Bear who came to us from Hamilton. In March we held a social for our class only and found a good deal of hidden talent. Stanley Bolt was the top attraction with his accordion. As early as this, our first year, Mr. Chadbourne recog- nized in Prisby those traits which won for him the title of class girlologist. On day in drawing he remarked that Wolf Prisby seemed to be out with a different girl every night. The days passed quickly and soon our first year at I. H. S. drew to a close. Following the summer of 1946 we again entered the portals of I. H. S., this time as freshmen with a little more assurance. Our class had increased considerably with the girls and boys from Rowley. We were also curious about a certain blonde girl, who seemed to be bubbling over with laughter and friendship. It didn ' t take us long to find out all about her. For Robby , who hailed from Beverly, would make herself well known in any group. We also welcomed a fair-haired boy who even then showed traces of becoming our class blusher. His name was Alan Turner, who came to us from Canton. For every gain, however, there is a loss; we, however, had two: first, Jackie Manzer left us for Florida; then Johnny Wilson moved to Wakefield and was missed greatly by the class. At our second class meeting we elected our new officers as follows: President, Tarshy Nikas; Vice-President, Jean Poirier; Secretary, Mary Mackenzie; Treasurer, Jane Mul- holland. Our class always with a desire to be ahead of the game chose class colors, maroon and white, as freshman instead of waiting for our senior year. Though we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves, not all was fun. We were introduced to Latin, ancient history, Mrs. Lord and her number system. Many a morning found us shaking violently while she slowly pulled out the fateful number. Nevertheless, we had many a pleasant period in Latin Class learning about the latest antics of her grandchildren. We were also introduced this year to the fundamentals of football, basketball, baseball, and the painful art of cheerleading. Another vacation over and with heads high, for we were almost uppelclassmen, we reentered school. Among the new faces were Jenny Lindberg ' s and Thais Bruni ' s. But we missed Stanley Bolt who had moved to Salem. As class officers for this year we elected as President, David Player; Vice-President, Ernest Nikas; Secretary, Mona Gill; Treasurer, Amber Knowles. There were a few veterans of Latin I who ventured back into Mrs. Lord ' s den as we called room 104. It didn ' t take long to realize what a life saver Jean Johnson was, for she and Mrs. Lord has something in common — trips to the mountains. And many a morning found them talking about them while we sat idly by. Speaking of Latin, we had a very successful Latin Club that year and many an enjoyable time including a picnic at Crane ' s Beach. After one of our vacations we returned to school only to find a horrible odor in 204. It took the whole year to wear off. Mr. Moore said there were worse smells, but nobody agreed with him. This was the year also of water pistols filled with strong perfume, Wallace Lane and Paul Lord heading the list of pistol-packing boys. On December 5, we had our class dance which proved to be quite a success, increasing our treasury by thirty dollars. On January 19, we gave our first play, High School Daze, before an assembly. It proved to be quite hilar- ious. We shall never forget the bright color of Kay ' s and Bob ' s faces at the close of the play. They were supposed to kiss and make up, but all they did was make up. Filled with excitement over increasing activities, we again returned to school, only this time as full-fledged upperclassmen. We were joined by a petite dark-haired girl, Ruth Coughlin, who interested us all with her hobby of shell jewelry. As our leaders for this year we chose as President, David Player; Vice-President, Harrison Tenney; Secretary, Charlotte Fryddrych; Treasurer, Amber Knowles. Inci- dentally they did so well that we elected them again for our senior year. In chemistry class Phil Publicover made use of his long legs in pulling the chairs of Jean Johnson, Lorraine Greenleaf, and Amber Knowles out from under them. His legs were put to a better purpose, however, this year on the basketball team. I might add here that a great number of our boys were out for sports and did a good job. We were very much startled when one day Alan Turner brought a little box which contained, he claimed, a Japanese finger sent to him by his brother. After many shrieks and groans we later realized it was his own stuck up through a hole in the bottom of the box. In English in a discussion of hobbies, Steve Marvin proved to have an odd one — math. He showed us many complicated methods and problems which had us all fas- cinated and stumped. This was for us an important year. We received our class rings early and began planning our Junior Prom. It seemed doubtful if we should ever have one because no one seemed to be going. However, after many weeks of planning, the big night arrived. The boys were all dressed up in suits and the girls in many beautiful colored 19 gowns. Roland Russell ' s Orchestra furnished the music and brought a seventeen-year-old vocalist, much to the delight of the girls and anguish of the boys. The whole evening proved successful and to the surprise of everyone a large crowd remained until the end. Although we lost $14.92 we had a good time. At the end of this year we were saddened to learn that Cynthia Raupach would not be with usjin our last year, but was leaving for Arcade, New York. We all missed her gay chatter and merry laughter. The long awaited moment finally arrived, and we marched proudly into chapel and took the prize seats. Thus we began our senior year. There were more new faces among us belonging to Bud Billings, Peter Hawkins, Bill Pescosolido, and Dotty Jackson who had left us previously but whom we were glad to welcome again. Under the leadership of the same officers we quickly got down to the numerous jobh which confronted us. Our first social affair was the senior barn dance held on Halloween Night. Although we took charge, the Booster ' s Club paid for everything. The hall was deco- rated appropriately with witches, cats, grave stones, and a huge spider web covering one door complete with an enormous black spider. This dance was open to all Ips- wich teen-agers and proved a great success. Shortly after this came the Christmas holidays and Senior Day. The Senior French Club entertained at an assembly by presenting The Birds ' Christmas Carol , which launched Phil Publicover on the road to becoming class actor. He played the five-year-old son and though he didn ' t say a word, he had everyone laughing. Then we all dressed up in comfortable kids ' clothes for Senior Day. The most humorous person was Marcia Killam. She wore a Mariner middie , black skirt, striped knee socks, her hair in braids, her old glasses and carried an oversized lollipop. Don Souter proved a very merry Santa. Too bad Mrs. Santa didn ' t sew up his pants before he started, though. Sonny Lane and Bud Billings supplied cider for us all. We also enjoyed dancing after which we all joined hands and marched through the halls, sing- ing Christmas carols. In January we chose Loring as our photographer al- most unanimously. We also decided on caps and gowns without the traditional argument, there being just two against them. We then chose for our D.A.R. Citizenship Girl Marcia Caverly, who was very deserving of the honor. This choice is based on scholastic record and leadership in school activities. Maybe all our activities got us confused or maybe there was another reason why one of our Marcias, Marcia Ready, came to school one Wintry morning with two different shoes on. In March we began preparation for our class play. After a great deal of hard work on the part of the cast. Miss Allen and Miss Blodgett, and Mr. Burgess and Mr. Chadbourne, who co-operated in producing very effective scenery, the Dlay was ready. On March 31, 1950, The Three Bears was presented to a packed hall and met with great success. Harrison Tenney, LLewellyn Chad- bourne, and Phil Publicover starred in the title roles with Mary Mackenzie playing Sylvia Weston, and Kay Lang, Sue Bear, Ernest Nikas, Alan Turner, Russell Davis, and Wimpy, my dog, completing the cast. Immediately following the play, plans were begun for the operetta, Peggy and the Pirate. The leading roles were sung by Bill Pescosolido, Dotty Knowles, Marcia Ready, and Robert MacKay. Thus we bring up to date the activities and events which we want to remember through the years ahead. Tomorrow night we shall graduate and the next night we shall hold our reception. After that each will go his or her own way, and we shall miss the many happy days spent at I.H.S. Some will further their education; others will go to work, but whatever we do we shall never forget the patience and understanding of the faculty throughout these five short years and the lasting friendships we have made. CUSS MMlin TIME: Summer, 1970. CHARACTERS: Jean Johnson and Harrison Tenney. SCENE: A New Hampshire farmhouse. A doorbell is sounded and Harrison answers the door. Jean: Hello! Are you the proprietor of these cabins? Harrison: Yes — Jean: Have you one available for tonight? There are three others waiting in my car outside. Harrison: Yes, of course — right over there. Jean: We h ave come from Ipswich today and we ' re very tired. Harrison: Ipswich? Ipswich, Massachusetts? Jean: W-why yes! Do you know the town? Harrison: I went to high school there. Jean: You did! So did I — I graduated in 1950. Harrison (Gazes into her face): Why you couldn ' t be Jean Johnson, could you? Jean: That ' s exactly who I am! And you ' re Harri- son Tenney! Harrison: Right! Who ' s out in the car waiting? Jean: Sally Landry, Russ Davis, and Llewellyn Chad- bourne. We ' re traveling together on our vacation since we all teach at god old I. H. S. Remember Chad wanted to be a physicist? Well, he ' s gone dow a step — 1 teaches the Lindberg bomb — an invention by one of our classmates, Jenny. Russ teaches history — his old am- bition, and Sally teaches English composition. She be- came an expert from writing such long letters to her sailor friend. 20 Harrison: Say, have you seen this week ' s edition of ' The Lang Journal ' ? Kay wrote a fine editorial on ' How to Stay Beautiful After 40. ' Remember how well she used to edit our ' Cub ' and ' Tiger ' ? Jean: Yes, I read it. Sheila Perley and Marcia Kil- lam had articles, too. Marcia gave some sound advice in her ' Lonely Hearts Column ' to Joe Waz on finding the right girl in his life. You know he ' s still a bachelor. Harrison: I read, too, that Amber Knowles is married after all these years. All the prophecies on her immedi- ate marriage after graduation proved untrue. And Judy Kent and her husband are being congratulated on the arrival of their tenth child. Jean: And speaking of children, Mary Mackenzie and Bob MacKay are the proud parents of a set of twins. Harrison: I also read that ' Tarshy ' Nikas has just settled Rodney Ricker ' s case. ' Rick ' was accused of speeding and running over a pure-bred pheasant that had escaped from Dorothy Perley ' s pheasant farm. Stella Seakas, the courtroom secretary, took down the case, and Marcia Ready, the Ready Detective, was called in. After investigating the case she found the pheasant had been shot, not run over, and the bullet matched a shell in Dick Gwinn ' s possession. Jean: Wow! What a case that was! Ipswich was hot! Thais Bruni was top reporter on that deal. Harrison: Wait, get a load of this! I heard a news bulletin on the radio this morning of a gallant rescue made by Ann Czegka, woman life-saver on Cape Cod. It seems that she heard a weak call for help two miles out and when she had swum to the voice — it was that of Steve Marvin whose boat had capsized while he was haul- ing in a baby whale. She swam back to shore, with Steve under her arm, and an ambulance driven by Alan Turner rushed him to the Benoit Hospital where Carmen and Ann Barrett gently tended to him. When he re- gained consciousness, Sally Atkinson was looking tenderly down at him. She ' s the receptionist at the hospital. Boy, what a feeling he must have had then! Jean: Ha, Ha! Speaking of feeling, I went up on my first airplane flight last spring. What a thrill! Charlotte Frydrych was there to calm me, though, and Bob Paquin was the pilot, so I was safe. On the plane I met ' Bud ' Billings, ' Dot ' Knowles, Jean Poirier, and Monica Kmiec. They ' ve formed a touring troup — ' The Happy Four- some ' — Dot sings, Jean dances, Monica plays, and Bud just looks handsome. Donald Rodger, their manager, told me they were due at the Stork Club right after the world ' s two top comedians, Eddie Murawski and Joe Kisiel had ended their engagement there. As I was sitting in my seat, I noticed an exquisite hairdo in front of me, and when the owner turned her head, I recognized at once the former Evelyn Goodale. I spoke to her, and we had a long conversation in which she told me that her hair had been done by Ann Robertson. Evelyn was on her way to New York to an art exhibition and showed me a portrait she had done of her son. Bob, Jr. for the exhibi- tion. Harrison: Exhibitions remind me that Rose Lee John- son, Ann Robinson, and Jane Mulholland exhibited their thoroughbred palominos at our fair here in Conway last fall. They all won first prize. Remember how tall Phil Publicover was? He was at the same fair putting his pet giraffe through his tricks. Jean: By the way, Johnny Caloggero, who was so very short, is running a shoe store specializing in elevated shoes. He wears some himself and he ' s as tall as Phil, now. Harrison: Alice Burke runs a baby-sitting home, I hear. The rooms are equipped with automatic bottle feeders. Ruth Clements,, Louise Gianakas, and Phyllis Marcaurelle leave their babies there quite often. ' Sonny ' Lane supplies the home with ' XYZ vitamin milk, ' and Ellen Sheehan makes up all the formulas. She has dis- covered a new kind of baby food which she calls ' Mashed Mush Baby Food, ' and it is guaranteed to make nono- genarians out of all who use it. Evelyn Atkinson, Connie Erickson, Lorraine Greenleaf, and Teddy Geanakos take shifts as bookkeepers at the home. Say, whatever be- came of Marcia Caverly? Jean: Oh, she has become president of Bates College and has discovered a new educational system where ev- eryone does all his work in the classroom and has no homework. Remember Pete Hawkins? He won his cov- eted C. P. A. and helps Marcia run the nances of the college. Hank Podmostka teaches the girls basketball and high-jumping and is quite at ease with all of them. Where is Don Souter now? He used to be a rugged foot- ball player. Harrison: Oh, he and ' Red ' St. Laurent have formed a partnership and are piano movers. Just last week they moved President ' Dyna ' Player ' s baby grand from the first floor to the fourth floor of the White House. Dor- othy Jackson and Walter Prisby witnessed the scene — they are Representatives in Congress, you know. Wally always used to get along with people — especially girls. The women ' s vote brought him in by a landslide. Women sure are getting control of things! Did you know that Ruthie Coughlin and Ann Spencer are President Player ' s confidential and most trusted advisers, and if it weren ' t for them, the President would lose his job and the whole country would fold up? Jean: Also in Washington, I heard Arthur Hills has submitted a new plan for soil conservation, and they say it will go over big. Harrison: Sue Bear is up in the agricultural world, too. She raises a new flower — the striped, star zinnia. Only she and Charlotte Stone know how to raise these flowers, but Sue keeps Charlotte locked up in a closet so she won ' t let the secret out. Do you know where Chris- tine Sotiropoulos and Jeanne Sheppard are now? Jean: Yes, they run a dress shop just outside of town about two miles from here. Margaret Hills is dressmaker and head seamstress for them. The other day I met Jeanne and she laughingly told me that Alex 1 Szurpicki was in the other day ordering dresses for his daughter, Ann. He was able to buy six because he discovered an oil well in his back yard two years ago. While he and John Willey were experimenting with the oil, some of it spurted on their hair and slicked it in place. This gave them an idea which they patented. The first company to use the hair tonic was Galanis, Conley, and Camplese, Inc., the top barbers in the country. Harrison: Speaking of oil, I must fill the oil bottle for the stove in your cabin. Jean: Thanks, I ' ll get the other three and our bag- gage and we ' ll meet at the cabin. We can all have a jolly time this evening continuing our reminiscences. GIFTS ¥C GUTS BY ERNEST NIKAS AND DONALD SOUTER Ernest: Whoa! boy, this is far enough. These things are getting heavy. Donald: Suits me. Now I believe in miracles. I thought we would never never get these gifts. Ernest: Same here, but that rummage sale sure saved our hides. I told you that old chest would come in handy. Donald: You bet, and it did hold a treasure, only not quite what we expected. It sure solved half of our problems. Ernest: Well, let ' s unload and get these gifts passed out. Donald: For a start, how about this autographed pic- ture of Alan Ladd for Evelyn Atkinson; I ' m sure she ' d appreciate it. Ernest: Before we go any farther, we have a pleasant threesome in Charlotte Frydrych, Carmen Benoit, and Dotty Jackson, who aspire to be nurses. For these three I ' m sure these thermometers will help them take a step in the right direction. Donald: Alice Burke is always seen wheeling baby carriages around; I thought she might l ike one of her own and go into business. Ernest: They tell me Sally Atkinson wants to be an airline hostess; so I got her this little plane to practice on. Donald: Since Ann Barrett has access to a big black Buick, I got her an instruction license book to use when she finally induces Alex to teach her how to drive. Ernest: I think Susie Bear might be interested in this edition of the Harvard ' Crimson ' . Donald: Speaking of books. Gene Autry has a book out on how to yodel, which I think Thais Bruni would en- joy. Ernest: I hear Ruth Clements is starting a hope chest, and this cookbook could come in handy. They always said that ' The way to a man ' s heart is through his stomach ' . Donald: Yes, and Marcia Caverly could use this sailor to keep her company when the fleet ' s not in. Ernest: To ' Teddy ' Geanakos, I am giving this rubber car, on which there can be no dented fenders. Donald: Since Ann Czegka has a mania for life- guards, I got her an autograph of one. Ernest: For Louise Gianakas, this dish towel ought to serve its purpose while she works in Janice ' s. Donald: This trumpet is for Connie Erickson, straight from Harry James ' Band. Ernest: ' An apple a day keeps the doctor away ' , and what could be more fitting for Hugh Coughlin, who is going to be a dietician? Donald: Evelyn Goodale, who plans to get married, this dishcloth will, of course, serve its purpose. Ernest: I picked up this medical dictionary for Lor- raine Greenleaf who wants to be a medical secretary. Donald: I ' m sure Jean Johnson will have use for this book of poetry, when she becomes an English teacher. Ernest: For Jenny Linberg, this sheet of song music to add to her repertoire. Donald: Here is a comb for Christine Sotiropoulos to keep her hair as neat as ever. Ernest: Being the class boyologist, Marcia Killam should have no trouble putting this lasso to good use. Donald: Since Don Hovey seems to be a permanent fixture at the First National, I got this deed to the build- ing for Amber Knowles, so we ' ll know who ' s boss? Ernest: For Kay Lang, who is ambitious to be a sec- retary, I ' m sure this pencil and notebook will be usable. Donald: I ' m sure Judy Kent will appreciate this Rol- lie-ing pin. ' Ernest: This curler is for Marcia Ready, a must for every hairdresser. Donald: This airmail stamp ought to speed up Sheila Perley ' s letters to Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall. Ernest: Who ' s this package of Herbert Tarrington ' s for? Oh! I know, Ann Robinson. Donald: This pencil sharpener will be useful to Ann Robertson in the office, in case of emergency. Ernest: This pickup truck ought to do the trick when Jane Mulholland is stuck without a car. Donald: This alarm clock ought to be useful for Ellen Sheehan, who hopes to be a farmer ' s wife someday. Ernest: This bottle of pills is for Sally Landry, so she won ' t get seasick when the fleet ' s in, or homesick when it isn ' t. Donald: Being the best dressed girl in the class, Stella Seakas could use this fashion magazine. Ernest: Since Mary Mackenzie is such an ardent horse lover, this one ought to keep her company while she is in college. Donald: Speaking of horses, Rose Lee Johnson ought to enjoy this new saddle. Ernest: Phyllis Marcaurelle, who is always seen wash- ing dishes, will find some use for this Ivory Snow. Donald: To Dotty Perley, I give this box of aspirin, to help her get rid of all the headaches she had while being business manager of the Tiger. Ernest: This saxophone ought to prove worthwhile for Charlotte Stone, and who knows? Johnny might even play it for her. Donald: This clarinet is for Margaret Hills, to hold in reserve if anything should go wrong with her present one. Ernest: A quart of milk from Lane ' s Dairy farm is just the thing for Dotty Knowles.

Ernest: That goes for me, too. 22 (tins it im THAIS BRUNI AND The boys in our class are quite a tease And now at the end of the year; To pay them back for their pranks and jokes Our chance at last is here. Cedric Billings: Bud is quite the lady ' s man They stick to him like glue; (Play money) If one should ever go astray This money should bring her back to you. John Caloggero: Mousy is our little one We like him just that small; (Big cigar) If he keeps smoking this big cigar He will never ever grow tall. Albert Camplese: You never are complaining That ' s why we like you . . . lots. (Penny) But we wonder what you really think; Here ' s a penny for your thoughts. Llewellyn Chadbourne: Llewellyn aims to join the fleet And sail the Seven Seas, Water wings) Just in case his ship should sink He can keep afloat with these. Robert Conley: Your trombone really gets quite hot When you ploy the iazz and swing. (Potholders) We don ' t want you to burn yourself; Potholders would be just the thing. Russell Davis: (Wolf whistle) Andrew Galanis: (Soop boxes) Though Russell seems so innocent, He sure nuff gets around; This wolf whistle will be handy To warn the girls — by sound. You say you hate washing dishes. Well I bet I know just why You haven ' t found the ideal soap So here ' s some you can try. Richard Gwinn: (Mouse in trap) Peter Hawkins: (Dumbbell) You are quite a hunter. So I ' ve heard you say. Well here is something you can prove Never got away. Since Peter likes to study He ' s acquired studious traits; This dumbbell should remind him Of all his old classmates. Arthur Hills: (Roller skates) Joseph Kisiel: (Toy puppy) Arthur lives so far from town He requires transportation; Here ' s a way which will never need Refilling at each station. Joe gets disgusted with women; He says they mess up his life. Therefore we ' ll give him a puppy To live with instead of a wife. Wallace Lane: (Horrible necktie) Stephen Marvin: (Stamp sign) Edward Murawski: (Candy kisses) Ernest Nikas: (Honey) Your collection of sharp neckties Can really knock one ' s eye out. Add this to the others And the girls will really cry out. Steve enjoys collecting stamps; He won ' t have to look for any If he wears this sign around his neck; I ' ll bet his foot ' ll get many. Since Eddie throws cold shoulders To each and every lass. We have for him a luscious kiss From each girl in the class. Since Tarshy can ' t keep a girl friend. And we want his future sunny; We figure he ' ll not go far astray If he uses this sticky honey. AMBER KNOWLES David Player: Dinah dislikes all studies He con ' t get his mind agoing; (Vitamin pill) If he takes this vitamin pill His interest may start showing. Edward Podmostka: 1 In sports you are a wizard, ( .But with girls you ' re sort of slow. (Address book) This address book should give you a boost Toward Cupid and his bow. Jean Poirier: Jean has plenty of rhythm. And doesn ' t keep it mum. (Drum) So he can beat to his heart ' s content. I ' ll give him this little drum. David Poole: Dave works with lots of photographs, He has quite a large collection. (Horrible picture) This photograph should be a change. Because it ' s our own selection. Walter Prisby: We ' ve heard that Wally ' s quite a wolf (Wolf pin) But his howl is most deceiving; This pin will help protect us girls, And will stop his make-believing. Philip Publicover: Whenever Phil should have a date And it comes ot a good night kiss; (Ladder) This ladder should help her reach him So it won ' t end up in a miss. Rodney Ricker: Rick depends upon his truck But some mornings it won ' t start. (Little cart) Now if he has a hauling job He can use t his dependable cart. Donald Rodger: Donnie is quite boshful Often his face gets red. (Turtle) Now he can learn from this turtle How to hide his head. Donald Souter: Don is quite a handsome guy His sense of humor ' s tops; (Lolly pops) His disposition is so sweet It ' s like these lolly-pops. William St. Laurent: Whenever we look at Billy He makes us girls despair; (Bonnet) He ' d better cover up with this bonnet Or we ' re likely to steal his red hoir. Alexander Szurpicki : We know you ' re driving a taxi cab When we hear a whiz and a zoom. (Little horn) If you use this horn we give to you, People ' ll give you plenty of room. Harrison Tenney: An artist, or o farmer. It ' s a problem that is true, (Chicken) So we ' ll start your farm with this chicken And if you wish, paint it, too. Alan Turner: We noticed your jeep doesn ' t have a door (Pillow) And we ' d hate to see you dead; So just in case you ever fall out Here ' s a pillow for your head. Joseph Waz: The woodwork seems to vibrate When Joe lets loose with his laugh- (Muffler) ter; This muffler should deaden the noise And give us peace hereafter. John Willey: John is quite good looking Of course that ' s no disgrace; (Mask) But if he tires of admiring girls This mask will hide his face. These gifts hove made some faces red And others laugh with glee. As long as the boys are still our friends It ' ll please both Thais and me. 23 CLISS UILL Be it remembered that we, the graduating class of 1950, of Ipswich High School, in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, being of sound mind and memory, but knowing the uncertainty of this life, do make this our last will and testament, hereby revoking all wills and testaments by us at anytime heretofore made.

Coach Ernie Dorr giving a pep talk at the half. The fellows went on to win this one. One of the reasons for our team ' s undefeated season. Captain Hank Podmostka going in for a lay up dur- ing the Billerica Game. Final score: Ipswich 31 — Bil- lerica 29. First game of the tournament season, the opener Ip- swich vs. Maynard at Malden High School. This was the closest game of the season, won by only one point. Score Ipswich 38 — Maynard 37.

The 1949 football season, after several weeks of prac- tice under the tutelage of Coach Ernie Dorr and Frank O ' Malley, Jr., started off with a win. This was a 7 to 6 victory over Tewksbury. But then came several defeats including the games with Stoneham, Walpole, Ayer, and, worst of all, Danvers. This means that again the yearly battle between the two towns has been won by Danvers. It has been several years in a row now and Danvers is getting cocky, so now is the time to beat them. How about it, boys? Then came the Johnson game. According to the score- books we won it 1 to 0 by forfeit; however, Ipswich was well on the way to winning it anyway with one touchdown and only a little way to go for another. But after this brief interlude we lost the rest of our games including Dracut and Billerica. When basketball started the Orange and Black entered their golden season of sport. In other words we had an undefeated basketball team. We started the season by defeating Billerica. The Ipswich tide or rather tidal wave had soon covered Newburyport, Danvers, and the entire Cape Ann League. By the end of the season Captain Hank Podmostka had the high scoring crown all sewed up and the team had the League Championship. When the All-Star team was voted upon, it was found that the entire Ipswich first team had been mentioned. Podmostka and Somers were first team forwards, Publicover and Player were second team center and guard respectively, while Nikas and Pescosolido were honorable mentions. Then came the tournament season. Ipswich had en- tered the Small and Medium School Tournament and when we beat Maynard High in the first game we were overjoyed. Then the joy was greater for we beat Malden Vocational to enter the semi-finals. Then came the blow. We lost our first game of the year to Waltham Trade School in the semi-finals. Sorrow that the season was over was quickly dispelled by a bid for the Tech Tourney, the elite of schoolboy tournaments. But we lost the first game to Diman Vocational. They can ' t however, take our undefeated record away. For awhile it seemed that we wouldn ' t be able to have a baseball team because of financial conditions but we have one. At the time of going to press we had lost the first game to Danvers, 7 to 4 and beaten Rockport 2 to 1 . Not bad so far.
