Sylvia Clerk LAWRENCE HIGH SCHOOL Five Six THE LAWRENCI AN — 1941 A Message To The Senior Class Russell B. Marshall, Principal T HE difference between a wise man and a fool is judgment. Of all the qualities which can be hired in the market place, sound judgment is the scarcest. We are acquiring new experiences all the time, but if they are to improve our judgment, we must interpret them Experience is a very excellent school. Educa- tion is intended as a short cut to the experi- ences of those who have preceded us. Every young person should make the most of his own experiences, of course, but depend for the de- velopment of his individual judgment upon the experiences of all the rest of the world. By making a practice of doing that, he has sufficient material at his command, if he has the average degree of mentality, for developing good judgment. Accurate observation and a broad background of general information must precede the making of sound judgments. High schools and colleges exist primarily for the purpose of affording opportunities for young men and young women to accumulate stores of knowledge which are to be useful to them in life, and by means of which it is hoped they will become better citizens of their community, state, and country. I hope that as you leave Lawrence High School, you will feel that you are taking with you more than just the knowledge gained through your study of the different subjects. It does seem to me that one may possess a great deal of knowledge, but unless this knowledge can be tempered with wisdom, it is of little use to him in the world he lives. Knowledge tempered with wisdom makes it possible for young people to develop sound judgment and common sense. Tact seems to me to be an outgrowth, or better, a combination of common sense and self-restraint. Tact goes around an obstacle in- stead of climbing over it. To have abundant tact is to be endowed with one of the most valuable possessions. While some people seem to be naturally tactful, none may be without a fair share of it. These three important char- acteristics — knowledge, wisdom, and tact — all contribute toward the development of sound judgment. As you leave Lawrence High School, it is my earnest hope that each of you may possess the knowledge of those characteristics so necessary to make sound judgments. It is for each of you to develop yourselves in such a way as to profit by your experiences, and so earnestly desire to achieve that some day you may look back upon a life of achievement. America needs young people of sound judg- ment and high ideals today more than ever before. It is my sincere hope that each of you do possess the stuff that will help you attain success.

Whence these legends and traditions, With the odors of sea shore, With the fog and damp of marshes, With the rise and ebb of tides, With the whispering sea breezes, With their frequent repetitions, And their wild reverberations. As of thunder in the mountains? I should answer, I should tell you — ” T HE Class of ’41 entered Lawrence High School with the same hopes and fears and plans of the many classes which had gone be- fore them. With proud heads held high and eager youthful eyes wide to the mysteries of higher education which surrounded the nine- ty-two classmates, they began their three year journey which was to contribute many happy hours and pleasant memories to their calendar of life. During the first days of our life in L. H. S we elected officers for the rest of the year. Earle Chamberlain was elected President; George Mixer, Vice-President; David Cassick, Secre- tary; and Carleton Collins, Treasurer. Throughout the year we had many represen- tatives on the school teams. Among these were: John Corey, Carlo Pena, Buzzy Collins, and ' Abie” Cohen of the football squad. George Mixer, Buzzy” Collins, Abie” Cohen, John Corey, Carlo Pena, and David Cassick made the boys’ basketball team, while Mary Turner, Norma Peterson, Martha Vincent, Jean Hall and Margaret Carlson made the girls’ squad. Members who joined the Lawrencian staff included Muriel Gediman, Shirley Landers, Priscilla Hildreth, Virginia Rowe, Carol Bar- rows, Patty Berg, Gertrude Atkinson, and Rich- aid Hewins. Norma Peterson, Edna Cole, Virginia Rowe, Priscilla Hildreth, and Muriel Gediman had minor parts in the school’s dramatic produc- tion, Hold Everything.” In the school orchestra, Muriel Gediman and Virginia Rotve represented their class. At the end of the year the class was honored b the Sportsmanship Brotherhood which elected four of our members to their mids , namely; Virginia Rowe, George Mixer, Allen Peterson, and Muriel Gediman. In 1939 we entered Lawrence High as Jun- iors. For class leaders we chose George Mixer and Donald MacQuarrie as President and Vice President respectively; Gertrude Atkinson a. Secretary, and Carleton Collins as Treasurer. George Mixer, David Cassick, Gordon Stew- art, Donald MacQuarrie, Chester Weeks, Har- old Marks, and David Whittemore were among those new names appearing on the gridiron lineup. At the close of the season. George Mixer and John Corey were elected as 1940 co- captains. Jean Hall, Muriel Gediman Martha Vincent, Patty Berg, Norma Peterson, Virginia Rowe, and Mary Fernandes played on the varsity girls hockey team. In June the names of five members of the class — Eunice MacDougall, Patty Berg, Ger- trude Atkinson, Carleton Collins, and fames Harding — were accepted and initiated into the Sportsmanship Brotherhood for the next year. Carol Barrows, Amelia Peters, and Jean Hall constituted the only Junior representatives on the girls’ basketball team; but George Mixer, John Corey, Harold Marks, Allan Williams, Carleton Collins, and Carlo Pena ably filled out the ranks of the boys’ squad. Before our Junior year had come to an end, we sponsored a very successful Spring Dance and chose our class officers for the following year. Muriel Gediman was elected President; Richard Hewins, Vice-President; Gertrude At- kinson, Secretary; and Carleton Collins, Treas- urer. Returning to Lawrence High in September as Seniors, we made many plans for the coming year. Among the results of this planning, we had as our first financial attempt. a three-act comedy, The Charm School,” produced by the Plymouth Players. From the funds raised by this venture we purchased a turn table which provided the music for our three dances as well as many assemblies. Alon with these in- formal dances we also sponsored a mid-Winter Hop and the Annual Senior Prom. Another financial venture in the form of a magician show — Bruce, The Magician also proved very successful Nancy Baker, Catherine Waters, Allan Wil- liams, lames Hardinv, Eunice MacDougall and Mura Booker joined the Senior Lawrencian Staff. Muriel Gediman was Editor-in-chief of the staff and as such she and Miss Arenovski journeyed to New York to attend the Columbia Scholastic Press Association Convention. Twenty-four Virginia Rowe was chosen to represent the class at the D. A. R. convention in Boston. Muriel Gediman attended the National Forensic League Conference as State Represen- tative for the second consecutive year. During the Spring vacation eleven Seniors went on the Washington trip with Miss Sheehan as chaperon. The names of these stu- dents are as follows: Martha Vincent, Jean Hall, Richard Alberts, Abraham Cohen, James Harding, Edward Handy, Anita Manley, Claire Higgins, Eunice MacDougall, Shirley Landers, and L ucille Studley.

At the end of our Senior year the names of the five students maintaining an average of ninety per cent or higher for their three vears were announced, namely: Muriel Gediman, Gertrude Atkinson, Carol Barrows, Margaret Carlson, and James Harding. Gertrude Atkinson and James Harding were chosen to have their names placed on the Smythe Tablet of Honor.

As the year finally came to a close, the Seniors enjoyed their Annual Senior Freak Day on Monday, May 19, 1941. Seniors, under- THE LA WRENCI AN — 194 1 graduates, alumni, and friends of the high school enjoyed a pleasant evening of dancing to Artie Davis’ music at the annual Senior Prom which was held on June 6, at the Cape Codder Hotel. Baccalaureate Service was held at St. Barna- bas Memorial Church on Sunday, June 8. Class Day was June 9, with a class banquet at Handy’s Inn that evening. The class chose as their colors — red and white — its motto — Finished , Yet Beginning” — and the carnation as their flower. On Tuesday evening, June 10, graduation marked the end of school days for many of us, and the beginning of a new life for all. Our Senior year in Lawrence High brought to a close many happy hours which will pro- vide lasting memories throughout our life- time. During these last three years we have had to face many new problems, the solutions of which have helped to prepare us for our life in the modern world. We have also made many new friends among our teachers and fellow students. These friendships not only have proved invaluable during our school days, but they have also given us a firm foundation for future use. To our teachers and friends, who have given us every advantage toward making our high school lives pleasant and successful, we are very grateful and indebted. From the brow of every Senior Gone was every trace of sorrow, As the fog from off the water, As the mist from off the meadow. With a smile of joy and triumph, With a cloak of exultation, As of one who in a vision Sees what is to be. but is not, Departed all the Seniors. And they said, ' Farewell forever!’ Said. ' Farewell, O Laivrence High!’ And the students, sixty -nine in number Moved out through the ancient portals, Sighing, ' Farewell to thee, O Lawrence High!’ ” ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ Joseph Cardeiro, Pvt. F.

Well, I guess that just about covers the material for our Twentieth Anniversary Edition of the Yearbook of the Class of 1941. Now we can send it off to press. LAWRENCE HIGH SCHOOL Twenty-seven Class Will Gertrude Atkinson B E IT EVER REMEMBERED that we, the Class of 1941, of the Lawrence High School of Falmouth, in order to leave behind us a clear and unmarred slate, do hereby make this our last will and testament. During our three years of profound and ex- tensive activity in this academy, we have ac- cumulated a large treasury, the last few pieces of which we tenderly place in the hands of next year’s leaders, with the hope that this small contribution will be but seed for a larger and fuller fund. To the student body as a whole, the class of 1941 leaves the inspiring memories of their great and many accomplishments to stimulate all seniors of the time yet to come to higher and better deeds. To Mr. Marshall, our understanding and patient principal, we leave the thoughts of a class ill-begun but well-finished. Gordon Parker leaves to any donkey com- ing into the ranks of the senior class his loud and boisterous hee-haa.” Muriel Gediman leaves to Lyle Long her speaking ability with the trust the added talent will place LHS in the records of oratorical win- ners. Josephine Fernandes walks off from her posi- tion as head man of the Three Musketeers, leaving her two sisters to carry on without her. Cornelius Spillane leaves to Bernard Cassidy his fiery red crop to brighten up the latter’s topknot a bit. Pat Berg leaves to her sister, Beverly, her talent to start something and not get mixed up in her herself. Bev, it seems, has already made a good start towards that goal. Allen Peterson, who eats and sleeps Lowell Thomas, Raymond Gram Swing, and Bill Cunningham, leaves to Donald Graham his habit of keping up with the times. Helen Nelson and Ginny Rowe, the femin- ine beau catchers” of the Senior Class, leave to Luana Wirick and Pasty Holden their allur- ing charms and manners. Allan Williams leaves to anyone who can- not get along without his after dinner snooze his customary sixth period doze. The point in this is that Mr. Allen, knowing that uncon- scious men do not wisecrack, would rather have Brother” asleep than awake. Earle Chamberlain, Tom Hart, and Norman Cotter, those three flying aces of the Senior Class, leave their high-minded aspirations to Roland Baker and Malcolm Barnes. Martha Vincent bequeaths to Hazel Howell her extensive closet — full of clothes, of course. Marion Lord, a partner in that heavenly sis- terhood, leaves to Eleanor McLaughlin of the flowing tresses her natural wavy hair. David Whittemore, the fellow with the good intentions but the least energy, leaves to Ray Paltz this little rhyme. What’s the use in working. In turning page and page? It’s almost just like being A monkey in a cage. In my three years at L. H. S. I ' ve had only one design. To bid farewell in ’41 And make that parchment mine.” Now to come back to our dear old Kitty. At this point Kitty places her beloved John in the motherly hands of Pat Brown and her henchman, Jeanne Prevost. Remember, Pat and Jeanne, there is only one John, and you really must come to some agreement. Last, but not least, anyway, Donald (Mac) MacQuarrie leaves to John DeRose his well- tra ined technique in hair setting. According to Donald, it always seems to come in handy when you are in the throes of a big English exam, John. With the signatures of the three witnesses to this document, we declare this to be our last will and testament this ninth day of June in the year one thousand nine hundred and forty-one. Witnesses thereof: Popeye - Wimpy - Olive Oyl -Jfe. Twenty-eight THE LAWRENCIAN - 1941 Snapshots by James Harding, LAWRENCE HIGH SCHOOL Twenty-nine Washington Hi-Lights Shirley Landers N OW it can be told! Many of those ex- periences during those thrilling days and nights we spent on that long-awaited trip to Washington, New York, Annapolis, and Shenandoah are recorded in this diary: April 4 5:30 P. M. found our excited little band gathered at the dock in Boston amid towering piles of luggage, frantic chaperons, and hurry- ing porters . . . Finally we were aboard . . . the S. S. Portsmouth drew out of the harbor with a deafening blast of her whistle, and we were on our way . . . Supper aboard ship was a novel experience and a few of our members were mildly seasick . . . The evening was spent in walking the deck, dancing, or playing cards . . . at 9:00 we went through the canal . . . This was marked by much yelling, tooting of horns, and school songs . . . Falmouth was lusty but outnumbered . . . Finally to bed in those cubbyholes they call staterooms ... We were much chagrined to see that our carefully packed clothes looked as if they had been well stirred with a pitchfork. April 5 Early the next morning (5:30 in fact) found our more rugged members hanging over the rail, eager to see the skyline of New York. Breakfast was welcomed by our haggard and hungry group and soon we arrived at the dock where busses awaited us . . . The long but in- teresting bus ride included a ride through the Holland tunnel and glimpses of New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Maryland . . . highlight of the morning was a ferry boat ride across the Delaware . . . luncheon at Maryland was fol- lowed by a visit to Annapolis . . . This was ac- companied by much fluttering of hearts among the girls (all in vain however) . . . The beauti- ful Annapolis Cathedral, the crypt of John Paul Jones, and the enormous swimming pool left a lasting impression in our minds. Avid camera fans snapped many pictures here. At 5:30 we arrived at Hotel Ebbitt, weary but en- thusiastic, and got ready for dinner. The even- ing was spent in various ways — walks, movies, and especially listening to Tommy Dorsey who was playing in Washington attracted everyone. April 6 Rising early, we all piled into our busses for a glimpse of famous Mt. Vernon . . . The beau- tiful lawns and gardens, and especially the marvelous view of the Potomac were soothing to our winter-weary eyes . . . Next we visited the tomb of The Unknown Soldier at Arling- ton National Cemetery . . . awestruck by the solemnity of the scene, we watched the guard as he paced deliberately back and forth, im- passive under the stares of the gaping crowd . . . After lunch we started off once more re- freshed and invigorated ( that is, until we dis- covered that our next stop was the Washing- ton monument). We WALKED up and down . . . We were to regret this in the next few hours when the strain began to show ... To the Ebbitt for dinner . . . Then we visited the Congressional Library, enjoying its beauty and splendor in spite of aching feet . . . Swimming at the Shoreham pool or movies completed our evening. April 7 (Immune to sleep by this time). We were off for the Franciscan Monastery where a guide showed us the religious shrines, imitation cata- combs, and beautiful paintings . . . Here, as everywhere, everyone took pictures and bought souvenirs . . . The F. B. I. provided the next tour of interest . . . Here we saw damning evi- dence of famous murders under glass cases, looked upon the weapons of such notorious criminals as John Dillinger and Pretty Boy’’ Floyd, and examined the finger print files . . . Next to the Bureau of Printing and Engraving where, well-guarded, we looked down upon dazzling sheets of ten dollar bills . . . Workers were nonchalantly counting and piling them in stacks of a hundred . . . The Supreme Court was first on our afternoon program and we were duly impressed by the building where the nine old men” ponder the nation ' s problems . . . The Capitol, of course, was the highlight of the day, with the Senate following a close second . . . We were allowed to sit in the Sen- ate for several unforgettable moments . . . Back to the hotel again where we freshened up for a gay evening. Thirty THE LA WRENCI AN — 1941 April 8 Bags packed early, we once more boarded our busses. Our first stop was the famous Mellen Art Institute, followed by the Wash- ington Cathedral. We were shown through its seven chapels, several of which are still be- ing built, and heard a very interesting lecture on its history . . . The Pan-American building was fascinating with its tropical gardens, gay parrots, and interesting displays . . . Next we viewed the beautiful rooms of the White House, admiring the lovely furnishings inside and well-kept grounds outside . . . Ate our last meal at the hotel, and, feeling genuinely sorry to leave, packed our things into the bus for our afternoon’s ride ... At the Washington airport we saw huge TWA planes and were allowed to view the control room . . . our last view of Washington . . . and after passing through the beautiful countryside of Virginia, we r eached the Skyline Drive in the Blue Ridge Mountains ... Its thrilling hair pin curves and the majestic view were never to be forgotten . . . Eardrums throbbing from the altitude, we reached the highest point of the drive where we got out to look at the farmlands miles be- low us . . . We finally arrived at Shenandoah Inn . . . After a dinner of chicken and fresh vegetables, we were shown through the cav- erns . . . The vari-colored rock formations and mysterious caves were all explained to us bv our guide who also pointed out the effect of blue and rose lights on the underground river . . . Early to bed for once. April 9 Another tedious bus ride . . . After passing through more beautiful countryside, we ar- rived at Frederick, Maryland. Here we saw ' ?he famous Barbara Frietchie house and ate luncheon at the Francis Scott Key Hotel . . . Our next thrill was a visit to the famous Gettys- burg Battlefields where our guide showed us points of interest . . . Travel-stained and w ' eary, we arrived at the Yorktowm Hotel where we freshened up, enjoyed a good dinner, and spent the evening as we chose. April 10 Off again for another long morning ' s ride . . . after luncheon w ' e w r ent to Valley Forge w ' here we heard the famous chimes, saw ' the beautiful chapel and the many cannon sta- tioned at different points along the roads . . . On our way again . . . Arrived at the Taft Hotel in New York for dinner . . . There we thrilled to the music of Frankie Masters and got lost in the endless maze of corridors . . . The evening was free and we enjoyed every minute of it until 2:00 o’clock when we w-ist fully said good night to the glitter and gleam of Broadway. April 11 Morning free (thank goodness); caught up on lost sleep or went shopping — breakfast at the Automat and luncheon at the Taft, after w ' hich w ' e boarded busses for a farewell tour of New York . . . This included a spooky glimpse of Chinatown and a look at the Bow ' ery, East River, and Harlem. At 5:30 w r e found our- selves once more aboard the .S’. S. Portsmouth . . . Ate dinner with less upsetting results than before and enjoyed a hectic evening . . . Re- tired at 1:30 A. M. April 12 Arising at 4:00 in the morning, w ' e were very much disgusted to find ourselves fogbound and likely to stay that way for some time . . . We made the best of the situation and those who had money wired home to their parents of their predicament . . . After w ' hat seemed centuries, w r e arrived at Boston five hours late . . . Somehow ' we kept awake long enough to get home from there and went to bed for a much needed sleep . . . Tired but happy.

Thirty-eight THE LAWRENCIAN — 1941 Freak Day Catherine Waters ' I ' WAS Freak Day in school, a day most A renowned. When all frivolous Seniors cattle in costumes be go wned. The Undergrads watched by the windows with care In hopes that the Seniors soon would be there. And when in gay costumes they came one by one, The day was soon started — a day full of fun. First came Muriel and Patty amidst many roars Like Siamese twins, they trotted the floors. In Pick Wright ' s great shirt, they sure made a sight; And Zeke” as a cut-throat proved quite a fright. Jini” and Kitty ”, as a gay nineties’’ pair, Pedaled their tandem with grim despair. 2 om Grew came bedecked in a dress as a girl, And cast demure glances from beneath a blonde curl. 1 almost forgot that half-cocked old swob, One certain Carl Palmer guise d as a gob.” Yes, Freak Day was a big success, as you can nc doubt judge from the preceding ditty. Thos. who weren ' t mentioned above, but who cer- tainly contributed a great deal to the laughs and fun of Freak Day were Polly and Marion Lord as a blushing bride and gallivanting groom, and John Corey in a fetching suit of underwear. All these came in vehicles, not fit to describe here. We hope that next year ' s class has as suc- cessful and as enjoyable a Freak Day as we had. LAWRENCE HIGH SCHOOL Thirty-nine This Is Graduation Muriel Gediman, Editor O UR scene is the Graduation of the Class of 1941. On the stage sit sixty-nine boys and girls. In the audience sit their par- ents, their teachers, and their friends. A few words, some music, the presentation of diplo- mas and it is all over. They are no longer boys and girls; they are now men and women. These sixty-nine men and women view their graduation in different ways. Some are sad; others happy. Some are reluctant to leave; others eager to go. Whether on this night their sighs be of relief or regret, to all of them graduation is a memorable experience. It is even more than an experience. It is the end of twelve years of preliminary train- ing for life. The friends they have made, the lessons they have learned, these things are grad- uation. The way their characters have de- veloped, their personalities have changed; these things are graduation. The merging of discon- nected thoughts, of half-remembered ideas and the rising, swelling, inspiring Oh, Lawrence High, we offer tribute to thee’’ — this is gradua- tion. -♦ ♦ Farewell To 41 Lyle Long, ’42, Associate Editor INISHED. yet beginning.” So say the Seniors sallying forth into the world on this Commencement Day. We hope they mean it! We say this in no light manner. To tell the truth, some would doubt them. Just take a look at the world into which they are about to set forth. Old Mother Earth is touched with isms drunk with the taste of totalitarianism, dissolution takes place. Just look at the awful state of uproar and turmoil in which the civilized world finds itself. The fact is — it’s a mess! The world seems quite well-finished and cer- tainly needs a new beginning. Seniors, don’t shun the world just because it is not as it should be. Step forth and help to make it as it should be. Live up to your motto — Finished , yet beginning!” Some would have no confidence in you. We have. We know you have lofty ideals, strength and courage to stand staunchly. We know this because you are graduates of Lawrence High School. You have not been turned out just rubber-stamped ' made in high school.” Law- rence High School has tried to instill in you a democratic spirit, above all. This love of democratic ideals will live on in your lives and in your hearts, and you will not — you must not — let them become lost. You say, Finished, yet beginning!” Then, as you stand on the threshold of a new life, re- member your friends who said, Go to it! Show the world that you can live up to those lofty ideals of Loyalty. Honor and Service, and, if necessary, you will fight for them.” Forty THE LAWRENCI AN — 194 1 A Morning At L. H. S. 8:30 A. M. another day — another test 9:00 A. M.

Soon after, a very successful Football Dance was planned by the social committee and held November 29. The committee included Marguerite Lumbert, Patricia Brown, Ruth Bryers, Muriel Carl, Barbara Wright, Jean Wagner, David Cassick, Warren Van Tol, John DeRose, Norman Eldridge, and William Fox. A high spot of the evening was acrobatic stunts by Eunice Peterson. Chaperons were Mr. and Mrs. Henry Frank and Mr. and Mrs. Har- vard Broadbent. During the year, many members of the Class of ’42 achieved outstanding records in scholar- ship, in extra-curricular activities, and in sports. Those included on the Honor Roll and Cer- tificate List are Madalyn Hathaway, Eleanor McLaughlin, Natalie Robertson, Jeanne Davis, Evangeline Tollio, and Antone Souza. Jean Wagner, Jeanne Davis, Lyle Long, and Norman Eldridge were chosen for the Sports- manship Brotherhood. The following people have places on the literary staff of the Lawrencian : Lyle Long, Eleanor McLaughlin, Natalie Robertson, Jean Wagner, Patricia Brown, Madalyn Hathaway. Jean Wagner John DeRose John Lawrence, Jeanne Davis, and Ruth Bryers On the business staff are Bernard Cassidy, Warren Van Tol, Fred Metell, Marguerite Lumbert, Marion Mohr, Evangeline Tollio, Jean Wagner, and Muriel Carl. Lyle Long received five dollars and a gold medal as first prize in the American Legion Oratorical Contest for his original oration, Re- ligious Toleration”. John Lawrence also re- ceived two dollars and a bronze medal for his original oration, The Value of the Two-House Congress”. Irene Wright and Ruth Bryers were on the winning team of the girls’ basketball tourna- ment. Marguerite Lumbert, Patricia Brown Jean Wagner, Louise Brown, and Evangeline Tollio played for the defeated teams. Late in May, the Class of ’42 elected the fol- lowing officers for their Senior year: President, Lyle Long; Vice President, Jean Wagner: Sec- retary, John DeRose; Treasurer, Bernard Cas- sidy. Lyle Long was chosen Class Marshal by the Class of ’41. With eager enthusiasm and anticipation, the class of ’42 is looking forward to a successful fnal year at L. H. S. LAWRENCE HIGH SCHOOL Forty-three Class Of 1943 SOPHOMORE CLASS OFFICERS President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer Edna Warren Richard Samp!? Eugene Baker Patricia Holden C OMING into L. H. S. one hundred and five strong, the Sophomore Class eagerlv looked forward to three years of hard work and good clean fun. After first electing officers under the guidance of Mr. F. K. Baker and Miss Barbara Follansbee, the class got under way as a unit. Their first, and last, social event of the year was a Sweetheart Dance held on February 15. The program of this successful affair was planned by the social committee. Chaperons were Mr. and Mrs. Tassinari, Mr. and Mrs. Beazley, and Mr. Baker. Throughout their first year at L. H. S. many sophomores have made outstanding records in athletics, in scholarship, and in extra-curricu- lar activities. During the fall, winter, and spring, many sophomores have filled in the ranks and formed a nucleus around which future teams will be built. Outstanding among the athletes are Raymon Paltz, Richard Sample, Sam Cahoon, John Tsiknas, Eugene Baker Alvin Nickerson. Among the girls, Clara Peters, Luana Wirick, Lucinda Hicks, and Edna Warren stood out as excellent basketeers in the intra-mural round- robin.” In scholarship only a few have been out- standing. They include: Durham Caldwell, Eugene Baker, and Luana Wirick. Several sophomores have taken their places on the Lawrencian literary, art, and business staffs: Eugene Baker, Durham Caldwell, Jean Barrows, Betty Jordan, John Tsiknas, John Powers, Maxine Holmes, Elmer Ross, Raymond DePonte, John Ballard, Patsy Holden, Betty Sample, Edna Warren. Besides participation of many sophomores in several radio skits, two members of the class had minor parts in the school play, Spring Dance.” They were Betty Sample and Durham Caldwell. Now at the end of their first year in L. H. S., the Sophomores are anticipating two more ex- citing years filled with work and play. Forty-four THE LAWRENCIAN — 1941 An Afternoon At L H. S, 11:30 A.

Sportsmanship Brothe rhood President Secretary L OOKING back on a very inactive year, we find that the Sportsmanship Brotherhood has, however, accomplished several things. A few Christmas baskets filled with canned goods were distributed to needy families of Falmouth. We continued maintaining the Brotherhood Candy Counter, which was very successful. We hope that next year’s Brotherhood will be more active and progressive. Here are just a few suggestions. How about — dances, food sales and plays — as a means of raising money to buy pins for the members of the organization and gifts for the outstanding ath- letes of the school who have best exempli- fied the code of the Sportsmanship Brother- hood? James Harding Patty Berg The Code Of Sportsmanship Keep the rules. Keep faith with your comrade. Keep your temper. Keep y out self fit. Keep a stout heart in defeat. Keep your pride under in victory.

The Dramatics Club President Vice-President Secretary T reasurer P LANS for an active Dramatics Club began with a short radio skit before Christmas to advertise the sale of tuberculosis seals. The play was entitled Jerry Comes Back . This was the beginning of a real radio career for our Dramatics Club. Since that time four skits have been presented, namely, Sixteen , The Amer- ican Answer , George Washington”, and When the Sun Rises . Presentation improved with each program. In spite of their merit, they were forced to discontinue, however, in order to start production of their three-act comedy, ' Spring Dance”. Bernard Cassidy Marguerite Lumbert Margaret Cassidy Catherine Waters These radio skits, under the direction of Mrs. Elsie Perlot of th? Community Center, w r ere continued by members of the Sophomore and Junior English classes with the co-operation of Miss Barbara Follansbee and Miss Kathleen Arenovski of the L. H. S. English Department. Every Thursday at 3:30 P. M., one half-hour program called the Little Theatre of the Air” was broadcasted over Sta- tion WOCB at West Yarmouth, Mass. These were also well received by radio fans. Plans for such a program for next year are already under way. Forty-eight THE LA WRENCI AN — 194 1 Spring Dance Catherine Waters A FTER two months of long, hard work, the cast of Spring Dance”, a three-act comedy by Philip Barry, finally put forth a very suc- cessful performance. An audience of approxi- mately three hundred enthusiastically applaud- ed the excellent presentation of Friday, May tw r enty-third. Ihe play itself w r as filled with the sophisticated and humorous repartee of college girls and boys. Each part was very capably played. The story is built around the spring romance of Alex Benson and Sam Thatcher Alex goes to a New ' England college for girls and is in her last year. Sam, on the other hand, has left college and is planning to make a big push to Russia with his woman-hating pal, the Lippincot. ' Ihe play is based on the planning and contriving of Alex ' s pals to restrain Mr Thatcher. The crowd got a big laugh” out of Sally Prescott with her wild and wooly” en- trance, Frances Fenn with her demureness, and also Mady Platt with her wit. Kate McKim, as the only sane woman in the place, turned out to be a grand big-sister. Hat saved the day with his tap dancing, and Doc Bcyd and Buck Buchanan contributed with their one-two- three shift” act. Mr. Beckett, an able, young biology professor, literally saved the show. The minor parts of Mildred and Miss Ritchie were played to their fullest and much credit should be given to the players. The play was under the direction of Mrs. Elsie Perlot and Miss Barbara Follansbee who cooperated splendidly and who made possible our production. The cast was as follows: Mildred Marguerite Lumbert John Hatton John De Rose The Lippincot Cornelius Spillane Frances Fenn Carol Barrows Mady Platt Jeanne Prevost Doc Boyd Donald MacQuarrie Buck Buchanan Carleton Collins Alex Benson Catherine Waters Kate McKim Patricia Brown Sam Thatcher John Lawrence Sally Prescott Muriel Ge diman Mr. Beckett Durham Caldwell Miss Ritchie Betty Sample CAST OF SPRING DANCE Photo by James Harding LAWRENCE HIGH SCHOOL Forty-nine First row (left to right)-, Azel Young, Carol Barrows, Patty Berg, Muriel Gediman, Virginia Rowe, Priscilla Hildreth, Melvin Fish.

Student Council President Vice-President Secretary T reasurer Catherine Waters Marguerite Lumbert Nancy Cameron Allen Peterson T HUS draws to a close a fairly successful Student Council year. This is the first Student Council in L. H. S. for quite some number of years, and, with this in mind, we have had to be just a little cautious as to what action we took. Officers were elected soon after Thanks- giving. Several things were brought up in the various meetings, but very few oassed the vote of the members. It was decided that traffic officers would be placed in the corridors as an experiment only. An Assembly Committee was appointed, who with the help of Miss Allen have presented an assembly each Wednesday morning. One assembly each week helps to break away from the routine of the day. An Activity period was arranged for and carried out for two or three months. A bulletin was started and we hope this will be carried on through next year. A Christmas Tree was set up in the hall at Christmas time. If next year ' s Student Council will do just a little more than this year’s, and so on in the next three or four years, L. H. S. will have an active Student Council in years to come. At- tempting to do too much the first few years ill mean failure. As retiring President, I want to thank fellow students for their cooperation, and I hope they will help next year’s Student Council to be a meritable one. The following of ficers for the ensuing year were recently elected: President, John DeRose; Vice-President, Jean Wagner; Secretary ' , Eugene Baker.

Sparked by Lino anJ Paltz, the Crim- son proved one of the scrappiest teams on the Cape. The Tide was definitely outclassed by Fairhaven, however, which accounted for two losses. Although seven men graduate this year, four veterans — Lino, Paltz, Medeiros and Peter- son — will be left to form a nucleus for a poten- tially successful 1942 team. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ BASKETBALL SCORING Lino 111 Paltz 87 Mixer 53 Alberts 40 Collins 26 Corey 20 Medeiros 13 Pena 8 Mann 6 BASKETBALL RECORD H.

Baseball Team Durham Calduell, ’43 P ROBABLY the feature attraction early this season has been the twirling of Gordon Stewart, the L. H. S. ace moundsman. The Crim- son right-hander pitched his team to live of their first six victories before they were stopped by Wareham . . . Alberts won the other game, a 17 to 11 decision over Sandwich, turn- ing in a fair performance but nearly losing the contest because of a shaky defense ... In this game, going into the ninth leading 17 to 2, Coach Fuller put in his subs who made nearly half a dozen errors or so, almost throwing away the game . . . The first game of the year with Sandwich proved that the Lawrence High nine had both power and pitching. Stewart turned in a one-hitter while his mates were pounding out a 24 to 1 triumph . . . Far and away the most thrilling game for home fans was the breath-taking second game with Fairhaven. Going into the last of the ninth tied up a ' three all. it looked like extra innings as the first two Fullermen were easy outs. Then Pena belted a tremendous drive into the right-center- field woods for a triple in any man ' s language. Then Art Medeiros ( a little fellow, but how he hits! ) dropped a clean single into left scoring Benny” with the winning run . . . After win- ning six straight, the Crimson were finally stopped twice in a row by Wareham . . . The first of these two losses, in which Alberts was losing hurler, was a tough one for the pitcher. Allowing but three hits in the first five frames, the defense again let him down, and he was re- lieved by Stewart ... It was Stewart ' s turn to have hard luck when, in the second Wareham game, he lost a close decision by a 4 to 3 count. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ SCORES L. H. S. 22 Sandw’ich 1 L. H. S. 7 Barnstable 5 L. H.
