LAWRENCE HIGH SCHOOL Twenty-nine Class Will Jean Barrows E, the Class of 1943, being totally un- prepared for this hurried departure, have summoned one-half our wits to make our last will and testament: As the senior class, we bequeath to the jun- iors the joys and sorrows of a graduating class and the best of luck for Freak Day, a Prom, and Graduation. Joan Trudeau leaves her Victory Gardens to Elizabeth Fernandes. Have you ever tasted rose petals, Elizabeth? Miss Trudeau assures you that they are an excellent source of vitamins, as well as an ornament for your hair. John Tsiknas leaves the running of the movie machine to any boy who will guarantee to get the pictures right side up. Mabel Corey and Stella Hicks bequeath their knack of making needle and thread accomplish miracles to Betty Holm. Janet Thayer and Edna Warren leave one- half their collection of sweaters and skirts to Martha Redfield. Margaret Cassidy declares she will not part with her flaming tresses, but she is willing to leave some of her ability to take teasing and her good-naturedness to Louise Fisher. Peter Peterson leaves a Buzzards Bay tele- phone directory to Jack Doyle. (Pete is try- ing to keep that Oakwood Avenue address a secret. ) Grace Kenerson leaves her quiet way to Beverly Stewart. All you need do to break Grace’s record, Bev, is to keep your mouth shut for forty-eight hours. Durham Caldwell leaves his much-battered map of New York City to next year’s dele- gates to the C.S.P.A. convention. On it are convenient directions to all subway stations, to theaters, Chinatown, Grand Central, and the place with the crazy mirrors. Lee Davis leaves a number-seventeen stamp to Paul Dingwell, so that Ding may resume his once-frequent hikes to Falmouth Heights. Dennis Cruz leaves his bashful, quiet nature to Jehial Fish. Pat Holden leaves that fighting class spirit to the president of the Class of ’44. Bud Rowe leaves to Tank Bishop and Maestro Taylor the hope that, with food ra- tioning and all, they too may soon be able to skip classes without being missed, not to men- tion being able to get into the movies on chil- dren’s admission. Alvan Nickerson leaves his Superman con- stitution and a bottle of vitamin pills to Bruce Espey. John Powers surrenders his beloved brief case to Jack Hayes. With it, he also bequeaths a large roll of adhesive tape, just in case it should break down after all these years of faith- ful service. Sam Cahoon, Alvan Nickerson, Dick Sam- ple, Bob Noce, and John Tsiknas leave their libraries of little blue books to the A.W.O.L. Club of 1944. Rexford Sepia Etching Warren leaves to Rusty Marshall the feud with Rex Allen. To Miss Arenovski, we leave a pair of roller skates. ( That is the closest we could come to filling her request for a bicycle.) You may find them a bit rusty, Miss Arenovski, but we absolutely guarantee them to get you from Room l4 to the Main Room and the office in record time. The senior girls leave this priceless bit of advice to the sophomores and juniors: The cure for squeeking huaraches is — carry them and go barefoot. In the presence of these witnesses, we de- clare this to be our last will and testament this seventeenth day of May, in the year one thou- sand nine hundred and forty-three. (Signed) The Class of 1943. As witnesses thereof we affix our signatures: Euterpe Abraham Lincoln George Washington

Twenty-eight Margaret Simons — Margaret, we have seen you typing and noticed that your fingers just fly across the keys. So, here’s a defense stamp to keep them flying. Richard Strand — Dick, you’re charming and your hair has a slight wave; I don’t think we’ve ever had the pleasure of seeing you accompanied by the opposite sex. If you curl your hair with these, we bet you’ll win all girls’ hearts. Jack Tavares — Farming has always been an interest of yours, Jack, so we figured a hose or rake would be the best thing for you. Janet Thayer — Jan, you try desperately to eat all the vitamins you can; so to make sure you don’t eat the wrong thing we’d like to give you this jar of Clapp’s baby food. William Thayer — Bill, this paddle should help you out, if you should ever lose the oars from your Navy rowboat. PATRICIA Tollio — Pat, we know your am- bition is to do social work in the slums; so to protect yourself we present you with this bat. Joan Trudeau — Joan, we should like to give you this bell so you may get a Buzz(y) whenever you wish. John Tsiknas — There couldn ' t be anything more appropriate for you, Johnny, than something to do with photography; so this film ought to come in handy when you’re posing a glamour girl. We could mean Lorraine! Class History (Continued from Page 22) The biggest surprise and shock of the year came when Mr. Marshall gave us notice that we, the seniors, would graduate about three weeks earlier. All plans naturally had to be revised. As a result we held our Class Ban- quet at Handy’s Inn on the evening of May 13. On Sunday, May 16, Baccalaureate Services were held at St. Patrick’s Church at 11 a.m. Our Class Day, on Monday, proved most en- joyable and we were very excited with gradua- tion so near. Dressed in our caps and gowns, we marched down the stairs on Tuesday eve- ning, May 18; and in just a short while it was over. Looking back over the three years spent in L.H.S., we realize that our years here will un- doubtedly be the best in our lives, for it was here we worked, grew up, erred, and progressed as we climbed the first steps on the long stair- way of Life! THE LAWRENCIAN— 1943 Edna Warren — Edna, you always have every curl in place. Perhaps this wave set will save you time and trouble. Paul Waters — The better part of your days seems to be spent in riding back and forth from the Moors to town. That’s a long ride on a bicycle, so this car ought to be ap- preciated. CARLETON Wing — Wingie, you always seemed to be pretty good at shop here in school, and you worked in the shop at the Oceanographic for so long that a hammer seemed to be the only thing for you. Think you can use it sometime? Luana Wirick — Luana, we know your heart is in Minnesota, but perhaps this will help to keep you company (toy animal). Edward Wixon — Eddie, you’re quiet but smart, and we’re sure you’ll win your wings. So you can always say you had an airplane, we’d like to give you this one. VIRGINIA Studley — Virginia, we know you can write poetry after your writing the Class Ode; thus in order to encourage you, we give you this bottle of ink. John Powers — It seems that you are al- ways puttering around in the lab, here at school or at the Oceanographic, and we weren t sure whether a test tube would come in handy or not; but here is one anyway! SENIOR HONOR STUDENTS Paul Waters, Jean Barrows, Durham Caldwell
