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
