His devotion to self-assumed duty, until illness compelled I him to leave us, will long be remembered by grateful students of this school. LOYALTY - HONOR - SERVICE Loyalty to country, school, and god, Honor kept against all odds, Service to those we find in need With these three — shall we succeed. “ Tlioiaglits of Thee Will Never Die” Joan Spillane A S we of the graduating class stand on the threshold ready to join the busy throng of the world, we cast last, long looks at the part we have just left behind — that part of our lives that to us seems filled with most of the mem- ories of our youth — memories of textbooks once thought of with bored interest, memories of teachers who we thought were trying to im- press us with scholarly manners, memories of rules and regulations of school which seemed like nonsense then. These memories have in reality furnished us with tools to build up the ladder of success. With these things in mind we stand ready now to meet life’s problems, old and new” — Oh Lawrence High School, though we leave thee, thoughts of thee will never die.” A Message To The Class Of 1944 RUSSELL B. MARSHALL, Principal A S graduates of Lawrence High School, you are ready to go on with your education. Some of you will be fortunate enough to go to college; others to work, and many of the boys to the various branches of the armed services. All of you will come in con- tact with many new people. They may disappoint you by their lack of appreciation in your scholarly attainments. They will, however, look to see how practical you are. These people will know that your education has put the tools in your hands; they will watch to see what use you make of them. The way you use the tools is what counts, and this in turn depends on the industry, the thoughtfulness, the experience, and the good judg- ment of you — the user. There has never been a time when there was such a need for young people of ability. The chaotic conditions throughout the world today offer a challenge to each of you and give you a chance to use the tools that we hope you possess. Your country to- day is depending on all of the young people. It is a young man’s war, a young people’s world. Your future and the future of us all depend upon the proper use of your train- ing and experience. As you face the many challenges that you will meet, we here at Lawrence High School hope that we have contributed something that will enable you to meet these challenges successfully.

Smythe Roll Of Honor These graduates of Lawrence High School have best exemplified in their school life the ideals of Loyalty, Honor, and Service” are the words cast in bronze on the Roll of Honor, which for fifteen years has graced the wall at the front of the Main Room, an ever-mindful present to L. H. S. from its generous friend, the late Rev. Henry H. Smythe. In the class of 1944 Joanne Baker, co-editor of the Laivrencian, D. A. R. pilgrim, and class vice-president, and Vincent Duff any, class and student council president, have been voted by their fellow students as the ones to have their names cast in bronze and placed on the tablet. Joanne Baker J OANNE, as a class officer and Lawrencian staff member, has been very active in school affairs during her three years in Law- rence High. This year she was vice-president of her class, co-editor of the Laivrencian, a member of the Sportsmanship Brotherhood, and was chosen by her classmates for her charm- ing ways and studious aptitude to be their D. A. R. Pilgrim. Her interests right now center around the Cadet Nurse Corps, and after the war she in- tends to continue in that field. Vincent Onffany V INCENT, as class president, has success- fully atetnded to all of the graduation plans. In his years at Lawrence High he has always been a leader in his class and a member of the football team. This year his activities included being President of the reorganized and very active student council and being a member of the Junior Callmen Squad. His destination at present is the Navy, but his post-war vocation will be the garage busi- ness. LAWRENCE HIGH SCHOOL Twenty-three Class Ode Joanne Baker. ’44 FAREWELL to the Class of ’44 T AWRENCE High School , 4 Though ice leave thee. Thoughts of thee will never die. Dear old Lawrence, In thy teachings, All our hopes will ever lie. In our hearts with true devotion. We will breathe a parting sigh. Lawrence High School, Though we leave thee, Thoughts of thee will never die. Friends we knew, Through all the ages, Never will we break the tie. Dear old Lawrence, Ever guide us, As ice bid a fond good-bye. In our hearts with true devotion. We will breathe a parting sigh, Lawrence High School, Though we leave thee. Thoughts of thee will never die. Beverly Stewart, ’45 T ODAY we follow; tomorrow we lead.” This is your class motto. Graduation has already marked the end of your today”, but your tomorrow” has been thrust upon you in startling reality. Because of the conflict in which the world is submerged, you are being called upon before you can finish your plans for the future. The task which has been set before you now is not to lead a normal life with financial and social success, but to attain victory in the quickest way possible. To do this, some of you are in the fight now and many more will be in it; others will devote their energies in war jobs at home. Still others will go on with their education because their goal is to establish a new and better world when that victory is won. Whichever path you may follow, start now to take your place in a world in which each na- tion, no matter how small or large, is free to choose its own type of government, a world that tolerates the four freedoms — freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom from fear, and freedom from want — and a world without wars. It will take good leadership to establish such a world; your path, therefore, stretches out before you with the beckoning torch of free- dom lighting the way. Tomorrow you lead!

Lawrence high school Twenty-five Class History Edward Burgess W HILE looking through my Memo Box ' ' 1 found a small notebook entitled: THE LOG OF THE CLASS OF ' 44 on board the training ship L.H.S. Its contents were inter- esting to me. It read: Early in 1942 we swarmed on deck to be- . gin our three-year voyage with a large crew on ship under the guidance of Captain Farnsworth K. Baker and First Mate Barbara Follansbee. With eager interest we were off on our first cruise. Harry Pierce was chosen as our Class Presi- dent. Eight sophomores were chosen for the Lawrencian Staff: Bruce Espey, Marjorie Perlot, Paul Waters, Solange Saulnier, Katherine Tsik- nas, Joanne Baker, and Jean Stuart, lean Cobb and Elizabeth Fernandes participated in sports. Louise Fisher and Carolyn Crabtree were mem- bers of the Riding Club. Sophomore boys active in sports were Fred Jonas, Larry Harlow, Bill Sullivan, Bill Lockhart, Bill Cantwell, Charles Borden, Vernon Haynes, and Frank Macedo. Charles Borden, the basketball star, was the highest scorer on the first team with 122 points. Many of our crew became sea sick during our first year, but most of us found our sea legs and continued. We found great pleasure par- ticipating in various sports and dances. After a summer ' s shore leave we returned to our ship to start the second voyage. We welcomed a group of sophomores and started at once to make them feel at home. Miss Sideri and Miss Suzedell, faculty members, were also greeted by us at this time. We elected Harry Pierce as president and Vincent Duffany as vice president We also had a few dances. Many remember the fun they had at the Harvest Dance with a five-piece orchestra. On that dance committee were Joanne Baker, Katherine Tsiknas, John Thompson, Vincent Duffany, Earl Crocker, and Solange Saulnier. We had a Christmas Bazaar with a juke box and booths ior different things, such as grab bags and penny throwing. On the Ways and Means Committee were Bruce Carswell, Grace Ham mond Jean Cobb, John Limberakis, Hollis Bragdon, and Vincent Duffany. On the L-aw rencian were Associate Editors: Paul Waters Joanne Baker Joan SpiUane: Literary: Bruce Espey and Alice Williamson; Art. Sciange Saulnier, and Louise Fisher; Advertising Man- ager: Agnes DeSouza, Carolyn Crabtree, Eliza- beth Fernandes; Business Staff: Carrie Oliver, William Lopes, Jean Stuart, Muriel Wright, Barbara Bourne, and Alice Williamson. The sea remained calm for the first two months; then we were upset by a real storm. War was in the air for most of the boys. Many of them enlisted and others were drafted. Later in the season, government demands forced inter-scholastic football, basketball, and baseball games to be abandoned for the duration of the war. The boys organized intramural basketball and volley ball teams. Games were held on Friday evenings in the Hall School gym, with a group of high school fans cheering their re- spective classes. Fred Jonas, full-back, received the highest individual score for the season. Other mem bers of the first team were Larry Harlow, Charles Borden, and Frank Macedo. On the second team were Bill Sullivan, Anthony Fer reira, Fred Bishop, Jehial Fish, and Jack Fowler. On the basketball team were Joe Brown, How- ard Ellis, Earl Crocker, John Limberakis, Fred Bishop, Bill Taylor, John Thompson, Vincent Duffany, and Jehial Fish. Miss Arenovski showed us the spirit of co- operation with one important school activity left, namely, the Lawrencian. Many junior journalists contributed a great deal. Another summer ' s shore leave, and then we became Midshipmen’ at last! Being on top made us feel quite proud. We were taken as one group into Mr. Allen s Home Room. We extended a cordial greeting to Miss Odgen Miss Sullivan, Miss Dick, and Mr. Scott. ( The w ' ar had taken a few of our regular teachers for war purposes ) . Vincent Duffany w ' as chosen president of the class. This year w r e have been working on the Lawrencian and have had a great pleasure doing so. We have sailed a rough course, but this is not all in vain be- cause we have planned many things together, such as the Prom, and have gained a lot from ihe three years that we spent here. This being our last year, we have tried re- make it the best; so. Shipmates, let’s make this day the best because we are to face this big world of ours alone. We have encountered favorable w r eather for smooth sailing, so let s coi.in.ee to dc sc on the good ship L. t i. o. LAWRENCE HIGH SCHOOL Twenty-seven Class Prophecy Elizabeth Fernandes 1 CAN remember exactly my graduation from Lawrence High School, ten years ago today. I am now a teacher. I returned to my rooming house one Friday afternoon, and I noticed a letter on my desk from Carrie Oliver, a concert pianist at the Fore River Opera House in Quincy. It was an invitation to a week-end dinner at her home in Falmouth. The next Sunday, I to ok the earliest train to Falmouth and arrived in the afternoon. At the station I met Viola Corey, who had come to the station in a buggy. She told me that Joseph Brown, executive of the Unforgetable Bubble Gum Company, guaranteed that his gum won’t let you forget when you awake in the morning that you stuck it on the bed post the night be- fore. I noticed sitting next to me in the buggy Agnes DeSouza, moth superintendent for the Town of Falmouth. She told me her biggest job was keeping the moths away from the flames. Upon my arrival at Carrie’s home, I met Solange Saulnier, a slim, beautiful debutante. Her hen-pecked husband, Edward Burgess, fol- lowed her. Upon entering the house, I recog- nized her butler as Russell Palmer. I talked to Solange for a while, and she told me that Ruth Carlson, a Hollywood star, and her make-up artist, Walter Hibbs, were not able to attend the dinner. I was surprised to see the way Norma Crowley acted. She was down to 110 pounds, and kept her eyes open for all the married men present. A few minutes later Fred Bishop, a paleon- tologist — and is he an old fossil — arrived with his wife, the former Mary Jane Van Voast. Mary Jane contributed much to the con- versation. She told us that Martha Redfield. with her witty sense of humor, was editor of the Mairsey Doesey Funny Wunny Book Com- pany and that Fred DeMello was Hollywood bound to try to take Clark Gable’s place in the hearts of the ladies. She breathed a deep sigh and said. Still water runs deep, but it is understood that t eonard Fonseca is going to Hollywood to be Fred DeMello’s business manager.” I failed to recognize John Limberakis when he appeared. He is now employed as the fat man of the Barbara Bourne Circus. I wandered around Carrie’s home, and in the library I met Mary Marchisio. She told me she was secretary to Falmouth’s one and only Selectman, Everett Scannell. She remarked that she was looking forward to seeing Marshall Douthart, but poor Marshy couldn’t come be- cause he had to stay at home and mind his twelve children while his wife attended a bridge game. Mary and I looked out of the window for a moment. Much to our surprise we saw a striking tall blond, Carolyn Crabtree, and her midget-husband, Bill Taylor. We rushed out of the library to meet them at the door; but on the way, we were stopped by a gray-haired gentleman, Edward Whitte- more. He told us that Vincent Duff any was a motor cop and that the motorists stopped of their own accord when they saw him, especially the females. Vinny, it seems, wrote him re- cently that Howard Ellis, who used to be very good at shooting baskets at basketball games, is twice as good at getting baskets for Dorothy Day. After this conversation, Carrie’s part-time butler, Milton Soares, announced dinner was ready. At the dinner table I learned that Harry Pierce was football coach at Boston University, and Joanne Baker, without her giggles, was a slim golf -pro. The dashing, young man on my left was none other than Bruce Carswell, the head of the Shirley Reform School. On my left sat a dignified school teacher, Jean Cobb, with her husband, Jehial Fish — an old, salt-sea sailor. I noticed, sitting opposite Carrie at the foot of the table, Louise Fisher, a lady clown. She was talking to Kathleen McAdams, the fattest lady in Falmouth. On Kathleen’s left was Muriel Wright , soci- ety editor for the Falmouth Enterprise, and Dorothy Day, the new actress in the stage suc- cess, Youth Grows Up. Her stage producer, Margaretta Brice, came to the dinner to see Dorothy’s leading man, Richard Bowman , a feeble, old bachelor. I learned from passing conversation that Joan Spillane felt that Brooklyn was no place for an Irishman, so she recently had resigned her job as a chief dishwasher in one of the hotels there.

Class Prophecy ( Continued from page 21) Passing gossip had it that the newlyweds, Bruce Espey and Jean Backus , were expected to arrive almost any moment now. I also gathered from my classmates that Betty Holm owned and operated with her part- time assistant, Kay Tsiknas, a beauty doggery for female dogs. After the dinner was completed we all went into the livingroom. There I met Edith De- Mello , commanding officer in the W.A.V.E.S., and her crotchety husband, Bill Sullivan. I said good-bye to all my former classmates, as I could not stay any longer. I went outside and hired a taxi to drive me to the station. The driver was Matilda Andrews. When I arrived there and got on the train, the cigarette girl, Jean Stuart, told me the train conductor, Clara Peters, wanted to see me. Clara informed me her line of business had been feminized. She inquired as to where I was going, and I told her back to my job as a teacher. As I sat alone in the train, I thought how nice it had been to see my classmates of the dear L. H. S. again. Milton Soares — Milton, here’s a little Fal- mouth din, so when you get sea sick you can keep your feet on the ground. Marshall Douthart — Marshie, we all know you are learning to dance.

The chairman, Vincent Duffany, welcomed parents and friends. Edward Burgess read the Class History and Elizabeth Fernandes the Class Prophecy.

The Seniors, in their traditional ma- roon caps and gowns, then marched from the auditorium to the lawn of L.H.S. where they planted their class tree and sang the Hymn of Loyalty.” Monday evening the class banquet was held at the 4 O’clock Grille. Mr. and Mrs. Marshall and Miss Allen were guests of the Senior Class. After a delicious steak dinner, members of the class danced and had a most enjoyable evening. The night of graduation finally arrived — Tuesday evening, May 23. The welcome was extended by Vincent Duffany and Dr. Carl S. Ell, President of Northeastern University, gave the Commencement Address entitled Con- quests That Count.” Afte r Dr. Ell’s fine speech, Mr. Marshall made the presentation of Com- mencement awards.

We ate at Toffenetti’s to-night and then saw Lady in the Dark” and Xavier Cugat’s orchestra. We were greatly impressed by Broadway. We wen to bed about 12 and had an awful fight open- ing the closet door. March 23, Thursday Horrible rain to-day. Joan, Louise and I went shopping for tickets and stuff. Bruce finally arrived. We went to Chinatown for sup per and then saw Stars on Ice” at the Center Theatre. Had a swell time. We attended the first meeting of the Convention to-day— verv interesting — only 2400 student editors! Col- umbia is some place! Millions of ensigns and midshipmen! Everybody pushes and shove; around this city. Nights are the most fun. To day I followed a couple of professors into the cellar of Hamilton Hall — thought they were leaving the building. At the Convention to-day, we heard Edgar V. M. Gilbert, Overseas Club Director of the American Red Cross. March 24, Friday To C.S.P.A. Convention again to-day! Had a bit of trouble getting there, because Joan could not get her shoes on and had to wear Bruce ' s downtown, so she could buy a new pair. Before we finally arrived, Louise lost her heel and we had to go to the cobbler’s. In the evening we raw One Touch of Venus” and met Kenny Baker and John Boles. Mary Martin was also in the show. We all dressed up and enjoyed the show a great deal. We girls had tea at Barnard this afternoon. We have met some nice kids at the Convention. March 25. Saturday This morning we went sightseeing down Riverside Drive and saw the Hudson River and Jersey. We arrived late to the Banquet at the Astor Hotel and sat on the third balcony for at least an hcur until we were notified they we r e not serving dinner in the third balcony. Miss Arenovski kept our table while we went out_to ret ‘■andwiches. The guest speaker was William Chickering. Time Magazine War Correspond- ent, just returned from the battle area. In the afternoon we all went shopping and visiting. In the evening Louise, Joan and I saw The Song of Bernadette.” When we returned to the hotel we met Bruce and went out on Broadway again.

LAWRENCE HIGH SCHOOL Thirty-nine Senior Junior Prom Dorothy Day S ENIORS and undergrads donned their best bib ' n tucker and flocked to the Hall School gym for the most glamorous affair of the year, the senior prom. The evening was a warm clear one and the spirtis of those who participated were exceptionally gala. The girls wore lovely formal gowns and the stronger sex looked very sophisticated in tuxedos. ( And we heard they had to do some extra special judo to accomplish the effect.) The gym was transformed into a bright fes- tive atmosphere by a group of hard working juniors. Blue and silver streamers, hung from the ceiling, created a tent-like prom setting. A black curtain hung in back of the orchestra silhouetted a silver V”, and ferns, plants, and flowers bedecked the platform. The customary tables which surrounded the dance floor were decorated with blue and silver streamers and pink and blue favors. At the cheperons’ table, lighted by candles, were: Mr. and Mrs. Russell B. Marshall, Mr. and Mrs. Arthur L. Harper, Mr. and Mrs. Robert F. Betts, Mr. and Mrs. N. A. Peterson, Mr. Paul Dillingham, and Miss Kathleen Arenovski. Also present was Lt. (j.g.) Arlene Sheehan, home on furlough from the Waves. One of the features of the dance was the smooth, but solid, music of Gene Marshall’s orchestra. ( Hm, the vocalist wasn’t bad, was she? ) After the evening got fully under way Mr. Edwin Gray took pictures of us having fun.” During intermission, delicious refreshments of cookies, cake, and punch were served by the waitresses and bus boys. (Oh, what would we do without the junior high-schoolers?) Fol- lowing intermission, Duffy, Joanne, Carolyn, and their dates led the traditional grand march, which ended in a dreamy waltz. This was lots of fun. By midnight, all of us were pretty tired, but completely happy and satisfied that our prom was so successful. To Chaperons, to waitresses and bus boys, to junior refreshment and decorating commit- tees, to the printing class (which, by the way, made us attractive dance programs), to Mr. Gray, and to all those people who made our prom tops — thanks for the memories! i Freak Day, 1944 Joanne Baker W HO, in the graduating class of ' 44, will ever forget our Freak Day? Remember how many hours it took Joan Spillane to get into that Sea Scout blouse and two-ton hat? Four of us — Eddie Burgess, Louise Fisher, Catherine Tsiknas, and Joanne Baker — looked as if we had just got out of bed with our night- gowns, curlers, etc. Carolyn Crabtree really had the cutest outfit — tight red skirt, running stockings and the funniest little, red hat. I sup- pose the most original costume, though, was Ruth Carlson’s patch-work dress and bandana. Solange Saulnier, Mary Jane Van Voast, Dot Day, and Margaretta Brice tried to deceive us with their mannish apparel, but we were not fooled. Anyone visiting school that day might have been scared stiff by that fierce pirate, Bill Taylor. Remember Bruce Espey’s wrong-way ensemble? He always was a little backward, I think. Bruce Carswell certainly must have been warm with three pairs of pants, three jackets, three hats and his Scout pack. Limbo” really looked prettier dressed as a girl than he does dressed ordinarily. Remember what fun we had posing for pic- tures, parading through the other schools and eating” coke and cookies all over the front lawn? We certainly had a freakish” good time that day!

W E, the class of 1946, went into active service the twenty-third day of Septem- ber. We elected class officers under the super- vision of Mr. Marshall, Principal of Lawrence High School. This year the sophomores had several out- standing athletes. On the football team were: John Augusta, Paul Roderick, Donald Beauch- man, Joseph Grace, William Roberts, and Wil- liam Oliver. One of the sophomore boys mak- ing the first team in basketball this year was Dick Nostrand, a newcomer to the school. The baseball team also had many sophomore sup- porters. those being William Oliver, Dick Nos- rrnnd. William Roberts, Russell Peters, James Cash Philip Almeida, Paul Roderick, Earl Mills, and Louis Marshall. Elsie Carlson, Doris Lumbert, Mildred Carl- son, and Ann Landers were elected to the J fferary staff of the LanJrencian while Patricia Bowman, Norma Barrows, and Philip Baker we r e elected to the Business staff. The Sophomore class helped carry the 4th War Loan Drive over the top by purchasing one bond for the school. Two outstanding social events this year were the Hick-Hop Dance, a barn dance, successfully planned by Dorothy Donnelly, which was held in the Hall School gymnasium; and the Spring Dance, planned by Arlene MacDougall, in honor of the graduating class. The school orchestra this year consisted largely of sophomores who played at Class Day and Graduation exercises. Those in the orches- tra were Wayne Fisher, Ann Landers, Richard Dimmock, Arthur Carlson, and Charles Hatzi- kon. Though the work at L. H. S. was hard and new to all of us, the following maintained high ranks: Elsie Carlson, Mildred Carlson, Ann Landers. Emma Panton, and Dorothy Keeler. The two members on the Junior Red Cross Council were Ann Landers and Louise Erskine. The sophomore girls helped the Red Cross Council to complete afghans for the wounded soldiers. At a final class meeting the following officers were elected for our junior year: President, Gilbert Mello; Vice-President, Norma Barrows; Secretary, Ann Landers; Treasurer, Adeline Bento. Adapting ourselves to Lawrence High kept us busy with our studies and our extra curriculum activities, but we enjoyed it all. Therefore we, the class of 1946, look forward with great anticipation to the future and what it holds for us at Lawrence High.

T HE Junior Class of 1944 proudly salutes those former members of their class who are now serving in the United States armed forces: Alden Stewart, Edward Pierce, Theo- philus Moniz, George Towers, Hurlburt Bailey, Ralph Medeiros, Robert Palmer, George Grace, Reginald Irving, Ernest Silva, and Paul Ding- well, all of the Navy, Robert Booker of the Army, ?.nd Marshall Cross of the Marines. Starting the social year at L. H. S., the Jun- iors were hosts at a Juke Box Dance in No- vember under the chairmanship of Carol Peter- son and her social committee whose members are: Ann Lawrence, Beverly Stewart, Rose Moniz, Natalie Robinson, Peggy Scharff, Esther Tsiknas, and Jack Doyle. Following this, the New Year was greeted with a Leap Year dance at which the girls turned the tables on their appreciative male partners. William Sullivan, senior, was the lucky win- ner of a $25 War Bond raffled by the Juniors in December. Included in the financial exploits of the year were coke” sales held throughout the entire basketball season and a successful food sale held in March. Horace Van Voast, a newcomer at L. H. S., was the chairman of the Ways and Means Committee which sponsored these financial functions. Committee members were: Ruth Weeks, Anne Lawrence, Beverly Stewart, Esther Tsiknas, Elwood Eldridge, Paul Dingwell, and Murray Wilcox. Representing their class on the Lawrencian staff were Beverly Stewart, Carol Peterson, and Esther Tsiknas, associate editors; Peggy Scharff and Natalie Robinson, assistant literary editors; Hazel Holm and Horace Van Voast, art; on the business staff were Jane Hubbard, Dorothy Crocker, Evelyn MacDougall, Lilly Erskine, Loretta Murray, Victoria Simons, and Fred Davis. Frank Carter with Esther Tsiknas and Murray Wilcox as assistants, headed the circula- tion department. Best exemplifying the ideal qualities of char- acter, personality, leadership, and attractiveness, Carol Peterson, popular Junior class member, captured the title of Miss Victory” during the last Lawrencian campaign. For upholding high scholastic standards throughout the year, Frank Carter, who main- tained an average of 90% in four major sub- jects, was presented an honor certificate at the Forty-four senior graduation exercises. Also on the honor roll during the year were Anne Lawrence, Vic- toria Simons, and Loretta Murray; on the certi- ficate list, Natalie Robinson, Ja mes Rogers, Bev- erly Stewart, Carol Peterson, Margaret Neal, and Theresa White. Football stars included Elwood Eldridge, Frank Sisson, Richard Cahoon, Pete Bailey, Ernest Silva, Jack Doyle, Summer Baker and Merle Davis. Excelling on the basketball court were play- ers Elwood Eldridge, Frank Carter, Paul Ding- well, Merle Davis, and Jack Doyle, faithful and untiring manager. Junior representatives on the baseball dia- mond this year were Jack Farrell, Elwood El- dridge, Jack Doyle, Dave Baldic, and Sumner Baker, manager. Outstanding in scholastic, social, and finan cial events, the members of the Junior Class have done everything possible to assist in the war effort Ann Lawrence, president of the junior Red Cross Council at L H. S., and Carol THE LA WRENC1AN — 1 944 Peterson, treasurer, have conscientiously done their duties in collecting coat hangers, maga- zines, money, and directing the Red Cross ac- tivities in the school. The class as a whole has bought two $50 War Bonds for the school and has donated one dollar to the Red Cross for every class member in the armed forces. Elwood Eldridge, marshal for the class of ’44, was elected as president of his class for the third time. Other senior class officers are: Frank Carter, vice-president; Esther Tsiknas, secretary; Victoria Simons, treasurer. Besides electing officers at their May meet- ing, Anne Lawrence was elected as chairman of the Class Motto Committee with Paul Ding- well and Sumner Baker members. In ending their Junior year at Lawrence High, the Class of 1945 wish to express their sincere appreciation to Miss Kathleen D. Aren ovski, class adviser, whose untiring efforts and understanding have helped to make this year as enjoyable and successful as it has been. M ISS CAROL PETERSON, an at- tractive popular seventeen-year-old junior, was overwhelmingly elected Miss Victory by her fellow students in a whirl wind two weeks’ campaign which ended ( oddly enough ) on her birthday. This Junior Miss”, in the lead from the start of the campaign, triumphed over her two rivals by chalking up 24,600 votes. The candidates were chosen to repre- sent what their respective classes believe to be the ideal qualities in a girl — char acter, personality, leadership, and attrac- tiveness. The juniors selected Carol Peterson as their ideal. She is a Falmouth girl an I has, since the sub-primary grades, been a favorite of her class. The sophomore class presented as their choice, the talented Patricia Bowman, an- other Falmouth girl whose piano playing and pleasant voice have achieved distinc- tion. The senior candidate was Muriel Wright, who lives in North Falmouth and is, at present, interested in becoming o secretary. The Circulation Managers, Frank Car- ter and Murray Wilcox, who ran the campaign, announced that Esther Tsik nas and Philip Baker sold the greatest number of subscriptions, 38 and 35 xe- CAROL PETERSON ipecuveiy.

On that memorable day in November, we se- verely trounced Yarmouth 33-7. When the game was about to begin, it was obvious that the Yarmouth players thought that they had gotten hold of a green” team, but it functioned as one would expect a team to after weeks of undoubtedly heard of Eldridge, but they prob- hard work. One other item. Our opponents had ably didn ' t believe all that was said. These com- bined factors made the kick-off an unwanted surprise. Unfortunately, for them, their kick- off was excellent and the ball lander squarely in Eldridge’s arms. He proceeded to run the ball back to within seven or eight yards of the goal line. Another running play was tried and stopped, and then Eldridge walked around his own right end for the first tally. The extra point was then gained by a successful pass to Douthart. It would take pages to tell of each touchdown and besides it ' s old news, so I’ll tell a little about the individual players. Eldridge was undoubt- edly the spark-plug” of the team, but any team would have welcomed his fellow backfield men Brown did an excellent job of line-bucking which threatened to smash Yarmouth’s line more than once. Joe was never stopped by less than three enemy tacklers. In a similar way, Bowman showed both bucking ability and eva siveness even when surrounded by would be enemy tacklers. In his capacity as line backer, center MacDougall stopped many a play. When it came to passes, Douthart was undoubtedly the outstanding receiver. In general, the whole team played a fine game. There were no weak spots. Yarmouth’s only score at the beginning of the game might be accredited to the fact that Falmouth was not yet warmed up, though YaYrmouth certainly earned their points. Next year should show some real competition with the football mate rial that will be available. Forty-r.i L A WHENCE HIGH SCHOOL 1944 L.H.S.

Kneeling (Left to right): Bruce Carswell, Paul Dingwell, Frank Carter. Merle Davis. I N an unusual basketball season L. H. S. won eight and lost three. The slow-starting Law- rence team, composed of four seniors and one junior, played the first two or three games in a very shaky manner, but gradually strengthened its offensive plays. Throughout the season the Red and White made late starts which seemed to be overpowering against a mediocre team but were weak against a high speed machine such as Provincetown operated. During the regular season Douthart was the outstanding player for Falmouth. Gradually overtaking him was Eldridge, dynamic center. Both played a superior style of ball throughout the season. Brown and Sullivan played guard with extreme capability. In the last half of the season Brown switched positions to become a high geared forward. His place at guard was filled by the inexhaustible Hibbs. These court warriors represented L. H. S. in splendid fashion. After the whirlwind conclusion of the sea son the Cape and Island Tournament, Lawrence High School can look forward with interest and expectation to an exciting season in ’45. ♦ ♦- Season’s ♦ Record L.

This proved hopeless as it had for all previous Cape con- tenders. A hard and gruelling game took place, nevertheless. Falmouth’s star player was Eldridge who copped 4° points. Brown, tem- peramental at times throughout the season, came through with a few of his brilliant long shots and many a close in to tally a total of 33 points. Pressing him hard was Douthart, regu- lar season star, who hit the net for 29 points. Sullivan played a good defensive game, al- though he was outrun at times by the speedy Orange and Black, as was. the entire team in the last quarter. He was fast enough to add 16 points to L. H. S. glory. Hibbs sank only 4 points but played a sturdy defensive game. Substitutes Dingwell, Nostrand, Carswell, Carter, and Davis were in action a very short period, but did a fine job during that time. Next year the remaining second string mem- bers, as veteran ball players, will really have a chance to show their ability. Tennis A TENNIS team for L. H. S. has been formed. The members have been practic- ing a very short time, but are hopeful. A re- quest for games has been placed with Yarmouth and Barnstable and the reply is forthcoming. If competition can be found, a short but bril- liant season should result. Probable representatives of Lawrence are Espey, Carter, Eldridge, and Nostrand, all of whom have played tennis for several years or more. Interscliolastic .Baseball H IGH School baseball has taken the pro- verbial beating” in Falmouth. The war- riors of the Red and White have showed no ability in the art of ball or bat swinging. Orig- inal high school players were Douthart, Beauch- mann Mills, Eldridge, Nostrand, Oliver, Cash, Roderick, Roberts, Baldic, Bowman, Espey, Marshall, Farrell, and Almeida. The first game with Yarmouth was a debacle, with Falmouth on the loose end. The score was 27 to 8. The results of the following games in order were Sandwich 46, Falmouth 18. A second game with Yarmouth netted L. H. S. its one and probably only game of the year. The following game with Barnstable was promptly lost. As the last game of the season a second game with Barnstable proved victorious to L. H. S. All in all baseball has taken the severest drubbing of any sport played in L. H. S. and after the brilliant basketball season it seems too bad, but better luck next year. ■ Intramural Baseball I NTRAMURAL baseball was played this year, and, although lacking some of the needed fire, it kept the competitive spirit alive. The Sophomores were on top and the Seniors and Juniors tied for second place when the reg- ular season forced the end of the interclass bat- tle. The approximate teams for the various classes are as follows. It is obvious from the list that the Seniors were forced to borrow players from the other classes. Seniors: Croft, Douthart, Espey, Sylvia, Bow- man. Juniors : Carter, Sisson, Eldridge, Harvey, Dingwell, Baker, Baldic. Sophomores : Oliver, Ford, Beauchemin, Nostrand, Roderick, Cash, Mills, Almeida, Marshall, Roberts, Jonas, Peters. C. 8. P. A. Convention ( Continued from page 57) March 26. Sunday Up early this morning to get our things to- gether and say good-bye to the things we ' d seen. Bruce and Joan did a lot of crowing coming home because their table in the dining car was right across from Ralph Bellamy’s. Mr. Dillingham met us in Providence. We were all extremely sleepy when we arrived home, but it certainly was a worth-while trip; even if we had thrown doughnuts from the 19th floor, taken off our shoes, and not been able to get them on again in the theatre. LAWRENCE HIGH SCHOOL Fifty-one L. H. S. War Program L awrence high school, as many other high schools in the country, has a war-time program and for the second year the many activities of the school, student Douy, i acuity, and personnel have contnouied to me war effort.

Mr. Marshall,” they said, so many students now have jobs after school that extracurricular activities have mostly died out. Couldn’t we have more assemblies in school hours to make up for this?” Yes,” replied Mr. Marshall. You provide the programs and I’ll arrange for the time and the use of the auditorium.” An assembly committee consisting of Joan Spillane, Joanne Baker, Solange Saulnier, and Martha Redfield, seniors; Beverly Stewart and Frank Carter, juniors; Arlene MacDougall and Phillip Baker, sophomores; was formed to take charge of presenting a series of civil, social, and seasonal assemblies during the year. Oh, for the life of a WAC! That was our thought when we gathered in the auditorium on Armistice Day to hear Cpl. Jane Shaw of the Women’s Army Corps recount the work of the corps at Camp Edwards. Another popular speaker that day was Lt. Loretta Slate of the Army Nurses Corps, who related many inter- esting facts about the Nurse Cadet Corps and the soldier hospital at Camp Edwards. The Thanksgiving assembly was more sol- emn. Proclamations, hymns, speeches, poems, — these reminded us of our many blessings. The big event, in the estimation of many, was drawing the winning turkey raffle ticket. A sophomore, Doris Lumbert, was the lucky girl who won the fourteen pound bird! To celebrate Christmas, we had a carol sing- ing session. The orchestra performed two se- ASSEMBLY COMMITTEE lections. The glee club also gave a special ar- rangement of Joy to the World and of O Little Town of Bethlehem. To celebrate Scout Week, L. H. S. students enjoyed an impressive assembly in charge of community and regional scout executives. After a movie showing the Scout at the World ' s Fair, Bruce Espey, Eagle Scout, led the scouts in repeating their oath and laws. Other explorer scouts attending were: Eagle Scout Bruce Carswell, Life Scout Frank Carter; and Star Scout Wayne Fisher. Scout officials pres- ent were: Fred Crocket, executive; Arthur Jen- ner, commissioner, and local officials — Paul Swift, Harvey Martin, Frank Rego, Antone Medeiros, and Roy Baker. One of the most important assemblies of the spring term was the Pan-American Day as- sembly under the direction of Mr. Fred Allen’s American history class. Mary Jane Van Voast was chairman. After many informational short talks about each South and Central American country, a Take it or Leave it” quiz program on the same subject with Merle Davis as mas- ter of ceremonies was given. Prizes were given the winners. L. H ,§. Faculty (Continued from Page 8) Mr. Elmer Fuller, whose work has been doubled since the new gym program for boys began, attended Posse Normal School, Spring- field College, and Tufts. Four of his summers were spent at a Y.M.C.A. Mr. Fuller enjoys hunting and fishing, but especially tennis. Fifty-four THE LAWRENCIAN — 1944 JUNIOR RED CROSS Junior Red Cross A GREAT deal for the war effort has been accomplished by the Lawrence High School Junior Red Cross under the supervision of Miss Helen Allen and her committee which includes Anne Lawrence, president; Muriel Wright, secretary; Carol Peterson, treasurer; Dorothy Day Lilly Erskine, and Ann Landers. Of the many things this hard-working, loyal committee has done, the crocheting together of the strips of woolen scraps with bright wool is one of their outstanding contributions. After voluntary girls of L.H.S. had carefully crocheted the edges of individual squares of woolen mate- rial, the woolen squares were sorted out and pieced together by the committee to form an afghan. Several other important contributions accredited to the Junior Red Cross are: the col- lecting of magazines and coat hangers for the U.S.O., and a ton of scrap paper for the scrap drive. More recently during the annual Red Cross Drive, the committee working with Miss Kath- leen D. Arenovski, L.H.S. Red Cross chairman, lead the high school, 100% strong, far over the top with a total of SI 56.06; thereby helping to triple the school quota. As the last project of the year, which will in all probability extend into the fall term, the Junior Red Cross members are collecting car- toons for scrap books to be given to wounded soldiers. Strawberry Recruits Found I H. S. has taken on its share of the farm labor problem and volunteered, seventy- odd strong, to aid the Falmouth strawberry farmers as a result of a talk by Mr. Lawrence Loy of the State College at Amherst, who re- presents the State Labor Recruiting Service. Mr. Loy’s talk dealt with the importance of food to the progress of the war; and he em- phasized this importance by the display of sev- eral posters put out by the U. S. Crop Corps. He tnen introduced Mr. Robert K. Marsh, 4-H Club leader for Barnstable County and one of the recruiting assistants. Mr. Marsh explained the importance of the strawberry crop to Cape Codders, then asked for volunteers. Many l almcuth farmers, who had soldiers to help t.iem last year, are depending more than ever on school-age volunteers. War Bond and Stamp Effort L AWRENCE HIGH SCHOOL in Falmouth has a War Bond Committee which is un- der the direction of Vincent Duffany, chair- man; Joanne Baker, and Solange Saulnier. these three hard-working committee members, together with the help of voluntary girls, have done a marvelous job in selling War Bonds and Stamps in our school library, which repre- sents the bond booth. Every morning and noon time the committee has done its part willingly and cheerfully. During the Third War Loan drive, $2,969.20 was collected in L.H.S. During the Fourth War Loan drive $1,656.80 was collected by the same faithful committee. The patriotic students of Lawrence High have loaned out their money to the most worth while cause and have made a wonderful showing for such a small high school. Though the total collected by the stu- dents through the school is comparatively small, the total amount of bonds and stamps owned by the students is well over $ 1 3,000. Classes have also invested more than $200 in War Bonds for the school. The Junior class earlier in the year also raffled off a $25 War Bond which was won by William Sullivan, a senior. Yes, L.H.S. has ' backed the attack” and will continue to do its part. WAR BOND COMMITTEE LAWRENCE HIGH SCHOOL Fifty-five Student Council T HE L.H.S. Student Council which has been re-organized under the presidency of Vin- cent Duffany, formally launched into action with an assembly early in the year, at which each member spoke. Each week the Council prints a bulletin which includes announcement of games and dances and suggestions for improving the school, submitted by the students. Movies and other programs have been presented. Members are: Vincent Duffany, President; Agnes DeSouza, Secretary; Barbara Bourne, El- wood Eldridge, Carol Peterson, Elliott Young, and Elsie Carlson. Senior Christmas Ounce C AROL singing and a lighted Christmas tree were the main attractions of a Christmas Dance, sponsored by the Seniors at the gym on December 17. Mr. Baker and Mrs. Carswell were chaperons and refreshments of cake and coke were served. No great profit was made, but everyone had a fine time. Masquerade Sponsored E y Seniors T HE main feature of the first Senior dance, held in the Hall gym on December 3, was Studley’s four piece orchestra, which attracted a large crowd. The gym w’as decorated in red, w ' hite, and blue streamers. Mr. and Mrs. Roy Baker, Mrs. Arthur Harper and Mrs. Espey chaperoned. Refreshments were served and several novelty dances were enjoyed. SENIOR SOCIAL COMMITTEE [ f PfccS ' ik L. H. S. LIBRARIANS Dance Assemblies S OMETHING new, in the way of recreation, has been found in the form of dance as- semblies which are held every other Saturday night in the Hall gym for senior and junior high students. For the first hour, Mrs. Lillian Howard gives instructions in dancing; and then the students are allowed to choose partners and dance. The object of these dance assemblies is to teach stu- dents, who can’t dance, to dance. Thus far, these assemblies have been well attended. ]L, H, S. War Program Continued from Page 52) Lewis B.

Six talented young per- formers from Brockton played Gradus ad Par- nassum,” The Toy Elephant,” Serenade to the Doll,” The Storm,” Shepherd’s Song,” and The Golliwog Cake Walk.” Also well received were their encores, which were all by P olish composers. Ann Dexter of Hall School and Charlie Hatzi- kon. The woodwinds are Ruth Carlson, clarinet, and Martha Redfield, recorder. Bob Dimmock, cornet, Arthur Carlson, saxophone, and Bill Fischer, alto horn, comprise the brass section. Percussion is taken care of by Ann Landers and Jane Hubbard.

Life savers, anchors, and a rugged gangplank gave the nautical background to the orchestra which was encircled by ship’s rigging and sea bells. The group found the novelty dances, which included a Conga”, Hot Dog Dance”, Bal- loon”, Number” and a Heart Dance,” both amusing and entertaining. Ten ninth graders, acting as bus boys and waitresses, assisted with the serving of refresh- ments. Chaperons for the occasion were Principal ■ Russell B. Marshall, Miss Helen G. Allen, Mrs. i,J Alfred C. Redfield, and Mrs. Katherine Spillane.
