The Americans were attacked by enemy planes and in the battle that ensued, seven German planes were shot down. In the fight, Jay's plane collided with another P-38. Both pilots of the colliding planes were able to bail out and their parachutes were seen to open. Jay was graduated from Littleton High School in the Class of '38.

He played a brave and splendid part in his country's service, and we wait with hope for news of his safety. THE RECORD THE CLASS OF T944 dedicates this issue of The Record to ARTHUR E.

THE RECORD 21 MEMOIRS Pea green Freshmen of L. H. S.-that's what they called us then! I remember only too well that night when we, as a body numbering ninety-five, like it or not-and you can bet your boots we didn't- had to advertise the fact that we were as green as they make them. That little piece of green crepe paper, although measuring perhaps not more than two inches long and a half inch wide, certainly did the trick. You can ask the boys about that. But we had fun. Being the first class to introduce the Twelfth-night party seemed to us quite an honor, and we did our best to make it a success. The brightest picture which stands out in my mind was the bonfire built that night and kindled by pine twigs. Any stranger happening to pass by no doubt would at least have thought about running for his life, for I can assure you we made an excellent pack of Indians. Oh, and by the way, another, but more furious fire, the war, was kindled that year, and by it, we, as the traditional pea green freshmen, hard- ly realized what lay ahead. Less than that were we aware that more fuel would still be heaped upon it as we left our Alma Mater. The Gay, Young Sophomoresn was a good title for us during our second year here at L. H. S., but we were really more than that. In the first place, we were becoming a little bolder and were feeling just a trifle more important to ourselves and our school than we had during the previous year. Then too, that was the year that parties started meaning more to us. As I recall it the most important social, or at least the one which best suited our taste, was our Harvest Dance. Doughnuts and cider always is an appetizing combination. Yes, getting around was becoming quite an art by the mid- dle of the year. Many of our best athletes were beginning to come out of their shells and even made their debuts. The two following years more than proved this to be so. As the days rolled on we picked up more and more knowledge and even stored a great deal of it away to be used effectively when we would return the next fall. And so, as the year came to an end, we felt quite pleased with ourselves, knowing we had passed the stage of being underclassmen, otherwise known as small-fry, to enter into one of promise As the wheels of time roll on, so we too rolled on into the second category of our high school life which unbeknown to us then, would probably be our happiest moments in life. Off to a good start, we planned our wienie roast at the traditional sandpit. The queer com- binations of food that night would have put a French chef to won- dering about the American cuisine. The year was quickly sliding by with much activity. St. Patrick's Dance was a merry celebration, especially when the balloons suspended from the rafters were re- leased and a mad scramble, putting the California Gold Rush to shame, was made for them. As all good things must come to an end, so with our Junior year. Our last two months were busy onesg togeth- er with our Junior Prom and final exams we were as busy as bees. 22 THE RECORD How could we ever forget the Junior Prom. The pomp and chiv- alry of our own classmen was inspiring. The beautifully decorated hall added to the regality of the occasion. After this, we knew we should be preparing more seriously for our Alma Mater. With this in mind, we returned the next fall as grand old Seniors, holding the privilege of being the upperclassmenn of L. H. S. Ours was the example for the school to follow and how we carried on this task rests solely upon the opinions of the individuals we encountered daily. This was to be our big year and we faced it with an undaunted spirit, electing Hadley Gadbois, president, Richard Muzzey, vice president, Gloria Lyons, secretary, and Wilbur Willey, treasurer, as our representatives of Seniorship. Perhaps the biggest part in this, our Senior year, was our play, Shirt Sleeves, dubbed an excellent success. How well those long rehearsals come back to me-Tina Pierce continuously giggling and -Miss Eastman trying to keep us in hand, small incidents to be cher- ished in these, my Memoirs, Socials and Stunt Night, in particular, hold another reminiscent place in my mind. Too soon is the year coming to an end but what a glorious ending this is-Last Assembly, Class Day, and Graduation, the three greatest and strongest of our Memoirs crowding in upon us and suddenly we find ourselves ready to journey forth into the world of success, fortune, fame, war, and disaster. We had begun to realize the war before graduation, how- ever, for during our last two years many of our members had left us to join the armed services. Thus, as we forty-three Seniors stand courageously today on the open road to life, we gather in these, our Memoirs, that they may always remain with us and cheer us in days of distress and encourage us in times of need. By Gloria Lyons CLASS WILL We, the class of 1944, mindful that the close of our high school life is approaching, being of as sound a mind as it is possible for a group of so diverse individuals to be, and being aware of our respon- sibilities to those who may haltingly try to follow our illustrious footsteps, do hereby and herewith declare this instrument to be our last will and testament. Collectively : To the Junior Class, the legal heirs to our titles, home rooms, and detentions, we will the right to have the Freshmen Hop, hop meaning a social event. To the Sophomores, we will our quiet studious ways, said be- quest being in full payment of any attachment any member may have on any Senior. To the Freshmen we will our ability to go places, especially to the office, said bequest to be held in trust by a board to be appointed from the first opportunity room held after September first 1944. Individually : Marion Olson wills her shapely figure to Jean Mills. Miles Quigley wills his ability to argue to Mike Machell. THE RECORD 23 To Ginger Lee is left the small willowly figure of Gladys Marsh. Ed Bixby bequeaths his ever-present grin to Gabriel Houle. Eleanor Colby wills her ability to get her man and hold him to Marcy Holmes-as if she needed it. Pauline Sidney leaves her ability on the dance floor to Mary LaValley and Caroline McPhee. The Triple S, Sullivan, Simons, and Spreadbury, will their abil- ity to get around out of town to the Junior boys. They don't use a map either. Al Blasenak and Lawrence Hartshorn will their ability to get around in Manchester to Ed Holt and Raymond Emery. Phyllis Mitchell wills her ability to get to school on time to Vir- ginia Lewis. Albertina Pierce wills her everlasting giggle to Barbara Cham- pagne. To Barbara Emery is willed the ability to bluff teachers by Bev- erly Perkins. Deborah White leaves her out-of-town interests to Irene Berger- on. Russell Buker wills his ability to be true to ONE to Mark Gard- ner. To Ruth Hadley goes the quiet studious ways of Olive Towle, Monica Glode and Carlene Ennis. Barbara Miles wills her typewriter in Room 8 to Theresa Lib- erty- but not for the same purpose. Ray Foster wills his loud peculiar call to Harry Ennis. Beverly Gardner wills her ability to attract the opposite sex to Kay Boardman. Hillis Goad wills her docile disposition to Alice Carmen. Hadley Gadbois wills his thriving mustache to George Lemire. Bob Finn wills his ability to get along with the girls to Alfred Sidney. Robert Labonte and Lawrence Latulip will their dancing ability to Ellsworth Knapp. To Eric Whiting and Fernand Lemieux goes Wilbur Willey's physique. Robert Miller and Joe Sulham will their Navy blue to Martin Elliott. Dick Muzzey wills his playboy attitude to Mervyn Willey and Frank Ladd. Virginia Cote leaves her boisterous manner to Carlene Abbott and Winifred Labonte. Gloria Lyons wills her efliciency in shorthand to Joan Carlin, Patricia Champagne, and Marion Fish. Rita Ross wills her title Impy to Priscilla Perry and Iris Beal. Goldie Styles wills her many boyfriends to Ann Glode and Theresa Houle. Barbara Thompson wills her tall, willowy figure to Joyce Carleton, Nancy Ledoux, and Elizabeth Fisk. 24 THE RECORD And Lastly: Irene Carbonneau wills her athletic ability to Louise and Wilma Perkins. Earl Trombley wills his Frank Sinatra Voice to Bud Clark. And furthermore, the class designates as executor of this instru- ment Chief of Police Van H. Gardner-Chief Gardner bein robably the only individual with sufficient power and sufficient know edge of the various legatees to be able to carry out the herein mentioned provisions. Done under our hand this 16th day of June, one thousand, nine hundred and forty-four. For the Senior Class, Witnesses: Irene Carbonneau Carson Adams Earl Trombley.

Place: Airliner going to Bermuda, South America, etc: M: Are you comfortable, sir? Well, if it isn't Bob Finn! B: Why, Mimi Olson, what in the world are you doing in here and in that outfit? M:-Why, I'm senior hostess on this Pan-American clipper. What are you doing here? B: I always knew you'd land a job like this where looks and in- telligence count. I'm on my way to South America to work on my first engineering project. I just finished college this summer with the government paying all expenses. Remember they made us that offer after we got through licking Hitler and Tojo? M: Yes. heard that quite a few of our classmates liked the Armed Services so much that they stayed in after the war ended in 1945. B: Bob Miller is a veteran tar now. Much to the disgust of Gladys Marsh he signed up for another ten year stretch in the Navy. I always knew he hated all girls but I never knew he would go that far to get away from them. M: Joe Sulham is a Lieutenant Commander in the Navy and boy! is he giving the works to Dick Muzzey and Al Blasenak who are under his command! Al is putting his athletic ability to use by having to swab the decks most of the time. I heard the only reason Al stayed in the Navy was because they gave him plenty of food. He was afraid that he could never find a girl to marry who would cook enough for him. B: But you can't say that about Dick Muzzey. A girl in every port made him stay in the Navy. That was the only Way he could afford to go around and see them all. Bill Sullivan and Leo Spread- bury stayed in the Leathernecks together, did you know that? M: Yes, I heard they did. Both of them are sergeants now. B: That's right but it's the same old story that it was in high school. Bill is top sergeant and thinks up all of the dirty work while Leo is mess sergeant and gets all the mess that Bill can get them into. M: A lot of the girls of our class got into the WACS before it was all over. Tina Pierce, Lois Hart, Bev', Gardner, and Rita Ross joined together and their job was to speak before large au- diences and get them to buy War Bonds. B: Yes, I can remember how they used to love getting up in class and giving a ten-minute talk. M: After the war they stayed together and are running a date bureau for old maids. B: Weren't Norm Simons, Miles Quigley, and Russ Buker in the Air Force? M: Yes, and they got to be aces during the war but they're aces of a different kind now. Quig is running a helicopter line between Littleton and St. J ohnsbury. He also transports the Gilman students to L. H. S. in his helicopter plus transporting all the athletic teams. B: He flies through the air with the greatest of ease, huh? M: Norm is still aces with Ruth although she's the boss of the 26 THE RECORD family now. He's one of the pilots of the Pacific Clipper and looks pretty nice in his uniform. B: You don't have to tell me about Russ Buker. I can guess who caused him to go into a tailspin. M: Yes, Russ and Sally are running the toy department of Firestone back in Littleton. They have a great time pushing the scooters around. B: I heard of Glode's famous Kandy Kitchen back in Littleton. Is that Monica by any chance? M: Yes, it's Monica all right and her silent partner is Wilbur Willey. B: I can't picture him silent very long but then I guess Monica put the old sheik in his place. M: I just received an invitation to attend the L. H. S. Junior Prom this year. They're having Lawrence Latulip's Blues inthe Night Band with Earl Sinatra Trombley the featured singer and Jitterbug Olive Towle giving an exhibition. B: I bought a magazine at the last stop we made and guess whose picture is in it? Carlene Ennis's. M: Carlene's! Why? B: She's a model now-advertising Dr. L. M. Bauld's new hair oil for luxuriant hair growth. M: Well, I'll be darned. You'll be able to see some of our old classmates when we land in Brazil. B. Swell! Who? M: Bob Labonte, Virginia Cote, Pauline Sidney, and Marie Pa- quette. They came down on a good-will tour and got stranded. So they decided to make enough money to go home on by dancing in a Night Club. Bob does the managing for the girls. They liked to work here so well that they're going to stay a while. B: Some of our classmates are married now. Phyllis Mitchell married Ed Bixby-they live in Ohio. Ed's a coach now-pretty well-known, too-and when he received two offers to coach, one from Ohio University and one from Dartmouth-you can imagine which one they took. M: Oh, yes, Phil did come to Littleton from Ohio when we were Juniors, didn't she? B: Where's Barbara Miles now? M: Haven't you heard about her? She's heading an expedition going into the jungles of Africa. B: What on earth for? M: There's a certain parachutist from the War who parachuted to safety during the War. That was years ago but he never came back. Now it seems that a certain native tribe in Africa has an exalted white king-with Red Hair! B: Say no more-I get it. Say, Eleanor Colby is living in Little- ton again. M: She is? I remember she went to Plymouth Teachers college. Is she teaching in Littleton now? B: No, she had to give up teaching and help her husband in his Hardware Store. He kept getting tangled up in the rolls of wiring THE RECORD 27 everytime he had to unroll any. You know how it'll snap back up on you. M: Gloria Lyons Jock's husband was honorably discharged from the Navy in 1948. Now he's trying to keep Gloria as calm as he helped keep the Japs. B: I hear that Ray Foster is somewhere in Argentina. M: Yes, he went into the back country to teach the natives how to erect those ready-made bungalows from the United States. They still insist on taking them down and folding them up during every storm. B: Ray always did want to be some type of engineer. M: Irene Carbonneau was down in Brazil recently-to compete in a broad-jumping contest. She won, too. B: Gosh, I remember back in school Irene was lots better in ath- letics than any other girl. M: She's still going strong, too. She winters in Sun Valley and summers in Europe and South America-teaching athletics. B: Kathleen Bronson has a band of her own now. She calls it the Bunny Hugs. She put Harry James on the skids when she went professional with the trumpet. M: I remember when Bunny used to play in the school band. Our school orchestra is now a thing of the past. They let the kids play Swing now. B: Beverly Perkins, Pauline Santy, Eva Laflamme and Deborah White are still back in Littleton waiting for their respective iiances to come home. M: Where are they? B: Oh, they're part of the world policing system in Germany. The girls are getting quite excited-the boys' terms are up in three more years. M: Hillis Goad and Goldie Styles are still working for Norton Pike. B: What are they by now-private secretaries? M: Oh no, you know the recreation plan that each factory has put into effect since the war. Well, Goldie and Hillis are in charge of keeping the workers happy. B: Barbara Thompson's boy-friend moved to Littleton to be near her when we were Seniors-remember? Now that they're married they've moved back to Whitefield-he got too homesick. M: I remember when Barb used to always be waited for by him in his car after school-the rest of us always had to walk down that steep hill. B: That hill was easier going down than up! M: Excuse me-everyone fasten their safety belts, please. We're preparing to land. Bob, wait 'til you see Who's President of Brazil. B: Who is? M: Hadley Gadbois! Jimmy Dorsey's arrangement of Brazil finally got him. He came down here as a sightseer and you know 28 THE RECORD Hen-now he's President of the place. Lawrence Hartshorn's heli- copter will pick us up at the Airport. B: I thought he ran a line between Littleton and Gilman. M: He did, but Miles Quigley put him out of business. Hadley asked him to come down here-so-oh, there he is now-let's go! By: Marion L. Olson Robert Finn.

CLASS POEM Four years ago we assembled as a class To seek new interests, goals, and friends, And knowledge-that We might reap Success and happiness from all the future sends. We started out with faith and hope and courage, And through these years of war and strife We've firmly clung to our convictions, That we might gain a rich reward in life. Our path, begun 'neath sun yet mackerel sky, Was soon obscured by darkness and by thunder's roar, Our classmates, called by duty and by conscience, Left to help to close forever dire oppression's door. We who remained have worked with diligence and patience To keep alive the hopes of parents, teachers, friends, With God our guide, we'll meet their expectations, Until our path of life into the sunset Wends. This is the shining challenge we must meet: Our motto-In ourselves our future lies. To do our best from day to day, Yet always look to higher, brighter skies, To see maintained a world of peace and right, Where men are firm, but free and just, To banish hate, and greed, and war- This is our duty, this our trust.

'Q fl' fb 'ii 1' Q ' 1, On April 24 Coach Toll called forth the candidates for baseball. There were only three lettermen who reported, Albert Blasenak, Edward Bixby, and Norman Simons. Despite the inexperience of the other candidates, Coach Toll did a splendid job and welded them into a fast, smooth-working team. A first class club was pre- pared to meet all opponents. The lineup was as follows: catcher, Rudy Kimball, pitchers, Kemon Pisperikos and Miles Quigleyg first base, Albert Blasenak, second base, Norman Simons, third base, Leo Mayhewg shortstop, Captain Edward Bixby, right field, Bertram Perryg center field, William Sullivan, left field, Lawrence Latulip and George Thomp- son. Earl Trombley was manager. ST. JOHNSBURY ACADEMY 1, LITTLETON 0 In its first game of the year the Red and White lost a close game through an illegal decision by the umpire. It will go down as one of Ripley's Believe It or Not decisions as the umpire called Al Blasenak out twice in the same inning, thus nullifying the tying score. Baseball fans were amazed to find the umpire not only count- ing Al's out at first as two but also refusing to interpret the decision. Rather than to forfeit the game, the Tollmen took the field again. Kemon Pisperikos did a neat job of pitching which included strik- ing out five successive opponents. LITTLETON 19, WHITEFIELD 0 The second game of the season saw a strong Littleton team walk over Whitefield 19 to 0. The Red and White banged out 15 hits to Whitefield's 5, with Kimball and Simons leading the attack at the plate. LITTLETON 6, LANCASTER 0 The following Tuesday the Red and White met their hardest opponent thus far. Lancaster put up a good fight, but with superior hitting the Littleton team came through with a 6 to 0 decision. Quigley pitched an outstanding game, allowing only one hit and striking out 13 men. Bixby and Sullivan were tops at bat, each clouting out triples and singles. Still remaining on the schedule as The Record goes to press are the following games: St. Johnsbury at Littleton, Littleton at Lisbon, Berlin at Littleton, Littleton at Lancaster, and Littleton at Whitefield.
