The TRUMPET Day f- :was Done I stood there, enthralled by the beauty of the summer sunset, its rays streaming across the tranquil waters of the lake. Silence reigned - so deep a silence that I could hear the shrill whistle of the small branch train as it crossed the overhead bridge at the foot of the lake, almost five miles distant. From the opposite shore came the reflection of the rich green of the majestic pines. Behind them loomed the hazy mountains, rising crest above crest against the vastness of the horizon. A gull, somewhat removed from his coastal habitat, scaled lazily lower and lower until he touched the water and settled himself composedly where he bobbed like ,a feather in the breeze. Somewhere in the marsh nearby, a bullfrog croaked noisily. A fish broke the calm for a fly, causing ripple after ripple, and ring within ring, widening and vanishing into untroubled surfaces once more. The molten path across the mirror-like surface of the lake was changing, even as I stood there. I turned, and there in the far-off western sky, the fiery summer sun settled slowly behind a distant mountaintop. Day - was done. - Glee Edmonds, '49 i341 The TRUMPET Title Most Popular Most Athletic Most Admired Most Optimistic Most Literary Most Versatile Most Bashful Most Absent-minded Best Mixer Best Dressed Best Dancer Best Personality Best Mannered Best Natured C lass Class Class C lass Class Prankster Chatterbox Artist Midget Giant Most Likely to Succeed I35 I The Trumpet Poll as of March 14, 1949 First Place D.

And Humphrey's Drug Store, and a thousand ot But no ivy-covered buildings or stately trees, Although they're there. I remember the bull sessions, and a pillow fight, And jim Park singing in the shower. Talking out the windowg the mailg the girls. And say! Remember the time that - I shall remember these things.

LAWRENCE MUZROLL Miss KATHERINE CLARK The TRUMPET y Freeclomfs Hope High among the worldly powers, The American Eagle flies, The flag supremely floats aloft, Unfurled unto the skies. Undaunted by I-Iunger's deathly hold, Which has Europe in its hold, America's land holds future promise, Of security for its fold. Its land is unstained by World War II Its ground is firm and hard, Unblemished by London's falling bombs, Unstained by the blood of Stalingrad. Its children paid the sacrifice In the lands across the sea, They died at far-flung battle grounds, To keep their country free. America was not always the leader As it is recognized todayg One hundred and sixty years ago It set out upon its Way. The road was longg the labor, hardg The fruits of progress, slim, But the unflinching faith of the people Was the light that never dimmed. Like the sturdy oak the country grew, Aspiring toward the sun, Its branches number forty-eight, United into one. Its greatest leaders have done their work, They have passed to eternal restg But this harbinger of democracy Is put to another test. The test is its love of freedom, Its ability to defend its stand Of establishing self-governing rule, And peace in every land. Will our country rise to the occasion? In peace shall we always dwell? Will we lead the world to lasting peace? Only future years shall tell. - Colby Merchant, '50 40 The TRUMPET Never Dream If I could go Drifting and Dreaming on that Slow Boat to China Until I reach Those Far Away Places, I'm sure l'd find that Girl of My Dreams.

They spend your money, they ruin your life - So for I-Ieaven's sake, son, don't take a wife. But Fate dealt me an awful hand And before the preacher, I now stand. Mr. Stanley once said to me - Marriage, my boy, is not for thee. I think of Mother, I think of Dad, And of all the fun that I once had. That's gone forever, I can plainly see, I'm like a sunken ship - far out to sea. - Charle s Morrill, '50 The TRUMPET Swamp Vapor As the canoe crawled through the green slime of water, not a word was spoken by the two occupants of the boat. They spoke not, for they thought not, to think was to fear. They were searching in that lonely swamp for a trace of one who had gone in and never returned. Not a winged creature broke the desolation. The only sound was a low murmur - the ominous voice of the wind seeking an outlet from its lonely prison, and finding none. The two in the boat paddled on silently, their presence acknowledged only by a reflection in the murky depths. The story concerning the silent journey is as weird and dismal as the swamp which holds the key to the mystery. The tale begins at sundown, at the completion of a June day over one hundred years ago. Stephen Wayne and his wife, Claire, after a long journey, arrive at their destination, the edge of the Swamp. The sun seemed to fall like a veil of gold on the water, enhancing the beauty of the scene. They fell in love with the spot, and they remained. It would seem that tragedy could never enter their haven, until- It happened on the day Stephen decided to cross the bog on one of his periodic trips to the town for supplies, and save time and effort. At daybreak he kissed his wife goodbye and pushed the small craft into the water. That was the last time Claire ever saw her hus- band. As Stephen proceeded farther and farther into the swamp, he began to notice a change in scenery. The water, which outside had life, became black and still, the brilliant green of fern and blade was replaced by hanging matted moss, the flowers disappeared. This was a strange, a foreboding swamp. f After an hour or so, he noted a cold wind blowing up. It seemed to penetrate his very bones, and he began to wrap his coat more closely about his body, but he stopped - out of the green mists rising from the island, a strange vapor drew nearer, and nearer, and nearer -- Claire waited the alloted time for Stephen to return, then she called for help. The neighbors formed a searching party, and they went into the swamps in groups, for no one would go alone. They found no trace of man, or of canoe. At last they gave up, weary and discouraged. i441 -'-,, ,Ti -LTA ' The TRUMPET S4 One hundred years later, the swamp again forbids the entrance of man into its depths. Two have come to prove there is nothing supernatural about its depths. It looks at them with dark and morbid eyes, for it knows - they will not stay. At first they laughed and talked as they came, but as they progressed deeper their voices were hushed, and at last they did not speak at all. With the coming of night they drew near one of the islands, for they were faced with spending the night on one of them, or perhaps becoming lost. They moored their boat, and they made preparations for the long, weird night ahead. At dawn, they were awakened by a cold, penetrating wind. They awoke with a start, for there was in that wind some- thing that entered their very bones. They saw, as one man before them saw, green mists, rising, rising - The mists whirled higher and enveloped them. Their lungs were filled with this strange, choking gasg and gasping and choking, they fell to the ground. For a long time, they lay there as if dead. Then a breath of wind cleared the air and dispersed the mists. At last they became conscious. They searched the island but could find no cause for the incident. They left the eerie swamp, never to return. What happened to Stephen Wayne, and why was a trace never found? The mystery remains to be solved. As no one will, perhaps you would like to try? - Virginia Coolbroth, '50 ,fws vs r ,gum 23'. t8 fg.. .X r' .V wg52:'5.fSaggs 'SN it .rlvvb '-ii?

Halfway down, he collided with one of the lady teachers, knocking her off her feet, and the two continued their journey to the bottom. The lady, still dazed, continued to sit on the student's chest. Looking up at her politely, MCI's own male Emily Post said, Sorry, Teacher, this is as far as I go. i46lf The TRUMPET Prize Speaking Anne Martin stood backstage, nervously awaiting her turn to speak. She was trem- bling and scared, but she tried not to admit it, even to herself. She knew she must make her parents proud of her tonight - that was the thought uppermost in her mind. Anne was altogether unconscious of how beautiful she looked as she stood there in the dim lights. She was dark and slender, her long, black hair cascading over her shoulders, her eyes sparkling and dark. They held the expression of a wondering child listening to her favorite fairy story. The dress she wore was white taffeta, and it was complemented with a corsage of red roses. It was nearly time for her to speak now, and she ran through her selection in her mind. She knew it perfectly - but it made a difference whether or not you were speaking in front of all those people. john was coming off stage, and it was her turn to speak. She walked to the center of the stage, stood for a moment, and then began her talk. As she spoke, she gained con- fidence. At last, she uttered the last words and sat down. Then she realized that no one was applauding - not even a polite applause. She held back the tears in the realization that she had been a complete failure. The judges left the room, and musical selections were played, but Anne heard nothing and saw nothing. Her mind was in a whirl - she had failed, in front of her parents! The music stopped, and the judges filed into the room. A hush of expectancy fell over the crowd as the chairman of the judges came forward to give the congratulatory speech to the winners. Anne waited in agony just to leave the stage. Then the chairman spoke, The first prize goes to Anne Martin. . Then the applause came. And it was then and only then that she realized that there were tears in the eyes of the audience - tears of admiration. Her eyes told what the lump in her throat would not let her say. - Teresa Kelly, '50 i471 Sophomore Class Roll T h e T R Ll M P E T W' Qi 1' mn Zig ' ,, ijgfiin , ,gig,,1if ' ' First Row, left to right: Beverly Grignon, Leola Dahlgren, Opal Bowden, Corinne Follette, Marilyn Parkhurst, Beatrice Newhouse, Sally Cianchette, Patricia Tinkham, jean Perry, joan Perry, Anita Brooks, Concetta Pinciaro, Gloria Pease.

YOUNG The TRUMPET - -- The Eight Parts of Speech A noun's the name 'of anything As floor, or door, phone or ring. Adjectives tell the kind of noun, As sweet, small, pretty, pink or brown. Instead of nouns, the pronouns stand - Sally's head, his face, my arm, your hand. Verbs tell something being done, To talk, to read, write, sing, or run. How things are done, the adverbs tell - As silently, quickly, ill or well. A preposition stands before A noun, as before, behind a door.

The wind lashed and the rain beat tat- toes against the windowpanes. Because I was a doctor, I thought I would be the only man out on a night such as this. A few seconds later my headlights flashed upon a man stum- bling along in the road. Out of pure decency, I stopped the car-and offered him a ride. He hesitated, but he finally climbed in beside me in the front seat. I noticed immediately that he carried a small bundle which he placed on his right side. I also noticed that he wore a gray raincoat and a black hat. His beard was about a week old - the expression on his face, one of haunted fear. I started the car in motion again and asked him politely what his destination was. He spoke in a low, guttural voice, and answered only indirectly. He said he had a long way to go and for me to drop him off just anywhere. I tried to converse with the stranger, but to no avail. Finally I turned on the radio to a program of popular music - at least, it took my mind off this brooding character beside me and the incessant patter of the rain. Then the voice of the announcer, clipped and clear, interrupted the smooth melody. It was a news flash. James Dobb has escaped from the New York State Penitentiary, the flash came loudly in the sudden tenseness of the car. Last seen in the vicinity of Buffalo, wearing a gray raincoat and black hat. Anyone knowing the whereabouts of Dobb should notify the authorities immediately. Further identification - fourth ringer of the left hand missing. At this my companion switched off the radio. The dashlight gave enough illumination to show that the fourth finger of his right hand was missing. We were near Buffalo - - Nancy Dysart, '52 rl 54 I The TRUMPET Swimming in the St. John It was an exceedingly warm day in late August. The weather had been muggy for a week or more, and it was always at a time like this that the lake dam was opened, up the river. This opening of the gates was always followed by a considerable rise in the waters of the St. John. On this particular day, I had been working in the garden and was feeling most un- comfortable when I realized that a swim was the remedy for all my ills. Many of the older women in the neighborhood had warned me against swimming in the river after the gates were open because of the drive of pulp, but I paid no heed to them. When I arrived at the river's edge, there were a few young children sitting there who told me that the drivers had warned them not to go in the water because of the'jam of logs below. I told them not to be silly, wading into the shallow water. I found it much colder than usual and very black. Sheer stubbornness made me venture farther. As I headed out to the boom, I found the current to be very swift, I tried to fight it, but realizing that it took up all my energy, I just let it carry me along downstream. I made very little headway on my own, and by the time I had reached the boom I was completely exhausted. I pulled myself up on the boom and sat down, then, I realized there was some- thing wrong. To my horror, I discovered that I was only five boom-lengths away from the jam. There were two men near it, one in a motor-boat, and the other balancing on one of the logs, trying to pry it loose. They did not see me, but a yell from the shore attracted my attention. The swish of the current, however, drowned their words. Then it came to me - jams were blown up with dynamite, blasting the pulp into the air like tooth- picks. I was too close to escape them as they would come hurtling down from the sky. The man on the log got into the boat. I let out a shrill scream, and they heard it. The man swung toward me, and I swam out to meet the boat. Seconds later, on shore safe and sound, I saw pieces of wood flying high in every di- rection past the very spot where I had been sitting. - Caroline Goodblood, '51 11551 r f ' The TRUMPET Lost Lost and alone I wander In the forest of the pines. No one here to talk to, Who can ease my burning mind. Then the winds begin to blow, Sighing through the trees, Cooling on my face it feels, Crying with the breeze. No more will I have to cry, No more shall I be alone - For God has opened up his gates, As I step upon his throne. Glenice Eme'ry,' '52 They Never Miss You at All Once a grasshopper had a game of tag With some crickets who lived near by. He stubbed his toe and over he went, Too quickly to be seen with the eye. The cricket sat down upon the ground And chirped until his sides were sore. The grasshopper said, Stop laughing At me- or I won't play any more. Home he went when he wanted to stay, For he was not hurt by the fall. The gay little grasshoppers went on with the game And they never missed him at all. Ermine Norris, '52 'l56I i571 T h e The Season l Like Most The best season of the year, in my estimation, Is fall, a time that expresses a lot of animation. Think of the trees - how lifelike they are, With squirrels running, lickety-la. They're gathering acorns and hazel nuts And storing them away in their winter huts. The leaves are beginning to drift to the grounds, And people are raking them, everywhere to be found. It makes them feel so fresh and fair To be out in the cool September air. Over yonder you look and see red flames, And near by children are playing games. Then there'll be an exciting hotdog roast, That's what I like about the fall most. Children are on their way to school Forgetting about their old swimming pool. Dogs are running by their side, Gaily barking, full of pride. And last of all, outside the door, The teacher calls them into school once-more. Oh! At last the fall is here, And everyone's ambitious and full of cheer. - Sylvia Menendez, '52 TRUMPET The TRUMPET You You You You You You You You HTC are BIC are EITC are are BIC e9lfC.

'Debating Club MCl's debate squad entered the 1948-49 season with an unusually line response to the first call for candidates. Finally chosen to represent the school in the New England Preparatory School Tourney at Bates College were Ray Brown and Chester Nutting, nega- tive, and Gwen Grindell and john Brewer, affirmative. A second team, which also saw action in the debate season, was composed of Robert Nelson and Cyrus Wentworth, affirmative, and Marilyn Parkhurst and Annette Mann, negative. The varsity squad par- ticipated in a number of preliminary debates with nearby high schools prior to entering the tourney at Bates. The squad demonstrated a calibre of debating that was especially commendable. Faculty adviser of the group was Edward R. Stanley. F 1681 The TRUMPET I Mlm you dire Tarty 1 One of the most popular events of the year, the I Am You Are Party, was held in Parks Gymnasium, September 17. The fun began with everyone present exchanging names and making new friends. The winners of this customary getting-acquainted contest were Janet Susi and Wayne Tilton, both freshmen who showed their good will toward MCI. P After the awarding of the prizes, the musicians in MCI's Hall of Fame stepped into the spotlight. Nancy Dysart gave a smooth marimba version of Begin the Beguinef' Later, Sister Mary D. shared the honors with a sax solo, Night and Day. Completing the ensemble, johnny Dana gave an outstanding performance on the ivories. The group immediately made use of the newlyffound friends by dancing to records and smiling at everyone in general-with a few special smiles, of course-over the doughnut-and-soda-pop refreshments. When the doors of the Gym were again flung wide to let a sleepy but happy group into the night, the cheery good nights proved that every- one had made at least one new friend. i69lf The TRUMPET qreshman 'Prize ,S pea king Q The try-outs for Freshman Prize Speaking have just been tabulated as the Trumpet goes to pressg therefore, we can supply only a list of the speakers, their selections not hav- ing been chosen.

Indoor Cfirack Cpening the 1949 season in early january, the track squad held practice meets with the University of Maine Freshman and the Colby Freshmen. M.C.l. defeated the Maine Frosh in an exceptionally close meet, losing to the Mules. At the Bowdoin Interscholas- tics, M.C.l. was again the only prep school entered. The squad performed well, placing third behind Huntington School and Phillips Exeter Academy, 28-Z6-18. Dick Cretchell, winning the 600 and taking a fourth in the low hurdles, and Walker Cooper, first in the high jump, were stand-outs for M.C.I. Prospects for the outdoor season were exceptionally good as the Trumpet went to press. The squad possessed better balance than any M.C.l. track squad since the end of' the War. With a strong nucleus returning from last year's championship team and the- addition of excellent men in the hurdles, dashes, broadjump, and distance runs, Head Coach Maurice L. Earle was able to face the outdoor schedule with confidence. 1771 ' - The TRUMPET - rw f Front Row, left to right: james Yotides, john Dana, Captain Walker Cooper, Bill Nealley, Ray Crosby, Bob Simpson.

Varsity Basketball Though the season's record ended with nine wins against six losses, Coach Nels Corey's hoopmen were a better than average team. They were only defeated by a narrow margin of points in five out of their six losses. Their big defeat came at the hands of a powerful Colby Frosh team early in the season f with a rift of sixteen points. M.C.l. received a bid to the Prep School Tourney, held at the University of Maine, where they drew Coburn for the second straight year. At half time, M.C.l. was ahead by three pointsg they held their lead until late into the third period, when Captain Cooper and Spike Yotides were fouled out. In the last quarter, Coburn managed to squeeze out a victory by four points. John Dana was high man for M.C.l. with 14 points. Despite the fact that Captain Walker Cooper played only three quarters, and at that with a bad knee and fractured finger, he was elected center of the All Tourney Team. i78l f' -e - The TRUMPET Seated, left to right: Albert Fitts, Chadley Ireland, Jerome Hallee, Robert Nelson, Dale MacDonald, Ralph Lawrence.

Cheerleaders The varsity cheerleaders, with Miss Helen Philbrook as their faculty adviser, have done an excellent joh this year in supporting our school teams. Leading cheers at all home games, and those out of town whenever possible, they have done much to encourage M.C.l.'s fine school spirit and reputation for good sportsmanship. Both cheerleading groups- junior varsity and varsity-have participated in the rallies, and the girls worked together on a Benefit Dance and the Valentine Ball, The girls are: Harriet Riley, head cheerleader, Nancy Dysart, Sally Friend, Virginia Coolbroth, Bernice Wright, Joyce Brown, and Kathleen Mitchell. The junior varsity group has also been doing an outstanding job of leading M.C.I.,s fans in some catchy cheers.
