I n his untiring efforts as faculty manager of sports he has niaale our years in high school happier and more enjoyable. 3.111 illlrmnriam MARGUERITE OATES CAMPBELL Manchester High School Faculty 1921-1946 Marguerite Oates Campbell, for twenty-five years teacher, counselor, and friend to hundreds of Man- chester High School boys and girls, passed away De- cember ll, 1946. Since 1934 she served as head of the Social Studies Department. In the years 1939 to 1944 she was faculty adviser to the Student Council. Her classes included United States History, Modern European History, and Problems of Democracy. Her friendly disposition, her cheerful smile, her devotion to the needs and interests of all her pupils, her loyalty to her own high ideals and to her fellow workers, her sympathy and readiness to help, counsel, and advise all who sought her aid, together with her deep knowledge of her subject matter and the youth in her classes, all served to make her one of Manchester High Schoolls most beloved teachers. In appreciation of her untiring efforts in behalf of Manchester High School, the staff of the 1947 SOMANHIS respectfully dedicates this page. MEMORIES FACU LTY Bark R04w.'

Let us not forget the days That made our hearts beat fast, The days all Hecked with memories Of a soon forgotten past. Remember how on springtime days We tried to skip our classes, And gathered on the steps outside In little babbling masses? Our homework that was left undone Required a few excuses. They were the best that we could find, But they had had their uses. We struggled on with Latin, And with math and history too, But somehow countless other things Threw our thoughts askew. There were so many pleasing things Like dances or a game. lt seemed so very sad to us When graduation came. And now that We have passed along And left a place for more, We wonder if the future has As happy things in store. CHARLOTTE WORGAN, '48 Quill Club F acuity Arthur H.

Veterans ' School This was the second successful year for the vet- erans' school which opened in September with an enrollment of one hundred twenty-eight veterans. Later this number increased to a high of one hun- dred thirty-two. Due to the large number of applicants from veterans the school had to limit applications to Manchester residents. To meet this large expan- sion new teachers Were added to the faculty, and some of the classes were held in rooms in the South Methodist Church and the Barnard building. The veterans school held the same sessions as the high school. The subjects taught were general high school subjects which included, economics, economic geography, algebra, geometry, English, chemistry, physics, history, problems of democracy, and biology. The subjects Were taught by two full-time teachers and five part-time teachers. Some of the veterans attended the school to com- plete their high school education, while others re- turned to take preparatory courses before going on to college.

This staff descended from the SOIVIANHIS Business Staff, but this year it had its own special job, which consisted of securing sub- scriptions to the Quill literary magazine, as Well as SOMANHIS, and handling all finances, collecting the advertising, and distributing the issues of the respective magazines. Two meetings a month were held, with twenty-three members present, under the di- rection of lllr. Russell Wright. Stop 113 if yozffve heard llzem before. QUILL CLUB Bark Rofw: T. Dowling, M.

QUILL CLUB Quill Club, an organization designed to promote interest in creative writing and pro- duction of the school literary magazine, has had a successful year, with Nfiss lVIarion Casey as faculty adviser. For business pur- poses the staffs of Quill and SOMANHIS are now combined under the name of Manches- ter High School Publicationsf' This year the first issue of the Quill was published di- rectly following the Christmas vacation. An innovation in the magazine was advertising, with NIL Russell Wright in charge. llaterial for publication was submitted by any members of the student body who de- sired to do so, either through their English classes or independently, and at the weekly club meetings, scripts were read and criti- cized. A staff, composed of members of the club, selected material for publication and did the proof reading. As has been the custom in former years Quill Club again sponsored a literary contest with cash prizes for the best prose and poetry submitted. Another activity of the club was the designing of original Christmas cards which were sent to each home room.

THE HIGH SCHOOL WORLD The High School Worlzl recorded for the readers of the Manchester Evening Heralzl the life of the school. lt gave recognition to outstanding individuals and group activities. Loyalty and devotion were characteristics of the staff members. These Were assets which enabled them to put out a Weekly pub- lication, even during examination Week and the first and last Week of school. The Worlzl assignments of stories, the editing and headlining have been handled by the able Editor-in-Chief, Artemis Pazianos, and the associate editors, Olga Krupen and Susan Trustenitzer. There were thirty-two members on the editorial staff, one photographer, and nine typists. The Weekly meetings, held in the High School World Office, gave experience in jour- nalistic practices. Worlzl members have in- terviewed a number of undergraduates, fac- ulty members, and guests as a part of their training. During the year the stall had social gath- erings including a Halloween Party and the New Yearls Party given for former gradu- ates Who belonged to the World Staff.

Helen Page Skinner, and sixteen charter members of the National Thespian Society, Troupe 6-l-4. During the course of the year each Thes- pian directed a one-act play, or took charge of a meeting in some other way such as pan- tomime, stage directions, or voice. Among the plays presented Were: 'Joint Owners in Spain, The Bride Wore Red Pajamas, Rose of Plymouth ToWn,,' Dickens Christ- mas Carol, l'Alice's Blue Gownf' and i'How Vulgarf' In February, Sock and Buskin presented its annual three-act public performance Our Town, by Thornton VVilder. At this time the club gave three performances, on Feb- ruary 20, 21, and 22, instead of the usual two. This was the first time Sock and Bus- kin attempted a play consisting of no scenery, but once again, the members proved their versatility. In April these Thespians presented Will ol the Wisp', at the Connecticut Drama Fes- tival at Danbury Teachers' College, Danbury, Connecticut, in which fourteen schools par- ticipated. On April 27 and 28, Connecticut was host to the New England Secondary School Drama Festival, at Wesleyfan University, Middle- town, Connecticut. rfTll6f is a knack of making a point without making an enemy.

ART CLUB The Art Club has continued its practice of having a roll call which is answered by reading short articles on the subject of art clipped from newspapers or magazines. At the meetings of the Art Club there were various media discussed and demonstrated such as: oils, frescols, water colors, and char- coal. Some craft work has also been done this year such as stencilled scarfs, handkere chiefs, towels, silver bracelets, etc. Each member has done individual Work with whatever media he desires. The members have also enjoyed several sketching trips and social affairs during the year. Some members entered work in the Scholas- tic Art Contest held in February and in the National Humane Society Poster Contest held in llay. A vocational guidance meeting was held in February at which time Professor Charles NI. Robertson from Pratt Institute spoke. The secret of life is not to do what you like, but to like what you do.

The usual campaigns were conducted suc- cessfully, including the Junior Red Cross, the hlarch of Dimes, Christmas Seals, and Libra- ry Tag Day. The S.A.A. campaign resulted in the largest membership in the school's history. Several times during the year the Council polled student opinion on various matters which directly concerned the student body.

However, the pur- pose of the club, to help and assist others, at home and abroad, Was still maintained. In November, the girls contributed a huge amount of old clothing which eventually was sent to the unfortunate people of Poland. They have had various speakers during the course of the year, their subjects pertaining to vocations and group relations. Movies and various parties were also enjoyed throughout the year.

JUNIOR GIRL RESERVES I will do my best to honor God, my coun- try, and my community to help other girls and to be in all ways a loyal, true member of the Girl Reserves. Doing their best to live up to the Girl Reserve Pledge, the Jun- ior Girl Reserve Club has scored another suc- cessful year. Under the leadership of Miss Doris E. Cole and Miss Doris E. Kibbe the club has carried out many service projects, such as col- lecting and sending boxes of clothing to the destitute of Holland and Germany, and mak- ing red and White Valentine favors for the food trays at the Manchester Memorial Hos- pital. The club also helped in the March of Dimes drive by addressing contribution cards. The Junior Girl Reserves have had many social affairs gracing their calendar of events. Among these was a music festival held in the spring. Mr. G. Albert Pearson directed group singing and members of the club per- formed colorful folk dances from various countries, A fashion show was held in the spring in which members of the club modeled outfits suitable to every taste. The grandest social event was the annual Hi-Y Girl Re- serve Dance held on March fourteenth. How can one be stupid without practice? HI- Y Bark Row: T. Robinson, J. Mutty, R. Azinger, B. VVilkie, R.

LIBRARY CLUB The Library Club, under the direction of Mrs. Gerardi, has had a very busy and in- teresting year. Two study periods a week are devoted to the library by its thirty-five members. They were initiated by first passing a test, which demanded the knowledge of classification, H1- ing and checking books in and out. Then their duties began and each member was as- signed a definite section to care for, which included filing, checking, and keeping it in order. Book week this year was celebrated by a Russian Exhibit, including original paintings by school children, enlarged photographs of libraries in Russia, a complete display of Rus- sian books for children and adults, and an exhibit loaned by the Connecticut Inter- American Council. A faculty tea was given after which the teachers inspected the exhibit. As is traditional during this Week, Tag Day was held at which time the students con- tributed money toward the purchase of new books. Caring for the books is not the only duty of the members-for dust will collect on the tables, chairs and shelves of the library, too. For their entertainment, as well as knowl- edge, the club took a trip to Trinity College Library and also to the Connecticut State Library. After a year of hard work a picnic was en- joyed by all the club members. Give half a man a chance. BIOLOGY CLUB Bark Row: R. Sims, K. Janssen, G. Rose. Seeond Rofwf V. Carman, J. Wolcott, M.

The complete anatomy of a frog was studied and the entire skeleton Was mounted. Besides their indoor Work, the members enjoyed hikes to further their nature studies. This year for the first time, it was voted that members might go to the laboratory at any time to Work on projects or experiments. At the end of the year, these biologists agreed that they had had Z1 very successful season, and they closed their eventful year With a picnic.

Club oiiicers Were elected from the group of senior girls with juniors as assistants. The meetings were held every Wednesday after school in the sewing room and any other day when the girls wished to Work on their garments. Many of the girls made their winter and spring outfits during the year. A very successful Spanish supper Was given in November, with Miss Doris Kibbe as speaker.

At each meeting the roll call Was answered differently. Sometimes it was answered by giving their favorite pastime, what was done during vacation, where they would like to travel, and their favorite food. During the meetings the members sang French songs, had spelling bees, played French games, presented skits in French, and had amateur hours. Reports were also given con- cerning French life, their customs, and the latest news about France. La seance est levee. Not mentioning any names. SPANISH CLUB Back Rofw: J. Peabody, R. Krause, W.

SPANISH CLUB The second and third year Spanish classes have held monthly meetings this year during their respective class periods under the direc- tion of Bliss Beulah Todd. New innovations have been the purchasing of Spanish records by the club members and individual subscriptions to El Eco. Oral Spanish reports have also been taken from Re- vista Rotaria and Seleeeiones flel Readefs Digest. The fifth period club held several meetings in the dining room in order to enjoy their Spanish records, and to converse in everyday Spanish about food and items of school in- terest. ' The sixth period club had several musical and dramatic programs in the Assembly Hall including a Christmas party and a complete graduation program planned and carried out in Spanish by all members of the club. The fourth period club took care of the spring bulletin board displays and arranged a Pan American exhibit. Other programs stressed the various holi- days, included proclamation translations, Spanish reports of timely interest, original conversations, skits, cross word puzzles, and quiz programs in order to enliven everyday Spanish.

The newly uniformed group, under the direction of lVIr. William Vaders, whose untiring effort has continued strengthening the Band, have played numerous engagements. At home football games the Band made its first appearance, following was parents' night. On November ll, the organization marched in the Armistice Day Parade. An all Band assembly was given on November 27th to show the student body the newly ac- quired uniforms. Sweaters and letters, first again at RI.H.S., were given to members to be worn at band functions. Activities follow- ing were the Turkey Day Race, the home basketball games, a concert given at Ells- worth High School, and concerts given at grade schools in town to encourage the study of instrumental music. The school was rep- resented in the lflemorial Day parade by the Band. The Band attended the C.C.I.L. music meet held in Bristol and also the Connecticut State Nlusic Festival held in Norwalk. The Band, now truly a vital part of the school's activities, closed its eventful season with the annual outdoor festival. No chain is stronger than its weakest link.

The A Cappella Choir, for the second consecutive year, rendered Han- dells Oratorio, 'iThe Messiahi' to a capacity audience at the South Nlethodist Church, sang for Parents, Night at the High School, presented programs on Bday first and second at their annual concert, sang at the annual Outdoor Festival, and at the graduation ex- ercises. The Round Table Singers, a group of twenty mixed voices chosen from the A Cap- pella Choir, sang a series of twenty concerts during the month of December for such vari- ous organizations as the Manchester lllemo- rial Hospital and at P.T.A., Kiwanis, local stores and homes. The Boys' and Girls' Choirs, together with the A Cappella Choir, Went to Winsted on April eleventh and participated in the State Choral Festival. In addition, the Juniors and Seniors of all three choirs participated in the C.C.T.L. lflusic Festival in Bristol on Nlay eighth. The Boys' and Girls' Choirs also took part in the annual Outdoor Festival. Be not simply good, be good for something. Xwm A fa A f Q ----A ,WZ X J ' f C ' f Q cf x C-Q' 5 ffm K L S?

FOOTBALL Coach-NIR. KELLEY Captain-JAMES With only one letterman returning and a host of green material, lldr. Kelley faced a very difficult problem in molding together a Winning football team. The team improved steadily as is shown by their last game, a 33-0 slaughter of Willimantic. To start their poor season Manchester was defeated 13-0 at Leavenworth in a night game. Then came a 33-0 defeat at Bristol which Was followed by a 22-6 defeat at the hands of West Hartford. In a hard fought game at Manchester, East Hartford was de- feated 6-0, but at Meriden our home forces were crushed 43-0. COUGHLIN MUHHgE7'1DURWOOD MILLER Middletown then defeated the locals 28-0. In this 1946 finale hianchesterls gridiron forces trampled out a 33-0 victory of Willi- mantic. It was not until this last game that Manchester was able to hit the stride of which they were capable. The team Was riddled throughout the season by injuries which affected the team play of the varsity squad. The l94-7 varsity football combination should be a vastly improved unit with four lettermen returning and a season's experi- ence under their belts. Co-captains elect for next year are Tom Robinson and George Kelley. We now refer to Iheorem lzunzpty-dumplyf' CROSS COUNTRY Bark Row: J. Coughlin, A. Anderson, R. Wochna, P. Grady, C.

Other lfanchester victims were Cheney Tech, 16-55 East Hartford, 6-35 and Rock- ville, 1-2. At times the local outfit played championship brand of ball but then they lapsed back to a very loose defense which ended in eleven defeats. Jim McCurr5f, the 1947 captain-elect with seven returning lettermen and the help of a few new players should have a very good season to look forward to. SOCCER The lwanchester soccer team opened the 1946 season a very green and unready team and as a result weren't able to turn in a win in their first five games. However, after about a month of steady practice following their first encounter, the Red and White booters downed the favored lkferiden team at lVIeriden 3-2. Then followed a thrilling scoreless battle with West Hartford, the C.C.l.L. champions. A strong Bristol team was also beaten twice by the locals, 4-1, and 2-O. The 1946 season was the most success- ful in lNI.H.S. history. After a bad start, mostly due to lack of practice, the local squad went through the last four games without a taste of defeat. With a host of veteran material returning, Captain-elect Robert Vice, should have a suc- cessful season to look forward to. C.C.l.L. runners-up in this year's league race, the 1946 soccer team, led by Alfred Gustafson, are able to look back upon a job well done. GOLF The 1946 Manchester High golf team completed a good season with a record of seven wins and seven setbacks including four wins without a loss in C.C.l.L. competition. The golfers suffered four straight setbacks, two by Norwich and two at the hands of Bulkeley before they were able to record any wins. The team suddenly came to life and scored six consecutive victories, two each over Hartford, Bristol, and West Hartford. Two of these victories were shutouts. After Newington took the local's measure twice, lVIr. Wrightis boys split a pair of matches with Weaver. This brought the season to a close for lilanchester High Golf C.C.l.L. champions.

SWIMMING The 1947 swimming team for the first time, under the coaching of Mr. L. Bedrick, enjoyed a good season. The Manchester High School tankmen Went through a schedule of nine meets compiling a record of five wins and four losses. In the season's first meet West Haven was downed by the convincing score of 48-27. In their next two starts the locals were de- feated 42-33 at Hamden and 54-21 at the hands of a power packed Bristol team. The Manchester natators then easily defeated Bulkeley and East Haven by respective scores of 44-31 and 43-32. 'The state champion Hartford Public High School swimmers were next to take the measure of Manchester to the tune of 54-21. In a C.C.I.L. clash Mid- dletown was beaten 48-27 by the locals. In closing the season a 56-19 humbling by Cros- ley, preceded a 51-24 win over Meriden. Fifty per cent of the scoring punch Will be lost in graduating free stylers, who were led by William Anderson's 63 points. Much interchanging and converting will be neces- sary to round out next yearis team to which there are only seven returning lettermen, in- cluding but one free styler. Stuart' Schreiber, this year's retiring cap- tain, will be replaced next year by John Campbell. In placing fifth out of fifteen schools in the C.I.A.C. the two outstanding local per- formances were going undefeated in the 160- yard free style relay and winning the 200 free style relay in the C.C.I.L. meet.

CHARLES WIGREN llfazzager-ERNEST The 1946 track team compiled a good record and in finishing a good season they copped the C.C.I.L. championship. Inability to score heavily in the weight events was a de- cided handicap to the Red and White squad. The tracksters started the season by taking a third place in the Indoor State Nleet, llc- Kinney breaking the State 600-yard record. Indoor competition was concluded with a win over New Britain, a loss to Hartford and second place in the Hartford Invitation Meet. In their first outdoor competition, the Captain-JOHN DONOVAN KRITZBIACHER Connecticut Relays, Manchester took the two-mile relay. In a triangular meet with Hartford and Bristol the locals took second. In a close triangular meet Weaver and New Britain edged the locals. The Manchester runners then scored C.C.I.L. victories over West Hartford and Middletown. Caught on an off day, Manchester was able to gar- ner only seven points for eighth place in the State meet. The next week, however, they won the C.C.I.L. championship by a good margin. Never despair. But if you do, work on in despair. BASKETBALL Back Row: W. Warnock, L. Day, D. Dougan, L. McClusky, J.

WII.FRED CLARKE With not one returning letterman and a great lack of experience, the lylanchester High Basketball team finished the 1946-47 season without winning a game. There was great team spirit but the team couldnlt get together to win a game. However, along the 15-game schedule, there were some exciting games. Manchester dropped two close games with Hlanager-THOMAS BAILEY Weaver 39-30 and 32-25. The best game of the year was at the local armory when lkian- chester was edged out in a thrilling game with Bleriden, 28-27. Prospects look bright for next year's team. Several lettermen and many experienced players will be back to put Rlanchester right in the midst of the race for C.C.1.L. honors. TENNIS Coach-MR. REED Captain-DOUGLAS STRAW rlfdlld-QEI'-ROBERT XIICE The 1946 tennis team won two decisions, one over Bristol and the other over Middle- town, while losing two matches each to Hart- ford and West Hartford. Bristol and Mid- dletown also took the local's measure once. The ikianchester entry in the state cham- pionship matches gained two points. NIL Emil Sollanek was selected to coach the 1947 tennis team. It is not so much where 'we stand, as in what direction 'we are going. CHEERLEADING ' M Person D. Spalding B. Turkington C.

The cheerleaders showed great spirit and enthusiasm under their energetic leader, Liz Kirkpatrick. The group did a good job in getting outiat the right time with the right cheers. Jackie Dutcher, Liz Kirpatrick, Mabel Person, and Dorothy Spalding especially helped to make the team click with their leadership and loyalty. Two practices a week kept the cheerleaders busy, as they completed one of their most sucf cessful years. So endeth these sayings. GIRLS LEADERS' CLUB The Girls Leaders' Club participated in a most enjoyable and successful year, under the direction of Miss Doris E. Cole, Girls' Physi- cal Education teacher. The purpose of the club is to train girls to assist in gym classes and with the after school sports program. To be eligible for membership a girl must have a BH average in gym, must take the required tests on rules of girls sports, and maintain at least a C average in her sub- jects. At the beginning of the year each member is placed on one of five committees of the club which are organized to carry on all ac- tivities during the year. An exciting initiation party was held in the fall-followed by a co-recreation night to which high school boys were invited. On Halloween night, the ever willing Girls Leaders volunteered to supervise games and activities at the town Halloween parties held at the different schools and recreational cen- ters. A program of individual sports was enjoyed by both the girls and their guests. During the year the girls attended four play- days at other schools and also were hostesses for two playdays held at the Rec. In March an Alumni party was held to which all former members Were invited. A playday for eighth grade grammar school girls was conducted in April and another co- recreation night was held featuring softball and volleyball in the spring. An annual outing similar to that held last year at Columbia Lake was planned for June 7th as the final activity of the year. AouA-ETTEs For the first time in the history of the M.H.S., mermaid members worked on a water ballet. Swimming to music being some- thing new, met with much enthusiasm. The program planned for the year included racing, turns, dives, stunt dives, form swim- ming, water stunts, rhythmic and formation swimming. During the year several splash parties were held, which proved to be very popular. The GIRLS' The girls participating in after school sports had a very full season this year under the direction of Miss Doris E. Cole and Miss Barbara Ditmars. This year the fall season offered tennis, soccer, and hockey for all classes in addition to archery for seniors and golf for the junior and senior girls. In the latter activity two groups of sixteen girls each received instruc- tion every week from Mr. Ben Roman at the Country Club. This new activity met with high approval. Basketball again proved popular, with the freshman and sophomore teams competing in an elimination tournament, and the junior and senior teams playing off a Round-Robin tournament. The junior and senior bowling tourna- ment took place in the early winter while girls started off their year with an initiation party for the new members, followed by a Halloween party in October and a Christmas party held in December. Club members who qualified received awards at the end of the year. Awards are based on attendance, attitude, cooperation, and swimming 176 lengths. The year's activities were brought to a close with a spring swimming party held at a nearby lake. SPORTS the freshman and sophomore tournament was held with over a hundred girls participating after the February vacation. Girls interested in badminton were again offered an oppor- tunity to participate in this sport. Practices were held for several weeks, followed by a beginners and advanced players tournament. In the spring inter-class tournaments were held in both baseball and volleyball, and as usual proved to be very popular with the girls. Archery and golf were again enjoyed by the Juniors and Seniors.
