H. S. Are ones which you can easily guess. For plenty of laughs and lots of fun We take L'il Abner-he's the one. Come one, come all and sing the song- Buttons and Bows! You can't go wrong. It heads the seniors' list this year: This is the one we like to hear. When dining and dancing the band you'll approve Is Vaughn Monroe-he's in the groove. And for the soap we think is right We want Ivory-it floats! It's white! Of all the flowers in this race It's the fair red rose that takes first place. For a singer with charm and plenty of wit, We choose Bing Crosby: he's always a hit A star that brightly shines today Is Ingrid Bergman: she steals the play. On Gregory Peck we're sure you'll agree: For a handsome gallant actor is he. For drama, mystery, and cheer The program we like the best to hear, And listen to when our work is done- Lux Radio Theater is the one. The subject English is on the beam: That's why it rated our high esteem. For notes so sweet the man we greet Is Irving Berlin: he can't be beat. Neither blonde nor auburn hair has gained It's still brunette that our hearts enchained. And for the movie that we acclaim, The Best Years of Our Lives gains fame. Life is the magazine to buy: Ask the seniors-they'11 tell you why! We'll pack the stands and raise the score Before our favorite game is o'er. Basketball has had its Day- That's why the seniors voted this way. When reading this rhyme you may remember The '49 class-when you were a member. And as you recall the days gone by, A tear may glisten in your eye. -Gladys White 49 42 J 'Nad 5 e lst Row-lLeft to right?-V. Oleksinski, I. Alves, C. Corbett, I. Marcel, B. Gibson. M. Forde, G.

HIGH SCHOOL WORLD Appearing in the Manchester Evening Hera1d , under the direction of Miss Helen Estes, faculty adviser, and Iennifer Rowley, Editor-in-Chief, the High School World published its weekly account of school activities. Recognition was given to students who excelled scholastically, athletically, or in extra-curricular activities. All assemblies and other school news of interest were covered by the World reporters. Meetings were held every Friday morning, during which previous publica- tions were discussed, and assignments were made. Group interviews were carried on. Delegates were sent, as usual, in October to the Connecticut Scholastic Press Conference, held this year at Hartford. 46 r i -,,. . QUILL CLUB The Quill staff has promoted interest in creative writing. The magazine, edited by its members, gives an opportunity to students throughout the school to read some of the best work produced in the literary field by students. The staff, which consisted of about twenty members, was under the direc- tion of Miss Marion Casey. Manuscripts are read and discussed and general work was done on the magazine during the weekly meetings. The staff sponsored an annual competition for the best poetry and prose written by Manchester High School students, with separate prizes for upper and lower classmen. lst Row-lLett to right?-M.

The year opened with an enjoyable initiation party at Center Springs Lodge. The Art Club had many new features this year, among which was an Art Colony Day. Art Club members from several neighboring schools met with Manchester's Art Club to draw and to exchange notes. The club members visited the Hartford Art School, the Randall School, and the Art School of Fashion in Hartford. Besides the annual visit to Avery Memorial Museum, the club attended a special art exhibit at New Britain State Teachers College. Professor Charles Robertson also visited the club in February when he presented an interesting vocational guidance talk. Studio meetings were devoted to work in various media, including oils, wetar colors, charcoal. frescols, and pencil. 48 ART SERVICE SQUAD The Art Service Squad, or the Above 90 Club, had a successful cmd pros- perous year under the leadership of Miss Hope Henderson. This worthwhile club deserves much praise for the tasks it has accom- plished this year. The squad can be credited for the appealing decorations at the High School Prom, for the well done posters around M. H. S., and many other artistic jobs. lst Row-QLeit to right?-V. Oleksinski, I.

SENIOR Y-TEENS Senior Y-Teens, under the direction of Miss Doris Kibbe and Mrs. Richard Carpenter, had a very successful year. Y-Teens, which is a high school branch of the Y. W. C. A., seeks to provide a club that demands no specific skill except the desire to become skilled in friendliness. Y-Teens provides an opportunity for service to the community through its collection for the cancer fund and for service to foreign areas through CARE packages. Y-Teens' five committees are Service, Personal Interest, Social, Member- ship, and Program. The Social Committee opened the year with a camp fire at Center Springs Lodge. They held picnics, square dancing, and a spring formal, in addition to the more serious projects. The girls made novelty snow-men at Christmas time, and candy, for the annual Y. W. C. A. sale, was also made. Another Christmas project was caroling for shut-ins. Money for the club was earned by selling sports pins and buttons. Pro- grams of special interest at meetings were provided by means of panels, forums, movies, and speakers. I lst Row-lLeft to rightl-Miss White, B. Yurkshot. V. Iohnson, B. Quilitch, M. Lynch, N.

IUNIOB HI-Y The purpose of Iunior Hi-Y, organized this year for boys in the freshmen and sophomore classes, under the direction of Mr. George Emmerling, is to develop high standards of Christian character and good fellowship through promotion of worthwhile activities in the school and the community. Although this has been its first year, the club has been very active. They have had many speakers, among them Mr. Edson Bailey and Mr. Elmer Thiennees, executive-secretary of Hartford County Y. M. C. A. The boys took part in the Hi-Y basketball tournament for all Hi-Y's in Hartford County. The club visited Wethersfield Prison on a field trip. 53 FRENCH CLUBS The French classes organized as clubs have met twice a month. Club procedure is carried on entirely in French. The programs planned by the committees, according to suggestions from members, have included talks on French life and on France in America, skits based on class readings, games, movies of France, and conversational practice. The club meetings increased the students' knowledge of France and of its people as well as their ability to use the spoken language. 54 SPANISH CLUBS The second and third year Spanish Clubs have had sev- eral combined meetings with the French Clubs in order to use the new visual aid equipment. This also fostered among the students a spirit of tolerance for better relations among nations. Miss Low showed her own movies, taken during her 1948 summer tour of France and England, and Miss Todd showed colored slides of Mexico and South America. During the year the language clubs planned three French and three Spanish speaking movies. Holiday programs, improvised radio programs, Spanish records, songs, and games have helped to vitalize Spanish for the students. Other club programs have supplemented the regular class work through oral reports, translations of proclamations, Span- ish articles from Revista Hotaria and Selecciones del Reader's Digest, original dialogues and skits containing every day Span- ish conversation and events. These activities enlivened vocabu- lary, and broadened the students' knowledge of Spanish life and civilization. '17 55 lst Row--lLeft to right?-A. Riker C. Whitcher, A. Waddell. N. LaFontaine, I.

SOCK AND BUSKIN The forecast of a somewhat wide and varied schedule found Sock and Buskin once again ready to embark upon the year 1949, with a very enthusiastic group of members under th esupervision of Mrs. Helen Page Skinner, the club's adviser. The usual activities of the club were the presentation of a num- ber of one-act plays directed by the National Thespian Society members from Sock and Buskin. Among some of the plays pre- sented were The French Maid and the Phonographn, The Wonder Hat , Sariel , and Where's That Report Card? In November the club presented an original musical comedy, 'The Forty-Niners , before an assembly of the school, dedicated to the senior class. p ,,. A large group of members from the club traveled to New York to witness the presentation of the musical comedy, C Where's Charley? , starring Ray Bolger. After the performance they dined at Sardis', a well-known theatrical restaurant, where they met Bay Bolger. They also interviewed him backstage, receiving many important points on drama. Everyone who attended agreed that it was a worthwhile and memorable occasion. A romantic comedy, entitled Pride and Prejudice , was very successfully presented before the public in February as their annual three-act play. Sock and Buskin also presented a one-act play, Heat Lightning , at the Connecticut Drama Festival held at New Britain Teachers College in April. The formal initiative dance very successfully concluded another year for Sock and Buskin. PAINT AND POWDER Paint and Powder, the freshman-sophomore dramatic club, enjoyed a very successful and interesting year. Under the supervision of the club's advisers, Miss Anna McGuire and Miss Isabel Worth, the old and newly initiated mem- bers directed and presented one-act plays before the club at their meetings, held twice a month. A few of the humorous plays presented were Paul Splits the Atom , Buddy's Exciting Night , and The Boy On the Meadow . The mem- bers also held panel discussions and heard speakers discuss important topics on drama technique. A few members of the club took the trip to New York, along with the Sock and Buskin members, to witness the presentation of Where's Charley? starring Ray Bolger. This experience was very much enjoyed by all who attended. Besides presenting a one-act play, Accent on Youth , before Sock and Buskin, the junior-senior dramatic club, the annual public performance of three one-act plays entitled Bill of Fare , The Heritage of Wimpole Street , and The Ghost in the Green Gown were successfully presented in April. The annual picnic at Columbia Lake, an enjoyable occasion, concluded the year's activities. lst Row-4Left to rightl--D. Motycka D. Stone, M, Beach, R. Bohlin, D. Dufiy, I. Bell, C. Wilson, F.

Mr. Vaders. BAND A must in every good high school is a band. Manchester is very fortunate in having one of the best high school bands in the state. Composed of some forty-eight student members, the band is led by Mr. William Vaders. It has taken a large part in school activities and has helped to make Manchester High School one of the most musical schools in Connecticut. Some of the activities of the band this year were playing at all the school football and basketball games, and giving several concerts for both public and student entertainment. This year, for the first time, the band played at out-of-town games. Among the concerts given were those at Manchester Green, and an instrumental concert that was given for elemen- tary grade schools in order to raise keener interest of those students in instrumental music. At Christmas, the band formed a brass quartet, which accompanied the annual Christmas caroling in the school halls. A concert was later given at a Rockville High School assembly. The Band took part in both the Memorial Day and Armistice Day parades. The two high- lights of the year which topped off a well-rounded program of entertainment were the participation in the Annual Spring Concert and in the State Band Festival at the University of Connecticut. 58 ORCHESTRA G. Albert Pearson directed the orchestra and under his supervision it enjoyed a very successful year. The orchestra played at all the school assemblies, Parents' Night in Nov- ember, and also participated in the Christmas Concert in December. Representatives from the orchestra took part in the All State Orchestra in November. They presented a concert for Barnard and Nathan Hale Schools and participated in other outside concerts. The orchestra attended the Orchestra Festival at the University of Connecticut and took part in the Spring Concert. The orchestra wound up the year by playing at the graduation exercises in Iune. lst How-tLeft to right?-E. Tediord, C. Estey, M. Hatfield, E. Williams, B. Prior, E. Hussey. R. Sims, D.

The Student Council organizes and administers the Student Activity Association. It sponsors drives such as the Iunior Red Cross, Christmas Seals, Library Tag Day, and any other student endeavors. The annual High School Prom was one of the highlights of the year, under the sponsorship of the Student Council. The students have also enjoyed many sport dances under the supervision of the Social Committee of the Council throughout the year. With a democratic student government as its aim, the Manchester High School Student Council has again this year served the student body efficiently and successfully. 1st Row-4Lett to rightl-I.

CURRENT AFFAIRS CLUB Mr. Lewis Piper again led the Current Affairs Club in a busy and eventful year. Beginning the year with spirit and zest, the Current Affair members conducted the high school election. Previous to the election, every member in the club went to freshmen and sophomore home rooms, explaining and empha- sizing the necessity of voting. Weekly debates and discussions were held, presided over by the president. Research work on topics was done volun- tarily by different students each week. Members were invited to many outside public functions and were fortunate in hearing many excellent speakers give talks on up-to-date topics. The club again joined the Foreign Policy Association and participated in two Parade of Youth Forums. Careful and in- tensive study and discussion was given to many important questions during the year. Among them were the race problem and the problem of the United Uations vs. World Federal Government. - To complete a well-rounded year of fun and work, the club visited the State Legislature in April. 64 1.4-7,,.f.Yj fr 'rr' cn , .

DEBATING SOCIETY A club which has helped many students to become better acquainted, and to be more skilled in the art of public speak- ing, is the Debating Society. Composed of thirty members, the club has made much progress this year. This may well be due to the efforts of Mr. Hartwell and Mr. Dougherty, faculty advisers, as well as all the club members. Some of the club's many activities this year were: a debate in the school assembly on the possibilities of the presidential candidates: a debate at the Hartford Clinic on World Federa- tion: and a debate which was held after Christmas at North- ampton, Massachusetts, with Hadley High School and a few Connecticut High Schools. The club met every Tuesday morning in order to discuss other debates, to practice debating, and to learn new tech- niques in debating. 65 Qi? 'DB lst How-fLett to rightl-E. Finn, H. Griffin, A.

CHESS CLUB 9 A newcomer on the Manchester High School extra-curricular scene this year is the Chess Club, organized to teach beginners how to play chess and to develop the skill of those who already know how to play. Games are played during the meetings, under the direction of Faculty Adviser Robert Fenn. Most of the twenty members of the club were veteran chess players when they joined, and the rest quickly learned to play. Organizing a team and playing with other schools was Chess Club's goal for the year. 68 LIBRARY CLUB Working in the school library and attending social functions, the Library Pages have completed a busy year. In Manchester High School's most successful Tag Day, the Pages col- lected S90.00, to be used to buy new books for the library. With the Art Club, the Pages held their annual initiation party at Center Springs. Junior and senior members attended a library conference in Centinel Hill Hall at G. Fox and Company and visited the State Capitol and the State Library. Spending at least two periods a week in the library, the Pages learn to file cards, shelve books, make posters, arrange bulletin displays, take care of incoming- and outgoing books, and help students to find research material. lst Bow-iLelt to right?-B.

Despite its 2-4-2 record, Manchester, in 1948, produced one of the best teams to come out of the local Alma Mater. The team was well balanced, and had depth in the line. The only thing the club lacked, was depth in the backfield. The 1ocal's only victims were Meriden and Middletown who were beaten by scores of 20-0 and 25-6, respectively. The four losses were at the hands of Leavenworth, 6-9: East Hartford, 25-13: West Hartford, 20-13: and Windham, 39- 15. The two ties resulted with Hamden and Bristol. The old superstition of the number 13 being unlucky appeared to have come true as far as the locals were concerned. The locals in Q -vm lost to East Hartford 25-13 on October 15, and never won a game after this. The next two games the locals wound up the short end of the scores, with the score of 13. Had it not been for B. Moske's safety in the Windham game, the locals would still have been jinxed with the number 13. The backfield of B. Flaherty, B. Moske, B. Buckmister and H. Burbank carried the locals through the entire season, with the help of reserve back Frank Vozzolo. Triple threat Ronald Buckmister bore the brunt of the locals offense. Buckmister carried the ball five out of every eight chances. The line backing up of B. Moske was superb, while G. Agostinelli's line-play was outstanding. Pilot Red Flah- erty's quarterbacking pulled the locals out of many jams. The Bed and White's opponents outscored the locals by 10 points: Manchester made 118 points to the opposition's 128. . Lettermen lost to graduation include: R. Buckmister, H. Burbank, B. Flaherty, B. Moske, G. Agostinelli, A. Grant, M. Warren, A. Rogers, T. Shea, E. Willard, E. Doggart, R. Krause, and retiring captain, Tony Turkington, who re- linquishes the reins to Leon Botteron. 72 SOCCER A t Playing against teams out of their class during the first part of the season, the Manchester High School soccer team found themselves during mid-season to finish, going away, with a record of 4-4-l, and second in the C. C. I. L. standings. Hall won the first game, 3-2. This loss coupled with a l-l tie with Bristol. the following week, proved to be the downfall of the locals. Wethersfield then took the measure of the Red and White, 2-l. The next scheduled game was with Meriden. Because of rain the game was postponed to October 30. The locals won this game 4-O, with Captain Tommy Stevenson scoring all the goals. Before the Meriden win, which was the first of the season, Ellsworth and Wethersfield defeated the locals 4-0 and 3-2 respectively. West Hartford and Bristol were the next victims of the locals. They were beaten to the tune of l-O and 3-l respectively. The season ended with a 4-2 romp over Meriden. A total of 18 points were scored by the Red and White as compared to 16 for the opposition. Captain Tommy Stevenson led all scorers, in addition to being top C. C. I. L. scorer with 8 goals. Donald Hubbard, Charles Mirucki, and Morris Silverstein were next with 3 apiece. Harold Symington scored the other goal. The forward line, composed of H. Symington, T. Stevenson, C. Mirucki, D. Hubbard, and M. Silverstein, scored all the goals, and will be lost by gradua- tion. Other graduating lettermen include M. Danahy, G. Garbarini, N. McKee, D. Behrend, R. Robertson, and I. Trudeau. The remaining lettermen are I. Iamonaco, S. Mirucki, W. Sheekey, B. Osgood, A. Morgan, C. Pickerel, R. Foss, P. Gunas, and Manager R. Vignone. The team, as a whole, played well, with the inspired playing of Tommy Stevenson and the miraculous saves of goaly Pete Gunas, outstanding. lst Row-tLeft to rightb-W. Sheeky, S, Mirucki, C.

L. title by a 41-34 verdict over Middletown on February 22, and compiling a record of five wins and three losses. The climax of the season came with the meet against Middletown at the Rec pool. The meet was close all the way and was undecided until the last event-the 160-yard freestyle relay. The score before the event was 33-30, Manchester. The local tankmen needed to win the event if they were to win the C. C. I. L. The same situation had presented itself once before. This was last year when the locals were battling it out with this same Middletown team for the C. C. I. L. crown, only last year Middletown won. This time it was different. The relay team of E. Anderson, R. Foss, R. Harris, and T. Booth sped the dis- tance in near record time to defeat Middletown by half a lap and to win the C. C. I. L. crown. The Red and White ducks lost only to mighty Hartford Public and Crosby. by scores of 39Vz-35W and 48-27, respectively. Wins were over Bristol 38-372 Hamden 41-34: Meriden 53-227 Bulkeley 46-29: and Middletown 41-34. Three new records were established. The 120 yard medley relay record was broken three different times. The final record established was l:ll.2, done by I. Panciera, F. Vozzolo, and P. Turkington on February ll, 1949 against Meriden. Frank Vozzolo broke the 100 yard breaststroke record no less than four different times over the season's span. His final time was 1:l0.8 on February ll, against Meriden. The third record was set by Whitey Fidler when he sped the +220 yard freestyle distance in the time of 2:35.4 chopping six tenths of a second off the old record of 2:36. The prospects are bright for next year with only one letterman- Tony Turkington-lost to graduation. The locals, under their new coach, Richard Sollanek, should have another bang-up season. 76 lst Row CLeft to rightl I Hubbard, E. Fogarty, C. Mikolowsky, L. Day, D. Hubbard, H.

GIRLS LEADERS' CLUB During the past year, under the direction of Miss Iulia Case, the Girls Leaders' Club enjoyed a most successful season. The club is composed of girls from the sophomore, junior and senior classes. Regular meetings are held on Tuesdays during the eighth period. The officers of the club are elected by a popular vote. Activities that provided recreation for the club were a party to initiate the new members, an alumna party, and play days and sports days in which the girls took part at other schools and acted as hostesses to these same schools. These athletic maidens held two Co-Rec nights this year. High school boys were invited to these functions, during which games such as bowling, bad- minton, darts, shuffleboard, ping pong, and volleyball were played. After the evening's entertainment, refreshments were enjoyed. The club went to a basketball play day in New Britain in February, to a volleyball play day in New Britain in March, to a square dance play day in Wethersfield in April, and to a softball play day in West Hartford in May. A service which the girls willingly did for the community was helping to supervise children's games at the local Hallowe'en parties sponsored by the American Legion. To start off the new year ,the Leaders, in conjunction with the Aqua-ettes, held a play day to which seven schools in the C. l.A.C. region were invited to send representatives. Two new features that the club voted for were an official Leaders' sweater and emblem. Eligibility in the club requires the maintenance of at least an average of C in school subjects and a B average in gymnastics. A girl must successfully pass the entrance test on rules of extra-curricular sports in order to be admitted into the club. The chief aim of the club is to help girls to gain leadership ability. They have aided Miss Lynch at the elementary schools by teaching the children to square dance, social dance, and play volleyball and softball. The girls also assisted the teachers in the gym classes at the high school. When the school year ends, each girl receives fifty points towards her athletic credits if she has actively participated in the club and also shown her leadership ability. The Aqua-ettes, or girls' swimming club, could be heard splashing around the pool at the recreation building every Wednesday dur- ing the past year. Admission to the club was based on a competitive test of an individual's skill and endurance in the water. These mermaids planned a full schedule for the year. During the season different swim- ming skills were practiced, such as: the back crawl: front crawl: elementary back stroke: the side stroke: and the butterfly breast stroke. The members also improved their forms of diving, which included the front jack, the front dive, the back dive, and the racing dive. Intennit- tently, the Aqua-ettes did rhythmic swimming and formations to the tunes of recorded music which provided a lively atmosphere during the meetings. Also included in their program were AQUA-ETTES lst Row-fLeit to right-I. Burr N. Bunzel. M. Hobson, F. Brit ten, I. Lathrop, I. Belcher, L Hoaglund, I. Iversen. Znd Row-A. King, I.

To see out- standing swimmers and divers, the club plan- ned trips to nearby college swim meets. At the beginning of the new year, the Aqua- ettes, in conjunction with the Grils Leaders' Club, sponsored a play-day, to which seven schools in the C. I. A. C. region were invited to send representatives. One of the goals which each member worked to obtain was earning the winged This was achieved when a member completed the required 176 lengths, provided that she also qualified in participation and swimming skills. Old members who completed the requirements received a star to add to their CHEERLEADERS The Cheerleaders did a grand job in sup- porting the football and basketball teams this year. They held an outdoor rally in the fall to introduce new cheers. Later in the winter, they held an indoor rally to introduce new cheers for basketball. Among the new cheers were: We've got the coach , Alemen , Turn on the switch , The stutter cheer, Go! Go!, Rah! Rah!, and Give us a T . They won school support immediately when showing each new cheer, and have done much to bring up the school's, as well as the team's morale, at every game. With the able leadership of their captain, Ioan Belcher, and practicing twice a week all fall and winter, the cheerleaders did magnifi- cent work. CHEERLEADERS C. Whitcher, L. Gagnon, C.
