L By RUTHE SHEEHAN We, the graduating class of 1940, of Mansfield, Massachusetts, County of Bristol, being of perfect memory and sound mind, do assert, make, and declare this to be our last will and testament, hereby revoking all former wills made by us at any time. To Mr. Merrill, our superintendent, and to Mr. Hays, our principal, we leave our sincere thanks for the kindly interest that they have taken in our welfare. To the faculty we leave the memory of a class that always came to school on Monday with their lessons well prepared. To the juniors we express our ap- preciation of the friendship they have extended to us throughout our high school days. To the sophomores we leave the example of our careers, a never-failing source of inspiration. Fred Brutcher donates a set of drums to Jeff Fuller. Few people are aware of Fred’s skill in “beating it out.” To Janet Chase, Dena Amici gives her ability “to trip the light fantastic.” Yolanda Di Monti leaves Jean Ehrlich a “Bud” on the verge of blossoming forth. Kenneth Morse surrenders his position as concert master in Mr. Kempf’s orchestra to Mary Bolton. George Goddard proves his kindness by leaving his good looks to Grant Wood, who with the aid of a bottle of peroxide should become the ‘white- headed” boy of the class. Georgia Milson leaves Mansfield High School for a period of three months, only to return in the fall for a post-graduate course. William Baxter presents a crate of pickles to all members of the High School Glee Club, in appreciation of some of those sour notes that insisted on drifting up through the ventilators. Philip Slayton reluctantly leaves a 23 certain sophomore in the care of that lady-killer, Ienello. Margaret Jones bequeathes Lydia Kashtan a copy of her diet, guaranteed to produce a slender, graceful figure like that of Hedy Lamarr. Francis DeVine promises to show Julius Kreimendahl a secret spot where he can smoke his pipe in peace. To Nancy Tuell, Edwina MacDonald leaves a sweet, soft voice, ‘‘an excellent thing in woman.” Lois Van Hoesen bequeathes a pam- phlet entitled ““The Care and Feeding of School Teachers” to Ermina Mason. Hugo Wondergem gives his home- room seat to any blushing angel who knows how to appear innocent, and yet raise Cain. To Eddie Pazsit, Mary Abreu leaves ten commandments designed to make Eddie the best behaved pupil in class. And does Eddie need them! Betty Dean bestows her pre-collegiate manners and extensive vocabulary upon Jeanne Fallon. Edrick Smith clings to the statement that “Gentlemen still prefer blondes” and advises Keena Cullen to ‘keep her chin up.” James Armfield gives up his position as an angelic, baby-faced choir boy to Eddie Bessom. Mildred Greene leaves her school- girl complexion to Alice Card. Robert St. John says farewell to school with tears in his eyes and urges Eleanor to ‘““Remember the Saint.” Louis Syat, that little man so often seen but seldom heard, leaves his un- obtrusive ways to George Bearcovitch. Irene Durkee leaves Gladys Schofield the assurance that she agrees that the ideal man must possess all three s’s— smoothness, suavity, and sophistication. To Dick Horton, Ray Engler leaves his title of “Little Boy.” Marie Collamer leaves Margaret Markt her unquenchable high spirits,
