To Our Teachers and Classmates: We, the officers of the Class of 1941, sincerely thank our teachers and class- mates for their advice and assistance during the past year. To our principal, Mr. Hays; our advisers, Miss Jones and Miss Shepard; and the entire faculty we are indeed grateful. They have given their whole-hearted support and encour- agement to all our undertakings. We appreciate the loyal co-operation we have received from our classmates and hope that we have been worthy of their choice. Sebi s Siodack: | Ge () “Cer The Class of 1941 looks with pride upon its three high-ranking students: Robert Brutcher, George Bearcovitch, and James Ingram. Bob is well known as a high-scoring basketball forward, and, also, as captain and star pitcher of the baseball team. George has won prestige as an orator and tennis player. For three years James has been a successful reporter for The Mansfield News. Bob expects to enroll at Yale Univer- sity next September. George and James plan to enter Harvard University. The Class of 1941 wishes for each of them the best that life can offer.

GE LS tory BY JAMES R. INGRAM The past three years have been momen- tous ones. During this time shattering events have occurred which may change the course of the human race. But during these same years, through the many phases of school life, thousands of high school students in America have been preparing to become better citizens of a democracy. My class, I feel, is repre- sentative of all the high. school’ classes in America that have, in democratic schools, and in democratic ways, learned the true meaning of democracy. ‘This thought has seemed to me to add a particular significance to my task of compiling the history of the Class of 1941 of Mansfield High School. When we entered High School as sopho- mores, we soon felt the need of organization, and with Miss Henchel and Mr. Richardson as our advisers, we chose Royal Patriquin, president; Robert Brutcher, vice-president ; Shirley La Har, secretary; and Helen Shea, treasurer. Soon after school opened, Coach Bassett called out the football candidates. ‘The sopho- mores who responded were Donald Hill, Patsy Flammia, Edward Bessom, Edward Nielsen, Robert Sheehan, and Arnold Quin- ham. Basketball and baseball also benefited by our athletic talent, since we furnished these sports six players—Don Hill, Edward Bessom, Robert Currivan, James Green, Robert Brutcher, Patsy Flammia, and Albert Scatolini. Perhaps the outstanding social event of that first year was the Mardi Gra, a bi-annual costume party, which is sponsored by the French and Latin clubs. We also enjoyed the meetings of the various school organizations. We were thrilled by the senior class play and by the senior reception. When June came, we realized that our first year as insignificant sophomores had come to an end; and we also realized that it had been both profitable and enjoyable. The following September we chose these officers to direct the activities of our junior year: president, James Green; vice-president, Robert Sheehan; secretary, Helen Shea; and treasurer, Shirley La Har. When Robert Sheehan left school, Patsy Flammia became vice-president. Class advisers were Mrs. Whitmore and Mr. Robinson. Thanks to the enthusiasm of Coach Andrews, the Athletic Association was organized to help create a keener school spirit and to promote further the school sports. Bob Brutcher represented our class as vice-president. Several dances which were sponsored by the A. A. were social highlights of the year to the many students who attended. II
