Purdy, Treasurer CLASS HISTORY FROM Marlboro, Milton, and of course Lattintown, we came as bewildered 7th graders to the second story of Marlboro Central High to begin our illustrious career. By the end of the first year, we had sev- eral members in the band and orchestra, a few on Re-Echo staff and numerous up-and-coming athletes. As 8th graders, we gave our first social--a big success. Some of our members displayed their dramatic ability in the one act play-- Of All Things. Feeling very proud of ourselves, we became Freshmen the following fall and started a gay year with Mr. George Pearson as class advisor. The class officers were: President, Iohn Nickling Vice-President Marion Schlosserg Secretary, Helena Swartz, Treasurer, Dewitt Quick. As Freshmen we gave two suc- cessful socials. As Sophomores we were more experienced with the affairs of our class. For this year the following persons held office: President, Marion Schlosserg Vice-President, Lil Strong, Secretary, Evelyn Budel- mang Treasurer, Louis Camuglia. The two Student Council representatives of our class were Anthony Pagano and Thelma Rahm with Patty Dall Vechia as alternate. Boots gave a wonderful Halloween party for the class that fall. During this year the Sophomore English class presented a one act play en- titled the Pest Guest by Jay Tobias under the direction of Mrs. Daniel Martuscello. On May 9th the Sophomores gave a social called the Pre-Summer Fizz. When the junior class held their first class meeting the following officers were chosen for that year: President, Marion Schlosserg Vice-President, Anthony Porco, Secretary, Albert Amodeog Treasurer, Charles Weed. The two representatives were Louis Camuglia and Peter Conte. Louis's alternate was Patty Dall Vechia and Peter's alternate was Anthony Pagano. On November 10th we gave a social called The Freedom Train. In March, we chose our class 'rings and waited anxiously for their arrival. On May lst one of the most colorful events of the season was given with the aid of Miss Helen Sullivan, our class advisor. Of course,' you all lmow what this great event was? ? ? Why yes, it was the Junior Prom, The Southern Soiree ln The gym was cleverly decorated to create an outdoor effect. All those who attended said that it was one of the best proms ever to be given. Also as Juniors we took over the Re- Echo while the Senior class of 1948 was putting on their play. 8

Our two Student Council representatives are Albert Amodeo and John O'Neil. The two alternates are Florence Dawes and Lil Strong.

On De- cember the 27th the Senior class with the generous aid of Mr. Joseph Dall Vechia held a dance en- titled The Holiday Hop. Music was furnished by Ward Harrison and his orchestra and the profits went toward The Torch. During our Senior year we have helped supervise the publication of the Re-Echo, our school newspaper. On April 8th there was great excitement in the gym of Marlboro High School I Yes, you guessed it, it was the night of the Senior play, Free Advice, a three act comedy. When the curtains closed there was a great ring of applause, which surely indicated that the play was a great success. Then came graduation and many faces wet with tears. So we have completed four years of fun and hard work at M. C. H. S. 9
