Memorial High School [ ] Class of Forty - Eight recommend to all his old classmates. The title is Baker ' s Rules on Parliamentary Procedure . ROBERT STAPLES, excelling in math- ematics in high school, decided to take up engineering. After graduating from M.I. T., he went to Europe to do reconstruction work. ANITA LEWIS, following through with her interest in horses, has recently opened her own riding academy. We understand she has a very profitahle business. DICK (Just let me take life easy) WESTGATE is president of his newly formed Do-Nothing Labor Party. He has succeeded in obtaining his life ' s goal ■ — not to work ! His righthand man is CARL (The Voice) DUPRE. They have an an- nual contest to see which one can do the least. There has been no winner as yet be- cause Dick and Carl are always tied. ROLAND (Farming is easy) MILLS has just sent to Washington for a patent. He plans to cross potatoes with air planes so he won ' t have to dig for them. ROBERT (I skin my own) SHAW, a successful fur-trapper in Canada, supplies beautiful furs to the movie colony and to John Powers ' models. Interesting work, says Bob. BERNARD ( School.. . ' tis a dull and end- less strife) SPARROW opened up a gar- age after graduating from a mechanics school in which he fixes everything from cars to scooters. MARY (I ' ll compete with Petty any day) STUART after completion of art school, went to work for Vogue . She is the sole designer of all the Vog ue Origin- als. ANNE (Taunton ' s my stamping ground) GOODRIDGE now tours the country as Arthur Murray ' s danc ' ng partner. In her spare time she still takes active part in those sports that gave her the title of Best Girl Athlete at M. H. S. WILBUR (Don ' t call me a farmer) HATC H is the new linesman for the New England Tel. Tel. His work, though dang- erous, is very interesting to Wilbur. JOYCE ( Framingham, here I come!) JACOBSON went to Framingham Teach- ers ' College and immediately redecorated the girls ' lounge in a modern manner, con- ducive to both study and relaxation. The school is proud of Joyce ' s ability. JOHN (I ' ll meet you in the library) DUTCHER has donated his life ' s savings to build a library for underprivileged child- ren in the slums of Chicago. He feels that every child should have the advantage of using a library as he did in M. H. S. RICHARD HINCKLEY is playing his own symphonies at Carnegie Hall. All the girls with whom he used to be seen so con- stantly at Tripp ' s during high school days are found sitting in the front row whenever Dick appears. WESTON Sonny KELLEY has set- tled down and become a conservationist. As president of the Fish and Game Club, he gives weekly talks on nothing but wild life. Which kind, Weston?? MARY LEWOCZKO took up dietetics and nursing after graduating from M. H. S. She is now in sole charge of the Shaw Home. BETTY JEAN CASWELL is singing with the Metropolitan Opera Company, and in her spare time she paints portraits in her own studio. We predicted she ' d be a suc- cess. DONALD ARCHIBALD has recently moved to Europe where he is teaching the people how to get along with Americans. He got his experience back in high school, where he always got along well with every- one. ROGER NELSON, after graduating, went to work in one of our local stores. A few years later he decided to open a store of his own. We have it on good authority that he now has a profitable business. DICK HELEEN is the largest cranberry grower in Massachusetts. He is also the most eligible bachelor. What ' s the matter, girls??? GENE MC KAY is about to realize his life ' s dream. Next week he will start work on a mural in one of New England ' s largest churches. We know he ' ll do a wonder- ful piece of work. STANLEY PILSHAW, who graduated from the University of Pennsylvania with

Memorial High School [ ]) Class of Forty - Eight Grove Street, now owns a CARD shop. See John for greeting cards for all occasions. THOMAS BUJANSKI was always so quiet in his clays at M. H. S. that we were astonished to hear that he is touring the state giving campaign speeches. After be- coming a well-known lawyer, he entered politics and is now running for governor of Massachusetts. All your old classmates will vote for you, Tommie. ANN O ' NEIL is achieving her dream of learning about life as she tours the globe lecturing on World Peace, a subject she so often talked about back in her high school clays. LORRAINE GORRIE and JOYCE HEGARTY are fashion illustrators for Seventeen in New York. With their artistic ability and love of clothes we know they 11 be a great success. FRANCIS BUZZ DOSARI. a gradu- ate of the University of Massachusetts, has taken the position of coach at Holy Cross. We hear that with his winning personality and great ability he has spurred his teams on to five undefeated seasons. EDWARD CARR must have changed his mind about retiring at twenty-one, for he is selling cars for the Ford Company. During his school clays he was so interested in his own little buggy that he now makes cars his business. High School didn ' t agree with BETTY LOU TESSIER very well and so after graduation she went to California to re- cuperate. That was several years ago — she isn ' t back yet. Guess we ' ll have to take a trip out there and see what the attraction is. MEREDITH CASWELL, after taking care of all the neighbors ' children during her high school clays, has now opened a nursing school. She is doing well. Good practice, too, Meredith. TERRY DAHLQUIST, graduating from the American University, became a history professor at De Pauw University, but he has recently given up his position to become our current Secretary of State. After making such a hit with the girls at M. H. S., DAVID OSBORNE has gone to Hollywood, where he has overcome his shy- ness and is now a popular singer, even sur- passing Frankie. GENE KRUPA has finally retired leav- ing only one ace band drummer. We re- fer, of course, to BILLY MC BANE, who is currently featured at his own night club in New York. BETTY KENDALL, who loves North Carolina, listens nightly on the radio to Mid- dleboro singer who made good in Holly- wood. She got the man she wanted. Who was your final choice, Betty??? DONNIE MITCHELL has become a church historian. Beware, girls ! It is re- ported that he is especially good on dates. ALLEN LEWIS joined the Navy, but after three years he resigned and became head of a high school agricultural depart- ment. AGNES MURDOCH became Middle- boro ' s school nurse. She states unequi- vocally that chewing gum is very bad for the teeth and prohibits any patient of hers from doing it. HENRY MAROIS, who back in high school days stated that his ambition was to become Middleboro ' s professional bum, has returned to America after travelling the world for many years. He recently be- came editor of the Hobo Nezvs. After four years of hard work, HERBIE GIBBS graduated from Northeastern Uni- versity with high honors. He then joined his friend and former classmate, DONALD ROSfiN, who graduated from Tufts. At present the} ' are engaged in an engineering project to build a series of bridges across the Nemasket River. Both GENEVA GAROFALO and JOY- CE CALDWELL have graduated from Sturdy Memorial Hospital and have stayed there to work. We hear they are both doing very well and are excellent nurses. JEAN FERSON, who wrote so many interesting articles for the Sachem, has given up her duties as Dean of Jackson College to become an author. She already has sev- eral best sellers on the market. RAYMOND BAKER, famous for his criticisms in class meetings, is now a well- known corporation lawyer. He has taken time off from his duties in Washington, D. C to write a book, which I know he would

Memorial High School Class of Forty - Eight high honors, has now moved into a little vine-covered cottage in Newton, his dream town, and has established his own business. Good luck, Stan ! FAYE BEMIS became a buyer for a certain South Middleboro concern right af- ter graduating from the University of Ver- mont, but while on a purchasing trip we hear that she was sold on marriage to a cer- tain G. I. ALICE SOUSA, who once said her am- bition was to be able to make up her mind, finally did. She went to Boston University and then came back to become a teacher here in Middleboro. We think that a Hall has more attraction, and so we suspect she may soon become one permanently. BARBARA WALL has opened a hair- dresser ' s shop. Needless to say. this is the first time that a beauty parlor has been patronized by a Mann . In partnership with her is NATALIE TURNER, another Lakeville girl. BILLY COLYIN joined the Navy right after he finished high school and has done remarkably well. In fact, we hear that he is now admiral on his own ship, the S. S. Faye. RITA BRITTON, one of our diamond- ring girls, took the trip to the altar soon after graduation, and from all reports she and Joe are now living happily ever after. GEORGE DEANE has become business editor of the Saturday Evening Post. He rides all around the country getting ads, a practice which he first became acquainted with as business manager of our own Year Book. ELAINE TANGUAY has traveled a- round the world twice, and she says she had a wonderful time. Since she did, we Dink she couldn ' t have been alone, huh, Elaine? Forest Ranger EINAR EDLUND is in Yellowstone National Park enjoying the ex- periences he looked forward to during his high school days. Einar, always a little shy, reports that the bears make excellent com- pany. ROSE SILVA became a dietician and is now working in the U. S. Department of Health in Washington. JANE FICKERT became an airline stewardess but takes time off from her duties to lead every parade in Middleboro. She gained valuable experience as head twirler for the M. H. S. band. Her chief complaint, however, is that her twirler ' s uniform is too short ; she always did want the new look, but we think the old one is O.K. as it is, Jane. MISS THERESA SHEA has become a high school librarian. A confirmed man- hater, she has broken the hearts of numerous suitors and is president of the Unmarried Women ' s Club. GEORGE STETSON has become man- ager of the hotel which he himself built. In his spare time he is also editor of the ad- vice to the lovelorn column of the Middle- boro Gazette. If he thinks one of his fan ' s problems is hopeless, he takes the girl out himself. MAL SHURTLEFF, who said that her ambition was to make a good wife for a six- foot, three-inch blonde with blue eyes, did just that. She and Joe have been voted the outstanding couple of the year. LESLIE GILL has become a world fa- mous draftsman. He recently built a new city which will replace Washington as our capital. He calls it Janehaven.
