Searles High S hool 1942 GiaM, ULtioJiy, KERE it is June, 1942, dear Diary, and il seems just yesterday that we for the first time came through the oaken portals of our high school 7(G as Sophomores. Yes. dear diary, we have won the success that only perseverence can bring. Our high school years have fled all too rapidly and made most of us wish we could turn back the clock to that day in September when we first made our acquaintance with the Edward F. Searles High School and its faculty. But before we record this final thought, let us re- live the experiences of our past three high school years. I pon entering our Sophomore year, we found that we, the Class of 1942, were considered lower classmen ' ' by the Juniors and Seniors. A few weeks ol confusion followed. Some of us can remember ourselves as flustered Sophomores running around striving to find our various rooms. With the assistance of some upper classmen and our teachers, we did, finally, get tilings running as smoothly as the proverbial clock, and school was well under way. We found at our first assembly that we were faced with the ordeal of electing class officers. This we ably surmounted and as a result the follow- ing officers were elected to guide the class during our Sophomore year: president, Burton Nicols; vice president, Tom Galloway; secretary, Nancy Corless; and treasurer, Barbara Dodge. In October, the annual Sophomore Reception was held; at this time, we were officially welcomed to the high school by the class of ' 40. Dancing was enjoyed to the music of Louis Bruno and his orchestra. A fine entertain- ment and refreshments were the highlights of the evening. That fall and winter, we dug into our studies with energy. With the com- ing of March, we held our own Sophomore Party in the Central School Hall. A fine program of entertainment was offered and dancing was enjoyed by all. One of the features of the evening was a drum solo by our principal, Mr. Skillings. With the completion of our Sophomore year, we found ourselves one year nearer to our goal, graduation. Our first assembly in our Junior year was to elect class officers. We elected Tim Galloway as president, George Garrity as vice president, Ted Carleton as secretary, and re-elected Barbara Dodge as treasurer. 56 1942 Edward F. Searles High School With our Junior year, came the thrill of adopting our class ring. By a majority vote, our class chose a plain gold ring on which was mounted an emblem of the Searles Tower. This ring will, in the years to come, serve as a reminder of our pleasant high school years. We labored through the following months and suddenly realized that it was time to announce the winner of the Washington and Franklin medal. To Evelyn Griffin went this award for attaining the highest rank in history. Many other members of our class were, at this time, commended for their excellent work in this subject. We left our studies in the background to plan our Junior Party. Excel- lent entertainment, an exceptionally large and gay crowd, and music by Walter Coorman made the evening a memorable one. With the completion of our Sophomore and Junior years, we realized that we were well on our way toward graduating. We redoubled our efforts so as to make our Senior year the most successful of all years. We also vowed to be one hundred per cent rooters in all our class activities. With this thought in mind, we planned the reception to be given the new Sophomores. This affair was one of the most successful events of the whole year. The party was held in the Central School Hall with music for danc- ing furnished by Ray Carter ' s orchestra. Every Sophomore girl who at- tended was given a carnation. A play, Clementine, with Harry Briggs taking the leading role, added to the hilarity of the evening. The next few months were one of keen competition for the roles in the Senior Play. The Phantom Tiger ' was presented in December to a capac- ity house at the Central School Hall. Without the least boasting on our part, we may safely say that its presentation was considered one of the best performances ever given by the pupils of Methuen High. Between the acts the Methuen High School Orchestra, under the direction of Walter Pearson, played fine selections. In January, we held our Senior Party at the Central School Hall. Unlike other parties, this affair was campus style. Each girl wore her smoothest sweater and skirt, while every boy wore his flashiest sports jacket and socks. To Claire Pollard went the title of Sweater Girl. Then into our midst came death to take from us our beloved teacher, Miss Uorice Lord, dean of girls and head of the French Department. Miss Lord was a true friend and counselor to each of us and her memory will ever serve as an inspiration to us down through the years. We launched our annual magazine drive to help defray the expense of our class book. The drive was outstandingly successful: and to Mr. Elwell ' s 57 Knw i;n !■ ' . Searles High School L942 home room once more went the prize for bringing in the most subscriptions. Our Senior girls, determined to do their bil toward National Defense, look a First i l Course. The instructor oi the course was our school nurse. Miss Eva I ' m ah. On March 20, we held our 36th annual Military Ball. The feature of the ! (. company. Music was furnished by Roland Russell ' s orchestra. Jackson, which ended with the participants marching under upheld sabres. Tin- drill competition between members ol companies A. B, and C was won evening was the grand march led by Major Gordon Wetmore and Pauline At an assembly, we selected Barbara Dodge as the Methuen High repre- sentative to the Daughters of the American Revolution Convention held in Boston. Barbara was chosen because of her good citizenship and coopera- tion with the faculh . June came altogether too quickly, and with June came the Senior Prom, the last social event of the Seniors. This event was well attended and fur- nished us with main happy memories for the years to come. Now, dear diary, we have come to that turn in life ' s road where we must establish ourselves in our chosen fields. High school careers are left be- hind; and to the class of ' 43, we leave this, our history, a challenge. — Rita Coelho 58 1942 Edward F. Searles High School Q£aM PAopdecy Boston Interior of train from Boston to Methuen Grand Central Methuen Time: June 7, 1952 Event: Going to Class Reunion Scene 1 Scene 2 Scene 3 ' in Bob: Pardon me, miss, are these your gloves? Well, if it isn ' t Shirley Trumpold! Are you going to the class reunion tonight too? Shirley: Why yes, I am going to the reunion, but I don ' t seem to recog- nize you. Bob: You don ' t remember an old friend? I guess ten years has done something to me. That ' s married life for you. Shirley: Now I remember; we did the class prophecy together. It ' s great to meet someone from the home town whom you haven ' t seen for a dog ' s age. You ' re Bob Graichen. Bob: Speaking of dogs, I hear that Fernald Fitzpatrick is the new dog catcher in Methuen. What are you doing in Boston? Shirler: I ' m the buyer for Norman Samel ' s Fashion Salon on Tremont Street. Norma Rushforth and Marjorie Appleyard work there as models. What are you doing here? Bob: I ' m in the wholesale tobacco business. George LaRoche is the auctioneer. I was just going to the station to find out what time the next train leaves for Methuen. Shirley: No doubt we shall meet a lot of old acquaintenances at the re- union tonight. I see that Joe Sholik is catering at the banquet. Some of the waitresses are Rose Bonnano, Mildred McCarthy, Bernice Hofeman, Adel Matses and Catherine Langille. John Privitera ' s orchestra is furnish- ing the music, and his featured blues singer is Flora Copetta. I hear that many of his songs are written by Claire Quinn and Barbara Renaud. Joe Nicolosi will do a specialty dance on roller skates and two star pupils from Amanda Turchi ' s dancing school will also perform. Bob: I suppose you received an edition of the reunion newspaper that Donald, Scoop, Morrison, now the editor of the Methuen Chronicle, pub- lished for this special occasion. The reporters, Bertha Morley, Ruth Lumb, and Eleanor Macfarlane, wrote up all the news about the old gang. While 59 Edward I ' . Searles High S hool 1942 we are waiting for the train, lei s gel a lunch al the tea room around the corner run 1 Shirley Lace) and Mar) Malcolm, and look over the news. Shirley : Oh Bob! l n t thai Tommy Galloway standing in the doorway oi that new store. Babyland? It looks as if he is using his high pressure salesmanship on Stella Bajor and Mildred Marchlik. Tommy always could -ell anything. Bob: There is Barbara Caplan ' s driving school. 1 heard that Ruth lloltzman, her star pupil, got a ticket for speeding from state trouper Se- bastiano DiNoto. Well, here is the tea room. Let ' s sit near the door so we can watch the passersby. Doesn ' t that look like Corinne Pelletier and Edith Merrill at that table? If I ' m not mistaken, that is Milton Baker peek- ing out of the kitchen door. He must be the pastry cook. Shirley: Why, so it is. Claire Booth, Lucille Mckenzie, and Josephine Pappalardo are waitresses. Here comes Josephine now. Bob: Listen to this. Fire chief Bob Humphrey was overcome by smoke while fighting a fire at Wilbert Smith ' s bakery. He was rescued by Donald Duhamel of Ladder 3. He was rushed to the hospital by Harry, Speed, Briggs, the ambulance driver, and was treated for cuts and burns by nurse Rose Pulsifer and Doctor Elizabeth Zuber. I knew smoke would get the best of Bob sooner or later. Shirley: Turn to the society page. Virginia Lawton and Claire Pollard served tea to the College Alumni Club. Doris Rogers, Mary Messer, Eleanor Whiteneck, and Evelyn Duemling were among those present. The guest speaker was Edith Hartwig, world famous woman skier. Bob: Do you mind if I turn to the sports page? Shirley: Just a moment. 1 just spotted something of interest. Raymond Hoyle and Claire Drouin finally made up their minds. Here ' s an announce- ment of their marriage. Oh, speaking of marriages, I hear that Roland Lodge is now a Justice of the Peace. Now, let ' s look at the sport page. Bob: It says here, Bernard Hebsch, Methuen High Athletic Director, lias h is baseball team in tip top shape and promises to give any team in the school league a real fight. Bernie was an all- ' round athlete. Shirley: Yes, he certainly was. Oh, listen! Crace Foley, the girls ' athletic director, has her soft-ball team in the pink of condition and would like to challenge the boys to a game. No doubt the girls could give them plenty to worry about. Bob: Well, let ' s not argue. Pat Fazzi has his horses in shape to win 60 1942 Edward F. Searles High School many races at Rockingham. Fred Lindner and Minas Kazangian, the coun- try ' s crack jockeys, are riding for him. Shirley: This ad at the bottom of the page says, Buy a suit at Tabel- lario ' s; Two pair of pants for the price of one. Bob: Well, I must drop in to see John when I need a new suit. Shirley: This was a tasty lunch. I think it would be wise if we left for the station now, for we have only fifteen minutes before train time. Bob: Here we are. Our train is on track three. There are Waller Feugill and Paul Morency oiling up the wheels. They must be the en- gineers. Shirley: Laurence Remick is yelling All Aboard. We had better get on. Bob: Look, Donald Harrison is collecting the tickets. Even though he is not conducting the Boston Symphony, he is still a conductor. Shirley: We are starting to move. That is the M-E-T radio station on the left. Philip DeFrates is in charge of it. Every Saturday night at 7 o ' clock Muriel and Marcia Shearer sing on Helen Bohne ' s gag program. Bob: Our class had quite a lot of talent. The bill-board up ahead is advertising a motion picture entitled We Want to be Alone, featuring William Dixon and Helen Brown. The co-stars are Simone Auclair ami Nancy Corless. It was produced by Warren Ellis. The other bill-board is advertising grape juice to keep that girlish figure, recommended by that glamour girl, Barbara Mackay. Shirley: Here is something that might interest you. Hilda Clay was lecturing before the Literary Club in New York city on her new book, Eti- quette. Richard Kerr is also in New York, having just returned from an expedition to deepest Africa. Why look! Here we are at our destination. There are. Shirley Graichen and Bertha Hemmerle at the Travelers ' Aid Information Booth. Bob: Methuen certainly has changed. Let ' s buy an evening paper and see what is new. Well, well, imagine this! Judge Thomas Shadlick is hear- ing a case between Lawrence Roberts and Louis Bourbeau. Shirley: And serving on the jury are Helen Abraham, Norma Asquith, Rose Bagdoian, Beth Ball, {Catherine Dehl, Glenna Flockerzi, Eileen Jean, Constance Hainsworth Mary Busta and Annie Hovanasian. Bob: Robert Cole is Louis Bourbeau ' s lawyer. He will have to present a strong case to outwit attorney Noyes Little . It seems that the dispute was over an apple tree between the boundary line of their respective properties. 61 Kl UD F. Searles I hell S( HOOL l ( ) 12 Shirley: Incidentally, Ernesl Wade Is iill singing that old song Don ' t Sit under the Apple Tree with Anyone Else but Me to Dorothy Whitten, SO 1 hear. Bob: That reminds me of the time Vrthur Tordoff brought his teacher an apple so that he would get better marks. The teacher took one bite and discovered a worm. 1 red Caton, who craved fishing, confiscated the apple. Poor rthur didn t get any better marks, anyway. Shirley: Let ' s walk down Broadway and see the changes. By the way, Sam Chiavaro has a taxi service at the station. Bob: There is Edna Domoradzki ' s candy shop. Some of the clerks sel- ling the sweets are Irene Kus, Julia Najuch, Virginia Howard and Lorraine Belanger. Shirley: A lot of new buildings have certainly sprung up. There is a new hank. Isn ' t that Wallace Hoffman sitting in the president ' s chair? And Rita Powers, Helen Rusiecka, Vivian Doucette and Anne Perrone are smil- ing out from behind the cashier ' s windows. Bob: A sign on the building across the street says: Buy a Beauty Rest Mattress from James Feather Company. All mattresses are tested by George Garrity. Well, George always told me he wanted a soft job. Shirley: I ' d like to go into Eleanor Snow ' s beauty salon. Claire Dolan, Eileen Lange and Lorraine Gordon give permanents with the new Magic Waver invented by Francis Prescott. Bob: A walk through the Town Hall may prove interesting. We will peek into all the offices. Sliirley: Donald Seaborne ' s name is on the door of the tax collector ' s office. Eleanor Anderson, Ruth Cody and Ruth Wilson are busily typing away. Bob: In the Town Clerk ' s office Jerome Jackson is helping Norma Bib- bins ami Allen Stacy fill out a blank. Beatrice Hart is filing some papers and Stephen Savoian is emptying the waste paper baskets. He must be the janitor Shirley. Here is the police station across the way. Let ' s take a look into the Chief ' s office. Well, well! Chief Gordon Wetmore and Captain Donald Waring are questioning someone. Stasia Mutzenard is taking his statements down in shorthand. It looks as if Norman Ellis is getting ready to use his newly invented lie detector if the fellow doesn ' t confess. Bob: Did you notice that barber shop up there? It is owned by Vartkes 62 1942 Edward F. Searles High School Takesian, of all people! That is Alan Abbott in there now getting a haircut. Alan must be home for the reunion also. His orchestra plays at Frank Haigh ' s Silver Slipper Cafe in Hollywood. Charles Haddad is the violin- ist and Louise Bullock, the drummer. Shirley: Oh! Wasn ' t that Admiral Philip Gunter and Rear Admiral William Bamber who just rode past in that swanky car? We may be able to find some more information in the town ' s yearly report book. I picked up a copy while we were in the town hall. Here ' s a list of the teachers: Doro- thy Austin, Rita Coehlo, Chester McCallum, June Bauer, Georgia McHugh, Sylvia Graham and Kenneth Hird. The principal is Charles Dinsmore. Bob: Listen to this: Phyllis and Priscill Warburton have resigned their teaching positions to become missionaries in China. Barbara Dodge has also turned in her resignation so that she may teach at Wellesley. Evelyn Griffin, Duncan Langille, Doris Rose, Edwin Barrett, George Brackett and Pearl Beaulieu are school committee members. Shirley: Look at the sign in the window of this immense food mart. Salesman wanted. For information see manager Wallace Buya or assist- ant manager Pickles Hargreaves. ' There ' s Joseph Duffy ' s service station. His partner, Kenneth Rogers, is out front wiping the dust off Pauline Had- dad ' s new convertible coupe — license plate, Miami, Florida. Hob: What a crowd at Alan Bray ' s ice cream bar! That bright chem- istry student Emil Lange is still mixing them up behind the counter. James Healy ' s carpenter shop is right next door. Well, he always was on the level, and a square dealing fellow. Shirley: Let ' s listen to this street corner demonstration for a while. The glib tongued speaker is none other than William Beier who is demonstrating a tearless onion peeler. Elaine Burton is his smiling assistant. 1 see Gen- evieve Baltsukonis, Anna Kuzmitski and Josephine Ricci in the crowd. I do hope they are not too gullible for his persuasive sales talk. Bob: What a gorgeous display of jewelry in this window, and rather an appropriate slogan- — For your precious stones, see Albert Stone. The poster in the corner window interests me. Champion Boxing Match to- morrow night. Joseph Waitkewich, heavyweight champion, challenged by Joseph Lefebvre. That must be in the new arena. I understand that it is managed by Thomas Dorsey and Franklin Fleischman. Shirley: This interests me: Milady ' s Dress and Millinery Salon owned by Emma Patnaude and Lorraine Verette. The sales girls are Mary Coco and Catherine Pomphret. Oh! There is Michael Hazarvartian driving that elevated si reel car, and if my eyes arc not deceiving me, there are Vzard 63 l-.nw Mil) I . Si i;i i s I1k.ii School L942 Ehramjian and Virginia Sipse entering Barbara Farris ' interior decorating establishment. Bob: By tin- way, if you haven ' t already planned your vacation, Mil- dred and Valerie Jean own a deligheful little summer resort in Vermont. Simone Feugill and John Messer are the caretakers and Helen McFoughlin, Marguerite Puliafico and Barbara Flaherty are the guides there. 1 also heard that those two famous rodeo girls from Wyoming, Frances Lawton and Margaret Chadwick, spend the summer there. Shirley; There ' s a sign post which reads To the Instructors ' Flying School. That is something new in Methuen, isn ' t it? Boh: Why, yes; didn ' t you know that Richard Kiessling manages the school and his chief mechanic is Finest Matthes? Some of the instructors are Patricia Kav, Katherine Morley, Helen Turcotte and Claire Topping. His stunt flier is Shirley Mathison. Shirley: That ' s news. We still have a little time before the reunion, so 1 think Fll go over to see the girls. Boh: All right, I ' ll meet you at Ronald Binns ' Ritz Hotel and we will go to the reunion together. Shirley. That will be fine. I ' ll be waiting for you. Good bye. Bob: ' Bye. Shirley Trumpold Robert Graiehen 64 1942 Edward F. Seakles High School 9jmy, OAatCan [NCE our early days, our lives have been influenced and enriched by traditions. From the first day we entered high school until today we have found pleasure, satisfaction, and inspiration in the traditions that are an integral part of every high school career. One of these tradi- tions is the Class Day with its planting of the ivy. Today, however, we are not just following a custom; we are ready to meet the challenge of the world around us. The ivy does not allow external forces to kill its growth. It prepares to withstand strong winds by attaching itself securely. During the winter ' s cold, its sap retreats to the roots but leaves clinging to the walls the stems which mark the way for the next year ' s growth. Likewise, we who are going out from this school must grasp firmly our ambitions, and be prepared to wait if the present world crisis makes it impossible to develop our plans im- mediately. Naturally, we shall be affected by circumstances, but we should avoid complete disillusionment. The traditions that are a part of every rich and full life must be carried on, even though conditions vary. Just as the ivy slumbers during the winter to assimilate the strength it has gained during the summer, so should we, after preparing ourselves for our chosen work, take time to digest our education. Those of us who take our education too rapidly may find it difficult to adjust ourselves to world con- ditions. If we have analyzed and assimilated our education and experience we shall be more valuable to civilization when this conflict is over. It is a little-known fact that a fair growth of ivy on sound walls pro- motes dryness and warmth, reduces weathering, and adds beauty. However, an excessive growth can strangle a tree. These two facts may be applied to tradition. The preservation of sound traditions is necessary in these turbulent times to balance our lives. Too strict an adherence to tradition will mean a lack of progress. Therefore, the challenge which is put before us today is this — uphold valuable traditions, and live a full, rich life in the midst of existing world conditions. — Hilda Clay 65 l ' j vrd F.
