JUNIOR MINUTE MEN An efficient, patriotic, reliable group of young ladies and gentlemen have in four years handled a million dollars which has bought a B-17 Flying Fortress, twenty jeeps, and a light tank. They’ve been largely responsible for continuous 100% student par- ticipation in the buying of stamps and bonds. Our basketball team places us in a prom- inent spot on the map of New England, but this aggregation gives us nation-wide rec- ognition. Yes, you're right. It’s the B. B. H.S. Junior Minute Men we're talking about. 27

CRIMSON COURIER Just before Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Graduation you probably noticed one of our classmates strolling around with one ear ring on and one off, a puzzled look in her blue eyes, and a playful smile on her wine-colored lips. No doubt that was none other than Barbara Meade, editor-in-chief of the Crimson Courier. That puzzled expression probably came from attempting to decode the sports editor’s column, the smile was most likely the result of a preview of “Grapevine” and the ear ring was, I am sure, contributed to the “Trading-Post”. At any rate, few of us will ever forget the way we all got tramp- led on by interested readers of the Courier on the day it rolled off the press. 26

{Ree (OP 1b ee Hip, two, three, four —- down the street comes a crack unit of New Bedford High School’s R. O. T. C. led by Cadet Major Armand Gagnon and accompanied by its unique drum and bugle corps. Besides teaching the boys neatness, physical fitness, courtesy, and obedience to law, Sergeant Harold G. Kendall and Lieutenant Edward S. Irwin do an excellent job of im- pressing them with the fact that one cannot lead others until he has mastered himself; however, it seems the boys are quick to learn, for it has been observed that they do quite well leading pretty, starry-eyed young ladies in charming formals over a perilously wax- ed floor at one of the year’s biggest social events, the Semi-Ann. 28
