l Senior Class Pla The Senior Class Play, Tons of Nfoney, under the direction of Mr. john S. Hofferty, was easily the high-light of the winter social season. Jimmie Spillane, the hero of the piece, had the audience roaring at his antics. Kleanth Dusopol was the beaut- eous blonde heroine and june Miller, dark and dangerous. was a tender, forgiving wife to three hus- bands. Virginia Blair, in her role of the Spinster aunt, was outstanding, and Patricia Waite as a Cockney parlour-maid, Walter Fultz as an English butler, and Joseph Meehan as the gardener did much to evoke mirth from the overflow audience. Paul Sweetser as the solicitor and Wilton Hayes and Sherrard McKenzie in their dual roles helped to complicate matters. Lillian Carroll Worked hard and faithfully as prompter, and the all-important back-stage Work was handled by Frank Reardon, Mildred Royce, Virginia Gleason, Robert Leader, Ross Connor, William Martinez, and Herbert Olson. i23l

Bowling Club The Bowling Club, under the direction of Mr. Julius Sylvia, meets every Wednesday, Thurdsay, and Friday at the Norfolk Bowling Alley. This year the total membership, including boys and girls, was about 180. Mr. Walter Warriner had charge of the boys. In past years the club has participated in tournaments and competitions, and it also held an outing at Nantasket at the end of each season, but this year, due to present war conditions, such plans were curtailed. Outstanding senior bowlers were David Mac- Kinnell with a high three string score of 325, Shirley Jackson with a high three string score of 318, and Miriam Harding with a high single string score of 120. The popularity of this activity is evidenced by the fact that the membership of the club seldom decreases and the enthusiasm of the bowlers continues throughout the entire season. i271

During the winter months the auditorium was kept open during all three recesses. Miriam Harding, Patricia Waite, Lois Stimart and Lillian Carroll were overseers. However, they admit that the assistance of Mr. MacDonald and the twelfth grade boys was invaluable. jean Finlay, with the help of Miss Connick and Mrs. Ford, has been supervising a Red Cross class in knitting. From this class has come one large afghan and many knitted garments for the boys in Service. Three interesting lecturers have been brought to the school through the club. The annual dance, held for the first time in the gym, was voted the best yet.
