Robert Walker was chosen Whip , or head of the caravan. Eddie Hesford was to be Scout. Robert Caswell was put in charge of the log and the treasury. Mrs. Harnden. who had traveled the route before, and knew all the pitfalls, advised the group. Be- fore the caravan had hardly gotten on its way, the Whip, Robert Walker saw gold in other hills and left us, and then Eddie Hesford, second in command, took his place. In November of 1945 we had our first entertainment, which we called a Frolic. We all wanted to earn money, in order that we might take an interesting side trip, before we reached our destination. People came from miles around to join us in our dance. Although everyone had a good time socially, we found that we weren ' t very successful, financiall -. The year drew to a close and everyone was glad that they passed the first year of their journey without undergoing too many hardships. The second year rolled around with Doris Tondreault as Whip, Wanda Davis, Scout, and Richard Walker in charge of the log. Betty Tribou watched our finances. This year Wanda Davis had to leave us because of illness in her family back home, but promised that she would return in the near future. However, we did leave Richard Walker by the wayside. Alice Schmid took over the records and also the job as assistant whip. Miss Estabrook was elected by the group to advise us. This ear we planned to have two events to break the monotony of the trip. The group wanted to have a dance social in October 1946, which we called the Jamboree. It was certainly a success. We also had a Penny Sale in January 1947- which Mrs. Tondreault graciously sponsored. The first lap of our journey now drew to a close, and we decided that we would rest ourselves and our horses, for two months in the heat of summer. We would then resume our trek toward the settle- ment which we hoped to establish. Having rested and having gained in strength and stature, we rounded up our newly painted wagons, our fresh horses, and our cheerful looking group, and again started westward. Andy Bennett was chosen Whip and Eddie Hesford, Scout, Alice Schmid was in charge of the log, and Carmella Pino watched our finances. Mrs. Harnden again was chosen to advise us. This year we selected delegates to represent us in the Caravan Council. Andrew Bennett, Alice Schmid, and Ruth Goold were chosen. The group thought that we should buy rings to remind us in the future of this most eventful journey. The entire group agreed. A ring com- mittee was elected consisting of Andrew Bennett, Edward Hesford, Alice Schmid, Carmella Pino, Raymond Gagne, and Rita Tucker. Mr. Galven, a representative of the Balfour Company, showed us various t)pes of rings, and we decided on a plain gold ring. We also decided that our treasury was rather low, and if we were to take that important side trip to Washington, D. C. in April of 1949, we would need a great deal of money, so everyone was assessed a dollar per year for that purpose. The Norton caravan thought that they might unite with the Mansfield caravan and organize a Canteen, where the two caravans might get together and have a social once a week. Refreshments would be served. After a great deal of compromising, we finally set up the Alan-Nor Canteen, which became most popular with the younger group. Our third year was drawing to a close, and everyone was busy preparing for the greatest event of our journey — thus far the Jubilee ! Ruth Goold and Car- mella Pino were elected co-chairmen of the event. Vic Greenburg brought his rootin ' , tootin ' players, so that we might dance. We organized a decorating com- 13 mittee to decorate a barn, which we found along the way. The barn was perfect for the occasion. Everyone worked hard and the night of the Jubilee arrived. Dressed in our best bib and tucker , we all promenaded around the Boor and thought how well rewarded we were for our hard work. After another long rest, we again organized for what we hoped would be the last lap of our journey. Raymond (lagne was elected Whip, Edward Hesford assist- ant, Alice Schmid in charge of the log, and Carmella Pino watched over our Treasury. On October 8, 1948, with Doris Tondreault in charge, we staged another successful dance to which as usual Hocked caravaners from miles around. All caravans were known by their distinctive colors and ours were blue and white. The favorite flower of the caravan was the white rose. Along with the caravan colors and flower, we had chosen the motto Aim High to help inspire us on our way. In the fall of that year we decided to put on a play to entertain the caravaners. The play Hi and Sis in New York was to be presented on the big nights of December second and third. Carol Rice and Bernice McKay, who are skilled in the art of drama, offered to assist us in presenting it. The parts were given out to the members of the caravan, and intense rehearsals began. Stearns Briggs and Rita Tucker had the leading parts with Alice Schmid co-starring. The pla ' progressed beautifully, in spite of the regular duties that the cast had to perform in aiding their caravan to get ahead. The play really went off quite well, and again people came from miles aroimd just to see our play. Later that month a big shindig was held at Beverl. ' (lail ' s wagon, ui honor of the cast and crew. The members of the caravan took various side trips, in order that they might observe the different forms of government in actual operation. We had practice in running the City of Taunton, through which we passed along the way. The mem- bers of the caravan took over man ' different public positions. Eddie Hesford acted as mayor of the day and Alice Schmid as ma or of the evening. We observed Town meetings and Selectmen meetings. We isited District and Superior in action, and under the guidance of Airs. Jean Pindlater, we even went so far as to visit a prison colony, though hoping we d never need one in our Town of ( iraduation. Neverthe- less we were trying to be prepared so that we might ha e a well-formed government. After what seemed an endless time, our plans were completed for our side trip to Washington. Air. and Mrs. Irving Eulkr volunteered to take the responsibility, and accompanied those of us who were still anxious to go. The trip came up to our greatest expectations. As the journey drew to a close, awards were given to those who had worked the hardest on our four year journev. The first award was given to Ruth (loold, and the second award went to Carmella Pino. Carmella also was awarded another honor, the D.A.R. award. The group decided that the history of the caravan should be written up. Alice Schmid was chosen to do this. Earl Charest was asked to draw up a will for the members of our group, Wanda Davis to write up an account of our side trip to Washington, and Mary Whitney to predict our futures. Now we have reached the Town of (iraduation. The four years of joy and hardship have drawn to a close, and everyone is happ , though we all feel a bit of sadness in our hearts; for, some of us will probabh ' journey past this settlement which we are now establishing. We may part and go our separate ways, but we will never forget the responsibilities we have shared with each other in our journev from the City of Bewilderment to the Town of (iraduation. 14 Class Prophecy The other day 1 was engaged in my favorite pastime — day dreaming, and I had a strange dream. 1 saw an ultra-modern hospital. Coming out of the operatuig room, I saw m self as Dr. Whitne -. I called my two nurses, Betty White and Beverly Farris. We went to the laboratory to see if Ruth Goold had the cultures of my latest patient read . They were done, so we invited her to go to the theater with us. The four of us started off for the Olivier Theater, a summer play-house under the management of Marilyn King, which presented plays starring Laurence Olivier only. We were going to see Squaring the Circle, co-starring Stearns Briggs. We noticed that the proceeds of this play were to go toward the establish- ment of a new High School in Norton. After the performance we went to the Caswell Art (Galleries to see an exhibit of modern painting by Earl Charest, who ranks second only to Salvador Dali as a modern artist. Next we went to the (jypsy Tea Room, run by Betty Tribou, for afternoon tea. No, Betty said her high school romance did not pan out, so she was still looking for the perfect m.an. When we complimented Betty on her hair-do, she told us that it was done by Beverly Gale, who owned a beauty parlor across the street. At a nearby table sat the former Wanda Davis with her husband and the oldest of her ten children. A gypsy fortune teller was going from table to table with her crystal ball. Much to our surprise, who should she turn out to be but our old classmate Shirley Mohr. It seems that Shirley ' s crystal ball told her that she should go to the big city to seek her fortune instead of settling down with her high school sweetheart in Norton. Another romance gone wrong ! Shirley was glad to settle down at our table among old friends and tell us about some of our other classmates as revealed to her as she looked into her crystal ball : I see Alice Schmid sitting at a desk teaching a large class of future nurses. Rita Tucker is sitting at another table surrounded by a group of kindergarten children. The children are getting into all kinds of trouble, but Rita is especially patient because the school principal, Raymond Gagne, is in the room to see how she is conducting the class. With Raymond is his secretary, Carmella Pino, taking notes on everything she sees. Andrew Bennett, as chairman of the school committee, is also present. Out in the middle of an athletic field is Edward Hesford directing the athletic activities of the school. Shirley told us that she had heard that Eddie had made a name for himself as a member of a prominent debating team as well as being acknowledged as one of the foremost coaches of his time. Here Betty White interrupted Shirley ' s discourse to remind me that I was supposed to interview two applicants for a position as secretary, Miss Phyllis Zwolensky and Miss Doris Tondreault. ( iy former secretary, Miss Dorothy Hoare, had resigned to accept a position as secretary to the doct or who takes care of the President of the United States, Richard Weiner.) Or was Betty trying to tell me something else? All too soon me dream ended and I was brought back to reality by her reminding me that I had better return that book I borrowed, as she wanted to read it and I found myself back in good old Norton once more. Anyway, my peek into the future was fun while it lasted. 15 Class Will We, the great class of forty-nine, being of unsound mind and Igav I.

(Signed) Senior Class Earl Charest 17 Forty-Niners Travelogue On Monday April 25, twelve members of the Senior Class met Mr. and Mrs. Irvin Fuller at the High School to start our trip to Washington. All were excited with eyes shining and beautiful new clothes. We all reached Providence on time and the chaperones didn ' t have to worry. We boarded the train at 8:20 a.m.. and to add to our excitement we shared a car with Millis High School. One of the Millis boys was a born clown and tried on the girls ' hats to give us a fashion show. We had our lunches with us, so we had a wonder- fully messy picnic. On arriving at (jrand Central Station at i2:oo a.m., we walked to the H. O. Bus Terminal (which seemed to us to be at least fifteen blocks) where we deposited our suitcases and then decided to walk around town to pass two hours. During our tour we went to the Empire State Building which all of us enjoyed (except, perhaps, the few that left their stomachs at the top). I am sure Carmella was glad when our time was up. as she had a blister and was aching to sit down. We went back to the Bus Terminal where we boarded a bus that took us on a ferry to Jersey City. We didn ' t get a very good view of the Statue of Liberty, but hoped to on the way back. Finally in Jerse ' City we boarded a train which took us through the States of New Jersey. Pennsyh ania, Delaware and Maryland. Ve had a ery good dinner on the train even to the coffee that Shirley couldn ' t calm down. Undoubtedly the coffee had nerves; it shook so. We arrived at Baltimore where we met our tour guide Bill and a group of students from New Ipswich, N. H., who were to share our bus with us. Of course, no one minded, especially the girls, because there were five boys in their group. Our first stop in Washington was the Congressional Library where members of the class saw the original manuscripts of the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States. On our way to our hotel we took pictures of the beautifully illuminated Capitol Building and visited the Lincoln Memorial. When we arrived at the Hotel everyone was tired but excited. We were assigned to rooms and got into them, but didn ' t stay very long. We went roaming through the hotel until i i :oo p.m. Finally, when we thought everyone was asleep. Doris started talking, and then ever one started to talk. At i :20 Doris got up again and wrote some cards home. At 2 :oo a.m. we were all asleep. Tuesday morning everyone got up at the ungodly hour of 7 :oo a.m. to enjoy a wonderful breakfast in the Chantilly room. Breakfast consisted of scrambled eggs, burnt toast and over-fried potatoes. It was very appetizing. At 8:30 we went to the Capitol Building where the traditional picture of the group was taken. In our guided tour through the Capitol Building we were shown the right wing, which was called The Cuspidor by Will Rogers, and then to the Senate Chambers and the House of Representatives. In Statuary Hall there is a small metal plate on each side of the room. We were told to stand around one while the guide weuX to the 18 other plate and whispered. We could hear ever word she said as though she were whispering in our ears. We also saw the President ' s Private office which he uses for conferences with Senators and Representatives. From the Capitol Building we went to the Pan American Union, the Capitol of the twen ty-one South American Republics in the United States. As we went in the front door we seemed to walk into a garden. In this garden were trees of all kinds. There were two parrots — one could speak only Spanish, and even then he wouldn ' t answer Mary when she talked to him. We continued through the hot sun to Alexandria where we had a delicious lunch in the Old Club Teahouse. Following lunch we traveled along the Potomac River to Mount Vernon. Going along the Mount Vernon Memorial Highway Bill, our driver, told everyone to put his thumb on the window to feel the sensation before going over the bridge. We did this but felt nothing. After crossing the bridge Bill asked if we had felt the pain (pane)? On reaching Mount Vernon the view of the beautiful lilacs and the first sight of the White Mansion awed everyone by their beauty. In the House we saw the livingroom, library, the stud ' and bedrooms. The kitchen, separated from the main house, the smoke house, where hams were prepared, and the wash house were interest- ing to view as well as a coach in which George W shington had ridden. Continuing on down the gravel path we came to the tomb of Martha and Cieorge Washington. From there we continued on down to the wharf by the Potomac River and up to the front of the main building where there is a beautiful view of the Potomac. On the way back to Washington a stop was made at Arlington National cemetery where members visited the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, The Memorial Amphi- theater, and the Alast of the Battleship Maine. At the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier there is a guard every twenty-four hours. The guard is changed every odd hour. We were lucky enough to be there to see the beautiful ceremony. At 7:30 this same evening Mr. Wilfred (jegenhiemer, a Norton High School Alumni, met us at the hotel and conducted us to his home where we saw Milton Berle on television. We got so absorbed in the wrestling matches that it was hard to drag us awa ' . We had a delightful lunch of sandwiches, potato chips and soda. Mr. and Mrs. (legenhiemer were ' ery nice and made if a vevy enjo} able evening. On Wednesday the sun found us all up waiting for it and for breakfast to be served. The Chantilly Room was not open so we all sat in the lobby waiting sleepily. After waiting half an hour for breakfast we went down to a burnt meal again. Most of our group ate in the coffee shop. When everyone was finally through eating and on the bus it was 8:30. Bill had told us to be there at 8:00 sharp. When we arrived at the Bureau of Printing and Engraving, there were so man people ahead of us that we knew we would be late for our appointment at the F. B. 1. Building, therefore we didn ' t go in. We went to the F. B. I. Building where we met Mr. Hable, who was our guide, much to the pleasure of many girls. He showed us guns that had been picked up in many murder cases. He also told us of many cases which had been solved and of onl - one that was not solved as yet. Of course, they will find the answer someday. After leaving the F. B. I. Building we went up the Washington IVIonument in 19 the ekvator, as everyone w. s too sceptical about reaching the top by the stairs. From the top we got a beautiful view of the Capitol Building and many other spots of interest. When we arrived at the Smithsonian Institute, we were warned that only 45 minutes was to be spent in both buildings. When we first spotted the Spirit of St. Louis , Lindbergh ' s first plane, there were cries from a certain girl in the crowd OH! is that really a plane? Are you sure it won ' t fall? Of course, she was assured by a very strong handsome Charles that he would protect her. The afternoon was spent at the United States Naval Academy. We made a complete guided tour of the grounds and buildings, seeing the chapel, St. John ' s College, the old State House, Queen Ann ' s Church, and the Tomb of John Paul Jones. The evening was free. Some went to the baseball game with Mr. f uller; some to the movies with Mrs. Fuller, and three were left on good behavoir in their room. We were good, for there was no one to bother us or no one for us to bother. Thursday, April 28. The first thing in the morning was the tour that we didn ' t take Wednesday through the Bureau of Printing and Engraving. We saw how all currency is printed. We gave enough hints, but they only give out samples the second Monday of every week. We then went to the Franciscan Monastery, the Shakespearean Library and the Supreme Court Building. In the Shakespearean Library we saw a miniature of the Globe Theatre and a large model of the inside of a Shakespearean Theatre with all the balconies. Most of Thursday afternoon we spent traveling to New York where we stayed at the Victoria Hotel. In the evening we enjoyed dinner and a Broadway review at Billie Rose ' s Diamond Horseshoe. Later that evening the chaperones separated and took different groups to movies. Friday, April 2g. At 9:30 a.m. we went to the RCA Building and met a very agre eable guide, who took us through the Broadcasting studios, where we saw Jack Burch rehearsing for a show. We also saw Rita, Edward and Mrs. Fuller on tele- vision from an adjoining room. We ate lunch in the Automat. It was fascinating to some but to others it was not enjoyable at all. The boys liked it so much they went back there for dinner. At 1 :3() some of the group left for a baseball game at the Yankee Stadium to see the Yankees and the Red Sox. The rest went on a sight seeing yacht for a 2 2 hour lectured cruise around Manhattan Island. Mrs. Lopez, formerly Marion Andrews, was chaperone for this cruise. After our activities of the afternoon, the girl ' s left in taxicabs for Mike ' s Ship A ' hoy for dinner. This place was very quaint. We sat in small boats to eat. After dinner we walked to Radio City Music Hall to see Bing Crosby in A Connecticut Yankee and also the famous Rockettes in their Easter show which was both beautiful and inspiring. Saturday morning, April 30, we did a little shopping and a little packing before going to Grand Central Station for lunch and boarding the train for home. Mr. and Mrs. Fuller expected everyone to go to sleep on the train but we read and played cards. We were all very glad to get home and to bed early for once in a whole week. 20 The Forty-Niners Though our high school da s are ending. And we ' ve reached our goal at last. We ' ll take with us fond memories Of the four years that we ' ve just past. Of the dearness of our old home room. The thimibed pages of many a book. The encouraging guidance of a skilled hand, All these and many more, we ' ll ne ' r o ' erlook. And may we achieve through the years to come, The goals we ' ve had in view. And may we forty-niners have great happiness, In all things that we do. Aim high — ever higher, That ' s always been our cry. So wish us joy and good fortune. As we leave dear old Norton High. 21 o o U • a!

All the candidates gave campaign speeches. Many had campaign managers who gave ery convincing speeches. Following the campaign con ention, ever high school student voted. The officers elected were as follows: The officers took office at the first council meeting on October 14. 1948. The Student Council has had an eventful year. The handbook is ready for publication and will be distributed to the students in the next school year. The Council has raised the required funds for the handbook. Members of the council have attended two Student Council Conventions this year; one at North Attleboro — the other at Taunton. The Cieneral Conduct of Students was the main topic at the convention in North Attleboro. The main topic at the convention in Taunton was The Student Council in Relation to Teachers, Friends, and the Community . Members of the Council were very fortunate in hearing several outstanding speakers. President Vice-President Raymond (lagne Vincent Ferrini Alice Schmid Shirlev Yelle Secretary Treasurer 26 Latin Club The spring; meeting of the Latin Club was held in the High School laboratory during period X, April i, 1949. Edward Hesford, as First Consul, called the meeting to order. Vincent Ferrini was elected Second Consul; Barbara Foster, Scriba ; and Betty Drane, Quaestor. Plans were made for two events, the initiation to be held on the evening of April 18, 1949 and a Roman Banquet in May with Alice Schmid in charge. Miss Dorothy Stevens was named chairman, assisted by Dorothy Miller, Betty Drane, Barbara Foster, and Charles Mosher, who were themselves initiated last year. Lydia Fales was elected chairman of the refreshments committee for the April meeting. At its first meeting the French Club elected its officers: Ruth (loold, President; and Barbara Rosequist, Secretary and Treasurer. After the election of officers the subject of dues was brought up. Everyone agreed that the regular members should pay $ .25 a year and the new members $ .50 for the year. When this was taken care of the initiation was brought up. A motion was made and seconded that we have the initiation at the high school, February id, 1949. The head chairman of the committee was Eddie Pickett. He did a very good job in organizing the initiation. Rita Tucker was chosen as head of entertainment. A French play was put on by the Seniors and enjoyed very much by the audience. Mary Camara was elected as head of the refreshment committee. Sandwiches, punch, and cookies were enjoyed by everyone. The initiation went over with great success. We are now looking forward to a spring picnic for all the members of the French Club. Barbara Foster Barbara Rosequist 27 Latin Club Initiation The annual Latin Club Initiation was held April i8, 1949 at the Norton High School from 7:30 to io:(Xi o ' clock. The program began with the presentation of the humorous playlet, Off With His Head by members of the Latin I Class. John, who went to sleep while studying for a Latin exam, was played by David Larson; the four conjugations, who lilced John and wanted to help him, were played by Barbara Hoare, Carol Quebman. Rosemary Knapton, and Barbara Tierney; Mr. Sum Esse Fui, who was going to lose his head because he fell in love with Miss Accusative cae, was portrayed by Jackie Cosgrove; Miss Predicate Nominative, who really loved Mr. Sum Esse Fui. by Jean Cressey; Miss Adjective, who refused to agree, by Dawn Post; Miss Vocabulary, who was the same in the front as in the back, by Judith Re nolds; Mrs. Perfect Indicative Active, who was afraid she was going to lose her eye (i), by Beverly Minor; Mr. Ablative of Separation, the Chief executioner, by Thomas Hall; Mr. Long Mark, who thought he knew everything, by George Ann Bilodeau ; The King of Latin Land — Raymond Gagne; A guard — Richard Weiner. We all thought the play a clever yet an enjoyable way of teaching certain Latin principles. The initiation of the new members took place following the play. The students who were initiated were as follows: Jean Cressey, Judith Reynolds, Carol Quebman, Rosemary Knapton, Barbara Hoare. Beverly Minor, Dawn Post, George Ann Bilodeau and Raymond Gagne. The chairman of the initiating committee was Miss Doroth} Stevens. The students on the committee were Doroth Miller, Betty Drane, Barbara Foster and Charles Mosher. All the initiates were required to per- form stunts before they were accepted into the Latin Club. The stunts included the typical ones, having their heads cut off, drinking Caesar ' s blood, feeling Caesar ' s intestines, and jumping the broomstick as well as the individual stunts that were required of each initiate if he couldn ' t answer the Latin questions hred at him. After the stunts, refreshments were served and the students who survived the ordeal were sworn into the Latin Club by Edward Hesford, First Consul. Lytiia Fales was chairman of the refreshment committee. Barbara Foster 28 The Parrot The school paper initiated the year of 1948-1949 with refurbished ammunition. It was decided to have the Mansfield Press print the paper. The name Parrot was reinstated. Seven issues of the paper during the year were planned.

Their financial support was greatly appreciated and made possible the production of the Parrot. Last but not least, it ' s hats off to the staff for their co-operative work writing material for the Parrot. Your editor Carmella Pino 29 Senior Class Play The evening of December 2nd found the Seniors of Norton High School trembling behind the footlights of the Norton Town Hall, ready and eager to present their hilarious performance of Hi and Sis In New York by Henry Row- land. This play told of the adventures of a pair of country kids, Hi and Sis immersed in the complexities of the fast moving life of a ver sophisticated woman Mrs. Jackson. Sis came to New York to solve the riddle of the Jackson ' s who had run out on Mrs. Starr ' s boarding house, forgetting the little detail of paying their rent. Sis wasn ' t used to that sort of behavior. Her arrival in New York coincided with the departure of Jackson ' s maid. You guessed it, she was hired by Mrs. Jackson at the unheard salary of $15.00 per week. It developed that Mrs. Jackson was the head of a notorious shoplifting gang, and her thought was to have Sis take the rap in case of exposure. All this set the stage for the entrance of Hi , who came to the big city to protect Sis . The antics and adventures of this pair make a fast moving plot, full of comedy and thrills. Hi not only saved Sis from the law but between the pair of them, they brought the guilty to trial. The cast was as follows: Hi Hawkins Sis Spooner Mrs. Huntly Jackson Rose Turner Jane Jackson Mrs. Belle Bingham Mickey Donavan Patches Trixie La Belle A Detective Philip West Mrs. Philip West Mrs. Starr Maggie Donavan from Joggins Junction from Joggins Junction a woman of myster her maid her daughter a neighbor from the east side of New York an orphan girl an actress a young lawyer owner of Hotel in Joggins Junction Mickey ' s mother Stearns Briggs Rita Tucker Alice Schmid Marilyn King Mary Whitney Beverly Ciale Ray Ciagne Betty Tribou Phyllis Zwolensk Edward Hesford Andrew Bennett l)oroth Hoare Carmella Pino I)c)i is Tondreault Be mice ]VlcKay and Carol Rice, Seniors of AVheaton College directed and coached the cast of the play.

The sportsters chose Eddie Hesford to lead them this year Avith Vincent Ferrini to aid him, Dorothy Marcure, as secretary, and Ruth (joold to handle finances. T he school voted on a name for the high school team. They chose the Norton Knights but the name was soon changed to the Norton Tigers . The cheerleaders gave many impressive cheers between talks by Mr. Randall, .Mr. Paul Clark, and Miss Dorothy Stevens. Before Mr. Clark ' s Speech the six cheerleaders gave him a cheer in which each cheerleader yelled one letter of his name — C-L-A-R-K-E. Mr. Clark began his talk by saying that he regretted making one cheerleader lose her job but there was no E on his name. The cheerleaders under the supervision of ] liss Stevens were very impressive singing March on down the floor, an original song which was quickly adopted by the student body. Miss Dorothy Stevens coached the girls ' basketball and baseball teams again for her second ear. She has worked hard and sacrificed many of her afternoons preparing the girls for their contests. She also directed the cheerleaders and developed the best that Norton has ever had. We can ' t thank Miss Stevens enough for her sacrifice of time and efiort which she has wilfully given to promote an athletic program for the girls of Norton High. Taking over for coach Dzenwagis this year was Coach Paul Clark. Mr. Clark was welcomed by the high school with excellent boys to work with and he trained his boys into a crack team. Mr. Clark brought fame and recognition for Norton from his success. He received an invitation to appear on television with Derek Little and was honored b ' the Lions ' Club at a banquet given for his boys. Good luck in future years Mr. Clark and we hope you ' ll be with us a long time. First and foremost in the school activities year was basketba 1. Norton High School teamed up with the Mayflower League resulting in the best year that Norton has had. A full schedule of fourteen games faced the potentially dynamic team which consisted of: Vincent Ferrini, Eddie Hesford, Derek Little, Herman (Monies, and a new comer from Attleboro, Earl Charest. The team fought a glorious battle on their home floor but their stragedy weakened somewhat on the enemies ' courts. Toward the end of the season Vincent Ferrini became ill and wasn ' t with us for the rest of the season, but Coach Clark was ready with ALic Nason and Eddie Pickett to take over, alternatelv. Although the boys fell to third place in the Mayflower League standings, they made a definite impression by holding first place for over half the season. Following is a record of the Games: If here W. Bridgewater — Norton Bridgewater — Norton E. Bridgewater — ' Norton Holbrook — Norton Wrentham — Norton Avon — Norton Plainville — Norton W.

Led by Eddie Pickett the team came across wi :Ii 6 wins and S defeats. The team promises good things in the future with Freddy Soapy Scott, Don Carlson, Bob Todaro, Billy Clarke, (ieorge Robelard, and two new comers, Charlie Mosher and Eddie Coubron. New tops were received for the first team ' s uniforms. They were white T shirts with orange numbers. The second team was attired in orange shirts with black numbers and black shorts. I would like to predict a new and outstanding future for the girl ' s basketball team. This year, with four exceptions, the girls team consisted of all freshman. If the girls stick to it the attention of the high school will soon be focused on these girls in orange. Although the team met with many defeats this year they have experienced many cose contests. If the same girls who went out for basketball this year do so in the future years, their coach Aliss Stevens will have something to be proud of. Here is the lineup of the two teams. 1st Team 2nd Team Theresa Gomes F Barbara Hoare F Doris Poulin F Dottie Miller F Barbara Foster F J 1. Re nolds F Shirley Yelle (i Jean Cressy Ci Cynthia Haskell G Barbara Tierney Cj Carol Quebman (j Bette Davenport G The girls had ten games scheduled this year. They were as follows: Wrentham Plainville North Attleboro Alansfield V ' est Bridgewater Taunton Recreation The girls bought new uniforms this year. They are orange shirts and shorts with a black number over the heart. On the back is a large black N. As in previous years, the high school has included baseball and softball in its program of athletics. Vincent Ferrini announced the coming of baseball to the school with a poem which appeared in llw Parrot. As in basketball, the baseball team has a full schedule. This year, the sports world of the high school has a newcomer. Our new coach is introducing Track to add to the excitement of the athletic program. Although not too many boys went out for track a start was made in the right direction. The starting members are Bob Todaro, Eari Charest, Eddie Hesford, Stearns Briggs, Robert Caswell, and Ray (lagne. One of the basketball team ' s greatest aspirations was to beat Plainville High School. The boy ' s had good reason to show their determination to beat Plainville because they had never beaten them. The conte. t was between Norton and Plain i le at Norton. Then something imexpected happened. Vincent Ferrini, the heart of our team became ill, leaving the team with a weak link in its chain. Ever one felt miserable and no one expected Norton to win the game. On the night of the game about half the town turned out ready to admit that Norton would lose to their rivals. The Town Hall was Hooded with fans with about the greatest gate on record. The preliminary game was soon decided in Plainville ' s favor. When the first team came out on the floor there weren ' t more dismal people in the whole world than the Norton fans. Herman and Derek were both a little wobbly from the injured ankles in the Avon game. Mac Nason didn ' t feel too confident but intended to do his best. The contest started. At first the score see-sawed, but after the last half Norton held a slight lead of a few points. Toward the end of the game the Plainville team began to show spirit but as their score crawled up our boys tallied six quick points and at the final whistle the scoreboard read Norton 38, Plainville 34. Eddie Souza, our unauthorized scoreboard attendant nearly fell ofi his high perch and with good reason. Norton had beat Plainville! 34 Lompliments ot Hareo Orchards Central Oil and Company Ponltry Farm Inc. HcriKird C_ nbisiiis — Prop Norton IMass. Compliments of Compliments of W. S. C.
