He also re- ceived his first taste of Coach Walls' basketball during his sophomore year by making the reserve team where he continued to learn the fin- er points of the game. In his junior year he also became a varsity man and he saw part time action. During his junior year he made his first trip to Sandusky with the team. In his senior year he was appointed captain of the team and proved himself able to bear the re- sponsibility. He also got his first chance at a starting berth, and again the trip to Sandusky as a regular member of the team. Jack Wilde is a tall blonde guard, who showed promise of being an outstanding player from the start, but due to his lack of experience he did not make the regular reserves while a sophomore, but due to his great love for the game he became an outstanding player on the junior varsity where he hoped to gain the experience he lacked. In his junior year after proving his ability to learn, he gained a starting berth on the Reserve team, where he fur- thered his ability in this line. In his senior year his smooth, steady brand of ball proved of great value to the team in helping it to make a good showing. Bob Van Dette started his high school career by making the re- serve team in his sophomore year. In his junior year he advanced to the varsity team where he made quite a bit of improvement. The team will be greatly strengthened by him next year. Herb Ryan is a small, fast junior forward who joined the varsity after one year of reserve ball Herb is overcoming the handicap of being short by perfecting his shooting ability. He too will prove to be a valuable member of the varsity next year. Richard Meagrow is a very prom- ising sophomore guard who sur- prised everyone by stepping right from the junior high team to the high school varsity where he proved himself very capable of the position. Big things are expected of him in the next two years. Harry Chandler came to Norwalk with a fine junior high record and in his sophomore year played on the starting line-up of the reserve team which was defeated only once. In his sophomore year he was also a member of Norwalk's tournament team although he saw little action. In his junior year he advanced to starting forward on the varsity and with the development of his shoot- ing ability proved to be a great as- set to the team both during the sea- son and in the tournament. In his final year he repeated his outstand- ing performances by helping the team out of many bad situations with his ability to hit the basket, thus gaining for himself the honor of being chosen on the all-league team. Bill Shew, a small Hoosier guard, came to Norwalk from Indiana in his sophomore year and immedi- ately proved his ability by becom- ing a regular on the reserve team. Bill also journeyed to the Sandusky tournaments with the team in the same year. With a year of experi- ence of the kind of basketball that Coach Walls teaches, he stepped into a graduating senior's shoes on the varsity in his junior year and proved himself very able to fill them. Due to a knee injury near the latter part of the season, he was unable to play his usual amount of ball which proved a handicap to the team. In his senior year he re- sponded by turning in many stellar performances which proved him to be a great rebound man as well as a hard worker who meant much to the team. Norman Nestor is another junior who got his start in junior high. His first big chance came when he was awarded the position of center on the reserve team. Then in his ju- nior year Mort became a regular member of the varsity where his height proved to be very valuable. He will also be back next year to help the team. John Borgia, after completing a successful season with the junior high team, earned for himself a starting position of the reserve team in high school. In his junior year his ability greatly increased and he was advanced to the varsity. He made a very good showing and is expected to be in the starting line- up next yea1'. Bill McKinley is also a sophomore who gained a position on the varsi- ty because of his ability to learn quickly. He saw a lot of action and is expected to be one of the out- standing members of next year's team. To love Ma game beyomi the prizeu .

Marilyn coin- pleted her fourth year as accompanist and will be greatly missed. Although not included in the music depart- ment, Miss Mary Hassclkus, French teacher and librarian, was invaluable to the chorus. Her ex- ceptionally artistic decorations for the different programs added an atniosphere of beauty to each occasion. '?We will cliscourso most aloqueni Music.

To the faculty we leave the memory of Keith White, our star prodigy Knot bad looking either? and the wish that the rest of us were that good. To the junior class we leave the right to be high and mighty and to enjoy our interesting American His- tory classes. The sophomore class will receive the pleasure of getting one year closer to graduation and the freshmen will lose their green tint through our bounteous goodness, Part of the class of '48 leaves N.H.S. with no thought but of leaving Churrahl but some of us really could shed sad tears. So to the school we leave our memo- ries. In respect to special requests: Don- na Hannel receives the poise of Bar- bara Bowen, and Austin Pease gets Alene Good's school spirit. Tom Beck, Red Moore and Jack Wilde leave the three junior beauties, Lesta Gibbons, Juanda Hutton and Nancy Wood to the wiles of N.H.S. wolves. The Shew- mobile and Herb Brown's Model A Ford will be left to the East Main and West Main gangs respective- ly. While we are on the subject of means of locomotion, Jolm Conner be- queaths his track speed to Roland Wildman. Maynard Gowrylok leaves -oh, he's already left. Milly Hergatt and Peggy Ryden leave their out-of-town dates to Carol Price and Marjorie Chandler while Roy Stentz will get lots of use from Bob Breternitz' height. Bill Samaha receives Ronnie Albright's poetic tal- entg Dick Clumingham and Prentiss Wickham leave ustedes with one of their big smiles. Betty Chapman wills her blonde hair to Regina White and Lee Ernest leaves his looks for the N.H.S. males to divide among them- selves. Beverly Eaton leaves her seat in the trombone section to Jo Anne Ward Cfor obvious reasons! and Jim Turrit- tin will receive Beverly Cady's reper- toire of jokes. Lyle Thorne is be- queathed Joel Dean's musical talent and Harriet Mackin leaves her trou- bles with the McKinleys to Shirley Pickett. To the high school card sharks is left Bob Klein's den and Betty Han- nel will be endowed with Wilma Or- phey's left-handed basketball shots. Joan Samaha bequeaths her friendly smile to Dick Geer while Fred Spencer leaves his infectious laugh to Bill Sheppard. Judy Harkness is left with the job of chorus accompanist with, best wishes from Marilyn Switzer. And, speaking of jobs, Lenore Rees is leav- ing the presidency of Y-Teens to some LUCKY jruiior. Jane I-Ienderson's position as editor of the Signal and annual remains for someone who is as willing to give up study halls. Bill Shew and Harriette Orebaugh are leaving so Tom Hall and Lee Toomer can take their otherwise va- cant place as another of the cutest couples ever seen in the halls of N .H.S. The other half of that pair of twins, Frank Shew, leaves without any com- ment. To Jack Lawrie, Harry Chandler leaves his basketball ability and Dick Sisson leaves his record at rope-climb- ing for future competitors. David Lang receives Fred Terry's football prowess and John Malcolm leaves his sports stories to Jim McDonald. Denny Vaughn will be endowed with Jim Tx-ace's habitual scowl while John Hepp leaves his profile for Coach Walls. Lois Chapin bequeaths her ef- ficiency in typing and shorthand to Veronica Frey and Lowell Cutnaw leaves the high school after as many troubles as a class president can have. Jane Geer receives Betty Clark s beautiful hair, and Don Kearney's build remains behind for Don Weltlin. Dick Blackburn wills his good natured disposition to Harley Davis. Lila Mill- er leaves her thoughts of Jimmy to the school to ponder on. Having left our better qualities and material possessions to help the under- classrnen, we hereby do declare this to be our last will and testament, wit- nessed, signed, and sealed this fourth day of J mme, nineteen-hundred and for- ty-eight. 5 Senior Class of 1948 Witnesses: Mortimer Snerd Baby Snooks Elmer Tuggle Shakespeare must have been quite a man, To write all his many words by hand.

As June 4 approaches, many seniors feel butterflies when they realize that they will not return to school next fall. When two of them meet they are likely to say, Remember when we started to kindergarten, and then they are off for a jaunt through memory land. It was a proud day for Phyllis Bau- man when at the tender age of five, she boarded the Dinky and gave her fare to Conductor Gassman for the long journey from Grove Street to the halls of learning located on Pleasant Alley. Pleasant Street School started many of 1948 on the road of learning. Walter Doughty led the class in bulk, with Burr Furlong being the baby in size. Keith White wasted valuable time try- ing to kiss the girls, especially cute little Joan Samaha, who moved ln from Vermillion wearing pigtails. At that time Blob Wright had straight hair and Dick Blackburn didn't care about girls. For P.T.A. they put on a. play. The plot consisted of a spoiled boy, Burr Furlong, who wanted the moon, his father, Buzz Shelley, and his nurse, Hari-iette Orebaugh. As actors they were all a success until Keith White put them into hysterics by wiggling his ears. CI-Ie can still do it, demon- stration freel. Making rag dolls was the chief task of kindergartners Barbara Powers, Evelyn Seitz, Chuck Leibold, Harold Pressley, Jim Trace, and Betty Clark. Later Chuck joined a gang of real fel- lows at Benedict, who went fishing at the reservoir and played at guns in the woods. Ronnie Albright held the spotlight for some time with an appen- dectomy. Later he held forth on Bob Klein's porch and in his club rooms. Jack Wilde, Harry Chandler, John Malcolm, Bill Kemper, Fred Terry, and other fellows at Central were the champions of the city, winning all the basketball and softball games. They had just one tie in football with Bene- dict, who had man-mountain Luxon on their team. Speaking of Malcolm, those were the days when Rugged John was the target of all the girls when it came to dating. As now John was a sports enthusiast. He played the lead in a play of John Paul Jones, and cut a real figure in his gold braid and a real-for-sure sword. The high point of Richard Sisson's career was the Frosh Initiation when he made the fatal mistake of coming to school early and the seniors used lipstick to change his schoolgirl com- plexion to that of an Indian. In those grade school days Marilyn Switzer, Elaine Mellott, and Janey Henderson played nurse Ca la Miss Bartonl and saved many a life on a gory battelfield. Marilyn used her come hither look on none but Dean Olcott, and Jane's dreamy glances rested on Andy Luxon. Lenore Rees will never forget the big snow and the heroic effort she made to continue her education in spite of snow-drifts, only to be told to plow her way back home again. lVIillie Hergatt and Vadis Heath can't forget the days when Coach Cal Pfeif- fer taught Vocations and scared the daylights out of everbody. Harriet Mackin recalls those freshman days when she and others hung around adoring the senior boys, and trying to get up courage enough to ask to bor- row their huge letter sweaters. Frank Shew has a memory long enough to recall the era when skirts were short enough to show a Bobby- Soxer's ankles. When he first tried Marching Band, Bill McDonald came close to killing his little self. Placed at the right end of a line and behind a big old-fashioned tuba, he was unable to see in front or to the right. Blowing at full tilt and guiding to the left, he felt a ter- rific jolt and the band passed by. Bill picked himself and what was left of the ancient instrument from the rear of the parked truck which had stopped his progress. League Street children remember vividly the historical play of their third grade. They produced the early settlement of Norwalk.

I might add, ll tl and proudly too, that it got no little 3 p y publicity for some distance around. IP H . H After going to our class picnic one Lvsferfone Dry Cleaning 1: fall evening we started on our way I 1, home. Let me add that the phrase H 44 Benedict Ave. 1: on our way' is misleading for I did x I 1a not get there for some time. Accom- 0 66 East Mlain St. panying me were four members of 0 3 our class. They were Tom Beck, Keith U White, Dick Blackburn, and Lila Mill- 403 er. Lila was doing the kind deed of :-,---::-,,.....e,,-,J driving us home- Everything was going nicely until Keith mentioned the most inexplicable thing, a Mohican Haircut. All save Tom, who turned white at the fearful thought, readily agreed and with Lila's permission we went to Lila's house to use it for a barber shop. Before long there were three bald heads that went laughingly home with their owners. When Mother and Dad saw me they made quite a fuss and fume but final- ly accepted it and thought it as funny as I did. The real trouble started when we arrived at school the next day. Everybody talked. Finally the principal made an announcement that we were turning our attention from important things to foolish haircuts. Later we were kept out of assembly, and we came to the conclusion that he was ashamed of us. Later we were expelled from school until the middle strip was taken off too. This was quickly done, and school life went on as usual. Time remedies most things, especially a too-short haircut. N. H. s.

So here are the plattings of some of our famous Seniors. Peg Ryden will search for a secre- tary's position so she can spend the day sitting on the Boss's lap. A book on the habits and traits of the light- ning bug is now being planned by Herb Brown and Jack Twaddle. Keith White intends to honor his Chemistry teacher by perfecting a hair restorer, while John Conner will bring fame to his country by running the mile in the next Olympics. Bob Klien would like to enter the shot-put event, but as yet found no country enthusiastic enough to back him. The management of the pool room will be by Fritz Terry, with Dick Cun- ningham running a few games on the side. Harry Chandler and Jack Wilde will have opened their dress making and styling shop by then. I believe it is going to be next to the beauty and charm school run by Joel Dean and Bill Kemper. Betty Clark, Barbara Powers, and Evelyn Sietz will try to break the speed record for riding a bicycle built for three cross-country. Charles Col- lier will be their publicity manager. Probably John Hepp will feature it in his newspaper. Harriet Mackin hopes to work in Mr. Lehn's office as the place has be- come almost a second home to her. Dick Blackburn will devote his life to helping Mr. Lehn think up new questionaires, as he has enjoyed them so much. Grace Hayes will become an au- thority on parks and parking, while Karl Kinkle intends to be an expert in removing gum from the bottom of movie seats. Probably by next fall Jim Trace will have been deported to Russia for Communistic activities, while Bev Ca- dy and Barbara Bowen will journey to the Dutch East Indies to work among the Zulus. Betty Chapman and Marilyn Collier will be trying to win fame by straightening the leaning tower of Pisa. I hear that Alene Good is going to apply for the position of cattle in- spector in the Chicago stockyards, while Jane Henderson hopes to fill the vacant spot of football coach at Yale University. Ronald Albright and Bev Eaton will realize their life long ambition by joining the Metropolitan Opera Co. Bill Shew and Lee Ernest are thinking about joining a ballet troupe for the summer tour. I can see them now! Marilyn Switzer will also make her career dancing so she can help her father test balloons. Lois Chapin, Barbara Hawley, Vir- ginia Barnes, Lenore Rees, and Milly Hergatt have applied for positions at the Roxy. Frank Shew and Jolmnie Malcolm are planning on ushering there. Lowell Cutnaw will meanwhile be home realizing his dream of per- fecting the perfect recipe for lemon cream pie. Eddie McConeghy has chosed art as her life work. Lila Miller will spend at least two years hunting mountain lions with a sling shot in the Sahara. Joan Sama- ha plans to win her glory as a lady wrestler. Tom Beck is going to pro- mote a trolly line to Christie Avenue. That will also be nice for Joyce 0'Dell who will spend the summer changing the doorbells in her house to buzzers. Fred Spencer will devote his summer to trying to acquire a nice tan. Harriette Orebaugh will explore the country side helping her father select ideal, nicely located plots of land.

White As one looks at some of the head- lines in today's newspapers, he can surely see the need for a guiding hand for the members of the society of which we all are a part. Russia Moves into Czechoslovakiang Greece Losing Fight to Communist Gueril- las g Sweden and Finland Prepare to Resist Red g College Director Found Dead, Believed Suicide g Col- lege Student Shoots Friend g Sex Fiend Kills Three -these and others like them can be seen daily in every paper in this country, and even throughout the world. During the last four decades the human race has made greater ad- vances in science, invention, and medicine than in any four centuries before that time. But during those same four decades there were two great World Wars, and the second has in no way solved the problems of the world. This shows that man has not yet mastered social relationships. Man can not and will not learn to control society without some common denominator of understanding by which a solution can be reached. There comes to mind the story of the little dog who belongs to a family living near a railroad track. Every day, as the trains go roaring by, the little dog chases them, and he begins to run so fast that his legs can't keep up with him. Head over heels he rolls into a great ditch that runs along the track. Then sadly the lit- tle dog retraces his steps, his tail be- tween his legs. Time after time he repeats the performance. That dog and modern society are living in similar ruts. If the little dog catches the train, he won't know what to do next. Perhaps he will get in front of the train and be killed. Modern so- ciety, too, is rushing at a faster and faster pace, and occasionally it trips and plunges into the ditch of war. Then it waits for a time and starts to chase again. Both the little dog and the nations of the world today have no purpose in their headlong rushes. Furthermore, if the world should catch the train of mad prog- ress, it might be reduced to a barren, radioactive planet by the deadly weapons of warfare that all nations are hurrying to perfect and produce. Crime and Juvenile delinquency are on the increase. More and more money is being spent each year for intoxicating beverages. KAlmost 2411 of all traffic accidents last year were directly attributed to liquor.D Man- agement and labor are constantly bickering. Nations are fighting other nations over trivial disagreements that can be settled by arbitration. Palestine is torn with civil strife be- tween men of conflicting ideologies. The United Nations Organization is stalemated because of the lack of co- operation among the members. Everywhere can be seen the need for religion as the guiding hand, the solution to the problem of social re- lationships, the source of purposes, the alleviator of conditions brought on by crime, drink, and disagree- ment, the exponent of understanding and brotherly love. Religion, partic- ularly as known by the teaching and practice of the Christian faith, is a constructive, not a destructive, force.

As a matter of fact, almost one third of the population of the world already profess and call them- selves Christiansf' Further, ap- proximately two thirds of the world's power is in the hands of Christian nations. The shortcomings of this theory lie in the fact that not all Christians are true Christians, that not all those 6,000,000,000 practice the gospel as set down by the divinely in- spired writers of Biblical times. Thus we see that the conversion of the world will have to begin within the present sphere of Christian influence, with the individual, before the social structure of any nation can be changed. Evidence of this can be found in any number of ways. Church atten- dance as compared with that of the past is alarmingly low. fApproxi- mately 30'Z: of enrolled church mem- bers of the United States attend church regularlyb. Man is becoming more and more selfish and unthinking in his activities. The -younger gener- ation, subject to the influence of their elders though they may be, are more wild and unruly than their parents would have dared to be. Respect for the rights of one's fellow man has fallen off to a minimum. Selfishness has become the key word in the fi- nancial world. In response to the question: Why turn to religion for aid in correcting the conditions of the World? and What can religion do to rectify these conditions? there are those who an- swer thus: What else is there? We have tried everything but religion. Psychologists have found that when everything else fails, the age-old pattern of religion proves to be a reliable basis for treatment. It is certainly true that faith is always relied upon only as a last resort. To answer these questions, first: Why turn to religion for aid in cor- recting the conditions of the world? No government can exist on econo- mics and politics alone. Those that have tried have failed or are failing. The fundamental issues must be mor- al and spiritual. Any government that is formed without a moral and spiritual foundation will eventually be destroyed from withing if its ene- mies don't attack it from without be- fore a revolution can be fomented. That is the prinicpal reason that the Orthodox Church is tolerated in Rus- sia today. John Sutherland Bonnell, Pastor of the Fifth Avenue Presby- terian Church in New York City, said in a sermon recently: The common man all around the world is awaken- ing to a realization of his right to freedom and self-determination. Re- moving the right of a man to wor- ship as he pleases is one major step toward upheaval. The second question, What can re- ligion do to rectify these conditions? has largely been answered. It might be said, though, that ever since the first settlers touched the shores of America, religion has been the or- ganizer when there has been no other The institutional churches set up in slum districts of the larger cities of this country after the Civil War illus- trate that fact. Not only that, but the church is one of the greatest formers of public opinion in modern society. In the United States there are more churches than schoolsg and there are more members of churches than all organized labor, business, and farm groups combined. Thomas Jefferson said: The sum total of the common sense of the common people is the greatest and soundest force on earth. If religion can exert its influence up- on the common people , there is no saying what it can accomplish. Ernst A. Hauser in a recent article in The American Weekly said: Faith Creligionl is the desire to de- velop and express a moral code need- ed as a foundation for a satisfactory relationship between all human be- ings. Faith satisfies the need for a source of spiritual strength. Hauser summarizes his opinion of faith by saying that, besides being essential, it is the transformation of human in- stinct toward higher morality. Faith always was and always will be the most powerful force for good. The common denominators of all reli- gions are basic ideals of goodness, unselfishness, and reverence for a power which will forever transcend our understanding. The role that religion will play in the next few years will be a deciding factor in the future of the world. If mankind is to continue to exist, there must be a common ground of under- standing and cooperation among all peoples of the world.

No matter what troubles there are loom- ing up before him, he can, by simple will-power, postpone it all until to- morrow'. An example of the procrastinator is the way I go about my morning be- fore-school routine. My sister's alarm rings at 7:15 on the dot. tIt is a nev- er-failing watchdog that has hardly ever missed its callingb. Caroline usually rolls out of bed immediately and knocks on my door. The ensu- ing conversation goes thusly: Marilyn! I-Iuh. ' 'Ma-a-arilyn ! Huh ilittle louderl. It's time to get up. Come on! Get UP! Huh, Silence. Caroline goes about her business Company and I say to myself, T11 get up in ::::: 3 ::::::::::::::I:J just a little bit.'

Also the job of picking up my pajamas receives the same fate. Procrastination can always be tracked down by finding out a per- son's morning schedule and how he goes about it. A procrastinator is usually very lack-a-daisical and placid. But when some job rears its ugly head in the very near future, this strange person digs down into his reserve of strength, fthis reserve is quite full due to lack of use? and wears himself out tear- ing around trying to get the job fin- ished on time. This effort absolutely exhausts the procrastinator and he goes into a decline with a look of sur- prise on his face. Although the procrastinator never has been too plentiful in history, there seems to be even less evidence of this type of person. With the world mov- ing at a faster pace than ever before, one who puts things off is entirely out of place. If he puts off something until the next day , he loses out on his interests and becomes a stick-in- the mud. Because of this, most pro- crastinators have given up and be- come energetic, punctual clock-watch- ers. Changing into a clock-watcher is a most difficult thing to do. For clock-watchers are the exact opposite of procrastinators. The last thing the latter will force himself to do will be to look at the clock. This horrible mechanical invention is to the procras- tinator the symbol of everything in which he does not believe. The very presence of any kind of clock in his Vicinity makes him vaguely uneasy and rather oppressed. The only answer to this problem would be to form a world-wide organi- zation with club-house in each com- munity. There would be no clocks, no schedules, or any other form of system allowed in the clubhouse. This is the only hope for procrastina- tors but there is only a feeble chance that it will materialize. Meanwhile, We procrastinators will keep putting things off and leading our own happy- go-lucky kind of life. N. H. s. What do people say every time they see your nose? Well, so long! N. H. s.

Why sure- I went to Norwalk High With the long stone corridors, The many class rooms, Trophy cases in the lower hall, A plaque to heroes of the First World War, Many lockers sunk in the wall. Bushes around winding walks, Entrance made of stone, Steps where boys and girls have sat, Trees under which they walked, A foyer where they stood at noon, Banisters worn smooth by time- All this I had to leave too soon. The library-many well-worn books, Signal room, a favorite place, The gym where many memories come Of games, dances, plays. Much used seats of Study Hall, The very one where once I sat- And I have left it all. My mind wanders around my school, Remembers faces, names, and things. Funny, how dear something becomes When once you leave it. Thinking of my youth, I learn My present position means nothing to me, I would give it all to return. N. H. s. NORWALK HIGH STUDENTS RECEIVE AWARDS At the community celebration of Memorial Day several Norwalk High students were honored. William Kemper read the orders of the day. Citizenship Award for leadership in school was given to Charles Collier. Medals for the best essay on Na- tional Defense and What it Means to Me were awarded to Richard Cun- ningham of the senior class, Cathy Amato of the juniors, Shirley Hite from the sophomore class, and Betty Tite of the freshman class. These awards were sponsored by the American Legion and the Veterans of Foreign Wars. Father Duffy of New London was the guest speaker for the day. Music was furnished by the Norwalk High School Band.

Civil War Golf: Out in '61 and back in '65, TOP OF THE MARK High in a glass-walled cocktail lounge one may look out upon the city of San Francisco and its surround- ings. At night this View is particularly spectacular. The innumerable lights from homes, built on the sides of San Francisco's famous hills, combined with the colored lights of San Fran- cisco's multitude of bridges, form a rare and exquisite pattern. As one moves from window to window, the pattern changes, and each time seems lovelier than the last. Wisps of fog, drifting lazily across some lights, blot them out only to play hide and seek with some a little farther on. Traffic lights, neon signs, and water reflections all go to make up a breath- taking view on which thousands of sight-seers, as well as natives of San Francisco, gaze enraptured. Jane Henderson, '48 N. H. s. An old spinster was visiting the city and decided to ride to her destination in a cab. As soon as she had closed the door behind her, the cab lunged forward violently, raced wildly through the street, and stopped so abruptly for a red light that the spin- ster thought 'something should be done. Poking her head through the window and shaking her umbrella at the driv- er, she said, Young man, be a little more careful. I'm extremely vous and this is the first time ever ridden in a cab.

GOLF TEAM HONORED One of Mrs. Grant Walls' famous spaghetti dinners was served to nine members of the golf team on Friday, May 28, as the official close of a rather unsuccessful season. Fred Terry, Bill Shew, Charles Peckham, David Lang, Keith White, Bob Sheldon, Jack Hawley, Clark Keyser, and Cuy- ler Gibbons attended. After the meal, letters were presented to the first five of the above. During the afternoon the senior members of the team with the aid of Frank Shew defeated next year's golf team by a score of 5-3. Terry and Bill Shew each gathered two points for the seniors and White con- tributed one while Peckham and Gib- bons each netted a point for the un- derclassmen.

You can see clouds hovering over the United States hundreds of miles to the northwest. The tiny is- land of Bermuda is only two hun- dred miles north of your position. Below, on the still waters, a group of ships churn silvery wakes as they steam quietly towards an unknown destination. Everything is peaceful. The ocean is calmg the wind, still. Suddenly you see nimble activity below. The ships are separating. Three destroyers are steaming south- west, one staying close by an air- craft carrier. Settling lower over the ships, the names become visible. The three steaming southwest are the Lareon, Thomas, and Goodrichg the one by the carrier, the Hanson. The largest ship is the carrier Midway. Figures of men are scurrying about the deck of the Midway. Their at- tention is centered on a large rocket sitting vertically on the stern of the ship, its nose pointing skyward. It is silver, over twenty feet long and six feet in diameter. Surely it resem- bles similar objects seen flying over the English Channel during the war. What would it be doing on a ship in mid-Atlantic ? Suddenly there is a roar, a flash of flame spouts from the tail of the roc- ket. The air around vibrates from the power of this mighty missileg the noise is deafening. The rocket as- cends slowly into the air. It wobbles, shudders, then bursts, falling to the water in three pieces. Yes, it's a clear day, a warm day. You see clouds hovering over the United Statesg you see Bermuda only two hundred miles away. Below five ships in formation steam for their home port. Aboard these ships are probably films and documents which will re- late to the unsuspecting world what has taken place this day-a day when a V-2 Rocket was first fired from a warship at sea. You ponder on the strange behav- ior of people. You wonder what the world is coming to when all the na- tions are conducting experiments of this sort. Will the air be alive with rockets of this type in the near future, fired from ships at sea? Meditating on this unusual occur- ance, you drift higher and higherg N soon forgotten are the warships, air- craft, and rockets. Your mind shifts rapidly to more pleasant events of past and future.
