Tlllz' .S'HIPBUll,lll2'll' 7.7 Crass PRQPHECY 4 With such noble specimens of the hu- man race assembled about one, it is rather diflicult to forecast to what un- bound limits these individuals might pursue their course. For authority on the subject it becomes necessary to quote from the columns of the June Ed- ition of the Norwell Advertiser of the year, 1953. On the night of June 13, the banquet table of the graduating class of '53 was honored by the presence of the graduat- ed class of twenty years ago. These most worthy citizens had arrived at the Norwell Airport in one of the transports of the Joseph-Osborne Airlines and were taken to the Norwell High School in one of the busses owned by the same com- pany. Mr. Edward Joseph and Mr. George Osborne personally conducted the trip. Af-ter disposing of the evening repast, speeches were made by the distinguished guests. Hon. Gordon Robbins, the Mayor of New York orated to some length on The Advantages to be Gained by an Education at Norwell High School. Mr. Vincent Travi, The Socialistic Candidate for President of the United States explained that his tardiness was due to the time taken by ia women's convention that he had been attending. He then revealed one of his campaign slogans, More Attention to Women in American Industry. Next on the program was Mr, Vincent Lincoln, the present lightweight champ- ion of the ring. After flexing his mus- cles a few times, Mr. Lincoln proceeded to show the important part the calis- thenics of Norwell High had played in his development. Miss Elizabeth Lincoln, local leader of the Bachelor Maids rose and decla- red that Vincent would never be where he was today if it hadn't been for her nourishing home cooking. Miss Sylvia Pike, Supervisor at the Massachusetts General Hospital said that she thought Vincent had great pos- sibilities indeed if only Miss Helen White, now starring n the Hollywood Revue would see that he kept in train- ing. Miss Geraldine Tibbetts of the Massa- chusetts State Board of Reform stated hastily that the terrible doings of the present generation were not suprising as she had seen the symptons as far back as 1933. Miss Eleanor Joseph however put mat- ters right by saying that as everyone present was a member of the mentioned generation one couldn't be too harsh. Miss Joseph continued ramidst great ap- plausel to say that in ten year's exper- ience as a teacher at the Norwell High, she had never seen a more intelligent group of children than those whose par- ents were assembled before her. Miss Gauley of the Civil Service Board of Examinations declared that no other citizens attained such high levels in Civil Service tests as those graduated from N orwell High. Miss Barbara Knapp, the popular an- nouncer for station W. E. E. I. took great pleasure in introducing the Smith Sisters -Barbara and Emily. After be- ing entertained for the next half hour by the Smith Sisters close harmony, Miss Knapp introduced Miss Florence Hamb- len the Prima Donna of the Springfield Sweeter Sugar Hour. Her song Carrol- ing in the Corridor With One I Love was a great hit. Miss Hamb1en's singing was enjoyed by all and after an appre- ciative audience had voiced its approval, it was decided that the banquet had been brought to a most fitting close. It might be said that never before in the history of .Norwell has such a dist- inguished and famous group of men and women been assembled within the walls of Norwell High School. Although ft seems almost an impossibility for any class in the future to attain such a deg- ree of success as the Class of 1933, a goal has been set for which it would be well for future generations to strive.
