A The Shipbuilder page me Hanover High School claimed two of our classmates, Marion Paige and Jean Hatch, and that Edward Strach- an had left to go to work. But we gained three valuable members, name- ly: Jean MacLean, who is completing high school in three years, Amy Chil- lemi, from Cohasset, and Betty Mc- Pherson, from Braintree. As class officers we elected: Daniel Currie, President, Melvin Burnside, Vice-President, Priscilla Merritt, Sec- retaryg and Tom Tolman, Treasurer. Early in the season we gave a suc- cessful social, which was followed by a Hallowe'en dance in October, and a St. Patrick's dance March 18. Both our boys and girls excelled in athletics this year as they always had before. Many of our students did valuable and worthwhile club- work, too. Early in the year we began to plan for graduation. After a good deal of discussion among students, Prin- cipal, Superintendent, and School Committee, we were given permission to institute a type of graduation new to Norwell High School. Instead of the usual essays at graduation, there will be an outside speaker, allowing us to put all our time and energy into our last project, a presentation of the play, Little Women, taken directly from the immortal story by Louisa May Alcott. Our usual class night exercises will take place in the morn- ing, followed by a class outing. Now the full realization of what lies ahead comes upon us, and we stand ready to face it. MARION OSBORNE CLASS SONG Dear Alma Mater, We with loyal hearts Salute Thee, To thee we offer our Love and Praise. Though we must leave thee We never will forget thee And the Mem'ry of thy happy days. May we Press onward, Holding thy Standard- Our Aim before us, The truth of all to tell Through high endeavor We pay our tribute to thee. Dear Norwell High we Love thee well.
