W we A ff'l' , THE LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT or THE CLASS OF 1952 X W XS14 'I' I All i' we, the Seniors of the Norwell High School, recognizing the fact that ,QW our exceptionally bright career as students of the school is about to come Xl to an end, being remarkably sound in mind and body, and at the height of our glory, and considering the great loss the Faculty and students of this X I X school will sustain by our departure, do make and publish this last will and testament in the manner and form following: we, the Class of 1952, appreciate the respect that our worthy Faculty has shown us, and do, therefore, bequeath them this gift: A pile of bricks to build a new gymnasium so that next year we can accomodate the large crowd that will attend the basketball games. We realize, in a sympathetic way, the heartache, sorrow, and gloom, the absence of the Class of '52 will bring upon the school, but we fully jf ! ,1 MW' Y ff realize the impossibility of giving comfort or relief. we think this ' justifies us in bequeathing a few of our gifts to the suffering humanity left behind us on the campus. First: To the Juniors we leave this horn to blow, as your own must be worn out from so much use. Second: To the Sophomores we leave our track shoes,so that you can h beat everyone else to the lunch room. Third: To the Freshmen we leave a donkey which is symbolic of your class. To the School we bequeath the following books for use in the Norwell Library. These volumes are results of our extensive experience and deepest thought. we advise the students to handle them carefully, study them conscientiously, and digest them thoroughly. Alberta Smith: Northern Cooking with A Southern Accent Kay Caron: Counting Calories Glenn Mesheau: Scientific Crap Shooting Tom Peachey: Walking My Baby Back Home Toni Walsh: How To Grow Tall Don Merritt: Am I My Brother's Keeper? Pete' wyllle: Love 'Em and Leave 'Em Marya Cellinis How To Make Men Keep Dates That A Girl Makes with Them Judy Bates: Bringing Up Parents Webb McLeod: Living In Hope Dot Wessman: Adventures of Me and Sin CCynD Margie Louison: How To Digest Gum On Short Notice Pat Gunderway: The Belle of Norwell Becky Grigsbyz How To Blow Your Own Horn M. Lynn Vezina I'm Lovely, Iwnimgaged, I Use Ponds KAuthor's note: But so do frogs., we, the Senior Girls of 1952, do will and bequeath our memories of the Lost weekends on the Islands. We, the Senior Boys of 1952, do will and bequeath three of our members,so that all the Junior Girls will have partners when-they graduate. We, the Class of 1952, do will and bequeath the qualities which lead to success. we realize that these qualities are too high for any other class to attain, but they may be used as a far distant goal at which to aim. . xfmfxxp W p WN WU ,WNNTNNQ ,A Q A A f ' 3 mywffp ,T f lla' 4 my 1 A- f fl f A f J I ff X Y f 1 , ,' fr A ,f ', I 1 'fa ' ' ' ff - fr-a' , Y if ,- 'J , ' flfl ll N
