venture called for an intrepid instructor in- deed, one ready to sacrifice life and limb for his school. With Mr. Fisher in charge, if not at the wheel, the project got underway. Many a timid Senior encouraged by cries from his classmates to put a nickel in it, and many a jackrabbit jumper among us, who for weeks scattered the pedestrians in all directions, overcame his qualms with the result that we can report innumerable successes in this field. October found Diane Weisul and John Poce on their way toward Northfield and Mt. Herman to represent the school at the New England Student Government Association meeting. An unexpected vacation added to our Thanksgiving pleasure when repair work on the school boilers necessitated closing the school for a week. Short-lived, however, was our joy when we learned that future vacations were to be shortened to make up the time. That sanctum sanctorum known as the Tiot Room hummed with activity throughout the year, long after the building was otherwise deserted and even during vacation days as the indefatigable editors with their adviser, Mrs. Riley, planned and executed layouts to make our 1949 Tiot a thing of beauty and a joy forever. December brought rehearsals for our Senior Play The Fighting Littles, an hilarious comedy, well suited to the histrionic abilities of the cast. It proved to be one of the high spots of the year. The joint efforts of the Student Council and the Senior Class resulted in another winter social event — the Snow-Ball — the feature of which was the choice of Al Butters and Shirley Eklund as king and queen of Norwood High. About this time, too, Miss Jane O ' Sul- livan, our pretty and popular school nurse, resigned to be married, and her duties were taken over by Miss Margaret Ryan. And as another year draws to a close, in retrospect we see how greatly we are indebted to our principal, Mr. Hayden, to our chief class advisers, Miss Gow, Mr. Gormley, and Mr. Learnard, and to Mrs. Riley, who worked un- tiringly to make our Yearbook an outstanding one, and to all our teachers for the part they played in shaping the success of our three happy years at Norwood High. To them goes our sincere and profound appreciation with the assurance that through their help and guidance we, the 49 ' ers, have found the gold we sought in that thar Hill. M. H.
