The date was December 9th, the theme was Christmas, the event Our Christmas Dance at which there was a large attendance. The hall was beautifully decorated, the music was good, the refreshments were delicious, and everyone had a good time. High achievements were made by the class in scholastics and in the various extra curricular activities. Again the ushers for the Senior Class Play were our own handsome men: Leonard Creeden, Barry Eldridge, Robert Gillette, Allan Isham, jack Watson, and William Webb. On the most wintery night of February the Sophomores went on a skating party which proved to be a big success. Yvonne Griffiths served as hostess. Our project for Stunt Night was a pantomime entitled Princess Non Such. Although it didn't prove to be the best stunt, the class enjoyed preparing and presenting it. May the coming year be as eventful! ROBERT GILLETTE, '52 WILLIAM KEY, '52 Frnnf lfnu-: .l. Wi-st, ll. Butler. A. lslmm. W. Wi-hh. N. Ruminc, W. Key, P. Brooks. B. Van lluskirk.

Madolyn Lawrence Student Counril Barbarajones, Robert Winchester The class of 1951, under the direction of the class adviser, Miss Margaret Boor- nazian, has participated in many school activities this year. During the winter months we went on a skating party. Doris Swanson, hostess, entertained us at her home. It was a wonderful evening. Our own Robert Winchester was chosen King at the South Shore Victory dance. Thejunior Prom, its theme April Showers, was held on April 14th. The decorations were outstandingg the Starlighters, from Hanover, provided the music and it was generally agreed that our Prom was one of the most beautiful and successful dances ever held at P. H. S. Thejunior Verse Speaking Choir, organized by Mrs. Etelman, participated in several activities throughout the year. On the annual radio program at WBET in Brockton, Eugene Peterson was one of the feature readers. The entire choir is to have a prominent part at graduation this year. The annual Christmas program under the guidance of Mrs. Etelman was planned by our class. The Choir, thejunior Men and Women Singers with Soloists Elizabeth Willoughby, Marjorie Styron, and Eugene Peterson entertained in a manner long to be remembered. Inter- pretive readings by jeanne Fisher, Doris Swanson, and Madolyn Lawrence were well received. Three members of our class, jane Turner, Bernice Grows, and john Carceau are now attending other schools. Another member, joseph Arushan, left to join the service. We were pleased to welcome jean Fisher from St. Ann's Academy in Marlboro' Doris Swanson, from Avon High School, and Brant Boynton fromjamaica Plain High Schooli MAR ORIE STYRON, '51 EUG NE LASSONDE, '51 l23l

Mae Wayne, Joanna Wyman In our first year of high school we established ourselves in Room 5 under the super- vision of Mrs. Etelman. We welcomed to our class five new members: Barbara Lambert, Leona Fox, Joyce Mason, Onley Cahill, and james Lundergan. We had many girls and boys partici- pating on the school's athletic teams. Everyone joined enthusiastically in the basketball intra- murals and the class rated high in the final standings. Our class conducted a successful drive in the early part of the year to obtain toys for under-privileged children as Christmas presents. Our class, conjuring with our adviser, designed a spectacular feat for Stunt Night, at least we thought so! The highest honors bestowed on our class was the winning of Red and White Week, the prize being a party held in the cafeteria. The class sponsored their first affair, The Freshman Barn Party, early in the Spring. This big event was very enjoyable to everyone else and satisfy- ing to us. All these exciting events in the school year added up to the belief that going to school can be fun. ANNE BAIRD, '55 EDWARD ROBERTS, '55 il30 l o 0
