THE WHIRLPOOL The Whirlpool 7720 PENNELL INSTITUTE Gray, Maine : 1950 ` PENNELL INSTITUTE Y PENNELL SONG Pennell, dear old Pennell, To us you seem so dear. What we are hereafter We owe our school davs here. Let days seem bright or dreary, Let things go right or wrong, Well sing with cheerful hearts The words of this old song. Crorus We have come here day by day As the hours pass away. Every year here brings us nearer To the time when we shall part, Care and sadness in our hearts We will think of the days spent here. ‘Midst schools of all nations Ours has done its part, Both for men in service And loyalty in heart. And as the National Banner’s Unfurl’d among the trees, We're proud of the flag of service That floats on the light breeze. Karı E. Lipsy, Sr., ’20. � о 1950 THE WHIRLPOOL жа ——— | We, the Class of 1951, dedicate this edition of the Whunrroor to Mrs. Bowie who has been a member of the Pennell faculty during the past four years, teaching Home Economics and Biology.

Ekewen PENNELL INSTITUTE EDITORIALS THE HIGH SCHOOL, THEN AND NOW Let us turn our thoughts back to the year 1838, when the first provision for a school of higher education was made. The town hall was erected this same year, and it is believed that sessions were held in that building. Not much is known about this first school, al- though the principal was J. M. Durgin and 64 pupils were enrolled. In 1869, a Gray High School was estab- lished, and sessions were held in a red brick school on the Shaker Road and later in the town hall. Some years the school was free and some years it was conducted as a private school. Naturally the attendance was higher wacen the schooling was free. Henry Pennell a wellto-do citizen of Gray, became interested in the town's educa- tional privileges, and made plans for the estab- lishment of a high school. Mr. Pennell be- lieved that there should be free high school education for all those who desired it. In 1876, the original brick building was erected on an open field above the center of the village. This building was planned and erected by Mr. Pennell. The school did not open until ten years later because of insufli- cient funds for equipping and operating the school. Any pupils between the ages of 10 and 25 could attend the school; but, because of the many unprepared pupils, a preparatory course of grade subjects was necessary to prepare the pupils for the Freshman Class. Study hours were instituted between 7 and 9 each evening, and no pupil was to be seen at any place other than his home during these hours, except on week-ends. The school was opened in 1886, two years after Mr. Pennell’s death. The principal was Lee B. Hunt, Gray, who was assisted by the three other teachers. There were three courses offered and about 100 pupils registered. The first graduation was held at the old Congregational Church in May, 1889. The program took place in the morning hours by candlelight. The heat was so terrific that many of the audience fainted and had to be carried out. The first graduating class con- sisted of five girls and one boy. The first few Тегесе graduations set a pattern which has been fol- lowed by succeeding classes, varying very little. In the early nineteen hundreds, a chemistry laboratory was erected and the building was later converted into a Home Economics and Manual Arts building. When the Stimpson Memorial Hall was completed, most school events took place there until 1937, when the new gymnasium, a gift of George Newbegin, was dedicated. After that, most school events took place in the gymnasium. There are five courses at the | lich School now. Although that is only two more than originally, the courses have changed a great deal. Present courses are Vocational, Gen- eral, Technical, College, and Commercial. There are about 105 pupils in the | 1 ch School and there has been a large increase in the past few years. At the present time, the teachers number six as compared to four originally. The Commercial Course is the newest, and is steadily expanding, both in pupils and sub- jects. This year a new building is being erected beside the gymnasium to provide for the en- largement of the Commercial Course and to provide for a larger and more complete Manual Arts shop. Let us all do our best to make PENNELL a school of high scholastic standing. Ми� е VERRILL, 51. EDITORIAL Why do more people follow high school bas- Кеб а! than baseball? Did you ever stop to think that it costs more to equip a baseball team than it does a basketball team? People all flock to see the Red Sox play or any other big league team play, but they don't bother to come to see the potential play- ers that are just getting started on their career. Most everyone likes baseball and likes to watch big league ball games; but you can see just about the same amount of competition in high school contests. Pennell is planning on a winning team, so why don't you come out and see some cham- pionship ball played right in your own home town! - Donrnr Sawyer, 51.

The illustrious “Class of 1950” has finally achieved its goal—we are Seniors! ! The first outstanding deed of our class w:s to elect the following officers: President, Robert Webb; Vice President, Patricia Carll; Secretary, Jeanette Bishop; Treasurer, James Мет, Student Council Members, Helen Sawyer, Philip Whitney. Representing our class in basketball were: Robert Webb, James Verrill, Wendell White, Patricia Carll, Dorothy Beck, Marion Foster, Helen Sawyer, Ellen Kimball (Manager), On the cheering squad were: Patricia Carll, Barbara Mason, and Barbara Keene. And last but not least our swimming team represen.a- tives wore: Patri cia Carll, Dorothy Beck, and James Мега. On November 17th and 18th we presented the three-act play “Little Women.” If the public enjoyed it as much as we enjoyed par- ticipating in the production, it may be consid- ered a big success. We were indeed grateful for Mr. Fred Skilling's services in regard to the make-up department. Other social activities sponsored by our class were socials, dances, an amateur contest, and a food sale. All proved to be successful affairs. All plans are arranged for our class trip to Washington, D. C., in April, and we are en- thusiastically looking forward to it. Last but not least, our final event will be held in the near future . . . graduation, and it is with mingled feclings of regret and antici- pation that we look forward to it. JEANETTE Bisuor, Secretary. THE SENIOR PLAY November 18th and 19th at Stimson Memo- rial Hall the class of '50 presented an old classic, “Little Women.” Marion Foster, as Meg, was suitably shy and reserved, and Jim Verrill as John Brook was the appropriately bashful lover. Jeanette “Jo” Bishop was a perfect tomboy in spite of the hoopskirt and Patty Carll as Beth was a perfect contrast. Dot Beck as Amy made good use of her “vocabilary.” Ellen Kimball and Martin Barker were the proud parents. Dolores Worden as Aunt March was a perfect eccentric old maid, although we thought she should have married Mr. Lawrence, the rich old neighbor, well played by Eddie Butler. Beady Marr, cast in her usual role, На� � аћ Mullet, the cook, came on and off stage at the right moments and told everyone else their cues, too. Phil Whitney was a good Laurie, although it taxed his strength at times. Wendell White as Professor Bhaer enjoyed the part, particularly in the last act the last 1950 night. Every crack and hole backstage was filled by at least one eye to see a bewhiskered Bhaer kiss a not so enthusiastic Jo. The part of the dog was played by Snooks Witham the first night and Piddles Beck the second. Helen Sawyer was our confused prompter and Barb Witham did an excellent job on the programs. They also played small parts in the play. Mrs. Dempsey was our patient coach and helped us eat the popcorn, candy, apples and other goodies we consumed every rehearsal. We also want to thank the “3M's” of hot lunch for their help, kind words and food. We literally dug up the costumes in an ef- fort to make them authentic to the period. The favorable reports from the townspeople snowed that they were glad that Stimson Hall was being used again for dramatics. Dor Аму Beck, 50. Doronzs “Aunt Marca” WonpEN, '50. Fifteen PENNELL INSTITUTE JUNIOR CLASS REPORT We knew when we began our Junior year that it would be a busy one, and this proved very true. In the class at the beginning of the year, we found 26 members, with one new member, Howard Lewis, added to our class. Carolyn Garland transferred from Falmouth shortly after our Christmas recess. President for the class of 51 this year, we found Paul Bowen; Vice President, Gerald Humphrey; Secretary, Muriel Verrill; and Rita Sayward, Treasurer. Representing us on the Student Council were Cora Leach znd Richard Morton. Those who participated in the swim meets from our class were: Cora Leach, Muriel Ver- rill, Frederick Ayer, and Horace Libby. On November 4th, with Ozzie Miller's or- chestra, we sponsored the annual Junior Prom. The dance was a great success. Our boys finally got up courage to wear tuxedos. They made quite a hit. We were well represented in basketball this year by both boys and girls. For the girls: Audrey Todd, Rita Sayward, Cora Leach, Marilyn Butler, and Muriel Verrill. For tke boys: Dick Ayer, Richard Morton, Frederick Ayer, Horace Libby, Hubert Cobb, Paul Bowen, Robert Sawyer, and Carl Duplisea. Gerald Humphrey was manager of the team. For the second year, Rita Savwa:d and Dick Ayer represented Pennell in the foul shooting contest. Cheerleaders were: Cora Leach and Mari- lyn Butler. On March 30th and 315: we prese: ed our sccond annual Minstrel Show. We have been kept very busy vin com- Yr ў p-eting the WHIRLPOOL and gettin: i to press. Heres hoping that next year wi; be as eventful and profitable for us as this year has been. Mune, Verri, '51. MINSTREL SHOW On March 30th and 31st, the class of '51 presented its second annual minstrel show. Our coaches were the same as last year, Mr. and Mrs. Karl Libby, and Mrs. Norman Libby. Warren Cole was our pianist. Geneva Burns, who coached the skit and helped with the makeup, Norman Libby and Victor Leach, who ran the spotlight, and Gerald Humphrey, with his amplifier, all helped to make our show a success. Little Barbara Hutchinson was an added attraction with her cute songs and dances. The program was as follows: Overture Opening Chorus .........................

The Freshman class has contributed its share of basketball players this winter and we ћорг some will be chosen for baseball. Ken- neth [ayes and Burchard Dunn were on the varsity basketball team, and Stearns Caswell and Richard Barter were on the junior var- sity. Judith Butler and Patricia Libby played for the girls’ basketball team. The boys who went out for fall baseball were: Kenneth Hayes, Robert Gibbs, Stearns Caswell, and Ruel Ord way. The cheerleaders from the Freshman class were: Judith Butler and Ruel Ordway. Eighteen The class officers were: President, Ruel Ordway; Vice President, Wayne Sherwood; Secretary, Robert Libby; Treasurer, Judith Butler. The members of the Freshman class were very co-operative in paying their dues. The class consists of twenty-nine pupils, seventeen boys and twelve girls. Although the Freshman class had the low- est average in rank during the first term, we climbed to the highest during the third and fourth terms. Ruzr Orpway, 753. STEARNS CAswELL, '53. 1949 == THE WHIRLPOOL LITERARY LOST IN BLACKMERE SWAMP Swampland has always been regarded by man with superstition and awe. This has been caused mostly by the fact that the terrain of a swamp renders it practically impassable. Thus very few people really understand the atmos- phere that exists in thickness of such swamps as Blackmere, one of the largest and most for- midable bogs of the Carolinas. Robin Tyburn was one of these few people, but even he did not wholly know what to ex- pect when one stormy day he lost his way in the great swamp. Robin was a man of sound mind and body. A trapper by profession, he was constantly pitting his knowledge and ex- perience against the wild. Ordinarily, in any other typo of wilderness, it would have been of smali concern to him to have lost his way, for he had spent many a night under the stars. Dut this was no ordinary losing of the way. lt was little short of certain death. Ile was certain that he had pushed very nearly to the center, a vast morass of water, swale grass, and cypress, from which no one had ever come alive and feared with apprehension and awe by all men who knew or imagined it. Robin knew that the swamps could drive a man in- sane in a matter of days by some uncanny and weird power it seemed to hold for those who dared trespass. He had seen some of the results. Не was sure that he wouldn't let it happen to him, but the first night he spent in Black- mere, he was launched into the terror that was to remain with him throughout the days and nights that he was to remain in the swamps. He had plunged through the water to a small dry island and had fallen into a fitful sleep of exhaustion. Suddenly he sat bolt up- right and stared at a mass of bluish light which somehow had awakened him. He threw a rock at it and it dissolved, seemingly uttering a low moan. CWe now know that it is a natural phenomena of nature peculiar to wet ground. It was fox-fire or phosphorus, formed by certain decayed vegetable matter.) It was harmless but it had done its bit in undermining his presence of mind. The second day he was desperate for food so he snared a squirrel to eat. But when he 1950 released it, it came to life а� а scampered away. This was the first of his hallucinations. That night he imagined that the trees were laughing and dancing to the music of the wind so he laughed and danced with them. He was out of his head now and going slowly mad. The third day he overheard a number of owls speaking a human language that he had never heard before. Yet he seemed to under- stand that they planned to steal his fire that night. There was a heavy thunderstorm at dusk and he awoke at midnight in a drenching downpour. He suddenly saw а beautiful maiden standing nearby. It roused him sufh- ciently to restore some of his former sanity. But when he ran after the flitting shape, screaming hoarsely for her to stop, she disap- peared just in time for him to grab and tear off a piece of her dress. He broke down completely then, babbling incohere ntly, and passed into a dead faint, from which he knew no more. He awoke on a pile of straw with the sun shining on his face. An old man was bending over him with a cup of something sweet smelling and warm. “You're all right now, son,” he said, but for atime I thought you were a goner.” “Where am I?” Robin whispered. You've been resting in my shelter for three ” Ж Ж « � weeks,” replied the hermit, “out of your head. As the hermit told him how he had found Robin unconscious and carried him home to the small hovel that was the hermit’s home and nursed him back to sanity, he fervently thanked the kind Divinity that had saved him. The hermit crossed the tiny room to a shelf, where he picked up a small ragged piece of cloth and showed it to Robin. It was a piece from a dress. I found this in your hand,” he told Robin, do you know how it got there? Bobin didn't speak, for he knew that no one would believe him. Who knows what terrors a swamp can hold for unwary wanderers? It is truly something which no person can comprehend. STEARNS CASWELL, '53. Nineteen =, THE FOXES OF HARROW А� Historical Novel By Frank Yerby Stephen Fox arrived in New Orleans in 1825, on a pig boat, with a ten-dollar gold piece, a pearl pin and his dream of building a big plantation. Stephen was tall, red-haired, with a clean cut looking face. Stephen saw his chance of getting what he wanted and took it from in- dolent, slave-ridden, caste-bound people. W.th his skill at cards, he gambled and won and built “Harrow,” the greatest manor house and plantation in Louisiana. Three women loved Stephen, all in their own different ways. Odalie Orceneaux was Stephen's unfortunate wife, who married him and then lived her days in darkness and terror, until she died, leaving Stephen his son. Aurore, her sister, hopelessly in love with Stephen, waited for a chance to succeed Odalie in Stephen's affections. Desiree, the lovely quadroon, remained a dark past in Stephen's background, suffering heartbreak, despair, and social ostracism to be near him. Stephen's son, Etienne, very much like his father, was influenced by the dark secrets hid- den behind the fine fagades of Harrow. Etienne was cruel and represented to Stephen a living retribution for his many sins. Stephen's daughter, Julie, who was born after Stephen married Aurore, was like her mother, good and always ready to help some- one. Stephen's plantation was ruined in the Civil War, in which he and his son both fought. But Stephen and Aurore never gave up their hope to build the plantation into the manor it was before the war. Author: Frank Yerby was born in Augusta, Georgia, on September 5, 1916. He began writing when he was seventeen. His first story that made any publicity was “Health Card.” His biggest story was “Foxes of Harrow”; an- other of his stories is Ignoble Victory,” a story based on the Reconstruction Period in the South. He is married and has three children —a boy, Jacques, and two girls, Nikki and Faunne. I liked the book because it really freshens your mind, not only to history but also to liv- ing conditions in those days when death might strike at any minute. Mary Tuurtow, '50. Титу PENNELL INSTITUTE SPORTS I am going to write about sports because 1 like them better than anything else. First of all, sports teach teamwork. In al- most every sport teamwork is necessary. lf a person tries to be an individualist, he will never get very far in either sports or general life. If a team doesn't have good teamwork, it is not much good. Sports also teach good sportsmanship. A team must be a good loszr as well as a good winner. When you are behind vou should never quit. A quitter never gets very far in sports or in everyday life. After a ball game you should give tne other team a cheer, whether you win or lose. This is one sign of goad sportsmanship. If a boy is going to participate in sports he must be in good condition and not smoke ог drink. Smoking often affects the jungs, and an athlete must be in top shape. If a boy is small, that doesn't mein he can't participate in athletics; many fine athletes are small. Although size helps, speed counts, too. Most track men are small and very fast. Usu- ally a small man is much faster than a big man. As Bud Cornish, Sports Editor of the Port- land Press Herald, says after his radio sports review each night, If your boy's in sports, he's not in mischief.” Lawrence Lispy, '52. THE DOG NEXT DOOR The dog next door is a pest; he is always taking things from our house, such as brooms and mops. Another trick of his is pulling clothes from the line. One day he stole my mother's hat, and we never found it until one day when I was looking for my boot which he had stolen. I looked in his dog house; there they were, the boot and the hat safely in one comer. He loves to put cats up trees, but he likes to eat them better. One day when my father went out to see if the clothes were still on the line, he heard a cat crying. He ran around the house to see what was the matter. The dog had one of our little kittens in his mouth. My father grabbed a shovel and hit the dog over the head until he let go. I guess that we will never have any peace until that dog is gone. CuanLEs QuaALEY, '52. —— ee - - 1949 === CREATIVE THINKING? ? It is 5:00 p.m. and the Henderson house- hold is unusually quiet. Cornelia thinks she'll rest for a few minutes while the potatoes are on the stove, the bread in the oven, and the steak in the broiler. Seating herself in her favorite chair, she soon becomes interested in the latest novel. Then comes the familiar ring of the telephone. Ah! yes, the telephone! So Cornelia lays aside her book and quickly hur- ries to answer it. “Hello.” Oh! Cornelia, my dear—it is you, isn't it? Well, this is Agnes. Yes, replied Cornelia, it is I, and how—” Agnes interrupts— ]I can't talk but а min- ute but Í just had to tell you—Agatha is suing Charles tor a divorce—because she caught him out with another woman—while she and Edgber: were on their way to the Night Club —of couise she presumed Charles was at work; others vou understand she wouldn’t have been out with Edgbert—but I should think he'd be relieved that he is finally going to get rid of her --and Julia is sending Annabelle to her grandmother's—because she threw her shoe through a closed window—I do think she could give her another chance as she did when she threw the ink in the washing machine— but then it's none of my business—I’ve been busy all day—met Clarabelle down town and stopped to talk for a minute—but you know how she likes to gossip—she told me about Agatha and Myrtle told her—but you know how news travels nowadays. And how is Joe? 1 do hope his cold is better—we ought to have a game of canasta some evening this week, don’t you think? Well, here comes Lorenzo, so I simply must go and get supper —but it has been so nice hearing your voice again—why don’t you give me a ring tomor- row and 11 tell you about the party we went to last night. Bye, now.” “Bye, Agnes.” Cornelia no sooner lays the phone down than a cloud of smoke rolls in from the kitchen. Making a mad dash for the stove, she quickly finds the cause of the s moke clouds— potatoes, bread, and steak all nicely blacked— and it was Joe’s favorite supper, too. Oh! well, he'd just have to understand it wasn't her fault—and now they could go out for dinner. So Cornelia goes back to the living room to await Joe's arrival and tell him the “News.” Bannana Witnam, '50. 1950 THE WHIRLPOOL VACATION DAYS Vacation days are enjoyed by us all. We love the thought of sleeping late and doing as we wish all day. Best of all, what a relief to forget studies! In the winter there's skiing and skating; in the summer, swimming. What a noise is heard the day we get out of school! Shouts can be heard for miles. Now, here's my view of the subject. I like vacations, but I also like school. I can see all the girls and boys that live outside of town, whereas during vacation I may not see them. Sometimes at vacation we get tired of the things we had planned, and often we say, “Т! be glad when school starts. Another one that likes school is mother. She can't do much with us running in and out. Of course she likes to have us home, but it's easier to work when we are out of the way. Don't think I don't like vacation because I do. But I like school just as much. Јчотн Lissy, '52. CHRISTMAS NECKTIES Christmas Day comes and you're well satis- fied with all gifts, except the one your aunt gave you—a necktie! You sit there gazing at it, wondering if somebody had been under the influence of intoxicating beverages when he painted it. The colors are out of this world, and you claim you wouldn't be seen wearing it. But to your disgust your aunt is staying for dinner and you will have to wear it. So with much hesi- tation you finallv put it on. You wonder why anyone in his right mind would buy the thing or why anyone would sell it. You think they would be embarrassed by putting such a hide- ous article on the market. It doesn't stay tucked down inside of your coat because it's one of those new-fangled things with a square bottom. You say, The guy that invented neckties oughta be shot! After your aunt leaves, you yank the thing off and Ted it into the stove. You will proba- bly be very much relieved to think that you will never see that hideous Christmas necktie again and will be able to sleep with a load off your mind. Rarer Lasuua, 52. Тасету-о� е AMERICANISM ESSAY Are you an American? The natural answer would be, “ОЁ course,” but are you really? When the pilgrims came here they wanted a free place to worship God and ever since then people have been coming to this country for the very same thing. The Negroes were brought to this country against their will by the white people and ever since the first Negro set foot in America he has been treated like dirt. The Jew was driven from his home, and hearing good reports about America he de- cided to settle here. If he expected to be wel- comed with open arms he must have received quite a surprise. And so it goes through all races and all re- ligions. You say, “Well, it isn’t my fault.” When you meet a man from a different race on the street do your eyes pop out of your head, do you detour wav around him; or do you just walk by him as if he were like you? We should remember that the Negro, the Jew, the Italian, all are American citizens. They vote; they have the same rights as we do. Even if they are of different colors and religions from us, they also have feelings. They can laugh and cry. We must make them laugh, not cry. If we all remember that we came from the same Creator this can be done. Think all this over and hold your head high as you say, I am an American.” Aupney M. Topp, '51. WHY? Did you ever wonder what goes on inside a person's mind? Did you ever wonder what you would find in the farthest corner? It is something man has desired since he first learned to reason. Perhaps if we could see inside a Jazz musi- cian, a dope addict, or an evangelist, we could find out why—why we are here, why we exist as we do, NS there is always the other side of the track, why people love and hate as they do. The task would be a hard one because it is a rough road to those thoughts. We have to jounce over hate and greed, and detour around doubt and prejudice. Once there it will take a while to adjust ourselves to this new rarefied atmosphere. Per- haps we will find it hard to talk, with nothing to gossip about and no one to pick apart. We may find much that is difficult to believe. Ттсету-1 со PENNELL INSTITUTE Here we find our petty beliefs are pebbles under our feet. Меге, beliefs exist, but only to those with perfect faith. We may wonder if such а place really exists. We may question and find something missing, and then we will sadly leave. We will encounter prejudice, and see people laugh at our awkward ways, our speech, our color. We begin to doubt our religion, our schools, our government, and everything we believe in. We are in a turmoil of confusion. We have hate in our hearts for our fellow men. We think only of the gold in our hands. It is our clutching fingers that turns its pure vellow to green. We have completed our journey. Everyone will take it when they explore their own minds. They may get stuck in the ruts oi hate and greed, and they may take the wrong road around prejudice and doubt. The: ту find themselves lost in a wilderness and come out at the beginning of their road. Perhaps a time will come when this road will be smoothed and straightened, but we are the only ones who can do it. Dor Bre, 750. VALUE OF ATHLETICS Some people believe that too much stress is placed on athletics. They believe that it is all right to have sports, but that when athletics аге put over school subjects it is time to stop. One of the reasons is that in many of our present colleges money is given athletes for playing. Sports are a source of income for many of our high schools. The receipts are used to buy sporting equipment in most high schools and colleges. Some people believe athletics develop sound, clean minds and a will to strive for success, and that athletes make better citizens. To be sure, athletics develop a rugged, competitive spirit, but is this sometimes destroyed by too much glory? How much better citizen will the plain non-sportsminded fellow make than the athlete? To me athletics are worthwhile and im- portant to a democratic nation. It is one thing in which everyone has an equal chance, and whether a man is dark or white, it does not mean he is a better athlete.

Put all the storm windows on just so, Then the wind will stay out ‘tho it may blow. There are good sides to the winter, too; The white ground and sky so blue; The trees are pretty all in white, With Ан shining down at night. Sliding and skating will soon be born. We'll all be sorry when the winter is gone. Yes, winter is both good and bad; While some are glad others seem sad. The older folks think it is rather rough, But I don’t call it so very tough. Like it or not, that's up to you. There’s always summer to look forward to. Јортн І� ввү, '52. GIVING I gave a day to the eternal sun And received a bit of light. I hung it in a child's soft hair To lessen fear of night. I gave a guess to a passing cloud And it gave me my guess in return, In an accurate, sensible, sudden way That would make a weatherman yearn. I gave a smile to a puppy's play, With his funny long legs and feet; And he made me play and be foolish again For a moment that was much too fleet. I gave a sigh for a shivering tree With its fingers reaching for God, And it said, I have Him and His children, too, With my feet firmly grasping the sod. I gave a tear to a contrite word And received a red-rimmed eye. I gave my best to what I was And let the rest go by. D. Beck, '50. Key to Activities Photo on Preceeding Page D 1.

Twenty-four IN THE FOREST When the snow and cold Of winter are o’er, And summer is here In its glory once more— I'll go to the forest Where all is serene And sit for awhile By a bubbling stream. A green velvet carpet А Nature’ll spread at my feet. Moss and ferns, wozdland flowers, Fragrant pines, spicy sweet. With such beauty around me, Bitter memories will cease. My troubles will vanish, Everywhere will be peace. I'll watch frisky squirrels Scamper near, unafraid; Other forest folk gather Like an animal parade. And the birds from the treetops Will burst forth in song, To bring my heart happiness All the day long. While the stream splashes by I will feel like a queen, In that flamed “Magic Garden,” As I sit there and dream. Ruru Ма� зн, 751. KIND WORDS A kind word is spoken, And maybe there’s a tear; This heals a heart that’s broken, And makes a friend most dear. A word has crushed to earth Many budding flowers, Which had smiled from their birth, And blessed the darkest hours. Then it is not an idle thing, To speak an unkind word, Because hard thoughts you bring, May better be unheard. CarLene Tripp, '52.

TINY HANDS Tiny hands will grasp the air, Reaching for the sun, Pulling little light-beams in To eat them, one by one. Reaching for an unknown star, They yearn to clutch and know And feel a mighty reaper's grain: To watch and see him sow.

Eddie's a member of the human race, А bunny sort of a case. iic spends most of his time In the occupation sublime O! feisurely stuffing his face.

And then there’s another called Bea, Who's quite opposite, as we shall see. She’s the Mutt of the pair, Although the other'd be quite fair, If she'd take off a bustle or three. A basketball player named Jim Had a mind that was slightly dim. Onc exciting game, To bring the school fame, Не threw himself, not the ball, at the rim. Our Dotty is really athletic, But at basketball she’s pathetic. When on the gym floor She falls through the door, And bounces like rubber synthetic. There’s a Senior boy named Phil, Who said I won't when he should say “I will. The chip on his shoulder Soon knocked him over, And then he took the shape of a pill. Now whe never they see Mary Thurlow, All the G. I.'s ask for a furlough. But Sonny still knows Where the Wild Goose goes, And so does sweet Mary Thurlow. There’s a fellow named Wendell White. As a pitcher he was all right, Except around inning six Flis curve ball went nix, And he blew up higher than a kite. 1950 PON О у� д ge = (MIO deut) I 00 MON боје о ODNANEWN— со; буу� de рә ко; домом о о = THE WHIRLPOOL Doey used to be a problem child.

What have you to say?” Skip: “I am sorry, Dad, but it might have been worse.” Father: How could it be any worse?” Skip: “It might have been a larger class.” “You ought to charge me only half price for cutting my hair since I am practically bald,” said the man in the barber chair. “In your case,” replied the barber, “we don't charge for cutting it, but for the time spent in hunting for it.

An inquisitive oldster asked, What do the papers you sell cost you? Three cents, answered Lawrence. Oldster: What do you sell them for? Three cents, was the answer. Goodness, son, said the man, you can't make any profit doing business that way. Why do you sell papers for what they cost you? Oh, answered Lawrence, I do it because it gives me a chance to holler all I want to. Freddy: Is it true that I am made out of dust, Daddy?

Three Scotchmen had bet on a dime as to who could stay under the water longest—all three drowned. Two old fishermen got into in argument one day about arithmetic, and cach one was sure ће knew more than the other. The argu- ment got so hot that the captain of the fishing boat decided to take a hand in it, and gave them a problem to work out. If a fishing crew caught 500 pounds of cod and brought their catch to port, and sold it for eight cents a pound, how much would they get for the fish? The two old codgers went to work but neither seemed to get anywhere. At last Old Bill turned to the captain and asked him to re- peat the problem. The captain agreed. If a fishing crew caught 500 pounds of cod— Did you say they caught cod? Sure, said the captain. Well, no wonder I couldn't get the answer,” said Bill. “Неге I've been figuring on salmon all the time. Mr. Bowie: Whenever my wife needs moncy she calls me handsome. Mr. Dempsey: Handsome? Mr. Bowie: Yeah—handsome over!” The party of tough card players were return- ing home by t rain from the races. I'm finished, said one, flinging down his hand in disgust. The game ain't straight. “Wot yer mean—not straight?” demanded another fiercely. “I mean it's crooked,” snarled the first.

There are two girls who play on either side of the floor, Cora Leach and Barbara Brown. This year four girls leave us through eraduaion — Patty Carll, Dorothy Beck, Marion Foster and Helen Sawyer. The first tree have played all four years. The high scorer this year was Rita “Stretch” Sayward with 311. Next in line were: Barb Polla rd with 187, Patty Carll with 185, Patty Libby 21, Judi Butler 9, Marion Foster 9, Betty Ferri 4, Muriel Verrill 2, Dot Beck 2, Cora Leach 1. We started our season by playing the Alum- nae. This was just a practice game, but some of the members on both teams still had to learn the meaning of sportsmanship. We won, 41 to 20. PonrEn—We had to fill in a game for the boys, so we played just for fun, but we came out on top. That was certainly an exciting game! About tied all the way, but who cares, we won 5] to 40. бт� ҹріѕ=н—] guess we were too sure of ourselves. None of us hit the basket and what a loss, 33 to 45. Fatmouti—We lost our first-string for- ward by sickness in this game but we tried just the same. This is the first time we played the team, and didn't know their tricks. We lost, 51 to 28. Woopstock—We played a hard game but fell apart in the last quarter to lose 46 to 41. М� хрнам— Ме really wanted а win for a change and were out to see if we could catch one. The game was tied all the way and in the Jast few seconds of play Pat Adams had a foul shot coming; of all the times she made it to win by one point, 51 to 52. New Gtoucestex—We didn't expect to win but we wanted a turn at them, too. What can you expect from us? I guess we learned a Ist about the meaning of sportsmanship that night. We lost, 102 to 42. FnggPonT— WE WON. This was a lucky game for us, with all of the forwards hitting the basket, and the guards working together, too. We came out with the game, 56 to 10. SrANDISui—Guess they were just too much for us; we lost again, 65 to 41. Freerornt—We had hard luck that day but fought to the finish to win 49 to 44. Scanrono—We played this team last year and found the girls such wonderful sports we looked forward to meeting them this year. The game was very close all the way. but they came through to win 57 to 53. New GroucEsrER—Weo lost, 90 to 49, but then it was fun. Faraiourii— We had bad luck and we lost 40 to 50. Winpuam—Guess we surprised them in this game, but we wanted to win. Yes, we came back the victors and not by one point, cither. We won, 62 to 55. Scarsoro—This was a very close game but we closed our season with a win, 44 to 43.

Jim Verrill came in second place in the breast stroke and Freddie Ayer fourth in the 25-yard free style. Ribbons were awarded to Jim Verrill, Fred- die Ayer, Cora Leach and Patty Libby for winning in the finals. We are losing Jim Ver- rill, Dorothy Beck, and Patricia Сат by graduation this year.

This was light- ened somewhat, however, by the signs of great improvement at the end of the season. In the play-off game at the Portland Boys’ Club, al- though we were competing with Gorham, a TEAM SCORES heavy favorite, we nearly won. We are losing three men by graduation, Jim Verrill, Bobby Webb, and Wendell White. However, we look forward to the coming season with hope- ful anticipation.
