I FOKEWOKD Every thoughtful American is trying to do his bit in the War Program. One way re can help is by striving to do our particular duties more efficiently. As school teackwrs, we should be willing to give more time to pupils who need special help. As a result they will be better qualified for the specific work they choose to do or for which our government decides they are best fitted. Opportunities are continually presenting themselves to high school pupils with a good scholastic record. These pupils should not be content unless they are Qiving their test effort, Because a tizinf, that is worth doing is worth doing, well . Hany of our present pupils are studying special cours- es. Others have agreed to act as special firemen to aid the local department in sn emergency. Such duties are not compulsorV. These pupils ire doing 'their hit now and I know tlat later on they till be receiving good interest on the time ani effort they are new giving. We are prdud of our aluxni fho .f.' ere in active service and wish them safe voyage. I diff c .9 l .L 4.-4 . THANKS ll This edition is dedicated to all of the men in the service.

They stopped their steeds near where I was and prepared for a rest before they resumed their journey. I had a good chance for close examination of their leader. E . He was a his fellow with bright blue eyes that could LJ look right through you. He was courteous, as knights should be, tut how he could fight! His steed was big and strong, with power equal to that of several hundred or- dinary horses. The armor, unlike that of the knights of old, was of dull finish, but nowhere could one find a speck of rust. The spear which he carried ,could reach many times farther than one used by King Arthur. In- deed, Arthur never dreamed of a knight armed with a caravan For small arms he carried three machine guns which could well protect him. In his belt my knight carried, instead of a dagger, a .45 caliber automatic. He is indeed a tough customer. ' This knight does not concern himself with touring the countryside looking fore a chance to fight. Indeed, he knows that he has only to travel east and he will someday meet the enemy. He also knows that he must watch the heavens for the dreaded Stuka,and the land for the dreaded Artillery. However, with all these new difficul- ties, he has no fear, but guides his stced, a giant of thirty tons, with a sure hand. Well may the foe be frijhtened by our champion, who defends our freedom and our right to the pursuit of hap- piness. For he has no fear, and one Cay he will drive the foe hack to his line, as he roars to the attack in his thundering tank which spits fire. Tor he fights un- der the banner of the Stars and Stripes. George Barnes '45 WEST ROAD INN PETERSHAMQ MASSACHUSETTS LUNCHEONS DINNEFQS OVERNIGHT GUESTS PETERSHAM :us -7 MCTHER KNOWS BEST! One day last summer, Barbara Gillis and I decided to go swimming at Brown's Pond. The air was rather hazy, and my mother said we nadn't better go because it was going to rain. She thought that there would be a tnunderslower. Doing about as I pleased, anyhow, I started on my way down to 3ar1ara's house. The only tklnj I were was my red bathing suit. I met Barbara at ner house, and then we headed for the pond. ' As we passed tne red bcrn or East Street, Duell's bull was out in the road to greet us. We were so scared that we could hardly move.

The first thing I thought of was, 'il-Iother 'gnerfs bcstl' DorotLy Preble '45 THE TRAFFIC POLICEMAN like had had a hard day. lt seemed to him that there was more traffic since rationing had started than less.

Ken Richards 'X MY DEBUT AS A SINGQNG COWGIRL I hope the story I shall now relate will interest you all. It concerns the first time I ever sang with my brothers' cowboy outfit, and, as you will see, it wasn't as simple as one might think. I had always wanted very much to sing with them, but my brother always informed me that I was too young, even though he always made me sing with him at home. However, I waited patiently until one night when we had sung to- gether very well. Then, to my suprise, he said, nWell, I guess we'll have to sing that on our next show.H To say the least, I glad, and I said to myself, Boy, just what I've been uniting for.n Friday, August seventh, dawned bright and clear.fHns was my big day, so I had my hair fixed and yet some elodrs that would resemble those of a cowgirl. The show was in the Y.H.C.A. in Athol, and the crowd was very good. The Hboys2 that is,uThe Red River Rangersn and uLorraine, The Yodeling Sweetheartn, were the pedbrm- ers. I sat down in the front row, having about as bad a case of sta,efri3ht as anyone could have. My teeth were chattering as badly asifit were January instead of Aqnwt. Ty friends were trying to console me and Ubuekn me up,but I guess I didn't appreciate them very much. I was positive I would do something to disgrace myself, like starting on the wrong key, forgetting the words, or having my voice breab Finally, however, I was on the stage and all set to sing the song, which was called HJust Beeauseng but after a couple of glances at the audience, I was ready to pass out. You'd be surprised to know what a feeling itis to be upon s stage with about two hundred geople looking at you as if you were a curiosity from the zoo. I decided the audience was no place to look if I wanted to get through the song, so I concentrated on the nmiken instead because that didn't make faces at me as ble people did. . At last I finished, and I dashed off the stage with my face looking like s sunset on a rod brick house. To my surprise the audience actually seemed to like it, and they elapsed for an encore. Afterwards, several people congratulated me, and I was so embarrassed I could hardly say nthanksvn Thus ended my debut. Ruth Hcwbury '45 10 ALL IS NOT DULI. AT THE LOST AND FOUND DEPT. Union Station was busy and crowded as always. Streams of people, bags and boxes clutched in their hands, rushed hither and thither, going as if they were bent on a life or death mission. In fact, it seemed that all the typesof humanity in the world flowed in and out of the many doors. It was about eleven o'clock on s spring day, and.theclerks at the baggage-checking counter were working at top speed to care for the neverending flow of people. A middle-aged man, carrying a large alligator-grained traveling bag, worked his way through the people surround- ing the counter and presented the bag to be checked until a day later. Seeing nothing unusual, one of theclerkslmr- riedly wrote a baggage check for him and stowed the expenshe looking bag away under number twenty-three. Several days passed, and the man did not return to claim his bag. The time for bags to be held having elapsed, the bag was transferred to the lost and found de- partment. - One day soon after, the clerks decided to qynxit. They put the bag on the counter and examined it. Seeing nothing suspicious on the outside, a clerk inserted a skeleton key in the lock and opened it. Then things began to happen! Out of the bag scooted snakes--snakes of all kinds and varieties: rattlers, water snakes, ribbon snakes, and even three turtles. Then what feminine squealing, gasps of amazement and shouts broke forth. Clerks afterwards declared they never saw thepaxde move as fast as they did when the contents of the bag came to light. Finally, the snakes were captured and returned to the bag by the clerks with the help of several of the braver gentlemen in the crowd. The bag was donated to thc St.Luns Zoo with all twenty-one reptiles intact. The clerks later stated that they hoped it was the last snake round-up for a long time. Ruth Newbury 145 IVIR.sndI IRS. LEWIS BABBITT LECTURES Gnd BIOLOGY SUPPLIES ll THE F31 OWU -LGQDXI N-G PONY The horses at the Spencer Fair were divided into two classes: full-grown horses and ponies. One boy rode a pony that was so small and frowzy-look ing that it wasn't entered in the shows, and when it stood at the starting line for the pony rece, it did not look as though it belonged there either. They all got off to a aood start, that is, all except J. 'V C 1 the lietif frowzy pony, which was tne smallest of them all, for he was left way behind. He gained steadily, however, and on the home stretch he suddenly burst into terrific speed, passed the others, and crossed the finishing linein win the race ty a large margin. The crowd was surprised and amused by the unexpected victory, and they cheered enthusiastically. The Qun went off which started thc horse race, and to everyonc's surprise the frowsy pony was running also. From the very beyinning he kept up the terrific speed which he had shown during the latter part of the pony race and managed to keep in second and third place until, aeain on the home stretch, he put on still more speed and won tho race by helf a head. The crowd went wild this time, but there was a dis- pute among the jud5es as to whether or not the pony was entitled to the prize, because it was not e pony race. The crowd voiced their opinion in fsvor of the pony, and it was finally decided that the pony had more than earned its prize. Alice Harper '45 COMPLIMENTS OF NSS, WITHING TON PETERSHAM, MASSACHUSETTS 12 LET US CDLJT I knew I was to be non stagen in about ten minutes, so I out the final touches to my clothes and hair and prepared ' to'leave the dressing room. Hy friend Lorraine, a pretty young singing cowgirl, was also there, preparing her not which was to follow my song. I stepped to the door and was about to put my hand on the knob, when I heard FH ominous click followed by hurriedly departing footsteps. ' I quickly grabbed the knob and pulled, but as I had feared, it didn't open, I twisted the knob back and forth, pulled and pushed, but all in vain. It was locked! Lorraine rushed over to see what was the matter, but could not open it either. We smiled nervously at each other and said rather unconvincingly that someone would be sure to be along to let us out soon, but no one came. ' I looked. at the clock and began to pound the dooq but Lorraine exelaimed,'IHy don't do that. The crowd'll hear vouln hCertainly, I hope son, I replied, nI'a not stay- ing here all night.n Just then, another girl came to the door, but we could not let her in. Ie infonned hor the door Jas locked, and she promptly found the policeman, the janitor, a couple of cowboys and another nan, but even they couldn't open it. Apparently, the culprit who locked us in had the only key. They racked their brains on one side of the door while we two girls fusscd and fumed impatiently on the other. Presently, they went away and we thought we had been deserted, but soon we heard them tapping on the window. By dint of moving half the furniture and junk in the roon, ue were able to Let near enoufh to raise the window. Then we were calmly informed to stick our feet out the window so they could pull us out. I took one apprehensive look at the window and be- gan to wonder how much I would Though we didn't like the iiea have to shrink to make it. , me knew it was the only way out, so out the tiny window we went in a very undigni- fied MQDHSP.

Ruth Newbury '45 13 ANINTERESTING INCIDENT WHICH HAPPENED THIS SUMMER One day this summer, while at work on a near by farm, I hit upon a plan for some excitement. The next morning I got up early and was out of the house withouti awakenhg anyone. I made my way to Boston by means of my thumb. It was about eleven o'clock when I arrived, so I went into the HPeter Pann and ate my lunch. It was there I met a young fellow about my own age, and immediately I felt as if I had known him all my life. Nhow would you like to take a ride in my sloop,Jm02W Don asked. I told him I would like to, so we went to the wharf where his boat was tied. We cast off the painter , and soon we were making good time up the coast line.About two hours later I noticed a long black boat, which had once been a tramp steamer,wrecked about a mile offshore . It was s3t'ina so low in the water we could hardly tell what it was at first. Upon crawling nearer, we noticed the name of the ship to be WBlack Catn. Wwhy don't we go aboard?H I asked. NWell, if you really want to, we can take a look a- round,W Don answered. We spent the whole afternoon exploring the ship be- cause it was very interesting to be in a wrecked tramp freighter. The time passed so quickly that we didn't re- alize that it was dark wlen we finally came on deck again. We were just coming out from behind the forward oabin.when I heard a low whistle. UDuck!W Don whispered as we ducked behind the cabin. The whistle grew steadily to a shrill scream. Then, as I peeked around the corner, I saw something white float up through the floor of the deck. It went about four feetir to the air and was suspended there for a brief moment,tnm1 it started danckg'back and forth towards us, accompanied by the whistle, which grew as the thing came closer and closer. Steadily and slowly it advanced, moving closer each moment. Finally, it came to within ten feet of us, then with a loud shriek it sank through the floor again. For about five minutes neither of us dared to move for fear it would happen again. Finally, we took a chamw and crept around to the other side of the deck and .slip- ped away into the night. Gerald Murcell fl-I3 lb A REVIEW OF THE ICE FOLLIES OF 1943 The lightsblink out, the band and audience rise as one, and as the strains of the national anthem ring forth, there suddenly appears on the ice WOld Gloryn, rippling forth in all its beauty. The last note of the NStar Span- gled Banneru dies away, and a voice welcomes you tothe nice Follies of l9b3N. Thus begins one of the most beau- tiful andmumsual shows ever presented. The first scene represents an enchanted lake. Green lights east a soft glow over what appears to be a lake covered with beautiful green and white water lilies. Pres sently the lilies begin to glide and drift gently over the ice, other glittering Ereenclad figures appear, and soonit truly looks like an enchanted lake.. The lilies drift away, and a little goldenehaired winter sprite comes forth to gaily dance and pirouette over the silvery expanse. Next, huge light snowmen tumble out on the ice,pushed by attractive lassies in pink fur-trimmed costumes. After amusing the audience with their antics, they leave, and a skater in Russian costume follows. Then appears the well known family of Peter 'Rabbit, right in Mrs. McGregor's victory garden as usual. The antics performed by these lovable bunnies are enough to endear them to anyone's heart. Next came modernized nursery rhymes, Arabian dances, and more figures skating to entertain the audience. Oh-oh, make way! Here come two wild and woolly cowboys on skates! The tumbles, slides, and spills that follow almost put the audience in stitches, for the MCKellen brothers are enter- taining, and what they won't do for a laugh isn't worthdo- ing. It surely is amusing to see one of them suddenly rush out into the audience and start kissing some lady! ' The lovely swift-moving swing waltz which follows has been and will always be one of the hits of any ice show. The scene is next shifted to an indian village for a triv hal ceremony and dance. After this a masquerade dance, holds the spotlight. lt's Sunday-Go-To-Meeting time next, and sixteen young ladies of the 1915 era pedal by on a Sunday promenade. Sweethearts and swains strolling along lover's lane, and a policeman and a nwackyn nursemaid fur- ther enlivens the Sunday scene. , 15 FOI UES continued Spanish peasant girls and a gay Caballero present a Spanish peasant dance, and they are followed by two fanoy figure sxaters in Highland costume, Frich and Frack show the audience some really fancy timing and comedy in their Scotch act. Imagine two people skating backwards as fest as possible directly at each other and at the last fraction of a second avoiding a cub lision by veerinq off to the side! The last act is a Victory Parade, ' featuring forty beautiful girls in natty gold and white oostumes.Th1s act is well worth seeing because these girls put on a drill on skates that would put many a soldier to shame. They follow this with e rousing drum salute led by a high- stepping little drum majorette, and a grand finale, the whole cast comes out and forms a hugeHVH for victory. Jith this last bit of super-skating the follies are brought to a close, but it will be a long time before we will see an equal to a show like the Follies of 'h3. Ruth Newbury '45 T W IN DA!

There were only too gl more games planned. One of these is is to be played in our gym. y ,ll The outlook for the l9l+3 baseball season is not too bright. It is much more difficult to transport a baseball team, for at least two cars are needed, whereas a basket- ball team could easily be taken in one. The problem is further complicated by the fact that many schools nearly the size of our own are at a considerable distance from Petersham. Northfield, Belchertown, and Brookfield are much too far to reachg Hardwick, New Salem and Templeton are much closer but still rather inaccessible. The only close towns which are easy to reach are Barre and Athcl. Both of these schools are much Larger than our own, but if competition nearer our own size is not obtainable, most of the students would be willing to play larger ones. It has been said, not without truth, that there is more satisfacw tion in playing a much better team than in beating a much weaker one. It is the cherished hope of all the students that the baseball season will not be allowed to pass with- out a few baseball games. Perhaps, if a high school team is not possible, an independent team may be organized as was done with basketball. At any rate, time alone will tell. George Barnes 'LB GIRLS' SPORTS This year the girls' basketball team was unable to participate in the games with the teams of surrounding towns. As in everything the gasoline rationing put an end to basketball trips. Their games in the gymnasium have been very exciting even though they were not able to play Templetom Hardwick, New Salem or other towns. I am sure there is one thing that almost every one of the girls will remember, and that is the marks and scratches they have received during bas- ketball games. Although they probably would have receiv- ed considcrably more bruises from out of town teams, they must admit that theirs were received from their own par- ticipants. ' Under the leadership of Miss Hartley, the girls chose a team and played among themselves in the gymnasium during noon hours and recesses. This at least brought the atmos- phere of basketball around. In the full, the grammar and high school girls took particular interest in playing volleyball and softball. They played only a short time, however, for the weather soon drove them indoors. This spring the girls plan to have a ping pong set put in the Assembly Hall and a recreation field in the back of the school for tennis. Even though basketball was rationcd, we all hope the girls will get plenty of exerdse and physical training out of doors. Barbara Lawson 'L3 5 .

For, no other oppor MPLETON ad to Baldwinsville Friday, January 22, he might have beheld a tunities presenting themselves, the enthusiastic Petersham Independents, better known as the Peterslan Boys' Club, hired a horse lpoor thing? and a sleigh.

Soon, however, the poor horse realized what he was in for and made up his mind to go back. It was then only the skill of the drivers that kept us all from going home. At about nine-fifteen a half-frozen, weary bunch of fellows dragged into the opponents' gymnasium. They had hardly shown us the basket we were to shoot for when they called the game to begin. It was terrible to see how they had taken advantage of us, for our players couldn't hang half-frozen hands. To make matters their captain in the second quarter, You may already have guessed by out, but just in ease you haven't , I the bag.

The Tigers started out fast by getting two baskets in close succession. The reason for that, however, was undoubtedly that the Petersham boys hadn't got warmed up as yet. Soon, however, the ice was broken when Petersham scored a basket. This seemed to give the term added hope, for at the end of the half Petersham was in the lead, l2- ll! Immediately after the game had begun for the secorid half, the NTigersN scored another two points, putting dem in the lead again, but we retalliated and went ahead by one point! immediately they scored another basket, -put- Qtngthem ahead one point! By this time we decided T the game was getting too close for comfort, so we put on the pressure by scoring three baskets in quick SuCCvSSiOH.FKIl that point on to the end of the game Petersham kept the lead and finished ten points ahead.

Whether or not the yelling did any good is .5 ques- tion, but their boys shot more baskets, to down the HHor- netsw to the tune of Qu-23. Although Petersham finished one point in the . lead, the score was so close throughout the game that each time Petersham scored a basket, Barre had to get on their toes to keep in the lead. 36 The Petersham Boys'Club proved too strong Wgoing down the stretchn, sinking several baskets in rapid SUCCSSSiOI1 to clinch the battle.

But by the time the second half rolled around, silence followed every basket, except for an occasional Hwhy doh't you give 'em a chance?N Consequently, after that it seemed a shame to sink one. The only time they'd cheer was when Templeton made a basket, so we let them sink a few. When we decided they had enough Ute go home env, we took the ball away again and finished the game fifty points ahead. PETERSHAWIVSBARRE On that drizzly, wet night of March l2, the Boys'Club traveled to Hnmirdstoito play a return game with Barre. We had already beaten them once, but on their flpgr we were afraid to move for fear we would fall flat. CThe reason was that they use it for a dance floor, and they hadn't swept it since the last dance., Consequently, it was a slow uneventful, clean game fexcept when we oazasimv ally Wsank onenl. Our adversaries, having the advantage of height and having practiced and played on that floor several times, downed us with considerable ease to the tune of L3-30. I can't say it was so easy for one fellow though. He was under the basket when he received the ball. He pivoun to shoot, but the ball never came near the basket! when I looked at him again, he was flat on his back. Even though we didn't win the game, we were more often perpendicular to the floor than parallel, as they often were. 75553. . 5.- 'X v H.. P r -'11 1 K. K 'L-1. Z'-nj -sn X- !
