The candidate must possess the following four qualities of character to an outstanding degree-dependability, service, leadership, and patriotism. This honor has been awarded to Dorothy Morton, who, ever since she entered Plymouth High School, has shown her classmates and teachers that she is worthy of the title. In her sophomore year she was pres- ident of her home room, served on com- mittees for the Double L Dance and Sophomore Dance, and participated in the P. H. S.-Capades. While a junior, Dorothy was a member of the refresh- Page 8 A lm Junior Promenade, later serving as an ush-er at the Graduation Exercises and Senior Reception. This year, as a senior, she has taken active part in the sale of tuberculosis seals, worked on the com- mittee for the Senior Dance, been a Council Representative in the Student Activities Society, and pianist for the operetta Martha sponsored by the Society. During her three years in high school she has also played the piano at assemblies, been literary editor for the school annual, and participated in bas- ketball, badminton, hockey, and bowl- ing. Always dependable, always a good leader, she was our natural choice for this honor. The entire school supports the selection of Dorothy Morton as the best girl citizen of the Class of 1941. RUTH BOUTIN '41 N0 record bere oftbings ibejfoe done, W e only seek to fmve some zm. ALYCE AGOSTINHO Though Alyce is a jolly girl, Her temper is quick to flare, Please be careful what you say- Or you'll wish that you weren't there. ARTHUR AMARAL Want a poem recited? Someone to sing or cheer? For any of these duties Arthur will volunteer. DORIS ANTI She thought she was more than pleasingly plump, So she went upon a diet: Now that the result has been observed, There are others who would try it. DOROTHY BAGNI Her lightest word would be our law With a new technique, If she'd have her way with us, She must let her 'cello speak. PAULINE BARENGO Posters there, posters here! She made them throughout all the year: In fact, her fingers flew so fast They triumphed o'er her tongue at last. STANLEY BARNES Don't be disarmed By his gentle smile: He can do battle If he thinks it worth while. CAROLINE BARUFADDI Knowing she could not have wings, She considered many. things- Then fastened on her roller skates To win hands down o'er her classmates. HARRIET BASSETT She's forever busy From eight o'clock to one, Ask from her a favor- And it's as good as done. IDORE BENATI If someone versatile you'd meet, In studies bright, in football fleet, Just send for Mac , he's hard to beat. ADELINO BERNARDO First he pauses, then he shoots From the middle of the floor: He's made another basket To bolster up our score. DORIS BERNARDONI There'll be shadow and sun for everyone As the years roll by, But she'll meet whate'er may come With her head held high. RAYMOND BIBEAU In school you rarely hear him, He's the quiete-st of boys, But wait until he gets out- side- Then harken to the noise. Page 9 RUTH BOUTIN She studies in the morning, She studies through the night- Even if she tried to miss, Shc'd answer questions right. EVELYN BOYLE Hazel eyes And auburn hair Conspire to make A lady fair. ROSA BRADLEY The price of time and patience She will gladly pay Because she can be satisfied With nothing less than A. MARGARET BRENNER On the charge that she can't sew. The modern girl's indicted: To show the falsity of this Margaret's herewith cited. EVON BRIGGS She may not be in Hollywood, But our Oscar she has won For the nicest disposition In the Class of '41. PETER BRIGIDA At the game in Randolph No one of us grieved When some fourteen points Our Peter achieved. Page 10 fl 'ur VITO BRIGIDA The best time in all the year? Winter is his season- Not that he's so rugged, Basketball's the reason. ERRINGTON BROWN Brownie's full of mischief In and out of school. But Lend a hand to others Has always been his rule. LORNA BUGELY She has need of a strong right arm, Not that she would fight- It must support the pile of books That she carries home each night. ALLAN BURGESS Chemistry or physics He simply can't resist: Can it be we harbor An embryo scientist? BARBARA BURT She'll cool your fever, Soothe your brow- That is, she will When she's learned how. CHARLES BUTTERFIELD Judging Charles by what he says. And we're not sure we can, The fairer sex must mend its ways- Or he'll live a single man. -Z GEORGE CARTER If you desire a fine oration Delivered with exuberation We have some inside informa- tion: George excels in declamation. BENVINDA CARVALHO Benny is industrious: When school is over, then She hustles oH' to go to work In the Five and Ten. WILBERT CINGOLANI If ever you see Willie Looking very blue, It's safe to bet the New York Yanks Have lost a game or two. CLARENCE CLEVELAND Though Clarence towers above us all, He's not the one to spurn the call Of friend in trouble or de- spair- Whenc'er we need him, Cleevy's there. FLORENCE CORNISH Phe came from Arizona To our stern and rock-bound coast: We hope that here she'll find wha.te'er In life she prizes most. HELEN CORREA If the1'e are more patient girls, We haven't met them yet- As staff tvpist on The Pilgrim She has placed us in her debt. WALTER CORROW Service brings its own re- ward, The copy books proclaim: And if there's one boy who should know, Corrow is his name. TONY COSTA He plays third trumpet In Morgardo's Band: When he does a solo, He gets a good hand. ARTH UR COTTI Brcaches in friendship He can prevent By using his father's Famous cement. MARY CREATI A penalty that's often paid By clever girls like you Is that others tend to give You far too much to do. PAMELA DAMMENT Columbus found America In fourteen ninety-twog We're very glad he did this So that we could welcome you. THELMA DASSMAN We would pay tribute 'T'o earnest endeavor- She has worked faithfully, Faltering never. Page 11 TERESA DE TRANI Teresa, we have found you An artist through and through, You've served us in so many ways We've only praise for you. MINOT DEVITT Ile keeps his own counsel, IIe goes his own way Doing what must be done Faithfully each day. RICHARD DiS'1'EFANO You play the piano With such little ado Tt's well there are studies To challenge you. ANNE DONOVAN We've been led astray BV what neople say: She has the red hair But bad temper's not there- We've been led astray. GEORGE DOTEN We know that Latin IV you took, Your excellence we couldn't brook Until at last we solved the riddle- Your old friend, Nero, played the fiddle. PATRICE DOWD Yesterday we knew the knight Who wore her token on his shield- But nov' that a few hours have nassed, He's vanquished from the field. Page 12 FRANCES DRETLER We think it matters little Whether you're short or tall, When your stature is not great, You don't have far to fall. ROBERT DREW His interest in the feminine Now extends to ships It's possible that l'he Sha- dow Will the rest eclipse. CHARLES DUNHAM Not on Burns and Allen, Not on Bergen's son- We depend on one of our own For the laughs in '41, ARTHUR DUPUIS You said it took real energy To keep up with '41- We're glad you didn't leave us Before the race was run. PASQUALINA FARINA Quiet of manner, Quiet of speech- Ready to learn all The textbooks can teach. AGNES FERNANDES If she guarded her tongue Like her man in a game. We'd have it more quiet, We hereby proclaim. .IAMES FERREIRA We've looked at him from time to time And prayed hard-for we feared We'd see him some fine morn- ing Wearing a full beard. PAULINE FREYERMUTH We wonder what's in King- ston That each night draws her there, It couldn't be the ball game, So it must be a ballplayer. HAROLD GALLERANI So tight he kept his lips com- pressed Scarce any words came through, Sorry, Harold, our 1nistake- These lines are not for you. ELEANOR GARDNER She can't understand girls Who're languid in gym, To her it's the one place To get excited in. JOAN GARDNER She can wield a stick Or toss a ball, Then write a column About it all. EDMUND G-IANFERRARI That he has a nose for news No one of us can doubt: In Mrs. Raymond's News Tests He puts us all to rout. .3 .t PAULINE GILBERT Last June at Commencement Pauline lost a friend, But the loss proved one of those The passing of time could mend. JOSEPH GIOVANETTI His whistle and chatter In Room 303 Are wont to disturb Our serenity. 'I LOUIS GIOVANETTI Louis plays his trumpet well, His orchestra leads with zeal- If you're in a dancing mood, His music will appeal. ARGEA GUIDETTI While some girls forego sun- daes For fear of gaining weight, This is at least one sacrifice She need not contemplate. MARYLEW HAIRE We harbor the suspicion That she's not always quiet, But we cannot picture her As leader in a riot. ELENORE HALL Tinkle! Tinklel hear them fall Gently as the rain- In Mrs. Raymond's English class She picks up pearls again. Page 13 JOHN HAMMER If you but hesitate, y,ou're lost When Johnnie Hammer you accost, To beat him to the door we've tried- But John is speed personiti-ed. BOYD HAYWARD He seems to like our companyg But when all is said and done, If he had to make a choice, We'd lose to dog and gun. VIRGINIA HOKINSON Obese we fear She'll never be- Though she eats Sweets constantly. BETTY HOWLAND Betty always bustles in At one minute before eight: She's hardly ever early, Still--almost never late. MARY IANDOLI We know what your ambition is, May you reach your goal: Another Nightingale you'd be, Revered from pole to pole. ANNA JESSE First the squeal, Then a wriggle: Knowing Anna, We wait for the giggle. Page 14 FRANCES JOHNSON She battled shamelessly with us To get these poems done: But before you lies the proof That her tactics won. ELEANOR JOY This girl has A favorite song- She warbles Sylvia All day long. SYLVIA KEEVEY From her no hysterical giggle, No piteous moan or groan- Such exhibitionism She will not condone. MERCY KELLEN If on Major Bowes' hour You should sing a song, With that lovely voice of yours You'd never get the gong. FRANCES KIERSTEAD In truth it can be said of her She works as hard as she plays- We're conscious of her pres- ence In numerous pleasant ways. HARRIETTE KLASKY No one could dress hurriedly And look so very right, She must plan what clothes she'll wear Before she rests at night. BARBARA KNIGHT Her heart's desire She should attain Because she tries, Then tries again. JOSEPH LAMBORGHINI You made for us a leader fine, As president you toed the line- But, if that job had not existed, As super salesman you'd be listed. WELDON La VOIE For choosing clothes and wear- ing them Weldon has a flair, He can tell you, if he will, What the well-dressed man should wear. MARTHA LEMIUS Salvos of laughter, An exchange of jokes- Beware of Martha's Vigorous pokes. BERNARD LEXNER We'd like to see you do it Just to prove it can be done, Approach the school with measured gait And not upon the run. THEODORE LODI He is no melancholy Dane- He quiet agrees with Brown- mg: At the problems of the day There is no sense in frowmng. NORMAN LONGHI He's drummer boy of '41! With a Krupa composition And all the practicing hc's done He should give competition. MILDRED LOPRESTI Teeth like gleaming pearls, Hair like raven's wings- Though the similes are trite, She has both these things. WALLACE MacLEAN He conserves his energies Until the recess bell, For then he has a thing to do That he must do well. ALFRED MARTIN The story's written on his face For all who care to read: He's glad to lend a helping hand Wherever there is need. MARY MARVELLI We've examined her by X-ray: We report that we can't find A single lazy particle In body or in mind. MARTIN MCAULEY Through our trackless corri- dors He ranges far and wide: We haven't yet seen Silver, But Bill Po's at his side. Page 15 CHRISTIAN MIRANDA When we interviewed this senior, He didn't mind confessing There's little in this life of ours That hc finds too depressing. ALVIN MONTANARI On sober second thought we feel We should have let him act As our class photographer- Wc-'ve shown a lack of tact. DOROTHY MORTON People like us appreciate A person just like you, We hereby publicly proclaim We think that you're true blue. WARREN NEAL Our Warren's not particular, But one thing makes him sad- It's when the boys forget the Brud And call him Fat l Egad! WESLEY NICKERSON She may creak and she may groan, But she condescends to start- Though she is no gay young thing, She has captured Wesley's heart. PATRICIA O'CONNELL May the years be powerless Her smile to erase: For we have found joy In her radiant face. Page 16 'T' BETTY PADLUSKY The girls all envy Her complexion: In their opinion It's perfection. LAURA PAOLETTI She dribbles down the hockey field With a look of concentration, Her name heads the Honor Roll- We admire determination. DONALD PARSONS He once was Casanova Don With Sweethearts by the scores, But then the right girl came along- And now he's scrubbing floors! ALBA PASOLINI Writing notes in study hall Is Alba's specialty: She'11 pass one any time she thinks The teacher cannot see. DEBORAH PERRY She does not choose the easy way, . Let the weak and weary ride- To her work and back again She walks with vigorous stride. ARLENE PIRANI Christmas spirit was in the air, Christmas bells were in her hair- Since the season now is gone. Colored bows her locks adorn. WILLIAM PO He has Z1 repertoire of jokes The glum heart to delight, He is just the person To make a dark day bright. MARY QUINLAN We don't think our Mary con- trary: In fact, she always has been Very willing to tell us the news- And it costs us never a pin. MARIAN RADCLIFFE When the girls stroll out for hockey, You're always with the rest- You surprised your coach and team-mates, You rate-one of the best. DOROTHY RAYMOND You can wield a pen or pencil And produce a likeness true, The ease with which you do it Makes ns envious of you. EDNA RAYMOND O Plymouth girls, How we do sing And praise the work Of' our right wing ! NANCY REAGAN A tisket. a tasket She made another basket, When Nancy wears that naive grin, We expect again to win. CLAIRE REED Though you search the class from A to Z, We think you won't find one Who'll stick more closely to a task Until it is well done. EDWARD RIBEIRO We've seen him in the class- room, We've seen him on the street- And from our observations His style is hard to beat. NAOMI RICHMAN Naomi, be still For once and for all - This sounds familiar In our study hall. LEE ROANE He helps prepare his class- mates For a detail test By asking all the questions He thinks will serve them best. STANLEY ROBERTS Stan's an unassuming chap Who studies hard, 'tis true, But with that sober air there is A touch of humor, too. BLANCHE ROBY We've lived through many changes In our high school days, But the brightness of her smile Has been with us always. Page 17 ARDELE ROGERS When her children go to school And laugh and shout and sing, We only hope she won't forget She did the selfsame thing. FRANCES ROSSETTI Be bright and cheerful, That's her creed- Live up to her motto If you would succeed. PATRICIA SAMPSON When a poet speaks of wom- an's hair As her crowning glory, I-Ie can have but one in mind As the subject of his story. ELIZABETH SANDERSON Betty, you think, is very shy Until you know her well- Then you'll find she's lots of fun As all her friends can tell. LOUIS SCALABRONI Wrangler bought a Pontiac, His one and only love- Don't you dare to touch that car If you haven't on a glove. ALICE SEARS Some think her sedate, But we wouldn't know why- For she has a greeting For each passerby. Page 18 BARBARA SHAW Rushing here, dashing there, Through the corridors she'Il tear- Wait a minute! This won't fit! Barbara's just the opposite. CURTIS SHAW The leopard may not change his spots But he does something like it- To recognize this boy at 1:00 The observer must be psychic. FLORENCE SHAW She takes time to be pleasant. And that pays dividends- For now she's added all of us To her host of friends. JOHN SHAW On the absentee sheet We predict without fear At least once a week His name will appear. GEORGE SHEA Our faith in him is justified: We thought he had the power To part us from our money Without our feeling dour. MARIE SHIMMELBUSH Sha? a fugitive from History It's hot upon her trail, The thought of being captured Makes Marie turn pale. EDITH SKULSKY When school is done, For home 'she'll run To don her slacks- She must relax. BERNIOE SMITH We seldom see her talking, She seems to us most shy- She concentrates on other things: Report cards do not lie. ESTHER SMITH She's simple and sweet And tr6s, tres petiteg To her Stewart's acting Is life's greatest treat. MARY SMITH Her vigilance is eternal, Her eye is keen and clear- While she's serving as libra- rian, N0 book will disappear. DOROTHY SOUZA Seated each day at her type- writer, She merrily taps the keys And accomplishes her purpose With comparative grace and ease. FRANCIS STAS All that you do We may not condone, But we have only praise When you play the trombone. AUGUSTA STEFANI She thinks more of landscapes Than many seniors do, In fait, she stands on Prospect Hil Just to enjoy the view. DEAN STEVENS We cover our eyes So we don't have to look At Dean in an apron Ready to cook. HAROLD STRASSENL In basketball, football, And baseball, too, The honor of good sport Goes straight to you. DONALD STUDLEY To our success at sleuthing We do not point with pride, For he must have at least one fault That cannot be denied. BARBARA SULLIVAN Riotous colors in sweaters Make her senses reel- For her only the pastels Have the least appeal. LAURA SYLVIA We'll lift the lid on one thing And let you take a peek: If you would meet a charming miss, You need no further seek. Page 19 ELEANOR TASSINARI She bowled a score of ninety, And sighed with great relief- The second string was lower, Her victory was brief. ALICE TAVERNELLI Very politely we asked her to sing- Practiee Makes Perfect was our first choice: Very politely Alice replied, I subscribe to the title-but haven't the voice. RICHARD TOUPIN The Carver road Needs much repair: But even the old one Will get you there. EDWARD TRAVERS He has a sense of humor rare, Of that we're very well a- ware- Don't think his hearty laughs are bold, A very funny joke's been told. ROSE VALENZIANO When she really hits her stride, She can talk at such a rate We feel the need of a machine Her speed to calculate. LEONA VANNAH We can safely Trust her tongue: In the middle It is not hung. Page 20 MARTHA VICKERY The Muse of Poetry and Song Might well have been her nurse: Today she can provide us With music or with verse. WILLIAM VICKERY Time after time We knock them down, But you set them up Without a frown. BARBARA VIETS Stockings and sweaters So quickly go! Barbie's a knit-witp That we all know! SHIRLEY WEEDEN At a game or movie She has a stature such That, unlike her midget sisters, She's not bothered much.

I I 'fn l c g THE PRINCIPAL SPEAKS IN this space last year I wrote about courage, the quality which guaran- tees other traits of character, the quality with-out which other traits, no matter how admirable in themselves, may be- come mere parodies of themselves. Let me repeat what I said then that you may understand more cl-early what I have in mind. Without courage tact may be no more than cowardiceg forbearance, weakness, generosity, a covert form of bribery. Andi strength without courage may become mere contemptible bully- ing. The happenings of the past year have underscored those words in such a way that I want to write for this graduating class about another quality so closely related to courage that it is difficult to distinguish the one from the other. In some respects this quality may be considered the very heart of courage itself. It is difficult to conceive of cour- age Cexcept as physical braveryb with- out assuming the existence of this other qu-ality as a prerequisite. However, to separate this quality from courage feven if it can be done satisfactorilyj is not necessary to an understanding of its importance or an appreciation of its fundamental worth in the human make- up. After all, it may be the twin of courage, the other face of courage. I speak of self-reliance. Self-reliance emphasizes the alone- ness underlying all human existence. Bound as we are by ties of family, affection, and loyalty to so many of our fellow-beings, yet, ultimately, in all the great crises of our lives, we must be ready to act alone. This is not to say that these ties should in any respect be bellittled. They are the great comforts, th-e supports which all men seek 9 but they come from without, and character is built from within. When a man makes a decision, that decision must be his- else it is no decision at allg it is no more than a concealed wavering hiding be- hind the advice and decisions of others, a masquerade. And that leads to the abnegvation of all traits that go to make sound character, for it is the den-ial of a man's responsibility to himself for his own acts. Consider Greece, as last year we con- sidered Finland. Faced by a well-armed and well-equipped aggressor, remote from help, poor in natural resources, she might well have temporized as have her neighbors to the north, and called that course one of prudence, caution, necessity. Fine words can be found to camouflage this kind of spineless sur- render. But this ancient people remem- Continued on page 39 Page 23 .5 fn 5 nf- X, A , ' or gf? '1- ng, ll..

To the westward scarcely a mile away, the high, rounded outline of an island stood silhouetted in the rays of the setting sun. The white strip of beach shadowed by a fringe o-f tall palms that lined the shore, the dark green of bushes that ran to the top of a steep hill, the surf breaking on the reef that surrounded SeXton's Bay were plainly visible. Clint Davis squatted on the deck, his back against the cabin side, splicing a rope with a marlinspike dangling from his wrist. He glanced ahead as his vessel approached the bay. The tide was still flooding, coming in strong. Astern. a thick 'bank of thunderheads was piling up in the east. There would be a squall on the turn of the tide to- night, he was certain. It was dangerous for a sailing vessel to be caught in the narrow reaches of Sexton's Pass by a sudden squall. It had been several years since his last visit here. He glanced toward the top of Sexton's Hill. It seemed as though a small space on the crest had been cleared of bushes. He gazed in- tently at the bald spot above. He fancied he saw a figure move up there, but, before he could make sure, the movement of the boaxt brought a clump of palms between him and the hilltop. The man aft was steering. He stood up. the better to see ahead, pulling his hat down to shade his eyes. A heavy hand was needed no-w. If a ship struck on the edge of fthe pass, it wouldmft last long. The Pindar crossed the bar. Down the center of the channel the white schooner rolled and swung while the blue-green rocks showed albove the surface less than a cable s length away. The channel turned to the right and The Pindar followed the blue water of the passage. The little basin, entered through the narrow cut, was secure haven even during a hurricane. The schooner cleared the entrance. and swung up to fthe no-rth. The sails flut- tered as the wind left them, and -the crew of three ably took them in. Clint Davis quickly tucked his knife back into the sheath on his belrt. His eyes streaked along the cliff a foot above the surface of the Walter. The high tide mark showed plainly. He raised his head above the level of the cabintop. In the little gap between the main -boom he saw it. A long, black hull was moored right in the center of the pond, a black sinister shape, low lying, with the slim muzzle of a gun. pointed directly at them. Behind that gun stood two men. At the sight Clinlt Davis crouched and sprang overboard. The water closed over him, cutting off his yell of warning. So quickly ha-d he moved that the iron marlinspike was still fastened around his waist. His crew was frozen to immovabillity. There came a loud, earspliting craslh and The Pindar dis- integrated in the din which followed. The explosion of the tive-inch shell was so terrific th-at the dory trailing astern flew up into the air and burst into splinters before it hit the water. Clinft Davis was deep under water when the concussion occurred, and it drove the air from his lungs. He came up fast, caught his breath, and instinc- tively dived again as pieces of plank, rope, and timber showered the spot he had just left. He swam underwater to the beach opposite the position of the submarine. The long shadows of the setting sun slowly spread over the pond. With the sunset the wind died down. A hush fell, broken only by the low murmur from out on the reef. Clinxt Davis watched a small boat with half a dozen men in it put out from the island. He hefted the marlinspike Page 31 and felt his sheath knife. If they found him, he'd put up a good fight. Evidently the crew in the small boat was convinc- ed that there were no survivors, for they went back to shore. Clint tried to understand this thing that had come upon him so suddenly. The lookout on the bared hilltop had seen them entering the bay and had been ready for them. This must be a secret submarine base where the raiders went ashore to rest between attacks. They could not have found a better hideout. The hilltop formed an excellent lookout. They used swifit annihilation to keep their hideout a secret. Dead men tell no tales, he shuddered. Davis worked his way up from under the rocks. The damp, cool scent of rain was -in the ar. On the other side of the pond in the light of a campfire he could see shadows of many men. A thin drizzle started to fall. He might be able to slip along the shore and escape in the small boat. But then he remembered his crew and his fine schooner at the bottom of Sexton's Bay. A cold rage swept over him. They had sunk his ship without warning and with- out giving anyone a fighting chance. He must if ossible rid these waters 9 p 1 of the black, sinister shape. But how? On board their vessel the raider-s were supreme, but in Sex:ton's Pond Clinrt Davis was in his own environ- ment. He was swimming with scarcely a ripple to betray his progress, swim- ming out to the spot where the black shadow lay over the gray surface of the water. Even while he floated alongside, the rain had become a heavy downpour. Cautiously he worked his Way along. Amidships near the conning tower he discerned the blurred figure of the watchman huddled against the tower. As silently as the fall of a feather, he was upon the d-eck and no more than four feet from the figure. His arm swung in a swifft. short airc and the marlinspike landed on the man's skull with a sickening thud. He slid silently into the water. That one would give him no trouble. He felt for the anchor chain and slid down it until he came to the bottom. For a whole two minutes he worked on the shackle which held the last link to the huge anchor. Using his knife, he pried out the shackle pin and the anchor was loose. He floated upward. Page 32 When he reached the top, he found the tide turning and the submarine drifting out the passage! Tideborne, faster and faster it moved, dragging its useless anchor chain over the white coral on the bottom. He swam ashore and hid in the bushes close to the camp- fire. A rifle shot barked from the hilltop, and the men around the fire ran up to discover that they were stranded and their only means of escape was rapidly drifting toward the jagged reef. A grim smile of satisfaction crossed Clinrt Davis' face. The submarine had struck the reef at high water. Each tide would come lower and lower from now on. The reef held the vessel in its grip, and the monstrous waves were pounding it furiously. Eaoh surge was lifting it higher upon the rocks. The rock formation opened large gaps in her bottom. He stole the dinghy from beside the campfire and was far from land before he was discovered. He sat down on the stern of the little boat and listened to th-e steady, dull roar of the reef as each mighty wave rose and fell upon the quiet of the night. He could hear still another sound beat above the roar of the sea-the sound of steel against the jagged rocks of the reef. They had destroyed his ship. The score was even. Their ves-sel was on the reef to stay. Clint Davis began to row. It was a long stretch to the settlement and the wireless station nearest Sexton's Bay. MARTIN MCAULEY '41 WHAT PRICE LIBERTY? Ye who sit by the fireside, Come on a trip with me- A thoughtful trip, A mournful trip, A trip far over the sea. Ye who sit by the fireside, Pause a moment to hear The booming guns, The chattering guns, The guns of death and fear. Ye who sit by the fireside, Close your eves and see The flowing blood. The crimson blood. The blood of you or me. Ye who sit by the Hreside, Feel in your hearts with me The deepening love, The lasting love, The love of liberty.

Pauline Freyermuth '41 Page 3 --M M y ,i ll lllr boyz, ll 11' ltr ,il M VIEWPUIHTS THE KIDDIES' HOUR Between the dark and the daylight, When the light is beginning to lower, Comes a pause in the day's occupation Which is known as the Children's H our. IN Long'fellow's era the Children's Hour was that sixty minutes of de- lightful peace and quiet which brought parents and children together at the end of a lonig, long day. But that age, an age when parents read the time-fingered volumes of Aesop, Andersen, and Grimm to youthful, enraptured listeners, has given way to the present-day hour of parental woe. The radio, employing a death-defying, two-fisted wonder-man, now gives us a new form of grim amusement, one which could break any bond that ever existed between parent and child. If, by chance, you are not yet acquainted with the modern version of the above-mem tioned eventide festivity, let us look in on the average family at about a quarter to five. Father, weary from a hard day's toil, has just settled himself in his favorite easy-chair. Mother, too, is tiredig never- theless she's preparing supper with a smile. Junior, that little ray of sun- shine, has taken his nightly position be- fore the radio, seated on Fatlier's fa- vorite foot-stool. Why, you may ask, has the little cher- ub chosen this uncomfortable seat when the sofa is unoccupied? Soon, all too soon, you shall know the answer, for even now the clock strikes five. Father sguirms' lower into his chair and sets his teeth, mother quietly closes the door Page 84 into the kitchen, and Junior, tense with expectancy, leans toward the radio. Suddenly the scream of police sirens and the roar of gunfire herald the begin- nin-g of the Kiddies' Hour. Father, completely unnerved, leaps from his chair, and above the din shouts, Ye Gods, Mabel, do we have to endure this torture again tonight? Mother does not reply. Again father pleads and again there is no reply. Now the noise has become a bedlam and father, taking matters into his own hands, advances menacingly toward his son. The lad looks for aid in the direc- tion of the kitchen, for father, with an evil gleam in his eye, is but a few feet away. A sharp reprimand from mother halts father in his tracks and saves Junior from eating his evening meal from the mantle. Be reasonable, Mabel, father pleads. Nonsense, you were young-once, says mother. Completely disgusted, father storms from the room, dons his coat, and, cram- ming his hat over his ears. leaves for the garage where he can read in peace. Junior, apparently un-moved by the evening's happenings. listens in com- plete rapture while his hero fearlessly upholds the forces of law and order. RICHARD KEARSLEY '43 CAMERA CONVERSATION You know, Jay, we lead a h-ard life. Yes, work, work, work, and more work, always dangling on a strap around master's neck. He's always banging me around, and focussing means twistin-g my nose. Some day, Jay, I will refuse to open my eye. What makes me angry, Jack, is the way he opens my eye on a beautiful landscape and shuts it before I can absorb the beauty. Yes, an-d when I am forced to view a corpulent, homely, woman. he tor- tures me by leaving my eye open. Then she criticizes for not making a good picture! I'm not a magician! Poor me, master is always opening my head and putting in a new brain or pulling out a used one. Ah, Jack, but with a color brain, beautiful sc-enery, and a pretty girl- that is a diffefent matter! Right you are, Jay. Even a camera has its big moments! ROBERT GovoNI '43 WAITING WHY doesn't that teacher hurry? He's probably glad that I'm getting a deficiency slip, but I'll do better next time. Yeah, that's what I said the last time, but now I mean it! Gee, I really meant it last time, but that resolution went the way of all resolutions when pals come to call. I should have known better than to think I could make up everything in one test. Look at him! He's three rows away now! If I don't get a deficiency slip this time, I'll study two hours every night. Oh, what's the use of kidding myself? I said that the first time I was threatened with one of those unpleasant reminders, but here I am waiting for another. What shall I tell my father, a s-tickler for excellent grades? My three C's last month didn't improve our relationship at all. I'll consult some of the boys as to what I should say. No, they'1l laugh. I know what I'll do-I'll leave the slip on the hall table, for anything that I'll say will on-ly make the situation worse. I was a fool, but what's the use now? Look at those smug teacher's pets over there, the brainy boys, the ones who never have to worry. I'm every bit as intelligent as they are. No-no, I can't be, for they know when to study and I'm sitting here wishing that I had studied. Funny thing--I always know what I should have dione but never know what I should do. He's coming up the aisle now. He seems to enjoy giving out those little tokens and making little speeches. I bet he beats his wife. Four more boys. three now, two. Gosh! 'he's talking to Brown in front of me. He's standing over me now! I won't en-courage him to speak to me. No. sir! I'll look at my book and pretend I'm studying! Well, why dioesn't he put it down? Why is he prolonging the torture? Heavens! he's passed me! GLAPYS COHEN '43 FIRESIDE CONTENTM ENT Outside I hear the dashing rain Full force against the windowpaneg On such a day with fire aglow, An easy chair, a book or so, To sit and munch an apple red, And now and then to nod my head: What more is there for me to say? Content am I this rainy day. Rosa Bradley '41 ON SN EEZING HAVE you ever heard one person sneeze and then heard another re- mark, God bless you ? This expres- sion has come down through the ages. In the ancient days it was believed that the reason a woman was beautiful was because she had been born at the very moment that Venus sneezed. Socrates was careful to watch the side to which he sneezed. He believed that to sneeze to the right was good luck, and' that any proposition undertaken afterward would turn out in the .sneezer's favor. Sneczing to the left meant bad luck. There are countries today that have superstitions on sneezing. In Germany, for a married man to wake up and sneeze means that he will be bossed by his wife for one week. This can be warded off by going back to bed and staying there for three hours. If a person sn-eezes in Scotland, he is not an idiot because the Scots be-lieve that an idiot does not have the power to sneeze. Sneezing at a Hindu sacra- mental rite means that the ceremony has to be begun over again. The Chinese believe that it is bad luck to sneeze on a Chinese New Year. In Japan, the number of times one sneezes has sig- nificance. To sneeze once means some- one is praising you, to sneeze twice means that an enemy is slandering you, and to sneeze three times means you're getting a cold. The last is perhaps the most dependable forecast. ELSIE SALMI '42 Page 35 UDULQUE wwx' 'H A' YM nil' 4 WEE?

But before I die I have planned in my mind The things I shall want to do, To visit the places which few men have seen And learn why some things are true. The wish that is first in my mind it to find Where the rainbow touches this earth, And there I shall meet with that famed pot of gold To return to find what it's worth. My next request is an adventurous trip That takes me down under the sea, To flint? all the treasure whwh pirates have e t And carry it back home with me.

GEORGE CAN UCCI '42 Page 37 FEMALES + FIRE EVERY year there comes a time when the garden rubbish, your rubbish, and the neighbor's rubbish, which very accidentally clutters up your yard, must be disposed of by the well-known pro- cess of rapid oxidation. It is generally preferred by the fire department and the insurance company that a. man burn the rubbish, as a Woman with a long- handled rake and three or four lucifers is more -dangerous than a leaky water pipe in the cellar. Unfortunately there are many fem- inine iirebugs who have yet to learn of the delicate composition of a burning heap, and one of the chief offenders is Mrs. Twerp, my next-door neighbor. If she can find no old rubbers to be dis- posed of, she will certainly pick up a piece of old oilcloth, wfhich makes a very good substitute, especially if -an unpleas- ant odor is desired. There is, of course, nothing that emits such an offensive smell except hair, but hair being rare in backyards, we must acknowledge that a piece of old oilcloth about three feet or more in length, subjected to a. slow flame, can -be detected by the most ordinary nose even at a distance of four gardens away. What rubbish Mrs. Twerp does ac- cumulate in one corner of her cabbage patch scarcely compensates for the dam- age to herself, the rake, and Oscar Blurp, the lone spectator who waits too long before taking a flying leap over the fence. 4 The star performance occurs when her skirt gets entangled in the garden implement. Provoked and disgusted, Mrs. Twerp then leaves her cabbage patdh and accumulation of waste and goes into the house, depositing the rake at the foot of the back stairs with teeth upward. WILLIAM DERN '43 WORK We have not known you as we ought, Nor learned your wealth and health and pow'r. The easier way has been our thought, While waning was our youthful hour. We have not tried you as we ought, But left our duties just half-done: We've feebly struggled, feebly fought For chances lost or barely won. When we shall know you as we ought, lOh! Urge our zeal, and force our might!! When we've your presence warmly sought, Then we may toil and serve aright. Martha Vickery '41 Page 38 LEND ME YOUR EARS! A PEARL fell in love with a trumpet and this is no fairy tale. They may be seen as often as you please strolling on the third fioor at recess time. Griswol-d and Fuller discovered that it was to their best advantage to hunt after school hours. If you play hookey, you are obliged to sit patiently in your home room after 1:05 until your time is made up. Just to prove that crime doesn't pay, ask Donald or Fred what they bagged on their respective hunting trips. Oh, how I hate to get up in the morn- ing! is the wail of a good'-looking chap in 201. He ought to be called Hair- 'breadth Harry instead of Joseph be- cause of his frequent breathtaking dashes across the room to avoid being marked late. We have a strong suspicion that some of the boys in Plymouth are slipping badly. Eddie, a junior from Carver, is carelessly, or we should say casually, tampering with the hearts of many a young maiden. Everyone knows Kiyi , but very few persons were aware of the unfortunate plight he was in a few months ago. When Old Man Winter rounded the corner this year, Robert's family gave him .strict orders that he either raise his marks or raise his iceboat on jacks. When Teddy Martin came back to school after his enforced absence, a cer- tain girl in the front row of 201 seemed very anxious to offer Ted help in mak- ing up his work or anything else that he was a little behind on. Flossie has at last shed her long pigtails. Although this may have been a sacrifice, the result is extremely satis- factory. If ever any of the class of '42 gets into difficulty with the law during the next ten years, we need have no fear. We have in our midst William Gault, future chief of police, and George Canucci, destined to be a judge, so how can we lose? Mr. Bagnall believes very strongly that Mr. S'miley's pickled cats have stolen the tongues of quite a few of his junior history students. Could this be the reason for their failure to recite in class? Beware, girls of Plymouth High! Those two roadside Romeos are on the loose again. These affectionate bad men are known to us as Sheik Pickard and Handsome Hayward. Who says that there's no such thing as oomph ? If Agnes and Muriel haven't a couple of miles of the stuff, the boys would like to know what to name their bewitching-er-ah-smile. Hatton, or Beau Brummel, has been seen, to the dismay of not a few towns- people, rubbing fenders with strange cars. This unavoidable weakness of Al's is greatly decreasing the trade-in value of his father's Studebaker. Boudrot certainly has us bafiied! This column is confined to comments about juniors, but we are at our wit's end to discover whether Bernard is a junior, sophomore, or senior. Even Bernie him- self doesn't know. Ladies, please don't let Mitchell's sta- ture discourage or deceive you. He's ir- resistibly sweet and not at all shy about sitting in your lap. If you have not been mentioned in this column, don't feel slighted. You're either such a good junior that we can find no flaw in you-or your escapades are un- printable. RICHARD GAvoNE '42 THE PRINCIPAL SPEAKS Conlinued from page 23 bered its days of glory, and chose to resist aggression because it is man's right and duty to defend his freedom. Her men, poorly arm-ed and ill-supplied, met the invader without waiting for assistance from outside to come to them. They made their decision and acted up- on it, and, though help has come to them since, the glory of their resistance is that they made it themselves, they re- lied upon their own strength. Success in a military sense has so far crowned their effortsg they have pushed back the invadler and have penetrated his territory. But ominous doings in the Balkans foreshadow the day of disaster when valiant Greece may have to feel the heel of the conqueror. May that day never come, but, should it come, posterity will say of this Greek nation what history tells us was graven in the rocky walls of Thermopylae over the bodies of Leonidas and his Spartans: Stranger, go tell our people that we lie here in obedience to their laws. Now, we are their people as are all liberty-loving, self-reliant men, and the laws- are those of decent right-conduct expected of all citizens in a free nation. May we, with their example before us, be as steadily and sturdily self-reliant in our defense of all that is right. EDGAR J. MONGAN TOO MUCH GOING ON There's too much. going on. of onee In this old -world of ours- So many things for ns to do In few and fleeting hours. We hone no time to nredilote, We make plans as we go, And what we'll do week after nexf We never, newer know. A hair-do here, then movies there, And dinner' is of six, And we must be on time for all- This living hos its fr'if-ks.

JEANETTE FRANKS '42 THE IRON MONSTER I, by rights should be in bed. Ere I rest my weary head, Iron Monster must be fed. Down two Hights of stairs I go, Ducking rafters that are low, Kicking railings with my toe. There he sits before my eyes, Glutton of gargantuan size, Empty, not to my surprise. Here, he roars in rasping tone, Here I sit and hungry groan.- Feed me here upon my throne! Shovel, shovel, dust and trouble, Bended back that's almost double With my labor midst the rubble. Iron Monsterfgod of greed, I'll no more to cellar speed, On crude oil you now must feed. Walter Corrow '41 Page 39 RULER OF THE SEA Sweeping ever onward With thunderous, furious roar, Mountains of frothy madness Crash on the wreck-strewn shore. Until Father Neptune Deigns to calm the raging deep, These crushing monsters will continue To pit their cunning and strength Against the courageous men Who have fearlessly striven To conquer the bitter, mysterious sea. EDWARD PENN '43 jnuilalion HOPE REKINDLED With cheerless heart I watched the sun As it came up to greet the day, And the shadows of the night just passed Lingered a while, then blew away. Then all the birds began to sing, And all the flowers burst into bloom, And heaven smiled at her handiwork- There was no place for tears and gloom. And as I stood alone and sad, A ray of hope gleamed from the sod: My heart leaped up! I caught the gleam- Then raised my head and thanked the Lord. MARY Csrozuccs '43 THE MESSENGER On a fence post Chirping Sits a robin Pert and happy- Bubbling With his secret Of coming spring. MIST NORMA JOHNSON '43 The mist is like a silvery veil Dropped o'er steeple tops Where it hovers, floating languuily- Then gradually, it fades away As if a hand were reaching down To gently lift it up. M EDI TA Tl ON These things would I hold to be, Above all else, most dear to me: Pussy willows-silky, silver-gray Swaying in the breeze along the woodland Wall? Walks along a forest path Rather than the fireside hearth: The pungent tang of crisp, brisk air All around me everywhere: The frosty twinkle of a star .Glistening brightly from afarg The broad expanse of virgin snow Sparkling in the moonlight glow. The peace that follows quiet sleep That has been restful, calm, and deep: These things would I hold to be, Above all else, most dear to me. SHIRLEY HANSON '43 BETTY HAM' '43 MY PLEA Never be too busy to gaze at sea-blue skies, To watch the sun stream on its way to seek lost lullabies, To mark the shadows of the dark on velvet feet creep down, To see the stars, which one by one, light streets of Heaven-town. Never be too busy to see life's flowers sweet, The kinds that bloom in gardens, and the others at our feet, The joy of books, of friends, and talk, the love of children dear- The charm of all the lovely things that now surround us here. Never be too busy to see beauty everywhere, And know that He Who loves us all has made this world most fair. MARY BONZAGNI '43 Page 40 lo limi, . TWILIGHT AT SEA The twilight hours like birds flew by As gently and as freeg Ten thousand stars were in the sky, Ten thousand on the sea- For every wave with dimpled face That leaped into the air Had caught a star in its embrace And held it, trembling, there. BARBARA STANDISH SHERMAN '43 MEMORIES Gazing into the fire I see Little flames of memory, Pleasant dreams of days gone past, Never, never meant to last- Seeds of reminiscence sown Into mem'ries dear are grown: They fill my heart with ecstasy, These little flames of memory. HELEN SHERMAN AWAKENING Roguish rain- Seeking out the backward plants, kissing them gently, Making those bashful bulbs blush into bloom. Happy sun- Caressing the new-born shoots as they Bravely poke Their tender leaves up into this land of light and life. Playful winds- Frolicking amongst the goblet tulips that hold their cupped hands toward the sky, Causing them to sway with the easy BEFORE I DIE I want to hear before I die From a host of angels in the sky Those treasured words men seek in vain, All is well-peace rules again. I want to see before I die That hallowed shrine where patriots lie, Where they who stemmed the battle's tide Now rest in state, our country's pruie. I want to know before I die Why men grow pale as years go by, And if there is a Shangri-La Beyond the last horizon far. I want to stand before I die And look the whole world in the eye, Then turn with mind and conscience clear To face my God without a fear. RICHARD KEARSLEY '43 rhythm of the ballet. BARBARA JONES '43 SOARING GULLS They glide through the air With the greatest of ease, Those daring white creatures That live by the seas. They soar to the clouds To a measureless height, Cruising among them Until out of sight. Then swerving about They pause to hover, Then plummet towards water One after another. They hit with a splash In search of their prey, Then, bobbing like corks, They drift on their way.

We packed the trimmings for next year, But still, we kept the tree just near The house. so we could all look out And see it there, quite cold, without Its branches, laden, shining bright With tinsel and a star. One night, However, after a day's storm, When the earth seemed to change its form And I looked out through the moonlight glare, I saw our tree, still standing there, Its branches once more hanging low, Redecorated by the snow. Mary Marvelli '41 NOSTALGIA While gazing from my window's height, I see the frozen harbor's shore. And high above the sandy bar, White seagulls swoop, then rise and soar. Beyond the bar the white crests rise, Made high by last night's boisterous storm, From depths of sapphire blue they roll, A magic change of hue to form. Across the brown of winter's marsh, The distant roar is borne to me- I long for summcr's bright green shades And sails, instead of icy sea! Barbara Viets '41 WIND SONGS llow often have I heard the wind When I am all alone, Puffing past my windowpane With wailing, doleful tone. It seeks out each secluded nook While blowing through the lane, And then, once I'l10I'C, around the house It whistles a refrain. Sometimes it plays a softer tune And gathers up each breeze. Then, in a muilied whisper, It vibrates through the trees. It lingers in the tall, brown grass, The bushes, and the brush- And then moves on to other haunts With a reluctant hush. How often, when I listen, I've heard the wind at play- And hoped that it would hasten To me, another day. Elenore Hall '41 Page 44 MORNING SCENE I love these frosty mornings When all the outer air Is tingling with a freshness And vim beyond compare. The cold wind in the tree-tops Proclaims the coming dawn, And sends the leaves a-rushing Across the frozen lawn. The light glows in my window, And on the pane I see Jack Frost has sketched a picture Of a silvery tree. I love these frosty mornings To see these things, and then To draw my bed-clothes closer And go to sleep again. Nancy Reagan '41 MEMORIES As I recall the many years I've risen And bathed and brushed my teeth and combed and dressed, How many years within these different schools I've tried and toiled, how many years oppressedg For all these recollections, I thank thee, Lord! Please never let me rest- Until I've reached that peace that comes In toiling for the best. Mary Creati '41 MOM ENTARY BLISS Happiness is a transient thing, A variegated balloon on a string Suspended in the air to tantalize Each soul that hopelessly tries To grasp its 'bounded ecstasy. Eventually it bursts, and we In retrospect then treasure Its momentary pleasure. Laura Paoletti '41 ON TIRELESS WINGS On tireless wings the wild bird speeds his Hight To lands which he has often sought before: On, ever on, untiring, day and night, Unceasing, ever toward that distant shore Where lies his shelter from the cold wind's roar. Stronlg. is the hope that leads him through the s ies And true the sense that guides him evermore, As on toward that alluring realm he flies Where winter is like spring, for there his haven lies.

Oui, la grande pipe, sa pipe favorite, elle avait disparu. Oil etait- elle? Sans sa pipe le vieux Prudhomme etait ruine. Cette pipe etait son amie, son compagnon de vieille-ssc. En ete et aussi en hiver il s'asseya1it et fumait sur son seuil ou a son etre, content, lancant des bouffees odoriferantes. Mais maintenant, il etait seul, il lui fallait trouver ce compagnon vibe, tout de suite ou lil devienldrait fou. Mais 'le pauvre Prudhomme n'etait pals capable de la chercher tout seul. Son rhumatisme le troubflait continuel- lement. Le bon ch-alumeau seulement etait capable de rap-e-tis-ser la peine et miaintenant il ne l'avait pas. Peut-etre le petit Dominique, son neveu, l'assiste- rait a la trouver. Ah, oui, Dominique. le petit garcon! C'etait la la reponse. Oui, Dominique etait si bon, si ofbligeant, quelquefois. M. Prudhomme s'ecria doucement d'abord, Dominique, Dominique, alors plus fort. Venez, Dominique, s'il vous p1ait. Dominique, cependant, n'est pas venu. Il faut que le pauvre vieillard aille 'le chercher. Prudhomme s est leve peniblemenft, boitant a la salle voisine. La etait Dominique. le petit, sa figure defiguree avec agonie. tissee avec stu- peur. La fumee emplfissait l'a.ir. Dans la bouche etailt la pipe archivieille. M.

Un vieil homme se promene lentement. C'est Jerome Trevant, vendeur de pain. Re- ga.rdant dans son panier, il soupire. Jerome- Ah! Quels jours tristes pour les Francais! Et quels pains mis- erables qu-e je dois vendre! Pas fait avec la farine comme aux bons Vieux jours. Mais le pain n'est pas la seule chose qui ait change avec cette domi- nation allemande. Paris a changeg tout a change. Les rues resonnent avec les bottes des Nazis. Comme ils sonrt gal- ants ces jours-ci! Offrant de porter mon panier et m'assisvtant a traverser la rue. Mais ils ne peuvent pas nous duper a nous soumettre! Nous avons trop endure de ces voleurs pour oublier facilement! Soupirant encore, le vieux venydeur de pain, sa tete baisse en meditation, traverse pres de l'Arche et marche vers le soleil couchant mourant. PATRICIA 0'CONNELL '41 A L'ECOLE EN ANGLETERRE Je vais decrire l'ecole ou j'ai pour- suivi mes etudes en Angleterre pendant trois ans. C'est une plus petite ecole que cette ecole-ci, avec seulement trois cents e-leves. Des evacuees de Londres ven- aient la pour la duree de la guerre, et une autre ecole, l'ecole William Ellis, pour les garcons de Londres, employ- aient nos batimentsfapres-mddli. Les eleves commenc-ent quand ils ont onze ou douze ans, et ils sortent quand ils ont dix-sept ou dix-huit ans, comme ici. Nous avons deux batiments: le batiment ancien s'eleve ou la mairie s'elevait au douzieme et treizieme siecles. et le batiment nouveau, qui contient les laboratoires et quelques salles de classes. La grande salle aussi est dans ce bati- m-ent, et la nous avons un p-etit service chaque matin, et aussi des spectacles de Shakespeare et toutes les fonctions de l'ecole. Nous portons un uniform-e, les filles portent une tuniqu-e bleue, une blouse blanche, et une cravate. Les garcons portent un habit bleu, des panltalons grits et une cravate. L'ete, les filles et les garcons de la sixieme forme, de dix- s-ept ans portent des chapeaux de paille, et si les filles les portent dans une autre ville Oil on ne nous connait pas, les gens nous regardent avec curiosite et nous ne l'aimons pas. Nous porrtons une jaquette rayee en ste aussi. Il y a quatre ma1isons a l'eco1e qui sont nommees apres les saints protec- teurs des iles brittaniques, et toutes les notes que nous obtenons pendant 1' an- n-ee sont additionnees au bout de l'annee, et la maison avec la plupart des notes gagnent un bouclier d'argent pour la duree de l'annee prochaine. Chaque maison essaie de garder ce trophee parce qu'il est le plus haut prix qu'une maison puisse obtenir. Il y a plusieurs autres tro-phees pour gagner, les gobelets pour les jeux, pour nager, pour le jeu de crosse, pour le football, pour le criquet, et deux autres pour Victor Ludo-rum et Victoria Ludorum. Ces prix sont pour le garcon et la fille qui obtiennent les me-illeures notes pour sa maison le jour des jeux. Nous avons de beaux jardins autour de I'eco1e, qui sont nommes Les Cedres , et naturellement. il y a des cedres dans le jardin. Nous avons aussi une piscine et deux jeux de paumesl. Pres de l' ecole nous avons un beau champ de jeu, et il est un des meille-urs pour plusieurs milles autour de nous. Nous sommes fieres le notre ecole et du champ.

Un jour le professe-ur a fait une faute. Maintenant il y avait dan-s cette classe un garcon qui etait tres intelli- gent mais trop timide. Il a remarque tout de suite la faute du professeur mais il etait si timide qu'il avait peur de le corriger. Il -avait dans sa poche un petit dic- tionnaire. Il l'a pris, et il a cherohe le mot que le professeur n'avait pas bien employe. Apres beaucoup d'hesitation il a leve la main. Qu'est-ce que Vous vou1ez? de- manda le professeur.

With Walter Corrow as the gentle and sincere Lionel, William Lamborghini as the uniusing and boisterous Plunket, Faith Millman as the sweet and shy Martha. Marjorie Neal as the happy Nancy, Allan Burgess as the stern Sheriff of Richmond, and Loring Belcher with his highly amusing' interpretation of the blundering Tristan, the principals proved to be well cast. Generous credit belongs to the pupils and teachers who worked on ticket sales, properties, costumes, and stage settings, but it was the fine cooperation of all con- cerned in this production which made it a finished and colorful performance.

I D ORE BENATI Vice-President .. ...ii THEODORE MARTIN Secretary ., ..,,., ........,,. ..,,., G E ORGE SHEA Purpose The purpose of the S. A. S., an orga- nization representing the entire student body of the Plymouth High School, is to encourage and coordinate activities both new an-d old within the school. Activities The S. A. S. has been particularly am- bitious this year in the numerous pro- jects it has undertaken. First, it was host to various schools in the South- eastern Branch of Associated Body of Student Councils, which met at Plym- outh High School on October 30, 1940. Mr. Stacey B. Southworth, headimaster at Thayer Academy, addr-essed the afternoon session on Pilgrims of To- day, The American Youth. During his speech, Mr. Southworth read two inter- esting and timely documents: one, a speech delivered by Hitler at Nuremberg to the children of Germany, the other, a speech by the former prime minister of England to the children of that country. At the business meeting Miss Alice G. Langford, National Secretary, related an interesting and amusing account of the journey to the Milwaukee Conven- tion. Joseph Lamborghini was chosen vice- president of the Society because the former vice-president had moved from the district. The Tantrum, a one-act comedy coached by Miss Dorris Moore, was presented by members of our Dramatic Club after th-e business meeting had been adjourned. The banking system, which was or- ganized in 1939 under the supervision of Miss Elizabeth Kelly, a member of the Commercial Department, has operated successfully throughout the year. By depositing regularly each Wednesday morning, students learn the value of thrift. The proceeds from the Operetta Martha, which, through the courtesy of the music department, was the S. A. S. mon-ey-making project for the year, were divided among the major or- ganizations of the school. As has been the custom in the past, the S. A. S. assumed resp-onsibility for the appeal for Jordan Hospital dona- tions at Thanksgiving time. Miss Mar- jorie Wilber sponsored this very suc- cessful undertaking. Page 53 This year the Christmas Seal Drive, which has been an annual adair at the Plymouth High School since 1938, was supervised by Miss Amy Rafter. Each year the total amount of money col- lected has steadily increased. This year a graph was made to show the number of seals bought by each class. Joseph Lamborghini was General Manager, assisted by three general fioor man- agers. Each home room had a represen- tative in charge of sales. Each year the S. A. S. sponsors a va- riety of assembly programs. This year Mrs. Aloha Baker, The World's Most Travelled Woman, entertained the student body with a motion picture and a travel talk about the Far East. A lively question period followed. Another pro- gram featured the Great Bruce, a magician, whose excursion into the realm of mystery entertained and mysti- fied his audience. The W. P. A. Band from Brockton played at the Washington and Lincoln assembly under the auspices of the S. A. S. The program was enthusias- tically received. The cheer leaders, under the leader- ship of Mr. Carlo Guidaboni, have been active at the football and basketball games this year. In December the S. A. S. sponsored a membership drive for the Junior Red Cross, under the supervision of Mr. Arthur Pyle. Alvin Montanari, the General Chairman, was assisted by rep- resentatives in every home room. A sufiicient amount of money was collected to enable each home room to become ll member of the Junior Red Cross.

MARY CREATI The members of this society are chosen on a class percentage basis by vote of the faculty. In February of this year twelve per cent of the Junior class were elected, while another five per cent of the Seniors become eligible in June. A student must be in the upper fourth of his class to b-e consider-ed for membership in the society, but scho- lastic standing plays only a part in the s-election of this group. A student must also be a good leader, possess a fine moral character, and participate in school activities. Memb-ership in this organization bestows the highest honor that can be given to a student in the school. Activities This year the society continued the work commenced two years ago-the maintainence of a large college cata- logue library in the high school office. The library should be of great service to those students planning to enter col- lege. Page 56 Then, too, the society has assumed the responsibility of gathering information on the activities of its former members. On March 31, April Fool's Eve, an in- formal initiation was held in Room 106 with all members present. After the newly-elected members had b-een duly' initiated into the society, refreshments w-ere served. The last three meetings of the society were of a business and social nature. The socials were in charge of three groups-the newly-elected Juniors, the Seniors, and the society officers. Once again the National Honor S0- ciety sponsored the sfnior Get-To- gethers. Music was furnished by a recording machine and also by a school- boy orchestra. The last activity of the y-ear was a picnic held in June.

The group con- sists of: sopranos-Faith Millman and Marjorie Neal 3 second sopranos-Mercy Kellen and Martha Vickeryg and altos- Helen Whiting and Doris Bergonzini. The sextet has already received several invitations, and is looking forward to a very successful year. Plymouth-October 8, 1940 The Women's Civic Association was entertained by the Girls' Sextet this evening at a meeting which was held at the Plymouth Rock House. An alumni trio consisting of Melquezideque Perry, Robert Tedeschi, and Umberto Stanghel- lini, also entertained. The program received many generous compliments. Plymouth-Any Saturday The Plymouth High School Band has been doing its part in a big way at the local foot- ball games these Satur- day afternoons. Their colorful uniforms add much to the atmos- phere of the games. For that matter, so does their music, which is under the careful leadership of Mr. John Pacheco. Plymouth-November 1 1, 1940 The sextet entertained at The Wom- en's Alliance of the First Church this afternoon. The performance was highly praised, and a very kind letter was sent to Miss Beatrice Hunt, their musical advisor. Plymouth-November 28, 1940 .The Boys' and Girls' Glee Clubs com- bined to offer music for the very impres- sive Thanksgiving pageant this after- noon in the Memorial Hall. Also parti- cipating in the affair were the Plymouth Women's Glee Club and Men's Glee Club. All music was under the direction of Miss Beatrice Hunt. Plymouth-December 18, 1940 . A very joyful and timely program was presented by the Boys' and Girls' Glee Clubs this afternoon for the enjoyment of Christ- mas shoppers. It con- sisted mainly of Christ- mas carols, but part of the program was devoted to numbers played by Mr. Page 62 John Pacheco and some members of the High School Band. Plymouth-December 20, 1940 A Christmas assembly was presented here today by the Reverend Mr. Alfred R. Hussey. After selections from Dickens' Christmas Carol , the com- bined Glee Clubs joined the student body in the singing of carols. Plymouth-February 1, 1941 The In And About Boston Music Educators' Association was entertained by the sextet at the University Club. The girls were in their usual good form, and many compliments were received from those members present.

Anna Jesse is sub- stituting for Mercy Kellen because of illness. Plymouth-February 5, 1941 The Plymouth High School Orchestra and combined Glee Clubs furnished music for the Plymouth Woman's Club Education Afternoon. Plymouth-March 5, 1941 The Plymouth High School Orchestra pre- sented a short concert for the Plymouth Woman's Club at the High School this after- noon. The orchestra played several numbers before the very amusing play, Neigh- bors by Zona Gale. To introduce the play, Melquezideque Perry played a few strain.s of Home Sweet Home. Plymouth-March 12, 1941 The sextet, accompanied by Miss Bea- trice Hunt, attended the New London Festival of Music. They left Plymouth early in the morning and arrived at their destination in the early afternoon. Most of the five days were spent in hard practice with the many other mus- ical groups which attended the festival from many towns and cities all over the United States. They also had the oppor- tunity to visit the Coast Guard Station in New London. Saturday evening, March 15, the combined groups gave a very successful concert followed by a grand ball. Besid-es making many new friends, the sextet gained much through this musical experience. ni W M K? FOOTBALL ROUNDUP WITH the newly-appointed coach, Mr. John Walker, and assistant coach Romano at the helm, Plymouth High opened its 1940 season against Hingham and registered victory number one at the expense of the Trojans. The first victory was one of the seven piled up by Plymouth's gridiron stars. They suf- fered two setbacks, one of which was hard to lose. That was when Plymouth played in Abington and the two teams were deadlocked for the first half. How- ever, late in the third quarter Abington recovered a fumble on Plymouth's two- yard stripe. It was then only a matter of McPhelmy driving over his right guard for the touchdown. This was the only score of the game, and Abington finished on top by a 6-0 count. Plymouth's grid stars on the follow- ing Saturday stopped Rockland's un- certain football machine by a 13-0 count and registered victory number two. The next game played was that be- tween Plymouth and its newly-estab- lished football connection, Attleboro. Plymouth won this hard-fought game by a 13-0 score. The two touchdowns came in the second and third periods as the result of passes. The first score, late in the second period, was the cul- mination of a 78 yard sustained drive, in which Plymouth in just four passes and four rushes reached pay dirt. Bernardo, Benati, and Strassel set up this touchdown with Bernardo and Ben- ati throwing them and Strassel on the receiving end. Silvio Adamo scored the second touchdown on a reverse play, taking the lateral from Captain Stevens in close formation. This came early in the third period after B-ernardo had in- tercepted an Attleboro pass on the At- tleboro 28 yard line. Benati th-en threw a pass, Bernardo received it, and the 138 pound back was downed on the J eweler's three-yard stripe. Bernardo was hurt on the play, and was forced to leave the game. He was replaced by Adamo who GOF 'L went over for Plymouth's second touch- down after two more plays. On the following Saturday, Plymouth scored its fourth victory of the season by winning a victory over Bridgewater by a 14-7 score. Bernard-o's passing and Benati's power driving were two reasons for the Plymouth scores. Ben- ati, in both instances, booted between the uprights with Bernardo holding. Bridgewater scored on a lateral to Dame on Bridgewater's 30 yard stripe and he raced 65 yards up the field, being downed just 5 yards short of a score. In the third period, a pass from Zion scored for the stubborn Bridgewater eleven. A doubtful Middleboro team went down fighting the next Saturday at Middleboro. The Orange and Black scored a touchdown in the third period to throw a scare into the Plymouth boys who had 12 points chalked up, but the game ended with Plymouth the victor 12-6. In a downpour of rain the following week, Plymouth and Whitman fought their forty-sixth annual classic and Plymouth won its fifth straight victory from the Red and Black with Bernardo and Benati doing all the scoring to give Plymouth a 13-0 win. Weymouth High's gridiron champs kept their slate clean when they invaded and completely dominated the play to defeat Plymouth 34-7. Cavallo, Del- orey, and Wheeler were the main scor- ing factors for Weymouth. Benati, not at all happy about the score, passed and rushed his way to Weymouth's four- yard lin-e and then plunged over for Plymouth's lone touchdown. The final game of the season found Plymouth making good its chances to even the s-eries with a newcomer, Barn- stable, by defeating the Cape Codders 25-6 to end a successful grid season. Barnstable was stopped cold in the last two periods wh-en Plymouth rolled up a score which gave Coaches Walker and Romano something to talk about. This game also climaxed the high school football career of Idore Benati, Adelino Page 63 Bernardo, Martin McAuley, Harold Strassel, Edward Ribeiro, and Captain Dean Stevens, who graduate this year.

Th-e varsity agrees that the subs provided stiff opposition during scrimmage practices. Ted-dy Martin, second-string quarterback, injured his leg during one of these sessions. The boys haven't forgiven the referee of the Middleboro game for the perfect block on Eddie Ribeiro who was chasing a Middleboro back who had completed a pass. The back scored a touchdown as Ribeiro, the only obstacle in his way, was taken out by the referee- unintention- ally, of course. At Nantucket where the Plymouth third-stringers were badly beaten by the powerful Nantucket varsity, the Bar- bieri brothers were so eager that, in the course of the game, the boys growled at their opposition. Ever since that game, the boys have been appropriately named the Growler Brothers. When some player missed a pass or failed to carry out an as.signment, Coach Walker usually cried, Get a gun ! or Shoot him! When Coach Romano threw a bad pass, he explained, Wait till I throw a few more. I haven't warmed up enough. One day Danny Sullivan fell right in- to a mud puddle as he was running out for a pass. Loring Belcher received a magnificent black eye during a second team game. When Bliss hit the tackling dummy, he recoiled beautifully. The boys on the squad, as well as the coaches, agree that they have had a fine time this season. All seniors regret they cannot play football next year, but wish next year's squad the best of luck. IDORE BENATI '41 Page 64 Coach Walker, Capt. Stevens and Coach Romano GET THAT BALL ANOTHER year of basketball has passed, and the season of '40-'41 is now a memory. However, the players will not easily forget some of the games played. Although the hoop team of P. H. S. lost six games, it also defeated eight teams to earn a percentage of .600, which is nothing to be ashamed of con- sidering the calibre of the teams that Plymouth High must compete against. To start th-e s-eason, the Plymouth hoopsters journeyed to Abington, and before a capacity crowd drubbed last year's champions to the tune of 37-15. The Plymouth boys shared fairly equally in the scoring. but the speed of Captain Bernardo and the scoring of Arthur Pederzani, who caged six field goals that w-ere magnificent, were outstand- ing. The second game at Hingham was a thriller from start to finish, but Plym- out High end-ed on the short end of a 31-28 score. The game was decided in the last minute of play after Plymouth had tied the score at 28-28. The third game at Rockland brought together two great rivals in basketball. Rockland High, previously rated as the best schoolboy team in the district, was FOOTBALL SQUAD Front Row: Murdock Christie, Arthur Ruozzi, Martin McAuley, Edward Ribeiro, George Butters. Arthur Moskos, Sidney Shwom, Albert Post, and Harold Strassel Second Row: Coach John Walker, Silvio Adamo, Harold Maccaferri, Dean Stevens, Idore Benati, Adelino Bernardo, and M1'. Mario Romano removed from its high perch when the Plymouth sharpshooters took a 36-33 decision in a truly hard-fought game. The Rockland players went down glori- ously with every evidence of good sports- manship. Captain Bernardo played the greatest game of his high school career by caging 13 points and by setting up many plays. East Bridgewater invaded Plymouth the following Friday night and captured a 48-36 decision. East Bridgewater led all the way, although the last two periods were rather close until late in the fourth period. On the following Tuesday, Plymouth invaded East Bridgewater, but was re- pulsed tothe tune of 27-18. This game also was decided in the last quarter. Captain Bernardo and Arthur Peder- zani scored 13 of the 18 points for the Plymouth cause. The night following the East Bridge- water tilt, Plymouth encountered a stub- born North Attleboro team, and, after a rough encounter which put Adelino Bernardo and Vito Brigida on the bench on fouls, Plymouth registered a one- point triumph, 30-29. Behind the shooting of Pederzani and Bernardo, Plymouth made it victory number five at the expense of a fast- breaking Middleboro team, the final score being 35-20. The work of Wilbert Cingolani and Arthur Pederzani helped bring Plym- outh victory number six when they scored 29 points against a hard-fighting Bridgewater outfit. This same Bridgewater team revenged itself by walking over Plymouth on its home floor by a 44-29 score. This game was closely contested at the half, with the Plymouth lads having a slender 21- 20 lead. The following Friday North Attle- boro traveled to Plymouth, only to go back disappointed at a 35-23 setback. Then Plymouth High lost all the pep it possessed in the North Attleboro clash, and dropped a 35-27 thriller to Abing- ton. Again Bernardo and Pederzani caged 23 of the 27 points scored. The next game was eagerly awaited, for the Plymouth hoopsters were out to avenge the three-point defeat handed to them by Hingham for Plymouth's first setback. The contest was closely fought all the way, but Plymouth m-anaged to hold on to a one-point lead to even the count with Hingham for the year. The final score was 39-38. Rockland made its Plymouth debut by copping a well-earned 38-32 victory from an in-and-out Plymouth basketball team. , Plymouth High started off on the right foot in the Brockton Tournament by drubbing a slow-moving Randolph team, 48-27. In the semi-final tilt, Plymouth High encountered the heavily- favored Stoughton team. Stoughton, who was picked to wade through all op- position in Class A , met a snag in the Page 65 BOYS' BASKETBALL Front, Row: Errington Brown, Manager, Gerald Romano, Adelino Bernardo, Peter ' ' -d C h J h W lk Brigida, an oac 0 n a er . n .

Dean Stevens, and Idore Benati Plymouth crew and, after a hard-fought, nip and tuck affair, emerged the winner by a one-point margin in the overtime period-the final score being 42-41. Captain Bernardo and Arthur Pederzani displayed their usual good form and scored 37 of the 41 points for Plymouth. MacKay, for Stoughton, put in the last and game-winning basket for the smooth- playing Stoughton team after Plymouth had become the apparent winner with only 17 seconds left to play. And with this resume, the curtain falls on another basketball season at Plymouth High School.

In P. H. S. we all excel, And we don't lag upon the belly Down corridor we madly tear, You see for speed we have a flair. In sports, you say, there's been small cheer For any sophomore yet this year, But just you wait a little while And we'll be best in any trial. Our leader is a noble man By name of William Jackson Lam- To him and his we do accord The job of representing Ford. Kearsley comes from Manomet, And he's our good vice-president: He owns a car-nine years it's run, Like all old Fords, its time is done. Our secretary played the 'cello, Its tones were far from sweet and mellow- But now o'er keyboard Jonesie roams Evoking even weirder tones. Now at our till is Bouncing Ben, For surplus coin he has a yen- Although our books he'd gladly run, Our assets now are just plain none.

Inside I-:C+ Uwg Illlfll 'EH wg BULLY! BULLY! WITH a clash of sticks and at the ex- pense of many bruised shins, the girls of Plymouth High ushered in a new field hockey season in which there were many thrilling games frequently ending in ties. This year the team was com- posed entirely of seniors, who had worked patiently through their high school years toward the time when they would be worthy of a place on the team. One of the most important positions on the the team is that of goal tender, for she must assume the responsibility of saving the team from any error on the part of the defense. To Helen Whiting goes the credit for developing into one of the finest players in that position. For that matter, all the girls filled their positions gallantly and eiectively, for at the close of the season they had experi- enced defeat only twice. The games were exciting and hard- fought, particularly those which were played with Scituate and Middleboro, who admittedly had very good teams this year. The team, led by a most efiicient captain, Dorothy Morton, deserves praise for its go-od sportsmanship and spirit, even when defeat was imminent. It is interesting to note that Scituate had an undefeated, untied record until its team arrived in Plymouth for the second annual clash. It proved to be one of the most hard-fought games of the season, in which Plymouth marred its opponent's record by emerging with a tie score of one to one. By our coach, Mrs. Beatrice Garvin, the seniors will always be remembered as the famous tie team , for it tied four of the seven games. However, the record shows that the season can be fairly d-escribed as successful. To the girls who will wear the blue tunics next October the girls of 1941 wish the best of luck and a season that they may long remember.

Originally organized as an intra-mural pro- gram, a squad of twenty players soon represented the school in inter-scholastic games. Practising at Memorial Hall and the Armory, the girls passed through cycles of undefeated seasons and through other winters of competition that meant building back to more suc- cessful schedules. This group grew to the point where first and second varsity as well as class games were played by the forty girls who reported. When the new building became our playing field, a problem of ninety girls and three prac- tice days meant the introduction of a modern program. To all interested girls is extended the opportunity for weekly t-echnique and practice games, and then the playing in class groups among their own school squads. That those of su- ! iss 'fl Cat: Having nine lives, I will die nine times. Frog: That's nothing. I croak every minute. Nit: I hear that fish is a good brain food. Wit: Oh, I eat just oodles and oodles of fish. Nit: W-ell, there's another good theory shot to pieces. Water attracts electricity. Have you made tests to prove it? Yes, every time I'm in the bathtub the telephone rings. Teacher: If you could do it. Tommy, what would you invent? Tommy: Something that would do my lesson if I just pressed a button, ma'am. Teacher: You lazy boy! Now, Billy, you are not so lazy. What would you invent? Billy: Something to press the button, ma'am. -B oys' perior ability should not lose the oppor- tunity of meeting girls of other schools, observing their plays and spirit, an invi- tation is extended to the Alumnae and other schools to come to the Plymouth gymnasium for Play Day competition. The day is so named to designate it as an effort to promote all the worthwhile points of competition, and this year girls came from Middleboro, Hing- ham, and Bourne. A team of eight players is selected from each class squad and an inter- school game afternoon finds seventy girls playing in both gymnasiums- happy at seeing the results of their own play improvement, but quick to ac- knowledge superiority in their oppon- ents. When undergraduate squads are fortunate enough to win many of their games, they are immediately challenged by th-e necessity of seeing to it that they retain their speed and skill in order to succeed against the same opponents the next year. The afternoon ends with school cheers and refreshments, the visiting team leaving with friendly thanks and promises to return another season.

Perhaps they do, my son, but you may t-ell your teacher that there is a vast difference between a congregation and a collection. Father: Didn't you promise me to be a good boy? Son: Yes, father. Father: And didn't I promise you a good thrashing if you weren't? Son: Yes, father, but, as I've broken my promise, you needn't keep yours. First D-emon: Ha, ha, ha! Second: Why the laugh? First: I just put a woman in a room with a thousand beautiful hats and no mirror. First Tramp: Say, I hear old Jake has a job now. Second Tramp: Yep, it's sure a shame what people will do for money.
