This issue of the Golden Rod is not only a senior year booh, but a sophomore and junior edition as well. In the following pages we've not only tried to pay tribute to those students of ()uincy High who have served, and are still serving in the Armed Forces, but also to record lasting and pleasant memories of our high school days. page four Table of Contents IN MEMORIAM 6 OlIR BOVS Ruth Fandel . 8 EDITORIAI . 14 In Mf.moriam ......

Like the poet, thus would we speak of our boys who have made the supreme sacrifice. How well do we remember with what eagerness they went forth to battle the foes of humanity. They would not be turned from their course. Duty called and they must obey. Quincy High School mourns the loss of these promising young lives, but she is proud that they and many more had learned from her that devotion to country and the preservation of its ideals must come before all per- sonal interest and desire. We pray God that this sacrifice may not have been in vain. ‘Rest, comrades, rest and sleep! The thoughts of men shall be As sentinels to keep Your rest from danger free. Ernest L.

I I . page seven In a war as extensive and as mammoth as the one we have just completed, it seems strange to think that a school as small and as insignificant in world affairs as Quincy High could have played such an important pail, hut Quincy High has supplied many of the nationally recognized heroes as well as a good portion of the rank and file of the armed forces. It was a Quincy man who dropped the atomic bomb on Nagasaki. A Quincy man, who was an officer on Bataan when it fell, brought that heartbreak even closer to the people of this cit . It was a Quincy High graduate who entered the army as a physician and, hav- ing attained the position of General Douglas MacArthur’s physician, treated one of the most notorious personalities involved in the war. But most of all, Quincy High graduates made up part of the millions of enlisted men who made our armed forces what they are. Gradually, men who at one time or another strolled down the corridor past the pony, oblivious of any interest other than the next class, were absorbed into the services. Some had been away from books and Coddington Street for years; others had to lay down their pencils and books to go to fight. In time, almost all of the Quincy youth went, leaving a noticeable absence in the streets and in the high school. During the years 1942-1946, Quincy traveled to every part of the earth where U. S. forces ventured. Sometimes it was an officer representing Quincy, flying the skies of Europe in anything from a Piper cub to a B-17; other times it was a G. I. trudging through the mud of Nor- mandy or dodging over the sands of Anzio. Often times as they sludged through the devastation and ruin, they thought of the pretty pictures and descriptions they'd seen in the geography books at Central. South, and Point. Many of them got a chance to practice up on the French, German, and Spanish they’d mastered as five points toward that diploma. Of course, when like one Quincyite, they got stranded in some strange, mysterious, and utterly unknown region like Tibet, their studies would have been of no avail, but that alibi habit acquired when returning change of room slips should have served in good stead. Over in the Pacific Quincy men fought for islands they’d never heard of before—tongue twisters like Guadalcanal, Tarawa, Saipan, Tinian, Leyte, Mindoro, Iwo Jima, Okinawa, Pelew. Some waited on those islands up to three years for the word page eight to stari home. Fellows that had never seen more salt water than that in Wollaston Bay found themselves being tossed around in those typhoons and monsoons they’d heard about in the few weeks the ( lass spent on the southwestern Pacific. Many others had some of the mysteries of India and the Orient solved for them during their visit.” All realized sooner or later that there were many things cultivated in Japan other than silkworms. While our Quincy boys were off to the wars, the girls who felt so inclined, joined the women’s services. Tfie WACS, WAVES. SPARS. Women Marines, Red Cross, and all important Army and Navy Nurse Corps received a good I number of Quincy girls. Many of them traveled the ‘ Stales and foreign coun- tries. writing back stories and adventures as seen from a different angle. Many other Quincy girls stayed at home writing letters, taking over the innumerable jobs left open, and waiting for that day to come when the boys would return again. Then one by one stories appeared telling the harrowing tales of prisoners who had been released after having spent months of the war in concentration camps dreaming ol Quincy Square on Saturday night and the soda fountain in their favorite drug store. Soon redeployed became a much used term. More stories of the release ol starved, lifeless men were found, and then the final peace. No sooner was the word official than When can I start home?” became the topic ol interest More rapidly than expected, Quincy's missing numbers began return- ing to the buses, streets, and even to the classrooms. Quincy men returned the same boys that wiggled out of homework and kidded with the teachers, a little older, a little wiser, but essentially the same. And now as they pass down Cod- dington Street driving the family car instead of the two and one-half-ton affair they’ve been used to, they look at the building wistfully and say to themselves, Gee, I had fun there!” Rlth Fandel page mne In Quincy, the School Committee has general charge of the public schools, including evening schools, vocational schools, and departments when not other- wise provided for. A great many duties are reeptir d of this committee- first, it determines, subject to the General Laws, the length ol the school year and it may make regulations as to attendance; secondly, it elects and contracts with teachers ol the public sc hools, elec ts the Superintendent and other department employees; thirdly, textbooks and other school supplies are provided by it: and lastly, it prepares annually its budget which is submitted to the Mayor. The committee is elected at large and consists of six elected members and th Mayor, who is chairman. It organizes annually the- first Monday in January and at that meeting elects one of its membets to serve as Vice-Chairman: the Secretary; and Clerk ol the Committee.

Walsh page thirteen Editorial 3ht ifli'muriant Since the close of hostilities, mam varied suggestions have been offered as to what form of memorial Quincy High School should establish for those men— our friends and classmates—who paid the supreme sacrifice. One student is not capable of deciding upon a fitting and effective dedication. I bis project is so important it needs the best in ideas from several pupils who, themselves, should solve the problem ol a fitting memorial. In general the suggestions have been plaques and statues. William Guyctte suggested that a new pony should be erected, to take the place ol the old one. which is cracked in several places. The pony has always been a symbol to the students ol Quincy High—and even more so to those who’ve gone. Is it necessary that this memorial be built by the hands of men? Would not having it built in the hearts of men be even more potent? This sentiment was very adequately and simph expressed In Ruth Fandel, when she said. And now as you lie with your buddies, some ol whom died for a way they never fully understood, you wonder if back home they‘11 remember, because that’s all you ask them to do is to remember—those who gave their lives. Laurice Haynes believes that the best type of memorial would be a scholar- ship which would enable a boy or gill to enter college for earnest research ami study. Now. in this atomic era, the need for intelligent men and women is pre- eminent. II this country is to remain at peace with the other nations ol the world, it must have the support of every man. woman and child. Onl through education of these people will future wars be avoided and a lasting peace obtained. The best conceivable type of memorial today is one which will prevent another memorial tomorrow. M aI REF.N Mot ETON The boys and girls of America today must face an unprecedented problem in education, an enigma—How to get into college? The nation’s institutions ol higher learning are and will be overcrowded with returning veterans, high school graduates, and their wartime enrollment. It is only just that every ex-serviceman be given a fair chance to make good in college if he so desires. This means that some ol the high school graduates of 1946 simply must wait, for a brief period, at least. There are outlets to the solution of the question. Many of the veterans who do enter school, will doubtless abandon theii plans for extended education aftei a not too lengthy stay in college. Room lor more young men is being made in some co educational institutions by drastic 01 complete reduction of the feminine enrollment. This, of course, in helping to supply the answer to the male dilemma, is adding to the female predicament. It means that girls’ colleges will have an augmented entrance list to handle. Concerning the possible additional question as to whether or not 18-year olds will be inducted into some form ol military service either by peacetime con- sci ipiion oi compulsory legislation, the outlook doesn’t seem too dark. The gov- ernment may have to be satisfied to secure the necessary forces by the voluntary enlistment of young men. Many boys intend to enlist for a one and a half or two year stretch to gain G. I. privileges upon discharge and to pass over the time between high school graduation and college entrance. The veteran must come first today. Where there is room, the more worthy civilians rale second choice—the others will have to wait. Paul Goode HHeuKm PVT JIM OVERMIRE. JR 67458. U.S.M.C. During the moonlit night the transport packed with fighting men, fighting equipment, moved and zigzagged its way through the smooth Pacific waters in convoy; men were about the decks, talking, joking, laughing, in groups, in pairs— passing awa time in the best manner. Time was free and plentiful now; before long it would end for some. Laurie Sherman and I had just finished arguing. Now we stared into the night, at the stars, and at the moon. I still thought that combat wouldn't be too tough; anyway, with faith in yourself and in your own sacred beliefs, you could go through, and maybe even do a few heroic things, make day dreams real. Laurie. I knew, was different. How foolish and even cowardly his opinions seemed, to me—his not wanting to see action, his constant fear of sudden death, his hoping never to go in. . . . Well. Laurie, you just wait and see; it won't be too bad. And anyway, that's why I joined the Marines—to get some action; maybe soon I'll get that chance. I muttered almost angrilv. He would never see my point of view, so what was the use of talking to him about an operation. We changed the subject, therefore, and were back on the same level—talking and planning our good times to come on our future dates, the old get-togethers of our crowd, and the hell we would raise when we got back home. You see, Laurie and I were real buddies, both from Grant- ville; being buddies, it was easy to pass away the time talking- radio of the desperate Jap resis- tance and of the high casualties among our men. seen a few planes shot from the sky, realized the huge fues were actually our own fuel and ammunition dumps. Yet no orders had come for us to go ashore; instead, confusion was throughout the ship, and men peering through binoculars, watching the tiny dots that were our men on shore. A regi ment of experienced Marines on board had left earlier in the morning, but I was only a replacement, one of many. It seemed tough to me—seeing the others go to the island while we stayed behind and waited, waited as if all and every- body had suddenly forgotten our presence. Combat was still for me fighting the enemy, heroes and gallant battles, fear unheard of on the front lines. But why. I wondered, had the veteran Marines who had left earlier this morning been so still, so disinterested; why were there no jokes, no laughter, no horseplay? Probably there was something I hadn’t learned yet . . . but no. the feeling surged through me again. As I waited, the order, Move out,” would not come soon enough. We had watched the smoking island where the beachhead had been established and advances pushed inward, heard over the talking until we both decided to ' hit the sack.” P page sixteen The small landing craft were sloshing through the choppy whitccaps in huge circles awaiting the order from a nearby L.S.T. lor our group to land on Yellow beach. There were eighteen ol us in our craft, mostly seasick and wet. Some leaned on their rifles, others slung them over their shoulders: few had grenades hung on their cartridge belts—seemingly an unnecessary burden of weight. Oh, it was wickedly raw and miserably cold: pack straps cut into shoul- ders, arms were numb, stomachs rolled. We received the signal and quickly headed for the shore. Then 1 glanced back, and there was Laurie: we smiled, but faint- l : our smile was short, for some- one veiled and things began to happen then. Our craft scraped bottom and we leaped out into the loose brown sand, then wallowed in it: airplanes were strafing off to our left and right with a steady and deafening staccato: explosions ahead—only our own mortar and artillery crews: black, twisting smoke curled slowly into the low, dark clouds from burning and smouldering installations on the beach: men were barking orders, and all seemed in confusion to my inexperienced eyes. We floun- dered ahead in single column further up into the beach: I saw around me men who crouched low in fox holes and wearily glanced at us. Others lay by the road. Why there? I thought. As I trudged by, (hills and emptiness went through my body for I saw their white and waxen faces—so still, their open eyes seeing nothing, their blood-clotted hair moving in the wind: their still and broken bodies strewn in holes. These lifeless men, the day before full of life and warmth, would never move again, never smile again. Wild thoughts ran through my mind, my throat tightened, and I seemed to stumble onward. I didn’t desire glory now, for death seemed the only answer. Now I realized that battles were not scenes set for heroes, but places far from home where men fight in a grim manner and die for a cause which is common to each man’s mind—fighting to save a country, and hoping to come back alive. What role will I play here? came the thought as we dodged for cover from snipers’ bullets. . . . Editor's Not� : I � . James Overmire.

ULeSU- page seventeen This is the second most important day of my life” (the first one being in her estimation, the day she was born), thought Clara, as she hopped out of a restful slumber. I wonder what the weather will be today. I hope it is nice. It’s just got to be nice, she said to herself as she walked toward the window. Sure enough, the sun was shining bright and it was a beautiful day. “Oh. that's a relief.” she sighed. 'I hope it stays this way. Satisfied with the world in general, she hurried through her toilet habits (still careful to make sure she was spic and span, for Clara was very particular about her appearance) and ran happily down- stairs to the kitchen. There, as usual, was Mrs. Flowers concocting delicious dishes for the household breakfast. Mrs. Flowers was not her mother, for Clara had been made an orphan at the early age of nine months when her parents had been killed in an automobile accident. However, the Flowers’ were very good friends of Clara’s parents and so they adopted her and endeavored to bring her up right. Mrs. Flowers in some ways represented those gifts of nature to which her name was similar. On certain days she was happy and spry and just blossoming forth with good humor and sunshine, but on others, she was tired and droopy and seemingly too worn to lift her head. On this particular day she was in very good form and greeted Clara with a cheerful Good morning, dear,” and then con- tinued her chores. Clara said nothing but went right to her breakfast, for she was totally famished. Mrs. Flowers smiled knowingly and said. “I won’t bother you much today as I know you must be very excited. She had, Clara decided, hit the proverbial nail on the head, and she scarcely paused a moment, leaving as soon as breakfast was finished. She felt good when she got outside in the brisk March weather; here and there she noticed the first signs of Spring. She enjoyed immensely these morning walks, which she had started taking two weeks ago. and she could hardly wait, when they were over, for the next day to come. This particular morning her walk took her to the rural part of the town which was the part Clara liked best. She didn't like the busy business section with its roaring noises, eternal tide of rushing people, and those fresh male characters, found in every city, whose object in life is to bother young and pretty females like herself. Not that Clara was afraid of them, for she could handle herself all right. How- ever, Clara liked the country best and as this was a very special day, she thought that nothing but the best would do. She enjoyed herself immensely for the next hour and a half, and when she had enough of nature’s beauty she returned home. No one was home, but Clara let herself in through the door which was always left open for her. Being tired from her morning excursion, she decided to take a short nap. She hoped she wouldn’t sleep too long as she wanted to be awake when the event took place. About five o’clock Mrs. Flowers came home from her Red Cross meeting, Mr. Flowers followed shortly from work. “Well, Jim, have a good day at the office?” asked Mrs. Flowers. Fair,” said her husband, and then after a moment’s pause. Where’s Clara? She usually comes running to meet me? 'I don’t know.” said Mrs. Flowers, she went out for a walk this morning and must have come home while I was out.” She must be taking a nap. then,” sighed Jim, thinking that that's what he would do. She isn't in her room,” frowned Mrs. Flowers, a little worried. Don’t worry about her, she can take care of herself, concluded Mr. Flowers. Just the same. Mrs. Flowers was not relieved, and as soon as supper was finished, she decided to look around for her. Mr. Flowers was resting comfortably on the sofa couch, smoking his corn cob pipe, and just day dreaming when he heard his wife cry out from the cellar. Immediately, he jumped up and, without stopping even to put on his shoes, ran down the cellar stairs After her first cry Mrs. Flowers had been silent, and now nothing could be heard but the muffled thumping of Mr. Flowers’ stocking feet on the wooden stairs. VVh • • What’s the matter?” he asked breathlessly as he saw Mrs. Flowers over in one corner. Look, Jim, Look. she said, pointing to a box in the corner. “Claia has given birth to a half dozen kittens This did not surprise Mr. Plovers very much because after all, Clara, was a cat.

Mai gave t Johnson page nineteen Well, the old grey boat is gone at last. During the night a northeaster blew in the rising tide, and the storming waves lilted her Irom the high ground on which she has rested these many winters. Now she lies over in the marsh, her side torn asunder, her ribs sticking out like the carcass of last Sunday’s turkey. My father built her himself up at Quincy High School during the winter of 1910. He made the pattern from the boat of an old Swede, I think his name was Swenson, a natural-born fisherman and lover of the sea, who gave my father many valuable hints. Cypress for the sides, oak for the prow, yellow pine for the bottom, and nothing but brass screws, copper nails, and galvanized fittings would do. Then, finally, painted a shiny, battleship grey, she was placed on exhibition at the end of the school term, along with other articles turned out by students. Somehow, grey seemed to be her color and we never varied it. She always seemed happiest just to lie out there in the water without drawing too much attention, and. thereafter, she came to be known as “the grey boat.” Yes, she was quite a boat and she had mam admirers. First, of course, was my father, her creator, and then, in time, my brother. Even in the cold grey hours of winter dawn, when the snow was thick and ice stiffened the anchor rope so that it had to be laid lengthwise along the gunwales, these two would steal out to some fog-covered island and pile great masses of seaweed on the rocks for a blind. Then, with their guns in one hand and a brace of ducks in the other, the conquering heroes returned, cold and ravenous, to a glowing fire and a steam- ing pot of savory victuals. From early spring when the flounders first came out of the mud. until late fail when the smelts swarmed in schools along the edge of the eel grass, someone was out in her. I guess it was love from the first time I sat in her and liked the feel of the swells. As I grew up. I learned to row and. funny thing. I just knew that nothing serious could happen in that good old sturdy, flat-bottomed, grey boat. Maybe it was a mysterious vovage to an undiscovered shore in search of buried treasure, or a merry picnic on a distant island at which we children would bask in luxurious thoughts and dance with joy for days in advance. The old grey boat almost came to life and enjoyed the pastime as much as we. I remember well those lazy afternoons snoozing under an old straw hat to the deep rolling lullaby of the long, drowsy swells and the steady quiver of the undisturbed fish line, or even a frolicking water battle when no one could possibly emerge without a sound ducking or hearts splash. Never once did she mind our rocking or abuse; she seemed to love every moment. But now. she’s gone and 1 shall miss her. I never knew what was considered a decent end for a boat. Somehow. I always thought of a boat lying out there on the beach, filled with shifting sands and slowly disintegrating as lime and rot and beating waves carried it into oblivion. Guess I'll just leave the old grey boat where she lies. Some child seeking driftwood will come along and take parts of her home, and the stove or open fireplace will glow blue and green and red from the copper and brass and salt in her. She won’t mind or think she has come to an inglorious end, because she has given us memories and to us she will always be the symbol of freedom, youth, and adventure. Marilyn Soithwicr page twenty : Sortie Ii was the 2‘lth of March in Foggia, Italy, at the air base of the 463(1 Bomber Croup. Hie day was only three and one-hall hours old and was damp and very muddy. The black, shifting smoke from the 100 octane gas fires burning in the makeshift stores of the te nts gave an appearance as in Pittsburgh. I'lie Colonel, on his rounds, was wakening the fellows scheduled for the day’s bombing mission. Presently, he earner to I’-.SO where he found silence but for the bustling around ol my two pups, Battle Orders and Stand Down”—from orders ol the clay: Battle Order being snow white, meaning we would fly because of suitable weather. “Stand Down” being jet black, meaning we would stand down on ac- count of bad weather. There were seven of us in this six-man tent, but we made out nicely by building extensions, making tables, lockers, and chairs, acquiring some candles, and tigging up a radio. Five of us belonged to one crew, and the other two on another, but they weren't scheduled to fly. We were quite easy to waken as we had anticipated a rough mission today. There was some kidding as usual, but it seemed to be hiding a tenseness due to the secrecy ol the sortie. Without chaos, the gunners took their turn at the wash basin a steel helmet mounted on a sawed-oll 100-pound practice bomb casing. We lilc-d out. grabbing our mess kits from our cots. Soon we were sitting down to our usual breakfsat of dehydrated eggs, after sweating out a brief wait in line. As we walked back to our tents, the sun was rising, turning the sky blood red. The fifteen minute s before briefing we used putting our tents in good shape. At the- briefing room, we quieted down right away. The Major, a heavy-set moustached man of around forty, was ascending the steps of the platform, fol- lowed by his two aides. The room was quiet except lor the footfalls of these three. page twenty-one The first word caused excitement, but little noise—BERLIN. Berlin was a rough mission, even with short Hying time, hard on the nerves, but this was to be the longest mission ever flown by this type of plane. They first told us the heading, altitude, and weather conditions, giving the gunners a warning to be extremely alert for enemy planes. The target was a panther tiger tank factory— heavily fortified—in the heart of the city. At this point the gunners all filed out to get their gear out of the personal equipment bin, to clean and check their guns for malfunctions. The pilot, navigator, bombardier, and radioman re- mained for extra instruction. Twenty minutes later we were all together at the plane, rushing to get our equipment and chaff aboard. The tenth plane left the ground with a terrific slipstream which rocked us from side to side. We were next on the turnibas. In a short space of time “Sno Snap” and the crew arrived at the rendezvous point. In a few moments all the planes had arrived, and soon we were flying along on our heading which was almost true north. We slowly gained altitude over the Adriatic Sea, Yugoslavia, and when we were in Austria, we started getting flak. It was the most accurate I have ever seen, or the whole group for that matter. During the running oi this gauntlet we lost thirty per cent of our ships. Next on the flak line parade was Prague, Czechoslovakia. The flak was fairly heavy but inaccurate. We came through this with only one loss. We were coming up to Berlin when all of a sudden the tail gunner muttered over the interphone, very distinctly. “ME262 5 o’clock high.” I swung my 50 around: for a moment I couldn’t see him. Then he became as clear as an ink spot on a piece of white paper: the jet looked just like the pictures I’d seen at aircraft identification. 1 gave him only one burst, but it was rather long. He- then seemed to go out of control and went swerving back and forth and down. A short moment later four P-5l’s swished by my window going down in the direction of the jet. 1 wasn't much moved by the attack because of an accident that happened to the radioman. As soon as the tail gunner had called out the enemy plane, the radio man gave a start to get up and became entangled in his lines. He forgot about the camera pit to his right on the floor where he had to stand to fire his gun. As he jumped up, he tripped and went into the hole. All the time I was firing, I was doubled with laughter at his helpless condition. Just after the attack we noticed an oval structure on the ground which was a Colosseum very near the target. Immediately I sat down and started throwing chaff out of the chute. This chaff was a counter radar measure, and as it went floating by the planes, it gave me a comforting sense of security. f age twenty-two The flak was coming up fast and furious now, making the plane jump around. We started rolling to our right still in the midst of the flak. It stopped momentarily, and 1 got up to my window at the right waist ol the ship. Just as I got to it, I saw one of our planes drifting out of control over on our right. Suddenly one man parachuted out the rear escape hatch, followed in quick suc- cession by five others from different hatches. They had no sooner cleared the plane than it blew up in one black cloud, disappearing from sight. We could still see the target with smoke billowing up to a great height. The bombing results had been very good. All ol the fellows were glad of this because we wouldn't be coming up here again for some time. Coming back home we had to lose altitude fast because of the low supply of oxygen in every ship. We took off our oxygen masks at fourteen thousand feet over Yugoslavia where one ol the planes couldn’t make the last mountain before the Adriatic and crashed into it. A P-38 was sent back to locate it, but was unable to. The rest of the trip was uneventful, and soon we were coming in for our landing. The fellows and I were dead tired because of the almost ten-hour trip, most of it on oxygen. Nevertheless, we had to go to Interrogation where we were first given coffee and doughnuts. All of the ground crew and the flying personnel who weren't on the mission were asking questions of their buddies—where they were, how fast did it come to them, were any parachutes seen. Although the sortie was supposedly secret, all of the men had seemed to sense both the importance and the roughness. Somehow or other, we managed to get back to our tent in less time than usual. When we entered the door, Battle Order” and “Stand Down greeted us uproariously. The other fellows began discussing the mission, but that wasn’t for me. I got the two pups on my cot and lay down beside them. I don't know how long the fellows talked, for I was soon sound asleep. Jack McKim page twenty-three cJ iue an Jj earn I really don’t know just how it happened. I was digging for my trig notebook in my locker one morning when he came by and said. Hi!” Hi!” I gulped and turned back to my search, but he didn’t go away. Who ya going to the prom with?” he blurted. 1 blushed clear to my toes and answered, “Well-wh-I- uh that is 1 haven’t been asked—yet.” How 'bout coining with me?” From somewhere way up in the clouds, a voice that I recognized as my own replied, Thanks, I d love to!” Be seeing ya then,” and he strolled jauntily down the corridor whistling and gay as usual, but leaving my heart thumping at a jet-propelled rate. How I ever got thru that day is a mystery to me. In English Miss Harper called on me twice before I knew she was speaking to me. 1 handed in my physics homework to the French teacher, and in physics all I could mutter was the subjunctive of avoir and ehe. I was in a complete and blissful daze. I’m going to the prom with Roil Larson. He’s so nice and so handsome—always full of fun and life and ready for a swell linn . Me, Sue Thomas. I can’t believe it!” I repeated this over and over to myself all day. I’d secretly had a crush on Rod all year. I thought life was just too wonderful to be real. When 1 told Mum about my invitation, she was as pleased as I. After a confer- ence, Mum and Dad agreed that 1 could have a new gown for the big event. Now I was sure that life was just too super. The next day being Saturday, I was at the Bon Ton as the doors opened. After an hour of trying on gown after gown. I had limited my choice to three- a blue chif- fon, a red and white pique, and a yellow marquisette. Another half hour passed, and I had definitely chosen the yellow marquisette. It was out of this world! Gold slippers, a tiny sequined purse, and chiffon hank’ie completed by ensemble. Leaving school on the Great Day, Rod stopped me by the Pony. See you tonight about eight. Uh—what color’s your dress?” “My dress? Oh my dress, it’s yellow,” I answered, very nervous and flustered. “Okay, see you at eight. Off he went (to the florist’s, I supposed), but rather slowly, his head down between his broad shoulders and his brown eyes gazing at the ground. Why do men always leave things to the last minute? I queried myself, but was too happy to answer. As the clock struck seven, I sat at my dressing table brushing my dark brown hair which, for once, looked just as I wanted it to. I had taken a bath and used all my best bubble bath, lotions, and powders for this Night ol Nights. My gown hung on the hanger, the skirt all pressed and full ol ripples running the whole length. Finally, 1 was ready. The dress looked exquisite, just as I hoped. Just a bit more lip stick. There—that’s just fine. And a touch of perfume. The doorbell rang; Dad answered. A box from the florist for Miss Sue Thomas, he called up, laughing. 1 practically fi ll downstairs to my corsage- dainty blue corn- flowers. How lovely they looked against m yellow gown! I guess boys know more than they’re given credit for,” I thought. Life was just too wonderful to bear. My, but you look sweet, honey,” said Dad. “I’m so glad you bought the yellow dress. Sue. It is so lovely with your dark hair,” complimented Mum. So 1 went back upstairs. Not for the world would I let Rod know that I was wait- ing for him! I sat in my room dreaming of the wonderful time I would have, but sud- denly I was aroused from my day-dreaming. The clock struck eight. Oh, hurry, Rod!” I prayed silently. Then another sound pierced the silence. Telephone, Sue.” I dashed down the stairs. Hello. Yes, this is Sue, Mrs. Larson. Oh—oh—measles!” Nancy Westhaver page twenty-four 4 Strop Ct ar on a Goodness gracious! Where's that car? I can’t walk; it's much too far. Here it comes. Oh! what a mob!

For some strange reason, Mergetroid’s enthusiasm was short lived, and the next day found him walking gleefully down Fremont Street, approximately fifty feet in front of a last moving Mr. Burnham... . Thus it came about that Mergetroid, on his third day of school, started searching, not too gleefully, for Mr. MacDonald’s office, which was easily found, for on the door was the name MR. WILSON in brass letters. Now that Mergetroid had decided to come to school faithfully, he found it necessary to know who the head of the English department was so at once made himself acquainted with Miss Dawes. How surprised Mergetroid was to find that, in only one term of school. Miss Dawes had changed completely even going so far as to change her name to Miss Carville! But Mergetroid was no fool; he wasn't born yesterday; with but little thought he realized that somebody else had taken Miss Dawes' place. Mergetroid found that this unpleasant habit of teacher changing extended even to the Gym. He had no sooner come to love Mr. Bowyer and look upon him as a father than he found himself with an athletic step-father, so to speak, Mr. Alvino. As a junior Mergetroid felt himself more or less of an old timer in the build- ing and grew less and less startled at the rapid succession of teachers coming into the building. Of course, Mergetroid’s great love for the silver screen soon brought about his meeting with Mr. Wilson—whom for some strange reason he now found in the office with the same name. Mergetroid has often wondered since then why, with Mr. Wilson's arrival, no one put up a sign with Mr. MacDonald's name on it. Things were getting pretty bad though. Mergetroid had to show twice as many teachers where their rooms were as he did sophomores. Of course, this situation had a great many possibilities, but Mergetroid refrained, by dint of self control, from sending any of his erstwhile instructors in search of the elevator. However, aside from a few struggles with new teachers and the inevitable battle of the Second Floor Faucets, Mergetroid spent a fairly uneventful year. His senior year however was one to remember. Somebody, later discovered to have been one of the Gremlins from the School Committee, had run over flic school with a wet paint brush. Mr. Wilson now sat in a different office, and Mr. Anderson sat in the other office (which was no longer marked Mr. Wilson”). Mergetroid had language trouble, for it seemed that no one would stay put in the building long enough to let out with a good strong “Acht!” Miss Carville, growing tired of her job and her name, changed both. Even the Gym was dis- turbed again, for Mr. McLean came back from wearing out weary sailors and started grinding the bones of all of the prospective male geniuses of Q. H. S. Another naval alumnus came back to take over his old place in the physics department. Mergetroid suffered the change from Mr. Poland to Mr. Rayner, who has an aversion to telephones and who seemed to be getting a commission from the Laurence Slide Rule Company. Yes, it was a year of change, but Mergatroid weathered them like a trooper. But it’s all over now. Mergetroid just went down to Miss Dawes’ room, which Miss Carville had occupied, to say goodby to Miss Poland, went up to Mr. Poland’s room to say goodby to Mr. Rayner, bid adieu to Mrs. Campbell in Miss Kelsey’s room, then went downstairs and into Mr. Collin’s office to say goodby to Mr. Wilson and into Mr. Wilson’s office to say goodby to Mr. Anderson. James Major page twenty-six TWMBUNC TR.O'AE.Y-ES lOEUu MR. UD USOM its ute -n is------- J'Jometoum They parked the car at the top of the hill. The sun was just going down over Jack's Peak, but they could still see the little coastal town through the Sep- tember haze and, beyond the town, the dark waters of the bay. Tomorrow they would be leaving town, they Jim Gillette and Hud Staie— who just that afternoon had been fishing up in the north fork of the Big Sur River. Tomorrow they would report to Treasure Island lor duty with the United States Navy. They viewed in silence the white houses on the hill, the lights oi the main street, the grove ol eucalyptus that hid the high school, and the lishing boats in the bay. Then, little by little, they gave voice to the thoughts that were racing through their brains. Last June seems like yesterday, doesn't it. Jim? I mean the graduation and all.” That was some night, wasn’t it. Hud? The awards, the mayor’s speech, the white diplomas. What we went through to get that hunk of white paper!” For about a minute they gazed silently at the panorama spread out before them. This time Jim broke the silence. Some town, isn’t it. Hud? It's got an atmosphere about it like no other place. Maybe it's a combination of sea, sky. and hills blended in with a lot o’ real swell people. Jim was thinking especially of Shirley when he said that. Shirley had been Jim’s gill ever since the ninth grade. He could see Shirley's house from where he was sitting, the little white one with the light in the window. Bud’s thoughts and eyes were on the ball park. He was thinking of all the games he had played there during the last four vears. He might not have been the best first-baseman in California, but he loved baseball, and he had plenty of the old light. He was thinking of a day last June when he had singled with the bases loaded to break up the ball game and give the league championship to Monterey. Wonder what it'll be like,' said Jim. Mis gaze had shilted out to sea. In a few months we may be out there—where the headlines come from . . .” They sat silently for awhile, each lost in his own thoughts. Then abruptly Hud started the engine, shifted into gear, and said laconically. 'I have to clean the car before I go to bed.’’ Stuart Haskins It still doesn't seem possible, but in just five more minutes he'll come walk- ing; no. I’ll bet he’ll run as he did on his furlough, right through the crowd. It still doesn't seem possible that after three long years there's only five more min- utes before our family will be one again, and Mom’s number one son will be home to stay. 1 wonder if he's changed much; of course, he’s twenty-one now and that’s a lot different from a high school boy ’thout a care in the world. Ilis letters didn’t sound different though so he can't have changed much. I wonder it I’m very different. A lot can happen to a gal in three years, especially when she loses her older brother who’s always been there to lean on and to give that oh so help- ful (?) brotherly advice. When he saw the picture 1 sent him last August, he said I looked like a grown woman. Of course, the light was just right and the background, so 1 guess it was a little misleading. The gate is opening now and he ought to be here any minute. Oh. it’ll be wonderful cutting the pie in six pieces again, having those long legs sprawled all over the living room floor, and even getting squelched” as only a brother can squelch” a sister. Here comes the train now—and there go my knees. Golly, he looks wonderful, so tall and straight. He didn't need a top sergeant to make him look like a soldier. I hope I look all right, just this once. Here he is—first Mom. she’s as close to tears as I am, then Dad; how can men always keep calm, and now—there go those tears. Darn it all. 1 said I wouldn't cry. Gosh, I guess we can go home now all of us. 'To- morrow I’ll help him dig his old blue suit out of moth balls, and then the war will really be over. page twenty-eight Ruth Fandel alls There was once a very strong wall, A high, but a violable fort. . . .

Prospects were fairly bright: because, although there were only four lettermen coming back, there were several outstanding newcomers ready to fill in the ranks depleted by the 1945 graduation. Experts predicted that Coach Danny Alvino would have the best backfield on the South Shore and that the line would be the only question- able factor. These same fans were delighted when Quincy accepted an invitation to par- take in the first ‘Annual South Shore Football Jamboree,” held at Abington on .September 15. The jamboree was the first of pre-season grid meetings in which non-competing schools could engage in short exhibition games as a tuneup for the season and at which the fans could gain a preview of pigskin talent. Other participants were Brockton, Milton, Hanover, Hingham, New Bedford. Abing- ton, Randolph. Plymouth, and North Quincy. The jamboree proved a great success and was witnessed by a capacity crowd of about 6,000 people. Quincy emerged the victor in its game by downing Abington, 6 to 0, with the lone touch- down made by Gavton Salvucci. Thus Quincy confidently awaited the opening game with Brockton. The Blue and White followers were doomed to disappointment, however, for when the smoke of the battle had cleared away on the following Saturday. Brockton had ground out a 12 to 0 victory. The Quincy followers trooped deso- lately back to Quincy. This defeat was nothing of which to be ashamed, as it was administered by a team which later went on to an undefeated season and to the honor of being one of the best Class A football teams in Eastern Massachusetts. Quincy snapped back, though. A week later the boys handed Class B champs, Brookline, their only defeat of the season, as Quincy pulled a 6 to 0 victory out of the hat in the final minutes of the game with a touchdown pass play. Once started, the Granite boys could not be stopped (we had our fingers crossed about that school at the other end of the city), and they rolled over a weak Cambridge Latin team to the tune of 28 to 0. They followed this by beating Braintree. 27 to 7. and rival Weymouth, 26 to 0. New Bedford held them to a 6 to 6 tie, but Rindge Tech fell. 33 to 0. When Newton was beaten. 13 to 0. another taste of sweet revenge was enjoyed and everything was in readiness for our prime objective—North Quincy! Nothing, we thought, could stop us from giving North a sound whitewashing. Alas and alack! we figured without the power of Mother Nature, Old Man Weather, and the eternal luck of the so-called North Quincy Raiders. page sixty-two The chief characteristic of Turkey Day, 1945, was rain, rain, and more rain! It started raining early in the morning and eased up at only scattered intervals. Because of a mixup among school officials the game was not postponed, but was played in a sea of mud. North scored a touchdown on the kickoff, which left Quincy suffering a mental lapse. North subsequently won the game, 7 to 0. Quincy’s power was useless in the rain and the mud, and neither team could do much more than try to buck through its opponent’s line. So for the second straight year Quincy suffered humiliation on Thanksgiving Day from its city rival. The team deserves great credit for its otherwise great season by finishing with a record of six wins, two losses, and one tie. Boys on the squad who earned their letters were Backs: Captain Lou Marini, Gayton Salvucci, A1 Me Kim, Nick Belezos, Dick O’Brien, Carl Leone, and Mike Iacobucci; Ends: Clarence Bennett, Russell Reinhalter, Lou Cugini, and Larry Suk; Tackles: Walter Bergman, Fred Haddad, Dick Kingston, and Harold Stewart; Guards: Gordon Maver, Paul Sullivan, and Jack Brady; Centers George Papile and Hoover Wong: and Manager, William Warner. High scorers for the team were Edward Needel, Captain George Papile and John Killilea. A1 McKim and Bob MacKinnon were other starting players. Lou Marini and William DeSantis also saw plenty of action. The J-V team won nine games and lost three. Outstanding players here were Andy Pasquale, Gus Russo and Carl Roy. In the fust game of the season Quincy Varsity defeated Hingham by the close score of 11 to 10. Following this. North Quincy was likewise beaten by one point. 29-28. The third game found Quincy suffering a bad day, and the game was lost to Everett at the latter's gym, 29-27. The fourth game was a different story. Quincy showed good form in trouncing New Bedford, 28-20. After a 28 to 23 setback at Brockton, the Blue and White hoopsters really hit their stride and defeated Weymouth, 38-28: Mission High of Roxbury. 31-26: Weymouth again, 51-33. and Mission again. 30-29. I hc next game was the Boston Garden affair. Several hundred Quincy fans watched their team go down to defeat at the hands of Reading to the tune of 34-24. I'he following game was also bad news, as the New Bedford team failed to play the perfect host and trounced Quimv, 38 to 26, for the Blue and White’s worst beating of the season. Coming back home, the Granite boys mauled Hingham, 45 to 19, and then lost to North Quincy. 22 to 20. Brockton was entertained on Washington’s Birthday and was so delighted at being invited to Quincy that the visiting team went home that evening with a 23 to 20 victory. So ended a most successful season as a whole for Quincy High and for Coach MacLean as testified by the hundreds of enthusiastic fans who followed the team from game to game and sent cheers to the rafters at the many opportunities offered by the well-trained team. page sixty-three BASKETBALL SCORES varsity 2—Quincy 11, 8— Quincy 29. 11— Quincy 27. 15—Quincy 28. 18—Quincy 23, 22—Quincy 38. 25—Quincy 31. 29—Quincy 31.

The season was unusual in that close games were the rule instead of the exception. Quincy scored a total of 403 points to the opposition’s 367. Only three teams were able to score more than 29 points against the Quincy team, and no team scored more than 38 points against Quincy. The team held its top-flight opposition to an average of 26 points while earning one of 29 points for itself. Among the opposing teams were three which later took part in the post- season Tech Tourney held at the Boston Garden. These teams were Brockton, New Bedford, and Everett. Quincy’s trip to the Boston Garden during the season proved disastrous, as the boys were deleated there by a plucky Reading team. The 1946 season also marked the return of Coach Munroe MacLean from the United States Navy and the task of moulding a champion team from a squad which included only one veteran from the 1945 starting team. To make ii doubly difficult, the boys had to adapt themselves to a different style of basketball. Whereas they had used a fast-breaking, quick-scoring style in 1945, they accus- tomed themselves to a slow-weaving style in 1946. page sixty-seven Autographs ( h - , Aa y wp A r' , v 1 -“ A) ,v% sS V - £ - ) JU a t -s- Left to tight: Marjorie Harve .

The Indian flexed his arms with relief and dropped stiffly from the Pony’s back. Must be graduation time again,” he observed, stretching his sore muscles. I’ll miss the Class ol ’46.” The Pony whinnied in disgust. “You say that every year,” he remarked. But this class! Artists, musicians, athletes! There’ll never be such an out- standing class again!” “There will be, and is!” the Pony snorted. ” ’47.” 47! Humph! What have they done? In athletics, for instance?” How about their grid stars. Wally Bergman, Carl Leone, Paul Sullivan, and Dick O’Brien?” the Pony demanded, pawing impatiently at his pedestal. Look at the basketball team—Cookie Xeedcl, Giffy McKinnon, Hal Honkalehto, and Bill Vargus. And in baseball they can boast of Dutch Holland and Warren Mills.” Well—uh—they’ll never have ’4G’s school spirit,” the Indian asserted stoutly. “Look at the facts, my fine feathered friend. Seven of the ten cheerleaders are juniors: Marylyn Craig, Clara Marcucci, Barbara Neill, Bill Bleaklev, Sonny Person, Roy Yocrger, and Stan Zanoti. What more do you want?” They may have physical prowess, the Indian admitted dubiously, but in artistic talents—” Talents!” his equine companion interrupted. Have you never heard John Hornsey play the piano—or Carol Parker? You know Orfeo Salvucci and jimmy Rago played at the New England Festival in New Britain.” The Indian groped for words, but the Pony continued before he could speak. “Robert Barry, '47, designed the Golden Rod cover, and the window for the Chirstmas Pageant.” The Pony was working himself into a lather. “Speaking of the Pageant. I'd like to remind you that the readers, Pauline Sisto and Sherman Kempter, were juniors, as were many of the cast.” Yes, but have the juniors any leaders? the Indian argued. Their officers are Bob Holland, Ruth Hayes, Dick O'Brien and Marjorie Harvey, and you have the audacity to ask if they have leaders! Why, after the Student Council bond drive, Charles Harford, ’47, was temporary assistant prin- cipal.” The Indian thought for a moment, then leaped dcftlv back onto the Ponv. He readjusted his headdress and, just before lifting his head and extending his arms once more, murmured shrewdly, They’ve lived with 46. The Pony winked knowingly. Marilyn McMillan We are the sophomore class, and are proud of it. Although we are now the infants, just watch us grow. When we first made our appearance, you were doubtful, and so were we. Never will we forget how we felt on that first day. While outwardly we were trying to appear independent, inwardly we were convincing ourselves that Quincy High School was not as terrible as it looked. Oh! those corridors and too numer- ous stairways! In spite of the traffic officers, we went to 103 by way of 301. How- ever. those dreaded days were soon over, and we became settled. What role do we play in the school today? First, sports. Al Halloran and Dick Salvaggio were our outstanding representatives on football. We are proud of the fact that so many sophomores have supported Quincy's teams and have joined numerous clubs, such as rifle and bowling. Running up to 317, we are eager to note how things are progressing in the art department. (Maybe we shouldn't say this, since we're new here, but may we suggest escalators?) On our way up we pass the lab. where Eric stands, solemnly guarding the many inhabitants of 306. In 317 we find, among the bottles of paint, at least fifteen sophomores who show outstanding ability, as well as orig- inality, in art. Many minutes after the closing ot school, we visit the members of the music department. We find, sitting behind their instruments, the members of the band and orchestra, which include approximately twelve sophomores. In the distance we hear the (dee Club, represented by eighteen sophomores, which is more than average, since the (dee Club numbers forty-five. Incidentally, the class of '48 can boast of three students in Chapel Choir, namely, Patricia I-idler. Hob Manfev. and Malcolm MacPhcrson. Scholastically speaking, we announce ten students on high honors, and at last eightv-five on the honoi roll. Finally, we have a flair for politics. In the student council we are represented by Ted Lutz and Viola Chcradi. We hail, with pride, our class officers: Dave Montani, president: Ruth Campbell, vice-president; Viola Gheradi, secretary; and John Vignone, trade department, treasurer. As we said before, we are growing. Do you agree? Barbara Small Sally Roy Senior Class Officers Left to right: Margaret Johnson. Roy Colby.
