H. S. doesnit seem to have so many outside activities as it ought to have. To be sure we do have basketball and an occasional play, but that's all. When bas- ketball isn't in full swing, time hangs heavy ,on our hands. So, why not start a few clubs? Oh, I know, that word club sounds stuffy, like a sewing circle. How- ever, handled in the right manner, clubs can be fun. Many students are interested in Pho- tography. This is shown by the number of snapshots passed around during open- ing exercises and by the number of stu- dents who attended the lecture at Luce's Studio on Career Day. Under the guid- ance of some older person, also interested in photography and having some experi- ence, these students might form a Carn- era Club. Members of this club could learn not only how to take good pictures, but also how to develop them. Certainly, Rangeley offers a great deal of subject matter, especially for scenic pictures, snow, mountains, lakes, etc. Contests might be held for the best picture. Another club could be formed for the skaters. Since we have our own rink, why not put it to use? We have many good skaters in school, and with a little practice and cooperation something could really be done. Rangeley plans an annual winter carnival. This club could be part of it. Perhaps some hockey for the boys would liven things up. A skating dance would be novel and fun. Skiers too could have their club. They might try to perfect their form in jump- ing and racing. Then they, like the skat- ers, could be a part of the winter carnival. In spring and fall a fishing club would be perfect. A member of this club could learn the art of fly-casting and fiy-tying. Certainly thereis plenty of opportunity here in Rangeley for this sort of club. A writing club would help us better our style of writing. It could also be a source of revenue. A weekly paper could be written, printed, and sold, and the cost would be low. I believe that in bygone years, R. H. S. did have just such a paper. The possibilities are unlimited. With a little imagination, plus a great deal of ambition and work, much could be ac- complished. Not only would such clubs as these be entertaining, but they'd also be creative. There's always the chance that some student might find his life's work therein! BETTY RUSSELL, '47 E ditor-in-Chief. CHOOSING A CAREER As early as the Freshman year, the student should start thinking about a ca- reer, so he can choose his subjects accord- ingly. Too many students leave this de- cision until their senior year. During the last few days of school, the graduate is often more perplexed with this question. Of course the main thing is to choose a career which will reveal a capacity for intellectual work, if one is mentally in- clined. There are a few tests whose purpose is to determine the fitness of the individual for a specialized field. Many students are likely to believe in the falsity of the psy- chological test. These psychological tests definitely do not give a positive and un- qualified answer to the question of choos- ing a career. Man is too complex for ac- curate and complete analysis. The mind is not a simple set of compartments but a complexity which varies at all timesg that is to say, the average person is surprising- ly versatile. Therefore the individual must make the choice for himself. Finan- cial and social pressure are definite ob- stacles we have to cope with. The student must be able to visualize honestly and accurately what his life would be like in the contemplated field of work. He must carefully study the prac- tical requirements. Many parents plan from the beginning for their children's career. If a college education is planned and the student has a mental capacity for continued study, this formula will enable him to make a good start in the educational field, but as for the rest of his life, let him choose for himself. Being forced into a field that the individual dislikes will slacken his pace of work and he will not progress rapidly. Do not come to a quick decision and in a few months find that the field of your choosing is not the career suited to your life's work. In summarization, the idea is to give your chosen career careful thought. MARJORI1: HALEY '48 The TATTLER A FEVV CHANGES There have been a few changes in R. H. S. during the past year. - Law and Economics, a course which has not been oiered for quite a few years, was added to the high school schedule. Commercial Law was given for the first half year and Economics for the remain- der of the year. The Home-Economic and Manual Train- ing Junior and Senior divisions exchanged classes for a period of six weeks during the mid-winter term. Much work was ac- complished by both girls and boys. The girls took a summarized course in Home Mechanics and also made end ta- bles. The boys learned the basis of Home Economics and learned to cook. The ex- change of subjects proved very satisfac- tory for both classes. Some new equipment was purchased for the Home Economic Laboratory, in- cluding a gas stove and electric refriger- ator. The Home Economics room was painted during Christmas vacation. We also have a new basketball trophy added to the collection in the main room! MARJORIE HALEY '48 SCHOOL SPIRIT What is school spirit? Is it yelling our lungs out to let the team know we are behind them every inch of the way? Well, yes, that's a part of school spirit. But it goes deeper than that! According to Mr. Webster, it's an enthusiasm for an ob- ject. All right, the object is school. We're in school for one principal reason- to learn. Therefore, school spirit is an r...- . -41, enthusiasm for learning. I don't mean that We're going to jump up and down with glee when we learn that we have to take certain subjects. No, but since we do have to take those subjects, We can try to learn something from them. If we waste our time in study periods and then do no outside studying, naturally our ranks sufferg we suffer too! Returning veterans say their happiest days were spent in high school. Almost all agree that if they had it to do ever, they'd really buckle down to study. Doesn't that prove anything? If you were a member of the basketball team, you strove to do your best. You practiced and practiced to perfect your game. Given an algebra assignment do you study and study to get the perfect paper? Probably not. Why? Because at the time, it's more fun to go out with the gang. That's not the way to learn! Neither can you read a chemistry assign- ment through once and expect to be able to answer all questions asked over it. Then, too, it's much easier to study a little at a time, than to have to cram for examinations. Some fellows seem to take the attitude it's sissy to get good rank- but remember, boys, for the most part- girls admire you for your brains as well as your brawn! High school prepares us for college or some vocational school. Every bit of learning we can pick up in high school is going to help later on in life. And it's up to the student himself to learn. The teachers can't do it all! ! BETTY RUSSELL '47 Editor-in-Chief .,-I 5- I Sevniofs , ,V , Q Nurse QTCAGLIGTN Q Ay-T15-'V Mechfavz rc, Lhwycr oc'-For I ' r W P fax ,N ,-.

Betty Russell, Gilbert Philbrick, and Pery- land Philbrick represented the class at student council meetings. We found that our original class of thir- teen pupils had decreased to nine. How- ever, regardless of the size of the class, I believe we can honestly say that we have had as much fun throughout our years at R. H. S. as any of the larger classes. Bennie Nile, who left school during his senior year in 1943 to join the armed forces, is back in school and will receive his diploma along with the rest of us. None of the girls participated in bas- ketball. However, Peryland Philbrick, Richard Ellis, Gilbert Philbrick, and Ced- ric Brackett more than made up for this deficiency, the latter three being on the first team. In March, the senior class entered the annual interclass One-Act-Play Contest. The cast, which included Betty Russell, Mabel Keep, Richard Ellis, Gilbert Phil- brick, and Cedric Brackett, presented Susan Glaspell's Trifles. We were unable to present the usual senior drama this year. However, several seniors will take part in a three-act play which will be produced in May. All four classes will be represented in this play. Class honors were announced as fol- lows: Betty Russell, Valedictory, Minnie Collins, Salutatory, Mabel Keep, third honor, and Richard Ellis, fourth honor. We are now looking forward to June, when graduation exercises will take place on Friday the 13th. It's a good thing that none of us are superstitious! We're all proud of what we have accomplished. However, I fear we'1l all have that old yearning to be back in R. H. S. - come September, 1947. MABEL KEEP '47 JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY The juniors began their year by choos- ing the following class ofiicers: President, Therese Turmenne, Secretary, Marjorie Haley, Treasurer, Greta Ellis, Represen- tatives to Student Council. Irene Allison, Jean Pillsbury, and Raymond Haskell. Both girls and boys participated in bas- ketball, those on the teams being: Betty Ross, Clydis Ross, Greta Ellis, Jean Pills- bury, Marjorie Haley, Buddy Haskell, Billy Johnson, Glen Campbell, Gene Sawin, and Duane Quimby. A Christmas social was given and proved to be a very enjoyable event even though the music was late in arriving. The presents Cwhich included everything from rubber 'pants to hair ribbonsh, were distributed to the accompaniment of much merriment. The One-Act Play Contest was held on March 21st, with our class presenting The Last Trip Out, our first attempt at doing serious drama. The following juniors were in the cast: Therese Turmenne, Clydis Ross, Ramona Oakes, Jean Pillsbury, Greta Ellis, Bruce Lindsay, and Gene Sawin. The annual Junior Prom is sched- uled for the 16th of May, when a good time is anticipated. THERESE TURMENNE '48 CLASS OF '49 This year school opened with the usual bang! It has always been the custom for sophomores to have the privilege of initi- ating the freshmen. That gives us our opportunity and we really took advantage of it. Probably our treatment was a little harsh, but everybody had a lot of fun during the week. At our first class meeting the oflices were electively filled by the most capable people of the class: President, Janet Car- ignan, Vice President, Betty Verrill, Sec- retary, Rita Porter, Treasurer, Natalie Steward. The Student Council members who were selected were Virginia Phil- brick and Warren Schildberg. Later in the year came basketball. Again this year Betty 'Verrill and Nat- alie Steward represented our class on the girl's team. Virginia Philbrick also won a position on the first team. A few of the other girls participated in basketball. Leonard Ross, Warren Schildberg, and Ar- len Wentzell were our basketball sports- men for the year. In March the annual One-Act Play Con- test took place. The comedy, Antic Spring, was chosen for our class. The roles were portrayed as follows: Elbert, Myron Her- rick, Ginger, Helen Nile, Blossom, Sylvia Hunt, Robert, Robert Oakes, Sam, War- ren Schildbergg Gwendolyn, Rita Porter. Our play was a great success, so much so The TATTLER that it was chosen as the winning pro- duction. All the class was bursting with pride because of this honor. It was decided that, instead of a senior drama, ag three-act comedy should be pre- sented. A Case of Springtime was select- ed. The six who took part in the sopho- more one-act play were given parts along with those from the other three classes. It is scheduled to take place May 20th. The school year is almost over. Many are glad, but every one of us has to admit that it has been fun. In future years we will look back and remember it with fond- ness in our hearts. Good luck to everyone in their Final Exams and I hope to see all of you in the junior section of the main room next year. HELEN NILE '49 FRESHMAN CLASS HISTORY Almost all freshmen enjoy high school until---Initiation Week. This year the sophomores thrust the following im- positions upon those being initiated. The girls had to wear skirts upside down and inside out, men's pajama tops, and men's rubber boots. Hair had to be done up on rags. The rags very conveniently stuck out in all directions and were at all times getting caught in something or other. The boys gave the girls a swell opportunity to see what the well-dressed Fiji Islander was wearing. Trousers were rolled up above the knee, grain bags were tied Q25 around their waists, and turbans and mis- mated shoes completed the outfit. For the One-Act Play Contest we pre- sented t'Cleaned and Pressed. Elton Powers played the lead as Eddie Elton, Alan Philbrick was Eddie's brother, John, Joyce Beckwith was Eddie's younger sis- ter, Betty, Rita Seeley was Mary Belleg and Pat Tibbetts portrayed Katy Sartoris. The story of this delightful comedy is as follows. Very much excited, Eddie Elton, aged 15, asks his big brother John how to handle girls, and gets all the answers. Eddie is experiencing his first date and is, therefore, quite at sea. Suddenly Ed- die remembers that his suit is at the cleaner's, and John makes a hurried call for it. While Eddie is slicking up, John and Betty have a secret discussion which culminates in their leaving for a soda, just as Katy Sartoris, aged 16, is about to deliver Eddie's suit. Eddie is forced to answer the door himself, and, seeing Katy instead of her father whom he had ex- pected he makes a thrilling leap to cover behind the davenport. Eddie, you see, is completely dressed, except---for his suit! Katy leaves, but Mary Belle, John's girl, enters before Eddie has time -to slip into his trousers. Trying to get her out of the room, he used the methods of handling girls that he has so lately learned. Our class was also represented on the basketball teams, with Alan Philbrick winning a place on the first team.

It was Saint Patrick's Day in the Morning and Margie was walking On the Sunny Side of the Streetj, down past The Shrine of Saint Ceciliav across Lo'uers' Lane because Evelina'i had said meet me Down by the Old Mill Stream, for I Don't Want to Walk Without Youi' and It's a Good Dayf' They met In the Shade of An Old Apple Tree.

FOLLIES The night of November eighteenth was a dark and gruesome one, and the one set aside for our job of grave-digging. The object was the grave of old Mr. Grainery, who had been buried with all his money and jewels. We started towards the graveyard from our little shack that was hidden among the trees in an isolated place very far from everyone. We followed the moon- lighted trail until we came to the old chestnut tree that was the place where we were to stop and wait for the hour of twelve. It was now 11:45. Everything was si- lent except the thudding of our hearts. Thump, thump, thump-11:50. Out of the darkness there rose a piercing scream, making us all shudder. We looked around, trying to see where the scream had come from. Each one was looking at the other, but we were all there-or were we? One place was empty-that of Mr. Crackle. We looked around the gravestones, try- ing to find a trace of him. Just then we heard in the distance the old clock strik- ing midnight. This was it. We slowly stood up and lifted our shovels and picks. Even the expected clanging of these made us jump. We stood around our leader for instructions. Now, Green, you will remove the stone and make sure you do it qui-What was that? I-it s-s-sounded like a groan! Oh, you're just nervous, spoke some- one. Well let's get it over with. I donlt like this kind of business. sh-sh-- someone's coming, said Mem- mer. Everyone get behind those stones and make no noise. Everyone was in safety except Green, who lay in the soft brown dirt where he had stumbled over his shovel. He lay inert, not daring to breathe. The foot- steps were coming closer. Soon someone was standing over him, but he did not stir. In the moonlight Green could see another man with a long shallow face. The cheekbones were high, and his eye- sockets were empty! Green moved his eyes slightly to get a better view. He saw the other man's hands coming for his throat. He dared not move. His breath came in short gasps. He could now see a knife-his heart was thudding and pound- ing, sounding like a war drum. He thought death was near, but in the dis- tance he heard another noise. Who could it be? Listen tomorrow, folks, for the conclus- ion of this thrilling drama. Will they fin- ally get Mr. Grainery's coffin dug up? And what will happen to Mr. Green? And where is Crackle? Make sure you listen tomorrow, but in the meantime, don't forget: Try Dr. Krayne's Linament for that tired aching feeling caused by that run-down system of yours! MINNIE COLLINS '47 ON WRITING AN ESSAY Writing an essay is a very serious busi- ness. Some people take it so seriously, in fact, that they earn their bread and oleo that way-but for the most part, students like myself have to be told in no uncertain terms that an essay must be written for the next assignment. After you have ceased groaning over your ill-luck, the first thing to do is to ask yourself what an essay is. You may have studied them for a week and still not know. In that case, just write a short p The TATTLER p story and pretend that you understood the assignment was to be a short story. Next-the subject. An essay can be- and-is written about anything from The Most Interesting Bird I Ever Met to The Art of Sleeping In Class. You have an unlimited choice since your essay is to be on the humorous side. What? You're not in a humorous mood after having seen the results of those semester examina- tions? I can't say that I blame you, but you might write about Why Mothers Grow Gray! Now that you have your theme picked out, your task is almost finished. At this point ,though, I advise a super-special Dagwood sandwich-to nourish the gray matter, of course! While disposing of this and wishing that Richard would hur- ry and open the door, you might decide that your essay can wait until tomorrow. Oh, but it can't! Once you have an idea, hold onto it. Ideas are rather elusive, and tomorrow may Hnd you doing just what I am now-writing an essay about writing an essay-because I forgot my better idea! BETTY RUSSELL '47 THE SINGULAR INCIDENT AT 32 LAURENSTON GARDENS It was another one of those foggy nights for which London is famous. As I sat reading in my study, I was startled by the loud ringing of the door bell. It was a messenger with a telegram, which bore but this one sentence: Dear J ---- Please come as soon as possible A ..... I glanced at the clock. It was 10:15. Why would he want to see me at this hour of the night? I hardly knew him, and had been to his house only twice in my life, These thoughts were running through my mind as I was putting on my hat and coat. As I was locking the door, I heard a hansom rattle down the street. I soon hailed it and told the driver, H32 Lauren- ston Gardens. Then we went rattling off through the fog, and I soon lost all track of our whereabouts. It must have been after eleven when we stopped in front of the rambling old house that marked 32 Laurenston Gar- dens. It appeared to have been built during the Victorian period, and to-night, the way the shadows were cast, it resembled some huge monster. A single light, burn- ing in the study, threw upon the scene an eerie glow, like a warning beacon. I boldly mounted the steps and knocked upon the door. Nothing happened. Suddenly a cold chill went up my spine. Here I was alone, in an unfamiliar section of London. I knocked again, louder this time, but still nothing happened. I turned the knob, and as the door op- ened freely, I went in. The first door on the right was the study, where I had seen the light burning, and I thought probably that A ----- would be in there. When I-opened the door, the first thing that I saw was A ----- , or rather what was left of him, lying on the floor. Where his head should have been, there was nothing but a pool of blood, and protruding from his chest was a long service sword. His head was mounted on the end of the sword, where the handle should have been. His eyes were bulging out of their sockets, and on his face was a look of agony that I shall never forget. There appeared signs of a violent struggle, but the murderer had left no clue. I was about to call a constable when a horrible thought struck me. Suppose they think that I had killed him? My brow was feverish now. Several people knew that I was here: the hansom driver, the man at the dispatch office, ...,.. who else? IVFV mind was racing. What was I to do? What was I doing here in the first place? Who had sent the telegram? Why? Suddenly my thoughts were interrup- ted bv a loud banging on the door. I looked out of the window. I broke out in a cold sweat .... it was a constable. What was he doing here? Had one of the neigh- bors complained? For one awful moment I stood there. It seemed like ages. When was he going to discover that the door was unlocked. Then - the - doorknob - turned. I could- n't move. It was as if I were in a trance. :iz :le sc :Ei :It As if by a stroke of lightning I found myself in my study, sitting in my favorite chair. You say you dreamed this last night? asked Inspector Caldwell, as he finished his tea. Why, yes, Tom. How did you know? I asked. The TATTLER A It is very odd, said he, but a murder occurred at 32 Laurenston Gardens last night, and it was just as you have de- scribed it. FINIS by ROBERT E. OAKES '49 ' THE YOUNGER GENERATION What is the younger generation coming to?'i is a remark often quoted by our su- periors. Somehow they just don't seem to realize that times are changing. They may give the excuse that times never changed so quickly when they were young. They don't stop to realize that the world is not only still growing, but is also developing twice as fast each year. By the time our children are our ages, we shall no doubt see a much greater change than our parents see in us. But I think we'll realize that it is natural and not complain. Let us look upon the situation from the point of view of the younger set. Moth- ers complain because daughters wear sloppy', looking clothing and let their hair get stringy. They think jive-talk is nonsense and they wonder why there aren't more broken necks caused by jit- terbugging. They say we're ruining the whole art of beautiful dancing. I don't think they ever stop to consider comfort. How could we relax in starched skirts and neatly piled hair? Then there are those fathers who think it's positively unreasonable because Jun- ior wants to borrow'the car a few nights a week. He wonders what Junior would do if he lived back in the days of the horse and buggy. He doesn't realize that cars are as common as the horse was in his day. I'm sure we all expect to see our daugh- ters wearing clothing much different from that which we wear now. It wouldn't surprise me if the girls went back to bob- bing their hair for comfort's sake. No doubt they'll be speaking the Greek lang- uage in place of what is now jive-talk. As for our sons, we'll feel no different about lending them our helicopter or plane than our parents should feel about lending us the car. I wonder if our parents really don't understand, or if they don't want to be- lieve that there should be such changes for fear that it will make them feel that they are getting along in years. What- ever the reason may be, I wish parents would stop complaining! We'll grow out of this stage before long. Remember, we can't be young forever. MABEL KEEP '47 FLASH GOES TO THE DOG SHOW At last the long-awaited day had ar- rived. There in old man Johnson's Pet Shop was the sign: Dog Show, Wednes- day afternoon, 2:30.,' I glanced at my watch and to my surprise, it was one o'clock. I had just an hour and a half to prepare my dog for the show. I started tearing down the street for home when -Wham! I bumped square into Sergeant O'Leary. I picked myself up and started running with Sergeant O'Leary shouting after me. I finally reached home to find Flash curled up in front of the stove. I dashed into the bathroom and drew a hot bubble bath. Evidently Flash had smelled some- thing brewing because when I went to get him, he had disappeared. I whistled, yelled, and did everything to make him come out of hiding. Finally, he appeared around the corner with a look one his face that said, Did you want me for some- thing? I pounced on him, took him to the bathroom, and scrubbed him until he yelped in pain. Then I rubbed him with Mom's best turkish towel. As he looked a bit shaggy, I got Pop's electric razor and shaved him. Then I dumped on him some nice powder and some of Mom's perfume. I went into Sis' room and found a nice brand-new hair ribbon of brilliant red. which I tied around his neck. As I had to have something else red on him to har- monize with the ribbon, I painted his toenails with the brightest polish I could find, and thus we set forth for the dog show. Upon our arrival the door man was rather persistent in not letting us in, but a guy has to talk his way into and out of things, so I told him Flash was the may- or's dog. I donit think he believed me, but I guess he figured that if I could lie that well, it was O. K. for me to take Flash in. The show had started and the announcer was then calling for all entries for terriers. Numbers were assigned and Flash came fifth. I settled back, almost positive he would win. Numbers one, two, and three were passed. Four was considered and passed. Then came the The TATTLER great moment. Flash, number 5, was called up. Flash, looking rather sheepish, was pushed in by force. Then there was a streak and Flash was gone! So after all my work and a good spank- ing from Pop, a talking to from Mom, and a pinch from Sis, Flash had let me down. BETTY Ross '48 CHRISTMAS IN MEXICO Mexicans, like the people of Spain, ob- serve Christmas chiefly as a religious fes- tival. The celebration begins on Decem- ber sixteenth and ends on Christmas Eve. Posadas, or pilgrimages, commemorating the going of Mary and Joseph from house to house in search of shelter, are held everywhere. In each community nine families are chosen, one to make a posada each night. Carrying images of Joseph and Mary, they go from house to house, singing at the doors and asking permis- sion to enter. Meanwhile a festival is be- ing held in each dwelling. The pilgrims are refused admittance until they reach the house which contains a special altar- a diHerent house each night. They enter the house and Mass issaid. The mother of the family making the posada on the last night becomes the godmother and lays the image of the Christ Child on the altar between Joseph and Mary. Then all attend Midnight Mass, going after- ward to the godmother's house for supper and dance. Old plays, called pastorelas are also given in many villages. Mexican children receive their gifts on January sixth. A coarse, red earthenware jug, called pinate, filled with gifts, sweets, and nuts is hung from the ceiling or from a tree in the patio. The young people, blindfolded, try to break the jariwith a stick. When a lucky blow shatters it, they all snatch the bandages from their eyes and rush for the gifts. IRENE ALLISON '48 HONESTY ALWAYS PAYS It lay in the velvet case in the window. And who wouldn't want to own a knife as beautiful as this with its pearl handle gleaming in the sun? Johnny Long, a small, ragged boy of eleven years, wished that he could own it. But how could he when his father wasn't making enough money now? Johnny walked away from the window, looking very sad. As he went down the street, he met Jim Young, the bully of the neighbor- hood. Johnny told Jim about the knife and Jim looked at Johnny scornfully and said, Why don't you steal the knife if you want it so bad? I would. Guess I'll take a walk down and see it. Steal a knife! Why people got put in jail for stealing. He would never do that, not Johnny Long, no matter how badly he wanted it. Next morning at school he met Jim and was so surprised when Jim called him a thief. Thief! Why, what had he done? You ought to know, said Jim, steal- ing a knife like that. What knife? When was it stolen? These questions crowded Johnnyis mind, and then he knew. Johnny protested that he had done no such thing, but would any- body listen? No!! Just before class he was called into the principal's office and questioned by two officers. They had been told that Johnny had been interested in the knife. They showed him his handkerchief that had been found in the store. Johnny told them all he could, but they said they would see him again after school. He went to class but couldn't keep his mind on his work. Jim kept calling him a thief and that made him feel even worse. Mrs. Bradley, the teacher, called on Jim to answer a question. As he stood up, there was a sound of something dropping to the Hoor. All eyes turned and there lying at the feet of Jim Young was the knife! Mrs. Bradley told Jim to go to the principal's office. He turned and looked at Johnny and then walked out. Later, Johnny was called to the office and the officers and principal apologized for accusing him. The storekeeper who was there, laid something in Johnny's hand. It was the pearl-handled knife. That, the storekeeper said, is for being honest and sticking to the truth. NATALIE STEWARD t49 A WORLD OF ENJOYMENT Whether you are at a basketball game or at a movie, you undoubtedly have no- ticed the pleasure people around you are having chewing gum. Some of these peo- ple can chew their gum very quietly while others chew away vigorously, caring not how much noise and disturbance they make. Their jaws move continuously The TATTLER about until someone politelyf ?D asks them not to make so much noise. The faces of some people, while chew- ing, are changed considerably as the cud is turned about by the teeth. Once in a while you will probably hear a big snap, and as you turn to see what happened, you find it is only another chewer amusing himself by making bubbles. You look about the room again and you see another person with his hand stretched out in front of his mouth. Also you notice there is something attaching his mouth to his hand. You then see his jaw move and quickly the hand reaches to his mouth and then is extended far out again. Why, of course, it is gum! There are so many ways that gum can be chewed that one could write a book on this subject. Children who aren't ex- perienced in the art of chewing gum usu- ally end up with most of the gum on their hands and face. Nevertheless, they will soon learn how and will enjoy it as much as grown-ups. Another great sport is to watch people eating in a restaurant, that is, if they happen to be chewing gum when they come in. First they will order their food and either slip the gum from their mouth to the water glass or place it firmly under the table. They usually glance about the, room, hoping they weren't seen. Some wait until the food is brought and place the wad on their plate, and if they have dessert, the waiter will usually carry off the plate and the cherished gum. Of course, during the war these procedures were not enjoyed by many. People made sure they had their gum off the plate be- fore it disappeared because it then was a scarce item. Probably as you are reading this you suddenly remember you have some gum in your purse or pocket. So now you are as happy as the people you have been reading about. JANICE PILLSBURY '49 I COME TO AMERICA It was in February, 1946, that I re- ceived the first news that I had had from my mother in eight years. Living in Germany, I always hoped that I could join her again in America. And now my mother was trying to get me into that country. On June 6, 1946, the American consul in Berlin told me that I might go with a group of other persons to Bremen, the American harbor in Germany. In Bremen we iirst came to a U.N.R.R.A. camp, where we stayed one week. On June 13, we began our voyage over the great ocean. The ship, a vessel of the United States Lines, was called Marine Perch. We had rough weather the first few days of our voyage. Therefore many people, including myself, were seasick. But, nevertheless, all were happy at the thought of entering the country of Ameri- ca. I was seasick only because I had eaten too much chocolate and candy. Every per- son on the ship received tive dollars with which to buy candy, chocolate, cigarettes, and such things, which most of us hadn't seen for years. The food on the ship was very good, but it was much richer than we had been accustomed to, it made some of us ill. After a few days the weather cleared up and the sun came through so that many took blankets and lay in the sun- shine. In the evening we played cards or checkers, and read. One day I got a radiogram from my mother, but I did not have the money to answer her. At last the purser announced that we would arrive in New York on Monday, the 24th. The night before this Monday came nobody on the ship slept. All were very excited. At last, after the health officers had examined the ship, we landed. Great was the first View of the Statue of Liberty. Soon I was in a new home with my mother and father. HENRY JUNGMAN '49 h TATT LE NLE K Q O Q X f Lf! I The TATTLER Seated, left to right: Coach O.

After several practice sessions we started our schedule with a game with Livermore here on December 3. We led all the way only to come out at the final whistle the losers, 27-28. We won the North Franklin League trophy again by defeating, twice each, the schools of Stratton, Strong, Kingfield, and Phillips. We played other. games with schools not in this league, we won one of our games with Wilton Academy, but dropped the other there. We triumphed in both the encounters with Farmington. On our home floor the score was the same as last year only we were the winners. We led for the first half but were behind three points at the third quarter. We were tied at the end of the game and won by two points in a five-minute overtime. FRANKLIN COUNTY TOURNAMENT The County tournament was played on two successive week-ends, February 15- 21-22. Our first game was with Stratton and in that encounter we won 40-24. The second game proved a close one. We played Wilton and were tied through- out most of the game, but we came out the final winners 38-33. This victory got us into the finals. For the championship game our oppon- ents were the highly favored Jay Tigers. We made it a close game, but lost in the last few minutes. The score of this game by quarters was: Rangeley 8 16 22 28 Jay 8 18 30 32 We played also in a tournament held at Lewiston, as we had won enough games previously to enable us to enter the class C Western Maine tournament. Two members of our team was selected to play a few weeks later in the All Star Game at Farmington. The lucky ones were Richard Ellis and Gilbert Philbrick. In this game the All Stars beat the Jay High team 35-32. This is the first time that an All Star team has defeated the County Championship team inthe three years that this anual event has been held. Principal E. B. Tilton was the All Star mentor. Coaches and players participat- ing in this event were awarded woolen jackets. p The TATTLER A tally of the record indicates that we totalled 703 points as against 574 for our opponents.

BASEBALL We expect to play a few baseball games, as the weather looks very favorable and many are interested in going out for the sport. GENE SAWIN '48 AN ATHLETE'S PRAYER Help me to play the game, Dear Lord, With all my might and main, Grant me the courage born of right A heart to stand the strain .,..,. Send me a sense of humor, Lord, To laugh when victory's mine-- To laugh, if I should meet defeat, Without a fret or whine ...... Give me grace to follow rules, To fess up when I'm wrong, When silence or the other thing Win plaudits from the throng ...... When foes are tough and fighting fierce, And I am getting weak, Dear God, don't ever let me' show A broad, bright yellow streak ,,.... And teach me, Lord, life's game to play, Just one day at a time-- With Thee as coach and trainer, Lord Real victory must be mine. The basketball teams like to know that the folks are always behind them- win or lose. Our boys this year were always sure of one fan. The game might he in town, or in Mexico, the weather might be fair or stormy, the roads buried under snow drifts, or Hooded by Sandy River. It didn't matter-one fan was always there. He neither cheered loudly-nor said much about the playing. He didn't shout instructions to the individual play- ers. After the game was over, whether We won or lost, his only criticism was. It was a good game. The boys did all right. That's the kind of fan we'd all like to have. We take our hats off to--WIL- MOT PATTERSON, the perfect basket- ball fan. EXCHANGES We wish to express our sincere appre- ciation to the schools with which we have exchanged yearbooks. We find them very interesting and enjoy the new and differ- ent ideas found in them.

ELEANOR JOHNSON, '47 .Exchange Editor The TATTLER w Q-v 33 5' ab 'S HG.. 0 WG Ha The TATTLER DRAMATICS As the seniors did not give a play this year, the first dramatic offering came late in the season, conflicts with basketball prohibiting any program of this sort until March. On March 21st the annual One- Act Play Contest was presented. As us- ual the contest offered variety, with a program balanced between comedy and the heavier type of play. The real pur- pose for producing plays in the high school should be the development of the young people who participate in them. The element of development or growth is lost if just one type of show is the only kind which is produced. With this as one of the objectives of the contest, the follow- ing program was carried out. The freshmen presented the comedy, Cleaned and Pressed. The cast was as follows: Edward Elton, Elton Powers, Elizabeth Elton, Joyce Beckwith, John Elton, Alan Philbrick, Mary Belle Sturg- is, Rita Seeley, Katy Sartoni, Patricia Tibbetts. The play was very creditably done under the direction of Miss Priscilla Tibbetts. The junior class presented a tragedy of the sea, The Last Trip Out. Those participating were: Therese Turmenne, Jean Pillsbury, Gene Sawin, Clydis Ross, Ramona Oakes, Bruce Lindsay, Greta Ellis. The play was under the direction of Mr. Lamb. The play showed what a grim effect the environment of the sea can have upon the humble fisher-folk of the New England coast. The senior offering was Susan Glas- pellts Trifies, or A Jury of Her Peers? This deftly written drama shows the ef- fect of circumstantial evidence when it is combined with the human element and is justifiably suppressed. The roles were portrayed by Richard Ellis, Gilbert Phil- brick, Cedric Brackett, Mabel Keep, and Betty Russell. The director was Mr. Lamb. The winning play of the contest was the unique comedy, Antic Spring, present- ed by the sophomores under the direction of Miss Shirley Raynard. The success of this play depends upon the skill of the players in representing to the audience not only the scene, but also all the prop- erties used, the only actual ones permit- ted being chairs to represent an automo- bile. The keen lines of this excellent play were delivered in sprightly fashion by the actors, who scored heavily with the audi- ence. The cast was comprised of Helen Nile, Robert Oakes, Rita Porter, Warren Schildberg, Sylvia Hunt, and Myron Her- rick. Judges for the contest were Miss Pru- dence Richardson, Mrs Bud Russell, and Father Faucher. In their judgment the outstanding players for the evening were Betty Russell, Myron Herrick, and Robert Oakes. The sophomores were nat- urally jubilant over their victory, this be- ing the, first time since 1935 that a sopho- more class has succeeded in triumphing over the seniors. Rehearsals are now under way for the production of a three-act comedy on May 20th. Under the direction of Mr. Lamb, the following cast will present A Case of Springtime, a new and very popular comedy of high school life: Alan Phil- brick, Rita Porter, Myron Herrick, Betty Russell, Gilbert Philbrick, Sylvia Hunt, Warren Schildberg, Emma Bean, Robert Oakes, Helen Nile, Patricia Tibbetts, Rita Seeley, Lorraine Campbell, Janet John- son, and Cedric Brackett. This play is a school, rather than a class, product and should prove to be a most interesting and successful presentation. Proceeds are to be used for improvement of the stage. New scenery is to be devised and experi- mentation with the acoustical conditions is to be carried out. Enlargement of the stage and a new stage curtain are also included in the plans for attempting to make a more attractive and practical theater of the gym. The most serious crime in high school dramatics is the dual gymnasium-stage combination. Pleasing no one, it is an ever-present cockle-burr of irritation. The high schools of this country, otherwise so modern and model, are almost universally saddled with mon- strosities that are labeled stages but act- ually are mere shelves that hinder rather than help every dramatic production. Ours is no exception! RITA PORTER '49 Th TATTLER W HEX X51 E E mf 0 ff? x9 ff- ax if 2313? X My XXX S The TATTLER This is from an original freshman com- position.
