Stockholm High School, 1, 25 Girl Reserves, 33 Exit the Seniors Once again that slow moving line of grey caps and gowns moves up the aisle. This time it is truly we. With sad hearts but with a feeling of wisdom we realize that one chapter of our life, perhaps the most care-free and happy-go-lucky, is closed. These four years have nurtured our minds into maturity, and it is with a lsmile that we look back to see ourselves as freshmen grouped in that room of Wording Hall. Striwing to please and be noticed we con- tributed a goodly number to the athletic program. Our class president Bob Hender- son showed even then the fight and spirit on the football field which was to grow more and more through the succeeding years to give him the title of Captain. James Hayes took an interest in tennis while Evelyn Smith, Dorothy Flynt, Louise Lowery, Margaret Brindley and Gloria Hartt turned eagerly toward basketball. Evelyn and Margaret received well-earned R's for their efforts. Wilber Mclntire did thrings on the half mile in track. Don Adams, Frank Steeves, and Arnold Miller also showed promise. Remember our first speaking contest! Freda Moran and James Hayes were a- warded first prize: Bob Goode received second, and Marcella Stitham and Gloria Hartt tied for girls. Then the next fall we discarded our greenness and donned the title of jolly sophomores, one step nearer to our goal. We certainly missed Margaret Brindley and a few others, who did not come back. From Mars Hlill came Milton .Adelman to carry top honors in the speaking contest. James dropped back to second place, and Marcella stepped up to first place. Freda tied for second wth Gloria. Milton repre- sented the school at the U. of Maine Speaking Contest and the Montgomery 'Contest at Colby. 'This was a great honor for him. Gloria went to the Lydia Spear Contest held at Lincoln We did not lack musical talent for many of the girls and boys received their R's for Glee Club, Orchestra, and Windjammers. 'Once again Henderson received an R in football, and Evelyn her R rin basketball. We shouldn't. forget that our trio came into existance this year, also. Yes, we were certainly represented in the school. Our junior year found us marching steadily onward seeking new adventures and gains. Henderson was elected presi- dent, a post which he held for the second time and was to hold once more in the fu- ture. Bob, Evelyn, Gloria, Dot, Jim, and Bob Clarke received athletic R's. Clark, a former Sherman star, piled up the score on the wonderful secondary varsity bas- ketball team. Milton received top honors again in the speaking contest and went to the Montgomery Contest at Colby. Bob placed second. Once more the girls places were juggled around, giving Gloria first, and a tie between Freda and Marcella. The contest at Maine found Freda and Marcella there doing an excellent job representing R. C. I. Once more Gloria participated in the Lydia Spear Contest. The Rlifle Club should not go unmentioned for Bob Goode and Frances Robinson were two sharpshooters from our class: Fran had the highest score in the club. Thus our junior year passed. Now We come back to the present. Seniors are we! The end of our journey has come and we are termed dignified. t?l Kerwnin, Hayes, Clark, Watson, and Adel- man, received basketball R's. Captain Hen- derson won his well-deserved football R, along with Hayes. We're proud of our President and Captain! Jim is also a prom- ising candidate for first singles in tennis and Evelyn is right in there fighting also. Louise, Shirley, Evelyn, Gloria, and Jean Pressley, a new lassiie from Haynesville, were awarded R's for basketball. The mu- sic 'R's can be seen among many class members. Now the time for parting has come. We have left our imprint in R. C. I. and will carry its traditions with us always. No matter how far we may roam the purple and gray will act as an incentive to do higher things and maintain our ideals established here. Class Prophecy The scene of this little epistle opens in New York City in the year 1950 on a warm spring evening. As we drive up Broadway in an open air taxi we see several people who graduated with us from Ricker away back in 1942. First we glimpse Pat Swett leaving 2'1 . It is rumored that she is now a smart member of Cafe Society. With her is Norma. Lothrop, also a woman-about town. Right behind them is Lawrence Watson, a very brilliant chemist, and Jimmy Hayes, who although he has done some very serious writing, still likes his excitement. The next day, as we tour about the city we find Louise Walsh working as a sten- ographer and Freda Moran as a high paid beautician in an exclusive salon. We also meet another old classmate who is making an appointment in Freda's Salon. She is Frances Robinson, in New York on a bus- iness trip, in connection with her thriving dude ranch way down thar in Texas. Walking through ,Central Bark we find Evelyn lSmith, just returned from Borneo, where she has done remarkable work as a missionary. Upon questioning, Evelyn in- forms us that one of her old singing part- ners, Louise Lowery, is happily married to an unknown gentleman in New York. Having looked up all our old ac- quaintances residing in New York, we travel north to Boston where many of our former classmates now live. Bob Hender- son ls a football coach at Boston Univer- sity. We find Marjorie Byron and Marlloulse Murphy working as secretaries in the First National Bank of Boston. Freddie Anderson is the capable leader of a large Christian Association. Also dn Bos- ton are Ruth Carpenter and Shirley who are employed as beautician and manicurest, respectively. That evening, we meet Boll and Marcella who are on their honeymoon, being shown all the hot spots by Boston's No. 1 playboy, Jug Cleary. The next day we start north and all the way find a steady stream of Ricker grads. Dot and Ed are living in their dream cottage in 'Cape Elizabeth so that Ed can be near his job with the Coast Guard. In Portland we find Gloria, leading a brilliant career and about to be married to a very remarkable man. Farther north in Water- ville we look up Glenna Newman, who was an English instructor at Colby College and is now married to one of the professors. As we get nearer home the number of old classmates increases steadily. Joyce Eaton is married to the manager of the First National Store in Millinocket, whom she fell in love with while still at Ricker. In the thriving metropolis of I-Iaynesville, Lester Malone is running the general store and Jean Pressley fsingle thus farl is the community school teacher. Progressing on to New Limerick we find Betty Spain assisting in Frank Steves store and Fre- mont Hand is the owner of a prosperous farm. In Houlton, our old stamping grounds are many more of the class of 42 . Ruth Jeffrey holds a responsible position in the Court House, and Milton Klein is the pro- prietor of a thriving pharmacy. Down in Amfity, Mary Dwyer is happily married but Phyllis Adams is still undecided as to which one of her suitors to accept. Back at Ricker we find Bob Clark and wife, Marge. Bob is Varsity Basketball coach. Out in Hodgdon Floyd Smith is preparing his campaign for state representative to Congress. Yes, Floyd is working tirelessly on, with the office of President of the United States ever before him. Going even farther north we find, from her mother that Viola Campbell has married an- ex- plorer and is now residing in an lgloo in Alaska. Picture Vi in those Eskimo suits! Up in Montlicello we find Dick living, happ- ily married to Alice. Arnold Miller and Leo Britton are men about town in Monticello. A few miles further is Milton Adelman, who has become quite rich fin the dry good business. Finally, in the land of the eter- nal snows, Stockholm, is Mavis Wright who is a busy school teacher. And so, dear readers, you see how far the graduating class of 1942 has progressed in 8 years. Let us hope they continue to grow and improve in every way. a 'III u B 0 A 63 Il 5 85 - 5' E 53 ma 3 QE Hg 15 E' im 5 n 5 BE be Q - 35425332 wsefaaea camo U o easiizim E 5 E 3 s g E 2 63 x ES Q 4 do 3 W :I Q 3 C U goxw : 323533 0 Qvmlax 1 tag-agua...

Not long after- wards they elected their class officers as follows: President, Anne Bither, Vice- President, Ralph Titcombg Secretary Roberta Britton: Treasurer, Roscoe Tingley Anne Bither and Ralph, Titcomb were tied for president and had to draw for a high number. Many freshmen went out for basketball and were prominent in the class games. A few were also lin the minstrel show. Sev- eral have gone out for tennis and have proved to be promising candidatees for fu- ture teams. The freshman speaking contest was held April 27, at the Court Street Baptist Church. Anne Bither won first for girls and Betty Hanncing won second place. First place for boys went to David Bubar and second place to Robert Maxell. All con- testants did an excellent job. 'Their chapel program which was held after Christmas. consisted of a small min- strel show. Ralph 'Ditcomb acted as inter- locutor and the endmen were as follows: Hubert Hughes, Frances O'Donnell, Roscoe Tlngley, and Robert Maxell. The freshman class acted as the chorus and the special entertainers were: Teresa Willette, Bar- bara Simms and David Bubar. SOPHOMORE CLAS-S NOTEIS When last year's Freshmen united a Sophomores, it was found that a few of us had not returned but several newcom- ers were among us. The first social of the season was the annual Freshman-Sophomore Party. The greeting to the Freshmen was given by last year's vice-president, Roy Bither. The evening was spent in contests and games, after which, refreshments were served. The class officers were chosen as foll- ows: President, William Wright, Vrlce- president, Alicemay Everettg Secretary, Clanice McBrine3 Treasurer, Joan Hoyt. At the Sophomore Chapel a series of talks were given by the students on the subject, The American Red Cross. The sophomores are proud of their three boys who received letters for Sec- ondary Basketball. They were William Wright, Wendell Bither, and Irvin Foster. The prize speakers of the annual speak- ing contest were as follows: first honors, Donna Elliott and Cedric Russell: tieing for honorable mention were, Faith Ricker and Allcemay Everettg Lawrence Lunn and John Mock. With the coming of spring, lt is discov- vered that our class has many possibilities for tennis players in John Mock, Wendell Wood, .Donald Lunn, Lawrence Lunn, William Wnight, Roy Bither, Thelma Murphy, and Betty Holmes. The school year closes with a total of thirty-three Sophomores to haze the Freshmen on Bloody Monday . JUNIOR CLASS NOTES When last year's Sophomores returned to Ricker as Juniors it was found that three of our members were not among us. However, our ranks were reinforced by several newcomers. Early in the year we elected the same class officers as the previous year, namely: president, Joe 'Putnamg vice-president, Phyllis Goodwin: secretary, Eugene Byron, Treasurer, Marjorie Logfie. Many of our members in athletics. Six of our basketball squad, namely: tine, Marilyn Fleming, Phyll-is Goodwin,, Jean Titcomb, Deane Ingraham and Betty Jeffrey. The boys who played on the Jr. Varsity Team were: Joe Putnam, Eugene Byron, Wayne Russell, Paul Brown and Everett Longstaff. There were many tennis enthusiats among us, namely: Jean Titcomb, Lillian Lenentine, Phyllis Good- win, Marilyn Fleming, Deane Ingraham, Isabelle Richards, Wanlta Fournier and Elmer Ayotte. As is the custom, the Juniors under Miss Watson's supervision sponsored the annual Hallowe'en social. The gymnasium was decorated in keeping with the occa- sion, games were played, and refresh- ments served. Although the class is small, it has many talented members. Next year will be the high spot of a happy four years. were prominent girls made the Lillian Lenen- Ax gi' x ,. ..- Xy i xii x i ? 14 lgiggll 'Q' -231+ u Jw 'Q XX'-41 Y E00 x I if I Q x - F, ek, f 3' V4 'J if ff?

I r Cheerfulness If you were to judge by some people's expressions, you would think life a. lot harder and more discouraging than it really vis. Did you ever notice faces in acrowd? Some of them are sunny but many are either dull and expressionless or they bear a distinct frown. Those persons with the frown do not necessarily have more burdens and hard-ships than those who have smiles and an expression of goodwill towards the world in general. Everyone of us, young though we are, has problems. To older people they may seem trivial, but to us they seem very real. In a school like Ricker, there are sure to be students who have more spend- ing money or more clothes than others. But let us not be dissatisfied with our lot. We do not have to go around look- ing like a thunder cloud just because we don't seem as fortunate as some of the other students. It is not material possess- ions which count so much as personality. Our personality is reflected in our ex- pressions. A glum face certainly does not denote to a pleasing personality. With most of us, one of our chief con- cerns is schoolwork. We all worry more or less about exams, but there is no need to go around with a hopeless expression of despair. We should get busy and do some real work and do it cheerfully, not grudg- ingly as though someone is driving us. We owe it to ourselves to do the very best we can. It is not a good idea to put unpleasant things in the back of our minds, and shirk our duties ju-st because they may not be pleasant. We must think through our prob- lems. The point is, we do not have to air our private grievances and wear doleful expressions whlich speak as plainly as if we wore a label saying, I feel grouchy today because we lost the game last night. I haven't my assignments done, and Pm broke. The thing to do is to say, The team will play better next time. Get busy and do the lessons and resolve to be cheer- ful even if you are broke. These are not happy times in which we are living. 'There is no use ln saying, Oh, every thing is all right. For every thing is not all night. We have a war to fight. War brings destruction and sorrow. There is no sense though in taking an attitude that the wrong cannot be made right, that every thing is going to the dogs. We must havea cheerful hopefulness that there will be an ultimate vvictory. We've got to keep doing our part, and keep smiling. How can we expect our boys at the front to fight if we do not stand behind them cheerfuly and faithfully? At school here, let's try to forget our- selves and our petty grievances. Be will- ing to listen to the other fellow's problem. And finally above all let's keep smiling! Marilyn Fleming '43 Ricker Students A person entering the corridors and classrooms of Wording Hall at Ricker can see at the first glance the spirit and vi- tality of the Ricker students and teachers. He can see it in his surroundingsg the off- fice, the library, and in the faces of the .students a.bout him. The faces of the students who are mov- ing about from classroom to classroom do not greatly differ from the faces of the many thousands of students in other schools and other classrooms throughout the countryg but they show a great mix- of earnestness, ability, and happiness. earnestness showing in these faces 'is ture The the earnestness to accomplish the aims and ideals for which they are going to school and for which they are working and studying. Most of the students at Rlicker are sincere in their efforts to gain the knowledge and technique which will make them successful in future years. The abili- ty that is shown is the ablity to work with both their heads and their hands and to work as a group toward a successful end. The qualities of earnestness and ability are further proven by the Ricker athletic teams. In football, basketball, baseball, and all other sports the students at Ricker have shown a great amount of earnestness and ability, as well as a willingness to cooperate with their coaches and with each other. Sportsmanship, one of the greatest assets to man, aliso has been shown as an ever-present quality of all Ricker teams. Along with their being earnest and able. the Ricker students all appear happy. This is the result of a true friendship between students and teachers alike. In other schools the instructors and pupils may have a strong bond of friendship, but few schools approach as close as Ricker to the term One big happy family. Donald Taggett Junior College '43 Remember Pearl Harbor The snow flakes silently floated down from above and made a fleecy coverlet under which the little town of Greenville lay. The fur trees looked as if they'd been frosted with sugar icing. The stately elms lifted their stiff arms to heaven making grotesque shadows on the snow. Smoke gently curled from the chimneys of the humble cottages, and yellow streams of light gleamed from the windows. The app- earance was truly that of a toy town, but it wasn't. Human beings lived inside the houses. They worked and played, laughed and cried, just as you and I do. Greenville, like every other town was working with what small resources it had for national defense. That night the wom- en of the church were holding a knitting bee for the Red Cross. The men were or- ganizing a Home Guard Unit and selling defense stamps and bonds. Slowly coming down Elm Street, trudged a small boy and his inky black, spaniel dog. The boy's name was Roger and his dog's was Night. Gee, Night, .it's gettin' colder n' the roads' awful full of snow. We'll have to get to the church though 'cause if we don't we'll be unpatriotic said Roger childfishly talking to his pet, and stammering over the big wo1'd. Night, his long silken ears nearly dragging on the ground, and his short stubby legs stumbling in the deep snow, gazed up at his playmate with somber brown yees and wagged his tail as a sign of agreement. To the six year old boy, thinly clad in old blue nickers and worn red jacket, the remaining four blocks to the community church seemed like one hundred miles. Yet he plowed on, determined to do his part and be patriotic. Sometimes Roger would pick up Night, brush him off, squeeze him inside his jacket, and carry him that way. This pro- cedure was carried on several times un- til they reached the church. Well, Night, here we are, he panted. Let's go in and get warm. Vlfith a yip of delight the dog followed Roger into the warm building. There were many people assembled around a stone fireplace. Some of the women were knitt- ing, and others just wandering among the group talking. Roger's mother had told him the deacons and pillars of the church would be there. He didn't see anyone that resembled a pillar, but maybe the fat lady in the corner would be one. She looked very soft. I'll have to make myself small to get to the fireplace, he thought to himself. Just then a lady with horn rimmed glasses glared at him and said, You naughty boy! Get that dirty old dog out of here! Another remarked, Whoever let that little brat in here? Someone else kicked Night and pushed Roger back towads the door. Big tears were welling up in the eyes of the hurt boy, but he mustn't cry. He was a big boy and going to be a sailor. Sailors didn't cry. Juts then he felt a hand on his shoulder, and he looked up into the face of a strange man. A Well, sonny, you seem to be having difficulties, he said. Come on over in this corner with me, and bring that fine pun too. Bashfully Roger followed the man to a bench where he sat down beside him with Night .in his lap. Now let's you and I get acquainted, said the stranger. My name is Dick, What's yours? My name is Roger n' my pup's is Night 'cause he's so black, answered Roger. He's my best pal and came clear from Thrush's Hollow with me tonight. That's where Mom and I live. What does your father do, Roger? asked Dick. Roger bit his lip and then looked straight into the stranger's kind eyes and said My Dad lives in heaven. You see, he died at Pearl Harbor n' he's a hero. I've got to live up to his name and take care of Mom. IShe's the prettiest and best Mom in the world. Confidently Roger told his new friend, Dick, all about his parents and his ambi- tion to be a sailor like his dad. Finally Dick interrupted, But what brought you here on such a stormy night? A look of incrdeulous surprise flickered over the boy's face and he replied, Why I've come to buy defense stamps to help Uncle Sam. I get twenty five cents a week carrying in wood for Mrs. Gardner. Mom says Dad would want me to be pat--pat- riotic, he stammered. Dick gazed at Roger in ,silence and then said, Son, your father did a great thing for his country, and your mother must be a wonderful woman. Just keep remember- ing Pearl Harbor and you'1l never go wrong. It's boys like you and with your spirit that will make the United States victorious. With these words Dick took from his pocket a paper and presented it to Roger saying, This is a gift to the greatest little patriot in the country. Of course the gift was a. United States Defense Bond. Janice Robinson '43 Childhood Memories I remember the sweet saltiness of the fog on my lips, I still taste it as I did then when I came up from the shore. I can see the shoreline with its ledges and stretches of beach-gravel , hear the trickling of tiny freshets running over the slate rocks and the scrunching of seaweed under my bare feet. I shiver recalling the chill of cold water srlashed against my bare knees. I can hear the screech- ing of the herring gulls, see them as they weave in and out, milling overhead above the waste from the fish factory. I feel again the lonesomeness of a damp fall night, hear the comforting sound of the foghorn and then as if in answer the whistle of the tanker as she nears the oil wharf. I can look at my ink-smudged fingers and see instead the blue of blueberry stains. I can taste the lusclousness of the fruit and feel my mouth pucker at the bitterness of one lone, green berry. I remember the smell of hay as I helped tramp it with the nelghbor's chlildreng re- member the dusty smell of the same hay when it was used for litter in the henpens in the fall. I awaken in the morning and almost hear the cackllng and clucklng of the hens which I heard every morning in my youth. I can smell the pens, the ammonia smell of them on rainy days. I remember such things as the smell of tallow melting and old leather which had been left outside, the cold damp no e of my dog pressing against my hand, the piny smell of green wood which we burned in the kitchen stove. Again I remember the smell of my grandmothers house -- the sweet smell of spices mixed with the strong odor of curd sputtering on the back of the stove. I recall the sound of my grandmothers chuckle and see again how it started back of her eyes and shone its way into sound. Harriet McFadden Junior College, '42 Destiny Intervenes It was a cold, stormy night in late November that found Tony Gillespie trudg- lng wearily homeward. As he climbed the steps to the third-rate rooming house where he had been living since he came to the city, he began turning over in his mind the events leading up to this terrible night. Once inside the house he inquired from the landlady whether there had been any calls for him, hoping desperately that someone had answered one of the many applications he had filled. No, she answered in her harsh voice, and lf'n ya don't pay some a' yore room rent, I won't be takin' no calls fer ya, if there is any, which ain't likely. Yes, I'll attend to it. he replied hum- bly, stumbling up the stairs, weak from hunger, exhaustion, and hopelessness. In the privacy of his dilapitaded room, he threw himself on the rickety iron bed and gave himself up to thought. Let me see, he mused, it's just six months since I came to the city. In that time I have had two part-time jobs which lasted a week or so apiece. Nobody needs a radio technician to work anyway! God! I would take any kind of work I could get but there is none. To think that only six short months ago, I left Beaumont, Texas, to come to this great metropolis, thinking that by this time I would be sitting on top of the world! During his reminiscence, he had gotten up from the bed and was pacing nervously up and down the tiny room. Look at me, he said to himself dis- gustedly. A complete flop, a failure. He walked over to the broken cardboard wardrobe that served as his closet, to see if by chance there was something left that would bring a little at the pawn- broker's. No, there was nothing left but his shabby, threadbare overcoat which he must keep if he was to survive at all. As he closed the wardrobe, he glanced up on top of it where the landlady kept her meager supplies. His glance fell on a bottle marked poison. H'm, he said thoughtfully, poison. Downstairs the telephone clanged loudly, interrupting the crochety old landlady's supper. Dang it, she muttered to herself as she went to answer it. From the other end of the wire came a business-like. impersonal voice. Do you have a Mr. Tony Gillespie rooming at your house? it inquired. Yes, yes, croaked the old landlady ln her irritable manner. Out with it, what d'ye want with him? This is the W. D. C. Broadcasting Company where he filled an application for radio technician and we would like him to report for work tomorrow morning, went on the voice. Jlst a minute. boomed the landlady. I'll call him down and let ya talk to him. Hold the wire a minute. Mr. Gillespie, she roared. Oh, Mr. Gillespie! But there was no answer from above. Isabelle Richards '43 Scheme of Revenge The huge, black locomotive sped stead- ily on through the night. Its form could be dimly outlined against the dark horizon. Nearer and nearer it was coming to its fate. 'On board, travelers slept peace- fully, wholly unaware of the impending tragedy--that is, all except one. Travers sat smoking in the lounge car. He might have appeared very calm to any fellow passenger -- had there been one awake. But within him there was a tumult, for he knew what was coming! Moreover, the scheme had been conceived in his own brain! He was risking his own life, wicked though it was, to gain revenge because of his hatred for another! Would he be just- ified in doing so? His eyes twitched ner- vously as he thought of this. He wore the frightened expression of one who looks ahead in fear of his own fate. Suddenly, that fearful expression changed to one of irony. Would he, Travers, be Death's vic- tim instead of the one whom he intended? Would some wicked Fate decree that it was not for him to live longer? Foolish thoughts! His chances were greater by far than those of his victim's. Gradually now the train began to slack- en speed. Now was the time for action. He knew they were nearing the bridge which only he under pressure. knew was ready to crash He stood up and pushed through the door of the car to stand a moment on the platform. He reviewed the details of his plan surely and quickly. He had taken one big chance, to ride as near as was safe to the scene of the wreck, to make sure of his victim's presence there. Presently, with the agility of a cat, Travers swung himself from the steps to the ground below. His move was timed to a few seconds. He had barely time to coll- ect his thoughts before the inevitable happ- ened. Travers saw the sickening bend of the crippled bridge under the weight of the cars. He saw the horrid mass of steel. human bodies, and water after that deaf- ening crash. He put his hands to his eyes, realizing now the greatness of what he had done. He stood silent a moment. Then suddenly his eyes became glazed. Pm glad! he shouted hysterically. Glad, glad! And even in the din following the crash his mad, shrieking laughter could be heard piercing the night. Deane Ingraham '43 On Getting In After Midnight l wonder how many of us have ever stopped to think of the different methods which the so called night-hawks employ in entering the house after midnight. First, there is the per on, let us call him type one, who comes quietly up to the front porch and tries the door. Upon finding it locked, he doesn't try the back door as you would think but punches the door bell and remains on it until father staggers down and opens up. Then there is type two who prefers to avoid one of dad's midnight pep talks. This person gently tries the front door and upon finding it locked tries all the windows. Of course, thesd also are locked tight. Father al- ways did take unnecessary precaution against burglars! Ah, the cellar windows! Yes, there's one wide open! Isn't that just like those who are too precautious! Stealthily type two edges through the narrow slit and carefully lets himself down to the cellar floor. Now he gropes his way through the dark until he finds the cellar stairs. He stumbles slowly up them until he reaches the kitchen. What a re- lief! Of course this type two doesn't turn on a light! He doesn't have to do so be- cause he has done this so often he knows just Where to step. lAt least he thinks he doeslj Carefully he proceeds through the kitchen into the dining room and parlour. As yet he has encountered no opposition but walt! What's this? Yes, one of Junlor's toys which he forgot to put away. Does our prowler step on it? Of course not! He steps over it and creeps carefully up to his room. From here he lets out a sigh of relief. Safe again! At last there is type three who is the extreme opposite of type two. He has a key to the front door but he certainly doesn't creep up to it. He stomps up to the door and noisily fits the key into the lock. Does he hesitate about turning the lights on? Well, I guess not! First he clatters and I mean clatters out to the kitchen for a drink. Then he turns the radio full blast while he dlsrobes and hangs his clothing on all the furniture. After this procedure is finished, he extingulshes the lights and clomps upstairs. Still whist- ling he starts to undress tl mean put on his pajamasll At last he's in bed and things are once more quiet. What a re- Iief! Well my friend, which of these types are you? None? I didn't think so! Of course you are always in bed at that late hour! Dorothy Flynt '42 Nightmares If I were a psychology student, it would not be necessary for me to introduce you to my plight. For I would have within my power the ability to analyz and remedy the malady which seizes me in its grip many nights. In short, I am a victim of nightmares. To verify this statement ask my ex-roommates or my sister who I'm sure will be glad to give you their View on the matter. Because of that very fact I prefer to touch your chords of sympathy first. .After all, I feel the nightmare, while they only see it doing its dirty work on me. I feel it in its horribleness! Strange that each one presents the same situation, smothering! Sinothering in varied and numerous ways, ridiculous perhaps, but very much a reality to the sufferer. The feeling of security disappears: a sense of smothering pervades the whole atmosphere. Some intangible force seems to rob me of that life giving airg it press- es on me harder, harder. I scream agalin and again: louder and louder. The screams end in wracking sobs. I fight for my life, trying desperately to reach a window. Then I awake .partially to find myself pulling and tugging at a closet curtain, mistaken for a window, or on the floor thinking I was under the bed with a suit- case placed so that I couldn't get out. Always there is that feeling of something over my head shutting out life. 'Perhaps I am in the cabin of an airplane unable to get out. Ridiculous? Yes, but very real. dealing sledgehammer blows right and left, much to my sister's discomfort. Then half-awake, I cry quietly, apolo- gizing to my roommate for disturbing her sleep-remember just half-awake. At last all is well until the next night. If any psychology students or professors read this please straighten this situation out. Tell me why these night mares persist in caus- ing one thing-smothering and what ls their cause. I do not know, and my dear readers, it is most probable you do not either. Gloria I-Iartt, '42 On Relatives How boring life can be to the teen age! The time of youth when the mind is turn- ed to style, the keeping of that slim figure, and the thoughts of that last date. The long awaited for afternoon when the family along with your kid sister has gone out, has come. This is a splendid time to reminisce and also to concentrate on writing that letter addressed to Camp Dix. You are just seated comfortable with your heart plunged full into this non-laborous task when the door bell rings. Perhaps it is that new boy whom you met last night, and quickly you rush to 'the door. But Alas! The company is quite -different from what you expected. It is Grandmother, Aunt Lucy, an old maid at that, and of course one of those pesky cousins of yours. Grandmother has been living in the country and has come to visit for a few days. After a shower of kisses and How are you, dear? , What are you doing? , and God bless you, child , you bring them into the parlor. Here the fun or should I say torture begins. Aunt Lucy espies the picture of your latest on the piano. Grammie gasps as she sees that it is a uniform. Don't tell me you're taking up with a soldier! she exclaims. I'll have to talk to your mother about this. Why, it's a disgrace to my family! Then she goes on telling about this and that type of boy and not to trust any of them until I begin to wonder how she ever became so low and disgraceful as to get married herself. About this time Julie, your cousin, comes across some snapshots of you and Tommy. Oh look, Aunt Lucy! cries Julie. They are almost kissing in this one. You scream and rush for the picture only to get crit- icized for that wild temper. More than ever Grandmother is determined to have a talk with your parents. The next thing that these old-timers no- tice is your beautlful figure. Grammie says, Why, child dear, what have they been feeding you? You're as thin as a rail. Then you explain to her that is is the style and that all girls aim for a slender form. She speaks of the size they used to be and how nice the neighboring girl looks. whose one hundred and forty pounds make you shudder. All winter you have been growing your hair to the length with which you are so time out from cut off two or never received your life! have you come pleased. Aunt Lucy, taking her snooping, tells you to three yards. Oh, you have such an overhauling in all Aunt Lucy would like to over tomorrow evening. She has learned a new stitch in crocheting and would like to teach it to you. Nevertheless, you sim- ply have to refuse because you have adate to go bowling. Bowling! cries Grammie. Oh, oh! What's this generation coming to? After about half an hour more of antagonism. your people finally come. This is certainly a relief. Relatives! Relatives! How can their criticism and sarcasm ever be avoided! They disapprove of everything you do. They have a million questions to ask con- cerning your boy friend. Silk hose in the winter is vanity. I could go on with the list. but probably most of you have had similar experiences. Therefore I present a problem for the scientists to solve -- How can our old- fashioned relatives be educated to this modern world? Glenna Newman '42 So1dier's Return It was a cold, bleak, winter night. A northern gale was blowing across the hills and down through the narrow valley up to the door of a little tumbled down cott- age. All was dark except for the dim rays of a small oil lamp, which shed its beams through the broken window pane. A frail old lady was sitting in her rock- ing chair before a small, bright fire which played briskly about the wet logs in the fire place. Nothing could be heard except the howling of the wind and the gentle purring of an old cat which lay quietly at her feet. Her thin tired face was bending over a torn Bible which she held in her wrinkled hands. She was thinking of her two sons, one of whom had been killed in battle. Her youngest one had been called to serve two years ago. Six long weary months had passed since she had heard from him. Was he still living? Would he ever come home again? Oh, God, why did they have to take him? War was so cruel, so uncertain. Was this the way God plann- ed things to be? She opened her eyes and they fell on the words, Peace on earthy good will toward men. Peace on earth-- her son fighting to help ruin thousands of lives? Good will toward men--every nation striving to outdo each other? Thus the old lady sat thinking of her son, and little did she realize that two miles away a lonely looking figure was wading through the deep snow across the little valley. The fire was dying down, and the oil in the little lamp was nearly gone. The old lady fell to her knees, and there in the stillness of the night, she prayed to God to take care of her boy. The fire had diminished to a small bed of ashes. The light went out, and on her kneees in the dark the old lady still prayed. Suddenly she was aroused by a step on the door sill. She arose, and peering out the window, she saw a lonely figure look- ing in. Her heart leaped into her throat. Was it ---- ? Oh, God, had he returned? She opened the door, and with out-stretched arms she drew her only son to her breast, thanking God that He had brought him safely home. Evelyn Smith Love Let's raise our steins in a toast to love. To our sleepless nights and our exuberant daydreams. l, myself, being no great phy- siologist, cannot delve too deeply into this everyday occurence of two lonely hearts combined .into one great wave of passion- ate ecstasy. T do not know the feelings of this engulfing wave that causes sleepless nights, dreamy eyes. and chins and cheeks of blushing boys to become smooched with the war paint of their, as I see them, Amazonian companions. Thus warned of my ignorance on this subject, I partake to explain my theory. First let us take the story-book form, which to my limited knowledge, seldom happens. This form is love at first sight. Now a boy meandering down the street, notices a beautiful girl sitting in a parked out of state car. Suddenly between he and that girl's face framed by the auto's win- dow, there appears a beautiful scene. The organ of the church is softly playing and the best man and bridesmaids are there in wedding attire. He hears the beautiful words, I do, which in reality, is the mere cooing of a frightened pidgeon. Again his vision focuses on the girl and she smiles. She smiled! She smiled! Rushing to the car, he becomes acquainted with her and they have supper together that night. Home in bed we leave our meandering boy. Now straight walking with a quick step, he's quit smoking, drinking, and swearing. The magic wand of Venus has touched his heart without a second wave. Ages for this type are from sixteen to sixty. Then comes the very common species of puppy love. Before I delve, into this phase, I would like to say that I consider the word, puppy, very unappropriate, becau e dogs are smart in their belief that there is no love. They smell each other and take mating as a matter of na- ture's doings. Now puppy love is a very outspoken, unmodest form of l'amour. -In every school room, at every soda fountain, every place where young people congre gate, the unmistakable signs appear--blush- es, titters, holding hands, empty soda glasses, and fond cow-like gazes. Notes and letters in this stage are a very important element. These passionate, shall I say rather dangerous manuscripts, are over- flowing with 'Love and Kisses,' 'I Love You's,' 'S. W. A. K. 's,' 'Sweetheart's,' and all the other beautiful words of love. This is the type of romance in which the boy sees another girl and although he now is in the folds of love that radiate from his present feminine companion, two weeks later he is writing the some notes and giv- ing the same gazes and sighs to another girl. The ages for this form are between twelve to sixteen inclusive. Now comes thc college boy love. He been going with this charming, exotic for almost a year. He feels that their ments together have developed linto an en- has girl mo- undying solid structure of love now cased in his beating heart. He has dreams of a job, holding down ten thousand doll- ars a year , a convertible coupe, a little girl, and twin boys. He believes it is true love. When he visions his marriage, the orchestra is playing Here Comes the Bride as they solemnly walk down the aisle. But halfway down the aisle, the orchestra beats out the Tiger Rag. He smiles to himself, little knowing that he shall never marry this girl. When the wedding march turns into jazz, nine times out of ten no marriage ensues. This age is from nineteen to twenty five. Thus lightly touching on my theories of love, I end this. The L is for lamentable as it often is: O is for overdone as it is often written and fulfilled, Vis for vi- cious as we learn after we've left'the altar far behindg E is for everywhere because a fool is born every minute. This is my toast!! James Hayes, '42 Two Seconds to Play Come on Bud, shouted Joe Wyman as the whistle opened App1eton's basketball game. Joe, third string center, was as happy as the dark-haired boy leaping for the ball. He, a senior, had earned the right to sit on the bench and to cheer for Bud Coburn, sophomore sensation. He had made the team. Come on, Bud, muttered Joe Wyman tightly as Appleton, trailing by one point, made a desperate bid for victory. For three years he had watched from the bench as his team mates fought for victory and honor. Tonight he would take off his spot- less suit for the last time. This was the last game. Even as he spoke, Bud seized a rebound. pivoted beautifully, and dribbled down the floor. As he leaped to shoot, the opposing guard collided with him in mid air. Block- ing, two shots, shouted the referee, but Bud lay on the floor, his face twisted in pain. Coach Lewis looked at the bench, his face a mask of disappointment. Influenza A Ride on As I hurried down the steps of the sub- way entrance, I noticed with a start that my train was already in the station. I fumbled in my pocketbook. -for a dime while the crowd jostled and pushed about me. Finally I found the money and with the skill of a person accustomed to huge crowds, I wormed my way to the turn- stiles. Just as I was about to push in the coin, I was rudely pushed aside and a small boy hurried through in my place. Re- covering my balance, I Went thI'01lgh lust in time to see the doors of the train start- ing to close. With a burst of speed which I hadn't thought possible, I dashed for the train, and by a miracle, managed to squeeze between the doors. Quickly I glanced over the train. Alas, all the seats were full! With a sigh, I grabbed a strap and braced myself against the lurch and sway of the train. had robbed him of all his subs except third stringers. Okay, Wyman, make 'em good, he said quietly. Joe's mind raced madly as he mechanically took off his jacket. Three years on the bench, and now a chance to win the game was his. Three long years of drudgery and now he was going to play. Two seconds to playg ball's dead on the first one, droned the referee. Joe, carefully adjusting his feet, scarcely heard him. I'm playing: I'm playing, I'm playing, he said to himself. Slowly the ball dipped: swiftly it rose, hit the rim, and rolled off. He had missed! He would at least tie the game. Again the ball dipped: again it rose, hit the rim, and rolled off. The whistle shrilled and the game was over. Three years of practice for two seconds of action, and he had missed. He had failed. Carefully avoiding his sweating team mates, he walked to the locker room, his hair still neatly combed. Jean Pressley, '42 a. Subway At the first stop, I hurried to a seat which had just been emptied. I sank wearily into the seat for it had been a hard day at the office and I was very tired. Finally I aroused myself from my thoughts and looked at the people around rne. Even though I had ridden in subways for years, the people always appeared interesting to me. So many things were portrayed in their faces. Some appear happy and looked as though they enjoyed life immensely. Others seemed very de- jected and as though they had lost their last friend. Oh, Well, such is life! As the train stopped suddenly with a hissing of brakes, I realized that it was my station. In the milling crowd again, I stepped off the train and made my way to the street. Jean Titcomb '43 Dates When you hear the word date, what comes into your mind? For the average group of people, especially students in high school, I could guess. Nevertheless, there is always a possibility of getting the wrong idea. Are you against dates? It's a free count- ry and you can say yes, if you wsh, but I would11't believe yon. If it weren't for cer- tain dates, you and I would have missed barrels of fun. Just in case you might be interested in what Pm talking about, listen! Doesn't the twenty fifth of Decem- ber and the fourth of July always bring enjoyment and excitement for almost everyone? As far as remembering dates of outstanding events and birthdays of impor- tant people. I'd rather not try. Have you ever eaten date squares? Per- sonally, I like time some one date square? I mind, I think versa! This brings my thoughts down to what I imagine your first ideas were. Every time I hear somebody say, I've got a date, I begin to wonder: where, what, and when? There are millions of answers to this question. You might have an appoint- ment with a doctor, dentist, or one of your friends. I don't think it is necessary to say what kind I enjoy most along with the rest of the world. Since I have a date at ten thirty tonight, I'm going to stop writing, leaving you to figure out what kind of a date I have! Louise Lowry them very much. Every asks, Would you like a always say, Yes.

Mrs. 'Cook was very young and very good looking. At the time of the disappearance, Mr. Cook was helping his wife paper the din- ing room. He kept telling her that she was just in the way and before the papering was finished, she disappeared. Mr. Cook kept on papering until he had finished the room: then he notified the police. The police searched everywhere for her: de- tectives were all over the country, but Velma 'Cook remained hidden. Alan Cook became so tired of being questioned that he had a nervous breakdown. During Mr. Cook's life his wife had not been found. He lived to be seventy years old. After his death people would neither buy or rent the house because they believ- ed it to be haunted. -Some people even went as far as to say that many times a week they could hear Velma singing as they passed by the house. Ten years after Alan Cook died and fifty years after his wife's disappearance some- body bought the house. Of course the peo- ple that bought the house cleaned it before moving. One day while tearing the paper off the dining room, a secret door was found. When the door was opened, a terr- ible vision struck their eyes. There on the floor lay a skeleton. Beside the bones was a letter which went this way, Nov. 2, 1891 Whoever shall paper this room next will find my wife, Velma. You can tell the po- lice or anybody that I killed her. My reason is this, I read The Tragedy of Macbeth. Macbeth got away with his mur- ders for a long time. I hope to be dead by the time my murder is found out.

His line was intact with experienced men ex- cept for the two ends. These two positions were capably filled by Pearce, Bunnell, Pressley, Burleigh, and Goodwin. Titcoinb and Hall were the only veterans in the backfield. The boys put up great opposition against teams even though they had few reserves and little experience. The Raiders included in their schedule, games with Higgins, -Coburn, Maine Central Institute, Maine Frosh, Colby Frosh and Bowdoin Frosh. An example of the team's spirit was the way Luther Smart played at Maine. All the team carried the word Sportsmanship throughout the entire season even though victories may not have come their way.

Varsity Basketball Coach Smith opened the '41 and '42 season with only one veteran out of a squad of thirteen. Although the team was comparatively new material, the boys soon were formed into a smooth working and smooth passing qnintet.

Their fine spirit and sportsmanship was displayed in every game, whether it was won or lost. 'Fhrough graduation the team is going to lose many of their fine players, but these senior girls feel sure that the under olassmen who will take their places are ready and willing to make use of the spirit and fight that they have left behind.

Under Mr. lnman's careful coaching many good players have developed, namely: Captain Marie Royal, Mary Pomroy, Lillian Lenentine, Jean Titcomb, Evelyn Smith, Jean Pressley, Marilyn Fleming, Phylllls Goodwin, Dean Ingrahm, Isabelle Richards, Joan Green. Wanita Fournier, Anne Bither, and Ruth Fleming. Due to the fact that many of the girls' Tennis teams have been done away with, we have only one trip to Presque Isle, and one match with Houlton High School. We hope, however, to return victorious from both places. Boys' Tennis Mr. Inman's tennis team got out on the courts the second week of April to prac- tice for their season, which has been cut down due to our shortened year and gas rationing. ' Veterans Jim Hayes, Mel Putnam, Dave Roberts, Bill Wright and John Mock all turned out showing improvement over last year. Thanks to Houlton High School for their veterans Frank Rogers, Richie Lawlis Don Taggett, and Charles Wood, Mr. Inman has a well-balanced squad of racke- teers. After their down-country trip sev- eral matches have been planned with Houlton High School. Mr. Inman also plans to have a school tournament with prizes offered.

Gloria llartt. chairman of pro' grain committee: Pat Swett, chairman of poster committee. Many new members joined the chapter this year. During the ycar the girls inet at Haskell Hall and did Red Cross work. They also filled very nice Christinas boxes to be sent across to the British Children. Fon- tributions to the Red Cross and China Relief were made possible by sae of candy at llaskell Hall. Several interesting nieetings were held at which speeches of a helpful and educational nature were given. On account, of the shortened school year it has been impossible io give as much time to these extra cnrricnlar activities as usual. Nevertheless the Girl Reserves have taken part in a really helpful project this year and deserve credit for their fine work. K.. ., I n I i Front row: Henderson, Robinson, Anderson, Hartt, Wright.

Lowery, Hartt, Smith. The Girls' Trio The Girls' Trio, composed of Louise Lowery. Gloria Hartt. and Evelyn Smith, was known as the Sophomore Trio when started by Miss Isabelle Fairbanks in the fall of '39. They were heard for the first time at the freshman-sophomore party. Even then one could perceive how naturally their voices blended. Throughout that year they appeared in the various school func- tions and in outside organizations. Their big thrill came in singing a medley over station t', F. N. B. Fredericton, when the tllee Club made its performance at the Slllllfx time. The girls progressed steadily under Miss l+'airbank's able coaching. But wedding bells proved to be too great a rival and the girls lost their discoverer that summ- er in an impressive June wedding. The next fall Miss Ross took a great in- terest in the trio, and from there on the story is one of unquestioned success. A period each week was devoted to diligent rehearsal. Now they became more and more popular around town. Scarcely a week went by that they did not have an engage- ment. They gradually turned from the old time songs to popular numbers. This year the girls are a far-cry from the three who started bravely but dubionsly that fall of '39, Their numbers in the min- strel show far surpassed any former per- formances by pointing out the great im- provement in tone and expression. Need- less to say we are proud of Miss Ross's Fussy Three and hope that graduation will not separate them. Good luck, girls, and carry on! 1 i l g . l l Front row: Wood, Spain, Adams, Eaton, Robinson, Mills, Taggett. Back row: Titcomb, D. Lunn, L. Lunn, Green, Mr. Inman, Smith, Putnam, Lane, Brewer. Q Orchestra This year's orchestra is one of the best Ricker has ever had. There are more than the usual amount of students who are able to play some musical instrument here this year. All of the lll9lllh9l'S have been very faithful about attending the weekly res hearsals. They have played at several church services and at all of the speaking contests. Every social activity and school play finds the orchestra on hand. They make a fine showing at all of the gradua- tion activities and we expect, to see them take part in one of the finest Music Night Dl'0LZl'1l.IllS ever to be presented at Ricker.

Cal vin Green. s The Minstrel Show March 25th and 26th the Ricker Second- ary and .lunior College students presented one of the finest minstrel shows ever put on in the Houlton High School Auditorium. Both nights the house was filled to its Cap- acity. Ed Titcomb acted as interlocutor. There were many excellent specialties offered by the trio, Muffet James, Bunny Hale. Squirt Bubar, and the dormitory gang. Everett Belanger from Van Buren did two tap numbers which cer- tainly added a great deal to the success of our show. The Hodgdon Hot Shots which are made up of three Ricker alumni, VV. Rhoda, H. Duff, and VVeldon Smith, played several old time selections. Besides these decided hits there was a large and well trained chorus and the end men, who were: Charles Wood, James Hayes, Milton Adelman, Everett Rockwell, Cedric Russell, and Wilfred Virgie. They were exceedingly entertaining and did an excellent job putting across their jokes. All credit for this fine show goes to Mr. Inman and Miss Ross. The cast showed their appreciation for their tireless effort in making it a success by presenting them both with a gift during the last perfor- mance. First row: Hayes, Newman, Nason, Hartt, Adelman.

Senior Play A Connecticut Yank in King Arthur's Court was tho1'oughly enjoyed by all at the High School Auditorium, Dec, il. The cast under the direction ot Mr. Martin gave a grand performance of Mark 'l'wain's immortal story. its success was due partly to the fact that it was along a decidedly dit't'erent line from any play ever produced at Iiicker. Put an inquisitive young fellow of the 20th century back in King Arthur's Court and you have the ideal situation. Match the sly and alluring Morgan Le Fay with her accomplice the villanous Merlin a- gainst Hank and you have action. Picture a sweet, demure young maiden looking for a rescuer and you have romance. Imagine a king with a domineering queen along with a witty page and you have your laughs. The bravery of a certain young maiden of the court does not go unnoticed, Action. romance. and thrills are a perfect combination.
