After leaving Grammar School Por-t, we set sail, arriving in Roger Ludlowe Harbor in early September. There, Jack Mitchell 'took command of us. As Captain, he selected Lindsey Booth for First Mate, Shirley Edwards for Second Mate, and Ruth Strang for Purser. On our way through the forest, we met Miss Schuman who offered her services as guide. Being a native of -this land, she knew all its ways. Therefore, she took us to a party where we saw an excellent Fred Allen Show. We enjoyed ourselves so much we decided to prolong our stay for the Freshman-Sophomore Night and the Annual Girls' Banquet. After much persuasion, Miss Schuman agreed to accompany us during the rest of our journey. So, choosing new officers, Captain, Lindsey Booth, First Mate, Donald Mory: Second Mate, Ruth Strangg Purser, Margaret Horny we continued on our way. Entering Sophomore Lane we discovered that our funds were very low. To remedy this, we gave a party with dancing and fortune telling as en-tertainment. A return engagement of Freshman-Sophomore Night found our purse again smiling. g As we progressed, all the while drawing closer to Knowledge, our leaders resigned and Eaden Whiteman, Donald Mory, Joan Cathcart, and Leonard Cbcrg took over the responsibilities. Realizing that we were behind schedule and that we would not arrive in time for the Junior Prom, we rented roller skates and sped on our way. We again elected four new officers, Donald Mory as Captain, Stan Nosal, Helen Poinelli, and S-teve Heiser as his helpers. Then we started on our last lap. Using Leap Year as an excuse, We sponsored a Sadie Hawkins Chase and Dance. Climbing the Senior Slope, we stopped at the yearly Football Swing. In realization of the fact that we were nearing the summit of Mount Wisdom. where we would part company, we all gathered at the Senior Banquet. Soon after, we were guests of our young followers at the Junior Prom. Then, feeling that our experiences shoul-d be recorded, we compiled the Year Book. At last we gained the top of Mounrt Wisdom, where, with hearty and grateful thanks to our guide, Miss Schuman, we bid farewell and each one of us set sail for Port Future.

While gazing down on skyscrapers and twisting streets, we tenderly recall memories of pleasant schooldays spent in Roger Ludlowe. The Class of '40, my friend re- marks. It seems so long ago. I won- der what 15 years did to the gang. The quiet humming of the Pulos, Pinchen and Wright motors is inter- rupted by the sputtering and coughing of the one on our left. Hmm, Hashy always was a radi- cal, muses my friend, sitting up to peer out. Why it looks like we're going to land on that building over there. You mean the one with that sign The Dudko Destruction Company on it? I question. Yes, answers my friend, I won- der if it's old Connie. Look at the rest of the sign. We do everything from bombing the Empire State Building to melting your ball of tin foilf, s ' Too bad we haven't time to see him. The plane slows to a stop on the roof of a low building. Two mechanics are summoned, who turn out to be the 'two Rugg Brothers. They say they'll have the plane fixed in a couple of hours, and meanwhile we can walk around. We go down a staircase out to the street, and almost collide with a large Laska sign, Pol- lack's Poolroom. Beds five cents. Pool- tables ten cents with blankets. After visiting awhile with our friend Norman, we decided to stroll down the street a way, when we catch sight of a familiar name printed on the window of a modest establishment. Get your ears lowered here. Only twenty-five cents, plus ctaX. We have the original Heiser Hurricane Haircut. Also specials on manicures, wigs, up- per and lower plates, minor operations and football suits. CLollypops free to kiddies.j We stop in to greet Steve and meet a few other friends. The manicurist is none other than the former Marie Meeker, but now Mrs. Thomas, who between hands blushingly beams on Harry, Jr., busily snapping the custo- mers with elastic bands. The other three barbers are Harry, Sr., who has lost some of his schoolboy energy and mumbles something about a ball and chain: Joe Marko, whose specialty is giving the new Parsons permanent waves: and Merritt Johnquest, who guards the lollypops. Steve explains that he is studying nights to become a senator, because the little woman, Elaine of course, doesn't think a bar- ber has much prestige. After chatting awhile, we are at- tracted by a commotion on the next block. Hurrying down the street we spy a large crowd around the Mc- Namara Movie House, wnhere f'Her Jungle Love, the greatest smash hit since Gone With the Wind is play- ing. This thrilling drama is being portrayed by that well-known movie team, Muriel MacBride and Peter Piretti. Shoving through the enor- mous crowd we are told that all seats are taken, as it is Bank Night. We finally escape the mob and ap- proach a small store called Ferdinand Leavy's Flower Shop. Quietly enter- ing the shop, we find John filling the daily orders of Mr. Nosal, President of the Nosal Motor Corporation. We hear Ferdinand reading aloud, two dozen American Beauty roses, Stan to Gertie: two dozen calla lillies, Stan to Florence: two dozen gardenias. Stan to Lillian: and one-half dozen daisies, Stanley to -the Missus. Fred Schurk, the delivery boy, rushes in to get the free bundle of posies which Ferdinand sends to Miss Barker every day, in memory of old times sake. Then we decide to continue down the avenue, .when we see three couples walking toward us. Q As we get closer to them, we recog- nize Gertie Johnson Schultz and her husband, Ed, who is wheeling a car- riage occupied by two bouncing twin boys. . Directly behind them are Helen Foote and her fourth husband, a European Count, who are convers- ing in French. Walking sedately be- hind them are Lucie Walsh and Shir- L46 ley Edwards, laden down with bundles of groceries. Why Shirley! How you've changed! What are you doing these days? I ask. Oh, Lucie and I are running a boarding house for spinsters. We like the quiet type of life, she answers, as they walk on. Scratching my head I say to my friend, What fifteen years can do to a person! It has certainly made a new woman out of Lucie. I'm getting hungry, my friend remarks. Let's ask that policeman there where we can get a snack. I tap him on the shoulder, with due respect to the law, and when he finally turns around we see that it is none other than our old pal, Tom Gerety. Before we have time to ask him a question, he is pouring out a sad ac- count of how he was once a glorious sergeant, but was unjustly lowered to pounding a beat. And all I did was try to tell the commissioner how to run things, says Tom with tears in his eyes. Then he pauses for breath. and we have a chance to question him about a restaurant. Why not go to Nick Pingelly's Spaghetti Chop House? I eat there every day, and it's only twenty cents for a Blue Plate Lunch. Tom tells us. Wonderful food, too. While Tom is still ramb- ling on about his misfortunes, we ex- plain that we are pressed for time, and hurry on toward the Spaghetti I-Iouse. Suddenly my friend notices a bright red banner waving above a department store. She reads, Carrol1's Cut-Rate Cosmetics. We cater to Chorus Cuties. Why, I wonder if that could be Dick? I ask. Let's go in and see. We enter the building, and a hostess in a black satin gown comes toward us. Why, Janet Thomas! What are you doing here? I inquire, surprised. Oh, Dick and I eloped years ago. and I'm helping out in the store, so we can save money for our new home. ' But where is Dick? I ask her. Well, you see, Dick has to inter- view chorus girls in his spare time. Always drumming up new business you know. I Yes, we understand, my friend answers with a smile, and While she talks over old times with Janet, l wander about the store and see blonde Olga Fekete, demonstrating the new Flash lipstick, created by Kay Montague. Wandering into a laboratory room. I find a doctor wrapping bandages about the head of a terror-stricken patient. A nurse, whom I recognize as Ann LeFevre, is holding the pa- tient's hand, which he doesn't seem to mind, while the handsome doctor glares at Ann with jealous eyes. Why Bill Wallace! I-Iow did you ever get through medical school? I question. And what's that thing you're wrapping up? Oh, this is Norman Brown. You'd never know him now, but it's him, all right. What happened to you Norman? I ask. I was mixing some chemicals for my special complexion cream. It al- ways worked before. he says timidly. You'll be all right, Normie. You'll get a whole new skin when this one peels off, Ann tells him. Well, never mind about Norman. It's me you're engaged to, the doctor tells her in an angry voice. I decide to leave, so as to avoid be- ing connected with the argument, and my friend and I once again set out for Fingelly's Spaghetti House. As we leave Carroll's Cosmetic Store, we collide with Dottie South- worth and Janice Schwartz in the revolving door. That means another half-hour -talk about Dot's darling baby daughter, who has just gotten her second tooth. Have you heard about Doris Lucas' All-Girl Orchestra? Janice asks us. She's playing at the Hotel Ference in New York. Betty Picard is her vocalist, and Connie Bradley, her entertainer. It's the most outstanding orchestra of the year. Yes, we've been to see it, I told them. And have you seen Bill Swindon's Fruit Market down the next block? Dot inquires. Today is Bill's wed- ding anniversary and he gives away a free picture of Irene with every pur- chase over fifty cents. 471 We suddenly realize that time is slipping away, and bidding adieu to our two friends, we start for Fingelly's Spaghetti House once again. We enter the spaghetti house and take seats between the two Barberio brothers, who are busily rolling in the clothesline. Looking up at the wait- ress, I recognize another old friend. Victoria Miro. How did you know me? she asks. Oh, the gum sounded familiar, I reply, for I remember that she chewed gum constantly in Prof. Sleigle's class. Have you been downstairs to see our floor show? she inquires. Joe Youhouse is doing that sensational ballet creation, The Dance of the Daffodil. After finishing our meal, we decide to wander downstairs, and peeping into an empty room, we see Edwin Pfalzgraf, wildly waving a baton about. Hey, there, what are you doing that for? I ask. There's no orches- tra in here. Well, I can dream, can't I? he retorts, and I decide to let the pool boy have his way. Selling peanuts and cigarettes in the lobby is Norman Allard, and coming in for their noonday meal are Fred Smith and Paul Forstrom, co-partners in a wrecking concern. Seated at a table near the window, we notice Ethel Thompson, Lillian S-tupack, and Florence Ryzak, all de- signers for Harry Faux's Artists and Models Firm. We stop at Downs' Drug Store and phone the Rugg Brothers about our plane, only to learn that working hours are l to 4, and they have been out to lunch for the past hour. Step- ping out of the phone booth, the radio blasts in our ears, This is Station ABC. Hermenze's Pig Farm now brings us the famous Baron Booth and his Buckaneer Band. Have you tried a Hermenze Pig lately? With Ameri- can Pig Experts, it's Hermenze's, two to one! We now present Baron Booth, master of ceremonies, who will feature the life story of Howard Com- stock, 'the Stephen Foster of 1955. Mr. Comstock, who has scored again and again with his musical hits, starts the program with his latest song, Jennie With the Light Brown Teeth. After listening to Lindsey's pro- gram for a while, we are starting to leave, when Eaden Whiteman rushes in with the words, Everything hap- pens to me! My wife and six sons are all in bed with the small pox, and I can't even play poker with the boys Saturday nights. You remember Doc Cheney, don't you? he asks us. Come on up to his oflice with me while I get this silly vaccination over with. We take an elevator to the ifth floor in the Gardner Medical Building, and entering a modern waiting room. we find Carl and George, of the John- son and Johnson law firm, soothing the ruffled George Neverdousky. We greet the boys and ask them what the trouble is, and George explains that a bus driven by Red MacBride struck his Gravel Truck, causing him a severe shock. We should be able to collect at least S4,000, remarks Johnson. Yeah? says George. How much is my cut? Well, ahem, says John- son to Johnson, Well, George, we figured that since it's taking so long to collect from MacBride, and with the court fees and our personal fee, that out of the four thousand you should get about five hundred. At this moment t-he doctor's door opens, and suave Doctor Cheney comes out, with Charlotte Yovano- vitch, of the legitimate theatre. They greet us with surprise. e Well, Doctor, we see you are busy, so we'll say good-bye, we tell him, as Dot Douglas and Kay Duffy enter the oflice. We press a button, and the elevator comes up, with Teddy Kalbourn at the switch. On the way down he tells us that Shirley Lobdell and Margaret Morrison are also employed in the building as private secretaries. Teddy asks if we have heard the Very Rever- end James Rehnbergls latest lecture on the Evils of Nicotine. We think Jim must have changed a great deal since high school days, so we decide to see for ourselves. Boarding a Forsberg Bus, we travel f48 down the avenue past Shirley Garri- son's Tea Shop, where a large poster advertises Mallette's Muffins. On the bus we spy Maude Sher- wood, seated next to the bus driver. and Dorothy Sherry, with her great Dane dog. Arriving at Lobdell's Lecture Hall, we are surprised to find that Jim Rehnberg's audience is 9944-100676 women. Seated about the hall we notice more familiar faces, among whom are Gladys Dalling, Jerry Gra- ham, Joan Parchimowitz, and Flor- ence Politi. When the lecture is over, we walk across the street for refreshments, and stop at a big sign lettered Grandpa Gill's Snappy Garters given with each and every bottle of Tonic. Entering the store, we find Joe him- self. asleep among his bills. My friend shakes him, 'whereupon he jumps up shouting I'll pay you tomorrow, for sure! When he recognizes us as friends, Joe, with a broad grin, offers us free tickets for next Saturday's Gargle Contest. As we leave the store, we see an- other Forsberg Bus go by, carrying a Women's Club to a campaign outing. Katherine Galya, President of the club. and her assistants, Norma Johnson and Anne Nagy, are holding their meeting. On the side of the bus we see a banner, shouting in big letters, Oberg for Mayor. A short way up the street I spot Ellen Barber, looking demure in a yellow apron, and passing out free samples in front of Porter's Food Market. Coming closer, we hear Ellen saying, Give your kiddies a free sample of Bischoff's Baby Food. Overhead is a -large placard- Does your kiddie thrive on Doctor Bis- choff's Baby Food? The only Baby Food of its kind in the universe. Doc- tor Bischoff has discovered those fam- ous new vitamins, X, Y, and Z, and he combines them in delicious Bis- choff's Baby Food. We ask Ellen for directions for getting back to our plane, and thank her for the sample, as she tells us of a short-cut which should get us there in fifteen minutes. We start on our way back, but after walking for over half an hour, we find ourselves completely lost. A large modern building, occupying an entire block, attracts our attention, and we notice that it is called Body's Beauty Shoppe for Men. Thinking it may be our classmate, Bob, we enter and find him busily checking appointments in a modern- istic anteroom. Loking up, Bob breaks into a smile, and invites us in to look over his shop. In the first booth, we see Mousie Everts, getting his eyebrows tweezed while he steams off Weight in a reduc- ing box. Mousie exclaims to Jimmy Bonney, who is having his face lifted in the next booth, Do you know that I actually lost ten pounds last month? Well, you don't look it, says Charlie Strattard, holding his feet up for a pedicure. But don't you think I'll look positively exquisite in my new toeless sandals? There is no answer. J Wally Reynolds speaks from under his mud pack, Say, men, did you see Donald Evans go out in that terrible new hair dye, called Midnight Black? Yes, but it wasn't as bad as Dink Mory's new permanent, Mousie an- swers. I wonder what his wife will say. S Just then Charlie Strattard looks up, and seeing my friend and me, he bellows, Say, what are you doing in a men's beauty salon? We ask him for information about getting back to the Burbank Building, and he replies. Oh, my office is over there. l'll give you a lift when my pedicure is finished. Oh, aren't you having your hair set? asked Mousie. No, we're on a budget now. My wife only lets me come over here once every two weeks, you know. As Charlie's toenails are nearly dry. we hurry out with him to the car, and speed across the town to reach the plane just in time. Bidding him good- bye, we settle comfortably once more in our seats, recalling the exciting ex- periences of the afternoon. Our many contacts with old friends seem to have recaptured the happy days spent at Roger Ludlowe, which we shall never forget. Jean Merritt -Ruth Phillips 491 Cfddd We, the Class of 1940, not only fortunate and honored in being stu- dents of Roger Ludlowe High School, Fairfield, Connecticut, but also in liv- ing in -these United States of America. being in a state of perpetual motion, of sound mind, memory and judg- ment, do hereby declare this to be our last will and testament.

Alexa, . as a. uardify joofdaf Ludlowe's gridiron forces, under the able leadership of Coach Walter Hellmann and Captain Steve Heiser, had one of their finest seasons. Al- though only three members of the varsity of 1938 returned, the team demonstrated speed, deception, excel- lent blocking, and a potent passing attack. The eleven garnered 73 points as against 45 for their opponents. Five wins, one tie, and two losses comprised the list of results of con- tests. CENTRAL: Af-ter having scored on a pass from Nosal to Bischoff, Ludlowe was slowly worn down by a heavier Central eleven, which ended the season as the undefeated State champs. This contest, held at home, was highlighted by -the fine play of Steve Heiser and center Bill Haines. The Hnal score was Central - 20. Fairfield--6. WEST HAVEN: Without the ser- vices of 'Captain Heiser, Gill, and Pall. the Orange and Black held the Shore- men scoreless in the last half, after having two touchdowns scored upon them in the first two periods. Playing at West Haven, 'the -Ludlowites were defeated 12-0. GREENWICH: Fairfield, playing on its own field, saw little of Green- wich's Air Circus and won a well- deserved victory, 7-0. Haines' touch- down and conversion were the game's only scores. The tilt ended with Greenwich on Fairfield's 1-yard line, after having blocked Palmer's attempt- ed punt. MILFORD: Stan Nosal and Harry Riley displayed their ability to advan- tage at Milford, doing much of the work. Despite frequent fumbles after long marches, Riley iinally broke through for a touchdown la-te in the final quarter, for the lone tally. This was a hotly contested battle. f60 Q NEW HAVEN COMMERCIAL: Continuing their successful play, the men in Orange and :Black defeated New Haven Commercial by a score of 21 to O. The outcome of the game, which was goverened by the new Federation rules, was never in doubt. Gill, who converted after 3 touch- downs, Nosal, Palmer, and Haines, starred. STRATF-ORD: An upset victory over -Stratford, by a score of 14 to 7, added to Ludlowe's wins. Playing at home, Fairfield demonstrated power and defensive ability. Again Haines played brilliantly, as did Bischoff and Nosal. This was one of the eleven's finest performances. DANBURY: Ludlowe battled the Hatters to a scoreless tie, in Lee Stadium. Frequently reaching enemy territory, they carried -the ball to the two-yard line, while their own 40- yard line was never crossed. Nosal. aided by fine blocking, ran the ball effectively. BASSICK: The enviable record which the men from Ludlowe had compiled commanded that they be favored over their traditional rival, Bassick. As the final score manifested. Eairlield's all-round ability was much superior to Bassick's. Nosal, Palmer, and Haines gained ground repeatedly. The home team's scores, in order, were made in this manner: Palmer crossed the goal line after receiving Nosal's pass: Gill con- verted: Nosal sparked a drive which he capped by tossing a touchdown pass to Bischoff. These came in The first half. In the final period Haines recovered a Bassick fumble and Nosal soon scored. 6,500 people watched the Thanks- giving-day tilt, which ended in a score of 19 to 6. The annual football banquet was celebrated by a large crowd in the High School cafeteria. Lloyd Jordan. football coach at the University of Connecticut was the main speaker. James Pall and Russell Palmer were elected co-captains for the 1940 season. Next year's club will sadly miss the veterans lost by graduation. In the backiield, Nosal, Haines, Heiser will be -lost. Riley, another capable per- former will be lost through the new age limit set up in the state. Bischoff, Oberg, Reynolds, Cantillion on the ends: Everts, Whiteman and Carroll at the tackles: Gill, Linley and Jonucz at guards: and Comstock and Zeray at center will all be graduated this June. 611 From Row: A.

Ewgefdaf Loss of many valuable men and lack of new material hindered Fair- lield's quintet this year in its court wars. Although the record achieved evidenced little of merit, the team showed aggressiveness, and each game in which they participated, was hard fought. The live had a well-balanced at- tack, playing well defensively. Bill 'Kuruz, tall lanky center, was the leading scorer during the season with 84 points. He was followed by Palmer with 71, Galbiscek 42, Mory 42, and Nosal with 42 points. The basketball team was led by Dink Mory and Stan Nosal who were Co-Captains during the season. The following is the schedule and the scores of each game: OPPONENTS.

Nosal and Mory, infielders, and Wade, and BaTna, pitchers, were the only veter- ans to return. Conley, hard-hitting first-sacker, Mitchell, Carvan, and Bischoff were lost to the team. The pitching staff will most prob- ably be comprised of Harvey Wade, now in his third year on the team, Al Barna, in his second year, and Perry Gardner, senior, who will be seen with Fairfield for the first time. Kocet and Stan Nosal, Dink Mory., Rabbit Laska, and Ernie Benham will make up a fast and hard hitting infield with such top reserves as Ernie Gadue, Tony De Pio, and John Norton ready to step in. The outfield is Coach Taylor's hardest task. He will choose his outer garden patrollers from Stan Slesinski. George Murphy, Mickey Homa, Bud Carroll, Royal Everts, and John Leavy.

The team faced a tough schedule last year and came through with an impressive record. Although this year's team is minus the services of last year's cap- tain, Joe Cremona, the return of many veterans gives Coach Prof Sleigle hopes for an even more successful campaign this spring. The squad is led this year by Co- Captains Peter Piretti and Steven Heiser, both stylists in their events. Piretti, last year captured the Fairfield County Con-ference mile champion- ship and Heiser is the reliable man in the 440 yd. run. This marks the Hrst season the team is led by Co-Captains. Experienced performers will return in the other events looking for more success in their specialities. Lowell Frederick is the more than capable pole vaulter and Joe Youhouse will come back to perform in style in the broad jump. Ray Bansak is to return in his specialty, the javelin, and Fred Jonucz for the 880 yd. feature. The dashes will be held down by Charlie Strat- tard and the find of last year, sop- homore Bill Duif. Several newcomers will also have their chance at this distance. Will Hiza, Jim Bonney, and Irving Wakeman, are other experienced mem- bers who will help considerably. The above mentioned tracksters also specialize in more than one event and with many really promising new members in the different events. The boys in the flying spikes should en- joy a fine season. The team has five dual meets and two sectional meets scheduled. The highlight of the team's season is its participation in the Fairfield County meet. The schedule is as listed below: May May May 16 May 18-County Meet at Greenwich 25-State Championship Meet at New Haven May 28-Stratford at Bridgeport June 2-Harding at Bridgeport 9-Norwalk at Norwalk -Milford at Milford May 5-Greenwich at Greenwich Front Row: J.

Julie Eicas made the goal that won the game for the Orange and Black. The second team took on Cherrylawn and came out victorious with the score 6 to 2. In the return game with Westport, they experienced a very exciting and close game. Louise Holling came through with the first goal for Fairfield after Westport had scored two goals. Joan Cathcart tied the game with another goal and Louise added the final goal. The game ended with a 3 to 2 victory. The last game of the season was another Victory for the Orange and Black. Hillside was defeated by a 2 to O victory in which Julie Eicas and Louise Holl- ing respectively starred. The team is coached by Miss Josephine G'Dwyer and captained by Joan Cathcart. Basketball The Girls' Basketball team had another successful year captained by Ellen Barber, who was also a high scorer. The pass work of all the games was spectacular due to Louise Holling's ability. The team bowed only once to Staples High which was the first game of the season but later was victorious with a score of 26-19. The team will feel a great loss next year as Muriel lVlacBride, Louise Holling, Joan Cathcart, and Ellen Barber will be graduating. The record: Fairfield-- .,,. 1 8 Fairfield-3 2 Q ....

The Komians Komians, the name which in this school designates members of the Junior and Senior classes whose interest in stage, acting, or grease paint leads them into dramatics, comes from the Greek word Kommos. ln Greek tragedy it was the lament served in parts alternating between the chief actor and the chorus. Today, it has come to mean the actor himself, and from that anything pertain- ing to his interests. The members of the club presented in November, for the Armistice Day assembly, a one-act play entitled, In Heaven and Earth : in January, the Hart-Kauffman comedy, You Can't Take it With You : in April for the Uncle Joe's Night programme a mad skit entitled, No, Not the Russiansng and in May, for an assembly, the one-act comedy of home life, Make Room for Rodney. In addition to these plays there were various skits, monologues, and read- ings presented at the monthly meetings. It is from this group, as it gets exper- ience, come the people who are later to be elected to the Thespians-an honor group in acting and working for the promotion of interest in high school dra- matics. The faculty adviser was Mrs. Doris Kendall. l76l Senior Theater Top Row, left to right: 1. Lucas H. Foote, ,l. Bradford, P. Kirsten A. Coolhaugh, A. LcFcvr-2, ,I Parchixnuwicz. D. Swanson.

The Theater Club The Theater Club is organized to acquaint its members with the best plays on the New York stage, and to create an enthusiasm for the theater and its per- sonnel. Membership is open to juniors and seniors. At one meeting, the making of a puppet's head from clay to a finished model in plasticine was demonstrated. One of the club members, Polly Kirsten, reported on her summer study at the Skowhegan Theater in Maine. Two New York trips were sponsored, one a week-end for seniorsg and the second, a Saturday jaunt for juniors. The fol- lowing shows were enjoyed: Richard ll, with Maurice Evans: Skylark, with Gertrude Lawrence: and Ladies in Retirement, with Flora Robson. Miss Eliza- beth McLaughlin is the group adviser. The Camera Club During the past year, the Camera Club's main objective was to promote interest in photography and help the members learn more about this hobby. In this respect we were successful, having several talks by our president, a dis- cussion on picture composition and one meeting devoted to photographing some models in iloodlight shots. The amateur fans who took candid shots around school were given the chance to have their best ones in the Year Book. At one meeting a set of contest photos, kindly lent by the members of the Bridgeport Camera Club, was examined. Near the end of the school year the best pictures taken by the members during the year were put on purblic exhibition in the library. Miss Janet Phelps took charge as faculty adviser.

Short skits have been presented by mem-bers from the various sophomore home rooms. In December, a one-act play, Mimi Lights the Candle, was first given at a club meeting, then for the Freshman-Sopho- more Christmas assembly, and later for the Christmas meeting of the Mothers' Club. On April the fifth, the annual Freshman-Sophomore Play Night was held. The sophomores presented the one-act comedy Antic Spring by Robert Nail. This play was in the form of an experiment since no properties were used: it proved to be a success. Antic Spring was repeated as part of the program for Uncle Joe's Night. The cast included Jean Baron, Barbara Zehnder, Barbara -Riker, Robert Calvin, James Crawford, and Robert Lederer. For the last meeting of the club, those who have not yet taken part in any program will be given an opportunity to do so. Miss Olmstead was in charge. The Freshman Dramatic Club The Freshman Dramatic Club elected the following as its officers: President .....,........................................................ Eleanor Jones Secretary ........ ...... - Margaret Beatty Treasurer ................................................,........... Barbara Zima During the year members of the club arranged a program for each meeting which included one act play-s, skits, and monologues. The big event of the year was Freshman-Sophomore Night, April 5, when the Freshman group presented the one act play Sugar and Spice a comedy written by Florence Ryerson and Colin Clements. The cast included Delphine Marden, Ann Storrs, Betsy Parker, Dick Bouchard, and Bob Anthony, all of whom worked faith- fully to make the play a success. Nancy Johnson was the prompter. Miss Eleanor Foley was the faculty adviser. The Stage Crew F The crew, this year, has had an exceptionally heavy program. Many demands have been made on it for silent and sound moving picture operation, supervising of assemblies, and the staging of evening performances for school and other organizations. In addition to their usual activities directly connected with the crew, this year's group has set an enviable record in other endeavors holding three class presidencies, many club offices, and placing a number of boys on the school athletic teams. Although this means a great deal of extra work and takes a vast amount of time, the crew has throughout the year placed most of its mem- bers on the honor rolls. Mr. NVhittaker takes charge of the crew each year. l81l Library GROUP I Front Row: I. Gilbcrti, H. Golcsky, M. Papagcorgc, G. Arnold, I. Cop' sill, L. johnson. M. Hiza, Miss Donaldson.

E821 The Library Club The Library Club was organized under the leadership of Miss Donaldson for the purpose of acquainting the members with library usage and methods. The membership was limited to girls of the junior class because from this group are picked those who act as library messengers and assistants in their senior year. The enrollment was so much greater this year that it was necessary to have two divisionsg hence the two sets of oilicers. but the work covered has been the same in both groups. The girls have learned the Dewey decimal system of classifying books, how books are accessioned and catalogued, and the steps that are neces- sary before a book is ready for the shelves and circulation. They have studied the use of the Readers' Guide to Periodical Literature, encyclopaedias, dictionaries and other reference books, as well as the card catalogue. Each member has had an opportunity to work at the charging desk and has some practical experience in the routine of the school library.

At the close of each talk the girls were encouraged to ask questions. At the October meeting Miss Con- stance Babcock, a graduate of Barnard College, discussed the field of Social Service.

Foreign ideologies and American politics and policies received their full share of criti- cism and praise from the club's twenty-two members. In addition to the regular meetings of the club in early January, a meeting of the Fairfield County Student Forum was held at Roger Ludlowe, At this meeting the Fairfield club was named the executive board of the F. C. S. F. Later in the year, the Safe Drivers Club appealed for help in a debate they were to have with the Bassick High School. Mr. Harper explained the form of a debate for them and suggested a way by which speakers might be used to best advantage. The club president was drafted to help them: he took part in the debate.

Harper The Freshman-Sophomore Forum The Freshman-Sophomore Forum Club, under the supervision of Mr. Bowes, provides an opportunity for underclassmen to present their thoughts on topics of high school, community, national, or world interest. The object of the club is to familiarize the members with parliamentary procedure and to provide practice in open discussion and formal debate. During the course of the year, many interesting issues have been discussed or debated. These include capital punishment, compulsory military training in the CCC, and a third term for the president. The final debate of the year, pre- sented in the auditorium, was thrown open to any interested freshmen or sophomores. - The Connecticut Club . . ' Composed of twenty-four sophomore girls, the Connecticut Club, under Miss Alice Bulkley's supervision. had eight enjoyable meetings this year. At one meeting the members unscrambled names of Connecticut towns and cities. A quiz on Connecticut history filled another interesting get-together. Several members gave reports on Connecticut. .Mr. William Burr's pamphlets of his reminiscences of Fairfield life were read at another meeting. A visi-t was made to the Historical Wing of the Fairfield Memorial Library building where Mrs. Mary D. Taylor explained the Memorial Room. She told the history of some of the interesting things belonging to the Historical Society. In April, at the monthly meeting, Miss Elizabeth Child talked on early Fairfield life. E871 Societas Latina This year the Societas Latina Cmore commonly known to non-members as Latin Clubj had a very interesting time under the guidance of Miss Nell Garofalo. Each meeting was opened by the consul and followed by the notes of the last meeting given by the praetor. Our quaestors kept our funds well checked. After a short business period, the meeting was turned over to the aediles who prepared exciting programs for us. Such games as Bingo What's My Name? Christmas songs and skits, puzzles, etc. were all carried on in Latin. The club has tried to promote an interest in Latin and has given its mem- bers a more extensive understanding of Roman life. Miss Nell A. Garfalo was the faculty adviser. Consuls. ...,..... . ..,t.. ..tt, P eggy Price, Dorothy Williams Praetor .,........ .................... .,,. , . .,,..... .

Alice Finch Der Deutsche Verein The German Club is made up of members from the German I, II, and III classes. The programs have been arranged so that all the members may enjoy and take part in the meetings. As far as possible, German is used at the meetings. but the real purpose of the club is to increase the interest and pleasure of each member in his study of German by making him more closely acquainted with the customs, the literature, the history, and the culture of the German people. The lirst meeting after the one for organization was spent playing games. At two meetings, short German entertainments were presented by the members in the second and third year classes. Folk songs form a part of every meeting, but one whole period was given for singing and listening to recordings of folk songs. Even though most of the members are boys, folk dancing proved a popular kind of program. The club is a member of the Interscholastic Federation of German Clubs and is able through this organization to borrow puppets, plays, music and dances, song books, and reference books of all kinds on Germany and the Ger- man people. This material is of great value in planning the club programs. Miss Mary Wright was the faculty adviser. Beginners' French Club The Beginners' French Club has tried to combine the business of learning French with the art of enjoying it. The year started off with songs and reports on the different geographical sections of France in order to get an idea of the country and its people. To give skill and ingenuity, a work-out Bingo was played, words were scrambled, and vocabulary building games were played. French words and expressions found in correct English were discussed. To wind up the year's schedule, several movie Elms on life in 'the different French cities and provinces were shown. The club is directed by Miss Iris Provost. E881 Soeietas Latina Front Row: J.

This club was formed for the purpose of furthering commercial education in the recreational field. This year Miss Barker, together with Miss Levy, Mr. Dean, and the oflicers, planned our programs which included guest speakers of com- mercial interest, demonstrations of new office equipment, and group discussions on business ethics. Our annual Christmas party was held in the gymnasium on December 19, at which time the faculty and friends of club members were our guests. The annual outing, which is held at Lake Quassapaug in June, is the outstanding event of our club activities. All club members look forward to this affair, which in previous years, has been a grand success. The Seni E901 TVWWJ Front. Row: G. Slin-cy, G. Hull, A. Bruchalski, M. Bofick. A. Borsody. R.

Lois Stumpp, one of our ace bowlers, received a medal for competing in the Connecticut High School Tournament. Front Row: D. Edmunds, D. Metcalf, L. Stumpp. J. Eicas. Second Row: P. Scliipior, R.

This club carries on the active work of the Junior Red Cross in the school. Sending gifts and messages to soldiers and orphans at holiday times and trimming a float for the Memorial Day parade are some of the activities of the Club. Miss Marjorie Schallue was the faculty adviser. The Social Service Club Adviser ............ .............--..f LM iss Hall President ,,.,,,A,,r. ...,...

K atherine Galya Secretary ,v,,r,,,-,,,,,,,,,,,r...,,,-,.....,,,...,........... .-Victoria Colonnese The purpose of the club, as its name suggests, is to carry help and cheer where it is most needed, into the community in which we live. The club con- sists oaf thirty-five junior and 'senior girls, all of Whom are eager to help. At Thanksgiving time, the girls made a drive to collect food and money to be distributed as the welfare organization suggests. This year the drive resulted in twelve bushel baskets of food and ten dollars cash. The members of the club are divided into groups, each one working along some helpful line. One appointed group was chosen to send cards to those students who were ill at home or in the hospital. Another group was ready to help the Visiting Nurse in her work. Others stand ready to serve in any way they may be called upon, and in so doing the girls become acquainted with the needs of the community and are able to help. Miss Ruth Hall was the faculty adviser. The Safe Drivers Club We, the members of the Safe Drivers Club, believe that if we prevent one accident a year, our club has proved itself worthwhile. All Juniors and Seniors are eligible to join this organization. The Program Committee, with the help of Mr. Hellmann, our faculty adviser, arranged a program that was both interesting and educational. Mr. Edgar Haines, a representative of the Traveler's Insurance Company, gave an account of safety in driving. Chief Arthur Bennett of the Fairfield Police explained the Motor Vehicle Laws. Mr. Foley of the General Motors staff dis- cussed the history of transportation and the development of safety features of the modern highway. The club participated in the Bridgeport Junior Traffic Commission which is composed of high school students in Bridgeport, Stratford, and Fairfield. During one of these meetings, Fairfield debated with Bassick High School on the Twenty-five Mile Speed Limit. Both sides brought out many interesting points that showed much effort and research by the participants. This year Mr. Hellmann, with other members, attended the Connecticut Safety Congress at Yale University. George Johnson represented Fairfield High School in a panel discussion on Bicycle Safety. The club will again sponsor the Bicycle Safety Campaign throughout the grade schools of the town. E991 pm ,..1 JN. yu 61.9 V .Lui Travel Front Row: D. Hatch, J. Kinsella, S. Nlcrwin, W.

Many of the pro- grams have been moving pictures, including Yellowstone Park, Life Under the Sea, Central America, The New York World's Fair, and the New Haven Railroad's Snow Trains. One of our meetings was frozen out by the ice Storm. Mr. Ben Plotkin spoke to the club in May on his trip to Rio de Janeiro and to Texas. Cap- tain Glosten of the New York Propeller Club spoke at another meeting in May. Another feature of the Travel Club program has been our correspondence with Captain Olsen of the City of Joliet, whom we have adopted . His cards and letters to us have added much to our knowledge of other coune tries. Mr. E. Monroe Harwood was in charge.

Kc f 5 The Railroad Enthusiasts Club Toot ..... Toot It's Railroad again! And we've been places. Our forty Railroad Enthusiasts had many inter- esting activities at their nine meetings. but their first job was to learn to read a time table. Mr. Michael Coyle, a 50-year rail- road man from the Green's Farms Tower House. told us, it seemed, everything about a tower house from a railroad tie to the locomotive. Through the medium of the cinema, we traveled on The Olympian, the crack train of the Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul, and Pacific Railroad, from Chicago to the Pacific Coast visiting Yellowstone enroute. As souvenirs of the trip, each received a little notebook which contained Locomotive Lan- guage. The members of -the Travel Club were our guests. The climax of our year came on May l5th when the Bostonian train No. 14, made a special stop at Fairfield to take us with the Travel Club mem- bers on our annual trip to the N. Y., N. H., and H. R. R. Classification Yards in New Haven under -the leader- ship of Mr. John Coolidge. Here we saw a 125-car freight being classified automatically according to its New England destination, the handling of less than carload lots of merchan- dise, the creosoting plant, and the Round House, where each and every- one was an engineer at the throttle and whistle, if but for a few minutes.

Whittaker The Tailwaggers, the youngest club in school, was formed early in the fall. It was felt that there were a number of students who, because of their in- terest in pets and their care, would join such a club. Although organized after the other groups, thirty members reported for the first meeting. These included owners of dogs, cats, white rats, turtles, and many other pets. The dogs represented in the club took in most of the Well known breeds rang- ing from the aristocrats of the canine World to just dogs, while the cats ranged from the show type to the lowly alley cat. Prominent leaders connected with different fields pertaining to animal life were secured to speak before the club. In addition, several interesting meet- ings were put on by club members. The handling, judging, and caring for pets was discussed. In one very inter- esting program, a prize winning dog was exhibited. Points for and against the dog were shown. In another meet- ing, the feeding of animals was the topic, with an authority on that sub- ject as the leader. In another meeting, dog diseases, how to avoid them, and how to care for the sick animal was discussed. Many interesting animal stories have been told in the different meetings. These meetings have been both interesting and entertaining and were greatly enjoyed by members. The Pet Shop, compiled and sponsored by the group, is a product of the ingenuity of the members. It is made up of snapshots of some of the pets of the members. Already plans are being made for an expanded club with more activities and continued interesting meetings next year. Plans are being formulated for the club to exhibit their pets at the annual Greenfield Hill Grange Fair this coming fall. This should prove a most worthwhile activity. Mr. Ralph Whittaker had charge. I1021 The Pet Shop f103J The iiGift Club The Gift Club has had a very successful year, many types of gifts have been made. Most of the girls have learned to knit, crochet, embroider or tat. The climax of the year was reached when an exhibit was held in the library during the ithird week of May. A large variety of gifts were on display. This year the club was divided into two groups. The faculty adviser was Miss Marjorie Banks. The Girls, Hobby Club . The Hobby Club for freshman girls was new this year. We hoped there might be a fairly large group of girls keenly interested in various hobbies and that we might -perhaps arrange an exhibition at the end of the year. However, most of those who joined had. no hobbies, but were eager to learn about those of others. The hobbies which club members exhibited and described were scrap books of pictures of England, made even more interesting by corresponding with an English girl: collections of minerals, insects and souvenirs of places visited: dress designing: drawing: and collecting autographs of prominent people. Miss Cowlishaw of The Green Jade Tree spoke about collecting tapestries, porcelains, and other lovely things in Ghinag She brought some of her treasures for us to see. Lindsey Booth of the senior class talked on photography as a paying hobby, exhibiting some of his pictures. Mr. Merwin from Greenfield Hill described several of his many hobbies-collecting and mounting wild flowers, collecting minerals, government post cards, souvenir spoons, very old books, stamps, and coins. Miss Josephine Sawin was the faculty adviser. The Boys' Hobby Club The Boys' Hobby 'Club in its lirst year of organization attracted, as mem- bers. many 'boys interested in hobbies. The main purpose of the club was to encourage boys to continue hobbies in which they were interested and to aid others in discovering a suitable hobby for their spare time. Although membership in the club was limited to members of the two lower classes, some boys of the upper classes who were greatly interested in the club received special permission to attend the meetings. Interesting meetings, at which club members displayed their various hob- bies, and to which townspeople were invited to display unusual hobbies, were enjoyed by members of the club. Stamps, coins, model airplanes, toy dogs, badges, match covers, and coupons were among 'the hobbies displayed. The adviser was Mr. John Gleason. I:1041 Gift Front Row: Miss Banks, D. Woods, J.

Early in the year, several pantomimes for the right and wrong behavior on the street, in the theatre, restaurant, and at home were given by club members. At one meeting, a written questionnaire was used to help every- one contribute and take part in activities. Another meeting was devoted to color study, personal analysis, and posture rating. On April thirteenth, about thirty of the club members went to New York City. The annual picnic at Fairiied Beach was held at the close of the school year. Miss Jean Andrews was the faculty adviser. The Music Appreciation Club The Music Club has lived through its period of infancy and has faced several difficult problems. The divided interests of the group have made it very hard for Doris Schwing, the program chairman, to meet the requirements of the group. One faction has constantly clamored for swing and many of the same members are more interested in listening than performing. A happy medium of semi-classical music has met the best response so far. At one meeting several members played the piano or sang. Barbara Riker and Helen Schneider sang music from well-known operettas and the club enjoyed singing the choruses with them. A joint trip with Mr. Cavallero's groups to .the opera The Barber of Seville in New Haven was a new experience to many. At times, it was hard for the new opera-goers to get used to the slow dramatics tempo, but the second act proved to be more interesting. Better listening to better music has been the general theme for the club. Several meetings have been devoted to studying the meaning of musical ex- pression terms, varieties of rhythm, kinds of musical compositions, and types of instruments in an orchestra. The radio-phonograph has helped many programs. Later the club hopes to help build up the record collection of the school. Miss Jean Andrews presided as faculty adviser. The Stamp Club The Stamp Club of Roger Ludlowe High School has held nine meetings during the 1939-40 school year under the leadership of the president and his staff. This has been an unusual stamp year with special issues honoring our scientists, authors, poets and educators and the Pony Express. We welcomed our Stamp Club friend, Mr. Theron Foote and his unique collection at our January meeting. Mr. Milton Hunt of Southport was our speaker in March when we had the opportunity of traveling to many scenes of the World War with Mr. Hunt's World War covers. Postmaster William O'Dwyer brought us the history, not only of the post office of the United States but also our local post oflice, which dates back to January 15, 1776, when an entry appeared in Benjamin Franklin's register to that effect. lt is believed that Thaddeus Burr was Postmaster at that time. We learned about the operation of the post oilice, the largest business in the country. At the fol- lowing meeting, a group from the club enjoyed a personally conducted tour through our local post office with Postmaster O'Dwyer. At other meetings, we conducted stamp question and answer bees and discussed the recent issues. The faculty adviser was Miss Bessie C. Jennings. f107j Aviation Seated: R. Hannon, C.

At the second meeting the name, The Prop, Wing, and Luck Club, was decided upon by the members. We have progressed fairly rapidly despite the bad Weather and poor working facilities. We divided our club into three groups, the Gas Model Division, the Wakefield Group, and the Scale Model and Glider Division. We have held one contest at Fairfield beach. In our exhibition, We displayed about thirty air models of different types and sizes. The club, this year, consisted only of -freshmen and sophomores. At the month- ly meetings, explanations of model aerodynamics, and model motors were dis- cussed. The faculty adviser was Mr. Sleigle. The Hi-Y Club The Hi-Y Club, part of a national organization connected with the Y. M. C. A., was formed in the middle of the school year, its purpose being To create, maintain, and extend throughout the school and community high stand- ards of Christian character. The program -has been varied. We have had outside speakers at our meet- ings who have spoken on Vocations, Sports, and Ideals, followed by interesting discussions. The club had a Splash Party at the Y. M. C. A. in April with the joint purpose of getting better acquainted and raising funds to send a delegate to the National Hi-Y conference at Oberlin, Ohio.

Considerable improvement in the skill of the members of the team was in evidence as the practice sessions continued. We were able to obtain but one match in which we were defeated by a small margin by a Central High team which the previous year had defeated us by a large margin. Although we attempted to contact numerous schools for matches, We were unsuccessful in our efforts. l109j Band Front Row: D. Williams, M. Hyde K. johnson, I. Sperry, M. Cunning' ham, P. XVakcman, E.
