' 44 THE FOUR CORNERS SCARBORO HIGH SCHOOL X umber 1 May, 1043 Volume XXXI Editorials DOING OUR PART In the heart of every student at Scar- boro High School lies a sincere desire to serve his country. We, the students, cannot serve on the battlefield, but we can, and are, playing an important role on the home front. Some of the students have given time to the Observation Post on the high school roof; some have sewed for the Red Cross or collected Scrap; some have helped Mrs. Libbov get out those newsy letters for the boys in the service at home and abroad. The Editorial Board feels that Tiie Font Cokxeks should serve, too. As a result, we are issuing this year an edition featuring Scar boro ' s Service Men. This year we have included snapshots of our boys in uniform, quotes from the boys’ letters, snapshots of ‘’what our hoys are fighting for ' and an account of what we are doing about it. We invite you to enjoy these pictures: read the letters from the boys; and thrill with pride at their accom¬ plishments. Although our school life has been al¬ tered. although we have had to give up some of the functions which have become traditional at $. H. S., such as the Thanks¬ giving presentation of the Senior play, you will find that we have not been idle. We. too, are in the scrap. With chins up, we face a future which claims eighteen-year- old boys and girls for armed service and defense industry, TRAMP, TRAMP, TRAMP Tramp, tramp, tramp, the boys are marching out of the Senior Class, out of the Junior Class and into the Service. When the call came for eighteen-year-olds, Uncle Sam found a great many still at “the little rod schoolhouse. As Uncle Sam has always been a bit on the benevo¬ lent side, some of the fellows may be de¬ ferred until they graduate. The call of the country is strong and it isn ' t surprising if the shadow of a dive-bomber glides across the page of that open history book. Xow, we believe that if a high school education will make a student more useful to Uncle Sam, he should complete it. On rho other hand, if lie is just marking time, if those visions of planes, tanks and uni¬ forms come so fast that they blot out the printed page, then he shouldn’t waste time. He is needed in industry, for defense or for fighting, lie must not shirk wherever he is. NO LONGER THREE R ' S This year, in accordance with state rec¬ ommendations, ten new courses have been added to our high school curriculum. When you read through this list, you can readily perceive their practicability: Pre- THE FOUR CORNERS Flight Aviation, Aviation .Mathematics, Model Aircraft Project for the Tinted States Xavv, Current Aviation (Behold our Flyers!), Shop .Mathematics, Radio Communications, Trigonometry. Physical Fitness, Spanish and First Aid. These are courses whieh will he as practical in the future as they are at the present time. Lame muscles and poor posture are be¬ coming things of the past because of our Victory courses in Physical Fitness. After a work-out in these course?, we should he ready for labor in industry, on farms, or in the Armed Forces. First Aid is a course which everyone en¬ joys and finds practical. ‘‘The immediate, temporary treatment given in case of acci¬ dent or sudden illness before the services of a physician can be secured’’ can now be administered by a majority of our stu¬ dents. On the practical and cultural side, we have first-year Spanish. In studying this we hope to open the door of friendship with our neighbors in the South. The LTuitod States expects a closer relationship in the fulure, both in industrial and social affairs, so we’re planning to get acquainted. We want to say “Saliulos Amigos,” too. In order to arrange for these additional subjects, in a curriculum that still offers college and general courses, we have re¬ turned to the stationary schedule, more periods each day. Everyone works harder, of course, THIS IS WAR! THE CURE FOR A NEW DISEASE Hoarding is a disease which has spread all over the country. Although it is neither contagious nor infectious, it is dangerous and threatens human lives. To eat or not to cat is no longer the ques¬ tion, because Uncle Sam has taken a hand. 7 Me 1ms the cure for this disease, rationing. Everyone has become familiar with the term, rationing, within the last year, but did von know that rationing began with I lie Pilgrims ? They had scant supplies for I hat first winter, so they planned ahead and shared with each other. Rationing is even more essential in these times. We have many starving people in foreign coun¬ tries dependent upon us for life, itself. We have an armv to feed, and if it is to do its job effectively, it must be well-fed. We may complain about giving up coffee, or sugar, or gas, but wo are not asked to give an arm, or a leg, or our life. The rubber raft repaid a thousandfold the loss of that vacation mountain trip, when it saved men like Rickenbacker. Rationing is new to us; new things have their faults, but as time goes on we shall all be more grateful for this fair sharing of prized commodities. IT ' S UP TO US Many of our high school students have friends or relatives in the Armed Forces of our country. Needless to say we all want to do our part to win the war so they may come back to us soon. Even a high school student can aid in this effort by being, ‘‘The Man Behind The Man Behind The Gun.” This summer there will be literally thousands of posi¬ tions open to high school boys and girls. Some of these jobs may not be glamorous, but is that of the street cleaner, or the sol¬ dier on the battlefield? Yet these jobs are important to the welfare of mankind. Here is a challenge: Will you take the job devoid of glamour but essential for Victory? Will you ask yourself, “Where can I serve best ?” SENIOR PERISCOPE Althea Marie Aiilqiist Eorn: October 25. 1925. Place: Scarboro, Me. Hobby: Dancing and reading.

Perhaps I’ll write about the weather. Not write at all, is what I’d rather. “The day s are hot. the nights are chilly”; To write like this would seem darned silly. You’d like to hear about Australia. I’d say some things I couldn’t mail you. I‘d write about the things I do. But, darn it. ’twould be censored, too. Pei haps about the women fair, They’re not at all like they are there. You see how hard it is to write A letter on a quiet night With not a single tiling to say, Except I’m thinking every day Of you and Home and that great day, When your wand’ring boy comes home to stay. ODE TO THE AUSTRALIAN HEN In she came and down she sat; Laid an egg and up she gat. (Contributed by Arthur Burnell. ’31: Writ¬ ten by a boy who waited two weeks for some¬ body to write to him.) It’s not so much where your feet may roam, Nor the folks you meet while away; It’s the line or two that you get from home That’s making you sober or gay. The girls, of course, do their share to please; The boy pals—well, perhaps they’re the same, But when you get blue and you’re down in the knees Comes your Mother’s words, “Son, play the game.” For no matter where in this wide world of chance, That your feet ever wand ' ring may roam. You can always gamble right after the ramble, There’s a letter awaiting from Home. THE NAVY BLUE Say, Girl, I saw you sneer just now. Don’t I look good to you? “I ' m not one of your class”, you say. I wear the Navy Blue. You think I’m not fine enough For such a girl as you? Men that would not hold your hand Have worn the Navy Blue. You bar us from your theaters, folks. And from your ballrooms, too. Where there is room for everyone Except the Navy Blue. We’re only common sailor boys, Till trouble starts to brew. And, then, dear Friends, you are the first, To cheer the Navy Blue. How many folks in civil life Will take the time to think That sailors do some other things, Besides carouse and drink. But when we all are dead and gone. When Life’s last cruise is through. We’ll not be barred from Heaven’s gates, For wearing Navy Blue. So when you meet a sailor boy. I’d smile, if I were you. No better men have trod the earth Than boys in the Navy Blue. STUDENTS council , v 30 THE FOUR CORNERS WERE IN THE SCRAP TOO ' Jr ■ WAR SAVING STAMPS In accordance with the Government’s wish and our own, a War Savings Stamp and Bond sale lias been regularly con¬ ducted each week. Up to the date of our going to press the students liavo purchased a total of $925.25 worth of stamps and $637.50 worth of bonds. The bonds are reckoned at purchase price and not at j I + | i i matured value. To stimulate further in¬ terest in the sales, a banner bearing the letters W. S. S. and the numerals of the class selling the most stamps and bonds is given each week to the class, not the home room, making the best showing. So far the Freshmen have won the banner once, the Seniors twice, and the Sophomores six times. UIKLs PHYSICAL FITNESS rany a rime I have heard a girl say, “liny, 1 wish i was A-l physically ! Quite a different attitude from that of the girl of the DO ' s who wasn ' t a lady unless she fainted frequently. But we are at war. and the need for a nation of physically tit people, not merely men. but everybody, lias suddenly faced us and we must prepare for it. Even military jobs, once rhot to be a man ' s affair, are now taken over by the WAACS. WAVES and the SPARS, and who knows which of us may soon be in one of these organizations? This means that we must take our physical training more seriously, and take it from me, we are If you peck in on a girls ' physical fitness class in S. II. S. now, you see a hardening proc¬ ess going on which at first lamed us up so we were in agony, then dared us to go back for more. Ob, that first “morning after! Talk about a “hangover! We had one. If we hadn ' t been ravenously hungry, nothing would have induced us to endure the mis¬ ery of doing the stairs to the lunch counter. We looked longingly back to the state of fitness we had before we began those exer¬ cises. bur there was not let-up. However, like the man who jumped into the bramble bush and “scratched them in again ’ we found that more of the same sort cured the lameness. Just watch us now stand on our heads, turn a forward, then a backward somersault, flop in all sorts of weird posi¬ tions on the mats, laugh our heads off, then up and at it again. But we ' re arriving, and in a few weeks the WAVES or WAACS will have nothing on us. Here we come, Uncle Sam ! BOVS PHYSICAL FITNESS The boys in the Junior and Senior classes of S. H. S. appreciate the physical fitness program which is designed to de¬ velop coordination between mind and muscle, the ambition of every young man. He is a part of the nation-wide program to promote the conditioning of American youth and give him preliminary training for military service. Our program consists of ability tests for: (a) Balance, (b) Agility, (c) Strength, (d) Speed, (e) Power, (f) Flexibility, (g) Motile endurance. By mo tivating the work, exercises become more than merely repetition of the usual calis- thenic drill. Our boys who enter the Serv¬ ice will benefit from the workouts in the gym, however tedious they may seem at times. To all our fellows now in the serv¬ ice of our country, we say, “Chins up; many fine and physically fit young men will join you soon.” FIRST AID Slam! Bang! Wham! What’s hap¬ pened! Only someone falling downstairs. What of that ? Merely a trifle to us Studes in First Aid. Broken arms, legs, backs, or necks, bring Vm along. Meanwhile we call either Doe Titus, Cohen. Dodge, and nurses, Ray. Slier wood, or Libby, and in a trice they will do you up from head to heels, ably assisted by dozens of other First Aiders, put you on a stretcher and send you off in an ambulance to your fate. Seriously, we have really done quite a job, or at least, we think so. in learning not only to do up simple wounds, and put on splints and slings, traction hitches and such, but in learning the reason for our procedures. We feel quite well acquainted with our anatomies, and have acquired a lot more respect for our complicated struc¬ ture, especially all those bones and our hearts. Oh, those heart diagrams! We 1 never knew what heart trouble was until our instructor made us do a diagram of S one. We have had four classes of nine weeks each, with a total of 77 students enrolled. We recite every day as in all other courses, and have a lot of practical work. We gave one demonstration to the student body. One thing we were very proud to master was the application of the Kelly-Blakc half ring hinged splint for the leg and the Mur- ray-Joues splint for the arm. Since the high school is the emergency casualty sta¬ tion and we would perhaps be called to as¬ sist in an emergency we have been allowed to use some of the station equipment. Although this was begun as a war course, it will be even more valuable in peace. Many people in our town now have knowledge, once open only to doctors, that may save lives. Long distances from a doc¬ tor, bad auto accidents, even bombings, are no longer dreaded. Unlike London, we will not have to wait until a raid is upon us to find out what to do. In every town classes like ours have played at bleeding, drowning, suffocating, to gain practice and we know we will come thru with flying colors. ORCHESTRA The Orchestra, under the capable direc¬ tion of Miss Sara Steele, has increased its membership this year, and is trying to pro¬ mote still more interest among students. The group consists of four violins, one trumpet, one trombone, one cello, three clarinets, one piano-accordion, and two pianos. It has had several public appear¬ ances, including one before the Civic League and one before the children from the grade buildings, at which time the players explained and demonstrated their various instruments to see if it might prompt some children with musical inter¬ est to take up an instrument. The orches¬ tra intends to parade and play at the School Music Festival in Portland some time in May. A Junior Orchestra has been formed with three violins, two trumpets, one trom¬ bone, one saxophone, and two pianos. These players are mostly from the Grade School, but tho start they are getting will have them ready to enter the Senior Or¬ chestra upon entering High School. Just before the end of last year, the Mothers’ Club got us all beautiful uniforms with in¬ signia in our school colors of Red and White. These add both to our appearance and enjoyment. We are to furnish the music for the Memorial Night program as we did last year. STATE GUARD RESERVES Company IT of the State of Maine Olesen.

BOY SCOUT MESSENGER Last winter many of the Scouts under the supervision of their local Scout Mas¬ ters received training- in Messenger work to accompany the work of the Air Raid Wardens. Since receiving their training, the Warden service lias ruled that only hoys over fifteen may act as messengers, but all who took the course will soon qualify jf they are not already. Many of those who are at present qualified to act as Messen¬ gers are taking the regular First Aid course in school in addition to that already taken last winter and are proving to have real skill. Since the High School has been named a casualty station, in event of a raid, it will he a fine thing to have so many on hand, to assist the adult First Aiders. I I OBSERVATION POST The Scarborough Observation Postdate organized last Spring under the direction of Harold Bennett, who has proved a most capable and efficient chief. An observation tower was erected on top of the High School building near the boys’ entrance, and a platform surrounded by a board fence was later added, together with a stairway. The house is heated by an elec¬ tric heater, and has large windows on three sides. Many different persons have served as spotters, including women and grammar school children who sure know their planes. Usually the spotters work in pairs for a four-hour shift, but some work alone for a two-hour period. This is at times in¬ teresting, but at times as monotonous and lonely as an outpost guard in the army, and—as essential. Our hats off to those who have braved all kinds of weather and have stayed awake to guard the rest of us while we slept. The Show Must Qo on i- r i‘ 42 TUB FOUR CORNERS ATHLETICS Owing to the emergency, wo have been obliged to curtail our program of intersclio- lastic sports this year. However, we have competed with other schools in track, bas- ketball, cross country and swimming. Our spring schedule calls for outdoor track in which there seems to be growing interest among our neighboring schools. TRACK In an abbreviated season of only three track meets, Searboro High was unde¬ feated. On Hay 7th, our team met Old Orchard Beach High at the Old Orchard play field. In a cold drizzling rain, we succeeded in doubling the score of our opponents, win¬ ning ( 6-33. On Hay 13th, we defeated Gorham High and Windham High in a triangular meet held at rhe Thornton Academy field. Harris Cohen of Searboro was high point man with 17 points. The scores were: Searboro. 59: Gorham, 22 ; and Windham, IS. On May 20th, we captured the Triple C track meet at the Portland Stadium by scoring in every event oil the program. Doug Harriman of Windham won three first places, winning the mile, quarter, and half. Meehan of Falmouth also won three places in the broad jump, shot put, and the javelin. A well-balanced team rather than star performers won the meet for us. The summary: 100-Yard Dash—Won by Larrabee. G; second. Armes, F; third, Meehan, F; fourth, Libby, S.

Profenno, ’45; Reilly, ' 45; J. ' Brim, ’45; W. Perham, ‘46; A. Clinch, ? 4G; and V. Pooler, ’40. Before our first meet, our leading candi¬ date for individual honors became ineli¬ gible for the rest of the season, and Joe Brim and A1 Clinch became our best bets and both of them finished well in the two meets which we held. The Triple C run was hold at Gorham High School course. Gorham, which placed five men in the first ten, had a total of 28 points to 43 for Windham High, the defending champion, and 50 for Scarboro.

This run was open to all schools in the county. Compet¬ ing were Deering High, Portland High, Gorham High, Windham High and Scar¬ boro High. Emery of Deering High won the individual honors and Portland High, the team prize. Scarboro again finished in last place, Joe Brim being our first man to finish in thirteenth place. The Windham High swimming team captured the Triple C swimming crown for the second successive year on Wednes¬ day evening, October 21st, at the Portland Boys’ 01 ub pool. Five meet records were broken, all by members of the champions. Our team was composed of Carlo Pro¬ fenno, T 43; Dick Wood, ’44; Bob Cott, ’45; and Donald Ward, ’46.

Due to lack of transportation facil¬ ities there was no official Triple C sched¬ ule, a shortened schedule of games was played. By close figuring on the part of Coach Ilallett, our team managed to com¬ plete a schedule of twelve games, although the only way our team could get to the games was bv bus. Our first team consisted almost wholly of Seniors — Knight, Libby, Richardson, Scamman, Jensen, Grant, Cohen, and Witham. Our outlook for next year is none too bright but several promising Sophomores and Freshmen will be on hand, many of whom have seen experience oil the second team this year. The follow¬ ing Sophomores will probably be on the first squad next year: J. Plowman, J. Lor- fano, R. Reilly, R. Hicks, R. Cott, and 1). Campbell. Although we only won three games out of twelve played, most of the games lost were by very close scores with the outcome of the games in doubt until the very last. VARSITY SCHEDULE Falmouth.
