Who would think that at one time it was a rusty water After Mr. Lawson had Dreamwold Hall built, the unsightly water tank spoiled a good deal of his view; so he arranged to have the tank covered. In 1901 Lawson ' s Tower was constructed, and in 1902 the chimes were installed 121 feet from the ground, giving practically everyone in Scituate the pleasure of hearing the inspira- tional music. There is a superstitious legend that a young Swede, who was working on the tower, fell and died a few minutes later. Some people claimed to have heard him moaning after the chimes were played. The chimes were rung an hour each night when they were first installed, but after the death of Mrs. Lawson, they were not sounded for many years. As weddings in the Lawson family took place, however, the music from the once-rusty old water tower again rang out for Scituate to hear. In 1923 Mr. Frederic Bailey purchased the chimes from Mr. Lawson and later sold them to the town of Scituate. The tower was later given to the Water Company. At that time the chimes were played automatically every morning at six and every evening at seven. Now for the most part they only ring out the time, but once in a while, on a special occasion, one may still hear the beautiful music of the chimes. It was the chimes which inspired the name of our school magazine in 1924. We all hope that our Chimes too has rung out its message, and that its music will swell into a greater Chimes during the years. TWENTY-TWO years ago Scituate High published their first school magazine and christened it the Chimes. It vv as about half as big as the edition we have now and cost but twenty-five cents. Then it had but twenty pages in all, including the advertisements, and was issued three times a year. There were stories, essays, editor- ials, and poems of much the same type as those in our magazine today, but at that early date there were no pictures. In 1924 the students had no gymnasium. They used the town hall for their bas- ketball games. — The High School cafeteria was over in the Annex, which had been the old high school. Miss Ina Litchfield was in charge, and the girls who were study- ing Household Arts helped to prepare and serve the food . . . The French language was made interesting for the pupils of the third year French class, when they put on a plav in French . . . The High School had a library in that up-to-date year, but it wasn ' t much of a one according to present-day standards, boasting only two bookcases. They needed a good set of encyclopedias ... In those days the students played baseball on the Common. It was a very convenient spot except that many of the balls dropped in the cemetery and forced the third baseman to climb the stone wall. Finally, people own- ing houses near-by complained of broken windows, and consequently the Park De- partment decided to close the Common to baseball. But the students of good ole ' 24 weren ' t to be daunted so easily. They got to work and started to clear the land in back of the school. That was the beginning of our athletic field. . . The enrollment of the school tlial ear was 1 IIJ. and iht ' facullx consisled of six tnetnhers. In 102 ) pii lui ' c. niadf lluir (K ' lml in ihe (.hiiiD ' s. And wlial pirlurps!

THE CHIMES MARCHES ON Janis Tyler, ' 47 8 ®IliiDiMe§ of the other styles were just as outlandish. Dresses had no shape what-so-ever, and waist lines began at the hips. ( I wonder how our clothes will look to the pupils of 1966?) The hair-do ' s were short, period. Most of what hair was left usually fell in front of one ' s face in those days. The boys dressed pretty much the same as they do now, except that a few of them still wore knickers. The uniforms of the girls on the basketball team were quite the thing. They consisted of large dark bloomers coming to the knees, with either blouses or sweaters, and of course stockings. Can ' t you just see our team running around the floor in rigs such as those? The enroll- ment for that year was 119. In 1928 French stories were printed in the Chimes . . . The pupils of the Art Class under the supervision of Mrs. Ward redecorated the teachers ' rest room ... A tennis club was formed . . . The Glee Clubs gave a minstrel show . . . The school year consisted of a total of 180 days, and the enrollment rose to 135 . . . the girls of the bas- ketball team got new uniforms. The knee-length bloomers were still being worn, and white blouses covered by dark jerkins decorated with large white S ' s completed the ensemble. The girls still wore stockings . . . The School Department was planning to build an addition to the High School. In 1929 the Senior Class held a candy sale in the library and added six dollars to the class treasury. . . The football team lost to St. Thomas ' school of Jamaica Plain with a score of 13-0, but defeated Randolph by a score of 6-0 . . . The Sophomores gave the Freshmen a Hallowe ' en Partv . . . Individual Senior Class pictures were intro- duced . . . One of the actresses plunged through the scenery during intermission at the presentation of the class play. In 1930 two wings were added to the High School building. One provided a shop for manual training, a well-equipped cafeteria, and an adequate gymnasium and auditorium. Before this addition they had used what is now our study hall for as- semblies. In the other wing were four class rooms for the Junior High grades, an art room, and a music room. . . The once-modest skirts of the girls were raised to the knees, and white stockings were considered the style. The hair-do ' s were even short- er .. . The Chimes was being printed only ) early then . . . The members of the football team had new uniforms, but I ' m afraid they looked more like jail-birds than football players since their jerseys were striped up the arms. The girls of the basketball team were still wearing the same uniforms, but the stockings were eliminated. In 1931 the girls ' skirts were lowered again . . . Knickers were definitelv out for the boys . . . Some of the girls started to let their hair grow . . . The football team was still wearing the striped jerseys . . . The girls of the basketball team had a new uniform It was a light blue bloomer sleeveless affair, with the bloomers pulled wa) up above the knees. My, weren ' t they getting immodest? In 1934 the girls ' skirts were even longer than they were in 1926. They were a shade above the ankles . . . Very few girls were let- ting their hair grow . . . Sweaters were entering the parade of fashion . . . Miss Vines graduated from Scituate High . . . Mr. Stewart entered Scituate High as athletic coach. . . . The football team was given a banquet at Hugo ' s and the squad presented Mr. Stew- art with a gold football. The football team won many victories in their striped jerseys. . . . The boys of the basketball team had new uniforms . . . The girls ' basketball team won the South Shore Championship. In 1935 Mr. Calkin came to Scituate High School as principal . . . The girls ' skirts were still around their ankles, and sweaters were being seen more and more. Saddle shoes were becoming popular and stockings were being replaced by socks with bright-colored tops . . . Hair was still short . . . The girls ' basketball team tied with Marshfield for the South Shore Inter-scholastic League Championship . . . The foot- ball team tied Marshfield in the Thanksgiving game. They were still wearing those striped jerseys. In I9. ' )6 ihe girls w(ir( hilling llicii hair giow . . . I ' cll;- were being worn with swealeis . . .

However, they looked as though they were walking the last mile . . . The boys ' basketball team set a record which had been unparalleled for many years, with 11 victories and 2 losses . . . The girls basketball team was again successful that season and tied with Pembroke for the championship. Each of the girls on the first team received a silver basketball.

World Champion typist, demonstrated speed and accur- ac in typing in an assembly . . . The football team finally got new uniforms, and how they needed them after eight years of hard wear . . . The football season was victorious, witii only one loss, that being to Cohasset with a score of 7-6 . . . The girl ' s field hockey team lost only two games. In 1939 people began to look normal . . . Hair-do ' s were once again down to a reasonable length . . . Miss Gile and Miss Kingsbury joined the faculty . . . The football team won the South Shore Championship, and was given a banquet at Hugo ' s. Later they were given another banquet sponsored by the Scituate Booster ' s Club. The members of the senior class were awarded sweaters and the rest of the squad received gold footballs. In 1940 the Chimes was enlarged to about twice the size it had formerly been . . . (Jroup pictures of all the classes and one of the faculty were an added improvement . . . Scituate finally defeated Cohasset in football, and bad a victorious season . . . The Senior Class Play was Little W omen. In 1941 people looked very up-to-date. . . The football team lost one game, to Dighton. a new rival . . .

The Chimes marches on! 10 CLASS OF 1946 Ann E. Graham ON September 9, 1942, we, the class of 1946, started our career as freshmen at Scituate High School. And now that our senior year is almost completed, we look back over our high school record with a feeling of glowing pride. Many new members have joined our class since 1942. among whom are Charlotte Allen from Reading, Mass.; Alden James from Delmar, N. Y. ; Doris Kulisich from Westford, Mass.; Shirley Reid from Lynn, Mass.; and Elizabeth Ann Shaw from Quincy, Mass. Several boys formerly of our class went into the service of our country before graduation. They were William Crosby, Richard Dwyer. Robert and Joseph Fitzpatrick. Robert Manning, and John Stanton. At our first class meeting in September Charles Fleming was once again elected to lead the class through its yearly trials and tribulations. Rich- ard Flaherty bowed to the honors of vice-presi- dent: Joan Powers was chosen secretary; and John Litchfield, treasurer. Mr. Wilcox was el- ected as class adviser. Dashing down the field hugging the pigskin this fall, the seniors were known to have crashed through with many touchdowns. This list of our football heroes was as follows: Sarge Bartlett. Dick Flaherty. Pete Fleming. Donald McPherson. Ralph Roberts. Ward Swift. Charles Vickery. William Vining, and Danny Yuhr. This year the boys ' basketball team came out in second place in the South Shore league. With Robert Holcomb, the star center, ably assisted by Sarge Bartlett. Charles Fleming. Ralph Ro- berts. Ward Swift and Charles Vickery, how could they help it? Once again the Scituate High girls ran off with the laurels of the South Shore league, win- ning almost all their games in field hockey and basketball. In both sports the showing of sen- iors was excellent. Those receiving letters in one or both of these two sports were Peggy Cole, Ann Ciirrati. Margaret Damon. Car(jle Dunphy. Aim Ilelfernan. Thelnui Jenkins. Ann MacKetizie. Joan Powers, Madeline Riaiii, Barbara Tindall, Betty Welch, and Ruth Whittaker. According to our lengthy list of dramatics. Helen Hayes and Lionel Barrymore should bid adieu to the footlights to make way for future stars from the class of ' 46. In the all-school play produced last fall, the seniors that helped put the show over were Sarge Bartlett. Eleanor Bates, Ellen Callahan. Louis Cerilli. Peggv Cole. Ann Graham, Donald Hattin. Robert Holcomb, Donald McPherson. Paul Miles, Joan Powers, Ward Swift. Barbara Tindall, and as assistant- director, Betty Welch. For our farewell to the stage at S. H. S. the seniors chose Strictly For- mal, a riot of hilarious comedy, produced un- der the management of Miss Gile. Those appear- ing in the play were Sarge Bartlett. Eleanor Bates, Ellen Callahan, Peggy Cole. Pete Flem- ing. Ann Graham. Donald Hattin, Ann Heffer- nan. Jean Hersey. Bob Holcomb. Marie McCar- thy, Donald McPherson, Paul Miles, Joan Pow- ers, Barbara Tindall, and Betty Welch. Beating it out for the last four years in our school band, we ' ve had that maestro of the french horn. Donald McPherson, and that hep-to-the-jive baritone player. Cobby Swift. This year the boys ' cheerleading squad com- bined their deep bass with the girls ' voices and really rooted our teams to victory. Yelling for S. H. S. we had Eleanor Bates, Don Hattin, Bet- ty Ann Shaw, and Danny uhr from the senior class. The most successful social function of the ear was, of course, the senior dance held on No- vember 9 with everyone swinging and swaying to the downbeat of Bob Ferris ' orchestra. In concluding our high school annals, we mention the fact that we could well be called the war-class. The heavy shadow of war made its darkened appearance in many phases during our high school years, but. we, like all the school children of America, have stood by. serving as best as we knew how on the homefront. waiting and praying for our fathers. ' brothers. and sweethearts ' safe return. And now that we are read to go out and face the ups and downs of life, let us hope that we ma) have the same stead- fast spirit to meet the problems of future )ears.

Since then we have lost Betsy Peggs to Maine; and Donald Kennedy to Thayer Academy. At our first class meeting on September lo we re-elected Bob Glynn for president. Lau- rence Dwyer. Jane O ' Neill, and Jean Holcomb were elected ice-president, secretary , and treas- urer respective . Miss Vines was unanimously chosen for our class adviser. The Juniors have been well represented in all sports h() k(!y. I ' oolball. basketball, and soft- ball — and inan of llicm have re civcd Idlers. The clifci -leading xpiad. composed mostly ol Juniors, has done its part for the morale of the football and basketball teams. When trv-outs were held for the all-school plav. ' Show Boat. Annelaine Limper and An- nette Milliken made the grade as principals, with manv Juniors backing them up in the chorus. In December Janis Tyler and her committee made a real success of the Junior dance. De- borah Andrews and her aides de camp gave an enjovable assembly for the whole school in Jan- uary. The Juniors gave generously in the last war bond drive and also in the recent Red Cross drive.

When we came back to school in Septem- ber, we didn ' t have to grope our way around the corridors trying to find the room where we be- longed, for we had gone all through that the year before. At our first class meeting we elected Mr. Dodge as class adviser. The officers were elected as fol- lows: Roimie Fallon, president: Buckie Flynn. vice-president; Martha Pierce, secretary; Alette Dolan, treasurer. If you were at the football games this fall, you would have seen a lot of the Sophomore boys out on the field. Dick Whittaker.

Alter our vci exciting year as Ireshineii we are looking forward to the coming sophomore year. 19 LITE T UR.E ONE PEACE Carole Dunphy, ' 46 THE Class of 1946 is stepping out into a world which has just witnessed the dawn of a new age. What effect these young people will have on the new age, time alone will tell. What effect this new age will have on the students, can only be imagined. This generation, however, will surely have a great part in the restoration and the reconstruc- tion of our war-torn world. We, as a class, have done our bit through the medium of high school activities. Red Cross, salvage drives, bonds and stamps, hospital work — all have had our help in carrying through their goals. Now as we step out into the world as individuals and citizens, greater tasks befall us. One of our greatest tasks is doing what we can to insure the success of the United Nations Organization, the nucleus of in- ternational peace. World peace does not come with the ceasing of guns or the signing of treaties. It can come only when the world is readv to follow the teachings of God. It can come only when every government in the world pledges itself to lasting concord and decides to settle feuds by arbitra- tion instead of by arms. It can come only when each of these nations conducts itself in such a way as to warrant no hostility. The pavement of the road to permanent peace is in the hands of our generation and the gen- erations to follow. Each stone on this road must pass the standards of the ideals of all mankind. A world of individuals must unite in the com- mon welfare of all. Every country in the world must work together striving as one to reach the goal of universal peace. We can not let this chance for world concord slip through our fingers. We can not let the U. N. fall into the foot-steps of the League of Nations. We must all strive together toward the ideal of one peace for all nations and all nations for one peace. OUR PRESENT CAREER Patricia Cahir, ' 47 YES, attending school day after day is just that, our career. Did you ever think of it that way? No doubt we students would all benefit b taking this attitude toward our school life. Hid you i-vcr licar  f a job ol any nature or un executive or managerial position of any kind that called loi ' only six or seven hours ' work foi ' but one-half the year? Of course not. No field of employment sets such liberal standards as the field of education. But do we consider our lot as students a joy or a burden? We alcjiie are the benefactors in this proposi- tion of -ompulsory education. We receive an educaliofi that ecjiiips us to meet ail tlie o|)poi- liinilies aiul challenges that liie oHei . Yet, fie- i|uenlly students alleinpt to shirk their resjion- sibilities rather than make the most of their numerous advantages. 20 IDDieS Think a minute of the many things that have been done for us to make our school life more pleasant. Physical education has become a prominent part of the school system. Various literary and musical clubs and social activities have been organized for our enjoyment. A pro- gram such as that of compulsory education in- evitably has to cater to extremely varied types of people of different aptitudes and interests, ne- cessitating courses adapted to meet their vary- ing needs. These, too, are adequately supplied. If ue take the right perspective on things, we get an entireh different view of life. Why not make a success of our present career, and thus insure our career in the future. THE ALBATROSS Joan MacDonald, ' 48 White specter of the sky.

Now that we are on the threshold of a new era, the teen-agers of today become of ital importance. To whom does the problem of the future belong unless to us, the future citizens of the United States. There are many serious problems confronting and threatening our democracy toda . One of the principal problems is that of racial discrim- ination. Are we willing to accept other races into our social life? It is, naturalh, onlv de- mocratic that we do, for we cannot preach de- mocracy unless we practice it. WTiat shall be done with the great and fear- ful atomic bomb? Is it our privilege to preserve its secret; 1 ask you, is it? Are we not causing suspicion and distrust if we do so? It is inevi- table that the secret must be shared. Will there not be attempts, perhaps successful attempts, to create a more devastating, a more terrifying, de- structive weapon? The atomic bomb will and must be allocated to peace-hungry people. How shall we institute democracy in the de- feated nations? Shall we force it down these peoples ' throats, or shall we, through defeated but liberal leaders, strive to set up a true demo- cracy ? Shall we continue to export food to the rav- aged countries? Or shall we devour it selfishly ' to satisfy our own wants? Would that be the ac- tion taken by a peace-loving nation, a democra- tic nation? I think not. These are just a few of the problems that threaten to disunite us in this new and appre- hensive age. Whose duty is it to solve these problems? It is the duty of the young citizens of America. We cannot go on oblivious of that fact. One might call us the most significant generation in the Lnited States. Can these all-important problems be solved? es, thev not only can. but must be solved. Prob- lems that deal with the health and happiness of man can only be solved by people thoroughly ed- ucated in democracy. It is these intelligent people that will be the foundation of a staunch and stable government. And so, as we enter this new age. we must con- template these problems and sohe them wiseh . We must become united in a powerful chain of democratic. truK deinocralic. people — free from sii pirion III an other nalion. Vc aif ihc be- ginning link in llic cliain llial i lo be (lev cloiu il. Let us not break this imperati e chain. 21 WAITING Jean Holcomh, ' 47 WHOO — wlioo — whoo. The six-thirty freight passed by the shun district and seemed to act as some sifinal for the remaining people on the already-darlieiiing streets. Stores were clos- ing, window shades were drawn, and small rag- ged boys and girls faded through dingy door- ways for supper. Over the shrill whistle of the disappearing train a loud call was heard. Tullie. hey Tuffie! You comin ' in or aren ' t you? Come on, hurry up. I ' ve got some news for you! This conversation was directed to a small, ragged seven- ear-old boy who was lingering at the end of the street, talking with the fellas. His name. Tuffie, well suited him because, in ad- dition to the fact that he did resemble a little toughie. with his ragged shirt, drooping knickers, and well-worn shoes, a large tuft of golden hair stood on end on top of the slightly-square head. Comin, ' Dannie, comin ' ! Just a sec. will ya? After a few last words he sped down the street and ' burst into his small tw o-room tenement house. In the front room, which served as living-room, dining-room and bedroom, there were two cots, a large cabinet, and a table where magazines, most- ly Superman and Bat-Man comic books of the most recent date, were treasured. The back room was so small that only a small portable electric stove, a sink and table could be used. But it was home to Tuffie and Dannie — some- thing to cling to. now especially, since their par- ents had been killed in an automobile accident. Dannie and Tuff were all that remained of the De Vine family and as Pop used to say. It ' s a darn good name to live up to. Dannie, eighteen, who had quit high school when sixteen, had the brunt of the responsibility on his shoulders. Tuffie, at the age of seven, could hardly help Dannie support either of them. Dannie had been working in Woody ' s Garage for two years, and although Tuff didn t have everything, he certainly was healthy and happy. After Tuffie had burst into the room, he ex- claimed. Hi, Dannie! Where are ya? What ' s for dinner? What ' s the great news ya got for me? Can the gang come up Saturday? Have ya got tonight ' s comics yet? Whoa, there, one at a time. Tuff! I ' m out in the kitchen, and if you ' ll come out here, you ' ll know vvhal s fm dinner. I ' csidi ' s. I Wiinl lo talk with ( n. Tiillif looked up in ?«Mipiise. Il was very sel- dom that Dannie asked lo talk lu him. Thev al- ways were just fooling or talking about the local baseball teams and Tuffie ' s chances of being first- baseman of the Wild Wolves. And every night they would count his pennies for the cocker spaniel he dreamed of. 0. K. Be right there, Tuff said. As he sat down at the well-worn kitchen table, Dannie said. Well. Tuff, here ' s the tiews. What would you think if I said I was going to join the Army? The Army!! Gee whiz, do you really mean it? I mean, golly, gee, the Army ! ! Maybe you ' ll meet pirates and mow ' em down with your tom- my gun. Then you can pull out your sword like General Lee ' s and swish — off goes a pirate ' s head! Send me home a pirate ' s head, will ya, huh? Tuffie exclaimed. Hey, now, wait a minute! Where did you get such ideas anyway? Besides, don ' t get so excited. I don ' t even know if I ' m going yet. In fact, it ' s really up to you, Tuff. You see, you ' d have to live up at the Home in the country if 1 did. Would you be willing to do that. Tuff? asked Dannie. The orphanage, Dannie? You mean the or- phanage: don ' t you? You want me to live in the orphanage without you, Dannie? Gee, golly, I couldn ' t live without you. You couldn ' t leave me up there all alone! exclaimed Tuff. All right. Tuffie, I ' m going to leave it up to you. But please don ' t call it an orphanage. Tuff, because it isn ' t. All the boys and girls living there are waiting for someone. Don ' t you see? You ' d just be waiting for me. that ' s all. Tell me your answer in the morning, will you? Now, forget about it and come on! Let ' s eat! About six-thirty the following morning. Tuffie slipped out of bed and woke Dannie. Lving awake in the night, he had decided that if Dan- nie wanted to fight, he could live in the Home for just a little while. The decision had been a hard one, as could clearly be seen by the dark circles and red eyes on Tuff ' s strained face. Psst, hey, Dannie, wake up. I ' ve decided. Dannie ' s head rose groggily off the pillow, and seeing Tuff, he sat up quickly. You sure. Tuff? Positively sure? asked Dannie. Sure, I ' m sure! You go ahead and fight the ol i piialcs and llicri come back and jicl nii-. O. K., Dainiit-y ' askrd iuH. Sine, and tluuiks, Tutl. You bel youi l)0(it. I II be back as .soon as 1 can and gel you, replied Dannie. 22 The next two weeks were busy for Dannie, and they went much too fast. After Dannie had left and after his first few weeks of complete lone- liness, Tuff came to like the other boys at the Home, but best of all he liked Pat. Pat was also seven, but unlike Tuff was very dark, quiet and serious. They would often talk about Dannie and Pete. Pat ' s older brother. Pat understood how Tuff worshipped Dannie, and they often talked about how they wanted to join the Army — TufTie, the Tank Corps like Dannie, and Pat the Air Corps, like Pete. Whenever a letter arrived. Miss Davers. the nice lady as Tuff call- ed her, helped Tuff with the hard words and then he would run and read the letter with Pat. One day Tuff received an unusually thick let- ter from Dannie, only it was from France, not New York! He ran quickly and told Pat the news. Pat, where are you? Pat! Come quick! yelled Tuffie. Here I am, over here by the swings. What ' s the matter? replied Pat. Tuffie ran quickly over and said in short breaths. ' Dannie, he ' s in France with his tank. Golly, he ' s where all the Germans are. Wow! I ' ll bet he ' ll be a hero! Don ' t cha bet. Pat? Boy, I wish I was there with him. Maybe he ' d let me drive the tank; don ' t ya think so. Pat? He says he ' s sending me something! ! Gosh, what could it be? Maybe it ' s a shell or something, think so? Or a rifle, or jeepers! — maybe even part of a German uniform! exclaimed Tuff. Gee. I don ' t know. Tuff, but I bet it ' s some- thing nice if Dannie sends it. Here ' s hopin ' it comes soon, said Pat. Boy, I hope so too, but come on ; lunch is re ady! Tuff suggested. Tuffie had been at the Home for three vears when the news about Dannie came. At first Tuff couldn ' t believe that Dannie was gone, but Miss Davers had tried to explain it to him. He couldn ' t understand, however, and went to Pat. Say, Pat, what Miss Davers told me wasn ' t true: was it? It just means that he ' s gone back to where I used to live and wants me to meet him, doesn ' t it? Golly. Pat. maybe I ' d better go now, said Tuff, his mouth trembling. Go ahead. Tuffie. I ' ll tell Miss Davers after you ' ve gone, and then she won ' t find you until you get to Dannie, suggested Pat. Tuffie found a way to run awa) from the Home during the night. He reached the old gloom house and ran (|uickh up the rickety stairs. TliP followint nit ' iil. Miss Davers found Tuff at iiis old tciiemeiU house deep in the shuns. He was asleep in Dannie ' s old chair, and his tear- stained face was strained from exhaustion. In one hand was an envelope that he must have re- ceived just before he had run away. In his other hand he clutched the long-waited-for en- velope labeled SURPRISE. Miss Davers gent- ly took the large envelope from Tuffie ' s clenched fist, and opened it. A large photograph, a pho- tograph of a tank, fell out. and lettered on it clearly was Tuffie I. On the photograph Dan- nie had written, Dear Tuffie, — The fellows and 1 have decided that Tuffie is a well-earned name for our tank as we have found it can be de- pended upon almost as well as I can depend on you. We are all proud of you. Tuff, and don ' t forget to stay where you are. I ' ll come back and get you soon. Love, Dannie AN AMERICAN CEMETERY May Manning, ' 46 The sound of taps comes sweet and clear on the evening breeze. The sentry takes his ap- pointed post. This is not just another routine da in an armv camp, for the men out here will never again heed the sharp, clear notes of reveille or the bark of the sergeant ' s voice. Their job is done for- ever. They are the American dead. They fell in battle on this very spot. And here they will re- main, forever, all united in the one common bond of death. These men who lie here did not die in vain. They died for an ideal, the ideal that all men are created equal, no matter whether they were born to the splendor of riches, the average middle class, or to lowly poverty. In their hearts a fire of freedom burst into flame, and that flame carried them into battles that led to death. There is no racial prejudice to mar the sad- dening beauty of this place. As vou look down into the valle . the rows upon rows of white crosses are etched against the deepening sky. Men from all races and walks of life sleep peace- fully here; Brown, the kid from the rolling farm lands of Iowa, who had never been to a beach in his life except when his assault boat landed that early morning not so long ago; Spinelli, the kid from the west side of Chicago; and ly- ing between them Goldberg, the boy from the ghettos of INew York. His cross is different from the rest, for on top of his rests the star of David. If ye break faith with us who die. we shall not sleep. That ' s how the poem goes. If we break faith, the hosts of gallant dead will rise from llicir liallowi-d ground and poini their a (Usin;_ ' lingers al n--. a hs ucuk anrl sirive lo hold ((111 newly-vvon pt-ace. Lei us never foj- gel what they died for, or we shall be forevej danuied lo the living hell that is known as war. 23 OUR UNIVERSAL LANGUAGE Annette MiUiken, ' 47 Did you ever slop to think how many times we converse intelligibly without speaking a word of English, French, Chinese or whatever lan- guage is native to our tongues? We have another form of expressing ourselves which might be termed the only common langu- age known to all men of the world. It consists of sighs, gasps, grunts, groans, — all the eee s, alt ' s, eek ' s, ha-ha s, yo-ho ' s, a-ha ' s, ugh ' s, oh ' s, or other inarticulate sounds we might utter in an otherwise speechless moment. Didn ' t the club held by the ancient caveman result in many a grunt or groan from the fairer sex? I ' ve also heard that Cleopatra caused many a sigh or ah in her day, as did Helen of Troy. The only utterance Napoleon could manage after Waterloo was ugh and I really don ' t think that was the Indian blood in the little general ex- pressing itself either. It was simply the bitter taste of defeat being ably conveyed. A bottle of rum and a hearty yo-ho represent one of the lustiest characters in our history, Captain Kidd. And I imagine when a mouse rustled the skirts and petticoats of any 17th century lady, a nice healthy eek followed, or perhaps an eee depending on how near the lady was to a faint. When near to collapsing, one might find it too strenuous to say eek and utter an eee , since only the vowel sound is used. Now, thinking this over slowly and clearly, we can understand that our bobby-soxers do not express themselves with any more originality than did the most ancient and wise philosopher. They are not acting like silly adolescents. They are just speaking the oldest and best known lan- guage existing on our earth. THE MUSIC FESTIVAL Donald McPherson, ' 46 This year, for the first time since the outbreak of the war, the annual Spring Festival of the New England Music Association was held in New Britain, Connecticut. Students from all over New England were chosen to attend the four-day meeting. Earl Merritt and I attended from the Scituate High School. At five o clock on llic day of our ai t ival llictc was a iiciicial mcclitig of llic six liuiiilrfd repre eiilalivfh in the immense high school audi- loiiiiiii. lliMC vvf were given a slioil iecliire on cundut t and curfew hours. Tlien the i ush be- gan. The band totaled one hundred sixty-three, and covered a stage about ten times the size of Scituate ' s stage. We practiced three times a day, our rehearsal time averaging about six hours daily. One of the hardest things the band as a whole had to learn was to play softly. Most of us were used to playing as loud as we could. Mr. Dorr, our conductor, was excellent; he knew just what he wanted and how to get it. By Fri- day afternoon, when we gave our first concert for the high school and grade pupils, we really sounded professional. I wouldn ' t have believed that such excellent music could be played by high school students. There was also a three-hundred-voice chorus and a full-sized symphony orchestra of one hun- dred twenty-five. We managed to hear a few re- hearsals of the two other organizations, and they were both excellent. The string section of the orchestra actually rivaled that of a professional symphony. The chorus was very impressive with three hundred voices singing a capella. For a full appreciation of the festival, it should be seen and heard first-hand. Words are entirely inadequate to describe the marvellous cooperation and spirit of the group. I shall always remember my participation as a wonder- ful musical experience. CALL ME A TAXI Alette Dolan, ' 48 Most people consider us teen-agers as jitter- bugging, line-slinging jabberwocks who ex- change corny comments over the soda fountain. Up to two weeks ago I considered this a legend; I certainly didn ' t know any of these people until . . . I walked into Joe ' s Drug Store one Thursday afternoon, and there they sat, their legs wrapped around the drug store stools. Shoot the dirt, Myrt, he said to his compan- ion. Well, it ' s this way, she related. Then glanc- ing up at me, she command ed, Grab a stool, fool! Feel like a coke? Sure, I replied, wishing to be friendly. Well, you don ' t look like one! she com- mented. Dccidiiii: llial Fd liavc lo s|)cm(1 my owti tiirklc. 1 aiowlcil Well. on can join nie in n (idass nf vvalcr. ' O. K. Bui }(iu jump ill iirsl and sec how deep it is. 24 ®Hme§ Then her friend, finding a victim, said, I guess you don ' t know what time it is. No, I bit. What time is it? Ten to. Ten to what? Ten to your own business! In mortification I busied myself with my coke while Myrt shot the dirt. It seems that some goon, a really slow Joe, asked Emma to the rat race, she related. She really hankered to go with that mellow fellow. Jim Daniels, so she ditched the hitch and missed the pitch and now she has the blight for the night. As Myrt ran down, her friend picked up the conversation. What a tearful earful. he com- mented. But don ' t look sick, chick. Have some gum. chum. ' He must have looked up at me then, for he added. Don t stare, square. Leave your chair and take the air! And so I staggered out, before the loony lin- go of this gruesome twosome swept me off my feet, but reet ! FEATHERED FRIENDS ]ean Tohin, ' 49 Have }ou ever stopped to look at the birds around you? And have you noticed how they are marked? Only Mother Nature can produce such beautiful effects. Take a common bird like the starling, for instance. You might say he is not pretty, but have you ever seen him in the sun? 1 bet you haven ' t. One of the prettiest birds I have ever seen is the evening grosbeak. He is a large, rather fat, short-tailed bird, about the size of a starling. The large bill and the yellowish color make him known at once. He flies like a finch with the characteristic up-and-down flight. The gold- finch also flies this way. The grosbeak is some- times known as an over-grown goldfinch. The evening grosbeak is different from the pine grosbeak because he has a much shorter tail. Large, white wing-patches are revealed when he flies. The snow bunting is the only oth- er northern finch showing so much white. Until about three years ago, the evening gros- beak was never known to be found in Massachu- setts, that is, in any great number. You can always tell when he arrives, for he comes with a bang. One usualy comes alone and then he leaves; ne [ ihe whole group comes. Tliey are rather nois birds, especially on Saturday morn- ings when one likes to sleep. They stay around luilil about Apiil and then they start back north. These birds are the worst sunflower eaters I have ever seen. They come in groups ranging from twenty to forty each day. One day I count- ed sixty. During the three or four months they are around, they will eat about one hundred pounds of sunflower seeds. An article in the paper recently mentioned their eating salt. They never seem to eat the salt I put out for them. The evening grosbeaks are such interesting birds that I enjoy having them on my yearly bird list. THE FAMILY CAR Robert Devine, ' 47 The immortal body of steel that goes on through the ages, suffering, straining, pursuing a life of service to its master, — that ' s our family car. When it was a young body just germina- ting from the seed of raw iron in the huge Ford factory, it was something to be proud of. Gradually it developed into a deluxe model of man ' s most modern road-traveling vehicle. It provided boundless joy when the young man of the family drove to school dances and to other meeting places of the younger set. or when the family proudly displayed it going to work or church. But, alas, as the years have passed, it has slowly, reluctantly succumbed to the feeble- ness of old age. Dont laugh, but just look at that surface finish. It was once a radiant blue-black with shiny chromium in contrast, but now it ' s just a conglomeration of indefinable colors and com- pounds. The window s I except for those in the front and rear ) that were once of the purest glass have since been replaced by cardboard, bearing various trademarks and color prints of soap and cereal adv ertisements. The seats, which were once of multi-colored straw-, are now drab: and protruding from various points are bunches of hair-filling. The heater is nice to have, but we never did get around to having it connected. The radio is a fine addition, and if it performed as all good radios should. I ' m sure more than just static would be produced. Deprived of a gasket, the car doesn ' t produce much power in operation. Minus a generator, inexcusably not replaced, it frequently has a change of batteries at no little expense. The windshield-wiper runs continu- ously, with a loud hiss — except in rainy weath- er. The headlights cast a huge black shadow inslead of iheir siipposed-illuminaling beams. Kegar lle s of lliese iiandicaps it will doiibl- le?sl go uii through the ages, contiiuiing lo hold il proud place upon the highways. Long li e the indomitable famils car! 25 BAND FiKbT Row : R.

SCHOOL NOTES Nancy Wyman, 47 THIS is the first publication of the Chimes since the termination of the war. We cele- brated peace by the return of Mr. Calkin, our school principal, who had been in the Army since 1942. We awaited his discharge with an- ticipation, and now we would all like to extend a hearty welcome to him. We also would like to commend Mr. Nelson for the fine work he did in Mr. Calkin ' s absence. Even though the war has ended, the govern- ment has urged us to corititme (he sale of bonds atid stamps. Allliougfi lh sale has recently been catiicd (ui only twice a nionlh instead of once a week. v had liouglil $ !.21 ).7.5 worth, to April I.

Anulhci vvai a( livily caily in ihc year was in response lo an Lirgcnl apjjcal Iroin the laiincrs to the S. H. S. boys to help save the tomato crop from an early frost which was expected. There were many volunteers, and the tomato crop was saved. The Junior Red Cross has continued its work in the school under the leadership of Miss Mary Kingsbury. Collections were taken for both the Junior Red Cross and regular membership drives. Fifty gift boxes were filled by the Household Arts girls. Some checker boards and Chinese checker boards were made for hospitals, by the boys in the Manual Training classes under the direc- tion of Mr. Dodge and painted by members of the Art Dcparlrncnl (uider the supervision of Miss Rowell. In September the Glee Club was reorganized under the supervision of Miss Reynolds. There was a much larger turn-out this year, with a lolal of sev(;nty-four girls eniolling. They sang in Showlioal IVI itisi rcis ' in INovcmiIk i- and real- Is (lid a gl and job. I ,asl Deccinhrr ihcy sui prised everyone by singing Christmas carols in the corridors during the first period.

In January a Boys ' Glee Club with a membership of 25. was formed under Miss Reynolds ' direction. At the present time the combined groups are working on numbers for the graduation exercises and also for an assem- bly. This year the band, under the direction of Mr. Leach, has done well in spite of all the draw- backs. He lost a good percentage of the band last year, either through graduation or transfer to other schools. This year ' s group is small, but it has done an unusually fine job. The newest addition to the band was fifteen bright and cheery drum majorettes! Of course, this was too many in proportion to the band, so some intend to pla instruments when they are available. It may take a year or two to organize this group, but when it ' s ready, it will be a great attraction at Scituate High. Latel the band has been preparing to give a concert with several special- ty numbers and solo numbers. Recently when they were marching out-of-doors, Mr. Leach took some moving pictures of the band and drum ma- jorettes in action. The most important aim of this group is to get bigger and better as the years go on. The dances lliis year on the wliole have been very succe. fui. The Seniors preseutrd a uundei- fid foolliall (lance on INttvembcr 10. Among the decorations thei ' e were paper footballs bearing the name of each boy on the team. The music was ably provided by Bob Ferris. On December 14. the Juniors followed by giving a Christmas dance, complete with a Christmas tree and Santa Claus. Among the festivities of the evening was the crowning of Debbie Andrews as queen and Dick Flaherty as king. Jimmy Rago and his or- chestra provided the music. During the basket- ball season both the Freshmen and the Sopho- mores planned to give a dance following the games. The Sophomores succeeded in having one after the Cohasset games on February 15 with Don Leach and his orchestra. But snow-storms and basketball tourneys made it difficult for the Freshmen to settle their date. Finally they pre- sented their dance on February 28. Because of the indefinite date there wasn ' t as large a crowd as usual, but those present had a wonderful time dancing to Al Howe s music. As the final social events of the year the Juniors sponsored the Junior Prom and the Senior Reception. There were many girls out for cheerleaders this ear, and during the basketball season even some boys. There were so man that thev were divided into a line and a huddle. The line con- sisted (.1 Jane O ' Neill. Janice OAeill. Amiette iVIilliken. l els IVygs. (;hid N Hill. Amielaine Limper.

They helped eheer the teams on to the victories of the season. There has been a new custom added to Scituate lligii in the presentation of an assembly by each class. Tiie Seniors started with a Christmas assembly on December twenty-first. Don Mc- I ' herson as Santa Glaus presented gifts, and we sang Christmas carols. In January the Juniors put on a comical musical radio program, com- plete with a Spike Jones orchestra. The whole thing was riot with the Juniors having as good a time as t ' .ie audience. In April the Sophomores sponsored an interesting program. The Freshmen assembly on May 7, was an old-fashioned comedy and dancing play. On September 27. there was a very inter- esting lecture by Col. C. Wellington Furlong, on the subject ' The Passing of the Old West. On October 11. Miss Elva Novelle, a harpist, told us something of the origin of the harp and gave a recital. On November 9, we had our annual Armistice Day assembly. Safety on the Highways was presented on November 27. The first assemblv after the Christmas vacation was an interesting talk by Stephen Frichman on Youth Today. The highlight of the year was the assembly that was put on by the musical mem- bers of the faculty. This was first given at a Parent-Teacher Association meeting, and was so well-liked that it was requested for the benefit of the student body. Miss Dorothy Maxim, Miss Gertrude Reynolds. Mrs. Emma Damon, Mrs. Owen Frvling, Mr. Harold Cole, and Mr. Leroy Fuller presented an excellent program of piano solos, duets, quartets, and sextets; and Mr. Leach played a trumpet selection. On February 12, there was an assembly that left us all with the intention of sailing around the world in a sail- boat we built ourselves. Yes, that ' s just what two boys did. and one of them came and told us of the Voyage of Volita. Mr. Lloyd Bemis in February showed us some beautiful slides on The Lure of the Lakes. March 1, C. Findley Bowser left us breathless with his mov- ies and talk on mountain climbing. To intro- duce the annual Red Gross Drive, Miss Helen Fogg of Norwell gave a very entertaining talk on her experiences with the Red Cross. On March 21 Alonzo Pond presented a lecture with slides on Torchlight ..II Cold Trails. In April Mr. Laurence 1,. Ilaibcr gave ;in illiisl rali-d lc liii ' on New Englanil Today. In May we liati some movies enlillt ' d News Parade, Tootliall Paj- ade, and a singing film. We ' ve had some very interesting and instructive assemblies. The art department, for the second year, mad( linoleum cuts for a school calendar. This year they used typical scenes from the South Shore. The classes have been doing everything from charcoal sketches to water color painting. They have entered several contests so far, but none of the results have been announced, so we don ' t know yet whether or not we have any winners. Have you noticed any of the well-made and becoming dresses the girls have been displaying throughout the school year? In the household arts departinent, the girls have made many clothes and the cooking classes have served luncheons to the members of the faculty. AH in all, this has been a very exciting and enjoyable year.

IT would be hard to miss this gal with her snapping brown mischievous eyes and her wide humorous grin. She ' s an illustrious senior, but I can ' t imagine how she ever made the grade, she ' s always so tardy in everything else. But she ' s improving, or is it because she can drive the car to school this year when she misses the bus, ( which is hardly ever, I assure you. ) She ' s usu- ally everywhere at once, but if by chance you don ' t see her, you can alua)s hear her giggling somewhere. Now you must know who she is! P. S. She likes beans. « ♦ « If you should drop in to 209 at 9:15. you would see this character. He is a mechanical genius who fiddles with everything from a cig- arette-lighter to nitroglycerin. One of his inter- esting hobbies is fooling publishing companies, — oops! almost gave him away. I ' ll give one more hint though for those of you who don ' t already know. He pals around with the fellow who sits behind him.  « When this gal first entered Scituate High School in her freshman year, she was well- known for her shy and innocent manner, but times have changed since then ! She is noted for her acting ability and for the crack about her fav- orite basketball referee being the one in the black and white striped shirt. I guess her fav- orite song in DANNY BOY. Oh. how can you help but know who she is now? This fellow is a senior. He plays basketball, football and is an enthusiastic Boy Scout. He has a beautiful cow-lick, so his blond hair just refuses to stay in place, and his blue eyes are always sparkling with some sort of devilishment. He pla s the drums and used to take piano les- sons, but he claims the teacher just gave up. He ' s famous for his home-made swimming pool. Do )ou need any more hints now ? Pop! Bang! Smash! Here they come: so look out! These two bo)s of the sophomore class are well-known for their mischief and devilishment. W henever trouble is brewing, you can be sure they had something to do with it. The smaller half of this team has red hair and of course the traditional freckles that go along with it. He was UiihM-lni Inr ' ihc foolball Icam this year and will In- lorcvt i known for his pari iti llie junior a ;-einl)l . The olhei ' half ol this Mutl and Jeff set-up is decided!) taller than his part- ner; he has dark hair and a most delightful sort of leaping walk. He used to work as a soda jerker at the Harbor. If you don ' t know who this combination is now, you ' ll just have to ask someone. « This junior boy is noted for his unusual nick- name, and for his unending pranks. I ' m sure he wouldn ' t be at home unless he was on the foot- ball field every year playing quarter-back. Every- one knows him, and if you don ' t, well, that ' s too bad, for you really should have his friendship on your list. « « This certain 203 freshman boy is tall, and has a medium build. He has brown hair and blue eyes. His name really shouldn ' t be what it is, but Scientific Brain instead. He is a whiz in all sorts of science and is always experimenting and talking — period. P. S. He ' s also a camera fiend. ■  He ' s tall and has brown wavy hair, a charac- teristic all the girls love. You ' ve seen this dash- ing senior in the baseball infield, on the basket- ball court, and on the football field. He s known for the nick-name Cuddles. We can ' t guess why. Perhaps it has something to do with ' ' Cumfy. ' Now ' don ' t tell me you don ' t know who it is.   The senior class is proud to claim this vivaci- ous blonde with fetching green eyes. She ' s as sweet as her face foretells and as pleasant as her every expression. She takes music lessons, and has a beautiful ()ice. She ' s one of the beauties of the class and quite an engaging lass. This one isn ' t hard, is it?   He ' s the senior class comic and is quite a wit. His cartoons keep us laughing: his quips keep us gay. He sits by the hour, no matter where he is. drawing pictures of some engaging lass. His imagination is superb. ou never can guess what will take shape next in this Irishman ' s mind. He ' s the Harbor s pride and the Senior ' s joy. You certainly know this hilarious boy.  This gay little freshman claims her hair real- ly isn ' t red but we all know better. She is one of those rare people who can get an A in Latin — and in everything else for that matter. She wears briiihl colors wliii h forever ki ' eji her spir- its up. and she can be seen in the arl-rooin al- in(jst an litni; of day. (ionic on, all this one ' s easy ! 32 ®DDIM€§ JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL NEWS NOTES Nancy Breen, 8 A Charles Mahon, 8B Stop ! Look ! and Listen ! On September 5, 1945, when school opened, sixty-five very important individuals entered the Junior High School door. They were the eighth grade. For most of the boys manual training was new. Mr. Dodge helped the boys build book- ends, etc.; and although many had never worked with power tools, they managed quite well. Movies, which help the students to better un- derstand a particular study, were shown in Miss Maxim ' s geography class. Film strips have been shown by Mrs. Williams to aid in the study of American history. An English Club was formed under the direc- tion of Miss Cunneen. It was known as The Know and Speak Better English Club. The meet- ings are usually he ld once a week when inter- esting topics are discussed. The use of the mi- crophone stimulates interest in the meetings. Room 202 (8B) was one of the first in the building lo top the $300 quota in the recent War Bond drive. Total sales were about $800. In the recent magazine drive Room 201 (BA) collected the greatest number of subscriptions. A prize of an American flag was awarded to 8A for their effort. Intramural basketball teams were organized by Coach Dixon. At the close of the season Donald Bickford ' s team, the Buzzards, was proclaimed the junior high champions. WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT THE SEVENTH GRADE? John Goodnow, 7 A Lois Merrill, 78 On Wednesday, September 5, seventy-five happy-go-lucky boys and girls entered Scituate High. We were a bit flustered at first, but soon got used to it, and now we are old-timers. We sold magazines for the Curtis Publishing Company, and the seventh grade sold $108 worth with captains Harold McAvenia for 7B and Susan Anderson for 7A. Room 102 came out second. Our English Club was loads of fun with many amusing topics. The tnicrophotie helped correct some 1)1 iiiir s|)t ' i-(h errors lor ihcy sdmidcrl worse when heard tlirmij ' .ii the loud spe;ikt-r. We wen; jjroud lo have Jolin Caliii ;ni(l .jolin (ioodnow make high honors. Familiar sounds at school this year were the barking of David LaVange ' s dog and the drip- ping of water through the ceiling in Room 101 during frequent storms. Ellen O ' Neil, Fannie Wharf, Bruce Wyman and John Goodnow sang in the all-school play The Showboat Minstrels. We lost one member of the class, who moved to Weymouth. Pupils perfect in attendance for the half year are Jean Carlson, Letty Richards, Joe Cerilli, Robert Burbank. Robert Morrow, David La- Vange, Joe Lopes, Richard Preston. John Dav- is, Jack Stark, Roy Spear, John Cahir, John Goodnow. Robert Heywood and Ralph Fuller. An inquisitive little boy named Robert Frazer asked Miss Cunneen for a book with an appendix in it. That gave us a laugh, although of course it was quite correct. An amusing incident happened when the ath- letic field froze and Charles Noble ripped his pants. When he returned from Miss Kings- bury ' s repair shop. Miss Maxim inquired, Everything whole. Charlie? We have enjoyed sound movies on geography and hygiene. Many of us went skating on the athletic field when it froze. Betty Whittaker and others showed us some beautiful skating. RED STALLION Sandra Smith, SB Deep in the plains of the West lies a gullv unknown to human beings. In this secret haven filled with lush green grass fed by a bubbling stream a herd of sleek, brown mares and spring colts were grazing to their heart ' s content. A few feet from this brood stood a chestnut stal- lion, ears alert to every sound of danger. His mane, unlike the others, bore ancient signs of being clipped. Many years ago he had escaped from a cattle ranch and had found the hidden gullv and the fort} or more mares. Their leader, a black stal- lion, had just died from a wound received in a fall. The mares, crazed with fear, stampeded, neighing loudly. The stallion snorted and pawed the ground. Suddenly he galloped after the mares nipping the flanks of the stragglers. He soon had lh( tn undct ' order and his shrill, |)roud. nciL ' li i(is ' I riiiniplianlly ovci ihc rolliuL ' hill -. Soiiii ilif ' v inlet wiiiils came and llie mare, revv thin iiccause theii ' ( idy Mican ol gelling food uas lo paw the snow until ihey reached 33 the dry brown grass. Tlie liaH littlo trouble from wolves as those creatures must have known the strength of the mighty stallion. After a long, hard winter the green grass began to show and the stream once more flowed merrily on its way. In a few months the stallion would have a new responsibilily as the spring colts would be born. In May the first group came, six fillies and seven colts. The last year ' s colts, now yearlings, were proud to be no longer the youngest of the brood. The colts grew fast and soon were able to canter along with their mothers without tiring. Their stubbv manes and tails were beginning to grow out and their short bodies began to match the length of their legs. One da in the hottest months of summer the red stallion was standing belly deep in the stream, chewing on some cover-tops, wh en the old lead mare snorted as if danger was near. He plunged out of the stream and looked down the valley, where he saw a lone horse, trotting through the passage. W ith a shrill neigh he rounded up the mares and colts and sent them to a safer distance. He then advanced toward the intruding stallion and stood his ground with muscles tensed. The oth- er edged around the chestnut and eyed the huddled mares. Red. his stallion instinct over- powering him. rushed for the intruder and sent a swift kick into his right flank. The former wheeled and sent back another kick which left its mark on Red ' s shoulder. After an hour ' s battle one stallion lay dead and the other tired but triumphant. Today the red stallion s face is flecked with white but his mighty heart is still strong and his spirit will live forever. SPRING Mary Susan. Smith, 8B Down in the valley where the pussy willows grow, Tim little buds are beginning to show, And under the tall spruce so blue 1 he little snowdrops are pushing up through. All these things and the birds that sing. Tell me it must already be spring. THE SEA GULL Frances Sanders, 8B The sea gull is a noisy bird That wings the ocean wide, In all his long and swooping flight. He seeks the ebbing tide. Thrnutih the nighl and ihroupii ihc day I pull his lonely, tiresome way. In foaming surf his wings he dips As he trails along with the plowing ships. THE MYSTERY OF THE HAUNTED LIGHTHOUSE Artliur Dunpliy, 7 A Through a thick fog we heard the sound of a fog horn, which was not at all strange, for we were right on the sea shore. But somehow the horn didn ' t sound as usual, but resembled the weird horn of the haunted lighthouse off the coast. Tom said I was just imagining things, but I couldn ' t forget that sound. We went down to the pier. Were we sur- prised to see a terrified expression on the fish- ermen ' s faces! When we asked what was wrong, a man told me that a keeper of the light was killed there. He swore that he would haunt the light forever, and when the horn blew, someone would die. Getting into my motor launch, we left for the light. On the way Tom called my attention to a newspaper in the boat. There was an EXTRA on it. and it read SMUGGLING GOING ON. ON EAST COAST. I quickly turned back to the harbor. Going to shore, we told the police our story. He got the police launch and with Tony Amati, the leader of the fishermen, we set out once more for the haunted lighthouse, telling Tony what we had found in the police files and from the clues already known. We cut our motor a good hundred feet so we wouldn ' t be heard. Entering the lighthouse, we crept up a steep narrow staircase, to the room where the horn was located. There we took the gang of smugglers by surprise. In the cellar we found boxes of diamonds marked AFRICA. This was proof enough to sentence the whole gang to twenty years, in the Massachusetts State Penitentiary. Later the gang confessed to using the legend of the lighthouse as a cover-up to keep people away while they smuggled diamonds.

Girls ' Field Hockey Anne Heffernan. ' 46 The Scituate girls ' field hockey team once again fought through tough opposition to tie with Hanover for the distinguished title of South Shore Champions. The girls were given strong com- petition bv most of the teams, but they proved their skill by coming out victorious. The most difficult game of the season was with Hanover, when both teams scored one goal in the second half to tie the game and also the championship. High scorers for the ear were Pat Manning, with six goals: Annette Milliken, with five; Ruth Whittaker, with one: and Giimy Mongeau, with one. Without ihe well-timed passing of Pat Cahir. Thelma Jenkins and Peggy Cole from wing, and the strong defense of Jean Holcomb, Carole Dunphy, and Anne Heffernan at halfback position, our scoring would not have been as good. Our liillliacks.

In the first game with Pembroke the girls met defeat, but that must have been the needed medi- cine, for after that they raced on to victory. The hardest games of the season were with Hanover, but after a hard fight Scituate won both games. We had a great star in Lois Karvonen. who was high scorer for the ear. with 183 points. Jean Prouty was unbeatable with her height, scoring 70 points. Ginnie Mongeau played a fast game, scoring 30 points. Ruth Whittaker started the year off as forward, but was later changed to guard. The other first team for- wards were Anne Heffernan. Anne McKenzie, Pegg) Cole, and Pat Cahir. The effectiveness of the guarding of Pat Manning, INancy Wyman, and Cvnthia Chadbourne was proved by the small scores made by the opponents. The other guards, Debbie Andrews, Barbara Tindall.

The Junior Varsity team showed great skill and promised good material for future teams. Betty Welch proved to be a very pleasant and capable manager. We owe our victorious season to the unceas- ing effort of Miss Vines. We all appreciate it and wish to thank her very much.

The boys were excellent in form, but they were playing against heavier and larger teams. The first gaine of the season was with Somer- set. This team was fairl well-matched w ith ours. Both teams battled out there on the field, but neither one could score until the very last two minutes of play. Scituate, on its own goal line, had to kick to get out of danger. Charlie Vick- er faded back and kicked the pigskin. A Som- erset man blocked it and it fell behind our end- zone. He downed it and the whistle blew. The result was Scituate 0, Somerset 2. Our next game was with a much heavier and larger team, Barnstable. The boys play ed a won- derful game, but were no match foi such a heavy l( ' ;im. R.-irnsLiblc walked nW llie lieid w ith a 2 lu 0 iclor . The next game v as v ith Kingston. club had been having the same luck as we. The were a ery light team and entirely green to the game. The blue and white walked off the field with a 25 to 0 victory under their belt. The back field made some beautiful runs that day, and the line wasn ' t doing badh either. There were a lot of tackles made by all. Thanksgiving rolled around, and it was time to pla our traditional rival. Cohasset. Captain Barrows of Cohasset made a beautiful 30- ard run to score. They failed to get the extra point. I hen Scituate had its turn. Scituate ' s own Charlie ickerx tliiew a Ijcautiful pass to Budd Jenkins, who ran fort) ards for a touchdown, tying the game.

Basketball Charles Vickery, ' 46 In spile of losing three first-team members by graduation last June, Scituate High came through the ' 46 season with a record of ten wins and four defeats. Two of the outstanding games of the year were with Marshfield. After losing 36 to 34 at Marsh- field, we beat theni 62 to 22 on our own floor. The passing and teamwork in this game were excellent. The best game of the ear was when Hanover, the South Shore League Basketball Champions, met second-place Scituate in the final game of the season. Behind at the end of the first period by a score of 17 to 11, the Scit- uate boys came to life to bring the score at the half to 22 to 21. w ith Hanover still retaining a very important one-point lead. Hanover surg- ed ahead again and led at the end of the third l)eriod by 37 to 30. The last period proved to be a ery exciting one. The Scituate bo s gave everything they had to win their final game, but in vain, as at the end they still lacked the all-important four points needed to defeat the ' Champs. The final score was Hanover 42, Sciliiatc 3M. In recognition of their fine record, the team was taken to the Eastern Mass. Interscholastic Basketball Tournament at the Boston Garden.

Marshfield, the Shouth Shore League Cham- pions, finished the season with a record of 11 wins and 1 defeat, their only loss being to Scit- uate. The last and best game of the season was against Cohasset. After being behind at the end of the third inning by the score of 3 to 1. the Scituate bo s started to rally and won easily by the score of 16 to 3. The ' 45 team was one of the most impressive baseball teams seen at Scituate High in many years.
