Officers President ; Bob Glynn Vice President Larry Dwyer Secretary J O ' Neill Treasurer Je n Holcomb Section 2. Advisers Mr. Wilcox Miss Rowell ARTICLE III. SPORTS Section 1. Football We want you to know that the reason we came out so well in football is that we had such stars as Bub Jenkins, who made a total of 73 points this season; Buttons Ewell, play- ing his fourth straight year of outstandingly- good, fast football; Vinny Dunphy, Larry Dwyer, Slick Atkins, BoIj Devine, Frankie Cole, Tom Bell, Terry Butler, and Tommy Breen representing the Senior Class. We are all sorry that Bob Glynn was not in there fighting this year, but time waits for no one. Section 2. Boys ' Basketball It was lucky for Scituate that the age limit was extended allowing George Cobbett to play most of the season. He was a great asset to the team, making a grand total of 186 points in 12 games. Terry Biuler was another one of our forwards who was semper in globo. Jimmy Goddard, the lad who broke his glasses in the Cohasset game, proved himself to be a very dependable guard. Vinny Dunphy played a good, fast game of basketball as shown at Hanover. Howard Fettig and Bob Devine certainly did their part to spur the team on! Section 3. Girls ' Hockey Here are the seniors who helped win the South Shore Championship in 1946: Pat Cahir, Cynthia Chadbourne, Ligi Goddard, Jean Holcomb, Pat Manning, Annette Milli- ken, Ginny Mongeau, and Nancy Wyman. Section 4. Girls ' Basketball Calm, cool, collected Jeanie Holcomb; dead-eye Patty Cahir; scoreless Nancy Wy- man; tiny Ginny Mongeau; sparky Deb An- drews; fiery Ligi Goddard; speedy, ever-present Annette Milliken; the point-scoring guard Cynthia Chadbourne; dependable Pat Man- ning; and peppy Shirley Turner dood it again !! They really did! They kept up Scituate girls ' basketball record, winning the Soiuh Shore pennant for the sixth straight year. No, we ' re not forgetting that jimior who ' s a wonderfiU player and all the rest that did more than their share to help us so we could get the championship. Section 5. Cheerleaders Nancy Wyman, Annette Milliken, Ginny Mongeau, Debby Andrews, Glady Hill, and ClliiDMies 5 Annclainc Limpcr spent many a Saturday night last lall soothing their irritated throats. Yes! These were the Senior representatives on the cheerleading s(juad which has been very successfully led by Nancy VVynian lor the past two years. ARTICLE IV. THE ACADEMIC SIDE Section 1. Our State Election We hope we haven ' t led you to believe that we are entirely athletic and not at all aca- demic. On the contrary, we have accom- plished much in oin- classes. We, as history students, included the whole school in a worth-while project to familiarize the entire student body, as well as omselves, with the principles of voting. We conducted an elec- tion within tlie school in which, imitating the state procediue, we voted for the candi- dates in last fall ' s state election. Section 2. Socialized Medicine The Class of ' 47 also brought before the school the all-important question of Social- ized Medicine by putting on two debates in assembly on the topic. Those who partook in these, one for the junior high and one for the high school, were the winners of a series of debates held in class. They were Richie Rencurrel, Terry Butler, Annette Milliken, Debbie Andrews, Bob Devine, Isabelle Mur- phy, Pat Cahir, and Larry Dwyer. Section 3. Honor Students In our class there are a couple of kids who get ail A ' s in their subjects. However, there is one remarkable difference between our geniuses and the usual run, and that is that they ' re both a lot of fun, and don ' t have their noses in a book all the time. In fact, Terry Butler goes out for all the sports (and is good at all of them, by the way) and Annelaine Limper is a cheerleader and has had the lead in many a schoo l play. Good luck, both of you! You ' ll get to the top. Section 4. The Veterans We have two veterans that have come back to dear old S. H. S. Paul Mahoney and John Spange both left school towards the beginning of their senior year, to lielp Uncle Sam, and now they are back to complete their year ' s work. These ex-servicemen deserve a lot of credit. While in the Navy, Dick Dwyer re- ceived the necessary points to graduate, so he also is receiving his diploma with us. ARTICLE V. MISCELLANEOUS Sec rioN 1 . Senior Student Council Members Bob Devine— President. Frank Cole— Vice President Annette Milliken Jean Holcomb Pat Cahir Section 2. The Key Cluh A Key Club was organized this year by the Kiwanis club, and Laurence Dwyer had the honor of being its first president. Four other Seniors, David Mahoney, Bob Devine, Richie Rencurrel, and Jimmy Goddard, have worked to give this organization a good start. Section 3. Our Hearts Were Young and Gay Annelaine Limpcr, as Cornelia Otis Skin- ner, and Debbie Andrews, as Emily Kim- brough, had the leads in the Senior Class play this year. They were ably supported by this all-star cast: Frank Cole, Tom Breen, Janice Tyler, Connie Holland, Jean Holcomb, Vinnie Dunphy, Bob Devine, Laroy Bonney, Howard Fettig, Annette Milliken, Glady Hill, Isabelle Murphy, Terry Butler, Jimmy Goddard, and Nancy Wyman. Section 4. This and That Jimmy and Ligi Goddard have contributed their services to the band, the latter as a baton-twirler. Glady Hill was the one in The H.M.S. Pinafore who kept singing and-so-do-his sis- ters-and-his-cousins-and-his-aunts, remember? Connie Holland also represented the Senior Class as a sailor in the chorus. Bob Devine has been our permanent dance- committee chairman. The Pigskin Party last fall was cleverly done, and very successful. ARTICLE VI. REFLECTIONS Section 1. We wish we could mention all the little things that have made our high school years so enjoyable. We ' ve listened to many a short oration by Terry Butler in English; we ' ve heard Larry Dwyer ' s and Jimmy Goddard ' s witticisms in math; we ' ve witnessed many an argument by Richie Rencurrel in history; we ' ve seen Tommy in physics (need I say more?); you see, we ' ve really enjoyed ourselves along with our work. However, we kno v ' that whether we go on to school, or go directly into business, we shall look back upon these years with the assurance that we have had a firm foundation on which to build.

Now they ' ve completed their high school education And we ' re proud and happy to have them at our graduation. Rif:iiARu Dwyer (Class of 1946) Enlisteil in September 1945; boot training at Bainbridge, Maryland; transferred to Camp Perry, Wil- liamsburg, Virginia; next year spent at the Naval Magazine Depot at Bangor, Washington; now at the submarine base at New London, Connecticut, on the U.S.S. Flying Fish. John Spance (Class of 1943) Entered service 1943; assigned to duty at Camp Commissary, Camp Edwards; transferred to Scotland, May, 1944; two weeks in England; landed in France June 9, 1944, and attached to Engineer Brigade; trans- ferred to Quarter Master Corps for duty in Holland, Germany and Luxembourg. Paul Mahonly (Class of 1945) Entered service 1945; two years with . rmy Paratroops, 8 jiMiips; landed in Europe 1946; two months at Hitler ' s hideout at Bertchesgarten. Once Upon a Time Who would ever guess that one of the babies above would grow up to be the boys ' star basketball player? There ' s one little gal who seems to have anything on her mind but the job ol handling the class money. Oh! Dear! Which lassie looks cpiite fright- ened even then? Coiddn ' t possibly be short- hand at that early date! My, my, I never knew this gal was inter- ested in horses. Always thought she had bas- ketball on her mind. Even then she seemed to be thinking of . . . But how coiUd she? I don ' t believe she knew him then. I see oiu- sailor gal loved the water even then. My goodness! Blonde hair! That is cer- tainly a false clue to the identity of this gal. There ' s one girl you can ' t possibly miss; the resemblance to her now is so-o-o clear. Even then, this gal seems to have had that gleam in her eye. Now just look at that little fella— Who ' d ever guess that he ' d ever grow up to the height of six feet. Which one is which? That ' s the problem. It ' s a famous family of athletic girls. Will you look at those eyes! Of course, you ' ve all noticed they haven ' t changed a bit. Who ' d think one of the girls above would this day have Harvard on her mind? Which of the girls above is today ' s favorite French student? Even then Babe loved the snow!

New additions to the class this year have been Jerry Chandler from Tewks- Ijury, Charles Hurley from Yonkers, New York, Jack Mills from Wellesley, Fay Bissell from Natick, and Janice Taylor from Clarks- ton, Washington. The officers of our class were elected last September, as follows: Eddie Veiga, president; Bub Hurley, vice-president; Margie Gan- nett, secretary; and Dee Parker, treasurer; advisers. Miss Dudley and Mr. Hawes. Many new and interesting topics have been introduced in our classes this year. The members of the second period Latin class have been studying all about Caesar ' s Gallic Wars. (W onder it many of them know the old saying Caesar adsum jam forte. ??) The members of the English classes have been learning from W. Shakespeare that All the world ' s a stage, etc. A few members of the math class are still having trouble finding that bothersome x, but it is not so baffling as it used to be. Tous les jours, nous entrons dans la salle de classe ax ec nos devoirs completed and bid Bonjour to Mademoiselle Harring- ton. Outside of class we have been active too. Several of our members were in H. M. S. Pinafore, and quite a few did well in sports. On February 21, Old Man Winter awoke from his slumbers with a vengeance and pre- sented us with a ripping snow storm. While this gave us an extra day for vacation, it did jjostpone the Freshman-Sophomore Golden Slipper Ball until iVfarch 7. Our sophomore year is drawing to a close, and in the dim distant future summer vaca- tion is once again in the offing; but next Sep- tember we shall return to our desks once again— this time as proud Juniors.

Class of 1950 Sandra Sniilli, Richard Mills ATTENTION, all readers! Presenting the history ot the Freshman Chiss! When school opened September 4, 1946, it was a turning point in the lives of fifty-six individuals. We were now freshmen. We welcomed as new members Marlene Johnson, Richard Mills, George Silipo, and Robert Rose who proved to be a great enthu- siast of basketball. We soon held our first class meeting and chose Mr. Benson and Miss Kingsbury as class advisers. The class officers were elected as follows: Glenn Parker, president; Osborne McMorrow, vice-president; Betty Afurrill, sec- retary; and Nancy Breen, treasurer. Our class was well represented in the pro- duction of Pinafore with George Mitchell and George Whorf in leading roles and many of us as sailors. After a week ' s postponement because of a storm, the Freshman-Sophomore Dance, called The Golden Slipper Ball, was held March 7, and we think it was a great success. In Afiss Gile ' s English Class we organized a hobby club which proved to be quite inter- esting. One Friday Peter Arapoff spoke on his model-airplane collection. He even brought one of his models to class and demon- strated it to prove it really worked. We still have three years ahead of us, which we know will be eventful. Watch for us— the class of 1950. 16 The Future Freshmen! Mary Luce, 8B Last September when the eighth grade proudly entered their new home rooms, they considered themselves quite important, and they had good reason to, for they were enter- ing their last year of junior high and were looking forward to being freshmen. They were a very busy gioup during Febru- ary for many projects were due. Although it was quite a job, the majority of the pupils enjoyed making them. Catherine Arapoff was the subject of con- versation throughout the school when in Feb- ruary her essay on the life of Thomas Edison was chosen as the winning essay in the sur- rounding districts. The contest included only junior high pupils. Warren O ' Shea came close to winning. Catherine and Miss Cun- neen, ovu English teacher, were guests of the Brockton Edison Company, and Catherine was interviewed at station WBET along with the winners from other schools. The eighth grade was very proud of Cathy, as was every- one else. It was quite a gala occasion when the eighth grade girls beat the seventh grade girls in a basketball game. It doesn ' t seem very impor- tant now, but it did at the time. We really owe the game to Mary Jane Stewart, who got practically all of the baskets. Lois Merritt also played quite well. Grade Eight Sport Items Arthur Dunphy, SB It seems that it takes the girls to win a game. Well, it happened this way for the eighth grade. The seventh grade girls came to play our girls. The game was running about even when Miss Moulton put in Mary Jane Stewart. Then the roof fell in. Miss Stewart quickly hit the nets for twelve to fourteen points. This put the game on ice for Grade Eight. The boys ' game was a bit different. A cer- tain guard shot too much, but after he woke up to it, he only shot once and made it. Joe Cerilli was high scorer for Grade Eight with eight points. The final score was 17 to 14 in favor of Grade Seven boys. The following Thursday the four junior high divisions met for a play-off. The first game was Seven A versus Seven B with Seven A winning six to five. The next game was Eight A versus Eight B, Eight B winning eight to six. Bruce Wyman scored four points. High honors were held by three Eight A members: Joe Cerilli, 2; Elliot Barrett, 2; and Arthur Dunphy, 2. Then came the play-off, Eight B versus Seven A. The final score was eight to five in favor of Eight B. Bruce Wyman was high scorer with five of the five Eight B tallies. Seventh Grade News Joyce Bamber, 7 A Peter Nurd, 7B On September 4, a group of about eighty pupils came from the sixth grades to the junior high school. To many of us, it seemed strange, and some were frightened. After a while it became an old story. Three new jJupils have entered the seventh grade, Shirley Petterson, Ronald Sustana, and Joyce Davis. Movies shown to us by Miss VoUmer have been enjoyed very much. While Mrs. Williams was out sick, her sub- stitute, Mrs. Finnic, let us have a sort of town meeting. This was loads of fun. We have made booklets in both geography and English. The seventh grade girls played basketball with the eighth grade girls. But it was our hard luck that we lost and the eighth grade girls won. The members of the Pinafore cast in the seventh grade were Evelyn Jenny, Priscilla Merritt, Roxana Turner, Francis Whorf, and Glenn Higgins. Priscilla Merritt won honorable mention in the Edison essay contest. We are very proud to have Richard Clapp in the seventh grade because in his November- December report he got all A ' s. We have an average of twenty pupils on the honor roll for the marking periods. (Continued from Page 13) Remember the Tortoise and the Hare? Coombs and Briggs are such a pair. One is slow, the other ' s fast, But they ' re good friends despite contrast. Warren, Brown, Clapp, and Spinola Avery, Keyes, Dolan, Ahola,— Of our class of fifty-two These are a few who prove to you That the class of nineteen forty-eight Is progressive, impressive, and surely great.

Cenlli, ' 48 THE school building had a somewhat new lace when it opened its doors to both old and new classes in September. An outer office, book closet, and coat room had been constructed Irom Room lO ' -J to provide greater convenience. Many desks had been added in the various rooms to accommodate the ever- increasing number of students. Floors and walls in several of the classrooms had been refinished and repainted. Several new students were in evidence as well as five new teachers. Mr. Stewart resumed his position as coach and teacher of science after three years in the Navy. Miss Ruth E. Moulton of Boston took the position of teacher of physical education and history, formerly held by Miss Virginia Vines, who resigned to be married. Mr. Laurence Benson of Brockton succeeded Mr. Dodge in the Maiuial Training Department. Mr. Wilton Hawes of Newton caine to the school as teacher of mathematics; and Miss Carol Voll- mcr was transferred from the Hatherly School to the position previously held by Miss Maxim in the Junior High. Last September the glee club was re-organ- ized under the supervision of Miss Reynolds. There was a large turnout of both boys and girls this year. The glee club is divided into three groups, each of which meets two periods every Ihursday. In December, the members of the glee cltib had a chance to show off their dramatic, as well as their music ability, in the all-schol production of the operetta H. M. S. Pinafore. The combined groups are now working on a musical program for the gradu- ation exercises in June. This year, through the efforts of Mr. Leach and his j layers, the band has increased in both number and ability. Many inembers have been recruited from the Junior High, and they have proved their worth both musically and in their willingness to cooperate. New uniforms have been ordered, and the band 18 CHimes should make a snapj y picture out on parade, preceded by six drum majorettes under the leadership of Ligi Goddard. These peppy lassies are Martha Peirce, Verdella Goddard, Shirley Chadbourne, Mary Dwight, and Mari- lyn Pratt. Through the efforts of the entire group, the band is fast becoming one of the school ' s most important organizations. This year a total of ten cheerleaders could be seen cheering our teams on to victory. Nancy Wyman was again chosen leader of the group, which consisted of Ginny Mongeau, Debby Andrews, Annette Milliken, Phyllis Mitchell, Gladys Hill, Martha Peirce, Ann- claine Limper, Louise Reddy, and Laura Ccr- illi. During the basketball season, Verdella Goddard joined the group. Two new organizations have been started in the school this year. Under the sponsorship of the Kiwanis Club, the Key Club was started. This club is made up of boys from the sopho- more, junior, and senior classes who tjualify in scholarship. The boys have already been active in many ways. The second organization is the Student Council. This group has con- ducted bi-weekly meetings since its inception in January. This year the dances have been enjoyable though not too successful financially. The senior dance was held November 1, under the name of the Pigskin Party. December 6 the juniors held a very high-class shindig called the Drag-On-Drag. Al Deiss and his orchestra provided the music for both of these dances. On March 21, the combined freshman and sophomore classes held a dance called the Golden Slipper Ball with music by Mil Barnes and his orchestra. The Junior Prom was held on May 6 at Drcamwold Hall. This dance proved to be a great success both socially and financially. The Juniors gave the Seniors their reception on June 8, an occasion which was also enjoyed by all who attended. In November, a magazine drive sponsored by the Curtis Publishing Company was held. The entire school displayed a great deal of enthusiasm throughout the drive, but partic- ular recognition goes to the Junior High for their efforts. Arthur Dunphy was awarded a radio for being high salesman in the drive. A percentage of the proceeds, which totaled over $1,000, will benefit the various depart- ments of the school. The annual Red Cross Drive was held in January. The students aided this worthy cause by contributing generously, as usual. Before Christmas, each homeroom filled several gift boxes to be sent to needy children in foreign countries. Several of the assemblies this year have been student participation programs, presenting a demonstration of the work of various depart- ments. Much outside talent has been intro- duced also, including such speakers as Mr. Lloyd Bemis, who gave an illustrated lecture on Virginia; Mrs. CorAvith of the National Broadcasting Company, whose topic was Be- hind the Scenes in Raclio ; George E. Caraker, a prominent news analyst and journalist, who gave an informative talk on international af- fairs; Piero Pierotic, a baritone of the Vienna opera, who sang many popular numbers and also presented an excerpt from Rigoletto ; Jesse Robertson, who presented a very inius- ual and entertaining lesson in ancient musical history entitled Song Hits of 1947 B. C ; Grace W. Keene, actress and interpreter, whose interpretation of the play, I Remem- ber Mama was extremely enjoyable; and Dr. Alson Keener, whose illustrated lecture, Our Afexican Neighbors, proved to be most edu- cational. At Christmastime, some of the stu- dents presented a pantomime portraying Dickens ' Christmas Carol. The French De- partment put on three short plays in French. Several students had an opportunity to par- ticipate in these plays and thereby display the ease with which they have learned to s eak and understand the language. The members of the Science Department in their assembly performed many experiments in both chemistry and physics, explaining the principles of science. Tliis was particularly interesting. The Senior history class has been respon- sible for two assemblies this year. In Novem- ber, the class staged an election based as nearly as possible on the state election which was being held at the time. A political rally was held in which sjaeakers for both parties spoke for the men representing their party. In January, the same department presented what proved to be the fruits of diligent study. Under the direction of Miss Gile, about twenty pupils undertook to debate on the national debate topic, Resolved: That the Federal Government should provide a system of com- plete medical care at public expense. After a series of preliminary debates, the winners staged a final contest in which the negative side was victorious. In April the Marshfield and Scituate bands presented an excellent concert, which Avas enthusiastically received. All of these activities, and many others, have combined to make the current school year a pleasant one. 19 Honor Roll The following names have appeared on the honoi roll at least once in the first three marking periods.

Student Jean Ho EARLY in the year, the students of Scitu- ate High unanimously agreed that a student coimcil would be a benefit to both the faculty and members of the student body. A temporary committee consisting of five seniors, four juniors, three sophomores, two freshmen, and one from each of the Junior High classes met with Mr. Calkin and formed a constitution according to our needs and desires. After careful consideration, the con- stitution was presented to the entire student body and accepted. A permanent student council of the same number was chosen shortly after the consti- tution was accepted. The representatives of the school are as follows: seniors, Pat Cahir, Frank Cole, Robert Devine, Annette Milliken, and Jeanie Holcomb; juniors, Gabriel Jacco- bucci, Jane Keyes, Jean Prouty, and Jack Varney; sophomores, Ann Arapoff, Jack Mills and John Stewart; freshmen, George Mitchell, Council ■onib, ' 77 Elizabeth Murrill; eighth grade, William Eaton and seventh grade, Thomas Snow. At the first formal meeting of the Scituate High School Student Council officers were chosen as follows: president, Robert Devine; vice-president, Frank Cole; secretary, Jean Prouty; and treasurer, Gabriel Jacobucci. Although the council has only recently been formed, many plans have already been made. Proceeds gained from selling programs at the Scituate-Norwell basketball game will be used for future council needs. The student council, with the co-operation of the student body, will try to carry out the ideals of the preamble of the constitution which is as follows: We, the students of Scituate High School, in order to foster school spirit, create better co-operation and closer relationshi]) between students and faculty, en- courage students to co-operate in the maintenance of the school property, and coordinate school activities, do hereby establish this constitution. diniiiiiies 21 KEY Cl.UB FiKsi Row: Galjiicl Jacoluicci, James Goddard, Ronald Fallon, Laurence Dwyer, Robert Devine, David Mahoney, Leland 1 owle.

Robert Devine, ' 47 IN September a new club was formed in the high school called the Key Club. It was sponsored by the Kiwanis Club of Scituate and was composed of boys from the senior, jimior, and sophomore classes who were qual- ified by their scholastic standing. Some of the objectives of the Key Club are to develop initiative and leadership, to pro- vide experience in living and working to- gether, to serve the school and community, and to prepare for useful citizenship. The Kiwanis Club entertained the Key Club at two banquets this year. At one of them, the boys received a bell and gavel, a charter, and lapel buttons. The Key Club sponsored many projects throughout the year, including a scrap-paper drive, and the sale of tonic at the basketball games to raise money for a camera for the school. The Key Club has proved beneficial to both the members and the school. The mem- bers have had an incentive for good scholastic standing, and the school has received a very fine motion picture camera through the efforts of this organization.

The juke box was begging South America to take it away, w hile orders lor cokes, hotdogs, and I ' rappes were being shouted along the coini- ters. Everyone was in a gala mood, and I soon foiuid out why. The curtain had just fallen on the second and final performance of the Gilbert and Sullivan Operetta, H. M. S. Pinafore, performed by the students of the Scituate High. As I wandered through the crowd, looking for a friend, all f heard were remarks about this production. —and didn ' t you think that Dick Deadeye was wonderful? — His name? — Chipman, I think. — thought the girl who took Josephine ' s part had a lovely voice. I do liope that— — and the students did the scenery and staging. Miss Rowell and Mr. Benson did a great job directing it— it was so realistic. Gee, didn ' t Laura do a swell job? She was the best toniglit I ' ve ever— Hey, there ' s that Mitchell kid. Boy, I want to shake his hand! Taking the captain ' s part was no easy job. I thought tlie ladies looked so lovely in their gowns, especially Gladys Hill, and the sailors were very good, weren ' t they? Well, after hearing ail these remarks, I began to think that this play was really some- thing. Anyway, I sat down and ordered a cheezebinger and a lime-coke and then began talking to a boy next to me. After a few min- utes who did I discover liim to be, but Davie Dwyer, the leading man in the play! By then, I had bcgim to realize that I was about the only person in Dunphy ' s who hadn ' t seen the show. And I decided I had missed an excep- tionally good performance. It was pretty hot in there with the crowd and all, and the juke box was becoming richer every minute; so I decided to try to get through the crowd and out. On my way to the door, I heard still more laudatory remarks concerning this play. Those teachers did a great job directing the singing and dancing as well as the drama- tics. I ' d hate to have tackled it. Oh! I split my sides laughing at that tall officer! What did you say his name is? Heywood? Well, he certainly stole the show! And did you— — can ' t really decide which one I liked best, but that George Whorf was darn good. He ' s a real trouper! — finale was very colorful! — congratulate Miss Gile and Miss Rey- nolds for their excellent directing. They really— You know, there was a lot of hard work put into that production by almost everyone in the high school. It seems nice to see the entire school all pulling together for a good cause like that. The proceeds go toward the assembly fiuid, you know. 24 C: S 1 Ol H. M. S. I ' lXAFORE First Row: L. Redely, W.

The stars of the play were Annelaine Limper, whom many of you will remember from past plays, taking the part of Cornelia Otis Skinner, and Deb- orah Andrews, a new but definitely delight- ful and pleasing young actress, taking the part of Emily Kimbrough.

To some of us, the nearby future means the fin thering of oiu education. To others it means that an immediate step is to be taken up the stairs of independence in the w ay of work or marriage. But to all of us, it means more or less a new life. When we stoj) for a minute and look back at oiu- childhood, it is hard to believe that tliere was a time in our life Avhen a broken toy Avas our greatest care. Those were the days when all we had to do was follow. Oiu- opinions were those of our parents, teachers, and friends. E erything was seen through rose- colored glasses. Life to some of us vas pretty wonderfiU then. It was pretty nice to be as- sin ed of ha ing our tears wiped a vay. It was pretty comforting to have someone kiss a vay the hurt. It was wonderfid to be a part of an era of childhood where Avork and play were one. Yet I ' m sure we all dreamed of and yearned for the day when we would be groAvn up— when we Avould be able to go ahead and do w ' onderfid things in a wonderful Avorld. How - ever, the day of fidfilling our hopes and ambi- tions was a far distant goal yet to be reached. Gradiialh ' we began to suffer from seem- ingly-ne er-ending grooving pains. Too big to play with toys— too young to indulge in adult pleasures— we were a lost and misunderstood generation as we reached the early years of adolescence. Along with these growing pains, though, we were learning to untie the apron strings. SloAvIy but surely we began to be able to distinguish one foot from the other. We were learning the principles by which we must live Avhen we were to take our places as citi- zens in the Avorld of tomorrow. NoAv •e are graduating. We have at last reached the goal dreamed of in days gone by. We are now ready to work toAvards seeing om- hopes and ambitions fulfilled. These ambi- tions ha c probably varied with the passing of time— yet we have reached the goal of being independent. All our dreams will be trans- formed into reality only by honest effort, hard work, and clean play. With the hope that these ideals have been instilled into us deeply, we must go ahead and make a life for our- selves. 26 Furthermore, the fulfillment of our hopes does not concern us alone. As the citizens and leaders of tomorrow, we must contribute these ambitions to the making of a better world. The problems vhich we read about in the papers today will be the problems which we must help solve tomorro v. The world will be in our hands and must be kept safe for future generations. In this atomic age, the principles we follow will be the deciding fac- tors of whether or not the world is to continue to exist. Life is what we make it— the world is what we make it. Let us all work side by side to make the era of tomorrow one which will be recorded in future history books as a great era of a great generation. Forward Into the Future Alette Dolan, ' 48 THE senior classes leaving high schools all over America are constantly reminded that the destiny of the country is in the hands of its young citizens. Every graduating class feels like a youthful Atlas, carrying the problems of the world upon its shoulders. For all com- mencement addresses and graduation edito- rials ring with the same inevitable expressions, opportimity . . . future responsibilities . . . fate of the world. Do we realize the challenge that is implied? This is indeed a crucial time in the world ' s history. Within the next century civilization may rise to unbelievable peaks, or it can as easily be destroyed. This problem will be ours. We have learned in science class that water at zero degrees centigrade weighs less than water at four degrees centigrade. This is not just another dull fact to be remembered; this is a miracle! It means that ice will float, that no body of water will freeze through to the bottom. Think of the results if our rivers and lakes should freeze solid. Aquatic life would quickly die, and within a few years all life would disappear from the earth. We know that plants breathe carbon dioxide and give off oxygen, and that animals do the opposite —another miracle. If this were not true, our atmosphere would quickly be exhausted. These are only two infinitesimal factors in the miraculously-constructed imiverse in which we live. Some Divine Power has bal- anced each minute phenomenon with its op- posite, to make om- world so perfect that it has thus far survived all perils of destruction. Vc cannot shatter the equilibriinn of these universal scales with our misdeeds. Each ter- rible new weapon that the hmnan brain con- ceives is making oiu balance more precarious. Shall man ' s history upon this earth, indeed the earth itself, crimible into nothing during our lifetime? Or shall the vision of a perfect and lasting peace materialize? The time is fast approaching for our generation to decide. Ve nuist go forward into the fiuure with clear minds and firm hearts. The House of Robert D FOR all of ten years I have been living in a house inhabited by seven ghosts. The house is situated on a large country estate along the Atlantic Coast south of Boston. It is a copy of an Italian villa and was erected by the well-known author, Robert Haven Schauffler. It is surrounded by ex- tensive lawns and fascinating landscape. There exists on the premises, supposedly, a tree representing each and every nation in the temperate zone. There is a large pool adjacent to the house with many statues of pure white marble surrounding it and ac- centing its beauty. From the pool a Avater cascade floAvs continuously through a mag- nificent rock garden. Seven Ghosts vine, ' 47 The interior of the house is as beautiful and extraordinary as the exterior. The rooms are large and spacious with thick, rich oriental rugs covering the entire floor sur- face like fiu ' on the back of a large animal. The avails vere constructed only after a great deal of consideration was given to acoustics; consecpiently, when the large mahogany piano is played, the music resonates pleasantly throughout the entire house and even to the nearer gardens surrounding it. The furni- tiue is unexcelled in beauty and design. Even the pictines on the walls are unusual and enticing. But it is inhabited by ghosts. Although I have never seen the ghosts, I am certain of their existence. I can not say 27 why tlicy chose to inhal)it this house in par- ticular, except perhaps that it niiglit appeal to ghosts in the same nianuer that it appealed to us. The most mystifying ghost is No-See-Um. Evenings, as I sit alone in the library reading, I leel the presence ol an air-borne specter who, when I look directly at him, merges into the substaiue ol a lampshade, an ash tray, or a piece ol lurniture. This is No- See-Um. Another terrilying ghost is Iron Shoes. His appellation is derived Irom the lact that each and every night, no matter where I am in the house, he approaches with heavy foot- steps, and yet never seems to reach me. Count- less times I have looked up from my books expecting to see him and yet I can only hear his steps. The most intolerable ghost is The Ad- viser. He is the unseen fellow who tells me when to use my right hand instead of my left, when to go up the stairs two at a time instead of one, what color paper to write on, and makes other unnecessary and uncalled-for criticisms and remarks. It is getting now so that I make inore invohuitary moves than I do vohmtary ones. The Dreamer is really a pleasant, friendly fellow, but he often gets me into trouble. It is his pet hobby to talk to me when I am trying to study. He talks about foreign lands, adventure, romance and fantasy. He is well- educated and speaks so persuasively that when I am supposed to be studying French, I am in reality, listening to him talk about Alaska! Fickle is a constant companion of mine who sits on the arm of my chair and looks over my shoulder when I am reading. He makes me think I am the hero of the story and is constantly influencing my state of mind. At one time he thought I would make a fine sailor; other times he thought I shovdd be a policeman, trapper, fireman, cowboy, muscian or writer. When I am discussing my plans for the future with friends, Fickle enters into the conversation and dictates to me. This gives my friends the impression that I am talking nonsense or, in other words, talking through my hat. The last two ghosts are not personal de- mons but, like No-See-Um, and Iron Shoes, they belong to the entire household. One is The Carpenter who travels about the house between the walls and is constantly repairing woodwork which does not need re- pairing. He is responsible for the creaks, knocks, drilling, and general thumping and thudding which goes on about the liouse. The Electrician is, I am son y to say, only an amateur. I have reason to believe that he is practicing the on-the-job-training plan. If I were to meet him, I am sure that he woidd tiun out to be a very nervous and fidgety fellow. He dims the lights to a pale orange when I am writing and sometimes shuts them off completely. His most aggra- vating habit is to blow a fuse when someone is trying to make a pot of coffee on the hot plate at half past five in the morning. This alone keeps my father at odds with the rest of the family icjr weeks on end. Ghosts, as a whole, are not bad at all. They are constantly trying to help or enter- tain us although usually they become a nui- sance so they are difficult to live with. I have thought of the possibility of abandoning them by moving to another house, but I am sure that they would follow me in the guise of friends or neighbors. You can see for yourself that there are always people around who ad- vise, criticize, persuade, and annoy you. There are a great many like Iron Shoes who make a lot of noise and yet never seem to get any- where. Many more are like The Carpenter and The Electrician, for they make a great stir about nothing at all, and think they know more than they really do. Almost anybody is qualified to be a ghost. A Symphony of Moods Josephine Miles, ' 48 Moods are like a great and eternal sym- phony, going on and on, up to the heights in dancing fairy flutes, and down to the depths of the soul in rumbling drums. Each person is a symphony— each with his own tones and overtures, always changing swiftly from one mood to another and mov- ing toward the final climax. Each one has his own little theme imderlying all his works and woven into his music, different from any- body else ' s and waiting to be discovered and appreciated. Some moods are sunshine, or sparkling clear brooks, running and dancing down through the shadows of hemlocks; while others are grasses being swayed in unison by the same breeze that supports the lacy wings of gulls. Some moods are but a breath of air, caressing yoiu temples and gently blowing your hair, bringing with it the fragrance of cedar and salt marshes. They come like clear. 28 fresh pain, these moods; and their music is like a beautiful symphony, so perfect, so lovely, that it seeps to the depths of your soul, and you feel your spirit freed from the chains of life and body, and flying on the wings of rapture. Some moods are disconnected, distracted fragments of the symphony. Discontentment and uneasiness rumble through us like drums, and realization clashes through the darkness like cymbals. Fears fill these moods, striking the soul as discordant sounds in a symphony, full of dissonance and strife, but somehow, vitally necessary to the composition. And then these moods swing into rich, full music, with every theme of pain, love, happi- ness and discord blended together in violins, harps, drums and horns to form a flood of overpowering life in all its complexities: an endless symphony. Clouds Louise Reddy, ' 48 High up in the heavens Nested in a sky of blue, The airy clouds come flying. Bringing messages to you. The world was full of anguish. Of horror, and of sin. And the clouds of war hung o ' er us. Dreary, dark and dim. The clouds of war were parted On one September day, And peace, for a world united. Showed forth its glorious ray. And now, again, around us With sorrow and crying filled The world is growing darker,— The clouds of war weren ' t stilled. But soon will come the victory Of peace, forever more. And with this glorious dawning A world of hope, in store. High up in the heavens Nested in a sky of blue, The airy clouds come flying. Bringing messages to you. Let ' s Go Jean Holcomb, ' 47 Come on, kids, let ' s go, is a familiar ex- pression to every high school girl and boy. There is hardly a time in the corridors of high schools, on athletic fields, or on city streets when some youth is not urging his friend to join him. Let ' s go? Go where? Onward to score a victory on the football field or basketball court, to meet at the drugstore where the gang gets together, to chase another group of teen-agers in a speeding car, or — to a promising future? Just where are your footsteps directed when you follow your friend ' s urgent beckoning? Do they lead toward a successful, happy and healthy life? A clear, definite destination is difficult for many of today ' s youth to con- ceive. And yet, the stepping stones leading toward your destination are self-evident; in- tegrity, reliability, affability, common sense, ambition are all important steps in the path to your goal. These qualities can be acquired when one is young, but must be developed to a higher degree during the high school years. It is the personal responsibility of today ' s younger generation to accept the chal- lenge of developing these virtues. Through the church, the home, the school, and other organizations, young people are realizing tlrat the development of these characteristics is vital to a successful future. More important, they are realizing the necessity of choosing a suitable destination or goal to work toward and achieve. The world of today presents a series of opportunities; the result of grasping these opportunities is achievement. Most young people consider juvenile delin- quency as a subject very remote. Neverthe- less, do they realize what that one quick ride through the city, speeding, may lead to? Or what idle visits with the gang on the city sidewalks may possibly result in? Or the in- fluence of a friend who might suggest, Take just one drink, go ahead! Such everyday activities will not lead to a successful goal. The stepping stones to a worth-while destina- tion can be destroyed by such apparently minor occurrences, which are actually the basis of the future. If you, as the youth of today, could com- prehend what Come on, kids, let ' s go! might mean in years to come, you surely would give heed to where your goal may lie! So, Come on, kids, let ' s go along the step- ping stones of youth to a prosperous and suc- cessful destination! 29 When Father Goes Away Ligi Goddard, ' 47 WHEN Father goes away, all the mechani- cal devices in the house seize the oppor- tunity to rebel. There is a mysterious air about Father which seems to discourage all disobedience and household disasters; but soon alter Father has made his exit, any catas- trophe is likely to occur. The roof might leak or cave in, the pump in the cellar might sputter and give up, the telephone might retuse to ring, or the water pipes might bmst. This last calamity stamps itsclt most vividly in my mind because, during Father ' s recent absence, the plumbing system collapsed. About five minutes after Father had dashed through the door, I was busy in the kitchen getting supper ready. With dismay I heard a queer gushing noise which seemed to be coming from the garage. I rushed out to investigate. The garage was flooded with water, and my little ship, which is stored there, was almost ready to set sail. From one of the water pipes issued a spouting stream. Luckily, at that time the telephone was in working order. But not one of the five plumbers whom I called would agree to come until much later in the day or possibly the next day. Three hours slowly ticked away, and no assistance had come. After a last frantic appeal to one of the plumbers, I finally secured a promise of help. Within a half hour the plumber arrived at the house with his kit of tools. The plumber tried, seemingly in vain, to locate the place, underground, where the vater supply to the garage could be shut off. Instead of using a shovel to locate the crucial spot, he used a labor-saving device called a detector, which consisted mainly of a dial and a small chain from which it hung. When the dial was liung over anything made of metal, the needle on the dial was supposed to move. After an hour ' s unsuccessful attempts, I was beginning to think the detector was only a bluff. I uttered a sigh of relief wlien finally the needle gave a slight wriggle. My troubles were over, I thought. While thanking the plumber profusely, I noticed that he seemed disconcerted. I was stupified wlien he told me that plimibers never dig holes. I would have to hire an excavator to dig down to the water pipe, and tlien I could telephone the plimiber again. He said lie would be glad to come over and repair the pipe as soon as it was uncovered. Too discouraged lor words, I turned and fled into the house. The water was still rushing from the garage pipe; and the concave floor, filled with water, formed an ade(juate ocean for my lit tle ship to moor itself in. Mother and I kept saying over and over again, If only Pather were here! At nine p.m. I left the house to attend a party, my spirits much bedraggled. When I departed, there were still no signs of the diggers. At midnight, when I staggered up- stairs to bed, I decided that a hot bath would soothe my shattered nerves. But when I tin ned on the faucet, there was only a gurgle. I stormed into my room and found a note from Mother saying that the diggers hadn ' t come, and that the Water Department had tinned olf the main water supply. I was so exhausted that I had not even noticed that the gushing noise was no longer coming from the garage. The next morning the situation didn ' t look cjuite so discouraging. The excavator finally arrived, and after the digging was accom- plished, t he plumber, with a little persuasion, did his share. At noon the pipe was fixed, and we had water again. Father came home late in the afternoon and listened with amusement to our tales of distress and misfortune. He pointed out that Mother and I should learn more about the mechanics of running the house. Mother answered him by using a little female psy- chology— fiattery. She told him that he had an indefinable charm which seems to ward off any calamity. The Pilgrims Marv Jane Steioart, 8B They sailed, they sailed across the sea And found a land for you and me; These Pilgrims came here just to pray And worship God in their own way. They landed in Plymouth by the shore. Where they settled and roamed no more; 1 hey suffered much and many died, But still they prayed and did abide. 30 Mistaken Identity Warren O ' Shea, 8B IT was a beautiful rosy dawn that was beginning to break over Kendall Field, Florida. Captain Earl Stanton stood admir- ing his newly-arrived B-17, a heavy bomber which sat clumsily facing into the gentle breeze on Runway Three. Twenty minutes later. Captain Stanton and his crew stood in Operations Office just before take-off for a briefing. It was Lazy Mary ' s turn to patrol for subs, and although her crew was hopeful, they doubted whether they would even hear of a sub. A few minutes later, they filed out and climbed aboard their waiting ship, the pro- pellers of which were turning over evenly in the now-bright sunlight. Captain Stanton was a tall man, well-built, with a shock of black hair. He was young, about twenty-four, and wise. He boasted a Texas drawl, and had a wide smile. He gunned the engines with brakes set, and the plane shuddered. Then he let down the flaps and released the brakes, and the plane shot down the runway. Split seconds later, the landing gear was up, the flaps were up, the crew was relaxing, and Lazy Maiy was climb- ing rapidly. They reached a 30,000-foot alti- tude and leveled off just as the coastline slipped beneath the plane ' s trim fuselage. She responded beautifully to every known trick in the book. They were now well out over the ocean and they banked southward. Just then, the peering, hopeful navigator shouted, Suspi- cious fish below at 5:30 o ' clock! The plane tipped as Earl calmly said, Man your battle stations. He took the plane down to 200 feet and leveled off. The bombardier shouted ex- citedly! Sub below, German U-boat— Lubein type! The engines roared and the plane climbed for altitude for a bombing run. She climbed steadily to one thousand feet, banked, and leveled off with the sun at their backs. Once again the sub came into view and its shadow was changing from black to gray! It was diving fast, but it was a large sub and the target was still clear. Suddenly, Bob Benton, tail gunner, yelled something over the intercom, and screamed in agony! The unmistakable whine of a Me. 109 was heard as it streaked past. It was equipped with floats. The forward and top giuis spit death, and the tracers, smoking, bit deep into the 109 ' s stabalizer! It climbed rapidly and banked. Then it disappeared! But this run, the bombardier was determined to get that sub! He called out instructions. Bear to the left — Hold ' er. Skipper — Steady — Steady — Bombs Away ! Earl felt the plane lighten just as the Messerschmidt came in again. Gims chattered and metal chipped from ninnbers one and two engines! Flame streamed from them, and the automatic ex- tinguishers went to no avail on No. One en- gines! However, the fire in No. Two went out! The plane was lumbering on when the air about the banking plane shuddered! Look- ing below, they saw the sub disintegrate, and then slip below the water ' s oily, scarlet sur- face! I hen they knew why the plane was there— the sub had launched it previously! A voice broke the silence. Bob looks badly wounded, sir, but he ' ll live. Shall I man his post? It was Jim Kent- worth, the navigator. O. K., was the answer, but it was cut short by the chattering of guns. Earl heard some unpleasant nickel-jacketed messengers of death whistle, splinter the canopy Plexi- glass, and plough into the instrument board! As the fighter plane shot past, it too disinte- grated and plummeted earthward. Lazy Mary turned ruefully homeward, shot to bits but victorious! As she approached the field, she tried to transmit her difficulties to base, but the radio was in pieces! Then short bursts of flack exploded near the plane and one scored a hit! The tail slumped backwards like a crazy stunt rider, and like a woimded bird, the plane slipped earthward slowly, smoking from a severed oil line which spilled oil on the red hot parts, making smoke. The plane made a sickening belly land- ing, dug one wing into the runway and stopped short! The crew climbed out carry- ing Bob; and when the ambulance had taken him a vay, Colonel Cross shook hands with Earl and said, We thought you were a shot up ' Krout. ' That sure vas a mistaken iden- tity. It sure was, Earl agreed with a wry smile as he glanced at his plane ' s smouldering remains in the afternoon sun. It sure was, he said to himself. Growing Pains 32 Source of Wonderment Terry Butler, ' 47 IN northern England, midway between Scar- borough and Budlington on the old post road, there is a lonely stretch of rolling land that is a subject of much amazement and curiosity to me. Probably the most singular feature that I remember of this expanse of land is the old Turnbull Tavern, a pictur- esque inn adjacent to the road in a section of level valley. To the north and south are gently rolling hills which are typical of that countryside. A little distance to the east is Flamborough Head, a section of weather- beaten shoreline. The fresh ocean winds scatter the salty spray inland so that one can always scent the salt tinge of the usually- torpid hanging air of the inland. The first time I viewed this rural scene was two years ago, coming down from South Shields on the Tyne with two of my good friends. The carriage had just topped the hill when one of my friends, who was facing forward, called attention to the beauty of the coinitryside. As I turned to look, some sub- conscious foreboding of ill impressed me. I breathed easier when he had left Tinnbull Tavern in the dust. No sooner had I dis- missed the depression from my mind than the carriage slowed to a stop. The coachman poked his grimy head in the door and begged oin- pardon but we would be obliged to spend the night at the last inn we had passed be- cause a bridge had been weakened by the high rushing waterS and he didn ' t dare attempt to cross. All the way back we mournfully discussed bur ill fortune at having to spend a boring evening at some relic of a roadhouse. As we drew up to the Turnbull Tavern, I began to notice the building itself. Hanging out front was a large sign with a faded picture of a bull and a red cape. The entrance was a double door with large iron bolts studding the oaken frame. The after part had a crude stone foundation; the main room appeared to have been constructed of some vessel ' s tim- bers. In general the house seemed solidly built. A plump, matronly lady received us with more or less forced sweetness and conducted us to our barren rooms. Accepting our fate as best we could, my friends and I descended to the main room. We sat there, comment- ing sarcastically about our surroundings until I spied a decrepit figure near the fire. In a good-humored frame of mind we moved closer to the burning embers and the old codger who sat smoking there. Shortly we diverted our conversation to the probable history of the quaint structure. Directing our queries meaningfully in the old man ' s direction, we settled ourselves around the fire. The old man shifted his pipe, tamped the tobacco, and cleared his throat while we waited in respectful silence. According to this twice-a-yoimgster, the original stone framework had been placed there by invading Danes before the time of Caesar. Later, the counter-invading Picts from Scotland had burnt the wood framework of the Danes. Centuries later in English history, some merchantman, blown off its course, had run aground on Flamborough Head. Thrifty natives had carted the ship away piecemeal, and one enterprising group had constructed this tavern on the old stone foundation. All the time our storyteller was coloring history, the tavern was filling up with groups of silent, somber men. I couldn ' t possibly imagine where they had come from since I hadn ' t recalled seeing a house for miles around. The tavern was thick with a distaste- ful smoky haze; so I took silent leave of the elderly gent and his first-hand evidence and threaded my way through the throng. As I passetl along, no one so much as raised his head. Though I expected the outside air to put me in better spirits, I found that the outside air was heavy and thick. I could actually feel the weight of the air on my skull to such an extent that it sent me into a mental torpor. My senses dulled, I wandered back into the tavern almost in a trance. Locat- ing my friends, who by now seemed also quite subdued, I conducted them to the rear of the room to partake of our meal. As I raised a succulent portion of mutton to my lips, I was startled by a short piercing cry coming from a back room. I arose with such a start that my fork spattered gravy over my frock coat. I was further surprised by the complete indifference of the rest of the people and especially my friends. They were alarmed only at my jumping from the table. I was almost convinced that I was hearing things, when again there was a long agonizing scream. I coiddn ' t be imagining it. Yet, no- body else in the tavern even batted an eye- lash. Heaving a bewildered sigh, I sank into CltiDiiiiiies 33 niy scat. I was coiiviiucd that somebody was cra y altliougli I wasn ' t sure who. I retired to niy room early, thinking that a good niglu ' s sleep would be good lor me. As I lay in bed thinking, thinking, I couldn ' t get to sleep. My mind was in a turmoil. I recalled carefully the events leading up to that awlid scream, arguing the pros and cons of every possibility. Having eased my mind somewhat, I lay back on my pillow and gazed at the moonbeams streaming through the window. Peaceful at last, I closed my eyes, then dreamily yawned, and relaxed. Just as I was about to close my eyes, I noticed a slight movement of that floorboard which was lighted by the moonbeams. All my nervous tension came back. I blinked, sat up, rubbed my eyes and jiunped against the wall. I could feel the hair rising on the back of my neck as I saw a small floorboard slowly raised and put to one side. A slim white hand reached up from tlie cavity. I gasped hoarsely; then I was mercifully re- duced to an unconscious state. I awoke with a start the following morn- ing. Slowly all my senses came back and I hurriedly dressed, roused my friends, and rushed them down into the coach. Once in the coach I fell into a deep sleep and never awakened until we were many miles distant. The rest of the trip was uneventful, and I took leave of my companions at my London house. I was very curious to know more about this Turnbull Tavern so I visited a promi- nent London traveling agency. In my con- sultations with several coachmen who were very familiar with that country, they swore that there was no Turnbull Tavern in all that territory, and for that matter, no tavern at all in that region. I was not able to locate any information about the tavern as it ap- peared no one knew it had ever existed. To prove I wasn ' t crazy, I wrote to my two friends so that they would bear out my story. I was deeply shocked to learn that on arrival at his country manor one of my friends had been fatally kicked by his prize horse. Stunned, I scarcely showed any emotion when I learned that my other friend had embarked for France the same day; and neither he nor the ship was seen again. This all has caused me no end of wonderment. On the Way lo Sc hool Crorirc Milchell, ' 50 Scr.Ni;: Walking to school one hot day.

All his life he had been composing music for the world to enjoy, and enjoy it they did. He went to his piano as the clock struck three— five more hours and he ' d be on the stage, playing before one of his largest audi- ences. But now he ran his fingers over the keys, playing for only himself. The runs and medley of notes that came out of the old piano were among the most beautiful the world had ever heard. Hadn ' t he spent eighty-three years of his life learning to play this way? If any- one had been listening, he coidd have heard brooks racing along, trying, trying to reach their destination ahead of themselves, or the call of soldiers, the sweetness of the voices of children playing merrily in the wind— oh, almost everything came out of that piano that day. All of a sudden he stopped; he had struck a chor d on the piano that he had never soimded before, never in all his life. It was the most beautifid one he had ever heard. He tried to strike it again; he searched all over the key-board for it, but he couldn ' t find that chord. He must find it— he must! The clock struck seven, which reminded him that he must pull himself together as he was to play the concert in an hour. The crowd seemed to sense that he was in the mood to play and that they were hearing beauty not often heard. But the old maestro wasn ' t thinking about what he was playing; he was listening for that beautiful chord again. He kept hearing it subconsciously, but he couldn ' t C|uite find it. In his mind was the old song about a man who had foimd some such chord on the organ. He remem- bered the words: Seated one day at the organ, I was weary and ill at ease; And my fingers wandered idly Over the noisy keys . . . And I struck one chord of music like the soimd of a great amen. (Yes, it did sound like an amen. ) It may be that only in heaven I shall hear that chord again. Suddenly, in the middle of the concerto that he was playing, he heard it again and again. It was perfection; it was worth all his long years of study. The next day the paper reported the tragic death of the old maestro, in the middle of his most brilliant concerto. The Victor Alette Dolan, ' 48 Man may lose the whole earth and keep his OAvn soul. It is night. There is no moon. The stars are very pale and far away. No night creature sings. No breeze is blowing. The earth is waiting. There! In the east the clouds point a bloody finger at the dawn. The harsh, grey light reveals the secret that the night has hidden, Black ground, pock-marked by craters, the crumbling remnant of a wall. And far away, one weather-beaten cross mark- ing a common grave. Can this be Earth, this sickening monochrome of black and grey? Among the rubble, a tiny heap of rags Moves, stands, and looks at the sun with un- flinching eyes. Here is a child, scarred as the ground on which he stands. His face seems dead as the surroiniding coun- tryside. But now he lifts his head to gaze at the blue sky . . . and smiles. The sold of man again has triumphed over blood and iron. Mrs. Wade, Housewife Sandra Smith, ' 50 The wind howled, and in the distance the eerie vail of a timber wolf chilled Mrs. Wade ' s blood. She pushed the starter once again, but it was useless as the tank registered empty. The next town couldn ' t be far ahead, and there surely was a house some- where along the way. She locked the car, pulled her warm coat about her, and started down the bumpy country road. After what seemed hours, a dreary, dark farm house loomed out of no- where. She climbed the hill leading to the house and crossed the creaky porch. When she touched the door to knock, it opened slowly and noisily before her. Gathering all her courage, she stepped inside. The house was cold and musty, and dust covered every- thing in sight. Mrs. Wade, deciding no one was home, glanced warily about and then spotted an dimes 35 old-fashioned telephone covered with cob- webs. She picked it up antl was about to speak when she heard a board stjueak. Heavy footsteps pounded above her head. The receiver fell out of her shaking hand as she listened to mysterious thuds descending the curving stairs. She searched the room for some means of escape. The door she had entered was blocked by the stairs and by what- ever was approaching her. The huge black shape was getting nearer, nearer! Mrs. Wade shrank back against the wall and her shrill scream pierced the night air. The hideous, toothless face of the shape grinned in self satisfaction and came still nearer, its bony hands clutching the air. Is Mrs. Wade doomed to die at the mercy of this monster? Listen in tomorrow, same time, same station when the makers of Do- All Lainidry Soap will bring you the next chapter in The Everyday Life of Mrs. Sophie Wade, Housewife! Her Majesty, the Sea Annette Milliken, ' 47 Her majesty the sea rides the earth. She is the incomparable queen of the land. Her god and king is the sun, the mightiest man of our iniiverse. The land, domain of oin- lady the sea and lier king, is ever subordinate to them. This lady is the most bewitching woman on earth. All men are attracted to her. There are those who have known her well and have ridden her waves in glory, but there are many who have sacrificed their lives in toil and love, serving her majesty. Men have devoted their lives painting her portrait or singing her praises in poetry. All women admire her beauty, but they fear her majesty as all women fear a fascinating lady. Her voice is the source of all music. Many of the subjects in her kingdom have been inspired by her endless song and have fol- lowed her pattern in order to create some of oin- masterpieces. Her beauty is supreme. Her gowns are swirls of silk of all hues of blue and green ranging from the most delicate pastel to the richest and most royal color. The edges of her ruffles are the loveliest of laces, pure white, the patterns ever changing. Her crown jewels are emeralds, jade, amethysts, sapphires and diamonds. Her dress is embroidered with pearls. Often at night when the sun ' s shadow, the moon, is near, she dresses in the purest white, threaded with silver. In the day when the sini is brightest and she is hap- piest, our lady sparkles and reflects her hap- piness by her golden dress. Hut when her king, the sun, leaves her for a day, she is sad and melancholy, gowned in gray and veiled in a dreary mist. Only when her majesty is angry at her land and its people does she wear inky black, a deep, menacing black. In her anger she is very strong. She punishes her people by lashing out at them bitterly, till they bow in submission once more. But she is magnificent, her majesty the sea. Football Team Manual Spinola, ' 48 Scituate High has a coach with pep; He knows his stuff, which makes him hep. He called his boys to start a team; Some were vets and others were green. But a good squad he had with lots of vim. And here are the boys who played to win: A center, named Ronnie, not too tall, A little like John, always on the ball; An aggressive guard, they called him Frank, Short and lean, but he hit like a tank; Jack, another guard, was Frank ' s running mate, Vhen ojiponents saw him, they ran for the gate; A tackle that everyone knew as Slick — He was the boy that made the team click; Another was Murray with lots of power (When he hit me once, I was out for an hour); Two ends who liked to knock tackles in,— The rugged one Larry, — the speedy one Vin; Terry had spirit, although he was small. He always gave runners a good, hard fall; The backfield had four guys, all very good,— Making a touchdown they gave all they could. Bob ' s own job was calling the plays. His blocking kept opponents in a haze; A hard-hitting back. Bub turned out to be High scorer on the South Shore for class D; A gamester was Buttons, raring to go. Small and shifty and never too slow; Whit did his share of hardwork too. Passing and kicking and rinining them blue. Some ' be back, some will have departed. Our coach will train others and get them started; For making good teams is his one ambition And he is the one who fits this position. 36 A Helping Hand Shirley Damon, ' 48 How many times do we stop to think of the seemingly little things of life that are really so important, those things that make life seem just a little bit easier and the world just a bit friendlier. I ' m referring to the little kindnesses that you and I can show to others at all times — such as a smile instead of a sober or a frowning face; a kind word to a person when he is in doubt or saddened by passing events; an effort to say hello to a person with few friends or to one who is sick. Many peoj le think that doing these extra kindnesses is unimportant, and that you gain nothing by it. These people are mistaken, very much so, because, in fact, you gain a great deal. You not only get a wonderful feeling because you are helping someone, but the person that you ' ve helped thinks a lot more of you. A true story, which further illustrates my point, is one that you possibly may already know. In a neighboring town, not far from here, in a little gray house, lives a friend of mine. He isn ' t the usual type of friend, for I ' ve never talked to him;— in fact, I don ' t even kno v his name! Maybe some of you know him as I do, for his story has travelled to many people. You see, this young man has been stricken with infantile paralysis for many years now. His bed is jjlaced in front of a window in a front room of the house. There he lies, year in and year out, watch- ing the passing traffic. It ' s a sort of tradition with people who know about my friend to honk their horns as they drive past his house. He appreciates this little act of kindness more than wc know, and in answer to the honking of a horn, one can always see in the windo v a frail white arm go up in a wave and fall back again onto the bed. Now, honking a horn to an invalid doesn ' t seem like much of a kindness to do, but for that young man it takes some of the drudgery out of lying in bed all the time. There are many other instances when you can give a helping hand to others. It doesn ' t make any difference what you do, but when- ever you have a chance to help someone out, remember my friend, the boy who waits for just the honking of a horn! Freshman Lyrics Hark! Listen to that deep, dark sound Like drums resounding, coming near! ' Tis only Thunder coming ' round To make his annual visit here. Jane Nord The berry is a rosy red, The fern, a brilliant green; The spruces form a scented bed On which small insects dream. The silent pines, like guards do stand. While gentle breezes blow, And bravely guard the fairy land As down doth drift the snow.

Field Hockey Mary Roy, ' 49 ONCE again the girls ' hockey team has come through as South Shore Cham- pions. Our record, ahhough not a clean sweep as we ' d like, was nevertheless impres- sive with six wins, one tie, and one loss. The season started badly when we returned from an optimistic trip to Cohasset on the short end of a 3 to 1 score. After that defeat, we took Hanover, Braintree, Kingston and Han- over in that order. Then once again we met the strong Cohasset team and after a rough game came through with a 1 to 1 tie. The following two games were easy victories over Plymouth and Hingham. Our first team players were Annette Mil- liken, Pat Manning, Pat Cahir, Virginia Mongeau, Ligi Goddard, Nancy Wyman, Cynthia Chadbourne, Shirley Chadbourne, Jean Holcomb, Lois Karvonen, Jean Prouty, Eleanor Noble and our two freshman repre- sentatives, Nancy Breen and Kathleen Alan- ning. High scorers for the year were Annette Milliken and Pat Manning. The second team, too, showed promise of being champions in years to come. The girls playing on the second team were Marjorie Macy, Frances Dwight, Ann Arapoff, Slieila Mongeau, Josephine Miles, Ann Robischeau, Frances Dyer, Jane Keyes, Marion Dowd, Helen Dowd, Mary Dwight, Virginia Day, Fay IJissell, Jean Vines, Joan Castles, Mar- garet Noble, and Mary Roy. They lost one game to Hingham and tied Braintree and Plymouth. The scores of the first team games were as follows: Scituate 1 Scituate 2 Scituate 2 Scituate 2 Scituate 3 Scituate 1 Scituate 2 Scituate 1 Cohasset 3 Hanover 1 Braintree 1 Kingston 0 Hanover 1 Cohasset 1 Plymouth 0 Hingham 0 The team was ably coached by Miss Ruth Moulton and efficiently managed by Gladys Hill, and assistant manager, Louise Reddy. 40 GIRLS ' BASKETBALL First Row: P.

It was a varied assortment of candidates that turned out for football practice on Sep- tember 8, but the patience and expert coach- ing of Mr. Stewart soon transformed them into a promising team, although only three members of the squad were experienced players. We lost our first game to Somerset, 0-13, and our first home game to Medfield, 7-12. Our next game, with Marshfield, raised our hopes for a successful season. This was the first league game and we walked off the field with a 33-0 victory. After defeating Marsh- field, the team seemed to develop new spark and went on to defeat Millis, 54 - 27. With two victories to our credit, the game with Stetson attracted a large number of fans. In the first of the third quarter, with the score 0 - 0, Scituate held Stetson for four downs on their own t vo-yard line. The resulting score 0 - 0 seemed more of a victory than a tie for Scituate. November 1 1 proved to be a trying expe- rience for the team of ' 46. They met that day on the Hanover field to compete for the South Shore League Championship. Scituate scored in the first quarter and again in the second, making the score at the half 12-0 in favor of Scituate. In the third period Hanover blocked a kick and then scored on a forward pass. Again in the last two minutes of the game Hanover scored and made the conversion. Hanover then led 12 - 14. With thirty seconds to play Scituate took the ball. There was a fake, a lateral pass, and then a forward pass. Our end, L. Dwyer, completed the pass and was tackled on the three-yard line where the game immediately ended. The very same week in which Scituate experienced this tragic disappointment they were scheduled to meet the powerful Oliver .Vmes team. It was the last home game of the season, and a large crowd gathered to see whether or not the boys had lost their pep. Although very much outweighed, the (Continued on Page 43) 42 BOYS ' BASKETBALL First Row: M. ,8pinola, V. Diinphy, J. Goddard. J. Devine. G. Coblictt. T. Butler. Second Row : Manager R. Rich. H.

Basketball Tom Breen, ' 47 THE Scituate High basketball team started the season coached by Mr. Stewart, our former athletic director, who has returned from service in the navy. The team showed its possibilities by defeating Pembroke 28 to 21 in the first game. One of the most out- standing games of the year was with King- ston at Kingston. In the last quarter the score was tied, 30 - 30, with only a minute to play. Scituate broke the tie with a foul shot and then with a few seconds remaining got a basket to end the game 33 to 30 for Scituate. The best game of the year was the Scituate-Hanover game at Hanover. Han- over had defeated us on our o vn floor and anticipated an easy victory. But Scituate really went to town, and edged out Han- over 44-42. This defeat broke Hanover ' s long record of victories for the past several years. The following boys were on the ' 47 basket- ball team: T. Butler, H. Velch, R. AVhittaker, G. Cobbett, J.

In this one game every member of the team proved outstanding and displayed a great deal of spirit and good football. Oiu traditional Thanksgiving Day game with Cohasset proved to be a very exciting one. Although both teams were evenly matched and eager to claim a victory, Scitu- ate came through with a 6 - 0 victory. The result of the entire season was four wins, one tie, and three losses.
