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.

Class of 1949 Frances Dyer, Nancy Gilley THE class of 1949 is growing in leaps and bounds! 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.

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.
