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.

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.
