FRESHMAN CLASS John Cahir, John Goodnoiv INTO the halls of Scituate High last September came the Class of 1951. Three new students joined our ranks. They were James Milroy from North Quincy, Peter Bennett from Philadelphia, and Connie Mendell, from Dayton. Ohio. We lost Robert Heywood to Cohasset High School. At our first class meeting we elected Eugene Cohen, president; Scott Roberts, vice president: Mar) Luce. secretar : and Joseph Cerilli. treas- urer. We also unanimously elected Mr. Walker and Miss Rowell as class advisers. A Freshman-Sophomore dance was held April 2. Mary Jane Stewart. Arthur Dunphv. and Jane Flaherty worked very ably as freshman members of the committee. The B. U. tests for the Freshmen showed that the class was well above average in scholarship. Many of the Freshman went out for athletics, and among them are some leading candidates for next year ' s teams. The Freshman Class has taken part in a wide field of activities in 1947-48, and we hope to be a leader in the years to come.

Man) got letters and certificates. The Sophomore girls of the Household Arts class gave a very successful Christmas tea for parents and members of the faculty. In the early spring they prepared a series of luncheons, which gave the girls experience in cooking, serving, and being hostesses. The all-school production spotlighted mam Sophomores, including Charmaine Witt, Bar- bara Cole, and Nancy Litchfield. Nancy Breen.

14 Eighth Grade News Jebby Burnham, 8A Jack KettelL SB On Wednesday, September 3, 1947. about 70 boys and girls arrived in Mrs. Williams ' and Miss Cunneen ' s rooms with a feeling of know- how and were prepared to show off and give instructions to our lower classmen, the seventh grade. We were, of course, the superior people of junior high. We looked forward eagerly to our new work and classes, such as shop and household arts. The Junior High part of the All-School play was a television act. which consisted of a variety entertainment including the all-girl chorus of the eighth grade girls, a butterfly ballet, and other features. The girls in 8A started a fad of wearing Eton hats and the seventh grade enthusiastically copied them. All the girls try to get a different colored one. Five new boys have entered Scituate High. The boys are Joseph Veiga. Vasco Rodrigues, Fidelio Rodrigues. Casimiro Fernandez, and Augusto Andrade. All boys are working hard and will be a credit to our school. Several bovs from junior high went out for football and made good. Among them were Howard Mecca Cole, Henry Hank Cusick, Robert Cashman, Tom Snow, and Bowman Locklin. Howard Cole was on the varsity, while Henry Cusick was sent in as a valuable substitute inany times. A history club has been started by Mis. Wil- liams of oB which includes both eighth grades. The first meeting was held on January 16. and the plan is to hold meetings every other week. Both grades were sorr to hear of Miss Row- ell ' s temporary absence but feel that Miss Bour- nazos is a capable substitute. We are proud of Mecca Cole, who made the varsity on both the football and basketball teams. oB put on a historical assembly which was enjoyed by the junior high. Seventh Grade News Stephen Chadbourne, 7A Sheila Mahoney, 7B One of the largest seventh grades ever to enter Scituate High School put in an appearance early Wednesday morning, September 3. 1947. It felt very strange to come up to the High School and change from room to room. Every- body was confused as to which room he was to go to. Occasionally someone would get lost and have to be set right again. Now we have become so used to things wo might be called old timers. We have two new students in the seventh grade. Bertie Jean Walker from Rhod e Island and Daniel De Gorge from Newton, who have already made nian friends. However, although we gained two new students, we lost a very good one, Aram Brazilian, but he is expected to return soon. Some of the girls from the seventh grade took part in the All-School Show. They were in the Junior High part of the program, which was a Television Act. Since the eighth grade can show such fine examples of sportsmanship, we must mention two people who have played very well on the basket- ball teams. Mary Goodnow and Mike Veiga did an excellent job this year and we are very proud of them both. The eighth grade girls have developed the new fad of wearing Eton hats and the seventh grade have taken to the idea eagerlv. We are all looking forward to more happy years at Scituate High School. S.
