FRESHMAN CLASS Thomas Whittaker, ' 54 The Freshman class entered school in Septem- ber, hoping to become a credit to our school and confident of success. We welcomed several new members to our class. They were Judith Lieber, Bonnie Austin, Ray Fisher, Mike Fortman, Peter Anderson, and Donald Dunne. At our first class meeting officers and advisers were elected. Charles Goddard was chosen presi- dent; Russell Prouty. vice president; Nancy Tag- gart, treasurer; and Molly Marsh, secretary. Mr. Johnson and Miss Hawkes were elected advisers. Many members of our class have taken part in extra-curricular activities. Our class is well represented in the band and orchestra, and many boys and girls have been on athletic teams. The freshman class was very proud to have the winning basketball team in the intramural basketball games during Blue and White Week. We defeated the seniors! In our days in S. H. S. the Freshman Class is going to try its best to become a credit to our school. We hope we will succeed.

Those elected were Mike Veiga, president: John Nitzsche, vice president: Dorothy Kane, secre- tary; and Lois Newcomb, treasurer. For our advisers we chose Miss Vinal and Mr. Kreimer. As a whole our class has not done many things together, but we are well represented in extra- curricular activities. Many members of the class participated in football, basketball, and base- ball. Soine of us were also members of the all- school play cast. In April we held our annual dance with the Freshmen. This was well attended by all classes. As the end of the year approaches, we look forward to our Junior Year, when we will be upperclassmen.

18 JUNIOR HIGH Grade 8 Marilyn Sverisoii In September, a group of students, more or less enthusiastic, rushed into Rooms 201 and 202. For once we had the laugh on the 7th graders! However, the girls would like to forget a certain basketball game played during Blue and White Week. 7A defeated 8A and 8B. The 8th grade boys don ' t have to worry; they won! October 11, 88 gave a very interesting assem- bly about the flags that have been planted on American soil. They made the flags and dis- played them as they talked. January 18, 8B gave a Variety Assembly. There were two plays: Lucky Girl, the story of a group of girls entertaining a movie star, and The Fatal Pickle. the story of a boy who thinks he is a basketball hero. The program included a biography of John Sousa, one of Sousa ' s marches, and some choral reading. We made the following booklets this year: The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, a Christmas booklet, and a patriotic unit for Miss Cunneen; a Transportation and Communication Booklet for Mrs. Williams: a Science Booklet for Miss Giles; and a booklet on one of the American possessions for Mr. Driscoll. In the fall, the Junior High played two field hockey games at Marshfield and Hanover. We lost them both, 2-0. This was not bad consider- ing that we had only one practice game. We hope we have made a good impression in the Junior High, and that we will make an even better one in Senior High. Junior High Magazine Drive Marilyn Svenson This year, the Junior High again carried on the Magazine Drive. Each year this drive is sponsored by the Curtis Publishing Co. There were two teams: the Army and Navy. Mrs. Williams was captain of the Navy, and Mr. Dris- coll was captain of the Army team. The Navy won. Joan Agnew, of the Army team, was the high-salesman for the school. The profits of the drive went to the bleachers fund and for Junior High Assemblies. Grade 7 Susan Cole Almost everyone in the seventh grade liked the changes in the Junior High although it is very different from the Elementary School. In October we made autumn booklets for Miss Cunneen, the Junior High English teacher. In November we made Thanksgiving booklets, also for Miss Cunneen. We made a Hall of Fame, which was a biog- raphy of the ten men we think did the most for America up to about 1800. This was under the direction of Mrs. Williams, the Junior High history teacher. In hygiene we made written reports on several of the men and women in that field for Mr. Driscoll, the Junior High hygiene teacher. My Loyalty Test Gail McCarthy, 8B Am 1 loyal to my school in every way possible, and do 1 show the proper school spirit? Loyalty is important in school and everywhere in life. Loyalty is devotion to all that your school repre- sents. I should appreciate what my school does for me and make every effort to contribute my best at all times. There are many ways in which I may show my school spirit. I can be a good sport. That does not always mean 1 have to be a player on a team, but it does mean that I am fair, courteous, and interested in all my school activities, whether on the athletic field, in the classroom, or in the assembly hall. I will know and sing the Alma Mater proudly at home or away to show my love for my school. I will contribute cheerfully to the various funds and activities and even if it is a small amount, it will help. I will be an S. A. member and support the athletic activities in that way. If I am asked to co-operate in an activity, I will do it pleasantly, not half-heartedly. I will try my best to have the school have a happy busy atmosphere about it. Then a visitor may say, What a fine place this school is! It all adds up to this: I will do my best, I will be my best, and then my school will be the best.
