SEARLES HIGH SCHOOL 1941 CLASS PCE When we, the Class of Forty-one, pass on like those before, And leave these ivy-covered walls, the place we much adore, We'll always look ahead of us-the future in our view- To bring about a richer life and make our dreams come true. Vlfhenever one sets out upon the road to find his aim, He needs must have a worthy guide to lead him on toward fame: The teachers we may call our guides who helped us on the way And made the long and trying road much easier day by day. Before we go we'd like to leave a parting thought behind: Regardless of what arduous task this world for us may hnd, The molto that will ever keep our heads remaining high, alle conquers who has conquered self, shall never in us die. -Fay Pntnaude 1941 EDWARD F. SEAuLif:s Hion Scnoor CLASS SONG The time has come when we must say, Farewell, Searles High, to youg And as we venture forth in life, We'll aim for honor true. Well strive to be a credit to Our colors black and golclg Our motto in our hearts We'll keep, The future to unfold. Weill often travel Memoryis Lane Witli you to spend a clay, For precious will these moments seem To us along Life's way. We're leaving you for greater hopes That reach an unknown skyg And in our hearts again we say, 'Glfarewell to you, Searles High. H-Muriel Llkmi Itlfllglllf EDWARD F.

SEARLES HIGH SCHOOL 19.11 RALPH DAVENPORT ABERCROMBIE, JR. Believe it or not Football 2, 3, 4 Track 2, 3, 4 Hi-Y 2, 3, 4 Commencement is quite a character. He has a tend- ency to spin yarns more or less fictional in character. His imagination gives these yarns a very interesting quality. We expect to hear from him later on.

He is very active in sports. When he is among friends he is very talkative and makes any conversation as interesting one. Lots of luck, Joe, in the future. LILLIAN KATHRYN ANDRUCHOW Ambition is the basis of success .. , ,, 9 it Gills .A.A-. .. . . Lillian IS very 3l'I1lJltl0llS. She goes about her work with a zeal which is very fine to see. She is very quiet and seldom asserts herself. She seems to feel that others can do enough talking' out of turn to make up for her lack of noisiness. lf she is convinced of something, however. she is not afraid to let anyone know what she feels. Here? luck, Lillian, for you in all your future work. DIANA HARRI ARAKELIAN With never an idle moment Girls' A..-X. 2 Girl Reserves 2, 3, 1 Glee Club Diana is one member of our class who is well-liked and combines the well-known beauty and brains. She is leav- ing: this section of the country next year to attend ,Mary Washington College in Virginia. From all indications, she should be a ,fzreat success, and we'll all be wanting to hear from her soon as one of the students of that well- known college. Lots of luck, Diana. FRED ARTHUR ARCHAMBAULT. JR. All luck is caused by good work 5 '1 Football 3, 4 Serious in appearance, sociable by nature, Fred's shy manners deceive none of his friends. Calmness and dil- igence seem to belong' to him in great measure. We wish you all the luck in the world. Fred. 14 1941 EDWARD F. SEARLES HIGH SCHOOL MARION E. AUSTIN Industry brings its own reward Quiet and reserved, ,Marion belongs to our class as one of those silent rooters which are a necessity. She is loyal to her friends and when with them she becomes more talkative. We Wish you success, Marion! MARGUERITE MARIE AZNOIAN Where did you get those eyes? Marge is the proud owner of a pair of large brown eyes, the envy of many a girl. Not the least of her attributes is a pleasing taste in dress, plus a marked ability in de- signing and sewing.

SEARLES HIGH SCHOOL 1941 CLASS HISTORY F one were to write a biography or an autobiography, he would find ,, that his material would fall, almost of itself, into definite periods or epochs of the life under consideration. Since our high school years have constituted a formative, as well as happy, epoch of our lives, let us review these years briefly. r- . . . . N X s'x'e P BTXTNTNK' First, we recall many joyous occasions of our sophomore year. Although we considered ourselves fully capable of commencing this new life, the up- per classmen readily established us in the category of newcomers to a for- eign land. Nevertheless, we gradually increased in proficiency. As was customary, the officials of our sophomore class were elected early in the year. Those meeting with our approval were John Lee, president: Daniel Burton, vice president: Theresa Whelan, secretary: and Edwin Berry, treasurer. Sophomore members of the Student Council were Winifred Mcflomish and Andrew Partington. Early in the fall of 1938, we participated in our first social event, the Sophomore Reception, tendered to us by the senior class. The highlight of the evening was a grand march led by the president of the senior class. This affair, together with the Sophomore Party, formed an important part of the year's entertainment. Unnoticed, time stole onward and then we were ready to proceed with our junior year, ushered in by the election of class ofliicers. Those winning ofhce were: president, John Lee: vice president, Robert Collins: secretary, Winifred McComishg and treasurer, lidwin Berry. The three delegates to Student Council were ,lean Perry, Donald Jackson, and .-Xndrew Partington. Then came a major event of our junior year, namely, the selection of a class ring. Through the commendatory efforts of the committee in charge, consisting of one member from each home room. junior rings were made available earlier than usual. The gold rings were embellished with the symbolic figure of Searles Tower and the word Methuen engraved on a black background. The ,lunior Party, scheduled for the month of March, was held at the Central School Hall. An entertainment featuring talent from our own class, dancing, and refreshments made that a memorable evening. :Xs the year was gradually drawing to a close, a meeting was held to as- sign to the student who had excelled in American History throughout the 58 1941 w EDWARD F. SEARLES Hicii SCHooL year the Washington and Franklin medal award. The honor was conferred upon George Jagger, a worthy recipient. Among those who were presented with history books for superior work in this subject were Phyllis Nimmo, Eileen Lanctot, Elizabeth Furneaux, Ethel Fuller, Joseph Fragala, Fred Spear, Milton Grossman and Oscar Gronbeck. An occasion which brought forth much acclaim for the high school band was the New England Conclave held at Lawrence. Under the supervision of its competent director, Harold McDonnell, the band demonstrated the su- perior ability with which it had long been accredited. As a reward for its accomplishments, a celebration was held for the entire musical unit. With the passing of these two years, we were facing the concluding year of our high school career. With the confident attitude which governed all our actions, we met to choose our oliicers. Robert Collins succeeded to the presidency and Arthur Egerton to the vice presidency. Winifred lVlcComish was reelected secretary and Edwin Berry, treasurer. We were repre- sented on the Student Council by Theresa Whelan, Lois Whitehead, Andrew Partington, and George Jagger. Having knowledge of the busy social program scheduled for the year and realizing that time waits for neither man nor high school pupil, we deviated from our usual course to formulate plans for the Sophomore Reception. The cooperation of the higher classes was greatly appreciated by the sophomores and was returned by their attendance at the Senior Party, a very gay and successful affair held a few months afterward. ln December, rehearsals began for the senior play, entitled HAlmost Eighteenf' and Edwin Berry and Christine Coulter were chosen for the lead- ing roles. The performances of all the members of the cast proved the dramatic talents of our seniors to an audience which showed its appreciation by the rounds of applause following each act. The profit reaped from this presentation exceeded that of all other years and greatly increased the money in our treasury. Another means of raising funds to lessen the graduation expenses was the magazine drive. Results of the progress in each home room were tabulated daily. The radio awarded for the largest number of subscriptions went to Miss Southworthls room. As a result of these magazine drives, we now have two rooms in the building equipped with radios. The Methuen High School was duly represented by Phyllis Nimmo at the state meeting, in Boston, of the Daughters of the Xmeric-an Revolution. Each year a member of the senior class is selected by vote to at-l as a delegate at this convention. 59 EDWARD F. SEARLES HIGH SCHOOL 1941 In the field of athletics, the football and basketball teams fought their way to victory during the season of '40 and '41. The basketball team cap- tured the trophy at the North Shore Tournament, and the team was also entered in the M.I.T. Tournament. The time had come at last for the cadets to present their Military Ball. ln preparation, the High School Cadet Corps Liniform Drive was launched by the Parent-Teachers, Association and supported by the ofhcers of the cadets. On the night of the Ball, the cadets, arrayed in their new uniforms, and led by Major Gaston Ouellette and his lady, took part in a colorful grand march, followed by dancing to the music of Baron Hugo's orchestra. Now that June was drawing near, we seniors anxiously awaited one of the greatest moments of our lives. On June 6th, our last social affair, the Senior Prom, held as usual in the Central School Hall, was attended by a large gathering. We felt that we had never witnessed a more beautiful spec- tacle as we gazed at the shimmering whirl of color. At last we have arrived at our graduation week. Some of us are happy, many of us are sad. This epoch of our lives is over. Let us now look ahead to the future, hearing in mind our class motto: He Conquers Who Conquers Himself. -Mar-v Stewart 60 1941 EDWARD F. SEARLES HIGH SCHOOL CLASS PRDPHECY TIME: 1951- PLACE! Bruno St Matses Stadium. EVENT: Game between Boston Red Sox and Detroit Tigers. jane: Hello, Roger. It's been a long time since I've seen you! Roger: Why hello, Jane. What are you doing these days? jane: I'm society editor for HThe Daily Star. I suppose you,re still scouting for the Braves. Roger: Yes, I am. Isn't uThe Daily Starw James Day,s newspaper? I was just reading an excellent editorial by Phyllis Nimmo. Jane: Oh, yes, several of our old school friends are on the staff. HBing Doherty is the head of the circulation department, Arthur Egerton and Alfred Nicholson are sports reporters, Billy Liversidge writes a column called HSpelling Simplifiedf' and Eddie Haller draws cartoons. By the way, what has happened in the game so far? Roger: The score is 1-O in favor of the Red Sox, thanks to Buck', Boehmgs home run drive into the right field bleachers. The Sox were in trouble only once, in the second inning, when the bases were loaded: but the keystone combination of Altott and Richardson pulled off a fast double play to end the inning. I guess the Sox will win because Medauer is pitch- ing a whale of a game, and Ciras is catching. jane: No wonder Richardson and Medauer are playing such a good game. There are Barbara and Winnie in box seats cheering for them. I heard that Governor Robert Collins was to throw out the first ball. Roger: Yes, he threw it out. You would have missed more of the game, but Alderman Dixon delayed the start by an hour-long speech of welcome to the governor. He was finally stopped by his wife, Qyou remember Ethel lVIcCrathj who was tugging at his sleeve. fone: Why, there's Senator Reynolds buying a chicken barbecue from Mike Bogosian. I see that all the Senator's companions are carrying dic- tionaries. I guess heis living up to his high school reputation. Roger: Yes, and there's Hinch down there fast asleep, as usual. I see that he has one of Lee and Kay's soft drinks beside him. lane: Oh, there are Fred Spear, Ruth Bullock, Grace Pulsifer and Muriel Turcotte in the band, and Iive just made another note for my society column- Louise Siskind, the famous social butterfly, is down there with Lydia Shapiro. Lydiais a popular Broadway actress, you know. til EDWARD F. SEARLES HIGH SCHOOL 1941 Roger: Look at Warren Gilman peddling his ice-cream. He has just sold some to Robert Stuart. Bob's a salesman for Sears Roebuck. Jane: I hear some planes overhead. Oh look, Roger! One of them is advertising Jackson 81 Brigg's 'clfverlasting Cigarsf, What does the other ad say? Oh yes, Learn Howto Throw it, in Ten Easy Lessons. See Abercrombie Toclayf, Roger: Those planes are designed by Charles Fleming and Clifton Batcheller. By the way, l suppose you know that this stadium was constructed by Peter Stravinskas and painted by Harry Taylor. Arthur Cerstenberger and Oscar Gronbeck, the ground-keepers, keep it in good condition. When Bruno and Matses promoted the scheme for a new stadium, people predicted failure, but it seems to be a success. jane: Doesnit Ed Pfund do a good job of announcing the game! But what is ,lean Perry doing in front of the microphone now? Oh, 1 remember: someone told me that she describes the game for feminine listeners- inter- prets some of Ed's technical language, etc. Roger: l see Milton Grossman down there. He was supposed to finish his interneship last year, but he decided to stay another year because of the pretty nurses, Ruth Wright, Ethel Fuller, and Dorothy Olds. They say that Agatha Strayinsky, Mary Regan, Theresa Whelan, lrene Waring and Fay Patnaude are also nurses, but they are in other hospitals. fone: Have you heard about the former football captains, Andy Part- ington and Pete llemerjian? They're coaching a girls' football team, which is made up of such huskies as Marion Austin, Lucille Michaud, Caroline Palese, Marion ,lohnson, Daisy Woodburn and Rosemary Mishio. Roger: I notice that Kathleen Ueylin just came in. She's as late as ever. And there are Priscilla Hill, Shirley Hazelhurst, and lrene Harnisch. They always were inseparable. fone: l met l lorence Hethcrington and Mildred Uelsucia on the street yesterday. They are court stenographers now. They told me that Eddie Berry is in jail for bigamy. They also told me about Krikor Drigian's trial for speeding. Robert Smith was the presiding judge. The policeman who brought Krikor in was Ernest Mack. Krikoifs attorney, Billy Sweeney, maintained it must be a case of mistaken identity. Helen Mcllwain was sitting on the sidelines: she's the court interpreter. Roger: l was in the Methuen library the other day. The librarians are old friends of ours, Christina Morse, Lorraine Dion, Elizabeth Slack and Ada Howe. fone: l have the latest edition of 4'The Staff here. Thereis a column on How to Keep Your Husband, written, in collaboration, by Virginia 62 1941 EDWARD F. SEARLES HIGH SCHOOL Morey, Irene Dussault, and Rita Cox. They certainly ought to know. Roger: Oh, look at Mickey Bajor down there. He runs a school for young women, you know. Thatls his faculty with him. He employs Virginia Richardson as of dean of girls. Phyllis Krasnowski is physical instructor and the rest of the teachers are Eileen Lanctot, Genevieve Hayes, and Veron- ica Tanana. Alfred Eaton seems to be the only male instructor. I'll bet he's in his glory. Roger: Here's an article about the school board. I guess members Persis Pendleton, Melva Seymour and Juliette Shantery have a hard time restraining the radical ideas of chairman Monette. He wants to pass a motion to restrict the home work of the pupils to one assignment a month. Jane: Here' a news story about Frank Balfour and Wallace Smith. T'hey,re making an expedition into the wilds of Africa. Frank's ability as an expert marksman should prove useful there. Hubert Mason is going along as the photographer. The Archambault and Shuter Steamship liner is now on its way to the South Sea Islands, says this article from the Travel Section, edited by Lil- lian Moore. Among the vacationists are Edith Mitchell, Lillian Pasquille, Anna Vogler, and Jeanette Breton, wtho has already captured the hearts of the coptain and the crew. The reason Jeanette went on the cruise was to for- get about her broken engagement-her fourth, I believe. Same old Jeanette! Roger: T'here's a couple over there with a portable radio. Why, it,s Shirley Harris and Herbie Saba. The last song they played was the HStan- ley Mitchell Stomp, sung by Lillian Sears, and isn't that Irene Denis sing- ing Muriel Wainwright's latest song? Oh, they're tuning in on my favorite 'cquizi' program, conducted by Norman Fitzgerald. On the board of experts are Mary LaRosa and Dorothy Cipolla. Dorothy is almost impossible to Hstumpw on a question. Compet- ing with the regular experts are Audrey French, Lillian Jozak and Norma Furneaux, as their guests. lane: Oh, yes, I heard that program last week. One of the guests was Ruth Schruender. Well, the game's over. I'm afraid we didn't see much of itg we were too busy talking about old friends. Roger: Let's run to get a bus. ON THE BUS lane: Well, I certainly was surprised to see Pat Thurston driving the bus, weren't you? She's the president of the bus driver's union, which has for its members, Marguerite Quigley, Frances Potter, Evelyn Yaleourl. Lillian Andruchow and Virginia Nleinelt. 1533 EDWARD F. SEARLES HIGH SCHOOL 1941 Roger: I guess since the army has taken so many men, the girls have to fill in at the men's jobs. Gaston Ouellette, George Russell, Howard Bards- ley and Russell Eichler are all doing their bit for Uncle Sam. I hear that Kenneth Petzold is a test pilot in the army, too. jane: Oh, there's Ann DeRoche's dress shop. I was in there the other day, and who do you think are her models? Louise Deady, Lois Whitehead, Diana Arakelian, Edith Flanders, Rose Souther and Arlene Ery. Roger: Across the street there is Kenny Mahan's escort bureau. The sign says: 'GEscorts to suit any young ladyf' I guess Kenny keeps quite busy. I ran into Kenny Scherig the other night. I guess he has quite a big bus- iness herein New York. Virginia Tinsch is his secretary. He employs Marguerite Aznoian, Dorothy Brown, Nellie Brigulio, Barbara Boisvert and Linda Berardi to help his chief accountant, Melvin Berger, keep the com- pany's hnances straight. jane: I suppose you know that Christine Coulter is happily married to Dick, and that Waldo Stevens has been begging Natalie to marry him for five years, but Natalie has decided to be stubborn. Roger: Oh, yes, everyone knows that. Oh, thereis the flower shop run by Everett Schubert, John Renaud and Warren Lodge. They held a flower show last week. l'residing over the booths and exhibits were Calatea Mar- iolis, Lottie Marchlik and Nlelyina Mgrdichian. lane: On the next corner is the Wornen's Uainty Lingerie Store, run by Leo Walsh and Tommy Burke. Their chief salesgirls are ,Ioan Weston, Janet Nassi and .-Xgnes Keamy. Roger: Only a block from here is Bertha Subaclfs restaurant. Let's go in and get a bite to eat. fone: Eine! Oh look, thereis the roller skating rink. Joe Cage is an instructor there and I hear that Alice Hajjar, .-Xlfred Caron, Henry Uoerr. :Xlbert Hoffman, Betty Hamilton and Nishon O'Hanian are often to be found skating there. That beauty parlor sign reminds me that l have an appointment to have my hair done tomorrow morning. l go to the beauty shop owned by Sophie Kachuck, Ruth Hurrell and Ruth Zakoian. Hereis the restaurant. Let-s go in. INSIDE THE RESTALRANT Roger: The autograph fans certainly do swarm around Enid Brearley. She's an opera star now and Robert Baker sings opposite her. l hear that Lillian Hasbany is to make her debut as a concert singer tomght. That skilled pianist, Evelyn I-Ialler, will accompany her. G4 1941 EDWARD F. SEARLES HIGH SCHOOL fone: Here comes our waitress, Beatrice Eeugill. The other waitresses here are Methuen girls, too- Jackie Moren-cy, Gladys Nutton, and Nevina Viglione. There's Connie Ouellette two tables over. He and Victor McKen- zie pose for clothes ads now. Roger: Have you read George Jagger's latest book, MOH with the Breeze? Quite a few of our old friends have become writers. Betty Eur- neaux and Alice Gardner have written a book called MHousehold Hintsf, and Kenneth Skea has just published a book which ought to be of help to high school pupils. It is called HHow to Write a Book Report without Reading the Bookf, jane: Our classmates certainly are becoming famous. I have just fin- ished reading Joe Eragala's best-seller, HThe Sheik of Hoboken, and I saw a movie the other night in which Mary Whelan was the star and Lilly Corey the comedienne. Roger: I saw that, too. It's the new musical comedy with Rose Leduc, Emily Zekis, Claire Burke, Jackie Morin, and Katherine Bogannam in the chorus. Danny Burton did a good job of directing the chorus girls, didn't he? Jane: Leave it to Dan. Look at Genevieve Kaled over there. I thought I recognized that giggle. Who is that young woman the reporters are trying to interview? Why, I do believe it,s Nancy Kimball, the great bare-baick rider. Harold Nutter is asking her to smile while 'he snaps her picture for his paper, and Ethel Shar- smitt seems to be making notes describing her costume for the fashion news. Roger: I was talking with Arthur Causer yesterday. He is head of a large advertising concern, and he told me that Hazel Casby, Evelyn Harrell and Rosina Bonanno are among his most skilled copy writers. He said he often sees Barbara Cedergren, Mary Stewart and Cecile Tur- mel on their way to the airport. They are plane hostesses, you know. fone: What has become of Milton Myette? I thaven't seen him for years. Roger: You would see him if you were a basketball fan. He is one of the sport7s most sought after ofhcials. fone: Just look at the time! I must rush! It's been nice to see you and talk over old times. Goodbye, Roger. Roger: Goodbye. fone Curtin Roger Lafrerzier 155 EDWARD F. SEARLES HIGH SCHOOL 1941 IVY ORATIO S we, the Class of Nineteen Hundred Forty-One, gather together today, we realize that one period of our lives is almost at an end, the care- free, lighthearted, and happy days of youth. When we leave our High School to step out into the world- either to advanced schools or to work- we shall be under our own guidance. We shall meet with difficulties that will appear insuperable. It has, perhaps, always been arduous to enter into active life, but now with the whole world in such a hopeless tangle, socially, economically, and morally, it seems even more difficult than ever. Indeed, we enter the world in one of its darkest moments: a world ,filled with fear, hate, persecution, and destruction. Yet if the problems appear more difficult than formerly, our efforts must be that much sturdier, and our success, as a result, the more precious. Let us, for a few moments, leave the problems of the world and our fut- ure, and consider our school. Notice how the ivy planted in years gone by has steadily climbed the brick walls, and made them appear more substan- tial and more beautiful. When ivy begins to develop, it faces the seemingly insurmountable problems of drought, insects, and cold--all of which threat- en its very existence. Nevertheless, the ivy continues lo grow and to climb: it overcomes the drought by digging deep for moisture and by storing a surplus in its roots: the insects, by developing new leaves faster than the destructive pests devour the old: the cold, by shedding its leaves and lying dormant during the winter. .lust as the ivy planted by former classes has climbed higher and higher toward the topmost parts of our stately building, so our own ivy, we know, will fight with perseverance to attain the heights and thus further beautify our school. We should use this indomitable vine as a guide and an inspiration. Our teachers and our principal have carefully superintended our high school years and have helped mould our characters. Now we are about to put our- selves to the test. Although the young ivy is being transplanted into new surroundings, we know that it will live and develop. We, also, are entering the world while we are still young and uncertain and, like the ivy, we must Work and climb, store and plan, endure in order to succeed. When we step out into the world, we shall have no teachers to urge us on: consequently, we, by ourselves, must work for our place in life. He who, through despair and discouragement, still perseveres will, in the end, be the most successful. According to Webster- to persevere is to continue in a 66 1941 g EDWARD F. SEARLES HIGH SCHOOL given course especially in the face of despair, opposition, and remons- trance. Suppose that Louis Pasteur had given up his work when his first experiment was unsuccessful, that Columbus had turned back in fear when for long Weeks he did not sight land, or that George Washington or Abraham Lincoln had surrendered or even given up hope after a few defeats! These men did not give up, turn back, or surrender, but they, through their per- severance, multiplied by the perseverance of thousands of other great figures from the past have produced the many benefits of our modern civilization. We may well look to such men for our incentive to persevere. Our little ivy plant is weak, but in that weakness lies its strength. ltcan- not grow unsupported, but it nevertheless adds dignity and stability to what- ever it adorns. Part of the year it appears lifeless and ugly, but when nature is favorable it becomes vital and beautiful. Although We are young, We have the courage and the vigor of youth. We must carry our hopes high, and when our opportunity arrives We shall succeed in climbing to the heights and in adding brilliance and success to our world. f-Elizabeth Furneaux 157 EDWARD F.

Paul Hinch, Joseph Waitkewicz, Alan Abbott, John Pelzar, Emil Lange, Jerome Jackson, Kenneth Rogers, Norman Samels and Ronald Binns. 77 -EDWARD F.

In addition to being Greater WW' Lawrence Champions, the squad also has captured the North Shore Trophy. The team was coached by Ernest Ramsbottom, assisted by John Keefe. The teamis cooperation with Captain Edward Buck Boehm was the factor that decided its great success during the season. The squad also entered the Tech Tournament, but it was eliminated before the play-off. Joe Ciras had 192 points, Bob Medauer 148, and Buck Boehm 134 points to lead the scorers.

We have a situation parallel to last year's for our captain has been declared ineligible because of over-age. It will be remembered that last year the captain could not participate because of injuries. We feel sure, however, that handicapped as the team is by the loss of Captain Donald Jackson as an active participant, they will do their utmost to bring credit to M.H.S. Of one thing we may be sure, Methuen will be proud of the fine spirit that the squad will show.
