St-:,x1n.r:s lilllll Scnooi. 1943 Glam sliwtoaq Hlf history of the Class of 191-3 is unlike the narrative records of pre- 3,,x:,g,: rious years. Our class, not unfortunate, but proud of the task be- MW' stowed upon our chosen generation in a world at war, has been affected by the 'Wictory Campaign, and the patriotic fervor which, since December Tth, l9'lil, has surrounded these ivy-covered wallsf ln the heart of every graduate is the desire for a lasting, enduring peace. We are the citizens of tomorrow: we shall light for the preservation of democracy! :Ks bewildered Sophomores, we unaware of these realities, and of the dis- turbing clouds ahead, as we entered this enchanting Castle of Knowledge in the fall of l9Al0. Our anxieties diminished as we became accustomed to the helpful, encouraging teachersg and we enthusiastically delved into our studies with earnest ellorts. Our first assembly on the lawn was held on a sunny September day for the purpose of electing class ollicers. Frank Adam- son was elected as president, William Bunting, vice-presidentg Ruth Dean, secretary, and Sidney Scarth, treasurer. Ruth White and Claire Abercrom- bie were chosen to serve on the Student Council. We were officially welcomed into the High School by the senior class in October at the Sophomore Reception. Dancing and refreshments were en- joyed by all. In lVlarch, we held the Sophomore Party which proved to be a success, and a credit to all serving on the entertainment and refreshment committees. Dancing was enjoyed to the music of Tommy Sousa and his orchestra. With renewed vigor we commenced our junior year. Frank Adamson was re-elected president, Whitney Hager, vice-presidentg Ruth Dean, sec- retary, and Ruth White, treasurer. Raymond Whitehead and Harry Harris were selected to represent our class at the Student Council. N We shall never forget the morning of December 8th, 194l. In our His- tory classes we listened to the Declaration of War by President Roosevelt and the Congress over the radio. This eventful day changed many of the chosen careers of our classmates. At this period our hearts were also saddened at the sudden death of Miss Lord, the Dean of Girls, who for so long had guided us with friendly en- couragement. Despite the sorrowful atmosphere, and the prediction of a troubled fu- ture, we held the annual Junior Party in February at the Central School hall. 50 l t N Xt. 2943 g gggg yygg gggg f2YVARD F. SEAHLEs Hlcu Sciioop Bed and white valentine decorations and baloons comprised a colorful back- ground for dancing. Music was provided by Carrorfs Orchestra. Time sped ong and the Class Bing was chosen by a capable committee. The simplicity and charm of the plain-gold Victory ring, with the tra- ditional Searles tower mounting captivated the hearts of everyone. Our rings won the envious admiration of both upper and lower classmates. As the months quickly flew by, we eagerly anticipated the presentation of the Washington and Franklin medal for excellency in American history. Because of the conservation of metal, a certificate, as equally important as the medal, was awarded to Carlo Tabellario. The other honor students re- ceiving history hooks were Ethel Hoelzel and David Young. The scrap-metal drives began at the close of our junior year. Silk stock- ings, keys, books and Bed Cross articles were also collected in each of the home-rooms. The Collection drives were assuredly and patriotically sue- cessful. Before we realized it our junior year came quickly to a close. We were Seniors-Seniors who were now seriously striving for higher goals, aims and ambitions. We resolved to improve and advance the capacity of know- ledge that we already had received in our sophomore and junior years. With this challenge before us, we entertained the sophomore class at a re- ception held at the Central School hall. A grand march, led by the senior and sophomore class officers was featured during the evening. Music for dancing was furnished by Al Michael and his orchestra. Our next social event, the Senior Play, was successfully presented in De- cember at the Central School hall. Young Barry was directed by Miss Alice Littlejohn, while John Barry, the leading man received top honors for his remarkable performance. Meanwhile the senior girls had been aiding the local Red Cross Chapter hy making surgical sponges and bandages at the Nevins Home. Our school had been practicing air-raid drills, and as a result, we managed to learn to clear the building in two minutes. Despite the shortage of gasoline and tires, we held the Senior Party, ad- vocating the use of Hshankis mare for transportation. As the dance was in the form of a Campus Party, we wore our flashiest sport clothes. Betty Jane Cnosson was chosen Campus Queen: music for dancing wa s provided by Russ Matheson. After this enjoyable event, we realized that the days until graduation were numbered, and we launched our magazine drive, which proved to be more 51 I-Inw.-inn F. Sizaicuzs Hlcn Stznoor 1943 successful than any other year, thus cutting down the price of our Year Book. Nlarch brought the 37th .-Xnnual Military Ball. Major Alphonse Pankau- ski and Henrietta Busta led the spectacular grand march. Company A, under Colby Wetmore, won the drill competition. The colorful formal gowns and the blue military uniforms were quickly combined on the dance- floor when Roland Russell began his sophisticated rhythmns. :Xt this time many of our classmates who were planning to attend college acquired their diplomas earlier, and left their senior year to begin the early college semesters. Others took the Army and Navy tests, and enlisted prior to their graduation. We also began our War Stamp and Bond drive, and in our first week raised approximately 35950.00 for victory. The walls of our school were covered with posters urging us to buy, and buy again. We patriotically and generously responded. As our senior days were drawing to a close, it came time to elect a repre- sentative for the Daughters of the American Revolution Convention held an- nually in Boston. Ruth Dean, our class secretary for the past four years, was chosen for her good citizenship. Our last social event, the Senior Prom, was held in the Central School hall. This semi-formal affair will constantly lingerlin our memories in the days to come. Now we have reached the end of our quest. We must leave behind this beautiful ivy-covered edihce, and its pleasant memories, and face the world alone. We cannot foretell the uncertain future. ln a world at war, we shall march onward and upward until we have attained peace, success, and happiness. -Ruth White 52 1 , y Q 1 -. -1 yy, y y y ygwmigo F.

Helen Nlelnicki and Helen Panazuk are secretaries, while Barbara Bleakley and ,losephine Bistany work as bookkeepers. Ray: Yes, so I heard. By the way, where are you going? Ruth: Oh, I'm on my way to see Beano Rogers at the hospital. They tell me hels swallowed too many of George Coxls vitamin pills. Ray: What a coincidence! I'm going there, too. Dr. Dave Young told me Beano was pretty sick. Shall we go? SCENE 2 Ruth: Why, thereis Ethel Hoelzel at the desk. She and Barbara John, son are the head nurses. Ray: Beanols been telling me that Virginia Burke and Peg lVloynihan keep the pulses high with the male patients, and Ruth Bernard, Eleanor I.odge, and Barrels Fox have the doctors wondering what the world is coming to. Ruth: So live heard, but they're not the only ones that wear the white caps. 'Mary Norcia, Clara Haddad, and Shirley I,owell work in near-by hospitals. Youlll never guess who else has turned to nursing: none other than Edith Celt and Ruthie Chadwick. Ray: Here's a list of the Staff: look, .ludy Hill is the dietieian and Carlo Tabellario, the head chemist. He has some good assistants, too.

Beano sure can pick them. Ruth: l'm glad to be away from that stuffy place. I'd much rather be out here with Bob lfaton and his gorgeous garden. Ray: Notice shy John Scannell going in the service entrance. He's still carrying on the milk business, and isn't that Eddie Delfrates leaving with an empty egg basket? Ruth: lt looks like him. There's the new housing project we've heard so much about. The constructors, Bistany and Harris, have Julius Hmiel- owski, Harleem Hajjar, and John Lenotte as foremen. Virginia Linton, Clenis Allatt, Mary Arzoorian, and Bose ,Ann Yaghmoorian try to keep them out of debt and a few feet away from Bill Fleming, the sheriff. SCENE 3 Ray: Let's walk down town. Here's Melvin Clamp and Irving Sweeneyls Dress Shop. Whom do you think they have working as models?- Gloria Brothers, Doreen Gagnon, Alice Ramskill, and Phyl McGuire! Ruth: Yes, and Billie Harnisch, Joan Joyce, Betty Beek and Barbara Blouin design the unusual creations. Ray: l hear that Agnes Zieba and Freda lssenberg are responsible for the artistic displays, which draw such crowds to the windows. Patty Pat- naude, Pop Jackson and Audrey Guthrie do the merchandising. ' Ruth: lsn't it remarkable that such a store should have so many of our classmates working in it? Ray: Yes- Margaret Murphy designs all of their ads that appear in the nation-wide magazine, published by Charlotte DeArville and Fernande Lavigne. Speaking of ads, look at that one over there, advertising Frank Zachariasl and Clayton Ritter's restaurant. Virginia Abbottls All-Cirl Un- chestra plays for them. 54 1943 N yy g y , EKDWQRIJ F.

Ruth: Speaking of waitresses, whom have Frank Adamson and Wliitriey' Hagar employed in their night-club? Ray: Frank told me that Ernestine Cowan, Muriel Poulin, and Alice Breton work there, with glamorous Teresa King as head waitress to draw the crowds. Ruth: Sylvia Rushforth is the hostess, and l've seen Flo-Dixie Hartung and her guitar advertized as being the guest performer. Ray: Arlene Annalaro, Beatrice Budron, and Shirley Phair keep the club's accounts straight. Claire Abercrombie and Bob Hambleton. along with Dot Chivall and her one and only, are steady customers.

Ruth: Lucky for us! - Look, Dorothy Keighley is Editor in chief. She has certainly been successful. Ray: I'll say, and two others that have been are Alphonse Pankauski and Walter Tuminowski. They have both followed the military line and are now generals. Ruth: Gosh, l didn't know that! Bernice ,lackson and Roberta Turner 55 Iiowaito F.

Huy: lt says here that Fred Brainerd and Howie tlrowther are pilots for a Transcontinental Company. Ruth: Did you see this write-up of Boogie Lambert, Peter DeFelice, and Tommie Chadwick playing in Boogie's Swing Band? Say, look at this piece about Dick liavgiala. lt seems that heis still up to his same old tricks. He thinks Australia is South Africa, l guess, because he's been con- victed of bigamy with two Australian debs. Huy: How our friends do come along! l.et's turn to the sport page. Larry Kershaw usually has some good articles. Here's something about Roger jones. F1 D Ruth: Oh yes, he, Donald Mack, Ralli 'llakesian and John Kenyon are playing baseball in the Big League now. Ray: Speaking of ball-players, :Xnnie Peate has organized a softball team with Lillian Farley, Minnie Tsakle, Lillian Kudronwcy, and Venira Scandura. Ruth: Thereis an article on Francis Rooney in this corner. I didn't know he was a high-jumper, did you? Ray: Yes, and Howard Dyke is making a name for himself as a runner. Ruth: Now let's turn to the Society page. I never miss Libby Schubert and Arlene Barden's column. I see Elsie Arnold, Barbara Steele and Esther McClintock are on the list of Happy-Weds. Ray: Here's an article advertising Carl DeLucia's Sweetheart Chicken Farm, and another one advertising Pauline Bulger's '6Petit Pet Plcef, Ruth: Oh, I've been there, she has Dot Weinliold and Evelyn Haddad helping her. Lillian I-Iabeeh does the Bookkeeping. Itas just the place to take a sick lizard. And did you notice these poems by Phyllis Houghton and Fred Nutton? By the way, Ruth Dean is head librarian at Nevins. Ray: I saw her a few days ago. She said that Norma Macfarlane and Lilly Russell teach in the high school. Lucille Cordeau teaches French, and Grace Langille tries to teach the new generation how not to be like their parents. Ruth: That reminds me of the secretarial school run by Marion Worthy and Helen Wilson. Several ofthe girls we knew at high school are in- structors. Among them are Arlene Morrison, Dot Wentzel, and Dot Black. Ray: Yes, and I think Lorraine Bistany and Gladys Hadiield are sec- retaries in the school. 56 1943 EDWARD F.

Si-:.uu.i-Qs llitpu Stjlltltll. 1943 .9u.g, 0fLC1fl:0-FL li are assembled here to plant the symbolic ivy. Today, the planting RQSZSS ol the ivy vine 15 not simply a class ll'-i1tllllUIl,' it 'IS' the hope of this class for a better world after the conflict. lt is fitting at this time to make a comparison between the ivy and our democracy. The ivy vine has been very carefully nurtured until the time when it is ready to stand alone. liven though it is supposedly capable of sustaining itself, it still must be protected long enough to allow the plant to become accustomed to its new environment. :Xfter the short breaking ini, period is over, the ivy will flourish. Ten- drils will shoot out from the vine and attach themselves securely to any lodging in the stone wall. As new vines appear, new tendrils will spring forth to grasp a projection or foothold. Neither tendril is able to hold the vines, but many tendrils, each doing its share, will support the vine under adverse conditions. As the years go by, the vines will cover more and more of the surface. Then the day will come when the ivy has covered the entire wall. The luxurious growth of ivy will add dignity to the wall, and will serve as an inspiration to future students. Even as the small ivy was nurtured, so must democracy be carefully cared for. Basic principles of democracy may be inculcated in the mind of a small child. Through the years when the child is growing, the principles must be kept alive continually,- not intermittently. After these primary steps are accomplished, the child will think in terms of democratic tenets. Soon the child may take these tenets for granted. Now it must be remembered that for these same fundamental truths, men, women, and children are dying by violence, hunger, and degradation. All this slaughter can be traced back to the carrying out of one of the most diabolical machinations ever conceived by a mind consumed with fever, threaded by tortuous channels and hlled with a desire for cruelty. One of the smallest integral parts of democracy, the home, acts as the tendril for a vine. The whole network of a democratic government is held to the country by the many homes making up the nations. As a nation ex- 58 19423 p ppp ppp EDWAHQ l'i.VSEftRl,I-15 their SCHOOL pands, the homes spring forth on the new land. Acting as the tendrils, the homes again spread democracy over the land. Thus it may be seen that democracy will spread,- not necessarily by conquest,- from one country to another. Perhaps, after this terrible war is won, the vines of democracy will spread over continents and oceans, until, like the ivy covering the wall, the whole world is covered beneath the pro- tective and beneficial network. From this comparison, let us hope that we may further the propagation of democratic ideals to every nation after the brutal, tyrannical enemies of mankind are exterminated. -Carlo Tabellario 59 Iiowxico F.
