Spaulding A job well-done Sheffield High School has served the Town of Sheffield for more than four decades. With each additional growing need, provision for more promising facilities for better educational facilities was made possible by the townspeople. With greater enthusiasm, Sheffield public opinion aroused to the point of action has favor- ably voted to join four of its neighbors (Alford, Egremont, Mont- erey, New Marlborough) in a new educational enterprise. Climaxing a year ' s work by the Southern Berkshire Regional School District Planning board, New England will have its first regional school embracing all the elementary and secondary grades . nOHHHH Contents Aerial Photograph of Sheffield High School 1 Table of Contents 2 Dedication - Mr. Howard V.

HENNIGAR AND IN THIS CORNER My task accomplished and the long day done. . . . It is with sincere esteem that we acknowledge the patient un- derstanding and helpful advice of Mr. Howard Hennigar, our beloved principal and advisor. Under his guiding hand we have come to the end of our Senior year feeling a confidence necessary to cope with the exper- iences which are to come. OH. ' THAT ' S EASY. AMUSING DECISIONS AND YOU There is a need in our world today for more people who are capable of making sound decisions — decisions based on facts and principles decisions based collectively on the attitude of: What is best for my town, my country, the world? ; not solely on the philosophy of: What is best for me and my own interests? On the local and community levels, Sheffield and four neighboring towns have reached a decision by ballot that a regional school district shall be formed „ Before the objectives of this new undertaking are reached, a thousand and one decisions must be made. There is an oppor- tunity for everyone of us to help make these decisions through exercis- ing our right to vote, by discussing the major issues involved, and by expressing our well thought out opinions. Ultimately the decisions of the people determine our national and international policies. What decisions have you reached relative to the Hoover Report, or the conflict now raging in Korea? What can we do about the excessive non-military expeditures of the Federal Govern- ment? Should our country aid with both men and materials in the unification of the armed forces of Western Europe? Never before have our responsibilities as individuals and a nation been so great or our wise judgements been so necessary. After sound decisions have been made, we must have the will and desire to see that these decisions are carried out. We must be willing to do our part — share the responsibility and the hard work. Yes, even the blood and the suffering. Howard V. Hennigar Principal $£ ««?--•? • , TEACHERS AND SCHOOL PERSONNEL BACK ROW: Mr, Barrett, Mr Williams, Mrs. J. Armstrong, Mr .

The time has arrived which we have eagerly anticipated for many years. Just as we awaited our report cards, experienced the worry before a basket- ball game, the preceding uneasiness of taking part in the Senior play, the enjoyment of the school picnic, or the excitement of the Junior-Senior Prom, so we have looked forward to this milestone in our lives Graduation. Now the long journey is almost over. In a few minutes, upon receiving our diplomas, graduation will have become a realization. This day has deep significance to all of us here upon this platform. We have reached an important point in our lives. The time has come when we must step out alone, from the shelter of home and school; and each, to the best of his ability, must be prepared to accept a share of the respon- sibility which is the heritage of all members of our society. Since childhood our parents have protected us from the fears of an un- known world; then, as we took our first step into society, we were still sheltered. Even from our first days at school our interests and attitudes have been molded by the kind guidance of our teachers. As we advanced to higher levels and our horizons broadened, our opinions were still greatly influenced by our schoolmates and teachers. In any year, it is a serious matter to sever the ties of childhood and take a place, no matter how unimportant it may be, in a mature world. In this year of 1951, however, when our country is facing grave danger from without and within, and when our very way of life is threatened, we, to- gether with all other young people graduating from high schools throughout the land, must be willing to stand beside the men and women who are working to preserve our country and all that it stands for. Today, more than ever, the world crisis demands that each of us must try to combat such things as communism, racial discrimination, and religious prejudices and strive to the utmost to uphold such great units of democracy as the United States and the United Nations. The turmoil of our country at this particular time is realized by students entering the adult world. We keenly recognize the fact that what happens in the future will be reflected upon us. It is difficult at any time for a graduate to enter society and choose his life-time career; especially is this perplexing to us tonight, with the world in its present state of uncertainty. We are fortunate to have had our years in school at Sheffield. We feel we are as well-prepared as any student to face whatever may be ahead. We have been prepared by what we have learned in the classrooms, by the skill- ful guidance and training we have received from our teachers, and by the pleasant association with our fellow pupils. This preparation has fitted us with the necessary foundations for getting along with those whom we may come in contact in the future. From our anticipations of tonight will come those greater expectations of the future. We will continue to appreciate the values we have received here at Sheffield High School. In behalf of my fellow classmates I again bid you a most sincere wel- come . 15 VALEDICTORY ADDRESS Parents, members of the faculty, ladies and gentlemen: Tonight, we, the class of 1951, will say farewell to Sheffield High School and go out into the world on our own. No longer will we have our teachers and parents to guide us. From now on we shall make our own decisions. We shall have to decide for ourselves what kind of work we will do and how we will do it. Will we pitch in and work energetically or will we take life easy? Today, in America, there seems to be too many people who take life easy. They try to spend as little time as possible on their jobs. Some don ' t bother to have a job at all. These are the people who stay at home and live on the unemployment insurance provided for them by the others who work for a living. We see men today during time of crisis who go out on strike for better wages and shorter working hours. Many farmers are being reimbursed by the govern- ment if they don ' t earn enough from their main crops. Maybe these people feel they have a right for this extra income, but they are actually losing out. You can ' t get something for nothing, and this includes this business of getting wages for no work. If this keeps up, our country will shortly be bankrupt and the government overrun by Socialists and Communists. We should also learn from history that when the people of a country think more about amusing themselves than working, the nation will become very weak and easily conquered by its enemies. An outstanding example of this was the Roman Empire. In the early days of the Empire the people were energetic and willing to work and Rome became the center of the civilized world. However after she had attained this position, the people grew lazy and thought only of amusing themselves. Soon her government became corrupt and was run by dictators. Finally Rome fell before the weaker German tribes from the North. We should keep in mind that today we Americans are the envy of the rest of the world. We have the most freedom and are the best off economically of any nation on Earth. It should be remembered, however that our forefathers had to fight, toil, and labor unceasingly before they raised our country to its present glory. As we leave here tonight let me again remind you that what we do from now on will by by our own decisions. Let us decide that whatever we do, whether we are in the Armed Forces or stay at home, we will work to keep America what it is today. We will pitch into our jobs wholeheartedly. We will take part in our government and express our opinions and beliefs on how to improve it. We will pay our taxes cheerfully even though it means going without some of the things we would like to have. If we can do these things, we will be able to keep America a fortress for freedom and liberty which no enemy can crush. 16 ait jfl CLASS NIGHT PROGRAM Address of Welcome .......... Lord ' s Prayer J.

To over stress anything makes it sound as though it came out of a book. You all know we welcome you to our class night ex- ercises very warmly. We want you to feel that you are a respons- ible part of this program and will exercise that responsibility by frequently applauding and giving the necessary responses demanded of an audience such as you. I hope that we, as a class, and as individuals, have made an everlasting impression on you and S. H. S. May the remainder of the evening reflect whole-heartedly a class night program prepared for your full enjoyment. 17 ±M The Class History of the Class of ' 51 In September of 1947, twenty-five rookies were commissioned to a four year conquest of Operation Education. After eight years of basic train- ing at various Grammar Air Bases the complement of our Company consisted of the following boys, who held such positions as pilots, co-pilots, navi- gators, radio and radar men, flight engineers, combat men: Privates First Class John Whalen, Austin Somes, Barker Buckingham, Ransler Bartholomew, Eugene Kirchner, John Bachetti, Robert Smith, Robert Curtiss, William Banks, Donald Crandall, These men were competently assisted by an additional fifteen which made up the remaining complement of our group. They were PFC ' S: Helen Pixley, Claire Pezzatti, Caroline Golden, i.udrey Agar, Minnie Johnson, Ilamay Petersen, Rose Zamperini, Jenny Johnson, Anna Pezze , Charlotte Eichstedt, Mary Zucco, Joan Samuels, Rosemary Crandall, Phyllis Maynard, Jacqueline Buscher and Betty Cartinelli. Our training officers were Commander William Hartley and Captains: Mary Larkin. Mrs. Hazel Leaf green, Mrs. Gladys Roraback, Mr. Theodore Williams, and Mr. Bruce Martin, who was later capably replaced by Captain John McCann, Our instructions for our first combat were to overtake Freshman Island, previously occupied by the class of 1950. Soon after the first maneuvers had commenced several members of our group left, namely: Phyllis Maynard, William Banks, Joan Samuels, Rosemary and Donald Crandall, and Jacqueline Buscher. After 10 months of battling various hardships such as dances, magazine campaigns, contests and the usual winter hazards faced on all battlefields, our aims were accomplished. It was here, at the completion of our first year, that we felt deeply the loss of Betty Cartinelli. At this time, our Commanding officer, Howard Hennigar, replaced Commander William Hartley, and then allowed the group a two and a half month furlough. Captain Miss Rita Hannigan and Captain Richard Mather were to replace Captains Larkin and McCann during the next campaign also. After our passes had expired, we again boarded our plane called. The Class of 1951 , and took off for Sophomore Isle, phase No. 2 of Operation Education, in the center of Scholastic Ocean. Here we picked up a transfer from another company by the name of Tom Bartlett. who proved his abilities in several emergencies - Our growing experience won us this battle easily Casualties were few, but two in our command, Helen Pixley and Eugene Kirchner were transferred to other fronts . Soon after another short furlough, the result of battle fatigue, we once again clambered aboard our faithful plane with a few new training officers, namely: Captain Nicholas Morace who replaced Captain Leaf green . and Captain Lawrence Healey, who took over the positon left vacated by Captain Mather. We headed for Junior Naval Airbase. and there fought our hardest battle It was in this battle that we lost Sergeants Caroline Golien, Minnie Johnson and Charlotte Eichstedt, who were shipped home to domestic fronts However, we picked up another able man, Sergeant Jack Rosier, fresh from the outside world and full of experience in civilian life. 18 After gathering our implements, weapons and personal belongings, we headed for the states for another rest and vacation. We really needed this furlough as we knew that the fourth battle was to be rougher than any experienced in the past. With the confidence of past victories, we eagerly awaited our voyage to Senior , the last phase of our conquest to be fought in a country called Success. Under the able hand of Commander Hennigar and his able staff of well known men, we were shipped another new officer, Captain Ann Provencher who replaced one of our standby ' s, Captain Hannigan. Finally, after ten months of battle, fun, and knowledge, we all gathered at Graduation Field, where we were to receive our Honorable Discharges. We were now 17 Lieutenants in number: John Bachetti, Scoopy Whalen, Tom Bartlett, Jack Rosier, Ranny Bartholomew, Austin Somes, Bobby Smith, Bob Curtiss, Barker Buckingham, Mary Zucco, Rose Zamperini, Joyce Funk, Claire Pezzatti, Jenny Johnson, Audrey Agar, Anna Pezze, and Ilaraay Petersen. After receiving our discharges and congratulations, we felt proud of the techniques used in all our four battles, but we also felt sorry that this particular mission for us was over. Yes, ' Another war and another victory wjuld be recorded in the Annals of History, of a battle against hardships, temptations, and obstacles overcome and won by the class of 1951 — Operation Education, successful. 9 ELIZABETH LEONA CARTINELLI Tom Bartlett Jack Rosier In Memonam She ' s received her crown of faithfulness, Now up there in HIS world of bliss. Her sparkling eyes of a brilliant blue, Her golden hair of a sparkling hue. It was her among us who did lay, Her own soft beauty in the searching ray So just for her we reserve this space. GOD BLESS you BETTY in your resting place 19 ■ Preamble Class Will We, being und tution of learni and testament. I highest institut mind to make our following items loose what littl remaining so cal upon we take lea oubtedly the most ng, do here-by dec t must be remember ion of lower learn selves clearly und to be in an incohe e sanity we have 1 led students popul ve of mind and do insane class ever to leave this insti- lare this classical work our last will ed that we, being graduated from the ing, in all probability not in the right erstood; and, therefore, prescribe the rent-a-state as possible, and before we eft, may we express our regrets for the arly referred to as inmates, where- declare this our last will and testament SECTION 1 Article 1 To the faculty, we will and bequeath an uninterruped five- minute recess for the purpose of enjoying a bit of quietude in an effort to regain their sanity after three periods of nerve shattering classes. To them, we also leave a hypnotist so that they may be left under a spell strong enough to cope with some of the more boisterous class friends. Article 2 To our favorite hideway, the lunchroom, we give an automatic robot to dish out the noon meals, keeping the slightly crazed inmates in line, and very accurately reporting the number of pupils purchasing dinners, and thus alleviating our very dear Mrs, Moesley and Mrs, Smith from a daily tortuous routine. Article 3 To Mr. Cane we bequeath an escalator to assist him in his lab orious travels from the lower elevations to the most pinnacled heights. It is our hope, that whatever encourages science to further research will discover future implements that will help our custodian beyond his wildest dreams , Article 4 To our notable inmates otherwise known as the class of 1954 we generously advance to them the merriment of future carnivals which no sane group could possibly accept unless their minds were beginning to de- teriorate sooner than we had anticipated. Nevertheless they may well be labeled as the future ring-masters of each successive carnival and dance in which all merrimakers should find cause for laughter with the prear- ranged amusements and entertainments which the talents of no other group could produce or arrange. Article 5,.,,. To Sheffield High we most sincerely pass on our proud pos- session of school spirit which we have not neglected in any way thus far. To you we not only pass on a loyalty to Sheffi3ld ' s Orange and Black, but,, also, a true respect of the faculty; adminstration , and friends of Sheffield our Alma Mater. May the members still in the realm of sanity spread and broadcast this proud possession of school spirit which we have possessed. We, incidentally, bequeath the following as a necessary part of our last desire: SECTION II Article 1 Mary wills her love for Texas (and a certain fellow) to any other female of this institution who may in the future be in the same predicament. 20 ■HVH Article 2 John Whalen gives his mad passion to drive at no speed less than 85 miles an hour to Dick Boardman. Article 3. ... .Robert Curtiss graciously consents to hide his becoming quietness to some excessively noisy creature and forever thereafter silence him. Article 4. ... .Audrey Agar wills and bequeaths the right to be furiously mad at the faculty on report card days to any group or clique who may have nerve enough to complain about it. Article 5..... Joyce Funk wills and bequeaths her natural ability to be dismissed from classes to anyone who can develop this golden rule. Article 6. . . . .Jenny Johnson wills and bequeaths her poetic ability to Joyce Buckingham. Article 7..... Anna Pezze generously extends her speed-of -light basketball qualities to Leslie Gibbs. Article 8. . . . .Robert Smith bestows his friendly and helpful nature to Jimmie Welch. Article 9..... Rose Zamperini wills and bequeaths her Betty Grable attributes to the future Sheffield Queens. Article 10... ..Jack Rosier wills and bequeaths his life, liberty and pursuit of women goals to Roger Charbonneau. Article 11. . . . .Ranny Bartholomew wills the time before the 8:45 bell, recess, noon hour, and 8th period bells to Wesley Petersen so that he may visit his future feminine admirers. Article 12. ... .Austin Somes wills and bequeaths his title of class genius to Ann Hurlburt. Article 13. . . . . John Bachetti gives his outstanding ability to collect five fouls all in one period to Francis Zucco. Article 14. ... .Barker Buckingham wills his love for chickens to Donnie Percy, (chick spelled g-i-r-1-s.) Article 15. ... .Claire Pezzatti wills and bequeaths her shorthand and typing ability to Marie Rueger. Article 16. . . . . Ilamay Petersen wills and bequeaths her ability as guard of the basketball team to Barbara Rice. Article 17. . . . .Tom Bartlett leaves his extraordinary ability to close class meetings to Frank Bachetti. And at long last having no semblance of sanity left and being in desperate state of collapse, physically and mentally, we do hereby appoint and constitute the afore-mentioned principals, executors of this, our last will and testament. Signed this 15th day of June in the year of our Lord, one thousand nine hundred and fifty one. ........ .class of 1951. 21 Prophecy Time — Clase of School day, fall 1961.

Anna: Yes, and getting back to the U.S. after my recent tour of duty through China and more recently Rome, certainly makes my return visit to Sheffield and to this new school more than pleasant. Ilamay: Oh! You don ' t know the half of it. Living here in Sheffield may not sound exciting, but following the activities of our class certainly is far from dull. In fact, I ' m sure you would be interested in hearing some of the typical scandal that makes good Sheffield gossip anytime. But before I tell you about that I ' ve got something I ' d like to show you, Our gym — Anna, you ' ll be amazed — It ' s right in here. Anna: Gosh, look at the immenseness of it. Just think how much this would have meant to us! My point score for the season would have gone up 50 or 60 more points if we had the privilege of practicing in a gym like this. Ilamay: With our new gym we are able to play all our home games here. Our athletic program is such that both boys and girls participate. In fact, this year our regional team took the New England Interregional Championship. You remember Tom Bartlett don ' t you? His lifelong wish finally came true. Anna: Did he join the Marines? Ilamay: Yes, and he ' s made first lieutenant from the ranks. On his last visit to Sheffield he honored us by talking to the boys here about the importance of athletic and physical development in school. Not only were the boys impressed but so was he impressed by the military training our boys get here in high school. Anna: Interesting! Sometime Tom will pick a wife and settle down around here in Sheffield too, when he has time to think about it. Ilamay: I don ' t know. It seems thus far his first love is the Marines. Speaking of life in Sheffield, did you know Barker Buckingham has set up quite a poultry • business? Anna: I suppose you have an agricultural course which gives training in poultry raising too. Ilamay: Oh! Yes, in fact most of our boys do very well at the University of Massachusetts when they graduate from Sheffield. Anna: Speaking of success, Ilamay, I know one kid who got to the top. 22 Ilamay: Why who, Anna? Anna: Our old pal Audrey Agar, a first lieutenant in the Wac ' s. She joined the same time I did, but we were separated during basic training, when I got an appointment as private secretary to the Commanding Officer at Westover Field. Ilamay: Top brass, huh? I haven ' t seen Audrey since she left. Anna: I hear from her regularly, but we have never been stationed together. Ilamay: Quite a few of our classmates have been in the service. Anna: Yes, Scoopy went into the army right after graduation and he is in the mechanized Cavalry. He can drive just as hard and as fast as he cares to without having to worry about scratching the paint on the new Patton tank. He was just given an Oak Leaf Cluster for outstanding courage. Ilamay: Yes, so I heard, he ' ll probably have his own garage right here in Sheffield some day. He would certainly enjoy the auto shop we have here now. I must show you that later. Anna: Have you heard from my cousin, Mary Zucco, lately? ' Ilamay: Yes, but she isn ' t a Zucco anymore. She married right after graduation and then became a nurse. Anna: She is living in Norfork now, but she comes to visit my parents frequently. Ilamay: Well, I know she is happy because she always wanted to be a nurse and had always hoped that if they ever built a high school it would have a curriculum for nurses, and of course we do have one now. Before we leave this floor we should visit the science laboratory — in here. Anna: Austin Somes would have loved the opportunity to experiment with that new up-to-date equipment. I have a newspaper clipping telling about the experiments of a famous engineer in Canada — none other than our Auste . Ilamay: You probably will be tired after walking around this expansive area. Let ' s step into the teachers ' room to have a cigarette. Anna: Yes, I am very anxious to hear more about John Bachetti since he became Editor of the Berkshire Eagle. Ilamay: He ' s become twice as popular since his paper turned the tide in the last city election. Anna: Yes, I ' ve heard so. I ' m sorry I couldn ' t get home for your wedding for I was stationed in Gay Paree when the announcement came. Ilamay: Speaking of marriage, did you know that your old flame Ranny Bartholomew is president of the bank in Canaan and was recently married to a Conover model from New York? 23 ■ ■ Anna: Numbers and figures always appealed to him, ' Have you heard from Jenny Johnson lately? Just what did she do after graduation? Ilamay: Oh! She is living in Virginia now. She ' s a famous magazine artist for Glamour. Anna: Remember how she used to sketch us in class? In her last letter she told me that she was drawing caricatures of all the members of our class which she intends to mail us soon now. Most of the members in the class have very prominent features! Ilamay: That would be rather ludicrous. But say, let me show you the Home Economics department we ' ve got , When girls leave here, they certainly can go into housekeeping knowing what side of the skillet to hold their hand on. Rose Zamperini, you must have heard, is married and owns her own beauty parlor--keeps her busy from morning to night — how she would have benefitted by this department, although she could bake a good cake aaytime Anna: Yes, I should think so. After I arrived home, one of my first stops was to visit Rose, She invited me to a free hair do . Oh boy, when I return to camp I can knock them all dead with a new look, Ilamay: Speaking of new looks, did you notice the new lumber company in town? Anna: Oh yes, Smith Brothers, Has that just been built? It wouldn ' t be owned by our old friend Smitty would it? Ilamay: Yes, Bob took up carpenter training when he left here, and now he and Frank own their own business. Anna: I noticed as we walked through the corridor that we just passed the woodworking shop for boys. That certainly is beneficial to the boys that plan to go into that line of work when they graduate, Ilamay: Gee, there is so much to show you I ' m afraid we are going to have to leave some things out. But before we leave I must show you the new Typing lab, Claire Pezzatti thought a lot of it when she visited us last-- same old kid, Anna: Oh really, what is Claire doing now that she became the secretary she always wanted to be? Ilamay: Right now she is a private Secretary to the President of G. Foxes. She probably will be an executive there one of these days. Anna: If she was in the army, she would be a General with the ability that she has. Speaking of the army, guess who I met where I am stationed-- Robert Curtiss. Ilamay: Bob! I thought you wouldn ' t be lonesome, What is he doing down there? Anna: He joined the Air Force right after graduation and became a radio man. As a radio operator, he uses his typing ability constantly, Ilamay: A flying radio man! That must be exciting--Anna , through that east window--you can see Joyce Funk ' s new home. 24 Anna: I suppose you knew before I , that Joyce married right after graduation to her old time sweetheart. Ilamay: Joyce was ready to settle down while we were still in school. She is very happy and is convinced that her choosen career is the best Anna: Speaking of settling down, Jack Rosier has quite a thriving enterprise. He is the president, treasurer, and secretary of %he International Lonely Heart ' s Club; and not as most people expected, re- presentative to Congress. Ilamay: That tops all-=goodness — I guess I had better be getting home — supper to prepare. But I enjoyed showing you our new school. Anna: I am amazed at our new school — what changes a few years have brought. It is wonderful to know our future youth will get the best in education. A SENIOR ' S FAREWELL Four happy years have drawn to a close. Our work has just begun. But from the foundation of its training, Steps the class of ' 51. In leaving our teachers and our friends, We hope for but one condition, We sinceTely hope that for years to come, They ' ll fulfill the Sheffield tradition. There ' ve been hardships and struggles for us to bear, We ' ve each had a share of our own. But the friendships developed And the good times had, are the best that we ' ve ever known . And now, as we come to these closing hours, With memories and tears as well, We bid goodbye to the school we have loved. Classmates and teachers — Farewell! 25 v.,.

The aajor work of the Student Council this year was the drafting of a Constitution, giving future student representatives a foundation of student Government which they in previous years did not have. The following are the objectives of the student government so adopted: 1. To provide a representative body for S.H.S. 2. To take charge of all student activities outside of classes. 3. To make recommendations to the principal, teachers, and the School Committee for the betterment of S.H.S. 4. To voice the opinions and sentiments of the student body of S.H.S. However, the Student Council has not spent all of its time in drawing up this constitution. It has not only taken care of the everyday problems that arise, but also activities such as the Freshman Reception, Xmas party, School picnic, and the suggestion box from which has come many constructive suggestions. Through the efforts of its officers and the capable direction of Principal Hennigar, the Student Council has made for the student body a successful year. 38 BACK BOW: FRONT ROW Director, Mr. Williams, Ranny Bartholc Rosier, Tom Bartlett, Barker Buckioghi Wbalen, Austin Somes.

SENIOR CLASS PLAT The Senior Class this year will present as their Senior Play Here Comes Charlie written by Jay Tobias. This side-splitting Farce Comedy in three-acts deals with the hilarious situations Larry Elliot gets into when his ward, Charlie Hopps arrives from the Ozark Mountains. The situation is furthur complicated when it is discovered that Charlie is not a boy, but rather a hill-billy girl. Charlie creates one mirthful situation after another as she attempts to climb the ladder into high-class society. The whole performance left everyone swimming in laughter.

BOYS ' BASKETBALL Highlighting some of the events of the 1950-51 basketball season, we find that due to the loss of several players in 50 the team found itself short of height and experience. Also it is seen that when playing against teams of their own caliber, the ledger is swung greatly toward the asset side. The exhibition schedule wound up. favorably for the Gamecocks with a 6-3 record . . . Playing such teams as Amenia, N.Y. (W-O-L-2) , Berkshire School J.Vs (W-2-L-0) , Berkshire Industrial Farm (W-I-L-I), New Marlboro (W-2-L-0) , and the Alumni contest (won 32-28). The Black and Orange scored (389 points) against (352 points) for the opposition. In League Competition the team fared badly as it lost all of its League encounters. However, it must be remembered that the opposition here was, by far, stronger than the exhibiton schedule. Against Searles the team was humbled twice (80-20) (79-48). Lenox, pinned 2 defeats on the Healeymen (60-39) (70-48). Chester took the toll of the Gamecocks (89-52) (71-50). Lee, with its baffling zone took 2 more (70-38) ( ). Williams, another team to defeat Sheffield, did it by scores of (60-39) (84-60). Although stuck with an unimpressive record the team was far from dissapointing, Scrappy, willipg, game to the last, the team exhibited great sportsmanship by never giving up. The team will, this year lose, through graduation, 6 players.

GIRLS ' BASKETBALL Weakened by the loss of several of its most capable performers In 1950, the girls ' team nevertheless, turned in a successful season with a 4-won 8-lost re- cord. The team, once again under the guiding hand of Mrs. Norma Faivre, lacked the necessary elements of a winning combination, height and experience. Reviewing the games played, the scores show a majority of them were lost by not more than eight points. Playing their end of a 45-33 c took the measure 43-32 and 55-45. another team to encounter of the the next to pin the return bout, Dalton a new add team 28-20. first game of the season against Searles, the team wound up on the ount. In the second encounter between the two teams Searles again of the team 37-32. The maidens ticketed Williams for two defeats Lee eked out two close victories 50-45 and 47-39. Chester was barely squeeze by the maidens 37-35 and 47-27. In the lone season the girls defeated the Alumni team 29-26. Mill River was a defeat on the girls in what was called an upset 13-12. But in Sheffield took the measure of the Mill River maidens 31-20. ition to the schedule this year pinned one defeat on our girls ' Next year the maidens will lose through graduation three of its stardom-bound players, Ilamay Petersen, Rose Zamperini, and Anna Pezze; also, its most efficient manager, Mary Zucco. 47 .-.« ■ ' ' r- £ ; P ' S % • .
