A . x Y? We, the tired, weary, but still kicking Seniors, now disclose our class history. This is an unvarnished account of our four year strug- gle at Shrewsbury High. These years are the so-called best years of our lives. September, I947, found a bewildered group of some fifty-four freshmen entering the famed halls of Major Howard Beal High School. This was the famous class of '5l. We had no sooner adjusted ourselves to the routine of every- day schooling when we found ourselves voting for our fellow-students. The returns of this election showed that Paul Clark had been elected president, Alan Daniels vice-president, Cy Farnsworth secretary, and Bingie Zuromskis treasurer. Barbara Putnam, Bill Linton, and Bob Englund were elected to the Student Council. Came September, 1948, and we returned to good old Beal where we were joined by quite a few newcomers from Coolidge. The member- ship of our class had now reached a total of eighty. As wise sophomores, under the guidance of Miss Gucciardi and Mr. Lalli, we started the year right by re-electing Paul Clark to the presi- dency. Mike Rigiero was elected vice-president, Ann Seugin secretary, and Bobbie Loomer treasurer. Our ambitious representatives to the Student Council were Phyllis Milde, Irene Southworth, Gail Riley, and Jean Dube. During our Sophomore year we put on only two dances. September again rolled around and we, the Juniors, under the capable guidance of Miss Gucciardi and Mr. Jacobs began a very busy year. We started right in by electing officers. Mike Rigiero became our president, Marilyn Sencabaugh secretary, Carl Liljestrand vice- president, and Bobbie Loomer treasurer. Our Student Council representatives were Barbara Putnam, Bingie Zuromskis, Theresa Betti, Dot Flynn and Joyce Firmin. We got right to work by starting our book cover sales in October. Our first dance was called the Harvest Hop and it proved very successful. Our next dance was the Cupid Dance held in February, which also was a success. Spring came and with it came the Annual Junior Prize Speaking Contest. Ann Fairbanks walked off with first prize with her touching selection Honey. Bill Andersen cap- tured second prize and Bingie Zuromskis took third. Then came that wonderful night of June second. This was the night of our Junior Prom. Beautiful girls and handsome fellows danced under a romantic tropical moon. Palm trees and monkeys, coconuts, lovely flowers and hula-hula girls all lent to the tropical splendor of a Ha- waiian atmosphere. Glamorous Anne Perreault was chosen queen of the Prom while four other beauties, Jean Dube, Bingie Zuromskis. Gail Riley and Bev Sweetman became her attendants. Finally the end of June arrived and we exhausted Juniors promptly retired for our badly needed ten-week vacation. Came September and sixty-eight Seniors returned to their classes, ready to start the last lap of the struggle. As ambitious Seniors we elected Bill Andersen to lead our class. Manuel Simonian became our vice-president while Mari- lyn Sencabaugh and Bobbie Loomer were re- elected to their respective offices of secretary and treasurer. Barbara Putnam, Ann Fairbanks, Phyllis Milde, Dot Flynn, Joyce Firmin were elected to the Student Council while Bingie Zuromskis became an associate member. Our first dance of the season was the Victory Dance held Thanksgiving evening, Everyone was in high spirits as our football team had beaten our rival Westboro in the morning. Fritz Mowry and his date were the lucky couple to be chosen King and Queen of the dance. During the fall we con- tinued our sale of book covers and started to sell Christmas Cards. These two projects added quite a bit to our sick looking treasury. And now we, the class of '51, leave the hallowed halls of Major Howard Beal High School. Some of us will continue our education, some will find jobs and many will be called to serve Uncle Sam. It matters not where we go or what we do, we will always remember the pleasant memories that go with high school. And in the future years we will have class re- unions where everyone of us may come and recall our high school days as the best years of our lives. T
