'A' LITERARY SECTION Honor . To Miss Jane Holden, our commercial teach- er, we fondly dedicate this book. Whenever there's something to be done- whether it's typing, mimeographing, helping in the hot lunch room, teaching tap dancing for an entertainment, chaperoning a group, or any- thing else that needs to be done-she lends a helping hand with a smile. This cheerful helpfulness has won her the friendship of her pupils, fellow teachers, and others. 3 STATEMENT of THEME . WE WE have sports, WE sing, WE study, WE put on plays, WE have a Student Council, an Athletic Association. WE suffer through nine week exams and in general, keep pretty busy. When the little word WE refers to a high school, a whole group of happy boys and girls, it takes on new mean- ingg it fairly vibrates with activity. VV E are a hih school, a proud and active high school, and WE published this book, because WE want YOU to all know about US. C.E.C.'5o 4 ll 'c Tcaclz .

STORY of the YEAR Fruits of Success Put on Display Captain Virgil Beane places the league tro- phy, symbolic of the Upper Kennebec Valley basketball championship for 1949-50, in the new trophy case. Looking on are Dick Davis, forward and high scorer, and Mr. Raymond Dean of the faculty. Oddly, the other trophy in the picture was won exactly ten years ago. 193940- V.B.'5o Leisure Enjoyment at S.H.S. At our school we have many leisure activi- ties but none more popular than dancing. At recess, and noon you will find students whirl- ing to some fast record or waltzing to a nice slow tune. It's no wonder the Vic is always broken, but even so this doesn't stop the dancers. Where's Pauline, Shirley, Dotty?i' the cry goes until one is seated upon the rickety stool successfully pounding out snappy rhythm from the battered piano. Senior Play This is not a picture of a group going to a masqueradeg it is a picture of the cast of the senior play, Mystery at Midnight. Characters included everything from a charming young lady running away from home to a sick old lady, kept prisoner by a cold-blooded murderer. There were many headaches and worries during rehearsals but, like the play itself, it had a happy ending, as it was a big success. The play was presented to a large crowd at the Town Hall on December 9, 1949. Pounding the Keyboard Although our school is small, we are for- tunate to have a commercial course. Pictured here are some of the typing students at work. This year a new Smith-Corona was pur- chased for the typing room. In this room, too, is the mimeograph which prints the school paper and programs for all occasions, and the adding machine which is much in demand by members of the Bookkeeping class. f Every year the commercial student who has made the most progress during the year receives the Becker Award at the graduation exercises. Cheerleaders W-I-L-D-C-A-T-S! Five lovely young la- dies lead the crowd to a rousing cheer for Solon's team. Directed by Beverly Davis, the girls worked up many new and lively cheers. The crowds especially liked their singing cheers to the tune of The Hucklebuck and Chatta-Chatta- noogie Shoe Shine Boy. In the bright red jumpers this year were Shirley Coombs, Thea Foster, Betsy Loomis, Mary Woods, and Betty McCormack. Later in the year Betty was ill, and Helen Brann took her place. Comic Characters Come Calling Comic strip characters roamed the halls of S.H.S. all day. This was no dreamg it was Freshman Reception. The original sophomores commanded the greenies to come to school, each as a different person from the funny pa- pers. Humphrey Pennyworth, c omm o nl y known as Bernard Berube, caused uproarious laughter. Little Luluf' Black Samba, and Orphan Annie also were popular characters. All day long there were stifiled giggles and the very charming, blushing freshmen posed for many snapshots. Microscope With Mr. Pippin looking on, Betsy Loomis gazes intently through the new Bausch-Lomb microscope, while David Woods waits his turn, and Mary Woods looks through one of the two cases of plant and animal slides. These were presented to the school through the kindness of Mr. Loen Burbank and Mr. and Mrs. Tilden Davis. Included with the gift was a spare eye- piece and high and low power lenses. M.Tf'51'r Chemistry Puts Ideas to Work Experience is the best teacher, Here, chem- istry students are getting practical experience from their experiments. Pupils learn faster and remember longer if they set up an experiment and actually see the reactions. Looks like a pleasant way to learn. C.C.'5o 7 SENICRS We Look Aheaa VIRGIL E.

BASKETBALL Wildcats Win Championship The Solon lligh XYildcats, fighting with the fury of their namesakes. clawed their way through the Upper Kennehec Valley League without a hleniish on their record to win the championship for I949-50. Although small in stature and nuinher, the aroused Cats tore into their larger opponents and shellacked them uns niercifully. ln the league play, for instance. the smooth, speedy XYilcats dumped in 454 points in eight games to their opponents' ZIS. Their regular season record was I7 wins and three defeats. They hit their offensive peak against llarniony when they tallied 87 markers. a league record. Lanky Top XYashhurn parted the curtains for another high mark of 47 points in this tilt. Their defensive best was holding Anson Acadeiny to io points, all hut two coni- tcorztinued on Page 241 IV1' Play ATHLETICS GIIQLS' BA The Solon lligh girls' basketball team won IO out of their I7 games, capping third place in the Upper liennehec Valley League. The team made history by bringing to light two of the highest scorers on a Solon girls' team for many years. Together, Rowena XYashburn and Klary Woods tallied 54l points during the year. This total might have been increased considerably had not Miss VVashburn missed the Madison game because of a severe ankle sprain. Highlights of the girls' season were their two upset wins over Class L Skowhegan and their SKETIBALI. razor-edge loss to league champions, Anson, on the latter's home floor. Brilliantly representing their school on the All-Star team were top scorers Mary VVoods and Rowena VVashburn and that busy little guard jan Irvine. All members of the team with the excep- tion of the two senior guards, Connie Coombs and janet Irvine, return next year, and these. plus a host of talented stars from the once- heaten grammar school team make the locals one of the favorites in the lo5o-51 champion- ship race.

Baseball For the second year in a row the Solon XYild- cats presented one of the strongest teams in Somerset county on the diamond. The Cats tied for the league championship last year. only to lose the trophy in a heartbreaking play- off game by one run in ten innings. As we go to press, the league championship has not been decided, with Bingham, Central and Solon neck and neck. However, regard- less of the outcome of the remainder of the season, the locals have established themselves as a top-notch club again. Top Xlashburn again has won a big share of the games with his trusty left arm and war club. Members of the squad are Dick Davis, Dave XYoods.

Softball ' Coached by Miss Holden, our girls' softball team is looking forward to a fairly successful season. Due to the late snows the diamond has been wet and muddy. preventing our girls from getting much practice before their first game. early in May. As we go to press the season is just getting underway. but from where we stand now it looks as though slugger Jan Irvine and pitch- er Rowena XYashburn should lead an improved team to a much better standing in the league than was earned last year. Audrey Andrews was selected as manager and Margaret Thomson her assistant manager. Loreta Berry was elected captain. Girls who went out for softball were: Loreta Berry, Pauline Lombard, Betsy Loomis, Mary Longevin, Glennys Greenlaw, Phyllis Hilton. Joyce Bubar, Thea Foster, Frances XYorster.

They invited school board members and the superintendent of schools to come in and join the discussion. Also discussed were leisure-time activities and a clean-up drive. Une result of the meeting was the formation of the Athletic Association. Besides making money, this organization ar- ranges schedules for any money-making proj- ects the classes wish to try. In general it is the governing body of the school. Wv P1011 DI R I GO STN: F Dirigo Staff We Publish The Dirigo Editor-in-Clzivf .... .tlssistant ......... Busiizvss illanagcr . .-Issisianis . . .

VVork started early with a Christmas Concert and now as spring arrives, the birds have lots of competition. Early in May the combined choruses of Solon, North Anson, and North New Portland plan to have a concert in each town. The girls' chorus will sing Now Thank W'e All Our Cody' and The Cheshire Cat. The combined groups will sing The Donkey Serenade, A Little Close Harmony, and The Best Things in Life Are Free. 20 From these last live numbers Mr. Green will choose two or three to be sung at the annual music festival in Augusta on May 13. just before this book went to press the music department purchased a tape recorder. This recorder was put to practical use at the first rehearsal of the combined chorus. Numbers were recorded and played back. The chorus spotted their own weaknesses, and as the num- ber was sung for a second time, we heard the results that will give us a chorus to be proud of.

It has also entered the Colby Lovejoy contest sponsored by Colby College. The Courier this year is put out by members of a newly organized journalism course. Be- tween issues the class members endeavor to learn more concerning' newspaper work. The t'o1n'icr is used as the laboratory in which they experiment with their ideas. Not all their proj- ects are confined to the class and the newspaper. as this class has worked to improve the whole school. Une of their successful projects of the year has been a clean-up campaign, which has lasted throughout the school year. lfor the CARE soap campaign, the journalism class obtained 65 wrappers. XYhen this class realized that the high school had given very little to the March of Dimes, they innnediately went to work and before the day was out. the high school had given 10072. The last project was a traveling art exhibit. The XYomen's Club were special guests on the afternoon of the exhibit when Mrs. Madeline French spoke on Art as a Hobby and showed some of her own work. This busy little group has proved itself a definite asset to a good school. 21 UTERARY . . . We Write Rebound Well, that first half was a surprise.

Big jack Manders, center, expressed the feelings of Skip Harrison, Dickie Coe, and Russ Parker, other first-stringers, with sarcasm. Dante flushed but remained quiet. True, he had shot a lot from the corners, but he had four baskets, too. They were just jealous, he thought. Bear Ryan, head coach, spoke. Jack's right. There is no sense sh ooting from 25 feet out with a man clear under the basket. Sure, he'd think so, too. It was his duty, as a member of the high and mighty North Side of Halifax, to defend his friends, thought Dante. Gkay, let them play alone if that's the way they feel. Maybe they'd like his corner shots when they needed a basket. They trooped out on the Hoor. Dante had lost all interest in the game. He was through helping a bunch of guys who didn't even appre- ciate his work. As the half opened it was apparent they were going nowhere fast. Benton rolled up a 35-23 score and it looked hopeless. Dante caught a pass in the corner and let it Hy at the hoop, missing by two feet. jack Manders, who had been clear underneath, yelled, Okay, wise guy, go ahead and shoot. You'll be a hero whether we win or not. just then, a sub, Butch Hamm, a fellow south-sider, tapped Dante on the shoulder. I'm taking your place, Pritof' His tone was cool. Dante thought this was funny. Was he joining forces with the North Side, too? Now listen to me, Prito. Coach Ryan's booming voice brought Dante back to his senses with a bang. You'll sit right here and you'll see a five-man team together. Maybe 'Butch' hasn't your ability, but he's got more sense than you ever thought of having. 22 Dante sat down defiantly, without a glance at the coach. Let him ramble on if he wishedg nobody was. listening. B u t , slowly, D a n t e realized he was listening. Could he have been wrong? Perhaps he had been so sure they were stuck-up that he had failed to see a clear, unbiased picture of the North Siders. Sure, that was it. They had passed it to him, hadn't they? But it was too late now. They were certainly against him after his foolish actions. But Dante knew he had to play. The score was 41-33, thanks to some great shooting by Jack. Dante got up off the bench. He kneeled in front of Ryan. Please, coach, he begged, let me go back in. I see what you mean. I was all wrong. Ryan looked at him expressionlessly. For one agonizing instant, Dante thought he'd re- fuse. But Ryan grabbed him by the arm, and shouted. Get in there, boy, and give us this game! Dante joined his teammates. Hello, Hot-Shot. What's the matter? Aren't we losing by enough to please you F Jack's voice was bitter. Dante said nothing. He deserved their digs. The whistle sounded. Dante stole the ball, dribbled into the corner, then suddenly passed beautifully behind his back to Manders who, cutting underneath, scored easily. Jack looked at him with a startled expression on his face, but said nothing. Dante felt wonderful. That was a bigger thrill than scoring. Because it was giving instead of taking. Seconds later, Halifax took a rebound. It came to Dante. He saw jack racing for the basket. Timing his pass perfectly, he fed him for another easy lay-up. 37-41 now with about two minutes left. With a minute left, Dante again stole the ball and gave Jack a pass. The latter hooked in a beauty, and Halifax trailed by a single basket. This time jack yelled, Nice pass, Dante, boy. Dante liked that better than the tremendous cheer of the crowd. Benton took a running shot at the basket, and jack went high to grab the rebound. He tapped it to Dante, who raced for the basket, two Bentonites on either side of him. A voice yelled, Sink it, Dante. -Iack's! Dante was underneath the basket now. He went up in the air, turned and passed tojack. The two Ben- ton guards crashed down on Dante. His head struck something hard and all went black. fcontinued on next pagej We Write . . LITERARY Spring Rehearsal Have you ever really listened to the noisy bustle of spring? Has it ever reminded you, as it does me, of a rehearsal for a musical pro- duction? From the first timid peep of the first robin until the scorching days of the summer still the sounds, rehearsals go on. The thin flute tones of the small birds blend with the more throaty notes of the larger birds in perfect harmony as they practice the beauti- ful melodies for the finished performance some bright June day. In other sections not so close to nature the stage crew lends a hand and is busily at work. The boogie Woogie rhythm of the brooms is accentuated by the slap of the wallpaper brush and the more vicious beating of the rug in the background. Rhythmic dancing on the roof is contributed b y th e s il V e r y-footed raindrops of April showers. Tunes ranging from boogie Woogie to classics are heard and the world is full of music all through the lively season called Spring. REBOUND- fcontinued from previous pagej The splash of cold water on his face woke him up. Jack was kneeling beside him. Are you okay ?', Dante shook his head and rubbed his neck. The scoreboard read: 41-41. Good old jack had sunk it! And Dante had a foul shot com- ing with four seconds left. He got shakily to his feet. He had to make that foul shot. The crowd was screaming. The state cham- pionship hung on his shot. He bounced the ball, looked up, and let it go. Oh! Too much push. The ball bounced off the board and into the bas- ket. A lucky shot, but it counted one point. Seconds later the game ended. He was carried off the floor by his team- mates. Jack shouted over the others, I guess we showed them who has the best team, Dante. That's right, thought Dante. Halifax has the best team. And it was Halifax. It wasn't the North and South-siders. From now on, we pull together! My Prayer Dear God, in heaven, I pray For the children of the day yet to come. I want these children to be free And have the right to do what we, their fathers, have done. To be governed by those they choose, To learn to win, to learn to lose, to have fun. To love one God, there is no other, To love all races like a brother, let prejudice cease. The threat of A bombs and H bombs no longer near, From the terrible, blackening cloud of fear, to find release. Don't let them see the things we saw Don't let them know the hate of war, give them, A Perfect Peace. c.E.c.'50 A Teen-Age Romance A honk of the horn, a rush for her wrap, feanie's set to take off in that old rattle-trap, feanie's so serious yet sweet as can be, So different from Johnnie who's reckless and carefree. Off to a movie or off to a dance, It's a typical date of a teen-age romance, There's a last minute's warning of the hour to arrive, And a plea to be eareful whereever they drive. They hurry home from a late dance date, Really trying their utmost not to be late, To get in the house before the clock strikes That forbidding hour when it's no longer night. Together they dream of the life ahead, S he may have a career or marry Johnnie instead, Though serious now many things will unfold, Only time can tell what the future may hold. Thoughts of Easter 9 Easter is a rejoicing time For every person young or old. We feel the Easter joys sublime, When again the thrilling tale is told. Every heart is full of love j All sadness and tears will cease. We lift our eyes to the blue above So we may thank our God for peace. 23 LITERARY . We Write The Seniors Arrive! The senior class members of 1950 are as alike as Betty Grable and Gravel Gertie. Their difference begins with their arrival at school. For example, here comes Dick Davis, class treasurer, running to school as if it were time for the last bell. Actually, it is only eight o'clock. Of course. he lives a distance of IOO yards from the school, so he has to start early. Perhaps he wants to do the loo in ten seconds. Here comes Virgil Beane, class president. NVhat,s that he's coming on? Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No. It's his trusty bike, Look out, Virgil! Uh! Too late! And now, as Virgil disentangles himself from his bicycle and rushes up the stairs with the latest sports gossip, we observe Murry Bubar coming. As usual he is accompanied by two lovely young girls. How does he do it? Oh, well, maybe they like his phonograph. VVendell McCollor, vice-president, arrives in Dean's bus, unobserved by anyone except a certain girl in the freshman class. Someday she is going to fall out of the window in her anxiety to catch the first glimpse of him. Connie Coombs, secretary, and Jan Irvine arrive together. Let's pick up their conversation. Oh, I hope he comes down tonight! breathes Connie. Who? After Milan tells Connie of the latest Perry Como hit tune, Con- nie continues her silly chatter about everyone- knows-but-me. Ouch! We didn't mean it, Connie ! That leaves only Merrill Waugh unaccounted for. Is he going to be absent again? No, here he comes now. But why from the south, when he lives to the north? We'll ask him. Ah! Oh! We'd better not. I-Ie brought his foot- ball equipment with him! Well, there's the bell, and that concludes our little portrayal of the seniors arriving at S.H.S. V. BEANE '50 Boys' Basketball-fcoutinued from page 145 ing in the first half. Dick Davis, diminutive will-0'-the-wisp at forward, tallied 414 points during the season. The Wildcats took part in two post season tournaments. They were shaded by Unity, 37-36, in the Kennebec Valley Tourney at VVin- slow and split two Eastern Maine Tournament games. They upset third-seeded Island Falls 45-41, but lost to top-rated Carmel, 62-38. 24 EXCHANGES Editorials Show Interest In Community Monson's PH.-XRETRA has a distinguished editorial section. Especially interesting are, Reports on The Student Legislature, Forest Conservation and Fire Control, Lumbering in Maine. This shows that the pupils are inter- ested in the welfare of the community's indus- tries. Congratulations on Tin Anniversary The Madison BULLDOG made a happy choice in a metal-colored cover for their Tin Anni- versary issue.
