I reached for that dear blue volume of Memoirs Ten and fondly recalled the history of our four eventful years. Let us review our comparatively brief sojourn at our Alma Mater, seeing here and there the lighted candles that have always served as the beacon lights to our future. Let us open the frayed cover and enjoy the wealth of memory enclosed. In the fall of 1943, we entered Somerset High School as freshmen, as timid and frightened as any other class has ever been. Our first class meeting was held in October, and with the guidance of Mr. McHugh we elected our officers. They were: President: THOMAS JEWELL Vice-President: MARY VELOZO Secretary: VIRGINIA CROSSLEY Treasurer: THOMAS DOYLE Girl Councillor: DOLORES LYNCH Boy Councillor: ALEXANDER ROTSKO Our first step into the spot-light of entertainment was the Spring Dance in April, 1944. It was a real success, proving to the upper class-men that our class was capable of doing things well.. After a wonderful summer, we again entered SHS, this time as presump¬ tuous sophomores. We knew everything that year, or so we thought. At our first class meeting of the year, with Mr. Ralph Westcott our ad¬ visor, we elected the following officers: President: THOMAS JEWELL Vice-President: MARY VELOZO Secretary: VIRGINIA CROSSLEY Treasurer: THOMAS DOYLE Girl Councillor: JOAN ' ROTHWELL Boy Councillor: WILLIAM TURCOTTE Our second social activity in our high school career was the Thanksgiving Dance held in November, 1944. With appropriate decorations, a fine orchestra, and delectable refreshments, a wonderful evening was enjoyed by all. In our Junior year we embarked on the second half of our high school career. Miss Harrington was our advisor, and under her leadership we elect¬ ed as our officers: President: THOMAS DOYLE Vice-President: ELEANOR BODWELL Secretary: VIRGINIA CROSSLEY Treasurer: EVERETT KASHAR Girl Councillor: JOAN ROTHWELL Boy Councillor: ALEXANDER ROTSKO Our social activities were resumed with the Hallowe ' en Dance in October. With cornstalks and pumpkins, haystacks and scarecrows as our decorations, we all had an enjoyable time. April showers usually bring May flowers, but the April of 1946 brought a shower of class rings, never before received so enthusiastically. Then in June, for the first time, the Juniors, alone, sponsored the Junior- Senior Prom. Practically every one in the class helped in this important event, and it was a wonderful success. The Prom closed all social activities for the year and we woke up to the fact that in September we would actually be seniors. Then, September came and we seniors entered the last year of high school. Under the direction of Miss Mason, we elected for officers. President: THOMAS DOYLE Vice-President: MAUREEN HAYDEN Secretary: VIRGINIA CROSSLEY Treasurer: THOMAS DALEY Girl Councillor: ELEANOR BODWELL Boy Councillor: ROGER BRIDGE We had charge of the Autumn Festival, the first dance of the year, and it was a grand success. Before Christmas vacation, the Memoirs staff was organized and it began work immediately. Another project was the sale of Reyonlds ' Rockett pens. Then in March, we received the inevitable senior orals and everyone buckled down and really studied. Our final year ended with the Prom, senior banquet, and finally our own wonderful graduation. It seemed difficult to realize that we were no longer an active part of Somerset High School but had left to enter into a new world where we would no longer have the helpful guidance of our teachers and classmates. LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT We, the Class of 1947 of Somerset High School, the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, being of sound mind and body, do make, publish and declare this, our last will and testament. We, the Class of ' 47, bequeath to the class of ' 48, the answers to the new Senior Orals that they may have better luck with them than we had! We, the year book staff, leave to next year ' s hopefuls, Memoirs X as an example of what a staff can do in spite of its editor. I, Inez Gell, leave my shorthand hieroglyphics for Miss Mason to decipher in her spare time. I, Gerald Van Martin, bequeath my ' 47 Studebaker to those poor unfor¬ tunates who must walk to school every morning. I, Pauline Morin, leave a warning to the future chemists of Somerset High School—beware of sulphuric acid! I, Everett Kashar, leave my maroon and gold sweater that it may brighten up the lives of next year ' s French Class. I, Thomas Doyle, bequeath my well-known philosophy—to whom it may concern. I, Jeanne Bouley, leave behind my extra-curricular activities to be dis¬ tributed among next year ' s Seniors. We, the Cheerleaders, leave a new mascot to help next year ' s squad during a few basketball games. I, Madelyn Goff, leave, as an example that more than one benefit can be derived from education, my name. I, Joan Rothwell, leave my fancy figured sandwich paper to adorn the peanut butter sandwiches in the cafeteria. I, Jeanne Wambolt, leave my housing plans to the first junior to take that eventful journey to the altar. I, Elsie Oliveira, leave my quiet manner to those loud and boisterous people in the cafeteria. I, Ruth Weeden, leave the Pepsi Cola Scholarship test to those expectant juniors—it isn ' t worth it. I, Francis Lussier, leave my excess vim, vigor and vitality to those people who find it difficult to keep awake during class. I, Marjorie Boynton, leave the Breeze—long may it blow through the corridors of S. H. S. I, Virginia Crossley, leave my green ink to help decorate the reports due in. English IV. I, Thomas Jewell, leave my bright red suspenders,—I ' ll never use them at college. I, Lorraine Ferland, bequeath my efficiency to those poor souls who never have time to do their homework. I, Wanda Tolpa, leave my fashionable hair styles—the envy of various classmates. I, Clotelde Sousa, leave my bathing beauty sketches to adorn the walls of the boys ' locker room. We have heretofore ascribed our names and affixed our seals this 11th day of June, in the year of our Lord, one thousand nine hundred forty-seven. CLASS PROPHECY It is the year 1965, the year of the 175th anniversary of our town of Som¬ erset. Everyone has come back home for the great celebration. Most of the classes which graduated fifteen to twenty years ago are holding reunions. The class of ' 47 is going to hold theirs this afternoon. Donald Martins, owner of a bus company, has let us use one of his buses, the driver of which is Donald Mathewson. Shall we accompany him? The first person whom we ' ll pick up is Thomas Daley, owner of a chain drug store. He is having a little trouble with Liggetts ' and his lawyer is Tom Doyle, best criminal lawyer in the country. Staying with Daley are Roger Bridge, officer in the Merchant Marine, and Tom Jewell, commander of the U.S.S. fewellotsko which is also the name of a great suspension bridge being built across-the Mississippi River by construction engineer Alexander Rotsko. Also there is fohn Aylward, a scientist in DuPont chemical laboratory. The next ' stop we make is for Ruth Weeden, loan Rothwell, and their pianist, Veronica Apps, whose current appearances at the Metropolitan in New York promise to break all-time records. Then we stop for Dr. Everett Kashar, who has just completed a success¬ ful brain operation. The assistant surgeon was Dr. Robert Alves, who has a large practice in New York State. Next we pick up Raymond Soares now driving for Dick Crowe ' s Hell Drivers. Home for the occasion also is foe Arruda, a star of Big League baseball. At the next house, we get Inez Gell, Powers model, and Maureen Hayden whose smile still adorns the Ipana ads. Ginny Crossley, also staying with Inez, is now an occupational therapist and has built up a wonderful practice in Louisiana. lust back from the wilds of Africa is Alton Shaw, big game hunter, with his assistant trainer, Bill True. We ' d better get them next. Coming down the street we see Madelyn Goff and Shirley Wilson, now married, who have just left their children at the day nursery which is run by fanice Williamson and feanne Wamboldt, registered nurses. Open house is being held at the home of feanne Bouley, wife of million¬ aire M. J. Mintmore. We find there Pauline Morin, receptionist at the White House, Lorraine Ferland, secretary to the French delegate to the U. N., Bea¬ trice Holt and Colene Marchbanks, executive assistants to ferry Van Martin, of Van Martin and Lussier, Inc. and Shirley Lockhart, physical educ ation teacher in the high school. Also there, are Harold Southwick, Mgr. of the coat department at Macy ' s and his three models, Dolores Lynch, Betty Nolan, and Betty Rockett. Waiting for our bus in front of Wanda ' s Beauty Salon, we find Shirley Haggerty and Elsie Oliveira, secretaries to Eleanor Bodwell, interior decora¬ tor. Working at Wanda ' s are Lorraine Souza, manicurist, and hair stylist, Clotelde Sousa. Currently appearing at a nearby nightclub are Stansfield ' s Syncopators with pianist Dorothy Wood and bass violinist lean Harrington. On our way we were stopped by State Trooper Ernest Gagnon, but he only wanted to see his classmates and talk with them. The next day there appeared in the Sunrise Herald ' ' , of which Marjorie Boynton is editor, a detailed account of the reunion. ' I quote: The years have fulfilled many expectations but there were many sur¬ prises, too. Several members of the class mentioned how much they had come to appreciate the fine training received at Somerset High and how their edu¬ cation there helped them to lead a more successful and happy life.

After the Christmas holidays, school was scheduled to resume on Dec¬ ember 30, but through the efforts of a committee appointed by President Rotsko, it was changed so that it did not begin until January 2. A contest for a school emblem was sponsored by the Student Council with three dollars as a reward. It was won by Gerald Van Martin. Officers President .Alexander Rotsko Secretary .Doris Booth Vice-President .Mary Fitzgerald Treasurer .Everett Kashar Senior Representatives THOMAS DOYLE MAUREEN HAYDEN VIRGINIA CROSSLEY THOMAS DALEY ROGER BRIDGE ELEANOR -BODWELL Junior Representatives ROBERT McCLARY DORIS MELLO PHYLLIS WALKER JOHN COUNTOURIOTIS ABBOTT WILSON CYNTHIA GREENE Sophomore Representatives JOSEPH WOLSTENCROFT CLAIRE POWERS DOLORES SANTOS CARL SANDERSON ALBERT COMEAU PATRICIA MORGAN Freshman Representative JOHN LEONARD JEANNE BIENVENUE DOLORES SANTOS JOSEPH MULLEN ANTONE ALMEIDA MADELINE CRAWFORD m ixm v f; w THE LIBRARY ASSOCIATES This busy group of girls, under the leadership of Mr. William A. Hart, has done a wonderful job. Keeping an eye on nearly three thousand books is, as everyone will agree, no easy job, but the group has done just that, willingly and well. The Librarians had charge of an assembly this past year which was very informative and entertaining to the whole school. At the end of the year, the girls went on their annual banquet, and every one enjoyed herself tremendously. The members and officers were: Chairman: JEANNE BOULEY Cataloguer: VIRGINIA CROSSLEY Treasurer: JOAN ROTHWELL Secretary: JANICE WILLIAMSON Eleanor Bodwell, Doris Booth, Joan Linley, Jacqueline Manning, Marion Mosher, Phyllis Walker, Phyllis Bradley, Janice Duckworth, Claire Powers, Mary Lou Sullivan. r LE CERCLE FRANCAIS Le Cercle Francais is a novel organization whose chief function is to increase the students ' interest in French and enable them to have a greater knowledge of the language. If you should hear the members greeting one another en Francais do not be surprised. The bon jours ' and comment allez- vous ' are exchanged freely. A few of the activities sponsored by this organization, under the super¬ vision of Miss Walsh, were the adoption of a French war orphan to whom food and clothing were sent, a successful soiree dansante and a French assembly. The club enjoyed a prosperous year under the leadership of the follow¬ ing officers: President: PAULINE MORIN Vice-President: ALEXANDER ROTSKO Secretary: RUTH WEEDEN Treasurer: THOMAS JEWELL GIRLS ' GLEE CLUB This September, the Glee Club was reorganized with 106 members . With Miss Ruth B. Eddy as su pervisor, the club had charge of a much enjoyed Christmas assembly, and sang at graduation. Several new pieces were added to the extensive library of the club, among which was the well-known, much loved Waltz of the Flowers ' ' by Tchaikowsky. The officers for this year were: President: JOAN ROTHWELL Secretary: PHYLLIS WALKER Treasurer: DOLORES LYNCH Librarians: ELEANOR BODWELL, VIRGINIA CROSSLEY Pianists: DOROTHY WOOD, MADALENE PEREIRA, RUTH WEEDEN SPECIAL GLEE CLUB A new organization, the Special Glee Club, has been quite busy this year. Under the able direction of Miss Eddy, the club sang at a few school assemblies and many PTA meetings throughout the town. Several of the girls were chosen to be in the annual Lions ' Club Min¬ strel Show, some to sing, others to dance. It provided excellent experience for those who expect to be on the stage in later life, and was a lot of fun for all of the girls. The members of this year ' s club were: Seniors: Virginia Crossley, Maureen Hayden, Joan ' Rothwell, Ruth Weeden, Janice Williamson. Sophomores: Janice Duckworth, Joan Fredenburg, Claire Powers, Barbara Smith, Lorrame Trafka Catherine Quental. Freshmen: Edith Bouley, Catherine Camara, Marjorie Camara, Madelyn Crawford, Emily Deane, Wilma Dickinson, Joan Gonsalves, Elaine Medeiros, Dolores Nordeste, Therese Parent ORCHESTRA The orchestra, under the general direction of Miss Eddy, has enter¬ tained the student body and has afforded helpful instruction to the members themselves. The group played the night of March 25th at the meeting of the Somerset Lions ' Club. It has also been the rhythm center of Somerset High, and the work of the musicians has been greatly appreciated by both teachers and students. The members of the 1946-47 orchestra were: ANTONE AMARAL JOHN AYLWARD JOSEPH BARBOZA DORIS BOOTH ROBERT BROUGHTON WILMA DICKINSON JEROME GAGNON LLOYD GOLD JOAN GONSALVES CHARLES HARRINGTON ROBERT HART WESLEY JOHNSON PRISCILLA MARSH DOLORES NORDESTE JOSEPH O ' CONNELL ERNEST PACHECO EDWARD SANTOS THOMAS STANSFIELD KIMBER WHEELOCK HENRY VELOZA BREEZE STAFF Editor: MARJORIE BOYNTON Assistant Editor: MARY LOU SULLIVAN Literary Editor: THOMAS J.

When is The Breeze coming out? ' ' has been a frequently heard cry in the corridors of Somerset High during the past year. The ' Breeze , which was published every fortnight, created a great deal of interest among the students because of its wide range of topics. The staff has striven to publish a well balanced paper, one which would appeal to all types of readers. They have introduced a variety of new features and have combined the lighter element with some of the students ' more serious talent. The staff has worked hard to publish a good paper and their efforts have been greatly appreciated. . i ROUND TABLE The Round Table is an honorary society whose members are interested in the discussion of sociological and political problems. Following sufficient study and accumulation of data, the group presents assemblies in the form of debates, discussions and forums. The first debate given in 1947 was upon Compulsory Arbitration for industrial disputes. Instruction was given in public speaking by Miss Alice C. Harrington, group advisor. The Round Table ' s organization is on a parallel with that of King Arthur ' s. The members each bear a name whose virtue they are expected to honor and emulate. The club has had a very successful history at Somerset High School, and its purpose shall remain, striving to reach truth through knowledge. The members of this group were: President: THOMAS J. DOYLE Vice-President: ALEXANDER ROTSKO Secretary: JEANNE BOULEY Treasurer: EVERETT KASHAR BEATRICE BIENVENUE, THOMAS DALEY, THOMAS JEWELL, JOAN LINLEY, ROBERT McCLARY, JOSEPH ROSOLOWSKI. SHORTHAND CLUBS Organized for the advancement, enjoyment and benefit of commercial students, the Shorthand Clubs have continued the good work which was started last year. They have b een interested in commercial dramatics and have held very interesting assemblies. Under the guidance of their advisor, Miss Mason, the girls received experience in earning money for the benefit of the clubs. This year ' s educational and social activities have been pleasant and successful. The officers of the clubs were: Senior Club: President: LORRAINE FERLAND Vice- President: DOLORES LYNCH Secretary: COLENE MARCHBANKS Treasurer: ELIZABETH NOLAN Junior Club: President: DORIS BOOTH Vice-President: GERTRUDE CURT Secretary: MARION MOSHER Treasurer: SHIRLEY HAGGERTY -J THE CHEERLEADERS Working together with skill and coordination, the SHS cheerleaders have contributed to the success of the athletic teams. Setting the pace for the rest of the school, they have shown a never ending school spirit and displayed ability perfected through long hours of practice. They introduced many new cheers this year, including original acro¬ batics which were readily accepted by the student body. In their attractive blue and white uniforms they cheered the teams on to victory and completed the season by cheering at the Boston Garden, a fitting climax to a very suc¬ cessful year. The members of the 1946-47 cheering squad were: Head Cheerleader: MAUREEN HAYDEN, JEANNE BOULEY, INEZ GELL, JOAN LINLEY, JACKIE MANNING, JOAN ROTHWELL. GIRLS ' BASKETBALL TEAM The Girls ' Basketball Team, one of the newer organizations of Somerset High School, is under the direction of Miss Barbara Worton, The squad played eight games. Although their record was not too successful, the girls prac¬ ticed faithfully and enjoyed playing for the sake of goad sportsmanship. They look forward to a brighter season next year, and the experience gained will no doubt be put to good avail. The members of this squad were: CAPTAIN, SHIRLEY LOCKHART, COLENE MARCHBANKS, CYNTHIA GREENE, MARION MOSHER, MARY FITZGERALD, DORIS FAIRCLOUGH, PRISCILLA, MARSH, PHYLLIS WALKER, DORIS BOOTH, IRENE CLARKSON, PHYLLIS BRADLEY, JOAN FREDENBURG JANICE DUCKWORTH. - FOOTBALL TEAM The 1946 football team, under the leadership of Richard Crowe, one of the hardest charging and hitting linesmen in the Narry League, finished its season with 6 wins, 2 defeats, and 1 tie, which is a notable record in any league. Coach Boudakian, who had but three regulars returning from the 1945 team, had a lot of work cut out for him. Nevertheless, he did a wonderful job in filling the other eight positions with green men. Under his leader¬ ship, he molded a team around Joe Arruda, Alex Rotsko, and Dick Crowe, which was undefeated prior to a fluke 7-6 setback by Dighton. The boys were willing, they worked hard for long hours each afternoon and finished with a fine record.

I BASKETBALL - 1947 The 1947 Somerset High School basketball team can truly be termed one of the finest basketball teams, if not the finest, to have ever represented Somerset High School. Much credit for this is due to our capable coach, Harry Boudakian, who is responsible for the development of this great team. Versatile Captain Alex Rotsko teamed with George Snyder, Francis Lussier, foseph Arruda, Albert Hibbert and Antone Almeida to pile up a season ' s record of 17 victories and 1 defeat and earn an invitation to the Headmaster ' s Tournament at Boston Garden. Entering the Class C Eastern Massachusetts championship play with a 17-1 record the Blue Raiders met and defeated a strong Punchard High team from Andover, Massachusetts, but were eliminated in the semi-finals by a strong Provincetown team. The defending champions, although outplayed in the second half by the Blue and White, were able to gain a commanding first half lead which the Raiders were unable to overtake. Special mention must be given to Captain Alex Rotsko and team-mate George Snyder who were both chosen on the All-Narry League 1947 basket¬ ball team. Alex was given the honor of Captainship of the mythical team.
