Headlight Flash from your height, O tiny beam of might, O'er jagged cliff and crashing wave below Pour out your small but piercing golden glow, A yellow ribbon cutting through the night. Cast out again your slender shaft and bright, A path across the darkening bay to throw Along which weary minds may swiftly go To find once more within its mellow light The days that rushed too swiftly into space, The family which grew to be so dear, The victories that filled the heart with pride, For these are carved upon each friendly face. -x- -me -x- Still lingering, the joys of yesteryear Forever new, within this book abide.

Four long years are now behind us with their many tedious and their many joyous moments. Our first year was a constant series of interruptions. We went to school in the afternoon whereas all of the other classes attended in the morning. In addition to this the annex was in the process of construction and the noises, dust, and odors were constantly evident. To guide us our first year we elected Hallam Singer, presidentg Lennie Singer, vice-presidentg Henrietta Robinson, secretary, and Paul Christiansen, treasurer. Brady, Christiansen, and Singer became noticeable on the football field. In our sophomore year after getting used to rising about 7:00 a.m. we went to work at once to elect our class oflicers. Hallam Singer and Lennie, his sister, retained the positions that they held during the preceding year as did also Henrietta Robinson. Patricia Springer was elected to the oflice of treasurer. In activities we more than supported our end. Edward Legere and Hallam Singer both won their football letters, while Paul Christiansen and Hallam Singer made a fine showing on the basketball team. Among the fair members of our class Eunice Palmer, Henrietta Robinson, Anne Norton, and Marion Heath showed remarkable ability on the basketball court. In addition a large representation was had in other extra-curricular activities. As Juniors we forged along with Miss Margaret Perkins for adviser, Paul Christiansen as president, Lennie Singer as vice-president, Alma Sears as secretary, and Charles Appleton as treasurer. Our class ring was selected by a committee on which Philip Dennett, Frances Lobdell, Eunice Palmer, and Virginia Urbano served. The representatives on the various athletic teams become too numerous to mention. Suffice it to say that Paul Christiansen and W'illiam DeCosta starred in football, Philip Russell and Donald Thorne starred in basketball for the boys while the girls cheered for Marjorie Berry, Constance Cullinan, and Anne Norton, and the track team boasted of Ralph Strachan, Edward Langlois, Fred Hale, and John McDonald. Now in our final year we elected Paul Christiansen to the office of president, Alma Sears to that of vice-president, Lennie Singer, secretary, and Charles Appleton, treasurer. The football team had a fine set of co-captains in the persons of William DeCosta and Paul Christiansen, while Philip Russell led the basketball team through a series of splendid victories. Anne Norton and Constance Cullinan served admirably as co-captains of a team that would have been the State Champion if such a title existed. On the track, Ralph Strachan led the team while James Coyne was the most outstanding athlete, having won the Vinal trophy. Others that starred were Fred Hale, John McDonald, and Edward Langlois. The team brought home the champion- ship at the Four Cornered Meet. Thus, with the naming of a few of our famous, we bring to an end this history. Page Forty-four SIGN IUII CLASS OI I IC'I IOII I'IXI',l'l I'IYI'I FUMMI I I I4 I SENIOR CLASS PLAY A bit of Broadway was brought to South Portland High School by the senior elass, when tl1ey presented Smilin, Through. Little needs to be said about the merit of this very well known play written by Allan Langdon Martin. Such veterans of school dramaties as Jackson Long and Franees Iiobdell lent warm humor to the play. John Devine. as quick-tempered, irritable John Carteret. who lived solely by the memory of a beautiful woman, gave an outstanding per- formanee. Long to be remembered was Maureen Maloney's characterization of the sweet. delicately frail Moonyeen. Phillip Russell, our gridiron gladiator. added another laurel to his brow by appearing with distinction as Owen Harding, the lovable, doetor. No one could have asked for a more sincere sketch of Kathleen than was given by Alma Sears. The audience was kept in an uproarious mood by Kathleen's Kilarney accent. her spicy, witty dialogue, her vivaeity, and, at times. her peppery disposition. To portray Kenneth Vvayne, the young soldier. it wasn't necessary to import a Bob Taylor or Richard Greeng we had our own romantic leading man-Joseph Burke. John Collins deftly painted Qin fast eolorsj the debouaire, revengeful. though rejected suitor. The quaint, billowy costumes of long ago with swirling, ruilled skirts, fitted bodiees and lace pettieoats added a gracious eharm to the production. Page Fllflllj-Sid' Os The stage scenery represented a rural Irish cottage and garden of three-quarters of a century ago. One saw the thatched roof, the rose bushes,,latticed windows, the rustic garden, and the gate with its rusty hinges. Smilin' Through, softly sung by Charlene Minott, lent an appropriate atmos- phere to the play. Miss Margaret Perkins was called upon, unexpectedly, to direct the production in the absence of the original coach. She directed, as she has our other class activi- ties, with her customary spirited yet painstaking manner. PROGRAM Act.

Seated at the top of a long flight of marble stairs was Abraham Lincoln, sheltered by a S0lCll1Il 111arble building. His face was illuminated by a bright light from overhead. As we gazed at this, a sudden rush of emotion came over us. VVhat was there i11 this statue that could make us feel like this? Humanity personified. Here, too, were the qualities for which there is such dire need i11 America today-justice, upright- ness, virtue, and valor. There was strength and gentleness in his kindly face. He had such a fine and noble look, with 111alice towards none. As he sat aloft in that firm chair, he gave us the impression of thinking, So this is what America has come to be. l'm just wondering if these people are strong enough to resist the attacks of the Communists and Fascists, or any other venomous factio11.

JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY Having passed the half-way mark of High School, the class of 19410 took on a new responsibility when it went into a huddle early last fall to select its new officers. When the crowd had disbursed and the dust settled sufliciently, Donald Ramsey was found to be the choice to lead the doughty band of seekers after knowledge. Belle MacDonald was elected vice-president, Ruth Cross, secretary, and George Foster, treasurer. It also became the class, due to its recent promotion, to choose an executive board. This consisted of Dulcie Geneva, Robert Cushman, Jane, Orr, Elaine Sullivan, Donald Greene, and Gene McGla1iiiin. To Alice McGinty, Josiah Colcord, Thelma Tamlyn, and Herbert Rice was allotted the task of choosing a variety of rings for the rest of the class to vote upon. At this same time, George Foster, Donald Ramsey, and Robert Higgins were winning their letters in football. Foster was named captain of next year's team. Charles Hannaford, Albert Beety, Herbert Rice, and Albert Carey were other Juniors who attracted attention in that sport. In honor of them and the rest of our very successful team, the class sponsored a football dance near the end of the season. Despite the handicap of having to replace at the last moment the decorations which some frivolous grammar school pupils had torn down, the dance proved a happy time for both the class and the customers. Shortly after this William Bailey represented the Juniors on the stage when the school presented Big Hearted Herbertf, Jean Morgan and Richard Innes were stage managers for the production. H During the winter, Caper basketball fans became familiar with such Juniors as Donald Ramsey, letter-man and captain-elect of next year's team, Edward Feeney, also a letter-man, Herbert Rice, and John Kershaw. Followers of the track team watched George Foster, Russell Redmond, Charles Hannaford, Ray Wender, William 0'Donnell, Josiah Colcord, and Stewart Bragdon being put through their paces. At this same time, quite a number of Junior Thespians commenced to tread the boards for the One-Act Play Contest. Those who tried for parts were William Bailey, Jean Morgan, Robert Cushman, Lois Libby, Frank Barron, Marilyn Libby, Belle MacDonald, and Robert Libby. William Bailey and Jean Morgan were the fortunate ones appearing in the final production. Mounting proverbial soapboxes now and then throughout the year to win speak- ing honors for the Capers were debaters Deane Hinton, Alice McGinty, Edwin Burt, and Eleanor Gorwood. Hinton and McGinty were on the varsity team.

SOPIIOMORE CLASS Ol I ICl'IRS Niwfy-fn FRENCH CLUB SOPHOMORE HISTORY v The class of 194-1 returned to school in the fall to find itself lookiiig forward to another year full of activities. At the first class meeting Donald McGlauflin was again elected to an office but this time as president. Virginia Perry again was elected vice-president, Jane Strachan, secretary, and Hubert Small, treasurer. . f When football started, the sophomores seemed to be well represented. Earl Smith, wholplayed guard, won his letters. Others who played well were James Dubowick, Hubert Small, Calvin Adams, Ben Lunt, and John Sylvester. As the basketball season rolled around, we saw James Dubowick playing in several varsity gamesg Hilbert Small, in varsity actiong Dana Brimecombe, Calvin Adams, Ben Lunt, Donald McGlauflin, Joseph McNealus, and John Sylvester on the sophomore team. Helen Coyne made a name for herself by winning her letter in girls' basketball varsity. She played regularly all season as a guard. Other girls who played wexe Shirley Fiske, Ebba Hellman, Louise Legere, Dorothy Soule, Eleanor Cross., and Zita Cullinan. The successful track team, also, had its sophomore participants. Outstanding among them was John Lydon, who starred in the low hurdles. Clayton Rines, a promising 250 man, received an arm injury in the early part of the season, keeping him off the boards for the rest of the year. ' The class was well represented in all the lesser sports. On the ski team was Joseph McNealus. A girls' swimming team was started this year by Miss Chambers. Many of the girls were ambitious enough to join. When the call for tennis was issued, a large number of girls turned out, eager to play. Sophomores taking part in the annual school play, Big Hearted Herbert, were Laurette Wender, Laurence Cannon, Ruthann MaLette, and Priscilla Winchenbach. We offered three performers to the one-act play, The Nine Lives of Emily. In the roles were Ruthann MaLette as Mrs. Rheadeg Zita Cullinan as her daughter Natalie Rheadeg Donald McGlauflin as Douglass Everett, a rich young man. A few of our enthusiastic stage performers took part in the beautiful Christmas Pageant. Sophs also participated in some of the rallies given before the games. Laurence Cannon was one of the Capers' peppy cheerleaders. Many of our talented went out for the prize-speaking contest, endeavoring to bring more honors to the class. In the spring we presented a successful assembly. A few of our Soph aspirants joined the Science Club, Donald Collins and Ruth Peterson being on the executive committee. Virginia Perry, our vice-president, and Mary Hasty were the only Sophomores to take up debating. Sophs were also members of the Hi-Y Club and Student Club. Several of our classmates played in the band and orchestra. Zita Cullinan was a member of the HEADLIGHT Board. Our classmates showed up well in the Rifle Club, as well as in the Art Club.

We, 318 strong, are to be the heroes and heroines of later years. The Hrst thrill was the Freshman Reception. The seniors gave us a wonderful time. Donald Maloney became the first hero by representing our class on the stage. We became acquainted with several members of the faculty and met new friends. Next we elected our class officers. The returns showed that we had chosen as president, Scott Oliverg vice-president, Jeannette Orr, scribe, Beverly Beal, keeper of the exchequer, Donald Maloney and Mr. Charles Kahill as grand vizier. On the football field we are assured of a hero in Scott Oliver. Many others have made the second team with Mr. Cogan as coach. Those on the boys' basketball squad are Brimecombe, Curran, Dennis, Eaton, Legere, Meuse, Mann, O'Donnell, Oliver, Ridley, Rowe, Wallace, and Woodward. O'Donnell was outstanding on the track team and there are others who will be regular winners. The girls' basketball team came through with nary a loss.', On the team were Captain McNealus, Aldrich, Baker, Beal, Clary, Cooper, Dyer, Jones, Libby, Malia, Morrisey, Peterson, Rosenbloom, Stevens, and Willey. Miss Chambers helped us through the season. Algebra may have got us down, but we held our ground on the mid-year exams. The Freshmen have their quota on the honor roll. We also had our enthusiasts in such activities as the Hi-Y Club, Student Club, Band, Orchestra, Glee Club, and the Science Club. Many of the roles in The Court and the Co-ed were won by the freshmen. VVe are well represented in the chorus as well. Freshman baseball has many promising candidates for the team: Mann, Dennis, Curran, Cribby, Brownell, Meuse, Eaton,,Allen, Tripp, Rowe, Dyer, Scott, 'Wood- ward, Legere, and Steves. The Debating Club had its eager freshmen. Irene Campbell represented the freshmen, and the school, in a prize-speaking contest at Standish. Girls' tennis brought out many greenhorns who were trying to learn a few tricks of the -trade. VVe had our fingerprints taken, but just for identification. A A few freshmen girls upheld the swimming team.. With such a favorable beginning, we are looking forward to three more pleasant vears and are trying to make 19412 one of the best classes ever to graduate from South Portland High School.

with pride at the unprecedented record of its foot' ball tcain. lt is a nieniorablc tribute to Bill Curran. the ncwlv appointed coach. and his aides that within a few short weeks they taught an unfamiliar system so snecessff fully that the teani was sole and rightful clai . both the Southwestern Maine t'onf'erenee title and the Mythical State Chainpionsaip. having completed its season undefeated. l lingin' l'hce Hnssell's amazing passing ability stood out niorc noticeably in the first three gaines in which he completed seventeen out of twenty passes. Big Paul Christiansen. co-captain and quarterback. was a tower of strength both offensively and defensively. His blocking and tackling are best described as vicious. Little Billy Dcfosta, co-captain, is rcnienibered for his unsurpassed kicking .ind blocking. His surprise kick-back of the opening kick-otf in the Edward l.ittle game paved the way for the first score and his consistently exceptional blocking stood first all season. Krone Thorne. glue-fingered end. whose nnexcelled pass receiving accounted for niany victories. and Charley Appleton, the cream of the confcrcncc's crop of guards. were elected to this year's All Conference teani. Others who stood out consistently were Ken Ferguson. burly tackle. and George Foster. a speedy halfback and next year's captain-elect. l ergy's inspired play in the Thornton ganie was instrumental in stopping the powerful attack of the Saco hovs. and l oster's steady ground gaining and brilliant defensive work duly accounts for his having been elected to the captainship. Much was attributed to thc tt'11llllS luck. This luck coupled with an uncanny ability to play best when the going was rough can perhaps best explain its consistent winning. Iwyrf Sl I'Pllf.ll'-.N'f.l' BASKETBALL Carrying on with the same fighting spirit that characterized the football team, the boys' basketball team went through a brilliant season, defeated but once in the rcgular season by a high school team. Not only was thc' team tops in standing but also in stature. for this team was perhaps the biggest in the school's history. For smoothness of play and coolness in the clinches, the boys as a unit were uncxcelled. The floorwork of Georgie Dyer. the long distance shooting of Bronc Thorne, the gracefulness and accuracy of Phee Russell along with the aggressive-- ness of Paul Christiansen and the passing of Huck', Ramsay combined to form 0116 of the truly great basketball teams produced by South Portland High School. Coach Ollie Berg can be justly proud of such a brilliant outfit and deserves much credit for its fine display of aggressiveness and sportsmanship. Since South Portland won the conference crown, they were naturally chosen one of the eight teams in the Lewiston Tourney. Rumford. the first opponent was easily beaten. It was in this game that Ulironcn Thorne made his amazing floor-length shot wl1icl1 should prove a classic in basketball sagas. The team lost a heart-breaker to Cheverus in a riotous second game-a game which saw a last-second foul shot by Cheverus make good, tying the score, and, ill :1 'isudden death overtime, a quick side shot which won the game for Cheverus. In the all-conference selections, South Portland placed two able men on the squad, Captain Pheei' Russell at center for the second time in as many years and George Dyer at guard. Huekl' Ramsay was elected captain for the 194-0 season, a position which he unquestionably deserves.

X UND ll XXI likblxl, l BALI, CI l'l3 THE TRACK TEAM Under Coach Spud Nason's able guidance, the indoor track team ended its season with but two defeats chalked up against it, and those by college frosh teams. Led by Captain Ralph Strachan, fleet-footed hurdler, this team caught the winning spirit of the football and basketball team and went after their victories in the typically tenacious South Portland manner. At the University of Maine, the team upset a fairly strong frosh outfit, and the following week lost a close one to the Bates yearlings. With an eye on a Four Cornered Meet victory, Coach Nason urged his charges to their utmost. They responded nobly by rolling up points against Portland, Deer- ing, and Thornton with careless abandon. At the Exposition Building, the boys started off slowly, but, with the start of the distance events, gained by leaps and bounds and at the end of the meet were well out in front. This meet is the gauge of a man's ability in a very large field of schools. Captain Ralph Strachan stood out in this meet, acquiring two firsts in the high and low hurdles. Jim Coyne placed in three events-the high jump and the high and low hurdles. George Foster won the javelin throw easily and Russ Redmond took third in a fast field of half-milers. , Coach Nason is looking forward to the State Meet in June and from all appear- ances the boys have an excellent chance to win the title.

Bill Curran, the new coach, certainly knows his baseball and from all appearances will have his team in the thick of the iight for the Telegram League Crown. From last year's team comes the potent bat of Captain Harold Johnson, the smooth fielding of Huck Ramsay, and the deadly moundwork of Phee,' Russell. These three are ably assisted by the hitting of sophomores Marty Zerigian and Jimmy Dubowick, third base and center field respectively. The powerful bats of seniors Arnold Greenleaf, at left field, and Johnny Devine, first baseman, and the all around ability of catcher Cal McGeehan, and second baseman Ed Laliurge, cannot be overlooked. So far this year the team has won three and lost two, trimming Thornton, Bidde- ford, and Portland, and losing close ones to Sanford and VVestbrook. This 1939 baseball team, although not having as much material to choose from as the other athletic teams, shows the typical Caper spirit and fight and uses it to advantage when it counts.
