trade beaver Published by the students of SPRINGFIELD TRADE HIGH SCHOOL I sagietapmcnicatpenneqnesionsie All the world’s a stage, And all the men and women merely players: They have their exits and their entrances; And one man in his time plays many parts, His acts being seven ages. At first the infant, Mewling and puking in the nurse’s arms. Then the whining schoolboy, with his satchel And shining morning face, creeping like snail Unwillingly to school. And then the lover, Sighing like furnace, with a woeful ballad Made to his mistress’ eyebrow. Then a soldier, Full of strange oaths, and bearded like the pard, Jealous in honor, sudden and quick in quarrel, Seeking the bubble reputation Even in the cannon’s mouth. And then the justice, In fair round belly with good capon lined, With eyes severe and beard of formal cut, Full of wise saws and modern instances; And so he plays his part. The sixth age shifts Into the lean and slipper’d pantaloon, With spectacles on nose and pouch on side, His youthful hose, well saved, a world too wide For his shrunk shank; and his big manly voice, Turning again toward childish treble, pipes And whistles in his sound. Last scene of all, That ends this strange eventfu l history, Is second childishness and mere oblivion, Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything. “As You Like It” Act 11) Semva To Dr. George A. Burridge, Principal of Trade High School from 1917 to 1949, as a tribute to his vision of the needs of voca- tional training for youth; the wisdom with which he guided the school in its early days; his many years of loyal and devoted service; and, above all, his splendid qualities as a Christian gentleman, which should serve as an example and inspiration to those who had the privilege of being associated with him, we respectfully dedicate the 1950 Trade Beaver.

We have spent most of our lives, up to now in school, the last few years in Trade. Now we are leaving school and starting on life’s journey by ourselves. No longer shall we have the protection of our instructors, no longer shall we be able to ask their advice. We are on our own. We must rely on the learning we have procured in school, and especially at Trade, for it is here that we have really gained the knowledge that will guide us through the years to come. We have been trained in the crafts of our choice, we have been taught the fundamentals; it is up to us to put them to use and to build our lives on these foundations. But wait—think how lucky we are to have had the good fortune to obtain these groundings in such a modern school and under such apt leadership as that of Dr. Burridge, Mr. Garve y, and Mrs. Ells. Think back to the years past, to the first half of this most wonderful century, and remember the great people who have made these fifty years so progressive and remarkable. Men such as Winston Churchill, Thomas Edison, Henry Ford; all have shown their mettle. It is up to us, with them as examples, to go out and show ours. Have we perhaps a potential Churchill or Edison among us? We have had our training. Trade has nearly finished its work with us. Our teachers and principals have done their utmost. But before we go, we should like to thank the faculty for their patience and for the knowledge they have passed on to us. We should like to thank Dr. Burridge, Mr: Garvey, and Mrs. Ells for their encouraging leadership. To Mr. F itzgerald and Mrs. Thompson, for their guidance, we give our deepest appreciation. Finally, we should like to thank, from the bottom of our hearts, Mr. King and Mrs. Sullivan, for every- thing they have done for us. We have been trying at times, to say the least, but they have borne our caprices with patience and fortitude. Finally we have completed our obligations and are ready to leave. Our journeys will take us great distances and in many different directions. No matter how far we venture from these happy halls and from the pleasant days spent here at Trade, let us remember. “The days that make us happy make us wise”. seniors could this be? What’s going on? We soon discovered that our school was to be the headquarters for a convention of vocational teachers from all over New England. Twelve hundred teachers were to visit our school to observe the latest trends in vocational education. Signs are everywhere, and all over the school there is activity and excitement over the preparations. Everyone, both students and teachers, is helping in some way to make this large group of teachers feel at home. SENIOR YEAR The news that our principal, Dr. Burridge, is leaving gives an accent of sadness to the beginning of our Senior year. He was instrumental in securing our beautiful new building and was director of the Trade School in this city for thirty-four years. Dr. Burridge decided to go back to his home town of Yarmouth, Nova Scotia. There he is to supervise the erection of a new school and will be its first principal. At his last assembly at Trade we presented him with a large dictionary and a pen and pencil set. Every student wishes Dr. Burridge good luck and happiness in his new venture. The School Board elected Mr. Edmond P. Garvey as Principal of Trade High School. Mr. Garvey was not a stranger to Trade High, having taught here in the Radio department, prior to his enlistment in the Navy. We are fortunate to have a man of Mr. Garvey’s ability as our leader. He has had wide experience in industry, in the Navy and at M.I.T. At this school, as a Lieutenant, he set up the Naval Radar Department. He was its first laboratory instructor and later became assistant professor of the department of Electrical Engineering. With Mr. Garvey at the helm, Trade High School should embark upon many successful voyages over the educational seas. After a year’s hard work on Mrs. Ells’ part, Trade High Band has received its -uniforms. Are they proud! We don’t blame either Mrs. Ells or the band, for as far as we’re concerned, we have the best dressed band in the city, yes, even in the country! ‘The band’s first performance in their new outfits was at the 1949 Eastern States’ Exposition. We won second place in the Court of Honor. The majorettes have new gold-trimmed uniforms. As they march with the band, it is an inspiring sight. All during the year we have had splendid music at the football and basketball games as well as at assemblies. Everyone was surprised to hear the band play a popular tune and a polka in the Trade-Scapades. We were all happy this year to receive the latest model in streamlined desks which were installed in the boy’s department. Now, everyone can write and do his work with a maximum degree of comfort. Now that the Dental Assistants Course is well established, a new course for Medical Assistants attracts our attention. Mrs. Ingeborg Drewry, a graduate nurse from the University Hospital of the University ef Minnesota, is the instructor. Lead- ing doctors of the city give lectures and advice to the students concerning all medical procedures. You should see the girls in their pale blue uniforms. At the end of the course, they will receive white organdy caps. Every two weeks we read the Craftsman. Miss Melvin and her staff keep us informed of what happened, what is happening and what is going to happen. The paper “sports” a specially designed cover and is printed by an automatic mimeo- graph machine. se Class rings have arrived and are being proudly displayed by us. There remains ahead of us Class Day, our Prom and Banquet, and Graduation. It’s wonderful to be a Senior, but how we shall hate to leave Trade High. ee 8 A Look Into the Future | or The Mirror Talks Back Act I Scene I As the scene opens, two inventors, Bill Scholes and Cosimo Longo, are reclining in their office located at the corner of Bridge and Main Streets. Their secretary, Dolores Tergliafera, is busily typing at a desk at night center. Up stage center are two large windows overlooking Main Street. In front are two large desks, back to back, each with a swivel chair. There is the usual collection of office furnishings and files. Cosimo is comfortably seated on his spine with his feet on the desk. It’s a warm day, so his hat sits jauntily on the back of his head. His sleeves are pushed up. His socks are rolled down, and his shoes are off. Bill is in about the same position and attire. Cosimo —Well, I guess we’ve struck it rich, Bill. Bill —Yup, guess we have. Cosimo —People have waited all their lives for an invention like ours. Bill —It’s got it all over the Crystal Ball. You don’t need a fortune teller or anything. Cosimo —Nope, all you need to do is walk up to the mirror, recite our poem, and unbutton your ears. Bill —It’s so simple that even Mitchell Filip was able to discover what he would be doing in 1975. Imagine!!!!1! Cosimo -—I wonder what he found out. Bill —It told him something he has always wanted to know, the difference between a circle and ‘a square. Cosimo —Did you hear what the mirror told Ruth Reed? Bill —No, What? Cosimo —(laughing) It told her that she’d better stop trying to create busi- ness for her millinery shop by sitting on people’s hats. It’s a dangerous occupation. Hat pins are in style again. Bill —That’s a good one. I was listening the other day when Bob Mc Gowan walked past. Cosimo —You were? What did he find out? Bill —The mirror told him that his magic paint brush with its radar controlled motion would paint the greatest mural of all times. Dolores —It seems to me that you inventors should stop talking and see if this so-called invention of yours works. Bill —That’s right. Let’s test it out. There are plenty of things I want to know. Cosimo —Let’s take it down there on the corner. That will be the acid test. Act I Scene II The scene opens on the corner of Bridge and Main Streets. A huge mirror has been installed in front of the drugstore. In the doorway, Bill and Cosimo are trying to appear nonchalant. Bill nudges Cosimo. Bill —Hey! Here’s our mirror. Cosimo —Yes, but what shall we do now that we have it where we want it? Bill —Say the Magic poem. Cosimo —Oh yes, I’ve forgotten about it. So together they say the poem. They register surprise, for as they talk, they are able to see into the future. Mirror, Mirror, on the wall Tell us something, tell us all. Tell us of each lad and lass Of our great and hopeful class. Tell us each and one, our fate Be it small or be it great. Mirror, Mirror, on the wall Tell us something, tell us all. As they speak, figures and scenes appear on the clear surface of the mirror. Cosimo —Look! There’s a new, beautiful, red, atomic-driven train. Bill —The engineer looks familiar. Why, it’s Albert Allen at the switch- board! His assistant is Barbara LaMascolo, the authority on atomic ower. Cosimo Bo heres a big electric sign on the front. It reads, “The Presidential Comet” — “Good Will Tour’. Now it’s stopping, and the crowd is going wild. The President of the United States has just stepped out on the platform. Who would believe it? It’s David Smith, our Bill Cosimo Bill Cosimo Bill Cosimo Bill Cosimo Dolores Bill Cosimo Dolores Bill Cosimo Dolores Bill Dolores Cosimo Bill Cosimo Dolores Bill Dolores Bill Cosimo Dolores Bill Cosimo Dolores Cosimo Dolores Bill own Class president, followed by that famous head of the F. B. I., Francis LaValley, and his able assistants, John Mooney, Josevh Terzi, and Francis Nowakowski. —Can I stand any more of this!!! It’s Nicholas Slepchuk. Doesn’t he look handsome and businesslike in that bright violet F. B. I. uni- form? —The crowd is cheering again. They are calling, “We want to see the first lady”. Here she comes. It’s the former Edith Boucher. Here comes the mayor of Springfield, Joe Veteramo, the People’s Choice, with his wife to welcome the distinguished guests. —Isn’t the mayor riding in a new “Ferrara”? —Yes, he is. And Ray LaBonte is his chauffeur. —Here comes the mayor’s valet, Bill Henderson, bringing a beautiful bouquet of flowers. He’e handing them to Mrs. Veteramo. Who is that lady behind the sheaf of flowers? —It’s Barbara Tiberio, his former secretary. —She is presenting them to Mrs. Smith. —FPresident Smith is shaking hands with all the official dignitaries: City Clerk, Francis Coulter; Smoke Inspector, Ed Turnberg; State Senator, Loretta Motyka; and Judge Roland Savoie. —The parade has started, and Trade High surely is well represented by those dark blue uniforms with the twenty-four karat gold braiding. —Sure look sharp, don’t they? —Can’t be real! Look at those instruments! Plastic, I think. —You can certainly tell that’s William Pegoraro’s idea. He always wanted to become famous, and I guess he has done it. —He not only invents, but did you hear, he’s the head of the plastic gadget department of Trade High School. —Those boys and girls in the center look familiar. They look like the sons and daughters of Bob Benson, Richard Guilmain, Phyllis Ziem- ba, and the famous musician, Ray Smith. —Barbara Pfisterer’s beautiful baton starlets are leading the band. —Hey, the crowd is getting out of hand. Police Chief Anthony Sternal and Police Commissioner George Harding better get their men on their toes. —I guess you spoke too soon. —Yes, in back of them is a line of the finest police captains in the country. Look at them if you want to see something. There’s Frank Przybycien, Hervey Daigle, Thomas Gordon and Robert Amsden. You know, I can’t get over the way our Trade graduates have pros- pered. —The mayor is bringing his guests to the new city hall for dinner in the famous William Cunningham Room. Let’s follow them with the mirror. —Can either of you make out what that radium plaque on the wall reads? cane —Well, what does it say? —It reads: “Decorated in 1970 by Richard Livingston and his able assistant, Robert Hemingway.” —Look at the clock made in the form of a calendar with weather bul- letins issued every half hour. —There’s a dedication on it. Let’s look. —Why, it reads: “Presented to the city of Springfield by the Lemon and Loyd Manufacturing Company.” —Boy, that looked like a good dinner, wish I were there. Too bad this mirror doesn’t let you sample the banquet. And the caterers were Caron and Cangro. Do you remember them? —Stop talking about food. You’re making me hungry. —Put your minds back on the mirror. The speeches are beginning, —Say, just listen to Joe Mazza’s talk. I think he’s the best so far, don’t you? State Senator, Biase Porfillio was good on “No Taxa- tion”. —I could have listened to him forever. Such personality! And as for oratory, he’s the best on the radio. —As far as that goes, the whole program was swell: Jean Carroll’s song, “The Richard Clapper Blues”, Ruthann Durick’s ballerinas, and that hilarious comedian Paul Bannon, Cx simo Bui Dolores Bill Cosimo Dolores Bill Cosimo Dolores Bill Cosimo Bill Dolores Cosimo —So much for entertainment. I’m more interested in the Ball. —Sure wish I could dance, look at the fun everyone is having. —Tl’ll teach you someday if you want. —T'll take you up on that. —Hey you two, break it up. Listen to that swing band. I never knew Elsia Hamilton was so musical. I understand she’s the greatest of women band leaders. —TI hate to see it end. Look at the time, it’s getting late. —yYes, that’s true. The President’s tired and he has many other cities to visit. —There goes that atomic whiz. —Time to close shop. —Yup, I’m kinda tired now and supper is probably waiting. I almost forgot, tonight is the night we have my favorite hash dish, Hill and Halls Ham Hash. The Hash With a Home-made Dash. —That surely sounds good enough to eat. —Why don’t you two come home with me? My wife always cooks enough for unexpected guests. —Swell. —Well, what are we waiting for? Aect II Scene I The mirror has been placed in the main hall of Trade High School. The two inventors and their secretary are found seated before it gazing intently at its moving scenes. A large sign, “Alumni Meeting of the Class of 1950” suddenly appears in the mirror. Dolores Bill Dolores Cosimo Bill Dolores Bill Cosimo Bill Dolores Cosimo Bill Cosimo Bill Cosimo Bill Dolores —QOh! Look! Look who the principal is. Of all persons, George Starr, and the assistant principal is Bill Mumford. —Can’t quite make out what they’re saying. Oh! the alderwomen of Springfield are to be guides for the 1950 alumni. They are Vera Naglieri, Beatrice Drago, Annette Domingue, Anna Hecht, Joan Maurer, Mary Redmond and Janet Baldger. —The first stop on the tour is the new auditorium, decorated by Leo Kecki, known for his ability to transfer human personalities to the canvas. —The guests are now seated, and the Water Commissioner, Odbur Newth, and Superintendent of Streets, Joseph Adams are giving their welcome speeches. —Let’s go to the third floor. There is Barbara Harnois, head of the Girls’ division, and her assistant is Lois Dodge. Twenty years have certainly changed Trade High. —My shop has been changed the most. They now have a modeling studio with Lucy Frutuoza as the designer, and Alice Girard as the model. Head seamstress, Mary Rose Mercure, and her assistants Shirley Maiolo, Irene Walker, Dorothy Loveland, Jeannette Benoit, Gloria Arment, and Annie Belle Sharpe are working hard on mass production. —That cake, a replica of Trade High School, seems to have Joseph Passy and Donald Tippett working hard and long hours on their nerve-wracking idea. —Here we are now in the Cafeteria. Raymond Maria is Chief Chef now. —wWalter James, Stanley Peczka, and Arthur Wolfe have prepared a delicious feast under the supervision of Laurel MacDonald and Elizabeth Cole. —Just like old times, the girls are bossing the boys. —This is certainly some school, and to think that all my old classmates are here working so hard. I never would have believed it could happen in a hundred years. —Say, have a look. That’s the gym. There’s going to be a basketball game. And it’s all the members of our class. —Who is playing? —Bakery and Beauty Culture. —After twenty years, it will be something to see. —Representing bakery on the team are Catherine Brennan, Barbara Neilson, Kaye Butcher, Patricia Simons, and Elizabeth Cole. They call themselves the ““Matrons of Basketball’. —Their opponents of the class of 750 from B eauty Culture are Lor- raine Butler, Marion Burnett, Betty Demos, Mary Baker and Janet Holden. - 0.5 = Cosimo -—What a game! The referee, Barbara King has called a foul. Bill —Wait! There is a disagreement, and it takes Eva Mercure, ath- letic star of the United States, to settle it. Dolores —The crowd is getting excited. Those girls are certainly spry after all these years. Can you see Carolyn Barnes, Charles Burke, Laura Moller, Barbara MacDonald and Donald Duperre sitting in the front row? They look prosperous and are all married, too! Cosimo —Guess who couldn’t miss the game? The Donald Paynes, even though they had to fly from San Francisco. Bill —There’s another of our friends, Margaret Bolio and her husband, also with them are Eleanor Tucker and her husband. She brought the twins, too. Cosimo -—Time certainly marches on. Aet IT Scene II The two inventors and their secretary are still seated in front of the mirror. They appear excited, although somewhat tired. They seem to be listening to a speech. Voice —Ladies and gentlemen: It gives me great pleasure to speak to you this evening about my travels all over this great globe. It gives me even greater pleasure at this reunion to tell you of my meeting with so many of my classmates of nineteen fifty. Dolores —Why, its Bartolo Pellegrini of welding! He’s the greatest explorer and traveler in existence. Bill —Keep still. I want to hear what he’s saying. Pellegrini—Yes, in Coco-Sola I met Clio Viecelli, Francis Carmel and Robert Dasso. ‘They were manufacturing rust proof keys to open the locks in the Panama Canal. And in South America on the Pampas of Chile, I met George Tatro and another expert cabinet maker, James Hackett. They were trying to make Chile warmer. Cosimo -—Trade High graduates certainly get aro und. Dolores —-Sh—h—h. Listen to this. Pellegrini—In David McIntosh, Missouri, named for the great inventor, I discovered the Guilmain car factory. There were Argiro, Cardin, Domino, and Fredrici, creative engineers for the Guilmain car. Richard Clapper was there too. He’s happy, now. He’s Superin- tendent of the entire factory. Bill —That car won the world award as the automotive creation of the century with its Demetrius engine, Racine body and Marsh gener- ator. Pellegrini—But my greatest exploring was done when I went across that new bridge. You have all heard of the Don Pendleton Memorial Bridge. Dolores —That’s the one being built across the Atlantic Ocean. Pellegrini—Ernest Callos, master mind inventor and president, sends his greet- ings to the class of 1950. His staff joins him with best wishes. They could not attend because they are rushing that Trans-Atlantic structure. The staff members are: George Desrosiers General Manager Katherine Streeter Secretary to the President Edward McLaughlin Electrical Wizard Walter Dansereau Metal Consultant Joseph Mitchell Smiling Welder Gordon Marsh Transportation Superintendent Joseph Burzynski Toll Collector Cosimo —I just can’t believe any more of this. I never thought my pals could make such a place for themselves in the world. Pellegrini—In closing my report on alumn i who are not able to be present, I should like to read a cheery greeting from four of my former fellow- students. “When you are tired and blue And don’t know what to do Travel Gravel, relax with Nadle Eat with Bishop, see the world with Fish.” Reduced rates given to worn-out, tired and discouraged graduates of Trade High. Dolores —We still haven’t heard from quite a few of our classmates. I won- der where the rest are. Bill —Here’s your answer. It’s a program. I wonder if we shall be able to read it. Cosimo —It’s clear enough. Look a t what it says. “Trade-Scapades of 1970, a revival of 1950.” Dolores Bill Dolores Cosimo Dolores Bill Cosimo Dolores Bill Dolores Bill Dolores Cosimo Voice wn —Hurry up! This should be good. —Overture—‘“Sleeping Beauties” composed especially for the 1970 revival by Mary Loomer. —Is that band leader Charles Lockwood? Look at what the program reads: “Off-Beat Charles Lockwood and his Off-Beaters.

Who has charge of that array of talent? —lIt’s on the back of the program. Director(s) The Setterstrom Twins Sound Willie Raye, John Parzych Costumes Howard Sturm Dance Director Donald Tippett Usher Rose Deleo —If I weren’t so tired I’d like to see that show. —Say, look who is coming. It’s Bill McCallum and John Dalsova of the class of 1951. —I’m going to find out from the mirror what they'll be doing in 1971. —Look! Something funny is happening. The light is going out, the voice has stopped, and there’s nothing! —Yes there is, listen. Do you hear that noise? It sounds like thunder. It’s not thunder, it’s breaking glass! (Sounds of breaking glass and thunder) —The mirror is in a thousand pieces. Boys, the invention is no more. There’s nothing left but splinters. —Listen, I hear something. —The mirror, the mirror on the wall Has told something, has told all. Has told to each one his fate Some was small and some was great. It can tell but of this class Then it must return to glass. Mirror, Mirror, on the wall Has brought news of one and all. CURTAIN Watch that spoon in your coffee, George! Bob McGowan, Hervey Daigle, Vera Naglieri, and George Starr are appar- ently enjoying lunch in the tea room. Ask Charles Hayward “What is it?” He should know. “It’s” the result of one of his nightmares. Ben Pacitti is helping Charles to clean up, while Bud Hammond watches to be sure they clean all the paste from the floor. @mm™m™ Don’t you admire that “housewifely” look on Mr. Plaus, Mr. and Mr. O’Brien? Hesse class will We, the class of 1950, residing at Trade High School in the county of Hampden and the State of Massachusetts, being of sound mind and body and disposing memory do make, ordain, and publish this to be our last will and testament, hereby revoking all former wills and codicils by us made. 1. To Mr. Garvey, our new principal, we have the honor of being the first class to graduate under his guidance. To him we leave our deepest gratitude for all the encouragement and help given to us during the school year. To Mrs. Ells we leave our thanks for her untiring efforts and constant help in all our school activities. 2. To our patient and long suffering advisers, we leave an all expense, prepaid trip to the most remote regions of Siberia. Here they can make a normal recovery from their nervous breakdown caused by a year of close association with the class of 1950. McLaughlin from Electric Shop leaves them his newly invented sun lamp along with a can of electricity. He guarantees warmth and a sunburn within a quarter of a second. Hazel Crow] donates two coats made from electric blankets complete with a thermostat. How about another can of electricity, McLaughlin? Hervey Daigle from Print has arranged to have the Craftsman, with all the latest gossip of the class of ’51, flown to them by carrier pigeon. 3. The Bakery boys leave their caps to the Millinery girls in order that they may be remodeled for next year’s bakers. A few feathers and flowers are suggested for the decorative effect. 4. To the future girls of Mrs. Eastman’s typing classes, we leave squeakless desk drawers. We don’t want them to be caught opening said drawers . 5. To Mr. Plaus we leave a pair of spiked shoes which we hope he will use to good advantage in the next student-faculty softball game. 6. We leave to Sam D’Angelo and June Augustina the lovers’ lane trampled by Carl Standen and Barbara Pfisterer. 7. To Mr. Wougick we leave two batons constructed of rubber which will not crack, chip, or break; and for his trumpet, a portable stand. We feel that he needs all these articles for the direction of the band. 8. Roger Bergeron leaves his skill and ability to get up and stay on the third floor to the “Sheet Metal Romeos”, Lou Jarvis and Larry Sweetmen. 9. To Mr. Harry Cramer we leave a rubber block. He can bang all he wants on this without awakening the sleeping beauties of his future senior classes. 10. To Mrs. Simes we leave a self-running piano, so that she can have an ac- companist and at the same time direct the glee club. 11. George Starr leaves his band uniform to Arthur Augusto in order that next year he will be the answer to what the well dressed man in uniform will wear. Along with his uniform goes George’s private formula for tooth paste. We don’t want his beautiful smile and flashing teeth to be lost ‘to the band. 12. The Senior Class leaves to the junior athletes, a genuine beaver diet con- sisting of vitamin B wood and an injection of jet propulsion so that they will win all their games. 13. Leo Lemoine leaves his pre-school hours, seven to eight, to another morn- ing glory, Larry Sweetman. This time is to be spent in Mrs. Ells’ office for doing deeds not mentionable. 14. To Mr. Hesse, who wouldn’t part with his super-deluxe 1938 Hudson for even a 1951 Cadillac, we leave a few minor items to help keep his car on four wheels; a roll of scotch tape to secure the engine in place, a bottle of cabinet shop’s perfumed fish glue to keep all the parts together; for the repairs of his upholstery we leave him a needle and thread and four yards of red and white striped awning cloth; from the radio shop there is a radar set to give him advance warning of ap- proaching danger, “The Trade Women Drivers”. In conclusion, we think we should leave him a new car. 15. To Mr. Vyska, we leave a peach basket which ought to improve his fielding when he stars on the faculty baseball team. 16.

The soccer team leaves to Mr. McGibney a winning team for next year 5a also the opposing teams’ scores. 18. Barbara King leaves to all the sweethearts of the Junior Class a sign to put on the third tree in front of the school which will read “The Matrimonial Bureau Where True Love Meets. Hours 7:30 to 8:00 o’clock before school”. This will keep the location sacred for all future Trade High matrimonial possibilities. 19. Albert Allen wills his green shirt to anyone who can catch him without it. All of his shocks in Electric Shop are to become the property of Charlie Barber. 20.

Joe Veteramo leaves his drafting table near the window to John “Lover” Barney, so that he can gaze at all the girls during second lunch. 26. Joseph Adams and Roland Savoie leave their ability to skip classes to Ronald Lake and John Markowiec. Go to it, boys—but watch your step—Joe and Roland got caught. 27. Bill Scholes leaves to any member of the junior class, all his rackets in hopes that he or she may get more enjoyment out of their Senior year at Trade High. 28. To Miss Tarr, the necktie rooter, we leave thirteen illuminated neckties to pass out to the lucky juniors who prefer to be sporty rather than to sport a tie. For display purposes Leodore Phaneuf, Herbert Sturm and Elio Viecelli leave a pre- fabricated tie rack so that said ties may be displayed for instructional purposes. 29. Nick Slepchuck leaves to Ted Plumb’s next year’s football squad, one hun- dred thirty-five pounds of dynamite and muscle, Leon Kalesnick. 30.

Beauty Culture leaves to Miss Bransfield all the empty Toni kits which the class has used. Also the convincing arguments which accompanied the use of them. 33. To the most talkative member of the junior class, Johnny Dalzova, Dolores Tergliafero leaves her ability to talk about anything, nothing or something. He doesn’t need it, but he’ll use it anyway, and it will help his line. 34. In order that every member of the Beauty Culture, Medical and Dental Assisting classes may have spotless and the whitest of white shoes, Ray LaBonte, Odbur Newth, and Paul Bannon, the mastermind inventors, leave their automatic slot machine perfumed shoe whitener. No auto boys allowed. 35. Annie Bell Sharpe leaves a new sign to take the place of the words of wisdom which have encouraged the Power Machine girls so many years. They have modern- ized the sign, “A Good Worker Like a Good Pair of Scissors Shuts Up When She Is Working” to read “Button Your Lip”. 36. Hazel Crow] leaves boxing gloves with magnetized thumbs to Joyce Gonyea for the purpose of picking up pins in Miss Mezzacappa’s class. 37.

Bill Mumford leaves his own short wave T. V. set to all the traffic officers who are stationed at lonely spots in the corridors. 39. Bob Rowland leaves to bashful Robert Vevier all the telephone numbers which he accumulated during his corridor sessions behind his little desk in the corner. 40. To Bill Truesdell, junior racketeer, we leave the knack of knowing. what is going to happen before it happens so he can be there when it happens. 41. To Morton Downey who hums all day and far into the night “A Lovely Bunch of Coconuts”—yes—we leave him a bunch of coconuts. 42. To Mr. Plumb, the proud owner of a new 1949 station wagon, we make a valuable bequest. Since we know that this car must last him another century, we leave him a waterproof plastic tent complete with burglar alarm. 43. Walter James leaves six ounces of his excess weight to Charlie Barber. Charlie may not need it, but Walter wants him to have it. 44. The following couple leaves together: Hazel Crowl and Bill Scholes. 45. Finally, the Seniors would like to leave their dreams of what might be to the Juniors: longer gym periods; shorter class periods; a coffee hour every morning at ten; refreshments to be served at all Senior Class meetings; full length mirrors in all third floor corridors for the girls; free newspapers with a period for their reading; a contract with Miss Mazzucelli to furnish custom tailored dress suits to Seniors for next year’s prom, complete with non-bulging shirts, wrinkle-proof trousers, non- skid shoes and correctly folded handkerchiefs for all the well-dressed Juniors. Also ten free lessons on how to get enough to eat at the Senior Class Banquet. 46. In witness hereof, we subscribe our name, affix our seal, and swear this to be our last will and testament on the fifteenth day of June, in the year of our Lord, One Thousand Nine Hundred and Fifty.

Mr. Harry LaBroad, bowling enthusiast and a member of the faculty bowling team, is the coach. His boys have rolled them- selves to top place in the pin contest. At the end of the first round, when the standings were computed, Trade was the victor with seventeen wins and three losses. Charles Jutras, a newcomer to Trade, has the highest average of 105. In a practice string, he rolled 160. The LaValley brothers are outstanding with 97 averages. John Dalzovo, star actor of the Trade Show, is on his way to become a star bowler.

Tech, Classical, and Trade were members of the Western Massachu- setts Interscholastic Hockey League. Games were played Saturday afternoons at the Eastern States Coliseum. Interest in the game at Trade was very high, but the squad lacked experienced forwards. Defensively the team did a good job with goalie Doug Rae and defense- men Jim Rae and Bob Lambert doing yeoman work. Steady improvement was noticed in the calibre of play as the season progressed. All members of the squad have at least one more year of hockey at Trade. The team was coached by Mr. ‘Tom Collins and managed by Bob Schreiber.

Another yard gained. football As usual, Trade started the season of 1949 football practice with only a few regulars from the previous season. In only twelve days of practice Coach Ted Plumb had to build a completely new line. The backfield fared somewhat better, since three players were back again. At the start of the season, forty-seven boys were in uniform, but of this number only thirty boys proved that they really wanted to play football and could be de- pended upon. It was the hard work and school spirit of this group that gave Trade the best season it has enjoyed in the last six years, with a record of four wins, one tie and two losses. Our team fared well, being runner-up for the Western Massachu- setts Class B title. TRADE 31, WILLIAMSTOWN 7 Trade was unconquerable when we met Williamstown as our first opponent of the season. With both brilliant offensive and defensive power, our strong Trade High eleven walked away with a victory. We were off to a fast start with Bernie Bickford and “‘Sugie” Olmstead each scoring two touchdowns. Leon Kalesnik and Bill Moyer were responsible for breaking up many plays and engineering backfield strategy. TRADE 20, DALTON 7 The Beavers met Dalton in the first game under the arc lights at Pynchon Park. Although the half ended in a 7 to 7 tie, the Plumbmen went out in front by scoring in the third and fourth periods. Nick Slepchuk paved the way for the first touchdown by recovering a fumble. In a spectacular run, Bernie Bickford carried the ball to pay dirt for the first score. Alfredo Olmstead and Red Robitaille were responsible for the other two tallies. TRADE 7, ENFIELD 7 The Trade Beavers brushed aside all predictions by tieing Enfield High 7 to 7 in the third game of the season. In the second period, Kippy Turner received the Enfield punt on the forty-four yard line and brought it back to the two, where on the next play, Leo Lemoine passed the pigskin to Red Robitaille in the end zone. Enfield scored in the last period to tie up the game. TRADE 0, WEST SPRINGFIELD 33 With the Blue and Gold as underdog, the highly powered West Side eleven zoomed to a 33 to 0 victory at Pynchon Park. Although players like Bill Moyer, Leon Kalesnik, Red Robitaille, and Nick Slepchuk were on their toes, the West Side proved to be too strong. Opportunities for our team to score came twice, but in spite of superior efforts on the part of our boys, we failed to make a single score. TRADE 6, PALMER 0 Trade proved to Palmer that we were a hard team to beat as we came out in front, 6 to 0. Leo Lemoine ripped off gains of twenty-two and ten yards, and then climaxed it by throwing an eighteen yard aerial pass to Red Robitaille for the score. Palmer threatened to score a few times but met a strong forward wall in the Trade line. TRADE 6, CLASSICAL 0 The Beavers again proved the predictors wrong as we handed Classical a 6 to 0 setback. The touchdown came quickly after Carroll Willey intercepted a pass and ran it back to the Classical twenty-five yard line. Red Robitaille picked up eighteen yards in two carries, and Kip Turner took to the air with a payoff pass to Nick Slep- chuk in the end zone. Trade was one play ahead of Classical all through the game. TRADE 9, CATHEDRAL 14 When the Plumbmen met their strongest opponent, Cathedral, we gave them an unexpectedly hard game. Leo Lemoine and “Sugie”’ Olmstead ripped off long gains, and Kippy Turner threw some good passes, completing most of them. Trade showed a good pass defense as well as a strong line. The score does not reveal the good teamwork our boys displayed. Kneeling: Robert Gorman, George DeVerry, Allan DeVerry, Richard Stevens, George St. Cyr, Carlo Cecchini.

The basketball twins, Rudy and Bill Will it, or won’t it? Pardon me, if I seem to bump you basketball The first call for basketball candidates was issued on November 15, 1949. It was evident that much work was to be done since four of last year’s starting five were among the missing. Of the forty boys reporting for basketball, twenty-five players were retained on the squad. Girard, the one remaining regular along with Troutman, who entered Trade in time to play the last three games of 1948-49 sea- son, were to form the nucleus of the varsity. Up from last year’s Junior Varsity were Carroll Willey, Leo Lemoine, Robert Hoffman, and Clifford Turner. New comers who looked promising were Bill Moyer, Benny Shay, Richie White and Ben Josey. The squad showed lack of experience and team play at the start of the season, but improved by leaps and bounds until they finally developed into a fine basketball team. The main reasons for the success of this years’ team were the team play and the excellent spirit of the squad as a whole. TRADE 66, WESTFIELD TRADE 27 Trade opened the 1949-50 basketball season with an overwhelming victory against Westfield Trade. Most of the game was one sided as the Beavers ran rough- shod over their opponents. “Kippy” Turner, “Rudy” Troutman, and “Bud” Girard all hit double figures 21, 18, 12 respectively. In the back court Bill Moyer and Carroll Willey played good defense. Every man on the Trade team saw action in the contest. TRADE 39, MONSON 20 A second victory was scored for Trade at the Monson Gym. It took the Beavers some time to become used to the small size of the Monson court. Rudy Troutman excelled in all phases of the game. Not only was he high scorer, but he took three quarters of the rebounds. TRADE 71, MONSON 41 Trade met Monson in the home court and outscored, outplayed, and outfought them with an impressive victory of 71 to 41. Everyone was in the act with “Kippy” Turner, Carroll Willey, and “Bud” Girard playing a good floor game. High scorers were Rudy with twenty-three points, “Keystone” with eleven, and Willie Raye with nine. Coach Plumb sent in his substitutes in the last quarter in order that every man could have a chance to see action. TRADE 20, TECH 57 The first defeat of the season was experienced by the Beavers as they were “downed” by the fighting Tigers of Tech. Trade was ahead in the first four minutes of the game. Then the roof fell in as “Lefty” Ferrero of Tech made nine straight points. High scorers for Trade were Troutman and Lemoine, while the stars for Tech were Ferrero, Jones, and Eady. TRADE 42, CATHEDRAL 53 Trade pulled a big surprise and almost an upset as Cathedral was victor with a margin of eleven points. It was Trade’s game in the first period with a 13 to 9 score, and it was 29 all at the half. Cathedral began to rally in the second half, and Trade did not have a chance to make the necessary points. The Beaver quintet wes led in their scoring by Rudy Troutman who was high scorer for both teams with 18 points. Frank Korbut and Paul Brissette led Cathedral to their hard fought victory. TRADE 51, ENFIELD 43 Enfield High gave Trade its fourth victory of the season. The Beavers looked rugged in their passing and dribbling. They shot more than they passed, and played offensive basketball all the way. Troutman and Lemoine were the “big wheels” as they rolled up twenty-seven points. Willey and Turner were responsible for fourteen of the points while Bond and Sopol scored 11 and 10 points for Enfield. TRADE 47, COMMERCE 29 Rudy Troutman led the Plumb men to an impressive victory over Commerce. The start was slow, but in the second quarter the Beavers left the floor with a 27 to 13 lead. They held this lead for the rest of the playing time and were victorious to the tune of 47 to 29. Troutman and Ersing were the high men of the evening. Troutman’s twenty-five points tops this seasons’ record in the city matches TRADE 25, HOLYOKE TRADE 27 The Beavers lost an exciting out-of-town game to Holyoke. The lead was Trade’s with a margin of ten points until the third quarter. Fighting every inch of the way, Holyoke made the extra points for a 27 to 25 victory. TRADE 58, HOLYOKE TRADE 25 After suffering a loss from Holyoke Trade, the Beavers came back and ran off a two to one victory in a second meeting in Trade’s Gym. A 25 to 14 half time lead was made by our cagers, and to this was added twenty-three more points before the final whistle blew. Rudy Troutman was again high man. “Bud” Girard scored twelve points and played good defensive ball as he checked Nadeau, Holyoke’s tricky left handed star. TRADE 27, CLASSICAL 47 Classical Bulldogs made and kept a marginal lead in a fast moving game which spelled defeat for the Beavers. Ronnie Clark, star center for Classical, threw twenty-one points and led the scorers on both teams. Willey played good defensive ball, and Troutman worked hard to score fourteen points. TRADE 28, CHICOPEE 41 Chicopee had the advantage as they played man-to-man defense in their small court. ‘The first quarter was fast and even until Chicopee went on a scoring spree in the last quarter. Stadnicki was “the boy” of the game with Troutman his close second. Good defensive ball was the keynote throughout the encounter. TRADE 22, CATHEDRAL 54 The Beavers were off to a slow start as they fought a hard game with the Cathe- dral Panthers. The first half gave the opponents a lead of 30 to 9. Fighting all the way, Trade made up part of the score but did not rally for a victory. Willey and Troutman shone on the defense. TRADE 56, CHICOPEE 37 Trade gained revenge against Chicopee for the defeat handed them at the beginning of the season. Troutman again was high scorer with eighteen points. Lemoine came into his own with eleven points. Trade led 31 to 14 at the half. Turner Willey and Moyer shone defensively, as Trade battled their opponents on even terms throughout the second half. TRADE 46, TECH 43 For the first time in eight years, Trade in a most spectacular game, was able to overcome a strong Tech quintet. The highly favored Tigers were outplayed, out- fought, and outscored in a fast and exciting game which was the greatest upset in many seasons. “Keystone” Moyer played his best game of the season with fifteen points to his credit. Rudy was the star of the evening with his control of the back- boards, his score of eighteen points, and his ability to hold Eady to four points. Willey, Lemoine, Turner, and Girard played well, and through their excellent team work brought Trade to victory. Students and faculty of other schools cheered the game Beavers on to victory. Coach Plumb was the man of the hour. As for the team, Mr. Garvey treated them to banana splits on the way home. TRADE 68, CHESTER 35 Trade played an offensive game in the first half and reached a 33 to 22 score. In the second half with strong defensive play added to their unbeatable offense, an impressive score of 68 to 35 was the result. Leo Lemoine was the star of the game as he netted twenty-three points. He just couldn’t miss as he threw ‘basket after basket from all sections of the court. TRADE 63, WESTFIELD TRADE 34 Springfield, playing without the services of its high scoring center, Rudy Trout- man, submerged Westfield Trade 63 to 34. Lemoine, who has been sharing scoring honors with Troutman, accounted for seventeen points followed by Moyer and Turner with twelve and eleven. Brown was Westfield’s top man with thirteen points. TRADE 33, CLASSICAL 37 Minus their stars, Classical and Trade waged an even battle in the last game of the season. Classical played without Ronnie Clark and Jerry Palmer while Trade operated without its ace center Troutman. The honors for the Beavers were shared by Lemoine and Turner as they scored thirty-two of the thirty-three points. Equally matched in fighting strength and determination, both teams showed their ability in team work and sportsmanship. see First row: John Markowiec, Thomas Gordon, John Fernandes, Richard Arthur, Samuel Aykanian, Pasquale Rondinelli, Samuel Vatrano, Roger Savoie, William Daley, William Chaput.

With a few good breaks, several scoreless ties might have gone in favor of Trade. It was a young and inexperienced team, one which came along with every game. They were playing much better soccer at the end of the season than at the beginning. With most of the boys coming back for the 1950 season, Trade’s outlook is brighter. TRADE 1, ALUMNI 0 With only two of last year’s team members returned, Trade opened the season with a win over the alumni. Captain Bob Benson and Bill Pegorara were members of the ’48 squad. TRADE 1, WEST SPRINGFIELD 3 Trade lost its first game against an experienced and veteran West Side team. The game was even most of the way until West Springfield scored in the last period. The Trade goal was scored by Captain Benson. TRADE 2, ALUMNI 1 Trade won its second game over the alumni with a tight 2 to 1 victory. Santi- nello of the alumni was outstanding on the defense, as was George Vumbaco. Bob Benson scored the winning goal in the last few minutes. TRADE 0, TECH 2 An inexperienced Trade team played well against a strong Tech team but lost 2 to 0. Bob Benson was out for the season with a broken leg received in this game. Bill Pegorara was outstanding on the defense for Trade. TRADE 0, COMMERCE 0 This game should have been Trade’s! The ball was in Commerce’s territory most of the time, but Trade lacked the scoring punch to win. The loss of the Bea- ver’s best scorer, Bob Benson hurt Trade. TRADE 0, CLASSICAL 0 Another scoreless tie. One of the best games of the season was played, a hard fought, defensive battle. Both goal tenders made many sensational stops. TRADE 0, TECH 3 Tech’s city champions proved too strong for a game Trade team. ‘Trade played well defensively but could not score. TRADE 0, COMMERCE 2 Trade outplayed Commerce most of the way but again lacked a scoring punch to win the game. Roger Savoie played a great game for Trade on defense. TRADE 0, CLASSICAL 0 This was the second scoreless tie with Classical, and another good game on defense. Bill Pegorara played well for Trade, as did goalie, Roger Savoie. re ho ceesccitoie sStmmcake pseniaitie wnat Kneeling: Edward Ecchio, Joseph Lovotti, Leo Holzman, Clifford Turner Edward Landers, Roger Savoie, Michael Bavaro.

Edward Ecchio uncorks a fast one before hundreds of enthus- iastic fans (?). he r You'll never make it! Excuse it, please. Oops! that one just plain slipped through my fingers! baseball The 1949 baseball season was a successful one, considering that only four vet- erans returned from the previous year. The boys played good ball. Bob Forziati did most of the pitching for the team, and doubled in the outfield when he wasn’t on the mound. The catcher was Alfredo Olmstead, a veteran of the 48 season. Every game saw an improvement in his hitting, and at the end of the season he was one of the leading hitters of the nine. Two other veterans who helped win several games were Stan Witowski and Carroll Willey, clutch players. New comers who will play on the 1950 team, are Frank Lundrigan and Bill Pegorara. Coach Ed McGibney is pinning his hopes for a good season on his veteran players and the good record made last spring. TRADE 3, CATHEDRAL 9 April twenty-first at Blunt Park saw the opening game with Cathedral, in whom Trade met a strong opponent. The Panthers scored four runs in the first inning. “Spunker” Witowski collected a double and a single. “Whiz” Bissonette added to the score with a brace of singles. Cathedral’s team was a hard one with which to start the season. TRADE 7, HOLYOKE TRADE 4 Trade defeated Holyoke Trade’s nine, 7 to 4, at Blunt Park. Bill Pegorara was the star of the game. He hit a home run in the seventh inning to settle the issue for the Beavers. TRADE 2, CATHEDRAL 7 Bob Forziati and Ed Dunn, a Cathedral player, pitched scoreless ball for three innings. Stan Witowski connected with a brace of singles and Frank Lundrigan and Bill Pegoraro each collected a hit. TRADE 9, CHICOPEE 7 Frank Lundrigan, first baseman, lashed a single and knocked in two men in the sixth inning to give Trade a 9 to 7 triumph over Chicopee Trade. The score was tie, 7 to 7, when Frank came through with his game-winning blow. Carroll Wil- ley banged three singles and “Sugie” connected for two hits to lead the attack. TRADE 4, MONSON 3 The Beavers edged Monson High when Joe Kabarsky knocked in the winning run in the last of the sixth. Bob “Rapid” Forziati helped our cause by allowing seven hits and striking out nine. TRADE 2, TECH 9 The Beavers lost a hard fought game to Tech after holding a lead of 2 to 1 for four innings. “‘Sugie” Olmstead collected a brace of singles. Carroll Willey pulled the spectacular play of the day by making a back hand stab of a hard curving liner. TRADE 6, CLASSICAL 9 Trade made a bid to tie the count with a three run outburst in the last of the sixth, mainly on the strength of a couple of wild pitches by our opponents. The rally fell a run shy, and Classical went into the seventh ahead 7 to 6. The loss of “Whiz” Bissonette was a hard blow to the Trade team. He was one of the leading pitchers of the season. - TRADE 5, COMMERCE 1 For three innings this game was a scoreless pitcher’s duel between our Bob Forziati and Clarence Buzzell of Commerce. In the last of the fourth, the Beavers sewed up the game with four runs. Forziati, pitching superb ball, struck out ten and allowed only four hits. Carroll Willey and Whiz Bissonette did the stick work. Wil- ley was responsible for three hits and stole four bases while Dick Bissonette collected two hits and stole two bases. TRADE 16, WESTFIELD TRADE 4 Westfield was subdued by the Beavers by a score of 16 to 4 with “Spunker” Witowski taking the batting honors with a single, double and a home run. Ed Landers, a freshman, pitched perfect ball, striking out eleven and allowing only four hits. TRADE 7, CLASSICAL 16 Trade led 4 to 0 at one stage of the game. Bob Forziati was pitching perfect ball until the roof fell in. Sugie Olmstead collected three singles, and Kip Turner hit a brace of singles. TRADE 9, WESTFIELD TRADE 2 By swamping Westfield Trade 9 to 2, our team maintained its undefeated record with outside teams. A big third inning paved the way for a Beaver victory which followed a three run outburst, in the first frame. TRADE 10, COMMERCE 11 The Beavers played a hard fought game only to have Commerce come up with one valuable run in the tenth inning. “Kippy” Turner featured by collecting a single and a triple, and he also scored three runs. Likewise, Bill Keough was res- ponsible for a single, a double and a score of two runs. Carroll Willey, fast man on the bases, also brought in three runs. TRADE 15, CHICOPEE 5 Trade High won over Chicopee by a score of 15 to 5. In the second inning, 12 runs swamped the Vocational tossers. Bill Pegorara led the slugfest for the victors with five hits, one a double, in five trips to the plate. Stan Witowski featured in all around play for Trade while Bill Keough was also impressive at the bat with three hits.

Twenty-two enthusiastic boys formed the track team which engaged in three dual and one inter-school meets. In spite of an inexperienced team, Trade did manage to win the meet with West Springfield. We hope that interest in track will continue this year, because with last year’s experience Trade’s team should afford a healthy opposition to all opponents. TRADE 31, CLASSICAL 68 Trade’s new team was no match for Classical’s veterans. Richard Ouimette was high scorer for the Beavers by taking the one hundred twenty yard low hurdles, second place in the javelin throw and third in the discus throw, for a total of nine points. Jackson came in first in the one hundred yard dash, and Bill Scholes won the mile. The shot put was won by Bob Garelli. TRADE 63, WEST SPRINGFIELD 36 Everyone did his part as the Beavers took an easy victory over West Springfield. Bob Garelli was a double winner in the shot put and discus throw as well as being the scoring leader of the day. The Beaveres took seven events out of the eleven. INTERSCHOOL MEET: TRADE 12, TECH 65, CLASSICAL 44 The Beavers tried hard but Tech and Classical proved their experience. “Carrot” Lopes came through in the javelin throw and was the only Beaver to take first place. Jack Beaudry was a close second in the 440 yard dash with “Fighting” Garelli taking second place in the shot put contest. TRADE 42, TECH 57 The Beavers gave the Western Massachusetts champs quite a scare in closing the ’49 track season. Bob Garelli, for the second time this year, was a double winner. He took the shot put and the discus throw for ten points. The other winners for the Beavers were: Richard Ouimette in the 120 yard low hurdles, Jack Beaudry won the 440 yard dash, and Walter Dansereau, the 880 yard dash. The winning of five of eleven events showed that the Beavers were a much stronger team that they were at the beginning of the season, interdepartment softball Of no little importance to the Trade High sports program is the intershop softball competition. In varsity baseball there is opportunity for only twenty boys to participate, whereas nearly one hundred boys from ten shops took part in the intershop baseball tournament. One could watch four games being played simul- taneously on the diamonds at the rear of the school. Print shop was the undisputed winner, having won all its games. Sheet Metal was runner-up, while Draft-Pattern placed third. At a special assembly held June 17, the following boys from Print Shop re- ceived small letter awards: Captain William Moyer, Gaeten Arminio, Samuel Arkanian, James Bryce, William Canton, Robert Consolini, Thomas Economidy, Howard Koch, Robert McCarthy, Wesley McMahon, and Clifford Phelps. Mr. Martin Bloom presented the captain with the softball plaque which Print Shop keeps for the year. Since the printers have won for two consecutive years, it will remain in their permanent possession if they win this spring! Print Shop’s reward for winning the intramural was the privilege of playing the faculty All Stars. Both teams being undefeated, a spectaular battle was in the offing. There was unexcelled teamwork among the faculty in committing such minor errors as: hitting into double plays, striking out, dropping fly balls, missing grounders, and throwing wild pitches. “Scooter” Perry, “Flash” Dryer, “Kid” McGibney, and “Speed Ball” Plumb were the stars of the afternoon. So many runs were scored on each side that the final score remains to this day a deep, dark mystery.

Interest and excitement were high as the twelve well balanced teams ended the season with a triple tie. In the final game, Print Shop was the winner over Auto Body by a score of 41 to 36. This is the second consecutive year for Print Shop to capture the plaque. If they win next year, it is theirs to keep.

CHARLES COOMBS 1887 1950 The sudden death of Mr. Coombs on March 4, 1950, was a sad shock to both students and faculty. For twenty-two years, Mr. Coombs has been a member of our faculty. His fine personal qualities were evident to all who knew him. No one will forget his sincerity, his kindliness nor his unassuming nature and good judgment. With his passing, the school has lost a fine instructor and friend. Mr. Burridge displays a hat (not to be worn) which was presented to him at the banquet given in — his honor, last October.
