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?

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. Leo Deslauriers leaves to Mrs. Ells, a typed list of the telephone numbers of all the band members, so that with her help they will arrive on time for school. 17. 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. Irene Walker leaves her many activities to anyone who needs an excuse to get out of class.
