The good fellowship and many enjoyable events we have shared as classmates will soon be a part of the past. Now, with this happy period so vivid in our minds, we have atte npted to retain it, so that through the years to come, the spirit of our youth will live again in memory. e are now about to leave the shelter of St. Mary s and assume the responsibilities of manhood and woman¬ hood. We shall separate, each taking his own path, but all of us enfolded securely by the Blue Mantle of Mary, s hall be bound together in mutual devotion to our school. Aside from its sentimental value we sincerely hope that this, the last unified effort of the Class of Nineteen Hundred and Forty-Eight may be a fitting tribute to our¬ selves, our Alma Mater, our Blessed Mother, and Our God. His Excellency Most Reverend Thomas Mary O’Leary, D. D. Bishop of Springfield edlcation We, the Class of 1948 , with gratitude and filial devotion, dedicate this edition of the BLUE MANTLE to OUR PARENTS, LIVING AND DEAD whose love and guidance have been to us, ever a source of inspiration. To their un¬ selfish sacrifices we owe this opportunity to obtain a religious education thereby adding our names and achievements to the glorious history of our school. Rising pure and straight towards heaven is the Irish Round Tower in St. Mary s Cemetery. Like a finger of stone it points the way enduringly to our eternal home, our goal and that of our parents also. May Our Lady, Tower of Ivory, enfold in her Blue Mantle forever, our beloved parents! The Inspiration of o ifVary s leadership The Blessed Mother of God whose own Divine Son ordained the first priests of the Church over nineteen hundred years ago, has bestowed upon their successors, graces in such lavish abundance that she has merited the title. Queen of the Clergy. Is it any wonder then, that our pastor Father Foran and his assistants at St. Mary’s, have taken the Queen of Heaven as their special Protectress? In Our Lady, Fr. Foran has had an inspiring example of leadership. By his kindly manner and his sympathetic interest in the problems we have had to face in our school life, he has truly endeared himself to all of us. By his words, but more im¬ pressively by his deeds, he has shown a deep and abiding love for the Mother of God. “To Jesus through Mary” has been the motto of his life. Father Lacey, our Spiritual Advisor, Father Carberry, our Athletic Director and Father Fla¬ herty with his altar boys, have displayed in all their priestly functions, the intimate part that Mary plays in their daily life. May she continue to pro¬ tect and inspire them in the future! Fr. Foran Celebrating His Birthday Mass of Thanksgiving, assisted by St. Mary’s School, October 21, 1947. % . ' 7 • -y. ■ rl fr.

Oh, BLESSED MARY, Who at the gracious invitation of heaven became the Handmaid of the Lord, watch over and bless these holy virgins who have abandoned all else to become Spouses of Jesus Christ Your Son, and Sisters of St. Joseph, Your Guardian and Erotector. Qyive (i aria As the theme for the 1948 BLUE MANTLE we have chosen Ave Maria — the heavenly salutation of the Archangel Gabriel to Mary, the Virgin Mother of God. We have honored Our Lady under her glorious titles, showing the powerful influence she exerts over her children at St. Mary’s, as a Mother ever loving and kind. We have selected this theme, because the Ave Maria is a symbol of St. Mary’s spirit. The happiest moments of our school life are linked to¬ gether by the beautiful words of the Ave Maria into a treasured song of memories, which will sing always a joyful melody in our hearts. Hail Mary — Patroness of our school! Through¬ out our High School years Mary has watched over us and guided us as a mother should. With outstretched hands she has shielded us from every danger, drawing us closer day by day, to the Infant Jesus, Her Divine Son. The statue of the Blessed Mother has been en¬ shrined in the Chapel of St. Mary’s Church, in the halls and classrooms of our school, which bears her blessed name. Because of the inspiration, love and devotion that the good Sisters and priests at St. Mary’s have shown towards the Blessed Virgin, we have taken her for our own and enshrined her in our hearts as well. Our first act each day is to offer our prayers, works and sufferings to Jesus through the Imma¬ culate Heart of Mary, and we never forget to call upon Our Lady with the sweet words of the Ave Maria. Our school day is crowded with books and study, but each hour we pause and salute Mary with the Ave Maria. At noon we recite the Angelus which honors the Incarnation of Jesus, heralded by Gabriel’s words — Ave Maria. At the close of the day we thank Mary for her aid and protection with the repetition of the Ave Maria. That is why whenever we shall say or hear these words — be it in prayer, poem or a song — we shall always recall the happy years that we have spent here at St. Mary’s. Since this angelic greeting was first spoken to the Virgin Mary in the obscure town of Nazareth in Galilee, its message has been carried to the ends of the earth. At every moment of the day, in hundreds of languages, and in every part of the globe, the Ave Maria is being recited. The most gifted composers of all time have taken the Ave Maria for a musical motif and about it they have created songs of sur¬ passing beauty and lasting merit. But of all these great classics, the favorite of the class of 1948 is Gounod’s renowned Ave Maria. It is this song that we have chosen as one of the musical selections for our Graduation Exercises. With fervent voices, we shall call upon Mary to be our Guardian and our Guide in the battle of life as she has been, our Ad¬ vocate during our school years at St. Mary’s. O Mother of God! accept our yearbook as a testi¬ mony of our unwavering fidelity and devotion to you. May the sentiments that we have expressed within its pages be our rule of life wherever our wandering paths may take us. May we stay true to the faith of your Son and may you dear Mother of God — Pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death. Amen.” tu Ml OR (Aiftaria, Seat of Wisdom ! Oh, LADY OF GOOD COUNSEL, living taber¬ nacle of the Eternal Word and Spouse of the Holy Spirit, who gloriotisly fulfilled your special calling to bring God to men, fill us with wisdom to know our proper state in life, and gtiide us along the road that leads to life everlasting.

Qlass History We, the Class of 1948, leave this history behind us as a record of the numberless achievements of the greatest class ever to graduate from beneath the portals of Saint Mary’s High School. Outstanding in every field, we know our history will never be equaled by any other. Entering St. Mary’s on a bright September day in 1944, we left behind us the memories of Grammar school, and before us lay four of the happiest years of our lives. Getting right down to business we elected Class Officers: President — John Summers Vice President — Paul Seaver Secretary — William McGee Treasurer — Donald Sayles We were represented in Intramural Football by a Frosh” aggregation which had a fair season winning two and dropping three games. In November we had our first taste of Oratoricals with Paul Seaver, Richard Cormier, Joseph King, Claire Brady and Marie Lucier chosen as finalists. When the call for basketball candidates was issued our class was well represented by no less than four freshmen hoopsters. Fifty-six Freshmen couples made their social debut” at our first Junior Prom and thanks to us it was a complete success. Baseball season rolled around and a freshman battery of Sayles and Johnson helped win many games for the Blue and White. June came all too soon and we buckled down to our final exams and crossed our fingers. After that rugged week, we stored our books away for the next class and bid fond adieu to S. M. A. until the follow¬ ing year. The summer slipped quickly by and with the coming of Autumn we proceeded to write another chapter in our still young High School careers. A big event in any class is the election of Class Officers. Our wise choices were: President — John Early Vice-President — John Summers Secretary — Marie Kirley Treasurer — Gertrude Bowen The Sophomore class was well represented on St. Mary’s first football team in four years by no less than eight sophs. Paul Seaver, Richard Cormier, and Joseph King were placed on the Diocesan Debating Team where they brought glory to our school as well as to our class. Another winter, another basketball season. Ancf on the team were six Sophomore hoop stars. The last traces of snow on the ground saw can¬ didates for the baseball team striving for Varsity berths. When the final cuts had been made, there were nine Sophomores proudly wearing their blue and white uniforms. June again, exams, and the mellow thrill of being Juniors when we returned the next fall. Another Septernber and we returned as dignified Juniors to add even greater accomplishments to our ever growing history. Selected to represent our class as officers, were: President — Thomas Byrne - Vice President — Joseph Matondi Qlass History Secretary — Helen Sheehan Treasurer — Theresa Lees On the gridiron, twelve Juniors represented our class. Always showing the way in athletics, the Class of ’48 placed nine basketeers on the 1947 edition of the St. Mary’s squad. On February 7, 1947, tfie Juniors held their annual Prom in the High School Auditorium. It was decorated in a Valentine motif in accordance with the time and was attended by nearly one hundred couples who danced till midnight to the floating strains of the music of Ray Frenkel. On May 31, the Seniors had a little fun at the expense of the Juniors. The occasion. Class Day; and did our ears burn!!! All of our secrets we thought had been buried in the backyard, came to life in the form of good-natured jokes. (?) And although we were embarrassed, we must admit we all had a won¬ derful time. We had our revenge at the Junior-Senior Reception, the annual banquet the underclassmen give to the graduating class, giving the Seniors all they had given us, and a little more, too! Our final Big Moment” in our Junior Year was the honor of singing at Graduation, and as we stood there watching the Seniors receiving their diplomas, there was more than one of us who had tears in our eyes, realizing that we were on the last lap of our High School Years. On September 3, 1947, we came back to ' St. Mary’s to climax our High School days and deter¬ mined to bow out with a glorious record of scholastic and athletic achievements. One of our first duties was to elect Class Officers who were to lead us during this Senior Year. The re¬ sults of our elections were: President — Paul Seaver Vice President — William Murphy Secretary — Helen Doherty Treasurer — Kathleen Nudd Under the guidance of John E. Comer, our new coach, we began the 1947 football season and com¬ piled an enviable record of victories. Led by Captain Johnny Summers, there were twelve Seniors on the squad. The Candy Sale is a big event in the lives of the Senior Commercial students and this year, as usual, it went over with a bang. With the proceeds of the sale, a new ediphone and an electric typewriter were purchased. The sale will remain one of the cherished memories of our Senior Year. With Captain Donald Sayles showing the way, the 1948 court season began with nine Senior rep¬ resentatives on the squad. On December 29, in place of the usual Senior Hop, a Christmas Formal was held. Paul Seaver and Helen Doherty were the Chair¬ men in charge. Our last contribution to Saint Mary’s is this Blue Mantle” which is the crowning achievement of our High School Years and which we know will be a lasting monument to the never-to-be-forgotten Class of 1948. June . . . and Graduation. Dressed in resplendent caps and gowns, we walked to receive our diplomas, a little sad in heart and tears in our eyes, for this was the end of our High School careers. The last chapter in our history is written. No longer will the halls echo with our laughter and jokes, for we, the Class of 1948, have graduated. St. Mary’s [yarishioncrs put the Athletic Fiiiul oier the top with a bazaar. Jake” Early enjoys his job of Class Historian. The Class Prophets, M. Fletcher, T. Lees, G. Bowen, B.

A. broad¬ casting from atop the new athletic building at St. Mary’s High School recently donated by the great philanthropist, Robert Larkin. Bob is the manufac¬ turer of Satch” the medicine used by thousands to prevent children of all ages from sucking their fingers. This year of 196 5, the annual New Year’s Eve broadcast will be dedicated to that great, grand, glorious, glamorous and gracious class of 1948, that has certainly proved itself to be the most successful class ever to graduate from St. Mary’s or any other High School. Before proceeding with our program, we will have a brief word from our sponsors. This first portion of our program is brought to you by Knight- Life” Cigarettes, manufactured exclusively by and for Muriel Knight and Betteanne McManus. They are now operating two huge plants, one in Summer¬ ville and one in Careyville. And now to our Quiz program. The sole purpose of this program is to unravel the chequered careers of some of the famous members of the famous class of 1948. GB—Has anyone heard about Dana Davis? MF—O yes, he’s Head Coach at Notre Dame Uni¬ versity, and it’s a funny thing; each year so far, a certain dark-haired girl has tried out for the team. BM—Is Helen still after that guy? TL—I thought Ducky Saylcs was Coach at Notre Dame? GB—He was, but he resigned to become the owner of the Boston Red Sox. This team is being man¬ aged by Brendan Howarth and their Umpire Johnnie Summers, so that you can see which team has the best chance of winning the pen¬ nant this year. MF—I saw Joan Lavigne the other day but did not get a chance to speak to her. Well, Joan is a pretty busy girl these days trying to manage Grant’s and Casey’s at the same time. BM—Doris Bonati and Gloria De Pasqualc invested the first million, which they made as nurses in the Mackey Rest Home for the under-weight, in a super-de-luxe car. Now their Saturday night problem is to get the men instead of the car. TL—Claire Moran now spends the cold winters in Florida with her husband Walter, who runs a branch of his father’s business. They conduct business establishments at Miami and Tampa, where the customers, like Walter, seem to have plenty of money to throw away. GB—Jerry Charest has been assigned to the position of Teacher-Coach at St. Mary’s succeeding Jim Touhey. Poor Jimmy had a heart attack when St. Mary’s won a game with Milford High. Things arc so different since our athletes graduated in 1948. MF—The florist business is so good that Barbara Heron is able to take trips all over the country and lets her assistants run the business. Last month she took a trip to Washington where she met President Paul Seaver; Paul’s first lady is the former Helen Doherty. BM—Between acts at the State Theater, Joe Pagan! entertains the movie-goers with his fine acro¬ batics. Incidentally the candy business of Teresa Lees was so profitable that she was able to buy the State Theater. TL—Joe Matondi has been in the Army for fifteen years and most of that time has been spent in either the hospital or the Guard House. Sf. Mary’s plays host to the St. Stephen’s Debating Team. Worcester-bound for the Freedom Train. ( lass Prophecy GB—Just across from Miller’s Chicken Coop where delicious fried chicken is served, you will find an immense studio which is owned by the great dramatist and elocution teacher, Marie Lucier. GB—Now a brief word from our sponsor, i riple Trouble Bubble Gum” perfected by Betty Muse during her senior year at St. Mary’s. MF—William Murphy is the editor of the bi-monthly magazine, Glamor Girl”. His assistants arc Mariel Bessette, private secretary; Jake” Early and Richard Benoit, chief Journalists. They always had an eye for glamor even in High School BM—Eddie Timlege is now a famous scientist. He is racking his brain trying to f ind a chemical solution that will make all girls blonds. He still has Marie on his mind. TL—By-the-way, what is Marie doing these days? She is at Milford Hospital modeling the latest in doctor’s uniforms. Guess who designed them? ME—Why none other than Mary Hughes, with Gerald Barlow’s help of course. BM—Have you heard about the scandal connected with the Flanigan Cadillac Mfg. Company vs. William Lewis. Corporation lawyer Richard Cormier is the defense counsel and Judge John Clancy presided. Gli—Our next sponsor is Lady Agnes Face Powder made exclusively by Agnes Menard for people with dry skin. TL—George Cormier, million dollar laundry man, has bought a part’ interest in Tom Byrne’s famous Night Club, The Red Barn, on Hart¬ ford Avenue. Head Waiter is Anthony Cerun- dolo. GB—Phyllis Benjamin and Ann Mountain will spon¬ sor this next portion of our program. They are the co-owners of the Whitinsville Town Hall where Richard Sullivan’s band plays every Saturday night for the dances. Betty Pechulis is vocalist for the band which has gained a world-wide fame. BM—Lockheed Manufacturing Company has awak¬ ened to the fact that they cannot succeed without that daredevil of aviation, Jimmy Johnson. He had plenty of practice in High School when he was up in the clouds over Helen Sheehan. MF—Marie Danforth is bookkeeper at a shop called the DeAngclis Beauty Parlor. They are doing a land-office business with Brendan Howarth as their best customer. So don’t let appearances deceive you because when we graduated people said we were a sorry-looking class. Just look at the way we ended up, why no class ever succeeded to such an extent as this one.

A. signing off with the hopes that all will have a happy and prosperous life. Class Will This is the day! You poor Juniors arc going to be sorry that you ever became entangled with the intellectual, and popular members of the most out¬ standing class of 1948. However, before dealing with the ridiculous Juniors we would like to make a few sincere presenta¬ tions. To our beloved Pastor Fr. Foran, we leave a memory of a class whose achievements will never be equaled by any other. We also leave to you our heart¬ felt gratitude for inspiring us to greater heights in our future life. To Fr. Lacey we leave the patience to contend with the so-called Seniors of next year. We also wish to express o ur gratitude for your Friday Morning Talks” which we feel certain will greatly aid us in the battle of life. To Fr. Carberry we leave our thanks for bringing St. Mary’s out of athletic obscurity to the high posi¬ tion that it holds today. To Fr. Flaherty we leave the care of his little angels”, the altar boys, and we hope that you aren’t too heartbroken over the loss of so many servers through graduation. To Sister St. Berchmans we leave our heartfelt thanks for her guidance throughout our high school career. To Sister Rose Concepta and to Sister Elizabeth Mary: We can’t begin to thank you for our most wonderful year at St. Mary’s High School and we sincerely hope that you will forgive us for the trials we have caused you. To all the Sisters who have taught and guided us during our school days, we leave the memories of having taught our class. Some of these recollections are pleasant, others are not, but they are yours. We hope that the pleasant outweigh the sad. To Mr. Comer our coach, who has moulded great athletic teams in all competitive sports, we leave the hope that he will continue his winning ways. — N O W TO THE JUNIORS 111 To William Duggan we leave an invisible cloak, to aid him in evading the Law the next time he and the boys” decide to have some fun” in Whitins- ville. To William Hynes, we leave a life-time subscrip¬ tion to the Milford Daily News in memory of the millions he counted while working there. To John Kellihcr we leave a season pass to the Whitinsville Gym that he may show Catherine Heavey how to play basketball. Making any points. Jack? Class Will To Paul Kittredge, Robert Larkin leaves his nose so that you can bury it in the books you love so well. To Bob Lewis, we leave a trap. That’s one sure way of catching your prey. To Glenn Morse, Paul McKeown leaves his book on Body-Building” so that he may overwhelm Pauline with his Cave-man physique”. To Roy Normandin, John Summers leaves his end position on the football team. We hope for Coach Comer’s sake, that he or some other junior can play ball just half as well. Donald White bestows his height on Norman Pouliot so that he will be able to type without stand¬ ing on a chair. To Lucien Roy we leave a pair of roller skates so when he takes time out of class, he can roll along the corridors instead of walk. To Lester Shea, Gloria DePasquale leaves the Central Alleys’ pool table where he spends many pleasant hours behind the eight ball. To John Sullivan, the class leaves a thousand dollars to buy uniforms for his Milford Tigers Foot¬ ball Team. Perhaps with new suits they can better last year’s record of three wins and twenty-two de¬ feats. To Rose Bousquet, Martina Grady, and Adele Melanson, who have all had love affairs with Mr. Wojonowski, we feel it our duty to inform you that John is now going steady with Eleanor Kozel. Once again the eternal triangle has reared its ugly head in the presence of unsuspecting people. The three involved are John Clancy, Senior Football Star, Frank Kelly, and the one and only Dot Carey. Make up your mind Dottie. Which one is it going to be, Millis’ pride and joy or the Framingham Flash? From here it looks like a very easy choice, for Jack has been won by another lass, or haven’t you heard? To Cecilia Clement, we leave a week’s supply of bus tickets so that she may continue to go up to see Jerry McCarthy, her football idol. To Geraldine Rogers we leave a picture of Captain Sayles so that she may have something to stare at next year. To Lillian Lombardi, Larry Moran leaves his driver’s license and a book entitled How To Drive Safely” in hopes that she will read this book and profit by it. To the Junior boys, Donald Sayles leaves his uni¬ forms in hopes that a Junior will be capable of filling them. This we doubt very much for there is only one ' Ducky” Sayles. To Nancy Allen, John Early leaves some soothing cream to give to her father so that he won’t feel like kicking Jake out of the house when he catches him kissing Nancy Good-Nite”. To Peggy Sullivan we leave a rope so that when she gets within striking distance of Glenn, she may be able to tie him down. To Kenneth Gould, Helen Rand leaves priority on the phone booth at Rice’s Pharmacy so that he may call Anna or have you changed back to Sylvia, Kenneth? To Margaret Byrne, our dainty little cheerleader, we leave some medicine to prevent her catching cold watching Georgie” play football. To Ray Hanlon, Dick Cormier leaves a book entitled Flow To Hook Them”. Dick had a lot of luck but you didn’t. Better read the book before you try again, Ray. To Richard Rae, Richard Sullivan leaves his humor so he can humor his boss and get a raise. To James Enright, we leave you a gold ring with a red stone in the middle to replace the one his girl friend took back. We wonder who she is? How about telling us Jim? To Jane and Jean Cormier we leave two torches and two boxes of matches. Because Jane and Jean are twins, both torches are the same, except for the name inscribed on each, one name is Jimmy” and the other is Frankie”. To Bob Slattery, Robert Larkin leaves his mirror so that he may spend many contented hours in happy bliss with the person he loves most dearly. We the class of 48” do hereby state that this is our last Will and Testament, recorded for ail posterity, and in witness thereof, we do set our seal. CLASS OF 48” MYSTICAL ROSE Oh! Mystical Rose, we beg of thee, Our souls from sin and grief to free; Direct our wandering feet aright, And be Thyself, our own true light. Ave Maria! Oh! Mystical Rose, be our guiding star. Our help, our protection, wherever we are; With kindly eyes, from heaven above Look down on us with patience and love. Ave Maria!! Oh! Mystical Rose, our hearts are all thine. Protect us.

YOUTH IN ACTION oAve Q iftaria, Qause of Our Joy! Oh, Amiable Mother, whose birth announced happiness to the whole world, and whose intan¬ gible but real presence at our school activities was a source of joy, continue to lighten our hearts and cheer our paths with your sweet guidance and love. AVE MArIA Youth In (lActiou- The origin of the title Our Lady can be traced to the Middle Ages, when on the continent of Europe, feudal castles dotted the hillsides and Knighthood was in Flower. It was a time of daring and adventure, when the knights and lords jousted at the tourney and vied with one another in fighting the Turks in the Holy Land. It was an age when man’s highest ideal was to imitate the example of King Arthur’s Knights of the Round Table, by always being noble and true. Each knight took Mary as his perfect model, and he called Mary — Our Lady or Our Lady T ove — to show that She was the Lady of all hearts”. It was then that this title came into general use, when many knights of Mary sought to make their hearts as pure as Her Immaculate Heart, and to be as loyal to their Lord as Mary was to Hers. We too are Mary’s Knights, for She is our Alma Mater. Within the walls of St. Mary’s, we have been trained for the future, just as the knight of old was trained in his feudal castle, where he learned to read and write, and was drilled in the arts of warfare. We were once Pages” and Squires”, too young to assume the duties of a full-fledged knight. We prayed and studied, looking forward eagerly to the day when we would receive our armor and go off to battle. On the athletic field or on the dance floor, in the classroom or laboratory, youth at St. Mary’s lead an active and interesting life. The Saturday afternoon football game, ouf first Prom, the humorous incidents that happened in class, preparations for graduation; these are the things that were such an intimate part of our school life. Almost unconsciously, we have been changed from carefree boys and girls to men and women with a future before us. In the four years spent at St. Mary’s High School, we have developed mentally, spiritually and physically until now we are about to take the Oath of Fealty, and to leave St. Mary’s forever to follow the special vocation God has given us. The present school year is a memorable one for the class of ’48. It marks the end of a happy and significant period of our lives. Soon, we will graduate, entering upon a future bright with hope. This is an achievement we have long awaited — it is something of which we are justly proud. But it is a parting not entirely free from sorrow. It will mean the severage of close associations, some of which have lasted during our entire school life. The knight must have been saddened when he left his castle home to travel in distant lands. We shall regret also, bidding fare¬ well to St. Mary’s, our training ground, while we proved ourselves worthy to be Knights of Mary. But we shall be able to take Our Lady Love with us, from the portals of our castle to follow us wherever duty calls. The program of the Catholic school is eternity. It dares not aspire to anything less. In Catholic schools, we have an ideal combination of well- grounded secular education with wholesome religious instruction. In this way, we are equipped for future careers not only as doctors, lawyers, teachers or what¬ ever our particular calling may be, but for future careers as saints as well. This is a sublime goal of a religious education — to restore all things in Christ. In our student life can be seen a clear reflection of this idea — for working, studying, or playing, we, as knights of Mary, keep always uppermost in our minds, the fact that heaven and the eternal companionship of Mary, is our ultimate and only object. Sucharisttc £eaguc upper: Paul Seaver checks the daily record for the Eucharistic League. Mary Ferrecchia sums up the devotions for the day. In order to aid in cultivating a positive religious spirit in the characters of the boys and girls who will soon be the men and women of tomorrow, a plan for forming a Eucharistic League was conceived several years ago by our preceding graduating classes. In September, when tfie Eucharistic League was first introduced to our class, Mary Ferrecchia was elected League Prefect for the girls, and Paul Seaver as Prefect for the boys. They faithfully kept records of the daily Masses, Holy Communions and other spiritual devotions which constituted the functions of the League. When any visitor enters our classroom, he cannot help but notice our League record, which occupies a prominent position on the blackboard. Truly each and every member is justly proud of the high totals of religious devotions — our Spiritual Bouquet for Christ. The Eucharistic League has really become for us a constant inspiration and will always be a positive incentive to striv e for the higher things in life, name¬ ly, — religious virtues.

And so it is with our yearbook. There is no wonder then that the Class of ’48 is so justly proud of this year’s publication of the Blue Mantle. In fact we delight in being able to say that the labors of those on the Blue Mantle’’ have produced fruit a hundred fold’’. The excellent results of the book are due principally to its systematic and careful planning under the able direction of the good and zealous Sisters together with the eagerness and willingness of the Staff members. Before beginning to plan this year’s issue of the Blue Mantle several class members were appointed to different sections — each with their own task to perform. Looking over the results they have certainly proven themselves to be an excellent choice. Real tribute belongs to Paul Seaver, Edi tor-in-Chief, and to his able Assistant Editors, Richard Cormier and Beverly Markham. Honors are due also to Helen Doherty, Literary Editor; Helen Sheehan, General Photography Editor; Thomas Byrne, General Sports Editor; Helen Rand, Subscription Editor and John Early, Dana Davis and Gerald Charest, Advertising Managers. There is no need to express the fruit of their labors for one can easily form his own high opinion simply by glancing over these pages, which are the true results of their expert and solid planning. The Yearbook Staff as well as the entire Senior Class of 1948 would like to take this opportunity to mention their sincere gratitude to and cognizance of our outside benefactors, namely, those who have taken advertising space, the Patrons and Sponsors. We realize only too well, how almost impossible it would have been to produce our Yearbook without their kind generosity and aid. To all who have cooperated in any way, we owe our sincerest thanks.

A win from Hudson and a loss from Woburn gave us a split” for the night. The regular season began with a 13-0 win over Leicester. Sayles and Shugrue did the scoring. Another 13-0 victory was hung on St. Patrick’s of Stoneham. Sayles and Early were our touchdown twins this time. Shrewsbury downed the Blue and White, 12-7. Sears took a pass from Sayles for the lone tally. Jerry Charest was the star in the 18-0 win over Med- field. Sayles and Sears scored. Tom Flanigan ran wild as the Battling” Saints upset Westwood 20-13. Again Sayles and Sears scored. 13 13 7 18 20 0 0 0 0 0 Coach John £. Comet FIGHTING SAINTS Wc fought Whitman to a scoreless tie as Sayles, Flanni- gan and McKeown played a fine brand of ball. Undefeated Uxbridge scored in the final second to win 7-0. Sayles and Cormier were outstanding. In 1 sea of mud, Franklin and the Saints battled to a touchdown-less tie. Early and Charest were our stars. Northbridge’s early score was enough for a 6-0 win. Minus Sayles, our offense was quiet. Captain Summers stood out in defense. The annual classic with Milford High was a thriller. The Blue and White threatened often and kept the foes well handicapped, but a last period march by the Mil- fordians stymied our hopes and we lost, 7-0. I Highlights of the 1947-1948 basketball (fampaigrt The 1947-48 basketball campaign was one of the most successful ventures ever staged here at St. Mary’s. Besides copping the traditional Town Championship games from Milford High our Boys in blue” entered the Greater Boston Inter-scholastic Tournament in Malden. Under the able leadership of Captain Ducky” Sayles, the basketball wizards from Milford bowled over all comers and reached the finals only to lose a 43-40 heart-breaker to a skyscraping Needham quintet. Among the other notable triumphs during the four month season included a 5 5-42 victory over Blackstone which was considered one of the best teams in the Woonsocket area. Our Lady’s of Newton, a Catholic League winner fell before the on- rushing Saints 42-33 and St. Mary’s of Waltham which is in the Class B New England Catholic Tour¬ ney fell as our victims, 31-26. Captain Sayles was the most outstanding player on the team. He was high scorer in at least half of our games and was the most valuable player in the Tour¬ nament. Ziggy” Sears and Jack Kelliher will return next year to raise havoc on their opponents just as they did this year. Jack scored twenty points in the Blackstone victory and Ziggy” played a major part in beating Milford High and St. Mary’s of Waltham. Jerry Barlow came up from the second team to become a standout on the varsity because of the star- like play against Franklin. John Summers was highly commended for his skill in grabbing those all-im¬ portant rebounds. In the years to come and St. Mary’s basketball teams are mentioned, the 1948 edi¬ tion will rank topmost in everyone’s mind. Not only did they compile an enviable record but their great sportsmanship and their will-to-win, won for them the admiration of all.

Strengthened by the return of ten veterans, headed by Captain Donald Sayles, Coach Comer began the task of molding a winning combination, that would stand up under a stiff eighteen game schedule. The competition for varsity berths was very keen, and many of the veterans found that the newcomers to the squad were very cap¬ able of holding down positions in the starting lineup. With such a well-balanced squad the Saints” should encounter little trouble on the road to victory.
