His mother and father had nicknamed him 'RustyN from the start because of his beautiful, Wrustyn, curly hair. His father, Mr. O'Rielly, had loved horses as a boy and continued doing so to the present day. Because of this liking, he had started a horse ranch when he was only seventeen. Mrs.O'Rielly and he had lived in happiness for quite a few years until misfortune after misfortune came their way. Finally, they were forced to sell many of their fine, thoroughbred horses. Rusty was the only speck of sunshine that came into their lives during this time. Three years later a.shining black colt, with a white star on its forehead, was born. This colt was named Star. The sleekest colt there could with Star. Hardly a time didn't go along to Whelpn. O'Rielly's thought he was the be. Mr.O'Rielly spent many hours arrived to care for him that Rusty Star became the family pet. Mr O'Rielly spent many precious hours in training him. Then came Rusty's turn to learn to ride. He enjoyed the summer months of vacation, riding and attending to Star. Of course, he liked the other horses but none could compare with Star. Worst of all Rusty hated to go to school. He could not see so much of the horses and had to stay indoors and study. The summer Rusty was nine, his father let him stay around where the hands were working, and some of them who liked him, as most everyone did, taught him many facts work. He liked every bit of the work about hated to go to school. Especially the fall enter the fifth grade. He was to go to the fall because all grades, from the fifth up, about the ranch the ranch and that he was to town school this had to go there. With this added expense along with others, the O'Rielly's were worried as to how they would make ends meet. Then, one day, Rusty heard his parents talking. It was his father who was speaking. nMr. Brandon was here today and offered me two hundred and fifty dollars for Star.W NBut we can't sell her. We are all so Doesn't he want any of the others?W attached to her. WHe needs a special horse and he says none will do if he can not have Star.W . WBut what will Rusty say?N WI don't know, that is the worst of it, but we must have the money. We can always get another colt.W That seemed to settle it for there was nothing else said. When Rusty's father told him that they were going to sell Star, he knew there was no use to protest. He was so upset, he eouldn't find enough time to spend with Star. Star was taken away the next day. Everything seemed gloomy after that. Rusty wandered about restlessly. There seemed to be nothing of interest to do and school was to begin soon. Then, one day, Vr. O'Rielly came into the house with a wide smile on his face. Nwhat has happened?W Yrs. O'RieIly asked anxiously. WYou know the bank where we had our money when the depression came and all the banks were closed? It says here in the paper that they are starting up again and they are paying a percentage of the amount they owed. They are to open sometime before the New Year.W A few days after this happening a colt was born. Rusty was one of the first to see it. The first time he set his eyes on it he decided that he was going to call it his own. It lifted its head and seemed to be looking right at him. Mr. O'Rielly was away from home at the time, but on his arrival home, Rusty was there to tell him the news and to take him straight to the stable to see the colt. His father was as pleased as Rusty. The new little colt was just the color of Sta NOh, Daddy, may I have him for my very own?W Wwhy, yes, you deserve it. You may care for him and I think Tom will help you break him when he gets a little older.H WOh, may I really break him?W Why, sure. What are you going to name him?W WI don't know yet. I must think up the best name.U But this didn't prove to be a hard task for the next morning the colt was wide awake and looked at him with bright twinkling eyes. He knew in a minute what the name was ---- NTwinkles.W Daphne Gould '51 Mother: WJimmy, you have your shoes on the wrong feet.N Jimmy: NBut, Nom ie they're the only feet I have.W I' WHY I PLAN TO FOLLOW THE VOCATION OF A NURSE Anyone who has been ill knows how welcome good nursing can be. Dressed in starched white clothes, the nurse moves quietly about the sickroom, doing the things that makes a patient more comfortable. By following the doctor's orders, she brings relief and physical comfort to the patient and helps promote a speedy return to good health. If you can visualize our civilization without these medical helpers, you will suddenly realize how important they are. The demand for nurses has increased greatly, and is still growing. More and more people are joining hospitalization plans and health insurance groups. This makes it possible for more people, than formarly, to go to the hospital when illness comes. Physicians hospitalize more patients nowadays to give them the benefit of new equipment, treatment methods, and drugs. Another factor is the growth of health education, which emphasizes the importance of early treatment for illness. The increased medical research in hospitals requires the work of nurses for treatment procedures, tests, and accurate observ- vations. The high birth rate of recent years has placed an added strain on hospital facilities and nursing staffs. These trends promise to continue, although the minimum requirement for public health, is one public health nurse for every one thousand people. About 900 counties in the United States have no public health nurse at all! That lack must be filled. National, state, and local health organizations are working to put health service within the reach of every American citizen. Health insurance programs are expanding constantly. ' This all adds up to an ever-growing need for trained nurses Many opportunities, therefore, wait for the young woman who feels the urge to serve her fellowmen as a nurse, and who has 1 the necessary qualities and education to make good in the profession. As in many other professions, salaries in the nursing pro- fession are subject to many changes at the present time. The increased cost of living and the growing demand for nursing services constitute at least two important factors responsible for this. In addition, salaries vary in different parts of the country, and may even vary from one hospital to another in the same city. However, in general, the young nurse to day will begin at a salary ranging from a possible S190 to 3210 a month, her maintenance being deducted from this amount, which is anywhere between 630 to 350 a month. Specialized nurses, such as psy- chiatric nurses and operating room nurses, usually, begin at slightly higher salaries. Hospitals pay some S10 to 820 extra for evening and night duty. Average salaries in the field are higher, of course, than starting rates, and vary from one locality to another. Private duty nurses in large cities receive 310 for eight hours of duty, 3512 for 12 hours, and S513 for 20 hours, In that city, private duty nurses can earn between 32,000 and 33,000 a year, depending on how many hours they are willing to work. Qualified .urses rarely have to wait between cases nowadays. Some professional associations, which strive to obtain for nurses as much of a normal life as ossible, are, at present, recommending a beginning salary of 5200 a month, exclusive of maintenance. In contrast to the importance of her work, the nurse works under a few unpleasant circumstances. Although some hospitals have adopted the L0-hour week, the majority of hospitals still hold as much as 5b or more hours a week. The work of all nurses is hard, both physically and men- tally. Nurses remain on their feet a great part of the time, bending and lifting. The responsiblity of watching a sick person may be more tiring than the more physical effort requir- ed. Nurses working with patients suffering from contagious diseases may contract them, although the hazard is slight owing to the precautions they take. The nursing career has numerous advantafes. For one thing, a.nurse's education and experience often proves very useful in a woman's private life. As a matter of fact, more nurses get married than women in other professions. A nurse learns how to take care of herself. Another important advantage to a nursing career for women is the lack of significant male' - competition. Above all, a nurse has the satisfaction of min- istering to sick and ailing fellow beings, and helping to res- tore them to health and usefulness. ' . To be a good nurse, certain personality traits are Wmustsn A girl needs good health, above all, for nursing entails long hours on one's feet and adjustment to many strenuous physical and emotional situations. A nurse must have a spirit of service, for this is really the essence of her job. As people are her primary concern, she should be able toget along well with them. Fact, good judgement, amiability, sympathy, patience, and adaptability are prime requisites for a good nurse. She must be selfreliant and sure of herself before she can help other people. Finally, she must have a sense of humor and be dependable. In the next few years, I shall strive to improve my qual- ifications, so that I may become an WAngel of Mercyn, the name nurses have carved for themselves through their willing efforts to help humanity. Janice Watson '53 My Trip to the Science Fair The State Science Fair at Augusta was very inte- resting and educational, There were five regional fairs a week before the final fair which was held at Cony High School, this year, In the regionals, winners were chosen to participate in the finals, Entering the regio- nal fair is not compulsory, but if one does enter and wins, one automatically enters the final fair, One may also enter if he has not participated in the regional fair, The four first prizes in the State Fair were really worth getting, They were one-hundred dollar scholar- ships to any one of the four Maine Colleges, There was also a fifth first prize given to a Freshman or Sophomore who had the best exhibit in that class, There were bea- utiful Maine Erincipals' Association Plaques given to the five first place winners, These plaques are similar to the M.P.A. basketball pins, but much larger than the pins given to the team, There were four 512,00 slide rules given to the second place winners, -The four third place winners received a choice of any science book not costing over S5l2.00,l There were many interesting exhibits and speeches, The first prize in exhibits was given to a boy who had stuffed about twenty animals, Another boy won a prize with two model airplanes and a display of the parts of a model airplane engine, The third prize in exhibit went to a boy with a radio controlled airplane, There were also many excellent displays which showed the principles of fire extinguishers, the automobile, and the atomic bomb, Anyone with almost anything he had made with any original ideas had a very good chance of winning a prize, It was a lot of fun meeting boys and girls from all over the State. I hope that next year more students from Standish High School will enter, Everyone ought to feel grateful to the M.P.A. for organizing activities such as this, T John Randall '50 Cemetery By the Sea One dark night, as we were going home, we climbed the first part of the hill in silence. As wo reached the middle we began to talk and make jokes. We were all beginning to feel a little depressed, The cemetery was very close to the road at this point. I remember, one, more daring than the others, began to walk on the wall wiich separated the road from the tombs and graves. Then, someone began to wonder what the others would do if we should see something, ghostly, frightening, or supernatural Of course, we didn't believe in ghosts or anything like ' that! It was merely the foolishness of a group of young people. Besides, this graveyard had a ghost which made regular appear- ances and, of course, we had to make comments about that. Soon, someone began to talk about blue lights floating around. Suddenly with a screeoh the fellow walking on the wall pitched into the road. Hysterically, he told us to look over the wall. There we saw a faint blue light. It was coming towards us from the other side of the cemetery.' Of course we knew it was a ghost. What else could it be, when, on that side, Ehere was only the ocean. The boys grabbed us girls by the hands and we ran screaming up the hill. Immediately the light changed its course to come directly after us. The faster we ran the faster it came. We ran and ran until we could run no more. The light came more quickly toward us as we stood shaking and trembling. Finally it was beside us, as we stood petrified with fear. Our dog, Butch, put down the body of the phosphorus covered sea gull he was carrying in his mouth and whined happily.

This was the day for the first football practice and the boys had chosen him as captain of the team. Soon as Ted reached the steps of the school he saw a new boy standing on the porch. The boy was tall, of heavy build and very friendly. So Ted, as he usually did, went up to make friends with himg but Ted did not talk football. The boy, an all-star, knew more about football than Ted, so Ted said that he was a quarter-back and the captain. When the boy said he was a quarter-back, too, Ted's heart went to his toes. The boys went through with their classes that day and that afternoon, football practice got under way. The coach tried Ted in quarter the situation worse, The coach put Ted on After two weeks back and then the new boy, and to make the bov out-shone Ted in many ways. the second string. practice the Amherst High's eleven was ready to play their first game, but Ted had not forgotten that new boy. So in and blamed it on the English class he threw a paper plane new boy. The new bov had to stay two hours after school and miss the first game. When Ted was going down the steps of the school he slipped on a banana peel and sprained his ankle. Ted thought he would die, his ankle hurt so badly. So he decided the best thing he could do was to clear the new boy and stay in himself. Ted told the teacher what he had done and stay- ed in for the other boy. It was two o'clock when Ted looked out on the field and saw the new boy make 'a brilliant run that won the game. Ted was haopy that his school had won and the big grudge was forgotten.

She called out and soon she heard her mother's soothing voice telling her that everything was going to be all right. Then Dorcus remembered the fire and she asked if her little friend had been hurt. Her mother told her that she was fine and that they why she could ages over her in a hospital going to take eyes. Her her home. had both been rescued by firemen.

Her mother and father and several doctors were present. The doctor cut the bandages and asked her if she could see anything. 'She buried her head in the pillow and began to cry. It was then that they knew she would be blind for the rest of her life. The next day her parents took her home. Her mother brought her meals to her of the day. Life went on in this on a tray and read to her most manner for a few weeks until she began to learn how to walk around the house by hanging on to the furniture. She had a very sweet disposition and everyone liked her. The people in the village came to visit her often. Her parents got her a seeing-eye dog. Then they hired Mrs. Charlotte Smith to teach her how to read Braille. She learned very quickly. Dorcus grew tote a very beautiful young woman. One day on her 17th birthday she was walking in the park with her seeing-eye dog, Laddie. She was sitting on a bench when she realized that someone was sitting beside her. He introduced himself as Richard Anderson. He asked if he might walk her home. He noticed the dog and realized that she was blind. When they arrived at her house she invited him in to meet her parents. When Richard had left,her parents told her that he was! well-dressed and must come from a wealthy family. He called on her many times after that and soon they fell in love. They were married on Dorcus' eighteenth birthday. Her husband wished to have her sight restored so he took her to a specialist. He told her that there was a fifty-fifty chance that she might see again. After the operation she wore the bandages for about six weeks. Then the great day came when they were to be taken off. Everyone held their breath. UDorcus, can you see?U asked her husband. nYes,H she replied happily,U for the first time in twelve years I can see, and I owe it all to you. For the rest of my life I am going to help the blind for I know how miser- able one can be who can see nothing but darkness.H Dorcus and her husband devoted their lives to helping the blind. They founded a school for the blind where Dorcus taught the Braille system. Because they had given their lives so completely to helping others they were both happy. ' E. Holmes ' S. Nelson' We Took Boarders At the time of this story we lived'in a small eastern town. so that we My mother wanted very much to build a stable might raise horses. Dad owned a general store in the town but the income was never large enough to lay away much money. By the time he had payed for food and clothes for a family of six plus frequently visiting in-laws the money was nearly gone. Mom with her love for horses decided to make some money by herself. We had a large old-fashioned house and now that we children were not babies she thought that taking boarders would be just the thing. So with the help of Ben, my brothen she made a large sign with the words nBoardersn printed in bold letters. It was in were coming to the town there night and this The first the our was was day early part of the summer and many tourists small town for rest and relaxation. In only one other place for people to stay over a disreputable looking hotel. we put up our sign in the middle of the afternoon, a loving young couple on their honeymoon inquired about a room. Mom was delighted and immediately gave them the best room we had. She told them what the cost would be and when supper was to be served. Most of the afternoon they sat in the love seat on the lawn, until my brother, Bill, caused them to have an argument. He hid behind the lilac bushes on the lawn, and with an old stick kept tickling the girl and ruffling up her hair. She turned into a little spitfire and blamed her loving husband for ruining her new hair-do. He tried to tell her that he wasn't doing it but she would not listen. nRudolph, don't perfect wreck.N And to the room they had let poor Rudolph in, you ever speak to me again., Now I'm a with that she went into the house and up been given.

He was always afraid We were just preparing for bed at ten-thirty when there was a knock on the door. Mom went to the door while Dad waited up stairs with a gun, in case it was burglars. But there was no need of the gun for it was a very timid little man stand- ing in the doorway. He wanted a room for himself and his wife. Mom said she was very sorry but there were no vacancies. The little man looked so very disappointed that he softened mom's heart. In a few minutes the man was in the house with his robust wife beside him. They were having Mom and Dad's room over the night. Meanwhile Dad was in the attic setting up an extra bed for himself and Mom. Finally, we all retired for the night. The house, was very silent except for an occasional snore here and there. Crash! Ban 1 Such a noise and such yelling and screaming'you never heargf It sounded as though the roof had fallen in. - I was sleeping downstairs and as I passed through the upstairs hallway I saw some very peculiar sights. The women all looked as though they had just seen a ghost. Finally I reached the attic, and there I burst into peals of laughter. Mom and Dad were on the floor with the head and foot boards of the bed collapsed on top of them! Mom was laughing amid the uproar, but no such sounds emerged from Dad! He was thoroughly disgusted.

I went back downstairs and told the boarders not to worry that everything was all right and for them to go back to sleep. The rest of the night was uneventful. , Mom was instructed by Dad not to let any boarders have their bedroom again no matter how disappointed they looked.

Hwhat are these opportun- ities?N Let us follow the life of an immigrant who has never had these opportunities and see what they are. This immigrant's name is Max Alban, he is just one of many persons who wishes to find oeace and freedom, and he has CODIS to America. I am proud that he has chosen America. He is on a boat coming to the harbor of New York. He is at the boats railing looking at the Statue of Liberty. He sees the tall lady which stands for freedom. He feels proud and he says to the person beside him, that stands for all I ever wanted, to be let alone and feel as though I wasn't being told what When he gets to New York, he finds the wav to Grand Station. It is here that he has his first real taste of freedom America offers. He goes uo to the ticket office asks for a ticket to a town where a friend lives. There to do. Central the and are no questions such as: Why are you going here? When are you going? How long are you going to be there? Then someone tell- ing him he can't go because they don't like his answers and don't believe he is telling the truth. When Max as to what to showed itself. This was the eager help which the people Alban arrived at his friends town he was lost do next, but one of the forms of Americanism of the town offered him. They gave him information and helped him out even though he was a stranger and a foreigner. This didn't make any difference to real Americans. Another thing which Max enjoyed was his choice of jobs, No one told him he had to do this and pay this and that. He got a job which he liked and enjoyed one of his first freedoms of free enterorise, the right to choose his own job. When he got this job he noticed another thing, that there was no discrimination. One of the great things about America is that it follows the rule, HAll Ten are Created Equa1.n Once Max got in an accident and it was then that he found another form of Americanism. This was the free courts and the right that a person is innocent until proven guilty. right is one of the true forms of Americanism. This Max Alban had been living in the United States the required amount of time and was learninj all the subjects required to become naturalized. Studying of the history of the United States he found out how hard it had been for the earlv Americans to establish freedom. He learned that Americans had wanted free- dom so bad that thev had united themselves together. They had beaten the strongest army of that great day and age in the world and later the strongest navy in the world for that right of a free government.whereamen.might choose their own laws for the best of everyone because a ter all they were the ones who had to obey these rules. lt was in the first reading of the WUnited States Constitutionn and the NDeclaration of Independencen that he realized these were some of the greatest papers ever written. They expressed the right of the people to have more freedom than any one else had had since the time of the Roman Empire. Another thing which Carl Max was proud of as well as we are, WThe Four Freedomsn. In our country,men may go to whatever church they wish to. They have no fear, there are plenty of products which give us freedom from want. The freedom of speech, this country shows a great value of Americanization in its freedom to speak in public, on the radio, and in the newspapers. I am proud that our country is one of the few countries where men may criticize their country and its government for its own good and benefit. America's freedom is one of her greatest resources. This freedom leads to greater and better ways of production. This country doesn't have much more resources than any other country but the American way of life can produce more and better products because of its free enterprise. There is the freedom Max's children had. The right that America offers her children such as free education, free libraries, hospitals, and one of the best values are the t values of sportsmanship that America teaches her children through competitive sports. When Max grew old and became unable to work or if he became crippled on his job he would get a compensation, established through such benefits as social security,and old age pension. This is one of the privileges that Max could not have enjoyed if he were in the old country. These freedoms enjoyed by Max and his children are enjoyed by every person in the United States if they take advantage of the inheritance left to them by their forefathers To me these are privileges of freedom which every American enjoys and can be proud ofa are as follows: l. The right of a person to travel anywhere they wish without interference from their government. 2. The willingness of the American people to help one another when in need. 3. That all men are created equal regardless of race, creed or religion. 4, The many opportunities which America offers by her free enterprise, 5, That all men are innocent until proven guilty, 6, That the price of liberty was not cheap, which is shown by America's history, and never will it be cheap. 7, That we have two of the best known documents in the world which express freedom, The Declaration of Independence , and The Constitution , 8. The four freedoms: The freedom of speechg The freedom of religion: The freedom from fearg The freedom from wantg 9, The opportunities that our children have and the free institutions where they may acquire an education. 10, The workers' compensation and old age benefits for people who have reached the age of retirement, 11. That the people of the United States are represented in the government equally and have a great deal to do with how it is run, l2, The patent laws and copyright laws, which gives a person the right to claim an invention which they them- selves have invented, , To me this is Americanization, This is what men have fought for for ages, and, finally, attained in the establishment of the United States, Men whose names we have never heard have fought to keep this freedom, Men have died to keep this freedom and will continue to die es long as there is a threat to their freedom and security, why shouldn't they? They are fighting for- themselves and not for some king or dictator, This may not be perfect and many people say so but what government is? I am sure that one could not find another governmontanywhere on the face of the earth that represents the average, common everyday man as well as the American goverment does. To me this is Americanization, shore men can live, work, and sleep in a country as free as ours, and may God keep it that way. Earl Ramsdeil '50 CANCER Tumors are of two kinds, harmful and non-harmful. Non- harmful tumors remain dormant after they attain a certain size. Harmful turmors, cancers, have no limit to their growth and they destroy life by extending into healthy tissues. There are many types of cancer, these are classified according to the tissue from which the growth originates. In the beginning, a cancer is composed of a few microscopic cells, much smaller than a pin. Some grow very rapidly, some very slowly, depending on the condition of the body. When it begins to grow there are no symptoms, but later, when the cancer presses on the nerves, pain results. Bleeding begins only whbn the cancer ulcerates. Any other symptoms are not due to the cancer itself but to its interference with some normal function of the body. A cancer looks like a lump of tissues. It has no roots but it may grow out through the vessels of the body to distant parts. Cancer usually begins to appear at the age of thirty-five and increases rapidly in frequency until the age of sixty-five- a little earlier in women, a little later in men. After seventy-five, the occurrence of cancer decreases rapidly, until it practically disappears at ninety. The cause of cancer is not known, though there are two popular superstitions regarding it. One is, that cancer may be produced by a blow, and the other, that cancer is due to a germ. There is not the slightest evidence to prove either of these. A large number of cases in which it was claimed that a blow had caused the growth of the cancer have been investigated, and it has been found that the disease existed before the blow was received. When the large numbers of people who in their lifetime have received blows in various portions of their bodies was compared to the small numbers who have developed cancer, it is evident that there can be no relationship between the blow and the beginning of the tumor. It is true that a blow may stimulate a cancer, which has already started to grow. Often times the blow brings out the evidence of the tumor for the first time. v The reasons for believing that bacteria have nothing to do with cancer are based upon the results of experimental work on animals. If a cancer is transplanted from one animal to another of the same species, it will grow and ultimately kill the second animal. If some of this cancer tissue is crushed or frozen so that all the cells present are broken up, it will not produce a tumor when grafted on to another animal. While we do not know the cause of cancer, we do know the condtions under which it is liable to arise, and these are any chronic inflammation or ulceration of the skin or of any other organ of the body. If, for instance, the skin is burned, and the burn remains for a long time, there is always risk that a cancer may develop in the site. The only generally successful cure for cancer is its re- moval, as early as possible, by surgical means. The use of the knife is preferred to caustics or cautery because it permits of a cleaner cut and more possibility for deep inter- nal cancer involving the stomach or intestines, but, occasion- ally, cancers of the skin are treated by caustic with fair results. It is, however, better to have the cancer cut out clean, as the scar is then much less marked and the healing is more rapid. A certain number of cancers of the face, and especially small early cancers on other sites can occasionally be cured by either radium or x-ray, but, as yet, we have no published statistics to show what proportion of cases can be permanently cured by either of these agents, the number of cures, reported after some forty years of use of both these, is exceedingly small, and the results are not nearly so good as those which follow surgical removal of the entire tumor. It must be remembered that cancer is not a blood disease and that when it begins it is no larger than a pin-point, so that if we could make a diagnosis and cut it out in time, every cancer would be curable. The dificulty is to make a diag- nosis and as the symptoms absent, it is impossible for a physician to learn of the beginning of the disease in time to cut it all out. With every improvement in diagnosis of cancer the possibility of curing the disease has increased. E. Irish 150 POLIOMYELITIS Poliomyelitis is also known as Infantile Paralysis, or Heine Medins Disease, It is an acute infectionous disease, chiefly involving the spinal cord and its membranes, and some- times it advances into the upper parts of the mid-brain and the brain itself. It has not been definitely decided which is the agent of this disease and it has not been isolated yet. It has been communicated to lower animals lchiefly monkeysJ and has been transmitted through several generations. It is thought to be a filterable virus of some kind, which is in some ways like the virus of the disease known as hydrophobia. The mode of entering the body is not definitely known, but the naso-phatynx is supposed to carry it. It is a comm- unicable disease and occurs in epidemic form, such as measles, chickenpox, whooping cough, etc. It.is found chiefly in the temperate zones and the epidemics occur chiefly in the autumn and summer but epidemics in the fall and winter are not un- known. It affects children. The attack often begins with mild respiratory or gastroin testinal disturbances. There are signs of neuralgia and one may have neuralgic pains and headaches. There also may be an increasing irritability to light, sounds, and touch. Certain groups of muscles are partially or completely paralyzed from within ZA to 72 hours. These paralyses of muscle groups are usually very unequally distributed and a whole muscle group or only part of one may be paralyzed. The involuntary structures are also involved at times, causing various trophic or vegetative disturbances. The nature of the changes in the spinal cbrd' are those of an acute inflammation, in which the blood supply to the cord may be cut off or the inflammation may cause swelling and pressure upon the nerve structures. This causes a partial or complete destruction of the nerve structures of the spinal cord. ' Modern study has shown the involvement of the nervous system, but it also shows that the disease may be in other than purely nervous structures. In certain patients the chief destruction is in the mid-brain tissues, from these, result paralyses of the cranial nerves, particularly of the eye-ball muscles and the muscles of the face. As a rule its worst effects are present within the first week of illness. The recovery of this disease is a long and tedious affair and may take as long as years. Recovery is y very slow, but there is a gradual improvement if the proper kind of treatment is pursued. Special quarantine measures are desirable for suspects of those sick from the disease. In the acute stages of the disease it is not known what may be beneficial. Lumber puncture helps some, ergot helps others. The best remedy is a serun obtained from the blood of persons who have had the disease and recovered. The recent development of a much stronger serum from the blood of a horse, which is still under experimentation, is expected to give a more effective remedy. Great care should be given to conscious muscle training. Electricity, massage, and other similar types of therapy are usually unavailing. The muscles must be made to perform by the conscious wish to perform movements. Swimming pools are very useful in the treatment of paralyzed muse es. Thus the search for knowledge in order to combat this dread disease is discovering new helos. As time goes on it is to be hoped that Infantile Paralysis will be less dangerous and its results less permanent. Nola Skillings '50 a 'f'lf5'f A J .. .

At times, though, we Seniors were so noisy that she needed a megaphone to make herself heard. She loves to dance and is a member of the basketball and softball teams. Not only is she Secretary of the Student Council but Salutatorian of the class. Rachel has taken the Commercial course but whether she becomes a secretary or not, we know she will succeed. Vice President Earl Ramsdell Earl has not had much of an opportunity to preside at class meetings but he is most capable of doing so. He is a member of the baseball and basketball teams and has been a Student Council member for four years. Earl also happens to be an avid Dodger fan. Lots of luck to you and your Dodgers, Earl. Secretary-Treasurer Nola Skillings Nola is our class miser and a very efficient one, too. If it hadn't been for Nola's money management, we might not have reached New York. She loves to play the piano and, I might add, she does a very good job of it. Nola plans to go to Eastern Nazarene college in the fall. Good luck, Nola. Student Council Earl Ramsdell Ellen Chaplin Clarence Chute Rachel Hines This year Ellen was elected President of the Student Council by the student body and she has done a very good job.

BLER Board 3g Baseball To The Teachers Mrs. Damon, she's our English tutor, In sports is now, our favorite rooterg Although she keeps us on the ball, We know she still loves us all. She gives us lectures once in a while, About talking and fooling in the aisle, Or about hitting each other during class, And not doing the work, or trying to pass. She made us a mint, on our senior play, By making us practice everyday. I don't think she really ever gets sore, And we'll be friends forever more. Mr. Bartick, in latin, is smart as a whip, In Government, and History, theres nary a slip. Because he is always both friendly and kind, Nhile helping us try to develop the mind. For peonle who talk, and giggle, and fool, He holds special classes, at night, after school, nOhI - for the life of a teacher, HI said, But Mr. Bartick, claims, HI would be happier, deadn, Mr. Bartick cracks a corny joke, ' If we don't laugh, his heart is broke. He's always ready with time to lend, , And we'll be friends until the end. ir. Andrews, who is never forlorn, Is over here at the crack of dawn. His hair is combed, his suit ig pressed, 'Cause he is always nicely dressed. Now and then I stop to wonder, Why he never makes a blunder, In math he always has a smile, While adding numbers by the mile. We know he knows his ABC's, land also he can still write E's.J Although he's glad when each day ends, Ne'll always be the best of.friends. Morton Strom '50 My School Days Gee, how I dislike going to school I would rather go out skating There wouldn't be any homework to do And nights I could be dating I have to rise early each morning And start along the way I wouldn't mind'going once a year But why go everyday?

He is an active member in all school activities and excels in Basketball and Baseball. Dave is a friend to all and is never idle, for when he has any spare moments, you will find him reading a Hthrilling westernn. Vice President Suzanne Thomas Suzanne is still our old stand-by. She gets her Physics and French done everyday and is very willing to help her class mates when they get stuck. Suzanne participates in and enjoys all sports. She plays on the basketball and softball teams. She is also Editor-in-Chief of the Crimson Rambler and a member of the Student Council. Secretary Dick Lombard Dick is about the best natured guy in the class. He has a wonderful of reading, first prize that he was Treasurer Louise is! She is sense of humor miich we all enjoy. He does a lot especially that of a scientific nature. Dick won in the prize speaking contest this year. He says scared, but he looked as cool as a cucumber! Louise Sawyer is a quiet girl--until you get to know her, that a great baseball fan---just ask her sometime what she thinks about the Boston Red Sox! Louise likes to skate, play softball, volley balL and badminton. She is taking the commercial course and judging from the ranks she gets, she is going to make a very fine secretary. Louise is a wonderful sport and is a real credit to S.H.S. Student Council ' Jean Johnson Jean was elected to the Student Council in her freshman year. She is an exceptionally good student. She plays basket- ball and softball and is Assistant Editor of the year book. Jean likes music and loves to dance. Student Council Mickey Foster Mickey is another athlete of whom we are very proud. He is a fine basketball and baseball player. More than one have envied his ability to sink that ball through the net! In his spare moments you will probable find him sitting near Dave and reading a good western, alsog that is, whenever either can get away with it. Richard Harding '51 Prize Speaking After the first bubble of confusion in September had settled, everyone began talking about one thing ----- Prize Speaking! All of the Juniors were told to select their pieces and start working, And they meant work: Every afternoon one would see the Juniors ---- most of them, that is ---- reporting to their respective teachers. I think the teachers who had to chase the students around, used more energy than they realized they had, This year there were twenty-five participating in the prize speaking contest, After listening to these students speak, the teachers selected fourteen to participate in the semi-finals, which were held on October 10, Local judges se- lected eight students to enter the finals, They were as follows: Jane Dole, Ida Smith, William Lombard, Jean Johnson Glenn Harmon, Richard Harding, Patricia Brown, and Alberta Tompson, The finals were held in the high school auditorium on the evening nervous, as job, of October 18, The speakers were all pretty might be expected, but they all did a wonderful The judges who were from Hollis High School were as follows: James H, Flynn, Principalg Robert H, Strong, and Mrs, Vildred S, Corey, Jean Johnson won first prize for the girls, with the humorous piece nNumber 5 Collect Streetu, 'Nilliam HDickn Lombard won a fine performance of Hhiram on Ida Smith won second prize Doon, We are hoping that Roger Smith Jeans nWhat like first prize for the boys with the rullman,u with her selection of HDaddy all looking forward the Sophomores will to the contest of 1950, enjoy it as much as we did!

It means learning to love others no matter creed. It means giving up all ideas of prejudice It should mean giving up hatred, America for everyone what race or America means opportunity for all. An opportunity for every one to make his dreams come true no matter how great or small. An opportunity to make of himself a person to be loved and respected. We should all make the most of these opportun- ities. America means friendliness. Americans are the friend- liest people in the world. No where will you find people so willing to help a neighbor. America means freedom of speech, religion, press, and freedom from want. These things mean more to Americans than anything on earth. Americans regard these as the most precious of any- thing which their forefathers have handed down to them. Americ have and will fight if necessary for these Four Freedoms. America means privileges and duties. Americans have the privilege of doing as they please as long as thev do not hurt others or themselves. Americans have the rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. These things are not only rights, they are duties as well. When we have realized and practiced all these things we have earned the right to say, HI am proud to be an American.N Barbara Ward '51 S-T-A-N-D-I-S-H S- is for Standish which we all know so wellg T- is for our teachers whom we think are really swell.

WNancy'Anderson'5l 1 9.I'1S nJunior Paper Drivesn During November, the Junior Class sent postcards to our many friends and neighbors, asking them to save their papers, rags, magazines, and corregated boxes, On the 17th of November, we started our drive, Micky Foster, Dick noberts, and Sherwood Libby furnish ed the trucks for the collection, after much persuasion from Jane, Some of the others in the class went along to carry the papers from the houses, and to tie up the loose articles, After we collected the paper, we put it in Mr. C, B, Weeks' barn and some of the ambitious Junior girls bundled it for the boys to take to Porfland to sell, In spite of the cold weather it was lots of fun and everyone work- ed with plenty of spirit, Jane and Pat were to be in the prize-speaking finals that night, but that didn't keep them from working until dark! This first paper drive covered Standish, bebago Lake, Steep Falls, and west Buxton. On April 17th, during our spring vacation, we started on another campaign, we added Standish Neck,and Richville to our territory, Dick, Sherwood, and Nicky again supplied the trucks, but this time we had a wonderful, warm, spring day and we were in the best of spirits, Micky sure has a way with girls! I see he had cute little Mary Ann warren and her Teddy bear to help him drive his truck! We stored most of the paper in Bob Ware's garage until we could get it into Portland ---- poor Bob! We have finally come to the conclusion that our paper drives were a rollicking success!

For before I left for home He asked me for a date.N Richard Harding '51 Coke Machine It is, as some of you know, the custom for every Junior Class to take over the responsibility of managing the coco- cola machine. So, at our first class meeting our primary concern was to decide upon the proper management of the project Since we had such a large class, we decided to divide the boys into pairs, and each couple would keep the coke machine filled for a week. The girls were divided up in a similiar manner, to keep the machine clean and to collect the empty bottles that were left around the school. In this way the work was evenly distributed and not left just to those few ambitious people in the class. This project was a great boost toward obtaining money for our class treasury and we all feel that it was worth all the work we put into it. Richard Harding '51 ALL MY PROUBLVS ANU 'OWS Believe me, Ifve tried real hard To make this thing a poem, But, no matter how hard I try, The subjects just wonft join. Mrs. Damon told us a week ago A ballad we must write, So, I put it off and put it off, But tonight is the last night. I've tried so many different things Ny history book is weary, I sit here feeling ever so dumb, Do you expect me to be cheery? I started in with hieroglyphics But this did not work out, Then I switched to the cave men, And how they, their wives did clout. Then the subject ofthe church Presented itself to me, Put after a few brave attempts, I laid it aside with glee. Next I tried the medieval manor With the serfs who never bathe, After only a few lines of that, I decided my time I should save. The Crusades offered possibilities, With many points to stress, So after only an hour or two I ended up with a mess. Now that you know my troubles, Ifll bring this to a close, But the one who studies World History Is the only one who knows! Louise Sawyer 'SI nLifen- A Three Act Play by Anyone Who Would Like to Enter First act: Each and every one of us Sit by and watch this life awhileg Then, we try to make a success And add our contribution to the pile. Second act: Some contribute good, while others may Contribute another kind of mightg But, still, it takes all kinds of hay To fill the barn to its greatest height Third act: And, then, when we have done our part Someone else will have to take our placeg And, we hope they'll have the heart To add a little good, though not in haste. Lorraine Ramsdell 'Sl 1 ' nGoing to Schooln Everyday that I go to school, L There are always a million things to dog ind, if I try with all my might, It still would take me all day and night. Every morning when I rise, It takes me hours to open my eyesg And, if I tried with all my might, It still would tdce me all day and night. Finally, after a hard dayls work is done I am sure a tired one, , And, no matter how late the time, I'll still be working to keep me in line, And if I try with all my might, It still would take me all day and night. Frances Perkins 'Sl I've got a lovely bunch of classmates I really think they're swell. And anyone who knows the class The same will readily tell. We get along with everyone And try with all our might To do the very best we can The way we think is right. Above our heaps of homework We tg? to bear a smile And 1 you think that's easy Just try it for a while. We have many students Who in sports they do excel And if you read the Sports section About them I'm sure 'twill tell. I think I'd better stop right here And explain before I'm done That the class about which I'm speaking Is the Class of 'Sl J! Richard Harding '51 Which class in the school is largest With WJokesU its greatest resource? Which class in the school is strangest? The Junior class of course! It's no trouble for us to agree Except at a class meeting And maybe we do flunk exams But we are never found cheating. We have so many jokers We can't help but have fun And it's easy to make the teachers Wish their work was done. The future of the Junior Class We find is very stable And we shall all do our best We know that we are able. Louise Sawyer '51 Student Council This year's new members to the Student Council were Rachel Rines, Senior, who is also our secretary and treasurer, Ronald HMickyH Foster, Juniorg Neal Marean, Sophomore, and Eleanor Holmes, Freshman. The student body electei Ellen Chanlin as our President, and she has certainly shown herself capable. As a whole, all the members are coonerative, hard working, congenial, and certainly full of fun! Our meetings are never dull, thanks to Merton Chute and some of the other boys, but nevertheless, we have accomnlished a great deal this year, and have always tried to do our best. We attended the meeting of the Student Councils of the secondary schools in Maine which was held at Cony High School, Augusta. All of our members went and Mr. Eartick went along as our sunervisor. Ve all had a very enjoyable time althou5h most of us were tired from having to start so early in the morning after a basketball game the night before. Howerver, asnirin and Dlenty of coffee kept us awake. ' V The meeting was very interesting and the debate over the method of electing officers was very exciting. We were all proud of what Suzanne had to say concerning it. After the meeting was over we went to lunch ani some of us went turough the Blaine Mansion and saw Governor Paine. In the afternoon session we all separated and went to soecial Dlaces in grouns. It was interesting to get the different viewpoints from the other schools. We heard that there was going to be a basketball game there at the high school that night, between Cony and Milo. Of course those of us who love basketball wanted to stay over, so six of us stayed and the rest went home. We had a lot of time to waste before the game, so we drove around Augusta and those of us who hadn't seen the Blaine Mansion went through it. Qt last it was time for the game and it was Certainly an exciting one. ifter the game we started home and most of us slent all of the way. We arrived home rather late but we had a swell time. We all wish to thank Mr. Bartick for taking us and sharing his time. We have had a very enjoyable year working together and have nad fun doing it. Jean Johnson '51 Reminiscing ---- Can you ever forget ---- ? The day Richard was lost somewhere in the great depths of Standish High and everyone was calling out, NWhere's Hardin'?n Say, Dick, just where were you? The days you spent English period in the library, Bobby, doing research work or some such rot? Or the days Dick Roberts spent World History periods visiting in the office? The day Sharon doubled up her Hmusclen and threw that . adventurous orange in the general direction of the front of the room, during World History? That episode nearly swelled to inter- national proportions, didn't it? The day Suzanne and Roger started tossing books around, down in the Junior roon and ended up making up time for Mr. Andrews? Anyway, it was great fun while it lasted, eh, Roger? The day some of the Juniors in World History class forgot to wear their glasses and as a result were deprived of the priv- ilege of reading aloud to the rest of the class? You could always have borrowed Bert's or Ida's glasses, NGrampn1 The day Jane, Pat, and Suzanne, fell down the front hall steps? It wasn't such a hot place to try out that new jitter- bug step after all, was it? QI still think someone or his shadow pushed us, don't you, Pat?l All the days that Sherwood spent seventh period teasing Lorraine? He's a mean-n-n little keedg The periods Dave and Micky spent reading semi-classics? Napoleon and Alexander the Great sure looked terrific In the cowboy suits they wore on the covers of those books! The fun Dickie Lombard and Bobby had in their back seats down in the Junior room? It was a darned good thing that Dick brought big lunches every day! The number of mornings Daphne and Dick Harding dragged their rebellious feet into school around 8:45? Too bad the bus had to come before lst period was over, huh, UDafn? The night of the Greely game when Dave pretty nearly lost his basketball trunks? Good thing Neal was Prepared for the occasion! The Mondays and Wednesdays six or seven girls always were late for W. History? Gosh, those showers were wet, weren't they, 'BertN? The afternoons we spent down in the Junior Room making up time for Mr. Andrews? Maybe some day we will break the habit of kummdnggum during classes. QI honestly doubt it thoughj. We firmly believe in the saying that ULaughter makes the time flyn. Where humor is, we laugh, where humor is not, we make it ----- then laugh! Q11'zA1:lY16 'T'h.OIl1aS '51 J JUNIOR WILL We know that it isnit a customary procedure for the Juniors to make out a NLast Will and Testamentn but this year we feel it is absolutely necessary. We wish to be sure that all of the good f?J things we leave behind fall into the right hands... so here goes! We, the highspirited and cheery class of '5l', do hereby dip the pen and make our last will and testament as follows: First: We leave our spacious desks, whose covers lift up, to all the sophomores who will be bold enough to hide behind the lids once in a while. Warningillz The covers have a hateful and frequent habit of falling down and cracking a poor victimis head or knuckles. CReferenceg See Pat Brown and Jane Dolel WarningC2J: With a little scotch tape, and a couple of pictures, the inside of the cover may be transformed into a scenic art gallery. QReference: See Dave Nason and Micky Fosterj Second: We leave all the old candy wrappers to anyone who will keep them in good condition and provide a small corner of his desk for their safekeeping. Warning: Lick wrappers frequently to prevent molding. 1 KReference: See Dick Lombard and Bob Warej L Third: We leave the job of filling the coke machine to all the Sophomore boys with undeveloped muscles. Warning: Don't try to carry more than five full cases at once ---- the stairs are steeper than you thinkxi fRcference: See Peanut Harmon! Fourth: We leave the job of collecting empty coke bottles from the far corners of dear old S. H. S. to GVGPY sophomore girl who has an imagination and a wandering foot!

Bonnie's ambition is to become a dental hygienist. Be careful of your molars, Campbell! Student Council Members Merton Chute X Neal Marean Merton and Neal were chosen to represent our class in the Student Council. They are both interested in sports and are both good in them. Merton's ambition is toloe a physical education director. We hope he can produce a good team. Can you, Mert? Neal hopes to be a truck-driver. He has had a lot of experience already. Donlt wreck the trucks, Neal! Barbara Walker '52 Freshman Reception The class of '52 held their freshman initiation on September 16, 1949. The highlight of the evening was a jitterbug act performed by Connie Skillings and Sherman Plummer. They made such a charming couple! Clayton Libby gave a vivid portrayal of a ballet dancer. . Richard Daughter made a splendid bathing beauty in his brief French bathing suit. The sophomores,the hosts, sold sandwiches, fudge, coke, and apples. The freshmen were served refreshments free of charge which they badly needed after their exper- iences. After the initiation, there was a dance in which all freshmen had to take cart.' They were all wonderful sports and we are sure that Freshman Initiation was not Quite as bad as they had feared. All in all, they are a grand bunch and we are glad to have them with us!

Harold Warren, one of her School mates, happ ned to be passing by and saw her. He thought he would be polite and tell her. He tapped her on the shoulder and said, NYsur legs are showing.n NOh1n she said, HI don't care about my legs,they are old but my hat is new!n SOPHOMORE STATISTICS We began the school year with twenty-two students but, much to our regret three were transfered back to the Freshmen Class. They thought they could use a little more freshmen instruction before advancement. Then we started the year off with nineteen students. A few weeks later Donald Fogg of Gorham and Jean Adams of Falmouth came. That made us a small class of twenty-one students. Later Donald left and went back to Gorham because the hitch hiking to school was not always good. Now our class has twenty students. It took a long time to find out how many we did have, but finally we made out all right. We chose six of our classmates to represent us as our class officers.

Six weeks after school started the sophomores were sponsors for Freshmen Reception. The students and faculty were present and seemed to have a good time. This year we received our class rings which we like very much and hope they will last for a life time. Girls from our class playing on the basketball team were Shirley Lane and Virginia Randall. We are proud to say that Virginia got her first letter this year. More power to your efforts next year Virginia! The boys from our class that played basketball were Neal Marean, Merton Chute, Jimmy Woodbrey, and Richard Simpson. In the fall it seemed as though we had a long dreary year ahead, but, now the time has passed and here we are almost Juniors ---- Wwe hopeln Barbara Walker '52 Mrs. Damon in English ll: NMr. Burdwood, will you please stop talking so the rest of us may think about the question?W Lyle Burdwood: HI ainft said nuthin yetlu Mrs. Damon, shaking her head sadly: HI knowln Mr. Lancaster: HJane, why don't you shoot?H Jane Dole: HI can't ---- I'm all shotlu OUR CLASS RINGS . Late in September, our class rings arrived. We had been anxiously awaiting them and.were greatly pleased with them. Every class probably feels the same way but we felt that our rings were the prettiest yet. My class ring is a symbol of high school days, of the friends, the fun, the study, the joys and troubles. It is a symbol of the class working together and going through school as a group. Our rings will be a constant reminder of these days once they are past. Ardena Jewett '52 OUR HISTORY CALENDAR Many long years ago, in 4000 B.C. Too long ago to make any difference to meg The Egyptians began to make use of the sun. Their idea was a brilliant one. They started to use a calendar, This system they called the lunar. When this calendar lacked in numerous ways, They simply added a few more days. But this could not last, so a leap year Was added by Julius Ceasar. Back and forth our calendar has moved And little by little, it has been improved. Til now, it is perfect in every detail, And so foolproof that it will never fail. I must learn about it in our history. But, why I must, is far beyond mel l Ardena Jewett '52 THE SOPHOIOYES First is Ardenag she's a quiet little girl, She's always making eyes at larl. Next is Virginia who likes Hr.

He should always be neatly dressed, ' Not walking about with his pants half-pressed, ' His face should be scrubbed and shoes well-shined, And not have his shirt tail hanging behind. To girls he should be both kind and polite, And not always trying to start a fight,' The girls would appreciate it I am sure, And I bet they would like him much, much more. TO US GIRLS The boys are not perfect but neither are we, Take a look girls and you will see, Is our hair always shiny--our nails white as snow? I think if we noticed, our heads would hang low. But the thing more important than all the rest, Are the colors we wear and the way we dress, Loud colors for quiet girls are bad, They really should not start such a fad. We now have the pointers but don't look so glum, Let's show those sophomores we're not so dumbg Remember we must be polite and kind, To make the world glow like a ball of sunshine. SPRING Spring is a wonderful time of the year, When birds are singing and skies are clear, When frogs arc peeping and horses are neighing, When dogs are barking and children are playing. Oh! Who doesn't like the niqp, fresh spring, When waters are warm and birds always sing? ' When houses are cleaned from the front to the back, And Vitamin D we can never lack. Everyone knows that the winter is over When one can smell the barnyard clover. When winter and'its snows are done, We know that a wonderful season has come, , Lois Smith '55 -Freshmen Reception Friday evening, September 16, l9h9, twenty bashful, fear- ful freshmen arrived at Standish High School for the great event, the Freshmen Reception! Boys and girls alike were shaking in their over-sized shoes and biting their finger-nails, waiting, waiting, for the dreaded moment to arrive when they would have to perform before the whole student body and faculty. At last the hands of the clock pointed to eight o'clock and we were herded up on the stage like uso many frightened sheep,' by the Sophomores. The Sophomores stood by, clutching their weapons, the most dreadful of which was a piece of paper with the list of various stunts. We sang the school song very weakly fwe didn1t know the words or tune!! and each then per- formed the stunt assigned to him, to the best of his ability. There is not room enough to write about all of the dramatic performances, but here are several of the more interesting ones. Clayton Libby went thru the antics of a clown, showing off all his best tricks. Joyce Dyer displayed her ability for shadow boxing. Richard Daughter became the great and well-known, nMiss America of vk9H. This astounding beauty who was dressed in a very flattering bathing suit, drew many appreciative whistle from the audience! Several blind-folded boys ducked for apples! Sherman Plummer and Connie Skillings made their first attempt at jitterbugging. Everyone in class took part in the festivities and did his share of the stunts, Ifm sure.the audience never saw anything like it. Connie Skillings 153 F is for the friends we try so hard to make, R is for the rules we very often break. y E is the examination we try so-hard to pass, S is for the silly jokes we sometimes have in class. H is for the happy days we are sharing here, N is for the memories that we will have each year. A is for the answer we cannot often find, ' N is for the nonsense I hope we left behind. Putxthem altogether and see what you will get, Then you'll understand, perhaps, why the teachers fret. S Wou1dn't It Be Funny If ---- UDo1N was a King instead of a Prince?

For several years the Standish Kiwanis Club has held an Essay Contest for the students and has offered a worthwhile prize for the winning essay. The subject for the contest is chosen by the club and this year it was about future careers and why we plannedto follow a certain vocation. Formerly this has been a voluntary contest and only those students wishing to participate have entered. This year our English teacher, Mrs. Damon, required everyone in school to write an essay, thinking it would be good practice for us to round out a number of weeks of much needed Grammer Construction study. We demurred at first, not feeling equal to the task, and hardly knowing how to begin. Mrs. Damon was patient with us and after a number of tries we turned out a prizeworthy assort- ment of essays. We felt better about it anyway when she ex- plained the reason for it and told us what a fine thing the Kiwanis was doing for the schools in this vicinity. Much to our surprise, we found that Mrs. Damon had chosen two of the Freshman efforts among the seven best in the school. Betty Hodgdon and Janice Watson were the lucky ones. Then our essays were bundled up and given to Mr. Jack who took them to the Hollis teachers for final judgment. Our shy, brown-haired Janice won the contest for Standish High! Her essay follows on the next page, The contest was also offered to three other High Schools in our vicinity, Hollis, Limington, and Buxton, each school receiving a prize for the best essay. The winning students and their teachers from Standish, Hollis, and Limington were royally entertained by the Kiwanians at dinner and an evening entertainment at which the girls were invited to read their essays before the prizes were awarded. This must have been quite an ordeal because Janice missed school the next day. Was it the banquet or the essay, Janice? Congratulations!

Two years ago, Miss Marshall introduced the Dewey Decimal system, a com- plete alteration of the old system. This task was under-T taken and was completed last Spring. It was a colossal task, but this year it has proved valuable. New books have been introduced this year with the help of Mrs. Damon and Mr. Jack. Seventy-five dollars is voted each year for use in the library but I think much more has been given this year because we have many new books and new material. The library has just undergone its spring cleaning which took a little over a week. The shelves were dusted and each book cleaned. Many of the books need repairing and we hope to obtain a repair kit from Goefords. The following are only a few of the new books introduced Title Green Seas and White Ice Hit and Hun No Trumpet Before Him Nine Mile Bridge Arrowsmith Miracle on 54th Street Lassie Come Home No Tumult-No Shouting The St. Louis Cardinals We Live in Alaska The Boston Red Sox Sebago Lake Land The Great Globe Itself Unseen Harvests Nearby Halfway to Heaven Start of the Trail Swamp Boy The Yearling A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court The Great Heritage Our Summer With The Eskimos Victory Sunstar 8 Pepper Author Miriam MacMillan Duane Decker Nelia White Helen Hamlin Sinclair Lewis Valitine Davies Eric Knight Lois E Don Thorburn Fredrick Lieb Helmricks Fredrick Lieb Herbert Jones William Bullitt Fuess a Bastord Elizabeth Yates Jean Hersey Louise Rich Cormack 8 Lovetzki Marjorie Rawlings Mark Twain Katherine Shippen Helmricks Joseph Conrad Edna Evans We have also added a new classical dictionary, geographical dictionary, and a book of authors. We receive almanacs each year which are helpful in ref- erence work. Ellen Chaplin '50 Head Librarian MAGAZINE CAMPAIGN On September 10, we began our annual magazine camapign which continued through to the 25rd. The campaign usually lasts ten days but a weekend in between was a great advan- tage. Ellen Chaplin, a Senior, was elected campaign manager. A captain was elected for each class. They were: Freshman, Richard Brown, Sophomore, Harold farreng Junior, David Nason, and, Rachel Hines for the Senior class. Wany new magazine subscriptions were sold and quite a few renewals for magazines were taken. As time proceeded, the proceeds from sales rose to a 5rand total of 3645. The commission for the school was 5217. The campaign was run on a system by which a part of each dollar from the subscrintions was given to the school as a reward for the cooperation, enterprise, and effort expended during the campaign. The students had the privilege of selecting the premium which they desired for the school with this money. This year the decision was made to wait until next year and combine tne money from both years to buy a television set. It was also decided that if there was any money left after buying tne set, it would be Qiven to the track team to buy equip- ment or what ever seemed necessary for the athletic teams. Prizes were received by the salesmen who accumulated the largest number of points. Anony the students earning prizes were: Ardena Jewett, who received a wrist-watchg Pat Brown, and Lorraine Hansdell, who received a variety of prizes for taeir effort. Nearly every student received a premium which depended on the number of points he earned. The ten high salesmen received novelty toys. Also, cash awards and boxes of candy bars were awarded to the highest salesmen on the lst, 2nd, and third mornings. All in all, we students had a grand time acting as salesmen and are looking forward to next year when we will get the big reward for our efforts.

If- S HOME ECONOMIC DEPARTMENT The Home Economic department of Standish High School is an outstanding feature of the school. For the cooking department there are three electric stoves, one wood stove, four working units, two sinks and several utility cabinets, For the sewing classes there are three machines, two treadle, and one electric, There is also a cupboard of drawers for equipment and a closet where garments may be hung. Students taking the complete course find that they are in for more than just cooking and sewing, Mrs, Logan, our teacher, has made an excellent plan which is working out very well, The Freshmen study from books, and do no laboratory work, Their studies consist of personal and social living, good grooming, home mechanics, nutrition, the girl and her money, and child care, This program prepares them for lab- oratory work the following year and enables them to do a better job. A The Sophomores have laboratory work but they also take bookstudics such as advanced nutrition, first aid, and con- sumer buying. The Juniors and Seniors have advanced studies in child care, consumer research, home management and better buying, They also have eighteen weeks of time in which they may do anything they want to do in the line of Home Economics, Under this system Home Economic rrojects are still required of the Sophomores, Juniors and Seniors, This system is a great success and is more practical than previous systems, It enables the students to cover a wider range of'subjects in the years they study Home Economics, This year there arc six Freshmen, four Sophomores, three Seniors and five Juniors pleasing Nrs, Logan with their presence, Louise Sawyer '51 Physical Education q Mr. James Lancaster is our instructor in Physical Educa- tion. It is a course required for all students. We all enjoy these classes very much, for they provide a break in the daily routine of class work and give us a chance to nlet off steam.N In September, the boys started the season off with foot- ball. They had loads of fun throwing that HPigskinW around! The girls played softball and soccer. Later in the fall, when cold weather swooped down on us, we moved inside to the gym. We all limbered up by doing various exercises in order to procure better body coordination. Along with these exercises, we started to practice basketball. In February, both boys and girls began to play stimulating games of volley ball, but we didn't have too much time to spend on this. We had exercises on the vault box, played badminton, and then moved on to Uspeed-ball,H a game calling for wits, skill, and speed. The Physical Education course also include a physical checkup by Dr. Center, and recording of the weight, and height of each student. Lorraine Ramsdell '50 Music Class This year, Mrs. Johnson was our music instructor. She has tried hard to make good singers of us, although sometimes it seems quite a difficult task. A large part of the students take music although it is not required. We cannot do as much as we would like to, how- ever, in our forty minute periods. Patricia Brown is our accompianist, with Lorraine Ramsdell and Nola Skillings taking turns as alternates. We have been studying and rehearsing several songs which include, HBecauseU, HMy Heron, HBells of the Sean, and NDear Harp of My Countryn. The selections for graduation have not yet been chosen. Altogether, we have accomplished quite a bit this year, considering that we started late in the year. We all enjoy music period and look forward to the Thursdays, when we have music class.

L 'Jus X M. ll Tournament Games The l95O tournament games of the Triple C League were held this year at the Exposition Building in Portland, February 15, l6, and l8. This naturally caused a great deal of excitement at S.H.S. and everyone looked forward to the big evening when we were to play Cape. So when the big night rolled around everyone, including players and cheering specta- tors, was all tuned up. The first game of the evening was be- tween Falmouth and Yarmouth. Then came our game with Cape, which went very well. Our players kept ahead all the way and were victorious when the final whistle blew with a score of 58-26. This victory now meant we were to play Falmouth the next evening, The fact that Falmouth was 1949 tourney champs did not discourage our players, for they were determined to give Falmouth a good run, and that was just what they did. Falmouth got a head start on us and racked up a 15-5 score in the first quarter. In the second quarter our boys kept Fal- mouth well guarded and scored six baskets to Falmouth's one. The third quarter was very exciting and Standish really made a gain and came up with a 27-25 lead at the end o at quarter. During the fourth and final quarter Falmouth must have realized they must step on it for they passed us. When the final whistle blew they were ahead 58-55. Our players took this defeat with a smile and made us all proud to have such worthy basketball representatives. Farmington Tournament To determine whether or not we would be in the Western division of the tournament, our players found that they would have a play off game with Union High at Brunswick. On the evening of February 14, we all went to Brunswick to see our boys capture Union High with a score of 59-28. Now we were in the Western division of the tournament to go to Farmington and play Wiscasset. On February 22 we started for Farmington. During this game Stanley, Robert, Clarence, and David got fouled out. As a result we lost that game 56-42. We all had a good time, however, watching the other two games being played off after our game was over. Richard Harding '51 Manager X X-1 t. -1 X., BOYS' BASKETBALL, 1949-50 Front Row.

New recruits included: Ray Thompson, John Randall, Richard Simpson, and Neal Marean. Stanley Jackson, formerly from Gorham, joined us and proved of great value to the squad. Although at the first of the year we experienced a few minor defeats, Standish came right up for a second place in Triple C Championship.

The girls were very anxious to start playing and went into the game ' with great enthusiasm. Between December 7th and March 5lst, we played many games and the Standish girls won the victory in every case. Naturally, we feel proud of our splendid team and our successful season. We thought we played our last game January 51, but the girls were all for prolonging the schedule. We have twelve players on our team. They are: forwards: Jayne Smith, Rachel Rines, Patricia Brown, Jean Johnson, and Jane Doleg guards: Suzanne Thomas, Lorraine Ramsdell, Joyce ' Johnson, Alberta Tompson, Virginia Randall, Marjorie Webb, and Shirley Lane Every girl has put up a good fight and has enjoyed all of the games, each has taken them as a challenge and met them with her best efforts. Joyce Johnson has done a very good job this year as our Captain. She has made friends with the opposing teams and started the games off with good spirit. I know all of the girls on the team have gained by her efficiency. Mr. Lancaster's magnificent job of practicing and teaching has made the team what it is and we wish to extend to him our heartiest appreciation for his patience with us in each and every one of the games. He is a great coach and a splendid sport.

Lancaster, our coach, get out the bats, balls, and gloves. We all headed for the softball field-- about twenty gay girls ready to start practice. Every one practiced throwing the ball back and forth to get limbered up-- and warmed up. It isn't always warm on those fall days just after school opens or on those days in April and Yay, before warm days arrive. After we got limbered up, ' Ir. Lancaster separated us into teams and we took our positions and proceeded to play a good practice game. Mr. Lancaster taught us most of the fundamentals in Physical Education classes. He also helped us to develop our individual talents. We played one game last spring. That game was against Cape Elizabeth High. Then we arrived, we took one look at their team and decided then and there that we would loose. Ve didn'tll We won a glorious victory with the amazing score of 33-O3 We were very happy because we had won that game, and it taught us a great deal about drawing conclusions too early in the Came. We would have played more games this year but between boys' games, scheduled the same day as ours, and Hold man weathern, we just couldnft seem to arrange any. Ty the looks of things we will have a very good team next year. Although Jayne Smith, our star pitcher, Betty Dyer, who played catcher this year, Rachel lines, our man at third, Lois Tompson, and Edna Sanborn, are leaving this year, there will still be a grand team to win the games next year. We sincerely hope so. Jane Uole will probably take over the pitching mound, with Quzanne Thomas at first. Jean Johnson will probably be holding down second base. Others on the team who will probably be in there winning next year are: Virginia Randall, Marjorie Webb, Lorraine Ramsdell, Suzanne itrom, Alberta Tompson, Patricia Brown and Barbara Walker. we hope a lot of the Freshmen come out for softball next year and also, all of those in the other classes who want to play, so we can get a good team together. We played internurals- the Juniors against the Freshmen, the seniors afainst the Eophomores. The Juniors and Seniors won the two games, but the Juniors won the game against the Seniors. Since the larger part of our regular team are Juniors, they had a very good chance of winning. That, also, is a lot of encouragement for the future. We hope to have more games' next year. We also want to build a strong team with'eooperatkan and skill. A As the old saying goes, UPractice makes Perfect'- so we shall get out on the field and try to make our team the best ever, for the next softball season. Betty Dyer 'SO Philip Burnell .500 Baseball - Spring of '49 Standish was really on the ball this year! Again we came out fighting with only two losses in twelve games. he ended the season in a tie for second place. Under the leadership of Captain Harold Ware, and Coach Rupert G. Johnson, the Standish team proved very suc- cessful. The greatest aid in winning our games last season was high batting averages. HLumn Purnell, with an even .500 had tve highest average. Sophomore Vicky Poster ran up a high average of .422, and pitched five winning panes. He hit the only home run for Standish during the spring season.

Last fall, Standish High, led by Captain Dave Nason and coached by Mr. Johnson, played six games, five of which they won. Needless to say, their classmates and the residents of Standish were very proud of them, not only for their excellent record but also for their excellent sportsmanship and co- operation. Their record of games and scores was as follows: Apponent They We Pennell l 6 Porter 6 ll Porter 4 7 Pennell 4 6 Gorham 1 5 Gorham 10 6 Louise Sawyer '51 Quadrangle Track Meet On the afternoon of Wednesday, May 17, an energetic and willing group of boys set off for the track meet at Cape Elizabeth. The boys making up the track team, headed by James Lancaster, our physical education instructor, were Norman Martin, Raymond Thompson, and John Randall, seniors: Merton Chute, Neal Marean, and Vincent Bettany, sophomores. - Other teams competing in this track meet were Westbrook High, Cheverus High, and Cape Elizabeth. All the boys did well and represented S.H.S. very well. John Randall should be con- gratudated on coming in first in both the mile run and the 880 yard run.

As the result of a process of elimination carried on during the preceding week, five high school boys, five high school girls, and five grammar school boys, were chosen to participate in the contest. The five H. S. boys shooting were: Neal Marean, Merton Chute, Dick Lombard, Rodney Stanley and Richard Simpson. Richard Simpson, a sophomore, was the high scorer for this group, making a grand total of 18 out of 25 shots. Rodney Stanley, also a sophomore, came in for a close second with a score of 16 out of 25 trys. ' . ' The five H. S. girls shooting were: Susanne Strom, Jean Johnson, Suzanne Thomas, Eleanor Holmes, and Lorraine Ramsdell. Lorraine Ramsdell, a junior, smoothly sank 17 out of 25 placing herself way out in front for lst place. Suzanne Thomas, also a junior, came in second with a score of 10 out of 25 trys. The five grammar school boys participating were: Donald Miner, David Langly, Robert Varney, Earlon Marean, and Carl Mores. Donald Miner and David Langley tied with the score of 16 out of 25 shots. The two boys had to shoot over, to determine the lst place and 2nd place winner. Both boys were rather nervous and did not make scores as high as their former ones. Donald Miner placed lst and Dave Langly 2nd. The prizes of f,Q5.00 for lst place and E',,32.5O for second place, were awarded by Mr. Elmer Higgins, Chairman of the Boys and Girls committee. Immediately following the foul-shooting contest a basket- ball game was played between the Steep Falls 4-H club, and the Sebago Lake and Standish grammar school boys. It was the first time most of the boys had played before an audience, and they really put on a wonderful exhibition of fine sportsmanship and ability. The Steep Falls boys won by the very close margin of one point! The final score was 26-25. Lorraine Ramsdell '51 Suzanne Thomas '51 TRACK - spring l9h9 Last spring, as soon as:the baseball field dried up, Mr. Lancaster started to train his track team. Every afternoon we ran around the field with heavy boots or shoes on, until we could run no longer. We also practiced throwing the shot- put. I When the day of the track meet finally came we were all pretty excited. The meet was held at Cape Elizabeth High School, which boasted an exceptional team. Gorham and Windham were also competing. Standish accumulated a total of 32 points. The record was as follows: R Ralph Richardson 100 yard dash 3rd place John Randall Mile Run lst place Fred Thomas Mile Run hth place Ray Thompson High Jump hth place Dwayne Symbols Shot-put 3rd place Ralph Richardson MMO-yard dash 3rd place Ray Thompson MMO-yard dash Lth place John Randall Uiscus 2nd place Merton Chute Discus 3rd place Dwayne Symbols Broad-jump 3rd place John Randall 880-yard run 2nd place Dwayne Symbols 220-yard dash 2nd place Ray Thompson 220-yard dash hth place John Randall Javelin Lth place John Randall 5 Track - Fall of ' 49 In the fall, we entered a team in the annual Triple-C Fall Track Meet. We missed Ralph, Fred and Gene who had graduated in June, but Mr. Lancaster discovered a promising prospect in the new Freshmen Class, Richard Brown, whom we immediately tagged UBrownien In the meet, we conpeted against Scarborough, Cape Elizabeth, Gorham, and Windham. We were awfully proud of Dave Nason when he took first place in the 100 yd. dash and placed in three other events. We also participated in an informal track meet against Windham at Warrens Field in Westbrook. We had a swell time and also won. The record of the Fall of '49 track meet at Cape Elizabeth is as follows: Dave Nason Clarence Chute John Randall Morton Strom Clarence Chute Dave Nason Vincent Bettany Robert Ware David Nason Clarence Chute John Randall Neal Marean David Nason 100 yd. dash lO0 yd. dash Mile Run Mile Run High Jump shot-put 440 yd. dash 440 yd. dash Discus Broad-jump 880 yd. run 880 yd. run 220 yd. run lst place 5th place 2nd place 3rd place 5rd place 2nd place 5rd place 5th place 4th place Sth place 4th place 6th place 4th place John Randall '50 Captain 1948-49 TRACK TEAM First Row, Left to Right: R.

The Student Council held tryouts consisted of three old Tompson, Lois Tompson, Dolores Prince and again this year in November. A large group of students turned out. This group was gradually lessened by the process of elimination and the remaining group of peppy students appeared before the Student Council. Dol, who is only a Freshman, and Norman were chosen. We practiced our old cheers and what new ones we could find whenever we got the opportunity fwhich wasn't very often! and tried to polish up our motions. We finally made a little program and then began to think about uniforms. Theagirls decided to wear garnet pedal-pushers, white blouses, and college sweaters with garnet bow ties. Norman was decked out in a garnet Cso help me, it was as close as we could oomej pair of pants, white shirt, and bow tie. At the end of the season however, he acquired a pair of white pants, a garnet sweater which looked a great deal better than the first outfit. Norman did a numerous amount of handsprings during the season which added considerably to our cheers, while Dol and Jayne did flips---we-ll-ll, we tried. Our mistakes were numerous but they were quite unintentional. In spite of our errors, though, we all had a wonderful time and tried to do our best.

The Junior class with the aid of Mrs. Logan, Mrs. Foster, several Senior, Sophomore, and Freshmen girls, prepared the supper. Although it was our first experience at putting on a dinner, we feel that it was quite a success. Jean Johnson was named chairman of the suooer committee which was under the direction of Mrs. Logan. Jean and the other committeemen, Jane Dole, Patricia Brown, Louise Sawyer and Suzanne Thomas, helped plan the menu and then began to get things organized. On Tuesday, the day before the supper, Sherwood Libby and several of the girls brought some dishes down from the Masonic Hall, while others worked in the Home ic. room washing cups, counting silverware, making jello, and preparing stuffing for the turkeys. Wednesday, we really'put our shoulders to the wheellu Roger, NGrampN Potter, and Dick Harding out up the tables and chairs, and then the girls set them. Mrs. Dole seemed to be the only one in town who had any flowers so Jane trotted home, picked an armful, and borrowed her mother's flower baskets. She arranged the flowers very artistically in center pieces for each table. At 6:45 the dinner was served. The menu consisted of turkey and stuffing, mashed potatoes and gravy, peas, tomato juice, crackers, rolls, cranberry jelly, coffee, and jello served with custard sauce and shredded coconut. After this very delicious and filling meal, we sang several songs together with the Kiwanians. Mr. Lancaster then turned the meeting over to Mr. Johnson, who proceeded to introduce the guest speaker of the evening, Mr. Adam Walsh. Mr. Walsh is at present the football coach at Bowdoin College, but we found his Npast historyn to be even more excit- ing. Mr. Walsh attended Notre Dame college and played varsity football all four years that he was there. In his Senior year he was made captain of the team, and led his team-mates to the Rose Bowl championship in 1925. Later he coached Santa Clara, Yale, Harvard, and Cleveland Rams. M We were a little shy about asking questions, as not many of us knew too much about football, but Mr. Lancaster, who is familiar with the game, saved the day by asking numerous ques- tions which he thought would be of interest to the audience. Mr. Walsh passed on to us some very good advice which was passed on to him by his coach, the immortal Knute Rochne---- namely, nWhat height you attain on the ladder of success depends wholly upon yourself, therefore, aim for perfection, do not be satisfied with 8572 or 9075 or even 992. You may feel satisfied only when you have attained lOlZ3n Mr. Walsh added that in order to do this, you must Nget up a little earlier than the other fellow, roll up your sleeves a little higher, and work a little harder.N S.
