30 SENIOR CLASS HISTORY Four years of work and play have taken their fiight, leaving us, or many of us, at the bend in the road, wondering what will happen next. The years have passed swiftly, and, as all will agree, most profitably and enjoyably. So much has been said concerning our Fresh- man Reception that I will not say anything fur- ther. After the first two or three weeks we took an active part in the work of the school. Great joy was manifested when Ernestine Hanna and Beatrice Foster were named as members of the Prize Speaking Contest. Although they won no prizes they did credit to our class-and to their coach, Miss Lord. Our Sophomore and Junior years passed with no special events, except our trip to Augusta. Through the kindness and generosity of Mr. Alexander Spiers we were able to visit the State Capital. There we saw the Capitol building, the two houses of the legislature in session, and met the Governor. All were unanimous in voting it a very pleasant day. P Many pupils of '25 won a prominent place in the sehool's athletics. Kenneth Hawkes, Eugene Hebert, Edward Kinmond, Ellis LeBeau, and Brinton McLellan have, by their untiring work and practice, in baseball, football, and basketball, won many honors for themselves and for W. H. S. Several, indeed. have participated -in two or three lines. Roger Boothby showed what anyone could do when he really tried by securing an envi- able record in his last year. Margaret Suter- meister became a member of the basketball team her last year and is doing splendid work. Marion Emery, our star basketball player and captain, is leading her team to many victories, aided by the efficient coaching of Mr. Philbrook. Ernestine Hanna, Beatrice Foster, Frances Taylor, and Rachel Hutchins have helped make the annual Assembly Plays a success. This year Margaret Smith showed excellent talent in elocu- tion work and took part in the Prize Speaking Contest, together with Ernestine Hanna. Our class officers elected last September are as follows: President, Br-inton McClellan 3 Vice- President, Ellis LeBeau 5 Secretary and Treasurer, Wilma Babb. We have given no dances or plays this year, but The Blue Er White our time has been fairly well filled. In June many of us will probably look with envy upon the class of 1928, just finishing their first year, and with three happy ones ahead. , GLADYS TEAGUE, '25. .ill JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY September 18, 1922! An eventful date in the history of the class of 1926, for on this day we were ushered through the portals of Westbrook High School as that class of Freshiesf' Every member of that class entered with his mind filled with the highest hopes and aspirations of what he would accomplish during the time allotted him to remain there. We passed our Freshman year fully conscious of the dazzling brilliancy and intelligence of the mighty Seniors. Soon after our entrance we were honored with a Reception by that class which left some very lasting impressions on us. Our Freshman Class was very large, totaling 105 members. The Sophomore year, however, found our number decreased to 81. We regretted this loss of fellow students greatly but decided to work the more diligently to make up for it. Of course, as Sophomores, we assumed that peculiar dignity always noticed in that class. Nevertheless, this year proved us to be a real wide awake class with our share of representatives in the athletic and social activities of W. H. S. As this issue of the BLUE AND WHITE goes to press we number 67 members, the largest Junior Class in the records of W. H. S. Among the important events of the year came the election of class officers, who are as follows: President, Thomas Cairns 3 Vice-President, Nathaniel Town- send, Secretary and Treasurer, Annie Winslow. The choosing of the class, rings also afforded considerable enthusiasm. ' We feel that we have a right to be proud of the prominence of many of our classmates in the school activities. In athletics we are represented by Charles Canning, Clifford Canning, Roland Flinn, Ken- neth Morse and Nathaniel Townsend. The Junior members of the High School Or- chestra are Dorothy Emery, Robert Fredette,
