he Flight CPligbf!J Q5 the Sophomores How would you like to be in the air and unable to make a landing until 1947? Such is our dilemma! At any rate we are aboard a safe ship-the Spirit of Westbrook High. The Sophomore class is well represented by its Flight officers. They are Reginald Hall, President, James O'Gara, Vice Presidentg Everett Hanson, Secre- tary, and Sally Smith, Treasurer. They are doing a grand job of piloting. The Sophomore participation in athletics has been worthy of notice. Active in football were Wilfred Gouzie, Haddon Fraser, Paul Caron, Richard Danie, Raymond Nelson, and Clark Johnson. On the boys, basketball team were Roland Chamard, Everett Hanson, Norbert Gervais, and Roger Allan. On the girls' basketball team were Sally Smith, Joan Sullivan, Celia Philibrook, and Dorothy Chaisson. i The students who are leading in scholastic honors on this flight are Berna- dette Christman, Sally Smith, Mary Lou Sorenson, Gladys Doughty, Patricia Gaudreau, Shirley Lemieux, Celia Philbrook, and Jackie Pride. A group of Sophomores did an excellent job of entertaining the crew and passengers of the plane, when they presented a play concerning War conditions, in the last part of January. BOMBSHELLS! ! I A certain Sophoinore girl's lovely bell-like voice has been heard above the roar of the motors, for the past two years. Will a certain Sophomore boy reach the Hall of Fame, after we land, for his poetry? A certain girl has become quite a professional saxophone player. Who could she be? Q By the way, many Sophomore girls will be quite sad when the Seniors depart. A certain girl said she wasn't going to the Sophomore Hop, but we all knew better, didn't we, Joan? Many Sophomores have seen lightning and have had a very bumpy trip, so far. Let us hope that the way will be smoother for them in the remaining two years. ' MARY Lou SORENSON. Twenty-nine

Club Under the supervision of Mrs. Thompson and Miss Groves, the Secretarial Club has had a successful year. At the first meeting, the club decided it would sponsor several parties dur- ing the year, for the entertainment of all, but due to the shortage of fuel, the plan couldn't be carried out. However, the Come as you please party, spon- sored in October, was indeed a success. Games were supervised by Mr. Robinson, and everyone present enjoyed themselves. The Slf6'1l0Z6ff6', which is the greatest achievement of the Club, is published each month. Its enjoyment by every student is due to the good work of our editor, Marjorie Flynn.
