Student Council The Student Council started on their year's trek by holding a pow-wow in the Physics laboratory on September 22. They made plans for the trip ahead and succeeded in loading the first Wagon with plans and provisions for a Curtis Pub- lishing Drive. Their first campfire was laid at Christmas when they encamped in the audi- torium and entertained the wagon train with their version of Scrooge.,' I donit think anyone will easily forget Bob MacHardy,s-'Tm-a-no-gona-say! Supplies included pencils with the boys' basketball schedule on them.

The pioneers, fearing for their lives, promptly handed over the trinkets, which he immediately took away with a pledge to buy wrestling mats and other equipment in order to build up his Indians The pioneers, recovering from their fright, hitched up their wagons and proceeded westward once again with more determination. 24

Freshman Wvrite-up Howdy, Partner! It's Chuck, the prospector! If you've been up in the hills lately, you may have heard the forty-niners say that most of the gold is out of them thar hills. Well, some may say that, but I think there's plenty of gold left that will shine in 'S2. Maybe you've seen a boy running up one of the halls, stopping to talk to someone, and then rushing off. You have? Well, it was Charles Wright, the Freshman-Class president. The other day someone stopped him to ask about Virginia Flynn, the vice president of the class. He said that in grammar school she was a quiet little girl. On February 14, though, she Wasn't so quiet. She made all of Miss Lehman's English class have their seats changed because she was talking! The nuggets may shine for the commercial group, but let's take a look at some of the college ones. Here is jean Pratt fthe class treasurer of what money we havej , who is rather cute and timid QI use the expression loosely! J . She's one of the smart kids-made the honor roll! Alice Kelson, another college student, is the class secretary. She is also quiet, but someone said she had a swell time at the Mardi Gras. Now let's turn to this group. In it, we find some boys who will be stars in sports. Football team was lucky to have a player like Bunky Buotte. He is only a Freshman, but he has already earned his NW. On the basketball court the Freshmen are doing well and will make a good team. They're all good bas- ketball material. There are many more prospectors in the Freshman class that will shine-wait and see! In school activities, the Freshmen are doing their part, too. Remember Freshman Reception and All Westbrook Night? Now we are starting some- thing new, All Freshman Night, which We hope to do each year with our class name, Club SZ, to help pay for our Senior trip. Before us lie three grand years: let's make the most of them! Do your part by studying hard and being in all the school activities you can. Then, when we become Seniors, let's look back and say we did our part in Westbrook High. CHARLES WRIGHT, 'S 2. 25
