This meeting was planned by the reliable officers of the club: President, Bob Garlandg vice president, Myrna Miltong secretary, May Hill, and treasurer, Lew Clark. The business of the club was taken up in the Passion Pit, QMr. Robinson's recreation roomj, and the remainder of the time was spent at a roast on the beach. All members had a wonderful time. Another one of the many activities of the club was an interesting and en- lightening tour through the Guy Gannett Building in Portland. Our outstanding achievement of the year was the annual Stardust Ball. At this semi-formal cabaret everyone had a wonderful time dancing to the smooth music of Eddie Manning. Enoch Barton. The purpose of the club, by sponsoring many extra curricular events, is to raise money to buy a gift for the school. Last year we donated 5550.00 to buy film strips for all the classes. This year's gift will be presented at the closing assembly. To end a wonderful year of success the club will journey to the Pine Point Inn for their annual banquet, where the oliicers for the forthcoming year will be introduced.

.lgrezikman eminidcencea Who'll ever forget September 7th, 1949? Not I, for on that day we, the grad- uating class of 1953, became students of Westbrook High! Amid new clothes and stiff notebooks, six scrambled lessons took place, hundreds of new faces scared us to death, and oversized history books made our eyes pop out. Little greenhornsf' they called us. This roused our fighting spirit and caused us to plunge into the battle of education with victorious intention . . . anxious to show these envied upperclassmen just how green we were. So, for the first few weeks, we buried our noses deep in our textbooks and produced such scholastic aces as Roger Knight, Gary VVard, Jacqueline Ritchot, Shirley Kinmond, Janet Hawkes, Angela Hardy, Wanda Christensen, -Ianice I-Iodgkins, Sylvia MacKensie, Beverly May, Virginia Nash, Sally Percival, Carolyn Phillips, Lois Tucker, Marilyn Pennell, George Doucette and Leslie Smith. In honor ratings, the Freshmen have so far been exceeded by the Seniors only. When sports rolled 'round, the Freshmen grabbed a good hold on the re- bounds Qbasketballj and got on the ball with stars like Mal Roma, Diddy Merrill, George Doucette, Pewee Brassard and Bob Kelly. The girls made suc- cessful showings with Marilyn Pennell and Joan Tetrault. Intramurals found: Basketball Qgirlsj-Frances Stacki, Sally Percival, and others, field hockey-Caro lyn Phillips, Frances Stacki and Sally Percival, and others, basketball fboysj- Diddy Merrill, Bobby Kelly, George Doucette, Mal Roma, Pewee Brassard, and other sports-minded stars. In other extra-curricular activity, Peter Potter thrilled us all with his voice which until late last year, no one knew he had. Un singing, that is.j I trust most of the students in Westbrook attended the jolly Fool's Frolic, a dance party devoted to the school fools. Freshman .Ion Barton walked away with the title School Fool, and the Freshmen Harry LeClaire, Diddy Merrill, Amie Caron, Odie Kourapis also won the prize for the most foolish presentation of the evening faltho' I don't know as this is an asset to our side of the battlej. Thus, by Feb- ruary, the upperclassmen had lost a lot of their haughty scorn and had even be- gun to look upon us with a little pride for their own proteges. And so, in the be- ginning of the third quarter, we're on our feet and joining the victory march.
