We are dedicating this issue to the coaches because of their Wonderful success. We are particularly proud of these men and their teams for their constant Work from the beginning to the end of the seasons. Never before in the history of Westbrook High School have there been three championship teams to complete our sports year. But as We Worked, we began to Wonder Whether we were too athletically minded, so we have tried to bring out in this book other champions of the school Who have Worked hard in bettering students and activities. It is certainly safe to say that there has never been such a successful year in all fields in W. H. S. Mr. Frederick-G. Harlow, baseball coach, led his baseball team through the season to win the 1951 State Championship in Maine. 5Dedz'catz'on Mr. John P. Davan, basketball coach, guided the 1950-51 basketball team through an unde- feated season and finally to the height of State of Maine Champions. Mr. Philip M. Caminiti, football coach, led his 1951 team through an undefeated season. They attained the pinnacle of the F. F. division and we consider them the champions of 195 1. We are proud to dedicate this issue of the BLUE AND WHITE to these men for the time and effort they gave to bring success and fame to Westbrook High School in three fields during 1951. We are honored to have such fine men on our teaching and coaching staffs. FACULTY 4 2 .Q 2 2 2 E E . if 3 'U U :- 1-1- E P rs Q : L o B A1 L uw 1 fx 2 F, : .E : L. : 2 Q Sl 5. 5 U A Q :c 'r C Q.

We shall be leaving many things behind us: the first day of school as a Freshman and Freshman's Reception, our first formal, all the fun that we have had at dances, games, and committee meetings, the fellowship that we have enjoyed as a group, our own personal pride about things we ourselves have done or the school has accomplished during our four years. We shall be leaving the routine of the school day, broken occasionally by assemblies, the Wonderful years of football, basketball, and baseball, the fun and personal pride of presenting the annual school plays, the building with all the memories that it holds for us, and all the other things that went into making life at West- brook High School a part of our daily living. Now we have a new life ahead of us. Some are going on to college, others are going into business careers, and still others will make homes of their own. These things will have ups and downs like high school but there will be some- thing missing that we must compensate for ourselves. This is guided discipline. There will be no bells to cell us when to go from one thing to another as there were in high school. No teachers will be with us to give us advice and help make our decisions. We will be individuals working, planning, and living for our future. This challenge each of us will have to face. May we face it bravely and successfully. CHARLES WRIGHT, Class President.

Student COUUCZII The Student Council is the representative of the student body as a whole. Mr. Milton Philbrook is our advisor and he leads twenty-two students on to vari- ous activities. The Council is made up of the four officers from each class, the juniors having two extra representatives, and the four assembly oflicers which give us a total of twenty-two members. These are the students who lead the student body on to the victories which eventually give us a title of champions in all fields. One task of the Council is to raise money for the benefit of the school. To do this we have sponsored a Turkey Trotl' and a supper. The Trot has be- come a successful annual event in the school's activities. The supper was put on jointly with the Home Economics Class in honor of the undefeated football team. This year Wanda Christensen and Roberta Wfyer were chosen to represent our group in a joint Student Council Convention held in Portland. They brought back with them ideas from schools all over the state, which will surely he of benefit to us. ,,.wJ wma-M CLASS OFFICIZRS .LC U U lf. 'S .J :C E k. S U 2 L Q - 5 U F 5 : f-Z C Z x.

FCCS NYU Cullough, Wayne C M Caron, Terry Chr stcnsen, Aime XYanda jzzfziom: ou, IR bi vm T Class J ,53 The champs of Westbrook High School are the JUNIORS! For three years we have contributed much to the success of the school. We have made a cham- pionship class of ourselves. Since that first important day in September, 1949, we have taken the lead in many of the school activities but our main goal is friendship. Much of our success is due to our four class ofiicers. I shouldn't have to tell you their names, but just in case some of you have forgotten they are Aime Caron, Terry McCullough, Wayne Worcester and Wanda Christensen. Our wonderful class advisors are Miss Abbott and Mr. Caminiti. De la fama el atajo se entra por el trabajo. This is a Spanish phrase which means, The path of fame begins by work. This phrase certainly belongs to the Junior boys and girls who have worked hard and made the honor roll. By doing this in high school, they will make us proud in the future. We give special atten- tion to Sally Percival, Shirley Kinmond, Gary Ward, Wanda Christensen, Nancy Joy, Sylvia MacKenzie, Beverly May, Carolyn Phillips, Frances Stacki and Leslie Smith. Sometime in the near future we will see in bright lights the name Peter Potter? New England's Prince Charming really has made a name for himself. Keep up the good work, Peter! Sports! This Word covers games from the Little League baseball to profes- sional football. But while you are watching a game do you ever stop to think what it means? It helps the boys and girls to be honest, to be cooperative, and to be able to plan and work together. Our junior class is well represented in sports. Robert Kelly, Ralph Merrill, Odie Kourapis, Fred Ramsdell, Wayne Worcester, Aime Caron, Ron Currier, Mal Roma, Angela Hardy, Joan Robie, and Marilyn Pennell have done a fine job in basketball and will continue to do so, we are sure. We mustn't forget the girls who did such a marvelous job in cheering our teams on to victory this year. Thanks for leading us in the cheers, Carolyn Phil- lips, Frances Stacki and Wanda Christensen. I could write a book on the people who make up our Junior class. Sylvia MacKenzie, Peter Potter, Janet Manchester have wonderful singing Voices, and if you ask Virginia Gordon or Dolores LaChance what they would like to do most, I,m sure their answers would be acrobatics and dancing. Our school band has quite a few of our fellow juniors. Germaine Roberge, Dorothy Bridges, Virginia Nash and Theresa Kennie are majorettes and Robert Kelly, Roger Knight, Russell Norberg and Wayne Richardson play in the band itself. ' I am very proud to be able to belong to the Junior class of '53 and I am sure that all the other Juniors feel the same way. THERESA KENNIE, ' 5 3. Sophomore Class Silly Sophomores, that,s what we,re called, but we believe we have the characteristics of a championship class. To justify this, we point out the leaders of this class. Jackie Gaudette, president, is a hustling athlete and ambitious student, Roberta Wyer, vice presi- dent, Conrad Caron, treasurer: and Rhoda Peterson, secretary, add to the glory of the class by keeping on the honor roll. These student leaders are helped by Mrs. Ruth Fairchild and Mr. Ernest Lorett, our class advisors. Our first overwhelming success this year was our assembly. Everyone agreed it was one of the best put on this year. Calvin Dyer, quizmaster, Owen Wood, master of ceremonies, specialty acts by Priscilla Harvey and Jean Secord, Beverly Pesce and Shirley Maley, Ruth-Helen Leighton, John Weimert, and Diana VanDerVoort added to this delightful hour. On February 14, the most delicious odors came from the Legion Hall where a covered dish supper was in full swing. Again it was the class of 'S4! All the pretty waitresses were Sophomores and they hustled around proving themselves champions in the way they furnished everyone with as much food as they could eat. The Sophomores have shown another ability by gaining places on the start- ing lineup of Coach Davan's famous basketball team. Bill MacHardy, Bob Bernier, and Jackie Gaudette have sunk the baskets in honor of their class on the Varsity, while Jerry Sinclair, Don Harriman, Jim Reece, and Roly Kelson guide the V.'s. Football! ! ! Well, we have contributed here, too. Much thanks goes to the reliable Sophomores, Ronnie Johnson, Jack Gaudette, Joey Smyth, Don Harri- man, Jerry Sinclair, Dick Bernier, Bob Bernier, and others in helping the team to remain undefeated. But what would a team do without such managers? Well, we have filled this seat, too, by giving the team Dich Mitch, Carl Brandt, and Joe Basilesco. Girls? Of course we have a girls' team! The Sophomores make up the J. V. basketball team which has won 6 out of 10 games. Florence Frost, Dianne Turgeon, Pat Christian, Evelyn Libby, Beverly Lufkin, Marilyn Woods, Shirley Berube, Pat Lampron, and Jeannie Keith are among the ladies who regard basket- ball as a great sport. But of course, dramatics and music are fields which we cannot overlook. Every Tuesday morning we see Calvin Dyer, Conrad Caron, David Stevens, and Richard Willis slipping out of homeroom period to tune up their instruments for band practice. In dramatics Muriel Burnham acts very sedately while Eliza- beth Wing and Calvin Dyer advance their age with powder in their hair as they did in Our Miss Brooks. On stage or off John Wiemert is always around ready to crack jokes as Diana VanDerVoort gives a humorous reading. The next and perhaps the best quality of the class is represented by our honor roll. This year as always, the girls have a larger representation with eleven. But we are very proud of our Eve boys. The names of our honor students are Ruth-Helen Leighton, Ann Waterhouse, Roberta Wyer, Muriel Burnham, Mary Anne Garrity, Marilyn Lombard, Carole McKeague, Dawn Tetrault, Elizabeth Wing, Marilyn Woods, and Rhoda Peterson, Calvin Dyer, Owen Wood, Malcolm Chesley, Peter Thoits, and Conrad Caron. To boost the spirit of the team and student body are the cheerleaders from the championship class, Frances Chick and Priscilla Harvey. They are always on hand to assure plenty of pep. With these facts before you we are sure you will agree with us that we are CHAMPIONS in our own fields. PAT CHRISTIAN. Stars o H55 H Flash! Over the sky soared a huge meteor. It struck ground at the site of Westbrook High School. Behind it in the heavens shone brightly many constel- lations composed of tomorrow's stars. Since it was the first official appearance of these constellations, the astronomists gave them a primary or first name - Freshmen. After close study the stars were admitted to Westbrook High as its lowest class. All this happened on September 10, 195 1. One hundred and sixty-four new stars joined the older constellations in their new world. Wishing to show the older ones their sincerity and bright hopes, they elected class officers: president, Gene Waters, vice president, Betty Knight, secretary, Judy Chick, and treasurer, Beverly Roma. After school had been well on its way the biggest and brightest stars, the Seniors, sponsored a Freshman Reception in the month of October. The girls gave other moonbeams competition when they made their debuts in stunning evening gowns. In proper evening attire the boys arrived, though a little wor- ried. During the entertainment, Elaine Currier showed what she could do with a song by singing Because of Youf, Bobby Thorne provided music with his saxophone followed with songs by Peter Hay, Carleen Leconte, and Barbara Cote, and a dance by Carol Barbour. Thus our first social event was a success. Previous to this, however, in All Westbrook Night, another of our stars, Cecile Lavigne, won a prize for her skillful acrobats. Being accepted by the older constellations in all their activities, the Fresh- men were given a chance to play in the band. Among our talented instrumental groups are Peter Hay, Bill Christian, Bill Hamilton, Russell Breton, Nancy Far- well, Barrie Lovejoy, Jerry Brooks and Dave Morton. Among the brightest in our group is an artist. His name is Bobby Beaudoin. We believe that in the future his works of art will appear on the covers of Look, Life,', or Quick magazines. If this doesn't happen, he may take Al Capp's place as the cartoonist of the Lili Abner series. Included in his works of art is a portfolio of his teachers which many of you may have seen. Since it is due to sports that Westbrook has won recognition, we cannot help but mention our young hopefuls in that line. In football we have Ronnie Estes, Gene Waters, and Archie Prince. The basketball team, assisted by Gene Waters, Bill Bragdon, jim Levesque, Bill Hamilton, Larry Holston, Jim Roby, Dave Ferris, Dick Grant and Dave Burton has seen its way through many vic- tories and no defeats. A good showing is expected also in baseball and track. Although the girls haven't had many victories in basketball they are getting pre- pared for future years. Those who made the Junior Varsity are Louise Berry, Betty Knight and Judy Bailey. Other Freshman players are Ann Delcourt, Ann LaBrecque and Marilyn Record. .. Keeping the honor roll from getting rusty are those who are showing signs of developing into brilliant students. Among these are Jack Anderson, Gene Waters, Judy Bailey, Bill Christian, Barrie Lovejoy, Judy Pinkham, jim Levesque and Claire Begin. Taking a part in all school activities, the Freshman class took its place in line and put on an assembly. The assembly differed from most, since it was in the form of a carnival. Some of the highlights were its dancers, high diver, fat lady, snake charmer and fortune teller. Jean Raymond and Judy Smith made quite a hit as the dancers. We, the up and coming stars of fifty-five, hope to make our school, our teachers, and our parents proud of us by developing into good citizens. The part we play in the line of sports, music, talent and studies will always be remem- bered. To Westbrook High, we, the youngest of the constellations, pledge our future star-studded years along with our sincere loyalty to her and to her standards. CLAIRE BEGIN. You Can Be cz Champion Everyone has his opportunity to be a champion, it isn't necessary to have your name in all the newspapers, magazines, and history books. Some of the greatest champions that ever lived are just the people next door. They are champions of a way of life called good citizenship. It takes good strong character to make a champion. This character must be cultivated. You won't find it easy to accomplish, but, if and when you do, the reward is well worth the effort. Character is made up of a great many factors. Desire for it is the major re- quirement, without this you can do nothing. Another factor is faithg faith in yourself and faith in your God. You must also develop your personality and your abilities through work and observation. Accomplishing this, though, will avail you nothing if you do not have interest in and consideration for your fellow man. These are just a few of the factors needed to accomplish good character. It sounds like a long, hard road, but the majority of Americans have walked it successfully, so why can,t we? WASP IINGTOX CLUB Inu!

Washz'ng ton Club The Washington Club of 'S 2 with Philip O'Gara and Diane Lefebvre as tireless co-chairmen, aided by Jane Greenwood as secretary and Ruth Barnes as treasurer, has worked hard and ambitiously for the past two years. As a reward for their work, they will see such famous places as the Empire State Building, Rockefeller Center, Lincoln Memorial, and the Washington Monument when they take their long-awaited trip to Washington this spring. The club has raised nearly 53,000 towards expenses by paying dues, putting on a supper, sponsoring vic dances, our annual Snowflake Ball, and Club 'S 2 Night. As April 19 approaches, the 47 Seniors are anxiously awaiting the very interesting trip planned for them. This will include a two-day stop-off at New York where they will see the famous Rockettes, a visit to Philadelphia, a tour of all the sights in Washington, and a trip to the Naval Academy at Annapolis, Maryland. This year the group will be chaperoned by Mr. and Mrs. Milton Philbrook, Mrs. Rae Thompson, and Miss Eleanor Thompson. H44 Club The 44', Club is claiming to be a champion because we believe that we are one of the hardest-Working clubs in our school. The oflicers - president, Warren Robertson, vice president, Ellen DeWolfeg secretary, Alice Kelsong and treasurer, Richard Clark - help steer us to success in our various activities. Mr. Roy Robinson, our advisor, is indispensable with his wonderful guidance. We are one of the few clubs that unfailingly present a gift to the school each year. Some of the past gifts have been blackout shades and film strips. During the Christmas vacation the members undertook the painting of the Main Room, which was a pleasant surprise to everyone. We also claim the sponsorship of one of the most successful events of the year - the annual Stardust Ball. XVe are proud to say that our members are active in sports, dramatics, stu- dent government and many other happenings around W. H. S. Club The principal interest of the W Club is to get more students interested in athletics regardless of their skill or ability. Those who have been able to acquire this skill have succeeded in earning their varsity letters, making them eligible for membership in the club. Some of the activities of the W Club are the pro- moting of the intramural sports program, the grammar school foul shooting contest, and the track meet. The W Club's big social event of the year Was the Football Hopf' This year's officers are president, Hamilton Grantg vice president, Philip Bunky Buotteg secretary, Jean Pratt, treasurer, Carol LaMontagne. Quentin R. Unger is faculty advisor. Industrial Club At the beginning of the 1950 school year a few Seniors and Mr. Jensen thought it would be a good idea if the Industrial boys had a club of their own. The group decided that the Juniors should be admitted to this organization. With a little persuasion We acquired Mr. Jensen as our club advisor. Elwyn Rogers was our Hrst president. This year We still have Mr. Jensen as our leader and Olin Johnson Was elected president. His helpers are Robert Meggison, Leslie Smith, and Gary Ward as vice president, secretary, and treasurer, respectively. Most of the members are in Mr. Jensen's Industrial Science class so we meet in Room 33 on the second and fourth Tuesdays of every month at 3.00 P. M. The profit from the sale of cokes in shop, which Was 540 last year, and the dues acquired from its members constitute the income of this club. Most of the total sum is spent on a trip during the spring of the school year. Last year we had a picnic at Crescent Lake. Tony Wedge was sick because he had eaten too much Watermelon. We all ate too much so We Worked ourselves back to normal with a quiet game of softball with Mr. Jensen umpiring. This year most of us Want to see a major league ball game in Boston. If we see a good ball game or do something as enjoyable, We can feel that the 1951- 1952 Industrial Club has attained its purpose. Secretczrzbl Club The Secretarial Club, under the leadership of Mrs. Cotton and Mrs. Thomp- son, is one of the most progressive clubs in the school. The oificers are president, Diane Lefebvreg vice president, Virginia Flynn, secretary, Claudette Caron, and treasurer, Janet Meehan. At Christmas time the club used money from the treasury to buy clothing which was distributed to a deserving family in Westbrook. Another project was to install extra lights for the Office Practice Class in the typing room. Everyone looks forward to the school paper, the Stenozcfte, edited and pub- lished by this club. Some of the girls who have given considerable time to the Sfenozeffc' are Katherine Markos, Rena Gervais, Margaret Chaisson, Ellen Ritchot, June Meehan, Jackie Ritchot, Nancy Keith, and Janet Meehan. We are certain that this club, which will give good secretaries to the busi- ness world, can proudly claim the title, champion. Future Homemakers gf America The Future Homemakers of America Club is an extension of the Home Economics Classes. It was started in 1949 and is a part of the State and National Organizations of the Future Homemakers of America. The club meets periodically one evening a month, in addition to a monthly luncheon meeting. Besides the above activities which are limited to club mem- bers, the F. H. A. Club has sponsored several special projects. Among these were the Football Supper, the presentation of the Thanksgiving Assembly, and a Valentine party at which the F. H. A. groups from Gorham and Windham were entertained. Before the end of the school term, the club plans to give a tea for the mothers and sponsor a public food sale. The club has been guided through its activities by Virginia Flynn, presi- dent, Bella Gresley, vice presidentg Viola Andrews, secretary, Carol Tibbetts, treasurerg Elizabeth Waldron, reporter, Ruth Wilson, parliamentariang Clara Farley, historian. Much of the success of the club is due to Mrs. Ruth E. Fairchild and Mrs. Dorothy Simonton. C5728 French Club The French Club, first organized by Miss Jeanette Bonville, has now been under the direction of Mr. Ernest Lorett for two years. The officers elected last fall to guide the organization through a successful year are Ellen DeWolfe, president, Beverly May, vice president, Sally Percival, secretary, Mary Jane Leclerc, treasurer. The club has held its meetings every second and fourth Wednesday evening of the month in Main Room. This year the club joined with the cheerleaders and sponsored the Foot- ball Finale, which was a huge success. Our hard-working members presented the Armistice Day Assembly, depicting various scenes of War and peace. During the February vacation many of our members attended the Ice Follies in Boston Garden. A bus, financed by the club treasury, transported us together with our chaperons, Mr. Ernest Lorett, Mrs. Otis Wyer, and Mrs. Henry Wing, to the big city where We spent the afternoon walking around. We were very fortu- nate that the Weather permitted us to use our Ice Follies tickets because another trip planned for that week had to be postponed. The annual Mardi Gras had to be omitted from our activities this year because we were unable to secure a date which would not interfere with basketball, but I'm sure that next year or in the near future you will again be able to attend this popular affair. The aim of our officers and members is to build a club which will be success- ful and praised by both the student body and the faculty. At the present time we are working very hard, and in the future you can be sure that this will be a club that will top all others for the title of champion. 1311- Slcz' Club At the beginning of the new year, 1952, the ski club at Westbrook High School was reorganized after being inactive for some time. Dale Doucette was elected president and Harriet Chipman, secretary. We began our practice on Lamb's Hill where Mr. Lorett, our instructor, found what we could and couldn,t do. From there we graduated to a larger hill at North Gorham. After that we moved on to even larger hills. Finally, most of us were able to maneuver ourselves down Pleasant Mountain at Bridgton and Thorn Mountain in New Hampshire, where our first accident happened. Mr. Lorett, the only pro of the bunch, fell, breaking his ski and almost his neck. He was not able to ski after this. On February 28 we sponsored a Winter Carnival at Lamb's Hill. This is to be an annual event for the ski club if we are lucky enough to have sufficient snow. Next year we are planning to organize earlier, and we hope we shall be able to improve our group and have meets with other schools. Glas C1411 Our Glee Club, 34 members strong, is under the direction of Mr. Robert Corley and meets every Tuesday afternoon in the Main Room. Since so many were interested enough to join the club this year and to stay with us-even when we hit a sour note-we have taken a big step forward. This year the Glee Club joined its talents with the band to present a musical program in March. Not only did we have a full house, but it was enjoyed by all who attended. In April the band and Glee Club joined again to present the Easter Assem- bly. We are also looking forward to the Music Festival in Lewiston. Cliand Under Mr. Corley's spirited guidance the high school band has progressed rapidly in the past year. In comparison, we find this year's organization in a uniform and uniformed thirty-three piece group, instead of last year's fifteen- piece band with only solo instruments, for the most part. Because of this, there is now a great variety of instruments, and more varied selections can be at- tempted. This year, for the first time, the band played at all the football games, giving the team tremendous support. Leading the band in their field movements at the half were four snappy majorettes, headed by Theresa Kennie. Other appearances of the band during the first half-year were at assemblies and the school play. The second half the more experienced band really showed its ability. First, on March fifteenth, came the W' inter Concert with the Glee Club, which proved to be a big success. At this time Ellen DeWolfe and Barrie Lovejoy played a duet on the clarinet and sousaphone, respectively. In addition to this, there was a clarinet quartet which was quite polished. The next, and perhaps the biggest event of the year for those in the band, was their attendance at the Western Maine Music Festival in Lewiston, on May third, which wound the season up with a bang. Behind and in front of the band is Mr. Corley, who is building new musi- cians for his future use. He found a number of pupils in the lower grades who were interested in the band, and they are adding to its power. Another oppor- tunity open to instrumentalists is the chance to attend the meetings of the Warren Band in the new Warren Library Auditorium. The band has come a long way in the past year, and with these and other opportunities, we hope that its ability increases as much as it has in the past.

Tfhe Unrecognzied Champs More uflhampsi' of Westbrook High School are those students who give up their study periods to Work in the library, the office, or at the student service desk. What Would Mr. Philbrook do Without the girls who run errands, take notices to the classes, answer the phone, and do a dozen other things? The boys and girls in the library help Miss Abbott a great deal by taking in and lending books. The pupils at the student service desk aid visitors in Ending certain rooms and teachers, and occasionally take over a class or a study hall. These people, who never really get much recognition in the school, certainly add a lot to the required teamwork between students and teachers and, in my opinion, they ought to be called Uchanipsf' THE DARGOS AND HELPERS ARE ON THE AIR.

Our Annual Hzgh Scfloof Pfagf Many Weeks of hard rehearsing went into the preparation of this year's annual high school play, Our Miss Brooks. This comedy was truly an evening of laughter. During rehearsals, we were kept under control by the able Mr. David Brooks, director of dramatics, assisted by stage manager, John Weimert. One of the outstanding thespians was Sue Raymond. This was Sue's first attempt at acting and she did an admirable job playing the lead in Our Miss Brooksf' The plot centers around Miss Brooks endlessly trying to trap the ath- letic director QPeter Potterj, into marrying her. To complicate the plot the principal QCalvin Dyerj makes Miss Brooks take over the directing of their school play. Ted, the star of the basketball team fCharles Wrightj, besides having trouble dating two girls Cjean Pratt and Deborah Hayj, decides to try out for the play. This burns up Hugo who blames Miss Brooks, almost killing her chances of ever marrying him. Mrs. Allen of the school board CSylvia Mac- Kenziej does all she can to foul up the production. All things worked out well enough in the end, though. Ted got Jane Uean Prattj, Rhonda got the air, Mr. Wadsworth got the play presented, and Miss Brooks got Hugo. The play was enjoyed by both the audience and the cast. Who can forget Elizabeth Wing as Miss Audibon, Deborah Hay as Rhonda Allen, or Calvin Dyer as the principal? Others in cast were Doris fMuriel Burnhamj, Marge Uane Greenwoodj, Faith fjanice Hawkesj, Elsie CDottie Jensenj, Elaine fHarriet Chipmanj, Sylvia fBeverly Walshj , Miss Finch fPat Clarkel , Stanley CDonald Clarkj , and Martin QRoger Knightj.

There are in all, approximately sixty schools in the competition, thirty in Eastern Maine and thirty in Western Maine. There is one judge for each section, and that judge must choose the three schools that he feels do the best job of acting. QElaborate costumes and special scenery are not competitive elements for some schools are better equipped than others.j This year Westbrook presented The Second Guest, an intriguing, psycho- logical drama involving two characters-Major Challoner, a revengeful, retired army oilicer, and Sir James Lister, a suave and handsome nobleman, Who, because of a heart condition, was unable to serve in the armed forces. Rather, Lister chooses to steal other men's Wives With his many attractions. Having stolen Challoner's best friendis wife and cleverly murdering the unsuspecting Stanhope, Lister is now in the hands of an equally clever and subtle Challoner, who plans to avenge Stanhope's death in an almost diabolical Way. The cast co-starred Peter Potter as Sir James Lister and Cal Dyer as Major Challoner. Charles Wright was the student director and Wayne McDufHe was the stage manager. With this play Well-rehearsed and expertly directed by Mr. Brooks, the boys brought home another victory to Westbrook by Winning the Regional Con- test on March 21 at Potter Academy, in fact, the judge rated Westbrook fourth out of the thirty schools in Western Maine. QJPZZQ Speaking The annual prize-speaking contest, sponsored by the Stephen W. Manches- ter Post of the American Legion, is to be held on April 9th in the high school. As the BLUE AND WHITE goes to press, seven students, chosen at a tryout on March 17, are Working hard. The contestants and the names of their pieces are Elizabeth Wing, Millinery Madness, Nancy Joy, The Fool, Charles Wright, The Secret Life of Walter Mittyf' Ruth-Helen Leighton, The Minuetg Sally Percival, The White Cliffs, Owen Wood, By the Waters of Babylon, and Diana VanDerVoort, Mr. Hughes' Studio. The winners will have the honor of representing Westbrook in the district contest to be held in South Port- land High School. Miss Selah Richmond is in charge of this contest each year and helps the participants with their selections until each one is ready to present a championship performance.

Each class Was represented on the cheering squad this year. Seniors, cheer- ing for the last year, Were Jean Pratt, Pat Clarke, Terry Poitras, and Barbara MacDonald. Carolyn Philips, Frances Sracki, and Wanda Christensen hollered loudly for the Junior class. Priscilla Harvey and Frances Chick cheered for the Sophomores and the one Freshman to qualify for a letter was Betty Knight, Who did a grand job. A new cheerleader joined the squad toward the end of the basketball season and immediately Won the adoration of all who Watched her. This was little Susie Gaudette, a four-year-old bundle of charm. She certainly could cheer! These girls did a fine job this year. It Was their pep and vivacity that helped to keep up the spirit of the school and the teams. These girls can certainly be given a championship award for their hard Work. FOOTBALL SQUAD Fran!

Football On August 15, 1951, coaches Phil Caminiti and Bert Lorett started Whip- ping their football team into shape. Getting trained was rugged under the late summer sun, but the boys Worked hard and soon began to overcome their handi- caps. The coaches were striving for a point Where the boys would be at their maximum best, both mentally and physically, and on September 15, 1951, the hrst game, the coaches had accomplished their objectives. The boys were not only in perfect shape, but their morale Was high and they Were ready to meet the chal- lenge of all opponents, as was obvious by the results. They were now a machine with all the qualifications of being one. Every machine must have an operator and clever Toots', LaBrecque ably filled this spot. While he gave the directions, Mr. Touchdown Buotte led the way. The powerful fullback position was held equally well by Don Harriman and Jerry Sinclair. Bobby Bernier was their speedster and this made up half of their machine. Now I shall try to give due credit to a high ranking line. From end to end each one knew well his trade. Richard Swett could snag any of Bobby Currier's passes and Earl Barrows and Pete Grondin were in there fighting, too. For stability they could always lean on big Erlon Kike Knight and vicious Joe DiRenzo, and for interference around the ends or through the middle, they could depend on co-captain Frank Harrison and Bil1', Kennie being there. Last but not least we had co-captain Hammy,' Grant, who kept this great machine moving after every play. This was only their starting lineup. Each position held more than one great ballplayer. Since there were ten veteran Seniors on the club there will be plenty of room for next year's sensations. They had such men as Aubrey Baizley, a transfer from Scarboro High, Bob Jeffords, Ronald Johnson and James Lyden, raging defensive threats, plus many underclassmen such as co- captains George Doucette and Bobby Bernier, ardent leaders for next year's eleven. They expect to see Jackie Gaudette, Mel Bartlett, Ronald Estes, Edward LaBrecque, Dick Levesque, Robert Landry, Mal Roma, joe Smyth, James Reece, Stan Theriault and two Freshman stars, who made their letters, Gene Waters and Archie Prince in next year's limelight. With this great coaching staff and a great bunch of boys, they made a clean sweep of their season's games. They topped all glories of bygone days. With an untied, unbeaten record through the entire 1951 season, I declare that they are the uncrowned champions. Freshmen Football Team Here are a few brief notes on the Freshman football team. Coached by Freddie Harlow, they went on to a very successful season. They had a record of four wins and one loss. Although they did not shine in the limelight this year, we should remember that they are the future varsity of Westbrook High. This team was made up of the following players. As ends they had Roger Vaillan- court, Royden Belanger, and Bill Haskell. As tackles there were Robert Ferron, Charles Gemmell, and Charles Day. As guards they had Richard Ferron and Jim Roby. The centers were Ronny Estes and Carl Currier. In the backfield as quarterback they had Ronny Stultz. As halfbacks were Jerry Sickles and Gene Waters. They had Archie Prince at fullback. The record they built is a good sign for the future of Westbrook High. A strong Portland High Freshman squad was among the teams they had beaten. If things keep up this way, Westbrook may soon be in the league with the larger triple Fw schools, as in basketball and baseball. GENE WATERS.

While doing this we compiled a total of 26 consecutive wins before losing to St. John's High of Massachusetts in the New England Tourna- ment at Boston Gardens. This year,s Westbrook High Blue Blazes, still under the able leadership of Coach John Paddy Davan, began the season with the title THE TEAM TO BEAT. We faced a tougher schedule this year with the addition of one game with Bangor, two with Portsmouth High of New Hampshire, and one with Waterville. We lived up to our name and built our consecutive wins up to 35 before being defeated by Bangor High, the same team we defeated last year to win the State Championship. We then compiled a total of six more consecutive wins, including a 28 to 26 victory over Deering, who again this year played their slow stalling brand of ball. There was a S8 to S0 thriller, which we pulled out in the last few seconds against Morse High of Bath. Then our second sad defeat by South Portland and our third and last defeat of the season followed right after at the hands of Portsmouth High of New Hampshire. Next came a win over Cheverus High, which was a see-saw battle until the final two minutes when Westbrook rallied to come out on toip of a 60 to S3 score. We journeyed to Waterville for our last scheduled game of the season, were ahead all the way and finally won, 53 to 43. For the 4th straight year we were leaders in the M. P. A. point system in Western Maine, which again made us heavy favorites to win the tournament. We drew tough Stephens High of Rumford for the preliminary round, who had a tough veteran team with a lot of scrap. We defeated them in a thriller, 5 2 to 49, as tall Tony Wedge came into his own, scoring 28 points. The semi-final was another torrid scrap against Cheverus High fwhom we had beaten twice in the regular seasonj . The game was close all the way until the end when we rallied to win, 47 to 37. In the final game Lewiston High stood between us and our second straight Western Maine Tournament and a chance for our second straight State Cham- pionship. We were defeated by a tall, rugged Lewiston High team, 65 to Sl, in a game that had all the excitement of any tourney final. We finished a very suc- cessful season with 19 wins and 4 defeats including tournament games. Coach Davan again gave us one of the outstanding teams in the state. We were led by our pepper-pot playmaker, Captain Phil Bunky Buotte, who played his third year of varsity ball. He was selected on the All-Tournament team and received the George H. Vinall trophy for good sportsmanship and out- standing play. Another of our boys, Anthony Tony Wedge, was also selected on the All-Tournament team. He was a standout in all three Tournament games and was high scorer for the tournament, collecting 68 points in three games. The third Senior on the squad was Earl Tiger Barrows, playing his third year of varsity ball. Earl, along with XV edge, was our big rebound and scoring punch. Three Sophomores, jackie Gaudette, Bobby Bernier and Billy Mac- Hardy, seemed to fit into Coach Davan's style of play very smoothly. Without a doubt, these boys will all be stars when they reach their Senior year. Two valuable reserves, Fred Ramsdell and Butch Currier, both Juniors, saw a lot of service this year and should help the team considerably next year. Other men seeing service were Rollie Kelson and Jerry Sinclair, Sophomoresg and Wayne Worcester and Bobby Kelly, Juniors. Out of these four Coach Davan picked Kelson and Kelly to make up the ten man tournament squad. With undefeated Freshman and Jayvee teams and the loss of only three Seniors from the Varsity squad, hopes for future championship teams at West- brook High look bright. CYDQZB V Al. V.

Coach Phil,' Caminiti had as his starting five, Mal Roma, Don Harri- man, ujerryi' Sinclair, Wayne Worcester and Bobby Kelly. His reserves in- cluded Odie Kourapis, Rollie Kelson, Jimmie,' Reece, Diddie Merrill, Robert Porell, and Stan Theriault. These boys have not only built up a good record for themselves, but they have been of valuable assistance to Coach Paddy', Davan through scrimmages by keeping the varsity men on their toes. Freshman qiaslcetball In their own class our Freshman basketball team were champs. They fin- ished the season undefeated, ably coached by our guidance instructor, Mr. Charles Thompson. Mr. Thompson had twelve men on his squad. His first five were: Gene Waters, Billy', Hamilton, Billy Bragdon, Jimmy Levesque, and George Fecteau. These five players had plenty of height with good ball-handling abil- ity. Their very able substitutes Qwithout whom no team would be completej were Larry Holston, Ronnie Stultz, Red Ferris, Ronnie Estes, and Jimmie Robie. Coach Paddy Davan may well find future champions in this year's Fresh- man squad. Cfllanagers Do you think success could be had without our managers? You form your own opinion, but I shall present the facts. Think of all the bruises Jon Barton receives from Mr. Davan when he grabs him instead of a substitute. Can he take it? Sure! l And what would we do without the toughest of all managers, Joe Baselesco, who orders Carl Brandt and Phil Foley to care for the rugged gladiators of the football squad? Now we come to the most talented of all managers, Red Robinson, the only person who can jump three inches off the ground and break his leg when he lands. The most ambitious of all managers is Dick Levesque, who arrives an hour after practice begins and leaves an hour before it ends. But even in the short time he is there he accomplishes much. Of course we can't forget the lady manager, who is shy but Very friendly. Ginny Flynn flies around between the hospital and the basketball court and does a good job at both. One of her major jobs is to hold the jewelry during practice. But all joking aside, these students really work very hard in preparation for the games. They are the most important cog in the machine. Coaches, worries are during the game, while the managers, worries are before, during, and after the game. They have to line the fields, dry the uniforms, collect the balls, and soothe the coaches and a hundred other different things.

Our team captured the Telegram League and State Championship. When we entered the final game with South Portland, we had a 12-3 record and were tied with the Capers for first place. We won the game 4-3 in ten in- nings behind Bill Cary, ace moundsman. The winning play turned out to be the double-squeeze which Coach Harlow had had the boys practicing all year. We drew a bye in the first round of the State Tournament and faced South Portland again in the second round. With another close game expected, a large crowd turned out. Cary again held the Capers and we pounded out a 7-1 vic- tory. With South Portland out of the way, we faced Lewiston. Cary went to the mound again and we smacked Lewiston, 9-4, to win the Western Maine Championship. This gave us the right to meet Presque Isle for the State Cham- pionship at Bangor. Cary went to the mound and pitched tremendous ball to hold Presque Isle to three hits. We won the game, 9-0, and ended a very suc- cessful season. As anyone who followed the team could see, it was built around ace south- paw Bill Cary, who pitched terrifically all year. Bunky Buotte rounded out the other half of the battery doing a great job of receiving Cary's southpaw slants. The infield gave Cary good support during the year. Mal Roma was at Hrst base, Freshman Bob Bernier was at second base, and Joe Morse was at third base. Bob MacHardy, the batting star of the club, was at shortshop. The speedy outfield consisted of Larry Robicheaw, a great defensive outfielder, in left, Toots LaBrecque, a former second baseman, in centerg and Dick Fortin, a transfer from Cheverus, in right. A good spot pitcher was Erlon Knight, who had a 3-0 record. Reserves who played an important part were Jackie Gaudette, Armand Caron, Wayne Worcester, Maurice Harvey, and Bob Barrows. Cary, Buotte, Robi- cheaw, and MacHardy were selected for the All-Telegram League Team, While LaBrecque, Morse and Fortin were given honorable mention. A great deal of credit should be given to Coach Harlow, who brought the team through in beautiful style. His knowledge of baseball and his love for the world's greatest game inspired the team throughout the season.

They lost to Morse, placed third in the Suburban meet, and picked up points in the Bates Relays and the State meet. The team led by Claude Daniels and Clarence Barter included Dick Swett, Donald Harriman, Bill Kennie, Leon Smith, Frank Harrison, Bob Jeffords, Gerald Sinclair, Hamilton Grant, Alfred Wilson, Reginald Christensen, Bob Meggison, jim Reece, Anthony Wedge, Bill Pierce, and Larry Swett. To give Mr. Shaw more time with his Driver Training, Mr. Thompson will guide this year,s tracksters. There are great prospects of having a tremend- ous season this year. In Dick Swett we have an all-around trackman. Bill Kennie and Hammie Grant will be great in heaving weights, while Frank Harrison, Don Harriman, Gerry Sinclair and Bunky Buotte will be competing in speed. We have exceptional distance men such as Anthony Wedge and Jim Reece. Assistant Coach Bob Meggison, one of last year's sensations, will combine with Coach Thompson to make this a great season. We hope that we may come out of the season with a title of champion, too. 1 i s 'dS'i-'ally VVATCH OUT, MR. SI-IAXV! THEY'RE STILL YOUR STUDENTS! 5DPz'ver TPUZ'HZ'Hg Class Under the expert and patient guidance of Mr. Shaw, the driving classes began last September in a car generously furnished by Marster's Chevrolet Company. As Mr. Shaw explained the fundamentals and began teaching us about shifting gears, We Were all sure that We would never be able to do it half as quickly and easily as he did. Soon, though, We were driving out on the open road learning things like signalling, passing, turning corners, etc. During these afternoon sessions, Mr. Shaw very seldom lost his temper. In fact, he never did yell at anyone, he just said quietly, Let's try it again. By the time the day of our driving tests arrived, We were quite confident, but as We sat Waiting to take our oral tests, nearly all of us were very jittery. When it came time to take the road tests, I, for one, was nearly a nervous Wreck! After it Was all over, though, We were sure there had been no need for all that Worrying, because all but a few came through with flying colors. mam SOME MEMBERS OF THE ART CLASS BUILDING THEIR DREAM HOUSES. MPI' Room Tour Most of you are so busy with activities that I'm afraid you've overlooked one of the most interesting courses in school. Another reason might be that you have been unable to find it, since it is tucked away in such a remote corner. To show you how interesting our Art Class is, let us take a trip to this secluded corner of Westbrook High. We descend two flights of stairs to the basement of the old school. The art room is located in the farthest northern corner of the building, next to the exit that leads to the shop. In this dark corner of the old building we find an art work shop, set up for each individual's learning and expression in the art field. Several students are engaged in the building of modern housing models. Another group are discuss- ing the designs and decorations for the annual Stardust Ball. Traflic models are being designed and painted for distribution at busy intersections of school loca- tions. Gooey papier maehe is being manipulated to come out as animals and masks of every description, size, and form. For relaxation and creative urge, several are enthusiastically engaged in the art of Hnger painting. Oil painting, lettering and poster designs are but a few of the many other interesting projects that take place in this room throughout the year. This special course has a program so planned that there is something worth- while for every student who is in any way interested in art. For you who have not taken aft a great treat is in store, so we advise you, before the final planning of your next year's program, to sign for art. Art Classes meet Monday and Thursday at 2.00 P. M. Remember it's a date for the new school year! THESE BIOLOGY STUDENTS XVATCH INTENTLY AS MR. ROBINSON PICKS A BONE NVITH TI-IPM. 5Bz'o1og3f You may think that biology is a very difficult subject because of the daily quizzes and drawings, but believe me, these are the things that help the most. Quizzes make you do your daily work, and drawings show you what you're studying about. Biology is the science of life, including a study of the development, struc- ture, and behavior of living organisms. Mr. Robinson always does his best to answer the many questions that we bring up-some very silly. In this course there is never a dull moment. That is because every day brings forth a new phase of study which keeps a person's attention at all times. Notebooks are made up and passed in at the end of each ranking period. Our marks are based on the quality and quantity of our work. Oral reviews are always a lot of fun. Mr. Robinson is always anxious to see how many of us can remain seated, so when someone misses an answer that person stands up. He usually gets the whole class on their feet and then very proudly sits back in his chair and looks at us. As you can see, this subject is very interesting and loads of fun. In making your next year's schedule I suggest that you seriously think of working biology into your program. ADA'S PANTOMIME PROVES THAT ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS. Speech Class It is our firm belief that the speech class of '52 is one of the best that Miss Richmond has ever had. Miss Richmond has never informed us of this fact, but, since the students of today are encouraged to think for themselves, we will stick with this opinion. Having a small class, we are able to cover a lot in the course of a year. We find our speech Work very interesting, particularly because of its va- riety. One week we may Work on the correct pronunciation of sounds and the next week put our knowledge to practical use by telling stories. We have just finished studying diacritics-you know, the uwigglyn things you skip over in the dictionary, and at the present time we are doing pantomimes. So, if you should pass by Room 2 and see Kenny Esty in front of the class, tongue-tied, and having a fit, don't run for Mr. Philbrookg Kenny's probably only Washing his car. Seriously, the speech class is not only fun, but very helpful. You Won't meet any pupil who has ever taken speech, suffering because he has to appear in an assembly. is THESE FRESHMEN SEEM TO ENJOY STUDYING THE GROWTH OF THE TURKISH EMPIRE. 6728 Freshmen Hz'story Class History! What a boring subject. That is probably the attitude of most people toward history--that is, most people outside of the Freshman history class, which is taught by Miss Pauline Abbott. In the short time spent in high school, we, the Freshman history class, claim there is not another like it. To prove our point, let us give you some examples of the knowledge we have attained. An exposure of art, literature, law, government, religion, education and war has been made to us. Over four thousand years of history beginning with the early Egyptians leading up to Wfcrld XVar II have been covered. Also studied were the conflicts between church and state, which began be- tween the monks and feudal lords in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries, which led to the establishment of modern Catholic and Protestant churches. Although we pretend to serious studying we have had many amusing and humorous times. Our goal in the future is increased knowledge of our modern world. With that in mind we look forward to many happy days with great anxiety. Hnun.,,,, DRESSES IN THE MAKING! Home Economics We, the thirty-six members of the Sophomore class, are being trained in the art of home making. That does not merely cover the Held of sewing and cooking, it branches out covering any number of jobs needed to encourage good home and family living. For instance, a student teacher, Miss Pauline Bodzioch, conducted a home nursing class which will prove valuable in both home and community life. In addition to laboratory and classroom work the girls undertake a Christ- mas project, which is of their own choosing. This past year some of the girls made gifts, children's toys and holiday decorations. The sewing division accomplishments of the Hrst half-year were aprons Qfor their lab workj, pajamas and children,s clothing. No girl can make a mistake by choosing the home economics course, because home economics will become a great part of her future, not only in helping her to earn a living, but in the care of her future home and children.

I shall never forget that first day in our shorthand class. Mrs. Thompson distributed textbooks to all her eager and ambitious pupils. However, when we opened the books and saw those characters our ambition was soon lost. You can be sure that we were soon hard at work transcribing Qtranslating is what we called it at firstj the Hgures and learning what they meant. Not long afterward we were able to read two or three pages quite fluently. When our mid-year exams arrived we could take dictation Qwith the help of our booksj. Now Qmid-Marchj we can take 60 to 80 words a minute without our books. Mrs. Thompson, with her everlasting patience, has been a tremendous help to us. She always has a good word to encourage us poor, troubled, Juniors, and we hope that some day we shall be able to repay her by being good, efficient secretaries. POTENTIALLY-VVHAT? 5DPaftz'ng When he looks at a blueprint of a machine part, a Workman knows what kind of material he must use to make this part, exactly what it will look like when it is Finished, how much material is required and what kind of operations he must use to have it Ht its mother machine. When he sees a hole, he knows whether it has to be drilled, seamed, or bored. That is why Mr. Jensen would like to have us thirteen future draftsmen realize that being a draftsman is not only acquiring the art of drawing something on paper, but it means knowing what every mark that you put on that paper means to a workman, so the signals could not be crossed. We are learning a new language, just as important as French or English. This new language is needed because one would need to write a manuscript to describe in words a simple drawing exactly to measurement. To draw something one must visualize the object, imagine the construction of this object to the exact measurement, and thus know how to read and write the language of the industry. As in any other specialized trade, practice is a I'l'luSt. But we must remember that the time spent in acquiring this new language will all be compensated for if this boy or girl Qsome girls have passed this subject with better grades than averagej becomes a successful worker in the technical branch of industry. For instance, Neil Patterson, who is now making the plans of his future house, may some day in the future make plans for a new Westbrook High School or some other project in Westbrook. Or Shine Gagnon may design his modern drive-in grocery store here in W'estbrook. These are only two of our potential draftsmen. HONOR YOUR PARTNER! 5Pl2ysz'eal Ea'ueatz'on The girls, and boys' physical education classes combined this year to learn some square dances. From the girls' point of view, I know, it was enjoyed by most of us very much. It wasn't that we didn't like the regular physical educa- tion classes, it was just a big job to get into our gym suits and sneakers, go' through the warm-up drills, play some sort of game and get dressed again. Square dancing was a change that pleased everyone. Mr. Quentin Unger, physical education director, taught us two dances this year, Heel and Toe and Dip and Divef, Not only did we have lots more fun having mixed classes, but we gained enough confidence to take part in public square dancing. ill- ,4 ll? I Qwsvf , X ' K x 7 X E51 XL V H In terviews Everyone has been discussing the sports situation, so we thought we would interview some of the people who really know. These included Mrs. Hender- son, Mr. Harlow, Mr. Caminiti, Mr. Davan, and Mr. Thompson. 1. Why are some sports important? The answers to this question were practically all the same. Each one said that sports prepared young people for later life by building character, sportsman- ship, and good health. 2. Which sport is the best and why? Mrs. Henderson: I think field hockey is the best because it is a good team sportf' Mr. Harlow: They,re all good, but baseball is the best because of the long seasonf' Mr. Caminiti: All sports give the same training. Mr. Davan: A sport with a carry-over into later life-such as golf and skiing-is the best. Mr. Thompson: The best sport is any one of a number of popular activi- ties. Track beats them all because it offers unlimited variety and can be aspired to by all types of athletes. Everyone knows it is the backbone of the Olympic games. 3. Do you think this is the outstanding sports year? Naturally, everyone said that it definitely is, considering the three cham- pionship. 4. Can we do it again? The general answer was that We possibly could, but it would require a great deal of work by the boys. 5. How do sports compare with your high school days? Mr. Harlow and Mr. Caminiti agreed that the boys were the same, but that the rules have been changed. Mrs. Henderson: The girls did not play games with other schools. They played only intramurals. The rules have changed greatly. I think the rules were better before they were changed. . Mr. Davan: They are much different. The fundamentals are the same, but the rules have changed. The boys specialize in one sport, whereas in my high school days they played more kinds. Mr. Thompson: There is no comparison. The boys today are better coached, there is greater emphasis on sports, and the rules are radically changed, especially in basketball and football. The kids are the same. I have a hunch that if we had had uniformed bands and comely cheerleaders to spur us on, we would have done and died harder for dear old Rutgers. 6. Do you think that sports are over-emphasized? Mrs. Henderson: They have not been over-emphasized since September. They are over-emphasized for the boys in larger universities. Boys are admitted to college and receive scholarships because of their sports when they wouldn't otherwise be accepted. Mr. Harlow: No, it is impossible to over-emphasize sports. They are very important to a high school, it would be very dull if the pupils didn't have some- thing to cheer for. Mr. Caminili: No, not in high school, but possibly in college. It must be guarded against, though, in high school when the fan takes over outside? Mr. Darwin: t'They are over-emphasized to some extent. They concentrate too much on the minority group rather than on the majority group. Also there is too much stress on winning. Mr. Thompson: 'lBy the school, no, but I can't help but observe that the community is perhaps overstressing the importance of athletics. Can you imagine a crowd of three thousand turning out to a school play or a band concert? These are the opinions of some of our own coaches on sports. What's yours? You Put Up A Tough Fzght, Boys, But They Won The men faculty of Westbrook High School won two games over two prominent Westbrook City League teams, the Gladiators and the Flying Scots, made up of high school students. The gate receipts went to the Red Cross. The amount-S39.10. Admission was ten cents a head! The average age for the victors was 40 years! ! ! Those of you who didnit see the games, here's what you missed .... Outstanding speed was shown by Fearless Fred Harlow, of baseball fame. High scorer was Philip Up, Up and Away Caminiti, sturdy football coach, excellent ball handling was displayed by David Bo-Bo Brooks, hard working English teacher and dramatic coach, Charley Flash Thompson, guidance di- rector, proved his ability for setting up plays, great assistance by sparkplug Leslie 'tSneaky Marston, who outwitted the slow moving high school boys by his strategic playing, John Boneheal', Bohan, the pro of the second game, drove the Scots into the floor by his marksmanshipg the Terrible Three, Quentin Muscles Unger, Ronald Driver Shaw and Ernest We're Going Through Lorett, rugged helper of our football team in practice, completely out-dazzled the bewildered athletes. You know our boys actually thought they were going to win. A good time was had by all and we understand that the referees, Bobby Bernier and Toots LaBrecque, are expecting A's,' in some of their subjects. ANONYMOUS. Typical Wi H S.

Stay at one! I don't care! I haven't a thing to do this afternoon, anyway. Aha! So Billy's late, too. Ha! Ha! Huh? Well! He isn't staying at one! Playing favorites, Hmph! just because she knows his father! If I made the lst team and got 100's in daily quizzes I wouldn't have to stay at one, either. He cheats on his quiz though. Maybe if I sat in front of the teacher's desk I'd get 100's every day, too! Gee! I can't help it if my homework keeps me up late! Oh, well, maybe I can sneak out early! Q4 Baseball Players Dream The months from June to September quickly pass, And here I sit in my favorite class. There is work I should get gone, Instead I dream of the games we've won. It's March, and baseball does approach For Freddy Harlow, Westbrook's coach. Football and basketball fans may cheer, But baseball tops all sports of the year. Come on, each loyal Westbrook fan! You know Freddy's a mighty man. If we win, everything is swell! If we lose, we all live in -! But that is the way everywhere you go The fans demand a winning show. When you lose, forget all alibis. No one listens to moans or sighs. There's the score, and you feel so blue. You tell why you lost, but the coach knows, too. Next time we'Il win! says Coach, with a smile And after that, you win quite a pile. Now it is time for the end of the class. I hope this poem's good enough to pass. By BOB CURRIER. Up To Bat As I came up to bat Two men were out, The pressure was on me Of that I'd no doubt. The crowd went silent As I stepped up to bat, The future of Westbrook Lay solely in my hat. The pitcher Wound up The ball came by, The ump said strike But I couldn't see why. I held my breath For the second pitch, The umpire said, Strike twof' I told him I knew. Then came the third and final pitch, The ball is now lying in some distant ditch. The crowd went wild, And the coach just smiled As I said with a sigh, I knewI could do it for old Westbrook High.
