The Senior Year Book.—1932 14 (We hope the public appreciated “The Enemy” as much as our faculty did.) SCENE V (Assembly Hall—Special Meeting of Seniors, April, 1932) Mr. Mason (addressing us)—“After long and thorough computing of averages, we are able to announce our highest scholastic honors for the past four years. Your valedictorian is Dorothy Crandall and your salutatorian, Theresa Mata-rese; both of these girls have worked faithfully and won their rewards honestly. “Those elected to the R. I. S. H. Society for this year are as follows: Laura Walker, Althelina Capalbo, Mary Savy, Marion Brujidage, Theresa Matarese, Dorothy McKay, Dorothy Crandall, Grace Sunderland, Julius La Pietra, Anna Sisson, Ruth Kennedy, Rhoda Pengelley, Ralph Bliven, John Murano, Dorothy Rodger, Louis Trebisacci, and Virginia Roffo. “May I congratulate you, young people, upon your excellent work?” Exeunt EPILOGUE Thus the circle of the years is completed and we find ourselves again where we began—considering the matter of scholarship; and what could be more fitting in Westerly High School, the highest educational institution of the town of Westerly? In the early days of our training, we began to realize something of the value of mental growth. Now we realize it even more truly. As Freshmen, we opened the doors to knowledge, and though, in the literal sense, those well-worn doors, have closed behind us, the doors of our minds have been pushed ajar and we know that they will never close as long as these cherished memories remain. Finis. Virginia Murray.

The Senior Year Book—1932 13 (They troop into the corridor, the Seniors feeling that their dignity and destiny are duly safeguarded.) SCENE II (Assembly Hall) The rollicking Halloween Prom is in progress. Seniors lay aside their accustomed solemnity while tripping the “light fantastic toe.” “Satch” Wallace (gazing tenderly over the corn-stalks, pumpkins, and solitary head of cabbage)—“Wifey, how do these decorations appeal to you?” “Satch’s Wife”—“Oh, they’re attractive, but don’t you think last year’s class had prettier ones?” “Satch“—“It would put me in an embarrassing position to answer that question. At any rate the orchestra is excellent and the dancing divine.” To the gliding strains of “Mar-gy” they lose themselves in the maze of the dancers. SCENE III (Assembly Hall, Thursday before Christmas) Our class is particularly fortunate in having so many and such fine lettermen as: Robert Mudge, Charles Trumpet-to, Leo Dotolo, Arthur Sisson, Charles Lamb, Myer Itchka-wich and Samuel Azzinaro. Coach Rogers (presenting sweaters)—“Bob Mudge would rather not have his sweater for Christmas because he wants a clean one for graduation, but we have a sweater lor him just the same—this pretty pink baby sweater with a blue W! He will be able to wear it sometime, if he grows small.” (Mudge takes his seat in the midst of high hilarity.) Mr. Findlay (rising)—“It gives me great pleasure to present to Mr. Trumpetto, representative of the Westerly High School student body, this silver cup. It is an appropriate tribute to Westerly’s victories in football over her longstanding rival, Stonington.” Trumpetto—“I can assure you, Mr. Findlay, that Westerly High and its football team are deeply grateful for your generosity. Truly, this Christmas, Santa Claus is with us.” SCENE IV (Junior High School Auditorium—April, 1932) The Senior Class presents “The Enemy” by Channing Pollock. Time—After the Play. Miss Locke: “That was certainly a remarkable piece of acting.” Miss Stanton: “Well, we all worked with the best spirit imaginable to make it a success.” Mrs. Grenard and Miss Hanson: “We are proud of every one of you! It isn’t often that a high school cast gives a play with such a wonderful message.”
