WWMWIW l'm sure you'll be interested in hearing about the strange experience I had during the sum- mer of 1955. I was spending my vacation that year with friends in St. Louis. One day, while I happened to be browsing through the newspaper, a familiar name held my glance. Whose was it but that of my old classmate, Rosemarie Smith! There was a write- up about the great advances she had made in scientific research. I was soon hurrying along the highway to her laboratory, which I had learned was in a small city not far from St. Louis. Luck must have been with me that day, for Rosemarie had just perfected a new invention. It was constructed on the style of a television set, enabling the operator to see and hear any- thing that was going on in any part of the world. She was preparing to test the machine when I drove up, so she invited me to join her. Anxiously I waited as she slowly tumed the huge finder and adjusted the focus. I We decided to take a look at Boston first. Presto! After careful adjustment, there on the screen was the image of Boston Common! And, as a further surprise, who should be sitting on one of the benches but Eleanor Capan, Beverly Sikes, and Dorothy Pringle. Upon focusing the set more carefully, we heard them talking about their work. They were receptionists in the Gov- ernor's office, and were waiting to meet Hazel Humphrey and Lucy Dickinson, two of Filene's best clerks. After the little party had assembled, they strolled down the street and turned into 'iRipley's Ritzy Diner , which was owned and managed by none other than Shirley Ripley. The quintet seated itself at a corner table, and one of the waitresses, Barbara Frink, dressed in a cute little peasant costume, took their order. lust as they received the last course, a vibrant chord of music filled the room, and over on the other side of the dance floor an orchestra was playing Rose- Marie Fouche's latest song hit, Two Red Roses. Marge Hudson nimbly fingered the piano keys, while Miriam Swing-Time Frisbie waved the baton. Our friends had finished their supper, and waved a greeting to the cigarette girl, Betty Davidson, as they made their exit. We followed them, in the hope that we might encounter some more of our school chums. Strangely enough, right around the corner a taxi drove up, and out jumped Mabel Hovencamp, just coming home from signaling in planes for American Airlines at the East Boston Airport. A second glance at the cab proved that our eyes weren't playing tricks on us-the driver was Shirley Alaconis. As she drove off, she honked a musical hello to Ianet King, who ran King's Kiddies' Korner , a day nursery for the children of career women. When we left the group and traveled down to the harbor, whom did we see but Lucille Francoeur standing on the wharf and scanning the horizon through a pair of binoculars. I wonder what she expected to see! Next, we directed our attention toward New York City. The first thing we noticed was an 42 enorniiious neon sign in Times Square, announcing the debut of Peg Lynch in a new Broad- way it. A glance at the Statue of Liberty found those three world-renowned steeplejacks, Iudy Bur- bank, Marion Barcewicz, and Marguerite Stache, dangling from the torch as they attempted to add a colorful paint job to the dull bronze. Norma Bishop and Mary Noble, the keepers of a near-by lighthouse, excitedly flashed a message in Morse code to tell them that Skipper Iean Kelley's new luxury liner was coming into port. The three girls were down on the ground in a jiffy, racing over to the pier to welcome Iean and her crew home from their first venture abroad. Chief cook, Shirley Chandler, and her assistant, Virginia Fox, asked them aboard. There was Nellie Hayden scrubbing the deck, while Barbara Wolfe, Antoinette Swikalis, Phyllis Good- win, and Arline Plouff lounged in scrumptious deck chairs, sipping lemon cokes as they dis- cussed their recent voyage. We listened in on the conversation, and learned that they had been studying art in Europe, but when, in some strange manner, they inherited a million dollars, they unanimously agreed to return to America and retire. We also discovered from their little chat that Ann Miller and Florence Polaski were doing quite nicely for themselves as the designers of several chic Paris creations. Marion Bemis, Frances Ianis, and Louise Giffin were adding a Florence Nightingale social workers who were trying to revolutionize foreign society. Suddenly, All ashore that's going ashore came blasting out Upon peeking behind this talking amplifier, we found Kanella Phillips. As there was no need to hang around there any more, we turned Radio City, and stopped to watch the universally known Rockettes go girls on the right looked strangely familiar. Sure enough-there were Rush, Iosephine Manley, and lean Williams. Nice work, girls! touch to the league of of a huge megaphone. our observation over to into their act. The four Sally Roberts, Georgia Over at Iack Powers' office we saw those rising models, Iacqueline Egan and Evelyn Daig- neault. Evelyn had just signed a contract with VOGUE as their leading cover girl. Iacqueline was the inspiration for the Egan Girl, who is rapidly replacing the old Varga Girl. On Fifth Avenue, two human, walking signposts, whom we recognized as Ruth Gladwin and Helen Zawada, were parading up and clown in front of an ultra-modem hotel, advertising the opening night of the sky garden. On the roof, among dim lights and artificial palms, we found the manager, Bessie Rutherford, and two of her more distinguished patrons, Miriam And- erson and Hazel Kingsley, both of whom were dressed in ermines and exquisite jewels. Farther down the Avenuefwe looked into a quaint little millinery shop, Viner's Hat Tree, owned by our old friend Ann. Every one of her nifty little numbers was the original creation of her designer, Marie Doering. As we directed the finder away from New York City, toward the South, we paused for a brief view of the Pennsylvania coal fields. A new town had sprung up around the rich beds recently discovered by Eleanor Szubelick and Gertrude Stache while they were exploring caves in that region. Among the host of miners who were coming up from below were Betty Nemec, Carol Cooley, and Helen Forish. Ieanne Chadbourne had charge of blowing the O.K., kids, quit whistle, which was usually sounded about fifteen minutes early. Over at Bethlehem, we found a lasting effect of the war, with lean Malonson and Rita Renaud as world famous riveters, and Grace Merchant and Arlene Washbum trying their skill at welding. ' We joumeyed on to the nation's capitol in order to see Barbara Aldrich, the first woman presidentg and found her in conference with her Secretary of State, Margaret Morin. When Doris Wingate, the Ambassador to England joined them, we concluded that maybe affairs, about which we should not at present be informed, were being transacted. So we conscien- tiously tumed away and looked farther south. ln a small city on the Iames River, we spotted Peebles and Pages' Peggy Pickles-Factory, operated by Dorothy Peebles and Muriel Page, and recently incorporated with the Hart and Harris Horse-radish Company , managed by Elaine Hart and Shirley Harris. An unusual sight on a small stream in the Appalachian Highlands took our attention. On closer observation we figured it out to be a fish escalator, resembling a portable aquarium, for carrying the fish around the falls and rapids. This ingenious device was owned by Maryellen Elander and Bemice Strong, .with Phyllis Castro acting as chief catcher, and Dorothy Schmidt, as tumer-looser. 43' At Palm Beach, Florida, we discovered Elaine Shattuck and Dorothy Knapik sprawled under a colorful umbrella, resting up after futile attempts to count the sands on the beach. ln Louisiana, we learned that the Mardi Gras had been run out of business by Strom's Snozzy Circus , which was under the direction of Olive Strom. We received quite a thrill as we watched those flying trapese artists, Ladis Niedzwiecki and Antoinette Morytko. The clown didn't fool us at all. We recognized Pauline McKinnon right away. When we looked at the animals, whom did we find to be the lion tamer but Pearl Bring 'Em Back Alive Renaud. Charlotte Liberty, with a turban wrapped around her head and a flute in one hand, was really a very fetching snake charmer. Bertha Gedmin had the unique task of keeping the monkey de-fleed. .1 After viewing the circus quite thoroughly, we started up the Mississippi, where We met a group of small tug-boats, navigated by Helen Hardina, Helen Burkott, Dorothy Reed, and Kath- leen Martin. Their cargo of birds was for the express purpose of catching the strange worms which were destroying the cotton crops on the Missouri plantations of Grace Powers and Iean Ierr. As we turned the finder westward and focused it on the Nebraska plains,'Iane Dietz's Su- per-Duper Dude Ranch loomed into view. Her best cow-hand was Eleanor Waugh. Helen Barnes and Iean Ieneral were employed to break in wild broncos. ln California, We watched while Margaret Laudato and Wanda Florek patiently tried to freeze ice cream in Death Valley. A glance at Hollywood told us that Cynthia Ranlett had been signed by Paramount Studios to play the lead in their latest picture, Queen of the Rollers. Not quite so prominent a figure was Iean Paquette, who held the position of veterinary for Bing Crosby's race horses. Betty Otis and Margaret McEwan had an established business of delivering soda pop to the movie sets for the stars' mid-afternoon refreshment. In Seattle, Washington, a new salmon cannery, which covered four blocks, was prosper- ing, much to the delight of its founder, Ieanette Petras. Among the fisherwomen employed by the plant were Dorothy lutkiewich, Wanda Kuta, Elinor Merkel, and Ann Fedora. We saw them all rigged out in their hip boots and slickers, just as they were coming in with their daily haul. Having pretty well covered the United States, we decided to take a peek into Alaska. Well, there was a strange business. Out in the middle of a snow-covered wilderness was a little shanty, owned by Gertrude Campbell, where snow balls were made to be sent to the unfor- tunate children in California and Texas. Lois White, Genevieve Williams, and Helen Iez were making and crating the snow balls. lust as they had a good supply hand, Beverlee Sizer, with her Sizer's Snappy Service dog team, drove up. Her helpers, Ruth Lamb and Thelma Bean, loaded the crates on the sled, and away they went toward the coast, to ship them on the next south-bound boat. We next looked in on the city of luneau, where, in the swankiest night club, we recognized the singer as Iean Oftedahl and the hat check girl as Pat Lawson. When we were about to turn away, Pat Welch executed a nice little song and dance number. Irene Kaczman was the floorwalker in the biggest department store on Main Street. Over in one ,corner we saw Barbara Goodhind demonstrating Kates' Glamour Goo cosmetics, which were the creation of Nellie Gates, famous dermatologist. On the other side of the store, Ruth Leonard was selling her newly perfected Leonards Luxurious Lather soap. A little farther up the street, Dot Baden operated a classy beauty parlor where she, her- self, acted as hairdresser. ln a small 'town north of Iuneau was Doris Teodore's Lonely Hearts' Club, which did a flourishing business with the numerous fur trappers and prospectors. ln the same village, we noticed Leila Holcomb's interpreting bureau, for the Eskimos who couldn't speak English, and vice versa. lust then, when we were about to focus the machine on other parts of the world, there was a terrible crash and rumble, followed by angry sputtering and blinding flashes. Rosemarie looked at me with a terrified expression as she vainly pulled wires, pushed switches, and turned buttons. lt was useless. The high voltage required to operate the set was more than the circuit could carry. As the fireworks died out, Rosemarie managed a cheery smile, for we were glad that we had at least been able to renew acquaintance with our old classmates. Glenna Cady 44 Prophecy For The Boys Westyield High School. H D Vol. 56, No. I3 WESTFIELD HIGH SCHOOL. WESTFIELD, MASS., JUNE 16, 1960 Five Cents For the past five years, the editors have been compiling ar- ticles, cut from the leading newspapers and magazines in the country, in which mention is made of any male who graduated in the class of 1944 at Westfield High School. We are pleased to report that our files are complete and ready for publication. We have at last accomplished that which five years ago we were told could never be done-we now know exactly what each boy who graduated from WHS in 1944 is doing. Realizing that the articles would have a greater interest if published as they were found, rather than in story form, we have compiled them in the form of a H erald, the school newspa- per of Westfield High School. As far as possible, we have not deviated from the Herald form, and have included many of the popular features of that news sheet. The result, a fictitious alumni issue of the WHS H erald of the year 1960. We herewith submit this compilation for your approval. New York, May 6, 1959-Madi- son Square Garden was the scene love ballads while he is perform- ing his featsg the one and only last night of the opening of the new T. and P. Bresnahan five ring circus. The Bresnahan brothers, Thomas and Philip, were featured last year in the Barnham and Bai- ley Circus under the billing of We will try anything once. They are to be congratulated in this new and costly venture, for it is the opinion of this reviewer that a cir- cus with so much pep and zeal has not been seen here in a long while. A variety of well-known circus personalities have joined with the Bresnahans in producing this ex- travaganza. Among the better known are: Donald Desmond, the amazing strong man, 'who sings John Tercyak, who won fame last season billed as the Drummer Boy . The great Tercyak continues to captivate his audiences. Music in the big top is under the able di- rection of William Shepard and the Shepard Hepcats , assisted by John Elliott, world famed trum- peter. Kitty Hawk, July 4, 1959-Paul Michael Rochford, a native of Westfield, Mass., today shattered all world records for airplane trav- el around the world. Rochford started his hop from New York, and going by way of the poles, ar- rived in Kitty Hawk, the scene of tho testing of the first airplane, just 17 hours later. 45 Among the dignitaries to greet Rochford as he arrived, were: Sen- ator Richard Mobbs, the aviation enthusiastg Maj. Donald Knightly of the Army Air Corpsg and Dana Hayden, designer of the Hayden motor used in the plane. When interviewed, Mr. Rochford stated he hoped to be able to beat his own -amazing record next year. Nome, Dec. 16, 1958-John Len- Cicki, astronomer and star gazer extraordinary of the new Lencicki observatory in Alaska, has report- ed to the world that he has, after ten years of constant experimenta- tion and research, at last found a 10th planet which he named The Kwapien in honor of his assist- ant, Fred Kwapien, to whom .Prof. Lencicki gives credit for the actual discovery. Also assisting with the discovery were: Winthrop Day, special scientific photographer, Dr. John McMahon, physicist from Harvard Universityg -Samuel Lib- erman, prominent mathematician, and Frank Wilimczyk, telegrapher, who kept the world informed of the progress of the research. More concerning this amazing find of the year will be announced shortly. New York, July 21, 1955-The opening of the new super swank Deans Club on Broadway last night was one of the most colorful events witnessed here in recent years. Manager James McCarthy and his assistants, William Crean, Donald Tryon, Raymond Fitzger- old, Raymond LaBombard, Robert Laforge, and Richard Sullivan re- ported that enough money was made during the opening night to permit each of the owners to retire with a sizeable income. Conse- quently the gentlemen have an- nounced that the opening night of the club was also its closing night. The Deans Club -here today, gone tomorrow. San Francisco, Dec. 19, 1957-A mass meeting of socialists and bol- shevists was broken up at Union Hall last night after a threat was heard from the assembled mob to set fire to Mayor Archie Agan's mansion. The meeting, led by George Wallis, chairman of the People for the State, the State for the People, and Wallis for Everyone. Committee, was held in protest of the Mayor's recent veto of a bill which would permit Wal- lis and his committee to change the name of this fair city from San Francisco to Wallisville. Aug. 11, 1959-Ambassador to Borneo, John Scanlon, was seen at the Native Club last night with an unidentified woman! Could it be that our only bachelor ambassador is planning matrimony??? -'Time will tell!?!?!? Nov. 6, 1959-Multimillionaires John D. O'Connor and Richard Quimper are planning a business trip to inspect their oil wells. Ru- mor has it that they will stop off enroute at New Orleans for other inspections ! ? ! ? ! ?

Jan. 2, 1960-Gordon Grubert and William Hall, members of the :Senate Do As You Like Affairs Committee, and sponsors of the bill to close schools every day ex- cept Saturday, with a two months' vacation every other week, will not seek reelection in the senatorial race this fall, according to a state- ment issued today by Edward Jut- kus, chairman of the Senate Com- mittee. The Senate will miss you gentlemen! ! ! March 6, 1960-Hollywood has discovered two new comedians des- tined to become the Bob Hope and Jack Benny of this decade!

SPORTS NOTES AT RANDOM Madison Square Garden, New York, May 28, 1960-Fred Sico of Westfield, Mass., middleweight champion in the eyes of the States of New York, New Jersey and Massachusetts, and Ramiro Rios, National Boxing Association titlist, took part in a they-did-they-didn't 15-round main bout at the Garden here tonight. Fans throughout the nation speculated for some time as to who would be the victor, but when it was all over, nobody won -the oiiicial decision being a draw. Referee was John Campaniello. Earl Tripp, pitcher, who'll get a tryout this spring with the Ber- nard Czanowski sluggers, pitched what was regarded as the stand- out game of 1956 against Quebec, in the Canadian American League, when he fanned 22 batters and al- lowed no hits. Nice goin' Earl. Allan Wyman now is coach with the Maple Sugar Indians, while Roger Bull manages the Boston Black Socks. Ernest Gates, after long service in the American League, begins his first season as general manager of the Elmleafs.

In the upper left hand corner was the address of the great Milstein Foundation, New York City. The letter had enabled me to secure the necessary excuse to get away from the pressing demands of business. It was from my old classmate, Richard Milstein, known to thousands of others as the great brain surgeon. Dick had written that he would very much like to see me again to talk over the old times at Westfield High. It seemed scarcely more than a few minutes before I had broughtthe autogyro down on the roof of the hospital and was shaking hands with my old friend. Dick was eager to show me about the hospital and to explain the miraculous work that was being done. On the door of the last room was printed in bold, black letters the words He- search Laboratory . Dick informed me that it was here that many of the recent great scien- tific discoveries in the field of medicine had been made. Upon my asking to meet the chief chemist, Dick tumed and nodded toward a young woman busily gazing upon some tiny or- ganism under a microscope. My surprise at finding one of the country's greatest laboratories in charge of a woman was magnified when I learned that she was none other than Glenna Cady. Glenna's work placed her among the most brilliant scientists in the nation. She was cer- tainly developing into the Madame Curie of our generation. Glenna had confined her talents not only to the laboratory but had written several popular books on science. It was through these that she had done much to explain the work and progress of scientific research. We spent several happy hours together talking about our war years at WHS, the job we had to get the gallon of gas to take the girls to the prom, and the exciting basketball games. But, like all good things, our reunion had to come to an end. As I turned to wave good- bye once again, I thought to myself that the friendships made at Westfield I-Iigh School were truly life-long and as strong today as they had been many years ago. George Wallis 47 Class History ar e i Z - TF Q Qt '-El . X, A - 5 ffl xl 5 N g yg g ln September 1940, a bright new planet swam into view. lt was our class-the Class of 1944. ln importance it was no more than a speck on the horizon, but look at it now, the leader in all school activities! We did all the customary things: elected class officers, chose our class colors: red, white, and blue, selected our flowers, red and white roses, and our motto, Try, Trust, and Triumph. Then we held our Freshman Party, which was a great success. At this event, we started the use of slides for community singing, a practice which was later adopted for devotional exer- cises. A few other noteworthy things occurred in our first year. Major Abernethy left Westfield to take up his duties with the army once again, and Pop Bowler became acting principal. Our class drew up a petition requesting that a course in Spanish be offered. A most excep- tional event was the granting, for the first time of a Service W to a freshman. ln the sophomore year, we had become more self-assured, for we now had one year of experience behind us. At our Sophomore Party, with the gym in Halloween colors, everyone had a delightful time. ln December, we welcomed a new principal, Mr, Gaylord Douglas, to whom we are grateful for fine leadership and guidance. Then came the shocking events of December seventh which have changed the lives of all of us. We sat solemnly in the audito- rium the following day and heard our Congress declaring war on japan. ln spite of the war, the old routine was much the same, and our class was well represented on the track, hockey, football, and basketball teams. Our junior year started auspiciously under a new principal, Dr. George M. Crutsinger. The big event of the year was, naturally, our Iunior Prom. The gym was appropriately decorated in red, white, and blue with our class banner hanging at one end. We danced to the music of Wendall Bradway and his orchestra. Later on, at Awards Assembly on june 3, the usual large number of juniors received their Service HW . Because of the war, several members left school to join Uncle Sam's Armed Forces, and classes were often interrupted to allow the boys to go to the auditorium where they listened to various representatives of the army and navy. At last we are seniors. This was our thought as we entered high school in September 1943, to complete our last year together. We had lost many of the classmates with whom we had been freshmen, but we had also gained some new members. When the business of elect- ing class officers was over, we made arrangements to have class pictures taken. Having en- countered difficulties because of priorities, instead of the local photographer, we engaged one from Springfield. This year, for the first time, the school play sponsored by the Dramatic Club was a combination of four- one-act plays, one put on by each class. Following this event, prep- arations were made for the senior production, You Can't Take It With You , which was pre- sented successfully. Because of prevailing conditions, the junior and Senior Proms were com- 48 bined to form the Iunior-Senior Reception which was held at the Armory on May 12. We note with pride that members of our class have been leaders in the Debating Club ever since their freshman year, with the result that our team is now tied for first place in the Valley League. It is our sad duty to record, that during our senior year, the gold stars on our service flag have increased to sixteen. Let us hope that these will complete the number of our schoolmates called upon to make the supreme sacrifice for the country we all love so well. Sally Roberts Class Will We, the Class ol One Thousand Nine Hun- dred and Forty-four, being of sound and dispos- ing mind and memory, do make, publish, and declare this to be our last Will and Testament, and bequeath the following: ' J-. ,QT First: To Dr. Crutsinger and the teachers of fx?
