Coach Moge not only has established WHS as a leading athletic power of Western Massachusetts and New England, but what is more important has continued and furthered our school's reputation for clean sportsmanship. Under his leadership during the past year the Red and Black Bombers have enjoyed their finest overall athletic season in the history of WHS competition, gaining him acknowledgment as the outstanding three-sport coach of this section. The athletes who have shared his triumphs have received much from his influence, for there can be no greater thrill to a schoolboy than the knowledge that he helped to win the big game. The locker room scenes with The Coach after the Hol- yoke, Cathedral and Pawtucket games will stay long in one's sentimental memory. ' So it is to you, Coach William Moge and to your achievements, we dedicate this Gammadion. Congratulations for a job well done. WILLIAM B.

W Ro or FOREWORD This year the Gammadion staft presents to you, our erst- while classmates and student friends, a copy of the cherished volume which has become a tradition ot the graduating classes of our school. In compiling the Gammadion ot 1946, the statt has aimed to follow the plan introduced a year ago, whereby members of all classes might receive a copy ot the book on their activity tickets. While the contents of this year's book are the same for all students, the graduation class copies this year feature a stili binding and a cover designed with the senior colors, blue and white. All material is compiled as of March 18th, 1946. Very sincerely we hope that this book, a story of our years together, will afford to all its readers as much pleasure now, and in the years to come, as we have had in producing it.

Bowler The senior class, its school days done Lifts once again the cup to one, Who as our sponsor proved his care And chief concern was our welfare. F or your high ideals and service, too, A toast, Pop Bowler, We give to you We Point With Pride To our principal, Dr. Thomas I. Abernethy, whom we welcome back from five years of war duty. In the service of his country, he was pro- moted to the rank of lieutenant-colonel, and also received the legion of merit medal. With Dr. Abernethy as our educational director, we are confident that success and honor will ever be the distinctive marks by which Westfield High will be known to all. To Mira Poler, a member of our English department for twenty-five years. Miss Poler was also head of the guidance department, and helped to shape the future careers of many students of Westfield High. We extend to her our best wishes for the years to come. To Adelbert Iakeman, who for sixteen years faithfully served Westfield High as head of the English department. As director of publications, Mr. Iakeman focused attention upon our Herald , which through his untiring efforts was awarded first place among Western Massachusetts school papers. We, the Class of '46, and the students following us, will greatly miss his thoughtful ways of understanding. We wish him much success in his new position. To Merle F. Miles, who has returned from two years in the Navy to again take his place as athletic director. Coach will always be known for the powerful basketball teams he produced, season after season. His varied athletic experience will be invaluable in years to come. To Dorothy O'Day, who did a wonderful job with the school Red Cross Club and Iunior Canteen Good luck, Miss O'Day, in the work you are planning to do. To William Bullens, who in the two years' absence of Coach Miles, did so well as physical director Billy also devoted much of his spare time to our hockey team. I 22 l Base Personnel DR. THOMAS I.

Cautiously we approached W.l-l.S., and with eager faces peered in the open doors. Soon, however, upon entering these portals, the friendliness of sophomores, teach- ers, and upper classmen won us over, and before long We were ready for the ordeal which proved to be both exciting and eventful. Through the excellent guidance of our counselor, Miss Cutler, many of our per- plexing problems were solved. As our sponsor, Miss Keefe, organized our class and planned our first social event. Our home room teachers, who daily helped to orient us to high school life are as follows: Miss McMahon, Mr. Morrill, Mrs. Slater, Miss Pushor, Miss Leary, Miss Cutler, and Miss Keefe. ln ourselves our future lies is our motto. Red and white are our class colors, and the gardenia is our class flower. Class officers for the first semester were: Adella Iuknevicz, president, Albert Ios- lyn, vice president, Sally Harding, secretary, Ruth Campbell, historian. For the second semester, we chose Roger Warner, president, William Saltus, vice president, Ruth Stewart, secretary. f28l 9 I . 49 FRESHMAN-SOPHOMORE PARTY November l6, l945 Freshman Selections Vocal Solo and Tap: Sentimental lourney Accompanied by Ioanne Fletcher Tap Dance: Anchors Aweigh Accompanied by Barbara Coe Vocal Duet: Till the End of Time Tap Dance: At the piano, Mrs, Matthews Banjo Selections: Soft Shoe Tap Dance: At the piano, Mrs. Harold Brown Vocal Solo: l'll See You in My Dreams Accompanied by Barbara Coe Piano Solo: lt's Been a Long, Long Time Accordion Solo: Navajo Trail Entertainment Committee: N X .

CLASS GF September 5th-and the 209 members of the class of l948 climbed the 35 con- crete steps and entered the spacious portals of W.H.S. to begin a new year.

Navy blue and silver are our colors, while a pink carnation is our class flower. The energetic Mr. Iones in lO5 is our class sponsor, and Miss Murphy is our help- ful guidance counselor. Our home room teachers are as follows: Miss Guinasso, Mrs. Miles Creplacing Miss O'DayJ, Mr. Iones, Miss Percival, Miss Kittredge, Mrs. Stow, and Mrs. Roe.

We, the class of '47, have achieved that goal. One hundred ninety entered these learned portals in Sep- tember, as juniors. As of March first, eight have left our ranks for more worldly pur- suits. Our motto is Honor Lies in Honest Tail. The white rose is our flower, and our colors are navy blue and gold. Miss Coffey is our guidance counselor, and Mr. Wyman is our class sponsor. Our home room teachers are as follows: Miss lette, Miss Ripley, Miss Smith, Mr. Teubner, Miss Sawyer, Mr. Eastman, and Mr. Salford. Representing us on the Student Council are Priscilla Belden, Nancy Clark, Ioann O'Rourke, and Richard Gietek. When class elections rolled around, we chose the following officers: President, Iames O'Rourke, Vice-president, William Wesson, Secretary, Virginia Rochforcl, and Historian, Shirley Coash.

After we were given our books, lockers, etc., learned to go through the right door, and before we began our social life, we, the class of 1946, held our first class meeting in the cafeteria, in September, under the direction of Pop Bowler, our sponsor. Ah, yes, wasn't it exciting! Days passed, homework increased, friendships grew, and guess what we were all talking so excitedly about? Uh-huh, you guessed, it was the Fresh- man Party. For eats we had cider, doughnuts, and popcom balls. Before we dared glide out on the gym floor, we were entertained by our fellow class- mates. Hm-m-m! Some show-we were in the dark for a while 'cause of a blackout. But we made up for it by singing in the auditorium. Oh, yes, our elections were as follows: president, Thomas Maharg vice president, Richard Nirns, secretary, Iean Nelsong historian, Dorothy Nelson. Pretty good choice, I'd say. Douglas Williams and Iohn Fitzgerald were elected to represent our class in the Student Council. On Ianuary 27, the freshman class officers conducted the assembly. Tommy read the program, lean led the Lord's Prayer and the flag salute, and Dot read the Scripture. Dick, our vice president, was unable to attend. ' The following day the election of officers for the second term took place. Dick Gaylord was our new president, Bill Andrews, our vice-presidentg and Patty Ann Barnes was elected secretary. ' A wee bit later we discovered our class colors to be blue and white. Pro Deo Et Patria -for God and country-was our class motto, and the gardenia was chosen as our class flower. The little freshmen, as we were then known, were represented in foot- ball, basketball, track, and baseball. Ierry Benoit received numerals for play- ing baseball-some kid, huh! A few of us were in the Dramatic Club. Kay Scanlon and Dot Nelson received a Forensic League Pin for participating in the Debating Club. And it was in April sometime that we all had our pictures taken. Smile pretty -and all the excuses that were made when it was over! Finishing our first year, we had three more to go. ln September, 1943, we elected Iames Laramy, president, David Gorman, vice president, Barbara Wallbank, secretary, Patricia O'Rourke, historian. We were wise Sophomores then, no longer the babies of WHS. Again we planned the Sophomore-Freshman Party, held on November Sth. Entertain- ment from 8 to 9, and dancing to Ray Sparrow's orchestra from 9 to ll. What fun!! Our Student Council members for the Sophomore year were Iohn Milar and Barbara Rutka. Our intellectuals! More ruggeds went out for sports this year, and best of all-we had a few Sophomore cheerleaders! The canaries from our class were in the Glee Club, then under the direction of Mrs. Scott. 'Some of us were getting out the Herald , others were Barrymores and Garsons in the Dramatic Club. Well, Cld Man Winter rolled around, and so did the class elections. David Hosley was our president, Shirley Mahar, our vice-president, and Kathleen O'Rourke, our secretary. Popularity does it, ever guess? l37l Student Council elections for the junior year were Iohn Milar, Iohn Touhey, Richard Nims, and Virginia Garcia. But need they improve the school? Heck, no! Listen my children, and you shall hear- We are now in our junior year! just imagine, we were upper classmen, then! Up to this time we had been admiring those who were fortunate enough to own a class ring. Finally we had one of'our own. We all had an absolutely dreamy time at the Iunior-Senior Prom, held at the Armory, on April 27th. We girls tripped land I do mean trippedl up the stairs in our floating gowns, aided by our uneasy men, who would be quite pleased when the affair was over. But then, Ray Sparrow's music, the dimly colored lights encircling us, dancing cheek-to-cheek, quietly talking near the fountain in the center of the floor-all this made it a heavenly night to re- member. Well, to get back to facts-Kathleen O'Connor designed our lovely class banner. lt's a honey! Besides the clubs previously mentioned, we juniors, splashed around in the Swimming Club, and used our brains in the War Stamp Committee. Some of the girls did community work in the junior Canteen, and our boys played a cold game of hockey. Meanwhile, Tri-Hi and Hi-Y were going strong-so strong that they presented a Minstrel that went over with a bang! lOn Iune 14th came the Awards Assembly. Many of us received Service W pins, Ann Monahan won the History Award, Iim Atwater won the Harvard Book Prize, and Richard Nims won the Herbert R. Thorpe Iournalism Award. Congratulations, kids, good work! We presented a gift to Dr. Crutsinger, our principal, who was leaving school to be replaced by Col. Abernethy. And now, for the most important-our Senior Year! There's not a minute to waste, with class elections, class ballots, cap and gown, prom banquet, and the mcmy other committees that we work so hard on to make this the best year of all. Our officers for the first half year were: president, Bill Andrews, vice president, Virginia Garcia, secretary, Alfred Laude, historian Patty Ann Barnes. The wiser members of the class of '46 were told that they were honorably named as members of Pro Merito. Such an honor-yes! Meanwhile, the GAM- MADION was being prepared to outdo the past yearbooks, as usual. Dose kids is woiking hard! And for the last, very last half year we elected Francis Rochford, presi- dent, Dick Gaylord, vice president, Virginia Garcia, secretary. On May lOth we went to the Senior-junior Prom-for the last time-of- ficially. It was even better this year dancing to Ray Sparrow's orchestra. In Iune we had our Senior banquet, where We glanced for the first time at our GAMMADION, ate the delicious vittles, and enjoyed ourselves to the ut- most. Whew! was it hot! warm, that is! Some of our fellas were represented in the Armed forces-Thibeault, Bickford, Hess, Keeney, Ierr, and Cleary. Ta-da-a-a! Well, it's over-and what memories. We hope, that by our experiences we will succeed in the years to come. See ya' . . . fellow classmates! PATTY ANN BARNES I 381 Twenty Years Hence - - - The following is a diary compiled during the past twenty years for the class of 1946. It was collected by us'ns and presented as a gift to Adelbert M. Iakeman, the well-known fisherman and Reel Estate agent. The characters are real-at least we've tried to make 'm human, but their lives are fictitious, for which they will undoubtedly offer thanks. Ian. 13 ,... That nationally known designer, Shirl Drummond. of the Wil- liams Modeling Agency, has a brand new bathing-suit pattern. Not only is it strapless, sideless, and backless, but must be worn with an overcoat to pre- vent freezing. When asked to comment on his leading wardrobe designer's newest crea- tion, Doug offered, She's there like the sleeves in a vest, but I cannot say the same for the suit. Feb. 29 ,... This day was marked with great advances in the field of ex- ploration. Word was received from Dick Gaylord. famed globe trotter, and his band of stalwart adventurists, stationed at an isolated out-post in the heretofore unknown land of Brrrr. Brrrr, according to Eddie Haber. the chief navigator, is just a little north of the North Pole. In a special broadcast, Dick announced that the discovery would have failed had it not been for the lceberg , a specially designed ship built by Dave Gorman. Henry Kaiser's Headache. The Iceberg , it appears, has lived up to its slogan, H99 and 4411002 pure-it floats . lean Nelson. winner of the Miss America of 1964 contest, has refused a trip to Hollywood in favor of an education. Pat O'Connor. Frank Allen and Harold Ripley. judges, said the decision was unanimous. Donald Binder. re- porter, in his column yesterday said it would be the first time in Atlantds his- tory that a contestant could claim both beauty and brains. At St. Ioe, Missouri, last week, in Monko's Madhouse, the Lost Art of Vaudeville was revived. The program was a huge success due to the varied and unusual acts. First to be introduced by Ierry Benoit. M.C., were the Wydra Sisters, Helen and Leocadia, whose medical careers were side-tracked. Dot Bolton's specialty tap dance revealed the art of getting syrup from a tree. Following her, came Iohn Moriarty and his trained seal. Mort had introduced his new trick: that of balancing on a ball while a seal throws him a fish. Mar. 3 ,... A flash from Associated Press gives us good news of our male delegates to the U.N.O. Our hard-working delegates, Rudy Rumplik and Iohn Milar, have just passed their joint resolution after an amazing series of speeches lasting nine days and seven hours. This law will provide for the punishment of all barbers who eat onions between 7 A.M. and 7 P.M. on business days. Virginia Garcia, delegate to the UNO from Massachusetts, was honored at a banquet last night at Fall-in-at-Fallon's''-a new night club run by that red-headed devil, Bob Fallon. Not only was the owner present, but he sup- plied entertainment by Brad MacNulty and his ''Makes-you-wanna-sit-this-one- out music. Miss Garcia was presented a Ready Redin Fountain Pen-the kind that never needs ink,-just add Walter. Also featured at Bob Fallon's are Barb Miller and Ellen Hansen as roving reporters. On their rounds last night they met many now famous school-mates, such as Iune Rix. soon to be seen in the Diary of Boris. Serving Iune's table was Ioe Daly the singing waiter, l39l featuring his new song All of a Sudden My Heart Sings, But My Liver Has No Talent At All. With june were Kay Scanlon, Kathy O'Rourke and Shirl Mahar. chemists who have just discovered a cure for which there is no known disease. A new auto factory has been organized by that czar of the auto industry, Cliff Patino. The organization is based on Cliff's fashionable car designs. As- sisting him are Bob Pease and Spence Plaice-his partners in grime. Iane Welch. medical secretary to Dr. Helen Wielgus, announced that an- other doctor, Lorraine Wood, has opened a home branch of the SPCA-SPCA standing for A Sure to Please Cure-All . May 3 ,... Southwick Municipal Stadium was the scene of the annual lnventor's Convention this afternoon. Alfred Laude was elected Cunanimouslyl chairman of the meeting. Al's popularity is due to his shocking invention, the Watts Watt Flashlight, produced especially for students who want to throw a little light on the subject. Of interest to Westfieldites is the new hat invented by Mary F attorini and Shirley Syriac. The hat, called the Hamburger Patty , will be a boon to women who are always claiming that they will eat their hats . To insure the tastiness of the hat, Frances Boguszewski, working in accord with the girls, has created a compact with a secret compartment in which to carry salt and pepper. Iust five minutes before the meeting started, a taxi screeched to stop in front of the stadium and out jumped Tom Riley. President of the Pedestrians' Beware Taxi Service. Tom suavely opened the door for Fran Rochiord. the champion inventor of the day. Participants at the meeting were not at all surprised when F ran won first prize in the contest for the most practical invention. His prize-winning invention is the Dainty Dripless Teabag Squeezer. Dolores Loreda and Dot Liebeck, food experts, recently improved the com- mon American hot dog to the speedy weeny stage. Now they come with a GE. electric blanket wrapped around them. May 27 ,... A strange case came up in the Supreme Court this week. Helen Tenero. first lady chief-justice, said it was the oddest in her many years on the bench. Speaking of benches reminds us of the new song by Dot Nelson, entitled, The Only Reason You're Stuck on that Sailor, Mother, is 'Cause You're Sitting on a Freshly-Painted Bench. But back to justice . . . it seems Dick Cooper. head designer ot the Floral Wallpaper Co., owned by Patty Bames, was accused by a rival company of hanging a border. Dick was defended by Fred Allen and Bill Andrews, of the Allen, Andrews, and Smoltz Law Firm, who succeeded in proving that it was all a put up job. Mary Cleary, on an operatic tour, was scheduled to sing La Galumpkin in Carnegie Hall last night, but according to her business manager, Barb Dougenik. who insists that what she is business manager of is nobody's busi- ness but hers, Miss Cleary will be unable to appear because her composer, Dama Davidson, failed to supply music along with the lyrics, causing undue anxiety. june 19 ,... An amazing thing happened to Fran Adomaitis and Don Cal- I 40 1 lahan, head test pilots for Lockheed, while flying their radically designed jet plane. The two pilots were cruising over Oregon last week and decided to test the plane's speed. It picked up speed so rapidly that the two were left in mid-air over a huge forest. Fortunately, they had their parachutes on and floated softly down among the towering trees. Undoubtedly, they would have been lost had it not been for Eddie Burt, famed forest ranger, who happened along and led the pilots to a ranger station. Eddie had been out inspecting trees, endeavoring to find out whether or not a Maple's bark is worse than its blight. Pignatare's All Girl Orchestra just completed a 72 week run on Broadway. Boy! were they tired! Her chorus of Mary Pighetti, Rose Callini and Betty Noble have all branched out on different musical careers. Mary Meehan, star of the show, on the closing night rendered request numbers, among them being It's a Long Way to Woronoco . Dr. Matthew Spider Zyskowski. who only last week performed a mirac- ulous operation, recently added to his staff Shirley Burns and Ruth Lothering- ton. The girls were employed as dietitians, but it was understood that of course all food would be at their disposal to test for the patients. Francie Plusch, Superintendent of nurses, claims kitchen bills have mounted extra- ordinarily. V Iune 21 ,... Dorothy Frink and Frances Piatek, hair stylists operating a chain of beauty shops, are the girls responsible for that new hair style of wearing the hair way down over the forehead. But the police have inter- fered, it seems there were too many accidents due to women not being able to see where they were going. The feature attraction at the Valley Arena last night in a 48 round thriller was Ken Bruce the Voice Berry who, after completely' annihilating his op- ponent, sang It Could Happen To Me . Sitting in Bruce's corner with a Y.W.C.A. towel ready, was Charlie Hess. Bruce's manager, Bill Egan, patiently waited for the end of the fight. Priscilla and Marilyn Smith. noted historians of Ionesonian Institute, were at the Monday Afternoon Club , which meets every other Tuesday, Pris spoke about two and one half hours. Liggett's chain drug store was recently reorganized. Elsie Williams. man- ager, has already made one definite improvement, a complete plane schedule for those planes stopping at the drug store. Ruth Bryant, hostess, makes the store her daily stop. In fact, there's a coffee pot labeled Ruth's pan . Iuly 4 ,... Something new in magic acts has finally appeared. Last night, Messrs. Irvin Houdini Larese and Edwin Mandrake Bishop set up some neat acts of trickery. Besides the novel idea of pulling a hat out of arabbit, the performers closed with a really remarkable trick. At the end of the evening both Houdini and Mandrake left the stage ,... walked down the aisle ,... and tumed into a telephone booth. Something new in clothes designs was previewed in the Daily Blab yesterday. Shirl Siebold. head designer of the show, was quoted as saying her favorite models were Virginia Saltus. Muriel Dickinson and Teresa Pa- quette-mostly because it saved so much cloth to dress these small economy sizes . Not only does the show include a pair of redheads, Eleanor Hansen and Theresa Maynard. who are dressed in Robin Hood colors from their brc' wn l41l woody shoes to their leaf us face it green suits, but also has Iennie Dick- inson and Gloria Dibble who, with their long dark hair, are perfect models on pedestals. luly 14 ,... Broadway was taken by storm last night when producer Fred Reed presented King Sneer, a sensational forty-act play written by Iames Atwater. Entertainment is supplied by Dick Nirns, who fiddles around at intermission on his Stradavarius. ln a sparkling review, Stu Kellogg. critic for the N. Y. Times, praised the fine work of actors Les Vozzolo and Mary Nyberg. saying that they played the King and Queen as though they held three aces in their hands. By the way, Fred, we expect two passes free of Federal Tax to your great show. Lorena Densmore and Barb Washburn.. on behalf of under-privileged chil- dren, founded a new type school. No homework, no tests, no time limit on passing to class. As yet there are no pupils. Lorraine Slosek, chauffeur to teachers at W.H.S., was delayed yesterday because of snow. Noble's garage was called to Push'er. Nancy Noble. at the Wheel of a two-ton truck, had her out in no time. Mary Humason. who has her own radio show, a la television, had as her guest stars, Georgiana Pratt and Helen Prystas. who sang a couple of old time favorites. Both girls were signed by the Dentine Chewing Gum Company to sing their slogan jingles. Both were very much stuck on their job. Eleanor Fox leads the band that accompanies them, leads them, that is, when Mc- Namara is out. Aug. 3, . . . Ruth Wallis of I have a problem, doctor daily radio program, was recently presented with one of the toughest problems of her career. Before presenting the problem, we will tell a little about the program. lt is sponsored by the No Scrub, No Rub, No Lather soap company. In fact, this soap was designed solely to keep you company in the bathtub. Each day the announcer, Lovesta Nobbs, tells of the wonders of this remarkable soap while an organ played by Ruth Hewins, provides a peaceful background. Then Ruth introduces her assistants, Dot Henderson and Blaze Wysocki. who are sure of their claim that all of our problems can be solved, if only by using a .45. Back to the problem . . . On yesterday's program an attractive lady, Lu- cille Gardilds, said, I am a happily-married woman. l live in a beautiful house, and have a wonderful family. Doctor Wallis, what is my problem? The experts have not as yet solved this one but are still Working on some possible solution. Shirl Baldyga is the official tester of the new super duper Bartnicki Type- writers , manufactured by Gen Bartnicki Company. Shirl, when asked to com- ment upon the complex machine, said she had to use the Bible system, Seek, and Ye Shall Find . Sept. 5 ,... Barb Rutka. diplomat to Australia, returned yesterday from Melbourne aboard the Massachusetts . Accompanying her were Marilyn Dietz and Lilly Rodriguez. models, completing a world-wide fashion show in gay Paree. The girls were met by Shirl Zombick. who has taken over the l42l Language Department at Smith College. Anne Monahan was the' capable guide on a tour of the college. Popko's Furniture Store, run by Willy. the Bargain Boy Popko, has start- ed a new method of attracting the attention of possible patrons. In a rather large window display, fitted out as a bedroom, reclines Bob Hogan. master- tester of mattresses. But from all reports he won't have the job long, as soon afterward, Bob Case. the floor-walker caught him asleep on the job! Beverly Rising. woman Bowling Champ, has Doris Kilb. another home town girl, as her official scorer, which might have something to do with her 101 winning streak. Apparently someone forgot to mention the fact that no points are recorded for hitting the pin boy. Will Cruickshank, star and moon-gazer, who received much of his train- ing for the job during his younger days, was interviewed by Ioan Dvorchak. When asked how business was, he replied, Oh-things are looking up! Sept. 21 ,... Donna Richards. owner of a new laundry, was feted at a banquet in honor of the opening but had to leave early because of a pressing engagement. Among the guests present were Happy Harding and Marlon Ertel. who spoke on How to Iron Out Your Difficulties or Bon't Be Board . Gert Reed. who cooked the delicious meal, was hired for weeks in advance. She demands only one thing-the services of Phyllis Boisseau. her hardest- working staff member. Mary Zawada. who waited on the guest of honor only, proved so efficient she was offered an executive position at Westfield's Finest Eating Place-the Parkview. Mary declined. Mil'ler's Models, a new dress shop run by Marilyn Miller, was proved most successful, especially when her fashions were shown in the long and the short of it, namely, on Nellie Mikelis and Anna Mazeika. An associate model is Rose Nemec who appears nightly at the Butterfly Ballroom. Dorothy Goldberg and David Sayles have combined their talent to form a new publishing firm. Their first book, by Roberta Skiii, was a best-seller. The title of the book was Don't Do Anything For Your Cold, It Never Did Anything For You . Stella Iemiolo and Veronica Kielbasa recently organized a girls' basket- ball team. Among the big five , the center of attraction was Bev Steins. who is often used as a decoy against the opposing team. Anne Perzanowslci and Irene Ianisieski. forward girls, complete the team. Oct. 21 ,... According to Mary Scheip, she has just taken over her father's business. The new motto of the company is Scheip's Sure Shipping is Short- est . The business is off to a flying start with the building of additional quar- ters designed by Irma Besnia. who insists that the new wings were not added to ward off tornadoes. Of all those on her office staff, Mary says Barb Swochak leads in proof- reading the reports. In fact, she has so much time on her hands, she has be- come an expert in reading backwards. Anna Kuta, who has taken a permanent position in Agawam, was seen lunching with Kay O'Connor. head of O'Connor's Match Co. Due to mass pro- duction of the matches, they all bear a striking resemblance. In a recent report on the Nation's food situation Leonard Roberts. Secretary of Agriculture, states that if the Rain Machine developed by Ralph Hansen really works, the Nation won't have to depend on radio comediennes for an I43l abundant Corn Crop. Working in conjunction with Len on the report was Iohn Sienkiewicz, well-known author of the Care and Feeding of Baby Peas , or What To Do 'Til the Tractor Comes . Dorothy Kingsley, and Olga Kozaczek, discussing their future plans, said they intend to open a dry goods shop, although Dorothy insists it's curtains for her. One of the attractions of the shop, said decorator Iva Palmer. will be a mirror, the length of the wall. This, no doubt, will bear looking into. Hague and Hayden. a boot shop owned by the Barbara's Hague and Hayden, announced this afternoon that because of the overwhelming demand for rubbers, as the result of the recent downpour, their past customers will be the first to receive the coming stock. l-lm-rn-that's stretching it a bit! Nov. 12 ,... On an exhibition tour through the North last week, Burge Mulville. champion speed skater, proved he was a good skater by giving a special performance at the Winter Palace, a fancy resort owned by Carl Allen. The Palace is a wonderful place to spend a vacation, as it offers the best in entertainment and service. Laughs are provided by top-notch comedian Tom Mahar, who has an array of jokes that would make your ice water. Pat O'Rourke, fancy figure skater, is one of the regular entertainers at the Palace. Excellent food is supplied by head chef Dave Root. Dave is renowned for his famous dish, whom he dated three times a week. Chlastawas Hardware Store, run by Helen Chlastawa. has a novel sign in its display window. The sign, painted by Lois Taylor, reads- Soft Boiled Axe for Sale . Nov. 18 ,... It seems Chicago will always have some crime, despite the valiant efforts of its stalwart mayor, Square Deal Iohn Morris. This morning an armed bandit broke into the We May Not Know Our Onions, But We're Sure Of Our Karats Iewelry Store. Proprietor Iames Laramy said nothing had been stolen but that he had hired Special Investigator Bob Elsden. Bob made it known that although the culprit had escaped for the time being, he would apprehend him as soon as he, Bob, finds the lost horizon . Dec. 6 ,... Not since the day of Frank Buck has so much been done to civilize darkest Africa. ln an effort to introduce football to the Cannibals in the interior, Speck Fitzgerald and Ang Fioroni have gone on an expedition with their all-star football team. Evidently, things safari are going very well, and the boys will meet with success if they don't get in a stew . While on a vacation cruise in the Caribbean, Sophie Brzys and Mary Paet- zel were surprised to see a dark shape rise to the surface of the water near their boat. The dark shape turned out to be Eddie O'Connor. When questioned by the girls, he stated that he had been hired by Ray Agard, of the Agard Automatic Pen Co. Eddie's job was to go down under the sea to test pens that are supposed to write under water. Eddie also told the girls that while walking on the floor of the sea, he met Bob Boyle. Bob was searching the seas for specimens for his aquarium. We should like to close with this bit of advice-if you ever want to tell a bad egg, above all, be sure of what you have to tell and break it gently. BORIS Our marks- X lean McGowan X Dave Hosley l44l Ten Years Hencer - - Have you any scars?',' No, only the one I'm smoking. You're a card. I know, I shuffle when l walk. I sat there, stunned. So this was the comedy show they had told me about, lean and Dave, We're all the Rave. An invitation to attend their broadcast had come in the morning mail signed McGowan and Hosley, The Greatest Little Show in Radio. I had hurried to the studio and my seat be- tween Bob Hope and lack Benny, who were leaning forward, mouths open in wonder. After the initial shock had worn off, and as the jokes flew between them, my mind wandered to what I had read of the two in past years. Not that I didn't like the show, but beinq a friend of the two back at Westfield High School, I knew their routine by heart. Digging way, way back in my memory, I came up with a few highlights of their previous careers. Of course, everyone who was anyone had read Iean's novel, All Set, Let's Go, a tale of the trials and tribulations of a cheerleader. But after grad- uating from WHS, Mac led a rather stormy life bouncing around the coun- try from newspaper to newspaper, writing a sports society column entitled Gridiron Dirt. I lost track of her after a while, except for an occasional post card, and had supposed she was pushing a baby carriage in Peoria, Kansas. I was wrong as usual. For one day I noticed a paper carrying the news that she had been fired as cheerleader coach from a big mid-western university, after taking an altogether unloyal interest in a rival college's football captain. She more or less disappeared after that, and tonight was the first time I had ever seen her in eleven years. I remember reading that Dave had attended M.I.T., where he perfected the cheer, Beaver, beaver, chew, chew chew, to offset Yale's Bulldog, bull- dog, bow, wow, wow. Also that old Eli had sued and that Dave had fled to the French Foreign Legion to escape the arm of the law. Nothing was heard of him for ten years, although a rumor was circulated that a Southwick Salam had vowed to reveal the true story behind Turhan Bey. Some years later, I recall reading in the WHS Herald that a turbaned gentleman with sand in his beard had unsuccessfully tried to sell Fred Ensworth an automatic logarithm computer. He had later found a customer in Fred's fourth year math class, so I gathered it must have been Hos. That's all I had heard of him until the recent invitation. I was rudely snapped from my dream of memories by the leaning weight of Bob Hope, who had been overcome by it all. Turning my eyes toward the stage, and propping Bob up, I awaited the show's end when we three could renew our WHS friendships. IIM ATWATER I 45 I Class Will Upon the Zlst of Iune, in the year of our Lord, One Thousand Nine Hun- dred and Forty-Six, and of the Independence of the United States of America, the One Hundred and Seventieth, We the Senior Class of Westfield High School, being, through the great goodness of God, of sound and perfect memory, and accounting it our duty to set things in order, with reference to that portion of estate which God in His goodness hath given us, therefore, we do make this our last will and testament, and do bequeath as follows: ltem l. To our principal, Dr. Abernethy, our counselor, Miss Poler: our spon- sor, Mr. Bowler, and all other members of the faculty, our boundless and un- dying thanks for the generous patience and constant Worthy example in treat- ing of our numerous problems of study and citizenship. ltem 2. To the Student Council: our praise for the many tasks of rehabilita- tion which they have so ably advanced, and for the opportunity which they have afforded many of our number to become conversant with the problems of democratic government. ltem 3. To the various scholastic and athletic organizations: our admiration for their achievements in providing education and recreation to their mem- bers, and to the rest of the school. Item 4. To the members of our class who have so unselfishly and unhesitant- ly answered their country's call to the defense and occupation forces: praise and gratitude which cannot be expressed by mere words. ltem 5. To the future seniors: the charge of upholding the dignity which has always characterized senior classes in this high school. ltem 6. To all future Westfield High School classes: a record of scholastic and athletic achievement which they must not only equal at all times, but also surpass many times. This to be taken to all intents and purposes to be our last will and testa- ment, to which we do subscribe and seal this 21st day of Iune, 1946, the day and year written above. THE CLASS OF 1946 Stuart Whitehill Kellogg Witnesses: William Wesson '47 Bernard llagan '48 Donald Swanson '49 l46l Class Poem The time has come to say farewell-to part. How quickly these few years have glided by! And soon our hopes, sequestered in each heart, Shall seek the fullness of the ripened sky, But only till Life's doors, if checked by chain, Relent to us as stars that stir the night. Remember that the sun shines through the rain, And always keep our faces toward the light! There is a path for every one of us, Life holds no limitation on our course, To chart our voyage long and travel thus Is good, but better--not forget our source. Someday, perhaps, We'll turn and scan the years CBut not with nonchalant or careless eyel, We'll View the sacrifice, the trivial tears Accompanying the goal we glorify! And so farewell! For once we all agree. Farewell we must! We'll never be content Till we are on our way. For memory, We'll let this moment be our monument. And with farewell, this message let us bear: The precious things are those which are most rare. Dorothy Goldbergh Class Song Dear Westfield High, we say goodbye With sadness in each heart. ln helping us to build our lives, You've played a noble part. We'll not forget the carefree hours We've spent within your walls, But now the time has come to leave, Farewell to your dear halls. The football games, assemblies, too, The way you look in spring, The mountains that surround your fields Will happy memories bring. Alas, the 'day has finally come, For us to bid goodbye, Though we look back, We'll march ahead, So farewell, Westfield High!

Abernethy displayed exceptional meritorious conduct in the performance of outstanding service of lanuary, lQ43, to first of luly, 1945. Col. Aber- nethy, as a member of the Training Literature and Visual Aids Division, Ground Re- quirements Section, Headquarters Army Ground Forces, authorized, reviewed, and processed numerous training manuals and other training literature pertaining to the doctrines of combat operations and the tactics and techniques of infantry, amphibf ious, airborne, and parachute units, As a result of Col. Abernethy's broad un- derstanding of the fundamental doctrines of the United States Army and his profes- sional abilities in the enunciation of tactical concepts based on these doctrines, the standard War Department training literature on infantry and related subjects has been greatly improved.

The Bombers took the basketball championship of Westfield, the Valley League, Western and Central Massa- chusetts, and the State of Mass- achusetts, bowing only in the finals of the New England Bas' ketball Tournament, after pre- viously defeating the cham- pionship teams of Rhode ls- land and New Hampshire. Coach Moge also produced an outstanding football squad which ranked with the best teams of Western Massachu- setts, defeating both Holyoke and Cathedral for its major vic- tories. ln addition, a fine base- ball team was in prospect as the Gammadion Went to press.
