I know a trick worth two of that.” GEORGE WHEELER If you ever feel the need of a bit of cheer, just find George and his in¬ fectious grin. We classmates have always relied on them as a certain remedy for those dull moments which have a habit of appearing in any or all classes. Whenever the teachers tire of reprimanding him on this score, there will in¬ evitably be the chewing of gum to further their annoyance. Regardless of his classroom antics, he has his serious moments, too, as shown by his outstanding work as football captain. His present interest in the scientific field will prob¬ ably lead him into his ambition of becoming an airline mechanic. Activities: Football 6 years; Baseball ' 41; Operetta ’41, ’42, ’44; Priorities ’43; Yearbook Staff; Discussion Club.

CLASS HISTORY On a promising September day in 1932, Miss Adams, the first grade teach¬ er, found herself faced by a not-so-promising group of youngsters. The mem¬ bers of this class that are still with us include Clara Ferranti, Sally Foster, Made¬ leine Homond, Alice Shaw, Martha Sherman, June Wales, Charles Foster, and George Wheeler. Beryl Enholm came bouncing into the second grade with shiny black hair, the future pigtails, flying behind. She was followed by her faithful pursuer, Kenneth King. In the third grade Ralph Quilty began his experimenting with rubber. The fourth grade must have found us in a state of suspended animation, but in the fifth grade Nancy Shaw joined us. Things did happen in the sixth grade. Ralph Quilty and Charlotte Boh- lin, our ballet dancer, departed for other shores. And do you remember the trip to Charlestown Navy Yard? When Charlotte left, we jumped up and down and shouted goodby to her, much to Miss Staples’ disgust. (We didn’t go out to recess that day!) Phil and Joe Sheehan appeared, and to the joy of all, not excepting the boys, Mary Koon arrived on the scene. We mustn’t for¬ get Robert Slater and the great love affair. The mothers didn’t approve. One day Vera Graves got very angry with Miss Staples and went stamping and cry¬ ing out of the room. Miss Staples sent Virginia Stevens after her. Vera very angrily threatened to throw a glass of water at her but ended up by only slap¬ ping her face. The next year we entranced the junior high with our entrance. There we discovered David Clapp and Snap Malloy. There were a lot of new things this year. We had bells to regulate our classes, we gave plays, and lost our re¬ cesses. Many of us went with Miss Marble on a trip to Boston, where we vis¬ ited the Customs House Tower and the State House. While we were in the eighth grade, a wolf and wolfess appeared, A1 Mac and Georgia Ragan. All the girls tried their best to steal a little glance at the Glamour Boy from Wayland.” Our freshman year had hardly started when we were saddened by the passing of Mary Harte, who had been a favorite with all. Edwin Schmittz, with a brisk hand shake; Jimmy Clark, with his amusing and annoying ways; and Betty Norton, with the reputation of a great stu¬ dent”—all joined our ranks during our freshman year. Lee Owens came in the sophomore year. She was chosen Queen of the Prom. Never shall we forget Mary Horne and Charles Briggs, who also came that year. The first-year French class was put to a complete loss by Cupid 10
