Ah! It's slowly clearing! There's a sign outside a small kindergarten. It says Busy Brats' Kindergarten ----- Carolyn Baker, Superin- tendent. Two rather tired but happy teachers here are Carol Scagliarini and Lorraine Rich- ard, graduates of Bridgewater State Teach- ers' College. Many more scenes are now coming in- to view. At the local greenhouse we see that several windows are broken. It was reported that some of the pupils at the Busy Brats' Kindergarten rolled a boulder from Kelly's Mountain, named for the great explorer John Kelly, through the side of the greenhouse. The co-owners ofthe greenhouse, Pat Bezan- son and Janice Nicoll, complained to the chairman of the school board, John Burbine. This matter was then taken to the Police Department, and Police Chief John McKenna sent Sergeant Ray Pina to investigate. The affair was peacefully settled when the owners of the greenhouse agreed to move to another location. ln Washington, D. C. , there is a ter- rible racket! What is it? It's Alwyn Hol- brook and Russell Meiggs building a mansion for the millionaire Paul Harrington, who has made a fortune selling his book How to Play Pool and Win Every Time. Mr. Harargu recently purchased a baseball team and is counting on the pitching of Dick Braley and 'Bob Butler to win the pennant. Next we see the Palace Theater in New York. Joyce Emmons is impersonating the famous singer Gloria Gurney, who just made her debut in Carmen. Next on the program is the dance team of Burns and Murray. An- other treat is the new comedy team of Phil Staples and Ernie Morgan, which has recently returned froma tour of army camps. Photo- graphers June Onulak and John Harmon are busily taking pictures of these great acts for next month's issue of Snap It. published by Ed Donahue and Jack Redgate, with reviews written by Mary Bayley. AI an airport we see severaljet pilots preparing to break all speed records previ- ously set on the Moon, Mars, and Miami Air- line. They are Dick Benoit, Ronald Folsom, and Dave Belcher. These pilots do their fly- ing for Joe Seltmann, a former air force pilot, who now owns the largest airline company from Moon to Mars. Two mechanics from Whitman working for Mr. Seltmann are Ells- worth Nickerson and Walter Jackson. Ready to look after your every need and comfort are two pretty airline ho stesses, Jacqueline Paiva and Nancy Cotten. Bruce Smith is editor of the nationally known newspaper The lnquiring Bystander. He has gained fame for his articles about ser- vicemen. At the moment he is rushing to press an article telling of the heroic efforts of Les- ter Waterman, Robert' DeLong, and Frank Flavell, who distinguished themselves in Korea. Gwen Tingley and Claudia Daniels, two noted journalists, are also working on this newspaper. Gwen is editor of the Womens' Page and Claudia is editor of the Garden Page. At a race track owned by Larry Mc Carthy, we find Marion Harris training hor- ses. Marion's prize horse, Julius, recently hurt its leg as it stumbled after clearing a hurdle. The local veterinarian, Donald Nut- ter, was immediately called. Doctor Fred Fergusonhasjust treated Al Bunar, who broke his leg when he and his pal, Ed Clark, were engineering for a big construction company owned by Clarke Cas- well. This company is competing withRichard Ferguson's crew for the building of a large school. Mr. Ferguson has just hired Robert Fullerton and Tom Whalen to work for him. Turning to the fashion world, we see Marilyn Weimert designing clothes for such top models as Nancy Goodwin, Nancy Gau- dette, and Norma Hedin. They are employed' by Betty McCarthy in her fashion salon. Also working in the salon are Arlene White, a nationally known hair stylist, and Lorraine Bachand, a famous cosmetologist. This firm also develops its own make -up. Their latest line of make -up Mud and Marvels was devel- oped by the chemists Priscilla Harriman, 'Frannie Mc Laughlin and Ralph Gronlund. Ah! Now we see that tne circus is in town, and we notice that several Whitmanites are traveling with it. Diane Derosier is in charge of the advertising. She and her assis- tant, Evelyn Chapman, are famous for their colorful circus advertisements. The notec' lifter, Eddie Smith. is also traveling with the circus this year. Allan Leonard, the cowboy singing sensation, has become famous over- night along with the cowboy boogie guitarist, Marshall Hatch. Mary Johnson now owns the Johnson School lor Typing Know-How.

To the FreshmanClass we leave three years which we hope will be as happy and successful as ours. and Pat Smith. James Perron, afamous sur- geon, along with Eleanor Boudreau and Nancy Damon, two noted medic al technologists,have found an amazing cure for cancer. The switch-board operator Elaine Nelson, has just put through a call to the desk clerk, Marilyn Barry, that an ambulance driven by Walter Foster will be there in five minutes. The patient is James McKenna, well-known Shakespearean actor, who portrayed Hamlet recently. His press agent, Dave Vallancourt, is veryupset over this because he has to can- cel his trip to Europe to appear at the Pala- dium. McKenna took an overdose of Sleepy- Time tablets, manufactured by the pharma- cetical house of Hurley and Flanagan. It took Mary and Alice four-,years to perfect these. Even though many of our predictions may not come true, we leave with the wish that all your hopes and dreams may be ful- filled.

Marilyn Barry 'Q ' Doris Dufresne MARION HARRIS 2 J JHNICE NICOLL I entered Whitman High againg and as Iwalked by familiar classrooms filled with students, thoughts of the class of '53's school days came rushing back to me. I gazed upon the main bulletin board and remembered how we as freshmen had to find our homeroom on it while the upper class- men knew theirs and went swiftly to them. I laughed as lthought ofhow we craned our necks to see the room numbers. Carol Woods will never forget how she got into the wrong class and, after realizing it, had to walk out, puzzling both the teacher and the other students. Poor Norma Hedin. She walked into her class, rushed to a vacant seat, sat down--only to find herself on the floor. There was no chair at the desk. Our first football rally was a new adventure for us. Nancy Goodwin and Nancy Gaudette had been chosen as the freshrnan cheerleaders. We were introduced to Mr. Dow's magic tricks and Mr. Lane's and Coach Malinowski's jokes. We will never forget that a little bull goes a long way. The freshman cheer! It sounded like a whisper next to that of the other classes. Coach boomed, Where is Room5 sitting? Meekly we raised our hands, and he added, Wel1, yell! The second try was hardly better than the first. How proud we were to be students of Whitman High, especially when we nipped un- defeated Rockland, l3 to 12, and won the Thanksgiving game with Abington, 7 to 6. Then our basketball team won the South Shore Class A Championship. We trudged through our freshman year bearing the load of being the lowest class. W.1en June came we welcomed the summer vacation, and yet we looked forward to com- ing back in September as Sophomores. At the start of our sophomore year we were sufficiently organized to elect class officers, who were Bob Butler, presidentg Carol Scagliarini, vice-president, Shirley Prario. secretary, andEddie Donahue, treas- urer. Mr. Nery was with us long enoughto be one of our class advisors. Miss Taylor was the other, They very ably helped us to 4 A.--. if f 'Z 'Se GQ 'i 5ia1fQQZQMQJZQJZa bring forth our first masterpiece, Cinder- ella's Ball. Jim Perron and Eddie Clark were the two sophomore he-men on the football team. I especially remember the baseball season that year--only one defeat! There were several new additions in our sophomore year, more pupils were able to acquire that precious license, for a Driv- ers' Training Course was organized, The Spectator, the major, and only, periodical at W.1-l.S. was rolled off the presses for the first time, and last, but not least, Joyce Emmons rejoined the class. Idoubt very much if RichardFerguson will ever forget the rather difficult time he had playing the role of Silas Marner in Miss Gilbert's English class. I well remember how smug we felt when our sophomore year was over. We were thoroughly seasoned and ready to become upper classmen. By the time our junior year arrived, we were really rolling along smoothly. This time our class officers were the same except that Donald Nutter replaced Eddie Donahue as treasurer. Mr. Andrew and Mrs. Lapworth had a busy-year as class advisors, for there were class rings to get and two dances to pro- duce-- The Harvest Hop, and the social event of the year, The Junior Prom. When the Student Council took the music poll for Bob Clayton's Boston Ball- room, we juniors were well represented by Pat Butler and Frances McLaughlin. There was some excellent junior tal- lent in the Dramatic Club production, The Curious Savage. Also, of course, Mr. Fox took the Dramatic Club on its annual outing to which more juniors went because many of the seniors were much too busy. At the Spellman Essay Contest, Gwen Tingley made us all proud when she came up with second prize! That year our membership increased by two when Pat Bezanson and Tom Horan joined our class. The Junior class produced six athletes for the football team: Eddie Clark, Jim Per- ron, Al Bunar, Donald Nutter, Richard Fer- guson, and Russell Meiggs. It was a banner year for the girls' bas- ketball team, the first team was undefeated and the second team lost only two games. The faculty rewarded them with a testimonial din- ner and with the presentation of charms and letters. The dinner was such a success it was decided to make it an annual affair. I'm sure Barbara and Anne will never forget the job they had after the Junior Prom. Barbara should especially remember the day when Mr. I..ane's history class proved to be too much for her. Also that year the typing class made use of a certain stamp! It seems that the junior classes at W. H. S. make it a habit to roll out the car- pet, so to speak, for the seniors at graduation time. We were no exception. I'll never for- get how feverishly we prepared for the Class Day Banquet and decorated the Town Hall for graduation exercises, The junior girls and boys were also ushers at Class Day and graduation. This ended our junior year duties. Oh, how I remember September 3, l952! It was the first day of school and our first day as seniors. We felt so proud and could now understand the attitude of the sen- iors before us. The senior girls really caused an up- roar when they came to school wearing their fathers' shirts, red ties, and no make-up. At the football rally we were the class that gave the loudest cheer. We also carried red and black shakers which helped to get us into the football spirit. Our class officers for this year were John Burbine, president, Carol Scagliarini, vice-president, Shirley Prario, secretaryg and Don Nutter, treasurer. Amidst the fun of the first months there was a serious note, for in October our class, and the school, suffered a great loss in the death of Bob Crooker. At the Thanksgiving football rally, it was the members of our class who made the speeches. Of course, as I remember, they weren't nervous at all. The Tuesday night before the Thanks- giving Day game, Nancy Goodwin gave a par- ty for the class at her house. Everyone had an enjoyable evening, and Norma Hedin will never forget her episode with the chocolate cake. Our football season ended with a happy note with the winning of the game with Abing- ton by a score of 13 to 6. On October 23, we presented the first dance of the year which was entitled Opening QKQ'f EZ2H- '51 'if'5I'f'5f:,6'f'5'rQ Q2l?2! Night. Walter Milne's Orchestra provided graduation. Jimmy perl-on was elected to the music. On December 5, the senior class pre- sented Little Women. We hardly recog- nized our classmates in their Civil War per- iod costumes. The cast gave an outstanding performance with Diane Derosier doing a fine job in the role of Jo. A Christmas pageant was presented by members of the school with Jack Burbine narrating and music provided by the Senior Girls' Ensemble. Mr. Howland resigned as guidance director to take a position at Dean Academy. I can recall how shocked we were when Mr. Bayley resigned as principal after thirty-one years to occupy the guidance director's post. The senior football banquet was held on January 21. It was the last school affair at which Mr. Bayley presided as principal. After the sweater awards were made, Mr. West showed colored pictures taken at some of the football games. It seems that Mr. Mal- inowski was embarrassed by one. Dancing was enjoyed afterwards. On ,March 23, Mr. Johnson, our new principal, arrived. I seem to remember a steady stream of girls traveling to the princi- pal's office from then on. In March the yearbook staff was cho- sen and this brought us one step closer to represent Whitman High at Student Govern- ment Day at the State House. He worlzed on the establishment of a comic book commis- sion, and he voted in favor of it. Marilyn Weimert made us proud by winning the state D. A. R. sewing contest. The honor parts were soon assigned, and we came closer still to graduation. I remember that everyone was in a daze, but we came out of it long enough to be measured for our caps and gowns and to hold a class meeting at whichwe changed the sen- ior reception date to before graduation and decided to have a receiving line at the recep- tion. In the midst of all our voting, giving our class pictures, and the numerous other dutieswe performed, we foundtime to present our last dance, Our Final Fling, on April 17. Nobel Lapworth's orchestra provided the music. Rehearsals for class day began. It had a circus theme and was presented June 6. The big night finally arrived, and we graduated on Friday, June 12. I had no more time for reverie, my business had been completed, but before I drove away, I turned and took another look at our old alma mater. Yes, we had to work hard, but we also had many laughs, and we still retain fond memories ofour school days Class Preference Poll Boy's College Girl's College Movie Actor Movie Actress Winter Sport Summer Sport Movie-of-the-Year Food Gum Orchestra Record Television Program Female Vocalist Male Vocalist Radio Program Comedian Automobile Professional Athlete Whitman game-of-the-Year News-of-the-Year lLocalj News-of-the-Year QNationa1l Rend szvous Notre Dame Smith John Wayne Marilyn Monroe Ice-skating Swimming Ivanhoe Pizza Spearmint Guy Lombardo Why Don't You Believe Me?

At this meeting the following students were elected officers: President, RobertCrooker, Vice-President, Mary Bayleyg Secretary, Joyce Emmons, Treasurer, John Burbine, and Auditor, Lorraine Richard. It was decided to hold regu- lar meetings on the first and third Wednesday of each month at 2:30 in Room 10. Upon the unfortunate death of our President, Robert Crooker, a resolution was drawn up and presented to his parents, expressing our appre- ciation for his service to the school. James Perron was later elected as the new President. Under his supervision the Council members selected delegates to represent Whitman High at the fall convention at Somerset. joined the National Association of Student Councils, and ordered Student Council pins. After conducting a very successful Red Cross drive, it was decided to set aside a Cour- tesy Week. Plans were made to have posters placed around the school, and Student Council members were assigned classrooms in which to place appropriate drawings. Again this year the Junior members of the Council directed the Talent Show. Many fine acts were presented with a member of the student body as Master of Ceremonies. This was one of the best talent shows ever presented at Whitman High and con' g.-1.-mented a very successful Student Council year. 30 fa 14 4 14 A ia SENIOR CLASS PLAY QLeft to Rightj First Row: E.

One day, while they are together, Aunt March QMary Johnsonl, the girls' crotchety old rela- tive, appears, startling both of them. Brooke leaves the room but happens to hear Meg de fending him to Aunt March, who objects to him because he is poor, After Aunt Mai-Ch has left in a huff, Brooke returns, and Meg now happily agrees to marry him soon. The epilogue takes place several ,fears later. Amy and Laurie have just re- turned from Europe where they were married, and 'luring a family reunion, Professor Bhaer Names McKennaJ, an old friend of Jo's comes to visit her. When Jo learns that he will be in the West for a long time, she con- fesses that she loves him, much to his joy. The play closes with two happy marriages and the promise of a third one. The play was made more interesting and enjoyable by the authentic costumes and furniture of the period. Carol Scagliarini, costume manager, and Anne Buckley, prop- erty manager, deserve credit for wt rking so hard to get these articles. lrilliam Burns, stage manager, and John Harmon, light dir- ector, also helped greatly. Frances Mc- Laughlin as prompter did an excellent job in an important role. And to Miss Gilbert, who coached us so well, we Wish to express our gratitude for making our play sucha success.

After a poor season last year, the coach and the team were all set to buckle down and work hard for a pros- perous season. With its opening game less than a week away, Whitman High was drilled hard under Coaches Malinowski and Yetten. Many prob- lems were ironed out in scrimmages against West Bridgewater, North Easton, and Han- over. The first game of the year, the top attraction in district schoolboy circles, was the annual clash between Stoughton High and Whitman High, slated for the Whitman Mem- orial Field in Whitman. The Stoughton team had won the last two meetings, but a well- spirited Whitman was all out to start the sea- son with a win. ln a hard-fought game, a scrappy Stoughton team defeated Whitman High, 10-O. Clark and Pina were best on the offenserfor Whitman, with Perron, Ferguson, and Bunar playing good defensive ball. Whitman High was after its first vic- tory the following Saturday afternoon when they met their rivals in Randolph at Randolph High field. Paced by a group of fast, hard- running backs led by Eddie Clark, the Red and Black gridsters of Whitman High rolled over Randolph, 26 to O, for its first win of the season. Al Bunar realized the dream of all linemen by scoring a touchdown after in- tercepting a pass. Jimmy Perron and R-uss Meiggs were outstanding in the Whitman line. Two of the district's oldest football rivalries clashed once again at Whitman with the Red and Black playing host to the Blue and White of Plymouth. A fumble on their four- yard line early in the fourth period was costly for Whitman as they lost, Z0 to 13. Eddie Clark was outstanding on offense, while Benoit, Gronlund, and Seltmann were stand- outs on defense. What should have been one of the dis- trict's top schoolboy football games of the 1952 season took place at Memorial Stadium in Rockland with undefeated Rockland playing host to Whitman. Two touchdowns and an all- important conversion gave Rockland High a 13 to 12 victory over its traditional rival, Whitman, before an excited following in a game that was always in doubt until the final gun sounded. The entire team, led by Chard Ferguson and Al Bunar, played well. On the last road trip for the '52 seascn, Whitman went to Hingham. In a hard-fought game Whitman was defeated, 19 to 7, with Eddie Clark scoring Whitman's only tally. Whitman then entertained Middleboro in the game before the annual Thanksgiving Day game with Abington. Whitman scored two touchdowns in the first half and held off a Middleboro attack in the second half as they defeated Middleboro, 14 to 7. The Whitman line, composed of Perron, Meiggs, Seltmann, Gronlund, Bunar, Ferguson, and Benoit, played superbly as they stopped Middleboro on their own three-yard line with inches to go for a first down in the last minute of the game. The Green and White of Abington clashedwith the Red and Black -of Whitman in the 'traditional Thanksgiving morning gridiron classic at Whitman MemorialField. A bang- up game was expected between the bitter, old- time rivals, one of the oldest of the schoolboy rivalries in the district. The Whitman hosts had the edge by comparative scores' among common opponents, but comparative scores mean little in this annual battle. In a rugged fight, Whitman came from behind in the sec- ond half to defeat Abington High, 25 to 13. The strong Whitman line made many goal line stands throughout the game. Eddie Clark scored three touchdowns and passed to Dick Benoit for the fourth. The entire Whitman team played well. This win was looked upon as the most important game and brought to a close a successful season for the team of 1952. The seniors of the WhitmanHigh foot- ball team were awarded sweaters at the annual senior class football banquet in the school cafeteria. Seniors receiving sweaters were Edwin Clark, Ja.n'1esPerron, RichardFergu- son, Alex Bunar, Richard Benoit, Ralph Gron- lund, Russell Meiggs, Josef Seltmann, Wil- liam Burns, Thomas Whalen, and Ernest Mor- gan. Awards of gold football pendents were given 'by the Whitman council, Knights of Columbus, to the senior players and tothe senior cheerleaders, Nancy Gaudette and Nancy Goodwin. BASKETBALL Although the team finished in sixth place in the Old Colony League competition, it furnished its followers with plenty of ex- citing and heart-breaking basketball. The team started out like a house on fire, win- ning its first four out of five games, even though the finishwas not quite so spectacular. Its victories included wins-over Ran- dolph, Rockland, Abington, Plymouth, and Miramar. The team was led by Whitey Fullerton, an aggressive center. He was supported by: Seniors, Jack Redgate, John Kelly, and Dick Braleyg Junior, Bill Burnett, Sophomores, George Harrington, Bill Powers, and Bob Wheeler, and Freshmen, Jim Shay and Ted Liapis. Coach Ray Yetten deserves credit for the fine showing of sportsmanship displayed by the team.

In the first game, Whitman was beat- en, 5 to 0, by a strong North Quincy team, the defending champions of the South Shore League. The Whitman team, paced by a group of well-spirited players, turned the tide by whipping Milton, 4 to 2, in the sec- ond game of the season for their first win of the '53 season. I.n the next game Whitman was ready to settle for a victory against Hingham, but Hingham scored two goals in the last minute of play to call it a tie, 5 to 5. The next day a tired Whitman team was beaten by Hingham, 5 to 0. In this game Whitman tried hard, but they just cou.ldn't score. ln the next game Milton came back to beat Whitman, 5 to 3. This was aclose game all the way. Although seater. by the score of 2 to O, the Whitmanboyswon a moral victory over North Quincy. This was an exciting game from the time it started until the final whist- le blew. After the game the boys from the city of NorthQuincyhad a little more respect for the boys of Whitman High. Determined to win another game, the Whitman High team defeated their rivals, Brockton High, by the score of 3 to O. The Whitman High pucksters completely outplayed Brockton. This victory, the most cherished, broughtthe '53 season to a close. This year's team had the best record of any Whitman High hockey team. It is hard to single out any one player who starred. Every player on the club played hard and deserves mention. The players include: Seniors: Eddie Clark. Alex Bunar, Chard Ferguson, Larry McCarthy, Flip Staples, Ray Pina, Russ Meiggs, and Joe Bonjokiang Underclassmen: Erv Fratus, John Cantara, Jim Hogg, and Charlie Turner. BASEBALL After two weeks of working-out in the gym, the baseball team is working outside now and is looking forward to a successful season. Under the capable direction of Coach Malinowski they will be out to win the Old C010r1y League title. Several veterans are coming back, andthe club looms as a potential threat to the others in the league. The opening game is scheduled for April 16. Several teams will compete as Braintree defends the title against Middleboro, Hingham, Rockland, Plymouth, Abington, and Whitman. ln the South Shore Conference two rounds of games will be played. The clubwith the best record at the end of the first round will qualify for the Conference play-offs. Each team will have 12 league games.

Al- though they did not have an undefeated season as their predecessor of the year before, their record is one to be proud of. The first team won six and lost four, and the second tealin won eight and lost only two. This record could not have been pos- sible if it were not forthe expert coaching of Miss Maida Pratt. The forwards and guards did their usual fine job in good sportsmanship as well as in playing basketball. Louise Woodill, Sheila Adams, and Anne Buckley led the red and black first-team forwards, and Anita Dias, June Onulak, and Pat Bezanson did an equally outstanding job on the defensive side. Louise Woodill scored the most points with 124. Several juniors deserve alot of credit this year: Margie Jones, Judy Hinkley, Kay Litchfield, and Louise McCarthy. With these prospects for next year the team shouldhave an excellent season. The class of 1953 wishes them good luck.

In our Sophomore year .ve held our first dance, The Magic Mirror, which was very successful financially and socially. This year, however, has certainly been our busiest and happiest. In November was our second dance Saludos Amigos. It was also our turn to hold the Junior Prom. Early in March plans had been made and coni- mittees chosen with the capable assistance of Miss Taylor and Mr. O'Neill. Several hard- working ,girls ca.:r.- back to school oz . tiny afternoons wil .li'i more than their share in proiiioting the success ot this dance. After everything was prepared the gym looked mar- 'l'i- easurerg Robert Rumrill, President. The gowns that the girls wore were beautiful and the boys looked very neat, especiallythe Junior boys becausathey were all dressed alike. It was an expensive night but we all agreed it was worth it! In our diary also stands out the pur- chase of our class rings. In order to organ- ize the task of selecting different rings from various concerns for our approval, a ring committee was formed, They met on several occasions and finally presented four select - ions to the class. We voted and a ring with a black onyx stone, on which was a gold plate with the initials W.H.S. , Won by a majority vote. We've heard, though, that the best year ofhigh school is yetto come. It will then ia 4 1 ' X Y - V 'his' Z ? XBHCAQFSV be our honorto take your place, Seniors, and ,suespfga-f 7DfE'7T0Qve hope we shall do a good job of it.

Secretaryg Robert Emery, Treasurerg Geo Although we are but Sophomores, we have contributed much to the various sch-201 activities in our two years here. This year we joinedthe Freshmen to have our own Glee Club and Dramatic Club. We also had another first this year--our first dance, Moonlight Sleighride, which was botha social and fin - ancial success. Many were also onthe Spec- ,f , A A rge Johnson, President tator staff and on the Student Council. Many of our boys starred in the line- uur of the various sport activities. We are proud to say that we have some of the best athletes in the school. VHESHMEN Although we were not able to elect class officers this year, we did elect home- room officers and monitors, so that we were able to feel that we were helping to run the school. is for extra-curricular activities, there were many we could take part in. As usual, the boys could join the Boys' Glee Club, and for the first time the girls had a Freshman-Sophomore Glee Club. The Fresh- man-Sophomore Dramatic Club was also or- ganized this year, and some of our members took part in the Christmas pageant. Some found places on the staff of the Spectator, And in sports, a few of us proved that we could hold our own with the upperclassmen. Being freshmen isn't too bad, we foundg we hope that the freshmen next year think so, too. BY THEIR WURUS YE SHALL KNOW THEM H: .-...- l 1. M...-. H.. 1. v 1 .- Li..
