In this day and age it seems that consideration for others is one of the forgotten virtues. Such graces as simple polite- ness and regard for the amenities of gracious living are con- sidered outmoded. Young men especially seem to think that these are Hsissy.H Sadly enough they are encouraged in this belief by the other sex who glorify the Nhe-man.H This seems a retrogression towards the cave man days. Many of you will learn the hard way that you are not sufficient to yourselves alone, but are dependent unon the opinion of others. Freedom of self expression is a desirable goal, but when such freedom becomes license to the extent of encroachment upon the rights of others the true value of consideration becomes evident After a long life given to dealing with matters involving people, young and old, I am convinced that the Golden Rule is still the best guide to successful living. Stephen G. Bean 915mm To the members of the Class of 1950: You have come finally to the end of your Wilmington school days. My sincere congratulations go to each of you for having arrived successfully at this important turning point in your life, As each of you go forward on your journey through life We want you to know that every member of the faculty will watch your progress with special interest. We will be saddened by your sorrows and mistakes and overjoyed with your happinesses and successes. We wish you God-speed. George C.

All Wilmington is in an expectant mood over the class reunion that is to take place at the new high school dur- ing this weekend. The reunion committee is headed by Mr. Peter LePore and Mr. John Chinn as co-chairmen and includes such dig- nitaries as Mr. Charles Crotty, Miss Teresa Draper, Miss Doris Laskey, and Mr. Michael Elia, who is now owner of a large chain of stores and employs Shirley Nelson as one of his secretaries. Before I have a chance to realize it members of the mid-century class are being seen all over town. While standing in Wilmington Center a large, black Cadillac comes to a halt and out steps Mr. Malcolm MacKenzie, the accom- plished actor, along with Mr. Frank Bonarrigo, who is now our famous actor's publicity director, while at the wheel sits Mr. Guy Clinch all dressed up in his black chauffeur's uniform. As I glance around town I can hard- ly help but notice the marked improve- ments made by the new town manager, Mr. James Fleming along with Mr. Robert Goss and Mr. Lester Smith, his right hand men. Florence Spear and Joanne Murray are also on hand along with Agnes Letel- lier, their private secretary, and Marion Sharp, one of their models, after leaving their dress designing shop in Boston to join the weekend festivities. Glancing along Main Street I not- ice two scndwich-board advertisements, then look up to see who is carrying them. It's none other than Dick Bennett and Art Brewster. The signs say, HEat at LaRivee's,Wilmington's Largest Restaurant, entertainment furnished by Doris Fay and Marcia Wiseman.n My next stop takes me to Ames' News Store to buy the local paper in order to see what it has to say about the class reunion. As I enter I not- ice Paul Gearty standing behind the cash register and Clifford Smith fig- uring out his profits with his books. As I pick up the paper I look in amazement at the heading, because it says Mr. Richard Swain, Editor. Leaving the news store, I hop into a cab and much to my surprise there is Robert McHugh sitting in the driver's seat asking, nwhere to buddy?n I reply, Hwilmington Air- port, pal,N Just as the cab pulls into the parking lot a huge transport plane makes a landing and taxis to a stop. As the door of the plane swings open out step two young men dressed in military uniform. They are none other than John Carter and John Ingalls. Before the plane is unloaded two more members of the Class of '50 step off. They are Claire Hillson and Perry Humphrey of the H G H Art Galleries. Glancing at my watch I find my- self startled to see that it is now 7:50 so I jump back into the cab and rush school. On my way I pass a bank where Walker Spring is president, and a large, brick factory with a sign attached to it that reads, Hwoods, Mackey and Pilcher, Incorporated, Manufacturers of Sporting Goods.' toward the new ultramodern high Upon arriving at the new school I meet June Bell and Dona LaDow, who are still Chumming around together, and hold good positions, making their way into the reunion dance. Turning toward one corner of the dance floor, I catch a glimpse of four former co-eds of Wilmington High School, who are now married. The four are none other than Barbara Curtis, Audrey Irwin, Barbara Manuel, and Barbara Hendricks, who are uchew- ing the fatn about the antics of their children. Janet Colucci and Mary Cosman are now among the teachers on the staff along with Marie Chisholm, who is now girls' gym instructor and coach. As I glance across the floor there are two familiar looking young ladies dancing together. Why of course, it is Betty Galka and Marie Haley talking over old times as they dances During intermission we are enter- tained by Miss June Provost at the piano and Mr. William McGondel, the dancer, both of whom put on an ex- cellent show. A few members of the class are missing this evening but all are expected in time for Saturday night's banquet at which JUdg6 Roger Kambour and his clerk, David Landers, along with Doctor Frank Carta will join the rest of the dignitaries of our class. SU gs Our caterer for the banquet is none other than John LaCreta, who now employs Marjorie White, Lois Reed, and Hazel O'Brien as waitresses. While at the banquet I found that Ovide Bourgois and Dick Faulkner own their own farms and that Tootsie Garland is now a private secretary for a large Boston firm, while Charlie White and Warren Butler are opening their own businesses and are soon expected to be top successes along with the rest of the class. Nancy Marshall and Gloria Haney are now working as nurses at Massachu- setts General Hospital and Beatrice Swenson is also employed in the same hospital as a receptionist. Ihe one thing that stands out during the whole reunion is that the Class of '50 is one of the most suc- cessful and amazing classes that ever has graduated from Wilmington High School.

The Red Cross and Magazine Drives met with satisfactory response from the students of W. H. S. But the students were not so enthusiastic about the soap wrapper drive. Contributions were poor. They also were responsible for the Auto-Driving Course and the publishing of the Oracle. Four members of the Council were chosen as delegates to be sent to the Student Council Convention in Melrose. They were: Helen Calnan, James Fleming, Mary Letellier, and Patricia Pil- cher.

During the first few meetings the novice members learned how to take good pictures. Several picture-taking excursions were held. In the succeeding meetings the members learned to print and develop pictures. The much anticipated annual Winter Carnival was held the third and fourth of February. The basketball game between the boys and the girls, held in the gm, was one of the features of' the weekend. Although the girls played a hard gm they lost to a superior boys team. That evening the main event of the Carnival, a semi-formal dance, was held at the Grange Hall. The highlight of the evening was the coronation of the king and queen, Robert Goss and Florence Spear. They were crowned by last year's royalty, Robert Pipes and Eileen Nelson. Members of the court attending their royal majesties were: Seniors, Doris Laskey and Frank Bonarrigog Juniors, Barbara Eaulkner and Lloyd Belbing Sophomores, Mary Ann Curtin and James Tigheg Freshmen, Frances Delaney and Gene Bovey. Jesters to the court were Mike Elia and Peter LePore. LIBRARIANS First Row: Beatrice Swenson, Jeanette Colucci, Flo- rence Spear, Nancy Marshall Second Row: Gloria Haney, Shirley Nelson, Barbara Curtis The library was efficiently managed under the supervision of Miss Marland. Students looking for reading material found it available on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons in Room 201. Although there is a limited number of books, there were a great many taken out each week, and the librarians were kept busy filing cards, repairing books, and aiding students in finding the type of' literature that suit their individual needs. In addition to their other duties, the librarians sold candy each noon to finance the purchase of' new books. E e, . y I ,M . 'f 1, wa .V , 8 gi M ., fn e .f , 02 1?

With high hopes of a victory, the game was played with great teamwork and spirit. Although it was the first defeat of the season, the team was not to be discouraged and looked forward to future victories. The second game was again with Tewksbury. This match proved to be fast and exciting, but marked a second defeat for the team. Wilmington then travelled to Johnson High in North Andover, and provided a thrilling sight for the spectators. Johnson held the team to a close score. Next the team played Howe High in Billerica. The game was a hard fought battle with Howe as the victors. In the following game, Howe's strength proved too much for the locals. The first victory of the season was a defeat over Wakefield. The last game was played at Johnson, who again defeated the team. s. xx X, X X X agp? xx? X, 4 X 'pf' f h.

After a few weeks the squad was in good shape and ready for action. The season opened on September 29, l949 with a game played with the Alumni. The fans watched a scrappy high school team hold their heavier and experienced opponents for three periods. The Alumni finally stopped the high school in time to squeeze out an 18-12 victory. The second game was played against Burlington, with Wilmington coming out on top of a 12-O score. Then came our first defeat in two yearsg a tough team from Weston defeated us 19-O. After its first defeat of the year, Wilmington travelled to Dracut. During the first half both teams scored but Dracut successfully kicked the extra point while Wilmington failed to rush over for the tying point In the second period a last minute attempt by Wilmington to score fell short and the game ended with Dracut on top 7-6. The team jumped back into the win column by defeating Johnson 7-O but failed to remain there when Chelmsford defeated them by the score of 18-7. The team finally hit a winning streak when they romped over Millie and defeated Hanover in a tough battle by the score of 22-15. With a record of four wins and three defeats, Wilmington travelled to Tewksbury to play their traditional rivals. Our team was favored to take this one but were surprised by a scrappy Tewksbury team. Wil- mington failed to score in the first half while Tewksbury scored 14 points. It seemed as though Wilmington was going to be shut out but Bob Surrette took a kick off and ran through the whole Tewksbury team missing the end zone by only two yards. On the next play, Surrette charged over for our only touchdown of the day with Gerry O'Rei1ly kicking the extra point. The final score: Terwksbury 14, Wilmington 7. This completed the 1949-1950 football season with Wilmington playing eight games, winning four and losing four. , 3' : ,. o fzl,-SQ Q .' g fpfffuf '. nc, ., .

Each dance had a distinctive theme and suitable entertainment. Re- freshments were also varied to suit the occasion. The profits were used to promote a Bonus Dance, The Snow Ball, which was held at the newly come pleted Villanova Hall. Attendance was gratis and by written invitation only. A five-piece orchestra led by Rudy Gentile, furnished music for dancing. The Cheerleaders, resplendent in party finery, and complete with attentive swains, donned tiny plastic aprons keyed to the color of their dresses--and assu ed the duties of waitresses. Some even doffed their shoes and gaily served cupcakes, ice cream, and punch in their stocking feet.

The team, which was coached by Mr. Ambrose, was un- defeated in high school competition. Richard Pilcher and Robert Goss were elected by the players as co-captains. Some of the key players were Carl Backman, Leo Woods, Rob- bert Goss, Donald O'Connell, Gerald O'Reilly, Richard Pilcher, Gene Hovey, and Harold Clements. The boys defeated Winchester twice by the scores of 9 to 2 and 5 to 5 and they also defeated Andover by the score of 5 to 2. The season's hockey record was three wins without any defeats BOYS' BASKETBALL First Row: Frank Bonarrigo, Malcolm MacKenzie, Arthur Brewster, Capt. James Fleming, Leo Woods, Edward Kambour, Al- bert Ethier Second Row: Coach Edward Palmieri, Ralph Lepore, Lloyd Belbin, Phillip Fisher, John Chinn, Richard Rothwell, Robert Belbin, Willis Whalen Wilmington High School brought another basketball season to an end without much success. Although the team's record was not outstanding, the fans showed much enthusiasm at the games. The Varsity Five consisted for the most part of seniors, with the exception of one freshman. The outstanding senior and high scorer was Arthur Brewster, who racked up one hundred and twenty- four pointso The outstanding freshman on the team, Ted Kambour, looks like a future star. 3 Q XNAQN ,V sf , Q , 5 E we , , ..

The advent of atomic energy has speeded the arrival of this coming dilemma which began to approach with the coming of man. It all started when Og, the first cave- man fought with Zog, the second cave- man, over who was going to have for a wife the squat, hairy female hov- ering in the cave watching the tem- pest with avid interest. As civil- ization grew upward and outward naturally the causes of friction changed and grew more complicated until we have today's gigantic wars and today's many and complex, ever- changing causes. A basic change in theory as to the causes of war by our leaders has come about in recent years, which may help considerably. Previously it was thought that some races were inher- ently warlike. They were resigned to the fact that Germany, for instance, would keep on creating trouble, as long as she existed. That is wrong. Now they are coming to realize that people are warlike when their social and economic relationships are upsetg when they feel bewildered and insecure One other important cause lurks in the recesses of the mind of a war-mongerer frustration, Frustration, which ruins many a man mentally can also bring the downfall of a nation. Frustration increases the group of habitual mili- tarists every nation has until a Ger- many or a Bolivia is the result. With these new ideas we should be able to understand any foreign people and construct a working peace. However, at present, the United States as a nation is unprepared to cooperate constructively for peace or to assume 9 its natural leadership of world affairs. Our people can sense the n dreadful peril of atomic weapons. That is easy. It is something tangible, a single item which can be visualized and talked about easily. But many cannot understand the wider, more basic need for some kind of a better managed world in general. Between the Revolution and the War Between the States, almost a hundred years, Americans held great interest in political affairs, both in our internal and our foreign pol- icies. With the coming of the indus- trial boom after l86O much of this began slipping away until today's situation is disgusting. The Office of Public Opinion Research at Prin- ceton University uncovered the fol- lowing facts in this great nation of ours, supposedly one of the most edu- cated in the world. Approximately 27 million of the 90 million adults in the United States didn't know that the Japanese had occupied the Philippines during World War II. Thirty per cent thought the U. S. had belonged to the League of Nations and 26 per cent didn't know. Only one out of every three knows how a treaty is ratified in this country. How can a people who have such a knowledge of history and current events be expected to run intelligently our government? One of the main reasons for thisf ignorance has developed since the Q Machine Age has allowed more leisure f time and more money for everyone. Beg fore this, people had few outside inn terests. There was church and there' was government. In those days pol- itics was of real importance and in- terest to Americans. Think of the myriad diversions we have in these days. First came the novels, then theaters, then spectator sports, then movies and radio, and finally television. The reason they are so popular is that we don't have to think to enjoy themg we just sit back and sink into the lethargy of this world of unreality. This is escape from the more pressing problems of today's complex life. In addition a nationalistic at- titude has been taught in our schools which hinders any world-wkie understanding and cooperation. This teaching must go. Communism predicts an inevitable clash with capitalism caused by the capitalists' inability to avoid severe and ever increasing depressions and their final turning to expansion- istic war to put off collapse. Now our democratic system of free enter- prise is the best argument there is against Communism. Only by pulling through the next fifteen years without a depression or a major war can we convince the Russian people that our way has something good in it after all. In the meantime, we must keep a firm foreign policy toward Russian expansion. We must keep our lead in industry and science also. There is a difference between Russian aggression and that of Hitler or Napoleon. While theirs was pri- marily militaristic, Russia's is pri- marily political, based on a desire for safety by ringing herself with buffer states. When we have won Russia's confidence, this aggression will stop. Only by pursuing peace- ful projects aimed at helping the world as a whole will this confi- dence come. The United States spent lO.7 billion dollars for arma- ments in 1947-48. If you were a Russian would that assure you that we are a peaceful nation? In the last two wars the United States won with force. However, it could force has failed. We other means. In l79O Washington, Jefferson not keep the peace. Apparently must resort to the country of and Hamilton was in reality a group of 15 quarrel- some, suspicous states who had just entered the task of making the new government work. The situation today is similar except that the latter dwarfs the former in every detail. We shall succeed depending on the extent to which people inform themselves and take an active part in our policies. Can we do it? That's the big question mark. We must think and act fast. lime is running out. It's this explosive world which we students are stepping into. There is work for us to do out there. We should look backward with fond mem- cries, but never stop looking for- ward. This is an end in a sense but actually it is a beginning. We have finished our preparation and should be looking forward to the job ahead with confidence in our training and a certain eagerness to get into the thick of this exciting, fast-moving world. This is farewell to school and greetings to the world. Roger Kambour SALUTATORY Members of the School Board, Mr. Bean, Mr. Kambour, Members of the Faculty, Parents of the Grad- uating Class, and Honored Guests, in behalf of the graduating Class of l95O, it is my privilege to wel- come you here this evening. We shall never be able to express fully our gratitude to our parents and teachers, who have so carefully guid- ed us through our most difficult but enjoyable years. We can, however, hope that by being better citizens of tomorrow, we may in some way repay all they have done for us. THE VALUE OF A COM ERCIAL EDUCATION The commercial course may be defined as the course which prepares one to enter the business worldg either to use the skills one has ac- quired, or to go further on to spe- cialize in one particular field. Although concentrating on teaching the student those fundamental skills with which he may decide if that is the field which he wishes to enter, the course also gives a varied back- ground pertaining to business. Economic geography, general sciences, civics, business training and economics all provide the nec- essary knowledge which, if the stu- dent absorbs it, will teach him some- thing of the world in which he lives. The economic world is the world of the business man. Before taking part in this world, we must know why the job we do. All the we are doing subjects offered in the commercial course give something of the back- ground of this economic world. By reading newspapers and mag- azines, by listening to the news, and by studying things that can aid him in the future, a student can learn the need for com ercial workers, the many fields open to these workers and the many advantages and opportunities there are awaiting the man or woman who has a business training. There is not an occupation nor a business that does not need people skilled in this way, whether it be a bookkeeper, secretary, file clerk or a machine operator. Fields too numerous to mention are open to a com ercial student. Besides the legal, medical, transportation, and industrial fields, to name a few already within reach, science is today opening hundreds of new opportunities available to all. Constant discoveries in various fields encourage young peo- ple to take advantage of what is being offered to them. A com ercial education is of sig- nificant value to the young man or woman who is undecided about his or her future. After completion of the course, he is able at least to obtain a position which will pay a sufficient income until a permanent vocation is chosen. To the boy or girl entering high school this course is particularly desirable because when graduation time comes, instead of having to get a position of low caliber, he will have a knowledge of skills that are going to furnish a suitable income. A commercial course for an alert young man is a good insurance of prob- able success. Since men are preferred over women, and make more money, a hard-working employee can soon work himself up to a position of higher degree. Not enough men are interested to take a com ercial course. Too many of them flit through high school unable to get a job when they are through because they have no training that is of any use to them. Com ercial work is especially pleasant for girls because the hours are comfortable and the pay good. The different varieties of work from which to choose make it an interesting job. Although most of the young girls stay in an office just long enough to get married, many others advance to higher positions and assume a great deal of responsibility. A commercial education while teaching the student facts pertaining to the world about which he is pre- paring to enter, trains him in those skills which will be of the most value to him. Further training is always desirous, but not a necessity, a per- son for whom college is a distant hope, will find a com ercial education will be a direct asset to him. Many graduates of business schools find in many instances that, each Sept- ember their school gives a twiQTeek X! brush-up course in shorthand and typing. This is especially advan- tageous to the person who has stopped working, and in later years, through necessity, finds he may use his skills to bring in money, either at home or in the office. Commercial training is the most valuable training persons can have--a training that will be able to assist them all during their lives. In summarizing, I wish to urge more persons to take an active in- terest in commercial work. Besides being an interesting field, the hours are agreeable, the surroundings pleas- ant, and it offers to all the ambition everyone seeks--that of the ability to advance in his own right--a truly American tradition, X Marcia Wiseman EE! u ' , , 50 , if A? mis?

All over America, during this month, graduation exercises have been held, are being held, or will be held. By July, a new generation will have taken its place in the world. Many people may in their minds as to this new addition to They may remark that have a question the outcome of the adult world. jobs, for all these people, are hard to find. It may seem that employment is over- crowding itself. The question which they have is: Hwhat is left for these peogle of a new generation to do?H This question of Nwhat is left to do?H, is not a new one. It was asked over two thousand years ago by a very ambitious young man. It seems that the young man's father was a vic- torious, conquering king and his son wanted to be the same kind of man. Alexander was the young man's name and he was the one who asked, Hwhat is left to do?H Of course, it is known that Alexander the Great found a great deal to do, for he went on to con- quer all of the Known world of his time. True enough, none of us would be able to conquer the whole world, but es there was in Alexanderis time there is still, today, plenty to be done. With hardly any trouble, the new occupations created by atomic develop- ments can be seen. New developments in cancer research and cure, use of radio-active substances in medicine and to track diseases. There are also many openings for young people who wish to search for the basis of atomic science, uranium. Yet this does not mean that the new generation has to be one of scientific geniuses, nor does it mean that nuclear physics is the only new field. Developments in radio and elec- tronics have also opened up new gate- ways to sucess. A recent develop- ment is television, creating jobs such as cameramen, sound and electri- cal engineers, television installing experts and repairmen. A Besides the new fields, however, there still remain the old ones. By this is meant vocations which follow: music, painting, designing, archi- teoture, and agriculture. A country's culture constantly changes, and with it changes these occupations. New ideas are constantly needed. In other fields of endeavor such as accounting, clerking, salesmanship, and business management and ownership which are all included in the world of business. There will always be room for improvements. Also, room will be made for the ones who make those improvements. In view of these things I be- lieve that the new generation is ca- pable of bearing its own weight. I also believe that this will be a job well done. John Chinn HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF 1950 The doors of Wilmington High School opened to admit our Fresh- man Class in September.l946. As we look back on that day we recall that our feelings were a mixture of apprehension, bewilderment and hope. Once routine was established, how simple our problems became. This fact only proves that which has often been pointed out to me, nonly the unknown holds fear.n In our Freshman year we were not permitted to elect class officers, but our capable Student Council rep- resentatives were Roger Kambour, Henry Mann and Richard Pilcher. That year we participated in the Curtis Magazine Drive and for the first time felt that we really nbelongedn to the school. Having become accustomed to the rules and regulations of the school we then embarked upon our second, more e- ventful year with enthusiasm. It was at this time that we held our first class meeting. Our advisor was Mr. Don ovan, and under his guidance we elected our first class officers, which were as follows: President - Walker Spring, Vice-President - Richard Pilcher, Sec- retary - Florence Spear, and Treasurer James Landers. The year 1947-48 saw many changes in our faculty. As Sophomores we wel- comed Messrs. DeTeso, Rogers, Ambrose, and Donovan. Newcomers to our student body in- cluded Barbara Hendricks, Beatrice Swenson and Gloria Haney. With much pomp and circumstance the Camera Club initiated a Winter Car- nival in our Sophomore year and with such outstanding success that a pre- cedent was established which has been repeated each year since that time. The event started with a semi-formal ball at which a king and queen were chosen and crowned. At- tendants from each class waited upon them. The Class of 1950 was represented by Florence Spear and Robert Goss. At Christmas we felt very proud to present our first dance, the nHolly Hop.n It was our first opportunity to entertain the student body and the dance was declared a marked success. We represented in the Student Council that year by Roger Kambour, David Landers, Walker Spring, and Richard Swain. In the fall of 1948 we became upper classmen, and this year marked a decided change in our status in the school. Mr. Kambour replaced Mr. Hood as principal and the addi- tions to the faculty were Messrs. Dempsey and Pillsbury, and the Misses Moriarty, Sharp and Gleason. Walker Spring was again elected president. His cabinet was composed of Richard Swain, Leo Woods, and Florence Spear. Welcomed members to our class were Arthur Brewster, Robert Belbin and Frank Bonarrigo. Our capable representatives in the Student Council were Roger Kam- bour, Walker Spring, Marcia Wiseman and Leo Woods. On the agenda of scheduled activities in our Junior year were two dances. In May we joined the Seniors in sponsoring the Junior-Senior Prmn It was held at the Wakefield Boat- house and it was the culminating social event of the season. The Junior boys contributed much to the success of the foot- ball team. Many of them were on the squad and the team had its first undefeated year since 1939. Being Juniors the girls were per- mitted to try out for the cheer- leading squad and five of them were chosen. The Vantine Studio, having been chosen as the class photogra- pher for the Senior year, did an excellent job in portraying the var- ious important events. I am sure that in the future some of our Ufea- ture nu bersn will provide enjoyment for the readers. Our class jewelry was designed by Dieges and Clust, who presented a distinctive line of rings and pins. The Winter Carnival was held at the Grange Hall and proved to be as successful as the previous one. Cho- sen representatives from our class were Joanne Murray and James Fleming. We entered our Senior year with enthusiasm. Most of us had definite plans for the future and the Senior year usually holds more promise for the students than the previous years. After all, a Senior has untold priv- ilegesl Then again, in spite of the privileges there is the underlying thought that this Senior year means an end to care-free school days. Some students will go on to college and others will take over the art of earning a living, - both activities will be undertaken seriously. We started our Senior year with a bang by being the first class in many years to initiate the Freshmen. This served two purposes - the Seniors has an opportunity to exhibit their authority, and the Freshmen were as- sisted over the terrible 'first days.n We were subjected to further changes in the faculty and Wilming- ton High School welcomed Mr. Pal- mieri, Miss Horner, Miss Henchy, and MI' 0 tJCI'6d.g9 0 Richard Bennett, Doris Fay and William McGondel joined the student body. Again our popular Walker Spring was elected president and his cabi- net included Leo Woods, Roger Kam- bour, and Florence Spear. The e- i lected representatives to the Student Council were James Fleming, Michael Elia, Roger Kambour, Walker Spring, Leo Woods and Robert Belbin. The Camera Club held its third Winter Carnival at the Grange Hall. Robert Goss and Florence Spear were crowned king and queen. Doris Laskey and Frank Bonarrigo served as at- tendants to the royal couple. The Class of 1950, under the expert guidance of Miss Marland, presented the play, nBrother Goose' by William Davidson. The Junior-Senior Prom was held at the Andover Country Club. It was the most important event of the year. The Club was a lovely setting for the dance and everyone agreed that it was perfect. As we look forward to graduation and the reception we wish to thank the many friends who have cooperated in making our four years outstanding. We shall strive always to live up to the high standards set by our wise and understanding teachers. We, the Class of 1950, wish the succeeding Class of 1951 the same good fortune and pleasure that we experienced. Nancy Marshall 1 KX? ki '4 . ka-r ,X ,X kwa AU REVOIR There it is, the yearbook of the class of 1950 for better or for worse, your yearbook and ours. Wefve had quite a hectic time putting it togetherg indeed perhaps our own motto might be HBy the Skin of Our Teethn since deadlines were always just around the corner. Anyway, we've done our best to give you what you wanted and to arrange it in the right way. If this book is a success it will be due to the hard work of those Seniors who have given their time and talent tc make it so. If you like the art, the literature, the humor and so on, it's because these people have strived to make it the best! This is the end. We wish we could go on and on but everything has to end sometime. The Editors Zdr 207m When Better Automobiles are built BUICK will build them HERRICK BUICK, Inc. 472 Main Street Wakefield, Mus.

There's magic in lights . . . add a light here, place a spotlight there, and your portrait takes on the appearance of real form and individuality. Your Vantine photographer knows how lighting effects can be best used . . . How easily they can reflect your personality. Your Vantine photographer knows best how to secure the sharply etched photograph your engraver desires of the important senior year . . . The victories of the athletic teams . . . The brilliance of social occasions . . . The Prom . . . The plays . . . The debates . . . The expression of everyday life on the campus. That personalized portraits by Vantine are important is attested to by the fact that over 300 schools and colleges repeatedly entrust their photo- graphic work to Vantine.
