When we stray from the fold, they are always there with welcome admonition. When we are proficient in our work, they extol us with well-earned retribution. We dedicate The Hour Glass to those who have dedicated their lives for our betterment. 3 'HL ADVER TISING G Rooney B Robertson COMPOSITION P Kras1nsk1 H Reynolds T Buckle E Murray SPORTS J' Preston R G1l11s S Buck HUUH BLHSS STHH EDITOR IN CHIEF Herbert Varley ASSOCIATE EDITORS B Rounds P Welhng A B1schoff CO MANAGERS STUDENT ACTIVITIES J Connolly I R 1char ds 4 LITERARY S Sutton B Beeler HUMOR D F1sher L Reld ART B Zmon J Fmnerty P Nelson PHOTOGRAPHY T Buckle Dear Graduates The formal educat1on you have been experlencmg for the past few years has much s1gn1f1cance for the future In many 1nstances such an educat1on IS the provmg ground for success 1n the l1fe ahead Cons1der well your actual accomphsh ments recogmze those thmgs whlch may have meant fallure and extract from all of th1s the good hab1ts and att1tudes con duc1ve to good 11v1ng I w1sh for you the sp1r1tual strength so necessary today 1n leadmg an endeavor and may your every effort be a good ex ample to your fellow man Sincerely Cllfford J Good Superlntendent of Schools Congratulatwns to the Class of 1954 upon the successful complet1on of your Hxgh School career You have the d1st1nct1on of belng the new H1gh School Some people conslder the present as the Age of Llberahsm The Four Freedoms formulated dur1ng the days of World War II stlll r1ng fresh 1n our ears The opposlte to freedom IS tyranny The opposlte to order 1S chaos There IS a growlng tendency today to go beyond freedom 1nto the realm of hcense Th1s 15 an extreme whlch must be avo1ded at all costs Today we hear the B111 of R1ghts bemg ghbly tossed about on all sldes I doubt that the framers of our COnSt1tut1OD mtended that freedom of speech press re l1g1on etc meant no speech no press no re11g1on Yet there are people who under the gu1se of our B111 of Rlghts are attempt 1ng to nulhfy all those thmgs for whlch xt was establmshed Let us be moderate ln all thmgs avoldlng extremes so that our hves and those of others may be more complete BernardP McMahon Prlnclpal first four-year class to graduate from the FHCUUU W4 ' we ,,,,..-..., ,f - 14.v .-Q, ' .

Democracy 1S a form of government of the people collectlvely by elected representatlves Most of us have grown up under th1S form of representat1ve government but some unfortunate people have been born under a government where they have no r1ghts and where all then- possess1ons belong to the state Some have been able to m1grate to countr1es where the1r d1v1ne r1ghts are not suppressed Many have sought protect1on under the Stars and Str1pes Should not we set an example of a true people's government? In the Un1ted States the cand1date for the h1ghest pos1t1on 1n the CXCCUIIVC department 1S chosen by the electoral college The number of electors 15 equal to the whole number of senators and representat1ves 1n Congress The state const1tut1on states 1n wh1ch manner the electors are to be chosen In Massachusetts each pol1t1cal party appo1nts 1ts pres1dent1al electors An elector may not however hold any Off1C6 of prof1t or trust under the Jur1sd1ct1on of the federal government When the ballots are enumerated 1n the state cap1tal those electors whose cand1dates recelved the maJor1ty of the popular votes come 1nto power Thus 1f a cand1date rece1ves a ma-1or1ty of the votes of a state be It by only one vote he TCCCIVCS all the electoral votes of that state In Massachusetts there are fourteen representatlves 1n the House and two members of the Senate totallng slxteen electoral votes As a result we have s1xteen votes out of a total of four hundred th1rty f1VG 1n the electoral college To take for an example a representat1ve 15 elected for each congress1onal d1str1ct of a state A d1str1ct 1S made up on an average of 345 000 populat1on On the extremes are the elghth congress1onal d1str1ct of Texas w1th a populat1on of 802 102 and the second d1str1ct of South Dakota Wlth 158 147 In Texas there 15 one electoral vote for 800 O00 people whereas there 1S one vote for 158 O00 c1t1zens 1n South Dakota' Can you r1ghtfully say that th1s 1S an example of true democracy? It 1S gerrymander1sm Now 1f a number of the more densely populated states were to collaborate they could eas1ly reverse the trend of an elect1on Actually a cand1date may be elected 1f he has a l1ttle more than one f1fth of the popular vote That means that four f1fthS of the voters d1d not want the elected cand1date they voted for some one else' Is th1s democracy? The Un1ted States also possesses over 750 O00 square mlles of terrltory not 1ncluded w1th1n the boundary l1ne of the forty e1ght states In Alaska HaWa11 and Puerto RICO alone there are over two and three quarter m1ll1on c1t1zens of the Un1ted States If you add to th1s f1gure the populat1on of Guam Amer1can Samoa the Vlfgln Islands and the Panama Canal Zone you arrlve at a f1gure of approxlmately three m1ll1on D1d you ever stop to th1nk that there are three m1ll1on c1t1zens of the Un1ted States who do not have the r1ght to vote? Congress alone has power over them but they do not have any vote as to who 1S elected to Congress They cannot even vote for a Pres1dent of the country of wh1ch they are c1t1zens' 70 1 4 1 . - 1 1 . 1 , . 1 1 , . , .

There is one solution to the problem: Let the president be elected by direct popular vote, and let every citizen be a first class citizen of the United States. That is let there be no second class citizens those who cannot vote' let every citizen be eligible to cast a ballot in a presidential election Herbert W Varley THE HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF 1954 ln September 1950 we entered the new Wilmington High School as the Class of 1954 Our class was the first freshman class to enter the new school which was not quite wholly completed When we first entered the doors we were timid and a little afraid of what it was going to be like to be high school students and to do what was expected of all high school students We were slightly confused about all the talk of courses that we had heard from students who were already in high school After things had settled down to the regular routine of the school year we gained self confidence We were duly 1n1t1ated as Freshmen of Wilmington High School by the Seniors It was a typical initiation and everyone took part as a good sport ln the fall of 1950 we held our first class meeting as the Class of 1954 Our first act was to elect the officers necessary to conduct the meetings which were to come The results of the elected were President Gerald Rooney Vice President Chester Carpenter Secretary Beverly Rounds and Treasurer Henry Philipone In the spring of 1951 we elected two May Queen Attendants Jane Connolly and Judith Cooke to represent the class of 1954 actually complete until later in the fall We had many new ideas and thoughts to go along with the new building This new addition to the school system saved us from the fate of attending the old high school At the close of our freshman year Mr Stephen Bean Superintendent of Schools retired and was replaced by our present Superintendent Mr Good We also lost Mr Kambour as principal who was capably replaced by Mr McMahon When we entered our Sophomore year we were under an almost completely new administration We were not quite sure what would happen under this new administration Mr Driscoll was appointed Sub master to replace Mr Donoxan Mr Barrett became our new mathematics teacher to replace Mr Tessicim Miss Mulcahy was added to the staff of the Commercial Department to replace Mrs Macklin Miss Daily became our teacher of Foreign Languages replacing Miss Henchey Miss Kelley took over the duties of Miss Bedell as Home Econ omics teacher Mr Harris was added to the staff to assist in the English Depart ment Mrs Day became the high school Secretary replacing Miss Lewis Mrs Gammons became the school Librarian to fill in the vacancy created to Mrs Day when she became the school secretary 71 When we entered high school we
