THE CflRILLOIl Published by The Senior Class of the WINOOSKI HIGH SCHOOL In the ancient town of Bruges, In the quaint old Flemish city, As the evening shades descended, Low and loud and sweetly blended. Low at times and loud at times, And changing like a poet's rhymes, Rang the beautiful wild chimes From the belfry in the market Of the ancient town of Bruges. —Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. 1 947 VOLUME THREE WINOOSKI VERMONT MARIE ANNE DUFRESNE Editor-in-Chief PAULINE LAFERRIERE Business Manager DEDICATION We, the seniors of Winooski High School, seeing our high school life in retrospect, pause to acknowledge a debt that we owe to our Principal.

Superintendent Stackpole, Principal Couture, Members of the Board of Education. Members of the Faculty, Parents. Friends and Schoolmates: The great English dramatist, William Shakespeare, has said All’s well that ends well,” but in my case I think that phrase should be amended to read, All's well that begins well.” For, you see, in my position as salutatorian, there rests upon my shoulders, the important task of opening the evening's program, of giving the keynote of the pro- gram festivities, of impressing you favorably and lending you the belief that this the most brilliant class that has ever graduated, and of putting you in an amiable and receptive humor. As spokesman for this class, I voice its earnest sentiment when I say that we are rich indeed to have so goodly a number of those who have watched our progress, re- gretted our failures, kept on having faith in us when we struggled to our feet again, and who are here today to rejoice that we have finally made the grade. We are sure it gives you satisfaction, as it does us, that we have finished what we started, and have earned certificates which attest to that fact and which entitle us to go forward to the commencement of larger things. We welcome you here today, and we hope you will feel repaid for coming, if no more than by the knowledge that we. the Class of 1947, feel highly honored by your interest and presence. We shall go forward always knowing that you are our friends; that you will watch what we are doing, and how well we are doing it, and be ready to rejoice with us when the boys and girls of this dear old school reflect glory upon it by the worthy part we are able to take in the world's work. We want you to remember that whatever we undertake will be better done and more conscientiously and intelligently performed because you have been and are our friends. You have come here tonight to witness the climax of our school career. It is true that most of us are looking to higher education and in fact, we hope never to stop learning, whether in school or out. It is indeed an occasion for which we are thankful, and for which we cannot express our deep appreciation and gratitude. To see your kind and friendly faces truly proves to us that our labor and work have their re- ward not only in grades but in the admira- tion and respect of our parents, neighbors and schoolmates. We greet you gladly. We are indeed honored by your presence. We hope you will have found it good to be here. And may all future classes graduating from this school be as favored as we have been with such good friends. Theresa Sansoucy.

On such an occasion, complete happiness is impossible. The pain of part- ing from beloved scenes and of severing the friendships of four happy, bustling years in- trudes upon the joy of achievement—the triumph of attaining a cherished goal. Even while we are exulting over the com- pletion of the courses we have set for our- selves, we turn with lumps in our throats to gaze for the last time at these dear, familiar walls where we have been at home for four idyllic years. In going forth to find our places in the world, we graduates have an eager, hopeful outlook. We lack wisdom, but we have boundless courage and a capacity for indus- try. It is true that we do not yet know the rules of the game but we have a firm faith in high ideals. If, during our years of prepara- tion, we have learned how to work, how to concentrate on difficult problems, how to search for truth, and how to make steadfast friends, the riper gifts will come of them- selves, just as soon as we learn to apply the lessons of our high school life to the weightier problems of life. The difficult part of any graduation pro- gram is to say goodbye and, in doing so, to express becomingly the appreciation and affection of the students to those from whom they part. In bidding farewell to you, the members of the board of education, who have pro- vided for us our excellent school, we extend our heartfelt thanks. You have enabled us to begin the acquisition of what Aristotle called ‘‘an ornament in prosperity, and a refuge in adversity”—an education. To Mr. Stackpole, our superintendent, to Mr. Couture, our principal, and to the patient and persevering teachers who have aided us thus far on our way we owe more of grati- tude. than can be expressed in mere words. You have guided our intellectual growth and fitted us for the duties of our vocations and the activities of citizenship. To our parents, we wish to express our appreciation for the many sacrifices they have made for us throughout the years. In saying farewell to our friends, the undergraduates, we wish to add a note of warning. It is an honorable position to which you are advancing, for to be a senior class requires dignity, poise, and a high order of mentality. Be sure you possess these attributes in abundance before attempting to occupy our high place. We wish you luck. May you be our worthy successors. And now, fellow members of the gradu- ating class, we, too, must part. This is our last appearance as a class. After tonight we shall go our separate ways, but though time and space may divide us, we shall always be joined in heart and spirit, and the mem- ories of our days in Winooski High School will always be cherished. May good fortune attend us, and may we remember that the training we have received is but the prepara- tion in our youth for the sequel of our lives. Let us find time to learn something good, since study is the task of youth, the business of maturity and the pleasure of old age. It is a mistake to say Today Education ends, Tomorrow Life Begins.” The process is continuous—the idea into the thought, the thought into the action, the action into the character. We have begun our education here in Winooski High School and now as we go out from our Alma Mater, may the spirit of this training ever be a beacon to us, guid- ing us to live complete, wholesome and satis- factory lives. Marie Anne Dufresne. — 25 HISTORIA CLASSIS The purpose of this history is not to relate every step in the progress of a people, from their humble beginnings as Freshmen, four years ago, on their arrival at the dizzy height they now occupy. On the contrary, in ac- cordance with the modern tendencies in his- torical writing, the author aims to emphasize only those factors in our cUss development which appeal to us as most vital from the standpoint of today, and to explain prevail- ing conditions and institutions by showing how they came about. We have not tabulated a series of historical occurrences under successive classroom admin- istrations but have carefully selected the great phases in the development of the class and treated them in as coherent a manner as pos- sible, considering the material with which we have to deal. It will be noted there has been no attempt on the part of the author to sentimentalize or smooth over any awkward spots in this history, but she has faithfully adhered to the truth, regardless of tradition or custom. The work is divided into 3 parts: Dis- covery, Exploration, and Settlement, with an afterword in which some strictly personal opinions are hazarded regarding the probable future of the class. Discovery The discovery of the class of 1947 was an accident. Four years ago, early one morning on September 6, 1943, the faculty of Wi- nooski High School were strolling aimlessly through the corridors, chatting about the just-ended vacation and wondering whether there would be any startling changes in their work during the coming year. Suddenly they caught a glimpse of some- thing new and strange. Just inside the front door, huddled together in mute embarrass- ment and anxiety, were the members of what became the class of 1947. To the casual eye, they seemed merely a group of ordinary boys and girls, well dressed, reasonably good look- ing, and badly frightened. But to the trained eyes of these dauntless and experienced ex- plorers, these strangers seemed distinct and widely separated individuals, each possessing aptitudes and talents, deficiencies and capabili- ties decidedly worth finding out. Gently attempting to dispel the fears of the strangers, the faculty bade them enter and spent the next few weeks attempting to gain their confidence and friendship. They succeeded, after great difficulty, in accom- plishing this. The discoverers of the class of 1947 will be celebrated in history for the gentleness and courtesy they ever displayed on September 6, 1943. The discovery having been reported to the head of the high school, Principal Couture, he received the news of this remarkable ac- quisition to his territory with marked delight and a few misgivings. He examined with interest the trophies presented by the strangers to their discoverers. Among these trophies were report cards bearing cabalistic signs supposed to denote the degree of mental alertness possessed by the owner and to show his possibilities as a future citizen of the country. It is true there were in this school those who jeered at the new people and considered it folly to regard them as of value worth an- nexing. However, the steadfast discoverers believing in what they had found, received the permission of the principal to explore carefully the natures and intellects—if any— of the strangers and, if possible, to make of them valuable additions to the country. Accordingly, each of the discoverers be- came an explorer. The strangers were divided into small groups and assigned to the care of the different explorers. They were given a name, Freshmen,” and became a part of the life of the school. They were taught many new, strange customs and manners and were required to learn difficult lessons. At first they often wished they had never been found, but, before a year was over, they be- came thoroughly at home in their new sur- roundings. The most unpleasant thing about this Freshman year was the contempt in which they were held by those who had been re- siding in the school for a longer period than they. However, understanding that this was a custom of the country, they ignored it. During the first month of this year, the Freshmen suffered much inconvenience be- cause of their unfamiliarity with the new country and its traffic rules. They were for- ever taking the wrong turning, finding them- selves in the wrong corridor, and arriving at their classroom half an hour late. Because of this they incurred heavy penalties, but by — 26 — Thanksgiving they had become familiar with the topography of the school building and were often in the right place at the right time. They were permitted to form an organiza- tion of their own, and elected the following officers, all of whom fulfilled their duties well: President, Leonard Barron; Vice-Presi- dent, Charlotte Villemaire: Secretary, Pauline Laferriere: Treasurer, Thomas Sullivan. The Freshmen became interested in a new exercise called basketball. They suffered much agony and despair during this period because of the social func- tions which they were required to attend in order to acquire poise and dignity. The male Freshmen in particular found the dances tor- ture, but the females enjoyed them greatly. In time, however, these functions became festive occasions for all. Much information was gained by the ex- ploring faculty in this first year regarding the members of the Freshman class. Their intel- lects were found to vary in keenness from sponges to razors: but, on the whole, they turned out to be very satisfactory, and some were a source of great joy to their explorers. Already some of the Freshmen were showing signs of unusual ability in various fields, such as athletics, music, and art. At the end of the year, a terrible disaster befell the Freshmen. Although it was insti- gated by their benevolent faculty and in- tended to prove of lasting benefit to them, they suffered greatly. Many had their growth retarded a year by it and a few, permanently disabled, left the Freshman class forever. This disaster was called Final Examinations, and ranks as one of the worst massacres of the time. The most important social activity that year was a Civics Club meeting to which we were all invited. Games were played and re- freshments were enjoyed by all. With the coming of the next September, they received a new name. Because of their skill in acquiring the customs of the school, they were renamed Sophomores, and the process was called by a native name. “Promo- tion.” And now a strange thing happened. Re- membering the scorn with which they had been regarded the previous year, they now adopted the same attitude toward the incom- ing strangers who took their places as Fresh- men. The routine of the classroom was now familiar and they found studying easier than before. The talents discovered the previous year were developing rapidly, and the explor- ing teachers found much to please them, but also much to astonish them. Rushing for- ward into the fastnesses of the Sophomore mind, they found strange things. The most bewildering thing to the ex- plorers was the complete absence of what they had confidently expected to find. Instead of the intellectual gold mines, the purple plains of fancy that they had hoped to see, they found vast, arid spaces totally unin- habited. However, realizing that such is the common lot of explorers, they pushed bravely on through the underbrush of ignorance, hop- ing, before the time allotted for their ex- plorations was over, to reach what would compensate for all their time and effort: a genius. The social functions of this period were delightful, the most important being the Civics Club initiation, held in the Memorial School gym. A class outing was held in June at Mallets Bay where games and roller skating were enjoyed. The class organization of the Sophomores was as follows: President. Thomas Sullivan: Vice-President, Ethel Barber: Secretary, John Korzun: Treasurer, Henry Bouffard. This was a most distinguished body and reflected honor on the entire school. In the third year, owing to an old educa- tional custom, the Sophomores became Jun- iors, and their promotion made their sense of importance increase out of all due propor- tion. Great, indeed, was their scorn for the Freshmen and the Sophomores. It must be admitted that the aforesaid Freshmen and Sophomores, completely absorbed in their own process of being explored, were in no wise embarrassed or concerned. This was a year of hard work, and the dreaded ordeal of examinations was passed with few casualties. The teachers had en- deared themselves to the hearts of the class, and there was a feeling of genuine friendship throughout the school. The officers for this year were as follows: President, Raymond Barron; Vice-President, Harry Whittemore: Secretary, Charlotte Bar- beau; Treasurer, Pauline Laferriere. Among the activities of this Junior year were: the Junior-Senior Banquet held at the Black Cat Cafe on May 29, a Hallowe’en Masquerade and an April Shower Hop. A class outing was held at Malletts Bay and everybody had a good time. It was also in this year that we chose our class ring in the hopes that we would graduate very soon. 27 — And now we come to the Fourth and greatest year in the history of the class. They automatically (as was the custom in many things), became Seniors in September. With the gaining of this title, they began to take themselves more seriously than ever before. And when I say “seriously,” I mean, seri- ously!” As the year drew to a close they were positively dizzy with dignity. All this-was looked upon with friendly amusement by the teacher-explorers, who re- garded the result of their four years of hard labor with rightful pride. They had con- verted a band of ignorant, untamed abori- gines into intelligent, courteous citizens of their great school, and had lost only the usual proportion in the process. Better yet, they had found that for which they had been searching so eagerly, a genius—in fact, several of them: and all of the class were passable. The organization of the Senior class was noteworthy, the following list of officers being in charge: President, Edmund St. Peter; Vice-President, Harry Whittemore; Secretary, Charlotte Barbeau: Treasurer, Thomas Sulli- van. The social events were of marked bril- liance. Those most worthy of note were as follows: The Harvest Moon Dance, Valen- tine Dance. The Sociology class also went on a trip to Montreal and visited all the im- portant places in the large city. A number of Seniors gained unusual dis- tinction during the year, and their names ap- peared on the honor rolls. A class song, a class will, and a class motto were adopted and used on every possible oc- casion, to the despair and annoyance of all other members of the school. But it was deemed advisable for the sake of peace for the class to ignore them as far as possible. At the expiration of the four years, the principal expressed himself as greatly pleased with the additions to his country and pro- nounced them all highly eligible for admis- sion as citizens. He praised the work of the explorers and predicted that their names, with those of their discoveries, would be written in history together. By way of appropriate celebration, a strange ceremony, known as Commencement, was held. Speeches were made, for no par- ticular reason: songs were sung, including the aforementioned class song; and scrolls called diplomas—from the Iroquois word “diplomacy,” signifying the skill and finesse it took to get one—were given to the Seniors, and a good time was enjoyed by all. Settlement This next period, settlement, is not so easy to describe. In these rapid and disturb- ing times, nothing remains settled for long, but it appears that the Seniors were urged to stay in this country to which they remained to be explored and are now ready to be settled. They have all chosen their vocations. Each is destined to become famous and honored throughout the land. Among them are the lawyers, doctors, artists, musicians, great business minds, philanthropists and what-have-you's of the coming years. We hope that among their number are also those who are destined to become discoverers and explorers of young and eager minds, which await training for citizenship and life in our great country. Appendix I It has been suggested by our best friends and severest critics that the form of this history is ambiguous, if not misleading. They say it should have been written the way it really happened: the pupils discovered the school, explored its vast resources, and settled there for four years of hard work, after which they moved on to greater things. But we say it is our history and we wrote it to suit ourselves. Appendix II It may be that we have erred on the side of restraint in writing this history. So we take the opportunity to say now that in our far from humble opinion, the class of 1947 is the most brilliant and attractive of any class known to history and will be always remembered by the faculty of the Winooski High School and the people of the town as that wonderful class of 1947.” Theresa Sansoucy. — 28 — TESTAMENTUM CLASSIS To Whom It May Concern: We, the class of 1947. in the city of Wi- nooski, the county of Chittenden, and the state of Vermont, being in as good mental condition as usual, and in much better temper than usual, do hereby make this, our last will and testament, rendering void and of no avail any former will or wills that may have been previously made by us during a period of temporary optimism. Although, being as psychologically com- plex as befits a Senior class, we consist of 26 separate and distinct entities, or what have you, we are in such complete accord, think- ing alike, and seldom, that the editorial— now, alas, funereaf— we will be used to denote our collective entity throughout this document. We have no specific directions to leave con- cerning our funeral, but we do hope you will come prepared to praise as well as bury us, forgetting only our manifold and remarkable virtues. We feel that our brilliant record and our unusual achievements will live after us, but not wishing to take any chances, we suggest that a tablet, on which shall be inscribed our several names and a few of our most astound- ing deeds, be purchased and placed in the auditorium of the school in a position where it will strike the eye of all who enter. And in this manner do we dispose of our possessions: We give and bequeath, freely and without reservations or stipulations, to the Junior class, our rightful heirs, and to their heirs and assigns forever, our most important and valuable properties, viz., our self-satisfaction, our importance, and our wisdom, all of which we possess in enormous quantities, and we hope said gifts will be of use in over- coming their present inertia. We also leave the Junior class our good luck. It made us what we are today, and it should satisfy them. In addition to this, all our privileges and rights as Seniors in class- rooms will revert to them, as well as any notebooks, pencils, fountain -pens, unfinished lollypops, or unfinished business, including debts contracted while engaged in the business of being a Senior, also any boys or girls whom we may have left behind in our haste. We give and bequeath to the Junior class our well-known nerve, which they will need next year, and all the examination questions we have been given during the past year. We believe that an examination, like history, often repeats itself. The answers, never owned in entirety, have long since been mislaid by us and are not included in this legacy. To our good friends, the Sophomore class, we leave our patience. It will be found useful as the only means by which they can endure the Juniors. To the young and unsophisticated Fresh- men we leave a map of the school building, so that they will not get lost and roam about in everybody’s way looking for their class- rooms. We include with this map our little book entitled, How to Tell the Teachers,” a pamphlet compiled by us after four years of arduous study. The legatees will notice this book is not what to tell the teachers but how. It contains specific information as to which teachers can be bluffed, which are easy and which are hard to please and those whom it is impossible to please. It tells who your favorite authors must be to stand well with the English department, which history teacher is especially fond of Napoleon, and what questions to ask to make the science teacher forget the lesson and be interesting. This information is invaluable to any wishing to make high grades in the subject mentioned. It will be noticed that, although we have left bequests to the Junior class, soon to be Seniors, to the Sophomores, soon to be Jun- iors, and to those who will, in the fall, be- come Freshmen, we have made no mention of the present Freshman class which will be known as the Sophomore class in a few months. We have left them nothing, because by that time their self-valuation will have attained such heights that nothing in our pos- session would be regarded by them as worthy distinction. To our dear old school building itself, we leave the peaceful quiet caused by our absence and any apple cores, wads of gum, or crumpled notes we may have left about. To our class adviser, Mrs. Prior, we give and bequeath a sense of relief that we have at last been graduated, pleasant memories of our four years together, and a feeling of pride in any great deeds or noteworthy achieve- ments that our future may contain, realizing that such glories—if any—we'll owe to her example and counsel. To our principal and to our teachers, the faculty of the Winooski High School, we — 29 — hereby give, free from all inheritance, luxury, or income tax, our entire store of knowledge. From them it came and to them it should be returned, that others may be benefited by it as we have been. Along with this knowledge is bequeathed much additional information obtained by original research and contempla- tion. We feel that it will prove sufficiently startling to merit consideration and might even, with profit, be incorporated in the next course of study. We lack space for details, but shall simply state that our arguments against final examinations, as well as those for bigger and better holidays, and no higher mathematics, not to mention our shortened list of requirements for graduation, are of vital importance and should be familiar to every earnest student of education. To our teachers we bequeath our valuable sense of humor, without which we should have found school life painful indeed and which will do much to make it endurable for them. We also give and bequeath to the teachers our very kindest regards and our sincere gratitude for their unfailing kindness and aid. To the next year's class president we leave —with grave doubts as to his ability to use it—the stentorian voice of our good presi- dent, Edmund St. Peter, which enabled him to overcome all opposition and to prevent others from knowing opposition existed. Also, we leave his ability to keep on good terms with the faculty and still do as he pleases; in other words, his executive ability, and to the history of the Winooski High School we bequeath our illustrious deed and our names as candidates for the Hall of Fame. The Smaller Individual Bequests are as Fol- lows : To the undergraduate needing it most, we give Fred Hawley's supply of language, which will enable the recipient to talk more and say less than any other human being. Also, to the undergraduate who is most in danger of not passing next year, we bequeath Gerald Zeno’s store of information, which will make it easy for him to pass any test in any subject, at any time. To the over-ambitious undergraduate—if such there be—we leave the perfect indolence of the Eighth Grade. Some people sit and waste time. The Eighth Grade just sits. This indolence, properly used, will insure him against nervous breakdowns resulting from overstudy and fully qualify him, later in life, for the job of founding a phoney oriental cult, which specializes in relaxation and re- pose. To the laziest member of the Senior class- to-be—we bequeath Leonard Barron’s ambi- tion. If it is combined with the laziness pre- viously mentioned, the result will be normal activity. To the Junior class we give, reluctantly but of necessity, our mantle of dignity. We realize that the class can never fill it but, since it is expected of them, our advice is, Grin and Wear it.” To Ted Companion—Len Barron leaves his way-with women. To Theresa Santerre—Marie Anne Dufresne leaves her magnetic personality. To Solange Deforge—Theresa Bergeron leaves her book on how to reduce (which hasn't worked yet). To Gertrude Fournier—Joan Kane leaves her shy ways. To Ernie Vuley-—Edmund St. Peter leaves his book on How to Be President of the Senior Class and Sue- - ceed at It.” To June Beaudoin—Frank Thompson leaves his last name for her to make use of in her future years. To Les Reid—Zum Villemaire leaves his beard. To Herbert Abair—Clem Hebert leaeves his honored position in the liquor store. To Barb Provost—Gloria Parizo leaves her way with Mrs. Prior. To Jeanie Favreau—Tess Ledoux leaves her alarm clock that will help her to be as punctual as Tess has been in the past year. ToDorlene Dorey—Charlotte Villemaire leaves the book closet in Mrs. Prior’s room. To Theresa Myers—Norma Millette leaves her book entitled Jitterbugging.” F o Dorothy Stone—Pauline Laferriere leaves her so- phistication. To Shirley Paquette — Charlotte Barbeau leaves her hour-glass figure. To Joseph Lamartire—Tom Sullivan leaves his abil- ity to play basketball. To Johnny Provost—Zeke Zeno leaves his curly hair. To Larry Hendy—Fred Hawley leaves his typing abil- ity. T o Barbara Gar row—Marie Anne Dufresne leaves her position as editor-in-chief of the CARILLON. To Paul Dufresne—Floyd Hendy leaves his role as lover in the senior play. To Claire Hatin—Audrey Mayo leaves her golden voice to thrill thousands of men. To Fernande Faubert—Theresa Brunelle leaves her little black book and sweet line of chatter. To Herman Poulin—Oscar Sheppard leaves his affable grin. To Leon Ignaszeivski — Harry Whittemore leaves his quiet charm and manner. To Carl Provost—Tommy Sullivan leaves his yen for jazz music. To Theresa St. Peter—Katherine Vartuli leaves her love for blondes. To Mary Merchant—Amelia Nicholas leaves her wink- ing habit. To Joyce Boucher—Theresa Sansoucy leaves her little joke book. To Lorraine Granger—Katherine Vartuli and Norma Millette leave their ability in basketball. — 30 — To Jeanette Boucher—Joan Kane leaves her love let- ters.” To Rose Williams—Pauline Laferrierc leaves her ability at solving algebraic equations. Besides these bequests, we leave our best wishes to any and all who may desire them. Any property or personal possessions of ours that may remain in addition to the items specified we give and bequeath to the Wi- nooski Bo%rd of Education to use as it sees fit. We can think of nothing that we have forgotten except our old books, and we sug- gest that they be given to the Freshman class, thus saving money which may be applied either to the teachers' salaries or toward the purchase of mouth organs, ukeleles, and ka- zoos for a school orchestra. Finally, we do hereby name and appoint as the sole executor of this, our last will and testament, our class adviser. Mrs. Frances T. Prior. In witness whereof we. the class of 1947, the testator, have set our hand and seal on this 6th day of June in the year of 1947. Signed: The Class of 1947. Leo Villemaire.

Everywhere in the city of Wi- nooski are huge posters reading. Old Home Week.” Many days ago, invitations were sent to all former residents urging them to attend and stressing particularly this evening when a wonderful entertainment is to be given. All the talent for this program is strictly home talent. Every performer was at one time a resident of this city and was gradu- ated from our high school. The hour for the great event has arrived. Every seat in the vast auditorium is filled, and all are eagerly awaiting the performance, in which many delightful surprises have been promised. The platform is a mass of beautiful flowers and autumn leaves and the walls are hung with garlands of pine and laurel. It is truly a festive sight. Seated in the audience are many celebrities. As I look about me, I see a number of my old classmates. There is Harry Whittemore, our kind-hearted friend, who became very wealthy through wise investments, and is now a noted philanthropist. His money is paying for much of the Old Home Week expenditures. The ladies in the front row seats are all so stylishly and becomingly dressed that they arouse my curiosity. I am told that their beautiful garments come from the very select shop of Georgette Lavallee, who designs gowns for all the best-dressed women in the country. She is here herself, and she looks “the glass of fashion and the mold of form.” Seated near her is Gerald Zeno,' a real estate dealer who owns so much property that he has to keep a card index of it in order to know it himself. He has given the use of the auditorium and the spacious park, both of which belong to him. Seated at one side, watching with interest, I see Theresa Bergeron, dignified and haughty. I asked about her and am told that she is the mistress of a very fashionable girls’ school in Northfield, Vermont; she has had many suitors, but has never married. Standing in the door, looking for old friends, I find Fred Hawley, editor of the largest daily paper in the state, and very active politically. Except that he has grown a trifle stouter and looks more cheerful than ever. he has not changed one bit since his high school days. Two people now entering receive a warm reception from the committee at the door. They are Dr. Thomas Sullivan, a famous surgeon in a large hospital, and. attractive as ever, Katherine Vartuli, superintendent of nurses in the same hospital. If there are any accidents tonight we feel sure the sufferers will be properly attended to with Katherine and Tommy on the job. A round of applause greets the man just taking a seat by the window. He looks familiar and yet not quite familiar enough. I can’t tell who he is. Oh, he waves his hand around and talks excitedly. Now I know who he is, Frank Thompson. And what do you suppose he is? Remember how he used to love astronomy and meteorology and all that stuff? He's turned his knowledge to good account and now he is the weather man. Yes, indeed. It was he who furnished the splendid weather for the Old Home Week,” and that is why he was so wildly applauded. Every day he sends out his little bulletin and often the weather is just as he predicted. A woman is sketching the people as they come in and doing it very well, indeed, for I peep over her shoulder to see. Of course you know who that is. Yes, it's Joan Kane. They say she has become famous as an illus- trator of magazine stories and newspaper articles. Remember her drawings in art class? And now the entertainment is to begin. There is a hushed expectancy. The lights in the auditorium fade and the footlights flash on. Before the packed house appears a tall, dignified figure who makes an eloquent ad- dress of welcome. Some of the well-turned phrases sound pleasingly familiar. I remember our famous class debater, Edmund St. Peter. It is he, indeed. He was a lawyer for a time and now is a judge of the state supreme court. He.acts as master of ceremonies, also, and after his excellent speech introduces the per- formers. But first he calls attention to the beautiful flowers and other decorations, saying that they were the gift of Charlotte Barbeau, now the leading florist of the town. I remember — 33 — her exquisite taste in decorations in years gone by, and am not at all surprised. The judge announces that after the enter- tainment refreshments will be served through the courtesy of Theresa Ledoux, who is pro- prietor of the delightful Old Home Tea Room. As he speaks the words my mouth waters in anticipation, for I have not for- gotten the delightful refreshments she used to serve to the class years ago. Now the entertainment proper begins. There is gay music, like circus music. Then on the darkened stage in the spotlight ap- pears a dainty figure, kissing her hand to the audience as an attendant arranges a wire across the stage. My goodness, it's Theresa Brunelle, who always said she would be a dancer in the circus. She has certainly kept her word, for she gives us a wonderful per- formance. The judge says she is the most clever wire dancer in the world. What a salary she must get! Then the judge introduces a prosperous- looking man who he says is a Broadway song writer and the author of many popular song hits. It is Leonard Barron, and he plays and sings for us his last three compositions and very good they are, too. One, written es- pecially for the occasion and called Old Home Folks makes a decided hit with his audience. Next comes a big surprise: Miss Glorianna DeLorne. the movie actress: and it is our old friend, Audrey Mayo, very much changed. She has golden hair and is better looking than ever, but she seems to have acquired a foreign accent. Now she’s dropped the accent, and is talking as she used to talk. She’s telling all about Hollywood and how she became famous. She asks if we remember the imita- tions she used in study hour when the teacher was called out of the room. And we all remember. It's no surprise to us that she’s such a success in the pictures. That girl could play anything from Juliet to Mother Goose. Next is a famous violinist who plays the most beautiful music for us. Yes, of course, it's Clement Hebert, and he plays even better than we always said he would. He has just returned from a concert tour of Europe. In fact, he returned a week earlier than he had intended, just to attend Old Home Week's celebration. The spotlight is now shifted to the great auditorium organ, and the judge introduces Marie Anne Dufresne, now organist in a city church and teacher in an institute of organ music. She plays beautifully, and looks now not a day older than when she played in the school orchestra. And now, out upon the platform strolls Floyd Handy, with a little book in his hand. He needs no introduction from the judge, for we all recognize him at once, Jalna, the author of those delightful short stories. He reads us two of them and then gives a charm- ing little talk, telling how his friends and the old home town inspired many of his best stories. Oscar Sheppard, secretary to Haile Se- lassie in Ethiopia, is the next speaker. He gives us a graphic account of his life in an Ethiopian Palace. Oscar will soon relinquish his single blessedness. He will marry Dawn Hope of Hollywood. Looking stunning in elaborate evening gowns are Charlotte Villemaire, Theresa Sansoucy, Amelia Nichols, Norma Millette, and Pauline Laferriere. They own a hospital in Alaska and flew here for Old Home Week. Charlotte Villemaire is an X-ray technician. Theresa Sansoucy is the hospital superintend- ent. Amelia Nicholas the anesthetist. Norma Millette, the orthodontist and Pauline La- ferriere, the hospital psychiatrist. Leo Villemaire, Broadway’s famous play writer, is visiting with old friends who are extending congratulations to him on his re- ceiving the Nobel Prize for his most recent play, Flaming Youth.” Raymond Julian is Leo's financial advisor and you may be interested to know that Charlotte Villemaire will soon leave the sub- zero Alaskan climate to become Mrs. Julian. It has been a real delight to see all our old friends so young and prosperous, so generous of their money and talent. In short, it has been an Old Home Week to be proud of and the old home folks should be happy to have such celebrities as these for their very own. I, Gloria Parizo, am keeping a pet shop. I specialize in eels, ichneumons and elephants. I also train Japanese beetles. It is interesting work and in my spare time I gaze into my crystal ball which is in the center of my shop. I see my classmates as they travel from place to place. I expect the class of 1947 will visit me tonight before they leave town. We shall enjoy some refreshments and then we shall sing Auld Lang Syne until our next Home Week reunion in 1967. Gloria Parizo. — 34 THE CLASS As the mouthpiece of this, the graduating class of 1947, I feel it my duty to broadcast the fact that our greatest outstanding virtue as a group, is Modesty. We have always been exceedingly particular not to overstate. Truth-in Advertising is our middle name! So much by way of introduction! We feel that we are justified in saying that considering our numbers, our capacities for absorbing knowledge, and our ability to con- centrate, that we have made as good a record, academically, as could possibly be expected of us. Our class has been honored from time to time, and these honors of different kinds have all been richly merited. Few, if any, of us were born great. Certainly none of us have greatness thrust upon us. But a measure of greatness at least in our several courses and spheres, has been achieved by many of this, the class of 1947, and we have no hesitation whatever in expressing the firm conviction that as time rolls on and our class members take their places in world affairs, that there shall be discovered among them as illustrious individuals as Herbert Hoover, Owen D. Young, Mary Roberts Rinehart, etc. We feel that as a matter of honesty we must admit to a high rating in point of beauty, agility of brains and bodies. THE CLASS It is a good deal of a mystery to me why I have been dubbed The Class Pessimist. I have always prided myself on being plain spoken and in calling a spade a spade. Why I should presume to think that I could de- ceive anyone by naming so humble a tool, a royal scepter or a fairy wand, I do not know. I am ready at least to pay others the compli- ment of having as good eyesight and as great a sense of honesty as myself. When I enrolled in this particular educa- tional institution, the Winooski High School, I fully expected that I should be associated with and surrounded by ambitious, intelligent and serious minded students. Imagine my surprise and disappointment to OPTIMIST The influence exerted by this class upon underclassmen has been, we are certain, of the best, and we trust that they will feel last- ing gratitude and appreciation in consequence. In looking back over the years we have spent in the environment of Winooski High School, we would not change anything. Everything that has been is undoubtedly for the best. We may not always understand at the moment, but we realize that in these days of our student life a marvelous Mosaic has been wrought of rare beauty and perfection. We feel only tenderness and regret in leaving, but those emotions in themselves are en- nobling, and we would not have changed them for the wealth of the Indies. We will not say that ours has been the best class ever graduated, or that will ever be graduated, but we do believe that no number going forth in any one year ever has had, or ever will have dearer hearts, deeper alfection for their Alma Mater, or finer loyalty to the higher standards of the humanities. And we believe that the service to be rendered by the individual and in the aggregate will make a decided impact in the shaping of national and world affairs. We are optimistic because we have a right to be. Leonard Barron. PESSIMIST find myself in the midst of a bunch of frivo- lous souls-frivolous without exception. I am speaking now of the student body. And of all the irresponsible and careless and highty-tighty youths and maidens, these, I frankly believe, would take the cake! They are all of them ready to enjoy the good things of life, and to give as little in return as they possibly can. They are ready to take a maxi- mum of credit and praise for a minimum of work. As far as I have been able to discover, they are much more interested in learning the latest bit of slang, than to master the lan- guages and sciences and acquire polish and culture. From time to time I have looked around 35 at the enrolled students of this school, and I’ll admit that what I see and hear makes me very gloomy. The Frosh are inexpressibly immature. Either they do not realize this or they do not care, for their self-complacency and failure to take advantage of their opportunities are posi- tively shocking. The Sophomores are only slightly if any better. Most of them show their true disposi- tions by trying to imitate upperclassmen, and bear down on and make uncomfortable, the Freshmen. You’ll acknowledge that this is not a noble attitude, and that a group of this kind cannot be depended upon to become outstanding world leaders. The Juniors who have infested the campus since my arrival on the scene, have mostly succeeded in developing swelled heads. How long some of them will succeed in remaining at large is a question. I shudder to think of the possibilities, and I hope that when the time comes for some of them to be measured and Bertilloned, that they will suppress the fact that they attended this high school. They are in duty bound to do this out of loyalty to the ideals of the founders of this school. If it were possible I should pass in silence the matter of the Senior or graduating class, for I, who have been associated with them, know all too well their weaknesses and failures. When it comes to handsome men and charming women, we indeed have your sym- pathy. But we are comforted by the thought that after all, beauty is only skin deep, and sometimes it isn’t that deep—for nowadays complexions are appliqued over the surface —a sort of gold leaf effect or a veneer. And it has been rather shocking to see both men and women powdering their noses and apply- ing laboratory roses to their countenances in public. But if they are satisfied with the hand- painted effects achieved, I for one can put up with it. We have been singularly unfortunate in the selection of our officers. They have wanted to be in the limelight all the time. They have seemingly been anxious that the rest of us do the work while they gathered to them- selves the credit and honors. Our class motto was a scream, so was our class yell. And when it comes to our class colors, our class flower, and our alumni or- ganization, I can’t help but feel that some- body has framed up a series of practical jokes. There have been times all through the course when I doubted that we should ever graduate. On the one hand I congratulate this class of which I am a member, that under the circumstances they have ever done so. And on the other hand, I congratulate the faculty that, considering the material with which they had to work—myself excepted, that they have hoed to the end of the row. It’s hard, if not impossible, to find a pile of willow in a wood working factory, and to handle it so that it will come out mahogany. In the years to come when the alumni come back to this school I am wondering what sort of an impression this class will make upon other alumni groups. Some, I am sure, will be fat and bald-headed and toothless, others, if present indications are to be relied upon, will be mere echoes, and what I might say, regular ’’yes’’ men. Some few of the worriers will probably still be alive to keep up their usual fussing about all sorts of in- consequential things. It seems most unfair that so many odd (to put it tenderly) individuals should be assembled in this particular class, but I take it that the Fates felt it would be far better to make up one grand assortment nearly all (myself excepted) of a kind, than to spoil a number of classes by sprinkling these students among the classes of the years. I can't help but be sorry for myself at times. You know The saddest words of tongue or pen are, it might have been. It seems impossible that it could have been worse! We are going forth into the big, round world, and what the world is going to do with us I can’t imagine. In a hopeful mo- ment I have dared to think that perhaps the world will be better because we have lived, provided our child-like mentalities and tem- peraments awaken a spirit of tolerance and sympathy and service on the part of the other inhabitants with whom we make con- tact in this vale of tears. We would have those of you who can possibly manage it, remember us kindly. Probably the worst is yet to come!

Saucier with Mrs. Frances Prior as accompanist, accomplish its most extensive program since its foundation in 1940. Its first program was a Christmas concert rendered at a PTA meeting in the assembly hall of the high school. The program was as follows: “Jolly Winter ................... Glee Club “White Christmas Glee Club (Arrangement by Mr. Saucier) “Vous Dansez Marquise”—Solo Claire Hatin “Silent Night” .................. Glee Club “Brahms' Lullaby —Solo . Marian Sallah “O Come. All Ye Faithful Glee Club “Cantique de Noel”—Solo Claire Hatin “Vocal Combat” Glee Club (Arrangement by Mr. Saucier) “When Johnny Comes Marching Home (Arrangement by Mr. Saucier) Glee Club The special arrangements by Mr. Saucier were the highlights of the evening's performance. Our first program was highly lauded, and the audience was more than proud of their local Glee Club. Next came the much talked about and highly praised Dixieland Minstrels under the direction of Jack Daley of Burlington. The forty-two choristers of the Glee Club were rehearsed both by Mr. Saucier and Mrs. Prior and formed the choral background of the min- strel. The show, very well received at the two presen- tations at the Winooski Memorial School Auditorium in December, became very much in demand. The Dixieland players played to capacity audiences, twice in Burlington at the former USO building sponsored by the AMVETS. and once at Waterbury High School Auditorium on that never-to-be-forgotten night when the Dixieland troopers braved a blizzard to put on their show before a capacity and appreciative audience. The six presentations were sponsored by the Winooski — 46 — PTA. and turned out to be the best financial success in the history of the school. The Winooski High School Glee Club, along with the Burlington and Cathedral High School Glee Clubs, had charge of the promoting of the sale of tickets for the original Don Cossack Chorus under the direction of Serge Jaroff presented at the Memorial Auditorium in Burlington, March 3. The annual Glee Club banquet was held at The Happy Acres on April 7. where Mr. Stackpole. super- intendent of schools, presented each member of the club with achievement awards. These awards were gifts of the Winooski PTA. Mr. Saucier, director, was presented a loving cup by members of the club, and Mrs. Prior, accompanist was presented with a travel clock, as tokens of appreciation. This year the Winooski High School Glee Club has twenty-one representatives in the All-State Chorus of the Vermont Music Festival held in May. This was the largest group in the history of the club to repre- sent W. H. S. The twenty-one representative all- staters. were trained by Mr. Saucier, director, after school and at nightly rehearsals. The all-state choral program was as follows: Girls “Birds of Passage .....................Hildach The Lilac Tree ........................Girtlan Boys Passing By” ...........................Purcell Shortnin’ Bread C. C. B.

Glee Club for the year 1945-46: Mr. Woodbury (conductor of the 1947 All-State Chorus), critic for Glee Club concerts at the City Hall Auditorium in Burlington during the 1945-46 Music Festival highly praised the mixed Glee Club from Winooski High School. Parts he touched on were the excellent appearance of the group and their good posture. He cited the group also for their very good diction throughout the prettiness of tone place- ment and the excellent spirit in which the group sang. Quoting from paragraph one of Mr. Woodbury's let- ter: The evident enjoyment on the part of the audi- ence is indicative of the fact that your group sings with excellent spirit. This is an excellent club. The numbers rendered at 1947 commencement ex- ercises were: The Rosary”—Solo .

In recognition of the importance of this day, not only to the members of the Senior class, but to the community at large, I do hereby proclaim this as a day to be set aside for student frivolities and scholastic cere- monies; to be appropriately celebrated with reverberating vocal melodies, and various and diverse forms of jollification in keeping with the dignity and lofty position of the afore- mentioned Senior Class. I do hereby likewise enact and decree that with profuse and extensive expressions of gratitude we shall return thanks to the faculty members who have—by hook or crook— pulled us through the many and various classes of High School; and to the towns- people who have not only supplied us the privileges of the said school, but have en- dured our delinquencies as students. In recognition of the four years of vic- torious sliding through classes and bluffing our teachers, and of the various and illu- minating bits of knowledge pounded into our heads by said persevering instructors, I do request that each member of the Senior Class enter into the ceremonials of this day with proper spirit that we may demonstrate our ability and establish our record as the most brainy and noisy class yet sent forth by this justly famed Winooski High. To the proper enactment of which, I hereby give my voice, backed by the power vested in me as president of this class.

She is full of pep, and inclined to get into scrapes. She overhears her mother plotting with her sister Lucille to get rid of her for the afternoon, while they entertain a matrimonial prospect for Lucille. Betty swaps places with the maid and comes in to serve the tea. The family does not dare to give her away and Larry, the intended victim, falls hard for Betty and the play moves along at a fine gait. The play is filled with hilarious situations, and the cast did a commendable job of interpretation. The following students made up the cast under the direction of Principal Arthur P. Couture.

St. Albans, March 20, 1947. The play was a drama entitled, I Shall Be Waiting.” The play is about a mother who has become temporarily blind. Her only son is serving time for robbery and the true facts have been kept from her. Through the unfailing devotion and loyalty of her daugh- ter. she receives imaginary letters from her son, supposedly a salesman in South America and she answers regularly. On the day when an operation is to be performed to restore her sight, her son comes home after escaping from the penitentiary. His presence there is concealed from her, and a very touching scene takes place when the mother dictates a letter to her son as he sits there listening. His heart has been touched and he leaves to give himself up. Meanwhile, the clerk from the local drug store, unaware of the situation, expresses the opinion that her son certainly had spunk to come back home. The mother, realizing the situation, insists that her son is in South America. The play ends with the mother’s prayer that God send him back to me, for I shall be waiting.” The play was under the capable direction of Arthur P. Couture, and the cast was as follows: Carl Standing Richard Campbell Mrs. Standing Rose-Marie Kondra Dr. Brandt Lawrence Handy Joan Standing Anne Lister Peter Jeffrey Douglas Crowley — 57 — CHEERLEADERS Team Fight Sis Boom Bah Winooski High School Rah Rah Rah With colots flying the Green and White Cheering Corps of '46 and ’47 cheered their last game at the Class 'B' Tournament in Barre. The cheering squad was among the most active and industrious organizations of this year. Despite being handicapped by the fact that only two experienced cheerleaders re- turned to train two new squads—they worked faithfully throughout the season. The girls were fortunate in being able to attend both home and out of town games and also in being able to attend the Class B Tournament in Barre. Not content with the old cheers, the girls developed new ones. Among the best liked was the Millers.” the 'WIN.” and the We've Got A Team.” These cheers became very popular with the student body. The Varsity was captained by Audrey Mayo, who has spent four years on the squad. Starting as a regular in her first year, she worked her way up to the position of captain. Other members of the varsity were: June Beaudoin. Ann Lister. Pauline Laferriere, and Geneva Dashnow. Something new was added to the squad this year: that is a JV cheering squad. The Junior Varsity consisted of four new cheerleaders. They were Mary Jane Arcand. Thelma Mer- cure, Connie Jarvis, and Helen Debarge. The coach Miss Catherine -Garvey, will rely on June Beaudoin, Ann Lister and Gen- eva Dashnow from this year's Varsity squad to train new members next season. Captain Mayo and Pauline Laferriere will be lost by gradua- tion. — 59 BASKETBALL After a poor start in which they lost two Green Mountain League games by two and three point margins Winooski’s Mighty Mites went to work on the rest of the schedule with determination. Captain Tommy Sullivan led the way for a team that was not supposed to accomplish anything in the way of compari- son with the previous Winooski edition. Sully again walked off with every honor available in basketball in this section. He again led the newspaper choices for All-Northern League, made the Class JB all-tourney team as its captain, captured Northern League scor- ing honors, and placed second in the Green Mountain League scoring race. The story of a basketball team, however, is never that of one plyaer alone. Although Sully led the way individually, he also led in another way. As one of the best schoolboy players in the state Sully at all times handled his team well on the floor. As its playmaker and leading scorer there was not a more valua- ble player in this area. Teaming up with his captain all through the season was Johnny Provost who played aggressively and dangerously in every game. Johnny came into his own during the B tourney and really captured the fancy of the crowd. In an unprecedented move in a tour- ney Johnny too was named to the B all-tour- nament team. It has never been policy to name two players from a losing finalist to this group. Provost's scoring punch was a threat all during the season. His ability and will- ingness to work hard in each ball game were a deciding factor in many Winooski wins. — 60 — Four other boys made up the personnel of the varsity group. Gerald Greene at center provided a scoring threat that saw him punch 187 points through the strings this season. Ernest Vuley's speed and determination made him a valuable asset. Leslie Reid was one of the few big boys on the varsity squad. As a guard his size played a necessary part in the success of the team. The most improved player on the team was Freshman Joe Mercure. Although his age legislated against full game activity. Joe was used in spots to good ad- vantage. His play in the tournament was a great aid in the team's march to the final game. A few games will serve to highlight the sea- son's play. The Millers were at their best in two spots during the year. These came at the right time during the season. Shortly after the Christmas layoff the team hit its peak against a good St. Michael's High School of Montpelier. The Mikemen had beaten the Millers by two points in the season's opener. In general they had been the fly in the oint- ment” for some time. Playing a great game the Winooski boys turned the tables on the eventual Green Mountain League champs 46-37 at Montpelier. Sporting a season’s record of eleven wins and nine losses cost the Millers an outright bid to the B tourney. The Headmaster's Council ordered a playoff game between Winooski and Middlebury. In a game played at Burlington's Memorial Auditorium the boys took an easy win in determined fashion 46-33. The scoring was split among all six of the varsity group. At the B tournament—the most successful that a Winooski team has ever entered, the team upset Pittsford 50-46 and favored St. Michael’s 35-30. St. Mike’s had previously beaten the Green and White three years run- ning in this same tournament. It is a tribute to this group that they could conquer this mental handicap and outplay a team that was figured to be the Winooski jinx. In the finals the Millers led much of the first half but succumbed in the last half to a few quick offensive thrusts by West Rutland. The game was a fine exhibition before a capa- city crowd. Stamina and maturity told the story. A leaner West Side crew was better able to stay in playing trim for three games in three days.

Most of these boys were retained on the varsity squad all year. It is to their credit that during times when chances to play were not always there, they stuck by their team and reported faithfully for practices. Al- though they lost one more game than they won the improvement of these boys during the course of the year causes many Winooski fans to look for a good big team soon. Richard Sweeney, Paul Kane. Richard Guertin, Marcel Fregeau, Norman Bergeron, and Donald Lacharite played the greater part of the time and led the way to two memorable victories over the Cathedral Junior Varsity squad. One of the best games of the year was the last one played against the Burlington Boys Club. This team composed of boys with a great deal of basketball experience met its nemesis in Winooski and lost a well-played game to the Junior Millers 45-42. Dick Sweeney threw in twenty points for his best night of the year. In nineteen games played the youngsters managed to gain nine wins. Some of the losses on the record were tightly played ball games. 62 — JUNIOR VARSITY BASKETBALL RECORD — 1946 47 Opp. W St Michael's J V 21 16 Waterbury J-V 16 20 People’s Academy J-V 17 20 St. Mary's J-V 6 34 Northfield J-V 30 23 Cathedral J-V 14 22 St. Michael’s J-V 23 22 Burlington J-V 41 16 Waterbury J-V 14 23 Montpelier J-V 42 24 Northfield J-V 17 9 BFA J-V 29 22 People’s Academy J-V 22 30 Cathedral J-V 25 26 Burlington J-V 41 9 Montpelier J-V 22 12 St. Mary's J-V . 21 38 BFA J-V 14 26 Burlington Boys' Club 42 45 Totals 457 437 Individual Scoring FG.

The girls played several schools which have had very strong teams and this year was no ex- ception. Although only 3 games out of 12 were won, still everyone got a great deal of enjoyment and benefit from the physical activity. The following students were members of the Varsity and Junior Varsity: Katherine Vartuli. Captain June Beaudoin Norma Millette Rose Kondra Shirley Paquette Joan Bellefeuille Theresa Sansoucy Margaret Conner Audrey Mayo Eleanor Garrow Gloria Parizo Joyce Boucher Joan Kane Elaine Beveridge Lorraine Granger Charlotte Barbeau and Theresa Myers, Managers — 64 — Captain Katherine Vartuli BASEBALL Winooski High School's 1945 champs re- turned to school almost intact in lineup for another campaign. With the exception of Captain Ray Villemaire and Bob Blanchard all other regulars were present. So it was that the 1946 vehicle went to work on their Northern League opponents with a vengeance. Charley Crowley ably filled the spot behind the plate which Ray Villemaire left; and big Gerald Greene stepped to the mound a few times to fill the vacuum left by rotund Bob Blanchard. By a one game margin the Millers failed to win their third straight Northern League Bunting. These mishaps occurred in the last games of the year against Spaulding and Cathedral. Burlington went on from their Northern League victory to take the state crown. A number of Winooski regulars played their last scholastic games for the Millers in 1946. In most cases these boys had com- peted from the start of their high school careers as freshmen. Howard Thompson, all- league first baseman, banged out 16 hits in 10 games to lead his club at the plate with a good average of .421. Babe Potvin, all-league outfielder had a good year in the outer gar- dens with a .325 batting average. Don Com- panion, A1 Billups, Don Leduc, and Gerard Villemaire played a last season well in a Winooski uniform. As was the case in the last few years, the story of last year's season rested on the pitcher's mound. Tom Sullivan and Gerald Greene did yeoman work from that location. Lack of adequate fielding support lost three games for the club—the only three that they did lose. At no time, however, were the boys ever at a loss for pitching strength. — 65 — PLAY-BY-PLAY Winooski 5—Spaulding 1 The Millers started their defense of their Northern League championship in auspicious fashion by fashioning a 5-1 victory over Spaulding High School of Barre. Tommy Sullivan really handcuffed the Caseymen over a seven inning stint. Gerald Greene took over for the last two frames and allowed one run due to wildness in his first appearance on the mound. The Millers got their runs in the sixth, seventh and eighth when a few hits and five misplays by the Spaulding infield opened the door. Babe Potvin rapped out three big blows. Winooski 1—Burlington 2 In a real thriller that went twelve innings to a decision the Millers threw away a ball game that should have been won in nine. Tommy Sullivan and Doc Newton came to- gether in a pitcher's duel worthy of pro base- ball. Both pitched effectively over the whole route with neither allowing any earned runs for the day. Winooski 2—Montpelier 0 In another game that took the late innings to decide it, Sullivan outlasted Bobby Kynoch in another mound duel. The Solons man- aged only three hits off Sully’s lefty slants. Don Companion started a two-run rally in the ninth with a single—Thompson followed with another—Potvin singled one run home with a sharp hit to center and Sully got the other with a deep fly to the same place. That was enough. Winooski 24—BFA 2 In a scorekeeper's nightmare the Millers really blasted the Railroad city hurlers for their third win of the year. Gerald Greene made his first starting assignment a memorable one by pitching what every pitcher wants to do—a no-hit game. Seventeen big blows came off the Winooski bats and the biggest of all was Sully's four-master over the right field fence. Babe Potvin got two doubles and a triple in five tries. Winooski 5—Cathedral 3 In another extra-inning thriller the Millers finally got to the Little Indian’s George Daigler in the eleventh for two big runs to take a 5-3 decision for the fourth win. Sully gave up but three blows in limiting the hit- conscious Cathedralites big guns to a bad afternoon at the plate. With one out Johnny Provost walked in the eleventh. Don Com- panion followed with a hard single to right that pushed Provost to third. Companion went to second on a steal and left everything up to Captain Howard Thompson. Howard blasted one of Daigler's pitches into deep left- center for two bases and two runs that sewed up the game. Winooski 5—Burlington 4 Johnny Provost almost waited too long to get his 1946 hit. He came up with it at the right time, however, and brought home a big victory over Burlington and Doc Newton. With the count at four all in the last half of the ninth Don Leduc blasted a pitch into right. A1 Billups moved him along into scoring position with a sacrifice. Johnny shot one of Newton's hard ones over Snow's head into deep right-center for the winning run. Sully pitched this one all the way but weakened in the last innings as Bur- lington came from behind to tie the game in the ninth. Winooski 6—Montpelier 1 Gerald Greene started his second game on the mound for the Millers and gave a good account of himself in a morning Memorial Day clash with Montpelier. With Tommy Sullivan sitting this one out for a much-needed rest the Millers went right to work in the first frame and notched four big runs. Thomp- son, Potvin, Villemaire, and Leduc all got hits to lead the way. The Winooski team got single runs in the fifth and seventh while Montpelier got one back in the fifth. Thomp- son hit four for four for the day, while Crowley and Villemaire got two each. Winooski 2—BFA 0 Greene started his second game in as many played as he tied up with BFA's Guertin in a mound duel that was tense all the way. BFA threatened in the fourth and seventh but these rallies were stopped by tight infield play. Babe Potvin fattened his BA with two hits. Winooski 3—Spaulding 4 The bubble burst in this one. Seven errors in the infield made this game tighter than it should have been. In the most discussed game in many a year Spaulding threw the Northern League race into a deadlock by beat- ing the Millers by one run in Winooski. A protest relative to the final decision on this game was upheld but the game remains on the record books as a Spaulding win. In the hearts of many local players and fans, however, this game is not complete and should not blot the Winooski 1946 record. Winooski 4—Cathedral 7 Anti-climatic is the only word to fit the year’s final game. Again infield errors threw away a ball game upon which much depended. The loss of this game cost Winooski its third consecutive Northern League championship. — 66 — BATTING AND FIELDING AVERAGES—1946 Player and position Ab. R. H. Po. A. E. RBI. Fid. Avg. B. Avg.

STACKPOLE SCHOLARSHIP AWARD Established April 20, 1946 FIFTY DOLLARS PER YEAR Superintendent George R. Stackpole was most pleasantly surprised on April 4, 1946, by the contents of a letter, which proposed to establish a scholarship of Fifty Dollars per year. It is best explained by the following quotations from that letter: It seems almost incredible Mr. Stackpole, that my twenty-fifth anniversary as an alum- nus of Winooski High School is near at hand. A quarter of a century is indeed a long stretch in any man’s life, but believe me, that the few years which I spent there, and particularly under your guidance, had made such an im- pression on my life, that I recall those days, and my great obligation to you, much more frequently than would ordinarily be the case. As you know, I entered McGill University Law in 1921, from which I was graduated and subsequently became a member of the New Jersey Bar. I shall never forget the great debt I owe you for having made that possible, because most likely, without your haying ex- tended yourself in my behalf at that time, my “biography” would be an entirely different story. When I commune with myself, I somehow invariably reach the point when I ask myself “and where might I be today, if it were not for Mr. Stackpole?” I am anxious to find some tangible way of discharging the deep debt of gratitude, which I feel I owe you. I have decided upon a course that I think would be fitting and am now suggesting it to you for your approval and subject to any change or suggestion you may see fit to offer. It is my wish and intention to mark my twenty-fifth year of graduation by establish- ing a Scholarship. It shall be known as The George R. Stack- pole Scholarship Award.” It shall be payable annually in the amount of Fifty Dollars, concurrent with the yearly Winooski High School graduation. It shall be payable to that member of the graduating class of Winooski High School, who has, in the judgment of the faculty, shown greatest desire for learning during the High School course at Winooski High School. It shall be payable each year during my lifetime and for a period of ten years following my death. Are you agreeable to this proposal or have you any suggestions to offer which would be more closely in keeping with your own wishes or ideas? If it is necessary that the identity of the donor be given, I would prefer that he be designated as Alumnus Winooski High School 1921.” Needless to relate, Mr. Stackpole was de- lighted with the honor and respect conferred upon him by that proposition but he was more impressed by the incentive to learning, which that Fifty Dollar Award should have for the — 67 — young people, who will attend Winooski High School during the many years to come. Let- ters like the foregoing, compensate in a large way, for the untiring efforts of the real teacher, in preparing the youth of this country to lead good and useful lives. During the forty years, that Mr. Stack- pole has served the schools of this city, as Supervising-Principal and Superintendent, he has received many complimentary letters from former students, who have achieved consider- able success as physicians and surgeons, law- yers, teachers, civil and electrical engineers and those in commercial business, but none car- ried a monetary value, with the exception of the preceding quoted letter. It might be of interest for you to know, who were mmebers of the Class of 1921 and what happened after graduation: Myer Hanson—Graduated University of Vermont— For several years procurement for United States Treasury. Edith Davis—Course at University of Vermont— Taught two years—now deceased. Rosanna M. Beaudette—Bookkeeper, later became Mrs. Fred Merrill. William E.

Billups: Vice-president, Miss Winifred A. Stone: Secretary, Mr. John J. Herbert: Treas- urer, Mr. William F. Arcand. “Build for a better world,” the motto chosen for the 1946-1947 season, furnished the basis for the monthly programs. Mr. Milton Slater of radio station WCAX dsicussed Interesting Phases of Radio Work” at the September meeting. In October, the Rev. John Eastman dis- cussed “Religion in the Schools” and Super- intendent G. R. Stackpole explained the “Proposed State Education Legislation.” Health was the theme of the November meeting. Dr. John McCrea spoke on “The Cause, Diagnosis, and Prevention of Conta- gious Disease.” Songs by the high school Glee Club fur- nished the entertainment for the December meeting. In January Miss Elizabeth Atkinson led a discussion on the Vermont Children's Aid Society. The fiftieth anniversary of the founding of the National Parent-Teacher Association was observed in February in the form of a dramatization led by Mrs. Lawrence Leveillee program chairman. “Labor's Stake” in Edu- cation was the topic discussed by the Rev. Donald Howard. A question box on “Our School—Present and Future” was worthwhile. The second part of the March meeting furnished a marked contrast and struck a note of humor when Mr. Frederick Sears told of his hobby “Phre- nology.” Mr. Max Barrows, state supervisor of sec- ondary education, was the guest speaker at the April meeting. Following each meeting a social hour was enjoyed during which delicious refreshments were served by the hospitality chairman, Mrs. Newton Thompson, and her various commit- tees. Mrs. William Arcand and Mrs. John Poulin represented the local association at the state convention in Rutland. Miss Winifred Stone. Mrs. J. C. Handy and Mrs. Raymond Myers were named dele- gates to the district meeting held in Shelburne in November. The local association is most grateful to its ways and means chairman, Mr. Lyle Archam- bault, who acted as interlocutor and business manager of a minstrel show which the asso- ciation sponsored. This proved to be a big social and financial success. The officers of the association this year have accomplished much toward helping the school. A check for two hundred dollars was given to the school library. Through P.T.A. recommendations all high school stu- dents were X-rayed by the State Board of Health and the Vermont Tuberculosis Asso- ciation. Pins were purchased for all members of the Glee Club. In June 1946 the P.T.A. sponsored the athletic banquet. The association is trying to secure more health services for the students. Plans are being made to hire a school nurse and to purchase an audiometer for the school. — 72 — We, the class of 47, dedicate this page to the merchants, professional men, the P.T.A. and individuals who have advertised in this book, in order to express our appre- ciation for their help.
