One of the most important tasks which this student council has accom- plished is that of revising the constitution. At the beginning of the year the council put on an assembly for the purpose of discussing and explaining the duties and aims of a council. It has also taken charge of such important duties as selling war stamps, caring for the service flag, and keeping the honor roll up-to-date. For the first time in its history, this year the Duxbury High School Student Council became a member of the National Association of Student Councils. The purpose of this organization is to provide ideas and sug- gestions for a successful student council. They also helped the Parent Teachers' Association with a supper meet- ing, which was very successful. The Athletic Association, which is also part of the Student Council, held a sports night in April, when letters were awarded to the players.

Its June edition is this year book. The monthly copies were duplicated at the high school by the students with the assistance of Miss Collins and Mrs. McKey. Starting with the December issue, printed covers were used, which added to the attractive- ness of the magazine. Some of the features have been Mrs. Anthony's "Advice to the Love- lorn," a monthly write-up of a college, "Meet Your Teachers" interviews, and a comic strip, "Sandy the Sea Gull," drawn by "Starr Fish." Mary Richardson was replaced in February by Dorothy Randall as business manager. The year book subscription and advertising drive was held in March. It was highly successful and was followed by a record hop at which Vir- ginia Schwab and Willard Barclay were crowned Queen and King, re- spectively, of the popularity contest held in connection with the drive. At an assembly following the drive, prizes were awarded to Stanley Nightingale, who sold the most advertisements, to Marcia Eckersley and Lawrence Lovell, the runners-up, to Barbara Nathan for selling the most subscriptions, and boxes of chocolates to the ninth and twelfth grades for being one hundred per cent in subscriptions to the year book. Science Club First Row: Richard Marshall, Grace Martin, Anne Garside, Barbara O'Neil, Frances Halunen, Nancy Hazlehurst, Leo King Second Row: Barbara Nathan, Elizabeth Griswold, Mr. Gesiak, William Dunkle, John Shea, Edwin Baker, Winston Bolton The Science Club, which was limited to fifteen members from grades eight and nine, met every week under the direction of Mr. Gesiak. The following members served as officers: President William Dunkle Vice President Leo King Secretary Anne Garside Treasurer Winston Bolton During the meetings simple experiments were conducted, such as making a wet cell, analyzing coal, and stretching glass. Sometimes movies were shown. Many of the boys interested in photography did work in the dark room, and two of the girls made a relief map of Duxbury, using modeling clay.

Room 12 was always a hive of activity when each month's Partridge was ready for the assembly line. Here Editor Virginia Schwab checks the issue for errors while the rest of the staff assemble, punch, cover, and tie the pages together. Barbara can't resist a moment's pause to chuckle over a humorous item. Many students not on the staff assisted with assembling. In this picture, Richard, Lawrence, Josephine and Virginia Murphy represent the non-staff helpers.

Director, Mr. Dunkle, William Mosher, Norman Schaffer, Wil- liam Soule. William Dunkle, Virginia Glass, John Randall, Mr. Warfleld, Director On December 15, 1944 "The Ghost Train" roared into Duxbury High School, and from it descended, suit cases in hand, Marie Short and Stanley Nightingale, a couple on the verge of divorce, Virginia Schwab and Bob White, amorous newlyweds, Mary Richardson, a flustered spinster, weighed clown by a bird cage, and Larry Lovell, a nonchalant young Englishman. Richard Washburn, station master, thoroughly frightened the passengers by telling them that they would have to spend the night in a deserted station through which a ghost train was destined to pass at midnight. During the course of a hectic evening, Mrs. Warfield took the part for Dorothy Randall, who was ill, of a half-crazed, terror-stricken girl, and exclaimed that she was fated to see the ghost train. After a score of breathtaking episodes, the play drew to a climax with Bill Soule and Norman Schaffer revealed as criminals in league with the so-called nervous young lady, smuggling dope via The Ghost Train. Bill Mosher, George Damon, Jack Randall, and Larry Lovell had cleverly detected the ruse and captured the smugglers, much to the de- light of an enthusiastic audience. The realistic sound of the ghost train was accomplished with the aid of an efficient stage crew under the direction of Mr. Dunkle. Virginia Glass served as prompter. Much credit for the fine performance is due to the director, Mr. Warfield. '"And all I ask is a windy day with the white clouds flying And the blown spume and the flung spray and the seagulls crying." John Masefield Girls' Basketball First Row: Cheerleaders, Ann Peterson, Nancy Soule, Betty Hughes Second Row: Jean Barclay, Louise Marr, Josephine Peterson, Betty Mosher, Captain; Lena Parkman, Doris Parkman, Virginia Glass Third Row: Theresa Sheehan, Patricia Murphy, Coach Sewall, Betty SchafTer, Marcia Eckersley The Duxbury High School girls' basketball team this year placed sixth in the South Shore League, Scituate taking first place. This was a somewhat better record than last year and was probably due to the help given the girls by Coach Sewall. A total of three games out of fourteen were won. Doris Parkman was high scorer of the season, with Betty Mosher next in line. The list of schools played is the same as that listed under Boys' Bas- ketball. Our cheerleaders, Ann Peterson, Nancy Soule, and Betty Hughes, helped to enliven the games with their enthusiastic conducting of the cheers. Nancy Soule, '47 Boys 9 Basketball First Row: V/.

The boys' basketball squad enjoyed a rather successful season this year, when they completed their schedule with a record of nine wins against five losses to take third place in a league of eight teams. Much of the credit for this greatly improved showing over last year's team should be given Coach Sewall, who voluntarily devoted his time to help produce a winning combination. The second team also enjoyed a successful season, having a record of eleven wins against only three losses. The season's scores are as follows: Opponent Duxbury Scituate 20 24 Norwell 25 23 Pembroke 16 28 Hanover 57 15 Cohasset . 29 39 Kingston v. ... 20 27 Marshfield 40 48 Scituate 40 24 Norwell 30 46 Pembroke 28 34 Hanover 48 25 Cohasset 30 54 Kingston 34 19 Marshfield 28 27 Richard Washburn Duxbury Free Library Baseball Team The boys' baseball team this year was under the management of Mr. Sewall. Usually the boys on the team are in the high school, but this year we had a first baseman from the eighth grade, William LaFleur. The boys did not have many practices, as it was impossible for Mr. Sewall, with all his other tasks, to devote a great deal of time to this sport. The team as a whole did not play any one position. There were at least two boys to one position, so that a change could be made if necessary. The team comprised: Pitchers: Lewis Randall, Robert White, Robert Green. Catchers: Stanley Nightingale, George Damon, First base: William LaFleur, Richard Washburn. Second base: George Damon, Norman White. Short stop: Willard Barclay, Richard Washburn. Third base: Philip Delano. Outfield: Richard Schaffer, James Mobbs, LeRoy Randall, Avery Nickerson. Managers — Donald Washburn, George Taylor. Assistant Manager — Everett Dunn.

To dance, clap hands, exult, shout, leap, roll on, float on! To be a sailor of the world, bound for all ports, A ship itself (see indeed these sails I spread to the sun and air) , A swift and swelling ship full of rich words, full of joys." Walt Whitman Honor Essay HOW CAN WE HAVE A LASTING PEACE? by Lewis Randall Unless we take full advantage of our present opportunity to establish the conditions of an enduring peace, the price that is being paid in hu- man lives and material wealth will have been a total loss. First, we must know what the conditions or requirements of a peaceful world are; and second, how we can establish or create these conditions in our lifetime. Perhaps the public attitude towards these problems will have a greater effect on us, the class of '45, than anything else in our lives. We are the ones who will either benefit or suffer by the decisions of our leaders. The formation of an international organization similar to the League of Nations, but having more power, seems to be the way in which we will be able to establish peace. It may be felt that another world organization would not be any more successful now than it was after World War I. But we should have been able to profit from the mistakes that were made last time. The League of Nations had no way in which to enforce or carry out the recommendations that were made. Also, there was nothing that com- pelled a country to belong to the League. If they were dissatisfied with the way things were done, they merely dropped out. If we can correct the mistakes that were made before, we should be able to create lasting peace. An international organization will probably be sufficient to keep the peace, provided we establish a peace worth keeping. If we are unable to construct a peace that will be satisfactory to each country, it will not be a lasting peace. There should be no secret treaties or agreements between nations for special advantage. If such a situation existed, it would only tend to cause grievances and jealousy of other countries, and we would be no further ahead than we were before. The problems that arise as the result of proposing a peace plan are many. Full employment will undoubtedly be one of our basic needs. If we are to have full employment in America, we will have to have full em- ployment all over the world. If we continue to produce goods for trade, we must provide markets for these goods. If we expect to market our goods in foreign lands, the people of these lands must have employment so that they will have the purchasing power necessary to buy our goods. It is just as true of a person in some other part of the world as it is of a citizen of the United States, that, "You can't buy unless you are able to sell." The dependence of one group of persons on another for employment is not limited by national boundaries. If we are going to have customers in other countries, we must be good customers of theirs. Purchasing power raises the problem of free trade. Reciprocal or mutual trade agreements should exist with and between all nations. There should be no discrimination against any one nation. Each one should have an equal opportunity to share in the commerce of the world. Another condition of a peaceful world is that of racial democracy. We say that the only way to keep the peace is to have unity between all na- tions. If we want to have unity, we must have cooperation and under- standing between those involved. There cannot be cooperation between the countries if we are not willing to appreciate the common people of these countries regardless of their race, creed, or color. There should be no prejudice against any person, group, or race of people if we expect to even come close to our goal. Equality of opportunity is the basic principle of democracy, and we have to think of it as such on a world scale before we can have a world that is free and united. We can continue to try to solve the problems of trade, employment, education, and such that confront us. We can say that we must achieve lasting peace. But, until we decide that every person, regardless of his race, creed, or color, regardless of his ways and ideals, has as much right to live as the next fellow; until we believe in equality of opportunity for all, we will not have a world free from hate and wars, one that is free and united. Class Ode by Virginia Schwab FAREWELL, DEAR DUXBURY Tune of "Vilia" 1. Farewell, dear Duxbury, your praises we sing To classmates and teachers our tributes we bring; Our days together too quickly have passed, But treasured memories will last. 2. While our school stands mid its carpet of green, We'll always remember the joys we have seen. Friendship will linger as we depart, Cherishing thee in our hearts. 3. Farewell, dear Duxbury, we leave thee today, Bearing fond memories of thee on our way, Pleasures you've brought us. sorrow sometimes Yet ever will we be thine. 4. Loyal we stand ever friendly and true, Heads held on high, our hearts loyal to you. Thoughts of the past and the bright future too Lead us, dear Duxbury, to you. Class Prophecy by Richard Washburn and Virginia Schwab Ginny: Well, for goodness sake — Richard Washburn! What are you doing on this cruise ? Tell me all. Wash: Well, hello Ginny. I'm on my way to Europe to get some ideas for a new show. I'm the second Eddie Cantor, you know. Ginny: Still blowing your own horn, I see. Wash: Tell me, Ginny, where have you been keeping yourself all these long years, and what brings you on this trip? Ginny: Well, right now I'm on my way to Paris to help model the latest fashions. Some fun! Wash: I should say so. Tell me — have you heard anything about our fellow classmates? Ginny: You can't imagine whom I saw in New York when I went to the tourist agency for my tickets. Wash: Anybody I know? Ginny: Dorothy Randall — you remember Dot? Wash: Of course, who could forget Dot? What is she doing for excite- ment? Ginny: She is working at the agency, helping people with poor feeble minds like mine to plan their trips abroad. Wash: For heaven's sake! Say, Ginny, guess whom I just bumped into? Ginny: Goodness only knows. Who? Wash: N. J. Schaffer in person. He is a big shot oil magnate now, you know. Ginny: What's he doing on board? Wash: Well, you know Norm was the boy with big ideas. He has been beating the skins in the orchestra on board, and is now on his way to Paris to sell some of the paintings he did in his spare time. Ginny: Well, I see he hasn't forgotten his good old days at D. H. S. when he was our one and only drummer and also an excellent artist. Wash: I should say so. (Picks up newspaper) Say, Ginny, get a load of this. Ginny: What? Wash: "Pleasure Town, U. S. A., June 14, 1955. It was announced today by the Associated Press that James Arthur Mobbs, prominent Middle West business man, has purchased outright the airport of Elmer Fudd in Fuddville, U. S. A. When interviewed on the sub- ject, Mr. Mobbs confirmed the statement and stated that he hasn't forgotten his old home town of Duxbury, Mass., and will pitch in and give Selectman Delano of that town a lift on the mail route. Ginny: Well, I see J. J. got his wish to own an airport. That reminds me — did Norm tell you whose orchestra is playing on board? Wash: He must have forgotten it. He told me that he played the drums once in a while, but he neglected to tell me whose band he played in Ginny: The band on board is none other than Bing Damon's. Wash: Good grief — I never would have imagined Bing's being an orches- tra leader. What's the name of the band? Ginny: Porky's Corny Eingadeers — Whew! What a mouthful! Wash: I read about his being elected President of the Hollywood Bache- lor's Club, but I never thought he was a band leader too. I guess I'll have to look him up before we dock, but if I don't see him. I'll certainly hear him. Ginny: Have you heard from any of the rest of our classmates? Wash: Yes, I understand Bill Mosher is a big shot now. Ginny: You don't say! What's he doing for excitement? Wash: Well, you know that old car of his? Ginny: You mean that old truck he fixed up into a chassis — I mean, that old chassis he fixed up into a truck. Wash: That gave him a start — he now owns a chain of garages on the East Coast, a fleet of planes on the West Coast, and is sole owner of three taxi cab companies in the South. And on top of all this, he lives in Switzerland, where he controls his businesses by re- mote control. Ginny: He certainly has come up in the world. I guess raking leaves for Tony Barriault started him on his career, don't you? Wash: Yes, I guess it did. Ginny: Say, Washie, you remember Larry Lovell, our class president? Wash: Sure, I remember Larry. What about him? Ginny: He is now president of the steamship lines on which we are sail- ing. He's just been offered $50,000 for his antique jaloppy he bought while at D. H. S. It's wanted for the French Exposition of 1960. Wash: I knew that Larry would be president of something. He was pres- ident of just about everything at good old D. H. S. But $50,000 for that old jaloppy! Whew! Ginny: Lewie Randall is also on board. He is on his way to Europe to try to locate some talent for his moving picture business. He owns the Flashy Eyeful Pictures, Inc., you know. Wash: Well, good for Lewie. That reminds me of Stanley Nightingale. You remember Stan? Ginny: Why, of course, he was the Casanova of the class. Tell me, what's Stan been doing all these long years. Wash: I understand that he is a famous Hollywood actor. Oh, I almost forgot — Bob White is star vocalist for Bing's Corny Bingadeers. It won't be long before all the bobby-socks will be swooning over Droolatra White. I almost forgot to tell you Marie Short is on board. She's on her way to Paris to buy clothes for her swank New York shoppe. Maybe you'll model some for her. Ginny: Maybe I will. Who knows? Wash: Oh, guess whom I bumped into a little while ago — Bill Soule. Ginny: Really? What has he been doing lately? Wash: Well, believe it or not, Bill's on a pleasure trip here. He said that he is trying to escape the turmoil of his motorcycle business. Ginny: Say, I read something about a new motorcycle named "Soulemo- bile," or something like that. Wash: Yes, that's Bill's latest invention. It's streamlined for speed or pleasure. Ginny: Washie, doesn't it seem to you that we have neglected someone? Wash: Why, of course. We almost forgot John Randall — you remember Johnny? Ginny: Why, of course. Wash: He is now working in New York — cooking hard-boiled eggs in a soft-boiled egg factory. Ginny: Wouldn't that boil you over! Wash: It most certainly would. Well, Ginny, I guess our classmates didn't do so badly after all. Ginny: No, and I hope that they continue to do well in the future. Let's have the gang get together on board before we dock. Wash: That's a good idea. So long for now, and I'll see what I can do about getting the crowd together. Class History by William Soule and Dorothy Randall September 8, 1941 was a great day for the Class of '45, who were to embark on the good ship Class of '45 of D. H. S. Roll call was taken, and as there were no crew members, we set sail on the Freshmen Sea. Our ship's officers for that year were as follows: President Lewis Randall Vice President Lawrence Lovell Secretary ... Robert White Treasurer George Damon Our activities for that year were very limited because of conditions brought on by the war. The first year was spent mostly learning rules and regulations of D. H. S. and preparing ourselves for the voyages that were to come. In June of 1942 the good ship Class of '45 put into Duxbury harbor. During the summer months, while the crew were on leave, the ship was put into shape from stem to stern. After the leave was over, last call was given to all those who wanted to sail the Sophomore Ocean. With last year's crew intact and two new members, Edward Hinckley and Francis Pictan of Boston, we weighed anchor on schedule. Realizing that the ship would be our home for the next nine months, we spent the first day getting acquainted with our new quarters and ob- taining equipment for our voyage. Our ship's captain, Mr. Arthur Lee Homan, called a meeting to vote for officers for the ensuing year. The following people were elected: President Lawrence Lovell Vice President Richard Washburn Secretary Lewis Randall Treasurer Janice Dyer We did not have any dance or party that year because of more im- portant wartime activities. About half-way across the ocean, a steamer headed for Boston came along-side. Immediately Edward Hinckley and Francis Pictan said that they were leaving us to return to their home town to work. After two more weeks of sailing, Richard Olsen and Robert Chandler left us to go aboard ships of the U. S. Navy. We had many storms on the Sophomore Ocean, but we all came through with flying colors by winning our own individual battles. We were now ready to sail on the Junior Sea, but first we were given liberty for two months. It was the fifth day of September, 1943, when we all boarded the good ship Class of '45 and set sail on the Junior Sea. In checking over our crew, we found we had a new shipmate, Virginia Schwab. She was transferred from the ship "Weymouth" to the "Dux- bury" to continue her smooth sailing through high school. As soon as we had found our quarters and acquired our "sea legs," our captain, Miss Beals, advised us to select good ship's officers if we were to continue safely on our course. The crew selected the following officers: We made plans for a class dance May 12, but unfortunately we had to call it off. I wonder if it was because some of us didn't know the kind of dancing that we call "Jitterbug" today, or did the rough weather cause us to lose our "sea legs"? Many of the boys of our crew went out for the most outstanding sport known to us in Duxbury — basketball. The team consisted of the following junior boys: "Bill" Mosher, "Bob" White, "Dick" Washburn," "Larry" Lovell, and "Lewey" Randall. We sailed on, and before we knew it, it was time for the seniors to disembark at the next port, which meant a senior reception to be held on the ship's deck June 17. Everyone lent a helping hand, and the seniors were very proud of us. As we walked solemnly to the bulletin board, we found that our last order had been the senior reception. We were now on leave for two months. We went home to our parents and friends once more, realizing that we had only one more year to sail on our own little ship. We knew when we came back there would be only twelve of us to continue our sail together. Soon our leave was up and we found ourselves at the senior pier, ready to sail on for our last trip. We found old shipmates gone and new ones about to sail on with us. Among our missing was Betty Muirhead. That left only three girls, Marie Short, Dorothy Randall, and Virginia Schwab. With happy and eager faces we started our senior voyage at once. As we walked along the deck, we found Mrs. Eleanor McKey at the helm to help us keep our sailing as smooth as ever. President Vice President Lawrence Lovell Richard Washburn Dorothy Randall George Damon Secretary Treasurer Everyone must have liked our ship's officers during the junior trip, for the same officers were elected. President Vice President Lawrence Lovell Richard Washburn Dorothy Randall . . George Damon Secretary Treasurer It wasn't long after the officers had been elected that they noticed walking down the main deck a new passenger aboard their ship. Mary Richardson had been transferred from the "Charlestown, N. H." to the "Duxbury" in hopes of continuing her sail through high school. Stanley Nightingale, a former passenger, had also returned to the ship. The members of our crew again participated in the popular sport basketball, having a successful season. For many nights during November and December everyone gave up precious evenings to practice the senior class play, "The Ghost Train," under the direction of Mr. Robert Warfield. Mr. William Dunkle man- aged the sound effects, and we appreciated very much the work he did. It was the fifteenth of December that the "Ghost Train" stopped at Duxbury, and what a relief! Oh yes, something happened at one of the rehearsals. Dorothy Randall had to report below deck for "Sick Call." We turned our sail and went to Mrs. Warfield to take Dorothy's part, so that the "Ghost Train" could continue to its destination. Before we knew it, it was time to order our senior caps and gowns and have our pictures taken for our year book. When Mary Richardson boarded our ship in October, all of us thought that she would continue her sail with us, but in March she asked for a transfer back to her own ship "The Charlestown, N. H." Our crew keeps getting smaller. Norman Schaffer left us in March to board a larger ship belonging to Uncle Sam's Navy. We want to wish him oceans of luck. He is not the only one, because "Bill" Mosher did like- wise. We now have twelve to carry on, but we hope that all of those that have left will always remember the good ship Class of '45 from the Dux- bury High School. Home is the place where peace and comfort Make their way to all; Home is the place where joy resounds From each and every wall. Home is the place where mother's hand Comforts the weary and sad; Home is the place that echoes with The shouts of a merry lad. Home is the place where mirth reigns king. Where children's happy voices sing. Home is the place where all is blessed. Home is the castle of happiness. Home Nancy Soule '47 Class Will by George Damon and Robert White WE. the Class of 1945 of Duxbury High School, of the Common- wealth of Massachusetts, being of sound mind and body (we think) do make, publish, and declare that this is our last will and testament. We bequeath our most prized possessions to the following: Richard Washburn, who dashed off his shorthand in five minutes, leaves this ability to Frances Walker, who should profit by it. Robert White, our dashing young Romeo, bequeaths his charm to any blushing and bashful backwoods boy in the sophomore class. James Mobbs leaves his quietness to Betty Schaffer. the noisy junior. With Jay's quietness Betty should be a little easier on the teaching staff next year. Virginia Schwab leaves a small portion of her pep and inclination for mis- chief to Irene Damon and Virginia Glass. We know they don't need either, but you remember the old saying, "To him that hath shall be given." Stanley Nightingale leaves his brain, preserved in alcohol, to be kept in Mrs. Suitor's laboratory for the juniors to study in their senior year. William Mosher leaves his record for being tardy to his sister Betty, who won't find it difficult to break it. Marie Short, whose temper gets the best of her at various times, bequeaths said temper to Dot Black, who never seems to get riled. Lawrence Lovell leaves to pick up more girls in his old Ford. Lewis Randall leaves his extra gray matter to Bob Green and we hope that Bob will attain Lewis' record as class genius. Dorothy Randall leaves her typing and letter writing ability to any soph- omore girl who wants it. With Dot's ability the sophomore should really get somewhere, especially with her servicemen's correspondence. John Randall, the alibi artist, leaves his abilities to George Taylor, who should be able to profit by them. Tall, lanky Norman Schaffer leaves a foot and a half to Willard Barclay, which Norman will never miss, and which should enable "Bare" to throw the ball down through the basket instead of up and then down. William Soule leaves his mechanical ability to Dick Schaffer. With Bill's ability Dick should be able to repair his so-called car. George Damon leaves his low-slung weight to Bill Dunkle. With George's weight Bill may be able to cast a shadow. To Mr. Scott, our principal, we leave the classes to come, hoping that each will be better than the last. To Miss Collins we leave a chauffer to drive to the Post Office to get war stamps each week. To Mrs. Suitor we leave a larger room for her after school classes. To Mr. Sewall we leave the memory of a perfect history class. We know he will never find our equal. To Miss Downey we leave an automatic foot to keep the straggling lines in step going to and from assemblies. To Mr. Warfield the Class of '45 leaves a private office for his use. In this he may store the innumerable papers his students write. To Mrs. McKey we leave a motor scooter on which she may get more speed going up and down the corridors on foot. It also ought to save a little shoe leather. To Mr. Dunkle we leave a new set of springs for his car. Those basket- ball trips with ten or fifteen players were very hard on them. With these new springs he should be ready for more trips next year. To Mr. Gesiak we leave a microphone so that he will bs able to out-talk his history class. If this fails, we leave a sum of money to provide gags for them. On this fourteenth day of June in the year of our Lord one thousand nine hundred and forty-five, we, the Class of 1945, do sign, seal and declare in the presence of witnesses, who at our request have subscribed their names, that this is our last will and testament. The Class of 1945 George Damon Robert White Attorney s-at-law Witnesses: General Patton General MacArthur General Eisenhower "Often I think of the beautiful town That is seated by the sea; Often in thought go up and down The pleasant streets of that dear old town, And my youth comes back to me. And the verse of a Lapland song Is haunting my memory still; 'A boy's will is the wind's will, And the thought of youth are long, long thoughts' ." Henry Wadsworth Longfellow Memories In a little while twelve boys and girls will leave Duxbury High School, never to return again except for visits. Most of these pupils have had the whole or the biggest part of their education in Duxbury. From these years will come many pleasant memories that the passing of time will make only more precious. I doubt if many remember very much about their first eight years of school, even though the first day at school is a vivid memory. But until a person has entered high school, the fun of education hasn't even started. When the proud little class of '45 entered the ninth grade room for a stay of forty or so weeks, they had great plans for their high school years. All the dances and parties they were going to have! Of these only a few materialized, but these few will linger long in the memories of our de- parting class. There were, of course, basketball games, which were a lot of fun for the teams and spectators. Remember those rides to and from games? The so-called singing was enough to make even Frank Sinatra seem good. In 1944 the juniors (now our graduating class) gave a splendid re- ception for their departing seniors. For weeks in advance they were plan- ning their decorations and refreshments, and the girls were discussing gowns, hair-do's and evening slippers. And when that big night came, everyone was decked out in his best finery, all ready for a grand time. They weren't to be disappointed. Remember that beautiful grand march that they slaved over for many days and weeks before? It was certainly worth all the effort put into it. At the beginning of their senior year they started to plan for the senior class play, the best for many a year. I know that not only the cast, but even the crew whose fun consisted in making the train whistle and crash at the right time, will never forget the rehearsals and the excite- ment of the final performance. And now that graduation time has arrived, there is, of course, the thrill of getting a diploma, delivering the class gifts and speeches, and having the reception planned and given in their honor. Memories of these will be vivid indeed. But perhaps the most precious memories of all will be the friendships made in school. Years from now, the friends who shared these exper- iences with them will seem closer than ever. The ties made in high school can never be broken. Yes, seniors, your high school career is finished, but in your memories it will live forever. Irene Damon '46 To the Juniors What say there, you who will be seniors? This year you have had more fun and notoriety than many a junior class. Your basketball players and your jitterbugs top the list. Your class spirit bubbles over, and so do you when you should be boning away. That's just one of the things we want to talk about. A school is "made" or spoiled by the pupils who attend it. That we know. But aside from spirit and sportsmanship there is the main purpose we all have in attending school — education. That is, without doubt, the most essential thing in future living. How can you be as smooth as your post war world if you aren't sent through something that will buff off the rough corners? The broader your understanding of human nature and world affairs the more likely you are to succeed in your chosen voca- tion or career. The step from junior to senior is more than the passage of a summer vacation. It is one of the most serious changes in an adolescent's life, particularly in these days when becoming a citizen means that we are not only citizens of our own great country but potential citizens of a narrow- ing world. The seniors are usually aloof and extraordinarily silent on matters even of little importance, for they are just beginning to realize that tomorrow is theirs and perhaps the result of their actions will alter their lives. It is in school that we must learn to apply common sense to any situation and evaluate people, incidents and material goods in comparison with our own education. Next year you juniors will head the student government of your school. There may in the future be a statesman or politician among you who may have got his taste for the legislative through that student body. School is the place to test out your ability to adapt yourself to changes, to other people's wants and plans, and to prepare yourself for the ventures into which you will enter when free from the ties of compulsory education. But remember, education never stops. That is, it never stops broad- ening the way for those who want it. And who doesn't? So — let's make school the proving ground of our capacities and use those capacities to build in the future a better world.
