The Class History
One balmy June morning in 1943 (at least, it wasn't raining) the great class
of '47 filed through the corridors of Sanford High. We were a bewildered little
group of “Ivory Clean” darlings; but. of course, through the aid of the helpful
seniors, who were more than anxious to tell us that 202 was in the basement, we
finally made the rounds to our first classes.
My, but we thought we were pretty important that year. Why, we were eighth
graders and about to graduate. That graduation took place on June 17, and those
who won honors were Robert Blake, who won the D. A. R. Medal at the Emerson;
Marjorie Carpenter, who got the same award at the Hamlin; Roger Waterhouse
and Hilda Powers, who won the improvement awards at the Emerson; Vinton
Ridley and Mary Green, who won the same awards at the Hamlin; and Harland
Eastman, who won the essay contest for l>oth schools.
Fall soon came, and we were really and truly high schoolers. The seniors
were nicer to us than we had a right to ex|>ect, for we must have made a sad
looking spectacle. On the eve of September 22 they treated us to a party in the
Legion Hall, where we had the chance to meet our senior brothers and sisters.
Some lucky boys got girls for senior sisters, but we weren’t all that lucky. By
the time we had our Freshman Reception, which was on October 1. we all felt
pretty much at home. Luckily for us there was no freshman razzing, but the
cars kept rolling, didn’t they, boys?
Early in the fall, we held an election of officers, in which the following were
elected: Robert Blake, president; Roger Brown, vice-president; Evelyn Ashworth,
secretary; and Thomas Randall, treasurer. Jean Ross and Merle Spring were
chosen to serve on the Student Council. Thomas Randall was elected later in
the year to take the place of Merle Spring. Those who were chosen to be S. A. A.
representatives were Doris Fraser, Marie Johnson. Leatrice Orill. and Vivian
Mavrakos.
Charlie Howe and Roger Chadbourne were out for football our freshman year.
Charlie was a tackle and Chaddie was a guard.
The Red and H'hite staff presented an original two act play. II'ark Behind the
Headlines, in the middle of the year; and one freshman boy. Jamal d'Garcie. was
in the cast. Our freshman girls on the staff, Loraine Bedard. Beatrice Benoit.
Priscilla Pickett. Hilda Powers, Jean Ross, Constance Wiley, and Arlene Wilson,
served as ushers.
On Lincoln’s birthday an impressive program was presented to the student
body over the loud speaking system in which several up|>erclassmen took part.
PAGE 44
FKR fetSTOP
On the basketball team, that year, from our freshman class were Rol>ert Blake
and Charlie Howe.
April 28 was the night of the school play, and Miss Vallely’s prodigies pre-
sented the three act play, Ever Since Eve. No one from our class was in it. but
it was good just the same.
In our freshman social on May 12, the "Strawberry Blond" was melodiously
rendered by the barber shop quartet, composed of James Sharpe. Fiske Perkins.
Thomas Randall, and Robert Blake. In keeping with the “Gay Nineties” theme.
a "horse o]>era” was really horsed up by Thomas Randall, James Sharpe, Lowell
Goodwin, and Robert Blake. To end the gala affair. \ ivian Mavrakos sang
"Strolling Through the Park One Day.” Helping to make this social a success
were Mrs. Earle and Miss Mallinson, our freshman class advisors.
We started our sophomore year with a bang—al least, most of us made the
school house door. For the first time in our long history, the English teachers
didn’t ask us to write on what we had done during our long, restful, summer
vacation.
Seven happy, smiling, new teachers greeted us that morning. They couldn’t
have known what they were in for. Mr. Nunan and Miss Wood took over the
physical education department, Mr. Clarke went into the mathematics and science
departments. Miss Woods went into the English department. Miss O'Hara and
Mr. Thompson went into the commercial department, and Mr. Pascucci went
into the shop department.
Our election of officers soon came up and the following were elected: Thomas
Randall, president; Everett Brown, vice-president; Luc Lizotte, secretary; and
Vinton Ridley, treasurer. Evelyn Ashworth and Charles Howe were elected to
the Student Council.
The Minute Man Flag flew all year over our school. This fact meant we were
all doing a grand job of buying war stamps. Later in the year we really showed
what we were capable of doing by selling over 49.000 dollars’ worth of bonds in
the Seventh Bond Drive. This feat certainly merits credit.
Constance W iley and Arlene Wilson were elected business managers on the
Red and ll’hite that year. Reporters from our class were Nancy Allen. Beatrice
Benoit, lune Brook. Joan Clark, Jamal d’Garcie. Shirley Gowen. Marie Johnson.
Hilda Powers, Jean Ross, and Emma Yuill.
The presidential election of 1944 caused a great deal of excitement in the
school, for we had a miniature election of our own. It was definitely a Demo-
cratic landslide with an electoral vote of fifty-four to five in favor of Roosevelt
although the popular vote was rather dose, three hundred and seventeen to two
hundred and seventy-six.
Our class mate. Albert Plamondon, made himself the star of the track team.
which was organized in our sophomore year.
One of the biggest things in our school history was the originating of the An-
nual Winter Carnival. Snow sculpturing and winter sports events were the out-
of-doors activities enjoyed at that first carnival. The Girls’ Hi-Y put on a very
successful bazaar in which there were fortune tellers, refreshment stands, fish
bowls, and numerous other kinds of booths. In an entertainment near the close
of the evening. Mr. Hayward gave one of his hilarious impersonations which
left us all in stitches. Then came the big event of the carnival, the ball. The
queen. Madeline Harding, was crowned in a very beautiful ceremony, and her
attendant from our class was Mary Richards.
PAGE 45
The three act play. Accidents H'ill Happen, was presented on February 15.
under the direction of Miss Woods. In the play from our class were Constance
Wiley, Roger Chadboume, and Everett Brown.
President Roosevelt's death caused a great deal of sadness in the school. A
special program was given in honor of him, which included the Lord’s Prayer
said by the whole school and an original jx)em by Mr. Hayward in tribute to the
late president.
The high school band was scheduled to give a pop concert on the next eve
after Roosevelt’s death, but it was postponed to May 10, the night of the freak
spring blizzard. The band played many fine numbers under the direction of
W illiam Hayden. Many solos were also given, including one by Harland East-
man from our class.
It seems that our sophomore year was a year of firsts, for the Annual Rainbow
Room Minstrels were started that year. Those from our class taking part were
W inston Brooks, June Brook, Shirley Gowen, Rosemary Hutchens, Nancy Allen,
and Richard Legere.
On the eve of St. Patrick's Day, all the Katies and Mikes of Sanford High
attended the gala sophomore social.
Near the end of the school year, the war in Euro|>e was won; ami instead of
the riotous celebrating that went on in so many places, the students of Sanford
High observed that most memorable of occasions in a very (lignified and serious
manner. We all listened to President Truman's and Prime Minister Church Il’s
Messages over the loud speaking system. At the end of the school day a mass
assembly was held at the town hall with several speakers on the program. The
patriotic songs played by the band left a sad effect on many of us, who thought
of our late leader, President Roosevelt, and so many thousands of boys who
could not be with us to share the joy of our nation.
When we returned in the fall of our junior year, we were greeted by five new
faculty members. Mr. Gates went into the English and history departments
assuming the year book advisory; Mr. Casavant became head of the French de-
partment; Miss Donovan went into the commercial department; Mr. Gorrie
went into the shop department; and Mr. Partridge, a former science teacher
here, became the first full-time guidance director in the history of our school
system.
Election of officers soon came up. and the following were elected : Merle Spring.
president; Thomas Randall, vice-president; Evelyn Ashworth, secretary; and
Rita Brocato, treasurer. On the student council Charles Howe was elected treas-
urer, and the other members elected were Fiske Perkins, Nancy Allen. June
Brook, and Priscilla Pickett to fill the regular yearly vacancies and the vacan-
cies left by Jean Ross and Thomas Randall, both resigned.
Out for football were Robert Blake. Everett Brown. Charles Howe. Luc Lizotte.
and Leslie Beaulieu, all of whom received their letters.
Several of our classmates were elected to office on the Red and ll'/iite. Jean
Ross was originally elected to the office of managing editor; but since she left
to enter Oak Grove, a private school, Emma Yuill was elected to take her place.
Constance W iley was made staff reporter, Joan Clark was elected exchange
editor, Hilda Powers was elected art editor, and Arlene Wilson was elected
business manager. Beatrice Benoit and June Brook served as editorial assistants.
On the basketball team were Robert Blake, Vinton Ridley. Charles Howe,
Thomas Randall, and Merle Spring.
PAGE 46
On Friday, January 19. the greatest social ever presented by a class in Sanford
High School, took place at the Town Hall. Pierre's (Merle Spring) "Cafe de
Sainte Ford” was the scene of this hilarious extravaganza. Finding himself
without an entertainment. Pierre had various stars from the patrons do specialty
numbers. Those famous personages were Miss Langford (Vivian Mavrakos),
“Dull and Sharp" (Everett Brown and lames Sharpe), Hazel Scott (Helen
Mathews), “Corny” (Earl Williams), accordion solo (Jacqueline Nason), and
Pierre himself. The finale was a masterpiece of beauty, skill, and art. Five of
the most beautiful and most shapely bundles of females ever to come from
Hawaii (Harland Eastman. Earl Williams. Frederick Stritch, James Sharpe, and
Everett Brown) did a dance that would make a burlesque queen’s eyes pop.
To open the second annual winter carnival, the three act play, IT hat a Life,
was presented by a large group of students. The three leading men’s roles were
taken by Roger Chadbourne, Harland Eastman, and Merle Spring. Everett
Brown and Earl Williams had supporting roles. Joan Clark was prompter.
Mary Richards and Donald Goodrich had charge of properties.
The G. A. A. sponsored the bazaar the next night after the play. An enter-
tainment was given in wlrch the girls from Hawaii made a return appearance.
The following eve the carnival ball took place and our attendant to the queen
was Grace Morgan.
After a lapse of several years, Sanford High again took part in the one act
play contests held in the state. Miss Woods, the dramatics director chose “No
Greater Love” in which Merle Spring of our class took part. Donald Goodrich
was in charge of properties, and Joan Clark was prompter. We won the contest
for district eleven, but lost to Kennebunk in the semi-finals.
The Club ’47 was originated for girls of our class, which grew in leaps and
bounds. June Brook was elected its first president.
Charles Howe, Robert Blake. Luc Lizotte. Leslie Beaulieu. Raymond Roussin,
and Harold Randall were out for baseball in the spring.
A Summer Fantasy was the theme chosen for our Junior Promenade, which
took place on June 20. Carl Broggi’s orchestra furnished the music. The various
planning heads were Harland Eastman, financial manager; Jacqueline Nason.
advertising; Eunice Gagne, refreshments; decoration and theme, Everett Brown;
programs. Mary Green; ushers, Bertha Nason; and invitations, Beatrice Benoit.
Miss Vallely came back to us our senior year after being out for two and a half
years. Mr. Hayward left at the end of our junior year to become the principal
of Fitchburg High; and his successor was Mr. Page, formerly the principal of
Kennebunk High. Other new members on the faculty were Mr. Al vino, our new
coach for football, who went into the science department; Miss MacNeill and
Mr. Towle, who went into the commercial and English departments respectively
and became the advisors for the Red and H'hitc; Miss Tondreau, who took over
the French department; and Miss Gillings, who took over Mrs. Reando's place
in the office as school secretary.
Under Mr. Al vino’s leadership the football team made a great showing on the
gridiron. In the first night game in the high school’s history we defeated Thorn-
ton for the first time in seventeen years. This game will undoubtedly become a
legend at Sanford High for being one of the most bitterly fought and most excit-
ing games in our history. Letter men were Leslie Beaulieu. Everett Brown,
Merle Spring, his first year on the team, Co-captain Lizotte, Co-captain Howe,
Raymond Simpson, and Robert Blake. Also John Lucey was out for the team.
Norman Caniire was manager, and Roger Chadbourne was assistant-manager.
PAGE 47
m racr/r r
The senior cheerleaders supporting the games were Arlene Wilson, Vivian
Mavrakos, and Emma Yuill.
Constance W iley was elected editor-in-chief on the Red and II 'hite; and her
assistant, the managing editor, was Arlene W ilson. Beatrice Benoit was elected
literary editor, Hilda Powers was re-elected art editor, Emma Yuill was elected
girls’ athletic editor, and Carlton Saw ver, serving his first year on the Red and
White, was made an editorial assistant.
All four of the class officers, which were elected in the fall, had served terms
in their offices before. They were Merle Spring, president for the second time;
Everett Brown, vice-president for the second time; Evelyn Ashworth, secretary
for the third time; and Rita Brocato, treasurer for the second time. The Stu-
dent Council additions were Earl Williams. Joan Clark, and Shirley Gowen.
W e treated the Freshmen to a reception at the Town Hall on Friday. October
4, which was the crowning event of the freshman razzing week. Rides were
enjoyed by nearly all the freshman boys. Bless their little hearts!
The Girls’ Hi-Y was re-organized under the leadership of Miss Tondreau and
Miss Donovan, and Marjorie Carpenter was elected president. Also from our
class were Rita Brocato, secretary, and Nancy Allen. Evelyn Ashworth. Joan
Clark. Shirley Gowen, Vivian Mavrakos, Marie Johnson. Geraldine Morrill,
Bertha Nason. Hilda Powers, and Emma Yuill.
We entered the W orld Order Essay Contest held throughout the state. The
winners of the local contest were Harland Eastman ami Geraldine Morn'll. Their
essays were judged with other winning essays in the county contest and were
again the winning compositions. Geraldine Morrill had the honor of being the
winner for girls in the district contest and read her essay over the radio.
The editorial staff of the Distaff was elected early in the fall, and Frederick
Stritch was elected editor-in-chief. Earl Williams was elected assistant editor.
These two appointed the other editors.
Merle Spring. Harland Eastman. Jack Gould. Emma Yuill, Constance W iley,
and Marjorie Carpenter were elected by the class to try for the pepsi-cola exams,
which were given in the spring. Jack Gould became one of the semi-finalists,
having one of the highest scores on the exam in the state. W’e certainly wish
him luck in the final contest.
A chess club was organized in the fall, largely through the work of Norman
Camire. It grew in numbers rapidly until it now has forty-four members. Mr.
Clarke is the faculty advisor for this organization. From our class among its
members are Norman Camire, Harland Eastman. Roger Chadbourne, Arthur
Abbott, and John Lucey.
There was no entertainment at the senior social, but a good time was enjoyed
by all. Prizes were given for dancing to Mr. and Mrs. Clarke and Vivian Mav-
rakos and her escort. All kinds of refreshments were sold.
Mr. Firth took over the band in the fall of the year, and he has been doing a
grand job of conducting it. He set forth a campaign for the purchasing of new
uniforms, and two highly successful concerts were presented to aid this fund.
The campaign was a big success, and the band got its uniforms. W hat a showing
our hand is going to make at the music festivals in the spring with its new red
and white uniforms!
Junior Miss. our school play, was a huge success with Miss Vallely directing it.
Because of popular demand it was repeated six weeks later. Miss W oods aided
in the directing; and after her resignation went into effect, Mr. Turcotte, who
PAGE IS
replaced her, took over the job as assistant. The two leading men. Harland
Eastman and Merle Spring ami a leading lady, Vivian Mavrakos, were from our
class. Roger Chadbourne and Evelyn Ashworth did outstanding pieces of work
in their supporting roles. Joan Clark and Nancy Allen were prompters.
Because of the lack of snow, the out-of-doors sports had to be cancelled. On
the day scheduled for the bazaar it snowed so hard that the school office had the
blessed no-school-whistle blown, so we all had a holiday—shoveling snow. The
bazaar was postponed for three weeks. Mary Richards was elected queen by the
whole school, and Shirley Gowen, for having the honor of being the next-to-the-
highest scorer in the balloting, was the senior class attendant. Mary was
crowned in a very beautiful ceremony on February 22.
Robert Blake, a big point getter, and Raymond Simpson, a lightning player,
were on the basketball team.
Three from our class entered the American Legion Oratorical Contest, which
was held on March 7. They were Harland Eastman. Roger Chadbourne, and
Emma Yuill. Harland Eastman won the local and the county contests and he
will comjiete in the state finals on March 29.
We are nearly through our years at Sanford High, but none of us will ever
forget them. We have had a lot of fun working together and have put through
some mighty tine projects and entertainments. We have never lacked the spirit
of sportsmanship and have been go-getters in everything that has been started.
With this same spirit we are looking to the future, knowing not what it has in
store for us. but feeling sure that in the end ours will l»e—SUCCESS !

Cheerleaders
One of the outstanding features of Sanford High’s Athletic contests was the
remarkable effectiveness of the seven vivacious cheerleaders. Not only did they
keep the student spirit at a high pitch during all games, but it was their respon-
sibility to arrange rallies before each game besides two special super-rallies at
Goodall park. These rallies consisted of torchlight parades, bonfires, cheers, and
speakers from lx>th the faculty and townspeople.
Another effective morale builder was their decorating of the school halls before
every game.
The girls of this group were Vivian Mavrakos, head cheerleader, Emma Yuill,
Arlene Wilson, Mary Elizabeth Pickles, Joyce McFarland. Betty Cooper, and
Claire Arsenault. The first three mentioned will be lost by graduation.

Football
In their first start of the 0)46 season, Sanford High’s football crew, under
the new leadership of Coach Alvino, threw a scare into the Biddeford fans by
refusing to be smothered by St. Louis’ power as the. finally went down to a not
to-be-ashamed-of 14 to 7 setback.
St. Louis, a four touchdown favorite over the Redskin;, found that the game
wasn’t going to be a pushover when, in the first five ni trites of play, they re-
covered a Sanford fumble on the seven yard line, only to lose the ball on downs
as the Sanford line drove the Saints back for hiss after loss.
The Redskins scored the first touchdown of the game after Spring recovered a
fumble on the St. Louis 30. A pass from Caramihalis t > Brown clicked for
twenty yards, Blake picked up eight more, and Caramihalis hit paydirt on . a
quarterback sneak. A pass from Caramihalis to Brown tallied the extra point,
giving Sanford a 7-0 lead at the half.
St. Louis tied the score early in the third quarter on a pass from Loranger,
the St. Louis standout, to Regis. An offside penalty against Sanford gave the
Saints a second chance for the extra point which they made good, They scored
their final touchdown late in the fourth canto. After Savage had gotten off one
of several beautiful punts from the Redskins’ end zone to their own 39, Loranger,
Collette, and Cote combined in a series of passing, line-plunging, and end skirt-
ing plays to put across the game winning tally. The extra point was rushed by
Loranger.
♦ ♦ ♦ *
Hitting hard at the start of the game, but easing up as their victory margin
increased, Sanford High easily overpowered a game St. Ignatius team at Goodall
Park in their second battle of the season, by the lopsided score of 33 to 7.
St. Ignatius took the opening kickoff and chalked up one of their two first
downs of the fray, thanks to an offsides penalty against the Redskins. But two
plays later, the Saints were forced to punt, and Gerry brought the ball back to
the Sanford 38 where their first touchdown drive started. Blake shone in the
first attack behind good blocking and chalked up gains of 24. 26. and 15 yards to
hit paydirt. Simpson rushed the extra point.
Simpson, Caramihalis, and Savage were the keys in Sanford’s second drive.
A Savage to Simpson pass was good for 24 yards to the St. Ignatius 14, and on
the next play, Savage cut off right tackle through a broken field for the score.
The conversion failed.
Blake was almost the whole show in the third attack, reeling off a 13 yard gain
ami one of three yards in succession. Next he tossed a pass to W alsh which was
called complete, due to interference on the Saints' 25. A 15 yard penalty put the
ball on the to, and on the next play, Blake was across. He missed an attempted
drop kick for the point. Soon after the next kickoff, Caramihalis intercepted a
pass on the 48. Sweeney picked up 16 and then scored from the twelve.
Running plays by Blake and Simpson, and then a pass from Blake to Walsh
who scored, accounted for the fifth tally.
St. Ignatius’ only score came against the fourth team on the final play of the
game.
♦ ♦ ♦ ♦
The night of October 13. 1946. is one that will long be remembered by the towns-
people and students of Sanford because the Maroon and Gold of Thornton
Academy that night, at last, went down to defeat before a Sanford High School

football team for the first time since 1929, anyway, and perhaps longer, since no
records are available before that time. The game was a thriller from start to
finish and the fans were on their feet ninety percent of the time to get a better
view of the hard-fought battle between the two traditional rivals.
Time and again throughout the game. Sanford drove deep into enemy territory.
only to be forced to give up the ball on downs, and almost as many times, the
Thornton eleven seemed on the verge of plowing through the Redskin line to-
ward victory. Late in the fourth quarter, Thornton drove relentlessly downfield
toward the Sanford goal by means of line plunge after plunge. Things looked
bad for Sanford as they clicked off a first down on our own 35. Then it hap-
pened! A Thornton back faded to throw a pass; it was a short one. over the
center of the line intended for another one of Maroon and Gold. Out of nowhere,
Larry Sweeney intercepted the pass inside his own thirty yard line and raced
down the far side of the field, past the fifty, the forty, the thirty, the twenty.
the ten, the five, and then into the end zone for the Sanford tally, where he was
mobbed by his happy team mates. The try for the extra point failed, and the
score stood Sanford 6, Thorntun o.
Then the TA attack really opened up. With what seemed like only seconds
left to play. Thornton racked up four first downs in a row by the use of a series
of line plunging plays which tore gaping holes in the Sanford line. The stands
were alive, people stood wondering if the time was ever going to run out on the
TA eleven’s steady drive. Just when it seemed that the Sanford line would
have to give way to the Thornton advance, time ran out with the ball resting
comfortably on the Sanford three yard line. One more play and the game would
probably have ended as it did two years ago when TA scored in the last play of
the game and kicked the point to win.
Though Sweeney’s long run was the highlight of the game. Blake turned in
several, beautiful long runs and almost broke away twice, only to be hauled down
from behind.
In his first year as SHS football coach. Danny Alvino has shaped up the first
team to turn back Thornton in seventeen years.
♦ ♦ ♦
In a roughly played game at Somersworth, N. IL, Sanford’s Redskins made
it three out of four during the current season by turning back the Granite Staters.
13 to 6, by virtue of Charlie Howe’s 52 yard touchdown run three plays into the
third quarter.
In the fray, which was somewhat marred by sloppy officiating and even slop-
• pier police work on the sidelines, Sanford opened the scoring by driving across
the Somersworth goal line after the opening kickoff. Larry Sweeney sparked
the offensive after Howe’s 19 yard runback of the kickoff, as he carried the ball
for the first four plays in a row. turning in gains of 12. 6, 4, and 6 yards con- '
secutively which carried the ball to the Somersworth 33 yard line. Here, Carami-
halis tossed an aerial to Brown, who made a neat fingertip clutch of the ball on
the 16. Sweeney, Simpson, and Carainihalis put together a first down on the
enemy three, and then, after Simpson was tossed for a 5 yard loss. Blake passed
to Savage in the end zone for the score.
Somersworth tied it up in the second quarter when Cote, left halfback for the
enemy, took a short pass on the Sanford 47 and shtxik off tackler after tackler
to score, standing up. Simpson knocked down a pass for the extra point, leaving
the score deadlocked at 6 all.
In the second half, Lizotte fell on the ball after the Sanford kickoff bounced
off a Somersworth man. giving the Redskins [>os session on the Hilltoppers’ 49.
PAGE 56
to r.t:rzrr
After absorbing a slight loss, the Redskins then set Howe free to run 52 yards
for the winning touchdown which Blake followed up with a dropkick for the
extra point.
♦ * * *
Sanford took its first real beating of the year, as a heavy Westbrook eleven
raised Cain in general and scored in all periods except the first to slap down the
Redskins with no trouble at all with a wide 27 to 6 margin.
Perhaps it was because of their letdown the previous Saturday at Somersworth,
but whatever it was, the Red ami White squad definitely was not showing its
stuff to the Paper City fans as play after play misfired, and the Sanfords looked
just plain helpless on the offense. Defensively they looked slightly better, but
as the Westbrook team, sparked by Gouzie. began to rack up the touchdowns,
that, too, began to crumble.
Westbrook, after being held in the first quarter, started the scoring in the
second canto with Gouzie doing most of the work, including place kicking the
joint after touchdown. History repeated soon after as the Paper City team
tallied seven more points to give them a 14-0 lead.
The second half was the same old story as Sanford couldn’t do a thing with
the ball, and Westbrook once more drove into the promised land with Gouzie
kicking the joint after. Then, in the fourth chapter, just to j>ut things really on
ice, they again scored. A placekick attempt failed.
Finally, in the dying minutes of the game, Sanford, trailing 21 to o, came to
life. After driving across midfield, Simpson tossed a beautiful pass on the dead
run to Savage who caught it just short of the goal line. Sweeney went over on
the next play.
* * * *
Biddeford High School's Tiger eleven continued on its merry unbeaten way at
Goodall Park in the annual Armistice Day battle between Sanford and Biddies
by defeating the Redskins 7 to o in the tightest battle seen here in a king, long
time. Desjiite a driving rain which fell during most of the game, a crowd of
more than 5,000 screaming fans watched the two teams fight it out—Biddeford
striving to continue its record of not having been defeated or tied during the
1946 season. Sanford doing its darndest to jiull the schoolboy upset of the year
by beating the Tigers or at least tying them.
* * ♦ ♦
Biddeford went into the scrap with the assurance of just about everybody that
they would be the winner by at least three and probably six touchdowns. Such.
however, was not to be. Despite the fact that they maintained control of the ball
for most of the first half, a strong Sanford line forced them to give the ball uj>
time after time. The Redskins just couldn’t get going at all. and it was the
beautiful punting of Bob Savage that pulled Sanford out of more than one hole.
Unfortunately. Lady Luck turned against the Redskins and handed the Orange
and Black just the break that it needed to break the stalemate. With less than
a minute left to play, a Biddeford pass to the SHS fifteen was batted into the
air by Charlie Howe but the Biddeford right end caught the ball before it hit the
ground, giving Biddeford a first down on the Sanford 15. Then with a fourth
down coming up and with only 20 seconds left to play, an enemy pass from Car-
tier to Cordeau connected for the only score of the game. Throumoulos rushed
the extra point. There was time only for the kickoff, and the half ended.
Sanford came back in the second half to completely outplay their opponents,
starting right off with three first downs put together by Ray Simpson. Savage,
and Howe, and cajtped by a 21 yard pass from Bob Blake to Everett Brown on
the Tiger nine, where the attack was stopped cold. Later attacks carried to the
Biddeford 43 and still deeper to the 28. A heavy Biddeford line squelched both
PAGE 57
to rorr
drives. As the seconds ticked away, hope once more came to the Sanford fans
as Bill W alker broke through to block a Biddie punt which rolled back to nine.
A mad scramble for the pigskin ensued, but it was Biddeford that recovered as
the game ended.
The entire Sanford line turned in a wonderful job of stopping the invaders, and
in the backfield, Howe and Simpson shone both on the attack and in the defense.
while Savage’s punting was superb.
♦ * * ♦
At the end of its first gridiron season under the leadership of Coach Alvino,
Sanford High has proved itself a football [tower which is not to be taken too
lightly by the larger schools in the states of both Maine and New Hampshire.
With a 1946 record of four wins and four defeats despite their handicap of being
a little bit too light to be at the top of the football heap, the Redskins have turned
in a successful season after all factors are taken into consideration. Only one
of Sanford’s defeats can be considered degrading: that victory by Westbrook.
27-6. In their other defeats, Lady Luck was quite a factor in the enemy’s favor.
At St. Louis, the Redskins were expected to l>e trampled by four touchdowns.
The Saints did well to come out on top by a 14-7 count. W hen Sanford met
Biddeford in their traditional Arnrstice Day clash, the Biddies, strongest school-
boy team in the state, managed to get their only score on a break with just 20
seconds to play in the first half. Finally, at Rochester, an extremely heavy
Spaulding eleven powered its way 65 yards for the game’s only score. Also in
Sanford’s favor is the fact that, while the defeats and losses were equal, San-
ford outscored its opposition.
Of all the games, perhaps the most thrilling was the night game with Thornton
Academy, when Larry Sweeney intercepted a '1'. A. pass and galloped 68 yards
for the only score of the fray, thereby giving Sanford its first victory over Thorn-
ton since 1929 (which is as far back as the records go) or earlier.

Basketball
Sanford High School opened the r 1946-1947 season by playing Lexington,
Mass, in the Boston Arena. In spite of an excellent exhibition of basketball our
boys lost by the heartbreaking score of 27 to 25. The boys found it a difficult
transition from the Springvale show box to the spacious arena; nevertheless.
Deetjen’s boys showed courage by leading at the half and Bobby Blake was top
scorer with 12 points.
For the second game of the season Deetjen took the team to Westbrook where
they lost to a highly noted Westbrook team in the last few seconds of play by
the score of 32 to 28.
With the roaring of a capacity crowd ringing in their ears the orphans promptly
went to work on the invincible ’Brookers and tossed in 22 points in the first three
periods while using the “T” defense to hold Westbrook to only five field goals.
However, the difference between victory and defeat proved to be Sanford’s in-
ability to shoot fouls and keep up the fast pace set by the victors.
The fact that Ray Simpson was tossed out of the game on a score keeper’s
error contributed in no small way to Westbrook’s last minute rally.
ST. LOUIS IS DOWNED IN CLOSE CONTEST
Sanford won its first game of the season against St. Louis when it nosed out
the Mill City quintet in a hard fought fray, 52-47.
Although Sanford was an overwhelming favorite to emerge on top in the
battle, St. Louis made the fight close by virtue of some sharp shooting by Potvin
and Hevey; and at the end of the first half, the Orphans had piled up 28 points
while the Saints had 23.

The Saints outscored Sanford in the third quarter to make the count 35*33’
but Nadeau dropped in three field goals and a brace of foul shots to give Sanford
a decisive margin in the last canto.
Blake and McKeon took scoring honors with 17 and 14 points respectively.
Sanford High ventured to Kittery to play Traip Academy and win their second
game of the year 35 to 22. Sanford got away to a quick start to lead at the end
of the first quarter 11 to 2. Traip came back to make the score 18-11 at the half.
Blake and Nadeau were the high scorers of the game with Blake scoring 13 points
and the latter to points.
*****
Biddeford High's basketball team, rebounding from two straight defeats, easily
snatched their first victory of the season from Sanford by a 21 point margin,
57-36.
Patterning their play after Rhode Island State, the Biddies and their fast
breaks completely outclassed the Orphans to lead all the way despite a third
quarter rally by the Redskins. Rene Iredette was the kingpin of the Biddeford
team with a total of 19 points in a game which saw reserves aplenty breaking
into the lineups.
Blake and Nadeau started
off the scoring with a field
goal apiece, but the Biddie:;
caught up in short order and
took the lead which they held
till the finale. Sanford con-
tinued to have trouble finding
the range of the Biddeford
bucket, and at halftime the
Orange and Black enjoyed a
26-14 advantage. In the third
quarter Sanford matched the
Biddeford scoring, but Bidde-
ford really pulled away in the
last canto with 19 points to
give them the final verdict.
Nadeau. Blake, and Simpson
topped the Orphan scoring
department.
*****
In their first meeting of the
season with Thornton Acad-
emy. the Sanford High quin-
tet took a terrific beating to
the inglorious tune of 46 to
26. Everyone, with the ex-
ception of Bill Nadeau, came
forth with an off night which
ruined the Orphans’ cause
from the start.
TA held the reins throughout the game with Soucy and Harvey each racking
up 18 points to pace the Maroon and Gold attack. Thornton outscored the Red-
skins in every period with the exception of the third, when Sanford scored point
for point to leave their position unchanged.

Only bright star shining
through the gloom of defeat
was Nadeau, who was defi-
nitely "on” and racked up 13
points.
ST. IGNATIUS ROMPS
THROUGH REDSKINS
Worst finally came to worst
at St. Ignatius Hall when a
strong St. Ignatius team liter-
ally tore Sanford High’s five
to pieces in the first meet ng
of the two town teams this
year. Although they started
slowly, the Saints gained ra-
pidly in the second half to
build up a 51-35 victory mar-
gin.
Getting off to fast start, the
Redskins made it look as if
the boasts of the rival school
might soon be crushed to earth
with little trouble, but despite
a 13-8 lead at the end of the
first quarter, the Orphans be-
gan to fade slowly for one
reason or another, among them
being a bit of tough luck on many of their shots, fatigue, and the fact that the tiny
hall was packed with a huge crowd whose feet marie the playing surface even
smaller; and at the end of the first half, the Saints held a slim 19-17 edge.
In the second half, the Redskins started off at another fast clip, but even though
they built up a narrow lead for a short time, the St. Ignatius five pulled ahead
again, and at the three-quarter mark the Saints’ lead was increased to 27-24.
Sanford failed to score after this until late in the fourth quarter when both Blake
and Nadeau began to find the range again; but time was running out, and St.
Ignatius emerged victorious.
* * * *
There’s such a thing as giving the crowd a thrill, hut Sanford High’s Orphans
almost carried the thing a little too far in edging out Traip at St. Ignatius Hall,
35-34. Although the Redskins easily beat Traip in their first meeting, the second
game’s outcome was in doubt right up to the final buzzer. The Redskins held a
slim lead at the half, but the Kittery team hung on. and in the tinal two minutes
of the last quarter, they were leading 34-33. With a minute to go, Simpson broke
through the defense and tossed in a beautiful lay-up to give Sanford the necessary
edge.
* * * ♦
Sanford took it on the chin once more at Biddeford as the Orange and Black
worked their fast break offense successfully and finished on top, 57 to 39.
Although Biddeford didn’t quite run away with the first quarter, they did just
that with the second when they scored 25 points to stretch a 13-8 margin to a 38-18
lead at the half. The Redskins couldn’t seem to find the key to a successful de-
fense until the final canto when they dropped in 16 points to the Biddies 7. By
the time "our team was red hot" however, the game was over.
Cartier, sucker man on the Biddie break, was high man with 27 points, while
Blake was the best Sanford could produce with 9.

It was a wild and wooly game at Bath that the Morse Shipbuilders finally won,
thanks to 24 foul shots, over Sanford. 50-42, Things were considerably livened
up along alxiut the end of the first half, when both referees saw the same foul
and proceeded to call the infraction on two separate Sanford players, Nadeau,
who actually committed it, and Simpson, who was several feet away from the
scene. This climaxed two periods of sloppy officiating, and Coach Deetjen forth-
with gathered up players and equipment and left the floor to Morse and its officials.
After an absence of several minutes. Deetjen agreed to finish out the tilt.
Ouellette of Morse then sank his two foul shots and one more taken for a
technical against Sanford for leaving.
The Shipbuilders held a 25-20 lead over the Redskins at the half, and out-
scored Sanford in the third period for a 40-32 advantage which they clung to
through the final canto. Sanford was considerably weakened by the loss of four
key men—Simpson, Nadeau, Caramihalis, and McKeon—via personal fouls.
Although they outscored Morse from the floor, the Redskins sank only twelve
fouls while Morse dropped in twenty-four.
♦ * * *
History almost repeated itself at Portland, when Sanford High met Westbrook
at the Exposition Building for the second time in as many years. Fans who re-
called last year’s 45-11 drubbing which the Blazes handed the Orphans then, had
visions of another such occurrence, when with fourteen minutes already gone in
the first half, the 'Brooks held a 17-3 lead over Coach Deetjen’s crew. Those
three little points were the result of a series of free throws by Bill Nadeau, and
it wasn’t until the half only had fifteen seconds to go that the first field goals for
Sanford were tallied, two of these finally dropjied in by Bob Blake. Thus West-
brook held a 17-8 lead at the half.
In the second half, though, the fans saw a “new' team.” In less than 45 seconds,
Blake and Nadeau had each scored for the Redskins, and W estbrook called a
time out to talk things over. Blake and Gouzie then exchanged foul shots, but
Hanson scored for the ’Brooks to leave them with a 20-13 edge. At this point
Sanford began to pour it on. McKeon tossed in a free throw, Blake laid up a
two pointer. Nadeau scored two foul shots, then he and Blake bulged the twine
with a field goal apiece. While this was going on. \\ estbrook sneaked in one foul
shot. This burst by the Orphans knotted the count 21 all as the third quarter
closed.
In the final period, Simpson dropped in a field goal to offset one by Chamard.
The ’Brooks scored a field goal and a foul to go ahead 26-23. but Blake knotted
the count again with a field goal and foul of his own. Finally, just before the
automatic time out, Westbrook tallied from way out, and Sanford never quite
caught up again. After the time out, Blake made a free throw good to leave the
Redskins behind 28-27, but Hanson. Chamard, and Gouzie used the game to give
Westbrook the victory. 34-27. Blake and Nadeau were the big guns for Sanford,
while Chamard sparked the victors.
♦ ♦ ♦ ♦
• Sanford finally came through in a rough battle at the Saco Armory to get re-
venge for an earlier defeat by the TA hoopsters as they fought to a 38-32 victory
over Thornton.
The Orphans picked up a 7-6 lead at the end of the first canto, and were never
headed throughout the rest of the game. Harold Walsh, who has previously
seen very little action in Sanford’s other games, proved to be the spark plug of
the Redskin attack in the second quarter after he had replaced Simpson, who
retired temporarily with four fouls against him in the first period. Walsh dropped
in three field goals in this quarter.
PAGE 62
Early in the final canto Sanford held a ten point lead and it was successful in
holding down a Thornton rally while Bill Nadeau iced the verdict with a pair of
late-quarter goals. Both he and Blake were on top for SHS with 11 points apiece.
♦ * * *
Spaulding High of Rochester, already picked to compete in the New Hampshire
state tourney got quite a scare during a March-of-Dimes exhibition game at their
gym when Sanford ripped off to a terrific start in the first canto to chalk up a
19-7 lead with Bill Nadeau pouring in five goals to pace the Orphan attack.
Gradually, however, the Rochester defense tightened to the jxrint where it re-
sembled a loose hockey defense and Sanford's shooting went from very good to
worse then very bad. Paced by Breton. Spaulding ace. the N. 11. five gradually
whittled away the Sanford lead tint 1 they managed to net a 35-34 lead by the be-
ginning of the fourth canto.
Once ahead. Spaulding stayed there, but the outcome was in doubt right up to
the finish, (a disputed one at that). As the final buzzer sounded, a shot by Bill
Nadeau was dropping through the twine, but the officials ruled that the buzzer
had sounded before the shot was taken. As a result of this, the Orphans were
left two points behind and Spaulding took the verdict. 40-38.
♦ ♦ * *
Portland High’s tourney hopes took a rude jolt when heretofore dormant San-
ford suddenly found itself at Portland and proceeded to shoot the opposition
silly, with Bob Blake and Bill Nadeau racking up twenty-seven points between
them to pace the Orphans to a 40-39 victory.
Although Sanford never came anywhere near running away with the game.
they led throughout, with the exception of a few minutes in the first canto when
Portland held a slight lead and once in the third when the count was knotted,
19-19. The Orphans hit on 36% of their shots, many of them set shots, and
early in the fourth quarter held a 36-28 lead.
Portland put on a terrific bid for a win in the last frame when Mike Colella
came into the game and sank nine points of his own to bring the Portlanders
within one point of tying the score. Colello’s last shot hit from way out with two
seconds left in the game.
♦ ♦ ♦ ♦
Sanford High finally gained sweet revenge for that first drubbing by rolling
over St. Ignatius, 37 to 28.
The Saints, fresh from the Class B tourney at Lewiston, were left in a cloud of
dust at the beginning of the game as the Orphans started at a terrific pace to run
up an 11-3 lead at the first quarter mark. Still going strong, they stretched the
margin to 18-5 figures early in the second canto, but the Saints recovered and
were only five points behind, 22-17, at •I’0 half.
The third quarter was extremely quiet as far as scoring went, with each team
scoring only three |>oints, leaving their positions unchanged. In the final |>eriod,
Sanford once more applied the pressure and finished fast with a total of twelve
points for the quarter while the Saints were putting together eight, letting the
Redskins wind up the season with the 37-28 victory under their belts.

Baseball
Although the hoys dropj>ed more games than they won during the current
schedule. Coach Nunan, who is also the Telegram League president, is proud
of the great spirit and marked improvement in his team. Most of the contests
in the loss column were hotly contested, and just a bit of luck would have turned
these into victories.
The seniors on the club were Merle Spring, a very reliable moundsman and
pinch hitter; Charlie Howe, the best third baseman in the league; "Hunky” Beau-
lieu, leading hitter of the club; Raymond Roussin, one of the best ball hawks in
seasons; and Harold Randall, capable utility fielder and pitcher. The other boys
who earned letters were the following: Robert Savage, Roland Nadeau. Eugene
Gerry, Edward Maher. Richard McKeen. John Caramihalis, Owen Maher, and
Donald Rand and Roger Williams were the managers.
Track
This year Principal Page decided to revive track after a lapse of many years.
John Turcotte, who joined the faculty in the middle of the year, was chosen as
head coach and was assisted by Robley W ilson and Mr. Page.
Track fans consider that the team was outstanding for a first year develop-
ment. The team took part in several meets and succeeded in capturing its share
of the events and winning one dual encounter with Westbrook High School. It
is hoped that track is at Sanford High School to stay.
The lettermen were as follows: Robert Beaudoin and Merle Spring, seniors;
Arnold Runnells, W illiam Walker. Robert Savage, and Gordon Wilson, juniors;
and Lawrence Sweeney, sophomore. Robert Torno was the manager.

School Play
Junior Miss, a three act comedy, was presented by the Dramatics Chib February
20 at the Sanford Town Hall.
An entertaining story plus splendid acting made this play a success.
This is a story of the predicaments the Graves family became involved in
through their 13 year old daughter, Judy. Believing her father was in love with
Ellen, the boss’s daughter, Judy decided to take matters into her own hands.
Then the plot unfolded. Mr. Graves lost his job, Ellen married Judy’s uncle, and
Lois, Judy’s sister, lost her friends. When a satisfactory solution was found and
all thanks pointed accidentally to Judy, she became the heroine.
The play was under the direction of Marjorie Vallely. Anne Woods, and John
Turcotte. Prompters were Joan Clark and Nancy Allen. The general manager
was Mary Pickles, assisted by Marie Johnson and Emma Yuill. Constance Wiley
was in charge of advertising.
The cast is as follows:

Winter Carnival
The third annual Winter Carnival was again the biggest event of the year.
It was held February 20, 21, and 22. The school play Junior Miss opened the
Carnival. Thursday evening at the Sanford Town Hall. Friday afternoon had
been set aside for the judging of the snow sculptures and contests in winter
sports, but as no snow fell to aid the situation until Friday, these plans had to be
omitted. Then how it did snow that day! There was no school and to top it all
off, there was no bazaar at night either. However, as all arrangements were
made for this bazaar, it was merely postponed until a later date.
Saturday evening, February 22, climaxed our Winter Carnival. The Sno-Ball
was held at the Sanford Town Hall, with music furn'shed by Vic Firth and his
eleven piece orchestra. The main attraction at this affair was, of course, the
coronation of the queen, Mary Richards, by her attendant, Shirley Gowen. Other
attendants were the following: Junior, Joan McAleney; Sophomore, June E.
Brook; Freshman. Marion Yates. The crown bearer was 5 year old Sharon
Brook, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Harold Brook who were among the patrons and
patronesses. Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Allen and Dr. and Mrs. Carl Richards, parents
of the queen, were also in the receiving 1’ne.
The decorations consisted of murals depicting winter scenes, and a roof of
colored streamers which gave a very pretty and realistic atmosphere.
