PIONEERS! O PIONEERS!
Come my tan-faced children.
Follow well in order, get your weapons ready.
Have you your pistols? have you your sharp-edged axes?
Pioneers! O pioneers !
For we cannot tarry here.
We must march, my darlings, we must bear the brunt of danger.
We the youthful sinewy races, all the rest on us depend,
Pioneers ! O pioneers !
*********
All the past we leave behind.
We debouch upon a newer mightier world, varied world.
Fresh and strong the world we seize, world of labor and the march.
Pioneers ! O pioneers!
We detachments steady throwing.
Down the edges, through the passes, up the mountain steep,
Conquering, holding, daring, venturing as we go the unknown ways.
Pioneers! O pioneers!
*********
Has the night descended?
Was the road of late so toilsome? did we stop discouraged nodding on our way?
Yet a passing hour I yield you in your tracks to pause oblivious.
Pioneers! O pioneers!

Till with sound of trumpet.
Far, far off the daybreak call—hark! how loud and clear I hear it wind,
Swift! to the head of the army! swift! spring to your places.

Securing the material for a yearbook cannot be done without the assistance of
many people.
Mr. Page and the entire faculty eased the difficult task with their line coopera-
tion. To Mr. Schultz we owe many of the fine candid shots in our yearbook.
Our cover design was drawn by Mr. Ray Lord and Miss Hazel Harrison.
Miss Harrison also was of great assistance in planning the lay-out and art work.
To these jieople and to the many students who in some way helped us produce
and finance this yearbook, we express our sincere thanks.

Dedication
To Mr. Towle, with his kind word for all, we dedicate this yearbook. His
humor and warm personality, which never seem to change, strike a responsive
chord in all who meet him. The quiet manner in which he overlooks “horse-
play,” yet virtually eliminates it from his classes, not only proves his ability to
judge the characters of students, hut wins him their friendship.

Superintendent McCarn’s unfailing interest in the
activities of our school and in the accomplishments of
the individual student assures ns continued progress in
development of educational opportunities for Sanford
young people. As Seniors we wish to express our ap-
preciation for what he has done to enrich our high
school experiences.

As our principal, Mr. Page has shown those qualities
which have helped make Sanford High School one of
the best. His personal interest in each student and his
eagerness to cooperate in any way with the student
body are qualities which in themselves make his work
praiseworthy.
TO THE MEMBERS OF THE CLASS OF 1949
Sanford High enjoys an enviable place among the high schools of our state
due in great part to the forward looking citizens of our town, to the unselfish
contribution of our teachers, and to the cooperation of our students, themselves.
It has been a place, not simply to gather, to recite lessons and to leave as soon as
possible, but a place where real life lessons are learned—a live, pulsing community
m itself.
You will miss your school and it will in turn miss you, for you have spent
four years as an important part of that community, contributing much toward
making it a better place in which to live and work and learn.
It is my sincere hope that, after leaving, all of you will move steadily forward,
continuing your education either formally or informally. 1 hope. too. that forti-
fied by lessons of resjxmsibility and dependability which you have learned in your
school associations and activities, you will take your places as civic leaders or
‘‘enlightened followers" in the larger communities of which you will become a part.
It would l>e wise always to keep in mind these words of Shakespeare—
"Men at some time are masters of their fates;
The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars,
But in ourselves, that we are underlings.”

OUR VALIANT SCOUTS
The success of our ‘‘wagon train" in making its journey across the wilderness of educa-
tion is largely due to the able staff which supervised the trip. As we arc about to disband.
we would express our appreciation to each one for the part he played in getting us safely
through the many danger spots enroute and in preparing us for our individual expeditions
which we must soon undertake.
The three able map-makers for our wagon train were Superintendent Robert McCarn,
Principal Lawrence Page, and chief councilor, Henry Perry. Whenever we strayed from
the designated route. Sub-master Ithel Prescott was always able to get us safely back by
means of his blue admission slips. These leaders conveyed a definite confidence toward
our success in the many deeds they performed.
Serving as a general information bureau for the train and a clearing house of statistics
on each of us travelers were Mrs. Morrow and Mrs. Sladen. Many a time our train would
have been hopelessly mired but for the efficient and friendly services of these two secretaries.

Just as the skilled craftsman of the “gold rush” era
constructed and repaired the wagons for the migra-
tors, so today the worker skilled in construction and
repair is an important member of our industries.
Among us voyagers were the manual craftsmen of the
future. Under the surveillance of Mr. Cote and Mr.
Gorrie, these apprentices gained the knowledge intrin-
sic to the trade. Mr. Pascucci and Mr. Lamb guided
our craftsmen in the final stages of their apprentice-
ship, producing expert machinists.
We fellow travelers were not oblivious of the fine
contributions made by these apprentice craftsmen and
their instructors in the successful Junior Prom held
during the course of our journey.

But what would the world be without people also
skilled in feeding and clothing the human race?
Keenly aware of the need for efficient homemakers.
Miss Philbrick and Miss Waterhouse have worked
diligently with some of the fair sex in our train, im-
parting to them many a secret of the cook stove and
sewing machine. Miss Philbrick’s interested disciples
organized themselves into a club known as the Future
Homemakers of America, spending much of their
leisure time in activities aimed at increasing their
proficiency.
However, on our journey we learned that it wasn’t
only good food and clothes that “make the man,” but
that a good physical condition as received from daily
exercise was essential also. To Miss Flemming and
Mr. Nunan was designated the task of seeing that we
kept all muscles in full tone. How well we remember
their coaching in the skirmishes with enemy wagon
trains fought over |x>ssession of a basketball!

Naturally, en route, the various constituents of the
wagon train experienced humorous, sad, unforget-
table adventures. Mr. Towle, renowned journalist
and humorist, aided us in compiling these various
news items into a journal called The Red and II liite,
which was presented to the student body each month.
A detailed and interesting history in word and picture
of the entire journey prepared under the supervision
of Miss Proctor was also made available.
To Miss Folsom we looked for final instructions in
the communication arts and were treated to beautiful
examples of the power of the written word as set
down by our forefathers across the sea.
It may be noted that Miss Folsom exhibited an
exhilaration equalled only by that of us recruits when
Miss Vallely produced her highly entertain'ng plays by
the evening campfire. Though we were far away from
the professional stage, we felt that we could not pos-
sibly see better acting than that done by our fellow
travelers after weeks of training by Miss Vallely.
The nights she presented her plays are indelibly im-
pressed upon our memories.

Above the noise of the wagon wheels, the shouting
of the leaders, and the murmurings of the general
caravan, could be heard at all hours the clacking of
the typewriters as the three ladies of the commercial
department. Miss Fuller. Miss Donovan and Miss
O’Hara, prepared a certain number of us for the busi-
ness world. Once in a while it was a shrill “Cuckoo”
we heard. Then we knew it was Miss Fuller rushing
along to the head of the train and warning us of her
passing.
The scrupulous methods of our caravan treasurer.
Miss Donovan, made us proud of the organization in
which we were incorporated; for our finances always
proved adequate for launching offensive attacks in
competitive territory by our representing teams, as
well as for having a party now and then around the
campfire.
While the typewriters were an interesting diversion
for some, others enjoyed the scouting expeditions di-
rected by biologist. Mr. Topping, which enabled them
to witness the actual environment of the lower forms
of life. Those scouting parties were indeed a de-
lightful furlough from textbooks. On the last lap of
our journey Mr. Topping also administered a driver-
training course, producing some very excellent hand-
lers of the "horses” as a result.

It is an ancient policy to learn and benefit from past
mistakes and circumstances. Mr. Fahey advocated
this very idea in discourses on American history and
world events, and emphasized the challenge of the
great achievements as well. As sound effects man in
the play "Dear Ruth." he proved himself more than
just a history teacher.
Aiding in the effort to familiarize us with history
was Miss Mallinson. To Mrs. Long was given the
task of making good citizens out of us through her
Civics course.
In the comparatively recent study of Problems of
Democracy supervised by Mr. (rates, we gained "tre-
mend-jous” knowledge vital to the comprehension of
government. May we also acknowledge Mr. Gates’
musical ability as official bugler in the benefit play,
‘‘Arsenic and Old Lace.”

came under the jurisdiction of Mademoiselle Ton-

and a friend to all. she left her home town of Bruns-
wick. Maine, to join us. Dealing with the field of
foreign relations, she conveyed information concern-
ing French language and geography. Stepping into
her wagon was like entering France, so realistic were
the pictures with which she decorated its interior.
How to write a business letter or figure the cost of
painting our future home was learned from following
the directions given by Mr. Schultz, but more intricate
than either of these subjects were the rules of his fa-
vorite game. Chess. The hours spent with him over
the Chess board were oases in our journey across the
land of knowledge. Mr. Wilson’s library was also an
oasis to us; for, weary from studying, we could relax
with a bit of light literature found in a magazine or
novel.
Well along in our journey we threw open the doors
and rolled out the "Welcome” mat for a distinguished
gentleman by the name of Sir John Turcotte. English
teacher and track coach. A very gay, casual atmos-
phere enveloped Sanford High because of Sir John’s
humor. Mr. Turcotte’s departure for further study
at an Eastern college was a great loss to all.

For the members of the group “prospecting” for
engineering positions Mrs. Clarke’s advance math
courses, interestingly spiced with philosophy, plus Mr.
Clark’s physics course were essential. Mr. Clark also
served as a valuable assistant to our warriors when
they went out to do battle against enemy camps.
More math and science were handed out by Mr.
Arnold and Mr. “D. A.” Alvino, hut it was as gen-
erals in the battles of the pigskin that they shall long
be remembered. Whether they sent forth their teams
to invade foreign territory or to repel invasion of the
home camp, the battles were equally spirited. Even
now, as we near the end of the journey, we vividly
recollect those exciting encounters.

Part of our recollections of those affrays is colored with visions of our snappy
band marching across the field of battle in their red and white uniforms, and once
again we hear the strains of the martial music which stirred up within us the
fighting spirit. Though occasionally we may have bowed in defeat to enemy
wagon trains over the possession of the pigskin, we ever won the envy of our foe
with our band. But it was not only in the battle that Mr. birth and his assist-
ants, Mr. Ramsdell and Mr. Celia, displayed the talents of their musicians. A
softer, more soothing music was often played to us as we gathered around the
fireside on a cold evening.
Sometimes it was the voices of our fellow travelers united in choral singing
under the direction of Miss Harvey that delighted us in our recreation hours.
The annual concerts of her Boys’ and Girls’ Glee Chibs attracted many visitors
to our camp.
We cannot forget Miss Harrison who spent her time in our caravan showing
what delights exist for us in the field of art. Many a pleasing bit of scenery along
the way was sketched by her proteges; occasionally we caught them sketching
some of us. Whether it was a poster that was desired, illustrations for our
monthly journal or yearbook, or decorations for a whole wagon. Miss Harrison
and her aides always cheerfully supplied the need.
And now the gold country is just ahead. Soon we shall have that first pan of
gold, and then this valiant staff will turn back to guide other wagon trains west-
ward. W e. with their precepts and examples as a background, shall continue on-
ward, striving for better things with an assiduous desire to benefit from the long
journey WEST.

THE GOLD DIGGERS
Sanford High’s Redskins made one of their best records in recent years, losing
only three games out of nine played—and these by no more than one or two points.
Starting off the season they had only three regulars, John Caramihalis, ‘ Larry”
Sweeney, and ()wen Maher, plus two lettermen. Paul Demers and Rene Mathieu.
Sanford opened its 1948 season playing a night game against Cony High at
Augusta. The Redskins made a very auspicious debut by winning 13-0 and get-
ting revenge for a 39-0 defeat of four years ago. A very tragic thing happened,
however, early in the second period of this game when “Andy” Chabot, playing
his first game of football, broke his leg. In this game Charlie Caramihalis showed
great promise.
Sanford’s first home game was against Braintree, Massachusetts. It was a
thriller which the Redskins won 13-6 to avenge last year’s defeat at Braintree. It
was a team victory, with the entire backfield showing up well.
The Redskins lost a heartbreaker at St. Louis in another night game, losing
14-13. Sanford had the ball on the opponents’ 15-yard line when the game ended,
page 21
climaxing a march which had taken the ball from their own 25. The most spark-
ling play of this inarch was when John Caramihalis, faking a run around left
Hank, turned and threw a long pass to Owen Maher which was good fur 45 yards.
Paul Demers and Charlie Caramihalis gave scintillating performances, e tch scor-
ing a touchdown on brilliant runs.
The Spaulding game was another thriller which Sanford won 7-6. "Larry”
Sweeney was Sanford's big man, scoring a touchdown on a nine-yard jaunt
around left end, after bringing the ball down the field
on many good-sized gains. The extra point was
scored when John Caramihalis, on a fake place kick.
passed over the line to Owen Maher. Bill Holland’s
line play was very good in this game. Over one thou-
sand fans from Sanford were present in spite of the
downpour.
Sanford journeyed to Somersworth, New Hamp-
shire, to overwhelm a comparatively weak Somers-
worth team 26-0. Paul Demers was the big star of
this game, going for several sizable gains including a
54-yard run around left end. "Charlie” Caramihalis
also played sparkling ball, going for many good runs.
Thornton Academy invaded Sanford for what was
perhaps the best offensive game seen for many a year.
The game ended in a 20-20 tie. There was excitement
every minute of the game. "Charlie” Caramihalis was
the brilliant star of this game, taking the ball on al-
most every play and making gains with an amazing
average of 9 yards per carry. This game also at-
tracted an overflow crowd.
Sanford journeyed all the way to Hingham, Massa-
chusetts, to be defeated in the last minute, 14-12. San-
ford, trailing at half time 6-0, came back strongly in
the third period scoring twice but failing to make the extra points. The Redskins
scored their first touchdown on the “Doc Cobb” play which saw John Caramihalis
on a fake end run pass to Owen Maher. The second touchdown was when
"Charlie” Caramihalis scored on a beautiful run from the 19-yard line. Leo
Poulin’s high booming punts kept Hingham in their own territory through most

Westbrook. John ami "Charlie” Caramihalis, and Paul Demers were the big
stars of this game. Though going behind 6-0 in the first period. Sanford was
never troubled the rest of the afternoon.
The 1948 season came to a close when Sanford met their chief rival. Biddeford,
in an Armistice Day clash which saw Biddeford emerging the victor 21-20. The
whole team played a beautiful game with John Caramihalis, “Larry” Sweeney,
Paul Demers, “Jimmy” McCarn. Leo Poulin and Richard Baldwin playing their
last game for Sanford High. “Charlie” Caramihalis’ 55-yard run followed by
John Caramihalis' touchdown pass to Demers, “Larry” Sweeney’s 45-yard run
from behind his own goal line, and Paul Demers’ long touchdown pass to Owen
Maher were features which brought the spectators to their feet.
John Caramihalis was awarded the Spiller Trophy at the foothall banquet given
by the Laymen’s League for being the outstanding senior of the 1948 team. Carl
Wiggin, a former Sanford High star and now Deering High's principal, was the
guest speaker of the evening. The banquet was in honor of “Doc” Cobb who for
years has been the team's physician and most ardent fan. He received a football
autographed by the squad and coaches as a token of their appreciation of what
he has clone to promote sports in Sanford. Thus a memorable season was brought
to a close with school and local spirit having reached a new height in football, as
shown by the large crowds of followers which had backed the team at home and
away.

The ’48-’49 basketball varsity team was seldom able to pan as much gold in an
evening as its opponent; therefore the season’s record is not so impressive for
the group of ’4<)ers as they fondly dreamed it would be when practice began last
November. This dream of a rich season was not the only one shattered, for there
was a time when these boys visioned themselves as the first group to stake claims
in the Memorial Gymnasium. Even their mentors believed so strongly in this
dream that they bought the boys new uniforms for the anticipated occasion.
Resplendent in white satin plus red trimmings, our boys opened the season, not
in the Memorial Gymnasium, but in the Portland Exposition Building with
Deering as an opponent. As went that game so did seventeen others. However,
in all the games, whether won or lost, the action was fast and exciting. Though
not so expert at getting the ball through the basket as some of its opponents,
nevertheless the team forced the enemy to work for its gold producing tosses.
The totals of the season reveal that opponents excelled
Sanford only four and one-half baskets on an average
per game.
The majority of the team will return to do battle
for Sanford next basketball season, and they are as-
sured the Memorial Gym as a battle ground. An ade-
quate gym plus the strong recruits which will be ad-
vanced to Varsity from the junior Varsity, which won
thirteen of its eighteen game schedule, makes the pros-
I>ects for next year seem bright indeed. The experi-
ence gained by the boys in this off-season will defi-
nitely yield gold in

THE VARSITY BOYS
John Caramihalis—senior who played the field with good results. He contributed the fa-
mous over-the-shoulder shot and was third highest scorer with 120 points
“Larry” Schwartz—senior and forward with the foul shooting touch. He contributed 71
points to the cause.
“Larry” Sweeney the “John L.” of the Senior Class. Noted for the sideline one hander.
His work as a guard proved disturbing to many an opponent.
Robert Dubois guard of the Junior Class with the "You waited too long" trademark. He
developed fast this season into a very smooth ball-handler.
Owen Maher—a guard from the Junior Class nicknamed the “rebound getter." He also
had a share in the scoring honors with his 124 points.
Ernest Ross—a junior crowned the fastest midget on two feet. He was a third period hot-
shot with 74 points for the season.
Roger Sherburne of the Junior Class and a natural center with his height. Remember,
Sherbie. “You gotta go. go. go.” He did some neat shooting at times with total of 60
points.
Charles Caramihalis—a sophomore forward who took high scoring honors with 165 points.
He was tops in all-round play.
Charles Killam— the aching back of the sophomore group with height for a great future.
He powered 30 points through the nets.
Maurice “Pete” Lavertu—a guard of the Sophomore Class and a long shot artist with a
total of 80 points to his credit.

GIRLS’ HI-Y
After a lapse of several years, the Girls’ Hi-Y was
reorganized in 1947 so several of the senior members
have been participating in Hi-Y activities for three
years.
In many ways the members have been trying to live
tip to the purpose of the club, "To Create, Maintain,
and Extend throughout the school and community,
high standards of Christian character.” They have
organized a baby sitting agency, sold Christmas cards,
sponsored an annual New Year’s Eve Dance, and have
held several covered dish suppers.
Regular meetings of the club are held on alternate
Thursday nights, under the guidance of our advisors.
Miss Tondreau and Miss Donovan.
HI-Y
Seated: Evelyn Trafton, president.
Standing: Phyllis Boucher, secretary; Ann
Nutter, vice president: Betty Carpenter,

TRI-HI-Y CLUB
The Tri-Hi-Y Club consists of thirty-
five girls from Sanford High and St.
Ignatius High. The club holds its meet-
ings every other Tuesday starting the first
week in September and ending the last
week in May.
This year's activities have included a
splash party at the Portland Y. M. C. A.
and a bowling match with the following
girls taking part: First team: Pauline
Robillard, Gertrude Chapais. Frances
Brocato, Mary Fawcett and Shirley Pelle-
tier; second team: Dorothy Milligan, Con-
nie Gauthier. Constance Dart, Marilyn
Pickles, Muriel Burbank and Ruth Downs.
Miss Flemming, the physical education
teacher, was guest speaker at one of the
meetings, recounting some of her college
experiences. The advisors for this chib
are Mrs Pauline Robillard and Mrs. Dor-
othy Milligan.
TRI-HI-Y
Glendine Poole, vice president; Gertrude
Chapais, president; Frances Brocato, treas-

The Boys' Hi-Y, which meets
every Wednesday evening, has been
a very active group. It is sponsored
by the Y. M. C. A. in cooperation
with the high school. Mr. .Arnold,
of the faculty, is the advisor.
One of the main interests is the
system of having club members in
charge of an entertainment each
week. These programs last approxi-
mately fifteen minutes. Two special
meetings were held, with Mr. Gates
as the speaker at one, and movies of
the Joe Louis fight shown at the
other.
A spring ping-pong tournament
was also planned by the club.

STL DENT COUNCIL
The Student Council of Sanford High has for the year 1948-49 the following officers:
Carolyn Lamb, president; Ralph Travis, Vice President; June Brook, Secretary; and Con-
stance Fontaine, Treasurer.
The Student Council again sponsored Freshman Week. Each freshman boy and girl had
to wear his clothes wrong-side out and to carry signs identifying themselves. A party
held in the Legion Hall Friday morning climaxed the week. The committees for this week
were: Evelyn Trafton, June Brook, Carolyn Lamb, David Field, Constance Fontaine and
Ralph Travis.
The awards system was brought to the attention of the council and a committee was
chosen as follows: Roger Thereault, Melba Harrison, Constance Fontaine and Joanne
Page. Special meetings were held with the coaches and representatives of the various
sports. It was decided that one letter would be awarded during high school and emblems
and service bars would be added to denote the sports.
Five of the mcmliers—Carolyn Lamb, Betty Vaccaro, Evelyn Trafton, Melba Harrison
and Joanne Page—attended the Maine Association of Student Councils that was held at
Edward Little High School in Auburn.
The Carnival Ball at which Shirley Morrow and Andre Chabot were crowned queen and
king was held under the auspices of the council. The committees for the carnival were:
Program, Evelyn Trafton, Constance Fontaine and Joanne Page; decorations. Barbara
Vaccaro, Betty Vaccaro. Ralph Travis and David Field; sports, Joanne Page, Roger Ther-
eault, Melba Harrison, Ralph Travis and Robert Brocato; advertising, Shirley Taylor, Jean
Ramsdell, Paula Schwartz, Ralph Travis and Herbert Nelson.
A publicity committee for the council was elected consisting of Ralph Travis, Melba Har-
rison, Raymond Gendron and June Brook. This committee secs that publicity is put into
the school and local papers.
A Junior Red Cross Drive was led by the council and S. H. S. hail one hundred per cent
enrollment. The council is planning by another year to have handbooks printed in which a
plan of the school will be drawn, lists made of the faculty, subjects, activities and sports.
The racks for books outside the cafeteria were a project of the Student Council ami
was carried out by the shop classes. This leaves much more room at the tables for trays.
At Open House, when the parents and friends came to visit the school, the council mem-
bers were stationed around the building as guides.
The council this year continued its policy of visiting other schools to see how their
councils functioned.
The Student Council has l>een very active this year, ami it is hoped that it may continue
to be through the coming years.

The Sanford and Springsale chapter of the Future Homemakers of America was organ-

President, Wanda Spring; vice president. Rita Stafford; secretary, Joan McAleney; treas-
urer, Patricia Blake; parliamentarian, Shirley St. Cyr; historian. Doris Provencher; re-
porter, Beatrice Wilson; and song leader, Ruth Barreras. Over forty members received
their badges.
Many useful projects were carried out in the course of the year. A supper for the mem-
bers’ mothers was the first activity. In December a Christmas party was given for pre-
school children. Favors were made for the hospital trays on New Year’s and Valentine’s
Day. Boxes of fudge, made by the girls, were sent to the veterans in Togus Hospital, and
a food sale was also held. The largest project undertaken by the F. H. A. was the “Court-
esy Week’’ program in February. Posters were put up throughout the school, and a jingle
contest was held.
Although the F. H. A. is a newly organized club at Sanford High, it has certainly been
one of the most active. In its one year of existence it has made for itself a permanent
place in the extra-curriculum program.
G. A. A.
The Girls’ .Athletic Association started the year off with the election of the following
officers June Brook, president: Patricia Jackson, vice president; Thelma Burbank, secre-
tary; and Irene Walsh, treasurer. One girl was chosen from each Physical Education
class as athletic representative to the G. A. A. These girls were Rita Randall, Anna Four-
nier, Henriette Alexandre, Barbara Kingsbury, Ann Nutter and Joan Allen.
A Hallowe’en dance, with Harold Patrick as master of ceremonies, ami the Carnival Ba-
zaar in February were the outstanding activities of the year.

DEBATING CU B
Sanford’s 1949 debating club, a member of the National Forensic League, consisted of
all novices but one, the only veteran being Marlon Pickles, who debated successfully last
year.
Debating teams have participated in the Bowdoin Forum, The Bates Debating League,
and have taken trips to Lewiston, Brunswick, South Portland and Rochester.
At Bowdoin College in the debate concerning price support of agricultural products,
Marlon Pickles and Blanche W'agg placed S. H. S. in fourth place among twelve of the
largest schools in Maine. In his panel Marlon Pickles was second only to Portland High
School's leading debater.
The Bates League question this year was: Resolved, that the U. N.’s charter be revised
in order to form a W orld Federal Government.
Those participating in the debating of the Bates League were Marlon Pickles, Nickie
Vargelis, Betty Belleau, Wayne Wright, Paula Schwartz, Nancy O’Connell, Paul Poulin,
Raymond Gendron, Blanche W agg, Shirley Pelletier, Howard Strang and Margaret Frazier.
This year there has been very good competition in all debates.
CHESS CLUB
The chess club this year had a large increase in membership over previous years. There
are a total of thirty-nine members; only seven are girls.
A match was played in Kennebunk with the return match in Sanford. Several other
matches were arranged by Mr. Schultz, the advisor, and were played with skillful technique.
It is anticipated that more matches and tournaments will l>e held with various schools
before this year is completed. Mr. Schultz hopes to build a substantial schedule of matches
for the 1949-50 season.

LITTLE BOHEMIA
Not a day passes in the lives of most of the students of Sanford High, when they do
not at some time or other enter the cheerful, though slightly untidy, art room. The uses
of this room are many and varied. The conversation is anything from Shakespeare to the
evils of modern art. The pupils are either aspiring da Vincis or lovers of art who use
the period for relaxation. When a ball or prom is coming up, the room is a whirlpool of
confusion; and all who enter may expect to exit with at least one spot of paint smeared on
them.
The floors, walls and furniture tell the history of this room with its useful life. The
gold paint accidentally spilled on the floor is from the decorations used in the one act play,
“Command Performance.” The white and blue paint spilled on the side wall is from the
1049 “Snowflake Ball.’’ The spots of paint on the tables are from the posters made for
the Poppy Contest; and there are always the annual Ingersol calendars on the bulletin
board. There has been many a student who has stood before this calendar wishing that
he were looking at his prize-winning painting reproduced there, and that in his hand were
clutched the $100 prize money.
In this history of the art room, we must not fail to remark on the woman behind the
desk, the mistress of the art room. Miss Hazel Harrison. Her patience with the aforesaid
da Vincis and her tolerance of the relaxers will always be remembered. She will go down
in history as one of the most understanding members of the faculty.
Of the many who depart from this room only a few can ever attain great success but all
have learned to capture moments of enjoyment by appreciating art. You who have not
spent a few hours of your time in this room of paint, paper and brush, do not know the
wonderful feeling of learning to put your thoughts on paper.
The art room with its treasure of memories will not be forgotten by those who have
passed through its portals or by those who have yet to come.

cert. The money received from this was for transportation to the Festivals.
The Glee Clubs were represented in the New England Concert Festival which was held
this year in Wellesley. Massachusetts. The Glee Club also attended the festivals at Auburn
and Ohl Orchard.
The diction of the singers improved with each meeting; the tones are now freer and
there is a better blending of the voices.

THE MORALE BOOSTERS
Under the direction of Mr. Firth, assisted by section directors, Mr. Celia, wood winds,
and Mr. Ramsdell, percussion, the band has been steadily improving and has a memtiership
of approximately one hundred students. This year for the first time the band has had four
regularly scheduled periods each week.
In the fall a tag day was held in order to raise money for the new Sanford High School
Band raincoats. The hand paraded for an hour in the morning, and a great number of tags
were sold in the course of the day. The band participated in the Armistice Day parade.
traveled to two out of town football games, and attended all the home games, displaying
fyie appearance and performance.
In the fall, when weather permitted, the band marched and drilled under the leadership
of Mr. George Simpson and his assistants, and since has displayed its “S” drill formation
representing Sanford. At the Thornton game, the band proudly made its first appearance
in the new' gray raincoats designed with a red arm insignia and gold braid.
The band lioosters have made it possible for the band to participate in the festivals and
school activities, and deserve hearty thanks for their cooperation.
The band’s first concert, presented on February it, was highly satisfactory. The march,
"Washington Post" by Sousa, was the opening number of the program. A descriptive nov-
elty, "At The Minstrel Show”, was a featured specialty number, with Jane Belleau and
Rheal Normand accompanying the band in a soft shoe dance. The interlocutor, Harold
Patrick, with the end men. Sambo, Paul Bergeron ; and Charcoal, Ralph Travis, partici-
pated in the number. The band’s interpretation of “Poet and Peasant" was the high spot
of the concert for many in the audience. Concluding the program, the band played the
National Anthem. Soloists on the program were Albert Garon playing a cornet solo,
"Cliftonian Polka" by Williams; Paul Flagg playing a clarinet solo, "Shower of Gold" by
Boulin; and Glendine Poole, another clarinet solo, “First Movement from Concerto in G
Minor" by Bennett. The soloists were accompanied by Shirley Taylor and Dorothy Perkins.
At the festivals last year, held at Brunswick, Maine, and Hampton Beach, New' Hamp-
shire, the S. H. S. band received very high ratings from the official judges. This year the
Western Maine Festival is scheduled to be held at Auburn, and the New England Festival
w ill be held at Old Orchard Beach.
The musicians who were chosen to represent the S. H. S. band at the All New England
Festival to be held at Wellesley, Massachusetts, March jo to April 2, were Roland Horne,
Paul Flagg and Glendine Poole.

The orchestra, consisting of approximately thirty students, was a very active organization
this year under the able direction of Mr. Firth assisted by Mr. Celia, the section director of
the wood winds. The weekly rehearsal of the orchestra was held on Wednesday during the
activity period.
The first concert of the year was presented in conjunction with the Portsmouth High
Orchestra, December 17, at Portsmouth, under the direction of both conductors, Mr. Firth
and Mr. Kushiotis. The concert was repeated in Sanford on February 11.
On March 26, an evening of delightful music was presented to the citizens of Sanford
when the combined High School Glee Clubs, directed by Miss Harvey, presented a joint
concert with the orchestra at the Town Hall. All proceeds from the concert went towards
transportation funds to Music Festivals.
Jolene Simpson, Naida Nickerson and Bernadine Anderson were selected to represent
Sanford at the All New England Orchestra Festival held at Wellesley College Alumni Hall.
Wellesley, Massachusetts. March 30 to April 2. The whole orchestra participated in the
Western Maine Music Festival at Auburn and the New England Music Festival at Old
Orchard Beach.

up had gone any farther than Mother and Daddy.

Rotary Club for the benefit of their Community Service Fund. The comedy was presented
before a full house on both occasions.

The Class of ’52 started off on September 7, 1048. with Mrs. Helen Long and Mr. Law-
rence Arnold as advisors. Officers chosen to guide us through the year were Randolph
Chapman, president; Eugene Savage, vice president; Gloria Trafton, secretary; and Betty
Rankin, treasurer. Freshman Week found the boys dressed as girls, and girls in an inside
out fashion, but to climax the week, at the Senior party, we were judged and punished for
insults to seniors. The Freshman Reception turned the seniors from horrors to intimate
f riends.
That we have lost no time in making ourselves an intricate part of Sanford High is evi-
dent from the following list of activities and achievements.

SOPHOMORE GIRLS
PROSPECTORS OE 1951
We sophomores are no longer pioneers in this vast section of riches. W'e are now nearly
full-fledged inhabitants. We have staked claims in a good many of the various fields.
“Charlie” Caramihalis made the all-state third football team and the York County first
team. Roger Durant, likewise, got right down to business on that football field.
In basketball, Ray LaChance was the outstanding prospector on the JV’s and Norman
Belanger came digging right along. Outstanding players on the varsity were “Charlie"
Caramihalis, “Pete" Lavertu and Charles Killam. Although the team only won a few
games, our soph boys showed a great deal of promise and gave what they had. Two ardent
hopefuls who played well this year and intend to stake a bigger claim next year are Ronald
and Henry Nadeau.
THE EXECUTIVES
Seated: S. Pelletier, secretary; C. Carami-
halis, president.
Standing: C. Killam, vice president; A. Four-

to pay dirt with A’s and B’s for rank were Doris Arseneault, Betty Boucher, Elinor Brown,
Anna Fournier, Raymond Gendron, Janice Heald, Doris Levesque, Jeannette Moineau,
Eugene Normand, Shirley Pelletier, Joan Roberts, Jolene Simpson, Howard Strang.

MAXIMS TO GUIDE A YOUTH
By Ont of Your f^etghborj
Keep good company or none. Never be idle; if your hands
cannot be usefully employed, attend to the cultivation of your
Always speak the truth; make few promises; live up to your
engagements; when you speak to any person, look him straight
in the face.
Good company and good conversation are the very sinews of
virtue. Good character is above all things else. Never listen
to loose or idle conversation; you had better be poisoned in
your blood than in your principles.
Your character cannot be essentially injured except by yout
own acts. If any one should speak evil of you, let your life be
so virtuous that none will believe him.
Always speak and act as if in the presence of your Maker;
drink no intoxicating liquors; ever live, misfortune excepted,
within your income; when you retire to bed think over what
you have done during the day.
Never speak lightly of any one, make no haste to be rich if
you would prosper; small and steady gains give competency
with tranquillity of mind.
Never play any game of chance; avoid the temptation through
fear that you may not withstand it. Earn your money before
you spend it. Never run in debt unless you see a way to get
out of it.
Never borrow, if you can possibly avoid it. Be just before you
are generous. Keep yourself innocent if you would be happy.
Save when you are young, to spend when you are old.
Never think what you do to alleviate the sufferings of your
fellow beings time or money lost. Be kind and generous, for
the whole human family is depending one upon the other.
