THE SCREECH OWL

Hooting through the night the owl spreads its message of cheer and good fellowship to all. This is the first edition of “The Screech Owl,” our official school paper; the voice of the faculty, alumni, and students of Maynard High School.

Through the columns of these papers we will endeavor to express our opinions about school life, to contribute suggestions for improvements, and to welcome criticisms. In all to create a spirit of interest in school activities.

These are the happiest years of our lives. We will look back many a time and recall incidents that occurred during our high school days; but as the years advance and

these events become vague, it is then we can turn to “The Screech Owl.” Memories which have become obscure are readily recalled and once again come happy thoughts of high school days. It is up to you, Alumni and High School Students, to do your part that this paper may “carry on.”

We wish to thank all who have endeavored to assist us in the publication of this issue.
