The Staff has selected the name. The Oracle for the 1933 Year- book. We believe that the word oracle implies wisdom and is sug- gestive of prophetic powers. The selection is the result of much deliber- ation: it is our hope that the name will endure through the years as the symbol of our class. ln fact, we trust that the name will serve always for Wakefield High School Yearbooks. Doubtless it is fitting to explain at this time the difference between the Yearbook and the Debater. The Yearbook is a leather-bound edition composed of photographs of every member of the class. personal paragraphs about each one, various group pictures, club and sport reports, as well as any additional features desired by the compilers. The Debater has a paper cover and consists of numerous literary articles. group pictures. sport write-ups, drawings, and cartoons. lt is essentially a magazine in form and content. A Yearbook is a class publication, edited by a staff composed entirely of seniors. whereas the Debater con- tains material which has been contributed by all four classes in Wakefield High School. Thus, with the Yearbook, there is a feeling of privacy which is lacking in regard to the Debater. These are the principal reasons which cause us to feel that the choice of a Yearbook instead of a Debater has been a wise one. lt has been our earnest endeavor as editors of THE ORACLE to pro- duce a commendable publication which will prove both valuable and satisfying to the members of the Class of l933. Likewise, it is our sincere hope that this undertaking will prove to be a source of inspiration and assistance to future senior classes of Wakefield lligli School. -Lois Potter, Editor-in-Chief. Is the Alumni Association Beneficial? Graduation from high school often means the end of all school life and activities for many students. This should not be so. A graduate can-and should-remain active in school work as a member of the alumni. The school is the means whereby many lasting friendships are formed, and numerous helpful influences are presented. Why should not these friendships be continued and these guiding influences be retained to aid in the problems of later life? The alumni association is certainly a most efficient means of preserving happy memories. School spirit is a subject which is discussed so often that it becomes monotonous, but the alumni actually do promote this very helpful and much-needed quality. lf an undergraduate sees that the graduates show enough interest in their school to become active alumni members, he will naturally show more respect to the school and to school property. Page Five Aside from its other advantages, the alumni association also has social benehts. Surely there could be no more fitting social gathering than one made up of intimate friends and classmates! ln the preceding paragraphs, fellow classmates, there is ample reason why you should not entirely neglect your school activities after gradua- tion. For your own sake, and for the sake of your school, continue your school life as an active member of the alumni association. -Maurice B. Walsh, '33 High Seas Ahead We have sailed through the Harbor of our Youth and School Days. Soon we shall have passed all landmarks, and shall be adrift on the trying Ocean of Life. Our resistance to the small waves of obstacles on the hrst stage of our Voyage of Life will determine the manner in which we shall overcome the higher ones of the ocean ahead. Some of us have met our problems with our best efforts, others have been less conscientious and have done little more than was necessary-merely enough to get by. ln all proba- bility, we shall do hereafter just as we have done in the past, for the Man is merely the Youth grown up. The more determined type will not expect opportunity to drag him to his goal, but, like a ship, will put up steam, and sail in a steady, pro- gressive course to his goal. lle knows what must be done, and will be more pleased when it is done. Like a sailboat, the more careless, indif- ferent person will wait for the Winds of Opportunity to bulge his sails and set him on his way, Perhaps he will obtain success-more likely he will not. liven if he does, his method is less sure. lle has squandered days of calm while awaiting favorable winds. The heavy, repeated blows of the battering waves have had a telling effect, and, driven from his course, he has wasted even more time. lf he does finally obtain suc- cess, he will have to abandon his happy-go-lucky ways or recognize fail- ure. On our first stage we have encountered periods of calm and periods of storm, but the storms have not been extremely serious. We have been protected by land on either side of us. At times, unable to meet our responsibilities ourselves, we have relied upon our parents or our friends. Very often, they have willingly helped us. In this way, the waves have had little effect on us. Once in the ocean, however, there will be no shores to greet us when the Waves of Responsibility are battering our sides. We more fortunate ones may pass a few islands on our voyage- may have someone upon whose help we may still rely. But most of us will not. We shall have to oppose the obstructing forces unaidedg and, above all, we shall need Courage to stick to the wheel.

Among these were four veterans of last year's victory team. With these veterans and other excellent material, which was composed mostly of sophomores and juniors, we anticipated another successful season. The hrst game with Rindge Tech was one of the most exciting games of the season, with Wakefield, the underdogs, winning in the last few seconds to play. The following week the team journeyed to Norwood and dropped the one and only game of the season. The f'dopesters claimed that over-confidence on the part of the players was the reason for our defeat. In meeting Arlington, faithful followers of our team shook their heads in doubt as to our chances of winning against such an excellent team. However, each player fought as never before, and when the final whistle blew, the hnish was a deadlock, a scoreless tie. For the second consecutive year, our rivals, Melrose, held us to a tie score. This game furnished many thrills for the fans. Both teams struggled tirelessly to win the game. Each took advantage of the open- ings gained. Although our tlrst team was composed to a great degree of under- classmen and inexperienced players, much credit should be given to the second team, as it was these players who rounded the hrst team into con- dition to meet its opponents. There is a wealth of material on this team for the coming season. On looking ahead, we can see that the Team of 1934 may easily enjoy a winning season, as only four letter-men will be lost through graduation. lt is well to remember that Wakeneld will have the hardest schedule in its history next year, so we wish the best of luck to Coach Healey, Captain-elect Bliss, and the squad of 134. - Track 1931-1932 At the Hrst meeting of the Track Team Edward Lally was elected captain, and lgnatzio Bonfanti was made manager. The team had a very successful season, defeating the following schools in dual meets: Lexington, Woburn, Winchester, Belmont, Beverly, and Melrose. ln the Annual Middlesex County Track Carnival held at Belmont, Wakeheld was the winner and again won the cup. ln the Mystic Valley Meet the team ran only a few of its men, but came out in second place. On june 4, the team went to Fitchburg. where it participated in the State Relayg here the undefeated 880 Relay Team CEdward Lally, Bill Bliss, Donald Duley, Bill Russellj was able to break two State records. Wakelield also won the Class C title. William Russell, '33 Page Fifty nine Plggc Sixly D Z 1 Q 2 O 1 Z H Zh L-A o 9 o 9' D :E o C zu flu '-S uf C 2 az E hi O . .EU 53 o.

G Bottom Our Bands The school year of 1932-1933 has been a year of much activity for the Wakefield High School Boys' Band. Enrollment in the combined bands, Beginners, junior, and Senior, has increased from forty last September to about ninety-seven at the present time. Mr. Eanck, an able band-master, has worked increasingly for the progress of the organi- zations. As many of the boys are beginners this year, it is not to be expected that we should have a finished band. But in two years' time. we should have a band which will be second to no High School Band north of Boston. The Senior Band has made a satisfactory showing this year, having played at the football games as well as several outside concerts. The Senior Band loses several veterans through graduation this year, but plenty of recruits will be available from the junior Band.

Wengen, Baseball 1932 The 1932 baseball nine did not enjoy a very successful season. Upon consulting the scorebook, it would seem that Lady Luck had desert- ed the Wakefield team entirely. Game after game, we discover, has been lost by one run. Upon further investigation we hnd that in several games one unfortunate play has decided the outcome of the game. The team, however, did win a few games and managed to hnish the season in hfth place, ahead of Winthrop. At the end of the season, several of the Wakeneld men were near the top on the list of batting averages. Two of these boys, Bert Barry and Dave Mildram, were selected by the coaches to play on the All-Mystic team in its game with the All- Suburban nine. Prospects for the I933 season look bright, as six of the regulars from the 1932 team are returning to play another season. It had been rumored that both Melrose and Arlington were going to leave the league. But now that spring has rolled around again, we Hnd that both schools are playing as usual. Hence we conclude that the league will continue with just as many good teams and players as ever. David Mildram, '33 Basketball 1932-1933 Basketball championships are no longer new accomplishments for Coach Homer Shellenberger and his teams. When this past season was completed, Wakeheld High had won another Middlesex League title, the fourth in live years. This record speaks for itself, and all the praise we could gather to bestow on the team and its coach would be mere repeti- tion of all the Hne things that have already been said. A remarkable thing about the team this year was the fact that only two seniors, William Richardson and Charles Climo, were included in the entire squad, the rest being under-classmen who will return next year. A somewhat gloomy aspect appeared near the beginning of the sea- son when it was learned that two veterans of the previous year, Roland Bliss and Captain Walter Comee, would be unable to compete because of injuries received during the football season. However, their positions were filled by capable substitutes, and a well-balanced team soon appeared. We congratulate our champions and their coach, and wish Captain Red Field and his next year's team all possible success.

This year, as in the past two years, Miss A. True llardy of the faculty was the coach, and contin- ued her custom of having an entirely new cast for each performance. l'll Leave lt to You introduced to us the Dermotts, an English family who are facing hnancial ruin until Uncle Daniel, a sane but sophisticated gentleman, appears, and in a highly original and humorous manner makes a happy ending for everyone. The plot is hlled with surprises, and the young actors and the coach duly deserve the many com- pliments given to them. The class is appreciative of the work done by the various departments in helping the play to be a social as well as a Hnancial success. Hi-Y Club The Hi-Y club has had a most successful season under the leadership of President William Russell. The membership is the largest that it has ever been, and the club has undertaken many worthwhile projects. Per- haps the greatest was the establishment of a new school paper, The Ili-Y Buzz, which is edited every week. Before Christmas the club borrowed the school truck and collected clothing and toys for welfare work. They also helped the Inter Nos Club buy Christmas dinners. The Hi-Y has conducted many other affairs. After the football team's successful season, the club held a dance for the players. The club also assisted the team when it ran a dance to help defray expenses. ln addition, a faculty night was successfully held, at which time the teachers were entertained at dinner. At the end of their season, the Hi-Y Club met in a joint meeting with the lnter Nos Club in the high school audito- rium. After a banquet was served, dancing was enjoyed. The club has been fortunate this year in securing a large number of prominent men to address its members. lhe success ol the meetings has been due to the interest which the members have shown in their speakers. The retiring officers wish next year's club the best of success. The othcers of this year's club are: President, William Russell. Vice-President, Walter Comee. Secretary, Boit Wiswall. Treasurer, Roland Butters. Page Sixty six Inter Nos Report 1932-1933 The Inter Nos Club has accomplished much this year. We have had as our speakers. Mrs. Margaret Eggleston Owen, Mr. Howard Heavens, Mr. joseph Fanck, who also exhibited his water color paint- ings, Miss jeanette Learoyd, and Mr. Philip Nute, whose travel talk was illustrated by stereopticon and motion pictures. A home talent evening was greatly enjoyed by the members, as was our visit to the Hi-Y's cere- monial meeting. Instead of our usual three Thanksgiving dinners, we were able to send four this year, and we helped the Inli-Y with their Christmas donations as usual. A joint Ili-Y and Inter Nos meeting and banquet occurred on May 6, and a play was presented on May 15. At the end of May, a talk on the manner of running the woman's page of a daily paper was given, and later it was planned to entertain at the Elizabeth E. Boit Home. There have been two assemblies for the girls, with a speaker from the Curry School of Expression, and Miss Pauline Peterson, whose talk on the history of fabrics of ditferent kinds was illustrated by many lovely pieces. These assemblies were sponsored by the club. We feel that the season has been a very successful one. Marjorie Connell, Recording Secretary. The board for this year: President, jean Macdonald.

We doubly appreciate your co-operation with us in a year of doubts and perplexities. Since our hearts are hlled with gratitude for the educational opportunities given to us, we have decided to express our appreciation by a program lauding our country. With that purpose in mind, our exercises this evening are modeled upon Katharine Lee Bates' signihcant poem, America the Beautiful. O beautiful for spacious skies, For amber waves of grain, For purple mountain majesties, Above the fruited plain Walt Whitman, Singer of America, expresses this sentiment in his writings. To understand his theories, we must consider briefly his early environment. He came from humble farming and sea folk on Long Island, but spent much of his boyhood wandering about the city of New York. These surroundings secured for the poet a modern, constantly changing civilization, and provided his earliest experiences with nature. ln addition, he came of good stock. Both his paternal and maternal ancestors had served in Washingtons army, so that young Walt had free- dom in his blood. From his father he inherited a love of liberty and a sense of simplicity. To his mother, may be attributed his interest in 1'eligion and the world about him. The boy Whitman, who later became a genius, lived by the sea-whose mysterious music made him feel in Nature the presence of a friend, a mother, or a god. Many years after- wards, he recalled these pleasant memories in his poems entitled Sea- Drift and The Song of the Bird. As the birds sang, there dawned upon this impressionable boy the idea that he, too, was a singer and a poet. Later in life, he realized that the recalling and the recording of these experiences were greater joys than the experiences themselves. But his childhood came early to a close. When he reached his elev- enth year, he became an office boy and later a clerk in a lawyer's office, after which he began his journalistic career. At this time he exhibited a tendency to dream-a characteristic which the unthinking failed to real- ize was constructive, glorihed idleness from which many of his poems were born. Like his Puritan forbears, he did not smoke or drink-his interests were those of God and Nature-not the passing attractions of Man. For the rest of Whitman's life, although he worked occasionally with his father as a carpenter, his chief business was writing. Often, while he was supposed to be at work with his father, he was dreaming, finding material for his next chant. Page Sixty nine ln his somewhat desultory reading, Whitman came across such iotable men as Poe and Bryant, but it was not their works that shaped his future. What made him the man and poet that he became was no following of any hero or master, but his own peculiar genius, that apti- tude which enabled him to observe and even love all sorts of conditions, all types of people in the busy life of New York. Indeed this man, now recognized as the Father of true American poetry, associated by choice with common crowds, a desire arising from his intense love of, and belief in, democracy of the masses. For instance, he is said to have driven a coach a whole winter for a man who was ill and to have entered eagerly into the lives of the other coach drivers. Part of the material for his famous poem, l hear America Singing, wherein he described the songs of the different classes of workmen, was thus obtained. Despite his adaptability and universal interests, however, he was an individualist, both in action and in thought. During the agitation over the slavery issue, Walt Whitman was given a chance to test the permanency of his gospel of democracy and equality, and this opportunity made the man. lle went to Washington, where he as a poet, and Lincoln as commander-in-chief, aroused senti- ment against slavery. Later he served as a nurse in the Civil War. Since this experience was one of the most influential of his life, naturally it produced noble poetry. Out of his military experiences he wrote Dram Taps, My Captain, a glorious tribute to Lincoln, and his beautiful poem, Vigil Strange I Kept on the Field Une Night. During the war, he read to the sick who had fallen in battle, and was lovingly referred to as The man with the face of an angel. After the war he ventured West. This trip provided a title for one of his poems, Pioneers , Upon his return, he rejoined his father as a carpenter. And as poets have two great needs, experience and peace, he was quite indifferent to the hurrying thousands of fortune seekers going to the Far West. As time went on, Whitman grew more and more absorbed in his writing, in which he constantly emphasized his love for America and his appreciation of his country's grandeur. Naturally re- tiring, he said little about his works until his Leaves of Grass appeared. Now the peace and joys of his lonely weeks by the sea were revealed. At first, Whitman's language repelled conventional readers, who felt that his poems lacked both rhythm and rhyme, and that his ideas were too radical for his day. lle insisted that poetry needed a change, a strong diet of novelty, or it would become feeble. limerson came across the book and wrote to the then unknown author: I ani not blind to the worth of the wonderful gift of the l.ea't'es of Grass. l find it the most extraordinary piece of wit and wisdom that America has ever contribu- ted. l am very happy in reading it, as great power makes me happy. l give you joy of your free and brave thought. l have great joy in it. I find incomparable things said incomparably well. l greet you at the beginning of a great career. The eminent philosopher spoke truly. Today Whitman's genius is ever in the ascendency. Still another admirer said of him: Americans abroad may now come homeg unto us a man is born. Pigt bex enty Yet the creative spirit would permit Whitman no rest. The ever- growing life of New York was around him. llis easy gift for making acquaintances helped him to know humanity. As he was fond of music, he met many singers and musicians. Frequently, he visited his friends and told them stories of actual American life and beauty about which he wrote. What was ordinary to many was extraordinary to Whitman. In almost everything he found interest and significance, matter for wonder and love. He was seeing poems every day, seeing American beauty in every street, in every face, even in the faces of those from whom men shrank in fear or hatred. Life called for a man like Whitman to discover in a sea of wretchedness some island on which love could set its foot. The poet looked upon himself as a preacher of a new religiong he wanted to bring the newest thoughts before the uneducated. The English critic, Symonds, wrote to him: Who but you is the singer of love and faith in the new advent? liverything he wrote expressed his true Amer- icanism and his belief in a democracy of brotherhood, of compassion and charity, as revealed in his love for nature and humanity. As a singer of Americas beauty, Walt Whitman was the spokesman of a whole nation, the prophet and evangelist of a great idea: a democra- cy that atTorded opportunities to all. llis was the healthiest, loftiest voice of democracy. ' By imagination and vision he conveyed the spirit of democracy to the common people. As the voice of America singing of men and nature, and inspired by their hopes and ideals, he best POI'- trays his conception of an America the Beautiful in these lines: l hear America singing, the varied carols I hear, Each singing what belongs to him or her and to none else. May this thought of a singing world never be lost to American de- mocracy. Page Sex enty one Honor Essay by Elaine Knight Kenyon, '33 MARTHA BERRY, THE GPPORTUNITY LADY In that wonderful song, America the Beautiful, there is a striking line, God mend thine every flaw. And whenever I hear that song and that line, immediately there comes into my mind one person who has done her best to bring about the accomplishment of this sentiment. That person is Martha Berry, a daughter of the South, who, by combining her native perseverance and pluck, has succeeded in making America truly beautiful to multitudes of formerly under-privileged children of Georgia, where the mountaineers were living in ignorance and backwardness. And yet, strange as it may seem, these persons were descended from the purest Anglo-Saxon stock, gifted with sturdy bodies and bright, inquiring minds, but prevented by numerous barriers from advancing as they should. The tale of the early attempt to bring education to this illiterate peo- ple is similar to the account of the colonists' early struggle in the new land. Like the colonists, Martha Berry and her few assistants encoun- tered numerous, almost insurmountable, obstacles to their projects- hardships which would certainly have daunted one possessed of less courage or of a less noble ideal. Starting in with a Sunday school which she held in a tiny log cabin for the mountaineer children, she became fired with the desire to bring education to those who, because of poverty and other drawbacks, were unable to go after it themselves, and soon, by dint of much labor and privation. she was able to start. To us Northerners, who, since the days of our early Puritan fore- bears, have had near at hand the facilities with which to satisfy our desire for education, it seems impossible that in a locality composed of a million or more American people there should not be one single institution for the spreading of learning. Most of us did not even imagine that there were a million totally illiterate persons scattered over the whole United States. Therefore, it comes with a considerable shock to us that there are a mil- lion gathered together in one community, hemmed in by their mountain fastnesses and peaks from the outside world. Were it not for the endurance and fortitude of this brave little woman pioneer of the South, however, there would still be no decrease in the illiteracy and retrogression of these natives. Through her efforts, both in her school in the South and in behalf of it in all the other regions of the United States, she has gone far on the road to the successful culmi- nation of her plans. Out of little or nothing, she has managed to create an educational system which is one of the finest-a system solely for the use of these poor Southern whites. Yesterday where there was darkness, today there is light. From those formerly neglected mountain waifs has emerged a new race, bright and clean, modern and independent, whose glorious aim is to spread the germ engendered by their noble teacher, Martha Berry, among the re- maining Georgian mountaineers, many of whom are grown men and women who are even more backward than their offspring. l xge Sexenty-two The Opportunity Lady, as Miss Berry is tenderly called by her youthful charges, has done much to change the occupations of these peo- ple. Where formerly many were too lazy to buckle down to earn an earnest living and engaged in the prohtable business of manufacturing lnoonshine for the consumption of their city neighbors, today, because of the improved methods taught by the Berry School, which contains an im- portant agricultural system, the farming industry is growing more popu- lar. This school tries not only to instill culture but also to teach the practical arts, an accomplishment which enables the students to return to their homes after graduation with a knowledge of how to earn a living for themselves. So important and so far spreading has been this work that even presidents of the United States have visited the school at Mt. Berry, Georgia, to inspect its famous buildings, students, and mistress. They are greeted by an impressive sight: where before there was but a clump of iude cabins surrounded by wilderness, underbrush, and dense trees, now stand stately buildings led up to by a broad, winding road, lined with great trees. One feature of the school, however, has not changedAthe co-opera- tion of the pupils in their work. All the cooking, washing, scrubbing. building, planting, and laundering is done by the pupils themselves. Everything on the campus, in fact, has been built by the pupils-the school, the dormitories, the irrigation system, and the dairy. The undying zeal and unflagging patience of Miss Berry stand supreme in her endeavors. ln the early days of the school when funds were low, it was necessary for Miss Berry to do a great deal of campaign- ing in the large cities. Having very little money, herself, she often was in a state of actual hunger and want, but in spite of this discouragement she managed to keep on with her noble work. Perhaps the main reason for her being able to bear up under these adverse conditions was the fact that her hunger and thirst to see her boys and girls back at the school surpassed the crying needs of her own body. Miss Berry also had to combat the unfavorable criticism of her friends and of people in the outer world, who were hrmly convinced that she would soon tire of her strenuous labors and leave the work which she had begun so eagerly and joyfully. lt was the general opinion in the world at that time that young ladies weren't of much use other than as ornaments or social butterflies. ln addition, because Miss Berry had formerly been a leader of her social set, her so-called retirement from the outside world was thought all the more unfortunate. However, so strong was Miss Berry's belief in her undertaking, that as soon as it was possible she had the strongest, most invulnerable charter that she could contrive drawn up by her friend and legal adviser, judge Moses Wright. On her application for this charter, she was, however, given no encouragement by the judge. Martha, he said, you're going to have a difficult time making white boys feel that labor is not beneath them. Remember that one of the reasons for their backwardness is because they look upon so many necessary duties as only ht for blacks. Page Sex enty three Miss Berry's answer was, l'm going to make them proud of work- ing. Everybody will work together at the school. l'll take the best of the boys and put them in the dormitory and have them farm the land l'm giving them. They'll learn scientific farming and go home and help others. Remember that it means a lifetime devoted to the work-and it is problematical whether it will ever succeed, the judge warned. My boys will learn to live happily and can work to help themselves. They'll be the finest people in the world-and yozfre going to be a trustee. Make the strongest charter you can. l want these children and nobody else to be my heirs, was Martha Berry's reply. Thus began the Berry School of Mt. Berry, Georgia. Thus began the years of battle Martha Berry was to wage in an endeavor to place education within the reach of every poor girl and boy in the Southern Highlands. ln the words of The Opportunity Lady herself, The greatest joy of my life has been taking a boy from one and a girl from another neglected cabin to bring them into their own heritage, where edu- cation would lighten the way. Everyone cannot be perfect, few can be presidents, but to many who never would have had a chance, we have shown the way. Under the guidance of their leader, who has truly taught them all they know, the pupils who have entered this school have steadily devel- oped from ignorant, crude waifs into strong, independent, well-educated men and women, real American citizens. Therefore, it is not diflicult to understand, as Miss Berry herself expresses it, that the school is her life, that the red hills are her home, that the wind in the trees is her song, and that finally, therefore, a grave beside the school chapel must be her resting place-a resting place which undoubtedly will some day be known as that of one who has truly, under Gods guidance, mended Americas flaw by realizing her life's ambition, aptly stated in her own words: My life ambition has been to free the children of the mountain forests-to give them to America strong of heart, of mind and soul. I' lgc Sex entv-four Valedictory by Amelia Nliezwa, '33 HAMLIN GARLAND, EXEMPLAR OF AMERICAN IDEALS O beautiful for pilgrim feet Whose stern, impassioned stress A thoroughfare for freedom beat Across the wilderness! Today we commonly regard our country as flnzuriuz the lluazitifzil. Yet that title was not won without a glorious struggle to preserve Ameri- can ideals. Representative of the group most responsible for Americas beauty and cultural achievements-the Pioneers--is Ilamlin Garland. Unlike other authors, the Dean of American Letters, as he is often known, interprets an America the Beautiful built upon sacrihce, toil, and pro- longed hardship. He appreciates America's aesthetic beauty, but he reveres the stable qualities emanating from the examples set by our illustrious ancestors. Therefore, to understand the point of view of this noted American, we must glance at his early life. Hamlin Garland was born in the midst of hardship on the frontier of the Middle West-Wisconsin. His life was one task after another in which poverty and toil abounded. Years flew by, and still his pioneer father and mother uncomplainingly endured the discomforts of life. Their son, however, grew more bitter at lack of opportunity. This resentment deepened when he saw his neighbors housed in unshaded cabins in seeming desolation. Nevertheless, by privation and unending labor, the boy managed to secure an education of a crude sort. Since this new country offered no opportunity for a boy with literary tastes, Garland, upon his graduation from Cedar Valley Seminary, sought his fortune in Boston, the home of culture. Here he lived in a bleak attic room overlooking the Public Garden, Hbreakfasted for eight cents, and wore his clothes to a frazzle, but his head was held up and his manner was conhdentf' Since Garland had no occupation, he read in the Public Library, trying to conserve in every way his thirty cents worth of Ufood units. Finally Garland secured work paying eight dollars a week, part of which he sent home to support his parents. Through the interests of some friendly Bostonians, the boy was enabled to complete his college studies and to secure a menial literary position. From then on he found himself and became known as the leader of the literary realists. As such, he pictures truth about natures hardships on the frontier. Though he could see beauty in nature, he felt that nature had no pity on mang cultivating land, for instance, is to some extent frus- trating nature's plans. Nature is cruel, but each struggle won against her is an overwhelming victory. ln his writings, therefore, we Hnd nature portrayed in moods of tenderness and anger. Nature could and did devastate the settlers' crops time after time, but the Pioneers' persistence and patience were two of the ideals which built up the glorious West. The Page bex enty nyc lure of the soil, always present in the heart of a true builder, has been captured by Garland in his short stories. The love of home, the instinct of preservation, and the worship of goodness are other American qualities which Garland stresses in his writing. The portrayal of these traits has not been exaggerated by Garland. Though he hated the hardship of the West, he could not overlook its beauty, its freedom, and simplicity. For example, we Hnd him saying when he visited his birthplace: The warm, broad, unkempt and tumul- tuous West, with its clamorous movement, its freedom from tradition, its vitality of political thought, reasserted its power over me. Again he writes: The rain was still falling, sweeping down from the half seen hills, wreathing the wooded peaks with a grey garment of mist, and filling the valley with a whitish cloud. Naturally, as an exemplar of American ideals and as a lover of his country's beauty, Garland joined the revolt against the unreality and false standards of the sentimentalists. Ile was rebellious against the writers who depicted the frontier in words only of praise and glory. During the Nineties it had become his work to inform the people of the real conditions existing on the frontier. lle accomplished this aim by depicting true life on the plains. Main-7'raz'eIed Roads is a volume of his stories written in the shadow of defeat. These tales seem unduly austere to us now, but they were true portraits of his day. This book records the privations and difficulties of the Pioneers, our glorious ances- tors, who subdued the Midland wilderness and prepared the way for a golden age of agriculture. Within eight years, Garland had written Xllaiiz-Traveled Roads. A Spoil of Office, Crzrmzbfiiig Idols, and Rose of Dzrfcfiefs C00-ley, all widely different in theme and showing a marked development in style indicative of his potential creative power. xl Son of the Middle Border placed Garland at the head of the list of realists. llowever, he will be remembered not only for his philosophy or realistic characterization, but also for his painting of the frontier with the greatest understanding. His landscapes are unfading. There is always the tang of the sea- son in them. ln ,ff Son of the Middle Border, midsummer comes flashing back in a sentence or two: The bees were coming home heavily laden and crawling slowly into the hives. The level red light streamed through the trees, blazed along the grass, and lighted a few old-fashioned flowers into red and gold flame. Other fields besides fiction were opened to Garland. lle began work- ing up the road of literary fame with a few descriptive and critical articles. llis poem, Do You lfear the l'l07'l'L' of the Wiiidf, shows Garland's belief that, though man is dominated by Nature and has grown ragged, weary, and swarthy under her power, he can walk and be a man in the eyes of his fellowmen. Garland later made his greatest suc- cess in the short story field. Today he is recognized as the best local colorist of the Middle West. Strange as it may seem, no writer has encroached on his literary field, and so this man, Garland, leaves his work as proof of the beauty of struggle and the worth of character. llamlin Garland now lives in literary eminence as an exeniplar of American ideals. llis sincerity and patience in writing the true facts of l lgc Sex enty-six the West despite adverse criticism have led to his success. llis prose is hne art, though the material does repel some readers with its breath- taking frankness. Frequently, there is a good deal of burly humor of a native kind, as in Among the Corn Rows. There is also a certain coarseness and bluntness, and an indifference to the more delicate charms of style. Nevertheless, Garland is inimitable in painting indelible pic- tures ofthe nature he loved and feared in common with all pioneers. But best of all, he is a son of patriots who gladly gave up their families and went into the Civil War, some of whom returned with scars of battle on them, and others who gladly died to preserve an America the Beautiful. Like them, he has beaten a thoroughfare for freedom -not in the wilderness, but in the world of creative literature. CLASSMATES: This evening is indeed a momentous one for the class of l933.

Class History Chapter 1-The Discovery Everything must have a beginning, and the class of 1933 had its own on September 9, 1929. 'l'wo hundred and sixty-one strong, we invaded the strange, long corridors ol' Wakefield High. For about two weeks, the tratlic squad was kept busy piloting wild- eyed and bewildered Freshmen to their respective classes. We soon became accustomed to our new environment, however, and while the class settled down to hard work, Reggie Meuse settled down to grow a beard. At the same time as the entrance of '33, there were several additions to our faculty. Of course the boys were very much delighted with the arrival ol' Sergeant Danahy, who improved both their physical appear- ance and their mental state during the tirst two years of school. Many of the members ot' our class were prominent in school activi- ties. Ol' the twenty-three girls who entered the lnter Nos Club, jean lVlacdonald was appointed to the board of advisors. ln the musical or- ganizations, ten ol' our class joined the glee clubs and four joined the orchestra. We were not without our scholastic accomplishments, how- ever, lor one tenth ol' our class was on the honor roll. Many of the members ol' our class held their own against the upper classmen in sports. Some ol' the most prominent were: David Mildram, Leon Yeuell, William Richardson, john Callahan, joseph llaladay, Rich- ard Curley. William Russell, Walter Comee, john llennessey, and Stevens McDaniel. Charles Climo brought distinction to our class when he won the Basketball lioul Shooting Contest against veteran oppo- sition. On November 1, the Freshman boys were given a dinner and were introduced to the line meals and courteous manners ol' the lli-Y boys. june came at last, and we gladly threw oil' our title ol' interior Fresh- men to become dignified upper classmen. Chapter ll-The Settlement The beginning ol' the second year found 247 Sophomores greatly relreshed from our vacation and anxious to continue our journey as upper classmen. 1,156 I ighty-six The hrst thing was the election of the following ofhcers: President, john Lazzaro. Secretary, Eleanor Poster. Treasurer, Richard Lewis. Miss Butler was added to the faculty, teaching Erench in place of Miss McClenahan. Many of the members of our class were prominent in school activi- ties. William Russell was elected treasurer of the Hi-Y Club, and jean Macdonald was made recording secretary of the lnter Nos Club. Edith Doremus and Hazel Moses were also members of the Inter Nos Club board. Arlene Boudreau and jean Macdonald represented the class of 1933 on the Girls' Athletic Council. Robert Parker was Vice-President of the Boys' Glee Club. Many of the boys of this class were active in the field of sports. Some of the outstanding ones were: Walter Comee, David Mildram, William Richardson, Thomas Gleason, Richard Curley, joseph Haladay, and Charles Climo. When june hnally came, it found us ready to leave for two months' vacation before entering our junior year. Chapter lll-The Rise to Power Again we were ready for another year at school, assuming a more serious attitude by this time. We began to realize what was meant by studying. Outstanding events were preceded by the election of the following officers: President, William Richardson. Vice-President, Doris Spafford. Secretary, Dorothy Ryan. Treasurer, john Callahan. The school clubs also elected ofiicers. The Inter Nos elected Margaret Fitz as President. The junior representatives on the board were Hazel Moses and Edith Doremus. There were no meetings of the club because of the double session plan, but all girls were considered as members without paying dues. The board of directors carried on the club activities. In sports, particularly football, the boys came out on top. Proficient players were David Mildram, Richard Curley, Thomas Gleason, and Walter Comee. ln basketball Charles Climo, William Russell, and Walter Comee participated, and helped to win the l932 Championship Cup. The girls likewise did well in sports. The Athletic Council had for its junior representatives jean Macdonald and Arlene Boudreau. The social affairs started early and ended with the junior Prom. The Committee was made up of twenty-four, including the class ohicers. The committee was made up of the following persons: Page Eighty sex en j. Altieri E. Assenza A. E. Bauer E. Doremus R. Butters E. Grady W. Comee R. Hall H. Field A. Harmon W. Grace E. jordan P. Guarnaccia D. Lambert K. Hatfield j. Macdonald E. Lilley M Moore D. Mildram L. Potter B. Wiswall j. Robb L. Yeuell M. Roderick june 25, l932 was here before we knew it, and we again found a two months' vacation at hand. Chapter IV-The Reign With our ranks a bit depleted, but none the less conhdent, the class of 1933 entered into its fourth and last year. With the assumption of the natural conceit and mannerisms common to seniors, 204 entered into their busiest year of school life. This is the year in which many of our budding romances were formed-and were greatly encouraged by Oscar Mish and his Sentimental Syncopators. Early in the year the following members were chosen to assume the leadership of the class: President: Walter Comee. Vice-President: Ruth Hall. Secretary: Lois Potter. Treasurer: David Mildram. The school clubs also elected officers. The Inter Nos chose jean Macdonald as President, the Hi-Y obtained in William Russell an ener- getic and wide-awake leaderg and Robert Parker as President of the Glee Club guided this organization through a very successful season. With the help of David Mildram, joseph Haladay, Roscoe Delamater, Walter Comee, Robert llopkins, Reggie Meuse, Thomas Gleason, and Captain Richard Curley, the football team won a majority of its games in the last minutes of play. William Richardson and Charles Climo played an active part in the basketball team's winning of the Middlesex League Title. The members of our class on the baseball team were: john Callahan, William Richardson, Edward llaladay, David Mildram, Richard Lewis and Richard Curley. P age l ighty-eight The acting ability of our class was displayed in the Senior Play, IT!! Leave it to Yon. The cast of the first night was Lois Potter, Haskell Field, Doris Lincoln, Elizabeth Grady, Ronald Fitzpatrick, Olga Woronoff, Raymond Chartier, Alice McGrath, Virginia Purrington, and George Maher. On the second night, the play was successfully repeated with a different cast, including Eleanor Foster, Austin Stearns, Miriam Roderick. Dorothy Ryan, William Russell, Edith Doremus, Roland Butters, Helen Ayer, jean Halpin, and George Maher. The play was ably coached by Miss A. True Hardy of the faculty. The All American Dance proved to be one of the outstanding social functions of the year. The members comprising the industrious and successful committee were: jean Bowser, Marjorie Bullard, Virginia Cammon, Alice Carow, Alice Dalzell, Audrey Harmon, Catherine McManuis, Hazel Moses, Dorothy Ryan, Doris Spafford, jerome Altieri, Wesley Ball, Richard Lewis, Edward Lilley, Stevens McDaniel, Mark Newbegin, Robert Parker, Martin Shedd, Samuel Warner, and Boit Wiswall. Realizing the success of last year's Alcrrury, our class early in April elected the following Yearbook Staff: Editor-in-Chief: Lois Potter. Business Managers: William Russell, Boit Wiswall and Robert Parker. Assistant Editors: Eleanor Assenza, Marjorie Bullard, Roland Butters, Raymond Chartier, Eleanor Foster, Walter Comee, Daniel Pratola, jean Robb, Doris Spafford, Maurice Walsh, Freda Warner, Leon Yeuell, john Callahan, George Maher, llarold Mew, Gladys Parker, Florence Drinkwater, and Gertrude Eckert. Graduation is now near, and our school careers are almost at a close. Our class motto, WE CAN, WF WILL, in our minds, we are leaving our school with the wish that Wakefield High may always have classes as pleasant and energetic as the Class of l933.
