Mr. Dauntless would be an appropriate alias for Cl1ris. Dauntless in sport, study, business, and love is this Loch- invar. He is the life of any party, game, or circunstance.

Her blonde pal, Freda, says that she is quite amiable, although her hair does slightly indicate a fiery temper. NORINE RETA DOWD "DowdieH Amherst, lN1ass., March 22, 1915. Future: Undecided. Tri-Ess Club 2, Chorus 2, 3, 4. Norine is the girl who slips so inconspicuously into her seat in Room 9 in the morning.

You think from looking at this Miss that she is reticent and shy. But that's where you're wrong.

He is as shy as he looks, but he reminds one ol the wise old owl who hears all and says nothing. We understand that he is going to Stockbridge School next year.

But he stumbled upon lN'Iay, month of gayety. He tripped over July, month of hreworks, until he met August, full of strange changes and moods.

Now that in itself is quite enough. But Catherine is also a talented artist. She is a steady scholar, and she made a good showing in the Junior Play. Catherine is one of those extremely fortunate people who already know where their bread and butteris coming from. GERTRUDE ALFREDA MALMQUIST "Gert" "Garth" Danvers, Mass., October 26, 1914. Future: Undecided. Gert has the most unruffled disposition our class lays claim to. She's the girl you can always depend on no matter what the circumstances.

This brown eyed, dark haired, buxom lass, who knows that the way to a man's heart is through his victuals, is sure to win some lucky Romeo. She comes down from North Amherst in the morning and only basketball can keep her after school. LUCY BARBARA MITCHELL "Clancy,' "Lund, Amherst, Mass., March 3, 1915. Future: Northampton Commercial College. Girls' Basketball 2, 3, 4, Tennis 25 Tri-Ess Club 1, 2, 3, 4, Chorus 4. We don't believe that Lucy is acquainted with the word "blue" when it pertains to a person's mood. Her merry "Hello" is known to many of us. Her face is always alight with a pleasant smile. Lucy, from all appearances doesn't seem to take life seriously yet, but maybe she is saving her efforts for some future time. ANNE ELIZABETH MONTGOMERY Amherst, Mass., June 14, 1914. Future: Undecided. Anne is so like "Montgomery's Roses" and yet so different from them. Pretty hair, fair complexion and delicate features give her a rose-like appearance. But hers is the rare beauty of the special roses. Added to this charm are her own personal attractions-for instance, her smile assuring you of her friendliness. 17 - X D f - 1 NPQFX A f - .

We were so sweet, so scared, so innocent, so determined to do just the right thing at the right time. After having received the words of sage advice from the Principal, we found ourselves in the corridors. The more timid of us decided that it would probably make less confusion if we should spot some daring classmate and resign ourselves to a game of "follow-the-leader" for a day or two. How the teachers and upper- classmen must have enjoyed those first few days! But they rather sat up and took notice when they saw with what remarkable wisdom we chose those we wanted as our leaders. Jack Trainor was President with Vic Jones forcefully backing him up, and upon Dave Parsons was thrust the duty of collecting dues. lt was with no little excitement that on May 10th we went to see four members of our class take part in the one-act play presented by the Dramatic Club. We shall never forget the ease with which Ray Landis interpreted the part of the Badman. And do you remember Art Bixby and Fred Nightingale as father and son in "Up the Sandyl' and Bob VVilson as the neighbor's boy in 'fSquaring It With the Boss?,' Although we had had a happy and successful year as Freshmen, we were not exactly sorry to move on and leave our vacant places to the class of '33, ACT I1 It was quite a treat to realize that, although we were still lowerclassmen, there was the whole middle section between us and the Freshmen in the auditorium. We took a deep breath, and with apparent unconcern, slid our burdens as a class onto Chris Keedy, the President, Es Schoonmaker, Vice President, and Dave Parsons, Secretary-Treasurer. And then, all of a sudden, we threw a Hallowe'en Party. There was high-class entertainment in the auditorium, added attractions in the rooms downstairs, and refreshments and dancing in the gym. Do you remember that touching fade-out scene with Art and his rose in 4'Not Quite Such A Goose?" No wonder the play took second prize in the play contest! Although we actually carried off none of the honors of the Prize Speaking Contest, Madalyn Howes and Chris Keedy distinguished themselves as up-and- coming orators. Our lucky star was shining over us during the debating season, for we won five points for the Stowell Cup by defeating the other classes. 31 sxxgi xi. D MII.

This prophecy comes from ltalyl And do you want us to tell you how we got it? You see, the Gold Bug Staff got acquainted with the Sibyl, a singing prophetess, who lives in a grotesque grotto in Cumae on the coast of ltaly. The Sibyl writes her prophecies on leaves, and scatters them all over her cave in the careless way of all geniuses. When you get over there, sometimes you find what you are looking for and sometimes you don't. CP. S. We did.D Well, one night Art and his faithful followers boarded a white elephant and arrived at the Sibyl's. Before we made the trip, we cabled the Sibyl that a famous group was coming over from Amherst High School to get some dope on what the members of '32 would be doing in the sweet "someday" and where they would hang their respective shingles. The Sibyl had the leaves with her prophetic words scattered all over the cave, and when we got there we had a real hunting party. You should have seen her cave-huge, lighted only by torches, incongruous shadows flitting here and there, queer, horrid noises emitting from nooks and crannies. Chris said, 4'Gee, isn't this a swell place for a Hallowe'en party?" And just then a bat brushed its wings against his face. We were all standing there talking to the Sibyl,an old shriveled lady, with clawlike hands,long flowing robes, and a crooked staff, and we hadn't noticed that Alfred Harris had sneaked away. Pretty soon he came back running wildly and shouting. ul-ley, listen to thisl Look what it says on this leafl 'Art Bixby, your renowned, illustrious statesman, editor, etc., is holding hands in public with Norma Shearer.'

IQAl?:gQ:W:,,,f- AS' - I , 7-I -1-- B Bzzyketbazll T THE beginning of the season, baseball prospects for Amherst High looked fairly bright. There were seven veterans returning from last year, four of them good hitters. The veterans were Tidlund, Wood, Bixby, Pihlman, Morin, Smith, and Captain Trainor. Captain Trainor, Dihlman, Smith and Ahearn alternated on the mound. Tidlund and Maturniak were capable cat- chers. Smith and Crossman held down first base. Bob Cramer played second. Trainor and Fulton took turns at third and Wood played at short. ln the outfield were Avery, Morin, Green, Kosakowski, Page, Darling and Bixby. Archie French was manager. Wood leads the team in stolen bases. Bixby and Dihlman have both hit home runs. A new Hampshire league was formed this year. lt included the following schools: Amherst, Arms, Deerfield, and Smith Academy. The scores of the first few Hopkins, Sanderson Academy, South Hadley games were against the Amherst team with losses to Deerfield and Arms. The team, however, is beginning to hit its stride and haS started a winning streak. The prospect for next year is bright since only three members of the team will be lost through graduation.
