« Charles Edward Lamb During his long connection with Blake, Mr. Lamb has won the esteem and admiration of all those who have come in contact with him. He has built up a fine record of service to the school and has gained a wide understanding of boys and their problems. As advisor to the Senior Class this year he has helped us materially in all phases of our school life. His unflagging interest has encouraged us to establish an unusually fine record in scholarship, and his candid advice has helped us carry on all our class affairs in a most satisfactory manner. He has done all in his power to make this last year at Blake a pleasant and profitable one both for us and for the school, and we take this opportunity to express our heartfelt appreciation of his untiring efforts.

HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF 31 The history of the Class of 1931 began twelve years ago when Atkinson and Bovcy entered the first grade at Junior Blake in the year 1919, and now since those twelve years are completed it is fitting that we review our past activities at Blake. As our earliest members struggled through four years at the Junior School, four years with the anticipation of the future at Senior Blake, many new members fell in line. In 1920 McLane and Atwood entered in the second grade, and the following year marked the entrance of Robertson. In the fall of 1923 these five, along with a new member, Bosard, began their first year at the Senior School in the Prep” year under Mr. Wilson. During our Lower School years our class was well represented on the football and baseball team, for a spirit, which brought many victories over St. Paul Academy, was beginning to assert itself. Several new boys joined us in these years, and, when we entered the Upper School as Freshmen in the year 1927, there were eight who arc still with us—Atkinson, Atwood, Booracm, Bosard, Bovey, McLane, Robertson and Russell. In the fall most of the class went out for football. One of our number made the second team, while others played on the newly-organized coefficient teams. During the winter term the class took part in various activities. In Dramatics we were represented by Bovcy and Williams, who also gained a place in the choir. Atkinson made his letter on the swimming team, and FitzGerald was on the hockey team. In the spring McLane made his first of four letters on the baseball team, while others of the class tried out for tennis. As Sophomores we were again as successful during the year. Russell, Mac-Farlane, and FitzGerald went out for football. FitzGerald won his letter on the hockey team, as did Russell and Atkinson in swimming, and McLane, Wells and Atwood on the baseball team.
