Ginger, pep, personality these are only a few of the adjectives which descrihe Eleanor. She has smiled her way thru Classical and into the hearts of all of those who have come in contact with her. No social afhiir is complete without this agitator of the ivories, who has made Student Dances more danceahle. As Secretary of the class for two years, she has taken down notes land passed them, tooj and written invitations until we feel she is qualihed to serve as Secretary to the President. When the junior partner of Ike Er? Pahearn, Inc. leaves, we wish her much happiness, and know that Normal is getting a lwreakf' JOHN ANASTASIA ANNAPOLIS Alohn would make an excellent silent partnerv in a great firm, hecause ol' his tacit conduct. And yet he has great powers hidden hencath his reserve, which in time will help him in his rapid ascent to the top rung of the mythical ladder. His amhition no douht inspired hy his reading of Caesars Gallic Wars is to enter West Point. Speak for yourself, john! ANNA ANCCRA Two years ago this shy little miss came to us directly from Italy. She seemed to ht right in, and has distinguished her stay in Classical hy her good scholarship. We who are acquainted with Anna know her as an excellent little friend, always ready to give any help she can when it is asked for, yet too shy to intrude. Anna says she likes America and our school very much, hut some day she hopes to return to her heloved native Italy. s aaJ'?niW' THE CADUCEUS RICHARD ARMINCTON If I Had a Talking Picture of Youfhoo, the kind they have in the movies, you know that natural color kind. Really folks, it's not rouge at allg it's a genuine complexion-or a blush. Well, now that that's over, we'll see what else Dick has besides a line car and someone to share the front seat. Did you hear that tenor when the Glee Club sang? Wasn't he defefvine? Tenors are scarce, especially the blond type. No matter whether he displays his talent in the rain or in that other place, we know he's not all wet. CECELIA ARLINE BAKER Leaders Corps, CZ, 3, 45. R. I. C. E. Cecelia is the very little girl with the twinkling eyes, roguish dimples, and schoolfgirl complexion, who delights Miss Gregory's heart by never being late, although she must wend her way to school each day from one of our remote suburbs. Her contagious giggle, sometimes enlivening SR, often transports her classmates into outbursts of mirth, and shows that she certainly appreciates the spice of life in a large degree. Under her gay exterior, however, is an eager desire to succeed, which accounts for her place in Mr. Peck's division. Cecelia intends to guide the younger generaf tion in the paths of knowledge, after she receives her diploma from R. I. C. E. ABRAHAM BLOOM German Play, C4lg Dance Committee BROWN Step right this way and meet the philosopher of the Class of 1930. Our Abe may seem a quiet, modest sort of chap to the teachers and casual observers of Classical, but, oh, how he can act wise! CHe reads judgell Seriously, he is a linguist par excellence. His record in languages ranks among the best in the school. We predict much of this young man, with his rare combination of humor and intellect, and are proud to number him among our acquaintances. Our best wishes follow him when he enters Brown in the fall. ALFRED THOMAS BRADY Track, CU. Al is another of those of whom it can be said that girls and fellows are attracted to him. It is not hard to find reasons for his popularity: his Irish smile, his keen wit, and his pleasant and amiable character, all add to the ensemble of Brady's likable disposition. His leather heels always give us a welcome premonition of his arrival on the scene. His literary ability is certainly not meagre, for his style is original, to say the least. We conf fidently forecast his success in whatever he undertakes. - Y ..cf THE CADUCEUS MARY GORMLY BRENNAN COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY Everyone who knows Mary likes her. To scatter sunshine seems to be her chief aim in life, and her sunshine tonic has worked more wonders for the blues than any medicine we know of. Whenever any one has difiiculty in translating a Homer or Virgil passage, Mary is always ready to help unravel the tangle, even in the face of danger. Although she usually knows her lessons well, she is 11011 a grind in any sense of the word, as proved by her remarkable sense of humor and love of fun. Any one wishf ing to know the particulars about the going fishing epidemic in Room 6. better inquire of Mary. She probably can give you plenty of information, as she was the originator of that mysterious sport. We shall all Iniss our Pollyanna's cheerful presence next year, but we know that our loss will be some one else's gain. JOHN RICHARD BROMLEY Hockey, HD, Gift Committee. ANNAPOLIS jack is the quiet UD little boy in the corner front seat of Room 4. We may find him among a certain group of wandering musicians,-sCDear reader, laugh herejfbut more than that, he is a mathematical genius, and that very idiosyncrasy has won him an appointment to Annapolis. He is a generous, friendly fellow, and can be highly recommended to fill any position, but wege hoping he becomes an admiral. It's just what we expect of you, Iac ! CHARLES WILLIAM BROWN GENEVA COLLEGE Charlie is well known in our school, but he is most prominent in French literatureg in all our French composition sentences his name keeps recurring as petit Charles. As a matter of fact, he is petit, neither in stature, nor in mental ability. After a questionfwhich has arisen in class --f-has been discussed from all points of view and has presumably been exhausted, he always Ends another light in which to consider it. If Charlie clings to his guiding star in life as tightly as he does to his desk when he semifstands to recite, we assure him a bright future. Senior Play. R. I. S. C. RAYMOND GUIDO CALDARONE If all the good sports of Classical organized I society Riy would be an honorary charter member. Four years at Classical have worked great changes in our friend-for the goodffof course. In his early years, he was a supporter of the famous High School 'LHorse Laugh and has often bright' ened the Speech Correction Class of Room 4. During the last year, he has been a 'Ray' of cheer in Miss Horr's History class. But when all is said and done, Ray manages his studies in a businessflike fashion, a char' acteristic which will always leave a fellow Sunny Side Up. 'T5W QT! QE? THE CADUCEUS ALICE LOUISE CALDER Senior Play, Glee Club, C1, ZH. CONNECTICUT COLLEGE The twentyfseven minute bell has rung, still she is not in sight. Oh! Now it's eightfthirty. Senorita Alice appears on the scene. This seems to be a great game with Alicee -whether or not she can get into school after the late bell. However, besides reaching school and studying, this young lady has other interests: horseback riding, singing, dancing, and acting. Those who saw her excellent performance in the play presented by her English class will agree that she did not merely act her part she lived it. May she play her role in life as superbly as on our stage! ELEANOR LEITH CAMPBELL Basketball, CI, 3, 4jg Clee Club, CZ, 355 Swimming, C41 PEMBROKE ' .Elie is a rare combination of wit, carefree joviality, and sensitive appref ciation for the finer things in life. Each of these characteristics becomes prominent as the occasion demands. Elie's humor is responsible for at least half the noise in the lunch room. And who leads that group Of seniorial young women to the Freshmen Stagfline at the student dances? There is another Eleanor Campbell, howevernea constant friend, delicately symf pathetic and wholly understanding. This second Eleanor is truly as charm' ing as her delightful Hrst self. The fact that she may enter social service indicates a philanthropic heart. ARTHUR EVALD CARLSON Fencing, C2, 3, 4X Soccer, C3Q5 Hockey, C41 BROWN UNIVERSITY Tall, broadfshouldered, and having in general the build of an athlete, Art appears dangerousg but again the Rict that appearances are deceiving, proves to be true, for a more docile and likable chap can hardly be found. Despite the fact that he is always ready for a joke, practical or otherwise, we find him conscientious about his studies, a characteristic which has aided him in attaining a good scholastic standing. While captain of the fencing team last year, he brought fame to Classical by winning the City Championship with the foils. May he never be foiled by the iIItricacies of life! GERTRUDE MARIE CARLSON Gift Committee, C4Q, Chairman. PEMEROKE Take a sunny smile, a pair of big blue eyes, a little honey, and some warm impulses, and what have you? Not Magnolia, as the songf writers put it, but our own little Gert. Always ready to step, laugh, or sing with the best of them, she is seldom found unattended. If, perchance, you should happen to find her Seat vacant during the third period, don't be alarmed. She is probably in Room SR, having a little tetefaftete with Miss Hoyt. If you'd like to put yourself in the same class as Heracles, gentle reader, just try to get a look at one of her reports. Eh bien! There's no dearth of steadfast friends for you here in Classical, Gert. s sJA3 E T THE CADUCEUS MARGARET CARTER Margaret's one of many girls Who lend a helping hand, And also, let me tell you, On the tennis court she's grand. For when this Helen starts to play The balls whiz all around. Her friends in school will tell you so---A A perfect peach, they've found. SAMUEL JOSEPH CHESTER Orchestra, Cl, 2, 3, 41. PROVIDENCE COLLEGE There are violinists and violinists, but none can touch our Samuel. He is the concertfmaster of our orchestra, a position won by his skill in handling the fiddle. Innocent and attentive in class, industrious in and out of class, he strives to obtain the marks worthy of a Classical student. He is often seen with his pals, Cohen and Grossman, cooperating with them in the preparation of some diflicult lesson. Next year Sam will enter Curtis' Institute. Take a good look at the future Kreisler! ELIZABETH MARY COCHRAN GIBBS Chuck full of fun, overflowing with laughter, and sparkling of eyef-A these are some of Betty's attributes. Her acquirement of so many true friends is a result of her pleasant mannerisms. Although Betty does not admit it, we have a faint suspicion that she is especially partial to Chemistry, except, of course, when exam time comes around. Betty is not certain as to what she will attempt after she leaves Classical, but wherever she goes, we shall not forget her. DAVID ELMER COHEN Among the favorites of a certain teacher of German, there is noted one David Cohen, who revels in mocking this teacher's efliciency zeal. It seems that he does not believe in taking life too seriously a trait uite . 1 q natural in one so carefree and happyfgoflucky. David loves to argue f o ten proving his point by the use of his wonderful memory. With the aid of his disposition and will power, he will doubtless attain success after his departure from Classical. 1 'iN 10 THE CADUCEUS HAROLD COHEN Basketball, C115 Soccer, CD. BROWN Somehow Harold always manages to get more homefwork done than any one else, although he has not as much time to spare. Perhaps he does it when the boss isn't looking. Whzitever his method is, his fine scholastic record during his four years at Classical has been crowned by receiving a Summa Cum Laude key. One day Harold gave a monologue after the fashion of Graham McNamee, and Mr. Paine rushed in, fearful of missing part of the HarvardfYale football game. This, according to us, should be the deciding point of his career. Imagine: This is Harold Cohen, of the National Biscuit Company network, announcing. HOPE CECELIA CONNELL Glee Club, ARMY MEDICAL SCHOOL Next we come to Hope, a quiet girl, but one of genuine quality. Her motto is a true friend is a best friend, and she surely lives up to it. Hope claims that Vergil is her favorite study, which is quite unusual, for most of us would say that Vergil is far from being our most cherished sub' iect. She is very much interested in ships, so don't be surprised to hear of her piloting an oceanfliner some day. But this will be only a sidefline,4for Hope is going to the Army Medical School, where she will train for nursing. We know that she will do a great deal of good in the world with her conf soling words and cheery smile. HERBERT WILLIAM COONE Glee Club, f4j. BROWN Coone is the unassuming genius of whom we frequently hear that he has attained the highest mark in the Senior Class in a Math. or English exam. He seems to win A pluses, with such modest facility, that we won' der why we aren't so fortunate. No need to say more on this subject: a Summa Cum Laude pin and an active membership in the Room 6 Window' Raising Corps, betoken his attainments and his popularity. Always friendly and helpful, we know that he will be welcomed in whatever niche he carves for himself in the future. MIRIAM LOUISE COOPER Baseball, CD, Tennis, Cl, 2, 3, 4b. WHEATON Boyish bob and cheeks of red, Eyes of darkest brown, Plays the banjo, plink, plank, plunk, And often wears a frown. She likes to do so many things, It's diiiicult to say. just what her future's going to be, But we'll hear from her some day. I 1V an BX-Z' THE CADUCE VIRGINIA MARIE CRAIG Gift Committee, German Play, Q4D. ,roy BOSTON UNIVERSITY When Virginia's time for choosing came, The Classical register won her name, Now, having done four years' hard labor, Her brain is keen as a twofedged sabre. Her freedom gained from these solid walls She now is ready for life's pitfalls. May the lifeflong sentence that might be hers Be served in a prison of silks and furs! JOHN HENRY DAVIS Track, C455 Cross Country, fl, 2, 3, 41, Captain, MD. R. I. S. C. Bang! They're off!! And jack Davis, Classical's agile leopard, nimble as Mercury, is in the lead. His record as a track man is an enviable one, and his popularity among his fellowfrunners has won him this year's captaincy of the squad. If Miss Roberts, while in Scotland this year, tells her pupils of a certain American student who can decipher the correct meaning in the most obscure literary passage, she is unquestionably referring to Jack. Why not sing On To Victory for him when he sets out for Kingston in the fall? RODMAN DAWLEY R. I. S. C. Quiet, debonairrff the real hefman and gentleman type. He is an enigma even to his friends, who cannot understand his profound center of thought. Yet Rod is a general favorite, and is a subject of whispered discussion among the fair sex, Cwhatever that may be these daysl. He inf tends to honor State College with his presence in the fall, and when he has become an agricultural expert, we expect a chicken which will lay a golden egg. Then he can advertise as a udivining Rod! EDWARD ANTHONY DE SANO BosroN Umvaasirv just one of the members of the noisy four in Room 6. Eddie is a fast worker, not only in his studies, but also with the weaker sex. Perhaps the fellows of Room 6 would pull in on time if he would stop cracking jokes in the boys' lunchroom. Eddie can be seen almost anytime, roamin g about in the corridors with Amy or Fal alongside, and Quatroc in tow. The butcherfboy from Mt. Pleasant plans to enter Boston Univ' ersity, shortly, to study Blackstone. 5353 '234bW .JE T H E C A D U C E U S LAWRENCE EDWARD DESIMONE junior Playg Soccer, fl, 2, Zjg Football, C-lj. PROVIDENCE COLLEGE Ah, the great corridor baritoneffLarry of the golden C?j voice. He's so handsome, girls, that all the boys envy him. We don't know why he wasn't the hero in the class play in which he participated, he's such a Hne actor. Des is the highfschool hero in more ways than one, for he plays both football and soccer. It makes no difference what this fellow attempts. for with that smile and handsome visage, how can he help being successful! MARIAN ELIZABETH DRABBLE Social Committee, H355 Volley Ball, CU, Photograph Committee, Q41 SMITH COLLEGE Popular and then some! efWho? Why, Marian, of course! She is an artist at drawing, dancing, and studying. As she saunters through the halls of dear Old Classical, one cannot successfully hold a conversation with her. Why? Oh, because she is so busy greeting this one with a smile and saying Hello to that one. And no wonder, for who can resist such a mixture of the sunny and the serious? ICEABELL ETCHELLS R. I. C. E. Who is the fair damsel who rushes into Miss Sheppard's room every morning at 8129? She is none other than Icey Wea nickfname which belies her real nature, for she has a sunny and funfloving disposition Wan attribute which is substantiated by the smiles and laughter which are so vitally a part of her. Ice does not have much time to spend in cheering our teams on to victory, but she is always delighted to hear of her Alma Mater's success in anything and everything. She expects to enter Normal School next September, where she will learn to become a dispenser of knowledge. GAETANO EDWARD FALCIGLIA L Clee Club, C4Dg junior Play, OD, Debating Club, Cl, 2, 41. You never hear Fal talking about himself, and, as a result, no one seems to know much about his personal affairs. We are wellfenough acquainted with him, however, to know that he is a mighty fine fellow, whom we are glad to claim as a friend. All who recall his fine work in the Junior play, and his portrayal of the Doctor in one of the Senior English plays, will agree that his acting is to be commended. If Fal has nothing better to do, he is liable to wander up to Glee Club, whence his clear tenor straightway vibrates on the air. A likable, allfaround good sport. Classical will sustain a real loss when he leaves. , fSf ,JJQ 1ie jQiWs THE CADUCEUS 13 NAOMI FLOWER ' K , Behold the smiling flower of ou classl And Naomi surely lives up to her surname, as President of t ,rt C b, an' one of our most ardent students in drawing, 'The' ' lt of ma iii ers happy, especially on the dance lloor, is mtivsywffer, sh I ays as time to stop and chat about anythingffg init e new X icher's long assignments, to the result of the lawqt all gan .5 .omi's cheerful disposition has left its mark on the hearts of all who Zhbisv her. She leaves Classical with the best wishes of the entire class. MARGARET PATRICIA GANNON Basketball, CD5 Baseball, CZD. R. I. C. E. The morning sun refused to shine, But we cared not a bit, For Margaret came smiling in, And she's the girl with it, X She's always so goodfnatured, And never very formal, We'll look for her the next few years, While studying at Normal. ALBERTA YLLIS GAVIGAN Basketball, Club, Cl, 2, 4Dg Volley Ball, I'Ieigho, ev ryb y! f' 't? e- - Sure! I'll do it!

To those in the know, isn't it a g and glorious feelin' to have the weight of fifty lines of uncomprom ing Virgil lifted from your shoulders by such willing hands? Alberta is a confirmed optimist, a good student, and a true comrade to those fortunate enough to be links in her long chain of friendship. HELEN MARGARET GLEN X English Play, C4Jg Supper Committee, PBMBROKB one has ever heard a teacher say that to Helen, but you'll wonder why, when we tell you that she comes from way up North in North Providence, where red cheeks seem to grow. In one of Miss Day's English plays, she took the part of the blushing heroine very prettily, and didn't so much as flicker an eyelid when the handsome hero nearly sat on his tall silk hat. Helen often romps to school in a very sporty little Chrysler. just watch her roadster climb the hill of knowledge! Miss Glen, please try to be in your seat before the 8:30 bell. No E tQ1E' THE CADUCEUS ALTHEA KATHARINE S Tennis, Cl, Z, 3, 4Dg V lle Qall, e Club, Cl, ZH. CAR A o r.

Here's hoping fand almost prophesyingl that your airfcastle will not crumble, Al, as so many of ours are destined to do, but will fulhll your most extravagant dreams, and that in time we shall view with a certain sense of pride and possession the exhibited works of one of the most sterling girls of the class of '3O. MORRIS GORDON Orchestra, Cl, Z, 3, 41. Paovinimcn COLLEGE Morris -fquiet, easyfgoing, and industriouslis numbered among the more reserved members of the class. His modesty forms a pleasing contrast to the more boisterous. As he often appears to be dreaming, one wonders of what -or perhaps, of whomfhe is thinking, as he gazes into the dis' tance. For four years, he has demonstrated his musical ability as a member of our orchestra. In the line of original translations, Maurice would cause Vergil to bemoan the fact that he ever composed the Aeneid. Selff effacing and considerate, he has gained the respect of all. GORHAM HENSHAW, JR. EDWARD GROSSMAN Football, Q3, 4Dg Baseball, CZ, 3, 4Dg Swimming, fl, Zjg Basketball, C31 Corumam Cast your optics on Eddie, our premier athlete. He seems to hold the magic keys to almost every path of success. His ability on our athletic teams cannot be overestimated. Eddie's name has graced the honorable mention roll in all major sports. As a result of conscientious work in all his endeavors and his pleasing personality, he has enjoyed great popularity throughout the school. Eddie's readiness to answer difficult questions in all studies still continues to surprise us. We expect to hear of him later knocking down the sizzling grounders at the Hot corner, or plunging through the line for first down on some college team. Luck to you, old top ! BROWN Toutes les emmes annent lesYWhat? Oh! I thought you said page two hundred and two. Henshaw, I'm afraid your mind is elsef where. Have you a secret sorrow, or a guilty conscience? QDoZing again in French class.j Gorham has a faculty for sleeping with his eyes open, which is very deceiving at times. Being a regular Beau Brummel, he is usually dated up far into the future. An expert at tripping the light fantastic, he consequently has no trouble in finding a partner for a dance. Keep treading lightly, pal, and you'll miss all the hazards and muddy places in life! ' NW sNfP'aiiiWi'in1 T H E C A D U C E U S MARTHA FLORENCE HEWITSON Swimming, C3, 415 Basketball, C415 Glee Club, C3, 415 German Play, MOUNT IELYOKE Martha is a true ClasS des being 21 good scholar she is an ardent sport Rm an ci ii ' any branches of athletics.

W the 'ww' ducts a class forum, or captains a swimming meet, or ' s poetry, she's a quality girl. Martha hopes to go to Mount Holyoke t year. After that we may hear great things of Miss Hewitson, physical training instructor. HELEN MARION HICKEY Glee Club, C21. R. I. C. E. Who doesn't know Helen, a tall, dark, and handsome brunette? It is said that Gentlemen prefer blondes, but in this case the statement is proved all wrong. I wonder what those intensive looks mean, which are cast in a certain direction during the Spanish class? Ask Heleng she knows. Although she is always ready for social events, a good report seems to appear at the end of each quarter. She serves as a good reference bureau for finding out where Kamchatka, IndofChina, and Mt Ararat are Perf haps she will be teaching about these very places some day, for she hopes to enter R. I. C. E. DAVID HORVITZ Orchestra, C415 Caduceus Board, Advertising Manager, C415 Advanced Orchestra, C41. M. I. T. Behold Little Davy, our Advertising Manager, who overwhelms the Goliaths of customers with his mighty slinging of the bull, He is a wonder at juggling Hgures and formulae, a genius at chemistry, a wizard at French, and manifests an able proficiency in everything he undertakes. A Cum Laude pin is eloquent testimony of these facts. Among his many LISSCIZS is a jovial disposition, which goes a long way toward making and holding friends. His mathematical talents will be further cultivated and enlarged at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. HELEN HOWARD Basketball, Cl, 2, 3, 41, Captain, C315 Volley Ball, CZ, 415 Baseball, C415 I Field Hockey, C415 Glee Club, C3, 415 Tennis, PEMBROKE - Helen is one of our star athletes, the mainstay, as well, of all our teams. As she never misses playing in a single game, she has a large share in whatf ever victories we win. However, Helen always finds time for her studies, is in the First Division, and is the kind of a girl who is always willing to lend a helping hand to a less fortunate fellowfclassmate. We shall soon be reading in the papers that Helen's athletic feats are adding fame to Pembroke annals. 16 THE CADUCEUS GIBBS LOUIS CHARLES IRVING BROWN Louie has a keen sense of humor. He proved it when he brought a rope to school the day of an examination fe-so that, if the latter was too hard he could hang himself . . . or perhaps, the teacher. His pet dish is mathematics, and he would like nothing better than to sit down before a table loaded with math delicatessen and devour all the mantissae. Have you heard of his latest modihcation of Darwin's theorygthe evolution of polynomials? Teachers seldom say anything in Louie's presence that is not challenged by him. And once he won his argumentg the boy certainly deserves credit. We appreciate it, Louie! HARVARD one of the foremost lawyers of the country GEORGE FRANCIS JORDAN, JR. Dance Committee, Swimming, 13, 45. R. I. S. C. George is one of the gentlemen of the class who has a heart from which noble sentiments spring like sparks from an anvil. He is a jolly all weather friend, capable of making a way through a world of obstacles. Every one has his ups and downs, but George specializes in ups He can give a detailed summary of the best shows in town, and is a popular boy at social affairs. Lets give a Yeafa, Rah!

PARENSEM KARIAN Glee Club, Pansy's dimples have won her many a friend in Classical. Her keen wit is ready to enjoy any remarks passed by her classmates. She is also one of our artists, elevated, by popular consent, to the position of sign' painter of her homefroom. She does not spend all her time, however, drawing and mixing colorful paints, for she adores dancing. This is her chief delight. When a social comes along, Pansy's first question is, Good dance music? All right, I'll come. French holds a great Riscination for her, in fact, if her plans are successful, she may cultivate the native accent l in Paris, after leaving Classical. FLORENCE KELLEY Glee Club, C415 Baseball, C21xGerman Play, C41.

Now we come to a shy, retreating lad, who holds the admiration of the whole school. His versatility in the Held of sport has made him a general favorite of both sexes, but though he is the subject of animated discussion among the fairer sex on many occasions, his bashful nature keeps him from becoming a lady's man. jack is in reality a rough and ready hefman, as many of his opponents will testify, and these hefmen are hard to understand. As the movingfpictures require this type now, surely jack will wind up as a hero! Hasta la vista! THE CADUCEUS WALTER LOUIS KENDRICK Caduceus Board. NORTI-IBASTERN UNIVERSITY Kendrick, Kullberg Er? jacques, Inc., Manufacturers of Wise Cracks, jokes, Witty Remarks, Etc. If such a company were possible, the aforementioned trio would certainly be among the leaders of this branch of business. Bud Kendrick is known to all his associates and confederates by the unusually pungent quality of his humor, expressed not only in his speech, but also by the art of drawing, in which he excels. His cartoons have gone a long way towards making this edition of The Caduceus successful. Perhaps by combining these two abilities, drawing and inventing humor, Buddy will some day produce sheets for our Sunday papers! EUGENE HOLMES KING Track, C2, 3, 45: Social Committee, C3, 4j, Chairman, C415 English Play, C4jg Stage Manager, German Play, C4j. ARCADIA UNIVERSITY Holmesie expects to become an aviator, on the strength of the hit his uniform made in the soldier play, but we think that's just a little bit over his curly head. He has, however, put in much ground practice during his active career on the track team as pole vaulterg but once upon a time he tried to leap a fenceg that's another story. His has been the guiding hand behind our many successful C?j student dances. As Chairman of the Social Committee, he can be seen any third period considering weighty matters with Miss Hoye, Rice, Warren, Singleton, or any other who hapf pens to be around. We wish Holmesie all the success in the world at his lofty profession, but we hope he doesn't become too much of a high flyer. WALTER FRANCIS KING French Club Committee. BROWN This petite script will introduce to you one of Classical's most ubiqf uitous personages. Walt takes a keen interest in everything pertaining to school affairs, has hosts of friends, a gentlemanly demeanor, and that saving sense of humor which is required to make a success in the diihcult pursuit of knowledge. King has earned the commendation of his com' fades and teachers, alike, for his fine scholarship. He is one of the reasons why this year's French Club has made such a good showing. He is also a colonel in the library brigade, where he is often seen with his brother officers of that illustrious company. So Inultifminded a fellow should go far on the pathway of life. We extend to him our best wishes that he may have no punctures on this most difficult journey. ETHEL ELIZABETH KNOWLES Glee Club, C4jg junior Play. CONNECTICUT Resembling her part in the junior Play, Ethel is the kind of girl one likes to have around. As the nurse in the play, she devoted most of her time to appeasing both Falciglia and Davis, but her spare minutes at school have been divided between the Glee Club and the cheering squad at games -especially Hockey games. Even more outstanding, however, is her perfect attendance record, for she has not missed a day since that eventful September morn when Classical iirst received her. We cannot help being proud of our future student at Connecticut. 3922121 Wf'iNf'iN THE CADUCEUS ESTHER KRIKORIAN German Play, C4J,' Baseball, QD, Glee Club, Q4Dg Baseball, fl, 21. R. I. C. E. Hence, loathed Melancholy. Esther and gloom, according to our unoilicial records, have come in contact very few times, and on those rare occasions the former has chased away the latter tout de suite. We have never recorded an instance of Esther's hailing to assist a classmate whenever she has had the opportunity. Indeed, more than once she has been, figuratively, a lifefsaver! It will be a delight, in the distant future, to follow the advice of the old autograph album, when you are old and cannot see, put on your specs and think of me, and in retrospect relive those most enjoyable hours spent in your company, Esther. RICHARD HARRY KULLBERG R. I. S. C. Not a long time from now, you may enter a theatre to hear a great organist, and in all probability it will be our own amiable, easyfgoing Dick. His after-dinner speeches in the lunch'room spread laughter and decidedly unique remarks far and wide. After completing his course at our venerable institution, he will attend State College, to prepare himself to withstand the buffets of this cold, cruel world. Adios, Dick! PHILIP CARL KUSHNER BROWN Phil s long record of A s with a few B's interspersed here and there, is shown to Freshmen and others of that class by a little gold key, which Mr. Peck gives to good scholars, along with ice cream, punch, and cupcakes. Phil's record was so high that he received two cupcakes. His personality' rating is higher, if possible, than his scholarship. He is always ready to help a pal, and although he may be heard ofttimes exclaiming that he hasn't looked at the lesson, he has never been known to flunk a recitation. He is commanderfinfchief of the library invaders, and spends many afterf noons there in research work and examination of the feminine patronage of that institution. We are sure that the world will appreciate his friend- liness, kindness, keenness, and adaptability as much as the class of '30 has enjoyed this combination of good traits. DONALD THOMAS LAMON Caduceus Board. BROWN Don is another supporter of that medium through which the dark corridors of Classical are brightened, a pleasing personality. He is most efficient in the art of syncopation, and had it not been for him, our dancing lessons would have been less successful. In spite of his devotion to music, he is very sincere in his studies, for never does he go to class without full preparation, a broad statement in view of the fact that his absences have been few. We proudly acknowledge Don as the composer of our Classical March, which we hope will echo through the corridors as long as this venerable edifice remains. maffbc mm THE CADUCEUS LUCIENNE MARIE LAVALLEE Basketball, fl, 2, 3, 415 Valley Ball, C315 Glee Club, Cl, 2, 415 Treasurer, Art Club, Chairman, French Clubg German Play, 1415 Photograph Committee. R. I. C. E. Take more than a casual glance at the accompanying photograph, for you have before you one of our unusually versatile classmates. Lu is a musician, athlete, linguist and artist. Those who heard her tickle the keys at the German Christmas Play and the Division 4 Play, agree that she is an outstanding pianist. A certain group Cmum's the word1 is also indebted to her for some most enjoyable-if not timely-impromptu selections. A toast to our Lady of the Ivories! HOWARD ERIC LIND R. I. S. C. If you were an employer, searching for an ambitious, wellfgroomed, businessflike young man, an interview with Howard would convince you absolutely that you would End all these priceless qualities in him. His zeal in his studies is like that of a rising young business man. A love for fun, geniality, and a tendftofbusiness attitude make a likable chap of him. As Howie has done extremely well at Classical, he will undoubtedly conf tinue to do so at R. I. State College. RUTH MACRAE LISTER Orchestra, C3, 415 Supper Committee, C41. CONNECTICUT Ruth is the young lady who Piccolo Petes in the orchestra, on Mon- day mornings with her trusty flute. There's something in the song about high notes and low notes, but the high notes of her scholastic career are just as outstanding as those of the flute. Arriving here from North Provif dence at about 29 minutes past eight every morning, we don't have much chance to talk to her before school, except for a few Hurry upsf' but at lunch and after school we can readily understand why her four years at Connecticut will be very successful. AMERICO DOMENICO LONGO Soccer, Cl, 2, 3, 415 Baseball, fl, 41. P. C. In every class there are one or two mystery men of whose life and achievements we know little. If a musical name denotes musical talent, perhaps Longo will give us a lead. But we can judge only from his Cmarvelous?1 base voice, which we hear at our weekly gatherings in the hall. Although he delights in singing rests and bellowing forth at unexpected moments, he has the right spirit, and means no harm. Our Longo is eflicient, to say the least. May he carry on when he enters Providence College, in the same spirited fashion. y aJffTKW THE CADUCEUS IRVING RICHARD LYMAN Cheer Leader, C315 Track, BROWN May we introduce to you our future famous surgeon? Some time ago Lyman decided there was a dearth of redfheaded tonsilfremovers, and resolved to do his bit to fill the vacancy. He is sure to be as popular with his patients as with the students at Classical, thanks to his elfervescent personality and pleasing disposition. His high scholarship has won him the approval of the faculty, as it will merit the acclamation of his fellows in later life. May your diagnoses always be correct, Lyman! DOROTHY MAY MACQUARRIE BRYANT AND STRATTON While the students of om 5-bless their dutiful little hearts are deeply engrossed in concei t 'on over geometry originals during the afterf lunch study period eac , , t ir train of thought is suddenly interrupted by the sque' ing of r o ate fdarved door and Dot's entrance into our midst. She me ' ely r acss erself in our favor, however, by beaming a most e i , allfenvelopin smile upon us. The reason for Dot's tardiness is, e takes so ubjects in Commercial, and, judging from her marks QV' ookkeepiflgl typewriting, she is proficient in her studies there. Dot's Classical edh ation, coupled with her secretarial training, will undoubtedly make her a most eflicient private secretary to some fortunate executive in the rapidlyfapproaching future. ANNA RITA MANNING Dance Committee, C435 Orchestra, fl, 2, 3X Leaders Corps. R. I. C. E. Behold one of the most beloved girls in our class! One look into those deep blue eyes has often been the cause of sending cares afhiding. Anna is also the owner of a smile which poets have made famous, and which has won for her a host of friends. Another of Anna's enviable possessions is her sunny disposition, which is felt by all those who come in contact with her. Her love for dancing has resulted in her attendance at all of Classical's social activities, to which zest is added by her presence. Anna intends to finish her education at R. I. C. E., after which we know that she will be the answer to many a little C?j boy's prayer. KATHARINE MARY MCCARTHY Glee Club, Katharine's keen appreciation of humor, as well as her own skill in repartee, has won her many friends. A smile a day seems to be her motto, for often you can find her laughing at some bright remark made by a class' mate. Take a friendly tip and don't try to match wits with her, unless you want to be worsted. She is uncertain about her future, but wherever she goes, she will continue to brighten the day for her associates. y'S3xN5? EQ? THE CADUCEUS MARGARET ELIZABETH MCCARTHY Margaret, Katharine's other half, resembles her sister in many ways. To many of her classmates she appears to be a very meek student, but her friends realize that this impression is but a dupe. When school is out, or during the lunch period, she adds that extra bit so necessary to social gatherings, humor. Art circles will have the pleasure of her charming per' sonality after she completes her high school career. She will gain many new acquaintances in the years to come, but her classmates will not forget her effervescent bonhomie. WILLIAM JOHN MCGOWAN Orchestra, CZ, 3, 4jg Gift Committee, A Zeusflike spirit of calm is apparent in all of this young man's underf takings. When he gets up to recite, there is no quaking, no gobbling of phrases, what he says is concise and accurate. Once learned, a formula or an irregular verb never escapes him. To leave a task in his hands, is to see it accomplished, a flrct which was demonstrated remarkably well in the way he farmed the revenues for the class gift. Even while your lips denied him, your hand stole into your pocket, to find its way unerringly to his, with the necessary amount therein. These characteristics find an outlet in the even, restrained technique of his violinfplaying. Can you imagine any one like this making a failure of life? Of course not! KATHLEEN AGNES McKAY Glee Club, MD. PEMBROKE Think, for a moment of all the songs and poems written about Kathf leen, and then shift your attention to our own Kay. Doesn't there seem to be some connection? It takes such little imagination to visualize a person in that mood writing a beautiful sonnet, using Kay as his subject! French heads the list of her favorite studies. Academic difficulties form no barrier across her path, for Kathleen and perseverance work hand in hand. May you, when you become a dignified pedagogue, have countless students of the same sterling calibre as your own. MARY FRANCES McKAY PBMBROKE Glee Club, C425 Caduceus Board, HJ. 'LWhereupon, the highfminded Mary, after deliberating well, rose in the assembly and spoke winged words, saying, 'Oh, ye fashionablyfclad Classicalidae, it isl' No one murmurs against her decision. It is futile to argue with Mary, for she will surely convince you that she is right. And she really is, as her Summa Cum Laude record tells the world! Yet in spite of her intensive, systematic studying, she always has time to lead the fun. How lucky the students of Pembroke to receive this happyfmerryf maker! And how lucky the profs to have to scan her alwaysfperfect papers! E THE CADUCEUS ALICE MARY MCKENNA R. I. C. E. Alice has been suitably rewarded for her conscientious work through' out her high school course with the Summa Cum Laude. Her meek, quiet mien is rather deceitful, for deep within her there is a fountain of joy which spurts up when least expected. She can parlez francais like a true Paris' ienneg so a few years hence we shall probably find her teaching in her Alma Mater. to hear him relate his spectacular feats of the gridiron-and it won't be long JOHN FRANCIS MCKIERNAN Football, C3, 4jg Track, C415 Baseball, C4jg Clee Club, C4Dg German Play, C45 BROWN This big mass of muscle is his father's pride and his mother's joy. He will inevitably be a great football star, some day, as his work for dear old Classical is characteristic of such a fine fighting spirit. He has a good scholastic record, and a bevy of pals to boot. All his old classmates look forward to the day when we shall gather together, as tired business men, now l DONALD MELOON MIDWOCD Tennis, Cl, 2, 3, 4jg Track, C3, 41. Don is that long, lanky fellow, who is so well known and liked in all his classes. When called upon, he usually drags himself from the abyss of his chair as if weighed down by all the cares of this world. Then he answers in a sepulchral monotone. He seems to be ever a victim of Cupid's dartsg his ajfaires de coeur are always subject to change without notice. In spite of these propensities, and maybe because of them, he has been very pop' ular at Classical. May his personality make as deep an impression at Brown next year! CHARLES DAVID MILLER Orchestra, Cl, 2, 3, 4Dg Clee Club, CD5 Senior Play, C4j. GENERAL ELECTRIC SCHOOL Were it not for the fact that satyrs are supposed to be slender and sylphlike in form, our Charlie could easily substitute for the mythological Pan by virtue of his remarkable clarinet playing. We would not want him to become a Pan, anyway, we'd miss him too much around school. His genial countenance and rotund corpulence can never be overlooked. On account of these attributes he was made guardian of the sacred lunch counf ter, a post which he amply Hlls. He may be seen any day handing out straws with an air of great philanthropy. All joking aside, Charlie is to be envied for his hosts of friends, his happy nature, and general happyfgof luckiness. y Nf3Q Q : THE CADUCEUS CHARLES MOSS Track, C3, 4lg Swimming, C3, 4j. BROWN Charlie has the face of a business man, and in this case appearances are not deceiving, for he is one of our lunchfroom cash jugglers. Few salads, cookies, etc., have passed his cash box without being paid for OJ -- and well paid for at that. But moneyftaking is not his only forte, he inf dulges in chemistry also. What awful mixtures he has concocted in his day! In fact, we notice his influence in the lunchfroom! In the future, let us hope that, according to the proverb, the evil influence of a rolling stone does not gather our Moss. ADELMA MARY MOTT German Clubg Dance Committee.

CAl's friends know why she's called thatj We told her that she had better not go to Hollywood, since some movie producer would snatch her away from us, for with her looks, together with ability to sing and dance, Hlmdom would covet her. And popularffwhy that's no name for it! Alice is kept very busy with a steady line of invitations to parties and dances. Her career is undecided, but, as she is an A stu' dent in history, she may be a professional historian some day. Who knows? R. I. C. E. Arcy, as she is known to most of her friends, is not only the youngest, but one of the intelligentsia of the class. If you can't quite get that funny part in Vergil or Homer, ask this young lady's aid, you may be sure of cheerful and beneficial assistance. History seems to be her favorite study, as any third period finds her in 6R, doing extra reading, When she leaves Classical she will continue, ftogether with many of her present friendsj, to absorb knowledge at R.

Well, in our own senior class we have a girl who is a combination of all three, and a perfect peach, besides the kind that piles nine or ten into her Lin Tizzie, Cwhich is a Nessexj, and wishes she had room for the other seven who constitute the Classical cheering squad, rooters, and audience at every game. lf cups and trophies from camp mean anything, a fencingfmatch between Art Carlson and her would prove very exciting, as both are champs.

Athletically speaking he is a twofletter man, having won fame in football and track. Did you ever see him overloaded with books? Ask me another? Yet he manages to pass in all his studies. Since Danny excels in themefwriting, some day we may hear of him as an editor or perhaps a poet. He has not mentioned his plans for the future, but we know that he will be successful in whatever he undertakes. Strut your stuff, big boy! MILLICENT EDNA PAIGE English Play, C42 Caduceus Board BATES PsssstfBuzz Buzz!

NIGOL PARAGAMI AN Nigol came to America a short seven years ago from farfoff Armenia, but he is not at all in his element. He should have been born in the Middle Ages, when knighthood was in flower, for he has been known to vent his knightly wrath upon almost every one in school. His quick mastery of the English language and American customs makes him a genius. The summing up of this fellow's character may be included entirely in the words ugood sport, this is the very essence of everything in an allfaround good fellow. Here's a bow to you in your future dealings, Nigol! as PKWQQA THE CADUCEUS GORDON LEONARD PAUL Orchestra, Cl, 2, 3, 4D R. I. S. C. A sixffooted troubadour is always envied, especially when he's agreeable, generous, and talented. During the last few years, Gordon has been one of the mainstays of the Classical orchestra. His manners and habits make him an excellent chum. There's a good deal of schoolfspirit in him, too. We see him and two of his sidekicks at most of our discouraging football, baseball, and hockey games. Gordon's prospects in the engineering field are indeed bright, for Classical has produced not a few engineers of note. So give this little boy a hand! MARGUERITE LOUISE PEARSON Glee Club, fl, 2, 3, 415 German Play, C41 MOUNT SINAI HosP1TAL Marguerite has entertained our class for four years with her dry humor and witty remarks. Man earful situation has been changed to a cheer' ful one by her peculiarly a ropriate wisecracks. How could we face those delinquents ai 'lnum le scoldings without Marguerite to cheer us up? Althou she. is sually a rather timid soul, that august gentleman, Edmund B e, hel o terror for her. She proudly displayed an A on her report aft - the s e, which inspired instant respect in us for her ref mark l clear rception. When Marguerite graced the German play with r dqliglltful singing, we discovered another of her talents, a charm' ing v ice. Her ambition is to be a nurse. We know that her wit, sweet voice. and logic will help her to succeed in her chosen profession. JOHN RAYMOND PEARSON Caduceus Board, C41 R. I. S. C. It seems to me that some one once said, Swedes have square heads. That may or may not be so, but if it is, Ray's corners are filled to capacity Wand not with ivory, either. Here's the kind of a fellow, girls dream about and fellows envy: big, clean, honest as the day is long, clever as they make 'em, and a live wire. Why, he has his finger in everything: HifY, De Molay, Church work, Caduceus Board, solid geometry, athletics, dances '-fewhat's the use? Words fail. He's just one of us, and we know what kind of niche he's carved for himself in our hearts. RUTH CLARA PEARSON Orchestra, QD, Caduceus Board, Q41 Ruth is not janet Gaynor's twin sister, nor yet her double, altho she would pass for either with ease. Quiet and collected, she never seems ruffled, and so far as we know,no one has ever seen her hurrying. Every once in a while, she disappears -whither, no one seems to know, but these periodical hegiras must be pilgrimages to the source of wisdom, for she comes back prepared in every subject. Ruth is a modest wearer of a Summa Cum Laude key, a tribute in part, at least, to her outstanding originality.

BROWN Words seem weak and powerless when one attempts to describe the character of a person like Lee. He is the original exponent of the Brighten the Corner where you are spirit, but he doesn't conbne himself to corners. His wisecracks, original translations, and rare poems, have made him known to many a delighted and hilarious assemblage. He has his serious side, as his intimate friends, who have found him a true pal in time of need, will tell you. As saxaphonist in the jazz orchestra, member of the Social Comf mittee, and more especially, in the arduous post of EditorfinfChief of The Caduceus, he has given devoted service to the class of '50, which owes him its deepest gratitude.

Wally's like a Greek temple, strong, handsome, and dignified. He's certainly been a pillar of strength to our class. Upon his sturdy shoulders have rested many of the responsibilities of the Senior Class. He is behind every activity, and to his great credit, it may be said that never has one of his projects been a failure. Withal, he has found time to become a famous football star and captain of the team.

Who will ever forget those mst endfruns, those powerful thrusts through the line, or that swift sprinter's dash to first base? In addition to these Herc is also a superlative basketball player. But he is not only a famed sportsmang he is known to his intimates as a good scout and a fine pal. To the classes of later years he may be remembered only as a famed athlete' to us he will always be associated with the highest kind of friendliness and comradeship. GEORGE POPKIN y Q'vjiWQfSW 2 THE GADUGEUS HOWARD EATON PIKE DUKE UNIVERSITY Tall, blonde, and bluefeyed, Howard is the despair of young ladies and teachers alike. Credit is due him for his noble bearing up under diflif culties in one of the English Plays. He played the role of villain very creditably, although villains are popularly supposed to be dark and mousf tached. Messieurs Pike and Batchelder have a little game that they play in Room 6 f--Dick opens the windows, whereupon Howie pulls a little chain, thereby keeping the temperature of the room well above zero. Friend Howard is Ike of the partnership, Ike and Pahearn, Inc., who well, we give up, you guess. BROWN George isn't reserved. He just doesn't know what to make of a wild bunch of seniors who go tearing up and down the corridors, or make a beef line for the lunchroom when the bell rings. He is the kind of a fellow that forms a sort of anchorage. He's like a mountain, or the foundation of a great building. Things may rage around him but he stands firm. While others fool away their time, he takes out a book and gains precious moments. Well, George, the man who can stand immovable in a time of stress is the man who is appreciated. just hold on to your poise, you'll have no cause for worry.

Every Wednesday he wears a hat, and parts his hair on the right. But this is nobody's business. Ken devotes much time to Boy Scout Activities, and it may interest you to know that he holds an office not to be sniffed at.

BROWN Folks who judge another's stature by the length of his name would, I'm afraid, miss their mark in guessing johnny's size. But size doesn't mean a thing, for what he lacks in inches he more than makes up for in gray matter and mental ability. In geometry, especially, he learns his theorems as if he had written the book himself. We might mention the fact that he wields a pointer like a rapier, and woefbetide the unfortunate triangle which Riils to parry his thrusts! If he employs whatever weapons he takes up in life's duel as readily as he does his pointer, we feel certain that life will get the worst of the encounter.

So humorous is he that scarcely does a day pass without a teacher's laugh, induced by his witticisms. His arguments will live in the history of the school long after his departure. Milt intends to enter Providence College in the fall, where he will certainly add to the honor and respect of Classical. MILTON GEORGE SCRIBNER Tennis, Cl, 2, 3, 41. BROWN Behold our future Tilden. Scribby has faced many a tense battle on the courts for dear old Classical. His success in tennis has been equalled only by his acumen in his studies, in which he is a shark. Milt further shows his ambition by patronizing the Public Library exclusively and frequentlyg in fact, he has almost become one of its fixtures. Next year he will venture further into the realms of knowledge by laboriously toiling up Waterman Street Hill. We hope that when he has attained the heights he will not forget the classmates who suffered with him at Classical. fiwy THE CADUCEUS MARION ETHEL SHERMAN Glee Club, C2, 3, 41.

Captain Wally Pianka, although nursing a broken arm, was always ready to lead his men into the thick of the fray. At the first game with Cranston, the Classicalites put up a game fight, and, although beaten, their spirit was not even weakened. On Columbus Day, the Classical team walked off with the annual victory over Warwick to the tune of 19'O. As captain of the winning team, Wally was presented a genuine football by the city of Providence. To give all the deserving heroes due credit is everyones desire: ExfCaptain Sollitto heads the list, with the enviable record of never having been outfplayed by an opponentg Vacca's selection as a member of the Scholastic Honorary Roll, proves his efliciency as a grid man, Captainfelect Billy Kanelos, our fighting Greek, deserves a word of praise, Dick Batchelder's versatility will long be remembered, Joe Cusick, as fleetffooted quarter' back, carried the ball like a Trojan-sometimes down, but never quite out, Kelly, Grossman and Barsamian, the Three Musketeers of Classical athletics, ranked exceedingly high as backs, Mac McKiernan had a faculty for catching stray passes, anywhere, anytime. His kicking equalled his pass' catchingg Billy Noon more than made up for his small stature, by his application of flying tackles, Sweeney, the biggest man on the squad, wielded his weight like a catapult. With Paulie Sollitto at center, Mignone had little chance for service, but his display in practice proved him a coming star. Let's hope '30 brings developments. SWIMMING fi When the swimming season began, it seemed as if Classical was destined to have a contesting team that would be sure to score high. Many, however, soon tired of the stiff practice, so that finally only six or eight would report for sessions. As it was, we had a point winner and State Champion among us in Captain C. Pease, who won the forty yard dash in the City Championship Meet. His time was 23 seconds. johnson, Paddock and San Souci did some good swimming, and Ben Harriman, the manager, was a sure point winner when his athletic heart forced him to retire to the sideline. Our entries for the City Meet were Paddock, johnson, and C. Pease, the latter honoring us with six and onefhalf points. On the whole, if irony of circumstance had not hindered, Classical might have had a more sucf cessful team. TENNIS At last Classical's Tennis team has reached its goal. Smashing through all other combinations, her racketfwielders whitewashed every opponent except Commercial, when Captain Lazarus def faulted to Captain Sweet of Commercial. In the finals of the Tilden Cap contest, the finest sort of tennis was played, and the outstanding match of the tournament was won by Goldman of Classical, opposing Garland of Tech. Goldman's opponent was far outclassed to the tune of 8 to 0, thereby winning the Tilden Cup. The championship team consisted of Captain Lazarus, Eddy, Goldman, Fitzpatrick, Ettlinger, Quattrocchi and Scribf ner. As only Quattrocchi and Scribner will not be available during the 1930 season, prospects for retaining the Tilden Cup look very bright indeed. More interest is being shown in tennis every year. With the Tilden Cup as an incentive and the championship team intact almost to a man, we can afford to be optimistic.

Now there may be seen in the Trophy cabinet a prize which should be an inspiration for the future. placed second, and only a few points prevented Piccolo from getting the third cup.

Dick of Tech won, Carlson Classical 9 Hope 0 BASEBALL Eddie Enright, Coach of basketball, was selected to prepare a ball team for Classical this year, he has assembled an efficient machine composed largely of veterans. At catch we have joe Cusick, the nonpareil. The pitchers are McKiernan, Sackin and Paquin. Mac is a veteran of last year's campaign, Sackin was a reserve hurler last season, and has improved greatly, Paquin is a recent acquisition from La Salle, and gives evidence of knowing his stuff. At first base we have Stretch Cooper, and how he can pursue that elusive spheroid! At the keystone sack there is no other than our jack Kelly, who is playing hne ball this year and seems slated for the All Interscholastic Team. Captain Eddie Grossman holds down the hot corner with accurate and deliberate fielding. He is also a heavy hitter. Barsamian plays the short field, and very seldom does a ball elude his rasp. In left Held roams our beloved joe Ace Roierts, never missing a fly. Billy Noon, our little champion, who plays center field, aids materially with his good hitting. He is also very fast on the baselines. Coach Enright has a ood supply of right Helders. McKier- nan may be found there picking daisies when it isn't his turn to pitch. Longo also is a clever per' former in right garden. Among the prominent subs are Rotenburg, Jundonean, Chark, Fitzpatrick and Murphy. The team as a whole, with good pitching, a fine infield, and a talented outfield squad, seems destined for a first division berth. f'51ik?Y fW3ii5f:?Y f3'?Qii33w:5f5?3'm3i5fff93Yj'2i53a.51527?fai5fS EW Pifiiiifff 926313222-V 921231 44 THE CADUCEUS HOCKEY SQUAD BASKETBALL SQUAD xN a sJJfiNs.Cf w..fTQx'k 'ik s.X aiW THE CADUCEUS 45 BASKETBALL To Coach Eddie Enright is due much credit for evolving a basketball team out of the difficulties which he faced. Among these were the scarcity of experienced men and the paucity of new candif dates. His task was also rendered severe, as the team had to practice in the Esek Hopkins Gym. Notwithstanding, Eddie had a creditable organizaf tion assembled at the opening game, when the team did not do as well as it had on the practice floor. Eventually, the boys bolstered up and won a game from Cranston. In spite of the enthusiasm over this victory, the team went into a slump, which lasted throughout the season. In the eight weeks of battling, the quintet distinguished itself by indomitable courage in the face of bad breaks. Classical's hopes for the future are grounded on the fact that only Captain Kelly, Sollitto, and Jacques are graduating. Next year's team may be recruited from the following: Haslehurst, Sackin, Barsamian, Rotenburg, Chark and Rosen. HOCKEY Our hockey season was not as successful as in former years. Tom Casey was the only available veteran, but Coach Motta mapped his campaign with an eye for the future, using many lower classmen. Captain Casey, with Paul Sollitto, covered the defense positions: joe Hindle, at center, and Jack Cavanaugh and Pruny Ettlinger, constituted the first forward line, while the second consisted of Bromley, Anstey and Fitzpatrick. Our two power' ful defense men gained honorable mention on the All Interscholastic Team. Joey Roberts, who tended the nets jealously,gained All State Honorable Mention. This boy ought to put Classical on top soon, with his snappy cage guarding. We sincerely hope we may have a championship team next year. SOCCER The Classical High School Soccer Team of this year showed a remarkable improvement over pref vious years. For the first time in four seasons there was a full team out at every game. This fact shows that soccer is a coming addition to the list of Classical sports. Nick Verdi, captain of the team, was our heaviest kicker and the best man on the forward line. Longo, who played on the outside, was a stonewall.Who could get by the little kicker from R4? Although the team is losing several veterans by graduation, Verdi, Longo and Rice, yet there is much good material among the jun' iors and Sophs. Paige, a junior, showed great form. We expect great things from the Soccer Team of 1930. TRACK Classical certainly had more than its share of bad luck this year, but the purpose of the sport, to instill a love of good sportsmanship, has been ac- complished. In four meets Classical scored. At Kingston, Brown, our crack freshman athlete, saved us from a shut out, tying for second place in the high jump. What would the team do without Red Davis? He won events in each meet and would have placed in the 100 yard dash at Kingston if he hadn't pulled a tendon. Credit is due Allen, C. Pease, Batchelder, McKenna, Smith, McCabe, Lazarus, Rotenburg, Brotman, McLaughlin, Totten, Sakasf kos, Montecalvo, Driscoll and Harris, who did their best for the Purple and White. We hope to square ourselves by making a creditable showing at the two remaining meets. Although several veterans will be lost by graduation, we still have the nucleus of a good team, which should bring Classical its share of praise next year. WTS 46 THE CADUCEUS GIRLS' BASKETBALL SQUAD X scfyfw THE CADUCEUS 47 GIRLS' ATHLETICS BASKETBALL The junior and Senior Basketball teams have had a most successful season with Gertrude Maclver and Lucienne Lavallee, as respective cap' tains. The City Championship was snatched away from the Juniors in the finals by the Commercial Seniors, but Ethel Barnes, Mary Beane, Gertrude Maclver. Harriet O'Neil, Virginia Rice, and Dorothy Richardson played a mighty line game always. The Seniors, composed of Eleanor Campbell, Margaret Carty, Helen Howard, Lucienne Lavallee, Pauline West, and Ardell Wheat were stopped only by the Commercial Champions. Lack of space prevents us from telling you what a big asset they will be to college teams next year. SWIMMING In the Preliminary Swimming Meet, which was held at the Olneyville Boys' Club Pool, with all four City High Schools competing, the Classical girls, under the captainship of Martha Hewitson, made a fine showing against the speedy Hope Champions. Martha, besides being a fast swimmer, is one of the cleverest divers Classical has ever had, and brought glory to her school when she received three 9's--the highest grading possible for a dive. Incidentally, she was the only girl in the four schools to be thus honored this year. The relay team consisting of Captain Hewitson, Dot Greene, Ellie Ode, and Ruth Whitaker placed second, coming in but a very few seconds after Hope. Lydia Allen, Shirley Battey, Eleanor Campbell, Barbara Fisher, and Gertrude Maclver, all did some fine swimming, so with the invaluable aid of Mr. Barton, of the Olneyville Boys' Club, next year's team ought to win laurels. TENNIS As usual, the fall tennis tournament proved interesting to a large number of feminine wielders of ye raquet, but the juniors staged a thrilling setback, when Dorothy Richardson defeated Ruth Lister, Senior Champion, for the School Championf ship. To win the Junior Tournament, Dot was vicf torious in a hardffought set with Gertrude Maclver, another hardfhitting Helen. Belle Strauss and Virginia Past, Sophomore and Freshman Champ' FIELD In this year's Held hockey team, under the able leadership of Miss Eleanor MacCleod, the coach, a fine spirit prevailed. Luthera Myra, the captain played a great game as right inside, but an even better one later in the season, as goalie. Ardele Wheat, the speedy center, led in offence and was ably assisted by Helen Howard, as right wing. ions, also displayed fine form. The Spring Tournaf ment will be played by doubles, instead of singlesg so with all the wonderful available material, Classical certainly ought to make plenty of head' way. Ellie Ode, last year's champion, had a bad fall at camp last summer. As it left her with a badly wrenched knee, she was forced to sit on the side' lines last fall and watch the excellent competition she will meet in the Spring Tournament. HOCKEY Margaret Carty, a dependable halffback, was well supported by Gertrude Maclver and Frieda Lisker, hard hitting full backs. Rose D'Avanzo, a fresh- man, showed plenty of speed as inside. Altho the team was not a victorious one, it held its opponents to low scores, and with all but two veterans avail' able, we can have a winning team next year. VOLLEY BALL As the Girls' Volley Ball Team, ably captained by Bettye Smith, played only games this season, it had very little opportunity to exhibit its worth. The first two matches were lost to Commercial and Technical, although both contests were game' Iy played. The Hope game showed cofoperative teamwork on the part of the Classicalites, with the result that they won the contest. This year's team was handicapped by a lack of experienced players, but as there were many Freshman recruits, a successful season is hoped for in '31. X. .tJQ'KBW 48 THE CADUCEUS SOCIAL ACTIVITIES GERMAN CLUB The activities of the German Club of this year were confined to the presentation of a Christmas Play called Das Weihnachtsliedf' Through the diligent coaching of the author, Miss Alice R. Sheppard, and the assistance rendered by Miss Emelia Hempel, the play was exceedingly well delivered before a goodly audience in the Lecture Room, on December 30, at 3.30. Ruth Whitaker had the leading role as mother of two children, Hansel and Gretel, portrayed by Elizabeth Cannon and Orlando Malvedo. All three gave accurate and creditable performances. The student chorus, composed of Rice, Scribner, Lind, Lyman, Paul, and McKiernan, sounded very melodious as they marched in the door. Between the acts, special features were presented by members of the Gerf man Divisions. Naomi Flower, Martha Hewitson, and Wallace Pianka, took part in the transformaf tion scenes, representing spring and winter, ref spectively. Margaret Pearson sang several German songs, Lucienne Lavallee played a piano solog a group of songs was given by the girls' chorus, and several short poems were recited. At the close of the play, everyone agreed that Miss Sheppard's untiring interest and enthusiasm, as coach, and the efforts of the corps of stage managers, headed by Pearson and Singleton, were well repaid by the line presentation of the play. THE FRENCH CLUB The French Club had a very successful year under the able direction of Frederick E. Hawkins. The secretary of the club is Eleanor M. Ahearn. Members of the committee are: Lucienne Lavallee, chairman, Walter King and Leo jacques. At one of the meetings, Miss Hoyt, of the faculty, gave a very interesting account of her trip abroad, with pictures to illustrate. Mr. Hawkins gave a highly elucidating talk, in French, on live of the leading countries of Europe. Alice Calder, one of the stu' dents, spoke to the Club on her trip to Europe last summer. At one of the final meetings, a play called L'Anglais tel qu'on le parle, was success' fully given by Lucienne Levallee, Alice McKenna, Geno Verdi, Alfonse Votolato, Alfred Brady and Edward Falciglia. THE BOYS' GLEE CLUB OF CLASSICAL The Boys' Glee Club of Classical High School is being successfully conducted by Mr. Walter H. Angell. Every Thursday morning at about quarter past ten the sonorous tones emitted from the throats of the Musical Glee Club members may be heard, much to the delight of the whole school. Not long ago a little concert was given before the school by the Glee Club, which was very successful indeed. Unfortunately, our Club was not able to compete in the contest for singing honors, because of one director's lack of time in managing both the Boys' and Girls' Glee Clubs at once. It is true that the Club was not so very large this year, but the spirit and quality of the singing of its members were great. Here's hoping that next year's mem' bership increases, its spirit is the same, and every- thing is done in an effort to make a bigger and better Boys' Glee Club. GIRLS' GLEE CLUB The Classical Girls' Glee Club was reorganized this year, under the able leadership of Walter H. Angell. Weekly meetings were held in the school auditorium. The Club, numbering about fifty voices, enjoyed a successful year. Three public concerts were given: the first, early in the winter, for the school assemblies, the second, in the Beneficent Congregational Church, in connection with the celebration of the seventyffifth anniversary of the founding of the Classical High School Def partmentg the third, in Infantry Hall, in the ob' servance of National Music Week Festival. In all Glee Clubs, credit is due the accompanist in helping for the success of the Club. This oflice was aptly filled by Katherine M. Mullaney, '31, Q1 5 THE CADUCEUS 49 SeventyfFifth Anniversary of Classical Little did Vergil dream that in 1930 his ardent disciples would be celebrating his twofthousandth anniversary simultaneously with the seventyffifth anniversary of the establishment of Classical inf struction in Providence! On May seventh, the observance opened with brief exercises, in the school auditorium, attended by the entire student body. The morning program, as well as the two following, was enlivened by the splendid vocal offerings of the Senior Chorus, under the personal direction of Edward J. Grant, through whose untiring efforts and dogged per' severance we now sing On to Victory, as if it were our school song. The highspot of the celef bration, however, did not lie in the fact that Mrs. Anne C. E. Allinson, of the Providence School Committee, delivered a brief and inspiring message of felicitation, but that the undergraduates were dismissed at 9:15 CA. MJ Many Seniors had alf ready shown their unflinching loyalty and un' paralleled devotion by excusing themselves from classes, after a more or less successful rehearsal had been held at the church the preceding day. Following the dismissal of the undergraduates, a reception was tendered the parents and friends of the students. A glance at the program for this period, fortunately or unfortunately as the case may be, revealed the fact that there would be approximately seven orators, with only three musical renditions interspersed among them. So the eardrums of the haughty, downtrodden Seniors, Cepigramj, were bombarded with a multitude of words, which appeared to pour so profusely from the eloquent Ciceroflike mouths of the speakers, while the unsophisticated student body was bask' ing in the sunlight or reclining blissfully in a mov' ing picture theatre. But the will of the gods on Mt. Olympus was favorable. The immortal proverb through labor comes reward served as a means of consolation to the disconsolate Seniors, who, by this time, were desperately in need of a new lease on life. In the Beneficent Congregational Church, where services were held for the public, an inspirational reward, in the form of Miss Day's excellent poem Wingspread, was enthusiastically received by all. The undergraduates, since they were not compelled to attend the afternoon services, were unfortunate in that they missed this commendable contribution, which must have been a source of great pleasure to the Muses. Among the speakers at the church were Charles H. Forbes, Head of the Latin Department, Philips Andover Academy, Margaret S. Morriss, Dean of Pembroke College, and Superintendent Alexander J. Stoddard. Musif cal contributions by the Girls' Glee Club, Senior Chorus, and the Classical Orchestra, added to the enjoyment of the afternoon. A large group of alumni and alumnae gathered in the auditorium for a dinner in the evening, which formally closed a memorable day of reunions of old and young graduates. The dinner was partly in commemoration and testimonial of the fifty years of service which our esteemed principal, Dr. William T. Peck, has so zealously devoted to this institution. Dr. Peck was graduated from the Classical Department of the old Providence High School, in 1866, returned as pedagogue in 1874, and became headmaster in 1880. He delivered a stirring address, which was the outstanding feaf ture of the eventful occasion. Among the notables present were John Bates Clark, '65, professor- emeritus of Columbia University, Miss Bernice V. Brown, '11, Dean of Radcliffe College, and Clarence G. Hamilton, '84, professor of music at Wellesley. The latter expressed his heartfelt tribute to Dr. Peck, both in speech and in music. Judge Chester W. Barrows was elected President of the Alumni Association for the coming year, to succeed Albert A. Baker, '8O. We, the Class of '30, lift our hearts to heaven in silent prayer and invoke the celestial blessings of the Almighty upon our school and members of the Faculty, who have labored so diligently in our behalf. May our school live and increase after the Class of '30 is but a memory! H.

Great Zeus gazed down from on high. The Gods being favorable, the play was a perfect sucf cess. Dot Lovett, as Jennie, made a charming heroine, who, to quote one spectator, actually lived her part. Holmes King, Ted, gave a ref markably fine performance of a difficult role. Lil Salmin cut quite a figure, as Nan, in a sweet little gown and flowing hair. Alice Calder and Richard Kullberg excellently portrayed .Iennie's mother and father. Dick Batchelder did Ted's friend, jack, very well, and would grace any track team. Tom Sweeney had by far the biggest part. Margaret Joseph, Jack Bromley, Raymond Caldarone, Albert Piccolo, and Richard Rice, completed the cast, each performing unusually well. Dot Greene and Ray Caldarone did excellent work as stage managers, everything going off without a hitch. Charles Miller deserves great praise as the only expert Classical has had in the way of an electrician. Apart from the discomfort of occasionally pulling ourselves from the varnish of our chairs, all enjoyed a splendid play, per' formed in a very Uunamateurish manner. THE SENIOR DANCE The Classical Senior Dance of the class of '28 took place in the Narragansett Hotel on Friday, evening, May 16. The following were greeted as patronesses: Miss Gregory, Mrs. Fuller, Miss Hoyt, Miss Day, Miss Hathaway, Mrs. O'Neil, Mrs. Paine, Mrs. Hawkins, Mrs. Brown, Mrs. Ward, Mrs. Berry, Mrs. Randall, Miss Cotton, Miss Horr, Miss Hoye, Miss Sheppard, Miss Scott. The dance was a whirling success since approximately ninetyfiive couples were present. The gay colored dresses added to the local color of the beautiful, mirrored ballfroom. To see the girls dancing the waltzes brought to one's mind the graceful Spanish dancers of old. As usual, the boys endured the torture of wearing tuxedos and held out admirably against the discomforting collars and chestfprotectors. Mr. Peck did his best to cheer up the boys in their miseries as he went around greeting everybody. Respectable punch was served in abundance. The intermission was spent by those present in the hotel's beautiful lounge, abounding in very costly works of art. The musical part of the program was furnished by Doc Holmes' orchestra. A fine time was had by all during the four hours of the dance. The epochal event of the year came to an end at twelve o'c1ock, midnight. Those on the committee were: G. Edward Falciglia, chairman, Anna Manning, Adel- ma Mott, Elizabeth Allsop, George jordan and Abraham Bloom. Nfscffiwm 52 THE CADUCEUS. YE SENIOR MASQUERADE In nineteen thirty, the seventh of Febr'y, The Seniors assembled a large assembly. All in costumes were gaily arrayed For this was the eve of the masquerade!! O, socials have gone and socials will come, But this was the greatest of all, I vum. In foregoing days impatience was great As all awaited the longedffor date. Excitement prevailed and the days were full Ofa spirit unlike the more usual lull. The question arose and again arose As who or as what each had planned to pose. The dancing instruction proved a success: The number of CAN'TS became less and less. Then the climax, THE NIGHT did arrive, All were alert, all gaily alive. Here was Don Nigol, a gay caballero, Oilicious as always. Sapristi! Quel bon beau! Then a Maizie from Woolworth's evoked quite some mirth Caused by noting her hips and her slimness of girth. A sunfbonnet lass with a flaming bandanna Of colors as loud as a Classical Banner. A great many more, too many to mention, Received from the crowd no little attention. And after a dance or two came to pass, Of a sudden a stillness o'ercame the whole mass. By instinct all eyes were turned to the doorw- A glancega gasp-and then came a roar. For out of the darkness there loomed a pair Whom the shafts of Don Cupid had managed to snare. The groom in his slightly foreshortened tuxedo, C'Twas an heirloom from a grandsire loaded with doughj, Was none but our always goodfnatured old Wally, As ever replete with sayings quite jolly. And there on his arm, most graciously posed, Stood beautiful Nick, with nicely rolled hose, Displaying among the folds of his gown A limb that would bring to Gillette a great frown, A train of lovely, filrny old netting That should, in summer, mosquitoes keep fretting, Lovely high heels, corsagefcauliflower, A sign, perhaps, of a right pleasing shower. After a welcome hilarious and hearty, Things went off as they will at a party. The usual dancing, a game here and there, Prizes for costumes, the best did share. The evening passed by-time speeded on, At eleven o'clock peace settled down. And so at the end of a perfect day The masquerade endedgeach guest went his way. J. R. P.

The autumn of 1927 proved no exception to the rule, and, as the doors swung open, the faculty was greeted by another milling herd. All proceeded to grapple with their curricula with equal zest. This enthusiasm waned per' ceptibly, however, when General Algebra and his little playmates began to unfold their tricks and wiles for the tripping of guileless Freshmen, many of whom fell before his relentless onslaughts. In the following year, a more seasoned and select group prepared themselves to resist the ravages of Sophomore studies headed by Messrs. Brown and Ward. Nevertheless, our ranks were thinned greatly before the time came when we could call ourselves Juniors. Those of us who have survived now compose a wellfbalanced class, containing athletes, members of the intelligentsia, and social lions and lionesses, Venimus, vidimus, vicimus. CWith apologies to J. Caesar, Esq.l The athletic ability of our class is unquestioned, joe Cusick and Lazarus aided the football team materially in achieving such success as it did on the gridiron. Our tennis team, of which much is expected, is augmented by Eddy, Lazarus and Goldman, joe Roberts proved to be a firstfclass goalie for our hockey team, providing a great deal of opposif tion to wouldfbe scorers. Cavanaugh, who played a wing position, also deserves credit. Hazlehurst, Chark and Sackin were mainstays of our basketball team. Each was on the first string and performed creditably. Considering next the track team, we may note that C. Pease shows promise as a weight man, and McKenna's long distance runs bid fair to make history. Without its juniors the baseball team would hardly exist. Bill Paquin and Ruby Sackin form a reliable pitching corps, while Joe Cusick does the receiving behind the plate in his usual commend' able fashion. Joe Roberts and Billy Noon complete a snappy outffield. With such an aggregation as the abovefmenf tioned, augmented by many other fellows, whose names space does not permit recounting, it certainly is not too much to expect that the class of 1931 will be long remembered for its athletes. Turning to the scholarly element of the class, one can readily recognize several potential ref cipients of Cum Lauden honors. At present, plans are being forwarded for the holding of a Junior Social, and it is expected that much of the steam that has been pent up through' out the year, will be let off at this affair. Indeed we are a versatile class when one conf siders all our accomplishments, and in spite of being exposed to a great deal of knowledge and sophistry through three long years we still know the meaning of the word fun. In truth one would have to search far to find a betterfnatured and happier group. Soon we are to enter our Senior year and we conf fidently expect to succeed in every line of endeavor open to us, to make a lasting impression on the faculty by our scholarshipg and to set a high stand' ard in general for those who are to follow us down Classical's corridors in pursuit of wisdom. THE CADUCEUS 55 SOPHOMORES The work of the Sophomore Class of Classical High School has indeed been noticeable since its ascent from the lowest possible state, the Freshman Class, both in athletics and in scholastic work- During the year many of the students of this grade have gained names for themselves and their class through their distinction in these branches of school activities. Here are a few examples. The slamming of a door and the rapid tread of leather on the stairway announce the arrival of Horace Notte of baseball fame, racing with the 8:30 bell. Horace is an exceptional student, but has a terrible temper which seems to get the best of him many times throughout the day. Then come Bucci and Karahaf lios, varsity football men, with their husky bodies and grim countenances, followed by the supple forms of Hindle, Cooper, Rosen, and Montecalvo, who have registered their names with Classical's best in hockey, baseball, basketball and track. So, as you can see, this class has contributed conf siderable material to the boys' teams of the school. To you masculine readers, does something very important seem to be lacking? Of course! We also have girls in the Soph Class, and the way Belle Strauss, Dot Lovell and Agnes Donovan play on their teams is a treat. The early warm weather does not help any one in his studies either, but Louis Willemin, the scholastic genius, is not worried at all. He gets all A's without half trying. Then the exams, fthe unavoidable barriers to those seeking the next step on the ladder of successj, are coming sooner this semester than is customary, and the prospects of advancing are none too bright for many of us. Many others of our number hope to pass, and judgf ing by the appearance of the class, now Sophomores, next year's juniors should be worthy of notice. FRESHMEN With well scrubbed faces, starched petticoats, and slickumed hair, the Freshman Class entered these illustrious halls, September, 1930. Our feelf ings were half bravado and half fear, but our eyes were bright in anticipation of what the coming year would reveal to us of the glories and mysteries of Classical High. We tried to look wise, and started in to burn the midnight oil. As for our conquests in athletics, we have been proud this year to have some of our Freshmen on the 'Varsity Teams. Fitzpatrick fought for the Purple on the ice, and by the time we have reached the dignity of all four years we know it will take a mighty good man to beat him. Brotman and Brown graced the track team, and Gross and Swider were outstanding in basketball. Any visitor to the park tennis courts might have seen Fitzpatrick giving his competitors a run for their money. By our junior Year we fully expect to have many letter' men proud of their attainments for Classical. The girls' first attempt at conquests was on the tennis courts, and the outstanding winner for the singles was Virginia Post. Field Hockey next demanded our attention.. One of the noted players was Miss D'Avanzo. The next opposition was in the form of Basketball. A number of girls turned out, and we hope next year to land the banner. Although at times we have been Freshies in all senses of the word, next year we will show you, in all our sophistication, some real Classicalites. Who captures all the A's? Why, Miss Hanson and Miss D'Avanzo, of course. CHAMPION SEAT TESTER One of our rolling stones is George Taft and, if appearances aren't deceiving, it is his highest aspiration to be an occupant of every seat in the school. 56 THE CADUCEUS BOARD THE CADLICELYS Assusmnt vmond Pearson.

Alice Niurrav 'Ch Pease, Inj, Edrtm-an i THE CADUCEUS 57 DEBATING SOCIETY Late in October, Mr. Asa G. Randall expressed his willingness to help reorganize the Classical High Debating Society, which was discontinued in 1927. At the first meeting, about twenty stu' dents, all unfamiliar with even the rudiments of the subject, assembled. Officers were elected and var' ious committees appointed. Meetings were held every Monday afternoon. The programs consisted of intrafmural debates, essays, and readings on topics of general interest. Throughout the year Mr. Randall worked dilif gently to teach the elementals of debating, devoting many hours, himself, to the study of the subject. After a series of elimination contests, which were jludged by men prominent in the art of debatf ing, t e Classical High School Debating Team was selected. It composed Edward P. Brown, Captain, Walter Harris, Santi Paul and Benjamin Schulman, alternate. This team upheld the negative of Resolved, That Chain Stores Should Be Encourf aged in the United States, and defeated the Classical Independents. On the same subject, in its first formal appearance, the inexperienced Classical Team dropped a close decision to the Providence Evening High School. In a nofdecision return engagement at the Providence Public Speakers' Club, an impressive showing was made by our representatives. However, prior to the latter debate, the lineup had been revamped. Schulman had taken Paul's place and Robert Eddy became the alternate. Then after a considerable amount of study and research work, combined with the cofoperation and assistance of Mr. Randall, a superior Classical Team defeated the Brown University Freshmen, winning a unanimous vote. There was also a second team, composed of Robert Eddy, Captain, Alphonse Votolato, Wil' liam McKenna and William Conati, alternate. This team succeeded in winning two of three debates. The club activities were suspended early in May. All indications point to an unusually successful season for next year. .5?J iN 58 THE CADUCEUS ANTHONY MEDAL ESSAYS BEET!-IOVEN Ruth Clayton Whitaker Ludwig von Beethoven, one of the world's foremost musicians and composers, was born in a small town in Germany about one hundred years ago. Symphonies, Sonatas, and lighter selections are among his many and varied compositions, but the one that I have loved from the time I was first able to appreciate music, is a piece that only a man such as Beethoven could have written-The Moonlight Sonatafentrancingly beautiful. In the history of music, I think there is no story about the moon that is so beautifully composed. No sooner have the opening strains been played, than one seems to picture to himself a quiet shore of the ocean during the still night when the waves lap sleepily against the shores. In the distance, the moon, round and Hery red, slowly begins its jour' ney through its heavenly kingdom. As it ascends, the red softens into orange and that, in turn, becomes a gorgeous white. The twinkling stars herald its majestic glory, drawing back, one by one, to make way for their sovereign queen. We watch, entranced. A little cloud floats across the face of the moon, entirely hiding it from view and spreading darkness o'er the sea. It passes soon and all becomes serene. The waters are lapping still against the shore, while the sky is gorgeously alight. Then, lo, there is a change. A little breeze be' gins to stir the air. The shrubs amongst the ocean cliffs are dancing to a minuet. The waves are playing gleefully with the sand. The stars them' selves are twinkling brighter until soon all is wrapped in a cloak of merriment. As the moon rises higher, a tenseness seems to lie over the spectacle. Suddenly the waves begin to dash upon the rocks. The cliffs resound in mighty homage to the moon above-the moon that reflects their rugged beauty in the waters below. No king of men has ever been escorted to his throne amid a more inf spiring ceremony. The summit of the heavens is reached. The moon in stately splendor, seems to smile upon the stars, as does a gracious queen upon her subjects. The Waves break several times upon the rocks with terrific force. Then all is still. Such is the story told by the Moonlight Sonata, written by a man whose character and genius are much more conspicuous in his music than in his life. ' 1 THE CADUCEUS 59 The Passing of South Main Street Leander F. Pease, 2nd Roger Williams stirred in his grave. Rumor, that misbegotten daughter of Mother Earth, whose facility for being everywhere at the same time bids one watch his step, had reached him even in his last resting place. For many years he had lain dormant. Only once had he had any cause for complaint. When men had come to dig up the apple tree's roots, which had grown to lit the shape of his body, he had grumbled a little, but after they had taken what they came for, he had slept on. He had lain quiescent, as a properly laid ghost should, while his Providence had prospered. One by one the old grist mills, farm houses, stone barns, jetties, and cowfpaths had been torn down or replaced. Roger had smiled, he could afford to smile, for where there had been farm houses with great barns near them, splendid mansions, equipped with neat garages, had sprung up, like toadstools after a spring shower, factories now stood where grist mills had formerly ground the farmers' wheat and corn, modern docks provided anchorage for huge ocean liners, where, long ago, the Indians tied their scows to rickety stone jetties or over' turned their canoes on the shore, last of all, the cow paths had been discarded to make way for wide, smooth roads. All this Roger had borne, but now the people of Providence had decided to clean up South Main Street. Roger stirred again, groaning deeply. Suddenly he disappeared from his grave, to appear shortly, afterwards on Broad Street, heading toward the center of the city. We will leave him on Broad Street, striding along lookf ing neither to the left nor to the right, a queer, outlandish figure. South Main Street, better known as Soused Main Street, runs along the right bank of the Providence River. It is a place that seems to atf tract the flotsam and jetsam of life. Downfandf outers may be seen at almost any hour of the day or night furtively tipping a dirty bottle or slipping, stealthily, into slovenly doorways. Lined with ramshackle houses, cut by dark, illfsmelling alleys, paved with cobblestones so unevenly laid, that one might think he was in the Saint Antoine district of Paris, which Dickens describes so well in his Tale of Two Cities. For the health, the beauty, the safety of Providence, South Main Street was to be no more. This, then, was the street, the rumor of whose passing had roused Roger Williams. A slatternly woman was squabbling with her surly husband on a little balcony above the street, two dogs vtere disputing the ownership of a pile of odoriferous garbage, on the corner of one of the dark alleys, a man was shamelessly tipping a bottle. Everywhere there was vice, sordidness, Hlth. Suddenly a sound was heard in the distance. Around the corner of Crawford Street, on to South Main, came Roger Williams, numerously attended by a straggling crowd of curious loafers. The man and his wife stopped fighting. The dogs left the offal to run barking after the crowd. Even the man with the bottle forgot his whiskey long enough to take in the scene with his blurry eyes. Roger walked about three blocks, then he stopped. An thou shalt tell me where I may find the lane which men call South Main Street, he addressed a bystander, 'ithou shalt have a shilling. You're on it now, grandpa! someone shouted. Roger looked about in evident bewilderment. Where were the green trees, the clear springs, the smooth' ly flowing river? Surely there must be some mis' take. Roger turned slowly away. His remembered appearance of South Main Street was immeasurably different from what he found. The crowd dis' persed. He walked slowly away, out of sight for' ever. The renovating was entirely finished. A smooth new road, flanked by attractive houses and office buildings, had appeared. His old South Main Street had passed, but Roger Williams slept peace' fully on in the eternal night, knowing his loss had been for the best. 1 1.313287 60 THE CADUCEUS WIN GSPREAD The pattern of the universe is marred When sun or moon eclipse has charred The planet's rim with blackened light, And clouded day with shadowing night. So do the powers of man's created soul, Decrescent grown, in darkness hide, If inward light be dimmed or aught denied. The cycle of the world is life's symbol: The questing spirit limitless may roam: Walk, run, or swim, or fly to heaven's dome- All earth's domain our birthright-and our home! Our heritage is freedom's wine- Past and present, yours and mine. We all grow young listening-hear The centuryfmellowed strings vibrating clear The ageless melodies of poetfseer. And souls set here in mortal soil Are like flowers in the water growing, Whose petals spread beyond it, and, unfurled, Reach upward toward another world. E'en so the lark that builds her nest On earth's stubble, flying, sings, From the pure ecstasy of buoyant wings. A pygmy of earth's men may, like A Titan, scale Olympus height- If he but yield his mind, wingspread. May capture fabled doe with horns of gold, Glimpse shimmering armor of Valkyries in their flight, Or gaze into the Sphinx's eyes, stonefcoldg May, with his ear laid close to earth, Hear buried cities chiming, faintly, for rebirth, Or see a glowfworm light a star that's dead- If he but yield his mind, wingspread. To him whose spirit yearns for growing grace There comes the miracle of space- The gift of the unfolding cosmic mind. Hark! on the highways of the universe, In dazzling pomp emerging, Hear the Magi march of many kings Who bring to mankind their great offerings. Behold the roads converging Toward a distant star, forming its rays. Far off and toward the Tigris vale In silhouetted glory lying Colossal palaces and towerftemples shine, Their gold and alabaster with the moon' light vying. Far off and toward Egyptian vale A mass of granite, grayfetched pile, Looms upward from the quarries of the Nile. Hush! over the earth awareness of time is stealing! From starftowers in Egypt and Chaldaea Astronomers and priests in wonder gaze, and fear, At sun and moonfdisks, and, by lore, divine The working of the planet-clock That moves the Great Design. Now from Chaldean Ur sets face The destined founder of a chosen race, A holy nation-priests and prophets of one God. While on Sinai's dimfseen mount- Sight prophetic-Moses stands- A thick cloud rest upon it, Fire descends, An earthquake rends, Above the thunder Yahweh's voice commands- Assembled people at the nether mount-- Soulfburning words of sacred law. Lo, from walled Tyre, the port of entry to the sea, Come chariots of bronze and ebony, By merchantfprinces driven, Drawn by two and twenty Arab steeds abreast, Each with letter of gold emblazoned on his crest- Those magic symbols that gave kindred code To peoples dwelling far apart, of alien mode. Now toward the West a glance Across an inland sea of blue Summons to view Divine Hellas, breath of the gods. Immortal flame Burns in the beauty that crowns thy name! Qlyfiiy E THE CADUCEUS 61 VVINGSPREAD-Continued Fragrance fills the air. By Thespian roadside sleeping Lies a youth, fatigued by heat of day, And bees of Hybla, sips of amber steep' ing, Are strewing honey on his lips- CWhile to the buccaneers his nectar slipsj. Bodements sweet of lyric song Thus to youthful Pindar throng, And flowing through his slumbers, stream In form of Panhellenic dream. The dream came true, But nobler than the one he drew! Golden pollen, borne by Hybla's bees And winds of heaven through the air, Filter 'cross the seas and lands, And back again in countless windrowfthreads, So fine they spin an air-drawn spiderfweb Of beauty-all the world enmeshed By artlessly inwoven strands. Unceasing shuttle of transmuting art- Sublimest product of the pagan mart! A Panhellenic dream that grew, But not the federated union Pindar knew! Homer, Phidias, and Socrates- Than Alexander more triumphant these, Whose arts of peace a greater victory have won Than Thracian phalanx fighting in the sun. From farther West the Magi march comes moving still- From the Roman citadel Along the Appian Way. To rule the nations with imperial sway By thy care, O Roman: thine the law Of broad humanity, whose precept led The emperorfsage: My city is the world, he said. This too thy gift, O Roman: Virgil sang the epic lay That draws the pilgrims to his shrine today. Now down the highways of the universe The Magi march of ancient kings dies out afar, All roads converging toward the mystic star Of Bethlehem, in Judah, Yahweh's land. To him whose spirit yearns for growing grace There comes the miracle of space- The gift of the unfolding cosmic mind. We are part of the Panhellenic dream That built itself, unwitting, in the eternal scheme Of worldfprogress and worldfhappiness. The fruitage of Greek Art and Intellect: Restraint, the golden mean, nothing in excess, And know thyself, if thou wouldst truth express, The fruitage of the ideal Roman state, The worldfcity, where all race and creed Are one before the law and patriotic meedg The fruitage of the moral code on Sinai consecrateg The fruitage that the Bethel star designed- Munificent giftfgiving to mankind. All this, enriched, must be the legacy The Present yields. But what the Magi gift? That art and intellect and peace do most uplift And conquer, that war enslaves in savageryg That man's spirit must be free For his wingspread destiny As a member of the world's great family. A pygmy of earth's men may, like A Titan, scale Olympus height- If he but yield his mind, wingspread. May capture fabled doe with horns of gold, Glimpse shimmering armor of Valkyries in their flight, Or gaze into the Sphinx's eyes, stonefcoldg May, with his ear laid close to earth, Hear buried cities chiming, faintly, for rebirth, Or see a glowfworm light a star that's dead- If he but yield his mind, wingspread. ANNE MARJORIE DAY, May 7, 1930. Y 62 TH E CADUCEUS EN PASSANT Let us pause a while in passing, just to speak a word or two, Of the trials and tribulations That we seniors have gone through. We can skip the first two years Of our sojourn in this school, When we always did as hidden Under upperfclassmerfs rule. We were embryos of Seniors, But we did not look ahead, Hard exams and misdemeanors Occupied our time instead. But as juniors in our third year We began to look around, We commenced to take an interest In the matters schools expound. We attended all the rallies, We attended all the games, And we now knew mighty persons Who before had been but names. Then as Seniors we all straightened, Donning royalty by right: We were lords of all the classmen And tradition was our might. Since when Classical was started In the dim years now long gone, We have always had a classfbook Named Caduceus when 'twas born. Written on its sacred pages There are tales of derring do, Tales of football and of hockey And some lighter nonsense, too. How we Seniors groan and grumble When we pay for play and cut. Prom and picture, socials, class gift- There's no end to this gamut. Yet we Seniors are a sober crew, And though we whine and scold, We are loath to leave these hallways Which four years have been our fold. L. F. P., 2ND. -r-4o4bI:Psn---+ THE OWL A horrid, haunting, wailing screech From forth a falling milkfwhite beech, Broke the ghastly midnight calmg While in its perch and fresh from flight Sat stiff the master bird of night, As it moaned its deadly psalm. The fiendish herald of a hoary hueg Foretells a death, and queries whooooo, With its gloomy mystic charm. Then lo! the grayish horned bird of yore Detects a movement on the earthen floor, And prepares for honest harm. A mite of mouse comes into solemn sightg The owl starts its downward muflled flight, Murdersg hurries to its ramose arm. Again the deathfbird sits in customary gloom Yet dark and dreary is the universal room, Still the world is deadly calm. G. E. F.

I 68 THE CADUCEUS Presentation of a Play at the Court of King OomfPah One day the king was struck by an idea, but it didn't hurt him. He decided to stage a play, which would express his feelings. He and Queenie dis' cussed Cand cussedj the King's only idea, and apf pointed the Glorious and Grand SofandfSo to take charge. There was difficulty in deciding who the hero was to be, but finally Prince Gafga, his only favorite son got the job. The prince was noted for his bravery, being Chief Flykiller in the kingdom. The blushing heroine was the Princess of Abba' Dabba, although she had forgotten how to blush years before. The preparation began fand how.j The scene was in France, where it fell when the stage hands threw it. All was entered into with Wim, wigor, and witalityf' The dawn came more than once during the rehearsals, and The Royal Guards, as stage hands, bombarded each other generously with language and property. At one rehearsal Prince GafGa, while sawing scenery, cut the royal piano with a slash that made a sound like a lame fish calling for its mate. Dress rehearsals made the Grand and Glorious SofandfSo tear his hair and threaten to blow his nose and the kingdom off its hinges. The stage manager, the Duke of PingfPong, bellowed for a Piccolo to help him from under a 200 lb. piece of scenery. Opening night turned out to be clear and moist. The crowd thronged into the King's cellar, and filled every seat, some filling two, Csome being full alreadyj. Backstage everyone was keyed up, even the dressing rooms, and the Prince GafGa had to wait for the Royal Bearer of the Striped Trunks to arrive and open them. The heroine was dressed in a beautiful, superfalcagiolistical gown. The play started earlyg the first act cleared the atmof sphere and also the hall. The production itself ran for two nights, as did the cast, when the audi' ence got wise. The Prince and Princess bowed amidst a beautiful golden shower of ancient hen' fruit. The crowd killed off all the nobles, set up a republic and dragged Zeus off his perch, giving the profits of the King's feelings to charity, sending one hundred more missionaries to the starving Poly' nesians in East Handlebars. The moral of this tale, dear reader, is: Don't knock the tea in restaurantsg you'll be old and weak yourself some day. W. L. K. sr-4ae4X9Wx:i---4 Potpourri ' of Errata Dear children, this is the tale told by the Pythian priestess, who sang in the follies, to Mr. Homer, who didrft know his natural history: 'Twas on the day that the swellfheaded Achaeans declared there would be no school to' morrow. The acropolis at Athens was a mess, because a patrician had chased a pleb, who had run chez tribune. Every one wondered whether or not Dido would hght for her lover. She wouldn't. In fact, when he left, she didn't even say good' byeg but her hair waved! It was indeed a difficult question. The frosh who wears spats sneezed on different sides of it and called together the joyful Acestes. Mr. Lind, who is seen with a bobbie pin in his hair, was just ordering M. Perrichon to carry back the horse himself, when the break came. Everything was calm in this pinfold llthat which can be bounded by a pin UI, Dido had recognized the footsteps of an old flame, when suddenly W. Thane Peck, with winged words, ordered Miss Pease, fthe second, by the wayj not to make a show of his knees! Whereupon, all the young Peckidae picked up their dishes and went home! Thus ended the Delphic priestess, coming out of her trance. R. C. P. ,f5ve.,,m 'ng N -.ATL-alggvg:-nv ' w E W THE CADUCEUS 69 'W om M19 WMM so 1-rea! 7,, C H 5 P Q30 to A G Fl?

In other words, to be poetical, Rosy'fingered Eos had once again fled across the wide sky, bringing light to Zeus, Nick, and the rest of Providence. Nick arrived a half'minute before the last bell, said good'morning to the teacher, thereby incurr' ing suspicion for such unaccustomed courtesy, and sat down. Two minutes to cram Latin! then the bell. He dozed comfortably through the review Latin, waking in time to remark, irrelevant' ly that Vergil must have been a grocer since he knew his onions. When asked to elucidate, he replied that the term was merely hgurative. CHe was probably dreaming of Bermudaj Nothing more of note happening the Hrst period, with the ex' ception of a highly interesting anatomical operation on an unwary fly, he repaired forthwith to the Geometry class, where, after much deep thought, Cexamining of walls, kicking of feet, squirming, etc.D, he managed to vouchsafe the information that all the sides of a square are equal. CHelpful contributionj After this amazing disclosure, he sat down, well pleased with himself, and recom' menced the investigation of the fly, which, by this time, was showing signs of wear. So engrossed did he become that when the teacher asked how many legs it had, meaning the triangle then under discussion, he replied, One, the other is in the Lecture Room! Fortunately, before the teacher could go into details concerning the wisdom of assiduous attention, the gong sounded and Nick escaped still in possession of his mangled fly. The next period was for study. Nick procured a slip for the library and sallied forth to see if any of his comrades had been able to get out. Upon meeting one Al Abasta in the corridor, he produced the now well'nigh unreco nizable torso of the mar' tyred fly, suggesting tliat they experiment on it further, with the aid of acids. Al agreed, so they adjourned to the laboratory. As Professor Tan was out, they proceeded to make themselves chez eux. The fly was soon forgotten in the fascinating concoction of a new acid, which was to be called Nickal. At the crucial moment when things might reasonably have been expected to begin to happenfthey did. But instead of Nickal, it was Professor Tan that started things. In the con' fusion Nick and Al managed to disappear. Thus the world was never astonished by Nickal, which, by the way, was to have been a substitute for energine in cigarettelighters. As time was flying, Nick stopped in the library to have his slip signed, going thence to his room. Assuming an innocent expression, he entered and seated himself. Luckily, the teacher was busy, and omitted checking up on his time. flmaginell The next class passed quietly, en somme. The only incident worthy of mention was the answer Nick made to one of the questions. It wasn't bad. He merely affirmed that Faery Mah was a show playing in New York, featuring Marie Dressler. CWe could have said janet Gaynor or Greta Garbo, but who cares7j This answer disgraced him. He was wrapped in glum Cgum?j silence for the re' mainder of the period. CHe should worry, he wasn't called on.D Now I don't want you to form a wrong im' pression of Nick. There were some things he could do, and do well. The next period afforded him a chance to show off. He was the first one down to the lunchroom, the Hrst to finish, and the last one to return to his home room. During the interim after lunch, he amused himself and his classmates, by making a paper boat sail back and forth on an ingenuously constructed elastic sea. The ship was sailing right merrilyg every one was breathlessly watching its fascinating gyrations-then the elastic parted. French came next. Nick was prepared. Every' thing progressed smoothly until the teacher asked what Inoue meant. Why, replied Nick, I thought that was what you said when you wanted to scare some one ! The teacher gave up in despair. The last period was the Greek class. Horrors! What Nick didn't know about Greek would fill many large volumes. Nevertheless, the crisis had to be facedg so he put on a bold front and sauntered nonchalantly to his seat. He managed to trail along until Dr. Pint asked what Podokes Achilles meant. Nick knew that it had some' thing to do with feet, and just when he was cogitating whether to give up or not, some one murmured flat, so, Cyou've guessed it alreadyj. It came out flat footed Achilles! That started a riot, and before the class could be calmed down the bell rang. Al fled. Thus endeth this picaresque tale. May it be worth at least a Nick'el! L. F.

If I never gaze upon your fatuous profiles again, it will be ever too soon. Four long, weary, wasteful years have you been playing around this school and now it's up to your fathers and mothers to endure your unbearable company a while. Four long, dreary years you've sat in our schoolfrooms, auditorium, lunchrooms4 that's about all you've accomplishedAsat! Now you can sit on flagfpoles or benches. See if I care! Those ribbonfbedecked diplomas you may as well cast in a corner as you go out, they won't do you a bit of good. You might also throw in the same corner any school property you possess. From the paraphernalia missing around here I presume you may open stationery or even silver' ware stores. But, my dear boys and girls, we will always miss you at old Hooey. From the initials you've carved upon the desks and walls, how can we ever forget your innocent faces? And if we should forget it will be easy to revive our memory in a few years by a quick glance through Rogues' Gallery. So, my dear young pupils, it is indeed with deep regret CHa! Ha! Ha D that I see you flee from this institution, and it is with intense surprise that I see you leave all four walls standing. Au revoir! CThank the Lord that's over.j H.
