Charles Iiussinaul Scene: Artist 's studio. l'ietures ranged about the walls. Enter Artist and Customer. Artist: These pictures are going on exhibition, but I want you to look them over and have first choice among them. They're a. series of historical scenes from the school activities of the class of '32 of the Dedham Iligh School. Customer: Dedham High School .' Never heard oi' the place. Is it near Islington? That's a great little town! Artist tshockedj : My dear young man, don 't you know that the Dedham Iligh School is down in history for the wonderful graduates it sent out in '32? Such ignorance! Tsk-tsk! Customer Chumblyj : Now that you mention it, I believe I have heard of it. Isn't that the town where they have such delicious drinking water? Artist Cimpatientlyl: Well, we won 't discuss that. Herels the first pic- ture. lt's enitled T110 Your of 1928. Customer: VVell, well, well. VVhat a funny looking bunch of kids! XVhat's the matter with them? They look as if they were going to their doom. Artist: Not quite. They're starting out for their first classes. They've probably just ran into an upper classman on tratiic duty. Customer: My, 1ny! Look at the knee pants and the curls! Aren't they sweet! ' g ' . Artist: See that boy there? That's Bob Snnth. He was elected vice- president and he never came to a .class meeting during all four years. A nice lad, but rather shy with the ladies, Customer: Here's another sketch. Poor youngsters, they look like the morning after. Artist: You're right. The morning after the freshman party. They all voted it a grand occasion. The mosquitoes held a Thanksgiving dinner at the same time. Slightly out of season, but greatly enjoyed just the same. Those two girls there-Mary and Theresa DeBenedictis fthe inseparablesl-won the elimination contest and each got two perfectly huge lollypops. Then the crowd held a sampling bee, but when they were at last tired of the game, the poor girls were left to enjoy their lollypop sticks in peace. Bob Hill began his great dancing career here-lilary Delaney carried him around on l1er feet for one whole dance while the orchestra played XVas That tl1e Human Thing To Do? Mary 's feet came through all right though. She limped a little for only a year or two after. She's doing well now. Customer: The next picture of yours is quite a sunburst. This boy looks like the cat who has swallowed the canary. Artist: This portrait represents the sophomores. They had a right to be happy. They had just escaped going to school in the afternoon with the fresh- men. Customer: VVho's this lad here? He's grinning from ear to ear like a Cheshire cat. Artist: Oh, that 's James Boone in one of his studious moments. The junior year 's activities are typified in the next picture. Customer: That was their big year in athletics, wasn't it '? Artist: I'll say it was. VVhy, the football team even managed to defeat Norwood with the help of Letteney, Larcom, Smith, Henderson, and lVIaclXIillan. Customer: Oh, by the way, do you know a gentleman by the name of Ryan, who teaches English there? l952 13 IEDHAMILS. - Artist: Do ll' llc sent Kussinaul, when he had him in English, on an inspection tour of the study halls. t'ustonier: Did he find out anything? Artist: Yeah! Ile found out that you can fool in some study halls some of the time, but you can't tool in all the study halls all of the time. Customer: I have heard that they held the much-talked-of Junior Prom that year. Artist: Yes, Jean Withington got her start then as an interior decorator. lt was one of the big events of the year. Everyone was on his best behavior. The boys were very stitf and formal in their tuxes, afraid to move for fear of cracking. The girls certainly showed what style and looks were like at Dedham High. The ice cream was so hard that someone suggested bouncing it on the pavement to soften it. t'ustoiner: l've heard that the senior year was the year of the greatest activity. XVas that true? Artist: lt certainly was! The town figured that, now the Class of '32 would soon be grzuluating. it would be safe to build an addition to the school and there were plenty ol' workmen and noise to keep the students company. Vustonier: l imagine that they didn't care very much for that. Didn't it interfere with their class work? It must have been very annoying to the stu dents to have their studies interrupted so Artist: Uh, yes indeed. They would postively turn blue in the face when the mortar mixer drowned out the voices of their teachers. But some of the students seemed anxious to learn bricklaying. They would hang out the win- dows, doing their best to watch the process, and even their studies were eclipsed by their interest in the art of this craft. f'ustomer: I suppose there were a great many changes in the classes on account of the work on the building. Artist: The assembly hall was torn down, to the everlasting indignation of the seniors, and the gym was no more, when the workmen were through with it. The girls had to take long walks in place of their regular exercises. Miss Tobin can tell you all about her difficulties in keeping her charges from blocking traffic and, above all, from getting lost. She had to hold up whole classes while she searched for missing members who had accidentally wandered off. l'ustomer: I recollect that the popular Mr. Botto1nley's problems classes were taken over by Mr. Peltier. Artist: Yes, there were plenty of tears shed over that, but the mourners were finally resigned to their awful fate and in time even grew to like it. t'ustomer: By the way, how did their play Tons of Money turn out? IVas it a success? Artist: It was a wow! Eleanor Rhode's realistic sobbing and Tay Hersey's love making were the outstanding features of the show. They brought down the house. l'ustomer: I've read all about the undefeated D.H.S. girls' hockey team. What a talented class. Artist: Undefeatcd! Say, they lost every game-but just the same A. Brown and C. Babcock landed positions on the Boston All-Star Hockey Team. Customer: XVhat about their other exploits? Artist: Vtfell, their exclusive Senior Prom was held at the Capen School and all the dignified seniors tu1'ned out for the big event dressed to kill. Customer: I heard a lot of gossip about stray mice wandering around the building. I hope they didn 't do any mischief. Artist: None to speak of. Just frightened some of the girls, that's all. According to the reports I've heard, one of them terrified Carmela D'eFalco. Mr. Cowan had sent her to do an errand on the third floor. On the Way she l932 M YEAR l500K e saw a little inousv friskiiig about on the seeoiul floor and the lirave girl flasliecl back to Mr. Cowan with the exciting 111-ws. t'11stome1': I hope they clicl11't inalu- any ll10l'l5 personal 2llJIN'2ll'?lIl0t'S.

The judge's bench is at the right, turned sidewise to the audience. O Facing are table and two chairs for the attor- neys: behind these are two more chairs for the witnesses. In the back center is a table for the clerk of the court, and to tl1e judge 's left is a chair for the Wit- nesses to testify in. As the curtain goes up the clerk is seated at his table. He rises impressively.j Clerk: Oyez, Oyez! This court is now in session. All ye who have business draw nigh .... Cliike all the clerk's speeches this is spoken rapidly and i11- coherentlyj CThe two attorneys, Miss Malicious Envy, and Miss 1933 enter left. The judge enters right. lVhen all are seated, the clerk reads from an enormous ro1l.j Clerk: The case of Malicious Envy against the estate of the class of 1932. Liverwurst Crising and coming forward toward the benchj : Your honor, my client is a deeply wronged woman. She is the victim of the grossest and blackest injustice. The late 1932, who owed her everlasting gratitude, who was indebted to her in a thousand and one ways which I need not enlarge upon- the Class of 1932, your honor, left my client in his will-nothing! Now, your honor knows and I know and we all know that however grievously his will wrongs my client she has no legal redress if-IF--he made the will when he l952 15 S- DEDHAM H. S. was of a sound mind. But, your honor, I will show conclusively that the late class of 1932 suffered from dementia praecox, paranoia, hypochondria, manic- depi-essive psychoses, and various and sundry unhealthy complexes. .ludgez In less technical language, was he slightly balmy? liiverwurst: In less technical language he was completely cookoo! I will prove this, your honor, by the testimony of my client and by the more devas- tating evidence of the very will itself, First, I shall ask my client, Miss Mali- cious Envy. to take the stand, l'lerk: Miss Malicious Envy! IShe rises and comes before him.j Do you solemnly swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth? Envy: I do. tShe goes to the witness chair and sits down.l Iiiverwurst: Miss Envy, how long had you known the deceased? Envy: For four years. Iiiverwurst: Did you ever notice anything unusual about him? Envy: IVhy, yes. You know he always did everything differently and against custom and convention. Iiiverwurst: t'ouId you give the court some examples of this? Envy: IVell, to begin with in 1929 he gave a freshman party. Only those who had paid their dues were supposed to attend, but Vernon Gill and Taylor Hersey came anyway. Schultz tsprings to the feetl : I object .I udge: Objection overruled Iiiverwurst: Go on. please, Miss Envy. Envy: There were twice as many girls as boys, which made the party entirely unbalanced. Very few of the boys could dance, so games were played. It was a ef'ry queer party. Iiiverwurst: Van you recall any other odd acts of the deceased? Envy: XVell, in 151230 Ann XVhite caused a catastrophe at the lunch counter when she whipped a quart of cream to butter tive minutes before recess. It was a pretty queer thing to do. And then Mr. IIeaphy used to plead and beg and even yell in assemblies, trying to persuade 1932 to pay athletic dues and to attend games and give the teams some support. but it never did any good. The class never paid dues. liiverwurst: Did the class go to the games? Envy: No, never. Iiiverwurst: I thank you. Miss Envy. That will be all. lSits.l Judge: Mr. Schultz, do you wish to cross-examine the witness? Schultz trising and glowering at Envyj: Your honor, yes, I do. Miss Envy. during the four years you knew the deceased were you what you would call a friend of his? Envy: Yes, I was always a close friend of his. Schultz: And do you think your testimony is the sort that would come from a frienrlf Doesn't it rather show the selfish, unscrupulous, dishonest qual- ities that make you- Liverwurst Cwildlyl: I object! Judge: Objection sustained. CTO clerkl Strike that out. Go ahead, Mr. Schultz, and please confine your questions to the case at hand, Schultz: Miss Envy, wasn't the party you described so patronizingly sim- ilar to any party given by children thirteen or fourteen years old? Envy: IVhy, yes, I guess so. I never went to any other party. Schultz: Oh, so you never went to any other party! I'll bet I know Why. CHis sarcasm is a dreadful thing.D So you have nothing on which to base your judgment ? You have no way of comparing that party to any other party. You have no reason for saying it was queer, have you? Envy Cquite wiltedj : VVhy, er-er-no-0-o-o. l932: 16 YEAR l500K Schultz: I thought not! Miss Envy, what did M rs.

Schultz: As a matter of fact didn't tl1e teachers all ask where the lovely butter came from? Envy: Yes, I guess they did. Schultz: Miss EllVj', IIEISIIII Mr. Ileaphy IIIll'IlflX had to plead and beg and OVCII yell to get classes to pay their athletic dues .' Envy: Oh, yes, it's part of his routine.

Your testimony has been very helpful. tllliss Envy returns to IICI' seat. and Schultz sits down, looking very satisfied Mr. Liverwurst takes the tloor.D liiverwurst: Your ll0ll0l', in additio11 to the testimony of my elient-atesti- mony wl1icl1 the defense failed to damage-li wisl1 to read so111e excerpts from the actual will. Please bear in mind that these passages were Wl'lllGl1 hy tl1e late 1932 himself. tHe reads from an enormous roll, his voice showing tI1c deepest disgust, and completest contempt for wl1at he 1-eadsb: I leave Nils Ohman's uncany ability to chisel high marks from teachers, to Dorothy Cripps, as tl1e poor girl 111ust have so111e onels help. Is that a sane bequest ? XVould a co1npletely normal 111an leave Ohman's ability to a11y one but Mike Pappas? I will read another: I leave Edward Fetter's managership of the advertising p1'ogra1n of the senior play to Eleanor DeVito, because she loves to give oral themes fillfl sales talks. Does that llldlie sense? Does this make sense: I leave Charles Kussmaul's QlllI1USl?tS1l1 for hockey games to Cathie Rabs in order that sl1e lllay 31111189 herself when t'harles cannot come to see her. XVouldn't a11y sane H1311 know that no girl could be amused by flllnljfllliltg wl1en Kussmaul didn 't COIIIG to see her? NVouldn't Hlly sane 1112111 have left this enthusiasm to Margaret Longden?

Gail could 11ever l1a11dle tl1e1n. NVhy, it would take at least Bozo Turner to do tl1en1 justice. Listen to this-tl1e 1nan who wrote it was supposed to be sane: To tiny Brackett I leave Roy Pederson 's extremely loud voice i11 llllf hope that he lllily find it helpful in bookkeeping. VVould a sa11e 1112111 have thought so? Your ll0ll01', I do 11ot wisl1 to take up any more of your valuable time. I do not need a profusion of details to prove 111y point. I would, however. like to read you just o11e more excerpt. Here it is: I leave Mildred Sukowske's blond hair, Lois Nay's pink cheeks, and Anna Hayes' sweet smile to . . . IIOIIOY Capone I Your honor, I rest. tHe sits down importantly. Schultz rises.D Schultz: Your honor, the arguments presented by lllr. Liverwurst are of utterly no consequence. The passages he read you prove nothing. If, your honor, if Robert Henderson 's ability to supervise Adele Clancy 's French recita- tions had been bequeathed to Forest Auld, rather tl1a11 to tl1at wizard, Donald Brown, then, your honor, one might have l1ad reaso11 to doubt the deceased's sanity. But his choice of beneficiaries was such that there can be absolutely no doubt that he was not only sane but also exceptionally Wise and gifted. I pro- pose first to call as a witness 0116 wl1o knew tl1e deceased well, one who can tell you, Without prejudice, of his true character. Miss 1933. Clerk: Miss 1933. tSl1e comes forwardj Do you solemnly swear to tell the truth, the Whole truth, and nothing but tl1e truth? e F9512 17 1 DIEDHAM H. s. -M- 1933: I do. tShe takes the witness stand.l Schultz: Miss 192333, how long had you known the Class of 19 i 192131: I had known him about three years. Schultz: Did you ever have any reason to doubt his judgment or to believe that his mind was, well, rather hazy? 193153: No, indeed! l always thought very highly of 1932 and respected his judginent in every move he made. Ile had a beautiful clear mind. ,WLDJ -v..t. Schultz: Thank you, Miss 19233. That is all. Judge: Do you wish to cross-examine the witness, Mr. liiverwurst? lliverwurst: I have a few questions. your honor. Miss 1933, you were with deeeased, were you not, on the night ot' May 24, 19331, when in the midst of the prom festivities the decorations, put up hy the deceased, fell upon the amazed guests? 192331: l was, but that was the fault of some playful boy. 1932 would never have done that to any one. liiverwurst: .lust answer my questions, please. IVere you ever with the deceased on any oeeasion when he referred, in any way, shape, or manner to his last will and testament F 1933: Une winter morning' l was with him when we passed Vernon Gill, raeing' through the snow in his trustworthy white sneakers. At that time Mr. 1932 stated that he intended to leave those famous sneakers to Squirt Tilton, so that their reputation eould he upheld for at least another year. Liverwurst: Did you ever hear him admi1'e Howard 1Vatson 's charm for women or say who he thought should inherit this charm? 1933: Ile very often spoke of 1Vatson's dynamic personality: he said he thougrht he would leave it to George Mc-Donald or Max Eaton. Iiiverwurst: Another sign of his foolishness! Did you ever hear him say that he planned to leave Ann YVhite's skill at selling' cookies to her sister Eloise so that the old family tradition would be upheld? 19321 tdouhtfullyl : No, I never heard that. Liverwurst Cjumpingr down her throatl: You're sure you never heard that? 193312: Yes, I'm sure. Oh, don 't ask me these questions! I can't stand it. I loved 19212-I thoufrht everytliing' he did and said was perfect. Oh, Oh, Oh! CShe weeps.J Schultz: Your honor, I think the abuse of my client has gone far enough. I move she be allowed to leave the stand. Liverwurst : I object! -IlldQ't1'Z Objection overruled. The witness may leave the stand. flflilil, assisted hy Schultz, goes hack to her seat. Schultz returns to his position before the -Il1fl,Q'P.l Schultz: Your honor, Mr. Liverwurst read the court some excerpts from the deeeased's will which, he claimed, showed evidence of an unhealthy intellect. I hope your honor will pardon me if I take the time to read in refutation pas- sages that show the clearest insight and finest thought that I have ever been privileged to observe. This, for example, To Dorothy Hill I do bequest Mary IIaley's sniekers in hopes that they will he used more judiciously than in the pastf' Do I need to ask you to admire that? Or take this one: I bequeath Ruth Lonsdale's studiousness and shy, but brilliant re-citations to Bronson IIugg'g'ard to make sure that he maintains his average as an honor student. And here, your honor, he leaves Helen Volk's loud voice and excess Weight to Mary Sullivan, and Ralph LaFreniere's garden outfit to Rachel VVhite. Was Solomon any wiser than 1932? Listen to this: f'I leave Elizabeth Riley's height to Rita Cuinmingls so that she may breathe the purer air of the stratosphere. I leave Eleanor Rhode 's wagging tongue to Florence Stanford, and I leave Charles C' l932 18 YEARBUUK Pizzano's ability to draw cartoons to Doiiald lit-ed. Van any one actually maintain that the author of tlzosw bequests was not sane? Your honor, wiser me11 than l 111ay criticize the deceased for leaving Amlrew l+'e1'1-is's golf clubs to Charles Duckworth, or -lack l1etteney's football ability to llilly Maclutyre, or Robert Glaserts bottle-opening noise to NVe11deIl Aniidon. They may say that these bequests are not perhaps necessary. I will not argue tl1e point, I do 110t 11ecd to argue it. l 21111 proving the deceased was sane, and l otfer one last passage from his will that settles the point conclusively: T leave Taylor Iler- sey's shyness, Henrietta Reid's friendly eo-operation with her teaeliers, and Paul Mulkern's dignified pe11-11a111e of Percy J. Epsom to the distinguished man of letters, Charles Benviefl That, your honor, is my ease. Clle sits down and folds his 21I'1I1S most satisfiedlyj Judge: This ease requires no great deliberatioii. Mr. liiverwurst, you and your clie11t, Miss Malicious Envy, have brought forward no evidence whatso- ever to show that the deceased was lllli sane. NVhy do you waste the time of the court on such stupid cases? NVhy do you try to ruin the reputation of the great men of this world? XVhen 1932 was with you, you saw perhaps only the frivolous side of his nature. Vvlhen you glanced at his more serious side you became alarmed a11d said that he was queer. The testi111o11y I have heard co11- vi11ces me that this will, this most wise Elllfl sagacious will, was written by a class so intelligent, so great, and so noble that we should deeply mourn his de- parture rather than criticize l1is bequests. VVe shall not see his equal again. CURTAIN. Evelyn Jordan, Barbara Miller. i Class Prophecy eAsT RODNEY Iiaieeon. . . .......... . . .Rodney Larcoin HERMAN Se11ULTz. ., .....

Professor: Come to order, please. The homework for tomorrow is to in- vestigate the number of prairie dog holes o11 our CHIIIPUS Hllfl to make a full report of the number and location of these holes. Now, for today's assignment. I told you to investigate tl1e subject of what becomes of high school graduates and to use tl1e members of the class of 1932 of Dedham High School, Dedham, Mass., for your victims, and I assigned various members of that class to Q2lCl1 of you as the field of your research. Mr. Schultz, will you come up a11d read to the class the results of your excavations? Schultz: Sure, professor. CReadingj One of the most striking features of this class was the ability which they showed to co-operate after they left, just as they had done i11 high school. For instance, I found that Ann Vkfhite, a trained nurse, last week assisted the famous Dr. Valdina to perform a delicate operation on Howard Watson, beauty specialist, afflicted with SOft6l1lI1g' of the brain. l932 w DIEDHAM H. S. L. J. Glynn is another who has made his mark. He plays for the New York Yankees and last year smashed 103 home runs Mary Delaney has joined the Shevory and Katchpole Flicker Films, and doubles for G 1-eta Garbo 's successor, Anna Hayes, in the close-ups. llalph La Freniere, who started his career as a gardener, has shifted to more gentle ground and is selling grapenuts made by the Cullen Sawdust Co. ttcw snickersj. l'rol'.: The class will please come to order, or I shall find it necessary to halt these interesting revelations. Schultz: Another outstanding example of the fine work which some of this class arc doing is shown by Henry Dowd, Carlton Duley, Grant Leines, and Iico Dwyer, known during their high school days as the Four Gigolos. They sent their great croquct team, which they coached, against Dedham's ancient rival, Norwood, in the Heaphy Memorial Stadium. The highest hopes were realized when their team swamped Norwood 93eAU, in a furious struggle, a game fitting to be played in the stadium dedicated to Dedham 's great ex-coach. tltlnter Larcomj liarcom: Stage coach. l'rot'.: NVhat did you say, Larcom? Larcom: l said that 's what I say too. Prof.: Proceed, Schultz. Schultz: Two others of the class of 1932 have gone back to their Alma Mater to promote manly sports. lWilliam Gates and XVilliam Guilfoyle have produced at Dedham High a tiddly-wink team which is the state's champion. Gatcs's duties consisted of showing to the squad how to relax in classes and to save their strength for their games. Mary Newman and Katherine Montague have bought the chain of Hearst newspapers so they can run them to suit themselves. Donald lVlcMi1len, Vice President of the U. S., will protect them from the gunmen of Alec Panasuk, rival newspaper operator. Good night, alll Prof.: No comments are necessary. Aside from that, however, your report was good, Schultz. XVhat quotation did the material in the report remind you ot, Miss Throttlebottom? Miss Throttlebottom: Mighty hemlocks from little peanuts grow. Cliaugh- ter from class.D Pi-ot.: NVhat is the matter with the class, anyway? You're all grinning like a pack of Cheshire cats. All right, Miss Opper, let 's hear from you. Miss Opper: Contrary to their habits of comradeship in Dedham High, Archie Hammond and J. T. Longden recently fought for the world's middle- weight championship. Archie won by boxing Longdenls ears so hard that it knocked him bow-legged. George Davis has become the world 's champion flagpole sitter. C. J. Fetter, his trainer, kept away over-curious birds and mosquitoes by throwing chalk which he took during his school days. Frank Valente and Nicholas Scampoli have started a spaghetti factory with a capacity of 42 miles a day. The spaghetti was rather greasy at first, but Frank explained this by the fact that he mistook axle grease for butter. t'armcla De Falco and Audrey Dutton are running an employment bureau and have given their old classmates many a job. The paths of Adaline Brown, Taylor Hersey, and Vernon Gill have recently crossed w.th those of Walter Johnson and Thomas Brooks, the latter the owner of a Dedham movie palace. Brooks was showing Director Hersey's latest mas- terpiece, Paradise Retained , with Adaline Brown as the willowy heroine and Vernon Gill as the ardent lover. Walter J ohnson, the official movie censor of l932 ao YEARBUUK ' Dedham, protested against the love scenes and ordered them cut out. Iirooks refused to do this and the chief of Dcdham's super police squad, Burton Miller, closed the theatre. I was fortunate enough to obtain a phone interview with Mr. Hill. Ilis statement was: HAH I am, and all I ever hope to be, I owe to Dedham lligh School. Not one cent was paid for Mr. tIill's statement. Prof.: Am I to take it that you are trying to be funny, Miss Upper? Miss Opper: Why, professor, how could you? Prof.: Continue, Miss Upper. Miss Opper: Another member whom I interviewed by phone in order to make my report more interesting was Robert Ilill, millionaire wrestler ol' Uak- dale. IIe told me that Levangie's Lasting Ilacepier is very good for stubborn hair. Phyllis Monahan is in the D. II. S. gym assisting Miss Tobin, who is grateful for her assistance in her more arduous duties. Nils Ohman is producing 43,00tJ.00ll Scandinavian Sunset sardincs per week at his fishery on the Mill Pond, East Dedham. The picture of the beau- tiful Barbara Schmalz adorns the sardine cans. Emmie IVillard is head dietitian and feeds the fish so they will be long and skinny and more easily packed in. Ike Boone, still strong and hearty, is head bouncer at Midge Sukowskc's de luxe night club in New York. Music is furnished by -Iimmy Collins' Ilotcha- Hotcha orchestra with Vera Henning and Esther Rutledge piccolo soloists tsitsl. Prof.: Most illuminating. tMiss Throttlebottom starts to squirm and giggled XVhat's tl1e trouble up there, Miss Throttlebottom? Miss Tlirottlebottomz Rodney Larcom's tickling me. Prof.: As I was about to say when I was so rudely interrupted, observe the range of activity and attainment achieved by the members of the class. Such we find in any group. Now, Mr. Ilarcom, will you give your report I? Larcom: I really don 't know what some of this is all about, but I did the best I could. Prof.: That 's what you've been saying for the last I8 years that you've been here. Larcom: I found that the members of the class of 1932 of Dedham Iligh School have gone into positions ranging from Sylvia Gillespie 's occupation as expert coiffeuse at one of Boston 's most exclusive department stores, well known as Hurtle's, to that of Pauline Belanger, who imitates roaring lions over sta- tion VVDHS.

I recently had the opportunity while visiting Dedham to see Russell Greene, one of the members of this class, in a state of dire distress. He had been trav- elling along at a rate of 15 m.p.h. in one of the new Anderson three-wheeled inverted 8's. The strain of this speed was so terrific upon the car that it sud- denly exploded and Russell was hurled against a tree with a sickening thud. His face was so badly battered that his own mother couldn't have recognized him. Chester Musche is another boy who has made good in a big way, with the aid .of Chet Parker. He is the champion racing driver of the world, having recently won the Indianapolis Classic at an average speed of 210 m.p.h. in his marvellous Parker special sixteen. Olan Drake is operating a rapid air transit from Dedham to Boston with a Hying time of 25 minutes. l932 m DEDHAM H.

Another of tl1e fields of challenge is education. lVe who l1ave profited from tl1e present syste111 should be the 111ore able to improve it further. Each genera- tion should atte111pt to better the record of its predecessors. Public education should perforin three functions. lt should prepare tl1e individual to obtain a life work, to get along with l1is fellow-men. a11d to spend his leisure time profit- ably. The ed11catio11 of today produces these results to a partial degree, but it has yet to realize complete success. Too 111any of our youth are sent out of school ill-prepared for a definite occupation, unable to co-operate with their fellow-citizens, lacking self-control and responsibility. Their manners are of the poorest, a11d social skill entirely wanting. Thousands of' them Waste their unoccupied i1l111Q in attending tl1e cheapest movies and dashing futilely about the country. The spending of leisure is of especial interest today because there are very definite pitfalls that arise from tl1e business paralysis, such as the enforced idleness of young Hllfl old, especially serious in the case of those who l1ave never justified their existence by service to tl1e World. It is sadly true that tl1e old proverb, Satan finds some mischief yet for idle hands to do l932 ' 26 T YEARBUUK applies equally to those idle both hy inclination and hy l'oi-ee ol' eii'cumstaru-1-s. Therefore, particularly pertinent to the thousands ot' young' people grzuluatiug from schools all over the country is the question: NVhat shall we do with our uuavoidable leisure? Their training in school should have stimulated to a greater degree interest in science and the arts which could continue their devel- opment in the guise ot recreation. lt is up to us to plan to perfect the peda- gogical system to provide for these three basic needs. To do this, we should realize the uselessness of an accumulation ot tacts when there is no ability to interpret them, the futility of technical skills when there is no capability l'or judgment and reflection. There should be a wide range ot courses and methods adapted to pupils of varied interests and widely differing' capabilities. Through- out the system should be emphasized the development of character and person- ality. Fully to accomplish these aims, it may be necessary to provide public schools for the college age. Teachers should be trained intensively in psychology, so that no genius or talent will go undiscovered, and, on the other hand, no one, no matter how poorly endowed. he unable to find a place in the world or to contribute something to it. Never, in the course of their training, should the physical welfare ot our young citizens be neglected. Each should be taught to carry himself well, to eat sensibly, and to rest sufficiently to offset the strain of modern lite. The nervous breakdown, the mental derangement of an over-ambitious student should become an unknown thing in schools and colleges. The reverse should be equally true. The far more frequent lazy and indiiterent pupil should be aroused to intellectual curiosity and activity, to industry and alertness. The field of our generation 's responsibilities is limitless. I have touched merely the surface of a few of them. Assuming' sufticient knowledge and jiulg- ment to do so, I realize that it would be an impossible task for me to discuss, even to mention, all our national and international problems. I know that not by our generation, nor even by the next, nor the next, will society he made perfect. Each age can only do its best to bring about some degree of improve- ment. High and threatening, our problems loom before us, but we must not shy away like poorly trained horses. Already, we have had practice in clearing easy hurdles, and as we approach the greatest difficulties of our time, every iota of our previous training can and should be utilized to the utmost. But it will be entirely up to us individually, whether we approach the barriers with enthu- siasm and determination to make the best possible record, or whether we turn back and try to sidle around them. Shall we allow a black horse to surpass us, or shall We clear our fiery bars '? Anna-Betty Clark. i932 W - IIDHAMILS.-' Honor Essay GOALS Almost every one has a goal in life. Some set their goals early, not too far beyond the horizon, and by striving constantly and relentlessly. reach them. A small ehild struggling to reach a gaudy toy has such a goal. Nothing else mat-- ters to him until he has elutehed the pretty bauble in his fingers, and then he erows and chuckles with delight, for he has reached his goal. The business man who seeks only a fortune, the aviator who flies for fame, the actor who lives for notoriety--they all have goals as definite as the ehild's and by perseverance like his they often attain them. And yet children, even with pretty toys in their possessions, don't crow and ehuekle constantly, and men who have reached their goals of wealth and fame are not completely happy. Emerson 's suggestion that we should hitch our wagons to stars implies not only that we should seek a worthy and unselfish goal, but that we should seek one so high that we can scarcely hope to reach it, so lofty that the mere striving for it is great. For often those who, after years of persistence, reach their goals find themselves left without a purpose and the zest gone from their lives. Solomon, who said, l gathered me also silver and gold and the peculiar treasure of kings and of the provinces. I gat me men singers and women singers, and the delights of the sons of men, concluded that all was vanity and vexation of the spirit and there was no profit under the sun. And so today we find sueeessful men mired in boredom, famous statesmen trapped in eynieism, and millionaires turning to suicide from a life that has lost its savor. They are happier ones, though they might deny it. who have not reached their goals, who after years of climbing see them still shining as far away apparently as when they started toward them. The student seeking not merely a diploma but all the knowledge of all time, a Pasteur, hunting for the causes and cures of all diseases, a statesman still working for a perfect state-they will never know the satiety of ambition too soon fulilled. They will meet many disappointments, it is true. The diseords of disillusion will often wake them from their hopefulest dreams, and many at the end may feel that they are failures, but they will have had someflzing-perliaps some little progress, cer- tainly the glory of a struggle, which indeed is life itself. John Keats had inscribed on his tombstone. Here lies one Whose life was writ in water. Columbus failed to find the Indies. Sir XVHHQI' Raleigh died without discovering El Dorado or finishing his history of the world. The English were still in France whe11 Joan of Arc was burned. Each of these suffered: eaeh perhaps felt that he had failed: and yet each knew a sublimity undreanit of by those of his contemporaries who longed for food and got it, who sought wealth and became rich, and who tired of life and subsequently died. Probably the happiest of all are those who, having set themselves a goal that seems beyond their reach, yet manage to draw near it, or even attain it, after a lifetime of endeavor. They are the few who, like General VVolfe, can praise God and die happy. They are the ones we hope to imitate. Each student leaving high school has not only plans for the future but a goal as well. The two are quite different. His plans may include Where he will work, what further studies he will pursue, or how he Will spend his summer vacation. His goal will be that thing, as dear to him as life, for which he will do almost anything. Almost anything, for there is no goal so great that it can justify all means of attaining it. No matter how far we may go in business, no matter how many papers print our pictures, or how many mouths cry our fame, if we are conscious of but one unworthy deed done to further our ambi- tions, we will find a bitter taste in our mouths that will turn our triumphs to l932 28 YEARBUUK wormwood and our self-respect to gall. To reach our goals by destroying the goals of others will prove a disappointment, we can not climb to our star on the dead dreams of our fellows. There have always been many who could not seek their goals. A respect for the lives of others made them confine their own, and only in their dreams could they go to the high places of longing. ltobert Koch, prescribing useless medicine for the tuberculosis of German peasants, could only dream of discov- ering the bacillus of the disease, until he was able to leave his little practice and go to Berlin. The painter Gaugin must have been dreaming strange dreams of color and light and form when middle age found him still a stoekbroker, and Ulysses Grant, poor and pitied by his relatives, may have been dreaming ot' Appomattox as he tried to earn a living. These men eventually untied or broke through the knots that held them from pursuing their goals, but others have remained tied all their lives. VVe do not hear of these others. lVe do not. seeing them reaeh their goals, look back and mark the paths they took. XVe are not aware that they even have goals. Occasionally we realize that some person we always thought of as ordinary and unimaginative is eating lns heart out because family ties prevent him from sailing to some strange, sparsely-lettered country on the map he studies nightly. Occasionally we learn that poverty is keeping a young man from studying medicine though he dreams of serums and breath-taking operations. Occasionally an imagination like Thomas Gray's can find Minute, inglorious Miltonsn in country churehyards. But most of the time we assume that those who live ordinarily are thinking ordinarily and can not understand our high aspirations. The pity of it is that they can understand themg they sometimes understand them better than we. Our goals seem perhaps more desirable to them because they ca11 not even start toward them. And yet they sometimes achieve goals that we never even dream of. The self-sacrifice that keeps them from seeking their earlier goals leads them often to a height where they can look down on even the stars we climb to. Parents know this well, and many of them, unable to climb to the goals they marked in youth, Hnd, in watching their children climb, a different goal and a better one. And those that lack this consolation are still not greatly to be pitied, for, in spite of all their thwarted hopes and their dreams that never reaeh reality, they still do have their goals. They still have their upward-lookings, and their strivings, however circumscribed, still are there. The ones we should pity rather are those very few who look always at the ground and never long, even hopelessly, for the heights. We can afford to pity them, for we have goals. Like Tennyson Ulysses, whose purpose was To sail beyond the sunset, and the baths Of the western starsfl we can say, It may be that the gulfs will wash us down. We may, in fact, get no nearer to our goals than the first faint strivings and the constant dreams, but we shall, at least, look upward.
