It was a queer looking collection of odd-shaped tubes and wires, all coming from a round glass-like ball. The savant told me to sit down in front of it, look carefully into the ball, and concentrate on some one thing which was of interest to me. | did as he had commanded, and began thinking over my high school days. Suddenly a group of people appeared before my very eyes. As the vision became clearer, | recognized David O'Toole, Class president both Junior and Senior years. After Dave came Barbara Bicknell, vice-president Junior year, and Janet Roukes, vice-president Senior year. Then Bob Safford and Eddie Seaver, our Bae secretaries, and Elsie Marquis and Barbara Bicknell, class treasurers, appeared. After the officers had vanished, | saw the football players of our class. In the middle of the first group, in which were Frank McCann, William Dyer, Romuald Lachapelle, and Brendan Toolin, was a huge placard, giving the following _ information: 1929-—Leominster 6-Fitchburg 3. The second group, with David O'Toole, Edward Seaver, William - Lane, James Sullivan, and Paul Chase added to the first list, came along. Their placard read: 1930—Leominster 6— Fitchburg 0. Then the 1931 players appeared, and | saw that Ralph Person had joined the ranks. The sign said: Fitch- burg 6—-Leominster 0. . The baseball squads were next in order, with David O'Toole, James Sullivan, Earl Pike, Frank Ippolito, Daniel D’Onfro, Carrol] Miles, Brendan Toolin, William Swanson, Edward Seaver, and Frank McCann in their midst.” — The basket-ball squads followed the diamond players: Dave O'Toole, Earl Pike, John Pasay Si Span and Bill Dyer. The track stars, Bill Dyer, Frank McCann, ““Doc’”’ Toolin, Richard Hayes, Francis Erickson, Bill Lane, Gordon Billings, and Vernon Woods, winner of the road race in 31, completed this line of boys. ate girls’ basket-ball, track, and hockey teams rece up the following ranks. Among these girl athletes were Janet - Roukes, Priscilla Griffin, Rosanna LaCroix, Geraldine LaBelle, Winifred Mackey, Eunice Gamache, Alice McManus, Barbara McEvoy, Dorothy Snow, Ruth Caisse, and Genevieve Bouvier. Then the three girls who went to Detroit in “31 to sing in the National Chorus vere. They were Genevieve Bouvier, Eleanor Legere, and Eunice Houston. The ‘Magnet,’ our school magazine, was next on review. Bob Safford, editor, and Janet Roukes, Geraldine LaBelle, Edna Bourgault, and others who had helped to make it a success during our high school career passed on parade. All was blank for a moment, and then | saw a scene from “Come Out of the Kitchen,” our class play. The cast was as follows: Elsie Marquis, Janet-Roukes, Priscilla Griffin, Phylis Rowley, Barbara Bicknell, David O'Toole, James New a man, Earl McEvoy, Olen Marshall, William Dyer, Frank McCann. Suddenly the scene changed, and | saw figures swaying as they danced in a room decorated with green and ie This picture of the Junior Prom faded only to change to another dance, the Senior Prom. Now the dancers glided over the floor beneath silver and green hearts. All at once Janet Roukes, Geraldine LaBelle, and Francis Erickson came into view. Why were they here? Oh, yes, they wrote the class essays, didn't they? And with them was Verne Follansbee, who composed the class poem. “Well, how does it work?”’ asked my friend, the inventor. “It's a wonder!” | replied. “‘It has given me the whole history of our class — the largest (as yet), a the best class which ever graduated from L.

You could have seen my eyes bulge when ! saw Lansing Bicknell, who asked - if we cared to explore the ship. ory As we entered the kitchen, we saw Red Marshall diligently washing dishes. Passing into the dining room, we saw John Gorman and his Connecticut Yankees. He had taken Rudy’s place as leader of that famous orchestra. That night at dinner we were delighted to see Theresa Barriere, who was the head waitress and who had working under her five girls of the Class of 1931. They were Ruth Allen, Katherine Benson, Alice Berg, Juliet Caron, Dulcie Harrington, and Theresa Armstrong. We also caught a glimpse of the steward, who was none other than Edward Freel. age Se a “Ah, charmed, was the stilted reply from the Lord as he kissed our hands most graciously. “ ‘74 When we went on deck, we spied Priscilla Griffin reclining non-chalantly in asteamer chair beside that of a most a distinguished looking gentleman.

J. Z. We are now going to broadcast from the Metropolitan Opera House a few scenes from Richard Hayes’ latest opera, ‘(O, Give Me Something to Eat.’ The leading roles wll be sung by the famous singers, Eunice Huston and Winthrop Lear.’’ Imagine our excitement when we heard those well known names! After listening to the singing, we went down to the radio room to send telegrams of congratulations to Eunice and Winthrop. You never could guess whom we found to be the wireless operator! Well, it was Gale Sloan Tyler, another friend. He wes full of business and barely spoke to us. After two more days we landed in Paris, where Doc’ left us to go to his conference in Berlin. We rested for a day or so before we went to see the sights of Paris. Tuesday morning, Janet wanted to visit the dress shops, so we went to some that we had been told about before we left home. In the first one we saw Dorothy and Madeline Andrews as manikins. Ruth Garland was in charge of all the manikins, and her dress proved her work distinctly. Louis Dube was the stylist in the same shop, and as we were old friends he gave us the best of service. He told us that Rosamond Cook had a charming art studio on LaRue des Fleurs. We bustled into a cab and were surprised to find that our driver was none other than Martin Ashe, who took us to Rosamond 's studio free of charge. ‘Just for the sake of old times,’ hz said. Rosamond’s studio was ideal, and Pearl Charron and Agnes Soucy were studying under her supervision. We had a delightful tea with her and reminisced a great deal, of course. “Janet, did you know that Barbara McEvoy was studying French here? They say she knows as much if not more about the old language than the professor himself. There is a rumor thet her engagement to this professor is to be an- nounced in the fall. | shouldn’t wonder if it was true, said Rosamond. We learned also that Helen Dupee was a companion to a very wealthy woman:from the United States and that they were traveling around the world. We were thrilled at the thought of it. What an opportunity for Helen! We heard, too, that George Jones was giving dancing lessons to young American debutantes. We then went to see Barbara, who introduced us.to the professor. He took the three of us out to dinner and the theatre, after which we went to acabaret. The master of ceremonies at the cabaret attracted our attention. “Ladies and Gentlemen, this evening we are to be highly favored by a little American dancer who has been the shining light on Broadway for the past season, Miss Marion Gaffney. She brings her own accompanist, Miss Arlene Farland.’ Another member of the American entertainers was Miss Genevieve Bouvier, who sang a group of popular Broadway hits. _ Our attention was then drawn to the conductor of the orchestra, Robert Howe, wno had evidently forsaken his base viol for the baton, with which he was cleverly conducting the orchestra. Suddenly, Alice Julian and Mary Cav- anaugh appeared, leading the chorus. ; This evening ended our respite from work, and the next morning Janet started her graduate work in French, which was to last for four weeks, and | started my studying under M. Kicke Highye. This necessitated changing our hotel in order to be nearer our classes, and upon entering our new temporary abode we were pleasantly surprised to find Georgianna Gamblin at the desk. She gave us the finest rooms in the hotel. Ronald Rand carried our bags to our rooms. ‘He had tired of the monotony of life in America and had sought a change. When our four weeks of study were over, we eagerly sought new fields of adventure. Our gaze was turned toward the horizon of London. In the lobby of our hotel we were confronted by a sign which announced the arrival of the two American golf champions and a party of enthusiasts, the champions being none other than Ear! McEvoy and Leo Tessier. After registering at the desk, we were about to ascend in an elevator to our rooms, when some familiar voices called our names. We were greeted by Ed Seaver, that All-American Star, and Bill Dyer. With them was a stunning girl, who, we soon learned, was Bill’s wife. We later found that Bill’s high school dream of marrying an heiress (and then having her as an ‘inspiration’ for making his ‘‘million’’) had come true. Other members of the party included Natalie Pierce and Phil Rowley, America’s lead ing movie stars. Out at the club that afternoon the golf ‘‘pro,”’ upon our being presented, introduced us to his wife, who was none other than Audrey Marshall. While following the players, Bill, who had moved back to Leominster (after making his “‘million’’), said that he nad (23) NUDE niemverne ee 7 2 = e CLASS PROPHECY (Continued) just made Edna Bourgault his private secretary. He also informed me that Gerry. Labelle was sales manager for the Phoenix Hoisery Company. |! was most interested to learn that Norman Ordway hed succeeded Mr. Rogers, who had left =. Leominster High School for higher institutions of learning. Vincent Lacouture was working trigonometry at L. H. S. Georse Gilmore and William Buss had also been annexed to the faculty. He added that Fred Allen and Burton Blake were in the poultry business in Sterling. ae: . mi Ed said that they had passed a circus on the way from Italy and had seen outside one of the camps, Jimmy Simpson, feeding giraffes. The second day of the tournament Jud Smith arrived in a foreign-made roadster. He had been sojourning in Russia, attempting to enlighten Soviet leaders in regard to their way of governing. : Regretfully, on the third day we left our old friends and began our voyage home. We were astonished to meet . Ralph Pierce, Russell Willoughby, and Kenneth Pillsbury, who had been working with Mr. Einstein in Germany. Gene- vieve Tremblay was the ship’s nurse, and Eunice Gamache was directing athletics on the boat. Reports from Nzw York said that the one and only E. Loren Pike, that sensational baseball man, was smashing all home-run records in the big leagues. And Harold Starrett had been made commander-in-general of the United States . Army. - oe Lee Upon arriving in New York we were told to wait until the inspectors, who were none other than Albert Mazzafero and Neil Dix, went through our trunks. | noticed a group of young girls, immigrants, who were being given directions by some capable young women Knowing some girls who did social work, Janet and | went over to the group and were overjoyed to find Barbara Bicknell, assisted by Ruth Pierce, Adelaide Pinder, and Dorothy Nutting. “ Later, on our way to a taxi, we-noticed two police women who were talking seriously to one another, and to our 4 amazement we discovered them to be Beryll Parker and Julia Poulson. After a few hurried words with them, we hailed a passing taxi which took us to a hotel where we stayed but one night, not too short a time, however, to find that Ethel Noak was hostess there. While on a hurried shopping tour the next morning, before leaving for the station, we met in : Macy’s, Irene Veasey, who was head buyer in the toy department. r On the train going through the Adirondacks, where we were to spend two months, | picked up a Boston paper and saw in headlines, the announcement that Vernon Woods had been pronounced a second DeMar by all critics In the dining car, who should be sitting directy opposite us but Mr. and Mrs. Richard Wagner. We learned that they were returning from their honeymoon in the Orient. We both knew Mrs. Wagner as the former Evelyn Sayles. She said that Dorothy Wood had married an army officer, and that they were living in Morocco where he was stationed. They had recently met Germaine Pinard, wno was resting at the Villa of Mrs. Van Styde, the former Ruth Boyden, now a wealthy widow. When we reached our lodge in the mountains we were delighted to observe a Gyosy cana nearby, oe immediately ja decided to visit the fortune teller whom we assumed would be there. Accordingly, after a refreshing sleep that night, we turned our steps toward the camp early the next ‘morning. as The wizened old hag who was the object of our visit, upon being presented with our fee, told us ina erred a voice that she would tell us what some of our old school friends were doing. As she gazed into her crystal, mumbling incoherently and waving her hands over the globe, she looked up, quickly saying: “Gordon Billings is the track coach of East Burlap University and Lester Grimes is Professor of Psychology in the same school. ‘Speed Demon’ Paul Chase has just won the 500-mile auto race at Indianapolis. | see, also, Ronald McLean as the big butter and egg man of Pratt’s Junction. Ruth Caisse is on Broadway, showing the big city her talents as an actress. Alice McManus is co-starring with Winnie Lightner in the movies.

And now, my young ladies, toknow more you must give me more money. . , ae - We hurriedly took the required money from our purses and handed it to her. She continued: “Next month, my friends, Miss Winifred Mackay will swim the channel in a record breaking time. Francis Lundigan oe will go along beside her in a boat. Ah!

And now, that is all that | can see.’’ Reluctantly we returned to the lodge where we found a visitor awaiting us. It was none other than Evelyn Weston, wo had come to the mountains to do some sketching. As it was cool, being 3 typical mountain evening, we went inside and sat around the cheery fire-place to talk. Evelyn told us that Winifred Malone and Dorothy Regan were taking private lessons from Helen Wills Moody, and that Elva Ray had just written one of the best novels of the day. And more yet, Violet Nelson had married a wealthy Sterling farmer, and Emile Bessette is teaching French in the Junior High at Leominster. She continued: “| saw Ruth Billings a few weeks ago, and she said that Wesley Sargent has become a real estate dealer and is doing wonders with old Whalom Park. He has developed it into one of the best summer resorts in that part of New England. By the way, did you know that Ruth was teaching English in the Providence High School? Evelyn Hooper is private secretary to her brother, who is city surveyor. Florence Holbrook has a darling tea room in West Sleepy Valley on the road to Nowhere.” Leo O’Brien and Henry Ford are touring the country looking for old Fords for museums. While we were talking | switched on the radio and was amazed to hear the announcer give the name of ‘‘Miss Marion Day, who was to talk on the problems of the “Golf Widow.” !n the midst of the flutter of excitement caused by crowding around the instrument, it suddenly became noiseless; upon the arrival of a radio man | was astonished to see Herbert Johnson, tools in hand, come to fix it. He soon found the remedy, and as he worked informed us that Cy Swanson had received a medal for being the world’s most ‘quiet man.’’ As the voice of the announcer once more greeted us we were being told that two of the world’s outstanding boxers were to be refereed by John Faticanti, who had gained recognition as a referee in Leominster High School years before. We were also told that another referee was to assist him. It was none other than our old friend Clem Lanza, who hed left basketball for the ring. The an- nouncer continued: “Well, folks, before the bout in which Giant Brissmann will fight Midget Ippolito to contend for the National Championship, let me tell you of a few of the celebrities who are seated around the ring. On my left is Romuald La- chapelle, coach of Notre Dame steel eleven. Beside him is seated the foremost agent for Wrigley's Chewing Gum, Ray Mclsaac. “Never stop chewing,’ is his motto. With him is Jim Sullivan, former Boston College star end.. Near him | see Professor Bernard Courtney, who has been contributing those articles on the “Youth of Today’’ in the Literary Digest.

Christine Lavalee, the famous master of French, accompanied by her secretary, Miss Rosanna LaCroix, just arrived. And now the fighters have entered the ring!” We will not say any more about the match but will continue by telling the contents of a letter which Janet received from Mrs. James Quill, formerly Dorothy Snow. - “| have been thinking of the old class lately and have been looking around for news.� It is expected that Mary Gallagher is to become vice-president of the Dupont firm in Leominster. Barbara Harris is the owner of Boutique Des Chapeaux Chics on 5th Avenue in New York City, and is assisted by Helen Illsley. Agnes Gillooly is superintendent of nurses at the Leominster Hospital. Catherine Despotopulos is a professional basketball player. John Lavin has just written a book entitled “The Secret of My Success.” Clarice McKenney is working in the office at Leominster High School. Phil Loughlin and Clifton Merithew, when they are not occupied with their snow-shoe business, are directors of the Leominster National Bank.’ This ended the account of the activities of our old school friends, and | left Janet to finish perusing her letter while | went out on the terrace to reed. A maid soon appeared to announce the arrival of Mr. Carroll Miles, who wished to see Dr. Toolin. Wevisited a while, and he told me that he had taken over his father’s stationery business. He left shortly to continue his journey through the mountains. As Janet and | watched the roadster round the curve in the road, we suddenly remembered that after ten years we knew what all the members of the old Class of 31 were doing. Going back to the terrace we turned our faces toward the west, and as the twilight shadows gathered around us, we thought, “What a small world it is after all.’’ Eleanor Legere Janet Roukes Brendan Toolin (25) TE WAG Neg MAGNET BOARD Anne Burdett, Mara Trafton Robert Safford, Janet Roukes, Eric Mager MAGNET BOARD That the ‘““Magnet’’ has been a successful publication was proved beyond doubt at the C.M.1.P.A. Conference in Athol, when the prizes were announced for the contest of best features in the magazines of the various high schools of the Association. Of fourteen awards, the ‘‘Magnet’’ received the following seven: Prize Essay, ‘The Spirit of the Rain,’ by Faith Karlson; Prize Story, ‘The Beggar, -by Robert: Safford; General Excellence, for the issue of April, 1930; Prize Athletic Department, December, 1930; Prize News Department, December, 1930; Prize Drawings: First Prize for the Historical Map of Leominster, by Cecile Paine; Second Prize for the Literary Heading Cut, by Rosamond Cook Three issues of the ‘Magnet’ have been published this year, as usual; one at Christmas, one at Easter, and now, the Commencement issue. The Magnet Board has met in the Library during the club periods on every other Thursday throughout the year, and immediately previous to the publication of each issue, the board has spent the greater part of several !ong, tedious after- noons in Room 1. - = On January 9, seven members of the Board and its able director, Miss Colley, attended a conference of the Central Massachusetts Interscholastic Press Association in Orange. Athol High Schoo! was the scene, on May 15, of another conference, which was attended by eleven persons from Leominster. Incidentally, two members of the Magnet Board were officers during this year, of the C.M.I.P.A.—Robert Safford, President, and Mara Trafton, Secretary.

During the yeer each member has given a prepared lecture on some phase of electricity or radio. These reports have been very instructive, and much benefit has been derived from them. Several members have constructed either short-wave or broadcast-band sets for their own use, and some heve learned the continental code. A library of radio publications was established early in the season, and under the management of Kendal McRae has proved its worth. . At one of the meetings a radio set was put in operation by the members, but reception was very poor, due to the interference from the mechanism controling the school clocks. The greatest project of the club was a trip to the Worcester stations, W.T.A.G. and W.O.R.C. on the eve of our last vacation. Twenty members accompanied by Mrs. Marlowe, faculty advisor, made the trip. At Worcester they were shown through the studios of both stations and allowed to go through the control room of W.O.R.C. where the operator explained the various apparatus in detail. After going over the stations, the entire club enjoyed a talking picture on Africa. x ?

At the regular meetings of the Club various phases of aviation have been discussed—namely, aerodynamics, aerostatics, airplane construction, instruments, motors, and designs. Membership in the Club was limited and depended upon merit along aeronautical lines.

Wiggins, local. manufacturer and airplane salesman, spoke on “Aviation in General.” On March 26th, Mr. Stanley S. Burnham, newly elected teacher of U. S. History, gave a talk on “My Experiences as an Airplane Instructor During the World War.” The month of May was a busy one for the Aviation Club. On May 1st the Club visited the East Boston airport. At the U. S. Army hangars they were introduced to Lieut. Salisbury, who showed them the entire outfit of the U.S. Air Corps. Among things seen there were the training planes for student fliers, a plane equipped for blind flying, and the repair shop. A n instructive talk was given on ‘The Principles of the Parachute.’ (Parachutes were on demonstration, and much valuable information was received.) In the new administration building are located the general offices, Immigration Bureau, U. S. Weather Bureau, Western Union, ticket office, waiting rooms, and cafeteria. | Mr. Hamilton of the Curtiss-Wright Service and Mr. Hardy of Skyways Inc. showed the boys the operations of their respective companies. At the East Coast Aircraft Corp. they met Mr. Eddy, who explained the purpose of his company. This corporation is New England's first exclusive aircraft sales and service organization. On May 21st an assembly was given by the Aviation Club. Motion pictures of “The Maneuvers of the Air Corps’ and “The Training of an Air Corps Cadet’? were shown through the co-operation of the U. S. Air Corps. A framed picture of Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh was presented to the school as a gift of the Aviation Club. One warm afternoon, also in May, the Club decided to see what Leominster looked like from the air, and so hired the plane of the Wachusett Airways, and with Capt. Jack Langley took a ‘hop.’ We hope that in future years this Club will have the success that we did.

Janet Roukes—President Martha Westine—Vice-President Anne Burdett—Secretary Ruby McRae—Treasurer During the year the French Club has had activities of varied natures. One of the first things we accomplished wes | the establishing of correspondences with various school-boys in France. A number of extremely interesting letters have been received, and some of them have been read in club meeting. . When it was decided to get French Club pins, a committee was appointed to look into the matter, and after much hustling about, ¢ pin-was finally settled upon. It was a small silver pin with a diminutive ruby in the center, and a silver number guard. It then, of course, became necessary to have dargent’ in the treasury, so heads were put together to devise means. _In spite of the unemployment difficulty, Le Cercle managed. through a food sale, to glean sufficient pennies to buy the pins, and they soon became e reality. The food sale was held in Ames Butter Store, and much run- ning about (and, | suspect, secret tastings of inconspicuous parts of delicious- looking foods) was to be seen in that vicinity on the day of the sale. “A good time was hed by all!’ The next project, the importation of French dolls to be dressed in peasant costume by the members, necessitated another sale. This time it was delicious deuann ue) ten dozen of which were distributed on a given day by each member. This sale also proved successful, but because of the high tariff on dolls, that project had to be abandoned. _ During the year the club has been working on a very complete note-book, which will be sent to France. lt contains postcards of Leominster, snap-shots of the members, typical assignments in all the subjects studied at the High School, samples of dress-materials, stamps, and pictures of American styles. The last big activity of the year was the production of a play in French. It was ‘‘Arlequinade, a light comedy with music, singing, and folk dancing. (32) . 3 THE MAGNET——-———-———- . .

Looking back over the year, we feel we can see some worthy accomplishments, and, looking ahead to another year, we feel that the Club is going to grow because of the foundation laid by the present Senior group, together with suggestions for future activities. . Some of our accomplishments for the year include the following: (1) Twelve of our members have received certificates entitling them to membership in the Order of Gregg Artists for excellency in writing of shorthand notes. (2) |n March the International Order of Gregg Artists Contest took place, and Rosanna La Croix and Marie Baril were awarded gold pins. | (3) Interest in the State Civil Service Examination has been shown. Alice Julian, who took the examination in Worcester on April 24th, was the only student who could meet the age requirement of 18 years. (4) Our schoo! wil! have the privilege of sending two students to the Massachusetts State Shorthand and Type- writing Contest at Boston on May 23rd. Edna Bourgault, Geraldine LaBelle (Alice Julian, substitute) will compete in the Class A group, taking dictation at 100 words per minute for five minutes and transcribing. (5) The Club has kept in touch with latest business methods, received advice to stenographers from business executives, and been inspired by success talks from the Gregg Writer, a monthly magazine to which the members have subscribed. _ A successful Club year has been in no small measure due to the efforts of its members: Dulcie Harrington, Alice Julian, Clarice McKenney, Geraldine LaBelle, Edna Bourgault, Mary Colburn, Theresa Armstrong, Juliet Caron, Helen Dupee, William Buss, and Neil Dix.

The members of the club were divided into groups of ten or eleven, each with a chairman and faculty advisor; these groups provided the entertainment for the club meetings, in which short plays, dialogues, and readings were siven. _ i For the Christmas assembly, a one-act play “The Child Who Saw Santa Claus’ was given. Simone Fife, Ray Carr, Eunice Huston, Eleanor Legere, Earl Pike, and Audrey Marshall took part in this production. Ta ee On May 15, four members of the club, Eleanor Legere, Phyllis Rowley, Bartley Sweeney, and Ray Carr, went to Pawtucket, R. |., to take part in a Dramatic Contest given there. Representing Leominster High School, these people — presented a one-act play, ‘Ruby Red.”’ . The club thus concluded a successful year. ; (34) POA Ari Vie CaN Ed) DEBATING CLUB Frank Bartimo, Francis White, Nicholas Mascis Simone Fife, Maurice McDonough, Barbara Paul DEBATING CLUB Due to the general lack of interest the Debating Club had to be discontinued this year, but six members of the school remained loyal and with hard work were able to gain a place in the finals at Clark University. Winning in the preliminaries on March 13, against Shrewsberry, on the question, Resolved that ‘“Massachusetts should enact 4 law providing in principle for Compulsory Unemployment insurance to be contributed to by both Employee and Employer,’ the team journeyed to Worcester, on May 15th. There, due to lackof experience and the excellent competition the team was defeated. On May fourth, four of the group went to dinner at the local Rotary Club, and entertained them by a short debate on the question, Resolved that ‘“Chain stores are a detriment to a Community. Because so many of the Rotarians are independent merchants they were afraid they would be prejudiced in the alfirmative's favor; therefore, they did not render a decision. However, they applauded the debaters liberally and thought the school was very well represented by these four scholars. The team this year was composed of four Sophomores and two Juniors, as follows: Simmone Fife Francis White Barbara Paul Frank Bartimo Maurice McDonough Nicholas Mascis We are looking forward to a more successful year next fall.

Orchestra has been very skillfully directed by Miss Lucile Brown throughout this year. One would hardly guess that the finished numbers produced now are rendered by the same orchestra that struggled through the first appearance. - Three of the veterans: Louis Simard, George Gilmore, and John Carrescia went to the Eastern Music Supervisors’ Convention held in Syracuse in March. Needless to say, they did splendid work. __ Five members of the organization, the three aforementioned veterans with the addition of Richard Hayes and Ricardo Cavioli, were sent to represent Leominster in the New England High School Festival Orchestra. These boys played under the direction of Mr. Francis Findley, leader of the Festival Orchestra. Orchestras and bands conpzting for prizes were present from schools throughout Boston and New England. The big event was held at tae Boston Garden on Saturday evening, May 23, 1931. According to all reports, it was an enjoyable occasion, and a very exciting event for the performers. - ( 37) SENIOR PEAY AC AST. Earl McEvoy, Olen Marshall, Miss Van Amburg, David O'Toole, James Newman Wm. Dyer, Janet Roukes, Phylis Rowley, Elsie Marquis, Priscilla Griffin, Barbara Bicknell, Frank McCann SENIOK = Ge A aoe ele, On the evening of April 10th, the Rialto Theatre was the scene of the Annual Senior Class Play. This year the Class of 1931 chose “Come Out of the Kitchen, from the pen of A. E. Thomas, which was adapted from the story of the same name by Alice Duer Miller. Miss Erna Van Amburg, of the faculty, coached the play. The story was of great human interest. It presented the predicament of the Dangerfields, an aristocratic southern family who had been obliged to rent their palatial home to a northerner. This gentleman from the north refuses to have colored servants in his home, and unable to secure any white servants, the Dangerfields are placed in the ignominious situation of being obliged to act the part of servants. Mr. Crane, the northerner, played by David O'Toole, becomes dissatisfied with the servants and discharges them one by one until only Olivia Dangerfield, portrayed by Elsie Marquis, is left. The gentleman from the north becomes quite fond of his cook, and at the end of the play he discovers that she is none other than Olivia Dangerfield, the girl whom he has wanted to meet from the first The Characters were as follows: “Olivia-Dangertelds ties ence, wee Elsie Marquis =Burton ‘Grane. s.

(38) Heraeus INGE SCENE-IN PLAY FRENCH PLAY Much credit is due the French Club of our high school for the production of ‘“Arlequinade,”’ a light comedy in French, with provincial songs, dances, and costumes. This play was so well received when it was presented before the assembly on May 26 that the Club decided to give it again on June 1st, in the afternoon. The French Club from Fitchburg High School, parents and friends of the players, and others interested in the activities of the Club were invited to attend. Mrs. Laserte gave a most interesting story in French after the play had been presented. After the singing of the Mar- seillaise, the Club served refreshments to all the guests.

I'm here at last,” they knew not what pleasures (and displeasures) were in store for them, especially in the line of athletics. The Sophomore boys attained distinction in the annual road race on April nineteenth, and thus took possession of the beautiful cup for this. year. Many boys arz out for track, and some will undoubtedly win honors in the various events. i i Tellier, Sweeney, Wiley, O'Toole, Cavaioli, Veasey, and several others were very prominent in varsity football. Bad: luck seemed to follow the team, and it forced three of these men to stay out most of the season because of broken collarbones. Since a great many Senior players are graduating, it is expected that this year’ $ “Sophs”’ will make great inaterial for- 3. bs . “During the winter months, the basketball squad had a fairly successful season. Sullivan and Wiley were on the varsity team, and many Sophomores were on the second team. The most outstanding accomplishment of the Sophomore girls is their undefeated field: hockey’ team, captained by M. Bgereses ‘thirteen-members won their numerals. “In basketball, the feminine six met the Junior High Team with an overwhelming victory of thirty- seven to eleven. A few of our more promising girl athletes played with the varsity squad. There ere also many candidates out for girls’ track this season, and the Sophomore delegation looks promising. We believe we have a future Caruso’in Bart Sweeney, who took the male lead in the operetta ‘Sonia.’ Bart's singing pleased everyone and helped to make the operetta the success it was. In the Glee Club, there are a number of Sophomores whose singing and acting in the operetta formed a delightful background. Some enterprising‘ Sophomores were elected to the Magnet’ Board and have succeeded very well. Plans are being made for the reunion of last year’s class of Room Twenty, Junior High School, at Spec Pond.

The €lass Ae 1939 Bena its career most auspiciously by being the first class to be graduated from the New Junior High School. We christened the new school system of nine grades, three years of high school, and all one has to do to realize the success of the system is to gaze upon the Class of 1932. In the fall of 1999. we started school as Sophomores. On tne athletic field we soon had some Gee results from our athletically. inclined boys. .A decisive. victory over the Junior High in class football and a marked improvement or the boys on the varsity squad were the sum total of our athletic activities that autumn. __. The Junior. Glass-has: made: one. of the best showings -of any class in school athletics: Bill Pennery, Ray Carr, Paul Rand, Warren Bentley, John Joseph, and Walter Brown were on the varsity football team; Arthur Leahy and Paul Rand were on the basketball team; and Dan D’ Onfro, Paul Rand, and Art Leahy represented the class on the baseball nine. High scholastic records’ are necessary if a student wishes to be on the ‘Magnet’ Board, yet a goodly number of Juniors are on the staff and board. The Junior Class also took part in debating, for Simmone Fife and Baroara Paul were on the team. | During the winter term a most successful ‘prom’ was conducted in the schoo! auditorium.

Martha Westine Francis Toolin — (41) THE MAGNET CLASS ESSAYS BOOKS FOR THE INDUSTRIALIST’S LEISURE Working hours today are such that the industralist has more time for reading and thinking than he had in the past. Therefore, we shall consider those books which he may read for instruction as well as for pleasure. Because all books alfect the minds of their readers, who, in turn build up the industries of the country, the books read by employers and employees have a marked effect on industry. For this reason, we shall consider the beneficial qualities existent in really valuable literature and glance at a few books which seem to possess these qualities. All that has ever been known and felt by man is probably treasured up somewhere in books, marvelously preserved for our use and delight. Books live and tell us of the past when the events and persons of history have faded away. The works of Shakespeare, Milton, and Dickens will never die. They were given to the world to teach people the good and evil of life and incidentally to preserve the manners and customs of the times. There is hardly a moral of society that is not enclosed in the covers of some book, for the judgment and profit of the people. The great Roman orator, Cicero, said “Books are the food of youth, the delight of old age; the ornament of pros- perity, the comfort and refuge of adversity; the delight at home and no hindrance abroad; companions by night in travel- ling in the country... He was indeed right. Moreover, books are amusers, and the thoughts of the wisest, wittiest men help to pass an otherwise idle hour. Reading expansd a person's mind and gives him a better undelstebgiaa of human nature, showing him how to tolerate other people's views and ideas. Literature keeps before its readers a higher ideal. By reading books one acquires a vision toward which to work. Then, by reading about the lives and accomplishments of other people, he is struck with the desire-to do better himself and to strive toward something higher. Books make him master of his own language, for by reading he studies the lan- guage of the best writers and benefits by it. Books and literature affect industry more than one might at first believe. As we think about it, however, we can see aclose connection. ‘To learn more is to earn more is a slogan factory owners and managers use to further education among employees. The happy contentment promoted by reading the best books is one of the largest factors in creating harmony and union among the employees. They learn to sympathize with each other and to work together. If the workman is satisfied, the industry will probably be profitable. However, if he reads books of low moral and social standing, the factory life will show it, in that the employee will be restless and dissatisfied. In reading he learns that there is something bigger and better than ‘‘self’’ and that service and co-operation with others mean a good deal if he would succeed. Books affect the juvenile employees even more than the older ones. In many cases the reactio n of reading books is much the same as that of seeing moving pictures. It is the youthful mind that is ready to absorb fantastic ideas and to try and carry them out even though they may be against the welfare of the industry. Some of the large concerns publish book lists in which an employee can find only the best books for his reading. Other information concerning the finest books may be obgained through criticisms found in magazines and newspapers. The librarians are always ready and willing to give advice. It is believed by some people that to read the best books one must necessarily be a student of literature. This is entirely a wrong conception. Any person who is ready and willing to tolerate the ideas of writers, old and new, can indeed read books with a great deal of comprehension and contentment. He who reads with a broad mind and with open eyes will expand his own field of thought and be better fitted for the business world. In considering several books for reading, | believe, for those who like adventure, there is no book at present which could be read with more pleasure and understanding than Admiral Byrd’s “‘Little America.” The story of the explorer’s trails and hardships, as well as of the triumph over the great icy barriers of the South Pole, is vividly told in this book. By reading about such a fine and admirable type of person as Byrd, the industrialist perceives the nobility in life and is seized with a desire to advance himself in the world. In this age many people do not have time to read the lengthy books of a generation ago, so the modern short story has become very popular. The works of O. Henry and Booth Tarkington are most interesting. O. Henry usually tells us of the common classes of people and of their struggles, while Booth Tarkington relates the pranks of the American boy. However, for those who still care for the novels, books by Donne Byrne, who portrays his love of the sea and sports of (42) THE: MAGNET- ba ClLASSHESSAYS (Continued) various kinds in his works, and those by Willa Cather and Edna Ferber, who teach moral lessons in their books, are much appreciated. Books of this sort, which promote an understanding of life and character, make the industrialist have more sympathy for other people, and thus enable him to work in union with his fellow men. Most people are interested in the lives of the great men of history. These people should read such biographies 4s Maurios’ “Disraeli’’ and WW. R. Thayer’s “Theodore Roosevelt.”’ By reading accounts of such lives as those of the English statesman and our ex-president, one realizes how insignificant he really is and at the same time profits by their mistakes and lessons in his own life and work. “Strife,” written by John Gelsworthy, is one of the comparatively few dramas which present industrial problems: One can see from this play that the struggle between capital and labor has changed only a little since 1909. The drama deals with the working men and their families, showing their constant battle for existence. For the person who likes to read poetry, the narrative poem, ‘John Brown's Body,” by Stephen Vincent Benet, is very pleasing. It is a lasting memorial of the Civil War Days, as it comes back out of history for the judgment of the generation that lived through the World War. It is written in various types of verse to fit the ideas to bz exnressed. For example, in the midsi of batt!e this passage is used: “The casual guns do not look for you, Judith Henry; they find you in passing merely, and touch you only a little, but the touch is enough to give your helpless body five sudden woundrs and leave you helplessly dying. This is just one picture found in the book. After reading the poem one can easily see the marked changes in the conditions of the workers since the time of slavery. The complex and mechanized world of industry is different from the quiet country of a helf century ago. Because Carl Sandburg writes such verses as “Chicago Poems’ and ‘Smoke and Steel’’ on phases of industrialism, men like to read his works in order to discover circumstances similar to those in which they live. Readers of these poems come to realize that the whole world is one huge machine of which they are a small part. A quotation from “Smoke and Steel’”’ shows how this might apply. ce in the blood of men and the link of chimneys -Tthe smoke nights write their oaths; Smoke into stee! and blood into steel; Homestead, Braddock, Birmingham, they make their steel with men. Smoke and blood is the mix of steel.”’ “The birdmen drone In the blue; it is steel, A motor sings end zooms.’ To sum up the values of books, let us say that literature can become an outlet for the ideas of a man who has not been able to express himseif; it can keep before him a vision of an ideal which is worth striving toward; it can give him a better knowledge of cs nature at home and abroad; it can restore the past as it is crystallized by those who gave character to vanished centuries, and it can show him the glory of the common place and teach him to appreciate it. Con- sequently, literature has a permanent elfect on the industry of the country by promoting a harmonious feeling among the industrialists of the world. : ) — Janet Roukes, ‘31. CHEMISTRY AND MODERN INDUSTRY The position of a chemist in modern industry is that of an economist. His task is not only to supervise the chemical processes which take place in nearly every industry, but also to improve the manufacturing methods and to convert the waste products of industry into useful and valuable materials. Thus, the majority of our present day luxuries are duz to the by-products of industry which have been utilized by the chemist. Some examples of these luxurizs with which we deal every day are: glycerine, dyes, kerosene, paints, and rayon. Chemistry enters our daily life in other ways, too, for it is to be thanked for such necessities as illuminating gas, gasoline, matches, medicine, and anaesthetics. Above all, the chemist is indispensible in the present day for the development of our national resources, which are now strained to the utmost. In summary, the chemist is the vitalizing, constructive, and protective agent in the life of the nation. Chemistry, the science with which the chemist deals, has been defined as that “science which fashions from the materials found in nature, other substances which are better suited to the present needs of man.’ Attempts to find these better substances mentioned in the pervious definitions are taking place daily in the laboratories of srzat industries. When such substances are found in harmony with the desires of man, industrial processes and equipment are forthcoming to take advantage of them. (43 } TE sav aoa saa CLASS ESSAYS (Continued) ‘n one industry — namely, the coal indsutry — such better substances and equipment have been advanced, so that et present one hundred and seventy-five products are derived from the distillation of coal in comparison with the three or four formerly derived. But in contrast to this vast improvement is the fact that only one-fourth of every ton of coal burned as fuel in the United States 1s actually utilized. This means, of course, that the other three-fourths of a ton goes to waste. The chemist, however, has practically found a solution for this problem, and in the near future, probably all the coal that we buy as fuel will have been treated for its by-products. Concerning the previous facts a great German chemist has expressed the belief that the future belongs tc the nation that best utilizes her coal resources. In close relation with the coal industry, in fact the complement of it, is the steel industry, which, with the former, is the foundation of modern civilization. Without these two chemically dependent industries we should exist in practical- ly the state of savates. Because the chemist has conquered the high temperatures involved in the steel industry, and has found the art of preserving the finished product, we of today may enjoy the countless benefits of this metal; such as the automobile, train, and ocean liner. As the coal and steel industries are the foundations of civilization, so are the alcohol and sulphuric acid industries foundations of nearly all other industries. So important is sulphuric acid in the industry of the nation that the nation s industrial wealth may be measured by the amount of it produced and consumed. Alcohol is nearly as important, for the very life of the nation would be impossible without it. Alcohol, purely a chemical product, owes its important place in industry to its great solvent powers, whicn make chemical reactions occur more easily. A proof of this is seen in the fact that alcohol is used as a solvent for the manu- facture of over one hundred and fifty industrial products. !ts usefulness in the near future will probably depend largely on its use as a substitute for gasoline, because government geologists predict the end of the petroleum era in about twenty years. Two other important industries in. which chemicals and chemistry are absolutely necessary, are the fertilizer and textile industries. No other industries involve such a knowledge of chemistry or such an amount of chemicals as do these. In the present day fertilizer industry, which by the way, is one of the good results of the World War, the necessary component of fertilizer — namely, nitrogen — is obtained from the air by chemical means. This nitrogen was formerly obtained from the huge nitrate beds of Chile, which, of course, could not supply the world with nitrogen forever, and which also were closed to some countries in war time. The fertilizer industry is at present the heaviest chemical industry in the United States, and its products are vita! to the food supply of the nation. Speaking of food , | may mention here that much of our present day food is accessible to us only because of chemical preservation. Present dey clothing, made from the products of the textile industry, is also due to the development of chemistry and its diversified applications. From the raw materials, which are bleached by a chemical process, to the finished product, which is dyed by a dye produced from the by-products of distilled coal, chemistry enters this industry on a large scale. In this industry the chemist has made possible the manufacture of artificial silk, commercially known as rayon, from waste products of the lumber industry. Another great industry, in fact the seventh largest in the country, the paper and pulp industry, is largely due to the fact that chemistry first introduced wood as a raw material for the pulp. From the raw material to the finished product, the paper goes through 4 chemical process. Through this process chemists have brought about a better quality and a greater production of paper, which is such a commodity and necessity in the present day. Another commodity of today is rubber, which resulted from a chemical investigation by Charles Goodyear. Much remains yet to be done by the chemist, however, before this industry will advance on the practical scale and give the public better products. Chemists are now hard at work to solve this problem, and among them is Thomas Edison, who hopes to produce rubber from a species of cactus, grown on our Western desert. Pe Among other industries in which chemistry plays a leadingz role are the cotton industry, in which the chemist has succeeded in developing from the cottonseed, formerly e waste product, sixteen principal commercial products and hundreds of minor ones; the glass industry, which is wnolly controlled oy chemists; the leather industry, which from the tanning of the raw material to the finished product is purely a chemical process; the resin industry, the petroleum in- dustry, and the celluloid industry, which is Leominster’s greatest industry. These examples of chemistry in industry tend to show that this science has done its part in industrial development; but every industry is still open to chemical improvements. On this point a great American chemist has said, A!I our troubles will not be over until a few ounces of some substance will succeed in driving an engine or in making nitro- geneous fertilizer. (44) Se ate ON = CLASS ESSAYS (Continued) Only an understanding and intelligent public, however, appreciate this statement and have regard for the chemist, wno works not only for personal gain, but also to improve products, adolish waste, establish new iadustrizs, and in general to promote the nation’s welfare in industry. -- Francis Erickson, 31. ART AND BUSINESS “In the elder days of Art, Builders wrought with greatest care Each minute and: unseen part, For the gods see everywhere.” As far back as records extend, every known civilization has developed a form of art characteristic of its people and. influenced by its geographical situation. The most progressive and the most highly cultured civilization was the one in which art played a predominant part. Its traditions, its power, its glory were all inseparably linked with that abstract quality called “Art.” In our modern civilization this truth is no less applicable. As a nation we are evincing a growing aestheticism, and, as inevitably results, we are progressing at a repid pace. Everywhere people demand art; they require it to beautify their very existence and to eliminate some of the drab sordiness of their routine. Consequently, we suddenly perceive an artistic transformation in all forms of industry, particularly that of building. Ruskin declares that “We require from buildings, as from men, two kinds of goodness; first, the doing of their practical duty, and then that they be graceful and pleasing in doing it, waich last is itself another form of duty.” Architects, in an effort to reconcile business requirements to art by the conservation of valuable space, have effected an entirely modern development in the realm of business architecture. | refer, primarily, to the American skyscrapers, those tall, gaunt frames, massive in their simplicity, stretching far above us into infinity. They reoresent the radical de- parture from the traditional conformations of the past and the basis for future architectural expansion. — oF One must not conclude, however, that office buildings are the only types of editices in which such an interest is being displayed. The following incident is a typical illustration of what Americans are doing today in the realm of industrial art. The Chicago Bridge and Iron Works recently sponsored an inter-national competition to encourage a general aesthetic improvement in elevated water tanks. An unusual design, featuring the new modernistic trend in art, was submitted by Eugene Voita of Chicago, who was judged the winner over one hundred and fifty-two candidates. In Europe, similar developments in industry are being realized. In Italy on the shore of Lake Garda stands a huge hydro-electric plant which taps Lake Ledro. Wealthy European monarchs might be iustly proud to possess as beautiful a summer residence. =e While builders have been eagerly endeavoring to construct more artistic exteriors, interior decorators have ad- vanced designs for rendering the business office a much more enjoyable place in which to work. Compare the modern office with that of yesterday. What a miracle of change has resulted! The dirty, dust-begrimed, smoky otice of the past has been replaced by one that is, in the fullest sense of the word, a work of art. Color harmony, one of the basic prin- ciples of modern decoration, is highly accentuated. Naturally, employees and executives in such fine surroundings are afforded ample inducements for the improvement of their work. Yet, with all these propensities toward the beautiful, business art still retains a dignified simplicity, and an indispensable utility. Great importance has been attached to these last two qualities, simplicity and utility, in the construction of modern vehicles, also. In order to prove this statement, let us consider the automobile. Due to a momentous revolution in the automobile industry, our present-day cars have graceful lines — long, slender lines that show the characteristics of an art-loving people. The delightfully attractive color schemes are the direct results of universal desire for color. Again utility is involved with the beautiful. The up-to-date coach is lined with velvet upholstery in color tones which har- monize with the exterior, and skillfully inclosed in glass for protection from disagreeable weather conditions. (45°) Baca ae ivenGay fen CLASS ESSAYS (Continued) As a logical sequence of the increased importance of art in business environment, the methods which manufacturers employ to secure careful attention and popular demand for their products must conform to certain artistic standards. These standards must, of necessity, pass successfully the critical judgment of an artistic nation. Among the best means of effectively displaying this merchandise is the store window, ‘the picture gallery of the public.’ What a multitude of possibilities it represents! Solely through this advertising medium is made possible the actual exhibition of the goods intended for sale. Because of the keen competition so generally prevalent, a show window should possess certain pleasing qualities which other windows lack. Individuality, an inviting eect, simplicity, originality — all contribute largely toward enhancing the attractiveness of the display. However, the store window can reach enly a limited part of the vast throng of purchasers. Newspapers and magazines are, without question, the most extensive agencies used for proclaiming the merits of various wares. Thousands — yes, millions — of subscribers ere daily attracted by original advertisements of prosaic subjects. | have noticed reproductions of rare masterpieces used as the trade-marks of corporations engaged in the manufacture of commonplace necessities. Even if such ea seemingly uninteresting subject as pig-iron is being advertised, the announcement can be made to appear as attractive as that which deals with furniture, clothing, or jewelry. ones Artistic advertisements of carefully wrought articles immediately remind us of the real characteristics of beauty in the objects themselves. For each distinct piece of craftsmanship there are skilled artificers, devoting their time to creating lovelier and more graceful designs for their respective products. The recent Exhibition of Modern Industrial and Deco- rative Art, sponsored at the Brooklyn Museum and given under the auspices of the American Union of Decorative Artists and Craftsmen, proves the present interest of craftsmen in perfecting creative ability. Atthis exhibit artists selected two especially designed patterns of Lucite boudoir-accessories which were made by the Dupont-Viscoloid Company. One of these, designed by Robert Leonard, was the Fleuret pattern in turquoise and blue. The second, a Grecian decoration, was a black contemporary plan. In these designs—as in designs that are larger and much more complex — and in architectural diagrams, the popular interest in beauty is evinced. Throughout the essay, | have endeavored to establish the relation between art and industrialism as it exists today. Commercial transactions between capital and labor have proved the significance of art in business. Universally, the importance of aestheticism in all kinds of work is now realized. Moreover, the art of tomorrow promises to be still more closely linked with our daily work than the art of today, because, as Longfellow very sagely observed, “‘Arrt is Power.” | — Geraldine LaBelle, '31 (46) THE MAGNET-——————_____-. — FOOTBALL SQUAD 1930-1931 POOIBALE The Leominster High School Football Team opened its season on September 20, defeating the Dean 2nds by a score of 6-0. The following Saturday the boys played their first out-of-town game and beat Marlboro High by the same score. Ihe second team to visit Leominster was Worcester South High. In this game the local boys ran up 25 points to their opponent's zero. On Columbus Day the strong Rogers High of Newport, R. |. came here and were defeated by the Leominster Boys by a score of 7-0. Athol was the next visitor to the local field. For most of the first half the home team was kept on the defensive, but superior strength told in the second half, when the Leominster team scored 10 points to win the game. On Oct. 25, Leominster had its second out-of-town contest, and was beaten for the first time this year by Amesbury High. The game was played on a muddy field, a condition which seemed to affect the Leominster boys more than their opponents. The next two games resulted in victories for Leominster: the first was scored over Framingham; the second, over Southbridge. The biggest home game of the season was played on Nov. 15, against Gardner High. The field was very muddy, and a heavy rain fell during most of the game. leominster made the most of its opportunities and scored two touchdowns, which were more than enough to win, as Gardner could not score except on a Safety. The annual Thanksgiving Day game with Fitchburg resulted in a victory for the Red and Gray by a one touchdown margin. Both teams played a good game, and the breaks decided the result. The acting captain plan was used throughout the season with good effect. The boys who had an opportunity to be captain were Lachapelle, Dyer, McCann, Sullivan, Toolin, Lane, and Seaver. (47) ‘ —————— THE MAGNET. BOYS’ BASKETBALL SQUAD 1930-1931 as : BOYS’ BASKET-BALL | ose The Leominster Basketball Team experienced an up and down season this year. The boys started off by loz'ng two close games, one to the Alumni and the other to Worcester South High. Then they went down to Framingham end won their first victory. They followed this up by defeating a strong Marlboro team, but the next start was in the huge Gardner gym, and they were unable to get the lay of the land until the second half was well along. It wes too late in the game to accomplish much, so they were forced to accept their third defeat. Leominster’s next game was in Marlboro, where they jumped off to an early lead and were never in danger of defeat. The next game came against Leominster’s old and powerful rival, Fitchourg. This contest was very close for the first half, but Fitchburg found the range in the second half and won out 28-15. The next two games were both victories for the local boys: the first over Framingham, and the second against Maynard. Both of these games were hard fought, with Leominster proving herself a triHle stronger in the pinches. The next game was a very welcome victory for Leominster because it was scored against Gardner, which had won a decision over the Blue and White earlier in the season. In order to win this game, Leominster was forced to come from behind in the last period. Unfortunately the local boys were not able to continue their string of victories, but the last two games were played against teams which later became state champions. Nashua High of New Hampshire was the first to tase the Leominster boys into camp, by a score of 38-96. In the last game of the season, Leominster went up to Fitchburg and was defeated by a score of 49-96. The season wes not remarkable for the number of victories, but it is significant that es team won six out of nine games against high schools of its own size. The most notable victory was against Gardner High, when Leominster scored twelve points to Gardner's one in the last quarter to pull the game out of the fire. The custom of appointing a captain for each game was again successfully used. The boys who were acting captains during the season were Swanson, O'Toole, Dyer, and Pasquale. - (48 ) , ig q r ‘ : : a aS = -— ae es eee SO le eee.

With but one exception, the members of the team were the same as last year. In the opening game, Leominster met Hudson for the first time. The result was an easy victory for the locals as the 99-19 score indicates. On January 16, Marlboro gave Leominster its defeat, winning the game by one point. The next game was with Leominster’s bitter rival, the Gardner Team, which won by a score of 43-11. On February 18 Leominster again fell victim to the Gardner team, which scored 40 as against 28 for the locals. In the return game with Marlboro, the Leominster girls set out toseek revenge and won by the close score of 24-93. The return game with Hudson was also a victory for Leominster by a score of 28-95. Leominster visited Maynard for the first time on February 20. This team proved to be altogether too strong, the game ending with a 65-13 score in Maynard's favor. C. Coughlin was the highest scorer with a total of 24 points. Leominster met Hudson in the last outside game of the season. (49) iotere beac! iNiaa| GIRLS HOCKEY 1930-1931 FIELD HOCKEY Early in the fall, the interclass field hockey games were played under the supervision of Miss Rueger. The Seniors and Juniors were first to stage a contest, which Seniors won. After a game with the Juniors, the Sophomores played the — Seniors, who were the champions last year. Two contests were needed to determine the victor, and the Sophomores made the better score. The following girls are now wearing their numerals and will be back next year to aid in forming 4 varsity team: Marjorie Harris, Capt.; A. Pinard, A. Houde, A. Gagnon, E. O'Brien, H. Ringer, E.

( 50} [Pehe-s NaWedGid Nerd | BASEBALL SQUAD 1930-1931 BASEBALL The Leominster High School Baseball Team opened its 1931 season on Patriot’s Day by defeating St. Bernards® High of Fitchburg on the local field by a score of 3-1. The Blue and White also won its next two games, the first against a strong Maynard team 4-2, and the second from Framingham 11-5. In its next game, Leominster went down to defeat at the hands of Clinton High 4-2. This was the first setback of the season for the Blue and White. Leominster split the next two games, winning a close one from Framingham 4-1, and losing a free hitting gane to Athol 13-5. The game with Framingham was stopped at the end of the fifth inning on account of rain. On May 25, Leominster went up to Crocker Field, Fitchburg, for the first objective game of the season. The game developed into a pitching duel with Fitchburg finally winning out 2-1. As this accoun t goes to press, several games, including two with Gardner and one with Fitchburg, still remain to be played. goby $$ —— THE MAGNE T————— GIRLS’ TRACK TEAM GIRLS TRACK TEAM After many afternoons of practice for the field and track events, the Leominster girls met their first opponents on May 13, when a strong team came from Gardner. Leominster’s team consisted mostly of Sophomores, who put up a great fight, but the Gardner girls proved that they werz- superior by a score of AON to 2044. Gardner took every first place except in the relay. Miss Kaino Kauppinen was the star and scored 20 of the 4916 points. The Leominster girls are now looking forward to the return meet at Gardner sometime before the close of school. A meet with Templeton seems to be quite certain, also, and Leominster is hoping to win in one of them. With practically all the girls back for the next two years, the prospects for the future are very bright. A. Gillooley has been manager this year of the team, which has consisted of the following members: D. Pierce, Capt.; M. Harris, M. Sherman, |. Menard, E. Scapone, a Weymouth, |. McGillen, L.
