6 THE PILGRIM Hogues' STANLEY ADDYMAN This boy knows the bright lights,- For it was through his art That in the play at Christmas time Lights played so great a part. IRIA ALBERTINI Popeye may have his spinach, But Iria knows vitamins, toog In class she told the teacher It's carrots she likes to chew., HOWARD ANDERSON Butterfly fiits to and fro From school upon his bike, And laughs at those he passes by- For they all have to hike. BARBARA ARMSTRONG With such wild abandon She chooses to sneeze That our hair stands on end And we shake at the knees. FREDERICK BARBIERI Man Mountain Fred, our athlete, Right Tackle on the team, Is anchor man for vaulting stunts: Steam rollers can't budge him. .. RUTH BARTLETT Her Joe's a fine musiciang Her Joseph leads a bandg Her Jose h is her idol- P , In short, her Joe's just grand. 4 Gallery THELMA BENTLEY Why don't you go to Pem- broke High? I asked this girl one day, Because the heart docs fonder grow When one is far away? BEATRICE BERNIER She hurries to school At a minute to eight, We wonder just who Keeps her out so late. MARY BODELL Minerva has accorded you Gifts so wondrous fair That on you we place a lien: We would your glories share. BLANCHE BORGHI As a friend and good sport She takes the prize: At whatever she does She's tops in our eyes. ELEANOR BREWER She likes to walk, She's always gay- And when there's talk, She has her say. JOSEPH BREWER We're sure you've made a record, But still we grieve and moan- For in this picture one can't see The height to which you've grown.

. THE PILGRIM 5 Last Will and Testament mE, the illustrious and benevolent Class of 1937, being about to take our much-lamented departure from P. H. S.: deem it wise, expedient, and indi- cative of our profound gratitude, to be- queath the following items to those who have sustained us in our exigencies: T0 MR. SHIPMAN: A football suit and helmet in order that h-e may be properly equipped to challenge Mr. Handy's team on the gridiron. To MRS. RAYMOND: A blotting-paper carp-et for her home room to assist her in carrying out her resolution to keep her floor free from ink spots and other unseemly blotches. To MISS BROWN : Individual booths to be used by Senior history students dur- ing the ordeal of tests. We seek to allay all suspicions-hence our parting gift. To MR. PACKARD: Permission to fill the crack in the swinging door, between Mr. Smiley's room and his, in order to keep the boys' minds on their work dur- ing seoond period study. T0 MR. MONGAN: More bulletin space for his exceptionally fine pictures and posters. In adidlition, we appoint Francis Scheid, the silver-tongued orator, to be official tacker-upper. To MISS CAREY: A Flit gun with which she may exterminate pestiferous Seniors who gambol in the lower cor- ridor dfuring fifth period. To MISS WILBER:A new horse to be employed in her now famous example for the dlative of possession. Her old nag has become sway-backed and spavined from years of faithful service. To MR. SMILEY: Traps for catching runaway snakes. They may save the girls many 'anxious and fearful minutes while passing through the lower cor- ridor. To MISS LANG: A law prohibiting checks unfder a dollar. T0 MISS JACQUES: A special telephone to Miss Carey's room. We should like to do all within our power to further such a beautiful friendship. T0 MRS. GARVIN: More Drews to put the girls' sports news of Plymouth High on the front page. To MISS CooMBs: Perhaps a husky C. C. C. boy might be of some assistance to her' in the office. Her polite sugges- tions to remove the corporeal presence seem, in some cases, to fall on barren ground. T0 MISS HUMPHREY: Murals on the ceiling to justify her gazing upward 1 , while thinking. In this way, much pleas- ure would be instilled into the teaching of such mysterious things as th-e differ- ence b-etween abstract and concrete nouns. To DR. DAVIS: An invitation to a musical program composed of modern hit tunes under the direction of our well-known swing master. To MISS KELLY: A little box to run overhead on wires fsuch as are used in department storesj to carry her mis- sives to Miss McNerney. To MISS DOWLING: A supply of alco- hol-for removing paint from the hands of her art studenfts. In the future, students may be spared the necessity ol' dashing to Mr. PackardI's room. T0 MR. KNOWLTON: A senior class which will appreciate his athletic award system. T0 MISS JOHNSoN: Her choice of a lower desk or a higher chair, so that she may keep an eagle eye on her study hall. T0 MISS LOCKLIN: A few more wood- en compasses for blackboard work in order that the string and chalk method may be abolished. This gift will save pupils many anxious moments. To MISS RAFTER: Roller skates equip- ped with sirens on which she may effi- ci-ently police the cafateria. T0 MR. BAGNALL: A sum of money to finance a private printing of his ver-sion of European history. Some of his the- ories on Nap and the Iron Duke have proved most interesting. T0 MISS J UDD: A standing order with some reliable fruit store for an apple to be delivered to her on each and every school day. T0 MISS MCNERNY: A new set of much-needed cooking utensils so that her talented pupils Cespecially the Sen- ior boysj may really do justice to the culinary art. To THE CLASS OF 1938: More girl athletes. It looks as though Mrs. Garvin will have teams composed only of Soph- omores and Juniors next year. To THE CLASS OF 1939: Several enter- prising members who will always keep the ball rolling in class meeting. Our aim is to eliminate those deadly lulls during which everybody waits for somebody else to do or say the right thing. Drawn, signed, and sealed in the ofiice of Ivan Noffulitch and Haven One- too and to be executed by I. B. Seenya and Otto Burnit. JosEPH BREWER '37 ROBERT D. SAMPSON ,37

THE PILGRIM 7 FIORA CAPPELLA He wields a dustcloth With charm and finesse- A model husband Could do no less. NICHOLAS CARBONE The basketball teams And the plays they use most- Nick can recite them, From coast to coast. ABEL CARVALHO Carvalho is able In more ways than one: We're'so far from subtle You must get the pun. JOSEPH CATON Why must I be tormented? Is his sad wail of Woe: Your plight we do not pity, You love to tease us, Joe. JOHN CAVICCHI He pores day and night Over figures and facts: He thinks Period Five The one time to relax. MADELINE CAVICCHI Who's her favorite maestro? We've followed many clues, But the covers on her text- books At last revealed her views. s LE BARON BRIGGS A boy who signs himself the IIIrd Is under some compulsion To fire -a shot heard round the world- To learning give propulsion. GUITANO BRIGIDA This lad tried not long ago To make well persons ill: Revolting foods in foreign lands He described with fiendish skill. MARY BRIGIDA The senior class upon this lass Bestowed a guerdon rare: To be labelled its Best Citizen With most honors 'will com- pare. RUTH BUMPUS Who owns a slow but winning smile? Whose hair is golden, too? Who likes to paint the live- long day? No one but Ruth, that's who! RUTH BUTTS To be a second Lily Pons Is all you ask from men: When we see your name in lights, We'll say, We knew her when- ALLEN CAPPELLA To milk a cow he'll tell you how, . It's easier than it looks: Which proves again the adage- Q All knowledge's not in books.
