The attic of a member of the faculty recently yielded an invitation to the class day and commencement exercises of this year, which invites comparison with the present. In the first place it was an invitation, not an announcement, which the class issued, each recipient responding not only with his presence at the exercise but also with a gift to the young man or young ulady who invited him. These gifts were presented publicly, at the commencement exercises in the old Town Hall. As the hall rang with applause after the readingof each essay-and every member of the class stood and de- livered in those old daysea corps of ushers placed the gifts on the stage, with all the solemnity of a statesman placing a wreath on the tomb of Napoleon. Saratogians who remember the occasion declare that these gifts were not all floral offerings, though bouquets and sprays and even horseshoes bearing good-luck messages filled the stage. Boxes contain- ing bracelets for the girls and cuff links for the boys; other boxes holding gauze and feathered fans for the girls, writing sets for the boys; parcels holding parasols for the Hyoung ladiesfy umbrellas for the ttyoung gentle- men;H and books-whole sets of Dickens, Eliot, and Scott; soft leather bound copies of Longfellow or Tennyson or Browning for both girls and boys. Indeed it was the wealth of spoils en;iching the class of ,88 which led the Board of Education to outlaw the public presentation of gifts and, in later years, to encourage the use of the announcement. The diplomas which the class received were large parchment rolls tied with long ribbons in the class colors, terra cotta and blue. The old invitation was an ornate affair. That of the class of t88 consisted of two cards, bound together with a silken cord. It bore the picture of an owl, the class symbol, which was also painted in oils on the class colors, and the Latin phrase Concilio et animo vincimusf the class motto. The graduates numbered fifteen, of whom only four were boys: Joseph P. Bremen, president; John J. Healy, George H. Beers, and Thomas H. Gorman. THE HIGH SCHOOL RECORDIL'R Of interest to one member of the class of 193 8, the valedictorian, is the fact that his grandfather delivered the class day oration in 1888. High honors, however, went to two ttyoung ladies7L-Susie G. Osborne, valedictorian, and Lillian M. Jenkins, salutatorian. Time marches on! Today the keynote 0f the commencement ex- ercises is sim'plicityeno flowers, no long gloves, no expensive gowns for the girls, no formal dress for the boys. The class of 1938 will number approximately 160 members, whose friends will enter Convention Hall on June 29 for exercises much shorter than those of ,88. Nevertheless, parents will be emotionally stirred 2:5 in the old days and S. H. S. will continue to make history. CLASS HISTORY By Philip J. Landry, Jr. In September, 1934, three hundred and twenty-tive students, eager for knowledge, entered the portals of S. H. S. Now, in June, 1938, :1 considerable number of these students, with their zeal for learning some- what modified by lesser interests, are pleparing to leave their alnm mater with pleasant memories of four never-to-be--f0rg0tten years. When we first entered the high school, we were somewhat be- wildered by the vastness of the place in comparison with our grammar schools. Being merely irresponsible freshmen, we were'not allowed the privilege of organizing, but we entrusted the duty of reporting our Class activities, such as they were, to Loretta Roohztn and Phil Landry. in spite of the fact that they were ttfixstwear ineth several of the class showed great promise in athletics and dramatics. In our sophomore year we began to emerge from our shell. Or- ganizing for the first time, we chose Phil Landry president, with Joanne Moody vice-president, and Ralph Millis secretary-treasurer. Mary Vaughan and Newton Cline were selected for the positions of ttRecordertt reporters, and Antoinette Scotto represented us on the Student Council, being secretary of the organization. Again class members were promi- nent in dramatics and athletics, helping the older participants uphold the honor of S. H. S. e Having attained, after two years tand, in some cases, more'i of ef- fort t Pi, the status of upper classmen, we organized for the second time, placing Phil Landry at the head of the class, with Dennis Kniery vice- presiclent, and Fred Eaton secretary-treasurer. We elected Gail Carlson and Bernard O,Neill members of the Student Council, OiNeill becoming vice-president of the group. Cassy Hofsess and Sherry Wait took over THE HIGH SCHOOL RECORDER 7 the work of reporting our activities in the ttRecorderF During our junior year, we challenged attention with our athletes, actors and actresses printing their names indelibly upon the annals of S. H. S. Socially, the class united with the Seniors for the annual Christmas Tea Dance, a very successful affair. In the spring we became an overnight sensation when, after months of hard work under the guidance of Mr. Van Wie, we staged our Junior Prom, with music by Bernie Collins and his orchestra. The decorations, a grape arbor with trellises and great bunches of purple fruit, were generally acclaimed the most beautiful ever seen in the high school. Hlving thus finished our junior year in a blaze of glory, we entered S. H. S. in September for our final year. Seniors at last, we looked forward to a year replete with enjoyment and hard work. We selected Frank 1220 to head the class, with ttMert Dalaba viee-president, and Doris Ann Wait secretary-treasurer. Joanne Moody and Jim Roohan reported our activities in the ttRecorder, while Bernard OtNeill, as president of the Student Council, represented us in that organization, as- sited by Elinore Holland and Jane Hyde. The important task of editing the ttRecorder was entrusted to Louise Jo'hnsen, editor-in-chief; Fred Eaton, assistant editor; with Phil Landry as business manager. After the annual Christmas Tea Dance had been cleared up, preparations for the Spring Dance went apace. Instead of the customary two dances,- the Seniors and Juniors decided to cooperate on one mammoth affair. Another innovation was introduced by the radical element, 'when the HmusicH Oi of Jackie Jackson and his Cotton-pickers was obtained for the dance. Never in the memory of its oldest inhabitants had the gymnasium housed such a gathering and the school itself seemed to rock on that night. Mr, Stanley Hicks was senior adviser for this occasion. On the more serious side, several members of the class were again prominent in dramatics, the highlight of the year being the Senior Play, ttCaptain Applejack, ably presented tinder the direction of Miss Smith. The last chapter of the history of 1938 will be written on the even- ing of June 29, when the commencement exercises will be held in Con- vention Hall. Speakers representingy the class will be Philip Landry, vnledictorinn, and Elinore Holland, salutaltorian. 8 THE HIGH SCHOOL RECDRDER mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm CLASS POEM Upon a grassy meadow among the swaying flowers Rests a magic rug made to while away Lifets hours. Upon its glowing splendor is traced the tree of life, With wondrous tales symbolic of happiness or strife. Nestled in its downy midst, wafted by the breeze ; We rise in magic flight, high over land and seas, Through blue and gold of day, sun-dappled in the light, Silver-mottled by the flickering stars of night. Enchanted by its spell, all gaze upon the tree Which takes on true significance as Lifets golden key. Some bold, pierce its meaning and down the carpet flies To leave them with strange lands before their wondering eyes. Pausing, they note ahead 21 green and flower-grown place; Unknowing, ,tis but a vision in a desert space. Scra'ping trackless sands, away through the blue we fly, As they run with grasping hands heedless of good-bye. On we sail through clouds of fire over the sunlit dome Passing purple hills and pale waves white with foam, Some seek the rippling waters alive with white-sailed boats; Answering them, upon the sea, our carpet floats. They clamber in the drifting barks 0f shell-like form, They do not know the sudden rage of sweeping storm. Alone upon the rushing tide they rise and fall, As we glide aloft they answer not our call. Up and down we soar yet entranced by tree and sights Until a towering mountain an adventurous soul delights. The carpet sets him down upon a mighty crevassed mass, Unaware the top is small, the sides made of glass. On through the azure winging its magic way, The carpet bears us up in the mist 0r solar ray. Below we note each leaf, each flower, each turning vine, Yet we float toward the great, the ever beckoning shrine. Our magic carpet, its mystery yet unspun, Tassles waving, colors blazing, rises towards the sun. Louise Johnsen THE HIGH SCHOOL RECORDER mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm FRANK P. IZZOe 1220 ssResolved to rule.

Early in the morning President Phil Landry announced his Cabinet appointments, These are: Secretary of State, Robert Ritchie;SeC1etary of the Treasury, John Dominy; Secretary of War, Ralph Craw;Atth11ey General, ArthUr Armer; Postmaster General, Seymour Potter; Secretary of the interior, Claude Baker; Secretary of Commerce, Rodger'Rose; Secretary of Labor, Peter Zajaceskowski; and Secretary of Public Amuse- ment, Art Whitford. After breakfast a conference was held with Admiral Sherman of the Coast Guard, Admi1al Hall of the Navy, Commander Breen 0f the Air Force, and engineers Bernard OlNeill, Solomon Penner, and Ed Kelch 0f the Chemical and Technical Research Department on new border and coast defenses in cases of sudden attack by Boss lzzo, dicta- tor of Mexico. lzzots envoy, John Lattanzio, could be heard through the soundproof doors attempting to convince our first woman vice-presi- dent, Elinore Holland, that all disagreements should be settled by a flip of a coin, as advocated by his leader. The President also conferred with Senator Dale Bidwell, majority leader; Senator Herbert Phelps, former mayor of Wilton; and Senator Ed. Barss, formerly of the W. P. A. At noon, while the President was ttin conferenceti with another group of ,38 lers including John Walbridge, notorious gambler, Joe Hays, betting commissioner, and Guy Hawthorne, leader of the policy racket, Miss Joanne Moody, the President 5 private secretary, was hostess tbelieve it or notl at a luncheon for the ladies and gentlemen of the press and members of our diplomatic corps. In the number pres- ent we recognized Hank Stieglitz, our biggest rival; Mary Voskanyan, local sob sister; Louise Johnsen, columnist for the New York Times- Tribune; Betty Connolly, ambassador to France; and Herman Birnbaum, ambassador to Germany. 42 ' THE HIGH SCHOOL RECORDER -M Later, our partner, Miss Scotto, visited a beauty shop, where beautician Emily Hills and assistants Gladys Fowler, Susan Pekurney, Elizabeth DelVecchio and Elizabeth Jankovich deserted their customers tincluding Hollywood actor, Bob Ellsworth, who was having 'his hair wavedl to greet her. After lunch, when the President had finished dictating to secretaries Marie Hughes, Minnie Clark, and the Tlheophiles sisters, Angeline and Catherine, his portrait was painted by artist Jane Staples, while her sister Pat interviewed him for his biography. President Landry was then given his daily examination by Doctors Jim Roohan and Sherry Wait, who, finding nothing wrong, hurried out for their tennis match with Jeannette Wilson, buyer for Macyts, and Betty Gallup, famed aviatrix. A few blocks away an accident had occurred when a car full of merry-makers, including Marie Fitzgerald and a Davis cup star whose name we were unable to get, hogged the roada-in spite of their old lessons in safety-and forced' into the ditch a truck owned by Swift and Co. and operated by Eric Walker. Barely escaping the fate of the truck was a bus filled with Congressional secretaries and stenographers, among whom were Julia Brackett, Thelma Sweet, Adelaide San Felice, Janet Marvin, Mary Russell, and Anna Heekin. All fainted when they recog- nized the driver of the truck. At the emergency hospital interne Ed Kashuba, assisted by nurses Neva Jones, Jane Hyde, Ann Murphy, Elaine Carroll, Eleanor Kimball, and Helen Maxfield, administered first aid, 'using a new antiseptic and reviver developed by Gail Carlson and Fern Wolcott in their research laboratory. Jane Marks anxiously rushed in looking for Walker and was told he was all right. In the hospital kitchen, which we visited, being naturally interested in food, we found dieticians Marie Coppernoll, Catherine Reynolds, Marjorie Barton, and Edith Arnold busy preparing food for the patients while Carlton Hurd washed dishes. At three-thirty we left the hospital for the airport to greet incoming y38 'ers, many of them celebrities. W'hen Ronald Platt, our driver, had to stop for a red light on the way, Miss Scotto rushed into a dress shop operated by Frances Mangona to ttget something to wear at the banquet tonight. When I next saw her at six otclock, she was just leaving the shop with packages containing creations by Gerry Judge and Olga Lend- way. She said she had met the famous model, Eileen Mullady, who was also buying clothes, and had learned that Loretta Roohan and Georgette Waring were suing Doug Van' Benschoten, 'tRed Emights manager, for THE HIGH SCHOOL RECORDER 43 WE payments for ttRedtst, false teeth, his real teeth having been knocked out in his last fight. In the meantime, we arrived at the airport to be informed by radio operator William Kremp that the New York plane would be late. One came from 'the West, however, piloted by John Fedush and carrying Betty Stebbins, columnist for a chain of newspapers, now on her way to New York with material for the latest styles in Hollywood. Wandering around the airport, we came upon mechanics Jack Baugh and Charles Rose, who were helping electrician Dave Purcell get Foster Ebertis car started. Foster told us that from the bank in which he worked Jarvis Row- land and Elmer Wolfe had absconded with half a million dollars of new currency designed by George Conradson and engraved by Homer Root. Hen'ry Priester of the Secret Service was hot on their trail. Two planes were arriving and we went to meet them. The trans- ports had been designed by George Gottsche and were piloted by Edsal McKnight and Herbert Westcott. Betty White was stewardess in one, while the other had two hostesses, Ruth Wise and Vivian Gioberson. From the first plane stepped Doris Ann Wait and Frank Gingra, stars of the new hit HGone With the Wind ; Alex Morrison, bandleader; Evelyn Allen, well known radio songstress; Ralph Millis, Hollywood comedian; and Betty Qua, tap dancing sensation on Broadway. The other held Inspector Curtis Crosier of the New York State Police; Royal Harder, former Olympic star, now an architect; and Breezie Lambert and John Williams, stars of the New York Yankees. ttBreezie, who coaches at Saratoga High during the winter, told us that Marian Howland was now principal, Mary Arpey was a com- mercial teacher, and Virginia Wolcott was teaching music. Virginia had given him a letter to deliver to Betty Bassett and Marg Henning, who ran a musi: school here in Washington. After seeing the passengers tontheir hotels, we dropped in at the Library of Congress. Here Minnie Longo, librarian, was helping An-l thony Alonzo find books on zoology. On the way out we met Bob Winney, government accountant, who was looking for Ruth Burt, his assistant. At five otclock we met the new Diesel train, piloted by Bob Richter, and interviewed Mlle. Carryl S'turdevan of the Metropolitan Opera. We then escorted Mlle. Sturdevan, her secretary, Anna Kashuba, and her special nurse, Irene Lasher, to the hotel. 44 THE HIGH SCHOOL EECORDER mm The ,38 banquet waslto be held at the new Saratoga Club, owned by a group of former class members. As the Presidents private secre- tary and I drove up we noticed the landscaping planned by Cliff Dunbar and carried out by Leroy Schulenbu't'g and Donald Darrah, plant experts. Inside we were 5greeted by Miss Scotto, who had learned that the appointments of the club had been purchased by Mary Louise Gilbert and arranged by interior decorator, tMary Vaughan. Upon inquiring, we learned that the spectacular lighting effects had been achieved by Bob Walton, master electrician. As we took our places at the right of the Presidents seat, he him- self entered with Mary Louise Pierce, Washingtonts most beautiful beauty. Glancing around, we noticed eveh Boss 1220 was there with a flag of truce. Others we had not seen before were Dot Wilsey, manager of a chain store system, Llewelyn Beagle, manager of Western Union, and Paul Fischer, interpreter for the Russian ambassador. As we settled down to the first course, we noticed a commotion at the door and Dake broke in,' followed by Alma Foote, psychoanalyst, and nurses Helen Barrett and Eva Trimmer. Tripping over a table at which governors Anna West and Viola Stanford sat, Dake slid to a stop before the President.

The International Relations Club meetings leave us with happy memories. Our notable achievement this year was the clubs five mem- berships t0 the Foreign Policy Association-an organization whose pur- pose it is to acquaint the youth of America with the social, economic, and political problems which exist through the world, and give them a better understanding of world affairs. Each week during the year fine sets of booklets discussing foreign and domestic news have been sent to our club and this has formed the basis for our discussions. We hope that the class of 1939 may show their interest in the ln- ternational Relations Club and will find it as profitable as we did. Elinore Holland, Sec. FRENCH CLUB A very interesting and helpful program has been carried on this year by the French Club, the aims of which are to learn how to converse in French and to understand the ways and customs of the French people. At French meetings we have had discussions in French, sung French songs and studied French music and composers. From 'time to time plays have been presented. In trying to work out one of the aims of the French Club, to learn to speak French, a system of putting a penny in the bank for every slip of the tongue made, has been adopted. With this money, something worth while will be purchased for the club. A most successuful and enjoyable meeting, the French picnic, concluded the program for the year.

Dramatic performances given during the year included two radio plays, The Ravens First Flightt, and ttA Washingtonts Day Program. Other plays were ttAt the Movies? ttThe Blue Teapotft and a pantomime entitled Auto Betsy. Impromptu speeches and declamations were also presented at several of our meetings. On three different occasions we were fortunate in having with us members of 'the faculty. These include Mr. Swick, w'ho recalled his past high school and college experience and placed particular stress on the need for speech work; Mr. MacGregor, whose subject was HStage Lighting and Sound Effects;H and Mrs, Mary Richardson, who spoke on uThe Art of Stage Make-up. In the way of lighter entertainment came the Halloween party, the Christmas party, and finally the grand climax, the picnic. Again we went to the Dejnoska farm, where not even the glamour of the lunch basket could top the cordial hoSpitality of the Dejnoska family. To , them we extend our sincere appreciation for making this event one of the most outstanding of the year. Our more active contributing members have been busily engaged in Forensic League Contests. These members included Doris Ann Wait, Patricia Crawford, Louise Johnsen, Philip Landry, Newman Wait, Ber- nard Serotta, and Donald Carey. We are proud that one of our members, Doris Ann Wait, 'has decided to carry on with her speech work, having been awarded a scholarship to Emerson College at Boston, Massachusetts. Miss Wait represented us this year in the Skidvmore contest. Members of the Speech Club represented in the Senior play were as follows: LeadseFrank Gingra, Doris Ann Wait, and Joanne Moody; other club members-A1ma Foote, Philip Landry, Evelyn Allen, Robert Dake, Fred Eaton, and Bernard OtNeill.

With a little more luck, and at times a bit more headwork, the Galemen might have won all their games. The season opened with the Streaks beating a weak Cohoes team 6-0. Coach Gale lost a fine tackle and an inspirational leader in the second period, when Mert Dalaba dislocated his elbow. The second week found the boys in a scoreless tie, with Ted Weiglels Mechanicville lads. The following Saturday the Blue and White conquered a small Salem team by 13-0. Saraitoga dropped its first one, on October 30, t0 the Sir Bills from Johnstown. A fine second-half showing, however, marked the Streaks as a fighting team. The Blue and White dropped number two on November 6, against Duke Millerts brilliant Gloversville squad. It will be some time before the team forgets fullback Bob Williams, who made both of the Glove Ci'ty scores. The Galemen closed the ,37 season by defeating our traditional rival Glens Falls, 12-7, in a really colorful battle.

THE HIGH SCHOOL RECORDER 8am? :mm uuxmmm THE HIGH SCHOOL RECORDER WW BASEBALL Sara'toga Highs baseball team opened its season on May 24 against a crack team from Glens Falls High. With Satch Cummings in the box, pitching'a beautiful game and allowing but two hits, Saratoga should have won handily, but slow fielding and weak hitting, particularly in the pinches, bogged the Streakst attack considerably, as they were nosed out 2-1. The second game of the season was played here against Glovers- ville on May 26, with Satch Cummings again playing the major role. The big lad, this time, allowed but one hit and set down twelve batters by the strike-out route, winning his game 1-0. The Streaks scored their lone run in the sixth frame when Pat McDonnell doubled to score Newt Cline. May 28 found the Streaks playing Johnstown as a part of the Varsity Club Field Day. Lefty George Hodgson was on the mound for the Blue and White, but had tough luck, losing a 5-1 decision. Zilko, Johnstown outfielder, was the hitting star of the game, smashing out a homer in the first inning with two men on. Coach OtBrients cohorts copped their second victory on May 31, beating Lansingburgh 1-0. Again the Saratoga hero was a pitcher, as young Oscar Winslow, a freshman, limited his opponents to two hits and walked none. Saratoga scored its run in the second inning when Cummings tripled and scored on a tieldersa choice. The team bowed to Gloversville on June 3 by a 5-1 score. Cum- mings was on the mound for the locals but had poor support.

Brophy and Harder led the way for the Streaks with 10 points each, while the team as a whole totaled 23V2 points. The second meet was a triangular affair held at the ttRectt May 18, with Gl-oversvilie and Johnstown. The Blue and White trailed help- lessly as far as points go, but Coach Gale was encouraged by the show- ing of many of his new men. Two dual meets followed, with Mechanicville on May 20 and Johnstown on May 25. Saratoga copped the first rather handily with a 55 2-3e39 1-3 score, but lost to the Sir Bill team by 70 2-3--33 1-3 The big meet of the year was, of course, the Varsity Club meet, with Saratoga in the third spot. Harder led the way with 10 points. Brop'hy, Hanehan, Bishop, and Hoyt also scored. Lansingburgh journeyed here on the following Monday and went home with a 63V2-31yg defeat. Coach Galets men gave a fine per- formance, winning quite handily. 1n the hnal meet, 'the Sectionals on June 4, Saratoga, which con- tested in Class B, placed third with 28 points, behind Scotia and Johns- town, with 41 and 39 respectively. In Class A Nott Terrace nosed out Mont Pleasant by one point. This year climaxes 'the brilliant careers of several of Saratogats athletes; Royal Harder, flashy negro sprint star, who has averaged over a hundred points for the last three years; Tom Brophy, pole-vaulter de- luxe; and many others who have ably contributed to the success of the team. 73 THE HIGH SCHOOL RECORDER 5.89 M059 74 THE HIGH SCHOOL RECORDER WWWWMW TENNIS Tlhe Saratoga 1938 tennis team has completed another banner year, having kept up the record of the last five years, in which the boys .have Won 53 out of 56 meets. The only defeat this year has been at the hands of Glens Falls. The team started the season by playing an unofficial match with the alumni, who gave the regulars some good opposition. The schedule was officially opened with a home match on May 4, when Saratoga defeated Ballston Spa, 7-4. On May 6, again on the local courts, Saratoga met Johnstown and won, 6-2, The first road match was played in Glens Falls, where Saraltoga High met its third tennis defeat in five years.

Such a large number of students are participating-fifty-seven, to be exactethat nve teams were made. The manager and assistant manager of baseball are Katrina Thaohlas and Ruth Johnsen respectively; the captains of the teams are Dorothy Longo, Elizabeth Del Vecchio, Antoinette Scotto, Virginia Goodfellow, and Ruth Burt. The last two captains had the winning teams, which tied lfOI' first place. As the schedule is unfinished, however, the actual win- ning team cannot be determined. Other spring sports which the girls are enjoying are archery and tennis under the leadership of Joyce Foote. In respect to tennis, two ladder tournaments are being held: one for the seniors, juniors and sophomores; and another for the freshmen. Shirley Smith, having drawn first place, is remaining there because of the difficulty of any- onets unseating her. Rosemary Hazard, however, is at the top of the freshman ladder. In the beginning of the year a point system was published, whereby students could earn points for an award. Therefore, for the purpose of awarding these prizes, 21 special banquet will be held for all those who have earned 500 points or more. Since all the games are not finished and the final number of points cannot be computed, the names of the recipients of these awards cannot be given. G.
