TONTOQUONIAN Published by CLASS OF 1931 % SAUGUS, MASSACHUSETTS Justin Gracey o tfjc Jfflemorp of 3fu£tm (©rate? this edition of the Tontoquonian is dedicated by the Class of 193 1 , in token of the deep and lasting regard in which his memory is held. Supt. Jesse Lambert FOREWORD The Year Book occupies an important position in school life. As a tangible reminder of those most pleasant days of our lives, and a record of the achieve- ments of our class, it should be a valued possession. With the thought of continuing the precedent set by the Class of 1930, the Editorial Staff has striven to present a book that should be a fitting memorial to the years we spent at Saugus High. We have added some material in the third edition of the Tonoquonian, but were unable to accomplish as much as we wished. We hope that succeeding classes may profit by our failings to present more perfect successors to this edition. The Editors. Supt. Jesse Lambert and Principal Vernon Evans v.

Miss Effie Stanhope of the English Department was chosen as the class adviser. In February the class gave their Junior Prom and their tireless efforts were rewarded by a very successful dance. The chairman of the various committees were as follows: deco rations, Jean Anthony; favors, Doris Chisholm; refreshments, Mar- garet Gregson ; orchestra, Mina Pike; advertising, Leslie Parker; tickets, James Muzzy; checkroom, Robert Andrews; policeman and janitor, Roger Amidon; and dance orders, Frances Keough. The president of the class was the general chairman of the affair. The second dance that the class gave was the reception to the Senior Class, other- wise known as the Senior Reception. This dance too was a success, the hall being decorated with flowers and potted plants and the favors were talisman roses. The music was provided by Eddie Welch and his orchestra. The class returned to school in September and elected at their first class meeting the following officers : president, Robert Andrews ; vice-president, Margaret Gregson ; secretary, Laura Snow, and treasurer, Edward Newbury. The annual Senior Dance was given by the class on the seventh of November. The orchestra was the peppiest ever and the decorations some of the most novel and pretty ever seen in the High School. We will never forget those miniature football boys at the windows. Many clubs were formed in the class and during the year the members were kept busy with the various social functions. Among the clubs were; the Debating Club, the Junior Riverside Club, and the Sahico Club. Several socials were run under the direction of various members of the class and the memory of the good times will be always with us, especially, the time when big Eddie Newbury was the bride and Jimmie Muzzy the bothersome, noisy baby brother. We can still see the bridesmaid, Richard Boyle, in his red satin evening gown. The newly formed jazz orchestra, The Symphonians, added much enjoyment to the various social affairs of the year. The season was effectively and appropriately wound up by the annual Senior Reception which was tendered to the graduating class by the Class of 1932. too a , o s y bX)Z « -a 4-T-O - T3 - CJ «j -, S Ph H C cs Pi S3 JUNIOR CLASS OFFICERS 1930 President, Laurence Templeman ; Vice-President, Frances Keough ; Secretary, James Muzzy. 1 93 1 THE TON TO Q UO NIA N i5 ROBERT ANDREWS General Course Debating Club 4; President Class 4 Bob, our class valedictorian.

Roger Bouve ' 3i JUNIOR OFFICERS ' 31 President, Daniel Laskey ; Vice-President, Evelyn Clark Secretary, Charles Brostrom ; Treasurer, John O ' Brien 46 THE TONTO QUONIAN [931 BASKET-BALL This year the girls were given their first taste of athletics as a result of the untiring efforts and interest of the faculty manager, Mr. C. Carroll Cunningham and the coach, Albion Bennie Rice. Interclass basketball teams were organized and the interest and enthusiasm of the girls well rewarded these two staunch supporters for their efforts. The season lasted for two months and during that time eight interclass games were played. The Junior team under the leadership of Stella Borys, the captain, won the championship of the school, winning all of the games that they played in. The captains of the other teams were: Senior, Prudence Pat Kelley; Sophomore, Edith Littlefield; and, Freshman, Olive Johnson. At the end of the season the coach picked the following four all-star teams : first team, forwards, Stella Borys, Prudence Kelley, and Evelyn, guards, Elizabeth Roffey, Eunice Shea and Doris Metzer; second team, forwards, Doris Gillespie, Dorothy Riley, and Dolores O ' Neill, guards, Ruth Hume, Frances Keough, and Florence Russell; third team, forwards, Helen Long, Edith Littlefield, and Marjorie Hamilton, guards, Ercil Dudevoir, Pauline Mason, and Madeline Murphy; fourth team, forwards, Virginia Marsden, Geraldine Sullivan, and Helen Vatcher, guards, Kathryn Barnes, Dorothy Secor, and Helen Chapman. The coach characterizes the members of the Senior team as follows: Prudence Kelley was the most graceful player on the floors, the best shot and the highest scorer. Eunice Shea kept her forward well covered, was cool and never threw the ball away. Dolores O ' Neill was a steady player and always in the right place at the right time. Ruth Hume kept her forward eternally covered and was good at working the ball up the floor. Frances Keough was fast on the court and good at intercepting passes. Florence Russell was fast on the court, a hard worker although a little rough. This is the first year that we have had sports for girls in many, many years and we hope that the sport will be carried on successfully. FOOTBALL This year ' s football season saw the best team since the undefeated one of 1922. Our High School eleven was off to a flying start, defeating Manchester High School 30-0 in their initial combat. From then on the team, under the brilliant leadership of Captain Jim Muzzy, swept from one victory to another and except for a few minor defeats had a helluva good season. The coach characterizes his players as follows: Jimmie Glinski was a tower of strength in the line. Albie Day was outstanding at center and Harry Raddin was a great offensive end. Eddie Newbury carried on gamely against Danvers in spite of a badly injured wrist. Stewart Quint improved steadily with each game and was one of the leading tackles in this section. Foster was a real field general and Gordon Baker was our best interferer. Laurie Templeman was a high scorer, fast, a flashy performer, dangerous every time he carried the ball, and a real thorn to all opponents. Captain Muzzy was a steady consistent player, good interferer, good tackier, an excellent passer, cool, and a scaring threat second only to Templeman. Color and pep was added to the games by the cheer leaders under the direction of Frances Keough and when defeat seemed sure the cheering section rose ably to the occasion, giving new courage to the team. The other cheer leaders were Eunice Shea, Florence Russell, Elwin Shaw and Charles Brostrom. At the annual Football Banquet given the team by the Parent Teacher ' s Associa- tion, the nine Senior members of the football squad were presented with sweaters and the undergraduate members of the squad with letters. A feature of the evening was a duet by Mr. Evans and Quint incorporated and the impersonation of Rudy Vallee by Mr. Cunningham. Captain Jim Muzzy and Coach Rice were the orators of the occasion. 5 h PQ h w 14 co !

Before the current season opened the lettermen elected Laurie Templeman their captain. For the first two games the Saugus nine did not show up so well but they soon rallied and showed the real Saugus war spirit by winning all the rest of the games with the exception of a couple with the most difficult teams in the state. The Senior Class was well represented with five members on the varsity nine. They were Frank Foster, alternate short-stop, Jim Muzzy at third in the infield, and in the outfield John McCullough, alternate in right field; Ralph Losano, center field and Captain Laurie Templeman in left field. This year ' s team was a heavy hitting aggregation and had great fielding ability. The squad was stronger on defense and had the scoring punch that last year ' s nine lacked. The undergraduate classes were not lacking in representatives on the diamond. George Woodman, a Sophomore, played first string on first base and John Nelson another underclassman was on the first string squad as catcher. George was a good fielder with a good throwing arm and he was a timely and consistent hitter. Red Doherty, a freshman, received the shortstop berth on the first team and Eddie Oljey was a heavy favorite on second base. The coach says that the captain was the fastest man on the team and the way in which he stole bases is something to remember. Jim Muzzy carried a great deal of the pitching burden for the season and many and many a time he fanned out a nervous batter. Buwdowicz, another Freshman, exhibited talent in the pitching line this year and should be a safe bet for succeeding teams. Coach Rice also states that this year ' s nine showed more undeveloped talent than any since he has coached here and that he believes that next team should be a winner.

The cast proved to be very well chosen and presented an entertaining and well acted play. The scenery was also very good. This was due to the efforts and work of Roger Bouve. THE BELLE OF BAGDAD The Glee Club under the direction of Miss Ethel M. Edwards put on the most colorful and beautiful operetta, The Relle of Bagdad, that the school has witnessed for years. The cast of the operetta read as follows: Jewel, the Belle of Bagdad, Dorothy Morse; Dick Taylor, a representative of the Super-Supreme Film Company of Holly- wood, Roger Bouve; Hassan EI Carib, Stewart Quint; Mrs. J.
