Foreword june is here again-june, with Graduation, Class Day, Reception, and-the Yearbook, our Yearbook. The Staff has selected the name. The Oracle for the 1933 Year- book. We believe that the word oracle implies wisdom and is sug- gestive of prophetic powers. The selection is the result of much deliber- ation: it is our hope that the name will endure through the years as the symbol of our class. ln fact, we trust that the name will serve always for Wakefield High School Yearbooks. Doubtless it is fitting to explain at this time the difference between the Yearbook and the Debater. The Yearbook is a leather-bound edition composed of photographs of every member of the class. personal paragraphs about each one, various group pictures, club and sport reports, as well as any additional features desired by the compilers. The Debater has a paper cover and consists of numerous literary articles. group pictures. sport write-ups, drawings, and cartoons. lt is essentially a magazine in form and content. A Yearbook is a class publication, edited by a staff composed entirely of seniors. whereas the Debater con- tains material which has been contributed by all four classes in Wakefield High School. Thus, with the Yearbook, there is a feeling of privacy which is lacking in regard to the Debater. These are the principal reasons which cause us to feel that the choice of a Yearbook instead of a Debater has been a wise one. lt has been our earnest endeavor as editors of THE ORACLE to pro- duce a commendable publication which will prove both valuable and satisfying to the members of the Class of l933. Likewise, it is our sincere hope that this undertaking will prove to be a source of inspiration and assistance to future senior classes of Wakefield lligli School. -Lois Potter, Editor-in-Chief. Is the Alumni Association Beneficial? Graduation from high school often means the end of all school life and activities for many students. This should not be so. A graduate can-and should-remain active in school work as a member of the alumni. The school is the means whereby many lasting friendships are formed, and numerous helpful influences are presented. Why should not these friendships be continued and these guiding influences be retained to aid in the problems of later life? The alumni association is certainly a most efficient means of preserving happy memories. School spirit is a subject which is discussed so often that it becomes monotonous, but the alumni actually do promote this very helpful and much-needed quality. lf an undergraduate sees that the graduates show enough interest in their school to become active alumni members, he will naturally show more respect to the school and to school property.
