It shows you that no matter where the Alumni are, they still hold an interest in Arlington High School, your school. You should, therefore, for the good of the Alumni, who made Arlington High what it is today, endeavor to make your representative, the Clarion, a suc- cess. We owe our best efforts to those who blazed the trail for us and gained for Arlington High the name she today possesses. (HO North Kingsley Drive, Los Angeles, Cal. Editor of the A. IT. S. Clarion, Arlington, Mass. Dear Sir : In a recent number of the Arlington Advocate, I noted a revival of the Clarion was contemplated. Allow me to add my congratulations! I should be very glad to support the project by subscribing. Kindly advise me how much a year’s subscription and postage will be and I will send check. I have been particularly interested in following the sports record of the High School and the Girls’ Hockey team is especially worthy of praise for its splendid work in capturing the championship. Good luck to you, Sincerely, Inez W. Zecher, Class of 1918.

THE ARLINGTON HIGH SCHOOL CLARION ICE HOCKEY The call for hockey candidates has been sounded and about thirty candi- dates turned out. Because there was little ice, the squad con Id not begin the practice and they had to keep in shape by chasing the cross country team around Spy Pond. This year instead of having one coach the Arlington boys have men of the Alumni to give them points on the game, and “Joe” Duffey is acting coach. Arlington should have an exceptional team, for there are live veterans back; Scanlon, Buckley, Nazro, Cowans, and Hutchinson. From the Sophs comes “Jerry” O’Neil, who has bright pros- pects in this sport, as he has in cross country. With such an outfit as this, the prospects are promising and should furnish many interesting and flashy games. J. MacFarlane. Alumni Notes Christmas vacation brought many of our graduates back to the school for visits. We were glad to welcome Luis Armstrong, Hamilton Bice, Emma Bourne, Helen Foster, Esther Draper, Emily Hicky, and Katherine W ells, all of 1923, and Dick Rideout and Neal Cargyll, ex-’25. Some of the ex-A. II. S. students who have entered the blissful state of matri- mony are Alma Lear, ex-’23, Irene Viano, and Laura Zeigler, ex-’24. Jack Foster, “Molly” Bott, and Dick Rideout are wearing out their intel- lects at Exeter, attending all dances, etc. Francis Donnelly, Ed Leary, Ed Hammond, and Freddie Danton, all of ’23, are at Coburn Academy ( when they aren’t having a long vacation). We don’t imagine it’s very peaceful there. Our Alumni is supporting Hunting- ton ! Leon Labreque, John Freeman, Harry Sherry, and Bill Miller (who, by the way, has been elected captain of the 1924 football team), Alfred Madden, and Kenneth Howe are studying hard there. Bob Fall, ’22, is working hard up at Dartmouth, Francis Forrest is now somebody at Annapolis. Jimmy Jones, ’22, is making a hit at Bowdoin. Linda Pray, ’23, is at Normal Art. “Chick” Hendricks, ' 23, is training her voice at Leland Powers. Mary Lewis, ’23, is developing her muscles at Sargents. Helen Foster, ' 23, is at Smith. Lundberg, ’23, and Donovan, ’23, just couldn’t leave the dear old A. H. S. The Alumni evidently haven’t lost their love for athletics. Live games were played in the gym, January 4, both boys’ and girls’ teams against the Alumni teams. The Alumni hockey game played New Year’s Day resulted in a 2 to 2 tie. Justin McCarthy, ' IT, ex-captain of the A. II. S. hockey team, sails this month with the American Olympic Hockey Team. Hurrah for Arlington ! Charlie Collins, ' 22, ex-captain of A. If. S. cross country team, was third man on Dartmouth’s championship team.

THE ARLINGTON HIGH SCHOOL CLARION Please pass in all jokes on tissue paper, so that the editor will he able to see through them. It the pupils in Latin III., Period II., didn’t make any resolutions, at least they all “made one concession’’ the day after vacation. Good Advice! Mr. Fowler: What’s (he matter, Buckley?” Buckley: There ' s a lack in my seat. What’ll I do?” Mr. Fowler: “Sit on it.” Geography Teacher: In what region does hay grow?” Ambitious Soph : In the ground.’’ Some Stunt Hardy, translating in French III: “Baron Von Fincken put on the table his wine glass which he had just swal- lowed.” Did you know that Miss Treat has discovered the acoustic properties of chalk? Miss Riley: What were Whittier’s poems mostly written on?” Winn (absently) : “Pap , I guess.” 0, Roger , why didn ' t go u tell us before ? Miss Sliedd : “Lundberg, give me a sentence containing an idiom with avoir.” Lundberg: “J’ai femme.” Just imagine! Muriel Moody attending a wild party. John Gruber spanking “Pinty Moore. Arthur Landers getting FF on his re- port card. Brainy Hughes at a funeral. Miss Bullock letting any one enter the left hand door of Room 14. A dance given in the gym. Curt Forbes with rubber heels. Our football team playing croquet. Mv. Henricus not telling a funny story in his speech. A chorus which isn’t the best one Miss Pierce has ever had.
