f HE.- llasaataaarar 192 3 flliiiitiaoinircitie Sophomore Class Two hundred and thirty Sophomores came back to school this year with a hop, skip, and a juimp. The class of 1935 is indeed an industrious and social group. Shortly after their return to Bartlet-t, the Sophomores organized and elected the following officers: Roger Chabot, president, Howard Miller, vice-presidentg Helen Tomasek, treasurer: and Helen Sitko, secretary. An executive committee was also elected who-se memlbers were Nettie Marcus, Harriett Hubbard, Marguerite Plante, Edward Papski, and Valentine Zielinski. The Sophls should be congratulated on their choice of the school ring. The ring was designed by Esta Kokernak ot the class- of '32 and was the object of many fa- vorable comments at the meeting of the Massachusetts Art Teachers' Association. The 'memlbers of the ring committee were Roger Chabot, Howard Miller, Wanda Jezierski, Helen Sitko, and Valentine Zielinlski. Outstanding players on the football team were Valentine Zeilinski, Howard Miller, Bernard Baker, Roger Chabot, Stanley Majka. and Joseph Biernacki.

Gerald Smith and Leonard Leboeut made the varsity debating team, while Roger Meagher recorded arguments .pro and con. W'ith such talented orators as these, chances of winning the debating cup again next year look good.

The Alumni Association The reorganized Bartlett High School Alumni Association has completed its second successful year, and officers of the organization are pleased to announce that the .membership now totals approximately 200. Fifty-one members of the Class of 1932 were admitted immediately after the graduation last year, and during the year several new members were added. In behalf of the Alumni Association, we wish to extend our congratulations to the class of 1933 and to offer an invitation to each graduate to become a member of the association. By so doing, closer contact between the alumni and the school will be maintained, and the continued success of the organization will be assured. Once again it is our pleasure to announce that the scholarship of S200 will be awarded to the most deserving member of the graduating' class tlhis year. The splendid cooperation of the public, the school officials, and the members of the association in every activity undertaken by the organization, despite the adverse conditions, made the raising of the required amount much easier. The recipient of the award will be determined by the following committee: Herbert C. fBranch, chairman of the School Committee, James A. Lobban, Superin- tendent of Schools: 'Cyril C. Smith. Principal of Bartlett High Schoolg Ernest R. McGuinness, president of the Alumni Association, Thomas E. Sweeney, chairman of the Scholarship Colmmitteeg August Magnant, vice-president of the Alumni body, and Miss Josephine Papski, member of the executive committee. Last year Miss Mary Waterhouse was selected, and the presentation was made at the graduation exercises by Ernest R. McGuinness. At the present time Miss NVaterhouse is continuing her studies at the State Teachers College in Bridgewater. The Football Dance, which the Alumni has instituted as an annual affair in the list of activities to swell the scholarship fund, continues to be the big event of the year for the organization and is a success both financially and socially. One of the pleasing features of this affair is the fact that it has attracted the largest number of the year to the Municipal Auditorium. The large attendance at these affairs is due to the splendid cooperation of the Social Committee, capably headed by Arthur F. Fiddes, members of the association, and the faculty of Bartlett and Mary El. Wells High Schools. At the annual meeting of the organization held May S, 1933. Ernest R. Mc- Guinness was selected to lead the association for the third year as president, the vote being unanimous. August Magnant was re-elected vice president for his second term, and Miss Irene Martin was named secretary. Miss Margaret Malboeuf was elected treasurer to succeed Miss Lillian Berthiaume, who refused re-election. Under the leadership of such capable officers, all of whom have devoted much of their time to various activities, the organization hopes to launch new undertakings. Several successful social activities and entertainments were conducted during the year, the feature event being the Alumni Summer Dance. The affair was held in the Municipal Auditorium and was attended by more than 300 couples, who thereby contrilbute-d a substantial sum to be turned into the .schozlarship fund. Mr and Mrs. Cyril C. Smith and Mr. and Mrs. Herbert C. Branch were patrons and patronesses. Arthur F. Fiddes, chairman of the social committee, was assisted by the following members: Miss Lillian Berthiaume, Miss Yvonne Lizotte, Miss Irene Martin, Miss Blanche Pratt, Miss Enid Wayman, Miss Margaret Maiboeuf, Miss Helen Woznicki. Miss Allocoque lBranniff. Miss Yvette Martin, Miss Mary Water- house, Miss Arlene Kosmaler, J.

Bran- niff, Ralph Racicot, Carl Wilson, John Davis, William Klebart, Samuel Wylie, Ho- ward McGuinness, Julian Couture, Curtis Casey, and Francis Babcock. August 24, 1932, the association conducted an outing at Point Breeze. A pro- gram of water and field sports and other novelty events was held, and dancing in the pavilion followed. In arranging the outing, Arthur F. Fiddes was assisted by Ernest Wagner, Henry Meagher, Margaret Malboeuf, Yvonne Lizotte, John Preissler, Roman Nowalcki, Mary Waterhouse, Arlene Kossmaler.
