Tap is the object of much teasing and tormentlng concern- ing one of those numerous hills that surround Ludlow, but he can take it. Tap plays baseball and covers third base with much alertness except when a certain Junior sits on the bleachers. His plans for the future are indefinite, but in any case we wish him luck.

Not me,'7 says Chick. I've got more important things to do. Whereupon he takes his old corncob pipe out and envelopes his brain in circles of smoke in order to con- centrate on some thought unknown to all except himself. After leaving Black River, Chick plans to enter some college and take up electrical engineering in order to increase his knowl- edge of electrical appliances and fixtures. Class Song Words By Florence Spaulding and Bernard Snow Music By Eroe Durose and Fred Snow We are gathered here today Ere we vvend our upward way, Gathered here to bid old B. R. A. adieu. As we travel on our Way, May we honor B. R. A. May we never let her fair name be disgraced. Many happy hours We've spent, As We enter fields anew, As upon our tasks intent, We have worked together all the four years through. Or whatever we may do, On her precepts let our future lives be based. CHORUS Old B. R. A., our fond good-byes, Not without many tears and sighs. Fondly We'll cherish in memory Each golden hour we've spent with thee. Q-0-9+ oo-Q b 0 Q 1 0004 4 4 4- 044'-oo-0-Q-4-Q-Q4-9-90+ +o++++0+++Q0-0-0-990-0-O-0 2 2 Q . c++

At a first glance one would think Paull' quite modest, but you would soon discover that in a crowd she's loads of fun and really a necessity. It is rumored that she is inclined to adore a certain brunette but whatever the future has in store for you, the Class of '35 wishes you the best of luck.

Bernard is well known for his scholastic record and for his stories and poetry in English Class. He is bashful in school but not in a group of boys and girls. A member of many school activities he will be missed as editor of The Banner. Bernard won a scholarship to Middlebury College this fall and we know that he will succeed in whatever field of work he chooses. Bonne chance!

Florence of the lovely complexion and beautiful teeth, seemed to like to go on basketball trips until she went to Montpelier, now she would as soon gaze at the picture on her bureau. Florence is undecided as to where she will attend school but wherever she goes we hope she may bring them as many giggles as she has brought us. 4-+0-4+QQo-Q Q Q Q Q Q sooo-oo 0+-0-Q-0-vo-coo-ooo.-9-Q-Q4-oo-o so-Q-9+ 00-9 so 0-0 off 4-0 oo -0+

THE BANNER Pdyerd 0 O Q Class Histor Wt -0--04-040-4+ +44-044444 +4-+4-4-4-4-0+ +4-9 X X ++4+0Q W By William Clark On the morning of September 6, 1931, the doors of Black River Academy opened to a new class, a group of green objects called Freshmen. During the first week we got acquainted with our teachers, our fellow students and our life as Freshmen. Our teachers were as follows: Mr. Boyd, principal, Mr. Holder, coach and Sciences, Mr. Dorsey, Mathematics, Miss Watters, Latin and French, Miss Perry, English, Miss Pritchard, Home Economics, Mrs. Walker and Miss Skelton, Junior High, and Miss Sonier, History and Music. Mr. Holder was our class sponsor. Our class oflicers were: President, Myron Josselyn, vice president, Bernard Snow, sec- retary, Helen Dowhan, and treasurer, Albert Hislop. The first social event was the Freshman reception which we all attended with our streaming colors of green. The Junior Prom was given May 20 by the Juniors to the Seniors. Pat Hislop, Myron Josselyn, Martin Howe, Herbert Archer, and Sheridan Spaulding repre- sented our class in athletics. The girls participating in athletics were Marjory Lewis, Jennie Rochulka, Rebecca Davis, and Mary Pearsons. Our class was well represented in extra- curricular activities. As the end of school drew near we began to think of the dignity we would possess next September as Sophomores, guarding a new group of Freshmen. By Lillian Goldstone On September 6, 1932, we proudly took our places on the Sophomore side of the study hall, after a long vacation had mellowed our greenness. Miss Perry was our sponsor. Our class was considerably smaller than in our Freshman year since many of our class- mates had failed to return. Among these were: Myron Josselyn, Edna Beswick, Katherine Co- burn, and Alfred Prouty. We gained two valuable classmates, however, in Josephine Janowski and Charles Van Bibber. There were many changes in the faculty. Mr. Holder succeeded Mr. Boyd as principal, Mr. Carter replaced Mrs. Walker, Mr. Kim- ball assumed Mr. Holder's duties in Science, and Miss Dunton filled Miss Skelton's position. Miss Perry, Miss Watters, and Miss Pritchard returned to resume their respective classes. Our class OHGICQTS were: Rebecca Davis, president, Mary Pearsons, vice president, Mildred Hoisington, secretary, Albert Hislop, treasurer. There were many activities that year. Miss Perry directed Dramatic Club, Mr. Carter, Banner Board, Miss Watters, Literary and De- bating, Miss Pritchard, Home Economics Club, and Mrs. Jenkins, Glee Club. We were well represented in each of these. We shone especially in the field of Ath- letics. Herbert Archer, Raymond Giddings, Al- bert Hislop, and Emil Lampart went out for baseball, basketball and football. In addition, Bernard Snow represented the class in base- ball, and Martin Howe, in football. In track were William Clark, Albert Hislop, Martin Howe, and Harry Jasky. Rebecca Davis and Mary Pearsons represented us in girls' basket- ball. Of course the big event of the year was the Freshman Reception, which was held Sep- tember 30. lt was our chance to make the Freshmen tremble, and we certainly tried. On the committee were: Rebecca Davis, Lillian Goldstone, Albert Hislop, Mildred Hoisington, Elaine Paige and Mary Pearsons. Under the supervision of Mrs. Jenkins, the Glee Clubs attended the Southern Vermont Festival, held in Bellows Falls, on April 21. -9- ++o-0-0-+4-4-0
