OFFICERS OF THE SENIOR CLASS This record of our activities would be rather inadequate if we failed to give our officers the tribute due them. They worked hard promoting class spirit, in collecting dues, and generally putting the class over. They can truthfully say that the adminis- trati on of their duties was capable and successful. Early in the year nominations were succeeded by a fiery campaign. Concerted electioneering took place before the primaries. Finally, the most popular candidates were chosen, and the class expected to vote; but at this point something unusual arose. A motion was made to introduce sticker candidates into the ballot. A close vote on the measure was anticipated, but the Seniors emphatically voted not to consider it, and the idea died in its infancy. The election was held, and the officers pictured above were appointed. We feel satisfied with our choice and know that they have done their best. Orchids to our President, John Brodde Bjorklund; Vice-President, Joseph R. Levenson; Secretary- Treasurer, Robert J. Cahill, and Class Committee Members, John Beatty (Chairman), Casty J. Ajauskas, Arthur S. Applebaum, Alvin G. Plackter, Everett J. Daniels. F. A. R. Seven

CLASS BANQUET 1937 On the evening of May 6, 1937, under the official sponsorship of the school, a banquet at the Hotel Brunswick was tendered by the graduating class in honor of their long-beloved friend and master, Charles Fenno Winslow. Under the leadership of David J. Baraban, chairman of the Banquet Committee, of Fred Keyes, Daniel P. Ctecey, Francis L. Slattery, and John J. Gately, a meal and series of after-dinner talks were arranged which kept every one present in a state of thorough contentment. Present were Mr. Joseph L. Powers, our headmaster, who managed to retain his dignity through all the extraordinary events of the night and who spoke to us all earn- estly and sincerely; the master of ceremonies, Mr. Lee J. Dunn, the guardian angel of every Class I boy; Mr. Fred P. H. Pike, who in a short, pithy speech proved to be one of the most interesting speakers of the evening; Mr. Leon J. Glover, who actually managed to make the Latin language over into an instrument of wit in his well-pre- pared talk, the more entertaining for its bringing in the personalities of various boys present; and Mr. Max Levine, who will not be long forgotten for his vivid explanation of why the class should meet again and again in the future, and how the meetings should be arranged with regularity. President Brodde Bjorklund made himself rather the hero of the whole occasion by acclaiming, with the rest of the class, Jeff Winslow, our bona fide classmate in this year 1937 now and forever unto the end of the world. Mr. Winslow retaliated in the manner that has made him popular with everyone every year with a humorous speech, in which he regaled his classmates and which came straight from the heart. We thank you most heartily, Classmate Winslow, for granting this honor to the Class of ' 37, all of which looks up to you as their friend and benefactor. Let us hope there will be many more such evenings with the class all together, including Charles Fenno Winslow. D. S. M. Eight
