Donovan Miss Agnes G. Nash and Miss E. Beatrice Mahaney Foreword Life is a wonderful adventure. To the child, each day is filled with its thrills of discovery, achievement and growth. True teachers, inspired by their great opportunity for service, living constantly in the atmosphere of enthusiastic youth, and assisting in opening the eyes of little children to the beauties and joys which lie all about them, can easily continue such a life of wonderful adventure. May this be the good fortune of the members of this class of 1927, who have received such a full and effective educa- tion for service from their Alma Mater, is the wish of their friend, AVallace C. Boyden H LIBaArtY OF I ' EACHERS €OllEG£ OF CITY OF BOSTON To WALLACE C. BOYDEN eminent educator and loyal friend, this Class Book is affectionately dedicated as a token of the esteem in which he is held by the Elementary Senior Class of Nineteen Twenty-Seven. WILLIAM H. J. KENNEDY Dean MARGARET M. SALLAWAY Adviser of Women D O O THE ELEMENTARY SENIOR CLASS THE STUDENT PRINTS MAY E. ARMSTRONG I love a growing thing. May is our botany specialist. We expect her to carry on the great work of Luther Burbank, and to add one more supreme achievement — the growing of apple pie. LILLIAN C. ARONSON A merry heart goes all the way. Lil certainly believes in the early bird adage. She was always studying when the rest of us arrived; we suspect that she was following a psychological principle. BEATRICE C. BAMBERG Music hath charms to soothe the savage breast. Beatrice is the vesper of that tuneless throng in Room 50. Although she seemed very quiet, we always depended upon her to lead us through the intricacies of those rote songs. FLORENCE E. BEAN Let ' s go hand in hand, not one before another. Did you ever see Beanie without Bonnie? What wonderful thing true friendship is! k4 THE STUDENT PRINTS AUDREA BISHOP A rose with all its sweetest leaves yet folded. A true friend — that ' s Audrea. She has shown us that application and persistence are but pass keys to accomplishment. We should do well to follow her example. J. LILLIAN BLOOMBERG A will to success, is half the fight. We hope, Lil, that when you begin teaching, you won ' t forget yourself and begin reciting Horatius at the Bridge. FLORENCE G. BOGRETTE Council ' 25; Music Club ' 25; Class Treasurer ' 28; Athletic Club ' 26 ' 27; 1st Vice-President Welfare Club ' 27; Student Frints Staff. We cannot choose but love thee. By her sweet, winning way, Florence has woven her- self into our hearts. What would our clubs have done without her? RUTH S. BRODIE For my voice I have lost it With halloing and singing of anthems. All is well and wisely put. If Rufus cannot sing neither can we attain her Olympian calm. THE STUDENT PRINTS MYRNA F. BRYANT 7 would help others, out of friendly feeling. Myrna has all the attributes to which most of us aspire. Looks, talents, mental aptitudes, and a charm- ing personality. What is there left to wish for? ANNA T. BURKE Athletic Club Treasurer ' 26. The wise, for cure, on exercise depend. Our athlete! Were you ever in the way of one of her balls? We should like to know where she buys such charming sport clothes. ANNA T. BURNS Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27; Drama Club ' 26, ' 27; Welfare Club Treas- urer; Student Council. Made up of wisdom and of fun; Medley of all that ' s dark and clear, Of all that ' s funny, all that ' s dear. The poet must have had a mental picture of our Anna when he wrote the above lines. MARY C. BUTLER Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27. Modest doubt is called the beacon of the wise. Our boy! Did you ever know a time when Mary refused to play ball? She always looked charming in spite of her lack of femininity. THE STUDENT PRINTS ANNA M. CALLAHAN Athletic Club 26. Zealous, yet modest. Did you ever see such a lot in such a little? Although one of our most petite classmates, Anna is not the kind of girl one would look down upon. MARGARET R. CALLAHAN You ivere ever good at sudden commendations. Peg is another one of our modishly-dressed class- mates. Her genial personality makes her a favorite of all with whom she comes in contact. JOSEPHINE E. CAMPANA Thy modesty ' s a candle to thy merit. Our Jo may seem rather shy, but if you look more closely, you will realize that a charming disposition and a jolly personality lie behind those sparkling brown eyes. MARY T. CAREW Cudgel thy brains no more about it. Have you ever dined with Mary? Such amounts of calories as that girl can consume and still keep a dainty figure ! Tell us the secret, Mary. THE STUDENT PRINTS MARY C. CARR ' Tis quality, not quantity that counts. If it were not so prosaic, we should describe our auburn-haired classmate with that time-worn adage about the material in little packages. MARGARET M. CARTON Athletic Club ' 26. A faithful friend is the medicine of life. A true friend, a good pal, and a regular all-round sport — that ' s Peg! JENNIE V. CHILDS For she is the kind whose nature never varies. How we envy Bonnie her serene outlook on life. Without any visible signs of e xcitement or worry, she completes the tasks which seem mountainous to the rest of us. MARGARET E. CLEARY Music Club ' 25, ' 26; Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27; Drama Club ' 26. And the night shall be filled ivith music Have you heard this winsome blonde play the piano? Not only that, she also knows all there is to be known about Bridge. THE STUDENT PRINTS JULIA CLUCK Vice-President Science Club ' 26; member of the Student Prints staff. Accomplishments were native to her mind. When Julia ' s name is mentioned, one hears, Oh, that ' s the clever young lady of Beethoven fame. Is there anything at which she does not excel? We doubt it. GERALDINE M. COFFEY A smiling look has she, a figure slight. Modish Mitzie will certainly have to do some intricate designing if she wishes to compete with our Jerry. DELIA G. COHAN Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27. A lord among wits. Rhymes with a reason are her specialty. Did you know that Delia and Theresa once missed a matinee? No, we do not expect that it will happen again. F. GERTRUDE COHEN Hang sorrow. Care ' ll kill a cat. The Portia of our class. Even the Faculty have been astounded by the reams of logic which flow so easily from the tongue of our class comedienne. Mrs. Otto Pern£ THE STUDENT PRINTS ELEANOR S. COLWELL Simplicity is the keynote of her character. Eleanor is one of those quiet buds whose slow un- folding emphasizes the beauty within. EDITH E. CORCHEMNY Merit is greater than fame. If we were allowed just two words with which to describe our lady of affairs, we would write Capability Plus. Mrs, U el££r-l ALICE A. COSTELLO Drama Club ' 26, ' 27; Art Club ' 26, ' 27. Her sunny locks lie on her temples like a golden fleece. Alice has not, as yet, succumbed to the lure of the bobbins; shears, for her hair is still her crowning glory. RUTH F. COUGHLAN Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27. A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance. One of our fun-loving graduates who can do a little of everything — and do each part well. We predict a promising future for Ruthie. THE STUDENT PRINTS BERTHA M. CRIMMINS Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27. Thy modesty ' s a candle to thy merit. Although Bertha was very quiet in class, she certainly knew all about coffee when the time came. CATHERINE L. CROWLEY So plain, unaffected, and sincere. Quiet and reserved some of the time, but oh — the rest of the time! Never mind, though, Kay, we predict great things for you. LILLIAN C. CROWLEY Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27. To be merry best becomes you. Although petite, Lillian is an all-round athlete. She looks most familiar in gym costume, and it is a treat to see her play basketball. KATHERINE E. CURRAN Drama Club ' 26, ' 27. Good company in a journey makes the way the shorter. Although Katherine was always very quiet, the few that know her well will testify that the dynamite is all there. THE STUDENT PRINTS MARY P. CURRAN Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27; Art Club ' 26; Council ' 26. Better late than never. No member of the faculty can ever say that Mary did not pass in a piece of work; she always got it in — later. KATHLEEN A. DALY Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27. There buds the promise of celestial worth. Kathleen has the power of making a friend of every- one she meets, because she is always willing to help her friends out of difficulties. IRENE J. DeMEULENAER Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27. To knoiv is to do. Irene ' s name attracted much attention among the faculty, and her brilliant recitations attracted the atten- tion of all who heard them. ALICE L. DESMOND Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27; Art Club ' 26, ' 27. Of manner gentle; of affection mild. For some unknown reason, Alice is always bedecked with Tech souvenirs. No, Al, we ' re not hinting, not even suggesting — we ' re just wondering. THE STUDENT PRINTS HELEN G. DESMOND Athletic Club ' 26, 27. Sweet as a springtime flower. Helen has made a reputation for herself by wearing exquisite dresses and being, personally, sweet, demure, and lovable. HELEN A. DeWITT Art Club ' 25, ' 26; Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27. Patience is powerful. Wouldn ' t Helen be a wonderful inspiration — some- thing to look up to, you know? There is just one thing puzzling her — shall she bob it again, or try to put it up? MARY C. DOHERTY Music Club ' 26, ' 27; Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27. Music hath charms. Here ' s the musician of Section Four. She hasn ' t made many appearances, but we know all about her musical ability. MILDRED A. DOLLIVER Music Club ' 26; Drama Club ' 26, ' 27. Our deeds determine 11s as truly as we determine our Mildred often saved the day for us by asking ques- tions in class. Do you remember the charming Countess in the Bells of Beaujolais ? THE STUDENT PRINTS Jo f 7£SSA ALICE J. DONAHOE Athletic Club Treasurer ' 26; Secretary ' 27; Student Council ' 27. Nameless, unremembered acts of kindness and of love. Alice certainly fulfilled her office of section repre- sentative to the letter. She is well known, too, as an athlete, excelling in basket ball. ALICE R. DONAHUE Council ' 25; Vice-President of Class ' 26; 1st Vice-President of S.S.G.A. ' 27. Woman s at best a contradiction still. Al conveys her meaning by a glance from those eyes which tell you so. We once thought her demure — . MARGARET B. DONIGAN Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27; Music Club ' 26, ' 27. She was made up of feminine affections. Peg is a popular girl who has been first choice on all our dance committees. We shall always remember her as the coy Suzette in the Bells of Beaujolais. LOUISE F. DOREY Kindness in women shall win our love. Although Louise seems very quiet, we who know her will vouch for the fact that she is both a good student and a good pal. THE STUDENT PRINTS ETHEL C. DOWNEY Athletic Club 26, ' 27. Thou art sweet, and made of pure delight. Because of Ethel ' s ardent efforts, it is doubtful whether we shall ever forget Patter Go the Nuts on a Frosty Morning. DOROTHEA J. DUANE Athletic Club; Music Club. A charming voice, a bonny eye, A passing pleasing tongue. We can thank Dot, our model of good posture, for the many witticisms which kept us always laughing. DOROTHY E. DUNN Drama Club ' 27; Music Club ' 26, ' 27. Strength of mind is exercise, not rest. Dot was always seeking pleasure, as well as know- ledge, and she obtained her full share of each. HELENA F. DWYER Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27. Grace was in all her steps. Helena is as light of step as a dancer as she is nimble of wit as a student. THE STUDENT PRINTS MARIE A. DWYER Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27; Music Club ' 25. Without halting, without rest, Lifting better up to best. Marie would never be satisfied until she had raised everything to the perfection mark. She has proven this in her position of Class Prophet. MARY M. EDWARDS Drama Club ' 27; Art Club ' 25; Athletic Club ' 20, ' 27. Untouched by any shade of years, May those kind eyes forever dwell. How we envy Mary her serene disposition! We might have said perfect disposition if it were not for the pottery lamp incident. KATHERINE A. ELDRIDGE Student Council ' 27; Music Club ' 25; Art Club ' 25. Wit, she hath, without desire to make known what she hath. Katherine is always the first one at school in the morning, and she begins to work immediately. No wonder that she has been successful in her work. ROSE M. FALBO Art Club ' 25, ' 26, ' 27; Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27; Drama Club ' 26, ' 27. Knoioledge is power. Whenever a capable girl must be chosen, Rose is selected. She is an all-round girl, interested in sports, art, and study. She certainly is a general favorite. THE STUDENT PRINTS GENEVIEVE J. FARLEY Art Club ' 25, ' 26, ' 27; Drama Club ' 26, ' 27; Welfare Club, Secretary ' 26, President ' 27; Business Manager of Student Prints; Council ' 25. She looks and mores — a queen. Gen will be remembered for her work in the various clubs. Those who have seen her hand-work agree that she knows art with a capital A. HELEN A. FINN Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27; Art Club ' 26. A little woman may hare a great character. Another lady from that mile-square city. Helen certainly sees the silver lining to every cloud, and she gives all her friends a glimpse of it. ANN I. FLYNN Athletic Club 26; Drama Club ' 25, ' 27; President Drama Club ' 27. A countenance in which did meet, Sweet records, promises as sweet. Ann, one of our most popular and promising class- mates, is well known for her dramatic ability. We wonder if her charming impersonations will be confined to Collins Hall. MARY R. FREIBURGER Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27. Her happy way of taking life makes one forget all sorrow and strife. If Mary wishes to be distinguis hed from her pupils, she will have to assume an especially dignified air to counteract that naive friendliness which we find so charming. THE STUDENT PRINTS ROSE E. GAFFNEY Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27; Drama Club ' 26. I find life not gray, but rosy. Another one of our popular Maldenites. Rose makes a wonderful confidant and true friend because of that quick sympathy and sparkling humor which we all love. MARIAN B. GALLIVAN Editor-in-Chief of Student Prints; Music Club ' 25; Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27; Student Council ' 27. She is of so free, so kind, so apt, so blessed a dis- position. Marian conceals her capabilities by a jolly counte- nance and care-free attitude. Our editor certainly has earned her place among our most versatile girls. LOUISE C. GALVIN Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27. Here ' s to a girl who is true blue, We all love her through and through. Did you ever know a time when she wouldn ' t take the other side of an argument? To know Louise well is to value her friendship. FRANCES H. GARRETT Music Club ' 25. A sweeter woman ne ' er drew breath. In her three years of college life, Fran has never been known to balk at a difficult task, or refuse to help any- one in need. THE STUDENT PRINTS MARY J. GLANCY Drama Club ' 27; Music Club 25; Athletic Club ' 26. In every place, in every season, fresh and fair. Here is one of our prettiest and sweetest. Somehow our prettiest are our most quiet. Mary also has a keen sense of humor. ELIZABETH M. GLEESON Art Club ' 26, ' 27; Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27; Drama Club ' 26, ' 27: Student Prints staff. She may be quiet, she may be shy. But there ' s a twinkle in her eye. Her poetry anthologies were a wonder to behold. Elizabeth has the perseverance to make all of her undertakings successful, whether they concern social activities or school interests. SADIE GOLDFINE Art Club ' 26; Science Club ' 26. Style and clothes are for her kind, But she also has an excellent mind. Do you remember your New Year ' s resolutions to do everything perfectly and have all assignments in on time? Well, Sadie keeps all of hers, and still has time for many social activities. ROSE GOLDSMITH I cannot all my moments prove. They say that truth is established by constant repeti- tion. If this is so, Ro, you have convinced us about something. THE STUDENT PRINTS HELEN GORODETZKY Student Council ' 27 A little body with a mighty mind. Nothing has proved impossible for Helen. She has endeared herself to us by her willingness to help at all times. EDITH L. GREENBERG Art Club ' 26; Science Club ' 26. Over her books long does she toil, And loves to burn the midnight oil. One of our intellectual classmates. Edith has learned to utilize her time so that everything may be done thoroughly without interfering with outside interests. BESSIE L. GREENSTEIN Good sense and good nature are never separated. Wherever fate places Bessie, she will be loved for that calmness and good nature which seem to emanate from her. CATHERINE L. GRUETER Tested and true — fine gold. If handwriting is an index to character, we are sure that Catherine must possess a very firm, well moulded, and beautiful one. THE STUDENT PRINTS AGNES E. HALLAHAN Drama Club ' 26, ' 27; Music Club ' 25, ' 26. Music washes away from the soul The dust of everyday life. We all envy Agnes the ease with which she takes life. When she played either the piano or her uke, all work was stopped while we listened. HANNAH J. HANLON As innocent as any child, She is very meek and mild. Quiet? Yes, but what a wealth of humor, under- standing, and sympathy, we find in Dolly ' s lustrous brown eyes. ANNA G. HARRINGTON Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27; Advisory Board of Welfare Club ' 27. I ' d dance the light fantastic, ' Til the wee sma ' hours of morn. The delightful, capricious flapper of T.C.B. Did any- one ever hear of Anna ' s refusing an invitation to a dance because she had to study? HAZEL A. HARRINGTON Drama Club ' 26, ' 27. A very gentle being and of good conscience. Hazel ' s quiet manner and sweet personality have endeared her to all with whom she has come in contact. THE STUDENT PRINTS HAZEL S. HARRIS Charming as the sound of music. If Hazel ' s teaching ability can compare with her musical ability, her future success is assured. MARY B. HART Athletic Club ' 2G, ' 27. Better late than never. President Emeritus of our 9.04% o ' clock club. Mary is such a consolation when we are late. She has timed the distance from Roxbury Crossing to school down to seconds. MARY W. HASTRY Athletic Club ' 2G, ' 27. She doeth little kindnesses Which most leave undone or despise. If Mary manages that new car as capably as she has helped us to manage our school affairs, we ' ll take a ride with her at any time. ANNA G. HAYES She hath a mind which happily blends. Grave sense, and fancies lighter. Anna is simple, sincere, and unpretentious in all that she says or does. Her attitude is always friendly, and one could not help loving her. THE STUDENT PRINTS ELLA I. HAYES Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27; Director of Athletic Club ' 27; Music Club ' 25. One could mark her merry nature By the twinkle in her eye. Our invincible Babe Ruth. It seems a pity that such a talent for baseball should be wasted on one of our fair sex. JULIA R. HENNESSEY Art Club 20, ' 27; Music Club ' 26; Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27. A thing worth doing is worth doing well. Julia has the happy faculty of knowing when to work and when to play. She is equally capable whether it be managing scenery for the Operetta or playing basketball. MARY M. HERLIHY Music Club ' 26. Not that she loved study less, But she loved fun the more. Although Polly is too modest to exhibit her talents very often, her ability as both a pianist and vocalist is the envy of all who know her. ELIZABETH HOLM Art Club ' 26, ' 27; Music Club ' 26; Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27. The Muses of acting have smiled upon her. We are sure now that Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, because Betty is the exception which proves the rule. THE STUDENT PRINTS MARGARET S. HUMPHREY I ' m sure care ' s an enemy to life. That enviable head of curls is just the finishing touch to the slim, modishly dressed figure which everyone knows as Pee. CATHERINE T. HURLEY She is as happy-hearted as the Spring. There is a great deal of personality behind that quiet smile. For further information, we refer you to the purchaser of that beautiful watch. MARY F. HURLEY Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27. In speech and gesture, form and face Showed she was come of a gentler race. Mary seemed a lone candidate for class-baby honors when she asked to be excused from school because she had the mumps. SUE G. HURLEY Class Secretary ' 25; Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27; Music Club ' 25; Drama Club ' 27. None knew her but to love her. None named her but to praise. When Sue smiles, the class smiles with her, but if she were sad — then we ' d be sad too. THE STUDENT PRINTS MARTHA L. JOHNSON Quite the pleasantest girl one could find. Did you ever know anyone who could slip in and out of trouble so easily? To wish Martha success would be de trop ; her originality makes that an established fact, tf d ywd! I, US ' 1 ANNA B. JORDAN Saying little, thinking much. Whoever saw Anna without Dora? We don ' t think it ever happened, unless Anna was on the other side of the soda fountain or behind the post. EVELYN A. KARCHER Her voice was ever soft Gentle and low, an excellent thing in woman. Always prepared is Evelyn ' s motto, and whoever saw her otherwise? E.K., L.D., M.D. What ' s in those initials? Ask anyone from Jamaica Plain. ELEANOR B. KEANE Athletic Club ' 26, 27; Music Club ' 25, ' 26; Art Club ' 25. I ' ll be merry and free, I ' ll be sad for naebody. To whom did we look for new ideas? AVhy, Eleanor, of course, and she never failed us. THE STUDENT PRINTS MARJORIE P. KENDRICK Art Club ' 26, ' 27. Her ways are ways of pleasantness And all her paths are peace. ' ' Margie is tall, slender, and wears such stunning clothes ! She has often saved the day for us by putting artistic designs on our note-books. HYACINTH A. KENNEALLY The flower of virtue. Hyacinth ' s hair was so beautiful that we are almost sorry that she followed the majority. JOSEPHINE G. KENNEALLY Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27; Art Club ' 26. Thou knowest clearly when to speak And when to keep silent. We don ' t know where Jo gets her jokes, but when she asks, Did you hear this one? you may be sure that a really good story will follow. GRACE G. KIERNAN you should fail, Why then I hardly know who shoidd succeed. She was shy in her first year, and timid in her second year — but in the third year! Why didn ' t you blossom out earlier, Grace, so that we might have known you better ? THE STUDENT PRINTS FLORENCE M. KILLION Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27; Art Club ' 27. Oh, let me dance to a merry tune. Funny, whimsical Flossie — always Frank. She keeps one guessing, for she always does the unexpected. DORA E. KING That she ' s a jolly good fellow, No one will ever deny. Dora is one of those rare beings who is liked by every- body. She ' ll eat with you or talk with you at almost any time. Yes, we all agree — Dora is one of ' 27 ' s best. SARAH KOPLOVSKY Council ' 25; Art Club ' 26, ' 27. She ' d open her round eyes, As if in some immense suprise. Sarah and Jo are our inseparables; we never see them apart. We think, however, that Sarah ' s eyes set her apart from most of us. SOPHIA KOZIEWICZ Almost to all things could she turn her hand. Sophie works over time at being a good sport. This young lady is certainly a willing worker. If right were might, Sophie would be an honorary member of the Education Department. TYl ys.y on sTo T  ' «-. c! THE STUDENT PRINTS MILDRED A. KRESSER Council ' 25; Music Club ' 25; Art Club ' 26, ' 27. She teas a phantom of delight When first she gleamed upon my sight. Crickie excels in dancing, drawing, and study. With her hair and eyes, her favorite color would natur- ally be blue. SIBYL KUSKIN Joys have I many; cares have I none. In Syl ' s personality, there is something magnetic that makes us all love her. ANNE LEONARDI Nothing could daunt her Nor force her submission. She always asked the questions we didn ' t think of. We didn ' t mind, Anne, but think of the future pupils! ROSE LEVITT A willing heart adds feather to the heel. Such sweet tones as swelled from her throat were never heard elsewhere! THE STUDENT PRINTS ANNIE G. LIBBY Council ' 26. Happy I am, from care I ' m free, Why aren ' t they all contented like me? Nan certainly does act as if she were contented. We have yet to see her frown, or hear her speak a cross word to any one. MARGARET O. LIEN Secretary of Music Club ' 25; Secretary of Art Club ' 26. As fair and frail As May ' s first lily in a Northern vale. One of T.C. ' s best. She dances well, draws beauti- fully, and knows all there is to know about Norse Mythology. Peg ' s dignity is the kind that makes its possessor doubly attractive. JOSEPHINE M. LIMA No coward soul is mine. Josephine and her sister came to us in the second year. Previously they had attended a Normal School in Italy. We hope Josie has pleasant memories of us. VICTORIA M. LIMA The secret of success, is constancy of purpose. Victoria had made friends by her shy smile and friendly spirit. Her zealous work as a student will be long remembered. Good luck, Victoria. THE STUDENT PRINTS DOROTHY E. LURIE Beauty lives with kindness. When your portrait by the famous painter was com- pleted, why didn ' t you send us each a copy? ALICE A. LYONS Vice-President of Art Club ' 26; President of Art Club ' 27; Music Club ' 26; Vice-President S.S.G.A. ' 27. Pretty to walk with, Witty to talk with, And pleasant too, to think upon. Al has never missed a B.C. Prom, but she sailed smoothly through classes the next day. ALICE R. MacISAAC Vice-President of Class ' 27; Vice-President of Art Club ' 27; Treas- urer of Art Club ' 26; Student Prints staff ' 27; Drama Club ' 27. She has a gentle face — but, oh, what naughty eyes. One of our most popular girls, whose wit, charm, and brains have enabled her to manage our class affairs so capably. ANNA M. MADDEN Athletic Club 26, ' 27; Drama Club ' 27; Art Club ' 27. Life ' s a jest and all things show it. Anna is the girl who had charge of lunch checks — those passports to noonday bliss. We have yet to see her either cross or impatient. THE STUDENT PRINTS PAULINE MADDEN Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27. Her smile was prodigal of summery shine, Gayly persistent like a morn in June. Did you ever see Paul practicing for the track team down Huntington Avenue at 8.59 a.m.? That ' s all right ! She always comes out smiling. A very sweet girl is Miss Pauline. KATHLEEN B. MAHONEY Athletic Club ' 27; Drama Club ' 27. Short and sweet. Diminutive Kay is so very short that she is con- sidered the baby of her section. As she says, Good things come in small packages. HELEN W. MAIERS Music Club ' 25. A perfect woman, nobly planned, To warn, to comfort, and command. Winnie is always quiet, shy, and retiring, but we certainly envy her mental ability. DOROTHY C. MALONE Drama Club ' 25. She hath a voice so sweet and clear, Phcrbus might ivondering Stop to hear. It is not likely that we shall ever forget Dot ' s render- ing of Eugene Field ' s North Wind. THE STUDENT PRINTS MIRIAM I. MALONEY Of manners gentle. Miriam always gave a helping hand and a cheery smile where they were needed most. We appreciate her friendship. CATHERINE J. MANGAN The best of the sport is to do the deed And say nothing. Sweetness and dignity are met and nicely blended in Catherine. She certainly is a true friend and we are glad that we have known her. CATHERINE T. MANNING ' ' Her laugh and smile Make life worth while. A most attractive young lady. Do you remember her scuffle and her giggle? She can be serious, but she doesn ' t often wish to be. JULIA C. McANDREW Athletic Club ' 27; Drama Club 26; Art Club ' 26; Student Council ' 27; Student Prints staff. Never worries, never frets. Always jolly, full of pep. Sparkling with vitality — always loyal and true. Who could it be but Julia? (N.D. — B.C.) THE STUDENT PRINTS THERESA T. McCARTHY Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27. Made up of wisdom and of fun. What ' s the best show in town? Page Tess. She never told us that she kissed the Blarney Stone but where else did our Historian get her bewitching ways? MARY D. McCUSKER S.S.G.A. ' 27, Athletic Club ' 26; Drama Club ' 27; Music Club ' 25, ' 26. Fine manners are the mantle of fine minds. Mary is justly accredited with a high rank among our Best Looking candidates. But it is not her beauty alone which has charmed us; she has many lovable qualities. MYRTLE M. McDONALD Her very frowns are fairer far. Than smiles of other maidens are. Who was always ready to laugh at a good joke in class? Who was always rushing at the last moment to get her work in? CATHERINE H. McDONAGH Art Club ' 25, ' 26. She seems to shine with a sunny day. Catherine is the kind of girl who can tell you just what you need to know about every subject. How often she has offered us a helping hand ! THE STUDENT PRINTS helen m. Mcdonough Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27; Drama Club ' 27; Art Club ' 26, ' 27. None but herself can be her parallel. Helen is a rare combination of dignity plus fun. Although an industrious student, Helen never neglected the social activities of the class. HELEN M. McG INLEY Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27; Art Club ' 26; Secretary, Art Club ' 27. A maiden she, both mild and meek, Swift to hear and slow to speak. Sincerity and kindness are Helen ' s characteristics. Her chuckle is famous along the corridors of T.C.B. All in all, we had an ideal friend in Helen. BERTHA C. McGINTY Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27; Student Prints staff ' 27. True as the needle to the pole Or as the dial to the sun. Bertha has a pleasing personality and has endeared herself to many. Ever ready to work for the best interests of the class, Bertha showed her loyalty by her hearty cooperation. GRACE E. McKLNNON Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27; Director of Athletic Club ' 26. Play up, play up, and play the game. Mac stands out as the possessor of an affectionate nature and a keen sense of humor. Who hasn ' t thrilled as Grace got a basket? McKinnon, Rah! W1 r$ . BowkK THE STUDENT PRINTS LEONA M. McLANE Her words, like so many nimble servitors, trip about at her command. Leona should make a success as an actress. A dis- cussion never lags when she is near because she is ready to speak up when needed. Have you ever heard of Leona ' s love for stray cats? ii- J7 ,nUil DOROTHEA A. McLAUGHLIN 7 ' •J How her fingers went when they moved by note Through measure fine as she marched them o ' er The yielding plank of the ivory floor. Our wittiest classmate, interested for some un- known reason in dentistry. ELEANOR McNALLY Still waters run deep. Eleanor is always ready to extend the hand of friend- ship. We are sure that she will never follow the line of least resistance. VIOLET I. MEREDITH Art Club ' 25, ' 26, ' 27; Music Club ' 25, ' 26, ' 27. She never studied to be fairer Than Nature made her. Just as her name implies, she is a modest, petite Violet — but she glories in the title of Une Bonne Artiste. THE STUDENT PRINTS LORETTA M. MONAHAN Her golden hair in short Numidian curl. Can you picture Loretta with straight hair? Our memory of her will always be her curly locks and her bewitching smile. ALICE E. MOORE For every season she hath dressings fit. For Winter, Spring, and Summer. Alice is a believer in the saying, Variety is the spice of life. One need look no farther than this fair maiden to see what the well-dressed young lady is wearing. ALICE G. MORAN Mighty like a rose. Did you ever see Alice minus a wave? Her general air of spiek-and-spanness, and her sweetness, prove her to be the essence of daintiness. HELEN W. MOREY Tall, starry-eyed, sedate, Mistress of her fate. We all envy Helen that charming voice. Certainly, she does not merit that oft-heard advice to file down our voices. THE STUDENT PRINTS BARBARA M. MULCAHY Happy am I, from care I ' m free. Why aren ' t they all contented like me? For personality plus pep , one need look no farther than Barb. She is one of the minority who have not bobbed their hair. Why should she? Athletic Club ' 26, ' 2 ' Prints staff. MURIEL H. MURRAY Vice-President, Welfare Club ' 27; Student The worker never knows defeat. What should we have done without Muriel for our clubs, and her dog for our mascot? Did you know that her patron saint was Thomas? RUTH P. G. NABOR Music Club ' 26, ' 27. The mirror of all courtesy. We shall always remember Ruth for her sweet friend- liness. It seems that she is always happy, and willing to pass this happiness on. ALBERTA H. NICKERSON The tree of deepest root is found, Least willing still to quit the ground. All prizes, so they say, come in small packages. If this is so, then Alberta is the prize of T.C.B. THE STUDENT PRINTS MARY C. NORTON Drama Club 27; Athletic Club 26, ' 27. Mysterious maid, uncertain treasure. . . . Yet who would live, and live without thee? It does not require an elastic imagination to picture Mary Norton as the subject for an artist ' s A Portrait of a Lady. Mary meets all requirements. HELEN M. O ' CONNELL Music Club ' 25, ' 26, ' 27; Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27; Drama Club ' 27. Yea, music is the Prophet ' s art Among the gifts that God hath sent. Here ' s to Helen, a versatile girl who likes to play, dance, and sing! Her interests are varied and success will be hers inevitably. MARY T. O ' CONNELL Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27. In each cheek appears a pretty dimple. Happy-go-lucky Dolly worries only about whether she will be able to play basketball to-night — and she certainly can play. Did you ever know anyone so popular with the faculty? ALICE L. O ' CONNOR Drama Club ' 26, ' 27. Never idle a moment, but thrifty, and thoughtful of others. She is a veritable Marc Antony, as we all saw when she gave the speech for the Lincoln celebration. She may be quiet, but she has her share of humor. THE STUDENT PRINTS MARY C. O ' DONNELL Her countenance is the index of her mind. Mary ' s sweet manner has endeared her to us all, and we shall cherish pleasant memories of our Second Vice- President. RUTH M. O ' HARA Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27. Thy wit is as the greyhound ' s mouth; it catches. Ruth ' s clever wit and keen sense of humor have often made a dull moment delightful. Knowing her good qualities, we shall always remember her with affection. MARGARET I. O ' LEARY Athletic Club ' 26, 27; Drama Club ' 27. High erected thoughts seated in a heart of courtesy. Charming at all times, sincere in everything, and always willing to oblige — that ' s Margo. ALICE L. O ' NEIL An image of youth ' s fairy, fairy mountain. We fear that the public will have a difficult time in distinguishing Al from her pupils. Her fresh, youthful complexion needs no drug-store aid. THE STUDENT PRINTS T FREDA R. OPPER The readiness of doing doth express No other but the doers ivillingness. Freda ' s note-books were always ready weeks ahead of time; but she was generous and her grateful class- mates rise up to call her blessed. ANNE M. PANICO have loved my friends as I do virtue. Anne certainly lives up to the above. Damon and Pythias would have to take second place in a competi- tion with our twain — Barbara and Anne. ETHEL M. PARTRIDGE Does well, acts nobly; angels could do no more. Ethel has all the joyous enthusiasm of a child — especially when she is in the vicinity of the old Library. She is a charming girl, generous beyond measure. ETHEL M. QUEEN Class Treasurer ' 27; Council ' 27; Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27; Music Club ' 26; Art Club ' 27. ' A little maid of tender youth. And innocence, and simple truth. Queenie holds a spot in everybody ' s heart. It ' s an inexplicable thing — this attraction everyone feels towards our efficient little treasurer. THE STUDENT PRINTS M. EILEEN QUILTY Music Club 25, ' 26, ' 27; Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27. Here dwelleth no frowns nor anger. One of the patient sufferers on the literary board of our Class Book. But that ' s not all — remember the mandarin in The Dragon of Wu Foo ? Great, wasn ' t she? SARAH J. RABINOWITZ Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27. But 0, she dances such a ivayi Sarah, in spite of her talent, is not of the butterfly type. She tackles her lessons with the same ardor that she puts into learning the intricacies of the newest steps. M. FRANCES RATTIGAN Class President ' 25, ' 26, ' 27. Her air, her smile, her motions told Of womanly completeness. Three in one! We are fortunate in having a digni- fied president, a good sport, and a real friend — all in one. That ' s our Fran! RUTH ROSENGARD S ie ' s perfect to whirl with in a waltz. Oh, my dear! is Ruth ' s favorite expression, and we reciprocate by agreeing that Ruth is a dear. THE STUDENT PRINTS Mrs. a es, MARY J. RUDDICK Vice-President of Class ' 25; Council ' 26, ' 27; Secretary of Class ' 27 Associate Editor of Student Prints. A daughter of the gods, divinely tall, And most divinely fair. Yes, this is Mary. Tall and slender, she moves serenely on her way with calm, unruffled brow. Who- ever would guess the sparkling wit behind that quiet manner. BARBARA E. RYAN Music Club ' 25, ' 26, ' 27; Art Club ' 26, ' 27; Student Prints staff; Vice-President Welfare Club. Her works are so many windows, Through which we see a glimpse Of the world that lies within her. She certainly can do many fine things, the operetta for instance — and hard things, those terrible ads. More power to you, Barbara ! FLORENCE K. SARGENT Athletic Club ' 26; Drama Club ' 27. Laugh and the world laughs with you; Weep and you weep alone. This is Florence ' s motto, and she carries it out well. She might be called the girl with the perpetual smile, to say nothing of that captivating giggle. NORA A. SCANLON Athletic Club ' 26. Thou as Heaven art fair and young. Thine eyes like twin stars shining. Nora ' s sunny smile has won a place in many hearts. She is an earnest worker and a friend of all of us. THE STUDENT PRINTS BEATRICE SEGALL Even the birds ceased their song to listen. It is our fondest hope that Bee will continue to culti- vate her beautiful voice. We shall watch the Opera House Bulletins for news of her. RHODA E. SHAIN It is well to possess a quiet, invariable nature. Yes, Rhoda is quiet, but in spite of this fact, we think she needs no introduction. SARA I. SILVERMAN Art Club ' 25, ' 26. Actions speak louder than words. Here ' s to Sara! She ' s a loyal member of our class and a hard worker. We know she will reach the top of the ladder. MARY V. ST. THOMAS Music Club ' 25, ' 26. A countenance in which did meet, Sioeet records, promises as sweet. Mary is a quiet and demure little maiden with shining black hair and sparkling blue eyes — the very essence of sweetness. THE STUDENT PRINTS ELIZABETH K. SULLIVAN Drama Club 26, ' 27; Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27. A sweet face this, a charming manner. Sweet personality plus a great deal of rascality — that ' s Betty. She doesn ' t say much, but what she does say is worth while. MARGARET L. SULLIVAN Athletic Club ' 25, ' 26. Her color comes and goes, It trembles to a lily, It wavers to a rose. Who is there that does not know this sweet blushing lass, who, so we ' ve heard, aspires to the position of supervisor? MARION T. SWEENEY Music Club ' 25. Her laughter has a clearer ring Than all the bubbling of a spring. Happy-go-lucky, and full of the joy of living, is Marion. We wonder how she would manage to talk if her hands were tied. MARY C. TAPP Music Club ' 25. But so fair She takes the breath of men away. Fair and funny describes our Mary. ' Tis also whispered that were it not for her patronage, AVrigley might face bankruptcy. THE STUDENT PRINTS ELIZABETH I. TEAFFE Athletic Club ' 25. Of all the lights you carry in your face, joy shines farthest out to sea. It is rather hard on the imagination to think of Betty with anything more girlish than a boyish. HELEN M. TILLEY Athletic Club 26, ' 27. Graceful and useful in all that she did. Helen is Helen. You miss her when she ' s not there, and rejoice when she ' s come. KATHLEEN A. TOLAND A sweet girl graduate with golden hair. Kay, so it has been said, is an aspirant for Helen Wills ' honors. We are willing to back our Miss Goldi- locks every day and in every way. HELEN F. TWISS Athletic Club ' 27. Open, genial, friendly, kind — Friends like these are hard to find. Many a time has Helen stood between us and hunger. She surprised us this year by succumbing to the lure of the bob. Very becoming, Helen. THE STUDENT PRINTS MARY T. ULRICH Music Club ' 25, ' 26. The Lord loveth a cheerful giver. Mary Ulrich is one who is always willing to extend a helping hand to all her classmates. By her winning personality, she has made many lasting friends. ELVIRA L. VECCHIONE Art Club ' 26, ' 27; Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27. A friend in need is a friend indeed. Vera has it done has always been the consensus of opinion. Oh, the reams of notes this busy little student has collected! MARY I. VERACKA Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27. Oh! ivhere ' s the heart so wise Could unbeunlder ' d meet those matchless eyes? Another case of Damon and Pythias. Did you ever see Mary without Helen, or Helen — but we must not pursue this subject further. MARY L. WALSH Music Club ' 25. She smiled, and the shadows departed. Mary ' s hobby is being sweet and friendly to all about her. For some unknown reason, her favorite song is Row, Men, Row. THE STUDENT PRINTS HELEN C. WEISS Music Club ' 25, ' 26. Words are wonderful things. Helen could face any audience from the lecture plat- form and announce, Provide the subject and I ' ll do the rest. Mrs. 1 3 rr v ?h i 1 1 ' r EDNA A. WEIRICH A heart to resolve, a head to contrive, a hand to execute. Edna is gay, happy, and debonair. We were always amazed at her ability in spite of her carefree attitude towards lessons. MARGARET M. WELCH Athletic Club ' 25. For a light heart lives long. It really isn ' t necessary to tell about Peg ' s humor everyone knows that infectious giggle. ANNIE L. YOUNG Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27. A shy, retiring creature. To be quiet, to be a splendid student, and to be a regular sport — it seems too good to be true, doesn ' t it? But that ' s Annie — one of T.C. ' s best. THE STUDENT PRINTS SVEA E. FORSLUND Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27. . . As fair as the sun which colors her hair. In spite of her sweet seriousness, Svea is ever light- hearted and optimistic. How often she earned our gratitude by rescuing something edible for us in the lunch-hour rush ! MARGARET M. GLENNON There is a kind of character in thy life, That to the observer doth thy history unfold. Have you heard her play her violin? Did you know that she was our geography specialist? Her talents are innumerable. ELLEN VALUSKI Her smile is sweetened by her gravity. She came to us from Salem Normal, but has made a place for herself in our school and in our hearts. THERESA M. WHITE Athletic Club ' 26, ' 27. Only listen! How charmingly she talks. Theresa has but to open her lips to win our admira- tion. To speak beautifully is a rare accomplishment indeed. LEST WE FORGET THE STUDENT PRINTS To the Tune THE MEETING OF THE WATERS Old Irish Air TO ALMA MATER 1 When we came, Alma Mater, to thee, in our youth, When we lifted our eyes, full of trust, to thy face, When we felt there thy spirit and saw there thy grace, We desired then thy wisdom; we longed for thy truth. As the years have flown by with their toil and their joy, Thou hast quickened our ears, thou hast opened our eyes, Till the hill and the plain, till the seas and the skies, Are all throbbing with beauty no hand can destroy. 3 Thou hast shown us the world with its splendor and might; Its desire and its need thou hast given us to see; Mother, grant us thy passion for service, that we May lead youth, with its ardor, to seek for the light. Katharine H. Shute On September 11, 1924, a certain red building on the corner of Huntington and Longwood Avenues, which had recently been given the dignified name of The Teachers College of the City of Boston, received into its spacious hall THE CLASS nearly two hundred strong. That morning THE CLASS, known thereafter as the Class of ' 27, was welcomed by Mr. Boyden, the much loved principal of the College. We began to work at once, and in a week or so we were well initiated. Of course, we had many things to learn; for example, where to do our social visiting, what to do when tardy, how to keep a notebook that could be read a week after it had been written, and what to do and what not to do in Assembly. Having learned all this, we had another ordeal to go through. We were told one day that we were invited to an Acquaintance Party by our upper classmates. We went, eager to meet one another and ready for a good time. The Faculty, having also been invited, were waiting in line to greet us when we marched into the Gymnasium. We had never seen our assembled faculty before, and most of us trembled as we looked at that imposing line. But, all in all, we had a fine time. The Class of ' 27 fitted into the regular college life, quickly joining the different branches of the Welfare Club and giving it hearty support. We were so orderly in the halls, so quiet in Assembly, so studious and serious in the library, and so intelligent in our classes that every visitor would remark upon seeing us, They must be Seniors; they are so refined! My! Our upper classmates didn ' t like that; therefore in October we were adorned with green ties to distinguish us from our colleagues. Time went on. Christinas drew near, and ou r college was filled with the spirit of giving. This spirit was the inspiration of our Welfare Club contribution to needy poor families of Boston. Just before Christmas we gave our Faculty a Christmas party. Yes, we even gave them gifts — rare and costly ones from Shreve, Crump Woolworth ' s. After watching the New Year in, we hurried back to our books. Why? Because with the New Year came mid-years, those awful weeks when we sat up nights trying to brush up and defeat the powers who say, They shall not pass! One day in February many Boston letter-carriers were waylaid with, Have you a long white envelope for my father? — Oh it ' s come! Funny what a lot of trouble a simple piece of white paper with a few little marks on it can make! THE STUDENT PRINTS On April 17, 1925, our class held its dance. Such preparations and excitement! Our first dance at the Teachers College! Eleven forty -five came all too soon. Queer how regular school hours don ' t fly like that! The next big event that year was the Physical Education Demonstration held toward the last of May. Every girl was to support her class in its songs and cheer. Time flew on, and again we began to sit up nights, for finals loomed in the near future. Somehow when they were over, we felt that they weren ' t so bad after all. Finally, toward the end of June, our books having been turned in, and our examinations being over, we bade good-bye to all our friends and hurried away for the summer months. Thus ended the first very successful and happy year of THE CLASS of ' 27. SEPTEMBER, 1925-JUNE, 1926 Vacation was over, playgrounds were given up, and we all came merrily back to school. We were to continue to wear our famous green ties, no longer, however, as a symbol of greenness of Freshmen, but rather of the wisdom of Juniors. After a warm welcome from our faculty and colleagues we were assigned to our special sections. Such dismay when one found one ' s self in a section of which one ' s best chum was not a member! However, we soon became aware of the fact that we were very fortunate in having an opportunity to become acquainted with the girls that we had in our new section. The next ordeal was the election of the class officers, and our good judgment was used when Frances Rattigan was elected president. At the acquaintance party this year we were so well acquainted with the faculty, that we helped to acquaint the freshmen with this ever helpful body. We loved them as much as ever this Christmas, and so again we presented them with our useful and beautiful gifts. Our girls joined many of the clubs of the school and by so doing showed us their hidden abilities. The works of art were many and wonderful. The abilities of the members of the Athletic Club were seen when we watched the games between our class and their competitors. Oh those baseball and squashball games! Here I might say that our Faculty Baseball Players need a word of praise. Remember how they played, girls? That game surely was a memorable event of our junior year. Then came our Mid-years. This year we were well accustomed to exams, and the mid-years were not so feared. We studied, however! If you don ' t believe it, ask Miss Wadsworth. She will tell you how we worried her with our library books. THE STUDENT PRINTS After our examinations many class meetings were held for the purpose of dis- cussing our Class Dance. Committees were elected to carry on the work for the big time. At last the night of the dance arrived, and we as a class voted it the best time ever! We are now looking forward to our Senior Prom. We went forth into the Senior class hoping that we would always live up to the ideals and standards set forth by the school. Now we are Seniors. What a glorious thing to be a Senior ! The first few days were devoted to placing us in our sections. The change caused many groans. How we did love that second-year section ! On Monday, September 21, one half of the class reported at Beacon Street, to be told at what school they would observe, while the better half remained in school and tried to be studious. Will any of us ever forget that first day in the school room? What a thrill when the children began — Miss X., may I do this? How big we felt! After our appointment, we were not through with 15 Beacon Street. Every Tuesday at 9.00 a.m. we had to report there. Then came the nineteenth of Novem- ber, and the sections alternated. Just before we changed our positions, S IV decided to invite the girls of E III to be their guests at a party. Everyone had a most enjoyable time. E III then gave a party, which was a little different from the first one. In fact, it was quite different, for admission was charged. It was a Whist and Bridge Party. Many beautiful prizes were carried home as the result of good playing. The members of the Athletic Club were very ambitious this year. They played against S II, S III, and S V. Everyone who witnessed these games thought them thrilling. Now a good history tells both the good and bad deeds of its subjects, so, of course, as this is a good history, I must tell you of the defeats as well as of the successes of E III. E III defeated S II and S III, but we met our Waterloo at the hands of S V. As the year went on, we had class meetings and discussed yearbooks, pictures, etc. It was decided that Bachrach could make the most out of our looks. There- fore, we unanimously decided on him as our Class Photographer. This volume is the result of our discussion of the yearbook. How do you like it? Theresa C. McCarthy Since we, the Elementary Graduates of Nineteen Twenty-Seven, wisli to make our graduation a commencement in the true sense of the word, we have decided to abolish the conventional class will, which suggests the approach of that grim spectre, Death. In its place, we wish to initiate an endowment policy whereby we, and future graduating classes, may present the school with parting gifts, without the accompanying somberness which a Class Will would seem to demand. We, therefore, wish to bestow the following gifts upon the college, the faculty, and the student body. To the College: 1. A new inscription over the entrance to symbolize that the Normal School of the past has been replaced by The Teachers College of the present and of the future. 2. A system of ventilation for the Assembly Hall which will further our inter- est in Visual Education by enabling us to breathe pure oxygen while enjoying the cinema production. 3. An apple blossom orchard on the Huntington Avenue side of our stately edifice, to enhance its beauty without, and thus effect a satisfactory ratio to the beauties within. 4. Blinkers, colloquially called Dummy Cops, to relieve the heavy traffic at all congested areas of the corridors. To the Faculty: 1. Our heartfelt thanks for assisting us in the solution of our many problems, for sharing sincere friendship with us, and for enduring our numerous crushes. 2. Our sincere sympathy on the loss of a class which occasionally had assign- ments in when they were due, but never before they were due. 3. A promise of a tone modulator for the student body while classes are in session. To the Underclassmen: 1. The inspiring example of grave, dignified Seniors, noted for their profes- sional attitude and unquestioned recognition of faculty decisions. 2. A thirty-six hour day in which to complete assignments. fiO THE STUDENT PRINTS 3. Valet service at all entrances from 9.03 to 9.07, in order that first classes may not be cluttered with excess baggage. 4. Table d ' hote service in the lunch room. 5. Miniature radio sets, to be presented to all successful college applicants, that they may have the consolation of attending school even though they may be detained at home. 6. Bus service to and from the Model School — said buses to have extra shock absorbers to prepare the individual for the inevitable jolts that follow a teaching lesson. 7. Our best wishes for as happy a senior year as we, the Class of Nineteen Twenty-Seven, have had. To Mr. Drake All of his organ music written as pedal solos, that he may work on his Cross Word puzzles and Ask Me Anothers, even while he thrills his audiences. To Miss Brennan: Durable, linen-paged copies of Puss in Boots, that she may distribute them to all the children of the Boston School System. To Miss Dickson: A model school room in which there is movable furniture, an unstilted atmos- phere, and a progressive series of Self Activity Units. (Note: We did not say projects.) To the Psychology Department: A bell and a pedigreed canine, that we may further investigate The Edu- cability of the Emotions. To the Physical Education Department: More apparatus and fewer Dumb-Belles. Since we have had the foresight to supply the few additions which were needed to make The Teachers College a veritable realm of bliss, we expect to see the future graduates taking an indefinite number of post-graduate courses. We request that the Faculty and the future officers of the Student Self-Government Association see that the terms of our bestowal are carried out, but, since we shall be very much alive, and intensely interested in the welfare of our college, we shall return fre- quently to see and enjoy the fruits of our thoughtfulness.
