Q tall anD stalwart group are they anD much renouneD for their great Dignity of bearing anD much also for their learneD manner, being like unto the philosophers of olDen times expressing not the knowleDge they possess. dllfluch are they markeD for prowess in the fielD anD full twice in granD tournament hahe they triumpheD o'er their fellow men, thereby winning unto themselhes the lasting glory of hictors. ZBespite their exalteD state, in contrast are they also prone to jollity anD full many a festibe gathering hahe they helD amongst their banD, the most noteD being a granD masque in which each DiD liken himself unto a little chilDe, both in action anD in Dress. QBf an exploring nature are they too anD trips habe taken to unknown anD stormy wilDernesses anD yet again into great cities in search of information. Qnh if this were not enough, great talent hahe they shewn upon the boarDs anD hahe presenteD for the pleasure of their fellow men a play most remarkable to beholD. Zin truth they are most like the Qreeks of olD. Hjfaithful, QBnwarD. Fourteen T H E C R I T E R I O N l Executive Committee of June Class of 1924. MOTTO: COLORS: Faithful, Onward.

After several unsuccessful attempts to orga- nize had been made, the class finally chose its junior officers in the fall of 1923. Those elected vvere President, Carlton W'eiden- hammerg Vice-President, Estelle McElroyg Secretary, Mary Drewg Treasurer, Paul Hiller: Director of Social Activities, Eleanor Lynch. Miss Lynch resigned later in the year and Miss Flora Saur was elected to hll the position. Miss Haskin was elected class adviser. During the year an innova- tion was introduced in the form of student support of the Community Chest drive. The junior dance was a complete success, and the Junior Prom crowned the social achieve- ments of the season. On the whole, the year was very successful. ' VVhen the Seniors entered school in the fall, they found themselves confronted by the necessity of choosing their Senior offi- cers. The following were elected to lead the class in its last lap of high school activ- ity: George Fraunberger, President g Estelle McElroy, Vice-Presidentg Carroll Meeks, Treasurerg Stacia Danielwicz, Sec- retaryg Josephine Kane, Director of Social Activities. As is the case with senior year, the officers found more work than in the junior year. The senior dance was a com- plete success, as were the Senior Frolic, the hike to Trumbull Caves, and the New York theatre party trip. The Class of '24 has tried to follow out several policies: to choose its committees from widely different groups of seniorsg to make all its social functions general get- togethers where students might get ac- quaintedg and to foster the feeling of student responsibility and self-government in all its undertakings. The Class of '24 could not have accom- plished a fraction of what it has done if it had not been for the faithful and tireless effort of Miss Florence Haskin, the class adviser. Her unfailing guidance and inval- uable suggestion have been primary factors in the success of '24. The class is extreme- ly grateful to Miss Haskin for her earnest co-operation. May all the members of the class of June '24 have the utmost success in the fields they are about to enter and refiect credit and honor to B. H. S. Faithful-Onward.

So long, as its leaflets were falling, VVe carelessly marked its career: But now, with abruptness appalling, It heralds the end of school-years. The years, with their tasks and their plea Their records of dross and of gold Are filled with boundless measures Of joys and achievements untold. XYe sang in the Springtime of flowers, Rejoieed in the Midsummer prime, And gloried in Autumn's rich dowers, But marked not the passing of time. Yet now that school-labors are ended, The crosses and losses we bore, Are merged and happily blended In bright hopes for success evermore. years that are past, we are dreaming Of all you are pledged to obtain, life that is ours, in the seeming, How much of your promise is vain! Oh, Oh, E'en so, as the class-bells are chiming The change from the old to the new, The Master Musician is timing The pulse of the false and the true. And so, as we turn the leaves over, VVe'll learn a new lesson of ageg Then eagerly grasp the bright cover That holds a new calendar page.

The day-june eighth: the hour-eight o'clock: the occasion-the Miss Grant, Miss licers greeted the junior-Senior Reception. Haskin, and the class of- arrivals. Shortly after eight o'clock the first Class Six Orchestra in the history of the school enticed everyone to the auditorium.

After the Finale, the Seniors and their hosts descended to the Gym which was most summery with its Japanese lanterns and cool green imoss. An excellent orchestra soon drew everyone to the floor. At ten o'clock the lunch room was opened. Here the juniors served lemon and green ice cream. Yellow paneled walls, large sprays of green-ribboned forsythia, dim lights, and palms contributed to a Japanese atmosphere. This is one of the first occasions in which the present Senior class showed its original- ity and taste. The sincere welcome, the clever parody, Sixteen, and the carefully planned decorations and color scheme are the outstanding memories of the reception. Roy Dick'vr.r0n. Carroll Illrvks.

DAY THE CRITERION Fifty-seven ig Zlliail ap What a hustle and bustle there was in the homes of the little seniors in the early morn- ing of December eighteenth, as they pre- pared for school! This was Pig Tail Day! At about half past seven the youngsters began to arrive at school clad in rompers, in knee breeches, Eaton collars, and ribbons, and bringing Teddy bears, dollies, rattles, balls, whistles, and balloons. They parked their kiddie- cars and tricycles in the dressing rooms of the gym and went as usual to their classes. From time to time came the wail of a ma-ma doll, or a burst of laughter as some petit enfant went to the board or stood up to recite. At last the noon buzzer sounded. There was a hurrying and scur- rying as the little ones hastened to their rooms to get their wraps. At twelve-thirty the Senior Orchestra, un- der the direction of John Alexander, opened the assembly by playing a few selections, in- cluding Silently Steal Away. After un- successful attempts to obtain music from their neighbors' instruments, the players stole away to their seats. Then Carlton VVeidenhammer announced the features of the program in the Pig Tail Book, pub- lished by Kenneth Moore Sz Co. The vocal talent of the class was displayed in two scenes, Songs for Little Boys and Melod- ies for Merry Maidens. Class mysteries, such as the protest by Stepney farmers to Alice Rock's dance of the veils, were solved by the Puzzled Piccaninnies, Robert Wil- son and Samuel Gillette. Joe Bernstein con- ducted a kindergarten class in which one fragile, but precocious little child, Art Brownstein, recited Roses, Kathryn McClure, as Epaminondas' mother, repri- manded her little Freshman for his stupid mistakes. In Barnum's Daily Dozen Fraunberger gave the elephants, the giratfs, the black cat, and the bear such setting-up exercises as broke the back of the big elephant. VVhen the assembly closed at one-thirty, the little dears hastened outside to have their pictures taken, and then down to the gym, where they were allowed to dance and romp until four o'clock. As only seniors in costumes were allowed in the gym, there was a scramble for Buster Brown collars. At four o'clock the children were formed into two lines for the grand march and judging of costumes. George Fraunberger was awarded first prize for the best boy's cos- tume, and Sally Walsh and Estelle McElroy were awarded first and second prize, res- pectively, for the best girl's costume. After the grand march, a circle was form- ed, in the center of which was a large basket of rare treasures for some prominent mem- bers of the class. There was a hair net for Estelle McElroy, a shark for Herman, an oversized car token for McGovern, a trum- pet for Alexander, an umbrella for Stacia Danielwicz, a carpenter tool-kit for Shea, a Dodge Car for Dick Dunn. lncidentally all gifts were VVoo1worth's best. When the merriment caused by the pre- sentations had subsided, the Pig-Tailers dis- persed, some to get their kiddie cars and tricycles and ride home, others to slip home by dark side streets, trying to avoid the amused gaze of Bridgeporters who knew not that this was Pig Tail Day.

The morning of Wash- ington's Birthday dawned with a slight snow- fall, but the Seniors knew that nothing less than a blizzard, an earthquake, or a tidal wave could prevent the ten-mile hike to Trumbull Caves. Leaving Bethany Chapel at 10:15, our half-frozen group, between thirty and forty strong, with Miss Haskin, Mrs. Rice, Mr. Robins and Mr. Brunt as chaperones, slipped and floundered over the snowy ruts. We had a hard time keeping the whole bunch together, as some folks seemed to have seven league boots. We Finally reached the caves, at 12 o'clock. We climbed about, ex- ploring crevices and sliding down rocks. VVe devoured chicken, ham sandwiches, and cookies, and drank hot coffee from Eleanor Harris's little tin pail. VVith three camp- hres there was plenty of room for wet moc- casins to steam and A1exander's leather gloves to toast. At two o'clock we turned homeward. When we came to the top of a miniature precipice, we were forced, teachers and all, to slide down a slim, slippery tree. After crossing an icy log over a river and getting our feet slightly damp, we reached the rail- road tracks. Here we discovered some ex- pert and perhaps experienced rail walkers among the group. At Trumbull station we noticed the hill dotted with sleds. Borrow- ing several, we spent some time sliding. Then we were oFf again, some by way of the Beardsley Park Road, some by the road we had come before. We arrived home about 5:30 o'clock, cold and wet, but with nndampened spirits. I Roy Dickwsorz.

The Senior Frolic was just what the name suggests-lots of fun and pep and a good time for all who were there. Much credit is due to the girls in charge of the affair and to Miss Haskin, the class adviser. The orchestra, composed of john Alex- ander, Vincent Odrich, Charles DeWolfe, Harold Connelly, and Edward Buckingham, would have made Paul Whiteiiiaii look to his laurels if he could have heard them. Dancing was enjoyed until the slow mo- tion pantomine, The Modern Proposal, was presented, showing the efforts of the hero, Douglas Lockhart, to rescue his lovely lady, Gertrude Loth, from the wiles of the villain, Bert Rozene, while Alice Kohler played the part of the mischievous little sister. Kathryn McClure may well be proud of the sketch she coached. Xext on the program was a school-room skit called George Wasliiiigton and the Cherry Tree. The teachers surely had their hands full with George Vlfashington-CGeorge Fraunbergerj and his chums, Tom Jeffer- son-CDonald Bairdj, Henry Ford-CDick Kneelandj, Henry Clay-CFrank McGuireD and 'tDan Boone-CCharles Crosbyj. The teaching was done in good old B. H. S. style, but it is doubtful if scholars ever were quite so naughty as Crosby. The in- structors of this unruly class were, indeed funny, especially Clara Josephson, as Miss Ima Ford, and Kathryn McClure, as Miss Polygon. The teacher of drawing, Milton Decker, as Mr. Pallette, proved to be very cleverg John Alexander, as Mr. Bunsen Burnit and Abe Bowman, as Mr. Fuzzle- worth, helped to make the play a success. When Miss Ford's history class was over and recess came, the boys showed their skill in gymnasium stunts. George, and Tom Jefferson, showed special prowess as tumb- lers and did many thrilling stunts. After a ten minute recess, studies were again re- sumed, In desperation because every tutor had based his instructions on the cherry tree Ca gymnasium rope with a bunch of cherries from a lady's hatl, George seized a hatchet Can Indian clubj from the property man, Edward Kingree, and furiously hacked down the offending tree. Unexpectedly his stern father, Kenneth Moore, appeared on the scene and promptly marched George off to Room 117. The audience was left to imagine what happened afterwards. Dancing followed with various novelties, such as The Leap Year Dance, which caused a good deal of fun. At seven sharp, after a loud roll of the drum, we were in- vited to the lunchroom, where we banqueted on ham souffle, sandwiches, cakes, and cocoa, served under the supervision of Elizabeth Chapin and her workers. After supper we were entertained with humorous after-dinner speeches by Edward Kingree, Alice Kohler, Clara Iosephson, and Josephine Kane. Carlton VVeidenhammer appeared very much at ease as toastmaster. The affair was over by eight, and every one agreed that the party would be remem- bered as one of the merriest of the year- The Senior Frolic of 1924.

Time passed quickly. A Hudson River gale swept us along Forty Second Street from the Grand Central to the Public Library. Here we saw interesting old manuscripts, such as Caxton's edition of Chaucer's Prologue. After the visit to the library the groups separated: Mr. Brunt's group going to the Museum of Natural History, where Fraun- berger imagined he could tilt a nicely bal- anced rock from its pedestalg the remaining groups taking busses to the Metropolitan Museum of Art, with the exception of Miss Barske's group. The students were interest- ed in the statuary, tapestries, armour, pot- tery, Egyptian niuniniies, and paintings. The inner man began to indicate the time. All the groups niet at Drake's promptly at 12:15 in the special reservation for our seniors. The high records in the bun-eat- ing contest were made by Miss Haskin, Elinor Harris, Mr. Brunt and C. Meeks. Again the groups went their own ways. Miss Haskin's and Miss Lawlor's groups in- sisted upon standing on a windy corner and gazing longingly at the top of the Wool- worth Tower. Miss Becker's group took a Riverside Bus toi see the Pacific Fleet, and learned the historic fact that the Soldiers' and Sailors' Monument -is not Grant's Tomb. It was only too short a time between lunch and the matinee. Miss Haskin's, Miss Law- lor's, and Miss Becker's seniors went to see Merry VVives of C1othamg Mr. Brunt's to The Pottersf' Miss Barske's to The Miraclef' and Miss Grant's to Antony and Cleopatra. After the matinee, Miss Becker's group took trains to the Russian Quarters, where they bargained with street vendors. The group also visited the brass shops, where a young lady mistook a nut cracker for a wrench. Miss Grant's, Miss Haskins, Miss Lawlor's and Mr. Brunt's groups had their supper at the K. P. Tea Room, at Colum- bia, where they ordered a quick lunch which proved to be a five course dinner of waits, toast, tea, service, and checks. Miss Becker's group ate at the Automat while Miss Barske's dined at Huyler's before going to the Capital Theatre. Eight-ten, the time for leaving the great city was drawing near. But in spite of Mr. Brunt's scouting ability and speed in the theatre-crowded mazes of the Shuttle, only Miss Barske's and Miss Becker's seniors caught the train. The others were too jubilant to regret missing the train, as this was the ti111e to see Broadway at night. The Seniors in New York were gazing at the Covered Wagon lights, studying spring fashions in the Fifth Avenue windows, and getting a glimpse of the palatial Commodore Hotel lobby, while the Seniors on the train were being enter- tained by Kenneth Moore's lecture on Goat Glands. While the Seniors in New York were lamenting that the VVrigleys on XVrig- ley's sign were not doing their usual set- ting-up exercises, the Hilltoppers on the train were disappointed because the rest were not there to enjoy the snake dance.. The two hours between the two train times did not seem long, and the last of the Seniors left Broadway. The eleven o'clock train pulled into Bridgeport xx ith the belated travelers, who were welcomed by sleepy fathers. Mary Dion. xi. KJ Zi' .--N sixty-four THE CRIQERION - 1 1924 OLYMPICS.

It has been an exceptionally prosperous year financially. The paper has been indeed privileged in having' an aston- ishingly good set of business managers. Roth. Goldberger, and Baird, who haveiheld the position at intervals throughout the year, are to be congratulated on their splendid effort. Baird. who started the year as business man- ager, was forced to resign due to lack of time, Roth we lost by graduation in Feb- ruary: Goldberg finished the year. This year the paper was printed by a different printer who had more time-saving machinery and a greater capacity, and consequently the paper was put out in much less time than formerly. VVhen the board met last fall, conditions were different from what they had been in former years. The board, on the whole, was composed of reporters who had had little or no experience in the newspaper game. A new faculty adviser was at the helm of the publication. Naturally enough, it was a little hard to get things running smoothly. Some skeptics, as usual, prophesied an unsuccess- ful year. The adviser, Miss Fairbanks, proved equal to the task of adjusting things satisfactorily. She stepped in, and, respected by the board, she accomplished wonders with the green material. Her guiding influence and more than helpful suggestions have been powerful factors in the success of the pub- The VVhat a strange place R. H. S. would seem if there were 11ot ways and means of bet- tering one's talents! For nearly every talent there is some club or organization where that special branch of work is being developed and constantly improved. 'tThe Pen has become useful because it helps the literary student to see not only his own style of story printed, but that of his fellow student. A literary magazine in a secondary school is a fine thing because it encourages the ambitions of live students in- interested in this type of work. This year The Pen has been more warmly welcomed than ever before. There are many reasons for this reception. In the first place the board has been enlarged so that each member may do justice to his work. There are two main divisions to the board: the literary and the business boards. To the literary board with the associate and ex- lication. Her enthusiasm is really contagious. A primary factor that has contributed to the success of the Criterionl' has been the whole-hearted and generous support of the student body. Without this spirited backing, the paper could do nothing. We have ap- preciated immensely the student support. we earnestly hope that the students will support next year's board as well as it has ours. Those in charge take this opportunity to thank each and every member of the board for his work this year. Though inexperi- enced at first, the group has blossomed out into a very capable reporting staff, and it would be hard to find such loyalty and spirit anywhere as has been displayed by the board this year. Much credit is due this corps of workers. The Criterion has aimed to be, during its existence, a medium through which the students might become better acquainted with their school, its activities, and its inter- ests. Whether we have accomplished our object satisfactorily, or not, rests with the individual. We do not profess to be per- fect. All cannot be pleased. We have done our best and that is all one can do. At this time when the seniors are to leave B. H. we want to extend wishes for the greatest success to all members of the Class of 'Z-1. May we all hold a place in our hearts for dear old B. H, S.l Crwltou MfYCldCIl1lUIllJIIN'. 35m change editors falls the task of selecting material that will please all types of students. The business board takes care of all busi- ness necessary to run the paper. Next is the careful choice of material. The mem- bers read and re-read the stories handed in to them. They try to take the most inter- esting and best written of the entire lot. If a story is well written, it will hold the in- terest of nearly every individual. There are so many reasons for the success of The Pen this year that it would be too arduous a task to relate them all. It is the first time in the history of the magazine that every single copy has been sold by the close of the day of publication. Many students were disappointed at 11ot being able to secure a copy. Certainly this demand speaks volumes and indicates that the efforts of the board have been rewarded by the interest of the students. T H E C RIT E R I O N Seventy-one 'F . NI cm .-4 N5 N cn ,-4 7 ,..

VVe had a state champion- ship team and the first Bridgeport High team to complete its schedule without a de- feat-something never before accomplished. The United Workers Club of New Haven was our First opponent. This team, al- though possessing a very fine record, was turned back after a close, exciting game. Hartford was the llCXl opponent, but the team, running close to the form displayed in the first game, defeated their conquerors of 1922. The next game proved the only dis- appointment to the followers of the Red and Black team. Although outclassed, Torring- ton, with the aid of Bridgeport's fumbles and misplays, succeeded in tying the Hilltop team. The New York High School of Commerce game was a revelation to the High School cohorts. The Commerce team was rated highly in New York scholastic football cir- cles, but the Bridgeporters rolled up a very impressive score. The team having found its stride, easily disposed of the Crosby and Xew Haven Commercial High teams. Then came the hardest test for the team! the Naugatuck game. One of the best exhi- bitions of high school football ever witnessed in the state was displayed in this game. The team showed its championship qualities by holding the Naugatuck team from tying the score when only three scant yards separated the Naugatuck team from their goal line. Stamford was the only obstacle in the way of Bridgeport's championship. The first game at Bridgeport was played before a ca- pacity crowd. The day was ideal and the game was all that it was expected to be. Bridgeport finally triumphed. The second game at Stamford was played in a sea of mud in the face of a biting sleet storm. Once more the Bridgeport team. showing its cham- pionship calibre, defeated the Stamford boys for the second time. The championship was clinched and the team's goal attained-an undefeated season. Full credit must go to Mr. Reilly for his work in molding this combination of brain and brawn into a football unit, and for his wonderful spirit which enabled the team to carry on in the face of many difficulties.

VVith such note- worthy stars as Colway, VVhelan Meyer, Cremins, Flynn, and Gilman to rely upon, the outlook before the season started was indeed good, but after barely winning over Congress in the opening game, the team dropped six straight games before winning a single one. Hurt by the public's and press's constant criticism, the team showed a reversal of form in mid-season and journeyed to VVater- bury and played VX'ilby High School. cham- pions of Connecticut, off their feet for thirty-eight minutes of play, leading all through the game, only to lose the game by one point margin 17-16. In answer to several critics who claimed the team played over their heads, our boys came back and shut the New Haven Com- mercials out without giving them a single basket. . Continuing a Fine streak of basketball our boys gave Crosby the surprise of their lives upon their visit here. Playing the Blue and VVhite tossers to a standstill, the score at the end of this game was 14-14. In the allotted Five minutes over time period Crosby could not penetrate the locals defense: so another period was played. Referee Nanchy. then called a foul on Flynn and the hopes of a Park City Snake dance vanished to the tune of 15-14. Our boys won over the much talked-of Trade School, whose team they defeated after playing a hard fought game in Hartford the night before.

The first outdoor practice was held early in April after two hard weeks of indoor work squad was on hand to at the first outdoor in the gym. A large meet Coach Reilly work, and after a few weeks, a well balanced field in daily practice. The squad consisted of about twenty-tive fellows who were chosen because, as Coach Reilly said, they had had experience and knew the game from A to Z. Those on the squad included Captain Paddy Laveryg Manager Tom Buckley, Pitchers, Clarke, Rumage, Kelman, and Baker, First base, Helenza and Clearyg Second base, Cremins, Harrigan, and Banvilleg Third base, Hines 'and Reichel, Short stop, Tickeyg Catchers, Chaiklen and Maher, Outfielders, Roper, Strauss, Langan, Saffo, and Schiller. A schedule of twentyone games was arranged by Manager Tom Buckley and in- cluded all the principal schools in Connec- ticut. New rivals appeared on the schedule when Bulkeley High of New London was signed for a game. and a two game series with Stamford. The schedule also calls for a game with St. Thomas Seminary of Hart- ford and the team of Sing Sing Prison. This game is scheduled for June 14, and is expected to cause much interest among the student body. Baseball Schedule 1924.

TENNI The Tennis Team of '24 has a bright out- look for the coming season. It has several of the letter 111en of last year's team, in- cluding Jones, Lockhart, Meyer, and VVeid- enhammer. To back up these veterans are several oncoming aspirants for tennis fame: namely, Lindquist, Haulfman, Benedict, and many others. The team is to be composed of four men who will never be sure of their places be- cause of the round robin that is being played continually. In this way a man can challenge any two above him and thus, if he is able, work himself up to a place on the team. There has been a new policy of system- atic practice adopted this year and it is be- ing carried out to the letter under the guid- ance and coaching of J. M. Ricker, faculty adviser. Manager Decker has prepared a very dif- ficult schedule with several unique features. The most important of these is the biggest competition of the year with the Yale ln- S TEAM terscholastics. All the leading preparatory high schools are entered. There will be a four man team sent and our boys are ex- pected to uphold the Red and Black with honors under the leadership of Captain Jones. The games with the Faculty, with Stamford, and with Mt. Vernon are the other new ones on the list. The schedule follows: May 10, Saturday-Faculty at Bridgeport. May 14, VVednesday-Open. May 17, Saturday-Yale Interscholastics at New Haven. May 21, VVednesday-Yale Frosh at New Haven. May 23 Friday-Milford at Milford. May 27 Tuesday-Stamford at Bridgeport.

HEUUUZI' mam NVe will not be defeated -This is the motto of determination which helped Coach Reilly's football team to go through their season unmarred by defeat. This is the motto which led the Wonder Team of B. H. S. through a very eventful season and aided them in securing the long desired State Championship. However, it is not this motto alone which lead the group to success but the unceasing energy, loyalty, clean play, and team work of the girls which made them one of the most talked of teams in and out of the state. Too great an amount of credit cannot be given to Coach Helen Lockwood, who through her untiring efforts and sterling personal characteristics succeeded in weld- ing together a team not only of excellent playing prowess but of ideals as fine men- tally, morally, and socially as well as physi- cally. As the leader of the team, the pivot of all play, we find Captain Mary Drew. Mary certainly has set some fine examples for her team and besides being an excellent basket- ball player, she has shown up the qualities of a real leader. Truly we ind that Florence Outhouse stands out for her quick playing. She has been appreciated for her fair play and cited by all the girls as the one best fitted to take the reins as next year's Captain. Here's luck to you, Toots. Agnes VVatters, the shooting star of the team, is the next girl we come to. Agnes' ability to shoot from other angles as well as the ideal spot, her aggressive spirit, as well as her alertness has given her the right to claim the honor of being recognized as the highest point scorer of the team. VVith Agnes we have her team mate, Mildred XVaters, who by her keen eye and steady playing has really proved her worth as a forward. Milly also showed up as jump- ing center in some of the games. Mary Roach, our regular guard. by her alertness and speed has shown what a Fine guard she is, for it was greatly due to Mary that our opponent's scores were kept so low. To Mary comes the very high honor of being the player having committed the least number of fouls throughout the season. Mary always guarded the best forwards on the opposing teams and out of fifteen games she had but six fouls against her record. Playing the position of guard with Mary Roach, we find Stacia Danielwicz and Eleanor Lynch. Their alertness and ability to stick to their opponent so as to prevent her from making points, were the out- standing characteristies of their play. Al- though Stacia graduates in June we still have Eleanor with us and hope her next year's season will be as successful as this year's. Next we come to Ruth Fedor. Ruth has been the UFind of the season and although this is her first year of basketball she played in several of the big games and has easily proved her worth. Ruth will be with us next year and we are counting on her as one of the veteran players. Mae XVilsca, our sub. forward since Feb- ruary, has all the promising possibilities of a fine player. Mae is only a Sophomore and if she keeps up the-good work of this year. there is no doubt as to her success in the future. Florence Evans and Agnes Ciresi grad- uated in February. It was a loss to the team to lose Floss and Agnes for both girls had proved their ability as basketball players and although they were unable to continue the whole season with the team, they deserve a great deal of credit for the honor they helped to bring to the school while they played. Next year Catherine Casey is to be the Girls' Basketball Manager. Bridgeport played fifteen games and won all Hfteeii The scores tell the story of the game the Hilltop lassies played this year. B. H.

Girls' ilntmlass Qtbletins This year a special drive has been made to interest the girls of the school in such sports as soccer, volleyball, basketball, indoor-track, and tennis. Early in September, a call was issued for candidates to form a soccer team. An in- teresting series of games followed between the Scarlet Tanagers and the Green Backs. At the same time that soccer was calling the girls out of doors, volleyball was keeping the gym ringing with cheers and enthusiasm. The girls, some one hundred in number, were divided into three groups-A. M. players. P. M. players, and beginners. The first game was won easily by the P. M. girls. the second match was a close fight ending victoriously for the A. M. team and the deciding game after many ties gave the honor of the day to the A. M. girls captained by Ruth Fedor. Then came basketball and two hundred girls wanting to play, eager to be on the team. A tournament was started embrac- ing 16 teams. Each team had a game scheduled for every week. VVith the coming of the new semester a defnite group was picked to represent each class and the championship of the school was at stake. The privilege of being acknowledged as the best team was won by the Sophomores who were captained by Monica Crehan. After basketball came the call for candi- dates for the track meet. This has been for years The Event in which every girl in the school can show herself to be a good sport. But-will you ever forget how Mr. Moore forgot that there was a cup to be given to the Senior Track Captain, Mary Drew, that day in the assembly! I fell that a start has been made. Here's to the continuation of interclass athletics on a still larger scale next year. Helm Lockwood. .g4v ' THE Cl ITERION L lt 11 M T5 5 1. ff My ,, V W .

S. L. Some of the aims of the Girls' Student League concerning Social Service are: To promote friendship and comradeship among the girls of the Bridgeport High School, to stimulate them to earnest effort in social service, and to lead them to share with the community outside the school the advan- tages of their opportunity in education. According to custom, many poor families of the city at Thanksgiving were supplied with large baskets of food containing com- plete dinners. The work was very success- ful this year. :Xt Christmas, articles of warm clothing were given to Miss Alice Chapman of the C. O. S. for distribution. VVe have a group of girls organized under the name of the Cheering Squad. These girls have entertained at the Hospital with their musical selections and recitations. The .-Xnti-Blues Committee also comes under Social Service. This committee has tried to make life more interesting for those who are not able to attend school for some reason or other. Social Service is a big, open field. It has been the aim of its different committees to give service not only to the people outside of the school that need it, but also to its own girls. Stacia Dalziclzvics. G. S. L. Social Activities. The Student League has done much to- wards the Social life of the school. On Oc- tober IS, it entertained the freshmen with a party which gave them not only a good time. but also an opportunity to become acquainted with the other students. The G. S. L. dance on February 15, was one of the most successful ever given in high school. A great deal of new talent was un- covered through the fine posters and effec- tive decorations. VVe received valuable as- sistance from the boys and had a large at- tendance of the parents at the dance. Helm Cullizzun. The management of Reads department store on April 22 by all the girls of B. H. S. was one of the biggest projects in the his- tory of the Girls' Student League. Through the courtesy of the D. M. Read Company and the supervision of Miss Margaret Y. Kiely and several of the experienced em- ployees of the store, the girls were afforded an excellent opportunity to take part in the various fields of department store work, in- cluding decorating of windows and store, editing the store paper, advertising in the newspapers, selling goods in every de- partment, sketching signs and posters. serving in the tea room, and managing the fashion show. The chairman of the various committees in charge consisted of Jessie Larson, general chairman, Henrietta Sterling, store decora- tions, Elizabeth McDermott, salesmanship, Josephine Kane, tea room, Celia Lederer, office work, Katherine McGovern, music for the tea room and fashion showg Isabel Mc- Donald and Helen Cullinan, advertisingg Evelyn Eagan, editor of store paper, and Jessie Larson, store decorations. The results derived from this project were excellent. It not only gave the girls a little experience in the business world for women, but it brought about a valuable disclosure of various abilities and talents among them in the different departments of the work. Also, this was the first time that the public was given an opportunity to see what our girls can actually accomplish. Belle JI. Rapaport. lt lHl:.

End' that High much original- ity, dramatic ability, and initiative as was evidenced in the play productions. After the assembly, they besieged the stage and en- thusiastically demanded to know how we did it? The Players' Club of the Bridgeport High School for some time has had the reputa- tion of being an unusual organization, one that requires real dramatic ability and know- ledge of stage-craft as qualifications for membership. just to recall the productions which have been presented within the past few years gives sufficient evidence of the type of drama which the Club sponsors. Its aim is to give the best plays obtainable and to present them in the most finished manner. Upon this policy rests the success of the Players' Club. It has been the custom to present annually, on three different occasions, a Senior Play, whose cast is chosen from the senior mem- bers of the Players' Club, a musical comedy, under the combined auspices of the musical and dramatic departments, and a produc- tion that is essentially a Players' Club program. Some of the full length plays that have thus far been presented are- The House Next Door, The Passing of the Third Floor Back, Little VVomen, Clar- ence, Seventeen, and the Senior Play of 1924, 'tlceboundfl A list of the shorter plays includes: A Maker of Dreams, Neverthe- less, Maid of France, Neighbors, Hun- ger, The Man Who Married A Dumb Wife, and a group of Irish plays- VVork- house Wards, Riders To the Sea, and Spreading the News. Two of the com- mendable musical comedies which were ably presented are: The Hermit of Hawaii and The Lass of Limerick Town. Many former members of the Players Club have carried on their interest in drama as active leaders in the Bridgeport Little Theatre League. Some have even risen to prominence of the stage world. CR I 'I' ERION layers Iuh Thus the study and presentation of good modern drama in B. H. S. has been proved worthwhile. Realizing this, the English de- partment of the school introduced into English 7 a course in Modern One Act Plays. The various English 7 teachers emphasized the study of these plays in dif- ferent ways. They were read in class. studied, analyzed, and often acted out in the class room. Senior students have shown unusual interest in the course and have proved it by designing and making model sets for the plays or by working out plans for lighting or other production problems. One teacher gave the members of her class the choice of acting in a play, directing a play, writing a play or making a model set. The few plays in the text book served as an incentive for further reading, and, as a result, many students read and enjoyed good drama, with which, otherwise, they might never have become acquainted. Miss Curtiss, head of the English depart- ment, when asked the reason why she had introduced the study of modern plays into English 7, stated that she knew the plays would be enjoyed, that they would do much to interest students in high grade modern literature of all types, and would give to the students a familiarity with the best living playwrights and actors. As an outgrowth of the interest shown throughout the English classes, combined with the success of the splendid produc- tions given to the school by the Players Club, the officers of the Club and their director, Mrs. Pryor, met and discussed the possibility of carrying on a Play Writilig and Producing Contest among the students. After consultation Miss Curtiss and the other English 7 teachers, who heartily approved of the idea, such a contest was announced to the entire school. The following simple rules were issued for the writing of the plays: 1. The play must be in one act, although it may have more than one scene. 2. The same setting must be used throughout. 3. The play must be not less than twenty minutes or more than one hour in duration. 4. The author must sign it with an as- sumed name, his real name in a sealed THE CR envelop to be attached to the manu- script. A time was set for the meeting of all those interested in the play writing, at which time a talk was given by Mrs. Pryor on The Technique of the One Act Play, with helpful hints as to theme, character, de- velopment and line-writing. Questions were asked and answered and enthusiasm waxed high. Money prizes were to be awarded to the three best plays in literary merit, and for the one of these most successfully produced, a theatre party was promised to its entire production staff. Despite the rather short time allowed for the writing of the plays as well as the intervening of the semester ex- aminations, thirty-five plays were submitted to the contest, all of which showed con- siderable knowledge and understanding of drama technique and at least half of which number possessed more or less real merit. At the appointed time, the judges, Mrs. Sanford Stoddard, Miss Julia Farnam, and Dr. Edgar- W. Burrill, announced the win- ning plays. To repeat their foreword, so many of the plays were commendable, that, after much deliberation and with the con- sent of the Players' Club officers, it was decided to award four prizes instead of three, with honorable mention to three others. Ties That Bind, by Jessie Larsen was awarded the hrst prize of S155 Orders, by Katrina Hinks, the second prize of S103 The Two Suitors, by Louis Weinsteiii, the third prize of S83 and Little Lord of Engle- holm, the fourth prize of 5155. The plays given honorable mention were: Chappy, by Kenneth Moore, A Flapper At Court, by Elinor Harris, and Strange Bedfellows, by Rachel Baumrind: each of these last mentioned having been chosen a winner by one of the judges. Preparations were immediately begun for the production of the four prize plays, a student director being appointed for each play. Each director chose his or her own group of assistants, consisting of actors, scene designer, stage manager, and assist- ants, properties, lighting and costume com- mitees. The actors for each play were chosen by try-outs open to the entire school. The others of the stage staff were chosen by application of those interested, or appointment by the play's director. A mem- ber of the faculty was chosen by each group to act as its adviser, Mrs. Pryor acting as general adviser for the whole production, I T E R I O N Ninety-three and giving each group only two rehearsals. A budget of expenses was made out by each director and presented for approval to the Business and Finance Committee, which was appointed to take care of the business man- agement of the production. All expenses were assumed by the Players Club. In all, over one hundred students co- operated to make the contest a success. The problems of snow storms, wind machines, Seventeenth Century atmospheres, and Coats of Armor: Civil War uniforms, Confederate Flage and illusiye pickaninniesg Alabama cabins, coons and dialects: provincial New England, with its Ladies' aids and trained poultry: irresponsible and temperamental actors: adlicted directors: the building and painting of stage sets or the making over of old ones: sunsets, lirelights, double sockets and extension wires: noon and seventh period classes, to say nothing of unsym- pathetic teachers 3-all these problems were met and conquered in a manner most com- mendable -to such a large co-operating group. This splendid working together, with a single purpose,-the success of the con- test and the joy of the working,-was prob- ably the most satisfying and truly valuable part of the contest. On March twentieth the First presentation of the prize plays was given. It was, in a way, a final dress rehearsal before the stud- ents, in preparation for the judging of the plays on the following evening, March twenty-first. The Judges of the production contest were Mrs. Sanford Stoddard, Miss Julia Farnam and Dr. J. F. Bresnahan. The winners were decided on a basis of l00'Zng 2570 for acting, 2570 for directing, 1570 for setting, 1570 for properties and costumes, 1062 for lightning, and IOW for any special feature well pre- sented. According to Dr. Bresnahan, the last 1072 had a great deal to do with the linal decision. The coveted production prize went to Little Lord of Engleholm, with Ties That Bind, a close second. The following week these two plays were presented for our Columbia University visitors, and, upon invitation of the Little Theatre League, the prize production play, Little Lord of Engleholmu was given at the Little Theatre as a part of the regular bill, where it was received with much favorable comment and enthusiasm.

Since the whole cast had had dramatic ex- perience, the play was exceptionally well acted. Estelle McElroy, who took the part of Jane Crosby, the leading lady in the play. took the leading woman's part in The Little Lord of Engleholmf' the play which won the production prize in the recent Prize Play Contest. Kenneth Moore, who took the role of Ben Jordan, the hero of lcebound, was one of the leading characters in The Little Lord of Engleholmf' and has done credit- able work in the Little Theatre League of which he is a member. Harold Connelly as Henry Jordan was the Danish officer in The Little Lord of Engle- holmf' He gave a very good portrayal of a difficult part. Clara Josephson, playing the part of Henry Jordan's wife, was the one who made a great comedy hit as the colored mammy in Orders, another of the Prize Plays. She played her part in Icebound with as much talent as in the former play. Harold Dowdney, who played the part of Orin, was the hero in the Swedish Prize Play. His portrayal of this part on the last Little Theatre League bill was commented upon as one of the best bits of acting seen at the Little Theatre this year. Jessie Larson, the author of Ties That Bind, which won the first author's prize in the Prize Play Contest, played the part of Ella Jordan with much talent. Rose Levin, who took the part of Sadie Fellows, was Mrs. Gumble, the leading lady in Ties That Bind. Ruth MacDowel1 took the part of Nettie Jordan, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs, Henry Jordan. She is well known in Black Rock circles for her participation in plays in that section of the city. Loring Litchfield, who played the role of Judge Bradford, is the one who designed the settings for two of the original Prize Plays. Merril Shepherd, who was such a scream as Miss Tattle in Ties That Bind, played the part of Hannah in Icebound. She con- tinued her success in the former play with her acting of this role. Fred Taylor took the part of Doctor Cur- tis. He will be remembered as Uncle Ben, the old colored servant in Orders. George Burns, who was the Sheriff, Jim Jay, took a prominent part in the Prize Play, t'The Two Suitorsf' Much of the success of the play was due to the efforts of Mrs. Sara Sherman Pryor. She gave many hours of her time to the dif- ficult task of coaching the castg consequently the play was one of the best ever produced by the High School. This year for the first time the settings were made entirely by students. Under the able direction of Miss Alma K. Becker, a committee consisting of Charles Pitt, Stage manager, Fred Weindorf, John Alexander, David Engleman, Mellor Jones, Norman Devlin, Carl Peterson, Thomas Connelly, Sidney Beck, Ernest Braun and William Pollit accomplished much more than has ever been done before. Several production rehearsals for the stage crew alone were held, and as a result, the shifting of the scenes was greatly facilitated. Another important feature of the produc- tion, the business end, was undertaken by the Business and Finance Committee of the Players' Club. This consisted of Carroll Meeks, chairman, Roy Dickerson, Maurice Bakunin, Rockwell Clark, Frank Panuzio. Gareth Speer, Alfred Gilman, and Clifton Peck. The Property Committee consisted of Robert Wilson, chairman: John Flanagan, Dorothy Jones, and Edith Nelson. Ninety-eight T H E C R I T li R I O N THE FOOTI.IGl'lT CLUB. Few afternoon clubs functioning in B. H. S. have had greater success than the Footlight Club. Its chief aim is to encourage drama- tic talent in the afternoon session in order to prepare students for the Players' Club of the morning session. In order to join the club a tryout must be submitted and accepted. In February, the club held a fifteen min- ute assembly to increase its membership. The entire student body responded, making a membership of seventysfive so that all tryouts had to be closed. The program consisted of: Monologue, Helen Frye Highly Colored Sketch, Marion VVhipple. Rose Addenbrooke Lncile Gets Ready for a Dance. Ida Goodruff An Old Maid. Anna Fox, Mildred VValler Again at another assembly given by the Musical Club, the Footlight Club gave two numbers which met with great success. Program: Below Stairs, Anna Fox, Marion XYhipple Mrs. Casty Takes a Car Ride, Mildred Ketcham Under the direction of Miss Lyon, our adviser. the club is now planning a long assembly, The success of the club this year has been due to the support of the students and the nntiring work of Miss I.yon and its officers.

Musical Club was first organized this year, it has already be- come one of the most important and prob- ably the best attended organization in the school. It has been the object of the organizers of the club to promote greater interest and a higher appreciation of classical music among the students of this school. The highest achievement of the A. M. Musical Club this year, was the presentation of an excellent program in an assembly on Thursday, May 8, in celebration of National Music Week. The program, which not only included the most talented members of the club itself but members representing other musical institutions, was as follows: Program l. Selection .... High School Orchestra 2. Piano Solo .. ....... William Davenport 3. Vocal Solo .. .... Mrs. Clayton Booth .iHl.ilTf'l The P. M. Musical Club of 1924 closes its term of activities this year with a feeling that it has succeeded very well in the under- taking and executing of its chief duty in providing music lovers of the school with an organization through which they might hear and appreciate good music. When the call for membership was issued at the beginning of the term, students responded in great numbers, and chose the following as their officers-President, Anna Odrichg Vice- president, Julia Risi, Secretary, Margaret Clark, Treasurer, Louise Loewingerg Chair- of VVednesday Afternoon Musical Club, accompanied by Miss Belle Blackstone. 4.

Mr. Alvin C. Breul has club and all its activties year. supervised the throughout the Belle .ll. Rtifmfforf, PWS. usical Iuh man of Program Committee, Florence Spinelli. . The club held a meeting every week and after the business was completed, the tal- ented members of the club entertained. In conjunction with these programs, two con- certs were presented in the assembly. The efforts of the members of the club are appreciated, as well as those of the teachers who aided. It is hoped that the enthusiasm of the club will continue in the future. .fflillil Odriclz, Pres. bearing Qquah During the Christmas vacation last year a number of the girls of the P. M. Musical Club offered their services in an endeavor to bring cheer to the inmates of the hospi- tals and charitable institutions in the city. The girls sang Christmas songs and some rendered solos. Ma.ny of the patients who had been in the hospital for months, and in some cases years, broke down in tears when they heard the music. The joyful attitude manifested by the sick was an inspiration to the girls. and it resulted in the organization of an entire- ly new club called the Cheering Squad. The following officers were elected: Margueritte Griffin, president, Julia Risi, secretary and treasurerg Dorothy XN'heeler, chairman of the program committee. Dean Margaret Kiely was chosen for the adviser. The motto selected is f'Let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works. During. the Easter vacation the club be- came active, and the group entered the hos- pitals and charitable institutions. Songs were sung by a chorus, and individuals gave solos and humorous recitations. VVe feel well paid for our efforts for we know we have brought cheer to many. A .'lI111'y11rr'if1' Ciriffin, l'rv.r. Hundred Six T H E C R I T E R 1 O N T H E C R I T E R I O N Hundred Seven y The sharing ftlluh To the officers and active members of the Debating Club, much credit is due for their efforts to keep it one of the live organiza- tions of the school. Rudolph Peterson, the president during the first semester, and Louis Stein, president during the second semester, and their respective groups of of- hcers, did all in their power to maintain the Debating Club, and the fact that they did not succeed entirely is due rather to the whole school's lack of interest than to theirs. However, much interesting and valuable work has been accomplished this past year. First of all comes the Triangular Debate with Hartford and New Haven. The teams were as follows: affirmative, Carrol Meeks, Wil- liam Davenport, Gareth Speer, and Joseph Ostergren, alternate: negative, Louis Stein, W'alter Schwartz, Philip Keller, and John Flanagan, alternate. The subject debated was: Resolved, That the Best Interests of New England VVill Be Served by an Cnihed Ownership and Operation of Its Railroads. Though they lost both debates, nevertheless, they gained a great deal of experience from them. Both the prepared speeches and debates by different members not only provided prac- tice and training in speech work, but also kept the Club acquainted with current events. The Parliamentary Drills conducted by various members were a source of enter- tainment as well as of training in that fundamental of all societies, Parliamentary Law. Another part of the program was the Salesmanship Talks. These were given by members of the Club posing as salesmen try- ing to sell their products. They brought out the latent possibilities of the students along this line and also enlightened the Club on the various features of many of our pro- ducts. So we might say that the work of the Debating Club is twice blest: it blesseth him that gives and him that takes. However to get the full benefit from such work, it is necessary to have a student body that is in- terested and willing to come to meetings and work for the good of the Club.. The reason why Bridgeport lost the two debates this winter was that she had so few well-trained debaters to uphold her honor, and she will lose both debates next year for the same reason unless more interest is shown by the school. Several years ago, students joined the Debating Club when Sophomores, and continued to be members until they gradu- ated. Thus they received three full years of training in debating, and the team could be picked from really experienced members. However, nowadays, because of the crowded curriculm Sophomores are unable to join the Club until juniors or even Seniors. Natur- ally, a team composed of students have had only one or two years training at best, can- not hope to compete successfully with teams composed of students who have had three or four years of work, such as the New Haven and Hartford teams are able to have. This state of affairs was brought to a head this past year when three members of the teams had to be recruited from the student body at large. These students had had prac- tically no training at all in debating. Is it any wonder then that Bridgeport lost two debates this year and is likely to lose two next year unless the student body rallies to the support of the Debating Club. Does Bridgeport High School really want a debat- ing club? That is the question we must all decide and act upon next fall. Gareth Spt't'i'. Hundred Eight T H E C R I 'li E R 1 T H E C R T T E R I O N Hundred Nine 015132 Gregg line wire Iuh One year ago. a group of Commercial girls came together and decided to form an or- ganization fqr the purpose of broadening their knowledge in shorthand. The idea of such an organization was first suggested by Miss Ladd, an instructor in shorthand. Plans were discussed and developed. The Club was organized and officers were elected. It was decided to devote the meet- ings to dictation and speed work. The mot- to 85'fc We Stand, 80W VVe Fall was chosen so that only those having honor marks in shorthand would be eligible for membership. The official Gregg colors, blue and white, were adopted by the Gregg Live-Wires. Once a month a social was held at the homes of various members and memories of the good times will always remain. The girls who have belonged to the club have greatly benefited by it. They have worked diligently to get the required mark so that they might retain their membership and have become more accurate in their speed work. Recently, the Club decided to include junior girls so that they might carry on the idea after the Senior members have gradu- ated. The officers chosen at the beginning of this year were Rachel Baumrind, Presi- dentg Ruth Perry, Vice-President: Rebecca Gottlieb, Secretary, and Doris Henley. Treasurer. The social activities-parties and hikes- tended to bring the members of the club closer together. The Gregg Live-Wires wish to thank Miss Ladd for her inspiring and conscien- tious help and advice.

The first meeting was held December 19 when scenes were acted from La Poudre aux Yeux g an address in French was de- livered by Lucretia Evans, president of the Club: games were playedg and pleasing folk songs were sung. Since that first meeting, the Cercle Fran- cais has been doing a great deal for the in- French students. Cercle is to put terest and benefit of the One of the aims of the French to a practical use, and also to get language. With entertainment out of the this view in mind, some beautiful slides of France were shown at an afternoon assem- bly. Many thanks are due to Mme. Hawes of the morning session, who explained, in French, each picture, and to Miss Benson, who obtained the slides from the Metropoli- tan Museum of Art. April ninth a rare treat was given the French students when Professor Maire of Yale University addressed us. His speech was interesting and delivered so well that the students were able to understand the greater part of whatever he said. According to Professor Maire, New York is-well, never mind-but Paris-ah Paris! is absolument magnilique ! April fifteenth the afternoon French 5 class presented in the Auditorium f'Nicette by Miss Evans, Messrs Barske, Boyne, Skiffg Le Medecine Mystifieq by Misses Thorne, E. Johnson, and Jack Wescheg Les Deux Sourdonby Misses Finkelstein and Adden- brooke, Messrs. Liskofsky and Fiocca. Only members of the Club were present at these representations. The Cercle Francais has awakened the students to the fact that French is a living, beautiful language. It has aroused interest and enthusiasm for French. Vive le Cercle Francais!
