' Introduction N THE morning of September twenty-fourth, Bridgewater High School found many smiling faces greeting the 1934-35 session. Up the steps, through the hall, and in and out of class rooms went hurrying feet. Happy voices could be heard everywhere. Everyone was eager to meet old friends after a long summer's vacation. Bosom pals of last year were trying to get all of the summer's happenings imparted to each other in the few minutes until the bell would ring and school would be in session for the first day. New pupils were welcomed and became acquainted with the old ones. Teachers stepped about briskly, facing cheerfully another term of hard but faithful work. The new session opened with an' enrollment of two hundred and thirteen in high school-forty-one in the senior class, fifty-one in the junior class, sixty in the sophomore class, and fifty-one in the freshman class. We found only one new faculty member-Miss Lucille Scott, teach- er of commercial work. The opening of school created among the pupils a new spirit, the determination to do the very best, and to strive to reach the goal that each had set for himself in 1934-35.
