X CLASS OFFICERS Andrew Murray President Barbara Hall Vice-President President’s Address pARENTS. TEACHERS, AND FRIENDS: It is one of the privileges of my position as President of the Senior Class to welcome you to the most important event of the year at Brookline High School. In all our anticipations of this event through four long years of struggle, we have counted on the presence of this great audience to make the day a success. We have had many meetings as a class during our four years in this school, but this is the first time that we have been honored by a gathering of spectators at one of our celebrations. You have just witnessed the outdoor ceremonies in honor of this, our day, in which the whole school participated. You have also seen the customary cere- 77 I E T E E H T W EHT r ' S 1 X nionv of ])l:uitin« ' ihc ivy as a token of the ratitude and lidelity of our class to the school. r ut now we arc slathered for the indoor c. crcises which are more jjarticu- larl our own. d ' his part of the day is ours and yours with us as our welcome guests, ’ou will hear in turn the history of our career from lowly freshmen to our present dignified prominence. You will hear the predictions in our class ])roi)hecy of the future now stretching hefc ' re us liright iu the distance; you will tinallv hear the class oration in clo(|uent comment on the occasion. The class poem and the class song, celehrating with rhythm and music our affection for this school, will also be heard. To these final ceremonies of the Class of U ) 6 we hid you, our honored guests, a heartfelt welcome, lu another fortnight we shall have gone on our separate ] aths jierhaiis never again to meet in common assembly as we have so often met together. ' I ' his memorahle June afternoon will soon he fading into evening, into night, and then he swallowed uj) in the mass of countless yesterdays; hut for everv one of us, memhers of the Class of 1926, for some who will he ' oiling in iiuhistry, for some in the field of husiness, and for still others in the higher and more diflicult stages of education, it will stand out in our memory as one of the bright and shining landmarks on our long and toilsome journey through life. -kNOHi ' tw Murr.w, President. 78 nineteen t vv e t r ' s I X Ivy Oration T RO I time immemorial the ivy has been lield in most revered esteem, until today it has become a classic symbol. The noble edifices and sacred ruins of Europe are enshrined by its twisting vines. It is most fitting, therefore, that we, the class of 1926, should join in the traditional tribute of our predecessors in seeking to adorn, honor, and protect the walls of our Alma Mater. Eric F. Smith. 79 X I H E T E E H T W EXT r ' S I X CIc7ss History ( I ' .iitcr Crabbed Age, follozvcd by a Youth) Ckabbkd Ac.K : Youngster, you are now leaving grammar school, and next term you are des- tined to join the ranks of the Class of kjcSo at P rook- line High School. It is only fitting that von know some of the traditions of that glorious school. If you ' ll go into the library and get down album No. 3, I’ll tell you about a class of long ago that established the best traditions, and accomplished the most wor.hy deeds, the Class of H)26. ( Young 1030 leaves the stage, procures huge album. a)id returns to his seat, placed a little in the rear of Old Man ' s chair.) Crabbed Age : You know, we were an extra- ordinary class right from the start. Why, the Town of Brookline had to appropriate $550,000 to erect ad- ditional High School buildings to accommodate us. ■Moreover, m t only did the enormous appetite of our class make jwssihle the magnificent lunch-room of to-day, but the Splendid at Coolidge Corner has flourished ever since. ( Youth begins to doze, and soon falls fast asleep, zuithout Crabbed Age uotieiug him.) Johnnie P urge and Bill Jerome had scarcely been assigned to home-rooms, when they a])])eared in football uniforms, and at the close of the season, it was announced that they both had won X’arsity letters. A freshman class usually makes a mess of its elections for officers, and goes on the rocks. However, it showed good taste in electing Jolin Burge, President, Katherine Sweet, Vice- President. Kichard Centle, Treasurer, and Dot Whelan, Secretary. About a week after these elections an article appeared in the Sagamore concerning bobbed hair. It stated that 240 girls out of the 600 at Pb H. ,S. had bolTed hair. Room 37 led the list with si.x out of twelve girls who had abbreviated hirsute appendages. By the time we were graduated from 1 C 11 . S., 1 doubt if one could have found 240 girls in anv high school who did not have bobbed hair. I ' is really sur])rising how much f)ur freshman elections influenced the hair-dressing .styles of a nation. Just about this time. . lec P eal was skiing at Hawes’ Pond, when two youngsters Ijroke through the ice and nearly drowned. . lec saved their lives by a timely rescue, a rescue worthy of any of the Rover Ifoys. After (|uestioning them, however, he found out that some day they would belong to the Class of i )30 at IC H. S. ; sf) he ])ushed them back into the icy waters of Hawes’ Pond. ( )ut of the eight cr)in])etitors in Prize S])caking. . udrey Franklin, Martha Ihrd, James Levensohn. and W illiam Mehegan more than re])resenfed our class. Nine of our masculine musicians ])layed on the hand ; Levensohn made the circidation staff of the Sagamore; . ndy Murray and P ' ric Smith were varsity track men; Mc- Crath and Sims represented us on the ball diamond; Bob Hall and Joe Conway earned letters on the hockey team, while lYl .Sextf)n ])layed first-string tennis, and Ralj)h Johns ' on made his letter on the crew. ' I ' hc Wingate-McF.ttrick trou])e of mermaifis wore our colors in the tank, aided by Ruth Carl, and on the Gym floor, aided by .Aime P.ourneuf. We set the stage for a triumphant ending to our first year by winning the Champiemshi]) in the tug o’ war on Class Day Kelurning to .School in the autumn, our merit was rewarded by our initial 80 NINETEEN TWENTY ' SIX occupation of the new building for an entire year. W’e opened the social season hy giving the Class of 1927 the best reception any E ' reshman class had yet re- ceived. At this social, we instituted several new ideas which are still being used: the use of moving-pictures to entertain the Freshman, and the serving of re- freshments in the old lunchroom. The committee in charge tried to select a picture symbolic of the Class of ’26. They finally chose Agnes Ayres and Richard Dix in “Racing Elearts.” ’e put our fortunes into the hands of Riccy Gentle, Grace W ickcns, Frannie Wingate, and Bill Jerome, by making them Class officers. Our fairy godmother must have been vaccinated with a ])honograph needle, for we certainly had an illustracious group of competent speakers. Audrey Franklin, and James Levensohn impressed the Prize-speaking audience with their de- clamatory abilities, and Edith Sundell made such an impression on the Judges that she won Prize-Speaking for us. Frances Kahle and A 1 Stein participated in “Captain Applejack” to the entire satisfaction of everyone. Rol) Potter, Bill Jerome, and Frank Boles taught Red Grange how to play football, while Gentle, Hall, McGrath, Potter, and Sims played varsity baseball. Murray, Smith, and McGrath were sure point-winners for the track team, and Jerome and Ober- hauser helped win the iMeehan Trophy in the Interscholastic Swimming [Meet, Hall, Conway, and Fitts represented us on the ice, with Ed Sexton and Dick Mullowney playing on the tennis team. Dot Whelan, Aime Bourneuf, and Plelen fingate played first-string field hockey. The Wingate sisters and Helen McEttrick were again the stars of the swimming team, and Ruth Carl, Berthale Hawk, and Natalie Hall played tennis. After such a strenuous year, you can appreciate how much we enjoyed our summer vacation. Realizing that our Junior year was to be more active than any |)revious term, we settled right down to work. Why, the only amusement we had for two months was an occasional crossword puzzle in the Sagamore Gone are the crossword ])uzzles of yesteryear We elected Riccy Gentle, President, Barbara Hall, Bill R.owley, and Charlie Cole as Class officers, and proceeded to enter upon a career of remarkable accomplishme nts. Violet Griffin, Audrey Franklin, Alice Murphy, Martha Bird, Arnold Ackiss, and James Levensohn attained the highest honor at B. El. S., the Honorary Society. We were well represented in Dramatics by Frances Kahle, A 1 Stein, Peg Elelmbold, Dick Sears, Arnold Ackiss, Wendell Jacquith, Alice Murphy, Wildur Willing, Alden Berman, Bill Jerome, Bill Steeves, and Charlie Wirth. We gave the most successful series of socials ever given by a junior Class, due to the modesty of our girls: why, they were so modest, they had to go to the locker room to change their minds! iolet Griffin, Sam Brown, Jim Levensohn, Ed Sexton, and Elarold Singer represented us on the Sagamore; and Ruth Barron, Alice Murphy, and Levensohn jmrticipated in Prize Speaking. The band, with one or two exceptions, consisted of musicians belonging to the class of ’26. The E’our Minute Speakers who upheld our record in that field constituted a quorum for that body, while Alice iMurphy once again made the Interscholastic Debating Team. Our teachers grew to like us so much that they asked the School Committee for an extra half-hour of our company. Much to our joy, permission was granted for our detention in school until two o’clock. This added pleasure, however, did not harm athletics : in fact, that extra half-hour spent with the Faculty seemed, in some strange way, to have inspired our athletes to greater courage and ability. A 1 Stein, Bill Jerome, Roger Gleason, Riccy Gentle, and Roger Phillips won letters in football, after playing Newton to a scoreless tie. Andy Murray, Vin Flennessey, Ed McGrath, Eric Smith, Joe Sims, Cy Potter, and Ed Kingsley were consistent scorers for the track team. Bert Gleason, Jim Mackey, Bill Jerome, and Lester F’hillips helped once more to make Brookline King in the scholastic swimming world. Bob Hall played hockey: and Charlie Cole and Heath Ruell pulled winning oars for the 81 NINETEEN TWENTY ' SIX crew. Kric Sniitli, Dick iMullowncy, I’cpper, and E ' ord were on the tennis team. Riccv ( ' .entle, I ' oh Hall, Kd iMcGrath. and Joe Sims swatted the horse-hide around for a q()od ] lace in the siirhnrhan Twas ne standing ' . c had an ample share of girl athletes in the Wingate sisters. Aime I’ournenf, ITelen McEttrick, Barhara Hall. Knth Carl, Helen Horgan, and Ifleanor Daley. Feeling satis- tield that we had covered ourselves with glory in extra-curriculum activities, we then ] roceeded to ju ' ciiare for hnal exams, and for College Boards. We did not want to leave our . hna iMater for the long vacation of two months, hut we were com])elled to accept it hy the .School Committee, on the grounds that we were on the verge of a nervous hreakdown. We certaiidy could stand a great deal. Returning to school in September, we entered u])on the last lap of our mavelous career at B. 11 . S. We werd greatlv tlattered hv the ])resence of a great many eminent memhers of the class of tQ- 5. students who had been graduated hut who had ] referred to remain be- hind with us as post-graduates. It’s getting near your hed-time now ' , so I’ll have time to tell von onlv about the outstanding events and accomplishments of the vear. We elected Andy Murray, Class President, Barbara Hall, Vice-President, Sam Brown. Treasurer and Hal Singer, Secretary. Alice Murphy became President of the Girls’ Glee Club, while the orchestra had a very successful season with John .Slavin in charge, and Marion Clark as assistant-chief. Alice Murphy and Wallace l owlie won for us the honors in Prize Speaking, hut were pressed for first ])lace hy l uth Barron and Dave Alper. The Honorary Society opened its dofirs, in the f;dl, to four of our classmates, A 1 Stein, Anthony Wax, Wendell Jaaiuith, and Hal Singer. V’e are the first and onlv class at B. H. S. that has been recorded for four years in year books. Well, we deserve it, for a football team consisting of Taglino, Truden, the Gleasons, Stein, Phillips, Morrison, Gentle. Norris, Tonra, Hennessey, and Frost, for the first time in many years, he. ' it Newton ! We cleared over $400 on the Senior Social. The acting in “Such a Little yueen,’’ of Rena Mercer, A 1 Gerstein, Itch Cohen, Paul Sherbert, Charlie Watson, Frances Kahle, Brooke Maury, A 1 Stein, and Wallace Fowlie enabled us to add over $iooo to the Boys’ Scholarship E ' und. The Senior Dance was a fitting climax to the social season. The .Sagamore was put on a firmer financial basis than ever before, due to the tine work of Violet Griffin, Audrey Franklin, P etty Sherril, .Mice Murphy, Gertrude Jewett, Bud Gustafson, Phyllis Sumniers, So])hia I ' orhes, Peg Helmhold, Dave Alj)cr, Sam Brown, Herb Henchel, and Harold Singer. After the mid-year exams, Ruth Barron, Dot Rollins, Marion Clark, Wallace I ' owlie, Dave Alper, and Herb Henchel ap])earcd wearing the Alpha Pi keys of the Honorary Society, d ' he track team almost won the State Chamjiionship hy the fine work of Murray, Hennessey, McGrath, Sims, and Potter. The swimming team did win the Tnterscholastic meet through the ability of Mackey, Phillijis, Gleason, Jerome, Maury, and Oldfield. McGrath, the Gleasons. Howe, Hall, and Norris played baseball, while memhers of our class ])layed on the tennis and golf teams. I y such a brief resume of our four years at 1 ). H. S. you can easily see how say — ! Wake uj) there! young 1930!

Pacing, alone, beside the restless sea. Torturing doubts ached thru my tired brain: “Is life a true, a noble, worthy aim. To he fulfilled and glorified in ; or rather A structure of illusions, built on lies. The lies themselves illusions? Truth or falsehood — W’hich is the greater, which one rules the world? This very day has been a glorious thing Vibrant with blue and gold, warm vith delight. What is the fate of its ensnaring beauty? The fiery sunset smolders into ashes, Aiid the dim twilight is engulfed in night. If death is the inevitable end. What matter how we reach it, when, or why?” Wearied, at last, with futile questioning, I bowed my head, oppressed by dull despair. A moment later, looking up again, I caught mv breath, and gazed with dazzled eyes ; Far out across the waters rose the moon. Spilling her silver glory on the sea. Higher and higher, up the path of heaven She passed, until she held her rightful place. Queen of the sky, crowned in her own jnire light. And as I looked I knew my doubts were answered. “Truth is the sun of life; illusions, mists That veil its vital ibeauty from our sight ; The dead day rises, luminous again. Out of the darkness, when the sun has set.” 89 X 1 H E T E E X T W E X T r ' S I X Oration Jamks Levp:nsoiin LASSMATES and Friends: Many, many years ago. long before the i)ages of history had begun to dry, a great though gentle spirit taught the world the story of Faith, Hope, and Charity. Centuries have since passed and the great truth has come down to us a guide, a torch lighting the way to better understanding. Although the world has interpreted these words in their original meaning, we here today, the Class of 1926, as we enter into a new sidiere of life, must give unto them a broader, more modern significance. As our forefathers stumbled up their thorny paths, entering a brighter world from some more darkened past, we, too, stand at another mile- stone. W ' e step out more firmly, striding forth with the higher pulsating vigor of youth, fortified now with the new b ' aith, the new Hope, the new Charity. Our view point is not that of the challenge not that of a boastful spirit, nor is it that of the supjfiiant, begging bis way, bnt rather it is that of clear-eyed high resolution, that of an uncoiuincrable s])irit of nobility of ])urpose, that of a definitely determined effort for achievement of what is best in life. Our faith in our i)arents and our past is deep, our belief in ourselves and our future is profound. We cannot lose faith in the final efficacy of parental sacrifice. Have they not deprived themselves that we might have? Again, what faith in human friendliness and coo])eration our teachers have instilled in us by their unselfish and valuable labor. W ' e have faith also in that most variable 90 HI H ET ' E eh T W EHT r S I X element, human nature, for, despite many of its deviations, we are sure that it has a tendency toward eventual good rather than evil. Hence, we have faith that those endless mysteries about us, guiding us where we know not, are bearing us toward the better way — the higher plane. .Standing firm with this Faith in our hearts, let us face our futures with a great spirit of hope. The past four years, we trust, have not been spent in idle speculation ; we hope that in accordance with our abilities, our high school career has furnished a solid foundation upon which must now be built a new structure of greater strain of greater weight. Let us hope that we start life with a more powerful impulse toward ac- complishment, with a keener mental and spiritual realization of the world about us, recognizing true values — sorting the wheat from the chaft. Let us trust that we ever carry with us a true sense of proportion — a real understanding of right and of wrong. Let us resolve that our courage will remain high to a carry us through periods of darkness — of trial and of doubt. And, last, let us pray that we do not lose sight of the existence of ideals, the urge for loftier epdeavor as the turmoil of materialism closes in upon us. As our lives are bound securely by Faith and our spirit buoyed up by Hope, so is existence made complete by Charity. We must realize that Charity does not exist merely as the passing of doles to the needy or a word of solace to the distressed. Charity must be viewed in a broader sense. We must learu to see things — not alone according to our own way — but through the eyes of others. We must regard the sincere viewpoints of others as tolerantly as our own. We must try to understand and make allowances for the short-comings of others. Perhaps lack of natural ability — or of limitations of circumstances have prevented their use of such advantages as ours. ' e must be more hesitant to accuse unjustly. We must try to weigh evidence before rendering decisions and do not believe that we alone can be dispensers of justice. Here must we rub away the sharp edges of inexperience and become pos- sessed of that mellow spirit of humility which truly makes us regard our neigh- bors as ourselves. 91 H 1 H ET E EH T XV EHTT ' SIX I ' ortijicd — armored — ijirded witli the ])o verlul sword of Faith, the l)rio ' ht shield of I lope, and the ])liahle auntlet of Charity let us faee our new day — the tomorrow — showiui the world that new leagues of youth are a])])roachin ' , pre- pared to take up the battle of life where it is and with the Faith, Hope, and Charity of today can t;d e our i)l;iees in the ranks of achievement.

The menil)ers of the class have been ])roniinent in all club activities in the school curriculum. In the field of sport our irls, as well as hoys, have upheld the honor of the Red and Blue. The Junior Socials have more than proved their worth not only financially, but also so- cially. They have, moreover, created a splendid feeling of coo])eration among the committee, the faculty, and the students. We look for even greater accom- plishments along every line in the future so that the Class of 1927 may continue to boost and not to boast. To those with whom we have been associated for three years, we extend our most hearty good wishes. ] Iay they find life all that their desires have painted it. In our turn we hoj)e to uphold the standards which they and all other Senior Classes of the Brookline High School have made so worthy. BIekuert a. Woods, Prcsidcni. 97 18 192S H I H E r E E H TWEHTT ' SIX ZJhe Class of 1928 I N October the Sophomore Class held its elections, choosing Gerald Vachon, President; Louise Brown, Vice-President; Edward Brown, Secretary; and John Jewett, Treasurer. Daniel Rollins and Louise Brown served as marshals-elect to the Teacher-Student Council and to the Court of Justice. In the late fall the Sophomores gave a reception to the incoming Freshman for the purpose of making them better acquainted with those with whom they are to be associated for the next three years. This has been the only social event for the class this year, but it more than accomplished its aim. The Sophomore Class has had on the Various Varsity teams a number of candidates, some of whom were members of the football team which defeated Newton. Numerous others were participants in Track, Hockey, Baseball, Tennis and Crew, all cogs of a great machine which cannot function without the aid of everyone. VT, the Class of IQ28, are ahoul to move into our Junior year and as we gaze hack over the many events that have occurred with this short year just past, we feel safe in saying that the Sophomore Class has played an important part in every event that has made the vear such an enjoyable one. May every member of the Class of 1928 cherish the ideal of making a more creditable record next year than we have heretofore established ; may every member keep up this good work so that when the class leaves the portals of Brookline High School; it will he said that 1928 was the greatest class ever graduated.

After the members had become acquainted, the class elections were held and the following officers were chosen: Francis Hall, Presi- dent: Elizabeth Jacobs, ' ice-President ; Barrett Roberts, Secretary; Josej)h Lynch, Treasurer. The elections of the marshals followed. These were held in the home rooms and of those elected Barbara Ensign and Francis Hall were chosen to represent the class in the Teacher-Student Council and Pauline [Miller and Francis Hall in the Court of Justice. The class has been well represented in athletics and in other activities of the school. The class hopes always to make itself worthy of the Brookline High School.

In fact, they have displayed what the name signifies — Excellence and Leadership. Starting with seven memljers at the be- ginning of the term, the Society has increased its membership — to twenty-two. Further recognition has been given to worth-while organizations, and an effort has been made to raise the low marks of many students. The society itself corresponds to the College Society, “Phi Beta Kappa,” but has, in our estimation, an added feature over that remarkable institution. Not only is it necessary to obtain good marks to earn Alpha Pi, but it is also compulsory to have participated in school activities. .Since the Honorary Society was founded in 1916, membership in it has been recognized as the highest possible honor attainable in the school. Students of low grade have always been denied admission. A clear field to the goal now lies before each student, and it only remains for each one to take advantage of his opportunities. jMembership in Alpha Pi is the greatest achievement to be made in Brookline High School.

H I n E T E E TWENTT ' SIX Court of Justice I ' ' HE Court of Justice is the judicial branch of the Student Government in the school. It has for its members a Chief Justice (chosen by the school), the presidents of all four classes, and a member chosen from the marshal body of each class. A ninth member is a faculty advisor who speaks only when she feels it is necessary or when called upon for her opinion in the matter. The court handles all cases of student discipline which are referred to it by the headmaster, the president of the Teacher-Student Council, or the captain of the Marshals. 107 108 nineteen TWENTT ' SIX ' - 577e Marshals T he r Iarshals comprise what is know as the executive branch of the Student- Government. They are elected before the close of school in the spring from the Junior, Sophomore and Freshmen classes which will be the Senior, Junior and Sophomore classes respectively the following fall. They take office immediately on the open- ing of school in September and serve for one year. The Freshmen Marshals however are elected from the incoming class the first week in October. It is the duty of the Marshals to enforce at all times the regulations of the school and the Teacher-Student Council regardless of whether or not they are on corridor or lunch-room assignments. The assignments are issued for two weeks, every second week a different shift going on duty. Since the formation of the Student-Government plan eight years ago, the Marshal force has consisted of fifty-one students including the Captain. But this year because of the establishment of additional marshal posts in the corridors and the complication involved by the double recess periods, it was deemed necessary to increase the number of marshals by the addition of twenty new members; five from each of the four classes, making seventy-one altogether. Each Marshal wears insignia which consists of a bronze bar pin with the word IMarshal on it. This pin is worn at all times. In order that the IMarshals on traffic duty may be more readily recognized, it was thought advisable to equip them with arm-bands, which are worn only during the time of their corridor assignments. The Marshals wish to thank the entire student body and the faculty for their helpful cooperation in making the Student-Government a real success. S-‘ Mur:L S.

They have had several speakers, given entertainments, and remembered many sick girls of the school. The terms of office run from Februarv to February and the former officers: Barbara Hall, president ; Alexandra Centervall, vice-president ; Dorothy Rollins, secretary-treasurer, were succeeded by Alexandra Centervall president ; Louise Brown, vice-president ; and Marianna McAfee, secretary-treasurer. Talks have been given on business, art, and professions, which were greatly enjoyed. This varied field helps many girls in their choice of future work and explains about the employment itself. The ideals of the League are expressed in one word — Friendship. All the girls have the common bond of the High school, whether they are socially or athletically inclined, and they must not forget that. Freshman girls transferring from other schools, and other lonesome individuals, find the League verv much of a cordial factor in their new surroundings. The girls are most enthusiastic over the year’s accomplishment, thanks Ui iMiss Sawyer, their best and most ardent supporter. Alexandra Centervall, President.

' ith Rena iMercer ' 26 hlling the title role and such people as Albert Gerstein, Israel Cohen, Charles WHtson, Alfred Stein, Malcolm Hagar, Frances Kahle, Brooke Maury and Paul Sherbert to assist her, the townspeople of Brookline were entertained by probably tbe best production that tbe school has ever given. The cast, however, does not deserve all the glory for the remarkable per- formance. In the first place. Miss Potter, the coach, and Mrs. Hughes, her assis- tant, are to be complimented for their success. Then came the numerous com- mittees, who, although the audience does not see them, are just as essential and deserve as much credit as the cast. The faculty committee consisting of Miss Lewis, Miss Allen, Mrs. Hen- derson, IMiss Pease, and Mr. Zanzig, supervised the entire jtroduction. They were assisted by James Adam in the capacity of Stage Manager, Harold Singer as the Business Alanager, Paul Smythe as Electrician, Charles Wirth as Prop- erty Manager, Herbert Hencbel as Costume Manager, and LeRoi Brereton as Scenic Director. Since the new auditorium has been in use we lack but one thing in our dramatic productions and that is adequate lighting facilities. We have an abundance of talent, we have one of the largest and best stages in all New Eng- land, but cvhenever get ready to give a play, we are obliged to hire flood- lights and a spotlight. Isn’t there some way by which the clubs interested in the use of the stage can procure this equipment without having to hire it each time ? James Adam Jr. 113 114 REAR: P. Meade, E. Sexton, H.

Ihe Board have not only managed to improve the school paper by using more pictures and cartoons than ever before, but they have left the Sagamore on a really firm finan- cial basis. They take great pleasure in announcing that the treasurer ' s books show a balance of $ioo. The Sagamore has grown and expanded very gradually during the past four years. It has been interesting to watch the development of the paper, from the issue of four years ago, so carefully planned regarding expense, to the splen- did Newton football issue which was published this year. It is fitting that grat- itude be expressed to Mr. Spaulding who rendered such helpful advice during the Autumn issues. Moreover the interest of the school in the Sagamore has increased greatly. This was made evident by the abundance of poems and short stories which have appeared in current issues this year. The position of Faculty Advisor to the Sagamore is a thankless task. We wish to take this opportunity to express to iMiss Willgoose and to iMr. Jewett our appreciation of their untiring and congenial collaboration throughout the past year.

NINETEEN TWENTY ' SIX Four-Minute Speakers HE current year has been an exceptionally rich one in athletic and social| functions: and as in past years, the four-minute speakers have given devoted service to the school. In fact so much work was placed upon the group that it was deemed neces- sary to add several new members and to their credit it can be said that their work was most effective. They always counted it a privilege to boom any oc- casion. for, when the occasion was a success, they felt that they had had a good share in making it so. The senior speakers feel content in leaving this organization in the hands of the lower classes, who can be relied upon to carry on the good work.

With Miss Poland as Captain, and Ruth Richardson, a former student, as Lieutenant, the following officers were elected; Barbara Forbes and Mary Kelly as Patrol Leaders, Margaret Comstock, Secretary, and Elise Richardson, Treas- urer. W eekly meetings are held in Shailer Hall. Various interests claim our at- tention from candy pulls and tied dye-work to over-night hikes. At the request of Miss Sawyer, the Troop has taken complete charge of the Emergency Room this year. i .n attempt is being made to establish a fund for a g irl’s scholarship which is to he given yearly as follows: 1st. To that girl, a member of the Troop, whose scholarship, attendance and need warrant such aid. But if no such girl applies — 2nd. To that girl scout, not a member of the Troop, whose scholarship and attendance and need warrant such aid. C)r if neither of the aforementioned apply— 3rd. To that senior girl whose scholarship and attendance and need war- rant such aid. 121 -- «- C i « C - , V C V) • s a ; -£-s ?. = -Q- ' S ; era o U o . p .i n Ui S o o ' iZ - 2 s§« psi S ?

By popular vote the day of meeting was changed from the first Thursday of the- month to the second Wednesday. In November a very interesting talk on “Jelly-Waking was given by Miss Ida Ratzhoft of Colorado. The December meeting falling on the anniversary of the birth of Ellen Richards, the founder of the American Home Economics Association, a sketch of her life was presented. Because of midyear examina- tions in January, and the great blizzard in February, the Club did not meet. In March there was an entertainment in Shailer Plall ; in April, a play was staged ; and in May, a party closed the year ' s gatherings. There are many talented girls in the Club, all of whom have contributed of their best toward its success. The Domestic Science Club extends to Miss Smith and Miss Jones thanks for their work and help during the year. Eleanor Mitchell, ’26. 123 124 PHI ALPHA SIGMA FOURTH; J. Freedman. F. Lane. R. Mercer.

The committee gave I the school socials that were on a par with, if not better, than those of otheh ' years. The cooperation and whole-hearted way in which the members worked was clearly exhibited throughout the year. The manner in which the affairs were conducted shows the efficiency of a truly remarkable group. The members of the faculty were so helpful that it is no wonder the Committee has met with such success.. This group of people will very likely distinguish themselves next year in the social activities of the class, but they have made a lasting impression in the annals of the Class of 1027. 127 128 THIRD: H Cossitt, A.

Band A T the first of the year when our band was organized its future seemed doubt- fill. Its first appearance in public was at the Newton-Brookline football game. It made a brave attempt and everyone knows how through Mr. Zanzig’s efforts the band helped to spur our team to victory. For a time, there were no band rehearsals and it looked as though there would be no band. But Mr. Zanzig was not to be daunted and he desired to give B. H. S. a band that would open poeple’s eyes. He accordingly set about to re-organize the band. Paul Jaquith was elected President and the band began again, this time to make a name for itself. They have played at several assemblies. At present the members are rehearsing faithfully for Class Day and their intentions are to make B. H. S. proud of its band. Here’s wishing it the best of luck for the future!

Zanzig, the Brookline High School Orchestra has made a creditable showing this year, both in school activities and elsewhere. Early in the season they had the privilege of a broadcast from the radio station WNAC, while later they played at both the J. Murray Kay contest and the annual dramatics. The orchestra was honored l)y having two of its members chosen for tlie National High School Orchestra which met in Detroit early in April. Mr. John Slavin was their only representative, however, as Miss Vivian Ward was unable to attend through sickness. The members feel that much credit is due Mr. Zanzig for the time which he has given for their performances.

A large membership was enrolled in the fall, and the officers elected at the end of the previous year took charge: Alice Mur- phy, President; Alexandra Centervall, Vice-President: Marianna McAfee, Sec- retary; Betty Hamilton, Treasurer. Regular weekly meetings were held from October to May. The Cluh sang at the Norfolk County Teachers’ Convention, the Fathers ' and Sons’ Night at the First Baptist Church in Brookline, at the Evening School Graduation, the Brookline Music School Concert, the Christmas Festival, and the Christmas meeting of the French Club. They also broad-casted Christmas carols from WNAC. That the social side might not be neglected, the annual Glee Club ] arty was held in Shailer Hall on April i6th and proved a great success. The Club extends its hearty thanks to Mr. Zanzig for his untiring work as musical director during the year. Alicu Murphy, ’26, President. 133 154 GIRLS’ MANDOLIN CLUB FRONT: M. Hai ' dy, K.

The first engagement was at a Inncheon of the Brookline Friendly Society at the Town Hall. Since, there has been reg- ular weekly practice. The membership, the largest for several years, totals at present fourteen, there being represented six mandolins, two banjos, two violins, three ukeleles, and a piano. The club is proud of its successful season and hopes that the undergraduates will continue the good work next year. Bernadine Truden ’26, President. 1.35 I £ T £ £ N T V E HT r S I X Ohe French Club T he main purpose of “Le Cercle Francais” is to create more interest in France and in the French language tlian can otherwTse he created in the classroom and to afford the pupils a greater opportunity to use the language. This is the sixth year of its existence and the officers and teachers seem to consider it a very successful one. . ' s the membership has increased greatly, it has been expedient to prepare a different kind of entertainment from that of other years. Illustrated lectures have, therefore, been prevalent. At the opening meeting Miss Gambrill delivered a lecture on a trip on the Seine, and M. Morize of Harvard University lectured at the January meeting on the history of Paris. It has been the custom in the last few years to have the entertainment for one meeting furnished by the French classes in the grade schools. The precedent was continued this year. At each meeting a French atmosphere was easily discerned, and it was in- teresting to note the enthusiasm with which the under-classmen greeted these meetings. Their interest was so keen that the Christmas party was put in their hands and proved a great success. The officers hope that this year has ])erpetuated the high standard of work which was accomplished in former years, ami most heartily wish the club greater success in the years to come. Wall-acp a.

X I H c T E E X T W E X T r - S I X Football T he football team of 1926 was an organization of which the school was proud. The team stood high in the suburban league, scoring 66 points to the season’s opponent’s 41 points. More than this, for the first time in nine years it defeated our dearest rival, Newton, with a final score of 6 to o. Captain “Jodie” Meegan was the real Brookline leader, whose fighting spirit had much to do with the success of the team. He was the all-scholastic choice of six Boston newspapers. The season was the most successful that Brookline has enjoyed for many years, both from the scholastic standing of the large scpiad and the support of the school and the townspeople. The Kiwanis Club of Brookline will be long remembered by the entire squad for the splendid banquet which it gave in recognition of the good work accom- plished by the team in 1926. The success of the players throughout the season w-as a tribute to Mr. Hines, whose untiring effort and indomitable spirit were an inspiration to his team. Wilber J.

At its four dual meets the team was compelled to how only :o the Alumni and then just bv a close margin. This year’s track team was the best supported one in the history of the sport. The team included ten letter men and a state chamj)ion, Edward McGrath, premier school boy dash man, Eric Smidi, high point scorer and 300 yarder, and Richard Gentle, who equalled the world’s record for the 45-yard high hurdie.s, the bright lights of the aggregation. Through the excellent work of Mr. Hines, director of athletics, many valuable prospects for next year have been developed. Air. Hines is especially anxious that more of the Ereshman and Sophomore boys should come out for track. The team and its director are certainly to be congratulated on the tine record made this year.

HIKETEEH TWEHTT ' SIX (Boys ' Swimming Team B rookline High School’s swimming team went through another undefeated schedule which culminated in winning the Lieutenant George R. Meehan Trophy Meet with the greatest number of points ever to be scored by any team in that competition. The first meet of the year, the Annual Inter-class Meet, was won by the Junior Class. Coach James McNamara vas able to select from this competition a varsity team which defeated Boston English High School, Malden High School, Brown University ’29, and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Freshman. At the end of the season, Lester Phillips was elected to succeed Captain James Mackey. Phillips was high point scorer with 40 J 4 points over his nearest competitor. Brook Maury with 34 4 points. The letter men for 1926 are Cap- tain James Mackey, captain-elect Lester Phillips, Thompson Brook Maury, Ed- ward Densmore Jr., John Rae, Bertram Gleason, Martin Ford, Ralph Fay, John Lynch, Wilbur Oldfield, John Coutts, Francis Bennett, Edward Malkin and stu- dent-manager, Herbert G. Henchel. The swimming team was given a banquet and presented with medals, sym- bolic of the New England Inter-scholastic Championship by Mr, James P, Mackey Sr,, a prominent local merchant. All credit for the team’s splendid showing is due to Coach James McNamara who, handicapped by ineligibilities and lack of material, nevertheless, developed a no-star team which, for the sixth out of a possible seven times, brought the Lieu- tenant George R.

W ' e had a new hockey mentor, i Ir. Leo Hughes, formerly of the B. A. A. His aim was to teach the fundamentals of hockey. In a way, therefore, we ha e had a successful season in that the team of this year, with the exception of one, will next year have the experience of veterans. It was indeed gratifying that so many took advantage of this chance to learn the game of hockey. We were sorry that Captain Bob Hall could not play with us, as he would have been a boon to the team of 1926. Francis Boles, Manager . 147 ]48 CREW BACK: W. Adelson, B. laury, L. Reuell, W.

Owing to the lack of interest shown in tennis last year, we decided to run two teams of seven men each in order to develop men for future Brookline Tennis Teams and to create greater enthusiasm for the game. Although we have a difficult schedule, I feel that we shall go through the season without a defeat because of the high calibre of our players.

The first competition was the interclass meet, the honors being won by the Juniors. In a meet with two other schools, Pawtucket and Concord, Brookline scored the highest number of points.

In a Suburban League, they hnished second, a great improvement over last year, when they finished last. In fact, they lost only one match and that one was to the winners of the league. The majority of the team is of the junior class; in addition, much time was de- voted to developing the .Sophomores and h ' reshmau. These facts lead us to entertain still greater hopes of winning the championship and getting a leg on the troj)hy next year. .Vs to the club, a special room was set aside for its use. There was playing practically every afternoon and instruction from several teachers two or three times a week. There has been more response from the school to this organization and there are possibilities for its membership increasing rajiidlv in the future. Indeed, the Honorary Society gave recognition to the team. In most of the games, the line-up was as follows: M. lironstein L. Davidson |. l .evensohn H. Canada D. Alper 1 ). (loldman B.

Golf A T the first call for candidates for the golf team, ten players responded of whom there were four veterans from last year’s team: Riihard Mullowney, Edward Langenback, Lundie .Steele and James Conway (Captain). The golf team is looking forward t(j a most successful season, for although golf is not a major s])ort in our school, we hope that we shall be able to have a j)erfect record with the teams we play, d ' he matches we have obtained for the coming season are with Newton, May 3: Exeter, May 8; Fessenden, Alay 13; Reading, May 17: and Andover, May 22.
