MURIVIAN 1938 BROOKLINE HIGH SCHOOL BROOKLINE MASSACHUSETTS 3 1712 01439 6355 Fo ieno rd The Class of 1938 takes great pleasure in presenting this annual as a permanent record of our days at school, our hopes, and our accomplishments. As each day saw the progress in the construction of the new building, so we experienced a corresponding development. For this reason, we have taken the expan- sion and improvement of the school build- ing as a theme for our yearbook. May we here impart to you some of the many joys and enthusiasms which have been ours at Brookline High School. Dedication We who have had the good fortune to come into contact with Mr. Benjamin D. Roman have been strengthened by his personal interest. He has helped us solve academic and social problems which will have an infinite bearing upon the rest of our lives. In consideration of his services, we proudly dedicate to him the 1938 MURIVIAN as a token of our deep gratitude and appreciation. 3 Acknowledgment During the last year, six of our teachers have left school. We gratefully acknowl- edge the services of: Mr. John Cocoran, former Packard house- master, whose personality and versatility will always be remembered. Mr. Chester Downing, whose contributions as Roberts housemaster, as faculty adviser of Scholarship Dramatics and of the School Council have imprinted him deeply in our hearts. Miss Mary C. Jones, whose thoughtful- ness and unusual ability as a poet are out- standing. Miss Etta May Miller, who is beloved for her graciousness, sincerity, and never-failing interest in us. Mr. John C. Packard, who is revered not only for his breadth of knowledge but also for his fine character which has been an inspiration to everyone of us. Miss Anna M. Schwind, who really gave needlework a place of importance in all Brookline schools. 4 Table of Contents Page In Memoriam 6 Seniors 7 Who ' s Who 75 Class Day 76 Senior Committees 78 Class History 80 Class Song 82 Last Will and Testament 83 Class Poem 84- President ' s Address 85 Class Oration 85 Departments 87 Advertisements 171 5 In Memoriam They never quite leave us, our friends who have passed Through the shadows of death to the sunlight above; A thousand sweet memories are holding them fast To the places they blessed with their presence and love. The work which they left and the books which they read Speak mutely, though still with an eloquence rare, And the songs that they sang, the words that they said, Yet linger and sigh on the desolate air. Margaret E. Sangster ALFRED BICKERSTAFF STANLEY LIVINGSTONE EDYTHE SEGAL Seniors Let me but do my work from day to day, In field or forest, at the desk or loom, In roaring market-place or tranquil room; Let me but find it in my heart to say, When vagrant wishes beckon me astray, This is my work; my blessing, not my doom; Of all who live, I am the one by whom This work can best be done in the right way. Then shall I see it not too great, nor smail, To suit my spirit and to prove my powers; Then shall I cheerful greet the laboring hours, And cheerful turn, when the long shadows fall At eventide, to play and love and rest, Because I know for me my work is best.

Cla«« History — 1938 COLLEGE ENTRANCE EXAMINATION BOARD HISTORY D — AMERICAN HISTORY Thursday, June 9, 1938 8 p.m. 2 hours Part I. Trace the rise of the Senior Class of 1 938 since their migration to Brookline High School, treating the rise politically, socially, and economically. Be specific and use illustrations. Seeking refuge from rules and regulations, lengthy homelessons, and opportunity periods, the Class of 1938 migrated from all corners of the town, and having taken out their first papers, be- came naturalized as citizens of B. H. S. The first right gained was their political freedom; where- upon elections were held, and from the mass arose their first leaders: Bob Berman as president, Betty Rogers as vice-president, Marion Carter, secretary, and James Burnes, treasurer. As leader of this group, Bob represented them at the School Council and Court of Justice. This small group governed the policies of the class until the next year when Bob Berman and Betty Rogers were re- elected and Hilda Abrams and Joe Miller became secretary and treasurer respectively. Cliff Hill helped to mete out justice in the Court and Hilda Abrams in the School Council. The next year saw Ace Bailey and Betty McCabe as newcomers to the offices of vice-president and secretary respec- tively; while to the School Council went Betty McCabe, and the Court welcomed Joe Miller. To lead their class in the critical period known as Graduation Year, Bob Berman, Howard Bailey, Betty McCabe and Dick High were chosen as graduating class officers. But this class had reached such proportions, it needed two subdivisions of government known as Lincoln and Roberts Houses. Andy Weeks, Cliff Hill, Jane Crowell, and Joe Miller headed Lincoln House, while Cliff Fitzpatrick, Jean McCracken, Ruth Hill and Charlie Johnson governed Roberts House. Ruth Hill, Fitzpatrick, Betty McCabe and Berman participated in the Council. Cliff Hill was elected to the high office.of Chief Justice with Maurice Helpern and Ruth Hill as representatives from this class. Ace Bailey became captain of the well-organized Marshal force with Betty McCabe as his able assistant. Not only did this class delve into political matters, but as members of B.H.S. social freedom was also theirs. In the Girls ' League we find Marysia Chmielinski and Betty Rogers setting the pace with an original presentation called Lincoln Ventures. During the year 1937, we find Barbara Webber holding the office of vice-president, and in 1938 Hilda Abrams became president assisted by Marysia Chmielinski as chairman of the senior advisers. Not lacking artistic ability, this class contributed much to the dramatic offerings with Betty McCabe as feminine lead throughout the years and Leonard Cohen, Bob Raymer, George Bowditch, and Joe Miller starring in the male roles. Crowning these years of artistic effort, Joe Miller received the Jay Murray Kay prize speaking award and Betty McCabe received honorable mention in their senior year. Combining the scholastic with the social, this class was outstanding for its participation in clubs. In the German Club, Helen Frank, Virginia Floyd, and Adele Friedstein held offices. The English club was headed by Hilda Abrams and Marion Kopel, Elinor Goldberg, and Bob Berman took their places as French Club leaders. Spanish Club standout was Emma Naranjo. Those boys more scientifically inclined such as Merton Hubbard and Joseph Osgood supervised the activities of the Science Club, and Don Schein headed the Camera Club. Freedom of the press was realized through the school paper which was under the guidance of Sol Levine, Bob Berman, the Pinanski twins, Joe Miller, Ira Ber- 80 man, Dave Susskind, Bob Gustafson, and Dick Feffer. Under this group, the first Sagamore Car- nival was run with the greatest success. The Class of 1938 showed its spirit by reestablishing the custom of having a highly successful Junior Prom. From this famous class the Honorary Society re- ceived a number far exceeding the average with Robert Berman and Sol Levine as officers. Contributing to the rise of this class was the fact that no other one ever had as many people on the first honor in one quarter as the Class of 1938 had in its first year. With other people on the first honor roll, Elinor Goldberg has kept up this tradition by maintaining her position on this first honor well through her Senior year. Spreading the fame of the class by athletic teams, many boys and girls stood out in their dif- ferent sports. Football stars were Captain Bob Beal, all-scholastic’ mentions Dick High and Tom White, Joe Sullivan, Ira Berman, Cliff Fitzpatrick, Hacker Lewis, Gale Foster, and Tom Ferguson. Over the hurdles and down the cinders went Captain Sonny Wolfson, Harry Myers, Maurice Hel- pern, Bob Raymer, Phil Finn, Alan Dreyfus, Manny Baron, Charlie Johnson, and Jackie Byrne to score for their class. On the basketball court Capt. Cliff Fitzpatrick, Dan O ' Neil, Hirshey Copeland, Gale Foster, and Bob Lally made many a basket. Of the mermen, Captain Doug Burton, Dud Emerson, Hank Cooke, and Bob Muir were the consistent point scorers. As pucksters Fran Shar- key, Soapy McGuire and Gundy Kirrane were the cream. Capt. Liner, Jim Mclnerney, and Cliff Fitzpatrick delighted baseball fans with their capers on the diamond. Scoring in tennis were Capt. Byrnes, Phil Cassidy, Joe Strock, and George Adams. In golf Fran Jantzen and Frank Kirrane won many games. In the feminine field Jean Pinanski, Betty Rogers, Natalie Robinson, Claire Rabinovitz, Charlotte Cooper, and Alzada Small triumphed in tennis. The swimming team had Rose Pignato, Helen Frank, and Ruth Waikama as star members. Captain Julie Mulvihill led the field hockey team onto victory; while the throngs at the athletic contests were led in cheers by Marysia Chmielinski, Sonny Wolfson, and Ace Bailey. An important feature of the success of B. H. S. ' s Senior Class of 1938 is the sound economic system it helped to build. Astute bankers that they were, Dottie Silverstein and Nat Wood gov- erned the banking system of the school. Successful Red Cross drives were supervised by Rosalind Stern and Jean Pinanski. Thus, year by year, this class has continued building firmly on the foundation of Brookline High School, to leave a fine structure remaining forever through the wear of time. 81 3 i J i i iMt sun -fhait sKeds its j Our n € u_£ r ovr v-eri n -fr Txus qoIAen Yfc-US y Ifirouqh 1V € tjcV.rSj ■•r ' i Knov lpd4e einllrulK sK 41 JtqhT PUrch imi jl.- Icnq Vnidl hopes 1 H o ... our wa.M$.

P: 82 Last ' Will and Testament Know all men by these presents: that we the Class of 1938 of Brookline High School, in the town of Brookline, county Norfolk, and in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, being of sound mind and in full possession of our faculties except Murray Koblenzer, whom we do not attempt to classify , but realizing our shortcomings, do hereby duly make ordain, and establish this to be our last will and testament, hereby revoking any and all wills heretofore made by us. After payment of our just debts and cremation charges, we bequeath and devise as follows: First: We leave Mr. Roman, Mr. Seamans, and the rest of the faculty our sincere appreciation and many thanks for their patient guidance, help, and consideration during the past four (or more) years of our association with them. Second: Naomi Isaacson leaves her well-rounded versatility to Judy Shockett. Carry on, Judy. Third: Although it ' s neither here nor now, Miss Lewis ' s dear young friends leave her a copy of Walpole ' s Fortitude ' and a gold framed picture of Lord Byron. Fourth: Bal O ' Neil leaves his code of living: purity, body, flavor. And it ' s only Bal that has all three. Fifth: We leave Mrs. Potter and her lunch room a heaping plate of cheese fondue, an acute case of gastric acidity, and a large box of bicarbonate of soda. Sixth: Marysia Chmielinski, taking up from where Harry Chmielinski and Helenka Chmielinski left off, leaves Dick and Jack Chmielinski to carry on the name of Chmielinski — why don ' t they change their name to Smith. Seventh: To Miss Deal and the Sagamore,’ we leave the class of 38 ' s gift to the journalistic world — Sol Levine. Eighth: We leave Lenny Cohen an appointment card tor Gussie ' s Girdle Shop. Ninth: Bob Berman leaves his executive ability and brilliant leadership to Danny Cadiff. May his changes of 39 main- tain the standards left by the change of ' 38. Tenth: We leave Mr. Bates our marshal posts, just as we have left them all year.

Twelfth: Lloyd Allen leaves his broad-mindedness to some bashful freshman. Thirteenth: The Pinanski twins leave the faculty a bit cross-eyed after four years of playing their game of ' guess who? ' Fourteenth: Having said her piece, Irene Grass leaves a worn-out phonograph needle. Fifteenth: The girls leave Mr. Miller with a pang in their hearts and a plea for a six-year course with five periods of social studies. Sixteenth: We leave Mr. Charles Bemis a comb and brush and a large bottle of wave-set. Seventeenth: Tom White leaves his golf socks with eighteen holes to Austin Gibbons. Eighteenth: Betty McCabe leaves Miss Hannon a pair of empty shoes, hoping Ruth Cohen wears size 4, too. Nineteenth: We leave our version of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs : Dopey, Sonny Gerstein; Bashful, Bob Beal; Sneezy, Mr. Arizona Clark; Happy, Ace Bailey, Sleepy, Dick Feffer; Doc, Len Cohen; Grumpy, Coach Brown; Prince Charming, Norm Keyes; and Snow White, Jane Crowell. Twentieth: We leave the new building to the class of 39. May they use it in the best of health. Twenty-first: We leave our memoirs and great ' school spirit to hallow the corridors for years and years to come. In testimony whereof, we the class of 1938 hereby appoint as executor of this will Mr. Thomas Fitzgerald, and in the presence of the undersigned declare this to be our last will and testament.

MILLER ROBERT GUSTAFSON Class Attorneys Witnesses: DOROTHY SILVERSTEIN ALFRED COPELAND IRWIN KATZ CHARLES JOHNSON 83 Cla«« Poem STONE ON STONE John Sabini The Phoenix, fabled bird, allows the flame To eat its life away, well knowing then That from the ashes it will rise again, Alive, triumphant. Man can temper, tame His fate: the storm, the flood and fire that claim The building cannot be the victors when Out of the ashy ruin, hands of men Erect anew and put the old to shame. So, like the Phoenix from its funeral-pyre, Rise from the ashes of imperfect lives, Renascent, with the strain of past sins gone; Or, like the fortress gutted by the fire, Accept the lesson which stern fate contrives: Rebuild Youth ' s tower staunchly — stone on stone. Pre«i«fent Ada! Robert Berman Classmates: Once again we meet together, and mingled with our sighs of parting sound the impatient mur- murs of expectant youth. Tonight we sing farewell to our high-school days; tonight we turn our faces to a new world and a new life. We are a generation born into a dynamic age, an age where things are on the move. Ours is the chance to prospect, to pioneer, and to practise in fields of thought and endeavor such as those before us knew nothing about. For during the many years to come we shall match develop- ments so unusual that perhaps the imagination cannot foresee them, and we shall be summoned to take our parts in these coming changes. But in our buoyant eagerness to push on into the promising future, let us never forget how much we owe to our parents and to our teachers. Thanks to them, the towers which symbolize our ives stand on firm foundations. Without them we could never be ready for, nor equal to, our share in framing life ' s structure. Now it remains for us to build the rest — to raise our towers to heights unequalled. £4 Clii«« Oration Leonard A. Cohen As far back as we can remember some enticement was offered to get us to put forth a little effort. At the age of infancy, it was cookies that coaxed us to perform; a little later the reward of a nickel could induce anything from running errands to practicing a music lesson. As we mentally advanced, the problem grew more complex. Today, while the mere promise of a good time will draw many to the ends of the earth, it is more the search for accomplishment that makes the majority of us im- patient to get away from the shelter of home, school, and church to taste a new freedom. No matter in what fields of endeavor the future lies, it presents a challenge to our ability to overcome its obstacles. In these times, life looks at us with a stern eye and measures our capabilities without reservation or condition, asks for proof of our acclaimed merits, and brusquely discards us if we fail to measure up to standard. It is in the light of this strict scrutiny that we must plan our way. If we could duplicate the lives of the great, always profit by others ' errors, success would be a guaranteed reality; but it is unfortunately true that the bitterness of personal experience most often serves as a source of guidance. While honesty, truth, religion, justice, industry, honor and love serve as symbolic guideposts of life, they are meaningless until we transform them into dynamic action. This is no doubt idealistic philosophy, but by making an honest effort to translate these quali- ties into everyday life, we will gain the satisfaction of being able to face ourselves with clean, un- troubled souls. The task is not an easy one, for our present-day world seethes with subversive movements — wars threaten, glittering artificialities beckon to our impulsive youthfulness. The vaporous wraith, Opportunity of Life, evades our grasp until we learn that opportunities are not found at our casual ease but are acquired by determined effort. We discern how mediocrity and resignation to life ' s buffets reduces men to very minor cogs in the machine of which they could well be the driving force if only they maintained their individualism. It is then that an understanding of the education that now lies behind comes to us. We have been like molten steel made of the finest ingredients over which workmen have continually labored, and it is the future that will temper the steel and test its mettle. It is on the threshold of this process that we now stand. Before we leave the crucible, let us remember to discriminate between the false and the good, not to look back on past success and rest but ever to strive toward new horizons, to maintain a fine individualism and not to forget that lasting success is gained only through the expedient of hard work. Congenial with this spirit, St. Edmund of Canterbury once said Work as though you would live forever; but live as though you would die today. 36 e com the construction of this went careful planning, materials and industry. Toward 14 Towards the completion of their high school career went thought- ful guidance, careful teaching, and the cooperation of each department. This year marks the graduation of a group of students who ha ve been trained to serve the future with dependa- bility. 87 MR. WILFRED H. RINGER Headmaster Nature sometimes uses fire as one of her most destructive agencies. In a brief hour it may level the work of ages. And yet, how little it avails against the creative power of man! So has it been with us. For out of the dead ashes of the past rises, Phoenix-like, a rich inheritance, which, once again, becomes the treasure-house of ancient traditions and the prophecy of a new glory. Should this structure remain but a hollow mass of brick and stone, for us it can have no permanence. Only as we give it life and character, will it reflect usefulness and beauty. Our privilege? To recreate within it a soul! ' Too low they build, who build beneath the stars. 38 MISS MARY WEBSTER SAWYER Dean of Girls During the last year you have watched a new Brookline High School rise from the ruins of the old building. As yet, the new structure is unfinished, its full beauty not apparent until it becomes of service and pulses with the challenge and inspiration of new tasks, the fellowship of comrades in a worthy cause. Even so, you have been laying foundations strong and deep and dreaming dreams of the structure you would raise. Into the wisdom of the past you have delved, and with the resources of the present you have worked that you might build your life upon the foundation best suited to its needs. May you build well, making the world a bit more beautiful and better because you have been in it. My best wishes go with you all! 89 M iss Berry developed her typewriting technique at Burdett College . . . Was awarded a gold medal for proficiency and speed . . .

Fortunately for high-schoolers, each serves as a sort of general information bureau and friend in need , but their numerous other duties are not so well-known. Miss Marion Berry is personal secretary to Headmaster Ringer. Besides the office routine, this position involves preparation of local and state reports, C.E.E.B. applications, and graduation details. She assists with the master program of the school and- acts as N.Y.A. time-keeper. One of her most important and pleasant tasks is to interpret the school to all new students and to parents. Our registrar, Miss Beatrice Finn, is one of the first persons a new B.H.S. student contacts, since it is she who ascertains the stand- ing of all entering pupils. Those well-known folders recording our every success and misdeed are under her supervision. Moreover, Miss Finn completes all scholastic and college-application records. (Ooh — what she knows about you!) Daily we hear the office reports which Miss Miriam Linsky has prepared, but her principal task involves supervision of the attendance of every pupil. Miss Linsky is also school postmistress, directing slips and letters to their destination. Miss Mary Finnegan, besides memorizing the P.F.T. ' s of every pupil, arranges all varsity, junior varsity, and freshman sports. The physical education staff in the Elementary Schools also depends on her for assistance in planning schedules.

Mr. Albert Seamans in the capacity of housemaster has contributed much in the way of valuable and timely guidance to the students under his supervision. During the experience of many of the students, Roberts House headmasterships have also been capably handled by Messrs. Willis Gifford and Chester Downing. Miss E. Lenore PlacTdo cooperates with Mr. Seamans in acting as faculty adviser to the house council. This council, which is another step forward in the high school theory of student self-government, functions essentially on the democratic principle, for the members are elected by popular vote of their fellow students. This council meets twice a month and takes as its specified aim a fervent desire to create a wholesome understanding and relationship between the student body and faculty. It handles whatever financial matters may arise in connection with house affairs. Clifford Fitzpatrick as house president auto- matically heads this representative body while Jean McCracken, Ruth Hill, and Richard High in the capacities of vice-president, secretary, and treasurer respectively hold places on this select board. Other representatives to this illustrious group are Charles Johnson, Dan O ' Neil, Hugh Cassidy, Carl Wesson, and Carl Berger. Scholars, athletes, ladies, and gentlemen have been nurtured by this house and its leaders, and, having been thus fostered, have given unselfishly of their talents for the betterment of their fellows. Therefore if the work of this house is effected as successfully in the future as if appears that it will be according to present indications, a model citizen of great personal capabilities will be the con- tribution of Roberts House to the community at large.

For the past four years Lincoln Housers have been forging forward and their achievements both in scholarship and extra-curricula activities are numerous. Mr. Benjamin D. Roman has been housemaster except for a brief interim when Mr. Alfred Seamans replaced him. This popular adviser is proud of Lincoln House and its uniformly good record. The house has an inspiring heritage in the name of William H. Lincoln, a member of the School Committee from 1873 to 1898. He is recalled as a tall, broadshouldered figure with white hair — a charming businessman who made frequent visits to the school and to the teachers and children he loved so well. It was through his influence that many progressive ideas were developed in Brookline. He encouraged instruction in manual-training and domestic science. His name is perpetuated by the Lincoln medals presented at our graduation and by the Lincoln Grammar School. This rich heritage has provided Lincoln House with a goal to which it should aspire. At the termination of the first year, seventy- five pupils had gained a position on the Honor Roll, and eleven of these had all A s. Now at the conclusion of four years, seventy- eight pupils have done credit to themselves, to Lincoln House, and to the high school by earning scholastic honors. To the monthly meetings of the Lincoln House Council go representatives for each homeroom. At these gatherings policies are determined and suggestions concerning house activities are discussed. Lincoln House has chosen Robert Berman as chief executive for three years, and during the past season he has led the senior class. The chair of the vice-president has been filled by Betty Rogers, Howard Bailey, and Clifton Hill; class notes were kept in turn by Marion Carter, Betty McCabe, and Jane Crowell. James Burnes and Joseph Miller collected the class dues and during the senior year Andrew Weeks was house president. Besides Bob Berman, Lincoln House has contributed Howard Bailey and Betty McCabe to the roster of graduating class officers.

It looks interesting Even the alcoves furnish places of refuge 100 Among the rooms situated in the John C. Packard wing of the building can be found the members of Akers House, those students who have reached their third year of academic pursuit in Brookline High School. Akers House derives its name from that of our late headmaster, Mr. Winefred Akers. Mr. Akers served as headmaster here from September 1913 until June 1933. Under his administration many changes and improvements were established. Among these are the three-fold system of student government — the Teacher-Stu- dent Council which recently was renamed the School Council, the Marshal Force, and the Court of Justice — the legislative, the execu- tive, and the judicial departments respectively. The Honorary Society, Alpha Pi, had its beginning while Mr. Akers was headmaster of Brookline High. Vestigia nulla retrorsum or Never a backward step is the standard that Akers House members have set for themselves. They have endeavored with much success to step ahead unchecked during the five years existence of the House. From the time of the adop- tion of the House System in 1934, Miss Anna Liden of the Mathematics Department has served continuously as housemaster of the group. Leading the light blue and gold banners of the group is Daniel Cad iff , president of the body for the past year. Dan Cadiff succeeded James Shanahan, the president during the previous year. President of the House when its members were freshmen was Frank Mahin. Grace Lupton has been vice-president for three years in succession, while Elinor Applebaum has held the position of secretary for three consecutive terms. Last fall Lincoln Jewett was elected to the office of treasurer, which was vacated by Dan Cadiff. Meeting weekly, the legislative department of Akers House, a council composed of thirty representatives from the various home rooms, has planned a distinctive program for its members. In early January an assembly period featuring the talent of individual stu- dents was presented. At the beginning of May, a promenade dance was sponsored by the group under the chairmanship of Leonard Geller. The affair was held in the Devotion School assembly hall to the music of Glenn Allan, whose music had been featured at Dramatics. Assisting Akers House as faculty advisers are those teachers who have come into considerable contact with its pupils: Mr. Fitzgerald, Miss McCabe, and Miss Robertson. With its contribution to a fine academic standard and to extra-curricula activities, Akers House has distinguished itself.

Webber Packard House, alias the sophomores, with Aim High ' for a motto is efficiently fulfilling every aim. The name and spirit of Dr. John C. Packard should certainly guide the house to finer things. As head of our Science Department for over forty years, this scholarly gentleman designed the B.H.S. laboratories that bear his name. Wesleyan University and Tufts Col- lege have conferred honorary degrees upon Doctor Packard for his educational achievement. With the affection that comes to one who has served long and well, Brookline citizens honor his fine personality. The Packard Council is made up of twenty-four members representing the four hundred and fifty-one students in the class. At bi-monthly meetings, this group discusses common problems. To demonstrate its full roster of talent, Packard House has produced an assembly which proved a definite success. Equally successful has been the collection of class dues, and Treasurer Shirley Gordon had to count quickly as the quarters rolled in this winter. Perhaps it was a new system of collection that urged the sophomores over the top. Besides Shirley, the officers are president, George Hibbard; vice-president, Margaret Dopp; secretary, Dorothy Atlas. The twelve Packard House homerooms are scattered over the school at present, since their original location disappeared with the fire. However, perhaps next year the house will be reunited in the new building, and if its present rate of growth continues, the homerooms will be more in number. No less than sixty new students have entered Packard House since last year. Mr. Corcoran, former B.H.S. science teacher, was the first Packard housemaster. After a year, however, he left to become prin- cipal of the Pierce School. At present, Mr. Alfred Webber is the gentleman in charge of the second-year class, a position which makes him guide in all sophomore problems. A biology teacher, this versatile housemaster plays ON a trombone, plays WITH his three-year-old twins, and considers his house one of the five best in the school.

And they shall enter as lambs and go forth as lions. In this manner did four hundred and fifty-five freshmen gather under the auspices of Shailer House and Miss Mary W. Sawyer, who utilizes the almost uncanny ability to solve and smooth out the countless problems of bewildered youth. Sha Her House takes its name from the Reverend William H. Shailer, a Brookline minister, who was prominent in establishing the first high school in Brookline while he served for fifteen years on the School Committee. Encouraged by the prestige of such a public spirited citizen, already several members have distinguished themselves in the numerous activities which are open to them. Six students have attained highest scholastic honors during one or more of the three quarters: Edna Morrison, Dorothy O ' Hearn, Jane Walsh, Helen Wieseberg, Paul Perkins, and Morton Swartz. Four of this group s topnotchers are Paul Perkins, popular and versatile president; Vincent Leahy, athletic vice-president; Sa y Willis, vivacious secretary; and Walter Cooper, busy with the amounts in his official capacity of treasurer. By choosing them as representatives to the School Council Shailer House has honored June Walsh and Paul Perkins, who wins the membership as president of his house. Thirteen freshmen will be on marshal duty next year. The lucky and des erving ones are Paul Perkins, James Feinberg, Vincent Leahy, Eric Rosenthal, Jane Walsh, Thomas Taylor, George Flashenberg, Peggy Keith, Freida Omansky, David Small, Sally Willis, Morton Swartz, Richard Grenier. These busy people have wasted no time in entering into high school life, and all extra-curricula activities find their membership aided and abetted by the newcomers. Morton Swartz, Joe Russell, Edna Morrison, and Paul Perkins are the proud possessors of mem- bership cards from the French Club. Leon Hatzell has been prominent at Chess Club tournaments. Sylvia Mann, Barbara McKenzie, and Eldon Cohen show promising dramatic talent. The Camera and Science Clubs as well as the Band, Orchestra, Glee Club, and Debating Team are also of great interest to these youngsters. Special mention should be given to Freida Omansky who won for our school the Fourth Annual Prize given by the Museum of Fine Arts. This was an essay written on the Minoan Snake Goddess, which was on exhibit in the Museum. Freida is also the Shailer House executive to the Girls ' League executive staff. We think that this constitutes a mighty fine record. It has been hard for the freshmen to accustom themselves to such a new life, and we acknowledge the fine job which the members of Shailer House have done. Good luck to them! 113 Room 212: 21 j ROW I: Burns, Bronstein, Abrams, Berman, Burdick, Miss Green ' .hields, Miss Nickerson, Bell, Caldwell, Birmingham, Baker, Brin.

MacDonald The Junior Department, a stepping-stone between grammar school and regular freshman courses, presents a type of work found in no other group. Individual training is given to two score boys and girls in the basic fields of English, mathematics, history and science. Mr. MacDonald and Mr. Birkett guide the boys through the devious ways of such subjects; the feminine section is under Miss Day. Many of the students attend classes included in the usual freshman curriculum in addition to their own special training; all enjoy the high school assemblies and similar functions. The philosophy of the teaching given this group lies in allowing each member to work at his own speed according to methods used in many small private schools. Thus the students progress smoothly and enjoy their studies more than they would in ordinary classes. Standardized tests are given at intervals to regulate advancement. In addition to training its regular students, the Junior Department is always willing to serve the rest of the school. Those having difficulty with certain subjects may find their problems made easy here. Here also a boy from Germany and another from Spain, now attending B.H.S., were aided in mastering the English language. We are glad these Juniors are with us, and we are proud of the work their able teachers are helping them accomplish.

Deal I noli lk Department Miss Alice H. Spaulding Have you ever stopped to realize how many and how diversified are the activities under the guidance of the English Department? Headed by Miss Alice Howard Spalding, eighteen teachers work diligently to make this one of the largest and most important groups in the school. Naturally, we have excellent courses in English literature and composition which teach us the fundamentals and intracacies of our own language. While this classwork Is essential and well deserving of recognition, the supplementary work proves the true scope of the department. Today, after much plotting and planning, an advanced course is now given by Miss Celina Lewis for fifth-year students and post- graduates. Here lies the opportunity for study of phases of literature, which cannot ordinarily be covered in the regular four-year course. A very careful study is made of Greek mythology, which gives the students a background so that they may better appreciate their reading. The first half of the year is also given over to an extensive discussion of English literature, history, art, and customs. The second half-year deals with the same subjects from the American point of view. Annually the English Department holds a Prize Essay Writing Contest. Contributions take the form of an essay ' , a short story, or a poem, not more than fifteen hundred words and not less than six hundred words in length. Candidates have three hours to do their writing, referring only to such notes as may be condensed on one sheet of paper. However, material may be planned beforehand. The literary features of the MURIVIAN are under the advisorship of a member of the English Department, Miss Eleanor R. Johnson. Each October, seniors are selected for the honor of working on the book. Actual assembling of the material is entirely a student project. The chairman establishes a calendar for the dates when assignments are due, appoints committees necessary to complete the assign- ments, and sees that the book goes to press the first of May. The students themselves lay out the book, designing each page and apportioning the proper space for illustrations and for copy. They arrange the schedule for taking pictures, assemble the literary ma- terial, and edit it. The cover design and line cuts are student work. Since amateur photographs play an important part in the book, student photographers not only take these pictures but they also develop them. A true record of the entire school year, the MURIVIAN has become a vital part of school life. The English Club, in the words of its faculty adviser Mr. Trask Wilkinson, ' attempts to foster creative writing, to stimulate thinking in terms of literary background, and to gather for good fellowship in literary pursuits. At the first of its several monthly meetings Hilda Abrams was elected president; Robert Lunblad, secretary-treasurer; Edith Small, program chairman; and Grace Lupton, refresh- ment chairman. Mr. Richard Hill Wilkinson, prominent short story writer, spoke at the second meeting about the trials and tribulations Mr. Arthur W. Flemings Mr. Arthur R. Hammond Mr. Homer Harbour Mrs. Annette B. Harvey 120 and the extreme joy of being a writer. He gave some excellent pointers on the technique of short stories. A very charming guest was Mrs. George Allison, who told of some of her experiences as an actress on the legitimate stage and also in the movies. The Christ- mas meeting fostered home talent with contributions by Hilda Abrams, Edith Small, Emma Naranjo, Betty McCabe, Marysia Chmielinski, Barbara Bechtold, The Pi n a n sk is, Dick Johnson, and Bob Lundblad. Mr. Ralph Totman, at the next meeting, told of his travels to Italy England, France, and Germany. Interesting information about amateur photography was imparted by Mr. George Stetson. May 13 completed the year with a trip to Salem and the House of Seven Gables. Likewise under the auspices of the English Department is the SAGAMORE, our newspaper. Sol Levine, as editor-in-chief until February 1938, was assisted by a galaxy of associate editors classified as follows: managing, Bob Berman; assignment, Jean Pinanski; sport, Joe Miller; feature, Joan Pinanski and Spike Rabinowitz; advertising, Dick Feffer; and circulation managers, Len Rubin and James English Club ROW I: Castelli, Grass, Chmielinski, Miss Lewis, Small, Abrams, Lundblad, Mr. Wilkinson, Lupton, Applebaum, Cohen, Ross.

This group has certainly succeeded in publishing a weekly newspaper chock full of interesting accounts of school life. Each mont a magazine section provides a vehicle for literary expression of a more, or less, serious nature. The staff is advised by Miss Dea Mr. Flemings, and Mr. Williams. Brain storm of the staff this year was a mammoth carnival featuring games and entertainments of every conceivable description The most attractive of these seemed to be the ring toss, but penny tossing, nail driving, weight guessing, cross-word puzzles, and tb chamber of horrors were also very popular. There were also dancing, an amateur show, and two dramatic skits; one, a burlesque of . melodrama; the other, a burlesque of the staff itself. About twelve hundred people, student body and outsiders, were at hand to join in the gala festivities and their enthusiasm am cooperation were certainly appreciated. With this and many other clever features the SAGAMORE has succeeded in putting itself across to the students with a bang.

Their tremendous task is somewhat lightened by a group of fifty boys and girls who act as a library staff. These students voluntarily devote one period a week to general library work such as stamping, receiving, mending, and cataloguing books and magazines. To become better acquainted with litera+ure and music they meet once a month. Their officers are Phyllis Seidenberg, president; Alvan Rubin, vice-president; Marvin Gasster, secretary, and Eleanor Garland, treasurer. On November 15, the Staff put on an assembly in recognition of National Book Week in which they showed a parade of books from the Egyptian parchments to present day. Miss Parker of the Art Department gave a very interesting travel talk in December. The highlight of the following month was a Twelfth Night party, while February brought a Travel Round Table. In March a literary and musical program was presented by the members of the staff, and the April open meeting with its one-act play closed a happy year for the group. These, then, are some of the activities which look to the English Department for leadership. While each is sufficient unto itself, they all work together for a common cause, to further enjoyment, appreciation, and knowledge of our English language. Our hats are doffed to the entire department for its versatility and for the progress that it is constantly making. Library Staff ROW I: Geran, Miss LaPointe, Mrs. Siebens, Garland, Rubin, P.

Speech Department The Speech Department under the direction of Miss Louise Hannon has two aims in its program: to train the students to speak the English language intelligently and to correct faulty voice placement and speech defects. With such a purpose in mind, speech classes feature important breathing exercises in the elementary lessons and declamations or dramatic sketches in the more advanced, work. The Dramatic Society has been organized exclusively by students who take speech or who have studied it at sometime. This past year has seen Betty McCabe, as president, and Bob Lundblad as secretary-treasurer. The Dramatic Society presented three one-act plays on December 10, 1937. The first was a comedy, THE TRYSTING PLACE with Nat Wood and Sally Goulston in the lead and Earle Hoffman, Bob Lundblad, Rita Spellman, Norma Friedman, and Spike Rabinowitz in the supporting roles. The second presentation was another comedy entitled THE TANTRUM, in which Joe Miller and Betty McCabe were the stellar characters, supported by Claire Caverly, Semah Michelson, Dick Johnson, Bob Ulin, Barbara Webber, Marion Daniels, John Kornfeld, and Dave Feingold. The last was of serious note, THE MAN WHO WOULDN T GO TO HEAVEN. In this performance, George Bowditch played the dissenter, while Bob Raymer appeared as an impressive angel. The other roles were taken by Phyllis Rowe, Bob Lundblad, Margaret Ragan, Judy Shocket, Harriet Ross, Claire Rabinovitz, Bob Beare, Page Lauriat, and Kenny Rosenberg. Perhaps the biggest social event of the school year is Scholarship Dramatics, a play and dance presented annually for the benefit of the Boys Scholarship Fund. The presentation this year was an English Comedy, LEAVE IT TO PSMITH, written by Ian Hay and P. G. Wodehouse. Culminating an intensive advertising campaign led by Hugo Frank and Mr. Clarke, two performances, February 10 and I I , were well received by the audience.

Bob Raymer supervised the dance following the evening show where Glen Allen s Rhythm Barons were featured amid a Valentine ' s Day setting. March 15, the J. Murray Kay Prize Speaking was presented after several weeks of intensive preparation by the ten participants chosen by Miss Hannon. This competition presents the foremost dramatists of the school. Judged by men and women whose experience in speech work is widely recognized, Joe Miller and Margaret Ragan were chosen winners of the boys and girls respectively in this year ' s contest. Joe interpreted a humorous yet intricate piece from Booth Tarkington ' s well-known SEVENTEEN, while Margaret offered a clever portion from VICTORIA REGINA written by Lawrence Housman. Honorable mention was gained by Normie Stearns and Betty McCabe. The other competitors were Ann Chamberlain, Earle Hoffman, Norma Freedman, Ruth Cohen, Bob Raymer, and Bob Lundblad. Normie Stearns gave Daudet ' s THE LAST LESSON; Betty McCabe, Edna St. Vincent Millay s INTERIM. Ann Chamberlain presented PYGMA- LION by George Bernard Shaw; Earle Hoffman, ALL QUIET ON THE WESTERN FRONT; Norma Freedman, Tennyson ' s RIZPAH; Ruth Cohen, THE TAMING OF THE SHREW; Bob Raymer, MINUET by Louis A. Parker, and Bob Lundblad, TWELFTH NIGHT. Resolved: that ..... constitues the greater part of the vocabulary found at the monthly meetings of the Debating Society. Here Joe Miller presides over the debating enthusiasts, Sol Levine takes an occasional note on the minutes of the meeting, and Hilda Abrams exercises an influence over the treasury department. For- tunately, the society has been able to organize several different teams for both inter-scholastic and intra-club debates. A girls ' team, consisting of Edith Small, Sally Goulston, Marion Kopel, and Hilda Abrams, faced a team from Girls ' Latin High early in the year over the minimum wage and maximum hour question. The Child Labor Amendment controversy was also debated among the members. Billy Hurwitz, Page Lauriat, and Nat Cohen pitted themselves against Bob Ulin Bob Gold man, and Stan Goff in this match. A first and a second team were organized for interscholastic debates in the spring. Active on these teams were Eliot Kraft, Dick Johnson, Joe Miller, Sol B. Levine, Bob Goldman, Page Lauriat, Bob Ulin, Spike Rabinowitz, Nat Cohen, Bill Hurwitz, George Flashenberg, and Bob Berman. 125 Mes Amis — The largest modern language department of the school is the French Department. Most college preparatory students and many non-college students as well take from two to four years of French in Brookline High. Aside from its academic value, the popu- larity of the language as a subject for study is strong among the pupils. The personnel of the department includes Miss Louise Gambrill, who has been at its head for many years and whose study in this language has been very extensive. Also on the staff are Miss Geneva Chamberlain, Miss Hilda C. Donahue, Miss Eliza- beth K. Paine, Miss Aline Perrin, Miss Marguerita Pfleghaar, Miss Jane Ricker, Mrs. Kathlene Jacques, and Miss Kathryn O ' Brien, who has been on leave of absence this past year.

The French Club, one of the oldest organizations of its kind in the school, is isponsored by the French Department and is one of its leading activities. This :Organization offers its members greater means of appreciating the beauty of French h : story and culture. Membership requirements are such that the club is made up of the best students and of those who really are interested in the French language. Pupils of the upper houses must maintain a grade of B in order to be enrolled as members, while first-year pupils must have attained a grade of A by the end of first semester. At the monthly meetings, the student mem- [ bers present plays, monologues, recitations, and other forms of entertainment. Oftentimes the organization has the privilege of listening to some prominent guest speaker especially visitors from France. The officers during the past year have been Marion Kopel, president; Robert Lund- b ad, vice-president; Leah Wolf, secretary; and David Fein- gold, treasurer. The faculty advisers were Misses Ricker, Chamberlain, and Pfleghaar. The French at work — in silence In the past two years, the French Department has or- ganized a new group, more exclusive than the French Club, which is open to pupils of highest academic standing who have gone beyond the study of elementary French alone. Two years ago, LAtelier, as it is called, was established as an honorary branch of the French Club for the purpose of offering to the students a better knowledge of conversationa French and a more intimate view of French customs. Mem- bership in L Atelier is limited to third-and fourth-year pupils who are receiving A or B and who have shown a specia aptitude for French. Meetings are held at the homes of the various members and there the conversation is restricted to French. At the meetings there are games and songs in French as well as conversation on all subjects. In this way LAtelier h as been able to offer more advantages to a smal group of outstanding students than the French Club is able to offer with its membership of over one hundred.

Lenore Placido Miss Rebekah Wood Dr. Albert Shepard Spanish Department The true spirit of old Spain is dearly cherished in the work of the Spanish Department. Not only does it strive to acquaint its own students with a fundamental knowledge of Spanish history and literature, but it has also presented two programs of major importance to stimulate interest in these subjects and to foster a better understanding of the Spanish race. The Pan American Day Pageant held in Roberts Auditorium in nineteen hundred and thirty-five was a form of entertainment relatively new here. Given under the able guidance of Miss Lula Adams, it presented the early history of Spanish America in picturesque tableaux, displaying a wonderful array of costumes which were typical of many of the Spanish speaking countries. We can still remem- ber the interpretation of the Mexican Hat Dance given by that vivacious young lady, Virginia Stanislaus, and her dashing partner, Bill Smith. Last year the Spanish Day Fiesta, held to commemorate Pan American Day, was an outstanding presentation. The program con- sisted of a play titled LA MORISCA, which depicted the history of the Arabs in Spain. The memory of Yose Cuetara, who took the part of the romantic Moorish Hero, Abenamar, still lingers on. Bessie Argus made a vivid impressi on as the dark-skinned little moorish captive, and Jack Churchville, the president of the Spanish Club last year, played his part excellently as the white lover of La Morisca. As a separate feature, C ' audia Bowers sang La Paloma in a true Spanish fashion. Because of the fine spirit and enthusiasm which Miss Adams put into all her work during her many years in the department, Brookline High School is one of the few schools in Massachusetts to take a deep interest in all things Spanish. Since the retirement of Miss Adams, Miss Wood has been the very able head of the department. She is assisted by Miss Lenore Placido and by Dr. Albert Shepard. Even more than to teach the language itself, the aim of the Spanish Department is to create a greater interest and understand- ing of the countries where Spanish is spoken, namely Spain, Mexico, Central and South America. Therefore students become acquainted not only with Spanish grammar but also with Spanish history, literature and art, music and customs. Throughout the entire course, the Try to top that one 128 The Spanish are here — The lesson for tomorrow — works of many of the most prominent Spanish authors are read and pupils acquire a background for English grammar and vocabulary discussed. Having become familiar with this foreign and may better appreciate the literature and art of all language, lands. From the time of the fire, the Spanish Department has been located in the Manual Training Building. Despite its great losses during this calamity, it is gradually regaining its innumerable possessions with the aid of the Pan American Union in Washington, which has contributed posters, booklets, and pictures. El Circul o Espanol is an outstanding feature of the Spanish Department. Its aim is to stimulate deeper interest in everything con- nected with Spain and to offer a greater opportunity for conversation in the Spanish tongue. Any student having a grade of B ' or better may enter the club after his second year of study. The program of the Club is planned by the Junta Directeur, or Executive Committee, which consists mainly of the entertainment, the hospitality, and the refreshment committees. The Club meets on the third Wednesday of every month when dramatic productions, moving pictures, musical programs, and lectures are given. This year, the meetings of El Circulo Espanol have been very interesting and varied. A scene from DON JUAN was presented by Dorothy Maginnis and Barbara Taylor, who put all the zest of Spanish lovers into their words. A part from the play Rosina es Fragil by the Quintero brothers was given by Emma Naranjo, Ruth Liberman, Ruth Cohen, and Mary Cahill. For the Christmas meeting the Club members had a grand time trying to break the Pinata, which is a candy- filled jug suspended from the ceiling. In the middle of the year the Pan American Union in Washington was kind enough to lend the club some slides with their full explanation, and these were presented in lecture form. The officers of the Spanish Club are: Emma Naranjo, president; Dorothy Maginnis, vice-president; Mary Louise Cahill, secretary- treasurer. Miss Lenore Placido is the club adviser. During the past two years, the club membership has increased greatly, thus showing the ever increasing interest in the Spanish language. Spanish Club ROW I: Friedstein, E.

Although the department started out with a mere handful of students, today it is a vital factor in school life. The German language, which is essentially important in many different fields of culture and science, is being studied exten- sively in high schools and colleges. B.H.S. students have the advantage of listening t o this language being spoken in the pure accents of a native German. During the Christmas assembly, we had the opportunity of hearing Mr. Friedland speak in his native tongue about the manner of celebrating holidays in his country, and we were able to notice how pleasing well-spoken German is. Mr. Friedland, carrying the weight of the department alone, teaches the language and acquaints the student with a fundamental knowledge of Germany and its people. Die Deutshe Gesellschaft is likewise under the direction of Mr. Friedland. This organization not only provides social gatherings, but also gives members an opportunity to converse in German. It is composed of students of the second and third years who desire membership. During the year there are six meetings of the club, but at the Christmas party all classes are invited to attend. Every meeting of the club offers something different by presenting musical programs, dramatic skits, guest speakers, and various other forms of entertainment. With the recent arrival of several young students from Germany, much has been added to the atmosphere and genuine enjoyment of the club. The president is Adele Friedstein; vice-president, Enid Wilson; secretary, Allen Offen; and treasurer, Richard High. These small, informal meetings are essentially important because they help the student to lose the self-consciousness which usually accompanies the acquiring of a foreign language. The members of the club take advantage of and fully enjoy the opportunity afforded them to converse freely in German and consequently comprehend with greater facility this sonorous language.

Uanacore The Latin Department has long been one of the most important in preparing students for college. The four years of Latin study feature first-year elementaries, Ceasar ' s Gallic Wars, Cicero s speeches, and the poetry of Virgil and Ovid. Mr. William L. Snow is the head of the department, assisted by Miss Vanacore, Miss Perkins, Miss Cooke, Mr. Roman, and Dr. Shepard, a newcomer to the faculty this year. Aside from the primary aim of preparing a pupil for college boards or certificate grades, a new development has taken place in ■ the study of Latin. In his Latin Life and Language class Mr. Snow endeavors to present to those students who end their formal educa- tion with a high school diploma the gifts which the, modern world has received from ancient Greece and Rome. The course is open to those who do not wish to study Latin beyond the second year or do not intend to offer Latin for entrance to college. With the aid of prints, photographs, slides, and individual scrapbooks, Mr. Snow has unfolded the Roman civilization to his class. Librarians have catalogued over sixty books on Roman life. Certain of these are required reading for the course. Mr. Snow hopes that the results of the experiment in Latin Life and Language will justify the permanent incorporation of this course in our curriculum and that it will increase in popularity with incoming students. There is a possibility that some of this work may be included in ail classes. Latin Lite and Language Clast ROW h McLeod, Burke, Taggart, Orde, Potter, Mr. Snow, Greenwood, Joyce, Mann, Trachter.

Hollingworth With eyes toward the future we high-schoolers seek fields of endeavor to which the doors are still open. The quest for work which is exciting and out of the ordinary has been more than satisfactorily answered by the Science Department. It cites with pride the progress made in medicine, in agriculture, and in industry, all of which have been brought about by practical application of science. Consider some of the new technological developments: synthetic rubber, artificial cotton, woolen-like fabric from cellulose, gasolene from coal — all lie in the fascinating realm of chemistry. Physics has improved the science of industry, increased the development of machinery, transportation, architecture, and re- search. Biology, too, has done its part, particularly in cotton raising, fruit and vegetable cultivating, and problems of health and disease. These and many other modern miracles have been realized through science. We have elementary and survey courses in chemistry, physics, biology, and general science which lift the barriers of a world of wonders and which hint of the thrills awaiting those students who carry on their work in college. The pro- gressive faculty, under the guidance of Mr. Leland Hollingworth, constantly impress the students with their glowing presentation of these subjects. Textbook information is supplemented by lectures and experiments. Pupils are fortunate in having extremely well-equipped laboratories, which make doubly fascinating the actual performance of the reactions about which they read or hear. Moreover, the wall cases lining both sides of the John C. Packard Labora- tory always contain exhibits which clarify or add to what knowledge has been Mr. Carroll H. Lowe acquired. Such scientific or popular displays have shown the habitat groups of animals, birds, and fishes; beautifully colored minerals; and examples of ... l,.,, , c „ , ...... . . ' r Miss Hildred E. Robertson working models of various machines. As a matter of fact, everything possible is done which will make students actively interested in science. Biology rooms are filled with beautiful plants, aquaria, and models. During the year, moving pictures are often given to supplement the studies. There is a work shop where teachers and students alike may actually make apparatus and supplies. A dark. room for developing pictures is also at everyone ' s disposal. Realizing that seeing is believing, the department has arranged courses so that subject matter will become a visual reality, thus making science courses increasingly in demand. Mr. Alfred C. Webber Mr. E. Montgomery Wells One of the recent extra-curricula activities of fhe department is the Camera Club, which was started to further the already popular interest in photography and strives to teach the fundamentals of the subject. A complete course under the guidance of Mr. Alfred Webber is presented, which helps the sixty members not only to take good pictures but also to appreciate them. Beginning with the history of photography, the lectures cover some more advanced phase of the study. Usually, the committee on programs selects a mem- ber to investigate and discuss a specific topic, and on several occasions, Mr. Webber has given instruction on the more technical points. There is keen competition among the club members, because the best pic- ture taken during a month is a regular feature of the Sagamore . On the whole, this organization has increased ability to get the best from cameras. i 122 Science Club ROW I: Mr. Holland, Hirshant, Kopel, A. Frledsteln, Mr. Hollingworth, Shoop, Hubbard, Osgood, E.

Such has been the interest stimulated by the Science Department that a Science Club, established a year ago, today boasts of about fifty members. Among the outstanding participants are Merton Hubbard, Joseph Osgood, and Allan Shoop, who serve the club as presi- dent, secretary, and treasurer respectively. Visits to water systems, gas plants, and to centers of other public utilities have emphasized the practical sides of the theoretical studies investigated at meetings. Our would-be Pasteurs and Curies are given every opportunity to perform experiments which are often turned into demonstrations at club gatherings. Such demonstrations dealt with air pressure, chemical and physical combinations, electricity, and light. Lecturers have covered the theories of atoms, electrons, radio, compound forces, lenses, and light waves. This club, in keeping with precedents established by its master department, has really succeeded in making students science-conscious. Studies, which- might so easily be beyond the comprehension of the average boy or girl, have at least been placed within the grasp of all. Therefore a genuine understanding and a beautiful companionship have been attained between teachers and students. Hats off to the Science Department and its clubs! They are certainly well-deserving of your recognition. Camera Club ROW I: Lowe, Kenney, Hayward, Schiller, Schein, Mr. Webber, Wolf, Davidoff, Bernstein, Lyons, Gasster, Adler.

In supporting this standard the personnel has succeeded if the fine reputation which it has justly earned is to be taken as a criterion. Mr. Tyler Kepner heads this department, which includes on its staff Mr. M. Roland Blanchard, Miss Rose D. Bliss, Miss Emma L. Conrad, Miss Jane A. McCabe, Mr. Edward H. Merrill, Mr. August C. Miller, Jr., Mrs. Florence C. Nasmyth, Miss Miriam A. Nichols, Mr. Wendell F. Smith, Miss Dorothy Taft, Mr. Ralph Totman, and Miss Gertrude Wadsworth. Miss Anne Reynolds Is the department secretary. In its progress the department has constantly held itself open to con- - structive criticism from the student body. Students have been invited to attend group discussions and through an informal exchange of ideas attempts have been made to solve problems arising from the Social Studies curriculum. A vital point this year was a revision of the teaching of the college course in American history. The department encourages this independence of thought, believing it to be essential in the developing of citizens possessed of a genuine com- munity responsibility. This retention of personal individualism is of vital import In preserving the spirit and form of democratic government. In March, Grace Lupton, a student in the department, spoke before a group of prominent educators assembled at Harvard University, on the subject, What can the genera! high school do to develop active civic consciousness on the part of its graduates? Thus she presented the student s point of view. Recognizing the fact that history is being made in contemporary events, the department urges the students to, read newspapers and other periodicals Intelligently. The non-college course in American history includes in its pro- gram a regular library period of Reading for Fun , during which time the student through the reading of supplementary literature, may broaden his acquaintance with the subject under class discussion. Miss Rose D. Bliss Miss Jane A. McCabe Mr. Edward H. Merrill Mr. August C. Miller Mrs. Florence G. Nasmyth Students enrolled in civics are given an op- portunity to put into practice the principles of good citizenship which this course instills. They are taught the machinery of government which permits this nation to function and the part which they will play as citizens in later life. At the time of the town elections, the civics classes held a concurrent election, voting for the same candidates as did their elders. There was present a gravity that did credit to the youthful voters. Field trips make students of history, geog- raphy, and civics realize that their courses of study are concerned with concrete subjects. The metropolitan area affords an excellent op- portunity for visiting points of historical end civic interest. Miss Anne Reynolds 134 American government in a board shell Giving the signals for an A paper He who originated the axiom, A penny saved is a penny earned, ' was unconsciously advancing the basis on which our Bank was established, and has flourished since 1933. Working on this sound principle it has won a faith- ful following among the student body, who realize that only they themselves are the chief beneficiaries of that which the bank has to offer. They have worked diligently to insure its success. Its specific aim, however, is a desire to encourage voluntary savings by as many students as wish to participate and to promote an active financial growth in their behalf. Thus, by in- stilling a desire to save wisely, the bankers hope that this habit will be carried over through the years, and so thrift and sagacious economy will be- come a vital part of the individual ' s behavior in later life. As proof that the students support this organization, the record for the year 1936-1937 may be offered. Over this period 7,450 individual deposits were made with a total yearly deposit resulting in approximately $6,000. Mr. M.

Atticks We are definitely looking for superior individuals: first, those who possess out- standing scholastic ability combined with good character and leadership: second, good scholastic ability combined with a large amount of common sense, judgment, and an ability to get along with others . ' 1 These are the basic requirements for a successful business person as stated in a letter to our Commercial Department from an important business concern. In these days of keen competition in ev ery field, think how advantageous it is that graduates of courses under the supervision of the Cqmmercial Department are sufficiently well trained to apply for responsible positions and fulfill the aforementioned requirements with little need for further study in business schools. Just as important as the expert training received in stenography, typing, bookkeeping, business training, business law, and economic education is the ability acquired to master any conceivable machine found in modern offices. The intricate manipulation of such instruments as the Burrough ' s Calculator, Monroe Calculator, Comptometer, Ediphone, dictaphone, add- ing machines, bookkeeping machines, and the mimeographs, as well as various systems of filing are carefully studied. Under the guidance of Mr. Kelsey C. Atticks, head of the Commercial Depart- ment and adviser on teaching of penmanship in all Brookline public schools, com- mercial students have made themselves indispensable to the school at large. The work which they so kindly do for members of the faculty is divided into three main branches which are: duplicating, in the charge of Miss Emma Poland; stenography, under Miss Grace Hamblin ' s guidance: and typing, under the supervision of Miss Jane Berriman. The primary object of this work is its educational value to the pupil; incidentally, it saves much time for the teachers and considerable money for the Town of Brookline. The work of the Central Treasury for all school activities is handled by the Com- mercial Department. One pupil keeps a complete set of books and each month pre- pares a reconciliation of the bank account and a statement showing receipts, pay- 136 Miss Grace A. Hamblin Miss Anna L. Maguire Readin ' , ' rit ' n ' , and ' rithmetic ments, and balance of the account of each organization of the school. Two students type vouchers for all bills to be paid, have them signed by the faculty advisers of the organizations and by the principal of the school, and write checks for the vouchers that have been properly signed. The responsibility taken by these pupils and the type of work they do make this project very valuable business experience for them. The treasurer of all such work is Mr. Atticks; the bookkeeper, Irene M. Campbell, the typists, Eleanor E. Garland and Robert Welsh. In addition to this work, teachers of commercial subjects are always very glad to instruct the treasurers of various organizations in a good bookkeeping system. As a matter of fact, the Commercia Department helps the student body in innumerable ways. Participants in all commercial courses become accustomed to think guickly and clearly, to take orders cheerfully and willingly, besides obtaining a first-hand impression of the atmosphere and conditions of a modern business office. Moreover, even persons not in any way connected with this branch of school work may receive advice or guidance for their difficulties. The extremely important problem of all student employment is also efficiently handled by the Commercial Department. Mr. Christian Ehnes has charge of boys positions which do not reguire commercial training; stenographic positions are under Miss Hamblin; and Miss Emma Poland takes care of all other placements. Each year ' arge numbers of our students are placed in offices of businesses or stores demanding efficiently trained workers. Concentration is a virtue, but who ca possess it? Type, type, type — the girls are typing Many students become interested in law through the study of Business Law and Economics, a required course in the Commercial Curriculum. By the study of economics, a pupil learns the three essentials of production, which are land, labor, and capital, and studies them so that he may have a better knowledge of the business world when he seeks employment. Business Law treats the validity of contracts, of negotiable instruments, and many other business necessities. Mr. Kelsey C. Atticks and Miss Jane Berriman, a graduate of law school, teach these subjects to the senior pupils of the Clerical and Stenographic Curriculums. Rhythm is my business 137 Mathematics department Mr. Ralph D. McLeary Mr. Ralph McLeary, a newcomer to Brookline High, heads this group of teachers who endeavor to guide the steps of our students in the correct and precise paths and by-ways of Euclidian philosophy. The staff consists of seven other teachers: Miss Madeline I. Ander- son, who has been on leave of absence since February to study at Columbia University: Mr. Harold Bates, hockey coach and director of the Marshal Force: Miss Marian W. Bates, also on leave of absence for the past half-year; Miss Helen Collins, a faculty adviser for the Girls ' League; Mr. Thomas E. Fitzgerald, coach of the baseball squad; Miss Anna Liden, head of Akers House; and Miss Florence G. Perkins. Mrs. Katherine Ginty and Mr. Ira Creelman have been substitutes for the absent teachers. Courses in algebra, elementary and advanced, plane and solid geometry and trigonometry are all included on the mathematical menu offered by the school and consumed with avaricious delight in one form or another by the majority of students. Under the leadership cf Mr. McLeary, a man of interesting and progressive ideas, the staff of the department is reorganizing the general program of activities to meet various, present-day requirements and to bring the achievement in mathematical courses to a higher level. The second year ' s now devoted largely to algebra with geometry the main feature of the third-year course. During the fourth year solid geometry, trigonome- try, and elementary analysis are offered to meet the requirements of the Gamma Examination. hough no student may discover how to trisect an angle, nevertheless each one may have the benefit of a scientific training in logical reasoning and precision, attainable only in part in any other field of study. Furthermore, the true aim of the department is not merely + o teach the student the fundamental truths and laws of geometry and algebra but to develop the pupil s mind to think clearly, to learn how to recognize true values, and to act logically and correctly. With such a purpose in view the department has been seeking to develop a program of mental activity that will be a challenge to the mind of each pupil. Each year a prize is awarded to the leading student in the Mathematics Department. This prize is one of the six William H. Lincoln medals which are awarded annually at graduation. The winner is the third-year mathematics student who obtains the highest grade in a special examination in algebra and geometry. Nea r y a thousand students are enrolled each year in mathematics, most of whom find the subject grows more interesting from year to year. I ne majority cf these pupils take three years of mathematics. A few, especially in the Scientific Curriculum, take a fourth year. n th s Age of Science one finds a knowledge of high school mathematics a valuable tool to assist in understanding the environment which man has changed so much and will doubtless in the future change in ways yet undreamed of by the present generation. Miss Marion W. Bates Miss Helen S. Co tins Miss Anna R. Liden 138 Art Department Miss Faith J. Hale Miss Francenia J. Horn Miss Marion W. Parker Two hundred art students seek competent preparation for advanced training and commercial work and also elect these cultural courses to enhance their appreciation of a beautiful world. Indeed all aims may be satisfied in a department which presents comprehen- sive courses in fine arts, free-hand drawing, art appreciation, interior decorating, and household art. This instruction is in the hands of Miss Marion Parker, head of the Art Department for many years. Miss Horn and Miss Hale, now instructors in the department, are among Miss Parker s former students. Recently the Mary C. Thurston award, in memory of the former department head, has been presented at graduation. This award, conferred by Miss Parker, goes to a cooperative senior who has been a member of the department four years and who shows unusual artistic ability and scholastic achievement. The Lincoln medal is given annually to a senior taking Art whose work in this subject is judged to be the best by professional artists. These artists are most valuable to all organizations. Visible proof of their helpfulness decorates many walls where Girls League and dramatic events are colorfully announced. The Carnival committee and language clubs, too, have turned to the Art Department for posters proclaiming their activities. Frequent exhibitions of class work, both intricate and lovely, ' attract us to the popular, third-floor hallway. Every year, art students participate in diversified projects. First-year classes design posters, the most distinctive of which are entered in the annual contest sponsored by the Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. The S. P. C. A. often chooses winners from Brookline. Trips to the studios of local craftsmen are enjoyed as embryonic Rembrandts are initiated into the realm of art. During the Thanksgiv- ing and Christmas periods, pupils design over one hundred menu covers which add a note of cheer to many holiday dinner trays in the Soldiers ' Hospital. Former students of the Art Department have found success in various branches cf commercial work. Gifted alumni are now engaged in teaching art, in designing, in advertising and in other fields of opportunity. This past season was marked by an exhibition at the Public Library showing the achievements of Edna Hibel, 34 and Edward Flatley, 37. Both exhibitors are former Thurston award winners. At the same showing, which took place in April, the work of many students in B. H. S. and in the grammar schools was presented and was well received. This year the following students were winners in the S.P.C.A. Contest: First Prize; Barbara Wax, Melvin Newman, Hugh Cassidy, Will iam Maynard, Harriet Wolfson, John Delano. Second Prize; Dorothy Israel, Naomi Isaacson, Helen Phelan, Marilyn MacKinnon, Eloise Linscott, Annette Norman, William O ' Donnell, Claudia Bowers. Honorable Mention, Helen Arzamarski, Alzada Small, Sylvia Grandberg, Jane Clayton, Austin Gibbons, Beatrice Montt, Marie Kearns. Miss Parker has molded her courses into an attraction for members of all curriculums. The pleasant rooms of the Art Department welcome everyone, and student skill and talent are carefully developed here. Students of the finer arts 139 Mr. Gordon A.

So said Shakespeare, and we think he ought to- know. He must have been right since almost two hundred musicians at B. H. S. have certainly given much to keep the motions of our spirit from dullness. The Music Department, under the very able direction of Mr. Gordon Joslin, offers opportunities for the study of harmony, musical theory, instruction on instruments, and best of all, a chance to express one ' s inner feelings or sense of rhythm. Musical groups are organized on a progressive basis so that neophytes may gain experience in the House groups and later join the Varsity Orchestra and Band. Smaller combinations have been devised, and they perform for meetings, teas, and similar gatherings. Band ROW I.

At assemblies the strains of their music sway u s from last minute cramming and aid the speakers by creating an audience already enthusiastic. It is at the dramatic affairs and their own musical assembly that this group rises to a climax with concert numbers executed in manner most creditable. There is no need to proclaim the band. Loudly, but melodiously it proclaims itself and loudly we have applauded. Their ranks in white lend fighting spirit to the football games as they form our letters and play our songs. On Class Day, we follow the bandmen In time to vigorous marches. We hear their steady rhythms at assemblies. Yes, the band is a school institution and we love it. Every Monday members of the Glee Club meet together. These songsters have lent a pleasing background to radio broadcasts by the Dramatic Society, and their merry selections increased the spirit at the Christmas assembly. Membership is open to all who like to sing, regardless of previous experience. The Orpheus Ensemble, claiming a dozen of our more advanced musicians, marked its third year of existence with entertainment at concerts of the Brookline Music School and at several other festive occasions. Under Mr. Burbank, they displayed their skill in the audi- torium with an assembly program in February. Glee Club ROW I: Pilkington, Geran, Crane, Easton, Castro, Small, Gale, Sickles, Maxon, Earnst.

Burnham Domestic Science Department Miss Muriel South The Domes tic Science Department, headed by Miss Jackson and assisted by Miss South, offers a very instructive course which is the continuation of work done In the seventh and eighth grades of the grammar schools. This course is, therefore, on a strictly progressive basis. The student learns the fundamentals of cooking in the elementary schools, and when he reaches high school, he is taught more specialized cookery. In the Junior year, pupils study the Nutrition of Foods, a course which is a foundation for those who wish to become dietitians later on. The Chemistry of Foods is usually taken up in the Senior year, but due to the recent fire which destroyed the cooking laboratories, the department has been unable to go ahead with its schedule. This work will be resumed next year when the building is erected with all the necessary equipment. Cooking has become such a popular elective that many boys from the Junior Department have applied for it. The department now consists of one hundred and eleven boys and girls. The students in the Civic Curriculum take four periods of cooking a week, and those in the Social Arts three periods. Domestic Science Club ROW I: Hawes, Collins, Miss South, Spofford, Coleman.

Smith Mechanic Arts Department Mr. Minot A. Bridgham This efficient department has for its objective a desire to aid young men in the realization that manual skill can be employed for personal enjoyment and material reward. Under the direction of Mr. Minot Bridgham pupils are taught the art of building articles, ranging from full-sized automobiles to miniature radios. The department numbers among its instructors Messrs. Guy O. Edmunds, Arthur C. Holton, Everett McIntosh, Carl A. Smith, and Frederick Woodlock. Here countless boys are given thorough and effective training in the industries, and these young men are guided in dealing with many types of manual labor. Some will doubtless become prominent in advancing the progress of the automobile, electrical devices, radio, woodworking, and other allied industries, while others will attest to the intrinsic value of their manual education, even if it merely enables them to mend the leak in the kitchen sink about which wifey has been complaining or else to repair the hole in the front tire of the car. And thus having spent long hours over a workbench, solving numerous problems arising from manual manufacture, the individual has unconsciously developed in his character both perseverance and initiative, which are sure to prove of value in later iife. He will realize, when in the capacity of a purchaser and private citizen he is obliged to buy manufactured goods, that the market price of the commodity is dependent on such items as availability of raw materials, labor difficulties, and time of completion. The department is now undertaking a program of modernization with the aim of constantly keeping the auxiliary tools abreast of the times. They have recently added a new sanding machine and a planing machine. Although the department has been functioning for over forty years, many of the machines have lost little of their former effectiveness so well have they been kept since their installation. And so what greater thrill can there be in this age of machine standardization and mass production than the chance to point with pride to an object of your affection and handiwork and to shout for the world to hear, I made it by hand. It must be a good fit As the wheels revolve 143 Mr. John J. Jewett Guidance and Attendance Department Mrs. Helen U. Connelly It is the business of guidance to be ever ready to adjust itself to the needs of the individual or the group. No better example of this can be found than in the life of our own Guidance Department during the last few years. From the delightful offices in old Room 23 the guidance office has opened in the corner room of the Municipal Gymnasium. Here the individual work has been carried on, and the Director has always experienced the hearty cooperation of the many and varied guidance agencies in the high school and in the grades. Economic education, formerly directed from the department, has been assigned to the Social Studies Director, Mr. Kepner. Miss Anne Reynolds who has been a loyal and efficient secretary of this department since its inception has been transferred to Mr. Kepner ' s department. The matter of public school attendance has been placed under the direction of the Guidance Director, and the depart- ment welcomes heartily Mrs. Helen U. Connelly, who not only carries on the clerical work of the Guidance Department in general but under the Director s supervision most efficiently supervises the attendance of pupils in the entire town. The future promises still another change. It is expected that the Guidance and Attendance Office will be located in the School Committee s new office building on Marion Street, where every facility will be offered for the guidance of the youth of Brookline. Distinct steps have been taken this year to place special emphasis on the vocational aspects of guidance. While the Director still welcomes the pupil or parent with an educational problem, he is particularly eager to be of service to graduates or to those leaving school, whose problems are particularly pressing these times and are related to vocations. All of the various administrative divisions of the School Department are cordially urged to request any assistance they may desire of the Guidance Department. Throughout these years of changes the inceptive purpose of the Guidance Department has never changed. That purpose is to make records, if possible, but in any case to help the student. 144 Miss Norma Allen Mr. Francis T. Ball Physical Education Department The Physical Education Department, always appealing to the student, has so broadened its scope and so modernized gym that now, led by Director Thomas H. Hines, we have an outstanding program in physical education. How- ever, the major purpose of the department lies in developing general health as the best guarantee of mental alertness. Yearly medical examinations are supplemented by physical fitness tests, given to determine one ' s all-round power in proportion to age and weight. Those receiving low P.F.I. s have been well satisfied to see their scores mount to normal following a change in program. More gym exercises, increased rest, lightened academic loads, and afternoon sports have all worked wonders during the past year to raise these low ratings. Improvement in marks and increased enjoyment in living have been consequently derived. Close cooperation between physicians, nurses, teachers-, and parents has made such advancement possible. Now the physical educators are aware of the real abilities of their classes and thereon pattern their programs. Our subject teachers, too, can more readily account for failure due to physical defects and seek a speedy remedy. Thus, the entire school staff is alert to its responsibility for the health of the pupils, and health conservation takes precedence over all other aims. This department supervises our Class Day exercises in which the entire school participates. In contrast to the white worn by the rest of the students are the colorful costumes of the senior girls, the junior marshals, and the freshmen dancers. In reading the next pages you will observe the varied fields of sports offered to Brookline students. These also have developed a new emphasis, for today such activities are conducted primarily for health promotion rather than for the satisfaction of winning. Material rewards are still seen in the B ' s granted members of the boys ' varsity teams and in the old English letters displayed by those girls who have garnered five hundred points from afternoon sports. Brookline is fortunate in having a Physical Education Department ready to serve the needs of each pupil, and we who grow strong thereby are sincerely grateful. Mr. John B. Dunn Miss Rachel L.

Hopes ran high when Captain Bob Beal led the Red and Blue eleven onto the gridiron at the season ' s opening. But a plucky Winthrop team held the local boys to a scoreless tie despite the tearless ball carrying ot Dick High and Cliff Fitzpatrick. It was due to these two backs that Brook- !i ne kept the ball down in the opponent ' s territory. A setback at the hands of Quincy High shattered the undefeated hopes ®f B. H. S. How- ever, the starring defense of Tom White, the fighting center, and of Gundy Kirrane, halfback, prevented the Granite City team from running amuck with more than two tallies. With an improved eleven, Brookline stubbornly held a highly-rated Rindge aggregation to one touchdown. The home team was determined to stop their Cambridge visitors in this first Suburban League tilt. Again Tom White and Dick High proved their defensive prowess in the fray. A week later B. H. S. failed to click against Cambridge Latin, and injuries forced many of +he regulars to the sidelines. But on the other hand, Coach Brown uncovered a dependable offensive back in sophomore Bob Carroll. Willie Cataldo and Bob Beal bolstered an otherwise weak Brookline defense. The Red and Blue met de- feat again, this time at the hands of Fitchburg on a wind-swept field. The wind, playing havoc with the ball ruined many a strategic kick, and the razzle-dazzle Fitchburg offensive ac- counted for three touchdowns.

The excellent blocking of Ira Berman and George Hibbard was an outstanding feature. A discouraged team next met small but undefeated Punchard High. The puzzling offense of the opponents chalked up a score in the first period. In the second half, Mai McAskill and Soapy McGuire brought the ball into scoring posi- tion in the last five minutes, but an intercepted pass cost the Red and Blue its victory. The battered eleven returned home to meet New Bedford Vocational. With concerted drives this foe tallied twice, but Brookline started on the comeback trial deep in the fourth period. With two minutes to play the home eleven took possession of the pigskin in New Bedford territory; a desperate scoring attempt was rewarded when wingman Joe Sullivan snatched a pass from amid several N. B. V. players and raced for the only touchdown of the year. The colorful classic with Newton ended a victori- less season. In the forty-first tilt with the Orange and Black, Brookline was overwhelmed at Tech Field by the Newton passing offense which led to four touchdowns. Nevertheless, Dick High sparkled in the backfield. Alan Dreyfuss, Ira Berman, Phil Belson, Frank Crohan, Tom White, and Tom Ferguson were in the line. Joe Sullivan and Hal Lewis played end positions.

This year ' the swish of the ball passing cleanly through the iron hoop (see Frank Merriweli) was heard less frequently than has been the custom during the past two years. However, in spite of this fact, the fire and fine play which characterized this year’s team established for it a high water mark in fine sportsmanship and keeness of competition. Mr. Charles Bemis, wise and beloved coach, not only instilled in the boys under his capable tutelage a knowledge of what constitutes a first-class basketball player, but also what is even more important, the basic traits and characteris- tics that comprise a real gentleman and a true sportsman. This year’s captain and successor to the playing laurels left by last year ' s captain Tuey Mooney is Cliff Red Fitzpatrick. Cliff set a standard of excellence for his mates to shoot at by leading the Suburban Basketball League in total points scored as well as earned for himself a berth on the all-star team which represents the best players in This circuit. The red and blue standards were capably advanced by Truck Nixon, and up-and-coming sopho- more guard, Hugger High, efficient Sc hctliiie Framingham at Brookline Brookline at Arlington Waltham at Brookline Brookline at Rindge Cambridge at Brookline Brookline at Newton .

The general records of scores in which the Wealthy Towners participated can give little true indication of the excellence of their game as a whole, for it may be noticed that a majority of games lost were sur- rendered to the opposition by extremely small margins. In the formation of a capable junior varsity squad, Coach Bemis has developed a nucleus for next year s varsity which should prove extremely powerful in the light of its competitive experience and thorough grounding in the basic rudiments of the game. The student members of the junior varsity team this year were Kaplan, Stoia, Bogen, Cad iff , Mooney, Meehan, Argus, and Fitzpatrick. Were Dr. James Naismith, the inventor of this game of basket- ball, able to see the Red and Blue quintet in action and perceive the combined dash and sportsmanship which they exhibit, it might well be imagined that he would cup his hands and holler through them as loud as his pedagogical dignity would allow, Keep B 36 F 24 a f jj- boys, you ' re doing fine!

For the second year, Brookline competed in the newly- organized Eastern Massachusetts Hockey League against such schools as Malden, Brockton, Hudson, Dedham, Somerville, Lexing- ton, and Natick. With a few veterans, Coach Harold N. Bates sent his team, led by Captain Jack Byrne, against Hudson High at the season ' s opening; but despite Fran Sharkey ' s fine goal- tending, the opponents slithered the only score of the game into the Brookline net, much to the grief of the Red and Blue sextet. However, B. H. S. took its revenge upon Lexington High when Doc Jantzen, a wing, tied the game in the final seconds of the match. A second deadlock was the result of the Natick-Brookline tilt on Christmas Night. Here, both teams struggled to a 2-2 score, placing Brookline in sixth place. Though the Wealthy Towners promised to be a winning sextet, Malden, the looming league champion, got the best of the team in a 4-2 setback. The Brookline team was unable to stave off the fleet-footed Golden Tornado of Malden on this New Year ' s Night. But the big surprise of the season came one week later when undefeated Brockton High tripped over the Brookline sticks to the tune of 1-0. Soapy McGuire. Sclicil «i Ic Brookline vs. Hudson . .

S. jumped to third position in the standing to overcome Dedham High 1-0. Hal Kushner, with Bill Kirrane ' s assistance, tallied the goal that produced this win; and again Sharkey ' s net-minding saved the day from either tie or defeat. The final game was played the following week against the 1937 champion outfit from Somerville. In a hotly contested battle Brookline brought forth a 3-2 victory. Soapy McGuire again accounted for the first score in the opening period; while Gundy Kirrane brought the house down with two goals netted late in the last canto of the game. This victory meant third place for Brookline, tied with Hudson behind Malden and Brockton. In a post-season clash between the all-stars of the Eastern Massa- chusetts League and the all-stars of the Bay State League, Fran Sharkey tended the goal for the former. Other Brookline High School representa- tives were McGuire, Kushner, and Kirrane. The Bay Staters won 4-3. ROW I: McManus, Gustafson, Cherney, Liner, Fitzpatrick, Allen, O ' Neil, Simons.

Coach Tom Fitzgerald sent his starting nine on to the field early this spring against one of the Suburban League rivals, Cam- bridge Latin. Under the leadership of Captain Sid Liner, the Brookline aggregation thus started its campaign for the pennant of the Suburban League Championship in competition with such teams as Arlington, Rindge, Cambridge Latin, Waltham, and Newton. The line-up boasted of only a few good veterans from last year ' s nine but was strengthened by several newcomers from last year s powerful junior varsity team. Aside from Sid Liner, the most valuable pitcher of the squad, Coach Fitzgerald had Bob Gustaf- son, a big right-hander, and veteran Dan O ' Neil to do the hurling. Phil McGovern, Arnie Frye, George Abrams, and Al McNeilly were the reserve pitchers, most of whom were members of the lower houses. Behind the plate, Ed Riley was likely to start, but Bob Jacobs and Al Benjamin, aces of last year ' s jayvees, pressed Ed for the catcher ' s position. At the first sack, Cliff Fitzpatrick, a veteran for two years, shaped up the best and was counted on to do the heaviest batting of the squad. To guard the second bag, Coach Fitzgerald chose his man from two newcomers to the varsity, Mitch Simons and Hen Cowley, both dependable at fielding. Short stop was covered by Joe Sutherland a classy fielder and consistent hitter. Third base was guarded either by Frank McDonald or Soapy McGuire, two more rookies on the varsity. The outfielders were the indefinite positions, but Lloyd Allen, Ed McManus, and Dick Baker were likely starters. As a whole, the team was weak in its batting, lacking the necessary sluggers. Yet, the fielding was better than usual with but a few weak spots in the entire field. However, the fight of the nine has put the squad in the battle for the championship; and, with support, the team w II have an excellent chance to secure top honors.

And at the command Go four lithe bodies hit the green water in splashy unison to bring glory to the Red and Blue natorial cause. The voice above might well be that of John Coutts, efficient coach of the Brookline mermen, for his charges have become so accustomed ! to these words that oftentimes they awaken from an apparent sound slumber to take up the challenge by diving onto the bedroom floor and attempting the butterfly stroke or Australian crawl from that point. Brookline is unusually fortunate in possessing a swimming pool where beginners may master the fundamentals of swimming, while those further advanced may, through experience and training, learn to swim out to that apparently distant and unapproachable float on which are perched the immortals of the swimming world, Weismuller, Medica, and Flanagan. Taking full advantage of these splendid facilities, Brookline swimming team has a reputation ' for gathering points and places with earned ease and rapidity. This year’s team, while having sufficient team power and balance to render it dangerous in dual meets, suffered from a dearth of material in the way of individual stars, as is evidenced in the fact that j no Brookline man gained a first place award in a major interscholastic competition. However, the team led by Capt. Doug Burton j won three dual meets and wound up on the losing end of four such competitions. Captain Burton, swimming the breast stroke and free style, performed credibly and was supported by Dick Chmielinski, 300 junior dashman who also proved his capability in the free style event. Four good men and true who could be counted on in the free style event were Alvin McNeilly, Dudley Emerson, Henry Hawaii . Calls” Cooke, and Earl Ennis. Walter Rankin and Robert Shiller bounced gracefully many a time from the springboard in an effort to advance the fortunes of the team, and it must be paid to their credit that they executed many difficult dives and turns with courage and ease. The team placed fifth in the Harvard Interscholastic Meet, and fourth in the Meehan Interscholastic at Providence, R. I.

Only in its fourth year as a recognized school sport in Brookline, golf has attracted considerable enthusiasm as well as considerable playing ability on the part of the student body. The participants have thus far established an excellent reputation by ranking high in the interscholastic competition and in the general excellence of their game. Francis Ouimet, a Brookline caddy who elevated amateur golf to the position of prominence it now holds, is generally regarded as the idol of these mashie-swinging Wealthy Towners, but all will readily admit without excessive urging that Bobby Jones, Sam Snead, and Ralph Guldahl have rightly earned their niches in the hall of fame of golf. As yet the team has engaged in no competitive matches but have been limbering up their golfing muscles with deadly drives, chip shots, and putts that would make a pro ' jealous. The team plays at the Brookline Municipal Course and takes full advantage of the excellent practice facilities that are offered there. Elimination tournaments tend to keep the team on its toes and act as a medium for determining the most capable players. Coach Harry Brown, well qualified for his position as mentor of the niblick wielders, utilizes his valuable experience in showing his charges how to better their respective scores by eliminating that slice or making that approach shot drop dead to the pin. This year ' s golfing aggregation, while possibly of not so high caliber in individual ability as performers of previous years possesses a balance that is sure to do it credit in actual competition. Skippy Callan, who heads this team as captain and number one performer, depends chiefly for support on Soapy McGuire, Squash Murphy, Doc Jantzen, Harry Ernst, Arnie Block, Mclnerny, Finnerty, McManus, and Beck. However, the majority of these lads have yet to meet the test by fire or actual competition, for none of the regular members of last year ' s team are available, and thus their competitive ability is still an unknown quantity. Coach Brown plans to supplement this year ' s regular schedule by matches with Clark School of Hanover, N. H., Roxbury Memoria 1 High School, Harvard House Teams, and the Harvard freshman golf team.

The prospects for this season s tennis outfit were uncovered by Coach Donivan Barnes last fall when the annual intra-school tennis tournaments got under way. From the seventy entrants, Coach Barnes chose his varsity and junior varsity squads. Led by Joe Strock, captain and winner of last year ' s tournament, com- petition began. The contenders for the number one spot held by Joe Strock seemed to be Georgie Adams, a varsity squad veteran, Jackie Byrne, who finished second to Strock last year, and Phil Cassidy, another letterman. As predicted, the favorites ran true to form down to the semi-finals. Strock subdued Adams in the next-to-last round, while Byrne conquered Cassidy to meet Strock in the finals. Jack then defeated Captain Strock in three straight sets to capture the tournament title. Having determined who were probably the best tennis men in the school, Mr. Barnes called his squad out early this spring. They were eager to equal last year ' s record, eight victories out of ten interscholastic matches and a tie for third place in the state wide tournament at Longwood Towers. Aside from the mainstays of the team — Strock, Byrne, Ad arms, an d Cas- sidy — there were others upon whom a good team depended. A series of bumper practice matches were played to determine the remaining positions on the first squad. Among the hopefuls were Jack Golden, Irwin Katz, and Chet Lipsett, who received their experience with t he junior varsity group last year. McPhee, Levin Feinberg, McCullough, Svetkey, and Weinstein had equally good chances to rate on the first team. With such an aggregation the possibility of going through the season without defeat loomed as a reality, but the schedule which the squad faced was equally tough to overcome. Though the number of interscholastic matches was reduced; nevertheless the schools which appeared to have pre- sented the strongest squads during the past few seasons were retained in the schedule. Possible matches were under negotia- tion with Roxbury Memorial, Brockton Cambridge Latin, and Quincy. Matches were arranged for the second team with Dedham, Boston College High, and Newton.

ROW 2: Mr. Wells, Byrne, Meyers, Johnson, Miller. This year Captain Sonny Woifson led his mates into the winter and spring track seasons under Coach Monty Wells ' s direction. Although the annual intra-school septathlon for the Joseph Helpern Memorial Trophy uncovered several potential competitors, such as Phil Finn, the winner, Gene Spector, a sophomore broad-jumper, Johnnie Stewart, and Harry Meyers, nevertheless interscholastic competition proved a bit more difficult. In the opening meet with Lynn English, B.H.S. sgueezed out a 39-38 point victory, with Wolf- son capturing the broad-jump and taking a second in the hurdles. Harry Meyers ran off with the 300 and placed second in the dash while Bob Raymer led the dash and trailed in the 600. 45-32 was the score of the Arlington meet with Brookline sweeping the field events and capturing a majority of first places on the boards. Johnnie Stewart produced a remarkable time in the 1000. Although they failed to score for the first time in years at the Northeastern Meet and took a slow first in one heat of the Eastern Seaboard Relay Carnival, the tracksters fared better at Andover where Woifson gained a fourth in the broad-jump after taking a fourth in the hurdles. Jack Byrne tied for last scoring place in the high jump. At the State Meet the Red and Blue gathered five points when Sonny captured second in the hurdles, and Jackie Byrne a third in the high jump. Four days before, at the Dartmouth Interscholastic, Woifson had taken a second in a world-record hurdle final, and Charlie Johnson ran third in a world-record mile jaunt. The winter season wound up with the annual dua 1 meet with Newton. The Orange and Black swept with a 47-30 victory. High scorers were Captain Woifson in the hurdles and broad-jump, Bob Raymer in the 300, Charlie Johnson in the 1000, and Alan Dreyfuss in the shot put. Under Mr. Wells ' s direction, the recently formed Track Club has gained a membership of over seventy track enthusiasts. Woifson and Manager Joe Miller were its student officers. With practically the same aggregation that competed on the boards, the track team participated in the following meets this spring: April 30, Worcester Interscholastics; May 3, Belmont; May 7, New Hampshire Interscholastics; May 13, Newton; May 21, Harvard Interscholastics; May 28, State Meet; May 30, Brown Interscholastics; June 2, Class Day Relays.

Football Basketball Freshman Sports Although the Shailer House athletic teams are given but little publicity, nevertheless the response which these various activities have received is very encouragin g. Shailer House, the freshmen, has the opportunity to participate in four sports — baseball, football, track, and basketball. Each team has a full schedule of games with other schools, and these freshmen teams have proved invaluable since they often furnish the bulk of the material for the varsity teams. For their services, the students who participate on these various squads receive the red numerals of their class — this year, 1 94 1 . 3ft X X X Coach Ralph W. Totman directed his freshman footbali team through a rather successful season. With a herd of good material, he shaped a nicely- balanced eleven with such valuable players as Paul Perkins, Vin Leahy, Angelo Rozantes, and others. In all, twenty-two Shailer House men were awarded numerals. The team administered two defeats, tied on one occasion, and was outdistanced by their opponents twice. Milton tied Brookline in the opening game with one score a piece, 6-6. The freshman swamped Somer- ville Junior High in the second fray by a 2 I to 0 tally, and suffered their first defeat of the season at the hands of the Needham High School team, 20 to 12. Brookline proved its superiority over Milton in a second game by outstripping the opponents 19 to 13. The Shailer House team ended its season with a 20 to 0 defeat administered by a much superior Boston Trade aggregation. ROW 2: Col ROW I ROW I: D.

The squad which numbered close to fifty at the beginning of the indoor season was coached by Mr. Weygant of the Gym Department. These freshman track- sters practised with the varsity squad, competed with them, and participated in the same events. Furthermore, this frosh squad competed not only in intra-school matches against the upper houses, but also in several inter- scholastic meets as well. Concurrent with that of the varsity, a septathlon also was staged for the freshman runners. The starlets discovered among these neophyte track aspirants were Lew Perlstein, Paul Perkins, Brie Rosenthal, Vin Leahy, and others. For participation in the sport, nineteen of the squad receive the numerals of their class. The schedule for the winter season included teams from Winthrop, Milton, Somerville Junior High, and Arlington. Baseball 7 , McEntee, In preparation for future basketball teams, Mr. Bemis has organized a freshman quintet which will prove invaluable to the varsity squad. Many of these boys played on the junior varsity five and no doubt will be the jayvee nucleus and possible varsity material next year. Practising daily with the varsity, this aggregation had a distinct advantage of learning the finer points of the game early in their basketball careers. Several of the more promising candidates were Love, Fitzpatrick, Button, Stoia, Bohn, and others. Twelve of the freshman basketeers were awarded their ' 1941 ' numerals. In addition to spring track, Shailer House students can also join and play on the baseball nine, which this year was coached by Mr. Bemis. Like the freshman football team, new stars inevitably are uncovered which prove valu- able for the following year ' s varsity and junior varsity squads.

Miss Kane and Miss lonta direct badmintoneers in correct techniques of serv- ing, stroking, and scoring. A tournament climaxed the season with Dorothy Nylin, Marie Morrison, Vera Baker, Barbara Saunders, Janet Ray, and Frances Hermann com- peting. Frances captured the laurels. Volley ball is enjoyed together with badminton. Interclass contests proved Akers House the most expert. Priscilla Nagle led this group, Phyllis Haskins captained Lincoln House, Alice Richmonds was Packard ' s choice, and Shailer house elected Jane Holland. Throughout the excitement of competition in both games, good sportsmanship was always evident for the spirit of cooperation and fair play is the primary contribution of all athletics. Gym team, as the name implies, involves apparatus work of several varieties. Ac- cording to the records, the sport attracted an unprecedented number of girls who attended practice every Thursday afternoon. Two groups were formed this winter to care for all the athletes and much interest developed in increasing skill. Under the supervision of Miss lonta and Miss Kelley, the girls worked hard with perfection of form resulting. Near the close of the season an inter-house meet was held. Shailer House emerged the victor while the juniors followed close behind. The following week an individual tournament created excitement among participants. An honorary varsity was named consisting of the eighteen with highest scores, and class team letters were awarded to all gym-teachers.

H O C R E V On the hockey field this fall, a large squad fought for Brookline s glory, polished stick technique, and found enjoyment. Miss Allen directed practice at Dean Road each week, guiding the more talented through varsity games and training beginners in fundamentals. Needham, Wellesley, Winchester, Choate, Thayer Academy, and New- ton provided opposition for our hockey players. Julie Mulvihill captained the first team while Kayo Green as manager made the engagements and supplied weary players with refreshing oranges. Jane Harley led the second varsity group which trained real material for next year s team. As the season closed, House games were played with Akers House girls emerging victoriously. Brookline continues to produce experienced hockey players, and several of our grads have gained distinction on national and local teams. The basketball flew around the girls gymnasium often this winter as many of our athletes took part in this vigorous sport. Miss Allen and Miss lonta taught the group a form of the game much like the type played by boys. Six, rather than the usual five, composed each team, however. A lively inter-house tournament highlighted the season with Akers House capturing the laurels. During this competition, Gertrude McGrail guided the Lincoln House girls, Priscilla Nagle was Akers House captain, Packard was headed by Anne Sloper and Sylvia Schwamb, while the Shailer House girls chose Helen Wish and Jane Adams to lead them. The most experienced basketballers journeyed to Newton when the season ended and found there even more experienced opposition.

For a nominal fee, instruction and mounts were given riding devotees. Miss Griffith and Miss Allen were in supervision. Classes were conducted at McNeilly ' s Riding Academy in Chestnut Hill. Donning their habits at school, the girls proceeded in buses to the Riding Academy on Tuesday and Thursdays. Novices learned to mount, post, and gallop in a ring behind the stables. When they could prove to their horses just who was steering , they were taken out on the road. During the season the more advanced equestriennes enjoyed long rides along wooded trails. The 1938 swimming season opened with much enthusiasm. Many reported for practice in our beautiful pool, and each Wednesday, under the able coaching of Miss Sutherland the team made marked progress. March 9 the annual play-day was held. Brookline girls acted as hostesses to four visiting teams — Newton, Belmont, Norwood, and Boston Latin. Every school was represented by eight swimmers, while two girls from each group made up the color teams. Free-style, breast-stroke, back-stroke, and graceful diving events took place in addition to various games. After the meet came refreshments. Later in March, Akers House came out on top in an inter-house com- petition which closed a most satisfactory season for our mermaids.

Grace and poise have rewarded Brookline Robin Hoods, for no sport develops these qualities more than archery. This year, by popular request, it was included in the winter program, thus becoming an all-year-round activity. Bright feathered arrows whizzed into the targets many times while girls who had never held a bow became proficient archers. Others with previous experience, here or at summer camps, in- creased their accuracy. At the opening of the spring session, the girls made their own gloves to protect their wrists. Miss Griffith and Miss Kane directed this work and all other shooting 11 events. At the close of each season, when competitions took place, bulls-eyes dominated as the eight most successful entrants were chosen for the team. Tennis may be termed the most popular sport offered to girls since several classes are conducted fall, winter, and spring. While the beginning group mastered basic strokes and rules, the intermediate players proceeded on an honor basis. To secure credit for the sport, these intermediates played twice a week, reporting all games to the coach. Candidates for the varsity engaged in a ladder tournament this fall. Top places were frequently challenged, but in the final showing Bebe Milton led the singles ladder as Jean and Joan Pinanski captured the doubles crown. The winter term brought intensive indoor practice for the first teamers, under the guidance of Miss Sherman, in preparation for successful inter-school matches in the spring.

Baseball is not only America ' s national game from the men ' s point of view be- cause here at Brookline, the girls too have developed an active interest in the sport. The more proficient are expecting big-league offers, or perhaps a special league will have fo be formed if the Red Sox and Bees fail to appreciate this local talent. The girls have taken to the sport with vim, and every Thursday afternoon this spring the balls flew, home runs were tallied, and batters struck out. Miss Norma Allen coached games between both House and color teams as competition developed batting skill and pitching ability. Watch out boys — the Brookline, all-girls team just scored another run! Because of popular demand, golf was established this year as a sport to be enjoyed not only during the spring and fall seasons, but also throughout the winter months. From September through November and again in the spring, some dozen girls swung their clubs at the Brookline Municipal golf course where special instruction was given by Mr. Keefe. When weather prevented the continuance of these lessons, a new plan was devised for those girls interested in keeping up their golf. The fencing room inside our gym building was made over into a golf room. A large net was installed to stop the balls and a special carpet was laid on which strokes were practiced.

I ' ll give you two of those new Northern Nyassa numbers for your red Rhodesian revenue, might well be the trade of some members of this organiza- tion in their efforts to amass more complete collections. But whatever the trade, authority for it is well grounded through the course of action which this club pursues. Talks by prominent collectors, games, and exhibitions supplement the program of swapping and general philatelic discussion. Page Lauriat heads the group as president. He is ably assisted by Morton Wiison as vice-president, Barbara Fine as secretary, Leonard Halpert as treasurer, while Mr. Smith is faculty adviser. How about trading? Who can tell? Perhaps one of this group of keen-witted individuals may be moulded into a world ' s champion like Capablanca. Under the loving care of Miss Grace Allen, the organization has fostered this ancient pastime, striving to promote interest and skill in the art of chess playing. The president is William Herwitz; the secretary, Malcolm Katz; the treasurer, Sidney Steinman. The program has consisted of weekly meetings, elimination and round-robin tourna- ments, and interscholastic competitions. A plan is underway to have member- sh p in this club credited toward entrance into Alpha Pi in recognition of the sportsmanship and good-fellowship which the game stimulates.

Over forty members of the graduating class and of Akers House attained membership in Alpha Pi during the last two years. Alpha P ' is the school ' s honorary society which promotes high scholarship attainment and stimulates activity in extra-curricula fields. The two Greek letters, A and P, represent leadership and excellence. By participating in athletics, student government, and other activities, and by maintaining a high scholastic standing, a pupil is eligible to join Alpha Pi, provided he has gained the required number of eight points. This past year, the society has been unusually large. Ten of the senior members were admitted in the spring of 1937; ten more met the qualifications last fall; and the remainder in addition to ten juniors gained admission in the spring. Officers of the honorary organization were Bob Berman, president, who secured the greatest number of points by the end of his third year. The other honorary position, that of secretary-treasurer, was held by Solomon B, Levine, who was runner-up to Bob. Mr. William L. Snow, one of the founders of Alpha Pi, served as the society’s faculty adviser. The hub of school government in Brookline High is the School Council, the legislative body, which ’endeavors to make B. H. S. a leader in culture, refinement, self-discipline, and scholastic attainment. Robert Berman was selected to preside over the group but was succeeded on becoming graduating class president by George Hibbard of Packard House. Mr. Webber, Packard housemaster, was chosen as vice-chairman; and Ruth Hill of Roberts House served as secretary-treasurer. The remainder of the legislative body was made up of each House president, a representative from each House, the captain of the marshals, and four more elected members of the faculty. In addition to regulating the Marshal force, the Court of Justice, and the school by-laws, this past year the School Council spon- sored an investigation into the status of school spirit among the students. The Council sought the opinions of faculty and students and considered plans for stimulating school-spirit. This group has also helped to conduct various school elections, to manage the Newton football rally, to institute a court of complaints, and to control the student activities.

The executive department of school government is the marshal force consisting of over eighty members, whose duty it is to enforce the regulations of the School Council and to assist in any emergency during the school day. The individual marshal is elected to his post by student votes, provided he qualifies in his studies. The marshal force is instrumental in supervising the Lunch Room and in keeping the corridors unobstructed by school traffic within the building. Study room supervision is often in the hands of this force; and when- ever the occasion arises, the marshals are called upon to act as guides or ushers at entertainments, parents ' nights, and plays. In Sep- tember 1937, Howard Bailey and Betty McCabe were elected by the staff to the positions of captain and assistant captain for the ensuing school months. For the third consecutive year Mr. Harold N. Bates has acted as faculty adviser to the group. Th is last year Clifton Hill has presided over the Court of Justice, the judicial department of the student government. As Chief Justice he has essayed to make the wrong-doer see his error, to instill in him a respect for authority, and to impose a just penalty for his misdeed. Howard Bailey, captain of the Marshals, acted in the capacity of the prosecuting attorney. Mr. Benjamin Roman served as faculty adviser to this judicial group. Completing the personnel of the judiciary were Ruth Hill, clerk of the court, and George Hib- bard, sergeant-at-arms. The jury was composed of at least one member from each house: Clifford Fitzpatrick, Roberts; Maurice Helpern, Lincoln; Daniel Cadiff, Akers; Elinor Applebaum, Akers; and Robert Feinberg, Packard. The defendant, who is judged for the most part by his schoolmates, may expect a fair treatment of his case, for the jurists are in a position to understand his viewpoint.

Service Organizations Here we record extra-curricular activities which have earned genuine credit for their accomplishments. Perhaps the best part of these achievements is that most of them benefit the school and community at large as well as the students participating. We present to you the Junior Red Cross, the Girl Scouts and the Girls ' League. Rah, B.H.S! Another record was broken, when the Red Cross went over the top again as we all watched its thermometer pass well over the hundred dollar mark. Under the leadership of Mr. Friedland, the Red Cross has shown the meaning of social service. The work of officers Rosalind Stern, Janet Gale, Jean Pinanski, and Stanley Porosky, aided by enthusiastic home room Reps, has instilled in us the necessity for helping others. The chapter also belongs to the Boston Council under whose auspices several members work each week. Attention! Right dress! Front: your country ' s flag, pledge allegiance. And so it is that the Girl Scouts come together each week under Miss Poland and Miss Nichols. They aim for practical citizenship and do anything and everything to bring them nearer their goal, standing ready to serve the community in every conceivable capacity.

Patrol leaders are Betty Carolan, Priscilla Eagan, Betsy Parker, Nancy Campbell,- Jean Allen, Eloise Linscott, llene Beaumont, and Phoebe Orlick. Girls at B.H.S. are all live-wires, but the Girls ' League claims some seven hundred of the top-notchers. We look at the number of their interests and wonder just where to begin our chronicle. So, why not enter school with a freshman? Miss Newcomer has already heard about the Girls ' League because their Advisory Council gave her some grand moments at the Eighth Grade Party last I spring; now she praises its existence when a helpful senior adviser appears and makes those first weeks simpler. Acquaintance parties help her to meet many future friends and as Membership Week passes, she invests twenty pennies, becomes a full-fledged member, and then watches that investment pay. The Girls League Bulletin informs her of the Thanksgiving meeting, and having brought a package of I food, which means a happier holiday for some needy family, she joins in the fun of the party. The less fortunate benefit, too when the girls produce toys, dolls, clothes and candy at Christmas. Later in the year our freshman plays hostess with her classmates at a program for other Leaguers. Perhaps she dances a bit in the League Room the day of the Carnival, she is reminded of her future by a speaker on vocations, and her mother meets faculty members at a pleasant tea. She serves as a candy girl at Dramatics, she secures a posi- tion as student secretary in one of the school offices. All through her high-school career this girl feels the influence of the League — she may be elected to the Executive Board, be chosen as a Senior Adviser, or member of the Home Room committee, or she may win the privilege of Advisory Council membership. The ann ual Supper Party completes her League year. And at last our freshman graduates with fond remembrances of the Girls’ League, a club which has helped her to improve herself, serve others, and prepare for leadership in life. These organizations teach the students the pleasure of giving of their time and spirit to ease the way for all. It is an honor to be one of their members, and honorably have their members achieved distinction. 16? Lunch Room Staff What ' s good for a big appetite? Sweets for the sweet One hot dish coming up Mrs. Elvira Potter Miss Mary Scannell Daily three groups of students and teachers come to the lunch room to make their choice of food from a varied assortment of dishes attractively displayed. Cash registers, operated by adult workers, have replaced the older method of payment by tickets. Mrs. Potter is in charge of the operation of the high school, as well as all other school lunch rooms in Brookline. The familiar faces of the members of the kitchen staff are seen from year to year with few changes. Miss Gebauer, who heads the group, has helped to prepare and serve the food since the present lunch room was opened. The student assistants are a vital part of the organization. To obtain a position in the lunch room, a student must be passing in all courses, be endorsed by his housemaster, and be able to arrange his program so that his fourth period is open for lunch room service. The lunch room is often used for social activities. During the past year the committee members in charge of the Senior Supper, Scholar- ship Dramatics Dance, Girls ' League Supper, and Carnival have made the lunch room the center for their social gatherings.
