It is the fruit of much careful planning and a great deal of painstaking labor. As we have watched it grow under our hands, we have hoped that it might be worthy of its predecessors and the School which it portrays. We have endeavored to catch within its covers the work and the play, the serious and the inconsequential, the sense and the nonsense; the teachers and the pupils, the School and its spirit, the commend- able endeavors and the steps forward — in short, we present life and progress at Brookline High for the academic year 1938-39. Acknowledgments We gratefully acknowledge the faithful service of these three teachers who have left the School within the year just past: Miss Emma Jackson for two years head of the Domestic Science studies in the Brookline Schools, whose knowledge and foresight were invaluable in planning the Domestic Science unit in the new building. Mr. John A. Prior whose presence enriched the School for the first half of this year. He came to us from Mount Hermon School and was released when called to his Alma Mater, Medford High. Miss Hilda Robertson, who will long be remembered for her friendly, generous personality and excellent scientific instruction. 8 Dedication On behalf of the Class of 1939, the Murivian Committee takes sincere pleasure in dedicating the 1939 Murivian to: MR. M. ROLAND BLANCHARD. a true teacher, an inspiring friend, a tireless worker. We tender our gratitude for the honesty and sincerity of his instruction, for the fine nature of his personal character, for his cheerful and capable leader- ship, and we here gratefully acknowledge that gift for organization which, with his levelheadedness and unstinting labor, has promoted several of the school’s most worthy institutions. 9 MARGARET OLEARV In Me oria I I When Peggy O’Leary passed away December 2, 1938, she left a space — a very large space in all her friends’ hearts. But at the same time she left, perhaps, better dispositions, more understanding, and more sportsmanlike per- sonalities in all of us who knew her. Her personality was such that all who came in contact with her would never forget her pleasing and happy appear- ance. She lived down South the years preceding her coming here, and started her career at B. H. S. as a sophomore. While at Brookline High School, Peggy was a violinist in the orchestra and played at every occasion when the organiza- tion appeared. The basketball team claimed her as a forward for two years, and when they played against Newton, she was right there helping Brookline along. Her homeroom, 236, elected Peggy vice chairman, an office which made her a representative to the Akers House Council. Here her original ideas were expressed and showed their worth by very often being carried out. A wonder- ful school spirit, which could serve as an example to many a pupil, showed itself in her attendance at football and basketball games. We have all of us lost something, a wonderful girl, an excellent athlete, but above all, we have lost a grand friend. Faculty Wilfred H. Ringer, Headmaster TO THE GRADUATES OF 1939 We figure to ourselves The thing we like; and then we build it up, As chance will have it, on the rock or sand.” The great purpose of your high school has not been so much to aid you to achieve scholastic attainment as to develop your character and efficiency as individuals. All else has been subordinated to these ideals that your usefulness may rest on a secure foundation. A place for industry and effort, here has been the shop in which each could sharpen the tools with which to continue his education through the days that must follow. Your school could not add to the number of tools in your mental workshop. Rather, the object has been to edge them — to train for skill and value in their use. How well you will account for these tools will be determined by your courage, your energy, your personality, your moral purpose. This school has offered the opportunities. The price the world will pay is determined not so much by the school as by yourselves. Success must be thought out, fought or wrought out . There is no other way. May the years to come give you all an abundance of good fortune and happiness. 12 Miss Mary W. Sawyer Dean of Girls During the last four years in Brookline High School you have certainly become accus- tomed to changes! As freshmen or sophomores you knew the old building with its spacious corridors, you browsed among the books in the Shailer Hall Library, you treasured imperish- able memories of Class Day with its seemingly endless ranks of students marching down the broad steps beneath the tower. Then on a September afternoon the unbelievable happened, and you watched with hundreds of others as the dignified old building was ruined by the leaping flames. Three days later you were adapting yourselves to classes in every corner of the remaining buildings and carrying on as usual. For two years you watched and waited and worked while the old building was torn down and the beautiful new structures were erected on the site. Through it all you have done whatever was demanded of you by the changing condi- tions. The emergency, long continued as it was, tested you and showed you to yourselves. So it will be in the years that lie ahead. Can you meet every situation squarely and rise above difficulties? Can you trust yourselves to live at your best? Are you going out into the com- munity to stand for something worth while” and to carry your share of responsibility? These are troubled and uncertain times which demand the best from every one of us. May you so live, day by day, that those around you may be glad that their lives have touched yours even for a brief moment.” We have every confidence that you will carry on in the same spirit with which you met the emergency in the Brookline High School. My best wishes to you all ! 13 Miss Berry Miss Linsky Miss Finn Miss Reynolds Miss Finnegan Executive Department r Fortunately for hmh-schoolers, the B. H. S. secretaries, J O who make up the Executive Department, serve 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 in charge of Headmaster Ringer ' s office and is his personal secretary. She developed her type- writing technique at Burdett College, and was awarded a gold medal for her proficiency and speed. She came to Brookline in 1931 as secretary to Miss Barnes and to Mr. Hines. Besides the office routine, Miss Berry takes Mr. Ringer ' s dictation, and attends to all matters pertaining to the faculty, their attendance and payroll. The various statis- tical reports sent in to Superintendent Caverly’s office and to the State House are also made out by Miss Berry. Miss Beatrice Finn has truly the marks of a Brooklinite, for she graduated from Runkle Grammar School and Brook- line High before attending Boston University, and then was secretary at Devotion School previous to her coming here. She is the registrar and has charge of all records. Your marks are recorded by Miss Finn and your every success and misdeed are under her supervision, as well as taking care of all college applications. Her interest in B. H. S. students is remarkable, and a Spanish Club meeting does not take place without her. Miss Miriam Linsky, another graduate of our high school, thought her Brookline days were over — but we are glad she came back. While here, she fiddled in the violin section? | our orchestra, and now she takes to golf and social studie: Miss Pierce Secretarial School prepared her for her secon j B. H. S. career. Miss Linsky’s work now consists of tf , daily office reports and supervision of the attendance of eve: pupil in the school. Miss Linsky is considered the school ' postmistress, for the directing of slips and letters to thei various destinations are in her hands. Miss Mary Finnegan has occupied the gymnasium offie for five years. She graduated from Mt. St. Joseph Academv and possesses a diploma from Bryant and Stratton Comme; 1 cial as well. She not only supervises sports, but participate in them herself, swimming and tennis being among those t claim her attention. Besides memorizing the P.F.I.’s of ever ! pupil. Miss Finnegan arranges all varsity, junior varsity, an: freshman sports. The physical education staff in the Be mentary Schools also depends on her for assistance in plar ning schedules. Miss Anne Reynolds returned to her Alma Mater as . stenographer after spending the intervening years in an ir surance office. Before inhabiting Mr. Kepner’s office sh: took charge of guidance work under Mr. Jewett. Now sh: does straight stenographic work, the history assignments ani other sheets being typed by her. She also helps Mr. GouL by typing the scripts for the radio programs. Her interest outside the office are gardening, tennis, and dogs. (Uidance and Attendance Department t is particularly significant that the Guidance Department dosely connected with the Attendance Department, for letimes there arises a problem of attendance which can solved by friendly and sympathetic guidance. The old- ,e truant officer is dead! And with him has died the a of come to school or go to court , which has been ■laced by a spirit of cooperation and understanding ■igned to make better citizens for the world of tomorrow, an unexplained absence of more than seven days occurs, re will not be a uniformed officer on the doorstep; oh no! tead there will be efficient Mrs. Connelly pleasantly in- ring into the absence, searching for troubles which can removed or adjusted. Although her office of Attendance ervisor carries with it the authority necessary to enforce laws of the community, the motivating spirit is that helpfulness as shown by some twenty-five pairs of shoes tributed to needy children who otherwise would have ?n unable to attend school. This is evidence of the quiet olution that has taken place in our school system. In addition to being concerned with attendance, the idance Department, under the direction of Mr. John V. cett, is occupied with providing students with needed ormation on vocations and the relation between these ations and school curricula. The modern suite of rooms in the progressive new building is the scene of vocational talks by prominent men in various fields, forum-type dis- cussions conducted by Mr. Jewett, and a vocational work- shop, where students are able to learn about the nature and requirements of the various careers open to them. Here is given valuable information which is designed to aid a student in choosing a suitable vocation and then getting and keeping a position in the chosen field. Many new phases are continually opening up before this progressive department. This year has seen much progress in both the Guidance and the Attendance Departments, with the result that each of these two departments is more and more assuming a position of importance in the school life. These departments have caught the keynote in modern progressive education — individuality. Each student is an individual, and he is entirely unsuited for the assembly line” tactics that are, unfortunately, still employed by some of the large schools. The Guidance Department is serving progress through helping students to find the vocation most suited for each of them. It is serving the best interests of the school and taxpayers through guiding students to a wise choice of curriculum and to a fuller utilization of the opportunities and facilities that are placed before them by their school. 15 Miss Spaulding English Department Readin and ’riting reach their highest development in this department. Treating with a subject so fundamental as to be required every year of every student it is only natural that the English Department should be the largest in the School with some sixteen members. Ably captained by Miss Alice Howard Spaulding, this array of brainpower endeavors to instill a mastery of spoken and written English in small daily installments. The student’s appreciation of really good books is fostered and encouraged through a wide variety of required reading. In the College Preparatory divisions the work is carried on at an exacting standard in order to pre- pare the pupils for the College Board examinations. Fifth year English is the outstanding recent development in the course. The College Course instituted by Miss Lewis last year concentrates on presenting a general understanding of literature of England and America in relation to their respective backgrounds. Mrs. Henderson’s new course for Civic Curriculum students takes a much different approach. The emphasis lies upon acquiring a knowledge of the pro- cesses of a rapidly changing world, the ability to think and express oneself, and fixing habits of objective thinking re- garding contemporary problems. These general aims tie up with the more immediate ones of vocational guidance and a study of literary selections with a view of their application to real conditions. Mrs. Henderson is admirably suited for such work and the project though still in the experiment! stage bids fair for a great success. Elsewhere in the department progress is at work. Mis Spaulding was called to Bates College to give two course last summer, one on the appreciation of poetry and anothe on the teaching of English. In these she was assisted by M Flemings, who gave a demonstration of Choral Reading, an: by Mr. Seamans, who demonstrated remedial reading. M.s Spaulding has been called back to give two more courses tk. summer both on the teaching of English. Mr. Flemings L the fall at Jordan Hall gave his first public concert, ver satisfying to the students and faculty who attended. Ml Deal and Mr. Williams each had an article published f educational periodicals. The Department welcomed three new teachers this yea: Mr. Samuel Gould, who has talked his way to prominent: in the new radio group which he has organized while holding up his pedagogical duties very successfully; Mrs. Madg Scanned, who became a permanent member of the depart ment; and Mr. John Prior, w ' ho came to us in the Fall frorr Mount Hermon and was released at midyears to go to Mec ford High, his alma mater. Mrs. Viola Horrigan has beer taking his place for the second half year. Mr. Homer Hat bour, whose successful individual tutoring project unfortui ately had to be terminated, is now ' on leave of absence. I SEATED: Miss Sawyer, Miss Lewis, Miss Spaulding, Miss Deal, Miss Johnson. STANDING: Mrs. Harvey, Mr. Flemings, Mr. Gould, Miss Allen, Mr. Williams, Mr. Wilkinson, Mrs. Henderson, Mr. Newsom, Mr. Hammond, Mrs. Scannell 16 French Department During the several years since the now almost forgotten ? of 1936 in the old building, the French Department, al- nigh firmly united in spirit and purpose, has been physi- ly separated, occupying rooms in out-of-the-way nooks and Jinnies all over the school building. Now, however, the jrious parts of the department have emerged from hiding, I ited in a group, and are again forging ahead with true ench spirit as if there had been no change. Its new home the first floor space once occupied by the Mathematics De- rtment before moving into the new building. These rooms e among the school’s most modern, and in the new sur- undings a fine start is being made to a bigger and better ture. The French Department was probably hardest hit by the e, in that large quantities of valuable books, magazines, id bric-a-brac brought back from France were destroyed, owever, in Room 123 the pieces saved from the devastation the fire and water have been gathered together to make ifresh start toward a new French museum. Thrilling World ar posters once more adorn the walls; and the 1939 num- ;rs of various French periodicals furnish a reading library om which the student may learn much, not only of French, it of world affairs as seen through French eyes. Thus rapid S ' Ogress is being made toward creating in each pupil a sense international understanding and good will. French being the language of international diplomacy and uch of the world’s fine literature, as well as the native tongue of a large portion of the earth’s inhabitants, is nat- urally greatly in demand from both college-preparatory and non-college students. The courses range from two to four years, the latter fulfilling very advanced requirements. Brook- line French students have made an outstanding record in col- lege, those with only three years’ training often leading advanced classes and several going on to become teachers. In keeping with the law of supply and demand, this pop- ular subject boasts the largest personnel of any foreign lan- guage department in the school. It has nine faculty mem- bers: Miss Louise Gambrill, long-time head of the depart- ment; Miss Geneva Chamberlain; Mrs. Hilda Donahue De- Nood; Mr. Paul Mather; Miss Kathryn O’Brien; Miss Eliz- abeth Paine, who has not taught this year because of illness; Miss Marguerite Pfleghaar; and Miss Jane Ricker, who has been away on leave of absence. Close contact is kept with the two-year preliminary course offered in the grammar schools. Following the progressive practice, very prevalent among the various departments of Brookline High School, of stimu- lating interest in allied extra-curricular activities, the French Department maintains organizations which are able to sup- plement the class work by presenting additional material dealing with French life and customs that can be only briefly presented in class due to the very full programs for each year. This year all efforts in this direction have been con- concentrated only on Le Cercle Francais. I - (KM 1 u 1 L i SEATED: Mr. Mather, Miss O ' Brien, Miss Pfleghaar. STANDING: Miss Donahue, Mrs. Jacques, Miss Perrin, Miss Chamberlain. 17 Mr. Kepner Miss McCabe Mr. Merrill Miss Taft Mr. Miller Miss Nichols Social Studies Department The Social Studies Department takes itself more seriously than any other department, and with justice. On it lies the arduous task of preparing four divisions of students for the History College Board, most dreaded of all exams. The fac- ulty is faced with a tremendous pile of learning to instil into the heads of the individual pupils and labors mightily to ac- complish that end. They provide themselves with the best materials possible, the foremost being a new type history text co-authored by Mr. Tyler Kepner, head of the department. This book, as most Seniors know, is two pounds worth of solid facts which is consumed in chunks nightly. The book is written in three sections and is the most comprehensive and compact book of its kind in general use. The College Board Senior History course is generally con- sidered one of the hardest in the School, and many people not planning to take Boards were submitted to its rigors needlessly. At a remarkable teacher-student conference called to discuss problems jointly the proposal was made which this year found effect in a new ' course for those going to college but not required to take Boards. Freed from the endless Board questions which are integral parts of the other course, more time can be given to background material and discussions of contemporary problems. Consid- erable w ' ork is done in the Library and panel discussions are frequent. This course is a big step forward towards that it ideal goal w ' here history and current events will be equally the subject for study and History becomes not a series of questions and answers but a veritable pageant of the past, i All this w ' ould lead us to believe that the Department’s nickname, the History Department , was correct. Far from it, however, for under this Department comes besides non- College, and College Board United States History and gov- ernment, — courses in Ancient and Modern European His- tory, civics, geography, and economic education. In this last held Brookline has scored another advancement. Brookline w as one of the first schools in the country to offer Economic Education. The continued success of this feature of the work is due in no small part to Mr. Roland Blanchard, who teaches this subject single-handed. The History faculty at Brookline is of exceptionally high caliber with a number of teachers holding advanced degrees and working for even higher distinctions. Saturnine Mr. Kepner, petite Miss Nichols, steady Miss Bliss, bland Mr. Miller are alw ' ays talking and working towards improving and amending the College History Courses, just as Mr. Wen- dell Smith, Mrs. Naysmith, Miss Wadsworth, Miss Taft, Mr. Merrill, Miss McCabe, and Mr. Totman continually strive to better their instruction. Miss Wadsworth Mr. Totman Mrs. Naysmith Mr. Smith Miss Bliss Science Department New discoveries in scientific fields, progress in all branches : scientific thought and advances in teaching scientific sub- cts are the main objects, attained day by day, of the Science epartment, one of the foremost in B. H. S. Under the adership of Mr. Leland G. Hollingworth eleven able teach- s contribute to the knowledge of any students who spend least three-quarters of an hour each day in the well- juipped Packard Laboratories. Of the department in gen- al it may well be said that eager teachers with good tools id equally eager students add up to scientific intelligence. The Science Department is located on the third floor of ie north wing of the high school. Here it is that the Pasteurs : tomorrow apply themselves to Physics, Chemistry, General aence and Biology for our Science Department does not nit itself to any single subject. This department prepares udents for college in each of its courses and helps them to ive a better understanding of the world of science about iem. Just recently two new classes for non-college students ere inaugurated clearly showing that education in the aence Department is well-balanced for all. These were iology and Chemistry classes designed for senior students terested. Here the practical applications of the two courses e taught by trips to scientific points of interest and by the resentation of the chemistry of foods, industries, chemistry, ?alth protection and conservation of our natural resources. Thus B. H. S. students get a chance for a complete study in scientific subjects of material benefit and use. Another phase of the Science Department’s varied life is the promotion of extra-curricular activities. Two clubs, the Camera and Science Clubs are under its auspices. Also, in reference to extra-curricular activities, everything taught in the Science Departments is practically a come on” for every type of hobby. Photography, Amateur Radio and Chemistry itself are perhaps the most worthwhile. In the classroom and out every type of work under the Science Department is car- ried out with remarkable exactness and dispatch. Other things put on by this vigorous department are cor- ridor exhibits on such subjects as fluorescence, engines, radio eyes, telegraphy and mounted animals. In this manner an interest in science is created in every B. H. S. student includ- ing those who don’t have any scientific subject on their cur- riculum. Anyone in the school with the least desire for scientific knowledge should not hesitate to elect one of the Science De- partment’s courses. There is practically a guarantee that any student” will be transformed into an erudite scholar able to lecture on electronics, scientific phenomena, every type of machine or the structure of insects. Mr. Beck Mr. Holland Mr. Webber Mr. Cooper Mr. Lowe 19 Miss Perkins Mr. Roman Miss Vanacore Miss Cooke Mr. Seamans Latin Department Veni, vidi, vici,” or I came, I saw, I conquered,” might well have been uttered by our Latin Department in a boisterous moment. Yearly this department aids students to enter college and successfully take the College Boards. Pre- paration in Caesar’s Gallic Wars, Cicero’s orations and Vir- gil ' s and Ovid’s works is offered. In the absence of Mr. Snow, Miss Jane Perkins runs this efficient department, aided by Mr. Benjamin Roman, Miss Caroline Cooke, Miss Con- getta Vanacore, Dr. Albert Shepard and Mr. Chester Sea- mans, a newcomer for 1939. Miss Perkins believes that a good Latin teacher is an English and Social Science teacher as well, and tries to make her aides and herself obey this precept, thus making Latin a more interesting and helpful course. The Latin Department has taken charge of one radio broadcast, as has every department, and put it over in fine style. Besides wishing to facilitate the students’ entrance into college, the department desires to circulate Roman and Greek culture among those students taking Latin. To this end there has been organized a Latin Life and Language class open to boys and girls who would not otherwise come into contact with the subject of Latin. Students in curricula other than the Latin may elect this interesting course. Last year there was one class organized and this year two more made up mainly of freshmen and sophomores. However, the subject is open to all desiring it. Thus an aid in English courses i; furnished for the asking to any and all B. H. S. students. The activities of the Latin Life and Language classes are varied projects which promote a cultural appreciation o: Latin. Indeed, a few of these may be, in the future, a par of every Latin class, college and secondary school. A stud on myths is included, and each pupil is required to make a notebook of pictures and facts on Roman life. Photographic slides are shown, and postcards and pictures are passed around whenever appropriate ones are to be had. Just re cently a kind of Information, Please” game has been startec with high marks as rewards. Each student was required to make a Christmas card with a Latin motto on it, and Latin mottoes about town are daily discussed and translated. In all, the Latin Life and Language classes afford a chance for a comprehensive, lucid insight on Roman and even Greek life and they enhance Latin as a subject greatly. For such occupations as nursing, which now requires two years of Latin, the Latin Life and Language course is ideal ; and for a general knowledge of Latin as an aid in English wore formation and comprehension it is of inestimable value It is a progressive course worthy of any time spent on it. So anyone in the high school who thirsts for knowledge of Latin other than that E pluribus unum means One from many” need not hesitate a moment in taking one o our Latin courses. Miss Wood Spanish Department Though the beautiful country of Spain was torn this year by )u a devastating civil war, harmony reigned undisturbed in the e realm of the Brookline Spanish department. The true spirit of old Spain continues to permeate its work, which consists t) - not alone of teaching the Castilian tongue, but also of famili- arizing its students with the fundamentals of Spanish history and literature and of fostering a better understanding of the Spanish race. Classes followed with interest the progress of events in : the war-torn nation across the seas, with time being given • for instructive discussion on this topic. A more important s result of this current development was the turning of eyes I southward toward the Latin- American countries. Pupils showed a keen desire for knowledge concerning our Central and South American neighbors, which are fast becoming centers of Spanish culture. This is directly in line with the ( aims of the department, which tries to emphasize, even more than the grammar of the language, the art, music, customs and general life of these nations. Acknowledgment to Miss Lula Adams, head of the depart- ment until 1937, is ever present in the minds of those who work in this field. Thanks to her untiring efforts Brookline became one of the first high schools in Massachusetts to take deep interest in things Spanish. Since her retirement, Miss Rebekah Wood has headed the department in an equally able and competent fashion. Working with her are Miss Lenore Placido and Dr. Albert Shepard. Few courses give the student a wider background than those in Spanish. Throughout the entire course, from be- ginners to advanced, the works of many of the most famous Spanish authors are read and discussed, thus aiding the nov- ice to comprehend the style of the master. Through famili- arity with this foreign language, pupils are helped to under- stand the intricacies of English grammar and vocabulary and may better appreciate the literature and art of all lands. By their work with the history and geography of the Latin coun- tries they acquire a valuable supplement to work in social studies. The fire of two years back struck a heavy blow at the Spanish department. Much of value was lost, and the de- partment was forced to adjust itself in the rather inadequate quarters of the Manual Training Building. However, it has gradually gained or replaced most of its treasured possessions, aided greatly by the Pan-American Union in Washington, which has contributed posters, booklets, and pictures. This year, with the advent of the new building, the department has been located in the spacious and strikingly modern rooms of the central wing. The brightened atmosp here has given a new impetus for better work to teachers and students alike, and additional space is available for articles of interest. Lofty though the culture of Old Spain may be, it has certainly been done justice by its advocates at Brookline High. 21 Miss Baths Miss Liden Mathematics Department The Mathematics department, under the direction of Mr. Ralph D. McLeary, who has come to this school rather recently, consists of eight teachers: Miss Madeline Anderson, Mr. Harold Bates, Miss Marion Bates, Miss Helen Collins, Mr. Harry Downes, Mr. Thomas Fitzgerald, Miss Anna R. Liden, and Miss Florence-Gertrude Perkins. Lender the direction of this experienced staff, a high standard of work is maintained, with much of the emphasis, however, on the accomplishments of each individual pupil. Progress in the Math, d epartment shows in a new system installed this year for the first time. The entire junior year is devoted to geometry where previously that subject was taught only half the year. However, on one day every week all year the time is spent on algebra to prepare the students for the College Board Examinations in June. The courses which are offered in the Mathematics depart- ment are: two years of algebra, a year of plane geometry, and a year of senior mathematics which includes work in solid geometry, trigonometry and elementary analysis. The department has been seeking to develop a program of activity that will prove beneficial to each individual pupil whether he is planning to take the College Board examina- tions in mathematics or not. This science of exact knowl- edge and precise thinking is of inestimable value to those who will end their formal education with their work here in this high school, for they will have acquired the habit of I thinking clearly and acting logically as well as correctly. Throughout the 1938-39 school year nearly a thousand I earnest pupils were engaged in the study of mathematics as a part of their preparation for entrance into various institu- 1 tions of higher learning. Linder the competent direction of the staff of the Mathematics department these pupils worked faithfully toward mastering the complexities of algebra, the concepts and reasoning of geometry, and the analytic tech- nique of trigonometry. One aim is to lead its students into paths of precise thinking, as it is very important that all should acquire the habit of clear thinking in these times of change and unrest. The study of the various forms of logic that are used in the establishment of mathematical principles and the requirement of rigid proof of each new truth that is accepted serve to give the pupil an appreciation of the neces- sity of clear thinking and careful reasoning. For one who plans to take an active part in the development of new struc- tures through the medium of specialized work in the appli- cation of scientific thought to industrial and economic life, the mastery of the wide fields of mathematics is a require- ment which cannot be waived. Applications of some branch of mathematics are found on all sides of us as we look about the universe and our own small world with its great engin- eering works. Miss Collins Mr. Fitzgerald Mr. Downes Mr. Bates Miss Anderson 22 Miss Parker Miss Horn The art of application Miss Half. Art Department One of the biggest drawing cards in the field of electives , is the Art Department. Each year more and more students | from every curriculum elect this comprehensive course to augment their appreciation of the finer arts. For future com- mercial and home artists such courses as interior decorating, free-hand drawing, and household art are offered. Miss Parker, head of the department, Miss Hale and Miss Horn give all the instruction and keep every course interesting as well as fruitful. Outside the art rooms a long bulletin board, upon which are posted the products of our students’ hands. There are, as well, mounted pictures and art objects from other high schools on display so that the passer-by can get a view of the products of artistic talent each day. This year as a kind of group project, several of the best students have finished the last two of a series of six stained glass windows for our auditorium. To allow the students insight on their work, Miss Parker has conducted several visits to Mr. Connick’s studio in Boston. Here they were able to receive first-hand information on stained glass and to ob- serve how it is made. As usual many Brookline Students entered the S. P. C. A. poster contest and again fine teaching and natural talent brought top awards to many. Vernon Scott, Ann Converse, Catherine MacDonnell, Walter Szulc, Grace Germain, and Blossom Sisenwain received first prizes of bronze, blue- ” Abide by . . . ribboned medals. Second prizes of bronze, red-ribboned medals went to Matthew Young, Edith Sheldon, John Nor- ton, and Mary Schnare. Jean Loughran, Elizabeth Carolan, Helen Paine, and Dorothy Durno will be sent a year’s sub- scription to the organization’s magazine as honorable men- tion awards. As an innovation this year, the Art Department partici- pated in the radio program of B. H. S., conducting a whole broadcast as a body, with students and teachers speaking. Students who take art are important cogs in our school machinery working for Murivian, Sagamore, and dramatic presentations. Thus the school affords practice for boys and girls who wish it, while the Art Department provides excel- lent teaching and materials. About two hundred B. H. S. students take Art courses of every type each year, and the popularity of this cultural subject has increased almost daily as the boys and girls of the school through art work in activities and the prominent, pleasing displays on the art bulletin board, get a clear idea of the worth of such a course. Altogether, Brookline High School’s Art Department has a finger in the pie’’ of almost every school activity and in- stead of pulling out plums, this finger is pushing them in. Miss Parker and her two assistants present cultural courses enhanced by progressive teaching and a pleasing atmosphere with the result that real skill and talent are developed. . . . the Golden Rule” 23 Mr. Atticks Mr. Blanchard Miss Berriman Miss Poland Mr. Ehnes Commercial Department One of the most practical departments in the School is the Commercial Department, which yearly sends out some trained office workers fully equipped with a working knowl- edge of modern business practice. Four years of shorthand, typing, bookkeeping, law and economics fit one directly for a position in the business world. Being one of the best equipped departments in the School, instruction in all manner of modern business machines is offered. Over one hundred typewriters provide an opportunity for practice to all typists, while more advanced work is done with Bur- roughs and Monroe Calculators, the ediphone, dictaphone, adding machine, bookkeeping machine and mimeographs. This work gives the basic skills needed in office work, while the theoretical part is provided by courses of Business law, simple economics, bookkeeping and allied subjects. Students are given several chances to apply their knowl- edge even while they are still learning, which is one of the best possible methods. One of these opportunities is the secretary work done for the teachers and the administrative department. Teachers who request help are assigned a stu- dent secretary who types manuscripts, transfers marks and performs many other offices of a similar nature. From these willing workers come the mimeographed sheets, used in many classes, which bear only the legend ' Cut by . . .” to indicate the large amount of time devoted by these students in helping make the School run efficiently and economically. The other signal service of this department to the general good is the Central Treasury System. This represents the pooled financial resources of all the Brookline High School activities. The money is banked in one account, part in a savings account drawing interest and the rest being available in a checking account. The job of keeping the accounts foi all the various clubs at the same time and keeping them from getting mixed is successfully handled by a student staff. Chief Bookkeeper for this year is Norma Freedman, assistee by typists Alice Alden and Glenna Easton. They work in close cooperation with the individual treasurers elected by the various organizations, and with various members of the Commercial Faculty, who act as advisers and supervisors. The Student Employment Bureau comes under the juris- diction of this department, helping graduates and students to locate jobs of all types. Up to May of this year about twenty-five pupils had been placed in offices, banks or stores. Sixty-seven girls were given after-school positions caring for children or doing various jobs about the house. During the holidays ten pupils secured temporary positions through the School office. This work is under the direction of Miss Emma Poland and of Mr. Ehnes. The entire organization is under the able leadership of Mr. Kelsey Atticks, to whom muci of the credit for building up this, the most practical of our departments, is due. Miss Greenshields Miss Maguire Miss Nickerson Miss Hamblin 24 Mr. Bemis Miss Allen Miss Sherman Mr. Ball Physical Education Department d Bane of most incoming freshmen is the big brick building aposite Cypress playground which houses the Physical Edu- ition Department. The hard work and exercise necessary )r the building of the body beautiful does not at first exactly lease the fancy of Brookline yearlings. However, by the me the senior year rolls around, all realize that from their ork in this field have come perhaps the most lasting benefits jquired during the school career. They realize, too, that lay is mingled with work; and visits to the Municipal Gym- asium furnish one of the most popular periods of the school eek. The purpose of the Physical Education Department is ae same today as always, to develop general health as the est guarantee of mental alertness, believing firmly in Hie logan. All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.” If he energy and cheerful effort of the instructors are any indi- ation, there should be very few dull Jacks at B. H. S. In recent years, the department, under the leadership of Director Thomas H. Hines, has so broadened its scope and b modernized gym” that we now have a comprehensive TOgram in physical education that few schools can match, early medical examinations are given the student from he time he enters kindergarten until graduation from high chool. This serves as a valuable check on physical condition, ften discovering and helping to remedy serious defects. Within the past two seasons, these have been supplemented by physical fitness tests known as the P. F. I. (often called by quipsters poor fool’s invention”) . These determine one’s ali-round power in proportion to age and weight. Class work is based on results. This year, for the first time, boys with high P. F. I.’s were excused from regular drill. Those with low scores receive special attention. Program changes are made to afford extra periods of gym; and these, coupled with increased rest, lightened academic loads, and afternoon sports have worked wonders in bringing such boys up to normal. With physical ability and needs known, physical educators and subject teachers alike can classify their pupils and find reason for failures. In addition, the department presides over the well-varied field of sports offered Brookline students. In conducting them, no attempt is made to drive the athletes merely for the sake of winning. Good health, clean play, and fine sports- manship are the qualities fostered. Goal of all Red and Blue standard bearers is the big ”B” which adorns the chests of members of the boys’ athletic teams and the old English letter displayed by those girls who have garnered five hundred points from af ternoon sports. This year a widely acclaimed innovation in the form of intra-mural basketball was gotten underway, and an entire range of intra-mural sports is hoped for in the future. Mr. Dunn Miss Kelley Miss Tierney Mr. Brown Miss Hannon The Speech Department Brookline High has earned the title of pioneer” in the field of voice training, dramatics, and forensics. This is due in large measure to the unstinting labor of Miss Louise Hannon, a former member of the English faculty before she devoted all her time to Speech work. She brought a new approach to the subject which is unique and a great improve- ment over the old methods of teaching elocution”. The fundamentals are taught not from textbooks but in lecture form. Soon after these prerequisites, however, the periods are devoted to student work, with dramatic selections, extemporaneous speeches and debates predominating. Once again a departure is made and instead of the usual classroom procedure, a dramatic workshop method is employed in which the students comment and make suggestions. This general procedure is continued through the first year with special lectures on the principles of debate, on specialize: problems and other pertinent matters. In the Advanced Speech course, open to those who have successfully passed Elementary Speech or been advanced afe the first quarter by the faculty adviser, a similar course followed. More attention is given to individual work, hov ever, and panel discussions of current topics are featurei In producing public performances the training gained a these classes account for much of Brookline’s renown in al branches of public speaking. Special classes are held for those with speech defects ani under Miss Hannon’s careful instruction many faults are overcome. All this work is of a caliber far above the averag and in this department Brookline has had a high reputatio: for many years. Hats off to an outstanding department! Miss South Miss Burnham Miss Egan DOMESTIC SCIENCE DEPARTMENT Progress is certainly prevalent in the Domestic Science De- partment. Two new modern laboratories accommodate 40 pupils and are connected by a dining room seating 10 pupils; a locker room for department pupils, and Mrs. Potter’s office complete the suite. Another progressive step is the fact that both gas and electric stoves are provided in order that pupils shall become familiar with both methods of cooking. Pro- gress in the knowledge of foods has been very great within the past 10 years. Instruction in the department is based on this modern knowledge of nutrition. Skills in the pre- paration and service of foods are developed, and marketing principles taught. Next year House management and House Nursing will replace Foods in the 2 upper classes. Home Economics offers a broad field for girls to train as teachers, Food Managers, and workers. The Domestic Science de- partment opens the way for many grades of positions. NEEDLEWORK DEPARTMENT Miss Burnham, Miss Egan, and Miss Dorman direct the Needlework Department situated in the M. T. building. Under them the freshman do simple dress making, the sopho- mores, household materials, linens, towels, and bureau scarfs the juniors, more advanced dress making, and the seniors can have their choice of dress making or needlework. The latter consists of the making of luncheon sets, chair sets, and bed- room sets. Many beautiful embroidery works are accom plished by these students, also. An ante-room is used when the students study textiles. All the fibers, silks, real and arti ficial, wool, cotton, and linen are displayed in all their pro- cesses of refinement. A great help at Class Day is this de- partment for they help the marshals and aides with their costumes. The Needlework Department is ever progressing onward, accomplishing more beautiful and complicated ar- ticles each year. 26 Mr. Frif.dland German Department The work of the German Department is under the expert ection of Mr. Diepold Friedland, w ' ho is a native of Ger- my and a very accomplished linguist. Listening to Mr. tedland ' s fine accents, the students of Brookline High iooI have found that well-spoken German is very pleasing the ear, although there is a popular tendency to regard rman as a harsh, discordant language. In 1934 Mr. Fried- id first took charge of the department when Miss Bailey ik her leave of absence; he now carries the entire weight the department on his own shoulders. The size of the department immediately after the World ar reflected the anti-German sentiment that was so com- on in this country at that unfortunate period. The German epartment has slowdy grown, and is continuing to increase spite of the recent European developments w ' hich have nded to decrease the number of students in this country ing German as one of their subjects. This commendable owth of the department is evidence that the students of Brookline High School are above being swayed by emotional and political controversies and have chosen German as a language of culture and of the sciences. Since only a few of this department’s pupils plan to take the College Board examinations, it has been possible for the activities of the German students to follow broader paths than if they w r ere limited by the requirements of the College Entrance Examination Board. At the present time the German Department offers three years of German, but efforts are being made to extend the department to include a fourth year. In addition to study of advanced German authors, the third year class is enli- vened by Mr. Friedland’s friendly feud wdth Allan Offen. The proposed fourth year would include cultural instruction and reading old German classics. Under the direction of this department is Die Deutsche Gesellschajt or German Club, which is active in promoting interest in German customs and life. Mr. Burbank Gabriel, blow your horn! Mr. Joslin Music Department An organization both harmonious and on key is our up- d-coming Music Department. Mr. Joslin is its only in- uctor, handling every class in music himself. He has de- loped a variety of courses wdiich may now r be taken by the jsic-lovers of B. H. S. How r ever, this subject is an elected e and therefore optional with the student. To pupils in the Civic Curriculum a variety of courses is ered. Music appreciation, the elementary theory of music, 2 history of this intriguing subject, and the progress and velopment of music, as w ' ell as a course in the study of ferent types of music are the chief ones. Each of these are cen five periods a week, and thus are treated as seriously any other subject, elective or not. Sonatas, operas, church isic, symphonies, folk dances, and other types of compo- ion are carefully studied and explained, so as to promote each individual a sincere love for classical music and a irst for even further knowdedge of this practically inex- haustible subject. In this manner Civic students get a taste of the fine art of music, and may go on to devour the sub- ject avidly. To students in the Social Arts Curriculum music apprecia- tion is offered, and is taken for five periods each week as a major subject. This course has succeeded in aiding their aesthetic appreciation of good music to a great degree. By effecting such progress, it has proved itself most necessary to our school life. To those students who have a knowdedge of the mech- anics of music already, a course in harmony may be elected. This subject takes up the study of complex chords, analysis of tune, and many other technicalities of music. Teaching old subjects in a fascinating manner and ever introducing new ones, Mr. Joslin has made the Music De- partment one of the most progressive in the school. At the present rate, more teachers wdll be needed. 27 Mr. McIntosh J Mr. Bridgham Mr. Holton Mr. Woodlock Mr. Edmunds Mr. Smith Mechanics Arts Depart ent Not content with schooling its students purely in the cul- tural side of life, Brookline High School yearly furnishes its proud quota of master-craftsmen to the industrial world through the courses offered by the Mechanics Arts Depart- ment. With new fields constantly being opened up through the creation of new businesses and scientific developments, Brookline has remained on the alert, carefully relaying to its future artisans the latest equipment and techniques for the manual skills. The industrial revolution of the nineteenth century was a mere tempest in a tea-pot compared to the modernizing changes which swept over this department in 1939. The automobile department acquired a power drill press, a steel ramp over which cars may be driven in and out of the building, and oxy-acetylene welding outfit to tram pupils for this fast-growing profession. The electricity department re- ceived a static machine, and the machine department a motor- driven two-wheel grinder, universal milling machine, Rock- ford direct-drive engine lathe. To the printing department went two storage benches, a paper punch or drill, router machine, stitcher or binder; to the woodworking outfit, a belt Sander, spindle sander, and ten-inch circular saw. Other equipment set up for the benefit of the several specialized subdivisions of the department included electric motors, a generator, transformer, and other electric power units for the electrical department; a linotype machine for the printing department; another engine lathe for the machine depan ment; and new power tools for the woodworking depar ment. All is not simply a vast jungle of clacking machine; whirring wheels, and buzzing wires, however, in the Mann. Training Building. The men behind these machines, tb faculty of the Mechanics Arts Department, are as competes and skilled instructors as the proudest trade school can boa;: Working under Mr. Minot Bridgham, able director of ft: department, are the Messrs. Guy O. Edmunds, Arthur C Holton, Everett McIntosh, Carl A. Smith, and Frederic Woodlock, every one a specialist in his field. Under the: capable tutelage, fumbling hands acquire steadiness, an; mere novices soon learn to fashion useful articles of hi:: quality. Thus an enjoyable and instructive outlet is give: the mechanically minded boy. Those unable to go on ft college need have little fear of facing the outer world unite pared, for with the practical experience gleaned in the course of the Mechanics Arts Department they are equipped to tab up a trade as capable workmen. The work of the Mechanics Arts Department has bee exemplary of the fine cooperation maintained between tbs various units which make up B. H. S. On such a firm mechanical foundation, Brookline students are sure to rai;: a mighty structure. Houses 29 Junior Department Mrs. Heusner Three goals are the aim of the Junior Department of Brookline High School: First, securing a grammar-school diploma for each boy and girl; second, making an educa- tional shopwork; third, developing a social adjustment be- tween the grade school and the high school. In our Junior Department, there are about fifty boys and girls who are candidates for a grammar-school diploma, and at the same time are carrying regular high-school subjects. Art, speech, mechanics, and civics are included in these students’ curri- culums. Remedial reading is greatly emphasized. All the Junior Department work centers around this type of educa- tion. Other major subjects carried by the boys and girls are the fundamentals in arithmetic and English, consisting o: spelling and grammar. This year this group is truly as mud a part of the high school as the five houses. The Junio: Department has members in the Girls’ League and other out for sports, Ann Converse starring in the latter field. In addition to training its regular students, the Junior Depart ment is always willing to serve the rest of the school Those having difficulty with certain subjects may find their problems made easy here. We are glad these Juniors art with us and we are proud of the work Mrs. Heusner anc Mr. MacDonald are helping them accomplish as they norm- ally make advance to full high-school standing.

Albert Seamans, master of Roberts House, has guided exceptional freshman class through a remarkable first and is looking forward to higher achievement still, s house is proving itself worthy of Dr. Arthur Roberts, 5-time head of the Latin Department here and an out- iding scholar and gentleman, with eight students on the Honor Roll. All A” students in Roberts House were: le Warren, Phyllis Scheffreen, Barbara Alpern, Julian len, Shirley Applebaum, Robert Langer, Frederick Hol- . and Ida Hirshberg. These students excelled in other is, for the class officers are Robert Langer, Shirley Apple- m. Jeanne Rogers, and Frederick Holton. Robert Langer is the Roberts House representative in the Court of Justice and the School Council. Roberts House has made a fine start in athletics. In more cultural activities, however, Roberts House really made its mark. Phyllis Scheffreen won Prize Speaking. Rosanne Saftel and Vera Kassman joined the Orpheus Ensemble. Jeanne Rogers fiddled away in the school orchestra. Vera Kassman, Elaine Penn, Phyllis Scheffreen, Jack Dreyfuss, and Robert Langer appeared in Disraeli, and Elaine Penn had the feminine lead. The Roberts House Council was very successful in collecting class dues, and also adopted an original constitution to govern the house. Fame is theirs for sure!

The big basket of food anc the check that this room sent to the poor last Christmas speak well for their civic consciousness. The careful fore thought of Miss Celina Lewis, homeroom teacher, is dis cer ruble in the gift. She guides her room with a firm an; wise hand, and is well-liked among the pupils. Outstanding among these are Julian Cohen, homeroom chairman, and Marcia Cohan. The Room claims four Honor Rollers and one of the most on-your-toes rooms in the Freshman House ROOM 316 hy do we have such good times together in Room 3 each morning. It s partly due to Mr. Newsom, our sune isor, but mostly to Raymond Blue’s remarkable sense , and m MarF C take our roo and Mart n Cauper to assist him.

ROOM 319 ly, we think our homeroom, 319, is one of the ders of Roberts House. Jack Dreyfuss not only keeps up school spirit in our room, but in the rest of the house also. • is very athletic and participates in Dramatics. Stanley Idberg is homeroom chairman, Helen Dillon Red Cross presentative, and Rose Marie Farkas holds down two posi- ; ' ns, Girls’ League Homeroom Representative and Bank j.ler. We have a bashful boy, Warner Dalzell. and two Ichestra members, Helen Ebell and Jacquelin Edmunds, lother factor to put us among the leaders is our competent r. Bartlett. ROOM 320 Styles of study have changed. When one enters 320 Tore school, one hears the busy drone of studying”, not ie classic silent, solitary struggle. This is no reflection on Irs. Annette Harvey’s mentorship, which is of the first rder. She was ill during the early part of the year and er room remembered her with flowers and good wishes, tomeroom chairman, Richard Freeman, and Gerald Giller- lan are prospective Alpha Pi’s. Star athlete of the boys is imes Ford and among the girls, Minna Golden and Shirley ose Freedman. ROOM 322 Watch Room 322 in the years to come. Among us are Bob Langer, president of Roberts House, Alan Larsen, Pierre Kotas, and Richard Korn, producers of music, with Vera Kassman in the Orpheus Ensemble, and Barbara Kinney, Girls ' League homeroom representative. Joan Kerwin is chairman assisted by Tome Kendrick. Small Joe Kenny is floating around somewhere while Selma Kravit and Ted Lally keep up a steady conversation. The novel idea of form- ing a noise club” to be held after school was suggested by Mr. Holton. A president was elected and anyone causing disturbances is eligible for membership. ROOM 323 As we enter our homeroom each morning, we glance at the names of our four honor students printed on the black- board: Florence Levanthal, Vita London, Ruth Lippa, and Joan Leamy. Besides receiving all A’s” and B’s”, Ruth Lippa is an accomplished pianist, Florence attends afternoon sports, and Vita and Joan are active members of the Girls’ League. The Roberts House Council includes Ann Mackey, Ralph Mann is a member of the orchestra, and Tillie Lally is our athlete.

Lionel Perlo carries on in much the same way talking endlessly over nothing. With a striking contrast we look to Roger Palmer, the quietest lad in the class. Herbert O Rourke is our honor roll student and Betty Neilson, our athlete. She is also the early bird” of Room 326, for she is always the first one to take her seat each morning. We all sit with rapt attention when Dennis O ' Leary stands up to speak — we love to listen to his Irish brogue. Three girls are always after our money, Irene Miller for class dues. Ida Monkin for the Girls’ League, and Marv Murphy for the Red Cross. Although we are a miscellaneous collection, we are a good one. ROOM 328 Composing the noisy section of Room 328 are four girls, Edith McCauley, Rosalie McEwan, Lorraine McCarthy, and Evelyn McGanty. Miss Campbell has her hands full keeping these talkative creatures from causing too many disturbances. Of this bunch Evelyn is by far the most loquacious, Lor- raine sings decidedly well, we all think Edith is cute, and everyone likes Rosalie. Robert Mealy is our homeroorr. chairman, thus attending the Roberts House Council mee; ings and his name appears on the first Honor Roll as well Claire McManus haunts the Girls ' League Room and come back to tell us what is the interesting news of that worth organization. We have three people out of the ordinary ir. our room: one boy, Alan Morrison, extremely polite, and the other two are twins, George and Ellis Morton. ROOM 327 Pi ■ Nearly half the year Miss Robertson coached us, but afte: the Christmas vacation Mrs. Ginty stepped into her place The sole member of Room 327 to participate in Dramatics was Elaine Penn, who played Clarissa” in Disraeli. Henrv Rivitz and Mark Raverby continually gain distinction by hav- ing their names appear on the Honor Roll. Edith Parker is Red Cross Representative for the girls and participates in afternoon sports. Mounting high in the favor of the Girls League is Dorsey Parker, who collected each girl’s S.20 at the beginning of the year and keeps us on our toes concerning their affairs. Peter Powers arises earlier than usual even other Tuesday morning, Arthur Rittenberg plays in the orchestra, and Fred Ray sees that each wears a red cross.

Charles Shapiro attends e Roberts House Council meetings while Adele Sanger and enry Selib represent the Girls’ and Boys ' Leagues respec- cely. The two exceptions to our seemingly perfect home om provide us with much laughter each morning. The ■st is the library slips that Adele Sidman receives daily ithout fail and the second is Charles Sooy’s frequent late- ;ss. ROOM 426 Individuality, initiative, and noisiness constitute the char- ter of most of the inhabitants of Room 426. Sydelle Singer ems to be the most brilliant, receiving all A’s” and carry- g the duties of homeroom chairman. Two more active embers in our class are Adele Tischler, representative for e Girls’ League, and Arnold Ulin for the Boys’. We have not yet become very well acquainted with Edward Spivack, for he spends more of his time in Mr. Seaman’s office than he does with us. So far, 30% seems to be our goal in bank- ing, but in buying Sagamores we’re A No. 1 pupils — Miss Deal sees to that. Friday mornings are the exceptions to our clamorous room, for we are all deeply engrossed in the above mentioned paper. ROOM 427 Climbing up each morning to our lofty heights on the fourth floor puts all us members in a dizzy frame of mind and very short of breath, but we seem to manage to get along somehow as is indicated by our first honor roll student, Ann Warren. Then there is Peter Young, who keeps our home- room going, and who is tops as an athlete — a football, basketball, and baseball player. Jeanne Williams and Robert Waterman pass out the little red crosses to all those who helped in that worthy cause; while Robert Weiner is kept busy every other Tuesday morning with the money rolling in. Doris Wilson keeps up the athletic part of room 427 for the girls. Eleanor Weeks is busy downstairs with the many and various Girls’ League affairs, and Mr. Cooper, the leader of our room, keeps all running evenly and smoothly.

We are represented among our house officers by Jeanne Rogers, who is secretary, and who has also been steadily on the Honor Roll, in the orchestra, participates in sports, and is homeroom representative for the Girls’ League. Others on that list of honor pupils are Frederick Rogers and Robert Rosenberg, who is a member of the Council as well. Joseph Samuels collects money for the Bank, Cary Schaffer for the Boys League, and Betty Rosenberg and Richard Rosen for the Red Cross. Eddie Ryan is the athlete of Room 424, for he captained our homeroom basketball team. ROBERTS HOUSE SUMMARY The foremost homerooms are those that realize the a| tages that the school has to offer, and show their spii: participating in the various activities. The homerooms taining the most bank depositors are 321, first; 327, see and 425, third. The most Murivians were sold in the fo ing: 427, 424, 322, 321, and 316. Displaying their virr vitality by winning the homeroom basketball tourname Roberts House are the pupils of Room 317. On mark one quarter, Room 315 excelled in that not a person f in any subject.

Its officers are Paul Perkins, Vin- c Leahy, Sally Willis, and Walter Cooper. Paul Perkins I Shirley Helman are the School Council representatives, ile Paul and Jim Feinberg are members of the Court of tice. The House Council has been active, backing a iler Mothers’ Tea and opening an early campaign for ;s dues. Paul Perkins, Helen Wish, Edna Morrison, Ed- i Frank, and Morton Swartz have made the first Honor 1 this year, and Edwin Frank has been elected the first sident of the Boys’ Club. ffiere are four Shailer members on the Sagamore Staff: ;h Rosenthal, Stanley Goff, Eldon Cohen, and L. Kat- Prize Speaking had only one Shailer participant. Helen Wieselberg, who received honorable mention. Positions of importance were also held by Beverly London, vice president of the Girls’ League and assistant treasurer of the French Club; Jane Drisc oll, president of the Foods Club and secretary of the Girls’ League; Tom Taylor, floor-captain for Shailer marshals. This House does honor to the heritage of its name. The Reverend William Shailer, for fifteen years an outstanding member of the School Committee and one of the prime mov- ers in the establishment of a high school in Brookline, might well be proud of this promising Class of the School he helped to build.

ROOM 213 Room 213 contains the most miscellaneous group of indi- viduals in Shailer House. We not only have such students as John Brennan, who manages to beat the teacher to school, but we have Sonny Blake, who comes to school about once a week to see if he’s missed — he isn’t. Helen Bracken is our bank messenger and also the Girls’ League Representative; the athletes: Brown, Blue, Bahn, and Callahan; scholars: Brown, Byer, Bracken, and Boyce. But without Miss Green- shields our class would not be one of the outstanding in Shailer House. ROOM 212 Quite a model homeroom is 212. First there is Miss Nickerson, who makes us want to strive always onward. Toby Berman and James Bagley take care of the scholastic accomplishments; and Jane Adams, the athletic part. Keep- ing us on our toes concerning the various House activities is Marshall Arnson and Helen Abrams is watching out for all Girls’ League affairs. The orchestra claims Leonard Banash, Mary Bell, and Marton Aspinwall. We are a good example to others. ROOM 214 Our teacher, Miss Maguire, calling us by name Always has some trouble; they’re mostly all the same. She must say, Pris and Eldon! I want to have some peac I have to take attendance; will this talking never cease Though some have made third honor roll, just Amy has dor better, Sarah Cohen is our belle, boys have you ever met her? As we have mentioned but a few, the rest should get soir, credit. And we know in future years, that they’ll be sure to get: ROOM 217 Ever onward”, Shailer House motto is carried out t Room 217 with the aid of Miss Berriman and by our foil honor roll students: Bernice Diamond, Constance Colpitt Frank Dick, and Richard Coradeski. Barbara Davidoi dashes from room to room as bank messenger. Jack Crave and Isabel Easton collect Red Cross money, and we neve know which is Jane or which is Dotty Driscoll, our rec headed twins. Brilliant Frank Dick leads us Ever Onward while Walter Cooper is busy with the amounts in his offida position of House treasurer. Room 214: 217 ROW 1 : Cleary, Cunningham, Cates, Dunn, E. Cohen, A.

Item number one — ” ROOM 219 Presenting 219 — a galaxy of stars in the making. Headed • Herbert Ellis, chairman, and George Flashenberg, vice lairman, we get under way with a marshal force consisting c Jim Feinberg and the two chairmen. Edwin Frank is our ink teller and President of the Boys’ Feague. Ruth Goldman illects our money for the Red Cross; Stan Goff holds down i important position on the Sagan ore, while Len Freed and an Feer swing it” with the orchestra and band. Much edit to our leader, Miss Hamlin. ROOM 226 Like Gaul, divided into three parts, is our home room 16 — the students, the athletes, and those who carry on jtsidc activities. To the first class belong Leon Katzeff, •orothy Israel, and Paul Lewis; while to the second is that aming top-notch Alice Joyce, who is the bank teller as well, id Mickey Lally for the boys. Ruth Kerrigan’s time is iken up with Girl Scouts, Girls ' League, and Shader House ouncil Meetings. Mr. Wilkinson is the lord and master f our little domain, and we owe our success in Shailer louse to him. ROOM 221 Practically every member of our room has some interest. Kathleen Greenwood is the chairman; Shirley Helman and Richard Grenier, the Red Cross representatives; Rhoda Gor- don, the banker; and Ruth Haase and Sumner Gordon repre- sent the Girls’ and Boys’ League, respectively. By far the smallest in Shailer House is tiny Joe Gurwitz, bank messenger for Shailer House, and coming dramatic star. Tom Hunter tallied a good part of the points for the swimming team, while Lawrence Hickey won the Septathalon in track. ROOM 227 Quoting Mr. Merrill, this undistinguished home room”, we think, has quite a few distinguished people. First is that all-round boy, Vincent Leahy, athletic, studious, and exceedingly popular. Here comes double trouble, the two Londons, Beverly and Sara; the former keeps us informed of various club activities, and the latter, as a regular before school ceremony, powders her nose. We possess Lyman Lehrburger and Bill Mahoney, early organizers of the Boys’ Club and Bob Lind, our homeroom chairman. Look out! She ' s dangerous!

Ellen Mclnerny keeps us laughing with her remarks about her numerous boy-friends. Garrulous Barbara McKenzie is characterized by her verboseness. Our talent goes to Dick McLaughlin, who shines in football and hockey and Jose- phine McCarthy, leader of our band, and to Albert Mickels and Jean Miller, representatives of the Boys’ Club and Girls’ League, respectively, and to Margaret McElroy who helps us save our nickels and dimes. ROOM 230 Be it ever so humble there’s no place like the home room, although with Mr. Totman presiding, the atmosphere is anything but humble. Glancing around some morning, you might see petite Audrey Mishel gossiping amiably; Marjorie Olston immersed in some last minute homework; Virginia Moor mourning about a lost love; Evelyn Orde chattering busily; and on bank days, our teller, Vincent Nagle, efficiently counting the money. The two marshals, Edna Morrison and Dorothy O ' Hearn, are our star pupils, as well as Florence Moore.

As a start, we ive vou Paul Perkins, President of Shailer House for his icond consecutive year, a great scholar and an athlete. We ave in our midst two marshals, Eleanor Rice and Theodore erkins. Ruth Radio’s eloquence in speech is displayed when ie informs us of the Girls’ League socials and teas. For ie enjoyment section of our room there is Phyllis Pignato, talented singer, while Edna Polis ' artificial nails keeps us nused. We even have a love affair, for Dorothy Rambrose id Harold Robinson seem to get along. ROOM 232 Most worthy of mention is Room 232. Due to Miss Bliss’ equent encouragements we have done away with almost 1 failures. Erich Rosenthal, homeroom chairman, has at st found out that it does not take seven or eight minutes reach his marshal post on time. Sara Seltzer regularly shes in at 8:29 and then, all out of breath, makes speeches out the Girls’ League. Alfred Saltzman and Erich Rosen- al carry the honors of the class, and every morning Miss iss has to look twice to see if tiny Irma Rosengard is esent. The pied piper Nice map, isn’t it!

Morton Swartz is on the first honor roll and is a musician besides. We possess the giant of the school, that superman, Stan Spector, and every once in a while Paul Sperling actually arrives at school before the first period begins. Dave Small is H. R. Repre- sentative to the Shailer House Council and Betty Simons seems to be Representative to every possible activity in the school, but manages to do them all equally well. ROOM 234 Retnarkable is the word that exactly suits Room 234, for we possess many such individuals. The first is Sally Willis, a most versatile girl. Handsome Tom Taylor is a marshal, assistant homeroom chairman, and is prominent in many school affairs. Representing the House Council is Robert Watchmaker, and the bank money is given to Joseph Wil- liams. Little Helen Wish has made the first honor roll and is a success at athletics despite her smallness. Last, but not least by any means and fitting right into our class of outstanding persons, is Mr. August C. Miller, our supervisor.

S. with Aim lgh ' for a motto, is efficiently fulfilling every aim. The name and spirit of Dr. John C. Packard should cer- nnly be a worthy inspiration for high aims. With the af- ection that comes to one who has served long and well, irookline citizens honor his name and personality. As head f our Science Department for over forty years, this scholarly entleman designed the B. H. S. laboratories and also funded a House, both bearing his name. The Packard House Council is composed of seventeen lembers representing the 450 students as homeroom repre- mtatives. At bi-monthly meetings, this group discusses common problems with President George Hibbard presiding, and Bill Herwitz ad-libbing. The collection of class dues has been very successful keeping treasurer Shirley Gordon busy count- ing the quarters. Margaret Dopp and Dorothy Atlas fill the remaining of- fices as vice president and secretary respectively. Now that the new building is in use, Packard House has finally been united. Previously the homerooms were scattered about as a result of the fire which destroyed the Packard House sec- tion. This year, as a special event in the year’s program, the assembly with Ed Meehan in charge was in the form of a quiz broadcast, which proved very amusing and very success- ful.

M. and Room 200 is just starting to see some life — Marge Babbitt babbling about the Latin she didn ' t do, Howard Bensusan forever selling tickets, and Mr. Wood- lock always ready for a joke. We could not mention this home room without Dot’ ' Atlas’ name appearing, for she’s just about everything — Packard’s house secretary, secretary and treasurer of the English Club, and wearer of a strip of red and blue around her arm. Our brother and sister roomies’ furnish us our laughing moments every day of the week. ROOM 307 Third floor — new building — third room on the left- number 306 — is the home of 32 boys and girls under the capable hand of Madamoiselle Perrin. Beth Peabody has lent her services to the school as the Girls’ League secretary Lois Philips and June Newman are active in the Girls ' League, and Phoebe Orlick — will she never stop talking? Next we turn to that illustrious man about town’’. Who is he? Why Edward Nixon, our 1939 football captain. Trying his hardest to make the quarters roll in is Edward Moran, who also keeps us amused with his witticisms and remarks. Participates in many of the school activities are fre- quenters of 307. Phyllis Rosen attends the Packard House Council ; Barbara Rogers has been a necessary part of the Sagamore for quite some time, as well as helping Phyllis with her duties; and Herbert Offen drags himself from his bed earlier than usual every other Tuesday morning to be banker. We have a queer situation in Carol Reiner, who is invariably absent on Mondays; why, we don’t know. Miss Pfleghaar keeps us in order, while Sally Reichert keeps us interested in the current events of the school. ROOM 208 Even though a great many of us have not contributec much to school at large, still we have our stars. There is Irwin Goden trying his hardest to make us save our pennies at the same time that Eddie Gill is urging us on to more school spirit, but with equally little success. A few others worthy of praise are Richard Graham, athlete, and Louise Ginsberg, conducting Gir ls’ League affairs, member of Alphe Pi and an honor student. Someday Mr. Shepard will be able to get us roused and stirred to action. 44 I ROOM 310 )om 310, newly formed this year, is ably governed by Tartakoff, our chairman. Norman Stearns takes care of tanking with Bunny Snow assisting, while Thelma Stone, ile Stern and Marilyn Smith take care of each day’s gos- Our room can boast of two basketball stars — Joe Sullivan Lou Stoia. Ann Sloper provides the humor by dashing very morning just at 8:30. By the way, if you want to te Bunny Solomon, you’ll find him behind a borrowed ■more. Even Mr. Mather’s isn’t safe. ROOM 204 hdden in a far west corner stands our Room 204 with s Wood in charge. Glancing around we see Earl Hoffman to accomplish an hour’s Latin in 5 minutes; Jake” ursky making up a few winks of lost sleep; Joseph Hyams rying about his hard French tests; and Bob” Kaplan ;ng about what the Packard House Council told him to The girls’ side of the room is buzzing with, Did you that fellow June was with last night?” Perhaps it’s a d thing this room is so well hidden. ROOM 202 Calling all students! Take note of homeroom 202. They are a thrifty bunch of girls and boys but they keep their thrift at home as can easily be seen by the banking chart which Armando Cavallo shamefully hangs up every other 1 uesday morning. Each morning Miss Geneva Chamber- lain s Taisez-vous, s’il vous plait” steers the room on the right course. Taking the honors in the field of athletics is Robert Carroll. Marjorie Bernson leads the homeroom on and occupies a position on the House Council. ROOM 206 Standing on a par with any other home room in the school is Room 206. We have for our chairman John Gallagher with Evelyn Ferngold as his assistant. She provides us with amusement each morning for she strolls, not rushes, in at a few seconds before the sound of the bell. That redheaded youth Arnie Frye brings fame to our honored name by his athletic powers on the football field with John Gallagher doing likewise. Just ask Miss Placido for recom- mendations for any of us. Room 310: 204 W 1: Hoare, Sisenwain, Kahn, Stranahan, Sulkin, Sloper, Hutchins, Stearns, Swaebe, Hurwitz, nson, Hoye, Hobden.

With three changes in the past, room 305 has finally found a place to rest its weary children. With Mr. Barnes at the head, our room carries on success- fully. Jeanne Newman is our scholar. Eddy Meehan and Jean Mcllveen are the athletic members of the homeroom. Jason Marks shows dramatic ability. Anne Moore, Olive Martin are our marshals. Marion Montague sailed for China in January. Evelyn Marnoy represents the Girls ' League in this homeroom; also she collects a few pennies every other Tuesday. ROOM 311 What a homeroom! Mae Verner is always giggling. Rosalie Van Everen and Martin Umans — are they really fighting or just pretending? Joanne Woods complains everlastingly about her hated council meetings, while Richard Wolff must have amassed quite a fortune by now. Sumner White has at last graduated from knickers to long pants, Tom Walsh blushes most easily, and Charles Whittaker hasn’t said a word in three years. Tom and Charles will soon gain poise under the influence of Miss Hale. ROOM 210 Naturally 210 is the best homeroom. It is the foremost one of Packard House in politics. From it have sprung sudi notables as President George Hibbard and Treasurer Shirley Gordon. To her fellow inmates Miss Donahue is, well- how feeble words are. We boast our own private triangle consisting of our kibitzers ”: homeroom chairman Billy Herwitz, Boris Haskell, and Billy’’ Hibel. Bobbie Handel- man and Jean Hamlin are wonderful audiences for each other as they go into raptures when discussing each date. Now, aren’t we pretty good? ROOM 300 A new teacher in a new homeroom and in a new building greeted us this year as we stepped into Room 300 and met Mr. Harry Downes, the football coach. Phyllis Rowe is one of our best attractions, as she has appeared in Dramatics more than once. Winny Rubin, Morton Reisman, and Hay- den Ringer are constant Honor Rollers, and during the spring season Eddie Riley is seen sliding into home-plate and also always into trouble. Hardly ever do we hear Frances Rutledge say a word, but when she does, we re always sure of a laugh. 46 ROOM 302 takes quite some time to find us, but it is certainly worth • while as you’ll see when you finally hit upon Room 302. the radio rehearsals take place here under the super- )ii of Mr. Gould. We contribute to the Marshal Force, trude Kramer, Vincent Lally, and Malcolm Katz, and to Girls ' League, Anita Konikow, who is athletic besides, hev Katz lends his services to the Bank, as teller of our n. and Jimmy Kelly his to the basketball team. We end ntroducing you to our chairman, Malcolm Katz, and vice irman. Bertha Kennedy. ROOM 309 [aunter down the third corridor sometime, and drop into i — a model home room, ably supervised by Miss Horn. • are seriously thinking of appropriating money: (l) to isform a corner of our room into a beauty parlor for bara Selib, who also does pretty well selling Sagamores ; I to buy Herbert Russcol a neck tie; (3) to invest in an rm clock for Betty Scott; and (4) to present a sum to library staff to pay for the library slips Justin Sharaf ?ives every day. Our athlete — Sylvia Schwamb, our Jent — Elaine Schneider, our leader — Chester Rubin. ROOM 308 Very little is here accomplished in the few spare moments before school starts. A dark figure Hies into the room and dives into his seat — our man of Aaron is late again with no excuse. Claire Caverly is busy with the fiddle and her numerous club activities. What is Tom Devlin doing and where is Arthur Cushing? They never seem to be in the right place! Frank Cuetera is embroiled in a conversation with Shirley Cohen — he never seems to get enough of her. Miss O’Brien tries her best to keep us quiet but oh what a noisy pack. ROOM 304 The doings of Room 304 center around Marshall Maltz- man, homeroom chairman, and Eloise Linscott, his assistant. The former’s name appears on the Honor Roll and latter is treasurer of the Girls’ League and plays tennis. Thelma Long is Bank teller, and Robert Levanson lends his aid as Red Cross Representative for the boys. Helen Lalooses pos- sesses the wit of the room, Jean Lefevre is quiet and shy, and Harvey Levine is our artist. The temperature of the pro- ceedings is regulated by Miss South of the Domestic Science Department.

He keeps us amused with his funny stories every morning. Bob Feinberg carries the job of chairman on his shoulders, and his assistant George Flessas lends his help whenever needed. As soon as Dot Durno and Tommy Edwards have collected our money for the Red Cross, then Harriet Dwork takes our last pennies so we will have them later on. Room 203 would not be complete without mentioning our class hero, Phil Duggan, Irma Drucker, the whiz at mathematics, or angel face Jackie Egan. Prominent in the Girls’ League is Marilyn David, homeroom representative for that organization who keeps us well informed of its doings and actions. So we are ever climbing to higher altitudes. PACKARD HOUSE SUMMARY With Eddy Meehan as a second Professor Quiz, Pack House conducted a question bee” assembly. Billy Adel acted as the announcer, and Philip Duggan, Eloise Linsc Patty McGovern, Maxine Albert, Justin Frankel, and mando Cavallo were the contestants. For most of the qi tions phonograph records were played, and the name of song and orchestra had to be given. Other questions d( with science, geography, and anything that a junior sho know. The contestants were not so brilliant as might be pected, and they found it easier to guess the music interro tions than the academic questions. The Packard House | chestra, composed only of members of the Junior Class plan harmoniously and well, and George Hibbard expressed appreciation of the enthusiasm displayed during this aff, 48 Mr. Smith Akers House the past four years Akers House, following its motto iga nulla restrorsum” or Never a backward step”, has wondrous progress. Taking the leadership from Mr. red Akers, who served as headmaster from September until June 1933, Miss Anna Liden has continuously per- ■d the duties of housemaster and has provided the spark ie advancement of the group. der the control of its officers the Akers House Council dd bi-monthly meetings. Leading the group were Dan- diff, president, and Grace Lupton, vice president, who eir election to the same offices of the graduating class, succeeded by James Shanahan and John Guillotte. ) Elinor Applebaum became secretary of the graduating her duties were taken up by Mary Kilduff. The finan- lanagement of Akers House has been handled by Alan Rosenberg. The council itself consists of twenty-five representatives from the various homerooms. In the planning and conduct- ing of several successful assembly periods has appeared the unique accomplishment of the Council. Features in these assemblies, headed by Maurice Blauer, have been the pre- sentation of talent by members of the class, swing music, for the first time by Mel Norton and his orchestra and the group singing of Akers House. A notable record is the fact that 22 members of the Band and Orchestra are members of Akers House. This is the highest percentage ever assembled from one House. Assisting the Council as faculty advisers have been Mr. Williams, Mr. Fitzgerald, and Mr. Friedland. With its fine record Akers House has left a high mark for the other houses to aim at.

In the athletic field we are represented quite thoroughly, Bill Kirrane for foot- ball, Hal Kushner, for starring as a hockey player, and Bob Jacobs for his skill in baseball. Janice Knoring is on the dance committee and has, as well, kept up a good average in her marks all along, while Gloria Kander has been most active in the Girls’ League.

ROOM 100 Graced with a constellation of stars, room 100 has the greatest amount of brains per square head of any home- room in High School, with two consistent first Honor Rollers — Bob Ulin and Dave Solomon — and several more on the lower Honor Rolls. The breadth of their conglom- erate genius covers the president and secretary of Alpha Pi, four of the late lamented staff of the Sagamore, the football manager, four members of the Murivian staff. The strain of keeping all this brain power in hand has exhausted four teachers in four years, but the current mentor, jovial Mr. Friedland, wisely leads the group which tries hard to sup- port its claim to be ' Aces in Akers.” 53 W here are the stirrers of yesterday?

ROOM 102 Sharing honors with only one other senior home room, in being the first to reside in the new building. Room 102 has. unfortunately, no class humorist to brighten the hours ' ' from 8:15 to 8:40 A. M. Despite the lack of a jester, the room contains various members who represent it faithfully in the school organizations. Foremost among these is Minnie Young, a member of the Akers House Council, ably assisted by her colleague Lea Wolff, who also serves as Girls’ League Home Room Representative. Our bank teller is Norton Wolf, an honest, upright financier. Filling the position of Good Samaritan is Kathleen White, who is Red Cross Rep- resentative for the girls, while her twin brother, George, collects money for the needy from the male members of Room 102. AKERS HOUSE SUMMARY An altogether new and different plan for the collect] of House dues was submitted by the Akers House Cour this year. It was called Bargain Week” and most of t pupils, seeing a real sale”, took advantage of this no idea. Bargain week notices were sprawled over all the bla boards of Akers House homerooms, thus officially openi the campaign. Each representative advertised the good qu ties of this plan in his homeroom, and a grand spirit v prevalent everywhere. The price of the dues during the fi week of collection was 1 5c. Those who did not pay were a loss, for the next week up they soared to 20c. Bagain hu ers had their chance to indulge their bit of whimsy. T worth of this plan was shown in the 100% that was gain almost immediately.

Lincoln is perpetuated by the coin medals presented at our graduation and by the coin Grammar School. n the capacity of housemaster, Mr. Benjamin D. Roman contributed much in the way of valuable and timely dance to the students under his supervision. Miss rion W. Parker cooperates with Mr. Roman in acting as Mr. Roman faculty adviser to the House Council. This council, headed by William Breeyear as house president, with Joseph Craven, Wayne Ross, and Ruth Brady in the capacities of vice presi- dent, secretary, and treasurer, respectively, meets monthly to discuss the social and financial problems of the house. Also at these gatherings policies are determined and sugges- tions concerning house activities discussed. The homeroom representatives to this illustrious group include George Adams, Richard Hagberg, Joseph Craven, Jason Raymond, David Montague, Marian Johnson, and Joan Russell. The drive for the collection of the House dues was very success- ful this year, nearly reaching the 100% mark. Scholars and athletes have been nurtured by this progressive house.

ROOM 418 Room 418 has been the abode of some 30 rugged pilgrims during the last stretch of a tiresome journey toward the Mecca of student ambition. In our midst we have President Bill Breeyear and Treasurer Ruth Brady, who, along with George Adams, went to Council. Hockey and tennis claimed Hilda Anderson, Barbara Bridgham, and Betty Carolin, while Mary Byrne leisurely looked on. In ending let us say that we do not fear that Mr. Hammond will forget us, but we do hope he will forgive us. ROOM 419 Under the leadership of Mrs. Scanned, we approach the end of our journey, a sturdy band, as witnessed by our ability to withstand the regimes of the (now famous) longer route. Here come the two Murivian reps, Patsy Eagan and Joe Craven, both always collecting money. After waking up the gang we find Jimmy Greene, class treasurer, and Joe Craven, vice president of Lincoln House. Finnegan, Greene, and Hagberg represent the marshal force (anyway they each wear a band). We’ll close, reminding you that Duffy keeps the room at moderate temperature with his hot air!

Joe Roalsen has been one of the few members to put us in the highlight and to the notice of the test of the school, through his brilliant dashes on the track. Then next in our line of celebrities comes Sumner Trombley as Bank teller, and Jacquelyn Speyers as a member of the Radio Committee. In closing we might add that there are numerous Post Grad- uates (P. G.’s to you) occupying numerous seats in the home- room. All are so demanding that we require the continual presence of Miss Cooke, who used to be an attendance super- visor. LINCOLN HOUSE SUMMARY Because we liked good old Brookline High School so muc that we chose to remain another year and gain by its mar advantages, is no reason why we should be tucked out o sight at the very top of the building (four flights up) . Neve theless, though we are not situated in a conspicuous place v keep up the school spirit that we have cherished within i for the last live or six years. 422 led the Lincoln Hou; homerooms in the number of bankers each week, 421 can- second, and 418, third. From the Murivian sales campai Room 420 emerged the victor. Room 418 seems to posse the most athletes; Room 421, the most smoothies”, as the call themselves; and Room 420 and 419, the most schot spirit.

S., but it has never before been a major afternoon sport. Although interest- ing to play, it has not the pep and vitality of some of the other games. As the name suggests, it is a cross between captain ball and basketball in that the forwards must remain in their circles and from there shoot for baskets. Miss Kelley was the instructor of this new and different sport and it is hoped to be continued in future years. BADMINTON : watch the birdies whiz over the net!

Not only in the spring but also during the autumn months, girls could be seen at McNeilly’s Riding Academy in Chestnut Hill jogging along at a pleasant clip with Miss Griffith or Miss Allen in the lead. To those new to the art of riding, instructors were provided to teach them a few fundamentals. The more advanced students enjoyed long rides on delightful afternoons galloping along the riding paths of the town.

However, she is not alone in her talent sport, for Shirley Simpson excels in the jacknife and backward di the 50-yard free style Barbara McKenzie and Murial Burns are their way to the notice of others.

I.’s, the basketball groups were necessarily smaller, thus providing more fun and instruction. Akers House again captured top honors in the inter-house tournament. Under the able tutelage of Miss Allen, Amy Cohen, Jean Scheinfeldt, Shirley Simpson, and Frances Anderson developed into excellent players. With Miss Griffith to guide them, the high P. F. I.’s journeyed to Newton to participate in a play-day. The newest of new ideas was presented and put into effect this year y the Physical Education Department. Boys were admitted to the ancing class, which previously has contained only members of the lirer sex. An opportunity to have a sound foundation in ballroom ancing by learning the fundamentals, was given to the boys and girls. i the middle of February a Valentine’s party was held and all considered a fitting conclusion to a most pleasant season, thanks to Miss Tierney.

A r ' e h c r 1 y ' Within arm ' s length ARCHERY In imitation of those merry men who inhabited Sherwood Forest s : many years ago are the girl archers of B.H.S. Targets were hit and score! piled up to the tune of twanging bowstrings. Bulls-eyes were the goa i! of these bowmen and many managed to reach this end. Rainy days di ' not prevent the girls’ enjoyment, for this sport can be played indoors o out with equal pleasure. Miss Kelley and Miss Griffith supervised, an the eight who had scored the most points throughout the season wer chosen for the team. GIRLS’ TENNIS Claiming girls in all stages of the game, beginners, intermediates, and advanced, the sport of tennis got under way in the Fall. To elimin- ate girls not qualified for the varsity team, a ladder tournament was held. Bebe Milton climbed steadily to the top to come out victorious. Winter saw the future tennis team practising its strokes against the wall in the gymnasium. When pleasant weather finally arrived, Miss Sherman rounded out a well trained group of girls. Ruth Brady, as captain, and Gertrude Thannhauser, as manager, brought the tennis season to a suc- cessful close. Deuce ROW 1: Williams, Brady, Schwamb, Milton.

GYM TEAM Good take-offs, straight bodies, and clean-cut landings — all constitute perfect form in the art of apparatus work. The gym team girls directed i their aims towards that goal, a perfection in the symmetry, harmony, and (proportion of the fundamental principles. The tournament for individual rating was a closely contested battle with Frances Pignato coming out on ! top for the upper houses and Amy Cohen for the lower houses. Miss Kelley, Miss Griffith, and Miss Allen gave the girls not only work but jalso play in the form of games, races, tricks, and other such interesting diversions. Fore! Yes, you had better watch out, for the girls have a powerful stroke after finishing their five or ten-week course at Brookline Municipal Golf course. Driving, pitching, putting, and looking for lost balls were all in the day’s work as Mr. John Keefe tried to round out good golfers from his many pupils. After the forms of different strokes were explained and demonstrated, they were practiced until the club was swung with per- fect timing and control. The finishing touches to these instructions and added experience came from actual playing around the course.

FOOTBALL During the past year freshman sports have been, on the whole, rather successful. The first of these, football, had a full schedule of games with other schools. They did not enter the win column, but proved their value by promising some good players for the varsity next year. With Mr. Ralph W. Totman, as coach, the boys played a very high grade of football. Starring for the team were Carreiro, Conlon, McSary, and Argus. More than any previous year, the turnout for this sport was very gratifying, and the possible future stars of Brookline High have shown great ability as well as good spirit. TRACK Probably the most popular of the freshman athletics is track. These freshman tracksters under Mr. Weygant with the varsity squad, com- peted with them, and participated in the same events. Furthermore this frosh squad competed in intra-school matches against the upper houses and also in several inter-scholastic meets. Concurrent with that of the varsity, a septathalon was staged for the freshman runners. The winner was Fred Carreiro in the dash, the hurdles, broad jump, and high jump. Bob Coffin and Don Bassist were the leading distance runners. The squad defeated Dedham, Arlington, and Milton. With such a start, the Brookline future track teams have high hopes.

Sports BASEBALL Because of the successfulness of the freshman baseball team this year, we have reason to believe that the future team of Brookline High School will be a constant winner. New stars were uncovered which will be valuable for the following year’s varsity and junior varsity squad. Mr. Bemis produced a very well balanced team with a wealth of material. Not only because of the team’s ability, but also because of their unfalter- ing spirit the season turned out entirely satisfactory. Some of the players to be watched in the coming years are Cauper, Connelly, Mahoney and Dolan. These players will probably furnish the bulk of the material for the varsity squads. Dolan, the star hurler, has already pitched a one-hit game. Around him and the other boys, Coach Bemis built his team, and the baseballers started the fight. They were out for new honors, and with support they went to the top. In addition to their outside schedule of eight games, the freshman boys are organized into a league consisting of five teams with approxi- mately fifty-five boys. These teams are picked in such a manner to give equality, and to play a schedule amongst themselves. This enables every boy to participate whether he makes the first squad or not. 69 ROW 1 : Mr. Downes, Duggan, Ringer, Carroll, Melville, Gulley, Montgomery, Nixon, Montague , Ross, Chmielul ski, Gallagher, Kirrane, Hibbard, Mr. Prior.

Varsity Football Under the leadership of the new coaches, Mr. Harry Downes, former All-Americar and Mr. Jack Prior, ex-Harvard end, the green squad was quickly molded into a urn for the opening fray at Winthrop but the game resulted in a 13 to 0 loss. Quincy de- feated Brookline, 13 to 0, in the first home game of the year. The following wee Brookline travelled to Fairhaven and were overwhelmed 25 to 6. Paul Perkins chalke up Brookline ' s first touchdown of the season. The poor play evident at Fairhaven con., tinued when we were beaten by Rindge Tech, 32 to 0. At this point the local hope were low but received a minor shock when our boys led Cambridge Latin 7 to 0, onl to lose 13 to 7 because of hard luck. In this game we made nine first downs to th ■ Cantabs’ one; yet we still were searching for that elusive thing known as victory. Oi a cold and cloudy afternoon that was brightened by the invading red legions of Fitch burg ' s band and football uniforms we piled up a 12 to 0 lead, only to be content with, final 12 to 12 deadlock. For the first time in over two years our supporters did no witness a loss. Punchard High of Andover beat us 6 to 0 in a lifeless game slowei down by the oppressive humidity. Armistice Day, November 11, victory was finalhj achieved over New Bedford Vocational, 13 to 7. With a victory, feeling present, th. team descended upon Newton for the traditional Thanksgiving struggle. As the thirc quarter ended, Newton led 20 to 0. However, the Wealthy Towners sprang to lift, with Gundy Kirrane scoring and Capt. Ed Nixon converting. A few minutes latei Johnnie Gallegher scored our second touchdown with Nixon again converting; then the gun sounded and we had again lost to Newton by the score of 20 to 14. 70 ROW 1 Rubin, Rosenthal, McKinney, Chmielinski, Blue, Hibbard, Gulley, Mr. Downes, Carroll, Ross, MacEvoy, Von Syckles, Argus, Lamkin.

Touchdown Club In the Brookline High football squad, a revitalization of spirit manifested itself Tnder the first year of the Downes regime. This resulted in the organization of the Touchdown Club. While the enemy sleeps, prepare yourself seems to be the appro- priate term for what Coach Downes is attempting to accomplish. As its purposes the ' ouchdown Club outlined the following: 1. To uphold B. H. S. traditions on the athletic field, in the class-room and in school activities; 2. To promote social enjoyment and physical benefit for its members; 3. To promote the advancement and to better the understanding of football at B. H. S.; 4. To promote a keen and spirited desire to represent B. H. S. honorably on the ' athletic field. Membership in the club is made up from three g roups: members of Freshmen, funior Varsity, Varsity football squads, managers of these teams, or alumni members of these teams following the 1938 season. The officers that were elected for the first year ire: Leo Gulley, president; Bob Carroll, vice president; Wayne Ross, secretary; Ed Mixon, assistant secretary and George Hibbard, treasurer. The class of 1939 will remember their senior year as one that began the revitaliza- tion of football in Brookline High School. 1 Stoia, Nixon. ROW 3: Sacks, Ward, Finnegan, De%lin, Kelley, Mr. MacDonald. Under the leadership of Gilbert MacDonald, serving his first year as head basketball coach, the Red and Blue quintet began practice sessions as early as the first week in December. In assuming the reins of Brookline ' s basketball team, Coach MacDonald had to start from scratch. Gone were the Fitz- patricks and Mooneys to other fields of endeavor, and, behind them remained a group of young, green, and inexperienced basketball players. First, Coach MacDonald had to speedily whip a team together for the opening game and also had to teach his players his system of basket- ball. All this is difficult to accom- plish in one year and, as a result, the team’s record was very poor. In fact, the team failed to win a single Su- burban League encounter although threatening to do so in several games.

The generous amount c undergraduate talent is a hopeful omen for the team chances in another year. Henry Crowley was captain of thi year’s team and was a feature playe throughout the season.

Hockey, the great Canadian game,” proved to be the nost successful sport at Brookline High during the past year. As members for the third year of the Eastern Massachusetts dockey League, the Brookline squad established the best ecord since hockey had its rebirth three years ago. As its eader the team had Hal Kushner, whose sterling play, both n the forward line and at defense, was a highlight of the season. With the end of the pigskin season, practice began in earnest with pre-sunrise” sessions at he Arena and afternoon workouts it the Boylston reservoir. On Decem- aer 3, the Red and Blue entered their first fray with Somerville and won 5 to 3, with Jack Gallagher and Gundy Kirraine the offensive aces. Following this initial contest our team ” was hailed as potential cham- pions but little” Dedham beat us 2 to 1 . Hudson was tied 1 to 1 in a heartbreaker that we were unfortunate in not winning. Malden was overwhelmed 9 to 5 in a game that set a new league scoring record. Capt. Hal Kushner, Gundy Kirraine, Jack Gallagher, and Leo Gulley were out- standing. Brookline moved into second place by defeating Natick 3 to 1 and Lexington 4 to 2 in New Year’s week- end games. In the final game of the year, Brockton won and Brookline’s pennant hopes died. Throughout the season Chet Lipsett and George Hibbard tended to the goal in fine fashion, and the work of Ed Grant, Bob Car- roll, Joe Johnson, Herb Green, and George Powers was well above aver- age. Leo Gulley, Hal Kushner, Bill Breeyear, Gundy Kirraine, and Jack Gallagher were selected to represent Brookline on the All-Star sextet.

Although lacking the great performance of past years, this year’s edition of the Brookline High School mermen turned in a creditable record despite a lack of material. Dick Chmielinski was the team’s captain. The first two meets against Watertown High and Dean Academy were victories for the Red and Rlue natators by the identical scores of 52 to 5. Dick Chmielinski and A1 McNeilly were the stars of these overwhelming victories. In a close meet Brookline lost to the M.I.T. freshmen by a score of 36 to 30. The failure of certain reliable performers to come through cost the Wealthy Town- ers this meet. Brockton defeated us at the Shoe City, 44 to 22, with Captain Chmiel- inski the only Brookline swimmer to cap- ture first place. At Worcester. Worcester Academy defeated the Red and Blue by the topsided score of 56 to 10. This con- stituted the team’s worst defeat. On the whole the season was below average with no out- standing star present. Johnny Coutts again coached the tean as he has done for many years. The principal participant and their specialties were: Dick Chmielinski, 50-yard fre style; A1 McNeilly, 100-yard free style; George Harris, back stroke; Tommy Hunter, breast stroke; Walter Rankin, rela; and 50-yard free style; Dick McKen zie, 200-yard free style Bob Moore, backstroke; Robert Schiller, 100 -yard fret style and dive; Paul Driscoll, dive; Bob Moore, 200-yarc free style; and Billie Herwitz, 50 yard fret style. A1 McNeilly, Bob Moore, and Paul Driscoll became capable varsity stars at the season’s close.

This early start was made possible by the indoor facilities provided in the new wing to the High School. In the first week of March, the battery candidates reported and began intensive indoor workouts. During this time, Coach Fitzgerald, faced with the loss of many stars of last season, attempted to develop capable replacements. Phil McGovern and A1 McNeilly were the returning pitchers from last year’s team. Duke Mason and Owen Carle of last year ' s Junior Varsity team were the only other experienced pitchers. Ed. Riley was the catcher for the second consecu- tive year. Bob Jacobs, George Hib- bard, and Jake Indursky were also receivers. Ed.

Enthusiasm reached a new high in 1939 with over one hundred-thirty members. The English Club provides its members with high quality entertainment once monthly. In the fall, a trip was con- ducted to the famous Wayside Inn. In November, Mr. Grif- feth Couser, former Aleppo teacher, fascinated his audience with a talk on the life and wonders of the Near East. For its Christmas festivities the club proudly featured original work by the pupils. January brought a lecture by Dr. Alfred Lane, professor emeritus of Tufts. At the April meeting, held jointly with the Library Staff, Mrs. Bertram K. Little gave an illustrated talk on historic Brookline. The year’s finale came at Concord and Lexington, thus ending a season of highly creditable activity. SAGAMORE Much noise, a few workers, freshmen wandering about, and lights on until 6 P.

Meetings are held once monthly under the charge of the officers, elected by students in the French Classes from among a group of nominees proposed by the teachers. For this year Lea Wolff held the office of president; Phyllis Rosen, vice president; Naomi Sharenson, secretary; Elizabeth Peabody, chairman of the Refreshment Committee; and Ruth Langer, chairman of the Program Committee. Dues were collected by treasurer David Solomon and his assistant Beverly London. A new system was initiated this year with regard to the meetings; each class, beginning with the freshman and concluded with the seniors, furnished the entertainment for one afternoon. The programs consisted for the most part of short skits put on by the members and singing of French songs, plus, of cours.e the inevitable refreshments. One highly successful innovation was a game day, at which the group participated in French games and sang the musical score from Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs” with French lyrics. Efforts were made to secure either a speaker or a French motion picture for the final meeting. Only French is spoken at these gatherings, a ruling enforced through the desire of the members rather than by the supervisors. On April 13 the French Club witnessed the outstanding skit of the season. The production, a comedy in one act entitled Son Premier Bal, was enthusiastically received by the audience. The characters were ably portrayed by Lea Wolff, Ellen Moran, Gertrude Thannhauser and Jacqueline Artieres. French Club ROW 1: S. Applebaum, Winer, E.

THE GERMAN CLUB Sprechen Sie Deutsch?” The German Club will certainly aid you if you don ' t, for to have German spoken well by its members is one of the aims of this organization. Claire Caverly, president; Maxwell Harvey, vice president- secretary; Herbert Ellis, treasurer; and Robert Koller, chairman of entertainment, have worked well with Mr. Friedland in making this year a gala one in German Club history. The new building, housing the German Club head- quarters, has truly inspired the club to varied and new activities. Featuring every meeting is constant individual participation. A person entering Mr. Friedland’s room dur- ing a meeting needs no sign or indication othe r than his own ears that he is listening to and seeing Die Deutsche Gesell- schaft” in action. The only other possibility as to the visitor ' s whereabouts is that he is in Germany itself! SPANISH CLUB The Spanish department has as its extra-curricular branc El Circulo Espagnol. The ever-increasing membership h been officered by Dorothy Maginnis, president; Janet Ra vice president; Marion Mikels, secretary; and Leona Geller, treasurer. Faculty adviser is Miss Lenore Placid: A mark of B or better is required of Juniors and Seniors f entrance into El Circulo. The Junto Directoria, consisting of the officers, the soci and the program committees, had unusual success in pla ning both the picnic at Cedar Hill, Waltham, and the Chri man reunion”, at which Miss Lula Adams was the speak and guest of honor. They have assured themselves of great success for tl year 1939 by arousing interest in Spain and in giving students an opportunity to speak this Romance tongue.

R e d C r o s s RED CROSS When B.H.S. students see red and white pins adorning the lapels of others or see Mr. Friedland dashing around waving stickers and membership cards in the breeze, they should know it’s time to dig down for their nickels and dimes to donate to the Red Cross. This year Mr. Friedland was aided by Janet Gale as president, William Herwitz as vice president, Richard Johnson as secretary and James Mur- phy as treasurer. Cooperation by the Art Department and the Domestic Science Department has helped considerably, and various funds for students and citizens have been established.

PRIZE SPEAKING Highlight of the Brookline year for the lovers of drar and oratory is the annual John Murray Kay Prize Speaki contest, in which the school’s leading exponents of the voc. arts vie against one another for top honors in this fie! Tryouts are open to the entire school and the finest pc j formers are selected to compete in the final. 1939 saw an exhibition equaling, if not surpassing, thi standards and quality of entertainment of other year Moreover, it saw several from the usual type of selection ' After careful deliberation on the relative merits of fi contestants, the judges awarded highest honors to Pa: Lauriat and Phyllis Scheffreen with honorable mention tjj Helen Weiselberg, Ruth Cohen, Earl Hoffman, and Norma) Stearns. DRAMATIC SOCIETY Playing a large part in the life of Brookline High is tt theater and its enthusiastic producers, the Dramatic Societ Twice yearly these future Barrymores aided by an efficiei ' student stage crew, present an evening of enjoyment. In November, the Society stood forth in three oneV plays. Hands Across the Sea by Noel Coward; Trifles 1! Susan Glaspell, and The Warrior’s Husband by Julia ' Thompson. Ruth Cohen scored a hit as Coward’s effe ' vescent Piggie, ably supported by Robert Lundblad. Pa, Lauriat, and William Herwitz. The stark tragedy of Trip was well handled by Ann Chamberlain and Claire Caver in the leading roles, while The Warrior’s Husband reveale an uproarious comedian in Nat Rowell, aided and abette by Margaret Ragan and Judy Shocket. Because the Scholarship Committee voted not to sponsc a play this year, the Society went ahead and carried throu£ a major presentation in February. Under the guidance c Mr. Wendell Smith, a new business staff was organize headed by Nat Cohen, Norman Stearns, and Harry Levii Disraeli by Louis N. Parker was the play selec ted, and wit its huge cast and glittering array of costumes proved th greatest success of recent years. Dramatic Society � 4 ROW 1: Polov, Leventhal. Shock Weiner. Schwartz.

Robert n as the sinister Eoljambe, Judy Shocket as his partner in nyue, Jason Marks as the thundering Probert, and David .del as the patriotic Meyers, all gave noteworthy per- mances. Robert Lundblad and Elaine Penn carried the e interest. Outstanding in minor roles were William •rwitz and Betsy Parker. Officers of the Dramatic Society for 1938-39 were Robert ndblad, president; Page Lauriat, secretary; and Hiss Han- n, faculty adviser. The stage and electrical staff w ere der the supervision of William Cushing. DEBATING SOCIETY Exercise for the lungs and training for the mind are ovided by the Debating Society, which gives ambitious udents an opportunity for quick thinking and effective leaking on subjects of current interest. Under the leadership of their officers, Robert Ulin, presi- ent; Norman Stearns, secretary; and Miss Hannon, faculty iviser, these future Demostheneses engaged in a spirited tries of debates. Instead of the stereotyped standard college ebates, Brookline chose new, live subjects hitherto undis- assed, with resultant greater interest and enjoyment. Wil- Cj.am Herwitz, Norman Stearns, and Boris Haskell met and efeated the Girls’ Latin School on Resolved that swing lusic is detrimental to American culture.” The subject Resolved that reciprocal trade treaties are pnjurious to the United States” found William Herwitz and 5 ioris Haskell on the negative pitted against Arlington and c lobert Ulin, Norman Stearns, and Robert Goldma n uphold- ng the affirmative against Roxbury Latin School. Others ictive in this interscholastic competition were Stanley Goff ind Nat Cohen, who argued the same topic against Chelsea. In addition to their meetings with other schools the Debating Society holds monthly meetings. Stage and Executive Staff ROW 1: Greenwood, Wieselberg, Harty, Cushing, Caverly, McKenzie.

CAMERA CLUB Brookline High ' s camera club has certainly been active this year. Throughout 1939 the organization has been treated to talks on practically all the vital points of photography. Starting with developing and printing, more complex sub- jects have been absorbed by the ever-eager members. Subjects like lenses, filters, camera composition and color photography were included. Such guests as Mr. Wyreck of Alfred Brown studios and Mr. Garetyson have added much to the meetings. The Eastman Kodak Company also generously contributed by sending written lectures and movies. Other activities were a visit to Dr. Robbins’ X-ray labora- tories, a contest judged by Miss Parker, and a scavenger hunt for pictures illustrating the fourteen points of photography as listed in one of the Kodak Company’s lectures. Altogether the camera club has had a very full year, illustrating well the fact that B. H. S. as a whole and each of its organizations are progressing rapidly. It might be well at this time to warn any visitor to B. H. S. to beware the camera fiends of the school. As for the stu- dents, and teachers — they’re used to hearing that little click just at the most embarrassing moments and try not to get excited. The school has become camera-minded and the cause for this can be traced directly back to the unceasing activity of the camera club. STAMP CLUB Some people say, Join the navy and see the world.’’ B. E S. students differ. They assert, Join our stamp club and se the world.’’ Truly, no better way of getting an insight upo foreign countries is evident than through their stamp issues except traveling to them in person. Thus the stamp club another progressive B. H. S. organization, instills withii its members a deep interest in stamps and the places the come from. Upon the resignation of Page Lauriat, Justin Frankel as sumed the chair of this organization and, with faculty ad viser Mr. Smith, has guided it through the end of a pros perous year of trading, lectures, etc. Vice president L Halpert, secretary B. Fine and treasurer L. Lehrberger com prise the other leaders of the stamp club, each of whon has served well in his or her own capacity. Mr. Smith, who has served the organization for a numbe of years in his official capacity, is himself an ardent collecto and so has attempted to gather around him others who art interested in collecting or have large collections. In this ht has had considerable success for our stamp club has this yea: quite a large number of enthusiasts on its roll. Thus if you see any dreamy-eyed students walking the car ridor with large books (not the school’s) in their hands you ' ll know that it is Tuesday, the stamp club’s meeting day Camera Club ROW 1 : Sweet, Weeks, Helpern, Small, Gordon, DavidofF, Moore, Meyers, Striker.

CHESS CLUB |ii Move, will you!” I see your Ninzowitsch defense.” i ' ok out for the bishop.” Checkmate!” On hearing these Ids issuing from the lunchroom, any passerby is bewil- lied, but, to clear up the enigma, it is the chess club in l;ion. Every Friday the Capablancas of B. H. S. engage in ►Udder tournament and everyone has a chance to plav on piokline’s invincible chess team. lEhe officers of the club, president, William Herwitz; sec- ury, Jason Marks; treasurer, Justin Frankel, and Miss I en, faculty adviser, have worked hard to expand this up L ' l coming organization so that this year there were more tmbers than ever before. The year commenced with a fall t rnament to place the players in their respective niches. The chess team has engaged in more matches than in any 1‘vious year, winning four and losing three. They played hntington, Cambridge Latin, Boston Latin, Roxbury Me- nrial, and Worcester Tech. Two of the games lost were Cambridge Latin, the state champs, and the other in a close ktch to Boston Latin. Boris Haskell has the best player’s :ord, winning five of the seven matches he played in. ' An innovation and a great accomplishment for the organ- ■ tion was the awarding of points to the officers by Alpha Pi. THE SCIENCE CLUB The Science Club functions as a link between the students and the faculty of the Science Department, as well as pro- viding a means of self-expression for the members of the club who desire to pursue some special field in science or to experiment with some original idea. Established two years ago through the efforts of Mr. Hollingworth and several scientifically inclined students, the club has aimed at stimu- lating popular interest in science. This year, in addition to the usual lectures and laboratory demonstrations, the club has enjoyed trips to industrial plants and other places of scientific prominence. Two out- standing events of this year were a visit to a prominent dairy and a lecture by a well-known surgeon connected with Harvard Medical School and the Massachusetts General Hospital. The officers for this year have been: Allen Shoop, presi- dent; Helen Armarski, vice president; Jack Bernstein, treas- urer; Mary Mullen and Jean Miller, secretaries; and Mr. Cooper, Mr. Holland, and Mr. Beck as faculty advisers. The success of this year’s activities is due as much to the full co- operation of the entire faculty of the Science Department as to the efforts of the advisers and of the officers.

ORCHESTRA Despite the tendencies of some of its members to forget themselves in this age of swing, the Brookline High School Orchestra ranks with the best of school musical groups. EJnder the watchful eye of Mr. Joslin these future Pader- ewskis practice diligently each Tuesday afternoon to perfect their varied and difficult repertoire. The orchestra plays at most assembly periods, as well as on special occasions, such as radio broadcasts, Dramatics, and graduation exercises. The orchestra this year was deeply honored by having five of its members, chosen for an all-Eastern orchestra. Special credit is due Mr. Joslin for his untiring efforts. GLEE CLUB The Glee Club is an organization which promotes the appreciation and enjoyment of good music. These two aim; have been achieved during 1939 and every member of the Club has certainly gained something of value from it. Under the able direction of Mr. Burbank, the group, sep- arated into male and female, has swelled to a total of eighty- eight members. This year the groups have entered into a new activity be- sides singing for B. H. S.’s enjoyment. They have treated the whole U. S. to their art at several of the new radio broadcasts over short and long-wave hook-ups. Glee Club ROW 1: Johnson, Ferguson, Coredeschi, Dundas, Fleischer, Vigoda, E.

ORPHEUS ENSEMBLE Ince 1935 the Orpheus Ensemble, comprised of picked sicians from the band and orchestra, has delighted B.H.S. I its playing. It has truly helped the students to appreci- good classical music, and has stimulated its members rrther their musical pleasure and knowledge. ?sides school assemblies, the group has entertained at ral outside functions, including the Teachers’ Club and iBrookline Music School. As an innovation it has played -he new B.H.S. radio program from WHDH and p£AL. No extra-curricular activity of the school brings e individual development or insures more lasting happi- to its membership than does the Orpheus Ensemble. BAND Strike up the band ! But the white-sweatered drum-thump- ers and bugle-blasters of Brookline High need no striking. At football games the band keeps spirits at high tide despite the ups and downs of battle on the held. Between halves, their intricate formations, all done while playing, entertain friend and foe alike. At assemblies, too, the band adds its thunderous voice; with a repertoire of martial music they establish themselves not alone as hearty pep-givers but also as finished musical artists. On class day, it’s the band that leads the way for the triumphant seniors through the cheer- ing rows of undergrads. No doubt about it! The band is here, there, and everywhere with a bang.

The efforts of all the librarians have gone into making the B.H.S. library as complete in its scope as it is beautiful, and it is truly a model of what a high school library should be like in appear- ance, organization, and content. Mrs. Seibens and Miss La- pointe certainly plan things out in a way fine for any reader. As a unit of the Brookline Public Library this organization serves the school in a most efficient manner. Besides directing our library, the library staff has also a home life” made up of monthly meetings. The officers, president, Margaret Adams, vice president, Brian Robson, treasurer, Jean Mcllveen, secretary, Helen Arzamaski, and Roberts House representative Dalton Cookingham, at this time come to the fore and take charge. Well-planned inter- esting meetings result from a merger of these five brains with the minds of Mrs. Siebens and Miss LaPointe. In October came a Hallowe ' en Party, at which it can b truly said, A good time was had by all.” In November, nation-wide book week was scheduled and the B.H.S. Librar celebrated it by buying new books and by an entertainin program. A special edition of the Sagamore was put out 2 this time containing a large library supplement. Mrs. Alic Monsur Packard, a professional reader, was the feature 0 this program in Roberts Auditorium. In December, a mo 5 enjoyable Christmas Party was held, at which Miss Parke of B.H.S. ' s Art Department, Mrs. McNiff, former librariar and Mr. Flemings, English teacher of note, were honorei guests. In February, Miss Hale treated the staff to a tal of her travels through Ireland, exhibiting her own painting of Irish landscapes done in water colors! In March, a join meeting with the English Club was on the calendar, and ii April, a literary meeting, bringing a finale to a full year 0 activity. ROW 1: Abramson, London, Levee, Clayton, I.

Mr. Holton RADIO ' he year 1939 saw the first step in a new and long-range Iject for B.H.S. With the advent to the school of Mr. nuel B. Gould, Brookline took an ambitious step in ini- ; ing radio broadcasting as an addition to the already !gthy list of extra-curricular activities. Twice weekly the balthy Towners took to the ether waves, with a staff of l)rs, announcers, script- writers, and technicians drawn en- i ' ly from the student body. The purpose of this group 5 twofold: to develop appreciation of good radio work ough a better understanding of what went on behind the nes, and to build up mutual understanding between ools here and abroad. during the year, Brookline presented forty programs in ) series of twenty each. The Tuesday broadcasts over station WHDH gave students a chance to take part in plays, musicales, and lectures as given from an actual station, and these met with plaudits from far and near. The Thursdays were devoted to the portrayal of An American Secondary School System over short-wave station WlXAL, relayed to all parts of the world. School administration, student re- sponsibilities, techniques of teaching, extra-curricular activ- ities, physical education, guidance, cultural activities, — all in ali, a typical American high school, were clearly outlined for the edification of foreign listeners. In their first year on the air, these offerings met with en- thusiastic response. Letters poured in from all parts of the country. Correspondence, stamp, and photography ex- changes were started. Some missives even came from as far off as Germany and England, expressing, for the most part, admiration of our splendid system.

GIRLS’ LEAGUE The truly discerning onlooker will perceive that one out of every three girls in Brookline High School has that certain air that goes with membership in that exalted organization, the Girls’ League. During 1939, Miss Sawyer, aided by president Elinor Applebaum, vice president Louise Ginsburg, secretary Eliza- beth Peabody, and treasurer Priscilla Nagle, has succeeded in refurnishing the Girls’ League Room and inaugurating Fri- day afternoon socials while continuing old services of the league. Of these the most important follow: Thanksgiving was made cheerful for many an unfortunate family in town by canned goods and other goods donated, and at Christmas the league went to work repairing and making dolls and toys and filling many stockings with candy for poor children. By these activities and many more it is evident that the Girls’ League exerts great influence over almost every girl in school and even over many Brookline graduates. GIRL SCOUTS The troop consists of 32 members and three leaders. Tl. year, because of the new program, we divided into four i i terest groups. The home-makers under Miss Poland cook, a farewell supper in honor of Miss Robertson who had be. I a lieutenant. The nature group, working with Miss Brut | have planted and tended a garden, and each girl has do. something to make her own home surroundings more i tractive. Miss Nichols led the world-knowledge groi which, working for better knowledge and understanding i other countries in the interests of world peace, have be exchanging letters with Girl Scouts throughout the worl In December the home-making and craft groups combine to launch a Mariner Ship, The Westward Ho!” with Mi Poland as Skipper and Mrs. Allen first mate. In May, the last Golden Eaglets ever to be given in Broo line were awarded to Elizabeth Barry, Nancy Campbell, ar Elizabeth Parker of Akers House, and Eloise Linscott ( Packard House — all members of our troop.

BANK If you want to awake with a start at the end of one of i Dur years at high school, just get into the habit of saving a uarter or so every other Tuesday in our B. H. S. B°n ' :. mu’11 find you’ve got a considerable sum of hard cash at : our immediate disposal. Thrift’’ is the lesson this energetic ssociation teaches us and it is by no means one to be ounned. ■ The Brookline High School Bank is under the direction of dr. Roland Blanchard aided in 1939, by two chief assistants, Uan Rosenberg and Grace Lupton. The rest of the organ- zation consists of five house supervisors, numerous messen- gers, statisticians, and homeroom tellers, the whole being an I ' xtra-curricular activity of the Social Studies Department. This year the organization has had about one quarter of he students banking, ever striving for bigger totals. An nnovation for 1939 and a step toward real progress was the :olorful graphs picturing banking development in each room ’substituted for the old announcement cards. BOYS’ CLUB After years of watching the fairer sex unduly dominate school life through the Girls’ League, the boys of the two lower Houses finally banded together this year and under the leadership of Mr. Flemings formed the first Brookline High Boys’ Club. Membership in March stood at 104. Among those honored as the club’s original officers were Edwin Frank, president; Jack Dreyfus, vice president; Robert Langer, secretary; an d Toby Berman, treasurer. Listed in the manifold activities are dancing, bowling, riffry, outings, dramatics, baseball, ping-pong, discussion groups, skating, skiing, and tennis. During the year, three large meetings were held. At the first, addresses were made by Mr. Eton, head of the Roxbury Boys’ Club and Mr. Witherall, head of the Boston Y.M.C.U. At the second, the new constitution was read and the officers were elected. The third gathering w r as chiefly for enter- tainment.

Justly proud of its system of student government, Brookline has endeavored to forge a system which defies breakage. Central link in this worthy chain is the School Council, in which is centered the legislative or law-making power for the school. The School Council consists of the president of each of the five houses, the housemasters, and one member of each house of the opposite sex from the president. George Hibbard, a junior, served his second year as president of the Council in 1939. Keeping in touch with Mr. Ringer and with its co- ordinate bodies, the marshal force and the Court of Justice, the Council endeavors, through its edicts, to maintain in the best possible way the lofty standards and high morale of B. H. S. A notable example of its good work in 1939, invaluably aided by the vigorous work of the marshal force, was the cleaning up of the somewhat bothersome lunchroom situation. ALPHA PI Alpha Pi, the aim of every high school student, is t honorary society of B.H.S. Its members are the active symbc of our school in excellence of scholarship and of exti curricular activities. President Robert Ulin, the member having the greater number of earned points, and secretary-treasurer Richard ( Sisson, runner-up to Robert, were the officers for this yeq Miss Jane Perkins, faculty adviser in the absence of M Snow, has had the honor of having charge of the large’ group of members ever to enter the society — over sixty. I The students become acquainted with Alpha Pi chiefr through observances scheduled at two school assemblies It is truly an inspirational sight to see the lighted embleil and hear the stirring oath of allegiance, which it might Ip well to quote at this time as the very essence of Alpha P We pledge allegiance to Alpha Pi. We solemnly promiil to uphold the fine traditions of its past and hand down to oil successors its fair name untarnished.” ROW 1: Gale, Dane, Caverly, Greenbaum, Ulin, Sisson, Parker, Thannhauser, Lupton, Cohen, Phillips.

Court of Justice COURT OF JUSTICE [unerica’s contribution to the science of government is pj supremacy of the judiciary; and Brookline’s contribution tc tudent government is its Court of Justice. This important b ' ly has as its function the interpretation of the school laws afset forth by the Student Council and enforced by the Mrshals. The court consists of a Chief Justice, chosen in a school- §e election; the Captain of Marshals, who acts as prose- c ing attorney; the President of each house; and a marshal i m each house chosen by his fellows. A faculty adviser a ends the meetings, but has no vote. All defendants are £ en an opportunity to plead guilty or not guilty and to s. ak in their own defense. [ In making its decisions, the Court aims at finding the root C the trouble and in giving aid, thus provides the school vth a better citizen. MARSHAL FORCE The B.H.S. marshal is our answer to the question, Who keeps that howling pack in check?” Without a whistle, without a brass button, in fact, without much else but a red and blue arm band and a sense of honor the marshal sees that all’s right in B.H.S. Captain Len Geller and Assistant Captain Elinor Apple- baum, with the able aid of Mr. Bates, faculty supervisor, have worked out a new system this year organizing the force to the extreme. The bulk of the work is shifted to the floor captains, who seem to do very well in handling it. The marshals also act as ushers at many school affairs, such as dramatic presentations, proms, and Parents’ Night. The marshal force of about 80 members, the cream of B.H.S., is a vital cog in the high school’s machine of student government and has, by years of experience, proved itself a useful expedient in policing Brookline High.

About five minutes before the start of the period a few white-clad boys and girls start to set up the cookie booths and receptable tables. Several others stand talking in low tones behind the food counters and still others carry dishes full of attractive, wholesome food from Miss Gebauer and her staff’s stronghold to their proper places. Progress over last year is evident by the manner in which the initial preparations are carried out and the efficiency with which the great number of lunchroom staff members work. A bell rings! Suddenly, the peaceful room is transformed into a veritable madhouse! A mob of half-starved students assail the various counters and are barely held in check by the marshals and the expert staff. The teachers follow but soon disappear into their own private sanctorum. As the noise wells up to the ceiling, the lunchroom staff and Mr. Bates’ protege exhort the ravenous eaters to keep it down to a colleg yell ' ' and to take the paper bag away or else”. Soon afte the occupants have finished, they start to saunter towar the exits before another group arrives. One would think that the lunchroom attendants woul slowly go a little mad after three such experiences day afte day, but an interview with one of these cafeteria assistani proved that Mrs. Potter has everything so well planned th. nothing can go wrong. We leave the Cafe Brooklinian wit the definite impression that everyone is doing an exceller job in a graceful, pleasing manner. Brookline High Schoc has come through again with a progressive eating systerr Even in feeding the students food, our High School is top just as it is in feeding them knowledge.

Murivian Committee Confusion, candid shots in piles, Senior pictures in stacks, copy in miles, people in ceaseless activity, early evening, chaos — these characterize the superhuman struggle to get the Murivian out on time! Room 239 bristles with master- brains in the throes of creation from 1:30-5:30 every day in the week! Beneath the outward disorder there is method, however, and some madness as well. It all began last October with the Dummy. The Dummy is the loving brainchild of the Layout Com- mittee. The book before you is a tribute to their carefulness. Upon Dave Solomon, chairman, and Nat Cohen, chief assist- ant, fell the task of filling out their own careful plan, with the pictures and copy provided by the other committees; thus Dave became Murivian key man. Meanwhile the camera crews had started to work, with a Goldman-Johnson-Offen combine attending to the formal photography and the Tannhauser-Wolf snoop artists catch- ing the School in its ' off moments”. Likewise Mel Wolf and his associates ascertained the opinions of the Class re- garding the Who’s Who distinctions. ncer The subcommittee on copy straightway went into action gathering for write-ups by its scribes: Nagle, Sisson and LUin. Co-ordinator-in-chief, doer of odd jobs, and keeper of the peace was Page Lauriat, editor-in-chief. Sitting quietly at his desk throughout the affray peacefully proof reading copy was Mr. Williams, the unperturbed. ill:: ro- under Mr. Blanchard’s masterful supervision, Alan Rosenberg waged a good sales campaign, ably assisted by Les White and Don Hackel, and neatly filled our printing quota. L T nder a Hershberg-Murphy-Craven-Eagen coopera- tive the advertising staff sold ads to all and sundry and held up their section of the book, into which section (the - last) we hooe you will look and learn. The efficient cashiers ; with Gosdanian, Lind, Carle and Connelly in the depths of its multitudinous detail met the need heroically for handling your money and Murivian records. During all of this from Room 220 came the hot notes of rhythmic touch on the keyboards manned by a gracious, smiling, ever-cooperative crew, consisting of Hawes. LeClerc, MacLaughlin and their chairman, the provocative Cohen. h . Is Dave worried? The genial boss Never point M Senior Class Officers Applebaum, Cadiff, Lupton, Greene. RING AND PIN COMMITTEE The ring and pin committee has, this year as in all others, served the purpose of offering something material as a re- minder of their class and their days at Brookline High 1 School. ' I With Mr. Chester Seamans as faculty adviser, the com- I mittee consisting of George Adams, Harriet Agoos, Daniel 1 Cadilf, Janet Gale, Jeanne LeClerc, Stanley Levin, and Jane Miller chose Loren Murchison Company to supply the j jewelry because of their excellent display of pins, rings, bracelets and pendants. A new style ring called the Stream- :| line was an added attraction and a preference over last , year’s Dartmouth style. THE SENIOR PROM | This year’s Senior Prom featured the music of Stan Brown I and his Crimsonians, the year’s leading collegiate band. This crew won a contest among all the Eastern Colleges, which ! certainly shows why it proved so popular at our dance. Much discussion was held to determine a suitable place to hold this dance, but the students were made to realize the advantages of Driscoll Hall. The committee in charge was I Leonard Geller, chairman, Janice Knoring, Jake Murphy, Ed. Orde, Marilyn Millen, Ann Replogle, Dick Sisson, and 1 Bill Breeyear. Linder this stimulating group of leaders, the dance proved to be most successful and was counted the great event of the season. CLASS DAY COMMITTEE Plans for the annual Class Day were discussed and voted upon by a committee headed by Bob Lundblad and composed of Ruth Langer, Betty Carolan, Dorothy Maginnis, Margaret Connelly, Lea Wolff, Priscilla Nagle, Robert Ulin, David Solomon, Alan Rosenberg, Joe Craven, and Paul Hanel. Also in the hands of this committee was the designing of a suitable costume for the girls to wear on Class Day, and the selecting of an exciting, interesting, and different program for the banquet immediately following the exercises outdoors. Because of the fact that there were so many graduates, the Roberts Auditorium stage was not an appropriate place to hold the graduation exercises. The previous year the stu- dents were exceedingly hot and crowded, and all fire regula- tions concerning the stage were broken. At a meeting of the class, after various arguments pro and con, it was voted upon to have the pupils sit on the floor with the audience. This progressive step proved its worth by the fact that the group of students had plenty of room, were cool, and were able to listen to the speakers, whereas always before, the speeches were heard only by the parents.

Pessimists and cynics and those who give way too easily before the odds of the battle of life have said of us that we are the ' lost generation ”. It has been claimed that to today’s youth, tomorrow’s leaders, has been left a heritage of accumulated social, economic, and political distresses so heavy that he who attempts to shoulder the bur- den must surely falter and crumble beneath the load. Much as we may have confidence in ourselves, there is little sense in blindfolding our eyes to this or any other picture. It is a hard world which we shall be called upon to face, a world harassed by menacing cries of tyranny and hate, a world grown cruel and heartless through centuries of ex- perience with human guile, a world which, still bleeding from the wounds of the last great war, threatens to throw itself headlong into the chaos of another. But neither is there rhyme nor reason in quailing before what we see and assuming an attitude of despair and resigna- tion. The world is hard, but other generations have faced equally hard ones and strode ahead without wavering. If the youth of today must face weightier problems and a greater obligation to posterity, has it not a far mightier learn- ing and culture than any before it with which to shoulder them? The maze of society has grown more complex, but the guiding hand of education is tenfold stronger. The exigencies of life have multiplied, but so too have its re- wards. Some features of our system may be decadent, but the wondrous forces of science may at any moment burst the restricting bonds of the existing and the conventional and give us a new and golden era. In short, the route over which we must battle our way to the goal of success is an arduous one, but for those who possess the strength of heart to assault it fearlessly far from an impossible one. We in America, strengthened as we are e by our protecting armor of freedom against the deadly arrows - of political tyranny and religious intolerance, have, of all the youth in the world, the best chance of reaching that goal. Education has trained us to meet the obstacles in our path with a clear head, an open mind, a firm purpose, a resolute : and untiring determination and perseverance. It has given £ us a background of culture and understanding to carry us on our way. It has given us knowledge, the greatest power on earth, a power which we can never lose, though all else fail us. It has girded us for the test, but it is we who must make . the start and who must carry through to the finish. Let us then throw off the bonds of vacillation with which supposedly the defeatists would attempt to restrain us. The power is ours to make of this foreboding world the beautiful L and glorious thing we should like it to be. Let us put our shoulders to the burden and move it from our path and from that of those to come. Let us take up the torch of pro- gress with a firm grasp and plant it on the highest pinnacle ' yet unsealed. With all the strength that our years of tempering here 1 have given us let us dedicate ourselves to a life of accom- i plishment that will do honor to those who have trained us for it. 1 President’s Address Daniel Cadiff Classmates: Tonight we meet together for the last time as a class. Behind us lie our high-school days; ahead, the future, which we await with an eager expectancy. With the confidence and hope of our youth, and with the knowledge we have gained here, we should be well started toward the solution of the problems life holds for us. We are like a tree which has been planted and has grown and now is ready to bear its fruit. Lor the fostering of its growth and its nurturing we are indeed indebted to our par- ents and teachers. They have implanted within us the strength to stand before future tempests and they have culti- vated within us a desire to grow further. Tomorrow we are a part of the turmoil that is life. Its opportunities are proffered us at the expense of concentrated effort and industry. May our contributions to the develop- ment of our country and to the progress of the world, and may our success in the business of living meet with the ideals and expectations of all those who have set us on our way. Class Poem PROCESSION It was a day both dark and drear A band of weary folk did walk Disconsolate; they journeyed down A narrow and sequestered lane; Lamentingly, they looked behind. Then down the traveled road there came A group that laughed, and played, and spoke With eager words of praise and hope. They did not mind the wind nor rain But looked expectantly ahead. They march to win the best of Life Her legacy of hope and joy: Sustained with friendship and with faith, They hurry on with courage high To reap Her rich, resplendent prize. L.
