3 1712 01439 6389 FO REWO RD It is with combined feelings of pride and hope that we present the 1 942 MURIVI AN to the Faculty and Students of the Brookline High School, - especially to the members of the Class of 1942. We feel pride in having met the many new editorial problems precipitated by the first war-time publi- cation of the yearbook; and we hope that it will prove worthy, in the eyes of its readers, of the traditions of the MURIVIAN and of the High School. ONTENTS — IJ0ni O WILFRED H. RINGER HEADMASTER This is the first wartime publication of the Murivian. For all of us this entrance into World War II has brought many difficulties and changes. But to Mr. Ringer, as Headmaster of a school of over two thousand stu- dents, this conflict has brought special problems. Little did Mr. Ringer realize last September that his school would be turned into a minor federal agency. Sugar rationing, gasoline rationing, and War Savings Stamps sales have all seen the walls of Brookline High School. But even more important than these have been the preparations for possible emergencies such as air raids. Mr. Ringer has taken essential action in the foundation of necessary plans for defense and governmental cooperation. Just as we have looked to him for leadership in ten peaceful years, we also look to him for leadership in war years. 6 MARY W. SAWYER DEAN OF GIRLS To those who know Miss Sawyer, she represents one of our best friends among faculty and students. Although her official titles are Dean of Girls and Shailer Housemaster, she is always willing to help any and all, no matter what the difficult} ' . She is never too busy or tired to advise us and advise us wisely. When in later years, there comes a time when we are not sure what to do, we will regret that there is no Dean’s Office nearby to enter. If, however, we then think of Miss Sawyer’s past advice and take heed, we will help our- selves. For Miss Sawyer, in true American fashion, has taught us to be independent, to think and act wisely, to remain true and democratic. 7 DEDIC On behalf of the class of 1942 The Murivian Committee takes sincere pleasure In dedicating the 1942 Murivian to Mr. Albert Seamans Master of Roberts House for the past four years. He has done much more to promote our welfare than what would occur from the mere performance of perfunctory duties as a housemaster. He 3 TION has expended immeasurable energy to encourage student friend- liness, cooperation, and individual standards of a worthy nature. His every move has been to develop house unity, school under- standing, and sincerity of purpose. His success in the work of remedial reading and his attitude of unexcelled patience rather than unpleasant severity have been reasons behind this dedica- tion. For these things and many more we acknowledge our respect for him with this token. 9 12 13 14 DOROTHY ABEL Miss Abel is a comparatively recent addition to our faculty, but, neverthe- less, she already is associated with numerous extra-curricular activities concerning themselves with this type of study. Besides holding membership on several committees, she also tits the position of adviser to the Chemistry group of the Science Club. FRANCIS T. BALL Although an instructor, primarily, at the Lawrence and Heath schools, Mr. Ball is not an unfamiliar figure to Brookline High boys. As in previous years, he coaches Junior Varsity foot- ball. and now, as do manv other phy- sical education instructors, he teaches students about tourniquets, digital pressure, artificial respiration and the other treatments with which they should be familiar. GRACE M. ALLEN The teacher who personally supports so many of our school drives can re- member when she attended Brookline High School as a student. Now, a very busy instructor in English, she acts as adviser to the Chess Club and the Roberts House Council, and Chairman of the Committee awarding the Wil- liam H. Lincoln medal for excellence in English. DONIVAN A. BARNES Undoubtedly determined to turn out at least one Tilden or Budge, Mr. Barnes passes countless afternoons at Dean Road Playground coaching the boy ' s tennis teams. Listed in school records as a member of the English Department he is chairman of the La- boratory English Group, which renders valuable service. NORMA ALLEN As soon as Fall sets in, wiry little M iss Allen may be seen wielding a hockey stick along with a group of Brookline girls at the Dean Road Playground. This Physical Education teacher is known, personally, by most of the female members of our student body, who have come in contact with her in gym and First Aid classes, or, more intimately, at afternoon sports. WARREN L. BARTLETT Mr. Bartlett ' s work in Brookline has touched all branc hes of school life. Starting with the adult population, he is the efficient principal of the Evening School. Among us, besides being a popular teacher in the Science Depart- ment, he serves on the Administration Council. The Grammar Schools feel his influence as a member of their Sci- ence Committee. MADELINE I. ANDERSON Objects of much envy are all pupils who have studied IV Algebra under Miss Anderson ' s thorough supervision. When she is not explaining about the unknown quantities X and Y, her time is spent performing tasks for the Course of Study in Mathematics, the Dismissals and Auditorium Commit- tees, and the School Council. HAROLD N. BATES Taking four lunch periods daily, as Mr. Bates does, may seem an enviable practice to some students. However, those “in the know” realize that, as head of the Marshal Force, coach of the track team, and chairman of the Safety Committee, this teacher of mathematics has few moments he can call his own. MARIAN BATES Introducing the feminine member of our Mathematics Department ' s brother and sister team. One of the most congenial instructors in this school, so say her pupils, she teaches algebra and geometry and is associated with the Testing Committee. activities. KELSEY C. ATTICKS As head of the Commercial Depart- ment, Mr. Atticks helps guide the edu- cation of that large proportion of stu- dents that take subjects in his depart- ment. A teacher of business law and penmanship adviser, he gives to many the advantage of his experience. He also plays a very important part in the extra-curricular affairs of the school since he is faculty treasurer of B.H.S. 16 PAUL H. BEAUCHEMIN A new face in the faculty of Brook- line High this year is -Mr. Beauchemin. Yet, we are not privileged to see too much of him since he keeps him- self very busy as instructor in the Au- tomobile shop. However, we may be sure that he is doing a good job at the Manual Training Building since he had fourteen years’ practical experi- ence in this field. ROSE D. BLISS Having taught a variety of subjects in every grade of both grammar and high school, and having traveled ex- tensively, Miss Bliss is well equipped to offer pupils a full, rich course in United States History. After hours, she not only helps students perfect maps and such, but also counsels mem- bers of the Packard House Election Committee. V. RUSSELL BECK A day in the life of Mr. Beck is in- deed a varied and interesting affair. The ten minute home-room period is filled with clever comment and quick repartee. This, however, is followed by five serious periods when Mr. Beck instills his diversified information on all subjects to the freshmen taking General Science and sophomores tak- ing Biology. MINOT A. BRI OGHAM All roads in the Manual Training building lead to Mr. Bridgham’s office, for he controls the Industrial Arts De- partment, one which is rapidly gaining in importance in this day when the demand for skilled mechanics is so great. Overseeing the work of all those employed in this group, he personally specializes in woodworking. CHARLES A. BEMIS Known to everyone throughout the school is Mr. Bemis who heads the staff of boys’ gym instructors. Al- though he performs all the duties of this position, and also those connected with the vital new First-Aid Course for boys, he still manages to supervise sports all year round. In the fall is playground activity; winter, freshman and intra-mural basketball ; spring, freshman baseball. HARRY E. BROWN Mr. Brown holds an envied position according to the students of Brookline High. This year he was able finally to turn the tables on the teachers, for he taught the male members of our fa- culty First Aid. He teaches this same subject to boys’ classes and also in- structs boys in physical education. JANE BERRIMAN Teaching law, economics, typewrit- ing, and bookkeeping, as does Miss Berriman, would seem to be a full- time job for any person. However, she not only does all this, but also serves on the Scholarship, Loan P’und, and Defense Committees. During the sum- mer and during some afternoons of the school year, she is an instructor at Boston University. KATHERINE L. BRUCE Having a finger in almost all the Brookline High Girl Scouts’ pies, Miss Bruce has shared the duties of a fa- culty adviser to this organization for the past few years. Since she is a teacher of scientific subjects, logically enough, she also lends her support to the Biology Group, one of the major subdivisions of the Science Club. ROLAND BLANCHARD The smile which evokes a hearty “Hi, Air. Blanchard” from so many lips belongs to a member of the Social Studies Department who teaches Eco- nomic Education. His even more im- portant extra-curricular functions see him as head of the school banking and defense saving stamps activities and as adviser to the business staff of the Murivian. WILLIAM B. BURBANK While we of the High School only think of him as the capable and inspir- ing director of the Orpheus Ensemble, the Glee Club, and of the Girls’ Vocal Ensemble, the School Department re- gister lists him as Director of Music for all Brookline Schools. As if these did not give him enough to do, his in- terest in music has made him a mem- ber of outside musical organizations too numerous to mention. 17 URSALA O ' HARE BURKE During the unfortunate absence of Miss Hannon. Mrs. Burke is admira- bly taking over her duties and con- tinuing her work in the cause of good speech. Besides being the school ' s in- structor in speech, she is adviser and coach of the Dramatic Society and was largely responsible for its success this year. She is also adviser of the De- bating Society and a member of the Auditorium Committee. CAROLINE V. COOKE Latin vocabulary, declensions, and conjugations hold few terrors for pu- pils in Miss Cooke ' s classes, for she drills them well in the rudiments of that subject. Longa recognized teach- er of Brookline High, she spends many afternoons giving extra help to stu- dents or attending meetings of the Ed- ucation Week and Teachers’ Fund Committees. ANNIE G. BURNHAM No one need fear that the fine art of needlework is dying, when there are such women as Miss Burnham, well versed in this skill, to instruct our girls. In affiliation with her duties in the Social Arts Department, she also has charge of the sewing which is be- ing done by our school for the Red Cross. EDWARD B. COOPER Although the Dupont Company de- prived the Science Department of Mr. Cooper’s service after the first semes- ter, nevertheless, his influence is still felt here. Students remember him fondly as chairman of the Safety Com- mittee, and as adviser to the Roberts House Council and the Science Club. NELLIE M. CAMPBELL Her pleasing personality and deep interest in Chemistry make Miss Campbell one of the best liked teach- ers of the Science Department. Always in school affairs, she is a member of the General Chemistry Revision Com- mittee, the Science Book Committee, and the Student Council. For the past four years, she has also been a reader in College Board Chemistry. ADA B. DEAL Miss Deal manifests her interest in the English language, the subject she teaches, as secretary of the English Department, chairman of the Reme- dial Reading division, and as a mem- ber of the Reading Committee. Al- though she was lost to it for part of this year due to illness, her homeroom and classes and all who know her wel- come her back. GENEVA F. CHAMBERLAIN Miss Chamberlain is the chairman of the new course that the Modern Language Department has organized for the benefit of those students who desire to become acquainted with French. It stresses more emphasis on French life than on grammar; this is called “French Life and Literature.” This is just part of the work she does for the study of French. HARRY J. DOWNES Having entered Brookline High School along with the class of 1942, Air. Downes has seen to it that, for the past three years, our football team has trounced its Turkey Day pigskin rival. If you ' re ever anxious to find him, wander up to the Mathematics Department and hunt for a room whose blackboards are covered equally with problems in algebra and diagrams of gridiron plays. HELEN S. COLLINS That Miss Collins takes more than a passing interest in the subject she teaches is evident to anyone who no- tices that this instructor belongs to the National Council of Mathematics and the New England Association of Teachers of Mathematics. The Brook- line High Girls’ League, also, is grate- ful for her helpful participation in many of their activities. JOHN B. DUNN The man who is partially responsi- ble for bunding up future great Brook- line High football teams is Mr. Dunn, who each year helps to coach the fresh- man pigskin squad. Away from the gridiron, he apportions his time among the Pierce and Driscoll grammar schools and Brookline High, at all three of which he teaches physical ed- ucation to boys. 18 GUY O. EDMUNDS Mr. Edmunds is contributing a con- siderable amount of his time and en- ergy toward the strengthening of Na- tional Defense, by supervising a sub- ject of that name and by teaching shop theory. Outside of the Industrial Arts Department, he serves as a member of the Brookline High Safety Committee, and as an examiner for several Boy Scout Merit Badges. ARTHUR W. FLEMINGS The person who contributes so much to our entertainment, both with his own beautiful voice and the interesting work done by his choral speaking group, is Mr. Flemings. A teacher of English, he is also responsible, as one of the founders of the recently organ- ized Boys’ Club, for opening to our male students many more roads to pleasurable pastimes. CHRISTIAN WALTER EHNES Versatile Mr. Ehnes is “on the go” ' almost every minute of the school day. In the morning, he checks the attend- ance of Akers House boys ; during the actual school day, he teaches book- keeping and business training; and into the afternoon, he acts as adviser to the Sagamore’s advertising staff or at- tends the meetings of numerous com- mittees. KATHERINE FORBES As secretary to the headmaster, Miss Forbes takes Mr. Ringer’s dicta- tion, and has charge of his outer office. In addition to these duties, she is re- sponsible for the clerical work dealing with the faculty, particularly that part of it concerning their payroll and at- tendance. MARY C. FINNEGAN Miss Finnegan assumed for a time this year a position in the Brookline High offices. In that capacity as our school registrar, she arranged the rec- ords of transferring students, and did other general compiling and reference work. Now 7 she has returned to her duties as secretary-pianist in the Phy- sical Education Department. DIEPOLD FRIEDLAND With the innumerable jobs his vari- ous positions entail, Mr. Friedland must be one of those people who would welcome a thirty-six hour day. Never- theless, in the twenty-four we now have, he manages to act successfully as sole teacher of German in the school, and is an adviser for the Junior Red Cross, Boys’ Club, and Sagamore. THOMAS E. FITZGERALD One of the first indications of Spring for those at Brookline High is Mr. Fitzgerald and the varsity baseball team at practice. Like many of our athletic coaches, this well-liked teacher has a classroom in the mathematics department. SAMUEL B. GOULD Mr. Gould, who teaches English and Radio Appreciation, and who serves on the School Council, is the person mainly responsible for opening to Brookline High students a fascinating new field of activity, radio broadcast- ing. He has helped the Mercureans, in no small measure, to meet the prob- lems of writing, producing, and actual- ly sending a program over the air w 7 aves. BLANCHE FITZHENRY Coming from the Devotion School this year, Miss Fitzhenry, with her w r arm smile and friendly personality, has, in a very short time, widened her circle of friends greatly. Holding a position on the faculty of our English Department, she is living up to the fine reputation she established as a gram- mar school teacher. MARION GRAHAM Mrs. Graham, who manages nine lunchrooms, never has too many free moments. As assistant to Mrs. Potter, she is the purchasing agent for all Brookline School lunchrooms, directs the kitchen work in the High School, prepares various records, and selects and supervises the student lunchroom staff. 19 M. S. GREENSHI ELDS Known as a thorough and methodi- cal teacher. Miss Greenshields tries to impress her classes with the impor- tance of adopting a business like atti- tude toward their work. She trains pupils in typewriting and stenography in such a manner that they will be val- uable office workers. LOUISE A. HANNON This respected head of the Speech Department, although absent for two years because of serious illness, still ranks high in the estimation of the graduating class, the last group fort- unate to have a full year’s tutelage under her direction. They well remem- ber outstanding Prize Speaking pro- grams and good work with the De- bating Society. WILLIAM G. GRINNELL We owe a great deal to Mr. Grinnell, both athletically and academically. As assistant to Mr. Downes, in the Fall, and coach of the frosh basketball team, in the Winter, he has done much to whip our various teams into good shape. He is a popular teacher in the English Department and a member of the Examination Schedule and Pack- ard House Activities Committees. ANNETTE B. HARVEY Her intense interest in the teaching of our native tongue has earned Mrs. Harvey the position of chairman of the Sophomore English Composition Com- mittee. Besides offering the prescribed course to her classes, she also tries to instruct pupils in correct and careful working habits. FAITH J. HALE Drawing and painting are difficult subjects to learn, but pupils find that they can accomplish a great deal with Miss Hale ' s expert help. The Art De- partment is indeed fortunate to have this talented and cheerful teacher as a member. She also gives her expert in- struction in the Evening School. j W PATIENCE B. HENDERSON All who have taken it agree that Mrs. Henderson’s new course in Social Customs is both worthwhile and inter- esting. This is because she has spent much time in perfecting it. However, she has found time for many other ac- tivities, since she is a teacher of Eng- lish and a “private” in many organiza- tions. f GRACE A. HAMBLIN Miss Hamblin knows how essential it is to train students in accuracy and efficiency, not only in school work, but in everything they do. She empha- sizes these points in her classes of Typewriting and Stenography so that the pupils will be well equipped to meet the demands of the business world. HELEN DAY HEUSNER A teacher in both the Junior and the English Departments, Mrs. Heusner teaches English to sophomores, and arithmetic, as well as this subject, to our “sub-freshmen.” To her goes much of the credit for some of the fine work done by the Junior Department in helping girls and boys bridge the gap between grammar and high school. MARION B. HANNON Mrs. Hannon, who was formerly Mr. Ringer’s personal secretary as well as Secretary of the Faculty, left the Brookline High School after ten years of service. She takes with her the best wishes of both the students and fa- culty in establishing her new home. THOMAS H. HINES The department of physical educa- tion in the public schools of Brookline is ably headed by Thomas H. Hines. Not satisfied with having a son in our armed forces, Mr. Hines has taken upon himself the added responsibility of directing the work of the Young Man’s Auxiliary Police Force, and also takes part in Air Raid Precaution. 20 JOHN F. HJORT ' I ' he sound of clanging tools and rat- tling mechanical devices, issuing from the machine shop, may be coming from one of the classes of Mr. Hjort, a new- ly added member of the Industrial Arts Department. The natural ability which he possesses was developed at the Worcester Trade School and by actual shop experience is now cheer- fully passed on to students. FRANCENIA J. HORN Most of the fine decorations seen at Girls’ League and Foster Club meet- ings have been fashioned under the expert guidance of Miss Horn. Be- sides belonging to the Brookline High Art Department, she is the vice-presi- dent of the Massachusetts School of Art. VELMA HOLBROOK Since the course in grammar-school French has been discontinued, Miss Holbrook now devotes herself solely to high school students. However, their loss is our gain, for she has proved a valuable member of the Modern Lan- guage Department, and as head of the Lost and Found, has helped many pu- pils to track down lost articles. ELEANOR JOHNSON Her vivacious, energetic manner make Miss Johnson a favorite with all who know her. She teaches English, takes the attendance for Roberts and Lincoln House girls, is an adviser for the Girls’ League, and always finds time to give help to a student in either academic or extra-curricular work. BERTRAM H. HOLLAND This year’s freshmen have been priv- ileged to have Mr. Holland as their new Housemaster of Packard House. Long a member of the Science Depart- ment or a backer of biology to sopho- mores he has taken over his new duties easily and efficiently. He is also on the committee for conservation of paper, as well as a member of the Brookline District Committee of the Boy Scouts. GORDON A. JOSLIN At assemblies, plays, football games, and other high school affairs, Mr. Jos- lin, as leader of the band and orches- tra, has become a familiar figure. A teacher of music courses in several Brookline schools and a member of our Auditorium Committee, he is known as president of the Massachusetts Music Educators Association. 0 LELAND G. HOLLINGWORTH The genial, though busy, head of the Science Department considers the task of supervising the many subjects which fall under this category as only a part of his work. In addition, he per- sonally instructs three classes in Chemistry, heads the Grade School Science Committee, and gives consid- erable attention to meetings of the Scholarship Committee. ELIZABETH JOSLIN Cooking is a very useful and neces- sary accomplishment, and under the direction of Mrs. Joslin, the study of it can be very enjoyable. Her willing- ness to help students gain a fuller and broader knowledge about fine cuisine has made this member of the faculty very popular in the Social Arts De- partment. ARTHUR C. HOLTON This year the school has welcomed back Mr. Holton after a serious injury that kept him away for most of last year. Forced to take a less active part in the work of the school than he used to do, he still teaches the classes in electricity, which are becoming in- creasingly important with the war effort and helps advise the stage staff. RACHEL L. KELLEY No relation to Colin of the same name is Miss Rachel Kelley, head of the girls’ Physical Education Depart- ment. Well known to the girls of Brookline High School, she is also well known to the boys through the results she has achieved. Because of the im- portant place women are now taking in the war effort, her efforts will, no doubt, be well rewarded. 21 TYLER KEPNER Although Mr. Kepner is supervisor of Social Studies in the Brookline School System, he also teaches several college preparatory classes in U. S. History. In spite of this full program, he found time to supervise the revised publication of his textbook, America, now used in the Senior History classes. ANNA R. LIDEN M iss Liden, who admonishes her students not to “let George do it”, ac- tually practices what she preaches. Formerly head of Akers House, she now keeps well occupied as attendance officer for Packard and Shailer girls, as a member of the Shailer Council, and as a teacher of geometry in the Mathematics Dept. RUTH M. LaPOIXTE As assistant school librarian. Miss LaPointe has been most helpful to stu- dents. both by aiding them in their se- lection of books and by doing her share to make the library an attractive, useful organization. The Library Staff, especially, owes a great deal to her cheerful and patient helpfulness. EDWARD J. LISTOX Dr. Liston comes to Brookline High from Washington state. An exchange teacher for our own Mr. Miller, he, this year, has taken over the duties of that instructor in the Social Studies Department. These tasks include in- structing classes in non-college United States History. CELINA H. LEWIS Miss Lewis has received recognition in many circles as a book reviewer of merit. She helps arouse our interest in modern and classical reading matter as adviser to the Literary Circle, and as an instructor in English. She de- votes her energy to teaching in the evening, also, as a leader of the Boston Center of Adult Education. CARROLL H. LOWE Mr. Lowe is a well-liked teacher in the Science Department for he teaches Physics with an infectious enthusiasm. It is understood that the students in his classes are particularly well in- formed about this subject and about Science in general. FLORENCE E. LEWIS Miss Lewis ' s interest in her subject, Geography, extends beyond the con- fines of the classroom, for she does much committee work in connection with that study in the Social Studies Department. As a member of the Packard House Council, she has this year helped the freshman class with the management of house affairs. GILBERT G. MacDOXALD It is doubtful whether our hoopsters would have reached the heights they did this year without benefit of Mr. MacDonald’s able coaching. When not helping to build a Tech Tourna- ment basketball team, as one of the two Junior Department instructors, he can be found teaching Mathematics and English. VERA E. LIBBY Miss Libby, though she has been with our school for less than three years, is held in high regard here as she was formerly at the Runkle School. She has already made a definite place for herself in the life of Brookline High as a teacher of English and as a faculty representative to the School Council. ANXA L. MAGUIRE Miss Maguire may be receiving fre- quent visits from numerous pupils for several reasons. It is possible that they wish to discuss their work in typewrit- ing or bookkeeping, or that they are seeking supplies from the Commercial Department supply room, of which Miss Maguire is in charge. 22 PAUL W. MATHER This year has seen Mr. Mather in the honored position of President of the Brookline Teachers Club. Having secured the esteem of the faculty of our school, he is receiving that of the students for his other fine work. Be- sides being a popular teacher of French in the Modern Language Department, he helps to represent Lincoln House at School Council meetings. FLORENCE G. NASMITH In common with many of the mem- bers of the Social Studies Department, Mrs. Nasmyth is very much inter- ested in current international events and their causes and effects. For this reason, she offers to her classes in mod- ern and ancient History supplement- ary information on these matters. She is also very willing to help out any students in school who are interested in this field. JANE A. McCABE When not striving to give us the best possible assembly periods, Miss McCabe, chairman of the Auditorium Committee, teaches Civics and Mod- ern European History. It can be seen that she takes a vital interest in these subjects since she is a member of sev- eral social studies committees. FRANCIS W. NEWSOM Long associated with the editorial staff of the Sagamore, Mr. Newsom has this year returned to take charge of the feature section of the school newspaper. A teacher of English, who himself specializes in poetry, he is well qualified to offer constructive advice to those putting out our bi-weekly journal. anne s. McCarthy The absence lists, slips, and notices distributed every morning are the care- fully prepared work of Miss Mc- Carthy, the attendance secretary. A new member of the Administrative De- partment, she carries on in the general office, handling filing and reference material particularly. MIRIAM A. NICHOLS The teaching of United States His- tory, as thoroughly as this is done in Brookline’s Social Studies Depart- ment, is a time consuming task in it- self. Nevertheless, Miss Nichols man- ages to find some minutes in which to help take charge of High School Girl Scout Meetings, to participate in cur- riculum revision committee functions and to serve as Vice President of the Teachers Club. RALPH D. McCLEARY Those pupils whose interest in ma- thematics carries them through the intricacies of the first three years of that subject may study mathematics under Mr. McLeary. The head of his department, he has written a text book which is used in this school. His extra- curricular work in Brookline High in- cludes his position on the Counseling Committee. ADELINE F. NICKERSON Miss Nickerson, besides endeavor- ing to make students understand the fundamentals of bookkeeping and jun- ior business training, tries to give them training for future efficiency in the business world. She has been able to give house treasurers further valuable advice in her capacity as assistant treasurer for the houses. EDWARD H. MERRILL Air. Merrill, an instructor in L’nited States History and Problems of De- mocracy, offers, to those in his classes, courses which have taken on added meaning since world affairs have been in such a chaotic state. The wide ex- perience he has gained teaching these subjects holds him in good stead on several committees connected with the Social Studies Department. f V . V ,, KATHRYN L. O’BRIEN Near the door of Miss O ' Brien’s office hangs the sign, “Ici on parle Francais,” for, as head of the Modern Language Department, she is anxious that students master thoroughly the tongue she teaches. She manifests this same earnestness of purpose, all year long, since she also instructs pupils at the Middlebury College French Sum- mer School. 23 MARION W. PARKER As Director of all phases of Art Ed- ucation in Brookline, Miss Parker su- pervises the subject in all the grades up through High School. An adviser to the Girls’ League, the Poster Club, and the Dramatic Society, she helps greatly in the activities of these organ- izations, particularly when decora- tions, posters, and programs are needed. EMMA POLAND Another person who can count her spare moments on one hand is the Commercial Department’s Miss Po- land, most of whose school time is spent administrating Akers House af- fairs. However, in spite of this work, she is able conscientiously and effi- ciently to act as President of the School Council and as adviser to the Mariners and to the Girls’ League. JANE W. PERKINS With her seemingly endless supply of interesting and amusing anecdotes, Miss Perkins stimulates interest in Latin grammar and poetry, subjects she teaches as head of this ancient lan- guage department. She also leads two other groups, namely the Homeroom Committee and Alpha Pi. ELVIRA EGLEE POTTER The lunchroom, foods classes, nee- dlework classes — all these come under the supervision of Mrs. Potter, for she is the head of the Social Arts Depart- ment. Special entertainments and so- cial affairs also are in her charge, espe- cially those of the Girls’ League and the Dramatic Society. ALINE PERRIN To vary the routine of the French classes, Miss Perrin tells her pupils interesting facts about the history, lit- erature, and geography of France. Her sense of humor and popularity make her an indispensable member of the Modern Language Department and Le Cercle Francais, of which she is an adviser. JANE G. RICKER One of the most charming and well- liked members of the Modern Lan- guage Department is Miss Ricker, who makes even the chore of mastering French pronunciation and gra mmar an almost enjoyable one for her pupils. Her pleasant company is also shared by members of the Girls’ League, when she attends meetings as one of its ad- visers. MARGUERITE PELEGHAAR Like most of the other teachers of the Modern Language Department, Miss Pfleghaar enjoys travel and has made journeys to France and other foreign countries. The students in her French classes feel infinitely close to that country because their teacher of- ten recounts tales of her memorable adventures there. NEWTON RODEHEAVER A newcomer as a regular member of the staff in the Department of Social Studies, Mr. Rodeheaver teaches both Ancient and L ' nited States History. Since he holds membership in the Committee on Civic Education and in the National Council for the Social Studies, he keeps well informed about the recent developments in the field. E. LENORE PLACIDO The Spanish division of the Modern Language Department profits greatly by the tireless energy of Miss Placido. Always “on the go,” she teaches Span- ish classes and acts as adviser of El Circulo Espanol. BENJAMIN D. ROMAN Although comparatively few stu- dents have been in Mr. Roman’s Latin classes, many more persons in Brook- line High have taken advantage of his kindly patient counsel. He has helped set numerous pupils “on the right track” either in his capacity as Student Guidance Director or as faculty ad- viser to the Court of Justice. 24 MARY V. SAWYER Miss Sawyer’s desk is always buried under a motley collection of papers, consisting of college application blanks, personality rating sheets, and English tests. As a teacher of this sub- ject, head of Shailer House, and Dean of Girls, her time, as well as her office space, is always more than adequately filled. ALBERT SHEPARD Because of his unusual training and ability, Mr. Shepard has the distinc- tion of having taught, at one time or another, almost every language that is commonly listed on school curricula. He continues this type of work outside of school as an examiner in modern languages for the Boy Scout Troops of Brookline. MARY SCANNELL Miss Scannell is a well-known figure in our messhall. The secretary-book- keeper for nine school lunchrooms, she does the necessary office work for these groups, and assists in the preparation of refreshments for such social func- tions, at the High School, as the Girls’ League Supper Party. CARL A. SMITH Mr. Smith of the Industrial Arts De- partment looks upon printing not only as a subject to be taught but also as a very real interest. This enthusiasm for his work enables him to offer to his students in both the day and evening schools a very interesting and benficial course. ALBERT SEAMANS It is only fitting that this year’s Murivian should be dedicated to the head man in Roberts House, who has helped bear most of the problems of the largest graduating class in this school’s history. In addition to this special service, he has rendered inval- uable aid to the entire school as a member of the Handbook and Activi- ties Committees. WENDELL F. SMITH The Dramatic Society owes much of the financial success of its various productions to Mr. Smith’s guidance. It seems appropriate that a teacher of Geography should also be adviser to the Stamp Club, and a member of the Scholarship and the Curriculum Com- mittee for Social Studies. CHESTER G. SEAMANS Upon the fourth floor in Brookline High’s “Latin Quarter” may be found Mr. Seamans, who, in addition to hav- ing contributed two very well-liked children to the student body, has aug- mented his own popularity as an ad- viser to the Boys’ Club. Our popular teacher is also known as an instructor at the Episcopal School of Religion and the American Youth Foundation. MURIEL SOUTH Cooking, as many pupils of Miss South have discovered, can properly be called an art. In her regular classes and at meetings of the Boys’ and Girls’ Food Clubs, she tries to show them the “tricks of the trade” and to impart in them both skill and confidence. 0 8 CAROLINE R. SIEBENS Compiling book lists for the school at large ; personally aiding pupils in their selection of reading matter; teaching library science to interested pupils ; all these are tasks performed by Mrs. Siebens who has charge of our very modern reading and reference rooms. Well known in New England library circles, she holds several note- worthy positions in these groups. ALICE HOWARD SPAULDING The number of activities in which Miss Spaulding participates can hard- ly be equalled by any three other peo- ple. We know her as the head of the English Department, and, hence, the supervising member ex-officio of the English Club, the Sagamore and Pub- lic Speaking; and an English teacher outside of Brookline High, she is also active in similar fields. 25 HAROLD B. SYLVESTER Few students realize that articles by our own Mr. Sylvester have appeared in numerous magazines and journals. However, such information about this man with the perpetual twinkle in his eye. a teacher of Mechanical Drawing and a member of the Reading Commit- tee. could not make us think more than we already do of hi E. MONTGOMERY WELLS Mr. Wells, in his ' Physics and Gen- eral Sciepce Lasses, gives his students an especially good background for fu- ture- ' midy. After hours, especially at the beginning and at the end of the school year, he frequently is occupied with the duties which he must perform as head of the locker roqwjs?— RALPH W. TOT MAN Mr. Totman ' s office always seems crowded with pupils waiting to talk with him. for his duties, as head of Lincoln House, are many. Besides helping to guide the juniors he uses his past legal experience to good advan- tage when he teaches civics in the So- cial Studies Department. EVERETT F. WEYGANT Mr. Weygant, whose specialty is track, may often be seen at Tech Field helping out Mr. Bates. Formerly affil- iated with the Devotion School, he, because of his present connection with the Brookline High Physical Educa- tion Department, teaches First Aid. the new subject for all students. COXGETTA S. VANACORE Miss Vanacore ' s classroom is often filled with students more than five hours a day. Known for the intensive and thorough manner in which she teaches Latin, she generously offers much of her time after school in order to help pupils become masters of gram- mar, Caesar, and Cicero. FLORA VARRIN WILKINSON With her truly continental person- ality, Madame Wilkinson has made the study of her native tongue different and delightful for students in her French classes. She has tried further to make pupils feel that the language and country are closer to them by serv- ing as one of the advisers to the “Circle Franqais.” JOHN WALL A newcomer to the faculty of our school this year, Mr. Wall already is active in both curricular and extra- curricular activities. He teaches type- writing, office practice, and junior business training, and, after one- thirty, assists the Circulation Depart- ment of the Sagamore. TRASK H. WILKINSON Continually working to make the English Club, of which he is the fa- culty adviser, a still better and more active organization is Mr. Wilkinson of the English Department. He seems to enjoy teaching his subject, for be- sides his position in our school, he also instructs at the Boston Center of Adult Education. ALFRED C. WEBBER The cheerful smiling teacher who daily takes the attendance of Shailer House boys is Mr. Webber of the Science Department. He teaches Phy- sics and General Science from 8:30 to 1 :30 and often spends his afternoon either offering helpful hints to the Camera Club or attending meetings of the Grade School Science Committee. PAUL A. WILLIAMS Mr. Williams might well be called one of our school librarians, for his is the time-consuming task of seeing to it that copies of Hamlet, Macbeth , and the like, are removed from the English Book Room and distributed to the pro- per classes at the proper time. As a member of this language department he lends a helping hand to the Muriv- ian’s editorial staff. 26 REBEKAH WOOD So interested in El Circulo Espanol that she collects all Sagamore articles about it, Miss Wood is not just an ad- viser of this club, but one of its staunchest supporters. The Modern Language Department claims her as a teacher of Spanish, and the Akers House Council acknowledges her par- ticipation in many of its activities. FREDRICK I. WOODCOCK Mechanical Drawing is becoming more and more popular, especially as taught by Mr. Woodlock, whose work has earned him a position on the Ex- ecutive Committee of the Mechanical Drawing Association of New England. One of the jolliest people in the Indus- trial Arts Department, he is a member of the Education Week Committee and the supervisor of the Lawrence Playground. (I ft Lucly j ' • ' a.

Guided through the first confusing days by a group of helpful senior advisers, they soon began to take an active part in many functions, and. at the end of four years, became not only an integral part of the school but also its ruling power. Unit I: The Class of 1942 — A Part of Brookline High School The Class’s Political Beginnings Being diplomatic, the freshmen allowed their older brothers and sisters to hold most positions of leadership, but managed, nevertheless, to make their own presence felt in the school ' s political circles. In the middle of the year, house elections brought forth Fred Holton, Jeanne Rogers, Shirley Applebaum, and Robert Langer as Treasurer, Secretary, Vice-President, and President respectively. Bob, holding the highest office, automatically represented Roberts House in the Court of Justice and the School Council. Growth of Democracy The following year, the short ballot gave way to a slightly longer one as Jack Drey fuss assumed the duties of Chief Executive; Barbara Bam . of Vice President and representative of the School Council ; Jeanne Kerwin. of keeper of the records; Fred Holton, of budgeteer and delegate to the Court of Justice; and Bob Langer, of floor cap- tain of the Roberts marshals. The 1939-1940 election indicated how well affairs had prospered under the Dreyfuss regime, for there resulted from it no appreciable change of officers. At the beginning of their senior year, however, the members of Roberts House saw fit to substitute, on their slate of officers, Edna Simons, who was to take the minutes at later meetings, and Bob Baker, to wield the gavel at these gatherings. Soon after this, the two groups composing the graduating class chose the persons who were to administrate their final business as members of the Brookline High student body. Since among the honored four were President Robert Baker, Vice President Barbara Barry, Secretary Jeanne Kerwin and Treasurer Fred Holton, persons previously on the Roberts House Executive Board, several vacancies were crying to be filled. The candidates who successfully jumped the hurdle of a special election to satisfy these positions were Wesley Baker. Jeane Scheinfeldt, and Peter Argus. Unit II: Cultural and Social Activities Education Adapts Itself The clever class of 1942 distin guished itself considerably in extra- curricular fields. Displaying proficiency in languages, its versatile members became leaders in many clubs affiliated with these subjects. Fred Holton, who had served as Treasurer the year before, headed the English Club this past season. The French Club functions were administered by Isabel Sharenson, who had gained previous experience as Secretary of the organization. Martin Cohen led the German Club; Pierette Mettetal was the President of El Circulo Espanol. On the scientific side of the ledger, Dolly Driscoll and Stan Feldberg were listed as those guiding the affairs of the Science and Camera Clubs. The Speech Department, too, has utilized the services of 42’s actors and public speakers. No year has passed in which someone from Roberts House has not won Prize Speaking. Furthermore Jack Drey- fuss has seen to it, for two years, that the Dramatic Society’s affairs have run smoothly, and Bob Langer, in Miss Hannon’s absence, has counseled and watched out admirably for the welfare of the debates. Musical talent asserted itself during the group’s youth. As freshman, Vera Kassman and Rosanne Saftel were honored by an invitation to join the Orpheus Ensemble, and this same body soon received several more of their classmates. The Brookline High School pub- lications received attention from aspiring journalists. The Sagamore was Virginia Berman ' s main concern, the Murivian, that of Rosalie McEwan. X. B. Two girls distinguished themselves as editors. The all-encompassing tasks of the Girls’ League were supervised for tw ' o years by two persons who claimed membership in the class now ' bidding farewell to B.H.S., once by Jane Driscoll and, then, by her successor Jeanne Scheinfeldt. During the past four years this organi- zation, the largest in the school, saluted a brother club recently organized. The Boys’ Club, this year, was fortunate to have as its President Fred Holton. Other groups w ' hich have developed rapidly during this same period of time are the Mercureans, connected with the radio department, and the Poster Club, associated with the Art courses. The Student Makes Scholastic as Well as Social Gains One of the accomplishments which set the members of the Class of 1942 apart from all others W ' as their ability to have their names placed, not on the third or second, but on the first honor roll. Names appear- ing on this list, often more than once, w ' ere those of Barbara Alpern, Shirley Applebaum, Barbara Barry, Julian Cohen, Mary Conroy, Ida Hirshberg, Robert Langer, Phyllis Scheffreen, Renate Schmidt, Isabel Sharenson, Adele Tischler, and Fred Holton. The Gilded Age Although these people may have made decided scholastic gains, they definitely were not grinds. They know fully well how to enjoy themselves. In fact they staged two highly successful dances. At an informal Junior Prom held at Devotion Hall, more than one hundred couples enjoyed the music of Chappie Arnold. The following year w ' as climaxed by a superb formal ball at the Driscoll Casino, where, for the evening of May 29 only, the management was featuring Bert Edward’s Orchestra. Unit III: The Class of 1942 As a World Power Our Resources Help Bring Victory to Brookline High School The men of Roberts and Shailer Houses plugged along silently, during their first years at B. H. S., preparing themselves for future stardom, w’hen they W ' ould gain personal recognition from their classmates, and glory for their school from the state at large. The opportunity to prove themselves came, for the most part, in their senior year. Captain Wes Baker plunged on through a good football season, climaxed w ' hen he and his sterling eleven smothered Newton for the third successive year. Fred Carreiro, Captain and star of the track squad, reached new heights in hi gh jumping w ' hile pacing his team in a fine season. Co-captains Pete Young and Charles Mooney paved the way to the Tech Tournament for our hoopsters. The hockey team came out of its cellar quarters and occupied third place in the league, because of the sparking of Captain Dick McLaughlin. Stan Muir and Fred Holton led the sw ' imming and tennis teams respectively. A Backward Glance At Our Economic Life As we look back over the years from 1938-1942, we find the class of 1942 engaged in a three-point plan of economic life. To protect themselves against future indigence, its citizens have been banking their money in the school bank. The executive positions of this department were held by Isabel Sharenson and Henry Rivitz. Realizing the need of the less fortunate, the generous persons in this class, under the leadership of Eugene Rubin, answered the call of the Red Cross The third activity has been but recently made possible. Under the same management as the banking, far-sighted people are now ' buying United States War Savings Stamps in order that they may help to insure future national as w ' ell as personal independence. The Class of 1942 in National Politics Not content merely to learn about the functions of their national government from books, several outstanding boys and girls of the class of 1942 were sent to Washington to get first-hand information about our democracy. In 1941, Robert Langer and Robert Baker represented Brookline High School at the Institute of National Gov- ernment. In 1942, a larger contingent, composed of Isabel Sharenson, Rosemarie Farkas, Jeanne Scheinfeldt, and Jane Driscoll, was sent. Through the eyes of these people, the entire student body became better acquainted with vital affairs in Washington. Unit IV: Today’s Problems for the Class of 1942 Difficult Problems Confront the Graduates As they neared the close of their high school days, the members of the class of 1942 met several difficult situations with which they had to cope. The four major problems confronting them were: 1. The choosing of a ring and pin suitable for all, 2. The selecting of a different and practical gift for the school, 3. The execution of an impressive class day, 4. The presentation of a successful prom. Jeanne Scheinfeldt headed the committee which had before it the task of making Class Day as significant as possible. Helen Dillon and Jack Dreyfuss, chairmen of the Ring and Pin and Gift committees, were confronted w ' ith a money problem. Their jobs were made increasingly difficult by ever-rising prices. On the social side, there were many perplexing issues presented by the Senior Prom, for this gala event was to climax the class’s lighter life at Brookline High. Although these obstacles seemed great at first, the able com- mittees overcame all of them to their classmates’ satisfaction. Whither the Class of 1942 This class has come of age at a feverishly busy time. It is the first group to be graduated from Brookline High School during World War No. 2. For some of its members jobs of all sorts are awaiting. Other persons are leaving for schools of higher learning. No matter W ' here they go, however, the benefit of the years they spent at Brookline High w ' ill long remain with them. N. B. We humbly apologize to Mr. Tyler Kepner and Professor Harold Underwood Faulkner for the liberties we have taken with the titles in their book America. How ' ever, since it is the only history text-book many of the seniors have used, it was necessary that we model our quite inferior piece of work after it.

Maybe you can make the football team with these, sister. 10. We leave, wondering what Peggy Egan, the Kerwin sisters and Betty Girard really look like. Here’s a paint scraper, girls. 11.

MURIVIAN COMMITTEE ROW 1 : Mr. Williams, Haves, Mekelberg, Seltzer, Kabatznick, Sawin, Warren. Kessler. Hall, Silverman, Mr. Blanchard. ROW 2: Goldberg. B. Bornstein, H. Bornstein, McEwan, Langer, Freedman. Lippa, Hirschberg. ROW 3 : Slater, Alpern, Morton, Miller, Cohen. Kendrick, Wolfson, Gosdanian. Poor Mr. Blanchard! Poor Mr. Williams! These are the only words we can utter when we think of the bedlam reigning every afternoon, in 201 and 239, as the business and editorial staffs of the Murivian carry on their work. If You, Bill, or Betsy Brookline, doubt the veracity of this statement, drop in on these scenes of confusion almost any day. As you near the doors, from a distance, you ' ll be able to hear shouts of Where are those thirty-four writeups the typist has had for a month?” or perhaps, “I ' ve counted the money twice and I still find this en- velope fifty cents short.” However, as you cross the threshold of these humming scenes of activity you will observe, undoubtedly with sur- prise, that the boys and girls with ink and black smudges across their faces, and their sleeves rolled up are sweating over work which exists not alone in their minds. In one corner, a group is shuffling through candid pictures to determine the best ones to complete a panel. Another, surrounded by paste, pencils, and rulers, is actually put- ting the dummy together. Still a third, is busy correcting the galley which the printer has returned. Anyone who wants to stay on the Murivian Staff doesn’t just hang around. From a serious point of view, however, the committee has successfully met obstacles caused by war limitations. It wishes to give thanks to the following students, who, though not on the staff, make several contributions : Svdelle Singer, John Chmielinski, Stanley Wald, Alan Tichnor, and Stanley Feldberg. 76 f! ; y-JT w k r v. 78 SHAILER HOUSE OFFICERS Richard McLaughlin, Secretary; Daniel Rothenberg, Treasurer; Thomas Hunter, Vice President ; James Love, President. SHAILER HOUSE Up four flights of stairs in the “penthouse” of Brook- line High School is a group of about 125 students, sole remnant of the once populous Shailer House. The housemaster of the body is Miss Mary W. Sawyer, who has served untiringly in that capacity since the group entered in 1937 and has acted as personal friend and adviser to each and every student. This year, these re- maining “Shailerites,” under her expert guidance, will follow in the wake of those who were graduated last year ; and they will leave forever the halls of Brookline High School. Although Shailer House is the smallest one in the school, nevertheless it has a government that is the equal, in all respects, of those maintained by the other houses. The house council is composed of a chairman from each of the five home rooms, and the house officers who preside at its meetings. In addition, three faculty members lend their advice and experience. The officers were chosen in the house-wide election held at the be- ginning of the year. Versatile and popular Jimmy Love was elected as president; Tommy Hunter, the “Smooth Stephen” of Brookline High, became vice president; Dick McLaughlin was chosen to take notes at the coun- cil meetings ; and Dan Rothenberg was delegated to handle the affairs of the exchequer. A marshal force was elected at the same time, composed of two from each of the five home rooms, and four from the house at large. Besides Dorothy Driscoll, who is floor cap- tain, and the house officers, the other marshals include Jane Adams, Jack Craven, James Blue, Robert Ryan, Dick Graham, Sara London, Paul Sperling, Marylin Miller, and Sara Seltzer. Shailer House has been well represented on the quart- erly honor-rolls. Mary Conroy has been wavering be- tween the first and second during the whole year. Mar- vin Collier, Marilyn Werby, Jane Adams, George Meuse, Leon Katzeff, Dick Honthumb, Bernard Kap- lan, Jimmy Love, Dick McLaughlin, John Caton, and Betty Finkel are but a few of those who have also made the honor rolls. These students are doing a fine job in proving the truth of the adage, “True wisdom comes only with the years.” The prominence of Shailer House in the school as a whole might well be due to the heritage which it pos- sesses in its name. The Reverend William Shailer was for fifteen years an outstanding school-committee mem- ber, and, to a large extent, was instrumental in estab- lishing a high school in Brookline. Were he alive to- day, he might well be proud of the record of the group that bears his name. 79 418-419 ROW 1 : Brown, Chertkower. Blue (Chm.), Miss Libby, Miss Perkins. J.

ROW 2: Edna Simons, Secretary; Mr. Seamans, Housemaster; Peter Argus, Treasurer. For most of the members of Roberts House, 1942 is a banner year since it marks the end of four memorable years at Brookline High School. With Mr. Albert Seamans helping to direct their efforts, these persons ' now not only make it the largest graduating class in Brookline’s history, but also can say that they have accomplished much during their short high school career. Scholastically, especially, they have called everyone’s attention to their accomplishments. The whole student body gasped when they saw on the first honor roll for the third quarter the names of five Roberts students. Barbara Alpern, Barbara Barry, Robert Langer, Renate Schmidt, and Adele Tischler were the people, whose achievements at this time, exemplified what their classmates had accomplished in other years. However, it cannot be said that this body of sen- iors has kept its nose in a book all the while. On May 29, 1942, according to custom, they displayed the gayer side of their natures when they joined forces with Shailer House to stage at Driscoll Hall a gala prom, featuring Bert Edwards and his orchestra. Student goverment, too, has not been lacking Roberts House participants. This group boasts the largest num- ber of marshals in any house. Xot only do John Daley and Helen Dillon, captain and assistant captain of the force, claim Roberts home rooms, but Ed Ryan, floor captain of this particular number of red and blue band bearers is in charge of the following efficient and relia- ble workers: Shirley Applebaum, Robert Baker, Wes- ley Baker, Barbara Barry, Dorothea Blanchard, Harold Bornstein, Paul Daitch, Jack Dreyfuss, Betty Egan, Rosemarie Farkas, Minna Golden, Harry Gold- stein, Ruth Hall, Fred Holton, Thomas Kendrick, Tucker Kinsman, Robert Langer, Herbert Lynn, Claire MacDonald, Robert Mealy, John Nason, Herbert O’Rourke, Dorsey Parker, Ruth Peabody, Elaine Penn, Lionel Perlo, John Pignato, Mark Ravreby, Elaine Rosenbaum, Phyllis Scheffreen, Jeanne Scheinfeldt, Isabel Sharenson, Freemont Sheldon, Edna Simons, Sherman Starr, Arnold Ulin, Joan Vitkin, and Peter Young. To end their last days at Brookline High School with somewhat of a flourish, in affiliation with Shailer House, once again, the Roberts boys and girls staged an impressive Class Day. Despite the fact that they were hindered by the obstacles which the war imposed, Jeanne Scheinfeldt and her committee managed to plan as enjoyable, if not as elaborate, a celebration as was known in previous years. Now looking forward to graduation, the members of Roberts House, having received the basic training which Brookline High School affords, are awaiting the future with great expectation and hope. 315 ROW 1 : Alpern.

ROW 2 : John Cox, Vice President ; Robert Abrams, Secretary; Mr. Totman, Housemaster. The season of 1941-1942 brought the students of Lincoln House, spurred on by their inspiring and enter- prising housemaster, Ralph W. Totman, into their junior year at Brookline High School. For the past year, this group has been guided by a quintet of unusually fine officers. Popular Fred Smythe has served admirably as President, athletic John Cox as Vice President, versatile Bob Abrams as Secretary, modest Helen McFlroy as Treasurer, and brilliant Jane Rickwood as Representative to the School Council. Together they have presided over the Lincoln House Council, composed of the chairmen and the vice chair- men elected in each of the fourteen home rooms. The council room this year has seen many discussions t ak- ing place inside its doors, not the least important of which has concerned the formation and announce- ment of the various committees for the long-awaited Junior Prom. Ray Barnstone held the coveted and important position of chairman of the entire event and also served on the band and hall committee. The ticket committee was headed by Nancy Peabody and Helen McElroy, the decoration committee by Eleanore Lew- enberg and Flo-Harriet Taylor, and the advertising committee by Norm Fink and Bill Troy. The scholastic standing of the junior class was furth- ered by such scholars as Nancy Peabody, Ray Barn- stone, Beatrice Bernstein, Norma Adelson, Jane Rick- wood, and several others. No history of a class at the High School would be complete without any mention of its marshal force. Lincoln House was ably and efficiently headed by popular “Mickey” Geller with Bill Troy serving capa- bly as representative to the Court of Justice. Other “Captains of the corridors” include Robert Abrams, Raymond Barnstone, James Barnet, Eleanor Arnold, Norma Adelson, William Bowen, Edward Burgess. Nicolette Demeter, Zalman Davlin, Alan Goldberg, Franklin Garfield, Ruth Gordon, Evelyn Gorfinkel, Sally Ginsberg, Norman Fink, Virginia Eldridge, Alan Hingston, Frank Harrington, William Jacobs, Norma Johnson, Evelyn Kirraine, Peter Liacopolous, Ruth Linskey, Myron Markel, Nancy Peabody, Robert Mur- ray, Jane Rickwood, Bert Rabinowitz, Janice Saklad, Robert Sagansky, Hazel Simpson, Andre Speyer, and Adrienne Zacks. In addition to these previously mentioned, Lincoln House also boasts of many other achievements. A con- stitution, w ' hich has been read by every member of the class, has been drawn up. At their elections the stu- dents have been privileged to use one of Brookline’s new voting machines which are coming into more exten- sive use in town elections. On all fields of athletics may be seen members of the junior class. It is inter- esting to note how this house, seemingly more than any other, has gone in for varied activities in its extra- curricular program. Names too numerous to mention here may be seen on the rosters of almost every organ- ization in the high school. Next year this unusual class will become the senior, the graduating class, and it is the concensus of opinion that it will long be remem- bered in the records of Brookline High School. 100 ROW 1 : Bennett, Baker, Bragg, Mr. Friedland, Bern- stein (V.

ROW 2: Miss Poland, Housemaster; James Leslie, Treasurer; Patricia Northridge, Rep. School Council. From the beginning of its sophomore year, Akers House has plunged into the many activities at Brook- line High. Determined in every way to excel, it has become one of the outstanding classes at school. Em- phasizing scholarship as well as extra-curricular activi- ties and sports, Akers House has blended in with the other houses and is striving to reach its goal of perfec- tion. Under the expert guidance of “Uncle Art’’ Flemings, a choral reading group has sprung from his sophomore English class. Since the beginning of the year, this body has practiced during the twenty-minute study period each day and has kept late hours each Friday working on its production “The Murder in the Cathe- dral”. Its members had previously presented in a Thanksgiving auditorium program two selections demonstrating two entirely different types of choral reading. As well as several pieces on a school radio program, the girls of the class are, at present, carrying the honors in their production of “The Murder in the Cathedral” which is to be presented in the spring. Among the other assembly programs of which Akers House has been in charge during the past year are a Sagamore and a marshal auditorium period. When one observes the honor roll of this versatile class, he undoubtedly sees these names the most often : A. Alpern, D. Berlin, A. Cavallo, R. Cline, I. Clish, H. Erlich, A. Feldman, D. Goldstein, M. Haskell, E. Horne, A. Kabatznick, T. Lehrer, E. Lish, P. Mackay, H. Murphy, J. Rothblatt, D. Segre, J. Shoenberg, G. Susman, H. Vitkin, and G. Weinstein. Akers House is governed by the House Council, com- posed of the house officers and homeroom representa- tives, according to the laws of its constitution, drawn up this year by a selected group of students. These officers are elected annually by ballot. The executive board consists of the president, James Noonan; vice president, Eleanor McCaffery; secretary, Jacqueline McNeilly; treasurer, James Leslie, and representative to the school council, Patricia Northridge. The Marshal force of Akers House helps in no small measure to maintain order in Brookline High School. As floor captain, Jim Leslie keeps a cautious eye on his 38 red and blue arm band bearers. In this group according to their home rooms are: A. Alpern and P. Biel, C. Cook and F. Cooper, L. Brin and L. Cadiff, L. Estes and B. Dick, A. Feldman and D. Evans, M. Gordan and D. Goldstein, R. Harrison and E. Horne and M. Haskell, A. Katzenberg and J. Kendrick, M. Levin and T. Lehrer, R. McLaughlin and E. Mc- Caffery, R. Mulvey and A. Meehan and J. Noonan and F. O ' Hearn, B. Potter and M. Raftery, M. Rothenberg and M. Sagansky, M. Silverman and J. Shoenberg, R. Stern and H. Vitkin, M. Wallace and A. Wilkinson. Judging by past performances, one may feel certain that the sophomore class is destined to make a name for itself in future years. 93 200 ROW 1 : Blondes.

Unlike the Packard House of five years ago, the Freshmen did not begin the season by setting the High School afire; however, under the leadership of Mr. Holland, their deeds may yet duplicate those of their predecessors. In October the first elections were held — those for the homeroom positions. These were temporary, and the second elections were held in March. The home room chairmen, together with the house officers, con- stitute the Packard House Council. Under the super- vision of Miss F. Lewis, Miss Nichols and Mr. Holland, the following endeavor to manage the Packard House affairs. Reuben Adams, Elane Cohen, Barbara Dris- coll, David Durno, Graham Hamilton, Joan Hibbard, Marjorie Krensky, Robert Lurie, Meryl Michaels, Blanche Ring, Muriel Sanger, Milton Shore, Jerome Spier, John Walker, and David Stranahan. The Marshals were also elected in March, and stand ready under the leadership of Reuben Adams, floor captain. During the first meeting of the Packard House Marshals, Marjorie Krensky was elected marshal- representative to the Court of Justice. Those who are the proud possessors of bands are Sherman Clough, Reuben Adams, Paul Dellamano, Morton Franklin, Mitchel Halperin, William Heller, Donald Levy, Robert Marnoy, Russell Nagle, Theodore Raphael, Malcome Rosenburg, Harry Solomon, Jerome Spier, Joseph Williams, Nancy Conlin, Miriam Barap, Selma Crystal, Josephine Fineberg, Daphne Golden, Judith Hurwitz, Marjorie Krensky, Ruth MacDonald, Eliza- beth Meehan, Marjorie O’Brien, Helene Schumann, Marilyn Stone, and Elizabeth Wallace, while Lois Bernson, Joan Hibbard, Tema Kaplan, and Robert Davin are Marshals-at-Large. The highlight of the year was the election of house officers. Following the Lincoln House Plan, each can- didate for office had to obtain ten per cent of the House enrollment as endorsers, to be eligible for nomination. An assembly was held for the purpose of acquainting the freshman with their candidates. After the final votes were counted a few days later, the winners were found to be the very capable Reuben Adams, President ; Mar- jorie O ' Brien, Vice-President ; Ruth MacDonald, Sec- retary ; and Herbert Broner, Treasurer. We feel sure that these officers will carry on the high standards of Packard House. Scholarship has not been forgotten, for Sherman Clough and Robert Marnoy have received first honors, while several dozen students have attained a place on the second honor role. Among the boys, athletes were plenty, many playing on the frosh football team, which had a rather good season, losing but one game ; tying three and winning three. The freshmen were well represented on their basket- ball squad. However, because of National Defence they had an abbreviated season. After consideration we feel that the freshman class will uphold the Packard House Motto, “Aim High. 99 212 ROW 1 : F. Buckley, Bernson, Barap, Miss Xickerson. Do- reen, Adlow, Bines. ROW 2: Bradley.

Newton. This year ' s football team de- serves special praise for its outstanding spirit during the entire Fall season. No team could help but feel the loss, by graduation, of such stalwarts as Ed Nixon, Jim Fein- berg, Frank Kelley, and Jim Connolly but this year ' s team started from scratch, and as the final gun ended the season the 1941 edition of the Red and Blue team was again among the leaders in class B of the eastern Massachu- setts ratings. The Brookline captain was 240 pound Wes Baker, who was an inspiration to his team mates, not only by his sterl- ing play, but by his constant pep and determination. Other boys who have played their last game for Brook- line High are Peter Young, Parker Cooper, George Meuse, Barney May, John McGarry, Dick McLaughlin, Peter .Argus, Bob Mealey, Fred Carreiro, Charlie Sooy, Hal Silverman, Izzy Baker, Tom Hunter, and Jim Love. This might seem like a lengthy list, but Coach Harry Downes also has some underclassmen doing outstanding work for him on the gridiron this past autumn. Among these were George Keith, triple-threat back, who is de- finite all-scholastic material, Jim Noonan, Joe Gulley, an- other potential all-scholastic, John Nason, Irv Gould, Jim Hewitt, John Cox, and Joe Mahoney. These boys all did notable work, but there are others who deserve praise for the success of this year’s eleven. Foremost is Coach Harry Downes, who entered Brookline High School the same year as the class of 1942, and in the short space of four years has made Brookline one of the respected teams in this section. His work does not stop there, however, for he also organized the Touchdown Club. This club is for all boys who go out for football — fresh- man, junior varsity, and varsity. Each month the mem- bers are treated to speeches by outstanding sports cele- brities and by movies of prominent games. Under the new tutelage of former hockey star Mr. Tom Hartigan, the Brookline High hockey team has continued to improve its playing. This has been Coach Hartigan’s first season with the squad and he has certainly gotten off to a brilliant start. The three players who did most towards sparking Brookline’s offensive were Frank O ' Hare, Tom Kirby, and Bob Ryan, who scored the most points for the team. Mainstay for the defensive was Captain Dick McLaugh- lin, with John Daley as chief goalie. Not to be forgotten are the other lettermen on the team : Jack Craven, Joe Gully, Charles Edgar, Walter Murphy, and John Phillips. The manager this year was Dan Rothenberg. The season opened with a disappointing loss to Walt- ham, 1-3, and the Red and Blue team stayed on the smaller end of the score for the next two games. Follow- ing these disheartening contests, however, was a series in which our team won 4 out of 5 games — a good percentage. Thus ended a season which we hope marks the commence- ment of a succession of better and better teams.

Made up for the most part of members from the preceding years. Captain Stan Muir, last year ' s consistent point-getter in the 100-yd. breastroke, won his event all but once. Other outstanding swimmers were Walter Bullard. Don Bernstein and Tommy Hunter. The season of 1941-1942 saw the red and blue mermen facing such stiff competition as the freshmen of Harvard and Brown. M.I.T., Worcester Academy and Huntington School. In face of such odds, the Couttsmen only scored one victory over Huntington but came very close to de- feating the Brown Bears, only beaten by a disqualifica- tion in the final deciding relay. In the big meet of the year, the interscholastic championships. Brookline pulled the unusual stunt of gaining two state champions, Walter Bullard in the 200-yd. freestyle and Captain Stan Muir in the 100-yd. breastroke. The managers this year were Lauri Shutzer and Yin Willour. while Mr. Coutts also coached the divers. De- spite the fact that some point-getters will be graduated this year, Coach Coutts has high hopes for next year. Each year, Coach Gilbert MacDonald builds up his basketball team .to win the Suburban League Champion- ship and to win a place in the Tech Tournament, the major event of the year. This season the red and blue hoopmen narrowly missed winning first place in the Su- burban League. They entered the Tech Tournament, only to lose in the first round. The five men who formed the mainstay of the team are Joe Mahoney, Babe Argus, Pete Young, Charles Mooney, and Johnny Flessas. The second team was made up of Julie Cohen, Mark Raverby, Billy Connolly, Johnny Pignato, and Charlie Suey. Also aiding the cause of the team was manager Henry Rivitz. The quintet started off with an overwhelming victory over Dedham, and continued through the season with the superb record of 15 wins and 2 defeats, both suffered at the hands of Rindge Tech, state champions for the last two years. Co-captain Charlie Mooney and Peter Young, and Joe Mahoney earned the majority of the teams points. The big game of the year came when Brookline faced Xew Bedford at the Tech Tournament in Tufts’ Cousen ' s Gym. Medford. After a hard-fought battle, Brookline found itself at the lower end of a 36-39 score. Since all ten of this year’s team are graduating in June. Coach MacDonald will start next year with the difficult task of building an entirely new outfit to fight for the red and blue. This year, large squads reported for both indoor and outdoor track. Most of these boys are sophomores and juniors: and, consequently, Coach Bates has good pros- pects for spring track and for next year. Bates started coaching track for the first time at B.H.S. last spring, except for previous experience with freshman track. Formerly, he coached Hockey, but is now doing an excellent job in his new position. This year the schedule has been expanded, and the Brookline squads have been facing tougher competition. A new addition, introduced last fall, was the cross-country run which saw its members participating in two meets : the State Meet at B.L Field, and the Xew England Championships at Xew Hampshire University. Top performer was Captain Fred Carreiro who went through the season undefeated and set new gym records at every gym except Brookline. He won his event, the high jump, in the State Meet, thus becoming State Champ. Another consistent winner was Charles Johnson, high pt. scorer in the dash and 300-yd. events. He placed 3rd in the dash at the State Meet. Other consistent pt. winners were: Floyd Devron, Wes Baker, A1 Barkin, Don Suther- land, Tom Hunter, and Paul Sperling. Besides those on its regular schedule, the team partici- pated in the Open A.A.U. Meet at Malden, the Xorth- eastern Interscholastic Meet and the State Meet.

JH r — l j7 I V m While most Brookline teams have, during the season, suffered bad luck of some sort, the golf team at least got in soon enough to avoid the coming shortage of balls. The war. however, has definitely affected the status of the team as two of their stars. Billy Smith and John McGarry, are available only part of the time on account of defense work. Mr. MacDonald ' s men started the season on the wrong end of scores with Belmont and Waltham. The boys, however, grimly set their jaws, tightened their grips or their drivers, set their tees a little deeper, and played on. A feature of their play this year has been their hand- some appearance as they tee off. Led by the one and only Coach Gilbert MacDonald, the rest of the good looking troup are. in order of their appearance, Frank O ' Hare, Joe Rafftery, William Murphy, Dennis O ' Leary, Bob May. Chris Hackett, and the aforementioned Smith and McGarry. Mr. MacDonald will probably end the season with his now familiar quotation, It was beautiful but dumrn!” This year saw the playing of the 10th annual fall tennis tournament. The purpose of this tournament is to select the team members for the following spring. It was won this year by Jack Craven over runner-up Fred Holton. The varsity squad was made up of 8 members. Key man in first position was Mickey Sharaf the “sophomore sensation ; the 2nd post was held by Captain Fred Hol- ton ; third, by Harry Goldstein ; fourth, by another “sophomore sensation”, one Murray Levin; and fifth, by Jack Craven, last year’s captain. Coach Barnes was pleased with the fact that 3 men with playing experience showed up for practice this year, and holds a high opinion of the possibilities of the team. Next year, he hopes to build the team around his star sophomores, Mickey Sharaf and Murray Levin. To be said about this year’s team is simply that it looks very good — for next year, even though manager Norrnie Fink will then be absent. The team ' s main contribution to the war effort will however come when their best tennis net will go to the Xavy for use against submarines. America ' s national game was played hard but rather unsuccessfully this season by our Fitzgerald’s boys. Start- ing off with a close victory over Watertown, the team’s later efforts proved less fruitful. Captained by Jimmie Love, and sparked by the hard- working first-baseman Hal (Slep) Silverman, bad luck in the form of heartbreaking errors, hits that become outs in the seemingly masterful hands of the opponents, and pitching that at times was not what it could be, proved too much for Brookline’s ballplayers. The season was featured by the continual fight between boys to achieve regular berths. With several positions remaining open during the season, inter-squad competi- tion was high. During the campaign, five boys strove for success on the mound: Billy Winn, Frankie Mills, Milton Lewis, Frank Friego, and Charlie Kdgar, whose later ab- sence proved a bitter blow to the staff, all tried their hand at pitching. The infield generally consisted of Hal Silver- man, Lynn, Conroy, and Marty Copper on the hot corner ; while the outfield usually included Captain Love, George Keith and Johnnie Nason. Although materially the team’s record is not impressive, the success of the squad may better be measured in the healthy stride and enthusiastic way in which Coach Fitzgerald’s went to practice.

It is made up of the president and a special representa- tive from each house, the captain of the marshals and five teachers elected by the faculty. This is truly a group speaking for the school at large. The council ' s duties is to regulate many of the school activities. It approves house elections, surveys club func- tions, and takes up many other matters concerned with our welfare. As teacher and student alike have one vote, matters can be taken up with the assurance that each faction has the opportunity to express opinions and suggestions on an equal footing with the other. Because of the exemplary spirit and praiseworthy feeling of cooperation which exists within the group, the Council in this school can truly be called a democratic organization.

Adv. Wesley Baker Majorie Krensky Richard McLaughlin Janice Shoenberg William Troy The Court of Justice is above all what the name im- plies: an institution which ascertains that the laws of the school are levied and executed in a manner that is fairest to the student body and that serves to promote law and order within the school. Composed of the president and an elected marshal from each house, the captain of the marshals, and a Chief Jus- tice, the Court passes judgment on cases involving stu- dent violation of rules laid down by the School Council. Following the procedure of a regular court, each de- fendant is allowed to vindicate his rights. After listening to his defense, the Court deliberates and finally passes judgment, prescribing suitable punishment where neces- sary. Thus, judged by a jury of his peers, the student being tried has the assurance that, whatever the source of action taken, he will be treated fairly and understanding!} ' . Alpha Pi, B.H.S. Honorary Society, has served as an incentive to ambitious students for over a quarter of a century. This year saw the banner number of 50 Juniors and Seniors enrolled in the organization. The President, the member with the highest number of points to his credit, was versatile Robert Langer. The runner-up, of a point behind, was Fred Holton, who capably handled the records as Secretary-Treasurer. The whole group was under the able leadership of Miss Jane Perkins, the fa- culty advisor. As to activities, the Society meets twice a year to con- sider the admission of new members and to take up per- tinent business. In October and April, worthy candidates are inducted into Alpha Pi at an auditorium program, with the Headmaster presenting the coveted pins and charms. Let ' s hope that many B.H.S. students in the future will follow the Greek words Alpha, signifying leadership, and Pi, meaning excellence, to membership in this exclusive organization.

The more than 100 cohorts of Mr. Bates, fa- culty adviser, are most noted for their excellent work in directing traffic in the corridors and in attempting to keep the lunchroom as neat as a pin. Their duties by no means stop here as they are called upon to act as ushers at the annual Thanksgiving Day pigskin struggle and at school functions such as Parents’ Night, Prize Speaking, and Graduation. The exclusive wearers of the red and blue armband have further proven their worth by aiding in the rationing program.

In line with President Roosevelt ' s policy, the members of this organization, by indirectly observing Mexico and the other Latin-Ameri- can countries have learned much, in an enjoyable way, about the customs and manners of Spanish speaking peo- ples. The Club also puts forward a “good club policy.’’ At its regular meetings, held in Spanish, special entertain- ment by speakers and plays are sometimes presented. The members ' favorite activity, however, is hearing about the experiences of those who have traveled in Spain or in South America. Miss Wood and Miss Placido spare no end of time rounding up those who have made these trips. This year, as has been the custom in the past, the Club went to the hot dog picnic at Cedar Hill for an annual outing.

Speak German ! This is the unwrit- ten law obeyed as fully as possible by members of the German Club at their meetings. Founded primarily to enable students to study more closely the language, history, and pre-war culture of the German race, it ' s aims have been carried out this year with much success. Each of the five meetings was carefully planned by the Entertainment Committee which provided either movies or speeches to fill the program. At these gatherings, also, members of the Club, who had traveled in countries speak- ing German were able to give interesting accounts of their experiences. A comparatively elaborate Christmas party was one of the memorable events of the season. As an outstanding conclusion to their activities the en- tire group made a visit in the late spring to a place of significance out of town. It has always been the ambition of French teachers to enable their pupils to have a knowledge of conversational as well as rhetorical French. It was for this reason, name- ly, to offer pupils an opportunity to speak the language among themselves, that the “Cercle Francais” was founded. The meetings, which are held approximately once a month, are conducted almost entirely in French. French songs are sung, French stories are told, and teachers of the department relate tales about their unforgettable travels in France. One of the high spots of the club year was a lecture presented by M. Peyre of Yale. To this particularly inter- esting meeting were invited all the members of the French Department. At another memorable meeting, a French singer sang folksongs of her country. Membership in this organization is open to freshmen receiving an A at midyears, sophomores and juniors re- ceiving marks no lower than B, and Seniors who are pass- ing.

Much credit must go to the entertaining and en- lightening program it provides for its members. This year’s program topped all others. The most outstanding meeting was that at which Mrs. Arnold of the Bronte Society lectured to the Club on the lives of the Bronte sisters. Running a close second in interest was the poetry meeting which gave the members an opportunity to hear Robert Frost and Robert Coffin read some of their own poetry, and Lynne Fontanne read “The White Cliffs of Dover”. It was at this meeting that the winners of the poetry and prose contests were announced. Miss Lewis ' s Literary Circle discussions, a joint meeting with the Eng- lish Club of Newton High, and a trip to Wayside Inn rounded out the Club’s activities. 126 SPANISH E R M A N CLUB o - - T vtf FRENCH C L U B CLUB x 127 SCHOOL ww | .ri ' - f |.B COUNCIL COURT OF J U S TICE ALPHA PI M A R S H A L FORCE 128 SPANISH C L U B F R E N C H CLUB ENGLISH CLUB GERMAN CLUB As Alpha Pi is the honorary society recognizing excel- lence in scholarship and participation in activities, so the Orpheus Ensemble is the honorary society for musically talented pupils. The outstanding members of the regular school orchestra are chosen by the faculty advisor to play their instruments as members of this select body. The Orpheus Ensemble ' s time has been well occupied this year, playing at auditoriums and at other meetings, it has given much pleasure to its listeners. The largest audiences for which it played attended the concerts at the Brook- line Music School. The members of the Orpheus Ensemble prove their de- sire to advance their musical ability by the eagerness and energy with which they practice and perform. Untiring efforts and close cooperation have made this organization increasingly popular.

In school, besides playing at auditorium programs, this group is also on hand at many special occasions, among which are Prize Speaking Night and Dramatic Society presentations. Radio broadcasts, too, are on the orches- tra ' s schedule. Each spring, the group holds its own as- sembly programs for the pleasure of all the houses. During the year, this musical organization plays for several functions outside of the school. The Rotary Con- vention is one of these and one of the highlights of the year. The cooperation and willingness of the Orchestra’s members continue to help it follow its high ideals. This year our high school band emerged at one of the first football games in the new uniforms that had been sought for so many years, and obtained only last Spring as a result of the successful performances of Kaarina. Along with the change of dress came both better cooper- ation and display of ability. This was readily noticed by all those who heard the band either at school affairs or elsewhere. They played at our football games, at rallies and pep meetings, and did much to instill school spirit in the student body. Besides these appearances, this mu- sical organization supplied supplementary music at many assemblies and once filled an auditorium period with a program of its own. Outside of school, the band repre- sented us at many functions, notable among these being the Patriot ' s Day and Memorial Day Parades.

This club aims to give those students who enjoy singing a chance to meet regularly and to increase their appreciation of music and knowledge of the best choral literature. Membership in the Choral Society requires a good na- tural voice, the ability to carry a tune, and a sincere inter- est in music. The club is composed of about 60 male and female singers. The ambition of the group is not to attain a large membership, but rather to become a singing group of high quality. The stray notes of music escaping from the Music Room, any Monday afternoon indicate quite clearly that the singers are on the way to attaining their goal. 1.50 O R P H E U S ENSEM BLE ORCHES T R A B A N D 131 A most talented and promising body of students were this year ' s competitors for the J. Murray Kay Prize Speaking award. Anticipated eagerly by the entire school, pupils and teachers alike, this contest was held on Friday evening. April 10th. It brought to the attention of all the dramatic ability of several freshmen and sophomores, be- sides confirming what was already known about the abil- ity of the junior and senior participants. In spite of the fact that they had college entrance exam- inations the next morning, two seniors climaxed their four years of active participation in High School dramatics by receiving the top honors of the evening. Mrs. Burke, under whose expert coaching the contes- tants rehearsed, has it to her credit that, although she has not been with us very long, she has assembled a group of superior young public speakers.

In order to develop these qualities the younger debaters gain experience and ability through intermural debates. They are then eligible to match their skill with that of students of other schools in inter-scho- lastic debates. During this year, two debates with Arlington High School yielded a victory for each side. In a hard fought battle with Browne and Nichols, our forensic fighters were just nosed out. There was also a debate without a decision with our old enemy, Newton High. The subjects discussed this year were concerned with national labor unions, an independent American air force, and an Anglo- American Union. Audiences at plays and similar affairs often fail to realize to what extent the success or failure of the perform- ance is due to the workers “back stage.” The Stage and Executive Staff of Brookline High School busies itself unobtrusively with vital tasks throughout the year. It is the work of some of its members to prepare correct lighting, by focusing, blending of colors, and ar- rangement of the individual bulbs and spotlights. The Staff is present at each assembly to prepare the platform for the speaker, players, or musicians. It is greatly to its credit that our auditorium periods are always technically smooth and correct. At the Dramatic Society ' s feature presentation. Grow- ing Pains, the Stage and Executive Staff worked untir- ingly. The scenery and lighting effects for this play were combined to complement the actions of the players. Prize Speaking and Parents’ Night were two other occasions during which the various branches of this ever- active body functioned.

Having decided early in the year that in these times they could best serve the school and the community by providing relaxation and amusement, the members chose a comedy of adolescence, Growing Pains as their first pro- duction. A complete sell-out that left “standing-room” only proved the wisdom of their decision. Credit for this dramatic and financial success goes to the talented cast headed by S. Lesburg, R. Wyner, S. Gruber, E. Penn, and M. Shocket, the hard-working stage and business staffs, and most especially to Mrs. Burke, who does so excellent a job of coaching, and to Mr. Smith who directs the finan- cial affairs of the Society. Although Miss Hannon was unable to participate actively in the Society’s program this year, her encouragement and advice offered invaluable support to all its efforts. 132 1 R 1 Z 1 l DEBATING TO C I E ' T Y I ,4 iwj . s(r v i l S ' .iT 11 4 iL STAGE AND EXECUTIVE S T A F F y v c DRAMATIC SOCIE T V B A N D D R U M MAJORETTES 114 P R I Z E SPEAKING STAGE AND ELECTRIC A L S T A F F DRAMATIC SOCIET Y 135 ll The Choral Reading Group was originated three years ago. because the faculty and students felt the need of an organization which would train pupils for mass and inter- pretive reading. It aims to make a special analysis of poetry and drama and attain a higher appreciation of au- thors and their writings through study and rendition of pieces suitable for a chorus. It is customary for this group to present an annual program in the auditorium. This year. The Murder in the Cathedral” was an- nounced as their production, for which, judged from all appearances, success is certain when the whole play is given next fall. The preview given this spring was a very impressive presentation of the first act which certainly showed the student body how effective choral speaking is. The group should be congratulated for their excellent work. “MURDER IX THE CATHEDRAL Alan Schein Robert Albert Herbert Goulston Eugene Rubin Adolphe Cavallo Faculty Adviser Sidney Michaels Julian Rothenblatt David Israel Michael Rothenberg Mr. Flemings STAFF Edit or-in-C hie j News Editor Make-up Editor Feature Editor Sports Editor Rewrite Editors Staff Artist Advertising Manager Assista?its Faculty Advisers Virginia Berman Claire Adelson Barbara Alpern Elaine Smithers Donald Bassist Isabel Sharenson Bert Rabinowitz Elaine Rosenbaum John Chmielinski Leon Katzeff Rosemarie Farkas Norman Fink Mr. Friedland Mr. Ehnes Mr. Newsom Mr. Wall Do you want to know “what’s cookin’ ” at Brookline High?

This year’s new stream-lined paper offers, be- sides its sport and current event articles, a feature section containing “Who’s-Who’s”, poems, stories, and humor columns. An important innovation, this year, is the scho- lastic rotogravure section which appears once a month. The Sagamore provides students interested in journalism, creative writing, advertising, and salesmanship a fine opportunity to gain practical experience in these fields. To its editorial, advertising and circulation staffs, and the tireless faculty advisers goes credit for its production and distribution.

Although it is one of the newer organizations of the school, the Radio Club, popularly known as the Mercur- eans, has already received recognition outside of Brook- line High.

Mariner Ship Westward Ho!” realized the coming emergency a year ago. all members of the crew took the American Red Cross First Aid course with Mrs. Cleary. As a result the Mariners were stationed on duty at First Aid posts in the school during all Air Raid drills since December 7 because they were found to be the only trained group available. Following that time all new members have secured their certificates and are ready for duty. In addition to this, the presentation of the new National Flag for the auditorium completed our program of service to the school for the year. The Ship ' s members have also found time for sailing at the Community Boathouse on the Charles River Basin, where they hope soon to become efficient in handling small boats. One overnight trip to Duxbury last fall, so planned to include the Quincy footfall game, stands out as a pleas- ant memory of frolic.

I t offers the boys a variety of activities, including baseball, bowling, table tennis, and bicycling. A program of indoor activities is executed each year, also the club meetings fill out most of the program. At these gatherings the boys are offered entertainment in the form of movies, quiz shows, or home- talent hours and also conduct the business of the Club. This year, the group has added still another activity to its list — the Stamp Club. Formerly an independent group, it was recently incorporated into the larger organ- ization and is now the most active group. The year closed with the usual eighth-grade party, at which future B.H.S. students were introduced to the Club and shown around the school buildings. The Brookline High Girl Scout Troop, in accordance with the trend of war activity, augmented its usual pro- gram of nature study, science, and handicrafts this year by becoming active in Red Cross Work, such as serving and knitting for soldiers. Fortunately, the group has had previous practice in First Aid, which is one way to “Be Prepared.” In the Girl Scout movement, the aim has always been to train good leaders and citizens. This purpose has taken on a new significance on the “home front” of our country. The successful achievement of the troop under the leader- ship, of Miss Nichols and Miss Bruce should be compli- mented.

No other organization is of more service to the school and the community. Besides helping freshmen girls to become adjusted to high school, and offering entertainment to students of all houses, the League constantly crusades to improve con- ditions at Brookline High. Nor does it fall behind in lending aid to the town and the nation. This year, as always, the Girls’ League played host to some of the needy youngsters of the community at Thanksgiving, and made and repaired toys and stuffed bags with candy at Christmas. In addition, it started an active defense program, offering instruction in first aid, canteen work, and the care of children during times of emergency. On the lighter side were the square dancing and community singing, sponsored by the League, and the annual supper party at which the new officers were announced. 138 139 SAGAMORE LIBRARY S T A F F MERCUREANS 140 GIRLS’ 141 OFFICERS Always on the alert to shoot ' action pictures, still lives, and other subjects of interest, the members of the Camera Club have succeeded in making their organization enjoyable. Its meetings, held twice a month, have been arranged in order to give those attending them helpful ideas as well as just plain fun. With the aid of lectures by photography experts and by members of the Art Depart- ment. and contests among the amateurs in the club, this has been accomplished. One of the most interesting functions of this society is the publishing of a bi-weekly newspaper, which reports the student features of past and future meetings, and a number of articles of interest to the readers. This year some of the Camera Club ' s thirty odd mem- bers climaxed their year ' s activity by submitting many fine prints to the state photography contest.

Thus, the Geology, Chemistry, Physics. Biology, and Astronomy Groups have held regular meetings, at which they have worked on projects, performed experiments, and discussed their particular problems. The Science Club, as a whole, has held somewhat fewer meetings than usual because of the difficulty encountered in trying to obtain outside speakers. Several talks, how- ever, were presented by members of the club, and general discussions were held throughout the year. Unfortunately, the Science Club this winter lost one of its advisers, Mr. Cooper, who had guided the organiza- tion through many successful seasons. In spite of numerous handicaps, the Science Club has still managed to function as a thriving, useful organiza- tion. The Junior Red Cross is one organization to which every pupil in the school can and should belong. This year, it has been particularly important for the American Red Cross to live up to its idea of being at hand where it is needed. It is, therefore, all the more gratifying to know that our own small group has done its utmost to help. To start the ball rolling, a very successful drive was conducted at the beginning of the school year. One hun- dred and thirty-five dollars were collected. Because of the war needs, a second drive w r as sponsored for one day during MacArthur week in February. Despite the short notice given for this, the school again proved eager to par- ticipate and contributed fifty-two dollars. W e are always well represented at the monthly meetings held at the Boston headquarters.

Listen to the office reports. “The doughnut w ' as not designed to save dough. The facilities of the school bank were designed to help you save money. Be a depositor tomorrow ' !” An appeal like this is representative of the all-out effort that the Bank Staff has made this year to encourage and stimulate banking among the pupils of Brookline High School. Competently advised by Mr. Blanchard, the staff is run by the student faculty assistants, the bank messengers, and the individual homeroom tellers. Banking is a civic duty and acts with economic educa- tion as training for future life. Another type of training is the instilling of patriotism, especially important now ' that we are in total war ; and so the Bank Staff show ' ed its colors by selling defense stamps. As an aid to the Muriv- ian they also collect subscription money. Speed, efficiency, and accuracy seems to be the motto of the day and the bank staff has done its part in living up to this idea. 142 C A M E R A C L U B SCIENCE C L U B RED CROSS BANKING 1 4 ' .1 OFFICERS Cooking is not at all a field restricted to women, as the members of the Boys ' Foods Club well know. In times of war. especially, it is essential that everyone, man and woman, should know the basic facts of good nutrition. The boys of this club are, therefore, gaining valuable information, as well as finding enjoyment at the regular meetings. Interesting programs are always planned. In the fall and spring, picnics are held, the food being cooked out of doors. At Halloween time, the boys make their own doughnuts : at Christmas, they have candy pulls : and during the rest of the year, they frequently join the girls in visits to candy and ice cream factories.

Anyhow, those are some of the materials with which the girls work in making their de- licious candies, cakes, and cookies — or did before they were rationed. Neither priorities nor rationing bothers the Foods Club, however, for the girls go right ahead learning how to make nutritious and tasty foods with the materials on hand. Their fun increases at every meeting. Appropriate dishes are made on Halloween, Christmas, and other holi- days. A spring picnic and visits to factories complete their busy schedule. For those who want to develop keen powers of observa- tion, logical thinking, skill in strategy, and who still like the spirit of competition, the Chess Club, under the able directorship of Miss Allen, is the logical organization for them to join. At its weekly meetings members play among themselves for recreation. Another purpose of their games is to pre- pare for matches with other members of the Greater Bos- ton Interscholastic Chess League. This year, our first team placed second in its division, while our second team was at the top of its group. It is noteworthy that Lionel Perlo was President of the League this year, in which capacity Alan Goldberg will succeed him next year. At the big event of the year, the annual league dinner, of the four students who played simultaneous matches with a chess champion, Alan Goldberg put up the longest fight against him.

Five minutes before the fourth period begins, the stu- dent-staff files into the neat and modern lunchroom. Soon afterwards, the “come and get it” bell rings, and the hun- ger-mad Brookline High gourmands dash up to the op- posite side of the cafeteria to function at the various counters, while the student-customers are kept “in hand” with the aid of Mr. Bates and his marshal force.

U.S.C.S.C., Senator Thomas of Utah, and Archduke Otto, pretender to the Austrian throne, were after-dinner speakers. The climax of the Institute ' s trip was a reception tendered them by Mrs. Roosevelt, at the White House.

Burbank, Faculty Adviser The Girls’ Vocal Ensemble this year again claimed to have as its members the owners of the best voices in B.H.S. It consisted of about 20 girls selected from the choral society and met once a week. When “business was as usual”, the group enjoyed singing extracts from oper- ettas and other more advanced songs. But much of the time during the fall was taken up by practicing for the program of the Christmas Assembly, where the ensemble was rewarded for its toil by the ample applause of the student audience. In Spring the weekly hour was occupied with rehearsing for the radio broadcast in May. Thus, the Girl’s Vocal Ensemble has again lived up to its reputa- tion of being one of the most active and hard-working organizations of the school. Every Tuesday afternoon one of the most talented groups in Brookline High, the Poster Club, gathers in the art room. The 15 active members of this group are all earnest art enthusiasts who waste as little time as possible on business details and quickly turn their attention to the various activities which suit their separate fancies. Some paint posters, some work with block prints, others sketch future posters, and all enter the various contests. The silk screen prints used to advertise “Growing Pains were produced by club members, as are the anti- rumor campaign signs sponsored by Akers House. Much of the club ' s best work comes from the contests it spon- sors, with awards for originality, imagination and tech- nique. Thanks to the generous support of the 5 houses, the club is able to do work for them without charge.

The result was the Pep Club. Representatives from each homeroom were chosen by the cheer leaders, but, next year, they hope that a more democratic method, such as a direct election by the students, will be employed. The club was started about half-way through the sea- son, so the “pepper-uppers had to work fast. The first thing accomplished was the selection of a chairman, Alan Larson, who has shown great ability as a rally leader. Pep talks were given in the homerooms — some of these ought to be framed. Then a Red and Blue Day was staged in order to stimulate the sale of season tickets. The lunch- room was decorated in these colors with a cartoon for its special attraction, and students wore touches of red and blue. Ninety-six people were inspired to buy tickets. Next, a rally was arranged for the practice of new songs and cheers. The two rallies before the Newton game proved to be the most successful, particularly the one on Dean Road with the snake line down the street after- wards. Perhaps the greatest success of the Pep Club was the Sports Dance put on in conjunction with the Touch- down Club, January 23. 148 STUDENTS’ INSTITUTE OF NATIONAL GOVERNMENT GIRLS’ VOCAL ENSEMBLE POSTER CLl T B PEP CLUB M7 Tv! —4 ' f ll ij|l(|:U jiB 4ZuM 1 PROVIDENCE UL POWSSOUTH ROUTE 9 BROOKLINE W NFWTO ' 4 WATERTOWN 6 CAMBRIDGE iO NEWTON UP FALLS 3 BROOKLINE 9 BOSTON 11 WALTHAM 6 .itsmr SUMNER BOSTON KtNWOftC SQ CAMBRIDGE POINTS NORTH BROOKLINE FRAMINGHAM WORCESTER - INDEX TO ADVERTISERS PAGE Antell, Joseph 161 Bancroft Cleansers 158 Beacon Barber Shop . 162 Boehner the Printer 1 58 Boylston Pharmacy 161 Boston Linotype Print 158 Bradley, R.
