It would be a natural aftermath of de- pression, yet one September morning in 193-1, a group of representatives of Canton set forth with a four-year plan in mind to prove the contrary. We occupied Rooms and 4 as our headquarters and elected as our first year leaders, Paul Whitty, President, Robert Caddigan, Vice-president, Thomas Ronayne, Treasurer, and Elizabeth Tumas, Secretary. We had the opportunity on Septem- ber 17, to hear Mischa Tulin lecture and play on a new musical instru- ment, called the theramin. Our first social appearance was at the A. A. Banquet in December. As sole rep- resentative of the freshman class, Leland Hiltz, proved his vocal ability in the operetta, In Old Vienna, which was presented in March, 1935. When the tide of the first year had passed, we found ourselves back at school, the following September, wil- ling and able to take up where we had left off. Registering the elections a second time we found that we had as Presi- dent, Ralph Bakerg Vice-president. Robert Caddigang Treasurer, Elmer Danag and Secretary, James Danahy. ln April, 1936, the musical comedy, Crocodile Island, was presented by the Glee Clubs with the following sophomores being given featured parts: Leland Hiltz, Nelson Hunts- man, Alice Martin, Elmer Dana, and Albert D'Attanasio. September, 19336-and we returned once more, this time as juniors. Re- alizing by now that leaders are nec- essary in any organization, we elect- ed Elizabeth Tumas, Presidentg Cor- inne llallett, Vice-president, Ernie Patriarca, Treasurer, and Stephanie Davis, Secretary. Our ever willing girls with the co- operation of the rest of the class, held a food sale in February to swell the One of the most suc- class treasury. cessful dances ever held by the high school was the Junior Hop, sponsored by the Junior Class, in April, 1937. Next on June 3, came our formal presentation, the Junior Prom. The hard work of the many committees was appreciated when the success of our prom was obvious. The hall was decorated so as to give the atmos- phere of a huge grapevine. And, in- cidentially, if you had never seen rainbow-hued grapes before, you had that unique opportunity on June 3. So ended another year. Fewer in number but greater in spirit, we returned again in Septem- ber, 1937, to complete a final fourth year. Elected this time were James Danahy, President: Robert Caddigan, Vice-president: Corinne Hallett, Treasurer: and Isabel Caponio, Sec- retary. Our Student Council rep- resentatives for this year were, Thomas Ronayne, Emily Fraccalire, Albert D'Attanasio, and Stephanie Davis. The class athletes received their awards in the form of sweaters and letters at the A. A. Banquet held in January. Included in our program for raising funds were a senior dance and a theatre benefit. Our senior play, Double Wedding, was presented in March before an enthusiastic and appreciative audience. Next came a most unforgetable occasion, our class trip. Wonder is the great appeal of New York. It brings hundreds of thousands of trav- elers from the world over. And we had the opportunity to be among them during the latter part of May. To balance the traditional subjects of school, we had extra-curriculum activities. Our glee club and choral periods along with our physical edu- cation, dancing, and dramatic periods, proves that it takes more than a pre- scribed course of study to gain a rich and full personality. Also in this, our history, we wish to record the names of three of our mem- bers who in the course of our school days have been called to graduate in- to a world reserved only for the Di- vine Honor Roll - Lillian Hanlon, Ralph Baker, Burr Copley. T H E ILLIC HgO n 19 The entire class wishes at this time to extend to Mrs. Dana, Mr. Anketell and all members of the faculty, our sincere thanks and wholehearted ap- preciation for all their help and ad- vice during our four years at Canton High School. It is said that the modern world looks meditatively upon each new crop of graduates, that the outlook for young people is not pleasant and com- paratively simple a thing as it once was. Yet We would not have it any other way. For we know that there is always room for the hard worker and the ambitious. May each and every member of the Class of 1938 find and make his own place in this world of a thousand differences. Stephanie Davis. ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION During the latter part of December, the Athletic Association of Canton High School held its annual election. The results were as follows: Presi- dent, E. Tumas, Vice-president, J. Thompson, Secretary, R. Cad- digang Treasurer, E. Patriarca. The topics discussed were the award for football lettermen and it was decided to continue with the plan previously used. The plan was that letters were awarded according to the number of periods that one partici- pated in a game. If a boy played in one quarter of the total number periods he was awarded his letter football. Sweaters were awarded to all senior boys who participated in seven periods. The Athletic Association was a pro- nounced success with football and basketball as the outstanding sports of the year. The annual athletic banquet was held at the Town Hall in January. Awards and presentations were made to Lyons, Mr. Donovan, and members of the different athletic teams. A more detailed account ol' the suc- cess of our athletic teams may be found under other sport features. of in Elizabeth Tumas. CLASS SONG We-'re drawing to an end, Those days of merriment, We'll live in memory among our high school days. Some papers or a book, A smile where e'er you look, We see the end of times that were so dear and gay. We've tried our very best To win this great success, We may achieve great fame An honor to remain, We'll wander far apart, And know not where you are, We find some happy thoughts among our high school days. The class of thirty-eight, Who did appreciate, Your guidance and your help through- out the many years. We leave you with sad hearts, And as the seniors pass, We wish to thank you for your interest on our part. And as the years go past, We'll try to make them last, The honors and ideals For which our class has strived, And as the end is here, We find our motto clear, Knowledge is power to aid in the onsetting hours.

H. S. broadcasting the latest and most interesting news flashes, sponsored by the Canton High School, Class of 1938. Your announc- er has been elected as the unfortunate one to compile the statistics, little re- alizing at the time, all the addition, subtraction, multiplication, and divis- ion that this large class of intelligent students would require. Settle back in your easy chairs and be prepared for the results of the most exciting election ever held. Fin- ally, after weeks of discussing, nom- inating and campaigning, we obtained the results. Jimmy Danahy, by going to bed every night at eight o'clock and get- ting up every morning at seven, gained his six feet two inches, while Louise Silva must have been keeping pretty late hours to attain only her fifty-nine inches. The total height of the class is 305 feet which is over one half of the height of the Washington Monument, while the average height is five feet, four inches. Wescott Shaw has been preparing his diet which helped him reach his 200 pounds to give to Edith Nason who is quite interested in how to in- crease her 105 pounds. Butch Lapenus might have given Edith this advice, only I think he must have lost that ten pounds in the Atlantic Ocean on the way to New York. Now the fish are getting fatter and are won- dering who that kind soul was. The total weight of the class is 7501 pounds and the average is 134 pounds. Lapenus has the honor of covering the most ground with his size 11 shoes and he says that he got them from covering the most ground at the Links On the other hand Freda Ulman and Marguerite Lynch can slip their Cinderella feet into size four and four and one-half. No wonder shoe stores are going out of business. Augie Decenibrile, who hands out advice to the girls, has been collecting it for nineteen whole years and now has the honor, in our class, of having lived for the longest time. Mary Pavidis has survived for sixteen whole years, ending up with a head full of knowledge. The total age of the class is 961 years, which is just 515 years before Christopher Colum- bus discovered us. The average age is 17 years. The vote for the most popular girl went to Emily Fraccalireg while Paul Whitty holds the title of being the most popular boy. The best looking people of our class are Joe Gecewicz, Nancy Grover and Jackie Broderick. All that noise you are hearing over the radio now isn't staticg it's just Emily Fraccalire pulling Ernie Pat- riarca's hair and Helen MacLeod and Didi Paul trying to separate them. These people have the honor of being the noisest members of our class. In contrast to the just-mentioned turmoil we see the quietest members, Wilder Kelle, Lysander Kemp and Ella Schmeider sitting in a secluded corner. Ella is also our most bash- itll and Raymond Goss our bashful oy. The perfect lady and gentleman of our class are Stephanie Davis and Wilder Kelle, who will be sent gold medals through the mail for their efforts. Our best truckers and Susie Q'ers are Emily Fraccalire, Tut D'Attan- iasio and Joe Gecewicz who go right to town when they hear Benny Good- man's Swing Club which is our favor- ite radio program. Our favorite movie stars are Clark Gable and Snow White. Dopey had a lot of votes, too. The delightful music you are now hearing is being played by Freda Ul- man, Josephine Sebeika, Wilder Kelle and Wescott Shaw who are our most musical members. No Lombardo isn't getting gagements as he used to. Our most all-round people are Nancy Grover, Helen MacLeod, Joe Gecewicz and Tommy Ronayne. When it's getting dark and creepy and everybody's gone to bed. we see three night owls with great big eyes prowling around by the names of Didi Paul, Augie Decembrile and Tommy Ronayne. In the meantime we see Freda Ulman and Wescott Shaw, the most studious pupils, stay- wonder Guy so many en- g.grggA-. . LTOOQF ing up late to do a little extra study- ing of the favorite subject of the class, English. As much as one half like Englishg the other half' dislike it, for it was also voted the most disliked subject. Our class flirt who is always mak- ing eyes at everybody is none other than Nancy Grover, with Marion Cook who is also our class baby com- ing right behind. Then we have a certain tall boy who is always trying to look just so, for a pretty girl who lives in our rival town. He spells his name D-A-N-A-H-Y. He holds the title of class sheik, and right after him follow Paul Whitty and Augie Decembrile. Next on our program are Dr. Emile X. Minninhof and Grandma of the Ozarks, our best actor and actress, Leonard Abramowitz and Lena Bar- baglia, followed by Mr. and Mrs. Col- bert or, in other words, Wescott Shaw and Edith Nason. When we came to voting for our favorite teachers we had quite a lot of competition but finally Miss Pease, Miss Leary and Mr. Donovan won the most votes. Our Romeo and Juliet are blushing, and they ought to be, because Jimmy Danahy and your statistician were voted the most romantic boy and girl. Paul Whitty wasn't very far behind. For four years two people have tried very hard to obtain the honor of being the most conceited boy and girl but no one got the sole honor because the votes were tied for Paul Whitty and yours truly, with Nancy Grover and Leland Hiltz coming in second. As for the best sport, Jimmy Champion Igo claims the title. Helen MacLeod, Joe Gecewicz and Jimmy Igo are certainly keeping in trim because to them is awarded the honor of' being the most athletic. Our heart-breakers who need but one glance to break your heart are our fair-headed young lad and lover of' the senior play, Elmer Dana, and sophisticated Emily Fraccalire with Paul Whitty and yours trulv having a close second vote. ECHO g g gzri Our most serious students are Lysander Kemp, Stephanie Davis, Freda Ulman and Wilder Kelle. It is said that b-l-u-f-f-e-r spells bluffer but that is not so, it spells Leland Hiltz and Bozo Kelleher, who both received a great number of votes in that field. Bea Maddocks has entered into competition with Delores Del Rio for being the best dressed girl and Nelson Huntsman has put Adolph Menjou to shame by being voted our best dressed boy. Elmer Dana, Leonard Abramo- witz and Corinne Hallett lost by only a few votes. We never know what Jimmy Igo and Midge Estey are going to do next for they were voted the most surpris- ing girl and boy. fAnd are they sur- prising? OH! BOY lb Our Joe Penner is Ernie Patriarca, and Parkyakarkus, Edward Paul, for they were voted as the class comedi- ans having done a great deal in keep- ing the class in laughter for four wholeyears. Emily Fraccalire, Mary Pavidis and Leonard Abramowitz have done their share in keeping the class in-high spirits with witty say- ings which have given them the titles as being the wittiest. Those cheerful people who are al- ways laughing and happy with noth- ing to worry them are Emily Frac- cahre, Elizabeth McGowan and Jim- my Igo. I wonder what it is that makes them so happy? Mansfield seems to be the answer for Emily. The title holders of being the cutest are Nancy Grover and Julia Ivoskus. Eliirley Temple will have her place a ten. We hope you understand that it is all infun, and that you have enjoyed knowing what the class thinks about you. This concludes the statistics of the Class ol 1938 until we meet again when we can vote on the most success- ful, most happily married and other such interesting data. Your announcer signing off' Elizabeth Turnas. 2.4 THE ECHO CLASS PROPHECY The runways of the Caddigan- Broderick Amalgamated Airways In- corporated glistened brilliantly in the afternoon sun, as Jackie, chief in- structor at the field, paced impatient- ly back and forth before the main hanger. For hours, Jackie's broad shoulders had been holding up both his own and Bob's end of their thriv- ing enterprise, and ,by this time his thoughts of his erring partner could not safely be quoted in a story of this kind. Muttering, Enough is enough, and a few other things, he wearily made his way to the control tower to check up on things, inwardly swear- ing vengeance on that invaluable assistant of his. On reaching the top, he found lights blinking, radio calls galore, and in the far corner beneath the glass roof lay Bob, slumbering peacefully. That was the last straw, so Jackie felt no qualms as he favored him with a slight tap on the Cranium with his monkey wrench. Now don't get excited, said Bob smoothing his unruly locks, I know you warned me about those poppy- seed rolls, and I know they always put me to sleep, but what's a fellow going to do when he's hungry '? And look don't say a word until you hear about the swell dream I had! lt all started when a call came to our otlice for a special plane to be put at the dis- posal of a Federal Agent who would call as soon as possible. You had a plane all warmed up when a Ford truck leaped off the Willow road and landed on the south runway. l wasn't surprised to see Tommy llonayne driving because he always had a passion for trucks. Ile in- formed me that he was now known as Agent XIBITO, 4X9 t-o mel, and that he was on the trail of Pretty Boy Paul, formerly known lJidi . It was rumored that Paul and his gang, which included such characters as Snake Eyes Macllermott and Slugger Goss, the brains f the out- fit, were hiding out in the Blue llills. These infamous gentlemen had not come to the attention of the authorities until they chased Nelson Huntsman and Joe White from their duties in the weather observatory atop the Great Blue Hill. Before re- treating to his new 'Summer Camp , Paul had emptied the safes of such places as Augie Decem.brile's Sky- light Club, and the famous roof garden on the Lithuanian Memorial Building owned by Joe Gecewicz, and supervised by Butch Lapenus. Paul also looted Albert D'Attanasio's Fashion Shoppe where Emily Fracca- lire and Lena Barbaglia modeled all the latest Parisian and New York Creations. Tommy and l, after giving instruc- tions to the local chief, Bub Witt, who had turned to this profession be- cause there had been an extra uniform that just fit him, left the airport in the plane which had the motor manu- factured by Wilbur Milligan and Carl Cooke. On the way to the Blue Hills we saw the new streamlined Rocket, on the N. Y., N. H. 8: H. R. R., flash past. I learned from T-ommy that this had been designed by Nancy Grover. She had told him that it had just come to her in a dream, land it looked it.D This train was driven by Massa Kessler and Jimmy Igo who seemed intent on proving that the shortest distant between two points is a straight track. The next thing i .',' c noticed was a girl gaping at Blue llill with a paint brush in one hand and a palette in the other. Circling low, we recognized an -old friend, Marguerite Lynch. We waved to her and then went on. The first knowledge we had of Paul's exact location was gained from the sight of a puff of smoke followed by a hole in our right wing, which must have been made by a cannon, at the least. Bub Witt, and his force, which included sharp-sh-ooters such as Lysander Kemp, Westcott Shaw, and Theron Briggs, closed in on them. These men had given up their pro- fessions as doctors and business men to uphold the law. fShaw also liked a uniformj Li,,,,.? L. LL ,TH E c E C H O g gvg25 Everything was set to make the capture, but we all agreed to take the gang alive and to give them a fair chance, which we did by waiting until their ammunition was exhausted. Paul and his 'tStoogies were brought before the noted woman judge, Elizabeth Tumas, who had fol- lowed a business law course. The prosecuting attorney turned out to be Leland Hiltz who sa.ng the Mad Scene - from Filene's Basement be- fore opening the case. The legal UD representative for the defendant was also one of our old classmates, none other than Paul Whitty. On the jury we found Stephanie Davis, secretary to Jim Danahy, the Golf Ball King, and Julia Ivoskus, the acrobatic dancing star at Red Dana's 'tNew Strand , where the cash prize was regularly drawn by Bozol' Kelle- her, bouncer, usher, and manager of the show. After all the facts were given, the jury was ushered out by the bailiff Kenneth Bowers. I noticed he had no badge and when I asked him about it, he confidentially told me that he had received two bits for it at Len Abramowitz's pawn shop. When the jury came back with a verdict of not guilty, most of the spectators fainted, many were badly bruised in the rush, but nurses, Marion Cook and Alice Graham, were on hand to ease their pain. . The reason for this verdict was later revealed by the fact that Baby Face Patriarca had gone in to see the jury for a little informal chat. He was a well known rival of Paul's and wanted the privilege of taking care of him, personally. Just for old times sake, he said. Isabel Caponio and Mary Pavidis took down all this information as re- porters for Ye Canton Journalu. Edward V. J. Paul, as he now wished to be called, decided to have a party and to invite all his old class- mates to celebrate his release from jail. At the party were Beatrice Maddocks, a wealthy lady of leisure, Alice Martin of the Martin llill Billy Band, Elizabeth MacCowan, the well known English authority, and many other old chums. Edith Nason demonstrated a couple of her new dance creations and did a roller skate act which was very enjoyable. I After the party we went to the Swanky night club owned by Edna Duncan and Midgie Estey who hail worked up from their enviablel po- sitions as the nation's leading lady bouncers to the owners of the ex- clusive club. We were driven there by Howard Gibson in his Independent Cab. ' Outside the club was Ella Schmieder conducting the Side Walk Interview Program for the C. H. S. network. In the club a few celebrities were asked to take a bow in the spot light oper- ated by Myles Standish, and were we surprised to see Mildred Seaman and Winnie Stone proclaimed as the world's best physical instructors! Freda Ulman and Josephine Sebeika were coaxed into a duet on their vio- lins and rendered Love in Bloom very well. Edith Stone appeared and surprised us all with her dancing and singing. She later sa.id she was more surprised than we were. The orch-es- tra was Wilder Kelle's Wild Cats, featuring the blues singer, Louise Silva, whose manager and all round aid was Helen Tolias, another old friend. About 3:30 A. M. Corinne Hallett, the hostess, informed us that we would have to leave an order for our breakfast. Well that's the end of my story. How was it, Jack? You haven't any more poppy seeds have you '? I had better not tell any of our friends about that dream, huh? By the way, what is Didi doing now '? I understand he's over at the library writing a book on the new language, Shilamalokus, I think he called it. Come on, we'll go over and see him. Let's get some candy at the Silva Slipper Shoppe for the librarians, Midge Estey and Edna Duncan. Why, there's Eddie Macllermott in his taxi. Remember now, don't mention Snake Eyes to him. Take it easy now, Mac , we're in no hurry. Look Jack, isn't that Ray Goss in the town hall window '? That's right, he's the superintendent ol' all the public buildings now, he started with his uncle's job. Well, here we are at the library.

The story of this comedy con- cerns the domineering Augusta Col- bert, who throws false hearts attacks to force her husband and children to coincide with her wishes. Had not her husband Georges mother arrived on the scene, Gussie would have had her children married to Folks they don't love, as Grandma put it.

STUDENT COUNCIL Last year the student council con- sisted of five members from each class. This year it was felt that this body was too unwieldy and that up- perclassinen should have more in- fluence than their less experienced colleagues. For these reasons the council was reorganized and now con- tains four seniors, three juniors, two sophomores, and two freshmen. Thomas llonayne was elected presi- dent and Emily Fraccalire, secretary. ln May three delegates were sent to the Student Council Convention in Dedham. There they listened to ad- dresses, elected oflicers, took part in round table discussions, visited the historic Fairbanks house, and had an opportunity of exchanging ideas with councelors from other schools. It was a most constructive and valuable experience. Throughout the year the student council sought to bring about better relations between students and teach- ers. It was consulted in matters of policy and discipline and gave the student's reaction to these matters. Mr. Anketell and Mr. Donovan show- ed the greatest enthusiasm and pa- tience in helping the council to under- stand more clearly the aims and pur- poses of faculty rulings and actions. Such great cooperation between stu- dents and teachers was displayed that all difficulties and misunderstandings that arose were speedily overcome. Robert Dallahan.

The team won only one game and tied one. The final game with Stoughton saw the two teams playing on a muddy field with the Stoughton line breaking through twice to block Canton kicks. These two blocked kicks made the score 14 to 0 and it remained like that until the final whistle. At the A. A. Banquet letters were awarded to Capt. J. Broderick, V. La- penus, J. Gecewicz, J.

TRACK On April 4 a squad of 20 members reported to Coach William Galvin for track practice. The team is handi- capped because of inadequate train- ing facilities but nevertheless a suc- cessful season is anticipated. The track schedule was opened on April 133 with Norwood High School with the Norwood boys winning by a score of 40 1-53 to 30 1-3 points. The next meet was at Hingham with the Hingham boys hanging up a victory of 50 to Z4 points. On May 7 the Canton team was represented by three members who brought home 7 points and 2 merit medals from the New Hampshire lnterscholastic Meet. At the Annual Norfolk Young Men's Association Three Mile Novice Road Race, on April lil, the track team was represented by live mem- bers who brought home two silver cups and a gold statue. The repre- sentatives were J. Igo, W. Kelleher, W. Kessler, H. Gibson, E. Jenkins. This same group ran in the annual Brockton three mile marathon and all finished in the first twenty. This was exceptionally good as there were 78 competitors in the race. The leading scorers for the track team up to date are: Points Co. Captain lgo 2015 Co. Captain Decembrile 16 W. Kelleher 6 W.

The call for candidates was an- swered by over 30 boys, all eager to get first string positions on the var- sity nine. Among the candidates Coach Bill Donovan has found some brilliant material, which if it develops during the season, should bring home the bacon in most of the remaining games. The first game of the season was played at Stoughton and due to the inexperience of many of the local boys, dropped 19-3. The next game was played at Needham where the boys showed a marked improvement, but due to a few errors lost the game 5-0. After these two defeats the boys hit their stride and held the strong Mansfield team to an 8-2 hard-fought game. The boys then settled down to a hard week of practice in preparation for the North Attleboro nine. The Canton nine with a little bit of luck should win its share of the remaining games.

ORCHESTRA REPORT FOR 1938 The orchestra has performed very Well this year, and it is considered to be one of the best orchestras the school has ever had. This fact un- questionably is due to the excellent conduction of Miss McCarron and also to the earnest Work of the students. The total membership ol' the or- chestra this year was twenty-one. Piano, 'Cell0, Violins, Saxophones, Clarinets, Trumpets, and Drums were the various instruments represented. Rehearsals have been held each Week, when possible, and music has been rendered at the following oc- casions: Parent-Teacher Association 3 Senior Play, Double VVedding, : and at Graduation.

GIRL'S HOCKEY The 1937 Hockey Team played a satisfactory, if not an altogether suc- cessful season, under the able captain, Nancy Grover. An enthusiastic group of about forty girls turned out in September, with Miss Lyons as coach, and Marian Cook as Manager. During the season, eight games were played, with only two defeats by Braintree. With the remaining six, North Easton, Stoughton, and Sharon, the scores were tied. In January, at the A. A.
