Our Founding 1874-1883 Jonathan Kimball 1883- 1884 A. A. Wordbridge 1884- 1897 Eben H. Davis 1897-1902 Walter H. Small 1902-1910 Bartholomew C. Gregory 1910-1913 Adelbert L. Safford 1913-1926 Dr. Frank E. Parlin 1926-1938 George C. Francis 1938-1942 Leo P. Casey 1942- Frank Fieriihy SUPERINTENDENTS Mr. J. Frank Herlihy, Superintendent of Schools. Ever since Mr. Keefe sat behind his desk, conducting the first class of the Chelsea Senior High School as both principal and teacher, students and graduates have owed the benefits received from education in the higher fields of knowledge, not only to the teaching they were given in the classes, but also, for the greater part, to the influence of many fine persons. Through all the understanding faculty leaders that watched their students complete their education in high school, and continue their careers later in life, superintendents and princi¬ pals who would always be a part of the rich, full memories of youthful high school days, the graduates of Chel¬ sea Senior High School, through the years, were able to acquire and develop the characters that they would carry throughout their lives. 1 he position of Superintendent of Schools which was created in 1874 because of the increasing number ol schools in Chelsea and the need of a well organized, powerful school system, since Jonathan Kimball first exercised his duties as Superintendent, has been expertly handled by his successors down through a century of 1 Iigh School’s progress. Our present superintendent, Mr. J. Frank Herlihy who has held this office for five years has capably suc¬ ceeded in helping to carry out the duties and traditions, handed down through the years and in executing his powers lor the benefit of the Chelsea schools. Having graduated from Boston College in 1928 with an A.B. degree and Boston University with a Master’s Degree in Administration in 1934, Mr. Herlihy, whom Chelsea Senior High School is proud to claim as one ot its own former teachers, has worthily proved his capabilitv as superintendent. 6

Are Today As we proudly scan the pages of our school’s own biography that started, just as in the fairy tale, an ugly little duckling which through a period of time and experience, eventually grew into a tall, magnificent thing of beauty, we find that this point is not the end of the tale. We see that after one hundred years of development, there are still many more pages left blank, pages to be filled in by future biographers and based on, we hope, the same meritable record of achievement. %9af

Fathers Filling in the footsteps of his predecessors as competently as all the rest is our headmaster, Robert R. W ebber, having completed his education with the degree of Bachelor of Science from Colbv, Maine in 1909, and Master of Education from Harvard in 1931, and through experience from previous periods of teaching at York, Maine, Saugus, and Oak Grove Seminary. He has successfully followed their example in securing a closer bond between teachers and pupils, one that serves to enrich the student’s school and later life, through which he may be able to receive more benefit from his studies, and to apply these studies to the career which he has chosen. In addition to advising and encouraging pupils who intend to enter college or carry on advance work, our principal is always on hand to discuss and try to settle the individual problems of the student. One of our most pleasant memories in looking back over our own three years at Chelsea Senior High School as well as the ninety-seven years of its existence before we entered its portals, is that of having been under the guidance of such a headmaster.
