Oe waysthce- EP OPBE @ ancestor tines eOPLE: JOHN JOHANNESSEN. Have you ever climbed a mountain? I have — many mountains — many years ago. I've been re- membering them lately, perhaps because it’s spring and the trails are open. Sometimes when one is climbing a mountain, he arrives at a spot where the forest no longer obscures his view, where he can stand and take breath and look forward and back. The lowlands from which he came are spread out before him like a patterned fabric; the peak toward which he has been toiling lifts its granite cliff above. Here he may pause to rejoice in the hard ascent he has accomplished already, and summon his stamina and resolution for the harder climb ahead. He knows that the way is difficult. He is aware of the dangers of treacherous footing and of falling rock, but always the summit awaits him, etched in sharp precision against the blue sky or the drifting white cloud. In your journey to maturity and a high place among your fellows, you have come to such a break in your journey where you may pause to rest, to make inventory of your achievement, and to estimate the difficulties to come. Soon you will be on your way again, upward toward the heights you have chosen to conquer. Go with resolution, with pride in your strength, with faith in your ultimate success, with caution to avoid the perils that may beset you and courage to face those which cannot be avoided. And thus it may be that as you approach your goal in the late afternoon, the deepening dusk, you will look upward to behold above the dark, stern summit of the peak, far in the heavens, a bright and beckoning star.

JACKSON Assistant Principal y FACULTY pakstaa) 2) HAZEL CLARK “Let knowledge grow from more to more, But more of reverence in us dwell; That mind and soul, according well, May make one music as before.”’ The students of Classical lost a nationally known instructor when Miss Hazel Clark retired from teaching. Her musicianship, precise supervision, and inspiring leadership brought great credit to our school. The oratorios presented by the Glee Clubs and the Orchestra under her supervision were among the most in- spiring musical events in Springfield. Her annual Christmas programs were consistently applauded for their artistry. Many pupils with musical ability have been assisted by her to win suc- cess. The memory of Miss Clark will always be vivid and stimulating. CLARA B. HAWKS Rarely does a high school have the opportunity of having a teacher such as Clara B. Hawks on its staff. Understanding, patient, and kind, Miss Hawks as well as having the training requi- sites of a good teacher, was wise in her handling of human relationships. A teacher of this school said of Miss Hawks after her retirement, ‘‘Miss Hawks was more than a fine English teacher; she had something which many other teachers cannot gain through years of study”’. Miss Hawks was sincerely interested in her students’ progress. There is nothing that makes a student work any harder than the realization: that someone appreciates his accomplishments. Every pupil who has studied under Miss Hawks must have experienced this realization, for she believed in her students and encouraged them in every way. She gave her pupils the feeling that they were important to her outside of her own responsibility for them. Her understanding of all problems made it easy for any student to approach her. But Miss Hawks was more than a friend to her pupils — she was a wise teacher and a firm guide. Her classes were conducted on a demccratic basis. Her every assignment was planned with foresignt as to what her pupils might gain from it. She was a staunch believer in her fellow- man, and fought racial prejudice in every class. In losing Miss Hawks, Classical is losing a fine teacher as well as a wise friend. She will be remembered in the hearts of many in the years to come. JOSEPHINE A. WHITE It hardly seems possible that a year has passed since Miss White’s retirement from Classical High School’s History Department. Miss White’s ever pleas- ant personality will always be remembered by graduates of Classical fortunate enough to have had her as a teacher. She was graduated from Radcliffe with a Bachelor of Arts degree, and she received her Master’s degree in history at Columbia University. She later tood additional courses at Oxford University in England. She travelled extensively, both in this country and abroad, during which time she increased her vast know- ledge of history and language. This knowledge and ex- perience was invaluable in Miss White’s teaching. In these times, when history is being made daily, and when proper guidance from our teachers is so essential, the loss from our faculty of a teacher like Miss White will always be deeply felt. HARRIET W. MARR For twenty-seven years, Classical students have found a friend as well as a teacher in Miss Harriet Marr. A graduate of Radcliffe College, Miss Marr left Keene High School, New Hampshire, in 1919, came to Classical, and immediatcly won the respect and admiration of both faculty and students. Seated at her desk in 116, she gladly gave her classes what few feople are fortunate enough to possess —a vast store of knowledge in the fields of history and global geography. Having travelled extensively abroad, Miss Marr collected not only maps but also models of famous buildings, which she freely showed to her classes. As a member cf the executive board of the Connecticut valley branch of the Foreign Policy Association, she was unquestionably the one to advise the International Re- lations Club which flourished under her leadership. Despite illness, she cheerfully carried cn with her “boys and girls’’ in whem she tock a personal interest. Indeed, it was a great loss to Classical, when, last June, Miss Marr submitted her resignation. The authcr of a book on the ‘Early Republic’”’ and cf numerous children’s stories, she plans to devote herself to writing. Classical thanks you, Miss Marr, for being such an asset to our school and such a teacher who will be forever remembered by grateful Classicalites. 12 DOROTHY K.

Here hundreds of kids get careful attention: Their passes, their transcripts, their stretch in detention. A senior inquires for his rating in class, A mother demands that her darling must pass; A veteran with ribbons for valor in war Comes in for some English he flunked long before; And here’s a complaint of the girls’ room condition, And there’s a red-hot student petition; Teachers appear to plead for permission To rescue a boy who seems doomed to perdition; Now enters a girl with her head in the air Who wants a new deal: ‘‘Miss Black isn’t fair!’’ It’s “Oh, Mr. Jackson, I forgot my excuse!?? It’s ‘‘Can I go home! — My braces are loose.”’ It’s ‘Has anyone found my algebra text?”’ It’s ‘‘Is the principal in? May I see him next?” It’s ‘“‘When is the game?” or “‘Where is the gym?”’ It’s ‘I never can pass if I have to have him!” It’s “She kicked me out — I hadn’t done nuttin’?”’ It’s “I busted my zipper. Have you got a button?” It’s ‘‘How many scholarships are there in Yale?”’ It’s ‘Me old man ain’t home — we can’t raise the bail.”’ The wee Seventh Grader, the Senior so tall, To Room One O Seven they come one and all. And some they are sad, and some they are gay; But all, with their problems, make up quite a day. Yes, this is the Office, with counter and stool — It’s a popular spot, and the Heart of the School.

Here at Classical as Robert Reid in his painting depicts impressively and with great beauty the Goddess of Enlightenment does truly banish the savages of ignorance. In our extra curricular activities ignorance and pre- judice go, as we work and play with our fellows. Enlighten- ment has come to us as we actively participate in our Student Government, and in our clubs of science, drama, music, debating, international relations and many others. We have learned fair play on the athletic field. When to this full measure is added the best of curricula effectively ad- ministered by a competent faculty, we can justifiably say that we have only ourselves to blame if the Goddess of Enlightenment at Classical has not truly banished the savages of ignorance. This year book pictures the means by which Classical High School is carrying out the story of our assembl y hall mural.

In other words, we have just survived — and we do mean survived — our first days at Classical High School. We never before went through so much red tape! In about every room, we had to write what practically amounted to a short autobio- graphy, including our reasons for coming to Classical. At 3:15 we just managed to trudge down State St., and crawl into the right bus to go home. With all our books, we felt like Atlas, carrying the world around on his shoulders. SEPT. 25, 1944 — No sooner do we get to enjoy life in Classical when Freshy Day arrives. It seems that only the girls have to suffer at this school. The whole feminine population appeared at school this morning with knee socks, pigtails, no make-up [horrors]!, and all wearing such hand- some placards with their names and other vital information printed on them. All day, it looked as if Classical were advertising ‘“‘Eat At Joe’s’’ en masse. Nov. 16, 1944 — Along with the rest of the coun- try, Classical prepared for its elections. Instead of a party convention, we had a Freshman Social at which the office-seekers and the campaign man- agers extolled at length the glowing qualifications of each candidate. In the meantime, hundreds of pennies were spent on eye-catching stickers and elaborate posters. Today, our suspense was ended. The news of the moment was — “‘Doersam Does It’’ [by the way, so did Franklin Delano Roose- velt, for the fourth time!] The other class officers are: Helen Ritsher— vice-president, Katharine Vogian, secretary, Tom Leahy, treasurer, and Betsy Southworth, member-at-large. We are quickly finding out that Classical’s pet bimonthly habit is to hand out little pink cards, sparsely sprinkled with stars. Ah fate! To acknow- ledge the effort of the honor students, we all flocked down to the assembly where the names of the in- telligentsia were read to the entire school. 68 Dear Diary, JUNE 20, 1945 — Excuse me for neglecting you for so long, but being a student at Classical is such a time consuming job. As we look back over these last seven months, the events that stand out so vividly in our memories, and always will, are the death of Pres. Roosevelt and V-E Day. At very impressive assemblies Dr. Hill made us realize the. significance of such momentous events. Along about May, we found that, though still Freshmen, we had grown to know and admire Dr. Hill, and we shared with the rest of the school the feeling of regret when he retired. At a farewell assembly honoring Dr. Hill, Mr. Stanley Wougick, Classical’s band leader, and Anne Hamel presented the school with the “Blue and White March”, which was appropriately dedicated to Dr. Hill. At the same time the entire school presented him with a gift as a token of our affection. JUNIOR YEAR Dear Diary, Sept. 6, 1945 — As we passed through the swing- ing doors again and entered the ‘‘hallowed halls” of Classical today, we were welcomed in the assembly hall by our new principal, Mr. Clarence I. Chatto. His speech stressed Classical High Schocl’s motto [CHS], character, honor, scholar- ship. Besides a new principal we found a new member of the girls’ gym department, Miss Bar- bara Davis, who, to her amusement, is often stopped in the halls by teachers, mistaking her for a pupil disobeying the regulations. This year there is a new atmosphere in Classical because the most terrible war of all time has ended victoriously for us and our allies. Our future looks so bright! We can now go ahead with post-war plans that we hope will serve to keep the peace that has been so dearly won at a great sacrifice on the part of former high school students all over this great country of ours. SEPT. 13, 1945 — For the first time in the history of Classical, the whole Junior class had the oppor- tunity to take the Boston University Aptitude Tests. We all spent one long, hard day in the assembly hall, slaving over the tests and trying to prove that we really are intelligent. The write-up in the newspapers about the results of these tests asserted in a somewhat surprised tone that Classi- cal’s IQ was ‘‘Normal’’! What a relief! May 10, 1946— The new Junior class officers made their debut at the Junior Prom held in the boys’ gym this week. These new officers include: Curt Guild, president, Stuart Warshaw, vice- president, Katharine Vogian, secretary, Shirley Raynor, treasurer, and Betsy Southworth, member- at-large. Everyone had a good time except the chaperones who had to sit sedately in a corner tapping their feet while the ‘‘young ’uns’’ danced away. May 13-14, 1946— Today, Classical went to the polls for the third time. The officers for our last and most important year are to be: Dave Blair, president, Dave Smith, vice-president, Kath- arine Vogian, secretary, Caroline Chapman, treas- urer, and Betsy Southworth, member-at-large. JUNE 19, 1946— Today as we look back over our Junior year, we find that Classical made history in the field of sports. The school won five champ- ionships — yes, five! — one in track, one in soccer, one in basketball, one in tennis, and one in golf. The list of the members of the Junior class who participated is too long to mention, but everyone of you has our heartiest congratulations. Just a few weeks ago, an honor assembly was held. The Junior class was represented by Joseph- ine Giorgi, who won the Radcliffe Book Prize, Lewis Haase, who received the Harvard Book Prize, and Joyce Judscn, who was the recipient cf the Three Year French Prize. SENIOR YEAR Dear Diary, SEPT. 4, 1940— Whew! Just one mcre year to go! At last we are the haughty senicrs. Instead cf finding Mr. Hess and Mr. Hall in the science labor- atories, -we discovered two new faces: Mr. Oliver and Mr. Lynch, a young bachelor with matrimcnial intentions. Other new personalities are Miss Kelly in the math department, and Miss Horrigan in the social studies department. Nov. 10, 1946 — Today Classical is starting to have her musty, dusty, old face lifted. Her com- plexion is changing from a tattle-grey to salmon- pink, daffodil-yellow, and soft, cool green. A troup of men in white invaded Classical and with their magic brushes are transforming her so that she now is getting that ‘‘Irium Look’’. Dec. 12, 1946 — Classical’s orchestra and Glee Club presented its annual Christmas concert today, under the direction of Miss Hazel Clark. As usual, it was an excellent performance. Seniors who have helped to make it so during their stay at Classical include the soloists: Fanny Brown, Jack Peabody, Thelma Dalpe, and accompanists Barbara Aspden, Walter Dow, Joan Krampitz, and Martha Talbot.” JAN. 4, 1947— About this time of the year, seniors turn their attention to college and scholar- ships. Recently, Josephine Giorgi received the D.A.R. citizenship award. We hope that before the end of the year, many more names will be added to this list. As we look back over our high school career, we plainly see that Columbus didn’t have anything on us. For one thing, V-E Day and V-J Day oc- curred. The paper shcrtage was quite noticeable because it took a good argument to get a sheet from a teacher, and the result was a shortage of spit- balls. While Kilroy was visiting the South Pole with Byrd searching for a new continent, ‘“‘Open the Decor, Richard”’ had the situation well in hand. Home room periods changed from periods of re- laxation to buzzing huddles in 320, where in com- mittees we argued and fought our way through 69 plans for Blue and White, the prom, and banquet. And now, Dear Diary, the history committee puts down its pen and leaves the recording of future Classical events to the Class of 1948. THE BIG FIVE — KatTHy — Chairman.

Many of America’s most prominent citizens, and some not so prominent, too, were called together last week by Thomas Tehan, President of the United States of America, for the purpose of discussing the world shaking question, to wit, “How to keep Russia out of Mars’. Among those present were Robert Bousquet, holder of the title ““American Woman's dream man of 1960’’; Louise Katz, author of that ever popular, current best seller, “7901 Ways to Avoid the Common Cold”; Barbara Kinsman, first woman to swim the Atlantic; Donald Galinat, inventor of the machine which not only smashes atoms, but also puts them back together again; and Douglas Gray, world famous painter who has just sold his first picture, “Gray’s Bargain Sale Today’. Repre- sentatives of the press, who were seated at president’s Tehan’s elbows, were Pat Jewell and Rosemary Burke. A high spot of the day occurred when George Korob- kin misfired a flashbulb in his camera, thus causing it te explode. The conference, believing that President Tehan had been assassinated, went wild with joy, but was brought back to grim reality by the failure of President Tehan to stop chatting with the press. Korobkin, it is remembered, is the gentleman who, while a cherubic youth at Classical High School, became involved in a similar incident while photographing Dr. William C. Hill from a vantage point in the assembly hall at Classical. The elaborate banquet prepared by master chef Leonard Sobel consisted of hard boiled eggs, and tea, and was followed by Oliver’s special, bircarbonate of soda and ice cold minnow liver oil in kegs from the Theodore Pease Minnow Liver Oil Co. HEYMAN, TRAUSCHKE DEBUT; ACCOMPANIST, KAVONIAN Martin Heyman and Edward Trauschke will mark their debut Friday when they present the two bazooka arrangement of “The Flight of the Bumble Bee’. They will be accompanied by world famous harpist Richard Kavonian. Both Heyman and Trauschke are former students of Betty La Palme, acclaimed as the greatest bazookaist of all times, and composer of “La Chanson de l’Ensemble des Ba- zookas’’.

Attractivelv attired in harem costumes, they afterward distributed leaflets on ‘‘Faking Is a @inchis Miss Helen Johnson, teacher of chemis- try at the new Classical High School, has tendered her resignation in order to be free to marry Dr. Harold Matroni, princi- pal of that school. The vaudeville acts at the Court Paral- lelogram Theatre this week will include Burton Shaker and his trained donkeys; the Lolly Cousins, Ruth Smith and Rosalie Snyder; Diane Stone, with her well-known interpretation of ‘““The Hunt’. Joanne Sylvester ‘The Terrific Tinymite”’ will be the star of next week’s bill. As usual, the management will pay $.60 to anyone who attends these performances. Tonight’s concert at the auditorium, starring Martha Talbot, world famous tuba virtuoso, is of special interest to townspeople, since Edmund Goldman, who turns the pages of Miss Talbot's music, was once a Springfield resident. A few scattered individuals attended the lecture this coming Tuesday, delivered by Miss Patricia Tracy, on ‘Hiking Is Fun”, or, “It Doesn’t Pay To Wear Shoelaces’. Misses Nancy Terrill and June Thomas handled the spot light. IT IS SPRING-THE PEACOCK SPREADS HIS TAIL No worse play has ever hit Worthington Street than Margaret Smillie’s ‘“The Pea- cock Spreads His Tail”. A general dis- section of the plot, or should we say plots, follows. The weak thread of this unravel- ling yarn is wound about Robbin ‘‘Bob- bin’’ Buttonbrain, poorly disguised in the person of actor William Wallace, a tall spindly chap who is the hero of this threadbare tail. The curtain rises on a schoolroom. A tall bumpkin with corn silk seemingly still in his hair is being thrashed by the teacher, a bespectacled old lady wearing a chapeau—or is it a bird—with a carrot stuck in the brim—or is it the beak. Velvet Plush, the heroine, who undergoes treatment at the hands of actress Claire Piques, sits with tears in her eyes, looking compassionately at the tortured hero who is so brave. The author no doubt snatched this scene directly from Tom Sawyer. In a boring discussion, one-sided, on the teacher’s side, which follows, the peda- gogue, Helen Tober, expounds upon the disturbingly high death rate among white collar workers in the pickle industry, after which, Emma Applepolisher who is played by Jean Campbell, catching sight of an opportunity to ingratiate herself a little more, rises to the occasion and says, ‘‘And did you know, Miss Beehill, that a poor miner must filla WHOLE car of coal to buy a single Cadillac?” A loud guffaw from our boy Buttonbrain, who has no compassion on the poor miners, at this point brings on a torrent of abuse from Miss Beehill, and an invitation to deten- tion. At this, the heroine, our dear Miss Plush, goes into a frenzy, with weeping and histrionics which finally rise into hysteria. ‘‘But Miss Beebrain—I mean Miss Beehill,’’ she yowls dramatically, “Bobbin is on the team. We need him to play quarterback against Tech today.” 76 This is punctuated by convulsions, and acrobatics. At this revelation, the class utters a superficial groan, which sounds more like a yawn. The curtain comes down on a stern teacher smirking diabolically before a lazy looking class with a convulsed maiden and a gawking yokel. Scene two is laid, and we mean laid— like an egg, in a football field. The crowd is going wild, yelling and screaming like a Georgia revival, and on the field 22 differ- ent colored maniacs are running around trying to bite and kick and scratch each other. The crowd loves it. One maniac is kicking harder and biting deeper than all the rest, of course, it’s Bobbin Button- brain, gone AWOL from detention to fight for the glory of his school. What happens next comes from bodily hunger. A mysterious gent, the villain, portrayed by Donald Stover, dressed in regulation beard and eyeglasses, proceeds to snatch a string of pearls about two feet long from some lady spectator. The culprit then runs down onto the field, and snapping up the pigskin, cuts a hole in it, deposits the booty within, and swoosh, throws a gorgeous bullet pass down the field, head- ing right over the wall. Now our hero— our Romeo—our Casanova—our Super- man—our Toplitzky of Notre Dame, his blond hair flying, makes a glorious leap skyward. He catches the ball, leaps over the wall, jumps into his car, and speeds away with the booty. The curtain falls down on this, the final scene of the play. The audience, somewhat taken aback by the surprise and clever ending, rose in a body, booed loudly, and walked out. So ill- written, ill-acted, and ill directed is this drama that it was snatched up by Warner Bros., and will be cast as ‘‘The Pearls My Grandmaw Wore”’. June, 1947 Pulitzer Prize Winners (Continued from Page One) Boston. (Ethics bid us add that the last sentence is a paid advertisement. ) Friends of the illustrious scholars, repre- senting all roads of life (it can be beautiful, you know) were present: Barbara Aspden and Richard Kavonian, renowned pianist and harpist, respectively; Shirley Ander- son, holder of the women’s weight lifting championship; Margaret Baker, believed to be the only private secretary in the world able to type 999 words a second backwards; Wallace Lambert, who has, in company with Donald Altman, scientist, developed that new vitamin X — it either kills germs or kills you — depending on whether you buy the red or blue pack- age; Barbara Allen, the ‘‘Bouncing Boomerang’? — known for her exuber- ance; Dorothy Bridgman, who collabor- ates with Miss Allen—they can yell louder (and longer) than all the Tech cheerleaders put together; Joan Aronson, who came along to see if she could get her picture in the magazine Don’t Look Now But —, whose staff photographer, Kenneth Buchanan, was snapping string beans; and Neil Donavan, top-notch book reviewer. Local Residents Receive Ribbons; Misses Ingalls, Jacques Entertain At the recent state fair held in Hog’s Trough, Massachusetts, two well known Springfield residents were among the prize winners. Beverlee Frilen, local farmerette, took a blue ribbon for her first class pig. Miss Corinne Ingalls was awarded the blue ribbon for the speaking contest, which involved seeing which of the contestants could speak the most words a minute and not say anything. Judge David Baxendale pronounced Miss Ingalls ‘“‘very talented in this respect’. The prize winning oration dealt with the current problem which every farmer faces, how to wash pigs. Miss Ingall’s opening words were, in part —‘Tn my opinion, and this is my own un- biased, contented opinion, I personally think that in fairness to others, that is, of course, if you are as a sovereign individual should be, unwilling to tread on the toes and rights of others, like I myself am, of course, as Lincoln said, ‘For the people, by the people, of the pigs’, and I quote, as I said, if you are willing to uphold such contentions and that such is the case which it not only is, but of the utmost import- ance is.”’ After Miss Ingalls’ epoch making speech Jeanine Jacques of Worcester brought honor to her city with her rendition of “My Kilroy Lies Over the Ocean”, by U. C. Himhere. Jeanine, who sings in a beautiful lyric base, was accompanied by renowned harpist Richard Kavonian. The fair came to a slam-bank close with a political campaign speech by Rudolph Kraft, who is running for The Bus driver. Kraft concluded his harangue with a cigar for every baby and a kiss for every mother. ‘of course, Little Known People in the News The corporation of Dee, Muir and Sted- man, manufacturers of such handy articles as left-handed _ fly-swatters, polka-dot paint and used pen-wipers, has announced the addition of a junior partner, Joe Love- joy. By so doing, the company secured the use of Lovejoy’s collection of holes-in- socks. These will be sold at bargain prices soon after Christmas, 1990. Two of Madame Sylvia’s roughest and toughest pupils, Tom ‘‘Muscles’’ Leahy and Phil Monahan, will make their first public appearance in the main event at the Valley Arena next Saturday evening. Also former students of the Madame Sylvia School for Physical Combat, are John Keough and John Ferranti, recent contenders for the World’s Heavyweight Boxing Championship. R Your reporter made a special point to interview Bill Stebbins, a key man of that superb major league baseball team, the New York Midgets. Stebbins, inventor of dehydrated water, says that his discovery simplifies his job immensely. He is the Official Water Boy of the team. Fleet-footed Stuart Johnson, famed Spanish bull-fighter and president of the Toreadors Union of the World, will appear in the United States in July on his sum- mer tour.

INVENTION! Having concocted a new shade of red, a composite of the respective blends of their own henna hair, Ruth Brady and Elaine Hiney are being decorated by the National Council of Safety. This shade is so striking that wherever it has been sub- stituted in the tri-color stop lights, accidents have been less frequent. Drivers upon seeing it stop immediately. The Ballet Shmoos gave its usual suc- cessful performance last night in the Hall of Talent, and, in addition, introduced a most promising young star of the toe- dance, Mademoiselle Audre Lubin. Her unsurpassed talent and scintillating per- formance marked her path to success. Lending her willowy grace to the charm of the ballet was the renowned European star of dance Ethel Lazarus. Harmonizing effects were produced by the chorus, con- sisting of Dawn Lepowe, Alice Lemieux, Juanita Lord, Marion Martin, and Mir- iam Levinson, and the brilliant score written by John Houston. Miss Esther Madorsky gave her famous rendition of “La Danse au Nez” (or Playing Hop- scotch on One’s Nose’’). The male stars, were Richard Posnick and Aaron Leavitt, who performed with manly virtue and comliness the parts of the rival lovers. Thus ended the brilliant season of the Ballet Shmoos under the competent directorship of the Misses Barbara Luth- gren and Barbara Mackey. 77 PAGE THREE Varied Cases Come Up; Musicians, Dentist Featured The last session of court was one marked with humor, despair, pathos, piety, and mixed emotions. Case had as co- defendants and co-plaintiffs James Cregan vs. Walter Dow and Robert E. Lee, and vice-versa. Sylvia Levine, Cregan’s lawyer, claimed that Dow and Lee had substituted a saw for a violin bow, thus causing Cregan to saw his violin in half; and Dow and Lee claimed that Cregan had punched holes in the former’s tuba with the latter’s clarinet with the intent of rendering both noiseless. Judges James Cote and Fred Weinberg reserved decision and bailiff Conrad Brook called the next case, Benhard vs. Western Union. Barbara Benhard, under interrogation from her attorney, Arthur Frank!, testified that she had contracted W.U. through branch manager Paul Lindbergh to have several singing telegrams sent to friends, and that upon receipt of the friendly missiles her friends, Jane Dayton, Pearl Busel, and Patricia Gagnier had sued for defamation of character. Called to the stand, Lindbergh explained that singers Thelma Dalpe, Fanny Brown, and Jack Peabody, who are working their ways through singing school, with the exception of Peabody, who is studying to be a radio censor, had taken a job with the Theodore Pease Minnow Liver Oil Co. to plug the Pease product at every possible oppor- tunity, and, according to Lindbergh, this justified their actions. Judge Weinberg, being a good business man, found for the defendant. In the next case, Nancy Bohanon claim- ed that dentist Curtis Guild, instead of extracting an aching molar, had dis- possessed her of a false tooth attached to a dental plate. Witnesses for the defense, Shirley Jonas and Margaret Bodfish, pleaded that Curt is such a sweet thing that they wouldn’t mind if he made a little mistake like that on them. The all woman jury, composed in part of Ann Margolis, Maralyn Pond, Marcella Moran, Janice Le Page, and Dorothy O,Connell, agreed with Jonas and Bodfish and found the defendant not guilty. The defendant appeared in court in his basketball uni- form. SITE SOLD FOR $1,072,029.21! Springfield, Massachusetts:—It was dis- closed by Barbara Haskins, City Treasur- er, that Mr. Fulton Q. Rindge, woolen tycoon, has purchased the City Jail site for $1,073,029.21. Mr. Rindge manu- factures ‘‘Wooly-Wooly Woolens’’. Mr. Rindge’s secretary, Miss Jean Prendergast, disclosed that Natalie Rosen- krantz, well-known advertising agent will handle publicity for the new fact ory. It is believe by reliable sources that Mr. Rindge was advised to buy this site by Miss Helen Ritsher, City Clerk. The lawyers who handled the sale were the eminent Mr. Richard (Open That Door Immediately, or Else!) Booth and Miss Adela Skipton, on behalf of the city. PAGE Four Opening Game Victorious; Held In New Stadium; Record Breakers Appear The opening game of the 1960 season brought a large crowd of citizens to the newly constructed Springfield Stadium as the Springfield Pink Sox defeated Balfour City Nine in a thrilling contest, one hundred ninety-nine to one. The first Springfield major league team has brought to the fore some potential all time record breakers, including ‘‘Pinkie”’ Barr, who has perfected the slow ball. He throws the ball so slowly that the batter strikes before it leaves the pitcher’s hand. By this method, he hopes to break the strike-out record. Curt Guild, champ- ion batter, made 51 hits in three times at bat, 35 of which were home runs, giving him a thus far unbeaten batting average of 17,000. Bill Leshure and Dave Smith, at first and third bases, also turned in admirable performances. This game was also the first in which female umpires (‘‘Cookie’’ Kohn and Janet Kaplan) were allowed to serve. The Springfield Athletic Association has just put in a ruling to decrease the salary of the umpires, because, in the words of President Jackowitz, “They can live on what’s thrown at them’’. Umpire Kohn took his advice and, as a result of a wrong decision, gained five pounds at supper that evening. The game, which was benefit of the Louis Haase Hospital, netted $2,763,091.23. This does not in- clude profits on pop and peanuts sold by Patricia Gage and Libby Geller. held for the NEW MAGAZINE OUT A new publication, Procede At Your Own Risk, is now on the newsstands, to be issued the 32nd of every month. With Joan Cahalin, Edward Gerstein, Ansty and Anthony Inc. and Ann Maloney and Stuart Warshaw handling literary,b usi- ness, law, and art respectively, it is ex- pected to become a collector’s item—the first issue being the last. Dress designers J. Adams and M. Anderson (custom-made horrers our spec- ialty’’) and models Therese Bessette, Betty Jane Whalen, and Carolyn Shaw conspire to make the women’s fashion pages. That ‘‘whizz with the fizz’, McCann, has his own testing department—free recipe for his concoction—‘‘To the Class of '47’’, consisting of sodawater, orange peels, Moxie with a dash of potassium permanganate, will be sent upon request. That which the well-dressed male would not be seen dead in, modeled by Curt Guild, Tony Rindge, and Jack Kelley, has excited much comment throughout the nation—especially the pin-frizzed hair adorned with empty aspirin boxes, the luscious pastel sweaters (of pure angora and rabbit’s hair), and the Scotch plaid knee socks. Scorning such delicate scents as Russian leather, cedarwood and cognac, they are reputedly wearing axle grease and mud dabbed behind each ear. SPORTS FORECAST FOR 1960 1.

At last, the long-awaited Springfield Stadium has been completed by the Larson Construction Co. After much deliberation, a site was chosen by Mayor Joyce Judson—namely, the large, beauti- ful, grassy-green park in back of Classical High School. For many years, this site has been used as an outdoor gym for the students, where they might swim, play marbles, or hopscotch, roller-skate, or just sit in the shade, when they were tired of studying. Assistant Principal Robert Davis, willingly gave up the prop- erty, saying, “It will do much more for the students to watch professional games than to study solid geometry and Latin.” The stadium will seat 12,953,147 Homo sapiens, exclusive of the 12 scattered holes in the fence, each complete with an over- stuffed chair. The first professional game will be held next Wednesday between the Strike City Fumblers and the Fumble City Strikers.

SAUER ADVISER FOR THE RECORDER AND DIRECTOR OF DRAMATICS By Hugh Miller Miss Christine M. Sauer [the M could easily stand fcr mystery, s its significance is still unex- plained] is one of the busiest teachers at Classical. Besides having a full teacher’s program Miss Saver is the faculty adviser of the highly-taxing extra- curricular activities, the Recorder, and Dramatics.

Usually, with the click of a heel she’s off in search of some Recorder ccpy, or a list of prceperties for a play, or handling another chairmanship. One of the pleasant experiences of her life, says she, was teaching in San Antonio, Texas, which she repcrts is entirely different frcm schools here in the Ncrth. S udents there are allowed to choose their own teechers, and class rocms are fitted with mc vable takles and chairs to make teaching easier. Perkaps dve to the influence of Jefferson High School, Miss Sauer has bedecked her own home recm, 314, in blue and coral pink. Miss Sauer is indeed all Classical as she graduated frcm here and can count former teachers among her many friends. She graduated from Westfield State Teachers College and received her B.A. and M.A. frem Columbia University. Besides teaching at San Antonio, she has taught in Brattleboro, Vermont and at Washington School, Springfield. When she came back to Classical as a teacher, she taught social-studies, math and guid- ance in the Junior Department, and finally moved over to the Senior side to teach English. She also has a journalism class from which she formulates her next-year’s Recorder staff. The fine perform- ances of her Drama Class and the Recorder, which this year took three national awards in the Colum- bia Scholastic Press Association contest, is another affirmation of her capabilities. ‘“T have a great deal of faith in the ability of high school students and find that they constantly astound me with good performance in class and extra-curricular activities.’’ This is Miss Sauer’s opinion of the high school student of today. Perhaps some of her pleasing personality could best be summed up in one student’s comment. “You know, Miss Sauer really understands kids.”’ (eet asl cscecsaeh MARGARET SMILLIE Editor-in-Chief CAST OF RAMSHACKLE INN Back row: Robert Blake, Leo La Mentagne, Ellen Leddy, Eve LaLiberte, Arthur Frankl.

DAYTON Classical is indeed fortunate in having at the head of the Girls’ Physical Education Department a most competent individual — an inspiring teach- er, an understanding and intelligent woman of dynamic personality. It has been the self-desig- nated responsibility of Gertrude M. Dayton to meet the needs both physical and spiritual of her pupils. In order to reach and educate the whole girl, she has striven to make the Physical Educa- tion program: not only a matter of physical exer- cise but a means of developing the girl’s character as well. She has endeavored to balance the lack of facilities in the gymnasium with a very strong after school program; yet, she realizes fully that the real strength of the physical education program does lie in its daily class work. She has broadened the program of G.A.A. activities in order to reach every girl in school. Mrs. Dayton’s ready wit, frankness, and genuine interest in each individual are the qualities to which may be attributed the successful fulfillment of her aim:— ‘‘an optimum functioning of the whole organism which enables one to play more vigorously and joyfully, to work with greater suc- cess and satisfaction, and to serve others more effectively”. This section of the Blue and White which illustrates the extensive girls’ physical edu- cation program is a tribute to a teacher, who by her skillful teaching does not guide a mass of girls impersonally but who guides and instructs the individual girl. She seeks to utilize to the full those capacities in each individual girl that are the strongest, and to stimulate an interest in physical activities among those girls who are not naturally inclined in that direction. Her work arouses inter- ests and enthusiasms which will last long after high school days are over. 117 G.A.A.

OH, MY ACHING BACK! LEARNING THE FINE POINTS OF THE GAME MAY DAY BASKETBALL 118 PrOkE NGG GAYEORL) “A fair exterior is a silent recommendation’’— this quotation aptly describes Mrs. Gaylord. She herself is the consummate picture of what every girl in her posture classes should strive to be, a perfect lady of graceful carriage. She has a good-natured seriousness and a quiet sense of humor, inherent qualities which only those girls who really know her can appreciate. It is on the badminton and volleyball courts, on the soccer field and softball diamond where we have fun with her. It is in 128 where we receive from her the benefit of the greatest gift that she has to offer — and one of the greatest gifts that any person has to offer —a kind and understanding heart. It is in her first aid and posture work that she has the opportunity to know her pupils as individuals, and therefore to give so generously of herself in order to help those most in need of help. 119 BARBARA B. DAVIS Weare deeply disappointed in the resignation of Miss Davis, whom we shall remember most for her understanding guidance of our sports while being at the same time one of us. We wish her success in her work at Boston University College of Physical Education for Women, and we thank her for these parting words: “Tt is not without regret that I leave Classical High School. There have been many joys — see- ing girls developing skills, learning to love games, beaming with the thrill of competition, displaying good sportsmanship and tolerance, and making lasting friendships through sport. Basketball games, softball and hockey practices, and Outing Club have been loves of mine which | leave with sadness. The memory of these things will always give me pleasure and draw me back to Classical in years to come.”’ Good luck, B.B.D.

Out of the seven games played, we won one, tied one, and lost five. During the first game, the Bulldogs boasted their full strength, but as the season continued, they were handicapped by injuries. Our first upset was at the hands of Amherst with the score of 7-0. The Bulldogs fought it out with Chicopee in the second encounter and although we out-scrimmaged the Wildcats, the score tallied to 18-6. A score of 33-0 showed that the West- field boys were more powerful than the State Street Chargers. Our ‘Classi’? boys just couldn’t find that ball in all the mud and rain at Veteran's Field, West Springfield, and came out on the short end of 13-0. The Bulldogs battled Trade in the opening game of the City League and when the final whistle blew, it was a 7-7 tie. Then for the first time in the season the team played the brand of ball everyone knows it is capable of, and came up with a victory of 21-6 over Northampton. The final game was lost to Tech with the score of 28-0 me, but what.of 48) Biddie Leshure, Ken O'Neil, Curt Guild, Don Ryan and Bob Hirschault did most of the ball handling, while Dave Smith, Bill McCann and Pete Mason held down the ends. Bill Ansty and Tom Tehan played the tackles with Dick Kavonian; Bob Davis and John Kelly played the guards. The greater part of the centering was done by Ed Goldman and Jack Kelly. Kicking was executed by Curt Guild and Biddie Leshure, while Ryan and Guild did most of the passing.

In two of their opening contests the Clas sical booters lost twice to Monson High. The same 2-0 score was the verdict both times. In the opening inter- city game the team had to accept a tie with Cathedral. Trade took the next encounter by a penalty kick. Cignoli’s lone tally was enough to beat Commerce and give Classical their first vic- tory. Classical missed the services of big -Dave “Truck’’ Harriot in their first game with Tech as they ended up on the short end of a 4-2 count. Wally Groth and Tony Rindge accounted for the home club’s score. In the next game Dave Bur- bank’s two. goals weren’t enough to beat the four kicked in by Monson Academy. Don Vaughan’s forward line finally hit their stride as they easily beat Cathedral 2-0, and Commerce 3-0. The final game with Trade proved to be bad luck for the Classical booters. Soon after Pete Larson was fcrced to leave the game because of a head injury, the ‘“‘mechanics’”’ scored a lucky tally which, how- ever, Was not enough to win the game. In their next face-off Don Vaughan’s chargers battled the Eliot Street booters on even terms to a scoreless tie. For their final game, Classical played host to Monson Academy which is considered one of the best teams in Western Mass. Monson scored first, but Dave Burbank quickly tied it up. Monson again took the lead as they scored during the third period. In the fourth period Classical had com- plete mastery over the ball. The forward lines fired time and again at the Monson nets only to have their goalie clear the ball. Time ran out before Classical could score. Although the Soccer team lost the intercity championship, their superb play- ing at the end of the season proved that they had lots of fight and ability. RIFLE CLUB The Classical Rifle Team was undefeated this season and are undisputed City Champs. The sharpshooters cleaned the slate this year and expect to do so next year because they’re all under- classmen. Captain—John Shea.

CURT GUILD, DAVE SMITH Co-Captains 135 BASKETBALL With only two returning lettermen, forward Curt Guild and center Dave Smith, Classical emerged from a short 14 game schedule with 8 wins and 6 losses. Although not champions as last year, the Bulldogs finished up a strong second in the city league by defeating Cathedral, Trade and Com- merce in every encounter. Classical opened the season with Westfield and was snowed under by the fast moving Mogemen 57-33. . Then the Bulldogs snapped into the win column by defeating the hustling team of Enfield High 35-34. The boys kept on rolling and turned in an impressive 53-42 victory over the favored Springfield Junior College. The Blue and White opened the city league with a close 35-34 victory over the scrappy Cathedral quintet. Westfield again defeated us on January 14, when after a close battle they finally captured the lead and in the last minute of play won the game 48 —40. Classical remained a strong contender for the city league championship by defeating the hard playing ‘ry.
