HEMPEL O our uersatile instructor in German, whose teaching is flavored with her amiable disposition and keen sense of humor, Miss Emelia C. Hempel, this issue of the CADUCEUS is respectfully dedicated. Foreword N compiling the contents of this book we have earnestly endeavored to compose one which would reflect the spirit of Classical. It has been our aim to present a true mirror of the activities of this school, an institution where one not only gains an exceptional amount of knowledge, but also a host of true friends, both among the students and the teachers. MARY EDNA BUDLONC. N this issue we wish to pay tribute to one who was always a true friend and adviser: to one whose kindly manner will be remembered in Classical long after her passing, and become an inspiration to many.

Hockey, 122, UQ, H15 Captain, UQ. ELVIRA NANCY AGOSTINO Vera's cheery smile and sunny disposition have won her many friends during her sojourn at Classical. Her sparkling blue eyes reveal her fun-loving nature. The glee club, choir, and all of us will certainly miss her charming voice. Because of her pleasing personality she will be sure to succeed in whatever field of work she chooses. Glee Club, KZQ, UQ, H25 Girl Reserves, IZQ, 1315 Choir, ANNA ASHODIAN Anna, who makes the S-C-A-D possible, is one of the most friendly girls of the senior class. Her generosity, wit, and pleas- ing personality are only a few of her many outstanding traits. She has achieved a very high standard in her work. Whenever you hear laughter from her corner of the room, you can always be sure that Anna is at the bottom of it. Anna intends to study music, and will certainly be a success in anything she under- takes. Good luck and happiness to a dear schoolmate. WILLIS BLAISDELL BUCK Bill, though his high marks in all his studies might indicate otherwise, is in reality a very jovial fellow, whose wit evokes many a hearty chuckle in the lunch-room. This future chemist will further his education at Brown, and his host of friends Wish him the highest success. Summa Cum Laudeg Chemistry Assistant, KZQ, 131, MJ: Sports Editor, Caduceus, RUTH ELIZABETH CARR Here is a bonnie lass whose Wit and charm are destined to form an oasis in a desert where many of us may become just so many grains of sand. That's why we feel her companionship will always be acceptable to others. Those difficulties which her keen wit will not overcome will never successfully withstand her charm and good-humor. To our fascinating Ruth, in her years at Smith and throughout life, we fondly Wish the best there is. French Club, UI, M15 Class Secretary, KU. EVELYN CAROLINE CASTALDI A veritable pleasure indeed is an introduction to Evey. Due to her pleasing and helpful disposition, she has won several loyal friends who will remember her long after graduation. With her keen mind, without spending long hours over her books at night, she has achieved praiseworthy standing in her classes. She is largely responsible for making the S-C-A-D , the delightful union it is to its four members. Her future 'aspirations are di- rected toward a business career, in which she undoubtedly will easily succeed. Whatever Walk of life she enters, Classical sin- cerely Wishes her luck. Basketball.

ESTERINO PAUL CIMINO Cimino's sparkling smile and pleasant personality are but two of the reasons for the popularity of this sturdy, handsome lad. A great tackle of our football team and a mainstay of our track and baseball teams for the past three years, he has con- tributed no little to the success of our athletic teams. There is no doubt that he will be successful in whatever field he enters. Good luck, Esey.

MILDRED MAY CRANDALL Mildred is one young lady who never has to be spoken to about whispering, That isn't because she is an angel. No, it's iust that she can always find something better to do: conse- quently her report card always shines with A's, and she is the proud possessor of the coveted summa cum laude key. Millie is always friendly and ready to lend a hand to her classmates. With these line traits she will surely meet with success in her future undertakings. EDNA AY CURRY A flashing smile, laughi own eyes, and a sparkling humor are only a few of the ' uishe qualities possessed by Edna According to the sayingv goo ings come in small packages , there is no variation en ied to this petite miss of Room 3.

HENRY JOSEPH DAVID Shake hands with an excellent student and an up-to-the- minute sports' authority. Hank's company is sought by many people at all times: some may wish help with the last few lines of Vergil, and others may wish to talk over the Yankees' chances for winning the pennant. We shall all miss this great friend after graduation, but we know that he leaves us with the key to success safe in his pocket. Summa Cum Laude. ERMITA DEL MATTO Ermita is one of the most genial girls in our class, with her quick smile and ready sympathy. She enters into all her activi- ties with zeal, and is a great enthusiast for sports. To all those who know her well she is a true and loyal friend, and is always ready for fun. She is one of the four S-C-A-D-S . a secret order among three other Classicalites. ln the future she hopes to become a nurse. May good luck and happiness be with you always!

Her stay here has prpveclto be very pleasant, dueqo her friendly manner. Whatever -her life's ambition may be, we hope that it will be crowned with success. ROBERT F. FERGUSON Bob, our future Dr. Ferguson, whose willingness to help a friend is always evident, and whose personality brightens up a classroom, has made a host of friends at Classical. He is always ready for his sight translations in any French class. Classical certainly has missed the good athletic power of Bob. because of his outside interests. Bob will be an honor to the field of medi- cine. Football, 121. IDA PAULINE FRIEDMAN With a keen sense of humor and a cheerful giggle, Ida has steadily pursued her course at Classical. Her career at school has been praiseworthy, and her career outside will undoubtedly be the same. Every day she surprises us with her line French and German. Because of her merit, Ida has won membership to the Cum Laude Society. Those who know Ida have no doubts about her success.

His popularity with the girls and boys is expressed by the words, Prince of Good Fellows. Football, 121, 131, 141.

His attributes are too numerous to mention in this small paragraph. Added to his achievements is the fact that he was chosen on the 2nd All State Hockey team last year. His exploits on the gridiron, rink, and the courts will be remem- bered long after he has gone from our school. Cross Country, 1115 Football, 122, 142, Hockey, 1Zj, 131, 141.

LEWIS IRWIN SHWARTZ An open letter to Lew Dear Lew: Wefare not going to praise you. In fact, we have a complaint to make. We admit that you are a nice person: we admit you have done well in your studies: we admit that you have occupied important positions in school affairs: we also admit that you are a very busy man-what with your studies, your photog- raphy, your literary efforts, and all that. Yet, We wish to com- plain. A complaint-short, but full of meaning: We complain that you have not given us enough of yourself! Yours, THE GIRLS OF THE CLASS.

ANNA MARY SILVESTRI Dame Fortune blessed Anna with a jovial personality, an ad- mirable character, and that wondrous gift called vision. Her assiduous work and stamina have made her a summa cum laude student, and yet she is very modest about her accomplishments.

During her stay at this institution she has graced the honor roll with her name not a few times. Although one of our quietest and most reserved classmates, she has won friends through her ever-ready willingness to help, her sincerity, and her even disposition. With all these assets, naught but success can possibly await her. French Club, f4j. SAMUEL SALVATORE TANZI Here we have a quiet, neat, and industrious fellow who is always ready to help a friend in need. He has shown remarkable talent and skill in drawing, although this is not his favorite subject. His careful procedure in everything he undertakes will be' a great help to him. With these characteristics we are sure he will be a success. RUTH MARION THOMAS That flashing smile and cheery word of greeting, so well known throughout the halls of Classical, radiate Ruth's spark- ling personality.

The results were: Classical 46, Lockwood 22, Aldrich 13. On February 5th the Purple and White trounced Providence Trade to the tune of 52-20. even though many of its star per- formers did not compete. Classical then placed sixth out of 21 schools in Class B in the Eastern Seaboard Relay Carnival, which was held in Boston on February la, for leading high schools of Maine, New Hampshire, Massachusetts. and Rhode Island. The team scored 6L points. In the City High School Championships of February l7th and l8th the scores were Hope 405, Central 30, Classical 27l, and Providence Tracie 0. The Providence Y. M. C. A. meet found Classical in sixth place, with l0 points. Then on March 6th, at the Auditorium, the last and most important meet of the in- door season was heldgthe Rhode Island Interscholastic League Championships. In Class B it was Classical all the way, as the blinding speed of the purple comets left everyone in a packed house breathless with excitement. In only one event. the shot put, did the Purple and White fail to score, as it rolled up 57L points to bury Lockwood, the runner-up, by 40 points, Ralph Lewis and Bruce Sundlun tied for first place in the high jump at 5 feet, 6 inches, while Sundlun also won the standing broad jump with a leap of 9 feet, 4Q inches, a new record. Robley, Bander, Black, and Coppa-all of Classical -placed, l, 2, 3, 4 in the 40-yard dash, while Robley's time, 4.6 seconds, was a new meet record. Again in the 300-yard run places were scarce for the other schools, as Robley, Bander, and Parvey took the Hrst three places for Classical. Another meet record went to Fred Robley for his time, 36 lContinued on Page 553 47 Football -- 1936 Back Row-f-Latour, Roblu-V, Mcllonough. Sheridan. QT. Hefner. C.1m mo. iushmg. Salk, Fisher.

On October 2, 1936, Classical began the season with a 19-6 defeat at the hands of Aldrich. Parvey caught a pass in the end- zone, late in the game, for the lone touch- down. Next week St. Raphael showed a baffling array of forward passes, which humbled the purple and white, 12-O. The next encounter was with Country Day, in which some costly fumbles spelled disaster for Classical. The score was 26-0. The Westerly game was a battle in every sense of the word, but surplus power rolled up a 27-O score against the purple. After a 13-0 defeat from Lockwood, Classical lost to Central Falls, 19-6. Captain Eddie Maher broke away on a long run that put Classical back in the scoring column. The last and most decisive of a rather discouraging series of defeats came from West Warwick, undefeated and subsequent Class B champions. The score was 33-0. At Roger Williams Park, in the final game of the football season, came the one real, bright spot. Classical faced Mt. St. Charles, to whom they lost, 26-O, in 1935. Before the first period was many minutes old, the purple and white had blocked a kick and taken possession of the pigskin on the Mount St. Charles 23-yard line. An aerial from Maher to Fisher netted seven yards on the next play. Then Maher drove through the line for another seven-yard gain, and a first down for Classical on the Hilltoppers' nine- yard line. ln a succession of plays, seeing Maher carry the mail with great frequency, the ball was placed on the Saints' two-yard line just at the close of the quarter. ln the second period the Mount St. Charles line held on the first play, and Ronan punted the visitors out of danger. Late in the third pe- riod Classical received a break which Was utilized to the best advantage. Due to a fif- teen-yard penalty, the purple took the ball on the Hilltoppers' four-yard line. After three smashes at the line, Captain Eddie Maher dove over for that all-important six points, The extra point came as the result of a pass from Maher to Fisher. Classical really deserved to win this struggle, for they CContinued on Page 481 48 Cross Country -- 1936 Back Row-f Bell, Benoit, Brier, Paparulli. Second Row--Thomson, Ponrarelli, Stafford.

Although the season as a whole was rather unsuccessful, a great deal of experience was gained which should show effects next year. Almost the same squad will be on hand at that time. Classical stayed with its op- ponents throughout the Hrst part of nearly every game, but failed in the closing mo- ments of all but two of them. Bellino and l-a Fauci starred throughout the entire sea- son, and the former was the leading scorer in Class B. The closest and most interesting encoun- ter of the season was the Hrst meeting with Lockwood. A very close battle precipitated from this game, as the Purple and White rallied to knot the score at 19-l9 in the last period. Bellino dropped one from outside the foul line to tie things up.

I H1 - The Classical Hi-Y, one of thousands of Hi-Ys in the United States. is an organiza- tion which is run completely by the mem- bers. Every Monday afternoon a meeting is held in an assigned room at the Y. M. C. A., during which everything, from the busi- ness of the club to skeet-shooting, is dis- cussed. Every Friday afternoon an athletic period is allowed the club by the Y. M. C. A. heads. The Hi-Y is given the complete run of the gymnasium, enjoying badminton, basketball, field hockey. soccer, baseball, track and calisthenics. The officers of the club are -Eliot Rice, President: Robert Black, Vice- President: William Tukey, Secretary: and Jack Cameron, Treasurer. The congeniality of the members and fine spirit of competition fostered by the athletic program combine to build up a strong feeling of respect and co- operation among the members. The Junior Hi-Y has recently been reorganized, with Lloyd Cornell, Alec Cameron, Robert Lewis, and Howard Bacon leading the work, The Senior Hi-Y extends its greetings to this body and wishes it success in all of its undertak- Cvolf-- 1937 The 1937 golf season consisted of twelve matches with the six other schools in the lnterscholastic League and lasted from April 22 to June 3. Classical's opponents were South Kingstown, Cranston, West Warwick, Lockwood, Aldrich, and North Kingstown. Most of the games on the first half of the schedule were played at the Wannamoisett Country Club, the Purple's home course. The team was composed of Hanna, Warren, Hand, and Farrell, who promised to provide many afternoons of interesting competition for their rivals. ings. 53 Girls' Hockey Front Row' The Misses l5rlScsm.

Although the Varsity hockey team won only one of its three games, it was the best hockey season Classical has had in several years. Due to inclement weather, few prac- tices were held. The scores of the games were as follows: Hope 4 Classical O Central Seniors 4 Classical 0 Central llB's 0 Classical l 4-O may seem like quite a margin of differ- ence, but our girls were really much closer to victory. Many times the opponents were hard pressed as Classical threatened to score, but lacked the necessary punch to do so. On the snappy, brisk afternoon of Novem- ber 23rd our girls really showed their mettle. During the entire Hrst half Classical forced the play deep into Central's territory, but were unable to score. ln the second half Georgia Melcher sent the ball through the goal-posts for the only score of the game, and for Classical's victory. During the season the Champion Irish Women's Hockey Team visited Providence, and our players had the extreme good fortune of receiving instruction from several of its members. Although there was splendid all-round playing, the outstanding members were Cap- tain Jane Place, Georgia Melcher, Ruth Har- ris, Filomena Kubilius, Priscilla Young, Dorothy O'Leary, Jean Pyne, and Katheryn O'Connor. Girls' Cageball Team The Girls' Cageball Team, although pro- vided with many excellent players, had a rather unsuccessful season. The girls, led by Captain Doris Tyson, fought hard for vic- tory, but ill luck intervened. A large num- ber of girls participated and met their oppo- nents with great enthusiasm, Ruth Harris, Jeannette Barlowski, Phyllis Grossman, Jane Place, Eleanor Whitman, Jeanne Pyne, and Dorothy O'Leary displayed outstanding ability. The last game with Central proved to be the most exciting one, due to the close score throughout the game. ' 54 Is F Senior Baslqafball K , n. Place, Harris, Captain: Prince, Lepre.

Some of the outstanding players on the team were Jane Place, Eleanor Whit- man, and Evelyn Prince, forwards: and Chelis Bursley and Doris Tyson, guards.

Outdoor Track -- 1937 After so successful a season indoors little else but top-notch performance was expected as the Purple runners took to the cinder track. With the same men on hand for the Spring period, the team's only need was some good representation in the weight events. It was hoped that the red hot enthusiasm produced by the victory at the Auditorium would send out many candidates for the discus, javelin, and shot. Guided by its well-known and widely popular coaches, whose names it is superfluous to mention, the squad was con- ceded to be a winner, for in every member was present a determination and aggressive- ness which could not fail to produce effects. The meets scheduled for this Spring were the following: May l State Relay Carnival 8 Rhode Island State College Invitation Meet A' I5 Rhode Island Interscholastic League Meet at Brown 19 Triangular Meet with East Providence and Lockwood 'A 22 Atlantic City Relay Carnival 31 Brown Invitation Meet unior Hockey liront Row- Iflvnnor M.

Smla, Fencing -- 1937 In the opening match of the season Classi- cal's foilsmen met Central at the City High School gymnasium and handed the latter school a 6-3 defeat. All four men in the match managed to score, as Delguidace and Pieri garnered 2 points each, while Irving and Blank made singles. Somewhat over a month later the Purple swordsmen again defeated Central with a 5-4 score. This time the team consisted of Luisi, Vv'einstein, Mor- rison, and Samos. Luisi was Classical's star, scoring 2 points. The Purple and White also beat East Providence twice, remaining undefeated in league competition, although they met defeat at the hands of the Brown freshmen. The championship team matches were to be held Saturday, May lst. It looked as though Classical had an excellent chance to take the coveted crown, which it has held so many times in the past, away from East Providence and rule supreme once more in high school fencing. Indoor Track --1937 fContinued from Page 463 seconds. In the 600-yard run first place went to Sundlun, while Sonis tied for fourth place. Bruce's time of l minute Z3 seconds equalled the meet record. Tcath and Keppler placed third and fourth respectively in the IOOO- yard run. Ralph Lewis won the 45-yard low hurdles, while Black and Sonis came third and fourth in the same event. The relay team fRobley, Black, Lewis, and Parveyj walked away easily to a new meet record of l minute, 3.6 seconds and, of course, a vic- tory. A world of credit is due Coaches Thomson and Buonanno for bringing the team along with such unusual speed, and for placing Classical definitely on top of the heap in one branch of athletics. 55 56 Cagehall Front Row The Misses l'mrg.in1ian, Grossman, ' ' ' 7 XVI' Pl ' 'liwun Captain' Prince lepre O'I eiry Second Row -Ihv Nlissvs lyne, 1itm.in. aw, 5 , . . . .I V. . . . .

Cum The Cum Laude Society was founded in 1906, in the Tome School, at Port Deposit, Maryland. lt is not confined to Classical, or to Rhode Island itself, but has chapters estab- lished throughout the country. The Priory School in Portsmouth, the Moses Brown School, and Classical High School are the only three in the whole state honored with membership in this distinguished organiza- tion, and this is truly an honor, for the standards of the Cum Laude are very high. Laude In addition, Classical has the distinction of being the Hrst public High School invited to join, and the year of its entrance was 1921. The society is based purely on scholastic ability, and those eligible for membership are Seniors. lt is possible for one-fifth of the entire class to achieve this goal. The first tenth with the highest records are of Summa 'Cum Laude rank, and the second tenth with records following most closely are of Magna Cum Laude rank. The Cum Laude should be the goal of every Classicalitel Baseball -- 1937 Vlhile failing to do much hitting in the first two games and suffering from lack of experience, the Classical nine evidently found its batting eye in the third game of the season. The Purple and White swallowed two shut- outs K9-O and 7-OD from Mt. St. Charles and Lockwood and then went down fighting before St. Raphael by an 8-5 score. Eddie Maher, Classical's veteran first baseman, poled out a homer in the latter game. The starting lineup in the first game was Randall, pitcher: Manocchis, catcher: Maher, first base: Toppi, second base: Bellino, shortstop: Parker, third base: Almon, left field: Bucci, center field: and Sheridan, right field. This has, of course, been altered here and there since that time. Pontarelli pitched in the St. Raphael game.

Especially we can't see why because she seems to get so hot and bothered when any- one as much as looks at her.

Parker, Cushing, Schwartz and Simmons are on the basketball team. The girls are represented by Janina Barlowski, captain of their cham- pion girls' basketball team, and by Helen Armbrust and Dot O'Leary, who have shown their ability in cageball and basketball. The sophomores seem to have a definitely practical turn. Johnson and Miss Pournaras CRoom llj demand to know why a certain bearer of the Fiery Cross C Lady of the Lake D, who is supposed to be in a great hurry, insisted on buckling on a sword, sing- ing a song, and sundry other wastes of time. While we are about it, we'd like to make a few predictions. CID That at least two of our aspiring actors and actresses will ful- fill their ambitions. Better put these names down: Bill Weston, Nancy Wight, Dot Petrie, Alice Pearlman, and Evelyn Leoni. C21 That Sackis Kaloastian will get some- where with the violin. C31 Bob Wheeler and Stanley Tcath will blow mean bugles, even without their purple and white uni- forms. f4J Jack Benny and Fred Allen have nothing on us. Room ll has a feud, too. Messrs. Garn and Harcourt show it in various ways, especially by artistic CU cari- 68 catures and misleading promptings in class. As regards the affairs of maids and men: Clj A certain young, bold but handsome Chandsome is but not that handsome doesj gentleman from Room 1lR finds Classical interesting while pulling Hope's braids.

In the way of Athletics, try to do us one better than Sundlun, who is a member of the track team-not a bad football player. either, in case you would like to know. While we're on the subject, how about Heifner, la Fauci, Bellino, Hand, Fisher, Votta, Salk, and Bud Keppler, all our track stars. For football heroes may we show you something in Vito Coppa or George Goldman? In bas- ketball we are represented by Romano and Andrewskevitz. As far as girls' athletics is concerned, Doris Brennan draws top-bil1- ing for her corking swimming, since she holds just about all the New England titles for women. Other tip-top athletes are Hope McKinnon, Phyllis Grossman, Helen Mc- Laughlin, Priscilla Short, Helen Taylor, Mabel Bargamian, Celia Walsh, and Helen Halipos. For tangible proof of our success, look at Cal Fisher and his Make a big hole in the pile of doughnuts campaign. Further, look at the members of the Junior Class on that eminently successful paper, The Review : David Troup, William Tukey, Gertrude Ruch, Allen Wardell, Marian Murdock, Harvey Spear, and Frances Lury. And as for art, haven't we Gertrude Ruch, Phyllis Grossman, and Charlotte Borad, in the dramatic society? And as for art of music, Irving Adler, Gertrude Ruch, Helen Taylor, James Tramonti, and Marie De Castango provide quality for the bugle and drummers. As for musicians in the orchestra, look at Harvey Salk, Edith Hermann, Mabel Bar- gamian, Pearl Parvis, and James McAlear. OUR NOTABLES Does a certain ex-Classicalite hockey play- er account for Hope Lent's interest in Hope? We are on the inside that Joe Hand has an ardent rooter at all the hockey games. She has pretty red hair, hasn't she, Joe? Tell Mr. Kramer that Sundlun is a better ping-pong player than he, but not unless you have good, strong legs. W. T. informs us that he has heard a rumor to the effect that Helen is the prettiest girl in the class. May it be suggested that Miss Shein bring her love to keep her warm for that drafty period of English honor class. Room 13 now has three young ladies each named Wells. Miss Day says that we will be well supplied with water. Does anyone want a driver's license? Tommy Gattone is reported to be willing to turn his newly acquired one in for a scooter. Who doesn't know that Helga Quist's heart palpitates for Burke alone? ls it true that Margaret Kelly will sue the Review because it printed that ridiculous statement that she was chasing Stanley John- son? ff! l' O 06:0 Lf 70 Review Board Top Row4Bcrry.

Vkhrdrll, The Classical Review has now complet- ed its fourth year with just as great success as in its past years, both in the literary and financial field. Its literary climb to fame was proved when the Review won the Bronze Medal in the Junior Journal contest. The papers financial condition allowed sev- eral members of the staff to attend a luncheon of the Rhode Island Scholastic Press Asso- ciation at Gilbert Stuart Junior High School in November, and a tea of the same organiza- tion at Central in March. Moreover, two members were sent to represent the Board at the New York Convention. Through grad- uation the staff will lose many of its leading members, including J. J. Wardell, the editor in '37: but, rest assured, those underclass- men who will take their places, guided by Miss Bernice E. Sears and Miss Bessie A. Loud, will edit papers next year just as good, if not better, than those of the past year. Hi - Tri The Hi-Tri, a club open to all girls of Classical High, holds its meetings at the Y. W. C. A. every Tuesday at 4 o'clock. The club advisor is Miss Haynes, of the Classical faculty. The officers are Dorothea Vamvakerides, president: Gertrude Muddiman, vice-presi- dent: Edith Eogell, secretary: Evelyn Prince, treasurer. The club has made visits to some interest- ing places in the city. A frankfort roast was held at Dean Parkway last winter. Other plans are being made for the future. Every two months the girls from the Classical, Central, Hope, Cranston, and the East Providence Hi-Tris hold an interclub supper at the Y. This year, in order to raise money to send a delegate to the Summer conference, the Hi- Tri held a dance, April 9, l937. 71 Senior' Play l-ron! Row' Miss Staiiclell.

Because of increased enrollment and difli- culties in corridor passage, the traffic squad was reorganized last September under the leadership of Mr. O'Connell. Arthur A. Smith, Jr., was elected Captain, with the later addition of Paul F. Taylor as Co- Captain. Taking an active interest in traffic condi- tions, the squad sent deputations to the East Providence and Cranston High Schools to study other systems of traflic, with profitable results. The squad successfully handled ushering at the January graduation, the Senior Play, and for other activities about the school, including responsibility for lunch- room order. At a later date, the squad was given pow- ers of Student Council by Mr. Paine and was elected to membership in the R. I. Federation of Student Councils. Arthur Smith, Howard Weiner, and Paul Taylor made the trip to North Kingstown as dele- gates to the January meeting of this organ- ization. A delegation was also sent to Paw- tucket. Cordon Johnson has been nominated for office in the state organization. Credit for improved traffic conditions must be given to Mr. O'Connell for the fine work he has done as head of the traffic squad. which, though losing members by gradua- tion, hopes to continue under his leadership during the coming year. Dramatic Club The badly-scratched and newly-varnished doors of Room 23 swung open on October 22, to allow a horde of eager-to-be Ciarbos, Taylors and Cantors to pour into the Theatre de Dra-ma lR. 23l. Under the capable direction of Miss Katherine M. Phelan the membership soon swelled to the overflowing limit of 75. The meetings were conducted by able of ficers: Richard Turner, President: Henry Hoye, Vice-President: Virginia Walsh, Sec- retary: Richard Potter, Treasurer, and Edna Wilbur, Program Director. As spirit was not lacking, soon the pro- grams were going along right merrily, an ad- ditional incentive being that, by the work done in club, a part in the big play might be gained. Though many of the club members displayed special ability, outstanding work was done by the Johnson Brothers and their operas, operettas, and operations, Frimette Silverman and her amusing monologues, and William Weston and Dante Votolato Cthe original bugaboosj and their original skits and farces. Two entertaining novelties were Gladys Basse and her egg marionettes, and William Weston and his Guignol Puppets. French The French Club, under the competent direction of Miss Charlotte A. Wetherell, has had a very happy and eventful year. At an early meeting, the following executive officers were elected: John Santamaria, president: Frances Graben, vice-president: Stanley Johnson, secretary: and Ruth Carr, treazsurer. The first ma'or event of the ear was the Christmas party. Refreshments were served and small gifts were exchanged. Miss Weth erell read the story of the birth of Christ Louise Fitzpatrick read a Christmas poem and a short skit was presented by Edna J Y I' The Ge The German Club enjoyed a successful season under the able direction of Miss Rae and Mr. Clamon. The election of the offi- cers at the beginning of the year resulted as follows: Herman Tillinger, President: Bar- bara Singleton, Vice-President: Erica Sieler, Secretary: Charles McGovern, Treasurer. Meetings were held on the second and fourth Wednesday of each month, with Paul Tay- lor in charge of the programs. Other mem- bers of the program committee were The- rease Wiesel and Selma Schlossberg. The programs consisted mainly of German songs, which were sung with great gusto by cer- tain members of the Verein , and a vari- ety of interesting German games. 73 An original play entitled A Modernized Version of Uncle Tom's Cabin was writ- ten and brought in by Wm. Weston, a Soph. but because the play was a musical comedy, the club did not wish to use it. The Charm School , a three act comedy, was chosen and presented at Gilbert Stuart on April 28. Those taking part were Stan- ley Johnson, Dorothy Petrie, W. Arthur Littleield, Nancy Wight, William Weston, Alice Pearlman, Phillip Davis, Edna Wilbur, Richard Turner, Gladys Basse, Henry Hoye, Phyllis Grossman, Virginia Skonberg, Ger- trude Ruch, and Evelyn Leoni. The Dramatic Club had a very profitable year. If they are as enterprising next year, they will continue to keep up to the Classical High School standard. Club Curry and John Santamaria, Throughout the program various songs were sung by a chorus made up of members of the club. Another memorable meeting was the one at which Ernest Upton gave an illustrated talk on his eight years in France. The closing party was held in May, with games atnd refreshments. Members of the French Club all agree that the meetings have been most enioyable, besides developing a greater facility in speaking French, and thinking in that lan- guage. man Club At one of the later meetings were exhi- bition bridge games, given by the follow- ing: Phyllis Clason, Margaret Cumming, Joseph McDevitt and Davol Meader. A German newspaper has been instituted by the Club. The newspaper, written wholly in German, and which is believed to be the first one of its kind in the State, is published monthly. The Hrst number of the first volume appeared April 7, 1937, and contained school news and many items of interest to German students. The staff of the newspaper consisted of the following: Joseph McDevitt, Irving Chucnin, Phyllis Clason, Margaret Cumming and Joseph Dickens. 74 Debating Society Back Row Ciavanaugh.

Miss Banker was later succeeded by Pearl Wasserman as Secretary. Having successfully directed the club for 7 years, Mr. Asa Ci. Randall intends to give active charge of the organization to Mr. Louis P, Willemin but has consented to act in an advisory capacity. Though losing its coach by retirement and its captain by graduation, the organiza- tion anticipates a successful season under the direction of Mr. Willemin. Ep QBIBLIOMANIACS Q? M M Anthony Medal Prize Essay The Radio Versus the Newspaper as a Means of Moulding Public Opinion STANLEY F. G. JoHNsoN Day after day, Week after week, year after year, the opinions of our newspaper publish- ers have been set forth in bold type for all America to read. These newspapers have championed, with almost continual success, worthy causes- and some rather more than slightly tainted. They made mayors, governors, presidents: and if their wishes were not complied with, they unmade them. A chain of newspapers has been a weapon to wield over a recalcitrant man to force his approval of measures of which he might conscientiously disapprove. The thought of being calumniated over an entire nation is not pleasant. The influen- tial newspapers availed themselves of this power unmercifully. Witness the Spanish- American war, which has been conceded to be a project of the Hearst interests: our entry into the World war, which might have been averted had our journals been less violently pro-Ally: the daily trials-by-newspaper which decorate our more lurid tabloids. During the last presidential election, four- fifths of the American newspapers were definitely campaigning for Governor Landon. President Roosevelt was subjected to an out- pouring of vicious slander which would have resulted in a libel suit in England, a duel in Hungary, a firing squad in Germany. The Democrats, realizing their impotency to combat the Republicans in the press, turned to radio. They discovered it to be their best friend. They were blessed with a candidate whose radio personality was vivid and colorful, one whose speeches were sin- cere, interesting, and well-deliverd: Governor Landon was dull, spiritless, his every speech turned thousands to Roosevelt. When one speaks over the radio, one is exposed naked to one's audience. There is no kind editor to deliver the punch-lines in eye-compelling headlines: there is not only a friendly per- sonal audience, but also an indifferent, prob- ably hostile, invisible one to win. When the campaign was entering its final stages, the Republicans seized upon the issue of Social Security, and made it the base for vile attacks on what was called the Roose- velt payroll tax . I might say, to dispel the idea that I may be prejudiced, that although I was brought up in a religiously Republican household, I was disgusted by these cowardly attacks. Again radio came to the aid of the Demo- crats. Aside from their candidates' speeches, they bought vast quantities of air-time. After every station announcement would come the words, The Democrats gave you Social Se- curity, the Republicans are trying to take it away from you. There are many who never read a newspaper, but there are few of us who escaped having that phrase dinned into our ears. After the fifteenth hearing, a certain amount of curiosity would naturally result. What's all this: what is Social Security? we said. Then, where did we turn for information -to the newspapers? No. We sat back, and allowed the Democrats to explain, as they so obligingly did, ffrom a sense of Pub- lic Duty?j over the radio! These purposely cool, wisely unbombastic reports, we com- pared with the scurrilous newspaper attacks --scarcely to the credit of the newspapers. America has passed the stage where she votes for the party which slings the most mud. We like to believe that we are thinking. If ever there was a time when the radio and the press were opposed to such a degree that we might judge which was the stronger, this was it. Looking at the results of the last election, we may see that radio has finally broken the stranglehold which the newspapers held on American thought for over a century. 77 Anthony Medal Prize Essay My Favorite Character in History PRISCILLA D. YOUNG Of all the people who walk the pages of history, Napoleon appeals to me most. There is something about this son of an impover- ished Corsican noble that takes hold of the imagination. Rising as he did from the posi- tion of a poor lieutenant of artillery to become the greatest man of his time, one of the greatest of all times, even in defeat he re- mains great. All the jealousies of lesser men can only add to, not detract from, his glory. I will do no more than sketch in his career lightly, for in its essentials it is known to most people. Napoleon Bonaparte graduated from the military academy at Brest, a lieutenant of artillery. His first appearance on the great stage of the world occurred in the Revolu- tion. Later, by a brilliant defense of the Directory, then the ruling power of France, he won a generalship and eventually the command of the army of Italy. From then on, his rise was meteoric. He finished the war in Italy in one of the most famed cam- paigns of all history. Although the Directory attempted to get rid of him by sending him to Egypt, Napoleon returned to overthrow it and become the ruler of France, First Consul of the Republic. Four years later he became Emperor of the French. His campaigns may be read in any military textbook, or biog- raphy of him. With his famous divorce, his misfortunes began. 'First there was the dis- astrous Russian campaign, then the Battle of the Nations, exile, and finally Waterloo. He was sent to the island of St. Helena, where he eventually died of cancer. Because of his many wars, Napoleon has been called selfish, over-ambitious, cruel, and a criminal waster of human life. Let us con- sider if all this censure is merited. Any stu- dent of history must admit that the Napole- onic Wars were originally started, not by Napoleon, but by the other great powers of Europe. The contention of anti-Napoleon- ites is that Napoleon continued the Wars. This is not true. Napoleon made peace again and again, only to find the same powers once more in arms against him. He has been called over-ambitious, but surely the aim of a united Europe is a worthy one. He has been called cruel: yet his soldiers idolized him, from the smallest drummer-boy, to the great- est Marshal of France. There may be a grain of truth in all this censure, but it certainly looks like jealousy. Now let us consider the benefits accruing to France from his rule. Napoleon consoli- dated the things France had gained by the Revolution. Although he Was a dictator, he did not interfere with personal liberty. Rather did he put it on a sounder basis by halting forever those proscriptions that had made the Reign of Terror. Under him pro- motion became based on merit, not on any outside consideration of wealth or position. Napoleon also codihed the laws of France. This Code Napoleon, as it is called, was so just that to this day it remains the basis of French laws, and that of many other nations besides. By his famed Concordat he re- established relations between Church and State. He beautified Paris and undertook great public works, without raising any debt. in fact he helped to establish France's linan- cial affairs on a firmer basis. In view of all these things, historians agree that Napoleon was necessary to the future strength and glory of the French nation. With the facts of his career before the eyes of the world, surely it is clear that Napoleon was not only a great soldier, but also a great organizer and statesman, and that, whatever mistakes he made, he gave enough of lasting good to the world to rank with the two great soldiers of antiquity, Caesar and Alexander. The Motor'ist's Lament The other day I bought a car In the low-priced Iield, it's true, But for my Mr. Average Man's family One of the big three has to do. For I'll do well if I can swing The taxes I'm forced to pay To Uncle Sam, the city, state- They grow greater every day. 78 There's a tax on the car, on oil, on gas, I'm footing the road-building bill, But the tax which touches my tender spot Is the tax for just standing still. In days of yore to the driver Parking was really a joy. But now there are little green monsters Just waiting him to annoy. For some great foe of the motorist Stuck posts along the street On land which belongs to all of us, Spaced apart just so many feet. And after surveying his handiwork, On each post he placed a machine. Why? To raise the revenue? No, to be downright mean. With their little red arrows like darting tongues The meters eagerly wait to devour The hard-earned nickel you must put in For a minute or an hour. Senior The senior year is filled with joys For Class'cal High School's girls and boys: It brings them frolic, fun, and show, And takes away their hard-earned dough. They've rings and pins on every shirt, Class'cal Reviews their deeds insert. Dances, movies, and late evening rides Make their marks like toboggan slides. John can now inhale a smoke, When, as a freshman, he used to choke: Buys a Caduceus : shells out three bucks, And for the Prom swipes his ol' man's tux. He earns some money to buy a car, But when it goes, it doesn't go far: He wears checked pants and striped hose. And reads Esquire for his nobby clothes. He tries out feebly for the Senior Play, Then calls it quits the foll'wing day: But his spirit's there: you saw the gleam When he bought his doughnuts for the football team. The arrow goes down to zero. The machinery starts to roar. You're safe here for an hour But don't stay any more. For if you happen to overstay The time on the little gauge, A policeman is ready and waiting To subtract more from your weekly wage. You needn't complain. It does no good. Don't even say, Oh, fudge! For if you do, your fine will be raised By the kindness of the judge. And so again Mr. Motorist Has to bear it with a grin. For just as usual he has to take Even Park-o-meters on the chin. But anyway, we've got them. The meters we'll have to bear. For the only thing that's free to-day Is one kind of gas-hot air. ALICE COLLIER, l2A Year Mary also is quite the tops: She's invited to all the smartest hops: Uses a perfume which fairly reeks, Whilst rouge and powder adorn her cheeks. She's had her picture taken thrice And says Oh, no! when you say it's nice: On her feet are high, squeaking heels: To keep her figure, she misses meals. Her telephone number is so well known That its constant ring makes mother groan: Her brunette hair with fuzzy top Has changed to red in the beauty shop. And thus it happens vear after year, But as Kipling said, Do not have fear, For after the battle, you dear under-grad. You'll become a senior-or else go mad. RICHARD SoN1s. 725 If Not, Why Not? Ann stopped just within the door of the Remington Public Library and cast a casual glance around the room. There were three seats vacant: one beside an Italian woman who was broader than she was long, the second next to a bald-headed old man, the third-Ann crossed quickly to the third va- cant seat. Although her heels beat a smart tattoo on the stone floor, the boy next to the third empty seat did not look up as she slid into it and threw back the collar of her fur' coat. He had been frowning at the floor, and he still frowned at it, even though Ann was far pleasanter to look upon than any floor. Three minutes later he was still scowling at the floor, which was probably getting an inferiority complex. That wouldn't do. Looking up from the magazine she had been reading, Ann glanced at him, She was right, it was David Preston, the sensational new hockey find of Remington High School. Cautiously, Ann drew her magazine gradually to the edge of the table. In some strange manner it slipped and fell, fluttering, between the two chairs. David Preston turned slightly. With a half sigh, he picked it up. At her whispered thank you he looked at her for the first time. His dark eyes met her darker ones, and he frowned decidedly more than before. He resumed his contemplation of the Hoor, and she resumed her contemplation of him. Rumpled brown hair, regular features, dark eyes-yes, he would do. Only that scowl-. On a sudden impulse, Ann leaned toward him, but the sign, Absolute Silence , in letters a foot high was too imposing. In- stead. she scribbled on a piece of note-book paper: Do you always look like a perpetual grouch? It's unbecomingf' She shoved it toward him, and watched him scan the lines. The curt answer came back. Does it concern you? Unabashed, the girl rapidly wrote back, It certainly does. I don't want to be seen with a perpetual grouch, David Preston. But I don't suppose you frown all the time, so here goes. Will you go to the Remington High Girl's Dance next Wednesday with me? The youth read the note with an un- wrinkled brow until he came to the last sen- tence, when his forehead contracted again. He looked at her and shook his head nega- tively. Ann was taken by surprise. She had never yet had her invitation to a Remington High Girls' Dance, in which the girls were privileged to ask the boys, refused. Perhaps some one had beat her to it. Are you going with some one else? she whispered understandingly, keeping an eye on the library attendant, who took a menac- ing step nearer. Again the hockey player shook his head negatively. Oh, she had it. He couldn't dance. But in answer to her question, he wrote a little indignantly, Of course I can. Thoroughly puzzled, Ann scribbled swift- ly, Is it me? Would you go if some one else asked you? Again he answered no. That's some consolation, Ann told her- self glumly. Just the same, it was exasperating. She got up and buttoned her coat. The library attendant, whose duty it was to keep the quiet, relaxed and took a step in the other direction. Listen, Ann said to David in a low voice, come on outside a moment and we'll iight this thing to the bitter .... She stopped, for his eyes had suddenly become startled, then alarmed. I can't, he scribbled hastily in his book, beneath the portrait of Marie Antoinette, which had within ,the last five minutes sprouted a beard. But I don't see, she began, as the alert library attendant started toward her with a definite purpose. I won't accept your an- swer, she whispered hurriedly. I'll give you till Tuesday to decide. 'Bye, the girl ended just as the attendant reached her side. She smiled sweetly at the attendant and walked briskly toward the door. Ann Sheridan spent the following week wondering if the boy in the library would accept, and if not, why not. By Friday she decided to call him up soon. Saturday she changed her mind. Sunday she was sure he would accept. Monday she was not so sure. That evening she gave in and rang his num- ber. I don't think I can go. I'm really terribly sorry. There's a faint chance yet .... she 80 heard before she murmured, I see in a voice ten below zero, and slammed down the phone. Still she didn't ask any one else, and prac- tically lived in the telephone booth Tues- day after school. David Preston had not been at school that day, and she wondered why. Finally the phone rang. Grabbing it, she gasped, Hello. Hello, Miss Sheridan, a laughing voice answered, You certainly gOt to the phone quickly, didn't you? Ann colored. ls your invitation still open? he continued. Do you know what I've decided? How should I know? Ann asked very casually. I'm going, he announced jubilantly. Well, why don't you say something? Do you expect me to weep tears of joy on your shoulder or something? the pretti- est girl in Remington High asked. That would be pleasant, he admitted, then added hastily, but skip it. Then l'll pick you up at eight, she con- cluded. You know the girls have to get the boys for these dances. Quarter to eight that evening found Ann ringing the doorbell of the Preston home. She was admitted by a little girl, who, judg- ing by her dark eyes and curly brown hair, was Uavid's sister. Oh, hello, she chirped, you're that pretty girl who's going to take Davie out, aren't you? He was afraid he couldn't go, 'cause he got in a fight on the ice last week, and the old hockey stick knocked out one of his teeth-'way up in front, too. He was mad as the dickens. Gee, he did look funny, though, she said, chuckling at the remem- brance. He didn't want no one to see him, either. He went around like an old grouch, 'cause, if he smiled, they'd see his tooth. I mean they wouldn't see it. But. . .why does he want to go then? asked Ann, both enlightened and puzzled. Oh, he made the dentist let him come earlier. He said, 'O. K.' he'd fix it if he came in the morning. So Davie went to the dentist's, 'stead .of going to school yesterday. Oh, I see, -Ann said slowly. Grinning, she walked out to the car with David Pres- ton, who had just descended the stairs. He grinned back, unaware of the scrutiny his even White teeth were receiving. RUTH EBELKE, What H-ave We? Crash, crash! bang, bang! A queer odor, pungent, and unpleasant to the olfactory nerves, penetrates the sanctity of Classical. What can it be? five hundred Freshmen voices cry. Pear not, my children, it is no air-raid by a suddenly appearing foe, but a clever attack by the W. P. A. boys. The startling, explosive-like sounds are caused by the drilling and making of holes in the walls for electric clocks and room-to-room tele- phones: the obnoxious, repulsive fumes may be blamed on the paint-remover, used to re- move the age-old, time-stained varnish on the wood-work of Classical's corridors. In- cidentally, the W. P. A. artists have invaded the school-rooms, the plan of which is as follows: The home-room teacher distributes her fledglings carefully in other rooms which have not their full quota, and can seat a few extras. The home-room teacher her- self is shipped along with her desk to an adjoining room, where the two teachers make a sociable duo. Then the painters, kalsominers, electri- cians, et cetera, move in with ladders, sheets of canvas, cans, and a list of miscellaneous articles. The door is officially closed, and we are locked out-Then comes lapse of time, from four to eight days. We are summoned from our temporary home-rooms. There is a sighing of grief and relief as we leave the presence of under classmen. Crowding into our home-room, we find to our amazement a remarkable change has taken place. It actually looks homey, and hasn't that cold, bare look. fOf course, the odor isn't exactly what it should be.j The beautiful oak panelling has been accented by the light colored varnish and by the buff colored walls. New electric light fixtures have taken the place of anti- quated ones. However, the electric system is upon the proverbial blink.

At the sound of the buzz, the class breaks forth in unison with telephone One teacher, CI. of course, wouldn't tell on Mr. Clamonj has a young lady to answer the telephone. It's a cute idea, this inter- mural communication system. I suppose the messengers, those pretty young maids who sit outside the office and talk to the boys, will start a real sit-down strike because of unfair competition given by the telephone system. It's just another example of machines taking the place of human labor. I feel sure the masculine mem- bers of classes rather miss the sudden appear- ance of a petite messenger, you know, to break up the monotony of a somewhat bor- ing class.

The long window of the back parlor was open to let the gentle night breeze into the hot house. She was resting after a day of excitement-her sixtieth birthday, and four of her children and two grandchil- dren had been there. They were all gone now. Benjie had gone with Andy to talk over some business deal: Julia had gone too -to be a bridesmaid at Georgie Bartlett's- Ann's wedding: John had gone early in thc afternoon-a call from a patient. The house was quiet once more, but she wasn't a bit lonely. This day had recalled memories-. lk Pk 'lf Julie Petingill, yellow pig-tails, sparkling brown eyes, rosy cheeks, black and white pinafore, was going to have a birthday party. Ten years old! It was a still, hot summer morning: the sky overhead was as blue as the bay which glistened below in the sun, but the ground was hot to her bare feet and the dry, brown grass was rough. She peeked under the white cloth over her bas- ket, put in two fingers and nibbled reflect- ively, That's good! I guess I'll put the things down here by the lilac bushes and go tell Georgie to hurry. Then Georgie fshort for Georgiannal Mason came flying through the orchard with her red hair streaming loosely behind her and blackberry stains on hands and lips. She doesn't have to wear a hat, Julie thought enviously. Her own mother in rustling brown had tied a sunbonnet firmly to her head before she left the dark house, but the children of plump, smiling Mrs. Mason raced hither and yon through the fields like wild things, all summer long. After they had eaten, they moved to the broad rock which formed the top step of the flight from the well to the side yard. Her mind was with the boats out in the bay, and she said, When I grow up I'm going to go in a ship an' go all over everywhere! I'll go to China and there'll be Emperors and Empr'sses and Princes come to see me, an' everything'll be gold and silver and all shiny. And I'l1 wear-I'll wear a gorgeous gown. blue like the sky, with a beautiful cloak, white and shimmery like that little cloud--- there, over the crab-apple tree. Huh, said Georgie, the practical, who had been ten in April, 'iyou can't. Only boys do-like Nat Price. Is he? Is he? When? Uh huh! He tried to stow away with Cap'n Hall, but John made him promise not to go 'til he was seventeen. Two years! John's old, isn't he? Mm, he's been grown up a long time. Why'n't he do what he wants then? Why, Mom says he's a very dut'ful, de- voted son an' he has to take care of his mother and Nat. Well, just'a same when I grow up I'm going to do as I like and go to see all the foreign countries. You can't-unless you marry a sailor. and then maybe you'd be like Mrs. Cap'n Hall, all alone mos' the time. Well-just'a same- Jul-ie! Don't sit in that hot sun. Stay in the shade or come in the house. Yes, mother. Well, an' anyhow, how do you know so much about everything? I never hear anything. Huh, my mother says your mother is the closest-mouthed woman she ever did see. Don't she ever tell any gossip? Never? No, she don't. My father tells us about his travels when he was young before- Julia, come in the house. And back she had gone to the dark, cool house to sew on her patchwork. Just the same. I am, she said. stamping her foot. What? demanded her mother. Oh, somethin', vaguely. af :of :of Miss Julia Petingill, almost nineteen years old. with her vellow hair done up in a pretty roll and wearing a dress of flowered dimity trimmed with bands of satin ribbon, stood at her window pensively fingering the ruffle on the curtain.

Because it was the last Continued on Page 87D 84 Half Fulfillment David Dalton was a wistful, idealistic young man, who had been a cripple since childhood. For the greater part of his life he had been striving to obtain the education which other young people often took for granted. During his childhood, soon after an automobile accident, which had cost him all of one leg and most of another, a tutor was hired to teach him the fundamentals of grammar and arithmetic, and to occupy his mind with thoughts other than those per- taining to his affliction. As he grew older, he seldom paid much attention to general studies, but showed a preference for books relating to that strange land, India. He hardly ever went out on riding trips, as he used to, but stayed at home instead, or rode to the library for more books on India. The thing in this fascinating coun- try which interested him most was that famous building, the Taj Mahal. Authors had described it as glistening in the sunlight, or rising majestically in the night. All who wrote about it praised its excellent archi- tecture and beauty. The more he read of it, the stronger his desire became to visit this beautiful building. Finally it became one of his ambitions. Another ambition he had was to do something during his lifetime which was really noble and would give proof that a humble cripple could be worthy and brave. As he sat reading in his study one day in autumn, he was interrupted by the arrival of a telegram. It informed him that a distant relative had died, and a lawyer was on the wav to see him concerning the will. Much to his surprise, a great sum of money had been left to him. After concluding the necessary legal transactions, he quickly put the matter aside and returned to his reading. It happened that his birthday came in the spring, when he became of age. Then he could do as he wished with his inheritance. He decided to use the money to fulfill his greatest desire, that of visiting the Taj Mahal. He arranged hurriedly for the trip. and soon the day came when he was bidding his friends goodbye. On the second day- at sea, David noticed that the passengers were forming into gay, friendly little groups, and became a little sad when he realized that no one was making an effort to obtain his friendship. The only ones who paid any attention to him were a few children, who, although shyly at first, later came to him eagerly to hear the wonder- ful stories he could tell them about the mar- velous land they were to visit. He was at- tracted to one, especially, a small, dark-haired girl with deep blue eyes, whose name was Anne. She was the only one who did not continually express curiosity concerning his affliction, and who did not embarrass him with questions concerning it. Anne contin- ued to spend much time with David, even when the other children sought other diver- sions more suited to children than those found in the company of one as old as he. When the ship docked at European ports for a short time, it was'Anne who, with the permission of her' parents, went on gay shop- ping and sightseeing trips with him. Often she came home laden with foreign trinkets and dolls of the countries where they stopped. As they neared the end of the journey. David began to regard Anne almost as a younger sister, and to regret that their time together was drawing to a close. On the last day of the boat trip, about two hours before docking time, Anne and David sat in deck chairs by the side of the ship's swimming pool. There were no other passengers about, as almost everyone was finishing his packing. Suddenly, Anne dart- ed forward after a rubber ball, and slipped on the Wet tile about the edge of the pool. Unfortunately, she could not retain her bal- ance, and fell into the water at the deeper end. Quickly the realization came to David that the child could not swim. He hesi- tated but a moment, and picking up his crutches, propelled himself toward the water. At the edge of the pool he threw his crutches down and half-jumped, half-fell into the pool. Frantic with fear for Anne, he managed to keep himself afloat and to get the child to shallower water, where she was safe. Upon discovering herself to be safe. she immediately set up a wild cry for help. Before help could fContinued on Page 99D NOTHING NEW Poets write of birds and bees And the shade of leafy trees, Flowers rare and fishes too, That's the reason I'm so blue. There's nothing new.

Classical, we truly honor thee, And love full well thine aged, golden walls, Thy sun-lit rooms, and vaulted council halls, Where yesterday we sat attentively. Too soon allotted years of study flee: We all must sadly heed vocation-calls: But eager scholars new will scan the scrolls, And forge firm friendships ever joyfully. No precious legacy of learning stalls: Thy brood doth keep its oft-acknow1- edged trust And strive to gain the world's own gift: a name That, honest-earned, is meet-undying Fame, Which, gi'en to them, return to thee they must, As moon does sun, they ill reflect thy light! By EDWARD HUNT. MODERN STREET SCENE 1 They lean on pick and shovel, and gaze Upon the world about, Their pose must irk them through the days, Yet work would tire them out. 2 The whistle blows at twelve o'clock, They show some signs of life: They drape themselves upon a rock And eat with aid of knife. 3 Perchance they dream of foreign lands Or of a happier day- I think they ought to use their hands And earn their weekly pay.

HARR1s 87 Ships A-Sailing CContinued from Page 831 day of school before vacation, she had told her pupils about things that were dearest to her heart: far-away lands, little brown peo- ple, great swirling, muddy rivers, jewel-like tropical isles, old forts and castles, snow- capped mountains, azure lakes, famous bat- tlefields, great bustling cities with ships com- ing and going- And soon I'll be there and see them myself, she thought. I hate to leave mother and father, but they don't seem to mind my marrying Nat. In fact, father seems glad to have me settled. He's getting old.-It will be queer on clear nights not to be able to look out and see the light there in the fishermen's huts out on the point, and the stars in the bay-, why, even the stars won't always be the same! And the smells will be different! No wistaria! She turned back into the room to finish packing the big trunk ready for the next week. 'fBut I'm so happy! I'm going to travel. And I'm going to marry a sailor, as Georgie said, but not just to travel, of course. i Julia, dear, come quick! her mother called, her voice sharp with fear. Your father- Mother's scared, she thought, running down the stairs. Twelve years later, Mrs. John Price, at noon of a hot August day, fastened the last strap on the last bag and sank Wearily into the nearest chair. There, that's done, and the baggage man will be here soon for them, and the next time those bags see this house they'll be plastered with foreign labels. John's so good to me-a trip abroad for our tenth anniversary!-Funny to remem- ber that I ever thought of marrying Nat- The wistaria outside the dormer-window seemed almost the same as it had the night that her father had had the heart attack. He'd died that night, and of course she couldn't leave her mother then: so Nat had gone off alone. John had been awfully nice to them then: of course it was his brother's fiancee's fam- ily. When Nat came back, she told him she was sorry, but she wasn't as sure as she had been and broke the engagement. but he only acted a little relieved, which hurt her pride for a moment. Then she realized that his one and only love was the sea, and im- mediately she felt better. John kept on doing nice things for her and her mother. In the end she had married him, although he had been thirty-six to her twenty-one. He had wanted to take her for her trip then, but her mother Was so sick and her two older sisters so far away-Mary in New York State and Louisa in Oregon-that she couldn't leave her. After her mother's death they had stayed here because it was nearer town, but they didn't feel they could leave for any length of time while the children were so small. Now she was to have her trip and see a lit- tle of the world, and it would be all the pleas- anter because she had waited and planned! The three children, too, seemed delighted at the prospect of visiting Gramma Price - with Uncle Nat and his extravagant tales as an added delight-for six weeks. The children were off, now, in the newly- mown fields, saying goodby to every- thing , she supposed. They were like her: it was just the thing she would have de- lighted in: running up and down over the golden windrows of sweet-smelling grass, thrilling at the feeling of the stubble between bare toes, rescuing unlucky flowers from the rake, riding the hay-wagon.-By the happy shouts she guessed that was what they were doing now-. Then suddenly the tempo changed. No longer happy, sunny laughter, everyday sounds, but a cry of fright and pain, shouts of alarm. She felt a chill of apprehension, a sudden cold breeze pass over her. Nothing can happen, now. I've wanted my trip so long! The trunks are all packed. Nothing can happen. Outside the window the bees were buzzing, and within her head, ran, like a refrain, 'fNothing can happen! Noth- ing. Against the green and gold and blue back- ground of trees and fields and sky, a block multitude-in reality only two fearful chil- dren and four men bearing a light burden- were approaching the house through the Barn Meadow. Mechanically she was down 88 the stairs, and the stiff front-door latch undid itself for her numbed fingers. They entered the narrow hall, blinking at the sudden change from dazzling sun- light into orderly darkness. She knew, felt, rather, what they would say, but she listened, her eyes hot and blinded, a dull thunder in her ears. Mother, John fell off the hay wagon. Don't cry. The horses were frightened, ma'am- And they started to run away, mother- We sent Ned for the doctor, Ma'am. He'll be here soon. They laid him on her bed, little John, her baby, only four and a half, and so white. Mary and Andrew, who were seven and nine, pale and frightened, tried to com- fort her. Mike, who was old and had worked for her father, too, said stumbling- ly, Don't you worry, Miss Julie. I-Ie'll be all right pretty soon, but it sounded as if he were trying to convince himself. Someone told the baggage man they wouldn't need him. wk ak 4: All the years after that seemed to run to- gether, John lying there in that corner room while other boys were out playing: doctors? a wheel-chair: Benjie, who was such a pretty plump baby: crutches: and finally Julia. It was when little Julia was almost two and just learning to walk that she almost lost her balance leaning over the porch railing, and it was John who dropped his crutches and res- cued herl He could walk on his own legs. although always slowly, limpingly. Then there were Andy and John going to college. They had pinched pennies then! Mary had married Allan Wicks and on their twenty-fifth wedding anniversary, she and John were the proud grandparents of little Mary Louise. Finally America, too, was drawn into the whirling vortex of the war. Andy and Allan went, but John Wasn't accepted. A brief message came: little Mary Louise's father was dead. That had been a hard time for them: Allan had been almost another son to her. She had gone to New York with John when Andy came home: she had been to Boston three times and to her sister Mary's once, but she kept on hoping to see more of the World and planning, too. bs: 1: wr It was 1925 and her family was growing up. John had finished his interneship and had settled down to practice. Mary had married again and gone West with her law- yer husband. Andy had relieved his father and was in charge of the business. A ship would sail on September 25, and John and she would be on it. It was such fun to sit here on the cool verandah, with brightly colored travel-folders spread out, the bay out beyond as blue and sparkling as any pictured on the folders, the sky far bluer, white catboat sails-. All her plans were made. Nothing could happen. Julia, who was seventeen, would stay with Andy and his wife, and Benjie, who was going to a college of business ad- ministration, would have John to keep an eye on him. And when we come back in the spring, John, she said, turning to her husband, you'll be tanned and just brimming over with energy. Well, really, my dear, I feel younger than our Benjie right now for all my seventy years! Thirty-four years together! You've never been sorry? Oh, John, of course not, she said, re- proachfully, and sat peacefully dreaming for a few moments with her hand in his. Well, I must go in now. Those young people will be coming in soon as hungry as a pack of starving wolves-. From the kitchen Window she saw him go round the side of the house, and when the crowd of chattering youngsters had filled up on sandwiches and freshly baked cookies and scattered, she followed him. As she went out through the screened back-door and through the arbor extending along the rear of the house, she noticed what a beautiful golden day it was: blue sky, fleecy snow-white clouds scudding about- perhaps a storm later-green, green grass, and cool refreshing shade. There was John now resting on the bench in the shade of the lilac bushes, this side of the orchard, with the sunshine, filtering through interlacing tree branches, flickering on his hair. Asleep, perhaps? No, he had started on a long journey, and without her! an 1:1 Pk A week ago Mary had written suggesting that she come and pay them a nice long visit. Perhaps she would some day. It would be nice to see Mary Louise and the two little boys, Jeff, Jr., and David. She and John had planned to visit Mary on their way home from that trip they had been planning five years ago, when he died. This very afternoon her son John had said, Mother, why don't you go now? You've waited so long. I'm getting to be an old lady, son. I hope you don't really believe that. At sixty you don't feel a day older than you did at sixteen, now do you? Younger, in fact, she replied, and smiled. But I'l1 see. It was true. She was young. John's mother had been ninety- two when she died, and had outlived both Interview With A Questions CQD asked by Ima Newshound. Answers CAD by Willy Shirk. . N. B. Not one cent was paid for this interview. Q. When did you start working in Classi- cal? A. What do you mean, start ? O. What is your work? A. Nothing is my work, I just help the rest of the boys. Q. What do you mean help the boys ? A. Wal, I move ladders, carry buckets back and forth, go around busting in on classes. Heh, heh! I haven't had so much fun since the day I was kicked by a horse. I always had a hankering to break up a class and to think I have my chance now. God bless President Roosevelt. Q. What did you do previous to working for the W. P. A.? A. I was an eight-day-clock-Winder. Q. A most peculiar occupation. Please ex- plain. A. To tell the truth, the job didn't last. You see, I was hired as a seven-day week man, and I didn't see where the eighth day came in. Gosh, but they 89 her boys. She didn't want to outlive her children. She wanted to go ahead and be with John to meet them. She had wanted to see the rest of the world for so long, had planned and hoped and thought about it so much that she really ought to go, now that she could. Perhaps, I've thought about it too much. The expectation and planning might cast a shadow over the real thing. And what would I do travelling by myself? John's gone, and all my family and friends are here. I like this house. She hummed a little song and sat rocking gently, soothed by the familiar creak of the chair. Yes, Tabby, she said as she felt the cat's contented purr, 'AI guess I know what's best for me.

I'm afraid we're getting nowhere in no time. What are some of the hobbies or particular interests of the W. P. Afers? A. Wal, there are all sorts of time-wasting hobbies. Now I'm a member of the sharp-shooting club. Of course, I don't like to brag, but I'm the 15 foot champ. Q. Do you mean you have rifie practice in that club? A. No, of course not, I mean a sharp-shoot- er with chewing tobacco. Why, I carry a little pail with me wherever I go. Practice makes perfect, you know. Then others like to interrupt classes. Heh. heh, that is an art in itself. Now I remember, while we were fixing the win- dow, how a youngster next to me would scrape the window with his putty knife: this would create a grating sound that would cause every girl in the class to shudder. And then there is always the urge to go into a class-room filled with pupils, studying, and saunter around non- chalantly, feeling the steam-pipes, or looking at the thermostat. That causes a ripple of giggling every time. Further enjoyment may be had by casting leer- ing looks at the teacher. My, what mirth-making schemes! Have you any other funny tales? Sure! I remember the day one of my fellow-workers Walked from the base- ment to the third floor with a roll of wire which had been unwinding all the while he had been climbing the three flights of stairs. His exclamations and interjections were censored. Oh, yes, and then there's another of my buddies Who deliled the memory of Shakespeare by breaking the copy of Shakespeare's Epitaph which, prior to the accident, had a position of honor on the wall over Miss Gregory's desk.

What did you think of the last election? It was all right. Personally, I'm a Communist, you know, down with everything. Get it? Heh, heh. Oh, yes, I get it. As a matter of fact. l've thought that was the motto of every W. P. A. man, down with every- thing. Have you anything else to add? Nope.

J The Brazilian Cat BRUCE SUNDLLIN To Tod Morton, sitting in the library of his luxurious apartment on Berkeley Square, in London, life had a discouraging outlook. Tod was the only son of the late Sir James Morton, and a good looking, ath- letic appearing young man of about twenty- two. Sir James had left his son quite a for- tune when he died, but Tod, who was a reckless chap, had run through the entire amount, and was now waging a desperate battle against his creditors. The only chance he had for any immediate reimbursement was through the death of an uncle, of whom he knew he was an heir, but although this uncle was on his death-bed, he had been in this precarious position for five long years. It was about his ever-mounting bills that Tod was thinking when the doorbell of the apartment rang. Jarvis, his valet, went to the door. It's a Western Union boy, sir, said Jar- vis when he returned. He has a telegram. Well, what are you waiting for? asked Tod impatiently, Give me the telegram. Just as you say, sir, began Jarvis, and then he said, but you see, sir, there's a charge of half a crown. Tod reached into his pocket for the money, but became fiustered when he found that pocket empty. Jarvis, pay the boy yourself, and add the amount to your week's salary. Morton said, after fruitlessly searching his other pockets. Yes, sir, answered Jarvis, but then muttered to himself, If, and when I get my salary. The telegram proved to be from Tod's cousin, Ralph Blakeny, whom Tod had thought to be away in Brazil, inviting Tod down to the Blakeny's home in Westchester- shire for the weekend. Wire my thanks and acceptance, or- dered Tod to Jarvis, and then he continued to himself, by Jove, maybe I can borrow the dough to get myself out of this mess from Ralph. As the late afternoon train pushed lazily along towards Westchestershire, Tod began to think about his boyhood. He and Ralph had been great pals then, so much so, in fact, that when Ralph's parents were drowned on Ralph's tenth birthday, Tod had persuaded his father to adopt Ralph. For many years the boys had played and fought side by side in a friendship that knew no bounds. They had separated when Ralph married lovely Margery Henderson, and went to Brazil on his honeymoon. Later Tod heard that Blakeny had become fas- cinated with the South American country, and was planning an expedition into its wilds to obtain some rare animals for Q1 museum. Westchestershire, next stop! shouted the conductor, interrupting Tod's wander- ing thoughts. As Tod stepped from the train he was met by a man in livery who asked if he was Mr. Morton. Upon receiving Tod's answer to the question in the affirmative, the man said he was Mr. Blakeny's chauffeur, and that the car was waiting. When the big. expensive car approached the Blakeny home. which set on the summit of a small hill, surrounded by long, sloping lawns, Tod noticed something very queer about the house. The grounds were literally covered with cats! Cats of all sizes and shades slept or played on the lawns and porches of the house. When Tod looked at Margery as she came to greet him at the door, he could scarcely recognize her as the same girl at whose wedding he had acted as best man. She had been young and radiant then: now she was worn and frail. Her voice betrayed her bitterness. Shortly after he had entered the house, Ralph joined them and helped him arrange his things. , After dinner, Ralph said, I'll show you the prize of my collection, a Brazilian Cat. It is the only one in captivity in the whole world. During dinner, Ralph was called to an- swer a 'phone call. As soon as he had left. Margery, who had heretofore been strangely silent, spoke suddenly. Tod, she whispered, if you vlaue your life at all, you will take the first train back to London. Just as she was finishing, Ralph came in and apparently had overheard the whole thing, because he called Margery out of the room, and when they returned. Tod could see that she had been crying. Tod decided to stay and find out what was at the bot- tom of all this mystery, but resolved at the same time to he on his guard. When dinner was finished, his host took Tod on a tour of the house, keeping up a rapid-fire conversation about his travels all the time, and evidently very much excited about something. Now, Tod, Ralph said, when they had finished their tour, l'll show you some- thing that vou will never see again-the one'and only pure-bred Brazilian Cat in captivity. They went down to the basement, and then walked through a long tunnel, which Blakeny explained was underground, until they came to a large, massive iron door. 93 There they stopped while Ralph turned one of the two large iron cranks which protrud- ed from the wall of the tunnel. The door silently slid open and revealed a large, square room, whose only source of light was a single barred window in the ceiling. The only furniture in the room was a long, narrow cage, in which Was confined a large, vicious looking cat, jet black-with burning eyes which seemed to penetrate the darkness. As Tod instinctively drew back, Ralph laughed and induced him to approach nearer the cage. to watch the antics of the animal, who was evidently hungry and endeavoring to find more food in the straw which was littered over the bottom of his cage. I see that he is hungry, Ralph re- marked, and I think I'll get him some- thing to eat. Wait here for a minute, will you, and I'll be right back. As he left the room he reached over to the side of the door and snapped a switch. Laughing softly, he quickly closed the door. To Tod's horror and amazement, the door of the cage, which was evidently con- trolled by the switch that Ralph had thrown on, opened, and the massive cat slowly came out of the cage and began prowling around the room. Fascinated with the sight, and frozen with fear, Tod could only watch as the cat, spying him, slowly neared him. It seemed to Tod that the animal became more or less friendly, and its features seemed less formidable as he looked more closely at it. The cat playfully jumped up on Tod. and in doing so, slipped and scratched Tod's hand. Tasting the blood which escaped from the wound the cat suddenly changed into a ferocious, raging animal, and drew back to spring at Tod. Tod jumped lightly to the top of the cage, and as the cat sprang, he stepped aside and the cat went right over the top. Realiz- ing the feline quality of being able to reach its mark on the second try, Tod attempted to get into the cage and close the door. Just as he slammed the door to, the big cat lunged at him, and Tod fell unconscious to the floor of the cage. The next thing he knew, Tod found him- self in a room that was, without doubt, in a hospital. Trying to raise himself, he found that he was unable to do so. Just then he heard Margery speaking to him, and as he lay back on his pillows she told him CContinued on Page 965 The Classical of 2200 By ALICE COLLIER AND WILLIAM DAROU As I gaze into the crystal ball of the fu- ture, I see a hemisphere within the orb, for the city of Providence is enclosed in a huge glass cone, somewhat like a gigantic in- verted bowl. This outer wall is six miles in diameter, and extends towards the heavens for three miles. The temperature is con- stantly maintained at a comfortable level: thus the entire city is air-conditioned. The artificial suns take the place of Old Sol, with all of his advantages, and none of his detri- ments. The school, for there is only one school, since everything is centralized, is an im- mense glass building, honey-combed with horizontal and vertical lifts. The name of the school, Classical, is somewhat of a mis- nomer in this age, but is retained because of the traditions associated with the scholas- tic and sports acumen acquired by the school of that name 'way back in the l940's. Each teacher specializes in one subiect. and only one subject is taught on each floor. The control-room is the center of activity. From this point, the professor's voice, phy- sical appearance, and personality are project- ed to the various rooms by means of per- fected television. Special emphasis is placed on the sciences, particularly the science of every-day life. The dead languages, also French, German, Italian, etc., are taught to a select few whose lives are devoted to keep- ing unbroken man's record of history. American has, of course, become the univer- sal language. The pupil of the year 2200 wakes promptly at eight o'clock, because his sub- conscious mind has been so trained that on retiring he willed himself to do so. After making his toilet, our oupil downs his food- ration for the day. The meal consists of a glass of pepzoid and a bar of vitamic, the new food concentrates. Instead of using the compressed air-tubes, he ascends to the roof, climbs into his atomic energy flyer, sets the controls to Classical , flicks the power lever, and is at the school in a minute. The school day is divided into periods as fol- lows: theory, current events, practical arts and sciences, and physical education. In the morning, while the pupils are alert and enthusiastic, they are drilled in the math- ematical basis of modern science. The whole school silently solves problems in calculus. logarithm, etc.,-as a teacher in the control- room reels off the daily assignment. Each pupil checks his own solutions on his brain- wave machine. This gadget completely ob- viates the use of the corrector's pencil. The pupil merely holds the handles of the ma- chine as he thinks out his problem. When he errs in his calculations, a red light flashes. If his solution is correct, a green light glows. After the theory period is over, an hour is devoted to news. Bulletins of the events of the previous night are read from the con- trol office. If an interesting debate is tak-- ing place in a parliament anywhere in the world, the television is tuned to it. Next come practical arts and sciences. In- stead of domestic science courses which were once given, the boys attend chemistry class- es. Here they are taught the art of separat- ing the nourishment value of foods from their waste structure, and turning it into vitamic bars and pepzoid. The girls' period is devoted to the creative arts. This period takes in designing, as well as construction. All the necessary implements of every-day life are constructed of transparent cellulose. and the girls learn to mold this material into furniture, etc. One-third of the school day is devoted to physical education, for Classical must rc- main sports champion of the Western Hemi- sphere. In this period atmospheric swimming is especially stressed. The sports period ends at two o'clock, and our pupil is through for the day. That ancient dread, homework, has been eliminated. But now my crystal ball grows cloudy. The hemisphere is gradually fading. Nothing but a commonplace orb remains. 95 Awakenings By EDWARD HUNT The group gathered about the stove seemed wholly at peace with the world, but the only really contented persons were the children-the two youngest engrossed in their game of mumble-peg, and John, a lad of fourteen, far away in Ancient Rome with Gibbons. The parents were ill-at-ease. Mary, a thin, neat, somewhat faded woman, knitted quickly and well, but betrayed an inner unrest by an occasional twitch of her thin lips and by covert glances at her hus- band, who sat opposite. That worthy, a short, dandyish sort of man, continually dabbed a pinch of snuff up his nose. A rather large pinch nearly choked him, and waked him violently from his revery. He dragged a ponderous gold watch from its fob, and looked at it. His Voice, when he spoke, was that of a cultured Irishman- rich, deep. All right, babies, to bed with you. The two tots hastened off, and their mother stopped knitting to look at her eld- est son. She spoke with the nasal twang of a rustic: You, too, John. You must be up early to-morrow. Nay, Mary, interposed the father, let the lad read if he wants to. 'Tis good that he should want to-knowledge does no harm. -The son resumed his reading upon this vindication, but Mary sensed the slur upon her own ignorance and did not let it pass unchallenged. All her pent-up bitterness came forth. You-you, with all your bookish Ways, what did knowledge do for you! You can- not plow the furrow, but you must stop to watch the worms you turn up. You can- not milk the cow but be kicked by it. And you can't even reckon money. To think you How to Take I am setting out on a noble enterprise: I am about to emulate many other writers. I am about to write upon a subject of which let that cheating drummer gull you so eas- ily out of two dollars. And your children needing shoes. What a farmer you are! Her husband listened, unmoved, to this tirade and then answered her gently. I must acknowledge, Mary, that when it comes to iigures you are my better. Of course, in higher mathematics, algebra, or geometry .... Ah, but let it rest. Do you go to bed also, Mary: you look worn. The woman left the room without further words. After she had gone, her husband rose, stretched, and smiled whimsically at his son. Your mother doesn't favor education, lad, but she is keen in other ways. And we know we're right, don't we? John had never quite realized, till now, the gulf that separated his parents. He had known his mother nagged occasionally, but he had never listened or thought much about it. Now he remembered many little scenes that seemed unimportant when they oc- curred: the time he had seen his mother cry- ing over a spilled milk-pail: the time he had seen his mother in the field getting in the hay before it rained: the time he had seen his father loll for four hours under the apple tree reading-all these scenes took an added significance. The son heard at last what his father was saying, and answered him slowly. No-no, We're not right, father. Mother, though uneducated, is bright and busy all day long and you-no, We're not right. Good night, sir! The father gazed after the boy's retreat- ing form, thunderstruck. Then he moved with wavering steps to the cupboard, and took out a dark bottle and a glass. With shaking hand he filled the glass to the brim, then downed the whiskey at a gulp. My God! he muttered. Care of Guppies Iknow nothing. Since I know nothing about it. I am an authority on the subject. How? Well, it's this way: I know some- 96 thing about nothing. I keep knowing more and more about less and less. Thus I end up by knowing everything about nothing. And certainly if you've ever seen guppies, you'll admit that they are nothing to look at. Now, having thoroughly convinced you that I do not know what I am talking about, I shall proceed to enlighten you on the Care of Guppies and How to Keep Them. Before continuing, however, let me refer you to a much more able authority on gup- pies, dogs, cats, and ducks Calthough there is no one more able than I in the case of all excluding ducks, cats, dogs, and guppiesj. namely, Mrs. Piche. If I were Rube Gold- berg, I would diagram the exact proceedings. If I were a Dickens, or a Hawthorne, I would describe the methods used. But, since I am neither an artist nor such an author, I shall merely try. It is thoroughly essential that a large- sized gold-fish bowl be secured. Prepare the bowl as if for gold-fish, but don't put any in. In order to keep all your guppies happy, which you shall, when instructed to, place in the bowl, put Hfteen dozen in the gold- fish receptacle in the following manner: take all the guppies in your right hand while you place the bowl on a large table. Now, put your right hand 32 inches above the bowl. With your left hand drop the guppies, one by one, into the container. If they die, they can't take it: so throw them away. There will be several dozen guppies of a stronger constitution left who will live through this terrifying ordeal. Now place the bowl on a one-legged stand. The guppies will feel themselves falling to one side. They will swim in a circle, since the bowl is circular, to the other side, then, feeling themselves falling again, they will swim back to the other side. This will keep up forever and thus produce equilibrium, since centrifugal and centripetal force will be overcome. As to feeding: You will supply the gup- pies with sufficient nutrition if you merely feed them hamburgers: but if you wish to have really healthy, robust guppies, feed them fried liver and onions. Other important instructions as to feed- ing: When feeding, stand twenty feet away from the bowl. Throw the food into the mouth of the bowl. Be sure, under all cir- cumstances, to give the guppies large chunks of food. This is important. Be sure to change their element daily, but be sure, also, that the water is szalding hot. When you put the guppies to sleep at night, round a quarter to nine , be careful about tucking them in, as the centrifugal and cen- tripetal equilibrium must be maintained. Remember the foregoing points, namely: procure a large gold-fish bowl without gold- fish: throw the guppies into the bowl from a height of 32 inches: place the bowl on a one-legged stand, being sure to maintain centrifugal and centripetal equilibrium: throw the guppies' food into the bowl: give the guppies large chunks of food: and tuck them in at night. If these instructions are carried out to the letter, you will have happy, healthy guppies. If you haven't much luck the first time, try again. If then you don't succeed, my last word to you is-try raising octopussies. By LEWIS I. SHWARTZ The Brazilian Cat CContinued from Page 935 the tragic story of Ralph's contraction of a fever, which had warped his mind, and of the loss of all his money. She explained that Ralph, with insane cunning, had plot- ted to have Tod killed, as if accidentally by the calt, in order to become the beneficiary of the estate of Tod's uncle, who was also Ralph's uncle by marriage. When he inquired about Ralph, Tod was told that he had been killed by the cat, who, eating his first taste of blood, had become a carnivorous killer. After he learned of Ralph's tragic end. Tod was only too glad to lie back and muse on his good fortune in hav- ing escaped so miraculously the horrible death that would have been his fate. 97 The House of the Seven Gazebos The old Bilgepump house stood on the upper side of Well Street, just above what is now the Boys' Club. Captain Bilgepump, master of the barkentine Rivermud , little thought when he built it in 1798 that it would survive to see the then busy wharves rotting to pieces over stagnant mud, or that the teeming, bulging warehouses would be- come but unrecollected memories. Other years have passed since the little old house shone newly white in the sun against the steep hill, windows sparkling, curtains glis- tening, resplendent in new paint and furni- ture. It was perhaps not an ideal location even then when the old captain bought it for the ridiculously low sum of one pound for the three acres comprising the estate. The hill is so steep that a horse and buggy could not climb up the rutty track to Benefit Street: it was all a horse could do to climb the lower, more gentle half, from South Main street up. Thus the old captain made one mistake, he built where he was hard to reach, for who wanted to run his horse over to go down from above, or strain his tendons unduly by pulling from below? Not that visitors weren't welcome, for the house was full at the captain's house-warming, and again at his daughter's marriage in 1813, to a dashing young army captain. The 'ARivermud caught fire one squally March morning, and only by the greatest and most heroic endeavors of the townsfolk was she towed, still blazing, down the river to the flats below Fort Hill, out of danger for the town. Here she burned to the water's edge. The shock was nearly fatal to the old captain: all his money was invested in the vessel and cargo, and both were a total loss, with no insurance. The loss of this vessel, for twenty years the home of Captain Bilge- pump during his voyages, is said to have af- fected his mind: at any rate, in 1819, after a few years of deeper and deeper debt, the house was sold by order of the sheriff, and Captain Bilgepump found himself in the street. His wife. unused to the inclemencies of the weather without a roof over her head, caught pneumonia, and died within a week. This second shock definitely affected the mind of the captain, who, when he realized that his wife's death was caused, indirectly, by the loss of his house, became insane. So deep was his feeling of injustice that he de- liberately broke into his former house one night, and, overcoming the new owner and his wife in their bed, tied them up. He then, with the kindling axe, brutally cut off the ears of his innocent victim and his wife, and nailed them to the mantelpiece. The victims' servant, hearing a shriek, slipped out a back window and waked the neighbors, who en- tered to find the captain, who had beaten a point on the ramrod of his victim's gun, just in the act of withdrawing it from the hearts of his victims, whom he had placed back to back. The brutal murder of this innocent couple was avenged by the staid judges of the city, and the Bilgepump house again came on sale. Just about this time a Captain Bludskill arrived in the neighboring taverns, reeking of money, and wishing to settle somewhere where it was not more than a few steps to a tavern, and Cso gossip has itj, only a pace or two from the Devil! The empty Bilgepump house exactly fitted his need, and he became its possessor. Bludskill was only a little better than Bilgepump in his last days, for he nearly broke the arm of a small boy whom he caught listening outside his door one night. Nay, more, he threw the poker so hard at his dog, who insisted on growling all one stormy, blustery, cold De- cember evening in 1820, that he completely impaled the poor beast, who died in great pain. The next morning the villain was found lying on the stairs with his throat cut from ear to ear. Whether it was an enemy gained through misdeeds in another clime, or whether it was done by his own hand was never proved. The watchman of the Rico Molasses Co. claims, however, to have seen a tremendously large black-cloaked man stride up out of the foaming bay, and vanish up the dark alley of Power street, returning in a few moments forcibly propelling an un- willing man, of about Bludskill's size and description, down the street. The watchman 98 swears, moreover, that the pair passed through two fences and a tree and disappeared back into the bay. Be that as it may, the Bilgepump house again became untenanted. It remained this way for ten years, gradu- ally succumbing to the wind and weather, until one Portugee Pete bought it and con- verted it into a tavern, where only the most vile liquors were sold. In short, this once respectable house Went from bad to worse, becoming by successive degrees lower and more vile until Portugee Pete's place be- came a synonym for vileness in our fair city. None of the ordinary drunks would go there, as there was a story circulated that many went in, but few came out. Finally the citizens raised a hue and cry when Pistilla Smith, one of the fairest girls of the day, was waylaid and brutally beaten as she passed along Benefit street. Some- body had to be the victim of the indignant citizens. Portugee Pete's place was raided and confiscated, and Portugee Pete went the way of Captain Bilgepump. Three of Portugee Pete's customers were found dead and partially rotting in the dank cellar of the old house. Two more expired at the shock of fresh air when they were removed, and the rest served Various terms in jail. The liquor was confiscated. The police chief is said to have caused it to be poured into the river, which is said to be one reason why the mud of its banks is so particularly obnoxious to fastidious noses. The Bilgepump house was by this time looked on with horror by all who knew its story. During the twenty years in which it continued to stand, no one, with the possible exception of boys who were intent on dam- age, entered the house. Indeed, the gruesome stories told about the deaths of the second couple to live there, the death of Bludskill, and of the patrons of Portugee Pete would have kept such strong spirits as our present- day politicians out. I well remember the evening in June when two of my friends and I went to explore the dismal old place, as the result of a triple dare . We climbed in the window which, tradition has it, is the one the servant crawled out to warn the neighbors of Bilgepump's last visit. and found ourselves in a little low- studded room, bare, with plaster lying in fragments on the floor, marvelous festoons of dusty black cobwebs hanging from the ceil- ing, the floor incredibly covered with dust, the dim light making weird shadows in the corners. The door opened into a narrow hall, with a flight of rickety stairs leading down, and a broken ladder leading to the attic. The house, built against the hill, was thus two and one half stories high on one side, and one and one half on the other. The stair railings, of delicate spindling where they re- mained, bespoke the taste of the house's builder. Across the hall, two rooms similar to the first, moulded mustily in the dank air. The front door, at the bottom of the stairs. was dented and scarred by numberless hard blows. The barroom opened at one side, disclosing the still undismantled pine bar, much fallen plaster, and the same delicate intricacy of spider's lace that shrouded the whole house. Across the hall, the dim kitchen was hid by a rickety but beautifully panelled door, half-unhinged. The old man- tel where Bilgepump is said to have nailed his victims' ears, was half broken down, probably through the agency of small boys. The wide fireplace and Dutch oven seemed on the verge of crumbling away through misuse. The floor had ,been hacked up and scored by the flanges of countless liquor casks en route to the cellar. Behind both the kitchen and barroom were identical cellar storerooms, musty, unfloored, dark, and smelly. The night fell at about this time, and, our boyish nerves having reached the breaking point, we dashed to the fresh air, pursued by all sorts of horrible ghosts. Not many weeks later, the old house was pulled down, thus ending its sinister history. Although almost everyone felt that the ghost-population of Providence was depleted by its removal, and were glad, I was sorry to see it go. It seemed like the last stronghold of mystery and witchcraft to me. It suggested Mystery, Ro- mance. Pear, and Tragedy to me, and I still love to dream of its delicate, mutilated chair- acter.
