We are not unmindful of your sacrifices to give us this foundation, which we need as an incentive and stepping-stone to further knowledge. We hope that the years and sacrifices have not been in vaing that through devotion to Work and duty, we may in some small measure repay you. Too often, We pupils, have regard-ed you, our teachers, merely as instructors and have lost sight of your human interest and influence. It is only now, when our high school life is ending, that we 'begin to estimate your untiring efforts on our behalf, your ready help when needed, your sympathy and understanding when the paths to knowledge were beset with obstacles. Therefore, we also wish to thank you, who have been so considerable a factor in our success. Classmates, let us continue to build upon the foundation which the industry of our parents and teachers has made possible. Let us bear in mind that there is no royal road to learning, that the way to success is strewn with difficulties to be overcome, with disappointments to be endured. We may often have to prove that gaining victory from defeat is the test that tries us, but we may also have the satisfaction of knowing that we are not alone in our ambitions, that, The heights by great men, reach-cd and kept, Were not attained by sudden flight, But they, while their companions slept, Were toiling upward in the night. Teachers, parents, and friends, the Class of 1929 cordially welcomes you to its Class Day exercises. f13l MARGARET ATWOOD, Histowlan Class History MARGARE.T A'rwooD N the fall of '25, a strange incident occurred in Worcester. Every aspirant to admis- sion at Classical High was seized with sleeping sickness. But most remarkable of all was the fact that everybody dreamt the same dream for the same length of time. They suddenly found themselves across the River Styx, and inhabitants of the Lower World, due to the partiality of Charon, the ferry-man, who, making them wait but two months, finally took them all across in one boatlo-ad. At first it was rather difficult to become accustomed to the gloomy surroundings, for gloomy they were, indeed, at the entrance of this region. For a time they strug- gled on, now through mud and marshy waters, and, again, through pastures broad and beautiful. At length they all found themselves seated in a great auditorium, and confronted by Pluto's embassies. Trials were held, punishments and rewards dealt out according to the judgment passed, and everyone was sent on his way. Some fates were happier than others, for Hades was divided into many sections, some most allur- ing, others fearful and awful. Pluto, the king of these realms, had many assistants, but those who were outstand- ing, namely, the three Furies, O'Regan, Howland, and Cook, were his very right-hand men. Their duty it was to execute his commands. The most furious of these, Mr. O'Regan, was placed in charge of a room called Locus Librorum for the first few hours of each Tartarean day. Here he received all late arrivals and other spirits whose conduct, although bad, might have been worse. For the remainder of the day this same Fury held sway in another locality called the office, where culprits, whose crimes were exceptionally appalling, were chastised. The sentence for such as these was either a temporary punishment in a neighboring room under Fury Howland's regime, or else perpetual torment in the hands of lesser officials, whose duty and pleasure it was to extend the torture by forwarding a note to the spirit's sleeping' quarters-a note with one significant letter thereon- D -thus insuring nightly inflictions, too. The third and last Fury was far milder than either of her two brothers, for she was the great Recorder. In her hands lay the past histories of every spirit, good or f15l feoorofssssrco CNfll5Xi'5lflQ'lQfi1S Q5 xy' 3 bad. By some she was dreaded and hated, but by many she was loved-especially by those who dwelt in Elysium, the land of the blessed. This place was the most desirable of all sections in the world below. Here spark- ling rivers fiowed through green meadows, and trees with gayly colored leaves bedecked the landscape. No sorrow cast its shadow in these realms. Moreover, with the arrival of this latest boatload, a new invention had been introduced into these fields. Electric lights brightened the hitherto dim atmosphere and added to the gaiety of the spot. Rightly did the bill-board here read: Land of the Fortunate. Motto: Be good and you'll be happy, and you may have some fun. The Fields of Elysium were not a place of inactivity, for straightway Spirits Farmer, John Davis, Irving Solomon, and Don Anderson, and Spiritesses Kay Thurs- ton and Celia Nadler rushed to a great clearing they spied, and there proceeding to jump, and run, and hit big and little balls about until finally they were awarded the title, f'OAutstanding Athletes. Four more, Spirits Regan and Collins and Spiritesses White and Power, whose names were one day shouted from the housetops, became the duces of the group. Under their leadership for a Tartarean year, the spirits fiourished and grew fat for the most part. A Senatus called Hi YH was organized for the spirits of the highest moral standing, and a Girl Reserve Councilium for their sisters. For a time all went well. Then the duces retired and four more took their places. This time John Power, Eleanor Berger, Ethel Clarkson, and Ed Collins became rulers. Under their guidance, a Junior Ambulation or prom was entered upon successfully, and it brought great social and financial returns. Three-quarters of the dream was spent. The best was yet ahead, for after How- arth, Kay Thurston, Sis Clarkson, and Butler had been chosen duces for the last quarter, great deeds were done. First of all, a guidebook for Hades was published, explaining most concisely all the important facts concerning the departments of the underworld. About the same time, delegates were sent to a conclave known as the National Assembly of Student Council Members, where Spiritess Clarkson was honored with the title of Secretary for this body. One important event crowded upon another. The Bacchantic Festival was celebrated by a cotillion, dance, and two pro- ductions in the great theatre, one of which was purely drama, and the other a form of opera, Lend Me Five Shillings, Cricket on the Hearth, and Way Down South in Dixie were better, if possible, than Hazel Kirke and Peggy and the Pirates of E161 gg ,T ' ' ' W 'M' 'Y ' f 77,-XS-Y , Y if 5l'f:-,LQf fgif' iw CLJASSX Q3 0 KQ5 Q Mi Yojgmiies we Em ,,,,,,,.m,,..iiTI, Y'-' ,Wi f Y' -XXX.-lf , ',Q fi'-'W Y W? ,,',,,.

A luxurious feast called the Senior Banquet, given in honor of these departing shades by the greatest Epicure in Hades capped the climax, and went off with such a bang that every last boy and girl who had crossed the Styx four years before with the ferryman, Charon, woke from his sleep and found himself on earth again, after what seemed no more than five minutes of dreamland, although in reality, it was four years. And now, '29 rubs her eyes, reflects happily on the past with all its work as well as its picnics, and eagerly awaits the future, trusting that a new Elysium may be in store for her. l17l JOHN J. POWER, JR., Class Owztor Class ration A VOCATION FOR ALL OF US JOHN J. POWER, JR. HE Fathers of this nation have placed participation in our government on a high level. To share in that government, to which all of us must come, not many years hence, we young Americans should bring some forethought. It is in a compre- hension of the spirit, in an understanding of the purpose of our national principles that our usefulness as future citizens lies. Even our earliest lessons in history assure us that the foundation of Americanism is liberty. To guarantee that liberty, that the right of the many might never be made subject to the tyranny of the few, the Consti- tution was drawn up. In the very act of that creation, political parties proved their usefulness, and made themselves the mode of the individual American's functioning in the political life of this nation. Through these political parties, the people of the cities and of the countrysides are brought into closer relationship with one another. In the all important issues of farm relief, control of water power, tariff, and other economic questions, political divisions are natural. Each party presents its views on public questions so that voters are able to cast intelligently their ballots for the party which in their minds is deserving of support. Public interest in and public discussion of government principles, which the party system fosters, periodically decide political control so that the existence of politi- cal parties, although not provided for by the Constitution, acts as a system of checking and balancing, which is one of the norms of the Constitution. A general steadying of government has been brought about by the existence of political parties. The majority party by election to oflice has been -granted an authori- tative solidity as a result of which the members are entrusted with the reins of gov- ernment. Opportunity for progressive legislation is granted to the popular majority. Having been vested with proper authority, an organized co-operative unit proceeds E191 Q......llT4.i,..T1T,...f,..L...,...., T f-- W osx!! ,, , ,, ,T 1i'i..i.r. ,W Q , , 1 -Q with the fortunes of a nation under its jurisdiction. Yet in n-o sense must the election mandate be considered permanent. Freedom from the possible tyranny of the major- ity is one of the main provisions of our science of government. To quote Thomas Jefferson: t'All, too, will bear in mind this sacred principle, that, though the will of the majority is in all cases to prevail, that Will, to be rightful, must be reasonable, that the minority p-ossess their equal rights, which equal law must protect, and to violate would be oppression. The equal rights of the minority is one of the greatest functions of the Constitution. It is a guarantee of the freedom of the individual. Its safeguard is the party system. Present day competition between the political parties demands the utmost efiiciency in our government. After legislative bills have been discussed and passed by the House of Representatives, and Senate, the President may sign or veto the bill. After this due procedure, if the majority party persists in passing unpopular, disadvan- tageous, tyrannical legislation, it is the duty and the privilege of the minority to offer a solution of the problem. Today We retain freed-om of religion, freedom of the press, the privilege of voting for representatives, the privilege of trial by jury, partly because this is a democracy divided into political parties. Such a democracy is a leadership freely chosen and freely changing. The ardent desire to preserve leadership by the use of solid prin- ciples of righteousness is the result of our political party system. The majority party realizes full well that it must preserve, strengthen, and wherever possible improve our government. The force of competition, the fear of the loss of leadership, and the conse- quent subjection to the minority are high incentives in the furtherance of good govern- ment. It will not, perhaps, be given to many of us to share actively in the executive or legislative functions of government. But it is given to all of us by active membership in a party to help mold party principles, to advance social legislation, to endorse reput- able office-seekers. Too often the American citizen accepts rather than chooses his party, no matter what principles it endorses, nor what type of candidates it presents, l2l0l , , ,ffx,Y Y Y , ,, . W., 7-72.1 2 -T ,Z , fb ss lm s W ---W is as s ml-I-l-M--, merely because allegiance to that party has become a family custom. Until the right of suierage is recognized as an individual responsibility, until the party in turn is held strictly responsible to its members, the active participation in a democratic form of government, which the Fathers envisioned, can never be a reality. In our hands and those of thousands of other future American voters rest the opportunity and the privilege. E 21 l LEIGHTON JACKSON, Class Prophet Class Prophecy LE1oH'roN JACKSON ERE we are in 1950, and yet I still hear about the class of 19239. Just last month I received a letter from Wes Goddard who is living in Seattle. In it he tells me of some of my old classmates and if I can find it, I'll read it to you. Ah! Here it is. OFFICE OF MAYOR SEATTLE, WASI-IINGTO'N January 21, 1950. Dear Bud : From your last letter I judged that you wanted to know something about the mem- bers of the Class of '29, who are in Washington. Right here, in Seattle, lives t'Larry Hescock, who is Superintendent of Mixed Matrimonial Muddles and he certainly does a rushing business. Don Anderson is foreman of District 45's road gang and has charge -of filling in air pockets and smoothing out the bumps so that our transcontinen- tal expresses may move through the air more smoothly. Charlie Booth runs one of the aerial gas stations and his assistants, Leo Burwick, Charles Davis, Robert King, and Thomas McCarthy, grease up the planes from f'Flivver to Liner, using special suits which suspend them in the air. Mary Balkose has charge of the lunchroom and Bernard Alisauskas and Margaret Briggs float on table. Maggie Bridgham has a large home a few miles out of town, called 'tThe Wrecks' Rest and employs Lewis Houghton as her caretaker. Just at present Helen Bush, who sideswiped a plane because a fellow made eyes at her, and Phil Butler, who is recuperating from his last acting tour on the huge Diesel-Driven Drama Liner, are the most interesting patients. Catherine Fogarty works in the kitchen and, I understand, serves up some wonderful UD meals. Gustav Steinhilber, who you remember was quite a 'fsharkn in Science at Classical, heads our scientific department and has just made an important discovery about the five and one-sixth dimension. Homer Rich is editor of the Seattle Sizzle the got his experience typing this prophecyb, and Evelyn Grace conducts the f'Sentimental Sobs column. Just the other day I met Daniel Casale on the street and after talking with him for a few minutes, I learned that he owns a huge Chinese home-made food factory. Claire Martin is his t'Household Hint Helper and Charles Jaffe, Abraham Jonas, and Garrett Connor are three of his French chefs. As for myself, being Mayor of Seattle suits me the received his training being president of the Student Councilj and I certainly hope you'll fiy over from Worcester some afternoon and have dinner with us. As ever, 'tWES. l23l .J LLL, ,LW 1 , ,,-I ,,, ,,,,,,, ,, , Y, W is Qmassssrg 0 Q w . - U I , I also have a letter her-e from Ed Collins. You know he is working as Official Liner Caller at the New York Grand Central Air Terminal. fHow I remember that senior meeting when we voted him the biggest talker in the class.J NEW YORK GRAND CENTRAL AIR TERMINAL NEW YORK, N. Y. February 15, 1950. Dear Bud : Yesterday I happened to run into 'tJohnny Keenan, who owns this terminal and immediately we began to discuss some of our old classmates. He tells me that John Davis is now a famous air athlete the always was quite an athlete at Classicalh, and has participated in many cross-country jumps, using, of course, the standard jumping belts. 'tDick Downes is now running a thriving airplane business, selling the UShiv- erless Six. Louis Karaku is on the private police force here at the terminal. You remember that he held the line at Classical? Well, he does it here, but he holds on to one of the liners instead of the opposing team. Donald MacDonald runs a joke con- cern specializing in free advice for a small feef' John 0'Connor is also working at the Terminal picking up papers and replacing the turf where the landing anchors have dragged. Among our mechanics are David Milliken, Arthur Prince, Francis Hobbs, and Charles Kabaker, who are crackerjacks. As I witnessed a banquet of technical men last night I thought I recognized Freddy McIntyr-e's voice and sure enough there he was telling somebody about his Lincoln Liner. It seems that he had just sold his old one. No, it wasn't the one that he drove when at Classical. You know that Harrison Dockray is here? Yes, he is one of our announcers on my staff. He has just finished making a record and is known as the t'Whispering Serenaderf' Adam Kosciusko has just returned from an expedition to Africa the shot a Wildcat back in 19285. The two Magee brothers, Albert and John were his interpreters, specializing in German. 'tSherm Leonard arrived in town a few days ago, he has just returned from his twenty-fifth tour of the World, jumping backward. That is really about all that I know of in New York and if I hear of any- thing more I'll drop you a line. A Officially yours, EDWARD COLLINS. Of course you all remember Mary Perkins and especially her shock of hair. It seems that she owns an Aerial Circus and a side-show and it is called The Greatest Show on Air. Mary is the main exhibit in the side-show, displaying her long, wavy tresses, a thing unknown at this time, and receiving the Oh's, and Ah's of the crowds. Her sister, Isabel, is business manager fwe know she got her experience 'way back in 19219 on the CLASSIC MYT'HS BoardJ and certainly Hpullsl' in the Hdoughf' But here is a letter from Mary. I'll read it to you. i241 C7 Y Mm ,Y ,,,,-, Y -Y ,J ..,.,, WL. Y . ,W . ,.f':s , , W.

Every seat is taken and some are floating above the bleachers. I suppose you would like to hear about some of our classmatesfso here goes. In the first place my ringmaster is our former class president, George Howarth. At school he always threw a good line and he simply overdoes himself in his present position. Moco Furman has expanded to great dimensions and at present is the 'tOnly Human Being Alive Who Tips the Scales at One Thousand, One Hundred and Twenty-five and Three-quarters p-oundsf' attract- ing most of the crowd in my sideshow. Agnes Forman is also in my band of freaks, being the only woman who can play twenty-five different musical instruments, all at the same time. Isaiah Ginsberg is the artist of the crowd. Using a special vaccuum cleaner he makes pictures in the sawdust on the ground. The Biamesese twins consist of Alice Jacques and Betty Scott. Lawrence Seal, who is town constable here in Bushwhack, came over to see me this morning. I gave him two complimentary tickets as I knew he was looking for them and then he told me of a few of our classmates. In the Bushwhack aerial depart- ment are Herman Schulman, right and left top sergeant, Irving Solomon, chairman of His Honor's Hospitaible Homecoming Committee, and Arleen Ryan, who does all the sketching for the advertisements, booming Bushwhack as the Hbigger, better, and more modernistic town. Carl Sundstrom, Sunshine as we knew him, has become a hermit. It seems that he, believing that ladies prefer blondes, tried to hug a nice, young lady, got his face slapped, both eyes blackened, nose broken, and to climax all was thrown out of the thirteenth story. So now Sunshine is off women forever, and lives all by his lonesom-e in the desert. It is said that the young lady was Ruth Jenks, Agnes Falvey, or Mary Deviny. Betty Gabriel is the owner of the NBefore and After beauty shop, and so I hear, does a remarkable revamping job. Helen Halpin stopped there on her way back to her husband in Mexico City and when she arrived home her husband did not recog- nize her. It is said Victoria Smith was the one who did this renovating. However, Percy Decker who is my doorman, doing all the talking and not working very hard, has just announced that I have fifteen minutes before the show opens and so I must say good by. I am still, MARY NOBLE PERKINS. Somewhere in this pile I have a letter from Bill Regan. He has started a home for Inactive Athletes up on Mars. They say he is doing a fine business and gets quite a few ex-Classical athletes. But, I'll read his letter. I25l il-3::::::::::::::::t:1:1:g::::i::..

Dear Bud : I have just finished reading your request for news about any of the class of '29. Of course you know I own the Home for Inactive Athletes. Well, just at present, Ed Farmer is one of my patients. In his last pole vaulting match, he glided to earth on his face and has com-e up here to recuperate. Down the street a bit Franny', Hickey has a large aeroland garage and does a thriving business repairing all makes of air craft and he even will repair an automobile-although I cannot understand how he knows anything about Automobiles 'tSammy Joseph, the retired stamp magnate has a palatial home on the other side of the planet. It seems that he made an excel- lent collection of stamps while at Classical, later sold them for a fabulous sum, and now thinks that he is way above everybody else. Francis Wisniewski conducts a scientific laboratory and has collected much valuable data relative to the Why, Wherefore, and How of the Action of the Flea. Adolph Zalansky owns and operates the Central Power Station on Mars, sending out electric rays which are picked up and used for light, heat, and power. Stanislaus Bulak is a t'big man up here on Marsg he has charge of all the canines at night because a metro-law has been passed ordering all dogs to be put in one special place and Stanislaus sees to their wants and needs, even singing lullabies if his charges cannot get to sleep. The largest department store on Mars, 7215 stories high, is managed by Arthur Goldberg, its owner, and is advertised as selling Goldberg's Good Goods. 'tConnie Maher specializes in t'Seeing your future in my dreams QI guess he is finishing the nap he started at Classicalj. Eddie Keenan runs the Gypmore Restaurant and employs as waiters, Lambi Adams, Joseph Wack- ell, Joseph Kamandulis and Stanley Zielinski who specialize in t'Kind, Courteous, and Careful Catering. Alan Mitchell is also up here, he followed in his father's foot- steps and at present is lecturing about 'fThe Blessedness of Living on Mars. As you probably realize by now, Mars is for bachelors, poorly treated husbands fBernard Nelson is one of themj and widowers who have lost their last cent. Constant Paulukonis, so I understand had an altercation with his wife fshe objected to his inhaling soupj and has just arrived for a brief visit. Bennie Zarr has also left his wife because she insisted that he shave his beard at least once every week. Solomon Tashlitsky runs a drug store, or chemist quarters as we call it, specializing' in all types of remedies for bruised husbands and Francis Madden, our former orator, is his heavi- est buyer, coming up each Monday morning' for repairs. Each Sunday he wears out his voice explaining to his wife why he did not come home the night before. That is about all the news I can scrape up now, but if I get any more, you'll hear it. Aerially yours, WILLIAM RE GAN. t'Eddie Aranovitz wrote to me just last fall and I am sure you'll want to hear his story. Le voici! I-261 1-I . V. .,,.,r,,......L E , - M- - - f , , Berlin, Germany, December 15, 1949. Dear Bud : As you know, I am conducting the Berlin Symphony Orchestra now and have an organization of 350 instruments. Herman Trulson is head of the percussion section, still playing his xylophone and kettle drums. But, of course, he can play now! Charles Wolk works in the brass section keeping the instruments shined up with Dworkin's Dirt Destroyer, manufactured by Myer Dworkin. Sammie Weinberg manufactures 'tWeinberg's Washable 'Woolensg there is a great demand for them over here. His head stretcher is Selig Goldfader who sings as he works, making the factory much more private-for himself. Bennie Finkel runs an enormous fishing establishment, selling mainly Finkel's Fifty-Feet Fish. Eleanor Berger is staying for a few days in Ber- lin while she plays the piano in Symphony Hall. However, Eleanor is thinking of tak- ing up the violin since it's easier to carry around. Ruth Baldwin was here just last month talking about The Sweet Dispositions of Red Headed People. She got into such a hot argument over the subject with one of her audience that the p-olice were called to quench the dispute. Peg Alexander is singing in Paris, under the tutelage of the famous teacher, Maestro Edwardo Powerso. George Mulvey owns a Hourishing frankfurt stand in Berlin, otherwise known as The Hot Dog Haven. Milton Schultz as you probably know has his own jazz band composed of seventy-five trombones. Gladys Fenn is a headliner in the Berlin Follies and at last Berlin has been captured! David Chafltz operates a chain of clothing stores throughout Germany, maintaining that Cha-Fitz the Customer. Mildred Fogarty believes in catering to the other sex. She has a large tonsorial parlor where she employs ladies only for her gentlemen customers, and, I can assure you, does business at a clipping rate. Evelyn L-erner is starring in Ralph Krock's latest audible picture, 'tHairbreadth Harry's Harem and is the thirteenth wife of 'tEd McClure who is Bluebeard, the Twenty- Ninth. That's all for the present, Auf wiedersehn, EDVVARD ARONOVITZ. Of course you remember Betty Richardson? Just at present she is busy raising a fine family, but she has found time to write to me. 31 Homestead Avenue Bushfield, Ohio, February 7, 1950. Dear Leighton: It has been such a long, long time since I last heard from you. Of course I know that you are an extremely reluctant letter writer and must expect such treatment. However, I see that you were forced to write to me this time to ask for news of some of our old classmates.

Ethel Wilson has made her fortune as a pianist for the talkies in Hollywood and is now retired on her Lion Farm just outside of Los Angeles. Kay,' Riedl owns a large nursury in Chicago, fourteen stories high, it is a howling success. Emory Rogers is touring the country with his famous Shakespearean Troupe and has suc- ceeded in making Shakespeare popular by his parodies on the old masterpieces. Eleanor Snell is at present the head of a large osteopathic hospital in Michigan and the fame of her skill has brought patients from all over the world. The Prince of Wales, after his last fall, while riding, came to her hospital and fell again-for Eleanor. However, his wife came to see him one day and now the Prince is back in England. Polly Bushong is hostess in one of Chicago's aerial night clubs and just at present the club is down on the ground for repairs. Freddie,' Methot went up there a few nights ago, and, once start-ed, simply ruined the place. His Wife objected to his yard-long cigarette holders and, Freddie, in anger, spent his wrath on Polly's Night Club. Joe Tivnan, who apprehended him, said that he kept muttering something about Classical, prob- ably those slippering stairs or blackened ceilings. Mary O'Reilly and Julia Meleski own and operate a thriving matrimonial agency here in Chicago and I understand that Charles Boyanowski was in there just the other day looking for a wife, but refused to buy when he found that the purchase of a wife meant a guarantee to give her fifty per cent of his week's salary. As ever, t'BETTY. I also have a letter here somewhere from Betty White. One day a Bedouin Sheik from the Sahara cam-e to Worcester and swept Betty right off her feet and they have lived happily ever after on the edge of that great desert, which is a desert only in name since it is now covered with vegetation due to the modern methods of agriculture which Betty's husband uses. He has a conservatory covering one acre in which he raises only orchids for his little wife. Sahara Sands, February 17, 1950.

That gracious person uses Aero- Boats so that when the Devil presents its hated being in the form of cataracts, she may sail through the protected atmosphere and land again on the water, safely. Bertha Gordon, one of our classmates, decided to risk her petty life on one of those most palpitating voyages, but was the unfortunate recipient of an ill-timed attack of 'mal-dw mer and was compelled by the evil spirits to get out and walk. 'Our fair-haired fftwen- ty-ninerf' Dot Hunt, is the owner of a most delectable bazaar for dispensing those po- tent leaves of the Orient, on the shores of that blessed portion of moisture, Lake Ny- anza. Dot tells this unworthy person that her enchanting room is always well at- tended by old flames and said room is full of the heat. of many summers in all kinds of weather. That pleasing person also gave me much joy when she imparted to me that a few short days ago a caravan of tourists, Mary Jones, Bertha Kesseler, Richard Rubin, Mary Hartnett, Philip Selig, and Evelyn Taggart, made their welcome arrival on a Decker's Different Tour, which was personally escorted by Tom and his charming wife. Merle Connelly has succeeded, with the aid of Allah, in becoming a most well known figure in the world of buy-and-sell, exporting tasty bits of Connelly's Congo Candies to the farthest parts of this expansive world. She says that her art of cooking was developed by obesrving the Classical Lunch Counter. Another illustrious class- mate, 'tFl-ossy Whitcomb, resided on that bit of land known as the Cape of Good Hope, counting the messengers or good will which steamed by. When an ill-fated messenger of the mighty deep was forced by the Evil One t-o ride onto the terrible and barren rocks in front of her home, she entertained the good captain of that broken ship and now they are in the ecstacies of a blissful joining of the bonds of matrimony. Two most eminent missionaries, Thelma Rappaport- and Stephanie Sieniewska, have sacri- ficed their noble lives trying to induce the members of the Ethiopian Race in Liberia to partake of bigger and better onions.

Margaret Atwood made a delightful Visit to my humble h-ovel a few moons ago as she was swiftly making her way back to the States United on the beautiful wings of time.

On my last trip across the Atlantic, I spent a few days at the f'Mid-'Ocean Hotel for seasick travelers which is just half-way between America and England. John l29l en' H --a X417 - - as 'fe Power built this floating palace and did a wonderful job. I received an aero-gram from him not long ago. This is it: MID-OCEAN HOTEL May 7, 1950. Dear Bud : Ilve Hnally found time to give you an idea of all the ex-Classicalites who are here in the Mid-Ocean Hotel. You said you'd like to hear about them. Marion Healey and Esther King, together with Alice Anguria and Catherine MacDermott, are my tele- phone girls and they keep plugging along. Doug Marks is my manager and makes everyone feel at home although a thousand miles from home. Helen McCono- logue, Ida Crock, and Gladys Bell have charge of our ladies' swimming pool. Celia Nadler, is giving an exhibition tennis match here this week, still playing an excellent brand of tennis. Zelda Meiselman plays the 'cello in our string ensemble during lunch- eon and dinner, she is also very adept on the piccolo. Peg Chandley has charge of our Swedish Massage Department and has become strong and husky. Ethel Clarkson won our bathing beauty contest conducted here last week and leaves tomorrow on a vaudeville tour of the Atlantic and Pacific Hotels. An expedition has just started exploring the bottom of the seas under the direction of that learned gentleman, Joseph Dusavage. The party, consisting of Jordan Sandman, Irene Epstein, Margaret Daw- son, Grace Clark, Paul Terry, Frances Melican, and Freda Rosenburg, have not been heard from for the last few days, so I do not know what they are doing. On your next trip to Europe stop at the hotel and spend a few days with us. By the sad sea waves, JOHN POWER. You probably have heard of Kay Thurston's success. She has won cups and medals in all sorts of athletic contests, and is now in charge of the girls' physical edu- cation department at Classical. But how Classical has changed! The school and its grounds, consisting of lawns, baseball diamonds, running tracks, football stadium, land- ing field, and other property, cover one hundred acres. The 'school itself is the last word in modern institutions of learning and is a great place. However, let's not digress and get back to the letter which I received from Kay. CLASSICAL HIGH SCHOOL WORCESTER, MASSACIIUSEVTTS February 19, 1950. Dear Bud : It certainly seems great to be back in our new school, still under the old name. William Sullivan is director of athletics here and takes his teams all over the world, bringing Classical many victories. Marion Williams is head of the nature department and all her pupils say, t'Ain't nature grand? Fay Piper has charge of the cosmetics room and has just patented a new driving-parking-sparking-proof lipstick which is in great demand. Anthony Shirley is superintendent of the boiler room and certainly makes things 'thotf' Catherine Paulowsky, Rae Goodstein, Ella Ireland, and Esther E301 ,J if , ,W , -Y, z, , , , ,, X,-X , , , , YA5 , , , Y -. ,,.-.,. , ...,- , ,....., N V , Y , W ,I,, , 7 , , Plotkin run a dressmaking store here in Worcester, and they say it is a fitting busi- ness. Beatrice Press is the larg-est realatrix in Worcester. Sadie Rabinovitz has suc- ceeded in controlling a thriving business, selling Ladies' Lovely Lingerie. Catherine Sullivan and Mary Gilligan own the Worcester Consolidated Airway Company and passengers still complain of the service which they receive. Anna Cunic is one of the manikins in one of the largest department stores, and they say, has more admirers than a Scotchman giving away money on a street corner. Anne Glixman, Helen Gor- don, and Esther Grees specialize in Hardware from Ring to Rolling-pin. There goes the bell for classes and I must leave you to take my charges in hand. Non sibi sed omnibus, KAY. Last year you remember the Soviet Government decided that they must put their revolutions on a paying basis or operations would have to cease. Looking for a hard headed business man they found Ed Ames and my last letter from him says that Business is good. SOVIETSHA OFFICE or GENERAL MANAGER March 18, 1950. Dear Old Timer: Here's to the good, old days at Classical. I wish I were there! However, business is good over here and I have just received a raise in my salary. Leopold Matysczyk, the famous Soviet General, has won a great victory and everybody is celebrating, even Jack Silver, t'Bill Clancy, and Frank Wishneski, who own the Tinkerville Trolley, have shown their joy by speeding over eight miles per hour. Henrietta Gallagher has charge of our Humble Husbands' Department and manages to induce them to rebel against their wives and fight for the Soviet Government. Cynthia Crosby is head of our ambulance corps and after every battle reigns supreme. Doris Goldman, one of the drivers, has just fallen in l-ove with a soldier who lost his head-over Doris! Ruth Comtois, my French cook, manages to keep my stomach filled although some of her apple pie reminds me of a Eve-cent check. I have hired Mary Power to entertain the soldiers each evening with bedtime stories and she just knocks them off their feet. Irene King is their little motherg she keeps their stockings darned and their suspender but- tons sewed on, while Mary McGrady has charge of the jail since we believe in kinder treatment of calloused criminals. An attempt was made to assassinate me the other day, but I slid down on my knees as if sliding down Classical's stairs and I am still alive and kicking. Revolutionally yours, ED. And so you see to what heights the members of the Class of 19229 have aspired. I feel that I must keep these epistles as treasures to be cherished in the years to come, and for the benefit of posterity, I am going to bury them in th ruins of that famous old landmark on the corner of Irving and Chatham Streets. fProphet ties letters and places them under stage? I31l The Mirror of Nature NIARGARET Arwoon ENTLY the waves lap the beach, one following upon another in ceaseless succes- sion. Their music mingles with the whispering of the pines, with the songs of the cedar wax-wing and of the yellow warbler. In every direction lies water- water-water, with only the trees and the sky to break the monotony. But over it all towers the great Vault of heaven, reaching up and up, till the soul that gazes sky- ward becomes lost in its endless expanse. In the west, a great fiery ball half hides its head beneath the billowy, deep blue cloud, showing itself more regal in its dying moments than in all its fullest life. As I gaze upon this scene of beauty, of tranquility, a host of thoughts surge through my mind. The mystery -of the universe overwhelms me with new strength. Just why have all these marvels of nature been placed before the human eye? Does their presence serve for nothing more than to create atmosphere-to give pleasure to humanity such as is derived from a moving picture, a lecture, or a concert? It doesn,t seem possible. If we can understand the language of the waves, and profit by the silent example -of the pines, the clouds, the sun, and the sky, then, and then only, can We even in part grasp the meaning of life. To me, the waves represent life itself as every human experiences it. One day rolls in after another, breaks, vanishes, and is succeeded by another. Only the memory cf it remains, and that, t-oo, fades before long. If this is all life is, some ask, why do we so love it? We love it because it fascinat-es us. VVe never can tell what the tide may bring with it, but hope always runs high. We search the unfathomable deep, fearful of what lies beyond, yet curious enough to linger there and find out. The same cord that binds a man's feet to the shore of a sea, holding him there almost against his will, binds within him love of life. Some waves may be high, some low, no one is quite like another, yet all seem to say, Couragea--courage-courage, as they break upon the rocks. In the distance the pines stand dark, tall, and powerful, against the sky. They symbolize dependability, loyalty, devotion, 1ove,Aall the qualities that make for out- standing character and personality. Their simplicity, erectness, and strength make us feel how simple, how erect, how strong should be our lives, our loyalties, our devo- tions. E32l fi-37 YY YY fxx ,, Q 62 O Mrerees J Beyond the trees float the clouds, so velvety, so unresisting, seeming t-o reflect the contentment of leisure hours well spent. They are gentler than the pines, less awe- inspiring. Yet what would the landscape be without them? They give character, variety to the surroundings, just as our leisure hours, if wisely employed, may enrich our lives. If we waste our spare moments, then they become like storm clouds, racing across our horizon, and blotting' out the peace that dwelt there. The sun is like the joys that come and go. When we behold them from a distance, and thcn draw near-er, they seem glorious as the dawn. Yet after a while, their new- ness wears off, and though still pleasures, they are not so attractive as before. So the sun shines during the day, but not so brilliantly as in its waking hours. As evening draws near, however, its color increases, its splendor takes on new forms, and its last moments are its loveliest. Thus do passing joys rise, linger, and set, and the setting hour is the best, for the pleasures that we have possessed and are losing are dearer to us than ever before, for only when they are ours no longer do we appreciate them fully. Last of all, the sky, stretched far above all, is significant of the heights to which our souls may soar. The world stands out -on either side, No wider than the soul is wide. Above the earth is stretched the sky, No higher than the soul is high. Heaven and earth will crush the heart That cannot keep them pushed apart. But he whose soul is flat-the sky Will cave in on him by and by. i331 KATHERINE A. RfIEDL T116 CVVSPEIPCI' KAT'HElRINE A. RIEEDL H HE basis of our government being the opinion of the people, the very first object should be to keep that right, and were it left to me to decide whether we should have a government without newspapers or newspapers without a government, I should not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter. But I should mean that every man should receive those papers, and be capable of reading them. So spoke Thomas Jefferson, and so might we speak today were it not that we Americans have come to take almost everything as a matter of course. Owing to civilization's rapid advance, we have become indifferent to the wonders about us. New inventions and discoveries have followed one after another with such every-day regularity that we accept them as we accept our daily tasks. Thus the automobile, the airplane, and the submarine have lost their appeal of wonder. What consideration then would one give the common newspaper whose history antedates these twentieth century marvels by many years? Yet, how little thought do we give to this record of daily happenings! Purchased for a few cents, read quickly, laid aside after several minutes, it arouses little amazement. Comparing the newspaper with the average novel, our curiosity is aroused. The editing of a newspaper is accomplished Within twelve hours, of an ordinary novel in several months or even years. The daily circulation of a newspaper often surpasses the yearly sales of a novel. We read news from London, Paris, Hong Kong, San Francisco, reports of sports, society, crime, the stock market, and gaze upon photographs which accompany these. Besides all this news and comment, there are many entertaining magazine features, of much value to the housewife and family. The evolution of the modern newspaper is interwoven with the history of American progress for the last forty years. It is chiefly economic and mechanical in nature. Were it not for the adaptation of speedy labor-saving machinery to newspaper printing, the newspaper would still be in its infancy. The typewriter, the linotype, the type- caster, to mention a few, are indispensable to the modern press office. The huge press associations afford efficient means of obtaining distant news, thereby avoiding the example of duplication by several newspapers. The news- paper syndicate supplying papers with similar illustrations, similar comic strips, sim- l35l cl Z T , ,,,, Y ,, , .--.............,,A, .....,. as Y..,..,f:X W , ,W ,:,-f .,......-, W V, .,...,7 ,T Q ,,-,M T wig .-.-.............,.......,.....i.,.,,,,..,,.-..,....,,a.,..- .... .........A..........,...,..... ,f 'NX ..,,,,,..,,..,..,..,,,....,..,,.g......,...,.,.-.......,......,-.........,..............,,, L C M K ifqx sw W fmm G f X 9 4 .

These economies explain likewise the combination of newspapers in large cities. A step further and we have the chain newspapers just as we have chain grocery stores and chain Hve-and-ten-cent stores. Two of the largest chains, the Hearst and the Scripps-Howard, comprise over fifty dailies. To the development of more rapid methods of transportation and communication, the paper owes in part its extensive circulation. The automobile, wireless telegraphy, and other modern inventions communicate the latest news in increasing volume to the editorial rooms. The newspaper has kept pace with the speeding up and efficiency of American life. The causes for its growth are peculiar to other institutions of our economic life. The newspaper reflects the hectic life we are leading. High speed marks every detail of its publication-from the beat of the cub reporter to the speedy delivery trucks. The reader, living an equally rapid life, snatches hasty glances here and there, tossing it aside after the momentary pleasures have been culled from it. How little regard we have for the wonderful accomplishments of the newspaper of today! How could we overcome its loss! l36l ELIZABETH RICHARDSON The Vvarning Voice of History ELIZABETH RICHARDSON ELDWOM does one find the ideal combination of romance and fact. It is found, however, on the pages of history from the earliest records down to the current moment. Most of us have a preference for romance, adventure, or else for com- fortable fact. One appeals to the imagination, the other suggests reason and stability. Consequently, while studying history the two most important faculties of the mind are exercised. The great conquests of Alexander, the significant discoveries of Columbus, the streams of sturdy colonizers, the journeys of the bold pioneers, all furnish romance galore, but romance balanced by actual dates, real men, real battles, and real places. They are inseparable. History amuses, it thrills, it inspires, but its outstanding function is that of an oracle. In ancient times people visited the oracles, seeking advice. The priestess deliv- ered mesages to the anxious ones. They were not her messages. She was, supposedly, but a medium through which the gods or goddesses conveyed their words. History is not only our inheritance from preceding generations, but it is also the voice of our God, exhorting us to learn our lessons and to profit by our knowledge. Civilization began with Egypt, other nations, Persia, Greece, Rome, Modern Europe, Britain and our own America, have developed it. Each has gleaned its har- vest from other lands and has sowed anew that it may reap again. Families united into tribes, tribes gradually became states, and states nationsg today nations teach the doctrine of universal brotherhood. These early unions were made primarily for the purpose of protection. The Delian Confederacy, which included Athens and her allies, was formed for better resistance against Persia, her greatest rival. Time went on and mankind moved ev-er toward the golden islands of the West. Centuries passed and communities began to dot the coast of a new continent. With these settlements came new problems and new ideals. Again came a union for mutual protection, a union of thirteen states, but not for protection alone. It came that the wheels of the great world machine might turn in closer harmony. The Pan-American Conferences increased our friendship with our sister continent. The meeting at The Hague attempted to settle peacefully disputed points of inter- national law. But the rumble of the thunder in Germany grew louder. History and its startling lessons were forgotten. Military forces in Europe upset all plans. For four l38l ,J f f-x Y, , , ,S I OCLASSHC QQ M Yiiornei 1, Q, f ' cxxy' c' so ' 9 years World Peace slept quietly while the God of War smiled smugly over the battle- fields of France. A bad example sometimes has the power to inspire desirable traits. In this case I believe it has. The world leaders of tomorrow have had a horrible example placed squarely before them. The definite outline of its hideousness and inhumanity have faded, but we must not forget! The world recovered itself and attempted to repair the ravages, attempted to show that perhaps what the oracle had said was inot entirely forgotten. Two men have visited the oracle of history. They have returned with a document, which, if it is uni- versally accepted will outlaw war. A war-Weary world pauses to consider the Kellogg- Briand Peace Pact. It is civilization,s greatest interpretation of the original idea of union for protection, uniting not state with state, but nation with nation. Today the United States is ranked one of the leading nations of the world. Her civilization is of the highest. But she is warned by the oracle. Egypt and the early civilizations are hidden beneath the dust of the agesg Athens has died and only a few broken fragments of her beauty remaing the Vandals, under Geiseric, did the impos- sible when they sacked Rome and left her power shattered and her glory dead. Their complete lack of mercy during the siege has given us our modern word, vandalism, a synonym for wanton destructiveness. We are asking ourselves, What is to be our fate? No one can answer that. It is for triumphant America to be humble, for an arrogant nation is the curse of man and the trial of God. In the words of George Horace Lorimer: 'tSome of us are tall and others short, some straight and others crooked, some strong, others feeble, some of us run, others walk, others snail it. But all have their feet upon the same level of the common earth. Head as high as you please, but feet always upon the common ground, never upon anybody's shoulders or neck, even though he be weak or willing. Man has learned that despotism, aristocracy and oligarchy rob people of their rightsg that true democracy is glorified government. American youth has a sacred heritage in its government and civilization. Both have been fought for, died for, and we must learn to live for them. Twenty-nine years of the twentieth century have passed. It is our privilege to make or mar the history of the next seventy-one. May we prove equal to our opportunitiesg may We prove Worthy of our heritage! I39l New England Conscious LEIGHTON JAcKsoN H EW ENGLAND has seen its best day - There is no future for the young man or young woman in New Englandf' So we hear, so we read, and so perhaps, We say. We read and we be- lieve such pessimistic comments on the industrial future of New England because we are not what President Hoover says we should be, New England conscious. New England is a reservoir of the most skilled labor, he says, the most skilled direction, and the highest intelligence in the world. If she has been lacking in anything, it is that collective sense of the community which has pushed other localities ahead. It is quite true that a part of the cotton textile industry has moved to the South in order to be nearer the supply and to secure cheaper labor. It is not denied that the leather shoe industry has moved to St. Louis, again because of the proximity to its sources. On the face of things, it looks as if there were not much hope for in- dustrial New England. 'But let us not fold our hands and join the lamenting chorus. Do you know that within her borders there are one hundred and eleven separate industries, which bring into New England more than three million dollars each, an- nually? And do you know that in eleven lines of manufacturing, aggregating one billion per year, New England is producing from fifty to seventy-five per cent of the entire output of the country? In fact New England, with only two per cent of the country's area and seven per cent of the population, produces eleven per cent of the country's manufactured goods. Even in the lines of manufacturing for which there is reason to be concerned, the situation is not so bad as is often described. During the past year, New England actually turned out sixty-two and four-tenths per cent of the woolen goods of the United States. The boot and shoe trade in New England in 1928 enjoyed the greatest production in its history, and despite the western development, Massachusetts leads all other states in the Union in the boot and shoe industry. Do these figures suggest l40l C21-W ' TQZTHTZ 1i..i' ' ' f f' C' releases ser, Q Q Q im 'X'iii '1TUlilS we I 'Qf ,., T Q Y if- 'lT...Q.lI1' .f ,T I'1M .if that the whirring wheels of industry are soon to be silenced so that America may enjoy her vacation in New England? Incidentally, we should not disregard these vacation-land possibilities, for New England has much to offer in the way of mountains, seashore, lakes, and woods. Last year over three million visitors came to New England, an increase of ten per cent over the figures for 1927, and they spent over four hundred million dollars. New England is simply experiencing another revolution in industry. In the days gone by, the fishermen gave way to the clipper-ship owners, and the clipper-ship owners to the mill owners, lout in each case New England emerged more prosperous than ever. Only the sturdy pioneer spirit could have weathered the storms of the past, only a revival of that spirit will bring us safely through our present difficulties. New England needs to draw on her reservoir of intelligence to meet the problems before herg problems of the clectrincation of industry, problems of taxation. Let not the young men and young women of New England be content to see her become a shrine of national history or even a prosperous playground for the nation. Let them make use of their educational facilities, their industrial heritage. Let them learn the lesson of the adopted son of California and become New England conscious. ldlll SOCIETIESI C. H. S. D. A. Regardless of overwork necessitating their announced retirement as faculty ad- visers, Mr. Howe and Mr. Brennan agreed to contribute different evenings each month for C. H. S. D. A. meetings, with the result that this season vies with others for successful accomplishment. The Declamation Contest for the Bergen prizes drew an entry list of thirty speakers. From this group, six finalists were chosen to speak fourth hour in the Assembly Hall. The team selected was captained by David Power. Norman Robbins received second honor, while Francis Madden was named alternate. At the annual Colby College declamation contest, David Power ranked high among eighteen finalists from a field of sixty-five young orators representing high and preparatory schools of Maine, Massachusetts, and Vermont. The first C. H. S. D. A. reunion and banquet, a gala affair, was attended by many of Classical's most famous graduates. Inspiring talks by Mr. Fenner and Mr. Howe, in addition to the winning declamations of such stars as Eli Smith, Joseph Dephoure, Charles Whelan, Charles Olson, and younger than all, David Power, added color to the gathering. ' Governing during the first semester were George Howarth, president, John Power, vice-presidentg Joseph Tivnan, secretary, Jesse Tronic, treasurer. Later Jesse Tronic served as president, Joseph Tivnan as vice-president, Francis Hickey, secretary, and Vincent O'Neil, treasurer. Officers and other members alike oHer most sincere thanks to Mr. Howe and Mr. Brennan, faculty advisers. The Student Council This year has proved a successful one for the Student Council at Classical High School. The year started with the election of a fine set of ofiicers, George Howarth, president, Ruth Jenks, vice-president, Ethel Clarkson, secretary. One of the first duties of the newly elected members was the gathering of subscriptions for the Argus , and from the large circulation of this paper, it would seem that the coun- cillors had done their work thoroughly. In October, Howarth resigned his position to take up the duties of president of the senior class, and Wesley Goddard was elected his successor. Under the latter's guidance, and at the suggestion of Mr. Fenner, the following committees were formed to further the interests of the school: program committee, to arrange the programs for the weekly assemblies, building committee, to keep the school building in an orderly condition, activities committee, to give aid to all student projects, library committee, to keep the library orderly and to cata- logue the books. Again Parents' Night, now a yearly institution, was a tremendous success, owing to the guidance of Miss Ryan. At the Student Council Convention in E421 I ps Y Y YY YY V, ,-XX ,, , L, , eocmaessnme 0 QD Margins Q- Brookline, Barbara Denny, Chester Eaton, Ethel Clarkson, and W'esley Goddard served as our representatives. Again, a Classical girl was elected secretary of the Associated Bodies of High School Student Councils of Massachusetts, the third time that such an honor has come to our school. We wish to congratulate the Council on the excellent work that it has done, and hope that it may continue to live on permanently. Stamp The latest addition to Classical's many extra-curriculum activities is the Stamp Club. Under the leadership of its first president, Edwin Ames, the club has suc- ceeded in making great headway. On October 8, 1928, a notice, posted on the bulletin board, informed all who were interested in forming a stamp club to meet in the Library at one o'clock. With the help of Mr. Fenner, the meeting was held, and the club got under way with the following officers: president, Edwin Ames, vice-president, Jesse Tronicg secretary, Francis Madden, treasurer, Austin Coates, Mr. Couming was asked to be the faculty adviser, and upon his acceptance of the duty, everything was made ready for the initial meeting which took place in room thirty-two on the twenty-fifth of October. A committee, which had been previously appointed to draw up a constitution, pre- sented it at that time, and after being read, it was approved by the twelve charter members who were present. The club has now increased its membership to thirty-five and plans expansion for the next year. The regular meetings during the winter months were made exceed- ingly interesting by the discussion of varied topics of philatic interest, and also by the study of collections, made by members themselves, assembled in the past years. Cl3SSiCal and Reserves During the past year, the Classical Hi-Y Club has had a very active life. Its regular meetings in the winter were made exceedingly worthwhile by the talks of Doctor Ackerly. At the Federation meetings, the club was entertained by many inter- esting speakers: at the football banquet two members of the Yale football team spokeg and on College Night, the captain of the Harvard track team, and th-e secretary of the Philipps Brooks House told a little of the college life which the members will experience in the years to come. Although we have not heard a great deal about the Classical Girl Reserves, nevertheless, they have progressed at a rapid rate. Since opening their season in the fall of 1928, the members of the club have always had something worthwhile to dot Besides holding regular meetings, they have participated in bowling and swimming matches, skating, hiking, and in many other activities. The organization has also en- joyed theatre parties, dramatic entertainments, health talks, and social service work. During the past year conferences with other clubs have been held, and much material, Valuable in the years to come, has been gathered together. E431 Aletheia Miss Hunt, the faculty adviser of the Aletheia for many years, was most faith- ful to the society. This year, however, she did not return to school, and in her place We have Miss Shaugnessy, who has continued the excellent Work with no selfish motive. The Aletheia has changed its method of procedure and only girls who have a scholastic standing of A and B are eligible. The membership limit is thirty-five, thirty seniors and juniors, and only five sophomores. The meetings tak-e place every third Friday. An endeavor is made to become more familiar with the poets and authors of the World. Through the aid of the able program committee, the Aletheia has had the privi- lege of listening to two outside speakers. Miss Hunt generously gave the society an interesting talk on the Value of Co-education. Mr. Greenwood, an English teacher at North High School, and a truly famous Worcester poet, addressed the society on the topic, Poetry. The talk was not only instructive and impressive, but also cleverly illustrated. ln order to encourage the members, Mr. Fenner has offered a book prize for the best display of literary talent. The oiiicers who have helped to make this Aletheia year successful are Margaret Atwood, presidentg Ruth Jenks, vice-president, Elizabeth Richardson, secretary, and Mary Miller, treasurer. The chairman of the program committee is Barbara Denny and the chairman of the membership committee, Victoria Smith. E441 CTCIICC Clubs Under the able leadership of Mr. O'Regan and Mr. Arey, the Science Club held interesting meetings this past year on the first N p Wednesday of each mouth. The following oiiicers were installed for the year: Philip Butler, president, Jesse Tronic, vice-president, Katherine Riedl, secretary, Lawrence Hescock, treasurer. Most of the programs were presented by members of the club, who gave short talks on matters pertaining to science. At one meeting, however, a speaker from the gas office gave an interesting lecture on gas. All pupils who have taken either physics or chemistry are eligible to belong to this club, whose purpose is to promote a greater interest in the sciences. THE BOTANY CLUB Under the direction of Mr. Hearn, the faculty adviser, the Botany Club has had a very satisfactory year under the following officers: Dorothy Davis, president, Marion Healy, vice-president, Mabel Wray, secretary, and Girard Guertin, treasurer. Every second and fourth Wednesday of the month interesting meetings have been held, some of which were presented by the pupils and others by outside speakers. The ac- tivities of the year included a trip to Mr. Rice's camp in Rutland and the annual trip to the Harvard Museum on May fourteenth. This club was founded to give pupils an opportunity to further their botanical knowledge. THE AGASSIZ CLUB This club, founded to promote a greater interest in the study of biology, selected the following group of officers for 1929: Ruth Jenks, president, Lambi Adams, vice- presidentg Jesse Tronic, secretary, and Francis Hickey, treasurer. Programs were presented by pupils, and at various times there were also outside speakers. The meetings are held the third Wednesday of every month. Only those who have an average of seventy-five per cent or over are eligible to become members of this club, however, open meetings are sometimes held which all interested pupils may attend. For the club members, outdoor trips have served to encourage research work. Mr. O'Flynn has generously given his assistance as in past years. THE PYTHAGOREAN CLUB With the help of its faculty adviser, Miss Pierce, the executive board of the Pythagorean Club has drawn up a new plan this year for securing Club pins. Formerly pins could be purchased for one dollar, now the members have to work for them. To do this they have to read several mathematical books, know the lives of several prominent mathematicians, et cetera. At the end of the semester, a test is given covering the work. The meetings of the club during the past year have consisted of material designed to help along students who are anxious to gain their pins, for the real aim of the club is to promote interest in mathematics. The officers of the club for the year were as follows: Edwin Ames, president, Leighton Jackson, first vice-presi- dentg Florence 'Whitcomb, second vice-presidentg Ethel VVilson, secretary, and Ed- ward Collins, treasurer. i45l ARGUS BOARD ZARGUSS The Argus has had a successful year. In the first place, the paper was Well supported by the subscriptions of nearly one hundred per cent of the student body. With such good will and cooperation, the board found it much easier to do its best. As for the board itself-peace and harmony has prevailed, all willingly aiding in every way possible, not only to make every issue complete, but also to have every issue on time. Breaking a precedent of eight years of senior editorship, the 1928-29 board was headed by a junior. Under his leadership the Argus has endeavored to broaden its contacts and to secure a place in the ranks of the foremost high school magazines. In March an effective step was taken, one that marks the Argus as a pioneer repre- sentative for Worcester. It was admitted to membership in the National Scholastic Press Association, an organization of over thirteen school papers and magazines throughout the United States working together in an eHort to give to students the best possible publication service. As a further means of bringing our paper into constructively beneficial contact with other school publications, the editor-in-chief attended a two-day conference of the Columbia Inter-scholastic Press Association which was held in New York City. As a special feature this year, there was issued in April an entirely humorous number in the form of the Classical High School Gas Jet, published under the direction of the Argus The number masqueraded as a newspaper having various subdivisions such as headlines concerning some impossible scandal, Doctor Bean's Advice, et cetera. The Gas Jet was enthusiastically received by the students as a bit of nonsense and a change from our regular issues. Formerly the Argus was supplied with cartoons by anyone interested and so the sheet was often left without illustrations. The situation has been remedied by a new department called Cartoons, headed by a special editor whose duty it is to see that each number is duly illustrated with cartoons. The editor is a student of drawing supervised by Miss Smith. As it has been realized that the Argus is really the magazine of the entire school, not simply a collection of material by the staff, more and more contributions have been made by non-board writers, notably by members of the freshman class. As usual, the June number was dedicated to the seniors, featuring subjects about the seniors, but written chiefly by members of the undergraduate board and new members chosen for the 1929-30 board. ' On the whole, the year has been successful-in finances and in material. At present the Argus appears to have in every way adhered to its new policy of broadening its outlook and encouraging student cooperation through contributions, and has not only maintained, but perhaps improved the literary quality of its pro- duction. We, of the 1928-29 board leave the work which has been so pleasant and beneficial to us, expressing our gratitude to Miss Philips, Miss Watson, and Mr. Arey, for their kind and extremely helpful interest. E471 THE CRICKET ON THE HEARTHH HLEND ME FIVE SHILLINNGSH The Green ROOII1 The Green Room Club opened the year with the following 1 officers: Barbara Denny, president, Betty Richardson, vice-presi- X d-ent, Ethel Clarkson, secretary, and Herman Trulson, treasurer. 16 During the autumn, the meetings were made interesting and often- Al times amusing by the presentation of a series of short plays given by club members. One of the big events in the y-ear, on December 26th, was the reunion held for all members of former casts and for all present undergraduates of the club. First, there was a banquet at which everyone fared remarkably well, then followed speeches and toasts. Neil Leonard of the Boston bar was the toastmaster, and he certainly managed to keep those present from becoming bored. Among the speakers were Dr. Karl Bige- low of Harvard, Miss Williams of Classical, James Moynihan of Holy Cross, Kenneth Higgins, '23, Tom Lynch, '18, and Mrs. Betty Fay Martin, '24. All the former mem- bers seemed as pleased as children to have Mr. Post speak to them and call them by the names of the characters whom they had impersonated in past plays. We realize that he was the leading spirit of the whole afair. The reunion was surely a success and we feel that the next one, in 1935, will be even better if it is humanly possible. Altogether, the Green Room Club has had a most full and prosperous year. In January the regular meetings of the club ceased and rehearsals for the senior play commenced. This, of course, was the greatest achievement of the year, for to the plays were given detailed preparations on the part of Mr. Post, and the players and everyone who was in any way connected, gave much time and energy to the pro- duction. A different plan from usual was adopted. Two plays, instead of one, were presented, one a three-act comedy, The Cricket on the Hearth , the other, a one-act farce, Lend Me Five Shillings. The characters in the comedy were as follows: Dot Perrybingle, Betty Richardson, Tilly Slowboy, Marion Williams, John Perrybingle, Emory Rogers, A Stranger, William Regan, Caleb Plummer, Henry Smith, GruH and 'tTackleton, Fr-ed Methot, Bertha Plummer, Barbara Denny, May Fielding, Ethel Clarkson, Mrs. Fielding, Marguerite Bridgham, Dot's mother, Ruth Baldwin, Dot's father, Bronislaus Mysilowiecz, neighbors, Ruth Jenks and George Crosby, a messenger, Paul Moss, Boxer, Archie Jenks. The following persons took part in the farce: Mr. Golightly, Sherman Leonard, Mrs. Major Phobbs, Caroline Thurston, Captain Phobbs, Edward Collins, Mrs. Cap- tain Phobbs, Betty White, Mr. Moreland, Lawrence Hescock, Captain Spruce, Philip Butler, Sam, George Crosby, a waiter, Paul Moss. The presentation was in Tuckerman Hall on April 17th. By the st-orm of applause and the bouquets, we judge that everyone appreciated the plays. Indeed, they were well worthwhile, the rollicking and picturesque farce, and especially 'tThe Cricket on the Hearth, which, of course, had a deeper meaning and significance. That play not only was amusing in parts, but also held touches of pathos. Especially was this true in the case of the blind girl, Bertha Plummer, wh-o longed for sight and yet was patient under her affliction. The role was played by the president of the club, Barbara Denny. E491 ORCHESTRA Classical High School Qrchestra The Orchestra of Classical High School has a very fine reputation which have been selected for the Consolidated High School Symphony of Wo1'cester. The Consolidated Symphony, containing sixty-two pieces is, therefore, over one-third Classical. Several members have also been chosen from this orchestra to represent the City of Vrorcester in the Nwew England High School Orchestra which met in Boston in May. This reHects great credit on Classical. The concert mast-ers are Edward Arono- vitz and Charles Goldstein. Orchestra A is under the supervision of Mr. Dann. in high school circles. It is composed of forty pieces, twenty-six of ,. t Orchestra B is composed mostly of freshmen who, as soon as they have proved themselves capable, fill the vacancies left in Orchestra A. This orchestra appears chiefly before freshman assemblies and is conducted by Mr. Wassell. Both -orchestras appeared at our concert on February the twentieth, and we1'e very well received. The members of Orchestra A are Virginia Allard, Mildred Fogarty, Sydney Levine, piano, Edward Aronovitz, Charles Goldstein, Lewis Houghton, Norbert Lus- zczynski, Bernard Nelson, Margaret Ridler, Max Rubinsky, Irving Skeist, Evelyn Wilson, first violin, William Beausang, Clara Freeman, John Keenan, Francis Logan, Leopold Matyszczyk, Henry Mieczkowski, Mary Rafferty, Thomas Stoskus, second violin, Raymond Beeber, first clarinet, Leo Burwick, oboe, Edward Buyniski, viola, Francis Cronin, tuba, Carl Fisher, Mary Harris, Zelda Meiselman, cello, Hollis Dann, George Gilligan, first trumpet, Barbara Gibbs, Samuel Sigel, second trumpet, Robert Magune, Carl Sundstrom, drums, Nathan Osterman, bass trombone, Edward Powers, first horn, Rosemary Ridler, harp, James Roy, second horn, Nazir Solib, bass, Milton Schultz, first trombone, Herman Trulson, tympani. E511 Kithara In 1922 the Kithara Club was first organized. It was sponsored mainly by the members -of the Music Memory team and started with a membership of fifteen. During the years following, the students' joining in increasing numbers has necessitated a change in the constitution, and the club now boasts an organization of approximately seventy-five members. The practice of the club has been to choose a certain topic each year and to base its programs -on that subject. This past year the society has studied The History of Music, beginning with the -earliest recorded songs and continuing as far as the well-known composers of the classics. In this manner, the members of the club have learned to recognize many important musical compositions by eminent com- posers, and Kithara members feel that the meetings have been exceedingly valuable. For part of its programs the club has had the good fortune to secure outside speakers and musicians. Our Mr. Wassell, a concert violinist, contributed t-o one of the programs, and the now Well-established string quartet played some of its favorite selections. The members of the organization have always been willing to take part in the pro- grams, and Miss Peirce, their faculty adviser, has at all times provided interesting topics for reading to enrich the music. The musical portion has consisted of violin, cello, and vocal solos, a sextette and quintette of girls' voices, piano solos and duets. and last, but not least, pieces on the victrola, giving the club the best in music. IQ52l BOYS' GLEE CLUB GIRLS' GLEE C LUB ix C. H. S. Band The Classical High School Band, after a year of training under Mr. Wassell, has become one of the leading high school bands of Worcester. It has played at numerous football games and many times before the student body, notably, on Alumni Day. In addition to its concert work, the band often plays for marching. One who listens to its music is at once aware that the parts are well-balanced. It is constantly striving for excellent tonal eifects. A fund has been started for new uniforms. Memorial Day, the band appeared at Sterling. This is an organization of which Classical stu- dents may well be proud. The enrollments in the band is as follows: Carroll O'Connor, drum majorg Edward Aronovitz, Francis Cronin, bass, Raymond Beeber, Leo Burwiek, Har-old Narcus, Lewis Shack, Albert Stein, clarinetsg Herman Binder, Harry Boorkey, Sumner Cotton, Hollis Dann, George Gilligan, James Kashman, Samuel Sigel, Harvey White, Louis Cohen, trumpets, Carl Sundstrom, Robert Dawg Thomas Kiely, Jack Mooradian, Nathan Sneiderman, drumsg Milton Evanstein, Bronislaw Gruzdzis, Sherman Lewis, Nathan Osterman, Milton Schultz, trombonesg Arthur Goldberg, Howard Manning, saxophonesg Louis Silver, baritoneg Robert Magune, Edward McDermott, Irving Skeist, Samuel Stein, Sidney Stein, alto, Edward Powers, James Roy, French horns. l54l SOI S Parents, Night Another year has passed and with it the annual Parents' Night, which took place on Wednesday, December 8th, The seats in the Assembly Hall were filled to capacity with parents, who wished to know more about Classical, its ideals and ambitions. The program for the evening opened successfully with a selection, Adagio Pathetiqu-e by Goddard, excellently rendered by our famous Orchestra A. The applause that ensued showed how much the music was appreciated by the parents. The Boys' Glee Club, as usual, carried off the laurels of the evening when they sang with remarkable merit, Oh! Who Will O'er the Downs so Free, by Pearsall and A Pastoral, by Florence F. Turner-Maley. Cocoanut Dance was another selection offered to the audience by Orchestra A. Mr. Young then favored the parents with a short address which proved of very great interest to them. When the program was completed, a reception was held for the parents. This proved to be a memorable occasion for teachers related to anxious mothers and fathers the success or failure of their children. Parents' Night, which comes once a year, ofers a splendid opportunity for teachers and parents to come into closer contact. Bet- ter co-operation between the home and school is often brought about, resulting in an improved scholastic standing on the part of pupils. Parents' Night als-o reveals to many mothers and fathers the valuable organizations and societies at Classical which are open to all pupils. Alumni Day On December twenty-lirst, Classical's old, beloved walls again rang with the voices of about seventy-live of its famous alumni. Many of these were, quite naturally, from the Class of '28, and yet, there were not a few representatives from the more distant past, especially, members of the Classical faculty. More than eighteen colleges and higher institutions of learning were represented. In the presence of the student body, the alumni were duly ushered into the hall and a most interesting program was offered. This was begun by Mr. Fenner, who welcomed the alumni back, expressing the hope that they would be a nucleus for reviv- ing the latent Classical Alumni Association. Charles J. Olson, president of the Class of '28 and a student at Wfesleyan, gave a few of his impressions of college life. Then G. Lowell Field, also of the Class of ,28, a student at Wesleyan, favored us with a l-15l Clif f 'ig , i:1:' 'gi' 'fxv l.ff1.,,, . ff L' :J ' M,- wciiefeessree Q Qu Q writers Q C review of his ideas of being a freshman. Harry Tarlow of Boston University, a mem- ber of the alumni dance committee, urged the support of the alumni dance. The com- mittee on programs was aided by Orchestra A, the Boys' Glee Club under the direction of Mr. Dann and Mr. Wassell, and four members of the girls' gymnasium class, who presented the Duranty Bug dance. Kenneth P. Higgins was -elected president with vice-presidents, George and Dorothy White, and a board of directors, Gertrude Williams, Matthew J. Couming, Peggy Bur- roughs, Charles Grace, Charles Whelan and Philip Miller. After the exercises in the hall, the alumni proceeded to renew fond acquaintance with teachers and friends. g The Concert and Operetta This year, the musical organizations combined and gave a very original concert and operetta under the direction of Mr. Albert W. Wassell. The concert consisted of numbers given by each musical organization of the school. The order of appearance was as follows: Orchestra B, Boys' Glee Club, Orchestra A, Girls' Glee Club, and the Band. Herman Trulson also gave some very enjoyable selec- tions on the xylophone. The selections given by the -entire concert displayed 'training and talent and were very well received. Six Sailor Chanties next amused the audience with humorous songs. The event of the evening, Way Down South in Dixie, concluded the program. This was selected by Mr. Wassell because of its originality. There was no connected story, but a series of southern songs, cheerfully colored 'by s-outhern dialogue. The introductory remarks were given by Miss Ethel Clarkson. The opening and closing selections were given by Miss Margaret Alexander, who played the part of Dixie Girl. The others in the cast were Olive Hastings, Harold Johnson, Helen Lock, Gertrude Johnson, Helen Kaplan, Edward Powers, Bernard Nelson, John Keenan, Sherman Leonard, Francis Hickey, Edmund Belliv-eau, Helen Cashner, and Charles Farrell. There was also an excellent chorus. The dancing numbers included in the operetta were as follows: Cake Walk, performed by Miss Gladys Fenn, Virginia Reel, per- formed by girls of the chorus, and coached by Miss Sara Whitin. Orchestra A was conducted by Arthur J. Dann. The Senior Cotillion An evening that will long remain in the memory of the Class of '29, is that of Friday, December 7th, when the annual senior dance was held at Hildreth Hall. Socially, the Senior Cotillion was quite a success and if ever a dance was perfect, the cotillion deserved that credit. A Wonderful night, splendid music, and a rainbow of glittering colors created by the beautiful frocks of the girls made the evening one to be E561 if' ,...............a....................,.-a-.....,........ . . V . Y Y,-Mx Y , Y ,,,6,.:,-H. . -. - -- -- L J - , ge Q fe fe. f Q f Marcela long remembered, indeed. Added to these were the gay laughter and beaming faces of everyone. Even the faces of the stags, lined against the wall, shone. The success of the evening was due to the unfailing zeal of the committee of which John Power was chairman. The Music Weavers, who wove their most entrancing and enticing tunes, 'tdoing their bit to make the dance a success, played the Blues, but there wasn't a single blue person there. Even the discovery of tickets on the cars parked outside could not dim the exuberant spirits of those who were unlucky -enough to receive them. Although months have passed since that evening, just to recall it brings a smile to the lips, as memory repaints the scenes of that evening of joyous fantasy. Among the patrons and patronesses were Mr. and Mrs. Fenner, Mr. and Mrs. John D. McKinley, Mr. and Mrs. John J. Power, Miss Pierce, Miss Shaughnessy, Mr. Tobin, and Mr. Couming. The Senior Prom and Banquet They came!-the seniors, in neat, white flannels and gayly tinted gowns, all dis- ciples of Terpsichore, all trippers of the light fantastic-to the Senior Prom. On this memorable occasion, the seventh of June, Ed Murphy's Bohemians furnished music for the dancing. One couple after another dutifully paid their respects to our patrons and patronesses, Mr. and Mrs. Harold L. Fenner, Mr. and Mrs. Fred J. Brennan, Mr. and Mrs. Matthew J. Couming, and Mr. and Mrs. John J. Power. As the prom pro- gressed, the grand ballroom of the Hot-el Bancroft became crowded with happy, radiant couples. At last, as the clock struck twelve, the music ceased. Thus, the Senior Prom of 1929 closed,-a marked success, because of the -earnest efforts of John J. Power, Jr. and his committee. Another memorable occasion was the Senior Banquet. This exclusive senior affair was held on June 24th, at six o'clock at the Hotel Bancroft. During the course of the dinner a number of clever t-oasts were given. George Howarth, our president, presided as toastmaster. He introduced the various speakers: John J Power, Jr., toasted the girls and Caroline Thurston, the boys, Ethel Clarkson, the faculty, Philip Butler, athletics, Leighton Jackson, the juniors, and George Stevens, the seniors. Later we retired to the main ballroom, where dancing brought the evening to a grand finale.

Confronted with the task of replacing the stars graduated from last year's championship eleven, Coach Cantwell moulded together at first a green team. The first game was with an experienced St. John's team. After a hard light, St. John's was returned victor. More hard, diligent practice followed, and the team journeyed to Newport, R. I., to play St. George's. A last- minute touchdown on a long run was the slight margin of a Classical defeat. Next, the eleven suffered its only inter-high series defeat from a veteran Com- merce team. The splendid battle, however, was a credit to the players. Improvement became evident, and hard work was rewarded in the following game, a scoreless tie with the strong South aggregation. Classical held the upper hand during the entire fray, but lacked the punch to put over a score. In the next encounter, the last of the season, a well trained, matured Classical team outplayed the powerful North eleven and enjoyed the fruits of a 6-O victory. It is only proper that We mention Captain 'fBill Regan's aggressive play at cen- ter. Very few gains were made around Bill Sullivan's end, while the line play of George Hodgkinson and rugged Louis Karaku was outstanding. Frank Wisniewski and Phil Butler ranked high among the backs during the entire series. We admire the splendid efforts of both the players and their coach. lG0l BOYS' BASKETBALL TEAM BASEBALL TEAM Boys, Basketball After having been deprived of all his veterans, either by ,Q graduation or by transfer, Coach Cantwell diligently set to the task of building a team worthy to represent the school. How 6+ well he succeeded can be attested by the seven well-earned vic- tories which balanced an equal number of well-contested defeats. fx Three consecutive victories, one at the expense of Post's, with a score of 27-16, another over Leominster, a 24-22 verdict, and a 21-15 win from North started the season auspiciously. Then came the hectic 25-20 struggle with Commerce. Classical was leading until the final minutes, when a Commercialite dropped several consecutive baskets for his victory and our defeat. Losses at the hands of the undefeated 'Trade and St. John's quintets followed. South eked out a 16-14 victory, but in the next game Captain Billy Sullivan inspiringly scored 24 points to aid a 34-18 Classical victory over North. Following Billy's good example, Tom Decker, Tweet'l Decker and Lambi Adams starred in overcoming Tech seconds and Clark seconds. Owing to the team's creditable record, the Classical entry for the Worcester Tech tournament was accepted. During the tournament, a sparkling Classical victory over the well organized Northbridge High School team was outstanding. In the semi- finals, Classical was pitted against Commerce, the ultimate winners, and gave the champions a real battle. Such fine, sportsmanlike athletes as Captain Billy Sullivan, Tom and Percy Decker and Lambi Adams should make outstanding college players of whom all can be proud. Baseball The representatives of Classical on the baseball diamond gave a very creditable showing of themselves this year. With inexperienced players in eight of the nine positions, the first game was played against South. A 10-6 defeat evidently stirred the team's pride, for in the next two games the batters fell upon opposing pitchers for twenty-two runs, to gain consecutive victories over Becker's and North. In the following two contests, veteran Commerce and Trade nines defeated Classical by close scores. The team returned to the winning column in avenging a previous defeat admin- istered by South. Behind Targonski's masterful pitching, South was held to two runs, while Classical scored seven. A pitchers' battle between lgnatovich of Classical and Parker of St. John's was the feature of our next game, which resulted in a heart- breaking 3-2 Classical defeat. For a second time, North succumbed to Classical by the overwhelming score of 15-2. In this game, t'Jerry Guertin and Paul Shannon performed brilliantly, both in the field and at bat. The same could be said of catcher Jack', Maher's play for the season. An out-of-town game at Fitchburg ended in an 8-3 defeat. The last game of the season against Commerce, inter-high champions, resulted in a glorious 5-2 Classical victory. Next year also, the team should be a winner, owing to the fact that only one regular will be lost by graduation. To Coach Cantwell goes much praise for his work in guiding the 1929 baseball team, i621 TRACK TEAM E631 Girls, B a sketball What could be a better way of describing the past season in ' 'X basketball than to point to the gleaming W , emblem of hard Y work, team-play, and true Classical spirit? Under the splendid leadership of our championship captain, Kay Thurston, the team fzgftig' battled its way to a tie with North for first place in the inter-high , , series. The team started the series off in the right manner by defeat- ing South, 19-17. Our team played unusually well and even at that early stage, showed promise of being the best varsity that had played for Classical in several years. In the second game, North crept up in the second half and beat us to the tune of 33-20. Betty O'Toole, manager of the team, provided the brilliant shot of the day, when she caged a neat two-point basket from very near the center of the iioor. In a game full of thrills, we defeated Commerce, 24-23. Again the vivacious Betty O'Toole provided the high-light in the game by tallying a two-pointer, a fraction of a second before the whistle blew, giving us a one-point win. In the sec- ond round of the series, Commerce and South were taken into camp by the persever- ing Classical lassies by the scores of 36-21, and 32-16 respectively. The high-light in games came in tne Classical-North combat. Perhaps the score, 24-23, can best pic- ture the rivalry, enthusiasm, and determination of the Classical players, who were giving their all to bring the championship to their school. No need to mention that Classical was on the long end of that 24-23 score! This highly successful varsity team was composed of Kay Thurston, captaing Betty OyToole, manager, Betty McDermott, Mary Miller, Al Lawton, and Grace Taylor, regulars, Dorothy Samp- son, Virginia Houghton, Doris Tucker, and Ruth Damerell were subs In the inter-high inter-class games, the team representing the class of '31 won the championship. In this team, Classical has a bright outlook for the coming years. Congratulations, Miss Whitin, on your splendid teams. They certainly did you justice. Track In cross country, Francis Sullivan, a sophomore, placed fifth in the short run and second in the long one, giving Mr. Cantwell a pleasant surprise. Paul Sullivan, Frank Calcagni, and Joseph Dworman earned their C's in these races. When indoor track came into its own, Classical showed its real stuff, In the inter-high meet, our runners, who were expected to bring up in the rear, placed sec- ond. Ed Farmer was the star from Classical, scoring ten points: first in the 220, tied for first in the twenty-live yard hurdles, and fourth in the high jump. John Davis set a new record for the Junior High in the Hquartern and tied for second in the 220. Shannon copped second place in the twenty-yard dash, while Martin came in third in the mile. Our relay team, Davis, Farmer, Shannon, and Solomon, made a new record for the Junior High. At the Tech Inter-scholastics and at New Hampshire State, Ed Farmer placed second in the pole vault, opening the outdoor season. In the inter-high games at the Fair Grounds, Ed again showed his ability when he took first in the pole vault, setting a new, all-time record, and placed second in the high hurdles. Loomis gave Classical another first in the mile. Black placed third in the t'century and broad jump, and tied for fourth with Chamberlain in the pole vault. Shannon took first in the low hurdles, and John Davis came in third in the Hquarterj' while Anderson heaved his way to fourth in the shot put. E641 HOCKEY TEAM TENNIS TEAM Girls, Hockey Although our girls did not win the hockey championship and the coveted W's , still, they ranked second in the inter-high series, which is no mean place. The squad, under the leadership wx of Mary Miller, captain, and Betty', McDermott, manager, was QM, composed of the following: f'Kay Thurston, Virginia Houghton, 6 B Cynthia Crosby, Bea Belcher, Betty O'Toole, Helen Bush, Isabel Pazeian, Al Lawton, Charlotte Hanson, Marjorie Ryan, Doris Tucker, and Dot Sampson. The season opened October eleventh against North, the outcome of the game being 4-0, with North on the long end of the score. This game predicted that the girls had a hard fight before them, but they were equal to it. The first Classical-South game proved to be a thriller. The players raced from one end of the field to the other, first South scoring and then Classical. The excitement was intense up to the last minute, when South tied the score, 2-2. The first game with Commerce was by far the best game of the season: it was a bitter battle to the end. When the half ended, the score stood 1-0 in our favor, owing to a goal shot by one of our star players, Kay Thurston, but luck was with the Blue and Gold, and the game ended in a tie. North and the number 4 seemed to be our Waterloo. In a second encounter with North and Commerce, we were vanquished by the SCO1'QS of 4-2, and 4-1, re- spectively. A gratifying climax to an interesting season was our last game with South. With a seemingly handicapped team, our girls crowned themselves with glory, by defeating the lassies from Main-South, 4-3. Tennis When the tennis season opened, about forty-five of our girls tried out for the inter-high series. In the semi-finals, Celia Nader defeated Betty Greenwood 6-1, 6-0, and Kay Thurston was worsted by Mary Miller in a game of which the score was 6-3, 7-5. In the finals, Celia was victorious over Mary by a score of 6-3, 6-4. Celia won the school championship for the third time, and as a result, had her name en- graved upon the school cup. The tennis team was chosen as follows: Mary Miller, captain, Celia Nadler, Ruth Nadler, Betty Greenwood, Kay Thurston, Nettie Guer- witz, Kathleen Horgan, Gertrude Budish, Alice Lawton. The first inter-high game was played against South, May 27th. The contestants and scores were as follovvs: Mary Miller versus Marjorie Jensen, 6-3, 4-6, 3-65 Ruth Nadler versus Gladys Miller, 7-5, 6-05 Celia Nadler versus Molly Yeaton, 6-3, 6-2. Needless to say, we were victorious. On June 5th, occurred our second game, this time played against Commerce High with the following results: Celia Nadler versus Agnes Lovejoy, 6-4, 4-6, 6-1, Mary Miller versus Mary Donovan, 6-1, 6-15 Ruth Nadler versus Margaret O'Sullivan, 6-1, 6-0. Again we were the victors. The final game was fought out on June 12th with the North High girls. The results were as follows: Celia Nadler versus Katherine Fitzgerald, 6-2, 6-1, Mary Miller versus Zivart Markaranian, 9-11, 6-85 Ruth Nadler versus Azniv Markaranian, 2-6, 1-6. In losing this game, we lost the championship, but the showing made by our players was most gratifying. The largest share of the credit for the success of our girls should be given to our clever coach, Miss Whitin. Efifil CLASSICAL HIGH SCHOOL 1' A Hl XlWL. THAT Ymow , ROUND.

Jan decided to leave not only a good athletic record but also an excellent scholastic one in the annals of Classical. The records are just as he wished to have them. We know him as a jolly, good, all-around sport, and the teachers know him as a student of no mean ability. The world that knows him later may discover other traits, but they can only be the perseverance, the patience, the loy- alty and the courtesy that are the outstanding fea- tures of Jan's personality.

Ed wandered into Classical from Sever Street Prep, in the fall of 1925, and has been an active member of the class of '29 ever since. Besides be- ing a good student, he certainly has the knack of getting acquainted. He is especially interested in a certain member of the fair sex in a corner room on the second floor.

He came here quietly, worked here quietly, and is leaving here quietly. Good luck, Charlie ! MARAGUE RITE OLIVE BRIDGHAM KIPEGYY HMIDGEH Variety is the spice of life. Because Peg's hair is long, is no reason for ranking her among the old-fashioned girls. On the contrary, she is often rather frivolous. Who has not heard her sparkling laughter, or witnessed some of her amusing pranks? However, as Mrs, Field- ing in The Cricket on the Hearth, she showed herself capable of acting the part of a prim and staid lady--at least it seemed so to the audience. Peg carries with her our best wishes for a happy future. Pythagorean Club, Science Club, Green Room Club, Senior Play, Student Council, Basketball. MARGARET GEORNGINA BRIGGS MPEG!!

Leo is the star mathematician of the class. When- ever a problem in algebra or geometry has to be solved, one has only to look for Leo.

We are confident that he will uphold Classical's reputation at Tech next fall. Good luck, Leo! Orchestra A, Band, Consolidated Orchestra.

His conscientiousness and ability assure him the success we all wish him. MARGARET GERTRUDE CHANDLEY PEGGY When Irish eyes are smiling. Irish eyes are pretty, especially blue ones. There isn't an awful lot of Peggy to love, but what there is of her, we do love.

Throughout his high school course, he has backed his class and rooted for Classical. Mathematics is his real hobby, and he is also quite a carpenter,-in fact, we understand he builds houses during the summer vacations. Thus we hope that when he completes his course at Worcester Tech, he will combine his two professions and maintain Classica1's prestige. Pythagorean Club.

HENRIETTA AGNES GALLAGHER HE'NRI,' A charming maid with charmfng ways. Although Henri tries very hard to convince us that she'd rather do anything than go to school, it can't be done. It takes more than mere attendance to be a member of the honor roll, and she has reached that achievement more than once. Henri is pos- sess-ed of that splendid reserve of many studious people, which in no way hinders her ambition. She has chosen a very difficult and creditable career, that of being a nurse. We wish her much luck and happiness. Botany Club. MARY ETHEL GILLIGAN FKETHELY!

To Ethel we wish the best of luck and supreme success in the future. Botany Club, Agassiz Club. ISSJ ISAIAH G-INSBURG :KSHYH The greiat artist is the s'implifier. Shy came to us from Boston, a few years ago, and although rather quiet in his work, he has sup- ported his class faithfully.

Shy intends to continue at the Worcester Art Museum School in the fall. He has our very best wishes for the future. LIBBY CHARLOTTE CLICK LIBBY 4'Quiet and sedate wus she. Quiet, demure, smiling Libby surely has en- deared herself to many during her four years' stay at Classical. To the unfortunate ones, who do not find themselves her friends, Libby seems to be too demure, but We fortunates have discovered that she is as merry and happy-go-lucky, on occasions, as any flapper in school.

Although he is inclined to be bashful and quiet, he is a student of whom Classi- cal may well be proud. Keep up the good work at Clark, Gus ! Stamp Club, Science Club, Pythagorean Club. CATHERINE CLAYRE SULLIVAN KAY UKATRINKAN HKATHYH And hair at sunlight yellow, And eyes a mornivlg blue. KayH has been with us only one semester, and yet she can boast of more friends than many who have been at Classical for four years. She is just as sweet and lovable as her picture suggests. Con- sidering her success at Classical, she undoubtedly left a long line of broken hearts at South. Her chief delight is in basketball, not as a player, but, as she says, a thrilled and delighted spectator. Our love and best wishes, Kay l WILLIAM PATRICK SULLIVAN HBILLH SULLY The best of sports and pals. VVhether the call is signals or batter up, or whether, instead of a call, it is the whistle to start or end a period in basketball, HBill is there, giving his best for Classical. Many a victory may be at- tributed to his lighting spirit, for often facing de- feat, his adamant will inspired his teammates to greater achievements, which ultimately brought victory. May like successes await him in the game of life! Football, Basketball, Baseball fcaptain, '28l.

EVELYN ELVIRA TAGGERT HTOODLESH A maiden never bold, of a spirit still and quiet, Tood1es came to our school from Shrewsbury High School in her junior year. Because of this fact, she has not had an opportunity to make many friends. However, those to whom she is known realize what a perfect pal she makes. t'Toodles' hobby is readingg probably that is where she has gleaned so much knowledge. What she intends to do has not been revealed, but we are certain that she will succeed. SOLOMON TASHLITSKY axTURKrJ uSOLu c:TASHx1 '4SmiIe and the world smiles with you. Junior High sent us MSCI, who during his three years here has made many friends. Sol dotes on writing poetry,-in fact he writes and writes and writes! Most of his verses deal with the fair sex, especially one of the variety ccwhom gentlemen prefer. Unlike most poets, he is not always the dreamer, as his class work proves. We expect to hear more from Sol and his poems.

Joe has few moments of rest, and yet he does all his Work without complaint. He made the foot- ball and baseball teams, but, unfortunately for Classical, resigned because of lack of time for practice. One of HJoe's hobbies is public speak- ing. The untiring efforts he has made in declairn- ing and debating contests in the school are charac- teristic of Joe's spirit. Holy Cross will receive a hustler when he enters next fall. C. H. S. D.

She has participated in all the girls, athletic contests, captaining the basketball team and the championship hockey team.

The tranquility with which this boy has lived during his four years at Classical has left him somewhat out of the limelight. Yet we always find t'Joe ready in a pinch. To those who know him well, he has proved to be a steadfast friend. We have observed that the quiet, unassuming person often progresses in the world, that Joe will give his best at all times we feel confident. SAMUEL ABRAHAM WEINBERG HSAMMYH Sport that wrinkled care deiides And lauglztei' holding both his side-S. Sammy is the kind of boy that you want around to keep you happy. He is always making humorous remarks or demonstrating some new dance step. He does love to dance! It is fortunate that he is graduating, however, or undoubtedly the 'tgymn would have to be furnished with a new Hoor if he attended many more dances there. Sammyi' is clever, toog we believe Mr. Arey will some day take the credit for training the famous physicist, Samuel Weinberg. Science Club, Pythagorean Club, CLASSIC MYTHS Cbusiness boardj. FLORENCE FISHER VVHITCOMB HFLOSSU FLOSSIE 'ALrcugh and the world laughs with you. Flossie was among those who came into Clas- sical from Sever Street Prep, in 1925. She has always been active in school affairs, especially in Classical's club life. With a smile for everyone, she is certainly popular and welcome at every school function. 'tFlossie admits that business is her main objective. We are confident that some busi- ness college will receive an excellent student in the fall.

Ever popular and ever charming, she has taken an active part in extra-curriculum activities. Her fine act- ing in our senior play was especially delightful.

MARION BAKER WILLIAMS With ca smile on her Zipsf' Marion was one of Abbot Street School's con- tributions to the class of '29. With her ready smile she has won her way into the hearts of many, we also like her rusty complexion. Although we were not aware of it, the Aletheia surely knows that she is an eloeutionist. Somehow, we believe that Marion will like Middlebury, her prospective alma mater. Aletheia, Pythagorean Club, Green Room Club. ETHEL WILSON ETHEL Is she 'not passing fCL'l:'l'?H Ethel's winning smile and twinkling, brown eyes are two of the reasons why so many of us are loathe to leave Classical, and be separated from her after these four, short years of friendship. Popularity is Ethel's middle name, and her success as a pianist has won her even more renown and many admirers. The ways of the world are vari- ous and many, but Ethel is sure to travel only the shining ones.

Frank, like Addison's Spectator, has Hdistine guished himself by a most profound silence. His taciturnity, we are convinced, is due to his modesty and bashfulness. Nevertheless, he goes about his business with confidence and precision. Those of us who have come in contact with this unassuming youth, Wish him the best of luck after graduation. FRANCIS CHARLES CARROLL WISNIEVVSKI WISH HTILG cynosnre of ll6'l'gl7,b0I 'iTLg eyes. Wish is a manly member of our football squad. He is very popular With the fair sex and has the peculiar hobby of shaking UD hands with every girl he meets. Wish really is studious, though, and any fourth hour, one may find him in Room 6, strug- gling bravely with Virgil. 'tWish likes to dance, so his car is artistically ornamented with souvenirs from the various Classical hops, Football. CHARLES WOLK CHARLIE A second Pythagorus, in truth. Hail to our geometry shark ! The solving of problems in triangles, parallelograms and trapezoids is as easy to 'ACharlie as reciting the A B C's. His skill in mathematics has resulted in his being elected a member of the Pythagorean Club. Though quiet and unobtrusive, f'Charlie has acquired many friends who will miss him. He intends to go to Tech, Where he is sure to Find his proper niche.

She seems to be one of those lucky students who can be successful in everything. In addition to preparing her lessons faithfully, she takes part in extra-curriculum work, and finds plenty of time for tennis. We know she'll be a great success at Normal School.

Zalansky has not been conspicuous at Classical in any of its clubs, but he is an all 'round good man to have within our ranks, and although he has not gone out for sports much here, he is very fond of running, and has been active in that sport at the Worcester Boys' Club. In English, Zalansky is especially clever at picking out metaphors. Ask Mr. Howeg he knows! The class of '29 extends its best wishes to Adolph. BENJAMIN ZARR BENNY Good nature precedes all oi1't1.ces. If ever a medal was given for good nature, it should go to 'tBenny. It's positively criminal the way the girls attack him at recess for help in Latin UD. Some people have all the luck! Besides being a Latin shark, he is entranced by English, and I'm sure he could improve much on Hamlet , ask Miss Shaughnessy! Benny has made many friends at Classical. Next year he will enter the Boston College of Pharmacy. ' Lisoj A f .....l- V V H ,-....Y Y , W - -V - , ..,.., ,......... .... .... X h,..,..,..,..

Stan is always seen with a smile on his face, especially if some member of the female sex hap- pens to address him. Blushes, we think, are very becoming to him. Although extremely quiet while in class, Stan talks enough outside to make up for it. No one has been able to discover what his plans for the future are. We are confident that his smile will smooth away all the rough places in the future. CHARLES MARTIN BOOTH CHARLIE GENERAL HA 'merry heart has he. We ask Charlie, in his good-naturedness, to pardon the error which caused this late entry. As long' as he is among us, however, the old gang will be satisfied. Charlie's earnestness has made him popular with all the fellows, and how they cheered when his stalwart line play on the gridiron proved so instrumental in checking opposing backs! Keep up the good work, and success will be yours, Charlie ! Science Club, Glee Club, Football. STANISLAUS ANTHONY BULAK STEVE There is nothing more powcv ful than silence Steve, for the greater part of his years here has so quietly made his way about the corridors that quite a number of his classmates have not had the pleasure of making his acquaintance.
