XVednesday, the day of separation, we shall meet to participate in a more solemn program. It is a pleasant custom that provides this happy day-a Class Day, of the class, for the class, and by the class. XVho of us has not looked forward longingly, perhaps fearfully, to its pleasantries? And to these festivities we welcome most cordially our parents, our teachers, ' and our friends. To our parents we extend a special welcome. For yours has been the task of keeping us physically Fit and moulding our characters to make better men and women. You have sent us here for the cultivation of . . . DIXVID POWER our minds. YNe now have our opportunity to express President to you our true appreciation of your never failing love and sacrifice. To you, faithful teachers, we owe, in large measure, any intellectual advance we have made. The far- reaching effects of your training in precision of thought and expression, in habits of study. and in reasoning, it is impossible for us to estimate. You have worked long hours instructing, encouraging, and guiding us toward this eventful day. VVe are grateful to you all. Our pathways from this day on, dear classmates, are going to diverge. Four years we have been building together yet preparing to go on separately to take up new tasks. But they have been four happy years, these in which we have come to know each other. May the memory of our high school days be light with encouragement in whatever the future holds! And so once again may I welcome, on behalf of the Class of 1932, our parents, our teachers, and our friends to this Class Day-a review of our past and a forecast of our future. Tbrrtefn Class History RIENDS and fellow-students, I know that the 'T V subject of history is a delicate one, and I heartily sympathize with those of you who are even now struggling through preparation for college boards in the subject, but as tax-payers and tax-payers-to-be, I feel that you will be interested in the proposition I am about to make. Perhaps the proposal is even more delicate than the subject, it concerns the present course in history at Classical High School. Feeling as I do, that the course as it stands, is hardly long enough and not nearly complete enough, I suggest that the follow- ing history, the history of the Classus de Triginta Dua, - n which we shall call the nation, both for convenience Dokornv CUPIT and because in actuality it was one, be added to the - - Hzstorzan course in United States History. Naturally you will be better judges of the practicality of such a step when you have heard it, so I shall read it to you. In the fall of 1928, the last year of prosperity, three races migrated to the Land of Classical High School, and by colonization, began the arduous task of building a nation. As in all cases of migration, there must be a reason strong enough to induce a people to leave the old familiar landmarks, and this reason was not lacking in this instance. The fundamental reason-you remember that there are fundamental as well as direct causes for national movements-was the desire for 'AI-Iigher Educationf' In some of the mem- bers this reason was evident from the first-for who can doubt the intellectual intentions of Annette Dubuc or Norman Coyle? Then too, we have ample evidence of a keen desire for social diversion when we consider the cases of Katherine Lever or Richard Keenan. In fact the direct causes of the immigration were as many and as varied as 'KBilly,' Maher's belts, but irrespective of their reasons for coming, the fact that they did is what makes this history possible, and for that, if for nothing else, the nation should be commended. Origins are always important, and often interesting, but in the history of a people, the origin of its members becomes a deciding factor in determining the national powers and achievements of that people. This nation, although perhaps it still had its doubts as to whether it would ever reach that state in truth, was comprised of three distinct races, first the hill people, migrating from Vernon and Providence hills, and the wilds of the Tatnuck Range. The love of liberty and adventure long associated with mountaineers was evident from the beginning in their aggressive representatives, Dave Porter and LeMoyne Bur- leigh. It was from these people that the nation gained their invincible spirit, and desire for independence which went so far toward bringing the change in government later. F ourleefz A OCLASSKC O Q65 Q iwsgraraasn Cs 3 gg Second, there were the coastal tribes, immigrants from Lake Quinsigamond, the Paxton Navy Yard, Patches, Mill and Elm Ponds, who brought their traditional love for the sea and the instinctive question f'Sink or Swimf, They've kept pretty much in the swim,', as witness Tugl' Strong's aquatic prowess. Two of the members from the Navy Yard were inconsiderate enough to desert our fair land just before this edition went to press, so we shall designate them as sunk.', Third, we have the inhabitants of the the Lowlands, who contributed their friendly instincts and love of order. Yes, they all kept their desks scrupulously neat when they were a young nation, even Tom Bowen. The amalgamation of these peoples produced a nation whose importance and influence cannot be lightly re- garded. The reception of the nation into the Land by the Principal and his friendly greeting in behalf of the Facultas accompanied the announcement that the nation would be under a protectorate. As the people had no objections, or if they had, no civil rights to support them, they calmly, even timidly, acquiesced to all statements and commands. The first order of the government concerned the granting of land for the first settlement. The people were assigned to separate lands on the mountain-tops, where their fine spirit was considerably drilled, if not irreparably harmed, by the constant necessity of mountain climbing, which was doubly hard for those not hardened to the ordeal. I have even heard, recently, vociferous remarks in any quantity exploded by a certain red-headed tackle, on the reducing qualities of the mountain paths. As time went on, however, the nation moved to lower ground and Finally reached that Paradise on Earth, the first floor, and the accompanying privilege of lounging on the radiators. Remember outside Room 4- Billy Maher, Randy Creswell, and Bill Barros- and decorating the opposite end of the hall- lack Robertson, 'LSammy Waxler, g'Mike Wilson, and the other bulletin-board addicts. The change in abode wrought a correspondingly great change in the general character of the nation. The people developed characteristics surprisingly opposite to the traits noticeable on their migration. An increasing air of superiority possessed them. They were hardly recognizable as the timid, self-effacing, acquiescing colonists of four years before. In this first settlement, the nation was so devoted to the pursuit of individual recognition --even then Rita Mullan was known for shyness and Helen Cate could not be silenced- that little or nothing was done about the national reputation. Remember what a good little boy Mandal Segal was? And Anne Chandley was so shy-what a difference just a few years make! The timidity which was so conspicuous on the nation's advent and was even traceable in its second and very dimly in its third year, finally vanished completely and a general air of daring and self-sufficiency took its place. Have you noticed the way Iean Mac walks or shall we say swaggers? And have you ever seen Leo run across the corridor to rebuke a newly arrived colonist for running across the corridorsrv The most noticeable feature of the nation as a whole in its youth, perhaps, was the apparent desire to beat the janitor to school. VVhether this was due to love for the sch-ool or an Fifteen ioceruaeessncs 0 Q65 0 Miyariiaies e --- a X2 ardent desire not to be late, we do not know, but it is a known fact that the people were in the building at 7:30! As time went on, however, the hour of arrival also went on and it became a kind of game to see how near one could come to being late without actually having to see Mr. O,Regan. Some of the inhabitants became quite adept at the art. Prob- ably the record goes to Muriel Manning who, in thirty days, came in at 8.142 twenty- nine times and only missed the thirtieth by the barest fraction of a second. Strange how human the Facultas became after the colonists had been in the land four years! Why one of the nationalists Cwe might even say socialistsj has been known to say g'Good morningl' to one of the teachers when he knew he hadnit done his homework. Imagine such a thing four years ago! But he had always done his homework then. That's another custom that practically disappeared in the later years, the habit of carrying books home. It used to be six a day, now it's an average of one a week, or two if it's nearing the ten or twenty-week presentation of the tragedy entitled '4Marking Reports. The existing government at the time of the advent of the nation was in the form of a tolerant and fairly lenient protectorate. The chief protector ruled under the title, Principal, and was ably assisted by a willing and, at times, even over-zealous board, the Facultas. As time went on, however, and as the inhabitants became more accustomed to the country and more confident of their own powers, they grew restless and sought a new form of government more directly representative of themselves. The ideals of the people were high and they determined upon a pure democracy. They elected four officers, a President, Vice-President, Secretary, and Treasurer, who were to be chosen once a year. The nomin- ations revealed several ufavorite sonsu but the election resulted in the inauguration of David Power, a dark horsel' of the deepest dye, as chief executive, and Barbara Gilmore, Barbara Gibbs, and Charles Keenan as right-hand men. In the next election, in 1930, the party stood on its past record, and David Power, whose choice of neckwear rendered him invincible fthey say there is something hypnotic about colorj, again emerged chief magistrate. The year brought a change in the cabinet, however, and saw the installation of Gonda Chevalier, Sibyl Gould, and William Maher as Board of Advisers. During this administration, two commissions were appointed, one to arrange and make a success of a dance, to be called the Iunior Prom, and one to decorate the hall for the departure of the last nation. Timn Clifford managed the Him, and contrary to all laws of commissions, it actually did fulfill its purpose, the other one seemed to grow overnight from its original membership of Hve to a Final total of a dozen. Perhaps decorating the hall is more work than we thought. Ask Leo, Iean, Brooksie,', Segal, or Power. Although the nation as a whole did not yet realize it, a gradual change in government was becoming noticeable. Sixteen -CLASSES 0 C65 - iwisfamigales -g Cs X ' e 9 X-Z The reins of government were slowly, but surely, falling into the hands of one man, Dippyl' Power, whose genial personality and talent for leadership easily won him a na- tional reputation. The democratic ideals of the masses gave way to the rising power of a dictator, and though the motions of an election were gone through in 1932, the result was generally admitted to be 'Lin the bag. After the election of Power for his third term, the nation became conscious of the fact that their precious democracy had faded, that it was merely a name, and that they were confronted with the feat of coping with a dictator- and they liked it! When Power, with the clemency characteristic of dictators Cyes, there is a king in Italyl, generously gave his consent to the appointment of executive boards, we and they understood, of course, that their duties were merely nominal. This hoard consisted of Gonda Chevalier, Vice-President, for a second term, Sibyl Gould, Secretary of State, likewise a re-elected candidate, and William Leonard, Secretary of the Treasury, a finan- cial genius, who became prominent through his money lending. Perhaps the presence of Leonard was felt more keenly because of his dog-like devotion to his duty of collecting money from the tax-payers. The final administration was extremely popular and regard- less of the general economic situation QI couldn't get away wfthout mentioning itj went over with a bang! In spite of the violent, vehement, and vituperative accusations of Nathan Shapiro, the evidence of graft and corruption were very slight, and as a rule were not of such a nature as to awaken general condemnation. The Hnances of the nation were in a rather deplorable state at the beginning of the fourth term, and there was some anxiety about balancing the budget. In the midst of these unsettled times, a meeting of the nation was held, during which the people listened dutifully to statistics and recently compiled Figures of economic experts, which proved beyond the possibility of a doubt that the nation was in no condition to publish a year book, as it would require an increase in taxes. How- ever, with the perversity characteristic of youth and inexperience, the people voted unani- mously for the publication. Were we surprised when something over 35500.00 for adver- tisements was painlessly extracted from the Worcester merchants by Muriel Manning and Gertrude Budish? Legislative assemblies occurred frequently, and toward the end of the administration the nation was deeply occupied with marching-oh, such marching-no wonder we are all humming the March of the Wooden Soldiers in our sleep! The people of the nation were suited to many occupations, due to the diversity of their training and the variety of their associations. They showed their adaptability by imme- diately becoming initiated into the favorite activities. A list of the more important in- cluded chatting, chiseling, chewing, cheating, cheering, ad finftum, but an extensive economic survey of the nation revealed the fact that the chief industry was farming. The Seventeen game-teatssssnre Q Q Q iwsfagemaes U3 g-Q people, with the true spirit of husbandmen, cultivated the soil of the brain far into the aight, in fact the midnight oil was in great demand, in a more or less vain endeavor for Food for Thought. They sowed countless seeds of study hours, hoed infinite rows of alge- bra problems, English themes, history maps, and language translations. They passed through droughts, when ideas and inspirations were few and far between. QWas Libby Goff full of ideas for that last theme? You ask her.j They suffered from plagues, when marks fell thick and fast, and so many gallant attempts to save the crop failed. These plagues were as regular as the first of the month and as unavoidable as taxes. Finally the people reaped a harvest of Knowledge. At least they say so, and we have their word. Social life, by actual statistics, occupied seventy-five per cent of the time and energies of seventy-hve per cent -of the inhabitants of the nation. The social instincts changed from a desire for individual amusement, which was popular in the first years, to a herd instinct. The people began to join the established clubs, which were almost as numerous as the eyes of the Argus. Agassiz with Laskohf as Prexy,', had a successful year, viewing many in- teresting sights, such as sausage makingf, PythagU devoted its time to mathematical mazes. Aletheia decided what the masterpieces of modern literature were, and, in spite of this, the critics are still arguing about the relative worth of I. M. Ariter and I. Ritu. The Stamp Club got all stuck up. President Sullivan, sooch a fellow, led Green Room through its paces. The athletes of the nation were instrumental in bringing a champion- ship in every sport to the land of 1931. As representatives, they had George Brooks, a speedy track star, Bill Lajousky, a heavy line-man and shot-put point-winner, Pete Kar- powich, a fancy basket shooter, Francis Fitzsimmons, dependable on the diamond, Dave Porter, long-legged racket wielderg and 'LStan Schorr, a diminutive cheer leader. UI-Iortw Crosby and Sibyl Gould won laurels for the nation in both hockey and basketball, and Gertrude Budish and Barbara Gilmore, in tennis. The Class Games on Field Day was the social event of the athletic year and brought out gayly colored frocks and paper-trimmed cars in great quantities. The three dances given by the nation must be included in the social events, and perhaps from the checking-room angle they were. 'LFritz', Prentice was voted national social hound, but he was by no means a lone hound, he had a pack of company. This nation, let it be known, was essentially a cultural one and went in for the arts. Their fort was literature, and that much-to-be-prized privilege, freedom of the press, was given them when willing Macl' took over the berth left vacant by 'lChet,' Eaton. Of course, like many another enterprising sheet, the ffrgus went Htabloidf, Did I mention that Laskoff and Segal were on the editorial board? In spite of this, Dick', Leary and Eighlecn ZOCLASSHC Q Q65 Q iwarraeii-aes Q 9 gt xx Popl' Lane did much through their monthly contributions to try to add a high-brow flavor to the paper. One amusing thing was the decline of the Forum. The voice of the people grew hoarse and finally died a natural death. The fact that the people did not even mind the loss of their voice showed how completely they were under the spell of their dictator. ln speaking of the literary works of the nation, it would be well to remark about the tests and themes. Some were certainly works of art. Theresa Kowalcyzk should frame her English 7 and 8 papers in platinum. And history tests, did you ever see the volumes Fred Plimpton wrote? But those words-then too, some of the geometry papers were really elegant pieces of work. It is no use denying the literary tendencies of the nation, they showed astounding possibilities. As artists, they had few equals, and some of the desks in Rooms 4 through 9, to say nothing of others carved in the pioneer days of the nation, bore mute testimony to the embryo Phidias among them. Thanks to g'Dave'l Hardy, Leo Laskofi, and 'LRed Shean there will be many cases of lost temper among posterity. And while hurriedly writing a theme, someone's pencil will tear through the paper at the place where Budl' Smith spent a twenty-week course laboriously digging his name. The cartooning of the walls, however, was lost when some plebian, unversed in the recognition of true art, washed and painted the entire interior of the building, destroy- ing any number of invaluable first works of future artists. Tim Clifford and Charles Kiljancyzk, exponents of the art of self-expression through the medium of song, gave some performance in The Maid and the Middyf, that merely differed from Lawrence Tibbetts' in degree and not in kind. It was their first public appearance as song-birds, and they were probably as nervous as the rest of the cast which included PlutoU Leonard, Doris Bradley, Tom' Stoskus and Iohn Delaney. Henry Mieczkowski played the part of a senior-worshipping freshman-I wonder how he feels about them now F-and Dotl' Kash- man was a i'Snow Child. The following year, they presented the Count and the Co- ed.'y Their dramatic as well as vocal performances were beyond expectations and it was pronounced an operatic success. The annual Pop Concerts inaugurated in the second year of the nation became one of the anticipated social events of the year. The ability of thc musical organizations was not left to the imagination, it was proudly displayed by the nation at all times. The spoken word also had its devotees. The nation first gave a representative to the legitimate stage when Leo Laskoff went gray over-night and became Dr. Sontagg in The Tailor-Made Manf' A year later, when they had reached a point of dramatic excellence, the nation sponsored the annual Senior Playf' They solved the riddle Why Smith Left Home. Marjorie Brown and Andy'l Brosnihan played Mr. and Mrs. Smith, while Davy Power adopted a moustache and French accent, as Zee Ni I1 clean floertaeessre Q Qi Q Msgvrms Q J gg General, long enough to persuade Gonda, the cute little maid, to help him forget his over- bearing wife, Katherine Lever. ' As well as intellectual minds, this nation, like all great nations, had its quota of distin- guished people, but because that list would be so lengthy, it must be left until some future date when a second volume may be added to this manuscript. Since that second volume has not yet been written, we now come to the end of our history, and to the nation upon which it was based, and since you see how necessary this history is to the proper and thorough training of a student in United States History, I am sure that I shall have no difficulty in persuading the school committee to sanction its immediate adoption. The nation is dissolved and each member is about to become an integral part of a much greater nation. But the people have ceased to be only so far as this history is concerned, they are still very much alive, alive with hopes and dreams and ambitions of which you will hear shortly. qc 1 ' W 5 iw tif? ... f Q' T QI! - Esbfs' A N' :L ' 'ig q wy 2'g,3 - Twenfy Class Prophecy E, the class of 1932, are now gathered together ' V in the sumptuously appointed auditorium of ' the new Classical High School, two years after its erection in 1950. QThe prophecy is already becoming a fairy tale.Q The occasion is the twentieth anniver- sary of the class's graduation. The reunion commit- tee has decided this year to inform the class of the activities of each alumnus by purchasing from the various news reel companies shots taken during the past year of groups of the class on different occa- sions.

Ready? Here we go! NVait-l have to adjust my own imagination Hrst-all right-let's gol POLITICAL MENS BANQUET Of paramount interest during the past year has been the political campaign for the Presidency of the United States. In the hrst scene we see a political banquet in St. Louis. The hall is redolent with the fumes of cigar smoke and blue with the vituperations of the expressive politicians. Seated at the table on either side of one of the many Demo- cratic possibilities for President, Mr. David Power, we see many notables nervously finger- ing the tableware, awaiting their chance to orate in favor of the repeal of the 18th amend- ment, which is still a plank in the Democratic platform. William Maher, big oil magnate. and chairman of the party committee, is whispering to Louis Shack, high-pressure sales- man of pink pajamas. lt looks like a connivance to us. Mr. Power is about to open up the pot of oyster stew, cooked by that famous chef, Tommy'l Bowen, of the Ritzdorf, Astoria. Look! Suddenly out pops from the depths of the huge stew, a human figurel Ye gods, it is Mandal Segal, popping up as usual when most unwanted. What is he saying?- I, Mr. Segal, Republican candidate for the Presidency, accuse the Democratic party of putting noodles in the soup, instead of what was asked for, cheese blintzeslv -Segal's terrible accusation is greeted with a roar of disapproval, from the midst of which we easily distinguish the famed raucous razzberry of those two Davis Cup stars, Dave Porter and Charlie Prentice. Twrfzfy-one ZDOCLASSHC Q KQ3 Q MYTMS Q 3 G, if' ' WOMENTS POLITICAL CONVENTION And now let us have a glimpse at a few scenes of the political convention held in Detroit this year by the enterprising women of these United States, who have deserted both the Republican and Democratic parties because the prohibition plank is so worn that they demand a fresh coat of paint for it. You are gazing at a beautifully appointed salon-decorated by many silken gowned ladies lounging about in various attitudes of the usual feminine indolence, some of them powdering their noses, some gazing intently into mirrors, and others arranging and rear- ranging their hair. A few are actually listening to the party boss, Ianith Finlayson, who is diligently trying to spend her husbandls well-earned money by financing the Feminist Party. You hear Ianith discussing the qualifications of the two candidates for the party nominations:- You know, girls, Miss Cupit made a hole-in-one two years ago. She is especially well fitted for the Presidency. But then Miss Gilmore caught thirteen trout up in Maine last year. She could do quite as well as Dot. Oh dear, oh dear, girls, what a problem! I really cawn't decide on one of themlw At this statement of indecision, the prominent delegation leaders, Theresa Kowalczyk, from the State of Ineptitude, Ledwina Healy, from the State of Indolence, Mary Fleming, from the State of Irresponsibility, and Helen McCarthy, from the State of Continual Agitation, rise and promenade about the room in order to concentrate better on the tremendous problem facing them. The cam- paign managers of Dot and Babs, Eleanor Murphy and Martha Reardon, confer excitedly in a corner as to what shall be done, and finally you see and hear them suggest to the party boss that the girls play a few hands of poker or pinochle, the winner to be the party nominee. Miss Finlayson agrees to carry out this suggestion, and at her decision, the political reporters, Frances Reynolds, Florence Saulnier, Helen Cate, and Margaret Ridler dash madly for a telephone to relay the momentous decision to the impatiently waiting universe. PRIZE FIGHT Here we are, gazing at the vast throng seated in Soldier's Field, Chicago, on the night of the bout for the world's heavyweight championship. Listen to the announcer CDon't forget, these are talkies.D Marvin Miron. In this cornah, we have the champeen-Dyna- mite Iim Lane, sometimes called Pop,'-and ovah heah, in this cornah, the youthful contender, Iimmy Sullivan, the Cherry Valley Expresslu The boys acknowledge the crowd's roar, and then get a last word of advice from their managers, Ioe Feingold and Abe Solomon, who, 'tis rumored, are brothers. The big sports promoter, Bill Leonard TIUFIIIQV-llL'0 QQCLASSHC 0 QED Q iwirrarn-HS 03 f. X-1' 3 fwho had a well known faculty for promoting even in his high school daysj anxiously looks over the crowd, desirous for a big gate. By the way, Bill Lajousky can be seen way off in the distance there, garbed in his resplendent uniform as door-keeper. The bell rings, and the Fighters come out snarling from their corners. For a few rounds this snarling goes on beautifully, but soon the lads begin to waltz around the ring, playing tag. The referee, Ioe Halpin, who, by the way, is slated to bear our colors as a marathon runner in the Olympics, chases them around, begging them to mix it up. Now the ring is being showered with pop bottles, and both Fighters are knocked unconscious by the flying missiles. The Hght is declared a victory in favor of Iiilly Leonard, who will cash in no matter what happens, as usual, CIRCUS PARADE Knowing that some of our classmates of high school days are employed in the circus that comes to VVorcester each year, the reunion committee purchased from one of the newsreel companies some shots of that stupendous organizations march along Main Street. I.et's project a few on the screen now. This is the gigantic spectacle known throughout the globe as Fimple and Snizek and Bungling Brothers Circus. Astride the circus' one mangy camel staggering along in the van is the turbaned George Shamagochian, advertised as the Terrible Turk, Ivan Skida- vitzky, Skivar. Do you see that elephant second in the line-the one sulfering from nervous shakedown and warts? Well, on top of him is our own Ruth Snow, billed as Fanny Fatima, the Fatal Fascinator. Therels lack Sacks, dressed as a clown, frolicking about with a half-starved poodle. And, of course, the trapeze artists, Frances Soloway and Ruth VVheeler. The parade, as you can see, is now passing in front of the City Hall. You can see people leaning out of the windows to catch a glimpse of the superb splendors offered by Fimple and Snizek and Bungling Brothers. On the balconade stands Mayor Mirak Mirakian, surrounded by his league of nations-Eleanor Lacouture, Aura Niemi, Mary Gallagher, Helene Galkowski, and Doris Ziskin. Opposite him, in the window of the bank, you see Walt Rapinchuk, president of the institution-for the insane, and his charges, Sarah Warner, Melba Spaulding, Agnes Yuknavich, and Rebecca Saleson who are nurses. That man in the white suit is Bob Sherwood, street cleaner by the appoint- ment of His Honor, the Mayor.-We have a change of scene here. Now you see the circus parading on Irving Street in front of the new Classical High. Up there at the windows are the students and teachers. Do you recognize the teachers? There' is Rhoda Webster, who because she was a failure as a dentist, teaches thumb-twiddling. George Tllfflllj'-lhl'E6 EOCCLASSHC Q Q65 Q Mimiraicnsires Q9 Brooks is at the next window. Brooksie teaches crocheting under his new system. Aha, look there! None other than Mr. Iohn Breen, known in his high school days as the perennial pupilf' Would you believe it-Breen has the soft job of training students who are preparing for the Dummy Room Presidency. At the second story window, you see Hazel Mara, who is a gym instructor for the boys, selected because of her unusual skill at ping pong. Beside Hazel stands Iimmy Thomas, girls' physical instructor, who secured his job because of his reputation as a parchesi player. Below this window, on the Hrst floor, is Henry Mieczkowski, who conducts a spelling class remarkably well, due to the proficiency he acquired in spelling his own last name. The parade is now passing down Pleasant Street, and at Harrington Corner you can see 'KBee', Lozoraitis, Helen Crahan, Elsie Gilligan, and Rita Flagg, too busy chewing the rag to take even a glance at the gorgeous aggregation of circus stars. From here the parade wends its way down Front Street. Notice the names of the merchants over their stores as you see the parade go by. There's K'Bob,, Anderson's shop. Hie sells pickles and ice cream. A few places down you see Margaret Ferguson's place of business. Miggy', deals in stools for pigeons. Next is the store of 'STom Stoskus, who sells reels, fishing reels, Virginia reels, and ce-reels. Ruth Kinniery manages the Warner Theatre, featuring Micky Mouse pictures exclusively. That banana stand belongs to 'lEddie', Kalinowski. Eva White owns the Pill Supply Store, next door. And now the parade has reached Union. Station, where we see among the cab drivers, Vinny Grublevskas, Isaac Margolis, Louis Rosenberg, and Henry Kolakowski. DEDICATION PROGRAM Undoubtedly you remember the dedication of the Corner around which PROSPERITY Is lust Around Which. This has been an annual event since that First dread year, 1929. QAlmost all the corners in town have been used up.j Since many prominent men and women were present to pay tribute to the one who had discovered the corner, the camera- men took a few shots of the scene. Here they are. You are looking at the corner of Hard Street and Time Avenue, commonly known as Poverty Square. Seated on the curbing is a long line of cutaways and silk hats, which are being worn by such notables as George Bridgham, Will Zook, Arthur Sheir, Alu Stein, and L'Ken Ovendon. Standing in the midst of the admiring throng you can see Paul MacArdle, ready to unveil the corner. Paul was selected for the job, I suppose, because of his reputation for unveiling the mys- teries of the dilhcult problems encountered in his K'Trig,' class. And now the corner is unveiled. The crowds are awaiting the words of the dedicatory speaker, Iean MacGregor. Twwzly-fozn QOCLASSHC 0 Q65 0 MYTLQS Q, fs 9 Q-1 She steps forward, and starts to speak. Horrors! She is delivering an address on how to bring up children! She must have mistaken the occasion. There is no stopping her, however, and the audience suffers for the duration of her long talk. There you see Bob'l Arick leaping upon the speaker's platform to deliver an impassioned address upon the basic causes of the DEPRESSION. Arick usually prefers to speak at the laying of cornerstones, but times are so bad he seizes any occasion to speak now. THE KENTUCKY DERBY This year, as usual, the historical Kentucky Derby took place down in the Blue-Grass country. The committee has procured some shots of the horse race for us. Here they are on the screen. Coming out of the paddock you see the horses entered in the race. There's the favorite, Pickle Pete, with Louis Fontaine as jockey. Alice Fleming, figure in society, is the owner of Pickle Pete. Another horse conceded a good chance is Stewed Steve, with Tony Kiselauskas up. Wendell Davis is the owner. The horses are now lined up at the barrier, ready to go. Cliff Degrenier, the starter, shoots the gun, and the crowd roars, They,re ofifli' The race is thrilling, but the result is totally unexpected. Here you see a closeup of the winner, LeMoyne Burleigh fno-LeMoyne's not the winner, Le- Moyneis horse, Lushed Lizzie. Mr. Burleigh will collect a large sum as the prize, and a large sum on wagers. HARBOR ACCIDENT You will remember that a few months ago, two ocean liners collided in the fog in New York harbor. VVe have some shots of that casualty here now. On the screen you see the vague outlines of the two liners through the fog. Douglas Kirschnercaptained one ship and Charlie Campbell, the other. The accident has caused serious trouble for aboard the ships are many people who are delayed to the damage of their businesses. There you see a few lined up at the rails. Mark Capuano was bound for South America to engineer a banana deal. Lester Edwards, ambassador to the French Republic, was seriously embar- rassed by the delay, because by the time he arrived, the French ministry had changed three times, and he was unable to deal with the new officials. Miss Christine Hakanson, bound for Europe on one of her semi-annual trips, lost two trunks filled with sweaters of every description. During the ensuing excitement, Cecile Freeman, trombonist superieure, was late for the opening of her concert tour in Europe. Her manager, Dot Kashman, is suing the steamship company through her lawyer, Phil Abelson. At the right, is Norman Coyle, matinee idol of the American theatregoers. He was going abroad for a tour of the Twenfy-five ACOCLASSHC Q Q65 Q Nfairfaernaes no G, xf' or c 9 London and Paris music halls. Under the steamer rug, lying on the deck, you can barely discern the prominent proboscis of Herzl Rome. The internationally famous artist is about to leave for Paris to attend an exhibition of wall-paper designs. The accident did irreparable damage to Mr. Romeis cultured voice. He now lispsl There are no others to be seen in this shot, unless you count lack Delaney as someone-his legs may be seen just disappearing into the oceanis depths. He had been clinging to the rail with a sea-sick look when the boats crashed. MASQUERADE BALL No newsreel presentation of the year's high-lights of society, politics, sports, etc., would be complete without some shots of the magnificent masquerade ball given by the S.P.C.P.-Society for the Prevention of Class Prophecies. The affair this year was held at the roof of the Harding Street slaughter house. You are now gazing down upon the dance floor from the balcony above. It is the moment when everyone must unmask. Let's see if we can recognize any of them. Look over there-at the group before the orchestra's stand. That's Guy Nanartonis in the baby clothes, the one with the pink socks, rompers, frilly bonnet, and milk bottle. The person wrapped up in those white lengths of cloth is Rita Mullan, disguised as a mummy. Near her is Thelma Cotzin, costumed as the wife of a Chinese mandarin. A few feet away stands Charles Kiljanczk, disguised as Pagliacci. Charlie is talking to 'KDavel' Grodberg, who is dressed as an onion skin. To the right you see Danny Bernstein, masquerading as circus sawdust. And there is Mary Candlin, dressed as a negative quantity, a minus sign. Look at Chris Colecchil He has put whipped cream on his head in order to resemble a nut sundae. There is 'KBob Silver. Robert has a piece of cheese in his hand-he went to the dance as two pieces of cheese. Will you look at L'Bud Smith! Datus is disguised as the fourth dimension. He is dancing with Dot Churchill, who is costumed as one of her own loved grapefruits. Seated on that bench in the corner are Gonda Chevalier, Gertrude liudish, Esther Briggs, and Mary Ioyce, all costumed alike as decimal points. Dancing past are Helen Zickell as a carbohydrate, and Dicky Rome, as a Bolshevik. - FOOTBALL GAME Of course no collection of a year's newsreels would be complete without some views of the annual football classic between Clark University and Worcester State Teachers' Col- lege. The scene is the famous Sugar Bowl, seating ll0,000. Qll0,000 whatPj Gazing on Twenly-:ix EUOCLASSHC Q Q65 Q MYTMS Q9 gy the screen we see the Clark captain, Bill Barros, who is still at college QU, due to the great demand for his athletic prowess, and the Teachers' College captain, Connie VVith- standley. Bill appears nervous under the fierce gaze of the belligerent Miss Withstandley, but he does not flee. The referee, Israel Katz, tosses up the coin. QYes, there will be some money around in 1952.1 It favors Clark and Bill chooses to defend the eastern goal. Hear the cheers of the multitudes as the two teams trot to their positions! Sybil Gould and Hortense Crosby dash down the field at the kick-off, being fleet ends, and savagely tackle the man who receives the ball, Dave Hardy. Hardy is a bit shaken up. Clark makes but little progress for the next few downs, and Teachers' College takes the ball. Katherine Lever, the keen quarterback, gives the ball to Wanda Pikiel, fullback, who ploughs through the hole at left guard opened up by that towering terror, Ieanne Methot, who occasionally stops cartooning to play football for recreation. It looks like an easy victory for Teachers' College, and the game progresses up to the first half, with Teachers' College ahead, 13 to 7. Between the halves, the cameraman has turned his camera on the stands, and here you see some shots of the spectators. High up there in the upper tier of seats, we see Randy Creswell, sports announcer, busy broadcasting the highlights of the day's history-making game. A few rows farther down and to the left, are seated the prosperous merchants, the firm of Shapiro, Shapiro, and Shapiro, you remember-Beatrice, Leon, and Nathan? They are dealers in grapenuts, walnuts, cocoanuts, and nuts. On the other side of the stadium, seated near the fourth exit, are Victor Kosmo and Boleslaus Kisiel, wrapped up in enormous racoon coats. These men are in the know and have a large bet placed on Teachers' College to win. They have just returned from a successful season at Agua Caliente. That fellow looking at a score card so intently is Tim Clifford. You all remember Timothy, surely. Mr. Clifford is the producer of those big musical revues seen on Broadway from time to time. His latest show is called Clifford's Calami- ties. Starring in it are Annette Dubuc and Anne Chandley. And now we have the climax of the game, a long pass through the air by Dick Leary that nestles securely in the arms of Pete Karpowich, who evades three would-be-tacklers to make a touchdown for Clark. Dick then makes the extra point, and Clark wins, 14 to 13. Kosmo and Kisiel are out a tidy sum. WAR FRONT SCENES Rumors of a carnage of war in far off Slobotka have reached the borders of our civiliza- tion. These reports were substantiated by some newsreels taken in that tropical region. Since many of our former classmates are involved, we now project a few scenes of the battles upon the screen. Twelzty-:ez'e'n Ewootpaaessnto 0 QQ! 0 Mmraiems Q, Y! 3 This is a scene in the tent of General Arthur Moossa, the Little Caesarv of the faction known as the Paskudniaks. Grouped about General Moossa are his advisers, among them g'Eddie Solomon, Colonel of the Scallions, Billy', Weeks, Lieutenant of the Third Regiment of the Rialto Movie-Ushers, Sheldon Childs, Captain of the Rocking-Horse Marines. The aides-de-camp are Norman Castonguay and Ray Lutkawicz. It looks as though the mighty Chieftains are in fierce conclave, they whisper and shriek, and glare at each other magnificently. Now let us take a look into the camp of the enemy. Here we have a shot of the-well, will you look for yourself! It is the perfumed, luxurious boudoir of the leader of the rebel contingent, the Schlemiels! Lying back on a Hnely embroidered divan is the chief- tain herself, Phyllis Bieberbach. Seated on cushions near her are her aides, Sergeant-at- Arms Cicely Brunt, General Marjorie Brown, Colonel Marie Bliven, Lieutenant Florence Goodman, and Second Looey 'KLibby', GoH. The attendants serving tea and matzos are Betsy Dubin, Anna White, Marion Lougee, and Leona Lavin. The Amazonian girls are sweetly debating the relative beauties of Lawrence Healy and Ray Wolochowicz, the latest in matinee idols. Hurry to the grim business of war, girls! Tempus is fugiting! Next we give you the terrifying and impressive scene of the two vast armies, the Pas- kudniaks and Schlemiels, meeting in bloody combat on the desolate plains of the war-torn country of Slobotka. STATESMEN'S CONFERENCE But what have we here? Our operator must be a bit confused! This is not a scene of gory strife! It looks suspiciously like a round table conference of statesmen. And listen! A grave, spinach-whiskered statesman, Ioe Bielan, is solemnly declaring that the question of whether or not a state of war exists between the Paskudniaks and the Schlemiels is to be decided in the usual manner,-by a basketball game between the statesmen of the Militarist division, and those of the Pacifist section. A whistle suddenly blows, and the statesmen of the two teams go into huddles. The opposing captains, Ioe Comtois and Sam Waxler, signify that their teams are ready, and the two centers, Walt Dremluk and Sumner Cotton jump for the ball. Ioe Savage of the Militarists receives the tap and passes to Bernie Romanoff, who dribbles the ball down the floor toward the Pacihsts, basket. He trips suddenly over his swallowtail, and drops the ball, which is picked up by Edgar Sampson, an opponent, who immediately passes across the floor to Evrom Mintz, the lleet-footed Pacihst, who evades a Militarist by pivoting, and then dribbles the ball a few steps farther. Suddenly the ball passes swiftly through the air into the waiting, out- Twenty-fight EOC-LASSHC O Q65 Q NQYTHES stretched hands of Leo Margosian, who calmly passes under the basket and flips the ball in for a Pacifist goal. Again the ball is put into play, but despite the feverish eFforts of two substitutes, Elmer Strong and Norman Svenson, the Militarists gain no headway, and the brief game ends with the Pacifists as victors. Ioe Bielan then announces that because of the Pacifist triumph, no state of war exists between the Paskudniaks and the Schlemiels. Thus the matter is dropped and Slobotka is saved! HOLLYWOOD VI EWS The cameraman has taken some excellent shots of Hollywood during the year, and you will see some of them. Here is a view of a fine Moroccan Castle, overlooking the valley. Walking through the grounds we see the successor to Iohn Barrymore, a former Classical man, Foster McCafTerty. Time out while the girls sigh longingly-Foster's popularity, however, is being challenged by a newcomer to the ranks of moviedom, Stanley Schorr, who strongly reminds us of that once famous star, Clark Gable. Can it be Stanley's ears? Here we have another scene, located in the Roosevelt Hotel in Los Angeles, where movie stars and fandom have gatherd to witness the radio broadcast of an hour dance program over a national chain. The orchestra, the Montreal Mexicans, is under the baton of that famous saxophone player and crooner, Ralph Segal. Seated at the piano we espy Henry Abusamra, renowned for his Hying fingers. Playing first trumpet is George Gilli- gan, and banging away at the drums is Sammy Shulman. The program is being spon- sored by a nationally advertised cigarette firm, the Burwick Butts Company. Between dance numbers we see Sammy Levine broadcasting the latest choice bits of gossip. Sammy Hts right into that job. Heis doing extremely well. Over in the corner we see Miss Ruth Leahy, the society woman, attempting to get a word in edgewise in what seems to us a monologue with the well-known Parisienne modiste, Mme. Muriel Manning. Iimmy Durkin, known on the screen as the Man With a Thousand Facesf, is Hitting about the dance floor gracefully with his 769th face. Seated at a table up front is Franny White, Harpo Marx reincarnated. STOCK MARKET CRASH We have some excellent shots of the stock exchange in New York, taken last October on the day of the crash that almost rivalled the one of 1929 for disaster, On the screen Twenty-nine ia-terra-eessjico Q 563 0 nfrisirajr-taicssi-I . , , g-1 you see the members of the exchange rushing about, panic-stricken. Only one figure is calm, that of Iohn Brand, the master hnancier. From lending dimes during lunch period at Classical to lending millions on VVall Street-that's the height to which Iohn has risen. He is undisturbed because he now has nothing to lose. No one has repaid his loans, and so he,s broke. QI-Ie should have known better, no one paid him at Classical eitherj Irv- ing Hahn and Dave Gould have lost half their immense fortunes as directors of Associated Asparagus, Inc., Ltd. Floyd Huntley is about the only one who made money during that period, as a purveyor of red ink in wholesale quantities. Look at Arthur Lalos over there. He is picking up the ticker tape for use in his business as a dealer in confetti. BOSTON ALUMNI DINNER During the Christmas holidays, the Classical alumni residing in the vicinity of Boston held a reunion. The cameraman was present to take a few shots for this present occasion. Here we have the scenes. The man standing up at the head of the table is Fred Plimpton, professional after-dinner speaker, and toast-master for the occasion. I am sorry, but the news sound apparatus was not built to withstand the impressive weight and longevity of Mr. Plimptoifs words. So while he is talking we'll look about the table to see who is present. On Fred's left, you see Saul Raphael. Mr. Raphael has continued in the line of work he excelled in at Classical, and has created a name for himself as, er-er-Well, you know what I mean-Hats off to Mr. Raphael! He's still getting away with it! A bit far- ther down is seated Paul Suliotis. Paul has achieved distinction as the best in the journal- istic Held of writers who conduct those Weary Hearts and Saddened Souls columns. Mr. Suliotis' is called Tell it to Pollyf, Over there you see Dick Keenan quietly survey- ing the assemblage. Dick is an economics expert for the government. He foresees DEPRESSIONS four days before anyone else. Been Cohen may be seen at the other end of the table. She has just published a book of her poetry. Beside Bee is Doris Bradley. Dot is married now-sorry, but I canit disclose the name of the hen-peeked husband. Mr. Plimpton has just hnished his speech-only thirty-five minutes this time. FUNERAL CORTEGE Why-why how did this get in here? Look at the screen now! A long, heavy, black car, looking suspiciously like a funeral van. And see that long line of boys and girls Thirty EDOCLASSHC 0 Q65 B MYTMS na S-Q walking briskly along behind it! Isn't it queer, they are dressed in clothing of the style of twenty years ago, way back in 1932. The girls' dresses look like those worn on Class Day. How peculiar that they are all chattering and laughing gayly, as if they really enjoyed the spectacle of some unfortunate's funeral! But what have we walking slowly and solemnly behind them?-A smaller group of older people, weeping copious tears and heaving prodigious sighs. They mourn for the beloved dead one. The cortege is drawing nearer. Here we have a closeup of the corpse as seen through the hearse window.

'M-WCW IW x.09A 46xJ Thirfy-one' Class Uiraitioim lLeii: The Robot Rebel UR modern scientific development is at last rc- alizing one of the ambitions of all ages, it is now producing men and women who are peculiarly mechanical. These new types are seen extensively and may be readily recognized because of their striking similarity to one another. Should you come upon them, you would immediately notice that everything about them, every motion that they make seems to be directed by an operator at a distant switchboard. On a certain day the male mechanisms will be en- cased in black sweaters and corduroy trousers, while on another the supervisor will demand white Han- . . nels and navy blue coats. You will find the members HERZL ROME of the feminine contingent sheltered by a scanty mass of bobbed hair until the control switch decrees that all female hair shall be grown to a length of eighteen inches, curled over the ears, and uni- formly bound in back as though it were on a windlass roller. These robots, you will observe, are able to hear, see, and speak. Should you watch one of them pick up a newspaper, we should perceive that certain levers are accurately reg- ulated to turn to a comic section, then to a sport page, and Finally, perhaps, to a page of intriguing Hlm gossip. This done, an automatic arrangement directs a hand to a well- worn switch which causes the radio to bring forth melodious strains of music. But the ears of the mechanical man have been so sensitively adjusted that with a certain dis- gust the dial is immediately turned over. When the desired tune has been obtained, an ingenious arrangement of wheels and levers produces a certain rocking motion in the figure accompanied by a well-timed snapping of the fingers. Now and then, indeed, groups of these robots will be seen conversing among them- selves. A skillful recording device has absorbed a goodly part of the matter found in Thirty-two QDOCLASSHC O tgp Q iMis:tTJl-Hes 0 c X -- a gg newspapers and heard at moving pictures and over the radio, so that the automatic appli- cation of the needle to the record produces the sound of conversation. Particular facial expressions will be noticed to accompany certain words and certain questions will react on the sensitive diaphragms to produce stock answers. The reply is ready before the query has been completed, for after all the talk is but a repetition of news events inter- mingled with opinions concerning the weather. Such is the being that science has succeeded in producing. However, scientists have not taken various isolated elements and molded them into the forms of human beingsg on the contrary they have taken human beings and transformed them into mechanical men, robots! VVC are ourselves becoming submerged in an ocean of mass mentality, so that we can scarcely recognize ourselves. The achievements of this mechanical age, all kinds of advertising, movies, newspapers, radios, telephones, and easy means of communication are all working desperately to pro- duce the greatest possible degree of uniformity in us. The evils of such a tendency are horrifying! Do you not realize how gravely this situation affects us? It tends to deprive us of youth, of the very beauty of existence! However, such a treasure is not lost without a fierce struggle. Even the robot at times feels a certain antipathy toward the mechanical uniformity which characterizes his class. Perhaps, he sees a cloud Hoat by and, as he looks at it, he feels a certain exultation. Per- haps, he has broken into the mechanical conservation of his comrades with a Word which came from his heart. Immediately, a sense of profound delight comes over him as he discovers that he has felt and said something of his own. For once, he has been himself! No longer a unit in a gigantic machine but a unified structure of body and soul. There is a strong feeling of joy and a stronger disgust at his companions who are still ensnarled in the meshes of conventionality! As this repugnance is intensified, our robot rebels with increasing vigor against those engineers who created him and who rule him. Before long there evolves from that unfeeling contraption of levers, cogs, and pinions, an individual! No longer does he work because he is worked, but he rather enjoys a life of his own, ever discovering for himself new beauty and interests in the world. XVhy cannot we also shake off, the shackles of mass development? 'We need not be Tlzirty-thrcc EQCEJASSHC O C65 Q NQYPQFLHS ' g-1 J eccentric, but why must we all dress exactly alike? Our life would be far more varied and interesting if we refused to submit to the rule of great manufacturers who find it more expedient to force black dresses on the public than green, or felt hats instead of derbies. Why can't we show a little individuality in our reading also? The value of the newspaper is lost if we cannot think a little further than what we read, and preserve our own ideas beyond the influence of columnists. May it also be understood that a good book is not always the one which the whole fraternity or sorority is quoting. If the radio must constantly be on while we eat, drink, and play, it is essential that we find some safeguard for our ears and minds in order that the voice which comes from wires and tubes shall not provide us with our only food for conversation. Such an enrichment may be gained through an active curiosity and a keen observation of nature. It would lift us forever out of spiritual depression. To be in style means to be a robotg to throw away life and be a machine! It is when we do not know who we are that we allow ourselves to be carried away with the mob or ruled by dictators. If we wish to survive as individuals, we must counteract these disinte- grating influences. NVe must learn to know ourselves.l Q C . 1 -55' . JW 3-5' fi LW .Ql9. . i 9 Thirty-four conoilniic Conditions During Washington's Administration HE restrictions placed by Great Britain upon the economic development of the American colonies led almost inevitably to the Revolution and the sever- ance of the political ties between the two countries. Political independence, however, was not followed im- mediately either by commercial or economic indepen- dence. Another war was necessary before the' Hrst was securedg while the second can hardly be said to have been attained until the second quarter of the nineteenth century. A complete shifting of economic interests began almost with the formation of the new government, , and the growing demand for protection to manufac- tures quickly gave way before the expansion of com- merce that occurred. In 1793 war broke out between France and England, spreading until it finally in- RICH.-xian KEENAN volved all the nations of Europe. American merchants, who possessed the only considerable neutral merchant fleet, soon became the principal carriers of the trade between the warring nations and their colonies. During this period, the increased trade gave the ship-building industry a renewed stimulus. While the great commercial nations were fighting one another for the carrying-trade of the world, America ran away with the bone over which they were quarreling. The majority of our population, however, was engaged in agriculture. The Southern agricultural methods at this time were a wasteful kind of extensive farming. The ground was cultivated in a very primitive fashion, but few agricultural implements were used and those only of the rudest type. Fertilizers were but rarely utilized, while rotation of crops was unknown, the land was used until exhausted and then deserted for a fresh piece. In the North, the growing season was shorter and a greater amount of effort was necessary to clear land for cultivation. Men were farmers in order to earn a living, but as their crops yielded no great profit, other industries received attention. The removal of restraints upon foreign trade, together with the increased demand for our products during the continental wars abroad, however, greatly stimulated the interest in agriculture. Societies for the promotion of agriculture were formed, thereby awakening inquiry and intellectual activities. During the Revolution the manufacture of various articles had been greatly stimulated by the necessities of the war and by the interruption of foreign commerce. Upon the re- Th1'rly-fre e Q T steamer rl C, xx' o 9 turn of peace, these infant industries quickly languished, as they could not compete with the flood of cheap manufacturers which Great Britain poured into the country. Witli the establishment of a more centralized government, an elliott was made on behalf of the dis- tressed infant manufacturers of the time to secure some protection from foreign commerce. The so-called factories, however, were small and shortflived. It was cheaper to buy irn- ported goods than to manufacture them at home. Except in the South where slaves performed the greater part of the labor, most of the agriculturists in the country were independent farmers. The wage-earners were chiefly artisans and were to be found almost entirely in the North. While poverty was rare, the standard of living was low, and the laborer secured little beyond the bare necessities of life in exchange for his wage. The workers of this period had little intellectual stimulus, their interests were local and there was, almost no contact with the outside world. Labor organ- izations were few and were confined to the skilled workersg the unskilled laborers remained inarticulate and unorganized. Consequently, labor was unable to exert any influence upon legislation during this period. The economic environment of a new country led, more- over, to extreme emphasis upon industrial individualism. The economic development of the country after the Revoluton followed in the main the same course which had characterized it before the VVar. During this period the carry- ing-trade was developed to an extraordinary degree, while the foreign demand for our agricultural staples also gave a great stimulus to agriculture. As during the Colonial period, so also during the thirty years following the Declaration of Independence, the eco- nomic policy of the new states and later of the Union was largely dependent upon that of England and of Europe. The face of the American people was still turned to the Atlantic and their gaze was directed across it. l'l 'I f ' ,r, -90 x?!.O Q E-I JL. EJ Thirly-rzx The Educational Opportunities lln Washington's outlhr INCE Fate has decreed that the two hundredth i 7 anniversary of George Washington's birth year should coincide with the ending of our secondary edu- cation, it is entirely fitting that we consider today the educational resources of the nation's infancy. XVashington himself, had, from our point of view, a singular training. Until the age of fifteen, he was under the tutelage of a convict master. When we recall, however, that even the most highly educated men of the Colonial period might be imprisoned for a trifling debt, we are reassured as to the nature of the training of the youthful VVashington. The latter, - as far as we know, was a normal, intelligent boy. The N . - . . . . IRAN bl.XCCrRliGOR most concrete bits of evidence, his letters and his diary show a delightful orthographic freedom that we as stu- dents are not permitted. Education, early in our history, was an object of general concern. New England education was fostered by the government and in the earliest period, administered by the officials of the church. Every community embracing hfty families was required to have a primary schoolg those having one hundred, a Latin grammar school. Massachusetts, from the very beginning, led all the colonies in educational matters. If we go farther South, we lind the churches of New York and Pennsylvania had established even a stronger parochial control. Each sect, fed by the desire of its followers to lead youth in the steps of that faith, had it-5 schoolg for instance, in New York the Dutch Reform school, in Pennsylvania, Friends. Lutherans, Mennonites, Moravian and Presbyterian. Traveling onward to Virginia and the other Southern Colonies, ZKIIASSCZ-flIfI'6 was the established sentiment regarding educa- tion. ln general, being a wealthier class of people, the plantation owners had tutors for their children or sent them 'lhomef' ln this section vehement objections were raised against the free schools. It may be interesting to note that a free school was free only that it was open to anyone provided he could pay the stipulated fee. With education so important, one wonders of what an education consisted. Can you imagine as your course of study a mere smattering of the three R's,,' a little geography. a slight bit of political history, and at the time of the Revolution patriotic elfusions as the reading lesson? The Bible, which had originally been the text-book, slowly gave way to the Catechism, primers, and finally to the use of the New England Primer almost entirely. Such would be your education if you attended a dame school and a Latin grammar school. Tllirly-xc'1'rn ZOCLASSHC Q Q67 Q MYTMS 4 Q XJ' J or if you received your training under a tutor. A group of children meeting in one of the homes and taught by one of the mothers or a maiden aunt was known as a dame school. After learning to stand alone, keep the place when reading, and pronounce words of two syllables, the student passed to the tutelage of a minister or to a Latin grammar school. For those who wanted and could aFford more, preparation for teaching and the ministry could be had at Harvard, Rutgers, Princeton and William and Mary colleges. Law and medicine was learned by studying in the oflices of those who practiced those professions. Such schooling as has been mentioned was for well-to-do families only, unless the poorer ones had a wealthy patron such as Washington, who made education possible to many young men. Sons of poor people were put out to apprenticeship in various trades, the daughters remained at home to learn their housewifely duties. Perhaps we may find a faint recognition of education as a public duty in the establishment of orphan schools to teach the rudiments. But with the Revolution came a truly astounding change of point of view in regard to education. A republic of uneducated citizens was unthinkable and such a government could not hope to survive. True enough that the Constitution makes no mention of edu- cation but only because it was one of the governmental activities reserved to the states. But the sentiment of the new nation finds concrete expression in the Ordinance of 1787, which provided that the entire territory be divided into townships six miles square, each town to be sub-divided into thirty-six sections with section sixteen reserved for the support of public schools. Two whole townships were set aside for the support of a State univer- sity. Tlie example of the territories was quickly followed by the older states. And we may now state as the fundamental American policy that same Ordinance of 1787, Reli- gion, morality, and knowledge being necessary to good government and the happiness of mankind, schools and the means of education shall forever be encouragedf, Political Problems of the llilirsit Presidency 66 HE love of my country will be the ruling in- ' fluence of my conductf' With these words George Washington took over the greatest task of his career: the organiging and building of a national government. When he as- sumed the duties of his. office on May 1, 1789, there was in a sense no government of the United States, there was a president, a Congress, and a document, the Constitution. Today the position of the United States among the great nations of the earth is a monu- ment to his political and his administrative genius. Early in his administration Washington was called , , upon to prove that a federal government existed. The hardy frontiersmen of the Alleghanies refused to pay MANUEL SEGAL the excise tax on domestic spirits, which was enacted in order to raise national funds. Boycotts were passed, oflicers were whippedg proclamations were ignored, and the tax was not paid. Perhaps revolution was still in the nation's blood! Washington accepted the challenge! His call upon the militia of the neighboring states to put down the Whiskey Rebellion settled defi- nitely the supremacy of the national government. Not only must the citizens of a nation acknowledge the existence, and in doing so the power of their government, but other nations must afford it similar recognition,-else there is no nation. The foreign entanglements in which NVashington found himself were greater than those faced by any other executive. For along with the vexing situations in our national affairs, another great stormcloud had gathered and rolled itself across the world's horizon, threatening the very existence ofthe United States. France was in the very throes of revolution! Despite his love for the country of his friend and comrade, Lafayette, and the gratitude which XVashington always felt toward France for her timely assistance, he deemed it his duty to turn a deaf ear to all the pleas that would involve the new nation in any war. Upon the declaration of war between France and England in 1793, VVashington found himself in a dilemma. On one hand he had an obligation to pay to friendly France, while on the other hand there was the smouldering hostility towards England. The French government clamored for aid, and popular feeling in America rose high in favor of France. President Washington took the safe and reasonable ground that the United States was the ally of neither party in the European war, and issued his famous Neutrality Proclama- tion which set the corner-stone of the United States policy in foreign affairs. Tl1fI'fj IIl'IIl' EGG ceiisafftes Site 4 QQQ VK5flH3YFiil1fjiflS' cs A -e A a gg The next important foreign diplomacy of Washingtonls presidency was the Iay Treaty. This agreement provided for the relinquishment of western posts by the British, for the arbitration of British debts, and for the settlement of the disputed northeastern boundary of the United States. This treaty, the First commercial one with Great llritain, was not very satisfactory to the Americans and aroused much criticism regarding neutral trade and commerce with the West Indies. Again the clear foresight and statesmanship of the great leader, George Washington, was apparent, for he appreciated that the trade and good will of England was essential to the prosperity of his country and that peace with honor was at that time the most necessary factor to the newly born United States of America. Washington recognized that Europe and the United States were continents apart. Our people, our culture might for the time be European-but our political exist- ence of all time was to be American! No group of men, no foreign power was to be allowed to threaten our national existence. Washington, by his refusal of a third term, set a precedent that has made difficult, if not impossible, the domestic tyranny of a dictatorship. To the demands of his friends he stated: Influence is no government. I had rather glide gently down the stream of life, leaving it to posterity to think and say what they please of me, than by any act of mine to have vanity or ostentation imputed to me. The voice of mankind is with meg my work is done and well donef, Sentiment may be the force of this precedent, but in one hundred and sixty-seven years, only once has it been seriously threatened! In 1796 he published his 4'Farewell Addressf, and no man ever left a nobler political testament. Every word is instinct with the wisest and purest patriotism. The inspiration of the address that he left to the people he had welded into a nation and had protected from domestic, foreign, and individual attacks is Be united and be Americans, do justice to all and never forget we are Americans. Beware of attacks, open or covert, upon the Constitution. Be independent politically of all nations! Let there be no sectionalisml In one word, be a nation, be Americans, and be true to yourselveslu Let us not forget! 1. .5 sais Weis, For-ty Social Life After the Revolution OCIAI, revolution follows naturally upon political ' ' revolution. The lines of demarcation of society were not drawn quite in the same way after the XVar of 1776 as before it. The positions of first importance were held by the newly-rich, those who had made their fortunes out of the exigencies of the war. The clergy, on the other hand, not only suffered frotn Hnancial difficulties but their position of authority absolute before, was now denied or, at least, ques- tioned. A few of the 'fold families, many of them Tories, retained their position though many were re- duced to extreme poverty. In a word, money was becoming an all-important factor in the new world, ' i and though there had never been economic or social MEI-BA SP-'U-DWG equality among the people, a wide gulf was now rapidly broadening between the moneyed and the working classes. The few comforts of the farmer and artisan contrasted sharply with the luxurious living of the war profiteers. Early in its course, the new nation of the United States showed that a political democracy might find itself endangered by plutocracy. Curiously enough, the holier-than-thou spirit of the seventeenth century religious leaders lent itself to the new wealth. The wealthy assumed a moral rsponsibility. Despite the agitation of the working classes in the trades and crafts, the delightful old custom of laboring ufrom sunrise to sunset prevailed. Shorter working hours, their masters de- clared, would expose the apprentices to many temptations and vices and lower the standard of society. In the zeal for saving souls from idleness, even young children were sent to work in the factories for thirteen hours a day, excepting the Sabbath, which 'Aleft littlc time for daily instructionf' As for their leisure time-apparently the poor had little or none. No doubt the alarm- ing decline in morals at this time, particularly the heavy drinking, was a direct result. Intemperance had been common from colonial days: even the clergy drank heavily at religious meetings. Laws were passed against distilling from grains, but the reason given was not the possible harm from liquors, but the danger of making grain too scarce for food. Life offered somewhat more variety to the well-to-do-although the number of their diversions may seem rather limited to our pleasure-mad generation. One of the main delights of the wealthy was the formal ball. The minuet, stately and slow in movement, was the popular mode of dancing, mainly through necessity. It would have been indeed difhcult for a lady to waltz with her hair built up in a pyramid with a turban or large feather for ornament. The men wore wigs, in fact. they had wigs for every occasion Furry-one SQCLASSHC 0 Q65 Q MYTMS 03 from riding to sleeping. A sword was an essential of full dress though rather in the way in a crowded ball-room. Before the revolution all social functions centered in the home chiefly because of the wretched means of transportation. But after the war, the first two-wheeled carriages appeared. They were a distinctly aristocratic vehicle and deemed a great luxury. People stood and marveled as the wonderful conveyance rolled by. The next step in the develop- ment ofthe carriage was the introduction of the stage coach. This commonly consisted of four rows of benches, backless affairs offering no relief or support to one during a long journey over a rough and rutty road. Almost two hundred years have passed since the period of which we speak-a short interval of time considering the progress which our country has made. Yet even now We are living during those years which follow a great war. We still have distinctions in social rank founded on wealth rather than high birth. Moreover, the increasing number of inventions and improvements which have been brought forward in our age tend to point out that we can never have equality in our social structure. But we ever strive toward the betterment of all society in general, and we can not help feel that we are grad- ually approximating this end. Proof lies in the fact that not one of us would exchange his present state, however hopeless, for that of the ordinary citizen of Washington's time.

To begin with, the Councll showed clear judgment in its choice of officers, namely: George Brooks, president, Conda Chevalier, vice-president, Sybil Gould, secretary, and Iames McGrady, treasurer. At the very first meeting the councillors were given instructions in regard to the performance of an entirely new duty. The Classical High School Athletic Association was formed and at Mr. Erick- son's suggestion, the members were given the responsibility of collecting subscriptions and dues from those enrolled in the new organization. Each room was to make a report daily to the treasurer or secretary. The Council members were also in charge of the distribu- tion of tickets in their respective rooms. ln addition, the councillors had their regular task of procuring subscriptions for the Argus to perform. It would seem that the room representatives were attended with great success, for in spite of 'LOld Man Depressionu the paper was vividly circulated. Later, in November, came Parents' Night, under Miss Ryan's able direction, when the members of the Student Council proved their worth by acting as ushers for the entertain- ment in the hall as well as for the reception of the parents afterward. At Mr. Fenner's suggestion, President Brooks appointed a library committee to keep the library in better condition. VVe have nothing but praise to offer our Student Council, and may we extend the wish that the Councils which are to come in future years may be as successful in carrying out their duties as the one which served in 1931 and 1932. Stamp Club The Stamp Club, one of the more recently formed organizations of the school, is composed of students who have an interest in philately as their hobby. The ofhcers of the club are president, VVilliam F. Hall, vice-president, Iames Sullivan, secretary, Harrison Crouch, treasurer, Herbert Grundstrom. The membership is not restricted to those who may have had knowledge on the subject previous to joining, nor is it restricted to boys, The sole object of the club is to bring together in organized fashion those who wish to trade stamps and keep up on the news of the philatelic world. The club has certainly enjoyed an interesting year and is looking forward to another like it with Mr. Couming again as faculty adviser. Sixfy-one Zoerofessine Q Q55 fisfaisgariahns QQ Cp ' KJ' ' ' ' The Science Clubs The Agassiz Club has received a new lease on lite this year under the direction of Mr. Bester Weed, the new faculty adviser. In the L ' fall, a trip was conducted to the Sibley Dairy Farm where the members inspected the new milking salon. Later, the group visited the Armour 5 Meat Packing Company. At one of the meetings, Dr. Roger Rochette gave a talk on modern dentistry. Another club whose members are interested in the out-of-doors is the Bird Club which has had an approximate membership of forty this year. Mr. Allan Rice has conducted the group on bird walks and there have been interesting speakers at several of the winter meetings. One of the speakers was Mrs. Gray Harris, who addressed the club on Bird Houses and Bird Feedingf, On another occasion Mr. Wendell P. Parker spoke on familiar birds. A trip to Boston is being planned. There the group will take a bird walk with a similar group from Brookline. The Botany Club, a club also interested in nature study, began its activities this year with an outing to Mr. Rice's camp. Mr. George I-learn conducted a field trip around the camp and a picnic lunch was served. The annual Botany Club reunion was held on No- vember 2Oth in the gymnasium. At one of the regular meetings, Mr. Fred Cole from the VVorccster County Extension Service was the speaker. The Science Club is one of the newer clubs of the school and has had an active year. There has been an average attendance of forty-Hve at the meetings. One of the most inter- esting programs was the one at which Guy I. Patten. the superintendent of the Worcester Gas Company, demonstrated the methods of making illuminating gas. The spring meetings will be devoted to visits to various industrial plants. The Pythagorean Club specializes in one particular science, namely, mathematics. This organization was chosen as the preferred 'outside activity by forty-seven of the one hundred and ten juniors and seniors whose work in mathematics averaged eighty per cent or over. The subject for the yearis work was 'LMakers of Mathematicsf, Six members have re- ceived the club pin in recognition of their completion of an outlined course of special work. Sixly-.Iwo Allettilhteiat The .-Xletheia Literary and Debating Society celebrated its lilitieth anniversary this year. In honor of the event. :Xletheia held an assembly on December 2nd with Mrs. Annie Rus' sell Marble and Miss Francis li. Hunt, former members, as guest speakers: edited the literary department of the December A--1rgzzx,' had its history written for the Sunday Telf- gramj and had a birthday party at the regular meeting in December. The programs for the year consisted of a study of the Masterpieces of Literature, including Chaucer, Spenser. Shakespeare, Bunyan, Milton, Shelley, and Keats, and a most interesting last-meeting program of modern masterpieces An enlightening as well as entertaining afternoon was spent at the Iohn VVoodman Higgins Armory in March. The program committee, of which Beatrice Cohen is chairman, with Miss Shaughnessy's help and suggestions, arranged the programs for the year. The original composition contest sponsored by Mr. Fenner was won by Beatrice Cohen for her poem, Intimations of Madness. An essay. Smoke, by Dorothy Cupit won second place, and Mrs. Podlinf' a character sketch by Mary Quint, third. Honorable mention was given to Barbara Gilmore and Fleanor Crosby for their poems entitled 'LXVill 0' the VVispl' and ln a Bookshop VVindow. Aletheia takes this opportunity to thank Mr. Fenner for the interest he has shown in the club by encouraging this creative worl: among its members. The officers for the year were Barbara Gilmore, president: Melba Spaulding, vice-presi- dentg Phyllis Bieberbach, secretary, and Doris Levenson, treasurer. .Sixly-1!n'cc ci 0 0 0 0 Because of the recent plan of having nightly meetings of greater length than in years previous, we looked forward to a most successful year. The hoard of officers was president, David Power, vice-president, George Brooks, secretary, George Shanagochiang treasurer, Iames Sullivan. The programs consisted usually of spirited debates of two-man teams, preceded by a few well-delivered declamations. Following the Christmas recess, the Assembly held preliminaries for the revival of a debating team. Herzl Rome, Milton Meltzer, Iames McGrady and Mandal Segal were selected. The same students were elected to hold ofiices in the Assembly for the last term. A debate on automobile insurance was given in the hall before the entire student body, Manudal Segal and Milton Meltzer defeat- ing Iames McGrady and Herzl Rome. Unfortunately debates with the other city schools could not be arranged. In March the annual declamation contest was held, Herzl Rome, William Hall and Lawrence Healy being awarded first, second, and third places respectively. The winner was sent to Colby to compete in the annual declamation contest held there. A new method of debating, whereby all members of the Assembly took part, was instituted in April, and proved to be very successful. We, students of 1932, express to Mr. Perry Howe our earnest appreciation of his endeavors in behalf of the society and our thanks for his aid to us as individual members. ' Sixly-fam' The Clliullb Shakespeare, De Quincey, Keats, Shelley, Hardy, Meredith, Galsworthy and Ludwig were each the prey -of discussion at the meetings of The Club, an embryo Iohnsonian group. This boys' literary society, organized this year under the able advisorship of Miss Anna Shaughnessy and apparently doomed to die with the departure of our class, was the only one of its kind at Classical. The total absence of officers, dues, and all formal- ities brought about a wholesome combination of zealous literary appetite and good humor which made the meetings both instructive and entertaining. The limited number of members, each of whom represented a distinctly individual type, helped secure a feeling of interest and congeniality. At the meetings various members gave brief information about the author under dis- cussion and his works. After this there was unlimited open debate, so that while each sitting began in true literary fashion, it sometimes ended with a fiery argument on evolu- tion or fatalism. Among the books which the sapient members of The Club undertook to discuss were the essays of De Quincey, particularly Murder Considered As a Fine Art, from which much instructive information was derived both on murder and the authorls views, and Hnally on his own tragic life. The evening spent on The Return of the Native, by Hardy was also stimulating as the result of an attempted analyzation of the author's fatalistic ideas. The reincarnation of Meredith at the following meeting adforded an interesting contrast with these. Throughout, however, the real enjoyment and benehts came from Miss Shaughnessy whom we sincerely thank for her generous cooperation. S1117 y- fire ARGUS BOARD ZARGUS: Having completed its twelfth consecutive year of existence, the .-lrgzu has upheld the enviable record of a Classical High School paper during 1932. The work was in full swing soon after school started in September, the machinery kept running smoothly under the faculty supervision of Miss Ruth C. Phillips and Miss Gertrude E. XVilliams. The business end cooperated under the eflicient direction of Mr. David K. Arey, who guided Iohn Brand in his management. Iean McGregor, editor-in-chief for her second year, profiting by her experience, made several innovations in the make-up of the paper. The new headings for various depart- ments and columns unified the -Irgus, and special cuts, for example, the block print of the president of the senior class, helped to make a more interesting magazine when coupled with the stories and articles of the Board. The Board of twenty-eight members seemed fortunate in its composition for work of real merit was produced by it. The school notes approached the goal of originality and the special events were recorded in an enjoyable style that helped the reader re-live the good time. 'KTickletoes,,' the humorous section, was well stocked with jokes, parodies, subtle hits, and cunning humorosities. The idea of an exchange column was success- fully continued with increased good-will. The whole school had opportunity to supple- ment the literary department and see the sport results in the athletic write-ups. Running true to form, a directory number was issued in March. The usual comic issue, The Classical Gazettefy was replaced by a voluminous regular one in April. Iune saw the customary number dedicated to the seniorsg this contained quips on their peculiarities and other articles about them, but few by them as graduation drew near bringing all its hustle and bustle. The Board, the largest for several years, which has been responsible for the Argus was unique in another respect-nineteen of its members were seniors. IEAN lb'iCGREGOR ............

The oflicers for 1932 were 1 president, james Sullivan, vice-president, lean MacGregor, secretary, Gonda Chevalier' and treasurer David Power. xv 7 3 if At the meetings, held every other Friday evening, the programs consisted of two or three short plays enacted by various groups of club members. The entertaining sketches served to reveal the dra- matic talents of the players. Those with the most marked ability, provided they were suited for the parts, were selected later for the annual senior play. In February the regular meetings of the club ceased and rehearsals began for Why Smith Left Homef, a rollick- ing three-act comedy, in preparation for the professional-like performance in May. Both Mr. P-ost and the members of the cast are to be commended for their finished performance. The cast consisted of Andrew Brosnihan, David Power, Walter Howard, Lawrence Healy, VVilliam Leonard, Marjorie Brown, Frances Soloway, Katherine Lever, Barbara Wheeler, Gonda Chevalier, Mary O'Connor, and Pauline Ridler. Katherine Lever certainly showed remarkable histrionic talent in a diliicult character role. She knew how to manage refractory lorgnettes, too. David Power assumed a charming French accent and did not forget to act at the same time, the same might be said of Walter Howard as a gutteral German count. lngenues like Gloria Spaulding, Gladys lohnson, and Iane Sampson are not to be forgotten in minor plays at the Friday meetings. james Sullivan and Thelma Cotzin of last year's success are also worthy of praise for their fine contributions to the dramatic programs. May there be many more successful seasons for the Green Room Club. Sixiy-right GIRLS' GLEE CLUI' BOYS' GLEE CLUB THE BAND THE ORCHESTRA Musical Clubs 'Eg Reviewing the past season of the musical organizations is a happy task. Boldly and briefly we say that never in the history of the organ- ,1 izations have they achieved such great success. First, we remember the well-rounded programs of Orchestra A in the assemblies. The Fine rhythm of Evolution of Dixie was out- standing. Two outside engagements were also included in the 1932 season. Many of the members of this group also belonged to Mr. Dann's excellent All-Worcester High School Orchestra. Orchestra B, though not as active as its superior, nevertheless, has prepared most satisfactorily its members for Orchestra A. It also has played for several freshman assemblies. The vocalists of Classical High School turned their art to the Boys, and Girls' Glee Clubs. These groups entertained us on several occasions. Many members also joined Mr. Dann's Consolidated Chorus. We were pleased at Christmas time by the Christmas carols, sung by the Glee Clubs in their parade through the corridors. Finally let us consider the Classical High Band. This organization was not only the IHOSt active in the school but also the most popular. Sousa in his prime would have wel- comed them to his midst. This past season saw the Band expand until it reached fifty strong, and what it possessed in quantity, it also possessed in quality. The stirring music of the Band, its military appearance and drills aided our football team, and put nthe neces- sary color into the games. Whenever our Band was fortunate enough to find competi- tion on the football field, it brought home the bacon. The Band also accompanied the football team on its Hartford and Providence trips. The concert season started with the Band playing at several assemblies, as well as at Sterling, and for the Kiwanis and Rotary Clubs, and for the Captain Hawks lecture. The spring season found the Band marching in several parades, at the Band Conclave of Holy Cross, and for the first time it participated in state competition at Norwood in Class A, where it gave a very creditable performance. On every occasion the Band has been well received and has upheld the proud name of Classical. Favorable comments were often heard on its striking music and its military presence. Parent-Teachers, Night found the Boys' Glee Club and Orchestra A providing the music. It was through the aid of the musical organizations, also, that our graduaton proved a success. The finale of the musical year came with the Annual Pop Concert. Through the efforts of the senior committee: David Power, Richard Rome, Timothy Clifford, and Mandal Segal, chairman, the senior treasury was increased. The concert included in its program every musical organization in the school and also several solo and feature numbers. Orchestra A was the feature of the first part of the program, but the Band was the sensa- tion of the evening. The fine music of Circus Days, a novelty number, excelled any band piece hitherto presented at Classical. The large audience went home, well satisfied with the work of the musical organizations which have been under the very capable direc- tion of their leader, Albert W. VVassell. It is to the musical groups and to Mr. Wassell that the seniors are grateful for an enjoyable musical year.

On top of this we have had a good season. Classical placed second in the lndoor Meet and we had consistently good performances from Brooks, Magnan, Lajousky, Strong and others. The outdoor track season opened with a dual meet, between Classical and Commerce, Commerce defeating us 55 to 49. Brooks, Magnan, Lajousky and Halpin starred. Classical then journeyed to Durham, N. H., and to Harvard. At Harvard, Magnan broad-jumped nineteen feet, ten and one--half inches. Then came the Inter-High Games. North was first with 44 points, South second with 372, Classical third with 26, and Commerce fourth with 212. Brooks, Lajousky and Halpin took four first places. Brooks won the 100 and the 220 in fast time. Ioe Hal- pin, our stellar long distance man, ran the fastest half-mile here in twenty years to win handily in one second under record time. Bill Lajousky shattered the shot put record with a heave of forty-four feet, eleven inches. Other Classical entrants were White in the pole vault, Williamson and Belisle in the quarter mile, Sobel in the mile, Coleman and Atwood in the high jump, and Harry and Charlie,, Murch in the hurdles. On May 27th, the squad went to Gardner, on Iune 4th, it participated in the Fitchburg Relay and finished its schedule with the Worcester County Meet at Fitchburg on Iune llth. Seventy-fam' Fooitba 1 The football season of 1931 was very successful, Classical sharing a triple tie for the inter-high championship with South and Commerce, and in the whole season wining five games while losing only two. Classical showed power and offensive strength in burying Providence Classical 33-0 in the opening game. Our championship stock soared when we defeated Commerce 19-0, but fell when the Blue and VVhite was handed a 6-0 defeat by South. The team redeemed itself, however, conquering Providence Tech 26-0. In the next game we were the victims of a 26-7 reversal at the hands of the Hartford Public High pigskin-toters, but returned to lorin to triumph over North by a 12-7 score. The season was brought to a successful conclusion by a 19-7 victory over St. Iohn's. The entire team played hard and well, and every member is deserving of credit. How- ever, some players whose work was outstanding were Karpawich, Adamaitis, Lajousky, Hardy, Leary, Gauthier, Furman and Suliotis. The squad was composed of the following: Laskolf, McCafferty, Miron, Lajousky, D. Hardy, Leary, Adamaitis, Gauthier, Furman, Nanartonis, Karpawich, Pavolis, Meleski, Feldman, Levine, McGrady, Maher, Magnan, Margosian, Suliotis, Orchiuch, L. Hardy, Belisle, Creswell, Santell, Lucason, VVeeks, Almgren, Kirklauskas, Yousouhan, Healy, Leventhal, Perkins, Coleman, Dine, Hutchins, Burke, Couming, Skidauskas, Schorr, Yetvin and Power, manager. , Credit for the teamis line showing is in no small measure due to the patient work of Coaches Cantwell, Erickson and Hardy.

The Tech Seconds The opening of the varsity basketball season is invariably marked by a feeling of anxiety on the part of all concerned. from the coach to the individual rooter. So it was at Classical. The tide of hope was at a low ebb, as the annual toll claimed by graduation was high. However, the unexpected addition of Paul Suliotis, who had transferred fro the squad, undoubtedly did much to brighten the outlook. B show.

North again fell victim to our team, 28 to 12. Un February 16th, in the return game with Commerce, something went disastrously wrong, and our badly battered team lost. 36 to 20. After a lapse of three weeks, thc team traveled to Norwich, Connecticut, and lost, 26 to 23. Despite the fact that we outscored our opponents in total points, 232 to 216, the season was not very successful, since we won live games and lost six. Better luck next seasonl Baseball The baseball team so far this year has had a rather poor season, so far as victories are concerned, being handicapped by lack of veteran material. The squad has had to be developed mostly from green players and this has necessitated much hard work. Classical this year has been a hard hitting array, out-hitting her opponents in every contest, but being overcome because of shaky defense and errors at crucial moments. Classical's best twirler, Foster McCalTerty, has not showed up particularly well owing to an injury received in football last fall, this lack of what undoubtedly would have been fine hurling has handi- capped the Tigers. However, his shoes have been eapably filled by lien Breen and 'kliddien Curtin. The present lineup has Dave Hardy, a hard hitter, at the backstop position. Dave' is rated as the best of the inter-high receivers. Bill Adamaitis capably covers the initial sack, with VVoody Spencer at second, and Franny Fitzsimmons at shortf Jackie Levine, diminutive guardian of the hot corner, completes the infield. The gardeners include George Hanlon at left, Dick'! Leary at center, and Dick Mullan in right. At present the Tiger outfit is resting comfortably in the cellar: but much improvement has been shown, and there are high hopes of vacating said position before the end of the season. Coach Bob lirickson has been bending his efforts toward developing a winning team for next year, and present indications are that Classical will be among the leaders at that time. .sflfllfy-5Cl'l'I1 HOCKEY TEAM TENNIS Girls' Hockey Our girls started out this year with an enviable record to maintain, a championship, no games lost, and no goals scored against them. This year the straight-shooting forward line, with Captain Syb' Nancy Thurston and lane Sampson playing the other forward posi- tions and backed up by three hard working halfs, Manager Hon Crosby, Ginny,, Conant, and Vera Adam, played havoc with the enemy goals, while those two fast fulls, Berta McAlister and Georgia Oswell with Anne Athy, our plucky little ugoalief' kept the ball up the Field. X N v In spite of the fact that four of the season games were ties, the record was maintained and now stands, two championships and no games lost for two years. The games were well-played and always furnished plenty of excitement,-fast and furious attacks on the offense alternating with calm, accurate, well-timed defense plays. The splendid teamwork and good-sportsmanship of the girls command applause. With only four of the squad leaving this year Miss NVhitin, whose untiring efforts and splendid work with the girls have made them champs, should have another championship team next year. We wish her luck! The scores of the games follow: Gould, high scorer, at center and Mae Wren, Iean MacGregor, Classical 0 Commerce 0 Classical 3 North 2 Classical 0 South 0 Classical 1 Commerce l Classical 3 North 3 Classical 2 South 0 O Tennis This year's tennis tournament, one of the most interesting of several years, provided several surprises. In the semi-finals both matches were strongly contested and excellently played. Virginia Conant defeated lean VVhite by a score of 6-2, 6-4 and Marjorie Rae defeated Ruth Friedman 6-2, 3-6, 7-5. Then Virginia Conant won the school champion- ship by her 62, 6-4 victory over Marjorie Rae in the finals. With the opening of the inter-high series We were confident of retaining our cham- pionship status and in the first two matches, the only ones played to date, our confidence has been fully justified. In these matches the team, consisting of Virginia Conant, Ger- trude Budish and Marjorie Rae gained six points by defeating both South and Commerce. The individual scores with South were as follows: Virginia Conant versus Barbara Munroe, 6-4, 6-8, 6-lg Marjorie Rae versus Elizabeth Kasperian 6-l, 4-6, 64, Gertrude Budish versus Barbara Palser, 6-0, 6-lg those with Commerce: Virginia Conant versus Doris Allison, 6-0, 6-0, Gertrude Budish versus Phyllis Langhill 6-4, 6-1, and Marjorie Rae versus Louise Hamil 6-4, 6-1. The final match was played against North on Iune 7th. These are the scores: Virginia Conant versus Agatha Strong, 3-6, 6-0, 7-5, Gertrude Budish versus Ruth Kenny 6-0, 6-4 and Marjorie Rae versus Helena Perry 6-0, 5-7, 6-3, which bring to Classical for the second year in succession the long coveted tennis championship and in addition the new Girls' All 'Roundv Sports Cup. Seventy-nine Girls?

Qur fresh- men broke even, winning three games and losing three. The sophomores had a Firm grip on the title, having won three and tied one game in six, only to lose it linally by a matter of seconds and one basket. The juniors, also, were in the running until the last minutes of the final game, when they met defeat in the form of the Blue and Gold. They will furnish some promising material for next yearls varsity. The seniors put up a plucky Hght, but came out on the short end of their scores. The varsity, led by K'Hort Crosby, who captured the title of city high-scorer, gave the uehampsl' plenty of competition and easily took a close second place. The girls had a fine spirit and a high sense of sportsmanship, and through Miss VVhitin,s efforts presented a well-coached, well-organized team. The varsity players were Hortense Crosby, captain, Sybil Gould, manager, Bernice McCarthy, Virginia Conant, lean White, Vera Adam, and Betty Carroll.

Plimpton Music by Mwgarrfz Wells' Rzdlef Years ago they too were at Classical-- Those who have gone whom we succeed- Stood they stalwart like trees on a mountain, Vlfind-strengthened against their need. And heard, rooted there on that slope near the river-bank, Roar of water breaking below. They must be free and the day came that freed them Down and on to the even How. We have learned as they did at Classical, Rooted in wisdom, lite-giving soil, VVhat to expect and how to accept it, Trained to struggle where others toil. And we, rumbling forth to that bank where the river llows, Fling to the hills our parting song. This is the fair day that marks our departureg Classical, hear us as we go along!

Ninely-six 1 L Qfcotosfuessiito O tgp iwsirasexas G, i ig '32 AT THE POLLS Know ye all men by these presents that the following is and shall be the choice of the Class of 1932: That the persons herein mentioned be known to their families and kinsfolk by the titles given unto them each and severally. By this, the ballot of the class, their last and final choice, Dippy Power is declared to have done most for Classical, and lean MacGregor is the female who took first place in this event. A close vote designated Foster McCatTerty and Gonda Chevalier as the best-looking specimens in the class. An easy bat- tle gave Mandal Segal and Melba Spaulding the title of most studious. Herzl Rome and Barbara Gilmore nosed out several aspirants for the honor of kl10ll'1'!1g most. The task of electing the most likely to succeed was more diflicult than Miss Shaughnessy's Burke tests, but Milton Meltzer and lean MacGregor again were the hard-foughtfor-winners. George Brooks and Gonda Chevalier were chosen the most popular members, while Pluto,, Leonard and Ruth Kinniery were acclaimed, to our amazement, the most modest. Dave Hardy and Hortense Crosby came out in the fore as the best athletes, with Sybil Gould and 'fBill Lajousky still in the money at the Finish. The office of the best natured was shipped off to Paul Suliotis and Dot,' Cupit. The honor of being the chubbiest in the class was given by an overwhelming vote to Dippy', Power and uDot,' Churchill, who since have gone on a diet of grapefruit. Billy Maher with his knickers and Ruth Leahy with her red dresses managed to gain the posi- tion of the best dressed. Fritz Prentice and Ann Chandley squeezed through enough votes to become the best dancers in the thirty-twoersf' 'LDave', Porter, the tennis champ, and Christine Hakanson, the walking dictaphone, came into prominence by being the tiredest. It took a stiff skirmish before Mandal Segal again and Barbara Gilmore won their second title, the most versatile. Everyone started strong for the most cynical, but Fred Plimpton and K'Lib', Goff had two more votes and so won. From Room 6 we drew the two quietest, 'LDick Keenan and Helen Cate. Leo Laskofl easily won the title of the noisiest, but Muriel Manning, of the Manning Siamese twins, had a more difficult task to win the girl's part of the same subject. ulimmyh Sullivan and Phyllis Bieberbach finished ex aequo for the most original. Everyone received several votes for the nfittiest and the most reliable, so we believe no plurality can justly be reached. The title of typical Classi- cal boy and girl could Hnd no definite resting place so this was also discarded. The lower half of the ballot received some interesting answers. uTeddy,' Cfrom the store across the street won the title of who did Classical most Qwhatever that meanslj. The class went through the formality of bestowing the title of class politician on Mandal Segal, and in that case you know who is class business man. The modest Class acclaimed the little pronoun Men as the greatest asset although some diligent pupils gave their votes to a certain teacher. The greatest liability was a close contest between Laskoff and the Senior Dances, with the latter winning by a nose. Charles Prentice was also a double win- ner by hoofing away with class social hound. English with a handicap of Burke, Brown- ing, and Burns, nevertheless, ran a beautiful race in capturing the title of the most valuable course. The most helpful activity was bestowed upon the twins, Debating and Declaim- ing. Highest honor ranged from joining the Aletheia Auxiliary to -l D's , with president of the Dummy Room coming through in front. fCongratulations Breenlj Few agreed on favorite recreation, but a ndateu with Fred Plimpton won over Fourth l-lours by the scant margin of .3333 1-3 votes. Favorite books turned out to be l3 Men and good old Burke. When it came to naming the favorite magazine, the seniors were divided between Ballyhoo and the Argus, but the high-brows managed to put over the former as winner. Ninety-sever: lgvootuagessao 0 C630 lwityaexaisla X-J The fuzforitc luxury was 'gin the bag!! for sleeping in class. Of course matrimony was chosen as the favorite study. The ballots made a few other startling revelations but a cautious nature forced us to withhold these results from the eyes of man.

What I'm trying to say, not that anyone cares particularly, is that there should be a law against people who drink soup in the key of E-Hat. Don't put this in the basket yet, the rest is really vitally important. You see, it was like this: Three weeks ago next snow storm, I had to try out for Glee Club. Having previously practiced the scale of C for hours, I was well prepared for the ordeal. And now comes the rub! A fellow sufferer at the lunch counter started inhaling his soup in the key of E-Hat. Of course this threw me all oII tune, assuming that I was on in the first place, and I failed to qualify. Imagine my embarrassment when I opened my mouth to sing middle C, and E-flat Jo J ed out. What do yolu itiiggest that I do about it? Dsyncrnn OSURAC. Editoris note: We suggest that you and some of those soup singers get together and organize a jazz band. You might make moneyf P. S.
