I believe in Springfield for what it is, a city of homes, churches, schools, colleges, libraries, museums, art galleries, parks, playgrounds, hospitals, social centers, a city of pronounced civic pride, patriotism and benevolence, and a conspicuous moulder of public opinion through press and pulpit. I believe in that larger and better Springfield that shall be :—a city where no one shall ever suffer for lack of skill, no citizen shall be without the will and opportunity to work, no home without a friend, no industry without a just wage and cooperative spirit; a city where the Golden Rule shall be the general practice and Good Will the underlying motive, “its strength not steel nor stone nor wood, but justice, love and brotherhood.’’ If you can subscribe to this creed, take your place and do your part.

Beth :—Will we never leave this “Forest of Time”, Mac? Mac:—Wherefore wouldst thou make haste, woman? We have as yet merely gazed upon present and past. There is yet the future to be encountered. No Bunco? Bunco:—You said it, son! I wonder where we’ll all be in ten years. Beth:—Gaze not at present, but methinks I perceive three shadowy figures yonder. Bunco:—Speak, hags! Who be you? Witches in unison :—We are the guardians of the future (Mac, Beth and Bunco start to come closer.) First Witch :—Hold! Come no closer lest we vanish. Second Witch:—Stand away lest our spell be broken. Third Witch:—Remain beyond this line. (Draws line.) Mac:—We wish but to see the future. Witches: None but the guardians may do that. Bunco:—You could give us a preview, couldn’t you? First Witch:—What would yc mortals know? Beth :—Tell us of our class! First Witch:— Hush! I think I see a courtroom— Second Witch:— You bet you do, for see. The guy that’s dressed up like a judge, Is Michael Chcchettc. The plaintiff’s Eileen Sharon, She’s suing Charlie Walker, His lawyer’s Dorothy Thompson, And we know that she’s some talker. There’s only one that's missing, That’s the district attorney— Ah, there he is—a famous one, Why, it’s red'headed Vinny Abrahamson. First Witch : The fire it goes round and round. Now we’re at the Polo Grounds! Now Marion, she’s the champion, The contender’s Natalie Ruhc! The announcer’s pretty hazy— It’s—gee! I wonder who? Third Witch :— Why it’s Eudocia Panafrangos, The one that they call Coola, She thought we didn’t know it. But I guess that this’ll fool ’er. There’s only two remaining, 1 wonder who they be— One’s that little girl, Gert Ford, And she’s the referee. The other’s Janice Curran, My, but she looks keen' She’s partner to the champion— A sparring one I mean. Second Witch:— The fire turns around. To a place of education; Every one’s very busy. It’s the day before vacation. It looks like a prize-fight, Just look at all the crowd' They’re cheering Marion Rogers, And they’re yelling awful loud. It looks like a college, Where every one has fun— There goes Bennie Fine. Who looks like he’s having some. 29 1636. ..CADUCEUS. ..1936 Mac:— Huh! If I was dean of women, I guess chat I would, coo. Bunco:— He always got the lucky breaks, When ic came to making daces. First Witch:— I sec Mardcll Dougherty. Who's having a good time. She’s the dean of all the men. Giving orders was in her line. Edward Bryzs is teaching law, And why we shouldn't have a war. Mary Hurley’s teaching Latin, And how to sew well with a pattern. Third Witch :— Frances Hickey is disciplinarian, And tells girls why co he vegetarians. The last of the teachers is Bill Reopell, Who’s giving instructions in how co sing well. Chuck Partridge and Neal Quimby Arc on the football team. Jack Kelliher and Ethicr Arc both gridmen supreme. We can’t leave out the cheer leaders, Who yell at every game— Naomi Duffy and Pearl Baru Have won themselves some fame. Second Witch:— Oh, I see some musicians! It’s a German band, And they’re leading the parade Of the best circus in the land. (Bcch seeps over line drawn by witch.) Second Witch:—-You have broken our spell! lest our spell descend upon us. (Exeunt.) Mac:—(to Beth) What hast thou done? Alas, Beth:—Take it easy. The pot’s still here. Let’s Bunco: You can’t see a thing! (Starts away.) Beth :—Wait, it’s clearing! Why, look! There’s Don Ferguson and Stuic Hill, John Tilley and Bob Russell, They’re blowing long and loud, And making quite a bustle. First Witch :— The next in the parade. Is the lady lion trainer. I'm sure it’s Molly Olitsky, I couldn’c see her plainer. Ah, here come the tumbling clowns, Rosina dc Maio and Don Porter, And here is Greta Keylander, Who is a tight-rope walker. Third Witch :— Look at Izzy Snyder, Who is the tattooed man. He must have been in Florida, ’Cause he’s got an awful tan. Roland Dufault, the bearded lady, Looks like he wants to sneeze, While Raymond “Diz Dionne, Is the man on the flying trapeze. Second Witch:— Jeremiah Callahan Is bending bars of steel; He’s the strong man of the outfit, While Bill Josko’s job’s to spiel. He’s the barker of the circus. The one that deals wich fleas, And when he’s selling tickets. He says “Come, folks, this way please.’’ We muse away! Make haste, sisters, all was too perfect! look in. I sec a night club. That’s called The Tiger Rug, It’s a very ritzy place, ’Cause no one can come stag. There’s McKeon and ViVenzio, And both of them are boss. They look very prosperous. They're making dough, because, Nora Berccra, who’s the hostess. Will show you to your place. And she looks very glamorous. In a gown that’s made of lace. Mac:— The one who’ll serve your meal, Is Mike Ziter and no other. He’ll see that you don’t walk off. With the silverware under cover. Millie Higginbotham’s the hat check girl. Who’s the one in pantalettes? Why, it’s only Alexandra Marines, Who’s selling cigarettes. And then you hear music, From the best band in the land, You want to know the leader? Well. Irv Weinstein is the man. 3« 1636.., CADVCEVS. .1936 Bunco:— Every night club has a crooner, And a dance team, too: While Depalo docs the singing, Guidcttc and Guerra do a waltz or two. Again the scene is changing, 1 wish that stay we could— But if I’m not mistaken, We’re now in Hollywood. We’re witnessing the filming Of The Three Musketeers. And the acting of Lil Genden, Will thrill anyone to tears. Mac:— Scl Goldstein is the handsome Duke, While Lilly plays the Queen, And Aurcl Granger the cameraman. Waits to shoot the scene. 1 hear the peals of trumpets, Which call to the musketeers. With Dot McKay and Phil McCaffrey, Juliet Joseph appears. Director Don Trepanier, Is tearing out his hair. While sound-effect man. Jack Smith’s fiddle, Emits squeakings through the air. Beth:— Kitty Clarke, she goes around, Trying to get screen tests. While Thelma Cohen stalks about As understudy co Mac West. The costumes of this picture, Were so beautifully screened, Because they were designed By the latesc fashion team. Berenson and Bloisc, Have set up shop you know, And if you want to buy a gown. Of course co them you go. Bunco:— 1 think I see an editor— Ed Satter, to be sure' He now edits Qood Housekeeping, And he is far from poor. Marie Bianchi’s writing Articles on how to cook. Soon she’ll have them published Into a little book. Angela Media villa, Has won a prize for her play, The name of it is Jeanie And it's not so hot, they say. John Sullivan’s a columnist, Who will do in a pinch, While all the cartoons in the papers, Arc drawn by our old friend Pinch. Beth:— If you turn on your radio, And hear a note that’s sour, Why, it’s only Mickey Marcus, Gonging his amateur hour. To housewives all over the country, There’s a helper indispensable. He gives them hints on housekeeping; He’s Elmer Anderson, the sensible. Phil Hart has topped Ben Bernie, And how he can act silly! While Agnes Braica has got some fame, Singing like Beatrice Lillie. We have two girls in opera, Who warble like birds in spring; Cimmic Silver, and Olive Laflucr, To us these honors bring. Mac:— We’re now in Ethiopia, I wonder who’s the king’ None other chan Alley Hassin, And he looks quite the thing. He uses Lou Riel as bodyguard, And Lou he sure does scare 'em. While Jello Agan, the handsome brute, Has say over all the harem. And now we have the sleuth supreme, To whom a pistol is a toy— He’s the warden of the prison, Our good friend George McCoy. Mac:—Ic’s clearing again. Beth :—Well, I guess that’s all. Bunco:—Too bad we couldn’t see more of them! Bunco. That's all, kiddies! This is the children’s hour signing off.

Our parents and friends are proudly viewing us. I wonder whether you remember the first time we assembled here? Let’s turn the years back. That memorable day in January witnessed the arrival of about four hundred verdant pupils, with baby faces and scared looks. In the eyes of our junior high pals, we had become fine grown-up men and women but do you remember the shock that awaited us? To the high and mighty seniors of Commerce, we were just mere tots! Remember the bewildering time we had in finding our home rooms, how eagerly we waited for our program cards, and how patiently we listened for the bell to dis- miss us to our first class! What a unique experience it was to be called “Miss” or “Mr.” by our teachers, and to return home at night with an armful of books, so that the people in the trolley could sec them and know that we went to high school. As XB’s, we were fortunate enough to have for our faculty advisers, Mrs. Bartlett and Miss Clark. With their aid we organized, and elected the following officers: President: Charles Walker Vice-President: Norman Hare Secretary: Stella Arieti Treasurer: Selden Goldstein Member-at-Large: Greta Keylander Then came our very own reception, given to us by the Class of January 1934. Our first social was held in the girls’ gym. on a fine bright day in May. Remember the excitement, new dresses, efforts at dancing, and later the refreshments? The next year sped along; soon we were juniors and elected new officers to guide us through that important time: President: Edwin Satter Vice-President: William Josko Secretary: Dorothy Thompson Treasurer: Charles Walker Member-at-Large: Eileen Sharon After a good rest during vacation, we came back in September ’34 and settled right down to business. Probably one of our most successful socials was held jointly with the XlB’s. Many novelties prevailed during the evening. Soon after, we had our Christmas Assembly, the outstanding event of our junior year. It was our privilege to invite the women from the Home on Chestnut Street and the men from the Home on Walnut Street to join us in our cheer. The stage was decorated with an inviting fire- place and two large Christmas trees. Jolly and merry was our Santa Claus, William Josko, who had a laugh packed in his bag for everyone. After he had distributed gifts to our guests, we all, orchestra, guests, and students joined in singing Christmas carols. Everyone went home in a happy mood that day. Before we realized it, we were XIlB’s. At the polls we elected a new set of officers: President: Charles Walker Vice-President: Dorothy Thompson Secretary: Eileen Sharon Treasurer: Edwin Satter Member-at-Large: Eudocia Papaerangos Our class was in charge of the Freshman Reception, many parents and friends at- tending so that they might become better acquainted with the faculty and the school. Addresses of welcome were given by Mr. Smith and Edwin Satter, and an entertain- ment by the girls’ gym. classes and the orchestra. It wasn’t long before we became XlIA’s. How proud we were!—dignified seniors, wearing armbands to distinguish us from the lower classmen. After three years of 33 1636. ..CADUCEUS. ..1936 drilling on school rules, we really felt capable of regarding ourselves as loyal citizens of Commerce. Class Day the day chat we have waited for ever since we were freshmen—has arrived ac last, with caps and gowns, pictures, fun, and laughter. A few stray tears made their appearance today, but they were tears of JOY. It has been a day that will long be remembered. Next will come the Prom, with its atmosphere of happiness and gaiety, soft music, bright colors, and the rustling of swaying gowns; and after that the Banquet, to which everyone will come with an appetite. We shall never forget it, because it will be the last night that we shall be together as a class, and we must bid farewell to our principal, teachers, and many friends. Now will come chc hardest part of all. We must say goodbye to our three years of high school that have passed all too quickly—for they were the happiest years of our lives. We have felt the thrill of hearing our names read on the Honor Roll; we have experienced the sting of failure to pass a test or to make a team. To Mr. Ellis, the father of this school, to Mr. Buret, who started us on our high school course, and to Mr. Smith, under whose guidance we have continued our efforts, we owe a debt of gratitude. We shall always remember our motto, “Industry and Integrity”, which in fresh- man days had very little meaning to us, but today is something chat we value deeply. As it has guarded us in the past, may it be a light for our fucure. Class Historian: Teresa Di Santi 3$f)at fteallp Counts When Commerce days are over And we begin life’s ways, I wonder if we think of Our gain from all those days. Some learned to add and typewrite With few mistakes or none, Some learned of law and history - Of what brave men have done. Some learned to write in shorthand, Acquire speed, and read The letters that they’ve written. Some value a good deed. I think it is conceded, We forget much that we learn, After school is finished, And to life’s work we turn. To me it is our friendships, That really count in life, We have our troubles, it is true, And worry, work, and strife. We’ve injured people’s feelings, Said things that were not true, We’ve envied chose about us For the good work they could do. Let’s all start now to change our ways, It’s not too late to learn, And make ourselves so likeable, That many friends we’ll earn. Be nice to those about you, Be fair, and good, and true, And many friends worth keeping, The years will bring to you! 34 Eileen Sharon 1 636. ..CADUCEUS. . . 19 3 6 Pp jese presents (class will, condensed) K-now All Men by Ti iese Presents, chat we, the January Class of 1936 of the High School of Commerce, in the City of Springfield, the County of Hampden, and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, being of sane mind, memory, and judgment, do hereby make, declare, and publish this, our last will and testament, and earnestly desire that these, our last requests, be carried out as herewith directed. First. To Mr. Jerome Burtt, our former principal, we leave our earnest wishes for his continued success. Two. To our present principal, Mr. S. O. Smith, we wish to express our deep appreciation for what he has done, and sincerely hope that his life will be filled to the brim with success and joy. Three. To Mrs. Bartlett and Miss Clark, our faculty advisers, we bequeath our heartfelt appreciation for their untiring efforts in all our activities. Four. To all members of the faculty we leave our gratitude for the knowledge we have received from them. Five. Our Class President, Charles Walker, bequeaths to John Gaffney, President of the X11B Class, this cow bell, which was handed down to him by a preceding president, to call his herd together. Six. To the whole school we leave our sincerest sympathy in their hour of be- reavement caused by our departure. Seven. Donald Trepanier leaves this book of original alibis to Charles Madamas for future use, and for additions which he can so ably supply. Eight. Mildred Higginbotham leaves a bar of Palmolive soap to Francis Zcrwitz with the hope that it will help him keep his schoolboy complexion ruddy and fresh. Nine. To all seniors who have been so grievously disappointed at the lack of tea at the Student Council Tea Dances, we leave full rights to a Ceylon Tea Plantation. Ten. Eileen Yates leaves her sense of humor to Dorothy Chipman, to be used in Law next semester. Eleven. Donald Ethier leaves a new pair of scissors to James Lloyd, so that Jimmie will have them on hand when he gets a Harvard clip next summer. Twelve. Irving Weinstein leaves his musical ability and talent to Dorothy Ryland, hoping she will succeed in her musical career. Thirteen. Olive Lafluer bequeaths to Mr. Watkins a whole box of corn plasters to take with him the next time that he goes abroad. We are very sorry but we looked in vain all over Springfield, and were unable to find a mustache cup (because it is too old-fashioned) for his latest achievement. Fourteeyi. To the Commerce Kitty, Doris Wallace leaves a rubber mouse to con- sole her for the loss of the Commerce mouse. In testimony whereof, we, the January Class of 1936, have set our hand and seal unto this, our last will and testament, written on this tenth day of December in the year of our Lord one thousand nine hundred and thirty-five, at the High School of Commerce in Springfield, Massachusetts.

The walk over frozen Brooks St Myers was Long, St just as the children ascended the Hill, the Bell rang. They hurried on, only to have Mistress Davis, the School-Dame, (for you see there were no school Masters here then) bid them Welcome with the following remark: “Why are you late for school this morning?” After the pupils had Sedelow, the eldest came forth and explained: “We would have been here on time, St everything would have been Fine if we had not stopped to watch the Fowler Hunt the Partridge St the Fox in the Bushey Cjreenwood. Then, too, we watched the Fisher Speer the Poliak through the ice on the Connecticut River, St the Indians catch the turtles in the Tourtellotte.” After all the explanations were given to Mistress Davis's satisfaction, she said: “ O' Neil, dear children, St we shall say our morning prayer.” Due to the fact that the children had started the day wrong by coming to school late, they raised Kane until Mistress Davis decided to take the child causing the dis- turbance St Lickcr, at which act the others cried: “Don’t Her ter I The schoolboys St the schoolmaids then began to Reed, St peace St quiet reigned until loud noises were heard coming from the direction of Satter's bench. “What are you doing? You’re making enough noise to Braica log in two,” said Mistress Davis. To this Satter replied : “By my faith, Mistress Davis, I was just trying to comb McKcrley hair.” At recess, the children, Totten their lunches of Pease, bread Stc, went into the Hall. Here Rutin told Masi about the Silver bracelet which the son of the Squire had given to the daughter of the Miller. The gossip was well Nye underway when the Bell rang for the afternoon session. At this time Mistress Davis started her Quiriy about the lessons. The children practised writing with Quill pens, St Agan all was well until Mari, Phelan Kiel Tremblay, became stricken with a Paine which proved to be an acute exacerbation of a Kronick illness. As Mistress Davis did not want her to Dionne her hands, she suggested that Mari go home. A strong Brzys had been blowing Cooley since morning, so Mis- tress Davis, Anderson Joseph, asked Mari if they might Walker home. She said : “That would be DeVine. And so school was dismissed, St all the children started on their journey homeward through the Midwood to return again on the Morrow. .3 5 1636. ..CADVCEVS. .19 3 6 39 1636. ..CADUCEUS. ..1936 Mrs. Marion H.

ANNOUNCED, by the Caduceus Staff : The three hundredth anniversary of Springfield, celebrated in May, 1936, permits no other theme for the year-book than the tercentenary idea.

I must have for my very own this tract along the river, and I’ll name it Springfield after the old home town in England. I won’t steal the land, cither, as some of the settlers do, but buy it legally with this ivonderful necklace which Miss Roberts has had for the last three years in the Lost and Found Department. It’s a genuine Woolworth, too. (A heavy tramping is heard outside. William Pynchon puts necklace in his pocket hastily.) At last they’re coming. (Enter Eta-bita-Pi with four of his warriors:) We have come, oh White Chief, to smoke the pipe of peace and sell you a bit of real estate. I understand you are going to develop the river bank in a big way. William Pynchon : Well, not exactly in a big way, but I might put up a few old colonial houses for my descendants to rave over in 1936. But, say, are you real Indian braves? You look just like Commerce Seniors to me. Eta-Bita-Pi . Oh, we’re brave enough. We all had English twice with Miss Rankin. William Pynchon : But where are your tomahawks? Eta'Bita-Pi : We had to leave them in our lockers—Mr. Smith’s rule, you know. William Pynchon: But you have no war paint. Eta-BitA'Pi : The girls stole it for their finger nails. William Pynchon . Somehow I’m still a bit doubtful. What can you do to con- vince me that you are Indians? Eta-BitA'Pi : We might do our war dance and sing our song, the one called Report Card Blues. We ought to have our Ziegficld chorus of Indian maids to help us, but alas, they are in the defiles of the forest, filing. William Pynchon : I know how to summon them. (Qoes to right of stage and shouts through megaphone.) Commerce Beauty Contest—a football hero will be given to each contestant. (Qirls come running in and join with boys in war dance and song.) SONG (Tune—A Little Peach in the Orchard Qrew). A little “E” on the record grew (Listen to my tale of woe), A little “E” of crimson hue, And strange to say, it made me blue; Boo-hoo, boo-hoo, Listen to my tale of woe. A little talk did then ensue (Listen to my tale of woe), A little talk of what to do To turn that crimson “E” to blue; Boo-hoo, boo-hoo, Listen to my tale of woe. 67 16 3 6. . .CADUCEUS.. . 19 3 6 A little “A” on the record grew (Listen to my tale of joy,) A little “A —no crimson hue Adorned my card to make me blue; Yoo-hoo, yoo-hoo, Listen to my tale of joy. William Pynchon: Very good, very good, indeed. I’m sure you’re genuine now. Perhaps you would like a little refreshment before signing the contract. Let’s go down to the lunch room. Eta-Bita-Pi : There’s really no use at all in going. The teachers have all got there first. You ought to have seen Mr. Watkins filling up his tray! William Pynchon: The contract then. Are you ready to sign? (Produces long scroll. Reads.) All the land from Longmeadow to Chicopee for this beautiful genuine Woolworth necklace. (Holds up necklace.) Eta-Bita-Pi : You’ll have to leave out King Philip’s Stockade. That’s supposed to belong to the Indians. The histories are all printed, and you know the tax payers just won’t stand for any new books. Besides, the Kumtux Club reserves it for a picnic every year. William Pynchon: If I leave out King Philip’s Stockade, I’ll have to take one bead off the necklace. Eta-Bita-Pi: But I must have all the necklace— I promised it to Miss Marsden for her art class. Instead I will grant you the rights of crashing the gate at the next G. O. Pop. William Pynchon : No, I prefer the privilege of going late into Miss Dearborn’s class. Eta-Bita-Pi : You’d need two stockades then. Well, take your old bead, but I insist that you put it in the G. O. Reserve Fund. William Pynchon: (Removes one bead and hands the rest of the necklace to Eta-Bita-Pi.) Then, that’s settled. But do you understand the nature of a contract? All the Warriors in Chorus: Oh, yes, we took commercial law with Mr. Clancey. William Pynchon : I want you to understand that this contract is made without duress, fraud, or misunderstanding. By the way, can you write? Eta-Bita-Pi : Of course, I can write. Didn’t Miss Libby fail me three times in penmanship? (Signs the contract.) William Pynchon: Now, I must see the settlers, for we must frame our con- stitution and by-laws. Indian Maid. I know where you can get a lovely frame for your constitution, but there isn’t a single place in Springfield where you can buy laws. Second Indian Maid: I bet Charles Madamas has some. Don’t you remember how many extra ones he always seemed to have in class meetings? (Looks off the stage, shading her eyes. Stage darkens.) Oh, look, there is a mist rolling up. Perhaps it’s smoke. (Bell rings.) It must be smoke, for that’s the fire drill gong. (All start to ivalk out leisurely.) William Pynchon: You’re wrong. It’s not a fire drill, but the beginning of A” lunch. (All race out except William Pynchon.) Alone at last with my contract and my bead! They didn’t know it was a magic bead. I declare it is growing dark in this mist, but with this bead I can sec right through it for three hundred years to the Springfield that is to be. (Stage is entirely dark) 68 1636. ..CADUCEUS... 19 3 6 Scene I.—The High School of Commerce Stage Time—2936 CHARACTERS William Pynchon Class Historian John Gaffney Mildred Winquist Rica Lussier Chorus of High School of Commerce Seniors William Pynchon: Well, three hundred years have certainly done a lot for the old place. Who would have thought there would be such a big city where just land used to be! Nothing’s the same but the old Connecticut and Watershops Pond. No more Indians, and as for wild life, there’s just the Commerce Lunch Room and the lion cubs in Forest Park Zoo. I suppose if I want to see what three hundred years of civilization can do, I ought to study the life and history of the June Class of 1936 of the High School of Commerce. (Qoes to one side of stage.) (Enter chorus of boys and girls, dressed in childish costumes, carrying dolls, slates, toys, etc. Also enter girl with spectacles, carrying notebook and enormous pen.) William Pynchon : (Addressing girl.) Who are you and who are these midgets? Class Historian: I am the class historian, and these midgets, as you call them, are members of the Class of 1936 as they looked in September, 1933, when they first came to the High School of Commerce. William Pynchon: Humph! I hope they have improved since then. (To boys and girls.) What could you do in September, 1933? One Boy : We could read Shakespeare. William Pynchon: Very good indeed. I couldn’t have done better myself at that age. And what do you read now? One Boy : The smartest ones can read Miss Halligan’s writing. William Pynchon : Remarkable, and you could write then, I suppose? Second Boy : Oh, yes. We used to write a lot, but now we typewrite, and we are waiting for somebody to invent a machine so all we’ll have to do is just think about something, and have it written by electrical transcription. I bet next year’s seniors won’t even have to think. William Pynchon : This is all very wonderful. But what about your intelligence? How much could you understand when you came to Commerce? One Girl : Oh, we understood quite a lot—we knew all about geometry, and algebra, astronomy, and geology, and— William Pynchon: Say no more. Already you’ve quite upset my poor intellect. But, tell me, can you understand great and harder things now? One Girl : My, yes, we’ve improved a lot! Last week almost half of us understood the jokes in Commerce. William Pynchon : You have learned much, I can see. Now, tell me some more about your school life. Class Historian: Wc weren’t the only beginners in the school. Our principal, Mr. Smith, started in with us. We soon realized that wc must be pretty good, and as freshmen we were. Let us tell you about it. 69 1636. ..CADUCEUS. ..1936 SONG (Tune—Solomon Levi) Oh, we arc Commerce freshmen Who follow every rule, We always bring excuses, If we are lace to school. Our lunches in the basement We always, always eat, And never ask a teacher A question to repeat. (Chorus) Poor Commerce freshmen, Freshmen era la la la. Poor little freshies, Tra la la la la la. Oh, we arc very humble When seniors we do meet. We even bow to juniors When passing on the street. We keep our desks in order, And chewing gum taboo. We never talk or whisper; Our lessons always do. (Chorus) Yes, we were almost perfect And busy as the bees; It lasted one semester, While we were cute lOB’s. We then began to giggle To joke and laugh a bit, And look for other freshies On whom to cry our wit. (Chorus) William Pynchon: (Turning to Class Historian.) What was the next stage in their development? Class Historian : They voted for their class officers, just like real city elections. (Ballot box is placed on table. One acts as checker, handing out ballots to some, and refusing others. They drop ballots in box.) SONG (Tune—The Sideivalks of New York) Voting, voting, Just like Ma and Dad. We cast our freshmen ballots, Each lassie and each lad. Election, election, When the day was done, Five officers were chosen Our class affairs to run. Class Historian: We certainly did feel pretty big, for we were really organized with John Gaffney for president, Beulah Sosnofsky for vice-president, Rita Lussier for secretary, Jack Stevens for treasurer, and Elinor Lodi for member-at-large. The first semester we held an afternoon social with the XA’s in the Gym. They’ll show you how they danced. (Chorus dances wildly and enthusiastically, then leaves stage.) William Pynchon : That cakes me back to old Indian war dances. Was that your only dance? Class Historian : Oh, no, next semester we had another class social. The teachers were all there, the girls were all there, but the boys—well, just see for yourself. (Qirls re-enter, looking around for boys. John Qaffney enters alone.) 70 1 6 3 6 . . . C A D V C E V S . . . 1 9 3 6 SONG BY GIRLS (Tune—Just one Qirl) Just one boy, only just one boy, There are others, I know, but they’re awfully coy. Just one boy, our only chance! We’d be happy if more would dance. (Exeunt Qirls) William Pynchon: That was pretty hard luck, but surely things went better your next semester. Class Historian: Wc had a wonderful party then with the XIA's. The boys covered themselves with glory by winning the Decathlon by making new athletic records. The boys who brought this honor to our class were Pskowski, Lussier, Gould, Camyre, and Bourcier. William Pynchon : Well, what about the girls? Class Historian: Every bit as good as the boys—they won the Gym. Meet But perhaps the best thing wc did that semester was the Christmas Assembly we two Junior classes put on for our friends in the Old Ladies’ and Old Men’s Homes. But I am getting ahead of myself. In the meantime we had voted again and elected new officers. This time wc had Caroline Robbins for president, Anita Brodcur for vice- president, John Gaffney for treasurer, Sarah Arslan for secretary, and Betty Foster for mcmber-at-large. Perhaps you would like to know about our Christmas Assembly? William Pynchon: Indeed, I would. In my day, Springfield was not on Santa Claus’s route at all. Class Historian: This time he came all right, although he arrived by airplane and came in through the steam pipes instead of the old-fashioned way. But Fie left gifts for our guests, the old ladies and the old men; and the classes put on a Christmas play. I’ll let you see what a nice mother Rita Lussier made, and what a sweet child Mildred Winquist was. (Enter Rita Lussier and Mildred Winquist in Christmas play costumes.) Rita Lussier : I was a mother who wore a big shawl And gave cookies and fruit to carollers small. Mildred Winquist: I was a child who trimmed a big tree And sang Christmas carols with gusto and glee. (Both leave stage.) Class Historian: When we returned in September, 1935, you would scarcely have recognized the carefree freshmen of two years ago. It was evident that wc had lived and struggled. William Pynchon: Just like the colonists. Poor things! Many died from scalp trouble. Class Historian: Some of us had an attack of red-mark-itis and scarcely sur- vived. Others had heart attacks of the most violent nature, while still others had a great deal of difficulty in digesting Pease. All of us seemed much older, as you can see. (Enter same group of boys and girls in sports costumes.) However, our spirits were good, for it was the football season, and didn’t our class have five men on the team Phil Hart, James Hogan, Walter Kehoc, John Pskowski, and Francis Spafford! (Football Cheers.) Song—Bingo Class Historian: The two major events of the fall were our reception to the new XB’s and our third and final election. For the first, wc had an animated issue of Commerce, our school paper, to entertain the freshmen and their parents. (Each boy and girl takes one letter of “Commerce” and forms the headline.) 7i 16.' 6 . ..CADUCEUS... 19 3 6 SONG BY CHORUS (T u ne—Ha rrigan) C-O-doublc M-E-R-C-E spells Commerce. It’s a paper that is always known as “A-l . Never a word is found in it but gay fun. C-O-double M-E'R'C'E, you see, It’s a name, that much fame Has always been connected with, COMMERCE, yes, for me. William Pynchon: Whom did you choose in your final election for officers? Class Historian : As in our freshman year, we elected John Gaffney for president, and Rita Lussicr was again secretary. We put Betty Foster in as vice-president, Olga Anderson was our treasurer, and Anita Brodeur was member-at-large. Soon after election we discovered that we had one member who outshone all others, a red light that none of the other Stoaphilos debaters could pass Burt Johnson. If you will look in the library, you will see his name engraved on the Stoaphilos shield. William Pynchon: Burt Johnson is already known to me by sound, for surely I have heard his voice in the corridors. Class Historian: About the time that It Happened in Springfield was filmed, it looked as though wc were going to lose some of our members to Hollywood, but when word got around that arm bands had been ordered, they all decided to stay. The class was positively dizzy for a while from the effect of the arm bands and the music which “went round and round.” William Pynchon : You arc getting pretty near up to modern times. Class Historian : Yes, the history is becoming more of a diary. Of course, this last semester we are pretty busy and nretty important. Wc have committee meetings of all kinds, and now we are looking forward to our Prom., Banquet, and Graduation. That is what is really worrying us, for we don’t see how the principal and faculty arc going to get along without us. William Pynchon: I used to think I was pretty big, too, but Springfield has managed without me for three hundred years. I’ve saved something I’m certain would make me a prominent citizen today if anyone knew I had it. Class Historian . I hardly think so, as history only really started in 1933 when we began our careers. However, perhaps it’s of interest. (Said very indifferently.) What is it? William Pynchon : It’s a magic bead through which I can see your characters and future. Class Historian and Chorus of Boys and Girls: Oh, let’s see it! We want to know our futures! William Pynchon: In order to have the magic bead work, we must have quiet and dark. 72. (Stage is darkened. Chorus leaves.) 1636. ..CADVCEVS. ..1936 Scene II. (William Pynchon and the Class Historian are on the stage. At the left of the stage there is a table, with two chairs near it.) William Pynchon: Here is an excellent place for observation, with table and chairs all provided. Let us sit down, and you must take notes on all you see, for as Class Historian, you arc bound to record everything future as well as past events. Can you write shorthand? Class Historian: Certainly. And am I rapid! I can write almost as fast as Betty Foster can talk. (Enter tivo girls, in caps and gowns, wearing big spectacles, and carrying an enormous book, entitled “ Who's Who in the June Class of 1936.”) William Pynchon : Who are these learned persons coming with the heavy volume? Class Historian : They arc our class statisticians with the book which they have compiled of celebrities of the Class of 1936. William Pynchon: (Looking at book,.) There seem to be many famous people in your class. Class Historian: Oh, my, yes! We’re practically all famous, or at least unusual. William Pynchon. (To statisticians.) Tell me, who are some of the famous people in this book and for what are they famous? First Statistician: (Looking in book ) Oh, we have the class vote on who is the best-looking girl and the handsomest boy : Lena Yacavone and Lawrence Gormally. William Pynchon: My, that’s a wonderful honor, especially as I imagine they must have had plenty of competition. Now, in my day we thought a great deal about character. Have you any facts of that kind? Second Statistician: We have several persons who are well known because of some special characteristic. For instance, on this page are the names of the best natured boy and girl—Philip Hart and Marion Jefferson. William Pynchon : Well, being good-natured is certainly a worthwhile character- istic. (To Class Historian.) Be sure to write that down. First Statistician : Here we have Charles Ethicr recorded as the class pessimist and Richard Boyer and Barbara Sandy as the class optimists. Dick and Barbara tied for this place so we put both their names in our Who's Who. Second Statistician : And, Mr. Pynchon, here we have the name of the person who makes everything go smoothly in the class—Albert Burati, the class diplomat. First Statistician: On this page is a place for the class argucr. That goes to Charles Madamas. He wins again as Class Bluffer. And would you believe it, we have a class giggler and a class flirt? William Pynchon: Such things were not unknown in 1636. Who arc they? First Statistician: Our unanimous choice for class giggler was Betty Foster. Norma Klein won first place as class flirt. Second Statistician: (Turning over a page.) The heading on this page is “The Talented Members of the June Class of 1936.” William Pynchon: Talented members of the class! I am surely curious to know who they are. 73 16 3 6. ..CADUCEUS... 1936 Second Statistician : First are the names of Michael Lagunowich, voted the best boy athlete, and Filamena Janiszewski, the best girl athlete. First Statistician: Wc have also included on this page as the best actor and actress, Albert Burati and Mildred Winquist. But that is not all, for we have class singers as well. Rita Lussicr leads the girls and Fred Archibald the boys. The honors for class musicians go to Edward Lussier and Edwina Partcnhcimer. William Pynchon: Miss Statistician, 1 am interested to know who draws the cartoons that 1 have seen around the building. Is that person a member of your class? Second Statistician: He certainly is, Mr. Pynchon. James Hill, our class artist, draws those cartoons. William Pynchon : You are going almost too fast for our speedy stenographer. Have you any statistics about those prominent in the field of literature? First Statistician : Rica Spano won first rank as class poet, and as class orator, wc have the name of Burt Johnson. But that does not end out list of interesting per' sonalities. We balloted for the most popular boy and girl and found them to be John Gaffney and Sarah Arslan. William Pynchon : You seem to have done a lot of voting. Second Statistician : We tried to include almost everything. For instance, we found out that the best-dressed boy in the class is John Gaffney and the best-dressed girl is Dolores Alvord; that the best all-around boy is Richard Boyer and the best all-around girl is Sarah Arslan. First Statistician: As a class we think chat Olga Anderson is the cutest girl, and that Maurine Potter is the teacher’s delight. The boy who delights the teachers is Elliot Wolk. William Pynchon : I am glad to see you give honors to both boys and girls. The Class Historian is developing writer’s cramp trying to write all this down. Second Statistician: That’s too bad, for there are more to come. Don’t leave out Russell Gunn and Jean Duquette as the boy and girl having the most pleasing personalities. And here we have again the names of John Gaffney and Sarah Arslan as the boy and girl who did the most for the class. Those selected as most likely to succeed are Albert Clauson and Miriam Blitz. First Statistician: Our class has plenty of contrasts, too. We have a class pcewee, Yallie Montessi, and a class giant, Lloyd Balderston. Then we have Thelma Cohen listed as a person with a superiority complex, and Jennie Sikora as a person with an inferiority complex. Our most dignified girl is Maurine Potter. Richard Boyer is our clown. William Pynchon : Someone told me you had a class bore. Second Statistician : We have—Charles Madamas. We chose Ruth Rubinow as our luckiest person and Burt Johnson as our noisiest member. And last but not least, the well-deserved honor of being the most respected student in the June Class of 1936 goes to Miriam Blitz. (Exeunt Class Statisticians.) William Pynchon: We certainly have a lot of interesting material, but now turn to a new page in your note book and take notes on the future. You must transcribe these notes tomorrow, and don’t forget to give Miss Nclligan a carbon copy. (Stage is darkened.) 74 1636. ..CADUCEUS. ..1936 Scene III. Neiv Characters Father: Charles Madamas Scene: Airport near Springfield Mother : Sarah Arslan Scene : Airport near Springfield Child: Marion Ernsting Time: June, 1946 Father : It seems as if we had walked for miles. We’ll never get to the picnic grounds. Can’t we stop here and rest? You’re tired, aren’t you, dear? {Looks at child with menacing glare.) Child : Yes, Daddy, just too awfully tired to go any further. (Pointing to William Pynchon.) Oh, Mother, look at that funny man over there. His clothes are so queer! Who is he? Father : (Pompously.) My good man, are you a stranger in these parts? William Pynchon: Well, scarcely a stranger, for I founded this city over three hundred years ago. My name is William Pynchon, and I have come back to see how everything is going. Just now I am especially interested in the Commerce graduates of 1936. Can you help me out? Father : You could not have come to a better source of information I was a member of that class and so was my wife—Sarah Arslan, she was in the old days. And this is little Sarah—a most remarkable child, if I do say so. We’ve come on a picnic and have brought along our field glasses so we can get a wider view. William Pynchon: Field glasses! Those arc something new since my day. May I see them? 1 ana quite curious about them. (Takes field glasses and looks toward aviation field.) My, but I can see for miles and miles. I wonder what that strange machine is, surrounded by people. Perhaps you can tell me, Sir. Father : {Takes the glasses.) Why, that is the new airport, owned and equipped by Chris Eliopoulos. There’s a plane there now, ready to take off. William Pynchon: An airport and a plane—something else new. (To Class Historian.) Make a note of that. Father : (Looking at Class Historian:) Why, I recognize this young lady now. It’s Mary Haley, our class historian. Oh, Mary, when you write your book about us, be sure to put me into it. (Turning to William Pynchon.) Airplanes are our most modern method of travel, and airports are just like seaports—places of departure. William Pynchon: Perhaps, Madam, you would like to look through the glasses (Sarah takes glasses.) Mother : I see a stunning-looking girl, all dressed up in a nifty uniform. She looks like an airplane hostess. That’s just what she is, and I declare if it isn’t Peggy Lynch, who graduated with us. There are two other girls in uniform right near her. They look like Pauline Soja and Dot Johnson. Look, Charles! Father : Maybe I will see somebody I know. There are two fellows in pilots’ uniforms who look very familiar, somehow. Upon my word, Sarah, who do you think they are? Robert Gould and Robert Bara. How this brings back the old days! Now, I can see a nurse with her patient. It’s Ursula Condron, and those other nurses with whom she is talking arc Rita Cook and Dottie McKillop. They always said they wanted to become nurses. Remember? William Pynchon : If you’ll pardon me, may I take those extra glasses you have under your arm? Had you forgotten about them? Father : Excuse me, excuse me! The cares of family life are making me forgetful. William Pynchon: Who arc all those important-looking men, do you know? Father : They must be politicians. Even at this distance I could not mistake Burt Johnson’s crop of red hair. And with him are Elliot Wolk, Elbert Hood, and A1 Clauson. I’ll bet they are on their way to the annual convention. Local boys make good, eh? 75 1636 ...CADUCEUS... 19 3 6 Mother : (Hands her the glasses.) You may, buc you won’t know anybody. Child: (Wistfully.) I do wish I could see, Mother. Child: Oh, but I do know somebody. I see Mr. Philip Hart, who owns the grocery where I get my candy, and with him is Mr. Woodrow Cummings, who sold you the nice new car you bought, Daddy. He’s looking the airplane all over. Maybe he is going to sell airplanes, too. (To Mother.) You can take them now, Mother. I’m going to look for four-leaf clovers. (Exit.) Father: Do you know, Sarah, I think I sec someone else 1 know. Sure, they’re a bunch of musicians. Let’s see. There’s Edna Woods, Edward Lussier, Johnnie Rcnkiewicz, and Elinor Kellcher. They used to play in our school orchestra. Mother : I’ll bet they’re on a concert tour. This is getting good. I wonder if any more of our classmates are there. (Looks through glasses eagerly.) Oh, Charles, will you look at our prize athletes! By their sweaters they seem to be Olympic members. There’s Stephic Klak, Filamcna Janiszewski, Lea Valade, Charlotte Twitchell, and Jeanette Rozman. Oh, my goodness, this is more fun than we’ve had in years, and all for nothing! Father: 1 should say so! There’s a boys’ team, too, Sarah Johnnie Pskowski, Tommy Depalo, Francis Spafford, Mike Lagunowich, and Dick Boyer. Mother : (To William Pynchon.) We really are a remarkable class, Mr. Pynchon. One of our members, Rita Lussier, is a prima donna. I saw in the paper that she and Larry Gcrmally are going to play opposite each other in the movies. The script of their play was written by Grace Wilson, and Edwina Partcnhcimer composed the music. I think the name of it is “Going Up on the One-Way Down Stair’’. It’s a tragedy, very sad. You must stay around here long enough to see it. Father: There they are, over near the plane, just ready to get in. They’re sur- rounded by a crowd of reporters. I even know some of them. For, if 1 am not mistaken, I see among them Ruthic Rubinow, Peter Mancuso, Rita Spano, and William Crombie. William Pynchon: (Looking again through glasses.) Although I was never one to pay much attention to the feminine sex, I can’t help noticing there are some very lovely girls over there. Now, 1 wonder who they may be. Mother : I think, Charles, you had better give me the glasses. (Takes them.) They certainly are beautifully-dressed creatures, and terribly stunning. I hear there is to be a wonderful style show at Feeding Hills, and I think they must be models going there. Now, if they would only turn around so I could see their faces! It’s just as I thought— Peggy Mayotte, Olga Anderson, Phyllis O’Brien, and Alice Serra. Oh, Charles, take the glasses again, and see if you don’t see John Gaffney and Betty Foster hiding behind that wing? Father : That’s just who it is. I bet they are going to elope. Do you remember when they were always fighting? Well, anyway, they say true love never runs smoothly. I never noticed that newsstand before. It must be pretty successful, too, for there are four people working there. They look like Jacob Fagin, Arnold Mandell, Norman Mirkin, and Davey Cohen. I can just imagine their saying : “Oi, oi, it doesn’t pay.” Mother: Stop trying to be funny, and tell me who the girls arc just getting out of the plane which has just landed. Father : The leader is Jerry Jefferson, and the others seem to be Margie Andrews, Laura Paquette, Mildred Winquist, Mary Shahum, Helen Garvey, and Doris Brace- bridge. It seems to me that I heard they had organized a sort of dance unit and were taking part in a lot of the big shows. They always were a swell bunch of kids. There’s Wally Scott, calling that policeman behind the hangar. Wonder what he wants. He seems to pretend he doesn’t know the cop. I know, he’s a “G man looking for some- one! The cop is John Gamilcs. Can you imagine him giving a pretty gal a ticket? 76 1636. ..CADUCEUS. ..1936 William Pynchon : I wonder what those men with the transit and tape lines are doing? Father : They’re surveying. It’s a new firm of civil engineers, Hogan, Gibbons, and Priscoli. (Enter Child.) Child: Mother, I’m hungry. I want a sandwich. They’re selling some over at the lunchroom I spelled out the name over the door, and it said P-e-t-e-r-s-o-n. What’s that? Mother : Peterson. Why, that must be Ken Peterson. Child : But that wasn’t all. It said E-t-h-i-c-r and C-a-r-r-i-g-g. Mother: Ethicr and Carigg. Well, if those boys are running a lunchroom, it will be wonderful if they have anything left to sell to customers. Here’s a dime for a sand- wich. (Exit Child.) Father : I heard about that lunchroom. Lloyd Balderston, Ernest Butler, and Alex Geller tole me they ate there regularly whenever they weren’t too hungry. You know they are travelling salesmen, and Lloyd Balderston is painting pictures in his spare time. Mother . I did hear that from “Babe” Daniels. You know, she, Dot Chipman, Edythe Bardach, and Dolores Alvord arc show girls in New York. But, Mr. Pynchon, you must be getting tired of hearing all this nonsense. William Pynchon : Not at all. But what has become of your more serious-minded members? Mother : Miriam Blitz is secretary at the League of Nations; Maurine Potter is teaching right at our own school; and Gertie Pomerantz has become a lawyer. Do you remember how she always wanted the last word in arguments? Father : Do 1! I always steered clear of her. I wanted it myself! She ought to make a good lawyer. She is looking after the business affairs of that new tea-room on Boston Road the one owned by Lena Cerronc and Jelsominc Ccllilli. They have the cutest waitresses—Dorainc Charest, Mary Cleary, Evelyn Hammond, and Myrtle Handysidc. Lena says they are making barrels of money. Mother : I’m tired of looking through the glasses. I feel so sad, too, for I just saw Lorraine Fontaine and Rita Rcmy saying such a tearful farewell to their husbands. I’m all discouraged. But I am sure I sec a familiar figure coming this way. (Enter Vincent Abrahamson.) Vincent Abrahamson: Can you tell me where the airport is? Why, it’s Charles Madamas and Sarah Arslan! I have been wandering about looking for the airport, for I have to take a plane for the big rodeo in Chicago. Charles Madamas: Are you going to do your rope act there? Vincent Abrahamson: Yes, I have a year’s booking. I have improved it a lot since the old Commerce days. Perhaps you would like to see it. Charles Madamas: Nothing better. It will be something else new for Mr- Pynchon to see. (Rope Act) William Pynchon: It’s all been very wonderful. Such a change and such im- provement since the days of your freshman year! I wish I might sec that same group of freshmen once more. Class Historian: Nothing is too hard for us to do. I’ll just turn right back in my notebook and read off their names. (As she reads the names, the chorus re-appears for final song and dance.) 77 1636 ...CADUCEUS... 1936 Retool Gossip, ebenteentt) Century Master Bure Johnson was today set to chopping two cords of wood for twice interrupting and contradicting the worthy Master Calhoun. Said Master Charles Madamas to his reflection in the old swimming hole : “Every- one seems queer except me and thee, and sometimes even thou art a little queer.” Master Elliot Wolk is on the morrow to be awarded a volume of the works of Aristotle for the fineness of his thesis on that sage’s philosophy. Because of his effort to escape the classroom by crawling beneath the desks, Master Richard Boyer is to remain within the schoolhouse during the recess period for the two ensuing weeks. The Governor, on his approaching visit, is to be entertained by selections rendered on the harpsichord by Mistress Miriam Blitz. It was noted that Mistress Norma Klein was excluded from the quilting party given by Mistress Margaret Flink, because of her attending Sunday services with mullein leaves rubbed conspicuously on her cheeks. {Etoigs from jfamtly ®ree$, tKtoentietl) Century Mrs. John Potter Stockton of Burlington, Vermont, formerly Miss Betty Holder of Springfield, and a graduate of the High School of Commerce, January 1930, is a direct descendant of William Pynchon’s brother who in 1635 led the colonists over the Bay Path to Springfield. Mr. Stockton is a nephew of Mrs. Elizabeth Ullery, teacher of English in Room 219. Mrs. Ullery’s ancestor, John Bliss, came to Springfield from Hartford in 1637. In 1646, his brother married Catherine, daughter of Deacon Samuel Chapin. Another of her ancestors, Launcelot Granger, was in King Philip’s War. Lieutenant Cooper, con- nected with Mrs. Ullery’s family by marriage, was commander of the militia at Springfield and was killed by Indians in 1675. Miss Hazel Miller of Room 320 is tenth in direct descent from Deacon Samuel Chapin. 78 1636. ..CADVCEUS. .. 19 3 6 Gaffney !� (rana at I’lay Mentor Class ong Our dear high school days are over; we must pare. Commerce High has always been close to each heart; Commerce High School, you have taught us always to be fair; We have tried to follow all your rules with care. Oh, we love our dear old favorite, Commerce High. When we leave you, we’ll regret it with a sigh. We will long remember the hours we’ve spent with you. Now the time has come for ’36 to say “Adieu”. Words by Elizabeth Frey Music by Edwin a Partenheimer 79 1636. ..CADUCEUS. ..1936 Jfloobltgljts Fortunate in having its own generating plant, the High School of Commerce supplied emergency lighting to Classical High School during the days the city electric lights were eclipsed. Flood-waters of the Connecticut did not reach “Commerce”, but we had a steady stream of refugees, Red Cross and WPA workers, National Guardsmen, and volunteer helpers. Our oldest refugee citizen is said to have been a blind man ninety-seven years of age. The youngest were two babies, born in the building the first night it was occupied by our unexpected visitors. The Boys’ Patrol under Mr. McKerlcy and Captain Scott did noble duty for three days and a night—sweeping floors, storing blankets, arranging cots, guarding stair- ways, caring for youngsters, taking charge of medicines, and helping reunite separated families. Some of the boys did cheerfully and well the kind of dirty work that always has to be done, but does not receive the reward of publicity. With this in mind, we add to the honor list of flood-relief workers the following: Robert Bara, Bernard Belleville, Lloyd Balderston, John Carrigg, William Crombie, Arthur Debour, Roy Ekengren, Richard Handel, Stanley Kogut, Richard Scott, and John Tanner. During the emergency period, many of the rooms were used, but they were not referred to by their home room numbers; instead they were called : National Guard Headquarters.......................... 126 WPA Recreation Room.................................. 105 Board of Health...................................... 110 Nursery.............................................. 103 Clinic............................................... Ill Barber Shop.......................................... 104 Children’s Games..................................... 106 Reading Room......................................... 107 Game Room............................................ 108 Lost and Found....................................... 123 Infirmary......................................113 and 10 We wish that some of the refugees had been more appreciative of their place of shelter and had left it in better condition. The janitors, however, with sixteen gallons of Sylpho-Nathol, untold quantities of soap and water, Lysol, and ammonia, and several days’ use of “elbow-grease”, did a thorough job of cleaning. Mr. Lewis Jackson and his assistants have our heartfelt thanks for their wonderful work. 8o 1636 ...CADUCEUS. 1936 tonor Boll JliriamJorothijlMib 3Da rid Cohea 3unc Xouisc Brinblcjj Jrank 6oriw nlBronlcg $ arl Albert Clauwn Sglviafstlifrliaipaijicn IflizabfthlENaTbster PBHHH TilamcnaJanis ujski J oKn iW (Baflncu, A - | J •a' � J S. 3 Atella Jkaplita (bcrtruoeMjmfxantz TllaurinclEslellcjflottcr JKuthJcanettcJmbinow Charlotte UrcaeTttiitcKcll 81 1636 ...CADVCEVS... 1936 Hast 3$tU anb Testament (condensed) We, the Class of June 1936, of the High School of Commerce, City of Springfield, County of Hampden, and Commonwealth of Massachusetts, being in full possession of our faculties, do now record our last will and testament. It is our purpose to dispose of our various chattels that each may go to the most deserving heir. 1. To Mr. S. O. Smith goes our sincere gratitude for his friendly counsel and impartiality. 2. To our advisers, Mrs. Davis, Miss Briggs, and Mr. Walker, we give our most heartfelt thanks for their friendship and guidance. 3. John Gaffney bequeaths this can of Flit to the next XIIA Class President, so that he may exterminate all those insects who impede the progress of class meetings. 4. To Mr. Chatto we leave this wheelbarrow, to assist him in getting about with his briefcase and English papers. 5. Wallace Scott bestows his book of detention passes upon the next Captain of the Boys’ Patrol, to be doled out to the officers as well as to the students. 6. To Mr. Masters we present this Kiddie-Kar, so that he may travel to and from the lockers in complete comfort. 7. Burt Johnson presents to Miss Anna Danforth a dime to buy an ice-cream soda, so that she may recuperate from having had him for three semesters. 8. Norman Hare leaves this spare collar-bone to Chief Myers, to give to anyone who goes out for football practice. 9. Edwina Partenheimer presents this book of lessons to Dot Ryland, so that some day she may learn to play the ’cello. 10. To Mr. Jones we leave this pillow; we know he will not consider it super- fluous, especially if used in future Donkey Basketball games. 11. Elliott Wolk leaves this sponge to June Baxter, to help her absorb some of his knowledge of psychology. 12. Ruth Rubinow gives this bottle of Bromo-Scltzcr to the next editor-in-chief, to help her to get out a perfect copy of Commerce. 13. James Hogan leaves this footstool to Bob Zimmerman to tuck under his arm and carry about with him, so that at lunch time he can see what to choose from the lunch counter. 14. Annette Openden leaves a pair of shoe laces to Lilyan Block, so that she will not miss any important appointments in the future. 15. Mildred Shepherd hands on the Sportsmanship Code to Franny Zerwitz, a cheer leader, to carry on the spirit of good sportsmanship at Commerce. 16 Ruth McElwain bequeaths this cash register to John Ford, a member of the Boys’ Patrol, to see that it is safely delivered to the next head cashier of the G. O. 17. To Miss Hunt we donate this piano, that with practice her humor and musical ability will tickle the ivories. 18. To Mr. Smith, our principal, who started with us as freshmen, we leave this cap and gown as a reminder of his freshman days as principal of Commerce. In witness thereof we have hereunto set our hands and seals this twenty-fifth day of May, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and thirty-six.

Classical was the next victim, by 7-6, when Webster’s bid for a home run was cut off at the plate by a lightning relay from Kelliher to Zanolli to Jones. Inability to hit in the pinches resulted in the first Crimson defeat at the hands of Trade. Commerce maintained the lead until the eighth inning, when Trade pushed over the winning tally after three successive hits and an error. The Crimson losing streak continued with defeats suffered at the hands of Tech, Cathedral, Windsor Locks, and Turners Falls, in that order. Poor fielding, which was largely responsible for the many losses, was climaxed in the Turners Falls game when the Crimson erred twelve times. Trade, who defeated Commerce in the first game of the losing streak, conquered the Crimson again, although each team secured 12 bingles. A vastly improved Crimson team, led by Zanolli and Bill Bremner, returned to the win column with a 3-0 victory over Classical. Displaying masterful control at all times, Herb Hollister limited Classical to two scratch singles in a game played in the record time of 1 hour and 40 minutes. In a pitcher’s battle between Wojton of Commerce and Kominski of Amherst, the Crimson shaded Amherst 2-1 in 14 innings. Wojton fanned 23 and limited Amherst to 5 hits, while Commerce could garner only 7 bingles ofi Kominski, who set down 14 Crimson players by the strike-out route. Commerce defeated Windsor Locks 12 10 in the 11th inning of a loosely played game for their third consecutive win. Although Windsor Locks outhit the Commerce team by 17 to 16, they committed nine costly errors to four for the Crimson. In a game featured by exceptional hitting, Cathedral won over Commerce 12-10 in an 11 inning struggle. Cathedral blasted three Commerce pitchers for 17 hits, while the Crimson batsmen claimed 13 for their total. The last game of the season resulted in a Tech victory by 4 2. The Crimson played good baseball, and gave a highly-favored Tech team many anxious moments. Although playing on a poor team, Joe Zanolli, Commerce captain, was chosen unanimously on the All-City teams and was mentioned for All-Western Massachusetts. Joe covered a great deal of territory, made many miraculous stops, and was well up among the hitters.

The Commerce soccer squad has shown that “they have what it takes”. With two tics and ten consecutive wins to their credit, they not only retained the inter-school champion- ship but also acquired the mythical Western Massachusetts soccer crown. The season started in a dull and uninteresting manner. Monson, the first team on the schedule, found the Crimson’s forward wall weak, and taking advantage of this managed an unearned tic. Classical likewise took advantage of the apparent lack of coordination within the Commerce ranks and eked out a tie. Desperate and resolved to do or die, the soccerites came into the Ludlow game fighting hard. It seemed as if they were destined to die, however. Ludlow immediately took the lead with two goals, and at the half way mirk the Crimson’s chances could easily have been sold for two cents. In the third quarter the Raider’s fighting spirit seemed to be flooding back once more. Joe Zanolli countered twice in quick suc- cession, and Tommy DePalo won the game with the third one. Heartened by this unexpected victory, Commerce advanced upon Trade and easily took the Beaver into camp with a 3-1 decision. Tech, the arch-rival from Elliot street, was the next victim of an inspired Crimson soccer team. Here again the playing was close, and friendly rivalry was at a high pitch. Tech scored twice before the bewildered Commerce team woke up. And then, to the astonishment of all, the Raiders started an uninterrupted comeback battle. First Zanolli and then DePalo broke through the Tiger defense for counters. In the last minute of the overtime period, Tommy DePalo came through with a splendid free kick that completely eluded the Orange and Black’s goal tender and won the game for Com- merce by a 3-2 score. Cathedral, the final game in the first round, was an easy victory for Commerce. Traveling to Ludlow for the seventh game of the season, Commerce won the distinction of being the first team in the past seven years to defeat Ludlow on their home field. “Foggy” Williams, goal tender, and Joe Zanolli, Commerce scoring ace, were the outstanding Crimson players. Zanolli scored all four goals to win the game 4-2 for Commerce. The next three games, with Classical, Trade, and Monson respectively, were all easy victories. The Commerce boys, led by Zanolli, went on a scoring rampage which brought home the bacon every time. Coming into the eleventh game of the season with eight victories and two tics behind them, it seemed as if the Raiders were due for a loss. Tech was also of the same mind and immediately registered the first goal of the game. Although Commerce played hard for the remainder of the first half, they failed to score. Joe Zanolli came through with a beautiful kick in the third quarter, making a tie. With both teams doing their utmost to win, the game proceeded into the overtime periods with neither team holding any advantage. In the last thirty seconds of play, however, Zanolli again found the mark and crashed through the goal that won the game and clinched the city championship. Commerce wound up the season by soundly trimming a weak Cathedral team. “A team that will not be beaten cannot be beaten.”—Hal Jones. 126 1 636.. .CADUCEUS... 1936 Third Roir.

The Crimson may excel in soccer and basketball but certainly the opposite is true when it comes to football. During the past season the Raiders won one game, tied another, and lost five. The Commercites opened their disastrous season by tying a weak and inexperienced Amherst team on the College-Towners’ home field. Going from bad to worse, the Crimson lost the next three games. West Springfield, a new opponent on the Commerce football schedule, managed to squeeze through with a 6-0 decision. The Turners Falls Indians came along and scalped the Raiders to the tune of 21-0. And Classical wound up this scoring spree with an 18-0 advantage. Still fighting, despite the severe setbacks which they had received, the Commerce eleven advanced upon Trade and took the Beaver into camp with a 19-14 score. The brilliant passing combination of Kogut to Jenkins and the 68-yard run by Partridge made this game one of the most interesting games of the year. The sixth game of the season found the Tech Tigers sleeping, and Commerce, taking advantage of this, held them to a 13-6 lead. Again the Crimson’s outstanding passing attack accounted for their lone touchdown. Cathedral, the last opponent on the schedule, tricked the Raiders and won the game in the final minute of play. A brilliantly executed pass, Peipul to Balicki, eluded the intercepting hands of a Crimson player and lost the game for Commerce. John Kellihcr, because of his steady, dependable playing, was a unanimous choice for the end position on the mythical all-city interscholastic football team. James Loyd, William Jenkins, and Walter Kehoe were also mentioned on some one of the many all-city selections. (golf, 1935 Mr. Clarence I.

Not since 1925, when they won twelve games and lost but two, has Commerce had such able representation in the hoop sport. They were supreme over their public high school opponents, winning all six games, but lost the city title to Cathedral. The schedule opened with three pre-season games, Amherst, Easthampton, and Holyoke, respectively. Amherst fell swiftly by the wayside in a one-sided 46-18 en- counter. Easthampton, likewise, failed to create much of a flurry when it was taken for a 34 11 loss. Both games were marked by poor playing and careless passing. Holyoke, with four victories to its credit and championship aspirations, came to Commerce for the third game of the season. But the Raiders failed to be awed by Holyoke’s impressive reputation, and, although it was a hard struggle, succeeded in quenching the Paper Towners’ hopes with a 38 33 set-back. Joe Zanolli was the sparkplug in the Commerce offense, and Grenert was outstanding for the visitors. Advancing upon Cathedral in the first interschool contest of the year, Commerce found itself without the services of Stanley Kogut, star defense man, who had chipped a vertebra in the Holyoke game. Despite this handicap the Crimson tried desperately to break through the superb defense displayed by the Cathedral team. The game ended, as had been expected, in a 21 17 defeat for Commerce. The game was characterized by exceedingly rough play, which gave the Raiders an opportunity to pick up nine points on foul shots. The following game found West Springfield collecting its sixth straight victory at the expense of Commerce. The only thing that can be said for this game is that it was the best display of how not to play basketball that has ever been given at the local gym. West Springfield shot everywhere except at the basket, and Commerce forgot completely that it was only one basketball team, and tried to play like five. Being defeated by the West Siders woke the Raiders to the fact that team work is essential to good basketball. Meeting Classical at the Commerce gym., the Raiders turned in the best performance of the year. Precise in passing, accurate in shooting, the Crimson, with the help of Stanley Kogut, chalked up 49 points. Unable to stay at top form, the Raiders advanced upon progressive degrees of staleness. In the Trade game, the Beavers gave Commerce the scare of the season when they scored eight points in the last forty seconds of play to pull up within two points of the Raiders. In this game Commerce seemed to be slowly going to pieces. Never at any time did it flash the same form it showed in the Classical game. Turners Falls and Tech were easy victims for the Crimson quintet. Both games were drab and colorless affairs. Apparently reaching a climax in staleness, the Raiders were so bewildered by the dazzling offense of the Cathedral team that they were forced to accent a 32 16 set back. Stanley Kogut was the only real opposition in the way of tne stampeding Cathedralites. This second defeat at the hands of the Purple squelched our hopes for city honors. Classical, minus its star offense man, Kelly, proved as humble in the return game as it had in the first one. With the Crimson’s substitutes bearing most of the burden, Commerce won 40-23. The final game with Trade was one of the most exciting contests of the year. The lead see-sawed back and forth, with the teams deadlocked most of the time. In the final moments of the overtime period, Commerce, through the splendid work of Kogut and Zanolli, gained a three-point advantage which they succeeded in holding. Rounding out into excellent form as the season drew to a close, the Crimson handily won the last two games on the schedule. This assured them of second place in the inter-school league, second only to the undefeated Cathedral squad. no [636. ..CADUCEUS... 13 96 Hack Row, Isfl Io High!: Joseph lturdslry. Thoma Klli� .

Tech won the title. The Crimson had a veteran first team except for the goalie, but lost three of the members through graduation. The Crimson opened its schedule with a 2-0 victory over Classical. It was a very impressive debut into the new season. Captain Joe Boyer and Dick Manning con- tinued the smooth combination that they used last year. The game with Trade was not so easy to win, but the Crimson finally showed its superiority by winning 2 1 in an overtime game. Trade scored in nine minutes of the first period, but Commerce came back to score from the face-off in the second period. Chuck Partridge scored on a pass from Boyer in the overtime period. This game was the best exhibition of hockey in the season up to that time. Commerce players met their first disaster when Tech trimmed them 2-0. As usual, these two teams furnished one of the best battles of the season. In this game, also, the first major penalty was handed out to Powell and Partridge for misconduct. When they left the ice, they continued to argue with Referee Davenport, who immediately put them out for the rest of the game. It was during this time that Tech scored its second goal. For the next game, the Commerce team traveled to Brattleboro, Vermont, to play Brattleboro High. The rink was smaller than the Arena rink, and the referee paid no attention to the blue lines. Commerce was slightly handicapped by using the blue lines while Brattleboro did not. The Vermonters finally topped Commerce 3-2. Commerce next traveled to Wilbraham, where they swamped Wilbraham Academy il-2. Captain Dick Manning starred with ten points. The Crimson team’s smooth combinations couldn’t be stopped by Wilbraham. Manning got five goals and five assists. Manning again starred in the game when Commerce trounced Cathedral 7-1. He scored five goals and got one assist. This game, coupled with Trade’s defeat at the hands of Tech, resulted in a triple tie for first place : Commerce, Tech, and Classical. This was the last game for three regulars. Manning, Partridge, and Hill were lost for the rest of the season because of graduation. When Commerce met Classical for the second time, they were both minus some valuable veterans, but Joe Boyer took over the attacking burdens for the Crimson. He put Commerce in the lead in the second period. Fran Buckley of Classical, however, tied it up just after the beginning of the last period. One minute later Bardsley scored on a pass from Boyer. This was the last game for Powell, star defense man. Although Commerce had only nine men, they flashed a scoring power that downed Trade 2-0. Trade was also handicapped by the absence of two stars. Again, the ever- plugging Joe Boyer led the Crimson to victory by scoring both goals. Trade threatened several times, but Goalie Peterson came through with timely saves. The Crimson avenged its 3-2 defeat of a month before, when they trimmed the Brattleboro High team 2-0. Bardsley scored in the first period and Boyer in the third. Brattleboro turned on the heat in the third period, but could not score. This was the Crimson’s last chance to practise before the big Tech game. Commerce lost a heartbreaking 3-2 decision when they played Tech. The last period, the first team played without any rest. It was the best exhibition of hockey seen during the season. They were behind 3 0 when they started the third period. But Boyer tallied first, and then Zieminski scored on a pass from Dionne. Tech was given a penalty shot because Goalie Peterson held the puck too long. The usual procedure is to have a penalty face-off. The shot, however, sailed over the net by four feet. In the last game of the season, which was a postponed game, Cathedral turned in a 2 1 surprise win over the Crimson. Joe Boyer scored at the beginning of the second period, but Kelleher tied it up a few minutes later. La Frcnicre broke the tie in the last period when he broke loose and scored over Goalie Peterson’s body. 1636. ..CADUCEUS... 19 3 6 (StrlsT (Sames anb itterrie Sports GIRLS’ ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION First Semester Mildred Bell Christine Clarkin Agnes Johnson Second Semester Christine Clarkin Helen Barbahowski June Baxter Elinor Stanford Pauline Soja Filamena Janiszewski Charlotte Twitchei.l Stella Kaplita OFFICERS President Vice-President Treasurer ACTIVITIES At the beginning of each semester freshmen girls arc initiated. This initiation takes part during the day, and is followed by a party at night. Toward the end of the semester, there is the awarding of letters and pins earned by participating in sports and by accumulating points for numerals. (30 points equal 1 numeral, and 3 numerals equal 1 C. Pins are awarded to girls who earn five letters, three of them in different sports.) THE G. A. A. PIN The G. A. A. pin is a symbol of the highest honor obtainable in girls’ sports. A pin is awarded to girls who earn five letters, three of them in different sports. Every year several girls succeed in earning a pin. This year eight girls have achieved this high athletic honor : Stephanie Klak Jeanette Rozman Lea Vai.ade 1933 Spring Cournamentg One of the interesting features of the girls' athletic program is that of the annual spring tournaments. These tournaments enable the girls to try for individual athletic honors, and at the same time create much interest among the rest of the students.

Every spring, more girls come out to try for a position on the baseball team, than come out for any other sport. The juniors, or the June 1936 Class, succeeded in having the winning team. Not only were they the interclass champions but also the interschool champions, beating both Classical and Tech.
