O beautiful for pilgrim feet Whose stem impassioned stress A thoroughfare for freedom beat Across the wilderness. America! America! God mend thine ev’ry flaw. Confirm thy soul in self-control, Thy liberty in law. the Beautiful O beautiful for heroes proved In liberating strife. Who more than self their country loved. And mercy more than life. America!

America! America! God shed His grace on thee. And crown thy good with brotherhood From sea to shining sea. —Katharine Lee Bales Deep River Deep river, my home is over Jordan, Deep river, Lord, I want to cross over into camp-ground. Oh. don’t you want to go to that gospel feast. That promised land where all is peace? Oh, deep river. Lord, I want to cross over into camp-ground. Mists I mourn. Far skies they cover Those mists of dream ascending That o’er mute plains unending Hover. Ravens on high croak so hateful On sable pinions wringing Their voice o’er moorlands ringing Fateful. Sharp winds their leaves from trees are tearing. Wounds dealing no sun stanches Sad they their naked branches Baring. Cold am I. and so lovely O'er chill grey skies unnoting A dead sigh’s echo floating Onlyl Sadly it calls: ”0 come to me! The vale in night is shrouded. Unloved one, sorrow clouded. Come to me, Cornel Come I My country, ’tis of thee, Sweet land of liberty, Of thee I sing I Land where my fathers died. Land of the Pilgrims' pride, From every mountain side, Let freedom ring I My native country, thee. Land of the noble free, Thy name I lovcl I love thy rocks and rills. Thy woods and templed hills; My heart with rapture thrills. Like that above! America Let music swell the breeze And ring from all the trees Sweet freedom’8 song I Let mortal tongues awake, Let all that breathe partake, Let rocks their silence break. The sound prolong. Our fathers' Godl to Thee, Author of liberty. To Thee we sing! Long may our land be bright, With freedom's holy light; Protect us by Thy might. Great God, our King! —Samuel F. Smith The High School of Commerce Springfield, Massachusetts 1937 Dear Readers: We, the January and June Classes of 1937, have chosen as the theme of our year book, Business, and accordingly have dedicated it to the Directors of the biggest business undertaking of our school, the General Organization. We could not have selected a more appropriate theme than this, for the High School of Commerce was organized to teach commercial subjects. The Caduceus, which was the staff of Mercury, the God of Commerce, is the symbol of the High School of Commerce. The motto of the school also is Industry and Integrity.” To carry out this theme we have likened our class and school to a corporation in which each person or group has a figurative title. These titles are similar to those used by real corporations as far as possible. Thus, we, the January and June Classes of 1937 say: To Business!” Very truly yours, THE CLASSES OF JANUARY AND JUNE BOARD OF EDITORS January Class Lillian James Paul Chmiel Rita Rubin Erma Zonin' George Tsacnaris Theodore Zieminski Christine Clarkin Stanley Cook M r.

Jackson Guv D. Miller Russell L. Williams Budget Director Auditor Treasurer Mr. Belding F. Jackson, budget director and vice-chairman of the General Organization Board, entered the High School of Commerce in 1926. Previous to teaching English here, Mr. Jackson taught at the Belehertown High School and at Massachusetts State College. He was graduated from Massachusetts State College, and earned his master's degree at Middleburv College. Mr. Guy I). Miller, auditor of General Organization accounts since its origin, and present director of the Auditing Stall, which handles all G. O. records and accounts, entered the High School of Commerce in 1916 from the Short- ridge High School in Indianapolis. He is a graduate of Ohio University and of the Harvard University School of Education. Mr. Russell L. Williams, treasurer of the General Organization for the last five years, has charge of collection and payment of accounts. He taught in Revere and Haverhill, Massachusetts, High Schools before coming in the fall of 1925 to the High School of Commerce, where he has taught bookkeeping ever since. He attended the Bryant and Stratton Business College, and received his master’s degree from Boston University. CADUCEUS ::H:s:s-r n G. O. AUDITING STAFF Fifth Row. Left to Right: Alfred Albano.

THE GENERAL ORGANIZATION The General Organization of the High School of Commerce was formed in 1931 under the guiding hand of Mr. Jerome Burtt, then principal. As cited in the original constitution, the purpose of the General Organiza- tion is to provide for its members a maximum of the activities of the school at the minimum expense. Membership in the G. O. includes admission to all home athletic contests, athletic dues, Commerce, class dues, refreshments at socials, reduction in price of Caduceus, reduced rental fee of senior caps and gowns, and admission to certain performances of the musical organizations, and to the G. O. Pop. Any regularly enrolled student in the High School of Commerce may become a member of the General Organization, while failure to pay all dues of any preceding year does not prevent a student from joining at the start of a new year and enjoying privileges of membership. Some pupils, however, pay class dues instead, amounting to $4.50 at the end of the senior year, and are eligible for regular class activities only. 6 CADUCEUS G. O. HOME ROOM AGENTS Fifth Row.

O. dues of $3.50 a semester are collected in the home room by an agent appointed by the home room teacher. Home room agents promptly pay their collections to the Collector of Dues. The Collector of Dues pays all the money to the G. O. Treasurer for deposit and disbursement. In 1931, the first year of the organization’s existence, the position of G. O. Treasurer was held by Mr. Warren G. Potter, bookkeeping teacher, and from 1932 on by Mr. Russell L. Williams, also a bookkeeping teacher. Non-transferable tickets are issued under the direction of the Principal and the Treasurer of the Governing Board. They are collected at each game or other activity, and redistributed to the home rooms under the supervision of the Collector of Dues. Lost tickets are replaced by the Collector of Dues for a charge of ten cents. A budget for each organization in the G. O. is adopted by the Governing Board at an early fall meeting. Each organization is required to keep within this budget, unless allowed extra expenditures by a vote of the Governing Board. Mr. Burtt certainly did a wonderful job in beginning the organization, and Mr. Smith has done an equally good service in its continuance. — Mildred Vaughn CADUCEUS PRESIDENT OF THE HIGH SCHOOL OF COMMERCE, INC.

The scene opens on the final meeting of the stockholders of the ('lass of January, 1937, Inc. As the scene opens, the president, Mr. Wegiel, speaks. Walter Wegiel: The meeting will please come to order. As this corpor- ation is limited in its charter under the Commonwealth to a duration of three years, we shall hear the reports of the secretaries for that period, so that you may take appropriate action thereon. Ruth Robar: On February 20, 1934, there was a meeting of 320 sub scribers for the purpose of forming a corporation known as the Class of January, 1937, Inc. The meeting was called to order by Joseph Feitelberg, and June Baxter was elected clerk or secretary. The presiding officer announced that the purpose of the corporation was to furnish a commercial education to its members. The officers of the first year were chosen as follows: President: Joseph Feitelberg Vice-President: Alice Leete Secretary: June Baxter Treasurer: Lillian James Member-at-Large: Hilda Northgraves A charter was granted by the Commonwealth through its agent, Mr. Stanley O. Smith, and shares were issued to the subscribers. Miss Phelps was selected as general counsel, and Miss Tourtellotte and Mr. Shipway as assistant counsels, and they constituted the Board of Directors for the entire period of incorporation. Business was rather quiet except for the Freshman Reception. By means of this reception, the advertising department of the Class of 1935 sold the idea of the school to our parents. The feminine stockholders of the corporation were given a rousing welcome to the school on Freshman Initiation Day, other- wise known as the G. A. A. Party. The first social gathering of the corporation was in the form of a social held in the Gym., November 9, 1934. As it was a success, another was held on May 17 of the next year. Losses in the number of stockholders took place as the end of the first semester because certain shares were liquidated on account of non-payment. That is, the required consideration was not paid in the form of scholarship. They did not heed the red ink warning of the quarterly report cards. Respectfully submitted, Rutii Robar, Secretary 35 CAMERA CATCHES CLASS DAY CAPERS A. At left, Tommy Ellis; rixht. Stanley Cook. B. I.ejt to Rinht: Fred Winterle. Walter Wegiel, Frances Prekop.

Since there are no errors or omissions, I declare this report approved. We shall now hear the secretary’s report for the second year. Miss Sacen ti. Virginia Sacenti: On January 8, 1935, the corporation held its second annual meeting. As juniors, the stockholders chose new officers. They were: President: Francis Zerwitz Vice-President: Pauline Cardin Secretary: Doris Cowles Member-at-Large: Thelma Hunter During this year, a merger was formed with the Class of June, 1936, Inc., for the social activity known as the Junior Prom. This was held in the school gymnasium on October 18. The Christmas Assembly was given on December 17, 1935, by the XIA and XIB classes. The members of Homes for the Aged were honored guests. A new plan was inaugurated whereby report cards were issued three times during the semester instead of the usual four times. This concluded the business of the year of 1935 for the Class of January, 1937, Inc. Respectfully submitted, Virginia Sacenti, Secretary Walter Wegiel: You have heard the report as read. Are there any errors or omissions? Bob Ilolt: Mr. President, I believe no mention was made of the dividend issued to G. O. members during the second year. I speak of the G. O. Pop given in June of that year. I move that this be placed on the records of the Class of 1937, Inc. Walter Wegiel: All those in favor of this motion say “Aye”. Everyone (Loudly and together): AYE. Walter Wegiel: The record of the 1935 G. O. Pop shall be placed on the books. If there are no other errors, it shall stand approved. You shall now hear the secretary’s report of the third year of business. Miss Palpini. Cecilia Palpini: The corporation began its third year of business in January. 1936. At the annual election the stockholders chose the following officers to direct the affairs of the company: President: Walter Wegiel Vice-President: Lillian Charter Secretary: Teresa Cavanaugh Members-at-Large: WlLHELMINA WlSSELINK Francis Zerwitz 37 CADUCEUS BUSINESS MEETING —(Continued) Under the direction of these officers and the Board of Directors, again a merger was formed in 1936 with the XIA class, and a combined dance was given as a part of the social activities of the corporation. These social mergers were found to be successful. This dance was the last of its kind for the corporation. During this year the Twin State One-Act Play Contest was held. Three of the five characters of the winning play, The Florist's Shop, were stockholders in our corporation. They were George De Cormier, Francis Zerwitz, and George Tscanaris. And It Rained, the annual operetta, was also presented during the corporation’s third year. Many of the members of the Class of 1937, Inc., were participants in this musical production. Another social activity was the pageant presented by the Hi-Y: King Robert of Sicily. Among the supporting cast were many of our members. During this year the corporation was forced to discontinue its affairs temporarily because of the Hood. Then members of the firm were compelled to take an unexpected but surprisingly welcome vacation of several weeks. None the worse for the disturbance, the corporation resumed its business in the usual manner. Another dividend in the form of G. O. Pop was given to the members early in June. In September, after a two months’ suspension of business, the corpora- tion rapidly resumed its activities. This concludes the business of the third year. Respectfully submitted, Cecilia Palpini, Secretary Bob Holt: I believe that no mention was made of the fact that the Girls’ Patrol was started by three of the members of our class. They were Lillian James, Erma Zonin, and Kathryn Linnehan. Fred Winterle: Mr. President, I put that in the form of a motion. Virginia Sacenti: I second the motion. Walter Wegiel: In favor? Opposed? It is a vote. We have now reached the part where it is necessary for the corporation to be dissolved, as its interests have become diversified and its purpose has been completed. Fred Winterle: I move that a rising vote of thanks be given to our officers and particularly to the directors, Miss Phelps, Miss Tourtellotte, and Mr. Shipway, for their able leadership and guidance. Virginia Sacenti: I second the motion. Walter Wegiel: All in favor signify by rising. (All rise.) Is there any further business to come before the meeting? If not, I must remind you that the life of this corporation is limited by law, and it expires at the end of this meeting. All our debts have been paid, and all our affairs have been adjusted. In June, the authorities will give each member who faithfully paid for his stock by means of scholarship the final dividend, in the form of a diploma. Nothing remains to say but that the chair will entertain a motion to adjourn. Erma Zonin: I move we adjourn indefinitely. Fred Winterle: I second the motion. Walter Wegiel: Meeting is adjourned. 38 CADUCEUS DIVIDENDS THE WILL OF THE JANUARY CLASS OF 1937 Be it remembered that we, the January ('lass of 1937 of the High School of Commerce, the City of Springfield, the County of Hampden, and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, being of sound mind, memory, and judgment, but realizing the shortness and uncertainty of this life, do hereby make, declare, and publish this, our last will and testament, and earnestly desire that these requests be carried out as directed. After the payment of all our just debts, we do give, devise, and bequeath as follows: 1. To Mr. Smith and the faculty of the High School of Commerce, our lasting gratitude for their earnest efforts to make something of us. 2. To Mr. Smith, our principal, one of the best penman in the country, we leave this pencil, that he may continue his good penmanship. 3. To Miss Phelps and Miss Tourtelotte, our class advisers, we leave our heartfelt thanks for their kind assistance and patience in all our class activities. 4. To Bernard Belleville, president of the June Class of 1937, Walter Wegiel leaves this egg beater to whip the class into shape. He’ll probably need it. 5. To the backward pupils of succeeding classes, we leave the clever minds and consequent good marks of some of the most brilliant members of our class. 6. To our janitors, we leave this mop to dry up the tears of the under- graduates who mourn at our departure. 7. To Norma Cadieux we leave Ruth Robar’s place in Mr. Campbell’s heart. 8. To George Ladd, Ethel Richardson leaves this can of 3-in-l oil to help keep his fingers nimble while playing the school piano. 9. Dot Ryland leaves her musical laugh to anyone capable of using it. 10. To Doc Melville, ace decorator of report cards, we leave this bottle of green ink so that it will harmonize with the red he uses, and thus fit in with the coming Christmas season. 11. To Coach “Chief” Myers, Robert Holt, on behalf of the football squad, leaves this package of candy cigarettes to give to his football squad during training season. 12. To Hal Jones, we leave this tape measure to measure his head to see that it doesn’t get any larger because of the continual success of the soccer team. 13. To our beloved Commerce Kitty we leave this catnip mouse as a reward for her long perseverance in the past four years in watching the mouse hole at the bottom of the second page of the Commerce paper. 14. To Miss Fisher we leave this new style of sweater to add to her collection. 15. To Mr. Jackson, Journalism adviser, we leave this nose for news. 16. To Mr. Watkins, our musical director, who is leaving Commerce at the end of the month, we leave this baby grand piano, with the assurance that we’ll never forget him. In testimony thereof, we, the Class of January, 1937, have set our hand and seal this eighth day of December in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and thirty-six, at the High School of Commerce, Springfield, Massachusetts.

In the center of the table is a round crystal. Kathryn and Eva gaze about the room doubtfully. Kathryn speaks.) Kathryn : This looks like the place. Eva: 11 can’t be; no one is here. Kathryn: It’s the right address. Eva: Well, maybe it is. {Enter a medium, dressed in a sleek, black dress, with many jewels. She speaks with a slow, weird voice.) Medium : Ah, you are just in time! {The two students turn in surprise at the sound of the voice.) Kathryn: Surely, we didn’t want to be late for our appointment. Medium: Shall we proceed? Eva: Well, we’re ready as soon as you are. Medium: You want to see your classmates in the future; is it not so? Take these chairs. {Students take chairs.) Kathryn: Yes, that’s what we want to know. I’m interested in knowing what’s going to happen to some of my — Eva : Oh, keep still. Let’s start with the seance, Madam Rajah. Medium: You will please join hands and tell me whom you wish to see first. Kathryn : Anyone, I guess; huh, Eva? Eva: 11’s OK by me. Medium: You will keep as quiet as possible as I go into the trance. {Proceeds to go into trance. Suddenly, in hollow tones, commences to speak.) I see a light in the darkness. It is getting larger and larger. It begins to form into a picture; it is a picture. It gets clearer and clearer. I see a kitchen on a famous ocean liner. Stewards are hurrying to and fro. A chef is giving orders to his assistants. It is Paul Chmiel. The picture fades — blacker — blacker. (Voice keeps on.) I see a bank. People are busily working. The chief accountant is giving orders to three subordinates. He is Herbert Menzel. The three others are Helen Barbahowski, Pauline Cardin, and Thomas Ellis. The bank’s attorneys come in. They go into a room marked Legal Staff. They are Louis Biskup and Walter Kehoe. It is fading — fading. (Short pause) I see water — water — water — Kathryn: There’s no water water here. Something must be the matter with her. Eva: Keep still! She only sees that. Medium: I see a ship on the water. A large ship. It is a Navy battle ship. An officer is standing on the bridge. He is the captain. His face is familiar, very familiar. It is Bortolino Maggi. (Pause). 41 CADUCEUS OUTSIDE OF BUSINESS HOURS 1. Left to Right: Kathryn Linnehan. Gino Bobba. Lillian James.

Suhdi: I come, master. What is it you want? Medium: Answer the questions of these young people. Suhdi: Yes, master. Kathryn: What shall we ask him? Eva: Let’s ask what certain people are doing twenty years from now. Kathryn: Who? Eva: What’s David McCarthy doing at about this time in 1956? Suhdi: He is giving a woman a ticket for speeding. He is a Massachu- setts State Police Sergeant. Kathryn: Well, can you beat that? Who next? Eva: What about Kathryn Linehan? What’s she doing in 1956? Suhdi: She is scolding a student nurse for negligence. She is head nurse in the hospital. Her duties are heavy. There are more and more airplane accidents each day. Kathryn: That’s a good one — airplane accidents. These days it’s autos. Eva: (Sarcastically) Will you kindly keep STILL! Kathryn: Oh, all right. What is Frances Prekop doing? Suhdi: She is having trouble with an old coquette about a dress. It seems that Frances designed the dress too modestly. Kathryn: The customei is always righ t. Eva: What about Lillian James? Suhdi: At this moment she is running a settlement house for neglected children in New York. Kathryn: Say, he knows it all, doesn’t he? Eva: How many times do I have to tell you to keep quiet? What is Eva Natalini doing? Suhdi: She and Evelyn Toro are giving a song-and-dance act at the Fair- view Palace. Kathryn: Shall we ask about Erma Zonin ? Eva : Yes, let’s. Kathryn: Erma wanted to be a bookkeeper. Is she? Suhdi: Erma is working on a monthly report. She is the head of the Girls’ State Reformatory in Delaware. (Gong clangs twice.) I must leave now. My master commands. 43 CADUCEUS ESTIMATED PROFITS —(Continued) Kathryn: I didn’t hear any command. Eva: Are you going to start that again ? Kathryn: All right; all right. Medium: Whom else do you want to see? Kathryn: Stanley Cook? Eva: Of course. Medium: I see an office. It is a large office. There is a desk. At the desk is seated a great finance expert. He is working hard, very hard, doing nothing. Kathryn: Is that Stanley Cook? Medium: Yes, it is Stanley Cook. Another picture is coming; it is a court- room. Five court stenographers are taking notes in half-hour sessions. They are Edward Anderstrom, Lillian Charter, Walter Wegiel, Ethel Richardson — {Pauses.) Kathryn: That’s only four. You said five. Eva: Why don’t you try keeping still! Who is the other one? Medium: — and Doris Gamache. I see a strange country; it is filled with dead and dying. There is a great plague raging through the country. There are few doctors and nurses, for every- one is afraid of catching the plague. I see a large building. It is filled with or- phaned children. They are all Chinese. A care-worn and tired woman moves about wearily, but cheerfully, comforting the young ones. She is an American missionary. Her name is Marjorie — Kathryn: Who do you think her last name is? Eva: I haven’t any idea. I know a lot of Marjories. Maybe it’s — Medium: Marjorie Whispel. Now I see a radio broadcast forming before me. The announcer is telling what is to come. He is Francis Zerwitz. The orchestra leader taps his baton, and the opening number begins. The leader is Kendall Freeman. The star of the pro- gram now appears. She is Ruth Robar. I see two news reporters. They are Teresa Cavanaugh and Gino Bobba. They are interviewing a famous speaker. He is Edward Brady. Eva: What do you suppose happened to some of our great football heroes? Kathryn: We can find out by asking her. Eva: {Addressing medium) What happened to Jimmy Loyd and Stanley Dominick? Kathryn: And Bob Holt and Jimmy Yvon? Medium: A scene forms. A great stadium appears before me. A famous reporter is covering the football game. He is Ted Zieminski, star sports reporter for the New York Times, whose editor-in-chief is now Tommy Dolphin. The game begins. Through the spectacular playing of the four aces, touchdown after touchdown is made. The four aces are Holt, Yvon, Loyd, and Dominick. The picture fades — faster — faster — faster. (Quickly) Five dollars for the seance, please! {The two girls become suddenly alert. Both look at each with lifted eyebrows.) 44 CADUCEUS JANUARY REPORTS {Based on January Class names) It was a quiet afternoon in the office of Graham McCall, chief investigator of the Commerce Law Office. Suddenly he cried, “Luk.Min, look out the window payne. Aren’t those our salesmen?” As he spoke, the door birse open, and in came two men. “No, here we are; we were peeking through the kehoe and heard you mention us. Is there anything you wanted?1’ Graham McCall, chief investigator, exclaimed, ‘‘Oh, so that’s where you’ve been! Smith, report on the case I gave you. There aren’t going to be any lawlers hanging around this office if I can help it.” Smith, his eyes as black as cowles, said, “Well, chief, I was investigating the case of the housewife who berndt her hand while baking biskups. She may be a good cook, but she certainly is no baker. I finally got the right story pfrommer. She got the burns on her hand when she was carlin her hair with the iron. I found out, too, that her husband is a fiedler in an orchestra but he bertly makes a living.” “Smith, I don’t know what to make of you. You don’t know whether you’re cumming or gounng.” Graham McCall, turning to his secretary, asked her how much of the conversation she had taken down and how much work she had dunne. Min was frank and replied that she was at hurwitz end. Graham McCall then turned to his next investigator and asked, “What did you find out about that automobile case?” Jones, the second man, always chmieling, answered, “Chief, I hate to tell you but I was in grave perrault, today. I went to see that Mrs. Brown and 'er son, only I had the wrong directions to their home and I got lost. I asked a man how to get to their place, and he told he to keep driving until I came to the holloway at the bottom of the hill, then to terney right and I couldn’t miss it. Well, I had to go through a mudry puddle to reach the place, but I finally got there. It seems that Mrs. Brown works in a carabetta as a hat check girl and her son is a dark in department store. That’s all I found out, Chief; I’m sorry, but I really didn’t kehr for the case. I’m gunther work on another one, to- morrow.” Graham McCall was becoming very angry and told his men, “It isn’t baccus I don’t like you, but you men had better make improved reports or ellis I’ll have to tell you to find another way to belisle your time away. I know that benoit the surface you men are well-meaning, but I had hoped you’d braica record. But do you men zel anything? No! Nothing at all! Keep that in mind! If you don’t all improve, I willett you all go. Goodby!” He slammed the door. Hadley had he gone, when a knock was heard on the door. Min called, “ Yamin.” In walked a foreign-looking man, the investigator’s old friend, Pierre. Pierre exclaimed, “Oh, did I have to take some bromo selzam this morning! I vant to a party last night, and zat Joe — yvon the first prize for the best costume. Oh, yes, he’s zer witz of ze party, all right! Zen we had some more fun and zan olli boys vant home! Zis morning I am so hoarse I can only whispel. Veil, I must be going. Goodby!” Meanwhile, Min, the secretary, had been martin notes on a piece of paper. She picked up a doiuney cushman and went in the korner to finish her work. Smith and Jones, the two investigators, shuffled out of the room and the office of the Commerce Law Firm was quiet once again.

In the presence of our executives, doubting, but at the same time hoping it will be considered well by our principal and the successive class of XIIA honor students, and at the same time disregarding such worry about our future as it will please our parents to retain, we give, donate, device, dispose, bequeath, and will in the following manner and form: To Miss Dorothy Morrow, Irving Young most willingly bequeaths a set of brake linings, so that she may be able to slow down on her stenography dic- tation and give her classes a break. Lilyan Block leaves her jokes to Mr. A. H. Smith on the installment plan (that is to say, the never-may-he-remember-them-after-once-said-plan) to avoid repetitions. Navseka Zografos, who is just as short as Christine Cooley, leaves her spunk for standing ridicule to that diminutive darling. Rita Berard leaves Fred Carmody her acting ability in our gay comedies. Norma Cadieux reluctantly leaves to any XIIB Stenographer her place in Mr. Campbell’s office and heart — and Ho! what a place. To Mr. Melville go a pair of red socks and tie to match, so that the next class may see as well as hear him going about in our dear old Alma Mater’s corridors. Dorothy Birchard wills her watch to Tony Afflitto to tell him just how many hours he is late for his classes after duty in the cafeteria. It is the custom to leave the president’s gavel to the leader of the next class. Thus, with the power of his sound mind and body, Charles Ward leaves what is left of the gavel to Eileen Kehoe, that very capable young lady of the XIIB class. 77 CADUCEUS DISBURSEMENTS- (Continued) Stanley Kogut leaves to Pete Creanza his ability as a basket-ball player. To Pasquiena Ugolini, Bernard Belleville leaves his pleasing personality so that she may lead her class successfully. Willie Jenkins leaves to Chief Myers a lucky charm to help him get a winning football team next fall. Ruth Marden leaves this box of her pep to Sophie Kvriakos. We, the XIIA Class, do bequeath to Mr. Jackson this hammer, in case his car should fall apart some morning on his way to school from his home in Belchertown. Donald Walters leaves to Mr. McKerley a lasso, so that he may be able to rope in all rule-breakers in the lunchroom. Edith Berg leaves Helen Hedeen her quiet ways and thoughts unseen. Gertrude Geelnard donates her chewed-up pencil stubs to Gwen Harrison. June Meade leaves a pair of toe-dancing slippers to that up-and-coming dancer, Rita Burns. Jessis Decker donates to Chief Myers twenty-five cents toward a dozen eggs for his team, so that they will bring home the bacon. Kendall Freeman leaves his best five years in high school to anyone that wants them to use as references on school life, because of his practical experience. To Miss Roberts, we leave an April shower and a March wind to ruffle her self-control. To Bill English, Alex Thom leaves some of his freckles in exchange for Bill’s height. WE, THE CLASS OF 1937, MASTERS OF ARTS, CONDEMNERS OF THE PAST, PHILOSOPHERS OF THE FUTURE, PROCLAIMERS OF ALL THAT IS RIGHT; GOOD, SOLID THINKERS FOR THE LESS FORTUNATE, AND EVEN NOW GREATLY RENOWNED, AND ABOVE ALL, GENIUSES IN THE COVETED ARTS OF TYPEWRITING AND SHORTHAND, LEADERS IN OUR SOCIAL CENTERS, I)() APPROVE AND RESERVE THE SAME, AND DO PRONOUNCE, DECREE, AND DECLARE FOR THE VALIDITY THEREOF, AND DO FULLY IN THE PRESENT CHAOTIC C ONDITIONS SET OCR HANDS AND SEAL TO THIS FAIR, IUST, AND EQUAL MEANS OF DISTRIBUTING OUR WEALTH. IN THE SAID WILL AND BEFORE THE AFORESAID SAD GRADUATION, HAVING TAKEN THE SAME TO LAW, THUS RE- QUIRING THE PRESENCE OF YOUR JUST SELVES, WE GIVE THIS, OUR LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT, IN THIS CITY OF SPRINGFIELD, UNDER THE SEAL OF OUR SAID OFFICE, ON THIS 28th OF JUNE, IN THE YEAR OF OUR LORD, ONE THOUSAND NINE HUNDRED AND THIRTY-SEVEN.

She: Friends, let your mind wander to future years. The time is 1947! He: I’m so glad to see you. She: You’re the first member of our class that I've met since I left school. Have you seen any of the others? He: No, but I'll give you a chance to see a few of them. I have just com- pleted my invention which enables one to see any section of the world. Come, let me show you. Let’s look into the locker room at Student Paradise College where William Jenkins and his assistant. Stanley Kogut, are teaching boys of today the standards they got from Chief” Myers and ‘ Hal” Jones. SCENE I (Boys lacing shoes, putting on sweaters, standing, crouching, sitting, talking, and laughing. William and Stanley give the boys a pep talk.) Curtain He: How was that? She: Wonderful — so wfcre Willy and Stan whey they were at Commerce. They did outstanding work in football and basketball. Do you remember how popular they were, especially with the girls? He: I’ll admit there’s something about a football player. It was not only the sportsmanship of those boys that made them popular. It was their per- sonalities. However, as we graduated from a business school, we should find a few of our classmates in the business section of New York. Let’s see what we can find. SCENE II (Office, desk, telephones, one secretary ready for dictation. Charles Ward is seated at the desk when another secretary enters.) Secretary: Mr. Bernard Belleville, from th z Globe, sir. Ward: Send him in.............Hello, Benny. Bernard: Hi, Charley. Say, about that reunion, are you going? Charles: Certainly, I'm going. Bernard: Thought you were swamped with business. Ward: All the business in the world can wait. I’m going to the reunion. I suppose you are going, too? Bernard: I suppose I’ll have to go. For the paper, you know. Ward: I know, you never would admit you had a heart. For the paper! (Sarcastically.) Will you wait a minute for me? (He summons a secretary.) Ward: I want you to send letters to the following members of our class in- forming them of a reunion of the class of ’37, High School of Commerce. 1. Raymond Lawson, Treasurer of the Standard Oil Company, New York City. 2. Edith Aker, Make-up Artist for M. G. M. (To Bernard.) You remember her, don’t you? She had enough practice on her own face. 3. Edward Couture, Crooner with Lareau’s Swingsters 4. Mr. Bernard Knightly, Stooge for William Ilambro 5. Victor Celia, School Bus Driver, East Longmeadow, Mass. 83 CADUCEUS ANTICIPATED C H A N G E S — (Continued) 6. Bernice Sloboda, Librarian, Fine Point Library, Springfield 7. Peter Kedas, Stall Artist for the Wright ville Clarion, Wright ville� Kentucky. 8. Mr. Harold Brunette, Dancing Instructor at the Forest Park Social Center. Come on Benny. I hope they all show up at the reunion. Curtain She: Imagine, they are still friends after ten years! He: They were great pals when they were in school. She: It makes you feel good to know that such friendships exist about you. I hope that the reunion will renew other friendships that existed in Commerce when we graduated. He: Do you remember Dorothy Birchard? I hear that she made quite a name for herself as a singer. I am going to try and pick her upon my machine. SCENE III (Boys and girls sitting around laughing and talking. An orchestra in the back- ground is playing. Leader Robert Lareau. Stanley Clunk, Alvin Hodgson, Clarente Hagberg, Richard Handel, etc. When music stops, Robert steps fonoard.) Robert: We are always glad to have our friends drop in to see us, and to- night we feel doubly happy to have among us old friends of our high school days: that sweet singer, Dorothy Birchard, and Joe Boyer, the lad who always crooned himself into the hearts of the girls. (They sing.) Dorothy: I have been asked to announce that there is to be a reunion of the class of ’37 of the High School of Commerce to be held on June 20 of this year. You are all invited to attend. Robert: Thank you, Dorothy, for your lovely song and for your cordial invitation. As a member of the reunion committee, allow me to extend my in- vitation also. We are privileged to have with us tonight Mademoiselle June Meade and her group of girls who are to perform for us. (Girls enter and dance.) Curtain She: The class is having a reunion and we’ve been invited to attend. I wonder if Lorraine Harpin, the actress; Peter Crcanza, senator from Massa- chusetts; George Long, the great lawyer, and his friend, Irving Young, the eminent physician, will be there? I'm dying to see them again, now that they are famous. He: There is one imperfection in my machine. I cannot pick up the voices of people on boats, but I can show you what's happening on an ocean liner. SCENE IV (Ship Scene.) He: Whom have we here? My, my, it seems as though our Commerce students haven’t done so badly for themselves. Strolling along the deck, we come upon a couple strolling beneath the stars. Well, well, if it isn’t little Doris Ferris. It seems that she has given up her career as a stenographer and has just married that distinguished looking gentleman beside her, otherwise known as the Duke Something-or-other hence the love scene, f arther down the deck and in a less romantic place, we find a group of business men discussing a certain personage who is bound to run for mayor back in the little town of Springfield. Let me see. Isn’t that Georgia Anastos declaring her rights, and Jimmy Andrews trying to get his two cents’ worth in? 84 CADUCEUS Shi:: Let’s look into the lounge. Well, if that isn’t Alex Thom and Phyllis Wheeler arguing as usual. Why, that’s Hope Howlett, the famed radio star, almost hidden by a group of admirers. In the crowd we see Alice Florcyzk, feeling the material from which Miss Howlett’s dress is made. But that is easy to understand. She is the buyer for Forbes and Wallace. Who is that mademoiselle walking beside that smart looking fellow? It’s Eva Ferioli, and it looks as if she had got the millionaire that she said she would marry. We must meet the chef who makes the meals for this ship. Well, for heaven’s sake, if it isn’t Bob Hough! We knew him when he was just learning to cook. Curtain Shi:: So many of our people were in the journalism classes, many of them must have entered the newspaper field. He: I will show you a scene in the editor’s office of the Daily Blah. SCENE IX NEWSPAPER OFFICE {Everyone is talking to someone else. Editor seated at desk Kith department editors seated around.) Editor: If I can get a word in edgewise. I’d like to start this meeting. I know you have a lot to talk about, but this meeting must get under way. I will now call the roll. Victor Berkowitz? Victor: Here. Editor: William Bremner? William Bremner, are you here? Billy {stopping his conversation): If I’m not here, I brought the wrong person along to represent me. Editor: James Syner? Jimmy: Here. Editor: Eleanor Jacques? Eleanor: Present. Editor: Betty Merz? Bktty: I am most assuredly present at this, the third meeting of the Daily Blah. Editor: Ruth Miller? Ruth : Present. Editor: Now that we are all present. I want to talk to you about last week’s edition. We’re all one big family and I want each one of you to speak freely. Mr. Bremner. I have received complaints about you while you were reporting our last baseball game. What did you say to the umpire? Billy: I just asked him where his dog was. Editor: And he told you he had no dog. Then what did you say? Billy: I said, “Well, you’re the first blind man I ever saw who didn’t have a dog.” Editor: And Mr. Bremner, you were twenty minutes late again. Don’t you know what time we start our meetings? Billy: No, sir: they’re always at it when I get here. Editor: Mr. Bremner, you’re impossible. I suppose your home tow n is one of those places where everyone goes down to meet the train. Bii.ly: What train? Editor: I give up. Miss Miller, you haven't handed in a feature story for a week. What is the trouble? Can’t you find a subject to write on? Why don’t you write on the outstanding contribution that chemistry has given to the world? Do you know what that is? Ruth: Yes, sir, I know': blondes. 85 CADUCEUS ANTICIPATED C H A N G E S — (Continued) Editor: Miss Miller, I'm sorry to say that you are as bad as Mr. Bremner. Probably you can write a feature on the two major problems in America today, if you know what they are? Ruth: Oh, yes, 1 know: outlaws and in-laws. Editor (sarcastically): Do you ever pause and reflect on the opportunities you have missed, Miss Miller? Ruth: No. It would be just my luck to miss some more while I was re- flecting. Editor: Heaven forbid. Probably I’ll get some human answers from you, Mr. Berkowitz. I want a story about the sheep they have found in the Himalaya Mountains that can run forty miles an hour. What do you think of it, Mr. Berkowitz? Victor: What do I think of it? I think it’s about time they found a lamb that can keep up with Mary nowadays. Editor: Mr. Berkowitz, when I told you to put all details into your stories, I didn’t want a story like this last one you handed in. I’ll read it for the benefit of the rest of the staff. Como, Colorado, June 8 — A severe storm passed over this section this afternoon and lightning struck a barbed-wire fence on the ranch of Henry Willson, killing three cows their names being Jessie, Bossie, and Buttercup.’’ Now, if this sort of thing continues, the paper will have to go out of circulation. Editor: Now, Miss Merz, you are our style editor. What is new in styles? Betty: Well, sir, women in Paris are now wearing coats of banana skins. Editor: So for that matter are bananas. I heard that you were knocked down by an automobile this morning. I’m sorry to hear it, Miss Merz. Did you get the number of the car? Betty: No, but the creature that was driving it wore a three-piece tweed suit, lined with Canton crepe, and she had on a periwinkle hat, trimmed with artificial cherries. (Office boy enters.) Office Boy (nervously): Please, sir, I think you’re wanted on the ’phone. Editor: You think! What’s the good of thinking? Office Boy: Well, sir, the voice at the other end said, Hello, is that you, you old idiot?” Editor: Get out of here before I go crazy. Between you and this stall you’re slowly driving me to my grave. Miss Jacques, don’t you find writing a thankless job? Eleanor: On the contrary, everything I write is returned to me with thanks. Editor: No, your writing hasn’t been bad, but I’d like to have you figure this out. Now, suppose a man working on the river bank suddenly fell in. He could not swim and would be in danger of drowning. Picture the scene—the man’s sudden fall—the cry for help. His wife knows his peril and hearing his screams, rushes immediately to the bank. Why does she rush to the bank? Eleanor: To draw his insurance money. Editor: Mr. Syner, you are the only one left to console me. Where is the article you were to write on how to drive an automobile? James: I have it here, sir. Editor: Will you read it, Mr. Syner? 86 CADUCEUS James: Certainly. Step into the car and sit down. Now, we’re all set. Just turn the jigger over, and push on the hickev with your left hand and pull down on the other little jim-crack with your right; then press down on the other doodad with your foot and pull the thingumbob with your left foot and yank the umpydiddy back; then let up on the foot dingus and put your other foot on the hickey-madoodle; and don’t forget to push down on the hoot nanny every time you move the whatyoumaycallit, and you’ll be hunkydorey, see? Editor: That’s just fine, but what do you mean? The doofunny, the hickey, the hickey-madoodle, the hootnanny. and the rest of the jargon? Get out, get out, the whole bunch of you! Say, wait a minute, I have something to tell you before you leave. I want you to promise me never to use two words. One is Swell and the other is Lousy. Would you promise me that? The Whole Staff: Why. sure! What are the words? (The staff walks out and the editor faints). Curtain She: So much has happened to our classmates. Many of them have become very successful in their chosen field. It isn’t surprising considering the excellent training we received in the High School of Commerce, not only in learning facts, but in building personality. lie: I’ve seen enough to make me interested in our classmates again. Let’s you and I go to the reunion. She: Let’s go! Curtain Committee: Kathryn Huot Cecile Dutilly Bernard Belleville Eva Ferioli CLASS SONG Three happy years have quickly passed, Since first we came to you Three joyous years of learning, That seem to us too few. And so, dear Commerce, now we see The road that points to life — With steadfast hearts we proudly go, To face our joys and strife. Integrity and Industry, We never will forget — We owe you much, dear Commerce; We’ll strive to pay our debt.

O. STATISTICS For 1936-1937 the General Organization granted $7500 for the activities of thirteen member units. This was the amount which they estimated might be necessary to carry them successfully through the school year. Receipts from these activities were expected to net $2325, and General Organization dues for an average year are approximately $4500. In September, 1936, there was a surplus of $2833.03 in the G. O. treasury. This was an increase of $666.08 over the surplus of Septem- ber, 1935. From the size of these figures it can be seen that, on a school scale, our G. O. does considerable business. The G. O. Budget estimates for 1936-1937 reveal that the June 1937 class planned to spend $1200 for senior class activities, and the January class planned about $1000. The facts that the June class had 388 members and the January class 264 at the time of these estimates, and that June Seniors are here for two semesters, explain the difference of $200. The G. O. foots a bill sometimes as high as $400 for cleaning, pressing, mending, and replacing with new stock those stately caps and gowns which are worn by seniors on Class Day. Class Day to the seniors means the exchanging of pictures, but to the G. O. it usually means an expense of approximately $60 per class. The entertainment for these programs costs $50 on an average. Estimated expenses for the January Class Promenade were $212. The June class planned approximately $239 for its dance program. The expenses for or- chestras and programs are the heavy items for the Prom. $90 for programs and $85 for the orchestra were the heaviest expenses of the January Prom. That the average Commerce senior is a hearty eater is proved by the fact that, for dinners at the class banquets, the January class paid approximately $245 and the June class planned in the neighborhood of $400. After glancing at the cost of tips at banquets, it seems that the word “gen- erosity” should be added to the school motto, “Industry and Integrity.” Tips at the January banquet were $20, and $40 was estimated for the June banquet. According to records, the Boys’ Athletic Association is another large item on the G. O. budget. Approximately $1250 will be spent on boys’ sports during the year, and receipts will total about $200. The receipts are as low as this because only one sport, football, nets an income that may be considered, and the fall of 1936 proved unusually poor for football money. Baseball and all the minor sports cannot pay for themselves, and in basketball the gymnasium is too small to ac- commodate other than G. O. members at the games. 102 CADUCEUS G. O. STATISTICS—(Continued) It costs in the neighborhood of S450 to sponsor the school’s football team. Basketball, probably the most popular of major sports at Commerce, receives about S225, which is less than the other major sports receive. An estimated S244 was to be spent on baseball this year. Soccer leads in the minor sport field with approximately S150 for expenses. Hockey receives S50, tennis SI 1, golf $34, and track S44. The Girls’ Athletic Association incurs expenses of about $155. Of this amount, $65 is spent for parties, S50 for equipment, and $40 for letters and pins. The estimated net cost to the General Organization of twenty-nine issues of Commerce is $1550. One issue of Commerce costs approximately S55. Estimated receipts are in the vicinity of $300, and $8 is spent for the daily bulletin boards. The franking privilege by which Commerce is mailed to subscribers costs only $3 a year. The total estimated expense of publishing the yearbook, Caduceus, is $1200. Printing, which costs $775, is the largest item. Engraving for Caduceus costs an estimated S400. The total income for the yearbook is $200. Subscribers pay about $110 of this total income. The annual Christmas assembly cost $40, of which the expenses for gifts topped the list with $26. The annual G. O. Pop may cost as high as $100. The January and June classes of 1938 were given an estimated $204 and $110, respectively, for expenses. The 1939 classes were to receive $120 each, and the January 1940 class, an estimated $60. Approximately $320 was to be re- ceived by the music organizations during the school year. Estimated receipts are $200. The resignation of Mr. Watkins naturally changed these figures. Although each year the budget calls for more money than the combined dues and miscellaneous receipts will cover, a careful economy all along the line has usually prevented a deficit. The G. O. system has thus far enabled the organization to accomplish its avowed purpose: “to provide for its members a maximum of the activities of the school at a minimum expense.” -Theodore Zieminski CHEF CLUB Miss Grace L.

The immediate purpose of the Springfield High School Radio Workshop is to develop the talents of high school girls and boys, and to give them actual experience in the work of a radio station. Programs are broadcast each Monday from 5:00 5.15 P. M. over Station WSPR. They have featured Scholastic radio plays, book review contests among the three high schools, poetry reading contests, musicales. vocational guidance talks and interviews, a variety “pop,” an etiquette quiz, radio news, and similar subjects of interest to high school pupils. Over Station WMAS monthly programs are presented, in which request numbers from previous WSPR programs are repeated. The officers of the Radio Workshop are as follows: Director — Miss Genieve M. Allen President — William Gilman, Jr. (Classical) 1 st Vice-President - Rita Berard (Commerce) 2nd Vice-President— Eleanor Fine (Technical) Recording Secretary — Dorothy Birchard (Commerce) Corresponding Secretary — Marguerite Farnsworth (Commerce) Treasurer — William Kervick, Jr. (Classical) Committees: Play Reading-.

V. Up to that time, each separate musical organization was conducted under individual members of the faculty who used their free periods to advise the various groups. In 1915 the only musical organization here was a small orchestra under the direction of Miss Dorothy Belden, a history teacher. Her instrumentalists gave several performances, including a Christmas assembly, in combination with the Central High School orchestra, and in February a repetition of the graduation music, with the Central High School orchestra and the High School of Commerce chorus to aid them. In 1917 the orchestra consisted of sixteen members, six of whom played on alternating Fridays at the High School of Commerce motion-picture entertain- ments then held in the assembly hall. In this same year, both the Boys’ and Girls’ Glee Clubs were begun, the former by Mr. F. Herman Fritz, head of the English Department, and the latter by Miss Marion Pratt, of the Domestic Science Department. The twenty boys gave their first concert in an assembly with a program of allied national anthems. The girls later commanded the applause of the whole school when they sang Keep the Home Fires Burning at the time of America’s entry into the World War. In 1918 the glee clubs and the orchestra under the direction of Mr. Fritz presented the operetta Sylvia. In this year, also, Miss Marion Pratt, the organizer of the Girls’ Glee Club, left the school, and Miss Gertrude Sibley, of the English Department, took her place as adviser. The next year Miss Dorothy Belden took Mr. Fritz’s place as adviser of the Boys’ Glee Club. The president was Mr. John S. Young, founder of the John S. Young Speaking Contest, and now a staff announcer in Radio City, New York. The orchestra, of fifteen members, furnished music for the play, The Fire Prince, presented in December. When Miss Sibley left in 1920, Miss Anne Donlan of the English Depart- ment became her successor, and in 1921 Mr. George Reed, manual training instructor, became director of the orchestra. The two important events of the year in the music groups were the Glee Clubs’ farewell party for the seniors and the performances on December 9 and 10 of the operetta, Pirates of Penzance. In 1923, the Girls’ Glee Club, under Miss Donlan, took part in a school play given in December. A Ukulele C lub was begun in this year under the leader- ship of the versatile Miss Madeline C. Hunt, who still teaches typewriting and office appliances at Commerce. Each year, the Girls’ Glee C lub became more active, increasing to thirty- five members in 1925. The orchestra had forty members by that time. Miss Hunt became the adviser of the Boys’ Glee Club, and the other advisers remained the same until Mr. Allen’s arrival in 1928. Mr. Allen introduced many new features, among which were the division of the («iris’ Glee Club into two groups, the Junior and Senior, and the initiation of a Bugle and Drum Corps, which in its first season consisted of twenty-three members. In September, 1930, Mr. William J. Watkins came to Commerce after teaching music in Saranac Lake, New York. In this, his first year at the High 124 CADUCEUS William J. Watkins B. M., Mus. M. Director of Music 1930- 1936 School of Commerce, he launched the first in his series of unique class-night programs. The presentation was the operetta, Trial By Jury. In 1933, he introduced the band, and on January 23, 1934, he led his entire department in a successful winter concert. In September of this same year, under his capable leadership the orchestra won first prize for its work in the J unior Music Contest at the Eastern States Exposition. In April, 1933, his orchestra participated in the Inter-High School Orchestra performance at the municipal auditorium. In the same year, Mr. Watkins further divided the Girls’ Glee Club, separating it into three distinct groups; namely, the Junior A Glee Club with twenty-seven members, and the Senior Girls’ Glee Club of 124 members, establish- ing something of a record. He reaped more laurels with his orchestra, again win- ning first prize in the Junior Music Contest at the Eastern States Exposition, and his combined groups presenting the operettas, Bells of Beaujolais and The Pirate's Daughter. The crowning point in the career of Mr. Watkins at the High School of Commerce came early in 1936 when the annual winter concert was broadcast over Station WMAS. The entire department took part with the Misses Margaret Hill, ’30, Ruth Keifer, ’36, Anne McLeod, ’37, and Elizabeth Stonerod, ’38, as vocal soloists. In this same year the operet ta, And It Rained, was presented under his direction. Mr. Watkins left during the Christmas vacation to become Supervisor of Music in the schools of Grosse Point, Michigan. His place here was filled tempo- rarily for a period of a few weeks by Mrs. Frances Belcher Shaw, a local voice teacher. She was relieved by the present music director, Mr. F. Anthony Viggiano of Pennsylvania. Within a comparatively short time Mr. Viggiano has accom- plished a great deal, having tested almost all the voices in the school, and having introduced the slide system for assembly singing. He expresses his appreciation for the co-operation he has received during the short time he has been here. —Mildred Vaughn Alvan Hodgson 125 CADUCEUS Fifth Row. Left to Right: Theodore Zieminski.

Besides coming out on top in the city league, the Raiders compiled a record of eight victories and four defeats for a .667 average which was highest among the local high school teams. Although the Crimson baseball nine was not invited to compete in the State Baseball Tournament which was held at Pynchon Park in June, it had the satisfaction of defeating three of the eight teams that were invited: Turners Falls, Amherst, and Technical. The Crimson team’s batting average of .292 was among the highest of Commerce baseball averages. Two men, Joe Zanolli and Billy Bremner, shortstop and second baseman respectively, were selected as choices for their positions on the All City and All Western Massachusetts mythical teams. A 6 to 5 victory over a strong Turners Falls team, which was selected as the Western Massachusetts Baseball Champions at the close of the season, initiated the Raiders’ schedule of twelve games. Jimmy Yvon’s four-hit pitch- ing was the main factor in garnering the victory for Commerce. In this game Shortstop Joe Zanolli starred in the field, while First Baseman Ted Zieminski led the batting attack with three hits out of four trips to the plate. Amherst High was next to tumble off the undefeated list when Commerce pinned a 5 to 3 defeat on that team at Forest Park. John Poulos scattered nine of Amherst’s hits while his mates bunched and Joe Zanolli gave stellar performances. West Springfield was the third successive victim to fall before the Crimson team by a 6 to 5 score in a game played at Forest Park. Herb Hollister, a former Commerce hurler, was on the mound for the visitors, but his former mates took no pity and slammed him for eight hits and six runs. Russ Peterson and Ted Zieminski hit hard for the Crimson, while the ever-starring Joe Zanolli saved the day with his spectacular fielding. After winning three straight games, the Raider aggregation struck a snag and stumbled before Cathedral High by a 20 to 3 score. The Parochial lads slammed three Crimson hurlers around the lot for 18 hits. Outstanding in defeat was Stan Kogut, Commerce catcher, who collected three safe hits out of five tries. Stan smashed out a triple, as did his team mate, Billy Bremner. The Raiders travelled to Turners Falls to face the Indians in a return game and were avenged by dropping a 11 to 0 verdict to the Power-towners. Howard Haskins, Powertown hurler, limited the Raiders to three hits, but one of these was a lusty triple by Joe Zanolli. The Raiders returned to interschool wars and pinned a 5 to 2 defeat upon Coach Bob Berry’s Classical nine at Forest Park. Jimmy Yvon toiled in the box for Commerce and was well-supported by Joe Zanolli and Billy Bremner, who laced out four hits apiece. In Billy Bremner’s collection of bingles, there was a home run and a three-base hit. The Crimson team’s next league game was an 8 to 7 loss at the hands of a fighting Trade nine at Blunt Park. The Beavers overcame a six-run lead to clinch the contest. Joe Zanolli led the Crimson stickers with three hits. A highly favored Tech team next met and defeated the Raiders by a 11 to 5 score. A shortage of hurlers in the Crimson ranks brought about the defeat as Stan Brodowski, an outfielder, worked on the mound. Joe Zanolli again led with three hits, while Ted Zieminski laced out a home run for the Crimson. A campaign of revenge was begun when the Raider nine edged Cathedral 130 CADUCEUS in an eleven-inning game by a 4 to 3 score at Forest Park. Bernie Knightly came through with a single in the eleventh to score Pete Creanza from third base with the winning marker. Ray Dionne pitched the first of his four straight victories. Classical High was again defeated by the Raiders, but in this second meeting of the teams at Forest Park, Joe Zanolli continued his spectacular playing by getting four hits, and Catcher Stan Kogut also secured the same number of bingles. Another avenging session was held at Forest Park when Commerce swamped Trade by a 14 to 5 score. With Ray Dionne pitching steady ball and Billy Bremner leading the batting attack, the Crimson lads had an easy time. Stan Kogut, Joe Zanolli, and Tony Afflitto were credited with three hits apiece in the slugfest. In the final league game of the year, the Crimson charges of Coach “Chief” Myers defeated Tech in a thrilling twelve-inning contest by a 7 to 6 score at Blunt Park, and forced the Tigers into a tie with them for first place in the Interschool League. After battling on even terms for eleven innings, Pete Creanza, Crimson third sacker, cracked out a single to score Billy Bremner with the winning run. Ray Dionne was instrumental in bringing about the victory. Billy Bremner led the sluggers with three hits. The 1936 season was the first time in eleven years that a Commerce baseball team finished on top of the local pack. Let us hope that championships come to Commerce more often to follow the example of this team of 1936. Following are the batting and fielding records of the 1936 championship baseball team of Commerce. The team fielded for an average of .935and batted fora .292 average. Joe Zanolli led the batters with a remarkable average of .449 which was also highest in the city, and Ted Zieminski led the fielding with a .978average. FIELDING BATTING G. P.O, . A. E. Pet. G. A.B.

TRACK, 1936 After a lapse of five years, track was again revived in the local schools in 1936. The Commerce team was coached by Mr. G. Donald Melville, economics teacher better known as “Doc”. The revival of track was not long-lived, however, as inadequate housing facilities at the high school track at Blunt Park forced the discontinuation of the sport. Five boys, who had what it takes, voluntarily trained for the Western Massachusetts Interscholastic Meet which was held at Pratt Field. Leading this group was Herb Menzel, Commerce three year honor pupil, who finished I bird in the mile finals. This student athlete was far in arrears of the leaders midway in the race, but he made a spectacular finish to be placed among the leaders. Milton Fortune placed third in the preliminary 440-yard run, and in the finals was ranked fifth in the strong field of runners. Vincent Abrahamson qualified as a javelin thrower and finished fifth in the finals with a throw of 128 feet. So was the 1936 track season closed, and until improvements are made in the athletic facilities to be used by high school boys, so will they continue. Future years will undoubtedly see an improvement in the track sport. 132 CADUCEUS Fourth Raw. Left to Right: Manager, John Ford; Coach. Mr. Harold V. Jones; Assistant Manager.

In this game, Joe Zanolli, Walt Kehoe, and Stan Maslowski all hit double figures. The same players repeated against Enfield High in the second game, which the Crimson easily won. A well-drilled Tech High team, paced by their center, Vic Raschi, who scored more than half of his team’s points, snapped the Raiders’ two game winning streak, handing them a 29 to 15 setback in the Tech High gym. It was a well earned victory for the Tigers who outplayed the Crimson in every department. In the second interschool game, the Commerce Quintet easily subdued Cathedral High, defending city champs, by handing them a 42 to 10 setback. Featuring the Raiders in this game were Kogut, Zanolli, and Maslowski. Led by Stanley Kogut, Commerce’s outstanding guard, the Jones-coached clan traveled to Holyoke and won an unexpected 25 to 16 victory. Kogut tallied 13 of his team’s 25 points. This victory placed the Raiders among the top-notch high school teams in Western Massachusetts. By defeating the Classical Bulldogs, the Crimson five won their second interschool game in three starts. Kehoe and Maslowski set the scoring pace in this game by scoring 10 points apiece. Easthampton High proved to be nothing but a “breather” for the Raiders, who easily defeated them 46 to 9. Joe Zanolli with 16 points and “Blondy” Maslowski with 11 were high scorers. The Trade School quintet entered the Commerce gym. with a record of five wins and no losses, and were handed a 43 to 23 defeat by the Crimson. This was Commerce’s third interschool win, and it put them in the running for the city title. This game was the last for Joe Zanolli, forward, and Walt Kehoe, center, who were leaving the team because of mid-year graduation. For the second time during the season, the Tech High aggregation de- feated the Raiders 31 to 37. The Crimson put up a stubborn fight and for a short time were leading the Tigers. “Ray” Carr, Technical center, was best for the winners with 10 points. “Stan” Kogut scored 16 points for his team and kept the Raiders in the game. Playing before a large crowd in St. Michael’s Hall, the Commerce five defeated Cathedral High 24 to 20 for the second time during the season. Stan Kogut and Olinto Ugolini paced the Crimson. In a close but uninteresting game, the Jones-coached hoopsters defeated Earl Lordens’ Turners Falls quintet 28 to 25 in the Raiders’ gym. The Power Towners threw a scare into the over-confident Raiders in the fourth period by taking over the lead. In the closing minute of the game Stan Kogut hooped a basket to clinch the game. Willie Jenkins with 12 points was high scorer. The Commerce Red Raiders won their tenth game in twelve starts against Classical High. It looked as though the Bulldog quintet would win this game, but quick baskets by Kogut and Maslowski in the closing minutes put the jones- coached clan in the van for good. By letting Trade school defeat them 32 19, the Commerce quintet lost out in their chance for the city title. The Beavers had little trouble in winning the inter-school flag; they outclassed the Jones-coached clan from the very start of the game. Stan Kogut, husky guard, was honored by making every “all city” team. Stan has made every “all city” team for three consecutive years. He also was picked on the “All Western Massachusetts” schoolboy team. Joe Zanolli also was picked on the “All Western Massachusetts” five. 134 CADUCEUS Fourth Row. Left to Right: Coach Harold V.

Every defeat suffered by the Crimson hooters was avenged later in the season in return games. With an average of .667, the soccer team finished in second place in the Interschool League. The soccerites scored 31 goals and were scored upon ten times by their opponents. Captain Joe Zanolli led the Western Massachusetts high scorers with seventeen goals and was voted the most valuable soccer player in Western Massachusetts high schools by the Sportswriters’ Association. A veteran Ludlow High soccer eleven ended the Crimson’s winning streak of twelve games of the previous season when they outscored the Raider booters by a 3 to 2 count at Ludlow. Commerce led at the half, but the Ludlow lads rallied to win the verdict. Joe Zanolli and Bob Serra scored for Commerce in this opening game of the season. Undaunted by their defeat, the Crimson soccerites went ahead and blanked Monson High by a 2 to 0 score at Monson. Cathedral High, starting its second year in the soccer field, was severely beaten by 7 to 0 score in the first interschool game. Joe Zanolli was outstanding in performance by scoring five goals for the Raiders. Commerce next outscored Classical 2 to 1 to gain its third straight victory. A stubborn Trade eleven handed Commerce its first league defeat of the year by blanking them 1 to 0. Trade’s defense was too strong for the Crimson to crack through. Another league member, Tech High, scored a victory over the slipping Crimson clan. Scoring two goals to the Raiders’ one, Tech and Trade were the only league teams able to win over the Raider eleven. Monson High traveled to this city to be beaten 5 to 1, but next, Commerce’s fifth victory of the season was scored in easy fashion over Cathedral by a 6 to 0 score. Coach Hal Hones used his subs freely in this game. Satisfaction also came into the hearts of Joe Zanolli and his Crimson mates when Ludlow High was edged by a 1 to 0 score. Capt. Joe Zanolli himself put the finishing touches on the game by scoring the only goal of the day. Fol- lowing this, Classical High fell for the second time before the Raiders by a 4 to 2 score. Commerce’s only tie game of the year was played against Trade’s strong defensive eleven. The Beavers and Raiders toiled through the entire game with neither team able to kick a goal through the bars. When Tech was defeated by a 1 to 0 score in the final game, the Raiders avenged an early season loss which they had suffered at the hands of the Tigers. The loss to Tech did not deprive them of the league title which they had already clinched. 136 CADUCEUS Third Row, Left to Rizht: Coach Chief Myers. David Bradley. Fred Carmody. John Poulos.

From these past performers and several newcomers, “Chief constructed a grid machine that won three games, lost three, and tied one, for a .500 average. The Raider eleven was ranked ninth among high school teams in Western Massachusetts. The 1935 team was ranked twelfth, so a gain of three places was registered by the 1936 squad. Billy Bremner, diminutive halfback, was the only Crimson gridman to be placed on every “All” team in this city. Such stellar performers as Stan Kogut, Walt Kehoe, and Willy Jenkins were named on the second All City Teams. Billy Bremner led in number of points scored, with 25. In scoring their first two victories, the Raiders were an impressive group, scoring heavily and allowing no scores to be made against them. The lack of weight among their ranks was the chief weakness. The team as a group averaged 163 pounds, which is quite light for a high school team. Commerce tallied 78 points and was scored upon to the total of 38 points. By trouncing Amherst High by a 25 to 0 score at Pynchon Park in their season opener, the Raiders defeated practically the same team which had held them to a scoreless tie the previous year. Little Billy Bremner led the day’s scoring with two touchdowns. A defeat of the preceding year was avenged when the Raider gridsters met and swamped West Springfield by a 19 to 0 score at West Springfield. A heavy Cathedral team then bounced the Raiders out of the undefeated ranks by blanking them by a 13 to 0 score at Pynchon Park. Cath- edral’s ace full back, Milton Piepul, was the hero of the day, scoring all the points of the game. Commerce returned to the victory column in a stylish manner when it swamped Chicopee High by a 22 to 0 score at Brooks Field in Chicopee Falls. Billy Bremner, Ted Zieminski, and Willy Jenkins scored touchdowns, while Stan Kogut added the points after the scores. A dark horse team, Classical High, however, surprised everybody when it upset Commerce by a score of 12 to 7 on a very wet Pynchon Park gridiron. The Bulldogs took to the air to defeat the favored Raiders. Billy Bremner tallied the lone touchdown for Commerce. Trade’s industrious Beaver eleven was assured of at least a tie in the Interschool League by downing the Crimson to the tune of 13 to 6 at Pynchon Park. Commerce’s light line was crashed several times by the Beavers, who blocked three Commerce punts. Johnnie Poulos scored the Raiders’ only six points on a line buck. Technical’s Orange and Black team, an aspirant for a tie position in the Interschool League, was battled to a scoreless tie in the season’s finale for both outfits at Pynchon Park. The Tigers were highly favored to emerge in victory, but Commerce outplayed them by a sizable margin. Billy Bremner performed outstandingly on the offense for the Crimson, and Stan Kogut was strong on the defense. 138 CADUCEUS Second Row. Left to Right: Stanley C'lune. Lawrence Gosselin.

In their second game of the season the Crimson hockey team suffered a 3 to 0 defeat at the hands of Classical High. The Trade school pucksters found the Myers-coached sextet rather easy, and pinned a 3 to 0 defeat on them. Still unable to get into the win column since their victory over Tech in their initial game of the season, the Raider puck chasers suffered their third straight defeat of the season at the hands of Cathedral High, the score being 2 to 0. Avenging a defeat handed to them by the Red Raiders in their opening game of the season, the Tech High sextet easily subdued the Crimson pucksters handing them a 5 to 1 defeat. Peterson tallied the Raiders’ lone goal late in the last period. In their second engagement with Classical High at the West Side Arena, the Raider sextet showed much of its last year’s form, and the result was that the game ended in a scoreless tie. An outstanding feature of this game was the clever list of goal tending turned in by the Bulldog goalie, Robert Fuller. An overtime period failed to find either team entering the scoring column. The result of this game put the Tech High puck chasers out in front for the city title. The seventh contest proved to be lucky for the Crimson, for it was their seventh game of the season, and the Raider sextet scored a 2 to 1 victory over Trade. The game was exceptionally fast. Bardsley and Peterson scored for the Raiders; Choinard tallied the lone Beaver goal. Bardsley shot the puck through the Trade school goalie in an overtime period. The charges of Coach Myers lost out in their chance to place second in the city league, however, when they let Cathedral High defeat them 2 — 0. Ted Zieminski, Raider defenseman, was chosen on the first team of the Sunday Union-Republican’s “All City’’ selection. Zieminski, Joe Bardsley, and Russ Peterson were the mainstays of the Crimson Hockey team. GOLF, 1936 Mr. C. I.

The freshmen are initiated during the day by wearing costumes, and a party is given in their honor in the evening. Entertainment is provided by the “freshies”, and prizes are awarded. The rest of the evening is allowed for dancing. THE G. A. A. PIN The G. A. A. honor pin is the highest honor a girl can receive in sports. This pin is awarded to the girl who has earned five letters, three in different sports. This year the following girls have earned this high athletic honor: Pauline Cardin Christine Clarkin Thelma Hunter GAMES The Commerce girls indulge in many sports. Although there is keen competition, the girls are taught good sportsmanship. Their characters are im- proved by the necessity of considering the other person’s feelings. The girls are to be congratulated at the wonderful way in which they co-operate with one another. There is nothing that will improve character more than par- ticipating in sports, because the absolute essentials are good sportsmanship and co-operation. Spring, 1936 Every spring, tournaments are played off by girls who are interested in obtaining individual honor. A letter is awarded to the girl champion of any tournament, and numerals to the runner-up. TENNIS All those interested in tennis are given instruction in the rudiments of the game, and play on the Forest Park courts. Pauline Cardin............Winner Christine Clarkin......Runner-up DECK TENNIS Deck tennis is a very popular game. It is played with rubber rings which are tossed back and forth over a net. The court played on is similar to a regular tennis court, but it is smaller. The object is to keep the ring off the ground and to keep it going back and forth over the net. Tournaments are played by those who are interested in receiving awards. Florence Peterson.........Winner Doris Bennett..........Runner-up Anna Trela................Winner Eva Edwali.............Runner-up HORSESHOES Horseshoes is a game which requires a strong arm and the ability to judge distance. The girls strive very hard to make “ringers”, which occur when the horseshoe lands on the pole. Awards are given in this, also, at the finish of the tournaments. Thelma Hunter.............Winner Fae Curry..............Runner-up Pauline Cardin............Winner Helen Heinz............Runner-up 141 CADUCEUS JOURNAL OF SPORTS EVENTS, 1936-1937 (Continued) PINGPONG Pingpong has been given much publicity in the newspapers, so, not to be outdone, the Commerce girls adopted this sport. This game is really miniature tennis. It looks easy to bat the ball back and forth over the net, but the balls are so light that if they are batted too hard, they bounce off the table. In Commerce there are many expert pingpong players who have achieved their skill through hours of practice in the gymnasium. Eleanor Charron...........Winner Lucy Hughes...........Runner-up BADMINTON A new game has been introduced to the girls: Badminton. Only girls who belong to the G. O. and have paid their athletic dues are allowed to play this exciting and interesting game. It has proved to be quite popular with the girls, and they really enjoy playing it. Badminton has many of the characteristics of pingpong but is played with “birds”. This term does not refer to our feathered friends themselves, but refers to balls covered with feathers. It is very difficult to hit the ball and not break the feathers, but after much practice, this can be accomplished. A net is used as in pingpong. GOLF Under the direction of one of the gymnasium teachers, there are golf clubs in which the girls are taught this extremely popular pastime. BASKETBALL February and March, 1937 Eager contestants meet in the girls’ gymnasium for practice. Such ex- pressions as “I want to be guard”, “Shoot a basket”, “Watch the forward” may be heard. These expressions do not pertain to jail, target practice, or foot- ball, but are expressions used in basketball, a favorite sport among the girls. This year no permanent teams were formed, but anyone who was interested went down to the gymnasium on the designated nights, and impromptu teams were formed. A great deal of pleasure was derived along with the skill gained in “shooting” baskets. BASEBALL April, May, and June, 1937 After many weeks of practice, teams are chosen and inter-class games are played. Each contestant is urged to play in every position on the team before making the final decision, so that she may see which one she is best suited for. When inter-class games begin, there is keen competition because the team that is the victor plays other schools. This is a great honor as well as re- sponsibility. This team has the co-operation of all the girls, and they work very hard to uphold Commerce. Christine Clarkin Marion E. Lambert 142 CADUCEUS Third Row, Left to Right: Charlotte Mooney.

The object is to hit the ball over the goal line and to keep the opponents’ goal blocked to prevent them from getting their ball over the goal line. Teams are chosen, and rivalry begins between classes as inter-class games are played. Unfortunately, the girls’ hockey team was not very successful this year. They were defeated by Classical and Tech in the several games which they played off. This was largely due to the fact that the team consisted of freshmen who were playing the game for the first time. All the veteran players of the previous year had graduated, leaving quite a gap in the hockey team.

SOCCER, 1936 Soccer is similar to football except that a round ball is used and the ball, for the most part, is on the ground. There is, of course, no tackling. This is a rather strenuous game. Inter-class games are played, causing friendly competition. The Soccer Team came through the 1936 season as champions. They remained undefeated in all the games which they played with Classical and Tech. This result shows how splendidly the Soccer Team played.
