Volume I6 In 1915, the High School of Commerce first threw open its doors to smiling, eager boys and girls. The benign old clock above the entrance to the hall of busi- ness knowledge has ticked away twenty-five years since then, and many eager boys and girls have come to Commerce, and have gone smiling through. In 1941, the High School of Commerce celebrates its silver anniversary, twenty-five years of training the future Springfield busi- ness men and women. Those twenty-five years have brought many changes to the world, to America, to Springfield, and to Commerce. Then, as today, the future often looked dark, but always the dark days were less oppressive, for Commerce pupils always seemed to find that silver lining in life, the ability to meet it with a smile. The silver anniversary and the silver lining of Commerce are synonymous, because they both represent a host of boys and girls who have gone SMILING THROUGH COMMERCE Para nt Classified Smil Depart ORo yi ecm meee ee rtnere Serre 6 REIN GI Palomo mem yeahs ce ee ph BNA GIS BIOTE TSIUIEES. scccchbsconide: genvacom ecto come 8 Bnd Uniomori ccamemn en aeeeeN yan 9 Barewciieomilesme en: ae tenes = ae) aia aye OL Comments es hn oe eta cag 14 Honoredsomilesmeeeee ca eee he woes 15 @oveted@onit commemtvr es tar ct ac: feet ei PXAticipatccmolilccm mrt ntae saat ee 28 [INES lecwem eet ee ne ss, 29 Duecess Uo leseeeee weer eee ee 48 NG ITUONS ANCL SONEETES. acc chnesBavsbecetses ice aaene cee 49 Tat ly go sles eameerne ter ate tee ance edn 58 jeereeMa Mer etaty Lo Pega waa ee, See eae 60 JENSN MUI OLIN LEE oeeNea neice peontee Sa wromee ere 61 Glace Davalia lcs anaes earn eke 62 omic cent NG les saan eeeeeenn mes) oe 67 Pale vel NG AUiieniee ey Aten esccece ne cee 68 Wommerce: © D@rtles metas meen ee ae ee 7A ROD GLa ta(Giool estan ene en ere amen wee 1B: SOcta lomtlesy meee steerer rete was 73 DPOLlinovoOMiles ae see ay ene een ee 95 Wi hatronsmonitiess.. 5 = aaa ences 111 enmMansnipaonilese sche) eeeetee ae eeeee TBS DEE ENS Upon the threshold of a silver anniversary, we seniors dedicate the 1941 Caduceus to Miss Grace Bigelow and Miss Bernice Dearborn. Although the cares and worries of a teacher often seemed most trying, their courage and good humor surmounted the problems that frequently interrupt a school day, and for twenty-five years they always found time to smile. Miss Bigelow and Miss Dearborn have contributed much to Commerce, not only by their cheerful manner and conscientious teaching, but by the standards of devotion and service which they inspired. With their retirement Com- merce loses two friends and two fine and respected teachers. They represent twenty-five silver years of education, twenty-five years of smiling through Commerce. The untiring efforts and services of Miss Grace Bigelow generously enriched the Com- merce scene. She was instrumental in the establishment of the modern language depart- ment. Being eager for her students to accent school work with social opportunities, Miss Bigelow organized the Le Foyer club, and acted as adviser for ten years. English and French stu- dents well remember her delightful tales of travel in Europe, her firm manner, and also the humor- ous twinkle in her eye. Even after hearing thousands of pupils mispronounce French words in thousands of incorrect ways, she still was able to retain her good humor and smiles. Until her retirement, Miss Bigelow was a member of the Carlos B. Ellis Scholarship Fund Committee, proof of the high esteem in which she was held. Her presence was sought after in many activi- ties, and she willingly devoted her time to the promotion of various enterprises. Miss Dearborn will be greatly missed by both Bernice V. Dearborn Grace Bigelow the pupils who know her and by her many friends on the faculty. She became a member of the teaching staff of Commerce in 1913, when it consisted of a few rooms in the old Central High School. During those early years, Miss Dearborn came to appreciate the vision of Carlos B. Ellis, founder and principal of our business course, that some day Commerce would have a home of its own. The dream was realized on September 7, 1915, when the new million dollar High School of Commerce was opened. For the following twenty-five years Miss Dear- born gave service, both as a member of the English Department, and as a prominent figure in extracurricular activities. She was a sympa- thetic teacher, one who conscientiously taught her classes, counseled individual pupils, and co- operated not only willingly, but gladly, with her colleagues. Her insight into the educational needs of pupils kept her teaching both inspiring and practical. [6] Principal Smiles. Smiles have contributed much to twenty-five years of Commerce history: the smiles of our three principals, father and founder, Carlos B. Ellis; friendly innovator, Jerome Burtt; and sympa- thetic, reigning leader, Stanley O. Smith. Carlos B. Ellis had a vision; with un- tiring devotion and effort he made that vision a reality. Without his inspira- tion, there would have been no smiling through Commerce. In 1915, the twen- ty-cone gun salute of the neighboring United States Armory heralded the opening of the new High School of Commerce. Although Carlos B. Ellis had carried out successfully many en- terprises, none was more wonderful than the founding, twenty-five years ago, of our High School of Commerce. Only a man of vision, courage, and initiative could have done this; and only one who had power as well as wisdom could have directed it so wisely. All of Springfield was saddened at his death on March DOR NOS 3: Mr. Ellis nourished the flame; Mr. Burtt picked up the torch when the older man had been forced to lay it down. In 1931, Jerome Burtt, a kindly, sympathetic man, who delighted every one with his humor, became the new principal. He introduced the Boys’ Pa- trol and the General Organization, both outstanding contributions to Commerce life. Although his years at Commerce were the ones in which the community [7] felt depression, he brought prosperity to Commerce. In 1933 he left Springfield for a better position, but his smiling countenance left indelible memories of his honesty, sincerity, and deep, abiding sense of friendliness. Stanley O. Smith, efficient and force- ful, took the reins in September, 1933. In sympathy with the aims and ideals that have been synonymous with the history of Commerce, Mr. Smith as- sumed the task which had been endeared to him during his relationship with Carlos B. Ellis, when he had been a teacher of bookkeeping, law, and pen- manship at Commerce. That business and pleasure can never be mixed has been contradicted by the cordial friend- liness of “S.0.S. . To those of us who have looked up to him, Mr. Smith is the pattern of sound business-like administra- tion, and the kindly, sincere adviser who has helped many of us to see the benefits of industry and integrity, as we have gone smiling through Commerce. With Mr. Smith, we honor Stillman E. McKerley, who re-entered Commerce as Assistant Principal in May, 1939. Mr. McKerley, with his smiling countenance, his red hair, and his genial personality, has impressed all students with his fine example of intelligent and useful citizen- ship. Carlos B. Ellis, Jerome Burtt, Stanley O. Smith, Stillman E. McKerley: each Cal Smith confer Mr. McKerley and Mr. as Principals Ellis and Burtt has been an undeniable influence in this era of business education; each has pos- sessed that outstanding attribute which the class of 1941 honors, the spirit to go smiling through. Pe OTT OFFICES TAEF Miss Alice F. Danforth, Ofhce Supervisor Whenever a pupil’s schedule is so confused that no one can banish the conflicts, to Miss Danforth goes the perplexed teacher. Calmly, and as swiftly as if she had not just completed many hundreds of similar programs, Miss Danforth unravels the puzzle. How does she do it? Ask her—she’ll do it every time! Whenever a pupil, afflicted with that anti-school feeling, conceives of a splendid plan for playing truancy, he is careful to return home at just the expected hour. But he finds his mother awaiting with a grim expres- sion. How does she guess he’s skipped school? Ask Mrs. Moakler—she’ll do it every time! Whenever the secretaries are piled high with work, and Miss Humberston must enter grades, answer the telephone, and write many letters, some teacher requests that she complete some extra task, such as comput- ing the honor averages. Smilingly, Miss Humberston will achieve the impossible. How does she do it? Ask her—she’ll do it every time! Mrs. Florence Moakler, Miss Helen Humberston [8] Enduring.

Dowd, Charles A. Speer, Winona F. Libby, Eleanor P. Davis, Gilbert C. Walker, Charles H. Oswald, Guy D. Miller, Helen E. Parker, Sarah A. Hillman, Joseph E. Buckley, Will W. Macalpine. The Business Department, under Mr. Guy D. Miller, Chairman, offers Commerce students a wide field of work in the accounting, salesmanship, and clerical courses. This year pupils have been especially interested in the new office apparatus: the Ediphone, two billing machines, different bookkeeping machines, and the electric calculators. This department aims to teach students the fundamental principles of business, and to develop initiative and executive ability. For this reason, in 1935, G. O. Accounting was introduced. In this course, the members follow the same procedure as is used by any business office. SOCIAL SCIENCE DEPARTMENT Mr. P. A. Richmond, Exchange Teacher from California CORNER OF LIBRARY G. Donald Melville, Preston A. Richmond, Leslie S. Shipway, Mrs. Rena P. Bartlett, Hazel K. Miller, Mrs. Hilda H. Madsen, H. Elizabeth Phelps, Augustus H. Smith, Harold E. Taylor, Dora M. Briggs, Helen M. Lynch, Alice L. Halligan. History, not a drab recital of dates, not a list of pompous public officials, but a living, human study of a nation struggling toward democracy; civics, the mechanics of that same beloved form of government; economics, not Carlyle’s “dismal science,” but an attempt to show.how the factors of production, labor, business enterprise, land, capital, and government may work together to protect our American ideal from all “isms: these are the subjects our department of social science offers.

The Secretarial Department places its emphasis on developing usable skill in writing shorthand and in typewriting, so that it may send its grad- uates well prepared into Springfield offices, but it also finds time to help organizations in the community—such work as addressing envelopes for the Tuberculosis Campaign each year. The duplicating room (left) is one of the busiest and most useful corners of the building. Here the pupils who operate the mimeograph, the direct process duplicators, and the multigraph, turn out thousands of copies of bulletins, outlines, and programs for the use of the school. This work affords valuable and practical experience to students in their senior semester. ENGLISH DEPARTMENT Mr. Chatto Directs the Print Shop CLASS ROOM 106 Clarence I. Chatto, Jennie M. Roberts, Theodore M. Pease, Mildred B. Jenks, Genieve M. Allen, Emma G. Nickerson, Margaret O. Palmer, Augusta Colby, Belding F. Jackson, Frances C. Blakeman, Bernice W. Dearborn, Theresa W. Williams, Helen E. Rankin, Elizabeth S. Ullery, Madeline E. Maurer. Besides teaching, the members of this department supervise many major extracurricular activities. Mr. Chatto, Chairman, advises the school paper, Commerce, the Debating Team, and the Golf Club; Mr. Jackson fathers the Boys’ and the Girls’ Patrols; and Miss Rankin advises Caduceus, Director and founder of the Radio Workshop, Miss Allen also coaches the National Forensic League speakers; and Mrs. Williams advises the Nisimaha. Prac- tically all of the members serve on important committees. [10] HOME ECONOMICS DEPARTMENT Miss Dobbs with Foods Group DRESSMAKING ROOM Mildred Dobbs, Janet E. Scott, Rebecca S. Flagg, Martha B. Judd, Bernice White, O. Jean Bell, L. Frances Tourtellotte, Grace L. Bulkeley. What to eat; what to wear; how to make a good appearance and be socially acceptable; how to get along with one’s family, friends, and other associates; how to stretch the family dollar: these and kindred subjects are studied in the required Home Economics courses. Girls who have a special interest may elect advanced work in foods and in dressmaking. During the past year, many girls in the clothing classes have joined the Junior Red Cross and completed the:r quota of 488 garments: 341 skirts, 12 jumpers, 18 baby dresses, and 117 baby bonnets. Timely work has also been done in the planning of low-cost meals, and in the use of war-time rations. ART AND SCIENCE DEPARTMENTS Se ue Bia eto hill Music Director ART ROOM Howard C.

Arts, dealing with shaded lines and blended harmonies; science, working with truth and cold facts—these subjects are taught by two departments, one encouraging creative ability and developing imagination, the other demanding geometrical precision and clear reasoning. Working together, both departments develop within the students a breadth of appreciation and a clarity of thought that could not be attained without this co-ordinating of efforts.

Fisher, Oren B. Relyea. A mathematician proves the worth of his work by figures; the scientist is satisfied with his labor only after long experimentation; but when one tries to determine the value of physical education, there are no figures to add nor experiments to perform. This department deals with health and character development; it is impossible to evaluate its worth. A well- balanced program of sports, co-educational recreation, and group participation enables the combined staffs to reach their objectives: the formation of correct health habits and the development of healthy minds and bodies. Be: HEALTH COUNSELOR MRS. MARIAN C. CHESSON IN EMERGENCY ROOM Many of us, especially the girls, really appreciate our school nurse, Mrs. Marian Chesson, in Room 111. We know how friendly, helpful, and kind she is, not only in regard to all sorts of illnesses, but with personal problems as well. In the twenty-one years, she has smilingly greeted all who enter the emergency room, hundreds of us Com- merce girls have gone to her when we needed advice from some one outside our own home. It is said that “a friend in need is a friend indeed”; in Commerce, that person is Mrs. Marian Chesson! D Ei [12] a, FRACS Mis F 4 ¥ January Smiles. in. 1941 CLASS ADVISERS Mr. Will Macalpine Miss Pearl Davis Miss Jane Roberts We have often heard the expression “history repeats itself,” but we wonder whether in the twenty-five years of Commerce any other entering class felt sucn joyous excitement as we did on that January morning in 1938. For the first time we were to attend a school, not because we lived in a certain district, but because it was the school of our own individual choice—and a high school! Trying hard to be calm, we entered the building. Aided by friendly upper classmen and teachers, we 1ound our rooms, and during the day we were enrolled in classes. Our XB life had begun. During our XIB semester, Mr. Smith appointed our advisers, Miss Jane Roberts, Miss Pearl Davis, and Mr. Will Macalpine. They called our first and long-looked- forward-to class meeting at which Mr. Smith explained the purpose and value of a class organization. At the regular school elections in May, the officers for the re- mainder of our second year at High School of Commerce were chosen: Edward Livi, president; Mary Pothier, vice- president; Shirley Magowan, secretary. In December of our XIA year class elections were held again; then the ofhcers were chosen to lead us through our senior year. Edward Livi was re-elected president, Stamos Zades became our vice-president, and Barbara Nahlovsky was elected secretary. One day early in De- cember we came to school looking very happy. Now and then a girl would peek at the mirror in her vanity. Why? We were to have our class picture taken for Caduceus, and by this time we had learned what an important occa- sion that always is . Soon after the Christmas vacation came promotions and the beginning of our XIIB semester. We were now seniors, planning the program and issuing the invitations for the Freshman Reception. Recalling how we as fresh- men had enjoyed the reception planned for us, we tried to arrange for open rooms, interesting demonstrations, exhibits in special rooms and laboratories, and for pupil Secretary Stamos Zades Vice-President Edward Livi President CLASS OFFIGERS The formal program included a shorthand demonstration, a series of amusing monologues by the Footlight Guild, and music by the orchestra. Many of us participated in the demon- classes in the essentially business subjects. strations and the program. Do you remember Dick’s humorous monologue about teaching a woman to drive a car? Our senior arm bands arrived for the first XIIA as- sembly. The excitement of covering the white band with signatures was equalled only by the wild scramble to ex- change our pictures. Throughout the semester, committees were busy with the senior events, including class day, prom, and banquet. The Caduceus and G. O. agents followed us about demanding payments. Only the ar- rangements for the Thanksgiving assembly and our plans for the G. O. dance at the city auditorium interrupted our thoughts of the approaching final report card and senior events. So far this history has been largely a brief review of the organized activities, but our class history would not be complete without mentioning some of the individuals who have contributed to the prestige of the class and the honor of the school. Nathalie Boulais won the first prize in the John S. Young Contest, when she was a XB. Twice she won first place in the Western Massachusetts division of the National Forensic League, and she won third place in the New England division in 1940. Evelyn Rowley and George French, while still XIIB’s, crashed and passed the National Clerical Ability Test, given chiefly to the XITA pupils. Louis Galavotti and Doris Parker were captains of the Boys’ and Girls’ Patrols. Matthew Albert participated in a radio play, which was recorded on a transcription and sent to conferences in Indiana and Ohio; Ruth Butcher, Lucille Lavallee, and George French have taken dramatic parts for the Radio Workshop. Richard Emerson and George Robertson par- ticipated in several of Mr. Doane’s plays. Stamos Zades 14 Barbara Nahloysky Parker, Doris Cruickshank, Barbara Saabye, Edna Rowley, Evelyn Goldberg, Shirley Merkle, Mary Magowan, Shirley Nahlovsky, Barbara was chosen as the best speaker from the High School of Commerce for the 1940 Community Chest; Marjorie Fitzgerald was one of the winners in the contest this year. George French, Richard Obin, and Annette Lamoureux had parts in the movie, An Old Master Lives Again. George French, Shirley Goldberg, and Richard Obin received first, second, and third honors in an essay contest sponsored by the Veterans of the Foreign Wars. Mary Merkle won the Loyalty Week Essay Contest. In the department of music this year Marion Reynolds has been violin concert-mistress, and Rachel Barsom has been pianist for the orchestra and glee clubs. In athletics, twelve of our boys have participated with distinction in more than one sport: Dick Emerson, Pon- telies Tougias, and Zohrab Setian; Zohrab has made the All-City Star Team. Louis Galavotti and Sarkis Piligian [15 } anuUaty 194] Ponct Roll Niemczyk, Walter Setian, Zohrab Livi, Edward French, George Lague, Jeannette Tatamanis, Chrisanthe King, Marjorie Roth, Hannah Kerlin, Goldie Sugarman, Lillian Powenko, Fannie Meyer, Bella have been managers of our football sports. Among the girls who have been especially active and won G. A. A. pins are Eileen Mayotte, Marie Watson, Betty McGrady, and Shirley Magowan. When Junior Honors were awarded at the close of our XIB semester, our class had nineteen recipients; twenty Senior Honors, announced Class Day, gave our class a high rating in scholarship. Now closes the history of the January Class of 1941, the history of three years of work and play, and of the more than two hundred seniors who came “smiling through” the courses and the extra-curricular activities of the High School of Commerce.

Zo was not only a three-year honor student, but also a football, baseball, and track star. He was selected as a member of the all-city team. Besides being captain of the foot- ball squad; Setian was circulation manager of Commerce; Hi-Y treasurer and librarian; and a member of the Boys’ Patrol, of the G. O. Governing Board, and of the Senior Executive Committee. ‘Marjorie King was selected for the Nisimaha Club award for outstanding contributions to her class and school. Business Manager of Commerce, a member of the Girls’ Patrol, of the Areopagitica Club, and of the Modern Dance Club, Marjorie was prominent in school affairs. In her senior year, she took an active interest in the preparation of the 1941 Caduceus, and the graduation activities of her class. Marjorie was also a three-year honor student who had earned practically an all-A record. [27] Clg , Anticipated.

C. Masters Commerce, September 1938—Five hundred and fifty of us freshmen invaded the Commerce corridors. The at- tack began at about 8:00 A.M., and fresh invaders arrived steadily until about 8:30 A.M. Our Blitzkreigers were soon subdued by the seasoned troopers of several semesters. As 9A’s, we had been big frogs in our small junior high school ponds, but now we were just bewildered nomads in large corridors, asking timidly where we might find either Room 132 or 231. After the first hectic day was over, our invading army was practically absorbed into the scheme that we had previously so rudely interrupted. Our first big social event was the Freshman Reception, when many parents, teachers, and freshmen thronged to see an assembly presented by the XIIB class. Later we proudly showed our parents our school and introduced them to our teachers. Next on the social calendar were the G. O. Jamboree and the Frosh Frolic, both dances using Nor- man Temple’s orchestra. All superstition was set aside for the Frosh Frolic, which was held on Friday the 13th. Our third semester in Commerce was very important, because class officers and advisers were chosen. We elected Jane Russell, president; Virginia Violante, vice- president; and Linnea Walin, secretary. Miss H. Elizabeth Phelps gave us great pleasure by consenting to become our adviser. Miss Mildred Dobbs and Mr. William C. Masters were chosen as our other advisers. The third social, held in conjunction with the XIA class, was the outstanding social event of this year. It was held in the gym., which was decorated by a crystal ball. The music was provided by Kip Brook’s orchestra and was featured by two spot- light dances. Our XIA semester was marked by two outstanding as- semblies: one in which we saw Albert Tangora, world’s champion professional typist, who awed students and teachers alike with his uncanny speed and skill; the other, [29 } te Linnea Walin Secretary Virginia Violante Vice-President Jane Russell President CLASS OFFICERS when we brought attention to ourselves by winning the song contest at the “Loyalty Week Assembly.” We thus proved our school spirit. At our second election, we re- elected all our officers. After a year and a half of hard work, several members of the class were placed on the junior honor list. At the beginning of our XIIB semester we again threw superstition to the wind by holding our class social for a second time on Friday the 13th. A wonderful class roller skating party was held previous to the class social. For three days of our last semester, although only under- classmen, we labored patiently over senior tests. The tests were soon forgotten, for in the next week we became the new XIIA class. Now joy was really ours at last: that day we had worked for and anticipated for five long semesters—we were seniors! Soon came the senior assembly and our maroon and white arm bands. The war had affected our selected arm band colors, because no crimson felt could be obtained from Australia. After much scribbling of autographs upon them, the color mattered but little, anyway. Many committees were planned and the banquet and prom. soon became history. Only graduation exercises remained. This is not all of our history: soon our class will once again be freshmen,—not in school, but in life. Graduation is not the end, but rather the beginning of our education. We will again ask where to turn; again, seek knowledge. We shall again be rewarded with successes and failures and truly hardships may lie before us. But one thing i certain: no matter what the trials ahead may be, we wil come “Smiling Through!” 1 BETTY COLBY, ALBERT NEWSOME.

Com- merce has few rules, and new pupils are quick to sense the fact that these few are absolutely essential in managing a student body of two thousand. Even the most respectful pupils, however, can think of numerous schemes for “improvement”! This ambi- tion probably has been common to every entering class for the last twenty-five years, but this particu- lar group has enjoyed very outstanding pipe dreams. Upper — Foremost among these bubbles was the wish, “Why can’t we stroll outdoors during study periods? We need relaxation.” They tried; the boys’ patrol were adamant. Center — One allur- ing bubble concerned our mascot. “Where do they keep the Com- merce Kitty, anyway? Let’s find him and take him to football games.” What buisst. that dream? Ask Mr. Chat- to! Lower — The next bubble was less radical. ““Let’s decorate the blackboards like those in Room 105.” Teach- ers discovered the ar- tists; they washed boards, instead. Do all pipe dreams vanish in the face of practicality? Freshmen Pipe Dreams [ 50 ] PREPARE TO SMILE THROUGH COMMERCE Favorite classes prove to be penmanship and sewing for the Red Cross. Freshmen, Virginia Greer and Freida Chrisanthopoulous, are initiated by ij � e Jj Haughty Seniors. | CLASS OF JANUARY, 1943, HAPPY OCCASIONS Although they didn’t enter Com- merce until one and one half years later, the present XIB’s enjoyed our souvenir of the hurricane’s damage. The lamps, weakened by that historical gale, toppled over during a wind storm in December, 1940. The good old days of rhythmic typing — bat, rat, cat, mat — give real pleasure to nearly every XIB, as by then their mastery is at least in sight. THESE THREE CHARMING XIB’s are showing the carefree and happy-go-lucky manner worn only by the juniors who have passed froshhood, but not yet assumed the dignity of seniors. They now look forward to becoming expert enough to secure the Gregg Shorthand Proficiency Tests, an ambition heightened by a demonstration by Charles Zoubek, editor of the Gregg News Letter. Jubilant over the realization that they can no longer be classified as freshmen, the present XIB Class is now in the full swing of high school life. In March, the class was formally organized under the advisership of Miss Janet Scott, Miss Augusta Colby, and Mr. Leslie Shipway. A Red, White, and Blue Swing, featuring patriotic decora- tions and refreshments, was one of the most successful socials ever held in Commerce. ie SMILINGLY ENJOYS ADVANCING YEARS Pe DaReeARRIVES President Roosevelt passed the High School of Commerce on October 30, 1940, when he paid an official visit to the Springfeld Armory. All pupils were excused from their classes in order to greet the chief executive. PRESIDENTIAL SMILES Hearing the official 21-gun sa- lute, and seeing the President smil- ing and waving, the Commerce students felt a warm sense of loyalty and patriotism spread over them. The XA’s were especially elated; they felt almost adult. The President’s visit seemed to herald the end of their freshmanhood. OFFICERS One of the most lively events in Commerce last year was the election held on December 10 by the juniors. The results of two weeks of campaigning were (right) William Russell, dent; and Ruth Kilpatrick, Secretary; Gloria Boero, Vice-President. intensive Presi- CLASS OF JUNE, 1942 Ruth and Gloria ACTIVITIES Under enthusiastic officers, and with the aid of their advisers, Miss Mae Anderson, Miss Christine Lewis, and Mr. Joseph Buckley, this class held two successful so- cials, one in the fall, the other in the spring. Then studies were forgotten, and rhythm was king. In fulfillment of one of his cam- paign promises, President Bill also gave his class a roller skating party in March.

On the evening of October 21, 1940, an informal evening of roller skating was immensely enjoyed. They held a joint social with the XIB’s, November 22 of that year. A month later, the men and women from the Aged Homes visited Commerce's Christmas assembly as guests of the XIA Class, who presented them with unique gifts.

Y e 7 Yh Hi f} é ——— Banquet Smiles (January Prophecy) In the weeks that followed my receiving the invitation to a reunion banquet to celebrate the twenty-fifth anniversary of our graduation, I’m sure my work as court stenographer suffered. My mind was full of odd items about former class- mates, and when I met any of the class of °41, we immediate- ly exchanged information about absent friends and promised to meet at Commerce on the evening of January twenty-first. Mary Merkle, who for several years has had a syndicated column in the New York Herald, and I were hurrying up the steps at Commerce when a masculine voice greeted us, and turning we both cried, “Hello, Pons!” Pons told us he was director of the boys’ division of the Y.M.C.A. at Chicago. Pushing through the same big doors, we found ourselves surrounded by people who looked more or less familiar. Twenty-five years had brought many physical changes. “There’s Walter Niemczyk,” said Mary. “You know he’s a sports writer on the Herald-Tribune; and there’s Shirley Magowan. She has just published her third best seller. I see them rather often in New York.” Having spoken to Shirley, I glanced toward the assembly hall. “Why, just look inside. Isn't it beautiful!” A domed skylight and metal chairs upholstered in soft crimson leather had greatly improved the hall. Shirley told us that she had “inspected the building’ as we used to say on Freshman Night. She had found the building considerably enlarged and improved with regular office desks in the class rooms, a large swimming pool off the gym, gay metal stools in the lunch room, a banquet hall where we'd eat later, and on the roof—a roof garden for dancing and a recreation sun parlor. Our conversation was interrupted by the arrival of Mr. and Mrs. Dick Obin. Dick and Katherine Smith had been happily married for several years. We all moved into the banquet hall and found our places. I picked up the program. “Listen, everybody, Governor Stamos Zades is going to speak { 63 } YC ee —ey RESERVED BANQUET SAILES Do you know that Marjorie King is now his private first. secretary?” Someone pointed out Betty (McGrady) and Dick Emerson, a well-known undertaker. They were an attractive couple, very dignified and solemn. I had con- tinued reading the program and was pleased to find that Lucille Lavallee was to sing a selection from Carmen and was to be accompanied by Rachel Barsom. Both were gradu- ates of the Julliard School of Music. Near the speakers’ table we saw Bella Meyer, Lillian Sugarman, and Shirley Goldberg. Bella had become chair- man of the Democratic Women’s Club of Massachusetts; Lill was private secretary to the president of the Massachu- setts Mutual; and Shirley was head buyer at Jean’s—that well-established concern owned by Jean Baschizore. Our class president, Edward Livi, had been handed several telegrams and letters from classmates unable to attend. Edward, our state senator at Washington, D. C., announced that before the program began, he would quickly identify some of the writers and then have the messages posted on the bulletin board where we might read them later. Greetings had been sent from Dorothy Jahn, swimming champion, and from Ruth Butcher, figure skating champion at the latest Olympic Contest. There was a message from Albert Shepard, newsreel cameraman for M. G. M., who was filming scenes in the Belgian Congo. Matthew Albert wrote that he was scrubbing decks on the U. S. S. Pennsylvania and trying to become an admiral. Later we all were dancing to the rhythm of George French’s Fifty Famous Fiddlers. I was glad to see Jane McDonald. I had thought she’d be too busy with her social work to come. Zohrab Setian told me he was head coach at Cornell. All too soon we heard above the conversation and laughter the strains of Auld Lang Syne bringing to a close the reunion of a group of successful men and women, all of whom were loyal to the class of 41.

(Condensed from June Prophecy) In the year 1966, in the newspaper office of the Springfield Herald, the co-owners, Bob Doolittle and Carle Shapiro, and four of their columnists, Madeline Malone, An- gie Scamardella, Arthur Bousquet, and Harvey Cristofori, are seated looking over a current issue of the paper. Madeline exclaims, “Just look in the ad- vertising section! Here’s an article about Michael Swedt’s night club opening with a new floor show featuring Dorothy New, singer. And here’s a picture of Bill Wilson in a policeman’s uniform directing trafhe in front of the club.” Harvey notices an article on the sports’ page under the headline, “Lucie Cardin Wins Tennis Championship.” Althea Jahn, Skating Champion, Returns From Switzerland” heads another column. On the social page, the former classmates read that Charleen Prentice’s new book, “Blow with the Breeze,” is being made into a motion picture. There is also an item about the annual fashion show of the Women’s Club. Here, clothes designed by Barbara Sloan, Louise Bergmann, and Eleanor Shaw are being modeled by Florence Berkowitz. “Marjorie Gerrard Promoted to Radio City,” heads another story. Marjorie is one of the few successful women an- nouncers. In the birth columns are listed the fol- lowing births: Mrs. Howar d Snoogle (Eleanor Henry) has twins; Mrs. Carmen Hoglund (Doris Niemiec) has a baby girl; -and Mrs. Thomas Blank (Jane Nolan) has triplets whom she has named Cadu, Ce, Us. The Travel Club of Springfield are stop- ping to see Marie Nichols in Arizona, and Helen Newcomb, on her ranch for thorough- bred horses. On this social page is also a notice about the Women’s Club of which Jane Russell is president. They turn to another page and read Cracks from Chris, Harvey Cristofori’s column. He has written, “FLASH! Airliner crashes in Colorado storm! Both pilot and co-pilot were killed instantly, but eleven passengers escaped with minor injuries. Forest Rangers, William O’Brien and Arthur Robertson, were instrumental in the saving of the injured from the wreckage. Among the injured are the following notables: Shirley Baudin, special policewoman: Marjorie Russell, famous woman lawyer; Dorothy Mickool, journalist of the New York Star; Lucille Mondoux, Paramount’s newest glamour star; Elaine Pyne, air hostess; and Lena Mae Chatland, the ship’s doctor.” ‘“Here’s real news!” exclaims Angie. “ “Miss Frances Laznovsky, the city’s best dental hygienist, did a very good job in saving the mayor’s four front teeth.’ ” At this moment Harvey glances at his watch, although he doesn’t need it to tell him he is hungry. “Well! Everything’s all right for another day. What do you say to going over to Mike Swedt’s for a sandwich?” And so another day ends in the lives of these men and women who, twenty-five years ago, were adolescents just graduating from Commerce, which in that year celebrated its Silver Anniversary.

To Doc Melville we bequeath a new joke book; the jokes of 1910 no longer bring smiles. To the Commerce Kitty we leave more words of truth and thoughtfulness. The Class leaves to A. H. Smith an unwritten chapter for the next book he writes. Mary Merkle leaves the secret of her golden tresses to all those girls who are interested in catching “Gentlemen Who Prefer Blondes.” We leave to Miss Rankin a Murphy Bed to be installed in Room 105 for her convenience on those nights when she is burning the midnight oil working on Caduceus. We leave parachutes to those pupils who will have “Hal” Jones as teacher, just in case he should carry out his oft- repeated threat to throw those who displease him out of the window. Jane McDonald leaves her sweeping eyelashes to any deserving underclassman to whom they might be an asset in getting good marks. Bella Meyer leaves her manuscript entitled, “I’m for Roose- velt!” to Mr. Clancy, who will appreciate it, we know. To the girls of Commerce we leave our deepest hopes for more boys in Commerce. Evelyn Rowley, Marjorie King, Walter Carroll.

To Chief Myers we bequeath an egg beater with which to whip up a winning football team next fall. Mary Hogan leaves her collection of call-downs to the next person who gets caught parking in the space réserved for teachers. Norma (Curley) Scott leaves this bit of advice to all un- derclassmen: If you want curls, for heaven’s sake don’t cut your hair—eat carrots. To Kenny Conklin, we leave the complete suit of armor to protect him from the mad rush of females. George Morisi leaves his place in the spotlight on the grid- iron to Don Yvon, who, we are sure, will make good use of it. Helen Ann (Chickie) Chehowska leaves her bottle of peroxide to any girls who want to know her recipe for charm and allure. To Messrs. Shipway and Masters we leave a storage vault to hold all the detention slips they didn’t pass out. Shireen Abert leaves her tall hat and baton to whomever succeeds her as drum majorette. And in conclusion, to all incoming classes, we, the Class of 1941, leave the many happy hours of fun and joyous comradeship that we have known during our three years in the Best School in the World.

[96 } FOOTBALL, 1940 Great tension always pervades the air when the Crimson Raiders meet another team on the football field in Pynchon Park. Why? Because the Raiders are always sure of putting up a great fight and holding back their opponents in every game, even though the outcome may be a defeat for Commerce. The following sketch, which might have been of the last quarter of any game between Commerce and one of the teams played during this season, is illustrated by the snapshots: (1) The teams are in formation. Signals, 1-9-4-1. (2) Zo Setian receives the pigskin, moves to the left, then to the right to bewilder his foes, and finally makes an amazing end run for a five-yard gain. The Raiders retain the ball for two successive downs, but fail to make the third. The opponents have the ball, pass, and gain two yards. (3) Commerce is always defending, for Setian, brilliant halfback, completes a superb tackle just as the foe hopes to go over the ten-yard line. Again the Raiders hold their ground for two downs, but are finally stopped on their third. (4) The opponents have the ball. They kick, a beautiful kick. (5) But it is snatched by Don Yvon, promising end, who gains ten yards for Commerce before being tackled by the foe. Out of a clear blue sky, after the opponent has the pigskin once more, one of their teammates suddenly lurches forward with a comparatively empty field ahead, and commences on a long run toward their goal. (6) He goes over for a touchdown, barely escaping t he last ray of hope for Commerce, the flying tackle attempted by Teddy Scibelli. Commerce has lost, but she certainly had made an excellent showing. Top—Coach Oren Relyea explains a defense. Bottom—George Callahan evades two Cathedral men. 1940 SOCCER SEASON FAIR “The prospects look bright this season,” stated Coach Relyea (upper left), as he glanced at the boys reporting for soccer. Among the veterans were James Frank, Steve Krol, William Loader, Richard Emer- son, and Pons Tougias. The season can be summed up as a fair one, with three wins and five losses. RAIDERS Upset FAVORED HOP KINS Commerce scored one of the greatest upsets of the season (snaps above) by defeating the highly-favored Hopkins team with a score of 2—1. Previous to this, the Academy had won seven straight games. Emerson scored the first Crimson goal in the second period, when he knocked Loader’s well-placed corner kick past the astonished goalie.

He always re- fused to admit that his team was defeated until the final whistle was sounded. S1x PLACED ON ALL-City TEAM Commerce takes great pride in the fact that six of her soccer players were placed on the all-city teams.

BASKETBALL, 1940-1941 Although the Crimson Hoopsters ended the season with the disastrous record of four wins and twelve losses, Commerce did manage to gain the admiration of all their opponents. In most of the contests, Commerce lost by a small margin of two or three points. Harrington and Tougias were the best players for the hoop squad and received acknowledgment for their excellent work by being picked for most of the All-City teams. About fifty boys reported at the initial session, when Coach Relyea called for prospects. After many weeks of practice, Coach Relyea moulded his combination of Ugolint and Morisi at guards, Harrington at center, and Lucas and Tougias at for- wards. Yvon became a member of the squad after he had recuperated from an injury received in football. The squad suffered another set-back when Ted Scibelli, a prospect for the varsity squad, couldn’t get his parents’ consent to play ball. In their first game, the team lost to Hopkins Academy due to a scoreless fourth period. The fourth period “jinx” seemed to have a fatal hold on the squad, for Commerce dropped contest after contest because they didn’t score in this period. Their greatest triumphs were over Trade as the squad beat the Beavers twice: 37-35 and 27-24. Harrington and Tougias paced the team in these victories. One fact can be stated for the Relyeamen: they were always fighting, and gave every opponent a terrific battle. OUR GAMES—IN THE BLEACHERS Top—A tense moment!

Then they traveled up to Turners Falls to hand the Western Massachusetts cham- Many catastrophies joined forces to drench Chief Myers’ hopes for the Crimson baseball season, when a rain-beaten, muddy diamond prevented him from taking the boys out in prepara- tion for their first game. The dampness was troubie in itself, but Chief woefully realized that Tom Fahey, veteran hurler of several campaigns and mainstay of this year’s mound staff, was over the schoolboy eligibility age and would be unable to play. Bob Eisman, also a hurler, had to hang up his spikes because of a broken arm which he had received during practice. TEAM Has MAny HOoLpovers As holdovers, the team had Loader, Cristofori, and Festa patrolling the outfield. The infield burden was carried by William “Sonny” Turner along with Gene Broadbent, Al Jarisch, and Norm Tippett. For pitchers, Commerce had Gene McCarthy, Walt Niemczyk, and Lou Cocchi. TURNERS FALLS DEFEATED The Commerce tradition of trampling down its leaders pions a setback. This, in the minds of most students, was its most important victory. The team with three wins and five defeats finished third in the interschool league with a .375 average. AWARDS ARE GIVEN At the close of the baseball season, Chief Myers presented the following boys on the team with their letters: Major, William Young, Captain; Gene Broadbent; Louis Cocchi; Harvey Cristofori; Richard Emerson; Joseph Festa; John Fitzgerald; Louis Galavotti, Manager; Alfred Jarisch; Wil- liam Loader; Gene McCarthy; Walter Niemczyk; Sarkis Piligian, Manager; Norman Tippett; William Turner; and Donald Yvon; Minor, John Donovan; James Frank; Gerald Girard; William Garrod; Peter Hoontis; Steve Krol; Joseph Lucas; Frank Mazza; Kenneth Smith; Sidney Way; Robert Warren, Assistant Manager; and William Russell.

Fred Winkley, RELYEA TAKES OVER TENNIS When Curley Relyea resumed his coaching duties last spring, the outlook was not very bright. There was only one remaining veteran, Fred Winkley; and very few new boys had come out for practise. Finally the team was compelled to play with but four boys, whereas a squad should consist of from six to eight participants. FINAL SCORES The standings were as follows: Classical, first; Technical, second; Cathedral, third; Trade, fourth; and Commerce, fifth. AWARDS MADE Mr. G.

With these two sports revived once more, there was never a lull in the program of sport activities in Commerce. COMMERCE TAKES FOURTH PLACE The final standings of the interschool track meet at Blunt Park, the first of its kind in ten years, found Technical High School the winner with 60 points; Clas- sical second, 301 ,; Cathedral third, 8; Commerce fourth, 71 4; and Trade fifth with three. In the half mile, Shepherd of Commerce placed fourth. Dabakis was third in the 120- yard low hurdles. In the 12- lb. shot-put Regali was sec- ond, and in the half-mile re- lay Commerce placed third with the aid of Hickman, Setian, Kaplan, and Rollins.

This fairly new form of dance is one of the most beneficial of hobbies. grace, body control, and a chance at original composition. It imparts Beside the regular schooltime classes, a few girls so liked this means of self-expres- sion that they formed a club under the careful instruction of Miss Bessie L. Fisher. The group has worked hard, and the result of their earnestness has been several well-received recitals. Jont, 1B) HORSE FANS RIDE AGAIN The Girls’ Riding Club, newly organized in 1939, met early last fall at the Agawam Riding Stable. Every Friday, until there was snow on the ground, the group rode for an hour, with Miss Bessie Fisher and Miss Alleen Hills in charge. Beginners, as well as experienced riders, were included, and instructed by Miss Irene Lussier, a special teacher. Membership was open to all girls.

SOFTBALE When our instructors first sug- gested softball, the girls were skep- tical. “What? Softball for girls?” However, after a few practices, the participants began to alter their opinions. Soon a team was formed, and then the different classes or- ganized. Because softball, like baseball, is a highly competitive sport, it calls for quick thought as well as movement. Yes, girls play softball, and love it. Notice any picnic where Com- merce pupils are assembled, and watch who wins the softball com- petitions. Boys, and teachers as well, must watch out for their lau- rels now! Ask Mr. Williams (pictured above) what he thinks about it. ALT f 106 J GIRLS’ CHAMPION SOCCER TEAM Although the interschool competition of girls’ sports is not so publicly known as is the boys’, the Com- merce girls’ soccer team of Forest Park is proud of having been named cham- pions as a result of defeat- ing Technical, Trade, and Classical. Much of the credit goes to an excep- tionally good forward line. The outstanding players are Elaine Plouff, Audrey Darby; Ida Ballatore, Laura Whitaker, Hilda Cumming, and Louise Butterfield. These girls were awarded a letter. GirL_s ARE DIVIDED Due tothe distances between Blunt and Forest Park, the Commerce girls are divided according to their nearness to either park...) The.

Commerce was represented FINAL GAME To conclude the entire soccer season, the two park teams, composed of girls from all schools, competed in a final game. This year’s score resulted in a win for Blunt Park. The snapshot at the right shows an exhibit “play” for the camera man. by ten players, an unusually large number, for the Forest Park group. PRACTICE Days Under the supervision of Miss Fisher and Miss Jeanne Jandreau, every Monday and Friday before the games were started, the girls practiced handling sticks, passing, drib- bling, and stopping the ball. This was done for the benefit of newcomers. MIXED TEAMS Hockey, among the various high schools, is more or less informal as compared with soccer. Instead of competition between the four high schools, the girls play, “just for fun,” with mixed teams. Nevertheless, excitement results, because the teams usually are evenly matched.

BASKETBALL CHAMPIONS Trouncing Classical, Tech- nical, sand) Tradey bys over whelming scores, the Com- merce girls emerged the victors for the interschool championship. The crimson girl hoopsters took the meas- ure of Classical 28-16, Tech- nical 45-6, and Trade 42-11. The following girls should be given credit for their ex- cellent basketball ability: Bet- ty Manazer, Lucie Cardin, and Mary Kennedy as for- wards with Iva Hogan as a capable substitute; and Viola Saccamando, Louise Butter- field, and Carol Edmunds playing very consistent games at guard, Betty Holenko and Roslyn Heap were the subs for these three. INTERCLASS BASKETBALL This interclass season was the most exciting session of games ever experienced in the history of our girls’ basket- ball. Every game was packed with teeming excitement, for each team was not only very well organized, but knew various trick plays of its own. The XIIB team came out on top with eight wins, one loss, and one tie. Here comes the ball! Nicky Capuano makes the winning basket. [ 108 } FENCING COMES TO COMMERCE At the first mention of fencing last Febru- ary, twelve girls flocked eagerly to the gymna- sium. Since that time, every Wednesday after- noon a professional in- structor has brought necessary equipment and has given fencing lessons. All participants have been enthusiastic over this sport, and have shown themselves to be very capable be- ginners. Alexa Ken- nis and Margaret Clark have displayed the greatest talent. SKATING FANS HAVE FUN, TOO! Isn’t it amazing to see all the extra activities in which high school students can participate? Now there is roller skating to gay organ music at the nearby Rialto Rink. All who undertook this sport enjoyed the relaxa- tion and variation it offered. Many envious glances, it was reported, constantly were directed on the cute figure of Miss Hills, who had charge of skating, as she cut the Q corners with the greatest of ease. f 109 J Above—Fencers call this position “the lunge.” Left—Pauline Coulson, Alexa Kennis, Virginia Fravesi, Celia Denton, Jeanne Ollari, Clarice Chica, Marilyn Collins, Margaret Clark, and Louise Butterfield are our fencers.

GIRLS CHALLENGE BOYS No sooner had co-educational recreation come to a close on April 17 than plans were discussed for next year. The purpose of this new activity is to bring our boys and girls together in healthful, social sports. PAVORIGELGAME'S Badminton, ping-pong, deck tennis, volley ball, shuffle board, and bowling were the outstanding activities, due to the constant challenge tournaments. COMMERCE VALENTINE FRESHIES Do you remember all the red ap- parel on “Freshie Day,” February 14? Valentine’s Day received a very spirited reception this year, for the freshman girls, under the upper class jurisdiction, had to wear as much red clothing as pos- sible: large red bows around their wrists, waists, ankles, and on their heads; red nail polish and lipstick; red aprons; one red and one white stocking; and a large sign labeled “Freshie.” Asi @9ieimastoman eventful “Freshie Day,” the G.
