The DRURY CLASS BCDOK Ein illvmnrg Elizabeth 0D'5hPzt Softly as the twilight closes o'er us God called you to His heavenly home, The loving heart that beat within your bosom Mfas stilled as all your tasks on earth were done. But as a flower sleepeth through the winter To bloom again more lovely in the spring. So shall your life, a treasured memory, Awake and bloom in our true love again. Each deed, each word, each kindly thought you gave us Are ours forever, to cherish, to hold dear. A rlfnr' Grcmu' 1939 ww 1 1 , J 1939 DONALD W. FOWLER, A.B., M.A. H.-XRRY PRATT JAMES M.

How are you? Dortor.- Hello, General Lindquist! It certainly has been a long time since I've seen you. I have often thought of you and the wonderful times we used to have at high school in the old home town. General: It already seems like old times to be chatting with you again, and since you mentioned school, I think it would be a splendid idea if we reversed the hands of time and returned once again to those happy days at good old Drury. In September, IQ35, as the rain poured down in torrents, we entered Drury. Can't you vividly remember how humble, shy, and lonely we felt while we aimlessly roamed those spacious halls for those Hrst few days, and were often misled by our lordly elders, the Seniors? However, in spite of our timidity, we soon gained the respect of the upper classmen through the able guidance of our oflicers. Wfe elected jean Malcolm, presidentg Orlando Farinon, vice-presidentg and Tony Pisano, secretary and treasurer. It was during our freshman year that Mr. Del Negro succeeded Mr. I-Iosley as coach ol' the football and baseball teams, and that Drury defeated Adams in the traditional hard-fought football game. The opera, Martha , performed by Drury students, was great enough to make any Metropolitan star turn green with envy. The upper classes had to step lively for we soon participated on all organized teams and in all activities. The summer vacation having rapidly passed, we returned to our dear Alma Mater not as blunt, humble freshmen, but as genuine, sophisticated sophomores. Our officers were Kimbell Berry, president and .lean Malcolm, vice-president. At the end of the first semester Mr. Fowler replaced Mr. McGrory as Principal, the latter becoming Superintendent of Schools. 147 li.-21939 The basketball team. winner of the city championship, had the honor of participating in the tournament at Worcester, and, oh yes, remember how Drury beat Adams again in football? The student-body, under the capable direction of Mr. Chambers, put on a minstrel show which was very entertaining. After the usttal summer vacation, we returned as capable and dashing juniors, determined to make a name for ourselves scholastically as well as in the field of sports. This year we chose Lafayette Sprague, president: Herbert Gordon, vice-presidentg and Sybil Trottier. secretary and treasurer. Again we were victorious in the annual Drury-Adams football clash, and our basketball team, city champions, took part in the semi-finals in the tournaments at Wlorcester. The usual interclass schedule, consisting of touch football, baseball, field hockey. basketball, track, and tennis was successfully carried out, our class winning the championship. The -Iunior Prom and Senior Reception were certainly made a great success through the leadership of our ofiicers who were assisted by Miss O'Hara, class adviser. Another vacation having come and gone, we retraced our steps to that beautiful school on the hill for the last time as proud Seniors, resolved to satisfy all obligations. XfVe had experienced many happy moments during our short stay at Drury, and consequently greatly regretted to arrive so soon at the final milestone in our high school career. Our ofiicers were Herbert Gordon, president, Kimbell Berry, vice-president: and .lean Malcolm, secretary and treasurer who, under the proficient guidance of Mr. Fowler and Miss Collier, the class advisers. accomplished all duties and met all problems successfully. Upon reaching school we learned with great regret of the resignation of Miss O'Hara and Miss Shea, teachers who at all times proved to be true friends and advisers to all who sought their wise counsel, and by whose magnetic personalities. great dispositions, and exemplar characters we benefited greatly. The vacancies in the faculty were ably hlled by Miss Monahan, Mr. Royal. and Mr. Howard who quickly won the respect' and admiration of the entire student-body. The senior class play entitled Christopher Bean , directed by Mr. Royal, revealed some of the best talent that has ever graced old Drury's stage. The Senior Prom certainly was a gay affair. In january, 1939, the School mourned the loss of one of its best teachers, Miss O'Shea who was held in great esteem by both faculty and stuclent-body. She was at all times faithful to her work, sympathetic, jolly, and cheerful-the type of a teacher one respects and cherishes forever. As the end of our high-school days drew near. the Senior Reception and Banquet were carried out in an appropriate fashion. Wie graduated in caps and gowns, the girls wearing white and the boys wearing blue, which created a very pleasing sight at the graduation exercises, after which we marched out of Drury's auditorium not as students, but as alumni setting out alone into the vast, cold world. fi1'7IFTflf.' It certainly has been a great pleasure to have met you again and relive those good old days. ' llnrfmg- Yes. hasn't it been wonderful? I feel fifty years younger already. Au Revoir. Priscilla E.

Hartley 55 li-1939 THE LATE CHRISTOPHER BEAN The scene oi' Drury's most recent dramatic effort is a small New England village. One ol the most respectable of the town's families is that of the physician, Dr. Haggett, his wife, and two daughters, Ada and Susan: that is. they are respectable until a Mr. Tallant, purported lriend of the late boarder, Christopher Bean, poverty-stricken artist, tells them that he will pay lor Chris's paintings, just for old times' sake. Then, with the exception of Susan, who is busy being in love with another painter, XVarren Creamer, the whole family turns to deceit in their fortune-hunting, especially when Dr. Haggett learns from Rosen, another aft dealer, that the paltry sum offered by Tallant is only a fraction of the true worth of the paintings. All through the play Abby, maid of all work and erstwhile friend of Chris Bean, helps by her unrullled placidity to keep the excited family together until the last minute, when she gets ready to leave for Chicago. At this time the house is overrun with critics and dealers, each trying to help the doctor to think where the TCSI of the paintings are. XVhen Abby discloses a pile ol' a dozen or more ol' Bean's paintings, the bargaining begins again. I A happy ending is reached when Abby proves that she is Mrs. Christopher Bean, and a Mr. Davenport. honest art critic ol' the Times , assures her that she owns the paintings. Dr. Haggett, realizing that his castles in the air have crumbled. surrenders the pictures to Abby. She is not lorced to go to Chicago to help her brother's children, and so can remain to ellect the marriage ol' XfVarren and Susan. So we will go a step further than saying, All's well that end's well . and say. since our Play ended well, the all in this case was a tremendous success. 56 99 1 9 3 9 55EEEE-- BaskeTbaH SENIOR BASKE'l'HAl,I, LETTER MEN nge Clhzunpugnc, fcllflfllflly, Harry Brown, RICIIQIYLI Emery, jackie qloncs, Rudolph lic-ncclclli Gordon Holmes, I-lowurd Poricr. fC0-lIIlllI1Ig'l'V.SD 59 1939 Drury Drury Drury Drury Drury Drury Drury Drury Drury Drury Drury Drury Drury Drury Drury Drury Drury Drury Drury Drury Drury April May May May May May May june june june june Athletic Schedule FOOTBALL SCHEDULE Catlietlral ol Springlieltl r- 0 0 I9 0 O ll 28 25 23 -ll 22 14 25 17 40 lb 30 31 37 Bennington NVilliamstown Sl. joseph Wittslieldj Pittsfield Farmington Adams BASKETBALL SCHEDULE Williams QStockhritlgej Bennington Dalton XVilliamstown Mount Pleasant ol' Schenectady St. joseph QPittsfieldj St. joseph fNorth Adamsj Adams Pittsfield XVilliamstown St. joseph QNorth Adamsj Pittsfield St. joseph Qlfittsfieldj Adams BASEBALL SCHEDULE - 1939 Drury at Williamstown Drury at St.j0seph's Drury at Pittsfield Bennington at Drury Dalton at Drury St.joseph's at Drury Adams at Drury Drury at Adams Pittsfield at Drury Drury at Bennington Drury at Dalton 60 r- 1939il Officers SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS President Herbert Gordon Iylff'-Pl't'Sl!Il'Ilf.
