Tlie passing of the Class of Twenty-Two marks an epoch in the history of P. H. S„ more so than has the departure of any other Senior Class, for. as we go. we see the end of Mr. Hosmer’s term of service as principal. What he has done for the advancing of high school education in Pawtucket we. as students, cannot comprehend, hut some of those who studied under him, passed on, and returned to teach with him know that the amount of his service is incalculable. Therefore, we, the Class of ’Twenty-Two, take this opportunity of expressing our appreciation of his great service so nobly done, our regrets that he is leaving the school, and our sincere wishes for his success in the future. 1922 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 3 THE FACULTY HIGH SCHOOL ELMER S.

Judged by what we’ve done, not what we say, Spent or misspent, our span of fleeting years, O’er the dead past we waste no futile tears. Hail then the future; to the past farewell; For us no mournful song, no passing bell. As we today. 0 Class of Twenty-Two, Turn from our work here done to tasks anew. By precept taught, and nature’s open book. Be ours the upward, ever onward look: Assured that often truest merit lies In earnest effort though we miss the prize. As ever on the path of learning leads. To meet the urgent call of human needs. Whatever may betide or good or ill, Life’s constant school shall find us students still. 1922 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 7 THE CLASS AGNES SIGRII) ELIZABETH ANDERSON (“Nessie”) Motto: “Laugh and grow thin.” Agnes or Nessie as she is called by her large number of friends, has been the joy of the teachers in the commercial department, for she has been a fine student during the four years she has attended P. H. S. She is a quiet girl, but well liked, and has a smile for everyone. Her favorite studies are shorthand and typewriting. Next year Agnes is undecided whether to enter the business world or attend a business college. ROSS ANDREW (“Ross”) Motto: “Know thyself.” Ross is one of those science sharks, who have loaded their course with such unnecessaries as “Trig.” “Chem” and Frog.” The funny part of it is that Ross certifies in them all. Ross went to Camp Sims and learned how to row a boat, shoot a gun. and read “log” tables. He is extremely interested in a pretty Junior, who sits in Room 17. (We don’t blame him a whole lot either.) Next year, Ross will take up chemistry at Brown. Good luck, Ross: on to Brown. JAMES MAGNER BARRY (“Jeemy ” “Jimmy,” “Jim”) Motto: “Have a good lime, but be a good boy.” SECRETARY OF ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION (4), CLEANER (3) (4), CLASS BOOK COMMITTEE (4), CHAIRMAN OF MINSTREL SHOW COMMITTEE (4), TRACK TEAM (3) (4) “Jimmy” has been the mainstay of our track team for two years. He can pick up the “spuds” in a potato race faster than any other fellow in school. His work on the editorials for the Gleaner has been excellent. He helped put over, as chairman of the Minstrel Show Committee, the biggest show' in years. As a ghost in “Great Caesar’s Ghost” he did well. His studies have all been certified. He is a favorite of the teachers (due to his fine w'ork and sunny good humor I. His favorite study, so he says, is mathematics, but we have a sneaking suspicion that he considers dancing a much more elevating study. 8 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 1922 HORACE HENRY BARKER. Motto: ‘'Eat. drink and be merry for tomorrow we die” LOCALS (3), SCIENTIFIC NOTES (4), CLASS BOOK COMMITTEE ( 1 , SENIOR SUPPER COMMITTEE ( ) Horace is one of the math sharks, but unlike Eatough, he never mentions infinity except when speaking of the number of his dates. He spends much of his time in Chem class where lu either dyes or tries to kill the rest of the class. He is the editor of the Scientific Notes and freely discusses such scientific subjects as: ’If some bird mixed glyecrin with H-S04 would it blow the J_L?” His special task in French class is to translate the love scenes. He works afternoons, dances nights, apparently never studies and drags down 5’s. Next year will find him at Brown preparing to be an engineer. Good luck. Horace. RUTH ELSIE BAR ROW CLOUGH Motto: “Every day has a new beginning.” Ruth trails from Darlington, and is one of our best liked Darlington is the home of a great many of the clever studfffts of Pawtucket high, so is it any wonder? She has “some s dwit shorthand and typewriting and thinks there is nothing likiQheVj'Shc is a dandy good sport, and is altogether a fine P. H. S. lyocfoet'. Room 26 is quite lively when Ruth shows up. Next vtfaj) slirf Wpects to enter an office where we know that she will make g Vidjdw raise our reputation for “speedy typists.” j RLOW (“Cynthia”! anilh and be happy.” For four strenuous years Cynthia has migrated from the wilds of Attleboro to be with us. Evidently she believes in the proverb, “Children should be seen and not heard.” for we never hear Cynthia except in a class room. When a teacher is tired of hearing “not prepared,” she calls on Miss Barlow and Cynthia comes forth with such a flow of knowledge that we marvel how she does it. Cynthia is very fond of music and she spends many evenings at concerts and musical entertainments. She follows her motto to the letter, for we never see her when she isn’t smiling. Cynthia is undecided about what she will do next year, but we feel sure that she will tackle and manage it in her own quiet way. FREDERICK FRANK BERICK (“Freddie”) Motto: “Please, be pleased, and do as you pleased ORCHESTRA Wherever P. H. S. has had any footlight activities the last few years, dramatics, debating, etc., Freddie and his beloved violin have been a very necessary part of the proceedings. He is the boy who calmly stands up alone and. by talented dexterity with the bow, lulls the enemy and audience into a reposeful state in which they will take anything without a murmur. Truly, it’s a great scheme and the credit goes to Freddie. Since his entry to P. H. S. he has been the mainstay of the orchestra and a much applauded part of every program he figures on. Three or four curtain calls are commonplaces in Freddie’s life. Well, as Shakespeare almost wrote, “Talent will out.” Next year the New England Conservatory of Music will rightly claim Frederick. 1922 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 9 ROSE BERICK ( Rose’ ) Motto: “Don't put off till tomorrow what you can Jo today.” This quiet, little girl sits in Room 26. Did we say quiet? Well, looks are deceiving, for when among her friends she’s quite snappv. She claims her outdoor sports are walking and riding, for she just loves the open air. When in school Rose is quite a scholar, study periods being her specialty! Well, it isn't everyone that's so lucky. Next fall we’ll see Rose going into Providence every day to Miss Gibbs Secretarial School where she’ll learn to be a fine secretary for some lucky person. The best o’ luck. Rose. EVELYN MAY BIRCH (“Ev”) Motto: ‘‘God helps them that help themselves.” Who is that pleasant, wavy-haired blonde that sits in Room 26? Why, that’s our dear friend Evelyn. If it wasn’t for her giggle you’d never he aware of her presence, for she is very quiet in school. Her pretty hair is the envy of many of the girls. Almost every time we look at Evelyn she has that engaging smile for you. Everybody likes her, and those who know her, outside of school, say that she is always merry and ready for a good time. Evelyn expects to become a stenographer next year. We are confident that she will be an excellent bookkeeper. Mr. Holden desires her company at his parties after school quite often. We all wish vou success. “Ev.” MABEL ELIZABETH BOYLE (“Mab”) When duly and pleasure crash, let duty go to smash.” “Mab” is the errand girl of Room 26. Whenever Miss Booth has any errands to be done Mabel is the favored one. She is one of those wholehearted girls that you love to see coming, w ith a kind word or a smile for everyone. Judging from her reports, we think she doesn’t live up to her motto, because said reports always have their share of .Vs. English is her favorite study, which verifies the fact that she is a good student. “Mab” isn’t sure about what she is going to do next year, probably she will enter a business college. Whatever you do, “Mab,” we’re certain you’ll be a success. GEORGE LAWRENCE BRADLEY (“Larney,” “Doc,” “Jawn”) Motto: “Eat. drink and be merry, for tomorrow we die.” ASSISTANT MANAGER BASEBALL (3), MANAGER (4) “Here he comes, look out!” “Yea, that’s ‘Larney’ in his Buiek.” He’s a fast boy in the machine and is especially with the girls. You can always find him at any game whispering sweet nothings in some pretty girl s ear, and cheering the team in between times. “Larney’s” favorite study is “jazz” and he practices it in public and private with a certain demure miss. His motto is good and well carried out even if it does embarrass his studies, but as he says: “They don’t count.” Rhode Island State College will claim him next year. Here he hopes to continue his “jazzing” and shaving the passing mark. (6 10 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 1922 RUSSELL STANTON BRAY (“Rut”) FOOTBALL (4), SWIMMING (2) Motto: “Ain’t nature grand.” Everyone is acquainted with Rut, if not because of his activities on the football and swimming teams or in the Boy Scouts, because of his “yard-long” biological terms. His favorite studies are biological sciences, and. desiring to increase his knowledge of bacteria (his favorite), he went out for the swimming and football teams. He at least learned the taste of these bacteria when he “bit the dust ’ on the football field and half-drowned in the Y. M. C. A. Pool. He made his letters, also. Rut says. “Ain’t Nature Grand!” (we wonder if he says this from a biologist’s viewpoint only?). Next year, he intends to enter Brown to prepare for a medical school. We all believe that Rut will become famous for his biological and medical work, for he is undoubtedly talented along that line. So here’s luck, Rut. FLORENCE FRANCES BREED (“Floss” I Motto: “Experience is the greatest teacher.” Miss Florence F. Rreed, Belmont Street. Pawtucket, P. H. S. 22, room 24. Tall, rather thin, dark hair—what? Oh yes, of course, she wouldn’t think of getting anything less than a 5 in Spanish (which by the way, is her favorite study). Independent! Well I guess—no mere man could satisfy her. Her favorite saying is “How do you know”? Needless to say, we don't know, but then one has to bluff a bit once in a while, “Floss.” She is somewhat of a fiddler and will probably cast in her lot with an orchestra some day. Her favorite recreation is lunching at some tea room on cream puffs. Next year she will work in an office for a while until she can start in business for herself, just what it will be. we don’t know, but we wish her luck. JAMES EDWARD BRENNAN. Jr. (“Jim,” “Jimmy,” “Jazbo”) Motto: “Love ’em all, but marry none.” DRAMATIC CAST (3) (4), SWIMMING (4), MEMBER OF CAST IN “CAESAR’S GHOST” (4), SENIOR RECEPTION COMMITTEE (4), MINSTREL SHOW' COMMITTEE (4), END MAN (3) (4), GLEE CLUB (4), CLASS FOOTBALL TEAM (4) Behold! “Jazz” Brennan, the terpischorean wizard of P. H. S. Whenever there is a chance to “trip the light fantastic,” Jimmy can always be found in the middle of the floor, dancing with some good-looking Jane. Besides being a ladies man, Jim is an athlete, and an accomplished actor. He has been very prominent in school aff airs, and is one of the most popular members of our illustrious class, especially with the girls. OSBORNE WESLEY BR1DEN (“Ozzv”) Motto: “Don’t talk about it, do it.” Hail! Our future Y. M. C. A. gymnasium director. If you’ve never seen Briden leading the Business Men’s class on the “gym” floor, you’ve missed it. Although he spent a lot of time at the ,” “Ozzy” managed to find time to certify his way through school. He was one of Mr. Crosby’s “math” sharks and next to this study his favorite was chemistry. He can always be found, after examinations or after reports are out, trying to get Mr. Wolfe to raise a 4+ to a 5—. Next year he will go to Brown and wear a little, er—pardon me. big brown hat. Best wishes, old man, and don’t forget Prof. Murphy’s dancing class. 1922 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 11 LAURA CURTIS BRINTON (“Sweetheart,” “Billy” “Teddy”) Motto: “Always be happy, keep to the right and you'll be all right.” GLEANER BOARD (4), CLASS BOOK COMMITTEE (4) Yes, this is Laura, our talented musician, and a member of the “Bobbed Hair Club.” She can be seen always selling tickets for her recitals, both organ and piano. But all her time is not spent that way. Of course not, for her favorite pastime is “dancing and eating Eskimo pies.” No wonder she likes that very much for “Calvin” and “Ralph” keep her pretty well dated up. Well, where do we stand, boys? In studies Laura prefers music. She also enjoys teaching music and spending much time with her pupils. Next year Laura intends to go to N. E. Conservatory of Music. 4 ALFRED DAVIS BROWN (“Al Motto: “Trust to luck.” CLASS SUPPER COMMITTEE (4) “Al’s” home room is 26. From that knowledge you will deduct that “Al is in select company. Although “Al” is of a quiet, thoughtful nature, he is one of the best. He is ever ready to “step out” or “come across” as the call may be. He is a loyal supporter of the teams and has an opinion on all subjects. His favorite study is architectural drawing, and the nifty dog-houses and hen-coops he turns out are works of art. His houses are also rated high. Why, on one house he even put French windows on the bathroom! But, outside of that “Al” can get down to business and turn out worthy work. Next vear he will be found at Northeastern. ANNIS MAY BROWN (“May”) Motto: “Great hopes make great men.” May is one of our young artists. She is particularly talented in art and we never stop wondering al the results she accomplishes. Needless to say Applied Design is her favorite subject. However, her reports show a shower of 5’s in all her studies. May “choo choos” down from Cumberland bright and early Monday mornings. We didn’t know the fame of our school had spread so far. Her bright and sunny nature chases away the blues and draws forth a hearty laugh. May expects to enter the Rhode Island School of Design and become a future Raphael. Go to it, May! EDITH ENID BROWLN (“Jack ) Motto: “If one would gain a high position, he must dare.” Who is that dark-eyed blonde up in the corner of Room 26 that is always talking? Why, that's our Edith, commonly called “Jack.” “Jack” with her chum May for four years have come all the way from Cumberland to attend our far-famed school. Applied Design is “Jack’s” favorite subject and she is very proficient in it. She also excels in the millinery class and is always flaunting a new creation to dazzle our eyes. In September “Jack” expects to leave home and Mother and go all the way to Boston into the Massachusetts General Hospital, to train to be a nurse. Sometime in the near future, we’ll hear her patients saying, “I don’t want to get well, I'm in love with a beautiful nurse.” We’re with you, “Jack,” it’s a wonderful vocation. 12 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 1922 MARJORIE BROWN Motto: “Smile and make friends.” In Room 26, with all the other Browns, sits our tall, dark-eyed, lively “Margie.” She likes all her teachers very much and will hate to leave school. She has been working (? ) in a Providence Restaurant. We are willing to wager that the little Chinese boys step around to the “peppy” music she plays. Her favorite study is French, and her favorite pastime is dancing. Her future is undecided hut she may study music after leaving P. H. S. Well. we wish vou the best of luck in your choi LOUISE FRANCES BRO|(fNlNG (“Louie” Motto: Better late han never.” Seventy-five miles of fun! Louise is one of the greatest lovers of a good time that we can find in the whole senior class, whether on the “g- m” or dance floor, in the lunch or class room. And we re not surprised that “Louie” is popular among both sexes when we notice those mighty attractive eves in addition to her amiable disposition. From her motto, one would say that she was in the habit of keeping one writing. Well, perhaps she is, but everybody admits that she certainly is worth waiting for. A girl like “Louie” can’t help but be a success in life and she deserves all she gets. JAMES EDWARD BURNS (“Jim ” “Jip”) Motto: “Better late than never. BASEBALL (3), FOOTBALL (4) Here he is! “Jip,” the boy of many talents. Fiddler, erstwhile student, baseball player, endman and end. The only occasion on which Jim ever allowed himself to break his motto and be on time, was when an opposing back tried to round his end. On time? You bet. But on any other occasion? Say. he’s given Mr. Crosby writer’s cramp. Although Jip likes being a “Pullman Porter Man he s not m ch of a “Ladies’ Man,” but we feel pretty certain that lie'll find one that will capture him. someday. Good luck, Jip. ALBINA CAMPBELL (“Al”) Motto: “Live. love, learn, and laugh.19 “Miss Campbell, FI! see you at 2:05: These are the familiar words that greet Albina almost every day. for she is the bane of her teachers’ existence. If “Al” is in a class room her presence is usually felt in one way or another. U. S. History is her favorite study because she can have more fun in that period. Her favorite sport is teasing her unsuspecting classmates who are totally deceived by her meek face. In the lunch room she has a trick of making everybody laugh when the have a mouthful of sandwich, the result is a general choking party which greatlv amuses “Al.” “Al’ lives up to her motto with a vengeance, although we are not as certain about the learn part of it. She expects to enter R. I. C. E. in the fall, and we are sure she will laugh her way through R. I. C. E. as she did through P. H. S. i HELEN DORIS CAMPBELL Motto: “Never trouble trouble, 'till trouble troubles you!” Who is that tall, graceful blonde in Room 26? Why, that’s “Dot!” her hair is the envy of many girls at P. H. S., because of her “permanent” wave. Doris is very fond of music and her favorite pastime is dancing. Those who dance with her once, don’t forget to ask her for another before the evening is over. Doris’s future is undecided, but she may become a “stenog.” Her favorite study is shorthand and she excels in typewriting also. “Dot” was one of the (lashes who won a Remington Card Case for speed in typewriting. We arc confident she will lie successful in whatever she undertakes. May much luck he yours, “Dot!” ALICE AUGUSTA CARROLL (“Bobby,” “Al”) Motto: “Keep Srpiling.” Alice is the little blonde who occupies the corner back seat beside the windows in Room 26. Look at her picture! Just like her, isn’t it? “Bobby” is always ready to give you that winsome smile. Her motto is very appropriate indeed! Twenty-nine minutes past eight, finds “Bobby” combing her wavy bobbed hair. However, it’s nothing in “Bobby’s life if she is late. Let Mr. Crosby do the worrying. “Al’s’ favorite study is American History (she sticks to facts) and her favorite pastime is dancing. Next year “Al” intends to go to R. I. C. E. and then to Ire a teacher. I et’s go back to grammar school, boys. MILDRED ALICE CLEGG (“Did”) Motto: “Sure arul Steadfast. They say good things come in small packages—that’s “Did.” But she balances her lack of inches by her abundance of pep. She’s a dandy all round sport and just loves to go to football games. She doesn’t mind trying her hand (feet rather I at jazz or varsity once in a while, and she can’t resist canoeing on the Pawtuxet. Who with? Oh well, that’s telling! She is particularly partial to the Scotch and blondes. Her favorite studies are applied design and Spanish. She also does quite a bit of millinery work on the side. Next year she intends to spend her leisure hours at the Rhode Island College of Education learning how to teach the youngsters their A. B. C’s. DOROTHY CHASE COBB (“Dot.” “Dotty,” “Dody”) Motto: “The way to gain a friend is to be one.” If everyone had Dotty’s disposition, this old world would lie a better place, for she is one of the jolliest, peppiest, finest, truest girls that ever brightened our halls. Last year there was deep gloom when she retired from the active life of P. H. S., but now we rejoice that she , is back to graduate with the glorious class of 1922. She’s a dandy sport and gives as a list of favorite amusements: basketball, football, tennis, skating, skiing, fancy diving, and driving a truck. Whew! “Dody would rather go to ride with “Napoleon” than studv anv day, I and who can blame her? She gets along pretty well in high school -U„ :� u..if Holvoke anvway. It PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 1922 © % EDW ARD CYRUS COLE (“Ed ’ “Piggy,” “Anthracite”) Motto: “Let your conscience be your guide but—” CLASS PRESIDENT (3), VICE PRESIDENT, A. A. (3), MANAGER FOOTBALL (4), ASSISTANT MANAGER (3), VICE PRESIDENT LYCEUM (3), PRESIDENT (4), EDITOR-IN-CHIEF CLASSBOOK (4), EDITOR-IN-CHIEF GLEANER (4), ASSISTANT EDITOR (3), CASTS “bachelor hall” (3), “two crooks” “green stockings” “the charm school” (4) “Ed is one of the grand exalted of our school. He has worked much more than any other for its growth and improvement. In every school activity he has been prominent, and his driving power and initiative have always been back of every movement. Editor of the best Gleaner on record; chief contributor and executive of the Class Book; president and esteemed speaker of the Lyceum; star merman in a champion team; executive of the Junior class; vice-president of the Dramatic Society; actor of remarkable ability; manager of the football team; vice-president of the Athletic Association in his Junior year; minstrel show committee member and witty end man; brilliant scholar, social center, and a brainy political man. In all these things he has excelled, 'io is it any wonder that he is one of P. H. S.’s most respected leaders? Taking his word for it, he hates each study equally, but he has certified in Latin for four years, without grinding, and has topped the scholarship lists each year. The loudest cheers, the best of best wishes, and the highest hopes for new fields conquered will accompany “Ed when he goes to Dartmouth. BYRON FORREST COOK (“Cookie,” “Bike,” “Cherub”) Motto: “Our lives are what we make them. CLASS FOOTBALL (4 I Cast your eyes upon the noble brow of “Cookie.” He came to us a nice, shy, retiring young man, but age makes changes in us all. Now his pockets are plenteous with pictures, powder boxes and pins of the various members of the fair sex. who have fallen before those wonderful eyes and that wavy hair. “Cherub’s” favorite study is chemistry, and he sharks this with ease. His other vocation is “varsitying” around the halls seeking new material, but there’s a scarcity, so he goes to Brown for his company. “Cookie” made the Senior football team and showed a little class in that. Next year he intends to go to R. I. S. C. and continue breaking test tulies while studying chemical engineering. ISABEL JANET COUGHLIN (“Bel”) Motto: “Laugh, love all and be happy. DRAMATICS (3) This snappy looking little maiden sits in Room 26. She is another member of the “Bobbed Hair Club.” “Bel” is always seen walking through the gay halls of the P. H. S. with a smile on her face. She certainly lives up to her motto. Her favorite study is English. Bel likes dramatics very much, having been a member of the cast of the “District Attorney.” Next year Isabel intends to laugh her way through R. I. C. E. The best of luck from the class go with you! 1922 hF PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 15 LOUIS LEO CORENBAUM (“Louie,” “Coke”) Motto: “Gone but not forgotten.” We wonder whether he means those “lectures,” the hours he spends (? I at his homework, or his beloved pipe. Coke’s pipe certainly was a pal to him, and it was a sad day when it disappeared. We wonder who got it, and what the thief will do with it. His favorite study is chemistry. He certainly does enjoy it. He just loves—breaking test tubes. Next year, he intends to enter Brown to take up a course in engineering and some day we will no doubt hear of Coke as an engineer. ALICE SYLVIA CRAWFORD (“Ike and “Alley”) Motto: “Look for the silver lining. “the charm school” (41, “prom” committee (3), CHAIRMAN RECEPTION “Alice where art thou”? Well, not very far away, let’s hope. She is apt to be so quiet that you would hardly know she was there, that is until you know her, for Alice is far from quiet to her friends, and she has a great many of them. She has two hobbies that everyone knows her for and they are automobiling and attending games. Alice is quite as interesting as the others and we don’t blame her in the least, no one could. Her favorite subject is applied design and she is one of Miss Bradley’s prize pupils. Many the student who wishes that he might do Latin as easily as she makes rings and other jewelry. “Alley” is another honored member of the sopranos whose seat is all reserved in (lie front row on Tuesdays. The “gang” simply couldn't get along without her. Next year she expects to enter the School of Decorative Design, Boston, and we know she will be successful there. RUTH ELIZABETH CURRAN (“Ruth”) Motto: “Do it yesterday.” Ruth is one of the best-natured girls that ever lived, anyone will vouch for that. She is never seen without her pink vanity case, pocket size. She is a perfect shark in math; she even talks in algebra. A small army of 5’s will speak for chemistry which she pursues in a rubber apron. We do not know what she “does yesterday,” probably her favorite study, French. Next fall Ruth is going to pack her grip, not forgetting shock absorbers for room mate, and journey down to Kingston. After four years of intensive study, she will be a domestic science teacher and revolutionize all methods for teaching girls how to boil water. ANNE ELIZABETH CULLEN ( Betty”) Yup, (his is Betty! She has no favorite study, she likes ’em all. No motto, either, queer girl! But Betty loves dancing, and Titian-haired males, and “keen numbers.” Betty has about the longest name around town. Anne Elizabeth is just the starter. Big-hearted Betty. She loves athletics and supports P. H. S. loyally. Betty’s a good pusher, if the weather is good, eh, “Bett”? She is a member of the I-Can-Eat-The-Most Club but gets left frequently because she does more talking than eating. “B’s” a good scholar, manages to keep off the Permanent List some way, and is very proficient at all themes. When you’re looking for one good ole sport, here’s Betty! ■n HIGH SCHOO (V 1922 GERTRUDE REGINA CULLEN (“Cert,” “Reggie”) Motto: “On with the dance.” CLEANER BOARD (4), CLASS BOOK COMMITTEE, SENIOR RECEPTION- COMMITTEE Room 26 is justly noted for its intellectuals. Prominent on the roster and among the members is the name, and person, of “Gert” Cullen. Major among Gert’s studies is chemistry. She is taking the “heavy stuff” in order to enter R. I. C. E. some bright A. M. next Fall. In order to get in a little preliminary practice, you might say “roadwork.” “Gert”’ has developed as her favorite pastime the highly munificent job, position rather, of pushing baby carriages. But, with all this, they don’t come any livelier. A glance at her motto confirms this statement, for never is she without the tickets for sale or knowledge of a “keen time.” GEORGE HERBERT DECKER. JR. (“Sam,” “Junior,” “Herbie”) Motto: “Don’t get hooked. Stay even.” ASSISTANT MANAGER SWIMMING (3), MANAGER (4), CLEE CLUB (4) “I’ve got a date on.” “Sam” has had to say that so often in his last two years that he considered it for a motto. His correspondence rivals that of a matinee idol and we know that it isn’t all business. “Sam” was a very efficient assistant and a better manager of our mermen, he piloted to the championship. This illustrious leader, and Glee Club member, has a very sweet I ? ) voice which we infer was developed while serenading some beautiful brunette. “Herbie” is chem crazy and he rivals even, “Herbie,” Sr., in his astounding knowledge of the qualities of CS2. EDITH RITA DELAIVE (“Edie”) Motto: “Beware, be wise, be good” Here s “Edie, ’ that attractive girl of Room 26, afflicted with the terrible disease known as “gigglitis.” Evidently she doesn’t believe in the maxim, “Children should l e seen and not heard,” for we always know she is coming before we see her. “Edie” is full of push and puts her marks across with a vim. Shorthand is her favorite study and that’s no snap either, don’t let anybody fool you! When it comes to good times “Edie” is right there, and we all agree that she is some dancer. “Edie” is undecided about her future. Perhaps she’ll be an asset to some business office, more likely to some tired business man. ALICE RITA DONAHUE (“Al”) Motto: “To come to school on time is joy. But to come prepared is ecstasy.” Judging from the first line of “Al’s” motto, we should say that she never felt joyful because her arrival is usually breathlessly accomplished at 8:31. In spite of all this “Al” is a very sunny-tempered girl. She is always laughing. In fact, she is a charter member of the Giggle Club of Room 26. Her favorite study is applied design at which she has been very busy these past years, charming and making charms for the male members of P. H. S. She intends to go to Rhode Island College of Education but we think that she’ll be running a dancing school down town some day. PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 1922 17 ROY DONATOS. Roy has been four years preparing to meet Jack Dempsey. He has cleaned up all the heavy-weights in the school, and several not in the school. Roy’s favorite study is History in which class he certainly shines. Next year he will probably enter the business world. The class wishes him the best of luck in obtaining the heavy-weight crown. j) C , MARY ZITA DOORLEY (“Doodles”) Motto: “Eat and grow thin.” Mary is the cherub-like girl who sits in the front seat ot tlie nrst row in Room 26. and who comes in every other morning at 8:31, or later, with a look of innocence, which says: Late again? Honestly, I couldn’t help it this morning. Mary is gay, blithesome, and full of fun. and her smile is very winning. She is popular with both students and teachers. In fact, the latter like her so much that very often they request the pleasure of her company until 2:30. History is her favorite study, but she seems to greatly enjoy her study period. Next year the R. I. College of Education will be honored by Mary’s presence. JOHN DUFFY (“Duff,” “Mother”) BASEBALL (3), FOOTBALL (4), TRACK (1) (2) (3) (4), CAPTAIN (4), HOCKEY (41, RECEPTION COMMITTEE (4) “Mother” has been a stellar performer on practically every athletic team in the school, and is a four-letter man, he and Potter being the only ones in the school to have this honor. For four years “Duff” has been a star on the track team, and has collected numberless medals and ribbons. “Duff” is good-natured, agreeable and very popular; but he does not like to appear too much in the limelight, and blushes like a school girl when complimented for his attainments. John is a good student, but his favorite period is his fourth (study) period. Next year “Duff” intends to go to R. I. State College. The good wishes of the class follow him. HARRY EATOUGH ( Harry”) Motto: “The more the merrier, but not with homework.” BUSINESS MANAGER OF CLEANER (4), ASSISTANT BUSINESS MANAGER (3), MANAGER (3), CLASS BOOK COMMITTEE (4), ONE OF FIRST FIVE IN SCHOLARSHIP (4) It might be implied from Harry’s motto that he is inclined to lag in his homework, but this is not so. On the contrary, Harry is one of the smartest members of our class, and every term he takes home a report full of 5’s. French is his favorite study, but he shines in every- subject. Harry has been an efficient business manager of the Gleaner, and of this class book. Next year Harry will wear a little brown cap. and he is bound to succeed in college. 18 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 1922 MARY EUCRATIS ERSKINE Motto: “Smile, smile, smile.” Mary conies to P. H. S. from Albion but, in spite of the fact, she never has been known to come in after 8:30. As a consequence, Mr. Crosbv has not had tire pleasure of entertaining “Our Mary” in the reception room. Mary wants to be a teacher and we’re sure she would make a great success, for education is her goal. She has a great many friends in P. II. S. and is a valuable member of the Senior Class. While Mary may be quiet sometimes, she is. most often, just the opposite, and is known to be a good sport in the highest sense of the word. Next year she will enter the Normal school and teach future generations their “A. B. C.’s.” ALICE MARY FAGAN Motto: “Where there's a will there's a way.” Alice is one of Room 21's stars and a bright one at that. Promptly at 8:15 she saunters in with the world-old question. “Can you do that Latin”? It is queer how many people ask the same thing! Alice is a good sport and (to all that know her) is noted for her pep. There is little dullness when she is around. She is very fond of music and if anyone wants to dance there is a general call for her at the piano. She certainly can plav jar. , to perfection. She is an ardent worker for P. H. S. too. and like the rest of the students, thinks there is nothing like it. Alice intends to enter Trinity College. Washingtton. in the fall, and though we a!! hate to have her leave us, we wish her all kinds of good luck. EVERETT HAROLD FAIRWEATHER (“Ev” Motto: “When in wrong, do as you always do.” TRACK TEAM (4) “Ev” was one of the fastest potato racers on our champion track team this year, but he had hard luck in the meets. He sits in Room 25. near his friend Macomber. He is very popular with the fellows, and is a good student. Architectural drawing is his favorite study. Next year “Ev” intends to enter the business world. MILDRED ETTA FAIRWEATHER (“Bill”t Motto: “Never put of) till tomorrow what you can do today.” Mildred's most intimate friend invariably speaks of her as “Miss Fairweather.” But you must not get the idea from that, that she is at all distant. Oh, no. “Bill” is a good sport and an all enduring friend. When she goes to a track meet, she sticks it out until twelve-thirty, even though her little pals get sleepy and go home. Mildred has a wonderful record for speed and accuracy in shorthand and typewriting, and we know she is going to make some office sit up and take notice next year. Lately she has been gazing at the world from behind large, bone-rimmed glasses much to her own disgust, but we like ’em and defy anybody to say they are not becoming. 1922 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 19 BEATRICE COLETTE FARRELL rBea”) Motto: “Good things come in small packages.’’ Beatrice occupies a pew in room 24. She is an expert bowler and practices often as she is desirous of getting thin. We all know that she is R. A. M.’s lamb! Who dares dispute this statement? She is trying diligently to drive the new Maxwell. Be careful of the “cops.” “Bea.” Beatrice intends to go to R. I. C. E. in the fall and become a school teacher. Here’s wishing you the best of luck. Beatrice. EDITH MAE FEELEY Motto: “Once a friend always a friend.” Edith has her hair bobbed now, so the picture doesn’t do her justice at all. Her motto will tell you that Edith has won many friends for herself while in P. H. S. and she intends to keep them. Edith selects French as her favorite subject, and we’ll say she is one of Mr. Cobb’s “standbys” in Biology. Next year is as vet a rather hazy proposition where Edith is concerned but whatever she does, the best wishes of P. H. S. are hers. RALPH RUSSELL FIELDING (“Shorty”! Motto: “Laugh and grow fat.” TRACK MANAGER (4), SECRETARY OF THE DRAMATIC SOCIETY (41, DRAMATICS (3) (4), HOCKEY (3) (4l Shorty ’ will be noted for one thing, he has lived up to his motto. He needs no description. He’s the one that writes La Mothe’s themes, does Goodman's French and still manages to keep along with the rest. He managed Pawtucket’s biggest track season successfully and plaved the best game at hockey of any one in the school. In the dramatic line “Shorty is the leader. Admiral Grice was done in a fine manner. Although “Shorty” finds time for his “Trig,” his favorite study, he goes to all school affairs, socials, dances, etc. It is sometimes said that he’s a good dancer. Wre rather suspect he is. He is undecided about college. We hope he decides to hang his cap somewhere so that we can see him often. To “Shorty” himself, “Blessings on thee. little LAWRENCE AUGUSTINE FLYNN (“Larry”) Motto: “Don’t be a crook; there is too much competition.” basebai.i. (2) (3) (4) Larry is the sporty boy ivho has competently covered the second sack on the baseball team from the time when first practice was called in his sophomore year until the last ball was gathered this June. Baseball is Larry’s bug. But, Larry is also up and doing on all other school activities. He never misses a game, and his hand is always ready to shell out whenever the frequent call is heard. “Larry” hasn’t specified where he will be found next year, but. assuredly it will be where there is a ball team to make life worth living. 20 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 1922 JEANNETTE LOUISE FORTIER Motto: “Smile a while, and while you smile, another smiles and soon there’s miles and miles of smiles and life’s worth while, because you’ve smiled.” Yes, of course you all must know who this is. Certainly, Jeannette. Her merry brown eyes and infectious smile, are sure to banish any attack of blues. Jeannette says her favorite studies are Spanish and Physics, but most of us think study period ought to hold first place. There is one thing, however, of which she has become firmly convinced and that is, she is no friend of Caesar’s, or any of the rest of his tribe. Her plans for the future are still uncertain, but wherever she goes we wish her the best of luck. STELLA BEATRICE FORTIN (“Stel”i IV « IU Motto: “No legacy is so rich as honesty. gCdd CA' Well, well! And so that demure lady is the one that cant be conducted past a movie palace (?l without force. We are surprised! We never dreamed she was as frivolous as that. But that must be the reaction that comes from the hard work which she does while in school. Last year “SteT’ was one of the few unfortunates who headed the class in scholarship. Her favorite studies are typewriting and shorthand. We sav she has courage to tackle those hieroglyphics known to the world as shorthand, but if she is to become a private secretary (which is her desire), all that is probably ne-essary. We wish her the best of success in her plans for the future. RUTH ROBERTS FULLER Motto: “Why worry?” Biographv of Ruth Roberts Fuller. I. Dates—Still living. II. Life. Born in Pawtucket. At the age of three showed great predisposition for music and art. Graduated from Grove street Grammar School and entered P. H. S. in 1918. After great training she was enabled to reach high C. Became valuable addition to P. H. S. Super-Soprano chorus. Graduated in 1922. III. General characteristics. Brilliant conversationalist, noted for clever mimicry, brilliant repartees and heavy line placid and calm disposition, extraordinary--- -----humor. IV. Best know works. “Why I am a vegetarian.” “How to become thin.” “How I get fives without studying.” 1922 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 21 -2 i_ MILDRED JACKSON FREEMAN Motto: “Strive and succeed.” One would think, on account of being small, that a girl is noticed , much less, wouldn’t one? Ah, but that isn’t the case with “Mildred.” • Although she is small we find her capable of a great deal. In fact, much would he lacking at the Students’ Club, if she did not offer her services in their various activities. A smile is often her reward in the typewriting department, but along with a “5,” of course, when she hands in a neatly and accurately typed paper. She surely is a clever little typist! This study and Applied Design, she claims, are her favorites. She also shines in Miss Hosmers class. We are sure you will never dispute the fact if you have ever heard her fingers “tickle the keys.” This is the course of study which Mildred expects to take up next vear. DORIS MORSE GABBI (“Dot”) Motto: “Love ye one another.” Listen! Hear that clear, high voice? That belongs to “Dot” Gabbi. Whenever singing day comes around, her voice can be heard above the others. She’s quite a prominent figure before the footlights at one of our local churches. She suffers a great deal on account of her last name. Isn't it queer how the teachers always have the habit of pronouncing last names wrong? We never knew them to fail. “Dot” says her motto is “Love ye one another.” Evidently she loves one of the anothers because just at present there seems to be some outside “friend” that figures largely in her conversation. She plans to go to Pratt Institute next year. Here’s to her and her future. ANNA DORETHEA GAHAN (“Giggles”) Motto: “Where there's a will there’s a way.” TREASURER OF GIRL’S A. A., BUSINESS MANAGER OF “CREEN STOCKINGS,” DRAMATIC CAST B—b—b—bang! Goodness, what’s that! Don’t get excited, Mr. Wolfe, its’s only “Giggles” mixing up some unknown materials. She’s anxious to discover something wonderful, although she’s not fussy what it is. Anne’s favorite study is chemistry, so that accounts for some of the mishaps in the lab. She is an energetic young lady, and lives up to her motto, “absolutely.” When there’s a play to put across Anna’s the main push, she has a peculiar mania for selling tickets. We don’t know how she does it but she doesn’t care. Anne vies with Marlowe for dramatic honors and has made a hit in a couple of P. H. S.’s famous plays. And at the ball games. “Hot dorg!” hear her shout. She expects to go to R. I. C. E. next fall. CATHERINE MARY GARIEPY (“Kitty”) Motto: “If you can’t smile, grin (out loud).” Meow! Here comes “Kitty.” She certainly lives up to her motto and grins (out loud) quite often. When she comes around she brings the twin germs Laugh and Joke with her and scatters them into the atmosphere. She’s a good sport and lots of fun. After she joined the noble ranks of the shifters, she nearly got shifted for a great deal more than she intended. Better be more careful next time “Kitty,” and don’t get the password mixed. She is also one of the famous designers at P. H. S. and next year intends to cast in her lot with the Bohemian colony at the Rhode Island School of Design. 22 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 1922 HAROLD PERRY GOFF (“Goffy”) Motto: “Trust not too much to appearances. Look well before you leap.” “Goffy” can be seen almost every afternoon chugging up and down Broadway on his trusty motorcycle. He is an excellent scientific student, and his favorite study is science. He is shy and retiring, and has not taken a very active part in school affairs. Next year “Goffy” will enter the business world. JACOB GOODMAN (“Jake”) Motto: “In numbers there is strength.” TREASURER OF LYCEUM (4 I, CLEANER BOARD (4), CLASS BOOK BOARD (4), DEBATING LETTER MAN Jakie. the math shark, startled us early in his high school career by attempting, in partners with Orvil Robinson, to buy out the lunch counter with two bits and a broken-down shekel. After failing in this attempt, with a large vocabulary and two active hands, he tried to persuade and thump the members of the Lyceum into believing that, since Cerberus guards the entrance to Hades he must Ik a hot dog. In a later debate. Jakie, with a clear mathematical mind, went as far as to show that the revenue from the Panama Canal is worth one five-hundredth of a cent to every person in the United States. His motto shows that his favorite study is mathematics. Next year Jacob intends to go to the Business Administration College of Boston University. We all wish him good luck. tCfrjA JOHN GRAHAM, JR. (“Johny”) (Ail • Motto: “All’s well that ends well.” SECRETARY SCIENCE CU B (4), FIRST PRIZE CLEANER CONTEST OF 1922 We have all heard of that scarcity in nature man who hides his light under a bushel. Well, the class of '22 has such a man the person of Johnny Graham. He certainly makes an awful effort to keep out of the public glare, but in spite of all his efforts to play the humble worm stuff, we know he’s around all right. The saying that “you can t keep a good man down” can Ik changed to “a good man can’t keep himself down” in John’s case. DORIS LI ELLA GREEN (“Dot”) Motto: “Eat. drink and be merry. for tomorrow, not so good.” Here we have “Dot,” one of our best gigglers. She came to us from Grove Street School and has been at P. 11. S. four long years. “Dot may be seen at all the games, and she certainly believes in backing the school up. One of her favorite pastimes is whispering, especially in class, but that doesn’t worry her any, and when she gets caugrht she just passes it off with a grin. “Dot tells us that French is her favorite study. She hasn’t really decided what she is going to do next year, but whatever you do “Dot. eat drink and be merry, and we’ll always back you up. 1922 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 23 NATHANIEL TAYLOR GRIFFITHS (“Nat,” “Grif”) Motto: “Eat, drink, end be merry for tomorrow ye die.” CLASS HISTORIAN, CAST “GREEN STOCKINGS,” “iCI ON PARLE FRANCAIS,” “THE CHARM SCHOOL (4) “Beware of the man with the dark, wavy hair.” Alas! all warnings are in vain, when “Nat” takes them out riding and exhibits that remarkable power of playing with the wheel of his Chevie with one arm and “fussing” with the other, they always fall. He even keeps a Bertilion system to avoid making embarrasing mistakes. In two years “Nat” exhausted the P. H. S. supply of subjects, and sought C. F. for friends to increase the record. He knocks oft' good marks with great ease, and is some shark in his favorite study, trig. Some one made the happy discovery that “Nat” was a talented actor and since then he has featured in three plays. On the Class Book, he displayed great abilty and we have one of the best histories ever written. With all other accomplishments and good points, “Nat” is a prince of a good fellow. Next year he will wear a small brown cap and climb the hill, with other P. FI. S. men, to study engineering. FRANCES ANNA HADLEY (“Twinny,” “Buthter”) GLEANER BOARD (3) (4). CLASS BOOK COMMITTEE (4), SENIOR SUPPER COMMITTEE (4) Motto: “Whatever is worth doing is worth doing well. We know where “Twinny” hails from but she has asked us to keep it dark, so we will have to let it pass and salute the only known combination of brilliant student, musical genius, and talented artist. For four years she has landed a 5 in everything from French to bowling. On the side she experiments with the Exchange and has her voluminous mail sent to school for the convenience of her many secretaries. “Buthter” is a perfect sport. She loves to play tennis if there is only enough hen wire around. Every Saturday afternoon she takes little Theodore under one brawny arm and her canoe under the other, and is soon sending the “Redwing” over the surging waters of Olney pond. Next year “Twinny” will take a position as Kriesler’s accompanist and in addition will have a little studio where she's going to make border designs for policemen's badges. JOHN EDWARDS HARVEY (“Blondy,” “John”) Motto: “He can who thinks he can.” SWIMMING (4), CASTS “OUR CAREER.” “GREEN STOCKINGS,” “CHARM SCHOOL,” PRESIDENT RADIO CLUB (4) Here we have “Blondy,” the wireless wizard. He can talk, eat. and sleep radio news, and always has something to tell about what “K. I). K. A.” sent last night. He swims like a whale and studies like a shark. He manages to find time in one day for a Radio Club meeting, a Dramatic Society rehearsal, swimming practice, studying, and three hours at the radio phones. How he does it no one knows. Next year, John will wear a brown cap on his white head and will take up his favorite study, physics. Good wishes, John. 21 PAWTUCKET HIGH SC MARION ETHEL HARRINGTON (“Marion”) “Have you a little fairy in your school?” Yes! Look at this “Tiny Tot from Room 29! Pray, do not be deceived, although you can hardly see her, we are well aware of her presence for she is very lively. Is there an attraction for Marion in Room 29? We think there is. Well, we’ll admit he is nice. He says, “Do your best: that's what the 'ey angels are doing now-a-days.” Crash! Marion never sighs when report time comes, but, no wonder she is happy, look at the five's. Her favorite study is shorthand and dancing is her favorite pastime. Marion intends to be a “stenog” next year. Just watch her employer get rich. Well. Marion, we all wish you much success! MARION BORDEN HAWES (“Billy,” “Dearie”! Motto: “Look up and laugh and love and lift.” Is there anybody who doesn’t know “Billy”? She is one of our dearest, sweetest, most popular girls. Marion has several admirers in both Pawtucket and Central Falls High Schools. She is found weekly at the Friday-night dances, having a “great” time. However, there are two P. H. S. students who get more of her attention than the rest. Have you noticed at recess a certain junior in Room 27. and how about the senior that sits in 26? “Billy” and “Teddy” are always together. We wonder how both will survive next year if they are separated. It is Marion s intention to go to the New England Conservator) next year. We hope she will go, for we see in her a promising violinist and teacher. Here’s wishing vou the very l« st of success, Marion! WALTER AMBROSE HORTON (“Ainbie,” “Brosie”) Motto: “Always forget what you can’t remember.'’ Good things come in small packages. This is illustrated by Ambie Horton. He is the earnest worker in 21 who is aiming for a high place and is going to reach it regardless of cost. Ambie held a responsible position as Treasurer of the Lyceum for a time, but when pleasure interfered with business, he dropped the business. He made a 'treat many friends in Pawtucket High who will always remember him. Brown will see Ambie next year. Good luck old boy and a bon voyage. DOROTHY MAY HUNT (“Dot”) Motto: “You’re young only once.” Everyone in schools knows “Dot,” with her cute bobbed hair, her twinkling eyes and her winning smile. She sits in Room 21, and has bewitched the whole room by her engaging personality. Wherever you see Dot.” you are sure to see Mary Doorlev, for they are inseparable pals. “Dot” says that history is her favorite study, but she smiles her way into the hearts of all her teachers, so that they just have to give her good marks. Next year “Dot is going to normal school with her friend Mary. 1922 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 25 Motto: EDITH MAY HUTTON (“Ede”) fytt ‘When joy and duty clash, let duty go to smash.” Well, well! Here’s another blonde member of that tribe that wends its way down from Fairlawn town. It’s our happy-go-lucky Ede.” You can see by her motto that she doesn’t intend to let anything interfere with her good spirits. Just at present, she can’t quite decide which state she likes the better. Maine or New York! She is a regular water dog and even if she does have to get pulled out of the tank with the hook, once in a while, she continues to take her regular dip. Her favorite study is applied design and she can be found upstairs almost any time polishing her silverware. Next year she, too, will take her place at the Rhode Island College of Education. We wish her the best of luck! SYBIL BALCOM(HYDEjrSyb,” Tibi Motto: “Keep smiling.” DRAMATIC CASTS (3 I 14 I Whoever invented the word pep” must have had Sybil in mind, for sbe certainly knows how to keep things going. She has won the hearts of all her classmates with her winsome ways and “chestnut locks.” Her career as an actress has brought her touch fame. We’ll say she’s some star. Outside “Syb” spends much time riding a motorcycle—-you know, the the seat in back, and going on picnics with—. If the brakes of a Cadillac squeak just the right tone “Syb” Hies to the window like a flash. Another great pastime of Tibi’s” is dancing. There’s never a dance here or at Brown that her cheery face does not lighten. Oh. those moonlight waltzes! Of course she’s a great singer and has won much popularity in our noted “super-soprano” chorus. When at home “Syb” delights in nothing better than in joining “Barb” in her “study room.” About the future “Syb” is undecided. But we know that whether she goes to college or to some other finishing school that she will surely make the name of P. H. S. famous. ALZADA MARIE JARVIS (“Al”) Motto: “Love the trade which thou hast learned and be content therewith.” CAST OF “OUR CAREER” Aha! there are Pothier and Jarvis inseperables. The one with the the bobbed hair is “Al” Jarvis. Talk about style, she is it personified. She’s quite some little actress, and thay, thomtimeth the hath the cutelh little lithp. Her favorite subjects are applied design and study periods. W'e can’t quite tell which of the two is the trade that she has learned and loves, but we think it must be design part or she wouldn’t be such a wizard at it. She surely does make some weird and wonderful designs, all scrolls and filigree. She intends to go to the Rhode Island School of Design next year and we know she'll be a success. 26 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 1922 DOROTHY MARIE JOHNSON (“Dotty’) Motto: “Smile, always smile.” Hear that melodious giggle? Well, that belongs to “Dotty” Johnson. We think she ought to change her motto to “Giggle, always giggle.” Otherwise she's a quiet, sedate, little miss, the very pattern of propriety. She is said to have “waded” through four years of French an we hear startling reports from the French and Geometry classes as to her ability. Her favorite study is applied design. She “loves drawing, painting, and things of that sort.” The kind of painting isn’t specified, but she’ll probably paint the town red, someday, just to make a little excitement. “Dotty” intends to go to the Rhode Island School of Design next year, and train for her future work as drawing teacher. Better grow a bit “Dotty,” or they won t be able to tell teacher dear from the pupils. GRACE EDITH KAVEft Motto: “To be rather than to seem.” Grace is the sort of girl that makes a hit with the faculty. She pays attention in classes and knocks down a good certificate mark every time. Grace is a big-hearted girl. We know from experience that she is always willing to pass around the dainties that constitute her lunch. Her fudge is famous with the I-can-eat-the-most-club and would probably be a howling success if there was enough to supply the entire class. Grace takes her stand with the crowd behind the teams, and does her bit for old P. H. S. She expects to enter R. I. C. E. next year, and the future will find her, drilling needed knowledge into the heads of young America. Three “Ki’s” for Grace. EUGENE VINCENT KEENAN (“Gene”) Motto: “l)o as little as possible and then a little less.” FOOTBALL (3) (4l, VICE PRESIDENT LYCEUM (4) Everyone knows Gene; if not, they never sawr the football team play. For Gene was on the lineup every time ready to defend the Red and White. He is a quiet chap but made many friends. Gene served a verv successful term as Vice President of the Sumner Lyceum. He has a rich baritone voice and was one of the few chosen for the Minstrel chorus. His favorite study is chemistry although you would think they all were if you could see his marks. Gene will enter the portals of Providence College in the fall. Good luck, Gene. GERTRUDE CATHERINE KEENAN ( Cert”) Motto: “If you can’t be good, be as good as you can.” Here’s “Gert,” the chemistry shark. She’s another one of Mr. Wolfe’s troubles. We appreciate what a hard job it is to keep them in their place. But “Gert” follows her motto, and is always as good as she can be. Her favorite study is applied design, and in this she certainly does excel. “Gert” looks like a quiet little girl but looks are deceiving, for when she starts to talk, well, “Try and stop her.” “Gert” intends to enter R. I. C. E. in September. Best wishes! 1922 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 27 CATHARINE GERTRUDE OLIVE KELLEY (“Gert’ Clang! Clang! Clang! ! ! “Where’s the fire”? That red middy is in again. Who is it? that’s our optimistic friend, Gertrude, who advocates, “Don’t waste fresh tears over old griefs.” Gert’s three accessories, absolutely neces- ry for the state of her well being, are her red middv, her Ford, and last hut not least, her Brown man. “Don't forget the game this afternoon,” is Gert’s weekly warning, for she is a loyal supporter of P. H. S. and confidentially the P. H. S. games are not the only ones she is interested in. One year later? well, information, please connect me with Gert. MARGUERITE FRENCH KENT (“Marge”) Motto: “ you can get by with a little. why do a lot.” VICE PRESIDENT (3) (4), CLEANER BOARD (3) (4), CLASS BOOK COMMITTEE (4) I hree cheers for “Marge,” one of the most lively and attractive girls of our class. Everyone knows “Marge.” You can see her walking and laughing in the halls with her inseparable pal “Lute,” or selling tags at a football game surrounded by many admirers. The Athletic Association knows whom to pick, a tall winsome blonde makes ’em all fall. Ask the fellows, they know. As a student she is a 3 puller, but as a dancer she excels, both at school socials and especially at the “Star.” Her favorite sport is keeping the mailmen busy. We wonder why? Another good time for “Marge” is when the lunch bell rings. Yes, “Marge is half-way downstairs lx fore the rest of us get by the door. Everybody has to wait for the second course, while the fashionable left corner table (nearest the lunch counter I is occupied by “Marge” and the “gang.” In the near future “Marge” will take her longed for exams for Vassar where we’ll see her continuing her brilliant career. GRACE KENYON (“Grace”) Motto: “Look up, and love, and laugh, and lift. CAST OF “CHARM SCHOOL” Yes, she looks all right but the picture is flattering. A little thing like studying has never bothered “Grace.” True, she took home two books once but that hasn’t happened very often. Just recently, she made her debut in dramatics and everybody agrees that her talent is very unusual. Her favorite amusements are taking her absent-minded friends down street, and reading the thrilling stories of the Woman's Home Companion. She also has a weakness for Sunday School Conferences. You get such gratifying results! Judging from her motto, Grace is planning to be a furniture mover, but she says it’s to be normal school. We don't know what kind of a place Framingham is, but we hope there’s a church there. 28 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 1922 FREDERICK LEWIS KILBOURN ( ‘Lewie”! Motto: “Aim high: excel. CLEANER ( I ). SWIMMING TEAM (3) ( I), CAPTAIN ( 1), PRESIDENT SCIENCE CLUB (4) “Lewie” is a quiet unassuming chap, who works for everything he receives. He worked hard on the swimming team, and became captain. He studied much and attained the honor of being one of the first five. His favorite study is chemistry and his judgment in this line is seriously considered by all those who know him. Along all lines, he works according to his motto “Aim high; excel. Next year he will enter Brown where he will take a course in chemical engineering. Great things may he expected of him in the future. short. ERNEST ALDRIC LAMOTHE (“Bus”! FOOTBALL (2) (3 I (4), CAPTAIN (4), ALLSTAR TEAM (4� Motto: “Better late than never” First period, second period, and short recess things of the past, yet we still have hopes. First call for eats and a “wadda I care” tread on the stairs. A drink at the H.O pipe and he's all set for a hearty breakfast at the lunch-counter. Of course this only happens two, three, four or five times a week but then—we boys must have our rest. Not considering his propensity for being late and making a howling success of it. “Bus” is sure—one of the boys. “Bus’ ” specialty is football. In the football history of P. H. S. there has never been a more aggressive, smashing, heady guard than “Bus” LaMothe. But not only in football has “Bus” rung the bell. The boy has a career before him as a forceful speaker. “Bus” has slated himself for a law course at Georgetown. Here’s the future success of our„ Bus ------------BRyC£S LEAVENS (“Barb”! Dux Femina Facti” little lady is called “Barb” for ooks. for when you know her she s what they all say, just ask ’em. private “study room” with No wonder she spends a lot of her time up there, good times spent there. “Barb” enjoys eating apples and yellow” machines. But why that color. Barbara? Well, year she expects to enter the New Haven Normal School of Gymnastics. whence she will start her career making girls what they should be. The best of good wishes for your success! GERTRUDE LEDDY i “Cert” i Motto: “Laugh and the world laughs with you. weep and you weep alone” Among our quietest yet finest girls in old P. H. S. is Gert. Room 24 is proud to claim her, and indeed would lose one of its best students if she were to leave. She is very popular with her friends, and is always seen in the midst of a laughing, chattering group of girls. She never misses a day. and is one of the star pupils in her classes. She is especially interested in History, and in 4th period above all. Miss Osborne’s stories take up most of her study period. Next year Gert expects to enter R. I. C. E. where we all wish her the best of success. She's is very witty “Barb” has a a victrola and love 1922 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOI 29 MARY B. LEONARD Motto: “Come and trip it as you go on the light fantastic Mary, the gay and full of fun! If you want to see a smiling all the time, then look at her, for Mary always has everyone. Her chief sport is dancing and she practices it It isn't very remarkable that studies do not i year she expects to enter Rhode Island State college will prove to a little more gay, since add her “pep.” WINIFRED MAY LEWIS (“Win” “Winnie”) Motto: Where there’s a will, there's a wav. “Winnine,” with her winning smile, came to from Grove Street and has been busy all the time making herself agreeable, in which she has succeeded admirably. “Winnnie” is always prominent at all school affairs but especially at the games. She is in the front row of rooters and does her bit. along with somebody else’s, for supporting the teams. One might suppose “Win” was a shy retiring maiden but when surrounded by her usual group of friends she is usually full of “pep.” Winnie expects to make some home a model of perfection in the future. She will probably leave Pawtucket and live in New York after grad nation. LEONARD MURRAY LUTHER (“Ned”) f L Motto: “Nunquam non pa rat us.” Look out! Wow, but that was a close one! Who’s the reckless “bird in that auto? Oh. that’s “Ned,” alias Lanky. Some boy. too! I Has nothing to do with girls. I “Ned’s” favorite study is chemistry. He’s another of the P. H. S. Wireless sharks, and he spends practically all of his time at his set (trying to find out what the Europeans have got to sav). His motto is, “Nunquam non paratus,” and he is always prepared (except once in a while in French). He intends to enter Rhode Island State College next year. JOHN HENRY MACOMBER (“Yocka,” “Debs”) Motto: “If you can’t he a lighthouse, he a candle.” FOOTBALL (4), CAST “CAESAR’S GHOST” (4) AI THOR—“Caesar’s Ghost,” First Assistant Poet Laureate. Plenty of other honors but we can’t think of them. John, the immortal! Ever ready with a poem for the Tattler with a tackle for his “man with the ball” or w ith a recitation in any class, he has bombed his way through P. H. S. In his Freshman year, he or ganized a Ku Klux Klan. but, somehow, that made no impression upon the sophisticated minds of the upper-classmen, so he laid a “nationwide” plan to establish “Socialism” in the high school. His plan flourished until Miss L— became converted and gave “Debs” and HefTern each half of a 5 (2+ apiece) for a perfect joint recitation, 30 1922 CHARLES SEYMOUR MACOMBER (“Chick,” “Mack”) Motto: “All or nothing” This is “goggles” who sits in room 20. He doesn’t say much and he doesn’t do much. Charlie is a “dead-eye-dick” with erasers. Doesn t know what his favorite study is because he’s never tried studying. His ambition is to become an acrobat in a side show. He has a melodious tenor voice, if it were trained, and a good many more assets. May his successes he multitudinous and come with celeritv. HELEN ISABELLE MALONEY Motto: “Mieux tard que jamais.” Here is one of our quietest pupils but, nevertheless, a much liked one. She comes to us from Darlington’s “wilds,” and every morning she appears with a smile. Her favorite subject is Spanish, and she is very efficient in it to say the least. Her marks in that subject would alone prove it. Next year she expects to enter the Rhode Island College of Education, and we wish her much success and happiness (for the future), both of which we are sure she will obtji CASPAR I) GEORGE MARTIN (“Frog,” “Gap” ) Motto: “Whatever you want, try and get it” Gap” is one of the Macomber’s gang of chalk and eraser heavers in Room 25. At recess when the dust fills the corridors, someone says. “Martin’s ofT,” and everybody scurries for shelter. “Frog” has a hard time dodging the “Corridor Cops.” His favorite study is history and we hope he will soon be making history in the business world. Your motto doesn’t include the lunch-counter, does it, Gap? Next year Gaspard, king of the “puddle-jumpers,” will enter into business with the best wishes of his classmates. Take it easy, Gap. JEAN REID MARTIN SECRETARY OF DRAMATIC SOCIETY, CAST “iCI l’o.N PARLE FRANCAIS” Now it came to pass that there was born to the house of Martin a daughter Jean. And when Jean had attained to the age of about three years these mystic words were spoken to her by an angel who didst appear in a vision. Eat when you’re hungry Drink when you’re dry Always be merry And you’ll live till you die. And behold, Jean didst obey the instructions which the angel had commanded unto her and didst wax exceedingly merry and exceedingly plump. And when she had reached a fitting age, she was admitted into the portals of the Land of Learning, and behold, if any other inhabitants of the land were in doldrums. Jean did appear unto them and straightway the doldrums were sat upon. 1922 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 31 FRANCES HOOD MASON (“Twinny”) Motto: “Laugh at any mortal thing.” CLASS HISTORIAN, CLEANER BOARD (3) (4), CLASS BOOK COMMITTEE, SECRETARY OF THE CIRl-’S A. A., COLONIAL DAMES PRIZE, CHAMBER OF COMMERCE PRIZE Here is the lady that takes the prize when it comes to carrying away the 5’s. They’re not the kind that are carefully changed over from 3’s either; they're the genuine article. Her favorite study is English (for proof please see prizes mentioned above) and, keep it dark, we think she must like Latin too, the way she pours forth “Virgil” translations. But her shoulders are broad enough to bear all this responsibilty. Her regular pastime is telling “fiction” (Mark Twain the second) and dieting ( ? ? (. She does reducing exercises every day, that is, she takes a walk down town every day for her health (incidentally to see the styles). She’s a good sport, and is frequently “among those present” at the school games. She’s quite strong on tennis and will be a champion some day, maybe. Next year “Twinny” is going to journey in to Brown to see how much brother knows. We know she’ll succeed there as has at P. H. S. ELEANOR KATHLEEN McACEVY (“El”) Motto: Nothing ventured, nothing won. Here's Eleanor with her dreamy eyes and pink and whiti “El” has a hard time to keep awake in school. You see, she is so busy every night entertaining, or being entertained, that she is usually rather tired by the time she gets to school. Eleanor does her bit for all school activities, but she excels at the dances. She chooses United States History as her favorite study. We can’t blame her for that, because she has it with Miss Osborne in dear old Room 24. Eleanor follows her motto and succeeds too, because there are but few that she tackles and does not conquor. R. I. C. E. will welcome Eleanor in the fall. Don’t forget us, “El!” Pawtucket fellows are just as good-looking as anything at Providence College. HUGH JAMES McCAUGHEY “Mack,” “The Janitor”! Motto: “Don’t let your right hand know what your left holds.” FOOTBALL (2) (3) (4), BASEBALL (1) (2) (3) (4), CAPTAIN (4), HOCKEY (3) (4), CAPTAIN (4), MEMBER OF CAST IN “suicide club” (4) “Mack” has been one of the leading athletes of the school for several years. The past year also made the best center of any football team in the state. He has also made a name for himself in baseball, playing on the team for four years. During school hours “Mack” is a quiet appearing fellow, and with that innocent look of his, he can get away with anything. He is about the most popular fellow in school, and you can't help liking him. “Mack” is undecided as to what he will do next year, but he isn’t worrying, so why should we? 32 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 1922 MARY GERTRUDE McCAUGHEY Motto: “Time and tide wait for no man” Mary is one of the best history students Room 17 ran produce. Perhaps that accounts for history being her favorite study, however, bookkeeping comes in as a close second. She is a typing star, and will make a fine bookkeeper. She is full of fun and is very well liked by everyone. Next vear Mary expects to enter an office, and we all extend our best wishes to her. LEO EDWARD McDONALD (“Mack”) Motto: “Take it easy. “Still water runs deep.” “Mack ’ doesn t say much but. “actions speak louder than words.” He has spent a good deal of time in Mr. Arnold’s woodworking shop, where he has turned out many fine pieces of work. He expects to enter the business world next year and all the members of the class of 22 wish him the best of luck. f l°toO r A KATHRYN FRANCES McGARRY r‘Kay”l Motto: “To think is to act” Tee, hee—giggle, giggle, and I said, buzz, buzz, and he said—more buzzes. 0. that’s Kay giggling as usual and telling her sidekicker about the wild time she had last night. For, you know, Kay is very seldom in. at night. We know from experience. However, this fact doesn’t seem to bother her studies, because the 5’s come rolling in just the same. How do you manage it, Kay? Applied Design is her favorite subject and we see various young men around school wearing specimens of her handiwork. Rather a snappy motto, Kay. but you had better control your thoughts. All the athletic events see Kay on deck with flying colors for although she likes all the men in general she likes the athletic men in particular. She expects to enter R. I. C. E. in September, so long. Kay. CLARE FRANCES McHUGH (“Kid”i Motto: “No matter what happens, grin .” “Who is that child?” Why. that’s Clare and she’s not a child, she’s a dignified senior, very dignified. Clare is very fond of dancing and is continually trying to excel Pavlowa, so that sometimes she has to answer, “not prepared.” to her teachers. Nevertheless, her reports always have their share of good marks. Clare’s motto, like herself, is short and snappy and she follows it admirably. She says that she has enjoyed French more than any other study while in P. 11. S. Clare intends to go to some Business College in the fall and continue her studies so well begun in P. H. S. We know you’ll be a success. “Kid.” 1922 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 33 CHARLES MATTHEW McLAUGHLIN (“Chick.” “Luke,” “McLuke”) Motto: “Wh ere there’s a will, there’s a court proceeding.” FOOTBALL (4), BASEBALL (3) (4), CAST “CAESAR’S CHOST” AND “suicide club” Yes sir. “Chick is the all-round athlete. Ih‘ plays football, baseball and basketball like a whirlwind, and as for his many other talents, he displayed them in that most illustrious melodrama of our budding tragedian, “Great Caesar’s Ghost” and the “Suicide Club.” His will is good so he must he well-known in the court. His favorite study is trigonometry, and he sure does shine in it. He works hard (?! as his books show, but for all that, his marks show him to be as good a scholar as he is a quarter-back. Next fall he intends to enter Rhode Island State College where we are sure he will show himself worthy of P. H. S. in everything he does. RUTH COBB MeKAY (“Rufus”� Motto: “Look bejore you leap.” “Rufus has a habit of puffing into the dressing room at eight-twenty nine and wickedly reminding her friends that they take up too much space. That is the only wicked thing she ever does though: the rest of the day she bursts into violent and uncontrolled laughter as easily and on the same slight provocation as the rest of us. She knows what it is to he absent-minded, too. Once she went into a store to buy some shoes and forgot where her foot was, so the clerk could not fit her, much to her disgust. Ruth’s favorite study is Spanish. Her favorite amusements are hall games and dancing. Next year she is going buy either a students’ hag or an automobile and journey into Brvant and Stratton's. Wo are betting that she will make the grade. JOSEPH EDWARD McMAHON (“Eagle Beak”) Motto: Sever do today what you can put off till tomorrow ” Bill! Bang! Duck! Eagle Beak is on the rampage with a fresh supply of ammunition (chalk and erasers!! Eagle Beak sure does live up to his motto, “Never do today what you can put off till tomorrow. hut. no matter how he has to rush and cram upon the morrow, he manages to get his work done. He says his favorite study is “Study Period.” (We can’t think it’s the “period” and not the “study” part of it.) He intends to enter Fordham next year. GEORGE 1)1 FF MORROW CLEANER BOARD (31 (4), CLASS BOOK (4) Enter George and exit we for shelter. He is the president of the (-haIk and Eraser Club and insists on exercising his knowledge in practical ballistics at our expense. George is an A-l wizard at language, and after swallowing four years of Latin pipes up with it as his favorite subject. Trig comes natural and English just accumulates in his brain. He is a member of the Cleaner Board and has made the “Locals” the best section of the Gleaner. Not only in his studies is he 5+. but on a nice moonlight hank by a silvery brook, etc. George can supply pretty savings in whatever language she understands. Next vear George will travel to Brown and browse in new pasture for a Ph.B 34 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 1922 ELIZABETH MORSE (“Libby”) Motto: “W hat other fools have done, I can do.” PRESIDENT girl’s ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION (4), PRESIDENT DRAMATIC SOCIETY (4), DRAMATIC CAST (3) (4), CLEANER BOARD (3) (4), CLASS BOOK COMMITTEE (4) “Libby” is one of the most peppy, popular and pretty girls of our illustrious Senior class. Studies simply do not exist for her, but why worry. Her favorite study is Latin. Didn’t I say she was brilliant? Oh. those marks! Oh, that system! Why weren’t we all born with such wonderful ideas? “Libby” is a very brilliant star on our amateur stage and the famous Society prospers under her leadership. As for our Athletic Asociation, well, it is enough to say that she heads it. She can swim, play a great game of tennis and dance to perfection. “Libby” is a fine worker for P. H. S., there never was a football or baseball game when she didn’t decorate every auto and student with a tag. Somehow she always managed to sell a little more than the rest. Next year she will enter Pembroke and we all wish her heartily, the best o’ luck. ROBERT CARLTON PATTON (“Bob,” “Pat, “Sc ch Gladiator Motto: “Leave no stone unturned.’ CLASS FOOTBALL (4) Where’s “Pat”? Oh, he’s up in the lab, practicing the distilling H.S at which, by the evidence of our nasal organs, he must be a genius. “Bob” made the Senior football team and we are only sorry because the Times couldn’t spare him so he could try out on the Red and White. His favorite study is chemistry and he insists on debating with “Herbie” on that famous question. Resolved: “That a Four Should be Made a Five.” After graduation, which is a sure thing for him, he is going to Rhode Island State College and we wish him the best of luck and the success a P. H. S. man is sure to get. ANNA PLOTKIN Motto: “To he rather than to seem.” Anna is an unpresuming little girl. She doesn’t talk much about herself, so we don’t know so very much about her. However, we do know that she has a sunny disposition and a happy smile for everybody, even the faculty. Anna is a very good student in all her subjects but she favors Applied Design. Many of her creations in design work are the envy of the girls. Anna has a good motto and if she lives up to it in the future as she did in P. H. S., success will certainly be hers. Anna expects to go to drawing school in the fall. The best wishes of the class of ’22 go with her. 1922 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 35 BEATRICE EDNA POTHIER (“Bea”) Motto: To look up and love and laugh.99 “DISTRICT ATTORNEY,” “green STOCKINGS,” “OCR CAREER.” “THE CHARM SCHOOL” “Bea” is one of our dramatic stars, having been in four plays. We are sure no one will miss her more than the members of the dramatic society when she leaves us. Her favorite study is applied design and we don’t wonder at this a hit. for she has turned out a dazzling succession of rings, pins, bracelets. posters, lockets, blouses, and so many other lovely things that we hardly know where to stop. Next year Beatrice plans to go to the Rhode Island School of Design to study Interior Decorating. Go to it, “Bea,” and may you continue to live up to your motto as you have for four years at P. H. S. WALTER ALFRED POTTER (“Hank,” “Walt”! Motto: “Tiens ta joi. PRESIDENT OF A. A. (4), FOOTBALL (3 (4), BASEBALL (2) (4), TRACK (4), HOCKEY (4), SWIMMING (3), MINTREL SHOW (4) “Walt” has been our star all-round athlete. An all star performer at football, a champion high jumper, an excellent catcher, a good swimmer, a reliable man on the ice, a successful President of the Athletic Association are hut a few of the many compliments which might be paid him. His work on the football field was wonderful, and he did what probably no other Pawtucket High man ever did: he earned seven letters in five different sports. His favorite study is history. Next year we’ll hear much about our “Walt” at R. I. State College, where we expect him to star in sports. Hit the line hard, “Hank.” yr ANNA VERONICA QUINLAN CASTS “TWO CROOKS,” “THE CHARM SCHOOL” (4) Motto: “Perseverance is the secret oj success.99 This is Anna, who has been with us four years and has never failed in all that time. W hen she was a freshman she learned that the cow never jumped over the moon. This showed her the value of P. H. S. and stayed here. “Perseverance” is her motto—it must be—for she says bookkeeping is her favorite study. Mr. Holden would be very lucky if all were like Anna. She is going to a business college to continue her studies. If she does as well there as she did here she will have no trouble. May you succeed, Anna! PRISCILLA VICTORIA RATCLIFFE Motto: Laugh, and the world laughs with you; weep, and you weep alone. One guess who that demure little maiden is. Yes. right the first time, it’s Priscilla. Her quiet way has won the hearts of all her classmates. Priscilla likes all her studies very much, hut she prefers history. Outside. Priscilla is much wrapped up in Chistrian Endeavor work. She also likes very much to ride in the front seat of a certain somebody’s car. W hich do you like best Priscilla? She has not decided where she’ll go next year hut nevertheless where she does go she’ll surely meet with • success. PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 1922 MARION RICHARDSON (“Twinny”) Motto: “Ain't we got fun!” Guess I'll take another look! Say, is that you, Marion? Marion is one of the fair sex. who, with her double, occupies a “pew” in Room 29. Twinnie” is a very busy lady you know, with her studies, but even so, she finds time to spend otherwise. Did you ever notice the machine outside the school at recess? The Twins and Ruth fairly fly to greet the “Chauffeur” who is waiting patiently ( ? I to take them riding. Oh Yes! Marion goes many places, and the next morning everybody is busy listening to the heavy line about the “prom” or the stunning dress so-and-so wore. “Twinnie” is really undecided about what she will do next year. MILDRED RICHARDSON (“Millie”) Motto: “To be rather than to seem.” Here’s Mildred, no Marion, no, Mildred. Well, let’s flip up: heads I win, tails you lose. It’s “Millie.” But just what do you mean by your motto? To be Mildred rather than to seem to be Marion or to be Marion rather than to seem to be Mildred. I guess we’ll have to give up. its too much for us. “Twinnie” is an ardent follower of the Terpsichorean art and no dance can begin too early or too late to suit her. Mildred’s favorite study is Applied Design and her wonderful collection of adorable trinkets show us her proficiency along this line. Next year Mildred intends to go to the Rhode Island School of Design. May the best of luck go with you in all your undertakings, “Twinnie.” DOROTHY RILEY (“Dot”) Motto: “When fun and duty clash, let duty go to smash.” She’s not tall and she’s not short, not too bold, or not too cold, in fact, we should say that she was just right. Some people might be led to believe that “Dot” was quiet, but those who know her will not stand for that. They say that once she gets started, well—“Try and stop her.” Dot’s favorite study is Stenography, which in itself is enough to assure use that she is a good student. But she doesn’t study all the time, as she shows by her motto she is fond of fun and is always ready for a good time. “Dot” is going to enter a business office and create a new industrials system or do something else wonderful to spread the fame of P. H. S. NELLIE ELIZABETH ROBERTS (“Nell”) Motto: “Honesty is the best policy.” re isn’t our “Nell.” In school she’s very busy studying to be somebody’s stenographer. We all wonder who the lucky “somebody ’ is. But outside we see her dancing every number at the “Prom,” riding in “Pierce Arrows” to both football and baseball, games, and laughing and enjoying a play with—. Well, we must stop now or we'll be getting too personal. There’s never a time for school spirit to be shown when “Nell” is not on hand. If she keeps up her good work, we know Nellie will become one of the best stenographers that P. H. S. has produced. 1922 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 37 GERTRUDE ESTELLE ROBINSON (“Blondy,” ‘Bobby” “Dolly”) Motto: “Persevere.” “Dolly” is that tall, good-looking blonde, who furnishes the amusement of Miss Rowe’s English class, and attracts its admiration at report time. “Blondy” is full of “pep and wit, and she is always ready for a good time. She “loves” auto riding, and she is very capable at driving “Baby Packards.” “Bobby” made a startling appearance as “Mr. Guy,” in French class. Oh, boy! I wonder whose trousers and cap they were. Never mind, Gertrude, they were a perfect fit and the comedy was much enjoyed by those who saw it. “Bobby,” “Teddy,” and Billy” are almost always together at recess, and although they are together a great deal, they always have plentv to confide to one another. Gertrude expects to attend Bryant and Stratton’s Commercial or Gibb’s Private Secretarial School next year. We wish you all the luck in the world, Gertrude! PHILIP ROBINSON ( Phil”) Motto: “luvenis, in omnibus triumpase poles.” DEBATING 14), SENIOR PLAY Phil is surely out to triumph in his youth all right. He has the distinction of making the college course in three years. (The best part of this is that he can attend singing with both the junior and the senior classes, missing two periods every Tuesday.) He say his favorite study is Latin (seems impossible, though I. He is some speaker, also. He made the P. H. S. Debating Team and will no doubt be heard of as a debater in college. He has also been a member of the Dramatic Society and a member of the cast of the Senior Play. Phil intends to enter Brown next vear to take up a course in Business Administration, and as a business man, we are sure Phil will be a success. MILTON ALVA ROY ( Milt”I Motto: “Do your best; that's all the angels are doing nowadays.” “Milt” came to us the fourth year from Durfee High, Fall River. We woke up to (he fact that he was around when the five leaders of the Senior Class were named the first term. He says his favorite study is Law but how about the English Clgss, “Milt?” The angels will have to step pretty lively to keep up to Milt in both Law and English. His latest undertaking is a course at Prof. Murphy’s Terpsichorean Academy. After completing his course at P. H. S. he intends to enter the business world. The good wishes of the class go with him. 38 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 1922 LUCY GENEVIEVE RUSSELL (“Lute”) Motto: “Hear much, but say little.” CLEANER BOARD (4), CLASS BOOK COMMITTEE (4 , DRAMATIC CAST (3) (4), “prom” COMMITTEE (3) “Lute,” is a twin, figuratively speaking, because where she is. there is “Marge.” “Lute” is a tall brunette and some “kippy”—isn’t that so? Well, we’ll say so. As for studying and marks, what we want to know is how she does it with all the dates she has? She is good in plays, too: how about “Pierrettes.” Oh. that is just a sample of her dancing. “Tripping the light fantastic” is second nature to her. Ask the fellows and see if they don’t agree. You should see them at a dance, whv it’s impossible to get even a single short waltz. Tuesday’s singing period is one of the most exciting times of the week for her. The front row is “Reserved” and “Lute” occupies the first seat in the first row on the left-hand side weekly. This is most important, for she is the leader for Mr. Ladd’s super-sopranos. Next year “Lute” goes to Pembroke where we expect to hear of smashed records especially in Latin and popularity. ARTHUR RUSTIGIAN (“Art,” “Rusty,” “Harkness”) Motto: “Art for Art's sake” JUNIOR TRACK (31, FOOTBALL (4), ASSISTANT HOCKEY MANAGER (3), HOCKEY MANAGER (4), GLEANER BOARD (3), DRAMATICS (31. DEBATING (3) “Rusty” the artist with the true artist’s flowing tie. But. outside of that, if it is possible to get outside of it. Rusty is one of the noble boys of the school. His love for art and his well-known ability along this line has added many worthy cuts to the Gleaner. Not only along the lines of art has “Rusty” scored. His greatest successes were won in his senior year. As a hockey manager he hasn’t had a peer. His dramatic ability was rated with the best. On football his career as a fullback was untimely cut short by having 2 ribs fractured during one of the games. R. I. School of Design will claim him for Architecture next year. CHARLOTTE SCHAFFER (“La-La”) Motto: “Help yourself and Heaven will help you” Charlotte continually bounces into school at 8:35 or thereabouts, but it doesn’t bother her in the least, for she smiles at the world as complacently as if she were there at 8:15. La-La is a good sport through and through, the whole class will vouch. She goes to all the games and shows she has a pair of eyes that simply cannot behave. Charlotte has time for lessons, too, she has faithfully followed our splendid business course and chooses Shorthand as her favorite subject. She also likes Public Speaking when she lias a chance to flaunt her talents. Charlotte expects to be putting her said talents to practical work next year and be an efficient stenographer for some lucky boss. 1922 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL, 39 FRANCIS RAYMOND SENT (“Bumps,” “Nicholas Nonsense”) Motto: “Better late than never. “Bumps” is one of Terpsichore’s hand, and he shakes a wicked hoof at some of the school dances. His favorite study is hookkeeping and when he is not dancing he spends his time keeping a double-entry ledger of tickets bought and sold. We wonder if his motto works with the bobbed-haired girl who sits in 24. Next year he will he jazzing the typewriter keys at Bryant and Stratton Commercial School. WALTER SHACKLETON (“Shack,” “Walt”) Motto: “Organization.” CLASS PRESIDENT (4), ASSISTANT BUSINESS MANAGER GLEANER (44, ASSISTANT BUSINESS MANAGER (4), CLASS PROPHET (4), DEBATING (4). DRAMATIC CAST (4), CLASS FOOTBALL CHAIRMAN “PROM” COMMITTEE (3), GLEE CLUB (4), MINSTREL SHOW COMMITTEE (4), CHEER LEADER (4) Yea, Walter! Yea, Shackleton! Yea! Yea! Walter Shackleton! Thus the whole school cheers for Walter and thus the whole schools feels. Whether it he directing a campaign for money, organizing a football team, leading the cheering section or just being a downright good fellow, “Walt” is there.” With the hoys he is a good pal and with the girls—when Walt is seen approaching with stately form and cheery smile, adoration is the only word that descril es their emotions. To say that “Shack” is a phenomena is no exaggeration. One of the best and most popular leaders that P. H. S. has ever had. he has lent his tireless energy and initiative to practically everything that has taken place in P. H. S. for the past two years. In the meantime he has been engaged in the more serious business of helping to run the Sayles Plant and just incidently in certifying in a majority of his courses. On the high road to success Walt leaves P. H. S. Next year he is going to wear a little brown cap and climb the hill to learn some more about engineering. From the bottom of our hearts we know that he’s going to be a success and a pride to P. H. S. FREDERICK REGINALD SHULVER (“Freddie”) Motto: “Try anything once FOOTBALL (4), BASEBALL (2) (3) (4), GLEE CLUB (4) Freddie, the well-known boy in the leather coat who wraps up the sidewalks, closes up the Py-An Club and walks the last man home. He is one of the few who never says “no” whenever any cash has to be dug up for some tickets or fund. And never has he refused to take a girl home no matter how far she has to walk. Freddie is another baseball fiend as may be seen from his record. Also we can hand him quite a little credit for his backfield work on this year’s football team. Moses Brown and then a mining engineer course will keep Freddie busy after he leaves the “old ’ school. 40 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 1922 MARION LOUISE SMITH (“Ann”) Motto: “Variety is the spice of life.” CHAIRMAN OF CLASS SUPPER COMMITTEE (41, DRAMATICS (4) Who’s that wee little blonde down there trying to make the girls forget their sorrows? Why of course that’s our Ann, who is one of our best merry-makers, and we’ll say she’s full of it. Like the rest of her pals Ann is fond of dancing. But she’s more than a dancer, she’s a ballet dancer. Do you remember in “All Aboard” that cute little lassie next to “Vi.” Well, that was Marion. Outside of school Marion is called “Hon.” But not in school? Oh yes, sometimes by—. Well, let’s not discuss that matter any further. Marion is quite a distinguished hairdresser, excelling in shampooing certain “pomps:” Ann is undecided about next year but nevertheless, P. H. S. and her classmates wish her the best of success wherever she goes. MAUDE EVELYN SMITH (“Maude”! Motto: “Aim high and persevere.” ORCHESTRA (1) (2) (31 (4) Maude is one of Mr. Ladd’s tried-and-trusted. She excels at other studies besides fiddling, however, for at the end of each quarter, her report has its goodly share of fives. Maude’s aims are surely high, for she is going to a secretariel school next year in order to learn how to handle Charley Schwab’s private business. Oh, of course, it will be private, except to her dearest confidante. “Now, promise not to tell”— just like that. We know you'll succeed, Maude. RUTH A. SMITH Motto: “Better late than never. 8:30—no Ruth! 8:40—still no Ruth! 8:55 and Ruth rushes in puffing for breath, she had to hurry or it might be, “never,” as her motto states. Ruth is a happy-go-lucky girl with a perpetual smile to brighten the hearts of the faculty. Ruth says that she likes Shorthand the best of all her studies because it is very convenient in writing notes. Ruth has her own particular method, so that the faculty has difficulty transcribing notes that occasionally fall their way. Ruth is undecided about the future, perhaps she will become famous for her “untranscribable” shorthand. “You never can tell!” ELMER RAYMOND STACKPOLE (“Stack,” • Ray”) Motto: “Don't do it.” CLASS TREASURER (3) (4) “Stack’s” motto applies to homework. He took up a “Recreation Course” for the first two years and then he changed to the “Varsity Course.” How Ray manages to shake milk at Morgan’s, study, go to Rhodes, sleep, and arrive in school at 8:29 is a mystery to most of us. Perhaps the inspiration of a girl who lives in South Attleboro is the reason. Anyway he does it. Ray kept our finances in good condition. Next year, Ray will attend the Rhode Island College of Pharmacy. Good luck. Rav. 1922 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 41 DORIS IRENE STEELE (“DoC’l Motto: “Olio (hint vitia Idleness produces vice)” “Say, Dot, you’re a good sport, will you—?” “Of course I will.” And then watch her bright eyes twinkle. “Dot is so very good-natured she’d do anything for anyone las long as she isn’t compelled to keep quiet). Her motto certainly does suggest pep,” doesn’t it? Doris claims her favorite study is American History, hut we think she likes Chem quite well. What is it, the experiments. Dot? or something else? However, Dottie, I guess other people enjoy your presence in Chemistry. Dot’s a great aid to the weak altos, who struggle in vain to hit the right notes. We’re sorry to lose her. hut we realize that, after finishing her course at R. I. College of Education, she will he a lienefit to many more. Wre are sure. Dot, that the “little kiddies” will never tire of vour lasting smile and cheery ways. We wish you the best of success. IDA SWEET Motto: ‘ rut no faith in good looks.” Twenty-nine minutes past eight! Ah, here comes Ida! on the dot, as usual, never early; never late! Quiet? Oh no, she isn’t! You may have that impression if you don’t know her, but all her friends agree that she is lively. Ida is frequently seen with Marion, and when they are together, both of them are far from being quiet. Ida enjoys study periods immensely. She says that Miss D’s eagle-eye is always watching her. and that generally she gets caught when she begins to whisper or giggle, and that it takes the rest of the day for her to recover. Ida is a regular “shark” at shorthand, and has excellent business qualities. She is undecided about her future; but we know that she will be successful in whatever, she undertakes. W'e all wish you luck, Ida! NOMAN MORPETH SWINDELLS (“Swindy,” “Bennett,” “Dizz (recent acquisition) Motto: “You can't keep a good man down.” CLASS SUPPER COMMITTEE “Swindy” the boy with the light socks and the grin that can’t be sand-papered off. This combination may he seem anywhere around the building from the last stroke of the first bell to the first stroke of the last bell never before, never after. “Swindy” listed Algebra as his favorite subject. Well, we are compelled to admit that the boy can write it out. During his senior year at P. H. S. “Swindy” has been doing quite a little smithing and making tires. Well, I suppose one must have some sort of a trade. Next year he is going to try tangling the wires at the General Electric School of Apprentices at West Lynn. Mass. 42 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 1922 GEORGE EDMUND TABER ( George”) Motto: A little knowledge is a good thing. TRACK (4), MINSTREL SHOW CAST (4) George came to us from Cranston last year, and immediately began to star on the track. His long legs carried him over the track, a winner on several occasions. George used to be quite bashful, but now he steps out with the rest as if he was brought up in a hall room. His favorite study is French and the way he “drags” the fives make us think that he believes in his motto. George is a radio shark, and he and Harvey have great times listening in on the phones. Next year it will be Brown for George. Good luck, George. WALTER FRANCIS TIERNEY (“Walt,” “Blondie,” “Kid”) Motto: “To be rather than to seem.” Walt is the quiet, blonde haired chap of 29 who slips into his seat exactly 8:.30V[ . With his friendly smile and ready “hello” he is welcome everywhere. Unfortunately for P. H. S. “Walt ’ spent three years of his preparatory school career at La Salle, thus keeping “Walt out of football for the greater part of the season and losing to P. H. S. a powerful guard as was well illustrated by his sterling performance in the Durfee game. His power as an able debater and interesting speaker was shown at the Lyceum debates. It is surprising that a chap like this should chose Latin as his favorite study hut—. Next year Providence College will claim “W alt.” Undoubtedly he is one of the best. VIOLA GARDINER T1LLINGHAST (“Vi”) Motto: “He who hesitates is lost.” CASTS “ICI ON PARLE ERANCAIS,” “CHARM SCHOOL” (4) Vi ' is that tall stunning looking blonde who has traveled every day on our “pullman electrics” from the renowned hamlet of Savlesville to Room 29. “Vi” is one good sport, and is always ready to go to a game or a dance with some jolly crowd. “Vi” has been very popular in Dramatics having been a member of the casts and the Property Manager of “Green Stockings.” “Vi’s” favorite study is applied design. She certainly is talented in that line as is shown by many remarkable posters she has made for school activities, as well as by many little trinkets. Next year will see “Vi” just as jolly as ever continuing her works of art at the Rhode Island School of Design. HELEN AGNES TOHER (“Helen”) Motto: “A kindness is never lost.” MEMBER CAST OF “OUR CAREER” Helen must have heen blessed by a fairy godmother with an everlasting smile, for we never see her sans smile. Helen is a very careful young lady. She breezes through school as if she were playing a game, and chooses applied design as her favorite subject. Yet, in spite of all this, Helen acquires a verv good-looking row of marks on her reports. Helen is interested in Dramatics, and won a reputation as an actress in “Our Career.” When it comes to cheering for P. H. S. Helen is riiht there as one of our best rooters. She intends to swe'l the ranks of Rhode island College of Education next year. 1922 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 43 HAROLD SAMUEL TORNQUIST (“Swede”) 'O' Motto: “Better late than never.” CLASS FOOTBALL (4) Ladies and gentlemen, here we have a blond, square-headed boy who delights in study periods, oral themes (? ) His favorite study is algebra. He says, “Two b or not two b, that is the question.” His motto has special reference to theme days. His most profitable periods are spent in Mr. Arnold’s woodworking shop where he so skillfully handles the tools and buzz-saws. He still has all his fingers. He has not decided what he will do next year. Going, going, gone! Sold to that little lady in Room 26. Good luck, Harold! EVELYN LOUISE TRUESDALE (“Eve”) Motto: “Always forget wlial you can’t remember.” CLASS SECRETARY (4), “prom” COMMITTEE (3) Here’s “Eve,” one of our jolly good sports who has come to us all these four happy years from out on the Prairies. Now we know where she gets her rosy cheeks. Yes, “Eve’s” a stunner, no wonder she’s been a model in fashion shows. Well, “Eve” also likes camp life and club life, let alone dancing. Yes, she also likes traveling, we mean visiting New Bedford week-ends. Some day “Eve” expects to wear a nurse’s cap. She’ll make the hospital so cheery for her patients, that they’ll be singing. “I Don’t Want to Get Well.” She also likes her studies, chemistry being her favorite. In the near future we’ll see her at Rhode Island State College, where we know she’ll make a name for herself. GEORGE FRANCIS VIAULT Motto: “Carpe diem.” Enter the dashing Lochinvar of Room 29. We don’t know whether the size has anything to do with it, but he is not poorly supplied with fair damsels. George enjoys the present day in company, but alas! he has a failing of the well-proportioned and has to resort to the junior class for his material. George has a never failing smile even when “swiped” by an eraser during an exhibition of practical ballistics it refuses to coine off. His life field of w'ork is uncertain as is his destination after he graduates. He is going to some college but hasn’t picked out the lucky one. Wherever he goes he has the best wishes of P. H. S. and 1922. JOSEPH VOSDANIGIAN (“Varsity,” “Joe,” “Duke”) Here smiles forth, the only rival of Rodolph Valentino, “Joe’ Vos-danigian. Joe exhausted the supply of vampable girls in P. H. S. and sought elsewhere. In spite of his inexhaustible supply of humor and his uncontrollable desire to make us all laugh, Joe has done creditably in his studies and expects to enter Holy Cross College next fall. “Varsity” has been “stepping out” somewhat, lately, in diagonally striped toes and elkskin “kicks.” He’s probably getting all set to vamp the Worcester girls, next year. Go to it, “Duke and we’ll have you make out wills when you start to practice. PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 1922 4T JOHN MARTIN WHALEN (“John”) Motto: “Verbum sat sapienti.” John joined our ranks in our Junior year and since then has been one of our science sharks. Whenever the teachers wanted to hear a prepared pupil, they called on John. This year he turned as a debater and won many verbal battles in Room 17. Every fall. John goes to New York, so he is well acquainted with wavs of the world. He'll need this knowledge to fathom the mysteries lurking in every corner at Brown next year. Good luck, John. MARION JEANNETTE WHITELEY Motto: “Be thoughtful of the future.” Marion is that quiet little miss who sits in Room 29. She is quiet, however, only to a casual observer, for Marion is anything but quiet when among her crowd. Yes. Marion likes school and has taken the Commercial Course w ith much success. She claims her favorite study is typewriting. Naturally we should think that she was going to enter the business world. But we’re wrong this time, for next year Marion expects to enter R. I. C. E. where the best wishes of P. H. S. go with her. I)A II) THOMSON WILSON (“Dave”) Motto: “Perseverance will win!” Well, it if isn’t our friend Dave. Dave, or Skinny, as he is called by some of his friends, has a very unusual habit of dreaming in his classes (who is she, Dave?), but by some remarkable power he awakens just in time to hear his name called, and is very seldom caught. Due to his great ability ( ? I in Algebra, he has become great friends with Mr. Crosby (keeps him company till 2GAO every day I. His motto is, “Perseverance will win,” and he is doing his best to live up to it. His favorite studv is mechanical drawing and he surely can draw. Dave intends to enter the R. I. School of Design next fall to take up a mechanical course. EDNA WOOD (“Teddy”! Motto: “Things worth doing are worth doing well.” Yes, you know Ted W ood. If you don’t, well—some day you II see her name in papers on posters, for Teddy is our expert poster maker and artist. Her motto shows her spirit and her marks certainly guarantee this saying. Applied Design is her favorite study and she usually gets better than a 5. Next year Ted expects to enter R. I. College of Education, but we expect somedav to hear her called the rival of J. M. Flagg although she does set out to lie a teacher. 1922 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 45 7 JULIUS ARTHUR ZUCKER (“Jules’)’ Motto: “Better late than never.” TRACK (3) (4), MINSTREL SHOW COMMITTEE (4). CASTS “OUR CAREER,” “TWO CROOKS AND A LADY,” “CREEN STOCKINGS,” “CAESAR’S GHOST” Here is a fellow whose name in P. H. S. has become synonymous with service! (For every play and for the minstrel show, in fact, for every school activity, he has worked day and night with his faithful Cadillac.) He was one of the few in school to earn his track letter in his junior year. It is a familiar sight to see Zucker chasing potatoes at a breakneck speed to win a medal. He says that he is going to honor M. I. I. with his presence for a few years, and we are sure that if he treats that school as he has treated P. H. S., that he will make a success of his career. Go to it, kid. but keep away from those Back Bay boulevards, and forbear to banter anv Boston belles. (j)1 CHESTER B. WHITMAN (“Chet”) “Chet” came to our institute of higher learning after having imbibed all the knowledge that a foreign (Massachusetts) high school could impart. His (insatiable desire for education has certainly placed “Chet” in with the faculty. M—m—m. his marks make our teeth water. Chester is really a very handsome lad. and although his shyness prevents us from printing his beautiful physiognomy, we feel sure that all the girls will remember him by name alone, and that their hearts will jump from the thrills. Good luck and the sincere wishes go with you. Chet. 46 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 1922 HISTORY OF THE CLASS. FRESHMAN YEAR EN the second Monday of September, 1918, the renowned class of 1922 enrolled as students of Pawtucket High School. From the very beginning of our career in P. H. S. we were distinguished, for we were the largest class that ever entered the doors of the school, and we hoped that we were the most intelligent. On that first day in high school we were allowed to explore every room in the building, for at that age we know nothing about Mr. Crosby’s “Student Traffic Rules,” which soon became a topic of great concern. It took a few weeks to accustom ourselves to the many changes from grammar school to high school. To have the morning to ourselves, a whole half day in which to sleep, seemed bliss indeed. But alas! someone is always taking the joy out of life. We soon began to realize the burden that a quest for a higher education imposes, when our teachers gave us such lessons in Latin, algebra, and ancient history as made our late morning naps resemble night-mares. It was a new thing to have a different teacher for every study, but we soon came to see the good points of that system. If we got an instructor of whom we were not over fond, we had to endure him for only one period. Then, too, the constant ascending and descending of stairs gave us needed recreation. At first we were like sheep and followed the crowd, as we could rarely remember where we belonged. Throughout our wanderings we could never get out of range of the hallguard, who seemed to us a sort of traffic cop who gave necessary information and steered us right, and also to our grief, brought us to “court” for the slightest misdemeanor. Nevertheless, we overcame, in time, all the difficulties which confront freshmen and then settled down to the steady “grind” of school life. During that memorable year we marvelled at the many changes in the faculty, many of us getting acquainted with four English teachers in the course of the term. Mr. Blanchard came to the school as teacher of geometry and as athletic coach. Mr. Davis succeeded Mr. Davison as sub-master of the school, Mr. Davison leaving to become professor of chemistry at Brown University. Mr. Wolfe came to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Mr. Howard of the Chemistry Department. It was at this time, too, that Miss Ruth MacGregor paid the supreme sacrifice for her country. Our class wras made worthy of P. H. S. by its indefatigable support of the football team. We all broke our penny banks to aid the Athletic Association, which is the source of a large percentage of school activities. A terrible epidemic of influenza closed our schools for six weeks, and those of us who were lucky enough to withstand the onslaught of disease enjoyed an addition to the summer vacation, but on our return we had forgotten all that we ever knew about P. H. S. It seems that our entrance into high school marked an era of peace, for on November 11, the Great War was brought to a close and we all turned out to celebrate the occasion. It was decided by a unanimous vote of all concerned that there should be no school, so the day was spent in unequaled revelry over the defeat of the tenacious Hun. A fire broke out under Room seventeen which rendered that room useless as a classroom for a number of weeks. Some of our classmates wondered why fate had not given them the privilege of having seventeen for a classroom for all five periods. With the coming of the spring, the baseball season began. Although we did not produce a champion team, we did our best and upheld the name of our school wherever the team played, and we felt that the team would win the championship if our voices wrere allowed to be heard on the diamond instead of in the classroom. As our first year drew to a close we began to feel a little more important, and were now able to find our desired classrooms at the right time. 1922 PAWTUCKET HICH SCHOOL 47 and Mr. Wolfe began to feel that he could allow our infantile hands to touch the delicate apparatus in the “chem” laboratory without his watchful eye upon us. We learned that all the talk about the Gleaner Office on the fifth floor was bunk, and we soon began to advance opinions, ever changing, concerning the identity of the Tattler. Now we looked forward to the time when we should go to school in the morning and enjoy the priveleges of the older students. SOPHOMORE YEAR We returned as sophomores, having already in the course of one brief year given the world more than an inkling that we were to be the most illustrious class in the history of the school. Vie thought at first that the greatest joy of Freshman year, the morning sleep, was now impossible; but we finally became accustomed to the feeling of being late and slumbered as peacefully as we had the year before. Toward the Freshmen we felt as all sophomore classes have felt; and added to that feeling was genuine pity that they should be compelled always to follow in the wake of glorious beings like ourselves. One of our newly acquired privileges was that of joining in the general scramble for the delicious food set forth every day at eleven twenty. At first we were polite and waited to get our lunches in turn, but the upper classmen by advice and example soon showed us the futility of such a procedure. In two w'eeks wre could hold our own with the most ill-mannered. We began to attend chapel regularly and listened with awe to the proceedings; from the back seats of the hall if we were lucky; if not. from a limited number of weak stools. We welcomed several new teachers, among them Mr. Ruff our assistant principal. Early in the fall. Miss MacKenzie was appointed head of the French Department. Miss Curtis returned to us after some months of overseas service and delivered a most interesting address before the assembled school. We could now attend football games without bunking. So profound was our knowledge of this sport that at the end of a game we were often uncertain of the outcome, but we were usually safe in guessing that our almost-chain-pion team was victorious. The track team had a very successful year and crowned its victories by taking the winning place in the Narragansett Federation meet. Many sophomores attended the annual junior dance, which, owing largely to our support, brought very big returns. Among other addresses which we heard at morning excercises was one by Mr. Wm. E. Holler, campaign director of the Chamber of Commerce, in which he interested us in the drive to improve our city. So effective was the heating system, installed the year before, that we were spared the disappointment of being sent home because the building w'as cold. The winter was so severe, however, that on one or two occasions there was no school for the day. The annual Minstrel show was noisy, and well attended, and may therefore be called a complete success. A most daring senior freak day filled our hearts with delight and inspired us with great respect for our sister class. The girls of the Domestic Science Department served a dinner of their own production to the unoffending Business Men’s Association. They followed this by a luncheon to the School Committee and the Rotary Club. After several months of rehearsing the “Pair of Sixes’’ was very well presented by the dramatic society. The Lyceum did itself, and the school, honor throughout the year, and terminated its season by a great mock trial held before a highly delighted audience. Toward the close of school we had elections for class officers. From a host of talented geniuses, we tried to choose four people who should ably represent us during the coming year. School was over and we looked forward to coming back as juniors. JUNIOR YEAR At this period of our school life we began to feel exceedingly important, for we were an organized class and there was only one class above us, only one more step to the heights of our ambitions. The junior “pep” and “push” was felt on the football team which fought hard for the championship. but it was unable to capture the longed-for and well-deserved-trophy. The class contributed freely towards the expenses of our athletic association and junior girls tagged at our football games. The P.H. S. indoor track team proved to be a banner one, as it carried away all the honors in every meet that it entered. For the fifth time the P. H. S. athletes won practically all the points in the Annual Narragansett Federation Meet. Our Junior “Prom” was heralded with great applause and it proved to be a greater success. 48 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 1922 This had long been looked forward to by all of us especially by the girls, that is, if their conversations was to he the judge, for we heard silks and satins discussed with much more fervor than plain geometry and the works of Shakespeare. While the boys outwardly regard everything as commonplace, we know that many of them received minute instructions as to their return to the home nest, and the burning question with them was. ‘‘Will I. or will I not?” The “not’s” won. we are sorry to say. We were deprived of the usual custom of going into mourning after the senior “freak day” since “freak day” itself did not materialize, the reason being that the faculty believed that the seniors were freakish enough in classes without providing a special day for the display of the follies of that day. In December the Dramatic Society produced the first play of tin year; in March it presented another play. The few juniors in the casts showed great ability and promised good material for the coming year. But the greatest dramatic event was the Annual Minstrel Show which, so far. excelled any other production that it played to crowded houses on two nights. Certain members of our class received such astounding applause. that they began to think seriously of making minstrelsy their life work. This was the year that aquatic sports began to make themselves a part of the athletic life of our school. Due to the extraordinary ability of our fellow classmen, the Swimming Team succeeded in launching the (lag of P. II. S. in the pool of the Interscholastic League consisting of three Rhode Island high schools. As usual the snows of winter passed away and the birds of spring were heard by the candidates for the Varsity Nine which succeeded in winning second place in the League. Nothing but first place could content us in Track. The eagerly anticipated meet at Kingston was a joyful one to us, though the kind of a day that it was may have well expressed the feelings of our competitors, but the down-pour meant nothing to us, for our present captain won the 100 yd. dash even if he did lose one shoe in the mud. By the end of the season it looked as though some members of the team would suffer a physical strain caused by carrying an excessive weight of trophies around the school. In May we elected officers for our senior year and committees for our senior festivities, now only one more year away! SENIOR YEAR A surprisingly large number of the class came back to take the prominent place of seniors. Some of the teachers said that we were gluttons for punishment and so they immediately rearranged the schedule, making us all stay until two o’clock. The first blow that fell was in the form of carpenters. They descended upon us and ascended to our beloved assembly hall which they began to tear up ruthlessly and make into small rooms. No more chapel, no more loss of the eight-thirty to eight-forty study period, and worst all no more missing of the first hour. The effects of this horrible, tragedy were scarcely over when we began to stagger under a new one. We were to have a vacation on October tenth and eleventh and twelfth while Pawtucket celebrated her two hundred and fiftieth birthday. There was great rejoicing because one of these days was the twelfth which would lx a holiday anyway. In a most spectacular celebration the high school took its part in the exercises at Wilkinson Park, and in the great parade with an industrial and classical float. The spectators massed on the sidewalk missed both Mr. Hosmer and Homer from the classical float. We returned to school and tried to master the new and complicated Tuesday schedule; strange lunch hours, shortened periods, and orchestra prac tice. The last was by far the hardest to become used to. On Armistice Day the junior and senior classes met in the hall to hold commemorative exercises. Although we did not win the coveted place of interscholastic champions, our football team was one to lx proud of. At about this time a loving guide and influence came into our lives to control our destinies, the Parent-Teacher Association. We began to realize just how miserable life had always been without this helping hand. We soon had the privilege of listening to an address on disarmament by Mrs. Meade. The girls started an innovation in the form of an athletic association of their own. After many hours of deep discussion they finally began to practice basketball, swimming, and tennis. The members of the largest dramatic society in the history of the school showed much talent and initiative. They planned to give a short one-act play every month and were very successful in the presentation of “Our Career.” “Two Crooks and a Lady,” and “Ici on Parle Fran-cais.” Later, a clever three-act play entitled “Green Stockings” was remarkably well por- 1922 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 49 trayed. The senior play, presented late in the spring was a big success. Our freak day was wholly a matter of correspondence. The track team took honors and cups straight through the year, and the many fine athletes were loaded down with medals. Among the minor activities, swimming and hockey must l e mentioned. In both of these sports, the boys showed a keen interest and great ability. About the middle of the year ancient and time-honored custom of the permanent list was revived, and scores of delighted pupils were given an excuse to linger longer in the halls of learning. The junior dance was successful and the annual Minstrel Show was the best ever. The I yceum argued its way through the year for the greater part successfully. The Gleaner board had a party in the spring. The class supper and the senior reception were affairs long to l e remembered by us all. And now another class goes forth from its beloved high school. Though its members may wander far in the course of time, they part with a silent pledge never to forget but to cherish always the memory of happy days at P. H. S. 50 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOI 1922 CLASS PROPHECY I_______________________ HE TWO august prophets of the Class of 1922 upon looking over the class list were confounded and dumfounded bv the magnitude of the proposition with which they were confronted. An immediate council of war took place, with the result showing forty-eight cents in pennies and two much-used one-cent lunch room tickets. Hastily abandoning histories, encyclopedias, cook books and other authorities used in the prophet business, they streaked for the station. Upon boarding the side door Pullman, copious draughts of water were drunk. Immediately, heavy slumber overtook the remains of the once well-known prophets. How long a time elapsed they do not know, but. upon coming to, they found bending over them as they lav sprawled on a station baggage truck, Leonard Luther, who was station-master. He answered their questions by saying they were in the city of Twenitoo with the rest of the class whom they had left to work out their own fates. He told them, upon inquiry, that they could take a hack to the hotel. “Hack” was a good word, for upon rounding the station who should confront them but Jim Barrv. erstwhile station-driver, sitting atop a sadly dilapidated conveyance, and who, between trips, dusted the streets. After a few hours of torturesome journey, they arrived at a ramshackle building which, a sign on the front informed them, was “The Three Decker.” The manager and owner, George Decker, had named it after his first three children. The pen was handed to us bv Alzada Jarvis who alternated on the log-book and the hand elevator. Mildred Fairweather was George’s stenographer, rattling the keys to the tune of the pots and pans in the kitchen, handled by “Al” Brown, who had learned the art while working in his father’s elite restaurant. Nathaniel Griffith, they learned was confined to his room with a bad case of writer’s cramp, contracted while writing menu cards. Katheryn McGarry and Catherine Garriepy ably assisted George in the capacity of chamber-maids. Inquiring about the whereabouts of the dining room they were informed that they would have to eat at the Greek restaurant next door and so they journeyed thither but upon seeing the face of Joey Vos-danigian above the urns, they thought they would try a place down the street which, a sign informed them, was the “Campbell and Campbell Beanery;” none other than Albine and Doris Campbell in the “eats” business. Alice Carrol was the snappy waitress. They asked the cashier, Ruth Barrowclough, where they could locate the theatre and she told them it was located next to Ross Andrew’s Five and Ten Cent store, hut she could not tell them what was billed. So, on going outside, they hailed a news'e, their old chum, Harry Eatough. “Telltale Sir,” “Telltale” he cried. Of course they weren t hut they bought the paper anyhow. While looking for the theatre announcements, they saw, under the caption of “Editorial Staff,” the name of Johnny Graham as Editor in-Chief and Francis Hadley, Editor of “Counsel to the Lovelorn,” and also Phil Robinson, reporter. Some of the “ads” in the paper interested them as they recognized names once familiar to them. Some of them were“Horace Barker and Helen Malony-Russian Ballet Dancing,” Milton Roy and Mildred Freeman in “Lessons on a Typewriter. in two parts. Roy Donatos was on the stage also. He had made quite a name for himself as the “ham” in “Hamlet.” Edith Delaive was his leading lady. This was too much to miss, thought they, whereupon they entered and and bought their tickets from Isabella Coughlin. They were ushered to their seats by Mildred Clegg and as it was still intermission, they looked around for someone they knew. Their search was rewarded. Directly across from us sat Nellie Roberts and her husband, who was a former student at P. H. S., hut who was now engaged in the business of truck driving. The plays were all acted to perfection, but the one we liked best was the one given by James Brennan, the contortionist. One of the prophets was ordered out by Anna Gahan, manager of the theatre, for throwing an 1922 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 51 egg at Donatos and making the poor washerwoman, Marjorie Brown, remove it from the scenery. He was rewarded, however, for this dastardly trick, for when coming out he walked under a ladder upon which Annis and Edith Brown were standing, cleaning windows. A bucket of water fell over him and drenched him. He came to, spluttering and muttering. His suit was spoiled but yet he was lucky, for Louis Corembaum was on the scene gesturing furiously and offering to sell him a cheap suit from his establishment nearby. He bought one there from Julius Zucker, one of Louis’s clerks. The prophets’ faces were dirty, so both of them went to a beauty parlor conducted by Mary Doorley and Dorothy Hunt. Sybil Hyde was in there also; she was the town vamp, and was preserving her charms. One of the prophets waited while the other was beautified. While looking out of the window, he saw Doris Green, the Mexican athlete go by at a very fast pace; a pace so fast indeed that she could have stalked a snail twenty yards and beat him to the tape in a hundred yard dash provided aforesaid snail had rheumatism. When they came out they noticed that they were hungry and went into a grocery store with a sign tacked on the outside reading, “Cole and Wood,” groceries. They went in and found out that the two partners were their old school chums, Eddie Cole and Edna Wood. Edna, they learned, had painted the sign that hung above the door. While there, they were introduced to Edward’s wife, Alice Crawford, who had won fame in the “Follies.” Ruth Fuller was there also as his stenographer. When they opened the door they came face to face with Gertrude Cullen. She wore a face a mile long and when they inquired the trouble, she said she needed it in her business. When they inquired further into the business she said she was Jim HelTern’s assistant in the undertaking business. They probably would have talked longer, had not Laura Brinton come along with her hand-organ and interrupted them. The monkey, who looked suspiciously like Walter Tierney, was an in-sistant little fellow and made Gertie walk away. Thev watched her as she went down the street and presently she stopped to talk with Mary Er-skine who ran a dairy farm and who had Edith Feeley employed as a milkmaid. Mary’s water bills, however were terribly large. The two pro-••hets glanced down the road to see a man be-grimmed with dust and dirt approaching. If he hadn’t spoken, the prophets would never have recognized him. He spoke, however, and it was Osborne Briden, who now worked in the gas house. Marion Harrington was the unfortunate one who had married him. They inquired as to who the staid, solemn-looking man on the other side of the street was and learned that it was Chester Whitman, town parson. They invited the clergyman to have a drink of soda with them and Chester accepted, so they went into a drug store where George Bradley was the soda-jerker. In there, talking with George, was Gap Martin, the plumber, talking- about (his ill-gotten gains, and spending it on an ice-cream soda. He was mad because Harold Tornquist and Norman Swindells, manufacturers of tin whistles, had made more money than he, last week. While talking over the matter. Earnest Lamothe walked in. a cigar stuck in his mouth. Back of him came Byron Cook, his assistant. These two were politicians of the worst type. “Bus’s” soothing voice convinced all who heard him. Cook was I.aMothe’s puppet, so it looked, but they learned that Cook was, in reality, waiting ’till Lamothe threw the cigar stub away so Byron could pick it up. “Bus” got rather careless with the cigar and laid it on some celluloid adorning the counter and soon the place blazed out. They could not stop it so George ran in a call for the fire department. Robert Patton soon arrived with his water bucket and put it out in time to save Marion and Mildred Richardson’s bakery that stood next door. All the reporters were there on the scene including Priscilla Ralcliffe. The thing that anaered the prophets most, was Ruth Smith and Ida Sweet, lady detectives, snooping around the premises, trying to find out how the fire started. The only casualities were Grace Kaveny who received a broken skull and sundry other such slight bruises, but after being treated by Doctor Elmer Stackpole and his nurse, Evelyn Truesdale, Grace was able to go home in an ambulance. One of the horses sprained his foot, hut he was treated by Russell Bray, veterinary surgeon, or commonly known as the horse doctor. Florence Breed was Bray’s nurse and we considered the horse lucky. Evelyn Birch. Bradley’s stenographer, kept her head cool during the fire by putting ice on it. They left that place in a hurry. The flames reminded them of a place they were trying hard to forget. They went into the public library, where George Viault was librarian assisted by Cvnthia Barlow. They asked George for a “Who’s Who in Twenitoo,” so they could find more of their comrades. They learned that Arthur Rustigian was a hill board painter, and that he was a handy man with the paint. Hek, they had learned, had painted the town red several times. His wife, Helen Toiler, rivalled 52 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 1922 him in the use of paint, although she applied it to places other than hill boards. Eleanor Me A levy was the town’s dog catcher, and was assisted by Gertrude Leddy. who acted in the capacity of dog house inspector. Leo McDonald, the town’s mail carrier, handed them and envelope in which was an invitation to visit John Duffy and Hugh McCaughy, who kept a batchelor Hoboes’ boarding house. John had secretly married Alive Fagan and Hughev knew nothing about it for he would have dissolved partnership, because “Mac” was still bashful when ladies appeared. While on the way to Johnny Duffy’s they heard a great hollering and ballyhooing, and there on a soap box stood John Harvey, waving a red bandanna and talking Bolshevism to half a dozen kids, a deaf and dumb man and Ralph Fielding, the brown derby boy. Everett Fairweather stood in back of Johnny with hands full of bombs. They spied “Hank” Potter tearing down the street. Harvey and Fairweather dropped the bombs when they saw the limb of the law. for Potter had turned protector of the peace. The prophets kissed each other good-bye, but it was alright for the bombs were no more or less than odd sized bowling balls. This demonstration was scandalous, but the tow n was gradual I v being cleaned up and the youngsters taught better, for Marguerite Kent, in the guise of a lady reformer, was working wonders. And Lucy Russell, teacher in a little white, not red, schoolhouse, was teaching the youngsters their gazintas-one gazinta two-once and Lucy also had them singing “Fight for old P. H. S.” This little incident delayed them considerably, so they decided to take an aerial taxi. Thev took an elevator up to the sixteenth floor of one of the stations and climbed into a seat in the areo-busses. The driver turned aro� � nd to take the fare and who should it be but Harold Goff. He and Charley Macomber had gone into the business and were making quite a success out of it. Of course, a few passengers dropped off every now and then when Goff made nose-dives, but outside of this and a few law suits for damages inflicted, things went pretty well. After paying the fare, they were out of change, so they told Harold to let them off at the bank. Upon going inside, who should they find signing the blank checks hut John Whalen. Upon asking John how he kept track of all his pennies, he took them over to a corner and they shook hands once more with Jacob Goodman, now a statistician. Whalen had a fast and careful bank messenger in Dorothy Riley. They left the bank and were stepping off the sidewalk, when thev were pushed from l ehind by a little bit of a fellow, piled so high w ith bundles, he couldn't see. They lifted a few off him in order to express their sentiments about a little fellow like him pushing them around, and who should it be but Roland Letourncau, looking like a wet hen. He told them he had married Mabel Boyle, the town suffragette and had suffered ever since. Just as they were leaving Roland, they were once more shoved into the street. This time it was by a quintet capacity baby carriage, pushed by Anna Cullen, who had embarked in the day nursery line. She complained that the business was very poor on account of competition along the same line by Louise Browning. She said she didn't care much as she was getting back at Louise by having her assistants, Grace Kenyon and Eliza-beth Morse, put plaster of Paris and arsenic in the milk that Jeannette Fortier poured out at the nursery run by Louise. Of course all’s fair in love, war and the day nursery business, so the prophets decided that things weren’t so bad after all. When they left Duffy's club it was still early so after a bite to eat at the Py-An club, conducted by Walter Tierney, they decided to go see Clare McHugh, famed movie actress, in “Why Boys Go Back Home.” When they came to search for the necessary money to go, they remembered that they had secured none at the bank as they meant to do. The excitement at seeing their two old cronies. It was necessary for them to turn into a shop that looked suspiciously like a Pawn shop. When they entered, they found Larry Flynn behind the counter with a telescope or something in his eye, looking at an overcoat, belonging to Fred Shulver. Fred conducted a cafe around the corner, and was trying to pawn his last year’s overcoat in order to obtain a this year’s straw hat. Lawrence gave them three dollars apiece for watches worth fifty, and told them their shoes were dusty. He said that Gertrude Keenan and Gertrude Kelly were conducting a shoe shine parlor next door to him, under the name of “The Two Gerties.” They found out from Gertrude Keenan that George Faber was also working, much to their surprise. He had secured a job with the telegraph company. and it was said that the tricycle he rode during his journeys hither and thither, was the apple of his eye. George Taber was fas!, however, for when he was sent out with a message, he returned before any of the other messenger hoys. They thought this wonderful of George, and felt a tinge of proudness for their classmate until they learned that there was only one messenger boy. The prophets left the Shine Parlor and 1922 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 53 walked down the street, only to bump into two confidence men, Eugene Keenan and Ambrose Horton, trying to fleece poor David Wilson, a blacksmith. They learned that the two confidence men were trying to sell David the oyster rights in the Pawtucket river to him for three years duration. After they got talking to the confidence men, the prophets asked them how business was and they told the prophets that Francis Sent had spoiled the business by overflowing the town with counterfeit bills of his make, so that it made the business a very dangerous one, even after they separated some one from his cash. The prophets left these two classmates and travelled down the Main street of the town of Twenitoo. They would never had guessed it to be the main street if Charlotte Schaffer, the traffic officer, had not informed them that it was. The prophets thought it was the graveyard l ecause it was so dreary and forlorn looking. Charlotte told them that the graveyard was located on the outskirts of the city, and that George Morrow was sexton there. Anna Plotkin and Maud Smith worked there as gravediggers, and from reports the prophets learned that these two old classmates were very handy with the shovel. They took a trolley car to the graveyard, on which Dorothy Johnson was the conductor, and found Lewis Kilbourn there. Oh no! He wasn’t dead or anything like that. He was still alive and kicking. The fact is that he had just kicked a gravestone and was emitting sounds that a dead person could never make. They asked Lewis what he was doing and learned that his hobby was reading gravestones, and that he was a proffessor in the town’s college in which Charles McLaughlin was physical director. The college had a very small attendance, however, due to the fact that next door to it was a gymnasium in which Marion Whitelv swung Indian Clubs, and swimming tank in which Marion Smith and Francis Mason gave lessons in the art of swimming. It was in danger of being closed as several of the men had nearly escaped being drowned, since Ruth McLay became lifesaver in the gym. Barbara Leavens was the owner of the gymnasium. On the other side of the college and adjoined to it. stood the jail and they went in. The jail and the college were called the Siamese Twins. They looked exactly alike on the outside and were built by the same construction company. The only difference between the jail and the college was that there were cells in the jail. The same atmosphere pervaded both, and the inmates of both institutions had possessed that jaded. downcast look. The only difference between these two classes were that the jailbirds seemed a trifle happier than the students. When the prophets walked into the jail, they surprised Joseph McMahon, tin warden, playing poker with Jean Martin, the matron. They took the prophets through the prison and showed them the inmates. Winifred Lewis was there and by good behavior had become a trustee. Viola Tillinghast was too busy chopping rocks to return the salute of the prophets. They were also shown the electric-chair. built by Mary Leonard, who oiled and polished it night and day. Mary had been removed a short while ago from the position of executioner, because of the wholesale murders that had taken place, in order that the men might let our sweet little Mary kill them. After they had visited the prison, James Burns, one of the aldermen of the town, took them up to see the deaf and dumb school run by Doris Gabbi. Stella Fortin and Alice Donohue were also teachers here, trying to make Rose Berick talk with her hands instead of her tongue. Rose had lost her voice when her husband had once told her the truth. James also took 11s to the telephone station, where Agnes Anderson and Ruth Curran worked as “Hello” girls. They watched them for a short while and upon looking out of the window, saw Beatrice Farrel mixing cement, and Beatrice Pothier also there as carpenter. They learned that owing to the prosperity of Twenitoo. it was a public demand that the telephone station be enlarged. From other sources we learned, however, that only two people in the town had telephones. Dorothy Cobb who had married a millionaire, had one, and Edith Hutton who had married Fred Berick. the world-famed symphony leader, had the other. They asked to see the mills that the town possessed and James showed them the sawdust mill owned by Doris Steele. Doris had invented a way of turning sawdust into animal crackers and had made a fortune on it. Gertrude Robinson worked in the mill as the model for the parrot. Anna Quinlan had a bosses job once, but Doris had fired her for taking some of the sawdust home in her ears. Gertrude McCaughy was the janitor and all around helper. In spare moments she carved out moth balls, which Doris also manufactured as a side line. Fate, you see, had served them well. Their friends were leading such peaceful and pleasant lives that the prophets hated to embark for home. They finally decided not to leave, but to send for their families and settle down there 54 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 1922 and cast their lots with their former classmates. After two months of watchful waiting, Macomber grabbed the opportunity to help Fairweather make bombs, and “Shack” divorced his first wife and married Marion Hawes, who had made a million as sole violinist in Berick’s orchestra.

LaFrance - Faculty Coach Vice President - Secretary HE first meeting of the Lyceum was held on December 17th. the following officers presiding: Arthur Rustigian, ’22. President; Eugene Keenan, '22, Vice President: Francis LaFrance, ’23, Secretary: and Jacob Goodman, ’22, Treasurer. Later in the year Arthur Rustigian resigned the presidency and Edward Cole, ’22, was elected to succeed him. The debating season opened in January when several preliminary debates were held in preparation for the Brown League Debates. When the subject for the League Debates was announced, LaFrance, Rustigian and Brennan arguing the affirmative, defeated Harvey, Birtwell and Williams. The subject was. “Resolved. That Congress Reenact the Panama Canal Tolls Act of 1912.” Soon afterward, tryouts were held to select the team to represent Pawtucket in the League. From a dozen aspirants the following team was chosen by the faculty judges: Edward C. Cole, ’22, Captain: Walter Shackleton. ’22. and Jacob Goodman ’22, with Francis LaFrance, ’23, and Philip Robinson, ’22, as alternates. Mr. Crosby coached the team in preparation for its debates. Pawtucket, defending the negative of the above resolution won from Durfee High of Fall River in the first round. For the second round, Pawtucket again drew the negative, this time against the Rogers High of Newport, whose team proved to he far superior to the home debaters, winning by a two-one decision of the judges. The cup finally went to Taunton, which successfully debated the. negative against Rogers. 60 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 1922 FOOTBALL TEAM Ernest LaMothe...................Captain Edward C. Cole...................Manager Mr. Earl V. Good...................Coach SHT” LTHOl (HI handicapped at the beginning by a scarcity of seasoned material. Coach Good worked hard with the men that remained and the green candidates who reported and succeeded in shaping a team which played nobly through a long and adverse season. Lacking weight in the line, the team played the passing and open field game in a manner which bewildered their opponents. After defeating Cumberland in a practice game, the team journeyed to East Providence, where, by headwork and clever passing, we held the champions to a 7-7 tie. The next week we defeated Classical at Slater Park by a 26-0 score. Pawtucket's winning streak stopped there, for on the next Friday the Woonsoeketites came down, bringing the Jinx with them. Although the score favored them 14-0, the glory belongs equally to Pawtucket, for, with Benedict out with injuries, the team fought its way into scoring positions, only to be robbed by unfavorable circumstances, and played gamely ’till the last whistle. The team came back strong and defeated Cranston the week following, but was unable to do anything against our old rival, Hope, who handed Pawtucket the worst trimming in vears. When the dust cleared away, the score-board read, oh, horrors, 52-0! With the weight of that defeat upon them, the team did but fairly in the post schedule games, losing to Durfee in an exciting game, and defeating Cumberland and Attleboro, in rain both times. May the memory of that awful defeat by Hope rest heavily on the heads of all Pawtucketites till it is o'ershadowed by a reverse score twice as large! SWIMMING TEAM F. Lewis Kilbourne...................Captain George Decker........................Manager Mr. Charles Lawton.....................Coach OR the first time in years Pawtucket turned out a team capable of holding its own against teams of other schools. In spite of the scarcity of swimming teams in the vicinty. Manager Decker secured two meets, one with Technical High and one w ith Hope High. We won the former 45-7 and the latter by forfeit. Many good swimmers were brought out during the season. Caulfield, a freshman, proved to be the fastest man in school in the dashes and Harvey, a senior, was discovered to be the best distance swimmer. With three letter men left in school, Arthur, Caulfield, Swift and many other promising recruits, the school should continue for several years as champion in swimming. The The following made their letters, Arthur; Brennan; Caulfield; Cole; Decker, manager; Kil-bourn, captain; Segar, assistant manager; Har-ey; Swift; Potter. Arthur was elected captain for next year. 62 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 1922 BASE BALL TEAM Hugh McCaughey George L. Bradley Mr. Karl V. Good Captain Manager Coach LONG with the opening of the baseball season came the hope of having for the first time in eighteen years a championship team. Baseball spirit ran high among the pupils as more than forty candidates reported for first practice. The season opened on the eighteenth of April, when Cranston was defeated. West Warw ick forfeited and Hope was defeated 7-4. The first defeat was administered by our old rival. W'oon-socket. The team then took Classical and East Providence into camp, and ended the first half of the season in a tie with Hope for first place. In the second half Cranston was defeated and West Warwick forfeited again. In a battle for first place the team was defeated by Hope. With this defeat our hopes for a championship seemed to he shattered and Hope gained a firmer grasp on the pennant. All championship aspiration vanished when Woonsocket defeated the team a second time. This is the second time the pennant has been lost by a hairsbreadth in as many years. With the school divided next year and with the loss of four players it is hard to tell what will happen, but we hope that a more successful team will represent the school in the League. HOCKEY TEAM Hugh McCaughey......................Captain Arthur Rustigian....................Manager Mr. Earl V. Good......................Coach npriAWTUCKET’S second hockey season '-evl niight be termed a success. Although we did not succeed in winning the championship, or in performing other wonderful deeds, of like nature, we did succeed in bringing hockey into its own as a prominent athletic activity. For many years P. H. S. has been without hockey teams. Last year the school again adopted this sport and made a good beginning. This year we carried on the work further, and are in the hopes that hockey will soon be classed with our major sports, as it is in several colleges. With several veteran men and plenty of material, Pawtucket faced a hard winter’s work. Under the able leadership of Mr. Good and Mr. Shepard, the team worked faithfully. At all times, a remarkable spirit and enthusiasm was shown. Although Pawtucket fought hard in the first games, played against Cranston, the champions of 1921, the visitors had the favorable end of the score. Out of the schedule of ten games, Pawtucket won two and tied one. Although, judging from appearances, this is not a brilliant season’s work, and nothing to boast of, it goes to show that great things may be expected in this line of sport, as it gradually works its way up to the place it once held in the athletic curriculum of our school. 64 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 1922 TRACK TEAM John Duffy Ralph Fielding Mr. Malco Williams TART1NG under a great handicap due to l°si'tg so many men by graduation, the Red and White developed into the best track team in the state. The first meet of the season was indoors with the Y. M. C. A. Juniors. The High School won by the overwhelming score of 39-20. The second indoor meet was the Interscholastic Indoor Championship Meet held at Pawtucket, to which all Providence High Schools, Woonsocket. Attleboro, Taunton, Cumberland, and Central Falls were invited. This was undoubtedly the largest High School track meet ever held in Pawtucket. Captain Duffy and Barry were tied for high point honors with 121 i points each. Each was presented with an individual trophy. Potter and Nichols cleared the bar at 5 feet 6 inches, while Barry, Lenz, and Duffy were tied at 5 feet 5 inches. Pawtucket won the meet by a very large margin. In the first outdoor meet, the Junior Interscholastic, at Brown field, Pawtucket was handicapped by lack of eligible men. Potter set the high jump record at 5 feet 6 inches, a remarkable height for Junior outdoor jumping. The first big outdoor meet was the R. I. Inter-scholastic Meet at Kingston. Due to an error in - Captain Manager Coach scoring Pawtucket was given a tie with Technical. There has been much discussion over this point which, however, is as yet unsettled. The Red and White Team captured all four places in the high jump and three places in the discus throw. Captain Duffv was the best performer, capturing 12 points. Pawtucket s first victory was secured by a narrow’ margin in the most closely contested meet in many years. This was the R. I. Interscholastic Meet held at Andrew’s Field. The premier honors shifted six times during the meet and the winner was in doubt until the final event. The final score was Pawtucket 10 5-6. Woonsocket 32 1-6. Hope 30 1-3, Classical 30. Cranston 16, East Providence 6 1-3 and English 1-3. Captain Duffy has headed the team very successfully this year and has been a big factor in securing points throughout the season. The team undoubtedly owes its success to the sterling coaching of Mr. Malcolm Williams. His untiring efforts have proved fruitful in turning out the best track team in the state. With so many point winners remaining with us the outlook appears bright for another championship team in 1923. R. Fielding, Manager 2K, 1922 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 65 THE DRAMATIC SOCIETY Elizabeth Morse.............President Edward C. Cole .... Vice President Jean Martin.................Secretary Ralph Fielding..............Treasurer Miss Flora S. Cnrtis - - • Faculty Coach HE season of 1921-1922 was the most successful one in the career of the Dramatic society. Although hindered by the lack of an adequate auditorium within the school, the society presented three one-act plays on the small stage available and two major plays of three acts on outside stages. The small plays served to develop material for the two large productions. The first, “Our Career,” was light comedy of a pleasing sort portraying college and social life. The second, “Two Crooks and a Lady,” was of a different sort. Written and played originally by the aspiring playwrights of English 17, Harvard, the plays disclosed the thwarting of the plans of two criminals, bent on securing the “Thirty-three. ’ by an invalid lady, whose only weapon was her keen mind. The intensive study and pratice in character portrayals was excellent preparation for the two long plays following. The last small play was of the same type as the first. The adventures of a love-crazed Frenchman and a jealousy-crazed “Cape Coast Slasher.” in a boarding-house at an English resort were well portrayed. “Green Stockings,” a comedy in three arts, was presented in March at the Y. M. C. A. The parts all showed excellent preparation and abilitv. Those who saw it will espe ially remember the fine work of Miss Hyde as “Celia Faraday.” The climax of the year came on June second, when the curtains rose on the first scene of the “Charm School. Lack of space forbids an extensive description of that excellent performance, but by that vehicle, the Society assumed a premier place in the amateur theatricals of the slate. No amateur company ever produced as difficult a play more successfully than did the Seniors. The Charm School.” The school and the city will long remember it. The bulk of the credit for the year’s success is due. not to the players, but to Miss Curtis, whose sterling coaching was responsible for the excellence of the character portrayals, and whose tireless energy and effort have made this season by far the l est. 1922 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 67 THE P. H. S. RADIO CLUB. M() G other important events the school year of 1922 saw the organization of - the P. H. S. Radio Club and the addi- ■ lion of wireless telegraphy and telephony to the list of the school’s non-curriculum activities. Fortunately, the difficulty of numbers was overcome by the advent of the radiophone broadcasting and the resulting increase in public interest. The Club was officially organized in February-under the supervision of the Science Department. The following officers were elected: J. F. Harvey, 22. President; George Brown, ’23; Vice President; Charles Fleming, ’23, Secretary; Julius A. Zucker. ’22. Treasurer. The school committee, on being approached, very kindly proportioned the sum of two hundred dollars to the school for the installation of efficient receiving and transmitting apparatus. A very imposing aerial was erected on the roof of the school building, and various pieces of apparatus belonging to the members of the club were tested while we awaited the arrival of the club set. The set arrived in April and brought with it a widespread increase in interest. The faculty as well as the student body seemed anxious to hear a radio concert. On April 31, a concert was given in the school hall, music being received from the Shepard Co. of Providence. THE SCIENCE CLUB. HE Science Club is one of the new organizations at P. H. S. Organized under the influence of Mr. Wolfe and Mr. Cobb, it has had an active career, giving its members opportunities of visiting various industrial plants where processes are carried on which are studied in connection with Physics and Chemistry. The officers for the past year have been James M. Helfern. President, who resigned, F. Lewis Kilbourn, who succeeded him, and John Graham, Secretary. The program committee consisted of E. II. Stack pole, 6. W. Briden, S. B. Se-zar and Ernest Pratt. The first trip of the season was an inspection of the local telephone exchange. This was supplemented by an illustrated lecture by Mr. B. M. Cronan, manager of the local exchange. I he next trip, a visit ot the plant of Cumming, Cleansers, where the many processes carried out in connection with a modern laundering and cleansing establishment were seen, was of particular interest to the chemistry students. In December. Mr. Mack of the faculty gave an illustrated lecture on astronomy, followed by an outside session of “star gazing.” In January a popular lecture on “Radio” was given by Mr. Raymond W. Farnham of the Dclancey Feleh Co. In February the Chemistry students were given an opportunity to review and add to their knowledge of bleaching, mercerizing and dyeing when they visited the Halliwell Company, where yarn is processed, and the Pawtucket Branch of the United States Finishing Company, where cotton cloth is bleached, mercerized, dyed and printed. Supplementing these trips was a vocational lecture by Mr. George W. Halliwell on textile chemistry, followed by a talk on the making of artificial silk. Of general interest was the trip to the Times Publishing Company in April. The whole process of making a modern newspaper, from news and telegraph to press and mailing room, was seen and explained. Upon the invitation of Professor H. F. Davison of Brown University, and formerly of Pawtucket High School, the Club visited the Brown science laboratories and attended a lecture by Professor Davison. In connection w ith the study of glass the plants of the National Lamp Works and the Rhode Island Glass Division of the General Electric Company were visited. The last trip of the season was a visit to the plant of the Pawtucket Gas Company. The processes carried out in connection with the manufacture of water gas and producer gas were demonstrated and explained.
