Good Tlie Message of ike PrincipaJ Titi ilfciiiiliim ' 3l HE CLASS of 19 33, East Providence High School, entered on its senior high school work at a time when the nation was entering on one of the most difficult periods of economic re- adjustment that the world has ever known. Back in September, 19 30, when most of our members of the graduating class enrolled here, a period of spec- ulation and easy money had definitely come to an end. All of us had found it necessary to take a reef in our sails and start on a prolonged program of retrenchment. During thc:e last three years we have heard of dire distress throughout the country and have wit- nessed in our own community a great deal of sacrifice and hardship. One of the direct results of the un- employment situation has been the astoundingly large increase in the num- ber of students that have remained in high school. This year ' s graduating class in this school is over forty percent larger than the class graduated in 1932. No doubt a great many members of this class would have dropped out of school had it not been for the difficulty in finding jobs. We can not escape from the fact that a great many of our stu- dents have pursued their work under trying financial circumstances in the home. It IS to the credit of our students and to the credit of the students of the high schools throughout the country that they have taken the turn of affairs philosophically and have gone about their tasks of preparing for the pre- carious business of making a living with a high degree of optimism. It is somewhat hazardous to attempt to predict what the next few years will bring, but it seems reasonable to assume that the prosperity of the country can not be retarded indefinitely. The ad- vancement that has been made in scien- tific fields and the many technological improvements that have been achieved should, in a well organized society, re- sult m a much higher standard of living than any we have yet known. It is quite essential that the young people graduating from our schools be prepared to meet the new conditions of this changing civilization. It is rather dif- ficult to determine at times just what changes are necessary in our educational system, just what opportunities should be presented to high school pupils.

The years wc have spent here have been happy and busy ones, but now they are over: we must go on. Some of us B s j s, will enter the world of business, others will go to college— we s ' Mi e separated and scattered through the country, and yet we shall be together here in this Crimson and m our memories. While we were here, by our struggles with the X s and s of Algebra, hy our attempts to juggle the red and black figures of bookkeeping, and by our efforts to make sense out of the writings of Caesar and the orations of Cicero, we have increased our mental ability, broadened our cultural back- ground, and added to our practical knowledge. While we have been doing these things, we have been learning m other ways. In athletics we learned the fundamentals of teamwork and sportsmanship: in dramatics, to speak our thoughts clearly, to question skillfully, and to argue cc)nvincingly. Ou musical talents we have contributed to the various musical organizations of the school, and have received in return a greater interest in, a wider knowledge of and a deeper love for music. By our activities in such organizations as the Hi-Y and the Girl Reserves we learned the joy of working for others, in the pursuit of our everyday school activities we have learned many valuable lessons— the value of friendship, the necessity for fair play, the comparative values of a smile and a frown,— these and many other priceless things have we discovered We have studied the first chapter of the great lesson of Life _ Now we must leave, and as we go let us say this: We have learned. Page nine GERTRUDE MURIEL ACRES 44 Shore Road, Riverside Certrude is tlie petite blonde who had a c-liance to try anotlier school, but only tor a while did she stay away. The call of E. P. H. S. was too strong to resist, so at the beginning of her junior year she returned to us. Since (iertriide is a .jolly companion, we shall not forget her. LAURA GLADYS ACRES 44 Shore Road. Riverside Laura also decided that E. P. H. was the better school. Laura is a quiet, demure girl to those who do not know her well, but to her intimate friends she is a good friend and an able entertainer. Surely hers is an envial)le disposition and one which will take her far. ELSIE VIRGINIA AGREN 159 Pavilion Ave., Rumford Elsie is a very energetic member of that gang which is seen and heard at 12:45 every day on the steps in the cafeteria. Her constant outbursts of wit and her amusing capers are known to us all. Her sense of humor will carry her through the difficulties of life. ELSIE MAY ALLEN 32 Read Street, Riverside Here ' s jovial Elsie! She never worries: tliprefore she is always happy. Elsie is usually in a hurry but manages to come into the class- room at the last warning bell. She has devoted a great deal of her time to the activities of I lie Glee Club and has added to our pleasure in listening to it. Page ten LOIS FRENCH ALLEN 9 Clifton Ave., Riverside Is slie quiet? Don ' t be deceived. This little miss and her friend Dot have had some very merry times at E. P. Much of her time has been spent in the library performing tasks which are a pleasure to her. Lois intends to enter the business world after attending Katherine Gibbs ' Secretarial School. MAHLON WHIPPLE ALLEN 23 Grove Avenue Mahlon is well known throughout the state for his athletic ability and throughout the school for his cheerful disposition. During his three years in high school he has starred on the football and baseball teams. He is now our class president, and as such has the best wishes of the class. HELEN RUTH AMBLER 123 South Broadway Were you asking to meet a girl who goes on her way quietly, serenely, and courageously? Here she is. If Helen had been in California, I believe she would have kept on working in spite of the earthquake! Those of us who know her well appreciate these qualities in her work and in her friendship. ERNEST VINCENT ANGELL 24 Ninth Street What a perfect dancer! This is an ex- clamation often heard when Ernie is seen tripping the light fantastic. But don ' t think that Ernie spends all his time dancing, for he has great ability in another of the finer arts— dramatics. He has taken part in many of our school plays and his acting is admired by all. Page eleven N ETHELYN ADA ANTHONY 316 Sutton Avenue Just glance at her picture, ladies and gentle- men, and see there the sweet, shy, demure Ethelyn. At least I always characterized her thus till I noticed her this past year in the study hall. Can she talk! Ethelyn was ap- pointed to the Crimson Board, but she resigned as she left in February. EARL EDWIN APPLEBY 59 Pavilion Avenue, Rumford This is Earl — rather a quiet boy — faithful in his studies and well liked by his friends. Don ' t be misled by his apparent serious demeanor. If you ever see him in action on the Rumford school car, you ' ll know what I mean. Good luck. Earl. ALICE VIRGINIA ARSENAULT 40 Ivy Street Alice and Helen compose the second set of sisters in our class. Alice ' s well known habit of arguing with her teachers has relieved the monotony of many a recitation. If anything goes wrong, Alice just makes a funny face and laughs. This is a trait which will go far towards easing the bumps of life. HELEN NORMA ARSENAULT 40 Ivy Street Helen should be very careful (but isn ' t) about whispering, for her deep voice carries readily and is easily recognized. She is a commercial student and has spent many a despairing hour trying to make those type- writer keys strike the way she wants them to. Helen ' s ready wit has won her many friends in E. P. Page ticelce JOHN HUNTER AYRES 3050 Pawtucket Avenue, Riverside Johnny, otherwise known as Shorty or Halt- Pint, is another one of our athletic heroes. His ' work as center on the basketball team was in a large measure responsible for some of those upsets in league basketball last win- ter. Johnny ' s classroom work has been above reproach and East Providence is proud to claim him. STANLE .E EST BALLj TOE Py ndin N vemv ' e A charmingismile and a iplfeasing personality belong u anleytJvho ' iiis gained recognition thi Ugl is untisjlal scholastic ability. Stanley has b« a capable dent manager of athletics and has also made aA excellent fencer. 1933 is proud of him and takes this opportunity to wish him every success in life. FLORENCE ROSE BASLER 25 Alford Street Florence is one of the large group known as happy-go-lucky. We like her because of her pleasant disposition and her ever-ready smile. We are confident that the future will bring success to her and so we join in giving her our best wishes. ELIZABETH ADELAIDE BATTLE 115 Vine Street Have you ever met a girl who is a shark in all her studies and still has time to be a friend to everybody? If not, let us introduce you to Betty. If any one wishes to know any- thing in Latin, ask Betty. Here ' s wishing you the best of luck. Betty. Page thirteen ALBERT MELVIN BLACKWELL 36S4 Pawtucket Avenue, Riverside Blackwell is an industrious young man. He lias divided liis time among plays, band, orches- tra, banking council, and innumerable outside activities. However, his studies have never lieeu neglected, and so he has gained a solid foundation for his higher education. Melvin is also aided by a saxaphone player ' s indif- ference to public opinion. MADOLIN ELIZABETH BLAXEY 426 Pawtucket Avenue, Rumford Madolin is one of those fortunate girls who have been blessed with curly hair. Her sweet disposition and good looks have won her many friends of both sexes. She is a diligent student and we hope that success will be hers in what- ever she undertakes. ELIZABETH WILLIAMS BOURNE 67 Ninth Street During her course in East Providence High Betty has gained many friends. This is due undoubtedly to her charming personality and friendly manner. Betty is popular, and Student Activities have claimed much of her time. Did she help us to win the cup for debating? I ' ll say she did! ' We ' re proud of you. Betty. JAMES ARTHUR BOYCE 35 Bluff Street, Riverside Seldom seen without an engaging smile, .limmie has been well liked by all. If it rains, he should won-y: if the sky falls, he should worry; if he hasn ' t had time to study, he sliould worry. You ' re a good pal, Jim. old boy, and many a good time have we had together. Page fourteen MILDRED DORIS BOYD 46 Central Avenue Dependable, helpful, industrious, ambitious. —Mildred in a nutshell. She ' s so petite. I thiulc we could put her in a nutshell, at that! Did she ever cause her teachers to worry? No! Did she ever annoy her neighbors? No! Did she ever come to class unprepared? No! What more could you wish? MARGARET HELEN AYERS BROADWAY 159 Dewey Avenue We have found Margaret very good-natured. She is always smiling and always ready for fun after her work is done. When you see her writing, you will envy her perfect penman- ship. She has done good work in her commer- cial studies and we are sure: that she will con- tinue to do so. DAA D RUSSELL BROOKE 54 Maple Avenue. Riverside Who is that snappy-looking fellow walking; down the corridor in plus-fours, gray socks, and a flashy, yellow sweater? Why our pop- ular Dave! During his three years he proved himself a competent tennis manager. He is a perfect dancer, a clever violinist, and last but not least a true friend to us all. EDNA MAY BROWN 22 Hazard Avenue Is anyone in need of a friend? She ' ll find one in Edna; for If ever a girl was true blue, she ' s the girl. Sweet, lovable, loyal, fun loving, industrious, cheerful; these are only a few of her characteristics. One seldom finds such depth of character in a high school student. Page fifteen VIOLET MAY BROWN 34 Dunbar Avenue This little miss surprises us by the manner in which she attacks her recitations. She is determined to receive good marks and devotes all her time in school to study. Felicitas, Violet. EVELYN LOUISE BUEGLIXO 91 Anthony Street On first meeting Eve, one might l)e led to believe that she is a very quiet young lady. She is, however, one of the liveliest members ot our class. Ask anyone who has happened to be near her during a basketball game. Eve is greatly interested in athletics and expects to enter a physical training college. RUTH MYRTLE BURTON 5S Fourth Street Ah-choo! Ah-chool No need to look for the guilty partyl Oh well, colds will be colds. Ruth is a mighty fine pal and is always ready to help others. Although senior rooms are on the first floor, the third floor seems to hold a great attraction for Ruth. How about it, Ruth? ELISE NORTON BUTLER 15 Pearce Avenue, Riverside Behold our Elise. No introduction to this petite blue-eyed miss is needed, for almost everybody knows her. She has gone about in her quiet way winning for herself a host of friends. (Not to mention Donald!) Best of luck, Elise. Page sixteen FREDERIC WATERMAN CADY 3328 Pawtucket Avenue, Riverside Presenting Fred, distinguislied by liis friendly grin and his shoclc of unruly liair. He comes from far-off Riverside, but he has friends all over the town. Fred is a very active member of the Hi-Y. He is a serious student and is certain to succeed in life. HENRY WILHELM CARLSON 241 Woodward Avenue You all know Henry well enough, so there is no need to introduce him to you. He believes in having his share of fun. Does he like the girls? Well, if you don ' t already know, we won ' t tell you. But we will tell you that he certainly knows how to play the clarinet. HANNAH ELIZABETH CARTER 174 Mauran Avenue Hannah is quiet and very studious. We think her motto must be Be seen and not heard too much . She has made many friends and has done her work very well. Her name is seldom missing from the honor roll. We know she will succeed because she does not shirk hard work. MARGARET ISABELLE CARTER 205 Central Avenue Now here is the most intellectual member of our class. Her friendliness, cheerfulness, fidelity and — oh. so many other fine character- istics have made her a friend to all. Pembroke will receive this fine student in the fall and we wish her the best of luck in her work there. Page seventeen OLIVE AMELIA CASARTELLO 73 Bourne Avenue, Rumford Do we all know Olive? Well, I guess we do. This lively young lady has a passion for ath- letics (and athletes) Olive is also a member of the Room 10 Terrors! All in all. Olive is one good sport, and we wish her the best of suc- cess in lier career as a nurse. EDWARD XAVIER CAULFIELD 17 Burgess Avenue We find Eddy the upholder of track honors for the class of ' 33. The sight of this chap, with his curly hair and blue eyes, coming into class with his pal Haslani after the bell has rung is not uncommon. Maybe we ' ll hear from Eddie in the next Olympic. WILLIAM WIGHTMAN CHAPPELL 33 Euclid Avenue. Riverside Rill has the disturbing faculty (disturbing to llie faculty, too.) of always being able to jnit and keep a roomful of otherwise serious students in hysterics. He is another of those who come from the distant land known as Riverside. Bill ' s popular with the girls as well as with the l)oys. LORING DU BOIS CHASE 227 Newman Avenue, Rumford Meet our editor, who has, by his untiring efforts and liy ihis clever ideas, made this year ' s e(ldtionv8 l he Crimson a great success. He has kWown fhimself accomplished in all fields — d amaticsV athletics, scholastics. Cer- tainly with these varied and rare gifts Loring will be sure to reach his goal. Page eighteen • VERA ALLAN CHILDS 204 Burgess Avenue If you don ' t know Vera by this time, you should get acquainted with her, for she is ever so much fun. A room is never dull when she is arouud to make witty remarks. Don ' t get a wrong impression of her though, for she also studies hard. We wish her the very best of luck. MAY EMMA CLARKE 1S3 Woodward Avenue Who is this dainty demoiselle with the beautiful red hair? Why, it is the laughing, jovial Mae whose good qualities are too numerous to mention. She has an unusually keen sense of humor and a giggle that would turn a Cheshire cat green with envy. Her good looks and charming personality brighten the corner wherever she may be. RONALD ARTHUR CLARK 2464 Pawtucket Avenue When Ronald first came to us in our senicr year, we decided that he was very quiet. Time proved that we were wrong, however, for his classmates found in him a very gay and in- teresting person. He has studied hard and has shown great ability as a member of the hockey squad. HELEN PRANCES COLE 26 Fifth Street Petite, fun-loving, and vivacious — this de- scribes Helen. Wouldn ' t you like to know her ' ? We guarantee that you will like her very much. If she were too fun-loving, she wouldn ' t bother to study, but we know that she is very industrious. She is musical, and is one of the mainstays of the orchestra. Page nineteen LOIS MIRIAM COLE 34 Russell Avenue ■ ' Music hath charms . — Lois has both. What would our orchestra have done without Lois and her violin? We all find this dark-eyed miss a jolly companion, and we are confident that her happy and cheerful disposition will make her a success later on. Here ' s success. Lois! DOROTHY LOUISE COLLINGHAM 203 Woodward Avenue Dot is quiet and has passed the greater part of lior time studying. As a result she is one of our honor students. Her straight A in de- portment is envied by her classmates, but in spite of this record Dot enjoys a good time. We ' ve often heard her merry giggle in the back of the room. PRISCILLA LOUISE COLLINS 30 Alice Street Quietly the door opens; a petite miss enters, lays a notice on the teacher ' s desk, and leaves without disturbing anyone. Who is she? Priscilla, of course. She is one of Miss John- son ' s amiable helpers. She is also an excellent dancer and an important part of all our school socials. What more could we say in her favor? ALBERT DAVISON COLWELL Seekonk, Mass. This young man hails from the wilds of See- konk. and with his pleasant grin and good dis- position he has made friends with all of us. We ' re certainly glad to claim you as a mem- lier of our class. Al, and wish you all the luck wot is. Page tiuenty MARY ELLEN COOK 18 Ayr Street This girl witli the curly red hair is Mary. She also is one of the quieter members of our class and has followed the commercial course. When you see Mary, you are quite sure to see Ethelyn, too. She is good-natured and we are certain that she will succeed in the business world. MARY EVELYN CROCKER 16 Greene Street Las Tres Musketeerias . This is Evelyn, the shortest one of that trio. You ' ll meet Helen and Eleanor later. Evelyn has been present at most of our school affairs. When she left in February she showed her ability by forming a kindergarten class. Her desire, however, is to be an artist. We ' re with you, Evelyn. EDITH ETHEL DAWSON .30 Sweetbriar Avenue Edith is a quiet and unobtrusive girl with pretty light hair and blue eyes. She studies hard and learns her lessons. When you be- come acquainted with her, you will appreciate her pleasing personality and find her a very good pal. She is never seen without her friend, Ruth. Best wishes, Edith. ARCHIE GAINER DUNCAN Old Harrington Road This handsome young man with the twin- kling eyes is Archie, one of the two members of the firm Boyce and Duncan — hilarity guar- anteed. Darn nice fellow, Archie is, even when he ' s serious. He played on our famous J. V. team last fall, and has been playing hockey on the team for the past three years. Paqe twenty-one 5 ir:!::1 « GEORGE DURANDE 11 Burgess Avenue The sound of a trumpet bursts fort]i from Room 20 where a few members of the Band are serenading Mr. Wiggni. It must come from the trumpet of our clever musician, George Durande. However, in class George is quiet, bashful, and good-natured. Well, here ' s to your success, George! CATHARIXE DYE 5G9 Waterman A venue Here we liave Catharine, an industrious worker, a serious minded student, and a sin- cere friend. We wonder sometimes what Troop Three Girl Scouts would have done wilhout Catharine ' s able assistance for the last two years. Catharine is one of the honor students of our class, and we all admire her for this. MAUDE SUMNER EDDY 11 Windhurst Avenue Who is that smiling miss rushing through the corridor ' ? Why, that ' s Maude, of course. She always livens things up, and is she fond of teasing others! Even when hurrying about, she is bubbling with laughter, a continuous mirth wholly her own, Maude has many friends, and we all say, Here ' s luck to you. GEORGE WILLIAM ERWIN 36 Orlo Avenue (ieorge is a boy who, early in life, decided to lie a farmer. When he grew up and went to high school, he remembered his ambition and studied agriculture. George has not been seen very much without his pal, Flodin. They have maintained a close friendship all through their high school years. Good luck. Page ticenty-Uco EDWARD FRANCIS FARRELL 63 Walnut Street Eddie is rather a quiet lad who came to E. P. from La Salle. He ' s not shy, though: in fact, he ' s very friendly, and those who have made his acquaintance have never had cause to regret it. We don ' t know just what you plan to do, Eddie, hut our best wishes for success go with you. DOROTHY SOPHIE FERNSTROM lOS County Street, Seekonk, Mass. Last September our class added another person to the already large group. This per- son was Dorothy, from Chicago. She is quiet, never causing the teachers any trouble. We have found her good-natured and willing to accommodate. Although we don ' t know what she wishes to do, we hope that she will suc- ceed in it. EILEEN LILLIAN FIFE 531 Warren Avenue If there were an annual prize for the cham- pion giggler, Eileen would be the undisputed winner. But don ' t let those outbursts deceive you, for Eileen is a dilligent student. She takes her work seriously and during her tlrree years in high school, few honor rolls have appeared without her name gracing them. RUTH LORETTA FISH 164 Taunton Avenue Introducing one of the smallest, yet most likeable members of our class. If you happen to hear the rattle of paper, or someone whis- pering, or a surpressed giggle, you ' ll know that Ruthie is trying to communicate with her chum, Doris. All fooling aside, we can truthfully say that Ruth is a good student and a good friend. Page twenty-three • ■I:- £-L]r «jiif HEXRY BAYLES FISK V Russell Avenue A sta! v;irt business man of the coming age stands before you — quiet and determined to succeed. Henry has been a constant plugger and the teachers have had little cause to call, Fisk . for discipline. His trombone has added to the harmony of both the orchestra and the liand. Keep up the good work, Henry! ANNA RYTA FLINN 103 Ivy Street If we were to give a title to the person who arrives just as the half past bell rings, this merry, blue-eyed girl would win it. Anna has certainly enjoyed herself in the commercial classes and she intends to continue her studies at Edgewood Secretarial School. Good Luck. GILBERT EVERETT FLODIX :;? Pavilion Avenue, Rumford Gil is a living example of what the well dressed num should wear. Beneath the calm and collected exterior which you see here, lies one of the reasons why the Flodin-Erwin Com- bination causes the teachers of the Commercial department so much anxiety. Ask him to smile for you — he can do it nicely. ROBERT McGregor eraser 1467 Pawtucket Avenue, Rumford Bob is an example of the strong, silent man: that is, he never has much to say, but let him climb behind his trombone and notice the dif- ference. Bob is studying agriculture among other things, and has, carefully tucked away in his mind, many facts about livestock, crops, and weather conditions. Paqe ticenty-four HARRY GARABEDIAN 108 First Street Girls, do you like a radio in an automobile? Just go out with Harry some evening, and you will never be sorry. Harry is quiet spoken and conscientious about his school work. He is ever ready to lend a helping hand and his cheerful smile is enough to erase the deepest scowl. ALICE MARIE GARDINER 114 Grove Avenue Alice is the friend of everyone in need. She is always ready to help with studies. If you want to know whether she ' s smart just look at the Honor Roll each quarter. She loves music and is seen at many Symphony Concerts. She also is a loyal supporter of the Glee Club. ROBERT LINCOLN Gft RT, JR, 15 Seventh S eet Witty Bob! His clfevj[ ' ; flinarks have been a source of amua e ' Jy ' ro all. He has been a very popflar peer of the class and has give,n ' ardJMf yl ort to all activities. Bob has als Swfbifl(dtime for study and is always among ouilnm honor students. We like Bob and wish him luck at Brown. OLIVE FRANCES GLADDING 956 Broadway The majority of our class know very little about Olive. She has done her work faithfully and has been no worry to her teachers. During her three years in high school she has studied hard and could often be seen carrying home an armful of books. Best wishes, Olive. Page twenty-Rve HELEN FRANCES GLYNN r 9 Ivy Street Have you ever wondered what life would l)e without a few humorous people scattered here and there? It would be pretty boring, I think. Yes, all this leads up to an intro- duction to Helen. Perhaps you are already fortunate enough to know her. She is a bless- ing to an overtaxed mind, for her ready wit supplies a delightful interim. FRANK GOEPFERT 442 North Broadway Here rises the baron of the class, indeed! — a good student in all his classes and a good tooter on his baritone in the band and orchestra. Frank ' s English themes, which he has so often refused to read to the class, have always revealed something amusing. In the future, with little surprise, shall we read your novels? FRANCIS CHARLES GOFTON 252 Brow Street More for the phonetic value than for any other reason, Francis has been changed to Goofey . Goof ' s sense of humor is the most delightful in the class, and his cheering grin and bubbling laughter are always in evidence. He and Buster managed the football team last fall. Here ' s luck, Goof — you won ' t need it, but take it anyway! BERNARD WARREN GOODWIN ISO Miller Street, Rumford Although Bern is, as a rule, rather quiet and undemonstrative in class, when he is on the football field, he is certainly far from quiet in his way of doing things. He will answer to the name Cyclops as well as to Bernard. It he did not. he and Temple would seldom talk to each other. Page twenty -six WILLIAM THOMAS GORMAN 48 Washington Avenue. Riverside This serious looking fellow is none other than Bill. Bill says very little, hut what he says is worth while. Too often we give not enough thought to quiet people. Let us not forget that such people can develop many sterling characteristics which our gigglers and chatterers can not. HELEN RUTH GRANT 144 Second Street If introductions are necessary I now take great pleasure in presenting to you. Helen. She is the scholar of that trio you ' ve already heard of. Helen left us for part of her senior year, but she came back. We certainly were glad, for what would the algebra class have done without her? Plenty of luck. Helen. NORMAN ALLEN GREENE 45 Ide Avenue Meet the favorite (?) of all the teachers. This chap ' s principal pastime is trying to make the teacher nervous by staring at her. There are many other things for which Greene is also noted but they are too numerous to mention. Norm has been a valuable member of the hockey team. RUTH GRINNELL 11 Wheldon Avenue Ruth, the girl with those dark Spanish eyes, has made herself well known especially in the commercial group. Although she appears to be quiet, we have not found her so. By the way, wouldn ' t it be unusual to see her without her friend, Etta. Page twenty-seven 5 ■ LOUIS JOSEPH GUEKTHER 144 Ferris Avenue, Rumford Louis commutes daily from Rumford. One of the most outstanding things about him is his fondness for cake and ice-cream as a dessert. His second dessert consists of a pocketful of ginger to be devoured in class. This spring Louis suddenly blossomed forth as an actor, appearing as Captain MacGregor in the contest play. ELLIOT DONALD HALPIN 112 Grosvenor Avenue Elliot seems always to be in a hurry. We doubt, however, if it is to get to classes. Elliot has been one of our star athletes and has never failed to attend our socials. When the question arises as to what the well dressed young man will wear. Elliot, with his large wardrobe, keeps us up to date. WALTER JOSEPH HANLEY 232 Roger Williams Avenue, Phillipsdale This young man with the — shall we say red? — hair is Walter, one of our few class- mates who come from Phillipsdale. Walter is quiet when he should be, but there are times when he breaks forth with remarks which tend to convulse the hearer. LILLIAN NORMA HASCALL 4S Lincoln Avenue, Riverside Lillian spends a great deal of her time play- ing basketball, bringing in ads for the Crimson, and, last but not least, whispering to Olive and Barbara. Her royal good humor has made many friends tor her among both sexes. We know that she will succee l- t Bouve-Boston Physical Education School. Page tiventy-eight RICHMOND GARDINER HASLAM 193 Summit Street Richmond is one of our tennis stars. He sped over the courts on many warm spring days for the honor of E. P. He is quiet and not well known by many of his classmates. However, there is a genuine friendliness about him that has endeared him to his more in- timate friends. LUCILLE HAUCK 110 Grosvenor Avenue During her high school days, Lucille has proved herself to be a capable assistant in the office. Since she left us in February, we have missed seeing her distributing notices. Lucille is a member of the Whitman— Vial— Hauck trio which, as a whole, has been greatly missed since February. PHYLLIS TALBOT HAYMAN 2548 Pawtucket Avenue If you should by any chance hear a burst of laughter from the back of the classroom, you ' d know that Phyllis is there. All the class is wondering how so much wit and fun could be packed into one person. She is never still or quiet, and by her pep has cheered our teams on to victory. DORIS ELIZABETH MEALY 61 Freeborn Avenue Everyone knows and admires our tall and stately Doris. Her friends all envy Dot her bright tresses and lovely blue eyes. Wasn ' t she a charming young mother in the school play? Didn ' t she have poise? We ' ll say so! Here ' s luck to yon, Doris, in whatever you attempt. Page ticenty-mne OLIVE WINIFRED HEALY OS Carpenter Street We Introduce Olive to you as a real student who never wastes time fooling when she should be studying. Although she seems quiet, slie likes to have fun and thoroughly enjoys a good time. ' e think you would like to know Olive and would like to join with us in wish- ins lier good hick. GEORGE CARPENTER HENDERSON 14 Linden Avenue, Rumford Enthusiastic — that ' s George, no matter whether studying, dancing, or arguing with Hub Speakman. George has a great deal of niiLsical talent; he plays the sax in the orches- tra and the piano for the benefit of the Hi-Y lub. and furnishes his share of the vocal tertainment on the Rumford school car. CECELIA PEREIRA HENRIQl ' ES 229 Juniper Street Here is one of the many quiet members of our lar.ge class. Cecelia seems to find more pleasure in watching the enjoyment of others than in participating in it herself. She has been a most helpful friend to everyone. The best wishes for success in whatever field of work she may enter are extended to her by her class. FRA.XCIS LEONARD HIBBITS 50 Kingsford Avenue, Riverside They can ' t faze you, can they. Hibbits? Truer words were never spoken — whether he ' s demonstrating a geometry proposition, high jumping, or playing football, he can ' t be fazed. Lenuie ' s humorous ways have won him friends from far and near. His business ability is as great as his athletic and social genius — Len ' s triplets when it comes to ability. Page thirty MILDRED IRENE HIBBITS 50 Kingsford Avenue. Riverside Let me Introduce vivacious, pleasure loving Millie. She is also a hard working student, and always fares well when reports are given out. Millie has taken a very active part in the Girl Reserves and we sometimes wonder what the organization would do without her. She is fond of dancing, and no social could b e a success without her. STANLEY ALFRED HOLT 61 Burnside Avenue, Riverside Stanley is the owner of a charming English accent which delights us all. He is a great lover of fun, and his mischievous expression combined with his witty remarks has been the cause of upsetting more than one classroom. Stanley has studied hard, and has also been a credit to our track team. HENRY CHASE JAMES 54 Alice Street This thoroughly delightful young man is Henry, Hi-Y president and baseball manager. Humorous, cleancut, and maulM he is one of the best liked and most r( ec eL fellows in our class. His attracjt«ai rin, ri« pleasant voice, and his delightfil manner make one like him instantly, and his ability when serious makes one respect him. MAE EVELYN JOHNSON 24 Carrie Avenue. Riverside Do you like surprises? Then you should know Mae, for she is constantly entertaining her friends with odd phrases and such. It is also pleasant to know the serious Mae. who holds great aspirations for the future and who is a comfort in time of need. Another of Mae ' s good points is her blond hair. Page thirty-one • PRISCILLA WEBSTER JOHNSON 65 Ferris Avenue, Rumford This tall, slim girl is of great assistance to the office clerk in the Junior High. She is a great participant in basketball and swimming, in which she excells. Possibly our children will talk about Miss Johnson, the dietitian of our school. Who knows? HERBERT IGNATIUS KENNEY 162 Fort Street This, my good friends, is Herbert — Herbert the Happy — known during the football season as Slugger Kenney. The merry twinkle in Herlj ' s eyes makes one guess instantly that behind those eyes lies a keen sense of humor. He has his serious moments , too — you ' d know what I mean if you saw him writing in History. ETHEL ELLA KENT fl Cushman Avenue Bunty is a blessing to her teachers, for her lessons are nearly always well prepared. Did you evei- hear one of her themes? We expect to read some of her books soon. Bunty ' s charming disposition has won her many friends and her clever dancing has been partly responsible for her social success. MARY DEd NEIGES LAFRENIERE Let us describe this petite, demure miss to you. She is very quiet and never bothers the teachers either in study rooms or in classes. However, she is good-natured and likes a good time. She intends to become a nurse, and we know that her patients will like her as well as we do. Page thirty-tico WILLIAM LALLY 71 John Street Bill is a quiet, unassuming lad (but let him tell it!) How many times has Bill been told to go to class when he has been chatting with a blonde or brunette? He has delighted us with his sense of humor, and we are happy to have been his companions. JOHN ALFRED LAWSON 410 North Broadway Al, our class giant, is a fellow of great capability. Athletic— (football and track), social — (try and keep him away from a party), scholastic — (remember how many times Al saved the geometry class from the wrath of the teacher?) He is a genial, good natured pal — listen to his laugh! HILDA CATHERINE LEMOS 30 Harris Street Here is Hilda, one of the tiniest of seniors. Hilda is very quiet while in school, but have you ever seen her outside of school? Hilda is almost always seen with her pal Rena. We do not know what your plans are for the future, Hilda — but we wish you much success. CAROLINE SARA LEWIS 14 Walnut Street Beautiful brown eyes and an ever sunny dis- position spell Caroliue, our official gloom chaser. Not to be forgotten also is her curly brown hair, which is a source of envy to us less fortunates. Caroline is fond of walking and she is often seen with her friends on Taunton Avenue. Page thirty-three 5 iivi • DOROTHY HELEN LIXDOPP 151 Second Street Here we have a typical American girl. If I ' very young girl possessed the natural beauty that is Dottie ' s, the manufacturers of cosmetics would have to turn to another vocation or starve. In Dorothy, the skating arena has lost a good customer, tor Dot ' s latest hobby Is dancing. Good luck to you. Dorothy, in all you undertake. VINCENT LUNGHI 46 Hull Street Yowsah! That extremely cheerful looking young man is none other than Lunghl — and probably that one with him is Santillo. This combination has furnished the school with many a gay laugh. Well, au reservior Lunghi, as the Swedish say — and keep smiling! GARDNER MILLES MacCONNELL 129 Centre Street May we present Gardner, that very pretty young lady with the locks of lustrous auburn hair? Gardner has never been known to cause a disturbance; we have found her a most pleasant person to have around. We have no knowledge covering Gardner ' s plane; but we wish her luck. MYRTLE MAY MACHON 162 Tangent Street Did you ever see Myrtle without that twinkle in her eyes? Although she appears quiet, her looks are deceiving, as she is .iust as full of fun as she can be. In her junior year she was elected a member of the Honor Society. With such a record, the futtire should hold no fear for Myrtle. Page thirty-four DOROTHY FRANCES MACOMBER 41 Walnut Street One of the quieter girls of our class is Dorothy, with lier lovely blue eyes and pretty hair. Her name seems to be a part of the honor roll, and her conscientiousness during study periods is a splendid example of the old adage Perseverance Wins Success. She has many friends who all wish her success. DANIEL JOSEPH MAHLER 3124 Pawtucket Avenue When he entered the school, Danny or Junior was a quiet little fellow; but lately there has been a change, possibly for the better. Junior is an effective clarinet player in the band. We have never seen Danny when he was seriously worried about his studies. He runs a taxi from Riverside each morning. PHYLLIS MAYBELLE MAHLER 3124 Pawtucket Avenue In a certain corner of the cafeteria there may be seen a group of merry girls. Their constant outbursts of laughter are caused by Phyllis ' s imitation of a famous movie star or perhaps an auctioneer. One never knows what sort of fun to expect when Phyllis is around, for her characterizations always come as a surprise. BERTHA LOUISE MANSFIELD 49 Park Drive, Riverside Bertha is one of our merriest pupils. No matter what goes wrong, she can laugh with the world. She can also make others forget their troubles by her ever ready wit, delight- ful smile, and those dimples! East Providence High will not forget Bertha. Page thirty-five MAE LOUISE MANSFIELD 36 Jackson Avenue, Riverside Mae is the left hand helper of one ot our most popular teachers. But despite her seem- ing quietness, she can keep up her end of a conversation with great ease, especially in a class room. Mae is a wizard at shorthand and could record one of Floyd Gibbon ' s whirlwind conversations with ease and efficiency. CARLTON EDGAR MARYOTT 495 Brook Street, Pawtucket Long, long ago, when we were all Sopho- mores, Carl was known as a woman-hater. Since then, however, he has reformed — de- cidedly. The frequency with which his name has appeared on the honor roll shows that he takes his school work seriously. If you want to hear him talk, say automobile to him. ELVIRA McCALLUM 295 Pleasant St., Rumford Tech ' s loss was E. P. ' s gain when Elvira came to us in her Junior year. It takes a long time really to know Vi, but those who do know her realize what a pleasing personality she has. Vi has been very successful here and we hope she always will be. Be st of luck, Vi. ELEANOR CLAIkE MCCARTHY 468 Bullocks Pt. Avenue, Riverside Smiling, good-natured, fun-loving. Whom do you suppose these adjectives describe? Well, if you don ' t know, you ' ve been missing a big treat. Although Eleanor is quite industrious, she never likes to be left out of any fun- making. She is a friend to everyone and a friend everyone enjoys having. Page thirty -six MARTHA CAROLYN McCORMICK 324 Taunton Avenue Hello-o-ol Does one need to ask from whom that happy, cheerful voice comes? Of course not! For who could it be but Martha with her winning smile — an attraction that her many friends appreciate. Martha has shown marked ability in debating,— and leave it to her to get her Latin done! CHARLES JAMES McLAUGHLIN 50 North Street, Riverside Although Charlie isn ' t very tall, he is cer- tainly full of fun. He doesn ' t fool all the time, though, because he is studious, too. He has plenty of school spirit because he is interested in athletics and attends all the games, besides being manager of the baseball team. Best wishes, Charlie. ELEANOR FRANCES McLAUGHLIN 50 North Street, Riverside We all admire Eleanor for her charming personality, her poise, her lovely black hair, and her pretty clothes. If you ' ve noticed the honor rolls, you don ' t need me to tell you that she is a good student. She also is a lover of fun, and manages to have her full share of it. FRANCES MILDRED McLAUGHLIN 47 Horsford Avenue, Rumford Frances left us in February after making a good scholastic record. She was elected to the Honor Society in her Junior year. She was also elected to the difficult and thankless job of class treasurer and performed her duties most satisfactorily. We might add that if you see Frances. Dolly is not far away. Page thirty-seven LUCILLE IRENE McLAUGHLIN 16S Walnut Street Lucille is very fond of sports and is one ot the reasons why the senior basketball team has been continually successful. She can al- ways be found at our school games and is a ready and active cheerer. Her flashing smile and sunny disposition are known to all. MELVIN EARL MESSENGER 59 Walnut Street Who is this slight blond gentleman coming toward us? It is the one and only Melvin. He has served his school faithfully by playing in the orchestra and by taking active part in the stamp club. He has a great desire to travel, so perhaps we shall meet him some day in the .iungles of Africa. DOROTHY LUCILLE MITCHELL 3G28 Pawtucket Avenue, Riverside Dorothy is an energetic little person. She rushes from class to class with a smile and a pleasant word for everyone. Dottle was one of our class officers and worked hard to make more than one of our class socials a success. She also has spent much of her time working in the library. PAUL EDWARD MONAHAN .59 Brown Avenue, Rumford Paul always has a good supply of witty re- marks to make. He takes part in athletics, and his ability to lift the puck the length of the rink has helped our hockey team out of many difficult situations. He is a regular Bobby Jones when it conies to golf. We hope to hear of him again. Page thirty-eight CATHERINE MARY MORTON 49 Horst ' ord Avenue, Rumford Catherine is, indeed, a gay and interesting companion. Slie also lias the ability to fit herself into other people ' s moods; she is gay, sympathetic, serious— all according to the needs of the hour. She has always been a good student and requires no prodding from her teachers. ANGELINA CATHERINE MOURA 146 Smith Street, Riverside A girl with a smile is a girl worthwhile. This describes Angle exactly, for she always has a smile for everyone, and she certainly is worth-while. Angle has always done her work satisfactorily. She has studied the commer- cial course and we know that she will make a success in her business life. LOUISE MARY MULLERVY Louise is gifted with a sense of humor which enables her to see the funny side of every situation. Often at the most unexpected times her giggle is heard in the stillness of a study class. She has been everyone ' s pal and we all join in wishing her success. MARY ELIZABETH MULVEY 29 Anthony Street How can we tell all about Mary in such a short space? One of the best all-round girls in our class, she is clever, good-looking, an excellent dancer, an attractive dresser, charm- to all — and is she popular? We ' ll say! No need to tell you that Mary will be successful in any work. Page thirty -nine •VJIIP MARCARET ELVERA MYRBERG G2 Woodward Avenue Work must surely be play for Peggy because she seems always to be so engrossed in either books or papers. The library silently breathes its thanks for her presence. If Peggy becomes a nurse with her friend, Virginia, whatever will the hospital do for enough beds to ac- commodate uie patients? ALLAN WINSLOW NICKERSON Seekonk, Mass. Allan is one of the few in our class who come from Seekonk. He is extremely popular among the members of the fairer sex and al- ways attends the social affairs. Allan can be seen during the lunch periods tossing milk bottles about and pushing wagons piled high with ti-ays. LENARD NILSON, JR. 1S2 Center Street, Rumford One of the most noticeable things about Xilson is his grin — another is his laugh — still another of our most vivid recollections is of the horn that he toots with such ability in the band. His favorite pastimes are playing foot- ball and exchanging repartee with Miss Wadd- ington. ROLAND LEONARD OHSBERG 49 Magnolia Street, Rumford Lennie is that attractive viking whose blond Iiead can usually be seen from quite a dis- tance. Lennie has been one of our outstanding football players and is always present at our basketball games. He is fond of dancing and has always been present at class parties. Page forty ALBERT EDWARD ORMISTON 116 Waterman Avenue To appreciate Buster fully, one must be acquainted with him, for words seem to fail when it comes to describing him. He is sel- dom seen when not conversing with a girl of the class. He made a capable manager of the football team and worked hard to make a suc- cess of our Athletic dance. We shall miss Buster. EVERETT ALEXANDER ORR 19V Fifth Street Everett demonstrated to us in February just how much he liked school. He planned to leave and get a job; he stayed out exactly two days. Everett was one of the. managers of the basketball team, and held an important position on the Athletic dance committee. We ap- preciate his work. JULIEN PATENAUDE 19 North Street, Riverside Fellow classmates, that was not an earth- quake you just heard; it was only the arrival of Pat in his yellow two-seated roadster. He has attended all our socials and has delighted all his partners by his dancing and good humor. Who knows? — perhaps sometime in the future we shall hear of Julien as a famous aviator. MARGARET ELLEN PAULSON 50 Arnold Street Riverside Aren ' t you going to bank this morning? Thus speaks Peggy, who has been our efficient banking officer since we were sophomores in Room 17. Peggy has been a good student and no worry to the teachers. She can usually be found with her pal Edna, but she has many other friends as well. Page forty-one OLOA EDITH PAVORE 524 Warren Avenue Gaze at Iier! She has a smile on her face when she enters the class-room and she still has it when she leaves. Olga has such a pleasing personality that she is always sur- rounded by a host of friends. We may see Olga gracing some dignified business office, emitting an unexpected scream now and then. HARRIET ESTELLE PEARSON 103 Barney Street, Rumford No matter where Harriet may be, she is always full of vivacity. She has made an art of dancing and never lacks a partner. Once you have heard her unusual giggle you will remember it forever, and once you have dis- covered her delightful disposition you will want to know her forever. SADIE IRENE PECK 87 Sutton Avenue Quiet seems to be the best adjective that we can apply to this maiden who has certainly caused no teachers to be annoyed. Since she has followed the commercial course, we ex- pect to hear from her in the world of business, but do we envy the one who gains her ser- vices! BERNARD ELMER PEPPER 75 Highland Avenue Pepper ' s dry humor is a never ceasing de- light to those who know him. If ever you feel blue, talk to Pepper, but let him do most of the talking. Before long you ' ll find you can still laugh. Bernie can be serious, too — just listen to him recite in English if you don ' t believe me! Page torly-tivo W FLORENCE DELORBS PETROSINO 11 Gurney Street If you like dancing brown eyes and a sweet smile, step up and meet Florence, one of our excellent stenographers whose numerous A ' s and B ' s are the envy of many. Quiet and un- assuming, she is loved by all, and we are sure that she will be a success in the business world. JAMES LESLIE PICKERING, JR. 35 Mary Avenue Jimmie is well known for his quiet nature and for his thoughtful drawl. He has seldom been known to shout outside of Room 1 and is exempt from all remarks concerning the lung- power of Senior A ' s. Well, we wish you the best of luck, Jim, and lots of success. BARBARA COPELAND PICKERSGILL 33 James Street That sophisticated and ambitious young lady is Barbara, one of our artists. We admire her for her talent which has been displayed in her colorful posters and scenery. Barbara makes a splendid actress, an excellent dancing partner, and an enthusiastic sport fan. May you be as successful in the future as you have been as our classmate. DOROTHY HELEN PICKETT 6 Allerton Avenue Dot is always good-natured and has a ready smile. Possibly this smile was instrumental In getting the many ads for the Crimson which Dot secured. Her favorite subjects seem to have been Latin and French. She has won many true friends among us who wish her success as a teacher. Page forty-three - Upr- f = ' •= lB I MARY LOUISE PILKINGTON 1 Whipple Avenue, Riverside As we enumerate our friends, those of us who are privileged to know Mary, name her as heing one of the choicest. We know she appears dignified, but what fun lies behind that dignity! One with Mary ' s abilities is certain to achieve success. RENA MAY PILKINGTON 1 Whipple Avenue, Riverside Rena is a winsome little girl, always ready to share in any fun there is. Her speedy typing has been a great help to the publishing of this Crimson. Just what Rena plans to do is unknown but we presume that she will work in some Inisiness firm. MARY MARGARET POWER 229 Martin Street When Irish Eyes are Smiling. There is no l)etter example of this song than Mary, who came to us from Ireland, and has proved herself a sincere friend to all. She is system- atic and businesslike in all her undertakings, as illustrated by her little red assignment book, without which she is never seen. ALBERT EDWARD PRISCO 301 Warren Avenue Due to an unavoidable mistake. Albert, who graduated last year, did not appear in the 1932 Crimson. We, the class of 1933, welcome liim to our class list. We all knew him well, ami appreciated his ready wit, his gentlemanly manner, and his steadfastness in his work. Good luck. A . Page forty-four MALCOLM RAY Wampauoag Trail Look over this record. Football and hockey player, basketball manager, Hi-Y member, and last, but most certainly not least, class presi- dent for two years. He is often called Sunny Ray— can you guess why? Mai is being urged to write a pamphlet entitled One Hundred Reasons Why I Didn ' t Do My Latin Lesson. EMILY JOSEPHINE REEVES 60 Merrill Street Emily is the girl who has a smile and a cherry word for everyone. Her interesting conversation has helped many people to pass a very enjoyable study hour. By being a firm believer in the golden rule, Emily has won a very large circle of friends. ELEANOR FRANCES RENEY 26 Kent Avenue Here ' s the third member of that adventurous trio of girls. Eleanor has done a great deal for her Alma Mater by taking great interest in the orchestra and in other musical organ- izations. If you wish any help in music, see Eleanor, as she certainly is talented. She plans to continue her work in music. Buena fortuna. Eleanor. DOROTHY ANN RENICK 1.5 Oak Avenue, Riverside Dorothy came from West Virginia in her senior year. If every southern girl is like Dot. let ' s have more southern girls. In class, Dorothy is quiet and attentive, but between classes, she constantly surprises us with her witty remarks. When you return home, Dot, we shall regret that 1933 has been so short. Page forty -five (lEirrRUDE CATHERINE REUTER 224 Freeborn Avenue A ripple of laughter and a succession of gigs;les. Who ' s that? Why, giggling Gertie, of course. Her chuckles have brightened many a dark moment — especially during study periods. Gert is also a Room 10 Terror, and how she can translate Virgil! Here ' s to every success. Gert, and don ' t ever lose your merry ilispnsition. FLORENCE HOWE ROBERTSON 92 Grove Avenue Florence is an illustration of the typical American girl of high school age. She has a charm all her own, and her blond head always appears among the popular dancers at our socials and those outside. Her mania for tryina to use l)ig words is a source of mer- riment to all. Florence is all anyone could hope for, and we know she will find success await- ing her. GEORGIANNA MARGARET ROCHA 65 Martello Street May we present Georgianna, another of our promising young stenographers who work so industriously in school and receive tine marks as a reward. Her happy smile cheers us when our lessons seem difficult. She is one of our most charming students as well. Good luck, Georgianna. GERTRUDE ELIZABETH ROE (!70 Willett Avenue, Riverside Gert is always full of pep. She Is one of our best dancers and one of our greatest dis- turbers of the peace (in classrooms). Gert does not come to school regularly, but when she does come, we all watch to see what new outfit she is wearing. Page forty-six J.J[:::: ' -« teiJJj MARCELLA MARY ROE 201 Pawtucket Avenue, Rumford Under a seemingly serious manner lies a wealth of humor and good nature. A good companion, a loyal daughter of E. P., a faith- ful student, a person slow to take offence and quick to appreciate the humor of any situation — there you have Marcella. Best wishes, Marcella. MARY FRANCIS ROURKE 172 Walnut Street Mary can usually be seen carrying her cello (which is much too large for her) to and from school every Thursday; that is, when she doesn ' t forget it. She likes to talk and is liy no means a quiet young lady. A suppressed giggle at an unexpected time can generally be attributed to her. CATHARINE FLORENCE SALISBURY 112 Centre Street, Rumford Catharine has not entered into our social life, but she has been a staunch supporter of our athletics — especially football. She has plugged along in her studies with a deter- mination to master them and we honestly say she has been successful. JOHN MYLES SANDERS 26 Ash Street, Riverside Believe it or not, John is both studious and full of fun — studious in the class-room and full of fun between periods. When one be- comes well acquainted with Johnnie, one finds that he is always ready with a wise-crack of some kind. Johnnie is also quite an artist. We expect great work, Johnnie. Page forty-seven 5 ALFRED SANTILLO 391 Waterman Avenue Together, Santillo and Lunghi have fur- nished the school with no end of amusement. Alfred can be serious, too — and there is a sort of quiet friendliness about him which breaks down all walls of reserve and puts him on a friendly basis with everyone with whom he conies in contact. CARL EDGAR SAVARD 304 Taunton Avenue Carl declares himself to be a born woman hater, but we have noticed that he has been one of the dancers at almost all our socials. He and his friends Pat and Charlie are always together. Perhaps some day Carl will over- come his bashtiilness (?) WALTER RUSSELL SCHOFIELD 4 Whitcomb Road. Riverside Now we come to Sco — one of the many mem- bers of the Riverside gang. Walter ' s quiet manner and keen sense of humor have made all of us like him. Sco has never yet been able to live down his statement of the ad- vantages of Open Shop. ELIZABETH WEBSTER SHAW 7 Judkins Street, Rumford Let us introduce you to Betty, She is the tall girl with fair hair, and a smile that wins her many friends. Betty is another one of the Virgil sharks, and a member of the Room 10 celebrities. All in all, Betty is an asset to the class of ' 33, and we wish her the best of success. Page forty-eight ' § ' JOHN FRANCIS SHAW, JR. 130 Orchard Street A twinkle of mischief is always lingering in Jack ' s eyes. The disturbance that Jack causes in study periods lends proof to this statement. He has been an ardent supporter of athletics, but basketball seems to be his favorite sport. Best of luck. Jack. CHARLES AUGUSTUS SHERMAN 1G7 Central Avenue Charlie (vas you dere?) appears to divide his time between assaulting the members of other fencing teams with his doughty foil and producing strange odors in Room 21 for the benefit of the Chemistry class (and for the discomfort of the rest of the school). Good fellow. Charlie is. HERBERT MUNROE SKIPP 109 Summit Street Yoo — Hoo — it ' s Skippy! Here he is — the boy himself. Popular? Well, look at him! If there isn ' t a cluster of fellows around him there ' s a crowd of girls, so draw your own conclusions. If it will help you any, we might add that he ' s kind, humorous, and intelligent. GRACE WOODS 9 Clifton Drive, Did you hear someone away corner? Need you No. Everyone knows it ' s smallest girls in our class, also, and we admire the the surface. Grace plans ucation, and we wish her Page forty-nine SLOCUM Riverside giggling in the far wonder who it is? Gracie, one of the She can be serious, seriousness beneath to continue her ed- the best of luck. ■ HOWARD ALDEN SMITH 34 Horsfoi-d Avenue. Rumford Howard is a happy-go-lucky fellow, and he is never happier than when he is behind a drum with a pair of sticks in his hands. Howard has another claim to tame: he is a better-than-average dancer, and we enjoyed watching him on the floor at our parties and proms. LILLIAN AGNES SMITH Lillian is another of the quiet, reserved members of our class. At the close of school, she is usually seen with quite an armful of books. She has faithfully done her commer- cial work, and we feel sure that she will suc- ceed. Her courtesy, charm, and sincerity have made her liked by all of us. MARTHA ELIZABETH SMITH 69 Rogers Avenue, Riverside Martha is pretty, clever, and has excellent taste in clothes. Many more adjectives could l)e used to describe Martha, but space will not permit. A glance at her picture, possibly, can tell how we feel about her. We must not neglect to mention Martha ' s dramatic ability which was revealed in our School and Senior plays. ROYCE RAYMOND SMITH 1(56 Arnold Street, Riverside One of Royce ' s favorite pastimes is listening to himself talk. Strangely enough, however, the others who may be listening enjoy what he has to say just as much as Royce himself. Smith was one of the mainstays of the foot- ball team last fall. He plans to become an undertaker after leaving here. Page fifty RUTH LOUISE SMITH 22 Hazelwoocl Avenue Ruth is a tall and quiet member of our class. By saying that she is quiet, we don ' t mean that she doesn ' t enjoy herself. She uses her study periods tor doing her lessons, and, as a result, her name is seen on the honor roll. We seldom see her without her pal, Edith. Best wishes. GERTRUDE BOYCE SPEAKMAN 56 Knowlton Street, Riverside Gertrude has found her studies hard, but she has worked diligently during her three years here, and the results have been very satis- factory. Gert has also found time for fun. She and her pal Dot have supplied us with many moments of laughter. ROBERT ERNEST STANDISH 26 Mayflower Street, Riverside Ah! Here comes the boy with the dark curly hair and the rosy complexion. Why, it ' s none other than our bashful classmate. Bob Standish. Bob is Captain of the Hockey Team and when he sallies forth in the direction of the opponent ' s goal, beware! Bob ' s a good fellow and we wish him much luck. MYRTLE LESLIE STEVENS 115 Roger Williams Avenue If you haven ' t met Dolly, here ' s your chance. She is one who can strike a happy medium and be both studious and fun-loving. Her pleasant disposition and her good sportsman- ship have made her a friend to her classmates. If she dons that white uniform and cap she certainly will be a friend to all. Page fifty-one DOROTHY MARIE STONE 25 Ivan Avenue AlthouEch Dorothy appears to be rather quiet, please don ' t misjudge her. for her appearance is deceiving. Dorothy is one ot our few class- luates vFho can easily say that they have pre- pared their lessons. Dot is taking the Com- mercial Course, and we hope that in a few years she will be classed among the greatest of private secretaries. ELEANOR FRANCES STONE 2.5 Ivan Street Here is Eleanor, a very conscientiotis miss, who works hard with her studies but is re- warded at the end of the month when her name appears on the honor roll. Eleanor is rarely ever seen without her pal, Mary. Best wishes always. El. JAMES HENRY SULLIVAN 935 Broadway •Jim came to us from Tech at the beginning of this year. Before long he had established his place in our hearts. He does well in his studies — even in geometry, despite his dif- ficulty in speaking the language of his sub- .iect. His voice is remarkably easy to hear. CHARLES RUSSELL TEEDEN 21 Eleanord btreet. Riverside Here is a boy wjth curly black hair and snapping black eyes. Because he is usually very quiet, he rather surprises everyone by excessive whispering and laughing the minute he enters a particular class. We all wish him success in anything he undertakes after leaving school. Page fifty -two RALPH ARNOLD TEMPLE 71 Bluff Street, Riverside Bud came to us from Classical early last year and lias made himself an indispensible part of the baseball team, the Riverside gang, and the Latin class. His pleasant and humor- ous words and ways have won him a host of friends. P. S. — He has red hair. BARBARA THAYER IS Fourth Street Here ' s Barbara, one of the best liked mem- bers of the class. Her three years have been passed in benefiting the entire student body and as a result she has made herself liked by everyone. Barbara has been a much-sought- after partner at class socials. The Girl Re- serves will certainly miss Bobbie. RITA CATHERINE THOMPSON 73 Ivy Street During her first two years in high school Rita tended strictly to her studies and was known only among her intimate friends. This year, however, she has successfully combined social pleasures with her school work. Al- though she does not attend many school affairs, she has much to tell of good times else- where. RUSSELL SAMUEL THORBURN 30 Oak Avenue, Riverside Babe is the best example of perpetual motion in our class. He ' s a comical cave-man with the girls — and is he popular with them! For three years he has been one of the stars of the baseball team. We don ' t know just what he plans to do, but we ' re sure he ' ll do it well. Page fifty-three •tl MILDRED ELLA THl. BER 14 Calendar Avenue Mildred always looks happy and good- natured and always has her pal Gertrude with her. Have you heard her merry giggle in study rooms? But she is studious, too. and often has her name on the honor roll. We do not know what she wishes to do. hut we hope she succeeds. OTTO FREl! MAX TINGLEY 180 Freeborn Avenue Although Otto has a rather quiet and very pleasant voice when in school, as soon as he gets in the catcher ' s box. his voice booms out like a fog horn — his playing isn ' t all talk though, not by a long shot. He has the knack of making friends with everyone. Adios, Ting — and good luck. MARIE SYLVIA TRACY 39 School Street Here comes the songster of the Senior class. All the feminine members of E. P. certainly envy her curly hair, and the boys are victims of her ready wit. She is an excellent typist and certainly ought to be the answer to an exacting employer ' s prayer. ETTA LOUISE VIALL 912 Broadway Did you ever hear of Personality Plus. Plus what ' ? you ask. Why, personality plus two sparkling, blue eyes and a very charming smile. That ' s Etta, one of the most popular girls in our class. She can dancs, give cheers, and whisper, all very successfully.

His vast knowledge of political happenings was clearly shown when he gave his long but interesting report on current events in history. He plans to become a pharmacist, so here ' s good luck to him. CHARLES SIMMOND WEAVER lOS Greenwood Avenue, Rumford This, my friends, is Charlie (not Scharlie, because Charlie was there). His ever ready wit has never yet failed to amuse us. He can usually be seen talking with one of the gang from his home town. East Providence Center. Keep going Charlie, your sense of humor will make you more friends as you go along. DORIS MAXWELL WHEATON 30 Fifth Street Introducing Doris, the girl who always could be seen with her friend Ruth, chattering gaily about the things she ' s most interested in. Her excellent soprano voice has been greatly ap- preciated by the Glee Club and other choral organizations. She left us in February and is now enrolled in one of the courses at Bryant and Stratton. GEORGE EDWIN WHITFIELD 25 Roger Williams Avenue, Phillipsdale George always seems to appear quite dig- nified and serious, but those who know him will find that he has a delightful sense of humor. Much of George ' s spare time is spent in puttering about the stage, for George is one of the reasons why our recent plays have been so well equipped with props and scenery. Page fifty -five AL DREY BARBARA WHITMAN SO Earle Avenue. Riverside Here is the girl with those beautiful big l ro vn eyes. Beautiful but dumb cannot be applied to Audrey, for she is beautiful and bright. Her name has been on many honor rolls and she is a member of the Rhode Island Honor Society. She is also an important mem- ber of our social life. TMAYHELLE DOROTHY WIBERG 10 Alice Street Belle has a cheery disposition and is always ready to smile and tell you of her good times. She is studious and her name is often on the honor roll. She left us in February and we wish her the very best of good fortune. DORIS MAY WILCOX 12 Winsor Street Doris is a quiet sort of girl, but she does have a tendency to talk during study periods. She isn ' t at all dull and is very fond of sports. She attended many of the basketball games. We don ' t know what she is going to do. but we wish her luck if she needs it. OLIVE GERTRUDE WILLIAMS 34 Shore Road. Riverside Sweetness is woman ' s greatest attraction. This is characteristic of Olive, who through her three years in high school has been known for her agreeable disposition. She and a cer- tain young man have faithfully attended all our basketball games and school socials. Olive enters wholeheartedly into her school work and her efforts are well rewarded.

He has never let his studies get the better of him, tor he approaches them with the smile of the conqueror. East Providence is to lose one of its greatest boosters, but his accom- plishments will remain. GEORGE MEYERS PETERS 10 Jackson Avenue At the time that this Crimson went to press. George was in the hospital and was, therefore, unable to have his picture taken. George came to us this year from the wicked city- Chicago. You should hear him tell it. He was chosen for the senior play, but illness pre- vented his taking part. RALPH EARL STEWART 86 Turner Avenue, Riverside Ralph is an unusual person. I think that he has thoroughly enjoyed getting his education- acquiring knowledge has been a keen pleasure He is a serious minded fellow, a very depend- able friend, a hard-working student, and, in all, a boy of whom East Providence is justly proud.

These same serious, well-behaved, studious people were known as Sophomores. The events of this first year are somewhat hazy in the mind of the historian, but after much intensive concentration he can recall a few facts concerning these serious, well- behaved, studious individuals. Most of the teachers agreed that we could make more noise than any class they ' d ever had. Stan Ballinger started his career of argumentation : he also started his habit of getting straight A ' s . Martha McCormick trotted from room to room covering the blackboards with notices of class meetings. With Miss Sundberg ' s help Mai Ray or Helen Grant presided over the class meetings. The difficult task of collecting dues was given to Frances McLaughlin. Whip Allen was beginning to make a name for himself in baseball and football. The thinkers in the algebra class were found to be few and far between. Bill Chappell furnished no end of enter- tainment in Room 15. Johnny Ayres ' tall form was to be seen flitting about the basketball floor. Olive Casartello and Lillian Hascall led the list of girl athletes. Among the class members in the orchestra were Eleanor Reney, Bob Gilbert. Lois Cole. George Henderson. Melvin Black well, and Daniel Mahler. Rit Brunell spent his leisure moments drawing pictures of strong men. The memory of the historian is dimming: it ' s time he went to bed. Someone else will relate the adventures of this group of studious, well-behaved, serious scholars in their Junior and Sen ior years. In September, 1931, those same ser- ious, well-behaved, studious young men ind women returned, bubbling over with health and energy, proudly displaying grand tans and new haircuts. Im- mediately we swung into the football season and found on the team many juniors. There were Mahlon Allen, Red Wyatt. Lennie Hibbits, Royce Smith. Elliott Halpin. John Ayres, Archer Duncan, and many others. Our season was an exciting one and the games were well-attended. How-jver. we did not win the pennant as we had hoped. We were proud of Mahlon Allen who was elected to the R. I. All-State second team. In November we were truly sorry to lose our principal. Mr. Alfred J. Maryott, whom we all admired and Page sixty-ta o loved: but duty called him to Pawtucket High School. However, Mr. James E. Bates then became our principal, and we found him to be as good a friend and as understanding a principal as Mr. Maryott had been, so things continued to run smoothly. Then came the basketball season with John Ayres, Frank Veader, Lennie Hib- bits and two or three others represent- ing us on the team. The season was fairly good, but we were not the champions. About this time we chose class off- icers, and again Malcolm Ray was chosen president, a positive sign of his popularity. The other officers were Barbara Thayer, Vice President; Dor- othy Mitchell, Secretary; and Frances McLaughlin, Treasurer. Immediately after election the Social committee arranged for a brilliant Junior Prom. The members of the committee were Betty Bourne, chair- man, Mildred Hibbits, Alfred Lawson. and Robert Gilbert. The Prom was a Christmasy affair, held on December 1 1, and the class turned out in style for it. The seniors were there, too, and we are sure everyone had a marvelous time. Winter came along then, and with winter came hockey. Bob Standish, Paul Monahan, Norman Greene, Elliott Halpin, and Russell Thorburn carried the class colors well and we were proud of the boys. Then occurred the event which brought glory to our school. At the track meet two E. P. boys broke records and one of the boys was none other than our Lennie Hibbits who broke the high jump record. Maybe we weren ' t proud! Other juniors who represented us in track were Eddie Caul- field, Al Lawson. and Stanley Holt. In the school play we had only two class members. Henry James and Melvin Blackwell, but we enjoyed the play as much as if there had been all juniors in it. Our debating team brought the cup back to East Providence for the first time in some years. The only junior on the team was Martha McCormick. Stanley Ballinger, another junior, rep- resented us in the chess tournament. Margaret I. Carter brought honor to the class by winning one of the prizes awarded by the F. I. D. A. C. for an essay, Why We Have a Fete on Arm- istice Day. We had several juniors in the orchestra, among them being Lois Cole, Mary Rourke, Eleanor McLaugh- lin, Eleanor Reney, David Brooke, AI Lawson, Melvin Blackwell, Robert Gil- bert, George Henderson, Royce Smith, Howard Smith, and Daniel Mahler. Among the ofiicers of the Hi-Y were Lennie Hibbits, Bill Lally, Malcolm Ray, and Henry James, while among the officers of the Girl Reserves were Barbara Thayer and Priscilla Collins, two popular members of the junior class. The E. P. fencing team won another championship for the school, the only junior on the team being Stan- ley Ballinger. Another victory was won when E. P. was successful in winning dramatic honors in the Dramatic Tour- nament. There was only one junior in the play, Stanley Ballinger. Then came the awarding of the R. I. Honor Society pins and the Junior A ' s who received them were Edna Brown, Ruth Fish, Helen Grant, Olive Healey, Myrtle Machon. Frances Mc- Laughlin, Dorothy Mitchell, and Audrey Whitman. After a strenuous winter we emerged into spring and tackled baseball, another Page sixty-three sport in which the Junior class was well represented. In tact . Mahlon Allen. a member of our class, was the captain and some of the other juniors were Ralph Temple, Russell Thorburn. Frank Veader. Elliott Halpin. Jake Shaw, and Loring Chase. So we were drawing near the end of another year and wc were sad to think that our friends in the class of ' 3 2 would soon be leavmg, and we cer- tainly did wish them luck and thanked them for the privilege of being invited to their Senior Reception. Well, another year gone and a good ten weeks rest in view. Ho Hum! In September, 19 32, the class of ' 3 3 returned after the summer recess, notice- ably more dignified. As we walked through the halls we felt the eyes of respectful sophomores and juniors fol- lowing us with envy. Classes got under way, and as we be- gan to look forward to the beginning of the football season, we were delighted to find that some of the best players on the team were ' 33 ' s. Some of them were Herbert Wyatt. fullback, who. by the way. made the R. I. All-State football team, as did our captain. Mahlon Allen: but Alfred Lawson, Leonard Hibbits ' Elliott Halpin. Ber- nard Goodwin. John Ayres. Herbert Kenney. Loring Chase, Henry James, Fred Hill, William Chappell, Royce Smith. Malcolm Ray, Russell Thor- burn. Leonard Ohsberg. and several others did splendid work on the team. The people on the sidelines worked hard in encouraging the team and among the cheerleaders, who directed them, were our own Phyllis Hayman and Etta ' Viall. Our Junior Varsity, however, of - mpr- which we were very proud because of its unbeaten record, had a few 33 s also; they were Norman Greene, Orin Hanratty, Frank Veader. Donald Hud- son. James Boyce. Ralph Temple, and Archer Duncan. Then came the first party of the year, a Hallowe ' en party, held in the Central Junior High Auditorium. A great num- ber attended the afi ' air although the weather wasn ' t all that could be ex- pected. It was a grand success and those who worked to make it so were Betty Bourne. Mildred Hibbits. Robert Gil- bert, and Alfred Lawson. Then the Library Auxiliary elected officers and the 3 3 ' s walked off with all the honors. Lois Allen was chosen president; Margaret Carter. Secretary; Mary Rourke. Publicity Chairman; Cecilia Henriques and Margaret Myr- bcrg. executive committee; Catharine Dye and Grace Williams, publicity com- mittee. Speaking of elections, we held our class election and the winners were President. Mahlon Allen; Vice Pres- ident. Barbara Thayer; Secretary. Martha McCormick; Treasurer. Flor- ence Robertson: Social Committee. Pris- cilla Collins. Chairman. Eillen Fife. Mary Mulvey. Henry James. Robert Gilbert, and Howard Smith. The 3 3 ' s will long remember Miss Alice Sund- berg. our class advisor, who has had so much to do with the success of our class and who is loved bv all. Quite a few of our class were on the track team. Those who did us credit were Stanley Holt. Alfred Lawson. Edward Caulfield, Fred Hill. Lennie Hibbits, Stanley Ballinger, John Ayres, Herbert Wyatt, and Donald Hudson. The Hi-Y elected as its officers Henry Page sixty-four James, President, and Loring Chase, Vice-President, of ' 33. The Girl Re- serves had as its President, Priscilla Col- lins and its Secretary, Mildred Hibbits, also ' 33 ' s. Then another big event approached, the School Play. Again the Seniors were well represented. Those who as- sisted in the production of the play were Barbara Pickersgill. Martha Smith. Priscilla Collins, Dons Healy, Leonard Hibbits, Carl Maryott, and Ernest Angell. The play was a huge success and everyone enjoyed it. Our basketball and hockey teams worked hard but were not very success- ful. However, we were proud of the boys who struggled for victory. The seniors on the basketball team were John Ayres, Frank Veader, Lennie Hib- bits. Jake Shaw, and George Stockett. In February the Juniors held their prom and, of course, all seniors were invited. The hall looked lovely with its decorations appropriate for Valen- tine ' s day and we suddenly realized that this Junior class was very competent along social lines. Then came the long awaited event, the Senior Class Play. This year our coach chose Hottentot. a play built around a horse story. Those chosen to play in it were Barbara Thayer. Martha Smith. Betty Bourne. Herbert Wyatt, George Peters, James Sullivan, Frank Veader, Elliott Halpin, Ernest Angell, Albert Ormiston, and Francis Gofton. The committee in charge of the play consisted of Lennie Hibbits, chairman; Alfred Lawson, Robert Gilbert, Harriet Pearson,- and Barbara Pickersgill. The play was excellently presented and at- tracted a large crowd which enjoyed it a great deal. After the excitement of the senior play, we looked forward eagerly to the baseball season and found our class again represented by Mahlon Allen, Frank Veader, Russell Thorburn. Ralph Temple. Elliott Halpin, Jake Shaw, Loring Chace, and several others. Henry James was manager. So we draw near the end of our days in E. P. H. S. and we are in a fever of excitement during tests and college exams. Finally, however, we receive assurance that we shall graduate. In June we shall receive our reward for three years work, the diploma. Then we shall have our last social event, the Senior Reception. East Providence, we bid thee a fond but sad adieu. We ' ll miss these dear old class rooms and corridors but life beckons and we must go. Farewell.

Page Seventy-one LIITERAR The Deserted Village So this was the deserted village! I made a short tour of exploration, then lay down on the fragrant grass under one of the ancient, weather-beaten apple trees and relaxed my weary body. It was hot: the August sun beat down fiercely on the old orchard. The dron- ing of the bees as they flew here and there among the flowers was like a lullaby — it reminded me of one of the teachers at school, whose buzzing, monotonous voice caused half the mem- bers of the class to nod their heads. I raised my head for another look. There, opposite me, were the old. lichen -covered stone walls — evidence of man ' s labor in days gone by. Along the wall were three rectangular pits lined with stones. At a short distance from the largest hole was a huge stone slab — once a doorstep, and at the rear of the smallest pit was a well, long since gone dry. On the other side of the wall was the old Post Road, once the main road to Boston, but now no more than a path for skunks and woodchucks, and for an occasional deer. I turned my head and looked into the woods on the other side of the orchard: there, shaded by a huge oak. was the old grave-yard, whose worn slate headstones silently told a bit of the history of the settle- ment. Most of these grim gray markers were dated between 1840 and 1860, and nearly all bore the name Atwood. This was the place of which I had heard; it was in order to sec this that I had pushed my way through the track- less woods, trusting to luck that I could find the place. The incessant droning of the bees was taking effect: the Vv ' arm sun made me feel drowsy, and I fell asleep wondering what the place looked like a hundred years ago. I raised my head : the bees were still droning about me: the sun streamed down as hot as ever: and the apple-tree still shaded me. I looked across at the towering oak — the graveyard was gone! Startled, I turned my head and looked into the stupid face of a cow, placidly chewing her cud! Now I was surprised, and looking toward the cellar-holes — did I say cellar-holes? There stood three rugged, unpainted houses, one much larger than the others. At the rear of the smallest house, a pretty, simply dressed girl was drawing water from the well. At the edge of a dis- tant meadow a burly, bearded man was cutting a tree, his axe reflecting the sun- light as it swung rythmically through the air. From the distance came the beat of hoofs: at the sound the girl straight- ened up and listened: then with a glad cry she ran to the road. Unfortunately, a high bush hid her from my view, but I heard her cry a happy greeting as horse and rider galloped into view. The rider, a tall, strongly built young man with a handsome tanned face, checked his horse and sprang to the ground, Smce, try as 1 might, I could not see through the intervening bush, I turned my attention to the woodcutter. As I looked, the tree fell with a crash. The man looked over at the couple whom I could not see: instantly his face twisted into an ugly scowl — ah. Page Seventy -two he must be the scorned lover, or the villain of the play. With a cry of rage he whirled his axe above his head and hurled it. The blade gave a blinding flash as it flew through the air. Ah. it was missing its mark: it hit the side of the house and — lo and behold! the houses all fell with a tremendous crash — the well spouted water into the air — it all fell on me and I awoke to find myself in the midst of a thunderstorm. Loring D Chase. ' 33 On Society A wise old owl lived in an oak: The more he heard, the less he spoke. The less he spoke the more he heard Why can ' t you be like this wise old bird? John and I had looked forward to Mrs. Social Prestige ' s dinner party. We expected to find it a very ornate affair with the motley collection of guests characteristic of her affairs. Mrs. Pres- tige always exerted herself to the utmost in order that her success as a hostess would outdo that of her neighbor, Mrs. Ima Highhat. Despite the strain on her husband ' s pocketbook, Mrs. Prestige spent lavishly in the endless struggle to keep up with the Jones . At dinner I found myself between a Mr. Bigwig and Mr. Merry Man. Mr. Bigwig was content to expand on the subject of what he had done, was doing, and was going to do in the service of the God of Money. He was one of those men who live, breathe, and exude the power of the Mighty Dollar, with no respect for another person ' s ideas or feelings whatever. All I had to do was let him talk on, while I smiled ap- preciatively at the right places, though Page Seventy-three to be sure I understood nothing of what he spoke — price systems, marginal sell- ings, and so on, endlessly. At length, politely but wearily, I turned towards Mr. Merry Man, who was bravely sus- taining the endless chatter of Miss Polly Prim, an elderly spinster whose social service work was commendable though boring after thirty minutes of listening to it. Mr. Merry Man was a jolly little fellow beloved by all his friends for his good humor and kindliness. His eyes twinkled at me sympathetically, and we fell into a discussion of the latest books. Not once did he mention depression, income taxes, or business. Across the table I noticed Dr. Valor ardently des- cribing his last big game hunt to Miss Dearie, encouraged by her admiring at- tention. Farther on. Will Athlete was engrossed in an animated conversation, on his side anyway, with Sylvia Sweet on the relative merits of tennis and golf. The young artist, Mr. Drawwell, was striving to gain the attention of Miss Sw et. but that young lady was kept busy admiring and agreeing with the tall Will Athlete. I found I enjoyed myself by listening and smiling, but offering no opinions, for I have found that the more silent but agreeable man is better liked than the talkative, argumentative type. The world would be a pleasanter place, as my friend John remarked afterwards, if more people would cultivate the art of being a good listener. Eleanor McLaughlin, ' 33 ooo Men of Today Men are taught from boyhood to be chivalrous. A little girl who plays with boys often obtains much plunder be- cause most of her playmates Iiave al- ready been initiated into the mysteries of Politeness to Ladies and will re- linquish their possessions rather than hit, or even tell on, her. Whereas, if a boy were to try to take another ' s plaything he would probably receive a punch in the nose. A jmall boy who has been punished for hitting a girl who has taken his most prized possession will be meeker and milder henceforth in regard to such matters, but the girl will keep on being bad. He has been bound to the wheel of courteous behavior on which the men of today pay for their forefather ' s sins. Chivalry had much to recommend it in the eleventh century, but it has less today because of woman ' s growing independence. Women have proved that they can support themselves very satis- factorily. Why, then, must a boy who has just begun to work pay for dances, meals, and theaters so that he can en- joy a girl ' s company. ' ' Chivalry demands it and every boy must be chivalrous. If a man treads on another man ' s privileges, he will correct his mistake if the man insists because behind the ob- jection IS a possible punch in the nose. If a woman makes the same offense she will ignore the objections because she knows that under the law of chivalry no harm will come to her. A man can hear a woman preach sex equality but see her practice sex superiority. Women are loyal to women, and men who make women unhappy, no matter how much they deierve it, are brutes to other women. A woman is responsible for masculine lop-sidedness. Mothers instill into their sons ideals of chivalry and teach them that the opposite sex is gentle, tender, and delicately made, and that they have a cleaner intelligence than men. And. what is more, women justify this state- ment. Probably no one has ever heard of a mother instructing her son in de- tense tactics against the depredations of women. It isn ' t done. Elizabeth Shaw, ' 33 THE STORY OF A FEUDAL MANOR Feudalism was introduced into Europe by the nations after the fall of tl:e Roman Power and has left im- portant traces in most European coun- tries. The feudal constitution or doc- trine of tenure, extended itself all over the western world, and the feudal laws drove out the Roman law, which had hitherto universally prevailed. This system was adopted in most countries of Europe from the ninth to the end of the thirteenth century, but it varied in various particulars in the different coun- tries. The feudalism of England differed from that of France from which it was taken. Every great lord exercised a jurisdiction, civil and criminal, over his immediate tenants and held courts and administered the laws within his lord- ship like a sovereign prince. Let us now turn and study the daily routine of a feudal family. On the morning of a particular August day which is to show us some- thing of the life and surroundings of a home in Feudal England, Brian dc la Niddle was aroused from a heavy sleep in his comfortable, though not too clean, bed in the solar of Ketilsing by a man servant, soon after five. After the warmth of the depth of the feather bed and equally voluminous feather stuffed Page secenty-four — ' IDF quilts upon which and under which he had slept, the morning air chilled his body and made him gasp, for in the manner of the times he slept stark naked. He is not concerned with wash- ing, and dresses with his skin unre- freshed and scarred with flea bites. ( He shaves his cheeks and chin every two days.) First he slips on a linen under shirt over which comes a well-cut under- tunic or a green woolen material falling to the knees and having long, tight, buttoned sleeves. Over this he draws a short uppertunic or cyclas of a darker green cloth, spangled with stars or silver thread and girt around the waist with a silver and leather girdle. He also dons knee breeches of the same material which can be seen through the open front of the undertunic, which is divided from the waist to the hem for freer movement. He covers his legs with green woolen stockings, and on his feet he puts a pair of stout leather shoes, to the heels of which are attached prick spurs. After combing his hair which falls in ringlets on his shoulders, he crowns it with a fur-trimmed green velvet bonnet. Had the day been wet he would have added to his ' costume a voluminous cloak or overall. The final touches to his costume are a pair of strong leather riding gloves and the in- evitable sword and knife. His wife on ordinary occasions wears a close linen gown, a supertunic of brightly colored silk, fitting her figure closely, a vivid sheath for her body above the waist and falling freely to her feet: and over all she favors a gaily patterned, fur-trimmed mantle of some ri ch material. Like most married gentle- women of her time, she wears the stiff linen whimple. her plaited hair being confined in a caul of gold thread and covered with a veil. To Brian de la Niddle, the place seems wonderfully comfortable. The solar is about twenty-five feet long and twenty feet wide, with a lofty timber roof, the beams of which are clouded with cobwebs and black with the smoke of the occasional open fires that had been burned there on the few occasions when Brian or his wife was sick. The uneven board floor is strewn with rushes and rosemary. The room is sparsely furnished. Three massive chests of oak. simple in form, innocent of ornament, and crude in construction, provide accommodations for an assort- ment of clothes, armor, weapons, jewelry and prized possessions, such as plates, bedding, and napery. The chests stand against the wall and serve as seats, together with a long cushioned bench. The only other pieces of fur- niture are two low trestle beds. There IS a stone staircase on the outside wall that leads down into the outer court. It is the only means of getting into the solar. The living room is very large and docs not have much furniture. Here the family gathers and spends its day, eats its meals and listens to music. In the middle of the floor is a large flat stone slab on which a big fire of peat and wood burns in winter, filling the hall with smoke before the chimney, a hole in the roof, protected by a louvre, does its work. On one side of the hall is a large table with benches on the side at which the people eat and throw the scraps to the numerous dogs and cats that roam through the hall. Pac e Seventy-five Nip Under the hall is a rat infested cellar. The cellars are used as tool sheds, barns, cowsheds, and stables. The castle is surrounded by a moat on three sides and defended on the fourth by a tower. There is a drawbridge on one side that gives access to the bridle path that leads to a village a little distance away. Over this drawbridge, falcon on gloved wrist, accompanied by another man, rides Brian de la Niddle a few minutes after he has finished dressing and has drunk his rising cup of home brew. He is off to the moor for a little early hawking. After he comes back from hunting he rides to the village to hear the morning mass at the parish church. Dinner, the first of the two daily meals, is served at nine o ' clock. The trestle tabic in the hall has a linen cloth spread over its rough boards, and is set with trenchers and drinking cups, dishes, and bowls. Each member of the family brings his own spoon or knife to the table; forks are as yet unknown The meal begins with porridge, fol- lowed by fresh trout, heron and grouse, and a great joint of boiled salted beef. Large quantities of coarse wheaten bread and thin oat cakes are eaten with the fish, fowl and beef: and the men drink huge draughts of beer, the women drinking the sweeter metheglin. At the end of the meal Brian sends for Rathcbayne. a man who combines the offices of steward and bailiff, and together they set out on a tour of in- spection around the manor, mounted on the small but sturdy moorland ponies. Rathebayne carries with him bread, cheere. and a large leathern bottle of beer for midday refreshment. Pass- ing over the drawbridge, they skirt the edge of one of the three immense com- mon fields of the manor. The land within the manor is cultivated on the three field system, one field lying fallow while the other two are under crops of barley and oats. Each strip is separated from those on either side of it by a narrow piece of unploughed land called a baulk. The peasants have to work from dawn to sunset. When Brian de la Niddle and his stern bailiff ride through one of the great fields of the manor, they pass men hard at work reaping the golden grain with sharp sickles, men dressed m ragged tunics that come to their knees, with their legs bare, or else with gar- ters of plaited straw criss-crossed over coarse stockings, with shoes of the roughest make upon their feet. These men redouble their efforts as they catch sight of their lord and his bailiff, their taskmaster. Rathebayne is an ill man to cross, and is capable of making a serf ' s life even more insupportable than it is already. Passing through the big oat field and skirting the fallow, the two horsemen come to the village green. around which cluster the timber and wattle hovels of the tenant-farmers and laborers. Each hut consists of a single room in which the whole famdy eat. sleep, and live in the greatest squalor, without any suggestion of sanitation. By the side of the river Nidd stands the lord ' s water mill, at which every tenant is compelled to grind his corn, the mil- ler taking a small proportion of the grain in payment for his work. Brian ' s tour of the estate occupies four hours, and they are nervous hours for Rathebayne. The lord asks in- Page Seventy-six numerable questions on agricultural matters, approving here, complaining there, suggesting improvements, and giving orders. At two o ' clock they arrive at the courthouse for the monthly court. Brian, of course, is president of the court. Not until the vesper bell sounds from the church do the pro- ceedings end, enabling Brian to mount his horse and ride back to Ketilsing Hall, accompanied by agreeable thoughts regarding the revenue the court has brought in. When Brian reaches the hall, he re- freshes himself by washing his hands and feet in a bowl of cold water. He then goes into the solar where he finds his wife embroidering a brightly colored tunic for his small son. Pres- ently they sit down to supper in the great hall, together with a knight and his squire, who were passing through the village on their way to Lancaster, and who claimed the hospitality which was always readily accorded. Supper is the principal meal of the day and takes place about six o ' clock. The first dish is a hot soup of mut- ton and vegetables. This is followed by grilled trout and crayfish, roast rabbits and hares, a roast sucking pig stuffed with plums, a boiled shoulder of mutton, venison in pastry, and finally buns and biscuits from the manor bake- house, and a form of souffle eggs, saffron and cream. The squire himself waits upon his master, the knight, be- fore sitting down to eat. At the far end of the hall sit the servants of the manor who are not engaged in cooking or serving, and they take a tribute from the substantial remains of each suc- cessive dish as it is removed from the head table. What little food remains is then distributed to the handful of poverty stricken wretches who gather outside the Hall every evening to receive this kindly mark of their lord ' s regard for the welfare of his tenants. Soon after the supper is eaten. Lady Alicia retires to her room. The men, drunk from so much beer, laugh and talk until late in the evening and then retire with much unsteadiness to the solar.

Barbara Thayer ' ooo The Cross at Maiden ' s Cliff Five years ago this summer I went camping in Camden. Maine, at the base of Mount Megunticook. Right above our camping site and about half-wav up the mountain, a large white cross stood in bold relief, marking the spot where sixty-two years ago little Elinora French met a tragic death. It was back in the Civil War times when the French family was living at Lincolnville Beach. One day Eiino- ra ' s oldest sister had planned to drive to the neighboring village with a friend, and Elinora begged to go along. It was against her mother ' s wishes, for she thought that she would be in the way. but she finally consented and the child danced happily away to put on a new dress. ' WHien they arrived in town, thev were met by a young man, Mr. Randall Young, who invited the young ladies to climb the mountain with him. They were delighted and started off in gay spirits. They finally climbed to the top of a cliff, and as they stood looking down on numerous little lakes and islands, Mr. Young went to get a big stone to roll over the edge of the cliff to show them how high they were. Hlinora ' s cister sat talking to her friend a little away from Elmora. Thev were watching the child. Her hair wa; blowing around her face and she was trying to put her hat on. They turned away for a moment, then heard a pierc- ing cry. Startled, they looked at the place where Elinora had been. She had disappeared! They rushed to the edge of the cliff, but they could not get near enough to see where she had fallen. Mr. Young sent the two young women to get help while he attempted to scale the cliff. They hurried to the village and got men while Mr. Young crept over the face of the cliff and found the little girl. The men made a litter of boughs and tenderly placed her on it and carried her to Lincolnville. It was estimated that she had fallen about three hundred feet. It was found that she had a bad bruise on her back but not a bone in her body was broken. It was internal injuries, the doctor said, that killed her. She died at twelve- thirtv that night without regaining consciousness. Her father and mother were with her. but. of course, she did not know them. The business men of Camden have erected a cross at this spot to mark the scene of the tragedy, and visitors to Camden frequently make a trip to the mountain to view it. Barbara Kennedy. ' 35 East Providence In the Olden Days Here is news! — news indeed, for you proud citizens of East Providence who Page Seventy-eight hold your noses so high at the mention of the town of Rehoboth! That now- called one-horse town once included Seckonk, Attleboro, and a part of Swansea in Massachusetts, and East Providence. Cumberland, and a part of Pawtucket and Barrington in Rhode Island. East Providence since its first development has been held m the clutches of two states and three towns. After this heart-breaking setback for you people to whom my previous des- cription may apply, let me describe a little of the background of the mother- town of Rehoboth. Through purchases from the Indians were formed the lands over which the rule of Rehoboth first held sway. The first white settler in Rehoboth was the Reverend William Blackstone who ar- rived in these parts a year before Roger Williams. The coming of Roger Williams, as all good Rhode Islanders know, and his settling at the mouth ot the Ten Mile River from which he was soon driven, was the next event in the history of the little town. For the fol- lowing 226 years, in fact, the question of the boundry between Massachusetts and Rhode Island was disputed and finally was settled in a manner proving that Roger Williams was in the right in the beginning. The permanent settlement of Re- hoboth was begun in the spring of the year 1644. when the Reverend Samuel Newman and fifty white men with their families built their houses in a semi-circle around Seekonk Common, opening towards the Seckonk River with the church and parsonage in the center. Reverend Newman explained the name of the Settlement when he said. The Lord hath opened a way for us. In 1645 the people submitted to the jurisdiction of Plymouth Court and in- corporated under the Scripture name of Rehoboth. After thirty years of peace- ful life for the settlers, however. King Philip ' s War began in 167 5 and lasted for two years. In July of 1675, See- konk was privileged so far as to see Philip himself stalk across her plain with a group of warriors. The Rev- erend Noah Newman led an attack against this famous Indian leader and killed a number of Indians. King Philip evidently did not like his cordial re- ception in the little town, for on March 28 of the following year, he burned every building in the Ring of the Town except the garrison house and one other. All the inhabitants, except one, escaped to the garrison house where they remained to watch with sorrowful faces the smoking ashes. The town was soon rebuilt, and on December 4 the selectmen of the town agreed to keep school for six months with Robert Dickson as the teacher. The school was kept in different sec- tions of the town so that all would have to go a very convenient distance at some time or other. Yes — I imagine some of our high-s:hool folk who get to school on the ringing of the last bell, think that this would be a very agreeable affair if the school was set up near their houses constantly! Mr. Dickson was paid thirteen pounds, one-half in money and the rest in board. Thus, at an early time, our little town showed her in- terest in education. At this tim: also, it is said that there were wharves and stores at the mouth of a cave on the Ten Mile River. Many Page Seventy -nine 5 Npr persons came from Providence and roundabout to do their shopping. Im- agine going to Seekonk ' s beautiful shops to buy imported goods just arrived at the great wharves on ocean liners! During the Revolution, the town was noted for its patriotism, and quan- tities of saltpeter were manufactured and sent to aid the struggling soldiers. A tax was levied in 1646 in order to build the first meeting house which was completed in 1647 and stood where the tomb now stands near the Congre- gational Church. A second church was erected fifty-nine years later, thirty feet east of the first one, and this stood for ninety-six years. Now comes the time for you haughty citizens again to regain your composure, for in March, 1862, a part of the old town of Seekonk passed under the ju- risdiction of Rhode Island and has since been designated by the honorable name of East Providence! Immediately af- ter twelve o ' clock on that day. Gover- nor Sprague declared East Providence a separate town and welcomed her to Rhode Island. Salutes were fired from Fort Hill at sunrise, noon, and sunset by a detachment of the Grenedier Bat- tery under Sergeant Major A. A. Bab- cock. A general holiday was kept and everyone felt the spirit of importance. The first town meeting was held at eleven o ' clock on the same day, and the formal separation from Seekonk was made. The population at that time was 1,250, but thirteen years later it had increased to 4,336. Between 1862 and 1876 eighteen school houses were built, and $39,820,07 was expended for this purpoce. I have no doubt but that the ceven cents was added to assure the peo- ple that every penny of their money that was expended for this purpose was counted! Perhaps you would be in- terested in a school report of 1889 which stated that there were 1,734 per- sons of school age and 1.507 registered with the thirty -eight teachers in the town. The weekly salaries ranged from fifteen dollars for principals of grammar schools to seven or eight dol- lars for assistant primary teachers, while the principal of the high school re- ceived thirty dollars. The bridges across the Seekonk have been of such great importance to the town ' s welfare that they are very wor- thy of mention. Until 1793 the See- konk was crossed by ferries at the sites of the present bridges. In 1793 Cen- tral Bridge and Washington Bridge were opened, but these structures were carried away by a spring freshet in 1807 and when replaced they were destroyed by the September gale of 1815. I ' m just a ' wondering how big a freshet would have to be to carry away our present Washington Bridge! The old Central or Red Bridge was run by toll until, in 1869, it became impassable by reason of a collision with a vessel pass- ing through its inconvenient draw. The present free bridge was opened for travel in July 16, 1872. This bridge increased the value of the town from $2,461,000 in 1871 to $5,383,500 in 1875. If future time brings so rich a heri- tage as past. I promise you that future citizens may well hold their noses on level with the sky with little rebuke from any source! Margaret Carter. ' 3 3. Page Eighty Old China — Her Manners and Customs China like all other countries is be- coming modernized, but much more slowly than others. China very tena- ciously clings to her old manners and customs, many of which are very quaint. Worship of ancestors has always figured largely in the religion of the Chinese people. The Chinese as a rule work for their family and care nothing for others. The filial piety of this race has always been considered its greatest virtue. The old Chinese cities have very nar- row streets. One can stand in the mid- dle of a street and with out-stretched hands touch both walls. These narrow streets which are paved with flagstones, are roofed with straw to shut out the sun. Signs, beautifully carved and in- laid with gold leaf or enamelled in brilliant colors and bearing the firms name, make the streets ablaze with color. Nothing on wheels, not even a jin- riksha, enters a foreign concession. The Chinese do not put their goods on display. One must ask for what he desires. The merchant in black gown, black skullcap, and cloth shoes waits upon the customers. On an abacus, a little counting board consisting of wooden balls on wires, the cashier counts up the sales. The many shoe stores which sell shoes for old-fashioned and modern Chinese, are also factories. There are shoes so small that an American girl could not get her hand in one, much less her foot. These are made for the Chinese with bound feet, and are of finest silk embroidered in silver and gold. The old-style man ' s shoe is of black satin with a sole of white wood as thick as two of your fingers. The costume of old China is chang- ing more rapidly than anything else. The skull-cap with feather or button on top is being put aside. The bright- colored silk gown of the wealthy Chinese men is less frequently seen. Chinese houses of old were more like unoccupied storerooms than homes- There were no easy chairs in the houses. Curiously shaped panels with pictures by Chinese decorate the walls. Old geographies teach us that rice and rats form the chief diet of the Chinese, but this is not true. Rice, although produced in large quantities in China, is too expensive for the poorest classes to eat. The rats which the Chinese relish are not of the com- mon gray species with which we are familiar, but ones that are caught in the fields. The flesh of black cats and dogs is especially esteemed because it is supposed to give courage to those who eat It. The poorest classes of Chinese eat almost every part of any animal. The prices in restaurants in China rise as one goes upward. The cheapest meals are served on the first floor, and the better ones on the second and third floors. It is a compliment to one ' s neighbor in a restaurant to pick the choicest morsel from one ' s plate and, bowing, offer to place it in his mouth. No cloth covers the table, and brown paper serves as a napkin. After the meal a wet towel is passed around, and each guest wipes his face and neck. The temperature in China is gauged not by the thermometer, but by the number of garments one puts on. Two- suit days are mild: three-suit days, Page Eighty-one • colder: and five or six suit days, ten or more degrees below zero. The Chinese New Year, which occurs later than ours is a sort of Christmas, Fourth of July, birthday, and Sunday mixed together. A man must pay all his debts before the New Year celebra- tion. Everyone considers himself a year older on this day, and for ten days be- fore, the country prepares for the cel- ebration. All China buys, borrows, or rents satins, furs, and silks to dress in on this day. Every person is supposed to take a bath the day before. Red. which denotes good luck and pros- perity, is used for cards, invitations, wrappings, and inscriptions bearing characters praying for good fortune, wealth, and happiness. Red fire crackers are set off to frighten away evil spirits, and hardly anyone goes to bed the night before. The Chinese have many superstitions. A Chinese is not allowed even to die in peace. When the end seems near, the person is stretched out on a board. lest his soul take possession of the bed. If he dies before he is moved, the bed must be destroyed, and the room renovated. The Chinese will not permit a cat in the house with a corpse because they believe it has power of bringing a corpse to life by jumping on it. When the corpse is prepared for burial, bed quilts, parcels of quicklime, and clothing are placed in the coffin. Care is taken to place no fur in it. They believe that this action will cause the deceased to be born again as an animal. Sometimes the corpses arc kept months rather than be buried when the spirits are unfavor- able. The funeral procession is a gala affair, and the funeral ceremonies are terminated with fire crackers and theatricals at the grave. It is not un- common to give one ' s parent or grand- parent a coffin on his sixty-first birth- day. According to old Chinese belief it is not respectable for a boy or young man to do his own courting. Professional matchmakers are employed for this pur- pose. Many children arc betrothed be- fore they can walk. It is considered a disgrace to be twenty and unmarried. The marriage ceremony usually takes place in the evening at the home of the groom. The girl is carried in a covered chair of bright red to her future hus- band. A great deal of noise and many escorts accompany the bride to the bride- groom ' s home. After the ceremony, which takes place upon her arrival there, the bridegroom lifts the red veil, perhaps seeing her face for the first time. The bride must obey all commands of her mother-in-law. Her status rises only when she bears a son. A man may have all the concubines he wishes, but his first wife is legal mother to all the children of the secondary wives. Edna Brown.

The officers are as follows: Presi- dent, Henry James; Vice-President, Lormg Chase: Secretary, Starling Bur- gess: Treasurer, Harry Woodbury. The meetings are held every Thursday after- noon. The membership in the club is selective and is based upon five qual- ities: character, scholastic standing, leadership ability, attitude towards other students, and school activities. The club publishes the Student Handbook once a year for the new students of the school, to acquaint them with facts about the school. Once a month the Hi-Y has charge of an Assembly program. Two speakers have been furnished. Bob Huntsman, a senior at Harvard, spoke on the topic •■College — What does it Mean? Will- iam Gilbane, captain of the 1932 Brown football team, spoke on Athletics — The Part they Play in School Life. Both speakers were very interesting. The society has charge of the Caf- eteria Management. Wallace Hastie is chairman of the committee. This com- mittee take charge of the cafeteria during the lunch periods and takes the place of a teacher. The Hi-Y is a very valuable organization. Page Eighty-fve The Girl Reserves is an organization in which arc girls of all three years — one of the few clubs where seniors, juniors, and sophomores meet socially. The underlying purpose of the Girl Reserves is to find and give the best and its slogan is To face life squarely . Its threefold aim is to develop girls in mind. body, and spirit. Any girl is welcome to join provided she has shown a willingness to join by attending three successive meetings. This organization numbers about twenty-five, and this year the activities have included trips to Hood ' s Milk Company, the Old Ladies ' Home, The Biltmore Hotel, and the Mayfair Laun- dry. The club also sponsored an as- sembly on Hood ' s Milk. The directors of the club are Miss Girl Reserves Gilbert and Miss Ryan. The officers are as follows: President, Priscilla Col- lins: Vice-President. Grace Allan: Sec- retary, Mildred Hibbits: Treasurer, Lois Allen. The code of the Girl Reserves is as follows: G racious in manner I mpartial in judgment R eady for service L oyal to friends R caching toward the best E arnest in purpose S eeing the beautiful E ager for knowledge R everent to God V ictorious over self E ver dependable S incere at all times Page Eighty-six The Library What are the objects of this active organization called the Library Aux- iliary? Effective service to everyone in the school by use of material in the library, adding to the attractiveness of the library, aiding the librarian, and at the same time enriching their own lives, are some of the important things ac- complished by its members. Recently in a nationally-known magazine, The Library Journal. there appeared an article concerning the East Providence Library Auxiliary, which is very grat- ifying. During the year, the members of the Auxiliary have ably shown that they are interested in other things besides Auxiliary books. On November 1 6 they presented a play in the assembly entitled Four Keys to the Library in celebration of Book Week, and the library held a festive air during the entire week. On December 1 3 they held a Christmas Sale, the returns from which are to be used for library materials. Money was also received from the sale of candy at the school play. You and L The Aux- iliary also assisted with the Athletic Dance which was held in February. If you could have peeked into the library on February 16, you would have seen its members having a won- derful time at a very successful Valen- tine Party. Continued on page 1 1 2 Page Eighty-seven One of the activities which brought great honor to the school this year was debating, in which East Providence was the victor. Under Mr. Pass and Miss Kaplan a debating society was formed for the purpose of arousing interest in debating and enabling the two coaches to select from the society the two teams which would represent us in the league. Practice debates were held and among the subjects discussed were Women should share equally with men in the expenses of an evenings entertainment and Advertising should be abolished. Finally the two teams were selected, Elizabeth Bourne, Harry Woodbury, and Arnold Briggs. alter- nate, for the affirmative: Belinda Tay- lor, Albert Paine, and Edmund Barber, alternate, for the negative. The prize at stake offered by the Rhode Island College of Education was the cup, on which we already had two legs and needed but to win it once more in order to retain it permanently. The subject of the debate was Resolved; That the United States Should Cancel The War Debts Contracted With The Allies. Excitement ran fever high as prep- aration began, the whole society co- operating in compiling the material, and soon East Providence was ready to meet each of its three opponents, Hope, Central, and Central Falls. The first debate was held on March 8, and a large group attended and was rewarded by seeing the East Providence affirmative team defeat the Hope neg- ative team and by learning later that Continued on page 1 1 1 Page Eighty-eight - W School Play YOU AND I You and I. the annual school play. was a huge success both financially and dramatically. How could it have been otherwise with a play so splendid and a cast so well chosen? The story of the play concerned a young man whose father wished him to study art, a plan of the father ' s youth: but because of an early marriage the father had been forced to enter business to earn enough money to sup- port his wife. The son. although he would have liked to study art, was in love with a girl whom he wished to marry. The play progressed from one exciting scene to another, the humor being provided by the family maid who turned model. The play ended happily for all concerned. Page Eighty-nine Ernest Angell as the young man anxious to marry was convincing and his singing was a treat. Martha Smith as the girl whom he wished to marry and who was willing to make a noble sacrifice for his sake was charmingly sincere. Doris Healey and George Rodericks, as the mother and father of the young man, were splendid and at times the audience was near tears when the mother felt that she had hindered her husband ' s career. Mary Dickhout as the maid provided the comedy element, and the audience certainly showed its appreciation of her ability to play a humorous character. Charles Devaney and Thomas Baird gave skilled performances which added the color of the play. This year, as in past years. East Providence High School entered the New England Dramatic Contest. The play presented was Drums of Oude which is a gripping story based on the difficul- ties between the English and the Indians in India. During the play the audience was kept in suspense wondering whether or not the Scotch regiment stationed in India would be saved by reenforcements, and so realistic was the tension that un- til the last moment we held our breaths. The play showed the finished coach- ing of Miss Alden. Louis Guenther, as a hardened Captain who was determined to keep the Scottish ammunitions fron the Indians, won our hearts, as did Phyllis Roberts who played a sweet, strong woman with whom he was in love. Richard Mansfield, George Rodericks and Stanley Ballinger made convincing young Scottish officers, and the shivers actually ran up and down my spine as Ray Bouchard and John Medciros tip- toed around the stage as crafty Indian servants. Page ' inety Semior Play The members of the Crimson Board have agreed that the play presented by the class of ' 33 was the best we have seen while in high school. Miss Cullen selected both a fine play and excellent players. The play, Hoten- tot, deals with horses and a thrilling horse race. The setting of the story is a country estate and among the guests is a young girl who is very fond of horses and horse racing. She is in love with a man whom she believes to be a famous rider, but, m reality, he has an overwhelming fear of horses brought on by an accident and has not ridden for SIX years; also there is a young divorcee, her husband, the host and hostess, as well as two or three other guests. A rather slow-witted butler adds much humor to the story and on Page Ninety-one the whole the characters are varied and interesting. Barbara Thayer as the young girl gave one of the best performances and charmed the audience, while Herbert Wyatt as the horse-shy, handsome young man set the hearts of the girls palpitating and pleased the rest of the audience. Martha Smith as a gay divorcee was very sweet and convincing and Loring Chase as her husband was splendid. Betty Bourne, as the hostess, and Francis Gofton, as her husband, were splendid, and Frank Veader was marvelous as the dumb butler, — the audience certainly appreciated his performance. Ernest Angell, James Sullivan, Frank Veader, and Albert Ormiston were all good and the play was a huge success. A series of squeaks, the blowing of horns, the whining of saxaphones, and the orchestra has launched on another voyage to the land of music. At almost any time in the day one can hcjr the orchestra struggling over its musical notes in Room 20. Our favorite school musicians, with their trusty instruments, can generally be found there. The orchestra is composed of forty to fifty members, among whom are Janette Francis, our pianist: Herbert Speakman, our cornetist: Ernest Bush, our violinist; Melvin Blackwell. our saxaphonisf, and many others too numerous to mention. Some well known selections played by the orchestra arc Blue Danube Waltz, Second Symphony by Joseph Hadyn, Hungarian Dances by Johanne Brahms, and Concerto by Rubenstein. The orchestra intends to play in the annual spring concert at which Janette Francis will play Rubenstein ' s Con- certo. Hadyn ' s Second Symphony will also be on the program. The orchestral contest for high schools will be held at Woonsocket. All winners in the state contest will go into the New England Contest at New- port. We sincerely hope that the orches- tra will fare as well as it did in the contest last year at which it won scct.ind place. Page Ninety-tiuo Thrift Contest The Thrift Council has for irs director this year Miss Ryan. The off- icers are as follows; President, Mildred Hibbits; Secretary, Marie Gartner; Treasurer, Priscilla MacKay. Each room has two representatives for the council except the three small rooms whic h have only one. A representative from the Educational Thrift Service of New York, Mr. Donovan, spoke at one of the meetings and told of the activities and duties of the Council. He also spoke at one of the Tuesday morn- ing Assemblies. The purpose of the Council IS to promote the banking spirit in the school. It has succeeded very well so far. A play- called The Saving Sense was presented at an As- sembly period under the direction of Miss Ryan. The cast was as follows; Mr. Barrett Orrin Hanratty Jack Barrett Lewis Meservy Tom Ernest Chase Bill Melvin Blackwell The purpose of the play was to get more students to bank. and blend well with the higher pitched voices of the sopranos. The Glee Club will appear at the Class Day exercises and at Graduation. The Glee Club The Glee Club, of which Miss Hope Smith is director, was organized at an early date this term. In answer to the call for members some forty-five girls heartily responded. They have practised regularly, and have filled the corridors with their happy melodies and silvery voices. The altos provide the harmony The Band A band period! A general rush for Room 20, and then — music! The band has again assembled to break the peace and quiet of the third floor. The tunes begin to invade the corridors and the occasional boom of the bass drum sets the rhythm for the other players. The band is made up of about forty members. In order to give more per- sonal training to each boy, Mr. Wiggin conducted six periods each week for the band. In this way the band was divided into small groups so that personal in- struction was made easier and more beneficial for the student. Mr. Wiggin spent a great deal of time and patience in these training periods to help the boys to play better. This year the man- ager of the band was Daniel Mahler. The band expects to enter the State Contest for Bands to be held in Woon- socket on May 6. Last year the contest was held at the Central Falls High School and the boys surely did play their instruments that day. This bas- ketball season, the band has been more than active at the basketball games. At almost every home game, the band has been in its place to encourage the players with its lively music. All in all, the band is an organization of which everyone should be proud.

Practise called off — the married men, Wyatt, Lawson, Halpin, Continued on page 1 1 1 Page One hundred three This year wc entered the contest for the hockey bunting with as shght a chance of winning the coveted banner as any East Providence team ever had. With too few veterans, and material promising but not at all seasoned, the outlook was none too bright. Not only was lack of material a handicap to Coach Smith, but our Florida weather experienced this past winter prohibited any outside practice, and our treasury could not afford practice sessions at the Arena. In the past our coach has turned out championship teams with no more promising material than he had this year, but he had sufficient ice to enable the team to practice as often as necessary. Nevertheless our team participated in the greater part of the battles during the campaign. We believe that the record of the hockey team this year, considering the handicaps under which the team was working, is comparable to the record of any team in the state, and a truly enviable one. Wc congratulate the hockey team and the coach on the fine performances and splendid sportsmanship exhibited throughout the year. Page One hundred four In our first game of the season we tackled the Town Team. The game was played for charity and although our opponents were semi-pros, we played them to a standstill. Our reg- ular team was composed of Captain Vic Tkacs and Santillo on the for- ward Ime, Long John Ayres at center, and Tilly Davis and Stockett in the back court. With this speedy com- bination on the floor and with our ample supply of replacements we won a hard fought game. On December 23, we entertained Hope Street High in a fast game. Hope got the jump on us early in the game and gained a lead which we could not overcome during the remainder of the game. On January 4, we journeyed to Attleboro for a tussel with the Attle- boro High School. We gained an early lead but could not hold it. On January 6, we went to Cranston to play our first league contest. We met stiff opposition from our opponents and were pushed to win the game. At the next basketball game with Attleboro, January 11, we displayed a strong wealth of power and sub- merged our opponents in defeat. On January 13, we met the defend- ing champions, the Pawtucket Redjack- ( Continued on Page 111) Page One hundred five Girls ' basketball is becoming more and more popular at East Providence. It is pleasing to note, also, that the sport is looked upon as enjoyment for the many, rather than as an opportunity to develop the few, as is the case where interschool contests are held. This season there were two series of games in which a greater number of girls participated than in previous years. The various class teams were captained by the following girls: Senior A ' s, Olive Casartello; Senior B ' s, Elsie Tucker: Junior As, Edith Fagar. : Junior B ' s, Nellie Davis: Sophomore A ' s. Rita Brunnell: and Sophon ' ore B ' s. Anita Palomba. The Senior A team, victor of the 1932 interclass tournament, captured honors again this year, with an un- defeated record. The members of this last moving team are as follows: Olive Casartello, Captain Lillian Hascall, Lucille McLaughlin, Priscilla Johnson, Josephine Edmonds, Evelyn Buegling. Helen Gislun, Helen Arsenault, and Marie Tracy. The substitutes were Mavis Tingley and Margaret Broadway. The manager of the season ' s game was Dorothy Mitchell, with Charlotte Pierce as assistant manager. Page One hundred six Since Mr. Goodwin joined our coach- ing staff as track coach, our team has rapidly become a factor m the track championships of the state. Last spring we placed fifth at State College in the Rhode Island championships with twelve schools entered, and also placed second in the Interscholastic League meet at Brown with seven schools entered. East Providence ' s best showing in these two meets previously had been no bet- ter than ninth at Rhode Island State College and fifth in the League meet. We were unable to field an indoor team this year because of lack of train- ing facilities, but a team was entered in the State Indoor Championship Meet with good returns, notwithstanding the fact that practice had been an unknown indulgence. The prospects for the outdoor season are not as bright as last year, due mainly to a tragic lack of field event performers. To counter-balance this lack of field event strength, we boast, this year, the best running team in the history of the school. This weakness, self evident, in the field events is due to injuries and ineligibilities. We feel assured that this nineteen thirty three edition of the track team will continue to build up the prestige of old E. P. on track and field, which was begun with the inception of Mr. Goodwin to our coaching staff. Page One hundred seven tMt t ! r VI t is T , ■ JJllP AS T - i ; f Sr - . L S i , B EJ iS Last year our baseball team was potentially great but it was not until this year that it was able to play to the best of its ability. Last year the team placed sixth in the League competition and fourteenth in the State compilation. At this time we are headed for a championship with six victories an ! no defeats. We have the best schoolboy pitcher in the state this year with an exceptionally fine fielding team sup- porting him. This year ' s aggregation IS the best batting team that has repre- sented the school in a long time. We feel sure that the team will bring home the baseball pennant. There is only one fear in our minds at this time and that is the lack of a reserve pitcher of sufficient ability to give Marshall a rest. The team has scored two shut-outs in six games to date and has an excellent cnan:e to be underfeated this year.

DEBATING— Continued the East Providence negative team had been successful also. Both teams re- ceived the unanimous decision of the judges. On March 15 and March 22 East Providence again won unanimous de- cisions, much to the joy of the crowd which had trebled since the first debate. What joy!

Most thrilling game of Paqe One hundred eleven BASKETBALL— Continued cts. We caused the Redjackets to worry plenty and forced them to their utmost before they at length won out. On Wednesday. January 18, we in- vaded Country Day School. We ex- perienced little or no opposition from our opponents and slaughtered them. On January 20, Woonsocket visited us. There was one fellow in particular who shot baskets one-handed and who proved our undoing, and we lost the game. On Tuesday, January 24, Central visited us. Gaining the lead early in the game, we were never threatened there- after. On January 27, West Warwick, sev- erely hampered by the loss of its stars, visited us. Because of this and because of our better playing our opponents went home sadly overwhelmed. On January 31, we continued our string of victories by taking Cranston into camp. Incidently our School Com- mittee lost a Basket Shooting Contest to the Cranston School Committee. The big thrill of the season came on February 3, when our boys romped over LaSallc. After being behind for the first half, our team took the lead and won the game. However, on February 7, our win- ning streak was broken by Woonsocket. As Woonsocket always has been a jinx, it probably always will be one. We were severely trounced. Once again, on February 10. we were defeated by Pawtucket. Although we were defeated, we forced the Redjackels to fight for the victory. At West Warwick on February 14. we returned to our winning streak but not to our former stylo of play. How- ever, we triumphed with a few points to spare. Our victories were continued with a victory over Central on February 17. Our clever guards, Davis and Stockett, again showed up in keeping Central ' s forwards bottled up. There occurred on February 21. in the Central Junior High School a most remarkable event. The defeat which we pinned on LaSalle was that event. The LaSalle offense was so well covered that not a field goal was scored. Incidentally, the LaSalle Captain scored his team ' s lone point. Since we had finished in third place in the league, we gained a place in the Championship playoffs. Our first op- ponent was slated to be the De La Salle team of Newport. After a hard, fast game we were eliminated from the -TUpj road to the championship. In a con- solation playoff with Cranston we were defeated. One reason why we lost the game was that our Captain Vic Tkacs was out of the fray because of doctor ' s orders. In the last game of these play- offs we encountered LaSalle. Again with one of our stars absent from the fray we lost. However, our Jayvces played well all season. Since several good players from the Junior Varsity and several regul ars from the Varsity remain, our prospects for a good season next year are promising. LIBRARY AUXILIARY— Continued For the remainder of the year, they have planned to assist Miss Hill at a meeting of the Rhode Island Branch of the New England School Library Association on April 29. to hold a bridge, to celebrate Annual Library Day in May. to present the pins, and to publish The Bookworm ' ., which IS being edited by Margaret Carter with the assistance of Margaret Myrberg. Beverly Sumner, Florence McGauley, Catherine Dye and Phyllis Mahler. The officers for this year have been as follows: President, Lois Allen: Sec- retary, Margaret Carter: Treasurer, Mildred Hibbits. The members sincerely hope that they have broadcast the library over all stations in the S. H. S. network and that they will be able to continue the interesting work for years to come. I ' age One hundred licelve ' MESSAGE OF THE PRINCIPAL Continued thing, however, is clear, and that is that one of the primary objectives of all education should be to so stimulate pupils that the school work serves only as a starting point for the real education that comes when classroom work is over. One of the leading educators in this country recently cited as an example of perfect educational methods a young lady who stated that she was looking forward to being released from college classes at graduation so that she might have the opportunity to investigate thoroughly some of the many subjects that she had found so interesting during her college career. Time had been at a prcrnium during the days of college classes and she had had to pass by with scant consideration a great many sub- jects that had held considerable fasci- nation for her. To a high degree that is all that our school courses can hope to do. To the members of this graduating class I should like to make the suggestion that if a great deal of the work here at East Providence has excited your interest and curiosity so that you want to continue your study of particular subjects, whether in college or on your own, your time here has been well spent. If, on the other hand, your sole object has been to acquire the requisite points for graduation and then close your books for good and all, your work has been in large measure just so much waste effort. I have a deep personal interest in the class of 1933, an interest that arises in part from the fact that it was my privilege to have many of you in my classes a year or so ago.
