CRIMSON and BLUE ATHLETICS IIE football season of 1920 was very gratifying, al¬ though not as successful as we would like to have had it. Practice started soon after school opened, and about thirty fellows came out for the team. After much hard work, the team was picked, and although it was not successful in all the games it was a formidable rival for any aggregation. On Saturday, December 4, Everett played at Bridgeport, Conn., and lost by the score of 7 to 0. After the game the team went to New York and stayed until Sunday night. The fellows returned to school Monday morning in time for the second per¬ iod. tired but happy, because of the showing they had made. The senior class of 1921 may well be proud of its members of the foot¬ ball team. Of the men that received their letters, twelve belong to the class of ’21. They are Eames, Beck, McQueeney, Bussell, Winchester, Ililtz, Lewis, Merchant, Harry, Timelier. Anderson, and Horner. Beck, the center on last year ' s football team, has announced his. in¬ tention of returning to school next year, and has been elected captain of next year’s team. The baseball practice of 1921 started the last week in March and almost fifty candidates reported for practice. The team was picked most¬ ly with the idea of building it up and developing it for the next year or two. McCarren, who plays, second base, is the only senior playing reguharly on the team, and has played good ball as far as this season has pro¬ gressed.

CRIMSON and BLUE CLASS of 1922 HE first important step in the life of the “Jolly Jun¬ ior” is the election of class officers, so, shortly after the opening of school in the fall, we assembled in the main hall and an exciting election was. held. Those elected to office were Andrew Oberlander, president; Harry Hall, vice-president; John Conway, secre¬ tary; Orin Emerson, treasurer; and Wilson Noseworthy, assistant treas¬ urer. Not long after this, it was, decided that a play should be given by out¬ class, in order to raise enough money to purchase a new state flag for the assembly hall. Chester Whiting was chairman of all the committees; cos¬ tume, play, etc. Those chosen to take part in “Mr. Easyman’s Niece,” were Kenneth Doherty, Chester Whiting, Samuel Brooks,, Gladys Moore, Wilhelmina Johnson, Mary Hutchings, Madeline Chase, Harold Bilker. Harold Sparrow, and Paul El¬ liott. Although we knew that some¬ where talent was hidden from sight in the class, we little realized wha, it fully was. Much credit is due Miss, Bradford as coach of the play. Those Juniors who were awarded their “E” in th e fall at the close of the football season were Kenneth Doherty, Douglas Bruce, and Andrew Oberlander. Those representing the class on the diamond are Harry Hall, the veteran pitcher, Paul Elliott, Searles, Dearington, Jimmy Oberlan¬ der, and Chesley Corkum. The only existing club in the class is the Commercial Club in which for¬ ty or more Juniors are members. Ilrn-y, being fond of the vice-presi- n.;’s office was elected as such, and it Conway, assistant treasurer. Talent is plentiful in the class, and f, tose whose talent along the line of singing has led them to be chosen as members of the Girls’ Glee Club are Marjory Cate, Myrtle Edgett, Winni- fred Curran, and Alice Fuller; all these have been members since their freshman days,. Marjory Gokey, however, is one of this season ' s deb¬ utantes. Walter Morris, chairman of the Monday Morning Entertainment committee, was one of the speakers in the debate between Latin and Ev¬ erett High. Walter was. also chosen to speak in the Prize Speaking Contest. His good work met for a second time with the favor of the audience and he was once more awarded the audience prize. Mary Hutchings, chosen from the girls to speak, met with the judges’ favor and was awarded tlw ftrst prize for girls. “Work while you work; play while you play” has always been one of our mottoes so on April the eighth we gathered in Whittier Hall for the Junior Prom. Oscar Terrio had been elected chairman of the com¬ mittee; Kenneth Doherty, business manager; Milton Beattie, treasurer; and Alice Fuller, secretary. Ed Ho¬ gan furnished the music. The ma¬ trons were Miss Bradford, Mrs. Beat- fie, Mrs. Terrio, Mrs,. Doherty, and Mrs. Oberlander. To use the country- paper expression “a wonderful time was had by all!” A Near-East Belief committee was formed in March, Naclion Keljigan being chairman, and a drive was im¬ mediately launched. Thanks to little sacrifices, on the part of the pupils, much money was realized. Commit¬ tees were formed in each room which did remarkable work in stimulating the drive. Chester Whiting was the Junior Representative on the Christmas Committee and worked willingly and well—in a truly commendable way. Thus ends the account of the work done by the Junior Class this: and t». (he departing Senior we have only to a y: “Be strong, we are not here to play, to dream, to drift; vVe have hard work to do, and loads to lift; Shun not the struggle, face it. ’tis God’s gift.” Mary Hutchings.
