THE ACADEMY HERALD 25 of thanks was given to Nick Amato for selling the most Carnival tickets. lf you want to anger a Sophomore beyond description, mention the name of Herman, the bear. Herman was the unfortunate mascot of the girls' a11d boys' basketball teams. The girls' team was captained by Marian Colby, and was composed of Hope Bean, Emma Blake, June Enman, Rachel Field, Dor- othy Fish, Elizabeth Gorman, Madelene Jordan, Patricia Laverty, and Herbert- ina Norton. Herman brought great suc- cess for the first few games, and then he seemed to lose all interest. The Freshmen finally defeated us in the struggle for the championship. The same sad fate awaited the boys, only the Juniors. rather than the Freshies, won the championship. The boys' team was captained by Billy Robertson. and the other members were Whipple Abbe, Nicholas Amato. Levi Baker. Carlton Barker. Edward Bean, Lewis Littlehale, and Charles St. Thomas. During the past year, we have done our utmost to preserve the traditions of Gould and to make our class worthy of the wonderful opportunities provid- ed for us. lt is our earnest hope that. in the two years which lie before us at G. A., we may continue to participate ac- tively in scholastic and athletic activi- ties. and that we may carry with us at all times the memory of many happy days spent in Gould. Herbertina Norton FRESHMAN NOTES A very green Freshman Class en- tered the great door of knowledge of Gould Academy,.last September 19. The class was composed of fifty-two mem- bers then. but four new members have since joined us. Our class officers are: Malcolm Brown, president, Nora Chip- man, vice-president, Ida Lee Clough, secretary, Winfield Wight, treasurer. Our class colors are green and gold, and our motto is Not for one, but for all. After the Freshman Reception on Oc- tober l9, the first big event of the year, we felt we were full-fiedged Freshmen, and really belonged to the student body of Gould Academy. Our class has done well in athletics. Several of the boys, throughout the year. have showed much interest in track, football, basketball, and will. no doubt, show great interest in baseball. The girls' class basketball team won the honor of being the unde- feated team. Many of the Freshman girls went out for hiking, horseshoes, tennis. and volleyball. Several Fresh- man boys and girls took part in Gould's Winter Carnival on February 16 dlld 17. NVe hope to do better throughout our coming years. so that our class will have a place on the list of high-ranking classes in Gould History.
