Nearly everyone knows Esther, one of the cheerleaders who worked so hard at the fair. “Et” is a good friend and is always willing to help her friends—not always her friends either. “Et” has not decided what she will do when she graduates, but we wish her the best of luck from the Class of ’35. JOSEPH JOHN ANDREWLEWICZ “Joe” ‘‘Actions speak louder than words” “Joe” is known to everyone in the school as the boy who collects the most pink slips. He does not have any in¬ terests in school. One could note that by the way he rushes out of school at 2.00 o’clock sharp, or rather at 3.00 o ' clock. Anyway, the best of luck, “Joe.” HARRY WALTER ARCHER “Harry” ‘‘Silence is golden” Harry is one of the quietest boys in the Senior class. However, he isn’t so quiet when he is out of school. Al¬ though he does not take part in the scholastic events he is a real friend. Harry frequents Shattuck Park after school. ROBERT LEROY ASHLEY, JR, “Brother” ‘‘Everyone cannot help but like this chap” Student Council (2, 3) ; Orchestra (1, 2); Band (1, 2); Junior Guid¬ ance Council; Assemblv Orchestra (2, 3, 4); Hi-Y (3, 4); Track (3, 4). “Brother,” as he is known to his best friends, has been in nearly every musical organization during his four years. None of the students will for¬ get how he used to meet “Margie” after every period. He is a good pal and a great friend. G. H. S. wishes you success in whatever you undertake. HAROLD RUSSELL BABINO “Butch” ‘‘Ah, make the most of what we yet may spend” Band (2, 3. 4); Orchestra (2, 3, 4); Assembly Orchestra (2, 3, 4) ; Senior Dance Orchestra. Who can forget how faithfully (???) “Butch” has played in Assembly Or¬ chestra for the past three years? His accomplishments have all been in the field of music, so we know what a good musician he is. “Butch” and Gordon are always seen together in the car. Take care, “Butch.” RUTH ELINORE BAKER “Ruthie” ‘‘Silence is woman’s best ornament” “Ruthie” is one of those girls who prefer to be seen and not heard. She is a great friend, and she has a big sense of humor. Her spare moments are spent writing letters to “Squirt.” Lots of luck to a “swell” person. EVELYN JEANNETTE BALLOU “Bluey” “We look for her that sun-like stood” Girls’ Basketball (1, 2); Field hockey (1, 2) ; Exponent (3, 4) ; Year Book Staff; “The Family Up¬ stairs” (4) ; Band Drum Major (4) ; Alpha Beta Pi (1,2, 3, 4); Dramatic Club (4); Student Council (2); Class Prophet (4). Never to be forgotten for her por¬ trayal of Annabelle in “The Family Up¬ stairs,” “Evy-wevy” has a smile for everyone and a wonderful sense of humor. During her four years at G. H. S. she took an active part in sports and the Exponent, VERNON ALFRED BANNACH “Pancho” “Leave us leisure to be good” Vernon is one of our quiet Seniors who couldn’t quite find time to par¬ ticipate in some of our activities. He is liked among his own circle and is well known for his laugh. BETH BARKER “Betty” “I ' ll make my joy like the small butter¬ fly whose happy heart has power to make a stone a flower” Chorus (1, 2). “Betty,” although not as well known as some of her classmates, has made many friends during her four years with us. She has not made her future plans public as yet, but we are sure that whatever she attempts will be crowned with deserved success. PAUL PETER BARTAK “Bart” “I strove with none; for none was worth my strife” Paul is one of G. H. S.’s “quieter” boys who has succeeded in the print¬ ing and woodworking departments. Paul has not yet decided what he will do next year, but G. H. S. wishes him good luck and success. 12 RALPH LEONARD BASSETT “Ralph” “Here, there and everywhere” Pro Merito; Archery Club (2, 3, 4, Treasurer 3, President 4) ; Commercial Club (3, 4, President 4); Hi-Y (4). Ralph has taken an active part in school activities, especially in the Arch¬ ery and Commercial Clubs. He may be seen almost anywhere and any place with Edith. Lots of luck, Ralph. BERNARD JAMES BEAGARIE “Bernie” ‘‘Never idle a moment,” Pro Merito (4); Exponent (2). Bernard really studies 1 The few min¬ utes there are before and after assembly find him poring over his books. Every night he takes home a great armful of books. When the girls tease him he doesn’t seem to notice. Because he will be somebody” some day, the other boys admire him secretly. Go to it, “Bernie”! HELEN ANNA BEDNARSKI “Helen” ‘‘Antony our girls she holds her place” Intramural Basketball (1, 2, 3); In¬ tramural Field Hockey (1, 2); Intra¬ mural Basketball (1); Chorus (1) ; Commercial Club (4). It isn’t hard for Helen to hold her place. The boys (of surrounding towns as well as Greenfield) seem to enjoy her company. She has already started her business career working at the Tex¬ tile Company on Powers Square. Dancing and all sports are her pastimes outside of school and working hours. Is it any wonder that her home work is done in school hours ? MITCHELL MARTELL BEHILO “Mitch” ‘‘Men of few words are the best men” Mitchell comes to school each morn¬ ing on the bus from the Green River Road. This blond boy doesn’t go in for outside activities. He is quiet but not too quiet. Whenever he is in Room 14 he is talking across the aisle, but not to a girl. He doesn’t seem to be interested in them-—yet. CATHERINE ANNA BELLOWS “Kate” ‘‘All are not saints who go to church” Intramural Basketball (1) ; Style Show (2); Chorus (2); Archery (1); Art Club (2). “Kate” likes to dance. When a new dance step comes in just ask “Kate” and she will show you how it goes. She made a perfect Jean Harlow at the Hol¬ lywood Premiere down at the Lawler Theatre last winter. With her ever in¬ teresting contributions to a class she will be greatly missed next year. VIRGINIA VERONICA BELTON “Beltie” “I like fun and I like jokes ’Bout as well as most the folks” Exponent (2, 3, 4) ; Archery (2, 3) ; Dance Committee (4) ; Property Committee (4). Our “Beltie” is the blonde who is always “on the go.” If there’s any¬ thing of any importance going on, “Beltie” is right there. “Jack’s” is a famous hang-out for her for more than one reason, and she may be found there ’most any afternoon. If a giggle is heard in the midst of silence that will be “Beltie.” Her plans for next year are undecided, but we know that she ' ll be a success in whatever field she enters. THOMAS EDWARD BERGERON “Tommy” “He that is of a merry heart hath a continual feast” Soccer (3) ; Baseball (3) ; Intra¬ mural Basketball (1, 3); Printers’ Guild (3, 4); Aviation Club (1). “Tommy” is that tall, blond boy from Room 14 who has a cheery “Hi” and a smile for everyone. He loves to fish and hunt, and in his spare time he may be found wandering the fields and woodlands in search of fish and game. “Tom” is undecided about his future. Best of luck, “Tommy.” CHARLES HERBERT BERNSTEIN “Sharlie” “My kingdom for a science book” Intramural Basketball (2); Expo¬ nent (3, 4), Circulation Manager (4); Year Book Staff (4) ; “The Family Up¬ stairs” (4) ; Stage Manager (4) ; Arch¬ ery Club (2); Debating Club (2, 3); Science Club (3, 4); Hi-Y (4). Charles, “Sharlie” to you, is the fel¬ low you see hurrying about the cor¬ ridors with a stack of books under his arm. He has done much fofVmr school and has a high standing in lifckstudies. Charles hopes to go to M. S. (A, where he will take up Chemistry. Best of luck, Charles. ELIZABETH BURRELL BERRY “Betty” “What is your duty? What the day demands” Exponent (4). The smiling “Betty” is well known in our class. While her scholastic rec¬ ords are good, she finds her best time in her activities outside of school. A happy disposition such as hers will lead her through a happy life with many companions, we are sure. JOSEPH CORNELIUS BIRCH “Joe” “Friends are known in time of need” “Joe” has been little seen or heard of during his schooling in G. H. S. Al¬ though he is quiet lie has made many friends. His favorite sport is fishing and he also is an excellent swimmer. His greatest ambition is to take life easy. “Good luck” to you, “Joe.” 13 EDWARD CURTIS BLAKE “Eddie” “A rolling stone gathers no moss Baseball Manager (4); Intramural Basketball (1, 2, 3, 4); Dance Com¬ mittee (4) ; Senior Card Party Com¬ mittee (4) ; Science Club (2, 3) ; Dra¬ matic Club (4); Glee Club (1, 2, 3, 4) ; “Tbe Family Upstairs” (4) ; Band (3, 4); Orchestra (4); “Chonita” (2); “Trial by Jury” (3). “Eddie” is a happy-go-lucky chap who is often seen and heard in the cor¬ ridors. He has taken part in many ac¬ tivities and is an active member of the Dance Committee. His chief hobby is dancing. “Eddie” wishes to become a member of the Merchant Marine. May luck go with you, “Eddie.” GRACE ELIZABETH BLANCHARD “Grace” “Only deeds give strength to life, onlg moderation gives it charm” Exponent (2, 3, 4) ; Year Book Staff (Assoc. Editor); Alpha Beta Pi (3, 4); Orchestra (2, 3, 4); Silver G (3, 4); Pro Merito; Latin Club (3, Secretary); Valedictorian (4). Grace is one Senior who is destined to go far, not only because of her abil¬ ities but also because of her good na¬ ture and desire to succeed. Grace plans to attend college next year, and we all wish her good luck and happiness. ALFRED JOHN BONNEVILLE “Bonnie” “ Patience, persistence, and power to do are onlg acquired bg work ” Football (1, 2, 3); Hockey (2, 3, 4); Baseball (I); Year Book Staff; Card Party Committee (4); Student Council (2, 4); Hi-Y (3, 4). Everyone likes “Bonnie.” He’s one of the jolly members of our class, and we should be lost without him. His one ambition is to be an aviator. Well, happy landings, “Bonnie.” PAULINE JANE BORA “Janie” “There is great abilitg in knowing how to conceal great abilitg Exponent (3, 4) ; Commercial Club (4); Assistant Librarian (3). Pauline is that very likable girl who always has a smile whenever you meet her, and who, therefore, has a great many friends. Her greatest ambition is to become a nurse. We know sbe ' ll make good. JEANNETTE EVELYN BOUSQUET “Jeannette” “Smooth runs the water where the brook is deep” Chorus (1). Jeannette has not entered into many activities during high school, but nev- erthehss she is a good student and is liked by everyone. Although her fu¬ ture is undeeidtd. we wish her good luck. JOHN EDWARD BRADY “John” “Pure compound of odditg, frolic, and fun! Who relished a joke and rejoiced in a pun” Football (3, 4) ; Intramural Basket¬ ball (1, 2, 3, 4); Hi-Y (2, 3, 4). John is that happy-go-lucky fellow you see around in the corridors. He is very popular, especially with the oppo¬ site sex, and can John take it! Just ask him. IDA JENNIE BROOKS “Brooksie” “To know how to hide one ' s abilitg is great skill ' ’ Ida has well divided her interests between her studies and home during these last four years. A model of in¬ dustrious habits about school, still she finds time outside for the enjoyment of dancing and swimming. She enjoys above all the womanly arts of sewing and cooking at home. Our best wishes go .with her. THOMAS ARTHUR BROUGHAN “Tommy” “From harmony, from heavenly har¬ mony, This universal frame began” Football (2, 3, 4) Syncopators (4). Thomas is one of our popular sing¬ ers, and he made a big hit in the Syn- copator shows. “Tom” likes to play golf, and is also one of the most val¬ uable players on the football team. He is undecided about his future. Good luck, “Tommy.” ERNEST EVERETT BROWN “Brownie” “Man was born for two things — thinking and acting” Track Team (2, 3) ; Glee Club (4) ; “Trial By Jury” (3). Ernest to some, Everett to others, and “Brownie” to all is this boy with¬ out whom our class would not be com¬ plete. lie is taking his experimental period quite seriously, making an in¬ telligent effort to find for what he is best suited. However, he doesn’t al¬ low his deep thoughts to spoil his over¬ whelming sense of humor, which makes “Brownie” a favorite. Best wishes for his future. LOIS BROWNELL “Loie” “Wherever there is a human being there is an opportunity for kindness” Alpha Beta Pi (1, 2, 3, 4, Secretary 3); Dramatic Club (4). Undoubtedly one of the sweetest girls of our class, “Loie has never been known to say or do anything which would hurt anyone. Onite the contrary, her unusual tact has many times saved us from trying situations. With such a lovely disposition she will always be surrounded by a host of help¬ ers and friends to ma ke her life after she leaves us one of the happiest. 14 STELLA BRZEZINSKI “Stella” “Modesty becomes a young woman” Commercial Club (4). Stella is one girl who has a good time in everything which she does. We all associate a pleasant smile with her presence. The out-of-doors attracts her and claims much of her time, although it may well he noticed that her studies do not suffer. One who avoids trouble as she has in high school may be ex¬ pected to lead a pleasant life after graduation. May the best come to her BERTELL IRENE BURNETT “Bertell” “And I oft have heard defended Little said is sooner mended” Bertell, the little girl from Room 15, is the personification of “seen and not heard.” She is friendly, studious, and always willing to lend a helping hand. Although she is very quiet, she is a good friend to all. Upon graduating she plans to enter social reform work. Good luck, and lots of it, Bertell 1 EILEEN LOUISE FRANCES BURNS “Smudge” “She seemed a thing that could not feel the touch of earthly years” Hockey (1, 2); Class Basketball (2, 5); Exponent (4); Year Book Staff; Senior Dance Committee; “The Family Upstairs” (4); Alpha Beta Pi (3, 4); Dramatic Club (4). Smudge” is one of the well-known girls of the Senior class. You can al¬ ways tell her by the big smile and cheerful mind. She does not spend any more time in school than necessary, but we are always glad to see her. The whole school wishes her lots of luck. llAMES JOSEPH BURNS, III “Jimmie” “Me that ' are been what I ' ve been!” Football (1, 2, 3, 4); Baseball (1, 2, 3, 4); Hockey (1, 2, 3, 4); Senior Dance Committee (4). Is there anyone who doesn’t know “Jimmie”? He is the athlete of the Senior class, and is seen at all the dances, games, in fact, everywhere there is a crowd. He and his pal, Maloy, make a pair which the high school will certainly miss. We all hope he succeeds as well in sports when he enters prep school as he lias here in high school; anyway, “Jimmie,” best ’o luck! OLIVER RALPH BURR “Ollie” “I would help, out of a fellow feeling” Second team baseball (1); Expo¬ nent (4); Junior Council; Card Party Committee (3) ; Dramatic Club (4) ; Orchestra (2); Chorus (2). “Ollie” is the cheerful “crooner” of Room 15. When everything is dead he ' s always willing to liven things up a bit by singing. He is well liked by all who know him, and has made many friends in school. His ready smile and friendly manner will be long remem¬ bered by all. May good luck follow you wherever you go, Oliver 1 FRANCIS PAUL CADRAN “Frannie” “On with the dance! Let joy be unconfined” Pro Merito; Tennis Manager (4); Intramural basketball (2, 3) ; “Family Upstairs” (4) ; Hi-Y (3, 4, Vice Presi¬ dent 4) ; Dramatic Club (3, 4, Presi¬ dent 4), Science Club (4); Dance Committee (4). “Frannie,” whom we all remember as the lead in the Senior Play, is about the friendliest boy in the class. He is popular with the boys, and with the girls—why go into that again? He nev¬ er misses a dance and escorts a differ¬ ent girl to every one. “Frannie’s” fu¬ ture plans have not been made as yet, but his good nature is bound to make him succeed. HAROLD RAYMOND CALL “Harry” “Why study when sleep is so sweet” Everybody knows the tail blond who is always slipping into classes just be¬ fore the bell. He is good natured and always smiling and has made many friends during his four years here at G. H. S. He hasn’t been very active in clubs or sports, but who doesn’t know that center on the “Tiger ' s Bas¬ ketball Team ? Your many friends wish you luck! RUTH KATHERINE CAREY “Dimples” “Never was found a gayer, happier person” Junior Council; Chorus; Year Book Staff. Do we know Ruth? Oh yes! She’s the girl with the smile and warm greet¬ ings for everyone. She ' s a happy-go- lucky girl and loved by everyone. The chemistry class will miss her as will all her other classes. Ruth plans to enter the Wesson Memorial Hospital in Springfield this fall. The class of ' 35 wish you all the luck in the world, Ruth. PAUL ALLEN CARROLL “Red” “The world always listens to the man with a will in him” Pro Merito; Track (3, 4); Chorus (3, 4); Glee Club (4); Printers’ Guild (3, 4, President 4) ; Trial by Jury” (3); Special Honors (4). Paul is the President of our Print¬ ers’ Guild this year and we all know what good work he has done. We also find him crooning with the Chorus and Glee Club and we know what a big help his strong voice is to the bass section. Paul hojies to continue with his print¬ ing, and G. H. S. wishes him the best of luck. AGNES BEATRICE CASEY “Agnes” “The path of duty leads to the castle of happiness Year Book Staff. Agnes has won the greatest honors in Home Economics and 4-H Club work of any girl in G. H. S. She has even won the Franklin County cham¬ pionship for doing the most and the best canning in the county. We ex¬ pect her to continue with this line of work, and wish her more of the success that she is now having. 15 HAROLD EDWARD CASH “Harold” “When it comes to doing a thing in this world, I don’t ask myself whether I like it or not, hut what ' s the best way to get it done” Hockey (3). Harold is one of our quiet fellows, and a good worker. He plans to take up Commercial Art after leaving school and we all wish him the best of luck in his work. DUNCAN STEARNS CHAMBERLIN “Dune” “A handful of common sense is worth a bushel of learning” Hi-Y (2, 3, 4); Archery (2, 3); Boys Chorus (4); Junior Council; Dance Committee (4) ; Cheer Leader (3, 4, Captain 4). Surely no other fellow can surpass “Dune” in amiability, kindness, and good humor. He is a prime favorite with boys and girls alike, for you can always depend on him. Good luck, “Dune,” and heartiest wishes for suc¬ cess. MILDRED EVELYN CHAPIN “Millie” “Quiet, but all the more worthy” “Millie” does not like to say much, but that pleasant smile of hers takes the place of many words. She has many friends, for she keeps all those she makes. She likes to have good times, but her lessons do not go unprepared. Millie” has not decided what she will do next year, but we know she’ll be successful in whatever she undertakes. DONALD DARSON CHOINIERE “Sweeney” “Man is nothing but contradiction” Donald has stayed out of the lime¬ light during his High School career. We seldom see him in school after school hours. However he is a good sport, and has many friends among the other fellows of his class. He en¬ joys making dull classes lively. ALBERT THOMAS CICHANOWICZ “Chicken” “Staunch and fearless he faces the world A man of mystery is Albert. Every¬ one wonders where he spends his time and where he finds his enjoyment. He says he hasn’t done anything and yet we all know that he would be missed if not around. His plans for the future are vague, but the best wishes of the class of ' 35 go with him. MORTON DAVIS CLARK “Mort” “Thou goest more and more to the silent things” Hockey (4). “Mort” seems to derive fun from al¬ most anything. We never see him glum, but with a smile for everyone. “Mort” doesn’t seem to take an interest in the fairer sex, but maybe some day some young damsel will pierce his armor. Our best wishes are with you, “Mort.” BENJAMIN PHILLIP COLLINS “Droopy” “O Bennie! O Bennie! Tender and true!” Hockey Team Manager (4) ; Student Council (3) ; Science Club (2, 3, 4) ; Chorus (4); Finance Committee (4). “Bennie” is always around and will¬ ing to help anyone in a tough spot. This and his ready wit make his popu¬ larity lasting. We hope we won ' t lose sight of him as he advances along the path to a bigger and be tter future. ELEANOR IRENE COLUCCI “Eleanor” “There ' s a woman like a dewdrop; She’s purer than the purest ” Chorus (1, 2) All Eleanor ' s interests have not been in school. Because of this she is not well known to all. Only to those chosen few who know her best does she show her real characteristics. Although all of us do not know her intimately she cannot conceal those sterling qualities. We feel sure she will succeed in life. ROGER WILLIAM CONANT “Judge” “My life is one dead horrid grind” Science Club (3, 4, Vice President 4); Archery (3). We feel sure that school won’t be the same without “Judge.” His spirit of deviltry lends the pep, vim and vigor that are the necessity and joy of every good class. This quality of vivacious 1 ness is also necessary to succeed in any pursuit. We feel justified in our hopes for his future. EMILY ROSE COOLIDGE “Em” “A rose is sweeter in the bud than full blown” Class Secretary (1); Class Vice President (3); Alpha Beta Pi (1, 2, 4); Student Council (1, 2, 4); Ex¬ ponent Collector (4); S. A. S. Col¬ lector (4); Year Book Staff. Although we were so unfortunate as not to have “Em” with us our Junior year, she stepped back again into her old place in school life and hearts for her last year. Though some of us may lose sight of her in the ensuing years, we may be sure that none will forget her. 1G CATHERINE MARIE CORLISS “Kaye” “A lovely lady with eyes of unholy blue” “Cherry Blossom” (1); Commercial Club (3, 4, Scribe 4); Chorus (1, 2); Pro Merito (Vice President). “Kaye” is one of those people you just can’t get along without. She is known not only by the Commercial but also by the Liberal Arts and College students. She must have been born to be popular, for she seems to have an unusual ability for making and holding friends. MARGARET CROSSMAN “Peggy” “Knowledge is power” Pro Merito; Class Salutatorian; Hockey Team (2, 3) ; Archery (2, 3, 4); Exponent (2, 3); Year Book Staff; “Fads and Frills” (2); Orchestra (2); Archery (2, 3, 4, Secretary 4) ; Alpha Beta Pi (3, 4); Latin Club (3, Treas¬ urer); Silver G; Student Council (4, Scribe). “Peggy” is one of our most con¬ scientious and accomplished students, and with her twin sister has received one of the highest ratings in her class. She has many friends and has partici¬ pated in numerous activities. We hope her attainments will reach the same ex¬ tent at Smith College. RUTH CROSSMAN “ltuthie” “The mildest manners and the gentlest heart” Pro Merito; Field hockey (2, 3) ; Ex¬ ponent (2, 3, 4) ; Year Book Staff; Senior Dance Committee; Archery Club (2, 3) ; Orchestra (2, 3, 4) ; Latin Club (3) ; Dramatic Club (4) ; Alpha Beta Pi (3, 4, President 4) ; Student Coun¬ cil (3) ; Silver G (3, 4) ; Chorus (3); “Fads and Frills” (2); Class Salutatorian (4). How can anyone forget the sweet disposition and the friendly smile that “Ruthie” possesses ? She is very pop¬ ula r and well liked among all her ac¬ quaintances, both boys and girls. Ruthie” is one of those people who can enjoy themselves in school and at the same time be an “A” student. In the future Ruth plans to go to Smith and we wish her all the luck in the world. JAMES WEIR CULLEN “J immy” “My true lore hath my heart and I have hers” Soccer Team (4). “Jimmy” seems like a quiet boy, but is a lot of fun when you know him. He hasn’t entered into many activities; most of his interest seems to be else¬ where. Who hasn’t seen “Jimmy” and the little girl” chatting in the cor¬ ridor or elsewhere. He plans to attend Parks Air School in Illinois, and we wish him a lot of luck. AGNES LEONA DAGILUS “Aggie” “llasketbaU ' s the world, and all the world ' s a basketball” Intramural Basketball (1, 2); Com¬ mercial Club (4) ; Girls’ Varsity Bas¬ ketball (3, 4); Baseball; Field Hockey (1, 2); Chorus. “Aggie” has been the Rock of Gi¬ braltar for the girls’ basketball team.

JOSEPH FREDERICK FORRESTALL “Frosty” “He sure no man was ever discontented with the world who did liis duty in it” If anyone is looking for “Frosty” he will probably find him in the wood¬ working department as he is interested in mechanics. He is a good-natured fellow and has a host of friends. We have wondered if he is as quiet as he seems. “Frosty’s” future is undecided but we wish him luck in any- career he may choose.

EMILY ANTOINETTE GLABACH “Shrimp” “A little girl am I, but not too small” Pro Merito; Commercial Club (4). For a little girl, our Emily has great ambitions.

Loads of patients, “Hillie.” FREDERICK FOSTER GRANT “Fred” My only books were women’s looks. And folly’s all they’ve taught me. “Fred” is generally found among the fairer sex. We believe the attraction lies in his wavy hair. Fie is well known and liked by the pupils, teachers and the principal, or at least he is given a lot of attention!

She is undecided as to her future, but we wish her lots of luck. 20 LEONARD WARREN HAMILTON “Hamie” “Argue, argue, early and late, if a line were crooked he’d argue it straight.” Most of us know this friendly but noisy boy. He always has some re¬ mark to break the silence of a class, and at any time has a good argument to prove his points of view. His out¬ side interests have kept him so busy that he has found no time for school activities. “Hamie” is undecided about his future but with his friendly way we know that he is sure to succeed. JEANNE LOUINE HARPER « QII “A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance” Class Basketball (1, 2. 3); Exponent Staff (2, 3); “Fads and Frills” (2).

His high school years have been filled with athletic activities, and we know that letters awarded to him were well eai li¬ ed. Besides his sports, he found time for class activities, and we feel sure that whatever his plans may be he will have no failures through lack of sports¬ manship and effort.

With his own sense of humor he ' s always handy for a good joke. We have come to know him as a good-na¬ tured fellow, ready to assist at any time; and although quiet at times he can take it like the rest of us. There’s no doubt that what the future plans for him he will meet like a “regular fella.” RUSSELL ROY JALBERT “Rudolph” “In the spirit of his youth Property Committee of “The Family Upstairs” (4); Archery Club (2); Science Club (4). Ever since “Rudolph” came to us he has made himself conspicuous by his quiet yet good-natured personality.

KENNETH DAVID JOHNSON “Ken” “Creation is great, and cannot be understood” “Ken” is one of the quieter boys in school. He has not taken part in any school activities but has, nevertheless, made many friends.

Francis and “Evry” can be seen to¬ gether almost any time one pleases, and many deep conversations are car¬ ried on between them. Archery has al¬ ways interested Francis, and a high scor e on bull ' s-eye lias been his reward. Whatever he undertakes cannot help but be successful, for he has the nec¬ essary ambition and executive ability. WILLIAM STANLEY KACZENSKI “Frisco” “Now let it work: mischief, thou art afoot, Take thou what course thou wilt” William is the lad who seeks the honor of collecting the largest variety of pink slips, and we wish him luck in this enterprise. His good-natured pranks have often delighted his friends, but the penalty has always been a pink slip or two. William is very much in the dark as to his future, but what¬ ever he does will be something excit¬ ing, you may be sure. SUZANNA JESSIE KAMIENSKI “Sue” “ am sure care’s an enemy to life” Hockey Team (3) ; “Chonita” (2) ; “Trial by Jury” (3) ; Art Club (2, 3, 4); Glee Club (1, 2, 4). Surely everyone has sampled Jessie’s tasty candy and other bits of confec¬ tion. Prospective buyers are always on hand after lunch, and Jessie never fails them. Although she was not a mem¬ ber of the varsity basketball team, she was an asset to every class team, and will be remembered as an ardent gym enthusiast. Whatever her plans for the future may be, we wish her the best of luck. EDMOND HENRY KARMILOWICZ “Karm” “Talking is one of the fine arts” Science Club (4) ; Dramatic Club (4) ; Pro Merito. “Karm” is the source of amusement in many a classroom, especially in Pub¬ lic Speaking.

ERNEST DARWIN KEMP “Ernie” “Say not the struggle nought availeth” Pro Merito; Year Book Staff; Com¬ mercial Club (3, 4); Student Council (3); Special Honors (4).

She played the part to perfec¬ tion and does likewise every day of her life—providing fun and humor for all those who come in contact with her. She plans to go in training next year, and we wish her great success in the future. WALTER KORZON “Tarzan” “You are wisely silent In your own worth and therefore ' twere a sin For others to be so” “Tarzan” is one of our silent men who is seldom seen and never heard.

There’s happiness ahead. Good luck, “Dutchie”! EVA ROSE KRAMER “Eve” “Her friends—they are many Her foes—are there any?” Pro Merito; Commercial Club (3, 4); Chorus (1, 2, 3). “Eve” is one of the happy-go-lucky members of our class, and we should be lost without her. She is especially noted for her giggling and is ever- ready to take part in any fun. She has been busy with her commercial clubs and Pro Merito but has found time for someone from Turners. The very best of good wishes are yours, “Eve.” DOROTHY MAY ' LA COY “She walks the waters like a thing of life, and seems to dare the elements of strife” No one knows Dorothy very well. Seldom heard, always listening, per¬ haps wisdom comes her way. Success is not always gained by talking. Sel¬ dom is she seen in activities, but it seems that she enjoys them. ALEX FRANK LAHOSKI “Slim” “Keep thy friend under thy own life ' s key” “Slim” has n ot been very active in sports, but has done quite a bit of work in the paint shop.

S. wishes her luck. RICHARD ALLEN LAMB “Dick” “He possessed a peculiar quality of pro¬ ducing an effect in everything he said or did” To those of us who know “Dick” we see him as a big, good-natured, non¬ chalant lad, with an ever-ready snappy story to brighten our dull existence. ARTHUR EDWARD LaPOINTE “Art” “High flights he had and wit at will. And so his tongue lay seldom still” Intramural Basketball (1, 2, 3, 4); Student Council (4) ; Printers’ Guild (3, 4). The real “Art” is hidden behind a , mask, blase and careless. “Art” can delight anyone when he chooses. Also when he chooses he can surprise his teachers with evidences of a fine in¬ tellect. Best of luck! GEORGE JOSEPH LAPSERITIS “Crawfish” “This bold, bad man” Football (2. 4); Basketball (2); In¬ tramural Basketball (1, 2, 3); Com¬ mercial Club (4). “Crawfish” is the big noise in his English Class, but he doesn’t give the girls a tumble, at least not the girls in G.

CHARLES HENRY LARABEE “Bud” “He that respects himself is safe from others He wears a coat of mail that none can pierce” Hockey (3, 4). In a quiet, efficient way he has been going about, acquiring from the school just what he wants, and it is safe to say that, unlike many of us, he knows exactly what he’s after. 23 DORIS ELIZABETH LaSHIER “Dotty” “Her heart is like a garden fair” Chorus (1); Commercial Club (4). “Dotty’s” happy disposition has brought her many friends during her high school years and her skill in com¬ mercial subjects is a good indication of her probability of success in the fu¬ ture.

VERNAM ALSON LaSHIER “V. A.” “A man passes for that he is worth” Printers’ Guild (4) ; Band (2, 3, 4) ; Orchestra (3, 4) ; Assembly Or¬ chestra (3, 4). We have had Yernam in our midst for four years and anyone who doesn’t know him would think he is quiet, but have you ever been in any of his classes? No? Then you can’t judge. Vernam is undecided about the future but a printer’s job would be nice. JUNE MARY LaVOIE “Toots” “A rosy, merry maiden she.” We have learned that the way to make June happy is to give her a smooth dance floor, a snappy band, and a wonderful dancer.

Next play around your end, Stud,” go to it. 35 HERBERT EMERSON WOOD “Porky” “lie says little but thinks much” Track Team (1, 3, 4). There are some things about a per¬ son that do not show in the outer appearance and such is the case of “Porky.” From observing his slow gait, you wouldn’t realize that he is a mem¬ ber of the track team in good standing.

TO MY CLASSMATES: Our four years are nearing an end, and we wonder where they have gone. On looking back, we soon realize that they have been spent in hard work as well as in the enjoyments we have experienced through the social and athletic phases of our education. At this.time, therefore, I would like to express my appreciation to you for the honors you have given me in elect¬ ing me to office so often. I have found pleasure in such duties as well as in my regular work and athletic interests. William Murdock MacLeod 43 Parents and Teachers: E have all been told so often Hitch your wagon to a star.” As a result of much pushing and pulling of the wagon by our teachers and parents, we have arrived at the star, or, at least, a milestone. This day is especially for you in order that we may show our appreciation for all you have done for us. It is with real pleasure and gratitude that I welcome you, in behalf of the Class of 193 5, to our Class Day Exercises. Colonial Education I N the colonial period there were few highly educated people. There were only a few who knew even the rudiments of reading, writing, and accounting. At this time education of the masses and of women had not been considered. Many of the women held in the greatest esteem of the colonies, such as Priscilla Alden and the wife of Roger Williams, could not even sign their names. However, the people, although un¬ educated themselves, seemed to realize the value of education. There were schools throughout the colonies. In New Netherlands the first public grammar school was founded. Also parochial schools were prevalent throughout the middle colonies. The church maintained these schools and determined the courses of study. The clergymen teachers taught only elementary subjects. These schools were the only ones in the colonies which were co-educational. Tutors were employed on the large plantations because the people did not want the state to interfere in any way. Those who were too poor to pay for tutors were edu¬ cated according to law. Although there were these schools outside New England, the credit of founding an educational system is given to New England, for nearly all the educational codes of the States are similar to the Massachusetts code, which was the first. Between 1635 and 1700 there were only four secondarv schools in the colonies—Plvmouth, Boston, New Haven, and Hartford. The two Massachusetts schools united under a code which New Haven and Hartford practically adopted when they united. So, in reality, Massachusetts built the foundation for modern high-school education. The first public secondary school was the Boston Public Latin School. It was founded to insure a learned ministry for the colonies and to prepare boys for Harvard College, which was then being planned. The term “public school” is thought of as the English use it. The school was not public in the modern sense of the word, but in that it was not conducted for individual gain and was partially supported and controlled by the town. On April 23rd, 1635, only five years after the arrival of the English in Boston, the school was founded. The master, Philemon Pormont, taught the group of 12 children in his own home in King’s Chapel Yard. The school was supported by the wealthier citizens of Bos¬ ton, then about 45 in number. This school would not have been founded so early but for the tireless efforts of the Reverends John Cotton and John Eliot. Cotton arrived in 1633, and within two years he influenced Boston to found this school. Eliot’s greatest desire was to see at least one secondary public school in every colony. This subject was ever uppermost in his mind. He even preached it from the pul¬ pit, and every action was influenced by this de¬ sire. For several years the school was held in the 44 home of Pormont, where only one room of the house was used. There was a fireplace in one end of the room, benches, and the master’s platform. At this time there was no standard for teach¬ ers, as there were not enough highly-educated men. Perhaps the best known of the teachers of the Boston Public Latin School is Ezekiel Cheever, 38 years a teacher in this school. He was considered the educational leader of the colonial period. For pay the teachers received a few pounds a year, and pasturage for a cow. These teachers are regarded as severe and hard working. They seemed to force knowledge into their pupils by the threat of severe punishment. Often there were five-foot whipping posts in and around the schools, and birch switches were used frequently. Pupils were admitted at the age of seven or eight and were graduated at fifteen or sixteen. The pupils were only the sons of well-to-do parents, a matter which fostered class distinc¬ tion. There was no provision for the secondary education of the masses. This condition was re¬ sponsible for the development of the grammar schools and later the American Academy. The curriculum for the pupils of the Boston Public Latin School was set by the college. These requirements, seeming severe today, were: “To understand fully; to be able to make and speak true Latin prose and verse; and to decline nouns and verbs in Greek.” Since the school was partially founded and controlled by the church, religion and a few classical subjects were required besides Greek and Latin. That school has much to be proud of. The Adams brothers and John Hancock were gradu¬ ated from there. Also Benjamin Franklin, Henry Ward Beecher, and the famous writers, Edward Everett Hale, and Ralph Waldo Emer¬ son, were educated there. The greatest thing America has given to the world is its system of secondary education. So the Boston Public Latin School fulfilled its pur¬ pose and did far more than its founders had even dreamed, for this school is the source from which the modern American high school has developed. , r „ Margaret Grossman Developments in Secondary Education W IJEX the Boston Latin School was found¬ ed, the education problem was growing more and more vital. Almost everyone was of the opinion that children should be educated enough to understand the duties of citizenship in a democracy, and the changes in industrial concern. However, on the question of who was responsible for this education, there were many points-of-view. Some felt that the church should see to it; others, that it was up to the parents, and still others, tiiat it should be under state and local control and taken care of by the taxes. Up to the Revolutionary War, the North made big steps forward in education. In 1642, Massa¬ chusetts passed a law that all parents must see to it that their children could read and under¬ stand the principles of religion and the capital laws of this country. Five years later, a law was passed that every town of 50 families must furnish a teacher of reading and writing, and that every town of 100 families must main¬ tain a free Latin grammar school to prepare children for college. At these first tax-supported schools, they had fine, able American teachers but very few, scanty subjects. The schools were all strongly religious, and the main learning was from catechisms. At the private schools, how¬ ever, the teachers were mainlv English, and they taught mostly mathematical subjects. At neither the free schools nor the private schools were girls allowed until about 1700. In the Middle Colonies the children’s educa¬ tion was left entirely to the church, while in the South the children’s education was left to the parents. The rich children either had private tutors, went to private schools, or were sent to England for schooling. For the average family there were the “old field schools,” where the tuition was partly paid by the parents. Also there were “pauper” schools for orphans and poor children. After the Revolution there was a great change in the schooling, due to political, economic, and social development. The laws previously made 45 about education were very lax. Instead of being controlled by the towns, as tbe laws stated, tbe schools were managed by districts. To get a position as teacher, one had to have great per¬ sonal influence with the governor. The equip¬ ment was very poor, although the introduction of slates into the schools was a great forward step. The people, realizing the poor condition of the schools, made more and better laws; they established a State Board Fund and educated the adults to realize the need of good education for their children. This led up to an important development in education, the American Academy. The first one, founded by Benjamin Franklin, represented the transition which took place in the Latin School toward a more practical curriculum. The Acad¬ emy was for the education of all classes, boys and girls, and aimed to prepare the students for life as well as for college. Mathematical subjects and English courses, as well as Latin and Greek, were taught. This type of school, a tuition school which stressed r ewards and certificates of merit, flourished until 1850. Horace Mann, who spent his life working for the betterment of the edu¬ cation of the masses, caused secondary schools to he made more universal, non-sectarian, and free. After 1850, the Free Public High School arose as the natural outcome of the Latin grammar school and the Academy. From the Latin school it took over the idea of state or local control, and from the academy the enriched curriculum with its extracurricular activities. The first, a good example of them all, was founded in Bos¬ ton and aimed to educate those not intending to go to college in subjects necessary to secure in¬ tellectual and happy homes later on. The school was strictly for boys, who had to pass a difficult examination for entrance. The first free, tax- paid high school for both boys and girls was established in Chicago in 1826. The idea of th e free high school spread rapidly, and by 1890 it was the dominant school in America. Since then there have been hut a few changes until the present. Women began to teach soon after the Civil War, and the scattered district schools were consolidated because of better trans¬ portation. The modern form of school building came into existence with the modern equipment, and subjects dealing with all phases of home, community, and social life were introduced. Thus there arose in the wilderness one of the best educational systems in the world, the education of all classes through the free public high school. IvUTII CkOSSMAN Americanization L IKE a highly-magnetized lodestone, America attracts the foreigner. Its magnetic field stretches to every corner of the earth. The for¬ eigner forsakes relatives, country, and familiar surroundings and conies to America, the land of opportunity. He realizes that no nation offers opportunity in the same degree that America does. He realizes that he can climb the ladder of success without any tradition to hamper him or any fear to overshadow him. America offers him wealth, education, and other elements of true happiness. She also offers him religious, political, and social freedom. Very few people would he willing to sacrifice their mother for a stepmother. In the same man¬ ner. the alien hesitates to leave his birthplace and seek a new home. For that reason most of the aliens who seek a future in America are poor and humble. They are so humble and dis¬ couraged that they sacrifice their cherished birth¬ places and seek happiness in a country unknown to them. The attraction of the “dollar” blinds most of the foreigners. Their scope is so limited that they think only this will bring everlasting happiness to them. Education does not enter their scope until it is too late. That is the reason why many of the foreigners, after being in America for twenty or thirty years, have not yet mastered the English language. It’s impossible to imagine the excitement of the alien as the coast line of Long Island as¬ cends from the Atlantic. He is happy and ex¬ cited to see this promised land. Michael Pupin, who was an alien, had this same inspiration. He was full of happiness and excitement as the boat neared the harbor. The scene that greeted Pupin 46 was fascinating and bewildering. To him the cities of Europe seemed like dwarfs in compari¬ son to the grand and unbelievable realities which greeted him in the harbor. The many people, boats, and buildings gave him courage and new inspiration. When lie neared this crowd, his in¬ spirations ceased, and a cold wave ran down his spine. lie realized that he was an immigrant, alone and exiled from his native land. The experience of Pupin coincides with that of every foreigner. He is alone in this vast world. He cannot receive the comforting and encouraging words of his parents when it ap¬ pears that he is losing courage. He cannot tell his troubles to fellow-men, for he does not know them. He is alone to fight agony, despair, and disappointment. The American ideals clash with his. He tries hard to hold on to European ideals while he absorbs some of the American ones. Again, he is alone to accomplish this task. The religious freedom offered by America bewilders him also. He is astonished to discover that this crowd does not understand his native tongue. He must adjust himself to a new language. By the help of books, fellow-men, and common sense, he begins this great task. It is an easy matter to learn the fundamental words of language, but to learn the grammar of it is a Herculean task. Such is a reflection of the misery and drudgery of the immigrant’s life. When Mareeus Eli Ravage came to America, he was, as he says, an upheaval of human soul, pulled up by the roots from the ancient, precious soil, cast abroad among Americans, withering for a space, then slowly finding nourishment in the new soil. The sadness of this adventure is be¬ yond our imagination to conceive. Instead of honoring and saluting a blue and white flag, he will have to honor a red, white, and blue flag. He will have to unroot ideals, patriotism, and love of country and in their places substitute a new plant. America is not the mother of a for¬ eigner, but she is his stepmother. Let us hope that he loves his stepmother as well as he loved his mother. According to Edward Bok, in the matter of education, America has fallen far short in what should be the strongest of all her institutions: the public school. Some American teachers neg¬ lect the fact that a foreigner does not under¬ stand the English language. The foreigner is left alone to learn the language. The factor of dislike of foreigners also enters the picture. A foreigner is a human being; he has a soul, body, and human blood. Therefore, why is there the dislike for foreigners? In Greenfield High School about 350 students are foreigners or belong in homes of foreign born. To the adult alien the evening school is a great institution. There he learns the correct funda¬ mentals of the English language. “I found the evening school both very beneficial educationally and very pleasant socially,” writes one alien who was a. member of it. In Greenfield the eve¬ ning school is composed mostly of Poles, one or two Greeks, two Italians, and one Russian. When Mary Antin came to America, she tried to Americanize herself. It was a difficult prob¬ lem to master because her parents were conserv¬ ative. They could not see and appreciate the American ideals and habits. She could not adopt the American ideals in fear that she might hurt her parents. All of the foreign-born children are facing that problem. The foreigners of the United States have pro¬ gressed by leaps and bounds. Most of the small business institutions are operated by foreigners. They have branched into every vocation, and their progress is admired by everyone. The thing that every foreigner owes to Amer¬ ica is opportunity. Here, he has all the tools of progress. He is willing to leave his small, unre¬ sourceful native land and find a peaceful, re¬ sourceful, and quiet life in the republic of America. Since the World War, serious effort has been used in aiding the foreign-born to Americanize himself. The foreigner showed his appreciation for this by deserting his native land and becom¬ ing a citizen of America. Many times I wonder whether the foreigner doesn’t make a better American than the Amer¬ ican himself. 47 Euripides Louis Metaxas Outstanding Trends of Education in Our Present Reconstruction Period T here are developing today in our second¬ ary schools numerous definite changes, one of which, the education of immigrants, has already been covered. To make your picture complete I shall now discuss other trends. During the past 300 years the educational system of our country has so broadened and ex¬ panded that from one Latin school, discussed by my predecessor, come today 28,000 secondary schools, and, in place of 12 scholars, 6,000,000 boys and girls are receiving their secondary work in the free public schools of America. The sur¬ roundings in which these pupils work are the results of architecture carefully planned to give them comfort and the incentive of ideal con¬ ditions for study. Of necessity the buildings have become larger, and they are maintained in good sanitary condition with well-regulated temperature and light. Additional equipment, workshops, sewing rooms, art studios, laborato¬ ries, and gymnasiums have been supplied to keep pace with the advancements in the field of ped¬ agogy. Perhaps one of the most noticeable changes is that in the point-of-view of the instructor. In¬ stead of a stern drillmaster he now takes his place as a companion and guide to the pupils’ efforts, so handling his subjects that the result may be a feeling of satisfaction to the individ¬ ual student. Special library work, projects, con¬ tracts, all common words in schools today, have developed from scientific pedagogy and psychol¬ ogy, which give the idea of teaching by the creat¬ ing of interest rather than by force. Too, the courses are not now considered as individual units but as parts making up a whole. Reading and art work are the chief ways of accomplish¬ ing cooperation between classes, another means of gaining the objective of present-day training —satisfaction. The variety of subjects now offered is a recent development in the efforts to fit the school to the individual. In this we see the recognition of the fact that we are not all alike. Clearly can be seen the reason for the necessity of variety: the children of all the people are being educated re¬ gardless of their race or ability, and a large number of the high school pupils are at school simply because they cannot find employment. The intellects and abilities of these different groups are most diversified; therefore, they must be treated differently. Certain subjects which have been found es¬ sential to a successful life in this world are re¬ quired in each of the various types of curricula, but to an increasingly large extent a student is allowed to elect those courses which will best fit him for his years after high school. Academic work which prepares for college is offered those who plan to continue in scholastic lines; a com¬ mercial course is organized in the best interests of those entering the business world upon grad¬ uation ; printing, wood-work, and domestic science are provided for those whose particular talents need direction in this line. By the estab¬ lishment of agricultural courses the rural schools are equipped to fulfill the chief interests of their students. The treatment of subject-matter is quite as varied as the subjects themselves. Because of type differences, the same work is more success¬ fully taken up at numerous speeds, some classes traveling at a fast rate; others, more slowly. In all types of classes increasing use is being made of visual education. Motion pictures and slides make for interest and present the topic more graphically than do continual lectures. It is said that our eyes beat our ears, and scientific tests have proved that the student who uses his eyes learns ten times as much ten times as fast. Would it not seem that this new method of teaching could well fulfill th e purpose of our schools? To further the aim of arousing interest, elabo¬ rate notebooks, trips to near-by places which per¬ tain to the subject studied, and many dramatic presentations are included in modern instruc¬ tion. Recognizing that its pupils are to live in this world, the high school takes upon itself as a part of its work the social development of indi¬ viduals. Constructive guidance is given them so that their moral growth may keep pace with 48 their bookish education. By a large number of school organizations the pupils receive help with these problems. As members of one or more of the clubs offered, their interests are intelligently directed and the spirit of group cooperation strengthened. Science, music, languages, art, commerce, and nature are followed by means of clubs, as well as service problems. The activities connected with these give a wholesome founda¬ tion upon which the individual may build his life work or his recreation. The field of vocational guidance is becoming of increasing importance in the school systems of today. Its purpose is to help the student to discover where his own abilities lie and to guide him in his preparations for a life work. As early as the junior high school the work begins so that the pupil may feel that an understand¬ ing helper is ready to guide his way through the important choices and decisions arising in the adolescent period. Including even more than the guidance for a vocation, this department care¬ fully directs the interests of its pupils into worth¬ while fields. In this way the mischievous boy with a desire for burning and explosions may do constructive work in the scientific field. The guidance is accomplished as a result of intelli¬ gence tests and by individual conferences. Much faith is placed by our leaders upon the latter method, talks with the student himself about his own individual problem, a way which makes for the best understanding between the instructor and his pupil. All these things come to us as a result of the willing sacrifice and money contributions of townspeople and parents for the continuance of free education in America. From the past we may see to some degree into the future. Then the high school may include at least 40 acres of grounds, providing for the develop¬ ment of shrubbery, gardens, athletic fields, and amphitheaters. Far back, invisible from the road, sits the building itself, much larger than that of the present day and giving sufficient room for a broad interpretation of subjects. The large grounds will take care of the adult education problem, the adults spending much of their leis¬ ure time at the school taking advantage of special courses offered for them. Each evening will find the townspeople gathered here for the entertain¬ ment—a program of lectures, demonstrations, dramatic presentations, or concerts. As for our present-day aim of individual attention, it will continue and enlarge in everything connected with the school. Thus Ave see a greater, more effective system of education growing up in our country, one Avhicli may do justice to our past development and bring glory to the future of America. Classmates: V aledictoru r T’HE time has come for parting, that time at which each of us goes out into the world to take up the responsibility associated with the voca¬ tions we have selected. In the same manner as in dry areas a great stream of water is brought and divided so that its benefits may be far reaching, so we have been led forward together through the steps of education and now are about to be separated that the service from our knowledge may more enrich the world. Often, to our loss, the lasting and momentary influences on our lives now become confused within us. However, it is with Spirit that we face future days, filled with opportunities. May we all be brought soon to realize that it isn’t life which matters; it’s the courage you put into it.’’ Grace Elizabeth Blanchard 49 Time: 1974 Class History Place: Home Sweet Home Characters: Headmaster of the Little Sweet Academy and his wife, teacher of Advanced Mathematics and Latin. The headmaster and his wife have just re¬ turned from chaperoning a dance at the academy. Latin Teacher : Thank you for a very enjoyable evening, Mr. Sweet. Didn’t the decorations look nice? And did you note how gentlemanly Junior Deneault brought me the refreshments? Headmaster : He probably wanted his Latin mark raised, but, speaking of Deneault, don’t let me forget to take our old G. II. S. Year Book to school tomorrow. His twin sister, Janet Parker Deneault, wants to see it. L. T.: Here’s the book. You know I haven’t looked at it in years. Remember the day we entered G. H. S. as Freshmen? II. M.: I remember we had a whole extra week of vacation and no cheering competition or track meet at the Fair because of in¬ fantile paralysis. L. T.: Let’s see! Eugene Deneault was presi¬ dent of our class; Deane Ellis and Helen Raymond were vice presidents; Emily Coolidge was secretary and Forrest Sweet was treasurer. I must say we showed remarkable sense in electing those officers. II. M.: Oh, yes, what little sense our class had was always good. You know quality rather than quantity! What about the Freshmen “hop?” I seem to recall something about the re¬ freshments and the strict warning of my mother to be home early. L. T.: Oh, it was a “grand” party, although you boys weren’t particularly gallant— I mean most of you weren’t! Kemem¬ ber, though, how “Franny” Cadran es¬ corted under an umbrella Emily Cool¬ idge, with her dress pinned up to her knees so she wouldn’t get it wet? II. M.: I suppose spring and our promotion to the Sophomore class soon followed. L. T.: Exactly, and we began to feel a little less strongly the superiority of the upper classmen. H. M.: That year the mantle of leadership fell upon “Buster” MacLeod. Emily Cool¬ idge and “Dick” Harris were vice presidents. Frank Dalton was entrusted with the class bank account, and you did the recording. L. T.: Don’t forget our social activities. We gave those Freshmen the biggest and best “hop” the school had ever wit¬ nessed. H. M.: Alfred Bonneville and “Buster” Mac¬ Leod played football, while “Dick” Harris was our only shining light as far as basketball was concerned. L. T.: It seems to me that I vaguely remember something about his assembly speeches. II. M.: Those were delivered after he had be¬ come a Senior and was elected president of the Student Council. As a younger pupil he was always very modest. L. T.: Arthur Staheleck and “Jimmy” Burns upheld the class honors in baseball, and, almost before we knew it, we were Juniors. H. M.: Now we elected “Buster” Sweet, presi¬ dent ; Helen Raymond and Frank Dal¬ ton, vice presidents; “Dutchie” Kramer, 50 secretary, and “Buster’’MacLeod, treas¬ urer. L. T.: Also we won the cheering cup at the Fair and managed to get honors in track with the aid of “Buster” MacLeod and Harrison Sanders. H. M.: It mentions here that all our athletic teams put up strong competition with the honors well divided. L. T.: There’s something about the operettas. Remember Jessie Machaiek played the lead in “Chonita,” whereas “Eddie” Blake was the fickle bridegroom in “Trial By Jury”? H. M.: That year we organized a Junior Coun¬ cil under the leadership of Eugene Den- eault, and conducted a very successful card party, which helped quite a bit towards our Year Book fund. L. T.: Our Senior year seemed to go before it started. “Buster” MacLeod was presi¬ dent. II. M.: Frank Dalton was elected vice presi¬ dent. He was aided by Helen Raymond as the other vice president; “Dutchie” Kramer was secretary, and Eugene Deneault was treasurer. L. T.: When Fair time rolled around again, “Dutchie” Kramer, Esther Allen, “Jerry” Levitch, “Dune” Chamberlin, and Stephen Jablonski were our cheer leaders. We lost the cheering cup, but we could meet with “Triumph and Disaster.” II. M.: “And treat those two imposters just the same.” L. T.: You bet. Right after the Fair, football started. Those who played from our class were “Dick” Harris, “Jimmy” Burns, and “Billy” Griswold. II. M.: There was also Ostroski, Wondolski, Brady, and we musn’t forget “Buster” MacLeod, or the football dance which we gave in honor of the team. L. T.: We skipped something—the Hallowe’en Dance! Everybody attending had a good time, especially “Dutchie” Kramer and her “redhead.” Of course, no Sen¬ ior dance could have been complete without our president and his fair Marion. H. M.: Here’s something about the Senior play, “The Family Upstairs.” You and “Franny” Cadran played the leads. L. T.: Others taking part were Ruth Koehler, Carl White, “Jerry” Levitch, Evelyn Ballou, Jeanne Kennedy, “Eddie” Blake, and Eileen Burns. II. M.: Incidently Evelyn Ballou made a great 12-year-old; all she had to do was act natural. L. T.: Our “Exponent” was well under way by then. Let’s see! Eleanor Kelleher was editor-in-chief, and Deneault was business manager. II. M.: Remember our feature writer, Jeanne Kennedy, always had a good ear for gossip within G. II. S., but her heart seemed to skip from Princeton to Dart¬ mouth. L. T.: Also it often wandered around by Deer¬ field Academy instead of applying the geometry rule and taking the straight- est and shortest route between the said places. Let’s get back to sports. Under the captaincy of “Dick” Harris our basket¬ ball team won 18 of its 23 games. II. M.: Staheleek and “Joe” Lukow also repre¬ sented our class as far as that sport was concerned. L. T.: The girls had a good team, too. “Nin” Whelton was captain, and Delma Hall, “Betty” Ranger, and Agnes Dagilus were the stars from the Class of ’35. II. M.: Then there was the Christmas Dance, the “T” dances, the second card party and our innumerable musical organiza¬ tions. 51 L. T.: Evelyn Ballou was elected drum major of the band. Remember how they trav¬ eled to Quincy to take part in the state competition ? II. M.: We couldn’t forget the Syncopators or “Nuts” Maloy, the craziest and best drummer this side of Bernardston. L. T.: Other members of our class helped to make our Archery, Golf, and Tennis teams successful. II. M.: Our students were going strong, too. Grace Blanchard was announced as Valedictorian, whereas Ruth and “Peg” Crossman were the Salutatorians. L. T.: Think of the honors there would have been in the Crossman family if the twins had been quintuplets! II. M.: The baseball men worked bard our Sen¬ ior year. Those playing from our class were “Jimmy” Burns, Louis DeMeo, “Dick” Harris, “Nuts” Maloy, “Ed” Margola, and Arthur Staheleck. Then came the “exams,” the Banquet, the Commencement Dance, Class Day, and Graduation. L. T.: Like that old Latin phrase, “Consule planco,” our high school days were cer¬ tainly the good old times. H. M.: I know, but it’s getting late, and the “present time” won’t be so good unless we get a little sleep. Forrest Hamilton Sweet Helen Louise Raymond HlSTOR f CLUbS 1 52 Prophecy of the Class of 1935 Time: “Your time is my time.” Place: Hollywood, California. M. G. M. Studios (My Goodness Ma) Character : Baby Leroy Maloy Shirley Temple Ballou (In their second childhood) (Alarm clock buzzes) Wake up together. Baby Leroy Maloy —(crying)—Where’s my nurses, my hairdresser, and my dieti¬ tian? ? ? Shirley Temple Ballou —Quit blabbing. Where are they anyway ? B. L. M. Well, Olive Duffney, one of my nurses, left to be a fan dancer. Another one, Blanche Popko, decided to be stenog¬ rapher for “Sheik” Rhodes who is president of the “Northway’s News,” Gill’s home-owned independent news¬ paper. “Ernie” Kemp, my hairdress¬ er, and “Kaye” Corliss, the dietitian, opened a school for the Feeble-Minded. Their first pupil was Leonard Hamil¬ ton. That’s all the gratitude you get for giving your classmates a job. Take me for instance. I gave “Ed” Maher a ten-cent raise, and he spent it all down at “J. C.’s” on the nickel machine. Eva Kramer, my toe-nail polisher, left to care for the homeless pigeons on the corner. The pigeons were: Stool pigeon, Margaret Whalen; Roman pig¬ eon, Harry Archer; dove-tail pigeon, Emily Rose Coolidge. A lot of our old- S. T. B. Remind me - “spaghetti.” B. L. M. Pals were in the new picture, “Murder While Walter Korzon Sleeps.” Gor¬ don Walsh’s High Hatters furnished low-down rhythm for this picture. Among the musicians were the first trumpeter, Kenneth Finn; second trumpeter, “Dan” Sal way. Martin Rupert Smith was able to “horn” in, too. Percussionist was “Eddie” Blake, (he blew back the curtains). “Ed” Sullivan was chief trombonist, who played so hot that he melted four trombones. Saxophonist Lenora Thom¬ as played “Ill-Wind Is Blowing Me No Good” because Harold Babino’s feet ache. First violinist was Grace Blanchard. “Tubby” Etliier fiddled around too. “Spaghetti.” S. T. B. At Louis DeMeo’s banquet, “Dinner at Seven,” “Johnnie” Degrano got around to serve the spaghetti at ten. Those that died were Rita Gaimari, Eleanor Colucci, Albertina De Maria, and Mary Rucci. It was for the bene¬ fit of Hollywood’s Mussolini, “Bussie” Ruggeri. B. L. M. I see one of our schoolmates, “Pewee” Stalieleck, is starring in the new pic¬ ture, “Girl Habit.” The climax comes when Esther Richardson is kidnapped, and the kidnappers are her brother, Kenneth Richardson, Harry Wandel- oski, and Walter Sokolosky. They take her to the villain’s (Euripides Metax- as) shack. “Pewee” rides Hugh Sor¬ enson’s faithful horse to the rescue. S. T. B. That was a swell hot dog roast that Duncan Chamberlin gave last Friday. The guests were Kathryn Looney, Karl Murphy, Eileen Grogan, and Eileen P. Jolley. (Chamberlin sure had plenty to eat.) The roast was in honor of the picture, “The Return of the Terror,” who was none other than Paul Allen Carroll. S. T. B. B. L. M. 53 P . L. M. Shirley, you should listen to the radio program, “The Call of the Wild,” starring Harold Call, sponsored by the Catherine Bellow’s Fireplace Blowers. Thomas Broughan will sing “The Lit¬ tle Shantie on Ferrante Avenue.” Thomas will be accompanied on the harmonica by Albert “Toothless” Cichanowicz. The announcer is Her¬ bert Wood. He “burns” while Bel¬ lows “blows.” Ida Brooks squelched the whole “works.” S. T. B. Did you hear about Catherine Lynch coming to Hollywood to sell baby car¬ riages? She’s surely out pushing her goods. Also did you hear about Lloyd Mallory dying? B. L. M. Well, peace to his ashes . . . S. T. B. Oh, did he go there? B. L. M. Yea, 123% of the class went there. I had more fun yesterday. I went to court, and you can’t imagine who was the judge. None other than Roger Conant, the old dope. The case was between Richard Harris and James J. Burns, the third, who were fighting over the inheritance of Turnbull’s Ice Cream factory, and the “Kid” Har¬ ris’s lawyer was Deane Ellis whereas Burns’s lawyer was Fred Dunn. The case was held over until “Bill” Lawor, a farmer, could get there from Green¬ field. S. T. B. It was a big day in San Francisco yesterday because “Shyster” Lukow arrived there in a row boat after hav¬ ing rowed from Poland. He was minus tlie crown jewels but had a stowaway, Ruth Koehler. Poor “Shy” rowing her a cross the ocean! B. L. M. But that wasn’t half the time that I had at the airport seeing Oakleigh Wasner returning from the moon. Fred Wilcox was mechanic. His mot¬ to was “Where Essex motors go, I go.” On board was Walter Micuta, Richard Lamb, and Stanley Duda. This insane but brave little group, under the watchful eye of Oakleigh, were greet¬ ed by acting mayor, “Fifi” Griswold, who presented them with World En¬ emy No. 1, “Joe” Andrus, and wished they’d take him back to the moon. Instead “Joe” took the dirigible. Charles Bernstein sold hamburgers at the event. His assistant, Harold Cash, neither had cash nor could get cash, but he was always cashing in. Have you been doing any shopping lately, kid? ? ? S. T. B. To be sure, to be sure. The last time I was shopping I stopped at Stella Breze- zinski’s store which has the latest Paris models. Ernest Thacker, the window decorator, was advertising James P. Waterman’s beds. The demonstrator was Janice Knapp. The slogan read “Waterman assures you of a nice Knapp.” Eileen Burns was floorwalker. The lingerie department was managed by “Frannie” Cadran. Michel Behilo was a dress salesman. He left the in¬ side store work to Cadran. “Red” Trudeau was on the Notion Counter, and every once in a while he got a notion to visit Helen Pierog on Charles Simondiski’s Swedish pastry counter. B. L. M. Speaking of pastry I ate in Betty Bar¬ ker’s sloppy restaurant, and the cooks were Gerard and Yvette Ferry fea¬ turing William Micuta’s muskrat stew. Esther Allen flitted around the kitchen wiping the cook’s utensils. While there I saw Donald Choiniere, Doris LaShier, Richard Moody, Lena Schultz, Janice Wedge, and Ruth Carey eating Jeannette Bousquet’s bulletproof bis¬ cuits. Doris Sumner, “Buster” Sweet, and Walter Swider got together with Choiniere and drank “Sumner’s Sweet Swider.” Pauline Bora and Wanda Powers were hostesses. Wanda wan¬ dered around while Pauline bored people. 54 S. T. B. Just to sIioav you what Hollywood will do to people Janet Parker and Eugene Deneault had sextuplets. Their names were Izzie, the first; Izzie, 2nd; Izzie, 3rd; Izzie, 4th ; Izzie, 5th; and Izzie, the 6th. In other words their names were Izzie. They were christened by Rev. Everett Ernest Brown who was assisted by Paul Bartak who held the champagne. Benjamin P. Collins did the odd jobs. The guests, including the grandparents, were Virginia Bel¬ ton and John Brady, Cary Hold and Margaret Sargent. The friends were Charles Larabee and Jennie Scepanski. How these family trees grow together! The odd branch and the sap were there —“Joe” Ostroski and Eleanor Steb- bins. You know how he likes his green¬ wood. . . . B. L. M. Did I do the town last night? I went around to Joseph and Carl White’s theater—-you know it’s just a little hole in the wall down by John Stone’s gravel pit—and saw “What A Girl” starring “Pish-Pish” Sears. Her lead¬ ing man was “Mike” Mooney. The director was “Alex” Wondoloski. The characters in the show were Cedric Trudeau as the handsome general of Co. L with Walter Leukhardt as the villain. However, the show went on when George Lapseritis saved the day by capturing the villain. Acting as flower girl was “Bob” Ashley. Besides the play there was a baseball comedy, “Gerard’s Great Dames” played John Metelica’s “Underworlders. ” Some of the outstanding players of the “Un¬ derworlders” were shortstop, Stanley Tusinski, and Gerald Levitch, who thought he was so handsome that he’d take up catching. “Tony” Oweichik patroled the outfield. During the course of the comedy “Ed” Margola made seven errors. He looked like a big leaguer. The two comedians were Karmilowicz and Poulos. Metelica paid his men big salaries, but took it away from them with the dice. Say, where do you live now! S. T. B. I lived- B. L. M. Remind me of circus- S. T. B. On Manchester Avenue. I used to live up with the 400, Russell Jalbert and Harold Myers, but I depreciated to the 398 class when I moved down near Russell Spat, Ralph Bassett, and “Fred” Grant. Do we live in some swell joint built by those famous con¬ tractors, “Joe” Forrestall and “Joe” Birch ? I have even got a bodyguard, “Horse-Face” Dalton—his nose is fit¬ ted for smelling kidnappers. My chauf¬ feur is Kenneth Johnson. James Quin¬ lan is the footman with John Wayne- lovich as my fiddler six—the other five died yesterday. Ruth Strange is my cook. She surely cooked some strange things. My chambermaid was Ruth Chapin. Alfred Bonneville is the bouncing butler. CIRCUS . . . B. L. M. Ehhlih, I went to the circus, and, as I was tripping along down the midway, I ran into Virginia Whelton—the snake charmer. In the side show was the lady who lived in the cage of mir¬ rors, Gladys Wisnewski. Then I found Bernard Beagarie eating fire. Kath¬ leen Scanned, the fire-blower’s assist¬ ant, blew out the fires. The next booth on the left was the Crossman Sisters doing a hula-hula dance accompanied by the one-man band, Alex Lahoski. Frank Yourga sure packed them in. He was the “guy” who gave them a sales talk. Last but not least was “Millie-Millie, ” the high diver — in other words Mildred Whitney with “Kate” Farrell as elephant trainer. Vernam LaShier, Whelton’s assistant snake charmer, charmed the snakes on his clarinet. Morton Clark was the handsome “Man On the Flying Trap¬ eze.” He was assisted by two dainty little girls, Helen Steffins and Doro¬ thy Hueftline. Louise Whitcomb was 55 shot out of the cannon into the wait¬ ing arms of “Frenchy” Yiens. By the way, have you been back to our old home town ? S. T. B. 1 was back there a few months ago, and do you know what? B. L. M. Uh-ha uh-ha! ! Spill the beans! ! S. T. B. Lois Spear was modeling dresses at Trumble’s store, which was formerly Wilson’s. Ruth Baker is peddling Baker’s chocolate. You know what? Greenfield has a broadcasting station managed by William Merriott. “Jof- fie” Giard, the golden-voiced Romeo, sings nightly as does “Stud” Burr. Jeanne Harper’s “Irish Minstrels” is another feature of our home town. “Bussie” MacLeod kills six birds with one stone by telling bedtime stories over the air. He could never get his tribe together at the same time. The Palmolive Soap Program is planned by Baxter Noyes. He advertises “I use Palmolive Soap to keep my school girl complexion.” Other “soft soap- ers” on the program were Agnes Cas¬ ey, Frances Devino, Marcia Lala, and Dorothy Witkos. The comedians were “Art” Lapointe and “Black Sam” Maniatty. The sponsors were “Rosy- clieeks” “Jimmy” Smith and “Rosy- cheeks” Ralph Foster. B. L. M. You sure saw plenty while you were there, but did you know that “Jimmy” Cullen had taken “Stubby” New¬ comb’s place? “Teardrops” Mayliam, “Marita” Moylan, and “Red” Sis- wick are so hard up that they have to call after their “boy” friends in “Marita’s” car. Albert Letourneau and Edward Kovalski stole the horse bath on the common to wash golf balls down at the Middle Meadows. Who should be fire chief but Roger Sitter- lv ? Hose No. 1 was taken care of by William Kaczenski and Walter John¬ son. The purchasing agent was Arthur Gibson. He went into Delma Hall’s Stocking Store to buy the hose. That night I went to the wrestling match at good old Dagilus Hall which used to be Washington Hall. You know how the West-end used to get a monopoly on things. Headlining the evening’s events was “Wildman” Danforth pit¬ ted against “Tornado” Darling. Jo¬ seph Deveney, “the handsome Irish whip artist,” and Warren Peters, the dusky flash, was the following bo.ut. “Pinhead” Thayer and “Gangster” Mushovic completed the men’s bout. Referee was Harrison Sanders. (He always was quite a runner.) The spe¬ cial bout of the evening was a hair¬ pulling “battle royal” between Verna Parent and Mary Mooney versus Ra¬ chel Schrader and Barbara Thurlow with Norman Whitcomb, Jr., as referee. S. T. B. 1 just remembered hearing that Eliza¬ beth Berry succeeded in becoming principal of Greenfield High School with Charles Novak as Dean of Girls. Amelia Zielinski is the new “gym” teacher. The other one was getting sort of gray-haired. Edna Lenihan is running the school bus as she always did! ! ! June LaVoie is in charge of pinkslips session. She never could get there until two o’clock anyway. A statue of Eleanor Kelleher was erected on the common. You know she erected the elaborate rest-rooms there. Those to christen the statue were “Tommy” Bergeron and “Frankie” Lynde. Bet¬ ty Ranger has opened a beauty parlor. Her motto is “Get a permanent here, and we will burn every hair off your head.” The burners were Doris Metz- ler and Stella Parda. Betty also spe¬ cialized in face lifting. Those that had their faces lifted were: Helen Bednar- ski, Jennie Zachlowski, Dorothy Lacoy, and Jessie Maehaiek. Brownell and Burnett Company, sun-tan experts, had as their motto, “Let us tan you before your old man does.” B. L. M. Francis Juchnicki now has a girls’ school. Jeanne Kennedy was made a member of the faculty because of her connections w i t h Dartmouth and Princeton. “Dutchie” Kramer, the dancing teacher, had a relapse. All of her “boy” friends danced her off her feet. Louise Metcalf is the art teacher in Francis’s school. You remember some of the pictures she drew when we were in school. At Wanda Sadlowski’s theater (everybody wondered where it was) they had a Movie Queen Contest. Sponsoring this contest was Helen Ray¬ mond, a noted Hollywood fashion plate. Those entering the contest were “Betty” Mason, Jessie Kamienski, Ida Duncan, and Hildred Goyette, but it was won by none other than Edith Hall. If she sells seven pianos and seven hundred cans of piano polish, she can go to Hollywood. While stop¬ ping at the Weldon Hotel, the place of Wesley Felton’s home-cooked, home- chokeable food, I saw employed there Frederieka Willemina Schotte and Mary Sledzik. They were the duster- uppers. Ruth Mayer lived there, and she went riding on a mare every day. Ann Godleske worked in the kitchen. They called her “Dirt-dishing Annie.” Stephen Jablonski was head-waiter with such noble assistants as Marjorie Fiske and Margaret Gass. Anna Man- iatty sold magazines in the lobby. Mar¬ tha Macaulay and Esther Siano were hired to tighten up the tables. Emily Glabach was hired as house detective to watch the silverware at the high school banquets. S. T. B. You have done enough blowing for one day so let’s go to sleep. Evelyn Jeannette Ballou Forrest Alvin Maloy 57 Ivu Ode Tune: The Palisades of New York University IS All hail thee in thy twining glory— Oh ivy, sacred plant of old. Who fails to know the ancient story— The tale of thee which oft is told? Thy verdant leaves in all their splendor The staff of Bacchus did entwine; And lasting power did they render To Bacchus, god of wine. Oh ivy, through the countless ages, Thy leaves with laurel have entwined To crown the heads of poets and sages, And evermore their faith to bind. So now we gather here to plant thee, Our symbol of achievement won. To thee, oh ivy, in thy glory, Our songs of praise are sung. Jeanne Edith Kennedy 58 Class Song Tune: Alma Mater of Cornell, Here at last we stand together With the goal in view; Tho’ our hearts are filled with pleasure Sorrows mingle, too, For the time has come for parting, Spreading out life’s ways, Leaving memories behind us Of our happy days. We have learned to love our high school With its theme of right, Teaching us the ways of honor, Leading us to light. Thus to Her we must be loyal As we forge along. Alma Mater, we salute thee With this parting song! Thro’ these four long years we’ve struggled; Wrought our friendships strong. Shall we break these ties forever With this parting song? As the future looms before us, We must onward strive Keeping always mem’ries of this, Class of Thirty-five.” William Hampton Merriott 59 } ft I i A iff I ■ VJ ' : | I B fa wk Hp X J. m W « i il Y i Band Mr. William S.
