The Hamiltonian 17 were members of the refreshment and orchestra committees. Marjorie Peters acted as chairman of the re- freshment committee, and Wallace Knowlton chairman of the orchestra committee. Barbara Maxwell and her commit- tee consisting of Anne Whittier, Jeanne Hipson, Ellen Donlon, and Ruth Cogswell deserve a great deal of praise for the splendid manner in which they took care of the invita- tions. John Mullins and Howard Wetson took charge of the checking for the evening, and Earl Cummings checked for refreshments. Shortly after the matrons were ushered in, the Junior class, led by their class officers, promenaded a- round the hall before a good sized gathering of onlookers. About 12:30 the dancers enjoyed themselves in at- tempting to get the balloons which were lowered from the ceiling. — Wm. Moore, ’33 Boys’ Athletics FOOTBALL W HEN our new coach, Mr. Walton gave the word for practice, many boys responded to the call, but gradually they dropped out, until it seemed as if we would not be satisfac- torily represented in Football. How- ever, with the exception of two neces- sary substitutes, eleven men started and finished four quarters in every game. The first game was a surprise to the people of Hamilton. Our team held Swampscott High to the close score of 7-6 ; although out-weighed perhaps by 15 pounds to a man. Our next important game was Ips- wich which we lost 19-6. Every team must have rally day and the boys had theirs when they furnished opposition to an eleven from “Saint Mary’s” of Saugus, which proved to be an unknown school. We lost the assistance of our caji- tain in the Rockport game due to in- eligibility, yet we won this game 7-6. The team members enjoyed a trip to Boston to view the Harvard-Brown game. Although we shall lose six regulars through graduation, things look promising for next year.

J6 The Hamiltonian while Bobby Burns, college chum for Harry, unexpectedly came to stay at the Inn seeking refuge from Mrs. Greene and his father who were planning a match between Mitzi and himself. In order to escape Bobby, Miczi planned a disguise as an Eng- lish lord, and unknown to her, Bobby, for the same reason, disguised as a grass wioow from Washington. In their comouilage, they fell in love. Booby having learned of Harry’s financial distress, wished to aid him. In order to bribe Philip Turvy, he posed as the mother of a baby he had stolen from a nearby carriage, and accused Turvy of being the father of the child. Thus hie received the nec- essary money to give to Harry and Ruth to cover the mortgage. U. Needarn Tew, big cracker and cheeze man from the East, fell in love with Beryl Berrington, proprietor of “La Petite Beauty Shop,” and created many interesting situations. Mrs. Bradley Greene and Bobby caused a great deal of enjoyment while remorsing over the loss of Top- sy Turvy, Bobby’s Eighth Wonder of the World. Susie Snubbins and Abner Wbiffle- tree were the instigators of many hi- larious predicaments throughout the entire show. Mimi, the cute French maid, played her part e.xceedingly well. The surprise ending offered by C. M. Cann changed the conditions con- siderably, when it was revealed that he was the brother of the real owner of the Maple Tree Inn, and as a wed- ding gift, he presented Ruth and Har- ry with it. A great deal of time was spent in training for the presentation of the play; both hard work and fun went into it. We often wondered whether Mrs. Boyd more enjoyed praising or scolding us. At any rate she gave us our full share of each, and as a re- sult turned out some pretty fine act- ing. Though rehearsals cut into scholastic ranks, not one would want to have missed being in the play — one of our pleasantest high school activi- ties. JUNIOR PROMENADE O N Friday evening May 17th, the Junior Promenade of Hamilton High School was held. It proved to be a social as well as a financial success. Roland Russell’s Ramblers played for dancing from 8:30 p.m. until 1:00 a.rn. At 9:00 the matrons, Mrs. Wal- ter Fowler, Mrs. Harry Wetson, and Miss Abbie Moynihan were ushered into t’ne beautifully decorated hall. The color scheme used in decorating was green and silver. A great deal of credit is due Mrs. Boyd and her capable assistants for their splendid work in decorating. Louise Moulton was appointed chairman of the decorating com- mittee which consisted of Edwina Alexander, Harry Wetson, Walter Fowler, Edward Beliveau, Rich- ard Peale, and Dorothy Fletcher. However the entire class freely vol- unteered all available study periods, as well as many hours after school, to assist in the decorating. It was this cooperation among all members of the clas that made the entire prom- enade such a success. Wallace Knowlton, Barbara Ham, Marjorie Peters, and William Moore
