One look at those eyes, and you will see why they capture so many hearts of the opposite sex. Her good nature, cheerfulness, willingness to help others indicate charm and per- sonality. ' . 1 Anne has taken frequent visits to New York the last few years. We Wonder why? Did you ever see the printing in Room 6 and wonder who did it? Well, it was none other than Nona. Anne tells us that she is going to New York after graduation, but we are certain that in the midst of all her good times she will not forget us. The best wishes of the class go with you.

In three years we haven't discovered whether it's his eyes, voice, or hair that make the girls like him-probably it's all three blended into his pleasant self. We do know, however, that the fellows like him because he is such a good scout. Bob is quite musical, and altho very few know the name of the instrument he plays, they do realize that the sound he produces on it is very good. Here's tootin' for you, Bob!

When she is with a little group, including Eunice, the fun begins, but why tell you that, for I'm sure that you, sometime or other, have been included in that joyous group. Ruth joined the Rifle Club when it was first organized and intends to be an alumna member. Do you blame her? No! For she is one of our highest scorers and has been a great asset to the team. Ruth is planning to go into training. We know that she will be an efficient nurse and a joy-bringer to her patients. Au revoir, Ruthie! Slide Rule, 121: Rifle Club, 131, 141. ' TI-IE BLUE AND WHITE GORDON C. ALLEN 16 years Brown Possessed of an irresistible leaning toward learnin', this youthful six-footer is a sponge when it comes to assimiliating worthwhile knowledge. He is aifablc but rather quiet and con- servative among his many friends at Hopeg in other words, his silence is golden, but when he speaks he means what he says. A veteran in the field of debate. As for his musical excellence. any other orchestra member may testify. Gordon is a real he-man but he can't help it if a few fair femmes are on his trail now and then. With a disposition that is like the skin you love to touch, and with scholastic attainments that are very much admired, he will soar to untold heights.

FRANCES BAKER HFRANNIEU 17 years Simmons Although you all haven't had the pleasure of Frannie's acquaintance, I'm sure you all know her. You ought to see Fran wield a tennis racquet if you want form and speed! She can give all of us a hard fight when it comes to swimming, too. Frances has outside activities which keep her rather busy but we must share her with others. She has heartily joined in with club ac- tivities and we know she is an asset to any group. We already have visions of Frannie winning honors at Simmons next yearg so Frannie you know, now, what you've got to line up to! May you remember us on your journey to success.

EVELYN BERMAN HBOBIEH 17 years Boston College of Physical Culture Ah, a fair damsel in a yellow Ford! Who is it? Bobie? Bobie is quite an athlete and one of the mainstays of the baseball, basket- ball, volley ball, hockey and swimming teams. Bobie has quite a personality and may always be found with a group of admirers around her. Bobie also wields a wicked bow and sings a mean HG. Bobie is going to become a gym teacher and some day we shall hear of Miss Berman, author of a new movement for athletics. Bobie also has a passionate desire for golf. Someday we will hear that she beat Bobbie J ones' record. Bobie vs. Bobbie. Around the bases, Bobie, but don't forget to come back home to Hope.

THE BLUE AND WHITE IRVING JOSEPH BLAIS 18 years Business I-Iere's the quiet lad from Seekonk. Joe is another of those de- pendable' people whom teachers and pupils alike are glad to know. He has the happy faculty of getting along with people to which we attribute his success as a banker. He always has a cheery smile, and we find that he can face misfortunes with a calm dignity that so few high-school pupils can attain. Joe is no mean me- chanic, although he claims that some of his repair work has not been particularly successful. Joe's going into business when he leaves Hope, and we wish him all the breaks of the game!

BLANCHARD 18 years Brown A nine-letter word for an all-round good fellow. Yes, that's it-B-L-A-N-C-H-A-R-D. Here's a snack of pulchritude that is guaranteed to strengthen the strongest eyes and restore sight to the blind. What a boon to the class our young Apollo is! Although outside of school he is full of quips and cranks and wanton Wiles, within these solemn halls of learning he has actually succumbed several times to the wooings of the Muse, as his class-work in literature reveals. Our L'Allegro has big, sad, mischievous eyes, too, 1believe it or not, girls5. In fact Bill is the very essence of vivacity and excels in every sport, particularly swimming. As 5 the college-on-the-hill seems to be his lodestone, we hope he will i reach the acme of success, and popularity there as well as here.

BLUMENTHAL KITINY-93 18 years Katherine Gibbs Where'd you get that grin? Cute, isn't she-our Esta? She's the sunniest, most mischievous, talented little imp in creation and We all love her for it. If you've never seen Es tap dance, you've missed a treat. She's vivacity personified and just radiates It. She and Ruthie may nearly always be seen side by side, and it's funny to hear them argue about which is the taller. Es is always a good pal and a peach of a sport. She's ready to have a good time any old time but knows enough to sail along smoothly in school. S'long, Es darling, we'11 be seeing you!

THE BLUE AND WHITE ELEANOR LOUISE P BRADLEY 17 years Pembroke One day Eleanor said Unprepared. Thirteen of the fifteen people in the class dropped their books and gasped. Eleanor is a peach for all that she is a brilliant scholar, and she always is willing to help a pal with a difficult passage in translation or problem in math. She rides horseback like a trouper, and plays tennis like a professional. Of all the girls in our class, she is the most likely to succeed. Good luck, Eleanor.

ETHEL IRENE BRIDGMAN MET!! 18 years Homeopathic Hospital This pleasant little miss is none other than our Et, who in her four years at Hope has won a host of friends with her sunny smile and jovial disposition. Et is a good sport and never says no when it comes to swimming, dancing, tennis or hiking, as these are her pet hobbies. Our Et intends to enter the Homeopathic Hospital upon completion of her studies at dear old Hope. We feel sure that the Homeopathic patients will be reluctant to leave after being under Et's care. We wish her good luck and God- speed, and a welcome will always await her when she wishes to favor us with a visit.

Institute Tutt, not King Tutt, but the modern Tutt is here in the disguise of Sam Broder. Not only is he the leading clarinette player in the orchestra, but he has been in the band since it was organized. Tutt performs wonders on the grid-iron, to say nothing of his powerful stroke on the swimming team. His cheerfulness, good sportmanship, and generosity have won him many friends. We recognize Tutt outside of school driving his royal chariot, steering clear of the opposite sex. ,We have often wondered about this. It is very unusual at any rate. So long, Sam!

'THE BLUE AND WHITE 5 PHYLLIS BUDLONG' ' I- PHIL, NPHEE PHEEH 5 17 years , Katherine Gibbs Phee Phee is the most sympathetic soul you could want. She is always understanding, and willing to help. If you get silly ideas, though, she is one of the best people to help you get them out of your system. Besides this talent for humanity, she is very gifted in the art of writing poems and rhymes. In fact, all her friends are positive that she is a budding Edna St. Vincent Millay, the second. 'Some day she is going to take dozens of pads and pencils and go way ofi' into the country, somewhere. When she comes back to civilization, she'll have a whole book of interesting poems all ready for the publisher. Then all her classmates will say: I told you so! Phil,'Told girl, We wish you luck and literary fame.

BUFFIN TON HBOB7! 17 years Duke University Bob is one of those lucky fellows who always seem to enjoy life. His bright, happy smile and his bright yalla sweater are land- marks at dear ole Hope. His ambition is to be a great Journal- ist. We can't imagine our Robert as anything else. We're with you, Bob! He derives the greatest pleasure in debating. Can he de- bate? And how! As many a teacher here has learned to her sorrow. But we mustn't forget to mention his studies. As a student of foreign languages, Bob is right there. We got fine marks together until the teacher moved his seatg then he got fine marks all alone. Alas! I lost my interpreter. Bob intends to go to Duke. Those Southern Beauties are waiting with bated breath for the arrival of our light-haired Romeo. Be good to them, Bob!

The young lady of the dimpled smile, charming manner, and Witty tongue. Many are the mornings that Pearlie' manages to get to her room before the fatal bell rings, but even in her rush she is always composed, neat, and dressed in good taste. Pearl is well liked by all her classmates for just being her natural, unassuming self. Swimming is all up. Pearl is a good pal and sport, and may the standard she has set during her high school course follow her in all her endeavors.

THE BLUE AND WHITE ANNE CATHERINE BUTLER 16 years Katherine Gibbs Who is that tall, smiling girl who sits in Room 4? Everyone knows that that's Anne, one of the few girls who can attend many social activities and still get an excellent report card. Anne says that she likes to dance, skate, and play tennis. Can we blame her? She always has a group of admirers around her. She intends to further her education at Katherine Gibbs Secre- tarial School and then go out into the business world, prepared to be someone's eflicient secretary. We know that she will be as great a success in business as she has been here at Hope. Our best wishes go with you, Anne.

She is full of fun and manages to get a good laugh out of each day's work. Whenever you hear a suppressed giggle, or Cmaybe sometimes it is not suppressed,1 you know Helen is around. Tennis is the only outdoor sport at which she spends much time. She also enjoys reading and dramatics, but don't think Helen is all fun,-she is full of work, too. Helen is never satisfied with less than an all A report, and she gets it every time. And oh, we almost forgot to tell you, another interesting hobby of Helen's is collecting stamps and coins. She is undecided about what she is going to do after she finishes Hope, but we know whatever she does she will be a great success.

MARTH1 HoWLAND CALDER CKPATD! 17 years w Wheaton Somebody called Pat Old English, because she can talk with the most delightful English accent when she wants to. And her Irish brogue! And .in her speed in speaking French-next to Helen Carr, who holds the speed record, Pat rates with a paragraph a minute! Her collection of rings is remarkable. Her love of arguing is well understood. Her love of horse-back riding is outstanding. In the ages to come, however, we shall always remember our Pat as the one Who, at any gathering, would sit down at the piano and pick out the most enticing j azz-tunes we could wish for.

THE BLUE AND WHITE MARY CARROLL 18 years . ' Choice-what does that call to mind? Beautiful black hair, a sweet face, and snappy brown eyes. Mary Carroll, the lovely sweetheart of the Senior Class, has not only been lavishly endowed by Mother Nature but also by Daddy Carroll. A dashing roadster is hers to enjoy and how she does enjoy it! We enjoy it, too,-that is, the more privileged among us have that good fortune, at times. Mary has a smile and a word for everyone, and popularity is her reward. She is a pleasing example of genuine school spirit. As an all-round girl and a good mixer, her star reaches the seventh heaven. May she follow it always and be happy.

If you're lucky enough to hear the exquisite music of our widely known harpist, you'll find out what it is that makes such a shy, retiring Pollyanna the centre of admira- tion among all her classmates. She and her side-kick Bede Black constitute a peach of a pair, just chuck full o' fun all the time. When she smiles we love her, and she never lacks a smile, so Adieu, Marianne, and may your path be strewn with roses all through life's gay springtime.

Jerome is one of the three Jeromes in the English and public speaking classes. If ever Jerry is wanted, a search in the chemistry class is always rewarded. Jerry is a shark in chemistry, and after school always may be found experimenting. Jerome has also been a help- ing hand in the Science and Slide Rule Clubs. Jerry intends to enter Brown University and study for a Ph Dryia. Best wishes for a happy and prosperous future, Jerry. Slide Rule Club, CLD: Science Club, C435 Track, CLD.

A play given in the hall, numerous posters about school, original illustrations in the Blue and White all prove how talented she is. We all love to hear Lee's opinions, too. Have you seen her manage the Book-of-the-Week Club program? If you haven't, you've missed something. She is an excellent sailor and braves the roughest seas.

But you'd be surprised! Every once in a while we hear a Wisecrack coming from the back of the room, and Frankie sits there, looking innocent.

A football game is not complete without Ev's high pitched voice screeching at some pretty visitor in the opposite stands.

We girls can't decide between Johnny and his side-kick, Bill Blanchard, as the best dancer, but score one for Johnny, as he won the prize waltz at the Junior Prom. There has been hardly one play in which Johnny has not appeared, and this fact along with that most thrilling, deep, sonorous voice of his, has won for him the dis- tinction of being the best boy actor in the class. That contagious smile of his will insure his success wherever he goes.

There certainly are no dark moments when our Kay is around. Kay has been given natural wavy hair besides other charms. We wonder why Kay looks forward to Friday nights!

Not even the slam books slam when they get to her name. Why? Because you can't find a meanthing to say about her. When the teachers call Ruth a sweet little girl, nobody yells out, teacher's pet, because Ruthie's not that type, and they know it. She and Esta get many folks all bawled up. They're supposed to look alike, you know, but in the last few years Ruthie has acquired a certain poise and dignity that that little imp of a sidekick of hers hasn't got.

If she cheered extra lustily for one player, who would say her nay? When she gets out of business school, she will make someone a perfect secretary. But we hope she gets her wish to travel.

ELI IRVING LEVINSON I'rcHY 17 years Brown Eli personifies three true Hope characteristics:-he is always a gentleman, a scholar, and an athlete. During his stay at Hope he has played football, starred on the basketball court as a member of his class team and a member of the Varsity, and many times while on the baseball field has thrilled the fair rooters with a spectacular catch on a long hit that won the day for dear old Hope. In spite of all these honors, Eli is modest and at all times conducts himself as a gentleman should. Not many outside activities have been denied the presence of Itchy because he has been very active along this line in clubs, school socials and the like. So long, Itchy, and don't forget Hope!

A friend in need is a friend indeed. That's our Ada, a sincere and loyal pal. Despite her interests in Maine, Ada seems to attain good marks in her class work.

She is one of our brightest Commercial students. Betty has won admiration of the faculty and is liked by all her classmates for her brilliancy. Au Revoir, dear classmate, and may success be yours.

Russ worked hard at hockey and his studies, but still had time to show up at all social affairs-usually accompanied by a petite brunette.

Dabbling in poetry seems to interest her particularly, thoughg so don't be surprised if you see one of her books published some day. Her friends are more than legions. Marjorie has been very active in the clubs at Hope and how she can be so full of fun and still rake in the A's is a mystery to all of us.

Mischievous blue eyes, gorgeous wavy hair, and a charming smile-that's our Mary. That isn't all, either! Every- body likes Mary because she has such a keen sense of humor, and is never seen without a smile. She surely is one wonderful friend, and we're not the only ones who think sol!!! She has a fascination for art as many of you know by her wonderful drawings. She intends to further her knowledge of art by entering the School of Design.

JEROME PANSY ROMEO 16 years Northeastern University Jerome is the class interpreter of German. All his spare moments are spent in room 2R, preparing German or arranging programs for the German Club. But he has other accomplishments. His items for the Anchor and his poems for English make us realize that someday we may be able to say, Oh, yes, I went to school with him. Isn't he grand!! He represents the dignified side of our class. He is always the epitome of politeness to the female sex. As yet, he has not shown any partiality toward anyone girl, but the girls are still hoping.

BLUE AND WHITE EUNICE PHILLIPS PARKER EUNIE 19 years Homeopathic Hospital There are so many things to be said about Eunice that one hesitates to begin. She appears to be a quiet and bashful girl at first acquaintance, but that impression does not remain long, for Eunice is always laughing and telling funny little stories that we all enjoy. Did I say quiet? I didn't mean that, for Eunice belongs to the Rifle Club and one can always find her out at the armory or range making all the noise one is capable of with a rifle. Eunice, while training to be a nurse and afterwards, will go on imparting her pleasant stories and drawing pictures to cheer her patients. Don't be too hard on the sick ones, Eunie!

Resourceful, competent, courageous, loyal-I don't think you could find a better friend than Chico, not even in the host of people now graduating, which is saying a lot. In every action Chico shows the cultivation of a super-personality. There is a rumor going around that wedding bells will soon be ringing for this nonchalant man about town. We wonder if this is the result of his super-personality. At any rate we feel that Chico will be as good a husband as he has been a pal, and we send him forth on his long journey to success with the best of wishes. Junior Chamber of Commerce.

When he is on the ground, he is usually either talking to some pretty girl, or shining at catch on the baseball team. These two duties are quite diiferent, but Art can handle either equally well. This is a big secret in his life, but it is said that he isn't particularly enthusiastic about Hebronville. We wonder why! Be good, old pal.

She gener- ally doesn't have much to say in public, but when she does say something, it certainly is worth listening to. Jennie is often seen patronizing the theaters and the next day commenting on the ability of each performer. She's never told us, but perhaps she intends to become a newspaper critic. If she does, we all know she has the ability and will some day be criticizing some of our famous stage and screen performers.

Well, the rest of you boys had better get busy because girls just a-d-o-r-e boys with good voices. They have that air of romance about them.

Seriously speaking, Hope will lose that nonchalant air of bravado which Louis personifies. Louis is a good shot with a gun, not to mention a golf ball. I, personally, saw him make a hole in one-not on a golf course but through a window. Louis will never be a misogynist. No Sir!

Throughout his school years Dave has been very active in many fields. The long list of accomplish- ments which follow his name is eloquent testimony of this fact. In the Law and Debating Clubs Dave has proved his co- operation and oratorical ability. We've heard various rumors of a certain Senior X, calisthenics, and Dave.

However, her natural intelligence eventually came to the front, and last September she joined the happy throng of Hopeites. It is an even happier throng now, for Selma has since contributed much to Hope. Her sunny smile alone has helped dispel many examination blues, her earnest or cutting arguments have aroused our dormant faculties in many an unending class, and, above all, her bewitching poetry has soothed our rufiied nerves after many a valiant struggle with the works of a certain John Milton. To mention Selma's further accomplishments, such as playing basketball or tennis, would be too much of a strain for the already jealous girls. She is going to become a stenographer and, though personally we feel that she is throwing away her talents, we are sure she will be a very efficient one even without the good luck which we are needlessly wishing her.

When she wasn't dreaming about different things in class, especially Latin, she showed the great brain power that we know will carry her on to outstanding triumphs.

Lou has a physique which would easily earn him a position as door man at the Biltmore or a major-domo at the Paramount. Lou is another one of those German students who pride themselves on being in Miss Presel's class, but many the time has Lou been the object of malevolent glances from that teacher. Lou is very popular with many girls in the school, especially a certain Bob- bie, In the band and orchestra Lou blows a wicked trumpet. Ask Mr. Greene.

What athletic team or social function would be complete without her? What boy will deny that she is Mother Terpsichore's favorite daughter? Her talents range from successfully circulating the Blue and Whites without error to being a perfect room-mate, having everything you have, in some way, forgotten. Those who know her know that even a high school senior may have her difficult decisions. And they do say she is a valuable asset to the Boys' Hockey Team and Track Team.

VANDALL BILL 19 years R. I. School of Design Bill is one of the most popular boys in the class. We all like Bill and always have. This is probably because he has some interest in all of us. He always wants to do his part and he has done it well at Hope. His fine work at making posters has been greatly ap- preciated by all. His work as Art Editor of the Blue and White is fine in itself. The help that he gave to the committee in charge of The Hopeful Merrymakersn amounted to a good deal. After this we feel sure that Bill has yet to make an even greater name for himself at the School of Design. Bill says that his chief hobby is fishing. He doesn't say much about his fishing. He must be a good fisherman. Last winter Bill split his knee up while skiing and was out a long time. However, we were more than glad to see him back and to hear him read another of those compositions. Ask anyone in Period VI.

EVA HARRIET WEINSTEIN 18 years Business Surely you have seen little Eva trying to walk along the corri- dors with the rest of the Seniors. But notice I say trying, because Eva is so petite it's hard for her to keep up with the crowd. This young lady can be seen on the dance floor quite often with a certain blonde fellow. She also enjoys her swimming, and is she a graceful swimmer? Just ask some of her more intimate friends. Janet can vouch for that. Eva is also one of our young ladies who enjoy disputing with our faculty. Good luck, Eva, and we hope to see you at the head of some large organization soon.

THE BLUE AND WHITE JOHN PAUL WHELAN JACK, MoPEY DICK, DUKE 18 years Boston University John Whelan-Seekonk's bad boy, I-Iope's good boy, everyone's boy friend. One thing which We all admire in the Duke is his delicate sense of humor. It breaks out at odd times and the oc- casion has yet to arise which will find the Duke Without a witty word. The Duke is a born poet, and his successful attempts at this noble art have amazed his English teachers and fellow students. All we can say is-Watch out, Mr. Milton, Watch out! Johnnie studied history While in Hope Street but we all feel sure that History will soon have to turn about face and study John. Baseball, C315 Junior Varsity. BARBARA WHITE 18 years College Yes, readers, Bobbie is one of those individual types and we are deeply indebted to Classical High for allowing her to carve her name on the roster of our class just two years ago. Dainty, graceful, and vivacious she is the person without whom any social function is incomplete. Her irresistible smile has penetrated many a cloud like a ray of sunshine. Happy and carefree as she is, there is a spark of true loyalty in Bob's countenance explaining her pop- ularity and predicting her future happiness. May Barbara and Good Fortune ever be the best of friends.

GRACE LEOCADIA WHITE 17 years Business Let us present our Grace, the dainty little Miss who has Won the hearts of all. The quotation, A Look Means A Lot, certainly can well be applied to her. It is not alone Grace's dignified beauty which makes her so charming-it is her unconscious possession of it that enhances it a thousand fold. During her four years at Hope she has also attained the scholastic goal for which she has earnestly striven. Whatever time holds for the Grace of our class, we know that all her ambition will become realization. Travel Club, CID, Secretarial Club, UQ, Ofice Work, C3J, UQ, Glee Club, CLD. THE BLUE AND WHITE JAMES A. WHITE JIMM1E 17 years Bryant Sz Stratton Jimmie is a great believer in the axiom: Silence is golden. He is one of the quietest boys in the class, but when his opinion is asked on any subject, his viewpoints are well worth listening to. The business world will soon have a valuable asset when he em- barks on his business career. Due to his imperturbability he will make a fine executive in some large business concern. Jimmie is a good friend too, always willing to help a fellow in distress, especially when said fellow hasn't his home-work done. Keep up the good work, J amesg we're with you.

RALPH WHOLEY ccRAFF, yy 17 years French Academy of Fine Arts Ralph Wholey is the boy in our class who stands for everything a boy should be. He was one of the best sports who ever starred in athletics at Hope, and if he weren't so bashful, we should list all the things he has done and the positions he has held. Altho Rafi had his attentions pretty well centered, there were a good many girls in the school who admired him longingly, to say the least. Rafi never did the expected and conventional all the time he was at Hope. Ralph, we know you'll get there and we're root- ing for you just as we did from the bleachers.

Every time one meets Helen she has that mischievous twinkle in her eye and a ready smile. Her laughter is contagious, as all of us who know her are aware. The old saying, Good goods come in small packages, is true in Helen's case. We were fortunate in having her spend her four years at Hope. Singing is Helen's chief interest, but she is undecided as to her future. Whatever career Helen undertakes, we are sure of her success. Member of N. E.

Gil has always been the pride of Mister Greene's classes and has always been first in war, first in peace, and first in his exalted place at band rehearsals.

In addition to this she has a charming personality, which will win for her success in everything she undertakes. The best of luck to you always, and we hope you never forget us.

Although Billie hasn't been here long, she certainly has won a place in everyone's heart, for to know her is to love her. Billie is artistically inclined, and we are sure she will succeed. Everyone knows that Billie loves dancing and certainly does it well. Not only that, but her hobby is reading romances. Good luck to you and don't forget your short stay at Hope, Billie. THE BLUE AND WHITE ALICE KIERNAN 17 years Bryant Sz Stratton Those of us who know Alice well are very much interested in what she is and does, for her bright smile demands friendship and recognition from all. She's rather versatile because her interests are so varied. The business courses know her unfailing energy, and the home economics classes have discovered her desire to succeed among the duties of a home. She rides horseback as if born to the saddle, and in Winter months you can see her displaying her skill on the ice. Among her other interests Alice never fails to enjoy reading.

John is a college boy. He is a fine boy morally and physically. His professors marvel at his so-often-dis- played literary genius. They predict he will go far in the world. John, however, has one failing which we, his friends, fear will much impede his progress up the ladder of fame. The other day in conversation someone remarked, Yes, but John is never wrong. This statement, of course, is absurd. John is sometimes wrong. However much we dis- like it, the fact remains that to be wrong is a human failing. There is nothing to be ashamed of in being wrong. Mistakes were invented that man might learn. The im- portant thing is-do you admit you are wrong? The mere outward formality of saying, I'm sorry I was mistaken, will not suflice. The thing must go deeper than that. The man must enter the inner sanctum of his conscience and there must he admit his mistake. Then, and only then has he not only redeemed his mistake but taken one more step toward perfecting his character. Were he merely to say to the person he has wronged, I am sorry 3 I was mistaken, and not conscientiously mean it, then he has not committed one mistake, but two, the last infinitely more serious than the first. As the immortal Shakespeare has said: This above all things, to thine own self be true. And it needs must follow as night the day Thou can'st not be false to any man. Honesty with oneself is the first requisite of true character 5 so let us not be too proud to admit our mistakes, for pride is too often the cloak with which we cover our littleness. If we would be truly great, let us not forget that the man who is truly great is the man who has humbled himself. ELSA L. PRITCHARD, '31. For It Is Beauty That I Love A lone hill was bathed In moonlight--a star I Gleamed peacefully above, far From the rush of the world I stayed My -blundering steps, I was afraid A g I'd break the wonderous beauty of The spot-somehow it made me love All mankind, and itmade Me think of Christ and His Love For us-Everything was so still, So peaceful, just the beauty was enough To make me love that hill. . There, I could stay forever knowing only the thrill That comes from lovelinessg for it is beauty that I love. ALICE ANNE SHUE, '31, THE BLUE AND WHITE 61 Writing Personals OF all jobs, writing personals is the worst. To begin with, you are very polite and ask the victim what he wants written. He is very vague and says that it must be nice- Very nice, in fact. So you sit down and pro- ceed to write a ,stilted account of all his magnificent achievements during his four years at Hope, and you wish him good luck and tell him not to forget the good old days at Hope. You read this through and decide it's fairly good for a first trial. The second one is a stern record of all his failures and faults, the third, a mixture of the two. Before starting the fourth, in mighty scorn, you burn the second, and in this last you combine the first and third. With another display of manly disgust you tear into shreds all but the first and sit and meditate upon your own sins for a while. And so on, far into the night, until looking at the survivor again, you decide that you didn't realize how good it was, after all- that all those big words sound nice-and who cares whether it applies to the person or not? ELEANOR L. BRADLEY, '31. Those Little White Lies CALDWELL HUGH TREVOR, III, al- ways had been terribly bored with his life. In his years at Andover he was bored, and this boredom continued until long after Commencement Day at Yale, many years later. On this particular night, Hugh sat back 'in his Cadillac Sport Phaeton, his blond hair slicked back under a silk hat, and his chin high. His engine roared around the curves, and his horn sounded pettishly at every corner. Another lapse and here he was. Hugh found his way up the drive, under the porte-cochere and down to the parking place near the Country Club. He left. his car and proceeded very gallantly up to the ball room. My, the crowd was punk! Look at that, Carol with all that lipstick on. Ruth just would wear a dress like that, she looks so fat. Well, I'll be hamstrungg Bob Hayes with that mess. He usually has somewhat good taste-I guess it's all in his mouth after all! Pl-ease, my nerves! Who is that? The blue satin slippers caught his eyes. His glance wan- dered upward, stopping at a piquant little face surrounded by auburn curls. Hm! Something new ! He sauntered across the parquet toward the owner of the blue slippers-and the auburn hair. He tapped. Her partner stepped aside and with a Hello, Hugh, you home? and Thanks, Joan, 1he left the two to that which some people call fate. Joan, started Hugh, you have the prettiest blue eyes! By the way, what did you say your last name is? I didn't say, replied Joan, but now that you remind me it is Walling. Uh huh? You are new at this Club, aren't you? Gee, I'm glad you're here. You dance as well as any girl I've ever danced with, and better than most. She smiled into his glorious face. Thanks, but I'm awfully tired of dancing! Well, you are different! Let's go out on the piazza! and so saying, Hugh ushered Joan across the sparkling floor and to the piazza, where he assisted her up on the railing. Minutes passed. The moon shone constantly and beamingly down on the two. They spoke, they discussed life. Joan sighed. Ch, Hugh, as soon as I saw you, I knew you were different, you were the type who would understand and sympathize. I'm so fed up with all this, and I want some one to take me away. I know it is all foolishness, but I'm so young, only nineteen, and life has just come too fast and flightfully for me. Joan, you poor child, Hugh muttered gently into her hair, let's get away from here and talk. I'll get my car-meet me here in two minutes. Two minutes later-but no Joan. He'd look inside 5 maybe someone already had asked her for this dance and he didn't really give her a chance to say, Yes, or, UNO. No, not in here-he'd wait on the piazza for her. Everything was quiet! Suddenly there were footsteps on the porch above the one Hugh occupied. He heard voices, soft and indistinct. Gradually he could understand the words. Oh, Jack, as soon as I saw you, I knew you were different, you were the type who would understand and sympathize. I'm so fed up with all this, and I want some one to take me away. I know it's all foolishness, I'm so young, only nineteen, but life has just come too fast and flightfully for me. Caldwell Hugh Trevor, III, turned, and as he stalked towards the car, he heard the faint strains of the orchestra playing Little White Lies. Hugh slouched into his Cadillac Sport Phaeton, his blond hair mussed from the wind and his chin hung low. The engine roared around the curvesg his horn sounded feebly at every corner. He suddenly threw back his head and laughed. As he stopped at his family resi- dence, he caught himself singing Little White Lies. DIANA SCHLOSS, '31, THE BLUE AND WHITE THE BLUE AND WHITE 63 wa-lo' WHO IN HQPE 9 Who's Who THE CONFIDANT OF 1945 -Kay Nolan writes me that she doesn't know what to do because her husband insists upon wearing black shirts. For this reason, their two children don't love and respect their father as much as they should, and Mrs. Nolan wants to know whether she should burn the black shirts or begin Washing the white ones. -I saw in the paper the other day that the Hope nine won their fortieth straight victory of the season. Just before each game, tho, Coach Van Benschoten has told me she was sure they were going to lose, but in each case, her boys, captained by a Willing third-baseman, have come through with another victory. -Kay Richards came into my office not so long ago, so happy that I thought she would explode. You see, there's a dark- haired brown-eyed fellow named Scotty who was shipwrecked in 1931 and she thought he was deadg but he came back the day before and now they are both happy. -Little did the founders of the Squantum Indians back in 1931 think that their team would become a Major League contestant. Cicero Cosgrove, the catcher, confides in me, however, that the worst of his job is that it stunts his growthg but this fact, however true, doesn't keep him from holding the record for base-stealing. His pal and team mate, Jim Colton, has headed the batting list for four years now with an aver- age of .971. -My telephone rang wildly one day, and I was surprised to hear that it was a friend of former days-Mildred Hull. She was all excited because Jim McAndrews, whom no woman had yet been able to get, had just proposed to her. She is waiting for Bob Manchester to propose, tho 3 so she said No to the amorous James. -It is a fad now for women to carry trained spiders on their shoulders. I don't know who started it, but right after gradua- tion, Martha Hamblin established a spider farm out in Seekonk, which is a city now, by the way. She seems to be drawing con- siderable profit from her venture. -And perhaps you alumni might be interested to know that Thurston Spicer keeps a sandwich shop, The Spicy Ham Shop, down near the Blanchard and Considine School of Dancing. This also returns good profits to Spicer's pocket, as the dancers often feel the need of solid food after practising so long at the bar. -I just received my annual post-card from Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Swift. Every Easter he and his wife, who used to be Dot Lovell, take a trip to Washington as a sort of anniversary of how they met. -Bernard Lewis confided his hopes to me before he left on the Berengaria for the Olympic games. He hopes to be, and we feel sure that he will be, the running broad- jump champion of the world. -He surely got a lot of encouragement in the advertising line, for Marjorie McCabe, President of the American Advertising As- sociation, is an old friend of his and shares his hopes. -More of my old friends are presidents now! There is Marjorie McCabe, as I mentioned before, and Tom Coffey, who is president of the United Tobacco Corpora- tion 5 Gordon Allen, who is president of Harvard Universityg David Haynes, who is Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, and bids fair to become president of the United Statesg and Ralph Wholey, who is president of the French Academy. -I see that Reah Parkhurst won the award for the best performance in the movies last year. If you won't tell, I'll tell you a secret. Reah Parkhurst is none other than Alice Anne Shue. -Do you know that Richard Shaw has won the prize for the best architectural ac- complishment for 1945? The building is really a marvel, twice as large as the Holland Square Building, which, in turn, is twice as large as the Empire State Building. But the best feature of his Whole work is the 64 THE. BLUE AND WHITE joining of the three buildings, which are at opposite ends of the city, by duro spans. -My niece brought home her French book, Conteurs Francais D'Aujourd'hui, and chancing to open it, I received the shock of my life, for there I read that Helen Carr, mon petite amie d'autrefois, is the presi- dent of the Sorbonne. Well, we always knew that Helen would make good. -Tomorrow night, there will be a huge crowd at the dedication of the NEW HOPE STREET HIGH SoHooL Cdon't faint, pleasej! Selma Silverman, now a celebrated pianist, has just returned from a concert tour of Europe, and will be there to help dedicate the so-long-wished-for high school. -Did you know that Martha Calder has put Chanel and Patou out of business? She started a fashion shop in New York a while ago and became world-famous over- night, as it were, for her pajama styles, jewelry sets, and clothes in general. Now, all the European society comes to America, and American society can stay at home and not go abroad for a spring wardrobe. -But I'm not- getting a break at all! It's fourteen years since I graduated from dear old Hope, and I'm still looking for a man. What shall I do now that Jack, and Russell, and Johnnie, and Jim, and Fred, and Tom, and even Walter, are all married? Well-here's hoping! ! I ALMA THOMAS, '31. Wallpaper ONE, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight -pink ones, yellow ones, blue ones! Green patches of shabby somethings all in a maze. Glaring, fire-colored impossibilities streaking their way through a tangle of hectic modernistic colors. What a relief to find a bit of white! Somewhere in the mass, crazily slanting milky moons added to the grotesqueness of the scene. Lightning flashes darted occasionally in, and tall lumbering forest giants spread their leafy elegance. I saw the silvery teardrops of the sky gleam mistily here and there, and sometimes a five pointed star would glimmer. There were huge monsters chasing chattering monkeys 'round and 'round the snaky sea- green river. Trees, Howers, birds, lightning, rain, moon, stars, rivers, monsters, monkeys -all jumbled up into wallpaper! SELMA RUBEN, '31, Towered Cities Please Us Then THE sun pursued his way lazily across the sky. He was going to bed. As he threw off his radiant garments, the sky was filled with multi-colored reflections, ranging from burnt golden orange to a rosy hue and here and there a sort of lavender where the blue touched the last rays. Then he pulled the cloudy bedclothes over his head and dis- appeared behind the tall skyscrapers. Gray pointed buildings reaching to the heaven, silhouetted against the fast fading sky. This one is upright and square, defying Nature 5 that one, pinnacled, slender, grace- ful, personifying man's love of beauty. The breath of Spring floated on the river. It was so good to be alive 'mid the dusky streets and tall, gray buildings. There was something about the very atmosphere that uttered the call of romance and vagabondia. About the friendly, strong building, dusk now was fading into night, lights twinkled, cars passed, and people-people going home -people who were tired, who with some- thing accomplished, something done had earned their night's repose. Somehow that wasn't what one wanted. One wanted cities, dusky cities, cities with the sun gone down and tall, gray, granite buildings for company. ELSA L. PRITCHARD, '31.

PANSY, '31, THE BLUE AND WHITE 65 Mrs. Harrison's Little Girl MRS. Harrison's little girl was good, very good. In fact, she was called that name dreaded of all children, goody-goody. Many a night, as she lay wide awake in her cool little white bed, she thought about that word. Why did she hate it so? She should not - Mother liked it. Mother smiled when people patted her on the head, and said what a good little girl she was, but the children in school did not like it. They laughed at her when she was patted on the head, they called her goody-goody with a jeer. She reiiected on that. She would have to do something, something very bad and wicked, and then they could not call her that again. As she stood before her mirror, one Mon- day afternoon, she realized the time had come. In five minutes more she would be called down by her mother to say How- do- you-do? to the Sewing Circle, and to shake all the softly-plump, thimble-fingered hands. Then she would do it, the wicked thing. She did not know what exactly 5 she hoped it would come to her when she was down there. In fact, she was sure it would come. One day, when she had asked the friendly, curly-haired delivery boy how you plan mis- chief, he had said, laughing uproariously, Why, kid, you don't plan mischief 5 it just comes. That was why she was sure. Mother was calling. She walked down the stairs very softly, very quietly, as she had done numerous Mondays before. She entered the room, sliding gently through the door, as she had done numerous Mondays before. It was all the same, no one could tell what was about to happen. Only she knew. She heard their voices- Oh, what a dear little girl! - She looks just like you, Mary. - No, I think like Fred. - Come shake hands with me, dear. - That's a good girl. - You remember Mrs. Allen, don't you, sweetheart? She answered them all with a grave little smile and nod of her head, as she had done countless Mondays before. Inside she was waiting, waiting. But she did not feel itg the mischief was not coming! She was getting frightened! Perhaps-but no, that could not be so. The delivery boy had said it would come, and he knew. She was turning around and walking out of the room, she had not done anything. Oh, it was terrible! She tried to say something- anything, but her lips would not move, and she was coming nearer and nearer the door. Oh, what could she do? As' she closed the door softly behind her, she heard one of the women say, Why, Mary, what a dear, sweet child 3 so good. She burst into frantic tears, and ran blindly to her room. Goody-goody!

MARTHA HAMBLIN, '31, 66 THE BLUE AND WI-II-.TE The Gates of Imagination Before a glowing fireplace Lies a little lad a-dreaming. His hands uphold a smiling face Made bright by the fire gleaming. His eyes see the colored fairy flames Dance weirdly to and fro, While his mind is traveling miles away, Down the Road To Long Ago. He is dressed in armor of shining plate On a huge and fiery steed, And is waving farewell to his lady fair Who bids him a smiling Godspeed And then to conquer a daring foe, He rides with spirit bold, And later, a hero comes prancing home, As behooves a knight of old. Then he changes his course from land to main, With adventure deep in his wake. And he struts o'er the ship with his dagger sharp, Causing his victims to quake. Treasures of silver, and gold has he, His share of ill-gotten gain. For such are the joys of a pirate bold Who sails the raging main., He has battered and won in many a iight, And dazzled by fortune and fame. It matters not whether he's prince or knight Or pirate: for what's in a name? . This dreamy lad sees wonderful things Which others may not perceive, For the Gates of Imagination lead To this Land of Make-Believe. BUNNY MAGUIRE, '31. The Octogenarian CAs Mary Stone is walking down the village street, she meets Mr. Brown, an old Civil War veteran, hobbling along on his two canes.D Mary: Good morning, Mr. Brown. Mr. Brown: Good morning, my girl, good morning. How are you this morning? Now let me see-are you the younger or the older? Mary: The younger, Mr. Brown. Mr. Brown: Oh, yes, the younger! Of course! Now let me see-are you the nurse, or the one who is in school? Mary: No, Mr. Brown, it is my sister who is studying to be a nurse. 6 Mr. Brown: f'Yes! Yes! Now you know I was in the hospital for over a year and I had lots of nice pretty girls waiting on me. Those girls certainly work hard. People say that nursing is easy, but I know dif- ferently. When you get as old as I am, you will know more about this world. Now, you see that church there? Mary: Yes, Mr. Brown. Mr. Brown: Well, I remember when they laid the cornerstone of that church. I was a boy then. Maybe you remember: it was in the year of 1851 on a beautiful spring day? Mary: Yes, you have often told me about it, Mr. Brown. Mr. Brown: Well, everybody in the village gathered in the churchyard to see the service. Do you know those were the days when I knew every Bishop in the United States? Now you know this man in Provi- dence who is called Bishop Perry? Well, he iss now the Presiding Bishop of the United tatesf' Mary: Yes, I know, Mr. Brown. Mr. Brown: Well, when you go home, you ask your father if he thinks Bishop Perry will again be elected Presiding Bishop for the next six years. 4 Mary: Yes, I shall. Mr. Brown: Do you see that young man in the gray suit? Well, I knew his father very well, and his grandfather and I were very good friends. We were in the Civil War together and I shall never forget the time when I was wounded in the Battle of Bull Run. Did I ever tell you aboutthe Battle of Bull Run? Mary: Yes, Mr. Brown, many times . Mr. Brown: Well, you know that was the first battle that I had ever been wounded in Mary: Excuse me, Mr. Brown, but I shall be late 5 I'm on my way to school. Mr. Brown: Certainly! Certainly! Let me see-are you the younger or the older? Mary: The younger, Mr. Brown. Mr. Brown: Yes! Yes! Good Day! Good Day! And don't tire yourself all out in that hospital. I know how hard you pretty nurses work! - ELSIE HAWK, '32. AND WHERE Is SHE Now d f'How's your wife coming along with r1v1ng? She took a turn for the worse last week. THEIBLUE AND WHITE 67 By. THERE was a line in a recent movie that went It's always the Innocent By- stander who gets shot in the leg. I suppose I should be thankful that I haven't 'been shot. I've been frightfully shocked by some things I've seen and heard, tho. Unprint- able! There have been times, tho, I must admit, when it has been almost impossible to dig up any scandal of any degree or class. Had a heated argument with Art Pickett the other day. He declared that girls didn't go to see baseball games and track meets, but baseball players and track men. I was equally vehement that girls have a great passion for the arts of throwing balls, and leaping over bars. I had to admit, tho, that there are a few girls crazy enough to see her hero come in last or strike out. She can always comfort herself with the thought that he was probably thinking of her and didn't have his mind on the work at hand. But just let her try to get someone else to believe that golden thought! There have been quite a few couples this year that have endured all the trials and tribulations so numerous in high school affairs. Among them are: M. H. and B. M., M. H. and T. S., M. L. G. and J. C.3 Z. F. and S. S., B. B. and M. M., P. C. and J. C., C. L. M. and R. R., M. S. and G. M., and of course the star couple of Bunny Maguire and Fred Caton. Find your name? If it isn't there, I'm sorry I missed it, but even an Innocent Bystander cannot see every- thing and still graduate. At the Circus one night we saw Carlton Drummond and Francis Powers trying to run the thousand on an elephant's back. What we wonder is, who is this unknown sheik that Pat Calder meets every after- noon and goes joy-riding with?

She so well understands the desires of her guests. HE ENT I S R n. m..ros-:fra From all accounts, the Washington trip was a great success. The three boys from Hope certainly did a fine job, even in the minority, altho they are still suffering from the results. The results? Well, ask Walter Barney, Jerry Dunn or Joe Swift. We're ashamed of Joe, tho, for with all those pretty Hope girls present he had to go and be at- tracted by two Classical girls. Such school spirit. Ain't it awful! Anc two of them, too! Lois Tucker is another one who lacks school spirit. She has all her interest cen- tered in East Providence. Then there are all those girls who think that Brown is the most interesting spot on the East Side. j ,Hope Sorrell is one loyal girl, tho. She is always willing to help out some lonesome They just flock to Sophomore or Junior. her 5 you never see her withouttwo or three of them around. Even next year's football captain isn't averse to taking advice from her, and the Seniors all- appreciate her sympathy for them in time of need. She's going to make some lucky fellow a good wife. .Earl Richards and Eddie Toy were out ridingwith some Wheeler School girls the other day. How these boys get into society! A couple of weeks ago we noticed how pale and drawn the teachers looked. They went around the building with a dogged look on their faces. Upon investigation we found out that George Wholey had re-entered this school. Who can blame them? Someone ought to write a book entitled The Last of the Wholeysf' It would be a best seller. The track team was holding practice on Westminster Street a couple of weeks ago, after having their picture taken. That is, all except the captain, who strolled along quite sedately, having more important busi- ness on hand. The rest of the team was showing the crowd what Hope stars can do for speed. Doesn't Martha Hamblin look superb in that reddish-orange jersey? Most every- one thinks so, especially someone from Room 1. Wouldn't she look great in a bathing suit that color? 68 THE BLUE At the Junior Prom in March another case of pupil becoming greater than master was brought to light. John Considine won the Prize Waltz, while Bill Blanchard only reached the quarter finals. We think that Leona Langevin's dress had something to do with it. No one could resist that lovely floating effect, even the judges. We wonder what Irving Kopit gets in Chemistry. He does his experiments in such a neat way! Mr. Beers said before the Anthony Medal Writing that the boys should have letters and the girls, figures. By the way, did you see all the pictures of the girlsfswimming team? Some were better than others. All the girls were out selling tickets for their medals. They had the same line as the house to house can- vassers for magazines in summer-you know, about college. Only the girls' was: Buy a ticket and help me get a medal ! Just maybe Bob Cosgrove can't tease a person at a baseball game. And Fred North- up isn't far behind. Miss Hall had an awful time in English class a few weeks ago. She read these love sonnets to us and then asked questions about them. But nobody knew anything about love, and what little we did we forgot on account of the heat. Gordon Allen and Eli Levinson were the only two who answered any of her questions correctly. The rest of us just sat there and stared at her blanklyg even Barnie Oster and Georgia McGunnegle remained quiet. In the same class, she was right in the middle of reading one of the most impassioned sonnets, when outside one of those fish-horn affairs went off. What little love element there had been in the class fled entirely at that, never to return. We wonder if there will be open house at Kingston this year. We noticed that last year the Hope students were the best be- haved people present. This paper will be handed in before it comes off, but we know now the people who will be there. We have a hunch that Rastus Wholey will win the Anthony Medal, for he wrote all the fifteen minutes that he wasn't reading the newspaper or doing Math problems. Does anything get by the coaches of boys' teams? ? We saw Gordon Allen, Alice Shue, Lloyd Cook and Marjorie McCabe at the Biltmore the other night. Also saw Marjorie Murray with a Brown fellow that she met at a student dance. Some people think that she got a breakg but knowing the fellow, we think he is the only one favored by fortune. AND WHITE Speaking of brotherly affection, this is choice. Jim Colton was dancing with his sister Mary the other night, when all of a sudden he leaned over and kissed her on the right cheek. Page M. L. G.! Virginia Taylor got caught at her tricks the other day. She was reflecting light with a mirror in Chemistry Class. Maybe that comes under the study of the spectroscope. We wonder where Arthur Newman is headed every Sunday 5 and all dolled up, too. Be careful, Art. That jumping pit at Hope Field is awfully deep. You sink into it and you think you will never get out. Did anyone ever see Leo Schretter quiet? When I told Dot Markoff there wasn't any scandal, she offered to murder someone. Would it be a teacher, or one of her admirers that keep her from getting sleep? Pud Quirk got murdered one night, so maybe he could help her. Mildred Hull most obligingly offered to elope. We don't need to tell with whom. Bernard Lewis swings a mean tennis racquet, and has no compunction against hitting a girl in the eye with a ball. Well, I'll be seeing you in Sing Sing. WHAT A LINE! Don't you know her? Why, she lives in the same square with you. Yes, but she's not in the same circle. :lf ik Pk ALso BACK Mrs. Newly Rich: Yes, all real antiques. Some of our chairs go back to Louis XIV. Mrs. Not-So-Rich: Same with us. Our dining room set goes back to Shepard's on the fifteenth. wk PF wk HALF A ROUND Is that you, J ones? said a voice over the telephone. What do you say to a round of golf ? I'm sorry, replied Jones, but I'm afraid I can't. You see I'm in half-mourning. Oh, dubiously from the other end- then brightly, What about nine holes? PK bk wk STORE-BOUGHT Doctor: When the symptoms first ap- proached, did your teeth chatter? Patient: I don't know. They were on the table. THE BLUE AND WHITE 69 j Social Events HERE we are doing the same things day in and day out, not realizing that it all leads to one big event. Does it seem quite possible that graduation is here again? There has been graduation after graduation, but this is My Graduation. There is nothing better one can do at this time, I think, than look back on all the social ac- tivities of the past year. Of course, everyone has attended at least one student frolic in his Senior year? No? S'Funny! How could you possibly resist attending if only to mix with the crowd, and there always is a crowd. Well, if you haven't, it's too late to cry over spilled milk now. Early in the fall the Hi-Tri Club of Hope always gives one of the most successful dances of the season. Not only do outsiders come, but all the enthusiastic dance fiends of our dear Alma Mater- and no wonder! Such girls as Georgia McGunnegle and Bunny Maguire help to plan them. About this time, jolly old Santa Claus comes sleighing along bringing with him a Christmas Play which is usually written by Miss Allan. Miss Allan together with Miss Slack's no not like that 5 put more expression in it always sends it over big. Added to these social functions comes mid-year grad- uation welcoming with it a Senior X play, to which everyone comes, a banquet for the class, and their last thrill-the Prom. Wait, I haven't Hnished yet! Is there anyone who doesn't know our quickwitted, humor- ous French instructor, Mrs. Cushing? No one. Well then, of course, you witnessed her presentation of the Hopeful Merrymakers in which everyone in any way gifted partic- ipated. With some of the best Junior Proms, proving John Considine and Leona Langevin the prize Waltzers, and several student dances filling our time, we finally come to the most important part of our Senior year- the last half. It is so full of events, each and every one better than the former, which keep us stepping and, I presume, Mr. Jager and Mr. Hussey also. As I have hinted before, the Senior Prom heads the list, and what a time-not too blase and not too boisterous, in other words just right. Then our class presented an hilarious Poverty Ball. I believe everyone went temporarily crazy that night. What would Spring do without Spring fever, but when it comes to the socials, the Spring flies out the window. On the second day of May the Junior Dramatic Society presented its annual plays, which are under the supervision of Miss Brooks. Three short plays were successfully drama- tized by Elsie and Lois Landauer, John Hanan, Philip Shires, Alice Melrose, William Lewis, Sydney Long, Sydney Shepard, Ed- win Soforenko, Gerald Mullen, Peggy Con- nell, Ida Roy and Clifford Warden. Bernard Lewis, to whom we owe the success of all our lighting effects, was the Master Electrician. After these plays were over, dancing followed with music by D. Wellington Brooks and his orchestra. Come out of the Kitchen. How does that sound? Well, it certainly implies just what it produces. This three-act comedy was our Senior Play, and what a good one. A group of sisters and brothers decide to rent their roomy summer house. Well, they rent it to a family from the city, and then the plot thickens. There becomes a certain fascination to the kitchen developing into-ah! but that's another story. The whole thing went over with a bang-and those to whom credit is due are Miss Slack, Alma Thomas, Kathryn O'Meara, Tom Coffey, David Haynes, John Considine, Bill Blanchard, Gordon Allen, Dorothy Markoff, Martha Calder, Bernard Oster, Don Madigan and Georgia McGunnegle. Well, folks, you must agree with me that we've all had the very best times at Hope in sports, studies, and last but not at all least-social functions. Next year we Seniors will look back at all the joyous events and say Gee, I wish I were back in Hope, and not just an outsider. KAY KRUEGER, '31. Summer Summer is beckoning, one and all, Can't you hear its coaxing call? The trees, the brooks, the birds and flowers, Sunny fields and shady bowers, Swimming, tennis, and sailing, too, Time-worn sports, but ever new. School days are shortening, yes,,and soon We will be singing another tune, With no more books, no lessons to do, No more classes to saunter to, No more rules or bells to obey, Or detention room at the close of day, Nature is calling to every one, Come on, get ready for lots of fun, A season of joy is awaiting you, Meeting old friends and meeting new. Now-one, two, three, a hearty cheer, For summer, a welcome guest, is here!

Elle avait les yeux bleus et les cheveux blonds. Dans le jardin fi cote de la vieille maison elle jouait avec ses pou- pees et ses joujoux, balbutiant 21 elle-meme. La jeune mere, la regardant de la fenetre, revait a l'avenir de sa fille. Son mari, jeune homme brillant, reussit dans son commerce. Bientot, pensait-elle, ils demenageraient a la grande ville. La, ils auraient leur maison at eux. La petite irait at l'ecole, puis au lycee, et enfin a l'universite. Elle aurait une bonne educationLLa mere cessa de rever et alla faire son travail. ' Quelques minutes plus tard la petite leva la tete. Elle apercut in gros chat noir qui traversait le jardin. Elle l'appela. Le chat se tourna vers elle et la regarda un instant avec ses yeux verts pleins de froideur. Puis il continua a marcher. Encore une fois elle l'appela. Il l'ignora. Elle se leva et le suivit. Ce soir le pere et la mere, les coeurs pris de terreur, cherchaient la petite fille partout. Les voisins les aidaient. Enfin, tres fatigues et ayant perdu toute esperance, ils re- tournerent chez eux. Le lendemain quelqu'un a trouve la pauvre petite a cote du chemin de fer. Le train direct l'avait ecraseei Du haut d'une grande boite le chat noir la regardait encore avec les yeux verts pleins de froideur. DoRoTHY A. SYLVIA, '31. Countess or Duchess, Which? DID you know that I.am really a countess or duchess or something in that line? Well, neither did I, until I heard a bit of the family history told by my great-grand- mother, an elderly woman who seldom speaks but who, when she does, says something worth-while. About one hundred years ago it was the custom of the Russians to make soldiers of their people at the age of twenty-one. People who would not adhere to thebeliefs of the established church of Russia were taken when children and kept under the control of the Czar, who treated them wickedly. A rich man, if he refused to obey this law, could give a poor child together with a large sum of money, instead of his own, and would thus be freed from this care. These children were handled mercilessly if they didn't agree to take the religion of Russia sooner or later. My great grandfather escaped this fate until he was twenty-one, but at this age he was summoned by the government. He was very strict in his religious beliefs and no inducements could change him. The only thing for him to do, therefore, was to flee from the strict hand of Russia. He escaped through the woods with a few of his close friends and arrived at a place which he called M. He paid the Russian government much money to pardon him and to give him a small tract of land. He and his friends roughly developed this land and it grew to be comparatively large. It was not governed by Russia, all the while, but by the few people who had founded it. At one time one of my ancestors was govern- or, mayor, fireman, policeman, and every other oflicial in the village. Yet America seemed more tempting to my parents than this land in Russia, so they came to this country. But why had they come across? If they had remained in M. I should have been at least a Duchess, if no more. E. LECHT, '33. Reminiscences I WAS all alone near the girls' mirror,one day, standing still as a mouse, so I guess no one knew I was there-not even the mirror. I heard a sound like a deep sigh and then a voice-it was the mirror speaking: My, I've been here over thirty years and the times surely have changed. I remember when everything in this building was new and everyone thought that this high school was a wonderful place. I seldom see anyone but girls, so every time I'm alone I compare those maidens of the 'Gay 90's' with these modern misses. They surely have changed. Those of thirty years ago would come in with their hair piled high on their heads and give it a pat here and there. Then a few of them would proudly take out a powder-puff and sprinkle a bit of dust on their noses, immediately wiping most of it off and asking their friends, Have I got too much on? I'll never forget how shocked I was that day when one girl put on some rouge. I almost fell off the wall-in fact, I did the next day, but they put me up again. That girl was suspended for a week-so I heard- as everyone was speaking about it. Of course, some of the more venturesome misses would pinch their cheeks to make them pink, but they had never used rouge. That was around the time when they used 72 THE BLUE AND WHITE to wear leg-o'-mutton sleeves, and only one girl could get in front of me at a time, now-a-days two girls, and sometimes even three, will crowd together in front of me to powder their noses and rouge their cheeks and lips. Instead of asking, Have I got too much on? and wiping some off, these girls ask, Have I got enough on? and then they add some more to assure themselves that they have. Of' course the change was gradual, but everytime I think of the old days I really am shocked to see how times-and-girls- have changed. I know I can't stay on this wall much longer and I hope they won't put me up again when I fall, because it's hard work trying to reflect faces which will satisfy their owners after being on the job all these years. I had just walked in front of the mirror to see whether my imaginations had been playing tricks with me and when the mirror caught my reflection, it stopped talking and refused to say another word in spite of my pleadings, so I left it alone with its reminiscences. VIOLET JONES, '32, Heartache WHITEFACED and tense, she stoodg her beautiful, soul-stricken face pointed to Him. My God, she sobbed, I can't. I can't. They beg me to dance when he lies there still-my Billy boy, my love. God, where are you? Why did you take him? She turned savagely to the group of per- formers who stood pleading with her. How can you ask me, expect me to? You think I can go out to that crowd and dance with a smile on my face, music in my soul, with Billy dead? Go, go away, before I kill you! Her voice died to a whisper, she stood there crushed, beaten. You, with your talk of being a trouper! You, with your talk of carrying on the show! What does that matter? What does any- thing matter now? He's gone. Do you think I can ever dance again? Go, go, I tell you, and leave me alone! Yes, I know you're the manager and I, Rosita, who can charm the world with her dancing, whose dancing is her life. Can't you realize I'm human? Do you think I care more for my dancing than for him? She knelt down at the covered form and drew away the sheet from his face. Her gorgeous silver-white costume was crumpled about her 3 tremulous sobs shook her slender white shoulders, tears streamed down her cheeks as she pressed close to her heart the boyish face with its closed eyes. God, she whispered piteously, How could you? He was so young, so full of life. Take me, too. How can I go on without him? Mr. Cavern, manager of the show, stepped forward and gently pulled her to her feet, saying kindly, Rosita, he wouldn't want you to grieve like this. He'd want you to go on and dance, to help make the audience forget, and make the show a success. You know what a trouper he was, and how happy it would make him. Rosita, you'd always have it to remember that you, who loved him best of all, did the last thing on earth for him. Years later, when the pain has deadened a little, if you prove yourself a coward now, do you think you'll ever be happy again knowing that you failed? Think, Rosita, what it means! There was a dead silence, then Rosita said two letters, O. K., which conveyed a far greater meaning. The onlookers went out, their faces tender and glad. Mechanically, Rosita tied the ribbons of her little slippers, powdered her face, drew a pencil across bloodless lips. Her face was deathly paleg her mouth looked like a bloody gash against the pallor. Then with a quick movement she knelt again at the couch which bore such a tragic burden. When the curtain boy came to call her, he was startled to see the great Rosita, with a tender light in her eyes, humbly praying to Him for strength. Ready, Miss Rosita? he ques- tioned. An upward nod of her head was the answer, and Rosita stepped from the room. Everyone was encouraging her, clasping her hands, the hands of the greatest dancer of America. However, she scarcely saw them, gazing about with unseeing eyes. She stood offstage waiting, waiting for the baton to strike. It struck! When the curtain arose, the audience gasped with the beauty of Rosita. Ah, here was peace and beauty again, after the tragedy of the last act. The stage was enveloped in semi-darkness, free from gaudy scenery, for when the great Rosita danced, no draperies and brilliant color effects were needed. There in the center she stood, poised on the toe of one white slipper, clothed in white satin, and a soft silver light forming a sort of halo around her faultlessly beautiful head. She danced to the lilting strains of Nola, her twinkling feet moving about with little effort. Never, never in all the career of Rosita, had she danced so wonderfully. But little! did the audience know that underneath the painted little face, tears were raining, little did they THE BLUE AND WHITE 73 know that the joyous smile was frozen on her face as a mask for a broken heart. Rosita saw not the enraptured faces of the audience whom she must do all her power to pleaseg but she saw the face of her Billy, who fifteen minutes before, has missed the swinging rope, fallen to the stage below, and died with the name, Rosita, on his lips. DOROTHY PEARSON, '32. A Changed Illusion AS I sit by the cliffs and watch the sun go down, I see a view of unsurpassed beauty. The sea-what a mysterious, in- comparable thing! The large waves resemble the jaws of a great mad dog opening and then closing as if having swallowed their prey. At length the sun sets, and the grey mist prevails o'er the land. Looking along the sandy beach, I see the dim lights in the few distant houses, and I realize night has arrived. I hate to leave, but I must. Walking away, I glance at the vast horizon for a last, longing look. I can't believe my eyes! The great mad dog has gone-van- ished. Where is he? In his place I see a quiet little bay. It must be the sea-it is the sea, resting after a long day of work. It is so quiet, so peaceful, that I wonder why I had never noticed the other side of the sea's story. I see it no longer as a great greedy monster taking innocent lives without warn- ing or cause, and giving nothing in return but occasionally the pitiful bodies of its victims. No wonder people adore the sea! The moon, sending its rays upon the waters, reminds one of the guiding light in the eyes of a mother, watching o'er a slumbering babe. The distant waves, touching the shore, sound like a chant from the deep. As I turn again to go home, I am wondering, What is the song about, which the sea is humming to itself? MILDRED BRADY, '33. A The Club of 63 DURING the time of civil strife in Italy when the government was corrupt, tax- ing the people to the utmost on every neces- sity of life, a great many secret organizations began to spring up. At first these secret societies were organized for the sole purpose of ridding the country of undesirable nobles and officials of the king, but soon some of them began the practice of banditry. Never- theless, they kept in mind their primary purpose, to aid the poor, by robbing the rich. The king's spies constantly mingled with the poor in order to find out who were in these societies and where they met. Any- body having the slightest connection with any of these societies was immediately executed. Therefore, the organizations used great precautions in selecting their mem- ers. A count, disgusted with the corruption that existed among his fellow nobles, applied for admission to The Club of 633' This society was one of the most famous of its kind, reserving its membership to only sixty- three and filling a vacancy only after the death of one of its members. The new candidate had to go through sixty-three different tests, each one a dangerous task in itself. The count had withstood sixty-two of these tests and by passing the last one would become a full-pledged member. They took him to the outskirts of a town and entered an old castle abandoned by its owners because it was said that ghosts descended from the hills, now and then, and killed off a member of the household. They came into the cellar by means of a secret passageway and there formed a semi-circle around the count. The leader stepped forward, re- moved the bandage which had been around the eyes of the candidate, and gave him a candle, one inch long, a match, and a piece of chalk, saying: , Now comes your last test. If you succeed, you will become a full-fledged member. Go till you find a room in which lies a coffin. Open it, put a cross with your chalk on the head of the corpse, close the lid, and seal the coffin with some nails and a hammer which you will find nearby. Then come back here. With these words, a large stone was re- moved from the floor revealing a steep stair- case. The count descended and by the dim light of the torches above he could see great stone pillars and long passageways. He was now in the Catacombs of Rome! He lit his candle and started down the main passageway. Down and around he went. His flickering candle formed ghostly shadows on the great stone pillars. - For fifteen minutes he walked, now falling and twisting his ankle in a hole in the ground, now tripping over a large stone. Sometimes he hesitated as to whether he should continue or not. Finally he came to an abrupt stop. The passageway had come to an end. On all sides were walls, and he had not found the coffin. Giving up hope of finding it, he turned back when he suddenly noticed a small door on his right. He opened it and 74 THE BLUE saw a small room, in the center stood a table on which rested a wooden coffin. Ah! At last, he had found it. His candle was now very low, and he was forced to place it in the palm of his hand in order to keep it from burning his fingers. He opened the lid slowly and closed it immediately. In the coffin was a hideous corpse, its bulging eyes open and staring at the count. He opened the lid again quickly, shut the eyes of the corpse and put a cross on its forehead. On the shelf nearby he found a hammer and some nails. He began to nail down the lid of the coffin. The hammering reechoed through the room. The candle went out. He now hammered in total darkness. When the last nail had been driven, he put down the hammer with a sigh of relief. He now turned to depart. He took one step and felt a tugging at his coat. That was strange! A sudden fear over- came him. He turned to run. There came a crash! The count fell to the ground-then all was silent. A few hours had passed since the count had left them and the men were becoming impatient. Finally the leader ordered some men to fetch the count. When they arrived at the little room, they found him lying on the ground beside the coffin, the count was dead. His coat was nailed to the coffin. When he turned to go, he felt the coffin tugging at his coat. When he ran, he pulled the coffin over, causing the crash. The count had died of heart-failure! BERNARD OSTER, '31. The Mission THE mission room was dimly lighted and permeated with the foul odors of un- washed bodies and gin-soaked breaths. Both the odor and the dim lights combined to make the atmosphere of the room terribly depressing but the most depressing parts of the whole scene were the inmates of the room. They were as nondescript, filthy, and un- ambitious looking a group as one would ever care to see. They were of all races, colors, and ages, but, nevertheless, they all had one common characteristic-filth. Sprawled about a table in attitudes that only masters in the art of comfort-seeking could attain, were three typical specimens. The most striking of the three was a large Irishman-at least so his brogue indicated. About his powerful frame was draped a flannel shirt that was once a brilliant red, and a tattered pair of overalls. Upon his tremendous feet was a pair of shoes that had AND WHITE seen better days--far better days, in fact, because, peeping through their tips were his toes. But the most striking part of this large Hibernian was his head. A beautiful thatch of golden blond hair formed a halo around his face that would have been the proud possession of one of Hell's Angels. It was brick red in color, and evil in appear- ance. A crooked slash under a long, curved, red nose was all that he had for a mouth. When he smiled-or perhaps the proper description would be leered-long, yellow, stained fangs gave him a wolfish appearance. To balance his long nose, perhaps, a pair of fan-like ears stood out at right angles to his face. But the crowning touch to his 'gar- goyle-like visage was the most beautiful pair of deep blue eyes that I have ever seen. Large and luminous they were, fringed by long, curling blond eyelashes and when seen without noticing the rest of his face, they bore a look of the utmost candor and sweet- ness. What a study this man would make if his character were as strange as his devilish face with its beautiful hair and eyes! GEORGIA MCGUNNEGLE, '31. The Camping Trip ABOUT this time of year, there is an appalling lack of subject material stored away in the back of my head. The subjects concerning last summer were exhausted when December came along, and the things of winter are not interesting in the spring. How can one write of snow and sleds when one is thinking of green grass? Therefore, I am now writing, or trying to write, in that delightful study period on Thursday when you know that no classes will follow. Day- dreams seem to be the curriculum of the hour. My 'wandering thoughts are busy with my favorite occupations. Didn't we have a perfect time camping last summer? Ah! that's a topic heretofore unused 5 let us begin! ' For years I have belonged to that worthy organization, the Girl Scouts. I am afraid that my attendance these last few years has been due to our little camping trip dur- ing the summer. Although I find no fault with the Girl Scouts' organization, I believe it is primarily for younger girls from ten to perhaps fifteen years, as for older and mature girls it loses some of its attractiveness. However, in the town where my summer home is located, there is an unique group of girls. All are between the ages of fifteen and eighteen years inclusive and the number varies from seven to nine. What larks we THE BLUE AND WHITE 75 have during the summer! 'We take canoe trips and go on hot dog roasts, but our chief enterprise is the before-mentioned trip. Some day early in July, one of the members will raise the question at a meeting, When shall we go camping? Immediately all gathered will shout their opinions, and out of the chaos a date will be arrived at, not too far in advance. Everyone gathers necessary clothes and food. Finally we are off, piled in among Watermelons and luggage in the back of an open truck. I always hurry to get in first because the early bird catches the worm, the worm in this case being the seat from which you can dangle your feet over the back end, it's such fun! Everyone present brings forth a harmonica, and all become noisy. Last year we had a very busy sojourn. One of the outstanding features was a ten mile walk into the nearest village on a broil- ing hot day. I suffered more than the others, for I had foolishly worn a pair of shoes not fully broken in. What a nightmare! First I put on my shoes and then took them off. I really don't know which was worse, the burning hot sand of the road under-foot, or the blister-raising shoes. More pleasant was the treasure hunt at night by flashlight. It seemed as if the hunt covered miles. The moon rose while we hunted up and down the land bordering the Connecticut River near its mouth. From time to time we heard boats going by and saw red and green lights in the distance. There was some difficulty in finding the treasure in a cow pasture, as the person who had hidden it was not sure where it was herself. The treasure consisted of marshmallows and we all adjourned to the beach to eat them. The country about us is very interesting as it is the seat of an old band of Indians. The chief went by the name of Joshua and, on a high cliff, overlooking a wide expanse of the river, there is a stone resembling a chair called Joshua's Rock, where the old chief sat and gave his orders. Today one is able to find stone arrowheads at various places. The camping expedition ends all too soon.

Around the fire in the center of their little village, long-haired squaws were setting down strips of meat which the braves were bringing in daily from the hunting ground. The dusky- eyed young maidens were dressing the white doe skins and the sleek hides of deer. The village was alive with preparations for the winter. White Dove alone was unhappy. The fire had already gone out of her beautiful eyes although she had seen but nineteen winters. She was the chief's daughter, admired and sought by every brave in the tribe. But the unfortunate one had given her heart to only one, and he had been cruelly burned at the stake in a hostile village. That was three months ago, and since then, her healthy young form had been daily wasting away, her skillful hands lay idle, her dainty- mocassined feet no longer trod the verdant forest trails, her rightful place in the village activities was taken by aspiring lesser maidens. Nothing was of any interest to her now, and her father had long since given up the attempt to make her forget her loss. An old warrior had given her a war pony- she had ridden it once and turned it loose to fatten on the juicy grasses of a nearby field. A young brave had brought her a hostile chief's beautiful white warbonnet. She thanked him and hung it over her couch. An old squaw had made a priceless Wampum belt for her-she smiled and laid it aside forever. I When she died, those who loved her grieved deeply and buried her on a sloping green hill. Two moons after she was placed in the verdant, fragrant earth, a dusty warrior came hurriedly into the village. The chief, coming out of his Wigwam in the twilight, gazed upon the visage of the brave, and gasping, he stumbled forward. In a daze, he led the astonished man into the council lodge while his tribe gathered around, won- dering at the incoherent mutterings and grief-stricken sobs which came from within. Long, long they waited, but could solve nothing, so they returned to their tasks in silence. That night, the blood-red harvest moon looked down upon the sobbing figure of a young brave on a sloping green hill. ALMA THOMAS, '31. . Guide: Why didn't you shoot at that tiger? Timid Soul: Er-er, he didn't have the right kind of expression on his face for a rug. 76 THE BLUE AND WHITE . A Penny On A Street Car RIDING home from school one afternoon, I noticed a penny lying near the motor- man's feet. Thinking nothing of it, I turned my thoughts elsewhere. When the car stopped, a woman, who seemed to be of social standing, got up and paid her fare. As she was about to step off the car, she noticed the penny and, no doubt, stooped to pick it up. Looking at the motorman I noticed that his eyes twinkled and I waited to see what would happen. Madam, said the motorman, I don't think you dropped that penny. I beg your pardon, sir, said the woman, turning very red, but I was intending to give it to you. At that moment the patrons of the car broke into a hearty laugh. I didn't laugh because I was thinking how foolish I should have felt if it had been I instead of the woman who had picked up the penny. DoRoTHY GROSSMAN, '32, Title-Less A HIS head ached.

Their minds float back a few thousand years or more, and' on their brain screens are flashed vivid pictures of the siege of Troy. They can see Achilles as he chases Hector around the Walls of Troy, and they can see the flames licking at the body of Hector as he lies on the funeral pyre. They can see the corpse of Hector as it is being dragged around by Achilles, and the form of Helen as she stands on the wall. To them Homer represents the finest in poetry, but to me Homer means-as well, Babe Ruth! Moral: Homer may be Greek to you but its baseball to me.

Advice to Our Under Classmen WE seniors, before leaving the mighty bounds of Hope, have mutually decided to give those who will soon be seniors, the low-down on how we made good. Rather unselfish of us, don't you think? First of all, when the time comes, realize that you are a senior and the importance of this. Uphold your dignity to the highest degree. Be sophisticated. Be anything but inferior, even to the teachers 5 for if you will not have found out by this time that the teachers are more afraid of us than we are of TI-LE BLUE AND WHITE . 77 -them, take our word for it,-for our word, the word of us experienced seniors, can certainly be accepted without hesitation. Allow one to drift from the subject enough to say that if, by chance, you daremisbelieve anything any senior might say, read no farther, it would be a waste of time. Merely inform one of us-I mean us seniors-of the fact, and I feel assured that your mind will change. To get back to the subject.-Superiority.- It is the underlying feeling to possess. Let everyone know that -you are a senior. Do not be afraid of' coming late to class. If the teacher has nerve enough to remark on this, and you have not a ready list of excuses, any present senior would be glad to be- queath his to you. It will last the whole year. Only use it with discretion. For instance, your grandmother can have only one funeral. About lunch--if you are a particularly small person, just duck your head and climb under everyone, unseen, until you reach the department of the counter you desire. Do not be afraid of being stepped on. Carry a fork for a weapon and every foot that comes dangerously near can be set off track by a slight jab. Large persons have the greatest advantage in the lunch room because they have the longest reach. A word more.-Anyone interested in buying any second-hand junk such as spy glasses, skeleton keys, old notebooks, test tubes, pads, drawing materials or trots, see any senior between 8:30 and 2:30. DOROTHY MARKOFF, '31, That Old Stern-Wheeler I see the swishing waters run, I hear the whistle's song, The old stern-wheeler's 'round the bend- Hark! there's the captain's gong. A monarch of the river She proudly stems the flood And steams in perfect safety High o'er the treacherous mud. I see her now in retrospect, So swift and strong and large, Yet now she's nothing but a dreg- Just one more hulk or barge. Not many know her history. I'm proud to say I do, ' It's sad to see her in disgrace, This old steamboat I knew. But the days of speed are now at hand, And steamboats couldn't last, The old stern-Wheeler 'round the bend Is a relic of the past. A relic of those golden years Of Calhoun and of Clay, Those years that no one thinks of now, In the bustle of to-day. A pioneer in a vanished age, Old steam-boat 'round the bend, You leave to us a heritage, More worthy than your end. PHILIP M. SHIRES, '33. Thoughts at Eventide One hallowed hamlet set apart In solitude, I've seen. Where lies a monastery now- Clear, picturesque, serene. Saintly, the friars wander 'Neath a calm, blue sky above, Murm'ring to Heaven gently With unutterable love. 1 Hearing the chimes of evening And the vesper call to rest. Toil of the day is over, But their cloister comforts best. Oh, God, whose grace and mercy sweet Are with us, too, I Ween, Relieve the busy world its cares And teach me what I've seen.

BARNEY, '32. THE. BLUE AND WHITE 79 THE long, slanting rays of the earlymorning sun tipped the shiny, green leaves to silver and glistened on the brilliant blades of grass, still wet with dew. The flowers by the wayside opened sleepy eyes and drank thirstily. The birds in the treetops chirped and twittered good-mornings to each other. A beautiful spring day was just beginning- who knew what it might hold! Along the country road, not yet dusty from sun and footsteps, tramped a solitary traveler. He was a boy of about sixteen years, with a strong, healthy body and a face tanned and weatherbeaten. His clothes were worn, but clean, and his dark, curly hair had been combed, if it did need a trim. Fm glad, he said aloud, to no one in particular, but to the world at large, I'll be home to-morrow. Home! Home, home, home! His heart sang it and his feet kept time to the happy rhythm. Home-that little white farm- house, with Mother in the kitchen. Mother- gosh, she'd be glad to see him even if Dad Weren't. It was almost a year, now. Guess he was a farm boy at heart, he'd settle down now and work hardy that would please Dad. Gee, to-morrow night he'd sleep in that little bed in his own little room under the eaves. He'd get up to one of Mother's good breakfasts. Maybe Dad- His thoughts were interrupted by the sound of a car behind him-maybe he could get a lift. He held up his hand. The auto- mobile stopped and a cheerful young man said: Want a lift? Hop in. They were both talkative and were soon well acquainted. There was not another car in sight 3 they sped down the country road. A railroad crossing-suddenly, the shrill whistle of the train just around the curve. We can make it, yelled the young man. The boy felt a chill creep over him, saw the train upon them. It hit the back of the car and both occupants were hurled from it. The boy's head was crushed 3 he never regained consciousness. The little bed in the little room under the eaves was still empty.

CHAMPIONSHIP DEBATING TEAM 80 THE BLUE. AND WHITE l V ORCHESTRA THE season of 1930-1931 rounds out the second year in which the orchestra at Hope Street High School, under the direction of Mr. Roger W. P. Greene, has been scheduled on a five-day a Week fully credited, elective basis, and the results as compared with the old system have more than justified the inclusion of this course in the curriculum. 'S The year has been a particularly active one, the orchestra -having been called upon to provide programs for many public affairs of importance. Among these Was the Annual Banquet of the R. I. Congress of Parents and Teachers, held at the State Armory in J anuaryg Fathers' Night of the Parent-Teachers Association at both the Hope Street and John How- land Schools, the Annual Christmas play at Hope Street, graduation exercises of the Provi- dence Evening High Schoolg Annual Orchestra Contest at Cranston 5 broadcast over W E A N to inaugurate Better Homes Weekg invited to accompany the first all N. E. High School Cho- rus of 260 singers in its concert at Infantry Hall, May 3, and in June the participation in the concert at the Temple of Music in Roger Williams Park, together with the orchestras of the other High Schools. Seven members of the orchestra were invited to play in the All Eastern High School Orchestra in Syracuse, and eighteen members held places in the New England Festival Orchestra in Boston. As a whole, the organization may Well be proud of the place it has occupied in the Com- munity and of its very Willing contributions to the musical enjoyment of the city. THE BLUE AND WHITE 81 CAST OF SENIOR PLAY AND SENIOR SOCIAL COMMITTEE Hath Any Ram Slipped From the Fold ACRGSS the endless stretch of smooth, green meadow-land, a cloud of dirty, brown sheep were seen travelling, stopping to nip the fresh, juicy grass as they were driven onward by several dusty, perspiring riders. The dry dust and the stench from the sheep burned the noses and throats of the drivers, and they were glad to be near home again. About ten miles and their job would be over. But their hardest job lay ahead of them. They had to descend a cliff, and they had to go down in one spot where the bank was less precipitous. At the head of the herd, trotted an old ram, head lowered, short horns ready to push back into line any young rams who wished to lead. Off to the West menacing storm-clouds of the nearer hovered in the air. Every clip-clop small hoofs was bringing the sheep home. About a mile from the cliff, a streak dusty of forked lightning sliced the thick, air and the storm was on. The ewes, bleating and bawling, huddled close to their mothers, wet and shivering, cold and bedraggled. To make things worse, night fell. The sheep were terrified. A huge tree, struck by lightning, fell, killing two of the sheep, and the herd started stampeding towards the cliff carrying the riders as on the crest of a wave. The man fought to clear but they were like chips in a hurricane. One of the men put a bullet through his head, preferring that to a five hundred foot drop and death on the rocks below. Then. to my surprise and chagrin, I read, To Be Continued in Next Week's Publication of The Western Story M agazvlfnef' ROBERT CosGRovE, '31, .lg-,li Hath Met the Virtue of This Magic Dust I'M awake!

Who noted the lightning change that called forth the chorus of peepers in the swamps, that summoned the feathery hosts from the southland? Every robin is bursting his tiny throat with melody. Every bud is straining its bonds to break forth and greet the sun, that great heavenly warmth that means life and happiness to all nature. There's a mystic spell in the airg there's ecstacy in our hearts g and there's a bubbling song on our lips as We greet the joy of another Spring. ELEANOR L.

With the loss of many veterans Coach Taylor had to rebuild his eleven. George Kanofsky showed a great improvement in his playing and was awarded a first team position as tackle on the Journal Interscholastic League team. The Evening Bulletin chose Leonard Strass- berg as second team end. The Blue and White arose perhaps to its greatest heights on Thanksgiving by scaring Technical before losing out 13-7 . Hope started off in good style by making a touchdown on a pass from Mickey Korkuc to Captain Kelleher. After scoring the extra point Hope held Tech to one touchdown and robbed them of the extra point. The unfortunate break which lost the game for Hope came when Mailloux intercepted a pass and scored Toch's second touchdown. The features of the game were the great line plunging of Korkuc and Jack Cashman, the end runs of Jimmy Croce and the hard charging of the whole line. Following are the lettermen: Captain Kelleher, Considine, Strassberg, Rigby, Croce, Kanofsky, Carragher, Korkuc, Cashman, Fascitelli, Broder, Quirk, Zisquit, Gurwitz, Quirk, Clark. 84 THE BLUE AND WHITE HOCKEY DURING the 1930-1931 Hockey season the Hope team gave the spectators plenty of excitement and although the final standing was not very high, some comfort can be found in the uncovering of new material for the next season. Throughout the schedule Captain John Nolan's Work at defense was of steady quality, and he often worked up the ice for brilliant solo dashes. The veterans, Ralph Wholey, Bob Manchester and Russ Macdonald did great work on the wings and Pud Quirk, who was ineligible the year before, played equally well. Newcomers who showed promise on the forward line for the future were John Glenn and Chet Callahan. George Wood played the other defense post until injured, and then his place was capably filled by Ed McGuinness. Joe Swift as goalie turned in a consistent game all season. John Nolan and Pud Quirk received 2nd places on the Evening Bulletin All-Star Teams. The following are lettermen: Captain Nolan, Macdonald, Swift, Wholey, Rigby, Quirk, Manchester, Callahan, Wood, McGuinness, Glenn, Stites, Baillie, Manager Colton. THE BLUE AND WHITE 85 BASKETBALL EVERY year, the Hope Basketball tives practice hard and play in many close games. Having no real home court they are forced to play home engagements at the City gym across the city. It is probably this fact that cuts down the attendance of Hope rooters. Despite this handicap of small support this year's team, coached by Mr. Davis, put on some fine games and seemed to improve a great deal towards the end of the season. Captain Williams lead the team in total scoring. He started on the forward line but was shifted to a guard position where his presence was much felt. Tierney, another veteran, was always in there and was high scorer until about the middle of the schedule when he was unable to play. Lewis Allan, a junior, contributed some fine passwork and made the most of his heiglht fat center. Although not as accurate a basket shooter, Pinderhughes was very fast on t e oor. As in the case of other teams our future hopes are raised by such Sophomore stars as Abrams, Marden, Yosinoff and Gurwitz. They all did fine work and showed much promise. The standing of the team in sixth place in a field of eight is not startling but the fact re- mains that all games lost, excepting Pawtucket, were lost by not more than three points, and Hope had a higher total score than the total score of opponents. With lack of veterans Mr. Davis has now started a nucleus for a veteran team next year. The following earned letters: Captains Williams, Tierney, Allan, Gurwitz, Marden, Yosinoff, Cohen, Abrams, and Manager Cosgrove. 86 TI-IE BLUE AND WHITE W ,HW INDOOR TRACK ALTHCUGH Hope's representatives on the track did not fare as well as their 1930 predeces- sors, nevertheless, they pushed their opponents hard. Our spirits rose the highest at the annual Y. M. C. A. meet where Hope barely missed winning the cup permanently. The class meets and class iinals went, as usual, to Tech, their large reserve of students being the main reason for this. The Armory meets were rather disappointing to Hope supporters, but the fellows all did great work. In the city meet Willard Carr's great race as anchor man in the relay was a feature. Starting with a handicap of more than ten yards, he regained more than half that distance. In the State Meet, with La Salle and Moses Brown to cut still more into our points, Hope managed to place fourth. The work of Carr and Cashman who ran in the dash, ran two hard heats in the three hundred, and then ran the relay was noteworthy. All in all the track season can not be called a failure -and the boys all have had the satisfaction of doing their best. The lettermen this year were as follows: Captain Lewis, Carr, Powers, Cashman, Caton, Fairchild, Loughran, Spicer, Mullen, Bernstein and Serge. THE BLUE AND WHITE 87 GIRLS' SWIMMING TEAM THE Girls' Swimming team won for the fourth consecutive time the inter-city girls' high school swimming Championship, held at Braman Pool, Olneyville Boys' Club on April 1. Hope nosed out Commercial, its nearest competitor, with a score of 37 points, winning three out of the five first places. The twenty yard free style was won by Winifred Toy, who was closely followed by Roberta Hoar, who tied with Commercial for second place. The forty yard back stroke was Won by Kathleen Bushnell, who also scored second place in the breast stroke. The forty yard free style was a close match between Zelda Fisher and Florence McVay, but with a final spurt near the finish, the former was Victorious. Lois Tucker, former diving champion, was surpassed by Commercial, but she captured second place for Hope. The relay team consisting of the Misses Fisher Ccaptainb, McFay, Hoar and Toy, swam away With the relay, adding the final stroke to Hope's victory. I THE BLUE AND WHITE 1930 -' BB!

U THE BLUE AND WHITE 93 VVhat l have Learned on The Blue and VVhite Board MY humble position as Advertising Man- ager of the Blue and White for 1931, has taught me lessons which no course in the regular curriculum could have imparted. At the beginning of this year, I set out to help finance a worthy and much-loved school publication, at the same time realizing the chance that was mine for experience in the business world. Full of hope and energy but totally ignorant of business methods, I had to devise my own code of rules, and it was not long before I discovered that the A B C of salesmanship is Always Be Cour- teousg that it takes tact to know how to approach successfully people of vastly differ- ing temperaments, to be gently forceful but persistent, and that it is an art to extract money painlessly for advertising from a man whose only topic of conversation seems to be the business depression. My first one thousand dollars has been earned at Hope Street High School and is the result of 250 advertisements representing 125 telephone calls, 50 business letters, and Cbe- lieve it or notj 900 personal interviews though many placed have required repeated visits before an advertisement has been secured. How much shoe leather I wore out pounding the city pavements I shall leave you to guess, but in this way my cobbler gave great support, not only to my feet, but also to our magazine. One genial florist really did say it with flowers when he donated a small bunch of roses, plus a large amount of sympathy, minus an advertisement. In one or two of our Providence theatres I was given complimentary passes, an opportunity to see broadcasting done, an occasion when I met three of four outstand- ing actors, and a liberal ad. One barber, who charges twenty-five cents per hair-cut, agreed to take some space if I would sell my friends enough tickets to cover the expense of the advertise- ment. Needless to say, his name is not among our pages. A Recently, a garrulous woman who con- ducts an exclusive dress shop, explained to me how much the depression has affected her and even volunteered to supply my graduation clothes if I could bring her fifteen customers. Her name, also, is among the missing. However, often I have made my way into dark and dingy offices only to find loquacious old men who, in an effort to tell me about their all too evident bankruptcy, have given me a clear conception of the times from 1870 to date. I might add,-no ad! Innumerable men and women seem to mistake me for Mary of Mary and Bob fame, judging from the interesting ,true stories confided to me from time to time. To these an obscure school-girl like me is usually unaccustomed, but, I repeat, they have taught me lessons of life which no text- book has yet revealed. All in all, the Big Adventure has had its compensations and satisfactions, in spite of the work involved. It has given me a self- confidence and a poise in my dealings which I feel will stand by me for a lifetime. k MARJORIE MCCABE, '31, I Advertising M cmager. , Girls! Ge!

Probably no extra-curricula activity is as exciting or helpful in later life as managing this magazine which has a definite place in Hope life. First, I want to thank Mr. Harry A. Jager, our Principal, who by his friendly interest, loyal support, and co-operation has helped to make this year most successful. Next, to the Faculty Advisers, who have assisted immeasurably in the publication of this magazine, I wish to express my deepest thanks. I have enjoyed everything connected with publishing this book and the thrill of watch- ing it take form has been a lasting experience. I wish now to thank the board, each one of whom has done more than his share to make the magazine a success. To every one who has either by contribution to our pages or by paid subscription assisted us, I express my deepest gratitude. This year the Blue and White has been very successful financially, as well as in other ways, and I believe, although business conditions have been of the poorest, our profits exceed those of the last few years. As agreed on by the board, my last ofiicial act as Editor-in-Chief is the announcement of the dispostion of the money. To the Hope Street High School Athletic Association, the Blue and White very happily presents one hundred dollars to be used in any manner the Athletic Council sees fitg to the Hope High Library, one hundred dollars for the purchase of new books, and to the R. I. Scholarship Fund, fifty dollars. J oHN F. NOLAN, '31, Editor. JOSEPH L. MCDUNALD Prescriplion Druggist Cor. Lloyd and Elmgrove Avenues Providence, R. I. tPlease Patrouize Oufr Advertisers.
