ABE JOE Age 19 New England Institute of Embalming Meet the Dean the bo from Ro er Williams Junior Hi h Y 2 S who has majored in friendship during his stay at Hope. Wal- ter's ability in the classroom and on the track and gridiron is proof that good things come in small packages. I'm sure that Abe's smile and intelligence will prove definite assets in his future life. Football, 3, 4: Track, 2, 3, 4. ALBERT H. ACORN AL Age 17 Brown A grand personality, a remarkable intelligence, and an excel- lent character distinguish Albert as one of Hope's most illustri- ous sons. Aside from his scholastic achievements, he has gained renown in leadership, as President of the Hope Players, and Vice- president of the senior class. Accompanying his intelligence is a certain amount of wit, which he uses to a great advantage in studying Latin. He has a personality that is seldom equalled.

ADAMS MOE Age l7 Brown No chain of adjectives can duly describe the real Charles. But just picture a swell guy with a perpetual smile, a keen sense of humor fand rhythml, a knack of learning much with little effort, and about 70 inches of personality connecting his hair and toes. Many's the time he's proved himself a friend in need to a classmate in distress. Usually conservative, Moe occasion- ally blares a hot tune on his trumpet to ease his overflowing rhythm. Cross Country, 45 Latin Club, 45 Slide Rule Club, 4. MARGARET ADAMS PEGGY Age 18 Katharine Gibbs Look who's here-Margaret, known to many as Peggy! She struggles along with her studies in a modest, unassuming man- ner but always makes the grade. She is kind-hearted and .always happy when she can help her classmates. Her aim is for secre- tarial work, and I am sure she will make good, Best wishes, Peg. - .i BLUE AND WHITE +l,.T. .l, Q 3 ,pf S sill' . -l-Tl.. ' as , l 1 mln. i C .

C-Camelias so rare, and so is our Nana, A-Ageratum so sweet, and so is our classmate, M-Marigolds so mild, and so is our pal, I--Iris so friendly, and so is our friend, L-Lilies so statelv, and so is Camille, L-Lilacs so graceful and cheery as Nana, E--Ending our garland, Nana, we all join in wishing you a brilliant future and may you some day bear the title Tennis Star . Tennis, Z, 3. ELEANOR ALDRICH Age l7 Katharine Gibbs Tall, blond, and very charming-these are very suitable words to describe Eleanor. With her witty expressions, sparkling blue eyes, and contagious laugh, we know she will never be lacking in friends. Eleanor came to us from Cranston in her junior year, and during that time she has made an outstanding record. With such a pleasing personality she can be assured of success in whatever she undertakes. Hope Log Collector, 4, Home Room Banker, 2, 3. ANNE MARIE ALLEN Age 16 St. Luke's Hospital We liked her when she entered, She stayed: we liked her more: Round her our interests centered, ,She's still a favorite, for- She always will support us, She's loyal to a friend, She's ours, and though time may part us, We'll love her to the end. Biology Club, I, 2. JEAN FRANCES ANDERSON FRECKLES GIGGLES Age 16 R. 1. C. E, From Killingly High School, Danielson, came a diminutive senior to Hope. She is so small as to be taken for a freshman, much to her indignation, But, Jean says, small packages often contain the best things. This saying is proved by her ability in French and chemistry where she is equalled by few and excelled by none. Because of her willingness to help others and her loyalty to her Alma Mater, she is very popular with every- one. Baseball, lg Glee Club, 25 Dramatics, 2, 3. .i.?..-.BLUE AND WHITE AGNES ANGELL BUNNY Age 18 Business Who is that hazel-eyed miss, busily twining her way down the crowded Hope corridor? Agnes, of course, and, whereever her destination, she'll make it. Chuck full of life and Dep, she radiates cheer throughout the gloomiest day. Agnes came to us last September, and duwig her short stay has succeeded in mak- ing many friends. She loves to dance, and has become quite a singer of the swings. Success is Agnes' goal, and our parting wish to her means more than just Good-bye. ERMA BEVERLY ANTHONY Age 17 Katharine Gibbs In proof of the statement: Gentlemen prefer Brunettes, we take pleasure in presenting Erma. There are not words sufficient to describe her. She is vivacious and good-natured, never sad. always glad. Erma has a bit of sophistication in her make-up that makes her different. She is an excellent scholar, indulges in mild sports. and sings a delightful soprano.

ARNOLD DOT Age 17 Katharine Gibbs Against established precedent let's wish Dot lots of luck and Jaappiness now instead of later, for her success is a foregone con- clusion. But now for Dot herself. Perhaps a little hard to know at first, she possesses those qualities that soon win us over and make for fast friendship. The piano is another forte and, lf music be the food of love , play on, Dot, for you will find many willing listeners. ESTHER NANCY ASCHETTINO Es Age 18 Business A dash of independence, a touch of sophistication, oodles of humor, and a winning smile go around and around, and what comes out?-A'Our Lady Esther. In spite of her reserved man- ner, she is sincere in all her ways, and many are proud to call her their best friend. During her stay at Hope, Esther has ex- celled in a business course, especially in shorthand. Her ambi- tion is to be a private secretary, and we certainly envy the busi- ness man who employs her. Tennis, Z, 3. BLUE AND WHITE+,..,1 KEMPER ATWATER KEMP KEMPY Age 17 M. I. T. Well, folks, here's that charming young fellow from Seekonk who, by his twinkling eyes and infectious chuckle, has won the hearts of all at Hope. Result-president of senior class. This boy can always be found in a group of Admiresses when he isn't in the company of the other two members of the '37 edi- tion of The Three Musketeers. Reason-he has one of the best combinations of intelligence, good looks, personality, good nature, and tennis-playing of anyone you will see for a long time.

MURIEL ELAINE AUGUSTINE Age 17 Bryant College Chestnut hair, a flashing smileg Personality that goes a mile. In our midst we have a petite miss who has a pleasing charm which brings her popularity, Elaine has the rare faculty for making lasting friends among both students and teachers at Hope. Babe is extremely interested in dancing, reading, art, driving cars, and a certain blue-eyed Don Juan. Although the forego- ing take up most of her time, she never neglects her studies. A successful business career is assured her. Glee Club, Z, 3, 4,' Automobile Club, 4, Secretary of Skat- ing Club, 4g Secretary to Mr. Green, 4, Poster Club, 4,- Hope Log, 4. IRENE AVEDISIAN RENE AVI Age 17 R. I. Academy for Hairdressers She's cheerful. If you've got a pet peeve, just let her nurse you out of it. She's full of vitality: it peeps out of her rather naughty eyes and her smiling mouth. She's witty and smooth: invitations to every swing session in town prove that. Elaine, Erma, and Avi are the Three Musketeers of Hope. We pity anyone who doesn't know this gay, gallant member of Hope's smart set. Like a ginger snap, the more you get, the more you want.

ALBERT BACUR AL Age 17 Notre Dame Al is one of the most popular boys in the senior class. His popularity is due to his sunny disposition. Because of his ster- ling qualities, and because he is an all-round good fellow. Al has made a host of friends. Fun-loving, he brightens many a dull moment with his humor, We feel sure that these charac- teristics will react favorable upon his future career at Notre Dame.

She is very seri- ous at times and seemingly indifferent to her surroundings. Little is known of Kay, but to those who do know her, she is kind, thoughtful, considerate. and sincere. She likes pretty clothes, candy, and dancing. May good luck and happiness come to one so deserving! Glee Club, 1. FREDERICK J. BARROWS FRED Age l7 College There is no need to introduce Fred, as he is known and liked by everyone. To be in his company for a short while is all that's necessary to discover his flne personality and talents. There is always a laugh with a winning smile. He is an ardent musi- cian and has played his clarinet in both orchestra and band. Fred is planning to go to college, and we wish him loads of luckl Keep them smiling, Fred!

EVA BELLEMORE EVE Age 17 Homeopathic Hospital To know her is to love her, Who is this charming miss with the big blue eyes and wavy hair? Shelis none other than our Eve, one of the popular mem- bers of the class. Underneath that cool dignity, which she as- sumes, we have one of the most lively and fun-loving young ladies. Her horoscope reveals a happy future, and the stars them- selves will doubtless twinkle whenever she is around. So long, Eve, and may success greet you in carloads. il..-,BLUE AND WHITEMM - -i. 1l xitlfff -...i-.l..T. l ..

Who is going to help us with our Art work? Whom shall we be able to joke with? Yea and verily, life will be indeed very dull. Whether you choose a career in further education or in matri- mony, may you carry on as cheerfully as you did here at Hope. Your Former Classmates MYER BENNETT MIKE Age 17 Bryant College Hold it, folks! Don't forget this Hopeite. Myer Bennett, known to his friends-and he has made many-as just plain Mike. Mike practices the doctrine, A friend in need is a friend indeed, and he always has a smile and a word of cheer for every- one. Mike doesn't talk too much, but what he says is worth hearing. Business is his chosen Held, and he has the makings of a very proficient executive. We know that he will succeed, and we wish him the best of luck. LILYAN BENOIT Age l7 Katharine Gibbs Five feet three, with sparkling blue eyes, possessing a mag- netic personality, a contagious smile-she is humorous and good natured, a true member of her class, with an unquestionable flare for making friends-Lilyan is always the same genial, happy girl, who shines all year round. We know she will be a success in her future role of secretary. Baseball, 25 Skating Club, 4: Tennis, 2. MARY C. BERGMANN Age 17 R. I. C. E. Why introduce Mary?

BEVERLY ROSLYN BILLINCOFF Age 18 Business College You may as well stop on this page, her interesting features will compel you to, sooner or later. She's one of our most at- tractive girls. Naturally curly, her red hair is a flag in the dis- tance: a bespeckled freckled nose, a lilting song on her smiling lips+arid you have Bevy. Chic is the word for it, when she emerges in any outfit of her choice. Well, Red, you're going out into the cruel. cruel world-but we're sure you'll find the best it has to offer.

A sparkling smile-three quick running steps. There you have Margie running down the hall. Through her quick thinking and Irish wit, Marge has been the ringleader of many funny episodes here at Hope, This tall, dark-haired girl, besides being one of the best scholars in the business depart- ment, is a lover of sports: and a game wouldn't be a game with- out the presence of Margie, Kay, and Maddy. Well, so long, Blackie, and we wish you the best of luck in the future. CHARLES BLAZER CHARLIE Age l7 Brown Charlie is the unobtrusive chap who answers all the classroom questions with such dexterity. His mentality is of the highest calibre, and his graduation will mean a distinct loss to Hope. He has been always ready to lend a helping hand to some student plagued by some difficult problem. It is Charlie's cherished am- bition to make some scientific discovery that will benefit man- kind. I am sure that some day he will reach the goal he is seek- ing and distinguish himself and his Alma Mater. Biology, 2, 3, 4g Secretary, 3. ROBERTA ELEANOR BLISS BOBBY BERTA Age 17 Pembroke Never was there anyone equal to our Bobby. In appearance she is a tall, slim, dark-haired girl with a dreamy mouth and .a devil-may-care glint in her eyes. And the things the woman knows! She understands everything from logarithms to Rus- sian sadistsg and as for her clothing,-I Some day, not so far off, we'll be proud to say, I went to school with the Roberta!

Also, see him dribbling up the basketball court about to score the winning basket, or four months later see him speeding around the base paths after swatting a triple in deep right field-well, the guy cheering loudest from the bench is Bill. Bill is truly I-Iope's premier sport fan as well as one of the leading tooters in the band and orchestra. He swears, however, that the school must go on without him!

BLOOMBERG SHELL Amid chuckles and giggles there's Shell, cracking wise again If an exceptionally hyena-like laugh is heard, it's Shell's. H can be serious at times, however, but said times are few .and far between. Afternoons Shell is vaulting at Hope field. We ad- mire him for his skill in this. When he isn't at the field. he's playing a smashing ping pong game. We of the 'Agang will miss Shell and his good nature and wish him luck in the future. .- .BLUE AND WI-lITE,..l,E,, Age 18 Brown J' Track, 2,3 4. JOHN M. BOREJKO Age 20 R. C. A. Institute John is that tall, humorous boy, who is always doing a good deed, plaguing his neighbors, making a radio, or enjoying himv- self. When one is first introduced to him, he gives the impression of being quiet, but that impression is soon erased when one gets to know him. One of his good deeds is carrying an extremely heavy load of books for a small friend of his and letting her carry his extremely light one. He is usually seen writing a last minute composition about a subject the teacher knows nothing about, thus being able to get a good mark. MEREDITH BOWKER MERRY Age I8 R. I.

She is also connected with many outside activities that take up much of her time. Here's hoping that Ve obtains a good position in the business world as she really has her mind set on becoming someone's stenog. RICHARD DUGDALE DICK DEACON Age 18 R. I. State College Who is this tall, dark, and handsome mystery called Dugdale? His host of friends will vouch for his fine, clean character and his shining personality. He's a rusty old salt, with each breeze that blows, sailing up and down Narragansett bay in his Snow- bird. Cast a glance at some of his trophies some time. In addition to his sailing, he also drives an ark-a big, green Hud son with which he entices the girls and worries the police. We are sure he will be very successful along life's road.

DUNN JUNIE KING ED Age 18 Brown Valiant may be the Word for Carrie, but the girls have their own words for Ed-blond, debonair, and oh, so smooth-He may seem shy and reticent to most people, but to us that know him Ed really has his moments. Ask a short, dark-haired girl who roams these hallowed halls her opinion, and you will have the slightly exaggerated opinion of the majority. Cute, eh what! D.-DMHMBLUE AND cWHITE MOREEN DUNN SANDRA Age I8 R. I. State College Even if Sandra had no physical charm fm-ake no mistake, she has plentyj, she could be well-liked for her generosity. Danc- ing holds no charm for this young lady as she prefers, operas, concerts, and symphonies. Likeable, unconventional, and com- pletely frank, Sandra is bound to go far. It is unnecessary to wish this pal luck, for with her alert mind and intelligence, she does not need it. We will wish you happiness at R. I. State and hope you have a grand time at Arizona Tech Senior Week next year. EILEEN A. DURKIN Age 17 Undecided Identification Tag: Large dimple in left cheek.

Thinks most men are worms. Almost always has the last word in an argument. WILLIAM DWYER BILL Mow Age I9 McGill Bill or Mow, as we know him, is built to the ground. This does not seem to hinder him much in his favorite game, hockey. For the last two years Mow has been a regular on the Hope team. Bill's endeavors have been many in sports: baseball, football, and, of course, hockey. It also is rumored about th-at Mow doesn't do too badly with a certain feminine Hopeite. We wish him good luck in McGill, where Mow intends to figure in many more hockey wars. Hockey, 2, 3. 4. EMILY EDWARDS LEE Age 17 R. I. School of Design Lee is definitely the leader of the outstanding group at Hope, not because she has every physical attribute worthy of mention, but because she possesses all the qualities of a loyal friend. Of course, like all mortals, Lee has failings-a distinct aversion to cats, an overwhelming passion for Mexican Chihuahua, and a stubborn conviction that, at the tender age of six, she showed great artistic ability. However, because everyone likes Lee, we overlook these trifles and remember her as one of the sweetest girls they ever knew. Hope Log, 4: Social Committee, 4.

Morris plans to enter Wentworth Institute, and we may be sure he will succeed in whatever he is planning to undertake. wrestling, 2, 3. CLAIRE PAIRBANKS Age 16 Business Did I hear a giggle? Well, if I did, three to one, I know the name of the girl that's behind it. It's Claire. If you don't know Claire, you have missed one of the sweetest kids in our class.

Claire is undecided as to her future, but we know she will succeed in whatever she undertakes to do.

His brilliant dashes have spurred Hope to victory many times. l07-004 can often be seen parked at Hope Field. A glance on the field and we find Ben tossing a baseball which is the envy of many friends. But Ben isn't all play. His ability to play the trumpet and his excellent knowledge of business will surely bring him success, and Hope knows he will be among her successful alumni.

She is known from one end of the corridor to the other as a scholar. with a song always on her lips. Although she appears to be very demure, don't let that deceive you, for underneath her calm- ness there is plenty of fun and sparkle, especially if you really know her.

Although apparently quiet and demure, she loves fun. Are you, too, looking for something exciting to happen? This is Betty's pet saying. You have never seen anyone blush so sweetly before. It is embar- rassing, though, this blue-eyed, wavy-haired lady, herself, admits. In her is the embodiment of all that make an ideal Hopeite: good looks, plenty of school spirit, high marks, and a full social calendar. It is separation from a girl like her that makes grad- uation sad. GEORGE FRANCIS Age 18 College Persevering, studious, reticent-all these adjectives describe George. Although one of the quieter members of our class, George is one who is always ready to aid anyone, and, through this trait, he has made many permanent friends. As George has attained good grades in all his various studies, he surely will excel highly in the field which he has chosen to enter.

ARTHUR ALFRED HELGERSON ART ARTY Age 18 Brown Voted by all his classmates the cleverest fellow in the class, this member of The Three Musketeers easily lives up to his title and then some.

Ginnie also excels in history-a talent she acquired at the Abbie Loveland Tuller School before she entered Hope. Her expressive eyes are a clue to the depth of character and personality which have won her more than moderate success in studies, dancing, tennis, and in gaining the favor of a certain Brown Junior. KENNETH HINDERSINN FLASH DIPPY KEN Age 16 Business Crash! Slam! Bang! Don't be frightened, it's only Dip. one of the quietest CU members of our class, having an argument with Johnnie over some geometry problems. Dip has been very popular with both sexes during his three-year stay at Hope. His favorite subject is geometry, and, of course, you immediately know his favorite teacher. Other activities have kept Dip out of sports, but this year he ran very successfully on the track team. The best of luck, Dip. Track. 4. i I i SAMUEL H.

He wields a snappy pen and has the peculiar ability to write exactly what he means.

One hardly knows how to express his sportsmanship, good-nature. and wit. Another thing--he's an excellent dish-washer as well as dog-bather. To say nothing of his dancing would be unfair. Bob's main interest, however, lies in a tall, slender, blonde maiden who is P-G'ing here at Hope. Does she still Hate you? French Club, 3, 4, Rifle Club, 35 Automobile Club, 35 Track, 3.

Three years full of a maximum of laughs and a mini- mum of work, leaving behind one of the best records ever compiled by any class. How we hated being put in the Annex where many of us had just fin- ished three years of Junior High. Scotty Taylor was our immediate Princi- pal, and we can thank him for plenty of breaks. Soon we had our first rally: Mr. Jager addressed us for the first time.

In the afternoon, the track team won a M pt. victory over Moses Brown in the Y. M. C. A.

KEMPER ATWATER 37 The Last Smile Due to future absence, President Atwater, on behalf of the Senior class, takes this opportunity to wish each and every one of you a very merry Christ- mas. Confidential: Mr. Stannard says that he will never order any pupil to do a thing that is not in the line of duty, but will ask him if he would mind do- ing it. Our advice is never to say, No . This graduation will remove our editor and also one of Miss M. Collins' troubles. Many say that Dick Gigger and Shirley Sawyer look somewhat alike. We've heard of the results of close association before. After seeing the long list of those who have been admitted to the honor society, we have decided that it would be cheaper to give pins to the people who missed. Despite the fact that it is Spring, we can't name ten visible romances in the school. Of course, some are going on outside the walls. If you don't believe us, take a ride down to Barrington Parkway some night. Notice has been served by two Seniors that Grace Sanford and Kay Lovett of the Junior class are not to be considered as possible romances in the next year. Nelson Harris indignantly denies that he throws anything but the javelin. Hope Simpson denies that she is a red-head. Anything Hope says is okey with us. George Hurley has promised to try to overcome his shyness while at Brown. When the new school is finished, the covers of the desks in the old will be preserved and used as relief maps. Beer jacket enthusiasts will kindly remember the short life of knock knocks . Miss Slack says that the success of the Senior play depended on the hard work of the performers at rehearsals. Our sympathy, Miss Slack. Assistant Director of Athletics, Paul Knauer, is leaving with this class. We suggested Benny Goodman for the Senior dance, but were turned down. Bet Goodman was hurt. Now that Peg M'Carthy is leaving, classes won't be discontinued during the collection of absence slips. They hoisted a flag when the steel work on the new school was finished. They should have flown it upside-down: the place certainly looks a wreck. It's a boy at Louise Martin's. The boy is Charles Schwartz. We have Mr. Stannard's word that there will be no detention for those who are late for graduation. I The regular Loew's program will not be included in the graduation exer- cises. In parting may we say that the only thing that will keep us from going anywhere is not having anywhere to go. ROBERT MEEHAN, '37.

Kemper Atwater, senior president, plays a wee bit of clever piano and is a skilled tennis player, besides. However, his favorite hobby, during the daytime, is collecting insects and small reptiles, a game at which he is quite adept. Speaking of officers, Albert Acorn, deft little vice-president, plays a mean piano himself, besides being able to solve any crossword puzzle written. A certain generally acknowledged man-about-town, who owns the dirtiest pair of white shoes, turned up at the end a la sixteenth century, recently turned up at a friend's house all dressed up for a date.

CNot copyrighted, 1937. by any syndicatej ARTHUR SPEAR, '37 97 Hope High Hope is a friendly school where everyone knows everyone else. The great lower halls and old auditorium are perfect gathering places, where countless friendships have been formed. The atmosphere of the school has mellowed for forty years and is full of life. This atmosphere can't be copied and will be lost when the new school is put into use. Hope is personal and covered with the signatures of old grads. It has beautiful traditions which must be relinquished in the new school, where the memories of former inhabitants will be lost. This situation is sad, but inevitable. We are glad to graduate from this hoary building, for what would be gained in equipment and space in the new Hope must be lost in love. For we love our school: we love every bit of plaster. yellowed with age, and every nick and scratch on our desks, each with its own story: and we feel sorry for those who must exist in the new impersonal building and miss the happy life we have enjoyed at Hope. JOHN MAHONEY, '37 A Voyage When you're full of unrest, and your job is a pest, Just decide to take a vacation. Consider a place-Fujiyama or Thrace,- And begin on the grand preparation. First, the trunk is too small, and you start in to bawl, While the family looks on in grave wonder. If your dress suit's inside, the shoes you can't hide, And the pain of it rends you asunder. Then you buy a new bag that looks like a rag, And will on the least provocation Collapse with a crash fnow your new hat is hashj And revert to its first avocation! Well, at last you set sail, and you hang on the rail, To wave your farewell to the nation: But when the swell moves you, you find it behooves you To take up the rail as your station! The trip is terrific-to be more specific, You're wishing it over on Monday- By Friday you're there and, like some hunted hare, Start home again the next Sunday.

ARTHUR SPEAR, '37 LITERATURE H Human Interest H A man carrying a camera picked his way carefully along the main street of Elmstown, Kentucky. The early morning sun glinted brightly on his press badge, but lent no cheer to the desolate scene. The street was crowded with flood refugees and their meagre bundles of possessions saved from the rising waters. The eyes of the camera-carrier were fixed on a red and white flag wav- ing in the brisk breeze. There was the relief station toward which the reporter, along with many of the flood victims, was heading. He hurried forward, jost- ling impatiently the motley groups in his path. Those unfortunates gazed at him apathetically: they had suffered too much to be disturbed by an overbear- ing reporter. The newspaperman elbowed his way into the Red Cross station. He stood against the wall until an oflicer in charge caught sight of him and approached. The reporter addressed him. My name's Cameron. Of the 'Star'. I'm after some stories. You know, :human 1nterest'. Man swimming miles to safety. Something like that. Any interesting cases brought here? The relief offlcer ran his fingers through his hair in irritation. Why wouldn't reporters leave him alone? People were-being calrried in every minute. They needed his care. And this fellow was wasting his time for a human in- terest story. I'm sorry, Mr. Cameron. I haven't had time to investigate. But stick around, if you like, and ind out for yourself. The officer nodded shortly and hurried off. Cameron strolled about among the forlorn refugees and harrassed workers. Now and then he stopped to ask a question or snap a picture. He did not seem satisfied. , . , t The night was dark. The faint glimmerings of the moon barely illum- ined the devastated flood area. A man, and a woman holding a baby could be discerned on the roof of a house in the midst of the swirling muddy water. It had been torn from its foundations and was rocking crazily with the current. The man clung desperately to the sloping roof with one hand and, with the other, supported his wife and child. The two were asleep. They had been clinging to the roof for nearly two days. The man's face was gaunt from weariness and desperation. No one had seen them during all the time they had lain on the roof. Were they never going to be rescued? CContinued on Page 1041 l03 BLUE AND WHITE Human Interest CContinued from Page 1035 He twisted over onto his side with a groan and listened to the wreckage smashing against the house. It would soon fall apart. They'd be in the river then. He shuddered and gripped the sleeping pair more tightly. The baby whimpered softly. The man frowned. The baby needed medical attention. She was growing very weak from exposure. And Clara, too. If help didn't come soonl His thoughts were interrupted by the tearing crash of timber against the side of the house. This time the weakened frame partially collapsed and listed dangerously. The man shook his wife awake. Has help-? she began: her husband shook his head. We've got to swim for it, he replied. We can't stay here any longer: the house is being battered to pieces. But Jeb, Clara's voice rose to a despairing wail, the baby. She'll drown. And I can't swim. I'm so tired! Jeb's voice dragged itself from the depths of weariness. Either we take a chance or drown here. I'll carry you and the kid on my back. Oh, we'll get to dry land all right. He spoke with more hope than he could feel. He didn't know exactly how he was to swim through waters filled with debris rushing madly along with the current. Besides, it was a starless night. He would not be able to watch out for sudden danger, or even an unexpected rescue. However, Jeb said nothing about his fears and taking off his coat he contrived to fasten it around Clara and the baby so that they were securely tied to his back. The child moaned weakly during the preparations: her mother hushed her anxiously. Oh, God, don't let her die, don't let her die! she prayed. Another rending shock made the house spin dizzily. Jeb braced himself. Crawling with his heavy burden across the steep slope of the roof, he slid into the black Hood. He gasped from the shock of the icy water and struck out slowly through the darkness. Behind the three a series of splintering cracks marked the complete destruction of what had once been their home. As Jeb swam with clumsy strokes through the swift current, the eastern horizon grew almost imperceptibly lighter. The swimmer,s heart lightened also with a renewal of hope. It would be a fair day, he thought irrelevantly. If only he could hold out until sunrise. He was sinking deeper into the water now. That meant that he was weak- ening, he reflected. Strange that he should be so calm when he was so near drowning. Clara was gasping. She must be below the water-level. In the gray twilight of dawn he searched with blood-shot eyes for some piece of drift- ing wreckage to cling to. Catching hold of a floating log, he hung on with stiff- ened fingers. While the dawn reddened and the sun turned the clouds to rosy shreds of fleece, Jeb clung to the log in the muddy river. Clara and her baby hung a dead Weight on his back. He would have given up and let himself slide down into the grasping fingers of water that clutched at him so greedily, but he had to save his wife and baby daughter. For their sakes he fought to retain con- sciousness. For them he called for help with a hoarse voice. The sun was shining brightly on the inundated fields before aid arrived. A rowboat, manned by government Workers, had set out early on its morning patrol. The rattle of the oarlocks was nearly drowned out by the shrill whist- ling of one of the rowers. At this raucous sound, carrying clearly through the CContinued on Page 105D 104 Vignettes With shoulders squared and eyes following his teacher, he sits there.

Swinging about, they headed for the drifting log. They dragged the half-unconscious Jeb, with his silent burden, into the boat. A flask was pressed to his lips: the stream of liquid fire burning down his throat revived him some- what. One rescuer had cut loose Clara and the baby from his back. They're dead, he announced briefly. Jeb heard the flat comment: he showed no emotion. He was dead, too. Only not so completely, not so fortunately as they. He felt the lifeless body pressed coldly against him, but the sun's rays were warm upon his face. The journey back to the relief station at Elmstown was perfectly silent except for the creaking of the oars. The boat reached a wharf. There, others carried away the two over which the flood had triumphed. Jeb refused assist- ance and plodded down the street to the Red Cross station. The flag waved merrily above his head as he climbed the stairs. The door opened. A man carrying a camera emerged from the busy inte- rior. He was in a bad humor. There had been not one story worth the trouble of wiring back to the oHice. As he ran down the stairs, his glance swept unin- terestedly over the gaunt figure wearily ascending. Then he went on. ROBERTA Buss, '37 105 Mosquito Bites All of us are at least a wee bit auto-sadistic. That is, we enjoy, to a certain extent, being hurt personally and physically, providing it is not over- painful. Who can deny that he doesn't get a little thrill of pleasure at watch- ing an adult anopholes sink a quarter inch shaft into his tender epidermis? And the swatting of the insect is something of a joy itself. It brings out the dormant cave-man in us to wait until he has got in his dirty work, and then descend upon him and administer a crashing doom. This brings us around to the rather perplexing problem of what to do with the carcass of the defeated one. The commonest solution is to wipe him on mother's clean wall paper or the bed spread. This will bring out the latent cave-man in mother, too, and we can all exult in the death of anopholes. Now we have arrived at the best part of this saga of death on the forearm -the appearance of the welt. The larger the welt the better, for it is more fun to scratch a good, healthy, bulbous knob than some puny enlarged pore. If you happen to live in Maine, you are sure of a good mound. The mosquitoes are big there, and I knew of a man, who was under weight and thin, who stayed at a tourist camp up there one night. He was bitten by one mosquito during the night, and the next morning he was eligible for the police force in Boston. That will convince you of the size of the insects up there. I have had a bit of experience with the big ones myself. We were asleep in our summer cottage one evening when I was awakened by a commotion out on the lawn. Running to the window, I was greeted by the appalling sight of three mosquitoes in mortal combat. One wanted to move our piano out on the lawn for a dance: another wanted to go upstairs and eat my brother: while the third was shouting, I.et's take the car and go for a drive,-before the BIG mosquitoes come out! LINCOLN ROCKXVELL, In Praise of the Early Morning As I awoke, I felt a cool breeze pass over my face. I sat up in bed, and noticed it was a line, bright, spring morning. Getting out of bed, I viewed the scene from my open window. In the yard I could see the lively birds merrily skipping about in the trees. High in the sky the sun's beaming rays illuminated the snow white clouds. From where I stood, I glanced at the clock. It was only seven. Viewing the beautiful outdoor scene once more, I took a deep, satisfying breath of the fresh morning air, I had never realized how wonderful it was to rise a bit early on a school day. I could get up early every day, and I could even take a walk before breakfast. However, I would not be able to go to sleep late at night if I expected to rise early. Suddenly, I was reminded that I had gone to sleep late the night before. Here, I had arisen early and lost a half hour's sleep. Well, it would be another half hour before anyone would come to awaken me. Well, a little extra sleep will never harm me, I sighed as I climbed back into bed. MAYNARD BURT, '38 106 01' Vice Versa Profound silence reigned in the newly-formed Brannerman household, save for the ticking of an ornate grandfather's clock, the silvered hands of which pointed to exactly ten minutes past nine, Eastern Daylight Saving time. The sound of a passing milk wagon partially roused Lucius Algernon Brannerman from his nightly stupor, produced by the deadening action of small white pills from a bottle labeled, FOR INSOMNIAH. After another fifteen minutes of restless sleep, both Luke and his wife were thoroughly aroused by the ringing of the doorbell of their three and one-half room apartment. The usual brunt of all marital disputes rolled out of bed and was met at the door by a messenger carrying a large perforated box from which was emitted a sound of fitful scratch- ing, accompanied by a few feeble squeaks, from which evidence an astute observ- er would have gathered that the box contained a restless member of the feline family, but Luke Brannerman was feeling far from astute, so he dropped the box on his wife's bed carelessly, and its occupant immediately let out an un- earthly screech. . . When Luke's nerves had quieted a bit, he cautiously edged out from under the bed and saw that the cat's box was empty. He ventured out into the al- leged kitchenette, a closet containing a stove and an icebox, and there, sitting in his empty milk bowl, was the cat, a beautiful yellow Persian. The cat stared at Luke, and Luke stared at the cat, the rudiments of the love that never dies already beginning to form in his bosom. This reverie was interrupted by his wife's voice coming to him from the one front window. Luke, there's a car stopping outside: I think it's your father. Exactly two and one-half minutes later, Mr. J. Augustus Brannerman was met at the door by a disheveled son who had forgotten his tie and suspenders, the latter omission necessitating a somewhat Napoleonic attitude in order to retain some semblance of decency. But the father's surprise at seeing the son was as nothing to the son's surprise at seeing the father, or rather what the father had with him. Why--Father, they don't allow horses in the apartments! Son, this is a full-blooded Bull Mastiff. . .He weighs only about one hundred and fifty pounds. But, of course, if you don't appreciate your wed- ding present, . . Oh, sure, Father, I was just taken by surprise. Why, he's a beautiful creature, and plenty of him, too. , . . Half an hour later, when Mr. Brannerman had left, the little icebox in the kitchenette presented a sorry spectacle. It was empty. The cat was having an attack of acute indigestion, and was not making any effort to suffer in silence. Albert was the name the cat had had tagged on him when something had gone wrong in the christening process, in which the dog had been named Toodles, Albert had tried to consume as much of the Brannermans' breakfast, dinner, and supper as Toodles, and the capacity of his stomach being about one-tenth of Toodles', he had suffered disastrous results. The two 'lpets were lying at opposite ends of the apartment, each eyeing the other suspiciously, as if waiting to pounce on him and tear him to pieces. Mr. and Mrs. Brannerman were both out Cof the houseb, the male member of the family having gone to work two hours late, while Laura had gone to get materials with which to restock the sadly depleted stores of the icebox. When she came home, the cat, rushing to greet his mistress, got between her legs, so that groceries, bags, and Mrs. Brannerman went flying all over the room, except for a box of eggs, which miraculously landed on the broad back of Too- dles, thereby greatly increasing Laura's liking for that patient animal, and great- ly decreasing her already small liking for Albert. When Luke arrived at his fContinued on Page 108, 107 Or Vice Versa . fContinued from Page 1075 domicile, the dog was sitting contentedly at the feet of his wife, and, when the husband was changing his shirt, the inevitable collar button dropped and dis- appeared. Albert, the cat, dived under the bureau, emerged immediately, and walked up to the disgruntled Luke with the missing article in his mouth. This incident increased Mr. Brannerman's liking for Albert, and after this, wherever he went, the cat would trot confidently behind, knowing he had found a fast friend. Laura protested, because it was evident that the presents were growing to like the wrong people, so an exchange was made, Laura having full charge of the cat, and Luke taking care of Toodles. Returning from the movies that night, they found when they Went into the bedroom that what had formerly been their beds were now but piles of torn cloth andumangled iron, but on top 'of the remains of Luke's bed sat a wild- eyed and disheveled cat, and Laura's pile was heavily weighted down by Too- dles,, now but a mass of torn fur. Evidently, the pets had been jealous of each other, each feeling that the other was being taken care of by his own master, and a fight ensued, which ended in the cat's sitting on what he considered his right- ful master's bed, and the dog sitting on the mighty abode of his mistress Laura. After viewing this scene with awe for a few minutes, the truth suddenly dawned on Luke and Laura Brannerman, and each confessed to the other that he or she liked the other's present better, so Luke got the Persian cat, Laura got the bull mastiff, and the Brannerman family lived happily ever after. DONALD BUCKLIN, '3 9 On Souvenir Hunting One of the most prominent all American pastimes-souvenir hunting- is also one of the least sensible. The most ardent souvenir seekers can always be spotted as the most infrequent travelers. For, after all, those who never go far must have something to show for what traveling they do. There are various types of this form of insanity ranging from collecting soap from hotel rooms, to chipping stone from the grave-markers of the fa- mous. Some people are quite methodical in their collection of souvenirs, in that they just collect, let us say, soap in as many different wrappers as possible. On the other hand some, losing their heads at great moments, just grab any- thing that is loose as a reminder of the great day in their lives, These mementos are never anything worth having and some, unless properly labeled, would be most bewildering to the casual onlooker. Now for advice to the prospective souvenir seeker-Since hotel managers are now preparing for such visitors by going to every room after each occupant, it is most inadvisable to take anything of any worth. Think of the embar- rassment of being asked, perhaps in a hotel lobby, to please return the towel taken from Room 208. To point out the futility of souvenir hunting, I would call your attention to the fact that most souvenirs end in the back of a drawer, only to be forgotten and probably thrown away when the owner comes back from his next trip and needs room for his new collection of souvenirs.

He looked down at the water, so far down, so cold, so dark. In a moment he would be in that water, would feel it rush over his head, feel it grip his whole body with its icy clutch as he went down, down, into the fathomless depths of the ocean. He moved closer to the edge of the rock, tense, Did he dare? Did he have the nerve? They had said back there that he wouldn't do it, that he didn't have the courage, that he was bluffing. Well, he'd show them he hadn't been bluffingg he'd go through with it just as he'd said he would, and when they heard- Suddenly the cold, dismal silence of the afternoon was broken: there was a splash, the salty spray dashed against the side of the rock: then all was still again.

Mary Jane was aboard. She hadn't intended coming at all. In fact, all the way across the continent she constantly averred she wasn't coming. Yet, despite all thoughts to the contrary, Mary Jane had to admit a growing desire to see her remaining parent. It was just as she had written to Susan, she knew she didn't love her mother. Now she was dead, and Mary Jane didn't seem to miss her at all. To be sure, she had seen very little of her, anyway, Divorcees were very much in demand in Mary Jane's mother's circle. Would she love her dad? Dad. How strange the word sounded. Dad. Why, she had no recollection of him! She looked out of the car window. She tried to picture what her dad would look like. Did he look like that man with the grey hair and glasses. who walked with a stoop? Maybe he looked like that man tipping the Red-cap. He was tall and his red hair curled nicely. She took little notice of the tired-looking individual in the brown outfit. He turned from her after pocketing his watch. Looking for his wife, observed Mary Jane, with a grin. There was that smart-looking man over there with a white scarf knotted nattily at his neck. He might do. No, none of them would do. She turned away from the window and sighed. As a hawker passed through her train, she purchased a paper from him. The train rolled out of the station and Mary Jane settled herself as she had done after every stop since New Haven. Chicago, Denver, and points west, echoed in her ears for a long time. This trip across the continent had been nice. Now, in an hour, it would be over. Over! What was going to happen to her? College, I hope, she murmured to herself. If only he likes me, she thought, wistfully. San Francisco! droned out the conductor. Quickly she gathered together her things. At last she was at the information desk. as directed by a letter from her father's lawyer. Certainly Dad wouldn't miss the red hat that she purposely wore. What was keeping him? Why didn't he come? Oh, Daddy, where are you? she almost wailed to herself. She glimpsed a bespectacled figure coming determinedly in her direction. Not Daddy! Miss Randall? Yes, she said, doubtfully. I am John Williams, your father's lawyer. He was taken ill and died this morning. I am deeply sorry, . . 'ANaw, suh. Dat's awrigh', suh. Lotsa ladies faints 'round yearh, suh. ALICE HOWKINS, '3 7 l 10 just a Cat It will be just seven years ago June when Dad brought him home to me- the cutest little ball of furry fluff that I ever saw! He had been born in a large box on the highest shelf in a bakery right here on the East Side. From the first moment I saw him, I knew him to be different from other cats. His skin was pure white beneath a heavy, silky, all-black coat, but he had no tail! That's what made him so adorable-no tail, just a little stub to take its place. It hadn't been cut off: he was born like that. He was part rabbit, and his hind legs were long so that he didn't run like any other cat, but jumped like his ancestors. I'll never forget that first day, because he was so frightened. I put butter on his nose so that he would try to lick it off, and thus forget about being lonely. Then I tried to think of a name for him. At last I decided to call him Bobbie because he was a bob-tail. From that time on he caused quite a sensa- tion in the neighborhood. When he had reached the ripe old age of about one year and a half, he had acquired the habit of following me around, just like a little puppy dog. Un- usual for a cat, said everyone, but that is what I'm trying to explain: Bobbie was unusual. Then time stood still for a while because he was confronted with a difficult proposition. He had now grown to be a large brute of a tom-cat and there was but one tiger cat in the whole neighborhood that could give him a beating. Bobbie at last decided that it was about time that he became the 'lbig boss. He had made up his mind Che was very determinedj and one starry night he did it. Yes, he gave Tiger Burrows the best licking he ever got and came straight home to tell it to me. I could fairly sense his triumph as he came in, his little stub out straight, his large tom-cat head held high. Then another change came. There was suddenly an over-abundance of females in my front yard. At first, it didn't dawn on me that Bobbie was the cause of it because he just didn't seem the type to bother with girls: neverthe- less, he was. But then again, wasn't he unlike the rest of the alley-cat swains that were so numerous? The next winter Bobbie became a hero. One day after school I heard his cry at the back door: I opened it, and Bobbie dropped a kitten inside. Before I could question him, he was off with a dash. A half-hour later I opened the door only to be presented with another blessed event. By this time I was fairly frantic. I was determined to find out just where and how he was getting these kittens. Then I spied Bobbie coming across the field. It was just getting dark, and snow was beginning to fall lightly. You can't imagine how cute he looked with another something in his mouth and two little wobbly speci- mens of the same kind trotting after him. Well, imagine my state of mind as he deposited three more on the kitchen fioor, and started at once to wash them, just like a little mother. I was all ready to scold him when he looked at me with his large soulful eyes, and I weakened. But wasn't it just like Bobby, always ready to lend a helping hand! Thus he went on for six years. Then one night he went out as usual, but didn't come home at the expected time. I was worried about him but really thought he would come back. Every once in a while he had gone off on a spree, always returning as hungry as a bear. Two months have passed now, and my hopes are waning. Every night I look for him before I go to bed in the hope that his friendly little meow will greet me. fContinued on Page 112D l I l Achievement Far across the sea to sunny Italy she wandered, seeking for rest and music. She wanted to hear the voices of young sopranos, practicing their scales, and she, too, had come to beautiful Venice to practice her scales and perhaps some day to gain fame. She hired a room in an old Italian villa with a courtyard. This villa was occupied with musicians from all over the world. Far into the night, after her lights had been turned low, she heard the cry- ing of violins, muted trumpets playing over and over again their own tunes. To the outside world they meant discordant harmony: to the creators, music written from the soul. She soon began to notice a young lad who lived across the courtyard. Day after day, night after night, he sat in his room. Violin in hand he played his melody. Trumpet in hand he repeated the bars of music she had seen him write. Only a bottle of red wine and some bread were on the table. He took this at various intervals, For hours afterwards he would do nothing but sit in the dim light and play, stop and write a note, and play again. For many months this continued. She, too, had made progress. She was soon to be recognized. Then one day she had to go away. She was going home to continue her studies. On the last night she went to the Metropolitan to hear the great Lily Pons in a new opera, She saw Stokowski raise his hands. She heard a Stradivarius violin draw a melody from its strings. Yes! she had heard that tune before. Somewhere, sometime she had heard that tune before. Somewhere, sometime, she had heard that melody repeat its notes without ceas- ing. She glanced into the orchestra pit. The same young gentleman sat there. He was playing the violin. An orchestra of one hundred pieces was playing his opera and Lily Pons was singing his aria. He had achieved his greatest moment, the time when musicians find the world has recognized their composition. The girl smiled. She, too, would sing from that stage! HILDA PRITSKER, '37 Just a Cat fContinued from Page lllj Now on these cold nights I wonder what happened to him, and it brings back the times when he would sneak into my bedroom and lie on my feet. No one knows how much I miss the rough lick of his tongue on my chin as he tried his very best to show his affection, or the sound of his voice as he tried to tell, in his own little way, what he meant. People somehow always say Cats with a wrinkled nose. Why? I loved that little black cub of mine more than words could ever express. People wonder why I miss him, and tell me I can always get another cat. But he was different: he wasn't just an ordinary cat. HOPE SIMPSON, '3 7 1 12 Press Ticket She had an almost childlike air. Her face, which was round and placid, was rather inclined to be pink, and her nose was badly in need of a powder-puff. But she was very earnest about the newspaper, and she always arrived on time for work: most of them didn't. So the Boss assigned her to the small items- birds and the exhibit gardens in the park-and sometimes, on very special occa- sions, interviews with the matrons of the town. On these interviews, she was accompanied by a very bored photographer, who took pictures of cellars made over into game rooms, of stuffy living rooms furnished with glass-topped tables, ultra-modern chairs, and Mrs. So and So with her dog, Moppet . She would go where she was sent, without protest, obediently-her hat, of no particular style, set on her head, her pale little button-mouth shut firmly, her nondescript, gray eyes looking quietly at life going by. No one knew that inside her burned an intense desire to write a story about something exciting, about spectacular people, about the things that were happening every day. No one suspected that, when the Boss barked impatient orders to cover this gang shooting, that suicide, she longed to be in the middle of it all, with a press ticket in her squashed-down brown hat. They would have laughed if she had voiced these desires, for she had such a gentle face. However, she never said anything and continued to write her six-inch columns about the park and matrons and their dogs. Perhaps she did it because of her mild, old-fashioned parents and the little, white house with the gables in the West End of town-they were all she had in the world. Every morning she arrived twenty minutes before she had to. This in itself was enough to dumbfound her co-workers. The Boss, raising weary, hard eyes from his littered desk, would see her entering with the sun, her neat brief-case held lovingly. The Boss, who slept at intervals of three times a week -and that usually over his desk-tried in vain to discover what there was about his dreary office to warrant her coming back before it was absolutely necessary. He did not know exactly whether he admired her or not. She was a good plugger 3 but she was also what was known in the Boss' vocabulary as a sucker . So he sent her on her monotonous little assignments because some one had to do them. One morning when she came in, the Boss was not falling asleep over his coffee, as usual. He was storming up and down the room, his face livid With rage, his lips spitting forth vituperative adjectives. A lire-a honey of a fire! And none of my men on hand to go to itl What do they think this is-a 'pink tea'? No one here but a dumb photog- rapher who can't write-and-- He stopped short and looked at her. You, he sputtered. You're here-the only one on the job. Look here, I'll give you a break. Bring me a story on that fire, and I'll give you the biggest commission I ever gave any one! Her first story! Her practical, little mouth gave no hint of the excitement raging within her. But as she climbed into the photographers inadequate, old car, with her notebook clutched desperately in her fat fingers and the long coveted press ticket in her hat, she began to tremble. Red, the photographer, watched her with kind amusement. It was swell that she had this chance. CContinued on Page 1143 ll3 Tl1ere's Une In Every School He is an adorable youngster with curly hair and pink cheeks. The he of whom I am speaking is the perfect pupil. His homework is always perfectly prepared, and he smiles pityingly when some poor child who isn't a genius makes a mistake which he wouldn't have made. In fact, he never makes mis- takes. Whenever something funny is said and we mortals are shaking with laughter, he just smiles his cherubic grimace and continues his work. He is never late for school or punished for talkingg no, he is above all that. He is the first to enter a classroom and the last to leave it. He has no extra-curricular activities because they would interfere with his schoolwork. He fancies himself to be the idol of his less fortunate schoolmates, whose laughs of derision he interprets as applause. Is he really the height of perfection? Do teachers really prefer such extraordinary goodness? I often wonder. Wherever he may go friendly greetings are sure to follow him. This he is lanky and awkward. His clothes are baggy and, seen walking to school on a windy day, he resembles an animated scare-crow. He is, it is true, on the football squad, but he earned his position only after three years of being liter- ally used for tackling practice. Frequently his report card will show that, in spite of his effort, he is unable to master a subject. His efforts are never re- garded scornfully, however. Everyone seems anxious to have him succeed. He sometimes is blamed for things which he hasn't done because his good nature makes him and easy target. Is he despised by teachers because of his slowness? I doubt it. He is most often found in the detention room. He strolls into school ten or fifteen minutes late nearly every morning, without any preparation for class, and proceeds to contribute as little as possible to the advancement of the period. His day is spent in seeing how much of a nuisance he can make of himself. His success is measured by the number of laughs that he can provoke from his class- mates. These laughs are usually at the expense of the teacher or some classmate. He is at the bottom of every practical joke. The three above mentioned he's are sketched from persons whom I have seen around this school. They seem to be three distinct types, of whom one may be found in every school.

Then Avon street, and hot, red flames rising around a little, white house with gables, her little, white house. A fellow reporter hailed Red, and she heard him say above the in- creasing roar in her ears: Boy, is this a story? No survivors, not one, and all the possessions, every single thing they own, was burned to the ground. What a scoop! When Red looked at her, he thought, How white she looks! Poor thing's probably so' thrilled that she won't be able to write. And what a story! Wish I'd had her luck at my first chance.

The club, named from the Hope Players of the main building, was organized in January, shortly after the beginning of the term. The first meetings were presided over by Mr. Clayton, club sponsor, and an elected board of governors, consisting of Stella Reitman, Millard Levye, Karl Johnson, and Lloyd Wilcox. To become a member of the club, it was necessary to take part in a competitive try-out, for which the judges were Miss Ethier, Mr. Jackson, and Mr. Clayton. Out of the seventy-five that tried out, about fifty were admitted to the club. During the last part of April another try-out was held and several new mem- bers Were admitted. The officers of the club are: President, Miriam Blackman: vice-president, Stella Reitman: secretary, Elaine Tanneng treasurer, Karl John- son, and assistant treasurer, Miriam White. The first production of the club, Station YYYYH, by Booth Tarking- ton, was given as an assembly program. The members of the cast were Miriam Blackman, Millard Levye, Sylvia Katz, Morris Snyder, Beverly Zimmerman, Regina Abrams, and Robert Trumbull. Several people Whose work concerns dramatics have spoken at the club. The first of the speakers was Miss Margaret Nevius, who spoke on the subject. Radio . Another featured speaker was Miss Slack, of the main building. Mrs, Walter Strauss, former Hope teacher, and founder of the Hope Players, gave a talk about many interesting experiences of members of her club. Miss Ruth Hassell, of the main building, addressed the club later in the season. tcontinued on Page HRH 117 The grand linale of the season was the production of three one-act plays. Babbit's Boy , by Glenn Hughes, was directed by Mr. William Jackson, with the following cast: Milton Isserlis, Ruth Rotman, Lester Millman, Mary Santos, Marjorie MacCormick and Lucille Lindley. Grandma Pulls the Strings , by Edith Barnard Lelam and David Carb, was coached by Miss Agnes Ethier. The parts were taken by Anne Richman, Gertrude Weisinger, Theresa Petrosinelli, Beverly Zimmerman, Eleanor Davey, and Forest Eadden. The Crimson Cocoanut , by Ian Hay, was produced by Miss Janet Brown. Stella Reitman, Doris Zara, Karl Johnson, Morris Goodman, Edward Mace, and Neville Winkler were the actors. All three productions were under the supervising direction of Mr. Clayton. Annex CContinued from Page 1165 Have you ever noticed little Ruthie Graves when she's dancing? Can she go to town!

Do I hear sighs of relief? After three days of agony, we regained our dignities, which in many cases were sadly ruffled, and put the skeletons back in their closets for another year. On top of this seige came the quarterly exams, which, in comparison with the cooperatives, were as easy as rolling off a log . April 30, however, made up for all the trials and worries of the year. Of course, I mean Hope Night, when students and the teachers of the Main build- ing and the Annex met for a rollicking good time together. MARGARET HOLDEN Trolley Car Noises After many a whistle and shout, the trolley finally came to a sudden, jolt- ing, and screeching stop. I climbed aboard, paid my fare, and we were off again with a blast of air that released the brakes, and a sullen groaning in the car's vitals. I was all settled in my seat when we came again to a jolting stop, with all the noises that only a trolley car can make. This time We took on quite a load of passengers, so that, when We started again, I surely thought that poor old car would break down under the strain. She ground, bucked, wheezed, and strained, finally getting underway, and now making that feeble worn-out clanging, as the raging conductor tramped on the bell at some jay- Walking pedestrian. JAMES FOSTER, '39 ll8 011 Hockey Games Ah, me, what thrills of joy run up and down my spinal cord when I receive the joyful news through the daily bulletin or that sometimes unreliable factor, gossip, that a hockey game has been scheduled for the evening! Hurriedly I rush up to the home-room ticket vendor fwho loves to see me coming, as I always buy at least a half dozen ticketsj and purchase the desired number. It is a well-known fact, or should be, after all the recent games they have attended, that I have three brothers who love hockey and go to the games as much as possible. Be that as it may, school lets out and homeward I rush. Reason? Why, my homework must be finished or at least started before I can even think of attending a game. At seven-thirty, or thereabouts, a storm descends on the arena in the form of two invincible hockey fans. My eldest brother has outgrown the whirlwind stage and vainly tries to suppress the two younger ones. The moment they have given their tickets to the gate-keeper and he allows them to pass, they stampede up the stairway to the top section, so they can descend upon seats like hawks upon prey. After trying out all the vacant seats in an attempt to gain as nearly a perfect view of the ice as possible, they finally seat themselves for as much as one minute. The audience fespecially those behind these charming youthsj heaves a sigh of relief as it once more gathers a full view of the process of chasing the puck, otherwise known as hockey. However, my dauntless young brothers, after a yell or two to someone they know out on the ice, expectantly turn around with beaming faces and open hands for money to buy some candy with. For two minutes after achieving this deli- cacv, they can be seen munching vigorously, their feet propped up on the back of the seat in front. Cwhether or not someone occupies it and they are annoying himb and their healthy, well-developed lungs applauding and cheering on their chosen hero. It certainly is a wonder how a hockev player can keep his mind on the game with such well-chosen remarks as my brothers will voice ringing in his ears. The boys' favorite pastime Cwhen the game isn't exciting enoughl is to wait until the peanut and candy vendor has passed and then to whistle. The unsuspecting boy immediately turns around, but perceives no one looking for him. All he sees is three angelic looking boys, faces alight. and wiry bodies well forward as they intently watch the game. With a shrug of his shoulders, again the boy starts upward. This time he is not mistaken. Surely he heard someone call him. Turning around, he starts for his prospective customer, but, lo and behold! again no buyer. After a time, tiring of this sport, the boys proceed to pass comments on the uniforms of the players. I-lo! Look at the sissies. The Cranston boys are wearing suspenders and green satin shorts! They like Hope's uniforms. They're certainly shabby and old enough to please the heart of any boy! Now one of the players, angered by persistent board-checking, allows his rightful wrath to overcome him, and raises his stick to let it fall on the cranium of the boy nearest him, who is quite unaware of the fact that a crushed or fractured skull is a dangerous ill. This quite delights my blood- thirsty brothers, and they immediately praise to new heights the player who has committed the crime. fContinued on Page 1201 ll9 Her First Boy Friend The scene: - A park bench surrounded by three ladies and two gentlemen. The time: Late afternoon on a beautiful spring day. All the flowers have their eyes and ears open. The characters: The heroine-Jeannie, best described by her beautiful features: glorious golden hair that shone on the darkest of days, sparkling blue eyes, with a glimmer of mischief in them, and dimples-why, they made the slight- est whim a possibility CCome and get her, you blond-chasers.5 The hero-Ralph, freckle-faced, yet handsome, with a nose which inclined slightly towards the bluest of skies. Not a bit snobbish, but truly a like- able fellow. The Mother-She guarded Jeannie well, but not well enough, as we shall see. Miscellaneous: Some of the gentlemen and ladies who must be added to make a story a story. l The Plot: W ' First, we shall summarize the facts obtained: fl5 A park bench C35 A pretty girl f25 A likeable boy Q45 A mother C55 Some people Cperhaps for scenery purposes5 Now, something has to happen. Jeannie and her mother sight the bench. Unfortunately, the one and only bench is occupied by our noble hero and his mother. Still, they approach-Suddenly Jeannie deserts her mother. The climax: She rushes toward the bench, toward Ralph, a total stranger-And-she throws her arms around his neck and bestows a fond kiss upon the bewil- dered hero. Conclusion: Now my tale is ended, but a word before I bring my lines to a close. Our heroine was three years old last month and poor Ralph a sturdy lad of seven. Alas and alack! She is starting young and must be more carefully guarded in the future. PRISCILLA SHIRES, '38 On Hockey Games fContinued from Page 1195 Finally, the third quarter of the last game arrives with a tied score. My brothers are tiring and relax in their seats. A great shout arises, as the game ends with the opposite team winning by a lucky goal. Now-. I brace myself for the rush. Not so my brothers! With sharpened elbows, such as would do a bargain-hunter credit, they leap into the midst of the swirling pool. Under this man's arm, bumping right into that woman, with good football strategy they reach the outside door. Then, into the car they leap, greatly irked by the delay caused by so many automobiles. On the way home, having exhausted all their powers, physically and mentally, they quietly pro- ceed, after a few minor arguments, to fall asleep. PEGGY HoLDswoRTH, '37 l20 3- uV +...,f' 4, b FMUI.

W' gf 7 1 ,f A ZH T.: Cheez-it, The Watchman The night was a clear, frosty one. The stars pierced brightly the black velvet sky. As one let out his warm breath, a sudden puff of gray mist was formed. The neighborhood was quiet, except for the low whining of a stray dog. The freight cars on the nearby railroad tracks broke the dense stillness with their screeching as they occasionally crashed into one another. The gang was settled luxuriously in the club room, an empty store, which the gang rented for two dollars a week. It contained, on an empty overturned case, a midget radio, which blared raucously daily and late into the night. Around the room were scattered a few wooden folding chairs. Extending on a cord from the ceiling hung a bulb, which shed a dingy light over the room. The center of the room was taken up by a large green billiard table, around which stood several young boys. Some were dressed in ragged overalls and others in not-too-clean trousers. A few were listening to a head-splitting jazz orchestra. Practically all the boys were smoking, and a sickly haze of smoke and stale air seeped through the room. Two of the boys worked for a jewelry concern: the rest hung around corners, smoking endless cigarettes and discussing the charms of the opposite sex. Tonight the subject was a mixture of sports, money, and horses. Chee, said Jimmie, I wish Speed'd hurry up. Cripes! It's ha' past five awready. What the heck does he t'ink I yam? Maybe he didn't come home yet, volunteered Domenic. Here 'e is now, answered Joe. Speed entered: his sweater was torn, his trousers dirty. His left eye was conspicuously blackened. Whoa, what a shiner! Holy cats! cried Jimmie. Where ja ketch it? asked the boys. Aw, nuts! Whadda you care? Come on. We gotta get down the tracks 'fore the watchman comes 'round, called Jimmie. The boys picked up two potato sacks hanging behind the door. They left hurriedly and ran swiftly through the deserted street to the fence which surrounded the train yard. Climbing over this, they slid and scrambled down the grassy back to the tracks below. So experienced were the boys in this trade that they knew their way even in the dark. Words, when necessary. were whispered. The red wooden freight cars were attached in twos and threes. These contained food, and the like, or were empty. The black iron cars con- tained coal and coke. Reaching a few coal trains, each boy moved to a separate one and, by hanging on and pushing, each managed to climb to the top. Almost silently they started to fill the sacks. Suddenly came Speed's hoarse whisper, Cheez-it. Jimmie: the watchman. I kin see 'is light. Jumping down, Speed ran over to Jimmie. He helped Jimmie to climb down from the car. It was customary that, when a watchman was discovered, the boys were to hide between or under the freight cars. So the two boys tried to find a good hiding place. Meanwhile, the watchman's light was coming closer. Speed, luckily, stepped into an open freight car. Jimmie crouched under the car opposite. No sooner had he done so than there was a terrific crash among four trains. A nerve-wracking scream of anguish rent the air: then all was still. CContinued on Page 1231 122 Visions of a Gypsy Camp The occidental sky, like a painter's palette, was splotched with the intense colors of a glorious sunset. All the trees on the hillside, in regal garments of red-gold and russet, were garbed for the coronation of Winter. From the hol- low near the old Gath swamp came the echoes of music and revelry, and a curl of smoke could be seen on the dimming horizon. The Gypsies had come to Narmouthl On the hill above the hollow, where they had made their camp, Alice and her dog Jep watched what was happening. Alice had been walking in the woods when she heard gay music and saw the wanderer's encampment far be- low. There were several tents pitched not far from the campfire, and three old touring cars were parked in the shadows of a tall, old oak. A large, shaggy mongrel, yelping and whining, ran impatiently through the camp as he sniffed the air and pawed the soggy ground. The Gypsies were seated round the fire, and a girl was singing softly, while a callow youth plucked the strings of a man- dolin. The girl's clothes were loud and garish: she was wearing several strands of beads around her neck and a large gold ring through one ear. The bodice of her dress was scarlet, and she wore a brilliant scarf on her dark head. Occa- sionally she smiled roguishly at the youth, and her teeth gleamed in the fire- light. An old crone, who lazed in the warmth of the Ere, awoke at intervals and peered around her. She had a pipe in her mouth: her rough, tanned face had more wrinkles than the most intricate map. The other Gypsies hummed softly and two ragged children were dancing. Fascinated by the enchanting music, which was becoming faster and wilder, Alice crept towards the camp. holding Jep tightly by his leash and hoping he would stop growling. There was a small brook near the edge of the encampment. When she tried to iump it, she awoke and found herself jumping in bed: a hurdy-gurdy beneath her window was playing an Hungarian folk-song. MARGARET BRIGGS, '38 Gheez-it, the Watchman CContinued from Page 1221 Frightened, Speed loudly called for Jimmie. Hearing no answer, he ran to where Jimmie was lying. Calling again and receiving no answer, Speed stooped to feel the track. I-Ie encountered wet cloth. To know if it were water. he thrust his fingers into his mouth, The taste was sticky and sweet. looking closely at his lingers, he saw that they were stained with blood. Crouching on his knees, he looked wildly about. Finally he could see a dark form under the train. A wave of nausea swept over him: his heart beat louder: his breath came in short gasps. Dashing away, he ran towards the watchman. After a breathless explana- tion the watchman returned to the spot with Speed. The light shining directly on the track showed Jimmie. One leg was brutally torn off, an arm was smashed, and his chest crushed. My God! Oh, my God! Quick! go to the nearest telephone and call an ambulance, cried the stricken watchman. Speed moved dazedly. Mean- while, a few railroad workers had gathered at the scene. They succeeded in dragging out the limp body. The missing leg, clad in a blood-stained, torn stocking, was recovered a few hundred yards away. The screaming of the ambulance siren and its arrival brought the excited neighborhood to the scene. Women cried, children whimpered, dogs barked. reporters asked questions, Speed fainted, but Jimmie heard nothing. Jimmie was dead. ANITA BELLINI, '38 123 Laughter Laugh, and the World laughs with you. Now that all depends on what you're laughing at, and the time and the place of the laughter. If you laugh at yourself and your own troubles, that's fine and dandy: but just try laughing at somebody else and his troubles! You'll probably find that the temperature around you has dropped well below zero. According to Mr. Webster, laughter is a movement of the facial muscles and eyes caused by a feeling of merriment or pleasure . Mr. Webster's defini- tion is a fine one-far be it from me to criticize--but he fails to explain and define that nasty, bone-grating noise one hears at the conclusion of an unap- preciated joke, or, as it is said, when one has laid an egg. Of course, this laugh of derision or scorn has been supplanted in the past years by the so-called Bronx cheer, so we won't bother with it. To get back to the subject, I am still displeased with Mr. Webster, for he fails to include many types of grunts and groans which express the delight of some people. As an example, take a friend of mine. COf course, this isn't for keeps: you'll have to give her back.j This friend is a very lovely girl, but some of her laughter would put hyenas to shame. When this young lady laughs, you may expect anything from magnified hiccoughs to long, wavery shrieks. The time I most enjoy her laughter is when she is so tickled she's unable to utter a sound. You may say that the only way to stop her is to refrain from making funny remarks, but that would do no good. She con- tinually makes her own remarks that she Cbut few othersj thinks are wonder- ful, and off she goes into spasms of movements of the facial muscles and eyes . All this has failed to explain just what laughter is, but as long as we eat from Life's bowl of cherries and look out for the stones-who cares? ROBERT MEEHAN, '37 Sum1uer's Heat It was a hot, sultry night. There wasn't a breeze anywhere along the narrow, drab main street. In the gutters lay dirty papers, orange and banana skins, sticky ice cream boxes. A few dull electric signs, with bulbs missing here and there, blinked on and off in an attempt to make the city more metro- politan. Poorly arranged window-displays of clothing and household furnishings only added to the general wilted appearance. At the end of the street the eight o'clock train puffed by, belching clouds of black smoke. A few rattling auto- mobiles, filled to capacity, bumped along over the uneven cobblestones. Boys with open collars and damp hair ambled along with girls who looked limp even in their filmiest dresses. Even the dirty-faced children, who were usually very lively at this hour, seemed to just be dragging along. As the sun set, its fiery red rays gave promise of no relief, but of another day of torturing heat. ELAINE GUNY, '37 124 Idiot's Delight When taking the part of a male character because there weren't enough boys to take all the men's parts, one of the girls giggled, Today I am a man! Bright sayings of classmates: Courtship is the act of pursuit of a woman by a man until she catches him. A window is an object such that if a ball is found on the other side and a hole through it, the ball has gone through. A doorknob is an object which a revolving door goes around without. An interlocking directorate: the keeper of the Panama Canal gates.

What young damsel has gotten an excessive heat treatment on her fore- head so that it looks sunburned and, then tells her classmates that she has been dreaming of Florida?

That staircase should be Hxed, according to some of the injured scholars. One of our ambitious young auto drivers, when taking a lesson the other day, zoomed away, leaving a companion who was attempting to climb into the rumble seat sprawled in the middle of the road. It happened in the middle of the third study. It sounded like a recurrence of the Texas explosion. Amazement was registered on the faces of the pupils. Soon, however, we heard someone blow his nose violently and then we knew that Sammie Cleinman had sneezed again. It's strange that Shirley Norman doesn't have to walk all the way to school on these bright spring mornings. It isn't a girl that picks her up either. By RAZALB YELSNIPAS, '38 Lucky He must have been eight feet tall and weighed three hundred pounds. Charging with a scythe in his powerful hand. he threatened to cut me into six pieces. It was starting to get dark, and I didn't realize that I was being cornered until I was right on the edge of a cliff. Looking over the edge, and then at him, I decided it was a fight for life. With an oak tree about twenty feet tall in hand I stood my ground. The battle raged furiously through the night. In the morning the weight of the tree was beginning to tire me a bit. The giant was gradually backing me to the edge, and, losing my balance, over I went. On the way down, a tree growing out of the side stopped me by chance. I was badly scratched up. To my horror, before I was able to think, the tree gave away. I started going!! Down, down, down. down, down. . . OW!! HEY!! I-Iow did I get on the floor! It was lucky this was only the end of a dream. CAMPBELL IVICGREEN, '39 125 The Lost Elevator It is a frightful sensation when you are descending, with the greatest of ease, in a modern elevator in the New York Times Building, to feel suddenly as though you had hit rock bottom. It wouldn't have been so terrifying, once you recovered from the bump, if it were the bottom that we reached. But, unfortunately, most unfortunately, we, the prisoners in an elevator, were stuck between the tenth and eleventh floors. When the noise had ceased from the questions which were fired at the operator of the elevator, he managed to say in a calm voice, Don't all git excited! No, we were as calm as a summer sea. After waiting for about twenty minutes we decided that we would probably spend the rest of our lives in an elevator, an adventure which should be most exciting and extremely new to most of us. I decided that, as long as I had to live with these people for the time, I might as well become acquainted with them. There was Mrs. Wheelright, whose darling daughter was to meet her in Eve minutes. I hated to disappoint Mrs. Wheelright, but I just had to tell her that she would not be able to meet her daughter today-perhaps never. The moments were fleeting and the occupants of the elevator were getting impatient. It was most annoying to have that little five foot lady-although I didn't at the time call her a lady-stepping on my feet and demanding that she be let out of the elevator. After my giving her a detailed account of why she couldn't get out-although I feel certain that she would not have been missed-she proceeded to tell us of her little dog, Honey-boy, who would probably die of hunger. By this time I was beginning to wonder whether the operator knew just what to do or whether he was so confused because of the noise that he couldn't think straight. I convinced myself that it was the latter. I had now spent about sixty minutes of my young life listening to the gab of several annoying Cto say the leastj people. In a rather brazen tone I shouted out, Will you all keep silent for a moment and allow the operator to say a word! Much to my surprise and a little to my embarrassment, there was a moment of silence. The kindly operator, in a calm and serene voice, said, I've bin trying to tell yo' all that if one of yo' want to step on dis stool and climb out through dis openin', and then yo' cin send de odder elevator man to come fo' us. Seeing my chance to rid myself of this bedlam, I willingly offered to take the risk of climbing out. My worthy friends thought it quite heroic of me. If they only knew that it really wasn't so much the bravery as the thought of leaving them! I finally managed to get out, but I was a sight for sore eves. I looked very much like a grease ball. However, I had a duty to perform. The wicked thought that I could rid the world of a few people, who never would be missed, by not calling the elevator boy, ran through my mind. But it was drowned, for, as long as I never met them again, I didn't care if they lived. HINDA PRITSKER, '38 A psychologist says many men disappear because they just feel they are not wanted.

After combing my hair with special care so that every curlf?j would be in place, I gently, oh, so gently, laid my hat upon my head and proceeded to the downtown section of our city. Upon careful investigation and inquiries from uniformed gentle- men standing in the street directing traffic, I finally found the right place. There were two musty rooms: one, the waiting room, and the other. the room where the damage was done. Finally, after a short interval, during which I had become quite impatient, it was my turn. I felt as though I were walking into a prison as I entered that dark room. Nevertheless, I sat down and immediately assumed the pose I had been practising for weeks-my hands folded in my lap, an angelic smile on my lips, and my eyes gazing off into the distance. But, alas, the photographer Cmean old thingj had quite a different idea as to how I was to look when the picture was taken. I was instructed to look straight into the camera and not open my mouth to smile, because, I was informed, my mouth was too large. Meekly obeying instructions, but inwardly seething with indignation, I allowed this person, who really knew very little about it, to take my picture. I walked out of the studio, utterly disheartened and disappointed, and firmly resolving never again to have my picture taken. SHIRIJQY NoRMAN, '38 l27 Merciless Shooting of Hope Faculty Do you know that the former peaceful UD existence of our teachers has been suddenly broken up by an unusual epidemic of shooting? This shooting of the teachers at unexpected moments has become quite a fad. Now I'd better explain what this is all about or you'll be wondering what is going on in these dear old halls of Hope. The general technique in this. type of shooting is about the same way as any other. The chief difference lies in the weapon, 'Tis a most unusual affair and works backward, so to speak. The Bring procedure of a lethal shooting iron is used and the more unready the victim, the better the shot may be, that is, to all except the aforesaid victim. For, unlike ordinary firearms, something goes in instead of out of this unusual mechanism and, instead of removing the victim from his field of action, it preserves his action for all time. As I said before, this is not always agreeable to the has-been-shot-at , but it's really painless and a hearty chuckle from the victim usually greets these arrested action shots. Perhaps I better finish explaining by saying that this gun is only a miniature camera, commonly called a candid camera. The names of the most vicious gunners have circulated about, and the teachers keep a weather eye open for them. Really, I sympathize with our beloved instructors, for it can't be very easy to try to control one's facial gym- nastics and at the same time get a lesson over effectively. ARTHUR HELGERSON, '37 A Teacher Occasionally teachers are gifted with keen insight into the twisted motives which prompt the almost unaccountable actions of small pupils. I had an old writing teacher, reputedly extremely ancient, no one knew just how old, but he was said to have taught the young mother of one of my class mates, which would make him at least fifty, a venerable age, indeed. At some time in his life, he had acquired a peg leg. No one knew for sure which leg it was, but by shrewd observation we became reasonably sure that the interesting member was his right. I, who up to this time had been a model pupil, became possessed of a satanic impulse to stick a pin into the peg leg. I communicated my inspiration to my friend across the aisle, who approved so vociferously that we were in danger of being discovered on the spot. When the victim stalked up the aisle, I almost lost my nerve, but fear of ridicule overcame my scruples, and, closing my eyes, I shoved! There was a yell, and for a second I stared wildly into a pair of indignant eyes. Curiosity, eh? queried the teacher. 'AY-yes, sir, in a low voice. Then for the benefit of the class let me announce that you may stick pins only in my left leg. I lost it in the war, you know, he added, with a look at my crimson face, and this one does very well when little girls don't make mistakes. Then he Went on to tell us how he lost it, how the doctors put on a new one, and how this artificial one acted. By the end of the period he was a hero, and not one of us but would have fought any boy with temerity enough to suggest pins. MARY FRANKLIN, '37 128 BLUE AND WHITE .ig- SENIOR GIRL CAPTAIN AND CHEER-LEADERS Doodling Doodling is a method, utilized by many people, to express unconsciously their mental state. The realistic or modernistic trend in art is said by many prominent critics to be the development and glorification of the once insignifi- cant doodle. Doodlers may be classified in three main groups: the drummers: the hum- mers, under which classiiication also come the whistlers: and the last, but most numerous group, commonly recognized as the pencil pushers. Doodles express accurately the mental condition of the doodler. It is by the assembling of straight, curved, and circular marks that a true dyed-in-the- wood doodler expresses agitation, concentration, or just a contented idling away of time. Our desk tops recount quite a tale to the diligent doodle-decipherers. For instance, between questions on a test, a doodler traces a path of concentration on the long-suffering desk surface. If the next person to occupy that seat is a doodler, he can readily perceive whether the quiz was diflicult or simple. When the papers are passed in, the doodler blissfully watches the birds in the trees outside his window, while his pencil traces a course of pleasant idleness. Suddenly the scene changes. The doodle depicts a sudden start, fidgeting, and hurried thinking. From this we can deduct the fact that the doodler's reverie was rudely shattered by a sudden question. Thus I have endeavored to impart to the non-doodler the rudiments of the ancient and honorable, most popular of indoor sports, doodling. As doodles are common occurrences you will be able, after this lengthy explanation, to pur- sue by yourself your studies of this most interesting part-time occupation. JAMES FISH, '38 129 This Changing World A changing world?-Well, that's strange, I haven't noticed any changes. 'Course the winters aren't so bad as they used to be in the 'good old days,' and folks are more nerve-crazed than before, what with them new-fangled contrap- tions that run 'round the streets scaring folks out o' their right minds.

Gosh, a fella can't sit with his shoes off, smoking a pipe, in peace on the front porch any more, First thing you know, some skid- addling young colt has put your picture all over the front page of the town news, and makes you the laughing stock of the neighbors. 'Course it gives the town gossips something to talk about and makes them feel real modern like the big city folks. And gossiping, no matter how much human nature changes, will always remain. But as I say, human nature seems to be changing. Why, look at all the gangsters and criminals wandering around. A person isn't safe out on the streets after dark anymore. Why, sa-a-y just a few weeks ago, a friend of mine was held up by masked men down at the crossroads. He hasn't recovered yet- fact, they can't get his shoes off, he froze so stiff when the gun stuck into his ribs. And all these crazy contraptions folks run off to see-moving picture theatres, dance halls, and what not. Can't stay home for a good time any- more. Why, even old Grannie Chicks, who vowed she'd never touch an auto- mobile, is planning to buy one and drive it herself. Just mention age to her and she'll fly up and remind you that her father lived until ninety and died working in the fields-ah, those were the good old days. And Grannie's only seventy, but-dear, dear, she always was highspirited. And look at the young folk: the fillies hobble around on high heels like a bay with a loose shoe. And doing their hair up in curls-they look like a hot dog fried in a waffle iron. The boys seem to like it, though, the way they hang round them. Not like us old fellas when we went courtin'I I remember how Jed Hops was acourtin' Mattie in those spring days. He never did get enough courage to ask her, some day I planned to ask for him. But when I got there, what with spring in my blood and her sweet manners, I had a change of mind and hauled her over to the old Judge Robbin's house myself. I never was sorry, and Mattie was a good little housekeeper. A handsome buxom young womanq I often think of those short years with her- Oh, well, heigho, every dog must have its day.

No such word around here-Emperor and I understand each other. Well, come on, old boy, let's go down and see how Bill is feeling now after his meeting with the bandits. Not much room left in this fast moving world for two old-timers like us. Still, human nature is human nature, but whether the world or human nature is changing, no one knows. HELEN HASTIE, '38 Unrewarded Patience As she moved lithely, yet quietly, into a more favorable position her green eyes glittered with anticipation. A sudden swift leap and the deed would be accomplished. Following the every movement of her victim with those pierc- ing eyes, her tense being sensed that the crucial moment was drawing near. It had arrived! She sprang, alive with sudden fury to reap the reward of her pa- tience. It was too late, The tiny mouse had reached the safety of his hole. MARGARET HOLDEN, '3 9 130 Impatience One last reassuring glance in the mirror and she was ready. Did she have everything? Key-compact-yes, all in her miniature bag. This was to be a gala occasion tonight: it would have to be to compen- sate for her extravagant purchase of the new gown. She knew it was becom- ing, though. Even the sales-girl had noticed how it enhanced the blue of her eyes. He'd like it. It must be eight-thirty by now. He should be here. Last night he had told her to be ready at eight. He liked her to be on time. He hated waiting. Should she go down stairs now, or wait until he arrived? Then she could walk downstairs slowly and greet him in the hall. Once she had read in a magazine that that was the best entrance. But he never noticed things like that-probably he'd start talking to Mother, and then they'd never get out of the house. Mother was sweet, but she liked to be the center of attention. She didn't realize that he was just being polite-that he hadn't come all the way across town to see her. Maybe she had better go down now. Never mind the entrance. It was quiet down here. Mother was in the kitchen, she guessed. The clock on the mantel between the brass candle sticks ticked on monotonously, Nine o'clock! Where was he? He'd be here soon. While she was waiting, she could call Molly. She should have called her last week about the tickets to the church fair. Better not call her now, though: he might try to telephone her. Well, the radio would take up time. Oh! The tube! She had intended to have that Iixed yesterday. Maybe the time would go more quickly if she read. Besides, he wouldn't know then how impatient she was. She'd be very unconcerned when he did come. The telephone! Hello, yes. No, not quite ready yet. I will be in a minute, though! What? Oh-you can't? Not tonight? Sure, I understand- the first of the month-bills to make out. Don't be silly! I'm really too tired to dance tonight, anyhow. Some other time? Oh, sure. Soon, yes! Bye now. She replaced the receiver. FRAN KERNAN, '37 ,-...-.- Spring' When the time of year comes during which you get up an hour earlier than you want to-or used to, anyhow--that's Spring. When a man purposely forgets his neck-tie so that he can at last open his collar for air-conditioning, that's Spring. If, during a class period, a scholar dreams lazily about nothing in particu- lar Cand it isn't loveb, it must be Spring. ' When you start out in the morning in the pouring rain and come home carrying umbrella, raincoat, and rubbers in a gorgeous sunshine for vice-versaj, then it must be the time of year when a young man's fancy turns to something or other. When butter-cups and other meadow flowers begin to bring out with gusto the nature in you, it's Spring. When the world is lilled with mushy poems, songs, and love-letters, or silly writings, it's Spring, to be sure! Hmph! Must be Spring! ALBERT ACORN, '37 131 Hockey Coach Buonanno's Hockey club ended the season in fourth position, after three hard fought play-off games. ln a renewal of their rivalry with the Mount St. Charles sextet, from whom they wrested the title last year, they won the distinction of being the only league team to tie the Mounts during the regular schedule, Captain Art Weston was named an All-State defenceman, and Fran Hannan was placed on the All-State second line. Paul Wholey, Don Wunsch, 'AMr. Morgan Flynn, and Joe Tiernan completed the first six. BASKETBALL Led by Captain Cal Carlone, the Hope quintet won six and lost ten in League competition this season. Three of the losses were by but one basket, and they were a continual threat to the league leaders. Two victories over a smart LaSalle outfit, and an even split with Central highlighted the year. In addition to Captain Carlone, Armand Palmieri, John Bunch, and Hank Williams led the Hope offensive. TENNIS Beaten in only one League match out of six played, the Tennis squad holds the runner-up position in their division. Bernstein, Atwater, Mabel, Kellman, Ostby, and Barrows represented Hope, and in addition to their League victories, a defeat over Moses Brown can be added to their record. 132 Wrestling CITY CHAMPS WRESTLING To Captain Vito Nacci's wrestling squad goes the honor of Hope's only Athletic Championship of the winter. They won the City Championship, defeating Central, and Speigle went on to win an individual crown in the Brown meet. Nice work, Champs. BASEBALL Keeping within striking distance of first place throughout the bulk of the season. the Hope nine was a strong threat throughout the year. Lanny Bucci led the moundsmen, assisted by Ed Holden and San Martino, regular shortstop. Joe Hart, diminutive fielder. led the batters, followed closely by Ben Fertman and Cal Carlone, third and first basemen. respectively. Westberg at catch, Slater at second, and Stepak and Mayforth in the field rounded out the starting lineup. TRACK For the tirst time in years Hope's team strength was under par, but indi' vidual performances provided plenty of cheering for Hope supporters. Earl Fisher in the hurdles, Frank Fletcher in the 880, and Nel Harris in the javelin were consistent point scorers, the first two holding All-State positions. The top performance of the year came in the Brown Invitation meet in which the East's strongest Prep Schools compete. Hope placed fourth, well in advance of all other R. I. public schools. This year's experience should show to advantage in next year's competition. 133 Le Loup et 1'Agneau JEAN DE LA FONTAINE Il importe assez peu de savoir que La Fontaine fut ne a Chateau-Thierry en 1621, qu'il etait fils d'un maitre des eaux et forets, qu'il fit ses etudes il Reims, qu'il herita de la charge de son pere et que malgre le titre imposant de maitre des eaux et forets, il ne lit rien de tout. Mais en 1668 il ecrivit les six premiers livres des Fables, dedies au Dauphin, lils de Louis XIV. Il importe beaucoup de savoir qu'il avait trouve le genre dans lequel il devait s'immorta- liser. Dans les Fables La Fontaine n'a point cherche l'originalite dans l'invention de nouveaux sujets. Il s'est servi des nombreux recueils de fables dans lesquels il pouvait trouver des fables indiennes, des fables grecques en particulier, celles d'Esope. Mais comme il l'a dit lui-meme de son oeuvre, 'lMon imitation n'est point un esclavagef' Il emprunta ses sujets, c'est vrai, mais il les transforma dans ce que les Frangais appellent la veine gauloisef' Les Fables sont pour la plupart de petits recits dans lesquels les animaux font les roles des hommes. Si ressemblantes sont ces images qu'on peut y trou- ver un tableau vif et anime de la societe de son temps QChinardj. La morale de ces Fables n'est pas optimiste, mais il faut bien dire que la morale est celle de la vie. LE Loup ET L'AoNEAU: LA SOURCE: Pour cette Fable l'auteur s'est servi des fables de Bidpai, Aesope et Chaedrus. L'ENSEMBLE: Une sorte de petit drame qui se developpe en six tableaux: Cab Un agneau se desalterait dans le courantg Cbj Un loup survient a jeung Ccj Plein de rage il accuse l'agneau de troubler son breuvage et lui dit qu'il sera chatieg Qdj L'agneau presente des preuves incontestables de son innocence: Cej Ses protestations ne servent de rieng ffl Le loup l'emporte et le mange. Il y a une deuxieme partie-la morale: HLa raison du plus fort est toujours la meil- leure. L'ANALYSE: Nous avons dit que l'on peut trouver dans les images de La Fontaine un tableau de la societe du dix-septieme siecle . Vraiment dans cette fable on reconnait Louis XIV dans le role de loup, et encore les gens du peuple en guise de l'agneau. Quant a la morale on voudrait dire fausse, absurde, mais, malheureusement, c'est Hcelle de la vie . SYLVIA RosE, '37 .. .. 1a A Temper'-amental Turtle Two years ago I became the proud possessor of a little turtle from-of all places-the Ten Cent Store. Rambling through that shopper's paradise one rainy Saturday in May, I came upon a counter where there was placed a large aquarium. Curiosity getting the better of me, I walked over and peered through the rather hazy glass. Partly submerged in a corner in an inch of water were a few turtles with several others crawling aimlessly over them. They were of various sizes, some with black, black and whit, or red stripes on their faces. Idly I watched them. Then I discovered one that seemed more cunning than the others. He had funny little red and white stripes on either side of his face-he appeared to have rouge on! After watching him for several minutes, I decided I wanted him. CContinued on Page 135D 134 .BLUE AND WHITEQ.i4la Ala' sys, f - gmt.: - . ,. TRACK TEAM A Temperamental Turtle CContinued from Page 1345 A few minutes later, carrying an umbrella in one hand and gingerly bal- ancing a box containing a probably bewildered turtle in the other, I ventured out into the spring rain. When I finally reached home, I breathed a sigh of relief. But my problems were just beginning! Where was I to put the animal? I found a bowl which had been used for bulbs, but I discovered that it was too shallow. Tumbletoes, as I promptly christened him because he tumbled incessantly, immediately crawled up the sides and kept me continually on the jump to prevent his falling out of the bowl. I was becoming rather discouraged. A tiny turtle certainly could cause a lot of trouble! At last I solved the problem for the present by placing a small circular rock over the bowl. At least he couldn't crawl out through those small holes! A couple of days later, I scoured the down-town stores for something deep enough to insure his remaining in it. Finally I found an oval, green glass dish. Thankfully, I took it home. I carefully covered the bottom with canary gravel and put in several shells from a collection I had had when I was a child. After I'd filled it partly with water, I placed Tumbletoes in his new home. Glancing in a few minutes later, I discovered that he had disappeared. Then. to my relief, I saw four funny little feetsticking out from under a large shell! This is a trick he has played many times, and his amusing antics often provide us with laughs, He really is a funny little thing, but, nevertheless, playing nursemaid to a temperamental turtle is not all play and no workl BARBARA DEVINE, '3 8 135 Tennis.-It's a M-an's Game Those blasted scalywags are at it again, Doc, I remarked to Doctor Pear- son as we sat sipping our drinks on the club-house porch after a day of he-man's work on the fairways. What do you mean? inquired Doc. I mean tennis. I retorted sharply. Back and forth, back and forth, forever hitting the ball with those glorified flyswattersg it's enough to make one dizzy, I tell you. For women, yes, but for men, huh, sissies, I call 'em! Beg pardon, sir, but did I hear you riding my favorite pastime? It was young Jack Martin who spoke. You mean giving a truthful description of it, don't you, young man? I replied heartily. May I ask, sir, if you've ever tried the game? l'What! I should enjoy my second childhood so early! Young man, I really appreciate your sense of humor, but that's a little bit too much, was my answer. You've no right to ride the game until you have at least tried it, Bill, Doc interrupted. V Very well, I snapped, Then, turning to Jack. I asked, How about a few innings or so? Sets is the word, sir, replied Martin. Have it your own way. A half hour later found me out on the court, a clay field covered with white adhesive tape running at all angles, and that foolish fish net fastened across the middle. What happened during the next two hours, I have neither the desire nor the ambition to recount here. Sufficient to say that I gained sixteen blisters, two legs that will never be the same, and a thoroughly wrenched back, and all this without hitting ONE ball inside of the court! Martin tried to be polite, but it seemed as if my service wasn't at all prompt, my backhand a total mystery, and I really made a hash out of my chops, until at last I had to admit defeat. My conclusions on the game of tennis? Well, sir, you might look at the bulletin board and see who is heading the committee for the advancement of tennis in this club. Sure, it's me. Tennis-It's a man's game!

SQUAD The Hindenburg KTWENTY-ITOUR HOURS LATERD As I sit by the window, buried in thought, the sun slowly drifts behind a gray, ominous-looking cloud. It is the kind of scene one associates with a summer thunderstorm. The sky becomes gray, almost black, then in a few sec- onds, brightens again-the proper sequence of an impending thunderstorm. However, as yet it has not rained, even though the wind blows warningly, and the sky darkens once more. It is strange. It is eerie. I begin to wonder whether it is some work of God, to commemorate and recall to our thoughts Cthough it is still terrifyingly fresh in our mindsj the tragedy that happened twenty-four hours ago: the unbelievable, yet obviously real disaster of the mag- nificent glory of the air: the exploding and burning of the giant German dirigi- ble, Von Hindenburg. It is uncredible to realize that this wonder of the skies, the work of years of careful, loving thought and planning, the ship that cost thousands of dollars to build, has made its last spectacular trip through the sky. The loss of life itself is horrible to imagine. Even those who miracu- lously escaped death may be scarred or crippled for life. The scar of the horror alone will be forever imprinted in their minds. Whether it was sabotage or whether it was some incredulous accident, it is difficult to believe that it has really happened. Germany's pride and joy of the air is now a mass of tangled metal and steel in the U. S. Naval Field at Lakehurst, New Jersey. So, God has sent his message of sympathy through the skies in commemo- ration of the victims, dead and surviving, of the beautiful Queen of the Skies, the Hindenburg. Avis GOYETTE, '38 137 There's a Long, Long Trail A'Winding In the days of Daniel Boone, the covered wagon helped push back the fron- tier. It was the home, means of conveyance, fort, and sometimes ferry boat of the early settlers. Today we have no geographical frontiers to push back, no mountains to climb, no rivers to cross: long, dry plains are not so danger- ous, but the descendants of our ancestors of the Conestoga Wagon still carry on. Perhaps, by now, you've guessed what I am talking about: yes, I mean the trailer. A few years ago, a trailer was only a commercial vehicle, used for hauling and transportation, but today a booming business, increasing by leaps and bounds, is taking the house wife out of the home, and installing her in a sardine can on wheels. If the rent is high or if houses cost too much, what could be better than a trailer? So far they are free from taxes, and, until the politicians awake to an opportunity to reap new harvests in taxes on trailers, they will continue to be so. What does the future hold in store for the trailer family of tomorrow? If the children want to go out to play, will they have to learn to ride motor- cycles to keep up with their house? Will insurance agents and instalment col- lectors have to hire airplanes to keep track of their clients? Whole cities will probably be started, composed solely of trailerites. If they don't like their lo- cation, all they have to do is start their cars and haul the city away. What was a fad, started by summer vacationists, has now become the everyday routine of living of thousands of people. The upkeep on a trailer is negligible, compared to that on a regular house. Instead of worrying about wind storms and fire, a man will more likely have to watch out how fast he takes the curves, and neighbors will become fast friends Cif you can call it thatj when they see each other maybe a week in a year. The children will probably get their education in seven different schools, depending on how much the wan- derlust has hold on papa. Our ancestors had oxen to pull them and took three to five months to get across the country: today we have a car and it takes us from three to five days. They had the open plains: we have the open roads Csometimesj. But enough of this idle talk: our good steeds await us. So step on the starter and we're off to-who knows where? EARL GIFFORD, '37 As I See My School Hope Street High School was once known as the Pride of Providence. I, like the rest of this younger generation, sneered. I thought of the building, the out-of-date classrooms, the overcrowded locker rooms, the study halls which are also lunch rooms, and the old-fashioned assembly hall-but, at the thought of the hall, my sneer began to fade. The hall isn't beautiful like most of the auditoriums of modern schools, but it has a different atmosphere. When I look around and see the many pennants and honors won by boys of this school, I begin to wonder about those boys, and the girls, too, who once thronged this very hall, and perhaps carved their initials deep into the tops of the old, rough desks which were then shiny and smooth. Who are they now? Some have gone to be successful: others have dropped out of sight. Whatever their fate, Hope started them on their way, trained them to meet life as it came to them. Four years within the walls of a school cannot but leave a mark on any young girl or boy. And who can deny that these boys and girls must have left their mark on the school? BERNICE FLINK, '37 138 Mr. Lovett Takes a Trip to New York Mr. Lovett was always right. Nobody could deny it, and one had better not try if he wanted to keep the peace. He was going to New York by auto to visit his brother. There is nothing very startling about going to New York by auto--thousands of people do it, but Mr. Lovett was seventy-five and he had his own ideas about driving. He also had a car which suited his person- ality perfectly. It did just what it pleased when it pleased. There was nothing his family could say that would keep him from going by auto. After all, it wouldn't be the first time he had driven there, and why should he go by train or bus when he had a car? Mrs. Lovett was the only one who didn't mind riding with her husband. Other people would rather walk ten miles than risk riding with him. It wasn't that he was a reckless driver. I don't believe he ever traveled more than twenty-five miles an hour, and that was speeding. He was merely a road hog and a couple of other things. He was convinced that the lights, roads, and traffic officers were there just for his convenience. It would have been sacrilege to stay on the right side of the road. The middle of the road was the place for him. He wouldn't budge for anyone, much less the young man who was behind him when he had miraculously reached New Haven. The man repeatedly blew his horn, for the road was clear and he wanted to pass Mr. Lovett, who was going at a snail's pace, as usual. Finally, Mr. Lovett became so annoyed he suddenly stopped the car right there in the middle of the road. He hadn't given the other man any sign of warning, so naturally there was an awful crash. Fortunately, no one was hurt, but the mudguards and lights of the other car were badly smashed. Mr. Lovett's face grew red with anger. How dared that young whippersnapper bump into him! Why, he'd have the law on him, that's what he'd do! But the tables were turned on Mr. Lovett. He was the one who had to pay the twenty-five dollar fine, and on top of that, he also had to pay for the damages on the other car, as he had never believed in buying insurance. The rest of the trip was quite uneventful, but on the return trip the temperamental car decided that it would like some new tires, so Mr. Lovett had to contend with four blowouts. As it happened on a deserted country road. he had to wait quite a while before a car came by. When the obliging man did tug the automobile to a nearby town, Mr. Lovett had to buy new tires in order to get home. One might think that this trip, which had cost him a pretty penny, would have taught him a lesson, but the last I heard of him, Mr. Lovett was planning to take another trip to New York by auto. ESTHER ROBIN. '38 Vignette Her manner is cool and haughty. She holds her head high, sharp chin upthrust, nose tilted skyward: as if she dared the class to challenge any state- ment she should care to make. Yet, at unguarded moments, her eyes betray that she is lonesome and would welcome an aggressive questioner. Somewhere she has acquired a cool poise and perfection of manner which never leave her. It is like an armor of glass, this poise, brittle and a protection only so long as she allows no strong emotion to shatter it. Therefore, she avoids close friendships or sudden griefs, lest one should catch her unawares and fracture her self-control, MARY K. FRANKLIN, '37 139 Camera Club This term the Annex Camera Club, sponsored by Mr. Bentley Mackin- tosh, has been studying the technique of photography. Regular meetings have been held on different days of the week at the school at 10:30 A. M. At one of the meetings near the beginning of the term, Deming Bacon gave a talk on the subject of lenses. At another meeting Roger Sampson, a club member, spoke on exposure and interior photography. February 8, the club visited the Camera Club of the Providence Engineer- ing Society to hear a lecture on miniature and color photography by Mr. Wolf- man, representing the Leica Company. This very interesting lecture was ac- companied by color slides taken and developed by Mr. Wolfman with his minia- ture camera. March 3, the club attended a lecture on Leica cameras given at the Faunce House Theater. Shortly after the meeting the club visited the School of De- sign to see an exhibit of the hundred best prints taken in 1936 by Providence Journal photographers. At a meeting held at Mr, Mackintosh's house, April 2, the club heard a very interesting talk by Mr. Donald Seamans, a professional photographer, on Commercial Photography . This discussion was accompanied by many in- teresting samples of Mr. Seamans' work for business concerns of Providence. At the same meeting, the following officers were elected: President, Philip Carson: secretary, Deming Bacon: treasurer, Walter Burrows. Mr. Seamans was unanimously elected an honorary member. Track Competition has been close and spirited in the Annex Track season this term. In a novice track meet held at Hope Field, Annex competitors made an excellent showing. The 40-yard dash, 300-yard dash, and broad jump were won by Joe Ender. Don Slocum came in first in the 600-yard run and the 1000-yard run, and got Hrst place in the high jump. Ender and Slocum scored the most points in both the main building and the Annex. The Annex defeated the Nathan Bishop track team in a track meet between the two schools held at Hope Field. Junior Wilcox won the 40-yard and the 100-yard dashes for Hope, after Bishop had won both relay races. The Annex won the meet by a score of 15-14. In February, a track club was organized to give Hope boys a further understanding of track and to encourage more of them to go out for track. The club is under the leadership of Coach Williams. At the second meeting of the club the following officers were elected: Junior Wilcox, president: Earle Fisher, vice-president: Alexander Cwlenn, secretary and treasurer. It is said that a stocking round the face will relieve neuralgia. It is also said that a sock on the jaw will not. . . . Among those present was Miss Ting Ling, belle of the Orient.
