' BLUE AND WHITE CLASS MEMORIAL We, the Class of '31, knowing that our days in the halls of Hubbard High School are numbered, do, as a class, declare ourselves in favor of founding a museum to perpetuate the name and honor of the class. We hereby appoint Mr. Cox, our class adviser, as curator of this collection, to guard and to keep it as a sacred trust in memory of the Class of '31, We ask that this collection be exhibited in a conspicuous place so that following classes may see our great and notable achievements and profit by them. Following this declaration, our class president, William MacDonald, called on each member of the class to present his contribution and Anna Laura quickly decided that a 1931 Blue and White must be a part of this exhibit and Helen Wentz presented the originals of the drawings for the annual. Helen Sander hated to part with her typewriter, but it was pretty well burned up any way, and truly looked like a museum piece. Nellie and Hilda decided that the faculty needed a perpetual example of an amiable disposition so each left a part of hers. In the athletic section Luke placed his gold football, for will if he can get it backb g Virginia and Sam, their precious basketball H'sg Emma her interest in basketball, and Sam Black, an unquestioned eligibility record. Into the educational department went Harry Wylde's Virgil book, good as newg Elizabeth and Alma's OK'd chemistry experiments, and one of Dorothy's text books bulging full of papers just to show what a real student's book should look like. John Fleser added his English-Roumanian dictionary and Laura Belle presented a rare specimen-an A Virgil paper. Ruth Drissen reluctantly parted with her Second LiVre, which she claims is her best friend. Elsie McKenzie added her own famous book, How To Be Dignified Though a Senior. Ed. Sovik, John Tiedy, Paul Mathews and Kenneth Barnes ofered a collection of dime novels but Miss Toy objected saying that she never would get succeeding senior classes to read their Twelve Centuries if those things were about, so the lot was consigned to the wastebasket. Ray Murphy left a clock with the hands pointing to 3 a. m. which he says is the hour at which his studies allow him to retire. Angelo added a sheaf of geometry theorems worked out in French class and John Corbin exhibited a model A typing exercise, Mary Elizabeth offered her report card as an incentive to juniors to study hard. -- I 9 3 l Page twenty '

BLUE AND 'WHITE IN I95 I While on an extended visit to the Elysian Fields in the year 1931, Bill McDonald, class president, received from Mohammed, a magic crystal guaranteed to reveal the future of all mortals. At a secret class meeting Bill brought forth this globe and each senior was allowed to peep into its mystic depthsg it revealed that every senior will have attained some brand of Fame, on or before September 1, 1951. At that time Fredrick Armitage will have a telegraph station of his own--in Iceland, and Paul Mathews, a great scientist, has discovered what brand of cheese the moon is really made of. It did not surprise us to know that John Corbin has discovered a radio that doesn't need tubes, bat- teries, or a loud speaker. Kenneth Barnes was adopted by Einstein be- cause he and his wife Patricia have designed a self-propelling rocket by which they have determined the distance from Brookfield to Hubbard. Of course, it would scarcely take as Crystal Globe to tell us that Nick, due to Miss McKinney's coaching, has had a wonderful career in Grand Opera, or that John Evans is playing in the movies with Clara Belle as the leading lady. A glimpse of Hilda Hall and Evelyn Neider as radio announcers is revealed. Roy Kennedy and Harold Moyers have de- veloped into movie directors with their studios located at Harding Park. Harry Wylde's superior dancing ability has enabled him to Win fame as the world's greatest non-skid, toe-proof professor of Hubbard. Harry was very much pleased with this but the class could hardly believe it. John Fleser, as judge of Trumbull county, has appointed Melvin Bailey as official county snow shoveler from May 1 to Sept. 1 and Carl Pasceralla as county shrubbery trimmer from Oct. 1 to Mar. 1. Kenneth Reillynhas secured a position as draftsman. He controls the opening and shutting maneuvers of windows. Bill McDonald is president of the United States. Mary Stephens and Evelyn Nash have opened a confectionary store and kisses are a special feature from 10 to 11 P. M. Dorothy Hatton has be- come a lawyer and is doing fine in her business. Most of her clients are men. Jack Doyle has become an undertaker so he won't be troubled with back seat drivers. Mildred McMurray has a manicure parlor and has made almost enough money toretire. Margaret Williams has a iine position picking warts off the pickles in Heinz's Pickle Factory. The globe also revealed a name plate on a door of a neat little cot- l 9 3 I Page tweniy-two
