in his class and continue pester- ing her as it has been noticeable for the past year. May this be a warning to the teachers. To Camille Comeau, the privilege of wearing long pants to school without being laughed at. To John Comeau, our advice to moderate his rate of talking for then when he speaks French the rest of the class may have time to translate what he has said.

To Doris Jedrey and Mae Levesque, a step-ladder and a yeast cake that they may rise up and be seen as well as heard. To Marion Kinnear, the right to feel happy for it is the last year that she has to get up at five and ride in jitnies until she arrives at school at eight o’clock. To Sophie Kobos, the right to sit in the corner seat in Room IV since she has managed to keep the cor- ner seat in Room II so long.

To Stanley Machaj, our hope that his football team will play more games than the team did this year without any interruptions, and whitewashes all the oppo- nents by a large score.

school and be no longer looked down on as the most insignificant students in school. Item: The right to feel happy for they will no longer have to stay up late at night trying to imitate the ovals and letters of the Palm- er and Zaner Methods. Item : The right to be proud since after a year’s practice they can surpass some of the present sen- iors in the art of penmanship. Item : The privilege of seeing their names more often in the “Cub” joke department for their poor attemps at translating foreign languages. Item : The advantage of having cov- ers on their desks to protect them from stray blackboard erasers and also the eyes of the teacher. To the Sophomores : Item : The right to supply class rings to the rest of the school and cause disturbances by dropping them on the floor. Item : Our sincere wish they do not have to take seniors to fill out the places of the bashful junior boys in the Grand March, at their Junior Prom. Item : The honor of decorating the town hall for the graduation ex- ercises. Item : The right to become more dignified and have chapel with with the seniors.

To William Angelos, the right to be instrumental in reducing the amount of tardiness by devising some method of waking the stu- dents on his early morning rounds. To Jarvis Appleton, the right to torture others after having been tortured and tormented for three years himself. To Barbara Bickerton, our advice that she write a book on “The Dangers of a Chemistry Labora- tory” since she has had a great many narrow escapes there. To Elizabeth Boynton, two stop signs to be placed at each end of a short street where she may learn to drive without endanger- ing the lives of the public. To Russell Arnold, a muffler, for then when he explains a problem in Math, the students in Room II will be able to study in peace. To Norman Baxter, a permanent wave to replace the temporary one which all the girls found so attractive at the junior party. To Pauline Burke, a seat on the ra- diator so she won’t have to wear her coat in school every day. To Fred Casali, a seat beneath the ventilator and we hope that he will not hereafter have to take his collar and necktie off in mid- winter. To Gertrude Ciolek, we suggest that she try to break the coast-to- coast walking record since she has had a great deal of training while hiking for an “M” and might as well make use of it.

of knowing it is the last year she will have to drive down that long wilderness trail to school. To Lavinia Robishaw, the right to play on the boys’ basketball team provided she promises not to be too rough. To William Rice, a set of vest- pocket editions of his school books so that he will not become round-shouldered carrying his bag home at night. To Frances Ross, some wire netting and a fly swatter to be used for protection if she is ever visited again by the bee that visited her in Room I and caused her so much worry and trouble. To Anthony Starsiak, a dozen bot- tles of growing compound to take until he grows large enough to make his voice seem natural. To Alex Szklarz, the right to feel assured of a position in the out- field next year for four seniors in the outfield positions graduate this year. To Emily Saunders, a position this summer where she may expand her lung surface about eight feet and be able to talk so clearly and loudly that when she spealcs in the basement you will be able to hear her in the hall. To Hilda Saunders, our suggestion she join the circus for she is quite adept at tieing the bow knots with the lace on the back of her dress which Wile prefers to see untied. To Catherine Sheehan, our advice that she walk to school, for it would be an easy way to gain a letter or emblem and would be good for her health. The only small difficulty would be that she would have to get up at three o’clock in the morning. To Chandler Todd, a trailer to at- tach to the back of the Rowley jitney for he might find it very helpful in performing the duty of carrying the other “fellers’ ” bags home. To Wilfred Poor, a rattle and a suit of babies clothes to be worn only when coaching on the baseball team and for the sole purpose of totally unnerving the opposing pitcher. We have found him quite effective without that equip- ment this year but we think he will be able to do far better with it. To Elizabeth Smith, a leather medal, for she has been seen to keep quiet, for two consecutive study periods. Who else in school could keep still for five minutes in a study period ? To Walter Waz, our advice to fasten his gloves to his coat with two pieces of raw hide that he may never carelessly lay them down again and walk off and leave them. To Dorothy Willcomb, a settee to be placed on her piazza that she and her boy friends will not have to run the risk of breaking their necks sitting in a precarious posi- tion on the railing. To Eleanor Sheppard, an old accor- dion with keys upon it so she may practice this summer and be able to write ninety words per minute when she comes back in the fall. To Grace Woodburn, a pair of box- ing gloves which she may use on her brother when he does not mind her and toe the line when they are coming over on the jit- ney. To David Williams, a night cap to wear when he retires at night that he may never be tardy on account of spending too much time trying to find that perfect part in his hair. To Stella Zlyka, a copy of the deaf and dumb language that she may converse freely with her friends even when the teacher has not turned her back upon her. To Helen Zervas, a translation of all the senior Latin books that she and her friends may be able to do something else during study pe- 26
