EDITORIAL. Toward a Brighter Future T he class of 1937 will probably always be distinguished as the iirst to graduate from Ipswich High School. We appreciate the honor, although we confess that our pleas- ure is dimmed by one quite obvious circumstance ; our scant six months in the new high school have proved just a tantalizing glimpse into what opportunities are in store for future classes. These classes will have the bene- fit of a broader and more advanced curriculum, including physical ed- ucation and citizenship training. The things that we have planned and hoped for are now about to ma- terialize. Our first year has been spent in organization and in getting- settled in our new quarters, and we have not been able to put a good many of our plans into execu- tion as yet. We have, however, started to use and enjoy some of the facilities that the building of- fers. Unable to wait for formal equipment and instruction, we start- ed to use the long-anticipated gym- nasium. Our humble but enthusias- tic beginnings in basketball fore- shadow our entrance into a wider variety of interscholastic sports than we have ever had. The spacious, airy laboratory has inspired new in- terest in the sciences, and this year a new science course, biology, was added to the curriculum. In years to come we hope that other courses will be offered — more modern languages, sciences, and courses in the fine arts. Perhaps the greatest opportunity that our high school of- fers is in citizenship and social training. The numerous clubs and social organizations have continued on from Manning, and now, with ample space to meet and carry on business, it would appear that they have a chance to increase their ac- tivities and popularity. “School spirit” — a vague term to the out- sider, but one universally used in school affairs — is really stronger than it has been for several years. An example of this is in the inter- class basketball games which drew a large, enthusiastic following. The roof v as fairly raised with the cheering on some afternoons when rivalry was particularly intense. The whole school showed real in- terest in the teams, the plays, and the scores. This increase in school spirit has sowed the seeds for the Beginnings of student government, so that next year the students will start to take some of the responsi- bility of governing the school into their own hands. The system will be enlarged as their executive powers and capabilities for accept- ing responsibility are developed. We, the class of 1937, rejoice with the rest of the school that the goal for which we have hoped and striv- en is becoming more attainable. Even though we leave this year, we shall follow with interest the strides taken toward fulfillment of our hopes. 14
