From the day when first we start, Each in life to play his part, ’Til we reach that perfect peace Where all toil and care shall cease, Fate can nothing better send Than a true and loyal friend.” — Julius Sieger In Memoriam Our friend and classmate WILLIAM VAN WINKLE ABBOTT October 1, 1921 — August 10, 1938 One year ago; — what loves, what schemes Far into life! What joyous hopes, what high resolves, What generous strife!” . Now his life is done.

Marshall, Principal I N many respects June is perhaps the most important month of the year because thousands of boys and girls are being graduated from secondary schools all over the country, and thousands more are being graduated from colleges and universities. To most of these young people the most serious problem is to adjust themselves and to fit themselves into the work of the world. Class day orators and com- mencement speakers have for years used as their topics What the Future Holds for You” and How Best to Prepare Yourself for this Future”. All of this is sound advice, and should be heeded, but unfortunately in the excitement of graduating, receiving diplomas, and the various social activities connected with it these words may be lost to some graduates. If I might add my one thought for your guidance, it would be this. Presumably as graduates of a high school, you have at your command certain knowledge. According to the dictionary, knowledge is that which is gained and preserved by knowing; while wisdom is the ability to judge soundly and deal wisely with facts or the capacity to make use of knowledge. Knowledge and wisdom form a strong team when they pull together. Much ♦ ♦ SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS — Photo by Vantine Left to Ri°ht : Frances Cahoon, Treasurer; Elwood Mills, Vice-President; Ralph Long, President; Joseph Miskell, Secretary. wisdom with little knowledge will be some- what weak, but will often accomplish quite re- markable things. On the other hand, much knowledge with little wisdom may prove quite ineffective. There are many examples of men whose success in life was due principally to innate wisdom rather than to knowledge, and it seems to me that if one does not have wis- dom and knowledge in liberal measures work- ing together, it is preferable to have pre- dominant wisdom. A noted character a few years ago once said, When I was twenty, I knew twice as much as I do now, and the way things are going if I should live to be seventy- five, I don’t expect to know anything.” This philsophy, I hope, will show you the need to apply wisdom with what knowledge you have, and as you follow your chosen path, you will find that education will place tools into your hands. All of us will be watching to see what use you can make of these. Many of you doubtless have a share of good sound sense and this will grow with use and experience. You should try to succeed by merit, not by favor. A dependable man is always valuable, and to be dependable rest assured that he must be possessed of both wisdom and knowledge.

After the payment of our just debts and Commencement charges, we bequeath the resi- due of the treasury to the junior class and advise that they be more prompt in paying class dues than we were. To the student body as a whole, the Class of 1939 wills all the traditions of Lawrence High School, to treasure and keep untarnished. To Simmons, Mixer, Hatch, and Barry of the Class of 1940, Joe Spooner and Ralph Long leave their ability to stir up trouble without getting mixed up in it. To Muriel Gediman is willed Eleanor Irish’s outstanding literary ability, with the provision that Miss Gediman promise to do as well as Eleanor. Virginia Hall and Elwood Mills bequeath their athletic prowess to Connie DeMello and Jimmie Wright, respectively. Frannie Cahoon leaves her large wardrobe, in trust, to her sister, Becky”. Ted Economides leaves his romantic and playful spirit to anyone who cares to be burdened with it. Betsey and Phyllis Studley entrust their highly prized sisterly love” to Polly and Marion Lord, and their interest in the laundry business to anyone who is interested. Art Robichaud refuses to leave anything. All he wants is to leave. Johnny Corey leaves his dimples to Lester Crane. If they don ' t become you, Lester, you can always transfer them to your elbows. Casanova” Cassidy leaves his role to Wesley Bourne. Harry Richardson, the blushing rose”, leaves a box of powder to Dick Barry to cover Dicks’ blushes. He’s little, he’s wise, He’s a terror for his size.” Buddy Miskell leaves this poem to Lanky” Soule.

George Joe Duck” Stevenson, the sheik ( ? ) of the class, leaves that scram” look to those many Junior boys who are bothered by the girls.

Mary Ferreira leaves her speaking ability and finger nails to Lila Haram, providing Lila can remember the points. (Both of speech and fingernails).

In testimony whereof we hereunto set our hands and in the presence of three witnesses declare this to be our last will this thirteenth day of June in the year one thousand nine hundred and thirty-nine. Witnesses: Flat Foot Floogie F. D. R. Jones Little Sir Echo THE LAWRENCIAN 23 Class Prophecy Girls — Harry Richardson — Boys — Alary Cobb I FELL into a deep, deep slumber, after a strenuous game of golf, And in my dream of years to come were some events that made me laugh. First I drove into Radio City, one Barbara Berg to observe. She was playing Bob’s bazooka”, and she had f lenty of nerve. While walking down 5th Avenue, I met our Mary Cobb. She said she ran a racket and ruled a wicked mob. For ten pennies I went to the Opera; there our meek Annie Hart to find Singing Jazz o’er a grand, stately mountain and sounding just like wind. And then I went to the Y. W. C. A. to watch Virginia Hall Take on all comers in Tiddly-winks, to no ad- vantage at all. Twas after all a mighty shame, for Bernardine Sabens won that game When Winifred W eeks, a bit inane, had yelled out loud, her Johnnie’s name. I met Miss Muriel Robertson, who ' d gotten very plump, She told me that she’d got that way from living at the dump. Inside a beauty parlor I did see a gray -haired lady, Mildred Green , As manicurist, not too keen, and she really was, oh, far too lean. I did not find her in a park, but in the New York Zoo, Lois Robinson, training seals to do the famous Suzie-Q. Twas in a Harlem nightclub, where finally we all met Phyllis Studley, quite the lady, teaching boys just how to pet. After miles of weary travel, I did not feel too merry, And left New York to see the world, in the Lillian Mott a Ferry. While this appeared strange to me, a stewardess on this line to see, Yet Pauline Roderiques, it seemed, was really the best that there could be. Now just to hear Neota Peters trying hard to dance and sing Was just a joy, when she turned The Marseillaise’’ right into swing. In the Barnum and Bailey Circus and really twice her size, Was Gertrude Crocker as the belle; can you picture my surprise? Can you imagine as a maid in any circus show, Eetty Hulten juggling in an act, two barrels of rinso”? At Central Park, just after dark and sitting on a bench, I found poor little Sarah Franco, reading poetry, in French. On a farm right in New York, was tiny Adwilda Judd, Researching for science, Why cows still chew their cud”. Twas Margaret Medeiros who finally reached great fame, By marrying her French Count, merely for his name. At the World ' s Fair in Woods Hole, Mass., atop a perisphere, Stood Lillian Ficus, drawing eyes from far and near. Alis Parker donned her veils, to do a Sallv Rand, And Angelina Veiga then produced her famous band. To my surprise I found Kathleen Vallis At the World’s Fair, advertising Vitalis”. The Girl Scouts had an outing there, and were very proudly led, By Councillor Fernandes. Julia, I should have said. I watched the many guides, parading in the sun, But none looked smarter there than Olive Peterson. My very next encounter was with graceful Charlotte Hubbard, Who was tuning pianos, making quite a hubbub. And in an old, old cottage, built deep out in the wood, I met Annetta Hubbard playing Little Red Riding Hood”. On the silvery sands of Falmouth Beach, I met Virginia Wilde, Modeling bathing suits, while the summer bugs” went wild. And well-dressed as a gypsy, at our annual lawn-fete, 24 THE LA WRENCIAN Strutted Catherine Ferreira, well, really not too sedate. At our Annual Town Meeting, where some- body had sent her, Mary Ferreira was elected to head Community Center. At this same time, Barbara Welch became the great trainer Of the welter-weight champion, little Lorraine Gaynor. Christine McAdams’ name was seen on many posters, For selectmen then were sliding in on little kiddy coasters. The only poetess of any fame, Eleanor Irish, always well-painted, Recited in just an hour, Gone with the Wind”, then fainted. In going to mail a letter, whom should I meet but Anne McKenzie, As post-mistress of Waquoit; she was certainly in a frenzie. I read of a golf match with Patty Berg, the be t of all you really know; Well, Anita LaBonte got nine holes in one, and after all she stole the show. And then to see the Clark expedition, on their trip to Hong Kong, Where Elva Clark bids a sad farewell to her Harvard boy gone wrong”. At the Florida Auto-Race, Jean Morrison won all the cakes, For ninety miles an hour would win most any stakes. Betsey Stud ley, just Stud, for short, Is now a laundry-woman, believe it or not. Gertrude Grew was seen at the Fair, Riding side-saddle on her ole gray mare”. And after that I awoke from my dream. When Frances Cahoon started to fish in a stream. Hartley Cassidy, as always, smooth and wise, Is running an escort bureau of considerable size. George Stevenson is the author of the meaty tome Thirty Thousand Reasons Why Girls Leave Home”. We are awfully surprised at Elmer White. He is now a tranquil minister and does every- thing that’s right. The moving picture industry claimed John T ait. He doubles for Tarzan calling for his mate. In any corner drugstore you can see Bud Denny Decorating bubble gum; chew it for a penny. Chinky Parker became a success. If you please, He is now very busy raising thoroughbred fleas. Elmer Sylvia is a person of great renown. He has become town crier in old P-town. Ralphie Long became a great debater And, of all things, is a woman hater. Last night I read an interesting story, Called Advice to the Lovelorn”, by Johnny Corey. You could have knocked me for a round of loops. I found Hank Borden designing bathing suits. Edward Perry has proved to be very energetic. He sprints from door to door selling women’s cosmetic. Art Robichaud, so handsome, so blond, and so grand, Finally made Broadway (he runs a taxi stand). Joe Spooner became a whizz scientific. His inventions are quaint and very prolific. John Silva is now a big-business man. He sells Woods Hole sea-water in a two- gallon can. Remember George Freeman, so glib and per- suasy? He’s burst into movies and drives the girls crazy. And Robert McDonald, our own gallant Bob Chose the ice patrol for his chilly job. Joseph Costa, Jr., has reason to have umph!” He has just been put in charge of the Woods Hole dump. Famous for their trumpetry were Lehy and Jones Now, they still blow high and low with awful overtones. Eltvood Mills (so I’m told) had a very dire fate. He was thrown off Mashpee’s football team for being underweight. About Gene Young Fm not much surer, But rumor has it, he subs for the Fuehrer. Ralph Sanderson, our Salty” of the seas, Is now a salesman of B. V. D.’s. Harry Richardson, our most fashionable dresser, Has just invented a deluxe pants presser. Albert Perry ' s job is really quite grand. He’s a handsome leader of a jitterbug band. George Cassick always thought he’d be a sec- ond Gable, But now he works at Waldorf’s and waits on table. Bernie lssokson’s job is coming along elegant. He works very hard, fitting glasses on an elephant. THE LAWRENCIAN 25 A stately position is that of James Hall’s. He is now employed by Suffolk Downs, look- ing after all the stalls. Lawrence Antonellis, so bashful and hesitant, Came to no good — he’s an Alcatraz resident. And dear Bobby Wilson, he sure has made good. He patented an auto with a cellophane hood. To save the world through politics is Elmore Thrasher’s fate. He’s been elected dictator; we hope it’s not too late. Antone Vieira and Tony Vidal of Trips Here and There’’ Will sell you tickets to go anywhere! In radio, Ernie Upton’s made his reputation. Tune in most anytime and hear his Beauty dissertation. Theodore Economides, Teddy”, for short, Is a foreign ambassador, I’m glad to report. Joseph Miskell has really profited by his knowledge. He has just been made President of Teaticket College. Class History Kathleen Vallis, Virginia Wilde SOPHOMORE YEAR— 1937 Class Officers — President — Elwood Mills Vice-President — Robert McDonald.

M. 26 THE LAWRENCIAN Freak Day B ABY carriages, the modern and ingenious conveyance to school; gay nineties bath- ing suits, the latest fashion for campus and af- ternoon tea — at least that’s what Annetta and Charlotte Hubbard portrayed on May 19, when L. H. S. held its annual and traditional All Freak Day. And thus it goes, from one ex- treme to the other, when vivacious and witty seniors put their heads together and emerge with something a little more freakish than usual. Although Joe Duck was considered the most original and ingenious, Tiger, our self-appointed mascot, immediately disagreed with the majority and took a violent dislike to the appropriate costume, and thus enlivened the freak parade with a bit of fancy barking and dancing. Among the participants in this imposing procession were included Grandma and Grandpa, Indian Chief, Hula Hula dan- cers, and everything under the sun , even a bit of embellished statuary. Farewell Message Tis not the thought of leaving you That fills our brains with worry. We think, no doubt, that tears are due, Yet w ' e do not feel sorry.

Got to the Canal after what seemed hours and were greeted by large delegations of Cape parents and friends wishing us Boa Voyage”. About 11:00 the boat started to roll and most of us went on deck. It is now long after 2:00 and it looks as though no one will sleep tonight. Saturday , April 1 Got my first glimpse of New York skyline this morning. Thrilled! Directly after dock- ing we joined Warrensburgh, New York, High School in a brand new $14,000 bus. After going through the Holland Tunnel and viewing the Newark Airport and Shanty-town, we settled down for a good rest. Arrived in Philadelphia at noon and saw the Betsy Ross house and Independence Hall. Lunch! Trip from lunch to Washington was uneventful. Arrived Wash- ington about 5:30, unpacked, ate dinner, and then went to see Kay Kayser where Hope Cotter and Ginnie Hall participated in his class of musical knowledge. Ginnie won a five dollar bill! Sunday, April 2 Got up early and went to church. Went to Mount Vernon this morning. On the way we passed cherry blossoms and were disappointed because they were white. We toured Arlington Cemetery and tried out the President ' s chair in the outside memorial auditorium. Went to the impressive Lincoln Memorial next. Spent the afternoon in the Natural History Museum and the Smithsonian Institute. In the museum there were a whale from Provincetown and a fish from Woods Hole. Went swimming be- fore supper to cool me and my feet. Went to Library of Congress, saw the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence. Monday, April 3 Visited Franciscan Monastery this morning. Went to Bureau of Printing and Engraving. Had our pictures taken in front of Capitol. Saw the House and Senate in session. Looked and listened- at the Whispering Gallery”, the strangest thing I have ever seen. At the White House we saw the usual room; allowed visit- ors. Went to the Washington Monument and climbed up — and down the steps. This after- noon we went to the Naval Academy. It was Phyllis Studley’s 17th birthday today, so we had a cake to celebrate. Tuesday. April 4 Am I glad I went to bed early last night! Quite a few kids had occasion to remember that ' those who sleep, never weep . Enjoyed tour of Federal Bureau of Investigation. Spent rest of morning in zoo — second largest in world. Left after lunch for Luray. Drove along the Sky-line Drive. Southern fried chicken for dinner. And was it good! Found the caverns tonight where we learned the difference be- tween stalagmites and stalactites. Came back to hotel and bed. My poor feet — I wonder if they ' ll ever come back to normal! Wednesday, April 5 Traveled from Luray to York, Pa., today Somewhere in the wilds of Virginia, we came to a bridge whose capacity was five tons, so the busses had to empty and we walked over ahead of them. We stopped in Charles- town, West Virginia, and while we were in a drug store a woman came up and asked us where we all were from. We told her Fal- mouth, Cape Cod, and it turned out that she summers here on Shore Street. We visited Gettysburg and not only saw where Lincoln delivered his famous address, but drank sodas underneath the second floor room where he wrote it. Thursday, April 6 We left York early this morning and visit- ed Valley Forge in the pouring rain. After arriving in New York, we went to the Roxy Theatre and then we toured Radio City. Mr. Marshall walked down to Times-Square with a few of us where we bought a Cape Cod Standard-Times. Friday, April 7 Most of us got up early this morning and did” the shops. After lunch went on a tour of New York City. Saw everything from Riverside Drive to Chinatown. Saw the Bowery, and Market Street, and the Ghetto. We sailed at 5: .30 and watched the receding skyline until six; then went below for supper. Danced a while, and then to bed. Saturday, April 8 Home again! Arrived in Boston twenty minutes late, time enough to miss the Cape train. Had a grand time wasting away five hours until the next train, with twenty-nine cents in my pocket. Arrived at last in Fal- mouth. No sky-line to thrill, but how welcome a sight were the familiar buildings and faces! u L £ � cud r : w ; o o i U H g -c O u C TO G J O §11 5 £ Q I (S | 3 U to to to _. j A a w - o!3-5 sag; --q « 3 b.e- ,9 O 3 - 6 !

Dear George, I hope you will forgive me for not answer- ing your letter immediately, because I have been very busy lately with my school work. In your last letter you gave me the impres- sion that you would be interested to know some of the differences between the system and regulation of the American high school and our Greek high school. As I wrote you some time ago, the school system here in Falmouth differs very much from ours in Greece; that is why 1 found it a little complicated in the beginning of the school year. Here they have only one type of high school in which boys and girls can get their education together, the mixed schools as we call them. In Greece there are separate schools for boys and girls and most of them are pri- vate. The subjects are almost the same, except Greek Literature, religion, and European His- tory which we have over there; as for the hours and the number of years, they are exactly the same as in Greece. There is a difference in the divisions of periods though. Lawrence High School has seven periods, with only one twenty-minute rest period during lunch time instead of five fifty-minute periods with ten minutes rest between each. Besides the Classical and Commercial Courses which we have over there, the American high school in- cludes a Vocational Household Arts Course and an Agricultural Course. Perhaps you may want to know about the marking system, which of course differs from ours; so here it is. As I recall, we get marks every day in our home work: 10 is excellent; 9, good; 8, fair; and 5 passing but unsatisfac- tory. In the American schools we have tests every week, but in Greece, as you know, we have examinations only twice a year, mid- years and finals; and if we don ' t get passing marks, we simply have to take the same sub- ject all over again next year. Here the stu- dents are given a better opportunity; that is, you can take the test over, in order to raise your mark, which of course helps a lot. Now, after a whole year of hard work, I can compare the system and methods very easily. 1 sincerely think that the best system exists in the American schools, because they give the student a much better opportunity in almost everything, than we get over there. As you know, the system of learning in our schools is the memorizing type; here it is the opposite; the Americans use the question meth- od, which I find helpful. You know, George, one thing which has puzzled me through the year is the great amount of individual freedom that the students have here. I mean the unusual informality be- tween teachers and students. Before I close my letter, I want you to know a few things about a new class of which I have had the good fortune to be a member. It is a class in which we learned how to speak before an audience and how to use and pronounce the words correctly. As I’m leaving Lawrence High School, my friend, I have only one wish to make and that is, that the school authorities and particularly Mr. Allen, the teacher of this class, will insist on the existence of this Ex- pression Class, for I do know that it will help others, as it has helped me so successfully. Now my time is running short and I must close, hoping that I have given you enough information about Lawrence High School. Write soon and tell me all about yourself and family. Your friend, Ted Economides OUR FRIEND FROM ATHENS We have, in our midst at L. H. S., a gradu- ate of Athens High School. His name is Theodore Ourania Economides, and he was born in Athens, Greece, in 1919. Theodore, after being graduated from Athens High School, wanted a United States high school diploma; this desire is at present being ful- filled, and he is staying at the home of his sis- ter, Mrs. Ernest Helmis, on Walker Street, during the realization of his wish. He has been in this country for five years, and he has been with us since the beginning of this school term. During his L. H. S. campus days, Theodore has taken up three English courses, including one course in oral English. At pres- ent, his plans are rather indefinite on account of the European situation, but eventually he hopes to continue his education at Athens University. THE LAWRENCIAN 35 —And The Best Will Come Back To You Eleanor Irish, Editor IVE the world the best you have and J the best will come back to you!” — a fine motto, but — . For many of us in the class of 1939 this will be a very difficult motto to live up to. It has been the daily habit of the seniors (I’m one of them and consider myself the voice of experience ) to be satisfied with getting a G grade. We hardly expected a present of a higher mark and could not feel resentful. I don’t think there hardly ever was a time we did our best, nor did the best ever come back to us. Now we are starting on a different footing than before. Many classmates will leave Fal- mouth. We will be in contact with new peo- ple — people with different ideas, etc. Business executives, college professors, government di- rectors will all form opinions of us anf we fervently hope they will be good opinions but whether they are or not depends on us. Now there will be no gentle, persistent prodding to have this or that done; no more reminders that work must be in by 2:10; no ever-willing, yet helpful criticism to keep our toes to the mark. We must work for our own sakes and our own names, not just for duty or a salary. There is only one way to live up to our motto and that is by trying and striving for the best. Per- haps we could look at it as an experiment or game. We could try to give the world the best we have and see if the best will come back to us. Many happy returns and good luck!! Adieu Saddest hours are spent in parting And we share this sorrow now Into the wide world we are starting With our motto as our vow. As swiftly the hour of parting draws near We cherish thoughts of days gone by An! t ' me serves only to endear Moments we shared in Lawrence High. The cumbersome path which lies beyond Leads us onward toward success. Thus we must sever our friendly bond And say farewell to L. H. S. 36 THE LAWRENCIAN L. H. S. Bids You Farewell Betty Davis, Associate Editor, ’40 T HE active members of Lawrence High School reluctantly bid farewell to the Class of ’39, realizing that only through per- sistence and inspiration will we be able to fill the gap left by your departing class. Each de- parting class makes way for a new group with new interests and goals to be attained in life, but leaves behind it a cherished record to be reached and surpassed by each succeeding class. Graduation, or more correctly commence- ment into a new life, opens new vistas. Some of you will attend institutions of higher learn- ing; others will assume trades, and still others will take up domestic affairs. Whatever you may choose, we sincerely hope that you will remember that the faculty and students of this school are thinking of you, believing in you, and feeling confident that, with each member doing his part in his own particular chosen field, this world will be much improved. Therefore, with Loyalty, Honor, and Service” constantly urging you to new goals, we are sure that you will give to the world your best. ♦ ♦ ♦ Lawrencian Wins C. S. P. A. Medalist Award W ITH a slight lift of the eyebrows and a shrugging of the shoulders, many skep- tical friends have said, Beginner’s luck!!” Perhaps that is so, but it wa sn ' t chance nor fate that planned our winning of the Medalist Award in the Columbia Scholastic Press Asso- ciation Contest. A competent staff and an in- spiring faculty adviser are the only answer to skeptical friends. Perhaps it might interest you to see how the Lawrencian was rated. For the make-up of the magazine, which includes the cover, title- page, other pages, type, page layout and art, we received 312 points out of 345 (the maxi- mum score). As to the content of our issue the rating of 430 out of 490 points proved the value of our fiction, verse, essays, feature;, sketches and shorts, editorials, humor and at- mosphere. The departments received an excellent shown ng with 110 out of a possible 115. Activities, alumni, and sport columns come under the heading of departments. Last but not least was the favorable score of 40 out of 50 points for advertising. All these various figures sum up to two things — our score of 892 from the maximum score of 1,000 and the Lawrencian s proud ownership of the Medalist Award. Class Ode Anita Helen LaBonte Three years ago we entered here Oh Law ' rence High, to thee we lift With trials hard to meet, Our hearts in grateful praise, And now w ' e’re going to leave thee soon There is no spot on earth so dear In victory, not defeat. So filled with happy days. Creator of our destinies Where friendships true are nigh May fortune send her richest gifts To thee, Oh Lawrence High. 38 THE LAWRENCIAN — Photo by Thomson Front row: Mary Cobb, Eleanor Irish, Muriel Gediman, Edna Cole.

Dramatics Club Presents Play Lawrence O N May 25, 1939, the L. H. S. Dramatics Club presented Hold Everything’’, a sparkling comedy of errors. Filled with hilar- ity and suspense, it occasioned many laughs and smiles from an interested and appreci- ative audience. The leading roles were enact- ed by George Stevenson ’39, popularly known as Joe Duck”, and Eleanor Irish, editor-in- chief of the Lawrencian. Christopher Morgan, bank president, (Law- rence Antonellis), wants his daughter Connie to marry Courtney Barret, Jr., the son of an old friend of his. The two young people run away from each other, only to meet at a tour- ist home. Amid the excitement of a bank robbery, the ominous rattle of voodoo beans, and the screams of Noibre, the colored maid, (Norma Peterson), Courtney and Connie fall in love. In a bang-up climax the bank rob- Antonellis bers are caught, Mr. Morgan recovers his money, and the two lovers are happily united. Joseph Spooner and Elmer Sylvia, as the crooks, succeeded in creating an atmosphere of tense expectation and surprise. Niobe con- stantly provoked laughter by rolling her eyes about in a weird manner. Frederick C. Allen, head of the England Department, directed the play with the assistance of Miss Barbara T. Follansbee. Miss Ruth Kramer was in charge of ticket sales and Miss Kathleen Arenovski, in charge of make-up. Other members of the cast were as follows: Mrs. Gibbs — Muriel Gediman. Her Daughters — Virginia Rowe, Priscilla Hildreth, Edna Cole. Detective — Ralph Sanderson. Owner of Tourist Home — Mary Cobb Milkman — Carl Palmer. THE LAWRENCI AN 39 — Photo by Vantvne Front roll .

Sportsmanship Brotherhood Jean Morrison — Joseph Miskell. Jr. T EN members of the Class of ’39 received the honor of being accepted into the Sportsmanship Brotherhood on June 10, 1 938. These members were: Joseph Miskell, Jr., President; Jean Morrison, Secretary; Phyllis Studley, Anne McKenzie, Eleanor Irish, Frances Cahoon, Ralph Long, Jr., Elwood Mills, Robert McDonald, and Bernard Issokson. President Donald Sample, ’38, initiated us at a school assembly. The following week we attended the annual banquet at the Cape Codder Hotel where we acquainted ourselves with graduate members of the Brotherhood. After an enjoyable ban- quet, we listened to a very interesting talk by Mr. Milford Lawrence. We came back to school in September as Seniors and active members of the Sportsman- ship Brotherhood. Immediately we started our chief source of income — the candy counter. At Christmas we distributed four Christmas bas- kets to needy families. Then too, we contri- buted a sum of money to the school band for uniforms. After the basketball season we pre- sented the lettermen of the squad with red jackets as a token of their fine playing and sportsmanship. Looking over the records of the Brotherhood, we found that it was organized in 1926 and it has 175 living members to date. Although no actual records of the Sportsmanship Broth- erhood’s work have been kept, members and graduates of Lawrence High School are con- scious of the organization ' s deeds. At an assembly on June 9, ten new Junior members — Betty Davis, Charlotte McKenzie, Constance DeMello, Rebecca Cahoon, Jean- nette Hurford, Milford Hatch, Richard Barry, Robert Simmons, George Kariotis, and James Wright — and four new Sophomore members — Virginia Rowe, Muriel Gediman, George Mixer, and Allen Peterson — were taken into the Brotherhood to carry on the work next year. 40 THE LAWRENCIAN — Photo by Vantine Front row: Albert Soderland, Anita Manley, Mildred Green, Kathleen Vallis, Annetta Hubbard, Louise Brown, Milford Hatch, Richard Barry, Paul Blanchard, Elwyn Turner.

Orchestra Annetta Hubbard A S a climax to its year’s activities, the High School Orchestra presented a Spring Concert in May. The appreciative audience, which filled the Hall School audi- torium, commented favorably and praised its very excellent performance. PROGRAM Voices of Spring Strauss Tales from the Vienna Woods Strauss Moonlight Sonata (Allegretto movement) Beethoven Ave Maria Schubert Invitation to the Waltz Weber Hungarian Dance No. 6 Brahms During the year the orchestra has played at the Parent-Teachers’ Association meetings, in assemblies, and for the Outlook Club. The orchestra was represented at the Music Festival in Boston by Kathleen Vallis and Paul Blanch- ard. Many of the members will be graduat- ing this June, among them being: Mary Cobb, marimba; Kathleen Vallis, first violin; Mildred Green, flute; Charlotte Hubbard, piano; and Annetta Hubbard, first violin. These members sincerely hope that the new-comers will keep up the work that has been done by the present members for the past few years. THE LAWRENCI AN 41 — Photo by Thomson.

S. golf team was scored in our match with Vocational, whom we beat eight to one (8 to 1 ). The team played fair golf and maintained a true spirit of sportsmanship throughout the season, even though it played excellent teams, such as Dartmouth and Brockton. Although our scores did not make the team outstanding, we did have the distinction of having the only girl golfer in the Intercollegiate Golf Associa- tion of Eastern Massachusetts. Anita LaBonte claimed this honor and earned her place on the team with good scores. Other members of the team were Ernest Upton, Francis Lewis, Robert McDonald, Elwood Mills, Harold Baker, Willard Denny, and Harry Richardson. We sincerely appreciate the efforts of our coach, Mr. Allen, and we hope that next year L. H. S. will have a larger and finer team. 42 THE LAWRENCIAN - — Photo by Thomson Left to right, first row, C.

Not only did the girls make a good record on paper, but the team exhibited good sportsmanship, coopera- tion and fine spirit. Coach Dorothea Buros deserves much credit for the exceptionally good showing of her girls.

Basket- ball team, though they dropped their first two games, ran up a victory-string of thirteen be- fore losing their final two tilts. Boasting four veterans, the team, although handicapped by the loss of Mills in their first eight games and Co-Captain Parker in the last nine, clearly es- tablished themselves as Cape Champions. They were well balanced, having Wright with 234 points, McDonald, 1 18, and Mills, 98 as scor- ing threats and Corey, Co-Captain Parker, Co- Captain Costa, and Miskell doing the guard- ing. Being outplayed only in the Rockland game, they overshadowed every other oppon- ent, losing their other three tilts in the last moments of play. With All-Brockton Tourna- ment Wright returning next year along with Soule, Baker, Hatch, and Breivogel, next year’s quintet should do fully as well.

S. basketeers were eliminated by powerful Rockland in the semi-finals and also were beaten by Plymouth in the consolation game of the Southeastern Massachusetts Basket- ball Tournament at Brockton. Because of an enrollment increase, the Lawrencians, de- fending titlists in Class B, were forced to com- pete against larger schools in Class A. After topping Mansfield 40-34 and Oliver Ames 28-19, the Crimson met powerful Rockland in the semi-finals. Against this team which boasted five scoring threats, the Crimson per- formed remarkably, leading Rockland for three periods, due mainly to the efforts of Jim Wright who dunked in 22 points. However, in the final period, Rockland pulled away an J won 54-40 against the tiring Crimson. Against Plymouth in the consolation game, the Crimson had a 4 point lead with 30 sec- onds to play, but the long-shot artists of the Blue dropped in two baskets to tie it up, anJ another in 30 seconds of the overtime to win. Jim Wright was chosen forward and Mil ' s, center, on the All -To lrnament Five. Track The L. H. S. Track Team, its first in many seasons, entered the Cape Cod Track Tourna- ment at Barnstable and emerged in a tie for third place with 8 points. Barnstable, being far superior to the other teams, easily won. The Crimson Comet, Ralph Long, scored sec- ond place in both the 100 and 220 yard dash- es. The other two Crimson points were col- lected by Clayton Collins, who placed fourth in the high jump and 100 yard dash. It is the hope of the students that this sport, brought about by the lack of a baseball diamond, will be continued in the future. Tennis The L. H. S. Tennis Team, boasting a tournament favorite in Bud Miskell, entered the Southeastern Massachusetts Tennis Tourna- ment at Brockton and gave a very creditable performance. Miskell reached the singles finals, but lost out to Kenneth Means of Hing- ham 6-2, 6-2. He combined with Tait in the doubles, but they were eliminated by the Hing- ham doubles team 6-1, 6-0. The trio who en- tered the tourney were Miskell, Tait, and Borden. Baseball CRIMSON WALLOPS SANDWICH 17-2 Unleasing a barrage of 20 base hits includ ing 10 extra base blows, the L. H. S. Baseball Team opened its baseball season by defeating Sandwich 17-2. Forced to play all its games away because of the lack of a field, the Crim- son rolled up a surprisingly high score. After being held to a 1-0 lead by veteran Kaipainen for five innings, the Crimson put over 16 tal- lies in the last four innings, including 8 in the eighth. Corey, besides fanning 14, led the at- tack with a triple, a brace of doubles, and two singles. Mills also hit for the circuit, a single, double, triple, and homer. The Crimson played errorless ball afield. • ♦ ♦ BARNSTABLE SWAMPS CRIMSON 19-6 After leading 6-3 for five innings, the L. H. S. nine fell apart and allowed Barnstable to score 16 runs in the last three innings, losing to their rivals 19-6. In this loosely-played contest, Corey started for Falmouth, but hav- ing the first off-day in two years, was relieved by Mills. Richardson led the L. H. S. eleven- hit attack with 3 bingles off Drew, Salo, and McEacheron, while Monteirio and Robello had 4 hits apiece for Barnstable. « — ♦ ♦ L. H. S. EDGES WAREHAM 8-6 Scoring in the opening inning, and never relinquishing their lead, the L. H. S. Baseball Team defeated Wareham 8-6. With Mills holding Wareham in check throughout and Wareham making 10 bobbles, the Crimson won easily despite the closeness of the score. Miskell and Corey with two hits apiece led the Crimson attack, while Smith gained two of Warehams four safeties. Mills fanned 10 in giving the Crimson their second victory. THE LA WRENCI AN 45 information, Please George Stevenson A S Alumni Editor, I staged what you might call an information booth. I asked ques- tions which are puzzling every student enter- ing high school. Some former Alumni, now students at college, who furnished the desired information are Eugene Lawrence, L. H. S. ’37, now a Sophomore at the Massachusetts Insti- tute of Technology (Dean’s List), Roger Savery, L. H. S. ’35, a senior at Brown Univer- sity (Manager of Brown Glee Club), James Cobb, L. H. S. ’35, a senior at Holy Cross (Associate Editor of Purple). 1 took the liber- ty of condensing their opinions because of limited space. In reply to our first question, What advice would you give to high school freshmen as to the most helpful courses?” Eugene says, I ad- vise a student to take typing by all means.” He also believes if you plan to take calculus in college, learn your trig’ formulas and learn to manipulate them.” Roger advocates learn- ing something of everything, in order to gain the greatest amount of broad and cultural knowledge possible.” Jim states just follow your inclination”. All three disagreed on the second question on the merits of their colleges, each claiming his to be the best. The third question, on especial benefits de- rived from their high school education, was a hard one. Roger believes that he profited most from the excellent foundation that L. H. S. gave him. Eugene says, Lawrence High enabled me to enter without taking exams. I couldn’t have entered, if I had had to take them.” Jim claims that the habits of study he learned here were most us eful. Question four. What courses would you like to repeat if given the opportunity?” Roger says he would like a more general smattering of everything; Eugene states, None,” and Jim says French, Latin, and English Literature. We asked for any other information for the fifth question. Roger says to read good books, listen to good music, go out for athletics, learn how to converse intelligently, and above all to keep up academically. Eugene states, While in high school learn to get your work in the least possible time.” Jim tells us not to worry about college, but not to think that you can work your way through. He says he feels it is physically impossible. The staff extends its thanks to all these stu- dents for their helpful advice.

The purpose of this program is to give the student a liberal and cultural education and a vocational competence which fits him to enter some specific type of useful employment. College of Business Administration Offers a college program with broad and thorough training in the prin- ciples of business with specialization in ACCOUNTING, BANKING AND FINANCE, or BUSINESS MANAGEMENT. Modern methods of instruc- tion, including lectures, solution of business problems, class discussions, professional talks by business executives, and motion pictures of manu- facturing processes, are used. College of Engineering Provides complete college programs in Engineering with professional courses in the fields of CIVIL, MECHANICAL (with DIESEL, AERONAU- TICAL, and AIR CONDITIONING options), ELECTRICAL, CHEMICAL, INDUSTRIAL ENGINEERING, and ENGINEERING ADMINISTRATION. General engineering courses are pursued during the freshman year; thus the student need not make a final decision as to the branch of engineer- ing in which he wishes to specialize until the beginning of the sophomore year. Co-operative Plan The Co-operative Plan, which is available to upperclassmen in all courses, provides for a combination of practical industrial experience with class- room instruction. Under this plan the student is able to earn a portion of his school expenses as well as to make business contacts which prove valuable in later years.
