Our ARROYV has been designed to serve many purposes, and We shall consider our efforts Well repaid if it is treasured in the years to come for any one of these reasons. We care not Whether you value it most highly for its catches of humor, its records, its literary attempts, its autographs, its pictures, or its sketches of the seniors: but We hope that all these Will be as arrows Which find their mark by striking responsive chords in you, the readers. And lest We forget, I say to you, may each and every page in this ARROW become a leaf in your book of memories! CHARLOTTE COVELL, Editor-in-chief, THE ARROW, 1939 Q Prineipafs Message to the Seniors' There was a Roman God named Janus who was endowed with two heads in order that he might be able to look in two direc- tions at the same time. As I consider what I may say to you whom I have known as students for six years, I have no illusions of deity, but I do seem to be outdoing the Roman god as I look backward at the past, forward at the future, and half-way between at the present. In September, 1933, your class entered this school with an enrollment of one hun- dred and eighteen. Now it numbers forty- three. You forty-three survivors are the only ones of that one hundred and eighteen who have had the ability, the determina- tion, and the persistence to successfully complete the six years of secondary educa- tion you began as seventh graders in this school. This fact proves that you have not only the factual education but also the per- sonal qualities to become the reliable and worthwhile citizens of your town, your state, and your country. As I look back on those six years, what do I see? I see boys and girls who have at- tended school faithfully every day-except for an occasional holiday when they per- suaded themselves, if not their teachers, that they had a good excuse for absence. I see these young people, who, with a fair degree of conscientious effort, have ob- tained what they could in the way of academic learning from courses of study offered by the school. I hope they have not been too disappointed in what we have had to offer. It is true that I have been intensely interested in this intellectual growth of yours, but-call it heresy if you will-that has not been my most serious concern. I believe it gives the greatest satisfaction to any principal-and I am no exception-to watch the growth and development of the personality and character of each of the pupils in his school, not that I am fully satished with the personality and char- acter of any one of you, and I sincerely hope that you are not fully satished with yourselves. I hope you never will reach a complete satisfaction, because then growth and improvement will stop. But when I remember numerous incidents of your earlier days in this school and then see you as you are today, I am encouraged to be- lieve that your school life here, your asso- ciations with one another and with your teachers, your activities outside your regular classes, have resulted in real personality growth that is not expressed in your class- room marks. You who are graduating this year have not only been witnesses but active par- ticipants in a period of evolution, growth, and development in your school. It is not my intention to enumerate your individual and collective contributions to this period of school development, but I must express my appreciation for what you have done for your school in music, in athletics, in the Student Council, and in other school activities. Since this is to be printed in your year-book, it is especially fitting that I give you deserved credit for improving upon the worthy examples of your recent predecessors and successfully publishing the most elaborate and most finished year-book the school has yet produced. So far we have talked of the past and the present. Mfhat of the future? Unless all present signs fail, the future offers no easy path, no escalator to success. No longer will you be helped whenever you face a difficulty. From now on it will be up to you whether you sink or swim, drift or drive on. The thought comes to me and worries me not a little, f'Have we been too careful of you? Have we placed enough responsi- bility on you? You will answer those questions. In closing, let me say that if in the past I have seemed to you to be severe, unreason- able, perhaps cruel, in something I may have said or done, it was said or done because I sincerely believed it was for your good and might help you face this path into the future where there is no escalator to success. Also, believe me when I say that I shall always be interested in you, shall be happy when you succeed, and shall feel that I have somehow failed if I ever hear that you have failed. Such failure will never be yours if you are true to the best that is in youg you will be a credit to yourselves and to your school. , .I ,ty Q .tj I ,,. ,Ji .

In these fourteen students the organization has apparently achieved its purpose of encouraging the development of high scholarship, for they have satisfied the qualincations of maintain- ing, up to the beginning of the second half of their senior year, an average rank of eighty-Hve per cent or over in their school work. For their efforts they are repaid with a blue and gold pin of appropriate design, not unlike a fraternity pin, and a certifi- cate of award, but the greatest reward of all should be the knowledge of a work well done. 23 Name Judy Aultman Susy Barrett Winnie Baxter Eggie Beaver Duke Berardi Elinor Berk john Cicerchia Betty Collamore Dunc Colley Doris Cooper Charlotte Covell Donald Cramer Charlie Dunbar Shirley Edmunds Ray Farnum Dot Ford Lena Giardini Johnnie Hiller Dick Holden Millie Jones Art Kingsford Addie Lamson Myron Leach Art Les Carbeau Donald MacDougall Baby Mancino Mary McLaughlin Ray McNally Kenny Munroe Ethel Oliva jay Pattee Marion Perry john Raponi Vic Raponi Ruth Remington Barbara Sammis Fred Sampson 'Marken Scholes Ada Sciotti Betty Taylor Hopie Viall Harriette Wilkins Barbara Vvindle Amilio Zompa Senior Singularities .-ii.

Each dog-eared page will recall tenfold its own little history. But now many of us, no doubt, are anx- ious to leave behind us what we try to persuade ourselves are twelve years of un- reasonable restraint and boring routine. How often have we been heard to exclaim disgustedly, VVhat good will this old stuff ever do us! How we looked forward to each holiday and vacation! Even each as- sembly, no matter how trivial or short, was to us a welcome respite from our dull round of studies. How often again have we been heard to term our school a jail, but soon we shall discover what sort of jail it was. The world, without a doubt, will be a far harder warden than our faculty has been. Our school life has been a small world in itself, and we shall probably discover that its cares and troubles have been in proportion as well. It is only natural that we are all eager to try our luck in the world and to assert our new independence. Our horoscope re- veals us scattered far and wide in the years to come, meeting the inevitable problems of the world and attaining various degrees of success. Some day in the not-too-distant future, though, each and every one of us will fervently wish to be back in school, where, in truth, we have been so compara- tively carefree, but not until then shall we be able to appreciate in full all that these twelve long years have meant to us. Thanks for the memories, Peck High! CHARLOTTE Covert., '39 We, the Pupils l Have you a pet peeve, a constructive idea, or merely a sore thumb?

Perhaps at some later date we may even End that our corridors are no longer battlehelds where the tough- est man wins, and perhaps the girls' locker room will cease to be raided every time it is used by the visiting basketball team. In the meantime the Student Council toils on to establish and maintain a government of the pupils, by the nuoils, and for the pupils -and with our highest approval. CONNIE COVELL, '40 The Rain Descended, and the Floods Came, and the Winds Blew... The 2:45 bell rang as usual on that Mfed- nesday afternoon, dismissing us students to wend our respective ways homeward after what had been just another routine day in our school life. But there the similarity stopped, for be- fore that day was to end, its events were to establish themselves so firmly in our minds that September 2l, 1938, will be forever an unforgettable day in our memories. The high wind which buffetted us about, much to our glee at that time, soon developed into a gale, and thence into a tropical hur- ricane and tidal wave, the like of which we had never seen nor wish ever to experience again. We needed no meteorologistls in- struments to tell us of the storm's force, for there is not one of us but has a tale of hor- ror to relate about that day. Statistics and records alone cannot tell the story of the cyclonic madness and roaring death that was the wind, it had to be learned from the lips of the countless victims who lost possessions, property, homes, loved ones, and all that life had previously meant. Throughout it all, more than one of us had the weird sensation that it was a mad dream, a nightmare from which we should soon awaken. But it was the days which followed which seemed to be even more unnaturally dream- like, for the tragedy and horror of the af- termath of the hurricane is almost inde- scribable. The devastation, the crazy con- fusion, and the fantastic stories of death, or miraculous escapes, absorbed all our at- tention and interest. Our own town of Barrington was practically unrecognizable, with four bridges swept away, large boats atop the Barrington River Bridge, houses broken to' matchwood, and huge trees felled to the ground or uprooted. All this was done in the course of a few hours by the hurricane and tidal wave as if it were child's play, whereas it would have taken centuries of normal erosion and man's labor to have achieved the same results and effects. VVhen at last we returned to school on Monday, September 26, it was not to our normal routine. M7e do not realize how important are the man-developed services which surround even our every-day school life until we are deprived of them for a while. VVe were summoned to classes by a rusty old dinner-gong, and excused from all homework until electricity was restored. Our cafeteria took on somewhat the appear- ance of a tavern, as the chlorinated water was stored in what looked suspiciously like a beer keg! Wfe returned, too, to find that the crisis had brought forth such acts of heroism on the part of many of our own schoolmates that at any other time they would have been awarded medals for their bravery, but now they went acknowledged only by the people whose hearts alone could express their gratitude. ln the physical sense, the scars of this storm will be 'borne for years to come, but mentally we shall carry them forever! CHARLOTTE COVELL, '39 Barrington Public Library Much noise and confusion on the school playground, followed by much noise and confusion in the classes! The northern rooms of Leander R. Peck are in an up- roar. An outsider or visitor might think a short recess had been declared, but we Barringtonites know better-the P. NV. A. workmen have just created a diversion in the school life by some exciting action out on the Town Hall addition, which will eventually be our new library. Students toss aside their books for a moment, and, leaning elbows on the win- dow sills for hot radiators by mistakej, gaze raptly out at the construction work. The steam shovel is about to demolish a hurricane-battered tree which has been hindering progress, the shovel is gobbling up mouthfuls of dirt, and we watch with an unspoken hope of seeing it grab a worker by mistake, the first steel girder is being hoisted up. All these activities add spice to the regular school day routine. The same shovel is stuck, and is going through odd motions trying to get out of the deep hollow of soft dirt. Mfe watch hopefully. Nothing happens. Mr. Lester, an ever- obliging soul, appoints Beaver to keep an eye on the activities, to inform us when success seems near. The history class set- tles back to work. But perhaps our readers would like to learn more about this library- to-be, and that's what I'm here for. As you've probably noticed, the addition is on the southeastern side of the Town Hall, a fact which insures a pleasant, sunny exposure. It is conveniently located, being almost exactly in the geographical center of the town, with nearby bus transporta- tion, and plenty of parking space. As the plans are now, the ninety by sixty foot building will be of the same style of English architecture as that of the Town Hall. Facing the entrance will be the libra- rian's desk, with the staff's office behind it. The present Town Council room will be the children's room, and corresponding to this on the right of the entrance will be the reference and reading room, well-furnished with chairs, tables, modern lighting, and fire-place. Beyond this is the periodical room. Coming back from our inspection tour, we discover two tiers of stacks open to the public. Downstairs will be the workroom, the vault, a small kitchen with equipment for the librarians, and more stack space cor- responding to that upstairs' over the en- trance. The library will be able to hold 50,000 books, which is a considerable in- crease over the present 19,000 As now planned, the addition will be completed and ready for use at the end of the sum- mer. J. AULTMAN, '39 Qld Faithful If you should ask him what is in his cra- nium, he would probably turn a frigid scapula on you, or perhaps he would even venture to point a mouldy phalange at your cringing person in mute disapproval. He? -Why, Pete, that desiccated darling of hic jacet, more prosaically referred to as the skeleton. ' But Pete has not always been just bones. Behind that mocking stare is no ordinary history, because, you see, skeletons don't very often show any interest in higher education. We know he was originally a young man, although our knowledge of his character begins and ends with one deed, a chicken theft. Fate decreed that his life should terminate one dark night when he was rather ill-advisedly making away with another fellowls Sunday dinner. It is best that we do not judge Pete too harshly, because, after all, how can we be certain that the fowl-excuse me, the foul deed did not originate from a mere weakness for fried chicken, or perhaps from a pecu- liar fondness for hen society in general. The fact remains, however, that Pete,' had neither kith nor kin, so he was consigned to the noble cause of education. Since that unrelenting sentence was passed, Pete,' has been a silent, unassum- ing member of our student body and an undemanding member of our faculty. Un- complainingly, he has been examined by hygiene classes for many and endless years, and he has very sweetly ignored the nu- merous pokes received in the ribs, and the jabs aimed at his delicate vertebrae. These were not his only troubles, either, for a few years ago another skeleton was disentombed during an excavation, and as Pete had lost a number of essential elements, and since his skull had begun to succumb to the ravages of schooling, he was dismem- bered, reassembled and rewired. Alas! what eternal disgrace to be part of yourself and part of someone else, especially since no one knows who the someone else was! Wfhen we are granted our first glimpse of Pete, we gape curiously, but soon we affect an attitude of sophistication and even amused scorn. Finally, as we leave hygiene for other more complicated subjects, we forget him entirely. And so it continues, classes come and classes go, but Pete re- mains in his private apartment in the lab,' with his discarded, toothless old head grin- ning foolishly at his bony feet. It takes a great deal of fortitude to keep a lonely vigil with one's derisive remains, so here's to Pete, a capital fellow, and a veritable Job. Long may he rattle a bony leg!! C. C., '40 Recipes for Writing From the 1939 Edition of Covie's Cook Book Nora: These are not kitchen-tested recipes! An editorial is one of the best appetizers known, besides offering an opportunity for personal expression on the part of the cook. Either a radical idea or a current topic of discussion is a tasty base. To this base, add a dash of humor and a pinch of pathos. A generous sprinkling of finely powdered sar- casm is the real secret, however, for putting spice into an editorial. lt does a great deal towards whetting the reader's appetite, and invariably he will return for more. For the main course, an original story is filling and tempting. Take one good idea and before using, ripen well by a few nights of sound sleep. Cook over the fires of your imagination until done to a turn. Season with the spice of a few well-chosen words and sprinkle according to taste with com- mas, periods, and exclamation marks. Gar- nish with a fancy title and some appropri- ate, eye-diverting illustrations. Let cool under the cold criticism of the teacher's eye, and then serve. And to top off this meal, why not serve for dessert a tempting morsel of poetry? Take any ordinary subject fthe idea need not be novel, but only the sauce which covers it.j Next, hunt up XVebster's Fifth Edition Collegiate Dictionary and turn to the rhyming section in the appendix. Mfith this guide propped on the stove before you, fif poetic ability is not your fortej , proceed to enlarge upon your idea. If a word doesn't rhyme, force it to by boiling harder, or substitute a word of a better brand. Chant over each completed line until those around think you are a candidate for the home for the feeble-minded. Tap pencil-your cook- ing spoon-in time to the chosen meter until a request for quiet is made. If neither rhyme nor meter seems to mix well, dump into the concoction all your odds and ends of ideas and lines. Cover with a meringue of high-sounding words, always keeping in mind that the way to a reader's heart is through his ears. The resulting dish is known as free verse -a good excuse for a poor attempt!

Either the grass needed cut- ting, or there was a special letter that simply had to get in the next mail. They were al- ways interrupting his pleasant thoughts of a swim or tennis with the boys fand Jeanne and Ellen and possibly Tonij. Ignoring Alice's imploring voice, Johnny sank back into the deck chair and happily surveyed the garden through half-closed eyes. Suddenly he sat up, banging his head smartly on the back of the chair. A look of horror over- spread his face. Today was the day! Wfhy, oh why, couldn't it rain? The one day of the summer when he'd be only too pleased to have it rain, and there wasn't a cloud in the Sky. john! That was his mother. He'd have to go now. XfVhen she spoke in that tone of voice she meant business. Coming, he muttered, ambling dejectedly towards the house. John, you know how busy we're going to be this morning, and you could be a great help if you wanted to. If he wanted to, that meant he would, or else-. Sure, Mom, he grinned weakly. What do you want me to do? f'W'ell, first I'd like these things, indi- cating a few dozen pots of tulips, three garden benches, a bird bath, and eleven flats of close-cropped grass, 'Ato be taken down to the club. just ask for Mrs. Adams, and she'll tell you where to put themf' 'iCan Bud come with me? plaintively. HI don't want to go in there with all those ferocious females all alone! Certainly not, his mother snapped. I won't have you two going in there looking like a couple of tramps.

And, Johnny, leave that awful hat at home. Filthy dungarees! Johnny stamped up the stairs. Awful hat! Better looking than any Alice ever wore! 38 Fifteen minutes later Johnny had the beach wagon loaded and started off in the direction of the club. She said he couldn't take Bud, but she didn't say anything about Toni. Anyway, Toni's house was on the way to the club. Maybe she could think of a way by which he would be able to escape the terrible fate of being an usher at the an- nual Flower Show. If he could only break an arm or even get the mumps! But, no, he had never felt healthier in his life. just to make matters worse, Toni had gone swimming with Ted, or so Toni's little brother told him. He drove up to the Club and unloaded the materials for a Gay Spring Garden under the watchful eye of Mrs. Adams. The ride home never seemed so short. Every second brought him nearer home, and he hadn't thought of a good excuse why he should not usher at the show in the after- noon. He slid out of the car and crunched across the gravel driveway and into the house. He coldly surveyed a can of soup, evidently meant for his lunch. A note be- side the offensive soup can caught his eye. Toni called. She wants you to meet her at two-thirty this afternoon and drive into town to take Puck to the veterinarian to be clipped for the dog show. Johnnyis heart sank. The flower show started at two. He crumpled the note in his hand and dropped into a chair. He was the most mistreated boy in the world. He unfolded the note and glanced at the other side. 'Tve called Ted's mother and asked her if Ted would take your place ushering this afternoon. She said he'd be delighted. Have a good time and don't drive too fast. Mother. Gleefully Johnny dialed Toni's number. Hello, Fluff! I'm kinda busy this after- noon, but I'll try to get over at two. Toni's Thanks, Johnny, you're a lamb, was payment enough for all the suffering he had had in the morning. Mfhistling merrily he clambered into the beach wagon and headed toward Toni's. It was only eleven o'clock, but what of it? He couldn't wait till two.

C., '40 First Choice W . 1 ,, ....... - It was difficult to sit up in bed so early in the morning, reflected Michael. It was more difficult than usual because it was earlier than usual, even if the yellow light sprawled over the Hne silk quilts of the dark mahogany bed. They draped them- selves over the window seat, and slid to the carpet covering the cold stone floor. There were splotches of sunlight on the cold hearth, and on his tutorfs manuscripts lying on the mantelpiece. It was spring, and to be more definite, the exact date was a day in May sometime in the l7th century. Michael, officially known as Prince Richard Michael Loftny, of Zenda, rubbed his eyes and swung long legs to the floor from under the warm covers. He must get up, call the chamberlain, dress, eat, and prepare him- self for an official visit from the Prime Minister, his uncle. He regarded the com- ing visit dubiously, but hopefully. Yesterday his older brother, the Crown Prince, had pompously informed him, You are to inspect, on the morrow, a group of portraits.- They are the pictures of all the women eligible to become your wife. Pather and I know that you are only eighteen, but we feel it is time you made your choice, because in the near future you will have to marry-for-er-reasons of state. Michael remembered his stiff, formal reply. It had well concealed all his youth- ful optimism and anxiety. Finally, The Prime Ministerll' an- nounced his chamberlain. Michael uncurled himself from the sunny window seat, and bowed low to his uncle, who strode in, followed by a retinue of servants who set up seven different veiled portraits and vanished. There was a heavy silence as uncle and prince stood before the row of canvasses. f'XNell, rumbled his uncle, why don't you begin? Yes, Sire. I will answer any questions about any of them, that is, within my knowledge! The young prince swiftly stepped up' to the formidable row, and swept one after the other free of its covering. XfVith a quick glance, he noted that only three of these were within consideration. The other four were not young enough, or pretty enough, or lively enough. VVhat's that one's name? he queried, pointing to a picture of a slight blond girl with dark brown eyes. She was dressed for hunting with a fine hooded falcon on her wrist. Her golden hair was drawn up in a snood under a green plumed hat, and her slim figure was incased in a riding habit of the same color. Of course, her features were not particularly outstanding, but her mouth was wide and looked as if it was used to laughter. That is Helen, the daughter of the wid- owed Duchess of Knox. She is heir to a small estate, and a noble name. Oh! was all Michael said. He next turned to another portrait, painted in a very different style, which clearly announced it as foreign. The woman was not so young as the other, but she couldn't be much more than twenty. She was dark and small. I-Ier hair was long and black, and rippled in long waves down her back. She was dressed in a dark red dress from whose low-cut bodice her shoulders rose snowy-white, and beautifully moulded. Her features were Latin in cast, but more perfect than those of her blond rival. I-Ier eyes were not sparkling, but' veiled and smouldering. Young Michael's pulse pounded in his ears, but he shrank from her lusterless, dull-witted eyes. He asked her name. That is Katherine Cardova, sister to the King of Spain, and heir to a crown and a vast fortune. Does she hunt as the first one must? No, but she is beautiful and heir to powerf! Mm-m-mf' commented the prince. He still shrank from her Mona Lisa expres- sion. YVho is this? He had turned to the last of the three choices. This was also a portrait of a dark lady. But a different kind of beauty shone from her short- cropped, curly hair, her round, rosy, puck- ish face, and her laughing blue eyes. She was dressed simply in dusky blue skirts, and black low-cut bodice. In her lap rested her pudgy, but capable hands, that held embroidery. She, too, was beautiful in Hg- ure, though plumpest of the three. That, stated the Prime Minister, is your second cousin of Orange. I think her first name is Elizabeth. She is famed for her skill in the Hner domestic crafts. I was afraid she was like that, said the prince, but she looked so nice. He turned away from the pictures and addressed his uncle, How long do I have to choose? 'Tm afraid, puffed his uncle, that you will have to decide now. Came a long silence, then the Prince of Zenda took a long breath and spoke. I'll have the blond one because her eyes are nice, and she is slim and blond, and be- cause she can hunt. This was followed by a silence which suddenly became thick with foreboding of evil. Then the Prime Minis- ter chirped in a wheedling voice, Don't you think Princess Katherine is much more beautiful? I think you would like her much better, and she has such a future in Spain. No, said the Prince, uneasily. INell, drawled the uncle, 'Tm afraid you will have to take her, because the mar- riage contract has already been drawn up, and signed. After all, your father, the King, knows best, although we were hoping you would select her of your own accord. The Prince said nothing more except to dismiss his uncle in his stiffest, briefest manner. When the Prime Minister had gone, he turned again to the portraits. One was his first choice, another his second choice, and yet another the choice of the state. That slim blond girl would have been such a wonderful companion, but he was a prince, and a prince must have power. Michael, for the first time, fully realized the fact that his life was the state's, not his own. Wfith bitter resignation he turned and coldly stared at the portrait of Katherine, his wife-to-be. Well, if he were to be king, it wouldn't be in his own country, because his brother was heir to the throne, so it might as well be Spain. As a type, Katherine was the paral- lel of many of the women of his father's court. It would not be hard to marry her, and when she was queen he would share her power. His thoughts, however, again strayed wistfully to his first choice. MARKEN SCHOLES, '39 Prof.- All right, class, those who canit stay with us, I'm going to send out!

E Iu.suun.s Mutiny in Music The members of the band settled wearily into their seats for another of what seemed to be endless rehearsals under the direction of their new leader, Pete Henderson. To a man, each realized that before the session was over, the Hre of hate that had been smoldering would be fanned to a new all- time high, for they could all understand that certain look in Pete's eyes and that familiar downward twitch of the corner of his surly mouth. Conditions had been like this for a month now, reflected joe, the drummer. Ever since Pete had been put under con- tract to fill the place of jim, their former leader, who had been fatally injured in an accident, there had been a serious under- current of rebellion in the band against the tactics of the new leader. He had forced them to appear at needless rehearsals and had kept them long hours overtime, so that many of the men had often been unable to keep appointments. Pete seemed to maliciously delight in taking advantage of an unfortunate clause in his contract, which gave him the right to dock money from their pay envelopes for alleged mis- takes, which were entirely products of his imagination. Things just canlt go on like this forever, protested joe to himself, as he felt the sneer- ing eyes of Pete turned full upon him. joe in no way merited this disgust and con- tempt, for he was one of the best drummers in New York, but he, as well as the other members of the band, was forced by the terms of the contract to bear the insolence of their leader in silence, and he did it gra- ciously, never betraying by word or look the unspeakable hatred that he, like the rest, felt toward Pete. After rehearsals, however, they had talked long and earnestly about what was to be done, but never had they been able to reach any definite decision. They had even gone to the manager of the hotel where the band played nightly, but to no avail, as the con- tract left no loopholes for them to escape the seven months which remained before the expiration date. As Joe sat there, patiently and mechani- cally repeating the passage which he al- ready played perfectly, the inklings of what seemed to be their first really practical plan of action began to creep into his troubled brain. As he took his coat and hat from the hook, preparatory to leaving the hotel, he whispered to the player next to him, Pass the word along to meet me at the corner drugstore right away. I've got an idea! joe was hardly seated five minutes later before he broke out almost hysterically with, Listen, fellas, we've stood Henderson just about as long as we can, and we all know it. We've gone over every way of honorably breaking that contract, but it just isn't possible without causing ourselves more trouble and embarrassment. Our chances of finding another job, although we're all good musicians, would be practi- cally nil, nor would we be any better oif if Pete fired one or two of us as he's aching to do. Here's my plan, and I admit it isn't ex- actly honorable, but I talked to the manager about it, and believe me, fellas, he's O. K., ,cuz what I've planned is sort of a dirty trick to play on anybody, but he sees our side and wants to help us. Well, you all remem- ber that Jim had a brother who was a good leader, but he hasn't got a band together yet. Last night he phoned me and wanted to know how long we were signed up for. He said he'd take us up as soon as we were free and that he had a hotel job waiting for us. My plan is for us all to forget tonight that we're musicians. The manager agrees that he has no choice but to fire us, one and all, if we are too unsatisfactory. It's a crisis, and we've got to meet it or put up with Henderson for seven months, and then there probably won't be enough left of us to fill that new job. VVith this parting shot Joe strode from the drugstore, leaving behind him a gasping but determined group. That night they took their places as usual, giving Henderson no inkling of what a queer rebellion was to take place before the evening was very old. They played the Hrst piece in their usual matchless style to an au- dience of only half a dozen people. At a sly sign from joe, however, as they began second selection, all Hades broke their loose with a barrage of squeaks and catcalls the clarinet, a long, mournful wail from from. the saxophone, a blare of fanfares the trumpet, a deafening roar of from cymbals, bells, and drums, and a series of blood-curdling hoots and howls from the trombone. Evidently the guests were employees of the hotel, planted there for the occasion and tipped off by the understanding and co-operative manager as to what they might expect, for strangely none of them seemed surprised at such an unusual outburst, but only smiled knowingly, and then arose and left the room. It was a very different reac- tion which appeared on Pete Henderson's face, however. He paled and then a dull purple suffused his skin, his eyes narrowed and his cruel mouth drew down in a wicked leer. As the only result of his wild gesticu- lations was a more deafening din of dis- cords, he suddenly seemed to lose all con- trol of himself, and let his baton and score Hy at the nearest player. At this point, the manager intervened and ordered them all into the adjoining office. INell, Henderson, he exclaimed with a wink at Joe, what's the meaning of all this? I suppose you realize that this little exhibition will cost you all your jobs. Lack of co-operation in a band and lack of self- control in a leader are entirely inexcus- ablef' Then with another sly wink at Joe, You ought to feel lucky I don't drag you all into court for this. You've probably lost me six of my guests! Now get out, all of you! Turning, he left the room, soon followed by a speechless Henderson, who could only look his intense hatred. XfVell, boys, that's that, sighed Joe. 'Tm sorry we were forced to do it, but we're off to a more congenial job now, thanks to our little mutiny in music!

In winter or summer, rain or shine, In an empty house, or a standing line, They wait in breathless, awed suspense To see queens die and rivals fence. They thrill at every smile and tear, Or swoon with fear at a Rathbone sneer. So dim and vast, so prehistoric, Yet vaguely prim, and philharmonic, A place where millions love to go And sit in the darkness row on row. In these brief hours they live their dreams Through products of producers' schemes. MARKEN SCHOLES, '39 ON PARTING There is a poignant pain to partingg The past and all its ecstasies are gone. It leaves an aching void behind it With only memories at evensong. One misses a familiar gesture, The chance remark, a certain walk, A word said low in accents strange, The very closeness of a casual talk. It's best to turn quickly, walking Fast away from memories and tears. Thus bitterness is tempered, sorrow Softened for wearily passing years. P. C., '40 And This ls My Story FRIDAY, APRIL l. Today is the day! Wlho knows? It may prove to be the turning point in my life, because Beatrice and I are going to Europe. And not to the wars! The idea was partly mine, but we read an excruciatingly thrill- ing escapade of a man who, too, went to Europe, but was imprisoned in nearly every country, because he insisted upon wearing a singular garb. If I remember correctly, which, by the way, is one thing I rarely ever do, he would not part with his rubber boots and a torn straw hat. VVhen he returned home he was given a royal wel- come. Cjust look what we have in store for uslj The exciting part of our trip is the way we are travelling. Sh-h, this is strictly on the T. but we are stowing away on a boat. Beatrice wants to go on the Queen Mary but I want to take the Normandie be- cause I think France would be a much bet- ter place to start one's travels. There is also a practical side to our storyg we have little or none of that filthy lucre, and if we waited until we had enough money to go first class, our destination most likely would not be Europe. Several minutes before sailing time we are going aboard as though we were seeing some friends offg then quite by chance we shall fail to hear the warning whistles. I imagine we shall have to play deaf to get away with that, though. SUNDAY APRIL 3.

Hair-raising and side-splitting would be a more accurate definition. We are now two weak, very penitent, eager-to-mend-our- ways, little, disillusioned adventuresses.

NVe scurried around in the bitter cold, Until our turn came near, For we were nervous and tried to think That we had nothing to fear. The photographer tried to make us laugh. He thought he was an ace, But the thing that made us laugh the most, Was his funny bewhiskered face. We posed like this, we posed like that- All this at his request. Y'Vhen out he popped and showed his face, How could we look our best? We received our proofs in a little while, But were heartily sorry we had, 4For when we looked at those frightful proofs, Y'Ve said, Could we look that bad? We selected the best, which was none too good. A couple of dozen were bought. One print was obtained for the ARROW' cut. just look what the camera caught! Of two dozen pictures 110t many are left, They went to relations and friends, But when our pictures are taken again, We promise to make amends. CLOUDS The clouds were slowly drifting- Drifting through the sky, When yet my thoughts were lifting- Lifting 'way up high. And when my gaze alighted- Alighted on the lake, My dreams were slowly shifted- Shifted but not opaque. My 'eyes dwelt on refiections- Refiections of the clouds, Through which were intercepting- Intercepting boughs. The clouds resembled snow piles- Snow piles clean and white. They looked so still and peaceful- Peaceful as the night. And yet the clouds were drifting- Drifting through the sky, And yet my thoughts were lifting- Lifting 'way up high. R.

It keeps a maiden's secrets, The sweet and lovely secrets, The still unuttered secrets Of innocence and youth.

QOf course Sophie knew it wouldn't be the real Mr. Power, but she liked to think of him as a man of Mr. Powerls attraction, and Power was just as respectable a name as any other.j How beautifully you look tonight, Miss -, faltered an imaginary voice. Just call me Sophie, Mr. Power, she rehearsed, sidling up to the mirror. Sophie, repeated the voice from the depths of nowhere. I like that-I was afraid it would be Barbara or Louise or some other silly name. I -U Here the voice fand Sophiej was rudely interrupted by the odor of burning food, and Sophie fled to the kitchen under the influence of words one does not hear when the preacher is being entertained in the parlor. For the present, at least, Sophie inhabited a world of harsh reality. Later that night, when she had completed the lengthy process of getting ready, Sophie surveyed with satisfaction her long red claws, and held them up against her cheek to see how perfectly they matched her flam- ing lips. She smiled at her reflection and tried to assure herself that he would like blondes. She sniffed in appreciation of the exotic perfume that a salesgirl had prom- ised would incite romance in the heart of lllusion the most hard-to-please male. The scent was lilac, although Sophie didn't think it really smelled like lilacs, however, she rea- soned that Mr. Power wouldn't know it didn't smell according to the labeln, any- way. With the help of a number of mys- terious-looking jars and bottles and such- like, she had transformed herself from So- phie, the insignificant, into Miss Sophie, woman of infinite glamour and lady of boundless charm. Now she was ready for HIM. She hoped he would tell her he loved her, and hold her very tight as the hero always does in pictures. She thought it would be best not to be too hasty in telling him that she loved him also-the heroine used those tactics in the last movie Sophie had seen. She would tell him that she was a maid and that she had never graduated from high school, and he would tell her it didn't mat- ter. He would probably confess that there were other women he had made love to, but she would forgive him when he told her he had never really loved them-maga- zine-story heroines always forgave their Sweethearts. She was rather sorry that she had no parents to give her a pretty wedding and to bless her, but perhaps he would be glad that she was an orphan, although she herself had often longed for 'someone who would scold her and love her and worry over her. She would have a beautiful home fSophie had always wanted a home more than anything else in the world.j They would be very happy and-suddenly he was there. She gasped-gulped-and nearly swooned. Blindly she groped for support, physical and mental, but Sophie, lady of inveterate resource, soon rose to meet the situation. Hello, there! Ain't you the boy as col- lects garbage here twice a week? she ven- tured to the red-faced, pimply youth, who, confronted as he was by femininity, was nervously biting his fingernails, and wholly at a loss for words.

BREAKS PROVE VITAL FACTOR BARRINGTON O Barrington launchedits 1938 gridiron season on September 24, 1939, when it played a heavily favored Fairhaven team. Barrington was a stubborn, hard-fighting outfit, and more than held its own until late in the second period. VVith three minutes to go, Fairhaven, after being held on the three-yard line for three downs, BARRINGTON TRIUMPHS IN BARRINGTON 7 Barrington opened its Class C schedule by defeating De La Salle in a hard fought game at Newport. In the second period, a Pattee-to-Gizzarelli aerial 'netted thirty- five yards. On the third down, Pattee plunged over from the two-yard line for the game's only score. The Newporters 54 TOIVARD FAIRHAVEN VICTORY FAIRHAVEN I9 entered touchdown territory by a pass. In the second half, the homesters scored on a Statue of Liberty play and an inter- cepted pass which set up the final touch- down. UVic Raponi, Cicerchia, and Broom- head were outstanding for the losers, while Cummings, Fortin, and Archambault ex- celled for the winners. FIRST L EAGUE ENCOUNTER A DE LA SALLE 0 received a break late in the third period, when Pattee fumbled at mid-field, but the strong Barrington line held for downs. Beaver, Anthony, and Berardi were the mainstays of the Barrington attack, while Gould and Corey played well for De La Salle. BARRINGTON. HIGH ROMPS THROUGH EAST GREENVVICH BARRINGTON 31 Barrington presented a smooth running attack, accurately executed aerials, and a strong defense, to register their i third straight league victory. Gizzarelli scored first, when he reeled off five yards into the pay-off dirt. Pattee and Berardi both scored EAST GREENWICH 0 on passes before the half ended. With the aid of the line, Pattee scored the last two touchdowns on line bucks. Every mem- ber on the Barrington team was in top form. Henry and Casavant stood out for the losers. PATTEE TO BERARDI AERIAL XVINS CLOSE BATTLE BARRINGTON 7 Barrington kept its Class C slate clean by defeating South Kingstown in their first league encounter of the season. Through- out the game, Barrington's forward wall played very well, but its offense could not get started. In the fourth period, Beaver returned a partially-blocked kick to South's thirty-three-yard line. On the third SOUTH K1NcsTowN 0 down, Pattee faded back and heaved a pass to Berardi, who made a spectacular catch in the end zone. A blocked kick again proved a vital factor in the outcome. Broomhead, V. Raponi, and Berardi were Barrington's big guns, whereas Belknap and Davis stood out for South. BARRINGTON SHADES BRISTOL COUNTY RIVAL 13-6 BARRINGTON 13 Alert jay Pattee again was the chief factor in Barrington's victory over Colt, and Bar- rington remained unbeaten in league com- petition. The winners tallied in the first and third periods, and played strong de- fensive football throughout the fray. In producing their Hrst score, Barrington drove 65 yards, Beaver picking up 35 of this yardage in one jaunt. By steady, short gains through the line, the ball was pushed to the 5-yard marker. Beaver smashed over, but Pattee's placement was wide. Pattee PATTEE'S AERIALS BARRINGTON 20 Barrington defeated a highly favored Dartmouth team 20-0 in a non-league game played at Haines Park. Mfith the ball deep down in Barrington territory, Pattee speared an enemy aerial. on his own 30 and ran to the Dartmouth 12. On the third down Shepperton scored with a pass from Pattee. Early in the third period 55 I COLT 6 displayed a fine piece of running when he traveled 81 yards across Colt's goal, but was called back for stepping out of bounds near his own 40. In the second half, Vargas' kick was blocked, and Pattee raced the remaining 13 yards to the pay-off dirt. He added the point on a placement. The Bristol athletes had the Barrington gladia- tors worried in the last period when their first score was made, but the visitors man- aged to protect their lead. BEAT DARTMOUTH DARTMOUTH 0 Vic Raponi recovered a Dartmouth fumble, and a few plays later Anthony scored on another pass from Pattee. Pattee completed his afternoon's work by hurling a bullet pass to Gizzarelli on the 12-yard line, from which point Gizzarelli romped over un- molested. BARRINGTON TOPPLES WARREN FOR FIRST TIME SINCE 1931 IN LEAGUE COMPETITION I BARRINGTON 7 Approximately 2,000 enthusiastic sup- porters were on hand to witness the twelfth game of the nine-year old series between Barrington and Mfarren, the county rivals. Barrington came out on top and thereby annexed the Bristol County Championship. Pattee and Vic Raponi blocked Warren's first attempted punt, but the home team failed to gain a first down and lost the ball. On the last play in the first period, Pattee again blocked a McSoley punt, but in the mad scramble, a Barrington man was de- tected kicking the loose ball, and it was IVARREN 0 given to the visitors on the four-yard line. The winning touchdown drive began at the Barrington forty-eight-yard line late in the third period. Gizzarelli and Christ car- ried the ball to the seventeen-yard line. Pat- tee drove over his right tackle early in the last quarter for Barrington's lone tally. His placement was excellent. Vic Raponi, Anthony, and Berardi stood out in the Bar- rington line, and Pattee, Gizzarelli, and Christ in the backfield. McSoley was the outstanding Warren player. BARRINGTON LOSES CHAMPIONSHIP TO BURRILLVILLE BARR1 NGTON 6 For the second consecutive year, Barring- ton and Burrillville clashed for Class C supremacy, and again Barrington came out the loser. In the first period, both teams were forced to play a defensive game. Bar- rington produced its score by taking to the air, midway in the second quarter. Pattee's first toss, which was completed to Anthony, was good for 20 yards and a first down at the Burrillville 45-yard marker. His second toss was taken by Berardi at the 30-yard line and he ran to the 21 before he was caught from behind. On the third aerial, Anthony 56 BURRILLVILLE 7 scored standing up. Pattee's placement was wide. Play in the third period was even, with Burrillville receiving the break when Barrington was penalized 15 yards. Burrill- ville's score came in the fourth period, after Barrington had successfully held for three downs. A Rathier-to-Mosian aerial provided the score. The former won the game, by adding the extra point on a line buck. VVith three minutes left to play, Barrington travelled 45-yards to Burrill- ville's 15-yard line, only to be held for downs.

Four goals by Munroe in the final minutes of play clinched the game. TRAHANIS BASKET BEATS EAST GREENIVICH BARRINGTON 30 The last period of the Barrington-East Greenwich tilt was a thriller. Barrington was ahead 24-22 as it opened. Mfith less than a minute to play, Eddy put the EAST GRE.ENXVICH 29 Academy in front 29-28. This was Tra- han's cue to the game, and he came through by Hnding the range with 10 seconds left of playing time.

The first half was marked by Barrington's superior handling of the ball and good shooting in the CUMBERLAND 32 pinches. In the third period Cabral and Sorzek tried to close the lead, but with four minutes left to play, the latter was banished from the game, for having an argument with Trahan. 58 LATE RALLY VVINS FOR BARRINGTON BARRINGTON 28 In a non-league game played at East Providence, Barrington came from behind to defeat Country Day. By doing so, Bar- rington's basketball team remained un- defeated. The visitors held a 6-5 lead at COUNTRY DAY 25 the end of the first period. Captain Pip Commandich dominated play for Country Day in the second quarter and put his team ahead by a big margin. Barrington rallied when Commandich went out on fouls in the third period. BARRINGTON CON QUERS COLT BARRINGTON 39 The Class C race was narrowed down to Barrington and Cumberland when both teams scored their tenth interscholastic league triumph. Barrington's victory was won at the expense of Colt before a capa- city crowd in the new Andrews gymnasium at Bristol. Barrington's passing, and the COLT MEMORIAL 28 accurate shooting of its two high scoring forwards, Anthony and Munroe, enabled Barrington to maintain a lead throughout the entire game. Pattee played well until he was lost on fouls midway through the last period. BARRINGTON TOPS SOUTH KINGSTOXVN BARRINGTON 44 An impressive 44-23 victory was scored at the expense of South Kingstown. It was Barrington's eleventh straight win. Mun- roe and Beaver set the pace, and pulled their team to a commanding lead. Cap- SOUTH KINGSTOWN 23 tain Earl Belknap of South, who was the game's high scorer with 16 points, was the only invader to cause Barrington trouble. BARRINGTON UPSET BY NORTH KINGSTOVVN BARRINGTON 21 Barrington was defeated for the first time in twelve games by North Kingstown in a thrilling battle on the latter's court. Barrington led throughout the Hrst half, but in the second half the close guarding NORTH KINGSTOWN 24 and sharpshooting of the Kingstown lads enabled them to close the gap. Mfith two minutes to play, Johnson scored two baskets for North, and they held grimly to this lead until the end. ACADEMY STAGES COMEBACK TO DEFEAT BARRINGTON BARRINGTON 33 Barrington suffered its second consecu- tive upset of the season at the hands of East Greenwich.

Thirty-two fouls were called throughout the game. Barrington made good on eleven foul conversions. This was the last interscholastic game which Far- num, Munroe, Berardi, Beaver, and Pattee played for Barrington.

The final outcome was a victory for the sophomores, the score being l8-9. Abatuno was high scorer with four baskets to her credit.

The sophomores played less effectively than they had against their previous opponents. SENIORS 25 Only one senior appeared for their initial game with the juniors. As a result, sophomores, Fiske and D. Chichester, and juniors, B. joynes and P. Mackinney, were borrowed for the' occasion. R. Giardini volunteered from the side-lines.

SOPHOMORES 25 of the senior guards, and were out on top when the final whistle was blown. The score was 25-17. L. Giardini and J. Abatuno were high scorers, with 13 and 11 points respectively. FRESHMEN 3 -I. Abatuno captured the sophomore scor- ing honors by a total of seven points. M. Phillips scored her team's lone three points. j JUNIORS 15 ring. Credit for the senior victory should be given to the five substitutes who filled in the senior postions. In the latter part of the double-header, another upset was scored, when the fresh- men defeated the juniors 16-14. Leading until the third period, the juniors Hnally collapsed before the freshmen. M. Phillips was individual star, caging three baskets and converting two points via the foul line. T. Santilli was the outstanding player for the juniors. , A JUNIORS 1 tall sophomore guards played very well. In the third period, T. Santilli scored the one and only point for the juniors, this coming as a result of a foul conversion. CHEERLEADERS Left to right: J. Aultman, E. Tiffany, L. Giardini, M. Perry, H. Nvilkins, N. Perry.

ANTHONY S. lXdARTIN The Student Council, as we all know, has been very active this year. Anyone peeking through the library doors during a Friday homeroom period would find its members and advisers hard at work solving the school problems and adding to the conveniences of the students. Vile seniors hope that in the future, undergraduates will continue to feel free to consult their class representatives on any school problem, and that this organization will increase in importance to the pupils.

PHYLLIS CRAXVSHAWV possible and highly successful. This weekly club presents at each meeting an interest- ing program of impromptu entertainment. During the past year a number of well- known plays have been read and a great deal of material has been gathered concern- ing the rudiments of good acting. 69 OPERETTA-PRINCIPALS Back row, left to right: Mr. Schuyler Sampson, R.

The cast includes a prince with rose fever, a talkative princess, a king with sleeping sickness, a quack doctor, and other equally comical characters. It is directed by Mr. Sampson, our music supervisor, who is as- sisted by Miss Tillson as dancing instructor and Miss Halladay, who is in charge of cos- tumes. Miss Hoenemann and Mr. De Motta are building the scenery, while Miss Gibbs has charge of tickets as usual. The operetta is bound to be a huge success with these combined efforts. BAND ORCHESTRA 7 1 it THE MIDDLE DRAMATIC CLUB The Middle Dramatic Club, under the di- rection of Miss Baker, has been reading short plays to better their sight reading, and trying drills and tongue-twisters to help them perfect their pronunciation. X'Vhen one listens to some of the diction around this school and town, he realizes that this practice is just what we need, an-d it's too bad that more of us could not receive bene- lit from this type of study. TYPING AND SHORTHAND CLUBS Because a large number of junior High students wanted to form the typing club, it was necessary to split the group in half, and alternate the groups with shorthand one week and typing the next. The pupils of THE KNIT A group of about fourteen girls inter- ested in knitting this year organized a club with Miss Maudsley as the instructor. the Typing and Shorthand Club conse- quently will have a slight advantage over their classmates if they take up either of these subjects during their Senior High years. , TING CLUB Their main project is to knit a sweater using many different kinds of stitches. DANCING CLUB The ever-present dancing craze is paci- Hed at Peck High School by the rhythm of a dancing class. Under the leadership of Miss Tillson and Miss Harris, the pupils Q Civics The Civics Club, sponsored by Miss Zwicker, was organized with Lucy Spencer, presidentg' Ruth Nelson, vice-president, Gloria Pierce, secretary, and Carol Newth, treasurer. As one of their activities, the of all grades dance to the musicjprovided by Arlene Cooper at the piano. The pur- pose of the club is to develop, in socially inclined individuals, a better sense of rhythm and poise in the presence of others. CLUB Q Club made and sent valentines to forty-two young children at the Emma Pendleton Bradley Home. Several other interesting projects will be undertaken by the group before the conclusion of the club periods this year. BOYS' COOKING CLUB A group of twenty-five boys from the senior high school have formed a cooking club under Miss Halladay's supervision. The boys elected as their president, Tony Ferri, and as vice-president, Donald Jones. Although they are not very familiar with the different phases of cooking, and their clumsiness sometimes results in minor ca- tastrophes, the club has thus far been very successful. As the boys' skill increases, they plan to invite Mr. Holden and other members of the faculty to one of their meetings. CHRISTMAS ASSEMBLY Everyone, including some visiting alumni, enjoyed the assembly on December 23. Both the Boys' and Girls, Glee Clubs sang under the direction of Mr. Sampson. The or- chestra helped to add some Christmas spirit by playing selections that were in keeping with the season. Ray Farnum read the Christmas story from the Bible. This year's swing band made its debut and drew forth many hearty rounds of applause. The mighty A'Swingeroos were Arline Cooper, Ray Farnum, Kennie Munroe, and the old maestro, Johnnie Hiller. THE AUTOMOBILE CLUB Car drivershto-be of this school had oppor- tunity this year in the Automobile club to hear several local and state officials speak on the laws and rules of safe driving. By the close of the club meeting period the members will be prepared to pass the state examination for operator's licenses. THE FISH AND GAME CLUB Mr. Martin gave instruction in the care of handling guns, in hunting practice, and in fishing technique this year to his Fish and Game Club members. The hunting laws of Rhode Island and their relationship to the life cycles of certain game were ex- plained and discussed. THE CAMERA CLUB Enthusiastic Camera Club members, under the capable guidance of Mr. Earle Collins, worked out several problems in photography this year. This group and the two photography classes are responsible for many of the candid-camera pictures that are in this ARRow. THE HANDICRAFT CLUB Under the supervision of Miss Martin, the Handicraft Club has been busily en- gaged in the art of wood carving. Mfhen they Hnish this unusual occupation, they plan to hammer out some of those attractive silver bracelets that are so fashionable at present. So far there has been only one casualty, and we are glad to hear that it was only a minor one. THE HARMONICA CLUB Under the able direction of Mr. Halling- ton, the Harmonica Club is progressing splendidly this year. There are almost twenty members, the majority of whom could not play the harmonica at all before they joined this club, but now they have become quite proficient in the playing of the instrument. .goczlcdl A'Hang Sorrow! Care will kill a cat, And therefore 1et's be merry. SENIOR CLASS PARTY Doin' the Lambeth Wfalk, oi! This was one of the special features that the senior class swung out on, November 18. Some seniors took advantage of the opportunity to bring outsiders, and the crowd was pepped up by the freshmen jitterbugs pres- ent. Another added attraction was the prize waltz. The faculty judges eliminated couples, and the blue ribbons went to Charlotte Covell and Johnnie Hiller. This party was the gayest of the year, as is char- acteristic of the seniors! Frank Fallon was the evening's music maestro, well supported by the members of his band. Charlotte Covell, judy Aultman, and Millie jones served punch and cookies. . JUNIOR CLASS PARTY The juniors held their class party, De- cember l6, with members of the four upper classes attending, much to the delight of the freshmen, who appeared en masse. Christmas trees and silver stars gave the gymnasium quite a festive air. During the intermission, those three gentlemen of swing , Bob Smith, Edgar Beaver and Ray Farnum, gave us several excellent vocal selections, and members of the social com- mittee served punch and cookies. As seems to have become their custom, the juniors put too much wax on the Hoor, but on the whole, the party was very successful. THE FRESHMAN PARTY The Froshies' Hurricane Party, although the last class dance, turned out to be the most unusual of the year. Placards along the corridors directed Hrefugeesl' to the au- ditorium where students' lives were endan- gered by crepe paper live wires and fallen trees. The hall was overrun with seniors, who, becoming sentimental because it was the last class party they would attend, staged a Big Apple and other impromptu numbers. The closing notes at eleven o'clock were scarcely heard above cheers for each class, as the party came to an end all too soon for everyone. BIRD ASSEMBLY Mr. Allen D. Cruckshawk, sponsored by the Rhode Island Audubon Society, gave an extremely interesting talk on birds and their distinguishing characteristics when he spoke to us, November 14, at the first school assembly of the year. The lecturer showed fine close-up pictures of our A feathered friends through a projection lantern, while he gave several call and song imitations, characteristic of the various birds discussed. The entire school appreciated and enjoyed Mr. Cruckshawkls entertainment. ' That reminds me, he got the bird Qsj -with a camera! SENIOR PLAY THRU THE KEY1-1o1.E, a fast-moving, mod- ern comedy, received hilarious and spon- taneous approval from all. The cast in- cluded Barbara Drummond, Eva Fowler, Charlotte Covell, Marilyn Newth, John Hiller, Raymond Farnum, Duncan Colley, and Anthony Jackson, all of whom turned in excellent performances. The success of the play was largely due to the splendid co- HANCHORS On February 9, John E. Tyckowski, a rc- cruiting ofhcer from Pawtucket, presented interesting pictures about the Navy. Three reels were shown depicting certain phases of naval life. These movies were entertain- ing as well as educational, and students in- operation between the technical staff and the players, but most of the credit should be attributed to the directors, Miss Mona G. Baker and Miss Margarete Hoenemann, who worked patiently and tirelessly. VVe'll all agree, I'm sure, that their efforts were rewarded by the tremendous ovation the play received. AYVEIGHH terested in naval life had an opportunity to ask questions at the end of the Assembly. Credit should be given to the Student Coun- cil for their good judgment in selecting the films. NEVVS IN THF. AIR f Motion pictures, sponsored by the Co- lonial Beacon Oil Company and presented to the entire school March l, told the story of how the business of transmitting news has developed with the advancement of civilization. The primitive method of beat- ing drums was contrasted to the most mod- ern means-that of using radio for instanta- neous contact with the whole world. The program was brought to a close with the showing of a short comic reel. Both News in the A ir and Terry Toon Adventures were greatly appreciated and enjoyed by every- one. MONOLOGIST On January 20, Professor I'Villis Harri- man came to the school and entertained the senior high with a number of readings. The selections, taken from modern and classical plays, represented a variety of moods and emotions. His superb interpretation of Shakespeare's Shylock opened the program, and convinced all students of the Profes- sor's talent. As previously hinted by Mr. Holden, his sense of humor was very keen. While he enacted the role of Sir John Fal- staff with his puffy cheeks and monstrous stomach, the hall rocked with gales of laugh- ter. The burst of applause which greeted Professor Harriman's last sketch demon- strated, better than words, the approval and the admiration of all. SMALL TOVVN BOY MAKES GOOD One of the most interesting of all the assemblies held this year took place on February 14. A former student of Peck School, Maurice Magee, gave a lecture on his trek with thirty-five other young college men across the original Northwest Terri- tory. The speaker told about some of the hardships the group experienced in making the historical trip that they were re-enact- ing. The lecture was entertaining and amusing. During this assembly, the fourteen members of the Rhode Island Honor Soci- ety, and the D. A. R. winner were an- nounced. This latter honor was bestowed on Judith Aultman. DICTATORSHIP VS. DEMOCRACY On Monday, February 27, Mr. Gaylord YV. Douglas gave a talk on Diclatorship Versus Democracy. This subject was very interesting to us because these topics are all-important in the conversation of the world of today. Mr. Douglas made it quite humorous in parts, but yet did not detract from the seriousness of the subject. BASKETBALL DANCE On March 4, members of the school, their guests, and several former pupils of Peck danced to the captivating rhythm of Buddy Nolan's orchestra at one of the mer- riest parties of the year. The inclement weather prevented many from attending, but those who did wallow out through the mud found it well worth their while. Cook- ies and punch were served by members of the team and their guests. The basketball squad and Student Council sponsored this dance. SOPHOMORE CLASS PARTY The sophomore class held their party on March 17, in the assembly hall, which was decorated with green paper shamrocks to provide the Irish atmosphere. The music, FOOTBALL On December 15, 1938, the football team was feted by the school, marking the end of a highly successful season. A turkey din- ner was served by the cheerleaders, under the direction of Miss Blackmar, Miss Halla- day, and Miss Gizzarelli. Mr. Holden did another fine job as toastmaster, and during 78 furnished by Buddy Nolan's orchestra, sup- plied a gay background for the evening. Refreshments were served by the commit- tee, and the party proved to be one of the most successful of the year. BANQUET the evening, jimmy Anthony was elected captain of next year's team. The chief speaker of the evening was Coach Cleo O'Donnell of St. Anselm's College in New Hampshire. He brought out the fact that headwork, perseverance, and determination make a candidate a good football player.
