The sport¬ ing interest of every true American was cen¬ tered on Los Angeles, where the tenth and greatest Olympiad was being held. Every loyal citizen of this country rejoiced to see the relations strengthened between the forty-eight nations competing. At the same time each was thrilled at the sight of the athletes of the United States surpassing the best that these same forty-eight countries had to offer. We may indy regard our young people with pride, and may be assured that they have endeavored to become “Citius, Al- tius, Fortius”, as the Olympic emblem designates. To MLss Adeline Bell Wetmore, whose un¬ failing interest, efficient assistance, and cheerful enthusiasm for our class have made possible all of its plans, we, the Class of 1933A, in appreciation of her generous efforts on our behalf, gratefully dedicate this, our Year Booh. f?ar look iaff Editor An-Chief WILLIAM MAIN.

Vice President DOROTHY DAVIS Secretary HAROLD SETTLES Treasurer CARROLL ANDERSON Browne College Radio Physical Culture Club. Car is the blonde member of our class ivho never seems to be interested in the class he’s in, but who sur¬ prises us bn making a recitation that woidd put the best of us to shame. He has a don’t-care attitude and a disinterested expression on his face, which is just con- tramj to his real nature, as those acquainted with him know. GERTRUDE MARIE ANDERSON Browne Commercial Secretary Usona; MacDowell Club; Operetta; Biology Club; Class Day, Program Committee. Red heads are said te be dangerous. Is she? Rather demure and grave, Gert makes an excellent appearance. She has a fine voice, and is an up-to-the minute gal! LOUISE MARY ANTICO Browne General Nurse To judge by the specimens she has captured, Jimmy has a nature that is biologically inclined. She is even going so far as to be a nurse. Hope she won’t slash us up the way she does the frogs in the biology class. REBECCA BADEN Lincoln Commercial Boston University “Uncle Sam’s Roll Call”. Betty has glistening hair of gold, Oh! but it’s nat’ral as in days of old. Always smiling as the shining sun, We’re sure that her task will be well done. ROBERT BAKER Lincoln College Columbia Greenroom Dramatic Society; M. H. S. English Club, Treasurer; Senior Recep tion, Chairman Decoration Com¬ mittee; Senior Screamer Staff, Reporter; Year Book Staff, Advertising Assistant; Class Day, Program Committee. Robby, as he is labeled, has great artistic abilities which we all appreciate around party-time. He possesses not only artistic traits but also an alert 7nind which has won many good marks for him. Robert is classed among the best dressed fellows of the class. Everyone likes him because of his smile. EILEEN HENRIETTA BENSON Browne General MacDowell Club ’32; “Riding Down the Sky”; Biology Club; Senior Reception, Decoration Committee. Benscn is one of those perpetual gum-chewers. When¬ ever you sec jaws in motion and hear a funny giggle — that’s Eileen. But for all her gum-chewing, she is good company, and very good-looking besides. FRED SUMNER BENSON, Jr. Browne General University of Alabama Football; Basketball ’30; Class Representative ’32; Senior Reception, Usher, Decoration Committee; Year Book Staff, Advertising Assistant. The Deacon is the man with the well-groomed hair, who successfully combines good looks with common sense. He has quite a method when it comes to selling things for the class. We thank him for bemg such a good worker even on occassions when there is no glory in it for him. IDA BENSON Browne General Nurse We’ve got quite a number of blushing blondes in our midst, but here’s a blusher that’s dark. Bants, as she is affectionately labeled, is liked by all. She certainly knows the meaning of friendship, for she and Jimmy are in¬ separable pals. M.H.S LORAINE EVALD BERGGREN Lincoln Commercial Commercial School Greenroom Dramatic Society; Class Play; “Uncle Sam’s Poll Call”; Senior Reception, Skit; Usona. Bunny is a talented girl. She can combine business a,nd pleasure in a way that is really remarkable. Her acting ability deserves great praise. If anyone is in need of a competent secretary, Bunny is the one, for she has had plenty of experience under Mr. Nash. MOLLY ESTELLE BLOCK Lincoln Commercial Katherine Gibbs Here ' s the lady that is the proud owner of two dim¬ ples which function often, for she is always smiling her way triumphantly through hard work. No wonder she is labeled Dimples. MORRIS BOOCK Lincoln General University of Texas This model of manhood is a person who keeps us in the best of humor. His jokes are a never-ending source of amusement to the class, and trouble to the teachers. Book is very clever in drawing cartoons and writing poetry. A future Bud Fisher or Tennyson, which? IRMA L. BRADFORD Beebe Commercial Interior Decorating School MacDowell Club. Irma is the dashing maiden who slides into seat No. 51 at 7:59 in the morning. She always manages to make it, too. She has been ever cheerful and friendly through¬ out her High School days, and has won the admiration of her friends. 6t nmk n HARRIET EDGECOMB BROWN Beebe College Normal School Girls’ Chorus; Usona; Senior Reception, Usher; Card Party Committee; Year Book, Subscription Manager. Brownie loves to argue with the teachers, and has a passion for having things explained to her. Her readiness to help and her cheerful humor have made her a valuable member of our class. JOSEPH EDWARD BURNS Centre General Joe is generally a man of few words, but he uses them fluently at the right time. Joe and Dutchy and the chariot are an inseparable trio. LAURA BELLE CALVIN Centre General Stenographer There isn’t much we can say about Tooie because she is so quiet—that is, in school. However, we do know that she is good company and a cheerful person to have around. ABRAHAM CASWELL Lincoln General University of Southern California A l constantly keeps us amused with his continuous use of big words, which he generally uses before con¬ sulting Noah Webster. His mental capacity seems to run along poetic lines, too, when spring approaches. ESTHER CHIET Lincoln Commercial “Uncle Sam’s Roll Call”. Es is a quiet little lady, always cheerful. What a stenographer she’ll make for someone! When women rule the country, Es will probably be among the leaders be¬ cause of her perseverance and desire to get ahead in the world. GEORGE STAVROS CHRISTOU Beebe College University of Southern California Band ’31, ’32. Big Chris, as he is affectionately called, has been most essential to the band during his M. H. S. career. His many friends are an evidence of his popularity. Big Chris, we all know, does things in a big way. ISA WALTON CLISBY Beebe College Salem Normal Usona; Orchestra; Senior Screamer, Reporter. Both teachers and pupils have discovered that Isby is a girl who can always be relied on. She takes her school work seriously and puts her best into it. If you become better acquainted with her, you discover she is not always so serious, but has a nice sense of humor. SILICO ENGENI) COLANGELI Beebe General University of California Football Team, Second Squad. Sil may be termed the “gossip bearer” of Edgeworth. Practically every day he has some choice tidbit for us. Sil is one of the few persons in the class who doesn’t have to get his feet wet on rainy days, because he has a neiv Nash at his disposal. What luck some people have! ARLINE JACQUELYN COLE Browne General Masseuse Opera Club; “Bells of Beaujolais”; “His Royal High¬ ness”; “Riding Down the Sky”; “The Ghost Story”; Senior Reception, Decoration Committee; Senior Screamer Staff; Biology Club; Class Party, Usher; Football Usher, ’31, ’32; Year Book Staff, Manager of Biographies; “Uncle Sam’s Roll Call”. Mix about a peck of good looks and personality; add a couple of quarts of Snap and It; throw in a bushel of Sociability, and add a few pecks of Popularity for good measure. Boil this mixture down to one hundred and two pounds. Don ' t wait for it to cool off, and there you have Peanut Cole. WILLIAM FRANCIS CONNELLY Beebe Scientific Pat has that “don ' t-care” attitude that we would like to have but never do. He has found from experience that legs were made to be put under desks, not in aisles. He has a habit of eating candy behind covers and making side remarks in class that set the class to laughing. JOHN DUDLEY COOPER Browne General Nautical Training Ship We all know Johnny as a serious chap who has a strong liking for fancy ties. His liking for good ties is as strong as his liking for friends, of which he has -many. ALICE CREMER Lincoln Commercial Nurse At is the class bookkeeping expert. Every recess there is a crowd around her asking how to do this, that, and the other thing in today’s bookkeeping lesson. Her readiness to help and her understanding have icon for her many firm friends.

Dan is certainly a capable man wh en it comes to doing things. Bat his main interest is music, and he certainly knoivs his notes! Dan is popular with everyone —you never see him without a smile and a good word, for someone. “A valiant youth with a face as bright as the morning. ' ’ DOROTHY RUTH DAVIS Browne General Stenographer Treasurer of Class, ’31; Secretary of Class, ’32; Senior Reception, Usher; Year Book, Biographer. Dot is another dark-haired, good-looking member of our class. As treasurer and secretary she was both popular and efficient. Dot is also one of the best dressers among the girls. GORDON WINTHROP DAVIS Beebe College University of Maine Year Book, Associate Editor; “The Bells of Beaujo- lais”; “His Royal Highness”; “Riding Down the Sky”; Class Party, Chairman of Decoration Committee, “The Ghost Story”; Senior Screamer; Senior Reception, Skit, “Sham”; Opera Club; Boys’ Glee Club; Class Representa¬ tive; Class Prophet; Class Day, Program Committee. Gordon is rightly dubbed the class tvit, for it isn’t possible that anyone else can manufacture clever remarks as fast as he. He is always three steps ahead of the other fellow. His acting and vocal abilities have gained him much prominence and popularity with everyone in and out of school. Three cheers for the fellow who can combine brains and good looks and make a success of it! HARLEY ALBERT DAVIS Beebe General Dartmouth Football. Bub has kept the sport fans well informed with his knowledge of results of hockey, baseball, wrestling , and boxing. He evidently likes to chauffeur, to judge from what we’ve seen around town. I933A FRANK DE PERRIO Beebe General Holy Cross Baseball ’30, 32; Football Second Squad ’30, ’31. A blessing to any baseball coach. Can he play! Watch for Dippy in the big leagues in the near future, either as a short stop or a water boy. EDMUND DE VERE Beebe General Boss Painter Football ’31; Swimming ’31; Track ’31. Here we have our Eddy De Vere, a likable chap who is handsome and cheer fid from morning until night. ARTHUR DEWEY Immaculate Conception General Arthur is a tall, very curly-haired fellow. He is always making friends with someone, not neglecting the opposite sex. DOROTHY HALL DOLLOFF Centre General Massachusetts Memorial Hospital Biology Club; Club Scandals. Dottie’s motto is “Variety is the Since of Life.” What would happen if she lost that smile of hers? We ' d all like to know Dottie.

This is the smallest member of our class, being just four feet, eleven inches, and weighing eighty-five pounds. She is a conscientious and willing worker. Personality plus popularity plus a spark of T.N.T. along with a doll- face equals Phyllis. FLORENCE ESTHER DRAKE Beebe Commercial Leslie School Football usher. Since little has been said of Babe in activities during the last three years, we presume there have been other things to take up her time. Perhaps they were more interesting than activities. Can we come in on the secret, Babe? BERTHA MARJORIE ELMSTROM Beebe College Russell Sage Girls’ Elective Chorus, ’30; Usona, Board of Directors; Class Party ’31, Decorating Committee; Senior Reception, Usher, “Sham”; Card Party Committee, ’32; Year Book, Advertising Staff. Some are known by their faces, but Bert is known for her words. “Always a good word for everyone” is her motto. She has entered many activities and rendered much service to everyone. She will go through life mak¬ ing the world better because she has been in it. IOLANDA S. FAIELLA Beebe Commercial Iolanda ' s ways are very pleasant and lead her only through paths of peace. Some day, somewhere, someone will have an excellent bookkeeper. HENRY CHARLES FELLMAN, Jr. Beebe Scientific Boston University Rifle Club. Crimpy seems to have one idea in his mind and that is PRINTING. Some day all the papers, pamphlets, and what-not will bear “Henry Fellman, Jr.”, on them. RICHARD MORROW FERGUSON Beebe General Dick is a man of action, not words. He keeps to him¬ self, and ’tis whispered he’s a woman hater! Seeing that he conceals his feelings cleverly, you would almost call him “The man with the Iron Mask”. MAX ELIHU FISHELSON Centre College Massachusetts College of Pharmacy Orchestra ’30, ’31, ’32; Band ’31, ’32; Glee Club ’30, ’31; Operetta Orchestra ’30, ’31, ’32; Concert Band. Introducing the mighty Fish! The man that supplies the most comedy in the classrooms, in the band, and in the orchestra; the man that cheers up weary soids. RACHEL FISHMAN Lincoln General Boston University Health Club, Publicity Manager; Year Book, Sub¬ scription Manager. Ray’s favorite topic of discussion is the “Kids at Dartmouth”. She is of the jolly, happy-go-lucky type, whose interest lies in her studies and in her friends. mhs ROBERT HAVEN FREDERICK Beebe General Biology Club. Bob is the fellow whom you always see with Bill Spragg. He never seems to be rushed by anything, has a good sense of humor, and is liked by everyone. We admire him for not being serious and wish that ice could have his airy assurance. CONSTANCE ELAINE FULLER Centre General Lelancl Powers School of Expression Usona; Cog Prize Speaking Contest ’30; “The Ghost Story”; Year Book Staff, Art Staff. Connie surely will be missed in several classes as she is the only one who seems to know answers. She is quite a history shark, or maybe she’s bluffing. Anyxvay, she’s doing right in going to a school of Expression! DOROTHY MUNSON GARDNER Beebe Normal Salem Normal Usona, Keeper of the Files; Biology Club Scandals. A girl who is always a little ahead, especially in doing the Latin assignments, is Dot. She is very con¬ scientious, serious, and a good worker. You can always depend on her, and whatever she undertakes to do, she is sure to do it well. MARY THERESA GILMORE Browne General Stenographer Mary is just like a mouse—quiet and yet friendly. She’s pleasant to walk with, and easy to talk with. GEORGE GLISERMAN Lincoln General George is one of those people who flit from branch to branch. You never know where to find him. George has a habit of appearing suddenly and yelling in your ear. He is very talkative, too. FORREST HAMILTON GORDON GRAHAM Lincoln General Year Book, Art Staff.

He is a fellow possessing real artistic ability and also ability in “tickling the ivories. ANNIE GOLDSTEIN Lincoln Commercial B. U. Business Administration Opera Club. Ann has quietly but successfully completed her course. She has made many friends among the teachers and students. We know she ' ll continue her great work.

Her charming manner has ever added an extra beat to the masculine hearts and has wovi her a great many friends. JACOB DAVID GREEN Lincoln General Suffolk Law Opera Club ’30; Glee Club ’30. Jack is one of the few ideal personages that we know. He is not loud-spoken, but the contrary, and from the way he applies himself, we know he has some object in view. Anyone as conscientious as he can be nothing but a success. RUTH REBECCA GREEN Lincoln General Portia Law Ryckye is a very charming person to know. She is always pleasant to everyone. She has a pretty smile and a way about her which have icon for her many friends. BENJAMIN GREISDORF Lincoln College Massachusetts College of Pharmacy Jerking sodas and filling prescriptions will soon be an easy thing for Ben, for he intends to be a pharmacist. All we ask is that he doesn’t give us strychnine when we ask for aspirin. ALBERT GUSTAFSON Quincy Trade School Scientific Massachusetts Institute of Technology Gus is a person who has the faculty of blushing very easily. He is a tall fellow, with a crop of blonde curly hair that won ' t stay combed. He has a firm quietness and reserve about him that makes us all like him. ABRAHAM HALPERN Lincoln College Boston University Cog, Secretary ’32, President ’32, Debating Team ’31, ’32; Year Book, Advertising Staff; Senior Screamer, Associate Editor. This person is the most loquacious member of our class. Al could talk for hours and hold the attention of his listeners. Credit should be given him as the originator of the Senior Screamer. WILLIAM JOSEPH HARDIMAN Beebe College Massachusetts State Football, Second Squad; Tennis. Bill is a person who seems to get a kick out of life. He is well liked by everyone and has a sense of humor that is all Hardiman. Bill is a good tennis player and has had a great many victories on the court. ALMA HARRISON Beebe General Stenographer Senior Screamer, Stenographer. Al, one of the good-natured girls in our class, has golden tresses and a sweet smile. She is quiet but always ready and willing to work for anyone at any time. ARAM HAYDOSTIAN Centre General Cog. Aram is the man of many businesses, and yet he keeps on the honor roll. Aram is the so-called “sheik’’ because of his everlasting sideboards which he takes great pride in preserving. Because of his outside interests, he hasn’t participated in many school activities. JOHN WILLIAM HOLLAND Centre Manual Arts The folks that associate with Holland never get in “Dutch’’. Dutchy is another one of those Coolidge-like individuals who think before they speak. ELIZABETH HOLMES Beebe College Russell Sage Girls’ Choir ’31; Class party, refreshment committee ’31; Bridge Party, Chairman; Senior Reception ’32, Usher; Usona; Class Day, Program Committee.

WALTER WINSTON HUNT Centre Scientific Wentworth Institute Baseball; Basketball; Boys’ Glee Club. Who’s the fellow whose deep bass voice in chorus is heard above everyone elses? No need to ask; it’s Wini. Who’s always talking about radio? Why, it’s Wini! JOSEPH JACOB HURWITZ Lincoln College Harvard Joe is a very brilliant chap, and lie’s just the type of student that is sure to succeed. Instead of entering school activities, Joe has used his extra time to better advantage. Besides graduating from high school, Joe is also graduating from the Hebrew Teachers’ College. MARGARET EVELYN JOHNSTON Beebe General Framingham Normal Biology Club, Minstrel Show; MacDowell Club. Dolly is another person who observes the adage, “Silence is golden”.

Happy is quite a busy man in our class. He is always on the jump and in everything as may be seen by his list of activities. He was especially valuable to us in his Senior Screamer work. LILLIAN KATZ Lincoln General Stenographer Health Club ’82. Libby is sensible and quite popular with her class¬ mates. She is a good student who does all her work diligently. Another thing we notice about her is her stylish mode of dressing. DOROTHY ISABEL KERR Beebe General Physical Training School MacDowell Club; “Riding Down the Sky”. Billy is the girl that runs around with Vera. She’s the kind of verson who keeps smiling through all sorts of difficulties. We appreciate Dot for her cheerfulness and optimism. FLORENCE JOAN KEVORKIAN Beebe Commercial Secretary “Your Royal Highness”; “Riding Down the Sky”; Usona; MacDcwell Club; Opera Club; Year Book Staff, Stenographer; Music Appreciation Class. Flossie is the nightingale or linnet of our class. She leaves quite a record of vocal accomplishments behind her, as well as an impression of a very cute dark-haired miss. DOROTHY FRANCES KIMBALL Browne General Framingham Normal MacDowell Club; Music Appreciation Class; “The Ghost Story”. Dot is the charming young lady whose graceful ways are well known to us. She is very good-natured and a fine friend to have. Her acting ability has been well demonstrated. OLIVE KING Medford High General Art School Biology Club, “The Lights Went Out”; Year Book, Art StafF; Sargent Alt Club, Publicity Manager. When Ollie came to us from Medford, Medford lost a splendid girl. Of course, you all know her; she’s the tall, slim, pretty blonde with a perpetual smile lighting her way through life. CELIA BELLA KRICHMAR Lincoln General Stenographer Celia is a very bright girl. How does she get all those A’s in her English tests? If you wish to know any¬ thing, ask Celia. ESTHER LINTZ Lincoln Commercial Bookkeeper Music Appreciation Class. Essie is a quiet girl who keeps to herself and does not mingle with many. She dresses attractively and is very good in her studies. HARRY LONDON Lincoln College Harvard Music Appreciation Club; Track ’30, ’31, ’32; Band ’30, ’31, ’32; Orchestra ’30, ’31, ’32; Special Orchestra; Concert Band ’32. One of the pestiest, funniest, and yet best liked fellows of the class is none other than Harry London. He is quite a character. He’s always arguing with teachers to give him a chance, or borrowing somebody’s homework; but he’s always willing to help anybody in distress. A classroom without Hashey is simply dead. MARION B. LONDON Lincoln College Jackson Green Room Dramatic Society; Senior Reception, Usher; Class Party, Decoration Committee; “The Ghost Story”; Football Usher ’32. If anything is happening and Marion isn’t there, something’s wrong somewhere. She’s always there and talking. Boobie is also one of the hardest workers and is popular ivith those who know her. M.H.S. VERA ROSE LORD Centre Commercial Salvation Army College Usona; “Uncle Sam’s Roll Call”; Band Festival; Basketball, Second Team. Continually chewing gum, laughing and talking, never without ankle socks, — that’s Vera. Her smile, her good humor and friendliness are always in evidence. Vera has set records also in selling candy. ISADORE LUDWIN Lincoln Scientific Massachusetts State Swimming Team; Blue and Gold; Biology Club. Here is the fellow who talks and talks and talks. Just try to stop him. Issie is always willing to argue. Furthermore, he is always haunting the library in order to gain knowledge, so he says. PHYLLIS TAYLOR MacNEILLY Beebe Normal Katherine Gibbs Card Party Committee. Phil is the joiliest girl in the class. Everyone is familiar with her hearty laugh and can’t help laughing with her. She is also known for her excellent taste in clothes. JOHN RICHARD MADDEN Beebe College Track Team; Football, Second Squad. A devil with freckles is a rare thing to see. We’ll tell you a secret,—John is nothing but a big boy, grown young. His cheerful personality and his everlasting de¬ sire to avoid homework makes him a typical Malden High School student. We can’t understand how John can have such a good time in school and get away with it. WILLIAM HENRY MAIN, Jr. Centre College Harvard Year Book, Editor-in-chief; Track ’31, Capt. ’32, ’33; Vice President Class 5, 6, 7, 8; English Club, President; Cog, Vice President, Chairman Eighth Annual Prize Speaking Contest, Chairman of First Annual Open House Night; Greenroom Dramatic Society; Class Ring Com¬ mittee; Chairman, Class 6 Party; Senior Reception Com¬ mittee. Bill has been a member of the track team for three Hears, and he ' s still running ahead of the rest of us. He is one of the most popular and best looking of the males of our class. He is always proving he can work hard. Bill has an awfully cute trick of wiggli ng his eyebrows. We shall always remember him, too, for his everpresent smile. JOHN HENRY McELROY, Jr. Browne General Trinity John wouldn’t look natural without an algebra book in his hand. He tries to give us the impression of a student, but instead he gives the effect of a quiet person who minds his own business. CECELIA MELTZER Beebe College Radcliffe “Uncle Sam’s Roll Call”; Class Party, Usher, Chair¬ man Entertainment Committee; Senior Reception, Usher, Chairman Entertainment Committee; English Club, Executive Board; Greenroom Dramatic Society, Member¬ ship Committee; Blue and Gold, News Editor; Senior Screamer, News Editor; Year Book Staff, Biographer; Football Usher, ’32. Judging by Cecelia’s list of activities, she will be something in this world. We know she must have a veritable tome of knowledge, because she has been exposed to so many books at the Public Library. Good luck to you, Cecelia! WILLIAM FREDERICK MERRILL Beebe Scientific Tufts College Greenroom Dramatic Society, President ’31; Year Book Staff, Advertising Assistant; “Sham”; “The Ghost Story”; Track ’31; Band ’31, ’32; Glee Club ’30.

ETHEL RUTH MILLER Beebe Commercial Boston University “Bells of Beaujolais”; “ His Royal Highness; “Riding Down the Sky”; Opera Club; MacDowell Club; Usona; Basketball Team; Tennis Team; Hockey Team; Football Usher; Senior Reception Committee; Music Appreciation Club. A girl who is one of the outstanding athletes in our class is Scid. She is also interested in music and drama¬ tics. There is no one who can think of more humorous things to do and sag than Scid. NATHAN MILLER Lincoln College Boston University Cog, Prize Speaking Contest ’30, ’31, Debating Team ’32; Blue and Gold, Advertising Manager, ’30, ’31; Year Book, Subscription Manager. Nathie finds great enjoyment when using his powers of speech, as far as we know, he is forever enjoying him¬ self. Nathie has been a valuable man to the organization in which he has been active. CHARLES EDWARD MORRISON Beebe General Manual Training Biology Club. Another man of few words is Eddy. No, he never blushes; that’s his natural complexion—a complexion that ivomen would give millions for. WALTER EMIL MORTON Browne General Massachusetts Institute of Technology Class Party, Chairman Dance Committee; Senior Reception, Chairman Dance Committee; Orchestra ’30, ’31, ’32.

When the occasion demands, she can be jolly. FRANCIS FREDERIC MUSKER Lincoln General Senior Reception, Entertainment; Biology Club, Biology Club Minstrel Show; Class Representative; Di¬ rector of Physical Culture Club; Class Day, Program Committee.

JAMES RICHMOND NIXON Centre College Boston University Baseball, Manager ’31; Football, Second Squad ’30; Rifle Club. Nick is the boy who can ' t talk fast enough, even though he has plenty of time. Nick takes quite an interest in athletics and other things. He also likes to make new friends, and his quiet personality is liked wherever he goes. MARY NOTARANGELI Beebe Commercial Burdett Opera Club; Year Book Staff, Stenographer. Preside is the small dark-haired miss, always talking or doing bookkeeping. Freshie has quite a contagiously mirthful nature if anything happens to strike her as being funny. We imagine she has a serious side, but she cer¬ tainly doesn ' t display it. ISADORE ROBERT NOVICE Lincoln College Tufts Baseball ’30, ’31, ’32; Basketball ’30, ’31, ’32; Tennis ’30, ’31, ’32; Football ’31, ’32; Track ’32; Class Party; “The Ghost Story”. Can he play football? Certainly! Can he weild a mighty tennis racket? And how! Can he dance? Divine¬ ly! Is he — er—susceptible to the wiles of women? Not much. Of course, you ' ve guessed by now we are talking of Pippy Novick. MARJORIE HARRIETTE NUDD Beebe Commercial Stenographer Senior Screamer, Stenographer; Usona; Senior Re¬ ception, Usher; Year Book, Stenographer. Marg is a happy-go-lucky, jolly person.

ASUOARMAK w SENIORS Ottoriala THE EFFECT OF THE DEPRESSION ON HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATES High school graduates seem to have the odds against them this year on account of business conditions. As times have changed, so have condi¬ tions facing the young graduate changed. In years past the graduate was hopeful of immediately securing a position, and was sought by many employers. So at the end of his high school career, he was usually without worries about his future work, and was also somewhat independent. If it was college he had been preparing for, to college he went; or if it was work he desired, in a short time, he became, either by his own efforts or through influence, one of the great “working class.” This year, the young graduate is filled with apprehension as to what the future holds in store for him. He has absolutely nothing in mind, yet has all the time in the world in which to do nothing. This is not be¬ cause of laziness or lack of interest on the part of the graduate, but because of business conditions. He has prepared himself for college; graduating, he finds himself without any business opportunity and without money to continue his studies. What to do? Why, look for a job and earn some money, of course. But there are no jobs nowadays! There are long enough lines of the unemployed without the addition of the young graduate. Em¬ ployers are discriminating and have reason to be so with times as they are. Therefore, they want experienced help, if any, and not those young people, still green from school days. This period of depression can change the graduate’s whole course of life; it may throw him into a field of work for which he has no native adaptability, or it may open up unsuspected opportunity of development. These conditions, then, may do the graduate some good. For through these hard times he is able to see that everything in life is not for the taking. For, all through school, he really has had almost everything he wished for without much effort on his own part. Now he must face the world and make his own way. He suddenly becomes more serious, more mature. He is forced to think and plan. Nor will it do him harm to look and look for a job without being successful at first. It will teach him the worth of money and show him that money cannot be secured without effort. From all this we come to the conclusion that, although the graduate is not sure of his future, this depression, of which everyone speaks ill, may be a friend in disguise; it may make him thriftier, more serious, more mature, and in the end a better citizen. OUR SCHOOL CLUBS AND ORGANIZATIONS Do you realize that in the Malden High School there are more clubs, fraternities, and sororities than in any other similar school in the entire state of Massachusetts? (At first thought, this fact may fill you with pride; but don’t be so easily misled.) Within the last five years especially, these “lame duck” orders have sprung up so rapidly that there are now about twenty clubs in existence. Besides these there are numerous fra¬ ternities and sororities that are so defunct that you could offer one of them one hundred dollars, and the treasurer wouldn’t even show up to get it. First, look back into the social history of the High School about seven years. How many clubs do you find functioning at this time? To speak in round numbers, there were five. But were they accomplishing anything beneficial? The answer is made obvious by a glance at a few old copies of the Blue and Gold. The affairs of these organizations, usually staged annually, incited the keenest anticipation and interest among the entire student body. They were long-remembered events, not mere social factors as they are today. Take as means of illustration a play. The night of the performance there would be standing room only for those who came late. Contrast this—for two things so different cannot be compared—with a like program of the present. If two hundred tickets are sold, it’s an un¬ heard of success. It truly is a shame, for the talent is just as good; but the students merely say, “Oh, it’s just another play,” when even the best of the organizations perform. Furthermore, the high standards have been lowered to such an extent that in many cases, the indiscriminate voice of the members seem to say, “Yes, he’s a good guy” or “No, I don’t like him”. Why, almost any Tom, Dick, or Harry is inducted with practically no consideration for his merits. To lower standards is to prepare for defeat. As a result of this, there are two groups which invade the majority of the clubs. One of these is the type that will be present the night of the intaking and never again. However, you may frequently hear them utter in a majestic tone, “Of course I belong to the Happy Club, Stone Club, and the Silver Club.” Incidentally, did you ever see one of these people who did not proudly place the name of the club beside his name for the Year Book? The other group is made up of those who wish only the exceedingly unimportant social side of school life. These people try to take such an active part that many of them receive low marks and thus become undesir¬ able members of any club or school. All they think of is the publicity they may receive. Perhaps they do have their names in the paper a couple of times for reciting a poem at a club meeting. And then what happens? For the next month they strut about the school like prize peacocks. Those whom they honor by addressing must be very fortunate and must feel flattered to have such great personages speak to them. The poor high brows! But never mind as long as they think they’re good. You can laugh up your sleeve at them and there won’t be any holes at the elbow either. For much of this “bigshot” attitude or superiority complex, many of our organizations may be thanked. Why are there so many weak clubs in Malden High? You will not find it difficult to discover why most of them were founded. The excess of them was established by students who could not gain entrance into the organi¬ zations already functioning. They became jealous, launched a drive for charter members, and started a club parallel to the one they could not enter. What resulted? Well, a few of these clubs existed for no longer than a semester. However, those that managed to hang on have been responsible, to a vast extent, for the numerous faults found today. In addition, the spirit so essential to the functioning of a club is generally lacking. A peek at one of the business meetings can readily confirm this fact. The president is usually calling for order. Why? A few of the members are talking among themselves, or shouting boisterously at someone, often the president. Others may be fooling while one loyal member is attempting to say something beneficial. C’est dommage. But, such is the case. What does a member of the faculty see when he favors the club by giving up an evening to address the members? A room so empty that he has to whisper so that the echoes of his voice won’t vibrate for five minutes after each sentence. In other words there are usually ten or fifteen members present. To get these few members to attend, the officers almost have to send automobiles to their houses for them. And so, many of our distinctive organizations have been carrying on until it means nothing to be a member of almost any of them. Keep up your courage; they may wake up some bright day. Generating- The Power For Success Hyman Oxman Glorious health, vibrant energy, and teeming vitality—who would not strive to possess these dynamic vital forces! Today, when we are about to launch forth from a calm and peaceful bay on to the wide open sea of life, which at times may be erupted by storm and wind, or to enter higher institutions of learning to prepare for the journey, these vital assets are more needed than ever before. Every one of us may become a sparkling fountain of energy and life. We become what we make ourselves, and if we wish to attain a possible human state of perfection, we must accomplish it ourselves. This is not due to one or two habits, but to the combination of a number of mental and physical ones. These are, mainly, correct eating, breathing, sleeping, exercising, and thinking. The correct practice of these results in health; their violation leads to degeneration and disease. First of all, run the human machine on a good grade of fuel and build it with a perfect building material. These are natural foods, such as fruits, vegetables, nuts, berries, fresh eggs, and whole grain and milk products. These insure an abundant supply of the vitamines and impart the greatest amount of energy that is utilized by the body. You cannot expect to thrive well on commercially prepared foods that have been robbed of their vital elements, mineral salts, and roughage con¬ tent. Therefore use whole grain breads and cereals, brown rice, and dark sugar or honey and eliminate white flour products, polished rice, and refined sugar. Also eat sparingly of pastries and sweet meats. In addition, do not eat without enjoyment and without hunger, do not bolt your meals, and do not, by overeating, tax organic strength in digestion and assimilation and lessen the strength for other purposes. Also keep your mind in a cheerful state at meal times and dismiss all business cares and mental depression. You will be rewarded by better digestion. Second, breathe fresh air as much as possible. Spend some time in the open air each day, lifting your chest high and breathing deeply. Con¬ stantly force out all the air and then refill the lungs with pure air. This will help to purify your blood by burning up the waste matter. Third, take a reasonable amount of physical activity, spent in work, play, or exercise. The muscular system consists of almost half of the total bulk of the human body, produces two thirds of the body heat, and consumes a large part of our food. Therefore, we see that physical stag¬ nation results in bodily weakness. Let moderation be your guide in physical activity. Never continue it up to the point of exhaustion. Try to get your exercise out of doors, even if it consists only in brisk walking. This will quicken the circulation, force you to breathe deeply, and promote organic strength. Fourth, during sleep, life energy is stored in the system, toxins are eliminated, and worn parts are replaced. You seekers of health, indulge very lightly in dances, parties, and theatres at night. Over attendance at these saps vitality and leaves one lifeless the next day. Get at least eight hours sleep each night, sleep in a well ventilated room, and never eat before retiring. Fifth, since the mind plays an important part in building health and making life a success, cast aside all thoughts of a destructive nature, such as worry, envy, avarice, and despair. Set a goal in life, have faith and confidence in yourself, and be determined to succeed. These health measures have been set forth as briefly as possible, and it will pay you high dividends to study this subject more in detail. A knowledge of the laws of health and an adherence to them will give you the ambition, strength, and vitality to weather safely any storm and to sail triumphantly upon the sea of life. Thinking It Over Gordon Davis Our days at Malden High School are now at an end. Soon we pass out of the minds of the pupils and the teachers, who only remember “that girl with the freckled nose” and “that boy with the buck teeth,” and go out into another life—a life that hasn’t as much fun wrapt up in it as our three years of High School have given us. I think that many of the fondest memories that some of us will have are of things that have happened while we were in school. Who, for example, can forget the times when as Freshmen, we climbed three flights of stairs and fell down two; when one of our number wrote a theme on “Silence”, handing in a blank paper; when spitballs went out of fashion and chalk and erasers came into use; and when some of the fellows daringly, with their hearts in their mouth but putting on a don’t-care attitude, calmly showed their first package of cigarettes? I am sure that these are things that we shall never forget. I know, for example, that I shall always remember one incident that happened to a Post Graduate while I was in High School. It was this last year. A fellow had tripped on the top stair, and he came tumbling down head over heels, landing in a sitting position. He gazed up, and there stood a teacher, looking very sympathetic. “Oh, dear me,” she said, “did you miss a step?” The boy looked up, and, rubbing himself where it hurt the most, said right back to her, “No sir, boy oh boy; I hit every dog- goned one of them!” About two years ago something occurred that I don’t believe many people knew about. The Opera Club had just finished, the bell having rung, and the members were going to their classes. This took place in the days when the “S” period was the third period and the Club rehearsed then. On the way out, a well-known fellow of our class caught his pants on a screw on the back of a chair and made a good three-cornered tear at least five by nine. The poor fellow was distracted, and, because he had tests the next two periods, he did not want to have to be excused. So all through school that day, if you had been very observant, you would have seen this fellow going around with a notebook in his hand, carrying it for no apparent reason. Those in the know had to laugh, for beneath that notebook was a good exposure of a hirsute limb. I hear this fellow now carries a notebook around with him all the time. The craziest things do happen. We hear of fellows shooting at some¬ body else’s target at Rifle Club; teachers droning on about the wrong lesson, which no one has done, and no one realizing it until later; pupils actually falling to sleep in class (maybe you’ve often felt sleepy; but who ever dared to fall asleep?) ; teachers asking a class of boys their telephone numbers (really) ; pupils asking the teachers their telephone numbers (what is the world coming to?); a pupil asking a teacher out to some social event (it happened two years ago, and the poor fellow was almost ejected from school). Wheel when you think it over, a lot of funny things have occurred since we came into High School—which is no wise-crack. Lately a lot of us have been treated to some spectacular breakdowns. Pupils, mostly girls, with excess weight have gone into the wrecking business and have started to tear down the school. Only the other day a girl sat on a desk (this one isn’t fat) and tore it up by its roots. The next day a g irl with more avoirdupois than a normal person should have sat down in a chair; the chair gave a groan, weakened, and settled down to a more comfortable position, depositing the girl on the hard, wooden floor, looking as if she were trying to ride a horse. When spring was in the air, the pupils got a little bit wilder and settled down—for more fun. Statues took on a new aspect with crossed- eyes, painted lips, red moustaches, and with cigarettes in their hands. If you didn’t watch out and you were not suspicious, you were very likely pushed into your locker and kept there. You didn’t dare boast that they wouldn’t get you, for better men than you had spent a miserable few minutes in one. And I suppose when we “grow up” (if we ever do), every time we get together, we’ll talk about the good old days in M.H.S.. forgetting the tests, excuses, and report cards. And we’ll all laugh when we remember how a certain individual, conducting a meeting, was knocked to his knees by a bunch of “rowdies”, still holding his gavel in his hand. We’ll talk of the last minute rush for book-reports; of the time, when, as Freshmen, we tried to get introduced to that nice-looker and found out that she was a teacher; and when, when someone was told to pick up paper on the floor, all the pupils dumped their scrap paper around. We’ll remember how we ducked our candy at recess every time we saw a teacher, and how we’d pin “Kick Me Hard” signs on fellows’ backs. We’ll remember how every Monday was wash day for Miss Child, for it was on that day that the laboratory did its experiments. Since the lab was directly over the Library, Miss Child wore raincoat and rubber boots as a protection against the water that leaked through the roof. Pails were in all parts of the room, and pupils went around with “heads up”. Ah, those were the days! And now those days are over, and they are nothing but memories; but they are memories that will always live and that will always have a place in our hearts. (Elasa Ifiatorg George W. Kaplan Ours is a cause for lament. For three long years we were forced to learn history—history that we didn’t have any part in making. Was that fair? Was it right to make us learn why Spain failed; why England was successful in colonizing America; or why the colonies revolted? Who cares about Columbus, Washington, Frank¬ lin, or Lincoln? They’re all dead. Being taught history while we were making history! Imagine that! After all, nobody cares about what our ancestors did a couple of hundred years ago. Everybody is interested in what we have been doing these past few years. A fair exchange is no robbery. In return for the history of past ages which we so earnestly followed, we now present to future generations a record of our achievements of the past three years. Whistles blew, bells rang, bands played, flags were raised, parades were held, schools were closed, people went to church; all over the city silence and solitude reigned. Why? Well, because it was Sunday. On the morrow, Monday, February 3, 1930, we were to enter Malden High School. No wonder the faculty rested the day before. They realized what they would have to put up with for the next three years. 10A During our first few months in Malden High School we were led quite a merry pace. Clubs, fraternities, sororities, and other organizations hailed us into their ranks. The upper classmen tried to make life miserable for us, but they couldn’t fool us. We were too smart. We knew everything. We all knew that 601 was in the basement, that the library was across the street, and that the manual training room was down by the railroad tracks at the lumber yards. It was a new life for us. We felt the sudden change from junior high. Back there we were personages, but now we were nothing but unimportant sophomores. We felt cooped up; we led a sort of jail-like life. Speaking of jails, how many of us regretfully remember the warden’s office in 120? The warden was kind. Often he would give us two weeks’ vacation so that we might improve our run-down conditions. As soon as we accustomed ourselves to our surroundings, our athletes, by their splendid accomplishments, started the ball rolling. Ruth Miller, Pearle Rudman, Bessie Seigal, and Arlene Urann contributed their ability to the girls’ basketball team, for which the team was none the worse. The lure of the diamond attracted Frank DePerrio, Isadore Novick, Frank Sampson, and George Shanley. It was then that Mr. Goodreau realized that he had a potential champion baseball team in the making. William Hardiman and Isadore Novick proved a blessing to the tennis team with their fine playing. The Blue and Gold, still in existence then, decided that they needed some new blood, so they picked Isadore Ludwin and Nathan Miller as adver¬ tising managers, and Dorothy Doyle as class editor. After six months, word came from the warden’s office that there was to be a drastic shake-up. Room was needed for the new inmates, and as a result we found ourselves in 10B or class 4. 10B Little did we regret the change. Little by little we were creeping into the lime light. Our motto became, “Look out, seniors, we’re coming through.” With the fall came football, and with that sport, fame came to our portals due to the accomplishments of Leo DeMarco, Isadore Novick, Frank Sampson, and Lloyd Tupper. Nathan Miller continued his work on the Blue and Gold as advertising manager with such assistants as Harry Fellman, Cecelia Meltzer, and George Kaplan. Robert Turner had his first taste of journalism when he became news editor. Our class received some excellent write-ups in the school paper, due to Gertrude Shenfield’s ability as class editor. Pauline Gillespie, Ruth Miller, Pearle Rudman, Bessie Seigal, and Ar¬ lene Urann were considered stellar performers on the girls’ hockey team. 11A Promotion beckoned. Most of us heeded its call, and thus found our¬ selves enrolled as juniors. But our ranks were gradually thinning out. Various classmates left school, and other classmates were so satisfied in 10B that they decided to remain for another half year. Frank DePerrio, Isadore Novick, Frank Sampson, and George Shanley were awarded their baseball “M’s”. Robert Turner was promoted to subscription manager on the Blue and Gold, while Gertrude Shenfield continued to fulfill her duties as class editor. William Main and Harold Settles were at this time showing the track team just how it should be done. ORGANIZATION For a whole year we had wandered about aimlessly. We needed a union. The bright thought of organizing struck someone, and sure enough, organize we did! A class was never blessed with such a capable adviser as Adeline Bell Wetmore. Better officers than Frank Sampson, president; William Main, vice president; Gertrude Shenfield, secretary; and Dorothy Davis, treasurer, couldn’t be found anywhere. UNCLE SAM’S ROLL CALL As our part in the 1931-B out-door class day, we presented Uncle Sam’s Roll Call. First we marched eighty strong, with the rest of the student body, from the fire station to the athletic field. There our pageant was represented by a group of girls in foreign costumes and others of the fair sex in white dresses with red, white, and blue streamers. These fair damsels wound about until the letters “U. S.” were formed. These letters were flanked by Walter Hunt dressed as a soldier, and by Mark Levin as a sailor. Robert Turner took the part of Uncle Sam. The thunderous applause awarded to us by the vast multitude of spectators was enough to cause the flags held by our girls to flutter wildly. About this time the tennis team was making quite a “racquet”, due to the efforts of William Hardiman and Isadore Novick. 11B The first hundred years are the hardest. The half way mark is now passed, 11-B faces us. We enter. We are received. Hooray, we’re going places and doing things. Warren McGuirk saw to it that Leo DeMarco and Frank Sampson were well protected from the rigors of a cold winter when he presented them with their well earned football sweaters. CHRISTMAS PARTY Christmas was just around the corner. Most of us believed in Santa Claus, and so we decided that we ought to do something for Santa, as the poor fellow was rather lonely all year round. What to do? What to do? Why not give the boy a party? On December twelfth at eight o’clock everybody in the class, the faculty, and all the invited guests came down to see the man in the red pants. The program was in charge of president Frank Sampson. “The Ghost Story,” a one-act play, was presented with Gordon Davis and Dorothy Kimball in the leading roles. The supporting cast consisted of Loraine Berggren, Arline Cole, Constance Fuller, Marion London, William Main, Fred Merrill, Isadore Novick, and George Kaplan. To round out the program with a little variety, Frank Musker favored the audience with tap dancing selections. The bare, cold, uninteresting gym was transformed through the crea¬ tions of the decorating committee into a veritable cozy reception hall. The entire scheme was tinged with the spirit of Christmas,—trees, wreaths, snow, and the like, also a real honest-to-goodness fire place (courtesy of Mr. Perry). CLASS BANNER Refreshments were served and dancing was enjoyed until eleven o’clock. After this hectic party, Santa was forced to retire back North for another year, but, being a very appreciative fellow, he left in our midst a beautiful banner, 36 by 84, black numerals, 1933-A, on a brilliant scarlet background. What a beauty! SANDWICH SALE Then the depression hit us. Worry over financial matters started to turn our hair gray. Something had to be done. Something was done. We sold sandwiches (all kinds but ham) and the money derived therefrom was enough to keep the wolf away from the door for a little while. CLASS RINGS You can always tell a senior—but you can’t tell him much. For those that could tell us, we weren’t concerned. But we were deeply worried over those that couldn’t tell us. We wanted everybody to know who we were; therefore we bought ourselves rings. Nothing much happened the rest of the term. It was the “quiet be¬ fore the storm.” We were ready to proceed. The call came to advance. Report cards were passed out. The select passed on ahead to 12-A, while the others remained at a standstill. BRIDGE AND WHIST Some people got the wrong idea of our Bridge and Whist, which was conducted May 6, 1932. It wasn’t to make money; we did it to find a challenger to oppose Mr. Culbertson, who seemed to be raising quite a rumpus in the world of Bridge. Incidentally, we did realize quite a few dollars from the venture. Mr. and Mrs. McGeoch and Mr. Wiggin of the faculty were the chaperons. SELLING CANDY The store where William Main works seemed to be in quite a slump. Business was terrible. Bill hit on the idea that our class should sell candy. We’d get the money. Bill’s store would get the business. And Main would keep his job. Quite a system. But did we make money? Politics occupied the centre of attraction. The terms of our officers had expired. We held an election. The ballots were counted. Result— President, Frank Sampson; Vice President, William Main; Secretary, Dorothy Davis; Treasurer, Harold Settles. 12-A The life of seniors proved quite different from that of juniors. As occupants of the centre of attraction, we saw no excuse for complaint, however. Athletics kept our classmates quite busy. Arlene Urann was showing the girls’ basketball team what it was all about; while Frank DePerrio, Isadore Novick, and Frank Sampson were batting things up for Mr. McGeoch and the baseball team. It seems that our class was running things the way it wanted to on the track team with William Main, captain, and James Riley, manager. Harold Settles and Lester Pass were awarded letters for their efforts. SENIOR SCREAMER With the death of the Blue and Gold there was no way for everybody to know exactly what was going on. Abraham Halpern found the solution in the Senior Screamer that he had organized. The staff that was elected consisted of George Kaplan, editor-in-chief, with Gertrude Shenfield and Abraham Halpern as associates; Robert Turner, business manager; and the reporters, Robert Baker, Isa Clisby, Arline Cole, Gordon Davis, and Cecelia Meltzer; typists, Alma Harrison, Mary Notarangeli, and Marjorie Nudd. The staff was ably assisted by Miss Wetmore and Miss Tucker. The paper consisted solely of our own class material, written up in an informal manner. The sheets, about twelve of them in each issue, were mimeo¬ graphed and bound together by clamps. There were just four issues during the term, each copy selling for five cents. SENIOR RECEPTION On the evening of June 3, we tendered a reception to the class of 1932-B. A novel entertainment was presented in the hall. “Hollywood,” a skit written by Gordon Davis, consisted of a “Rajah” act with Abraham Sugarman and Gordon Davis, a dialogue by Harold Settles and Frank Sampson, and the “Sing Sing Sextet,” composed of Arline Cole, Phyllis Doyle, Loraine Berggren, Florence Kevorkian, Ruth Miller, and Pearle Rud- man. William Main as the director, and James Riley as stage hand also took part in this skit. Frank Musker gave a dazzling exhibition of tap dancing. The entertainment was concluded with a one-act play, “Sham.” The actors were Bertha Elmstrom, Gordon Davis, Fred Merrill, and John Boyle. After this, the customary grand march followed in the gym, which was beyond recognition in its out-door scenic effects. After a short period of dancing, refreshments were served. Dancing was resumed until the strains of the “Last Waltz”, which was exactly eleven p. m. 12B With the graduation of the class of 1932-B, Malden High School was left without a senior class. That would never do. A high school should and must have a senior class. Seeing that we were next in line, Mr. Jenkins decided that we would have to take their place. No sooner did we get accustomed to one class than we were pushed on into the next class. But we were good pupils,—we never protested. After Thanksgiving, football letters were awarded to Leo DeMarco, Hyman Goodman, Isadore Novick, and Frank Sampson. Such trivial matters as the year book, graduation pictures, class day, and the senior outing confronted us. These were all met, tackled, and disposed of in the same zealous manner that characterized all of our other undertakings. Now January 27 looms before us. As it is our habit to be different, we are even going so far as to break up old graduation customs. After our class, there will be no more pupils ejected into the cold cruel world during mid-winter. The new c lasses can’t take it. The warm June months for them—no more cold Februaries. (Elass Jrophery Marguerite Perry and Gordon Davis Peg—Why hello, Gordon Davis. (Looks into screen of telephoto) Gordon—Hello, Peggy, how are you? You’re looking fine. Peg—Well, Pm feeling fine. How are you? Gordon—Oh, Pm great. Peg—Where are you calling from? Gordon—Oh, Pm in New York now. Pm taking a transatlantic rocket plane for Europe. Peg—Is that so. I hear you’ve been out West for some time. When did you come East? Gordon—I just arrived yesterday. I came in from Chicago. Peg—Did you take one of those new-fangled rocket planes? Gordon—Yes, I took a plane there. One of the rockets failed to go off when we started, and so we were swerved off our course. We didn’t make New York in three hours but in a little longer than that. Peg—Well, have you heard any gossip or scandal? Gordon—That’s what I’ve called you up for. What have you heard? Peg—Carroll Anderson just came to the front door selling shoe horns, trying to work his way thru a school for barbers. His old friend, George Christou, was with him as a substitute for Carroll when he tired of talking. They told me the school was run by Harley Davis and Grace Graves, who are making a success of it. Gordon—Well, Carroll was one who always had his hair just so. When I was in Hollywood a few weeks ago, I decided to visit the Nertz Movie Studios. To my surprise, I found Harry London, President, and Robert Baker, Vice President (doing everything a Vice President has to do,— which is nothing.) Richard Ferguson and Marty Held are directors, and Marjorie Gardner and Alma Harrison are script girls. Peg—That’s interesting. Did you see any of the stars? Gordon—Oh yes! After a squabble with Pete Gailis, who tended the landing field, I got out of my plane and was admitted. I was immedi¬ ately swept off my feet by a young blonde who was trying the balcony scene of Romeo Juliet; who do you think it was? None other than the modern Greta Garbo,—Gerty Anderson. While I was watching her, her maid, Anna Mundy, came in with some iced tea. 193 3A Peg—Do you remember Ida Benson and Louise Antico? They were recently married in a double wedding, and now even marriage can’t separate them. I see them exchanging gossip over the fence about their domestic difficulties, or why they continue to lose at bridge to their new opponents, George Gliserman and John Boyle. Gordon—When I was in Hollywood, I saw Billy Hardiman hitting tennis balls on one of the courts with Henry Fellman. They’re practicing for the coming Olympics. He’s getting along great. Peg—Yes, I read about it the other day in the “Suffolk Sun.” And by the way, George Kaplan and Harold Daniels are editors of this paper now. But did you see or hear about any more of our classmates in Holly¬ wood? Gordon—Yes, at the same time I saw Gerty, I heard a lot of noise in one of the sets. I decided to investigate. I peeked in a door, and there in the center of the stage stood Dot Dolloff shaking her fist at Frank DePerrio, the cameraman; and behind Dot stood Eileen Benson coach¬ ing her. I didn’t stop to see what the argument was about. Peg—Yes, Dot’s coming right along in the pictures. I was reading the other day in a movie magazine, edited by Greenbaum and Greisdorf, that Constance Fuller was designing gowns for Loraine Berggren, the actress, Ida Santonelli as usual being Constance’s righthand woman. Cora Berry and Rita Wahl have started a beauty parlor for actresses only. Cora must do the massaging and exercising, and Rita the talking. Gordon—Yes, and did you hear about Clara Chase and Ruth Hoffman? Every afternoon they hold a tea and bridge at a new club out in Hollywood, and they’re making quite a success of it. Peg—Yes, Phyllis Doyle, Betty Holmes, and Bertha Elmstrom have done the same thing here, only they have an instructor, Arlene Cole. A complaint was made to the police that a party had been cheated in one of the games and John Holland, the police captain, made a raid with his men, Lieutenant Arnold Anderson and Sergeant Etchings. They were brought before the court—Max Fishelson presiding—were found not guilty, but had to pay $50 fine—Arlene having told Max what she thought of him. However, Harriet Brown, who was the trea¬ surer, said there was no money to pay them, and now they have to raise the money. While they were there, Jimmy Chappell brought up a case against his wife, charging that she threw some biscuits at him that she had baked. Judge Fishelson se ntenced Mrs. Chappell ninety days for assault with a dangerous weapon. Gordon—While I was in Chicago, I went to a cabaret, and who do you think was the orchestra leader? None other than John Cooper trying to imitate Rudy Vallee! John has developed a cute moustache and has been travelling with Eloise Clark, who is a torch singer at the same place. Abe Sugarman and Julius Grant favored with some tap dancing. While I was watching those two dance, I heard a familiar laugh, and, turning around, I saw Aram Haydostian with his fiancee, seated at a table with Abe Halpern. They were devouring sandwiches, and Haydostian had just finished telling the latest story from Gilmore and Jewell’s newest joke book. Aram had just returned from Spain where he has been a Spanish matador, and A1 is now announcing on the television radio. Peg—I was strolling thru Pine Banks yesterday afternoon when suddenly I heard the familiar words, “If thou be true to thyself, thou can be false to no man.” Turning around, I saw none other than Billy Main, the modern Hamlet, pacing to and fro trying to memorize his lines for the opening in Boston. But Billy wasn’t alone in his undertaking. Fred Benson was sitting near a bear cage, eating peanuts, and reciting aloud,—protozoa, porifera, coelenterata, protozoa, etc. On the other side of the cage Marjorie Nudd was trying to attract the monkeys. Rachel Fishman and Catherine Field are often seen in the early morn running around the pond. You see, the girls are Physical Culturists. Gordon—Speaking of sports, Molly Block has established a gymnasium in Providence. Molly decided that she needed an assistant, and so she hired Ruth Green. Irma Bradford, however, who also runs a gymnasium class, believes in midnight horseback riding. Irma, you know, is an ardent follower of Paul Revere, and one can always be sure of seeing her galloping thru the town at midnight. Peg—A salesman came to my house recently and persuaded me to buy one of Molly Block’s new Physical Culture books. His name was Hyman Goodman, and he was working for DeVere, Devine, and Dewey, Inc., Publishers. She believes that an exercise a day will chase de¬ pression away. Gordon—Speaking about people going into business, Leo DeMarco and Silico Colangeli have started a regular first class junk shop on Ferry Street. They are located next door to Dorothy Gardner’s “Tea Shoppe.” Dorothy gives her best friends all that they can drink for a nickel. Gordon Graham is the official tea cup reader, and Annie Goldstein, cashier. Peg—Thomas Driscoll, Joe Gilgun, and Joe Burns are now employed by an undertaking bureau, and business is pretty good for them right now. Incidentally, Tommy told me Gertrude Finn has been the “It” girl in society ever since she won the bathing beauty contest at Revere Beach. • Gordon—Recently I read in the Blotchville News that Helen Daly was given the highest honor in the Hooey Opera Co. Miss Daly, after she sang “Three on a Match,” was presented with a golden candlestick containing a ten cent candle. Peg—Did you read about the elaborate wedding last Saturday night at the Little Church Around the Corner? Well, Claire Barchard was married to a duke. The minister was William Connelly. Immediately following the ceremony the couple were tendered a supper catered by Hammond and Hunt, at the home of Margaret Johnston who, incident¬ ally, runs a home for blind and insane cats. Speaking of caterers, Griffith and Gustafson have become well known for serving roast pork a la mushrooms and potatoes a la butter. Gordon—It seems as though most of our classmates are either married or in business, but we can boast of having two college graduates. Abraham Caswell and Joe Hurwitz received diplomas from Boston University last June. Caswell intends to become a soap box orator and preach on the subject, “The Evolution of the Pig.” Hurwitz, however, decided to remain in B. U. and teach the freshmen a thing or two. Peg—Oh, I’m not so sure about having just two college graduates in our class. Christine Desmond and Iolanda Faiella are teaching history in a local school. Both are opponents of Mussolini. Gordon—Yes, and Dot Cronin and Rebecca Baden are teaching biology. Lately they decided to dissect dogs, and the Women’s Humane Society, under the leadership of Laura Calvin, quickly told the Misses Cronin and Baden what they thought of the whole idea. However, it was brought to the school board, and Josephine Campbell, Ethel Charlton, Alice Cremer, Lena Faller, and Esther Chiet, who represented the organization, were quickly told that their society should not interfere with school work,—but women will be women. Peg—I see where Elsie Gross, Vera Harding, and Edna Henry have joined the Salvation Army. They were always collecting money for some¬ thing or other; but now they are right at home, because they can talk and earn money at the same time. Gordon—Chicago is still bothered by gangsters and they are making great efforts to get rid of them. I saw a shooting the day I was there. Jimmy Riley, well-known Secret-Service man, had been shot, as the po’ice suspected, by a liquor gang. Robert Turner of the Investigation Bureau has been detailed to run down the slayers. Much to my sur¬ prise, I saw some of our old ’33 classmates there, apparently Riley’s policemen friends. I don’t remember all the names, but I do remember seeing Joe Murphy, Bobby Oakes, and Ben Zimmerman, all looking pretty sad. The streets were just packed, and the police had such a hard time to keep the crowds back that they had to call out the Fire Department with none other than our own Bill Spragg as chief boy, leading his men in his bright red chief’s-plane. Peg—I thought Bill was in New York as Fire chief there, but I guess because the Chicago job was a better one, he took that. Say, have you heard the latest about the Barnum-Bailey-Ringling Brothers Circus? I understand that quite a bunch of ’33A graduates are working there. Gordon—Is that so? I hadn’t heard. Have you seen any of them? Peg—Well, when the circus was in town last week, I saw it. Wow! What a surprise! Our own Eleanor Cheek was doing a trapeze and bare- back riding act. She was a hit. Bernice Steeves was there as the World’s Thinnest Woman. She was so thin she looked like a drain¬ pipe with clothes on. They had a lot of attractions in there that interested me. Hymey Oxman (you remember him?) was billed as the World’s Strongest man and boy, could he lift dumbells! Walter Kane was in the same act, as a ventriloquist. As usual, he talked a lot and said nothing. Gordon—It seems to me I do recall that concerning Kane, now that you speak of it. Isn’t there some treatment for such people? Peg—Muriel Wisotsky was just here at my house. She had just had a tooth pulled by Eddie Palmer, her dentist, and she’s been howling around my house. She’s teaching Latin now down in the High School. Dot Davis is a nurse at Eddie’s office and tells the patients how painful it won’t be. He’s doing quite a business on account of that. Speaking of nurses, Marion London is now at the Danvers Asylum, as a nurse. With her as student nurses are Cecelia Hughes, Rose Forgione, and Isa Clisby. Affairs are pretty quiet now, except that they have formed an or¬ ganization for the building of a new high school. Isadore Ludwin (he’s the mayor now) is at the head of it. Paul Purdy, janitor of Malden High School, has protested against the conditions and a committee with Gerty Shenfield, Phyllis MacNeilly, Esther Lintz, and Lillian Sack are attacking the School Committee. They want it built on the new all-glass open-air plan. Remember Abe Steinberg? Well, he’s head of the School Committee, and he’s getting it right now with those four women after him. Gordon—The poor fellow better skip the country rather than suffer. It would be safer for him in prison. At that, he might meet some of his old friends there. It seems that everywhere I go, I meet some of our old class mates. Only the other day I was in Atlantic City, and who should I meet but Bertha Weintraub and Anna Prusak? They were selling lemonade and hot-dogs on the board walk. Izzy Novick is making a living selling balloons, and I saw Bill and Frank Musker in a Dance Marathon. They have as Life-guards, none other than Louie Schultz, John Noble, and Frank Rubinsky. They all fell out of a boat while I was there and nearly got drowned. Peg—Well, that’s the way it is. I went into Joslin’s today to get some ribbon and none other than Mary King waited on me. Many of our class mates are working there,—Nellie Kalson, Celia Krichmar, Har¬ riett Pettingill, Vera Lord, and a lot of others. Vera is selling ankle socks! Joslin’s has grown larger since you were in town. Harry London is manager now, and Evelyn Parry is his secretary. I guess he doesn’t get much work done. The Dowling Building has just had a penthouse put on top of it. Max Spiegal and Forrest Wendell built it, and now George Wilcox paints pictures there. He’s an artist, you know. He drew a picture of Eddie Shivvers (he’s a plumber) and he did such a good job that he has quite a business now. Walter Morton, famous violinist, and John Madden, operatic singer, have been painted in oils. They look handsome! This reminds me that Eli Nannis and Abe Selsky are running a big beauty salon on Pleasant Street. They try to be ritzy and speak with a French accent. Anna Sullivan is the reason the men stay to have their finger nails manicured, and Ivy O’Farrell, Ruth Villaume, and Dot Kerr finger the finger waves. John McElroy is the head barber over there, and Eddie Leonard gives the permanents. Gordon—When I registered at my hotel this morning, I found that Nathan Miller and Dick Knowlton had registered before me. So I went up to meet them. They were glad to see me and told me they had been hunting for a caribou up in Maine. Max Binder was their guide. They’re trying to revive the miniature golf fad, but so far have failed. They told me they met Frank Sampson up at Dartmouth. He’s been up there for thirteen years and is now the Dean. They tried to get me to put some money in their business, but I wouldn’t. They’ve got some help from Harold Taylor (he’s the fellow that sells grease to the channel-swimmers) and from George Shanley. George has been around the world twice on roller skates and has been making money as a side-show attraction. Walking down Broadway later on, I ran into “Let” Pass! He’s salesman for the Amalgamated Rubber Key¬ hole Corporation of America and is doing a great business. He told me that Fred Merrill and Louis Weintraub were running a Turkish bath up in Buffalo and were all steamed up over it. He also told me that Eddie Rouillard is now a scribe for one of the New York papers, and tells all the keyhole and transom secrets—a second edition of Walter Winchell. Peg—Dick Trapp came to my back-door today selling shoe-laces for some poor fund. When I told him all my shoes had straps, he pulled out some buckles. “These are made by your old friends, Lloyd Tupper and Warren McCann,” he said. “They had a fight a couple of months ago, but now they’re all patched up again (in the hospital) and are making these for a living.” I bought some, and he told me that Harold Settles had settled down to business in New York. For the past few months he has been working on his new “Settled Building” which, when completed (if ever) will be one hundred and twenty stories high with a mooring mast, and landing field on the top. Ever- clean windows have been installed, and dustless furniture. I met Alvin Lindgren today. He’s selling insurance for Reynolds and Mor¬ rison and he tried to sell me some—but nix! I had some insurance in Nixon and Boock Mutual, and they’re on the rocks financially. So I’m taking chances with no more small companies. Gordon—I wouldn’t trust them. You take a risk when you do. I heard Florence Kevorkian singing over the radio last night. Pearle Rudman accompanied her on the violin with Shirley Simpkin at the piano. These three are getting along in the radio world. On the Bon Ami Programme over Station WABC in New York, I listened to Dot Kim¬ ball, Ethel Ramsell, and Mary Notarangeli in a dramatic sketch. Helen Mott answered some letters of the lovelorn, and Aphrodite Nichols gave a talk on etiquette, dwelling on the idea that Harvard haircuts— or whiffles—were not for the best of society. It was interesting to hear our former classmates. I heard in the news flashes that Esther Wilson, Arlene Urann, Bessie Seigal, and Olive Leighton were partici¬ pating in the Horse Show in Boston. Peg—With all these airplanes whizzing around, I wouldn’t mind going back to horses. Say, have you heard about Lillian Katz and Eleanor Kellstrom? They wrote a book on “Life Among the Andes” and had it published. They got all their material from encyclopedias and from their friends Gene Shapiro and Ben Santer, who have really been travelling there. I guess the book is a success. It was published by Morrisey and McCollette. Anna Maher, present librarian here, told me about it. I don’t know but that I’ll have to stop talking pretty soon. I’m expecting the iceman—LeRoy Miller. Stop me if I’m repeating, but did I tell you that Ruth Miller and Cecelia Meltzer have opened a dress shop down in the square? They have Rachel Rubenstein, Esther MacDonald, Pearl Sack, Elena Santonelli, and Florence Drake working for them. Oh! There’s the iceman. Gordon—Well, I must be going along myself. I’ll call you up again as soon as I get back from the continent. Peg—Well, then, have a good trip. Gordon—Good-bye. Peg—Good-bye. CAUGHT UNAWARES n (hit 6 $ °i ' r , e 0 w{rf A r Cdu %r {$ ■ � ?

Winners Take All We all like races, don’t we? Well, let’s have some fun. Anyone in the Class of ’33A is eligible. As prizes, the win¬ ners will have their names printed in the Maldonian of ’33A. O.K. ? Is everybody ready ? Let’s go! Best Dressed Boy—Fred Merrill comes tearing in with Richard Trapp a short distance behind. Best Dressed Girl—Gertrude Anderson and Gertrude Shenfield prove to be good runners, with Gertrude Anderson a little better. Most Intelligent Girl—Cecelia Meltzer reaches the goal first with Gertrude Shenfield a close second. Most Intelligent Boy—Does Joseph Hurwitz look the athletic type? Well, he certainly can run. He outdistances Robert Turner. Most Popular Girl—Dorothy Davis carries off these honors and Marguerite Perry helps her share them. Most Popular Boy—Who else but our track man, Billy Main, could win this? He is followed by Frank Sampson close at his heels. Class Flapper—Good work girls! Dorothy Dolloff and Marguerite Perry hit the mark at the same time. Heartbreaker—Can it be possible that our little James Riley has beaten Fred Merrill? Looks certainly are deceiving. Girl Who Did Most For The School—Gertrude Shenfield and Cecelia Melt¬ zer are at it again, but this time Gertrude is the swifter-footed. Boy Who Did Most For The School—One ought to be convinced by now that Billy Main can run. George Kaplan, not a track man, must have done good work to come in just behind. Best Looking Girl—Smile pretty for a picture, Dorothy Davis. It’s cus¬ tomary to publish pictures of the great races. You’ll have to let Louise Antico get in the picture also. Best Looking Boy—Frank Sampson secures first place. Fred Merrill’s strength must have decreased at this point of the race. After all he’s been in since the start. Best Boy Athlete—Here’s where the football man, Frank Sampson, beats the track man, Billy Main, by a thin margin. Best Girl Athlete—Arlene Urann surely is running. Ruth Miller comes tearing down the field after her. Class Wit—Gordon Davis has saved his strength for the end of the race. George Kaplan also has a bit left. Well, enough is enough! The participants are all fagged out! We hope you’ve enjoyed the race. A Motor Trip One spring day, Bertha, Phil MacNeilly, and I were driving up to LONDON, MAINe, in my BROWN roadster to look at summer HOLMES. On our way up, we happened to PASS a FISHMAN’s cottage near the watery GRAVES of many ships which have gone down, and over which were flying numerous SEIGALS. We went by a BAKER’s on the road, and someone from the rumble seat yelled, “TURNER around, and let’s get some OATES cookies and GRAHAM crackers.” As we went further up, we came to PERRYville, and stopped to visit a MILLER whom we knew. Although it was spring, his COLE-bin was FULLER than ever. Across the street was a beautiful GREEN FIELD which was owned by a prominent SUGARMAN from the South who always carried a KANE. We almost ran over a TRAPP for MUSKERats which some hunter had carelessly left on the road. Finally, we arrived at LONDON, and looked at the first cottage. A GARDNER was working outside who said he was BENSON; he certainly was a JEWELL of a GARDNER. Upon entering the house, Bertha saw an old doll on the table and said, “Take that DOLLOFF there immediately. It looks horrid.” After looking over the house, we pro¬ nounced it simply DEVINE, and decided to rent it. A lunch consisting mainly of CAMPBELL’s soup was consumed, and we started back for Malden, thoroughly convinced that the trip was most enjoyable, even though we did have to get up early the next morning to attend classes at dear old M.H.S. Memories Of Malden High M is for Miss Wetmore, as an adviser she’s great, A is for assembly hall, which is quite out of date. L is for library, where Miss Child tends the books, D is for dressing rooms, with oh so few hooks! E is for entrance, with clock up above, N is for no school, the whistle we love. H is for homework, which is such a bore, I is for ink, we always need more. G is for gym, where our parties are held, H is for hallways, which aren’t so “swell.” S is for Seniors, that’s us, you know, C is for college, where some hope to go. H is for honor roll, where we always shine, 0 is for outing, where we have a great time. O is for office, with Miss Gerke’s winning ways, L is for lunchroom, which is great on rainy days. $ « Kap)a 7 )’ Crdshm ,q r Trarjcc. throuQH The Jkj lyhV.

Class Day The Class of 1933-A made their farewell appearance before the school on the 27th of January in an interesting and unusual form of entertain¬ ment. The curtain rose showing the banquet scene from the class outing. Spirits were high and jokes were many until Frank Sampson, the toast¬ master, rapped for order. George Kaplan brought back many memories when he read his Class History. Marguerite Perry and Gordon Davis then foretold our future and Harold Settles drew many a laugh and chuckle with his Oration. The scenes were changed and the school was presented one of the most unusual plays ever given in the High School. The play, “Standish Pride”, had a cast of dogs, with pupils in the class doing their best to imitate the canine species. Phyllis MacNeilly, as Diana, pleased as the charming sweetheart of Fred Merrill, who was Rip, while Ben Zimmer¬ man played the part of the old man, Guardy, to perfection. It was inter¬ esting because of the uniqueness of the idea and the novelty of the scenery. The scenery was built as it appeared in the eyes of the dogs, with an extra- large fence, a huge dog-house, and a dish enormous in size. It was a clever play, cleverly put on, and cleverly enacted, and the audience enjoyed it to the utmost. Honor Parts The necessity for having our year book published so early this year means the elimination of one of the most important parts of all year books, the graduation speeches. Therefore, it seems only fitting to announce the honor parts and give the subjects of the speeches. The parts of salutatorian and valedictorian are awarded to the boy and girl of the class with the highest scholastic standing. The part of orator is likewise given to a pupil of high standing; but that pupil must also have done some service for the school. This year the much coveted honors were awarded to Robert Turner, salutatorian; Cecelia Meltzer, valedictorian; and William Main, orator. The subjects of the speeches were as follows: For Robert Turner’s salutatory, “Peace or War in an Industrial Age”; for Cecelia Meltzer’s valedictory, “The Golden Calf”; and for William Main’s oration, “Dis¬ armament, an Economic Measure”. NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY The highest honor that a student of the Malden High School is able to attain is membership in the John W. Hutchins Chapter of the National Honor Society. Those chosen to be members of this select group must have a scholarship ranking in the first quarter of the class and must stand high in leadership and character. A committee composed of members of the faculty makes the choice from those eligible in scholarship. Although our class is not very large, we have the honor of having the most members in the society since it was founded,—twenty one. Those who were chosen for this honor are Robert Baker, Loraine Berggren, Harriet Brown, Isa Clisby, Gordon Davis, Phyllis Doyle, Bertha Elmstrom, Constance Fuller, Dorothy Gardner, Abraham Halpern, Elizabeth Holmes, Florence Kevorkian, Marion London, William Main, Cecelia Meltzer, Ruth Miller, Frank Musker, Pearle Rudman, Gertrude Shenfield, Robert Turner, and Arlene Urann. We hope that these pupils may continue their success in later life. ENGLISH CLUB President — William Main ’33-A Vice-President— Mildred Goodman ’33-B Secretary — George Laming ’33-B Treasurer — Bernard Silverstein ’33-B Adviser —Miss Reynolds For the past three years the English Club has enjoyed great success. The programs at the meetings have been exceptionally interesting with outside speakers being procured from time to time. Although many members are lost at graduation yearly, the gaps have been filled promptly by others desirous of aiding in the success of the club. Every year some sort of competitive project is undertaken by the club, such as an essay or a one-act play contest. Last year, however, the club ran an Inter-Club Play contest which proved very popular. In 1930 the club presented the “Bourgeois Gentilhomme”, an excep¬ tionally fine play which turned out very successfully. In 1931 “The Inti¬ mate Strangers” was presented as the annual play, which was very well received. Last year as a change three one-act plays were given, entitled “The Boor”, “The Other Woman”, and “His First Dress Suit”. The last of these so pleased the audience that it was repeated at a school assembly. The English Club has also enjoyed many parties, and last year an afternoon and evening at Camp Manning provided a jolly outing for the entire club. Many more such occasions are anticipated. This year the club is presenting one of the best modern plays of the day, “The Youngest”, which may truly be looked forward to with great expectation. COG President —Abraham Halpern ’33-A Vice President —William Main ’33-A Secretary —Sumner Kalin ’34 Treasurer —Leo Kakn ’34 Adviser — Miss Slattery Seven years abounding in activities and achievements marked the history of Cog or what is constitutionally known as Cognosce.ndi Causa Society, when we as a class became affiliated with the High School. The year of our entrance, 1930, is remembered by a victory over Melrose in a debate, the prize speaking contest in which Nathan Miller took part, and another victory over Melrose in a radio debate. In 1931 Cog defeated the Webster Debating Society of Somerville High over the radio; held its prize speaking contest; held its annual banquet; provided Daniel L. Marsh, President of B.U., as the speaker of the Memorial Day assembly; defeated Winthrop High School, then debating champions of the state, at a benefit unemployment debate at the High School with Nathan Miller and Abraham Halpern members of the team. In 1932 a return debate with Winthrop, an Open House Night, and the Eighth Annual Cog Prize Speaking Contest were held, with William Main, chairman of the latter two. Now Cog is anticipating a debate with Boston Latin, its tenth annual banquet to be held Christmas week, and its second Open House Night in January. MALDEN HIGH SCHOOL LITERARY SOCIETY President — Kenneth Mason ’33-B Vice-President — Manson McKown ’33-B Secretary — William Dinneen ’33-B Treasurer — Francis Rossiter ’33-B Adviser — Mr. Matthews During the past three years, the Malden High School Literary Society has been on the “Comeback trail”. At the Annual Lit Banquet on Novem¬ ber 26, 1930, led by Mr. Frank A. Bayrd and other able Alumni, definite constructive plans were formed for the reorganization of Lit, which at that time consisted of only two active members. From that time up to the present, members of the society and their adviser have worked to save “the oldest Literary Society in the Public Schools of America” (founded in 1872) from such an untimely death. In 1931 the society revived the traditional custom of having a joint meeting with Usona. The play, “The Ghost Story”, by Booth Tarkington, was presented at that time. The Banquet was held in the High School Gym, with Mr. Paul M. Foss as Toastmaster. There were many members present. Many interesting speeches and debates have been major parts of “Lit’s” work. In 1932 the society produced the play “April Fools” for the English Club Play Contest, and although we didn’t win the prize, we made a fine showing. The Sixtieth Annual Banquet this year is to be held at the Kernwood Cafe on November 23, at which a large gathering is expected, both alumni and active members. At the present moment every energy is bent toward the coming Banquet and the raising of the Malden High School Literary Society to its former position. GREENROOM DRAMATIC SOCIETY President— John Mehos ’33-B Vice-President — Gilbert Kotzen ’33-B Secretary — Ella Klaiman ’33-B Treasurer — Bernard Silverstein ’33-B Adviser — Mr. Hall The Greenroom Dramatic Society completed a very successful season last June, and there is every indication of another active year. Among its other activities, the Society presented Jerome K. Jerome’s well-known play, “Fennel”, before a school assembly. The cast included Harold Baker, Rosalie Harrison, Bernard Silverstein and Francis Rossiter. First prize, a silver loving cup, was awarded the Society in the English Club Inter-Play Contest. The prize-winning play was A. A. Milne’s “The Boy Came Come”, and the cast was as follows: John Mehos, Florence Anguish, Francis Rossiter, Barbara Savage, and Ella Klaiman. The Society has held two costume parties, and giving this type of party is to become an annual custom. November 4, the Society presented its first play to the general public. It was a comedy of American Life, “Kempy”, by J. C. Nugent and Elliot Nugent. The cast comprised the following: John Mehos, Florence An¬ guish, Francis Rossiter, Phyllis Roughsedge, Leo Kahn, Roslie Harrison, Beatrice Anteen, and Richard Berry. It was coached by Miss Laura Pearl, popular member of the faculty. USONA President — Charlotte Salmen ’33-B Vice-President — Phyllis Doyle ’33-A Secretary — Florence Coombs ’33-B Treasurer — Beatrice Crooker ’33-B Adviser —Miss Watkins Usona, Girls’ Honor Society of Malden High School, is now in its fifty-ninth administration. During the past three years it has been one of the most active societies in the school. An assembly was conducted by the society annually, and another special feature was the annual banquet. A joint meeting with Lit has been held every administration, and a successful Lit-Usona dance was held in the gym. In 1931 the honorary members entertained the members of Usona by a trip to Swampscott, where refreshments were enjoyed at Blaisdell’s. Last year we were the guests of the honorary members at a tea in the library. At the meetings the girls have been actively engaged in the intel¬ lectual pursuits for which the society was organized. BIOLOGY CLUB President— George Kaplan ’33-A Vice-President —Edward Palmer ’33-A Secretary —Marguerite Perry ’33-A Treasurer— Harold Daniels ’33-A Adviser —Mr. True The Biology Club, or Sigma Bios, started with a nucleus of thirty-five members in October, 1931. In June, 1932, it boasted of having the largest membership of any club in Malden High School, with an enrollment of one hundred and eight active members. The Sigma Bios accomplished much in furthering our education along biological lines. We had several interesting talks by outside speakers. Immediately after our short educational lectures there was always a sur¬ prise awaiting us in room 308. It was either delicious sandwiches and hot chocolate, or dainty cakes and cookies with punch. No wonder we had such a large club! The Sigma Bios, many of whose members are prominent in other social and athletic activities of the school, without a doubt, can boast of having the most active and talented group of students that ever congregated under the roof of our venerable institution. No wonder our Minstrel Show in April was a success! Remember the four comedians; where can you beat them? The audience continued laughing from the time they entered until the curtain was drawn. As a final social affair, the Biology Club ran a dance in May for the amusement of its members, and refreshments were served without charge. This semester we hope to make the Biology Club more successful than ever. CAM President —Ethel Karelitz ' 33-B Vice-President— Doris Shannan ’33-B Secretary —Irma Skinner ’33-B Treasurer —Charlotte Shapiro ’33-B Adviser —Mr. Marsh The “Cam” society was organized in 1931 for the purpose of debating and of studying English literature. The society presented a graduation gift in February to Fannie Miller, and another one in June to Ann Goldfarb for their excellence in stenog¬ raphy. Among our different speakers for the past two years have been Mr. Hall, Mr. Bartlett, Mr. Jenkins, Mr. Pasanen, Miss Dyer, and Miss Abbott. A farewell party was held at the end of last year at the High School Hall at which Mr. Wilson and Mr. Hoffman spoke. Refreshments and games were then enjoyed by all in the school Gym. The honorary members include Miss Dyer, Miss Abbott, Miss Gerke, and Mr. Hoffman. “Cam” now has a membership of thirty-four. Our worthy adviser, Mr. Marsh, is planning to accomplish much this year for the society. MUSIC APPRECIATION CLUB President— Louis Bluestein ’33-B Vice-President — Oscar Baum ’33-B Secretary — Pearle Rudman ’33-A Treasurer—H arold Daniels ’33-A Adviser — Miss Perkins The Music Appreciation Club was formed for the purpose of teaching the fundamentals of music from the time of its origin to the present day, and to enable those interested to appreciate and understand the higher forms of music. The Music Appreciation Club was first organized about one year ago as a select group of ten. Since then a large increase in membership has caused the original club to be divided into two sections: the Music Ap¬ preciation Class, consisting of all original members and all new members, and the Music Appreciation Club , consisting of the original members and those new members who wish to belong. The Music Appreciation Class under the direction of Miss Harriet Perkins has undertaken a course of interesting and instructive lectures by Miss Perkins, and a course of musical concerts by Walter Damrosch. The Music Appreciation Club under the advisership of Mr. Walter Pasanen directs the social department of the combined clubs. The club has planned a schedule of their social activities for the year. Lectures and musical entertainments for the club and for the entire school have been planned. THE MACDOWELL CLUB President —Florence Kevorkian ’33-A Vice-President —Ruth Miller ’33-A Secretary —Eleanor Hilliard ’34 Treasurer —Ella Klaiman ’33-B Adviser — Miss Perkins The Macdowell Girls’ Glee Club was first formed in 1930, under the leadership of Miss Perkins. It was named after one of America’s great composers, Edward Macdowell. Despite the many sororities, and the athletic and literary activities, about sixty-five girls have found time to assemble once a week, on Wed¬ nesday, to learn and enjoy good music. At the beginning of this semester Marguerite Hayes and Rosalie Harrison were chosen librarians, Pearle Rudman and Genevieve Bassett, Publicity Managers, and Florence Anguish, Chairman of Bulletin Com¬ mittee. The club plans to give an entertainment every week. Also, those girls who have exceptionally fine voices will have an opporteunity to do solo work. We hope to make this one of the most prominent clubs of Malden High School. SARGENT ART CLUB President — Hyman Klebanow ’34 Vice-President — Ida Santonelli ’33-A Secretary and Treasurer— Virginia Martin ’34 Press Agent— Olive King ’33-A Adviser — Miss Lyon The Sargent Art Club gives the pupils who do not take drawing a chance to draw. In the line of art appreciation, the club plans to visit the Copley Guild and the Boston Art Club Galleries, the Boston Public Library, Mrs. Jack Gardner’s Palace, Harvard Museum and such schools as Vesper George, Swain, Scott Carbee, etc. Classes in oils, charcoals, pastels, clay modeling, metal, leather, and basketry work are planned. The club is making jig saw puzzles and will make some Christmas cards to sell. The club hopes to give a reward to the pupil who does the most in the line of art. CLASS OF 1933-B President — James Norton Vice-President — Betty Brown Secretary— Mildred Powell Treasurer — John Mehos Adviser — Miss Moore At the close of the Sophomore year, the Class of 1933-B chose its officers and became an active organization. Under the excellent super¬ vision of Miss Helen Moore, our class adviser, the class set to work planning its first class party, and with Miss Moore, Miss Thorpe, Miss O’Brien, and Mr. Larson supervising the activities, the affair was a great success. The entertainment was furnished by several talented members of the class. During our Junior year, we gave our first play, “Skidding”. We owe much of the success of the play to Miss Pearl, our coach. This class also glories in its athletes: notably Captain A1 Kerwin, Sam Pashoian, and Fred Hanifan, our football stars; Louise Stokes, who had the honor of being sent to California for the Olympics this year; and Betty Brown, varsity hockey player, who is also a member of the Boston Hockey Team. The Class of 1933-B wishes the members of the Graduating Class a happy ending to their high school careers, and success in their future work. CLASS OF 1934 President — THOMAS REID Vice-President— Helen Ramsdell Secretary— Genevieve Bassett Treasurer — Walter Callahan Adviser —Miss Heald The Class of 1934 is by no means asleep. Our class, the earliest to organize and elect its officers in the history of the school, ran three short “Opportunity Shows” last year. Class eleven has an Executive Committee of seventeen members. A ring committee, with Helen Ramsdell as chairman, was appointed, and the rings that were chosen are now being shown to the students of Class eleven so that they may vote on the ring they want. Another busy committee is the Class Party Committee which consists of Norman Bayes, chairman, and four assistants. The party is to be held November 18 at the Beebe Junior High School. Excellent plans are being made for the good time of all. A play, “Station YYYY”, by Booth Tarkington will be presented with the following cast: Mother, Rose Caffarella; Anita, Helen Richardson; Caroline, Dorothy Blesofsky; Bro¬ ther, Daniel Hirsh; Roger, Edward Simons; Father, Howard Carroll; Chauffeur, Jacob Gordon. As a means of making money, Class eleven is to sell Christmas Cards to the students and the faculty. The committee in charge of this scheme is Howard Carroll and Samuel Winerman. ABA IJ! THE BAND Director —Chester E. Whiting Faculty Manager —Carl E. Taylor Student Leader— James Chappell Drum Major —Leonard Carroll The band is recognized not only as the favorite organization of the school but also of the city, which often calls upon it to render its services. The organization has gained most of its popularity at the football games. This year the band of fifty-five musicians introduced several novelties in music and also in marching formation. Something new to this section of the country was presented when a section of five baton twirlers was placed at the head of t he band when on parade. In addition to the football games, the unit has performed at the Arm¬ istice Day parades and Memorial Day parades, Christmas Celebrations, polo games at the Boston Arena, the Y.M.C.A. Wrestling matches, and the Annual Malden Day. The band showed its ability in concert work when it assisted at the concert given by the instrumental music organizations of the public schools. So successful were these concerts that they were three times repeated, and an annual feature will be made of the event. Through the January graduation, the band loses several of its best performers in James Chappell, Harold Daniels, Harry London, Max Spiegal, George Christou, Max Fishelson, Benjamin Zimmerman, Abraham Sugar- man, and Frederick Merrill. J FOOTBALL Coach —Warren McGuire Assistant Coach —Gerald Mahoney Captain —Albert Kerwin Manager —Kenneth Mason Assistant Manager —Roy Finn Although hindered by the loss of five of its veterans, the Malden High Football team under head coach Warren McGuirk, and Captain A1 Kerwin, completed a successful season this year, losing only to Haverhill and Brockton. One of the outstanding games of the season was the annual tussle with Everett, whom the home team finally overwhelmed by the score of 6-0. The season was marked by the spectacular running and line-plunging of Fred Hanifan and the flashy backfield work of Captain “Al” Kerwin, Sam Pashoian, and Joe Kelly. Wilbur Stanton and Victor DeRubeis were the outstanding linemen. Three members of the team were selected for the Post All-Scholastic team. They were Fred Hanifan, Wilbur Stanton, and Victor DeRubeis. Those who received letters last season are Captain Al Kerwin, Fred Hanifan, Wilbur Stanton, Sam Pashoian, Joe Kelly, Vincent Cohee, Walter Callahan, Carl Blesofsky, Leo DeMarco, Thomas Buckley, Sidney Goldman, Ralph Worth, Leo Logue, Frank Sampson, Thomas Reid, and Richard Harrison. Next year an equally successful season is anticipated, and with Cap¬ tain-elect Wilbur Stanton at the helm, Coach McGuirk expects the team to go through the season undefeated. TRACK Coach —Henry Batchelder Cap tom—W ilfred Leet Manager — James Riley Assistant Manager —Roy Finn The indoor track season has been in progress for several weeks, and Coach Batchelder has had his charges working out at the armory in prepa¬ ration for the opening meet with Lynn Classical. With the return of eight veterans, and with the promising material which has come up from the junior highs, a successful season is anticipated. The veterans are Captain Wilfred Leet, Eric Noseworthy, Robert Lowery, A1 Kerwin, Wilbur Stan¬ ton, Ira Jivelekian, Sidney Goldman, and Samuel Pashoian. Bill Main, Harold Settles, and Lester Pass, high scoring veterans of last season, will be lost to the team after the midyear graduation. Last year the team had a successful season and was defeated by Medford only. The relay team distinguished itself by winning third place in the relay races at the state meet. The team consisted of A1 Kerwin, Eric Noseworthy, Robert Lowery, and Harold Settles. Other high spots of the season were the fine showings made by Bill Main in the half-mile, and by Wilfred Leet in the quarter-mile; the broad-jumping of Jimmie Norton and Ira Jivilekian; the high-jumping of Robert Lowery, A1 Kerwin, and Jimmie Norton; and the fine work of Wilbur Stanton and Sam Pashoian in the shot-put. BASEBALL Coach —Charles McGeoch Captain —Harold Weiner Manager —Carl Singer Assistant Manager —Kenneth Mason Last year, Coach Charles McGeoch produced one of the best diamond teams to represent the Blue and Gold in several seasons. The team went through a hard schedule in top notch fashion, losing only a few games by close scores. The season was marked by the snappy playing of an invul¬ nerable infield combination featuring A1 Kerwin, Eric Noseworthy, Harold Weiner, and Walter Callahan. The outfield produced many spectacular catches by Fred Hanifan, John Mulligan, and Joe Kelly. On the pitching staff, Norman Blake, Robert Farley, Isadore Novick, and Vernon Kreuger performed notably, while Carl Blesofsky, Thomas Reid, and George Hart¬ nett took care of the home plate. Those who received letters are Captain Harold Weiner, Eric Noseworthy, Albert Kerwin, Fred Hanifan, Walter Callahan, Joseph Kelly, John Mulligan, Norman Blake, Isadore Novick, Frank DePerrio, Frank Sampson, Robert Farley, Vernon Kreuger, Robert Weir, Max Cooperstein, John Ryan, George Gowell, Elton Irving, Charles Irvine, Carl Blesofsky, George Hartnett, Thomas Reid, Max Belinsky, and Earl Campbell. Although six of last season’s veterans will be lost to the team by graduation, prospects for the coming season look bright, and with Captain- elect Freddie Hanifan at the helm, coach McGeoch expects to produce an unusually strong nine. Coach— Robert Blair Captain —Leonard Shafer Manager —Walter Sostek Assistant Manager —Harold Thurston The Malden High Basketball team, directed by Coach Bob Blair, has been getting under way in anticipation of a successful season. The squad has been practicing at the armory during the last four weeks preparing for the opening game with Wakefield. This year, unfortunately, the team is faced with the loss of its captain, Jimmie Norton, who was forced to resign on account of outside activities. This loss will be keenly felt. Leonard Shafer was elected to fill the vacancy, and, judging from his work last season, he is capable of holding down the job. The returning lettermen are Captain Leonard Shafer, Ralph Worth, Gordon Spence, Robert Weir, Thomas Reid, Carl Singer, and Henry Mei- dell. Last year the team went through a hard schedule and won only five out of thirteen games. This year, however, Coach Blair expects his charges to keep the slate clean. BASKETBALL f RIFLE CLUB Coach —Carl E. Taylor Captain— Richard Wolfson With a large number of new members coming up from the Sophomore class, the Malden High Rifle Club started off the season with a record- breaking membership of sixty-five. Last year the club had a very success¬ ful season, copping first place in division “C” and carrying off the second honors in the Expert Division. The team also finished fourth in the American Legion Service and Civilian League, which was a fine showing considering the fast competition in this league. This season a great number of the younger and inexperienced mem¬ bers have been shooting the regular qualification course, and from these Coach Carl E. Taylor is building up his future teams. This fall the club held its third annual Thanksgiving Turkey Shoot. As a result of these events, greater interest has been stimulated, and the club has been growing larger each year. GIRLS’ HOCKEY Coach —Muriel Johnson Jansky Captain —Betty Brown Manager — Phyllis Thompson In our first year in Malden High School, we had no candidates from our class on the hockey team, but the following year Arlene llrann played goalie on the first team. The team played Marblehead, Swampscott, Wil¬ mington, Arlington, and Melrose. That year the team won three games, lost three games, and tied three games. The last year we had three representatives on the hockey team: Pearle Rudman playing goalie, Ruth Miller playing fullback, and Arlene Urann playing halfback. This season was not one that would be called successful as we lost all our games, yet we put up a good fight. The other members of this team were Betty Brown, captain, from the class of 1933-B, Eleanor Buchanan, Marguerite Lewis, Teddy Rinaldi, Phyllis Thompson, Evelyn Tarbox, and Bessie Norman from the class of 1934. The class of 1935 had two representatives: Mary McCleary and Marguerite Lupien. Pearle Rudman made the All-Boston Team by making the longest drive out of a field of nearly fifty girls. Betty Brown also made the All- Boston Team, the second year in succession, by being second in the final tryouts.

Salutatory Joseph Priestley: the Forerunner John A. Mehos If we were to look over the annals of the world’s history, we should find that the year 1933 is unusual in being the anniversary year of several illustrious persons. Brahms, the well-known com¬ poser of music, was born in the year 1833; the same year also saw the death of Kean, the great tragic actor of England, and the birth of Booth, our Amer¬ ican actor of equal renown; one hundred years earlier James Oglethorpe, in his humanitarian zeal, established a refuge for debtors and other unfor¬ tunates, in what is now the State of Georgia; and Queen Elizabeth, the eminent queen of England, was born in 1533, exactly 400 years ago. Tonight I intend to pay tribute to a man who, through his original dis¬ coveries in the field of science, contributed much to the enfranchisement of the mind. Years ago, men were laughed at, and even persecuted, for their origin¬ ality and freedom of thought. Nowadays, however, we are inclined to tolerate the original theories that are advanced; for we have learned from past experience that the pioneers in the field of science deserve our lasting gratitude. With much courage and persistence, they broke down the bar¬ riers of prejudice and ignorance that retarded the scientific progress of the world. Such a pioneer was the Rev. Joseph Priestley of England. This scientist, whose discovery of oxygen was an important milestone in the history of chemistry, was born in the year 1733. As the boy grew older, one could perceive that he was an original thinker. This native character¬ istic was fostered by his early environment. At the age of seven he was sent to the home of his aunt. There little Joseph listened intently to the discussions that were held by the dissenting and liberal preachers of the time. Later he attended Daventry Theological Academy. At this school questions were always asked, opinions, no matter how radical, offered, and discussions encouraged. Young Priestley, upon leaving school, entered the ministry. He began preaching to a small dissenting congregation at Needham Market. This was the first of a series of such pastorates, but Priestley was never a very successful preacher on account of an impediment in his speech. Hence he turned to teaching, and gradually became more and more interested in chemical experiments, especially those upon gases. Thus began the development of his scientific experimentation. With what little money he had, he purchased the necessary apparatus, and experimented with various gases. But the scientific working of his mind was not con¬ fined to these experiments alone; evidence of it could be found in his preach¬ ing. When he was confronted with a religious theory, he immediately set about to prove it to his own satisfaction. But his tests were influenced by his scientific methods; he did not realize that scientific reasoning and re¬ ligious reasoning are fundamentally different. Hence, when he failed to prove these theories to his own satisfaction, he was puzzled. But not so in science; for in that field, he told himself, he had something definite to work on, facts to use for a groundwork. That is just what his scientific mind needed. Up to the year 1766 Priestley had browsed about in his chemical exper¬ iments with no results. But in that year an important event took place that encouraged the budding scientist, he met the noted Benjamin Franklin. Now Franklin, as you all know, was somewhat of a scientist himself. He recognized great talents in Priestley, and gave him good advice. The result was that Priestley realized that he could do more in the field of science than he had previously thought. Within a year after his meeting with Franklin, Priestley wrote and published a history of electricity. In marked contrast to the treatment that Galileo received more than 300 years before, when he published his new theories of astronomy, Priestley’s theories were favor¬ ably received. He was made a fellow of the Royal Society, and a Doctor of Laws of Edinburgh University. Following these honors, Priestley went on to make discoveries that were of great value to the scientific world. Chemistry at this point was at a standstill, and had been for many years. It was hampered by Stahl’s erroneous theory of phlogiston. Stahl thought that when a substance burned, it gave off something, which he called phlogiston; and when the flame died out, it was because the air had absorbed all the phlogiston it could hold. For seventy-five years this theory was upheld by arguments that were seemingly sound, though today they would appear somewhat absurd. For a long time Priestley had been interested in this theory. Now he decided to take it up more seriously, and attempt to prove it by the man¬ ipulation of gases. Throughout his experiments Priestley adhered unswerv¬ ingly to the theory; but, strange to relate, the very discoveries that he brought forward as the strongest proofs of the soundness of the Phlogistic theory, helped to destroy the doctrine. Priestley’s first contribution to the new science was a piece of appar¬ atus called the pneumatic trough, by which one could isolate pure gas. He isolated a large amount of one kind of pure gas, carbon dioxide, and, in the course of his experiments, he noticed that it gave “a pleasant acidulous taste” to water. Thus was made possible for the world the manufacture of soda water. It was not long before two soda fountains were set up on an English ship; for it was thought that this water could cure scurvy. So if an Englishman should at some time show contempt for our soda foun¬ tains, remind him that the first ones were set up in the English Navy. It is Priestley, therefore, that we should thank as we quench our thirst at the soda fountain. It might also interest you to know that it was Priestley that gave to what every schoolboy knows as an eraser, the name of rubber. For, one day, one of the bouncing rubber balls, that had just been made, found its way into Priestley’s laboratory. When he discovered that it would erase pencil marks, he promptly named it rubber. I merely cite soda water and the naming of rubber as contributions of Priestley to the every¬ day life of man. But to return to his chemical experiments. He was next attracted by hydrogen, and, after experimenting with this for some time, he suddenly discovered oxygen. He did not recognize this as an element of air, how¬ ever, but maintained that it was air deprived of its phyogiston. Then in another experiment, he accidently and unconsciously formed water by compounding its constituent gases. He also noticed that vegetables grew well in carbon dioxide, and that this gas would support a flame after the plant had grown in it. In each of his discoveries he was within reach of nearly every fundamental principle of chemistry; yet he was dominated by the theory of the past, and hence could not recognize the value of his own discoveries and develop them. The value of oxygen to science cannot be overestimated. Oxygen con¬ cerns nearly everything in chemistry, and even in man’s life. It is an im¬ portant element of water, and an essential factor in combustion, calcination, and the composition of acids. We owe to it all heat, both artificial heat and the natural warmth of the body. The energy of animals and the growth of plants is affected by it. In a word, physics, chemistry, and physiology, both animal and vegetable, have scarely a phenomenon that can be entirely explained without considering this element that Priestley discovered. This is only a brief sketch of Priestley’s discoveries and their value to mankind. Yet you can clearly see how this man’s discoveries opened the way in the scientific world to the final rejection of a worn out doctrine, the phlogiston theory, and prepared the way for more and gr eater dis¬ coveries in the field of science. The modern world owes a great debt to him and we are proud to pay this tribute, weak and inadequate as it is, to Joseph Priestley, the pioneer of modern science. (Bratton The Glory of England Francis S. Rossiter This is a year of unusual significance to every nation in the world, a year that should awaken a feeling of pleasure and gratitude throughout the universe; for it is one hundred years ago that England, our powerful, and we may now say friendly neighbor across the Atlantic, recognized the mon¬ strous injustice of subjugating a fellow being in the bonds of servitude, nay, more, effected its complete abolition throughout her vast empire. I speak with the pleasure that every fair-minded person must feel when he sees a wrong righted; I speak with the gratitude of a citizen of a nation that now prides itself on the fact that it, too, saw the same light, and through the Emancipation Proclamation of its wise leader, Abraham Lincoln, dealt the inhuman institution its death blow. It is only fitting then, that we should pay tribute to England on this, the anniversary of her abolition of slavery, for she was the first to light the torch of free¬ dom for the slaves, the beacon that guided all the European nations and finally our own nation into the path of justice. It is the custom on anniver¬ saries to review briefly the history of the person or cause for which the celebration is proclaimed. It is my intention, therefore, to introduce to you the salient points in the history of slavery in England, a subject that should interest all of us, inasmuch as it was so closely interwoven with our early slave history, which, we must admit to our shame, persisted for almost forty years after England had adopted her reform measures. England first entered into the African slave-trade through the adven¬ tures of Captain John Hawkins about 1562. Heretofore Britain’s dealings with Africa had been on a strictly commercial basis, involving the obtaining of gold, spices, and perfumes. This Captain Hawkins, and all other traders who came after him, was accustomed to entice the African negroes aboard his vessel by gifts, and then to kidnap them. If he failed in this, he would incite native chieftans to war, with the purpose of buying their war captives. These slaves were then borne to the British possessions in the Western Hemisphere, Barbados, Jamaica, the Bahamas, Trinidad, British Honduras, British Guiana, and finally to America, where English colonist planters bought them in great numbers to work on their sugar, rice, and tobacco plantations. It is not fair to say that the trade was conducted with the official sanction of the English crown, for we have the testimony of Thomas Clark¬ son, an ardent advocate of slavery reform in England, to the effect that “although Queen Elizabeth lent two ships to Hawkins and invested money in his enterprise, she believed that in so doing she was merely engaging in the procuring of such products’’ as I have already mentioned. Moreover, that “when she realised that Hawkins was applying her ships to the kid¬ napping of negroes and their transportation to the Canary Islands and the West Indies, she censured him and withdrew her support”. It is plain, therefore, that the awful stories of cruelty to the slaves with which history abounds arose from the treatment of the private traders whose sole con¬ nection with the crown of England lay in the hiring of ships. On these slave ships, the negroes suffered more misery than it would seem possible for any human being to endure. And yet the stories of the slave-captains painted their condition in most glowing colors. The slaves’ “apartments”, the captains claimed, were fitted with every accomodation; actually, these “apartments” were niches on the deck or in the hold. They had several meals a day and the best of cooking; in reality, they ate horse- beans, and the lack of water left them gasping for life, practically suffo¬ cated. Naturally such deceit could not continue for long because there were witnesses of greater veracity who revealed the true conditions of the slave- trade. Unfortunately, the trade was already so well advanced in its vigor¬ ous development that its immediate cessation could not be accomplished. The revelation did, however, have an immediate and permanent effect on the English people, for with this early revulsion of feeling in their minds regarding the righteousness of condemning fellow human beings to trans¬ portation and servitude, there was begun a united and concerted effort by certain members of Parliament to abolish the trade. Three of these abolition enthusiasts stand out as the principal leaders in the struggle to make an English Parliament realize that “the slave-trade was contrary to the laws of God and the rights of man”—Granville Sharp, Thomas Clark¬ son, whom I have quoted, and William Wilberforce, Member of Parliament. These eloquent defenders of a human principle had each begun his task with the publishing of essays showing the injustice and dangerous tendency of tolerating slavery in England. Happily they came to know each other through their common interest, and they decided to join forces in their campaign and adopt a common mode of attack. Clarkson was to undertake a journey to Bristol, Liverpool, and Lancaster, the greatest strongholds of the trade, to collect first-hand information. His report, supported by the testimony of seventy witnesses to the inhuman acts of the traders, was incorporated in a set of twelve resolutions petitioning the abolition of the trade, and, in 1875, Wilberforce, with a strong backing of Quakers, pre¬ sented the Bill in Parliament. The opponents of the Bill represented im¬ mense holdings in the trade, and they bent every energy to achieve its annihilation. They spread considerable advance propaganda about the ulterior motives of those worthy defenders of a measure intended to benefit humanity, and their arguments in Parliament were so specious that the Bill was imperilled. Coupled with this distortion of facts were rumors of negro insurrections in the islands, which prejudiced Parliament to such a degree that the Bill was lost in the final stage by four votes. This first attempt had its happy result in that it enlisted William Pitt and Charles Fox, two brilliant members of Parliament, who agreed publicly on this one subject and vied in their eloquent and enthusiastic support of it. They died, however, in 1806, so that it devolved upon Lord Grenville to effect the abolition of the trade in 1807. It had been recognized soon after the beginning of the parliamentary struggle that the question involved was really the status of slavery on British soil. Inspired by their recent success, these ardent souls began with renewed zeal their crusade for total abolition of slavery. The course was much easier now; for England had at last been thoroughly awakened and the crusaders now met the enthusiastic approval of the prelates of the Catholic and Protestant Churches, both of which had heretofore looked on with mild approval. The Anti-Slavery Society relieved the aged Wilber- force of whatever stress of fighting might be encountered in the new move¬ ment. Gradually, partial legislation grew into intense agitation for abolition, and on August 28, 1838, with the consent of Parliament and the king, the death-knell was sounded for slavery in every part of the British empire. England had at last prevailed in her tedious struggle for slavery reform—had won her victory in spite of the selfish interest of her slavery advocates and the greed of her fellow nations in pursuing this infamous trade. Of the three pioneers of abolition, Thomas Clarkson was the only one who lived to see its success. To him then, and to William Wilberforce who died one month before the Bill received the Royal Assent, we bow our heads in reverence. It is as a result of their unselfish efforts that we now salute England, and extend to her the supreme tribute of gratitude for pointing out the path of righteousness to nations, and for setting a fearless example by erasing throughout her realm every vestige of that blot upon civilization, the enslaving of the negro. labbtrtorg Montaigne: The Living Voice of the XVI. Century Ella Klaiman The observance of anniversaries accomplishes at least one good end; it teaches us to appreciate more fully the men whose suffering and priceless sacrifice have added so much to our material com¬ fort and well-being. In paying tribute to them, however, w’e must not forget those other great friends of humanity, the thinkers and philosophers who, nourished by the best thought of the past, led the way out of the spiritual darkness of the Middle Ages into the daylight of modern thought and ideals. Such an one are we honoring tonight in contemplating the work of Montaigne. The France of Montaigne’s day was wracked by political and religious wars. The throne was occupied for the most part, either by tyrants or by weaklings, whose chief pleasure seemed to be to incite their subjects to bloodshed. During the first half of the sixteenth century, France was engaged in frequent wars on Italy in the attempt to keep pace with her rival Spain in the acquisition of territory. The remainder of the century was given over to wars of religion. The persecutions of the Huguenots, disciples of John Calvin, were brought to a frightful climax on St. Bartho¬ lomew’s Night, when the Queen-mother, Catherine de Medici, through her weakling son, Charles IX., ordered a general massacre of all Protestants. It was in such an age, when wars and rumors of wars kept the country in a constant state of insecurity and terror, that Montaigne lived. In the quiet peace of his own library, with his beloved books for companions, he was unaffected by the surrounding turmoil except insofar as it made him more self-analyzing and more tolerant. Michel de Montaigne was born just four hundred years ago in Perigord, Southern France. His parents, of bourgeois ancestry, had risen to positions of affluence and power, Pieice, father of the Essayist, finally occupying the post of Mayor of Bordeaux. Young Montaigne was given a thorough foundation in the classics, mathematics, and law. The entire program of his education was carried out with as little constraint as possible, so that the boy might have a spontaneous love for knowledge. At the age of twenty-one, Montaigne was appointed Counsellor of Parliament of Bordeaux. Here began his acquaintance with Etienne de la Boetie which ripened into the beautiful friendship that was to lead him to say, “The two greatest inspirations of my life have been my father and Boetie.” At the age of thirty-eight, upon the death of his father, Montaigne retired home to take charge of the family castle and wealth, a task to which he was wholly unsuited. He was extremely fortunate, however, in having a wife who with sympathetic understanding of her husband and real business skill left him free to read, think, and write while she attended to the financial cares of the estate. Hitherto, Montaigne had been known to the world only as a translator and editor. But at this time, owing to a chronic illness, he began a period of four years’ travel through Switzerland, Southern Germany, and Italy in search of health. This experience enriched his perspective on life and gave him much material for his later writing. But he was suddenly called to political duties by the imperative orders of King Henry III and he became Mayor of Bordeaux, the same office formerly held by his father. After four years’ service, at the age of fifty-one, he retired to his home once more to meditate and write. Here he died at the age of fifty-nine. Let us picture the philosopher in a characteristic attitude, as he sat by the window of his library overlooking the beautiful expanse of his estate. He was a little man, with a broad brow, kindly blue eyes, friendly mouth, and soft brown hair. Here he was surrounded by his constant friends, Seneca, Cicero, Marcus Aurelius, Plutarch, and a host of others. Through the Essays we come to understand the man himself. His study of the philosophers of Greece and Rome influenced him deeply. They helped him to cultivate a clear, beautiful style and stimulated his thinking. With them, he said, “Let us await our last hour without desiring it or fearing it, and in the meantime, guide our life according to custom and our reason.” In fact, Montaigne based all his conclusions, on reason. His one approach to every problem was, “What do I know?” On the methods and purpose of education, he had very decided ideas which came naturally as a result of his own early training. He insisted that the development of the judgment was of first importance and mere book knowledge secondary. He would avoid antagonizing the young stu¬ dent against learning by encouraging the love of it through the compelling interest aroused by the lives and deeds of great characters. We notice particularly the plea for tolerance and humanity that he makes. In a world of war, he had good cause to see the futility and wick¬ edness of hatred. His judgments were constantly tempered by thoughtful consideration. “Do not let us judge hastily,” he said, “for appearances are deceitful.” Although a loyal Catholic, his heart went out in sympathy to the persecuted Huguenots. The Essays, he says himself, were written not to teach, but to unburden a mind brimming over with thoughts, and also to perserve to his surviving friends, a life-like image of himself. The centuries have found the Essays of Montaigne to be a human document of great significance. In fact, there is no doubt that he was an important connecting link between the wisdom of the ancients and the new emphasis on things intellectual and spiritual in the modern thought of Shakespeare, of Bacon, and other great contemporaries. Thus do we pay tribute to one whose intellectual and moral legacy has not ceased to be of value even after four hundred years. VALE Classmates: This evening brings to a close an important period in our experience. We have been acquiring knowledge and building character to fit ourselves for the years ahead. Hitherto, others have held us to our course—parents and teachers, now, with judgment trained and ambition stirred, we must make our own adjustments to the world of affairs. And what a challenge the present world holds out to each one of us! It offers problems so entangled that the solutions are not yet in view—a groping for a greater cooperation between labor and capital, a searching for a public antitoxin to correct the over-emphasis given to commercialism and the securing of a finer international understanding. Montaigne tells of the mariner of old who said to Neptune in a great tempest, “O God! thou mayest save me, if thou wilt, and if thou wilt, thou mayest destroy me; but whether or no, I will steer my rudder true.” Our duty is clear. The challenge of our time must not go unanswered. Let us with minds trained and hearts sympathetic to our fellowmen, go hence, each determined to “steer his rudder true.” Classmates of 1933-B, Fare¬ well! (ElaBH lag ©ration Benjamin Myerow Beloved Teachers, Simple Classmates, and Vice-versa We’re off, and may the Lord have mercy on you, —you,—and you ! (pointing) I’m going to deal with a very delicate subject this evening. If I were to talk to a group of football men, I would call it common, ordinary “guts”. Were I to talk to the ordinary laborer, I would call it “nerve”, but being confronted with super-intelligent and intellectual sen¬ iors, I am compelled to call it “intestinal fortitude”. Now, it is only natural for the Math teacher when incapable of doing a problem to alibi with the term “insufficient data”; for the English teacher who errs—“poetic license”; and for the Latin teacher who wanders aim¬ lessly through the text to seek his pet grammar to back him up. But lo and behold when the student falters—Olympus roars with anger, and hurls his thunderbolt across the heavens, and the wrath of the gods descend upon his soul! And what do you, the student body, do? You sit back with com¬ placent smiles of satisfaction. Give me the pupil who will refute the teacher’s faltering statements and alibis, and tear asunder the network of evasion. Give me the pupil with intestinal fortitude. Don’t be troubled, my friends. You still have time to mend your ways. Fear not your Math, teacher. Walk right up and pat him gently on the head (drawing arm back forcefully) ; “but don’t rub the fur the wrong way.” After having been drilled in Latin pronunciation, be different. Put the emphasis on the wrong syllable (misplacing accent.) When about to doze off in an English class, forget the quotations of Shakespeare—the man’s gone. Pull forth a pillow from your vest pocket and visit the land of Nod. If they should want you down the office, notify the teacher to have the message sent up (yawning). Remember, you do not want to be awakened or disturbed in any manner! After all, isn’t it a pupil’s privilege? If you have a pet canine at home, bring him to a French or German class. The dog may absorb some of the knowledge that is beyond you. If the principal protests against any such action, just pipe up, “Love me, love my dog”; if both of you are found thrown outside these massive portals, bring suit against the institution—claim your dog was insulted. When in the Chem. lab. don’t believe the instructor’s assertion that arsenic and cyanide are deadly. That is the “bunk”. Pour out a liberal amount and drink to your heart’s content. Should it be possible that the instructor was right, be not dismayed; be comforted by the thought that you are a martyr to science. Fear not the exhortations of that famous history teacher who claims that the more she looks around the room the more convinced she is that Darwin was right, which is not at all surprising; considering the fact that the four walls are generously adorned with mirrors. No one can say that we are descended from apes and get away with that false statement! We can trace our ancestry back well beyond the Mayflower, Columbus, the Crusades; in fact, as far back as the flood. What flood you ask? Why! the flood in the library. During recess, stroll nonchalantly down the corridor under the marble archway of rotting oak, chewing on an O’Henry—without the flit, if you please. Should a teacher happen to pass, don’t choke, but share the O’Henry with her, flit and all this time, remembering that the bigger piece goes to the other person, even if it hurts. Should she refuse, don’t feel slighted. She’s already had hers. When returning to school after playing “Hookey” (Mr. Rossiter, come out from under that innocent expression), walk right up to the desk in a brisk manner—don’t get panicky or skaky—you’re entitled to a vacation. Jump up on the submaster’s desk—throw your feet up there, too—be comfortable—don’t be rude tho, you don’t have to kick him. Tell him all about it; tomorrow he won’t come to school. Then hand him a cigar, and walk right into your home room—don’t hurry. My classmates, if you practice these things daily and faithfully, I promise that you also will attain intestinal fortitude. Now, for the momentous question: What will intestinal fortitude do for you? It will place the sweet power of revenge in your hands: You will quizz the teacher; the teacher will no longer quizz you. You will have the controlling force—ah, for that little green book whose power holds sway on judgment day (poetic license, eh what?) “Parlez-vous frangais” (anglo- sized accent) will probably be too ' much for the French teacher. Send her down to the office. Have her expelled! Remember, in history class, that Mussolini is a great and noble character. If anyone should refute you, have her expelled, too! Pile so much homework on your Math, teacher that he will have no time to kibitz at his wife’s bridge games. Ban the volumes of that famous literary triumvirate, Child, Peasely, and Shakespeare, and introduce in their place the well known detective thrillers produced by Professor Nick Carter and revised by Public Persecutor Jenkins. I beg your pardon, Public Prosecutor Jenkins. Intestinal fortitude will secure comfort. Neither your initiative nor your necks will now be stifled. That strangling, colored noose with which you have been forced to adorn your manly throats will no longer be neces¬ sary ; your Adam’s Apple may now bob along freely. The necktie is a relic of the past anyway, and may be found only in the museum of antiquities. Roll up your sleeves, loosen your collars,—get comfortable. Intestinal fortitude also secures comfort for the mind. What this school needs is more pupils on the honor roll. You, the student body in power, must accomplish this. Revise the marking system. From now on make A stand for awful; B, bad; C, corking; D, dandy; and E, excellent. Do I see any beaming faces in the audience ? Everybody happy ? If these former teachers who are now your pupils oppose this system, pay no attention to them. Don’t be a “Yes-boy”; be a “No m’am”. Each and everyone of you owes his or her popularity to intestinal fort¬ itude. Four out of five have it. You may have it; you may have it; you may have it—Even your best friend won’t tell you. Take the example of “What a Line Lenny”, otherwise known as Shafer the Great. He came to this school an innocent lad tagging along at his mother’s apron strings. Scarcely uttered a word. It is said that he re¬ ceived his title from the fact that he came in contact with the Malden High School teachers for six periods a day. But we know this to be false. “What a Line Lenny” attained it thru—you know what!—Intestinal Fort¬ itude. Another example of popularity also attained by this same means is found in the case of “Sing me to Sleep” Clark who “sings like the birdies sing” all about Batch’s “cousin from Milwaukee”, He started off with a bang by warbling “In eleven more months and ten more days I’ll be out of the calaboose” and in a short while he will be granted his pardon; and from these prison walls will fly with the wings of an angel. Oh Albert! (Clark sings) High School take a look at me; It’s the last you’re gonna get you see. Good by! I’m going, going, gone. Now get my diploma out Tell your teacher we’re on the out and out. Good by! I’m going, going, gone. I’m going out into a world I’ve never seen before; Don’t know where I’ll land. I’ll have to get a job and work some more; High School here’s my hand. Lord Bless You! I’ll never come back again Though in memories you will remain. Good by! I’m going, going, gone. Hear ye, Hear ye.Intestinal Fortitude. I am now reminded of the young lady who decided to prove her intestinal fortitude. A bus line passed her house the nearest stop to which was two hundred yards away. Rather than walk the distance, she con¬ ceived the idea of inaugurating a new bus stop by the simple means of standing in the middle of the road directly in the path of the rolling vehicle. When I visited her tomb a short time ago, I read the following inscription: “This young lady had fortitude, but her intestines could not withstand the contact of a bus.” Classmates, I have a little surprise for you: Graduation is Friday night. You are going to leave this institution. Depart with the feeling that you will be missed—tell them so—for if you don’t, nobody else will. In closing, may you young ladies be blessed with the sleek, feminine figure of Lenny Shafer; may you gentlemen be blessed with the brawny, muscular physique of Charles “Bing” Crosby; and may you all be blessed with-Intestinal Fortitude. (£laaa history Mildred Powell and Arthur Roscoe CLASS 10. There comes a time in everyone’s life when he thinks he knows all. Ah, wretched Sophomore, doomed to know the truth, you soon found out how futile were your friendly advances! It was not you who knew every¬ thing, but the lofty Seniors above you. Nay, even the Juniors held you in contempt, and when you found you were a member of the high school only in spirit, since you had unjustly been sentenced to one year in the annex, your pride was indeed completely shattered. Well, life isn’t a bed of roses, so we unhitched our wagon from its star and started our earthly career. Since our first step was to get or¬ ganized, we called a class meeting and elected an excellent group of officers and five most helpful advisers, headed by Miss Helene Moore. How, under their leadership, could we fail to sail smoothly through high school? Though downtrodden by the upper classmen, we determined to show them our worth. Several of our classmates, consequently, entered success¬ fully the field of athletics, while others became active club members. We even helped the haughty Seniors when we tripped gaily around the May- pole on their Field Day. An executive outing at Camp Manning brought a successful close to this trying year, our first in high school. We had passed through the mill; we were now qualified to look down upon others. CLASS 11. When autumn arrived, the doors and the newly brightened windows were beckoning us with a friendly welcome. Several of our number failed to heed this call for education; but in spite of their defection, we still had plenty of reenforcements. We began our social whirl with the Junior Class Party. This was not held in the illustrious “Black Hole of Calcutta.” Our numbers were so great and our prowess so overwhelming that we were granted the “springy” floors of Beebe for the evening. And what an evening—enter¬ tainment, dancing, balloon-breaking, and, last but not least, refreshments! As the year wore on, we felt it incumbent on us to do something different, to establish a precedent for generations to come. The result was the Junior Class Play, “Skidding.” Coached by Miss Pearl, supported by an excellent cast, it filled the assembly hall for two nights and even won the approval of our headmaster. As a reward for this delightful perfor- mance, the executive committee invited the play committees and the cast to attend their spring outing at Camp Manning where many a frozen-toed Junior found the limpid lake waters almost fatal. Besides taking a very active part in club dramatics and school sports, we became noted for our keeness of intellect and scholastic ability. So much had we done that, although we were just about to begin our Senior year, we were easily on a par with, if not above, any Seniors of former years. CLASS 12. At last had come that year of years! We were Seniors! Now we knew everything there was to know. If any one does not believe that, let him ask our teachers—particularly our teacher of mathematics. No peacock had anything on us, as we strutted through the halls in all our glory. Why, some of us even managed to get home rooms on the first floor. With the presidential election on everybody’s mind, what was more natural than for us to have our class elections? James Norton, Betty Brown, and Mildred Powell were reelected President, Vice President, and Secretary, res pectively, and John Mehos was chosen our new Treasurer. Camp Manning had become our favorite outing spot, and here we again held a fall outing, which was attended by a great number in the class. What fun we had! Hot dogs—cider—n’ everything! (Don’t ask what the everything was.) Although we considered ourselves full-fledged Seniors, there was still the Class of 1933-A above us. When December came round, we did what we could to speed them on their way by giving them a jolly send-off at Beebe. Realizing that it was our class that was entertaining, the members of ’33-A eagerly accepted our cordial invitation and had no reason to be disappointed. Our programme, headed by the illustrious mistress of cere¬ monies, Miss Trixie Friganza, gave us ample opportunity to display our dramatic ability. As for refreshments — we wonder how many extra plates of ice cream these haughty Seniors ate in between romantic dances. One affair followed another. At the Faculty Reception we learned the facts about teachers. They can be just as human as we are, if not more so. Miss Slattery, with the aid of her fellow teachers, illustrated for us the evolution of the school teacher from infancy to infinity. We must confess that our “professeurs” almost outshone us in their acting ability, and you may rest assured that this delightful evening is recorded as a bright spot in the diary of each of us. As a result of the “unfortunate demise of the Blue and Gold,” our class, in collaboration with the class of ’33A, decided to edit the “Senior Screamer,” a paper both educational and entertaining. In fact, it has been so entertaining that we are still wondering who the Senior Snooper is. So great has been the success of this paper that we hope the classes to follow will continue its publication. The climax to the dramatic history of our class came in the production of the Senior play, “Tons of Money.” Again our actors and actresses found themselves in the headlines of every local newspaper. The greatest event of our whole three years in high school confronted us next. This was our senior outing, great not only because of the long train ride, winter sports, eats, etc., but also because we actually missed a day of school. At first, it seemed as if we would have to make it a summer outing instead, because old man warm weather made us keep postponing and postponing it. We hoped and prayed for snow so faithfully that the weather man finally gave in and let about a half foot of it drop. On the day of the storm we went home from school in high spirits and did some fancy hurrying that night to prepare for an early start the next day. How those Juniors and Sophomores envied us the next morning when they saw us the next day trekking up to the station from all directions in all sorts of rigs and with enough equipment for a trip to the North Pole! We pulled out of the station at exactly eight o’clock with the whole train to ourselves—and we certainly made use of it. Between the card playing, quartets, and conferences in remote corners, the trip actually seemed short and the train pulled into North Conway before we realized it. What a day that was! Winter sports appealed to us first so we had to choose between skiing and tobogganing or skating. Those who elected the Alpine sport tramped—some lucky ones got a ride—out to an ideal spot among the hills and mountains. The track was steep and humpy, but for¬ tunately it ended in a large field with ample room for spills. Between the skis and toboggans there were plenty of thrills too, nose dives, head spins, and even a few triple somersaults. Whenever any one made a successful trip, he was congratulated and admired on all sides. On the skating rink there were one or two “happy landings” also. Our boys thought they would show the “Cow Hampshire” lads a few things about hockey; but the young farmers knew more than enough. In the afternoon the train brought out a large bobsled called “Uncle Sam,” the largest in the world. The whole class piled on and literally ate up those hills, and at the bottom there was a truck to pull us up hill again. By the way, we were so good that we crashed into the movies—well, the sound news anyway. Then Miss North Conway came along with her gallant steed and took the class out for a sleighride. Well, about this time it began to get dusky, so we said farewell to the thriving town and hopped on our train again. The ride back was even better than the ride up. Why not? We had eats! When dinner was served there was a grand, hundred yard sprint to the dining car. We were so hungry that eating was the most popular game all the way back. Some children needed spoons to eat their grapenuts with at home so badly that they took a few at our expense! We arrived at Malden in good time and piled out to go home to bed, and did we sleep that night! But alas!—life even for a Senior is not all pleasure. Money has to be raised and expenses met. To this end, as well as in the hope of promoting good-feeling between the classes, we held an interclass football game and a track meet. You may recall the results—well, they were a financial success, anyhow. At last we were weathering the depression, and with our minds a little more at ease, we turned, as is the way of youth, to pleasure once more. This time it was a reception to us and the Juniors were giving it. How they could think up those “wise-cracks” about us is beyond even our Senior minds. A Senior dance, a roller-skating party, and a Spring outing at Camp Manning—good old Camp Manning—capped our Senior pro¬ gramme to perfection. And so our Senior Year ends. After all is said and done, we have left a record behind us of which to be proud. With such a record who can doubt that the majority of our class will succeed whether they be doctors, lawyers, or even school teachers (????) (Sllass froplwg The tremendous brain power of modern scientists has perfected and presented us with a wonderful machine called a Cosmicscope. This machine enables us to see into the future. When the penetrating rays of this powerful machine, which are invisible to the naked eye, are focused on individuals, a complete picture of their future is presented on a platinum screen. The controls are set, the rays come in contact with the members of the Class of 1933. Steady, as the platinum slide reveals all. Clear, clearer, lo and behold, Malden has changed. Old man depression has never been heard of since 1933. Nobody mourns his passing. As we gaze in wonderment, we see a huge building majestically tower¬ ing skyward. We take great pride in knowing that Aldwin St. Claire Erb, Jr. is the owner of this most beautiful building and he has employed many of his classmates of 1933. The plans were made by “Sonny” Goldman assisted by John Cosman, Robert Clough, and Howard Pederson. We see “Ted” Budilov now as superintendent and William Johnson as General Manager. As he sits at his desk, he presses a button. By so doing he is able to see what is going on in different parts of this building: the nursery department, where Ruth Ferris and Eleanor Kellstrom are entertaining the little tots left there by their parents who have gone to Europe for the afternoon; the Amusement department, where we see “Bill” Leet try¬ ing to teach his pupils exercises beneficial to those who do little walking. Araxie Pashoian is seen working strenuously in one corner. I wonder why Raymond Sammon is taking “Bill’s” instructions very carefully. As we look carefully, we see Art Roscoe, a new member of the class, who is heard explaining to Bill that his new Ralph-Moore Auto-plane is the latest word. It takes little space in which to land or take off and enables him to continue a ground trip in the same vehicle in which he has made an air journey. The wings can be folded for ground travel. These were patented by Tom Buckley and Arnold Clough. He uses it extensively on his many business conferences all over the world. Now we see the “Cafe Supreme” which is under the supervision of Philip Lukey, ably assisted by smiling Hannah Moller and Sonja Lawson. They seem to give the patrons the idea that they must smile in order to keep healthy and beautiful as they are. Doris Gould is dietition. We see her now, after planning the menu, chatting with the entertainment hos- QUasa frosty tess, Winnie Broos. Seated at the head table is Lieutenant Elwood Hath¬ away relating tales of his travels in China, by automobile, long since obsolete in the United States. He is the guest of honor of Mayor Robert Bossardt. Among the other distinguished guests are Hon. Judge Richard Berry and Chief Engineeress Ethel Karelitz. The screen now reveals a huge swimming pool. John Mullen is swimming aimlessly about. Yes, he is trying for a new swimming endur¬ ance record. Arnold DiGiacomo is seen handing victuals to hard-working John. Yes, there’s Jimmie Norton, ever-popular Jimmie, still a bachelor, endeavoring to train Malden’s would-be athletes for the coming Olympics. Maybe they’ll be able to start where he left off in the Olympics of 1944. Now the “Roof Plaza,” where John Shea and his “Soft Rhythm Kings” are hea rd nightly. John claims his music satisfies. They broadcast through the facilities of the Manzi Broadcasting System. We have just seen and heard Howard Locke, a very temperamental composer, render his latest ballad, “Peg o’ My Heart.” This, we understand, was inspired by Peggy Sherman. The announcer, Louis Bluestein, introduces Annie Col- angeli, Mary Chiuli, Erma Keddie, Ellen Hanley and Helen Kaplan who are making their debut before the television screen. These young artists just arrived from Europe via Boyle Cokkinos Around-the-World Airlines. The station is supervised by William Panich, ably assisted by Evelyn Morris, Graham Morse, and Sylvia Young. In the lounge we see Manson McKown, Inez Stolp, Henry Ober, Marion Devaney, and Ida Becker re¬ hearsing their new play. Now we see the scientific clinic under the direction of Dr. Myerow and his supervisor of nurses Irene Solomont. In giving directions he quotes some of his phrases from his now famous speech “Intestinal Forti¬ tude.” These seem to be interpreted by the nurses, Betty Brown, Mar¬ jorie King, and Lucille Knight. Tommy Renaghan, Clifford Nelson, and Walter Meckel had a bad case of NURSEALITIS and were going to engage a ward there, but they learned that James Kenney, Sam Pashoian, and Louis Perlinsky were internes there and they decided to postpone their attack until a more auspicious time. DARKNESS As the controls of the machine are shifted about, the rays reflect the following: A huge electric sign reads: “Shain, Rosenthal, Singer, Inc.” The owners, Rose Shain, Adeline Rosenthal, and Sophie Singer have had a hard time balancing the budget, but now have climbed the ladder of success, with their experience at Grant’s to back them. Anne Slonim makes change for the firm and Marshall Soderblom is their most efficient floor-walker. Their keenest competitor is no less than Edith Levine, who has become most successful as a modiste. Her several shoppes are in charge of Betta Govenor, Evelyn Reynolds, Sylvia Marcus, and Dorothy Williamson. William Zafron, Ben Toy, Lennie and Seymour Stearns and Sam White have a detective agency called the You-Go-Find-’Em Agency. They arrest only college professors because they feel sorry for young high school innocents who are arrested for looking like suspicious characters. Mary Simenowsky gave a soap-box speech on “Why Socialism Should Prevail.” Among her earnest converts were Roland Swan and Israel and David Tabasky. The latter boys told the audience to stop hoarding and to contribute to a worthy cause. But they were fooled once when Kathryn Magill, the first woman president, declared another Bank Holiday. And talk about speed! It took Dot Mahaney, just one minute and a split 45 seconds to get that bill through Congress. Speaking of Congress, Florence Coombs has just been appointed Ambassadoress to “New Amer¬ ica,” a continent just discovered by Sid Shafer on one of his musical tours. But what is this we see? Plans are under way for another new High School. Harry Jacobson is the architect, assisted by Thomas Lavelle and Edward Campbell. The contractor is Richard Harriott and Milly Lundgren is his secretary. The chief mason is Kenneth Mason and his chief assis¬ tant is Leroy Nickerson. The contracting plumber is Jake Feingold. We hear that Sergeant Saul Bagelman, who rescued Edythe Mover, the famous grand opera singer, and her femme de chambre, Eva Pizer, from the icy waters of the Malden River, has been given a three weeks’ vacation to Florida. Professor Irving Saxe, the noted criminologist, at Baker’s College, named for Hal Baker, has just written a book called “Fin¬ ger Prints and How to Avoid Them.” His theory is to wear gloves. Neat mental work, eh what? Ed Baker, the famous poet, has made a big hit with his latest poem, “So Sweet Like a Rose is my Ladye Love.” What’s this we see? Rev. William Winship performing a triple marriage at the Suffolk Square Church. The contracting parties are Israel Fine, Isaac Koretz and Isaac Books. Books refuses to have a best man claiming that he is the best man there. If anyone doubts it, let him start something. The witnesses are Mary Chevrier and John Burns. The girls have decided to take part in manly sports and have started a baseball team consisting of Louise Noble, pitcher, Beverly Cantor, Helen Enos, Rita Casey, Edith Clarke, Ruth Tobin, Sylvia Young, Mildred Jack- son and Edith Greene comprising the rest of the team. Fred Hanifan and A1 Kerwin of The United States Olympic Team, are coaching them. Mildred Cook has been left a fortune. Her lawyer was Gordon Spence. Eileen Johnson, Mildred Kingsley and Eleanor Jensen are trying to interest her in investing in their latest real estate project. Sylvia Kitsis has a museum in which the walls are papered with clippings recording the doings of the Class of 1933. Not many people go there, though, the long and short of it being that Capt. “Bing” Crosby and Dennis Hannan are the guards. Phyllis Roughsedge and Hy Klebanow have just won the awards at Edwin King’s Royal Art Studio for their outstanding contributions to art. As a result they have both been added to the Cabinet at the White House. Norman Spinney, with his cousin Hugo Bertram is building a bridge to the moon. It is guaranteed not to rust as it is made of Green and White steel invented by Jacob Green and Esther White. It proves profitable as Harry Van Dernoot takes the tolls. The money is given to Robert Magnu- son who wants a D.P.S., Doctor of Perpetual Silence, from Carl Singer’s School for Silence. The Malden Fire Department, headed by William Mahoney, its new famous Chief, is fighting fires from the air with chemical bombs invented by Muriel Buffet. She has a large chemical labratory, which is supervised by Ruth Frederick. Gertrude Johnson is the forewoman and Florence Cleaver is her assistant. They have four planes with Doris Levine, Beryl Newcombe, Arthur Plumer, and James Skelton the trusted pilots. The expert bomb throwers who have never yet been known to miss a fire, no matter how small, are Robert Van Annan, Alton Woods Jr., William Spencer, Charles Richardson, Herbert Phillips, Ethel Sarabrinsky, Ger¬ trude Stewart, and Rose Stolman. A1 Clark and Walter Prouse are producing another opera, which they have named “I Smell Smoke.” It sounds like a hot show. They have hired Howard Bacon to take charge of the stage. Vin Cohee applied for and received the position of ballet instructor. Barbara Savage, because of her ability, has received the position of director. Frances Babcock is the lead¬ ing lady and Gilbert Kotzen has been awarded the place of leading man. Harold Anapol is the comedian, while Betty Hodges will prove to be a big hit as comedienne. The fast-stepping chorus is comprised of Dot Andrews, Lil Ahlstrand, Diana Auger, Ruth Williams, Julius Wilgoren, Ernest Bjork, Aubrey Rigby, and Philip Ryan. The last time Ruth Brown was in Paris to select dresses for the firm of Stratton, Munsie, and Varnick, she ran across Debby Annable and Jessie Macauley, who had just received their contracts from the Edwin Rouillard Movie Company. They said they were expecting Gertie Feldman, Catherine Harmon, and Harry Bronstein to join the company. The dresses she selected were designed by Dot Lee, Allison Black, and Richard Hanson. Mme. DeStefano waited on her and helped her make her selections. She spoke highly of Emanuel and Sidney Freedman, who helped start her in business. Irving Kusnitz and his assistant Charles Jewell have been working for some time on their lastest invention. This wonderful machine records the sound of daybreak. Verna Barr, Winnie Bucknam, Dot Doyle and Beryl Malmberg are manequins in Annette Lareau’s new dress store. Ah! What’s this? The U-Hittem, We-Payem Insurance Company. Carl Blesofsky is president, with Phyllis Allingham his charming secretary. Fritzie Erlandson is first vice-president; the position was just made for him. Joe Cannarozzo is second vice-president, (he spends his spare time playing the vio lin), and John MacCarthy is third vice-president. Blanche Bivetsky is secretary to these men. David Butkovitz is the treasurer of the concern and Ethel Lambourne is his secretary. And who, do you think, is the adjuster? None other than Monty Cole. You see from his stage experiences he has always been able to take the other fellow’s part. The agents for the firm are Evelyn Kosofsky, Bertha, Katzeff, Ruth Kranetz, and Grace Lepper. Phone Forest Tree-tree-tree for information. The Sam Katcher Detective Agency, employing David GolifT, Lucille Knight, and James Enos, are hot on the trail of old Man Depression to place him in a museum. Oscar Baum landed on him and thought the hunt was over, but “Gloomy” is still in hiding. Barbara LaCosta and Dorothy Kaulback have just finished their sec¬ ond volume of “Why Sapolio Should be Used to Clean Pans.” Talking of books, have you read the latest one, “How to Boil Water” in five instal¬ ments? It’s written by Frederick Foley. But really, they tell us the best book out is “My Trip to Pa’s,” the newest planet, discovered by Margaret McCarthy, and written by Tom Driscoll. By the way, the books of John Barnes, Harold Acres, and Muriel Burns are taking up most of the room in the new Mildred Henry Library. The head librarian there is Doris Hyden, and her assistants are Rose McDonough and Dot Judge. Mildred Tarbox, Charlotte Salmen, and Phyl Ridgway have an exclus¬ ive school for boys in Saugus. Margie and Betty Kelliher teach Latin and Algebra in the same room, and what a hubbub! Bea Crooker is the dis¬ ciplinarian, Eleanor Thoresen is the dramatic teacher, and Rosalie Abbott is the Geometry teacher. Some of the pupils who are taking extension courses are Bob Davidson, Harry Churnick, and John Keefe, who takes a P. G. in Latin though he has successfully passed the course every term. Virginia Dickey has started to build a billion dollar racetrack in Reno. Judge Mike DeMarco decides divorce cases in a novel manner. The hus¬ band and wife have a race to see which shall file the case for divorce, but they become so interested in the race that they forget the divorce and be¬ come reconciled. Visitors to Reno included John Moran, Eleanor Crotty, and Lillian Floyd. The Tom Nelson Soft Drink Co. is doing a fine business because of the formulas worked out by Gladys Danberg and James Davidson. The beverages are delivered in blimps piloted by Frances Barber and Arthur Mueller. Demands on the factory are so great that they are going to have a new one. Thelma Novick is drawing the plans for it. George Laming, the famous “Kandy King”, now in Africa, is looking up the formula for his new Chew-hard Kannibal Karamels. They say Bob Silver went along to teach the Cannibals tumbling stunts to keep them in good humor in order that George might succeed in his mission. Fannie Laffer, who is in charge of the Kandy Syndicate in America, is eagerly awaiting a cablegram to start the manufacture and sale of these famous Kandies through these high pressure salesmen: John Griffin, Ed Leonard, and Bob Tarbell. Doris Noonan has applied for the position of taster. She is well qualified for the position, having won the last “Kandy Marathon staged by this famous “Kandy King”, George Laming. Billy Dinneen is the founder of the new International Uproar House in the City of Valhalla. He uses only uproars composed by Edmund Dins- more. He writes them after the style of Wagner’s opera. Henry Dziezic is the leading man and Mary Driscoll is the prima donna. Art Davis is the orchestra leader, and in the orchestra are Florence Daly, who plays first fiddle claiming she’d play second fiddle to no one, and Lester Millen, who plays a waah-waah trumpet. Stanley Crossman is the ticket-taker in the Theatre. He’s so used to taking tickets that when he has a visitor at home he greets them with the cry, “Stubs please.” Bill Drake works back-stage and controls all the effects. Florence Anguish interviewed Alice Newell and Gertrude Murray, who wanted to be the leading lady in her new play “Standing Room Only.” She finally decided to take the part herself with Annie Newman as her understudy. Her manager, Harriett Ring, gave the part of leading man to James Rendle. Robert Weir, Frederick Zarich, and Carl Voight have made a success of their novel hotel at the North Pole. This Grand Hotel is a Utopia in itself. They have appointed John VanBuskirk as their manager. It is his job to see to it that everyone is perfectly happy. They have Charles Wilinski and Charles Warwick to see that no one interferes and if they do—just watch out. Some of their exclusive guests are Dot Webber, Beatrice White, Doris Weldon and Gladys Wescott. Oh yes, and Mildred Powell allows Dick Woolfson, the desk clerk, to use her famous name in order to get more business. The last time she came back, Mildred reported that some learned scholars were trying to civilize the Eskimos. They are Alex Warrell, Harry Yaffee, and Richmond Wright, (the scholars, not the Eskimos). After three lessons the Eskimos gave up in despair. Bernard Silverstein has just received recognition on the stage of the Joseph Sullivan Theatre. He is known as Rudy Vallee’s little brother— Sleepy Vallee. His business manager is Pauline Butler and his secretary is Charlotte Shapiro. Francis Halpin has discovered a way of making a Kodak that saves time and money. All one has to do is to snap the picture and then remove it developed. He has a large factory with Walter Healy as Superintendent and Roland Graham, Mildred Henick, and Phyllis Foster as employees of the firm. The new wrist radio invented by William Richmond is going over very big. Hermina Rump, Eleanor Nyquist, and Larry Abber are the sales¬ women and salesman for the company. They have had a little trouble in selling the watch because wrist watches were barred in schools as a result of the invention. Principal Paul Buzzell and disciplinarian Marguerite Scanlan were particularly hard on them. President Ruth Pearlswig, of the Wrist Radio Co., sued them, claiming that the radio was a help to students, making their sleep during classes calm and peaceful. Besides, if the teacher called their names, it set off a little alarm and at the same time pointed to their place in the recitation. The Radio Co. won their case. Peg Corkery and Cristo Christou have a new circus. Peg Johnson, the high diver, dives 159% feet into a foot-bath. Larry Nasher is the “Barker” for the Victor Molay magician act, “Sees nothing, knows nothing, and tells all! He is assisted by Cora Park and Dorothy Potashnick. We hear that they draw big crowds. Victor DeRubeis flies to Europe weekends to report the latest games played by European teams. On his last trip he was certainly surprised to find Paul Gleitsman the pilot of the plane and Donald Marshall, Sidney Levin, Horace Cutler, and Fred Mahoney passengers. Freda Bruze is air Stewardess. Maybe that’s why Vic had such a bad attack of airsickness. Sarah Tobin, Gertrude Berman, and Gertrude Weiner have just started a school for stenographers. Doris Whyman, Gussie Winogradsky, and Ben Yaffa were their first pupils. They wanted to make up for what they lost in high school. Abraham Levine has started a country club for archery in order to help girls keep that school-girl complexion. Irma Skinner, Edith Stavis, Mildred Solomon, and Pauline Spector enrolled at once, and Ida Spiegal, Doris Springer, and Virginia Smyth followed as soon as they saw the results. We see in the Malden Mourning Gossip, edited by Evelyn Reynolds and Assistant Editor James Riley, that Louise Stokes is coaching the Girls’ Olympic Track 1 Team. She’s getting them ready for the next Olympics, to be held in Boston in the under-ground Olympic Stadium. The record-breakers are Betty Bickmore and Eleanor Ryan. Robert Pearse is the caretaker. Francis Rossiter is suing the firm of Klaiman and Goodman, a news¬ paper syndicate, for misquoting his speech on Citizenship. He still insists that “It hasn’t changed.” He is sure to win, because the reputation of his lawyer, John Mehos, who was recently appointed ambassador to Eurasia, has scared away the other attorney, Leonard Shafer, of the firm of Shafer, Shafer, and Shafer. Click! Click! The meter registers. The ray is slowly fading, figures are becoming more and more obscure. Darkness. Modern science can do no more. The future of the Class of 1933 has been prophesied. We must await to see what lies before us. Maybe our life pattern will be “stranger than fiction.” (Sima mi George Laming We, the Class of 1933-B of Malden High School, in the County of Middlesex, and State of Massachu¬ setts, of sound mind and memory, do make, publish and declare this our last will and testament in the manner following: That is to say, First, To the Class of 1934 we bequeath an ample supply of umbrellas, so that their dramatic progress may not be retarded by a leaky roof. Second, To Miss Dearborn we leave a group of listeners who will “eat up” her opinions of Henry Ford and Napoleon. We also express the hope that some day windows will open themselves at her command and close when superiors approach. Third, To all classes we leave the wish that the “no-school” announcer at WNAC may be compelled to work overtime during the coming year. We also leave them the privilege of wishing for a new high school. (We did without success.) Fourth, To Mr. Bartlett we leave a permanent supply of chocolate peanut bars, to be located on the first floor, and the hope that his teeth will continue to be in good condition so that he may forever enjoy these delicacies. Fifth, To all future pupils we leave pillows and mattresses to break their fall when taking off from the marble (?) stairs in the building. We also bequeath an underground passage to the annex, to be used on rainy days. And lastly, we do hereby revoke all former wills by us made. In witness whereof, we have hereunto set our hand and seal this Seventh day of June, A.D. 1933. THE CLASS OF 1933-B. The above instrument, consisting of one sheet, was at the date thereof signed, sealed, published and declared by the said Class of 1933-B as and for their last will and testament, in presence of us, who, at their request and in their presence, and in the presence of each other, have subscribed our names as witnesses thereto. . residing in Malden, in Middlesex County . residing in Malden, in Middlesex County “ kthbing” ' sr Sana nf iHoney” 1933 ltyn’0 Mjn Most Popular Girl—The Browns come through, with Betty getting a few more votes than Ruth.

They live, eat, sleep, and sport as other people do. No, not exactly as other people do, because they rise and eat in the cold, gray dawn of a cheerless day—that prayers may be said over their erring children at eight A.M. when all civilized people are beginning to contemplate the joy of rising; they sleep, but not until the notebooks, experiments, and “exams” are corrected; they sport, but with “dignity becoming a teacher.” Nevertheless, they are more or less human and therefore may be called persons .—A teacher. I have studied in their classrooms and found them hard, easy, sar¬ castic, and humorous. I have enjoyed their companionship outside and inside school and found them very human. They have treated me well, but they have their likes and dislikes and once in a while you will find one who has a favorite. As a group, the pupils of the Class of ’33-B couldn’t have had a better group of teachers than the ones they have had. As a pupil I think I can say, “More power to the faculty.” —Fran him Van Busk irk. I believe that the faculty of Malden High are, as I have seen them, just about as good as one could find in any school of this size. They are modern, congenial, and helpful. All the student needs to do is his share of the work and I think he will find that his teachers are willing to meet him half-way. One more thing—I find that the teachers are on good terms with the students socially as well as scholastically. The old idea of a teacher’s not being regarded as a human being by the students seems to have disappeared and in its place has sprung this new feeling of equality. I have enjoyed my associations with this faculty and I believe I can speak for many of my classmates as well. —Diana Auger. The word teacher usually suggests to us one of two possibilities; the first, a grim forbidding sort of person with an unapproachable air of severity; the second, a cheery soul, who seems to radiate vibrant good-will. But we, who have observed the faculty of Malden High School for the past three years, have arrived at these conclusions. First that there are certain teachers who are very radical. Second, that there are some who do not believe in punishing refractory students. Third, that there are teachers and teachers. The teachers are the people who pile up loads of homework upon the long-suffering students without any thought that perhaps other teachers are doing the same thing. The teachers are the ones who moderate and systematize all work which they assign, and make it refreshing and interesting by their own personal touch. Pauline Spector. TEACHERS—By One of Them These high school teachers, (may their tribe decrease!) Keep many a youth from a sweet dream of peace, He sees within the firelight in his room, Making it awful—like the day of doom, These teachers writing in a book of ranks One letter written clear and bold and frank: A horrid feeling makes the student cold And back beneath his cozy bedclothes rolled, In dreams he turns to them and says, “What writest thou?” The teachers raise their heads And with their looks of sweet accord Answer: “The E’s they’ve earned—the frauds!” “And is mine one?” say you. “Nay not so,” Reply the teachers. Then you speak more low, But hoping still; and say, “I pray thee, Write me one that gets an A.” The teachers write and vanish. The next day You get your card and lo! you look with deep dismay, To see an “E” where you envisioned “A.” Tales sunt magistri! Have you ever stopped to really consider just how fine our faculty is? Although most of us have always thought of teachers as wardens who keep us penned in a schoolroom on a glorious spring day, nevertheless we must confess that the staff of Malden High is far superior to any that can be found in Massachusetts, nay even in the United States. How loyal (although their wages do not arrive on time) ! How patient (no matter how ignorant the pupil) ! How cooperative (not only with the rest of the teachers but with the students also) ! To be sure we do get vexed with them when we discover a D on our report card when a C would have cancelled that E so unjustly, as we thought, acquired at the beginning of the year; but yet, might it not be we who are at fault, and might it not be that the teacher has given us just a little more than we really deserve to save another “flunk”? How many times do teachers give up their afternoons to help us make up work which we could as easily have handed in on time! How often do they spend their afternoons making up marks, trying their best to find some way to bring that E up to a D? All praise and honor to the teachers of Malden High School who put their work across, who make their classrooms lively and interesting places, who cheer up the dark, drab building, and who impress upon our minds worthy and noble thoughts so that we may develop into fine men and women. —Dorothy Mahaney. NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY The highest honor that can be attained in Malden High School by the student is membership in the National Honor Society, a chapter of which was organized in this school in memory of the late John W. Hutchins, beloved instructor in chemistry. This year’s announcement was awaited with considerable eagerness, for the number eligible was increased due to the size of the class. Character, leadership, scholarship, and service, are its requirements, and thirty-two students were found to possess these four traits: Florence Anguish, Diana Auger, Frances Babcock, Oscar Baum, Richard Berry, Albert Clark, Florence Coombs, Beatrice Crooker, William Dinneen, Phyllis Foster, Mildred Goodman, Elizabeth Hodges, Ethel Kare- litz, Marjorie King, Ella Klaiman, Hyman Klebanow. George Laming, Philip Lukey, Kathryn Magill, Dorothy Mahaney, John Mehos, Benjamin Myerow, Beryl Newcombe, Thelma Novick, William Panich, Arthur Roscoe, Francis Rossiter, Phyllis Roughsedge, Charlotte Salmen, Barbara Savage, Bernard Silverstein, and Robert Weir. These students have, throughout their school careers, not only excelled in scholarship, but have been leaders in various school activities, and have done their utmost to uphold the ideals of Malden High School. THE BLUE AND GOLD With the death of the weekly Blue and Gold, the Class of 1933-A put into practice the publication of a Graduation Number. Although this form of the Blue and Gold is a distinct come-down from the usually bi¬ weekly number, the classes have made the best of it and the paper has become quite popular and anxiously awaited by the Seniors. A most capable staff was chosen for the ’33-B number with Miss Adeline Gilman as adviser. The paper contains the Graduation Honor Parts, Class Day and Prominent Senior Sections, Write-ups of the Club Activities, Tributes to the Class Advisers and various Senior Class Activities. The staff includes Editor-in-Chief, Florence Coombs; Associate Editors, Charlotte Salmen, Victor DeRubeis; Business Manager, Bernard Silverstein; News Editors, Marjorie King, Irving Saxe, Leonard Stearns, Elwood Hathaway, Margaret Scanlon, Mildred Jackson, Evelyn Morris, Eleanor Thoresen; Athletic Edi¬ tors, Ruth Ferris, Vincent Cohee; Art Editor, Phyllis Roughsedge; Ad¬ vertising Managers, Philip Lukey, John Keefe, Gilbert Kotzen, Harold Baker; Subscription Managers, Mildred Cook, Barbara Savage, Hannah Moller, Albert Clark, W. Richmond; Typists, Lillian Floyd, Gertrude Ber¬ man, Adeline Rosenthal. THE SENIOR SCREAMER Since the unfortunate death of Malden High’s monthly publication, the Blue and Gold, the school has lacked an organ for its various activities. To fill this need, as well as to promote closer fellowship among the student body, the Senior Class decided to publish the Screamer. It has endeavored to present classroom news, club and class activities, sport slants, in fact all interesting bits of information concerning the members of the faculty and the students in an accurate, humorous vein. The staff upon whom this task was laid is as follows: Editor-in-chief, Irving Saxe; Associate Editors, Charlotte Salmen and Seymour Stearns; Literary Editors, Mildred Goodman and Francis Rossiter; Art Editors, Hyman Klebanow and Leonard Stearns; Business Manager, Benjamin Toy; Subscription Managers, William Richmond and Samuel White; Reporters, Louise Noble, Bernard Silverstein, Victor De Rubeis, William Dinneen, and Sumner Kalin; Production Managers, Aldewin Erb, Lawrence Nasher, Lester Millen, Norman Spinney, and James Riley; Typists, Anne Slonin, Mildred Lundgren, Muriel Buffet, and Sophia Singer. The Faculty Advisers are: Class, Helene Moore; Literary, Dorothy S. Thorpe and Laura M. Pearl; Production, Margaret H. O’Brien and Ruth E. Tucker. LITERARY SOCIETY President — Francis Rossiter Vice-President —MANSON McKown Secretary —William Dinneen Treasurer —Elwood Hathaway The Malden High Literary Society, the oldest organization of its kind in the country, entered upon its sixty-first year. The most notable event of the semester was the Lit-Usona joint meeting which was held in the school library. Lit participated in the Cog Open House Night and entertained with a short play. A regular program of debates and entertainments has been arranged for all meetings. Under the able leadership of Mr. Matthews Lit has prospered and con- tiues to prosper. USONA President —Florence Coombs Vice-President —Virginia Dickey Secretary —Harriett Towner Treasurer —Elsie Potter Usona has just finished a semester whose program has been except¬ ionally varied and interesting. Its high spot was the Mother’s Day party in May. At that time Mothers were welcomed as guests of Usona and Miss Slattery spoke. Another much enjoyed event of the year was the picnic at Boxford, the summer house of Miss Norris and Miss Herrick, which the honorary members gave us. We are very grateful to our faculty members for the many good times they have given us. We feel sure that the season has been one of pleasure and profit to club members, and we have high hopes for the future of Usona. BIOLOGY CLUB President — EDWIN PALMER Vice-President — ALDWIN Erb Secretary — Marguerite Perry Treasurer — Katherine Perry Publicity Manager — Carl Nelson The Biology Club has just completed another successful semester under the above officers. A most entertaining and exceptional group of speakers have spoken at the meetings. Some of them are: Mr. Robert Sellar, President of the Animal Rescue League; Mr. Orin Bourue, Manager of the Massachusetts Department of Conservation of Fish and Game, and also talented members of the club. The club held a successful informal dance in the school gym and a formal dance in June. The Annual Club Scandals were again put on, this entertainment being the first of its kind attempted in Malden High. CAM President — Ethel Karelitz Vice-President — Doris Shannon Recording Secretary — Erma Skinner Corresponding Secretary — Ida Spiegel Treasurer — Charlotte Shapiro “Cam”, the youngest society in the school, is now under full sway. The programs at the meetings have been interesting, including a talk by Mr. Hardy on “Two Students A-wandering,” and the reading of the lives of some important people. A book containing the constitution and other information, is being planned for the benefit of the club. Miss Battles was made an honorary member in February. The “Cam Society” also took part in the English Club Play Contest. The prospects for “Cam” are very bright and to the Seniors they wish the best of luck. COG President — Gilbert Kotzen Vice-President — William Rich mond Secretary — Irving Saxe Treasurer — Leo Kahn Publicity Manager — Jacob Gordon One of the oldest societies in Malden High is “Cog”. Under the able leadership of Miss Slattery “Cog” has again finished another successful semester. In December the annual banquet was held at the Kernwood Cafe and this was soon followed by the second annual Cog Open House Night. In May the Prize Speaking Contest was held in the hall and John Mehos won first prize. Successful meetings have been conducted and there is no doubt that “Cog” will continue to be outstanding. To the graduates they wish the best of luck. ENGLISH CLUB President —George Laming Vice-President —Bernard Silverstein Secretary —Beatrice Cushman Treasurer —Evelyn Kosofsky Publicity Manager —Sumner Kalin Deputy —Gilbert Kotzen During the past year the English Club has been outstanding in its activities. It has presented a successful three-act play, “The Youngest.” A pantomime was enacted as part of the Cog Open House Night program. Preparations for the second annual play contest and the annual outing are now being made. The graduating members sincerely hope that the English Cl ub meets with the best of success in the future. GREENROOM DRAMATIC SOCIETY President —Francis R ' ossiter Vice-President —Bernard Silverstein Secretary —Ella Klaiman Treasurer —Benjamin Myerow The Greenroom Dramatic Society, in the past year, enacted more than the usual amount of plays. The main feature was “Kempy” in the High School Hall. “Love and Corn Beef” was presented at the Cog Open House night and a play is to be presented at the English Club Play Contest which the Greenroom Dramatic Society won last year. To the Seniors the under¬ graduates of this society wish the best of luck and success! CLAS S OF 1934 In March, 1933, a new class was organized in Malden High School— namely, that of 1934. Thomas Reid, Helen Ramsdell, Genevieve Bassett, and Walter Callahan were elected president, vice-president, secretary, and treasurer respectively. Class affairs were many and varied. A successful class party was held in November, 1932; this was followed by “Cappy Ricks”, a play that was enjoyed by the whole school. Finally, on the 25th of May, a reception was given to the graduating class. This brought to a climax the activities of the Junior year. THE BAND Director —Chester E. Whiting Faculty Manager —Carl E. Taylor Student Leader —Albert Clark The Malden High Band is one of the best in the state, and no wonder, for look who’s directing it, the popular “Chet” Whiting. This peppy organization, with its membership of 60 musicians, has gained most of its popularity because of its service at the football games. Each year it presents several novelties both in music and marching forma¬ tion, and has received the admiring commendation of those cities to which it travels with the team. Their service is not confined to the school alone, for the unit has performed at the Armistice and Memorial Day parades, Christmas cele¬ brations, and charity baseball games. The band showed its ability in concert work when it participated in the grand music festival at the Lincoln Junior High School at which time Walter Smith, the famous band-leader and cornetist, was guest conductor. MacDOWELL club The MacDowell Club has just completed a most successful year. Its sixty members have received much benefit as well as enjoyment from the weekly meetings which have had for their purpose, not only the importance of certain technical points in the art, but also singing for the mere pleasure derived from it. The climax of the season came this spring when the club in a body attended the Music Festival at Arlington. The MacDowell Club extends its best wishes to those of its members that are graduating. EN KA The En Ka sorority wishes to extend its sincerest wishes to the Senior Class of Malden High for every success. Our sisterhood has had a full winter this year. We started off in the fall by giving a marionette show with a dance afterwards. This was a new idea for an enjoyable evening but seemed to meet with approval on all sides. Our next event was our formal dance held during Christmas vacation at the Fo’cas’le. This dance was the most successful we have ever held, not only in the social but in the financial way. We gave a goodly number of dinners to the poor at both Thanksgiving and Christmas. At Christmas we sent the yearly $25 to our French orphan. Early this spring ten of our girls took part in the Y.W.C.A. musical comedy, “Loose Change.” We have lately started a scholarship fund, with the purpose to help some En Ka girl, showing men¬ tal ability, who needs financial aid, opening the account with $100. We finished out the year with a sport dance at the Neighborhood Club in Swampscott, held not to make money but just for a last good time together for this year. Of course the money we made was not rejected, but we will put it to some good use the beginning of next year. GAMMA SIGMA Gamma Sigma, the oldest fraternal organization in Malden High School, has passed its thirty-fourth milestone and still maintains its high degree of fraternalism. During the past year its members have been well represented in the fields of Athletics, Literature, and the social life of M. H. S. by Cloudman, Hathaway, Weir, and Rouillard. Kappa Chapter conducted two successful dances in February at the Hotel Edison, Lynn and plans are being made for their annual Fall affair. The Chapter hopes to be well represented by delegates at the National Convention of all Chapters to be held at Buffalo, N. Y. this August. In conclusion Gamma Sigma wishes to commend the Class of 1933-B for its splendid Year Book, also wishing the graduating class a successful journey through life. May memories of their Alma Mater last forever. DELTA PSI Delta Psi fraternity is about to complete a most successful year. This year we had an informal dance, a Christmas dance, and a formal affair which was held at Hotel Kenmore. Delta Psi has established the custom of giving the Class Day Orator’s Cup. This year it goes to Benjamin Myerow. Delta Psi is represented in the graduating class by Saul Bagel- man, David Fine, Harold Baker, David Butkovitz and Isaac Books. s om FOOTBALL The 1932 football team, led by A1 Kerwin, enjoyed a very successful season, ranking as one of the leading teams in the state. For the fourth successive year, Everett and Medford were again crushed by the Blue and Gold. Three of the Malden boys won the honor of being placed on the first all-scholastic team: they are, Victor DeRubeis, guard; Fred Hanifan, half¬ back; Wilbur Stanton, tackle. Wilbur Stanton, regular tackle for the past two years was unanimously elected for the 1933 captaincy. The lettermen are: Captain Albert Kerwin, Fred Hanifan, Sam Pash- oian, Thomas Reid, Joseph Kelley, Ira Jivelakian, Vincent Cohee, Carl Blesofsky, Walter Callahan, Richard Harrison, George Gowell, Captain-elect Wilbur Stanton, Gordon Spence, Thomas Buckley, David Walsh, Victor De Rubeis, Leo De Marco, Julius Wilgoren, Jack Goodman, Ralph Worth, Leo Logue, Manager Kenneth Mason. BASKETBALL Led by Captain Leonard Shafer the basketball team started off with great prospects. Presenting a veteran line-up of Carl Singer and Robert Weir, forwards; Ralph Worth, center; Captain Shafer and Henry Meidell, guards, the team after a shaky start finally hit its stride. Just as things had begun to roll smoothly, the team was badly crippled by the loss of Carl Singer, Ralph Worth, gigantic center, and Henry Meidell, star guard. Struggling under this handicap the team tried hard but the odds were too great and most of the games were lost. Ralph Worth was elected cap¬ tain for the season ’33-’34. The lettermen are: Captain Leonard Shafer, Carl Singer, Robert Weir, Ralph Worth, Henry Meidell, Thomas Reid, Arthur Roscoe, Gordon Spence, Julius Swartz, Isadore Novick, Ralph Ring, Parker Tanner, Manager Harold Thurston. GIRLS’ BASKETBALL The Girls’ Basketball Team feels that they have completed what may be called a successful season. Out of eight games, seven were victories for the Malden girls. The first game was lost to Arlington, but by that loss, the girls became determined to win every other game. The first team captain, “Teddie” (Theodora) Rinaldi, has shown her¬ self a good specimen of Mrs. Jansky’s efficient coaching. Ruth Ferris fulfilled the position of active manager for the past two years. The first team consists of: Capt. T. Rinaldi, Ruth Ferris, Mgr., Phyllis Thompson, Arlette Lawrence, Phyllis Marshall, and Louise Stokes. The second team also won seven out of eight games, losing to Arling¬ ton, also. They were led by Capt. Rita McDermot, and had the able support of her teammates, Barbara Conrad, Evelyn Tarbox, Margaret Amicone, Alice Mehos, Demetra Koulouris and Emily Stokes. GIRLS’ FIELD HOCKEY The Girl’s Field Hockey Team did not do as well as the Basketball Team but they were under a handicap. The team had only four veterans from last year’s team and Coach Mrs. Jansky, (Miss Johnson) had a little more difficult job in training new girls to take the place of the last year’s team. Next year is expected to be a great deal more successful season. The first team, led by Betty Brown is made up of the following girls: L. W., Eleanor Buchanan, Marguerite Lupien; L. I., Betty Brown, Capt.; C., Marguerite Lewis; R. I., Theodora Rinaldi; R. W., Barbara Carle, Mary McCleary; G., Pearl Rudman; L. F., Phyllis Thompson, Mgr.; R. F., Ruth Miller; C. H., Blanche Marchi; L. H., Arlene Urann, Evelyn Tarbox; R. H., Bessie Norman. RIFLE CLUB Coach —Carl E. Taylor Team Captain —Richard Wolfson Recognized as the premier schoolboy shooting club in New England, the Malden High School Rifle Club has just closed a most successful season. Nine months of activity from September through May this club, with a progressive shooting program for a membership of sixty-five, has undoubt¬ edly made a fine contribution to the school. In the brief review it is im¬ possible to praise individual progress and accomplishment except to say that every member has made an important contribution to the club’s success. The club has enjoyed national publicity this year because of its out¬ standing success in the National Postal Matches as conducted by the Nat¬ ional Rifle Association in Washington. These matches, three series of five making a total of fifteen for the season, furnishes a competitive program for high and military schools from coast to coast. Our club has been represented by two teams, one in Division B and one in Division C. Malden has been a consistent winner throughout this com¬ petition and today each team enjoys the spotlight of a National Champion¬ ship, a record of which we are justly proud and which may never be equalled again. The Club will soon receive two National Trophies in recognition of the accomplishment and each member of the team a suitable medal. TRACK Captain “Bill” Leet, led his team to a very successful season. The team lost only one meet and that was by a very close score.

BASEBALL The baseball team, captained by Fred Hanifan, all-scholastic out¬ fielder, started off its season successfully including a victory over Medford among their early wins. Although the team was minus some of last year’s stars, it did hav e Blesofsky, Noseworthy, Callahan, Reid, Kelley, Farley, and Gay left as a nucleus, and with the addition of several sophomores it was fairly strong. Eric Noseworthy, all-scholastic second baseman and Jacob Ludmersky, sophomore catcher, are leading the team for batting honors. Prospects for the next year seem very good with nearly every member of this year’s squad back.

Phone 6311 ABROAD — IN THE BUSINESS WORLD Thousands of young men and women soon to graduate from the high schools of New England are now busily engaged in planning for that thrilling adven¬ ture—earning a living in the business world. To such may we offer a suggestion based upon sixty-seven years of exper¬ ience in helping high school graduates along to successful careers. This suggestion is: first, decide in which direction your particular abilities and inclinations run. Second, select a commercial school which can give you the most help in developing the talents you have to offer to the business world. At no time in business history is the matter of a specialized business train¬ ing more important than it is right now. There is little place these days for the jack-of-all-trades or the one who says, “What have you to offer?” Executives have cleared their offices of misfits—they want intelligent and capable young assistants who can bring to their organizations practical ideas and the special education needed to put those ideas into practice. It’s an old saying, but just as true today as when it was first uttered, that “there is always room at the top.” Thousands of our graduates, going into the world with the prestige of a Bryant Stratton education behind them, have demonstrated this to be a fact. Our graduates make rapid progress because they have been practically trained to give effective sexwice and that, more than any¬ thing else, is what the business world needs, pays for and appreciates. Offering seven complete courses covering more than thirty business subjects, the Bryant Stratton School is equipped to train young men and women who desire to specialize in practically any business line. Among high school graduates our Business Administration and Secretarial Courses are especially popular. If you desire to begin your training sooner than September 5, you may take advantage of a six weeks’ summer session starting in July. For more complete information write or call on Mr. L. 0. White, Principal, Bryant Stratton Com¬ mercial School, 334 Boylston Street, Boston, or telephone KENmore 6789.
