Ind Peb osuzMe Mr. Clarke R. Brookes, Sophomore Class Master, is in charge of the dis¬ ciplinary problems of all the M. H. S. boys. Among other things, Mr. Brookes also is co-ordinator of non-athletic act¬ ivities in the high school, and the one to whom all must go for reserving the club room, or music room, or auditorium. In his capacity as faculty manager, Mr. F. Champlin Webster supervises the fi¬ nancial problems of the various sports at M. H. S. As master in charge of tardiness, he records each lagging student who does not reach his room by 8:00 A. M. Our Dean of Girls is Miss Edna E. Turkington. Her aid has been most prominent in her unending efforts to assist the students of M. H. S. to choose their colleges, and fill out applications. Mr. Robert M. Perry, our soft-spoken Senior Class Master, is the man who checks in all the absentees. Besides this, he is in charge of the school supplies. Our classmates and advisers are: Clarke R. Brookes, F. Champlain Webster, Jr., Edna E. Turkington, and Robert M. Perry. Our faculty assistants are (1st row) I. Conley, E. Mer- curio, C. Stormont, E. Leonard, B. Wolf, (2nd row) S. Lucia, F. Bovley, N. Withers, C. Durant, (3rd row) P. Lane, R. Codwell, M. Clark, B. MacMaster, (4th row) C. Larson, S. Cunningham, D. Berrin. As we move through the corridor of Malden High School during the “S” period, we see busy students doing errands for the teachers, or set¬ ting up chemistry experiments. Others even do clerical work. These are the assistants to the busiest people in the school, and we immedi¬ ately recognize them as our diligent faculty as¬ sistants. Some of the fortunate faculty members, who have their assistance are: Miss Turkington, Mr. Brookes, Mr. Steeves, Mr. Perry, Mr. Melanson, Mr. Merry, Mr. Blair, Mr. Webster, and Miss Moore. The service to the school, for which this group is responsible, is appreciated by everyone in Malden High School. [ 13 ]

bin ctan,l . . . PmluIgsi Our special directors are as follows: seated, Mary E. Spencer, Helene Moore, M. Adella Johnson,- standing, Dorothy E. Blakeley, Herbert Silverman. May we present our city directors who guide the health, music, and art pro¬ grams of the Malden Public School system. Dr. Mary Spencer, director of the health program, has supervised a course in health for the juniors and seniors five days a week. Those who have profited by the many interesting guidance talks this year may thank Miss Helene Moore, who planned and directed them. The teach¬ ing of the home students from the high school is under the friendly director, Miss Dorothy E. Blakely. This May, through the auspices of our music director, Mr. Herbert Silverman, Malden has been honored to be the city in which the Northeastern Massachusetts Music Fest¬ ival is being held. Helen Hills, Eunice Young and Mabel MacQuesten are the three top office secretaries who take charge of the kardex and the attendance slips. Miss Mabel McQuesten, Mr. Matthew’s able secretary, Miss Eunice Young and Mrs. Helen Hills besides carrying on the work of the office in an efficient manner, have been very helpful to our class throughout our past three years in M. H. S. Never have we entered the office with¬ out being greeted by a friendly smile, and a cheery, “Hello.” They patiently make program changes, announce over the P. A. system belated assignments, or page us for forgotten lunches. Putting notices on the bulletin, and receiving shipments are among the many extra services they give to the classes and various organizations. We shall always remember the friendliness with which Miss McQuesten, Miss Young, and Mrs. Hills have given their assistance. [ 12 ]
