THE LIVES OF THE CUBS A ■■ Hhaj)M)(ly in Blue! — t)liu ' Juniors in tlie Innchrooin, l)luc Juniors in tlu halls. Far from lesiring tho liihernatin}; attitude, the “Cuhs” have fought through the years and shed their coats of green and of orange to array themselves in blue. It is our year of individual a -quisi- tion in the chosen fields. The Drawing, Painting, and Modeling students, .secluded in the upper and lower corners of the building, come b)rth at intervals with their triumphs of color and composition ; Teacher Training groups go into the fa.scinating happy realm where children. through courageous creative expressions, witness that their lives have been made richer; Costumers delve into ateliers with Patou, Molyneux, ami Lanvin to become our .so|)histicates, while llie band of lesigners march along with their two majors. ' I ' o the Juniors credit goes for the ear Hook, smock-day lecorations, and many personal trium|)hs in lramatics. We close onr year ' s fe.s- tivities with the gala Junior Prom and prepare to don the majestic Senior black. Ahli-NE (. ' lough, ' ;}4 THE CLASS OF A Sophomore is a tall, brown creature (unless he has a smock left over from tlie Freshman year) that lives on sandwiches and Freshmen; it may be found in great abundance wlierever there are lunchrooms. In every studio roundabout the Sophomore voice resounds. “ He .says his say, he goes his way, he knows no law but liim.self — Recollections of the beginning of this year are a bit “hazy, but the welcoming committee of the class spent most of their time in studios and classrooms i)lanning a royal reception for the Freshmen. will go down as the year which discovered James Kenny, who .sang for us at the Teachers ' Convention — and just ask us, “Kenny sing? The T. T. ' s boast that Herbie Hosmer lectured to a woman ' s club on “Furniture. “Three chairs for Herbie. Also, Laurie THE TERRIERS Kupferman is recorded as an etcher in the last number of “ Who ' s Who in . rt. The Designers helj)ed Mr. Thompson to illustrate his lecture for the Convention of .Art Teachers, and are working on a Scout emblem which will be used in all parts of the country. The sc-hool basketball team depended upon Max Singer, Cheslie D ' .Andrea, Walter Roberts, and William Kapousouz. Many Sophomores have attained promi- nence in Mascart — much credit is due to George McKenna, w ho rushed to substitute for the part of physician when the frantic cast of “The Alan Who Marrie l a Dumb Wife cried importunately, “Is there a doctor in the house? The Sophomore Prom was unique in its ball- room decorations, and tho.se who terjjsichored that evening are still looking at the stars. Josephine Bl.vtt, ' 35 ' ' CHICKEN M.S. A. opened last fall to many young students with burdened arms and (piestioning looks. We travelled from locker to locker, from store to classroom, and through halls which, for the express purpose of be- wildering the poor individuals, turned themselves into mazes. In a miraculous way draw ing boards, T-squares, and triangles were balanced under inexpert arms until .safely deposited upon desks whose tops, by the magic of certain words and vulnerable poking, sloped upward. Desk tops were made to slope so that triangles and T-s(|uares might slide down them to the door. We are not surprised that Sophomores, looking at us then, instantly .said. F ' reshmen. Our feelings of pride and great ambitions met barriers at the outstart and set us wondering. Ho wever, instead of drawing in notebooks, and LITTLE (desi)ite reproach) decorating the academic pages now we are en- couraged to draw more — this is something new and we like it. The members of our class have contributed in the musical, dramatic, and .scholastic pursuits about us. It has been a year of associations, and among these we count not only those with our colleagues and faculty, but also the contacts with the Fine .Arts of the world. AVe have di.scovered that the expre.ssion “born and not made does not truly apply to artists, and by ransacking the ( ' ojiley Square Library, know that it belongs to us. We aim to strive, going onward toward tliat goal which shines clearly before each one of us. M AKY M UKDOCH, ' 3ti

Without the.se humble representatives many of the pupil ' s woes would never be sensed by the faculty; secondly, it aims to make the most from allotments or other benefits. Our smock day will always be remembered — this is the day Mr. Newell took tlie Cliieks under Jiis protective wing. With “Jingle Hells came the Christmas Siireail. Enter Mr. Jamison amid mistletoe and tuna fisli. The high- liglit of this oeeasion was when one of the Chicks gave Mr. Newell an unexpected peek. Moral — Freshmen enter where seniors fear to tread. The final splash, our school picnic, miglit well be called “the Chafe and Sunburn Hour.” , fter the hustle and bustle of the school .year everyone enjoys the languor of tlie beach, and herewith absorbs one more fact before shelving his brains for the summer; — where S. NT)-wi(’HES did get their name. We contribute, lastly, the recipe for Picnic Cake : :il)0 students, assorted So instructors, grateful that it ' s over once more 1 president, well worn at this time 1 dean, always approachable Mix well, and serve with camaraderie.
