Operetta (3, 4) ; Cloak and Plume (1) ; Girls’ Club (3, 4) ; Poetry Club (2, 3) This smiling young lady is really our personality girl. Her cheerfulness has brought her numerous friends. We could expect one with such a sunny disposition to be fond of sing- ing, dancing, and music. Marcia also has a serious side. .She is a good student and is liked by all her teachers. She expects to enter business after she graduates. DOUGLAS ALLANBROOK “Doug” Lincoln School. Cloak and Plume (1); Writers’ Club (3, 4); Masque and Wig (3, 4); “ Philip Goes Forth” (3); ‘‘I’ll Leave It To You” (4) ; Chorus (1, 2, 3) ; Orchestra (2, 3 , 4 )- April showers bring May flowers, and April Fools’ day brought Douglas Allanbrook into the world. But in spite of his birthday, Doug is no fool. He is a leading actor of the Masque and Wig, as his important parts in the last two plays show. Everyone knows he is a talented pianist. In fact he hopes to make music his life work, and the class of ’38 has faith in its Maestro of Melrose High. EDW ARD AETHER “Eddie” “Gingie” Calvin Coolidge School. Football (1) ; Swimming (3, 4) Eddie’s interest and ability have made him a valuable member of the swimming club. He is the kind of friend every one likes, and we know that the qualities which have brought him recognition here will stand him in good stead in future life. FRANK M. AMAZEEN “Hank” Calvin Coolidge School. Bozuling ( 4 ) “Hank” may be recognized by the grin which is usually residing on his countenance. Besides the usual things which any boy enjoys, he has an interesting hobby, the breeding of racing pigeons which he hopes to enter in the W akefield Racing Club. (16) ARDEL ANDERSON “Del” “Lee” Roosevelt School. Hockey (3, 4) ; Basketball (1, 2, 3, 4) ; Swimming (3) ; Baseball (3, 4) Ardel’s engaging personality and friendly manner have won her many friends, and her keen sense of humor and ready wit have enlivened many class periods. Her interests lie mainly in the field of sports, especially in football and hockey. In these sports, we wish her luck with her “right guard” or her “bud”-die. To Simmons she is bound. Then we all wish her success as an air-stewardess. BERTHA ANDERSON “Peanut” “Ber” Swimming (2, 3); Tennis (2, 3) ; Field Hockey (3, 4); Baseball (3, 4) ; Outing Club (4) ; Cloak and Plume (1) ; Look Who’s Here ” (2); ‘‘Hollywood Bound ” (3); Masque and Wig (3, 4) Admired and liked by her friends for her genial disposi- tion is Bertha. She has gained quite a reputation as both a dancer and a singer. She plans to attend the Alvene College of Dramatics and Voice. Her favorite orchestra is Benny Goodman. Her favorite pastime is to “Truck-on-down.” Bertha’s personality, loyalty, and perseverance assure her of a successful future. SHIRLEY R. ANDERSON Lincoln School. Girls’ Club (3, 4) ; Chorus (1, 2, 3) ; Cloak and Plume (1); Bowling Club (3); Volley Ball (4); Operetta (3) Everyone knows Shirley by her sunny smile. Many a time have we seen her at the games ardently cheering our fellows on to victors ' with that good old “school spirit.” She’s strictly an out-door girl, with tennis and swimming her favorite sports. She is also active in the Rainbow and will hold the position of Worthy Adviser this Fall. As yet she is undecided about next year. MARTHA F. ATWOOD Lincoln School.

Girls ' Club (3, 4) ; Crafts Club (4) ; Operetta (3, 4) ; Art Committee Log Staff “Meryl” came from Springfield, bringing her cheerful- ness and gaiety spirit. Because of her laughing brown eyes and her many other winning wavs, she has gained many friends and much success. “Meryl” hasn’t set any de- finite plans for after graduation, but whatever you do, go to it pal ! DAVID ROSCOE BAKER “Dave” “Bake” Greenwich, N. Y. Cross Country (1); Football (1, 4); Operetta (2, 4) ; Track (4) ; Lens and Shutter (2, 3, 4) ; Euclidean (3, 4) ; Log Staff (4) ; Hi-Y (2, 3, 4) Dave diagnosis himself as being conceited and having both superiority and inferority complexes. He fears that his turned-up nose is proof of the former. Nevertheless, we have to admit that he is no slouch at football, in fact, his prowess even surprised himself. His interests are those of most any fellow, and he will pursue medicine at Wheaton College, Illinois. ISABELLE BAKER “Bake” “Izzy” Roosevelt School. Girls ' Club (3, 4) ; Outing Club (3, 4) ; Treasurer ; Baseball Varsity (1, 2, 3) ; Basketball (1, 2, 3, 4) ; Field Hockey Class (1, 2, 3, 4) ; Varsity (2, 3, 4) ; Vice-president of Class (2, 3) ; Operetta (2, 3, 4) Just as soon as this live wire entered M. H. S., she dove into sports and became one of our star athletes. If anyone hears a shrill giggle along the corridors, he knows that “Bake” is not far away. She has made loads of friends and, we know, will continue to do so when she ventures in- to the business world. ALAN BALFOUR, Jr. “Al” “Junior” “Balfie” Roosevelt School. Track (1, 2); Cross Country (1, 2); Hi-Y (2, 3, 4) ; Vice-President (4) ; Bowling Team (4) This blushing young blondie entered M. H. S. in 1934. Alan’s winning smile and well known laugh have won many friends in his class. DeMolay and work occupy a good deal of his time. He is planning on a career in business, and we are certain that his future will be a successful one. More power to you, “Al.” (18) ELOISE BARBER Calvin Coolidge School. Red Cross (3) ; Drivers’ Club (3) ; Imprint (4) Eloise’s quiet and frank personality have won for her the highest esteem of all her many friends. Her cheery smile is always lurking about, flashing on and off, indicating a sunny disposition. When her eyes begin to twinkle, beware, for she loves to play pranks on everybody, teachers included. We know Eloise will continue to be “tops” throughout life. MARYALICE BARNES “Banjo II” “Suzabella” Roosevelt School. Girls’ Club (3, 4) A girl with a pleasing personality is Maryalice, who has maintained all A and B averages during her four years of High. “Banjo II” adores movies and does not abhor eating. Her nit-witty and facetious remarks cause much laughter and gaiety among her classmates. The Commercial Course has well prepared her to enter the business world. ROBERT BARRAR “Bob” “Ace” “Bud” Lincoln School. Hi-Y (3, 4) ; Cross Country (2, 3, 4) ; Speakers’ Bureau (4) ; Track (2) Bob is an enthusiastic and competent scholar whose many fine attributes have carried him far in the estimation of his classmates.

BARWISE “Bar” Roosevelt School. Cloak and Plume (1) ; Poetry Club (2) ; Chorus (1, 2) ; Glee Club (1, 2) ; Masque and Wig (4) ; Girls’ Club (3, 4) ; Field Hockey (1, 2, 3, 4) ; Basketball (1, 2, 3) ; Swimming (3, 4) ; Tennis Manager (3) Helen has been just about the busiest girl in the class for four whole years. Perhaps it is because of her outstanding dependability that she has been a leader in every activity attempted. With so much to do we wonder how Helen can keep her good nature, but that, however, is one of her chief characteristics. Fair Helen is ambitious too. She is plan- ning to enter the Children’s Hospital. O9) NATALIE L. BAXTER “Nat” Roosevelt School. Operetta (3, 4) ; School Life (3) ; Log Staff “Nat” has won many friends with her cheery smile dur- ing her four years in Melrose High School. Because of out- side activities she has not participated in athletics, but she is always willing to do her share of singing and dancing when- ever the occasion arises. Next year she is planning to at- tend the Massachusetts School of Art where she will major in commercial drawing. CONDON BEAUCHAMP “Connie” “Beau” Roosevelt School.

His chief interest lies in running and tennis, although he is in- terested in all sports. His ambition is to be an electrical en- gineer and upon leaving M. H. S. he plans to attend Went- worth. Keep up the good work “Connie” and we are sure you will reach your goal. FREDERICK BECKWITH “Becky” “Freddy” “Fred” Calvin Coolidge School “Freddy” entered Melrose High a bashful and timid freshman. Although he has remained very quiet, he is al- ways ready to give an opinion of the pretty girls in the school. “Freddy” plans to go to Canada when he graduates to prove to his fellow countrymen that “another local boy made good.” Wherever you go, we wish you great success in your career. CHARLES BENEDICT “Charlie” “Boss” Roosevelt School. Track (1, 2, 3, 4) ; Cross Country (i 3 4) Charlie entered M. H. S. in 1934 along with many other freshmen. He soon made many new friends and was well known for his cheery smile and his track abilities. The two weaknesses of this dark-haired young man are the fairer sex and a snappy wardrobe. Charlie’s future is yet undecided but we know he will succeed in whatever he un- dertakes. (20) ALFRED W. BIERWEILER “Al” Calvin Coolidge School. With “Al” came that beamy smile and jovial personality that has followed him through his four “trying ' ’ years at M. H. S. “Al’s” school activities have been somewhat neg- lected because of outside work. However, “Al” joined De- Molay in his sophomore year and has given much time and effort since becoming a member. “Al” has no plans as yet for later years. LAWSON BISHOP “Bish” “Max” Lincoln School. Chorus (i, 2) ; Cross Country (1) ; Hockey (3, 4) B — ecause of his perpetual smile and his witty remarks we have acclaimed “Bish” as one of the popular members of his class. 1 — nterests are centered upon one of the fairer members of the Junior class. S — urely you can’t miss him at various popular dances and movies. H — e plans to enter a Technical college next year. We are sure of his success in whatever he undertakes. GEORGE WILLIAM BONZAGNI “Georgie” “Bonzoil” Calvin Coolidge School. Football (1, 2, 3, 4) Baseball (1. 2, 3, 4) George, one of the unsung heroes of our great football team, is a grand person and a friend worth having. Being a bit shy and very modest, few hear of his achievements which have been many and fine, not only on the field of play, but in the classroom as well. DAVID K. BOYCE “Dave” Calvin Coolidge School. Baseball (1) “Dave” is interested in singing and hopes to go further in it. He is also interested in mechanics. The more friends Dave” makes, the better he likes it, and his personality is such that he makes friends easily. His plans for the future are not definite. (21) ROBERT WHITMORE BRADFORD “Bob ' ’ “Brad” “Hey You” Calvin Coolidge School. Imprint” ; Rifle Club; Lens and Shutter; Hi-Y ; Cloak and Plume (i) “Bob” was born in Melrose y’ars and y’ars ago. Has since lived in a variety of places, attending various schools with varying degrees of success. Regards editorship of the “Imprint” as greatest achievement so far. Just likes to live. Won’t turn up his nose at a good book or a dance, though. Usually cheerfully. Can take a joke on himself. College. Newspaper or magazine work after that. BARBARA BRIDGE “Barb” “Bridgie” Calvin Coolidge School. Cloak and Plume ( i ) ; Glee Club (2, 4) ; Poetry Club (2, 3) ; Girls’ Club (3, 4) ; Operetta Operetta (3, 4) When Barbara came to high school, it was with a shy and bashful step, but as she accustomed herself to her sur- roundings, our peppy songstress had a “finger in every pie.” A ready smile and a cheerful word are things we can al- ways be assured of getting from her, and they are certain to be among her greatest assets when “Barb” steps out in- to the business world. EDWARD H. BRIGHAM “Ed” “Eddie” Calvin Coolidge School With “Ed’s” smile, friendliness, and thoughtfulness for others, he has won many true friends in these four short years. He has not entered many activities here because of work and many other interests outside of school. “Ed” plans to enter college in the mid-west, and with his fine spirit, we know he will do O. “Kay” in whatever he attempts. VIRGINIA BROOKS “Brooksie” Lincoln School. Girls’ Club (3, 4) A winning smile and cheerful disposition are “Brooksie’s” chief assets. She has many interests, among them boxing. Rather unusual for a girl, we ' d say! After graduation, she plans to enter the business world which, we are sure, will hold no serious obstacles for this energetic miss! (22) LAWRENCE BYRNE “Bud” St. Mary ' s School. Bud’s good nature and ready smile won him many friends among his classmates. “Bud” is interested in all sports, but his favorite is hockey. He also leans toward photography and traveling. He hasn’t made many plans for the future, but he is thinking of joining the Air Corps of the United States Army. A. ALDEN CAESAR “Joe” “Gus” “Bugeye” Roosez ' elt School. Rifle Club (4) ; Lens Shutter (4) Alden is a very likable young chap, endowed with a keen sense of humor which has added many to his already wide circle of friends. Outside of school, he focuses his atten- tion on philately and railroading, and, as a true DeMolay, he is a non-woman-hater. After graduating, Alden plans to attend a technical college and latei to enter the chemical engineering field. ROBERT CAIN “Caino” Lincoln School This genial lad graced the portals of Melrose High School four short vears ago. Perhaps his teachers thought him shy in ’34. However “Caino’s” schoolmates found him quick to cast aside his silent manner for the lighthearted ways of the good-natured chum that he is. Synonymous with en- joyment to Robert are hockey and movies. More power to “Caino” as he faces his vet undecided task in life with his inimitable smile. JEAN CAIRNS Roosevelt School. Riding Club (3, 4) ; Bowling (3, 4) ; Girls ' Club (3, 4); Chorus (2); G. L. A. (3, 4); Class Hockey (2, 3, 4) Everyone likes Jean. This winsome red-headed young ladv is one of the nicest members of our class. Although riding and swimming are her favorite sports, dancing also provides ample entertainment, and she is an ardent sup- porter of all school sports. She hopes to enter business college, and in whatever she does, we can say, “best of luck to you always, Jean.” ( 2 3 ) GEORGE CALT Roosevelt School We all feel that George is well along the road which leads to success. During his four years in High School he has maintained a high scholastic standing. George’s goal is Harvard, and judging from his progress here, we are certain of his future success. RICHARD CAMERON ‘Dick” Lincoln School “Dick” entered M. H. S. as a small, energetic lad. He likes baseball and follows the activities of both baseball leagues. “Dick” will meet you half-way in any undertaking. He is engaged in the business world and is on his way to success. He is a kind, likable chap ; has a most serious ex- pression. His spare time goes into sports and reading of books and magazines. GEORGE E. CASEY “Steve” “Crusher” St. Mary ' s School. Baseball (i, 2, 3) ; Hockey (2, 3) ; Football (1); Operetta (4) George is another of the “Highland’s Lads” who made good. Since entering M. H. S., he has been one of the most popular boys, with both sexes, in the class. This is due to his fine personality and constant good humor. “Steve” has been active in sports, but through ineligibility, he couldn’t participate in any this year. George is heading for Kansas University next fall. JOHN P. CASEY “Bunny” St. Mary ' s School. Radio Club (3, 4) ; Rifle Club (2, 3, 4) ; President (3, 4) “Bunny” is a very likeable and congenial fellow.

(24) WILLIAM ANDREW CASEY “Bill” “Will” “Billy” Lincoln School Proficient in studies and vveli-liked by teachers and class- mates, Bill will be remembered for his informal class cause- ries.

Well, here’s to you, pal, until we take that trip around the world ! RICHARD E. CHIPCHASE “Dick” Calvin Coolidge School. “Dickie” has been with us for four years, and although he hasn ' t participated in any sport, he is really a good ath- lete. “Dickie’s” interests chiefly consist of electricity and radio.

CHISHOLM “Chip” Calvin Coolidge School. Track (2, 3, 4) ; Gym Team (3, 4) With his ready smile and pleasing personality “Chip” has made many friends.

PHYLLIS CLARK Phil” Roosevelt School “Phil” is an energetic young miss with a pleasing per- sonality and pleasant smile. She is modest, too, especially about two very persistent dimples that just won’t be hidden. Although ‘‘Phil’’ did not participate in many school activi- ties, she spends much of her time dancing, riding, swimming, skiing, bowling, and attempting to “truck.” We expect to see Phyllis at Chandler this coming year and from there — well, who knows?

It’s either because of this fact or because he has such a gentle nature that the women, es- pecially sophomores, mob him. Because of Burt ' s versatil- ity in playing the piano and a game of tennis equally well, he will go places next year at Lowell Textile. Veniet, vide- bit, et vicerit !

Her unique ways and friendly attitude assure her friends that she will be a success in the future. SHIRLEY WELLS “Susie” “Shirl” Lincoln School. Nun tins Stafj (2) ; Outing Club (4) ; Girls’ Club (2, 3, 4) ; Imprint Staff (4) Calling all cars! Be on the lookout for a petite Miss with sparkling eves and happy disposition that make her a pal worth having. She’s five feet two inches, has fluffy brown locks and dancing blue eyes ; however, she has a dash of pepper for pep and vitality. Her hobbies are danc- ing and swimming and she has a mania for ivory elephants. May your life lack bumps at Forsyth, “Shirl ! ROBERT S. WENTZEL Calvin Coolidge School. Football (1) ; Baseball (1) ; Track (2, 3) ; Cross Country (2) ; Euclidean Society (2, 3) “Bob” “Bob” has a way about him that makes us sure that he will win many friends because he always has a happy grin on his face and a good word for everybody. His hobby is drawing which takes a lot of his time. Although Bob is not sure of his life work, he is planning to go to art school. (92) M. NATALIE WESTCOTT “Nat” “Chubby” Roosevelt School. Girls’ Club (3, 4) ; Chorus (1, 2, 3, 4) Who’s that coming down the street? No, not the organ grinder, but that Westcott girl. By the broad grin on her face, I’ll bet she just got a letter from her hide-out in East Kingston, Cow Hampshire. Am I correct, “Nat”? Ser- iously, though, we want to give you a running start, so you’ll go through Burdett with flying colors, and come out with either a job or a husband! DONALD WETMORE “Shakespeare” Roosevelt School. Cloak and Plume, Debating Club (1).; Nuntius (1, 2) ; Lens and Shutter (2); Masque and Wig (2, 3, 4) ; Speakers’ Bureau (3, 4! ; Writers’ Club (3, 4’ President ) ; Log Staff Hell bent for Harvard ! — or so it appears when you see him running madly about uttering vague remarks about “College Boards”. But to be serious, Donald, an honor student, who has distinguished himself by his brilliant com- positions, aims to be a journalist. He is also a talented ’cellist and a promising fencer. With such a good record in M. H. S., he should go places at Harvard. ELEANOR M. WHITE “Elbe” “Jimmie” Calvin Coolidge School. Home Room Basketball (3, 4) ; G.L.A. (3, 4) ; President, Red Cross (4) ; Class Field Hoc- key (4) ; Basketball Manager (4) ; Outing Club (4) ; Girls’ Club (4) ; Class Volley Ball (4) Who is this coming down the corridor? Why of course it’s Eleanor who is one of our most attractive and popular girls. Although she has not taken a great part in activi- ties and athletics, she has made many friends. Where there is a football, hockey, or basketball game, Eleanor will be there. Eleanor hopes to start training for a child’s nurse this fall. JOHN ALDEN WHITMAN Calvin Coolidge School. Radio Club (3, 4) ; Stamp Club (2, 3) ; Swimming Team (3, 4) John has aspirations toward being a chemical or elec- trical engineer. He was, for two years, a member of the Stamp Club and during his Junior and Senior years has been an active participant on the swimming team. He is secretary-treasurer of the Radio Club this year and has built a very successful receiving set. John will undoubted- ly go far along iines of technical endeavor. r, ar 4ft (93) GARDNER WHITNEY “Dick” “Whit” Roosevelt School. Hi-Y (2) ; Operetta (2, 3, 4) ; Football (2, 3, 4) ; Swimming Team (3) ; Baseball (1, 2) ; Glee Club (2, 4) “Whit” was the fellow who was seen at every football game with some red helmets under his arm. His favorite sports are skiing and swimming. Speaking of skiis he is pretty good at breaking those hickory boards. Although he was not very prominent in school activities, he was seen frequently in many of the school’s gatherings. Dick has his eye on the University of New Hampshire. He might be a farmer ! ! ! WILLIAM D. WHITNEY “Bill” St. Mary’s School. Baseball (1); Stamp Club (2) ; Football (3) Because of his cheerful nature, “Bill” has won a vast number of friends. Although he hasn’t taken up many ac- tivities during his four years with us, he has been working hard in and out of school, so he may further his education. “Bill” plans to go to Holy Cross. We know that in what- ever he undertakes he will succeed. ROBERT R. WIDDOWSON “Bob” “Baron” “Dodo” “Whiddie” Calvin- Coolidge School. Football (1); Szvimming (3, 4); Golf (1, 2, 3. 4) : Hi-Y (3, 4) Since entering, “Whiddie” has accumulated many friends through his humor and his superior personality. “Baron” has made his athletic debut in swimming and golf. Next year “Dodo” plans to attend Tilton before entering Tufts to study for Dentistry. We know that “Widdie” will be in there grinding and we wish Dodo” the best of success. LOIS WII.DES Calvin Coolidge School. Cloak and Plume (1), President; Red Cross Council; Tennis 1, 2, 3, 4) ; Field Hockey (2, 3, 4) ; Basketball, Class 1 1): Varsity (2, 3, 4) ; Class Sec- retarv (2, 3); German Club (2); Outing Club, Second Vice President (3, 4); Girls’ Club (3, 4) Lois has made herself famous for her enthusiastic par- ticipation in sports as well as in her studies. Her person- ality has won her many friends, both boys and girls. Her interests are varied, ranging from her favorite, tennis to sewing and knitting. Next year she intends to continue her education at Boston University. All good luck! ( 94 ) DOROTHY WILKINS “Dot” “Dotty” “Wiiky” Roosevelt School. Girls’ Club (3, 4) ; “Hollywood Bound’’ (3) ; Chorus (2, 3, 4) Dot, our smallest female graduate, likes such sports as hockey and football. Her pleasing smile and hearty giggle is a warning of her nearness. Having made many friends, she hopes that they will remember her in the future as she is planning to attend Wilfred Academy and some day to manage her own Beauty Salon. ELMER WILLIAMS Hank” “Al” “Boss” Lincoln School. Chorus (1); Football (1) Having a pleasing personality, “Al” has been easy to get along with. In his freshman year he started running buses to different football and hockey games. He was not able to participate in many activities because of the job he was holding. “Al’s” ambition is to own a string of race horses and travel with them to the different race tracks. EVELYN M ILLS “Willsie” Revere High School. Swimming Club (4) ; Tennis Team Manager Entering Meirose High the last quarter of her junior year, Evelyn wasted no time getting started. At once she impressed us with her keen mind. She loves to sail, but unless you don ' t mind getting wet, don’t accept her invita- tion. Next year she is going to Bryant and Stratton. Later, she hopes to earn a degree at B. Lb night school. ADDISON L. WIN SHIP, II “Ad” “Les” Calvin Coolidge School. Hi-Y (2, 3, 4) ; Operetta (3, 4) ; G°lf (3) ! “ Log ” Staff; Outing Club (3, 4) ith his smiie, his lack of freshman bashfulness, his bean-shave , and his undying love for Dartmouth, Ad soon became well known — especially to members of the fairer sex. For a year he confounded his pedagogues, but, since then, his main attentions have been turned some- what elsewhere. Despite this interest, he seems contented at the prospect of a four year isolation among the green hills of Hanover. ( 95 ) HENRIETTA WOODWARD “Penny” “Hen” “Henri” Roosevelt School. Chorus (i, 2, 3) ; Lens and Shutter (2, 3 4 ) G.L.A. (3, 4) • Girls Club (3, 4) I Field Hockey (2) ; l alley Ball (2, 3) ; Baseball (2, 3) Penny with her ready smile and pleasing disposition has been active at School. She is interested in swimming and tennis. When you hear “hi-ya!” coming from the cor- ridor you know that’s Penny. She hopes to become a sec- retary. We wish her success and happiness in the future, which we know she will achieve. She always has and will in the future win many friends. HENRY THEODORE YOUNG “Hank” Roosevelt School. Model Airplane Club (3, 4) Henry’s chief interests now lie in the fields of boat- building and model airplanes, although he is an expert at many types of handiwork. Last year he was president of the Model Airplane Club and in his back yard is a partly finished ’3c cruiser, a project which many would find too difficult. If he continues his mechanical tends, he should certainly do weil for himself. PRISCILLA E. LACEY Though not attending school this year, Priscilla is still very much one of us, for a girl, characterized as she is, by such charm and friendliness is not one we could easily forget. We like to think of the fine performances she gave in the operettas in which she starred. Her lovely voice is only one of the attributes which have made Prisciila one of the most popular members of our class. ROBERT MORRELL Malden Junior High School. Hi-Y (2, 3, 4) , Vice President (4) Rifle Club (2,3), Treasurer (3) ; Jr. Red Cross Council (3) ; “Look Who’s Here” Rob popped into the school in 1933 and has been popping in and out rather in- frequently ever since. His characteristic appearance is a sleepy glance and a re- ticent smile that seems to amuse his friends greatly. He quietly enjoys books, trout fishing, the outdoors, and not so quietly, doings after 12:00 A.M. Strange- ly enough, minks interest him, and he is destined to become either a fur farmer or a forester. LAURENCE E. ORNE Roosevelt School. Radio Club (2, 3, 4) ; Cross Country (2, 3, 4) Laurence has the ear-marks of a second Thomas Edison. In his senior year he filed a patent for an audio-amplifier which he himself invented — quite an ac- complishment, we’d say! Before we know it he’ll be a full fledged inventor and we’ll be able to say, “We knew him when — ” JUST PLAIN FACTS Reflections Reflections I 3 i ' ll 2 1|! c - £- s . at _3 o S|oS .2 ,E.SJ c c c rt 1 1 sa 23 II s s JtS ! c ' ? a ti ' C ' C-S c e «c-So r O X _ i?|S ' stS ifc=2. z . 2 2 = g U H-jt °llgj 5 I ££■ r ' J - w llllillllll (ioo) TRUE CONFESSIONS”— Continued = II b ,= ? •=!| ss z ii ]-g a - £ - w t 7 i W 1 C X X I.Sf .5 if §-■„ „ c „ - 5 = i Js-s s! rs i S V. !t ' w K V. - r- o u - fc, a H O 5 .-§ .2 c - 5 « if w £ .£ ■=_ I sills cgocccsjs. 1= £ i b : -a 2 S S - ■ W — . c C -c c c x o - u : Ills ■ ' ■ z = sac: |5 . ft . ! ■3 c q s = a = = = o S 3 2 = !

activities. The year started its progress with the response of a large majority of the student body to the Enrollment Dri,ve. To aid in their enrollment drive, the club was asked by the Red Cross Chap- ter of Melrose to design and execute window displays of downtown stores. This was successfully carried out by volunteer members. The first major tasks to arise were the filling of Christmas boxes to be sent away and the wrapping of attractive gifts and candy for the veterans of the Bed- ford Hospital. When Christmas came, baskets were filled with dinners, and de- livered to the needy. This year, the club had a chance to build up their funds by selling candy at the Masque and Wig play. With the aid of many of the students and Miss Blake, the club was able to make it a success. Plans are made for May, in which the club will visit the veterans in the Bedford Hospital. (129) (i3°) GIRLS’ CLUB President — Jane Fay Vice-President — Betty Kerr Secretary — Marjory Gillingham Treasurer — Lucille Colbert Corresponding Secretary — Margaret Kiley Faculty Adviser — Mr. McPheters This year the members of Girls Club have especially endeavored to live up to the ideals set by its founders and in every way to make it a more worthwhile organization. The Membership Committee has admitted many new and enthusiastic members who we are sure will efficiently carry on next year. Our Welfare Com- mittee has worked extensively not only at Thanksgiving and Christmas but also throughout the year. Some of the most interesting speakers that the Program Committee has ob- tained were Mr. Sprague, Miss Kershaw, Miss Louis Graham from Radcliffe, Miss Agnes Carr, feature writer of the Boston Traveler, Mr. Fred Lacey of the Melrose Y. M. C. A., Mr. Carney, Rev. John Collier from Wakefieid, Mr. Ro- bert Friend, Mr. Wilder, Senator Angier Goodwin, and Miss Garden. The Social Committee has cooperated in putting on several fine suppers and serving refreshments at Mothers’ and Dads’ nights. The Fashion Show this year drew a large crowd. Miss Bowry from Fi- lene’s, demonstrated and commented upon the latest spring and summer fashions. This year a dance was held for the first time It was a huge success thereby assuring more dances in the future. However, much of the credit of our many successful meetings is due to “Mac”, our adviser and leader and to our very efficient officers and committee chairmen. (132) FRESHMAN GIRLS’ CLUB President — Jane Metrray Vice President — Barbara Kendell Secretary — Carolyn Lentilhon Treasurer — Connie Gould Sponsor — Miss Moore The Freshman Girls’ Club was organized to promote friendliness among the girls of the freshman class and to provide a club open to every freshman girl. Approximately one hundred and fifty girls joined the club this year. The officers were ably assisted by a representative from each home room and by the program committees. The year opened with the amateur program in which many of the girls took part and closed with the spring dance. The girls have shown much enthusiasm and a very co-operative spirit. We hope that the remaining three years of their high school careers will be even more pleasant than this first one. (134) MASQUE AND WIG President — Robert McIntosh Vice-President — Doris Clinkard Corresponding Secretary — Annelea Randall Recording Secretary — Mary jane Claflin Treasurer — John Tierney Advisers — Miss Garden and Mr. Parmiter Under the direction of Miss Garden and Mr. Parmiter, the 1938 Masque and Wig Society has concluded another successful year, — a year particularly marked by the number of fine one act plays presented, among them being “Four- teen”— Gentenberg and “Where the Cross is Made” — O’Xeil, by members of the club; by “Babouscka” the Christmas play, and by the outstanding dramatization of the Noel Coward play, “I’ll Leave It To You”. The club enjoyed such speak- ers as Mr. Leland Powers of the Leland Powers Dramatic school in Boston who spoke on “Theatre Arts as a Profession”, and Mrs. Boothby of the Curry School of Expression who spoke on “Stage Make-up” demonstrating her talk by making up members of the club. These all helped to make the club year a decided triumph. The Cloak and Plume Society presented a play to finish the year. All members of the club and of the faculty are hereby thanked for outstanding help and co-operation. (136) “I’LL LEAVE IT TO YOU” Noel Coward Playing before an audience that filled the auditorium on Friday, February ii, “I’ll Leave It To You” starring Doris Clinkard, Earle Rankin, Annelea Ran- dall and an all star supporting cast, quite reached the high levels established for our high school dramatics. The supporting cast included Douglas Ailanbrook, June Torrev, Maureen McHugh, Norma Ahearn, Robert McIntosh, Carman Wolff, and Laurance Richardson. In one of the most brilliant of her performances, Doris Clinkard as Sylvia Dermott won the admiration of all present. In a role that suited her character to perfection, she outdid herself to interpret the part successfully. In the play, Sylvia was an actress in the films, and with an actress’ customary poise and charm, Miss Clinkard portrayed the part with great success. In the part of a flustered, distressed mother, Annelea Randall played the part of Mrs. Dermott. Putting her heart and soul into her role, she visibly im- pressed the audience, and a round of applause followed her as she left the stage after her first scene. Earle Rankin, as Uncle Daniel, successfully completed his fourth year in Masque and Wig plays. As a dramatic and somewhat hypocritical old man, he too won the appreciation of the audience as, with dramatic speeches and actions, he filled his listeners with tales of the wild and wooly West. As a passionate young man of twenty, Douglas Ailanbrook played the part of Robbie with great finish. His musical talent which was exploited on the piano, was greatly enjoyed by all, while the cynicism contrary to his usual character was very well done. A newcomer to the stage of Melrose High School, Maureen McHugh made her debut in the part of a schoolgirl, Joyce. As the adorable but bothersome “Little Sister” of a large family, she added just the touch of youth the play needed. Filling the part of the literary elder sister, Evangeline, tall and stately Norma Ahern dramatized her part very nicely. Also a newcomer to the Masque and Wig, she promises to be a valuable addition. Robert McIntosh played the part of the strong and silent elder brother, Oliver. Truly strong and silent, he was an asset, and the play would not have been complete without him. The Crombies, Mrs. Crombie and Faith, Bobbie’s sweetheart, were played respectively bv Carman Wolff and June Torrey. Mrs. Crombie, a snobbish and overbearing woman, was well portrayed by Miss Wolff, and her daughter, Faith, a cattish girl with high hopes of a fortune, was convincingly played by June Torrey. The butler, Griggs, was enacted by the well-known and indispensable bit player, Laurance Richardson. ( 38 ) “WAY OUT WEST” Presented by MELROSE HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL CLUBS MR. F.

( 39 ) ( 4 °) “THE IMPRINT” The issuing of a bi-weekly newspaper instead of a monthly literary maga- zine has necessitated a special English division of picked juniors and seniors. The prescribed studies of literature are carried on as in other divisions, but the grammar and composition is replaced by the journalism work, which naturally in- cludes these fields and many more. The chief fault found with this division by those in it is that they must use the degrading title of III (or IV) X, which would indicate a class bordering on the moronic ! At the beginning of the year, a system of assignment sheets was worked out by which the editors could obtain write-ups. These sheets follow an article through copy reading, first typing, justifying, and proof reading until it is pasted on the “dummy”. Which brings us to the most interesting and novel part of the work. The “Imprint” is printed by the so-called photostatic process. The mater- ial is typed, headlines printed, and everything arranged on a large sheet of card- board. It is then photographed; and the negative is made into a plate, which in turn is used in printing. Mary Johns, ’38, was the make-up editor for the year 1937-1938; but she applied, not rouge to faces, but articles and headlines to the dummy. This was done in the conference room next to the room of Miss Damon, our adviser; it being only half as big as it should have been. The work was made more difficult but also enlivened by such mishaps as dropping a drawing pen into a can of cleaning fluid; looking for a ruler, only to find it hiding in one’s own hand: and others too numerous to mention. “School Life”, the literary publication of the school, appeared three times this year, prepared by the members of the “Imprint” staff, but with different staff officers. (142) THE MELROSE HIGH SCHOOL BAND Frances D. Mont, Director The gradual development and steady progress of the high school band has already placed it in an enviable position among the organizations of Melrose High School. The capacity of the talented leader, Miss Mont, for intense con- centration on every detail of the task in hand, coupled with the sustained interest of more than two score pupils, has brought not only pleasure and profit to the personnel of the band but a real enjoyment and satisfaction to all who have seen and heard them play. Conspicuous among their many achievements are their quiet dignity and pro- per decorum, both upon the stage and on the football field, together with their strict precision and tuneful harmony in their talented performances. During the present school year, an all girls’ division has been formed with full instrumentation. Through concert funds earned each year, instrumentation has been consid- erably improved in the bass section. Among the many and varied activities extending throughout the year’s pro- gram, the band plays at Football Games, Armistice Day Assembly, Thanksgiving Assembly, Alumni Assembly, Football Banquet, Mass Meetings, Annual Concert. Let us all extend our sincere appreciation and gratitude to Miss Mont, our director. (144) THE MELROSE HIGH SCHOOL ORCHESTRA Melrose may well feel that as a community it has been greatly enriched through its High School Orchestra. From a standpoint of progress and achieve- ment, it has had notable success under the capable direction of Miss Frances D. Mont. In addition to providing music and entertainment of an increasingly high standard, as an organization it has provided an outlet for cultural and creative recreation. There is little doubt that the training received affords valuable pre- paration toward good citizenship, effective discipline, vocational efficiency, eth- ical character, and worthy use of leisure. The various public appearances of the orchestra always excite enthusiastic and favorable comment on the high quality of its work as well as offer a splen- did example of cooperative effectiveness. Composed of a loyal group of hard-working students, the orchestra owes its success, in a large measure, to the valuable and instructive leadership of Miss Mont. It also feels keenly grateful to the school department for having made possible such adequate provisions for its training. The orchestra furnishes yearly the following school programs : Christmas Assembly, Masque and Wig Play, Operetta, Spring Assembly, Graduation. LENS AND SHUTTER Presid ent — F r a n c es H i llers Vice-President — David Ba ker Secretary — Marjorie Tobey Treasurer — Priscilla Hess Faculty Adviser — Mr. Wilson The members of Lens and Shutter will recall President Frances Hillers calling the meeting to order and Secretary Marjorie Tobey reading the minutes of the last meeting. Priscilla Hess, treasurer, was there to give a report on the club finances. They will remember Margery Weeks’ lively discussions and Vice- president David Baker’s approval of the measures passed. Although this was the organization’s fifth year of existence, it was our adviser’s first. At times we were inclined to include Mr. Wilson as one of the members, because of his enthusiasm and interest. The activities for the year included printing cards at Christmas, conducting contests at various times of the year, and our scavenger hunt for photographs. Many new members learned how to print and develop films under the supervision of Thurba Hillers and Arthur Garlick. All in all, it was a very successful year. (146) NUNTIUS NUNTIUS, the publication of the Latin department, has, this year, com- pleted its fourteenth year of existence. As usual, three issues of the paper were produced through the joint efforts of all the freshmen and sophomore Latin classes. The entire Latin department, however, lends its support by subscrib- ing to the paper. In addition to its circulation in Melrose High School copies go to about fifteen schools located in all parts of the country and, in return, the Latin papers published in these schools come to us. These exchanges, as well as the current issues of NUNTIUS are to be found in the library. This year, the outstanding excellencies of the paper have been the covers and the illustrations. We are fortunate in having had several talented associates interested in making these features unusually good. NUNTIUS contributions to the school have included the gift of several books and a sum of money for the use of the Assemblies Committee. The cooperation of the Commercial Department in the mechanical part of the publication has been greatly appreciated. Miss Griffin and the girls of the office-practice course have given generously of their time and effort. (i47) POETRY CLUB President — Jane Cushman Vice President — Marieta Lowden Secretary — Maryjane Claflin Treasurer — Edith Vaii. Faculty Adviser — Miss Putnam This year the Poetry Club, under the able supervision of Miss Putnam, in- augurated a new and entirely different type of program. Occasionally, the club as a whole visited some place of particular literary importance. The first trip was to the Boston Book Fair in the Herald-Traveler Auditor- ium. Here the members heard many famous poets read their works. The second visit was to the birth place of John Greenleaf Whittier and the nearby Haverhill Library where a valuable collection of Whittier’s documents was on display. When the sensational play “Julius Caesar” by William Shakespeare was in Boston, the Poetry Club, accompanied by Miss Kershaw, enjoyed a performance. In the regular monthly meetings, discussions were held on the previous month’s trips, and poems were read aloud and discussed. The Club feels that this new program has been very successful and will long remember the many pleasant hours spent this year. (148; RADIO CLUB President — Ray McIntosh Secretary-Treasurer — John Whitman Faculty Adziser — Mr. Mansur During the school year, 1937-38, the Radio Club has carried on several use- ful and interesting activities with Ray McIntosh as its president for his second year. Although the ciub has no radio operators this year, it has conducted theory lessons during the first of the year under Laurence Orne’s able direction. The club has been building as a project a short wave receiver which will be added to and completed when more funds are available. The number of good sets built by members attests to the work that the club has done. The club hopes to continue its work next year and with its present members ' , its new officers, and its adviser, it has a fine prospect for the future. (i49) MODEL AIRPLANE CLUB President — Kenneth Nickolls Vice-president — Donald Chaplin Secretary-treasurer — Bruce Park This year, we have tried to carry cut our purpose of enriching the members in their knowledge of construction and theory of flying model airplanes. In the course of the year, we have accomplished much toward reaching this goal. On Friday evenings, we have had instructive flying meetings, at which the members bring, and fly, the planes that the} have built. The members have broken all previous club records during this year. Also, at the beginning of the year, we made an interesting trip to the East Boston Airport. ( 5 °) SPEAKERS’ BUREAU President — Evelyn Hall Vice-President — T homas McEnroe Secretary — Barbara Gott Scribe — Carolyn Lyford Faculty Adviser — Miss Boilrer The object of the Speakers’ Bureau is to train announcers for assembly pro- grams, tQ encourage participation in symposiums, to provide practice in dra- matic and humorous readings, and to furnish voice and enunciation training. Al- though this is only the second year that the club has been organized, it has proved to be a valuable asset to Melrose High and ranks among the more popular socie- ties of the school. Because membership was limited to thirty-five, many prospec- tive applicants could not be admitted. Every one of the members has participated enthusiastically and willingly in the activities of the club. The organiza- tion is indebted to the Misses Bohrer and Taylor, the co-sponsors, for their able guidance. OUTING CLUB President — Thomas Hebextox Second Vice-President — Lois Wildes Vice-President — Johx Mitchell Secretary — Allex Copelaxd Treasurer — Isabelle Baker Corresponding Secretary — Thurba Hillers The Outing Club was established in 1935 for the purpose of interesting stu- dents in extra-curricular outdoor activities. To this end much has been accom- plished by the now varsity sport enthusiasts but much is yet to be attained. This year the members and many others of the school have participated in various group affairs including biking, hiking, roller skating, snow train trips, fishing and skiing. In the past Winter Carnival at Mount Hood in which sixteen schools of this state were represented, Melrose High School Outing Club took twelve of the eighteen prizes. The boys down-hill ski team won their event in very fast time against nearly 200 competitors. Much interest in winter sports has been created in the schools around Bos- ton by the Annual Winter Carnival at Mount Hood which is supported bv the High School Outing Club, and the scholastic competition directed by the Outing Club sponsor. Barbara Smith created nation-wide interest in her competition with the boys in the ski-jumping event. Jane Fay was the real star of the girls team while John Mitchell, W arren Roukes, Phil Pavson, Robert Mack, and Jack Richdale took top honors for boys events. It is the desire of the officers of the club to build up a centralized unit for the future extra curricular outdoor activities of the school so that the boys and girls may become associated in common interests and civic unity. ( 5 2 ) THE CLOAK AND PLUME SOCIETY President — Norman Richards Vice-President — Elaine Tirrell Secretary — Dorothy Hosmer Treasurer — William Robertson The Cloak and Plume Society was organized in early October, this year, with Norman Richards as president, Elaine Tirrell as vice-president, Dorothy Hosmer as secretary, and William Robertson as treasurer. Forty boys and girls qualified for membership by taking part in the try-outs preceding the first regular meeting and, later, by paying their club dues. At the November meeting of the club the boys, assisted by one girl, pre- sented “The King’s English’’. Enthusiasm ran so high that they decided to per- fect the performance and offer it for a Freshman assembly program. In Jan- uary their efforts were warmly applauded by fellow classmates, and accurately reported by a reporter and photographer representing The Imprint. In the meantime the girls of the club prepared a play for the Christmas pro- gram. They also gave “Miss Oliver’s Dollars” before the Masque and Wig So- ciety at a joint meeting at which the two dramatic clubs entertained each other. With this meeting the year’s activities came to a pleasant conclusion. (i53) IH3B2S; ' THE GLEE CLUB Our aim this year was to gain a better knowledge and understanding of mu- sic and music composers. We accomplished a great deal during the year. Beside the usual singing, we had lectures, dictation on composers and their works, and research work on music. We undertook many difficult pieces of music, some of which most schools would not attempt. Although our outside activities are limited, we have given two school as- semblies and assisted in others. We thoroughly enjoyed our trip to the Music Festival held at Fall River last May. A few of the songs included in the year’s work are: “The Three Sea Chan- ties”, “Take It As It Comes”, “The Winter Song”, and “The Dreaming Lake”. All our success we owe to the competence and capability of our excellent di- (i54 rector, Mr. Whalen. WRITERS’ CLUB . President — Donald Wet more Vice-President — Frances Hillers Treasurer — Carman Wolff Secretary — Betty Cloues Faculty Adviser — Mr. Carney The Writers’ Club was founded two years ago bv a group of students mu- tually interested in the various types of creative writing and especially eager to gain an acquaintance with those types not touched upon in the English courses. During the last year the members have informally studied newspaper journalism, and famous writers’ methods and approach to their work. The club was fortun- ate in securing for its annual speaker Mr. Harlan Ratclifte of the “Boston Tran- script”. (i55) CRAFTS CLUB President — Shirley Souther Treasurer — Janet Shrader f Secretary — Louise Richardson Faculty Adviser - — Miss Goodrich The Crafts Club was organized this year and consists of those boys and girls of the three upper classes interested in making useful and ornamental things from leather and metal. Belts, braclets, and pocketbooks seem to be most popu- lar with the girls. We have had very successful and informal meetings even ' other Thursday under the skilled supervision of Miss Goodrich and feel sure that this club begun in “38” will continue successfully. (156) EUCLIDEAN SOCIETY President — David Baker Vice-president — Amy Wentworth Chr. Program Comm. — Robert Monroe Secretary — Priscilla Hess Treasurer — Roger Collins The purpose of the Euclidean Society, founded in 1913, in Melrose High School, is “To promote the standard of Mathematics and Science and to keep informed on Mathematical and Scientific discoveries”. To become a member of the club and to maintain membership, one must have an A or B average in math- ematics or sciences. Only juniors and seniors are eligible for membership. The Society is the only one in the school which is founded on scholarship. Through the efforts of Robert Munroe, Chairman of the Program Commit- tee, it has been made possible for us to make trips to such interesting places as the Harvard Museum, the Ford Motor Plant, the engine house of the B. M. railroad, and the Lever Bros. Soap Factory. It is through such trips and, also, speakers that we have gained a clearer knowledge of the study of mathematics and sciences. (i57) HI-Y President — Tyler Peabody Vice President — Alan P ai.four Treasurer — Stuart Hutton Secretary — Raymond Washburn Faculty Adviser — Mr. Wilson On May 23, the date of the Hi-Y and Girls’ Club spring banquet, the Mel- rose Hi-Y Club closes one of its most eventful seasons. We began our social season with a banquet with the Girls’ Ciub in September. After we ate, we went to the auditorium and had a community sing under the leadership of “Mac.” Parents’ night, which was held in January, was attended by about sixty. This shows well the success of the undertaking. The Hi-Y dance, on March 4, was very well run and was very profitable. We are sure that all who attended were well pleased with the evening’s events. In the latter part of June, the National Hi-Y Congress will meet at Berea College at Berea, Kentucky. Melrose will be represented by the president- elect. This year, on the whole, was very successful, the success being largely due to the efforts of President Tyler Peabody and Committee Chairmen Thomas Mc- Enroe, Jack Horne, Stanley Phillips, and Alan Balfour. (158) Reflections ft A. . J3.C. t.tt- E. T. F.n. M.D. AC. H.s. 3 S. A. A. KV Reflections FOOTBALL Captain — Fred Kidd Manager — Stanley Phillips Coaches — Mr. Poole and Mr. Whalen We haven’t enough space here to give this team and its fine coaches, Mr. Poole and Mr. halen, the praise they deserve. To begin with, they went through a hard schedule, including some of the best teams in the state, undefeated. Among their victories were the spectacular win over Medford, the never-to-be- forgotten victory over Malden, and the thrill-filled Arlington game, which more than pleased the Melrose rooters. Some highlights to be remembered are Baker’s brilliant play all year, Bon- zagni ' s interception and touchdown in the Malden game, Folger’s assistance in the blocking of Malden’s goal-line kick, Keady’s interception of an Arlington pass, Kidd’s touchdown in the Malden game, Lever’s five yards whenever it was needed, Murphy’s touchdown at Medford, Xorkevitch’s saving of the Malden game, Priestley’s assistance in the blocking of Malden’s goal-line kick, and touch- down at Wakefield, Sheridan’s touchdown at Arlington, Stone’s touchdown at Woburn, and Turner’s outstanding center play. HOCKEY The Hockey team finished in a tie for third place in the G.B.I. League. Cap- tain Leo Turner who lost to the team for the first half of the season as he broke his collar-bone in pre-season practice. The boys, missing his leadership and fine play, dropped three of the first five games. Turner returned in mid-season and Melrose showed marked improvement, for they finished the remaining five league games undefeated and also earned a decisive victory over a strong Exeter Acad- emy team. “Bob Priestly and Turner led the scorers, while the defense was handled by Kidd, Lantz, Guibord, and “Jake” Liston in goal. Grant, Holt, Reardon, and Freshman Charlie Holt played well as forwards. Kidd, Lantz, Priestly, and Turner were named on the League All Star Team, which lost to Hebron 4-3 and won from the Bay State Stars 2 - 1 . (163) TRACK Seventy-three boys reported on the first call for track candidates this spring. The squad is lacking veteran material but hopes to make a fine record before the season is over. Outstanding among the candidates are the sprinters. In the early season practice sessions Fred Kidd, Richard Folger, William Sheridan, Stanley Phillips and Ray Washburn seem to be outstanding. George Chisholm, Ted Carpenter, John Abbott and William Abbott represent the real experienced boys of the squad with John Bridgewater and Leo Turner likely to surprise the fans before the end of the season with record performances. The schedule this year is considerably harder than on previous seasons and, therefore, this year’s record will be worth following, we think. The schedule : May 7 New Hampshire Interscholastics at Durham, N. H. May 13 Winthrop at Winthrop May 17 Everett at Melrose May 18 Wakefield at Melrose May 20 Woburn at Melrose May 21 Fitchburg Relay at Fitchburg May 25 Lynn Classical at Melrose June 3 Mystic Valley Championships at Melrose (164) CROSS-COUNTRY This year the Melrose Cross-Country team led its school in the field of sport. Permanent possession of the Mystic Valley League trophy was gained after having won the race for three consecutive years. The deciding race for this trophy was run at Beverly. The state and New England championships were both won in the same race at Providence, R. I. Due to graduation, “Doc” Clark is losing six veterans, namely: “Bob’ ' Toombs, Captain 1936, “Dick” Hosmer, Captain 1937, “Tom Hebenton, “Char- lie” Benedict, Lawrence Stark, and “Bob” Barrar. Even though these veteran hill-and-dalers will not be here next fall, “Doc” has fine prospects for next sea- son. The back-bone of next year’s team will be “Ted” Carpenter, “Johnnie” Bridgewater, Lewis Wells, “Jimmie” Schaefer, and “Zip” Zurbach. Under the able leadership of “Doc”, the next year’s boys should carry on where our present “Champs” left off. (165) BOYS’ TENNIS TEAM The tennis season was officially opened on April n, when Coach Udall called the first indoor practice. As the gym offered only limited facilities for any real improvements, at the advent of good weather, it was a commonplace sight to see the white-trousered horde out on the boulevard courts, getting limbered up for the fast approaching season. With such seasoned veterans as Monroe, Lov- eys, Horne, Miles, and Kinnison in the ranking positions, Melrose last year fin- ished in second place in the Suburban League, and already this season has van- quished such staunch adversaries as Arlington and Watertown. With such an auspicious beginning, already on top in the league, Melrose looks ahead to com- pleting a very successful season. fi66) GOLF This year our golf team has been entered in the Middlesex Golf League. To date they have played two matches and have won both handily, scoring a total of 1 6 points to their opponents’ 2. They have high hopes of winning their league and then entering the Interscholastic Championship. I f they win their league, they will compete against the winner of the South Shore League for a position in championship play offs. The following are members of the team : Edward Franzeim, Donald Kelley, Robert Jordan, David Paul, John Cox, Robert Wid- dowson, and Everett Graham. (167) BOYS’ BASKETBALL Co-Captains — Edward Franzeim, William Sheridan Manager — William Abbott Coach — Irving Neiman Lettermen : “Bill” Sheridan, “Ed” Franzeim, Co-Captains, Jack Bridge- water, Ken Linberg, Dick Else, “Zip” Zurbach, Lenny Norkevitch, Jack Man- ning, Jack Ritchie, W. Abbott, Don Emig. The basketball season from a strictly win or lose viewpoint was not very impressive, but anyone famiiiar with the team’s record will point out that many of our losses were by close scores, which, with a few “breaks”, might easily have been won. The team’s play improved steadily as the season progressed, shining particularly on the defensive. Jack Bridgewater and Ed Franzeim were definite- ly bulwarks on the defense while Bill Sheridan and Don Emig worked excellent- ly together in the fore court. Ken Lindberg with his one handed shots was al- ways a scoring threat. Substitutes Else and Zurbach indicate that the forward problem is more or less solved for next year while Jack Ritchie, by his play in the last few games, seems to take care of the center position very well. Lennv Norkevitch was a handy man to have around as a reserve center and guard. It is possible that Melrose will enter a league next year which, together with the excellent prospects we have, should do a great deal towards creating interest in basketball among members of the school and the community. (168) RIFLE CLUB This club was established four years ago by the efficient Mr. Worth. When Mr. Worth left this city, the club disbanded, but Mr. Lombard reorganized and managed it for a time. Mr. Mansur took over the club when Mr. Lombard left us for another school club. The whole club agrees that Mr. Mansur has done a good job, and we are very proud to have him as faculty adviser. We ail hope he continues with us. The club has had return matches with Malden, Stoneham, and Haverhill, former contestants, and we have been quite successful. Next year we hope to form a league with some other schools and have many more matches. The club has been very fortunate in having the use of two ranges for prac- tice shooting, an indoor range at the Legion Bungalow and an outdoor range at the Fish and Game club. This gives us an insight in both angles of target shoot- ing. Not many school clubs have this advantage. (169) BOYS’ SWIMMING TEAM The team had a very enjoyable season this year. Every boy who was on the team learned something about swimming. Most of their practicing was done at the local V. M. C. A. At different times during the season, they went to the Harvard Pool in Cambridge. Although the team did not win ail the meets they entered, there was a fine spirit among them and that is the thing that counts. Kenneth Hall in the two hundred and twenty yard swim. Edward Alther in the breast stroke and the re- lay team performed well at the Havard interscholastics. Melrose defeated the Malden Y. M. C. A. senior team and lost to Andover Academy and Huntington School. With better facilities for swimming the team could have achieved greater success, and they are looking forward to a far better season next year. ( 7 °) BOYS’ BASEBALL Last year the Melrose High School baseball team played only five games with other schools due to the fact that baseball had been discontinued as a var- sity sport. However, the brief schedule was a very successful one as all five games were won by Melrose. Malden was beaten twice and Wakefield, Everett, and Stoneham, once. This year the team should enjoy as much success. There are many veter- ans left from last year. Among them are: Bob Priestly, left field; Bill Sheridan, catcher; Leo Turner, third baseman; George Bonzagni, shortstop; Dick Keadv. who pitched three winning games last year; and other good ball players too nu- merous to mention. Beginning this season on April 29, Melrose meets such teams as Medford, Wakefield, Everett, Malden, Arlington, and probably Lynn English. These games should furnish plenty of excitement for the baseball fans of Melrose. («7i) RIDING CLUB President — Shirley Cole Manager — M ar j or y Gilli n gh am Last fall the Riding Club began its second year with Shirley Cole chosen as president. Every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, members of the club may be seen riding on the bridle paths of the Fells Woods in the fall until the cold weather comes and again in the spring under the able supervision of Ben Crooker from the Melrose Riding Club on Wyoming Avenue or Ted Fillmore from the Whip Hill Club on Perkins Street. There are beginners groups for those girls who do not know how to ride and advanced groups for those who are more ex- perienced. The Riding Club is becoming more and more popular among the girls of the high school and interest will undoubtedly increase from year to year. (‘ 73 ) GIRLS’ SWIMMING CLUB Under the patient and untiring leadership of Miss Sargent and Miss Ken- dall, the Swimming Club approaches the end of its second year. Through the kindness of the Melrose Y. M. C. A., who have given us the privilege of using the pool, all the groups of girls have thoroughly enjoyed themselves. The be- ginners were taught to swim, the middle class to improve their diving and swim- ming, while the advanced proup practiced for interscholastic and class meets. Both class meets were won by the Freshmen. The fine work of Winnie Turner, Jane Fay, Barbara Smith, Helen Barwise, and Connie Smith wiil undoubtedly be missed next year, but with underclassmen such as J. Balfour, E. Harden, H. Richardson, A. Matherson, and V. Smith, we can ge sure the club will keep up the good work. (174) FIELD HOCKEY The Field Hockey team had another successful season maintaining their un- defeated record for the third successive year. All the girls on this year s team were seniors, many of them having been on the team for three years. The first team line-up was: Lucille Colbert, Marjorie Gillingham, Captain Jane Fay, Patricia O’Donnell, Ruth Thayer, Jane Florton, Isabelle Baker, Lois W ildes, Edith Thompson, Helen Barwise, and Shirley Cole. Field Hockey has become a popular sport throughout the school. Home room tournaments were followed by an inter-class series which was won by the Juniors led by Rae Larkin. ( 75 ) GIRLS’ BASKETBALL Despite the changes in the basketball rules this year, that of two court bas- ketball, the majority of past centers and sidecenters found their place as either forward or guard. As usual there was a large response to the first call for bas- ketball this year. The winner of the home room basketball tournament was Room 414. Going one step higher, the interclass basketball was won by the Juniors. The Varsity squad was composed of players participating in these tournaments. Starting out with a defeat, however, did not discourage the varsity squad, for they improved as the season went on. SCHEDULE Winchester 38 Melrose 19 Melrose 20 Alumni 20 Melrose 48 Medford 22 Melrose 29 Lexington 25 Melrose 8 Arlington 12 (176) GIRLS’ TENNIS TEAM The Girls’ Tennis Team is very fortunate to have so near at hand couits on which to practice and to play its matches. Prospects for this season look ei good as there are five girls who were members of last year’s $quad, Margery Hanson (Capt. ), Anne Faden, Frances and 1 hurber Hillers, and Lois ildes. e have two promising players in Dolly Fortier and Ruth Parks. During the gym classes, the girls are allowed to make use of the courts, and this gives the coach opportunity to find new material. When all have “polished up” on their strok- ing. a challenge tournament will be played off to determine the first seven play- ers The 1Q3S schedule includes matches with inchester, Belmont, Arlington, Lexington, Swampscott, and Concord. (• 77 ) GIRLS’ BOWLING During the past two years, bowling has come into prominence in the Mel- rose High School. A number of girls have followed this sport and become quite proficient. Because of the recent introduction of this sport, there have, as yet, been no contests with teams from other schools. All the classes have been en- thusiastic and upheld the organization exceptionally well. Among the high scor- ers are Charlotte Coombs of the Sophomore class, Jean Parrant the Junior class, and Gwen Rogers and Connie Smith of the Senior class. The bowling club, if continued in the same spirit that it has been started, will be able in future years to provide an interesting and profitable sport for girls who do not care for the more active indoor sports. (178) GIRLS’ INTRA-MURAL GAMES For the past three years, under the direction of Miss Sargent, every girl has had the privilege to participate in all sports. Previous to this time, only the girl who had the ability to make a place on a varsity squad had an opportunity to en- joy athletics. Miss Sargent was ably assisted by Miss Kendall and senior girls who volun- teered to help her referee and coach the other participants. During the fall, there was field hockey competition among the homerooms and all four classes. From the homerooms were picked the class teams. These games were full of life, spirit, and sportsmanship whether a game was won or lost. Basketball contests were played the first of the winter months, just as the hockey games were in the fall. Stiff competition took place in all the games as was expected. After iplaying among the girls of our own school, outside games were scheduled. The last of the winter months welcomed volleyball. Every day there were games being played for the championship. The spring will bring intra-mural tennis and baseball. Something new and interesting to the girls was started along with intra- mural sports. This was the girls’ gym team consisting of those girls who en- joyed apparatus and optional work. A gym meet was held for competition be- tween the classes. From these intra-mural games, many girls were found to have ability. There- fore, they were placed on a varsity squad. (i79) GIRLS’ LEAGUE OF ATHLETICS The Girls’ League of Athletics was organized last year for the purpose of pro- moting girls’ athletics, to uphold and carry out the highest ideals of good sports- manship, to cooperate at all times with the Girls’ Physical Education Department, and to foster a spirit of genuine service to the school. All girls who have earned twenty points are eligible to active membership in the League. The work of the club this year was carried on under the direction of the following officers : Presi- dent, Lucille Colbert; Vice-President, Rae Larkin; Secretary, Frances Doyle; Treasurer, Ruth Kiley. The meetings are held regularly at the beginning of every sport season. At this time plans are discussed and schedules arranged for all participation in each sport. At the end of the year a demonstration is given in which all girls take part. The purpose of this is to raise funds for the awards of numerals, letters, and blazers earned by the girls throughout the year. The demonstration this year includes tumbling, apparatus, fencing, tap and modern dancing groups. (180) Class Day Addison Winship Statistician Donald Wetmore Historian Robert Thorn Prophecy Marjorie Park Presentations (182) MARSHAL’S ADDRESS Parents, Teachers, and Friends : It is with a great deal of pleasure that I welcome you here on this Class Day afternoon. At this time it is fitting to note that the Class of 1938 is the largest by far that has ever completed the four years in Melrose High School, and that, from a survey of the present school generation in this city, our record will stand for some time. More noteworthy than our numerical strength is the un- usually high scholastic record of this class. To have a 100% average of A’s for four years is indeed a great and unusual achievement. Yet two of our classmates have realized this honor and many others are to be commended on their outstanding attainments. We wish to express our sincere appreciation to you parents and teachers for your loyal cooperation and guid- ance through our four years in high school. It is with pleasure that we present the following revue of the high- lights of our stay in High School. (183) CLASS ODE 1938 Mistress of learning, pen can never tell Nor speak of half the debt we owe to thee. To thine academic paths, we hid farewell, As we go forth to conquer destiny. With lingering steps we leave thine hallowed halls; Thy corridors are empty of our tread. Spurred on by youth to answer future’s calls, Aflame with thy bright light, we forge ahead. Sparks from thy torch, may we deserve thy flame, May we be torches to extol thy name. R. McIntosh L. Richardson F. Hili.ers (184) CLASS HISTORY Donald Wetmore Father time appears, bent with at e, his beard long and hoary, carrying a rusty scythe, and robed in a voluminous white sheet. Ladies and Gentlemen : I have come out of my long retirement today to reveal to you one of the greatest discoveries of this age. Archaeologists have been digging for some years now on the site where the once proud city of Melrose stood. They have uncovered the remains of the Melrose City Hall, (a wonder- ful piece of architecture, though very archaic to the modern eye), and they have dug up the Mt. Hood Golf Course (which seems to have been dug up a good many times before in its stormy career) ; but they have just now made the great- est discovery of all. Some men with pick axes were digging on the shores of Ell Pond hoping to find skeletons of the bathing beauties who used to swim in those crystal-clear waters, when they accidentally uncoverd the roof of the Melrose High School ! Yes, the Melrose High School had apparently sunk completely out of sight, just as certain people always said it would ! Well, to make a long story short, in the High School office safe, they found the records of just one class preserved. It was apparently the last class before the great cataclysm engulfed the city. So remarkable, however, were its achievements it stands as a model for all time. I shall, therefore, read to you the infinitely precious historical document, the His- tory of the Class of 1938! In the year of our Lord, 1934, a freshman class entered the High School. Like every other freshman class, it wandered around the corridors in a daze for a few months and looked with awe-struck gaze at the lordly sophisticated sen- iors ; but even in this, their first year, they showed great promise. There was the Cloak and Plume Society which gave as its play the “King’s English”. On the stage of the Little Theatre, Lois Wildes, in a pair of green shorts, thrilled her audience, and Douglas Allanbrook in a grass skirt, terrified them ; while Ad- dison W inship and Gardner Whitney offered strong support to the cast. Then in the Masque and Wig Society’s annual play, “The Admirable Crichton”, still re- membered as the best of all Masque and Wig productions, Doris Clinkard beauti- fully acted a leading role, and Earle Rankin launched his career as a comic actor. The operetta, “The Lucky Jade , was greatly aided by Betty Gilmore’s clever and artistic dancing. Not to be forgotten was the freshman football team. It accomplished the unheard of feat for freshmen ; it won a few games. No won- der it was outstanding, for it boasted such heroes as Richard Ready, Laurence Stone, Bob Priestley, Paul Murphy, Richard Folger, and George Bonzagni. Like its football team, the freshman class already loomed as a potential winner. The Class of 1938 became Sophomores with characteristic grace and ease. In a business-like fashion they elected their class officers ; Tyler Peabody, Presi- dent ; Is abelle Baker, Vice-President ; Lois Wildes, Secretary ; and Lucille Col- bert, Treasurer. The clubs were now thrown open to this class, and its mighty influence began to be felt. Laurence Richardson was elected an officer of the Poetry Club; Norma lefts, an officer of the Junior Red Cross; Robert Stiles, Carleton Greene, and Addison Winship officers of the Stamp Club; and Warren (185) Miltimore, officer of the Model Airplane Club. That masterpiece of Latin Jour- nalism, the Nuntius, had a most successful year under the editorship of Robert Stiles, ably assisted by many members of the class. Doris Clinkard again played an important part in the Masque and Wig play, “The Stars May Change”, and Lawrence Richardson was added to the class list of actors. Dave Baker and Priscilla Lacey took important parts in the operetta “Look Who’s Here”. The sophomore athletics were absorbed in the regular teams where they, too, made their influence felt. Some of the former freshmen football team entered their varsity careers. Stanley Phillips became an assistant manager and Leo Turner, Fred Kidd, Laurence Lantz, and Robert Priestley played varsity hockey. The sophomore year ended with high hopes for the future. The Junior year brought increased responsibility and wider participation. Class officers were chosen early. Tyler Peabody was re-elected president ; Isa- belle Baker, vice-president; Lois Wildes, secretary; and Lucille Colbert, treas- urer. Then the committee for that great social event of the ages, the Junior Prom, was chosen. Through the power of the Prom Committee and Lois Y bides’ genius for decorating, the gym was transformed into a dense jungle where, as members of the ape family, class members and their guests gaily cavorted to the music of Ken Reeves’ orchestra. Another event of social importance was the Washington Trip, the purpose of which is, as every one knows, strictly educa- tional! As the junior representatives always far out-number those of the other classes, 1938 must have had great influence on the nation’s capitol. Some there- by account for the recession. The Masque and W ig play, “Philip Goes Forth”, was dominated by this class; Doris Clinkard, Tyler Peabody, Earle Rankin, Douglas Allanbrook, Lawrence Richardson, and Betty Fogg took part in it. “Hollywood bound”, the operetta, had Barbara Brige, Isabelle Baker and George Guibord in its cast. Sports had a good year, and much of that season’s athletic success must be attributed to the class of 1938. Then came the Senior Year and the class to its fullest glory. Class officers were elected for the last time ; Tyler Peabody set a precedent which threat- ened to be a national one ; he was chosen for the third time as president. Rich- ard Folger was chosen for vice-president; Jane Horton, secretary ; William Sher- idan, treasurer. The Log Staff was elected ; and Laurence Lantz became editor- in-chief, Jane Fay, chairman of the literary committee; Donald Moss, chairman of the art committee, and Tyler Peabody, chairman of the advertising committee. The Log Staff had many hectic meetings and finally produced a year book com- bining all the good points of previous Logs and containing biographies of great interest to the future. Drawing its support chiefly from the senior class, the Imprint was founded and, with Robert Bradford as editor, had a most success- ful year. The school newspaper was probably the greatest contribution of the class of 1938 to Melrose High School. The seniors completely controlled the clubs ; David Baker was president of the Euclidean Society ; Eleanor White of the Junior Red Cross; Frances Hillers of the Lens and Shutter; Robert McIn- tosh of the Masque and Wig; Jane Cushman of t he Poetry Club; Shirley Souther of the Crafts Club; John Casey of the Rifle Club; and Evelyn Hall of the Speak- ers’ Bureau. The Athletic prowess of the school was never stronger than in 1938. For the first time in many years, the football team was undefeated, beating Mal- den and Arlington, and becoming virtually state champions. The cross country team, with Richard Hosmer, captain, Robert Toombs, Thomas Hebenton, (186) Charles Benedict, Robert Barrar, Lawrence Stark, and John Mitchell, won the New England Championship. The track team with Dick Ready putting his weight behind the shot, and the tennis team with Charles Loveys, Hallard Kin- nison, Jack Horne, and Carleton Greene added to this fame. The girls made a record too ; their field hockey team was undefeated for three years, under Cap- tain Jane Fay. A successful tennis team boasted as its stars Lois Wildes, Mar- gery Hanson, and Frances and Thurber Hillers. Honor parts went to Cynthia Stanley and Laurence Lantz, Valedictorians, and Jane Fay, Salutatorian. Thus endeth the history of the class of 1938. Further excavations may reveal the histories of other classes and as the cen- turies roll by another civilization may be built on this site. In the life of Father Time a century is like a minute and a thousand years, like an hour; but I can never forget the Melrose High School class of 1938, the most outstanding, the most superior class of the ages! (187) STATISTICS Addi son Winship Good day to you parents and friends who have gathered at this Revue ol Revues. For four years this auspicious looking group of students has advanced with the March of Time, and now we pause momentarily as we are about to bring to a close our High School days, to honor those of us who have proved themselves outstanding. First, however, I will try to acquaint you with the constitutional make-up of the class. Our perfect specimen would stand 5 feet 6 2 inches tall, would tip the scales at 134 pounds 4 ounces, would sport a size 7I 9 shoe, and would cele- brate his eighteenth birthday on December 21, 1938. Whether or not we have a perfect specimen I do not know; but Don Emig, our most popular boy, is practically the acme of all round perfection. Take a bow Don. It was a lucky day for us when Don left Newton in favor of Mel- rose, and it is also all the more to his credit that he has attained such success in the short space of two years. Accompanying Don for first, place honors in popularity is our salutatorian, Jane Fay. Not content with being a high honor student, Jane c ontinued her ac- tivities in athletics and many of our clubs. Her capable leadership of Girls’ Club in the capacity of President was mainly responsible for the successful year which that organization enjoyed. This class contains an abundance of good humor, but none can surpass that of Jane Horton and Robert Thorne. Will you two please rise and exhibit that cheering smile which has won its way into so many of your classmates’ hearts? This pair would certainly make trying company for a pessimist. And now — Whoa, just a minute George! What’s the idea of breaking in late for these class day exercises, Come over here and explain yourself ! This is George Casey, ladies and gentlemen, our least often on time member. Tell me. George, what caused the delay? Honest, Ad — I was only fixing a broken nail ! You were fixing a broken nail?! Sure. — Why G eorge, nails are cheap as dirt ! What kind of a nail was this, any- way ? What kind of nail? Mminni mm — oh yeah. A fingernail. If you haven’t already guessed, folks, George was a leading candidate for least successful bluffer also. Only Richard Munson was better qualified in that field of endeavor. Probably the tops in Dick’s unsuccessful attempts at bluffing was the time he told Mr. Wilder he was late because he had a flat tire and couldn’t make it ! (188) Our most successful bluffer is Mr. Francis Mahoney. Evidently Danno is a past master at pulling the wool over one’s eyes, but I think his true ability must be somewhat in the fog, for he also received no small number of votes for least successful bluffer. Will those sitting near Irene Fahey and Henry Rowe kindly assist them to their feet? Irene and Henry are our most bashful members, but I’m sure they will smile nicely for you now. Oops — pardon me, they’ve already disappeared. Our class has the distinction of having a quartet of athletes of which any school would be envious, namely: Robert Priestley, Fred Kidd, William Sheri- dan, and Leo Turner. These four boys were the mainstays of our remarkable football team, believed by many to be the state champions. All were picked on at least one of the various all scholastic teams. Each has continued his athletic activities in other sports. Leo, since you were selected by the narrow margin of two votes as our most athletic boy, will you please step forward and honor us with a word or two. I know you would like to talk about all sports, Leo, but I think a word or two about football eleven would be in order. Just what do you think was the biggest thrill you got out of last fall’s cam- paign ? I think it was watching Kidd snag passes in that Arlington game. And where was your vantage point, Gassy ? Vantage point! It’s a disadvantage playing bench for a couple 200 pound- ers ! Our athletes are not limited to boys alone, however. Lucille Colbert has overwhelmingly been selected our most athletic girl. Presenting herself here should not be hard for Lu, for a sister before her has likewise been honored. Will Barbara Daniels please stand? Her composed air has already given her away ; — yes, Barb is the most dignified in our class. Getting away from dignity, I find that Margaret Kiley is our class giggler. Will you laugh your way to attention, Margaret? That’s fine; now you may re- turn to your friends before they miss your amiable company. At this time a word of recognition should go to Tyler Peabody, our class president. For four years, Ty has been a friend to all. For three years, he has been our leader. His fine scholastic record, plus his leadership in outside activi- ties, form some of the best all-round records of the class. Richard Mack has been selected as our best looking boy, our class ladies’ man, and the most fastidious. Rise and shine, Buzz, and show our audience that even Hollywood doesn’t have everything, for when looks, fastidiousness, and an appeal to the fairer sex are all found in the same person, well — that’s the reason Sam Goldwyn hires talent scouts. Representing the weaker sex in attractiveness is Mary Louise Baier. Al- though the class has voted blond as the favorite hair color, Meryl is a brunette, which goes to show that both sides have their points. (189) Will all you boys try to look as predominant as possible while William Watts rises? Bill is our class womanhater, so girls, you too may cooperate by looking as inconspicuous as possible. I’ll wager Barbara Perry just received the shock of her life. You didn’t know there was such a thing as a woman-hater, did ' you, Barb? Well, anyway, that leaves new fields to conquer. You see, folks, Barb is the class flirt. Gordon Holman, will you please prepare to show the audience why you have been selected as our most original member? Hattie has received this honor be- cause of the many fads he has started during the past four years. One in par- ticular had a distinct aroma, but look, here he is now. (Enter Gordon Holman, dressed in green pants, pink vest, orange socks and plaid tie.) Yes, he actually wore that colorful conglomeration to school. Lawrence Orne is our class genius on the strength of his amplifying inven- tion which is now being studied in Bell System Laboratory. May he be another Edison. Laurence Lantz has been selected as the most likely to succeed. Bud, your record speaks for itself. 1 sincerely hope this class has not predicted in vain. Your scholastic record, climaxed by the Valedictory, plus your fine hockey record forms a record seldom if ever equalled. Betty Gilmore and Harold Locke, will you please trip to your feet. Pete and Bud are our best dancers, and in this day of swing fever, such an honor is not easily gained. While on the subject of swing, I would like to present our swing fan, Alan Thayer. A1 says he is neither a jitterbug or an iekey, but just an ardent alligator. Now will Lawrence Richardson, our class poet, please rise? When but a freshman, Lawrence astounded pupils and pedagogues alike with an outburst of blank verse which invariably found its way into the pages of our school publica- tion. He was also voted our class saint, but from some reports, there is a dis- tinct misunderstanding as to his actually possessing this trait. Laurence Stone of football fame has talked and joked his way ino the posi- tions of exaggrator and wit respectively. Rocky certainly has broken up more than one class with his acting-up. Speaking of acting, he has also won his spurs on the stage. Will Cynthia Stanley, our Valedictorian, please rise? Cynthia is our class grind, yet there is only one difference between Cynthia and the rest of us. She believes in studying, and does it; we believe in studying, and don’t do it. Seri- ously, though, Cynthia’s fine record certainly speaks for her scholastic aptitude. Earle Rankin and Doris Clinkard have been practically unanimously elected our class actor and actress respectively. Those of you who have seen them in High School productions will agree that both have a promising future on the stage. Earle has prepared a short monologue for us. It’s all yours, Earle. (Enacts Humorous Passage From Mark Twain’s Works). Thank you, Earle. Will Carolyn Lyford please stand? Don’t look now, folks, hut I’ll bet Car- olyn is blushing. You guessed right — she’s the class blusher, the advantage of which is her usually being “in the pink”. Our class pals are Betty Gilmore and Natalie Baxter. Four years of seeing these neighbors together has led us to automatically associate one with the other. And now, ladies and gentlemen, Marcia Aechtler. our class songstress, has kindly consented to sing the class’ favorite song, Hoagy Carmichael’s immortal “Stardust”, for us. We haven’t our favorite orchestra, Benny Goodman’s, to play, but a quartet from the band has offered to assist. Take it away, Marcia! (Sings chorus of “Stardust”) Thank you, Marcia, Thank you. And that, folks, is your Revue of Revues. I sincerely wish I could tell you more of the achievements of our class, but an end must come to all things. And so, with the heartiest good-wishes of the class, I bid you good-day. PROPHECY R. W. Thorn The fortune teller enters dressed i)i a turban and a flowing robe carrying a pack of cards. He sits at a table covered by a bright cloth. After placing the cards on the table, and waring his hands over them, lie says, “La, il la ha, il al- low wu’ mahammed rassulu allow’’ . He is now l isited by the prophetic elements. “With these magic words, my mystic cards reveal the future of the illus- trious class of 1938. By the turning of the first card, we are immediately whisked to the office of the New York Times. Here we find Laurence Lantz as editor- in-chief with Robert Bradford and Robert Stiles acting as associate editors. The office of business manager is held by that efficient person, Robert Wad- land, who has Herbert Hamilton, Burton Coffin, and Shirley Wells, as able assistants. There too, we have that ever-ready star group of female report- ers, among whom we find Betty Fallon, Edith Thompson, Marjorie Tobey, Sylvia Roberts, Eloise Barber, Henrietta Woodward, Blanche Harry, Mary Hugo, and Eleanor Hewitt. My next card takes us out to sea, and aboard the S. S. “Boston” battleship. In command is Admiral Richard Mack giving orders, to his female crew. My, how times do change ! First mate, Mary Louise Baier, passes the commands to Second mate, Jane Horton, who in turn passes them, to Third mate, “Nat” Chaissong, and so on down the line of officers. Others of the crew, dressed in their crispy, blue middies are Margaret Traquair, Irene Crease, Dorothy Gibbons, Audrey Goodwin and Marjorie Dyer. Into the field of sports we enter with this one. I see, those two well-known golf pros. Ed” Franzeim, and “Bob” Widdowson winning the Olympic match of 1950. Another Olympic star is Lois ildes, who wins her tennis match 6-0, 6-0, 6-0. Others waiting in line to compete are “Charlie” Loveys, Marjorie Hanson, Francis and Thurber Hillers, “Bob” Munroe, Dorothy Fletcher, and “Jack” Horne. In addition to the outstanding sportsmen and sportswo- men, there are also the champion athletic teams of the day. The world’s cham- pion football team consists of Robert Priestly, Bill” Sheridan Fred” Kidd, Leo Turner, “Dick” Folger, “Will” Lever, “Dick” Keady, Leonard Norke- vitch, Paul Murphy, David Baker, and “Georgif.” Hecht. Playing with the World’s Series Champions is Paul Dwyer. Many of the weaker sex have hit their mark in sports. Playing field-hockey are Isabelle Baker, Shirley Cole, Lucille Colbert, “Connie” and Barbara Smith, Helen Barwisf.. Ruth Thayer, Grace Waystack, and “Pat” O’Donnell. Enough for these. Now let us see what the next card shows. This time the cards show me a small flower shop with some of your celebri- ties engaged in running a very profitable business. And why not ? This shop is bound to be a success because it is run by none other than your football bone- crusher, Laurence Stone! I see that his specialty is raising flowers for (192) “Rock(y)” gardens. Others of your class who have a certain delicate touch, and because of their size were not able to do heavier work are Richard Hosmer, Thurston Plantinga, and George Bonzagni. As we look around, we see “Joe” Cefalo busily working out in the hot-honses. We wonder if he is the only one who works? Flashing lights, dancing girls, and swing music ! Right — we’re on Broad- way. The swing music comes from the swingiest of swing bands, which is led by Alan “Benny Goodman” Thayer. Among this mixed group of musicians are Leo Lessard, Dorothy Scoboria, Mary Johns, Macauley Ward, and “Hal” Kinnison. The singers who travel with this troop are Marcia Aech- tler and George Guibord. Many, however, are busily rehearsing for Richard Chipchase’s operetta. The leads in this performance are taken by Barbara Bridge, “Don” Emig, and Addison Winsiiip. Specialties are dene by: “Nat” Baxter, Betty Gilmore, and “Stan” Phillips. Others who have risen to glory, and who are supporting the cast are Frank Amazeen, Dorothy Cilley, Jean Cairns, Robert Cain, Mabel Holland, Eleanor Mitchell, Alice Titcomb, Dorothy Spadafora, and Frances Marriott. Don’t miss this five star show! From Broadway we are now taken to Chicago, not anywhere in Chicago, but to the main office of the M. and M. Steel Corporation. Of course the M. and M. stands for the Co-Presidents, who are none other than Mr. Francis Ma- honey, and Mr. Robert Morrell. I think “Bob” is the more efficient, since your friend “Mahon” is usually in more or less of a “Fogg”. It is easily seen that this is an ideal company to work for since everyone is an officer. The vice- presidents are Edward Alther, Lawrence Byrne, Gordon Holman, John Sullivan, and Stanley Harrow. For assistant vice-presidents this concern has employed Philip Payson, Robert Wentzel, John Casey, Richard John- son, Ronald Kinville, Steadman Howard, Harold Parsons, and Stuart Haines. Then there is always the office that everyone wants to hold, that of treasurer. These fortunate ones are “Fred” Kirmes, Thomas Hebenton, Leonard IIowe, John Murphy, Kenneth Lindberg, Roger Parker, Robert Moore, James Sims, and James McDonald. Well, this must be the company to work for, except one thing. Some of you other men who are thinking of apply- ing for work here, want to take into consideration that there are no women em- ployed here. The mystic spirit wonders what the presidents could have been thinking of ? Parlez-vous Hancais? Better brush up on your French, because now we are taken to that city of fashions, Paris. While we are here let’s look into the most exclusive gown shop of the world. I set three of your famous class-mates who are leading dress designers of Paris. There they are “Eddie” Crowley, John Mitchell, and Thomas Meagher. My, my, what interesting work! Interest- ing indeed, for look who is modeling the newest creations. They are : “La Petite Blonde”. “Margie” Preece, Marion Savage, Louise Smith, Thyra Nicker- son, “Dot” Karnheim, Frances Fairbanks, Janet Shrader, and Barbara Gott. I see more of your friends in this land of the 50 million Frenchmen. Here are the girls who are operating “Ye Chick Chapeau Shoppe” : Dorothy Connor- ton, Barbara Grady, Shirley Eaton, Barbara Derby, Jane Cushman, Ce- celia Doucette, Ardel Anderson, Phyllis Clark, Gwendolyn Rogers, Vir- ginia Brooks, and Frances Fairweather. Do not let it be said that Paris is backward when it comes to the newest in- ventions. For, now the women have their faces altered to coincide with the style of their dress. What the women won’t go through to impress the men! This new beauty shop has the most outstanding conveniences for its patrons, such as, “Work done while you wait”, and “We do the lifting, you do the looking on”. This height of modernization may be attributed to “Midge” Gillingham. Among her able assistants are Dorothy Wilkins, Ruth Norton, Mary Little, Mar- gery Crawford, Bertha Anderson, Shirley Guertin, Phyllis Lewis, Ma- belle Porter, Dorothy Pulsifer, and Phyllis Towner. Now, I see another famous city of Europe. This time it is Venice, the city of canals. Douglas Curtis sees a great future here, as he has established quite a business in the line of transportation. Instead of the slow moving gondolas, Doug” has a speed-boat taxi service. His taxi-boat drivers are Frank Conant, “Dan” Galvin, William Etsell, Edward Henderson, Paul Ebert, Warren Miltmore, “Fred” Ward, John Whitman, Howard Rust, and George Calt. Passengers should have no fear, because that always alert watch-out man, Rod- ney Critchett, shouts, “Passenger ovei-board!” whenever he sees a person fall out., So you see, these new conveyances are the last word for the occupants. Now, we leave the Western Hemisphere to return again to the States. This card presents a picture of the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota. Here we pay our r espects to the men and women in white.” As the greatest surgeons, nurses, and specialists I see Cynthia Streeter, Carlton Greene, Barbara Daniels, and Ethel Humphrey. In addition to those of the medical line, there is Robert “Doc” Marr who is a dental specialist. Others who have devoted their lives to aiding the public are Frances Mahoney, Martha Atwood, Ed- ward Brigham, Joseph Contreas, Irene Fahy, John Griffin, Charlotte Holmes, Walter Kneeland, and Shirley Smith. Ah ! now I see that person with the never-ending patience, shouting, “Si- lence ! Action! Camera!” Yes, it is Director Donald Wetmore, who is in charge of the coming hit of the year, “She Stole My Heart and All My Money” or “I Should Have Bet on the Fifth to Win”. The leading parts in this stirring- love drama are taken by Doris Clinkard, Earle Rankin, Robert McIntosh, and the villain, Lawson Bishop. Others who possess the ability to act are the actors and actresses, Shirley Anderson, Alan Balfour, Marjorie Emery, Betty Fogg, Allen Copeland, Barbara Irons, Richard Hadley, Marian Hoyt, and Marion Prohl. Also on the set are camera-men, Charles Curran, and “Joe” Meharg. As we leave the set, a picture of a huge mansion and estate comes into view. This $500,000 home belongs to one of the screen’s most dra- matic actors; it is your friend, “Art” Langley. Mr. Langley seems to be hav- ing a week-end party, and we see many of his class-mates present. Strolling across the velvet-like lawn are Elizabeth Knight, Lois Hutchinson, John David Hall, Marion Guptill, Raymond Greenlaw, John Parker, and John Manning. Over there sitting on the terrace sipping tea are Mathew Musial- owski, Norma Thorndike, and Marguerite Melzar. Well, Hollywood must be left now, as we are called onward by the magic elements. Well, well, well! Perhaps you didn’t realize it, but you have friends, who are going to become the leading politicians of 1950. I see Washington, D. C., and there behind their respective desks sit senators, Frank Eich, Francis Forbes, John Deasy, Condon Beauchamp, and George Chisholm. What is this ? O, a row of bald heads ! These shining domes belong to representatives John De La Plaine Hall, Albert Isaksen, John Lavender, Richard Lee, ( Burton Nowell, Thomas Mullane, and James Melville. Remember these gentlemen ; they may be a great help to you. Still in Washington, only this time we have gone from the Capitol to the Congressional Library where that imposing volume, “Who’s Who of 1950” is found. Hmmm, the “B’s”. Yes! Here is Frederick Beckwith, author of many excellent books. Ah! “Charlie” Benedict has set the world’s record for cross-country running. Still in the “B’s” is David Boyce, a world wide explorer. Next is Alden Caesar, who is a famous physician in Europe. Here are those million-dollar playboys: “Bill” Casey and “Dick” Cameron. Next, we find four young women who have gained recognition through their ability to write poetry; namely, Madeline Chaffee, Phyllis Chase, Frances Churchill, and Audrey Cole. As the page turns, those appear who have devoted their lives tC ' promoting education; they are Gertrude Dumais, Mary Fahy, Mary Dris- coll, and Gertrude Dostmann. A specialist of wide renown is Dr. Edward Edwards. Now, four more girls who are entertainers. These lively, attractive girls who travel in a group are Florence Guptill, Jean Hadley, Evelyn Hall, and Marion Hattie. Other famous members of your class, who have all ex- celled in their chosen fields of work are “Peggy” Hyde, Norma Jefts, Marif. Jenkins, the three Jones girls, Paula, Ruth, and Pauline, Lillian Kear- ney, Betty Kerr, and Margaret Kiley. Now, we leave this notable library where we found this book. This time, we are taken further south into Louisiana. Here, Lois Long is managing a peanut farm which was willed to her. There, on bended knee, pluck- ing peanuts are Katharine Little, Eileen Madden, Florence Parkman, Beatrice Page, Mavis Milano, Lillian Saterlay, Betsy Sprague, and Dor- othy Shea. This next picture which comes to me is one of excitement, chills, and spills ! It is a six-day bike race. Among those fearless, brave competitors we recognize Harold Locke, John Lux, Maynard Meservey, Arthur Peverly, Edward Ramsey, Herbert Reynolds, Edwin Vickery, Bernard and Patrick Walsh, and William and Gardner Whitney. In the eager audience, we see many fair damsels among whom we recognize Evely ' n Wills, Natalie Westcott, Mae Wadman, Edith Littlefield, Marion Meader, June Lockhart, Estelle Noonan, Helen Lord, and Elinor Macneil. This time, the card pictures a group of optimistic searchers. The place, any place in the antarctic. The time: January 14, 1950 — 5:32 P. M. The reason: they are seeking a red-winged penguin for which our animal lover, Francis Ro- berts has offered $100,000. The people trying for this sum are Phyllis Pierce, Ruth Sullivan, Eleanor Slesser, Elmer Williams, Marjory Weeks, “Ray” Washburn, Miriam Sears, Cynthia Stanley, Norman Ring, and Phyllis Preble. The mystic spirit wishes you good luck ! (195) The last card takes us from the north pole to Central Africa, where there is a group which is furthering etiquette among the savages. This ambitious and daring party consists of Alice Simpson, Natalie Smith, Mary Lowell, Doris Mackernan, Marjory Park, Barbara Maskell, “Bob” Waddick, Henry Young, Eleanor White, Addison inship, Gertrude Niles, and Laurence Shea. Now, you have heard, and you should not doubt, because the cards do not lie. The mystic spirits wish good luck to each member of the class of 1938.

I know that I am ex- pressing the sentiments of everyone of us when I say that we are proud and happy to have you here. We should be ungrateful, indeed, if we did not feel so. We can never forget that whatever rewards and honors we receive on this oc- casion or on any other occasion of our lives must be shared with you. For it is you who have made it possible for us to ibe here, you who have encouraged us when we might have faltered, inspired us when we might have failed.

The Constitution — Its Genesis Had those brave soldiers who perished in the Revolution given their lives in vain? Was the sound of that “shot heard round the world” to die away com- pletely? Would America go cowering back under European yoke again? These questions were running through the minds of such heroes as Washington, Ham- ilton, Franklin, and Madison during that critical period following the Revolu- tion. The situation was becoming more trying every day. To remedy this state of affairs, some sort of document would soon have to be drawn up limiting and defining the powers of both the central and state governments. The Continental Congress, which had been the first independent governing body in the United States, was not sufficient. It had held the states loosely to- gether during the Revolution, but was nevertheless considered only as a coopera- tive agency for thirteen sovereign states. It had no claim on the direct allegiance of any citizen. Its members had had no experience in running legislative meet- ings, and their extreme fears and jealousies prevented them from realizing the advantages of concentrated power. The Congress was financially weak, since it could not tax the people. Furthermore, so much paper money was issued that it soon became worthless. Continental currency could be purchased at a dollar a bushel ; hence the phrase, “not worth a continental”. The Articles of Confederation, the next attempt at unification, were ratified by 1781. According to the Articles, the states entered into a league of friendship with each other. The freemen of each state were entitled to the privileges and immunities of freemen elsewhere. Mutual extradition of criminals was estab- lished, and the records, acts, and judicial proceedings of each state were ac- cepted with full faith and credit by the others. This universal intercitizenship was the only provision which gave unity to the United States. The rest of the Articles was given over to the theory that each state was a sovereign, merged somewhat in a larger political body. Not even for the regular and ordinary business of raising money to carry on the government could a sin- gle step be taken without the consent of at least nine of the thirteen states. Thus, the federal and state governments worked together, dividing the power in such a way that the least amount of work was accomplished with the maximum of effort expended. The Articles left Congress nothing more than a position as the deliberative head of a league. The power of taxation was not given to this body. It could not even force requisitions for money or troops from the mem- bers of the Confederacy. Moreover, the states shared with Congress the power of coining money, emitting bills of credit, and of making promissory notes a le- gal tender for debts. In such a condition a united front could scarcely be pre- sented to foreigners in commercial relations. Love of union, as a sentiment, was unheard of in that era. Everywhere there were Pennsylvanians, New Yorkers, and Virginians, but very few Ameri- cans. The men of 1783 dwelt in a straggling series of republics, fringing the At- lantic coast, almost all of them at odds with one another over boundaries, tariff, land claims, or commerce. In fact, the Revolution had come near to failure simply through the difficulty of securing concerted action. Moreover, lack of communications tended to separtae different sections, SO ' that each one considered itself apart from the rest. Uprisings in different states, such as the Shay’s re- bellion in Massachusetts, and the .driving of Congress out of Philadelphia, were not at all uncommon. Two main ideas emerged as solutions to this perplexing problem of gov- erning the country. At one extreme were the men who wished to have a strong central government with the states completely dissolved in it. They saw no fu- ture for the country unless the states would give up their powers. The argument of these men w r as that the latter would soon separate entirely into thirteen differ- ent nations, thereby leaving themselves easy prey to any power. On the other hand, there were men who insisted that the state administrations be all powerful and the central government more or less an afterthought. As colonies the states had had experience with a strong, central government at the hands of England, the result being the tyrannical rule of George the Third. Their memories of this despotic rule were too great to allow another government of this type to be built up in America. A medium between these two extremes had to be reached if the United States was to continue independently. Some sort of sound government had to be organized, not only to save the states from external enemies, but also’ to prevent internal strife. The Annapolis convention, later adjourned to Philadelphia, ac- complished this aim. Although the convention had been called to revise the Ar- ticles of Confederation, it achieved a far greater end. It created a new instru- ment of government. By the Revolutionary War, the thirteen colonies had been welded into a nation; to that nation the Constitution gave a soul. (206 ' THE CONSTITUTION— ITS MAKERS Laurence A. Lantz “Something must be done to preserve the results and sacrifices of the Re- volution’’ . . . With these words James Madison sounded the keynote of the Fed- eral Convention of fifty-five patriots that met in Philadelphia 150 years ago, fifty- five men, neither blind theorists nor idle dreamer?, but practical men who were setting out to build a practical constitution. Instead of reason they used the lamp of experience as their guide, considering every government in every land from the beginning of written history. Not only experience entered into this learned group, however, but also the priceless treasures of liberty of action, con- science, and character. The present generation is becoming more and more interested in the per- sonal character of these men and the part they played in the government estab- lished for the United States. Therefore, to approach a consideration of the Constitution with a fair degree of intelligence, it is necessary for us to have in mind clearly and definitely the type of delegates and the principles by which each was motivated. The splendid men who framed the Constitution were an interesting set of patriots. Radical and practical, good natured and disagreeable, handsome and homely, unselfish and greedy, rich and poor, eloquent and hesitant .... these groups of antonyms show a few of the outstanding differences in character that had to be reconciled. To go in detail for each and every man is impossible, yet let us consider a few of our notable forefathers who did a great deal towards the building of our Constitution. As one looks over the list of delegates, he is attracted by the name of El- bridge Gerry. Mr. Gerry was an upright man, a gentleman in his principles and manners. In appearance he was short and dapper and was quite the ladies’ man, “rempli de petites finesses”, according to an ardent French admirer. In spite of these attributes, Gerry was an able politician and took an active part in the Revo- lution and Constitutional Conventions. These affairs presented great opportun- ity for profiteering, and he was strongly opposed to it and did much to thwart it whenever possible. Because he was such an able and honest man, Gerry was appointed as a dele- gate to the Annapolis Convention, but he refused the appointment. The follow- ing year he became a member of the Federal Convention at Philadelphia. There, although he was among the most experienced and active delegates, he was not among the most useful because of his inconsistency. Despite his fear of tyranny and a powerful army and navy, he favored a strongly centralized National Gov- ernment. In addition, although he realized that this strong central government must come of compromise, and although he continually preached com- promise in the convention, he opposed the Constitution in its final form as “full of vices”. He was chairman of the “great compromise” and early came out in favor of the Virginia Plan, but lie let his aversion to democracy and jealousy of power overrule his better reasoning. Since he opposed the Constitution because it did not agree with his own theoretical republicanism, Gerry’s vacillating man- ners left a bad impression on his associates. Both the ratification of the Con- stitution and the loss of several friends left him in a gloomy state of mind; vet his efforts were not a total loss, for several of his suggestions are embodied in this greatest of documents. Among the Connecticut delegates to the Convention was that odd Mew Eng- lander, Roger Sherman, a deep and comprehensive old fox. Simple and unas- suming, Mr. Sherman was grotesque and laughable, yet deserves infinite praise, for no one had a clearer head nor a kinder heart than he. He was renowned for the fact that he seldom failed to accomplish an object started. Roger Sherman was the leader of those who recognized the need of com- promise between factions, delegates, and the States. He ardently agreed that Congress should be master over the individual states without despoiling them of their own personal right to regulate laws that did not conflict with the National Government. As the mainspring of his ideal central government, he desired a two-fold Congress elected by the state legislatures, an idea that he set forth as the Connecticut Plan. By thus furnishing thoughts that were ever wise and use- ful, Roger Sherman contributed to the progress of the Constitution. When we speak of the progress of the Constitution, we cannot help recalling to mind the “master builder of the Constitution, James Madison of Virginia. Here in this genius was a small man with a great mind, able, industrious, confi- dent, and above all devoted to the interests of his beloved country. At that meet- ing of the best minds of the day, he showed his superiority by a remarkable abil- ity to grasp the historical and legal significance of any piece of legislation. Mr. Madison contributed the most constructive material of any delegate in the Convention. His greatest contribution was the threefold system of govern- ment, legislative, judicial, and executive. While presenting this plan, he stated that each branch should be independent of the other. The fact that Washington in his “Farewell Address” most solemnly warned against the encroachment of one department on another illustrates the foresight of this most learned man. Thus, the men who wrote the Constitution approached the problems of gov- ernment in an analytical manner in terms of plan, purposes, powers, and re- straints, believing that if they could make a well devised plan and dedicate it to wise purposes, vest it with proper powers, and curb those powers with well bal- anced restraints, the results would be “blessings of liberty and opportunities for the people living under a government so conceived. (208) THE CONSTITUTION— ITS RATIFICATION Cynthia R. Stanley The Constitution, as it was finally assembled, was by no means a divine in- spiration but the result of hard struggle and compromise on the part of its fram- ers and its ratifiers. Although there were a few points which were unanimously agreed upon, in general the Constitutional Convention was one long series of de- bates and compromises. As soon as the convention was organized, Governor Randolph of Virginia opened the main business by presenting the ‘ Virginia Plan”, which had been pre- pared largely by Madison. It provided for a legislature of two houses, the mem- bership ot both to be based upon population, the lower house to be elected by the people, the upper one to be elected by the lower. There was to be a national executive with the power of veto over Congress and a national judiciary to be se- lected by Congress. It provided too that officers of the states should be “bound by oath to support the articles of Union”. This plan was the germ of the Con- stitution of the United States. For its form it went back to the Colonial state governments and for its powers to the lessons of war and later experiences. In order to enforce the idea of the Virginia plan three resolutions were introduced by Gouverneur Morris, which declared that a federal union of individual sover- eigns was not sufficient; that a “national Government ought to be established, consisting of a supreme Fegislative, Executive, and Judiciary”. Meanwhile, those who, in their desire to preserve the powers of the States, feared a strong central government had been devising an alternative plan, which was introduced by Paterson of New Jersey. This plan was merely a slight im- provement of the old Articles of Confederation. W hile it granted to Congress the power to levy an impost and to regulate foreign and interstate commerce, it did not agree to distribute power on the basis of population but demanded that every state have equal representation in Congress. The battle between the large and the small states threatened to disrupt the convention. But out of the chaos emerged a compromise, suggested by the deputies from Connecticut. It provided that representation in the lower house be based upon population and that that house should have the exclusive right to originate money bills ; but in the upper house each state was to have an equal vote. During the discussion of this important question developed the contro- versy between the North and South. Since population had been substituted for wealth as the basis of representation, the South demanded that its slaves be counted as population, although in the eyes of the law and of the North they were property. Here again, after bitter arguments, which foreshadowed the Civil W ar, compromise came to the rescue. It was agreed that three-fifths of the slaves should be counted as inhabitants. The South was also disturbed on another point. It feared that complete control of foreign commerce by the central govern- ment would result in navigation acts unfavorable to its solidly agricultural sec- tion. This question was solved, at least for the time being, by leaving to Con- gress unrestricted control of commerce but forbidding an export tax or interfer- ence with the slave trade for twenty years. At length out of dark days of controversy and brighter days of compromise (209) emerged the Constitution. On that September day in the old state house in Phil- adelphia the framers of the Constitution signed their names with mingled hopes and misgivings. None was completely satisfied with the result of their labors ; all feared that even if ratified it would not work. But the principles which the Constitution contained were good ones, and those men in their wisdom had added one clause to the Constitution which, more than any other, made it work. This clause proclaimed that the Constitution, and the laws and treaties of the na- tional government were the supreme law of the land, anything to the contrary in state laws or Constitutions notwithstanding. This clause was the correction of the chief weakness of the Articles of Confederation. It is this clause which has made national and state governments run smoothly together and so caused our system of government to become an object of wonder to the statesmen of the world. The Constitution completed, there still remained the process of ratification. It was decided by the convention that the Constitution should be first submit- ted to the Continental Congress and then to special state conventions to be chosen by the people. For the purpose of sending out the Constitution supported by ap- parent unanimity, the document was concluded wdth, “Done in Convention by the unanimous consent of the States present’’. It was then submitted to Con- gress, which, in turn, w ith no comment, turned it over to the states. Now began another hard struggle, and nowhere was the battle fiercer than in Massachusetts. There was a prevailing fear that a strong central government would end in a ty- ranny such as they had so recently fought to overthrow. The State was jealous of its sovereignty. It pointed out that the Constitution contained no bill of rights protecting the life, liberty, and property of its citizens. There was also sectional antagonism. In the Massachusetts convention were two men without whose influence success for the Federalists was next to impossible. One was Governor John Hancock, who, though chosen chairman of the convention, did not at first attend the sessions, being confined at home with an attack of the gout, which some of his friends thought would disappear as soon as one side or the other began to win. But he was finally won over to the side of the Federal- ists by the promise of political honors. The other man whose influence was needed was that great politician, Samuel Adams. He was sincerely in doubt and refrained from taking part in the discussion, but when the majority began to favor ratification, he joined their ranks. The one thing which turned the tide of affairs in Massachusetts and led to ratification by other states was a letter from W ashington, which suggested that they might ratify the Constitution and then demand amendments. Following this suggestion, Massachusetts ratified, at the same time recommending certain amendments. 1 he other states which had not as yet ratified followed her example. In every state, however, the struggle was .bitted and the majority slight. Perhaps the most serious objection to the Constitution w r as its lack of a bill of rights. To meet this objection, James Madison drew up twelve amendments, which were submitted to the first Congress, ten of which were adopted. Taken as a whole, they constitute a limitation upon national power. They assure to the people the right to trial by jury and to a redress of grievances. 1 hey prevent the central government from depriving the people of their personal liberties, such as the liberty of speech, of religion, and of the press. In short, the Bill of Rights secured the people against oppression by the government which they were found- ing. (210) The Constitution of the United States, in spite of the trepidations of the framers and of the people, has for one hundred and fifty years been the basis of a successful government, a government whose power has not arisen from brute force ibut from its success in perpetuating American liberty by establishing a firm Union of the States. The Constitution has come to be looked upon as one of the greatest documents in the history of the world. It is now the fundamental law r of the oldest republic on earth. The Constitution has succeeded because it is based upon certain immutable truths, which stand the test of time, war, and depression. So long as American sons are worthy of their forefathers, who had the wisdom to plan for the ages, the Constitution will live and gain new splendor as the years roll on. (211) VALEDICTORY C ynthia Stanley Girls of the Graduating Class: The most important .event in our lives thus far is taking place tonight. Our graduation signifies something more than the completion of our High School Course. Until now we have lived in the shelter of home and school. Our par- ents and our teachers have guided us and tried to prepare us for the future. They have done their best ; now it is our responsibility to carry on and prove ourselves worthy of their sacrifices and their labor. But this is not all. We must realize as we step out into this constantly changing world that we cannot follow a stereotyped course of action as did young ladies of years gone by. Their chief objectives were matrimony, home- making, and social success. These were all admirable ambitions. Woman today can have no more glorified career than that of homemaker and mother. But other occupations and professions are open to us in the economic world, in political fields, and in general social service. W oman’s place in the world today is every- where; therefore her responsibilities are tremendous; her problems multitudinous. Men, we grant, are the stronger sex. But women, I think the men will grant, set the ideals and the standards of morals and manners. Let us set those ideals and standards high and tenaciously hold to them. Let us teach, influence, and guide the future generation as it is permitted only women to do. VALEDICTORY Laurence A. Lantz Boys of the Graduating Class: The moment has arrived when vve must leave this friendly circle of class- mates and faculty to enter into a constantly changing world. We have prepared ourselves for this occasion throughout these years of education. This world is now in a social and economic chaos that at present is creating a forbidding atmos- phere. A deficiency of. capital has caused a lack of positions in the business world, a fact that calls upon graduating students for a good education, a strong character, and above all courage to face this situation. No matter what may con- front us in the future years, character and courage will carry us through to the brighter period that is bound to come. Our parents and faculty have done their best to furnish us with a firm basis of character and knowledge ; now we must provide the courage and aggressiveness necessary to make our lives successful. The matter rests squarely upon us as individuals ; let us live up to the faith of those whose devotion has carried us thus far along in life.
