Class History 1932-the year that African miners found a 726-karat diamond, Roosevelt was elected president for the first time, and four of this year's graduating class entered Moses Brown. In 1945 Bill Dunbar, Bill Lindblad, jack Merchant, and Wilson Utter ended careers in Moses Brown which began on that distant day in '32 when first they gazed on Miss Woodbury's kindly face. johnny Pitts was also a member of that group, but his yearning for learning led him to skip a grade and graduate in 1944. Here in the pre-primary, as Miss Wood- bury patiently explained the mysteries of block-piling and picture-CPD-drawing, the foundation was laid for our future educa- tion. Here also we made acquaintance with the drama, jack Merchant being an un- willing Goldilocks in that super-colossal production, The Three C35 Bears. The next fall in the honored position of first- graders we moved upstairs, where we met Sears Ingraham. Under the wise guidance of Miss Eastman we learned the rudiments of the three R's, as well as a smattering of Mother Nature's secrets, while our dramatic offering of that year was the culinary fantasy The Gingerbread Man. In the second primary Dave Jencks and Red Lownes joined our group in time to learn from Miss Crawford such complicated mathematical problems as one times one is one. Miss Buffum came to instruct us in the use of crayon and brush, while Madame Warge added to our feeling of importance by introducing us to French, alternately threatening to spank us on our little behinds and claiming proudly that we were the best class she'd ever had. COh, Madame, I bet you say that to all the boys D Miss Wilson guided our class, which now included Nate Fales, through the third primary, introducing us to Bozo, the Woodchuck, manual training, and the art of weaving. The class had a big laugh one day during a penmanship lesson when jay l 27 Skinner signed his name as jay Skinman- ship. That year was notable also because we had real afternoon classes for the first time. Much to our disgust we had to sew our own costumes for our assembly, in which Willie Utter played the part of The Little Rabbit Who Wanted Red Wings. Bursting with pride, we entered the First Intermediate, where Miss Pixley C'Pix- ilated ,we called herb read us the ever- suitable Dorna. For the first time our history was marred by sabotage when Sears Ingraham set fire to the shavings from the pencil sharpener with his burning- glass. Since travel broadens the mind, we traveled over to the Second Intermediate room in the main building to drop a close decision in a hard-fought spelling bee, and Bill Dunbar had the class out to his grand- father's plant, where we were properly awed by the noisy machinery. For our assembly that year our travel-broadened minds, years ahead of their time, conceived a pageant on the brotherhood of nations. The rest of our stay in the Lower School was spent in the main building. During group gained Gifford and well as Fred and Wendell Fourth Inter- those last three years our such notables as Pewee Skyscraper Kimball, as Brunswick, Earl Farrell, Phillips. In the Third and mediates we were introduced to tackle football, losing our only out-of-school game. For the greater honor and prestige of the school we also lost a hotly-contested baseball game in the spring. About this time Mr. Howe began casting covetous eyes on Harvey Thayer, who broke a couple of Father and Son Day track records. In the Second Intermediate, under the watchful eye of Miss Chappell, we became a class of cartographers, making several large and colorful pictorial wall maps. We wrote our own script for our assembly of l is
