Gene has been an outstanding member of this class since 1931. He added a touch of society and style which we had formerly lacked. His clothing, which is not according to Esquire, is, to him, smart and, to us, a cause of amuse- ment. His bow ties, gaudy vests, and short trousers, which by the way, show advantageously his fiery stockings, have been the reason for many arguments. Gene, however, cannot be swayed from his sartorial ideals. Odie is one of the hardest workers in the class. He al- ways manages to have his work done, and done well. Odie is, however, a much different person on the gridiron than when he is in class. It is here that he is at his best. For two years he has played a brilliant game at end. He has, in addition, been hockey manager for two years. Gene's greatest amusement is, however, derived from sailing. Every summer he inhabits Marblehead and races against some of the best skippers in the East. His love for boats, especially tug boats, is even greater than his love for his new Ford. 1 am sure Gene, by the time he becomes a powerful shipping magnate, will change modes of dress, which we prescribed for him in those many arguments. He certainly will be able to say that he learnt at C. D. S. some- thing that cannot be achieved from reading books.

CLASS OF 1935 '19 REED CHAMBERLAIN MILLER 2-1 Lanark Road, Brookline Mass. 3 FRUIT, CAP, HREEDIEU They mn bemzzse llzfy think they CIUZUA-XIIRGIL Born August 22, 1916 Brown Although I have spent many pleasant years at Country Day, I feel sure that in having Reed as my roommate for our senior year was the biggest break I could have received. Reed is one of the finest fellows in the class and one who is appreciated to the utmost degree by everyone of its members. A bit backward and shy when he joined our ranks five years ago, he has blossomed out into an outstanding athlete, and is, by no means, just an average student. He is a plugger in both sports and studies and justly deserves all the rewards and credit that he receives. In fearlessly leading the football team through a fairly successful season, Cap. created an impression in the minds of those that saw him which will not fade for many years to come. As alternate goal-tender for the hockey team, he proved sure and steady. His good playing earned for him the opportunity of guarding the net for the Brae Burn hockey team in several of their games. In baseball he also excels, cavorting around the second base territory in true big-league fashion. He plays a good game of squash and is certainly better than average at tennis. By his clever sayings and funny antics he has kept the class in stitches throughout the year! This last year, Reed's un- selfish nature and his kind heart are only two characteristics which make him a friend well worth having. junior Wrestling Championship 1931 Baseball Team 1933-35 Hockey Team 1934-35 Football Squad 1933 Team 193-1-35 Captain Tack Squad 1933 Squash Team 1935

CLASS OF 1935 JOHN RICHARDS PERRY, JR. 700 Commonwealth Avenue, Newton Centre HSI,H JEAN, 'fjonxxru Come lzillzer af! J-ture! 111f1id621t: -KE,-Yrs Born September 23, 1915 Wherever Johnny may find himself, he will always have a host of friends, for he has a remarkable personality which radiates friendliness. He is one of the most popular members of the first class among both masters and boys, as is evi- denced by the fact that he was chosen for the Student Council. Si has been outstanding in athletics, having played foot- ball, hockey, and baseball for three years and captained hockey and baseball. His scholastic record is nothing to be ashamed of and he will undoubtedly make a name for himself in Dartmouthethe college for which he has made many a long and rabid speech during the Class One bull-sessionsf' Jean has a way with the fair sex which is nothing short of miraculous and his devotion for his mother would seem rather surprising as we doubt very much if his mother goes to Newton High School! His new Ford is always at the disposal of those who need a lift and this is a minor reason for Johnny's popularity. During the summer months John works for his father in the painting business, which olliers a change from school work, and provides a means of revenue which is most welcome to the receiver. This experience will prove, I am sure, of great value to John. Enough of thatl Johnny is always ready to dispel the clouds of depression by a smile and a joke. It is this happy-go-lucky trait, his laughter in the face of adversity, and his always ready joke, that so endears him to his friends.
