CLASS OF 1935 RICHARD FABIAN PHILLIPS SMITH 13 Ash Street, Cambridge, Mass. li YT 44 YY PHIL, sM1TTv In the lziglzfzzzzds, in flze L'0Il7lf7lV p!ace.t -S'rEvENsoN Born November 6, 1916 Harvard Phil is a line example of a quiet, efhcient human ma- chine. Although his modest and quiet air makes him appear too shy to be a leader, he has for the past few years led the class in scholarship and was elected to the Illini and to Students' Council, In school activities, Smitty has con- tributed greatly to the success of the past two presentations of the Dramatic Club. His line end play won him a well- deserved position on the football team. All these activities, however, do not keep Smitty from helping out a friend who needs assistance in any way. He is always willing to oblige to the best of his ability. Phil spends his summers climbing mountains and hitch- hiking through New Hampshire, pastimes from which he derives much pleasure. Another of his chief interests is skiing. From the first snowfall till midway in June, Phil may be found skiing on Mount Washington on week-ends. Also he is very much interested in short-wave radios, owning and operating one of the best amateur short wave stations in this state. It has been a great pleasure to room with Smitty this year. His cheerfulness and good disposition have been ever present. He will be a success in whatever he shall undertake in the future as he has been in the past.

CLASS OF1935 Q5 Class Prophecy NEW' YORK TIBIES JH llze news' flzaflrjfz to print November 8, 1950. NIEMBERS or CL.-iss or 1935 or THE C. D. S. Dear Sirs: This letter may seem impertinent, but please do not take it as such, 1 have been in close con- tact and have become a warm friend ofone of your class members, john Cranshaw. As you probably all know, Mr. Cranshaw has put on for the last few seasons many hit-shows, such as There's A New Son, Too Good to Be True, and many others. ln our friendship he has often remarked that this or that prominent man was of the class of 1935 of the Country Day School. Thus, 1 have thought it would make a good article for our Sunday magazine section, if I could find out to what your class owes its success. Mr. Cranshaw has related to me many amusing stories of his last year at school. As 1 under- stand it, your class was not an ordinary class. It took more interest in outside activities than most othersg on the athletic tield it excelledg and in the class room it always stood as a body against all threats of the punning faculty. There must be some line quality in the class that has made it so successful. I appeal to you to put aside your cloaks of modesty and pour forth your advice to the Youth Ot America' Yours truly, THE EDITOR. Dear Sir: Brookline Poorhouse. I am very happy to reply concerning my phenomenal rise to success. You all know I did not go to collegeg but, as my father wished, Ijoined him in his paper-business. My training at good old C. D. S. gave me the stamina and prestige-to contend successfully with all my opponents in the paper bag world. The social background of my alma mater was also ot the greatest benefit in business. There is one fault, however, 1 would like to complain of in your scandal sheet. The weather reports are always wrong. If worst comes to worst, 1 would like to obtain the position as weather man on your paper. As ever, JOHN ALFRED ANDREW.
