MacDONALD l wish I might get to know him better-this man who has made himself so much a vital part of our school since the very day ,hc came in September, 1931. Perhaps if I cultivate his qualities I shall be a bit nearer his level. May- be that is the Ollly way to know him. I've gathered so little about his past-only this- that he was born in East Windham, Maine- that he is a Bowdoin graduate, played football there, that he has taught in Maine, western Massachusetts, and Rhode Island, that he finally came to us from Quincy High School. lle is president of the Schoolmasters' Club, too, but how little all this really matters. I shall never forget the first time he made an impression upon me. It was at an assembly. He was called upon to say something about athletics. I liked the way he stood, tall, square- shouldered, with his hands behind his back, and looking straight at us. I always remember voices. His was well modulated, calm, reassur- ing. He said something about having heard of a splendid team we had tbasketball I thinki and then told us he was looking forward to see- ing ns maintain our record. Although I Wasn't on tl1e team, I felt like a million dollars when he got through! I have him in class, too. Heis the head of our inathematics department. Hc's thorough. lt seems as if everyone must understand whci. he finishes explaining. We work, but yon ought to hear the side lines on his amusing ventures in the culinary field! Did you ever get a chance to See him Wrcstlei lt's worth most any price. He trained an uns defeated wrestling team last year and somehow he trained more than muscle co-ordination, he trained character. You're at your best when you 're with him, you ,just can 't be small. But he can make you feel small though. Oncm l was supposed to correct a paper. I knew it couldn't be very valuable, there was almost nothing on it. So I marked it nothing at all. The next day he showed me the paper, said he'd figured it out. I believe the percentage was eight. Better than nothing--anyway. Funny, I can never tell what he thinks of mc When he smiles, I wish I knew whether it's at me or with me. And it 'S positively impossible to anticipate what he's going to say or what he 's going to ask me to do. He's always cir- cuitous, and begins with generalities. Before he's half-way through I change my mind a dozen times. But it doesn't matter much, he 's so persistent. And fair. I know the students like him. We feel we can talk to him whether we 're happy oi whether we're sad. And, if it ever came tc that, l wouldn't mind being tried by him! 4- ON THE OPEN SEA One Saturday morning last April I visited a friend of ours, a captain, and we had a long chat over different things. He certainly did know what he was talking about. He told me of his first experience on a sailing ship. On a Monday morning in June, at 7.30 QI couldn't sleep the night beforej, I applied for a job. Since there were about twelve experienced sail- ors ahead of me, the prospects looked discour- aging, but I had a note from the captain. So I was accepted as an ordinary seaman on board a sugar boat at S30 a month, sailing to different ports of Cuba and back to Boston. My watch was six hours on and six hours off. VVe mad- in all three trips during the summer, each one eovering a period of about twenty-one days. As soon as I was picked I was set to work cleaning up the deck, for the ship had been tied up since April. Late Monday evening wc went into dry dock, and until VVednesday we chipped. washed, and scraped paint. Late XVednesday we sailed for Cuba. XVasn 't I scared, not of the water, but of the mate. He seemed to be bawling me out all the time, but as I look back I can 't blame him much. The sailors told me he was about the finest mate I would ever meet up with. I spent four hours one day cleaning up oil about the deck. The mate came along and told me he could havi- done it in ten minutes. I was never so dis- lieartened in my life. Most of the time I cleaned brass, chipped rust, and took the wheel from 12 to 6. I stood' lookout often, and although I felt drowsy at times, I managed not to fall asleep. I had to chip water tanks on the inside and what a job it was. Every time I would get a kink in my leg and an electric shock from the lamp. One Saturday morning at the wheel It saw about six porpoises, no more than six feet from the boat. Sundays found me reading and washing clothes. ' lt. was now beginning to get warm and I could see flying fish from nine to twelve inches long. They would get up speed along the stu face and then fly into the wind thirty feet oi more. The water was now very blue witl' patches ot' sea-weed here and there. and nothing' in sight except the sun and the sky. Perhaps you would like to know what we did while off duty. l'll start from the captain. down. Ile spent most of his time making models of ships. The mates and sailors reac magazines, made cord belts, boat-s. painted or. canvas. and carved. It was amazing how clear. the sailors kept themselves and their rooms. One thing that surprised me greatly was that the ship in ballast would go to Cuba in 5 M A NE T seven days and return in six. Many people believe that fia gs are carried at sea, but it 's not so, only in emergencies. Now I shall tell you something about the sailors and the ship. My best friend in the forecastle was a Lithuanian named Berg. He had gone to sea at sixteen expecting to be home in seventeen days. He jumped the ship in Amsterdam, because of poor treatment, and boarded a. ship bound for Philadelphia. When he arrived he had a dollar and couldn't speak -a word of English. He hasnt been home since and is now thirty-two years old. There was a Dane also, but I didn 't like him and he didn 't like me. He called me everything under the sun. I ididn't see anything in him' myself, he was 'notliiiig but a wheelsman land it was notliing to be thatj- Wliile on -watch, hefwould slteall my cocoa and various otlieai-itliingswHe was alweaysltrying to get cigarettes'fromf the other fellows, finally they .caught on to him.

S'l'Rl1ZE'1' SCENE IN Crum I The sixth day out we passed San Salvador and then the next day I saw lofty mountains, .great green sugar fields, and forests. Up a deep narrow canyon we sailed into Cuba. That night we went up to a small town named Banes. I sat down to write a few letters in a cafe, while all the little bootblacks crowded around to get me stamps and to post my letters. Just then a policeman came in. and hit a few of them with his broad sword. After that they didn't bother us, but once we were out on the street they were always in our way, asking for cigarettes and nickles. One little girl even asked for a peso. 'We had to laugh -and finally gave her a nickle, too. About two the next morning we turned in. At 5.30 we turned out in order to start work at six. NVe painted the side of the boat. but found it necessary to keep lowering the boards, on which we sat, into the water to cool them off. The natives who worked as longshoremen were the most perfectly built fellows I ever saw. They lifted each 350 pound bags of sugar on their backs, walked across the hold, and laid them down as if they had been carrying 100 pounds. They worked from six to eleven with two hours off at noon and then till four. The young boys, who were also very strong, carried water all day. In port I was now able to speak a few words of Spanish, I traded a pipe for a pair of san- dals. I asked if they felt the depression down there and they replied, Yes, At night I hated to go to bed because our fan was not working. I would get up in the morning drenched with sweat. On Sunday most of us went swimming in water 750. Some kind of a fish bit me-and I had a rash on my armfor two days. The port was lovely and the American section of the town was laid out with palm trees, banana trees and wonderful houses. It was a treat to see. ' -A - I ' ' NVe always sailed with the slack of the tide, and a single error on the pilot's part would put us all on the rocksnf I think it must have taken tene years I oi- the captain 's v life' every time we .went throulghithe canyoit,'1whieh was about one 'and olne-half miles'lo1ig'3'iai1tl'fve1'y shallow at places. I AAs soon as the pilot was dropped we took the fiags down. Sometimes they would stick and I would have to go up to them. lt was a ticklish job up at the mast head with nothing to hold on 'to.l , ' On our last trip home, Slim, the mess boy and I, had some fun with the firemen. They had drenched us with water the day before so we set the alarm clock for 2. They came off watch a.t 12 so the clock wakened them in two hours. They tried all that trip to get even with us. I One morning while in the mess room I drank out of another sailor's cup, the -Dane's. He made a pass at me. I ducked and grabbed his arms, but what a blow he hit me on the nose with his head! My eyes watered all that day. Later in the trip I was late calling watch. I got it right on the top of the chin and was out for a few minutes. After we passed Cape Hat- teras, the water was a greenish color and it was very cold at night, in fact, it was so cold when we passed Nantucket that with two sweaters and a coat I was still uncomfortable. IVe dropped anchor Sunday and lay on the flats all night. The next morning we passed immigration and docked at five o'cloek. VVhile coming into the dock I was working the winch. It was only the second time I had ever had my hand on one. The mate was motioning to heave away, the sailor was splut- tering because I nearly caught his arm in the drum, and the captain was giving orders. I didn 't know what to do so I just let them get another sailor. Finally we docked from our last trip and I was sorry to leave the ship. From experience, however, I learned. one thing: to keep my eyes open and my mouth closed. ROBERT OUMMINGS, 10-4. M A XE 7' 7 OLD MAN RIVER Johnny sat back in his chair, putting on his soothing briar as the radio played Old Man River by his side. The world discon- tented him. Business-!

The expedition, ol' which -lohnny was a part, was increasingly curious as it saw an enormous stone pipe stretching from the river into a reservoir below, Front the reservoir, a series ol' te1'1'aces ex- tended up a long hill, past the pool, over the valley and up to the city. The explorers were climbing up these ter- races when a flash of light temporarily blinded them. Bewildered. they gazed upwards to where a huge shield, golden yellow in the sun, hung in the city square. They recognized the losf 'ildity of the lVa!'I'iol's, by this shield to o l the sun, so often mentioned in Peruvian legends. Stumbling up well-terraced slopes, the ex- cited party reached a paved street leading to the square. The golden emblem of the emperor scintillated before a pyramid temple, evidently dedicated to the sun. Its whole exterior was decorated with gold ornaments, and gold was everywhere profuse in the buildings. Johnny's little party explored every nook and passage. lt would take a book to reveal all the interesting objects they observed. Pipes, evidently for supplying water and disposing of sewage, lay in the ditches beside the streets. Roadways, having no side walks, intersected at angles to shame most modern cities. The buildings theinselves were slightly modern be- cause ot their occasional second stories and their style ot architecture. An exceedingly valuable discovery had been made il' this hardy band ot' men would be able to find its way out to r.-port it. They seated themselves on a stone wall and inade plans for exploring the city. as excitedly as a crowd ot children, taking souvenirs as evidences, and tor receiving the glory on reporting the find. l,t'l'll2llJN they were too greedy.

That it was Spanish was evident When the Indian guide replied in the same manner. Were they to be able to converse with these people and learn the strange secret of their isolation? VVere these people some band of lncas separated by the mountains from the rest of the world in bygone days? As they spoke Spanish they might even be the descendants of Indians who had fled from Spanish oppression into the wild mountain regions. And if so, had they developed into a new and strange race as often happens under like conditions? In any event, what would their fate be amongst these savages who plainly showed their dislike for them? The guide began to speak, unravelling the following amazing story.

Ton lay your plans for the day without thinking that something may happen to prevent their being carried out and suddenly you ind yourself confronted with disappointment. I guess most of us wonder why we are not illowed to carry out all our plans to a success- ful conclusion. but if we ever stopped to think vhat. would become of us if we always had 'hings as we wished them, we might .see just 'vhy even the best laid plans sometimes go astray. This is simply fate's way of letting us xnow that we cannot lay plans Without taking ner into consideration Erst. I wonder if you ever stopped to think what life would be like without disappointments and sorrows? We should become unutterably bored 'vith anything pertaining to life and would realize, perhaps for the first time, the reason for these seeming catastrophies. Is it not to nake us understand and better appreciate the ,goys of life? As life is at present we are all adventurers ind explorers, seeking experience, searching for happiness, and many times the very things we a1'e seeking are the things that hurt us the most and cost us the most dearly when We find them. Nevertheless, each experience, Whether harmful or beneficial, teaches us a great lesson in the school of life. We may not realize it at the time, but it is these details that make up our whole existence on earth. A man without experience may be compared to a man without arms. He is caught in the whirl of destiny unprepared for whatever life may see fit to deliver to him. At every turn he is held back by his handicap, the lack of adequate preparation, for this fascinating but bewildering game that is called life. Did you ever turn the pages of a calendar ahead and wonder what the future held for you? It is a decidedly interesting and intrigu- ing thought, but it is not to be built upon definitely for the capricious gods usually decide differently. And after all, who can tell what the morrow will bring? MURIEL Towns, 11-6, sNow-FALL Last night I heard a faint whispering Outside my window-pane. A soft, new sound. I thought, listening. It must be a gentle rain. And I slept again, yet in slumber That soft patter I still could hear Like a broken twig in the ivy, Or a dead leaf fluttering near. In the light of the early morning I arose, and drew aside The curtain. and there before me O'er the landscape far and wide- O'er the trees and shrubs and house-tops, O'er the church towers misty height, O'er all within range of my vision Lay a garment of purest white. And the air was filled with feathers, Mounding the hedge-tops high. From the wings of the downy snow-birds That flew along the sky. Mabel Macdonald. 11-5. RED AND MORE RED Billy and I sat on the pasture fence and chewed grass. There was nothing to do but chew grass. The August sun shone down, strong and bright, the ocean beyond the pas- ture was an unbelievable blue, and the gulls were startingly white against it as they Wheeled and iiashed in the sunlight. They were having a. good enough time, but we weren't. For that whole long day we were forbidden to go any further than the school house simply because we wanted to see, the night before, what Lars Johanneson was doing in Windy Point Cove. lVe had heard that he was engaged in a strictly illegal occupation carried on around the sea- shore, and we were greatly intrigued. What Lars was doing was none of our business, it seemed, and after being rescued from his en- raged clutches by the English gentleman at Wiiidy' Point House, we had been returned M .-l NE home unceremoniously, and the strict bound- aries had been imposed to teach us to keep our inquisitive young noses out of other people's business. Billy put his father 's field-glasses to his eyes and observed that Lars and Philip were having a fight in the side yard. He managed to convey to me a blow-by-blow description till the glad- iators disappeared, a11d once more we sank into silence, chewing our grass thoughtfully. A summer afternoon can be very quiet at times and tl1e only sounds we heard were the raucous laughter of the gulls, the muffled roar of distant surf, and that vague, indeterminate buzzing which seems to be always heard on a hot after- noon. Presently Matilda Jane wandered into our view. Matilda is our sister under the skin be- cause she eats all the time, the way we do. She is known to her intimates as Tilda and she lives a happy life of bovine content always minding her own business. Tilda, said Billy gravely, is a fine ex- ample of getting into a rut and staying there. I looked at him silently-I am used to his mental meanderings. VVhat she needs, he added, ' ' is individuality. ' ' '4You mean, I asked lazily, that she should learn Russian and wear what hair she has in bangs? I was not at all surprised by his statementg his talk was always mildly insane. Tilda, stated Billy, would look beauti- ful in red flannels. This time I was surprised, and disturbed. I stared at him with my mouth open. Don't you recollect that cow in Craw- ford? asked Bill. I saw the light. Oh, yes -but you wouldn't dare! Wouldn 't I, though? replied Bill. Here Tilda, here, I've got something for you! Tilda, all unsuspecting, ambled over, a wide smile on her gentle face. She looked trust- fully at Billy with those limpid brown eyes in a way that might have melted an older heart, but Billy was young and hard. Hello, old lady, said Bill. Here's some hay. She chewed it slowly, keeping her wide and child like gaze on Billy all the while. You go over yonder, Billy commanded me, and get Joe 's red llannels off the line. I opened my mouth to protest, but Billy said: Go ahead, he shouldn't wear 'em in summer. I saw the humor in the situation and grinned as I started off to where Joc's red flannels streamed forth upon the breeze. Billy knelt down in back of Tilda and pre- pared to make her individual. The subject tor should I say victim?j, eontendedly munched hay from my hand until she felt Billy's hand on her leg. Then she immediately became kittenish and sidestepped, her tail catching Billy in the face. He grinned and ducked. and the next recollection I have of the affair was T fl seeing Billy landing some four feet. off with a surprised expression on his face, and a frant ie Matilda tearing 2lU1'OSS the field as though J. pack of wolves were at her hccls. linhappy day! I still remember the hunu.: ol' that moment. Portugee .loe's flannels vvi-we practically strewn across the pasture in a. hull- dred pieces, and even in the excitement- ef' 'l'ilda's rebellion, I thought of Mamie Joi-. What. would she say? I shuddered to thinlc of her wrath. Billy was up on his feet, sg stout stick in his hand, ready for the chase. NVe were off, fast and furious. Tilda, far down the road, raised a cloud of dust like a troop oi' cavalry and then took the path past the fist! houses to t.he harbor. Oh, my g-ollyl yelled Billy. She,ll wrt-1 it the harborlw The first person Tilda met on her rampage was Snooky le Blanc. Snooky came out from behind his father 's boat, a can in his hand, full of rieh, red, paint. Billy shouted a warning and Snooky stared at the oncoming beast With- wide open eyes and mouth. He had no chance to get out of the way and Tilda swept him rdf his feet. NVhen the dust cleared, Snooky pw-- sented a rather gory appearance, for that rief.. red, paint covered his clothes and his face. He shook his fists after us and cursed with Gallic fluency. Here, 'llildaln called Billy. 'tHere, 'I'ilda! called I. But our entreatifrs fell on deaf ears. Tilda swerved to the left. and would pick out a bed of nasturtiums to wreck. She thought she was a bull, I guess and she put her head up and gave vent to her emotions with a sort of over-grown moo. We tried stalking her, but we were surrounded by a shower of uprooted nasturtiums. Tilda now chose a different refuge. She went straight for the Johanneson clothes lines, where the week's wash was hung out to dry, Snowy sheets tiapped tantalizingly in the breeze and Tilda evidently thought. they were waving an her. Anyway, she charged. A day of mis- fortunes! My heart stood still. I looked at Billy and Billy looked at me. Presently 'Filda appeared from under the clothesline. Despiif- my fright I doubled up in helpless laughter. If you have ever seen a cow with sheets fest00i.- ing her horns, you know why. Tilda start-tl at our mirth with wild eyes, her long face peer'- ing out from her veil after the manner of a bride, though a cow-like one to be sure. She whirled around and raced down the litt -e path that led from Johanneson 's to the mam road which was hardly more than six feat wide. On the other side ofthe road was .Iohai - neson's fish shack where fishermen meet to tar nets, paint buoys, talk over the affairs of the nation, and decide how to end the depres- sion. There was a group there now, and the smell of boiling tar mingled rather pleasantly' with the smoke of their ripe.old pies, as their 10 MANET talked and tarred away. Between two barrels at freshly tarred net. was suspended to dry. Of course, Tilda must head for this. The colli- sion would be inevitable, and shivers ran up and down my spine. I dare say Billy felt un- comfortable, too. The fishermen, serenely un- conscious of approaching disaster, smoked and talked quietly. Suddenly a new actor walked into the scene-Lars Johanneson, magnificent in white tlannels, a yachting cap set at a jaunty angle on his red hair, sauntered down the road. I felt a certain malicious joy as I thought of those iiannels. p How Lars missed seeing Tilda I never could figure out, but he did, and the results were satisfying-to Billy and me. Tilda rushed headlong at the nets, the tar, and the men. Through their midst she went, scattering them left and right. She would have walked right into the net, had she not seen Lars who stood still, regarding her with pained surprise. What- eyer made her do it I don 't know, but anyway she suddenly lowered her head and charged at Lars, who dodged-and a very neat dodge it would have been if he hadn't stepped on a stone and fallen backwards into tl1e spilled tar. ' Tilda stopped and looked at him with mild astonishment. No doubt she had never charged af man before. Once more she was the gentle and amiable creature of old. Through the last incident we had been like figures of stone. Now mutterings arose from upset fishermen, whose language at its highest was not exactly fit for drawing rooms. Their expressions were, to say tl1e least. very salty. Lars. however, said nothing He was craning his neck to see the back of the once spotless flannels. I giggled uncontrollably, and he favored me with a Charles Bickfordian stare. By this time, the whole village was.out and surrounded us. Questions piled in from every side. To each we answered in chorus: 'WVe haven 't the slightest idea. ' Lars started homeward, and I felt my heart sink when I thought of his rage. He would nurse it and pet it and some day it would burst out. His was the cold anger of the Vikings and I saw it light up his frosty eyes when he looked at us. Some of the villagers glanced at us suspi- ciously and the English gentleman arrived just in time to escort us home as he had done so many times before. He sighed faintly and said: Well, I must say, you've jolly well finished yourselves this afternoon. Thank heavens, you're going home day after tomor- rowq' Tilda trudged along docilely enough between us. The gulls were noisier than ever, but they were laughing at us now. Still, the aiair had its compensations. IVhen I thought of Tilda swathed in sheets, and Lar's white flannels, I laughed outright. I supposej' said the English gentleman, with a twinkle in his eye, 'ithat you still have not the slightest idea of how it happened. I've figured it all out, said Billy, with not a trace of a smile. I think Tilda just wanted to be different. ELIZABETH OGILVIE, 11-2. ESCAPE tWitI1 Apologies to Dickens? The French revolution! Bloody, ruthlessg the air full of foreboding and hatred. Peasants with empty stomachs lustily drinking the blood of selfish, foolhardy aristocrats. Aristocrats, refusing to accept the fact that if tire smould- ered long enough, it would eventually break into iiame. Count Raoul Henri de Coste, dare-devil son of a rollicking, nonchalant father, and a to- the-devil-with-consequences'' mother had al- ways dined, danced, hunted, and enjoyed him- self immensely. In fact he had never done a worth-while thing unless it was to pay pretty compliments to a very portly dowager. On the afternoon before the smouldering rubbish heap burst into flame, he called his valet to llllll. Gaspard, I shall attend the party in honor of Esther Dulac's twentieth birthday tonight. I shall want my blue velvet court dress ready soon after dusk. XYith Gaspard's assistance, he proceeded to dress for the hunt. Later that night he went galloping through the dimly-lit streets of Paris in his carriage. Crowds of peasants. menials, and servants of the lowest class were hovering around in fairly large groups, but Raoul was too occupied in- specting his fingernails to notice this rather strange scene. The sky was overcast and leaden. The wind was blowing in short and slowly lengthening gusts, and the dead leaves rattled like lonesome skeletons suspended in mid-air. Three hours later he was sipping Burgundy on a balcony in the palatial home of Esther Dulac. He was whispering impassioned love words to her, his fiancee, when she suddenly murmured, I wish you would stop just a moment, Raoul, and tell me what that red light is over there in the sky. He glanced up casually, and then fixedly. Now, I wonder what this is. Mon Dieuf' excitedly, HI saw mobs of peasants on the way over. Now, what the devil do you suppose they're up to? Oh, well, shall we go in and dance, Esther? UNO Raoul, I have a better idea! Letis go riding! You can take my brother 's habit, and I'll change right away. Theyill never miss us, they're too drunk. Hurry! I'll meet you at the stable in ten minutes. I'll order Charles to get the mounts ready at once. MA NET 11 Her suggestion met with great approyal, and fifteen minutes later they were cantermg rap- idly down the main avenue toward the red glare. They galloped through a huge crowd of peasants, armed with axes, cleavers, knives and home-made firearms of all sorts, to the entrance of the famous prison, the Bastille, where mill- ing crowds were setting free the few political prisoners the prison contained. Raoul and Esther, very unimportant-looking in their dark habits, were immediately pulled down and dragged by the infuriated' mob and handed to a group of officials, who had them taken to one of the cells, which was sparsely furnished, and spattered with blood. An un- fortunate guard was sprawled on the floor with his skull shattered. The peasant jailor, his mouth snarling and his red eyes shooting looks of hatred at Esther and Raoul, dra0'e'ed the body out, cursing madly. Est-her laughed hysterically, Raoul, tell me, is it real, or am I dreaming some horrible nightmare ? ' ' Raoul, pacing up and down the cell, and avoiding blood-stains, laughed nervously. I don't know. Isn't it ghastly! Mon Dieu! Will we be killed, or will we stay here for- ever? Going over to her he remarked, I'm going to get out of here! Parbleu! There isn't a decent place to lie down ! He began to shout. and beat on the door of the cell. A guard, covered with gore, came to the door, and pushing the butt of a gun through the bars, struck him in the face. He stumbled back, tripped over Esther's knees, and fell, stunned. Esther slipped down to his side and after wiping the blood from his cheek, slipped into unconsciousness. The guard laughed raucously and went down the hall. A week later, Esther and Raoul, despon- dently looking out on the infuriated mob be- low, watching the eighth cartload of people go to cool the thirst of Madamoiselle la Guillotine, conversed in despairing tones. Esther broke out frantically. Raoul, why don it they take us out there also. and end this suspense? I can't stand this waiting! I think I'm going insane! All the others are gone. Our fathers, mothers, brothers, and sisters. Mon Dieu, why can't we die? Raoul turned, and taking her in his arms murmured, Ah, Esther, don 't talk that way. XVhatever happens, we 'll always know that we loved each other. And. Esther, can you really blame them? Oh, I know l'm talking foolishly for one who has starved and mistreated them. but think, for years they have been starved to death, worked to death, even put to death for minor offenses. Can you blame them? No, we can only blame ourselves. lVe've got ,just what was coming to us. You know, I don 't think they recognize us. If they did, we would have gone long ago. Db She listened in silence, and then nodded, her beautiful eyes streaming with tears. Yes, I think you're right. Oh, I can look back now and remember things! Why, my father actually beat a stable-boy to death one day! There was a pause, and then she cried out, Oh, can 't we get to England some way? Can't you think of some way to do it? 4'I've been thinking of a plan, he said. It sounds rather wild but there 's a chance it will work. At least it 's worth a try. Later as a guard was leaving the cell, Raoul brought the handle of the riding crop swiftly down on the man's skull, crushing it. He swiftly changed into the man's clothes, and dressed the man in his riding habit, after tying and gagging him securely. He then locked Esther in, so that no one could enter the cell and harm her, and pro- ceeded nonchalantly down the squalid, bloody corridor, his weeks, growth of beard and un- washed face effectively disguising him. The stench of the corridors and cells nearly suf- focated him. On the way out of the building he met a fierce-looking woman, armed with a revolver and three knives 4'Good-day. Citizen. 'I Good-day, Citizeness. ' ' Quick suspicion entered her eyes. Citizen, where did you get that ring you 're wearing ? His heart sank, but he said carelessly, Oh, from one of the prisoners. I told him if he would give it to me, I would free him. The fool! I shall rejoice to see his filthy blood streaming down the sides of the guillotine I Bon Good-day, Citizen ! HGood-day, Citizeness ! After walking a few paces, Raoul leaned against a spattered wall and wiped the perspi- ration from his face. Mon Dieu! I shall not have to go through that again, I hope! He walked away from the clanging, glutton- ous guillotine, toward the outskirts of the citv, after taking off the priceless ring that had been in his family for years. VVhen he came to a group .gf DOW1-ty- stricken hovels, he entered the last one, and came upon a dirty, thin child of six or seven. 'tVVliat. are you doing here? Your father sent me for you. HQ told 1115- to tell you that he would see you in from of the bastille. Hurry, and here 's a franc I found, digging into his pocket. The child greedily snatched the coi11 and ran down the street. before Raoul had entered the house. There were two rooms. a bedroom and a combination kitchen and living room. The floor was dirt. ln the bedroom he found a ragged dress and bonnet, which was too large but would have to do. ii He then went back to the prison, meeting none but a few drowsy gum-dg, Z2 MANET He opened the cell door, and handed the clothes to Esther, who changed quickly, Whlle he waited outside the door.

Two weeks later they were on a leaky fishing boat, crossing the channel to Dover. ,They had gnade their way to the coast after many hard ilays spent in securing rides and lodging from fhe still revolting peasants. They stood at the stern of the boat and watched the bloody shores of France recede in the distance, thanking the inerciful God who rules our destinies. that they had been so mercifully spared. EDITH LLOYD, II-6. SUNSHINE AND SHADOW t ' I The back door bell of Mrs. Adams' big White house rang timedly. Mrs. Adams herself, clad in a severe, rather old fashioned gown, answered the ring, while the hired girlhovered -in the back-ground. COakleaves, Maine, still had 'ihired girls, not maids.5 U . The early April sunshine was peeking in 'hrough the crack, and when Mrs. Adams opened the heavy door, the sunlight came boldly in, revealing a shabby little figure who, however, came no farther than the threshold. Good morning, ma 'am, said he. fumbling .1 shabby little cap in his Wide, knotty fingers. I was a-thinkin' that maybe as it 's spring 1-leanin' time youid have some work to be done, as I thought that since I've been kinda' in the habit of doin' your chores, you'd be wanting me-. His voice trailed of expectantly. Mrs. Adams was annoyed. She didn't like men whose trousers had that peculiar habit of sagging in the back, and threatening to turn finder their heels. iiNo, she said crisply, There's no work for you to do. Now get along with you. The little old man's overalls seemed to sag a little more at her words. 'Now don't think hard on me, ma'am, begged the owner of the saggy overalls. I'm sorry to have bothered you, but I was just a- vhinkin'. There was a slight pause during which a robin hopped across the lawn and industriously pulled forth a fat worm. XVell, good-day. ma 'am. The pitifully disappointed look on the old 1nan's face was enough to soften the hardest heart and Mrs. Adams did not have the hardest. On second thought. said Mrs. Adams briskly. UAggie will perhaps find something to flo. Vonie in. Mrs. Adams returned to the living room after instructing Aggie as to what duties and What pay should be given to the old man. Seated in a wide chair with one leg up under her, Was Bette, Mrs Adams' niece. Wl1o was that adorably shabby little old fellow? she asked her aunt. That old man? Oh, he 's been around here since the town was built, I guess. His Wife died soo11 after the birth of their only son. The boy was a comely chap, and bid fair to turn out well, but when he was eighteen-that was about six years ago-he got a job in a bank, and soon after some money disappeared, and he was ac- cused. They couldn't prove anything, but the boy left town because of the disgrace. His father 's been getting poorer and poorer, but he still thinks that his son is a good boy, even though he never hears from him. Mrs. Adams stood up suddenly. But that's enough talk- ing: there's much to be' done. And she swept out. Poor old thing, said Bette, softly. Poor thing. It took Bette just two weeks to become fast friends with the old man. She learned that his name was Rogers, and that his beloved son 's was Jerry. He had dark hair, said Mr. Rogers one warm day, sitting down beside Bette on the front step of his little house, first pulling up his trousers, and then letting the fullness there- of settle down in back of him. Dark hair, not golden like yours. And brown eyes, like his mother's, and a tiny bit slanty, not blue and straight, like yours. And he was a good boy, Miss Bette, and don it you let no one tell you different. He never took no money. Bette was exceedingly sympathetic. She sat with her white elbows on her knees, heedlessly crumpling her white muslin dress, gazing With her wide blue eyes over the pasture. And you never heard from him? she asked. - .Never. But he 's alive, Miss, and don't you-. lVhat's the matter, Miss? Bette's wide troubled eyes turned to him. t'See that man going down the road now? she asked. VVho is he? S Him'? Oh, that's James Clarke. He was junior pardner of the bank where my boy worked. Why? Know him'?,' Oh no, no. I just thought I did. Come, letfs go inside and have lunch. Mr. Rogers followed Betteis sunshine figure into the meticulously clean house, Where he watched her prepare lunch from a basket which she had brought with her. Now I could have got some vittles to- gether, said the old man protestingly from a chair in a corner Where he sat much like a troublesome small boy put out of the way. I.know, I know, said Bette, her heart catching at his defiant pretense that he was ' MANET 13 well off, But you didn 't know I was coming, so I thought it safer to bring my own lunch. Besides, then I can have what I like best. She smiled and went over to him to give him a handful of raisins, a small boy 's treat. Everything is ready, she said presently, moving a bowl of tiowers so that the sun would strike them. Suddenly she saw that the sun- light was darkened, and looking up, spied a tall figure in the doorway. Mr. Rogers saw it too. My boy. My boy, he cried. Oh, you 've come back. I knew you 'd come back. He slid out of his chair and went over to put his arms around his tall son. Over his father's head, the boy looked at Bette. Suddenly she seemed to hear the thunder of wave in her ears, to feel a choking suffoca- tion, to hear a masculine voice say, I guess she's all right now, and to look up and see that same face. She turned, however, and leaving the father and son, went out into the sunshine. II James Clarke 's house was comparatively modern, and seldom used. At present its owner was seated in a comfortable red leather chair gazing with a smile on his thin lips at a photograph of a girl with wide eyes and blond hair. The ring of his door bell interrupted his thought. A few minutes later Clarke 's monsieur ushered in a young lady, and discreetly with- drew. Clarke's eyes shot from the girl 's face to the photograph and back. Why, my dear, he said with a smile, How remarkable to ind you here. It 's a small world-. Do be seated. Bette sat down on the edge of a chair opposite him. Jim, she said earnestly, I want you to do me a favor. You stole that money from the bank, didn 't you? Yes, said Clarke, looking amused. But I paid it back and everything's patched up quietly. ' ' But that's not enough. Bette 's hand clenched and unclenched on the chair-arm. I want you to clear the name of the boy who was thought to have stolen the money. But why, my dear? Because I know the father of that boy, and I want them to be happy together the last few years of the old man 's life. Clarke crossed the room and half sat on the edge of the table. I will on one condition, he said smiling. And that condition is-that you marry me. The phrase rang in Bette's ears: then it mingled with the horrid sound of thunderous waves, and a boy's voice saying, If I ever do go back, I won't stay. And dad won 't leave the place because Mom died there. And then again the words, marry me, and the waves-. Only on that condition? Bette's voice broke the momentary silence. Only on that condition. And James Clarke always meant whathe said. Well, said Bette, getting up and trying tml make her voice sound light, You're neithei brutal nor a drunkard, and anyhow I haven '1 made such a success of things in my part of the world. Let 's call it a bargain. III It was evening. T he cool grass swept Bette 's ankles as she walked slowly along the ridge of the hill, surveying the landscape below. She turned, hearing footsteps in the dusk behind her. Oh Dick-I mean Jerry. Funny I keel calling you by the name I once knew you by.' Not a bit funny. Only natural, Jerrg grinned. 'WVel1, Ilm clear. And dad's as happy as a lark. He 's running around telling everyone that he knew I was a good boy. An. I, Bette? He sat down on a rock and gently pulled her down beside him. Of course, the best one I know. Jerry laughed. I've a dandy job offered tr me since my name was cleared. And right around here, too, he said. The sound of a car on the road below caused them both to look down. That,s James Olarke's car,,' said Jerry casually. Yes, said Bette, quietly. You know, said Jerry enthusiastically. when I pulled you out of that shipwreck, and then said good-bye after only a couple of weeks of knowing you, I was somehow sure weld meet again, and we have. Yes, said Bette sadly. We've met-tc part again. A grinding crash silenced Jerry's puzzled reply. Good heavens! he cried, jumping tt his feet, Clarke's car has smashed into an- other on the curve. lVait here, I'll go find out what happened. He ran off down the hill, leaving Bette tc- wait and wonder in the growing darkness. It was almost a half hour before he reap- peared, and Bette ran down to meet him stumbling in the dark. IVhat happened to Clarke? she demanded breathlessly. Clarke-Clarke's dead. But, we hardly. know him personally, Bette. It 's too bad but-. Bette's voice was low and hurried, I knov -we hardly know liimf' But Bette, you said just before the accideni that we'd met to part again. said Jerry, as the thought suddc nly reoceurred to him. What did you mean '? Bette smiled up at him through the darkness.. Never mind, she said. IV Back in his tiny house, little old Mr. Rogers was trying on a new pair of trousers, which oddly enough, sagged in the back. HAZEL BORNE, 11-1.

On Tuesday night it has become, with most of us, a habit to tune in on that Crown Prince of comedians, 'fEd VVynn. For a half hour We listen to him and laugh at his witticisms, but when he has signed oif, his name perhaps, lingers in our minds for a few moments, but we soon go on about what- ever we are doing, just as if Ed XVynn did not iffXlSll. What follows is but an humble attempt .on my part to picture for you a general outline of his life. In the first place his name is not Ed NVynn. lt is Edward Leopold. He was born in Phila- delphia, on the morning of November 9, 1886. His early life was, for the lllosi part, happy, as the lives of most children are. As soon as the lad reached the grammar .-:chool age he began to show an interest in the atage, frequently playing truant from school in order to attend the performances of vaudeville in the theatres of his native city. Upon his graduation from the Central Phila- delphia High School, it was his father's plan -to send him to the University of Pennsylvania, but the young lad's ideas differed from his fathers in this respect, for he ran away from home at the age of fifteen, to enter a vaude- rille troupe. For thirteen years he wandered about the north Atlantic seeboard with this company, drawing twelve dollars a week until the show hit the reef in Bangor, Maine, in 1914. . It was in the last year of his association with the vaudeville troupe that he met the girl destined to become his wife. That girl was Hilda Keenan, daughter of Frank Keenan, so well remembered by the vaudeville fans of the late nineties - A The couple were married on the Hfth of Sep- tember, 1914, and from then on, life for the young comedian was a rhapsody, his young wife always ready to praise or criticise his work. In 1915, all that was needed to complete the young actor 's dream of happiness occurred, the birth of a young son. The boy was named Frank Keenan, in honor of his father-in-law. Later in the year, Wynn, the had changed his name for theatrical purposesl, joined the cast of Ziegfeld's Follies of Nineteen Fif- teen. This was the Erst actual contact with the River of Woe, Broadway, that the actor had so far experienced. It was at this time that the comedian intro- duced his famous comic hats that are almost a pai-t,of him. This stunt was inspired by a talk with his father who was, and still is, one of national powers of the millinery trade. ln 1916 the comedian made his debut at the Winter Garden, remaining there until he reached that cynosure of all actors, the starring role, in 1918. The World War did not find Wynn shirking. During the two hectic years of America's bap- tism of death in the trenches, the comedian is ei-edited with selling over three-million dollars worth of Liberty Bonds, for which service President. Wilson sent him a letter of congratu- latory thanks, and with it a signed photograph, which has ever since graced his dressing table. .ln addition to his selling of Liberty Bonds he gave more benefit performances than any other actor. For this, and various other serv- ices. he was presented with a bronze and silver medal by the United States Tank Corps. ln 1919, after the war, he was honored by The Actor 's Scroll for work in the behalf of his fellow theatricians, during the Actors' Strike of that year. Among his literary merits is the cup pre- sented to him by the Authors' and Composers' League, upon the writing of the Laugh Parade. He also wrote the Ed Wynn Carnival, The Perfect Fool, The Grab Bag, and Ed XVynn's Crazy Cross-Word Puzzle Book. Among his numerous gifts to charity and the church was the presentation of the entire pro- ceeds of a performance of The Perfect Fool, towards the construction of the Cathedral of Saint J olm the Divine, in New York City, at which occasion Bishop Manning accepted the relationship between the theatre and the church. At present he is afdliated with a large oil company, advertising that company's products for the trivial sum of SI55,000. a week. His home, Wynngate, in Great Neck, Long Island, is truly the home of one of our finest citizens. It was, probably, his fighting spirit that once caused one of his fellow actors to say, Jewish by religion, witty by nature, but successful by effort. ' , RICHARD RICE, 10-4. MY EXPERIENCE IN BERMUDA While visiting in Bermuda with my father we had the rather terrifying experience of seeing a hurricane. MANET 1-'3 The hurricane is preceded by a stillness, not even the trees move. The air becomes close and heavy, the sun gets red. A man who was a native there and who had witnessed one at night said that the stars appear very large. He also said that the mercury in the barometer falls rapidly, and the barometer usually indi- cates a rise in tl1e temperature. Darkness then usually extends over the earth with the excep- tion of a few flashes of lightning which light the heavens. The storm is first seen by those at sea. High waves rise suddenly from the motionless Sul'- face of the water. The blowing of the win'd is terriic and seems like the thunder in the distance. The rain descends in torrents, shrubs and trees are borne down by the mountain streams, the rivers overflow their banks and flood the surrounding land. Most of the people are terror stricken by these hurricanes. Birds are driven by the wind far out to sea. The animals usually herd to- gether, trembling with fear. Following the hurricane, the sun shines upon a scene of utter destruction. Fertile valleys are now dreary wastes. Uprooted trees, branches torn from their trunks, dead animals and the ruins of houses are scattered over the land. Sometimes the destructions are so com- plete that people are unable to distinguish the boundaries of their estates. ZITA KEEFE, 10-8. IN THE PULPIT lt seems that Davey Jones is always on the alert, for I cannot st.art on a sea trip but I have a narrow escape. We started out from Scituate on August 2, 1932, in a thirty-six foot sloop, the Quandry. The craft was rigged with jib, stays and main, she was a double-ender, so we had a tiller instead of a wheel, thus making man- neuvering simple. Our water tank had a capacity of two hun- dred gallons, and o11e of the finest hand pumps I have ever seen was used to get this water into the galley. We had a four cylinder Red Wing engine aft, and two gasoline tanks of sixty gallons each, on either side and above the engine. Our cooking was done on a small wood- burning stove about sixteen by twelve inches on top and about ten inches high. Our sink was, of course, small also, about twenty by ten inches, and eight inches deep. Below the sink was a spacious refrigerator which held enough food for about a week. Our crew was made up of Mr. Arnold, skip- per, his son, Herbertg Mr. Fitzpatrick, who a.cted as navigator, and me, who acted as gen- eral nuisance. The first day we went as far as Plymouth, where we rigged up our swordtishing pulpit. We also purchased there such paraphernalia as barrel-buoys, harpoons, and harpoon heads and, of course, rope. From Plymouth we proceeded through the Cape Cod canal. Just out of the canal we sighted our first swordtish. Fitz climbed out on the pulpit and let him have it The head went clean through the giant fish. but it went through near the side, where the skin was thin, and before we could throw out on a barrel he had succeeded in escaping. Wt sighted many more after this, but succeeded in. landing none. Just off Block Island I sighted a. large shark and proceeded to get all the tackle in readiness, It must be remembered that this was my first experience at the game. I clambered out on the pulpit with the harpoon in my hand. XVhen wt- had navigated to a position directly above him, I drove the harpoon with all my strength into the briny deep, under which my intended victim dozed. My aim was perfect, for when the foam had drifted away, I found that I had driver. clear through his stomach that glistening brass weapon. Fitz threw over the barrel and I proceeded in my efort to remove the harpoon Meanwhile the shark had become very mucl. awake and was thrashing about in a terrifying manner. I tugged and pulled on the harpoon, but to no avail, it stuck fast. I was determined to get that harpoon if it was the last thing I did, so with one final muscle-straining pull I tried my luck. The pulpit creaked and groaned under the strain, quickly gave way, and I did a ,somersault in the air, but my legs wound around the iron rail. Still the pulpit sank, until my head was under water, but I could not extricate myself now for my legs had become entangled with the bent and twisted braces. There I hung upside down with my head under water, unable to free myself, and on tor. of this, a ferocious shark was beating the water around my submerged head. Finally the men on deck by bending the braces freed me, and I was hauled up out of harm 's way. Mean- while the shark had wound the rope around himself a few times and then bitten it in half. swimming swiftly away with the harpoon. ROGER ENGLEY, 10-2. A FORTUNE WGN AND LOST tAs told by my great grandmotherl My great grandmother had a store of stories about interesting, exciting and adventurob happenings in the family, and she took as much pleasure in telling them to us as we in listening to them. One of her favorite tales was the following: My great-great-great grandfather was a sailor. Once his ship was captured by pirates who killed a great part of his crew and put the rest .16 MAZNET of them to work on board the ship. From time to time the remaining members of the crew were made to walk the plank until at last only :ny great-great-great grandfather and another ,sailor were left. .Naturally he was always planning to save himself and for every one of his old friends killed, his desperation increased. One day, by some kind of a ruse, they managed to get the whole pirate crew down into the hold. Quick as a Hash one of the captives grabbed an ax and stationed himself at the only hatch of the hold. As soon as one of the pirates reached up to swing himself out if the hold he had his fingers chopped off. The other captive was forced to manage the sailing of the vessel by himself. By heroic efforts, staying awake both day and night for five days, they finally reached an English port ivln-re the pirate ship was turned over to the authorities. According to law, the two captives, who had 'urned captors, received one half of the valua- tion of the ship and its cargo as their prize money. My great-great-great grandfather took his share of the prize and returned home to his native land, Norway, where he soon lost all of it. The other man settled down in England and apparently prospered. Sometimes we were inclined to tnink that iny great grandmothers story was greatly colored since we could find no trace of this pirate money in the family. However, as cir- cumstantial evidence, she offered the following events to which she could personally bear wit- ness. One day a letter arrived from England, very heavy and covered with official seals. The letter was addressed to my great-great grand- father and his brothers. It contained a will. The will stated that Miss -- was the -.laughter of the man who had remained in England. She was unmarried and had no relatives. Many times, however, had her father told her about the man who was with him on rhe pirate ship. She knew of nobody more en- titled to her estate than the descendants of this man. She therefore willed them all her pos- sessions in England, and the will went on to list these. But what did these uncouth sailors know about law? They took the letter to their em- ployer, a member of one of Norway's most prominent families. He very generously offered 'o go to England as their representative. This offer, of course, they gladly accepted and in- 'rusted him with the will and the other neces- sary papers, but failed to take a receipt for the same. After a few weeks this man returned from England and told them that the whole thing 'vas based on a misunderstanding and that there was no money or property to be had. This man, however, who was known to his em- ployees as a comparatively poor man, had nevertheless, while in England been able to buy a good sized clipper ship with a full cargo of silks and linens. With this he established himself as a merchant. But, I guess, re- marked my great grandmother, Hthere was no luck attached to those kind of riches, because he failed. My father once showed me this man's grave and tombstone. I was , of course, too young to remember this, but, my father later told me' that while all other members of the family of this man had long beautiful stories about their accomplishments engraved upon their tomb- stones, this has a name only. The stone seems to say, The less said the better! And thus ends the story of the pirate for- tune won once and lost twice. INGE THORNTON, 9-4. CYCLONE As we drew into Cleveland the clock of a church struck twelve. At the time we did not realize the experience ahead. Behind, the sky rapidly blackened. Looks like a thunder- storm, remarked a man on a street corner. In fifteen minutes a slight wind arose. In another fifteen minutes we were forced to stop. Then, all at once, rain began to fall so fast that it became impossible to see. The wind arose to gale force. People clung to telephone poles to keep from being blown away. Glass-plate windows were blown in, forms came out of a department store window and went off down the street. In another part of the city a roof was lifted off a building. Cars were stalled in four or five feet of water, although the storm only lasted forty-five minutes. All through the city, trees were uprooted, tele- graph poles were down, cars were stalled and many sections were washed out. This was my first experience with a lake storm. ROBERT STEVVART, 9-4. THANKS The day dawned blue and clear and cold, White frost adorned our roof, Sweet laughter chimed from out-of-doors, And this alone is proof- That the day of the year has come at last To make a joyful throng More joyous yet, to have them feel Like shouting-all day long. Each head and heart remembers well The days so long ago When Pilgrim Fathers dropped their arms And forgave their bitter foe. They seated them and fed them long, And heaped their platters high . With love and hope and friendliness To thank our Lord on high. Allan Power, 9-9. MA AUTUMN LANDSCAPE The rough country lane ran beside a twist- ing and churning stream. The white .foam bubbled and swirled around big rocks in its bed. Beside the stream stood stately flaming scarlet, green, and orange leaved maples. The leaves were falling from the trees that were swaying in the gentle wind and covering the sunburned grass with patches of brightly colored leaves. The land on the other side of the stream was thickly wooded, and moss formed a rich, soft, dark green carpet beneath the stately trees. The sky overhead was a misty blue with pearly white clouds scudding along in the wind. DOROTHY LEONARD, 9-8. A GOOD LESSON One very cold afternoon in January, just as we were dismissed from school, Mary, dragging along her sled, ran to catch up with me. Mr. Hanes, who was hauling a large hay load to the railroad station offered to take us along with him. Although he told us to sit up on top of the load, we insisted that we were going to hitch our sled to a dangling chain and sit upon it. Isn't this just grand? said Mary, sitting down on the sled and facing me. Everything was all right until we came to our journey's end, then things began to hap- pen. Mr, Hanes must have forgotten we were here, I said, while the big sled kept steadily sliding over the snow. Oh! that's all right, Mary informed me. '4I'll just slide off the end 211161 you follow suit. It sounded very simple and it was on Mary's part, for she slid off and was left sitting sweetly in the middle of the 1'oad. Now it was my turn. I slid off about half way, when my brand-new dress caught on a nail and held me fast. My first effort was to get the other half of me back on the sled, but all in vain. The next minute I was on the ground and the sled was on top of me. Mary tried to help 1llC back on the sled, but without success. Just then a strange thing happened. The rope on the sled broke and I was left in a bed of snow, with a rip in my dress from one side to the other, and my hands stinging furiously. AURELIA SANFORD, 9-9. C O A TARPON SPRINGS. FLORIDA Situated on the west coast of Florida, at the mouth of the Antaclote River is the little town of Tarpon Springs. It is especially noted for being the home of the Greek Sponge Fisheries. Along the waterfront are the wharves where the ridiculous little boats tie up. The boat we are to go on was named after Calvin Coolidge. N E T I? These boats are manned mostly by Greeks and are gone for weeks at a time, miles into the Guli in search of sponges. When' the boat reaches the best fishing grounds the men drop anchor. They make ready the diver who is attired in a heavy rubber suit, and rubber shoes with lead soles to weigh him down in the water. His helmet is made of copper with round glass set in it to enable him to see. After he is helped into his suit the men tie the life and the signal line to his helmet the back. The to go over the down into the his daring trip and the air hose is screwed into ladder is now lowered for him side of the boat and part way water. Thus we see him begin to the bottom of the gulf. VVhen he has landed on the bottom he takes his small rake and be- gins to gather the sponges and put them into l1is large net basket. We will know when this is filled because there will be a number of short jerks on the signal line. This signals the atten- dants on the deck of the boat to pull him up. The boats are homeward bound and the men are anxious to reach their home port and their families. They have arrived! What a wonder- ful sight to us tourists! The boats are tied up with gay colors and the sponges are laid out ready to be taken to the warehouse to be bleached. The warehouse looks like a court with cells on all sides. The boat I take most notice of is the boat which I have been on. It has its array of colored flags strung from the top of the mast aft to the stern and forward to the bow. The little boat is all white except for two orange and blue stripes that go around it. After I leave the boats and walk up the wharf I notice an old diver 's suit out in front of a store whose sign reads Curio Shop. This looks very interesting because of the nu- merous displays of shells and sea fossils in the windows. I decide to go inside. An ex-sponge diver who had become stooped with tl1e pressure of the deep water comes up and asks, How do you like Tarpon Springs? Fine, I answer, I think it is a very nice- town and I think the waterfront is interesting' with its fleet of sponge boats. We are very proud of Tarpon Springs,' he says. 'tWould you like to see the store? He shows me around the store and explains: what everything is. One thing that I like best is the pink and lavender sea fern. This is one of the most beautiful works of nature that 3 have ever seen. Several other things that are of interest are the salmon colored coral the ! 0 n , sponge baskets containing little plants, and the shell souvenirs. I am, sorry to leave the old gentleman and his curio shop, but as I am due back in St. Petersburg at six-thirty, I must be an my wan, to the bus terminal. ' NANCY PLUMMER, 8-10. 18 MANET AN ALASKAN ADVENTURE In northern Alaska just after the gold rush, .nany people could be seen walking around their new homes talking, joking and watching Jther people. Among them was Bud Hunter and his father. Bud was sixteen and enjoyed many privileges such as fishing, hunting. trap- ping, and shooting. On this day Bud wanted to go fishing in the stream three miles away. When the time came the weather was very nad. Snow was falling. The next morning when Bud awoke he found tt was just the kind of day he had been wishing for. He aroused his father. They lit the fire and ate breakfast. Then they gathered their fishing rods, lines, sinkers, bait, and Set off. After a mile of walking, the snow began to fall. As luck would have it, Bud remembered that he had left his gun at home, so he said to his father, You go on to Billy Paul's store, and wait until I come. The plan was agreed upon and Bud left for home on the run. Shortly he stopped to catch his breath. The snow was coming down still faster and Bud knew that fishing was out of the question un- less they could do so through the ice. Bud reached home, got his gun from the hook in' the wall and set out again, this time for Pauls store. The snow was now blinding and Bud had to pick his way along. It was in this kind of weather that bears came out of the hiding places. Almost at once the expected happened. From out a snowy blanket emerged -1 brown bear. The boy raised his gun to his shoulder. He would, however, not shoot unless the bear attacked him first, because his father had always told him that a wounded bear was -langerous. Not daring to move, Bud let the animal approach. He stood dead in his tracks .ind looked at the bear which seemed to be alarmed at this strange upright figure which neither moved nor spoke. Bud had heard that peopleused to feign death. Thereupon, he fell prostrate to the ground, daring to breathe only at the most necessary moment. As Bud had anticipated, the bear came over, sniffed at him and lumbered away. But the boy had ex- perienced so much excitement and fear that he ivas exhausted and weak, so weak that he tnade no attempt to rise. Finally he became numb and wanted very much to sleep. Meanwhile his father became impatient and --et out to find the imp As he trudged through the snow he came to a footprint of a hear, partly covered by snow. The man, ordinarily, would have been overjoyed at the prospects of a skin, but not now. He plodded yn, and quite unexpectedly came upon a prone dgure. He turned it over. It was Bud. .Not for some hours did the boy recover, sufficiently to tell his story. And then he slept again. I ROBERT NAVIN, 8-9. MYSTERY One night I went to the moving picture show. Both the pictures were mystery ones. When I left I glanced fearfully at the dark sides of the street. I was scared! When I got home I went right to bed. Suddenly, aware of a heavy tap on my shoulder, I opened my eyes. There were five images in the room. They had what seemed to be big sacks over their heads. They also had arms striped green and blue. Their finger nails were long on one hand and short on the other. Part of the time I could only see half of them. Sometimes I could see none. They couldn't seem to keep still for they were mov- ing all the time, even when staying in one place, something as a humming bird does. They forced me out of bed and outside! I tried to move, but I couldn't! I just seemed to fioat along on the ground! I floated about a mile with them back of me. We tinally came to a big precipice, about five hundred feet high. I was pushed to the edge! I was given a little push and the peculiar force which had kept me from falling was withdrawn! I started to fall! I screamed! I suddenly found myself on the floor. My mother was asking me what had happened and I was trying to explain. The peculiar force which held me up may be explained by my covers, which were tucked in under the mattress so that when I was ahnost off the bed, my covers held me up until they became loose, then I fell. The rest of the dream may be explained by the mystery pictures. NVILLIAM FOX, 8-2. CHRISTMAS EVE ' Christmas Eve was all silent and still, Except for a noise on the window sill. We all crept up to see what it was, And to our surprise it was Santa Claus! He jumped to the floor, and then with a wink He filled our stockings right up to the brink. Then he moved toward the Christmas tree. And what do you think he gave to me! YVhy, some beautiful skates, so shiny and bright, They dazzled my eyes by the iire-light. I wanted to thank him, but he had gone, Dashing with reindeer over the lawn. Beverly Sweatt, 7-1. THE FROG AND THE FLY Once upon a time an old frog, who was very wise, was sitting on a lily pad in the middle of Laughing Brook. A fly happened to be passing by and the frog called out, 'fAh! my dear young lady. won't you come over and sing to me? Your voice soothes meg Now this foolish little lady fiy was very young, and she didn 't know any better than to go over to the frog. The frog clamped her in his hands and held her tight. She pleaded, but it was no use. The frog just M A NE laughed and laughed and said, Don't you know any better than to listen to tlatterers? He kept right on laughing, for he was a very wise frog.

She jumped in, put her bag in the back seat and oif they started. lt was the night after she had arrived. Her T 111 grandparents had gone to town for food.

Who was it? She put on her bathrobe lighted her lamp and went downstairs. Shf hunted, but could not find anyone. The mystery, she couldn't solve. Louise told her grandfather about that night. He said similar things had happened. but he had not found out what caused them. Three weeks later Louise heard that strange noise, She went into the dining room, and looking outside the window, saw that the arbor scraped across the door as the cat jumped into it.

ANNA CUMMINGS, 11-6. .Ak .. ' Q ,l P s f. 'E ni-'TA if! MANET 21 TO BE OR NOT TO BE ' One of the biggest projects which North Quincy High has chosen to undertake this fall is the organizing of a football team. The form- ing of such a team was met with much enthu- siasm by the entire student body, particularly by the boys of the senior unit. Equipping the boys with the necessary outfit, however, was the great problem with which the school was confronted. To secure this necessary equipment, season tickets were issued with the hope that the stu- dents would cooperate and contribute to the cause. The returns, however, were rather small. A short time later HN. Q. buttons were placed 011 sale. The income from these also was not so large as had been anticipated. Though the school lacked the necessary funds, the team was equipped with uniforms. The boys on tl1e squad worked hard and cooperated with o11e another in forming a strong team, through the eiforts of Mr. Donahue and Mr. Foy. The school should be proud of having such a fine football squad and should be will- ing to do its part. It has been recently suggested that a school hockey team be organized. The faculty, how- ever, is rather hesitant in making any plans for such a sport, due to thc fact that the stu- dent body has not cooperated as well as it might in previous undertakings. Let 's get busy. There 's no reason at all why we shouldnlt have a good hockey team. ' MARY GILMARTIN, 11-6. CONVICTIONS The judgment of the student body at North is to be commended o11 the re-election for presi- dent of the Student Council, a boy whose ae- complishments during previous terms of office were so laudible-Joseph Watson. Many times we have heard it said that boys and girls are fair-minded. XVe would be prov- ing the opposite of this statement if wetfailed to recognize and renew the leadership of one who has served us well in the past. As an excuse we might say we wish to afford others the opportunity to prove their efficiency. But if we say this, what is to he gained by a boy or girl as a reward for good service other than the reward of personal satisfaction? Truly, shouldnt we admit that we are a bit envious and seek to take away that which we once so graciously gave? North's student body cannot be accused of such an offence, however. It has always sup- ported those worthy of its backing. We hope that in the future the boys and girls will be as true to their convictions as they were in re- electing Joseph NVatson, president of the Stu- dent Council. OUR IDEA OF ATHLETICS Athletics, in the past, have been arranged so that they would develop the individual instead of the mass. At North we take a different view of this p1'oblem. VVe all know that athletics holds a very prominent part in the plan of keeping the body and mind physically fit. Here we have a ten minute gymnastic session every day and classes in physical education are also part of our weekly program. Practically every individual has either been assigned to a gymnasium class or he has chosen it as an elective. It is often advisable for some people to take a greater number of gym periods than others. The pupils are placed in classes according to the special attention they may need. Some classes are de- voted chiefly to strenuous exercising, while others spend a fifty minute period doing less strenuous exercises and engaging in beneficial muscle building games. Apparatus work and rope climbing is also one of the mode.rn means of developing muscles. All these ways of spending the weekly periods help to supply the amount of exercise which is so important in the building up of good health. MARGARET DEERING. PLEASE! DO NOT HURT PARKED CARS Experience is my authority for the advice, t'Look where you are going. I was running down the driveway chasing a boy in a game of lady football. EAS we 11eared a parked car l reached out to tag the boy. I tagged him, but in doing so I lost my balance and went face first into the bumper of the car. As it was I just had a slight swelling on the side of my face. lt might have been worse. I say, Look where you 're throwing things because of what I have leard and snrmised. A tin can thrown can do as much damage as a well aimed stone or rock. Let us suppose a visitor parked his car in tl1e 1'ight hand drive- way. The visitor enters the school feeling that his ear is safe. The Hrst lll11Cll period comes. Some pupils go out and start a game of foot- ball, we 'll say a forward pass is thrown with decent strength. Frash! goes the window of the car or there is a dent in the mudguard. The visitor comes out after the pupils have 510110, gets a poor idea of the school and is slightly annoyed because of tl 1 l which does not look Well. it camaged car 30 it is better for your own sake as well as others to watch out whe . re you are throwing things. 22 MANET SIGNS Do we believe in signs? Of course we do. Since the no left turn warning has been visible opposite the center stairway on the third floor, the tratiic jam at that point has vanished. ln fact, conditions have improved so much that it has been safe to station a mere slip of a girl there as a traffic officer. ANNA CUMINIINGS. FRIENDS To have friends is a great thing, to lose them is tragedy. Most of us are able to make friends easily enough, but how many of us really keep them? XVe little know, sometimes how slight a gesture on our part has gained attention from another, which may later lead to a solid friendship. It may have been a smile. a pleasing personality. an understanding attitude, a depth of character, an unselfish dis- position. But. the mere acquisition of a friend is not friendship. We must. first of all, understand why our friends act as they do. XYe may not agree with them and may even frankly say So. We must make allowances for their faults. It must be rather sad to lose a friend due to misunderstanding. And what do our friends do for us? The very knowledge that we have friends affects our dispositions. XVe feel happier. more secure, contented. Through them our acquaintances increase. our chances of enjoyment multiply, we feel one with the World. GEORGE W. HOWE. The qualities of an individuals character are given the opportunity to be revealed in the execution of various plans about school. Such a one-placing in one room all who are able to study without supervision-develops trust- worthiness. self responsibility and honesty. This plan was practiced for a month, and will undoubtedly find its place in the new program for the next term. Any such plan in order to succeed necessitates sincerity on the part of the individual and good judgment of character on the part of the teachers. GORDON TAB OR. The following quotation is taken from an article by Mr. C. C. Tillinghast, principal Hor- ace Mann School, New York. The adult 'good citizen' is not one for whose every step a chart must be provided by some authority, but is the one who, self-directed and self-controlled, meets each life situation, expected or unusual, with such cheerful com- mon sense and positive application of construc- tive thinking that not only is the immediate problem well solved, but society is the gainer because of the action taken. 'He never breaks a rule' is no way to measure. The highest type of citizenship training is that which makes it possible to meet with satisfying success those emergencies for which no rules exist. UNTOLD TREASURE An American author once said, The world of books is the most remarkable creation of man. North Quincy High has a very good library. ln the library are excellent reference books which may be taken out over night. Many of these books contain information which, if used properly would help to increase one's general knowledge. In addition to the reference books there are various other types. For the lovers of fiction there are stories of mystery, adventure, love, animal life. etc. For those interested in lives of people. many biographical and auto-biogra- phical books are provided. Our library is growing each year. At present we have approximately three thousand books. YVould it not seem probable that at least a few of them would give you pleasure? ETHEL LITTLE, 11-6. In explanation of the cover and the motif used throughout the magazine in this issue, We may state that, taking the theme of Winged Pegasus, the immortal symbol of genius and inspiration, we have endeavored to unify the art section by making the headings follow this theme. The editorial page is headed by a torch symbolizing inspiration, the literary page is headed by the phrase, Star Dust, symbolizing the strange, intangible material from which We weave our literary endeavorsg the joke page has at its head Comet Hairs using the glorious tumbler of the heavens as a means of expressing the lightness and keeness required for true Wit.

CRONIN There was great rejoicing in the junior unit when it was announced that Mr. -lohn Cronin from the Boston Public Library would return to North and give one of his inimitable per- formances before that assembly. You may well imagine that the large audi- torium of the North Quincy High School was filled to capacity the day that Lieutenant Charles E. Lofgren told us 'iThe lluinan Story of the Byrd Expedition. He told of the ex- treme hardships of the frozen south and of how the men of the expedition endured them so bravely. The indomitable spirit of t'onnnander Byrd was clearly shown by various incidents that were related by the speaker. Lieutenant Lof- gren showed the official pictures of the famous expedition and it was truly wonderful to real- ize that we were seeing pictures of one of the least known sections of the world. Life at the pole was clearly shown and the pictures gave one a Very fine idea of the daily routine and happenings. Lt. Lofgreu had one of the dogs that was born at the south pole with him. The dog's name is Toni Pratt and he attracted a great deal of attention. The students certainly appreciated getting first hand information concerning an expedition that will go down in the annals ot history. As I sit writing this article I heard a radio announcement to the effect that it was thirteen years ago this December that Raold Ainundsen made the first trip to the South Pole. He went on a dog sled, Byrd went in an airplane. They both got there, but what a difference in the l method of transportation. I wonder how and where explorers will be going thirteen years from now? Mr. Cronin interpreted Robert Louis Steven- S011'S 'tKidnapped. Since he is a good actor he was able to give us excellent characteriza- tions. VVe shall look for Mr. C'ronin next year.

Dr. Hsieh explained the HNew Qhinese Movement, telling of the great in- tellectual improvement made by the Chinese people in the past few years. He also empha- --ized the great need of doctors, dentists, and gurses in China, stating that there is only one physician to each four hundred thousand people, and one school-teacher to each one hun- -lred thousand children. Dr. Hsieh is a most cultured gentleman. He has travelled in forty- two countries and speaks many languages. On several occasions he has performed diplomatic missions for his country. Dr. Hsieh speaks English fluently, even using slang with good effect. At times his power of oratory held his audience spellbound and then he would have them roaring with laughter with his puns and witticisms. At the e11d of his speech, D1'. Hsieh made a strong appeal for international peace and friendship between the United States and China. JAMES GUILMARTIN.

This token has been distinctly connected with athletic achievements. NVe feel that the service rendered by students in pursuits other than athletics is worthy of recognition in this way, and therefore, to en- conrage all around development and proper citizenship, we urge the adoption of a letter award system based upon general participa- tion in a number of worth while school activities. We know the urge which captures the heart of a boy when an upper classman strolls by with the school letter on his sweater. Immedi- ately the question arises, How can ll get one of those letters? The letter becomes a goal. The path to attainment should be a happy, but Then as a reward for t'Good and faithful service, along with commendations of well done, we recognize the efforts and crown the attainment by presenting the school letters. We anticipate that it will not be solely, For the sake of a ribboned coat or the selfish hope of a season 's fame, but that the boy will learn how to respond in later life as he did when, t'His captain 's hand on his shoulder smoteg 'Play up! Play up! And play the game'l WELFARE WORK This year the student body helped materially in providing Christmas cheer to the needy and unfortunate people of Quincy. Each home- room volunteered to take charge of one family and see that the family had a happy Christmas. Each home-room was divided into committees on food, clothing, toys, and Christmas trees. The pupils brought food, clothing, and toys from home and contributed towards a Christmas not an easy one. lt matters not if he fails to see that, Tis' better to travel hopefully than to arrive. Yet development naturally comes, unconscious ot it though he may be. tree. Seventy families were taken care of, and the pupils gained much pleasure from helping in this work. JAMES CIVILMARTIN.

PURPOSES OF THE ATHLETIC COUNCIL The purpose of the Athletic Council is to organize an association which will include the entire student body. Through the cooperation of this body the athletic program can be planned. The council, under the direction of Miss Marriner and Mr. Donahue, is made up of two boys and two girls from each senior high grade and one boy and one girl froin each junior high grade. They meet once a month to dis- cuss matters pertaining to athletics such as: the letter award systein, finances, helping at games. and sponsoring social activities for the be-nent of the athletic fund. The success of this council is in direct pro- portion to the degree of interest shown by the students and teachers. Give thein your loyal support. II CLUBS The club system of the North Quincy High School is organized chietly to provide construc- tive enjoyinent for the pupils in the building. Naturally, the interests of such a large body of pupils differ widely, therefore supplying a de- inand for clubs of all types. If a group of pupils ind they have a cornmoniinterest and that there is no club covering this activity, such an organization may be formed by applying at the office. and if accepted there, a teacher is 6 MANET 3-4' found who is willing to take the responsibility of sponsorship. In this manner, many of our most popular clubs have been originated. The list of thirty-five clubs gives an outlet to prac- tically every type of boy or girl, from the athletically inclined to the pupil who enjoys doing handicraft work. At past assemblies, some of our most inter- esting programs have been provided by groups such as the Glee Club, the Gymnasium Clubs. the Art Club, the Debating Club, and the Aeroplane Clubs. Read about these in the fol- lowing articles describing the activities of our various clubs. JANET ADAIR. ARCHERY CLUB Sponsor ................. ....... N Iiss Tufts President ....... ..... K enneth Harding Vice-President ............. Fred Cummings Secretary and T reaxurer Inge Thornton Clerk ...................... Arthur Hewitt The 'drst three or four meetings of the Archery Club were devoted to teaching the prospective archers the proper care and use of the bows and arrows. The actual shooting, weather permitting, is done at Faxon Field. During the winter, however, because of cold and possible snow, the shooting is done in the corridor at the rear of the cafeteria. Competi- tion is keen because individual scores are kept. Dues amounting to tive cents a week are collected for the purpose of replacing Worn or broken equipment, or, as in the case of last year, the members bought a new five foot lemon- wood bow at the end of the term. INGE THORNTON. ART CLUB Sponsor ................. Miss Mabel Smith President ....... ........ E dith Zottoli Vice-President .... ...... B Iary Sisson Secretary ............,.... Martha Collins The work of the Art Club. besides encourag- ing art appreciation, gives an outlet for self expression to the members of the organization.

Many unusual and intricate designs have been transferred and painted on the tiles for Christmas gifts. Soap sculpture will be the next unit to be taken up.

Chess lessons are given to the new comers at the beginning of each term and then the tournament is on. The prizes are paid for by club dues. So far, a feminine touch has been lacking. Are the girls' brains of a slower quality than the boys', as they seem to avoid chess? THE DEBATING CLUB Sponsor ..................... Mr. linfferiv Presiclent ........ ........

NORTH WINS FHRST GAME The North Quincy High School football team made an impressive debut in its first interscholastic grid game when they smothered a hard-fighting Oliver Ames High of North Easton 19-0 at North Easton. Coach Donahue's charges, who are the first to represent North on the gridiron scored in each of the latter three periods, Captain XYalter E-ryan, fullback, aiid George Mitchell, center garnering the touchdowns. Bryan bounced off tackle on the first play of t.he second period and twisted, dodged, straightarmed and side- stepped his way for 60 yards and North's first touchdown. Tee Mitchell, lanky North center, blocked a kick on North Easton 's 20 yard line in the third period and recovered the oval over the goal line for touchdown number two. The last score came in the final period when Captain Bryan intercepted a North Easton pass and waltzed 18 yards for the tally. tfMutt Mathurin cracked the line for the odd 'point after Mitchell 's score, both other tries at conversion failed. T ' Other standouts were Bat Nelson, who got oft on a gallop of 45 yards and Peanuts Ryan who travelled 25 yards on one occasion. NORTH QUINCY 6-KINGSTON 0 NVith five minutes to play, -Qipn Bryan tossed a 30-yard aerial to George Murphy, North left end, who snared the ball in the end zone for the lone touchdown which beat Kings- ton in North 's second contest. North outplayed the Kingston boys through- out the engagement, but lacked the vital scor- ing punch that wins ball games until the final period. In the first period it looked for a time as if North would run away with the game when they garnered four first downs in a row after receiving the kickoff, but Kingston held and North's first scoring chance went glimmer- ing. Captain Bryan and Mitchell were the defen- sive stars while Herby Jones and Mutt7' Mathurin looked good on the offense. NORTH UPSETS SCITUATE I3-0 Coach Donahue's big Blue and Gold team rolled to its 'third win of the season in as many starts when they outplayed, a heavier, more experienced Scituate eleven, 13-0 at Scituate. Playing their best ball of the season, North 's frontier ripped through Scituate 's heavy ling time and again to smear the ball carrier, while Q. I.

Incidentally, North was the first team to cross the Blue and Whites goal line this year and only the second to defeat Scituate, Hanover turning the trick last year. Herby Jones went over for both tallies. the first after Mathurin had caught a 30-yard Brvan toss and then stumbled on the 1-yard line, and the second when he fell on a blocked kick which Powers, left guard had got in on. Bryan with his kicking and Mitchell back- ing up the line were the defensive standouts, sharing honors with Power and Studley. Jones and Nelson looked good in the backfield, while Jenkins was mountainous for Scituate. NORTH MEETS FIRST LOSS A light, but flashy East Bridgewater eleven broke Nortl1's string of victories when they walloped them 14-0 at Pfaffman's Oval before a fair crowd. Showing a phantom halfback in Greggorie and a pass intercepting quarter in Boland, the Bridgewater boys made North look tough It was just another case of too much experi- ence and shiftiness against a green team. with North learning a lot about laterals. Greggorie was in on both touchdowns, scoring the first one on an 18-yard jannt and tossing a lateral to his teammate Fournier for the second one. Fournier and Boland cracked the line for the extra points. NORTH WINS AGAIN A revamped North Quincy eleven smeared a vastly inferior Randolph team 21-0 at Pfaif- 1nan's Oval to ring up its fourth victory in tive starts. The Blue and Gold scored in the first period when Mettler, right tackle blocked a kick on Randolph's 19-yard streamer. and after two rushes Joly carried the leather over, Cap Bryan tearing through center for the point. In the second period Peanuts Ryan went over on a fake plunge from the 8-yard marker. NValter Joly cracked open the line for the second extra digit. Touchdown No. 3 came when Captain Bryan intercepted a Randolph pass and ran 21-yards, Cap also making the extra point. Bill Coughlin, NValter Joly and Bat Nelson looked extra good in this contest, while the whole outfit played a well-balanced game. NORTH BOWS TO HINGHAM I9-6 Witli Clark, Hingham left-half, leading the scoring parade with two touchdowns, Hingham High lmng a 19-6 defeat on North in the Blue and Gold 's sixth game. Clark scored twice in the second quarter. once from the ti-yard line and once on an 18- yard run, while Means tallied in the third quarter and dropkicked thc goal for the extra point. North went across in the final minutes of the last quarter when Bryan tossed a fiat pass to Nelson who stepped 25-yards before being brought down on the 1-foot line. He went over 011 the next play, however, the try for point went awry. Clark, of course, was the Hingham bright light, while Peanuts Ryan and Mettler stood out for the losers. BLUE AND GOLD TAKES IAY VEES I2-0 A brilliant, determined North Quincy High grid machine led by Captain NValter Bryan, mowed down Coach Leland Anderson 's Quincy High Junior Varsity 12-0 at Comin's Stadium in the Blue and Gold's last game. North Quincy outplayed the Jay Vees all through the game and it was seldom indeed that Coach Andersonls boys had the ball in North territory ,after the first period. Captain Bryan and 'fHerbyl' Jones went over for the touchdowns, the burly fullback crashed over midway through the second quarter after he had tossed a 35-yard pass to Bat Nelson, which landed the oval on the 11-yard line. Two cracks at the line netted nothing and thell Nelson pulled an end run, being stopped on the 1-yard line, but getting a first down. It took Cap two tries to go over, but he made it. Bryan's try for point went awry. Jones scored halfway through the final period after Mitchell intercepted a pass 011 Quincy's 31-yard marker and a .Nelson to Ma- thurin pass was good for 17-yards, placing the ball on the -lay Yees 14-yard line. Jones smashed his way to the 4-yard line and then went over standing up. lValter Joly was stopped inches from the goal-line trying to convert the extra point. Tee Mitchell played a marvelous game defensively and with Bryan helping .him back up the line, these two boys must have made half the tackles. Besides backing up the for- ward wall, Mitchell broke through to block two of Ordway's punts, intercepted a pass which sent the Northerners on their way to the second touchdown, and didn 't make a bad pass to his backs all during the game. Captain Bryan for three periods did all the kicking and passing for North and scored the first touchdown, while Bat Nelson ran his team coolly and skillfully, putting North in position for the first score. For Quincy. Captain Cleary, Ordway, and 'fEdd1e Mcflarron were standouts, with Cleary playing an exceptionally fine game. 38 MANET MITCHELL ELECTED '33 GRID LEADER At the close of the season, members of the Football Team unanimously elected George 'Tee Mitchell, center, as captain of the 1933 outfit. Mitchell was a great defenseman, backing 'ip the line in admirable fashion and blocking three punts during the season, where most Qinemen are lucky if they block one. He should prove an inspirational leader, as he is very popular and offers a good example to other members of the team in respect to his grand ighting spirit, cooperation and scholarship. f'Mitch,' doesn't limit his activities to foot- ball, playing basketball and baseball as well, having played center on the hoop team ever since his junior high days. VARSITY WRESTLING . Last year North, under the excellent coach- -ng of Mr. MacDonald, produced a fine wrest- ling team that went undefeated for the whole season with only two ties. This year North will compete against varsity reams. although it has only two classes in thi senior unit. Mr. MacDonald predicts that we 'vill have a fine wrestling team and a good chance of winning our share of the matches. The squad will be called out and begin inten- .ive practice immediately after the Christmas facation. A schedule of our matches is as follows: January 9-Needham tAwayl. January 16-Quincy High tAwayD. January 23-W3t91'fOWH fHomej. February 6-North Easton tHome5. February 13-Watertown fAway5. February 27-Quincy High tHome'l. March 6-North Easton tAwayJ. March 13-Weyiiioiith fHLl11l9l . March 20-Needham fHomeJ. This schedule is subject to change. Q BASKETBALL TEAMS READY TO G0 Coach 'tCurly Rogers has been whipping his hoop squad into shape for the last month now, in preparation for the stiff schedule which iie intends to face. With many veterans of his last year's undefeated team back, and some clever sophomores coming up, Coach Rogers should be able to put a classy team on the door. Coach Rogers, who has nine games scheduled now, wishes to have fourteen before he is through. North is to play Quincy High two games, Milton High one game, VVeymouth High two games, Hingham High twice, and Taunton two contests so far. The first game being with Taunton, January 4. IUNIOR BASKETBALL lVhen Mr. Alexander, coach, called the junior boys out for basketball, there was a fine re- sponse. Instruction was begun in the fine points of the game. After the instruction was well started, there began the weeding out of those unqualified to play. The squad.now con- sists of the following sixteen boys with two managers. Francis Donahue, Curtis XVilliams. XVa1ter Dixon. Harold Chase. Leon lVhite. Frank Howe, Robert Saw- yer. Charles King, David Stevens, Herbe1't Swanson. Fred Cummings. YVilliam Cbisom. Fred Happle. Peter Vooke, Charles Wi1iHe1'. xvllliillll McMillian. The managers are Robert Slgor and Clarence Butres. Last year practically all the junior basket- ball boys went into the senior unit, thus leav- ing only new material with which to form a new team. This year, there will be six games-three games here and three games away. The games will be with South, Point, and Central. The first game is on January 11. SOCCER ' North 's soccer team this year only had four games as she is just breaking into the school- boy booting game. She played two games with the Trade School ankle-tappers and two with the Quincy High seconds, tieing one and losing one to Trade, and winning one and losing one to the Quincy seconds. Alvin Onions'7 DeYoung was the big star garnering all the goals North scored. Mr. Sylvia and Coach Fleming were in charge of the team and Thomas Ferris was captain. INTRAMURAL WRESTLING Immediately after Thanksgiving, Mr. Mac- Donald called out all those in the ninth, tenth and eleventh grades ,interested in wrestling. The boys in the eleventh grade practice on Monday 5 the tenth grade boys on Tuesday, a11d the ninth grade boys Thursday. All wrestling practice was held in the Cafeteria. Although .ll A .YE T -'ffl the attendance was at first poor, it slowly be- gan to increase, so that just before the Christ- mas vacation. there was a large number of boys practicing every wrestling night. After the L'Il1'lSllllFtS vacation some boys were chosen from tl1e Intramurals to till the vacancies in the Varsity squad. There will be co1npetitio11 between the ninth, te11tl1 and eleventh grades to see which grade will be victorious. Also there will be competi- tion in every weight in order to secure the winner in each weight. Intramural wrestling gives every boy a chance to learn how to wrestle, make the varsity squad and team, and build up his health and strength. GIRLS' ATHLETICS This year each grade plays the sports which seem most suitable for it. Batball has been played in the form of a tournament by the junior unit. This game being new has aroused keen enthusiasm among the girls. Basketball will be played as an intra-mural sport to decide the champion team. As last year, an honorary varsity team will be selected from the best players and will meet some team from Quincy Senior High. It has been decided that the seventh grade will 11ot play basketball this term, but will in future years. Tennis and baseball will compose the major spring sports for all grades. New games are hoped for and will surely stimulate a lively interest among the girls. The editors of this department think it a good idea for tl1e women teachers to form a basketball team in the school this year. They might play either the girl 's champion team or the honorary varsity. A game of this sort would create an intense feeling of competition among the players and it would draw the at- tention of the entire school. ANNA CASHMAN. NEW REGULATIONS AND RULES Each year the official rules and regulations for girls' basketball are revised. This year eight of our last major rules have been changed, making the game more exciting. tll The radius of the center circle has been increased to three feet and theiplaeelnent at the lnackhoard corresponds to that on a boys' court. t2l A new rule for the scorers and timekeepers: They must remain official tlirougliout the game. till Now the player consuming more than ter, seconds while making a free throw is eoinmitting 'n violation instead of a foul. C-li Guarding in any plane is permitted as lone as there is no Contact with either opponents person or with a hall in possession of the opponent. till Another new rule which will increase th- Scores: All tield goals are now counted as 2-poinf value. itil The game may be opened with either eente' toss or center throw, both being oflieial. 173 Touching the free-throw line is no longer :Q violation. t8l If either technical or personal foul is com- lnitted against a forward while in the act or shooting for a basket, and the basket is made, the goal shall count and one free-throw is allowed. I3 the basket is missed, two free-shots shall he allowed. Although at North we have always playee with only six players on a team, basketball may also be played with nine players, there being one center, two assisting side centers, three guards and three forwards. The officials in a real game are: referee, um- pire, two time keepers and two scorers. The home team should supply a referee, but first they should secure the agreement of the visit ing team before the day of'the game. The visitors shall choose the umpire, official scorer. and a time keeper. All these rules are remodeled to make tht sport different and more interesting. The girls. find it hard, at first, to adopt these rules, but once they are conquered they seldom regret the practice. MARGARET DEERING. GIRLS' BASKETBALL On November 22, considerable interest was displayed at a basketball game staged in our gym. The contestants were two picked teams' from the tenth and eleventh grade girls. Har- riet Leavitt and Rita Darling were elected temporary captains. Peg Deering started the Hrst quarter witl. a basket and Rita Darling came hack with 2, basket for her side. Neither teams did muel. scoring and the quarter ended with the score tied, four to four. In the next quarter Kay Mcliean started. at jump center in place of Nat Archer Both teams added to their score during this- quarter. When the quarter ended, the score was 21 to 10 in favor of llarriet Leavitt? team. 40 MANET AT IVon1c IN 'rim Gx'A1x.xsIi'nr Reading Qfroni left to rightb-Anna Cashman, f.: Harriet 11: Tiny Stevens. s.e.3 Remy Donna, s.c.3 Rita The third quarter found Nat,' Archer back at center, June Ritchie at guard in place of Harriet Leavitt. May Ritchie at center and Martha Reynolds at side center. In this quarter Rita Darlings team was allowed two free shots, but both were missed. This quarter found the forwards on Rita Darling's team doing most of the work. The score at the end of the third quarter was much closer, being 23 to 22, still in favor of Harriet Leavittls team. In the last quarter Harriet Leavitt went back at guard in place of Mary Ready, Martha Reynolds at center, and May Ritchie at side center. This quarter was the most exciting of all. In this there were four free shots. but only two counted, one by 'tPegl' Deering and one by Eleanor Rielly. t'Peg Deering did most of the scoring in this quarter. The Hnal score being 36-31 in fayor of Harriet Leavitt 's team. Rita Darling was high scorer for the day with 14 baskets and Peg Deering second with 12 baskets. Referee-Miss Perkins.

Ready were chosen captains. In order that both teams would be equally divided, the cap- tains alternately chose their sides. There were fifteen girls playing and nine of them played on North 's varsity team last year. Miss Per- kins reminded the players of the major mis- takes made in the previous games. XVitl1 Nat Archer as their jumping center, Cashman's team swamped Readyis team with a 30-14 victory. Ready's team showed quick action at the center-toss when McLean, center. secured the ball and threw it to her forward who opened the game with a 2-0 lead. This lead did not last for Donna, working op- posite from Ritchie in center bounds, tossed the ball to Darling who made a nifty shot, mak- ing the score a tie. This quarter had all the earmarks of the roughest period, there be- ing three personal fouls and a technical foul called during eight minutes of action. A In the second quarter Cashman and her lucky six doubled the score. Ready and Ritchie, a good combination of guards, did their best to hold the score down. Ready, by means of elevation, made a dandy jump and sent the ball flying downto the goal. The forward scored a basket. Three monopoint shots were made by Cash- n1au's team and one chest shot was scored by MA ZVIulTg gg g g gil Ready 's team during this third quarter. This showed good playing and tl1e score was 27-13. Readyis team stuck to the unlucky number 13 until the last of the fourth quarter where a free throw changed it to 14. Meanwhile Cash- man and Darling were piling up the score. At the final whistle the score showed a 16 point lead for Cashman 's team. Referee-Miss Perkinsg Scorer-Rosemary McCauley5 Timer-Mary Carroll. MARGARET DEERING. VICTORIOUS AGAIN Another interesting game of basketball was played by the girls from the tenth and eleventh grades 011 December 13th. Again with Rita Darling as their honorary captain, the team came out on top a11d defeated May Ritchie 's less fortunate fighters with a score of 31l11. McMahau had a stiff assignment when she was placed as center opposite from quick footed Archer. At center toss Archer recovered the ball and aided by Donna, she passed the ball to her forwards. There was little opportunity to gain headway, for Ritchie and Leavitt, two guards, covered Darling and Deering. Leavitt sent the ball back to center bounds, but Donna had broken loose from Ritchie and intercepted the pass. Darling dropped a pip, opening the score after a strenuous fight. After this shot, Cashman came in contact with the ball and tied the score. At the close of this period Darling's team held a six point lead. Rielly, one of our best forwards was unable to attend the game, so Ritchie 's team worked under a handicap, although Stevens took Rielly's place and during the second quarter she took two nifty shots. The third period showed Vtfatts playing with Cashman as forward. These two forwards showed plenty of fight, but with Reddy and Olson as guards, they didn 't stand much chance. After the rest period a fourth quarter be- gan. During this period Darling's team piled up the score and at the blow of the whistle a score of 31-11 was announced. This was the last of the series of games by these teams because now the season had officially opened and steady practice is in store for the girls. The lineup was as follows: Rita Darling. f. ................... f., Anna Cashman Peg Deering, f.... ..... f., Tiny Stevens Nat Archer, c. .... ..... f ., Dot Watts Betty Donna, s. 4 Rita McMahan Mary Ready, g. .... cf., May Ritchie Gladys Olson. g.. .. s. e., Martha Reynolds g., June Ritehie g., Harriet Leavitt MARGARET DEERING. BATBALL Batball, a new and most interesting game, has been introduced at North this year. This sport involves many characteristics of other games. A team is made up of eleven players. The game can be played with more or less than the number required. After the teams have been elected, the first at bat commences the game with one of their number batting a small ball with her hand into the gym. The batter then runs around a goal, which is fifty feet away, and back. The players in the infield try to strike their opponent as he or she runs. Quite similar to basketball the Helders must not run with the ball. lf the batter is not struck out by the opposing side, he or she has scored a run for their team. Strikes, runs and fouls are counted the same as in baseball. This game provides an excellent sport for the junior girls because it can be played indoors during the winter season. Although the junior girls have taken part in this game, the senior unit has enjoyed watching them. ANNA UASHMAN. ROUND ROBIN TOURNAMENT The girls in the junior unit have, for the past two months, been carrying on -a Round Robin Tournament in batball. Much interest has been displayed by the girls. ln the seventh grade 146 girls came out for batball, in the eighth grade 11-1 girls, and in the ninth grade, seventy girls. The teams were selected from the divisions, and student referees and score keepers took charge of the games under the auspices of Miss Perkins. The seventh grade has played fifteen games, the eighth grade fourteen, and the ninth grade nine. As this game requires accurate eye work in batting the ball, and skillful foot work in evading it, it Q2 MANET has proven extreme-ly interesting to the girls. 'Each grade has now come to the finish of the fournainent with the following teams the rliainpionsz 7-1 over 7-12 with 17-13 score, 8-9 iver 8-4 with score 16-11, 9-4 over 9-7 with score 20-9. This tournament having been Qinished, the girls look forward to a successful oasketball season. ANNA CASHMAN. AS THE BACKS G0 TEARING BY fllah! Rah! Rah! Fight on, North Quincy, push down the held.
