ime5 owe Czcmge Did you realize that ten years ago, although the Class of '34 graduated. in a year of peace, its members were, for the most part, born .during the first World War and were destined to play a prominent part in the raging conflict now taking place? Of the number now proudly serving their country, perhaps the most prominent is Captain Leroy Schreiber. Ten years ago he was doubtless an uncertain and bashful senior in the Plymouth High School. Now he is a fearless pilot who has already been decorated for his gallant service. We grumble about gas rationing and complain about the fun other high school seniors had when there were no gas restrictions. But, looking back, we see that they, too, had their troubles. For ten years ago money was scarce and jobs were scarcer. Although there were gas and tires available, few pupils could afford a car. Our curriculum is approximately the same as was provided for the Class of 1934, but war conditions have made it necessary to offer six new subjects, which, 'tis hoped, will help to prepare us for both a World at war and a postwar world. Ten years ago a senior boy expected to graduate and go to work, but six of our classmates are already in the armed forces- and many more will be directly after graduation. At this time we should like to pay tribute to the members of our class already in the service: Milton Fuller, Joseph Leandro, Frank Dunlap, Ralph Ghelli, Walter Roberts, and Warren Kourtz. We are justly proud of Ted Collas who left us for service in the armed forces during his junior year. Ten years ago the Senior Class chose for class oflicers Law- rence Bongiovanni, president, William Brewster, vice-president, Florence Armstrong, secretary, and Marion Zandi, treasurer. Now Lawrence Bongiovanni has returned to school as a substitute teacher, and William Brewster is serving his country in China. Florence Armstrong and Marion Zandi have both married. Another prominent member of the Class of '34 was Shirley Dutton, who in that year wrote All Hail to Plymouth High , which still serves as the school song. The sports activities of our class and the Class of '34 were quite similar. While ten years ago the players were transported by bus, we journeyed to all our games by automobile. The Class of '34 had a very successful basketball season, winning all its scheduled games with the exception of two, but suffering defeat in the semi-iinal round of the tournament at Brockton by Abing- ton, who went on to win the tournament and gain permanent pos- session of the Kiwanis trophy. On the other hand, its football team had a most disastrous season winning one, tying another, and losing six games. Under Coaches Bagnall and Smith the school also had an excellent baseball team and a splendid trackn teams Very probably the most prominent athletes of the time were Babe James, Art Strassel, and Dunham Rogers. ' It has been said that comparisons are odious, but they can be interesting-and illuminating. WILLIAM MACDONALD Page 31
