Portland High School - Totem Yearbook (Portland, ME)

Text from Pages 1 - 134 of the 1938 volume:

THE TOTEM 1938 I ffiheme: Shzjas One ship drives east, another drives west 'While the selfsame breezes blowg 'Tis the set of the sail and not the gale That bids them where to go. Like the winds of the sea are the ways of fate As we journey along through lifeg 'Tis the set of the soul that decides the goal And not the calm or the strife. -R. R. Wi'llz'ams. VOLUME XVIII PUBLISHED BY THE STUDENTS OE PORTLAND HIGH SCHOOL PORTLAND, MAINE vlan- FOREWORD Since that long-ago day when three fragile ships brought civilization to our shores, ships and shipping have played important roles in the mold- ing, stabilizing, and the development of our nation and of our city. There- fore, a more perfect theme could not have been chosen for the TOTEM, which has figured so prominently in our school life since its first publica- tion in 1921. h Our TOTEM-a book as vital and necessary to the life of the school as were ships to the progress and development of the people of early Portland-an indispensable tradition. And, even as clipper ships have given way to trim yachts and streamlined cruisers, so our TOTEM has, each year, become more complicated in structure. It has required more thought, more originality, and more care to produce a book as seaworthy as were those sturdy ships that once were Portlandis pride and joy. Like the giant ships of commerce that drop anchor in our harbor, some perhaps for but a brief interval, only to sail away to far-distant ports, so our students come and go, and, with the passing of 1938, must pass many of our priceless memories. But, even as each old sea captain had some cherished relic to recall his days of service on the sea, so this TOTEM, our log book, will ever take us back in memory to our happy four years' cruise. DEDICATION To this mighty stone building, its simple dignity symbolic of the spirit that is the virtue of all true knowledge, where twenty-one hundred strong we worked and played and grew, we dedicate our allegiance. To Mr. Lowe, our Principal, and to Mr. Libby, our Sub-master, who have given us of their friendship and store of wisdom, we dedicate our deep regard and respect. To the faculty, the rnoulders of our knowledge, the builders of our character, on whom have rested the burdens of our school, we dedicate our homage and appreciation, not forgetting those who have fallen while carry- ing the torch. K To those who must carry on-the students of the underclasses-we give all honor, whether they be those who have distinguished themselves in forensics, or those who have made more vital our school life through organizations, publications, dramatics, or fields of learning. To our athletes, whose valor and might are famed in song and story everywhere, we give our praises loud. Great have been the accomplishments of our predecessors. May we be considered worthy to carry on the torch, as in farewell we sing again: All honor to our Portland High, her glory 'we acclaim, H er prowess in the hall and field iinmortalize her nance. 1 IN MEMORIAM NELLIE M.

S., has sailed through one of the most varied and successful four-year periods on record. We have seen the phenomenal rise of our football squad. from a most disastrous campaign in 1934 Cof one tie and eight lossesj to a conference tie in 1937 and a no-loss season. Our basketball crew, with Coach Fitzpatrick at the helm. has gone aloft from a mediocre season in 193-1 to three conference wins and a State Cham- pionship! The Little Boy Bluesl' in 1935, beaten by one point for the New England Championship, were enthusiastically dubbed New England Co-Champs by the Press for their excellent sportsmanship. The members of our swimming team have gone overboard to splash their way to three consecutive State Titles in their four short years at Portland High. Our golfers have won two State Championships and have been undefeated in three years of scheduled play, while the reorganized tennis team has stroked its way to several victories. Coach XValch,s able debating combines won two State Championships and placed third in three successive New England Tournaments. Our log book is filled with thrilling records of the brilliant achievements of many of our shipmates in athletics and service organizations. Vilalter Quinn, Chester Dubowik, and Robert Campbell have gained a novel honor by being the only seniors who have achieved fame in more than one sport during the entire four years. Quinn, while a sophomore, won the George Tel. Vinall trophy for the best display of sportsmanship at the Bates Basketball Tournament. VVarren Blake. captain of his crew, is our only four-year swimmer. Mel D'Areangelo. Richard Carson, Bob PAGE TVVENTY-EIGHT l SENIOR ROOM CHAIRMEN Sitting: Mark A. Arsenault, Virginia Neal. Rita M.

GRADUATE Seymour, and Charles Ferris won letters in their sophomore year and have been very active in their respective sports for three years. Stanley Sharpe, Joe Fisher, Edward Botto, and john De Grasse have all played first-rate football, while Captain Joe Sabasteanski excelled in both football and track. Staton Curtis, Sidney COX, lietty Honan, and Gladys Bickmore, top-notch debater, have all seen service on the Red Cross Council. The members of the fair sex have contributed their talents to our alma mater, too. The girls' basketball and swimming organizations boast of such able-bodied athletes as Barbara Currier, Anna Cayia, Dorothy Blclsewin, Anne Libby, Beatrice Lucas, Rachel Knowles, Beulah McDowell, and Ruth Elliot. The girls of the class of 1938 were also instrumental in the formation and support of the Riding Club. The class has seen several changes in the faculty during its high school career. The passing of Miss Curtis. Miss Potter, and Mrs. Briggs has left a sad page in the record of our four-year voyage through the Sea of Learning. The absence of Miss Morse and Miss Marchant through retirement and the loss of Mr. Mclntire and Mr. Reiche because of promotion to better positions were deeply felt by their former shipmates. However, the addition of Mr. Sibson, Mr. Means, Miss lios- worth, and Mr. Flanagan to the faculty. and of Miss Conroy to the office force has brought revitalization to the student body. So, as we of the senior class look forward to becoming the 'iyoungest alumni, we say farewell to this our school, where the thoughts and experiences of the great have been handed down to ns and where the industrious have been duly rewarded. PAGE TWENTY-NINE BOARD OF MANAGEMENT Sitting: Robert Wilson, VVarren VVebster. Standing: Edward Silverman, John Curtis. SENIORS AGAIN SCORE HIT Hlceboundu-that is the word that describes the lives and hearts of the mem- bers of the Jordan family. The action of the play takes place in Veazie, Maine. The central plot concerns the mercenary, grasping Jordan family, who, as the play opens, are eagerly waiting the death of the wealthy mother, old Mrs. Jordan. Each member, save one, is hoping to inherit a large slice of her fortune. Only Jane, the faithful young servant girl who for eight years has been with the old lady, feels any regrets about her condition. Mrs. Jordan fools the whole family by leaving her entire fortune to Jane. Com- plications arise, however, when Ben, the black sheep of the family who is hiding to escape prison, arrives on the scene. jane saves Ben from prison and reforms CAST Henry Jordan ...' .... . .. ...... .......

Standing: Melvin Epstein, Warren VVebster, Samuel Goldstein, Harry Forman, James Greely. SENIORS AGAIN SCORE HIT him. She herself half supports the shiftless family with what she makes the farm earn. At last, the time comes when she calls the whole family together, including the helpful Judge Bradford. She informs them of old Mrs. -lordan's real wish in regard to the execution of her will. Jane then transfers the property to Ben, and the final scene reveals Jane and Ben, who have become deeply attached to each other deciding to share their lot together. Twelve popular members of the Senior Class comprised the Dramatis Per- sonze,', each demonstrating histrionic ability. As always, the honors were due to Mrs. Pearl C. Andrews for her tireless efforts in putting on another successful play, and to those who contributed their time and talents in managing our 1938 play. CAST Ben Jordan ....... ............... ........

They're capable! They're keen! They're active! NVho? Why, the Junior Class, of course. That's the class you've been hearing so much about. At the first of the year, you remember, the class elected its room chairmen and officers. They made excellent selections, for they choose john Jaques as their president, John Craven as their vice-president, Philip Yanier as their secretary, and Philip La Rou as their treasurer. The executive board consisted of students, not only capable, but willing. Next, the football season came along starring Cecil Hinds who will be next year's captain, and including as stalwart players Tony Peverada, Joseph Nappi, John Griffin, Fernando Giobbi, Edward Amato, Ralph Amergian, Philip Lawson. Philip Vanier, and Vtlentworth Rodgers. As soon as the football season faded out, basketball came to the fore, with Edward Amato, Thomas Lawson, .loseph Crozier, and Philip Vanier leading the Junior parade. Coach Corey had a speedy bunch of winged Mercuries, including Edward Montgomery, Francis Murphy, James Niles, Raymond Kane, Lyman Lamson, Louis Smith, John Carland, Francis Donahue, and Robert XVeisman. The swim- ming team boasted of such members as Nunzi Giampetruzzi, who came out second in the State Meet, and is co-captain with Bernard Samuels for next yearis team: Cecil Hinds, who was second in the 50- and 100-yard, Charles Griffin, who won the 220-yard for the second consecutiveyearg Chester Beale, an ace backstrokerg Bernard Samuels and George Sullivan, who were on the winning relay teamg and Harvard Closson, a diver of great repute. The tennis team had a good reason to boast of Donald l lerman's prowess, and Leon Caiola plays on our '38 ace golf team. PAGE SIXTY-TWO JUNIOR ROOM CHAIRMEN Sitting: Catherine Zukunft, Rachel R.

JUNIORS PROVE ABLE SEAMEN The Junior Red Cross Council was proud to acknowledge Margaret Crozier, Dorothy Moran, John Jaques. and Robert Hay as its members, while the debating squad consisted of such brilliant forensic artists as John Jaques and Katharine Keough. The Art Club members, Dorothy Dore, Ruth Lerman, Joan Dresser, and Sylvia Goldberg, also proved their Worth through their diligence in that organiza- tion, and many Juniors are in the honorary language clubs, Le Ccrcle Francais. and the Classical Forum. The Junior Prom committees included many outstanding workers. Entertain- ment was in charge of June McGrath and Shirley Dennison who are also members of the Executive Board. and orchestra arrangements were under the direction of Evelyn MacKay. Joseph Crozier had the tickets under his capable Wing: adver- tising was handled by John Craven and Thomas Lawson, and Lyman Lamson secured the services of faculty members for chaperons. The entire staff ot othcers decided on the effective decorations used in the boys' gym where the dance was held. A newly-formed orchestra, Larry Laneis, supplied the music. Another outstanding Junior event was the ring election, the class choosing one ring from a group of samples sent to the ring committee by local jewelers. The committee included June McGrath. Joseph Crozier, Nancy Randall, and Evelyn MacKay. Looking back to that September of 1935, we realize that although we entered P. H. S. in the capacity of cabin boys. we soon qualified as able seamen. During our third year we were rated as First mates, but our eyes were ever on the captains berth. And soon we shall have our chance to prove our ability as able commanders.

SOPHOMORES SCINTILLATE The most progressive class in the school, the pride and joy of Portland High, the source of the Blue's future fame and glory, the Sophomore Class! - Once more the sophomore class has proved its worth by helping to send Port- land High School sailing forth to victory in herathletic encounters. Louis Botto, a prominent member of Coach l7itzpatrick's crack basketball crew, has many times prevented the Blue's opponents from scoring sure shots in Portland's basket by his timely blocking. Last fall. Botto also held down the position of tackle on our suc- cessful football team. Three sophomores, Harvard Closson, Paul Vinella,-and Robert Hellen, are turning out to be record-breaking mermen. Cecile Albert and -Ann Hersey are showing great style in the girls' swimming team, and since Ann has already won first place in diving for two consecutive years, she should do the same for her two remaining years at Portland High School. Richard Davis. Louis Smith, and James Niles are track letter winners. It is possible that with their help, Coach Corey can elevate his remaining track team to record-breaking heights. The spring baseball call was also answered by many hopeful position-seeking sophomores. Two students of the sophomore class, Despina Doukas and Timothy Osborne. show promise on the debating squad. included in our band. are Anthony Albana, joe Napolitano. Clifton Roberts, Orlando Sisti, Richard Davis. Irene johnson, and Floyd Pelletier. In scholastic ability, this class is outstanding-. The quarterlv reports show more sophomore names on the Honor Roll than any other class. With-such scholastic and athletic achievements, this energetic class moves on to its junior year.

FRESHMEN FROLIC TO FAME September saw the greatest enlistment of fourth class shipmates in history, and already they have established an enviable record for themselves. The time-worn elevator gag failed to impress its quota of freshmen this year. This, as well as the great number of four E students, is an indication of the fact that our newest shipmen are very superior. VVhile many boys reported for practice in football, the greatest athletic achieve- ment has been made in swimming. Three, Roland Gorman, Williaiii Merrigan, and Edgar Googins, seemingly accomplished the impossible when they made their letters. The freshman tumbling combine enlivened the Thanksgiving Rally and the football games. Stephen Macpherson and Fred Blanchard made their letters on the light- weight football team. Twelve youngsters answered the basketball summons and formed a successful freshman team. The baseball crew was also augmented by the several rookies, and VVilliam Berryman shows great promise, as does Hannigan. Girls' basketball proved to be the most powerful magnet for the athletic jemzes jillcs when thirteen reported. Tennis, as well as field hockey, also claimed its large numbers of enthusiasts. Several frosh tried out for positions on the debating crew, and Margaret Campbell won her letter and a mast-top perch on the squad. The public speaking classes contained many embryonic orators, and others are enthusiastically assisting the rejuvenated band and orchestra to attain new heights, while Carl Shaw and Angelo Ventresca sail over the high CSU at glee club rehearsals.

SAFE HARBOR ASSURED FOR TOTEM The Admiralty Board that directed, planned, and navigated, in order to insure the safe arrival of the cargo of the good ship TOTEM into the eager hands of its subscribers, was composed this year of the outstanding element of the senior com- mercial class. Named to the responsible position of Business Manager was Robert J. Campbell, prominent in athletic circles, and one of the most popular boys in Portland High School. Robert L. Stevens, a Stamp Club officer, was named Adver- tising Manager, and was ably assisted by John F. Peterson, secretary of the Winter Sports Club, and A. Robert Meserve, who was active in the Science Club, Glee Club, and News Highlights. The Circulation Department was headed by Virginia R. Neal, one of our musicians, Whose crew consisted of Dorothy Zimmerman, a member of the Glee Club, and Patricia Brogan, an outstanding student. The Business Board displayed an amazing energy in securing subscriptions by notices and poems in the daily bulletin, clever flyers attached to the windows on the seatroom doors, splendid posters prepared by the Art Department, and through an assembly at which all students were exhorted to purchase the TOTEM. Especial mention must also be made of the expert typists who prepared all copy for the printer. They included Anna VV. Cayia, Ralph A. Bailey, Anne M. Libby, Ruth H. Nelson, and Nancy Loomis. Too much cannot be said of the splendid assistance and cooperation given by Mr. Williain E. Chapin, head of the Commercial Department, without Whose aid none of the myriad financial problems of the TOTEM could have been solved.

TOTEM BOARD CHOOSES SHIPS AS THEME ' Under a new plan of organization this year, Co-Editors, Charles Ireland and Owen Durgin, were selected to guide the destiny of Portland High School's highly rated yearbook, the TOTEM. The first meeting of the editorial board, consisting of a versatile crew of such outstanding school personalities as Gladys Bickmore, Elizabeth .Honan, Marie Kahill, Margaret Kimball, Norma Stockbridge, Melvin Epstein, Sampson Grunes, Sidney Jacobson, joseph Sabasteanski, and Grant Thibeault, was held in the fall when future plans were made and outlined by 'the group for a larger and better volume. The central theme, Ships, was also chosen. Since that time, several other meetings have been held in order to discuss and collaborate on the thousands of words necessary to give this, the eighteenth consecutive publication of the TOTEM, a top rating in the National Scholastic Press Association in which the TOTEM is enrolled as a charter member. Many new ideas, such as a candid camera section to show student daily life and to provide a more suitable memory volume for the Seniors through the axiom that One picture is worth a thousand wordsf, and the new arrangement of the faculty section of the book have been put into practice as a result of the carefully planned, conscientious work of the editors. However, the editorial board owes a deep debt 'of gratitude to the cooperative student -body and faculty, and especially to the faculty advisers, Miss Ruth L. Sturgis and Miss Grace L. Dolley of the editorial board, and Mr. Cecil C. Farrar, in charge of the general mechanics. who by their untiring efforts in behalf of the publication, set an excellent example for our Editorial Board to follow.

LATE FINANCIAL NEWS The school' savings bank. under the supervision of its head purser, Miss Hilda Ek. enjoyed its most successful year in the past decade, and through its slogan of A penny saved is a penny earned' has virtually become an employment bureau among the students. The bank stands ready to handle all deposits from one cent to infinity. Tuesday has become a fixture in the school as the regular bank day, whereby money may be laid aside to provide smooth sailing for the thousand and one expenses of the average high school student. Each account draws interest, and students are privileged to withdraw their 111011637 at any time. Every account of one dollar or more is trans- ferred to a regular Maine Savings Bank account once a month. Besides greatly benefiting the thrifty-minded students, the officials themselves receive valuable train- ing and experience which should aid them in the professional world. These officials were: Beatrice Lucas, Martha Lindblom, Stasia Lukza, and Dorothy VValp. Wfednesday, Thursday, and Friday have been designated as TOTEM bank days, during which time a student may pay for his TOTEM in small installments. After the initial subscripticn of fifty cents has been paid, a card is issued to the subscriber. Every time he makes a payment, the amount is punched out, thus showing the amount he still has to pay. A duplicate card is kept in the bank. The special tellers who were appointed to handle this work have naturally been highly efficient in their duties. They include Dorothy McLewin, Irene Moran, Martha Presnell, Mary Valente, Nancy Lancia, Frances Zappia, Anna Cayia, Gladys Wfhitney, and Virginia Mitton, all outstanding members of the Commercial Course.

' After appearing for forty-five consecutive years, the Racquet, Portland High's monthly magazine, gave place in 1933 to H iglzliglits, a page of high school news appearing once a week in the Portlaiid Evening Etrprers through the courtesy of the Gannett Publishing Company. Gaining rapidly in popularity, this page continued through the seasons of 1933, '34, ,35, and l36. In the fall of 1936, however, space was reduced to Fivecolumns and.when school opened in September, 1937, five columns of Highlights were again welcomed, but shortly after Thanksgiving, the news came that 'fthe pagel, was to be discontinued as a result of changes being made on the E.rp1'e.rs. However, our beloved Highlights went out in the proverbial blaze of glory, for the Thanksgiving issue, on which K'Chick,' Ireland and Owen Durgin collaborated as co-editors, was judged by Ran Sanford, Exjvress adviser, the best-edited page of the four and one-half years this feature was in existence. Again this year the policy of shifting editors from week to week was employed. This naturally not only added variety, by the different styles of writing, but also spurred each editor on to try to improve on the preceding pages. The students who acted as editors were Charles Ireland, Gwen Durgin, john Reeves, Sampson Grunes, Robert Meserve, Margaret Kimball, and Philip La Rou. During its life, I-I'1fgh.hghts brought the alumni and friends closer to the school, and helped the various organ- izations to publicize their work and thus stir up interest among the students. Stu- dents are still hoping that next year, perhaps, Highlights may shine once more through some medium, since all agree that the page was of inestimable value.

DEBATERS PARTICIPATE IN FORTY DEBATES Although our young Daniel VVebsters were handicapped by inexperience, the Portland High School debating team had a fairly successful 1937-38 season. This year, the team participated in forty debates against Maine, New Hampshire, Ver- mont, and Massachusets schools. This included taking part in four tournaments: the Bowdoin Discussion League, the Southwestern Maine Tournament, the New England National Forensic League Tournament at Durham, New Hampshire 5 and the Bates Debating League. The season opened on Saturday, December 4, with the Bowdoin Discussion League. john Jaques and Timothy Osborne represented Portland High School and took fourth place. On February 5, the whole squad was entered in the South- western Maine Tournament at Auburn, winning four debates and losing four. The New England Tournament of the National Forensic League took place this year at Durham, New Hampshire, April 8 and 9, with fourteen schools competing. The Portland debaters, Gladys Bickmore, John Jaques, Despina Doukas, and Margaret Campbell, led the tournament through three rounds, but finally landed in third place close behind Fall River and VVarren, Massachusetts. Margaret Crozier took second place in dramatic reading, and Kermit Sanborn also came in second in humorous reading. The final round of the Bates Debating League ended the season at Lewiston, April 15 and 16. Cf the forty-two schools, Portland came in third. Gladys Bickmore is the only one of the first four speakers to graduate, so the debaters are looking forward with great anticipation toward another season's competition.

Durgin, Vice-President. SCIENCE ADVANCES A new organization was formally launched this year, designed to aid every science student to explore new seas and to discover more about the wonders of the world in which he lives. The Science Club conducted various sailings to industrial and scientific plants and held forum discussions in the school proper. Under the command of a capable board of strategy, and with Mr. Carl Stevens acting as faculty adviser, the club made a high-water mark in membership and activity that will serve as a measure for future years. Among its cruises for knowledge were a voyage to the Portland Weather Bureau, where all the delicate and intricate instruments used in forecasting were fully explained, and a trip to the National Biscuit Company plant, where all the machines, methods, and processes were demonstrated, at which the members greatly marveled. At another time, Mr. Roger Arringdale, an official seismologist for the Harvard Observatory, was entertained in home waters and gave a very interesting lecture on earthquakes and their causes. The last cruise to a foreign port was a visit to the Gannett Publishing Company, where the members watched a newspaper develop through its various processes of production. Moving into the niche occupied for several seasons by the Nature Club, the Science Club on its maiden voyage was so active that many of the older clubs had cause to envy the record of this supercharged model. The officers, who success- fully piloted her to this goal, are john Reeves, president, Owen Durgin, vice- president 5 Alice Delano, secretary, Earl Rackoff, treasurer, and Virginia Cooper, Stanley Freedman, and Sampson Grunes, executive board, all of whom are Seniors.

S. has done more toward creating a friendly spirit of giving than any other organization? You have it-the Junior Red Cross Council! This crew of sixteen welfare workers was under the direction of Miss Frances Haskell of the faculty, while Betty Honan as captain and Margaret Crozier as log-keeper showed their sailing ability by keeping the Council on a straight course 'through a very successful year. Gladys Bickmore had charge of publicity, and Staton Curtis and Sidney Cox were the other senior members. Of course, the one project which did most toward bringing to light thework of this organization was the annual membership drive. It was at this time that the students showed their appreciation for the work which the Council has been doing for so long. Then, too, there was the Thanksgiving drive for canned goods, which is conducted annually for the benefit of the needy. This drive was a decided success, greatly exceeding its goal of five hundred cans. The Council has as its adopted institution, Opportunity Farm in New Glouces- ter, Maine. Each year the members send gifts to these boys on all the important holidays, such as Christmas, Valentine's Day, and Easter. Every spring, the Council, accompanied by selected talent, make the voyage to the Farm to provide entertainment. A portfolio containing pictures of the school, of the State of Maine, of Ameri- can homes, and of the City of Portland was sent across the sea to the Council's friends in France. The splendid cooperation of the Council as a whole should assure smooth sailing for the coming year, as eleven underclass members are left to carry on.

Let the Hospitality Committee of the good ship P. H. S. be the Hrst to welcome you and start you safely on your four- vear cruise. If the members of this group do not meet you at the gangplank, ask for them. They may be found almost anywhere on the ship, for they are a hard- working set of officers always in demand. This year, piloted by their captain-adviser, Miss Lilla Stetson, and their com- manding officer, Samuel Greenberg, they arranged special activities for those making their first voyage. A glance at the log kept by Gladys Bickmore shows that their meetings were held twice each month in Cabin 205 on the second deck, and that the crew consisted of Owen Durgin, Mark Arsenault, Sydney Cox, Florence Heaton, Norma Stockbridge, and Mary Valente, all seniors. The first project they undertook was the publication of a small handbook designed to acquaint passengers with the ship's regulations and to explain the various types of sports, entertainments, and games provided for passengers of every class. Later, the less experienced travelers were invited to the main saloon, where the officers gave them more detailed information and encouraged them to take an active part in the life on shipboard. On another occasion, each officer invited a special guest to afternoon tea on the third deck. VVhen the ship comes into port in June, these officers will be promoted to higher ranks, and new ones from the junior class must be trained to fill their places. As they set sail again for various distant harbors, those with whom they have siled for four happy years bid them Bon Voyage. May the log be filled with their successes. PAGE SEVENTY-FIVE in aff .

CLASSICAL 'FORUM REJUVENATED Sailing across the sea to success, the Classical Forum is goingplaces with its new way of doing things. In the past years there were, yearly, three meetings which were in charge of the teachers of the Latin Department. At these meetings plays were given in the auditorium, followed by a dance in the Boys' Gymnasium. Although this method presented the members with interesting old-time Roman plays, it did not provide a chance for the friendship and good fellowship which appear in the 1938 programs. The new system is a great improvement over the old. This is how it works: The club is divided into three classes, sophomore, junior, and senior, and is open to all Latin students. Each class meets and works separately. Qfhcers are elected by the members of each class. A new committee of five is selected at each meeting to plan the ensuing program. Since the Forum is divided, the classes are somewhat small, but this is hardly a disadvantage. just the opposite! It is a great improve- ment. Because of its smaller size, the Classical Forum, in its new arrangement, gives its members a much better chance of becoming acquainted. A oint meeting of all the classes was held in the latter part of the year, at which movies were featured. A Frolic was held this year, as in previous years, in the Boys' Gymnasium. This is always a gala occasion, with balloons, noisemakers, streamers, good entertainment, and a good orchestra. The following officers were elected: Senior president, Charles Ireland, secretary-treasurer, Florence Heaton, junior president, John Jaques, secretary-treasurer, Mabel Jones 5 sophomore presi- dent, EdwardiPennellg secretary-treasurer, Shirley Spector. All proved eflicient. PAGE SEVENTY-SIX ART CLUB OFFICERS Jeanette Deering, Presidentg Virginia Murphy, Treasurer, Yvonne Archambeau, Secretary. UNDER THE NORTHERN LIGHT , The Art Department and Art Club of Portland High School have again pro- vided the School with excellent models of such work as can be done only by the talented hand, and have also displayed their work in a number of outside activities. Fire Prevention Week was vividly represented by posters made by Mary Head and George Libby. The newly-introduced silk-screen process was used in making the advertising posters for the Senior Class Play and the Annual Art Club Dance. Besides these, posters were created for the Community Chest and World's Fair, a nation-wide contest in which Yvonne Archambeau, Kathlyn McCarthy, and Robert Niles are entered. These posters are to be judged some time next year. The clever designers of the place cards for the Senior Class Banquet and the Teachers' Association Banquet were Jeanette Deering and Yvonne Archambeau. Our 1937 Christmas card was designed by Mr. Thompson, art instructor, because the students already had more than enough work to keep them busy. The art work for this year's TOTEM, consisting of feature insert pages introducing the different sections, is the accomplishment of Jeanette Deering and John DeGrasse. Our Junior Red Cross Magazine cover was designed by Arlene Gilpatrick. Illustrations for Book Week, which were displayed at the Public Library, were done by Ruth Lerman, Yvonne Archambeau, and Jeanette Deering. The last two girls also won the Art Club contest in which miscellaneous projects were entered. This year's class work was concentrated chiefly on the making of masks, first worked in clay and then cast in plaster and painted. These projects all show the real efficiency of these young Rembrandts as they cheerfully serve all branches of school activity.

You know if you haven't your 85? average in French, the schooner will ship without you, for Le Cercle Francais is strictly an honor society, established eighteen years ago with those requirements. Of course. this system decreases the number of members, but it is helpful in that it gives each member a delight in knowing that he has made the grade and that he can therefore enjoy the fun and good times which prevail at every meeting. It also encourages pupils who are inclined to shirk, to do their very best, so that they too may participate in its activities. The club is divided into groups, each holding monthly meetings, under the direction of one of our French teachers. These meetings are beneficial, because only the French language may be spoken at any time during the program, and French songs are sung, French plays are given, and French games played. This is an excellent test of the student's ability. This year the meetings were conducted in such a way that they were unusually helpful, and provided even more fun and enjoyment than formerly. At the end of the year, a joint meeting was held, at which time a dance was given in the Boys, Gymnasium. Sampson Grunes is the president of Miss VVelch's groupg Miss .l.3roe's group elected john Jaques as its presidentg Lorraine Darker is at the helm in Miss VVeeks' groupg and Robert A.

PI-IILATELIC SOCIETY GAINS IN POPULARITY The Philatelic Society sailed into the harbor ot Portland High in 1935. Since then it has given many hours of enjoyment and satisfaction to our stamp-collecting students, under the supervision of its able pilot, Miss Ella L. Pennell. At the first meeting of this year, the following members oi the able-bodied crew were elected: Annette Erlick, president: Robert Stevens, vice-presidentg Richard Keating, secretary g and Lloyd Kaler, treasurer. The semi-monthly meetings are held on the first Thursday and third Monday of each month. The program is planned beforehand by the different members. Those who have assisted in planning are Warren Webster, Lloyd Kaler, joseph Seigal, and Anna Weisenthal. Many stamp experts have addressed the club during the year, among Whom are Mrs. Frank Roberts, former president of the VVoman's Literary Union, who told of her trip to countries of Scandinavia and of the many interesting stamps seen there: Mr. Raymond Henley, former President of the Port- land Collectors' Club, Mr. Henry Wing, dealer in stampsg Mr. Sterling Dow, member of the l'ortland Collectors' Clubg Major Cummings, assistant postmaster of Portland, and George Hodgkins, dealer in stamps. At meetings, stamps are exchanged and special delivery, special handling, and postage-due stamps are dis- cussed. Club expeditions are held and prizes consisting oi stamps are given to the member having the most interesting and complete collection. Throughout the year prizes were awarded to Morris Storck, Timothy Osborne, and Richard Keating. The membership of this club is on the increase, for although postage stamp collecting has been more or less ridiculed, it has unquestionably held its devotees.

P On December 21, 1937, the combined Glee Clubs presented their animal Christmas gift to the school-the Christmas pageant. The pageant was in three scenes, with Marie Kahill reading the prologue, and Owen Durgin, the Scripture. The first scene opened with the angel chorus singing Silent Night, and the archangel announcing to Mary that she had been chosen to be the Mother of Jesus, the chorus in the, background singing the 'fSeraphic Song. Helen Papas as the archangel sang HHail Thoufl and Charles lllackwell concluded the scene with the singing of 'fAve Maria. The coming of the three kings, Timothy Osborne, Frederick Conte, and Fernando Giobbi, is the central theme of Scene Two. Before the opening of the curtain, Stephen Morse and Carl Shaw sang 'fCarol of the Shepherds, and Mel- ville Lait sang O Holy Nightf' The chorus sang six numbers as accompaniment to the action. The final scene depicts the Hight of the VVise Men from Jerusalem after being warned by God in a dream of the evil intentions of Herod. Stephen Morse, Carl Shaw, and the mixed chorus sang the familiar carols as the curtain opened. Ruth Burns, as Mary, had her only singing parts in her two solos, O Come Little Children and The Virginls Lullaby. Other solos and duets included Jesu Bambino by Charles Blackwell, O lifloly Babel' by Helen Papas, Away in a Mangerl' by Lois Peterson and Jean Percy, UI-Iymn for Christmas Day by Carl Shaw and Stephen Morse, the latter also singing Sleep, My Little Jesus.

This year has scen a great change in the Portland High Orchestra, both in the number and ability of its members. Vlihen Klr. Gaudreau, leader of the P. H. S. lland, took charge of the orchestra, he proceeded to obtain action. Students who had before kept their musical talents hidden were called for, hunted, and dragged from their hideouts, until the former enrollment of fifteen leaped to over thirty-five. Sixty-minute rehearsals were conducted every Monday and VVednesday morning in the auditorium. Fortissimos were built to startling climaxes, and pianissimos toned to soft clear pitches. The real test of this accomplishment will come when they render the overture and processional at the graduation exercises. The Band, during Mr. Gaudreau's second year. has also shown a decided increase in musical interpretation. The Band played at all the home games during the football season, thereby adding its share of zest to those festive occasions. It presented a concert as a part of the Alumni Night program in March, and at the Class Play in April. Combined with the Deering Band, it furnished music at the Cadet Ball on May 13.

Coveted awards were divided between Company B of Portland and the Deering Battalion, the former receiving the Ralph D. Caldwell Post, American Legion, cup for having the best company on the floor, the latter, the Harold T. Andrews Post cup for the best battalion. Captain Vernon F. Moody received the award for Company B. A medal was presented by a representative of the Elizabeth VVadsworth Chapter of the D. A. R. to Corporal George Panages as the outstanding non-commissioned officer in the Portland battalion, and Major Palmer made the presentation to Captain Moody as the outstanding officer. Edward C. Berry, chairman of the City Council, presented commissions to the battalion and regimental cadet officers during the evening parade, and Major Harry M. Savage, commanding officer of Portland, presented a gift to Major Palmer, head of Military Science in the Portland schools, in appreciation of his instruction. Portland's crack drill squad, 'KThe Queen's Men, gained much-deserved praise for their well-executed drill, performed entirely without verbal commands. Formations were made with snap and precision and elicited much applause. The combined Portland and Deering Bands, of one hundred and fifty musi- cians, gave a concert preceding the drill, the selections including: March, El Capi- ton, Sousa: Overture, Stradella.', Flotowg Intermezzo, In a Persian Market, Ketelby 5 The Glow VVorm,' Linlcig and the ever-popular Stars and Stripes For- everf, by Sousa. The grand march introduced the general dancing which followed.

BLUE BULLDOGS BATTLE TO CHAMPIONSHIP This year's crew of grid men, piloted by Coach jim Flanagan, has completed one of the most successful seasons in the history of Portland High School. They have tied with Thornton for the Southwestern Maine Conference crown, have won the Big Ten title, and are conceded by some the mythical title, Maine Champions. Portland opened the season by beating a green Deering eleven. A touchdown was scored on the first four plays. The scoring was done by johnny Murphy who plunged through the center for eleven yards and the score. The next Satur- day, Biddeford invaded the Portland stadium and was sent home badly beaten by a better Portland team. The heroes of this game were Dick Carson in the backfield, and Joe Nappi in the line. The gridders from Edward Little also went down before the powerful Portland team that scored almost at will. Leading the onslaught, were Tony Peverada and Louis Botto. The game with Thornton was the highlight of the season, ending in a tie. In the hrst quarter, the Maroon and Gold held Port- land in the shadow of their goal line by beautiful kicking. In the second quarter, Portland came down the field in a ISU-yard march to the two-yard line, but were prevented from scoring by an off-side penalty. In the third and fourth periods, Portland outplayed Thornton two to one, but could not score, and the game ended in a 0-0 deadlock. There were many stars in this game, but the ones that shone the brightest were Bob Campbell, Stan Sharpe, Lefty Griffin, and Cecil Hinds. In the YVestbrook game, Portland piled up an early lead, and although lVestbrook PAGE EIGHTY-EIGHT l THORNTON GAME A thrilling moment in the Thornton game. Number 3 is Peveradag Number 1, Sabasteanskig Edward Amato, leaping for ball. scored a touchdown, they were not once in doubt as to the outcome. The traditional battle with Bangor came on the following Saturday. The rams from Bangor held Portland, scoreless in the First quarter, but in the second quarter, Portland came back to score a quartet of touchdowns. Coach Flanagan had complete second and third elevens in the game for the greater part of the second half, using every player on the bench. Every scrub and yannigan covered himself with glory in one way or another, but the lion's share belonged to Captain Joe Sabasteanski and Wally Quinn. Portland beat the Fightin' Trish of Cheverus by two touchdowns, which came in the last period. A cleverly executed pass from Bob Seymour to Mel D'Arcangelo was good for twenty yards and a score. A 77-yard run by the same inspired Seymour was good for the other score. Chet Dubowik and Johnny de Grasse also did noble work in the ball-carrying department. A gallantly inspired South Portland High team held the vaunted Blue machine to a 7-'7 deadlock. Chet Dubowik was the big gun of Portland's attack, and Cecil Hinds did good work in covering up punts. The Thanksgiving Day battle was played in the usual sea of mud. A greatly improved Deering team held the Blue to a lone score and that was a perfect pass from Sharpe to Campbell that was good for 20 yards and the score. Although Portland completely outplayed Deering in this game, they were unable to score again. SCHEDULE Date Place Of7!7I?71U11ffP01'fllllZd Dafa Place OMv01zeutP01'z'land September 25.

Opening against the Bowdoin Frosh, they were marooned on the short end of a lop-sided score, although Captain McGlone and Carland stood out like lighthouses. The Hag was again placed at half-mast January 28th, as a strong purple horde from Deering rolled over the wreck of a championship cluster by a convincing margin. McGlone, Portas, Montgomery, and Weisman were just so many boys on that burning deck. Coach Corey and his weary men, however, suc- ceeded in holding a favored Red Riot outfit February 5th, before finally succumbing in the three final events. The usual few fought bravely, but in vain. Dropping anchor in foreign waters February 12th, at the Eastern Seaboard Relays in the Boston Garden, our one-lap relay won fourth place against the cream of the Eastern schoolboy crop. The team salvaged the debris of a jaded season when it barely defeated Thornton Academy, February 19th, in the final two relays. Lyman Lamson set a newlrecord of 1.26 Hat for the intermediate 600-yard run. The cry to aban- don ship was heard February 25th at the annual Four-Cornered' Meet, as the squad gained only third place. The year wound up in a belated burst of glory, March 12th.

HILL AND DALERS VICTORIOUS i Cross-Country, a sport recently inaugurated, continued to be successful this past fall, as Coach Ralph E. Corey's men waded their way through an auspicious season. With hopes apparently obliterated by graduation, Coach Corey went to work with only a handful of underclassmen and, before the final meet was recorded on the docket, had developed a splendid group of runners. VVeston Portas, John Carland, Raymond Kane, Harris Stockman, Gilbert Lawrence, Francis Donahue, and Merton Roberts were the hardies who comprised the squad. Opening against Gorham Normal, the Blue emerged triumphant, 16-48. VVeston Portas was first home, closely followed by his entire team. The squad went temporarily aground as the heavily favored Bowdoin Frosh eked out a 26-29 decision a few days later. Captain Portas again copped first. ln the next dual, with Bates furnishing the competition, the birth of a new star was recorded when diminutive Johnny Carland romped in second in a losing cause. Carland, who is enjoying his first year of run- ning, completely upset precedent in the season's climax, the Bowdoin Interscho- lastics, by losing only to the highly publicized VVatts of Deering. Due mainly to Carland's work, the Blue came in second, ahead of Deering, and topped only by VVinston. With four veterans returning next year, prospects are exceedingly bright.

LITTLE BOY BLUES AGAIN IN LIMELIGHT On December 23d, in a free-scoring battle, Portland trounced the Alumni, 53-472. The conference season opened the New Year, and in the first game with Deering, the Purple Club led until near the close of the game, when Portland rallied, tied the score. and then went on to win in the overtime period, 29-26. Portland won its second conference game against a highly favored South Portland team, when the Blue team came from behind to win by a sizable margin. Portlandls only defeat in conference play came at the hands of Edward Little and was Port- land's first defeat in twenty-two straight conference games. In their next game, however, Portland sailed through the Thornton team, leading 47-20. Un January 28th, Portland avenged its former defeat at the hands of the Eddies, when the Boy Blues came through to win, Ross and Fisher giving Portland the edge. The Xlestbrook club was helpless againt the superior Portland combine and was beaten, 36-13. Portland next met South Portland and, thanks to Quinn. Carson. and Peverada, again topped their opponents, 33-25. On February 18th. Portland again overpowered the Westbrook team and. on February 21st, again won over Thornton Academy at Saco, where Quinn found his eye to score 20 points. The final conference game with Deering was outstanding. Portland won the tilt and the Conference Crown, but lost to Lewiston in the llates Tournament held at Lewiston.

FRESHMAN ROOKIES SHOW PROMISE The team started its season with a nucleus of three veterans, Mel DlArcangelo, pitcherg Joe Labbe, elongated first baseman, and Bobby Seymour, fiiery catcher, being the Senior veterans around whom the team must be built. Other Seniors included Robert Fogg, pitcherg Charles LaRose, second baseman, john VValsh, shortstop, and john Donovan, left held. Several promising candidates have risen from the ranks of the underclasses. Jack Silverman, a Freshman, now occupies third baseg Robert Tanner, a Junior and would-be pitcher, center, and Anthony Peverada, also a Junior, the right field. Ralph Castellucci and Clarence Reed aspire to positions as shortstopg Joseph Crozier' hopes for an outneld berth g while Raymond Moffett and VVilliam Piacentini, Sophomores, desire to hold down second and third base, respectively. Five Freshmen showing varying amounts of promise are Vlfilliam Berryman and Robert Graff, potential catchers, Robert Crozier and Foster Fowler, pitchers, and Jack Hannigan, outfield. Portland started out with a 15-1 victory against a mediocre Biddeford team, Seymour stealing five bases, a league record. 'fYank,' Silverman, a Freshman find, also showed up with some nice stops at third. Portland next trekked to Deer- ing for a 6-4 lacing. Here the Bulldogs made only one stellar play, a home run by Foster Fowler, Freshman outfielder. From the Caper's new held, the Blues' were sent home with an 8-1 defeat, Joe Labbe starring. The league-leading Sanford club also proved too much for the Blue Bulldogs and again they lost, this time, 15-O. SCHEDULE Date Ofvpmzent Portland Date Of11v011e11fPn1'fla11d May 3.

The Hebron team was just a little too strong, and Portland lost their first dual meet in seven years. On january 29, Portland went to the Harvard Interscholastics and placed sixth mainly through the good work of Captain Blake, Ferris, Giampetruzzi, Griffin, Hinds, and Samuels. Portland had its first regular meet against Deering, beating them by a decisive score. Meeting both Edward Little and Brunswick in two meets each, they won all four. Then came Lewiston, and then Deering again. Both were soundly beaten. Portland had many stars and consistent point winners, among whom were: Captain Vllarren Blake in the 50-yard freestyle and in the relay: Nunzio Giam- petruzzi in the 100-yard breaststroke and in the medley relay: Bernard Samuels in the 50- and 100-yard freestyle and in. the relayg Cecil Hinds in the 100-yard freestyle and in the relayg Charles Griffin in the 220-yard freestyle and in the relay, Charles Ferris in the 220-yard freestyle: Chester Beal in the 100-yard back- stroke and medley relay: George Sullivan in the 50-yard freestyle: and Gorman in the 100-yard breaststroke.

GIRLS IN THE SWIM Once again the girls' swimming team under the leadership of Miss Madeleilie Kingsley, faculty manager, Rachel Knowles, captain, and Beatrice Lucas, manager, has brought honors to Portland High. The result of the Blue swimmers, efforts in their weekly practice was shown in the two annual meets with Brunswick High School, the score being 32 to 24 at the Bowdoin pool, and at the return meet in the Boys, Club, 37 to 18, both scores being in favor of the Portland girls. The season has developed some outstanding swimmers. Number One is Barbara Currier. free-styler with a record of seconds, who won the VVomen's State Champion- ship for the fifty-yard dash. Other highlights are Rachel Knowles, a close rival to Miss Currier, Dorothy McLewin, Marian Blake, free-stylers, Beatrice Lucas, backstroke, and Ann Hersey, our sole diver, whose skilled performances on the springboard won for P. H. S. the diving events in both meets. In addition to swimming for the high school, all the above-mentioned girls, as well as two others, Ruth Russell and Ann Libby, have the honor of swimming for the Portland Boys' Club team. In September, 1938, the point system will be extended to include swimming, and awards will be given as follows: For one hundred points, an award of numeralsg two hundred, the coveted award of Pug for three hundred, a blue blazer. The introduction of this system should prove an advantage to all members of the team, as it is a forward step in keeping with our new intramural system. Since the Portland High team is losing most of these valuable swimmers through graduation, it is with deep regret that it closes this successful swimming season. However, Portland High looks hopefully toward the newcomers whom the next school term will bring to light. May they continue to be in the swim.

S. are intra-mural and serve a noteworthy purpose-- that of enabling all freshmen and sophomores and such upperclassmen as so desire to take part in some form of physical recreation. The development of highly trained athletes is not attempted. but every girl is given an opportunity to do her best, and, to accomplish this purpose, teams are maintained in tennis, softball, hockey, basket- ball, and swimming. and instructions are also given in horsemanship. Therefore, the success of these groups may be measured, not by the number of victories or defeats, but by the interest, spirit, and sportsmanship shown by the various groups. Basketball held the particular attention of the seniors, and two teams were formed, HThe Blue Acesf' which included Jane Haley, Martha McCauley, Phyliss Potenzog Virginia Doukas, Estelle Fraser, Mary Gaynor, Eleanor'Kane, Mary Murphy, and team captain, Helen Stover, and The Blue Collegiatesf' represented by Barbara Catterson, Gladys VVhitney, Dorothy VValp, Eleanor Rounds, Yvonne Archambeau, Irene Moran, Catherine Curran, and team captain, Nellie Lee. To Nellie Lee also went the honor of being elected Class Captain. The school cham- pionship was won by The Blue Collegiates. About two hundred girls have competed in basketball this year. In addition to the senior teams already mentioned, the three lower classes were divided into squads for instruction practice two afternoons a week. At theend' of eight weeks, practice teams were formed and captains chosen. Games were thenplayed' according to the intra-mural program. The freshman Peacocks andthe sophomore f'Little Girl Bluesl' won for each class respectively. The Peacocks then won over the f'Blues.

INTRA-MURAL SPORTS FIND FAVOR This year, as an innovation, School Blazers were awarded at a special assembly, and are now the prized possession of Nellie Lee. Dorothy VValp, Phyliss Potenzo. Estelle Fraser, Martha McCauley, Helen Stover, Elinor Rounds, Barbara Catterson, Ellen Corbett, and Yvonne Archambeau as all-around athletes, and Dorothy McLewin, captain of 1937 Swimming Team, Rachel Knowles. 1.938 captain, Beatrice Lucas. manager, and Barbara Currier. Letter winners in basketball included Catherine Curran, jane llaley. Irene Moran, and Mary Murphy, and in swimming, Marion Blake, a junior, and Ann Hersey, a sophomore. In the fall of 1937, field hockey claimed the attention of all classes, although only two seniors, julia Bumps and Evelyn Call, were awarded letters. Practices were held at the stadium. Nellie Lee was the captain of the mixed team which played the only interscholastic competitive game of the season. Portland won, 6-3. Springtime brought tennis, and as a result of outstanding work, Edith Thorne, Gladys VVhitney, Miriam Lewis, and Catherine Flaherty won letters. One hundred points are required before any girl may receive her numerals. This year eight juniors were eligible, the list including Caroline Nally, 1937 presi- dent ot the Riding Club: Barbara Quinn, 1938 president, Lorraine Spiller, captain of Junior Class basketball team: and Ruth R. Russell, Jeanette VVood, Evelyn McKay, Marjorie Jenkins, and Elsie Austin. Sophomores winning their 1940 numerals on the one hundred point require- ments were but three in number : Alice Hinds, Priscilla Higgins, and Despina Doukas.

Henry XYicsenthal, SPRINGTIME BRINGS SWINGTIME Our 1937 boys' tennis squad opened its season against the Bowdoin lfrosb at Brunswick, May 6th. The match was cancelled midway as a deluge drowned the courts as well as the enthusiasm of the boys, who were gradually capsizing against the powerful Pale White onslaught. During the following two months, the team submerged Deering, 6-3, Westlirook, 6-0, and Morse by the same count. while dropping decisions to Hebron and Deering, 4-2 and 7-1, respectively. Prospects ot hauling in Southwestern Maine titular honors for the second straight year struck two snags in the personages of Chase and Anthoine of Deering as they paired to cop the tandem title, with the latter gaining the individual award. Herman of the local forces reached the final of the singles, while Ireland went overboard in the semi-final. The Blue was well represented in the Tennis Center and Maine State junior tournaments at the Portland Country Club in July and August. as Herman and Ireland were among the last four Maine players to walk the plank. This coming year, with Deak', Thompson, local tennis enthusiast. once again at the coaching helm, a fair team may be uncovered. Ireland, Herman. True, and Hyberts are the veterans returning for further duty. The rest of the crew will be chosen from Wiesenthal, Durgin, Greenberg, Gillis, and Cope. Matches have been docked with the Bowdoin Frosh, Deering, Hebron Academy, Bridgton Academy, Portland junior College, Edward Little, and Westbrook. A small delegation will be shipped to Ifort lfairiield for the State lnterscholastic Tennis Tournament. Scores now stand 1 Portland, S 3 Bowdoin Frosh, 1 g Portland, 7 3 Portland junior College, 2.

Previous to this time, and dating back to Sam's regime, the team had played its matches as an independent and self-supporting unit. llowever. ,before the school consented to recognize the linkinen, another flfirabassi, this time Frank, had to prove conclusively that the Blue was tops in this particular held. Frank, entering as a Freshman, headed two independent groups in 1934 and '35, during which time all the team's interscholastic matches were won by perfect scores. In 1036, Mr, Fitzpatrick took over the coaching berth, and the golfers achieved their long-standing desire for official support. Success continued unabated. and point totals and victories rose with monotonous regularity. State Championships were garnered in both '36 and '38, and Tirabassi snatched the interscholastic crown. This season, with both a new coach, Mr. Rosenthal, and a new captain. .Xrnold l'arker, the Blue shines brighter than ever. Opening the yearys warfare at the traditional Patriots' Day tournament, l'arker and his smooth-stroking men, includ- ing Leon Caiola, Emmett Corbett, and Donald Rich, pitched and chipped their way to the Scholastic Cup by defeating all other secondary schools. In their regular dual schedule thus far, they have defeated Brunswick twice, 5-1, ti-Og and have received a forfeit from Cheverus. lt just doesn't look as if they are going to losel PAGE NINICTY-NINE TEN NI S TEAMS .Front Row: Priscilla Higgins.

SWING IT The intramural sport of Tennis is becoming widely popular among the girl students at P. H. S., as the sport itself not only offers advancement in individual skill, but also gives satisfaction in competition with others. Seventy-five girls reported for at least six indoor practices and instruction periods during March and April. In May and june the Inter-Class Tournaments were held for the second team members and Freshmen team. Girls winning in the matches received twenty- five points towards their intramural award besides twenty-five points for attend- ance at practices or taking part as scorer or linesman. There are twelve girls on the first team with three reserves, eight on second. four on the Freshman team, and eleven beginners who have been chosen to continue with outdoor practices. The hrst-team girls have been practicing and playing each other on the indoor court in the boys, gy1n, and are now ready for advanced court work. Each girl will have an opportunity to play in one Inter-School match. These matches are held in late May and early June with as many opponents as can be scheduled. So far two matches each are scheduled with South Portland and Deer- ing girls. The beginner group will also have six outdoor instruction lessons to enable them to know the game and develop into future team players. The following girls are members of 1938 Spring Tennis Groups, First team- Seniors: Estelle Fraser, Miriam Lewis, Edith Thorne, Gladys Whitiiey, Catherine Flaherty, Stella Sakallaris.

BLUE MOUNTIES GALLOP TO POPULARITY In October, 1937, the 'fBlue Mounties 'started off to another successful season under the skillful guidance of Miss Mary A. Bosworth, faculty adviser, with a mem- bership of twenty-six girls, of which ten were new members. The officers chosen at the first meeting were: Barbara Quinn, president: Leah Kaatz, secretary: Mar- jorie Brewer, treasurerg Betty Honan, social chairman. This year the Mounties rode at the Plantation Stables. Cape Elizabeth, under the direction of Mrs. H. VV. Files. The requirements for the fall term were ten rides for all members, regular meetings, and dues once a month. The Hrst social event of the season was a Moonlight Ride and a Halloween Party at the clubroom. October 19th. This was followed by a treasure hunt, Novem- ber 5th, a competitive ride between the club members, November llth, and a dinner at the Tally-Ho, November 19th. jane Haley and Jane Quinn poured at a tea given for the parents and teachers on December 3d. A Christmas dinner was held Decem- ber 15th, at the Lafayette Hotel, during which gold pins were presented by Dorothy Rowe to Alice Delano, Rachel Knowles, Jane Haley, Betty lrlonan, Barbara Quinn, Katherine Graff, Leah Kaatz, Marjorie Brewer, Margaret Alexander, and Carolyn Nally. On December 6th, the Cheval Riding Club entertained the P. H. S. Club at a party in the clubroom. The spring term opened March ltith. The First social was a dinner given to the Cheval Club, March 18th, and on April lflth, Patriots' Day, the club took part in the first annual Parade of Portland Riding Clubs. Spring activities are now in full swing as special features are being planned for all the members. PAGE ONE HUNDRED ONE .Xs the Camlicl Camera Mau Secs Our Athletes: at left.McGlo11c Ilrcaks Tape.

Oh, didn't we tell you? But of course you knew it was big Joe Sabasteanski. However, six boys also rated well in class popularity, led by Chick Ireland, famed raqueteer, and followed by I man, Bobby Seymour, and Dick Carson. Quinn, D'Arcangelo. and DeGrasse, were bunched as runners-up. Those who followed Sabasteanski's Umph'l lead were Carson, Quinn, Robert Seymour, Higgins, and DeGrasse. Lift thine eyes above the rabble lest thou become detiledlv Yes, Robert Seymour, at last we've called your bluff, and you stand re- vealed as our superlative I love me man, and our biggest bluff. The Senior Class seems to be well supplied with HI men, none other than Vlfally Quinn, Sam Greenberg, Joe Labbe, and James Greely be- ing well to the fore. And as for blnffeaarl Maybe we didnlt get writer's cramp from listing votes for James Greely, Robert Stevens. and Bill Ross. Imagine our horror when we found Evelyn Call the fifth. Then came Greenberg, Quinn, Robinson, and last, Marie Kahill. If Betty Honan had no-t developed such a winning personality, it is probable that she would have been more closely pushed in the Popu- larity Race. As it was, she garnered a first by a margin of forty-two votes as being the most popular with the Senior class as a whole. Separated by one vote each, the next four girls were Reta Thorndike, Marie Kahill, Barbara Murray, and Gladys Bickmore. Such unanimous popularity can come only to these who have been active, not only in curricular, but extra-curricular activities as well, and they serve only to prove the rule. Greek godf' Blond Viking, typical American youth, he paces the corridors amid the sighs of his feminine admirers who range from lowly freshmen with senior aspirations, to his own classmates. Appar- ently oblivious to the heart fluttering he causes, handsome Galen Hyberts has quietly beamed his way to a stellar post as the Seniors' best-looking male, accorded this honor by pining damsels who just couldnyt resist voting for him. Wheli notified, he smiled, shrugged nonchalantly, and accepted the honor casually, while VValter Higgins, Thomas Walsh, and Joe Labbe, his nearest competitors, graciously conceded the title. Do ladies prefer blonds? This was almost a three-way tie, and for a time it looked as if we'd have to award three firsts, but finally Barbara Murray qualified as Portland's most popular girl, from the masculine viewpoint. Vivacious Marie Kahill also found favor.in their sight, as did piquant Miriam Lewis. Several of the boys remained loyal to the one and only, and so several senior girls had at least one vote. N. B. VVe will mail these sweet charmers' telephone numbers to any address for one dollar! One for Chick Ireland, one for Bob Stevens, and so on, far into the night. At length, surrounded by blunted pencils and reams of heavily scored paper, we wearily tallied votes to find that the only two in the running for most popular with the faculty and most useful to P. H. S. were the above mentioned. As the last vote was counted, it was found that Charles 'fChick Ireland had just doubled the number tallied for Bob. Uncannily, the count held for both superlatives. Of the girls most useful to the school Gladys Bickmore led by a margin of only eight over Marie Kahill, who topped Florence Heaton by four. Betty Honan and Margaret Kimball also have given good reports.

Sock! and another enemy play is effectively squelched. Polling one hundred and sixty-eight votes Wally's lead was never once even threatened. although there were a goodly number who felt that big Joe Sab and Dick Carson should receive top rank in our athletic Hall of Fame! However, VVally may now wear publicly the mythical crown which the world has given him. The young lady who has left a trail of broken hearts after flirting and coquetting through four years at dear old Alma Mammy is little Irish Ellen Conroy. But ten strides behind her were Evelyn Call and Mary Riley, neck and neck, and one panting pace behind was James Greely. But the girls had him three to one, and that's not to be won- dered at, for flirting has always been more or less of a feminine pre- rogative. Ellen is also most popular with herself, but, so they say is Mary Riley, the runner-up. It is also a matter of record that Marie Kahill, Phyliss Sutherland, and Margaret Kimball do not underesti- mate fheir inestimable qualities. Intra-mural sports have brought to light many potential Olympic stars, the one in the ascendancy at the present time being all-star Nellie Lee. Other record breakers were Barbara Catterson, Elinor Rounds, Estelle Fraser, Helen Stover, Martha McCauley, Phylliss Potenzo, Barbara Currier, and Rachel Knowles. Many are interested in varied sports, although some are simply tops in their line. Everyone to his taste is a familiar saying, but evidently the taste of P. H. S. Seniors is rather unanimous, for the ballots showed that dainty, charming Katherine Flaherty was over fifty points ahead of Deltha Randall in the pulchritude pageant. San Hagerman was a third in the parade and Ruth Nelson and Ann Libby were tied for fourth place. The only other Senior to place was Mary Riley. Turn now to the Senior Section and pick yum' winner. We offer styles, types, and sizes to suit every taste. Satisfaction guaranteed! Steer clear of work and take a rest As long as the waistline fits the vest. The above is the motto of languid Bill Ross, voted the biggest loafer in the class of 1938. When interviewed, he remarked in a leisurely manner, 'fReally, I Inzfc work, it fascinates me. I can sit and look at it for hours. This noble sentiment was soundly seconded by alert and vivacious Yoland Potter and Gerald Filieau. It is also rumored, though undoubtedly 'tis false. that Jolm VValsh, XN'arren VVebster, and James Greely are also of the same opinion. N. B. No girls qualified!

And were we surprised when guile- less Melvin Epstein polled second, Eppie, whom we had fondly believed to be above pernicious lobbying! Imagine Eppie kissing babies! Or for that matter Bobby Seymour, James Greely, Solicitory' Goldstein, Sammy Greenberg, or Edward Oransky. It's past belief! PAGE ONE HUNDRED THIRTEEN -.af JOHN F. CRAGG, Pres. GEORGE F.
