THE GOLDEN-ROD If» It is inevitable that an institution of learning should inspire some men and women to educate others; Quincy High is no exception. Carl Hayward, class of 1900, is a Professor of Metallurgy at the Massachusetts Institute of Technol- og)-. lie is a resident of Quincy, and President of our local Y. M. C. A. Pro- fessor Hayward, as you may recall, gave the Science Club a very interesting lec- ture on “Minerals” some time ago. Gunnar Carlson, class of 1917, is an instructor of Modem Languages at Up- sala College, East Orange, New Jersey. Allison Marsh, class of 1909, is a Pro- fessor in the Department of Education at Amherst College. Perhaps some of you will come in con- tact with Ililding Carlson, class of 190b, who is an assistant professor at Boston University. Quincy High School claims at least one Grammar School principal, Henry T. Prairio, class of 1904. Until recently, he was headmaster of the Cranch and Adams schools, but now he is headmaster of Adams, Webster, and Pollard Schools. In any civilization, religion is an im- portant factor. We should point with pride to three religious leaders that Quincy High School has turned out. Per- haps some of you know Reverend Harry Hooper, class of 1900. He is a Uni- tarian minister in the neighboring town of Hingham, Massachusetts. Then, in the opposite corner of the world, we find Reverend James B. Ma- honey, class of 1902. He is a Jesuit priest and is doing his life’s work in the far off Philippine Islands. A little nearer home is Stanley Sher- man, class of 1908, who is a Congrega- tional minister in Franklin, New Hamp- shire, under the shadow of the beautiful Mount Monadnock Quincy High School looks with pride to other public benefactors from among her graduates. Many of us know Rich- ard Ash, M. D., class of 1912. Dr. Ash has married and settled in Quincy, and has a large practice in this city. Harold Marsh, class of 1910, is a physician in the Mayo Hospital, Madison, Wisconsin. This hospital, some of you may know, is one of the two hospitals founded by the Mayo brothers. John MacClure, class of 1906, is the owner and proprietor of a meat market in Atlantic. Irving Badger, class of 1907, and his brother are the owners and proprietors of Badgers Garage on Adams Street, Quincy. Fridolf Peterson, class of 1910, is a graduate of Boston University. He was in France at the outbreak of the World War and saw nine months’ service in the army in 1918. After the war he returned to America where he has taught in many schools. At present he is an instructor of French, Spanish and Algebra at Bos- ton English High School. Thomas Larken, class of 1907, is the way foreman at the Fore River Yard. He
