T. A. Gym Exhibition, the Class Play, the P. T. A. Speaking Contest, and will play at Graduation and Class Day which are not far off. There are many players in the Junior High Orchestra who will join us next year. This is a year that every member of our class will remember. And we are the largest class ever graduated from Scituate High School. Our first class meeting of the year was given to the election of the following class officers: President, Arthur Damon; Vice-President, John Driscoll; Secretary, Joan Breen; and Treasurer, Dorothy Hardcastle. Miss Dudley was elected class adviser. The class elected Dorothy Hardcastle as the candidate from the school for the Good Citizenship Pilgrimage sponsored by the Daughters of the American Revolution. We seem to have an all-around class as far as sports are concerned. The athletic teams were composed almost entirely of seniors during the past season. There are many in the class who are looking forward to being members of the baseball and tennis teams. Dorothy Hardcastle was awarded the high honor of Golden Eaglet in the Girl Scouts this year. We are all proud of her and wish her continued success! She is the first Scituate girl to obtain this award. Owing to the large enrollment of our class, the Seniors occupy two home-rooms. The home-room teachers are Miss Dudley and Mr. Atkinson. On October 28, the Seniors held a social for pupils of the Junior and Senior High. A pleasant evening was enjoyed by all who attended. John Driscoll, who recently took the competitive examination for one of six scholarships offered at Tufts College, has received a letter stating that, according; to his rating in the examination, he is one of the candidates who are eligible. The scholarships, which provide full tuition for four years, are offered to students in any of the New England States, and this year six hundred took the examination.
