Senior Class History FOUR exciting years have elapsed since a group of eager boys clustered about the desks of Mr. Coen and Mr. Flajole in the two divisions of First High, and relentlessly bombarded them with a multitude of questions concerning their future “Alma Mater. However, we of the class of “34” soon quieted down, and casting aside the timidness which first hindered our progress, elected class officers. Hynes was chosen as president of the A division, with DeDonato as a capable secretary-treasurer. Sifferman was the legislative leader of the B class. Mr. Coen and Mr. Fla jole were our moderators, and won our hearts through their patient work. The year passed quickly, and our athletes and scholars coped successfully with the champions of other classes. Our second year class officers were much the same as the first, except that Kossel replaced Hynes as the helmsman of 2A. Jim Thompson, the butcher-boy transfer from St. Martin’s, bolstered our prestige and convinced the students that the only real men arc those who carry their lunches in “scuttles.” Consequently, Ed McCullough became famous for his thermos bottle, and throwing lunch boxes at each other became the favorite pastime of “the boys.” As Juniors we assumed the dignified role of upper-classmen with characteristic ease, and proved ourselves to be true aristocrats. A number of new lads joined us this year, chief among them were Robert “One Punch” Hurd, David Carey, Bruce and Jim Hannon, Dick Cahan, Bruce Fitzgerald, P. McGuire, Pishue. The new teachers to be associated with us were Messrs. Burris, Dowd, Dussault, Carmody, Sweeney, O’Hara. There was a rumor circulated among the boys that Mr. Dowd lived solely on his “Model English textbook. While this is doubtful we feel certain that it was at least an important part of his menu. Our basketball and indoor ball teams won the intramural championships, and a majority of the class participated in other athletic activities as well. At last our final term arrived. How proud we were, how we gloried in the title of “Seniors.” Our forces were joined this year, and we labored together to achieve further glory. Our new teachers were Father Nichols, Father Prange, and Mr. Marshall. Non-chalent Bill McFadden from Bellarmine High was welcomed to our roster, Ruddy Carlow commuted daily from Bremerton for a semester, and the term passed quickly and successfully. And now we are ready, the world is before us. We have imbibed the spirit of our teachers, and are prepared for higher things. We thank all those who have proven to be our friends and associates, and bid a fond farewell to all. W'AL I' NI I'SCHE, ’34.
