The call for football candidates of September 15 by Captain McCoy was responded to by about twenty men. This number has rapidly increased to over forty. The outlook is very encouraging. Several of last year’s men are again to be depended upon, and the new material should well fill the va- cant positions. The squad is rapidly rounding into shape under the able instruction of Coach Edward M. D’Almcida. who has again been selected to coach our pigskin chasers.

20 SOMERVILLE HIGH SCHOOL RADIATOR A plumb line is one which points directly to the South Pole.—Scottron's Plane Geometry. Master Hughes says he has but one wife. YVe are so sorry, and he is getting old, too. We note several prominent class members among the candidates for the football team. And where did he bury it?” the interested teacher asked. In the ground.” the prosaic youth answered. (The teacher collapsed.) The Normal girls can’t take manual training be- cause—why. simply because their studies would be- come abnormal. Geom. A already has a class artist in the person of Master Groves. Pupils of Division A are beginning to find out that it is better to learn their poems than write them several times for not learning them. Bradford—‘Tch bin ein kind. ‘T am a child.” readier— Yes. Class organization: President. Joseph Whitaker: vice-president. Miss Marv Edmands: secretary. Miss Edna Gordon; treasurer. Edwin Weaver. Whereas, by the divine will of God, our class- mate, Edgar T. Walker, has been bereaved of his mother; and Whereas, we. the class of 1905, have learned with great sorrow of his affliction: be it therefore Resolved, that we tender him our heartfelt sym- pathy in his great sorrow : and be.it further Resolved, that a copy of these resolutions be sent to Edgar Walker, and also published in the Radiator. Joseph W Whitaker, President. George E. Robbins, Secretary. 1906. Class officers: President, Alfred L. DeXoyer; vice-president, Marion E. Bemis; secretary, Albert L. Newell: treasurer, A. Louise Lcyland: execu- tive committee. Edward T. Coleman; editor, ’00, John Hall. The Freshmen may be slow, but they had their class officers elected a week before the Sopho- mores. The girls arc ahead of the boys in basket ball. They have their team formed and are practicing. Yet the boys wish them victory, though we can- not go to cheer them. The Freshman team, ’06, wish games with any team their size. Apply to Edward Munroc. Room 15. E. H. S. If it takes three boys five minutes to open a tran- som in Room 12, how long would it take them to open a window? Support the class football team. MISS ELIZABETH CAMPBELL.

This is the largest Freshman class since the divi- sion of the school in 1895. Freshman! Keep your eye on C--------v! He may not be worth a dollar, but lie’s a good quarter. The earth must have a greater attraction for a certain boy in Division f than for most people.

October 7 the boys met a team from Watertown High that surprised them. Watertown played a •League game. strong, aggressive game, and followed the ball in good shape.

Somerville soon held, and Papkec punted to Currier, Burton went around right end for ten yards, but Allen lost the ball on a fumble. Again Medford punted, Hafford, who secured the ball, running it back twenty yards by clever dodging. Countway went around the end for a touchdown. Burton kicked the goal. Medford kicked off to Burton, who ran it back twenty-five yards. McLaughlin and Allen tore through the line for ten yards. A clever quarter- back kick netted fifteen more. Here Somerville was penalized, and with the third down and ten yards to gain. Hafford dropped back for a placed kick. The ball was snapped to Currier, who held it in position, and Hafford kicked a fine goal from the twenty-five-vard line. Medford again kicked off to Burton. Hafford kicked to Medford. Medford failed to gain, and was forced to punt. After a few exchanges of punts, time was called, with the ball on Medford’s twelve-yard line. In the second half. Cuddy received the kick-off. and ran it back fifteen yards. Somerville punted to Papkee. Volpe gained ten yards, and Papkee twenty more. Dutton hurdled our line for the re- quired distance.
