Making much more room for Cramming us with lingos. All support the team by attending the games and cheering. Classmates, the next time do not turn around when Father stands up. You shouldn't let a lit- tle thing like that disturb you. The editor would invite contributors to leave their notes at his desk, but as yet he has not lo- cated that himself. We hear from Miss II—Is that “Andromache lost her countenance. How could she have had the face to do it? We regret to find so many of the old faces miss- ing. but arc glad to welcome so many new ones, especially that of J. M. G.

Teacher: Are you reading Homer's 'Iliad'?” Ken—dy: I'm trying to.” Well, here's to your success, anyhow. The class is well represented on the gridiron by Graves, Twohig, Jarvis, Fillmore, and McGregor. '07 Henry G. Doyle, Class Editor.

Normal kicked off to Jarvis, who fumbled but dropped on the ball. After a few short gains. Som- erville lost the ball on a fumble. Sharry was hurt, and his place taken by W. Henderson. Normal threatened our goal, but we held for downs. Nor- mal tried a drop for goal, but it was blocked by Hall. Soon after a punt by S. H. and L. was also blocked. The sensational play of the day came when a Normal man ran fifty yards for a touch- down. The goal was kicked, and the half closed with the score »- . In the second half Somerville kicked off to Nor- mal. Freeman replaced Henderson at end. After several long gains. Normal scored again, but failed to kick the goal. At this stage of the game Som- erville buckled down to work, and Young went •over for the only touchdown. The goal was kicked, making the score 11-0. The game was called on account of darkness. For Somerville, Young was easily the star, while O'Brien, of Normal, did good work for his team. The line-up:— BR11)G KW ATE R X R M A L. SOM FRY ILLE. Hoolev, l.e.....r.e.. 11.

Somerville, 30; Balden, 0 With the odds two to one against us. and the Malden team fresh from an overwhelming victory over Dorchester, the blue and gold, headed by the crack ex-Dartmouth end. Bullock, sailed over the muddy Mystic. and we swamped them. Our team never played better; the team work was great, the offense irresistible, and the defense a stone wall. Malden played a good game, but our heavier team mowed them right down, and hardly a rush from first to last but what laid out a Malden man. Malden kicked off to Baldwin, who ran it seven yards. Somerville soon punted. Malden lost around the end. and then punted. After plunges by Driscoll and Baldwin. Somerville punted, and Malden punted back to Twohig, who ran it twenty yards. Baldwin made eight: Commins, eight; Driscoll, ten; Commins, six; Hall went over for a touchdown and kicked the goal. With the same steady plunging and a 45-yard run. the second touchdown was made by Driscoll. Hall kicked the goal. Again the Malden team could not stop us. and Hall made another touchdown and kicked the goal. In the second half, although many subs were put in. the same fierce work was kept up, the men with the ball most always making more than their distance, and two more touchdowns were made by Driscoll and Commins. Hall kicked both goals. Twohig was back in the game for the first time since the Groton game, and played well. Driscoll. Commins. and Baldwin were always good, and Cuddy. Bowlby. Henderson, and Rice played fine ball. One of the features was Hall's goal-kicking. The line-up:— SC M ER VIIAJE. M A LDEN. II.

M SOMERVILLE HIGH SCHOOL RADIATOR 06 James A. Flaherty, Class Editor. At last we are Seniors! How many of us. as we look back over the past three years, can say. Eve been wise”: or do many say, It 1 had been wise ' The fact that class dues must be paid cannot be made too emphatic. Every Senior class that has gone before us has left some token of their esteem for this dear old school. and we must do the same. In order to do this, we must have money; so. Seniors, show your class spirit and pay your dues. Remember that there arc more ways of support- ing the Radiator than simply buying the monthly issue. If any one knows of a place to get an adver- tisement. tel! Lakin or Flaherty in Room ?! . The Senior class showed good judgment in elect- ing Dick Fernandez president. Dick is a fel- low in whom we all place great confidence. We are proud to learn that hair-haired Ruck ’ is president of the Athletic Association. Seniors are very slow in contributing class notes. Ask Ph—1—r—k whom he waits for every morn- ing. rain or shine. We are sorry that Winn is unable to return to school this year on account of poor health. Heard about the new club: Mae. Peggy. Annie, !Lu. and Gert. Mr. Whitcomb tells us that lie relies largely upon the Seniors to set the example of the school. Let us make our example a good one. lust notice that wise look the Senior assumes when lie finds himself in the presence of a Fresh- man. We notice that X—w—11 improves in every way but in the hair line. Even FI—h—rty has more than that. Where some of us expect to go upon leaving High School: Kernandez. Pitcher, and Reach. Tech: Gove. Houdlette, Dolbear. Tripp, and Savage. Tufts: Lakin. don't know yet : Water- house and Flaherty, to the college having the easiest exams ; Whitney, to the kindergarten. Nick—rs—n has chosen his latest from among the Freshmen. Heard in German: He rubbed his forehead or. the back of his head. What did Gove mean when he said in English: Quentin was wise when he kept his secrets from the women. 07 Walter H. McIntosh, Class Editor. We are glad to see so many of our old friends back, and heartily welcome all those who have come to us from the Latin School. I'he lunch counter’s motto seems to be, First come, last served ! A report has reached us that Doc M—sh—1! was seen walking up Pearl street with a young lady. We sincerely hope, however, that it is a false alarm. It is the wish of a good many pupils that Snow be kept off the corridors. Let all of us take an interest in our paper and make this year a very successful one. Lost, strayed, or stolen—Arnold and his note- books. Any one returning above-mentioned com- bination to Room 22 will undoubtedly be rewarded with a smile. The class is represented on the gridiron by Wil- liam Henderson, Ireland. Merrill, and McXeil. The Tech sociables are just as well attended this year in Room 22 as they were last year in Room 23. We are now upper-classmen. Let us prove our- selves worthy of the name. C hick Pr—tt was very much handicapped in carrying on his experiments in physiology because his mother objected to his playing with matches. We would be able to do much more at our class meetings if a larger crowd would attend. At a meeting held in Room 30 September 28. Joseph A. Parant was elected president. Let us one and all give the football team good support by attending the games. All class notes will be gratefully received.
