Keyes, and Freeman. Three meetings have already been held at the home of the president. Bergen Reynolds. ()n the night of October 8 a rush party was ■Id. and after a business meeting was held, the ks” entertained their guests as only members .e Gamma Kta Kappa can. Songs and frugal j .reshments made the time pass almost too quickly, when it was found that something was missing. A delegation at once left the house, and returned with Mr. Murray, one of the most popular teachers in the two schools. It was a thoroughly satisfied crowd that dispersed at a late hour. Those invited were: Brine. L., '00; 1 ’routy and Sharry. L., ’08: Cuddy. E.. ’08: Merrill and Hen- derson. E.. '07: L. Bowlbv and Bcnway, L.. '07; Coan, E., '06; A.

Z k jfra tetnUy Bailee All those who were fortunate enough to attend the Fraternity dance at Anthoine’s last December will be pleased to hear that it is to be repeated this year. The three clubs then interested, the L. E. D., S. T. I)., and Kappa Phi Eta. have appointed a joint committee, who have all arrangements per- fected, and expect an even greater success than be- fore. The dance this year is to have many unique fea- tures, and will take the form of a Rose Party. This gives ample opportunity for the beautiful decora- tions. which will far surpass those of last season, and they were considered the prettiest ever put up in the hall. All the clubs and fraternities of the High Schools, both graduate and undergraduate, arc o be invited, and the date. December 28. which comes during vacation, will make it convenient for all con- cerned. It is to be a subscription party, the number of in- vitations positively limited, and obtainable only from members of the three clubs, or the secretary.. Roger V. Pettingell. of 106 Highland avenue, be- fore December 1. The committee in charge of affairs is as follows: Misses Ethel M. Snow and Florence M. Reed, of the L. E. D.: William A. I.afield. Jr., and David L. Countway. Jr., of the S. T. 1).: and Chester L. Nve and Roger Pettingell. of the Kappa Phi Eta Club. ■ •——-— Caiuicnicbts The Taugcnichts began the season as they ended it—with an afternoon dance in Odd Fellows Hall, Saturday. September 23. Refreshments were served at Pearson's. About twenty couples were present, and were chaperoned by Miss Palmer and Miss Fowler. ----------------------------- IT be jf. lb. fl . fraternity After a most strenuous vacation, every member of this charitably-inclined organization is back and ready to renew operations with the same character- istic enterprise that so distinguished the ”frat last year. A rumor was circulated that the stocky centre of Somerville High had left the club. We desire to state that this rumor was entirely without foundation. Who. we ask, could fill the gap in our ranks if he should desert us? We are glad that the greater part of the club has no intention of leaving, which speaks well for the F. II. P. Two new members have been admitted, who. after a se- vere examination, in which neither time nor ex- pense were spared, were found worthy to be our brethren. S. T. Jarvis needs no introduction, while John Leavitt, though diminutive in stature, and un- assuming in appearance, well deserves to boast of membership in our far-famed fraternity. The apartment where the club has its rendezvous is small and unpretentious, but it's our little home; just the same.

i6 SOMERVILLE HIGH SCHOOL RADIATOR Ercbauoc iRotes Among the exchanges we have received are: The Advance, the Advocate, Xeedham, the Advo- cate, Saugus, the Argus, Harrisburg, l’a.. the Argus. Holderness. X. II.. High School Bulletin. Crimson and White, the Clarion, the Colby Acad- emy Voice. High School Gleaner, the Hyak. the Imp. the Index, the Jabberwock. Junto, the Look- out. the Mirror, the Observer, the Oracle, Pennant, the Recorder, the Latin School Register, the San- born Echo, the Lowell Textile Journal, the Til- ton ian. the Varsity. As this is the first number of the Radiator, no exchanges have as yet been sent out: but we hope to exchange with all those who were on our list last year. The Enterprise, Roxburv. and the Oracle. Pan- gor. are interesting papers, but the absence of an exchange column is noticeable in both. We wish to compliment the Spectator on its ap- pearance. and also its reading matter. It is one of the neatest of our exchanges. The cuts in the Racquet. Portland, are excep- tionally good. The A. IPS. 'I'idings has a large alumni column, which adds greatly to the interest of the paper. Panorama, why not shorten vour club notes and put in more short stories? We agree with the re- marks of your editor as to the use of an exchange ■editor. 'fhe College Signal is cordially welcomed bv the editor, also the Skirmisher. Bordcntown. X. J. Ihe Senior. Westerly. R. I., contains a very bright little article entitled The Diary of a Fresh- man. Skirmisher. San Mateo. Cal., a few short stories would make your paper much more attractive. The Tramp. in the Stator, promises to be very interesting. What a fine list of exchanges. Stator! A few cuts would greatly improve the Latin School Register. ----------------------------- HI timui iRctes Great praise is due Charlie Cuddy, E., 00. for the masterful way lie has conducted our athletics during the last few years.

IS SOMERVILLE HIGH SCHOOL RADIATOR S. O. ID. Club The S. O. M. Club held its first regular meeting of this school year at the home of I. Leo Bryan Tuesday, September 12. at which the election of officers took place. The officers elected for the en- suing year were: President, Carlton Gorman; vice-president, Edwin Freeman; secretary, I. Leo Bryan; and treasurer. Aaron I». Noyes. Gorman and Noyes were unanimously elected, the former because of his aptitude for putting a check on all Xoysie uprisings and half-Cooked debates, and the latter through his wonderful antipathy for holding on to money. 'Hie treasurer's report was accepted with thanks; the strong box was overflowing so that he had to open a bank account. A few events were placarded, at which the usual good times are expected. At an early hour Trenholm moved ad- journment to the dining-room. The Cambridge curfew was ringing when the weary lads wended their way homeward. --------------------------- IDass iDccthui ()n the morning of ()ctober 27 a mass meeting was held in Broadway field to practice cheers for the Malden game on the following day. ---------— ■ - jfootball Sono Dedicated to the football team of 1005, by H. 1’.

Show them that our boys can play, you will surely win the day. Somerville, Somerville. Do ’em. do ’em. plow right through ’em. Somer- ville. II. A squad of hopeful juveniles from Malden came across. Somerville put those Malden children off the field by force. They gathered up their blue and gold, and went away much vexed. And now the boys of red and blue arc waiting for the next. “When You Want Something Good to Eat. Visit Mrs. Morrison’s Opposite the TWO SCHOOLS CHORUS. Somerville.

I lie next that came to try its luck was Boston English High; We did for them, and now they’ve gone to hide- away and die, A sadder, but a wiser, lot went back to whence they came: If English High was asked the score, she’d drop her head in shame. CHORUS. Somerville. Somerville, Boston does her best to win. and to beat her is a sin. Somerville, Somerville, Rush ’em. rush ’em, backward push ’em. Somer- ville. IV. From Dorchester there came a band, all uniformed in red. They said they’d come to cat us, but we gobbled them, instead: When the game was over and the wounded dragged away. The men of red were beaten, and had nothing more to sav. CHORUS. Yandcrwart. Yanderwart. Take your battered men away, save ’em for a rainy day. Somerville, Somerville. There's no other like Our mother, Somerville. V. The Training School from Cambridge came, the last u|x n the list. 'The sight they made when all was o’er was too good to be missed; . A man who stood upon the street heard Manual Training say. Don't send the score to Cambridge till the cheers have died away.” CHORUS. Victory, victory. All together loudly sing, high and wide your ban- ners fling. Red and Blue, here's to you. All is over, we’re in clover. Somerville. GEORGE L. JANVRIN JEWELER 00 CROSS STRUCT SOMFP.VILLE, MASS.
