THE SOMERVILLE RADIATOR «7 ATHLETICS As a reward for his incessant efforts. Captain Munroc has at last been given permission to call out candidates for a hockey team by the Athletic Association. City Engineer Bailey is preparing a rink at Broadway field, which will give the Somer- ville people an opportunity to witness the game at home. Among the candidates arc found several hockey veterans .among whom arc found the fol- lowing: Merrill, Hoyt, and Garland. The new men who look promising are: Yacubian. Wiley, Little- field. Norris, and Nealy. McGann and Cuddy are coaching the team and great results are expected. At a recent meeting of the Athletic Association the following men were awarded “S’s”: Forg. Mer- rill, Hoyt, Gustin, Ireland. Fitzherbert, Garland. Mixer. Bowlhy, Donovan, Henderson. McNeill, and McLaughlin. Jarvis. Commins, and Sharry were not awarded, but were requested to appear at a later meeting and explain failures to appear at practice. Russell, Elliott, and Scriven were awarded a sweater without the “S.” At a later date Commins and Sharrv appeared before the executive committee and made satisfac- torv explanations for their absence from practice and were awarded their “S’s.” Jarvis tailed to ap- pear and was debarred from further indulgence in athletics.

When Mr. Bond came he could scarcely believe his eyes when he saw the weather-beaten face of the captain. “Why,” he said, “when did you get in ? I didn’t ■expect you back for four or five days.” “I got in this morning. When I got the tele- gram I did as well as I could.” “Curtis Pope’s lumber hasn’t arrived vet, has it?” “Oh. no!” said the captain, “we left them wav behind.” When Mr. Mead came he united with his part- ner in praising the captain. The latter, however, made a few gruff replies, and started to go, when Mr. Mead called him back. “We hear you arc to be married soon, Captain Rich.” said he with a smile. “Yes. I hope to be.” replied lie, reddening. “Mr. Bond and I wish to present you with a lit- tle token of our appreciation of all your faithful ser- vice. but especially of this last, and give our best wishes to the lady.” He handed the captain a little slip of paper. It was a check for one thousand dollars. Thenceforth no one had any grounds for com- plaint about the service at Jacksonville. Leangle did his best, but he was ruined financially for life.

He v ill soon be using the curling iron again. A happy and prosperous New Year to all. Hill An—rews says he doesn’t see how “Mozart in the lecture hall can sit so near D—o—s and not get into trouble. Have you heard Miss L—tch recite? If not. ac- cept the first opportunity. The editor herewith makes an urgent appeal for more notes from his classmates. Will some one please give J—n—s an alarm clock, and perhaps his tardy marks may improve. Miss II—r—n spent.a vacation in Providence recently: nothing serious, we hope. Ch—p—n is giving instructions in electricity in Room 18 every recess. Come early and avoid the rush. ’10 Andrew F. Handley, Class Editor. B—rl—w wishes to impress upon the minds of his classmates that he is now in business, and there- fore must not be disturbed. H—11 was seen riding on the rear end of a car talking to the motorman. Ho—d—n’s new word: “Attributing.” Sav—gc is spending most of his recess time scraping ink off the floor in 21 X. We hope there will be no occasion for any one else doing this laborious work. Miss Cr—sbv wants to know the name of the bust in the further end of the Annex corridor. She thinks it is Longfellow. Ambitions of some of our classmates:— Ho—scs. to learn German. Sa—ge, to be civilized. Munday. to be some other day. Sc—it, to be a sport. F—st—r, to be an eloquent speaker. Sk—11—ng, to be a giant. Cousins says he can play a piano with his feet. Believe it? Our president is getting very industrious. We hope others will do the same. The graduates of the Hodgkins School held a reunion on January 0 in the hall of that building. Ail enjoyed the evening. Xatin motes (Continued from page SI.) MO Arthur 11. Sanborn, Class Editor. The Freshman class is well represented at the Shakespeare plays. Soon they should be able to give one themselves. It has been found that Miss Mag-------n carries dangerous weapons with her. She has already tried them on M------by and M------ 1. St----le has been talking so much about the wild and woolly West that it would not be a sur- prise to have him appear at school some day with a cap-pistol and a jackknife. Gr----d’s mind has been severely taxed in his debate, but it does not look as though he would bo likely to collapse just yet. Miss Le----d went to New York lately to dis- play to her relatives her newly-learned Latin. K-----n and McK--------n are trying for the Globe’s school contest. Mr. Murray says to use headnotes instead of footnotes. R-----ss is putting into practice the new spelling reform. An example—Spata (Sparta). Miss P-----1 ought to buy a hammer and some nails and take a drive from Cambridge instead of walking. Gr----ns has become class pugilist. Have you noticed his eye? We are informed that although Miss 'I'-------lor keeps the stockyards, Sh-----p makes all the noise for the livestock; Some of the Freshmen seem to be practicing for the baseball team. X-----le recently declared that he was bashful. Appearances are very deceitful. Gr----d lias made a number of New Year’s reso- lutions, but we cannot see that he is keeping them. Miss T-----lot’s “gold pieces” arc not nearly so valuable as they may look. I)----son is in the same danger that Gr------n was in a short time ago. Wc extend our sympathy to Miss Adams, who left school on account of the sudden death of her father. Room 32 has a very clever electrician in Mc- K-----n. Wc understand that K------’s ear is made for a pencil rack. The little things are those that count in life (the Freshmen). Miss G-----n seems to like to attract attention in the algebra class. Question: And what is so rare as a dav in June?” Answer: “Class pins.”

This seemed to he the case, as she did not come to the surface. The young man, unmindful of his heavy shoes and summer suit, without a moment’s hesita- tion, dived down into the water. For a minute he was out of sight, a minute that was an eternity to the terrified two on shore. Then slowly Jim rose to the surface of the water and placed the unconscious girl in the boat. The waiting crowd on shore cheered, and several rowed out to help the half-drowned pair to the shore. They truly were a sorry sight, hut Dot soon be- came conscious and was in no way the worse for her adventure. Jim rather soiled his beautiful hands with the lake mud, but he also proved to many. Tom among the number, that they were far more useful than was suggested by appearance. --------------------------------------- 5. 0. ID. Club February 1-1 will witness the annual vaudeville show and dance of the S. O. M. Club at Odd Fel- lows Hall, corner of Broadway and Marshall street, Somerville. It will be another show of high standard so characteristic of the club, and extensive preparations arc undet way to make it eclipse all former efforts. The programme will include sketches of comedy, pathos, singing and dancing, and also several acts exhibiting peculiar feats of skill. After the vaude- ville. the audience will enjoy themselves for the balance of the evening by dancing in the capacious and handsome hall to the accompaniment of de- lightful music furnished by a complete orchestra. Tickets can be obtained from any of the mem- bers of the club iti the two schools, as well as from the alumni men. ♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦«♦♦♦ ♦ HARVEY E.
