Hello, Everybody! Isn’t it great To get back To school Again ? Don’t Everybody Speak At once. Have a good time This summer? We notice that A large number Of Juniors Are looking Rather thin— Eat grape-nuts. Where Did you all Get that Sunburn ? We recommend Pear’s Soap. Some fellows Haven’t returned Yet. They are in The State Guard. We send praise To them. When they come back May the Faculty Take pity on them, Our returning Heroes. How do you Like it With No car tickets At school? We think this A poor scheme. , Inconvenient for us, Profitable for The Boston Elevated. As a closing Word We suggest that You refrain From talking In the corridors Between periods. I ncidentally, Don’t put Peanuts In the Ink wells. This Junior column Is open to Criticism, But wc. The editors. Found it A difficult job Without The aid Of The class. 1922 Walter N. Brcckenridge, Editor Those of the class pf 1922 who were in the High School last year welcome to their class the new members from the Junior High Schools. With the large class we have now we should be well represented in all school activities. We wonder whether:— R-g-rs still wears his bow necktie, H-rl-hy still has throat trouble. M-rm-nd still has his stock of excuses. St-ck-ole is as peaceful and silent as ever. T-ite is as studious as ever. Ca-r-er still gives interesting oral themes, Ak-r-y still arrives at 8.20. T-wle is aiming for all A’s again. Don’t forget the Athletic Association! Pay your quarter now, if you haven’t done so before; and not only join the Association but back up the team and go out to the games. Make the class of 1922 have the largest percentage of membership. We have some men of our class on the team. Go out and watch them.

16 SOMERVILLE HIGH SCHOOL RADIATOR Football shark—Steve Patten. French shark— Roland Barker. All-round shark—Jack Reardon. Astronomy shark—Frank Tansey. Already opinions are being expressed about some sort of a plan for our class to have a year-book, such as the class of 1917 had. We should bear this in mind during the course of the year. Who does Martin play with these days? He must be greatly in need of a playmate since there are no Freshmen this year. America’s coming foremost artist—Helen Steere. Why is it that on the night we plan to go to a dance we have much more home work than usual? The two girls chosen for physical train- ing leaders of Room no are Dorothea Crowne and Theresa Begley. Both Miss Crowne and Miss Begley are deservedly popular and the room is to be congratu- lated on its selection. Teacher—“Please be careful about com- municating.” Pupil (angrily)—“I always communicate as careful as I can.” The term “fresh” as applied to. Freshmen has become obsolete, but it more than fits some of these new First-years. Mitchel is exceedingly worried because he was told that he was only in the twelfth grade of school. Tochterman says. “Live and Learn” is his motto. It’s a little doubtful when it comes to learning. Wouldn’t it be funny if— McNamara were two feet smaller And Miss Blood were two feet taller? Tosi studied hard and Got all A’s on his card? Tom Kelley were really neat And Joe Saunders very sweet? Miss Still were still? Martin was on time at recess? We had more class notes than we could handle? Congratulations to the incoming officers! We hope they may serve our class well and be well supported. 1921 NOTES J. C. Dunbar, Editor D. H. Miller, Asst. Editor The Juniors wish the football team and Mr. McLaughlin the best of success for this season. Every Junior is down on the slate for every game. Are you doing your part? Let’s not have a slacker in the class. We are wondering what the coming class editors will do for jokes, since there are no Freshmen to use as victims. A little bird whispered in a Junior’s ear, “Save your pennies. There are a lot of ‘frat.’ dances coming this winter.” Don’t make a mistake and come in the side door. You would be taken for a Soph- omore. Think of it! We are glad to see the Girls’ Debating Society starting business so soon. Once again the girls are ahead. Come on, fel- lows! Signs of life! Some class to our rich friends who come dashing up to school in Fords and things! Some fellows get their ice cream cones in the girls’ line. Their excuse is that they get larger cones. Can you think of any other? Little grains of water, Little drops of sand, About a score of stalwart youths Compose the High School Band. There once was a Junior, His name was Lynch, Who, on the gridiron, Came through in the pinch. Have you read the latest fiction? Corliss—“The Phantom of the Opera.” K. Buck—“Peg 0’ My Heart.” Maxwell—“Coporal Cameron.”
