12 SOM E K VILLE HIGH SC HOOL RADIATOR An assembly of the juniors and Sophomores was held preceding- the subscription campaign in behalf of the Radiator. As the assembly hall is not commodious enough this year to hold the entire student body at one time, it was thought advisable to call only the undergraduates to- gether. Mr. Avery opened the assembly with a few explanatory words, and. advising its support, turned the meeting over to the editor-in-chief, Wilbur Stanley, lie spoke, in a general way, of the needs of the paper and the necessity of having the cordial support of the school. Miss Merrill, faculty adviser of the Radiator, spoke on the sub- ject of supporting the paper, illustrating her point by an anecdote. Mr. Hosmer. faculty treasurer, and Homer Rowe, business manager, spoke concerning the financial situation of the Radiator and the need of subscriptions in the coming campaign. A football mass meeting was held in the Assembly Hall preceding the first league game. Cambridge Latin vs. Somerville High. Mr. Sears officiated, presenting the following- speakers: Mr. Aver. Mr. Pearson. Captain Kelli- her and Mr. Averv. Coach yer. the first speaker, told of the high spirit the team was showing on the gridiron. He stated that lie had four teams in operation, with everv player trying his best to “make” the first team. He also said that the team would fight hard to win. but if they lost, no excuses were wanted. Mr. Pearson, the financial secretary, explained the need of more subscriptions to the Athletic Association, lie explained that members of the Athletic Association are entitled to discount cards which enable the bearer to purchase athletic supplies at a discount. Captain Kelliber made a lengthy speech of about two lines, which was right to the point. He spoke for the team, saying that they would do their best on the gridiron, hut that they wanted support from the school in the shape of large and noisy cheering sections at all of the games. Mr. Avery closed the meeting, saying a few words ad' ising a hearty support of the team by the student body. The Somerville High School Orchestra has been reorganized this year. Lawrence Daggett has been appointed orchestra leader; Hilding Pearson, concert master, and Elizabeth Newton, secretary. The orchestra is already “in full swing” under the guidance of Mr. McVcy. assisted by Miss Hurd. There are over fifty members, which is the largest orchestra the school has ever had. A large assortment of instruments have been obtained, composed of the following: Violin, viola, violoncello, bass, flute, clarinet, oboe, saxo- phone. cornet, trumpet, melophonc. trombone, drum, tympani and piano. A brass quartet, composed of members of the orchestra, has been formed. They are: Cleon Hopkins, leader (cornet); Atherton Witham (cornet). Stanley Tribe «Trombone). Leslie Thompson (trombone). Without doubt, the orchestra has the material with which to make itself the best possible.

S., ’22 The Class of 1922 and indeed the entire student body, deeply feel their great loss in the untimely death of Paul J. Anderson, which occurred at Squam Lake. N. H.. August 18. from drowning. Mr. Anderson was widely known in the school, having been pianist for the Junior and Senior music; accompanist for the Orchestra, and pianist at the public events of the school. His refined courtesy, his efficient help- fulness, together with his wonderful musical talents, made him a valued worker in the activities of the school. A brilliant musical career, and a life that promised unusual usefulness in the world has been thus suddenly cut off in the death of Paul Anderson. Faculty and students unite to mourn his loss and cherish his memory.
