We met the “Big Traffic Mans” for the first time and endeared ourselves to the entire Traffic Squad. We are terrified by Mr. Pearson’s voice. Radiator out. What a high class and awe inspiring magazine! If they would only leave out all jokes pertaining to Sophomores! We become acquainted with the Webster Debating Society. Reconciled at last to the high class service in the school lunch room. Spaghetti again! Our first “Big” football game. Somerville 26, Rindge 13. You bet it’s Thanksgiving! Juniors and Seniors are beginning to forget that Sophomores are little more than scum. All excited about hanging up our stockings and the beginning of the vacation. (We’re just fooling. We knew all the time there wasn’t any Santa Claus.) Back to school after the vacation in which we played with our new toys. Bursting with our New Year's Resolutions! The New Year’s Resolution broken for the first time. Oh well! There’s another year coming. Witnessed our first Senior Play, “A Full House.” Aren’t those Seniors wonderful! John I laves and Co. elected as class officers. Excitement intense. First class meeting. From now on we’re going to “show” the rest of the school. Sophomore Dance. What if it was in the afternoon. Juniors and Seniors didn't have to come. Our first Class Day. The Sophomore battalion made an impressive sight. Last but not least, by any means. Summer vacation begins. JUNIOR YEAR— 1927-1928 We enter school as dignified Juniors, having acquired just the necessary touch of sophistication during the summer. Isn’t it funny, but we feet superior to those little Sophs too! Three flights of stairs aren’t so good! Let’s give the Sophs the third floor. We’ve got some football team, composed mostly of Juniors, too. We knew that the Juniors were the right sort! Work on the new school has begun at last! We elected John Rondina and Co. Somerville continues its victories and defeats Rindge. You bet we were thank- ful! Report cards. Beastly annoyance! The Players’ Club and Glee Club presented a very worthy Christmas Cantata, in which the Juniore were well represented. Christmas vacation, yes; but rest? No. Donald Cochran awarded cup by Mr. Yiano for being the most valuable football player on Somerville team. Saw our first National Honor Society Inauguration. Something for us to work for. Sophomore Dance. The Senior Play, The New Poor,” was largely attended. A Junior boy. John Hayes, took second place at the State Indoor Track Meet, Somerville took second place. A good time was had by ail at the Orchestra Concert Junior Night at last! And what a time! Decorations, entertainment, and. everything was great. 17
