SENIOR CLASS HISTORY The Somerville High School opened its gates to the Class of 1937 on September 12, 1934. As “little” Sophomores we felt very much alone in our new home, but were made more comfortable when Mr. Sears warmly welcomed us in an assembly. In February, 1935, we chose an executive committee, composed of Edward Wilson, Barbara Christie, Fred Wright and Janice Kelley. By taking part in various school activities and by prompt payment of our class dues we showed a fine class spirit. We held our dance on May 24, and all who attended spent a pleasant afternoon. After a pleasant but hurried vacation we again resumed our studies, as the new Junior Class. On October 28, 1935, we chose our leaders, this time: Edward Wilson, president; Barbara Christie, vice-president; Anthony Rosselli, treasurer, and Janice Kelley, secretary. Many of our able students were successful in getting on the Maximum and Credit Lists, and being active in Athletics, Debating, the Orchestra, Band, and Glee Clubs. From our ranks twenty honorable students were selected for the National Honor Society. To top this illustrious year our Junior Night Committee, con- sisting of Alice Christie, Gosta Lindstrom, Barbara Wemyss, Daphne Wil- son, and Fred Wright gave us an enjoyable entertainment and dance on May 22, 1936. As dignified Seniors we returned to school in September. The same four elected in the Junior year were again elected to lead our class. On February 5 the Senior Play was presented, and to the cast and committee much praise should be given for such a splendid performance. An out- standing goal was reached by twenty members of our class when they were chosen for the National Honor Society. Now for the final activities—Class Day, Senior Night, and Graduation: How fast they come and go! Soon we shall take our first steps into the big world. The Senior Class thanks the teachers for their able guidance during the past three years and hopes to show greater appreciation by succeeding in future enterprises. Janice Kelley, Secretary.
