Ankzr 1923 - 1928 V Un March 31, 1928, Marion W. Anker was mercifully released from untold suffering, which had been heroical- ly endured. Miss Anker was an unusually capable and versatile young lady who had a host of friends, both among the members of our school and the people of our community. She was faithful and devoted to her school duties and tasks and Was always ready and Willing to give unstintingly of her talent and service in response to the many varied calls of school and its manifold ac-. tivities. Pleasant memories of her association with us will always linger about our Spaulding halls. 1 iy.i.,i,i,.,y,.i. , Page Seventeen REVIEW OF THE PAST YEAR BE EE Our school registration last September was 705, of whom 26 were post graduates, including 23 members of the teacher training class. The rest were classified as follows:-Seniors 121, Juniors 151: Sophomores 1725 Freshmen 235. The variation in the number of seniors who started the work of the year and the number who are to graduate is noticeable and is governed by the results of effort as typified by the survival of the fittest. This year the same courses of study have been offered as last year. Progress is our watchword and it is our constant endeavor that our school advance in efficiency and achievement. We be- lieve that concentrating and focalizing our eHorts on the courses heretofore offered prove more effective than scattering our ener- gies over a wider range of subjects. At the close of last year eight members of our teaching force resigned, most of whom are continuing as teachers in larger and more remunerative positions than we could offer them. Of these eight the two who had been with us the longest were Mr. Henshaw and Miss Willey, six and five years, respectively. The others were Misses Knight, Aldrich, Gutterson, Sanford, and Messrs. Muir and Abbott. Early last November Miss Anker who had just entered on her fifth year of service resigned her position because of ill health. Miss Kambour was secured to take her place on our teaching staff. Soon after relinquishing her position Miss Anker grew decidedly worse, and she lingered on until March when she passed away. In her death our school sustained a great loss. We have been fortunate in our selection of new teachers this year. The success and recognition of excellence which Spaulding High School is steadfastly attaining is due to the harmonious efforts of all its teachers and the responsiveness of its pupils, but it is due in no small degree to the splendid and efficient service, ren7 dered by the longstanding members of our teaching force who for ten, fifteen, and even twenty years have loyally labored in ful- filling the message which Our Echo reverberates year after year.

Lolly, as her more intimate friends call her, went to Waterbury through her sophomore year, and then she came to Spaulding to further her education. She says she is fond of all sorts of animals, and in the future we expect her to be caring for a menagerie. She is always ready to go skiing, hiking, or skating since outdoor sports are among her chief enjoy- ments. She detests angle-worms and dish washing. But what girl doesn't ? She is a student of no mean ability, we'll say. She surely can talk the French language as though she were a born na- tive. It is no wonder that she hopes to become a French teacher. .-i'14u'wJ K k - -. V I Page Twenty-Iwo ' M l , lx Ajw VICTOR H.

Hardwick lost not only a good basketball player, but also a jolly girl, ready either for work or for a good time. She was class secretary and on the Outing Club Council before she came to Barre, and we have found her to be a good sport, who enjoys tennis, skating, and danc- ing. Nellie is the Spanish shark. This she wants to teach when she is not coaching a champion basketball team. r Page Thirty-nine Y W AILEEN EMILY GOOD Commercial Course 821 N.

This incident is but one of the many in his life, illustrating his love for action. Simon has ap- plied himself industriously to his school work. Who has ever seen him wasting time during a study period? He says himself that he had rather work than play or loaf. Simon has been a very ac- tive and popular member of his class, interested in athletic activi- ties: and as a student, especially attracted to the study of modern languages.

Martha's the life of the party, especially on sleighrides and strawrides, when she sends everyone into paroxysms of laughter. But she can be serious when she wants to, and that isn't too seldom. Anyway, everyone agrees that she's a good sport, and parties wouldn't be parties without her happy spirit to keep the ball rolling. We can but hope that when she fulfills her ambition to become a teacher, sh.e'll be as much in favor with the students as she is with her classmates.

If you like to hear him argue, just start him on the subject of gameg but he will easy get the best of you there. Like most boys, his dislike seems to be school. His ambition is to be a draftsm-an in some stoneshed office. He has attended evening drawing school for four terms and has worked in a stoneshed, boxing stones every summer vacation.

We can't help wondering why she knew her lessons so well when she, herself, said that she hated books and studying. Somebody whispered that Helen didn't .dare brave the dangers of crabby teachers with unprepared lessons. We wonder what kind of a feeling that is-certainly not the prevail- ing distemper.

'She boasts enthusiastically about her little green fresh- man bow. Can you imagine Lizzie an old maid or a school marm? The reports of a court room might be exciting enough for her, but we picture her traveling, but never getting up for an early train or bus. No never! after all those cold and varied experiences on the East Barre vehicles.

Canada for me! says Alma, and one can't blame her since there she has spent the happiest vacations of her life, enjoying to the ut nost a large farm. Alma has never ceased to regret that she cried the whole of her first day in school and was sent home and thereby lost a whole year of progress. Her greatest pal is a musi- cal instrument. She plays the piano and has tried her skill on the guitar. Her dislikes are onions, police dogs, spiders, and lightning. The most memorable event in her life was shaking hands with Helen Keller, whose talk had made a wonderful impression on her. If her own plans mature, next fall will see her entering a business college-but she has considered being a pharmacist or a dietitian. WILLIAM HENRY PRESCOTT I General Course Plainfield, Vermont U Athletic Association Q3-41 ,- Vjlfu Echo MJ f 'I Q5 UU You're too modest. i l After two very active years at Plainfield Junior High, Bill, with a lot of ambition, came to Spaulding to finish his course. Bill goes to school to get the most there is in it and not to have a place to loaf a few years. There is no question about it when one real- izes that he walks from Barre to Plainfield every Friday and back on Sunday. It is rumored he got nearly ba-ck to Barre after the fiood, before he learned there was no school. His favorite studies are the sciences, but he doesn't like the languages. Bill is as fond of the movies as any fellow, particularly the comedies, and very frequently he attends. He is much interested in 4-H work. At present Bill's ambition is to go to college. ll Page Fdiy-eight SALVINO Pucci General Course 26 Long Street Class Ring Committee 121 Class Basketball Q1-3-49 Class Baseball QD Basketball Q21 Baseball Q2-3-41 Football 12-3-41 I like him for being quiet and discreet. In the graduation of Salvino, Spaulding will lose another of its willing, energetic boys. Sal certainly knows his stuff when it comes to keeping busy, though the difficulty of rising from slum- ber is great. Sal's afternoons are always occupied with athletics. His nights are given to ushering in a downtown theatre. By this means he manages to save money for college. Sal has been kept busy enough so that he has not become injured lately. When he was younger, he barely escaped with his life several times, con- sequently Sal got many bruises and cuts before his father moved to the edge of the city where Sal could have the open spaces. Pucci possesses the merits of a business man. EDWARD A.

Hence, Bill has always shone in his studies and we knew he would be honored with a Pro Merito pin. We can realize Why he is such a favorite with his teachers.

How many times have we listened to him from the stage in debates, recitations, or plays! Once he de- claimed, I like anything but an onion. His talents are as nu- merous as his likes. Any sort of outdoor activity or anything of a mechanical nature has always interested him.

But he flashes after the puck and pitches many a startling curve. Room E and bum cards are among Ryan's dislikes, and shall we sayggirls?

She plans to be a teacher and says she likes little children. With her pleasant smile and pleasing manner, coupled with am- bition and sincerity, we feel she will attain her goal.

Howard is a hard working fellow. He has had a paper route since he was knee high to a grasshopper and for several years he has worked in the Times office afternoons. Besides he has taken care of a large garden for the last three years. But he always will find time to go to the movies and he loves to read. He likes to hike, also. Once he thought he achieved a great thing when he walked to Williamstown. Later he hiked to Cur- tis and Joe's Ponds. More recently he covered three hundred seventy-five miles in three and one-half days by the more popular method of seeking rides. How plans to put himself through a technical institute in Boston where he will study chemical or industrial engineering.

Social events were taken for granted. No team has been on the field or floor without someone from '29 being there. At the close of the football sea- son the letter-men convened and unanimously elected Thomas Mc- Goff, captain for next year. Tom is a valuable addition to the class of '29. Likewise, at the close of the basketball season, who was better fitted to captain the team than Tom ? But good as he is, Tom isn't our only athlete. Johnnie Walker scored the winning touchdown in the St. Johnsbury game last fall and Jurras has dropped in many a basket at the right moment, then too, Nancy Kelty has been hooking the ball across the plate since his fresh- man year and will do so for another year yet. All our athletes are not confined to the boys though, the girls are right there, too. Lillian Tassie, Eleanor Scott, and Elva Mochetti made letters, on the girls' basket ball team. There are other just as important groups as teams in which '29 is well represented, such as the orchestra, the glee club, and prize speaking, so that with her writers, artists, musicians, speak- ers, athletes, and last but not least in importance and numbers, honor roll students, '29 presents a well rounded appearance, such as any class might well be proud of. In fact, there is no school activity, in which she is not represented. R. E. Grant, '29.

J , SOPHOMAORE HISTORY 1927-1928 EE EE This year, which as you know is Leap Year, we took off with Betty Lane as pilot. The other members of the crew were John Dunleavy, Bernard Mulcahy, and Frances Sargent, who filled the much prized offices of vice-president, secretary, and treasurer, res- pectively. Although we were carrying quite a load flast year's debtsj our first take off was successful. In fact, we didn't even use the whole length of the runway. The iirst calendar event of this year's program was-of course, we attended the freshman reception, outside to be sure, but this wasn't on the calendar-The Hallowe'en Masquerade. It certain- ly lived up to our predictions of the previous year. It was a great success financially and scholastically. The school, after reading some of our red hot ads, turned out en masse.. There was a play on the program which was well liked. Much credit for which must go to N. Dean Rowe, who certainly was a good coach. The Syncopating Serenadersv furnished music for the occasion. And Page Eighty-nine it must be said that after a few starts they certainly did synco- pate to say nothing of the Serenade. Some idea of the suiccess of this aHair may be had when we tell you that out of the proceeds we paid the orchestra, last year's debts, and still had a goodly sum left. And last, but not least, we will tell you that it was the big- gest masquerade ever staged by Spaulding High School. You have probably guessed this already since you knew the class of 1930 put it on. Yes, it is true, we were class basketball champions again. That's about all there is to it, the others weren't in our class that's all. They may be some day by perseverance, but we doubt it. You've probably heard of the sleighride. We came out of it all right financially. Did you hear about the big fur coat robbery? Well, there was one. Ask Miss Lucchina about it. She'll tell you. We all had a good time as usual and are now waiting for the straw- ride. Oh, by the way, did you know we had a class party this year? Well, we did. Our music was furnished by the Independent One fRuth Flintj and she certainly could tickle those ivories. We enjoyed games, dancing, and Eskimo pies--there is still a little un- certainty where all the pies went-till it was bedtime by the S. H. S. clock which strikes at 10:30 without fail. Off to bed child- ren! And now just as this valuable manuscript is being finished, what do we do but win the class track championship. Of course, we expected to win it but we weren't going to put it in because we didn't want you to think that we were boasting. The Class of '30's point getters on the cinder track are: Johnny and Jimmy Woodruff, Bernie Mulcahy, Cliff Birnie, Bill Pierce, Dante Mori, Les McDonald, and Jock Littel. As far as running, jumping, and throwing are concerned they are there with the goods. They trimmed the noble seniors by one point, 52-51, which was just enough to win. As usual, they came through, if by the skin of their teeth. You can bank on Spaulding being well represented as long as the Class of '30 is chasing around its stately corridors. And How ! B. J.

From beginning to end, it was a success, and much appreciation goes to the sopho- mores, who made it so. The evening opened with a play, When Grandma Pulls the Strings. The sophomores knew their stuff in that. Mr. Rowe and Miss Britell deserve a great deal of credit, too. William fGeorge McKinnonJ had a hard time trying to propose to Julia fFrances Sargentj, since he was interrupted so many times by a ball of yarn. Was Granny truly deaf and was she really knitting? We think by her actions, she was just pretend- ing. Anyway, she and Hildegarde, the little girl, fEdith Cham- berlinj finally managed the proposal and the play came to a happy end with Granny giving its motto. Anything that is worth doing at all, is worth doing well. After the play, the Hoor was cleared for dancing. Abair's Syncopating Serenaders played, and they surely did their best to add to the zest and spirit of the party. The costumed figures, gliding over the floor in bright and gala attire, added much to the significance of the affair.Finally, a grand march was held to choose the best costumes, and aroused much merriment. The hall was attractively decorated in orange and black. Fences, pumpkins, and witches realistically adorned the window shades. Streamer, novelty, and confetti dances were enjoyed by a large number of the student body, alumni, and friends. Betty Lane, Frances Sargent, Edith Chamberlin, Irene Mc- Leod, Bernard Mulcahy, Arthur Bilodeau, and Dante Mori were in charge of the affair. Through their efforts, the evening was pro- claimed a success by everyone.

Ninety-four THE FRESHMAN DIARY 1927-1928 555555 September 6, 1927 At last our great day has arrived! Two hundred or more green, little freshmen trot into school. Those superior upper- classmen persist in directing us to opposite parts of the building looking for those elusive classrooms. September 7 Where are those classrooms 'Z They must be hiding. September 12 We display our school spirit by joining the athletic associa- tion. September 19 Our first assembly! When entering, '31 is greeted with a great storm of applause. Or is it music they are applauding 'Z September 22 A president must be elected to carry on our business affairs. Hooray! Bill won it. September 30 The seniors are actually giving us a reception! We certainly appreciate the honor. But no one must ever know that we thought refreshments were to be served when they announced Hot CoHee, and found it to be only an interesting game. October 2 Some talented U1 freshies appear at the Glee Club try out. October 24 Mr. Hosmer reads a list of the honor students for the first six weeks in assembly. '31 is represented. u ' -M Pan Ninelyaive October 28 The sophomores give a Hallowe'en party. Some of the bravest of us attempt to dance. We enjoy ourselves immensely. November 3 First Sentinel number issued. We feel rather honored to think they issue a freshman Sentinel number. December 23 We are dismissed from school and go home to await the com- ing of Santa. Jnnuury 3, 1928 Back to school and news of approaching mid-years. January 17 Mid-years! Not many survive. January 21 The freshman sleighride! The rain, which persisted in pour- ing down, dampened us, but not our spirits. Fun-and how! February 6 One of the many queer answers found on our test paperse Booker T. Washington was a negro who soon turned white. March 2 Basketball game between Burlington and Spaulding on a neu- tral Hoor. We flock down to Montpelier determined to make a day of it. In a hard-fought game, Burlington wins. April 12 and 13 The senior play. Those seniors certainly can act! April 28 The Lady of the Lake seems to be working a queer spell over some of us. One teacher asked, What is the meaning of 'stag'-the word used so much in the chase ? A freshie replied, A stag is a fellow who goes to a dance alone. Madeline Suitor, '31 Page Ninety-six THE FRESHMAN RECEPTION September 30, 1927 5515555 One Friday night this fall, about three weeks after school be- gan, we the seniors, gave the freshmen their usual reception. For the first time in our lives, we, as a class, could be looked up tog and, although it does not seem more than two weeks ago since we as freshies were making some other seniors feel big, neverthe- less, I think we made the most of our opportunities. On coming in, the freshmen were made beautiful in green hats by Ruth Flint and Ethel Sowden, in Room D, who seemed to take a great deal of delight in their official position. This was not at all the Worst part of it, however, for some of the boys persisted in making the freshman boys and girls sit together-much to their dismay. That is, they acted dismayed. After they had received their green hats, there was a grand rush to Assembly Hall where no freshman was admitted without his hat. Then came the agony of agonies for the freshmen-the receiving line. The seniors were peppered with questions like, What shall I do ? and What shall I say ? about which everyone tried to act very wise, but I doubt if we were. To revive the fainting spirits of the freshmen there was a. short program in which Marian, as the baby, amused everyone a lot. Then Philip told them a bed time story, after which the wonder- ing freshmen returned to the back of the hall, where the seniors were forced to go and drag out partners for the games and marches, which followed. During these, the freshmen seemed to grow a little more at home and were soon playing Leap Frog or some such thing in the middle of the floor. This exciting game was broken up soon by the playing of the school songs and cheers, after which Ruth played Home Sweet Home and everyone headed that way, the freshmen, I suppose, being glad that the big ordeal was over. Helen Phelps, '28 , U V V: 1 1, Page N inefy-seven mm' SHOW NOTES 55525 Everybody was outeincluding the sophs and the juniors- but they were outside. Harry Broggi and Philip Clark thought the program was not long enough, so they made a freshman sing Barney Google. Barbara Smith makes a good gypsy. We think Mr. Hosmer applauded her Gum ditty. Vollin Wells lost his putty nose and added to the amusement. Priscilla Cole in The Doo-Funny Family The faculty in their green or white caps looked even funnier than the freshmen-if we dare say so. Spaulding's track team will have many new recruits-if the freshmen will demonstrate their speedy get-a-way to a coach. The Doo-Funny Family was in more than one predicament. Vanishing cream vanished all right and the putty noses refused to come off. Some of the cast were scarred for several days.

We entered Spaulding, each freshman afraid of his own foot- steps. The upper classmen seemed so big and intelligent to us, especially the seniors. When they spoke to any of us, we seemed to shake, yet thought it was great to be noticed by them. September 12. The Greenies were ignorant when it came to paying class dues, desk dues, getting the Sentinel and joining the Athletic Associa- tion, but we soon had the school spirit and practised it to the best of our ability. September 13. Those puzzling schedules 'got our goats because some have been changed and we Freshies still Walk into the wrong rooms. fPerhaps, Senior Class Roomslj September 17. Victoria Martin was sent back to Room E by Denny and to everyone's surprise she cried so hard, that she gave the rest of the Freshies a scare! The thought of Room E seemed to frighten us after that! September 22. At our first assembly we certainly received a Warm welcome by hand clapping from the upper classmen, much to our amaze- ment and awe.

Tuesday came and almost all the freshmen marched into As- sembly once more. We seemed to be the only ones in there. I'll bet the others weren't glad-not much! This meant an extra study-period for them, but the poor freshies didn't know. September 26. Friday, and our first mass meeting! We did not cheer, for in trying to do so we became frightened and lost our sweet voices. September 26. The Freshman Reception. We went to the Assembly Hall with fear that had been instilled in us days before this. We won- dered what the future held in store for us and soon we were adorned with green tags to single us out from the Seniors. We were lead through the receiving line. Then we were entertained by a short program. About ten-thirty we were sent home, feel- ing relieved that it was over. September 29. The Freshies were still talking and mentioning their recep- tion. One said that the teacher announced Hot Coffee, but that he never received any, much to his dismayg but he did re- ceive something else, yesterday-a Hunk notice, which made him shake with fear. Pan One Hundred Twelve Marion E. Willey, Algebra, English Cora G. Sanford, Biology, History October 1. Many freshmen attended the first football game. Oh! What fun we had yelling and cheering ! We later formed a snake dance to amuse ourselves. Pro Merito members were introduced by Mr. Hosmer, but we freshmen are innocent and didn't even know what he praised these students for. October 5. There was a rumor which spread quickly through the halls, that a little freshman saw Coach Rogers with his girl. We cer- tainly were a curious lot. October ,l5. A few brave '28'ers went out for prize-speaking. Mr. Hen- shaw was surprised at their great ability and talent. October 17 Football badges for sale! Almost every freshman bought one or more, just to show that he or she belongged to S. H. S. October 20. The freshies asked many questions about the answers in their first exams! October 29. The Hallowe'en Party was given by the Sophs. Of course the prize was awarded to Freshman Robert Chaples. The funniest costume was worn by Roland Rousse tex-memberj and the second Pav One Hundred Thirteen Mary L. Carroll, History, English Madelyn W. Aldrich, Music prize was carried off by him. The judges were Miss Willey, Coach- es Rogers and Densmore. Octobor 31. Many of our boys went out for football. Fudgie Abbiati made himself known. November 10. The honor students' names were read for the first time in As- sembly Hall. We, freshies, didn't expect to have our names pub- lished in the paper or read by the tall, dignified man, known as our principal, Mr. Hosmer. November 3. Great Caesar! Miss Knight's English class gave a play. November 12. Merchant of Venice I The teacher is discussing the type of meter used by Shakespeare. She asked Vanetti, What kind of feet does this line contain ? Vanetti gazed around hopelessly, as if to find the answer suspended in mid-air. Finally, he answered, Bare Feet. The freshies got a thrill and a laugh. November 15. Velda Bardelli was set to work picking up scraps of paper from two aisles in Room D. December 19. The freshman surely deserved a little vacation. We rested by playing and sliding. How glad we were! Thanks to Santa! -- January 5, 1925. Back to school once more! Mid-years, oh how we Scrubs dreaded 'em. It was bad enough to have exams every six weeks, but these! Our knees knocked each other with every thought of them. January 14. Football letters were awarded. Fudgie Abbiati was the only freshie who won a letter. What an embarrassing moment for him! The rest of the students were sore because Tomasi was not given a letter. We freshies didn't know what it was all about, but we certainly felt proud of Fudgie. January 28. A fashion parade was held by the Greenies of Room 5, staged by Miss Knight. Some of the gowns were a bit old-fashioned, but quite in keeping with Rowena's time. The boys made castles to represent a scene in Lady of the Lake. February 7. Many freshmen attended the senior play called, Stop Thief . February 13. Jingle bells, jingle bells, and off we go for East Montpelier. This sleighride was a novelty for most of us. We weren't afraid of any bugaboos about Friday, the thirteenth, for about ninety at- tended with bells on. After supper, dancing and games were enjoyed by all. Hark ! The Principal stepped upon the stage. He delivered a humorous selection about Socrates and his wife. Judg- ing from the applause, this was much appreciated by the Scrubs. Bernice Cutting recited a poem and Marie Pirie danced. We start- ed for home after an enjoyable evening. ROOM D Page One Hundred Fmeeu February 22. George never told a lieg but how about us freshmen ? February 28. .The freshies have been trying out for class basketball. The seniors were defeated by us freshies. Aren't We the berries ! March 3. Ha! Ha! It was a freshman wearing long trousers! This certainly amused the upper-classmen. March 10. Pop! Out flew the cork from Madeline Hogg's red ink bottle and nearly hit the study room teacher. You ought to have seen her face-red as her ink. March 17. St. Patrick's Birthday. We scrubs wore green bows, stock- ings, and dresses which the upper-classmen took as an enormous joke. March 21. Some of the freshies showed the students how they could sing when Bulbul went off as a success. March 31. Mary Coletti and Helen Barclay had reserved seats in Room E, given to them as a gift by Denny. April 3. Bang! Down on the floor sat Eda Cecchini. What happened? Iole Carusi had drawn Eda's chair away while she was reciting. This amused the Greenies. April 5 Boo Hoo! Jildo Cappio Cex-memberj was crying because two naughty little freshmen pulled his shirt Hap out in class and everyone laughed. April 7. Miss Dix and two of her sewing pupils were locked in sew- ing. They had all the freshmen in Room D laughing. Page One Hundred Sixteen April 15 D Miss Brooks forgot to assign a lesson and we freshies were tickled to pieces but when we entered study room there it was on the board in black and white. May 2. Boys' Day and-the Float. Our hopes were low when we saw the beautiful and artistic floats of the upper classmen. May 23. It was raining! Just our luck! Well, it didn't keep the fresh- ies from getting ready for the strawride, for we soon filled two trucks or covered wagons. We reached Camp Comfort full of pep and everything went off with a bang up to our departure. Many enjoyed boatrides. Miss Carroll presented us with a big box of chocolates. After this a roar of the cannon had nothing on the fury of the pillow fight which occurred upstairs. June 6. We practised for class day with Philip Clark as Marshal. We made a few mistakes. The Sentinel staff was announced. June ll. Our first class-day! Everyone turned his eyes on the decked freshies. We marched into the Opera House, holding our breath for we feared we might get out of step. June 12. We were sophs. How big we felt for it was our turn to call the coming class green horns.

We sophs were reading the notice, which was enclosed in a supposed-to-be circle with a large 'Reserve' nearby. A general murmur of What for? , When is it? , and Are you going? was heard here and there. At the end of the sixth period President Alma Bianchi was saying, Will the freshman please get out ? and Nominations are now in order for a committee for the Hallowe'en Masquerade. The ones chosen were:-Ema Savoia, Marian Keast, Philip Clark, and Harry Broggi. Meetings were held for two weeks before Friday, Oct. 23, 1924, the night of the big affair. Behind the scenes, Miss Heath coached the Southern Girls, Peter Pan, and School Days, the musical numbers. How we enjoyed those rehearsals! Such a time the Southern Girls had learning the steps and remember- ing when to kick. Philip and Harry thought they were watching the Ziegfield Follies. Then, the day before the event, the hall was decorated with a sky of balloons and crepe paper, while cats, witches, and pump- kins all had a place in the fixings. The balloons were the cause of much dismay. All sophs, who had any excess energy, came back to blow up balloons that Friday. Philip had to resort to tying them, because the exertion of blowing them was wearing him to a state of invisibility and he thought he was small enough al- ready. After the balloons were all tied and strung across the hall, we gave a silent prayer that the air in them might not es- cape.

We were decorating the booths and Philip had just come, back from the ofhce with a big dish of paste. He set it on a chair nearby and began helping. At last the booth was fixed and we sat down to admire it. We all wondered at the -queer look on Philip's face. He got up and his trousers were all white with sticky paste. How we laughed. Marian laughed so hard she fell off her chairg and after she got up, what should she do but sit right into the chair Philip had vacated. However, late in the afternoon everything was ready for the evening. The hall looked spiffy. The program began on time? ? Aileen Good was the Witchg Priscilla Cole, Orphan Annie. Next came the Southern Girls led by Mary Coletti and Ethel Sowden. Beatrix Park, Helen Bar- clay, and Ruth Flint gave a musical number. Marian Keast and Alma Bianchi gave 'School Days in costume and it brought down the house. Nony McAllister with a chorus of girls interpreted Peter Pan to a T, As a Grand Finale we rendered Too Tired to do More Dancing. ln spite of which, the Green Mountain Mel- ody Boys tuned up and the audience did the rest. When Waldron Biggs pulled down some of our carefully strung balloons, the fun began.

Then there was the grand march, from which prize costumes were chosen. ,Member how stingy Miss Chaples was with that box of chocolates? The party broke up at 10.30 and it had been most successful. We made a net profit of forty dollars and some cents! Misses Heath, Anker, Willey, and Lucchina were our aide-de-camps and to them go our most devout thanks. The Sophomore Slcighride Chinny Dessureau and Boob Lane must certainly have enjoyed their ride on the sophomore sleighride. Chinny, as usual, found it very difficult to remain quiet a moment, so, he decided to stand up and view the surrounding landscape. Ah l he said to Boob, this is fun. Come up here with me. Honest it's great. Boob, thus tempted, decided to test the air in that altitude. He took one of the fur robes, wrapped himself up in it Clndian fashionl and stood up in his seat. Just then, the sleigh gave a jerk and Chinny and Boob disappeared. Hey, stop the horses l someone yelled. The sleigh stopped and behold. Chinny and Boob were to be distinguished, half buried in a snow bank. That happened on our way to East Montpelier on Feb. 6, 1926. Our sleighride was a great success that year except for the hot- dogs that weren't hot, and for the rolls that were soaked. Mr. Henshaw took all the blame on his shoulders, but his wife made up for it by serving us with delicious hot cocoa. And Denny, who helped you eat that chocolate cake? We suspect Miss Tomasi. ROOM E. QEMPTY lj 51 'gfiiiig SEE2E2EEE:!E5:5:E .:Ei?5fE2E55:. 3- - After the eats, we went upstairs and danced and played games. Mio Storti with his Dutchman's shoes almost went flying through the window that night. We were playing a running game. When Mio's turn came he started with such speed that it was impossible for him to stop at the right place on such a slip- pery floor. Crash! right through the window he went and had it not been for a ready hand, this incident would probably not have been a joke. Then Eddie Ramon with strength equal to Hercules went through two chairs while playing Going to Jerusalem . Don't get the wrong impression. Eddie wasn't getting religious. Besides, two milk pails disappeared. The committee still wonders what became of them. They have a faint suspicion that Willie Bossi knows. Do you wonder we didn't make any money on the ride with all these casualties? It was at the sleighride that Ema, Marian, Lena, and Alma found out they were born pool sharks. They went to a store for life-saversg but were lured by the pool tables. They acted like veterans, though they had never played before. Lena chalked the wrong end of the cue and Marian made a touchdown. I think it was Ema who shot a foul and Alma made a home run. At any rate, they accomplished wonders although knowing nothing about the game. Everyone had a good time and all regretted when it was over. We pulled into Barre at midnight, sleepy but happy. The Committee-Robina MacDonald, Velma Suitor, Alma Bi- anchi, Simon Gould, and Happy Dunleavy. SOPHOMORE CLASS PARTY APRIL 23, 1926 Oh, what a good time we had that week before the party- Good time l-Maybe !--We Worked like Trojans. There were six on the committee, Alma Bianchi, Ema Savoia, Ethel Sowden, Mary Sirnonelli, Philip Clark, and Harold Dunleavy. Misses Heath and Willey furnished the ideas. e Every night for two weeks the committee got together to work. One night at Ethel's, we collected things for the fish pond. We had all sizes and shapes of packages, representing every kind Page One Hundred Twenty-one of fish. That is the night we found out that Philip Clark is aspir- ing to the fame of Paderewski, and that Harry Broggi will be our future Caruso. We were honored with an exhibition of their respective talents. Philip gave a selection on the piano that was a masterpiece. He called it Romeo and Juliet. Harry sang to the accompaniment in his clear and vibrant voice. As all great artists, Philip has a peculiarity. He says he is unable to produce sweet melodies unless his hair shades his eyes. However, the applause they received shook the house. Another night we met at Mary's house to make paper hats. It seemed as though we used hundreds of yards of paper, and mil- lions of yards of thread. How funny Philip did look trying to thread a needle! And Happy, why, he ruined every other hat he cut out! The poor boys were ready to challenge anyone to a box- ing match who dared to mention that sewing was an insignificant art. At least Philip put his learning into practical use by darn- ing all the family stockings. The afternoon of the party, Mary Simonelli and Francis Sul- livan, with Ema Savoia coaching, practised the various steps of the Charleston. Beads of perspiration were streaming down their cheeks, their parched lips were parted and their tongues protruded with the exertion of keeping time to Ema's 1-2-3- kick. Jack, the janitor, put an end to this torture with the words, Do you know that platform isn't safe? Come down the stairs if you want to see me, not through the floors! At 7.30, sharp, April 23, 1926, the sophomore stampede be- gan. Our official ticket sellers, Boob Lane and Barton Sargent, were acquiring wealth for the class, while upstairs, Elma and Phil- ip distributed old rose and gray hats. Then a short program was in order. First, Winthrop Ballard read the class will. Next came the Charleston performance. Sad to say, the strenuous practice of the afternoon proved of no avail. Mary and Francis could not keep time together. fEma forgot to count.J To rem- edy their first performance, each gave a separate exhibition that called for an encore. Then came elections for the Hall of Fame. Bunny Robertson, Aldo Vanetti, and Winthrop Ballard, were elected Class Clowns, Class Beauties, Marion Barclay, Marian Keast, and Ethel Sowdeng Class Flirts: Ema Savoia, Marian Keast. Most popular boys : Dunleavy and Clark. Class Shiek: Harry Brog- gi. Most bashful boys: Mitchell and Abiatti. Most studious girls: Gladys Olliver, Bertha Olson. Famous for chewing gum: Chinney Dessureau. Famous for Room E: Bill Ryan. The main feature of the night was the presentation of a new Ford Touring Car for the lucky number. Priscilla Cole was the lucky girl. Later, dancing and games were in order and-Oh, yes --the fish pond was a great hit. The party came to a close at 10:30 as usual. This was the end of a long remembered good time held by the class of '28. P. S. We must not forget, we made exactly 256.50 ibut broke Art Caslani's drum and pop went the 3650.5 .,.. ' .- Page One Hundred Twenty-Iwo THE SOPHOMORE STRAWRIDE-MAY 31, 1926 That year we went to Woodbury Pond for our strawride. What a time we did have! Didn't the girls look kippy in their hats for the occasion? Straw hats, sailor hats, oh, all kinds of hats on display. Of course it had to rain a little bit, but we didn't mind that. At about noon We had a sort of basket lunch. Anyway, all that was left of the lunch was the baskets. And after lunch, our chaperons played ball with the boys. Couldn't Miss Knight pitch a whirler though 'Z Later in the afternoon some of the crowd had quite a thril- ling experience. Four started walking to the store and had gone about three-fourths of the way when Chinny Dessureau came a- long at a tearing rate in his two seated Ford, Leaping Orphe- lia . There were four other sophs in the car. Leaping Orphe- lia stopped with a jerk and the four pedestrians jumped in. All were ready for a nice peaceful ride, two clinging to the spare tire, four in the car, and two clinging on the running board. But Stubborn Orphelia kicked worse than a mule. She sputtered and sparked, took three leaps, then stopped dead. The occupants saw a man cominig toward them with an angry stride. He asked how many were riding on the car, took poor Orphelia's number and wanted Chinny's license. Chinny had forgotten it, but Renzo -came to the rescue with his. He made four of the crowd get off ,and walk, then he stalked off in high disgust. Thanks to Fuma- ,galli for that narrow escape! We had a ni-ce ride home and Leaping Orphelia stayed be- hind the truck all the way and acted like a lady to make up for her misbehavior of the afternoon. Misses Goodell, Knight, Gutterson, and Bixby were our peppy chaperons. The committee were Lena Galli, Alma Bianchi, Lucy Fontana, Babe Mariani, Renzo Fumagalli, and Nelson Dente. Alma Bianchi, '28 Arranged by Ema Savoia, '28. Pal One Hundred Twenty-three Elva Monti, President , Harold Dunleavy, Vice-President CLASS HISTORY-JUNIOR YEAR Memories of 1926-1927 September 7, 1926, all eyes were on the incoming freshmen as it was the first day of school. Room A, the junior room, was filled with classmates, cheerfully chatting, and welcoming new- comers. After a while, Misses Brooks and Dix succeeded in sub- duing the babble and din, somewhat. Then began that everlast- ing Sign your name, please which lasted throughout the day. One of the many instructions given was that of Miss Linsley, Bring your own paper and pencils to class. You are old enough to re- member not to borrow. 'Neither a borrower nor a lender be. ' The day ended without mishap, at least to the juniors familiar with all the turns and corners in the corridors, We juniors quick- ly fell into the schedule and soon all was running smoothly. About two or three weeks after school started, Alma called a class meet- William Ryan, Secretary Mary Simonelli, Treasurer ., mtlfwr EW i--, Page One Hundred Twentyefour ing and then resigned her control to Elva Monti, president, and Happy Dunleavy, vice-president. Mary Simonelli had all the moneys and Bill Ryan had the correspondence. The Junior Dance, November 19, 1926, was the first big blow- out in our junior year. Messier's Orchestra rendered the music for the large number of the student body, faculty, and alumni present. Much credit was due the committee: Elva, Marion, Lucy, Happy and Chief. The Junior's brilliance shone in Miss Linsley's English classes when the poets eulogized the celebrated Oliver Goldsmith. Four of the best poems were published in the February Sentinel fLook them up if you want to read them.J The fourth period in Room 22 was always looked forward to by Helen Barclay. Once in chemistry class, the discussion concerned hard and soft water. Helen sketched the various poses of the professor during his ex- planation. These may be valuable to someone some time. When Tassie was asked by Mr. Gale which candle would burn longer, a tallow or a wax one, he wisely answered The wax one. But he received the discouraging answer: Neither, They both burn shorter. Arthur Lunde's knowledge of crickets and all other wild animals revealed itself in French class. The home run scored by Gordon in math was a big hit. I wonder if Aileen and Barbara remember now whether to put the sugar in with the shortening or the dry ingredients when making a cake. Monday morning, Feb. 7, the juniors showed their dramatic ability when they had charge of the assembly. The theme of the morning concerned the time of Lincoln. The most important fea- ture fto the castj was the post-card given by Lunde to Ballard. 'Nuff said-Mr. Hosmer said all that was necessary later. On the 19th of February We piled into barges and headed for East Montpelier. We arrived about six o'clo-ck and immediately some invaded the dance-hall while the committee took to the kit- chen. The supper call came soon and thereafter we were kept busy evading missiles of bread, pickles, ice cream, cake, tenderly wafed in every direction. Martha increased the fun with her an- tics. She ran all over the hall, jumped over the platform, danced alone, and started the rest of us to playing. About 8.30, we began to take more interest in the games, as Mr. Henshaw told us we started for home at ten, which soon came. Martha's spirit was not dulled, even though she was flung to the end of the barge. She kept the rest of us amused with her Italian songs. The chap- erons in charge were Mr. and Mrs. Henshaw, Mr. Muir, Misses Fay and Tomasi. Time slipped by quickly. Mid-years passed-to our reliefg and soon would come the Junior Prom. A class meeting! A com- mitte composed of Carolina Galli, Doris Reaside, Robina McDon- ald, Mario Storti, Renzo Fumagalli, and Albert Robertson was elected to plan the biggest event of our first three years. And we immediately began to work. The date decided upon was May 13-- a superstitious one since it came on Friday, but nevertheless it proved to be lucky. We at once engaged Carroll's Orchestra for the occasion. For at least a month, we worked on decorations. Page Ona Hundred Twenty-five The week before was a strenuous time. On the last night Rob- ertson nearly lost his life trying to perform some acrobatic stunt. When May 13 arrived, the assembly hall had been turned into a gorgeous garden scene, with butterflies everywhere. Overhead, hung festoons of old rose and silver gray. The windows were transformed by colored curtains above small silver window-boxes containing pink flowers. The walls were giddy with many gaudy colored butterflies. Clingin-g vines adorned the balcony. Across the stage was a large arch of class colors, surrounding a large sil- ver '28. At each of the doors were arches supporting flowers and streamers, while at the back of the hall was a cozy corner, enclosed by an arch, used by the patrons and patronesses, Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Hosmer, and Mr. and Mrs. C. H. White. Opposite was one for punch., presided over by Elizabeth Alonzo and Emma Jennings, at- tired in our gray and rose. The Prom opened with a grand promenade, led by the officers of the Junior Class. Other special features were the favor dance, 35555552 25555555555Efxfffffffm':fffiiiiiiiiiiii5EZIHifffffff'E'EEE22QQQEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESEEZ'SEiilliiiailisiii .:Q55f55ESS5!:. s 5 is in which each person in the hall was given a favor, and a moon- light waltz, during which the spotlight shed its cofored rays around the hall. At midnight, the strains of Home Sweet Home sounded, leav- ing us tired but happy, and feeling well paid by the success of our rom. Soon we were preparing for our straw-ride to Joe's Pond. On account of the new road construction we had to go by way of Cabotg and when we got up on Walden Heights, the wind was b'owing just a little! As it happened, there was a baseball game at St. Albans and some attended that. Barton Sargent and Dente went to the straw-ride, but Frank Friberg came along and took them to St. A. They had a roadster so Barton had to ride on a tire. They took some of the lunches, but it didn't matter since we had a good sup- ply with us. We were glad to hear later that S. H. S. won. The day was spent in different ways. We had most of the boats. Mr. Gale attracted a great crowd when he washed his car. In the af- ternoon we had a ball game with the Hardwick class, which was also there. Martha was busy then, but it was with an individual this time. We started home by the way of the new road-a regu- lar rocky road to Dublin. To complete the end of a perfect day, the heavens started to pour! Graduation Week was upon us and we must decorate the Opera House. We succeeded beautifully until we came to the motto. For one thing it was long and the letters were never pinned straight. Finally, when all were in place and the committee felt that their task was completed, panel and all fell off. At last, when we were through, a senior came in and looked it over, and said, It's all right, but it's exactly like last year's and the year's before that and the year's before that. Encouraging, wasn't it? We decided that the Class of '28 would have a motto a paragraph long so that the next juniors could work! Friday, the tenth, came, and with our promotion cards we were dignified seniors! At last! Elva Monti, '28 Gladys Olliver, '28 Page One Hundred Twenty-seven May 21, 1927, We learned that Charles A. Linbergh and We had arrived in Paris 335 hours after leaving New York in his aero- plane The Spirit of St. Louis. SENIOR CALENDAR EE EE At last we entered Spaulding's grand old portals as seniors!

Rain-rain-heavy rain, all night Wednesday and Thursday morning, November 3, as we paddled to school and cursed our wet selves and books, especially those bookkeeping sets! Gloomy darkness everywhere, pierced only by the lighted class rooms. The visitors from up state, who were expected, failed to arrive. Mr Beede couldn't keep his date with that fellow because it was raining too hard. Boots would have been welcome en route home unless one was fortunate to find a thoughtful father and his car at the door. Some few went back for typewriting or shorthand, but Depot Square at that time was covered with sev- eral feet of water. Mr. White appeared nervous. Schools all over the city were dismissed before 2 ofclock. Anyone living at the north end of the city was fairly pushed out, lest he be unable to get home. Two o'clock, the fire apparatus dashed down Main Street and stopped at Rogers' Clothing Store. A still alarm! A fire? No! no smoke. Men looked downhearted and helpless. A cellar of water and two young volunteers missing! Potash Brook had made a new tunnel, only to force its way right through the store wall and engulf its victims. Splendid men! Courageous youth! Horrible deaths! Pathetic wives! Pitiful mother, as she trims the baby's hair, saying Won't daddy laugh tonight! Ting-a- ling, the telephone informs Eda Cecchini that her uncle barely escaped being caught on the stairs of that store. Three o'clock! Boom-m-m! the fire alarm calls for volun- teers. Waters are rising, help is needed to rescue goods from Main Street cellars. Pumps! Men hopelessly pumping! Four o'clock! The mentor calls for the National Guard to protect the citizens from walking to their destruction on certain streets. Serious faces! Hipboots! Slickers! Darkness! Five o'clock! Mary Simonelli, going to supper, saw in front of Mathewson School, a truck, turned overg another, on its sideg and a car, half buried in water. Ema Savoia found children sobbing that water was coming into their home and that their father had carried them out one by one and had gone back for their mother! People were running in every direction to help those on Second and Third Streets. Iole Carusi on Second Street was just going to sit down for supper when all of a sudden she opened the cellar door and found that the water was nearly to the first floor. Gathering a few clothes, the family Hed through water up to their knees. She was so frightened, she was sick all night. sidewalks, enormous ditches, dizzy holes, wrecks of autos. Tilted Pap One Hundred Thirty-six ' Omnious pouring rain! No street lights! An occasional fiash- light! Men, carrying lanterns! Frantic shouts to the house- keepers, Turn on your lights ! Those on the hills saw brooks or- dinarily six inches deep become swollen torrents of eleven feet in a few hours, only to become fifteen feet deep by eight o'clock. Eight o'clock! Madeline Hogg could not go farther than Drown's Drug Store on Main Street. Priscilla Cole was barred on Summer Street, at Pearl. Elm Street, Keith and Maple Avenues were rivers. Those across the real river were soon marooned. Nelson Street was badly gutted and guarded. Soldiers with seri- ous warnings! Cars bearing fleeing families! People moving everywhere. Women and children piggy back. An army marching toward Goddard! a legion toward Brook St. and North Barre Schools! More to the Armory. Quickly con- structed beds! Boys sent to the Hotel and the Grill for sand- wiches and coEee. The tireless tread of the ambulance, bearing rescued families and exhausted men to shelter! A hospital call from Maple Avenue. A team responded via the hill. Main Street a wild and whirling river! Eixaggerated rumors! Erick Hagelberg, proceeding down Washington Street in a car, learned that Lieut.-Gov. Jackson had disappeared in the brook damaging Nelson Street. He went to the Armory and reported, then started back with search-light to aid in the hunt. Margaret Rennie got over the bridge at Prospect Street while the protective fireman was otherwise engaged. As she reached the other side, he yelled loudly in a warning voice. A house and barn were journeying toward the bridge. A crash, a flash, scurrying forms, darkness ! Beatrix Park watched the little brook on Merchant Street engulf the hen houses in its valley, rise to the cellar of her house, and sweep down the road, digging a fifteen foot ditch as it went. Granite Street unfolded enough terror to Arlene Duncan so that she'd be willing to take a thousand tests than to go through another night like that. She saw water enter the hall. Some one hollered Fire Soon everyone in the block was yelling-for what he knew not. Store men started to wade. One was carried down stream, but shortly was rescued. The proprietor told his tenants to run for their lives, since the block was liable to cave in. Sick mother, weak grandma, and Arlene scrambled a few things together. With the Eskimo dog, they departednleaving lights on, door open, the cat, alone. A neighbor carried her grandma on his back, and all waded to the brick house round the corner, sat by the stove and waited to hear the block cave in. Arlene was so discouraged she wished she'd stayed to go down with it. As Harold Dunleavy watched the flood in Gunner Brook, he saw a man, walking too close to the bank, slip and fall. His brother and a neighbor grabbed the man by the collar and pulled him out. He was so dazed, either by cold or fright, that he ran off without even a thank you. ' l Muriel Newell heard a great crash. Looking out of the win- dow, she saw their garage and henhouse sail away. cars and a gasoline car were tipped over. Near a trestle by Harris0n's two or three box yards, 03d x-4 -u .-. CK l-. 0 .CI +2 CI H there was an engine on its side, almost in the river. Shed, Page One Hundred Thirty-eight Surrounded by five feet of water, with what little light there was, Dorls Reaside could see steps, boxes, fences, large boards sweeping down the swift current in the middle of Maple Avenue. . .Altho Gunner Brook flowed as easily down Laurel Street as it did in its own bed, Robina McDonald wasn't lashed to action until she saw all the neighbors hustling around moving furniture. When the cellar water bumped the wood against the kitchen floor, Robina was thoroughly serious. Cars were pushed up against houses, or poles. She heard crashes of glass as various windows went. Dogs were incessantly howling. Men were rowing boats on Brook Street as though it were a river. Carolina Galli reports that on the corner of North Main and Second Street a car was stalled. In it were four workmen. A swift current prevented their escape and their rescue. Inch by inch the water rose until it was up to the windows. Stepping forth and forming a chain, they moved slowly toward a shed of Allen's Lumber Company. They walked on the roof of the office and entered the upper story. IRavas not until noon next day that they were rescued, and by that time they didn't much care. Velda Bardelli's father, when carryinrg her to safety, slipped, and both went into the icy water! ' At about 8 o'clock, Rev. Kelly and several firemen started from the station in the old hand pumper, drawn by a pair of fine black horses, to answer a call for help on N. Main Street. At Cottage Street the horses were swimming and could not be turned to Maple Avenue. When they reached Beckley Street, they lodged against some wreckage. A truck floated down upon their Wagon and held it. They remained an hour in the water, holding on for dear life, pushing away the wreckage, shouting hoarsely for help until it came in the shape of a rope from W. T. Calder. O all you host of heaven! O earth! What else '! And shall I couple Hell YUHSHAKESPEARE. The greatest disaster in the south end was the destruction of several small houses on Webster Avenue. Scarcely a house was left unharmed. The tenants had little chance to escape because- it seemed that the Water -came with one great swoop. Boats were sent for. Rose Cerasoli saw a house sink lower and lower. Presently a woman, with a baby in her arms, appeared with a torch at an upstairs window. Shrieking to God, she jumped into the water. She was rescued. Cries for help, the rushing of men here and there, cars lined up with their spot lights focused toward the houses, from which came the screaming of women, the cries of children. One man swam out begging help for his family. Cold and hungry, he was taken to the Armory. A boat arrived.- Two boys rowed toward a house-four children stepped in. Shouts of Atta boy ! Tooting horns! Suddenly, horror! The current had caused the boat to tip over! One man swam toward shore, the other grabbed a child and was borne off down the river. Early next morning he was found on top of a stone shed with the child, who had died of exposure. Elsie Johnson, Erick Hagel- farther. go any Can't 0 road at all, just river. HN Road. BITS tB Eas Page One Hundred Forty berg, George Shadroui, Stathes Maniatty will never forget the dying yells of those children. One man and his wife were res- cued at 3 a. m. after he had held her chin above water for hours. Their baby had been wrapped in a blanket and pulled to safety via the pulley on Debitteto's stoneshed. Throughout the night, the rescue went on. As men became exhausted, they were carried to the Armory with the rescued and new ones took their places. The Armory! Tear stained faces of women. Crying and moaning children. Confusion! A mother with a baby in arms, tagged by five youngsters in night shirts. Little sleep! Much woe. Before my God, I might not this believe without the sensible and true avouch of mine own eyes. -SHAKESPEARE. Morning-dismal, rainy, gloom! Horrible truths! Destruc- tion of lives-of streets-of stores-of homes! Muddy slime! Enormous ditches, dizzy holes! Wrecks of autos! A gasless breakfast! Silent telephones and telegraphs! Empty water faucets. Cold and emerged furnaces! Isolation-only radio con- nection with the outside world. A school boy's dream comes true--no school. The waters had subsided leaving their awful slime and des- truction behind! Main Street was still a swirling river near De- pot Square! Eyery hill road was badly gutted. Potash and Gun- ner Brooks had worked their havoc. Gigantic holes yawned, side- walks were tilted, lawns were upheaved or covered with several feet of silt. Automobiles everywhere, upright, on their side, in ditches, on posts, battered and torn, and partly buried in mud! Wrecks! O woe is me, To have seen what I have seen, see what I See. -SHAKESPEARE. - Iole Carusi upon her return home found the front yard full of wood, barrels, cans of oil, boards. Inside, the water had been higher than the stove, and everything was damaged. One of many! Some homes and stores in North Barre com- pletely washed out! In the words of a Spaniard: Buy house five, six years ago. Fix up. Paint last year. Flood come. Nothing! Furniture go. Neighbors give stove. Barn go, hen house over there go-thirty chickens go. Red Cross give little wood and coal-good to wife-discouraged! Undoubtedly, the greatest destruction was in this part of the city. Near Beckley Street, the new cement road had caved in, railroads were lifted and badly twisted. Two dead fire horses, lost in their mad swim. Wood, boards, debris, everywhere. Granite Street Bridge had been moved down toward Black- well! and Marion Marr has found out that the longest way home is now the most sandy. Mary Donahue was determined to get to school. Her brother tried to bring her. She saw all kinds of debris and refuse on route to East Barre, where they learned No road at all, just river. Can't go any farther. Edith Cameron had already dis- covered in amazement that the fifteen foot bank, over which she was accustomed to run and step onto the E. Barre road was now chips on Barre's Rock of Ages engines hauled granite ssantly. Ce erywhere toiled in GV boys and ell Ofm rn 3 sv s-4 O Street Car Tracks Page One Hundred Forty-two one hundred feet high, since the river had changed its course and washed away road and bank over night. Railroad tracks were undermined. Daniel Halsall said: I've never seen such a mess a.s the tracks were in. Some were on end, making perfect picket fences. One had been deposited exactly over another. Some were twenty yards away in the river. One was wound around buildings like so much wire. Some washouts took two or three carloads of stone chips to fill. In the yards, two or three box cars, and a gasoline car were tipped over. Near a trestle by Harrison's Shed, there was an engine on its side, al- most in the river. Down by the Green House, there was a land- slide. It was dangerous working here, on account of a box car of dynamite and the gasoline car nearby. By waters of Babylon we sat down and wept! By the waters of Vermont they rose up and toiled. Saturday, the sun returned and it looked down upon a changed people. A wonderful change! Crews of men and boys every- where, toiling incessantly with shovels, pumps, pails, trucks. And a legion of women, doing Red Cross work, mopping floors, wash- ing vegetables, salvaging what they could. Lucy Fontana says her home was turned into a laundry for her less fortunate neighbors. Marian Keast, Ema Savoia, Elva Monti, helped to amuse, clothe and feed the refugees at the K. of C. Home. Alma Bianchi did dishes and mended at the Armory. Barbara Smith helped in the office of the Red Cross. Victoria Martin was always in the sewing room. Marion Barclay helped to feed the guards, who about drowned themselves in black cof- fee to keep awake. Elsie Waterman cooked for the homeless at N. Barre School. We all had our experiences Whether we worked abroad or at home! Some sad, some humorous. Cheerfulness was the most needed asset, for many of us had no water, no gas, no lights, no heat! Most of us would have jumped at a chance to have got back to school. While Elizabeth Phillips was watching the Hood, something tangled itself around her legs. 'Twas a pair of men's pants with 17 cents in the pockets! Later she lost her shoe in the slime of Barre and had to walk five miles with the rubber of the other foot. East Barre never looked so good to her. Eda Cecchini says someone hung out a sign at Depot Square saying No Fishing Allowed. But since trout were found in one of the cellars, it may not have been so inappropriate ! Laura Allen was about to buy a dozen rolls when some one yelled, Get out of the store and she was forcibly pulled out! An explosion was feared! No one will ever forget the thrills of seeing an aeroplane when we were first isolated from the world. A panic was un- doubtedly averted, when we received yeast by the airplanes. We learned what it takes man years to build can be wrecked in a very few hours, that we had had many things to be thankful for, which we had not appreciated, and that there are far worse things than school!

A 0-0 tie was broken in the last few minutes of the last quar- ter when Sierra was sent in as quarterback. F. Ramon made the touchdown, which ended many a fumble on both sides. October 1, 1927 SPAULDING, 0-NORWICH FRESHMEN, 6 The victorious fumble on which the Cadets scored, occurred in the Hrst quarter. E. Ramon ruined another touchdown by tack- ling their quarterback on the five yard line after he had picked up a fumble. But the N. U. player supposed he had made his goal since. he forgot that our field was not regulation with the goal posts ten yards behind the 100 yard line. On the remaining four downs, the Spaulding line held, and the game ended 0-6. October 7, 1927 SPAULDING, 6-BURLINGTON, 0 The feature of this game at Burlington was the touchdown by F. Ramon, who ran back a punt about 40 yards. October 15, 1927 SPAULDING, 0-RUTLAND, 25 The hopes of the state championship flew away at Rutland. Spaulding showed occasional Hashes and covered some ground by the aerial route, but Rutland's backs, Canty and Taylor, with per- fect interference, made long gains around ends and through the line. October 22, 1927 SPAULDING, 74T. ALBANS, 0 The St. Albans game was preceded by one of the peppiest mass meetings ever held in school, with song leaders and rejuve- nated cheer leaders. At the game, shivers of cold changed to show- ers of excitement. There were cheers afplenty. The play which is cherished in memory o.ccurred when St. Albans was expecting a line plunge by F. Ramon because we were only seven yards to a touchdown, but they were co.npletely baffled when E. Ramon threw a forward pass to Johnny Walker, who timed it perfectly, and ran for a touchdown. E. Ramon kicked a pretty goal. October 29, 1927 SPAULDING, 13-LYNDONVILLE, 13 This game at Lyndonville was a thriller, full of fumbles, which were mainly recovered by Spaulding, intercepted passes, smash- ing line plunges, and several trick plays displayed by Lyndonville. The thrill of the afternoon came when Hinds, the Lyndonville quarterback, fumbled the ball after being tackled by J. Walker. Pucci scooped up the oval, and running like a scared jack-rabbit, crossed the goal line with scarcely a man in pursuit. The Boston Globe aptly summarized the game, which was played by many substitutes, Spaulding defeats Lyndonville with a 13-13 tie . Page One Hundred Forty-seven FOOTBALL LETTERS On Thursday, November 3, the day before the annual clash with our rival, Montpelier High, the rains descended and the floods came and drowned all further football honors.

Mariani Page Ou Hundred Forty-nine BOYS' BASKET BALL December 9, 1927 SPAULDING 35, HARDWICK 25 Hardwick had an edge on Spaulding and was leading by a point at the end of the first half. There was a thrilling rally in the fourth quarter. Eddie Ramon played a flashy game and was a crack shot. December 16, 1927 SPAULDING 31, ORLEANS 17 Our second victory. Our opponents seemed like giants but did not prove puzzling! ORLEANS' coach praised Tassie. Jurras proved a dead shot. Dunleavy gave Smith a new experience to be held scoreless ! December 29, 1927 SPAULDING 29, ALUMNI 26 An unexpected S. H. S. victory-in the opinion of Barre Fans. Spaulding's team work kept them in the lead throughout and more than offset the strong and clever Alumni. January 6, 1928-at Hardwick SPAULDING 16, HARDWICK 18 Our first defeat. S. H. S. led until last quarter, when two lucky shots by Hardwick turned the tables. McGoff, playing his first game of the season, starred with Jurras. Mori and Hallihan formed the student support of S. H. S. The cheering of Hardwick would be hard to beat! January 10, 1928- at Montpelier SPAULDING 26, MONTPELIER SEMINARY 22 The game proved that size does not count apparently, even though at the end of the first half the score was 10-9 in our oppo- nents' favor. The Red and Blue worked well as a unit. January 13, 1928 SPAULDING 32, MONTPELIER HIGH 19 A record crowd welcomed the team in their kippy new suits. Montpelier threatened in the first quarter, which ended 8-6 in their favor, but at the half it was 12 all. In the second half, Bob Tassie got started and gave a wonderful demonstration of real guarding and shooting. January 17, 1928 SPAULDING 36, GODDARD 27 For once the game began on time. With Eddie Ramon acting as captain, Spaulding Speedsters took the lead immediately and kept it all the way through. Cholo's dribbling and Hoor work were sensational. Goddard was a good loser. Pu! One Hundred Fifiy January 20, 1928-at Burlington SPAULDING 22, BURLINGTON, 33 A fierce gale, a long ride, a defeat, and many thrilling exper- ences en route home! Burlington led all the time, but the half closed 19-16. January 24, 1928 SPAULDING 45, NORTHFIELD 42 The score 29-13 at the end of the first half shows how Spauld- ing outplayed its opponents. But during the second half, North- field strengthened her defense, and Wenhoff, the tall, rangy cen- ter, staged a rally, which almost brought his hitherto undefeated team to another victory. He was the best sportsman ever seen on our floor. Mariani was the high scorer with 17 points. Those Ramon boys treated the crowd to some fine pivoting. January 27, 1928 SPAULDING 33, ST. ALBANS 28 A game full of ties and thrills! First half 12-12, third -quar- ter 21-21, with a most thrilling finish as Mariani tore lose. The game was fast and decidedly furious. When Pasetto replaced Jur- ras, there were five seniors on the team. February 3, 1928-at Montpelier SPAULDING 28, MONTPELIER 13 Spau1ding's first victory on Montpelier's fioor in six years! The accurate shooting of McGoff was the outstanding feature. Montpelier got only two Hoor baskets. Pasetto furnished many a laugh by his spectacular pose during the last second of the game. February 10, 1928 SPAULDING 34., BURLINGTON 32 Without exception the best game of the season! During the first half, the Red and Blue played like professionals. However, two will be forever lauded. About two seconds before time was up, McGoff caged a basket which tied the score, and in the three minute overtime period, F. Ramon dropped in the telling counter. The first period was all Spaulding's and the half ended with a 5 point lead. But Burlington came back and proceeded to tie the score, from then on there were thrills aplenty as the score varied directly and inversely, with Spaulding behind 8 points at one time, and the score tied as many as four times. Great was the joy of all, for by this victory Spaulding was tied for first place in the league. February 15, 1928 SPAULDING, 26-NORTHFIELD, 28 At the very close of the game, Northfield caged two pretty shots and won a closely contested victory. Over forty fouls were called. Both teams were seconds by the end of the game which ended at 26 all. A three minute over time period spelled our defeat. Spaulding girls' team were guests of the occasion. Page One Hundred Fwy-one February 17, 1928 SPAULDING, 40-ST. ALBANS, 23 ' At St. Albans. St. Albans dropped three baskets at once, but then subsided and Spaulding scored at will. F. and E. Ramon alone made enough points to win the game. A very enjoyable dance was given after the game. February 21, 1928 SPAULDING, 40-GODDARD, 44 After being fagged by the untimely arrival of the referee from Montpelier, the crowd was treated to one of the most sensational games of the season. During the four regular periods, Goddard surpassed Spaulding in shooting. Three of the second team were sent in, and during the last minute of play, Jurras tied the score by a free throw after S. H. S. had been 11 points behind. This game set a record for over-time periods, for it took five of them to make Spaulding bend to defeat. February 24, 1928 SPAULDING, 27-MONTPELIER SEMINARY, 25 This was an example of the strong comeback our boys can make. At the end of the half, the score was 20-10 in favor of Montpelier. Jurras was the cleverest shot on the floor. During the last half, he got four floor baskets. March 2, 1928 SPAULDING, 21-BURLINGTON, 33 The game to decide the league championship! Over a thou- sand people witnessed the frayg with the student body, who had no chance to buy reserved tickets, loyally being pressed into canned sardines at either end of the hall. Our hopes of prefacing the We to the Beat Burlington sign ran high at the close of the first half when we were leading 13-12. But the loss of Cholo via the foul route was a serious handicap to the team. And Burlington's deadly scoring play of passing the length of the hall tricked the boys enough times to win that beautiful silver basket ball for a permanent trophy. On April 4, 1928, basketball letters were awarded to the fol- lowing: Captain Robert Tassie, Thomas McGoff, Edward Ramon, Feliciano Ramon, John Jurras, Harold Dunleavy, Howard Mariani, Edo Pasetto, and Philip Clark, manager. GIRLS' BASKET BALL December 29, 1927 SPAULDING, 24-ALUMNAE, 28 Score at the half:-Alumnae 22: S. H. S. 3. Late comeback in the last quarter, but as Jack Dempsey says, It isn't being done now-a-days. Nellie Paz Garcia was responsible for many of the 24 points. The BOOTH sisters starred as in former years. GIRLS' BASKETBALL TEAM E. Scott, L. Tassie, Coach Goodell, E. Mochetti G. Olliver, E. Savoia, Capt. Bianchi, L. Galli, N. Garcia Page Ou Hundred Fifty-three January 6, 1928 SPAULDING, 49-HARDWICK, 15 Gladys Olliver deserves much praise. Eleanor Scott played her first game. Hardwick fans were hot in Spaulding's praise. January 10, 1928 SPAULDING, 54-MONTPELIER SEMINARY, 5 The game was as uninteresting as the score shows. The girls even got tired of shooting for points. Splendid playing was ex- hibited by Nellie Garcia, who made 22 points. January 13, 1928 SPAULDING 39-MONTPELIER HIGH SCHOOL 17 Gladys Olliver, our star center, got knocked out by a cut in the forehead. She was out of the game just long enough to show what a difference she makes to the five. Nellie Garcia made 19 of the 39 points. January 20, 1928-at Burlington SPAULDING 15-BURLINGTON 30 S. H. S. were the Pygmies and seemed stage struck among their taller opponents. During the game, their courage was re- vived by three telegrams:-from Mr. Hosmer, Mr. and Mrs. Booth, and Fig Newton. Coming home, they kept wondering if they would experience Snowbound in reality. January 27, 1928 SPAULDING, 38-MONTPELIER ALUMNAE, 20 Nellie Garcia, playing only 10 minutes, was the high scorer with 13 points, while Capt. Bianchi got 10. All S. H. S. girls had a chance to play. Owing to the highly waxed floor, the game at times was comical. February 3, 1928--at Montpelier SPAULDING, 38-MONTPELLIER HIGH, 26 It was a slow game. Nellie obtained her usual number of bas- kets. Spaulding got the first basket and by accurate passwork kept a safe lead. Ruth Fay showed up well for the other team. February 10, 1928-at Barre SPAULDING 27-BURLINGTON 33 The hardest defeat of the girls-for hopes of state champion- ship flew away with it. But the girls were by no means failures if they were on the small end of the score. Nellie got a large score all by herself-18 points-though she was closely guarded. Tassie played a good game. The Burlington lassies wore snappy rigs. During the last period, Miss Niles, the star forward for B. H. S., got a bad fall on the floor. SPAULDING 27-ESSEX 22 Spaulding led throughout this rough and tumble affair. Only six fouls were called during the whole evening. Although the ref- ., Mimi- i - Pqv One Hanndnd Filiyfour eree didn't know girls' rules very well, and although he was one of the teachers, he tried to be fair in his decisions. February 24, 1928 SPAULDING 45-MONTPELIEER. SELMINARY 13 It was an tame affair, in which Spaulding subs got a chance to practise. Miss Munn from Montpelier played well for her team. March 3, 1928 SPAULDING 37-ESSEX JUNCTION 18 Did you ever go to a basket ball game at 2 in the afternoon? The game would have been more interesting had the girls played as long as they rested. Essex Junctio-n's forwards looked like 7th graders, but played a nice brand of basketball. No one of the Spaulding lassies starred, as no one remained in the game long enough. However, Mary Tassie proved her worth as varsity ma- teria . -On April 4, 1928, basketball letters were awarded to the fol- lowing: Captain Alma Bianchi, Nellie Garcia, Caroline Galli, Lil- lgan Tassie, Gladys Olliver, Ema Savoia, Eleanor Scott, Elva Mo- c etti. THE U. V. M. TOURNAMENT Spaulding was one of the eight teams chosen to compete in the State basketball tournament held March 9-10 at the Univer- sity of Vermont gymnasium. In the first two games, Springfield and Cathedral eliminated Burlington and Hardwick by scores of 31-23 and 26-25 respective- ly. I ' ' Spaulding then took the floor against the Presidents from Black River Academy of Ludlow. The game started at a fast pace with Spaulding piling up a 12-6 lead, and at the quarter, they still led, 12-10. The second quarter was also close with Black River leading at the half 21-20. In the third frame, the Presi- dents gained a lead of 33-27. The final period saw little scoring. Black River got only one and Spaulding only three points so that at the final gun -the Presidents emerged victorious 34-30. 3-,, In the other preliminary game, Rutland disposed of Northfield 28-21. The next afternoon Cathedral beat Springfield 30-28 in the most exciting game of the tournament, which was only settled after an overtime period. Rutland blazed their way nearer the championship by nosing out Black River 19-18. The final game brought a big surprise when Rutland, which had not been conceded to have a chance, topped Cathedral 20-15 to become the 1928 'State Champions. Although Spaulding was eliminated early from the winning, Capt. Tassie brought home honor by being chosen guard on the All-Vermont team along with Capt. Tarro and Racey of Spring- field, Dunn of Cathedral, and Boyd of Burlington. GORDON LANE., '28 if ,..- if ' . . . . W-'N ,,i::,s1s 2 . ' . Q g S ' 1927 BASEBALL TEAM QU Paset E.

For the fourth successive season, we had a cham- pionship baseball team. Why shouldn'trwe boast? This year inclement weather has afforded little opportunity for practice. S. H. S., 1-MONTPELIER SEMINARY, 12 In the first game of the season S. H. S. met defeat at the hands of Montpelier Seminary by the score of 12-1. Ryan and Murray pitched, while Tassie and Sierra caught. Many errors at critical times proved costly. S. H. S., 18-M. H. S., 0 On May 8th we journeyed again to Montpelier to defeat Mont- pelier High in seven innings, 18-0. Babe Mariani pitched, and allowed only two hits, was steady in the pinches and received good support at critical times. Fumagalli caught and was the heavy hitter, but Johnny Walker got a three base hit. S. H. S., 13-BURLINGTON, 14 Spaulding showed her hitting power but handed Burlington the game on account of errors. The cold weather severly ham- pered the pitchers, Mariani and Murray. Fumagalli caught. Spaulding amused the crowd in falling over themselves after the ball. S. H.

TRACK The prospects for track this year are not too bright, but with the weight of our material being in the lower classes it looks as though the coming years should put this sport on a creditable asis. The spirit of the-boys is one to be commended. Nearly 45 can- didates -are reporting and the interest in Track is such that one cannot help but prophesy a rise in value of Track Stock in the next two years here at Spaulding. ..

Page One Hundred Fifty-nine INTER-CLASS TRACK MEET The 1928 season started off May 7th and 9th with the class championship going to the sophomores by a score of 52-51-44-4. The seniors took No. 2 place while the Frosh garnered four points due to the persistency of Philip Craig in the broad jump and high hurdles. Johnny Woodruff, '30 was the outstanding man for the second year men, clinching the meet when he ran his leg of the re- lay from a handicap to the tape in two seconds less than his nearest competitor. Capt. Cholo Ramon scored highest when he took four firstsg in the high jump, 100-yard dash and both hurdle races, respectively. Cholo is a versatile man and this being his last year, he should create a record at the State meet, it seems. An- other outstanding star in the Class Meet was Clif Birnie, '30, who scored a close win in the 100 finals over Bill Suitor in 10 4-5 time. ANNUAL BASKETBALL CLASSIC WITH THE FACULTY The present sophs again earned the honor of contesting the faculty by their winning the class team championship. But this year, they found a well organized and expert opposing steam en- gine, which sometimes attempted football tactics and more often got strangling holds. Capt. Hosmer had an unerring eye from the foul line, sinking five out of five in the pre-game practice, and miss- ing only his last free throw in the actual game. Could we accuse him of using trigonometric methods? Denny Densmore and Goba Mori were as gentle as hungry lions and as modest as sunflowers. Bill Wilbur was a bear on the defense, crashing opponent after opponent to the floor with a fierce flying tackle, which most of us have seen displayed at Lincoln Campus. Dudley Noyes made and shot fouls spectacularly. The poor Sophs had little chance. Sironi was high scorer for the class team. 'Twas tough luck to bat a ball right into the faculty basket when they had such a lead already. Bob White, the referee, was accused of partiality, but what could he do, when the faculty had nerve enough to appear without a single substitute. CLASS BASEBALL The seniors have had one of the best ball teams all through their three years. They have won the Championship every year, and have won most of all their games, losing only one to the class of 1925. We, the seniors, won the class baseball league of 1927.

It was warmly welcomed then as a school representative. This year it celebrates its tenth year of existence and is a successful, well received magazine not only among our students but among other school magazines as well. The Exchange Department is large, having a mailing list of about seventy-five exchanges. Comments on the Sentinel from other magazines have offered many a bouiquet to our various de- partments. Our Art Department has always received a large part of the praise. The Literary and Editorial Departments have also gained much applause. In fact, all have merited and obtained favorable comments. Six times each year we pour our material into the great form of Sentinel , The first issue comes usually in some childish form, dressed either in freshman green or baby blue. It is largely done by the freshmen, with the guiding hand of upper classmen. Our next Sentinel image is more mature with perhaps a streak of silver in his hair. It is almost entirely the work of alumni and displays some of the finest workmanship, which we put forth during the whole year. Alumni support has been fine during the five years, in which we have had special alumni issues, and we appreciate their interest in us. We can say that Sentinel is always well dressed, with sometimes a foreign touch to his garb, when the alumni have contributed. Sentinel next makes a radical change and dons his clown suit. Every year he strikes a different pose. Maybe he's an April Fool or a Valentine or an Irishman on St. Patrick's Day or a Chinaman Chop Suey conglomeration or the figure of Hard Luck. He always succeeds in amusing even that august body-our faculty. When he has had his fling, he enters again in the spring in one of his more serious characters and also one of his finest. The workmanship which we have waited all year to polish into a splendid form comes forth. He is named Literary this time and commands a deal of respect and praise. And lastly comes our Commencement Sentinel dressed in cap and gown grasping in his hand the scroll of graduation essays, history, will, prophecy, ode, presentation speech, and address. He says a fond farewell to the graduating staff who have helped him make up and pose, and goes to rest until the next fall. His attendants have recently been increased. There are nine- teen members on his staff now. He has initiated three class re- porters to his group, who have helped him a great deal this past year. iL 'fEl-'JH',f: 'ivKi5FW ll l J P Page One Hundred Srldy-Jive OUR ECHO STAFF Business Manager, Beatrix Park Art Editors, Marion Barclay, George Laing, Eda Cecchini Snap Shots, Elsie Waterman Advertising Editors, Robina McDonald, Arlene Duncan, Arthur Lunde Literary Editors, LeRoy Dopp, Winthrop Ballard, William Prescott, E.

Willi Page Ons Hundred Seventyefour SPAULDING SCHOLASTIC S According to a custom started in 1923, Spaulding Alumni As- sociation awarded on November 28, 1927 a scholastic S to each student in the sophomore, junior, and senior years who had at- tained the rank of 90721 for his past year's work. Mr. John Wen- deli Smith, S. H. S. '21 and Yale '26, in presenting the insignia Sal : Mr. Hosmer, Undergraduates of Spaulding, Members of the Faculty: I count it a rare privilege, though a somewhat paradoxical one, to be permitted to address this assemblage this morning. I mean that had this system been in vogue when I was a student my name would probably not have been on the list. l 4 ELSIE WATERMAN, '28 I have not been so long out of Spaulding that I have forgot- ten the curriculum, its difficulties, and the student reactions to- ward it. I rather feel that almost any one of you who wanted to win the scholastic 'S' very badly could do it. The great enemy that the school officials-not only in Spaulding, but everywhere- have to fight is the attitude of the student. That attitude of the absolute minimum-nothing more-which says: 'I shall learn no more than is requested of meg I shall try for a. passing grade, but beyond that I will not go.' It is astounding what a great percentage of students take this attitude. Many of you came to Spaulding resolved to learn just as little as you could and stay. These few who are to-day to be awarded the scholastic 'S' have shown, as I say, not necessarily a greater knowledge or greater wisdom, but they have shown at ' 4 . .sm 1 f ik., ' J 1 - 5' v'N'.DL7 g it . aw ww. Pan One Hundred SeventyJive least a better appreciation of the purpose, for which they are in Spaulding. They have been willing to go a little beyond that ab- solute minimum. I can remember the attitude, with which I came to Spaud- irg. As a freshman here, I am sure that I would have been ashamed to receive one of these 'S's' because it might have been construed that I was trying to do well in my studies. This would have meant social ostracism for me. Imagine a great, brawny football player having fallen so far from grace that he wanted to get an average of 90. It just wasn't done in my day, and I don't think times have changed very much. The freshman, seated in the igallery, comes to s-chool a little bit early to copy someone's algebra paper, the senior, busy with a multitude of things, is assigned an essay to write,but fails to find time so goes back and copies one that was handed in in 1916 and gets an 'A.' She for heb laughs in her sleeve and thinks she is beating the system and the instructor. If you could only appre- ciate that the instructor doesn't care whether you write that es- say or not, but the writing of it and the resulting criticism of it might serve to edify you a little bit! Ignorance, the instructors can possibly help, stupidity they are absolutely powerless to cope with. That is stupidity-not ignorance. The people who follow srch a practice are going to revel in stupidity and mediocrity all their lives. At the college that I had the pleasure of attending, it is the custom in the senior year, just before graduation, to hold a straw vote, in which certain questions are answered by members of the senior class. I recall that one of those questions was: 'What hon- or do you consider the most to be desired in college '?' Do you know what wins always? It is not the captaincy of the football team or the basket ball team. What always wins is the Phi Beta Kappa key, the symbol of excellence in scholarship-the college counterpart of these same 'S's' that are being awarded today. I congratulate the winners of these 'S's' as heartily as I would congratulate the members of a winning football team- perhaps a little more heartily. Seniors :-Lucy L.

The Seniors made one mighty hit on the nites of April 12 and 13 with their unbeatable combination of a corking show and even better cast. , Mr. Simmons fWinthrop Ballardj has explained to his wife fGladys Olliverj that he has picked an ideal husband for their daughter, Ethel, in the choice of Chet Binney, his partner. Now Mr. Simmons' plans go a little awry owing to the fact that Mrs. Simmons considers Chet CGeorge Laingj slovenly, tight, and man- nerless--in other words, a mess, again, in fact that Ethel CEma Savoiaj, comes home from Chicago with a new man, Roger Shields fVictor Ruebhausenl, and new ideas. When Ethel turns Chet down cold, because he is not a man of the world and has never sowed any wild oats-as her friend Roger has-Mr. Simmons plans for his partner, an original reputation. Letty Lythe, a beauteous movie queen, is chosen to be the other corner of the imaginary triangle. Chet is made popular over nite with the home-town folks and Ethel becomes engaged to him. S0 everyone is happy until- Letty Lythe CCarolina Gallil comes to town with her fiancee-direct- or Donald Swift QHarold Dunleavyl. When they hear of all this, Swift, who is insanely jealous, believes the story, while Letty plans to turn the tables on Chet by playing up to his bluff. And poor Chet, in this tangle because of his maybe-father-in-law's clever plottings, is ready to give up the ship, while Mr. Simmons is in a worse mess because Sadie Bloom's handbag has turned up to arouse Mrs. Simmons' suspicions of him. His dancing teacher, Sadie, fAlma Bianchil cornes to get her bag, is discovered, and in- introduced as an old flame of Chet's. Swift still insists on fighting Chester, urged on by the thwarted rival, Roger, and that comes off-in accordance to Chester's plea-as a fight in the dark, sim- ilar to the one in Swift's latest film. The lights go off, and when they come on again, amid much din and darkness, Chet jumps from his perch on the table, on top of Swift and 'Shields-who have been fighting each other-and names himself the winner. So he is -even Ethel decides so. Other actors were Priscilla Cole and Ethel Sowden who played friends of Ethel, Annie, the maid, Elsie Waterman, a taxi-driver, Leslie Vantg Mrs. Ja-ckson, Marion Barclay: girls, Victoria Martin, Robina McDonald, and Barbara Smithg also ai band, chosen from the Spaulding orchestra, made up of Charles Cooper, Ruth Meaker, Frances Sargent, and Nelson Stuart. Miss Eva G. Smith, director of the play, was presented with a bouquet of roses by Philip Clark in behalf of the Senior Class, who wished to express something of the gratitude which they felt for her, both in making the play a success and in her everyday cooper- ation with them. E. MARIAN KEAST ,-. ' ,. .... 3. .,,,. Page One Hundred Seventy-nine SENIOR PLAY NOTES A circus is a good name for The Whole Town's Talking. Friday the thirteenth surely proved lucky for us. It was the first year that any seats had been reserved. The experiment proved successful in all ways. The ushers were:-Philip Clark, Harry Broggi, LeRoy Dopp, Arthur Lundc, and Albert Robertson. The ticket takers were:-On Thursday, Robina McDonald, Martha Granai, Alice Salter, Ellen Wheeler. On Friday, Robina McDonald, Arlene Duncan, Laura Allen, Doris Spence, Nellie Garcia. The box-office was in charge of Leslie Vant, Victor Rueb- hausen, Gordon Lane, and Harold Dunleavy. The play was postponed once from March 25, 26, because Gladys Olliver had a sprained ankle, sustained while on her way to a rehearsal and Victor Ruebhausen was ill three weeks with tonsilitis. There were three versions of the play-the one in the book, the revised one created at rehearsals and the one actually spoken on the stage. Laing nearly broke a mirror. And in the nick of time, Geor- gie saved someone on the front row from having a tea wagon in his lap. ' The wood sawers hand shake, original with Ballard and Dun- leavy, became popular at once. The lights almost ruined the fight in the dark the first night. The curtains ripped from the top just as they were being pulled on the last scene Thursday evening, but thanks to Miss Dix, they were skillfully repaired. Total receipts 35653.25 Expenditures 105.56 Net Profits 547.69 ASSEMBLY DRAMATICS On January 16, Ruth Flint and Alma Bianchi dramatized Les Lunettes Qui Fassent Lire under the direction of Miss Tomasi. On February 27, the sophomores gave a farce, He Loved Kipling . The characters were: George M-cKinnon, John McAn- drew, Bernard Mulcahy, Lois Morrison, Irene Cox, Ruth Meaker, Margaret Barnett. On May 14, under the direction of Misses Dix and Goodell, Mrs, Rip Van Winkle showed the contrast in the working devices of long ago and now. Priscilla Cole was Mrs. Rip. The old fash- ioned ladies were Eleanor Scott, Marian Keast, Alma Bianchi, Marion Barclay, Dorotha Edwards. The modern girls were: Alma Nash, Ema Savoia, Lena Galli, Barbara Smith, Barbara Powers.

ALUMNI MEMORIAL TABLET After much detail work and careful inquiry the special com- mittee from the Executive Committee of the alumni, Lauraine Densmore and Stanley Tassie, purchased a splendid memorial tab- let, honoring the graduates of Spaulding who served in the World War. It is a fine hand finished cast Statuary bronze memorial panel 28 X 42 inches. A base relief eagle and ribbons surmount the dedication, In Honor of Spaulding Graduates Who Served in the World War, 1917-1919 . Below are one hundred and thirty names. An appropriate program is being prepared for its presentation to the school, May 30. The committee has Worked long and faith- fully and deserve much praise. DEATHS Caroline Anderson, '17 August 16, 1927 Marion Cerasoli, '27 January 12, 1928 Benjamin Fadden, '17 January 26, 1928 Marion W. Anker, March 31, 1928 Page One Hundred Eighty-three AT STATION IDBX, BARRE EE EE CLASS or 1922 Before the story of the great flood in Vermont is complete, one must mention an earnest young man in Barre, George Cruick- shank by name, who though an amateur in wireless communica- tion, nevertheless proved a real professional in the emergency of last Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, before wire communication with the outside world was restored. Besides proving himself an adept at the work this young man also proved himself an inde- fatigable worker as he spent hours and hours at a stretch, never leaving his key, as he shot messages into the air to be picked up by stations in the far districts not affected by the flood. Cruickshank's office was in an upper room of the ancient Paddock House in the Jockey Hollow section of the city, better known as the south end nowdays. Up the winding stairs, back along the hall, a turn to the right and then another turn to the right: and there you were right in George's office , A desk, a bunk, two chairs, and a tangle of wires that mean nothing to any- one except a wireless operator constituted the equipment, backed by tireless energy and a canny knowledge of wireless operation, this young man Cruickshank was filling the breach of disrupted wire service, of absolutely disjointed railroad service, of broken road communication, of absolute silence to and from the outside of Barre. Anxious individuals striving to find out what had happened to relatives and friends in other places and equally eager to let friends know of their own safetyg local press correspondents and special reporters sent from Boston newspapersg business men or- dering goods to replace lost and needed stocks: sorrowing relatives of persons lost in the flood, one and all were clamoring for servi-ce on George's little wireless apparatus. Needless to say, George's hands were more than full and a stack of messages, outgoing and incoming, told of the good work which this wireless operator did in those hectic hours when all other sources of communication were broken. There the young operator sat, hour after hour, dotting-and- dashing off these Varied messages which were picked up by wire- less stations in Massachusetts, and, in turn relayed to their des- tinations. At times Cruickshank was spelled by other amateurs who sat in at the keyg but to Cruickshank goes the major part of the credit for opening up communication between Barre and the outside world. Just how much good he did with his amateur wire- less set-well, let the appreciative public tell of the wonderful service he performed up there in his little office on the second story of the Jockey Hollow house. We'll simply say George filled the gap, bridged the rushing waters, penetrated the gloom of ab- solute silence. Well done, Cruickshank!
