30 sToNINGToN HIGH SCHOOL YEARBOOK Freshman Class of N36 President, Aleck Nasiatka Secretary, Madeline Meuse VicefPreside'nt, Frederick joseph T1eas1we1'.'losephinc Santos The Flippant Froslr The Freshman class of this year is certainly the largest in the history of the school. The class has taken for granted that it can do any' thing without permission. It is a very noisy class in general and has not shown the proper amount of respect for the Seniors. Socially the Frosh have failed, because they have not followed the custom of Freshmen classes of former years in giving a social. This annual affair, which was usually well attended, has been missed hy the upper classmen. Failing socially, the Frosh have redeemed themselves in the athletic Held of their school. Among their athletes whose names will be ref corded in the S. H. S. hall of fame are: joseph Pont, Clifford Jones, Joseph D'Amico, Donald Reed and Bill Sylvia. The Freshmen are to be congratulated in their effort in striving to pay their Athletic Association dues, in order that their room might be one hundred per cent. This class is distinguished by a few excepf tional scholars, but no intellectual geniuses. The Freshmen are an unusual class in that its members may be found to have talent in certain lines. In the music field are Madeline Meuse, Arthur Freidman and James Rittenf house. The Freshmen, in doing their bit toward putting on enjoyable assembly programs, dis' played dramatic ability in presenting a one' ilct play entitled, The Boy Comes Home. Those taking part in it were: Joseph Pont, Frederick joseph, Louise Kelso, Ruth Vargas and Clara Melvin. Among those socially prominent are: Marf guerite Welsh, Madeline Meuse and Mary Shannon. We sincerely hope this class will follow the traditions upheld by their predecessors and will further the standards of sociability of S. H. S. during their remaining high school years. Elsie Piver

They are somewhat reserved and have earned the title of L'Austere. They hold themselves aloof and have not taken the proper amount of in' terest in the affairs of the school. There are no real intellectual geniuses in this class, but there are several students who have attained high scholastic honors and are the pride of the class. The Sophs have been somewhat slack in paying their Athletic Association dues, but on the whole have done as well as could he ex' pected, considering the financial difficulties of today. However, the Sophs can look with pride upon their athletes, who have taken a promif nent part in the athletic activities of their school.
