I937 THE ANNUAL U N DERGRADUATES The underclassmen of Watertown High School have already made a name for themselves, and bid fair to be credits as seniors to the school which has had so many outstanding senior classes. The class of 1938, at present middlers, contains many eminent young people. There are exceptional scholars, among whom are included Anna Walter, Lefteris Lavrakas and William Rote, all of whom have been on the super-honor roll. Thes- pians are not lacking to this class. Their class play brought forth the talent of Shirley Reese, the newcomer to the class from the South, Robert Johnson, Belle Stanley, William Rote, Helen Rosenske, Jack Walsh, Marjorie Chase and Gordon Cate. In the All School Night some of these already proven actors in addition to heretofore untested ones made a line showing: Agnes Fiske, William Rote, Leigh Sawyer, Belle Stanley in the operetta, Robert Johnson and Hugh O'Brien in the play, and Louise North, Shirley Reese, Norma Nelson, Nancy Wilson and Margaret Grogan in the dancing. The athletes of this class are numerous: in football, William Mona- han and Tom DiPace, next year's co-captains, also Lefteris Lavrakas and Thomas Carney, in basketball, Allan Green, Benjamin Stonoga, Warren Kelly, in track, Salvatore Simone and James Mannix: and in baseball, Lefteris Lavrakas and Ernest Ford. There are also some very capable girl athletes: in field hockey, Mary Yuchne- vicz, Helen Campbell, Marjorie Chase and Vivian Seipleg in basketball, Helen Rosenske, Ethel Cooper and Vivian Seiple, and in tennis, Judith Chick, Marjorie Bruckner, Marjorie Chase and Nancy Wilson. The class of 1939, which is our present junior class, has not had as much oppor- tunity to show its merit, but even so it has shown great promise. The intelligentsia of the class includes Aurora Pane, Betty Tevlin and Margaret Kurkjian. The juniors this year did not present aplay of their own, but many of them took part in the All School Night program. Among these the most outstanding is Philip Hart who ap- peared as nine year old Bobby Stubbins in the play. He will probably assume leading roles in his middler and senior plays. Also in the All School Night entertainment Were Thomas Boylan, Ann Guidrey, John Kirker and Marion MacDonald. The out- standing athlete of the junior class is Gscar Khederian who stars in both football and baseball. Another baseball star is Frank McHugh who next year will become regular pitcher of the team, and who this year won every game he pitched. Ray Whelan was a bulwark of defense on the football team. Stuart Newell is interested in both football and baseball, while ,john Kirker is outstanding in track. A credit to any class is Margaret Kurkjian who, in addition to being an honor student, plays the piano with the touch of a genius. 60
