A FRESHMAN ' S POINT OF VIEW (Continued from Page 16) breakfast ready by the time the excited but- doesn ' t-show-it pupil is up and dressed. Then we start for school, hailing some pals who are still in grammar school. Of course they are young, but of course one must not let them think we are letting them down now that we are in High School, no indeed! Finally we arrive at school, one of the many who don ' t know where to go or how to get there. After much straightening out, the first period bell rings. After some mistakes you get to the right room somehow. Yes Sir! High School is much more exciting than Grammar School and so different! Then finally the seemingly short day comes to an end. After much discussion about the various teachers and informing the younger members of the family about the grand first day, nine o ' clock comes. Though ordinarily early no reading is done. Nine thirteen— all quiet. Nine fifteen— fast asleep. So ends a perfect day. Kathleen M. Tully ' 37

PRATTLE HIGH SCHOOL LOWDOWN HOWDY folks! It seems that a great many of our schoolmates had quite some vacations. Outside of those who went to the World ' s Fair, we have Alice (35) Etherington taking in Europe; Ned (35) Chapin, likewise; Dick (35) Macallister, in Mr. Beals ' camp, along with others. Then we have those who stayed at home, like Armand (34) Chicoine, who played baseball, went to fairs and such- like. Of course, there were the Freshmen who spent the summer between two emotions: Triumph and Apprehension. Freshmen at a glance: There ' s George Car- penter, quiet and orderly The traffic Offi- cers wish there were a few more like him Marjorie Hong, quite a sophisticate Dan Vecchia, who makes quite a hit with the wo- men Little Guerino DiBonaventura, would like to be a cave man but his size is against him— besides, he plays the violin.. ....Fay Wil- liams, likes to draw cartoons and has an am- bition to draw those Mickey Mouse Movies ....Bobby Reed, small, but energetic. ...Richard -Fox, who by the time he becomes a Senior will be giving Clark Gable a few sleepless nights Janet Gibcault, who loves civics, and hopes to get by on her looks Patsy Hartwell, a girl of mystery, for we tried all sorts of ways to discover her hobbies, ambi- tions and the like, but no go Nancy Ed- wards, very excited because she is a Freshman Sammy Frederico, making faces in an at- tempt to become an actor Bill Blakely, not in the least frightened at the overbearing manner of the Juniors.. ..Well anyhow, good luck children, you only have four more years. Mr. Brockway, it seems, has to go and round up his Review Math class every day— especially the boys. He threatens that the Last Round-up will be any day now. • A kaleidoscopic view of the Freshman Re- ception: pig-tails and short dresses At- tempted childish laughter Bill (34) An- drews ' red socks Mr. Tabor ' s white linen knickers Green crepe paper People slip- ping and skidding on the too well waxed floor Miss Finnegan saying, You ' ve had one glass of punch already Miss Kidd ' s green outfit and doll Lollypops Honey (35) Price trying to explain the games above the ex- cited clatter of Freshmen Rubber soles were envied in that game of picking up chalk Mr. Beals, grinning and nodding his head... ...Probably the most successful party yet. Can you see any resemblance between: Florence Stephanie Victor Claude June Laile Armand Raymond Oscar Rita Howard Betty Marjorie Flora Mary Ann Vinny ' 31

NOVEMBER 1933 3 HIGH SCHOOL (Continued from Page 13) I am not disappointed in High School. I like it very much and, some of you may laugh, but it ' s true— I like all the homework too! I get quite a lot of it and enjoy doing it, ex- cept when a good movie is playing at the theatre. When I first heard of the Glee Club, I re- solved to try out for it. I did, but there were many others who sang better than I, so I did not get in. I haven ' t given up, however, and will try again next year. I like the idea of study periods. They come in handy and I always get a part of my study- ing and homework done during my study periods. Of all my subjects, I like Civics best. It is very interesting to learn about the towns, the beauty of homes and the like. Marjorie Hong ' 37 ALUMNI NOTES (Continued from Page 17) Ellen Callahan ' 28 and Leo Dumais, June 26.
