L illian Quinn February 16, 1931 A dance sponsored by the Junior Class under the leadership of Class Advisor, Mr. Mullen, was held in the Assembly Hall. The music furnished by Ramona Fallows, James Bates, Clinton Read and Kenneth Graham, the coffee and doughnuts served as refreshments, and the fine spirit shown by the students and members of the faculty conspired to produce an atmos- phere then appreciated and now pleasantly recalled. December 18, 1930 The main feature of the Annual Junior Christmas party, which was held in the Assembly Hall, was a musical comedy, Circus Days, directed by Miss Florence V. Sharkey. The audience was in a tumult of laughter from beginning to end, and Howard Maxwell, as the Hula-Hula Girl, was the hit of the entertainment. The play was followed by dancing and games under the direction of Mr. Francis Mullen, Class Advisor. The orchestra consisted of John Moran, James Bates, Ramona Fallows, Henry Shepard, Clinton Read, Kenneth Graham, and Mary McCarron. 85

E dward Franklin April 17, 1931 The Annual Junior Prom was held in the West Warwick Junior High School Auditorium, which was artistically decorated under the supervision of Mr. Grinnell. The Auditorium was almost filled to its capacity, and one only had to see the happy couples dancing to the pulsating music of the Night Hawks Orchestra to realize the tremendous success of the affair. The receiving line consisted of: Mr. and Mrs. Winfield Potter, Mr. Fran- cis Mullen, Class Advisor, Henry Shepard, Class President, Mrs. Victor Laurence, Mrs. Frank Duffy, Mrs. Patrick Quinn, and Mrs. Charles Kernan. May 8, 1931 Arbor Day was observed this year with an especially pleasing program. Exercises were held in the Assembly Hall, and Eugene Hebert, Senior class president, was in charge of the dedicatory exercises. The tree was dedicated to Miss Dagny Olsson, a member of the Class of 1930, who died March, 1931. May 15, 1931 The West Warwick High School was represented at the Pawtucket Dramatic Day when members of the Senior Class presented A Patchwork Quilt, directed by Mrs. Mary I. Fogarty. June 22-27, 1931 It is unfortunate that the CHRONICLE goes to press before the Commence- ment activities take place, but from past experiences of the Class of 1931, we all know that they will make this year's Class Day, Senior Ball, and Class Banquet the biggest and best in the history of West Warwick High School. 87
