Along the path that leads to life We meet new friends and old. We know new friends are silver, still Old friends are always gold. The world is waiting for us all For parting time is near, With good advice each one will find His separate career. In four years here we’ve learned to love Our friends and teachers true, With eyes ahead and hearts so strong, Our spirits zealous, too. In days to come when we have gone, From all our friends bereft— To brighten all our stormy days But memories are left. 'Though skies seem grey and cloudy, too. And parting brings us pain, If we but love and hope and pray, As-friends we’ll meet again. Marguerite Crandall. (Class (0ftp We have come to a fertile oasis In the desert of ceaseless work, But we know that many mirages In this journey of ours still lurk. Yet our four years of travel together In dear old Westerly High Have taught that beyond the visions Our cherished goals will lie. So let so mount our desert ships Of steadfast duty and hope; Let us fill our canteens with the water of zeal. And advance at an even lope. Let not the sands of despair Entangle our weary feet, For those same sands will teach us That rest after toil is sweet. And if perchance we should falter. If it’s hard to go one step more. Let’s recall this, our first oasis. Class of nineteen thirty-four. Vivian Morrill.

We wish to thank you sincerely for the cooperation and good will which you have extended to us during our strenuous, yet happy, career. How generously you have sponsored our athletic events, our cantatas, our prize speaking contests and our plays! In a few more weeks we shall leave the building which has sheltered us so long; and go forth into the world, where we will meet many difficult problems. These, we trust, will be made much easier for us because of the tireless efforts of our faculty who built the stairs up which we are climbing to success. To them we extend our sincere thanks, and hope that they will continue their good work with the classes that follow us. Last, but not least, we have this year the special privilege of thanking all the alumni and friends who contributed toward the construction of the new fence around our athletic ground. We feel very proud indeed of the Craig Memorial Field. For the past three years, we have been endeavoring to reach a certain landing on the stairway which leads to success. Although we have found the climb exceedingly difficult in places and have had to grasp desperately at the railing to keep from slipping backward, we have at last attained that greatly coveted goal. Strange as it may seem, we look down with regret upon those very steps that have given us so much trouble—but also so much joy. The stairs ahead look steep indeed when we think of climbing them without the help of our teachers and classmates. For this evening, however, let us cast aside all sorrow and enter heartily into the fun of the program which has been prepared for us. You will hear some very distinguished degrees conferred upon our scholarly classmates—listen to the reading of our last will and testament—learn from a most psychic soothsayer the fate and fortune of the members of our group—and see the gifts which some very generous donors have purchased for us. “May your joy and ours be unconfined!” —Joseph Gencarelli The Senior Year Book — 1934 (Class ffitstarif SCENE: A room in a girls’ dormitory at Westmore College, in November, 1934. My roommate and I are talking to one another. My friend is busy putting finishing touches to hair and face. I am watching her, while now and then glancing at a book in my hand. “Why, Marge,” I ask incredulously, “you’re not going out again ?” “Uh-huh.” comes my roommate’s distracted reply as she gives a final pat to her fluffy hair and an anxious glance at the glowing reflection in the mirror. “Helen and I are going to the theatre. Won’t you come, Babs? We’d love to have you.” “No, thank you, dear. I think I’ll write a letter to Mums.” “Well, take care of yourself, old dear,” and with a hug and airy kiss she is gone, leaving me with a momentary feeling of loneliness, for Thanksgiving vacation is likely to be lonely when one is a freshman at a distant college. “Well, that’s that. Now where do you suppose I’ve put my writing paper? Come to think of it I’ll have to start on that new box in my trunk.” 1 hastily procure the writing materials, but, while getting them, I happen to notice a group of High School Seniors” which I have brought from home as souvenirs of my high school life. I pick up the Commencement issue and idly turn the pages, until I come to the class pictures. I haven’t seen any of my former classmates since graduation; therefore it is with a pleasant feeling of reminiscing (all thoughts of letterwriting forgotten) that I carry the book to an old rocking chair by the fire, and, slowly rocking to and fro, lose myself in the past. As I look at those happy, expectant faces, my mind travels slowly back to my first year at High School. How imposing and venerable that ivy-covered building had appeared to my inexperienced eye as I first entered upon my career there. The upper classmen treated us as they have treated freshmen from time immemorial with an exasperating big brother and sis- ter “attitude,” thinking that we, poor things, in our ignorance, would deeply appreciate their condescension. We resented the attitude, however, and rallied to the occasion by holding a class meeting and electing officers who would protect us from upper classmen. Addison Archie was, we decided, just the one for president, for we certainly needed a mighty Goliath to wield the gavel. Betty Crandall’s sweet manner would, we felt sure, break all barriers; thus we elected her our vice president. Joseph Gencarelli was given charge of the minutes of our meetings, while little Agnes King efficiently took charge of our stray bills. Scarcely had we launched upon our life at the Senior High, when the news reached us that we must move. We had heard rumors of this intended removal to the Junior High, but we hadn’t dreamed that by February we would be installed in that magnificent building where the water was cold, and the janitor’s cat was not always under foot! Alas, we were too optimistic ! Combination locks for our lockers were the bane of our lives (especially for bus and train pupils!). I have seen the faces of many an out-of-town student go suddenly blank, while their fingers nervously twirled the dial. How I sympathized with them, for I too, had been an unfortunate victim of those same lockers. That year the operetta “Sleepy Hollow” was given by students of the Junior High. Those most delightful James twins (the only twins to grace our class, and then only for a year) participated in this performance in which Norma was the captivating Katrinka, while Walker Schofield was the daring young gallant who won fair Katrinka’s heart and hand. Walker is no longer with us, but we think of him affectionately and mourn him as one who can never be replaced. The end of our freshman year found us exhausted from the year's work and ready for a much needed vacation. The combination locks were returned with a secret feeling of elation that they would no longer cause us any harassing moments The Senior Year Book — 1934 of delay, and, freer than the air they breathed, the freshmen departed, their happy faces and joyous stride proclaiming the anticipation of summer amusements. How quickly those summer weeks fled! Before we realized it. vacation was gone, and again we entered old W. H. S., no longer feeling timid and uncertain, for was not a whole year's experience behind us? But we were still the underclassmen, for no Freshmen now roamed the stately halls or occupied the office chairs. (Personally I don’t think those chairs were left unoccupied very much, even after we had departed to the Junior High!) Again came that need to defend ourselves from belligerent juniors and seniors who feared we would usurp their lofty pedestals. Betty Crandall, whose pleasing personality and efficiency had already endeared her to our hearts, was chosen president, while Victor Panciera, with his cheerful grin and ready good humor, became vice president. Mary A. Nardone was elected secretary and Addison Archie, whose great brawn had protected us as freshmen, guarded our precious silver and gold. During this year our class rings were chosen after weighty consideration with due regard to design and cost. That same year a sophomore won second prize in the Martha C. Babcock essay contest, establishing the class literary reputation which it kept through the rest of High School. Thus did our sophomore year come to an honorable and glorious close. The fall of 1932 found us again returning to the portals of our dear old school. No longer were we underclassmen, and it was with a realization of our great responsibilities as juniors that we settled down to work. How well 1 remember the disastrous results of learning the fundamentals of chemistry; those unsightly manganese dioxide smudges, those acid burns, and other sundry obstacles. Nevertheless, we persevered, and we felt well repaid when, in the spring of '33, our chemistry team won the loving cup for Westerly High. How proud we were of that diminutive miss from Dunn’s Corners, Florence Saunders, when it was announced that she had won first honors for the girls, and of Alex Brown, who had received an excellent grade in the contest. (He later confided that he had really won first honors for boys, but, due to his Scotch nature, he had generously conceded it to the next highest!) What a glorious year that was, for the juniors carried off all honors except two in both prize speaking and the Martha C. Babcock Essay Contest. How well Narciso and Cappuccio delivered their patriotic addresses. In the Martha C. Babcock, Agnes King’s essay won first prize, and Marguerite Crandall’s received second. Athletics were also playing an important part during our junior year. In the fall football had occupied a great deal of time, especially that of Price, Archie, Gencarelli, and Gilchrist. Turrisi had been a most active soccer player, while that famous team, “Kizeik and Brown,” were prominent in track. (Anyone who has read Alex Brown’s story “Wobbly Knees” must realize the trials and tribulations of a runner who is just learning the art of acquiring the state where the legs and arms function quickly and gracefully, and the lungs succeed in sustaining his exhausted condition.) Due to a sad lack of money for a Junior Prom, we deviated from the usual course of having one, but we did give a Senior Reception, at which the junior girls proved to be most gracious and charming hostesses. Thus our junior year, successfully led by Alex Brown, president, Frances Johnson, vice president, Joseph Gencarelli, secretary, and Maybelle Ingham, treasurer, ended. Our final year at High School began one bright day in September, 1933, and, we, as “dignified seniors” held a class meeting as the first step in our course. And, with Joseph Gencarelli, president, Agnes King, vice president, Mary A. Nardone, secretary, and Robert Goff, treasurer, we felt that our barque would safely cross the final gulf. As I have said, we were “dignified seniors”; therefore you can imagine our chagrin when we were often mistaken for unruly sophomores! We, however, thoroughly enjoyed ourselves in spite of reproving looks and admonitions, and as the first important event of our Senior year approached, the “Senior Prom,” we felt that, at last, our dream was fulfilled. Matters of dress, decorations, and escorts (perhaps I should have put escorts first!) were discussed pro and con, and we felt a certain pity for those saucer-eyed sophomores who were rather vague as to the meaning of all the excitement. The dec- — S( - The Senior Year Book — 1934 orations were exceptionally in keeping with the season and occasion, for the Harvest scene presented to our eye was not only a symbol of an abundance of crops, but also an emblem of the fruition we, too, were reaping in the golden harvest of our high school life. Later on plans for a Senior play were discussed, and “As You Like It” was chosen as being very worthwhile and pleasant. How quickly our Betty Crandall and Rose Stillman were transformed into banished Rosalinds and Carle Morrill and Bob Goff into lovelorn Orlandos! During March the pictures for the Commencement Issue were taken, and everywhere one heard “Have you received your proofs yet?” or “Which one of these pictures do you like best?” or. again, “May I have one of your pictures ?” Suffice to say the matter of class pictures was finally ended, and our plans for graduation progressed rapidly. How sober and sedate we looked in our sombre caps and gowns, and with what trembling hands we received our well-earned diplomas! “For mercy’s sake, Babs,” cries a gay voice, “don’t you realize the fire’s out, and that you probably have already caught your death of cold sitting there?” “Oh, er, yes,” I reply confusedly, struggling to place myself in my own immediate surroundings. “Did you have a pleasant evening, Marge?”’ “Oh. indeed I did,” replies my roommate drowsily. “We saw ‘Memory Lane’ and—” But I didn’t hear the rest, for my thoughts were far away. I had not only seen “Memory Lane” but walked once more through those familiar halls, clasped the hands of old friends, and found there a solace and congenial spirit that had warmed the very cockles of my heart. —Vivian Morrill.

We. the Class of 1934, about to depart from this terraqueous macrocosm and being possessed of all faculties of mind, memory and matter, do hereby formulate this, our last will and testament, declaring null and void all similar documents formerly promulgated by us. We, the Class of 1934, bequeath our qualities and treasured possessions as follows: Item I: We, the Senior Class, be- queath to our esteemed faculty wards in the newly founded Boom-Bridge Sanitarium, where they may recuperate after the trying hours spent in Algebra, English, History, Stenography, Typing, Chemistry, French, Italian, etc. May heaven protect them from a repetition of this year’s ordeal! Item II: We, the Senior girls, leave our secrets of charm to the girls of the Sophomore Class in order that they may “Keep Young and Beautiful. We also, however, refer them to the philosopher. Buskin, who said, “The most beautiful things are the most useless.” Item III: We leave Miss J. B. Stan- ton alone in her glory as the best dramatic instructress who ever drew breath. Item IV: To Mr. Stevens we be- queath our patented automatic bridge-bidder that he may continue in his overshadowing of such insignificants as Lenz and Culbertson. Item V: To Miss Hanson and Miss McWeeney we leave a permanent pass to the Central Theatre, provided it be used at the end of the week when the thrilling serials are shown. Item VI: Our personal attributes shall be apportioned as follows: 1. We, Rose Stillman and Carle Morrill, bequeath our mathematical skill to Robert Kessel in the hope that our combined proficiency will help him in his place of occupation. 2. We, Frances Johnson, Vivian Morrill, and Marion Sullivan, bequeath our scintillating brilliancy to Ilse Heider, Mary Donati, and Theresa Siciliano of the Sophomore Class. 3. I, Louis Cappuccio, bequeath my hereditary love for polemics to my younger brother, Joseph Cappuccio, in the Junior High School, realizing that no one but a Cappuccio is mentally equipped to fill my place with becoming dignity. 4. I, Ellsworth Peckham, bequeath my curly hair, lock by lock, to all my female admirers in the High School. 5. We, Tony Gradilone and Ethel Wills, bestow our athletic prowess upon next year’s football team in the hope of a better season than last year’s. 6. We, Ellen Crowther, Eileen Browning, and Peter Olcowick, bequeath our quietness to Roger Gould, trusting that it will dampen his boisterous behavior. 7. I, Patsy Perri, leave my private gumscraper to Elyot Menick, who is very amateurish in his performance of the recondite profession of gumscraping. I may add, the class has left a goodly supply of used gum in unsuspecting places for him to practice on. 8. I, Robert Goff, bequeath my Apollonian grace on the dance floor to my unworthy brother, Edgar Goff, in order that he may carry on the terpsichorean standards of the family. 9. I, Henry Clarke, bequeath my collection of tardy slips to Kurt Harries, who is reputed to possess a collection second only to my own. 10. We, Alex Kizeik and Alex Brown, bestow our running harness upon Bedford Byrom and Douglas MacCall, but we suggest they remove the braking device, which we had to install for “Safety-first” reasons. 11. We, William Price and Addison Archie, bestow our combined unruffled nonchalance upon William Lamb, who appears to be the very essence of embarrassment. —4f The Senior Year Book — 1934 12. We, Harold Barber and Charles Cofone. bestow our Euterpean talents on the Westerly High School Orchestra that it may struggle along without us. 13. We, Adelaide Spicer and Eleanor Campbell, bequeath our own system of lip talk and Indian sign language to Doris Pierce and Mary Pothier, who have shown desire to communicate under the most unfavorable conditions. 14. We, John Laing, George Carson, Natale Trebisacci, and John Trontales, bequeath our title of the “Four Horsemen” to Earl Brown, Harold Brown. Ann Brown, and Ruth Brown. 15. I, Florence Saunders, leave my gargantuan dimensions to George Anderson, who needs a sturdier physique in order to succeed in the battle of life. 16. I, Joseph Gencarelli, bestow my skill upon the baseball diamond upon Donald Graham, my protege. 17. We, Betty Crandall and Agnes King, will our versatility to Joseph Gor-mally and Stephen Chernasky of the Junior Class. 18. I, Dorothy Murphey, bequeath my bright outlook on life to George Wildes, who is inclined to take existence too seriously. 19. We, James Richmond and Salvatore Frustere, bestow our admiration for the understanding of the fair sex on James Parnigoni and Michael Olcowick, who have declared independence of women in general. 20. I, Thomas Douglas, bequeath my title “The Flying Scotsman” to Andrew Low; also an excerpt from Samuel Johnson, “Much may be made of a Scotchman if he be caught young.” 21. We, Maybelle Ingham and Ruth Kenyon, leave our skill in typewriting to George Greeley, trusting that the finger exercises will be of assistance in his piano playing. 22. I, Annie Pizza, will my facility in Italian to be distributed among the present Sophomores taking the subject. 23. I, Angeline Matarese, bestow my infectious giggle upon Jean Robertson, of the Junior Class, who is inclined to be too gloomy. 24. I. Hugo Waters, leave my title “Duke of Dunn’s Corners” to my baby brother, Genio Waters. 25. I, Louise Beaudreau, leave my beauty hints to the Junior girls that they may continue to uphold the standards of pulchritude established by the Senior girls. 26. We, Parks Toolin, Lyman Blake, and Ambrose Kenney, bequeath our chestnut manes to Janet Coleman, Russell Johns, and Ethel Maines, the sole survivors of a fast disappearing race. 27. We. Everett Holman and William Thompson, leave our scene shifting dexterity as an aid and comfort to the next Senior Play Committee. We do hereby appoint Mr. James Maxwell. who probably knows more of the praisworthy archive of our class than anyone else and who has always evinced an interest in us, the sole administrator of this, our last will and testament. In witness whereof. We, the Class of 1934, the testators, have to this, our final testament, affixed our hand and seal, this twenty-fifth day of June, Anno Domini, one thousand nine hundred and thirty-four. Alex. Brown.

We now present the latest news flashes coming to you direct from our studio in White Rock. Peter Olcowich, famous explorer, was recently led astray by his guide, Albert Gervasini, and fell into the hands of hostile savages. A young missionary worker, Miss Vivian Morrill, exerted a soothing influence over them, however, and held them at bay until Addison Archie in his airplane landed and executed a daring rescue, with the help of a fellow aviator, Everett Holman. New York City, N. Y. Munroe Graham. theatrical agent, has just dismissed Miss Dorothy Murphey and Miss Frances Johnson, formerly singers in his theatre. Instead, in an effort to revive the old-fashioned songs, he has hired Miss Alice Riley. Boston. Mass. Alex Brown, cartoonist. is being sued by Natale Trebisacci, business man, because of a caricature which the latter resents. Mr. Brown, however, has hired Louis Cappuccio as his lawyer and hopes to win the case. The offending picture appeared in the weekly journal published by Miss Agnes King. Miss King, upon the insistence of Mr. William Price and Miss Eleanor Campbell, who write for the paper, has dismissed Mr. Brown in order to preserve the good name of her journal. Saddle River, N. J. A liner owned bv Lyman Blake was yesterday reported sinking out at sea. Later reports. However, state that all took to the life boats and were picked up by a submarine, captained by Salvatore Frustiere. Among those on board were Evelyn Crandall and Rose Siller, ship hostesses. St. Paul. Minn. A submarine owned by Ralph Merltbew early this morning became entangled with the apparatus of James Richmond, diver, and. severing his connections with his boat, left Mr. Richmond stranded on the bottom of the ocean. The modern diving equipment being very flexible, he walked about until he met Seba Edwards, looking for unusual fish for his aquarium. Mr. Edwards gladly gave Richmond a tow—not, of course, for the purpose of adding him to the before mentioned collection. Buffalo, N. Y. John Laing, banker, was recently rushed to the hospital to undergo a serious operation. During the ordeal, the surgeon, who happened to be Paul Murano, became so unduly interested in the attendant nurse. Miss Elsie Signor, that he made a mistake and removed Mr. Laing’s heart. The error was noticed by Katherine Sullivan, also a nurse, and the missing article was returned. Since Mr. Laing is being extremely unpleasant about the unfortunate mistake, Dr. Murano stated today that the next time a similar accident happens, he will refuse to restore the heart. Chicago, 111. The new beauty shop operated by Miss Margaret Booth advertises low prices and efficient service. Besides that, the assistants, Louise Beau-dreau and Hannah Cross, are always willing to pass away the customer’s time with the latest news. Independence, Ohio. June Maine and Catherine Hepworth have recently returned from France where they were completing their study of French, and they now refuse to talk any other language. Ellsworth Peckham, after an attempt at conversation with them, was forced, due to his ignorance of the language, to retire and find some easier conquest, some one, who, to use his own words, “would talk United States to a poor bachelor.” (By the way, Mr. Peck-ham is considered an exceedingly eligible bachelor.) Paris, France. Mr. Robert Goff objects to being called a “gigolo.” He maintains that if he and Mr. Gencarelli are to earn their daily bread, dancing is as good a way as any. Besides, he asks, what would Prudence Devine do if they gave up their positions as professional dancers in her night club? Mr, Eino Lu-oma, orchestra leader in the same night club, has caused very strained relations - 4 17 ►- The Senior Year Book — 19.34 between himself and his two fellow workers by saying that he isn’t sure anyone would miss them very much. Geneva, Switzerland. Albert Glazier, mountain climber, will take a tourist across the Alps at a very reasonable price. If the person is in an accident and is hurt, Mr. Glazier charges half-price, and, in case of death of the individual, he absolutely refuses to accept any fee. Canton, Ohio. Ambrose Kenney, fire chief, last week called out his trucks to go to a forest fire. Arriving on the scene, however, he and his men found only Parks Toolin looking for bugs to dissect in his laboratory. Mr. Toolin is requested to wear a hat hereafter. Westgrove, Penn. Carle Morrill, one of our eminent citizens, was today seized by a strange fit in which he insisted he was Pythagoras. He was finally quieted and agreed that he really must take a rest from his advanced study of mathematics. Miss Dorothy Nelson, who has been engaged in the same field, now bids fair to outdo Mr. Morrill, since she shows no such dangerous symptoms. Westerly, R. I. The two partners, Henry and William Clarke, have been prevailed upon to open a branch department store here. They doubt if they will sell men’s clothing, since they are unwilling to monopolize the trade of Herman and Victor Panciera, local tailors. But their salesladies, Virginia Cataldo, Emma Azzinaro, and Nellie Adamo, will sell practically everything else. Combine P. H. Opie’s, L. Solomon’s and the Five and Ten, and you have Clarke and Clarke, nation-wide retailers. Louisville, Ky. After the teachers’ convention held here last Saturday, Betty Crandall, Physical Education teacher, met Angelina Matarese, teacher of French, with whom she went to the home of Florence Saunders, Algebra teacher, who called up Kathryn Campbell, teacher of English, asking her to come to meet and confer with them. Adelaide Spicer, principal of the school in which they all teach, was thoroughly talked over, discussed, and criticized and a good time was had by all, including Miss Spicer, since she knew nothing whatsoever about it. Providence, R. I. Rose Stillman, architect, is planning to design a new high school in place of Classical High which burned down last week. By the way, some suspicious individuals are inquiring as to who burned down the old building. Westerly, R. I. Chief of Police Charles Cofone announced today that due to heavy traffic in Dixon House Square, Douglas Dion will be stationed there during the busiest times, Sunday mornings, particularly. New York City, N. Y. Harold Barber was almost elected mayor here today, the only drawback being that he did not run. There is little doubt that with Mr. Barber’s host of friends, including Edmund Booth and John Trontales, prominent business men, he would have succeeded in winning the election if he had been a candidate. At any rate, Miss Palma Moscaritolo has been very kindly informed by Mr. Barber that, if he were mayor, he would hire her as his private secretary and Miss Mary Nardone and Miss Annie Pizza as assistants. Mr. Barber evidently expected to have a huge correspondence. London, England. Mr. Richard Leon announces that he has discovered a new star, which, added to the three stars, five planets, and nine constellations he has already brought to light, makes quite a collection. Washington, D. C. Hugo Waters, porter on a train, was surprised yesterday when Miss Marguerite Crandall, poetess, rushed up to him and breathlessly pleaded that the train be stopped. When this was done, she calmly seated herself and proceeded to write a poem about the surrounding scenery. Mr. Waters’ remonstrances were interruptetd by Thomas Douglas, who strolled up to ask the cause of the delay. Mr. Douglas, being a comedian, saw the humor of the situation and urged Miss Crandall to continue. About this time Dorothy Oulette and Josephine Peters, recent brides, came up, accompanied by their husbands. Upon their insistence. Miss Crandall completed the poem, which may be read in this evening’s “Star.” Adrian, Mich. A great interest is evinced in Miss Ellen Crowther, fortune teller, newly arrived in town. It seems that she prophesied that Mary DeBar-tolo would inherit a fortune, that Annette Van Bramer would meet her future husband while traveling in Europe, and that Sylvia Rindell would be disappointed in love, all of which have come true. Ruth Kenyon is seriously consid- —•§( 18)8 — The Senior Year Book — 19.14 ering consulting this wise seeress as to whether the certain dark young man who has offered her his heart has a bank account as large as he professes his heart to be.

CLASS MOTTO Without labor—nothing Absque labore—nihil CLASS COLORS Blue and Silver - 4 30 The Senior Year Book — 1934 Athlrtirs ALTHOUGH the majority of the Westerly High School athletic teams suffered a decided decline in success during the past year, they did not lose any ol that traditional fighting spirit characteristic of all Blue and White players. Hie first picture is that of the football team. Despite the fact that it lost nine games and lied one. the team had as much fighting spirit as any other football aggregation in the history of the school. lx d by Captain Addison Archie, the inexperienced team of the early season gained football sense quickly, and by the end of the season was making creditable showings in the games. Last fall's team was the last eleven coached by our very able mentor, D. Harold Rogers. The next picture is that of the cross-country team. Led by its brilliant co-captains, Alex Rizeik and Alex Brown, it enjoyed a fairly successful season. The crowning achievement of last fall’s hiil-and-dalers was the work of none other than the flashy co-captains who, hand in hand, tied for first place in the Eastern Connecticut-Western Rhode Island Conference Championship, and set a new record for the Stonington course. The third picture is that of Captain Gradilonc and his mates who turned in. this past basketball season, the best record ever compiled by a Blue and White team. Their most brilliant success was a 30-27 defeat which they pinned on Norwich Free Academy as the result of an overtime game. Coach Leo Smith began his first season as court coach here this winter. The next plate portrays a very capable track team. Led by Captain Morrill, the team made an excellent showing in the first meet of the season, with the State College Freshmen. The team, undoubtedly the strongest ever to represent the High School, bids fair to make a very good showing in the Rhode Island Interscholastics, which it won last year. 'Flu last picture is that of the Blue and White baseball team. Led by Captain Gcncarclli, the club has broken even thus far this season. The 1934 nine is noticeably stronger than that of last year, and will, wc think and hope, make an excellent showing. —Carle Morrill. FOOTBALL Addison S. Archie, Captain; Robert Goff.
