Class History JVIr. Stein leaned back in his swivel chair, put his Eeet on the desk Before him, and drew out his fifty-cent cigars. As usual, he felt like relaxing today. His secretary. Priscilla Hilliard, rang. He reached out to press the button. A Mr. Gould to see you, sir, she said. Ah, the new vice-president! Send him right in. Mr. Stein hastily removed his feel from the desk. The door opened slowly and a gleam of recognition entered the president ' s eye as a figure entered the room. He jumped from his chair with the energy he seldom showed and greeted the man with a hearty handshake. Why, Gouldo! he exclaimed. I don ' t think I ' ve seen you since those good old clays at Weymouth High School. A blank look appeared on Mr. Gould ' s face.

They did a swell job. Yes, but the track team really went to town, interrupted Dick. Under the coach- ing of Mr. Page, the boys took first place in the annual Inter-Scholastic Meet.
