Tliroiig ' hout our associations with him, Ins a])i)i-eeiation and friendslii]) have enabled ns to call him sini|dy this—a real friend; and no more sincere a compliment can he paid to any man. Glass (poem WIJAT IS TO COME WE KNOW NOT W]iat is to come we know not. But we know That M hat has been was good—was good to show, Better to liide, and best of all to bear. We are the masters of the days that were —• We have lived, we liaA ' e loved, we have suffered . . . even so. Shall we not take the ebb who had the flow? Life was our friend. Now if it he our foe — Dear, though it spoil and break us!—need we care What is to come? Let the great winds their worst and wildest blow, Or the gold weather round us mellow slow; We have fulfilled ourselves, and we can dare And we can conquer, though v e may not share In the rich quiet of the afterglow What is to come. William Ernest Henley “Adventures in Enfflisli Literature” ffarcourt. Brace and Company, PuhUshers WADE L. GKINDLE Principal ur Instructors ] Ir. Bertra iI Aluro. Pag ' es of Avhat would seem to tlie uninitiated merely a jumble of ({iieer words with long marks over some of the vowels eonie to life under the ex])ert uidauee of Air. Albro and his wise-eraeks. There is never a dull moment in his classes for i Ir. Albro has a refreshing ' sense of humor which keeps bis pujuls on the mark. IMr. Otis Alley. Sometimes we wonder if IMr. Alley didn’t miss his calling for besides being an eminent scientist, he is thoroughly ac(jnainted with any snb- j(H ' t yon can name. Giv(m a topic and an unlimited amount of time, IMr. Alley could hold bis listener’s attention for hours on end with his interesting and little known facts about anything and everything. A willing and ca])able organ¬ izer of any job asked of him, IMr. Alley certainly is an all-i ' onnd good fellow. IMiss Frances G. Allison. Once again onr library has been ojiened for the general use of the school with IMiss Allison the capable and cheerful librarian. However, her duties in the library have not dimmed her enthnsiasni and love for the liomance Languages, for any one of her pupils can tell yon she certainly knows her S])anish ! IMiss IMarion Bailey is the jiretty effervescent lady Avho produces such re¬ markable ])lays via the Dramatic Society. In sjiite of the fact that IMiss Bailey has been more or less separated from the majoi ' ity of the student body this year, her jiersonality and charm havi ' kejit the Di-aniatic Sociidy as flourishing an activity as ever before. The academic year BO ' b-lfklT may long be remem¬ bered as the year when the Freshmen wiu ' e a body unto themselvi ' s and IMiss Bailey juit on ‘AVby the Chimes Bang”. Mr. Edward Bartlett. “Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou, Romeo?” Ill Room 14 would be the answer if anyone should ask! The envy of all the boys, admired by all the girls and liked by teacher and student, Mr. Bartlett has made a name for himself in many ways since his arrival in the Winchester High School in ’33. Besides being the assistant coach in the boys’ sports, he is also an accom¬ plished actor as we may recall from the preview of the Junior-Senior (bass Play, “Mania’s Affair’’. Miss Ruth Bennett. “The quick brown fox jumjied over the lazy dog”. If we were to invade Room 10 in the middle of some busy period, we might find a class of busy future stenographers carefully fingering out this odd sentence under the direction of Miss Bennett. This charming lady not only turns out expert typists but is the faculty advisor of the business end of the “Highlights”. LInderneath all this responsibility and seriousness there is a live ly bit of humor. Did you ever see such a contagious smile? And those dimples! Miss Helen Bronson is a living examiile of “How To Do Many Things at Once and Do Them Wdl”. Always on the go, Miss Bronson seems to be every¬ where at once. As head of the Commercial Department of the High School, she is on call for any typing, mimeographing, etc., that anyone and everyone finds for her to do. She never seems to get tired and always has a ready smile for your request. Mr. Arthur E. Butters is one of the most jiopular members of the faculty. A wizard at any kind of mathematics, he can place geometric figures on the blackboard in such a manner as to cause dismay among all his geometry students. However, math is not his only interest, for golf is a favorite pastime. He shoots in the eighties, a score of which many would be proud to be able to boost. Here in school, he is the hard-working class advisor for the Juniors and what would we ever do without his help on the Prom Committee! Miss Gertrude Carmichael. “Freshies, ” we hope you realize what a friend you have in Miss Carmichael. Always ready to help and counsel, she does much toward starting you off on the right path in your High School Career. At the first thought you may think her a wee bit stern, but you will soon discover a lively sense of humor, and say to yourselves—“She’s all right!” Mrs. Estelle Coffin is the very efficient mistress of Room 7 in the Wad- leigh. Perhaps few in the main building would know her since she is new this year, but to those who are in her mathematics and current history classes she is help supreme. Before coming to Winchester, she lived in Newton. She has also lived in Indiana and taught in a suburb of Chicago. Her hobbies are books and horseback riding. She has a remarkable library consisting of several hundred volumes. ] Ir. Dana Cotton is the man of a thousand friends. Wherever he goes, Mr. Cotton wins the friendship of all who meet him. Interested in everything, and es})ecially horses, Mr. Cotton has made a place for himself in the liearts of all. Faculty advisor of the Traffic Squad, he has done a remarkable job maintaining peace and quiet in the corridors between periods. In our estima¬ tion, he is just about tops! ] Ir. Frederick Delzelle. A master of the baton, Mr. Delzelle’s skillful guidance has improved the orchestra 100 percent. For the last few years the orchestra has existed in name only, but now we have the real thing. He has studied abroad and has also attended the New England Conserv atory of iMusic. Other orcliestra.s have also lieen fortunate enoup;h to have him as direetor. Jxumor says tliat there is soon to he a Mrs. Delzelle. May he eariy on his fine woi ' k here in the future! Mr. hxAL ({. (tOoi). lietter known as “Coaeli to tlie hoys, is that new 1( ' aeher down at Vadl(‘i” ' h who has the flashy smile (and ties!). Stei)])ing in to ratluu- a hard place, his cheerful way with all, soon made him a favorite. Put at dualcontrols, he teaches the freshies both Aly-ehra and Oeneral Science, while he s])ends his afternoons coachiu ' football and baseball. When all is said and done, he of the Al -eraic eiiuations is really ])opular, but who is there to wonder at it? iMR. Samuel i I. Oraves. Ajicient history is his subject and under his clever ' uidauce the freshmen seem to absoid) a large amount of it. Ilowewer ve siispc ' ct that the ])art of the period that both the ])ui)ils and i Ir. Graves himself eiijoy most is the time ])ut in heatedly discussing politics. Outside of school we know him as a most successful actor, often seen in the productions of the “Little Theatre Beneath the Spire.” The oidy objection most of ns have to him is his most uu])leasant habit of giving daily ({uizzes. i lR. Wade L. Grindle. Humorous, friendly and an understanding leader, he is genuinely intei ' ested in school activities and individual achievements. Num- bei ' ing among his sports are badminton, and mountain climbing, with a flashy game of ])ing-])ong in his brief leisure moments, lie has jn-oven himself an apt si)eaker at iumiinei-able assemblies and is regarded as one of the school’s most versatile actors. IMr. Grindle is distinctly a fine man to fill his all-importaiiL ])osition of princi])al. iMiss ERNE Hale. A new teacher came to us this year and we w ' cre very agreeably surj)rised. Though quiet and unassuming, she has made her presence felt to both students and fellow teachers. Even if she didn’t have much chance to prove her ability because of the lack of sno v this winter, we know she made a w ' illing and much-liked faculty advisor of the Girls’ Ski Club. IMr. Raymond Hayw ard is that -wit su])reme who thought up a large ])ercent of the gags used in tlie Vandeville Show. AVhenever someone waiits a humorous title, a good story, or skit, IMr. Hayward always comes through w’ith the best. Have you ever w ' atched him make dimes disai)pear right under your eyes? Or i)erhaps we should say, try to watch? IMr. Hayward is that liard-working individual who directs the difficult job of getting out the A. A. Season Tickets in the Fall, and a mighty good jol) he does of it, too. IMr. Robert i l. Keeney. “Hence, loathed IMelancholy!” For that is just w hat ha])})ens w ' hen you enter a class of IMr. Keeney’s. You may expect to be called by any name but your own during this ])eriod, and, strangely enough, enjoy it immensely. The names of Bob, Bill, Dick, etc. are all just Julius (])ronounced yul-yus) or some other such thing to him. IMr. Keeney has a knack of bringing to life the long dead but not forgotten (much to the disgust of many of us) Johnson, Keats, Shelley, etc. Described in modern language and ex])lained in Mr. Keeney’s ow n inimitable style, they seem like all right people! IMiss Inez Keli.er. That bright-eyed teacher who comes to school in a grey “Chewy” every .Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, is Haverhill’s gift to the faculty of Winchester High. She is the teachei ' of Arts and Crafts, a new course in school this year. Her hobby is all kinds of handicraft. Long after school hoin-s she can be found ui-) in the art room trying out new ideas on crafts. She spends her summers down in Maine, teaching metal craft to Canq) girls. ] riss Hazel Kingsley is a coinjiarative strang-er to most of iis, lint those who do knoY’ her have many eomi)limentary tilings to say alioiit hei-. Vs yon pi ' ohably know, she presides over the Art Department of all the Winehester sehools, and graves onr fair sehool with her prescmee several times a week. In spite of this big job, i Iiss Kingsley ahvays has a smile and a eheery word for eveiyone. iMiss Ethel Knowlton is the possessor of that sunny disposition and eheery “Eonjour, IMademoiselle oii JMonsieur’Even if you haven’t taken Ereneh and you don ' t know what she is talking about when she reels off in that language, you ean understand her radiant smile. Were it n ot for iMiss Knowlton’s expert management of the business and advertising end of the Junior-Senior (’lass Play, the elass treasuries would not have so much to offer for the exjienses of the Prom and Year Book. JMr. (3tis Leary is another teacher of Y ' hom we wish we could see more. Reign¬ ing supreme at the Junior High School, we rarely see him for any length of time. Instructor of IManual Training, he is the guide of our carpenters. Under his guidance and insiiiration many boys have made Kyaks vdiich have brought them many hours of enjoyment during the summer. Not only is he proficient at making things out of wood, but he is also an expert at })ing-pong, badminton and bowling. IMiss Mary IMackedon. In her classes French becomes so simple that it really amazes her pupils to discover hoY much they have unconciously learned. She has a wonderful sense of humor and is so human that she is far from being just “un autre professeur”. But don’t be misled into believing that one gets away Yuth anything. Those who neglect their French soon find themselves spending the seventh period in Room 22. To almost everybody the French jieriod is one of the pleasantest of the day. Mr. Wendell Doolittle Mansfield. Since B)25 IMr. Mansfield has been engaged in directing the fortunes of our various athletic teams. His formal title, if you please, is, The Director of Physical Education, but everyone knows him and addresses him as “Coach”. The result of his coaching have been many teams which carried the Red and Black through strenuous campaigns to championship honors. He is always seeking to increase his alread}’ vast and sound knowledge of sports, traveling freipiently and reading avidly in (piest of this pur})ose. The success of the Ahiu-Devil Shows have been due in a large part to his able supervision. As for his oyui athletic background outsiile of college competition he played professional football and basketball and is a con¬ sistently fine golfer. Mr. Thomas L. Maynard. The faculty of W. H. S. acipiired a big addition last fall in 6 ft. 6 in., 215 pound Mr. Tom Maynard. The school was ([uite shocked, one Thursday morning, to find that this epitome of masculine health was in the hosjntal; but we felt a little better when we discovered that the doctor had removed from him the bigge.st ap])endix that had ever been brought forth at that hosjutal. Mr. IMaynard came to us from Rumford, Alaine, where he coaehed a cham])ionship track team and a one-act play that was very successful in interstate competition. AVe have witnessed examples of his successful iilays and will look for exceptional seasons with our track sipiads. Aliss E. Gl. ' Vdys Niven. AA hat a catastrojihe it Avouhl be if Aliss Niven aud her ca]iable force Y ere to go on a sit-doYui strike and refuse to serve lunch ! But we knoAv this Avoiild never happen, for Aliss Niven always has .such attractive ' food vaitiii” ' for us Avlioii that Itell idu ' i ' s. Ifcsidos inaua” ' iii � ‘ so cfficieiilly tiu ' cafeteria.

IMiss Eva Pal.mek, the heael eif the inatheiiiatics depaidmeiit, is jirohahly euie eif the best kueiwn ])ee)]de in the seheiol. Each year, by her eiideaveiurs sceires e)f stueleiits are pusheel many stej ' is nearer their res])ective yeials. She has a knack eif teachin i: peissesseel by only a few which woulel be an asset to any se ' lme)]. She is always ready to help the deserving ' , and tee i ' ive the unde¬ serving ' a eemsiderable shove in the right elirectiem. Tlmse who have not hael he ' r in class have inisseel a great oi)portunity. Miss Florexce A. Parker. Whatever would we do without iMiss Parker to guide us in our graduating difficulties and Yearbook decisions? Always ready to advise and counsel, iMiss Pai ' ker might be called the “Voice of Ex- ])erience’ ' for the Seniors. However, let it not he understood that JMiss Parker is all seriousness for there is a keen sense of humor hidden beneath her severity. i lRS. Genhuu) Nelson Parker, still better known as iMiss Nelson, is the cog in this great mechanism, the W. II. S., who for seven or eight years here, has been the main reason for the smooth running of the main motor, the office. Early last Fall the expected surprise was sprung and wedding bells rang on Columbus Day for her. Ve are sincere in wishing iNIrs. Nelson Parker all the success and pleasure in the futui ' e that we have had from her in the jiast. iMiss Lena Pearody. A remarkable dis])osition is self-evident in iMiss Peabody. This year, for the first time she has had all the biology classes under her wing. She enjoys teaching immensely, that is, if the class is not too un¬ manageable. Her ideal class would be that one which re(inired no discijdine, so that all the time might be spent in constructive discussion of biology. Students who elect biology as a snap course are soon disillusioned for iMiss Peabody knows it from A to E and teaches it accordingly. iMiss iMARiON Proctor. She is very tiny but in S])ite of that she is really an awe-insi)iring person. However, her jnpiils soon discover that beneath all that dignity she is amazingly friendly and great fun. She is a s]Mendid teacher and tlie tyi)ewriting and shorthand students learn (piickly and easily under her direction. Outside of school we understand that she enjoys both golf and skiing and is very proficient in both. Everyone knows lu ' r around school for hei- trim apiiearanee and her good looking clothes. iMiss Lillian Shea. Quiet, unassuming but very comjietent, iMiss Shea is the fair lady who jiresides in room 8 in the Wadleigh Puilding. She came to Winche.ster in the year when we, who are Seniors, were Freshmen. How¬ ever, if you remember rightly, we wei ' e in her classes for only a short ]ieriod of time. However, in that short time we learned an immense amount of English. Here’.s to iMiss Shea and long may she linger here! iMiis. Ella Stacy. Do ’ya wanna’ date? Mr.s. Stacy has plenty of them I ' anging from ().P .(’. to PKIT A.D.—and what she can tell you about tlu ' events happc ' iiing in that time! Wlu ' uever her black eyes begin to tlash and she gives a playful ])oke in the ribs, you know that you are in for some kidding. The best of it is, she can take it right back from you ! A grand si)ort, full of fun, and an excellent teacher, iMrs. Stacy is O.K. in cajntal letters. IMr. John D. Rtevenr. Friendly, hard-workin , IMr. Stevens has cer¬ tainly made a name for himself in the Winchester IIi� ii School. Supervisor of the news i)aj ' c of the “ IIi”hli ihts, ” Boys’ Ski Club Director, and Junior Fn ' lish teacher are a few of the many activities in which he is interested. We also leaiaual that .shooting’ ami feuciug are among his favorite si)orts. IbJievi ' it or not, JMr. Stevens rises at 6 aU) on school mornings and is never lat( to scliool ! All in all, lie is an all-round, all-right faculty member. i lR. J. Albert Wilson. J. Albert Wilson of West Medford has been for the past four years the director of the W. II. S. chorus. Numbered in his musical positions are those of C’ongregational (’hnrch organist and choirmaster, and Winchester (Jioi’al Society director. A further interest in the P ine Arts is his love for jiainting in which he indulges in all year round. A vacation home on Cajie (’od furnishes him with summer scenes, while week-ends see him in Maine in the winter, where snow panoramas take his fancy. lie has become quite pro¬ ficient in oils and has done some exhibitions in a Cape Cod barn which serves as his art gallery. Travel is another of his hobbies, but it is hoped that this desire will be restrained in future school terms so that he maj continue his splendid work with the glee club. IMiss Kosamond Young is the petite bit of sunny efficiency who adds so much to our “choice” faculty. The gym classes are something definitely not to be missed, and the girls’ varsity teams are noted for their fair ])lay and “winability. ” And then, of course, who of ns could ever forget the breath- la k ' ing stage debut made in the team of Bartlett and Young. Glass of 1937 iMAHdARl yr I.OKISE AWUh: “MAIIGIK Tall, poised, and dignified with a charming- man¬ ner, Margie has won many friends in the short time she has been in Winchester. She is taking- lessons in singing, and who knows but what some day she will be a famous opera star. Swimming- and dancing, particularly, are the “weaknesses” in which she in¬ dulges a great deal. Born in Cambridge, May 30, 1921. Activities: Chorus, French Club, Traffic. Hobbies: Music, Stamps, Water Sports, Dancing. Scholastic Intentions: Wellesley in 1938; P. G. in ’37. Ambition: Go on one of Beebe’s expeditions, and live to see the turn of the century. WARD ALLEN ALLRO To Ward, every knock is a boost. His outstand¬ ing qualities are stamina and steadfastness of char¬ acter. Ward is the lucky owner of an orderly and resourceful mind and these qualities are shown to an advantage in his scientific work, in which he is extremely proficient. Ward’s impromptu remarks in French have made him the darling (?) of the class. For confirmation of this, see Miss Mackedon. Re¬ gardless, Ward is sympathetic, trustworthy, and loyal to any trust confided in him. Born in South Royalton, Vermont, July 4, 1919. Activities: Cross Country, Gym Team, Science Club, French Club, Dramatic Society, Red Cross, Thrift Club, Year Book Advertising- Staff. Hobbies: Magic, Model Boat Building, Dissection. Scholastic Intentions: Tufts College and then to Medical School. Am ' bition: To become an expert surgeon. PIIYLLTS FRANCES ALLGR(JVE “PHILL,” Phyl is a new girl in our midst this year. She can say a lot in a few words, and is a rare package of shyness. To us, she is noted for a pleasing per¬ sonality, a willingness to oblige, and a winning smile. Phyl has high ambitions and if we know her, they will be carried out to the letter. Hobbies: Reading, Sewing and “I really have some dramatic ability.” Scholastic Intentions: Night School in Shorthand and Typing. Ambition: I would like to tour the United States. HALFORD HENDERSON AHR,LER “HAl ’ Hal fold is an ambitious young salesman, his main line of business being window-wash and neon signs. He’s not a shirker and always does his home¬ work, even if it is at dawn in chorus. In his spare time he plays the saxophone, but as far as that goes, his genius has been practically concealed from us. It must be his modesty! Born in Detroit, Michigan, December 24, 1919. Activities: Orchestra, Chorus, French Club, Gym Team, Swimming. Hobbies: Stamps, Leather Work, Driving. Scholastic Intentions: Military Prep School, and Harvard School of Business Administration. Ambition: Advertising Business. ET.LA JOAN AR: ISTR0NG Little imagination is needed to picture Ella as a brown-eyed sister of Pinochio. She can be unexpect- ingly witty, with a passion to be stuibbornly lazy. Art and Maine are her strongest outside attractions. Her drawings show promise of outdoing Petty. We shall always be curious to find out what would happen to Ella’s enviable figure if she really stayed on one of the ever-threatening diets. Born in Winchester, Mass., April 12, 1920. Activities: Class Hockey, Class Tennis, Class Bas¬ ketball, Chorus, Orchestra, Vaudeville Show ’34, ’37, French Club. Hobbies: Drawing, Soiling, Swimming, and Sleep¬ ing.

Check off, please: 6 feet, 3 inches; 4 digs of sarcasm; 7 puns of wit; a love of the sea, not to mention a susceptibility for brunettes; an over-dose of common sense and all the spirit you’ve got.—Signing off.” “Is that all. Lord?” “Good heavens, isn’t that enough?” Born in Winchester, Mass., March 27, 1920. Activities: Chorus, A. A., Intramural Basketball, Hockey, Traffic, Year Book Assistant Editor. Hobbies: Fishing, Loafing, Brunettes. Scholastic Intentions: Bates. Ambition: You bet. (J. IJAYMOXI) 15AXrK(M T, JK. “BAXXY” “SwinR-, baby, swing”, that’s George, folks, on the Leonard Field courts, swinging away, to use the vernacular, at the little white pill. To many of us, that seems unbelieveable, for “Bannie” seems to barely move around school when we see him, but he’s a “Tuf-ts” fellow all right. Born in Melrose, Mass., March 15, 1920. Activities: Tennis ’36, Class Basketball ’34, ’35, ’36. Hobbies: Tennis, Fishing. Scholastic Intentions: Tufts. Ambition: To be a surgeon. FKEDEKICK K. BATES “FRED” “Bates, the theorem! Have you learned Proposi¬ tion One, Book I?” 2:11 P. M. “Come on, let’s get out of this dump.” Changing the subject, Fred’s a staunch Red Sox rooter and he’s willing to bet that they’re good for the first division this year. How far is Concord, N. H. from here? Born in New Haven, Conn., July 19, 1919. Hobbies: Sports. Scholastic Intentions: Dartmouth. Ambition: Get somewhere. AELAX ERAXCJS BELEEW “BUD” Winchester High’s Class of ’37 mighty atom. Bud likes track and cross country, swimming and driving.

Activities: Cross Country ’35, Captain ’36. Hobbies: Fishing, Pool, Hockey, Swimming. Scholastic Intentions: Undecided. ROBERT B. BLACKLER, JR. “BOB” “BUNK” During the week “Bob” may be found hounding the eight-ball, but on the week-ends h-e goes skiing with the “spirits” at Plymouth, N. H. How much skiing is done by Bob is guessed by many, but known only by the spirits themselves. However, his better half resides in Baltimore, which, thanks to modern transportation, can be reached easily enough. Born in New York City, September 8, 1918. Scholastic Intentions: St. John’s College. Hobbies: Skiing, Tennis and Canoeing. Ambition: To get married after I finish high school. KATHAR1NE BLAN(T1AR1) “PETIE” Sunny hair and a sunny disposition make a de¬ lightful combination, especially in “Pete”. Come what may, “Pete” always manages to pass it off with that glorious giggle of hers which has endeared her to W. H. S. This merriness of hers is very con¬ tagious, and we understand that Bick and Eeggie are not altogether immune. Born in Winchester, Mass., June 29, 1919. Activities: French Club, Dramatic Society, Vaude¬ ville Show 36-37, Chairman of Advertising Board of Aberjona, Chorus. Hobbies: Dancing, Riding, Swimming, Skiing. Scholastic Intentions: Not definite. Ambition: To make a man look up to me. WALLACE BLANCHARD, JR. “BUD” Wallace is ve ry quiet, both in and out of school. He spends much of his spare time building boats and model airplanes. But still, h-e manages to average a movie a week, and reads the latest movie magazines, and knows all the stars (Mae West, Wallace?) Per¬ haps a budding star is in our midst. Born in Winchester, Mass., May 15, 1920. Activities: Science Club, Baseball. Hobbies: Model Making, Theatre. Scholastic Intentions: M. I. T. Ambition: To make a million dollars. MUK1P]L ELAINE BLO.MQUIST “MUNI” Hex sunny disposition added to an enthusiasm foi’ all activities makes her a very intei-esting per¬ son to know. She manages the tennis team and en¬ joys taking an active pai-t in many other sports. In her own quiet way she is one of the most popular gilds. Boim in New Britain, Conn., April 7, 1919. Activities: Class Ho ckey ’33 and ’34, Varsity Hockey ’34 and ’35, Tennis Manager ’36 Chorus, French Club, Junioi ' -Senior Class Play Committee, Vaudeville Show ’33. Hobbies: Sports, Music. Scholastic Intentions: Wheelock School. Ambition: To “maiTy” with love. AVINONA ROSE LOARDLEY “WINDY” Winona is the girl with the pleasing smile and laughing eyes. She craves swing music and modern day fiction, (especially love stories, we are in- fox ' med). We all have been attracted to and are aware of her pleasing personality; we wish her bon voyage in her life’s journey. Born in Winchester, Mass., April 24, 1919. Activities: Chorus. Hobbies: Dancing, Reading, Swing Music, Movies, Tennis. Scholastic Intentions: Undecided. Ambition: To be a singer and dancer in a great swing band like Jimmie Lunceford, or Duke Ellington. ARTHUR W. ROAVLER “HAI ' PY” “Happy” is an ardent member of the Winchester Boat Club, and his V-8 can usually be seen parked there, except when he is doing a bit of reconnoitei’- ing in Melrose or Arlington, which is a great deal of the time. The whole school will miss “Happy”, but after all, he can’t be hei’e foi’ever. He is by no means a stranger in the gym, the auditorium, nor the office, and he spends a lot of time in all tliree. Born in Chicago, Illinois, Apidl 21, 1918. Activities: Basketball ’32, ’33, ’34, ’35, ’36, ’37, Chor¬ us, Gym Team, Aid Club. Hobbies: Beautiful Gilds, Bowling, Sailing, Shell Racing, Dancing.

BKOAVX HAY” At noontimes, Mr. Albro is Ray’s favorite teacher; in study halls, the conference room is his goal. After school, well—and he plays the sax, too. One of the fur-biting Yankee wits has Ray, only one girl in the school being his equal. But yet, under¬ neath this visible veneer, the man has a heart of gold! Born in Winchester, July 3, 1919. Activities: Track ’34, Vaudeville ’35, ’36, ’37 Orches¬ tra ’34, ’35, Chorus ’36 and ’37, A. A., Intramural Basketball. Hobbies: Music, Dancing, Swimming, and the Clar¬ inet. Scholastic Intentions: Prep-School and Bowdoin. Ambition: To Benny Good-man. DOROTHY DRUXO “DOT” If she ever had to shout heartily or say some¬ thing fast she would be lost, for somehow her voice just doesn’t do things like that. The only contradic¬ tion to her complete femininity is her strong tennis game, with which she can take over many of the sex which she refuses to imitate, but which she in¬ evitably attracts. Sympathy and goodnaturedness radiate from her and make her the popular girl that she is. Born in Cambridge, Mass., August 19, 1920. Activities: Varsity Tennis ’35, ’36, ’37, Basketball ’36, ’37, J. S. Class Play ’36 and ’37, French, Ski Club, Vaudeville Show ’34, ’37, Class Sec¬ retary. ’34, Traffic Squad ’36 and ' 37, Class Prophet. Hobbies: Eating Grapefruit and Playing Tennis. Scholastic Intentions: Tech—Some Day. Ambition: To talk fast. DOROTHY VIRGIXIA BUCKLEY “DOT” This lassie is a pianist of no mean ability, and when “Dot” lets loose with her flying fingers, she catches the eye as well as the ear. Whether it is a typewriter or a piano keyboard she is pounding, she pounds it with gusto. Next time you see “Dot” notice her cheery smile and twinkling eyes, framed by those delicately arched eyebrows. She has a yen for Benny Goodman and his swing music, and we hear her ambition is to lead a band like Benny’s. Born in Lynn, Mass., November 13, 1919. Activities: A. A., Vaudeville Show, Chorus. Hobbies: Movies, Skating, Piano Playing. Scholastic Intentions: Undecided. Ambition: To lead an orchestra as good as Benny Goodman’s. P.ETTV ANN liUDI) “BETTE” Betty Ann is known by her laughing brown eyes and her tumbling waves of black hair. Some friends say she is dreamy, but to all outward ap¬ pearances, she seems quite the contrary. The only dream we know of is a dream which we hope will become a reality, that of singing over the radio. You may hear her golden voice coming through the air in the future. It’s a worthy ambition, Betty. Born in Lowell, Mass., November 4, 1920. Activities: Dramatic Society, French Club, A. A. Hobbies: Ping Pong, Clothes. Scholastic Intentions: Undecided. Ambition: Sing a jazz song with Jack Benny and his violin. ALINE VIKGINIA BURSLEY Although this golden-haired bit of femininity seems shy and quiet, there are times when she pours out a stream of interesting talk on the most unusual subject, her feelings often portrayed by tk-e quickly changing expressions that pass over her face. Such puzzled ones in History, Aline! She is a combina¬ tion of many types, funny, but always friendly. Don’t forget, Aline, the expression is “pleasingly plump.” Born in Melrose, Mass., January 5, 1920. Activities: Dramatic Society, A. A., French Club. Hobbies: Ping-Pong, Skiing. Scholastic Intentions: Colby Junior College. Ambition: Doctor’s secretary. FRED .MILLER CAMERON, JR. We don’t know what is behind those dark eyes, that serious face, we can’t even guess. It’s a con¬ glomeration of many things. Let’s look closer, is that the image of a runner, a Harvard graduate, a world-wanderer? Only time can tell concerning the latter two, and in fifteen years it will probably tell plenty. To some, Fred is an enigma, but to others he’s “tops”. Born in Lowell, Mass., December 29, 1920. Activities: Dramatic Society, Cross Country, Cum Laude, Track. Hobbies: Singing “I Love Life”. Scholastic Intentions: Alcatraz. Ambition: To sing low “C”. .AIARY CA: IILLA CAPONE Mary is the very spirit of good-naturedness Every morning she has a cheery greeting for her friends. She’s always ready to do anything, es¬ pecially if it’s a social function. She calls a good many of her friends by the nick name of “Cutie”, but we wonder if she really means it! She doesn’t want it noised about, but her own sobriquet is “Babe”. Born in Winchester, Mass., January 24, 1920. Activities: A. A., Chorus. Hobbies: Movies, Swing Music, Swimming. Scholastic Intentions: Undecided. Ambition: Take life easy. PAUL HENRY CAPONE “PECK” “Peck” takes a great deal of good-natured chaf¬ ing about his nose, but he manages to keep bis temper within bounds, with a few exceptions. We’i ' e not stating that Paul is addicted to mountain climb¬ ing, but he has been seen constantly toiling up one of the highest hills in town. Despite “Peck’s” some¬ what boisterous mannerisms, we pronounce him as “a bit all right.” Born in Winchester, Mass., July 26, 1917. Activities: Football ’36, Hockey ’35, ’36, Chorus ’32, ’33, A. A., Class Basketball ’37. Hobbies: Bowling, Football, Hockey. Scholastic Intentions: Prep School. Ambition: To graduate or be a professional football player. CLARA ELIZABETH CARLSON “BETTY” “Betty” is one of the hardest working and most conscientious girls in the Senior class. She is highlv esteemed in the eyes of her friends and her school¬ mates because of these admirable traits. She has the worthy ambition to be the perfect secretary, but also fosters the desire to teach a certain Tech boy the rudiments in the art of dancing. Born in Dorchester, Mass., July 27, 1919. Activities: Chorus, Cum Laude. Hobbies: Dancing, Skating, Music, Driving Hepzi- bah. Scholastic Intentions: Undecided. Ambition: To own a trailer and tour the U. S. with Carolyn, p:i)1tii ( r()lvx collixs “EDIE” During the icy months of the year, she does (juite a bit of skating with a certain warm friend of hers. “Edie” might be very properly termed as an all around “good sport”. She has an easy and cheery smile, and her h-ost of friends testify to this pleasing part of her makeup. Born in Cambridge, Mass., August 9, 1918. Activities: Cum Laude, Chorus. Hobbies: Skating, Dancing, Walking with Fred (Guess ?) Scholastic Intentions: Undecided. Ambition: To be a typist. ELVIRA [ILDRED COLUCCI “PATTY” “Patty” is a swell pal to everyone, and a real sport, as is evidenced when she has a hockey stick in her hands. A swell dancer, too, is “Patty,” es¬ pecially when she’s at the Rainbow Inn. Her am¬ bition is to get a good position as a secretary, and we predict that if ever the chance comes, she’ll be an asset to her employer. Born in Winchester, Mass., SeiDtember 18, 1919. Activities: Varsity Hockey ’35, Class Basketball ’34, ’35, Class Baseball ’34, ’35, A. A., Chorus, High¬ lights, Cum Laude. Hobbies: Swimming, Handkerchiefs, Dancing, Buy¬ ing Clothes. Scholastic Intentions: P. G. or Bryant and Stratton. Ambition: To be a private secretary. GEORGE EORLEY GOXKLIX “GEE-GEE” “CONK” George is a new comer to W. H. S., and he has certainly rung the bell during his short sojourn here. He seems like a quiet sort of fellow, but if you’d been present that day at the State House, you’d not hold this opinion. He takes great delight in “kidding” the underclassmen, especially the girls. A good drummer, and a good sport, George is a worthy representative of the Pine Tree State. Born in Elizabeth, New Jersey, August 20, 1916. Activities: A. A., Ski Club ’36 and ’37, Dramatic Club ’36 and ’37. Hobbies: Radio, Swimming, Rifle Shooting, Riding Horses, Going to Maine.

DAXLEL EDWARJ) COSS “SLICKER” Slicker has been in the limeligk-t ever since he entered high school. He has starred in football, baseball, and basketball, and also he is an adept participant in the arts of swimming and diving.

CIIRTSTTNE CRAVEN “CHRIS” Success is the result of anything undertaken by Chris from a dance and stage decorations to driv¬ ing the black Ford.

IDA MAE CUCOLO Her twinkling, dancing feet will carry her to fame; if she doesn’t die of indigestion first. Ida’s daily lunch consists of anything’ that is edible and plenty of it. Just curious—what’s the big attraction at Pinehurst, Ida? Is it the piano playing or just the janitor’s son ? Born in Winchester, Mass., July 5, 1919. Activities: A. A., Chorus, Vaudeville Show ’35, ’36, ’37, Class Basketball ’34, Cum Laude, Class Hockey ’34. Hobbies: Eating, Danci ng, Piano, Bowling, Movies, Collecting Boys’ Necktie Pins. Scholastic Intentions: Business School. Ambition: To be as good a dancer as Eleanor Powell. ELliKIDfJE G. DAVIS “K(3I KBERT” When “Eglebert” enters, he invariably makes his presence felt. His exits are equally dramatic; for instance, his walking out of Miss Mackedon’s room with a cigar in his mouth. His intelligence is astonishing both- consideiing and not considering his lack of application. He’s the lad who may be seen ringing Mr. Keeney’s doorbell at 11:59 P. M. the linal day of the ranking period, with his back work under his arm. But he comes through, and that’s what counts. Born in Cambridge, Mass., July 16, 1919. Activities: French Club, Traffic, Science Club, Dramatic Society, Interclass Basketball, Track. Hobbies: Dabbling in Chemistry, Women, Working Hard. Scholastic Intentions: Harvard Medical School. Ambition: To be able to kiss her without drooling. FRANK DeMTNICO “Better late than never” must be Frank’s motto. Whether it’s graduation, studies, or sports, he gets tirere sooner or later; and there are other examples too. “Stutz” likes the winter season, when hockey is in order, and he can be seen either at Long or at Winter Ponds. RepoiTs have it that he is not adverse to doing a little night skating also. Activities: Intramural Basketball, Baseball, Foot¬ ball. Hobbies: Bowling, Swimming, Hockey. Scholastic Intentions: Notre Dame. Ambition: To be a winner of the Indianapolis 500- mile automobile race. ROBERT LAWRENCE DONAGTIEY “lUESTY” “BROTHER” “Rusty” goes in for all things athletic in a great big way, featuring prominently in football, base¬ ball, and basketball. However, ’tis that “Rusty’s” particular love is baseball, and being a catcher, he picks the men off the bases as adeptly as he picked Jean. He also is a prominent member of the “Mil¬ lionaires,” Winchester’s contribution to minor- league baseball. Born in Winchester, Mass., December 29, 1918. Activities: Baseball ’35, ’36, Football ’36, Basketball ’35, ’36. Hobbies: All Sports. Scholastic Intentions: Aviation School. Ambition: To pilot a transport plane. FRANCES ANNE DONAHUE Frances is the girl well remembered in Mr. Albro’s Latin Class. The past tense is used because one day in the sight translation, a very gruesome passage was reached. The next day, when the pas¬ sage was repeated, Frances was missing; she bad left the class. But you mustn’t judge Frances by this. Before she left Malden, she was elected editor- in-chief of the school magazine, a coveted position. It might be added that Frances is still very loyal to Malden. Born in Malden, Mass., January 17, 1919. Ambition: Fashion, stage design. MARIE ADELAIDE DONAHUE Marie has not been very active, but we found that she would have been treasurer of her class if she had remained in Malden for her senior year. But to see Marie at her best, it is necessary to observe her playing basketball in the gym. She usually plays guard, and if you lay your hands on the ball, you must be the forward she isn’t guarding. We only wish we could have had her for all four years. Born in Malden, Mass., March 24, 1920. Ambition: Dietitian. JOHN HENRY DOWNS “J. HENRY” “J. Henry” has wielded the proberbial “big stick in high school affairs since his advent into this venerable institution. “Downce,” as J. Keeney will have it, is a familiar sight in the auditorium, corridors, conference room, and Manchester Field. It may seem foreign to relate that “J. Henry” has time for other interests, but time he has, and, girls, you should see him swing it. A worthy ambition for all members of the class of ’37 might be set forth in one phrase: “To catch up with J. Henry Downs.” Born in Arlington, Mass., November 12, 1919. Activities: Track ’36, Captain ’37, Mansfield Cup, Editor-in-chief of Aberjona, Class President ’33, President of Thrift Association, President of Red Cross ’36, Business Manager of High¬ lights. Hobbies: Dancing, Skiing, Hiking. Scholastic Intentions: Bowdoin. Ambition: The same as Dot Fitts’. GEORGE AT.BEKT DREWSOX “GEEOEE” “BUD” Being one of the boys, “Bud” toasts his tonsils in Newton unless Alcyone is on the loose. George is, no doubt, the best bowler in the Senior class, and is seldom “fish” for the “alley cats”. In spite of the fact that George fits with W. H. S. sub-debs, he enjoys traveling (from Conn, to Ohio). Please don’t ask “Bud” to fix you up with Aldine. It can’t be done; we know. Born in Cleveland, Ohio, December 16, 1917. Activities: Vaudeville Show ’37, Tennis Team ’37. Hobbies: Dancing, Tennis, Newton Night Life, Golf, Driving, Bowling. Scholastic Intentions: Lehigh via Bryant and Strat¬ ton. Ambition: To prove to my father that I can really work. BARBARA MARY EKERX “BABS” Did you see all that snow we had this last winter? Grand weather for ski clubs, wasn’t it? Babs was prominent among those hypothetically weeping and wailing and tearing their hair. And well she might, for she organized the girls’ ski club and saw it through to its sorrowful end. However, skiing is not her only job, and when the fur (or snow) does not fly, she is always ready to spring a. new and original idea at you, or to brandish a mean tennis racquet. Born in Cambridge, Mass., September 18, 1919. Activities: Varsity Tennis, Cum Laude, Organizer of Ski Club, Exchange Editor, Highlights. Hobbies: Cross-Stitch, Bicycling, Walking. Scholastic Intentions: Smith. Ambition: To be outstanding in some profession. JOHN ELLIOTT “JACKIE” We don’t know whether to have “Biffer” in this year book, or to let the Woburn year book take care of him, for he is a familiar figure in both Woburn and Winchester. “Jack” really has a pugnacious countenance, whence the nickname “Biffer”, but when he bursts into his chortle you perceive that the face is lying. “Jack” likes to stretch it a bit, but on better acquaintance you will find out that he’s a bit of all right. Born in Winchester, Mass., September 17, 1919. Activities: Class Basketball ’34, Red Cross, Intra- mui-al Hockey ’35. Hobbies: Collecting Necktie Pins, All Sports. Scholastic Intentions: Undecided.

DAVID WARREN EMMONS “EM” “DAVE” A man about school is “Em”, the greatest of all human cooks, especially on one of those Dux- bury excursions. “Em” loves basketball, and doesn’t fare so badly up around Dartmouth Street during the romantic season (from January to December). We’ll remember him through the ages for his fast and witty come backs. Will it be Sullivan Square or Park Street, “Emmy”? Born in Arlington, Mass., September 16, 1918.

ERTCSON “Carl” divides his time between Winchester, Lexington and Arlington, with Arlington getting the lion’s share of it. He also enjoys horseback riding, and is said to be a master at the art. Carl is of a quiet and serious nature, but we know he changes somewhat, when he is away from Winches¬ ter. Born in Roxbury, Mass., August 12, 1918. Activities: Intramural Basketball ’33-’34, Varsity Football ’34, ’36. Hobbies: Women, Outdoor Sports, Riding. Scholastic Intentions: Pennsylvania Military Col¬ lege. Ambition: Become an army pilot. LOKETTA ESTHER ERR I CO “NTCKIK” The old saying “Good things come in small packages”, might well apply to “Loretta”. Sh-e is an¬ other one of those with an ambition to be a private secretary. We predict that she will make an ex¬ cellent one, for she is a rapid and efficient worker. Loretta has the habit of going down town every Saturday night! We ’re just curious. Born in Winchester, Mass., September 5, 1918. Activities: Hockey, Baseball, Cum Laude, Chorus, Year Book Staff, Basketball. Hobbies: Dancing, Handkerchiefs, Pins, Movies, Roller Skating. Scholastic Intentions: None. Ambition: To be a secretary. ERNEST LEONARD FERULLO “ZBKE” “Zeke” is a nightly visitor, during the summer time, at Horn Pond; whether he is in quest of beauty or solitude, we have yet to ascertain. He is a roller skating enthusiast, and may be frequently seen at the Tech skating rink. A good hockey player, and a good sport, “Zeke” stands high in the estima¬ tion of his friends. Born in Woburn, Mass., May 28, 1920. Activities: Intramural Basketball ’33, Intramural Baseball ’34, Class Baseball ’35, Intramural Hockey ’36, Varsity Baseball ’36.

Dot certainly would fill the require¬ ments of being the class “whizziest,” foi’, besides getting a maximum of marks with a minimum of study and being an ever brightening friend, she is a flash at tennis, hockey, pool, vocalizing and piano playing, football rooting-, and “WHIZ” cracks. With her gold W. H. S. football as an inspiration. Dot will surely be a most successful Smith- gal. Born in Portland, Maine, July 1, 1919.

XUJAAM FRANCIS FITZGERALD “FTTZ ‘ ' DOC “Fitzy” has a tremendous appetite for all things of either a sporting or a culinary nature. We sus¬ pect that he spends more time on the sports section of the evening paper than on his homework. For evidence or proof of this, see Miss Palmer. “Fitzy” is a sports writer for the Highlights at the present time, and we pick him to fill the shoes of Grantland Rice, before long.

CIIAELOTTE : rAE GTLE You might think that Charlotte is shy, but you would get a surprize if you saw her in the role of a proctor in a boys’ school.

WALTER GLEASON “WART So far as we can discover, Walter is the only member of the senior class to set up his own bachelor quarters, during his high school career. In spite of the hardships of that state, he seems to have survived, smiling as he always does. Whether he always smiles, when he works on his radio is another matter, but when discussing it with Mr. Alley he seems to have a very amusing- time. Born in Winchester, Mass., March 28, 1920.

ELIZABETH MARY GLENDON “BETTY” Betty appears to be one of the shyest girls in school, but you should see her outside! She repre¬ sents a rare type in 1937—a quiet, modest, young lady with equal parts of sweetness and spirit. She likes sports and is one of the most faithful rooters that our team possesses.

A ch-arming and easy conversation¬ alist, a knockout on a dance floor, hockey field or in a sailboat, “B” should have a successful future.

AXXA ELIZABETH JEXXIXGS “Betty” Jenniiigs—they say that nice things come in small packages, but that doesn’t hold true with our “Betty.” Five feet, six inches, she is full of fun, pep, vim, and vigor. Dancing is right down her alley and it is not a back alley either, from some of that fancy stepping we ve seen her do in the vaudeville shows. “Betty” is one who believes in “Art for art’s sake”, and if she keeps on she’ll reach the top.

ROBERT JOHXSOX “COACH” Fi ' om his earliest infancy, “Bob” proved himself to be no problem for the vocational guidance spe¬ cialists. Even then, though it was only the kiddie car championship, he held the Malden racing title. Now he races in new Buicks up to New Hampshire, only to race back again, when he has finished skiing. A laugh is guaranteed for anyone who wants one, if he merely talks to Bob. His success is assured. Go to it. Bob! Born in Malden, Mass., July 15, 1918. Activities: Skiing, Golf, Ping Pong.

BETSY JAXE JOXES “SHORTY” We were the gainers and New Rochelle the losers, when Betsy blew into our midst last year. Her easy friendliness made her fit in so well that now we can’t imagine our class without her. She can’t sit still, when there’s a good band playing, and she doesn’t have to, for there’s always some¬ body to swing’ it with her. She wields a potent hockey stick, and likes to swim and skate. Good luck, Betsy; we know you can get whatever you go after. Born in Syracuse, New York, October 10, 1918.

AirnirR roiu rt killam “ZEBK” W’hat sane person can conjure up a picture of a well equipped laboratory without Robert there with his test tubes, microscope, and a half-dissected cats. Besides being one of ihe ablest scientists, he shows symptoms of being a financier, in that he seems to have quite a knack for filling the coffers of the Science Club. Robert’s tenaciousness and will-power will undoubtedly continue to overcome all obstacles he may encounter and earn for him a worthy and well-deserved position in the field of medicine.

Scholastic Intsntions: Tufts College, Medical School. .MARTHA KBrBALL “MAHMIE” Lovable, laughable “Marmie!” She is the one senior who can never be really serious, and just can’t help brightening up all the sports, plays and classes. Bar Harbor has that certain something which takes the glamourous feeling from Winches¬ ter—can it be only Aunt Hannies’ Shop? We can be safe in predicting that “Marmie,” as a nurse, will ;be the only medical remedy needed for any patient. Born in Cambridge, Mass., October 30, 1919.

Pleasant St. home.

If there is any problem to be solved, you can bet your bottom dollar that Ralph will come out with the answer. You might not think so, but when he gets going, he can spin a yarn almost as well as he can a rope, and that’s certainly saying a lot. Born in Chelsea, Mass., May 13, 1918.

JAMES FO VLER MURPHY “SPITIV “Murph” is the one and only “gas house boy.” We understand that he takes quite a beating from “Bob” and “Butch,” and we feel that only his utter good nature protects these two worthy gentlemen from that wrath of Erin. “Murph” enjoys driving his fathei-’s truck also, but we know where his pleasure and maybe his future vocation lies.

NANCY KOLINSON Do you remember those clever sketches on the program of the vaudeville show ? If you are in any of her classes you will know the only one who could have done them.

Should you choose to argue with her on the philosophy of life, you can be sure shre has some very definite ideas, and they’re not so bad either! We suspect that her fondness for New Hampshire is due not entirely to the mountain climbing. Born in Plymouth, N. H., March 8, 1919.

He is also quite adept at the costly art of bowling, but not (|uite adept enough yet to take on another “Red.” Though to be a banker is “Red’s” highest aspiration, we prophesize a high position in Hart Schaffner and Marx for him, for “mighty oaks from little acorns grow.” Born in South Boston, Mass., April 18, 1918.

KICIIAKJ) SEXTON “DICK” When the Norn Mother received an order for Sexton, R. M., she was determined to make this batch a good one. First she took two brimming cupfuls of good nature and mixed them well with brains. She added a dash of Robert Taylor per¬ sonality, and poured the mixture into a pan well buttered with wit. On a hot oven it was soon done to a smooth tan. And behold—today, the ideal senior. Born in Nashua, N. H., December 21, 1919. Activities: Tennis ’36, ’37; Vice-Pres. Dramatic So¬ ciety; Pres.

LUCIUS SMITH, JR. “LOU “SMITTY” Who’s that little fella bubbling over with en¬ thusiasm? Without looking at the picture you’ve guessed it.

Never having sampled one of her masterpieces of the kitchen, however, we are not able to review their superlative quality. But we have it on good au¬ thority that she flourishes a brisk dish towel.

We have “Pappy” Thornton as the father of the senior class. We poorly informed ones are dying to know why “Normie” wouldn’t sing the “Volga Boatman” at the Vaudeville show.

THOMAS ATDAN UNDEKWOOD “TOM” “IINDT “Tom” is a very quiet, solemn person who seems to be romantically inclined. He has his eyes on a certain sophomore, and, strangely enoug’h, she seems to like it.

(’aptain John Downs in his oAvn right and by the popnlar acclaim of the assembled crew got out his double barreled sextant and took careful dejiartnre on the old, familiar landmarks. AVe were bound over unknown seas, but it was “never look over the stern, mates.” Patrick Gardner, First Mate, broke out the “holystones” (cleaning bricks) and the slushing gear and all hands “turned to” to ])ut the “Winchester 1987” shipshape. Dorothy Bruno kept the score, and Norman Thornton counted the pieces of eight. And Avas it rough! But Ave soon greAv accn.stomed to that, and even learned to go up hand over hand on the ropes. The Skipper Avon renoAvn in the Fleet Dramatic Club—that takes some doing for a new hand. (Do yon remember the “Three Live Ghosts?”). Able Seamen Lucius Smith, John Lobingier, and Elbridge Davis caiwed jiencils out of the spritsail yard and used them to good advantage on the new school paper, “The Highlights.” Joe C’imina turned out to be a football player of great jiromise, Avbile AVard Albro, Fred Croto, Robert Lynch, John Downs, and Ralph Manning donned jAanties and ran from yard to yard.

But with many a fair Avind and bine Avater under the forefoot it was a good Amyage, and Ave made landfall with only a few sailors lost over the side. And then, what ho for a three months’ shore leave! SEfONi) Cruise Te)))per(ifnr(’: AA’ armer. Il()r())))ef( y Rising ])erce]Atibly.

Ability was neoded to dod e tlie flying sticks and balls as Barbara Hickey and X ' irginia and Doi-otliy Bruno led the hockey s([uad nj) and down the deck, around the hatchways and between the masts. ’Twas good prac¬ tice, though, foi ' the ship’s team led by “Dotty” won the Fleet chamjnonship. Xleanwhile, -Joe (’imina “came through’’ for those who liad been betting o7i him by siidving all rivals and winning the ])ositiou of X’arsity halfback on the Football team. Back aft on the ship, Khoda Elliott, (leorge Manning, and Ward Alhro, members of the Executive Ifoard of the Science (luh, set u]) their battery of microscoiies and began work on the momentous ipiestion of why the sea is wet. Ski])])er Smith himself found time to count the pennies collected by the Ked Cross. Several times a week wrestling matches were held: Pythagoras versus any of us who dared to tackle him. Or entertained by ' a groiqi of daring tars who, inspired by The Theorem of jierhaps we were that father of all “swing” songs, The ] Ian on the Flying Trajieze, ” jierformed amazing tricks high u}) in the rigging. Alas, theirs was an unapiireciative audience. When asked whether they did not consider the show better than a circus, the always rejilied, “Ah), Alo, A Thousand Times, No!” girls With the apjiearance of spring came that of baseball, in which Daniel (“Slicker”) Coss (our best all-around athlete), “Brother” Donaghey, and “Wee Willie” McDonald distinguished themselves. A ot to be outdone, the girls started a team of their own on which Julia Luongo and Barbara Hickey starred. Dorothy Bruno won the honor of playing on the Fleet tennis team, while Ken Gurney and Fred Croto continued the grand effort round and round the track. Once, around the first of April, the ship ran into a dead calm, during which that inevitable disease, spring fever, spread like wildfire through the crew. A breeze came up, however, which brought about cpuck recovery. We made ])ort with all sails set and banners flying. “Leave ahoy!” ’ITlIRI) C’ruise Tei)iperature: Warm. lUirometer: Still rising. Wind: Strong. With a “Ho, heave, ho” and an “all together, me hearties” we broke Ihe old anchor out of the mud, aiid s(piared away for anothei’ cruise, ' fbe good old shi]) seemed in s])lendid trim, and a brisk wind sent her along hand¬ somely. Befoi ' e the land was barely out of sight we could tell by the hum of the rigging that we were in for a blow, and we were right. An English bund- cane blew all the boatropes out of the sails, and nearly carried away the main mast, but we hung on by our ]R)etry notebooks—too scai-ed to let go—and rode out Hie gale. Stoians of French and S})anish origin, like the ])opular music, went “round and round,” and occasionally we ran into stenography sipialls; but all bauds turned out to help bail aud we ])ut the shi]) back on an even keid again. Martha Kimball rose from the ])osition of First iMate to that of Skipi)ei ' when Lucius Smith, the first skipper, left to join another shi]). “IMea” Xlasoii was Slii])’s Writer, and i fax Le Boyer the Su])])ly Offieer. Tliree of the four positions at the head of the Red Cross were filled by ineml)ers of our class: John Downs, Yilliam Smith, and Prances-Jane Hay¬ den. We also had much to do with running “The Highlights,’’ with Ruth Le Roy, the News Editor, assisted by Dot F itts; John Lobingier and William Fitzgerald, Sjiorts Editors; Barbara Ekern, Exchange Editor; and John Downs, Business IManager. But the one to whom the prize for varied ac¬ tivity must go is Barbara Hickey who was President of the Dramatic So¬ ciety, Secretary of the A. A., a basketball player, and also such a fine hockey ]dayer that she was elected to be the next year’s captain. “Slicker” Coss and James Harris were our twm most important contribu¬ tions to the football team, the former kicking most of the points after touch¬ downs. He also served as captain of the basketball team. Fred Croto, a cross-country star, raised the number of junior captains to two. The title of highest jumper was easily won by John Downs. Ken Gurney and AVard Albro frecpiently went aloft to display their gymnastic abilities. We were not a crew to believe in the “all work and no play” theory; we managed to cram as much fun as possible into each w ' eek. Weekends w ere spent playing that greatest of all friendship-breakers, the fascinating “Mo¬ nopoly.” We became thoroughly acquainted with the ins and out of real estate, as well as wuth the fine art of rent and tax evasion. Insull and Capone had nothing on us! Our two dramatic groups were also busy. Dot Bruno, James Nardin, Dick Sexton, and George Manning had parts in the Junior-Senior class play, “The Boomerang.” Later in the winter the Dramatic Society’s presentation of “The Rear Car” (wuth Joan Pullman, Helen Pentz, John Downs, Dick Sexton, and Ward Albro, the stars, all juniors) sent ns to our bunks, shiver¬ ing wuth fright. Will w’e ever forget the sound of that voice from nowdiere laughing in demonical glee as the lights went out, one by one, or the sight of Detective John Downs wound around the legs of the table searching for a clue ? AVe also contributed our full quota of performers to the annual A aude- ville Show. At last we again made onr harbor safely, after a stormy but not un¬ pleasant voyage “down tlie Trades.” Fourth Cruise Temperature: Balniju Barometer? (The darn thing broke). Wind: High, reaching gale velocity in some quarters! Tlie good old “ AA inehester 1937” weighed anchor on this, the last lap of its voyage, wuth all signs pointing tow’ard the best cruise yet. Cajitain Norman Thornton spun the wheel wuth a firm hand, while Lieutenant Lucius Smith stood by to relieve him at any time. Dorothy Fitts recorded all note¬ worthy events. But perhaps the hardest worked officer of all Avas David Emmons, wdio Avore out seAoral pairs of shoes pacing the quarterdeck, trying to think of a way to get ns sailors to pay our dues so he could “make ends meet. ’ ’ All hands Avere exceedingly active this cruise. Even those aaJio joined us for the first time, or avIio transferred from priA ' ate yachts soon “fell into the SAvim, ” as the saying goes. Before long wo showod our heels to the other ships. True, there were a few weeks wlieii we were all ruiiiiinf ' rather wild, due to a certain song which had recently become popular; but after it had been decided by common consent that the next person who said “Knock, knock” to us would have to walk the j)lank, the craze soon died out. We became sane, sound sailors again, furnishing little trouble for Commander Harris’ police force. The last mentioned officer also ])erformed nobly as President of the Ath¬ letic Association, with Barbara Hickey as his able right hand woman. The latter received the Wheeler Cip) at the Pall ' ISi)orts ]fan([uet, at the same time that John Downs was awarded the Mansfield Cu[). A trio of our boys deserve si)ecial credit, for they won letters on both football and basketball teams: “Brother” Donaghey, “Slicker” Coss, and “Libby” Gaudioso. Other football stars were Captain “Jim” Harris, Kenneth Leghorn, Joseph Phelan, James Moran and Richard McNeilly. The girls were not far behind. Two of them, Martha Kimball and Marjorie Stevenson, were on the varsity team for both hockey and basketball. Some other outstanding hockey players were Barbara Hickey, Dorothy Pitts, and Betsy Jones. Rnth Le Roy and Lydia Rogers heli)ed to “man the fighting to])” for the basketball team. Our tennis champs this year were Dorothy Bruno, Dick Sexton, and Ray¬ mond Bancroft. Bill Smith, Robert Donaghey, and Ralph Muri)hy held uj) the honor of their ship in the baseball games and boarded the enemy valiantly. Norman Thornton and David Emmons were President and Treasurer re¬ spectively of the Pleet’s largest organization, the Dramatic Society. Prances- Jane Hayden, and Helen Pentz, also officers of the club, took i)art in the Christmas play, “Why the Chimes Rang,” along with four other seniors. Pive of the eight roles in “Mamma’s Affair,” the Junior-Senior class i)la ’, were taken by the following members of our crew.- Dick Sexton, IMartha Kim¬ ball, James Nardin, Dorothy Bruno, and Margaret Heath. John Downs and Prances-Jane Hayden, as President and Secretary of the Thrift Association did their best to make Scotchmen out of us. Then the latter of the t wo turned about and joined with President Dick Sexton in making us part with our carefully hoarded pennies for the Red Cross. In¬ consistent, we call it. Needless to say, our Prom, with Prances-Jane Hayden the chairman of the hard-working committee, was the biggest and best of all time—])ast or future. As we were nearing the lighthouse on D. A. R. point, all hands were ])iped aft for an important announcement. The keepers of the tower had just this year ac(iuired a powerful searchlight which they were training on each shij) and its crew as they passed, their ])urpose being to focus attention on those qualities in our sailor-ettes which often receive but little recognition: leader¬ ship, patriotism, dependability and loyalty. The girls were lined up, and the spotlight Avent slowly down the row. Then, Avith the aid of the senior officei-s of the fleet, avIio had come aboard for this occasion, Ave chose Ruth Le Roy as most nearly possessing those admirable qualities. She attended the state I). A. R. CouA’cntion, meeting there representatives from many other fleets. “The Highlights” got otf to a rather late start, due to a comph ' te change in the organization; but it Avas Avorth Avaiting for, for Avhen it a])i)eared it was half again as large as that of the previous j ear. With Editor Ruth Ee Koy at the helm, and three of the four pages under senior direction, “The Highlights’’ came through with flying colors. The Science (dub, that organization of tlie “super colossal mentalities’’ of the fleet, was headed by (leorge Manning. Ward Albro wu-ote the minutes of the meetings, and Robert Killam kept after everyone for dues, (wdiich even the master minds sometimes forget to pay.) This year saw the aip)earance of two new clubs. The fir.st of these, the Erench Cdub, with la belle, charmante Mile. IMackedon as its pilot, was pro¬ nounced highly successful by all, and will i)robably become a permanent in¬ stitution. Marjorie Rush served as President, and Max LeRoyer guarded the money boxes. Under the leadership of Kenneth Leghorn and Barbara Ekern the Boys ' and Girls’ Ski Clubs came into being, with many enthusiastic members car¬ rying their skis and poles to and from school each week for the preliminary exercises. Alas, theirs was a disappointing season, for 1937 will always be remembered as the “winterless’’ year—no snow and very little ice. Whatta gyp! It is remarkable that not once during the four years’ voyage was there a threat of muting in the crew, ddiere’s an old saying that a man who is well-fed will never be discontented, and this must hold true in our case. Certainly no part of “Winchester 1937’’ holds a spot nearer to our hearts, than the galley and mess-hall. And now that June is here we must leave the good, old ship snug at the dock, a “sailor’s haven” for the future years, getting older as time goes on, but always good for a jolly cruise of reunion with stores of fine memories in her holds and with her timbers creaking with stories of the grand first cruises.

After a short interval, dinner was announced. Leo Schindler, the Ilushen famil} baidvor, with iMrs. Ilushen on his arm, led the way to the state dining i-oom and took his ])lace at the head of the table. On the hostess’s right was seated Halford Ambler, advertising manager for the breAvery, and on her left, Robert Walsh, commercial artist and IMr. Ambler’s partner. There Avere seA ' eral empty seats—but most of them soon filled,—] Ir. Wallace Blanchard, tin can “king”, Avith his Avife, the former Joan Pullman; James i Iur])hy, eminent financier, and the Brookline society matron, the former Barbara Hickey, arriving just in time for the fish Avhich were caught by Bud Armtrong and Jerry Shinnick. After a delicious dinner by Dr. Donahue, Dietician, the guests adjourned for a ])romenade through the grounds to the stable to visit their old friend, Edmund Olson, Avho because of an e]ndemic of colic among the horses had been unable to get aAvay for dinner. Dr. Doavus, A ' eterinarian from IMaine, on ]Arescription of Frances KSnyder, chemist, gave the horses a dose of C12 1122 Oil, cane sugar to you, curing them so that Iggy Olson might return to the house Avith the guests. Too much hey, hey, gave IMarniee Kimball and Dick Sexton hay- feAvr. Drs. Raymond Bancroft, Ward Albro, A. R. Killam, and Helen P.

Then, as the guests Avere getting rheumatic Avith the coming of the eA’cning dcAv, they made their Avay back to the house Avhere they discovered “Mea” iMason stretched out on a divan, lamenting the fact that its cushions Avere not Armstrong Wood Strong-Wood IMattresses. ] Irs. Ilushen led the Avay to the game room to Avork off the meal. Nine men,—Tom Kenton, AVink Kvickstrom, Ducky Ratio, Bud Stygles, Fitzy Fitz¬ gerald, Ralphie Mur])hy, Robert Or])in, Peck Gajione, and Fred Bates ])layed three innings of baseball against nine Avomen, —Pam Alitchell, Emily Thorne, SteAue Stevenson, Eva IlaAves, Alary Gapone, Betty Glendon, Honeydew Provost, Weezie Paine, and Alardi Rush. Pam Alitchell, her first time at bat, and in her usual manner, knocked out a home run. In the thiirl inning Avith Alarjorie Rush, Emily Thorne, and Betty Glendon on bases, Floi-ence Pynne, pinch hitter for Weezie Paine, drove in the runners Avith a home run. Needless to say, the Avonien Avith these Avinning ways, Avon by a score of 5 to 0. FoIloAving this, there Avas an exhibition of billiards by Slicker Goss and Battler Elliott, the latter Avinning. The music of the AIcNeilly-Gleason orchesti’a at this ])oint lured the guests into tlu ' ballroom for an hour’s entertainment. Lucius Smith, master of ceremon¬ ies, first ])resented a fashion shoAv. Soft lights, SAveet music, and seven sophisti¬ cated Avomen,—Ghristine Graven, Frances-Jane Hayden, Katherine Blanchard Lydia Koyers, ] Iarg-aret Pattee, Marjorie Holbrook, Dorothy Pitts,—modeling bd ' anees Donahue’s latest ereations. Pollowing this, the master of ceremonies introduced the night club entertainer,—Dorothy Buckley, and her all-girl orches- t]-a,—Barbara. Hill, Betty Ann Bndd, Doris Perry, Theresa Gillotte, I etty Carl¬ son, Phoda Elliott, Leona Leo,—who accompanied Ida Cncolo in a solo tap dance. Next there was a skit by two foreigners. They must have been foreigners, for no one could understand a word they said, because Dot Bruno, one of them, talked too ra])idly, and Jim Nardin, the other, too slowly. Then Barbara Moidton, with Ka3 ' Brown at the piano, gave a dramatic rendition of that old favorite, School Days and the sentimental ballad. Organ Grinder ’s Swing. Betty Jennings then presented her skillfully directed “After Office Hours Pallet,” which comprised twelve tajpung Tillie the Toilers,—Aline Bursley, Gert JMcNally, Obie O’Brien, Edie Collins, Anna Peterson, Rushie Ruslnvorth, Nickie Errico, Kittj Galello, Helen Hannon, Dutchie Goodnow, Libby O’Neil, Patty Colucci, and twelve men, ten business men and two lawyers, Fred Cam¬ eron, “Park Street” Emmons, Bueky Harris, Red Harkins, Bud Drewson, Sully Sullivan, Dick Marsters, Arnie Whittaker, Bob Bladder, Coach Johnson, Sweetheart IMoran, and Bill Smith. One of the highlights of the evening was a television broadcast arranged b} Supervisors Rose and Josephine Motollo, who demonstrated the new tele¬ vision ecpiipment of the Magic A oice Telephone and Telegraph Company, which Mrs. Hushen had just had installed. In this demonstration, the guests contactetl a small group of fellow alumni, who were assembled at Dublin, Ireland,—Dike O’Neil, Pish Sheehan, Shorty Jones, Margie Abbe, Goo Giuliani, and A1 Perkins, all ardent social workers in the British Isles. Unfortunately the connections were broken when the Aberjona Clipper, piloted by Brother Donaghey, Carl Erickson, and Skip Joyce, dropped the daily supply of eggs. Immediately after this interruption, a telegraph messenger, Allan Bellew, arrived with messages from our trailer-traveling tourists,—Ernest Perullo, Ruth LeRoy, Phyllis Allgrove, Charlotte Gile, and Joe Phelan, who were at various national parks. Continuing the program, Lucius Smith introduced the torch singer, Winona Boardley, who brought down the house. Then the four Barx Brothers, Peirce, LeRo mr, Howard, and the silent partner, Leghorn, provided comic relief. After this Betsy Higgins and the staff of her Haven For Homeless Children, Nancy Robinson, art director; Bill McDonald, English teacher; Mary Eleanor Speers, arithmetic; Barbara Ekern, penmanship; John Nowell, history; and George Manning, general science; closed the program with a rousing cheer for the generous Mrs. Hushen. Just then the telephone rang. The Motollos made a dash for it and Rose brought back the following message from our mountaineer friends: AVASHING- TON WINDY STOP SKIING SLICK STOP SORRY AYE AIISSED REUNION STOP SIGNED BENNY TODESCA RALPH AIANNING GINNIE PORE- AlAN CARLIE THOAIPSON VINCENT AIANZIE BUNNY POAVERS. The jirogram having come to an end, the guests followed Airs. Hushen to tli( ' dining room where they hastily filled up on pink lemonade and animal crackers. During this bit of refreshment, Tom Underwood rushed in with the amazing and exciting news that being unable to sell Roosevelt to AA inchester, he had just sold AVinchester to Roosevelt. And the price— 1 22.78. Pappy Thornton, with great dignity, adjourned the class of ’87 until the year 2000. The cars rolled away—Hushen Alanor was empty—and so to bed.

(presentation of (Slass ift oSJOCSo CTy ' EARLY one liundred years ago, Horace Mann, ])ossessing great fore- sigJit, said: “If ever there was a cause, if ever there can be a cause, woidhy to he ni)held by all of toil and sacrifice that the human heart can endnre, it is the cause of education. ’ ’ In these days of sit-down strikes. Supreme Court issues, foreign war-clouds and general world-wide confusion, there seems to me to be unusual significance in the lines which 1 have just quoted. This year our nation is celebrating the one hundredth anniversary of Horace Mann’s election to the position of State Director of Education in Massachusetts. In large part because of this man’s effort we, to-day, are able to enjoy the privileges of universal education. His ideals permeate the entire philosophy of democratic education as it is practiced in our country. In recognition of the great services of Horace Mann from which we all have benefited, the graduating class of 1937 has thought it fitting to present a portrait of this great American to the school. This portrait is a copy of the painting b} J. Harvey Young, which hangs in the hall of the State Teacliei ' s’ College, in Salem. It carries out remarkably well the richness and quality of a painting and is the nearest approach to free hand work that can be made over a photographic base. Our class hopes that this gift will serve as a permanent reminder to liigli school students of one who has been described as the “Father of the American Public School.” I now have the very great pleasure, as president of the grad¬ uating class, to present this portrait to the Winchester High School. Norman Thornton Acceptance of Glass ift CgllE students of the Winchester High School certainH appreciate the cnstom of the graduating class to present a gift on leaving the school. We, who are in the school now, can not forget the Class of 1937 but their influence should be carried on to later years. Inasmuch as Horace Ylann was an outstanding figure in the develop¬ ment of the Public School System in the United States and since this is the one hundredth anniversary of his election to the position of State Director of Education of the Public Schools of Massachusetts, it is most appropriate for the class of 1937 to present this excellent portrait to the future classes of the high school. They may be well assured that it shall be hung in an important position, to be looked up to by all who enter the school and to be ai)preciated both for the significance of the man and for the excellent workmanshi]) of the portrait. As the representative not only of the Junior Class but also of the entire undergraduate body, 1 wish to thank the class of 1937 for this beautiful gift.

The class of ’39 has been an excellent exani])le of the second part of the conglomeration, witli oc¬ casional and alarming leanings toward wisdom—of a sort. Luckily, the teachers saw to that. Some of the Aviser little So])li boys and girls not only i)aid a reasonable amount of attention to their studies, but also indulged in a few extra-curriculai- activities, probably not trusting themselves during idle hours. Such activities must have l)een devised by a fru.strated faculty, confronted with the problem of managing those pujAils bridging the ga}) between Freshman and Junior years. For those avIio find that physical exercise is fun as well as beneficial, the school is ha])py to i)resent sports which ixuige from ping-pong to football. Look over a few of our athletes and their records: Francis “Muscles” Murray sliOAved admiring fans just how a first-stringer slioidd ]day football. Chalk up one for the Sophomores. Doug Graham toys with the pigskin now and then, and also plays basket¬ ball in a manner the opposing teams don’t like. Grey Twombley and Eddie Kenney also put on shorts and throAV the basketball through the hoop. The Gym Team’s “JMuscle Men” act in the Vau-l)evil sIioav had Sophomore representation. But the girls haven’t been lax, either. Myrtle Goodhue, avIio wasn’t even on last year’s hockey squad, leaped to a first team position. And Mildred Ghirardini joined tlie cheer-leaders ' outfit to exercise loyal Winchester tonsils on the gridiron. Quite a goodly number of Sophomore girls have won basketball numerals. More poAver to the fair sex 1 Let us glance noAv at the more or less intellectual side of the curriculum. Among other zealous students, Barbara Hayden carried on the fine Avork of tlie Red Cross this year. IMargaret Hall Avas one of those ‘Gio talking—one step at a time” peo]de, to be brief, a lieutenant of the Traffic Squad. It is unnecessary to mention tlie large number of prosjieetive Walter Winchells; the school Avas OA errun with snooping Sojihomores, sleuthing for the Higldights’ columns. But one young gentleman is Avorthy of notice, he is Charles “Butch” Bacon, our dynamic sports reporter. But this category had better end right liere and uoav, Avith tlie fh’st names to enter my mind; for an accurate presentation of the names of all actiA’e Sophomores AA ' ouhl involve nearly the entire list of the second-year class. The main ])ur])ose has been to shoAv that the Sojilis luiA ' e done some things to make them deserve the title “Ilalf-Avise”. But the wisest tliiu tlie Ropliomores ever did was to elect Donald Gray as Pj-esideiit, and Jose])li Burton to fill the office of dce-Bresident. Both w(‘ri‘ al)ly assisted by Secretary Margaret IMcNally and Ti ' caisurer X’incent Endco. It certainly could not he called difficult to find exani})les of foolishness among these carefi ' ee stmhnits. Such a characteristic lui ' ks everywhei ' e among them. But one incident stands out in more than one Soi)honiore ' s mind. I don’t think that lad who translated “Elle liii remercia avee ses larmes” as “She thaidced him with her arms’’ instead of “She thanked him with her teal ' s ' ’ will ever forget the sensation he received at the time that his face resembled a tomato in color. Ty[)ical, of course, but by no means outstanding is this ex¬ ample. As a last remark, I wish to present a warning to the teachers who must undertake the problem of our education, and a reminder to that gallant martyr, .Mr. Butters, who will be forced, no doubt, to have the same students once more, in our -Junior year. But cheer uji, all of you; we will be one year older by that time, and may have learned a few things in the interim to calm us down. It may .seem rather imjiossible that such an unruly bunch could ever calm down, but the thrill of becoming high and mighty ipiper-classmen may jirove a steadying influence; and in an effort to prove worthy exanpiles to moi-e young pups who take the positions we vacate, we may concentrate fairly well on our studies.

Wadleiyli we fonnd Mr. Samuel Graves as skipper. Tlie class officers were : President . David Schneider Vice President . Louise Barr Secretary . Shirley Wood Treasurer . Peter Collins On that memorahle day, September 11, 1936, two hundred bewildered freshmen entered a school which had not been put to nse for several years. Such well-known phrases as “we who are about to die salnte yon” permeated the atniosi)here. The boys were soon to learn that the heating equipment was rather primitive, the teachers, rather fussy about the temperature. Residt: mnch valiant effort was expended in keeping the heating plant’s idio.syncrasies in check. The freshmen “played” a large part in the school orchestra. Ont of thirty- two members of this group, nine were freshmen, and if an n])per-classman can be expected to know sufficient mathematics, these figures ought to speak for them¬ selves. There were six fiddlers, one trumpeter, one clarinetist, and one pianist. Tony DeTeso and Peter Galnffo were the prond freshmen with football letters. The freshmen contributed generously to all the Red Cross projects. Though Room One was ten or twelve laps in the lead, all did their bit. Foods, playing cards, pencil stnbs, and stationery poured in from generous hands. The freshmen also did their .stuff in the Vaudeville show. When Richard Dana defied the law of gravity in his neck-risking .stnnts, there was many a gasp of awe and admiration from the volnble audience. “Kiki” Snllivan danced gracefnlly, adding mnch to the pleasure of the audience. Howard Chase con¬ tributed the .scintillating melodies of his trumpet, mnch to everyone’s enjoy¬ ment. The freshmen were not left ont in the Highlights, either. They had a whole page to themselves with Jean Drake as editor. Miss Bailey and INIiss Shea were the faculty supervisors. The interesting assembly which the freshmen pnt on was judged a sneeess. Thanks to Skipper Graves, the freshmen were kept in toneli with the ]iolitieal pnlse. His Thursday political discn.ssions, for the benefit of the an¬ cient history classes, will long be remembered by the class of ’40. We have had a good voyage and wish all fntnre classes good sailing on the S. S. Wadleigh. Jean Drake IMary Hill Joseph Becker Introducing Our Athletics Athletic Association Tlie A. A. started otf ' the year 1936-1937 with the first meetiiio- of tlie officers on Se])tember 17, when the personnel of the execntive l)oard was com- ])leted with the api)ointinent of Dorotliy Fitts and Lneins Smith as cliairnien of tlie social and publicity committees respectively. The main activity of the fall season was the fall sports dance held the day of the Lexington game and preceded by a red hot rally, led by Lneins Smith. Ken Leghorn iirodnced a startlingly nnnsnal rally before the Wohnni game. The season was closed snccessfnlly with an award assembly, and the baininet, at which the AVheeler and Alanstield Cups were awarded to Barbara Hickey and John Downs. The Springfield gym team visited ns again this year, as usual a financial and social success. The climax of the year was reached when the A au-devil Show was jire- sented on Alarch 19 with a profit of $225.00. There Avere two more aAvard assemblies in the year—one for the winter and one for the s])ring season. In the course of the year a constitutional change Avas made by Avhich a team may A ' ote to have its lett( r altered. AVe are glad 1o say that at last the neAV field can be used and Avill be the scene of next year ' s football games. P()S!sil)ilitics of a ski team, a golf t(‘am, and a boys’ iee lioekey team were tlioi ' oiigbly (liseussed and investigated, resnlting in the organization of a ski elnb; also, the outlook for a lioekey team was improved for future years. The fiseal year was brought to a close with the nomination of a new slate for next year’s officers. This year’s officers were: President . James Harris Vice-President . Barbara Hickey Secretary. Betty Kendrick Treasurer . Peter Sibley The A. A. wishes to extend its hearty thanks to its faculty advisors, iMiss Young and Hr.

Decidedly the underdog, AA ' inchester out])layed the “Headers’’ throughout the game, and a close decision changed our victoiy into a tie. AVinchester 6 - iVIarblehead 6. In the first league game Stoneham was whitewashed 19-0 by a well co¬ ordinated team. Stoneham held the edge in the o])ening period, thereafter the Red and Black dominated the play. Ficociello and Alurray shared the scoring honors. AA’ inchester 19 - Stoneham 0. Our next o[)ponent, Belmont, was badly beaten on theii- home grounds. Ficociello scored tAvice, and Captain Harris once. AVinchester 19 - Belmont 0. The next game was at Concord Avhere AVinchester ahvays has a hard tinu ' to score. Concoial’s stubborn defence Avas only broken once by a 59 yard off- tackle run bA ' Ficociello for the only score. AVinchester 6 - Concord 0.

On Thanksgiving Day the annual turkey struggle Avas ])layed on a field of mud. The Orange and Black capitalized on a last minute break to cop the game. AA ' oburn 6 - AA ' inchester 0. Throughout the season AA inchester played hard and smart football under tbe able direction of Coach AA ’endell I). Alansfield. Ed Bartlett managed the second team, Avhich Avon all but one of its games. This team made a remarkable sboAving, and they Avill mostly rejAresent the varsity in 1987. It may be said that Donald IIoAvard did his duty, and more, as manager. At the A. A. Bampiet after the season, Gerry Ficociello and Peter fSibley Avere elected Co-Ca])tains for the next fall.

Both tlie first and seeo7id teams under the capable leadership of Miss Yonnji ' , dis))layed ex¬ cellent team-work, stick-work, and, above all, sportsmanshij). After extensive practice, and eager for battle, they challenged other higii schools. Tlie outstanding work of the first team players, captained by Bai-bara Hickey, led them to many victories. Awhile each girl on the forAvard line niad(‘ lier sliare of goals, Dorothy Fitts was the high scorer. “Dot’’ made one-half of all the goals scored thronghont the season. The ]n ' edominating characteristics of the girls were their determination and fighting spirit. Tlie vivacious athletes themselves decided that Avhenever tlu ' y lost a game they wonld ])nnish themselves by wearing black stockings to school the following day. Conse(|nently, one day in the fall we saw eleven pairs of black stockings rnnning al)ont the school. Thns, yon see, this team only lost one ont of the nine games jdayed and this Avas to Melrose.

This year ends the high scliool career of many of onr fine i layers, includ¬ ing Riith LeRoy, iMartha Kimball, Alarjorie Stevenson, and Lydia Rogers. Onr coach, Aliss Vonng, made this statement, “Alarjorie Stevenson is perhaps o]ie of the most ontstanding guards that I have seen in all the schools we have ])layed.” Although this makes the success of onr next team seem a bit dn- bions, the Sophomores and Juniors, with some excellent players, give jironiise of npholding the prestige of AVinchester. The reci])ients of first team letters: r’ai)t. Loretta Gaffney, c.; IMartha Kimball, sc.; Gertiaule Aleserve, f.; Rnlh Leroy, f.; Alarjorie Stevenson, g.; Lydia Rogers, g.

I I ' I I ' I BOYS’ BASKETBALL TEAM Basketball W. 11. S. 11)37 Basketball Team was well balanced and coordinated. The team bad no individual star, and tlie success of tlie team is e(|nally sliared by each player because of slieei ' ])erseverance througliont the season. Because of this s])irit of determination, the team finished in a tie for second [)lace in the Middlesex Leagaie with Lexington High. Reading High was the nndefeated champion of the league. For the first time in four years AVinchester was the victor over its ancient rival, Woburn, in the final game of fhe season by fhe score of 21)-28 in a closely confesfed game. The Second Team displayed its capability by winning the league cham¬ pionship among the second teams, losing but one league game to the Reading Seconds. Aluch credit is dne to Loach Bartlett for guiding his team to the league chami)ionship for the second siu ' cessive year. The leading scorers, and lettermen of the varsity were: (hiptain Libonio (laudioso, 80 ])oints; Daniel Loss, 56; Junnie Donaghey, 44; Lai)tain-elect Richard Hakanson, 35; and Robert Donaghey, 21).

As the season rolled along the team eontinned to imjn ' ove in all de])artnients, especially the ])itching. C’arl dohn- son. ace south])aw was the most consistent pitcher, comj leting many full in a relief roll in a number of games and acting games. (’a])tain Donaghey continued his jiowerful batting as a year ago, driving in many runs. Anthony DeTeso, a freshman, filled in well at shortsho]), after dohn Faidey was injured, and proved to be one of the heaviest hitters on the team. The first string lineuji was (’a])t. Robert Donaghey, stni-dy catchei’; Bill Smith, classy tielding first sacker; Eddie Kenney, lead-off man, second base; “Piggy” DeTeso, shorfsfo]); “Ducky” Kallo, half-i)inf of dyuamife, aud doc Phelan shared fhe honoi-s af fhird base. Ralph ]Mur])hy, all-round ])layer, (dement Bairstow, rangy tly catcher, and “dunnie” Donaghey, smaid bitter, formed the outfield. The ])ifching staff consisted of Carl dohnson, crafty southpaw; Thomas Kenton, curve ball artist; Richard IMcNeilly, s])eed king; David “dni)iter” Harris, and Robert Farrell, new sensation who proni- i.ses to be a future strike-out king. Richard Ilakanson, hoop stai ' , managed the team in a vei-y .satisfactory manner.

Tlie team’s success Avas un(iuestional)ly due to the excellent coaching by Thomas Alajmard, who is the best track coach that AVin- cliester has had in many years. Under his guidance Ca])tain John Downs was a consistent ])oint gatherer in the high jump. Bob Gardner became one of the best shot jAutters in high school ranks, Elbridge Davis, in his first year of track, develo}ied into a very fine miler, James Aloi-an i)laced consistently in the broad jump, and the dashes; and C’harles Reeves continued to be one of the fastest sjndntmen representing AA inchester in a long time.

Pi‘ances-Jane Hayden Tile Dramatic Society this year, altliong ' h its insjiiration and gniding light, Hiss Bailey, and all the freshmen have been sejiarated from the rest of the high school, has claimed as many members as ever before, 155. The first jiroject attempted by the society was the delightful Christmas ]ilay, “Why the Chimes Bang”. It was the first serious C ' hristmas pageant given for several years, but the res])onse was very gratifying to all those who took pai-t. The cast included members from all grades. Since i liss Bailey fonnd it increasingly difficnlt to coach from her position in the Wadleigh, 51 r. 51aynard, a new-comer this year, has undertaken to jirovide the amazing amount of new talent with the opportunity to take ])art in short jilays. For the first of these, “Caleb Stone ' s Death Watch”, (12 applicants turned out and almost the entire cast was finally made up of people who had never iieen on the high school stage before. The play was a great success and rehearsals for a second one were well under way, when 51r. 5Iaynard’s sudden illness made it nece.ssary to stop them. 51iss Bailey also ])roduced an all-freshmen ])lay “The Trial of Jimmy Slang”. It showed that the school has much to look forward to from a class whose members are such j)romising actors, actresses, and stage hands. As this goes to ])ress ])lans are being made for the a’iinual society party. he 3 ighlighis yN tlie fall of 1986, a complete reorganization of the Higlilights staff and pub¬ lication occurred. i Ir. Keeney became general sn]iervisor of the paper, with Mr. Stevens, INlr. Maynard, Miss Bailey and l Iiss Sliea, and ] Ir. Hayward having charge of the news ]iage, the editorial ]mge, the newly-created freshman page, and the sport ])age respectively. Under this facnlty sni)ervision, ])age staffs were organized. Bnth LeRoy became news editor, ] Iarjorie Rush, editorial editor, Jean Drake, fresliman editor, and AVilliam Fitzgerald, sports editor. For business manager, Francis Sullivan was chosen, with Bradford Darling advertising manager, and IMiss Bennett, facnlty supervisor. Contrary to the custom of former years, the Highlights was published bi¬ weekly with ten issues a year, duiung the school term, except during vacation Aveeks. Also, the size of the ]Aaper Avas made considerably larger, and the price raised to ten cents an issue to insure snbscri]:)tion buying. AVith the coo])eration of members of the student body, efforts Avere made to satisfy the desires of the school as to the type of ])ublication to be edited. A great amount of Avork, a lot of Avhich did not appear on the surface, has been acconpAlished by these staff members, who have ever stre.ssed the idea of “think¬ ing of the reader’’ Avhen contributing to an issue.

At the second meeting the constitution was adopted and the following officers elected : President . IMarjorie Rush, ’37 Adee-President . Bradford Darling, ’38 Secretary . Eleanor Jenkins, ’38 Treasurer . Max LeRoyer, ’37 The next meeting on October 29 was devoted to singing and playing games in French. In addition IMargaret Carroll, ’38, gave a rei)ort on the Statue of Eiberty. At the “reunion” of November, i Iiss Mackedon conducted a sightseeing tour with slides of Paris and of all France. Ward Albro proved invaluable as the projection-machine operator. Then the Christmas party—with eats! But before the hungry lines formed •—and attempted without success to re-form!—the pu])ils of the French II class presented “Le Bazar Parisien” with Eleanor Greene, giving an excellent per¬ formance. George Manning doubled for Pere Noel and the gifts were expensive and in some cases, unexpected. Due to the large number of members, it was thought advisable to divide the club into two groups. In January the third year .students met, while the second year meeting was held in March. Both of these meetings consisted of French games of various kinds. There were no meetings in February and April. In INIay, the month of Joan of Arc, plays written and produced by members of the French III classes were presented, together Avith speeial reports on Joan of Arc. The last meeting of the year Avas given oauu- to the election of officers. After the balloting, refreshments Avere enjoyed.

Tlie girls’ club, headed by Darhara Ekern and advised by IMiss Hall, had an enrollment of 53 members. IMi-. Lunt and IMr. Proctor gave lessons for which each member ])aid one dollar. However Old Man Winter failed to knock at our doors, and after several “dry lessons at Manchester Field, the season was sadly closed and a rebate was received by all members. The boys’ club started early in December with voluntary conditioning ex¬ ercises to prepare for the season which was exjiected to arrive. IMeets with Stoneham, Arlington, Heading, IMelrose, Newton, and Lexington were planned, but without snow, W. II. S. was unable to prove itself a leader in skiing. The boys’ club was headed by an executive committee of three: Kenneth I eg- horn, chairman; Peter Sibley, and Pen Schneider; IMr. Stevens acted as faculty advisor. The ])oys’ club pi-esented the film “IModern Ski Techni([ue” to the ])u])lic in February. Although this season was unsuccessful because of the weather, it served as a good start towai ' ds the forming of future clubs and competing teams. he thrift Association ‘ ' Rank day today,” so read the l)lne placards displayed so eonspicnonsly in each and every lionie room on each successive Tuesday of tlie school year.

Along with the tuberculosis movie there was an added attraction, a nni-se, who explained the ])icture and so making it the more meaningful. Perha])S the most intei-esting exploration of the club was a trij) to tlie Navy Yard foundry where huge red hot castings and molds made of sand W( ' re seen, after which a pleasant half hour was spent roaming over Old Ironsides. faculty (Questionnaire III tlie early .s])rinj ' the 1‘aeulty were “exposed’ ' , as Air. Kenney would say, to a s( ries of (piestions about theniselves. Almost without exeejition the entire ' (|uestionnaire was filled out aud many humorous answers were jiassed in. We wish it were possible to print each epies- tionnaire just as it was filled out, hut sjiaee is limited. Therefore, it has been nee ‘ssary to ' eneralize the ansAvers and they are as folloAVs: What coUeyc did you attend. lloston lTni mrsity seems to be the most pojiular amon i ' our teaehers. ( ' olby ami Columbia run a cdose second. IIoav- (ver, there are many other colleges Avnicii ha ' e been graced by our faculty. Some of these aie: vesieyau Cniversity, Ifates, Amherst, Radcliffe, Springfield (’ollege. Connect.cut College for Wemen, New York University, Aliddlebury S])anish School and Urench School, and many others for almost everyone of th(‘ faculty has attended more than one college. What degrees have yoiif Ours is a most learned faculty with their many and varying degrees. A.U., U.S., iVi.A., and S.B. are the most coveted but there ai’e others siicli as B.P.E., B.U.A., UL.B. and Ph.l). What are you ptauniny to do this suiuuierf It is easy to see that our faculty is going to enjoy itself this summer. For instance, Air. Albro is going to “motor in Vermont as l ong as tbe money holds out’’, another just “loaf”, “business for myself’’, and Air. Hayward “rencAV my youth.’’ Two teachers plan to spend the summer months in Alaine, and three in Europe, Miss Alackedon, Air. Good, and Aliss Proctor. The rest seem to be planning more studying. ( How could they?) What are your hohhiesf To say the least Ave have a ver.satile faculty in¬ structing us. A widely varied list of hobbies Avas on each one’s pai)er. Reading seems to be universal with knitting a popular recreation among the ladies. Golf is very popular Avith almost eveiyone. Aliss Alackedon and Air. Cotton listed “talking’’. At least that doesn’t require much e([uipnient. Whoui do you- consider to be the best dressed teachers among the wonien Men? At this point the writing was very faint or not at all. Some men said “refuse to commit myself.’’ IIoAvever, Aliss Bailey, Aliss Proctor, Air. Bartlett, Air. Stevens, and Air. Grindle Avere named. Oh, yes. Dan got several votes. Don’t knoAV but Avhat he is the most sensibly dressed from a scientific point of vieAv!! What is your favorite color? Here, everyone broke doAvn and confessed. Red, blue, and green are the favorites. But as Air. Alley expressed it “Being color blind makes it difficult.” What is your pet annoyance in study ludl and classroom ? Undergraduates, here is your chance to reform. AVatch out for these faults: talking, .smiles that Avon’t come off, cheAving gum. Girls, according to Air. Albro (that is sort of a (disadvantage to .some of us) show-offs, noisy people. One very AA ' itty person Avrote the folloAving—“AVhat is your ja ' t annoyance in study hall or classroom— both!’’ Four or fiA ' e congenial souls oA ned that they had no pet annoyances, or as Air. Alley said, “AA’hy not enjoy life?” Whaf outdoor sports, if anij, do yon have a hankering for. Here apjain tak( ' .s the lead. S viininiii ; ' , baseball, biej cliiifi ' , tennis, lioi ' sebaek riding ' , ( ' limbin ' ' mountains and steam yaebting ' were all listed. What is your favorite indoor sport Siieb an energetic famdty! Eveiyone lias sometbing to keej) him busy iii bis leisure (f) hours. Reading (if it is a sport), iiing l ong ' , pitching cards in a bat, watching the goldfish, talking, basketball, sleeiiing, smoking a pi])e, cards, games, and one domestically minded [irof put down cooking. Ob, we forgot—IMiss Mackedon’s cats. What is your favorite dish in the high school cafeteria nienusf It’s easy to see that Welsh rarebit is tu])s with our faculty. Fruit salad and corn chowder are next in line. Several teachers jnit down “lunch at home,” but the prize an¬ swers were “mock tuna fish” for Mr. Hayward, and “the ones with the flowers on them” for J Ir. Alley. What time of the school day do you like hestF There was no doubt about the answer to this one. Lunch period ! Although d.OO P. M., or the 8th period, as i Ir. Hayward calls it, is pretty well received by faculty and students alike. Who, in your opinion, is the hest-natured i)i the facultyf The veiy best answer given, in our opinion, was “Have you ever seen Mr. Grindle cross?” Although we could say that about almost ever 3 ' one, Mr. Grindle certainly leads. Do you ever, consciously or loiconsciously, put on your sweetest smile and best behavior whenever a- visitor, such as Mr. ( uitut, comes to classf Some of the answers. “How do 1 know? 1 don’t know how sweet nyv smile is other times.” “What do 3 on do when .von have compaii} ?” “If nneonscionsl.y, how shonld 1 know?” “M.y behavior is alwa.ys above reproach, inv smile ever the sweetest.” (Miss Mackedon). What part of the school year do you like best? Spring seems to be the favorite with all. But as one said, “I’m alwa.vs veiy happ.v on the 15th and 30th of each month”—(pay da. 3 ). If you had ff choice of any occupation, what one would, you prefer? Miss iMaekedon wrote: “I’d like to be able to write; I do like teaching, although, the.v sa}’ being married has its points.” Others mentioned were: librarian, manager of a hotel, foreign dii)lomatie work, and a doctor. Mrs. Stac.y wrote “Oh, linin’’ and Mr. Ha}wvard—“testing the Townsend Plan for different communities.” Would you like to have a radio in the school? IMr. Albro—“No! No! No! No!” IMr. Ila.vwartl—“No, 1 have two at home.” Mr. Good—“One in each room.” Miss Peabodj would like one “onlv if it’s in a sound-proof room.” iMiss Hall sa.vs, “Yes, but I don’t know when I’d have time to listen to it.” What radio program appeals to you )nost? Boake Carter has a great man.v fans in the Winchestei- High School facnlt y Rnd.y ’allee, Jack Benn.v, Fred Allen, are all favorites. iMr. Ha.vward comes through again with the right siiirit when he sa ’s “The next one.” J)o you like the so-called “Swing Music”? The answer was almost a unanimous . 3 ’es—but with conditions. As Mi.ss Knowlton saj ' s “all of it ex- ce])t when the trombone “wails.” ] Ir. Alley had us stum]ied when he asked “What is it?” Mr. Graves sa ’s, “Do mu call that music?” and iMr. Hayward— I’m crazj to listen to it.” We would like to ex]n-ess onr appreciation to the facult.v for being such good S])orts about answering this questionnaire. We hope there have been no hard feelings and that liny have not been inconvenienced b.v this. In he Baby (pictures Reading from left to right, from top to bottom. BABY PICTURES NO.
