Wmmm Wimm hH(M Jw®}M °ni-. u V 1 ) tlo.CAX-ktS; bcrr WADE L. GRINDLE Principal Our Instructors Wade L. Grindle. Few schools can have a more capable, understand¬ ing, and active principal than has W. II. 8. Besides guilding our school to high scholastic fame, he is an enthusiastic worker in many civic functions. lie is President of the Middlesex County Teachers’ Association, one of the larg¬ est teachers’ organizations in the country. Vice-president of the Massachusetts High School Principals’ Association. lie served for two years in France in the A. E. F. and was wounded in action at Chateau Thierry. He now holds the commission of Major in the Officers Reserve Corps in the United States Army. Major Grindle numbers among his hobbies; golf, mountain-climbing, fishing, and in fact is a devotee of outdoor life in general. It is a saying that no school can be better than its leaders, and one of the reasons for WIIS’s success is its principal. Bertram Albro. Mr. Albro is one of our faculty who has had much travel in his past, and Winchester High is lucky to be his landing place. Besides being a very popular and capable teacher in the Latin department which lie heads, he is equally popular in his other activities around the school. His attention-provoking remarks in his classes, which liven up an otherwise dead subject, will be long remembered by all who have studied under him. L)r. Otis E. Alley. -lust as America is the melting pot of nations, so our Cliem Lab is the melting pot of ideas. There, one is free to speak his mind, to have his own theories, to make his own investigations. But what would any experimental laboratory be without an expert? We have ours in Dr. Alley, who can inform us about anything from the extraction of a tooth to the tlier- modynamical law of heterogeneous solutions. He has a keen sense of humor, the ability to keep his students interested for hours at a time and is a true friend of all of us. Frances G. Allison. Miss Allison is the petite, or perhaps we should say pequinna, member of the faculty. She has traveled extensively in Spain, and her charming stories are the delight of her Spanish classes. She takes real interest in all of her pupils and this is much appreciated, in turn, by all of them. She is well-known to all of us as a helpful adviser and a true friend. In thanks for all she has done for us, we say, “Muchas gracias un millon”. Marion Bailey. Miss Bailey will always be remembered by our class as the lovely and conscientious director of the Dramatic Society. Her enthusiasm and intense interest have kept it one of the thriving activities of the school. When it comes to energy she is second only to Mr. Good. Who but she could travel all the way from Egypt (Mass.) every morning, teach six classes of Freshmen, and then drive all the way home each evening? We know the answer —nobody. A person of undeniable charm, she is one whom Winchester High School is proud to have as a member of its faculty. Edward Bartlett. Introducting that beaming, bashful, boyishly buxom beauty from Beverly—the ambition of all the girls. “Bart” not only knows his bookkeeping, but he also knows his sports, for he coaches a championship basketball team in “home-town” Beverly. It’s been said that lie has a great interest in Nebraska—looking for Indians, so be says—but we ' ve heard other¬ wise. His ambition is to become an athletic director in some university. With bis personality we know he will go far. Ruth Bennett. From Maine we have Miss Bennett, who teaches type¬ writing. She has taught at Chandler Secretarial School and Chandler’s loss is Winchester’s gain. Many a successful typist of the future will have Miss Bennett’s instruction to thank for her success. The ■Commercial Department has reason to be grateful for Miss Bennett’s work and no one who has taken her course will ever forget her smile and pretty blush. Helen Bronson. Probably the least appreciated of all the teachers in the school is Miss Bronson. As head of the Commercial Department, she has a very difficult position to fill. For hers is the responsibility of placing our graduates in positions in the business world. Hers is the responsibility of see¬ ing to it that these students have had enough office practice and enough train¬ ing in secretarial work to be efficient workers in the world of business. How¬ ever, she takes all this in stride and, still finds time to be one of the pleasantest and well-like members of our school faculty. Arthur E. Butters. Mr. Butters is the eminent mathematician of our faculty who at the slightest notice, we’d be willing to wager, could recite any and every proposition in the “beloved” geometry book without batting an eyelash. His afternoons are spent in straightening out puzzling originals for baffled sophomores and, although his hobby is golf, he is a loyal follower of all student athletics. With Mrs. Stacy he is faculty advisor for the Prom and his winning personality has done much toward making the latter a success each year. An all-round good fellow—that’s Mr. Butters. Gertrude Carmichael. What Miss Parker is to the Seniors, Miss Car¬ michael is to the Freshmen. Who could visualizze a Freshman class without the guiding influence of Miss Carmichael? We know we couldn’t. She has a sense of humor hard to equal and a personality that has won for her the admi¬ ration of all of her many friends. Estelle Coffin. Mrs. Coffin is that small, quiet lady with the lovely skin and laughing brown eyes. As a Freshman teacher, to her goes the work of preparing for the “Greenies” a suitable background for their later high school work. And this she does unusually well. For she has all the qualities needed by an excellent teacher—patience, sincerity, perseverance and sympathy. What more can be said? Dana M. Cotton. Mr. Cotton is the man whose list of friendships includes the entire student body, whose classes are most interesting, whose leadership of the Traffic Squad is most efficient, whose fairness is unexcelled. His varied interests make for his remarkable and notorious ability to discuss any question. The Maine woods lose an excellent fisherman and hunter, when Mr. Cotton is teaching- in the WHS. A keen sense of humor and a ready smile—these are characteristic of the Mr. Cotton whom Ave all know and like so well. Vinal Good. “Tie’s Taylor, Gable, and Power all rolled into one,” raA T e the Freshmen girls. “Aw nuts!” say the boys, “lie’s just one swell fellow.” So Ave gather that lie’s slightly terrific. Where Mr. Good gets all his energy we don’t know. All Ave do knoAV is that he spends the early part of the day getting over the mystery of Algebra to bewildered Freshmen and then tears down to the held to devote his time to grooming the young ’uns in the methods of blocking and tackling. As to his night life—that remains a deep, but not too dark, secret—not after you’ve caught a glimpse of that smile! Samuel M. Graves. A magnetic personality plus a decided passion for politics Avith a keen sense of humor thrown in for good measure could equal no one but Mr. Graves. Everyone has his Aveakness and we hear, from a very reliable source, that our political plutocrat’s (don’t be worried—the latter is only for the sake of euphony) is his little daughter, Virginia. Can’t you just see the Avay he stoops to “be” conquered? Well—to come back to school. Through, a fascinating and picturesque use of slang, he can make a Mussolini out of Julius Caesar and Dietrich out of Cleopatra. Who would doubt his popularity ? Verne Hall. Small but brilliant, sweet but firm—these adjectives we think describe Miss Hall to a T. Although this is only her second year with us, already she has won her way into the hearts of both students and teachers. Probably the outstanding reasons for this are her glowing personality and Avillingness to aid in any enterprise. Wherever advice is needed, Miss Hall is ahvays ready to help you. She is a great reader, a bicycling enthusiast extra¬ ordinary, and an all-round good sport. Raymond V. Hayward. No one would ever dream that the trim figure that lightly sAvings through the halls, humming a tune under his breath, sup¬ ports the greater half of the burden of the school’s activities on his seemingly carefree shoulders. The casual observer labels him: “Just another English teacher.” Ilis pupils think of him in terms of a soft, strangely pleasing voice, and a rare New England humor. The bright-eyed “savants” of the school know him to be the little man behind the big Vau-Devil Show, the brain trust of the A. A., the ping-pong ace, the billards shark, the generalissimo of the neAv Handbook staff, and a thoroughly good scout—“the one, the only, the original ‘ ‘ Professor Hayward! ’ ’ Joan Iacona. Friendliness, capability and industry—all identify but one person, Miss Iacona, knoAvn to some of us as simply Joan. Not so long ago she charmed us at the Vaudeville Shows with her singing. Now, however, we meet her in a different setting-—the office. There, her diligence and sympathetic understanding have won for her the respect of the whole school. Robert M. Keeney. With astounding swiftness his fist comes down on the shoulder of some poor boy sitting near him. With a steady rhythmic beat- on the martyr’s shoulder, J . Keeney clearly and “forcibly” drives home his point. Fear not, those of you who read this paragraph, Mr. Keeney is not the monster so- far portrayed but really just a good-natured English teacher avIio loves his pipe. With equal alacrity he can give out immense assignments, quote lines from Shakespeare, and tell you the day’s baseball scores. His favorite pastime, however, seems to be getting people “on a spot.’ Krr—mp, Julius Keeney. Inez Keller. Miss Keller is that able teacher who instructs Winchester High School students in Arts and (’rafts. Of all courses this is probably the most well-liked in the school. In it such articles as hand-tooled leather purses, dainty buttons, beautiful plaques, and gayly painted boxes are fashioned by the students which they may either keep for themselves or use as gifts. The classes are very informal and it is largely because of Miss Keller ' s pleasing personality that they have become so popular. IIazel Kingsley. Known only to the more talented students in the school, our artists, Miss Kingsley is the very competent young woman who presides not only over our art room but over all the art classes in the Winchester schools as well. Although we don’t get a chance to see her actually painting, we understand she is especially proficient in the field of water color. Her patient and helpful guidance is most beneficial to her aspiring pupils. Ethel Knowlton. The cheeriest, the happiest, the gayest teacher in the school—that’s Miss Knowlton. Her young French aspirants not only overflow with knowledge but bubble over with laughter. Her classes are the pleasant¬ est, the most delightful we know of. And all because of that little lady with the flashing smile and laughing eyes. However, Miss Knowlton has her serious side, too, and shows her ability in the efficient manner in wh ich she manages the sale of tickets for the Class Play and the Vaudeville Show. W. II. S. couldn’t be without her. George Lauer. Mr. Lauer came to our school last fall with the very hard task ahead of him of taking the place of Mr. Mansfield, our very popular coach, who left to coach at Springfield College. Mr. Lauer has succeeded in this task in a way that would be expected by anyone who knows him. The football and basketball teams have gone to glory under his popular yet firm guidance. Carrying out with great success the school ' s athletic customs as well as starting many of his own, he has come to be a part of our school life, and a very popular member of our faculty. Amy Lawson. “Please may we go to 30, Miss Lawson?” “Oh dear, Miss Lawson, I can’t open my locker!” “May we have the locker-room key?” “Could you please tell me—?” So the steady tire of tales of woe, passionate pleadings, and questions that would thwart Professor Quiz is aimed at this pleasant young secretary. Yet through all the raging barrage her cheery smile never wavers. She is every “ready, willing, and able” to assist poor, struggling students. She is the Bureau of Information and a miracle-worker rolled into one. In truth, if there is any hand that keeps the great machinery of the Winchester High School running smoothly, it is Miss Lawson’s! Otis Leary. Seen in the high school much less frequently than we would like him to be, Mr. Leary spends most of his time at the Junior High where he has much better facilities for his work. Little did we realize, until we had seen their exhibition, the wonderful work that our students who take mechani¬ cal drawing and woodworking were callable of doing. Mr. Leary is surely to be admired and respected for this and we know that all his efforts have been appreciated. Mary Mackedon. “Taisez-vous, taisez-vous et asseyez-vous!” After the murmurs subside and the students resume their seats, one can perceive a jocund and rotund face beaming above the class. As she shuffles her little white cards, this pleasingly plump .Miss bubbles over in the French language. Just as she carries on her classes with efficiency and cleverness, so, under her direction, “L’Alliance Francaise” has become one of the popular organizations in the school. Here’s a toast to Miss Mackedon—to whom our yearbook is dedicated —“a friend of the girls, a flirt with the boys.” Thomas L. Maynard. Do you want to act? If so, see Mr. Maynard. He is the one who did such a wonderful job coaching our Class Play this year. This petite director, only 6 ft, 6 in. tall, hails from Rumford, Me. He not only coaches budding Walter Ilampdens and future Katherine Cornells, but also gives the Track Squad many pointers on how to run away with a meet. Above all other sports, the latter is his favorite and he has had much experience in it, being at one time intercollegiate high jump champion. Second only to track conies skiing. This winter Mr. Maynard could be seen almost any time gliding over hill and dale on his trusty “hickories.” In the short time that he has been with us, “Tom has become very well-liked by the students for his good will and friendliness. Gladys E. Niven. Although not very well known personally to most of the student body, Miss Niven is known and admired much for the excellent, cafeteria service our school lias. In addition to managing the school lunch¬ room, she is instructor for the comparatively new but very successful course —Personality Adjustment, which many of the Senior girls are taking to great advantage. Although burdened with a great many duties and responsibilities, Miss Niven is very unassuming and never seems to lose her smile. Virginia R. Owen. We first became acquainted with her ’way back in the dim, dark days of last fall when, with nothing to do during study periods, we spent our leisure time under Miss Owen’s watchful gaze reading newspapers and magazines in the library. However, homework soon began to pile up and it was then we learned how valuable our acquaintance with Miss Owen could be. She proved herself a true friend in the genuine interest she showed, and the helpful aid she gave us in all of our problems. It was her happy disposi¬ tion coupled with an unfailing sense of humor that has made the library such a pleasant place in which to work this past year. Eva Palmer. Perhaps you’ve heard your father speaking of the time when he put a tack-but of how a certain Miss Palmer soon found out and he had to take his punishment. Well, in case you’ve been wondering, that is the same Miss Palmer, who is now teaching Math to a second generation in Winchester. (Simply as a warning—her eyes are just as sharp now as then!). Her knowledge of Math is practically boundless and her pupils look to her not only as a teacher but also as a friend. The best of luck to you, Miss Palmer, and may you continue at Winchester High School for many years to come! Florence A. Parker. As Senior Class Adviser, Miss Parker has one of the most difficult positions in the school. She is constantly being sought for to take care of such matters as ordering rings and pins, looking out for the collection of class dues, supervising graduation, and innumerable other mai¬ lers that must be attended to. Just as she manages the latter with the utmost excellence, so her classes are conducted, with great ease on the part of the teacher and interest on the part of the pupils. A ready wit and a real under¬ standing of young people mean to all—Miss Parker. Lenna Peabody. Miss Peabody is the tall, stately teacher who hides a pair of laughing eyes behind dark glasses and a lovely contralto voice beneath the even tones of scholarly explanations. Although biology is naturally inter¬ esting, she makes it even more so by her charming personality and individual method of teaching. What do you think of such words as algiosperm, spiro- gyra, monocotyledonous and zygospore? Well, to Miss Peabody those are just part of an everyday vocabulary. For even though she teaches biology in school, she lives biology out of scho ol, having a fine collection of all sorts of biological specimens. Marion Proctor. A well-modulated, clear voice comes to your ears from a nearby classroom. You see a slim, attractive figure calmly facing the class. She turns and you find a merry pair of blue eyes set in a small, pretty face gazing at you. This is Miss Proctor. You have only to go up to her and men¬ tion skiing and you will discover her weakness. She spends practically all her spare week-ends in the mountains. Meanwhile, her time is spent in deciphering the complicated hieroglyphics of shorthand. In addition to this, she is faculty adviser for the Red Cross and under her supervision it has become a very suc¬ cessful organization. Lillian Shea. The instructor of French in the Wadleigh Building is that nice-looking young lady with the soothing voice and well dressed figure. In study hall she is known for her eagle eye and her never-failing sense of disci¬ pline. It is also true that this likeable person possesses the power of teaching our green freshmen the correct use of English. However, Miss Shea has many outward appearances which, we hope, have not deceived you. For even though she is quite dignified, her never-failing school-girl sense of humor accompanied by her pleasing personality is constantly apparent. Alice F. Sheehan. The tall, quiet young lady who reigns over Room 2 of the Wadleigh is none other than Miss Sheehan. Here under Miss Sheehan’s guidance, special students show their capability in making colorful hooked rugs, beautiful painting and in doing other very interesting work. Miss Shee¬ han is a great athlete and spends much of her leisure time playing tennis and swimming. She is very popular with both pupils and teachers because of her winning personality and charming manner. Ella M. Stacy. She handles the banking, the Prom, and her history classes all equally well and with equal energy. She can produce a rhyme for every occasion and has never been known to miss a date! Possessing a wonder¬ ful sense of humor, her good nature smoothes over many an awkward moment. A good friend and wise counselor to all who come into contact with her—Mrs. Stacy is indispensable to the High School. •John 1). Stevens. Winchester High School offers a distinctive and refresh¬ ing course in English a la Stevens, for Mr. Stevens possesses all the attributes of an ideal teacher and friend. A group of students, eagerly attentive, watch and enjoy the multifarious movements of John I)., who is an adept performer in most anything, from the graceful art of cake walking to the stiff, clumsy act of goose stepping. From this effervescent fountain of knowledge the pupils drink the rich wines of wisdom, experience, and common sense. They absorb the generous portions of a seemingly endless store of subtle humor. They are won over by his captivating personality, his sociability, his intimacy. They harbor a deep regard for this charming, well-groomed young gentleman. J. Albert Wilson. Mr. Wilson is that debonair gentleman whose privi¬ lege (???) it is to lead our high school chorus. Whether it be soprano or bass, alto or tenor, he sings it. His wit is unsurpassed, his equal hard to find, and his patience—well, did you ever hear a chorus whose altos were loud enough ? Many thanks for all you have done, Mr. Wilson ! Rosamond Young. Miss Young is that vivacious little person that coaches the girls’ teams to such successful seasons and “sits in quietly,” so she says, at A. A. meetings. Her favorite pastimes are skiing and dancing. Who could doubt her ability in the latter as she trips lightly and gracefully around the gym and on the field? As for skiing, we’ve seen certain snapshots that would prove her adeptness to anyone! A light heart and a gay and friendly manner have made Miss Young one of the best-liked teachers in the school. -■ a t - H ----- i t-- Jfc- -- - dC - -it -- � f j €=- u T dedication MARY R.

Geneva has aspirations to be a nurse and you can bet many a young man ■will be breaking his neck or something to be able to spend a few weeks under her capable care.

MARTHA SPRAGUE BLAISDELL “MITTY” “MIDDY ANN” Someone way back in history said, “If you want a job well done, do it yourself.” We say, “If you want a job well done, give it to Martha.” We’ve tried it, and it’s worked wonders! Martha is a “jack-of-all-trades.” She’s a musician, student, good sport, and, on the side, a surrealist. So far, she has been able to uphold the Blaisdell standard and her future should be colorful and most inter¬ esting. Born in Boston, Mass., February 2, 1921.

BOLIVAR “CARL” Carleton is very quiet in school, but those who know him well agree that he certainly can hold his own in any “rag-chew” outside, for he can talk well about almost any subject. Aside from his in¬ terests in drawing, nature, and mystery stories, his real ambition is to be an engineer in planning and constructing great networks of over-head, one¬ way, super-highways all over the country. We can think of little that can stop him. Born in Dayspring, Nova Scotia, May 24, 1920. Activities: Track Team ’37. Hobbies: Nature Collections. Ambition: To become consultant civil engineer.

Her steps, in winter, traverse a beaten path to any frozen pond safe for skating, be it day or night.

Eva came to Winches ter two years ago from Vermont, and she is still loyal to the state rf her birth. Outside of school she is an entirely T Jiff event girl, and many people may be surprised to know that she really can talk when she wants to. As for the personal side of her life— there is always a gang at her house playing ping- pong and generally having a good time, and Eva herself has a pronounced interest in a potential artist from Michigan.

CROUGHWELL, JR. “BILL” Locker room gossip has it that “W. J.” thought¬ fully allows “Lad” Millican to come in second and “Willie the Wolf” Kielhorn third, as regards sailing on Mystic Lake.

ALICE GAGNON I am lovely, in that masculine sort of way, to look upon — for I’m brunette, not too bad to know, and I can sing - for an orchestra fairly well — McHale’s orchestra. Possessed of more ability than ambition (in a scholarly way), I park my books in Room 13 at 2:15. My hobbies are writing letters, dancing - and singing. Many a traveler’s tale can I tell, tor I’ve rambled in New York, sauntered through New Hampshire, Vermont, and Maine, and roamed the nooks and corners, the open spaces, and the woods of Winchester.

LIBONIO FRANCIS GAUDIOSO “LIB “LIBBY” “Libby,” tall, dignified, and friendly. “Lib” was a star at football and basketball early in his high school career, but then the age limit stopped him from competition. But it would take more than that to stop Libby Gaudioso; so with his ready smile and bountiful energy he beeamei assistant to the coach and imparted some of his skill into our teams for their successful seasons. This coopera¬ tion, which is 99 percent of success was typical of Libby and shows that he is bound to succeed. Born in Winchester, Mass., March 1, 1918.

As an athlete, she leaves a splendid record behind and promises to make another in the future. As a student, she has more “credits” to her name than any other senior. “Fran” will always be able to hold her own in the toil and terror of this wild world, if her High School record is a sample of her ability.

WADE LINCOLN GRINDLE, JR, “LINK” Being the son of our distinguished principal should be sufficient to make one outstanding as a member of our class; but “Link” was not content to rest on family laurels and has received distinc¬ tion in many school activities. “Link” has some instinct that enables him to pick out the pretty girls of the underclasses.

MARGARET ELLEN McCAUL “MARGIE” “RED” This girl is an exception to the fact that redheads are temperamental. Occasionally, however, a flaw in temperament has been revealed when a certain teacher has given her numbers to cope with.

The sole supporter of the minor¬ ity group of a problems discussion. “Whacky” must have umph!, or is it just his red hair that makes him so popular with the women ?

Height: 5 ft. 4 in. JOHN JOSEPH McGURN “JOHNNY” “MAC” When it comes to the quietest person in the school John McGurn takes the cake. He is as bashful as he is quiet, why even the thought of going out with a girl would set John to blushing. John likes baseball, and he is also a pool shark.

C., also figure prominently in her life.

OLGA ELIZABETH NYSTROM “OGGIE” Blessed with the most delightful of giggles, Og- gie also boasts of a grand sense of humor. She is an engaging conversationalist—a factor accen¬ tuated by the rich depth of her mellow voice. As for blushing honors—as well as scholastic honors —Oggie certainly bears away the bell, for at the slightest provocation her cheeks suddenly suffuse to a rosy tint. A perfect illustration of beauty and brains stepping hand in hand to produce a cute little cluster of feminism. Born in Sturbridge, Mass., November 3, 1921. Activities: A.

But he doesn’t hit the cinders; he just hangs around seemingly overcome with spring fever; he’s the manager. He never seems to be in a hurry, yet he’s always there. He also is a hardy deck hand of that slovenly although speedy sweeper of the seas, “Haze”. Like his more buxom brother, he is an excellent behind-the-scenes man.

He has ma ny friends, many of which he has had since grammar school. In his sophomore year Tom went out for football, making an excellent showing for he played in every second team game. Con¬ sidered by Coach Mansfield as good football ma¬ terial, it was unfortunate for all of us that he had to give way to the old adage “work before play.” Born in Woburn, Mass., December 18, 1919.

Height: 5 ft. 5 in. PALMINA HELEN PIZZANO “SHRIMP” Helen is one of those business-like people and can be seen punching her typewriter with fury, trying to get those carbon copies finished. She may be thought of as a very quiet girl, but she can be seen laughing just as heartily as anyone else when th-e occasion arises. Her sense of humor and sunny smile should be a great aid in helping her to succeed. Born in Winchester, Mass., March 28, 1920. Activities: Cum Laude; A. A. Hobbies: Hiking, reading. Ambition: To be an aviatrix. Scholastic Intentions for next year: Clerical work. Weight: 90. Height: 5 ft. GEORGE GLEN POTTER “SHORTY” “YANKEE” “Yankee” Potter is all American!

HARRIET BOWMAN QUIMBY Petite Harriet is the most combined outspoken, quiet, yet talkative, cheerful companion in this class. Her voice is soft and pleasing to the ear, and her smile is most infectious. Harriet is by no means the athletic type, she would much rather read or knit, or listen to Nelson Eddy sing. As¬ suredly, Simmons will benefit by Harriet’s viva¬ cious presence and feel no regret whatsoever. Born in Winchester, Mass., February 16, 1920.

Height: 5 ft. 3 in. MARION JACQUELIN SAUNDERS “JACKIE “JACQUE” To the casual observer she seems to be very quiet and reserved, but those who know her will vouch for her merry sense of humor. Jackie’s friends know how to arouse her. Just mention Portland, Me. and watch her eyes light up.

ROBERT MARDELL SAVAGE “STRING” Bob appears to be the “strong silent” man around the school, but there are many different sides to his personality if you get to know him better! His interest in science centers mainly upon elec¬ tricity, and he practices so much at grabbing any¬ thing with electric current in it, that he could probably live through the “chair.” Born in Bangor, Maine., December 17, 1919.

Peter, also known as Richard, can bang the tennis balls around with as much agility as Big Bill Tilden. “Pete” is not backward in his studies having been consistently on the Honor Roll. Handsome Pete could show us all a few things about hockey for on the ice he is just a dazzle of skates. Born in Arlington, Mass., June 14, 1921.

MARGARET SHAUGIINESSEY “PEGGY” If there is a frown on Peggy’s fair countenance just after the teacher has passed back the tests, one may be sure that she is inwardly scolding her¬ self for getting a 98 instead of her usual 100. That’s the way Peggy does things. Nothing short of perfect satisfies her. Besides bringing down A’s in all of her subeots, she has captured let¬ ters for both varsity hockev and basketball. As for the future, Peggy is building dreams of a type¬ writer on a shiny topped desk marked, “PRIVATE SECRETARY.” Born in Woburn, Mass., October 8, 1921.

MARGUERITE ANN SHEA “BLACKIE” Marguerite has a wide variety of interests, and judging by the success she has had with them in High School, she should continue to do as well at Leland Powers next year.

PETER LAWRENCE SIBLEY “PETE “SIB” “BUTCH” “CHUCK” “SLUGG Butch is the living example of the proverb, “Per¬ severance Wins”. When Chuck came out for foot¬ ball in his Freshman year, he was such a little fellow Coach Mansfeld kept him off the squad for fear someone would fall over him and hurt him¬ self; but Slug worked hard for his position until he achieved not only a varsity position, but also its captaincy. Just as a side line, he was also able to win the Mansfield cup for good sportsmanship. Born in Calcutta, India, November 13, 1920.

SHIRLEY ARNOLD SMITH “SHIRTS” Safety in numbers is her motto, for of course you know that “Shirts” is the girl who appears in school each year with a different engagement ring- on her finger. But aside from her indoor sports, “Shirts” can perform especially well on skis, with a tennis racquet, or with a hockey skirt. “Shirts” hasn’t studied astronomy, but she has a grand idea of what it takes to make a pleasant evening.

VERA MI NETTA SNYDER “VEE” Only a few are aware of the mischief that lurks whenever little “Vee” is about. Perhaps it’s because of Haverhill, or are we mistaken. At least to bru¬ nette lovers she’s the tops. We’ll have to visit her in a few years to learn whether she’s learned to whistle yet. iShe is the inspiration of her class¬ mates; and her stick-to-itiveness is going to make her able to realize her ambition.

De¬ spite his size, he is one of the best members of the gym, team and seeing him fly through some of his stunts makes us think he has an excellent start for that aviation course he intends to take in Texas.

DOROTHY ELIZABETH WEBER “DOTTY”’ A little Swiss doll is the first impression demure Dotty makes upon the casual observer. Way back in ’29, from far away Chicago, she honored this illustrious town with her presence, and here she has remained, a definite high ranker among those studies that are all more readily associated with the masculine element,—physics, chemistry, and higher mathematics. As we see by her future ambitions, we may assuredly expect some new invention, or at least, a repudiation of some theory of dear old Hippocrates. Born in Brooklyn, N. Y., April 15, 1921.

History of the Glass of 1938 In the year of our Lord, nineteen hundred thirty-four, a long time ago, we entered the impressive ivy covered portals of Winchester High School. At that time we were hitting a new high, everything was different, we had to adjust ourselves to a new regime. It didn’t take us long to do that and soon we had our leaders who were to guide us through that first treacherous year. President was Russell Ellis who has since left us; Vice-President, Betty Kendrick; Secretary, Eleanor Greene; Treasurer, Peter Sibley. Our class soon got its teeth into things by joining the various club and squads. Gerald Ficoeiello and Arthur Johnson figured prominently on the baseball squad, while Rut Ellis and Harrison Lyman both grabbed varsity positions on the tennis squad. After having passed a very bewildering year, we at last collected our wits and looked forward to the next year when we would be old hands at everything, and show those upper classmen a few things. Our leaders that year were Pete Sibley, President; Tom Worthen, Vice-President; Helen Rassat, Secretary; Jeanne Tufts, Treasurer, who has since left school. The famous Gerry Fic¬ oeiello showed the boys how football was played and got a varsity position for his effort. Libby Gaudioso, the flash of the basketball court, upheld the honor of the class in that corner. Both Libby and Artie Johnson flashed out and got positions on the varsity baseball team. Rut Ellis again showing his style whammed his way to a varsity letter in tennis, and Charlie Reeves sped across the finish line enough times in the lead to make them give him his letter in track. The girls showed they had what it takes when their class basketball team won the school championship. Shirley White received her varsity letter in tennis. We now began to figure in the different clubs. Pete Slibley, A T ice- 1‘resident of the Dramatic Society; Rut Ellis, treasurer of the Red Cross; anjd Suzanne Reed, another who has left us, Assistant Secretary of the Thrift Association. Our Junior year was really old stuff to us all and we monopolized about all the school activities. Our officers were a stalwart group: President, Jack Finger; Vice-President, John Farley; Secretary, Jean Fowler; Treasurer, Judy Ilersom; as Secretary of the A. A., Betty Kendrick did a fine job. As the Treasurer of the A. A. we find Pete Sibley; Ben Schneider brought in the coffers as the Treasurer of the Red Cross. The French Club became promi¬ nent, and why not with Brad Darling as Vice-President and Eleanor Greene as Secretary. Brad Darling worked hard as advertising manager of the school paper the Highlights. The master minds were now 1 beginning to bud and we find Clement Thompson as Yice-President of the Science Club. The traffic squad was well up on its toes through the work of John Adam Finger as Lieuteivint. The sports that year were well taken care of by members of our class. Those to receive varsity letters in football were Jack Finger, Bob Gard¬ ner, Dan Delorey, Gerrv Ficoeiello, and Pete Sibley; in field hockey were Peggy Shinnick, Loretta Gaffney, Judy Ilersom, Shirley Smith, and Jean McKenzie; in cross country were Dan Mahoney and Joe Russo; in girls’ bas¬ ketball Loretta Gaffney who was also captain, and Gertrude Meserve; in boys ' basketball were Captain Libby Gaudioso, Richard Hakanson, Junie Donaghey, and Louis Errico; we also started a ski club with the best skiers in Winchester, Ben Schneider and Bill Crouglnvell as chairmen. Foiled by the weather, this club turned out to be a prayer meeting for snow. Varsity letters in baseball were received by Flash Clem Bairstow and Junie Donaghey, who was following in his brothers’ footsteps; in tennis were Tom Worthen, who has left school, and Pete Scully ; in track Charlie Reeves, Bob Gardner, and Gerry Ficociello showed us what the Greeks of old used to do. We all had the advantage this year of attending the Junior-ISenior Prom, which was a great success mainly through the efforts of some of our classmates who were on the Prom Committee. Of course, we mustn’t forget the class play which showed us remarkable talent, with Link Grindle representing our class. Finally, we stepped up to our last hurdle, the Senior year. This year went much too fast but certainly must be counted as our best year at the Winchester High School. Our officers did a very capable job and certainly had good cooperation from the members of the class, making things click off very smoothly. As our President we had Dan Delorey; as Vice-President, Gerry Ficociello; as Secretary, Rita McGonigle; and as Treasurer, Pete Sibley. Our members dominated all activities taking place in school, which is as it should be. Again we helped present a highly successful class play with Helen Rassat, Eleanor Greene, Jack Finger, and Pete Sibley representing our class. Each year for four years we took some part in a highly successful Vaude- ville show which was presented by the Athletic Association. The highlight of the year was the Prom; Mrs. Stacy, Mr. Butters, and the Prom Committee deserve a lot of credit for their hard work to make it such a success. Looking back upon these four years we must confess we feel a pang of regret that they are gone, but we certainly are thankful for all the wonderful times which the Winchester High School has afforded us. Peter Sibley Glass (prophecy A MIDSUMMER NIGHT’S DREAM (With all apologies to William Shakespeare) The Time: June 7, 1958. The Place: The great American metropolis, Winchester, Massachusetts. The Characters: The Class of 1938. It is the night of the grand opening of the fifty million dollar Grindle Playhouse, the masterpiece of that polished young architect Carlton Bolivar. As the long, shiny, black limousines roll up to the brilliantly illuminated en¬ trance, a throng of excited spectators surge forward, eager to catch a glimpse of the alighting celebrities. Two ingenious salesmen, Searle Martin and Bob Weldon, capitalizing on the occasion, generously offer the crowd ‘‘the oppor¬ tunity of a lifetime — a close-up of the famous personages for only a dollar a minute through the high-powered telescope of the renowned Doctor Robert Savage. ” All fitted out, even to brass buttons and white gloves, doormen Francis Feeney, John Bosnian, Don Linnell, and Dick Grosvenor receive the first nighters; while Tom Perry, John McGurn, Clement Thompson, Mikey Voz- zella, Joe Russo, and Charlie Pease do the honors as ushers. Among the early arrivals are Governor Dan Delorey and his two private secretaries Margaret Mc ' Caul and Alice Kerrigan; director general of the nation’s railroads Bud Carlson; that dashing king of Main Street night life, Willard Durham; and arm-in-arm, Charlie Kitchin, professor of mathematics at Harvard, and Eleanor Jenkins, Radcliffe’s new dean. Then, there is a real thrill for the mass of on-lookers as screen idols Ann Marsters and Bert Rutledge spring out of a smart yellow coupe. More gasps of delight as glamorous Hope Tuck and her escort, handsome Jerry Ficoeiello, Gable’s successor, swing through the theatre doors. Next, scientist George Conklin hobbles in, assisted by Nurse Sylvia D’Ambrosio. In a moment of absent- mindedness, Doctor Conklin had combined HN03-C3H5(OH)3. These are followed by Police Commissioner Harry Landmark and Regis¬ trar of Motor Vehicles Fred Housen, who endeavors to give the hat-cheek girls, Florence Farnham and Jean Fowler, some tips on safe driving! Hopping in and out of the incessant stream of socialites like a human cricket is Arthur Harris, photographer for the WINCHESTER DAILY RECORD. At his heels is ace reporter Rita McGonigle of the same syndicate. Inside the theatre, feet are unconsciously beating time to the rippling rhythms of Maestro Bud Fuller ' s orchestra which is comprised of such masters of melody as Dan Mahoney, Lad Milliean, John Colgate, Bob Clifford, Ray Manger, Duncan Ferguson, Everett Kimball, Fred Donovan, and Clem Barks¬ dale. In the exclusive boxes sit the Reverend John A. Finger and his wife, the former Gale Angas; Barbara Fifield, current entomologist (Bug-bee- follower) and her protege Shirley Smith; and the two stars of the tennis world, Peg Shinniek and Peter Scully. One box is conspicuously vacant. The black bonneted heads of the Women’s Temperance League fill the front rows. These noble souls are Eleanor Greene, leader, and her co-workers Agnes Keenan, Peggy Carroll, Marjorie Lawson, Katherine Cassari, Josephine ( ' aj)one, Eva Barone, Betty Kendrick, Evelyn McGurn, Miriam Harris, and Maura Moynahan. Near tliem are Norma Ahern, traveller and souvenir col¬ lector, and her companion Marion Ambrose, teacher of Spanish at Lowell Normal School. Then, chatting together are Jane Offutt, Mary Gray, Barbara Wilde, and Florence Barry, models at “Potter’s for Better Things.” Beside them is Glen himself with his charming salesgirls Olga Nystrom, Jean Tarbell, Mary Murray, Vera Snyder, and Eleanor Thompson. In this corner, we have Harry “ ' Crusher” McGrath, heavy-weight wrestling champion and his manager Clarence “Butch” Fogg. In the second r ow Edwin Carr, recipient of humerous degrees as Doctor of English Literature, is relating to William Hackett a tall story of his last fishing trip. From a secluded section of the first gallery, shy but illustrious Gert Meserve, who recently made the first non-stop flight around the globe ever accomplished by a woman, views the distinguished assembly. With her are poetess Connie Eaton; expert hockev commentator Martha Blaisdell; Marion Terhune, popular author of “MY TWENTY YEARS, IN KINDERGARTEN”; Beatrice Grimes, outstanding member of the world’s diplomatic circles; and Peggy Shaughnessey, founder of “Harlem House,” a refuge for decrepit negroes. The last row of the second balcony is well occupied by Don Wilson and his winning baseball team from Strawberry Corners: Art Johnson. Clem Bairstow, Ed Lassen, Robert Hushen, Louis Errico, William Keilhorn, Robert Parish, Dick Hakanson, and “Junie” Donaghey. Then, as the lights grow dim and the audience gets ready for the first act of the immortal play “SCHOOL DAYS,” two figures streak down the aisle to solve the mystery of that empty box. They are the former Harriot Downs, the centre of Winchester social circles, and her husband, the steel magnate John Welburn — late per usual. As the curtain rises. Professor “Bimbo” Clark is trying in vain to inter¬ est an apathetic group of young men and women in SELF-CULTIVATION IN ENGLISH. In the back of the room, there is an intriguing poker game going on among students Gaudioso, Buckley, Gardner, and Farris. John McGold- rick and Walter Noonan have decided that it’s about time for their daily nap. Audrey Samuels is conscientiously studying Loretta Gaffney’s homework. Joan Kerrigan is describing her adventures of the previous evening to listeners Harriet Quimby, Ronnie Cornwall, and Doris Kimber, while Jessie Laidlaw, Edna Lundgren, and Josephine Mistretta are busily working out intricate steps of the Shag. In a cozy nook, hero Peter Sibley and heroine Helen Passat are supplying the necessary love element of the drama. The scene ends with Professor Clark’s resolution to take drastic measures to arouse his pupils’ attention. During the intermission. Salvatore Ferro’s troupe of dazzling chorus girls kick and sway to Thelma Bratt’s new rhapsody, “Sinners of Paradise.” These sirens are Christine Johanson, Peggy Flaherty, Margaret Hannon, Grace Irwin, Mildred Bryce, Ruth Carroll, Ruth Wilde, Helen Pizzano, and Tereasa Guiliani. Their lovely costumes were designed by Francis Glidden and Stellina Evange¬ lista. The “Southern Songsters” (no one ever mentions their New England origin), Helen Welch, Mildred Dineen, Catherine Barry, Marie Dunn, and Marguerite Shea, present a little variety in harmony. Next Shirley Somerby sends tin; house into roars of laughter with one of her clever impersonations. While in the lobby refreshments are being served by hostesses Florence Camp¬ bell. Theresa Morocco, Ena Burt, Alice Gagnon, Eleanor Barron, Eleanor Carroll, and Virginia Ferro. Then suddenly, as the signal is given for the second act, a shout breaks the stillness: “Down with Governor Delorey. Down with democracy! Of¬ ficer Tom Parsons quickly and efficiently removes radical Schneider. As the play continues, there is a marked change in the attitude of the male stu¬ dents. All eyes are earnestly focused on the front of the room where Professor Clark is joyfully conducting a study in feminine beauty. His living illustra¬ tions are Geneiva Manning, Mildred Morse, Judy Hersom, Nancy Wolfe, Grace McManus, Dot Lybeck, Ruth Dye, Jean McKenzie, Virginia Taylor, and Jane Kimball, personality girl for B. Darling and Company, makers of Sweet¬ heart Soap. After honors are awarded Miss Kimball, Professor Clark tact¬ lessly suggests that the class resume the subject of SELF-CULTIVATION, whereupon he is lifted bodily by Roeco DeTeso, Bill Dolan, and Paul Gallagher and deposited in the waste basket. The curtain falls. The play is over. The dream is broken. “If the shadows have offended Think but this (and all is mended) That you have but slumbered here, While these visions did appear. And this weak and idle theme, No more yielding but a dream. Gentles, do not reprehend; If you pardon, we will mend. So, good night unto you all.” (Puck) Peter Scully Margaret Carroll Glass Statistics 1� est All-Around: II i«� • 1 1 scholastic rating ' s, superior athletic ability, a rare combination, but aren’t people like “Pete” Sibley and Loretta Gaffney just as rare ?

(The Xast Jffiill mb (Eestmimtt of tlje (Elass of 1938 BE IT REMEMBERED that we, the members of the superlative class of nineteen hundred and thirty-eight (otherwise known as the omnipotent seniors, the omniscient scholars, the twentieth-ce ntury Sapphists), being of sound mind and memory, but realizing the uncertainty of this life, do hereby declare on this fourth day of June in the year of our Lord, nineteen hundred and thirty- eight, this to be our last will and testament. To our faithful retinue — the Freshmen, iSophomores, and Juniors —- do we give, devise, and bequeath as follows: To Betty Ann Dickson, do I, pleasant evenings spent together. Clem Bairstow leave sweet memories of I, Dot Webber, sadly relinquish claim to my most valuable property, Robert Elliott, with the understanding that no one person be given exclusive possession. With the provision that she refrain from talking in her sleep, I, Harriot Downs, do bequeath to Peggy McNally my most eloquent gift, commonly known as volubility or “copia verborum,” but frequently referred to as “gab.” I, Joanie Kerrigan, do hereby nominate and appoint Marde Dickson as sole executor and guardian of one Douglas Graham. To Joan Worthen, do 1, Ruth Dye, cede my superb dramatic talent. To Marcia Collins, do I, Millie Bryce, leave my ability to truck, shuffle, and dance my way into his heart. I, A1 Kerrigan, assuming that “a word to the wise is sufficient” and hoping that others may profit by my experience, give as a kindly suggestion to all underclassmen the intimation that gym doors at the Prom close promptly at 8 :45. To Betty Collins and Ed Kenney, do we, Loretta Gaffney and Artie John¬ son, leave our unusual athletic prowess and our ability to “get along.” I, Fred Housen, leave my propensity for driving at any rate over fifty miles an hour to my faithful protege, Frannie Murray, on condition that he not pick such an appropriate place as Border Road on which to stall the car. To “Red” Carroll, do I, Dannie Delorey, commit sole custody of one of Woburn High’s personality girls. I, Dick Hakanson, leave my well-knit, muscular build and my refreshing personality to Paulie Cavanaugh. I, Peggy Hannon, will my superior air of confidence to my erstwhile and trustworthy brother. Bud. I, Freddie Donovan, apportion among my fellow admirers—Paul Connors, Dick Sullivan, Johnie Nash, and “Bunty” Kimball—my ease and gracefulness in the Terpsichorean art. I, Rutliie Carroll, entrust my extraordinary capacity for eating six meals a day and still keeping trim to Florence Brvce. I, Dot Lybeck, will to that bundle of dynamite, Gardner Jones, my exten¬ sive collection of hair ribbons, with the stipulation that he use them to some advantage. I, “Bud” Carlson, do hereby and forthwith bequeath one “back to nature” campaign in blossoming condition to ' Charles Bacon, with the hope that he wil l carry on the good work that I have started.

I, Gale Angas, do hereby bequeath my sweet disposition to Shirley Ann Reynolds. I, Lad Millican, entrust to any enterprising Junior my seat in Miss Palmer’s math class, at the same time warning him that it is a very hot seat. I, W. J. Croughwell, will my rugged individualism to B. Wolcott Cary, I, Harold Fuller, do bequeath my slap-happy disposition to Dick Farns¬ worth. I, Clarence Q. Fogg, after careful deliberation and cogitation, have decided that my serene disposition will be best preserved for posterity if bequeathed to George Ilebb. I, Harry McGrath, who has been hitherto the wisest guy in the school, do yield this honorable station to Gardner Jones. Signed: Ben Schneider, Rita McGonigle. Olass Oration Friends and Fellow Students!—I feel like the man, who, when he was asked to speak, said that he felt like the man who, when he was asked to speak, said that he felt like the man who, when he was asked to speak said that he was sorry but hq couldn’t think of any jokes. It is a great privilege and honor to be able to address you tonight with a few words of relative unimportance, and not wishing to bore you with details, I shall try to limit my discourse to, say,—30 minutes. This is a great and solemn moment in our lives. It is the end of the be¬ ginning, and the beginning of the end of our education. We have, at last, reached by hook or by; crook, the point at which this honorable institution is ready to give us back to the world either better than it found us, or as the whale did Jonah, because he gave the whale such a stomachache when he was inside. For the most part, we are on the threshold of life, and, if we don ' t trip in crossing it, are ready to find out if what we have been told about life is the bunk or not. Of course there are always exceptions to every rule and I am re¬ ferring to those few, who, not wishing to face the facts of life are going to spend another four years of the most valuable part of their life at various country- clubs which hide under the title of “college . Nevertheless, as we leave to take our places in life, we must remember that we are united by common principles and ideals, and as citizens of this great na¬ tion of culture and slot-machines, we have a solemn duty to perform. For we are to be the voters of tomorrow, and we will be responsible for upholding the principles of this democracy, and we will have to pay for the Social Security Act! As a class too, we should stick together. The Elks have their hand-shakes and their secret words, why shouldn’t the class of W. H. S. — 1938 have also its byword. Therefore from now on let it be known that “Foo is the pass-word of this class. It is a universal word and means anything and everything. Use it if you are in doubt, use it if you’ve run out of adjectives. It will pick you up if you’re feeling low, it will hold you down, if you’re feeling high. It will identify you. Ten years from now, if you run up to a man on the street and say “Foo”, lie’ll either slap you on the back or call a cop, but if lie’s a Frenchman he’ll probably swing at you first. I also propose to you, most honored classmates, that we endorse a new symbol, to be called “The Spirit of ’38 . It will be comparable to The Spirit of ’76, but instead of four war weary soldiers returning from battle with fife and drum, there will be four swing-weary alligators returning from a jam- session with three clarinets and a slap-base. Thus my friends will tin memory and the spirit of this extraordinary class endure through the ages like the Rock of Gibraltar and increase as time goes on like the national debt, always remembering the word of the great philosopher who said: “Don’t change your bridges before they hatch, and don ' t cross horses in the middle of the stream. Bradford Darling (presentation of Glass ffift Tn past years, it has been ihe custom of the classes of the Winchester High School to make some gift to the school, at the time of graduation. Tonight, it is my privilege to make the presentation for the class of 1938. In a year when many institutions and organizations are celebrating the 150th anniversary of the Constitution of the United States, the selection of a gift has not been difficult. All people, everywhere, are becoming more and more conscious of history and politics, and all citizens of the United States are justly proud of the document that marks the birth of our nation. Gladstone says, “The American Constitution is the most wonderful work ever struck off at a given time by the brain and purpose of man.” To us, of the present generation, it has other meanings worthy of our consideration and study. The men at the Constitutional Convention repre¬ sented all types—the original and constructive thinker, shrewd, tactful speakers, able critics from various angles of interest—the adaptable and the unadapt¬ able—with a great number of ordinary men, earnest and eager, but not bril¬ liant, not remarkable. There were those who would build, those who would tear down, those who must be shown but who, having been shown, could go out and persuade others as they had been persuaded. This was certainly not a unified group, but one of conflicting purposes until Washington drew them together with these famous words, “It is too probable that no plan we propose will be adopted. Perhaps another dreadful conflict is to be sustained. If, to please the people, we offer what we ourselves disapprove, how can we after¬ ward defend our work? Let us raise a standard to which the wise and the honest can repair, the event is in the hand of God.” With these words he urged them to greater and more united effort. Have not we in our public schools this same cross-section of human life: the creator, the critic, the follower? Will not this gift of ours stimulate them and till them with the desire to “raise a standard to which the wise and the honest can repair?” It is with great pleasure that I present this Shrine of the Constitution to the Winchester High School. Daniel Delorey Acceptance of Glass fjift The custom of the graduating classes of presenting a gift is one that should be appreciated by the underclassmen. We who shall be here next year will not forget the class of 1938; for many years its influence will be felt by the students of Winchester High School. Since this is the one hundred and fiftieth anniversary of our Constitution, it is most appropriate that the class of 1938 should choose this Shrine of the Constitution as its gift to the future classes of the school. It shall be given ;i place of honor and shall be valued highly for what it signifies, the birth of our nation. As a representative of the student body of Winchester High School, I wish to thank the class of 1938 for this excellent gift. Jack Downs £ ' History of the fjunior Glass •Bota� The Junior Class, led by John Downs and upheld by basketball star Grey Twombly as Vice-President, Frances Trott as Secretary, and Barbara Moulton as Treasurer, started the year off in fine shape. Many of our members have shared in athletic honors, with Edward Kenney is Treasurer of the A. A. Douglas Graham has been elected for next year’s football Captain, and Carl Johnson is to captain the basketball squad. Girls have shared in these honors too, with Myrtle Goodhue as Captain of the ’39 field hockey team, and Joan Worthen as Secretary of this year’s A. A. Two of our members claimed Red Cross offices, David Burnham as Pres¬ ident and Betty Dickson as Vice-President. As usual, the annual A. A. Vaudeville Show and the Junior-Senior Class Play, produced unknown actors and actresses from the ranks of Junior Class- men, such as: Joan Worthen and John Kishler. The Honor Roll claimed 37 Juniors the first quarter, dropped to 31 the second and up again to 38 the third quarter. As for other activities, many of our students are on the traffic squad, in the Dramatic Society, in the French Club, and were members of the A. A. We hope the officers for next year will do as good a job as the two leading officers of the Junior Class have done this present year. This we shall see next fall, when we become upperclassmen and take over the responsibility of becoming members of the “mighty Senior” ranks. Katherine Wyman ’39 Frances Trott ’39 CANDID SHOTS history of the Sophomore Gloss Tlie class of 1!)40 was the first one to spend their freshman year apart from the rest of the high school in the Wadleigh building. Then, of course, when they entered the high school building on September 8, 11)87 they were tbe first to enter as sophomores. Taking up their school work where they had left it the year before they kept an average amount of students on the honor roll. The class also placed the following letter men and women on the athletic squads .- Football. Varsity, Peter Galuffo, Anthony DeTeso. Second Team, Michael Gilberti. Hockey. Varsity, Carolyn Blanchard.

During the middle of the football season the following class officers were elected : President . Emmons Ellis Vice-President . Peter Galuffo Secretary . Stephen Holmes Treasurer . Bernard Vespucci In banking, rooms 26 and 37 led the rest of the sophomore homerooms and failed to attain 100 percent only once and twice respectively. The rest of the class maintained an average of over 90 percent with the exception of one day. The sophomores also placed James Weaver, Priscilla Tapley, Jean Drake, Quentin Skene, Barbara Hughes, Helen Swanson, Nancy Nickerson, and Joseph Becker in the orchestra, produced the play, “Submerged” under the direction of Miss Bailey in which the actors were James Weaver, Emmons Ellis, Samuel Crabtree, Richard MacFarland, Wallace Howard, and Carl Bolter, and were represented by David Schneider and Mildred Rogers, Vice-President and Secretary respectively in the Junior Red Cross. Finishing a good season the sophomores hope to characterize their next by more fellowship, more representation, and more progress. Stephen Holmes 3 ii story of the ( ,Jreshman Glass � =D°C3 We entered the Wadleigh School, last fall, sure that all the horrible tales and traditions, we had heard, were true. However, we soon found all of them false or greatly embellished, and promptly became adjusted, resolving firmly to make up more terrible ones for the classes to come after us. About this time the business of electing officers came up. We chose Craig Greiner as President, Jane Armstrong as Vice-President, Joan Moffette as Secretary, and Thomas Hickey as Treasurer. For the Christmas assembly the Freshmen members of the Dramatic So¬ ciety presented a play. When we first heard the title Is Santa Claus a Fraud? we thought that the upper-classmen had chosen it to put us in our place. But, when we discovered that Miss Bailey had picked it out and was going to coach it, we vowed to do our best. Whether it will be remembered years from now or not, everyone in the cast had a good time producing it. The following took part: Bessie Fogg, Jane Armstrong, Mary Baghdoyan, Dolly Greene, Craig Greiner, Charlotte Hall, Thomas Hickey, Lane McGovern, Natalie McLeod, Eleanor Randall, Elinor Reeves, Leila Jane Smith, Ernest Stockwell, Elnora Terlmne, Doris Thornton, Janet Hayward, Donald Johnson, Joan Moffette, James O’Connor, Harrison Parker, Jean Pentz, Zoe Tibbetts, Charlotte Benson, Ray Harris, Proctor Jones, Barbara Regan, Betty Jane Thompson, John Tracy, Nina Underwood, Robert Griffiths, Daniel Roop, Robert Twombly. It is particularly noteworthy that freshmen took part in nine of the twenty- one acts of the Vau-devil show. Those participating were: Maxine Lybeck, Eleanor Randall, Zoe Tibbetts, Joan Moffett, Berta Mag- nusson, Elinor Reeves, Nancy Christianson, Marie Cucolo, Dominic Cimina. Polly Kimball, Bonney Wilson, Claire McGrath, Janet Hayward, Marjorie Mahoney, Elsie Grey, Harry Dodge, and Brock Lynch. This year, quite a few “ Wadleighers” went out for extra-curricular sports. The diminutive (compared to our brawny varsity players) football team, affectionately known as the Heebie decides, played, a regular schedule of five games. The freshman girls’ hockey team won their 1941 numerals in that sport. Among the inflated chests occasioned by this feat were those belonging to Cap¬ tain Helen Carroll and her team — Jane Armstrong, Mary Baghdoyan, Marie Cucolo, Betty Jean England, Anna Errico, Rose Gaudioso, Dolly Greene, Muriel Harm, Janet Hayward, Maxine Lybeck, Rita McCormack, Mary Mar- chesi, Elnora Terlmne, and Barbara Waugh. There was no freshman boys’ basketball team but some boys tried out for varsity and found themselves on a team. We had a large freshman girls’ basketball team. This year for the first time there will be a masculine freshman baseball team, complete with uniforms. Weather permitting they will play a regular schedule. The members of the girls ' freshman baseball team are: Mary Marchesi, Rose Gaudioso, Joyce Maxon, Margaret Carr, Muriel Hann, Dorothy Walsh. Mary Lombard, Anna Errico, Beatrice Pattee, and Rita McCormack. Those freshmen who felt the urge to run tried out for the varsity track team and after practically “running their soles off.” a fast few made the team. Despite such a widespread school sports spirit, the freshman class has been able to keep up in scholarship. Our number of honor roll pupils has grown larger every term. Leila Jane Smith. INTRODUCING OUR ACTIVITIES FOOTBALL SQUAD G football � So(3 The 1937 football season found the Winchester High School football team under the supervision of a new coach, George M. Lauer. This man showed us some flashy football and with bis assistant Ed Bartlett, led the team to the top of the Middlesex League. For a team that had only practiced a week, Winchester looked very good losing against Arlington 6 to 2. The next game was with Marblehead, a team that had tied us the previous year 6 to 6. The locals were a bit overconfident and came out on the short end of a 14 to 0 score. The third game was with Concord, the first league game of the season. Winchester finally came out on the victorious side by winning 20 to 0. Winchester next came in contact with Stoneham and had no trouble dis¬ posing of them 25 to 6. The fifth game was with Belmont. Belmont came to Winchester with high hopes of winning, but their hopes were soon downed. Winchester played fine ball to win 19 to 6. The game was full of thrills and the highlight of the game was Captain Ficociello ' s 75-yard run for a touchdown. The next game was with Maynard. Winchester won easily 19 to 0. The last league game was with Lexington, where Winchester whitewashed them 33 to 0. This was one of the largest scores Winchester had rolled up for a long time. Next came Wellesley and this was an easy game for the locals with both squads playing throughout the game. The final score being 42 to 0. Last and by far the most important game was with Woburn. The locals never played better ball and from the opening period to the gun, Winchester was making Woburn look like grammar school students. The team was sparked by “Artie” Johnson, Captain “Ficky” and “Clem” Bairstow. The final score being 46 to 0. This was the largest score ever made in a Woburn game bv either team. The letter men on the squad were: Gerry Ficociello, Co-Capt. Pete Sibley, Co-Capt, Bob Gardner Danny Delorey Don Wilson Clem Bairstow John Welburn Jack Finger Lad Millican Artie Johnson Paul Dentine Doug Graham. Capt.-elect Richie McCormack Ilartie Horie Fran Murray Piggy DeTeso Pete Galuffo Bill Croughwell, Mgr. WINCHESTER PUBLIC LIBRARY WINCHESTER, MASS. FIELD HOCKEY SQUAD tjield 3(ocheij Winning no championship, yet gaining a high rank among the Greater Boston Hockey teams, was the Winchester team. The season closed with four wins, two ties, and one loss to an old rival, Arlington. Winchester opened the season with a 2-1 victory over the Jay-vees. While this was only a practice game, it showed up the team’s weaknesses and a few changes were made. The first outside school Winchester played and defeated was Watertown. The final score was 2-1. The following week the team journeyed to Brookline to win 4-0. Melrose and Arlington all happened in one week. Melrose tied us 0-0, while Arlington took the home team 3-2, ’Nuff said. The team then resumed its winning streak to defeat Belmont 2-0, only to again break down and let Lexington tie them in the final game 1-1. The first team was captained by Loretta Gaffney. The other members were Judy Ilersom, Frances Glidden, Jean McKenzie, Peggy Shinniek, Peggy Shaughnessy, Shirley Smith, Esther ' Coined, Myrtle Goodhue, Marjorie Manzie, and sophomore Carolyn Blanchard. The second team had little Jean Clement as captain who led the team in a fairly successful season. The other members were Marion Ambrose, Rut it 01 instead, Betty Dickson, Christine Flaherty, Ruth Merrow, Margaret McNally, Mildred Rogers, Rita Collins, and Marion Samuels. Frances Glidden was high scorer while Elizabeth Phelan acted as manager. At the close of the season, defense player Myrtle Goodhue, was elected next year’s captain. The team should have continued success under her guidance if they resume with the enthusiasm and hard work the candidates showed this year. Gross Gountrij The cross country team, under the watchful eye of Coach Tom Maynard, had a fairly successful season. The team won four and lost three. There were eight boys who received letters. The boys who did exceptionally well were Danny Mahoney, Danny Dinneen, John MacPartlin, and Joe Connolly. Other boys on the team were Joe Russo, Fred Donahue, Donald Cray, and Manager Bob Parish. The scores are as follows: Winchester . Winchester . Winchester . Winchester . Winchester .. Winchester .

The first team members were Captain Meserve, Genieva Manning, Jean Tarbell, Peggy Shin nick, Jean Fowler, Peggy Shaughnessy, and Loretta Gaff¬ ney. Marion Ambrose was the quiet yet enthusiastic manager. The second team was made up of Captain Idella Tapley, Helen Tripp, Priscilla Tapley, Louise Wilde, Myrtle Goodhue, Christine Flaherty, Carolyn Blanchard and Marian Samuels. The season started with a round of inter-class school games with Lexington, Melrose, and Reading. At the close of the season, seven of the first team mem¬ bers journeyed to Newton to play four private schools in a round-robin tourna¬ ment. The teams the girls played and defeated were Buckingham, Windsor, La Salle, and Cambridge. The summary of the varsity games: Winchester . . 36 Melrose . . 1!)

Its members were Captain Barbara Hughes, Jean Roberts, Gladys Fifield, Rita Collins, Mildred Rogers, Helen Swanson and Lee Clarke. V - BOYS’ BASKETBALL c •Basketball Winchester had a very successful season this year tying Belmont for the Middlesex crown. The locals started the season by winning their first eight games. The Alumni and Woburn were included in this string of victories. The faculty game was looked forward to with interest. Shorty Maynard, Eagle-eye Hayward, and Long ISliot Bartlett were the stars for the faculty. The team was captained by Richard llakanson, who was also high scorer. Hakie was ably helped by Artie Johnson, Junie Donaghy, Carl Johnson, and Louis Errico. All in all, it was a very good season and the games proved very interesting. So far, Winchester has had two championships since the arrival of its new coach. The scores are as follows: Winchester . . 30 — Alumni . . 29 Winchester . . 25 — Woburn . . 24 Winchester . . 25 - Stoneham . . 16 ' Winchester . . 25 Wakefield .. oo Winchester . . 25 — Lexington . op Winchester . . 24 - Concord . oo Winchester . . 25 — Belmont . . 19 Winchester . . 27 Reading . . 16 Winchester . . 21 — Woburn . . 23 Winchester . . 21 — Stoneham . . 26 Winchester . . 36 Wakefield . 32 Winchester . . 25 Lexington . . 27 Winchester . . 43 - Concord . . 37 Winchester . 22 — Belmont .. . 30 Winchester . . 29 — Reading . . 15 Totals . . 402 360 BASEBALL SQUAD 6 •Baseball A large number of candidates reported to ’Coach Lauer for the first prac¬ tice sessions. The usual fielding, throwing, and batting practices indicated that the starting line-up should include: Catcher, Gerald Ficociello; first base, James Donaghey (Captain) ; second base, Charles Carr; short stop, Edward Kenney; third base, Anthony DeTeso; left field, Paid Connors; center field, Clement Bair- stow; right field, Hartlyn Horie; pitchers, Arthur Johnson, Carl .John¬ son, A1 Deminico; utility men, Murdock, Gainey, Hallo, Ciareia. Winchester’s hopes for a successful season depend upon the performance of such veterans as Captain Donaghey, Edward Kenney, and Clem Bairstow plus the efforts of the new men, and the fire-ball hurling ace, Artie Johnson. Pitching for Winchester in the first game of the season against Lexington, Johnson, in rare form, limited them to two hits and set down eighteen men by the strike-out route. After losing a game to Concord, Johnson again took the mound and here sixteen men went down swinging. Although Johnson, who is now under contract with the Bees, is truly a remarkable pitcher, the entire team deserves credit for the excellent cooperation and spirit that has been shown throughout the season. At the time we go to press, Winchester is sharing top place honors with Concord. The record of four wins against three losses indicates the tight race for league honors. Of the remaining five games Winchester must win at least three to place herself at the top of the league. The entire school is behind the ball club in this battle for if thej are able to come across with the title, Win¬ chester will have had championship teams in the three major sports this year.

Nevertheless, the enthusiasm for track is growing each year, for 1938 saw some forty boys out for the sport, many of whom are freshmen and sophomores. This will insure future teams of promise. The season started out by seeing Winchester losing to Belmont, Concord, Maynard, and Lexington. Then with some high handed finesse by Coach Tom Maynard and some real fight from the boys, Winchester managed to eke out a second place in the Belmont Interscholastic Meet. After losing to Arlington in a rather sad manner, Winchester traveled to Fitchburg to compete in the Fitchburg Relays. Here, against ten schools, Winchester came through with a fourth place, scoring one point in the two mile relay. Anxious to win a meet, Winchester looked around for some soft competition, chose Danvers for the victims, and beat them for their first win. The leading tracksters are as follows: Half Mile —Bill Croughwell, Stan Puffer, Ben Schneider, Brad Darling, and Jack Finger. Best time—2:09. Mile —Bill Dolan, Dan Dineen, Joe Connolly, Fred Donahue, John MaePartlin, Dan Mahoney. Best time—4:58. Quarter Mile- —Sam Pilkington, Stan Puffer, iSteve Holmes.

Edward Kenney The year of 1937-38 with the Athletic Association has been highly success¬ ful actively, socially, and financially. At the first meeting of the executive board, the fall program was outlined and candidates chosen for social and publicity chairmen. The publicity committee was placed in the capable hands of Judy Hersom. The fall was busily spent with two rallies, an award assembly, a Fall Sports Dance, and the Fall Sports Banquet where the Wheeler-Mansfield Cups were awarded to Loretta Gaffney and Peter Sibley. A membership drive was carried out through the greater part of the year resulting in a total of 489 members. The sixth annual Vaudeville Show was the highlight of the winter program. The show was run by over one hundred enthusiastic members of the Associa¬ tion. A profit of $262.22 was realized because of the co-operation of the student body. Due to the surplus in the treasury, the executive board was able to give special awards to the championship football team, the girls ' and boys’ basket¬ ball teams and cheer leaders. The Association also bought new hockey tunics, football, boys basketball, boys’ baseball, and track uniforms. _Aberjona Staff «So(3� Jack Finger, Editor-in-Chief Lincoln Grinclle, Assistant Editor Samuel M.

Lincoln Grindle Vice President . Bradford Darling Secretary . Vera Snyder Treasurer . Frances Glidden The Science Club has had another interesting year. This year we tried to emphasize the fact that all students in the school are welcome to member¬ ship whether or not they take any science course, provided that they are willing to take an active part in meetings and activities. Although several attempts to visit the Boston University Observatory were foiled by cloudy weather, interesting and informing talks were given by students who have astronomy for a hobby. Demonstrative experiments and movies were given at the meetings on pressure, spectroscopy, manufacturing of chemicals, blueprints, and static electricity. A very interesting exhibit in tbe library of amateur photographs, candid and scenic, taken by students and faculty, was sponsored by the Science Club. ■ x % d -w .v,,, _ x; £ Alliance francaise o ED oCS Q Friday, November 12, brought about fifty eager and enthusiastic third- year French students back to Room 22 to join the ranks of or renew their mem¬ bership in the ever-popular L ’Alliance Francaise, under the direction of Miss Mackedon. At this first meeting, an election was held with the purpose of choosing a new President—the President-Elect, Jack Tead, having moved from Win¬ chester. Harold Fuller was elected President; the other officers previously elected were: Vice President, Bradford Darling; Secretary, Rita MeGonigle; Treasurer, Ben Schneider. The ‘‘Merry Christmas’’ spirit of the club was brought to light in the Christmas party, which was held in the art room. A short play, entitled Les Etrennes, was staged by Betty Ann Dickson and Willard Durham. Carol sing¬ ing likewise figured in the program. The topnotch feature of the afternoon, however, was the presence of jolly old “Pere Noel”—in the personage of Jack Finger—who presented each member with a gift. Refreshments appropriately climaxed the meeting. The March meeting was a novel one. Decked in colors aplenty, arrayed in all types of costumes—from that of a Campbell soup chef to that of a fair gypsy maiden—were the members in a gala costume party for the Mardi-Gras. Music was furnished by Bill Spaulding’s Orchestra, and general dancing was enjoyed. Refreshments, unusually plentiful, were served. So ends another year of L’Alliance Francaise. We hope that the classes following us will have equally enjoyable memories. traffic Squad Faculty Adviser .... Chief .

The efforts have been rather successful this year as the following will show. In February, word was received from the bank that High School students had the total amount of $27,092.32 on deposit. It is interesting to note that, with most freshmen, hanking never seems to go quite so well. However, when they become sophomores and juniors, and finally seniors, the hanking habit, has become established and rarely do the upper-classmen fail. Whether one’s banking account amounts to as much as $500 or to just a few cents, each pupil leaves this High School with the habit of saving and banking, a principle that gives security.

Shirley Somerby The Dramatic Society has had rather a busy year considering that our director, Miss Bailey, is separated from us by being down at the Wadleigh. For the first half of the year, before Christmas, there were experimental classes in chorus speaking. This was a new idea, but both classes (one for boys and one for girls) were well attended. Under Mr. Maynard’s direction the one-act play On Vengeance Height • was produced for an assembly program. The cast included Joan Worthen, Anne Rivinius, Herbert Rutledge, and John Kishler. Under Miss Bailey’s direction, the freshmen produced, for the Christmas assembly, the play. Is Santa Claus a Fraud? Submerged, a very tense and exciting one-act play, was presented at a May assembly. This play, too, was directed by Miss Bailey. The cast included Samuel Crabtree, Richard MacFarland, James Weaver, Emmons Ellis, Wallace Howard, and Carl Bolter. Serving on the production staff were Harold Parish, Shirley Somerby, Jean Fowler, and Gale Angas. A play for the annual get-to-gether is in the offing. junior c I ed (dross Officers: President .

Tonight the graduating class of 1938 is particularly fortunate in having the opportunity to commemorate one of the most significant anniversaries in the history of our country, the 150tli year of the Constitution of the United States of America. It is extremely difficult for us to conceive of a time when our country was without a secure foundation and could not command the respect of foreign powers. But there was just such a period. When the Treaty of Peace officially ending the American Revolution was signed, thirteen colonies were given their independence from a war-weary Great Britain. America was free! However, during the years that followed, which have been appropriately called the “critical period,” the new states became thirteen quarreling units, jealous of their own rights and opposing any efforts to organize a strong central government. So desperate was the situation that certain groups even talked of submitting to British control. Great Brit¬ tain watched all this with considerable interest, believing she might still regain her lost colonies. At this time foreign countries did not care to make treaties with so loose and feeble a government. As Washington said, “We are one nation today, and thirteen tomorrow; who will treat with us on these terms?” Thoughtful men, both in and out of public life, realized the seriousness of existing conditions and their inevitable results. ' Consequently a convention was called to meet in Philadelphia, the scene of so many previous meetings of importance, to decide upon a new Constitution, or at firs t, as it was thought, to revise the then impractical existing government. We must remember that there were no airplanes, railroads, or four lane highways in those days. The delegates, representing New England, the Mid¬ dle States, and the South, gathered slowly, state by state, traveling in stage coaches over narrow dirt roads. This group of fifty-five men, who met at the appointed time to consider the momentous problem of devising a Constitution for the nation, was the most distinguished which has ever gathered on the continent. The character, ability, and broad mental attainments of these men would be hard to equal. Many years later Janies Madison wrote of that convention: “I feel it my duty to express my profound and solemn conviction that there was never an assembly of men charged with a great and arduous trust, who were more pure in their motives, more exclusively and anxiously devoted to the object committed to them than were the members of the Federal Convention of 1787.” Of that outstanding group Washington was the most distinguished. For as well as being a great general, he was the best known and most admired citi¬ zen of his time, lie represented the oldest and largest colony, Virginia. lie had led the army to victory, handed back his commission to Congress, and refused to take compensation for his services. He could have retained the army and made himself dictator. Everyone knew it. No wonder he was held in reverence by all classes. Washington had almost refused to attend this meeting, believing perhaps that it would be fruitless. However, two of his irginia friends, James Madison and Edmund Randolph, realizing the confi- dence his presence would bring, persuaded him to go. At every town people greeted him with shouts of welcome. As lie entered Philadelphia, a cavalcade met him; church bells rang and thousands greeted their distinguished guest with enthusiasm. It is, therefore, both fitting and natural that so respective a man should be chosen president of the convention. It was only through his dignity, his kindly spirit, and his recognized wisdom that he was able to per¬ form so difficult a task. James Madison, justly called the “Father of the Constitution”, was quiet and unassuming, but foremost in debate. He was a tireless worker, a solid thinker, and even at thirty-six had more accurate and complete knowledge of colonial affairs than any other man in the Union. A colleague once saitl of Madison, “Everyone seems to acknowledge his greatness. In the management of every great question he took the lead.” lie was also the secretary of that convention. Night after night during those four hot months, he faithfully made a record of each day’s proceedings. Little did he then realize how important his work would be in the history of the country! It was only through his writings that any accurate information concerning that memor¬ able meeting was ever made public. Alexander Hamilton was the moving force of that convention. He was one of those who had worked, sacrificed, and suffered with Washington at Valley Forge. Hamilton had a will of his own and an intellect without par¬ allel. He desired a strong central government with a king at the head, but this plan met with overwhelming disfavor. Hamilton’s most significant part in the Constitution was later in securing its ratification in New York state. The Pennsylvania d elegation, acting as host, was the largest. Benjamin Franklin, its most distinguished representative was eighty-one years old and the most experienced of the group. During his wide career as a statesman he had always promoted national union and championed the cause of the American colonies in France and England. At times when it seemed inevitable that the convention would break up without having accomplished its purpose, Franklin’s calm, conciliatory spirit was helpful in restoring harmony. When the Constitution was finished, no signature did so much as his to win popular confidence. James Wilson, also from Pennsylvania, was the most learned lawyer pres¬ ent. He was tall and distinguished looking, commanding the respect and confidence of all. He was active in business and considered by many to be second in importance only to Madison in the influence he held among his fellow members. We are proud to know that Massachusetts was well-represented at this historic assembly by Elbridge Gerry and Rufus King. Gerry was a dapper, pleasant fellow and one of the leading conservatives. King, on the other hand, was capable, efficient, and active as a speaker. Roger Sherman from Connecticut is another of whom we are justly proud, for he was born in Massachusetts. He often caused half smiles by his Yankee dialect, but he was a recognized speaker and a deep thinker. It was he who proposed the great compromise. These are but a few of the men whom we wish to honor tonight. They were all just, strong, capable men with great sincerity of purpose. They could not possibly conceive of our nation as it stands today, forty times larger in population and many thousand times greater in wealth, but they had the foresight to make the Constitution a flexible document, capable of expanding to meet the needs of an ever changing world. For this reason it has stood the test of time, and today our American Constitution is the most venerable instru¬ ment of government in the world. Eleanor Jenkins yl jY(ore (perfect cilnion Men have prophesied that our Constitution would be but a temporary document, that it would not be able to withstand the test of years. Yet one hundred and fifty years have elapsed since the signing of this charter of hu¬ man rights and liberties, and it still remains, giving every indication that it will remain, the supreme law of the land. Our forefathers started on a difficult and uncharted course. Their Ship of State was not strongly constructed, and soon they discovered that it had sprung a leak and was sinking fast. A violent storm threatened. Danger signals sounded wildly throughout the country. In answer to the call came a body of fifty-five men, who immediately advised that there be built a new Ship of State which would rescue them from their distress. Thus these men, the representatives of twelve independent states, realizing the magnitude of the task before them, diligently applied themselves to the work of drawing up a new Constitution. To agree on an instrument of gov¬ ernment as far-reaching as the Constitution was no simple matter, yet these delegates of the Constitutional Convention showed remarkable willingness in considering the other fellow’s point of view, weighing it. in the light of reason, and then cooperating. They realized the necessity of forgetting their petty differences, of casting aside their local interests, and of dismissing their selfish views in order that the nation as a whole might benefit. Consequently, every provision passed through the stage of careful debate and painstaking consid¬ eration. Perhaps the great spirit of compromise at this time might best be exem¬ plified in the matter of representation in Congress. Naturally the larger states such as Virginia, New York, Pennsylvania, and Massachusetts, advocated a plan whereby representation should be according to population, while the smaller states firmly believed in equal apportionment. With such a wide rift in opinion, it was indeed difficult to arrive at an understanding. It was at this point that Benjamin Franklin made one of his characteristic speeches which came like a cooling breeze into the Convention. In this speech he urged harmony, union, and compromise. “When a broad table is to be made,” he said, “and the edges of the planks do not fit, the artist takes a little from both, and makes a good joint. In like manner here both sides must part with some of their demands.” Accordingly, the larger states were pacified by being granted proportional representation in the House of Rep resentatives; the smaller states were made to feel that they would be on an equal footing by being accorded equal representation in the Senate. Many similar compro¬ mises were made during the course of the Convention, but this is called the “Great Compromise” of the Constitution. With the arrival of mid-September, 1787, and with the draft of the pro¬ posed Constitution completed, thirty-nine men in knee breeches, silk stockings, and ruffled shirts stood around in conversational groups, each awaiting his turn to annex his signature to the parchment that was to become the political religion of this nation. The effort put forth by these men in perfecting a system of government that was to safeguard the rights of the people, deriving its just powers from them, was really remarkable. Day after day during the sweltering summer months these builders toiled on, combining skill and work¬ manship to produce a masterpiece that has been without parallel in history. Next came the task of submitting it to the states for ratification. As the people were studying the draft, two distinct movements developed, one in support of it, the other in opposition. Wherever people gathered, whether for town meetings, church, or gossip at the country stores, the topic was a universal one. A spirited contest ensued. Campaigns raged. The land re¬ sounded with speeches both for and against adoption. The most eloquent orators of the day came forward and urged the people to delay no longer in ratifying this document. A shower of pamphlets on both sides fell upon tin 1 country. The most famous of these, THE FEDERALIST, in which Alexander Hamilton, John Jay, and James Madison pointed out the benefits to he derived from this new government, awakened the nation to the fact that the Constitu¬ tion was safe for the people and at the same time advantageous for the states. In Massachusetts excitement was tense. A feverish debate lasted for nearly a month. Fear of losing individual rights was the chief ground for opposition. But on condition that a bill of rights, guaranteeing personal lib¬ erty, he added as amendments, the opponents finally gave way. With this provision did Massachusetts as the sixth state give her assent to this document. And within the surprisingly short period of seven months, the required num¬ ber of states had acknowledged the Constitution as the fundamental law of the land. Today it remains a living document, for embodied in it are the prin¬ ciples of freedom and justice which have made our nation great. Its adoption signaled the birth of a new system of government in this country—a democ¬ racy in a republic. May future generations, confronted with the complex problems of their day, take encouragement from the fact that our forefathers, encountering similar problems, had the strength, the will, the foresight to stand united in a single purpose of government by proclaiming in the noble words of the preamble: “We the people of the United States, in order to form a. more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.” Rita McCIonigle Our c Debt of gratitude Everyone should remember that this country is made up of individuals. We should remember that it is run by individuals, and that the intent and purpose of its founder ' s was, that our government should operate for the benefit of the individual citizen. Too often the great size and the highly organized development of our nation leads us to despair of even being recognized as an integral part of its operation, or of having a share of the responsibility which is due us. Such apparent insignificance is not justified, yet it is the point of view taken by many, for we forget that it takes many parts to make up a whole, and to function properly, each part must bear an equal share of the burden. Therefore, let us today as American citizens take pride in our citi¬ zenship. On this day of commemoration we are not celebrating the antiquity of this nation; for, among the nations of the earth, we stand with the youngest. Ours is not a nation which glitters with pomp and ceremony, for the purpose of dazzling its citizens, or one which struts before other nations like a bully, conscious of its power. We Americans can feel justly proud that our policy in dealing with other countries, has been in the past and continues to be in the present, one of a peacemaker and a guardian of the rights of mankind. Although we are young, as a country, the constitution under which we have functioned, for this century and a half, is older than that of any other democratic nation which has existed in the world, either past or present. It was drawn up in an age when nine-tenths of the population lived by agricul¬ ture; industry was still in its infancy. Today the population has increased by forty times and the area of the country under our flag is more than twelve times greater. From an agricultural nation, we have become increasingly industrial, with a degree of efficiency and modernization never dreamed of by those who framed the constitution. It is a truly remarkable reflection upon the excellence of its construction and the foresight of its authors. Its liberal principles have made it adaptable to the economic, as well as to the political changes, which have taken place. It remained basically the same through the period of westward expansion, ’and after the Civil War the states were able to reunite under that same document making but three amendments to it. Many people believe today that a constitutional form of government is undergoing its severest test. It is believed that the intricate and complex problems which are growing out of the modern industrial age cannot be dealt with successfully by the slow moving machinery of a constitutional form of government. However, are these problems more difficult to cope with than the problems of the past through which we have so admirably emerged? It is true that the tasks of government in these extraordinary times are very great, but so also should the patience, the energy, and the resourcefulness of our one hundred and thirty million people be great. For never has education been so widespread, nor has the means of transmitting knowledge to all and upon all subjects, been so universal and so perfect. And while the citizen in these days stands confronted with all kinds of questions calling for greater and graver responsibility, need we fear that that citizen will be unwilling or incapable of shouldering his share of the burden? We should not, for our debt of gratitude to those who have kept alive the spirit of democracy and have preserved the ideals of our forefathers, should be so great that no task would seem too difficult, if it were in the defense of the fruits of what Wash¬ ington called, “A noble experiment.” In a land of free speech and free press the radical faction cannot be ignored, for if we want to maintain a government of the people, we must prove to those who oppose us that this form of government is best. We should, therefore, look upon criticisms as valuable in that they renew the spirit of defense and provide a stimulus to those who have accepted without realizing it the benefits which we have derived from this most excellent government. A wholly defensive stand is not the way to regard criticisms. Accepting proof of errors and striving to correct them Is far better than upholding a principle whether it be right or wrong. Probably the greatest man ever to assume the responsibility of judging the powers of the constitution was John Marshall. He was a true American citizen and had experienced all the trials of the organizers and leaders of this country. He suffered with Washington at Valley Forge and had a sense of duty to his country which gave him the spirit and will to give to this nation his best efforts in the field of law. The constitution seemed not so much to rise under his hands to its full stature, as to be gradually unveiled by him, till it stood revealed in the harmonious perfection of the form which its framers had designed. We should be truly grateful for this heritage which has been passed to us and which is ours to uphold and further develop. Now, as we take over this responsibility, we should remember that it has been a result of experience and practice which has long since tested its worth, and that it represents tin safeguard from tyranny and oppression of all people of our land.
