E IIWARD TQOMASKO, EmII'ND VINIQR ADVERTISEMENTS MAYO CUHEN HELEN FRASER ALICE CUNNICLLY NIOLLY RUSEN I Four J EDITORIAL During our four years of high school, we have pursued about sixteen subjects, and in each of these sixteen subjects we have amassed a large amount of detailed information or data. To be sure, a certain portion of this material will be useful in specific and practical concerns of life, but another and larger portion will quickly be forgotten. Yet, in the long run, it will little matter whether we remember or forget this data. The import- ant thing for us will have been that in the pursuit of these subjects we have come to see the necessity for a liberal point of view, and that we have learned to practice the scientific method. Windham High has struggled to develop in us character, judgment, and tolerance. She has endeavored to show us that our every thought, word, or deed reflects us. Judge not, therefore, that ye be not judged. Now that we must leave our Alma Mater, let us strive always to remember the essence of her teachings. Let us ever be open-minded-hold our opinions tentatively, always ready to modify them or substitute others as further experience or knowledge shows them to be false. Let us cultivate a ques- tioning attitude that is eager to gain whatever knowledge will deepen our understanding. Out in the world of every-day life, let us be broad and scientific-minded. Even in our smallest judgment let us be sure that we have considered all known information concerning this matter at hand, that we have regarded it from all possible angles, and that no mean prejudices bias us. Then and only then shall we have gained a truly liberal education. Hiauax D. PoLLARD I Five J wx MV.

Uf I VY ORA T1 ON INCII the beginning of civilivation the ivy plant has been endowed ., v with religious significance. To the Egyptians it was the earthly representative of Osiris, the god they worshipped as creator-to the Greeks it stood for Bacchus, the joyous god of the festival of harvest--and the Romans used it entwined with laurel to crown their poets at the spring and winter celebrations. So the ivy has come down to us, the symbol of creation, of growth, of the supreme in human effort and achievement. To us, this ivy plant has a more personal significance. lt stands for the years we have spent at Windham High School-the new ideas and ideals we have gained. The unfading green of the ivy leaves suggest the beneficial influence which has been given to us through the effort of our teachers and principal, and which will never cease to guide us in the years to come. The ivy is tenacious, gaining a foothold and sending forth its gallant green banners in the face of the most adverse conditions. So may we go through life, undaunted by misfortune, constantly pressing forward to the realization of our ambitions and ideals.

Here, opposed to us, was the Faculty and, also, those mighty players who are chosen every year for All-American dis- honors, Laziness, and Antagonism-for-Study. Strange to say, we did not consider the latter two at all dangerous, but directed our hardest shots at the Faculty, never losing a chance to use elbow or knee on them if the opportunity to do so without retribution presented itself. The first quarter we spent in getting used to the feel of the ball, and in learning the fundamentals of the game and Good Sportsmanship. Green and inexperienced though we were, a few of us already showed promise of greatness to come. Several of our number brought down hard by those deadly tacklers, Laziness and Antagonism-for-Study, were either carried off the field protesting that they could continue the game, or lacked the courage to face again one of those bone-crushing tackles and left of their own accord. The second quarter underway, we proceeded with more confidence. Some of us gained ground slowly, inch by inch, by slow, tremendous, heart- breaking line-plunging, others by brilliant, loose-hipped, dodging and end- runs. fPerhaps it is apropos here to remark that the Faculty gave more at- tention to the former than to the latter.j In both quarters the Faculty attempted to make long gains by tricky forward passes from 'Mid-year' and 'Final' formation. Each time we succeeded in batting the ball down so that no appreciable gain resulted. There were but few injuries in this quarter that necessitated the permanent withdrawal of a player from the game. With all undesirables weeded out, we were now a picked lot, and the third quarter not only found us ready, but eager to renew the battle. lt was I Fourteen J me Womgoee not so diflicult to gain ground and we pushed the worn-out opposition slowly backward toward their own goal-posts. It was at this point in the game that we made the amazing discovery fit brought us no great pleasurej that the Faculty not only were not playing against us, but actually were helping us to combat those whom we had thought their teammates, Laziness and Antagonism-for-Study. Noticing that our playing was not so keen and our enthusiasm for the game was waning, the Captains of our team decreed a time-out, during which the Junior Prom could be attended, after which we returned to the fray with a new zest. The light of victory shone in our eyes as the fourth and last quarter began. We were literally within the shadows of the enemy goal-posts and knew that we had to win. No one or anything could stop us. With a last daring, driving offensive we pushed the ball over the last white line which lay between us and victory. As a fitting reward each one who had finished the game was given a round of merriment including the Senior Banquet, Senior Reception, and Class Nightg after which were awarded strips of parchment known as Hdiplomasf' Now, Class of Thirty, with minds sharpened and bodies toughened by this hard-earned victory, let us go out and show the VVORLD that Wli CAN PLAY THE GAME.

DELPHIS BACON Willimantic General A bit of frolic now and then Is relished by the best of men. Del is one of those individuals who is clever enough to read a two hour's English assignment in the first twenty minutes. He has been very successful in teaching the art of wrecking desks to the innocents of 21. The business world has already called to Del and we know he will always Carry On in his usual fashion. IRENE BABCOCK Willimantic College Course Her bright darts of wit Fall like dewdrops everywhere. Abby keeps us up-to-date on the humor- ous side of school life. She can play the piano too.

Harry is a good fellow, especially accom- plished in the art of fooling. He is good- natured almost to a fault, and will take any amount of razzing with a smile. Latin Club, French Club. VIVIAN BERGERON Mansfield Commercial Stedfa.st and unswervingu Eyes fixed on a distant goal Viv is little Miss Efficiency. Her pop- ularity lies in her willingness to help anyone no matter what may be occu- pying her time. If her aspiration is to do well in the Business World we predict that she will reach the top step of the ladder. She was the iirst commercial senior to re- ceive a permanent position. 1 Thu ty-Two J A 1191 ,s,:sn X , WHS, ROSE BOROVICKA Willington Commercial Straight forward and unswerving, Eyes fixed on a distant goal. Rose is a good student, but she loves her fun, too. She is pleasant to everyone. We have noticed that she makes a point of always knowing her American History. STOWELL BURNHAM North Windham Classical The pomp of a Roman senator The mind of a Congressman! Out of the wilds of North Windham came our Senior class president. Incidentally, Two-Shot hath one wicked line. It has something to do with criminals. But mark ye, he hath delved into the pursuits of stud- ies as well as of notorious people.

ETHEL BOWMAN Willimantic General Her ways are ways of pleasantnessf' The Model School gave us Ethel for which we are truly glad. Although quiet and re- tiring with most of us, she has a number of pals with whom she is always seen. Surely, the future holds success for Ethel. MAYO COHEN Willimantic Classical This was the noblest Roman of them all. As the best things are often contained in small packages, so is the ability and good nature to be found in small fellows. He was also alarmingly successful in raising pools and guessing the lucky number.

There's nothing she wouldn't do for you, for Daisy is just one of these good- natured folks. Next year in the business world we wish her the best of luck. 1 Th11ty-Three 1 uf 5 rl W lesser ALICE BREHANT Willimantic Commercial Straight forward and answering eyes fixed o-n a distant goal. Everyone in the W. H. S. Bank has a weakness for curly hair, for Alice's curly hair in particular. But those curls are deceiving, for hidden beneath them is a large amount of common sense and judg- ment. Orchestra 13,435 Art Club 12, 3, 45. OLIVER DAVIS Willington Commercial He is not of many words, but cheerful. Oliver doesn't have much to say to any- one. He keeps his opinions to himself and treads the path of the plodder. But he sure- ly knows how to type. RUTH CAREY Willimantic Commercial All kin' 0' smily roun' the lips Ruth is aways good-natured with a wil- lingness to help.

ALVIN GALLAGHER Willimantic General Genial his smile as summer sun And fi1'm his handclaspf' Alvin's enthusiastic manner has caused him to be a most popular member of the class. He is especially noted for being able to make fine guesses at the questions asked in History class. A MARY CASCIO Willimantic General Good nature always wins the heart. Mary's modesty keeps us from knowing about her fine marks until we happen to catch a glimpse of her report card. She is so good-natured that we like to hear her pretend to scold some one.

Ralph never gets to school early in the morning but he makes up for it when he does arrive. He certainly can drive a car, which adds not a little to his popularity with the fair sex. ALICE CASEY Wlllimantic Commercial It's better to be short and shine Than to be great and cast a shadow. Alice has a snappy retort always ready for all questions thrown her way. We notice that everybody in her neighborhood wears a big grin when she starts telling 'em. She can be proud of her scholastic record during her four years at Windham. MYRON HADFIELD South Windham Commercial A very quiet, orderly, and industrious chap Myron isn't heard from very often. We think perhaps he is bashful. However, in some people, bashfulness is an asset. LILLIAN CHARTIER Willimantic General Fair as a star when only one Is shining in the sky. Lil's demure manner has caused some of us to miss the twinkle in her eye. She is one of our talented musicians, and has given us many concerts. Who has forgotten her playing in sophomore gym? tThxrty-F'iveJ THELMA CLARK Willimantic Classical Peace is the fairest form of happiness. Thelma always wears a cloak of reserve. To be with her gives one a feeling of calm that reduces very soon our small worries. KENDAL HARROLD Willimantic General There's something rather earnest in his look There's something rather honest in his deed Good looking, energetic and friendly, Ken- dal is always willing to help, As our base- ball manager he has proved himself very reliable.

Windham will lose a good student when she graduates. JAMES HENDRY Williniantic Classical I'll work hard-but not too hard-- To gain my end. Jimmie, one of the wrecking crew, dwells among the immortal strong-arm crowd of 21. He has interested himself in criminals, their adventures, and their mo- tives, and has written many articles con- cerning one Two-Shot.

CLAYTON HUNT Columbia Science He brewed amid a maze of coils And pipes and tubes-a student of Black Art. We call your attention to this gentleman in whose hectic eye the fire of genius burns.

CARLYLE JOHNSON South Coventry General Carlyle is never a minute ahead of time. but he seems to gauge his time just right. How he manages, no one knows. Full of fun we find him always, yet serious in tho pursuit of his studies. MARGARET CROSTHWAITE Willimantic Commercial Still waters run deep. Margaret looks very demure, but who can tell-especially when her green-fpardon usl- hazel eyes have such merry glints in them. These same glints have proved very fascinating to certain persons we could mention. L Thu ty-Seven I sf 2 ri W an ERNESTINE DELUDE Willimantic Commercial As happy and gay as the day is long. Ernie tries to kid us into thinking that she is very quiet and studious. However, we have all been put wise by the merry gleam in her eyes. EDGAR JOHNSON Storrs General A little rough-house now and then Is relished by the best of men. A hail fellow well met, Edgar is one of the most likable fellows in the school. His car has taken his friends and him places a good many times, but it has been with a great deal of effort that they have re- turned. ROSE DZWONCZYK Mansfield Classical I see the serious side of things Rose is one of our ambitious Latin stu- dentsg the anxious frown on her forehead as she bends over her book bears witness to this fact, Still, she has found time to make many friends among us. Latin Club C453 Class Statistics f4J. MORRIS KRUG Willimantic Classical And still the wonder grew, that one small head could carry all he knew. Morris came up from Natchaug in 1926, and he has been up and coming ever since. That is, in every way but one-he has gained little in size. However, though small, he is mighty: and we expect to hear great things of him at C. A. C. MARGARET FOOTE Willimantic General Genteel in personage, Conduct and equipagef' Margaret is so quiet that one hardly knows she is around, but her good-natured diligence and her winning smile are well- known to a few. Next year she will con- tinue her studies at Normal School. C Thirty-Eight J xl? 2' iq .MY 21.3. 30 HELEN FRASER Willimantic Commercial A shrewd little lassie Is she Scotch? And how! In every tra- ditional way except with money. One of our champion bluffers--but really there is no need of her bluffing as she has ably demonstrated by her record in Room 25. HARRY LARKIN Willimantic Scientific Hear ye not the hum of mighty workings? Although Harry may not be the valedic- torian of his class, we all know him as a very successful student. There's success to a future electrician, for Harry is going to the General Electric School next year. Latin Club 11, 233 Dramatic Club 1433 1 Dulcy Friendly Enemies 3. CLAIRE FRINK Coventry Commercial My eyes make pictures when they are shut. Eyes? Yes-that's the first thing that one notices when Claire arrives. Always busy and gayly murmuring, she reminds one of a little bee. Also, she is our valedictorian, which makes us admire her besides also adoring her.

WILLIAM LENNON Willimantic Classical He had an ordered system for each thing- And step' by step, on little things he rose. Billy belongs to that class in school that says little but thinks much.

Annual Board 1433 Friendly Enemies 143. HAZEL GILLETTE Spring Hill General Oh, but her laughter was jolly.

Glee Club f2, 3, 433 French Club 12, 3, 453 Dramatic Club 141. HAROLD LESTER Willimantic General And would on earth there stood Some more of such a frame. Harold has had two principal aims in high school. They are: Q13 to play basket- ball and football, and Q23 to see how little studying he could do. In both of these he has met with success. For as center on the basketball he was a star, and he has cap- ably handled his studies. EULALIE JENKINS Willimantic General Thou speakest wiser than thou art aware of. Eulalie's great enjoyment of history class has made her famous throughout the class. She intends to begin training next year for a nurse. Good luck! HARRY LEVINE Willimantic Classical Words! Words! And yet again, more words But linked with crystal thought. Hash is a keen rival of Demosthenes, the orator of old. Those who have heard his orations in 21 during fourth period will never forget the awe-inspiring way in which they were presented. He also played creditably on the baseball team as pitcher. HELEN JOHNSON Windham Commercial 'lhis is a maid of quet ways. Helen is a quiet, rather demure person, whose willingness makes us certain that she will be successful in the fullillment of her desire to be a private secretary. Q Forty J sf A ww e. f ESTHER HANSEN West Willington General So healthy, sound, and clear, and whole. In a quiet, unobtrusive way Esther goes about whatever confronts her.

He is a very quiet fellow who thinks more of what he says than of how much. This is especially true during the sixth period. ROSE HUBAC Scotland Commercial Speech is great, but silence is greater. Scotland has a student to be proud of in demure Rose. Though studious in habit, she is a gay companion. ALEX MISEVITH Hampton General His strength was as the strength of ten. Alex stepped into the spotlight last fall when his fine football playing attracted much attention. Always ready to help, we feel sure that he will succeed next year in whatever he attempts.

X' EVA KIMBALL Scotland Classical A maid there was of quiet ways. Eva silently joined our ranks four years ago. Her name on the honor roll soon at- tracted our attention and everyone began to ask who this walker-away with the laurels might be. Yet even now we don't know her as well as we would like to. She intends to study music next year so be prepared to hear great things of Eva. CHESTER MOSELEY North Windham Commercial Tall and fair and good to look upon. During his four years, Chet has man- aged a good many things with decided suc- cess. His willingness to help and his busi- ness ability will carry him far in the bus- iness world. RUTH KINNEY Hebro-n General Her quiet courtesy endeared her to all Ruth has one of the sunniest dispositions in the whole school. No one has ever seen her in a very serious mood. Her smiles even break through the shadows of exam. time. HOMER L. ODELL Hampton Commercial The great silent man. Ho-mer is active in sports. We know him especially for his fine work on the basket- ball team this past season. The girls know him as a wonderful dancer too. Homer ex- pects to go to some other school next year. Basketball Team 141. PAULINE LANDECK Chaplin Commercial I like to know the why of things. Pauline aspires to be the secretary of some successful business man. Her amia- bility, and her alacrity in asking questions in history class lead us to think that she will some day be a leader in the field she has chosen. C F01f,V-TWO J sl? 5 1'WYH+'sU ROSE LAVIGNE Willimantic General She is just the quiet kind Who' nature never varies. Petite Rose with her curly black hair and big eyes is very popular with the mem- bers of the class. A diligent worker and faithful helper she is destined for success. HOMER OEHLERS Village Hill General He preferred to be good, rather than to seem so. Homer seems to be the big attraction for all the fair sex in Room 25. He spends l1is time helping everyone-and he knows the ancient art of blushing to perfection. CLAIRE LOMBARDO Willimantic Commercial As happy as the day is long. Claires' happy-go-lucky nature makes her everyones' friend. We know she will be- come the successful business woman she wants to be.

Next year she plans to attend Connecticut Agricultural College. Q Forty-Three J A W' V x ,... .M 41. Qjf MARGARET MORAN Willimantic Commercial In a contest of wits I delight.

WALTER PHILLIPS North Windham General Young fellows will be young fellows. Walter has not engaged in many of the various activities of Windham. He believes, it would seem, that French class is the time for play and he surely can play. Next year will find him at Worcester Tech. MYRTLE MORSE Willimantic Commercial She's calm, deliberate, dignified and leisurely. Myrtle has developed many of the char- acteristics we believe a practical business woman should acquire. This has been evi- denced by the gifts she has twice received in appreciation of the advertisements she has written. RUSSELL POTTER Willimantic Commercial Good humor and generosity carry the day. Rusty has been a successful basketball manager. He has accredited himself well as secretary, both for Lyceum and for the Senior Class. But for all that he loves to slacken up the ropes and let himself slip behind, taking his time in catching up again. ANNA MOSNY Hebron Commercial Speech is silver, silence golden. Anna certainly can take down shorthand, and how she knows her typewriter! She has learned that conscientious effort make for accuracy-the chief asset of a good secretary. 1 Forty-Four 3 ELSIE NORMANDIN Willimantic Commercial And a wholesome merry smile. Elsie has blue eyes, curly hair, freckles and an everready smile. Her love of both outdoor and indoor sports has not interfered with her scholastic standing. French Club 13, 433 Dramatic Club 1433 Dramatic Club Dance 143. SAMUEL PRICE Hebron General Men of few words are the best men. Sammy may be seen hurrying down the corridors with his bright green sweater. He has also written essays on circnses and such things. HELEN D. POLLARD Willimantic Classical All the world's a stage. Helen's gays impetuosity and ready sym- pathy have endeared her to all with whom she has come in contact. Because of her artistic ability she has been cast in two important roles in the plays Bah, and Friendly Enemies.

EARL ROSE Coventry Commercial Play ball-play ball! We know Earl for his pleasant, good- natured smile. Then, too, his football play- ing was noticeably good. We send him forth with the best of luck for next year. ANNIE RATHBUN Hebron Commercial Spirited, frail, naively bold Her hair a ruffled crest of gold. If you are thinking of eyes of blue and curly golden hair, of a sweet and gay per- sonality, of a gentle courteous manner and a friend who will be true blue-we are sure you are thinking of Annie. 1 Forty-Five 3 C 5 M W 11's-'SU LUCIE RIORDAN Willimantic Classical None knew thee but to love theeg None named thee but to praise. Luce is the type of brunette that makes us wonder why blondes are said to be preferred-for in this case they certainly are not. Besides being a lovable friend she is dependable and always willing to do her share.

Actor, basketball player, dancer, ticket seller, and an all-around good fellow, he has become very popular. He has already started his business career for which we predict a brilliant future. ALIDA ROYCE Willington General I prefer the slow but sure way. Quiet and unassuming, Alida has gone through high school pleasant to everyone. She is very excellent in basketball besides also in her studies. MARY SAFIN without Mary? 1 Forty-Six J Willimantic Commercial A quaint precision rules her ways. Mary is a studious girl with an engaging frankness of manner. She always seems to know the right time to work and the right time to play. Can anyone imagine Room 25 HELEN SAFRANEK Willington General Thou art gifted with much that is line. Helen's continuous efforts in her work have won for her the honor of salutatorian of our class.

A good bas- ketball player and equally good in his studies, he is headed toward prosperity. BELLE SEPLOWITZ North Windham Scientific Useful, amiable, serviceable in all honest, unpretending ways. Besides her interest in science, Belle is one of our most capable art students. She is noted for her beautiful and precise work- manship. Next year she is planning to at- tend Normal School. Art Club 12, 3l3 Dramatic Club 141. DOROTHEA SHORTELLE Willimantic Commercial The secret of success is constancy to purpose. Dot always has a good time when she goes to Providence3 and she's so secretive about it! We wonder. Maybe that's the reason why the devastating blondes of Room 25 fail to get her excited. French Club 12, 413 Dramatic Club 141. 1 F01 ty-Seven J FRANCES SMITH Willimantic Classical Her eyes are bright, her lips alert. Dickens lived in his characters, so does Fran our class novelist, who weaves dainty adventures of heart for a Certain dark eyed man. She excels in brains, and is eloquent in conversation. She will return next year for a post-graduate course. Latin Club 13, 413 Dramatic Club 1413 Art Club 12, 395 Wyndonian Board 141. GAZELLA STANECK Hebron Commercial A quiet little lady is she. Giz is not one of these tempestuous girls, she's soft-spoken and quiet of man- ner. She aspires to be someone's secretary, and if it depends upon her typing ability, she will succeed. She has her own particular pals and seems to enjoy their company. HARRY SHERMAN Chaplin General A nice unparticular man. Harry has a gruff but genial good nature. He has been content to remain in the back- ground and watch the others frown over their troubles. ANNA SUBISKY Windham General Let no man disturb my peace. Anna is a faithful student. She has worked hard and deserves credit. We are sorry we don't know her a little better but nevertheless we wish her good luck. LILLIAN SULLIVAN Willimantic General Fond of work, fond of play, Brightly cheerful all the day. Lil is always good naturedg even tests don't seem to bother her very much. She was one of our cheer leaders last year, leading the boys to victory. 1 Forty-Eight J x -M tug il Ur ELIZABETH SWANSON Mansiield Commercial Her quiet courtesy endeared her to all. Tall and stately-a peaches and cream complexion-pretty blond hair-that's Elizabeth. Although she is very quiet, her generous smile has won its way into every- one's heart. HARRIET SWANSON Mansfield Commercial Life is real-life is earnest. Harriet is another one of our popular blondes. She is quiet-both in action and voice. Capable and conscientious, she will find her goal to be great. THOMAS SROKA Wllimantic General Courtesy is the mark of a gentleman. Tommy is one of the best all-round ath- letes we have. As a three letter man he has achieved honor and distinction in both football and basketballv-besides being cap- tain of the baseball team. JEANETTE TARDIFF Scotland General -courteous to all, but intimate with few. Jeanette is one of our earnest students engrossed in the mysteries of Room 16. Anal Wonder of Wonders she still has time to flash to us a ready smile. This is the more entrancing, because of her wonderful rosy complexion. MIRIAM TAYLOR Coventry General The mildest manners and the gentlest heart. Miriam is one of those hard working art students. Between art and history she has been very busy indeed. She is going to be a nurse-and they say there is no romance in nursing. 1 For ty-Ninel at? 5 iw W an MERLYN TOWNE Willimantic General There shall be music wherever she goes.

EDMUND VINER Willimantic Commercial I am very fond of the company of ladies. Although Eddie hasn't been with us very long, he has made a place in our friendships.

Membership in the club is not only of value to girls in this year's Home-Nlaking classes, but also gives those girls who have had the course in previous years an opportunity to continue their relationships with the Home- blaking departmentsg and to carry on some of the many interesting projects which it otlers. Plays have been written and given by club members at regular meetings, and a Christmas party was enjoyed at that season. Fnrulfy fldfviser ....MRs. BLANCHIQ lVlCCLUER President ..... .......

Windham won from Stonington and also Norwich, her greatest rival. A. Miseveth, and Slowick, played a great game at ends, at tackle Jor- dan, Bergeron, and VV. btliseveth played well: at guards, Blanchette, Twerdy. and Rose kept back many opposing men. Sroka played a steady game at center, Stemmons and Ferriner called the plays well at quarterback. The halfbacks, Luciani and Chase dashed round the ends for many gains. Captain Meikle, at fullback and quarterback was responsible for much of the team's success. For plunging the line and getting many long distance gains, he deserves great credit. The scores for the games played, are as follows: Chapman Tech Windham Westerly Windham Stonington Windham Bulkeley Windham Norwich Windham Bristol Windham Manchester lvindham Totals I Sixty-Eight b 19 WMQS' an 2, BASIVIBALL-NINETFEN THIRTY INDHAM, featuring a speedy nine composed of seasoned veterans and several promising newcomers, has every prospect for a success- ful season.
