History of the Class of 1934
By ADA SENIOR, NEDRA
PREECE. HELEN COBB
Contrary to the old tradition, the
Class of 1934, in order to avoid unnec-
essary confusion in the fall, entered
Sanford High School on June 8, 1930.
As the bell rang at live minutes of
eight, the corridors were thrown in-
to an uproar by such questions as,
"Where is my senior sister?” or
"Where do I go from here?” Thus
we. the Class of 1934, entered our
Alma Mater.
At our first class meeting, Wood-
row Vallely was unanimously elected
president for the ensuing year.
The Freshman Reception was held
on October 3. For us this was the
most important event of the year. The
girls spent the greater part of the af-
ternoon at the hairdresser's, while the
boys undoubtedly kept their mothers
on the run hunting for lost collar but-
tons and other articles. Needless to
say, excitement ran so high that few
ate a normal supper. The dresses were
most elaborate: evening modes were
adopted in nearly every case and car-
ried out to the last detail. Of course.
the boys were a little more sensible in
their manner of dress and appeared
very neat in their Sunday suits.
As we passed along the receiving
line to shake hands with the faculty.
our knees began to shake nervously.
and the smiles froze on our faces. Only
a moment, however; and the ordeal
was over. Then we were soon oc-
cupied by dodging one another’s feet.
Our high heeled, milky white, satin
slippers soon looked like coach dogs.
Though the evening passed all too
soon, it will live long in our memories.
During our freshman year was
formed the Girls’ Athletic Association,
to which any girl participating in some
sport was eligible. Besides taking part
in sports, the girls often held parties.
Some of these were attended by girls
only, while at other times boys were
favored with invitations. At these
parties, games and dancing were in-
dulged in with great enthusiasm.
The G. A. A. members enjoyed a
few hilarious hours at a Hard Times
Party held in the school gymnasium.
Prizes were awarded for the most ap-
propriate costumes. Coach Everett
surprised the girls with her excellent
portrayal of a gob.
Instead of having a social during
our freshman year, our class held a
picnic at the Kiwanis Camp at Loon
Pond. We found much pleasure in
playing games, swimming, ami danc-
ing: also in the queer little polliwogs
someone surreptitiously put down our
backs.
Just for fun. the freshmen of the
college preparatory English division
each planned a story in which he tried
to imitate the plot and style of a West-
ern "best seller.” The papers of Peter
Augustinus. James McKeon. Ruth
Shaw, and Woodrow Vallely were
chosen as the best. These four stu-
dents challenged four members of the
sophomore class to continue the story
—if they could. The sophomores in
turn challenged the juniors, and so on.
To provide interest in the “Iliad.”
this same English division built a mod-
el of the ancient city. Troy. There we
could see the gods leaving their home
on Mt. Olympus to aid the Greeks, the
Greek fleet lying at anchor, and the
city itself protected by a strong wall.
This helped us to understand the
Greeks ami their ideals, and it also
made the story more real.
On February 16. 1931. a general
English examination was given to all
four classes. In this our ranks were
outstanding. Forty freshman names
appeared on the honor roll, there-
by establishing an exceptional record
compared to that of the class of *33.
PAGE SEVENTEEN
The fourth annual gym exhibition
given by S. H. S. students was held at
the Sanford Town Hall. Our girls
gave a dumb-bell drill in which they
did especially well, and they received
many congratulations for their skill.
The boys took honors in their per-
formance of an Indian-club drill.
Our first social was held in our
sophomore year. The feature of the
evening was a short sketch entitled
"The Ladies’ Aid Meeting." Caroline
Hanscom also gave a humorous read-
ing, “Mark Antony’s Original Ad-
dress."
In the fifth annual gym exhibition,
the girls of our class gave a novelty
drill, consisting of Danish and Swed-
ish exercises. They were led by Yvette
Doiron. Barbara Shaffer, Laurette Val-
liere. Esther Porell, and Ada Senior.
Our hoys displayed their ability in a
dumb-bell drill. For the first time
since annual exhibitions have been
held, the drills were performed out-
doors.
In the Spear Speaking Contest.
held in April. 1932. Luther Avery, with
the selection “The Jumping Frog."
won the local decision and was also
chosen as county alternate in case that
Celia Sterne of Biddeford, the winner
of first place, should not attend the
State Contest. In the preliminaries
held at Sanford in 1933. Estella Pres-
cott won. with the selection “Captain
January.”
Another event of 1933 was the jun-
ior social. The entertainment con-
sisted of singing by the trio. Harold
Loubier, Carleton Libbey. and Dwight
Berard; vocal solos by Estella Prescott
ami Harold Loubier; and a piano solo
by Alfred Couturier.
The assembly conducted by the
junior office practice class in 1933
proved to be very successful. Miss
Cummings was highly praised for her
effective coaching of the play.
In 1931 the commercial class visited
Alfred jail, and the telephone and
printing offices in 1933. Also in 1933
with Miss Cummings. Miss Fuller, and
Mrs. Marion Ridley as chaperones, the
class held a house party at Annie
Chadbourne's camp at Ossipee Lake.
Swimming, a weenie roast, boating,
horse shoe games, and dancing were
enjoyed by all.
In our junior year, two new mem-
bers, Glenn Bland and L’la Libby were
added to our class ; anti Howard Little-
field. who had moved from Sanford to
Auburn in his freshman year, returned
at this time. At the beginning of our
senior year, we acquired another new
member. Romeo Gendron, who had
been attending Assumption Prepara-
tory School in Worcester, Massachu-
setts.
The first big event of our senior
year was the reception which we tend-
ered the freshmen and their par-
ents. After the guests had passed
down the receiving line, music was
furnished for dancing by Carl Broggi’s
orchestra.
In our senior year the Latin Club
was formed, to which all students at-
taining an average of ninety or above
were privileged to belong. Of the
class of '34. Helen Cobb, Louise Cow-
burn. Yvette Doiron. Caroline Hans-
com. Dorothy Littlefield, and Joseph-
ine Tinsley have been members. Jo-
sephine Tinsley has served as presi-
dent : Caroline Hanscom, as secretary;
and Dorothy Littlefield, as treasurer.
The commercial club during the
senior year also organized a club,
called the Commercial Aces. The fol
lowing officers were elected: presi-
dent, Warren Simpson ; vice-president,
Roland Adams; secretary - treasurer,
Byron Smith. It is hoped that this
year's club, like that of last year, will
be able to take a trip to Boston this
spring.
In the Home Economics Club, Ani-
ta Bourque served as president during
PAGE EIGHTEEN
her senior year. Nellie Tebbetts was
the secretary when she was a sopho-
more.
Several girls of our class have been
active members of the Sanford High
School Library Association. Estella
Prescott being president this year.
Others who belong are Barbara Shaf-
fer. who joined in her freshman year.
Anita Bourque, L la Libby, and Mil-
dred Williams.
Our class has been well represented
in the various musical organizations of
the school. Dwight Berard. Eugene
Gerry. Abraham Bshara. and Ernest
Fritz have been in the band all four
years. Lucius Stimson and Allied
C •uturier were also members of the
orchestra during their second year.
Both boys and girls have belonged
to the chorus, and Priscilla Hobbs and
Ruth Shaw have received letters for
their work in the glee club this year.
Those having held offices on the
Girls' Council are Josephine Tinsley,
who was treasurer when a sophomore.
secretary when a junior, and president
when a senior; Louise Cowburn, vice-
president when a junior; and Caroline
Hanscom, treasurer when a senior.
On the Boys’ Council. W illiam McKone
served as secretary during the junior
year; and Woodrow Vallely, as presi-
dent this year.
Several of our members have at-
tained distinction in various fields.
During our first year, one of our well
known classmates, Abraham J. Bshara
gained fame, we are proud to relate,
by the daring rescue of a child from
drowning. In our sophomore year,
Christo “Starky” Scferlis wrestled at
Old Orchard Beach, Maine, the light
heavyweight champion of Bates, ami
won the amateur prize, an alligator.
Also in 1932, Amedee Drouin, captain
of the baseball team, attained a batting
average of .714, the best in the Tele-
gram League. To add to the events
of '32, the Hockey Championship game
was won by our gallant little team.
W e were duly honored by each receiv-
ing an “II" and by having our pictures
in the "Red and White.” During this
same year, three of the most popular
boys in our class, Warren Simpson,
James McKeon, and W illiam McKone,
were included in the cast of the de-
lightful play “Penrod.”
Josephine Tinsley, one of our most
brilliant students, has greatly honored
the class by receiving the Goodall
Medal for two years in succession
This reward is given for attaining the
highest rank in the school. Miss Tins-
ley’s average in her sophomore year
was 96.42, while her average for her
junior year was 96.88.
Many members of our class have
attained distinction in the field of
dramatics. During our junior year,
three plays. ‘‘The Valiant,” “Never-
the-less." and “Grandma Pulls the
Strings” were presented. Tn these the
fidlowing students took part: Warren
Simpson. Barbara Shafter, Mildred
Williams. Christo Seferlis, Luther
Avery, and, Louise Cowburn. Three
one-act plays were given in our senior
year. Annie Chadbotirne. Mildred W il-
liams. Warren Simpson, and Philippe
Charette were the characters in “His
First Dress Suit”: Barbara Shaffer and
Estella Prescott were the seniors in
“Highness"; and Ada Senior, Carleton
Libbey. and Howard Littlefield, in
“Three Pills in a Bottle."
The last social to be held by our
class was on Friday. April 13, 1934.
In spite of dire predictions by the sup-
erstitious, the affair was most success-
ful. The entertainment consisted of a
short play and a dance marathon.
No history of the Class of 1934
would be complete without making
mention of our two cheer leaders,
Muriel Johnson and Yvette Doiron,
PAGE NINETEEN
who have faithfully performed their
duties during the last two years. Their
vivacious personalities and their unique
costumes are very striking, and they
call forth a great deal of pleasant
comment. Added to this, their good
nature and their faithfulness have cre-
ated much enthusiasm and furnished
great pleasure.
Thus we come to the end of the
four most happy years of our lives, and
“On we must go.
On into life
To treasure memories
Of our happy days
In Sanford 1 ligh.”

NIRA
By ULA LIBBY
The eagle signifies her strength;
All industry bears her seal,
As, unseen. Nira leads us on
To a new and better deal.
Her inarch is slow—so gradual
That oft we lose all heart;
But Nira still reminds us
That we too must do our part.
Her success should not be questioned
For ’tis written in her eyes.
"By my hand again this nation
Triumphant shall arise.’’
So listen ; then you’ll catch her phrase
That will make Depression bow
If. with a patriotic shout.
You follow with “Buy Now.’*
MEMORIES
By C. MURIEL WORCESTER
When the sunset glows in splendor
From the valley in the W est
And the twilight falls and deepens
Round the school we love the best.
Then it is we stop and ponder
O'er the joys that we have known
And realize we are preparing
For a future all our own.
Every road must have a turning.
Every lane does have an end.
But we know not, cannot reckon
Toward what each pathway tends ;
It may lead us on to sorrow,
It may lead us on to bliss.
But our school life here together
We are glad we did not miss.
It has been a deal of pleasure
To work at Sanford High ;
How the memories come thronging
As at last we say goodbye
To our classmates and our teachers.
And our hearts within us swell.
For we know that we are parting
From this school we love so well.
THE FACULTY IN VERSE
By A. ROLAND WILSON
In the office Mr. Purington’s found at

And also Miss Cummings, who’s never

Miss Tuttle is next, in one hundred and

And then comes Miss Fowler with XY

Miss Fuller presides o’er the typing
machines;
Nearby, in the gym. Coach Fallon is
seen;
Miss Folsom along with her freshmen
abides;
Math students Miss Preble successful-
ly guides;
Mrs. Clarke is at all times studious to
see;
Miss Lenfest in Latin shows verbs
must agree ;
Miss Philbrick in Home Economics is
good;
Miss Blaisdell, too. teaches clothing
and food;
Textile work is directed bv Mr. Mac-
Kay ;
While Mr. Wright noisily planes every-
day ;
Two hundred and nine is Miss Pendle-
ton’s home;
All over the building Mr. Prescott does
roam ;
Miss Bailey instructs us in ways of
French speech;
Miss Mahaney in social science does
teach;
When in Mrs. Earle’s room, one never
must stir;
All like both Miss Willard's English
and her;
Miss Vallelv's saving is "MA. BA, and
PA";
While Miss Skillin, in contrast, trills
"1)0. RE. ML FA";
Mr. Hayden directs the S. H. S. band;
Miss Anderson properly holds pen in
hand.
Now I’ve not meant to "take” anyone
“for a ride,”
Because 1 would not any teacher de-
ride.

MY DISAPPOINTMENT
Bp HELEN COBB
As I was lying in my bed this morn.
'I nt- rain was drizzling on the window-
pane.
Because the day was dewy, dank and
drab,
I thought how much I’d like to stay at
home.
My red dress needed buttons and a
snap;
My hair could stand a washing and a
wave;
The book on which 1 must report next
week
Would take me all the afternoon to
read.
I heard my mother’s voice calling me.
And with a yawn I struggled out of
bed.
The no-school signal seldom rings for
me.
I ever seem to git the lucky breaks.
A REFLECTION
By YVETTE DOIRON
Sometimes 1 wish I could be a poet
S • that I could describe the beauties
of nature
And the thoughts which 1 feel I must
reveal.
I do sometimes try to express myself.
I am sorry to say it is of no avail ;
So I go on envying the poet.
Who can tell the world his innermost
thoughts.
RAIN
By ROMEO GENL>RON
The rain was beating on the window-
pane ;
1’he somber clouds were swiftly float-
ing by ;
But when we looked again, where was
the rain?
Ii stead, the sun was shining in the
sky.
REALITY OF A VISION
By RUTH SHAW
The brooklet babbled on into the sea;
Its surface shone so clear and pure and
bright!
I saw a vision there beneath its depths.
Which came to me. as mem’ry does
recall,
brom some immortal realm and quite
apart
From sight of any earthly human eye.
It seemed to float along through space.
With verdant carpet spreading ’neath
its feet
To shape a misty sheen below its form.
While walking by this brook of waters
clear
And gazing at this vision all so dim.
1 thought of it as being me down there
AHoating through the wet and misty
deeps.
And then 1 thought of diving down be-
neath
To end my cares ami troubles here
above;
Ami sighing hard, 1 spoke and said,
“Why not?”
The vision moved its head and mocked,
“Why not?”
I stood in wonder at its mocking lips
And wondered why the vision should
respond ;
And suddenly the answer came to me.
It was a challenge to myself to float
Amid the misty, foggy whirl of life;
To take fate as my Master duly
planned.
Again I stopped and peered ’way down
beneath.
The vision also stopped and peered
above.
And all at once the meaning came to
me:
This vision down so deep had solved
my plot
Of folly in a weak and tired heart.
Then from that very hour I wished to
live
And did resolve to live by this one
rule—
The lesson which that vision gave to
me.

OUR CAPTAINS THREE
By ULA LIBBY
The Captain of Football is Ford ;
Defeat he’s always ignored.
That might oft makes right
He has proved in the light.
When a touchdown he has just scored.
In Basketball our Captain Phil,
Whose feats we recollect still.
Dashes in with a grin
The victory to win;
There’s a way—for he has the will.
In Baseball always is found
Captain Loubier out on the mound.
The crowd he bewitches
With the ball that he pitches—
“Slow Ball Artist” is what he is
crowned.
How proud of these captains are we.
The Seniors especially.
The right spirit they show
So success they will know.
Best Wishes we give to these three!
THE SANDPIPER
By ESTELLA PRESCOTT
As down the smooth white beach I
walked one day,
I saw a sandpiper all speckled grey.
As on one foot he listened and peered
round,
His course ran in and out ami up and
down.
It seems a pity that boys should want
to harm
With stone and sling so pretty a little
bird.
God meant this little fellow to give
cheer.
He ne'er floes bother us upon his way
As in and out the water he does play.
FOG
By BARBARA SHAFFER
Birds chirp weakly, peep one last
note, ami dismally retire to their nests.
Nothing stirs. There is no breeze.
Flowers await the sun; finding none.
they shrink from the damp and gray
enclosing them. \ apor slowly wafts
from the dampened earth. Trees reach
their arms into oblivion. Tiny animals
slink homeward through the mist.
Now and then a light blurs faintly
from a lone farm house. A dog howls;
another answers. All is quiet again.
A breeze sighs bravely through a pine.
but wavers and dies. Nature, wrapped
in shroud of gray, seems cut oft from
God. Fog reigns.

FAMILY ALBUMS—THEN
AND NOW
By JOSEPHINE TINSLEY
I have just come from poring over
my latest snapshot album. It is a
large one—now nearlx two-thirds full
—which my grandmother gave me at
Christmas two years ago. I was
pleased with it then ; I am fond of it
now. Every picture recalls some hap-
py or momentous incident that may
or may not in the future be relived.
I think the snapshot books of to-
day are replacing the old-time family
albums; and is not this change a wel-
come one? Treasured though they
may have been in their day. are not
the photographs of aunts and uncles,
grandparents, and babes in arms all
too stiffly unnatural to be of great in-
terest to any except the posers them-
selves? Moreover. 1 am told, often-
times the only real part of such pic-
tures was the head of the person whose
picture was being taken, since photo-
graphers had screens painted with the
entire figures of men and women in
“Sunday best.” with only an opening
left through which the subject of the
photograph might poke his or her
glum or beaming countenance. Thus
in addition to being boringly formal
in character, the former “galleries of
art" were by no means authentic.
Aunt Maria, who somewhat resembled
Uncle Ben’s prize Guernsey, might.
through old-fashioned potography, ap-
pear as sylph-like as did her gawky
daughter—literally wearing the same
clothes.
Granted that family albums served
their purpose and were the pride of
our not-so far-back ancestors. I feel
relieved that I have my snapshots to
which I may turn—clear, life-like im-
ages taken on the spur of the moment,
gay. informal, true.
VACATION
By ADA SENIOR
Because the winter’s gone and spring
is here,
1 feel like sending up a great big cheer.
It means that soon will come vacation
times,
When many people visit different
climes.
Some go away to Pine Point by the
sea,
While others go abroad to Zida Zee.
But when vacation comes to me. 1 take
My bathing suit and start for Pleasant
Lake;
And there I swim and swim and swim
and swim,
And then I perch myself upon a limb
Just so that I can read a thrilling book.
Sometimes 1 take my fishing rod, to
hook
A juicy pickerel or speckled trout.
Ofttimes 1 climb a hill to shout
And listen for my echo’s clear reply.
Of course upon the sandy beach 1 lie
To see if 1 can get a darker tan,
And get so hot 1 wish I had a fan .
Too soon the time for idleness is o’er,
So back to work again I go once more.
NATURE’S BAND
By IT LA LIBBY
Do you hear the light tap, tap, tap?
For several minutes it continues in
slow, even beats. As suddenly as an
orchestra breaks from a dreamy waltz
into the modern carioca, Nature quick-
ly doubles her time; and the soft lulla-
by becomes a jumble of sounds. A
steady throbbing now ensues. Then,
as though the leader’s change had been
but a hasty action, the band gradual-
ly takes on the unmistakable rhythm
of a slow fox trot. Do you recognize
the melody of spring in that incessant
tapping, as Nature sends her April
showers to drum a tune upon your
roof ?

FATE
By LOUISE COWBURN
"When sorrows come, they come not single
spies.
But tn battalions.”
After a day of a moderate amount
of studying, the history lesson be-
comes tangled in statistics. Vergil adds
a few catchy phrases, the French verbs
contribute their share with irregular
forms; and when the English teacher
announces an assignment of an origin-
al composition, you Hing up your hands
in complete surrender and sigh, “Et
tu. Brute.”
About this time a button decides to
drop off, or perhaps there is a run in
your stocking. Of course, this is the
day when you must stay after school
for some meeting or rehearsal. Later.
while trying heroically to swallow the
Mexican Revolution, sprinkled with
I’ortirio Diaz, Carranza. \ ilia, and Za-
pata. you remember that you are sup-
posed to go out that evening. With
whatever remains of your courage and
sanity, you attempt to plow your way
through the rough fields of duties and
requirements. Truly, trouble comes in
bunches; but fortunately, so does joy.
CLASS OF ’34
By NELLIE TEBBETTS
That good old class of '34
Has given much to me.
It taught me how to cook and sew;
It taught me history.
I learned to study nature.
And how to sing B-flat;
But that old class of '34
Has brought me more than that.
It's given friends and comrades true.
Ami who could ask for more?
I’m proud to be a member
Of that class of '34.
CLASS PICTURES
By HELEN COBB
What a babble of voices is heard
in the locker rooms these fine spring
mornings! What racing around the
corridors before the quarter of eight
bell! Is everybody crazy? No, it is
only the seniors exchanging their pic-
tures. Such remarks as "Which one
do you like best?” or "Oh, I want that
one" or "That’s simply adorable” are
heard in almost every class.
To me the exchanging of pictures
seems rather sad. It marks the be-
ginning of the end of four happy years
together. Although 1 have drifted
away from some of those with whom
1 started, I feel, when 1 receive their
pictures, the same warm tingle of
friendship down deep in my heart. The
many new faces in my collection make
me realize that in my high school days
1 have gained something more than
the knowledge of conjugating French
verbs, translating Ovid at sight, writ-
ing themes, and finding the cosines and
tangents of angles.
As I study the photographs before
me, I am amazed at the changes which
have taken place. How grown up we
all seem! Girls 1 remember with
straight hair and bushy eyebrows, now
appear permanently waved and thinly
plucked. In their appearance they
have passed from the careless days to
the careful days. 1 wonder what the
future has in store for each one of us.
What lies beyond does, in a great
measure, depend upon ourselves.
At present every nook and corner
of m\ home is filled with these pic-
tures; soon only a chosen few will re-
main; before long all will be stored
away in the attic. W hen in later years
I climb the attic stairs and sit down
before the old cedar chest, I shall look
at all these youthful faces and live
again my high school days. May ev-
ery classmate that I see there have
made a record in life of which we may
all be proud.

THE GOOD ATHLETE
By HAROLD LOUBIER
For anyone to be an athlete, he
does not necessarily have to be a star
in every sport which is taken up in
the school which he is attending. A
good athlete may be judged by his
good sportsmanship as well as by his
playing ability. If a boy is clean-
minded in all the games in which he
participates, he has gone a long way
in perfecting what everyone likes to
sec in any player.
Although there are a few excep-
tions. brain counts just as much as
brawn in an athletic contest. A good
example of this was illustrated in the
Stanford-Columbia game played at the
Rose Bowl last fall. Stanford out-
weighed Columbia by seventeen pounds
to the man. but Columbia came
through and won by “outsmarting"
their heavier opponents. From a spec-
tator’s point of view, fair play is ad-
mired more than winning the game. It
is much better to lose a game than to
win it by unfair means. A quiet play-
er is liked much better both by his
fellow players and the spectators than
ore who boasts of his achievements.
An ideal athlete is one who can win
and not become over-confident or
“high-hat" ami can lose ami “take it
with a smile." An athlete can either
build up his character or not. depend-
ing on his conduct on the playing field.
whether he is winning or losing. Smil-
ing after a game that has been lost
does not necessarily mean that a play-
er is glad because of losing the game.
but it shows that he can be a good
loser as well as the usual good winner.
A small person may be as good as
a large one in almost any sport. Al-
though there is a saying. “A good BIG
man is better than a good LITTLE
man," there have been exceptions to
this rule; therefore a good athlete
cannot be judged by his size -this fact
has been proved over and over again.
Bob Fitzimmens, former heavyweight
champion of the world, never weighed
over one hundred sixty-five pounds;
yet he beat all of his opponents, wheth-
they were his own weight or whether
the y weighed over two hundred
pounds. Of course for any athlete to
offset such a disadvantage, courage—
moral as well as physical—must be
show n.
Keeping fit is one of the most im-
portant rules. An athlete’s success or
failure may depend on whether or not
he has kept training faithfully. Na-
turally there are fellows who do not
follow these rules; yet they are very
good players. If. however, a fellow is
careful of himself mentally and phys-
ically. he has a much better chance to
succeed in athletics and in life.
BEING A SENIOR
By ELEANOR LAVOIE
Before I went to high school. I can
remember hearing someone refer to a
student in high school as a freshman.
Then and there 1 resolved that I was
never going to be called that. Soon
however, I was to change my mind.
When I finally became a freshman. I
thought I was quite grown up. To me
the seniors were THE THING. They
seemed so full of authority. How dig-
nified they looked! When a became a
sophomore, 1 thought 1 was bigger
than ever.
Now that 1 am a senior. I can hard-
ly realize that my high school days are
swiftly drawing to a close. It will not
be long before graduation will be a
thing of the past. What then? Every
summer until now I have looked for-
ward to vacation and then school again
in the fall. This year, to look forward
to the next few years almost frightens
me. It seems as if 1 am left high and
dry in mid-air with nothing to grasp.
So you see a senior does not always
feel as dignified as you think he should.

YAWNING
By ESTELLA PRESCOTT
What is more annoying to a speak-
er than to see scattered here and there
through the audience large, dark holes
exhibiting throat and tonsils? The
speaker knows that yawns express
either sleepiness or boredom. Of
course in a high school, or for that
matter any school, in order to have an
audience tn which less than half are
not yawning, the speaker must be ex-
tremely interesting. (Indeed it is ex-
pected that students will yawn.)
Then comes the spring time. Is
there any time of year more creative
of yawns than spring—especially when
the windows are wide open and the
sweet fragrance of the trees comes
seeping through to tantalize sensitive
nostrils? Every city, township, and
village is under quarantine because of
the delightful contagious disease that
is extremely difficult to escape—
•‘spring fever?’ One of the symptoms
of this pleasing malady is the frequent
and involuntary gaping or opening of
the mouth. This is caused, not by
fatigue, lioredom, or drowsiness, but
just by that most agreeable something
that we breathe in the spring.
Then what a delightful pastime it
is, when there is nothing to do, just to
be able to open the mouth as far as
|M>ssible—in other words, to yawn!
Relief comes; burdens seem lighter.
You say this act is rude. Then why
do you do it? You who talk so much
about ‘'that yawning" just watch your-
selves some day. Don't you yawn once
in a while? Can you stop it? It is to
be hoped you will profit by this obser-
vation and thus overlook a yawn now
and then.
THE STRAY DOG
By HELEN FLINT
As I was walking along the street
on which 1 live, suddenly something
very like a cyclone struck me front be-
hind. Turning. 1 beheld a curly. Huf-
fy, black little piece of dogmanity,
crouching as though to ask my pardon
for his rudeness. His appealing brown
eyes were enough excuse for me to
bend down to pet the little fellow. Af-
ter a few minutes 1 went on my way
ami left the scrap of friendliness sit-
ting in the road, looking pathetically
after me.
Arriving home, 1 sat down to en-
joy an interesting book. There came
to my ears the sound of a tiny click,
click, click. Surely I wasn't going to
have company wearing ice-creepers at
this time of year! Someone tapped at
my door and was too lazy to take his
hand away, for there was an unmis-
takable dragging of finger-nails on the
door. Upon opening it, I gasped in
surprise. There on the steps calmly
sat my accoster of the hour before.
Shining eyes looked into mine; a
plume of a tail wagged excitedly ; and
there came a tiny whine from a ruffled
throat as the invader bounced expect-
antly on the steps.
After recovering from the shock, 1
asked the visitor in. He walked sed-
ately into the living room, sat down.
and with a' very pleased manner, sur-
veyed his surroundings.
Is there anything more humanly
friendly than a dog. even a stray one?

Outstand their tpialities of worth;

BUYING A HAT
By DWIGHT BERARD
On Christmas. Beatrice Johnston
was given a new coat, a black one. As
she had no black hat to wear with the
coal, she must buy one. After arguing
with her mother about how much she
was to spend on the hat and almost
breaking down to cry because her
mother would not give her a dollar
and ninety-eight cents, but only a dol-
lar and a half, she finally started out.
After much coaxing, her brother
said that he would walk down street
and help select the bonnet. The first
store they went into was crowded, and
she could look at the hats without be-
ing asked by the clerk, ''May I help
you?’’ The first hat tried on was a
dollar one. It had a brim which cov-
ered the right eye so that nothing
could be seen from it. Even so, it was
in style, and that was what she want-
ed. In one part of the store hats were
marked at twenty-five cents.
Brother suggested, “Why not buy
four of those ? They won’t cost any
more." Beatrice did nothing but look
disgusted. Then she tried on more
hats.
After trying on all the black hats
costing between ninety-eight cents
and a dollar and a half, they went out
to look in another store. All the hats
there were tried on, too. There was
one which was beautiful, but the size
was 22 instead of 23, and of course
it was too tight. Another store was
tried, but this time only about four
hats were large enough to get on.
"Must have a big head.” remarked
Brother: “anyway, there is nothing in
it”; whereupon he was politely told to
keep quiet.
Back they went to the first store,
where they found a hat which Beatrice
fell in love with, but it was too small.
Beatrice said that she must have it and
didn’t know how she could possible
have missed it before.
Said brother, “You’re always miss-
ing,” but the remark had no effect.
After finding that the hat could
not be stretched very well because it
was hard felt, not soft, Beatrice decid-
ed to lake the very first one tried on.
On the way home three stores were
discovered that hadn’t even been en-
tered. It was too late then; so home
they went, fifty cents to the good.
While trying on hat and coat together
at night. Beatrice discovered that the
brim on that hat rubbed the fur on the
coat so that the hat could not be worn.
“Isn’t that just like a woman?" said
the brother.
And isn’t it?
THE YEARS BEHIND
By HELEN M. FLINT
What has high school meant to us?
During the four years spent here,
we have grown from youngsters to
young men and women—the supposed-
ly promising generation. We have
been taught to take care of ourselves.
The world is going to expect a great
deal of the graduating classes of 1934.
because of the great crisis now being
experienced.
Many will go immediately into the
world to earn a living, prepared only
by the education and experience re-
ceived at high school. May those of
us who are fortunate enough to go to
college appreciate our opportunity and
make the most of it.
The years behind have been well
worth the time spent, for every detail
gained each day has gone far to pre-
pare us for our future life.

CURIOSITY
By DOROTHY LITTLEFIELD ’34
Many people are noted for their
curiosity, some even for downright in-
quisitiveness; but no matter how bad a
case of this disease a person may have.
he has never been and will never be
able to compare with a cat.
Did you ever see anything so bent
on knowing everything that goes on as
one of the feline species? He may be
curled up in a warm spot behind the
stove, dreaming of mice after eating
an especially satisfying dinner, ap-
parently asleep; but the moment any-
thing is dropped or something not in
the ordinary routine occurs, the first
one to appear on the scene, you may be
sure, is none other than our friend, the
cat. He advances leisurely, stretching
his body luxuriously and blinking his
green eyes from which the last traces
of an interrupted nap have not yet dis-
appeared. Then, beginning to display
a little interest in his surroundings, he
looks around inquisitively. and discov-
ers a spoon, which has fallen during
the hurried preparation for unexpected
company. He walks up to it. sniffs it.
his nose working like a rabbit's, per-
hans pats it once or twice with an in-
quiring naw. and returns to his former
resting-place to off peacefully tn
sleen attain. Did T snv to sleep? He
will remain romfortablv at ease, with-
out a care in the world, until some-
thing else chances to amuse his in-
cessant desire for knowledge.
When the comnanv arrives he trots
along by the side of the hostess to
greet the newcomers, expecting and
receiving a lame share of attention.
One of the visitors stoops to smooth
his fur. Immediately his motor starts
up. rather weak at first, like that of a
rar when an attempt is made to start
it on a cold morning, but increasing in
volume in proportion to his apprecia-
tion and in proportion to the amount of
smoothing received. Soon, however.
the serene sound dies out; and he re-
turns to his one real occupation in life,
sleeping.
Later when another visitor is at-
tempting to amuse him by drawing a
string along the floor, the sleepy ani-
mal rises, stretches, and sits down to
ponder the situation. Is it really worth
the trouble to chase that tantalizing
piece of string? He decides it is. He
crouches. His head bobs up and down.
His legs are getting ready to run. He
springs, his legs flying wildly behind
him on the smooth, polished floor. At
last he has captured the elusive piece
of string, his curiosity satisfied.
What about the saying. “Curiosity
killed a cat.” you ask? That’s easy.
Remember a cat has nine lives.
POEM WRITING
By DOROTHY LITTLEFIELD
If only all the English teachers knew
The agony we students must go
through
To pass in compositions finely written,
As if with* pedant bug we had been
bitten !
.Now after struggling vainly four long
years.
We’ve reached the culmination of our
fears;
At last they fell us we must write in
verse—
I can't imagine anything that’s worse!
I’d like to read a poem they might
write.
For which they had to sit up all one
night.
And then perhaps we’d get some sym-
pathy,
Which we have needed long, as you
can see.

HOUSES AT NIGHT

As one dark night 1 roamed about the
town,
I glanced in every window that 1
passed.
Illumined by the glaring light inside,
11 >w up-to-date some houses; some,
how bare!
Ihe lives of those who lived therein.
for me
W ere graven on my mind by that one
glance.
I wondered how they came to be like
this,
But in my wondering I no answer
found.
\\ -.v should these little children not
have food.
While those next door are—oh, so free
from care?
In one prim house I met a comforting
sight:
A white haired couple in content lived
there;
’Tis such as they who make the world
seem right.
They were not wealthy—that was not
the cause;
But they the secret knew of how’ to
live.
Although I know it is not ours to
choose
The course we’d like to follow on life’s
route.
If we but made the best of what we
have,
We all would have contentment and to

W e all would winners be, and none
would lose.
CLIMBING THE STAIRS
TO SUCCESS
By FLORENCE LISTER
As the old saying goes. “You get
out of life what you put into it.” How
many, though, sacrifice until they get
what they started out to accomplish?
Too often they stumble on the way,
get lost, or wake up too late, only to
find that they have lost the opportun-
ity that fate held in store for them.
The time is drawing near when we
of the class of ’34 must decide what we
want to become in life. Most of us
are wondering or planning what will
bring us to the “top,” so to speak. Not
all of us are gifted to become leaders,
inventors, or poets; but God gave each
one of us some talent to use to the
best of advantage. Perhaps it isn’t
much—only some little thing: yet if
we have the courage to believe in that
talent, it will at least make life worth
while. It is human nature to want to
be somebody in life, but very few
come to realize the desire and aim they
started out to accomplish.
We are going this way only once.
so why don’t we give the world the
best we have. True success means
many years of hard work, disappoint-
ments. and some failures: hut. after
all. it is this sort of thing in life that
brings us just one step higher to suc-
cess. Let us not realize too late what
God really meant us to be; let us studv
and work and sacrifice; and at the end
of the road, even though we have not
become leaders, inventors, or poets, we
shall at least have made life worth-
while.

WHY GRAMMAR?
By ABE BSHARA
MY DISAPPOINTMENT
Ry MARJORIE F. JELLISON
After all. why grammar? I can
study conjugations of verbs, declensions
of nouns, comparisions of adjectives
and adverbs, cases of pronouns, and
one month later not know whether I
decline my verbs or conjugate them.
It's all the same, anyway: so why
bother? I may say “them houses.”
and my teacher will look at me in hor-
ror ; but all the same she knows which
houses I mean as much as if I had said
the correct word. I may learn after
a great effort on my part and on the
part of my family and teachers to say
politely, "Please hurry”; but I can say
one word. "Scram.” and there is no
one who doesn’t know what I mean.
So. after all, why grammar?
Did you ever go out on a cold, win-
ter morning ami see the ice glistening
on the trees?
One morning when I was a little
girl, I went out to play, and was much
attracted by the sparkling branches.
I quickly picked a bouquet and ran in
to show it to my mother. In a few
minutes, to my great disappointment,
1 no longer had a pretty, shining bou-
quet. but a bunch of wet, dripping
branches.

FOOTBALL
Among those most interested in the
success of football was Coach Hillman
“Flash” Fallon, former Dartmouth
football player and Athol High coach,
who entered Sanford High School with
the class of '34. Judging from the pep
with which the boys went to work,
great things were expected of our fu-
ture football teams. Of the large
squad that turned out. a great number
were from the freshman class. The
outstanding members for the class of
'34 were “Bib” Drouin. Christo Sefer-
lis, George Simpson, and “Nap" Ber-
ard. Of these players. "Bib" Drouin
was the only one t<> receive a letter.
Although the other three players saw
plent) of action during the season,
they did not have the required number
of periods to earn their letter. There
were many other candidates from the
Freshman Class who worked every af-
ternoon <>f the season learning the
fundamentals of the game and getting
experience that would make them bet-
ter players.
The 1930 team, captained by Fred
Jowett. won four games, tied one. and
lost four. The members of the team
were awarded their letters at a dance
given b) the Boys’ Council. The next
year's team with Captain-elect Walt
Chase at the helm, seemed to be head-
ed towards a big place in football with
several players of the 1930 team com-
ing back.
1931
The 1931 team was the best that
Sanford has put on the field during
our stay in school, even though it was
beaten twice and tied once. The de-
feats came at the hands of South Port-
land and our arch-rival. Biddeford. In
all the football games between the
schools. Sanford has twice tied, but
never beaten Biddeford. Thornton
Academy was in 1931 champion of
southwestern Maine, and the tie with
the champion rated Sanford as one of
the strongest teams in Maine.
"Bib" Drouin again received his let-
ter for the good work done on the
football field. Members of the class
of '34 who received their first letters
were C.eorge Simpson, quarterback.
and Christo Seferlis. tackle. “Bib”
Drouin was lost by the age-limit ruling,
but the other two lettermen from the
class of '34 were available for service
in the next football season.
Others from the Sophomore Class
that did not receive letters but should
be mentioned for the improvement
shown in their work were Willie Mc-
Kone. “Nap” Berard, Jim McKeon,
“Mike” I.ibbey, and Phil Charette.
In that year, a watch was given to
the player most valuable to the team
as voted on by the people who attend-
ed the games. The contest was spon-
sored by Earl Howe of Springvale.
Stanley I.ibbey ’31. varsity center, won
the award with Teddy Crowley '31,
coming in second.
\t the end of the season the boys
were awarded their letters by Irad
Hardy. all-American tackle from
Harvard. Captain Walt Chase was so
well liked by the varsity as their leader
that he was re-elected.
1932
The 1932 football season started a
week earlier than usual with over six-
ty candidates reporting to Coach Fal-
lon. For the first two weeks, Irad
Hardy helped our coach in his work
with the squad.
The team for that year was made
up of nine seniors and two juniors.
The two members from the class of
'34 were Mel Ford and Phil Charette.
George Simpson, although not a regu-
lar, played in more than enough peri-
ods to earn his letter. Other members
from the class of '34 who deserved
honorable mention for their work done
on the football field were Jim McKeon.
“Mike” Libbey, “Nap” Berard, and
W illie McKone.
PAGE SIXTY-THREE
Though the football season for ’32
cannot be considered a successful one.
it goes to prove that the boys on the
team played hard and well even
though they were losing. Sanford
lost to Cheverus, Thornton, South
F’ortland, Washington Normal School.
Westbrook, and Morse; but it beat
Brunswick High School and tied our
rival Biddeford. The game with Bid-
deford, played at Sanford, was 'he
most interesting and hard fought foot-
ball game ever played between these
two schools. Playing before the larg
est crowd of the season, the small San-
ford team, out-weighed about ten
pounds per man. played their best
game of the year. Time and again
they replused the big, heavy Biddeford
team ; and on two occasions Sanford
threatened to score on their oppon-
ents. The game ended in a scoreless
tie. with neither side gaining an ad-
vantage; but it showed that Bidde-
ford could be tied.
At a meeting of the lettermen for
the 1932 football season. Vel Ford, var-
sity center, was elected captain for the
oncoming fall.
1933
The class of ’34 really came into
its own this football season by having
seven of the eleven positions on the
team taken by seniors. The seniors
who made their letters were Jim Mc-
Keon. Roland Adams, “Nap” Berard.
Phil Charette. Willie McKone. George
Simpson, “Mike" Libbey, and Captain
Vel Ford. Special mention should be
given to Roland Adams who reported
this year for his first football season
and made the team.
After the outcome of the first two
games, which were a tie with a weak
Somersworth team and a defeat at the
hands of Thornton Academy, the out-
look for the rest of the season was
not very bright. The defeat by Thorn-
ton seemed to have put a new pep into
the team. The new system and plays
introduced by our coach, who certain-
ly knows his business, started to func-
tion right in our third game. From
then on. we gathered successive wins
over Livermore Falls. St. Johns High.
Cheverus. ami Westbrook.
Then came the objective game of
the season between Sanford and Bid-
deford at Biddeford. Never was so
much enthusiasm shown as before
“the” Biddeford game. Sanford was
well represented by a great number
of students, townspeople, and the band
from the high school. For the first
half of the game Sanford held the Bid-
deford offense well in check and on
three different occasions had the ball
inside their opponent’s 10-yard line.
But in the second half the big orange
and black eleven, which heavily out-
weighed the Sanford team, really got
going. After three attempted thrusts
at the Sanford line had failed. Bidde-
ford scored late in the third period
from the one-yard marker. Though
Sanford made many attempts to score
by passes in the fourth period, we
could not “shake” the Biddeford
“jinx”; and our rivals won another
game by the score of 6-0.
The only severe injury that the
Sanford team had during the season
happened to George Simpson, member
of the class of ’34. “Hard Luck”
George broke his collarbone in a scrim-
mage tw<> weeks before the season
started, thus keeping him from the
first few games. Later, in the West-
brook tilt, fate again played him the
same trick, this time keeping him out
for the remainder of the season.
Though the 1933 football team did
not accomplish wonders, it came
through with more victories than loss-
es ; and we. the class of '34 hope that
Captain-elect Harlow Currier and his
team, under the direction of Coach
Fallon, will have as good a football
season as that of 1933, if not better.

SANFORD HIGH SCHOOL BASKETBALL TEAM, 1933-34
BASKETBALL
1930-31
Basketball did not rank very high
in the estimation of most of the fresh-
men as there were no representatives
of the class playing on A squad, al-
though many of them attended the
games. However, we had a goodly
number working out daily on B squad,
and undoubtedly this practice enabled
them to turn out the team which they
did when they were seniors. Sanford
did not have a particularly good team
this year; but although it could not
defeat South Portland. Biddeford,
Chevcrus, or Thornton, it did win by
goodly scores, from Kennebunk, Traip,
and Berwick. Ray Morrill was cap-
tain and had behind him such men as
Jowett. Lister. Norton. Jellison, Mc-
Hugh. Merrifield, and Libbey. Everett
W ebber managed the team.
1931-32
During our second year the class
moved up a notch in athletic circles;
for two of our members. Robert Smith
ami Phil Charette, saw action for brief
moments in two games. The team
also improved; and although it lost to
Cheverus and South Portland, it broke
the Biddeford jinx by trouncing them
39-12 and squashed Thornton in a
breath-taking battle 19-18. Captain
Libbey and Handin played guards;
Jellison was the center; and McHugh
and Merrifield played as forwards.
Other letter men were Pelletier, Clark.
Thyng, Edgecomb, Howgate, and
Manager Downs.
1932-33
Our junior year saw the class of
'34 step out. We placed two men.
Robert Smith and Charette, on the
first team, and four members on the
second team, McKone, McKeon. Car-
lisle, and George Simpson. This team
played good basketball ami lost many
of its games by only one or two points.
The team opened at home with
Thornton, in a hard fought tilt which
saw the visitors come through in the
last quarter to take the game 43-34.
Westbrook by one point, the Alumni
by one point, and Portsmouth by two
|M)ints turned back our Red and White
basketeers. Biddeford and Somers-
worth. however, went down before our
onslaught. But the biggest thrill of
all came when we spoiled Cheverus'
undefeated record in the last game of
the season. 18-14. Besides the men
mentioned above, others who received
letters were: Co-captains McHugh and
Merrifield. McCullough, Stott. Spence,
Dexter. Moulton, and Spendlove, who
filled the position as manager.
1933-34
This year the team, led by Captain
Phil Charette, completed the best sea-
son in eleven years of Red and White
basketball, winning twelve of the thir-
teen games scheduled. Coach “Flash”
Fallon was the man at the helm ; and it
is to his credit that all teams under his
direction, in every season, have bet-
tered their performances of previous
years. The forward line, consisting of
Roland Carlisle. Willie McKone. and
Robert Smith, shot over 100 points for
the season. George Simpson ami Phil
Charette, regular guards, held down
their positions with distinction, Simp-
son and McKone receiving honorable
mention at Bates Tournament. Jim-
mie McKeon. Sanford's “sixth regu-
lar", proved a valuable adjunct to the
team and more than once saved the
day for Sanford by his fine defensive
playing.
The season o|>ened away from home
against a strong Thornton Academy
five. The season did not look aus-
picious at the start of this game; for
the Academy was ahead 4-0 at the
quarter, and as many points at the
half. 14-10. In the second half, how-
ever, the Red Flashes went on a spree
and were out ahead 44-24 at the final
gun.
PAGE SIXTY-SEVEN’
Sanford’s second victory came on
Portsmouth's large floor. Ranked as
the underdogs, our basketeers came
from behind to take the lead midway
<>f the first period, and slid home ahead
29-18.
The Fallonites then took on the
Alumni and Westbrook, but the fast
breaking and well timed passing at-
tack was too much for either of them,
the scores being 37-18 and 33-8 re-
spectively.
The Red Flashes dropped their only
scheduled game in our home gym to a
fighting Portsmouth High team 28-24.
The invaders started off with an of-
fensive drive and, scoring mostly on
long heaves from the side of the court,
had run up a 16-7 lead at half time.
Our team came back to play their best
basketball of the game in the third
period. when they drew up a 20-20
deadlock ; but Hersey, the visiting cap-
tain, made some set-ups good and in
the waning moments sewed up the
game for the visitors.
Sanford then journeyed to Chev-
erus to earn the distinction of being
the hist Sanford team to win in the
Cathedral Gym, also being the third
high school team ever to win in that
gym. The Red and White quintet had
a 17-10 margin at half time, but in the
contest’s dying moments the Purple
tied it up at 24 all. Here, however,
Carlisle ami Me Kone came through
with a basket apiece to put the game
on ice for Sanford.
The Flashes then journeyed to Bid-
deford to take the Orange and Black
into camp 38-16, and also to Westbrook
to take a heartbreaking, hair-raising
thriller 28-26. The lead changed like
lightning throughout the encounter,
ami the biggest margin either team
had at any time was four points. In
the closing moments, Simpson stepped
up to the foul line and swished the net-
ting for a free throw; and it was here
that Westbrook yielded for the first
lime in the battle.
Playing at home, our hardwood
dribblers in the opening period amass-
ed an early seven-point lead, which
was subsequently increased to 11
points at half time. This lead enabled
them to coast in the last two quarters
to a 25 18 victory over their old rival,
Thornton Academy.
We met unexpected opposition
from Biddeford when they played
here; but when the smoke of the ex-
tremely rough battle lifted, the Red
ami White court combination had
downed its arch rival 28-18.
We then took a journey across the
state line to play Somersworth. N. H.
However, they were no match for our
hoopsters, who were displaying early
season form, and were easily crushed
49-22.
An overflow crowd, which was
hanging from everything but the chan-
deliers. saw our local hoop team van-
quish the Purple hoopsters from Chev-
erus in an exciting skirmish 27-19.
Ihe Sanford defense was airtight, ow-
ing to their zone playing and the chairs
extending out over the playing floor;
so the Portland boys adopted the
policy of taking long shots and follow-
ing up the rebounds. This earned
them an 11-3 margin; but here the
Fallonites came to life and then staged
their most sensational rally of the year.
In the four minutes remaining in the
first half, they not only knotted up
the score but moved into the van 14-11.
I he third quarter had a purple hue to
it when the Forest City lads drew up
on even terms at the three-quarter
mark 16-16. but from here on the home
team took command of the situation
and finished going away.
The last game of the season for
our basket tossers was nothing more
than a workout, when they swamped
a thoroughly outclassed Somersworth
High quintet 52-7. The game was a
walk away from its very beginning,
and the outcome was never in doubt.
The reserves saw a great deal of ac-
tion in this contest ami made a good
showing against the visitors.
PAGE SIXTY-EIGHT
The team was rated as one of the
best in the state and as a result was
invited to the Bates Tournament held
in Lewiston. The team left Thursday
afterncxm but did not play until Fri-
day. Our hoopsters, called the possi-
ble “dark horses” of the tourney, drew
Morse High of Bath in the prelims.
The game was scheduled for four
o’clock in the Lewiston Armory. Our
boys had a bad case of nervousness
and as a result could not push the ball
through the draperies. Our boys im-
pressed a good-sized, opening session
crowd by their accurate passing and
lightning relays from one to another
but, owing to extreme nervousness,
seemed unable to find the basket.
Morse led at the quarter 8-3, and at
the half 17-10. Sanford, however,
drew up to within 3 points of the en-
emy but could not quite find the punch
to carry them through. Carr. Morse’s
cocky center, accounted for 20 of their
points.
Captain Phil Charette, George
Simpson. Roland Carlisle. Robert
Smith. William McKone, James Mc-
Keon, and Manager Warren Simpson
were presented by the athletic asso-
ciation with white sweaters with a red
‘‘S’’. Roland Sylvain. Carleton Libbey.
and Ernest Fritz received letters.
Although the prospects do not look
any too bright for next year's varsity
team, the class of '34 wishes the team
all the luck in the world; and hopes
that Coach Fallon turns out as good
teams in the future as he has in the
past.
INTERCLASS BASKETBALL
During our freshman year very lit-
tle interest was shown in interclass
basketball; and. as a result, no games
were scheduled.
Our sophomore year was a banner
one when we won the championship
of the school. We first took on the
freshmen ; but they were no match for
the bewildering attack our boys put
up, and we took this game easily 21-5.
In this. Sylvain, R. Smith, and G. Simp-
stood out for the sophomores.
In the finals for the championship
the sophomores played the seniors;
and, alter a hair-raising struggle, again
our boys came through. The score
stood 8-0 before the sophomores made
a single point; and although we then
brought the score up to 8-5, the seniors
remained in the lead until the fourth
quarter. Here our guards zipped in
six field goals from the center of the
floor, which completely baffled the up-
per classmen and gave up the victory
23-20. This game was the most excit-
ing ever witnessed in the interclass
contest, and the spectators were in a
constant uproar. G. Simpson. Char-
ette. and Drouin were the stars for the
sophomores.
Our junior year was as successful
as was the preceding one, and again
we swept all opposition aside to ride
home with the pennant. For our
opening battle we took on the sopho-
mores; but they could not cope with
the smooth, fast, accurate passing at-
tack that our lads put up. The first
half was fairly even, ending 14-7; but
in the second half the juniors ran riot
and brought their total up to 44. Mc-
Kone as forward gathered eighteen
points, and R. Smith as center gath-
ered ten. Charette and G. Simpson.
playing guard, were responsible for the
sophomores' low total of seventeen
points.
In the final encounter we juniors
again displayed our same bewildering
attack which we had used in the pre-
ceding battle and swamped the seniors
47-21. The first half really salted
away the verdict, when we ran up thir-
ty points while holding the seniors to
a mere six. The second half was more
evenly matched, but we were content
to ride home on our first half margin.
R. Smith snared thirteen and McKone
ten points, but the juniors’ great team
work was the reason for our victory.
PAGE SIXTY-NINE
The faculty team (which consisted
of two faculty members and three var-
sity members) then challenged the
juniors to a game. The battle was a
roughly played tussle from start to
finish, but the juniors were out ahead
21-13 at the half. Here the referees
were changed, and at the. tinal gong
the faculty stood out in front 67-63.
The teams spent most of their time
in playing the man and not the ball;
and. as a result, the game turned into
a chaos teeming with fouls. Carlisle
and McKone were the juniors’ best
bets.
The games, as far as wins and loss-
es were concerned, did not turn out
so well our senior year. The schedule
was not drawn up until after the var-
sity schedule had got under way. and
consequently our team was made up of
inexperienced players. We opened
with the freshmen but were set back
21-15. Although the defeat was rather
humiliating, the fact that the fresh-
men won the championship rather eas-
es the defeat.
In the second game we took on the
sophomores, but again we were turned
back 22-19. The seniors got away to
a bad start and were behind at the
half 10-4; but after a determined third
period rally, we were only two points
behind, 17-15. However, here the
sophs tightened up; and although the
seniors tried hard to eke out a victory,
it was of no avail. Loubier and Fritz
each had a good day for our fourth-
year men.
Our boys received their third con-
secutive setback when we played the
juniors 23-14 to wind up our season.
I'he seniors held the third-year men
for two periods ; and although we were
behind, we were at all times within
striking distance. Fritz and Vallely
were the seniors’ outstanding perform-
ers ; but the whole team should be
praised for the fight it showed, even
in the throes of defeat.
Although our season was unsuc-
cessful. the fact that our boys were
the only ones not taking gymnasium
work rather evens the defeats and
eases the losses.
GIRLS’ ATHLETICS
Mthough the girls of the class of
1934 did not have the opportunity of
playing on varsity teams, they were
able to show their athletic ability in
intramural sports
Hockey
Our first and second seasons of
hockey proved very successful. A
great many of our class responded to
Miss Everett’s call for hockey practice
at the Goodall Park in the fall of 19.30.
After a few weeks of training, senior
captains were chosen to lead teams.
After a series of hard fought games,
Elsie llowgate’s team won the cham-
pionship1. Ada Senior.. Marjorie Fox.
Muriel Johnson. Louise Cowburn. Dor-
othy Littlefield. Caroline Hanscom,
and Josephine Tinsley were the mem-
bers of our class on the winning team.
1931
Hockey in this year was trans-
ferred from the Goodall Park to the
grounds at the southern end of the
high school. A great many of the ’34
girls went out for hockey their sopho-
more year. There was such a large
number from each class that Miss Ev-
erett decided to have class teams. The
girls made much progress during prac-
tices. and were finally “set” for the
contest for the championship. All the
classes proved to be strong opponents,
but we were the strongest. By a 2-1
victory over the undefeated seniors,
the sophomores captured the crown.
Those on the team were Captain Muri-
el Johnson. Yvette Doiron, Mildred
Williams. Esther Porell, Marjorie
Jellison, Dorothy Littlefield, Ruth
Shaw, Marjorie Fox, Florence Lister,
PAGE SEVENTY
Caroline Hanscom. Josephine Tinsley,
Jeannette Gerry, Nellie Tebbetts,

and Lucille Couturier, Each of us re-
ceived a small letter “H.”
1932-33
When Miss Everett left. Miss
Fowler took up her duties in hockey.
There were not enough girls to play
class games, but they played a few
games. The girls were grateful to
Miss Fowler for having taken such an
interest in their activities.
A tennis club was formed in the
s| rin<' of 1933 for enthusiasts of the
game. Muriel Johnson was chosen
president; Kenneth Prescott, vice
president; and Yvette I )oiron. secre-
tary treasurer. There were original-
ly two courts, but the one nearer the
school was beyond repair. The other
was raked, rolled, and lined off by the
students. High wire fences were put
up at each end of the court as back-
stops. After making these repairs, the
students enjoyed a great deal of play-
ing.
Baseball
In 1931 baseball was tried out by
Miss Everett and the girls of Sanford
High. Several girls from each class
participated in the sport, but there
were not enough to make up four in-
vividual class teams. Two teams were
organized so that games might be
played, although it was impossible to
have a contest. The lassies of the
class of ’34 were interested in the
game, for they were well represented
on the teams. The open field at the
Elizabeth Benton Playground offered
the girls an excellent playing ground.
Archery
Archery was introduced in our
sophomore year. Because only one
how and a few arrows were available,
only a few girls could practice at the
same time. Under Miss Everett’s
supervision, the girls became skillful
with the bow and arrow. They prac-
ticed during their gym classes, lunch
period, and after school.
Athletic Clubs
Miss Everett, in our freshman year,
in order to arouse more spirit and en-
thusiasm. formed the Girls’ Athletic
Association and the ('.iris’ “S” Club.
Members of our class were able to
join only the G. A. A. Both organiza-
tions were discontinued when Miss
Everett left.
Basketball
1930
'Pen upper classmen were chosen
to lead teams in the basketball tourna-
ment. Members of our class were rep-
resented on all the teams. As soon as
the freshmen had become accustomed
to the rules and regulations of the
game, the tournament was started.
After a long series of games. Muriel
MacFarland’s team won. Lucille Cou-
turier and Florence Lister were the
lucky '34 members. Each girl on the
team was awarded a felt basketball.
I
1931
As in hockey, class teams were or-
ganized in basketball. More than a
hundred girls participated in the class
games. Although we won easily from
the freshmen and seniors, the stub-
born juniors were not to be beaten. In
a close game, their team, captained by
Jean Stiles, beat the sophomores, cap-
tained by Yvette Doiron. 17-15. Those
on the winning team were presented
with small “B's”.
1932
With Yvette Doiron again our
leader, we started the season well.
Fifty girls, eager to win, were prac-
ticing three times a week. The soph-
omores. with Helen Moulton as their
captain, won the championship 15-13.
PAGE SEVENTY-ONE
We were still unable to reach the top.
Miss Bailey gave the winning team a
banquet at the high school.
1933
This year was our last chance to
win the basketball championship. Al-
though very few of our class were
playing, we were able to form a strong
senior team. Miss Fowler conducted
practices twice every week, so that
the freshmen might learn the game.
In March the games were played oil'.
We met surprisingly strong opposition
when we played the young freshmen
led by Lillian Caron. Captain Yvette
Doiron. Muriel Johnson, Esther Porell,
Marjorie Jellison, Lucille Couturier,
and Nellie Tebbetts were the players
on the winning senior team.

BASEBALL
1931
\ new era in baseball began at San-
ford High School when our coach, Hill-
man O. Fallon, issued his first call for
candidates. Out of the large number
that reported, Taylor. Loubier. R. St.
\mand. and Emery formed the pitch-
ing staff with "Bib” Drouin and “Joe”
St. Amand taking care of the catch-
ing department. Perron, Dexter. M.
Merrifield, McHugh. S. l.ibbey, Dube.
and Norton made up a formidable
group from which a good team could
be built.
Sanford High suffered a defeat at
the hands of the Boys’ Club by the
score of 11-7 at the Goodall Park on
April 18. After the school boys had
tied the score in the eighth inning at
five all. the graduates put on a six-run
rally that gave them a big lead and
eventually the game. 'I he battery for
Sanford was Taylor. Loubier. and St.
Amand as pitchers and Drouin as
catcher. For the Boys Club, Guptill
did the pitching.
In a closely fought battle with
Thornton, Sanforjl nosed out the Acad-
emy boys by a score of 5-3. Bell, the
opposing pitcher, was a little unsteady
and yielding two runs in the first in-
ning: but the Maroon and Gold boys
came back to score three runs in the
third canto and to hold the lead until
the eighth. With Dube getting a base
on ball. Joe and Ray St. Amand and
Merrifield following with successive
hits. Sanford took a lead which was
sufficient to win the ball game al-
though another tally was scored in
the ninth inning for safe measure.
Westbrook shut out Sanford by the
score of 6-0 in the game played al
Goodall Park on May 9. St. Amand
hurled steadily for the first half of the
game: however, in the fifth and sixth
innings, the home team’s defense
weakened. Errors coupled with the
timely hitting of the Paper City club
gave them the winning margin. Mor
rill and Dube stood out for the Plush
Towners.
Deering came to life in the late in-
nings and won a 16-12 slugfest from
Sanford. Coming from behind, the
suburbanites scored seven runs in the
ninth inning to tie the score and con-
tinued their offensive drive in the tenth
to score four more runs and win the
ball game. Al Perron led the San-
ford hitters with his three hits.
Sanford outslugged their arch riv-
al. Biddeford, at Alumni field to take
a 14-9 victory. The Orange and Black
were unable t<> solve St. Arnaud's de-
Fvery until the late innings of the
fame. Meanwhile, the Sanford boys
had niled up a commendable lead which
Biddeford was unable to overtake. Ray
Morrill led the attack with two singles
and a double.
Sanford finished the season in sixth
place with four victories and ten losses.
1932
The 1932 baseball season opened
with Sanford winning over Cheverus
by the score of 8-7. Even though the
elongated 'Cheverus pitcher. “Jabber”
Joyce, struck out 17 Sanford batters.
the home team won the game in the
ninth inning when "Bib” Drouin
doubled down the left field fold line
to score W. Merrifield, who had
reached first on an error. “Bib”
Drouin, who played shortstop for San-
ford. shone in the field as well as at
bat.
Although badly beaten by Portland.
17-3, Sanford came back a few days
later to trounce the city boys by the
score of 11-7. Emery and Taylor were
unable to stop the big bats of the Blue
and White in the first encounter, but
Hal Loubier proved too strong for
them in the return game. Again
Drouin made himself the outstanding
player with five hits in as many times
at bat.
PAGE SEVENTY-KIVE
In the next league contest, the
South Portland hitting and pitching
was too strong for Sanford, and the
Plush Towners went down to a 11-2
defeat. The outstanding play of the
game was made by "Whistle” Char-
ette when he pulled down Campbell’s
long fly in deep right field.
In one of the fastest and most in-
teresting games of the season. San-
ford beat Thornton by the score of 5-4.
By rallies in the sixth and seventh in-
nings. Sanford overcame their oppon-
ents* 3-0 lead ami won the contest.
The outstanding features of the day
were Loubier’s pitching and Perron's
good hitting.
Sanford was the victim of two de-
feats suffered at the hands of West-
brook by the scores of 8-3 and 9-1. In
the game played at the Paper City.
Sanford lost the services of two regu-
lars. While sliding at home plate in
an attempt to score from second on a
base hit. Johnny Binnette broke his
wrist, and in the sixth inning “Bib”
Drouin wrenched his knee. With the
bases loaded in the ninth inning.
Pouliot, substitute catcher, doubled
and produced three runs for Sanford.
In the second encounter. McHugh for
Sanford and Robichaud for Westbrook
were outstanding.
In the return game with Thornton
Sanford again emerged victor by the
score of 5-3. Loubier’s good pitching
and Sanford's rallies in the late innings
were sufficient to win the contest.
Sanford divided their non-league
games with Biddeford, by the scores
of 11-10 and 20-1. The Mill City team
won the first game when Chet Miles
singled in the tenth to score the win-
ning run. In the second game, played
at Goodall Park, the Sanfordites bom-
barded the Black and Orange pitchers
for a one-sided victory.
The Capers proved too strong for
the Plush Towners in their meeting at
South Portland, and Sanford went
down to defeat by the score of 11-6.
Emery, Fallon’s starting pitcher, was
driven to the showers in the fourth in-
ning by a rally climaxed by Brownell's
home run. Merle Taylor, his succes-
sor. fared little better but was able to
last out the game.
Sanford, with Jack Waddington
pitching a sensational game, finished
the 1932 season with a victory over
Chevcrus. Although Jack had to be
relieved by Loubier in the ninth in-
ning. he deserved a great deal of credit
for his fine performance on the mound
in helping Sanford win a 5-4 victory.
As a result of this win. Sanford
went into a tie with Westbrook for
third place in the Telegram League
with six games won ami eight lost.
1933
With many veterans on hand. San-
ford opened their 1933 season with
high hopes of causing plenty of trou-
ble to all teams in the Telegram
League. Only three positions, first.
second, the catching department, were
vacated by graduation; but they
were soon well taken care of by Wall-
ingford. P. Charette, and McHugh.
Hal Loubier. Currier, and Wiggin
formed the pitching staff.
Because of bad weather, the open-
ing game with South Portland on Pat-
riot’s Day was postponed, and Sanford
met Westbrook al the Paper City the
following week. Despite unfavorable
weather, a very exciting game was
played, and Sanford came out on top
by the close score of 6-5. The Red
and White aggregation won out in the
ninth inning when Dexter, our right
fielder, singled and scored Loubier. Al-
though a total of 13 misplays were
chalked up by both teams, brilliant
fielding plays, especially by Captain
Dube, were exhibited. Wallingford’s
good hitting, combined with Loubier’s
fine all round work, was a great factor
in helping Sanford win its first game
of the season.
PAGE SEVENTY-SIX
Although Loubier pitched a re-
markable game of ball for Sanford's
first home contest. South Portland
succeeded in winning lhe game by tak-
ing advantage of three very costly er-
rors committed by the home boys.
Sanford’s outhitting the Capers ten to
eight and striking out fourteen of
Harry Mape's boys was not enough to
overcome the visitors’ lead, and San-
ford was forced to accept a 4-2 set-
back. Captain Dube contributed some
fine hitting for the home boys.
McKone made his first appearance
at second base when P. Charette was
shifted to short for the Deering game.
With Loubier's brilliant hurling and
Sanford's fourteen hits secured against
the two Purple pitchers, the Red and
White annexed a 13-0 victory. P.
Charette. Binnette, and McHugh
helped themselves to three hits apiece
during the contest.
Tn a non-league game at Saco, San-
ford met with a defeat by the score
of 9-8. Several of our regulars did not
play, thereby giving the substitutes a
chance to show their wares. Wiggin.
who started the game, had to be re-
lieved by Currier. At the time, the
bases were well occupied, but Currier
did a good job by retiring the sides in
quick order.
McHugh was lhe star of the game
when Sanford defeated the Fighting
Irish 3-2. With one run behind.
Mickey came through with a terrific
home run to deep center field to score
the tying run. He later scored the
winning tally on McKone’s double.
Hal Loubier again displayed some
verv effective pitching by holding
Chcverus to four hits.
In another non-league game with
Thornton, Sanford took revenge by
downing the Academy boys by the
score of 7-3. Sanford’s burly south-
paw, Harlow Currier, allowed the
Maroon and Gold lads only seven hits;
and with the heavy hitting of Binnette
and McHugh, he was able to win his
first game.
Portland was able to make only
five hits against the Sanford hurler,
Loubier; and they were defeated 11-0
at Goodall Park. Charette and Dube
accounted for half of Sanford’s twelve
hits. The big rally came in the lucky
seventh when the Red and White team
batted around and scored six runs.
Dexter turned in the fielding features
of the game by making two spectacu-
lar catches in right field. Because of
this win. Sanford had gained posses-
sion of first place in the Telegram
League.
Girouard, Biddeford pitcher, struck
out 22 Sanford batters in a non-league
contest and won a one-sided victory
by the score of 15-1. Many Sanford
substitutes had a chance to play dur-
ing this game. The Plush Towners
were able to make only three scattered
hits against the Orange and Black’s
twelve hits, which included two home
runs bv Lisica. Loubier was being
saved for the league game with South
Portland and was unable to oppose
Coach White's freshman southpaw.
In a hard fought game at the Cape.
Sanford lost a 1-0 game to the South
Portland nine. An error in the third
inning allowed a Caper to reach sec-
ond base and later to score the onlv
run of the game. Each pitcher allowed
onlv four hits apiece; however. Ker-
shaw fanned 15 San lard batters to
Loubier's half dozen strikeouts. Tn
addition Kershaw had faultless support
from his teammates. The Capers
forced Sanford into a triple tie for the
league sunberth.
Sanford lost its tie for first place
in the Telegram League when thev
were nosed out 2-1 bv Westbrook. The
game was a pitching duel between
Shane of Westbrook and Loubier. The
Paper Citv bovs won the game in the
second and third innings with the help
of two costlv errors bv Sanford. Dube
and Dexter turned in some great field-
ing plays.
By downing the Fighting Trish bv
the score of 12-5, Sanford ended its
PAGE SEVENTY-SEVEN
losing streak. Every member of the
home team made at least one hit
against the Purple's pitchers. Mc-
Kone’s work at second base during the
day was remarkable and sensational.
I le robbed the Cheverus players of sev-
eral hits with his masterful exhibition
at the keystone sack.
The return non-league game with
Biddeford at Goodall Park resulted in
another loss for Sanford, at the hands
of Girouard. The Plush Towner's sec-
ond team started the game with Far-
well pitching. He hurled fairly good
ball; however, he was given rugged
support by the team which made eight
errors.
After a hard fight. Sanford man-
aged to pull out a 5-2 victory over
Deering at Memorial Feld. Although
the Purple outhit the Red and W hite
team, errors proved costly to Deering.
Two fast double plays by Sanford
were the outstanding fcaures of the
game.
The final game of the season be-
tween Sanford and Portland at the
stadium ended in a 10-0 win for San-
ford. Louhier was in his usual good
form and allowed the city boys a mea-
ger three hits. Wallingford ended a
successful season by hitting a home
run. double and single. Binette also
got three hits.
The 1933 season resulted in one of
the most successful seasons in some
time for the Plush Towners. They
won seven out of ten league games
and finished second in the standing.
In addition to this splendid showing
of the team, four members of the Red
and White nine won individual honors.
Harold Louhier was picked leading
pitcher of the league; Eriel Dube was
best third baseman; Havard Walling-
ford secured the first base job; and
John Binnette won the left field posi-
tion on the All-Telegram Team.
1934
Having only three positions to fill.
Sanford looked forward to having one
of its most successful seasons. W ith
Vennell doing the receiving, McKeon
playing first base. Senechai occupying
short. an<l veterans taking care of the
other positions, Sanford opened its
1934 season with a 7-0 victory over
Deering. Frasee, the Purple hurler,
kept Sanford well in hand for seven
innings, allowing but three scattered
hits up to that time. However, San-
ford had scored twice, once in the sec-
ond ami again in the third on errors
committed by the Deering infield. In
the eighth inning hard hitting by the
Plush Towners accounted for five runs
and the game. Captain Louhier. San-
ford star pitcher, had things pretty
much his own way, fanning twelve
men and allowing but two hits, and
was given air tight support by his
mates.
Sanford was upset by a strong
South Portland team a| the Cape field
by a score of 5-4. Although Sanford
outhit the Capers 10-6, they failed to
take advantage of the numerous op-
portunities afforded them. With St.
John fanning thirteen and being air-
tight in the pinches. Sanford was un-
able to overcome the lead which
Wayne Roberts’ boys had gained in
the fifth and sixth innings. Errors on
the part of the Plush Towners paved
the way for the Capers' victory. John-
ny Binnette continued his good hit-
ting by getting three hits in five times
at bat.
The Red and White team dropped
their second game of the season when
they went down to a 2-1 defeat before
Larry Gates’ Westbrook High nine.
The game was a pitcher’s battle all the
way between Hal Louhier and the slen-
der Paper City hurler, Craft. West-
brook outhit the Plush Towners by
eight hits to four. Strikeouts were
numerous, with Craft having fifteen
to his credit, ami Louhier chalking up
fourteen. The visitors’ first tally came
in the second inning when, with two
outs. Louhier issued a walk and al-
lowed two successive singles to score
PAGE SEVENTY-EIGHT
a. run. Their second marker came in
the fifth inning on two hits and a field-
er's choice. Two singles and a stolen
base gave the Fallonites their only
score of the game in the fifth.
Portland received a whitewashing
al Goodall Park when Hal Loubier al-
lowed them but two hits. The three
runs which thy Red and White boys
made on twelve hits were enough to
let them win easily a 3-0 victory. An
ususual play was executed by Port-
land when their lanky pitcher caught
a pop fly and turned it into a triple
play.
Hal Loubier being in his usual good
form and allowing the Cheverus bat-
ters only one hit. Sanford won its
third Telegram League game by the
score of 7-0. The Red and White
scored three runs in the second, three
in the third, and one in the seventh.
The main feature of the game was the
return to life of the Sanford batters,
who knocked out a total of twelve solid
nits against the Cheverus pitcher.
A 12-4 battle was fought on Mem-
orial Field between ijanford and Deer-
ing with the Sanfordites coming out
on top. Captain Loubier was unsteady
at times but managed to fan twelve
Purple players in seven innings. At
this time Porell went in for Sanford
to relieve Loubier. who was sent to
right field; and he proceeded to strike
out five of the seven Deeringites to
face him in the last two innings. Dur-
ing the game. Coach Graham’s boys
were able to make only three hits to
Sanford’s ten. Numerous errors were
made during the game; however, two
sensational fielding plays were contri-
buted by Me Kone and Dexter.
The Telegram League batting hon-
ors were still in Binnette’s possession;
and McKeon, the Red and White first
sacker, was not far from the top.
With six games played. Sanford has
a record of four victories and two de-
feats; and they are occupying second
place in the league standing. Although
South Portland is undefeated to date
in any league game, Sanford has a
chance of coming out on top; however,
it is a very slim chance.
Six positions will be vacated by
graduation in June; nevertheless, sev-
eral second team players should be
capable of taking care of some of the
jobs in another year. 'Hie Class of ’34
hopes that Coach Fallon and his future
baseball nines will have plenty of luck
and success in 'all their coming base-
ball campaigns.

THE REWARD OF AN INNOCENT
SPORT OR THE FATE OF
THE WATER SPURTERS
By BARBARA SHAFFER
One fair day last January, the
pupils of dear old Sanford High were
informed that they were hereafter, and
henceforth, to abide by new rules. We
were told that we had not been act-
ing as ladies and gentlemen should.
Far be it from us to contradict our
teachers!
Some of our liveliest pupils, both
girls and boys, had actually been seen
spurting water at each other in the
halls. (An average of about two
quarts a day, which decorated the
walls beautifully.)
This little act, this simple little, in-
nocent act tolled the death knoll of
our freedom, the details of which I am
about to relate.
In the first place one must go
quickly and quietly, without looking
left or right, from class to class. He
must not stop to converse about the
weather or exchange an innocent joke
or two. (Oh. the pity of it all!) Dark-
ening the corridors during recess is a
deed only the brave would attempt.
Walking three abreast is a dangerous
feat.
Before school, fifteen minutes to
be exact, each one must be in in his
home room studying (?). Some of
you heartless ones, some of you who
have never felt that sensation which
arises when caressed with spring
breezes, would see no cruelty in this
regulation. But even you most heart-
less ones would soften, I might say
melt, if you could witness the lovers
(Oh, yes, we have them) parting when
that fifteen minute bell shrills their
doom. One last look, one last endear-
ing glance and they must leave each
other, not to meet again for forty-five
minutes!
I have not told you, as yet. how
one is rewarded if he does break any
of the rules by knocking the dust oft’
rails, falling up stairs, or smiling with
sound-effects. (Many other actions
too numerous to mention). He is pre-
sented with a detention slip.
The above-mentioned is of a beau-
tiful shade of blue, a shade comforting
to the eye, restful to the soul, in fact.
a hue that artists would rave over.
Even pupils have been known to rave
over them. On this creation is a form-
al invitation to the unfortunate pupil
to spend hours, more or less, with dear
teacher that very afternoon. Invari-
ably one accepts the invitation.
So this, mv readers, is the reward
bestowed upon our playful pupils,
(bless their souls) in trying to amuse
their teachers.
