Excerpt from History of the Class of 1911, Yale College, Vol. 1 These Titanic struggles, which took place in a ring encircled by row upon row of excited, derisive, and sympathetic classmates and upper classmen, called forth the ablest gladiatorial talent from both our ranks and those of the Sophomores\ The college walls even now faintly re-echo the wild paeans of conquest with which our triumphant class rent the startled, tobacco-ridden air, when victory folded her airy pinions and alighted on our standards. Bartlett won over Sweeney; and although Livingston lost to Bradley, the mettle of 1911 when first tried was not found wanting, when Bill Prime overthrew Roberts in the final bout. In this victory the class of 1911 had taken the first step in its triumphant march toward the exalted position it later occupied in the college world.

Excerpt from Fond Memories of the Class of 1911: Fitchburg High School History is a drama enacted on the theatre of time, with sons for stars and eternity for a background - Carlyle. HE duty of the class historian is both a difficult and a pleasant one. It is difficult because she realizes her inability to write a history in language eloquent enough to do justice to the noble record and wonderful achievements of the class of 1911. It is pleasant because in reviewing all of these illustrious deeds, opportunity is given for writing about what is worthy of the rivalry of other classes. Ever since we entered the doors of the Fitchburg High School as a class, we have stood prominently in intellectual, athletic and social spheres. Unlike other freshmen we entered the much-dreaded school with stout, unwavering hearts. We surprised the faculty by our almost superhuman knowledge and immediately excited the envy of every other class. We were determined to derive the greatest possible benefit from our four years' course, and one glance at our noble foreheads will prove that our minds have been broadened to the fullest extent. During our Sophomore year brilliant success followed us, and not only were we praised by our beloved teachers, but also we were held up as examples for the entering class. In September, 1909, we held our first class elections at which we chose our motto, Carpe Diem. That we have lived up to our inspiring motto is readily perceived when we think of the many incredible feats which have been accomplished by us. During our Junior year we were such great rivals of the Seniors that in their vain efforts to eclipse us, nearly all the members of that class were suffering from nervous prostration before they received their diplomas. We have become distinguished by being the first in the school to have graduated a class from the Industrial Course which has become famous throughout the country. When time in its ceaseless flight, aided by a just, though stern faculty, made us Seniors, we knew that we had reached that much longed-for goal. Now we look back upon our four years' course with a feeling that we have done our best. Our past is resplendent; our present, glorious, and our future promising, for our ambition is lofty and, exalted desire is the best guard and guarantee against defeat.
