High school paper

The June 4, 1937, issue of The Classical Recorder from Classical High School, in Springfield, Mass., featured a lead article reporting that Leary had been named the paper's editor for the following school year.

"During the past year Tim has distinguished himself as a sports reporter; a number of sparkling hockey, basketball, baseball and intramural write-ups have come from his pen," the paper reported. "He also has to his credit several lead news articles and a number of the best editorials of the year."
