ANGELO RAFTOPOULAS 893 Broadway When Angelo entered Arts High he met ‘‘Jerry”’ and they have been inseparable ever since. His work in the commercial art field has always been of fine quality. The Scope has been benefited by his humorous cartoons of ‘‘Earle’’ which were usually made up during his favorite period—4th period lunch, of course. Angelo's interests have been in swimming, horseback riding, and bike riding. After graduation he will help Uncle Sam to victory and DRIPH ROCCO: -' 6 3°87 High Street. then continue his art work. MICHELE RICCIARDI - - 890 DeGraw Avenue For a supposedly quiet guy, Mike makes an aw- ful lot of noise. But then, only those who don’t know him would call him quiet. A swell fellow to know, Mike is a hard working member of the Vignette Staff and a real student. He says he wants to be an artist, whether it's houses or pictures he wants to paint, he didn't say—but when he becomes a top- notch commercial artist, don't say | didn't warn you. Ralph has been a pretty busy fellow since he en- tered Arts High. His scholastic record is a very fine one—and he held down a job after school, too. More than one prize has been awarded Ralph for his art work. In April, he was taken over by the Navy, where he hopes to put his art to use in the Camouflage Department. We're proud of you, Ralph, and know you'll be able to do what you set out to do. GUSSIE ROSSILLI - - - - 2412 Webster Street Gussie is that tall, slim girl with a sunny disposi- tion, which makes her a good classmate and stu- dent. She holds everyone's interest with those cute little jokes. Gussie has been in the Dramatic Club for one half of a year and was a member of the Student Patrol. She is undecided in her ambitions for the future because she says, ‘‘with the world as it is today, it is very hard for anyone to decide.” We wish her success in the business world.

GEORGE PETERSEN - - - - 249 16th Avenue George is a quiet and reserved sort of fellow. But you heard that old saying: ‘‘You can't judge a book by its cover.'’ George hasn't taken part as a mem- ber of any clubs during his four years in Arts High, ‘but has missed few days being in school, doing his regular school work. Some day in the near future his classmates will probably be reading about him in the newspapers as a war hero. ANN PIZZANELLI - - - 193 South 6th Street ‘| dream of Annie with the long, black hair.’’ Ann has been a faithful member of the choir for four years.

When Ann graduates, she expects to continue her art training until she is old enough to join the W.A.A.C. ROSE PIZZUOLO - - - 462 North 6th Street Rosie may be short, but she never goes unnoticed.

Rose en- joys bowling a great deal and belonged to the Bowling Club. After graduation Rose hopes to at- tend college and become a music teacher. ROBERT POSTER - - - 159 Chancellor Avenue If you should see a couple of girls walking by in the halls and sighing their hearts away you'll know ‘Bob’ has been around. Bob has been a member of the Swimming Team and one of the star players on our Basketball Team. He has always been ath- letically inclined inside and outside of school. Al- though we know Bob would like to become an artist, he now wants to get into the Army Air Corps.
