(iosh, it’s kind of lonesome sitting up in the corner seat in Study Hall. But then, you have penty of privacy while writing those lovely letters to Keene, Springfield—and, oh yes, Rutland!

Another of the boys who shared the honor of attending the Southern Ver- mont Basketball Tournament and did an excellent job. Fair Haven is quite a ways, especially in these days when gas and tires are rationed. Better days are coming, Dave, cheer up. KENNETH THAYER College Kenny She floats upon the river of his thoughts Skiing, 1; Basketball, 1; Glee Club, 2; Junior Prom, 3; Senior Bazaar, 4. Kenny’s interest can be found in the Junior Class, and although he’s had quite a lot of competition, he is doing all right for himself. We wonder where you get all the gas to go running around. You can’t do that in the Air Corps, Ken. HELEN TOUSSAINT General 2 ” “ Better three hours too soon than a minute too late Basketball, 1, 4; Blood Plasma Bank Drive, 4 With just whom do you go, Helen, or do you like them all? You spend so much time with the Wing Scouts and your other duties that we don’t see how you have time for anything else. Perhaps that's why you spent so much of your Sociology period writing letters. EVELYN TROMBLEY Commercial Erie On with the Dance! Let Joy be unconfined! Social Science Club, 1. With rings on her fingers and dancing in her toes, she thinks of Leo where- ever she goes. Evie can be found at a Grange dance, or out at the Sons of t nion Veterans Hall. She also happens to be one of the lucky girls that have steady bov friends. Nice going, Evie.

THE SAMPLER 17 MARILYN SIMONDS Commercial Mickey” Politeness costs nothing and (joins everything Mickey can he seen in typing room night after night heating out haunting rhythm on the keyboard. Bet she gets it from that drummer she spends so much time with. WALTER SMITH General “SmiUy” “ Men of few words ore the best men Senior Hop, 3; Senior Bazaar, 4; School Column, 4. Smitty is the handsome lad from Westminster. Although a lot of girls would like to know him better, nobody can understand Walter's not having a girl friend—or two. He certainly attracts them, but then, they say “by keep- ing them off, you keep them on. RICHARD STEVENS General “ Dickie A truly modest fellow Junior Prom, 3. 'I’he quietest, most modest hoy in the class. Ichabod doesn’t say much, hut we can bet he does a lot of thinking. lie's another one to answer Uncle Sam’s call, this time to the Navy. Best of Luck, Dick! ROBERT STOWELL General “Bob “ I're heard the chimes at midnight Whether it's Keene or Bellows Falls, it's not often that Boh is without a girl; the worst part of it is that he never has the same one. With his two “Cronies, Jack and Bud, Boh gets around. We wonder why you make your daily trip out of doors after cafeteria. Fresh air for your health, we imagine ROBERT STREETER College Preparatory Bob ' A wo'f among ladies is a dreadful thing Bazaar Committee, 3, 4: Harmony Class, 4; Glee Club, I, 'i Dramatics, 4, 4; School Column, 3. “O Robert, That's right, you guessed it. It's those Femmes Fatales running after Robert, most likely wanting him to take them to Boston or to a Basketball game. Must he those blonde curls that lead the girls on so; and Boh doesn’t mind a hit.

That brown hair and those sparkling brown eyes make for a delightful date. There’s no man shortage as far as Ginnie is concerned. MARION WILCOX Commercial “Marion” “ am the very pink of courtesy ” Social Science Club, 1. Marion proved her ability as the best speller in the class. She can spell anything from eat to pinacotheca. Working, or rather vacationing in Maine seems to appeal to Marion in a big way. SERVICE TRIBUTE The following members of the Class of 1944 have entered the Armed Forces.
