T II E S A M P L E K 17 RICHARD LONG General Tut “ We find no eril in this wan Baseball 4; Junior Prom 3; Senior Hop 3; Senior Bazaar 4; S. A. B. 4; Sophomore'Night 2; Junior Night 3; Play Night 3. Whenever the words are flying thick and fast, there's where you’ll find Tut. From the sporting world to the Post Office Department he has a ready word for every line. Every time warnings come out we all run to Tut to see how we fared. You see, he carries the mail. He’s got a pretty steady record, too. Three years with the same girl. Tut’s always got a smile on his face and a dollar in his pocket to lend you. We’re going to miss that cheerful smile and snappy comeback, but undoubtedly our loss is someone’s gain. ELEANOR MAC KEE General Fib Nothing is ini possible to a willing heart Basketball 1, 2, 3, 4; Interclass Basketball 2, 3, 4; Band and Orchestra I, 2; Glee Club 1, 3, 4; Latin Club 1, 2; Spotlight Club 4; Senior Hop 2, 3; Junior Prom 3; Thanksgiving Ball 3, 4; Operetta 3, 4; Christmas Cantata 4; Easter Cantata 3. Fib was the mainspring of the Jones’sextet this year and she has cer- tainly proved her ability on the court. A typical all-around girl, she has great singing talent. She is a sports fan and she has,—well she just has Mel. If you’re in study hall and in the distance, maybe down in the gym, you hear a veil, you just automatically know it’s Eleanor. The best of luck in your future life. EDWARD MASTEN College Eddie “11 ’ords are women; deeds are men Varsity Basketball 2, 3, 4; Varsity Football 2, 3, 4; Tennis 2; Latin Club 1. 2: Dramatics 2, 3, 4: Junior Prom 1, 2: Senior Bazaar 1, 2, 3; Thanksgiving Ball 4; Senior Hop 1, 2; Knave of Hearts 2; Plavnight 3. What would the football team have done without that end? And where would the basketball five have been without that guard? Of course we mean Eddie. Eddie held down a job at the station, occupied a seat in Room 11, got his letter in sports and somehow managed to find time for something else, girls! But how is it, Eddie, that you got so confused in trig class? REUBEN MILLER College Rube Well, maybe just one to be sociable Tennis 3; J. V. Basketball 4; Glee Club 4; Latin Hub 2, 3, Vice-President 2, 3; Spotlight Club 2, 3, 4, Vice-President 3, 4; Junior Prom 3; Thanksgiving Ball 4; Hi! Schooler Editor-in-chief 3; “Knave of Hearts’’ 2; Christmas Trimmings” 2; “Pyramus and Thisbe” 2; Sophomore Site 2; “Christmas Goose” 3; Junior Nite 3; “In an Old Kentucky Garden” 4; S. A. B. 3, 4. Consideringall thedifferent women you see him with, it remains a mystery as to how he manages to stay a happy bachelor. Or docs he? Rumor has it that Rube prefers the out-of-town girls, everywhere from Keene to Rutland. Quite a territory, but well-covered. If you want to see that contagious smile spread over his face, ask him about those trips to Roseland with Bud and Ray. We’re sure this lad’s got a great future ahead of him. already having shown his ability as head of the Youth Center this year. LEWIS MOORE General Lewie Sighed and looked and sighed again Football 4; Band 1: Glee Club 1, 4; Orchestra 1; Spotlight Club 3, 4; Prom 3; Hi! Schooler 3; Christmas Cantata 4; Sophomore Night 2; Junior Junior Night 3; “A Wedding” 4. The sheik of our class, Lewie’s noted for his smooth talking and fast driv- ing. Anything he gets into, and that’s a lot, he’s sure to talk his way out of it. His car certainly gets a work-out on those mile-a-minute jaunts to Claremont, Keene and Springfield. But now the call of North Westminster, or more exactly, Gageville. has got Lewis until somebody can show him something better. And not in the line of curs either!

16 T II E S A M P I, E R HOLLON KELTON (ieneral “ Pete ' “ shall laugh tut self to death” Football 3, I; Monitor 1. Ah! Pete! He’s the boy with the lopsided grin and the devilish gleam in his eye. Pete was a boy who backed the football team with all his worth Football has been his main interest with the beginning of school. However, the Junior C'lass also holds his interest! We can’t mention names on this “page.” Ask Pete how he gets his studying done! Now we leave him to the navy. PATRICIA LAKE College “Patty “Why hurry—irhat's the use? Interclass basketball 3, 4; Interclass volleyball 4; Glee Club I, 4, Vice- President 4; Latin Club 2, 3; Spotlight Club 2, 3, 4; Spanish Club 3; Junior From 2; Sophomore Night 2; Junior Night 3; Playnite 4; “In An Old Kentucky Garden” 4; Senior Night 4; Monitor 4; Hi! Schooler 3; Senior Sampler, 4; All- state (ilee Club 4. When this little blonde winks, she gets them from six to sixty! Can you blame them? Say Patty, how’s the Coast Guard? Patty is a cute girl with a gay personality and, what’s more, she has a voice like Pons. And that’s why she has gone a long way in (ilee Club this year. If you’ve heard her voice, you know how sweet it is. We hope you continue with music, Patty, and someday, who knows, you may be a famous singer. FKNTON LAWLOR (ieneral “Red “ can be pushed just so far“ J. V. Football 1; Varsity 3, 4; Basket ball 4; Baseball 4; (ilee Club 4;(’hrist- mas Cantata 4; Faster Cantata 4; Mixed Glee Club 4; I atin Club 2, 3, 4; Spot- light Club 3, 4; Junior Prom 3; Senior Hop 3; Thanksgiving Ball 4; Hi! Schooler 3; Junior Night 3; Sophomore Night 2; Playnight 4; “Old Kentucky Garden” 4. Here, ladies and gentlemen, you have the treasure of the basketba’l team. Bed made a splendid manager and deserves credit for the wonderful job he did. Our team was safe and well-taken care of in his capable hands. Fenton is a good stage hand and he has helped out there so many times he should know- backstage like his back yard. He was also active in glee club and athletics. That was our Red. that went plunging through the lines in football season. And as for girls—well, we think he gets around in that field too. GERTRUDE LAWLOR General “Hetty “ hare learned In trhatsoeeer state I am to be content” Spotlight Club 3; Latin Club 3; Home Economics Club 4; A. A. Dance 3; Thanksgiving Ball 3; Senior Hop 3; Freshman Reception 4; Playnight 2, 3; Hi! Schooler 3; Home Room Representative 3; Librarian 3. This is the little girl whose heart belongs to Alstead. Doesn’t your mother get tired answering phone calls? And doesn’t Dave get tired riding his bicycle from Alstead? Oh yes, we hear that he’s got a ’41 Buick. What would the (irange do without Betty? By the way, what happened in Burlington, or don’t you care to say? You can always be sure that her week-ends are taken up. Betty’s always got that gum of hers. Good luck, and keep smiling! GEORGETTE LK BLANC College “Gette “For the present, go thy tray (ilee Club I; Latin Club 2, 3, 4; Christmas Tea Dance 3; Freshman Re- ception 4; Hi! Schooler 3. Did someone say that Gette is juiet? Oh no! Just wait until she gets started: there’s no stopping her! Especially when she insists that there’s a half inch to be added to that other sixty. How did the half-inch fare against those tall northern boys? Gette is an ideal picture of the petite French dam- sel,—cute.vivacious, intelligent, along with that certain something you hear so much about in French girls.

IS T HE S A M P L E H SHIRLEV MOORE Commercial “Chicken” ” If you stop to hr kind, you must swerrc often from your path ” Shirl is a very cfiiiet girl and one of the most popular in the class. Al- though Sliirl has had many hoy friends, she seems to have found the right one. She is an active member of the Grange. We hear you have lots of fun. She also works in Newberry’s, either as floor girl or smiling at you from behind the toy counter. Shirl answers so many bells in Newberry’s, she jumps to answer any bell sound. Good luck to you and, well, we won’t mention names. WILLIAM MOREY General “Billy” “ ow forceful arc right. words” Track 1; Football 2, If; Junior Music Committee 8; Spotlight Club 1. i, 8, I; Junior Prom i, 8; Senior Hop 8; “Who Says Can’t” 1; Playnight £, 3. Lilly is the pride of the Senior ( lass, our veteran. He’s the young man who always has a smile for you and usually has something to say. Rill was an air cadet for fourteen months and he had some pretty rigid classes, if that’s what they call them in the army, but ask him about his trig! Then stand back. Things begin to fly. Rut an aeronautical engineer needs tons of math and then some! FRED MORSE General “ Rabbit” “Lore orcrcomcs all obstacles” Football 3, I; Raseball 4 Here is the all-around sportsman. Sports, women and fun! These make life for Freddie, the guy who played a game of football that took your breath away. Where would we have been without him! He’s popular and no wonder, with his ready smile and easy manner. With personality and good humor, friendship with Freddie is a pleasure. RUTH MORSE General “Buthie” “ Rut hie had a ball of wool and needles white as snow, And everywhere that But hie wen', her knitting was sure to go” Interclass Volleyball 4; Interclass Basketball 4; Glee Club 1; Thanks- giving Rail 4. We really would like to know how many stitches Rut hie has knit in the last four years. Rut knitting is not her only pastime. She likes sports, fun and exciting moments. You can never find her at home. We wonder where she spends all her time. She also has all the experience she needs to make future life happy for herself and someone else. ANNA NO ES Commercial “Anna” “ Truth is the highest thing man may keep” Volleyball 8; Interclass Basketball i: Monitor 3, 4; Senior Sampler, Art Editor 4; Hi! Schooler 3, 4. This senior accomplishes a lot of work in a day. If you doubt it, go up to Room ii after school some night and you’ll see iier pounding away on the typewriter. Sometimes we wonder how Mr. Bedrick would manage without her to do his typing for him. And did you ever see her oil paintings that dec- orate the walls of Room il? They are really something! And a pat on the back. Anna, for the swell job you did as art editor of the Senior Sampler.
