Hi T H E S A M P L E R EDWARD KISS ELL Genera' Eddie “.1 good sport is somebody worth while' Baseball 1, 2; J. V. Football 8; Basketball 1. Eddie is one of those quiet (???) boys from North Walpole. What Eddie does in his npare time, that is on his nights off from the Opera House, is bevond us, but we can bet that it isn’t spending a peaceful evening at home. When you hear roars of laughter issuing from the back of study hall, it’s just Eddie letting loose with another one of his masterpieces. How he can remember all those formulas in chemistry is beyond us, but he does it. With his determina- tion he is sure to go far. RUTH LAKE General “Huihie The silent girl is the best to listen to Softball 8; Basketball .8; Interclass Volleyball 8; Field Hockey 1; Chorus 2; Glee Club 8, 4; Operetta 8; Home Ec Club 2, 8. Kuth-with the soft voice and quiet manner. Yes, she may seem quiet but, when you aren’t looking, she really gets things done. Do you want to know anything about Peter the Great or perhaps the (lates of the French Revolution? Well, then, just consult Ruth, the history expert of the class. She is one of the few who always has iier homework done. But besides accomplishing this feat Ruth manages a busy life outside of school. We’re glad you’re graduating with us Ruth, and may you have success. SHIRLEY LAKE Commercial Skirl In the twinkling of an eye Interclass Basketball 4; B. F.; Interclass Hockey 1; Chorus 1, Robinson Seminary, Exeter, N. II. Do you know of a gal in our class who actually gets about the school quiet- ly? Well, in case you don’t know it’s Shirley, the gal who has the job of running from room to room every morning collecting those little pink slips of paper. How she manages to have so much pep at that time of the morning is beyond us. Shirl is always seen with sister Ruth. They prove that sisters really can get along together. Shirl is a competent secretary. Keep it up! 'm CHARLES LAM LEIX College Chuck Men of few words are the best men •L V. Basketball 8; Glee Club 2; Latin Club 1, 2; Spotlight Club 8, 1; Senior Hop 3; Sock Dance 8; Football Formal 4; Hi! Schooler 8; Office Assist- ant 4. Being such a noisy class, it’s a wonder there is anyone as quiet as Chuck in it. Chuck is one of the more industrious boys of the class. He’s shy but has a mischievous eye by which you can tell he isn’t always so quiet. In chemistry he has proven to be one of the class’s leading chemists. Who knows maybe some day you’ll be famous. Sometimes we wonder what Dan will do without his star worker. Chuck is usually seen fixing some of the school’s property. Here’s luck to you, in your college career. BEVERLY LAMPHERE Commercial Rev Flirtation without intention (ilee Club 1, 2, 3, 4; Band 1, 2, 3, 4; Football Formal 4; Sock Dance 3. Ah! Here’s our sweet gal with the Ipana smile who hails from Gageville. Bev has done a splendid job as drum majorette plus being one of the band’s greatest assets. She has had many love affairs, but at present a certain lad from over the river is in the limelight. Bev is another gal gifted with looks and personality. Both of these add up to a swell friend. Perhaps that’s why she has so many admirers.

T HE S A M P L E R 15 MARION Hl’RLBURT Commercial Manny” Laughter is her joy” Inlerclass Volleyball 4: Interclass Softball 4; dee Club 2, 4; Operetta 8. Marion’s the girl with the hearty laugh and friendly smile. She’s seldom seen with a frown on her face. Ask her what her favorite subject is and with- out hesitation she’ll say,‘‘TV PI NO.” She’s another member of the pro up that spends so much time in the typing room. And they’re not up there just to keep Miss Santamaria company either, they’ll inform you. She’s a good friend an.l one you always like to have around. MARION JEANNOTTE General Manny” If you slop to he hind, yon must swerre often from your path” Cafeteria. Marion seems to be busy all the time, whether it’s getting her assignments done or working busily at Benny’s. She is a very industrious cafeteria worker. But at times she keeps the cashier’s time occupied too. Oh well, we would too! Marion is on the quiet side, but yet she is a very friendly person. She is one of the few people in the class who always has her assignments done and done right. We envy her ambition. BERNICE JOHNSON General “Bernice” “Hernice, like all good women, has a temper of her own” Interclass Basketball 1; Librarian 8; Cafeteria; Junior Prom, 3; Junior High Tournament 4. Here’s the blonde bomber from North Walpole. What is it they say? “Gentlemen prefer blondes.” Bernice has her share of men, so we’ll agree that i s true. She went to all the tournaments in Rutland, but of course, it was the tournament that wa the big attraction. At least that’s what she says. But we think differently on the subject! Bernice is another gal who always seems to be in a fix. J. J. Newberry’s is quite a place to work, isn’t it! You meet more people! Nursing is her future and this profession gains a No. 1 candidate. JOSEPH JOY General Bobby” “ The more we argued the question, the more we didn’t agree” Operetta 4; Baseball Basketball Monitor 3. 4; Captain, Curtis Drive 4; Spotlight. Club 4. Bobby is the boy who is always ready to hop in an I take over every situa- tion that may arise. He has set a good many feminine hearts a-Hutter, but seems to favor a sophomore. With his personality ai d wit he has won many friends in both sets. Bobby is one who will get by in everything he doc . Just keep on making everyone as happy as you’ve made us, and you’ll always get by. STAN LEY KARPINSKI College Karp” “.4 wo'f among ladies is an awful thing” Football 1. 4, 3, 4; Baseball Manager I; Basketball Manager i, I; Basket- ball 1; Spotlight Club 3; Junior Prom 3; Thanksgiving Ball 4; Hi! Schooler 4; Operetta 4; “June Mad” 4; Monitor 4. Here is one of the senior class’s star athletes. This lad, who hails from North Walpole, never leaves the cl a s with a dull moment. You certainly cause Mr. MacCarthy some baffling moments but without them sociology wouldn’t be any fun. Buddy has shown quite an interest in females this year, but we won’t go into that. This jovial, good-natured fellow has proven him- self one of the outstanding members of the class.

Besides having artistic talent, Clara is a superb actress and the Home Economics department’s pride and joy. Clara’s had her share of the men too!! Here’s luck to you. PAUL MC AULIFFE General Mae Sever trouble troub'e, till troub'e troub'es you Please don’t ever ask Paul what course he’s taking because we warn you you’ll be just as confused when you get through as when you started. Paul is our number one morale builder. We feel sorry for all the classes that can’t have Paul with them cr ckin jokes on blue Monday morning. He’s a frien 1 to all. Women in his life? You’ll have to ask Paul about that! You’ll go far with your friendly way SAMUEL MERCURIO General Sam” The world's ugly, aye, as sin—and almost as de’ightfuT Football 1, 2, 3; Basketball 1; Glee Club 1, 'i, 3, 4; Spotlight 3, 4; Special Glee (’I ub 3,4; Latin Club l;“Gypsy Rover” S; In An Old Kentucky Garden” 3; “A Spanish Custom 4; “A Message From Khufu 4;Vermont Music Festival 3, 4; New England Music Festival 4; Portsmouth Music Festival 4’ Spring Con- certs 3, 4; Christmas Cantata 3, 4. Here is the class Casanova. Sam is well known in every place within a radius of one hundred miles. He’s tall, good-looking, and, oh what a voice! Sam is another frequent visitor to Springfield. He says he goes for the ride, but we know differently. He has had many girls, and we wonder which he prefers —blondes, brunettes, or redheads. lie’s had his share of all. He has a pleasant manner that gets him things. Who knows! Maybe some day when you’re listening to your radi», you’ll hear “Songs by Mercurio.’ ELSIE MILLS General Elsie My heart is true as steel Glee (’lub 1, ■£. Did you ever see a dream walking? That’s our Elsie from Westminster. She’s so small and sweet but ooh! When you see her, she always has some- thing to do. But she’s never in very much of a hurry. Right. Elsie? Just ask her about her “hero” and she'll tell you. W o? Why, Juny, of course. Elsie has a cute manner and good disp sition, which will get her a long way. She’s lovely to look at and very shy. Congratulations for walking off with “best-looking girl” notable! EVELYN MINER General Erie She is preVy to wa'lc irith awl witty to ta’k with an I p'e isunt, too, to think■ on! Interelass Basketball 4; Interclass Volleyball 4: Senior Hop 3; Football Formal 3; Sock Dance 3; Junior Prom 3: Homeroom Treasurer 3. Evie came to us as a Junior and immediately captured our hearts. We are sure Whitcomb’s couldn’t get along without her to greet their customers with that sunny smile. As for the opposite sex -either keep your boy friends out of sight or steer clear of Evie. But there really is nothing to worryabout as a certain local ex-sailor has the situation well in hand. With your charming personality you are bound to have success wherever you go.
