HOWE-ITE CLASS PROPHECY EVELYN PEASLEE finished the best season of her career as football coach of the Pinehurst Bruisers, an all-girl team. PAMELA PELLETIER and ALICE WANCEWICZ have been seen lately playing Brenda and Cobina in Kearney Square, Lowell, and it wasn't just for fun. It looked as though DOT CONDON and BOB INNIS would be middle- aisling it for a time, but of late his attentions have turned to RUTH LOWE, 1955 debutante. Bob is heir to the Innis-McLellan Ice Company. DOT HARVIE is making the round of the night clubs in New York. Dot, by the way, is the present Queen of the Tasselsf' ELAINE BICKFOIRD is a medical secretary. She poked her nose into an operation one day. Half of it was snipped off, and now she keeps the rest out of other people's business. EDDIE BOCKO is teaching commercial subjects and coaching football in Chelmsford High School. Chelmsford got so tired of Ho-we's beating them that they hired an old Howe man to teach them something. EVELYN CHENEY is working in a local store. She has been cited again this year for promoting the most sales. We think that it must be that cave-man technique she employs. LILLIAN CONNOLLY is a professional golfer. She has a hard time getting her caddie a golf-club necktie after she makes a bad shot, and it isn't very often. GEORGE MacARTHUR went ahead and joined the army-anyway- and has been -going ahead by leaps and bounds. All George has to do is say, My name is MacArthur, and why shouldn't he go places with a name like that? EARL MATHESON was kicked out of college for making wi-se cracks at the economics professor. He could not help himself. He says, The habit I acquired in high school was too much for me to overcome. PAUL HOULNE is still held in esteem for his basketball playing on the Good-wins. He took Mr. Brenner's position away from him. J UANITA CLARK and FAY LLOYD have opened a most extraordin- ary hatshop at Billerica Centre. They advertise that their hats will actu- ally cover a woman's head. ELEANOR O'HARE has finished her great comedy in three acts, The Life and Loves of LOUISE O'HARA. LOIS GREENWOOD has been having a hectic time of it for the last two weeks. Measles have been raising havoc in the Greenwood Day Nursery on Andover Road. DORIS GRANFIELD, SALLY QUIGLEY, and MILDRED LARSON, the popular Rhythm Girls, are popularizing their latest song, Four Years in the Wrong High School at the Toro Doro Club. BEA OLIVIERI, former basketball player at Howe High, is still scanning the Sun's All-Star team of '42, hoping to see her name among the forwards. FRANK PARDY, the man with the nose for news has reorganized his one time scandal sheet, Dirt Diggers' Review. It now bears the slo- gan, We print what Winchell doesn't dare. And that, my friends, is the dirt. FRANK PARDY, Chairman HELEN SIPPRELL CAROLYN PLUMLEY 126,

HOWE-ITE CLASS PROPHECY to drive it-CHARLOTTE DZIURKIEWICZ. PHILIP BUKER was forced to close his latest production, Revivals of the Can-Can, due to the shortage not only of tin, but clothes. His two leading ladies, Lulu and Arabella, formerly JUNE CAPEN and EILEEN CAREY, have gone over to DICK GORDON'S new production, Rendez- vous. JUNE FORBES'S heifers and BETTY BROWN'S chickens won top honors at the Topstield Fair again this year. MILDRED BONZAR and MILBURN DIXON have finally set the date. It took MILBURN thirteen years to say yes, CHRISTINE BAILEY and FLORENCE NIGHTINGALE FIELD are serving as Red Cross nurses in Persia. Both girls like their profession and claim there are three men to one woman over there. Some change from high school days Z! RUTH CARTER has a kindergarten. Her pupils are the best man- nered in town-not that they are afraid of her or anything like that. SHIRLEY ANDERSON, the mother of four children, amuses her neighbors by the way she calls her children. She calls them as her husband, a train conductor, announces stations. MARJORIE DUNCAN la Pons has just returned from Europe and a concert tour. Her clear soprano enraptures her accompanist, ALICE DOHERTY, who sits and gazes at her soulfully through every performance. DOUGLAS JUDD, after raising a moustache, was mistaken for Hitler and shot about five years ago. ELISE WHITE was sued for libel by JAMES SCOTCHY RICHARD- SON for running an article in her daily column, Elise White's Scandals, which stated that Scotchy had been seen leaving the dressing room of ANN POMANACKI, the Pprruutt girl who just won Esquire's Movie Popularity Contest. Elise did not know that Scotchy, a plumber, had been fixing a leak in the shower. PAULINE OLESON has opened up a taxi service between High Street and Howe High. The boys whistled so much at the girls that had to walk to school each day that Pauline thought she would pick up a few people and a little money both at the same time. HELEN SIPPRELL has just opened up a We Do Your Dirty Work Bureau. She invents excuses for late, absent, or night-owlish high school pupils. TAD PLUMLEY started as Helen's associate but was fired for the illegal use of company information. GEORGE OUELLETTE, that great Shakespearean actor, choked in Ham'et's soliloquy last Thursday. We always said that George pronounced his k's too vigorously. RUTH ROGERS has finished her latest book. How To Cuss a Teacher With Ladylike Grace. CLIFFORD SAUNDERS was re-elected to the Senate on the platform, Send your children to school on Saturdays, so they can learn what you missed in high school and come home and tell it to you. PAUL SABRE is piloting the BBAL. iBillerica-Boston Air Linesl BETTY ST. JOHN is his hostess. Betty says that a good philosophy of life can be learned from the BBAL: They both have their ups and downs. JANICE SALTMAN now runs the Saltman Summer School. This school is designed for pupils who wish to graduate in three years. MARY TUTTLE makes her debut in Symphony Hall next week. The old gang back in Billerica have named her the Hstrategical stratiyarianf' -25-
