RALPH ANDREWS Andv” is the Tom Thumb of the class, but despite his wee size, he is quite an athlete and a very good cook. What a husband he ' ll make, a good cook and small enough to handle — don ' t rush girls ! Basketball 1, 2, 3, 4; Baseball 4, Gym Team 1. GEORGE APPLET ■ ' Heifer is president of the B. H. S. Woman Hater ' s Union. This wild and woolly Easterner still claims they don ' t have Indian skir- mishes in East Braintree any more. However, he always is good-na- tured and willing to help. Basketball 4, Big Hearted Her- bert 3, Poultry Club 2. ALTHEA ARMSTRONG Always a smile, never a frown. A pleasing personality and a hard worker. She has our best wishes in whatever she undertakes in the future, and we are well assured that she will succeed. Basketball 4. HELEN ARNOLD Manager of the girls ' hockey team. We might add that she is a little bit bashful, but Helen is an extremely likable person and al- wavs in good humor. She is a great companion and friend. You have our best wishes for the future! Basketball 2, 3, Hockey Manager 4; Orchestra 1, Band 3; Show Boat 4; Pirate ' s Daughter 3; Senior Show Committee 4. PRISCILLA ARNOLD Cilia was the captain of our hockey squad, and a very efficient one, as her fellow members will agree. Although she seems to be rather boyish, she is very bashful in — but why should we give that particular class publicity? Anyway she ' s bashful. Hockey 2, 3, 4; Captain 4; Gym Team 1, 2, 3, 4, Basketball 1, 2, 3, 4; Show Boat 4; Mikado 2; Base- ball 3. GEORGE BEAN George is another one of our more retiring classmates. But if Mr. Jones has anything to say about it, George will eventually ov ' ercome his bashfulness. Anyway, he is al- ways agreeable, and can take a joke. WILLIAM BECK Bill has been an ardent sup- porter of track activities during his four years in high school and has developed into a fine runner. Also we understand Bill to be Mr. Jones ' right hand history authority. Which is it Bill, the Olympics or B. U.?

GASTE BENDINELLI Gaste is one of those quiet steady pluggers. He says little but always has his homework done. Gaste firmly believes in the motto Si- lence is Golden and has aspirations to be a lawyer. Good luck, Gaste. 17

CARL BENSON Carl is short, has blonde hair and blue eyes. He is a happy-go-lucky fellow full of smiles, laughter and fun. Who could ask for anything more? Success certainly will be his with such a combination. Good luck Carl. Football 1, 4, Basketball 1, 2; Cross Country 3; Big Hearted Herbert” 3. FRED BERGMAN Fred is one of the smaller mem- bers of our class, bur this has no depressing effect on his personality. Fred is rather quiet in school, but you never can tell about these silent people. All in all, he’s an asset to ’36. Basketball 1, 2, 3, 4; Gym Team 1, 4; Baseball 2, 3. SUZANNE BLODGETT Sue is a good dresser, popular, and one couldn’t help noticing her golden curls.

ISABEL BODELL Another merry member for . our class register who has two of the merriest blue eyes, and is guilty of continuous merriment.

Her favorite sports are horseback riding and driving to school every morning (about one minute before the bell) which must be the reason for her trim ’’figure.” Her smile and laugh are contagious.
