ELIZABETH McKEAN What would Miss Walker do without Elizabeth? She is always seen hustling through the corridors. Her laugh is contagious. Her pleas- ant disposition and pleasing person- ality have made her many friends. Mav you have success in your future work ! Year Book 4. WILLIAM McKEAN Nonchalance, good looks and popularity make up Bill’s attractive personality. That roguish smile and his sleek hair are what we admire. A calm and collected football player as well as a live-wire. Remember his injured nose during football season? Basketball 3, 4; Football 4; Re- ception 4. CONSTANCE McKIM Connie, although she only came to us last year, has become very popular among us, especially with the opposite sex of the school. She is a petite, dark-haired young lady who knows how to dress. Connie is quite an ardent equestrienne. Show Boat 4, Banquet 4. MARY McMANUS Mary has a calm, serene disposi- tion, and an ever ready smile. Those going to Bridgewater can look for- ward to seeing Mary there also. Let us in on the secret, Mary, about your almost constant companion. Should we worry? Show Boat 4; Gift Committee 4. MARY McSHARRY Mary is a happy-go-lucky sort of person, who can always find something to laugh at. It seems that Marv just likes to take things easy, and dislikes hurrying. Never- theless, we admire that sort of un- disturbed manner, and a sense of humor is a good thing to have. Show Boat 4; Banquet 4. ROBERT MEANEY We have a number of cross-coun- try stars, and Bob is certainly one of them. His wit (?) causes many a teacher a gray hair. Little is known of Bob’s future, but we are sure that an aggressive fellow like he is will be a success. Cross Country 4; Tennis 4; Basket- ball 1, 2; Wampatuck 1. DOROTHY MILES ’Dottie ” is one of our sweetest Senior girls. Carefree and ready for fun, she glides through school treating us generously w’ith her adorable smile. Dot goes around in circles trying to keep from giving more than one fellow a date on the same night. Mikado 2; Basketball 2, 4; Show Boat 4. CLYDE MORRISON When you see a cloud of dust way down the road, you know that Clyde has just passed you on his wav home from school. Another of our class’s smaller boys, he certainly proved that size was not such an important factor on the gridiron, or elsewhere. Football 1, 3, 4; Baseball 3, 4; Basketball 1, 2, 3, 4; Sophomore Dance 2; Reecption 4. 28

DEBORAH MARSTON What will we do without Deb- bie and her neckties — that Deb- bie” has a special weakness for gav cravats is a well-known fact. It is true that most people have serious moments but so far, Debbie has managed to keep her ' s concealed. Happy days ahead, Debbie. Gym Team 1, Hockey 2; Band 2; Basketball 1, 2, 3, 4, Reception 4. AUSTIN MARTIN Autie may not be a Johnnie Weissmuller, but he has what it takes to make anyone an A number one basketball player. He ' s an ace on roller skates and maybe he can ' t go ' round and ' round once he gets started. Basketball 1, 2, 3, 4. JUNE MATTHEWS June has proven herself superior as an actress, as well as a faithful student. She possesses that fine qual- ity that would gain her admittance wherever she goes. We could com- pare her with that month of sun- shine of the same name. Wampatuck 4, Wampatuck Play 4; Junior Prom 3; Year Book 4; Show Boat 4. IRENE M. TTIE Irene is exactly opposite from her big brother, being rather quiet and bashful, or so we judge from our class room acquaintance with her. We understand she intends to go to Bridgewater next year, and we know she ' ll make a grand teacher. Year Book 4, Show Boat 4; Class Day Committee 4. WALTER MATTIE Big, bluff, and genial is Walter. His contagious smile and fine sense of humor have made him famous among us. A flashy dresser and a great ladies ' man make him sought after. Someday perhaps Walter will have a monopoly in the milk bus- iness. How about it, Walter? Cross Country 1, 2; Orchestra 1; Dramatic Club Treasurer 4, Pi- rate ' s Daughter 3; Basketball 4; Football 4; Dulcy 4, Class Day Committee 4. MILDRED MAXHAM Millie is of the conservative type of student. She is quiet, but very good natured. . mong her group of friends she is well-liked. Whenever you ' re looking for Millie, look for Carl B. and there you will find her. Graduation Committee 4; Show Boat 4. RICHARD McDonough He ' ll get by with a twinkle in his eye. Dick is one of our most carefree classmates who never seems to have a care in the world. He and his pal, Martin, are usually in ca- hoots about some thing or other. Don ' t become too studious in the future will you, Dick. Basketball 1, 2, 3, 4. LEONA McDORMAND Leona has never been known to let anything bother her very much, and nothing seems to hurry her. She is one of the smartly dressed girls of the class. We wonder what you do without your pals, Phyl and Connie. Anyway, we know you ' d get along. Year Book 4; Football Dance 4; Basketball 3. 27

PHILIP MUNROE “Deeds, not words seems to be Phil ' s motto, and he abides by it. As a football player and track man, he has become famous among us. Although one of the quiet members, Phil is a big asset to the Class of ' 36. Football 1, 2, 3, 4, Track 1, 2, 3, 4, Gvm Team 1, 3; Basketball 1, 2, 3,4. ' ALICE NEAL Alice is another member of East Braintree society. She enjoys skat- ing, as many from “over there do. ■VV ' e ' ve heard that Alice has a nice singing voice, so perhaps we have a future operatic or radio star in the person of Alice? Gym Team 1; Show Boat 4. JAMES NICKERSON James finds it one of the most difficult things to do when getting to homeroom a few minutes early is concerned. Sometimes he does and sometimes he doesn ' t! If you see someone walking along slowly and unconcerned, that ' sjames. Mikado 2; Football 2, 3, 5; Track 4, 5; Band 2. BARBARA NISSEN Barbie finds her greatest op- portunity for relieving her excess energv in the field of athletics. She has a perfectly grand disposition, and boy! we appreciate her interest and help in all our undertakings. Orchestra 1, 2; Band 2; Field Hockey 2, 4; Gym Team 1, 2, 4; Basketball 1, 2, 4. PAUL NOONAN Nooney features curly hair along with a quiet, unassuming manner and a slow, nonchalant walk. He ' s an all-round athlete and plavs a spectacular game of hockey. His favorite hide-out is none other than Hollis Garage. Prospective mechanic? Rifle Club 1, 2, 3, 4. FRANKLIN ODELL Red is that big fellow who lives just across the street, and is ever seen getting into homeroom jut before the bell rings. Red forms the third of the Jones-Mun- roe-Odell trio, which is almost always kept intact. Basketball 1, 2, 3, 4; Track 1; Gym Team 1; Football 1. HERBERT OLOFSON That quiet, good-looking, very very blond fellow is Herbert. He is best known among his own sex, as he is very apparently girl shy. Nev- ertheless all the girls who know him, as well as the boys, can ' t help liking Herbert — perhaps it ' s that attractive blush! HELEN OLSON Who is she? We mean that tall messenger who frequently visits our class rooms with notices. Oh, yes, that ' s Helen — who, incidentally, prefers knitting to books. With her jolly disposition she will surely be successful — as someone ' s secretary. Show Boat 4, Basketball 3, Class Gift 4. 29
