Like, bu! olz how dili'erent! WVhere, oh where, would Class A basketball team be with- out Margaret? She certainly could shoot those baskets. Do you remember the day one twin answered for the other fthe time they got caught doing it?j Mr. Arnold knew them apart that day. We always think of Margaret as the girl with a perpetual smile and an extremely pleasing personality: and know that she will make a very good teacher, and one whom all her pupils will like.

A 'vz't'aci0us, petite and lovable mile, A being, 'Lis said, rarely inclined lo figlztg Sl1e's practical, resourceful, energetic, sincere, Quite droll, by llie way, bill noi perfecl, don! fear! lfVhat would Class A be without Dot? XVoodward would be rather humdrum. A corking sport is sheg a bridge player, athletically inclined, a wonderful dancer, if the number of partners she has is any sign, and a social success as one can plainly see from the number of dates which make up her life. Yet under all this gaiety there is an eagerness to succeed in all she does. lfVell, Dot, may life always seem as pleasant to you as it does now, and may you always be happy as well as successful. The world is a better place to live in, knowing you, Dot. JAMES FISHER BECKVVITH 16 Pearl St., South Braintree. N. A. A. '26-'29g Men's Club '28-'29g Varsity Soccer '27-'28g Capt. Second Team Basketball '27-'28, Men's Club Play '29, Manager Baseball '29, NORMAL OFFERING Staff '29, Jimmie, our popular young scientist, will eventually come forward with a Beckwithian theory based upon the subject of food values. As a freshman Jimmie's greatest achievement was out -eating everyone in the dining hall. Rumor has it that Jimmie repeatedly mutters in his sleep something about the best cook at Normal. lVe wonder why? Although handicapped, Jimmie made the soccer team and helped Normal win its games. If we could combine a school with a delicatessen, we would not hesitate to predict a brilliant future for our beloved J. Fisher. - I I-.., ...,i 29 I

She's all my fancy painted herg She's Zovelyg she's divine. Tot is a person to whom we may apply the saying, Looks are deceiving, because back of Tot's quiet, dreamy expres- sion there is a sunny disposition always full of fun, and with never a care in the world. Gates House regrets losing Tot at the end of her third year, but it was a lucky break for Woodward when she decided to reside there. We don't need to wish Tot success, because her manner assures that even now. ALICE MARGARET TAYLOR 169 High St., Whitman. Class Representative '25-'27g VV. A. A.

Vfith all of her duties she could always find time to help someone out or to cheer someone up. When any proiect was in the making she was more than ready to do her share, and to do it well. We certainly were proud when Alice represented the school at conferences in New York on two occasions. The class knows that she will be a success in any line which she chooses to take up.

Which is it, Helen or Margaret? CMany times heard around Bridgewaterj. Those of us who have not learned to tell them apart in our four years at school have to look at the name beside the picture. We all like Helen with her happy- go-lucky disposition. She did much for her class teams to win in hockey and soccer. Helen also did her share in dancing atboth the class and day student socials. ...5 28 t...

l929 NORMAL OFFERING CHARLES FRANKLIN BELCHER 17 Orange St., Abington. Glee Club '26-'29 fVice Presi- dent '29Dg Varsity Soccer '26-'29 fCaptainjg Basketball '28-'29, N. A. A. '26-'29 fPresident '29jg T. S. '27-'28, Men's Club '28-'29. I dare do all that may become a mzmg IfVlz0 dares do more is none. Charley is our leading scholastic ace as well as headliner in B. N. S. sports and other extra-curricular activities, in- cluding bridge. His powerful boot has deflected many a ball from the normal net, his outstretched hands have knocked down many an opposing pass, and incidentally the Glee Club conductor. His bulk has served as ballast at many an es- capade at Mother Mill's dormitory. Although Charley hails from Abington one would never suspect the fact, for he is a booster of all social functions at our dear Alma Mater. In spare moments he may be seen helping the girls keep health rules and earn XV. A. A. points, and last but not least casting an anticipating eye toward Chicopee. Charley, we hope you get there. GEORGE VVILLIAM CHAPLIN Suite No. 2, Normal Hall, Bridgewater. Men's Club '25: Soccer '25-'28: Baseball '25-'27g N. A. A. '25-'29 CTreasurer '27-'ZSD Experience is by ifzalustry achieved, And perfected by the swzlft course of time. This embryonic pedagogue has long urged that the campus pond be drained and made to serve as foundation for a 'Wheat- on College dormitory. Occasionally, some professor finds him awake in classg and on such instances he can be depended upon to add something worthwhile to even a Class A recita- tion. Chap is noted for trying, even in Miss Mof:fit's class where Normal men give up. As an athlete he shines in base- ball and soccer-his colorful uniforms have long been a hazard to his opponents. During his last two years he has been treasurer of N. A. A. A good time and Chap go hand in hand, even in the reception room. George, when you open the check-book of life, don't forget to carry the balance for- ward! LEO JOSEPH CHARETH 180 lbfinter St., Wfhitman.

The Oliver Sudden of Class A! In addition to the fact that Leo has been our guide-right man in gym class for four years, we turn our eyes to him for other reasons. He is a fast man, both on the turf and accelerator. Leo was one of the sponsors of the Men's Club, of which he has been president for the last year. He could always be depended upon to re- present the men in Campus Comment. As a bass he is out- standing among the warblers of the school. We shall never forget his famous appearance in f'The Old Gray Robe. Leo has excelled in the field of dramatics as a bellhop and as a sponging uncle. Bridge is also included among his accom- plishments. Leo, we hope you will always hold good hands. T. ...4 30 T...
