GEORGE OLIVER Organizations: Operetta 12; A. A. 10, 12; Gym Team 10, 11, 12; Junior Play 11. “Smile and the world smiles with you,” is “Georg-ie’s” motto. There is never a dull moment when he is present because there is no such word as shyness in his vocabulary. If Georgie will show as much interest in his life’s profession as has in gymnastics, we are certain he will be a success. JOSEPH MICHAEL PAGANO Organizations: Italian Club 10; Baseball 11; Class Treasurer 12; A. A. 10, 11, 12. Who is the Edison of the Chemistry Class? You guessed it, “Chief” is the answer. Joe, who may often be found helping some fellow with his work, has never failed to make the first honor roll, and has been able to participate in athletics, and to take an active part in all school activities. With his initiative and preseverance he is sure to go a long way. MARY CLARISSA PAIVA Organizations: French Club 10, 11; Class Treasurer 11; Glee Club 11; Room Banker 12; Senior Rostrum. Wherever there is laughter there also is “Merry.” She just can’t help it. She is one of those persons who is possessed of an unlimited source of good fun and friendship. Her sharp wit has many a time put her classmates in gales of irrepressible laughter which the teachers, more often than not, enjoy also. Her ambition is to be a nurse and we know that she could brighten any sick room. ELVIRA AMELIA PANSA Organizations: A. A. 10, 12; Glee Club 11; Red Cross 10, Gym Meet 11; Operetta 12; Commercial Club 12 (President); Banking 12. Here comes noise, plus! Ellie’s voice can be heard above all others. This, however, has no bad influence in her studies as she is a good student. She and Lee can be found almost anywhere there’s laughter. Her future, as yet, is undecided, but may it be a successful one.

MARY ANNE MIRANDA Organizations: A. A. 10, 12; Commercial Club; Glee Club 11. The wizard of the Shorthand class describes Mary. Mary’s neat appearance has won the admiration of her classmates. She is a good worker and hopes to be a private secretary. Good luck, Mary! HENRY BAILEY NEWMAN JR. Organizations: Basketball manager 10, 11, 12; Band 12; Gym team 10; Operetta. Henry has many excellent qualities, but being true to the opposite sex isn’t one of them. We have often wondered why Henry turns red at the sound of girl’s voices. Always ready with a quick answer, Henry has gotten himself out of many a tight spot. Keep pitching, Henry. JOSEPH R. NUNES Organizations: A. A. 10, 11, 12; Italian Club 10, 11, Athletic council (Treasurer), 11, 12; Executive Committee 12; Green and White Staff 12; Operetta 12. Here is one of the most popular boys in the Senior Class. “Joe,” who is better known to his friends as “Muscles,” is known and liked by all. His artistic ability has won for him the position of Art Editor on the Green and White Staff. Muscles,” who is full of vim and vitality, sends the class into roars of laughter with his hilarious actions. He is also the type of fellow who will lend a helping hand to anyone. Possessing these fine characteristics we know Joe will be a great success. MARY MARGARET NUNES Organizations: French Club 10, 11, 12; Halloween Committee 11; Bank Cashier 11; Operetta; A. A. 10, 12; Executive Committee 12. Stylish, humorous and easy-going! That’s Mary to a “T.” Mary always made school life around her very pleasant. Her intentions after graduation is to pursue a career in nursing. Good luck and Godspeed, Mary.

RITA PERRY Organizations: Band-Orchestra 10, 11, 12; Glee Club 11. Though often times quiet, let it not be said that Rita is a serious girl, because she is usually right there whenever anything happens. Perhaps you have noticed her perpetual bandbox look. This is because Rita designs and makes all her own clothes. Keep up the good work, Rita, and we know you will be a success. JACQUELYN DREYER PETTINE Organizations: A. A. 10, 11, 12; French Club 10, 11, 12; Glee Club 11; Gym Meet 10; Victory Corps 10; Jr. Red Cross 10; Senior Rostrum; Operetta 12; Junior Representative at Graduation; Amateur Show 11. Jackie is one of the best dressed girls in the senior class. Petite and charming, with long dark hair, she can frequently be seen engrossed in a never ending lull of conversation with Wini—and inevitably the name Paul can be overheard. How about it Jackie? Jackie is one of three girls in our class who have applied for entrance to Pembroke. Keep studying. MARY C. QUINN Organizations: A. A. 10; Commercial Club 12; Operetta 12; Gym Meet 11; Glee Club 11. Have you ever heard Babe at the piano? You sure are missing something. You can always find Babe driving around in her truck (and I do mean truck). Her ambition is to be a secretary. Here’s to you, Babe! CAROLINE ANN QUINTAL Organizations: French Club 10, 11, 12; Red Cross; Banking cashier 11. Carrie is another of our shy girls, but if one sees her at the right time, at the right place, with the right people, then it is a different story because she will audit a great volume of noise in proportion to her small stature. If one hears a soft, sweet voice rattling off French at a swift pace, Carrie is certain to be translating.
