LEONARD PAIN l Brown PTHE CADUCEUS JANET LUCILLE PAIN Tennis C451 Swimming C41 Pembroke Any one that doesn't know Janet surely is missing some- thing. She looks quiet, but oh, my-she certainly can make things hum when she gets started. She is a specimen of a girl who is ambitious and an all-'round pal. In addition to her joyous disposition Janet is a good student and all who know her regard her as one good sport. She stands firmly in- trenched in the hearts of her friends. With the best of wishes we make this toast, To Your Future. Ladies and gentlemen, let me present Dr. Pain. He is not a doctor of science, medicine, or law. but of that alluring trait called bashfulness. Usually we do not consider bashfulness alluring, but in this it certainly is. When he walks down the corridor the girls wonder what thoughts hide behind that mod- est exterior. Another outstanding characteristic of Leonards is his good manners. Consequently even if in nothing else Cwhich is not truej he is certainly certiied in the art of being a gentleman. Leonard has a first cousin in this class. Brown would fain receive them both through the Van Wickle gates. HUGO ERMEDE EAMIGLIETTI University of Southern California Since traveling seems to be Eami's specialty, we might call him our peregrinator QAttention Mr. Peck's brilliant Latin deriversfj Good nature too-he has plenty of it. Teachers can testify as to his artistic taste in the selection of Christmas and Easter cards. Had Pami only harnessed up his liveliness of spirit to some athletic activity, he might now be sporting the royal C. We hear, by the way, that sunny California is magnitizing our classmate to her portals of learning. GRACE ELEANOR PARNUM Pembroke Shall we call her blonde or brunette? Here's a good chance for argument because this young lady has a fair skin, brown eyes, and medium brown hair. She has a pleasant smile and is as loquacious as Calvin Coolidge in class, although she can talk fluently enough when with her chums. lt has been noticed in Room 4 that Eleanor sometimes comes dashing in just before the 8:30 bell. We all know the reason for this breezy entrance, for Eleanor lives in the country fonly one street over the city- line.l You will not be alone in the next four years, Eleanor, since you have decided to complete your studies at Pembroke.

THE CADUCEUS FRANCIS JAMES DROMGOOLE Football I2-3-43: Baseball C3-43: Hockey L-UZ Basketball fl-Z-3-4,3 Holy Cross Drommy and his ever-present smile are well known to every Classical student as well as to the athletic teams represent- ing the various high schools of the city. He manipulates a football. basketball, or baseball with equal proficiency. t'And heres a secret: he claims to be the original Hwoman-hater, but we venture to say that some day he'll be repeating. I do. iJ Not satisfied with Classical's limited curriculum, he visits both Technical and Commercial daily in further quest of knowledge. Next year will End Drommy, together with his pal Chug, still wearing the royal purple-this time at Holy Cross. Brown day a handsome recompense. RUTH VIRGINIA EMMONS R. I. C. E. NVriting a personal for Ginnie seems almost unnecessary. Just a glance at the accompanying photograph proves what a delightful young person she is. We have never known Ginnie to be angry. Not even discouraging poetry of Virgil can ruffle her quiet. sunny countenance. The fact that she's not so con- spicuous in school activities as some of her classmates does not seem in the least to hamper her at making friends. She is a pal, and a real, true Classicalite, for she comes all the way from Cranston to be with us. Brown MICHAEL EDWARDS Indoor Track 41,2, 'SJ Irack 43 4 A tough old line of Vergil or a seemingly untranslatable passage of Homer and a discouraged Senior characterizes gloom' Enter Edwards and watch the atmosphere automatically brighten, for many has been the time that he has extracted us from the hopeless depths of Latin and Greek translations Besides being the Will Rogers of our class he has a marked literary propensity for Classical mythology having also read all the western stories ever written. May the ability which hc has displayed in writing pseudo-scientific themes bring to him some RUSSEI- MONROE EVERSON XVhenever Miss Sheppard needs a pad pcn or pencil she makes directly for Russel's desk, where she knows she will find a plentiful supply. Rus's economy enables him to amass a large stock of such oddities while the rest of us are clamoring for more. But our care-free eater of pret7els came to grief one day when he attempted to vault the janitor s waste basket Although such physical feats are not his forte he makes up for this in mental ability. We hope his professors will agree with us on this point at Brown and the School of Design which are to share the pleasure of his presence for the next four ycars

I T ?U c ia U si I ANTHONY FIGLIOLINI Baseball C33 Brown Fig has an enviable disposition which has caused him to be well liked by all of his daily associates. During a study period if he isn't zealously scanning his text-books with a seemingly genuine seriousness, he is highly enjoying the innumerable episodes of humor which are always prevalent in his section of the room. Fig is very diligent in the preparation of his studies: although no mean athlete he has given up practically all sport activities for scholastic duties. He has chosen Brown as his Alma- Mater-to-be. ELIZABETH MARGARET FLANAGAN Pembroke Has anybody done the geometry? I haven't done a thing. Liz can be heard explaining in the locker-room on Monday morning-merely camouflage, as her recitations give evidence to the contrary. The fact that she attends all the class festivities shows that she is socially inclined. Perhaps she will follow in the footsteps of the Classical faculty and become a teacher her- self. If so, we predict many bouquets of posies standing on her desk. EVANGELINE GL ADYS FRANCIS Caduceus Board: Volley Ball fl-2-3-47: Tennis C2-3-431 Basket-ball fl-2-3-43: Hockey I3-43: Swimming C2-3g Rhode Island School of Design Evangeline calls to our minds a vision of Longfellow's meek Evangeline. Imagine that Arcadian maiden playing tennis. drawing, doing trig, etc. It simply won't be imagined, so we call our Evangeline Jackie She is a fine girl to have for a friend: one who doesn't throw up her hands in dismay at the idea of doing some one else's lessons in an emergency. We all wish you heaps of success in your art work, Jackie, and some day when you have an exhibition in the Metropolitan, the rest of us will say, Oh, yes, Evangeline Francis! Why I went to iigh-school with her. CATHERINE KELLY FREEL Basketball fl-2-3-49: Swimming C273 Gift Committee Q41 R. I. C. E. i'Les apparences sont trompeusesfn That's what you'd say if you knew Kitty as well as we do, She appears to be quiet, but manages to make her wants know without staying after school in the numerous meditation classes held in room 4. If you should go to the girls' basketball games, you'd see Kitty with her friend Bing doing their best to bring victory to our Classical. You might think that she is interested only in athlet- ics, but she's always ready to help you with your Vergil and to tell you what movie is the best. After graduation Kitty expects to enter R. I, C. E., where we wish her all success.
