T T Ti T H'i5'?k?n U C E U s HARRY GOLDSTEIN Brown Harry is a quiet classmate who never has been known to say I'm unprepared. He often surprises us with his great range of knowledge, particularly in current events. Being a conscien- tious student he naturally has always received good marks, espe- cially in history, in which he has often come to the aid of the class when the rest of us knew nothing about the question. If he keeps up his standard of good work, we may some day see him among the honor-members at college.

One can always count on her being present at the student dances, but one can never count on getting a dance with her. Just as you start to ask her for one, a small Sheik appears from somewhere, and then you might as well try to pull fly-paper off your Hngers as to get our little' Sheba from him.

THE CADUCEUS ALBERT GEBELIN Football HD: Photograph Committee C451 Swimming C43 Annapolis Little Rock came to Classical last September from way out West in Arkansas, where men are men, and women are different. He has made a place for himself by his clever head- work in the class-room and on the football field. He has that gift and virtue of saying little, with the complementary gift of' speaking directly and forcefully when necessary. ln football he gave a convincing exhibition of the best western style. In the classroom he proved absolutely that athletics and studies can be mixed successfully. Little Rock is, all in all, a regular lar Gibraltar. strong and dependable. ANTHONY GELARDI Football I3-45 3 Photograph Committee Q45 Rhode Island State College XVhen the coach puts a light man into the football line, he must have real ability. The opposition invariably hammers him as a weak spot. Yet Ci held his place on Classical's team for two years. ln spite of his slight weight, he made his posi- tion a strong one by reason of his speed and punch. His quiet good-humor and neat personal appearance have made him popular among the fellows and girls alike at Classical. Because of his good work in math and his liking for scientific work, G is going to move into the classes at Kingston next Fall to take up engineering. WILLIAM GERSTENBLATT Brown Classical was certainly fortunate when this young man de- cided to study here upon his graduation from Sackett Street School. Billy is rarely seen without some companions, deep in a discussion of some learned subject. His scholastic ability is very high, and it doesn't take very much effort on his part to get good marks. He plans to continue his studies at Brown, where his successful work will doubtless be kept up. OSCAR GOLDMAN Track Ll, 25: Debating Society fl, 23 Brown This is the lad who puts humor into all our classes. lf silence is golden, Oscar must be full of lead. Seldom does a day pass that Ossie does not utter some witticism that makes even the teachers laugh. But do not think he spends all his time fooling. Ask Miss Day, for she has often credited him with a ine, co-operative spirit. He surely deserves credit for finish- ing his four years with a good record, as he spends a large amount of his time after school in working. Such ambition as his deserves the greatest reward.

THOMAS SISSON HARRIS Brown T H E C ACD U C E U s TT STTTTT DOROTHY ALFARETTA HANSON Basketball C451 Volley Ball HJ: Tennis Cl, Z, 33: Gift Committee Q43 : Glee Club CZ, 3, 49 Pembroke Dorothy, the epitome of all things good, has great ability as a poetess. Unlike, however, the popular conception of poets. she is lively and full of pep. Hidden within some recesses of her mind is a great stock of jokes and humerous anecdotes, which are brought forth and quoted at the most opportune moments. She is one of the most gifted girls of the class, and her work in the literary line has been a source of delight to her English teacher. May the talent that so aptly imitated Milton grow in inward ripenessf' Be a friend. You don't need money: Just a disposition sunny. Such is Tom's motto, and he surely lives up to it at all times. His constant and inseparable classmate and friend is al- ways Stewart, whether in or out of school, Besides being such a good friend, Tom is an excellent student of the kind that always strives to do good work. His ability for trying hard has had good results, especially in his theme-writing. He has not yet decided upon his future, but we can be sure that his decision will be well-made when he enters Brown next fall. EDITH HASSENFELD Much credit is due Edith for her accomplishment of com- pleting a high school education seven years after she came to America from Russia. Although she is one of the quieter mem- bers of our class she has a great many friends to attest to her good-nature. There is a peaceful undercurrent of sympathy, flowing beneath a quiet exterior, which many have learned to appreciate. Edith's acquaintances will remember in years to come how she added that comforting touch to the lives of her friends, MARION I OUISE HATHAWAY Class Play 147 : Senior Play Wheaton There are three Marions. One is the quiet student who has carried away modestly the coveted Summa Cum Laude. Another Marion is the sweet, generous girl who willingly helps every one who is not imbued with the inclination to study, as she is. The third Marion is one whom few of her classmates know. When studies are forgotten, she is full of life, peppy, ready for anything and everything, and above all, a corking good sport. She will always be a favorite wherever she goes, and our wishes for the best of luck will go with her.
