,Jf e g f I6 Eg? ? FRED DANIEL BRIGGS, JR. Seven Mile Rd., Hope General And here is a typical example of the two S's -school spirit! Why? Because Fred has supported the Athletic Association for four years. He plans to go to Rhode Island State College, and we are sure that he will make good, as he never shirks when there is work to be done. A. A. C17 C25 C33 C4D. MARJORIE PALMER BRIGGS Seven Mile Rd., Hope General Marjorie is that tall, silent girl whom we see so often in our corridors and wonder about. Yes, she is studious, but she is also peppy and amusing. You who think her too reserved, just ask those who are her intimate friends, and they will assure you of her versatility as a fun-maker. Marge will go from Cranston to the Rhode Island College of Education where she plans to train to become a librarian. We suggest that you return to your old Alma Mater to serve it in that capacity some day, Marjorie. A. A. q2p,L1fb. c. C35 q4p,Gzee C. 429. ARTHUR HOWARD BROWN 131 Waterman Ave., Eden Park Scientific Anyone familiar with Blackamore pond has seen Brownie skimming over the heretofore placid water in his outboard This craft, to which he has devoted much of his spare time is a proof of his mechanical turn of mind. Although his future plans are undecided, we are sure Brownie, with his interest in nautical mechanics, may be the guiding genius in winning the cup in future international races. Soccer CSD. CARLETON PULLEN BROWN 931 Park Ave., Auburn Sgignnfig Carleton has not only shouldered his own pack so well that he received the coveted Rhode Island Honor Society pin, but he has been willing to help others in their work. As further evidence of this spirit of co-operation that made him so well liked by all his classmates, he was an efficient member of the Cranstonian Board. Brownie intends to go to Cornell where he will study to prepare himself to enter his father's business, in which we are sure that he will win unqualified success. A. A. C15 C23 C355 H. R. Pres.

That is exactly the word which describes Hjohnnyf' He is courteous from top to toe, as all his classmates know. He has served his school and class very creditably by taking the part of the Count in the senior play. We are losing a good pal and Bryant-Stratton Business College is gaining a splendid student when Johnny leaves Cranston High. Senior Play C45. X BARBARA HELEN BREARD 84 Waite Ave., Edgewood General In mentioning Bobbie's name, many ideas come to us. She has talent as both artist and architect. Among her favorite activities are skating, skiing, dancing, and tennis, although she particularly shines in swimming and diving. Her sunny disposition and lovable personality have won her a host of friends. Tr. 4-HClnb C155 A. A. Del. C255 A. A. C15 C25 C355 Swimming C. C35: Thyr. C. C15 C25. NELSON FRANCIS BREARD 75 Third Ave., So. Elmwood Manzlal Arts Nelson has been an enthusiastic member of the T-Square Club for three years and has served as its treasurer for two years. We wonder if his an- cestors hailed from Scotland, for money matters claim his attention as he has been thrift cashier for three years. He has intimated that he intends to become an architect, and some day the T-Square Club may invite him back to one of its meetings as guest speaker. A. A. C15 C25 C35 C455 Thrzft Cash.

During four years here, Walt has been one of the most prominent track men in school, participating in cross country, indoor and outdoor track work. The cross country team elected him captain during his senior year and the Athletic Association has claimed him both as a member and a delegate. His ambition is to become a physical instructor and having such an auspicious start, we feel sure that he will finish well in front. Cross Country C15 C35 C455 Capt.

FRANK RHODES BUDLONG, JR. 83 Albert Ave., Edgewood Scientific There are many nice things we can associate with 'fRhody, but the one which we notice most is his originality. For was he not Voted the most origi- nal member ofthe February class? He has served on many social committees and added charm to the functions of the school. Rhode Island State will receive him in the fall, and we all know a secret meaning to the State cheer, Yeh! Rah! Rah! Rhody! Thyf. C. C15 C25 C35 C453 A. A. C15 C25 C35 C453 Baud C35Q Class C.

MAZELLE FRANCES BURRELL 205 Armington St., Edgewood General Mazelle has a sweet happy-go-lucky disposition and we have always found her a willing helper. As one of the old maid twin sisters in the senior play she caused great amusement. Her interpretation of the part showed decided dramatic ability. She makes friends easily, and has a host of them. No doubt this will be an asset to her in her future work as a private secre- tary. She intends to prepare for this work by attending the Edgewood Secretarial School when she leaves Cranston High. A.

Are you not going to betake yourself to higher institutions of learning and give them the same satisfactory friend ship that you have given us in your high school days? You have 1nsp1red a real liking amongst your classmates at Cranston and may you do the same throughout the rest of your life. Anyway, do not forget the many friends you have made here among your classmates of 32
