P090 Tlvflffll-,f0Hr DEDHAM HIGH SCHOOL EDWIN VINCENT MILTON HTIZVIY' is no lcizowledge fha! is not power. Were you sleeping, Ed- win, when you said your des- tination was China and the Philippines? It sounds like the marines to us and they say the world through a port-hole isn't half bad. It's professional football you want? More power to you! ELEANOR A. MONAHAN . . . and n well disposed 11af1H'e. Ellie can punch a type- writer and add up figures like nobody's business. To the variety of her accom- plishments we add her am- bition to be a nurse. Ellie is seen a good deal near the Dedham Communityl Thea- tre. She won't tell us who lxer favorite actor is, but we suspect it's Jimmy Cagney, because both say, Oh yeah,', so much. JAMES DAVID MONAHAN First I'n1 had and then I'nz good, I thus relieve the fefliunz. And if I add my tivo ew- trenzes, I strz'lcc fl happy lH0d1'llHl.,7 Jimmy refuses to disclose any facts about his private life, but through keen obser- vation on our part, we've learned that he is a mischie- vous soul who loves to study and take tests. He's provided us with a laugh in many a class where we might other- wise have dozed off. He's al- so interested in hockey and baseball, and if you want more information you must get the particulars from Jimmy himself. PATRICIA ANN MORRISSEY Life is one long, guy song. It takes a man, not a sample to please Pat. When she gets into the business world she might find one and become his private secretary. Until that happy day, Pat will continue her swimming, dancing, and playing the vio- lin. WILLIAM HAROLD MORSE To do well is good, to do good is better. Whoo! Whoo! Here comes the mad scientist around the bend from points far and near. That's just our Bill, plain Bill, tra-la. If this all sounds slighty in- sane, you should see the answers he put on his ques- tionnaire. It's all right, Bill, and We hope y0u'll always be able to enjoy eating. ROBERT JOHN MUIRHEAD Order is at lovely thing. Bob's destination is un- known, but when he tells us that he wants to be a dicta- tor, our imagination begins to run amuck. That haggard look in his eye was caused by a great deal of worrying -perhaps over his famous chickens that got the castor- oil? Happily two of the things Bob likes best to do can be easily combined-not studying and sleeping. Bob nonchalantly asks, What did the doodle bug say? and takes the answer as his authority! RUTH J. MUNCHBACK Life is one grand sweet dream. Munch's favorite! expres- sion, Brother, can you spare a dime? and her experience in skating and swimming should help her to see the world. Since she likes to read movie magazines, she will fulfill the other half of her ambition, to be happy, when some brother gives her a dime to buy one. BARBARA NAY Consta11cy. What could be better, when a girl's ambition is to go to the college of hard- knocks and her favorite oc- cupation is skating. We sug- gest that after she becomes a good stenographer, she go to Borneo, and take notes for some famous hunter CNot mentioning any namesj. Her ability to cook would proba- bly come in handy here, too. Oh, gee! do we envy Babs!

1937 YEAR BOOK ANNA JOAN MASCIARELLI In her lzearf was hid a sun Would 'warm a world for everyone. I'll say! exclaims Butch, and we'll say that she is go- ing to find her favorite occu- pation, golf, pretty expensive in the South Sea Islands. Think of all the golf balls that will go to the bottom of the deep blue sea. On second thought the native lads would probably succumb to her smile and rescue her balls, so no one need worry. Certainly no business man need fret if he secures Anna as his secretary. FLORENCE J. MCLEISH Home-lreeping hearts are happiest. Florence's favorite expres- sion, Maybe, I don't know, may sound a bit indefinite, but she wants to be a news- paper reporter. While she's waiting for her chance she -f --- plans to work in a business office. Maybe, if she devel- ops her favorite occupation of card playing, she'll be challenging Mr. Bottomley or Mr. Eaton to a game some one of these days. LAWRENCE DONALD MCNAUGHT A man of many words. Hello!' yourself, Lar! H61'C,S another of Dedham High's young hopefuls whose destination is New York. We suggest that they get together and hire one of Chamberlain's buses. But Lar has a particular objec- tive there, he wants to be a member of the N. Y. Busi- ness Men's Association. F4,,uvi'... . L-4 ROBERT MCNAUGHT There is no man suddenly either excellently good or extremely evil. You ought to see, says Seaman, me and Marie down by the sea. We sus- pect him of pursuing his fav- orite occupation, writing let- ters, there in the golden sands f'?J. Some day Sales Manager McNaught hopes to be a good husband. We won- der what Marie has to do with this? Page Tlrenly-three PAULINE PATRICIA MELNICHEK She is a good 1'0Hl1NIHl.0ll- sympafhefn-, uns:-lfisll, cour- ageoasf' Don't bother mel says Pauline, for she's busy read- ing other people's minds, studying hard to be an honor student, and writing the class day play. She's plan- ning to enter the business world as a stenographer. CARL ALAN MERRY f'Yo1fth comes but ouee fin cz lzfetzmef' With his pal, Frank Mil- ler, Al is headed for the Douglas Aeronautical School in Oakland, California, to learn to be a transport pilot. XVhen he's stored up a good- ly sum in this way, he'll come down to earth again, buy his ambition, a LaSalle, and enjoy himself at his fav- orite occupation, driving. FRANK L. MILLER Enough is as good as a feast. Chub thinks people have more fun than anybody and we quite agree. He has am- bitions to do stuff at the Douglas Aeronautical School in Oakland, California, and -yes, you guessed it, every Sunday night at 5:30 you'll find him listening to Col. Stoopnagle and Budd. SYLVIA JEANETTE MILLER 'Tis good to be merry and -wise. Where have I heard that before? says Syl, and we make it plural when we learn that she, like many others of her classmates, has an ambi- tion to travel. We suggest that in her case she hire out to her less fortunate class- mates who don't enjoy sew- ing as much as she does, and earn the means to her dreams. May that good po- sition you're after turn up soon and last long!

1937 YEAR BOOK Page Twwnly-fi1'e MARGARET ELIZABETH NETTLETON They who forgive -most shall lie most forg1'z'ei1. Some day soon Margie will be wearing a crisp white cap and uniform at the Massa- chusetts Memorial Hospital, for she wants to be a nurse. Yes, really, Margie, your actions may be sometimes fast and sometimes slow but you're always good-na- tured. NEVA VIRGINIA NICKERSON Here is a dear, n. true, 'in- dustrious friend. Don't look now-but . . . Neva has so many different nicknames that we couldn't decide on the official one. Anyway, she is going to the Massachusetts School of Art, where she hopes to ful- fill Mr. Corsini's rosy prog- nostications and her own hopes of becoming a com- me1'cial artist. In the mean- time Neva spends her spare time drawing, dancing, and reading articles on politics. WALTER ERIC NILSON Silence is the eternal duty of ?l1tli71.H Walla's1 favorite occupa- tion is hunting, and it might be for any number of things. The most likely guess would be a gold ball, since caddy- ing has been the source of innumerable themes. He and his Riverdale pals ought to join an expedition of some sort to satisfy their mania for hunting. JEAN GARDNER NORTHROP Blest with each talent and each art to please. Jean says, I thought I'd die! but no one came any- where near dying at her per- formance in the senior play. We did feel a bit faint at her announcement that she plans to appear on the New York stage, playing Ophe- lia to John Gielgud's Ham- let. Not that we don't think she could do it! Such a pleasant, unassuming person as Jean deserves the honor of being our most popular girl. VHRIS IJOIIGLAS OGDICN For 1'onrny1' lllllllllfffll with nr1'usion. Chris says, Aw, bolonr-y! but we say that he is going to be speeding right along if he combines his favorite oc- cupation with his ambition: mechanics and race boat driving. He says his desti- nation is to tour the United States, so we suppose his race boat has collapsible wheels! If it can all be done to the st1'ains of soft music, Chris will be happy. JOSEPH MARTIN O'HARA The llfllgllf face of U. blooming boy. Joe will probably go to all those unknown places he told us about, when he be- comes a chauffeur. During his high school career, Ded- hamites have seen him in two kinds of tails-dog tails and dress tails. He has already partly fulfilled his ambition, since he can be seen chauf- feuring about D e dh am streets, and yelling how-ee- yah! FRANCES ONISHUK Stars teach as well as shine. Fran told us that her am- bition is to be a secretary in a business ofiice. But when we asked her what her fav- orite occupation is, she said, For Heaven's sake. So we came to the natural conclu- sion that anyone with such a variety of interests just can't decide which is her favorite one. VVILLIAM BIRD PARSONS Au honest Hlflll, close but- toned to the cliiiz, Bi-oadcloth zvitlzout, 'warm lzcnrt 1uitl12'i1. If there's a little gadget you think ought to be in- vented or if the wheels of something or other don't go around the way they ought to, why don't you tell Wil- liam Bird Parsons? We re- fer you to Bud because his ambition is to be a research engineer. Remember the time you were the lone cheer leader at the rally, William?
