RUTH BENNETT School Street Franklin, Mass. “Bennett” Beauty and grace go hand in hand. Ruth is known as Bennett to her classmates. Her brunette beauty, together with her fresh and natural color, make her, indeed, a charming person to meet. She is very adept as a Cello player. Ruth intends to be a nurse; anyone would just dread leaving the hospital even though he were sick if he had Ruth for a nurse. Hope you always succeed in whatever you undertake, Ruth.

CONSTANCE ANN BERGHELLI 30 Alpine Place Franklin, Mass. “Connie Never trouble trouble till trouble troubles you. Connie is truly the most untroubled miss in the class of ’34, if not in the whole school. We have never known her to lose her serenity under any circumstances. To go with this she has a never-failing sunny disposition. Doc never tired of “teasing Connie but she always came up smiling. Anyone is fortunate who possesses this combination of traits and it will probably be a big factor in Connie’s general happiness throughout life. Glee Club 4. ALICE BLUNSDEN Cottage Street Franklin, Mass. “Alice’ ’ “Short of stature , quick of wit.” Introducing charming Alice in Wonderland! In spite of her shortness, she makes her presence known to everyone. Who could help but notice those sparkling blue eyes, that cute little ribbon in her hair, and that thrilling merry laugh? The Paris dressmakers certainly have a dan¬ gerous rival in Alice if we can judge by those beautiful dresses and coats she made and the prizes she won for them. With that art and her natural cleverness, she will certainly be successful. FRED BOZEK Center Street Bellingham, Mass. “Fred “Silence is golden. One would hardly realize that Fred was a member of our Senior Class, because for four years he remained very quiet, unobtrusive, and un¬ assuming. Now these are three factors which in the long run will count to his credit. On the gridiron he was the same, but was not regarded as such by the players he tackled. To make a long story short we can sum it all up and quote Fred as being a model student. Football 3 4, Baseball 4, Marshal 3 4. 19

ALTHEA ALLEN Mechanics Place Franklin, Mass. “Al” “Alf” Good luck comes to those who bring sunshine wherever they may go.” It is said, “Laugh and the world laughs with you,” and we believe this was Al’s motto while in high school—for in all her four years here, she was noted for her famous laugh. However, this was not her only good quality, for her good sportsmanship rated high as a char¬ acteristic. She played well throughout the basket ball season and helped to bring many a victory to F.H.S. Basket Ball 1-2-3-4, Marshall 4, Junior Prom Committee 3- VERNON ANDERSON Maple Street Franklin, Mass. “Andy” It is the quiet worker who succeeds.” A fine student, a fine athlete, and a fine fellow. Andy came to us from Watertown at the beginning of our Junior year, and it was not long ere he proved himself an outstanding student and athlete, for his name appeared on the honor roll, and he made the first team in basket ball. Although he was a very quiet chap we all liked him very much. I don’t think he had one enemy in F.H.S. We don’t know just what Andy intends to do, but whatever he does, if he applies himself to the task as he has applied himself to his studies, he will surely succeed. Basket Ball 3-4, Editorial Committee 4. THOMAS BARNES 11 Orchard Street Franklin, Mass. “Tommy” Small of stature, quick of wit. He never spoke in class unless he said something important, but out of class his quick wit quite often caused us to hold our sides. Tommy never took part in any outside activities until his senior year, when he surprised us all by holding down a regular job on the football team. He was one of the reasons for the team’s success. Because of his ability to make decisions quickly and correctly when in a tight corner, we are sure Tommy will succeed in all his undertakings. Football 4, Interclass Basket Ball 1-2-3-4. FLORENCE ELIZABETH BARROWS Lake Street Bellingham, Mass. “Buffy” A friend is another self.” Whenever that old Bellingham bus heaves in sight in the morning we know Buffy is on it, ready to go to school and make it a better place. We think she does make it a nice place. Buffy is a fine classmate— always seeing the good points in a person. We can find a lot in the line of study that is to her credit—and may see her in the future in a high place on the ladder of success. Glee Club 1-2-3. 18

i WILLIAM CHRISTAKES Garfield Street Franklin, Mass. “Bill” “Christy” I am sure care is an enemy to life.” Where is Christy? Down at the pool room. This is Christy’s favorite hangout. If he is not there, he will be seen driving a truck. If he is doing neither of these two things, he can be found in school. He likes to have a good time but he is also a good scholar. He has taken the general course in his four years in high school and he will probably go to work following his graduation. Good luck, Christy. HAROLD CLARK 1086 West Central Street Franklin, Mass. “Eskie” ‘ ‘ Always spin but never spoon. The gentleman often seen driving around town in a snappy Ford Roadster is Eskie. No matter if it is rain or shine Harold always has something big on after school. He truly has been a busy fellow but never too busy to laugh and joke with his classmates, which makes Harold a very desirable friend. Good luck to you, Harold, and may your future be as bright as your days in Franklin High were. Football 2-3, Orchestra 3- ROBERT CLARK Crescent Street Franklin, Mass. “Bob” “ Artistic Fingers. “Wit” and “Artist” should have been Bob’s middle names. Many times did a classroom burst into laughter at some of his witty remarks and dry humor. Everyone who has seen the “Nuts Parade” will also recognize Bob’s talent as an editor and cartoonist. He has taken the college course during his four years in school and he expects to continue his study of journalism at Boston University. We all know that Bob will succeed and we wish him the best of luck. Dramatic Club 4, Baseball 4. LOUIS COREY 20 Ruggles Street Franklin, Mass. “Louie” ‘ ‘ 1 shall succeed —’ ’ His hair is the envy of all. No hairdresser could have done a better job in making it so curly, and crinkly. Think of the care involved in keeping all those tendrils so nice and curly. He is considered one of Doc’s good-looking young actors, quite an actor at that. He was kept very busy at English period—always being called down to the office. If you’ve ever played cards with Louie you know what a card shark he is. Good wishes and success for whatever you attempt to do, Louie. Orchestra 1-2-3-4, Band 1-2-3-4, Dramatics 2-3-4, Operetta 1-2, Junior Prom Committee 3, Oskey Committee 4, Marshal 3-4. 20
