MAVIS E. DUFRESNE Centre Street Bellingham, Mass. “DUFFY” “A blithe heart makes a blooming visage. Mavis represents the best example of what a South Bellingham girl should be. She has offered her talents as a violinist to the orchestra for the full time she spent in high schocl. Studious and good-natured, Mavis was well liked by all her classmates. Certainly what this world needs is more girls like Mavis. Orchestra 1, 2, 3, 4. Prom Committee 3. Ring Committee. Oskey Committee 4. ORLANDO T. DiPIETRO 19 Mechanic Street Bellingham, Mass. “PETE” “Small but Mighty.” Orlando gives the added zip to every class he attends, and his daring exploits will long be remembered by the feminine group. The honors of the High School Band may be well shared by Orlando, for what would the band be like without his tooter?” With engineering as his goal, he is bound to succeed. Band 1, 2, 3, 4. Hockey 3. IDA ROBERTA ESTES Scott Hill Road Bellingham, Mass. “LEFTY” “ Work a little, play a little. Ida is one of our best-liked classmates. Whenever anyone of us was “stuck on a Math, or Science problem we always went to Ida and she patiently helped us to see the light, (although at times it was pretty dim). She was a fine musician in both the band and orchestra. Ida’s cheerful and amiable nature will certainly prove a great help in future years. Orchestra 1, 2, 3, 4. Band 3, 4. Glee Club 1, 2. Junior Prom 3. FLORENCE E. FEELEY 140 East Central Street Franklin, Mass. “IRISH” “LIZ” Aye, Every inch a Queen.” A girl who has done much for the school is Florence. In re¬ gard to character, she is unselfish, full of fun, and an exponent of fair play. Much of the success of the Oskey Minstrel Show was due to the able direction of “Irish.” A willing worker, “Liz generally succeeded in whatever she sought. For her voca¬ tion, she has chosen Children’s Nursing, and most of us are glad that second childhood isn’t far away. Dramatics 1, 4. Glee Club 1, 3, 4. Marshal 1, 3. Junior Prom 3.

AMELIA MAE DADDARIO 109 Cottage Street Franklin, Mass. “MAE” “A student as well as an athlete.” Amelia is our favorite girl athlete. Whenever she had that basketball in her possession, she was sure to toss it through the hoop. She was elected Captain of the Varsity Squad in her Senior Y ear. Mae” certainly proved her ability and is recognized by all as a real sport and a good, all-around student. May success be yours in whatever you undertake. Good luck, Mae!” Basketball 1, 2, 3, 4.

MARION PEARL DAVIS 4 Summer Street Franklin, Mass. ”Knowledge is power.” Marion has always been one of the outstanding students of our class. She was voted the most promising Senior girl, and Marion well deserves the title, for she is one of the best students in the class. Marion ' s favorite pastime was receiving and distributing the latest ' news” with her pal, ”Lu” Costello —- a habit which often got them into hot water” with the teachers and resulted in session. Marion intends to continue her studies at Radcliffe. and we hope that she will succeed as well as she has in High School. Dramatics 1. Junior Prom Committee 3. Tennis 4. Bicycle Club (Secretary). Basketball 1. QUINTINA DeBAGGIS 37 Uncas Avenue Franklin, Mass. “QUINTA” ‘‘Good nature and good sense are her companions.” Full of pep and ready for any activity suggested —- that’s “Quinta.” She has excelled in sports for three years, but an attack of appendicitis made it impossible for her to continue during her Senior year. Her good nature and fine personality make us think she will succeed in future life. Qu inta” plans to attend a Physical Education School after she graduates, and we certainly wish her every possible success. Basketball 1, 2, 3. Track 1, 2, 3. Hallowe’en Committee 4. Mar¬ shal 3.

ELENA ANTONETTE DeNAPOLI 136 Washington Street Franklin, Mass. “EL” “BLONDIE” ‘‘Peace is rarely denied to the peaceful.” “El” is one of those deceiving ferns — quiet, serious to all outward appearances, but really capable of as much fun-making as anyone else. El” never had much to say, and she always took a back seat, not because she couldn’t do things, but because she was very quiet and extremely bashful. She speaks few times and very few words, but when she does, she is worth listening to. Basketball 1. Track 1. Commercial Club 4. Page Twenty-Six

ESTON SINCLAIR FOX, JR. 315 Lincoln Street Franklin, Mass. “PROF” “JR.” “FOXY” “Not from the stars do I my judgment pluck.” “Prof has a passion for reading — especially Western Stories. Probably he intends to “go West, young man.” Eston also is a fine musician; he can smear a mean trombone in the Band. “Prof has a mathematical mind and intends to go to Bentley School of Accounting. We hope you get your figures straight, Eston. Band 1, 2, 3, 4. Orchestra 3. Marshal 1, 2, 3, 4. Hockey 2, 3, 4. Blue and White 2, 3. Oskey Finance Committee 4. Junior Prom 3. Freshman Committee 4.

WALTER RAYMOND FRESN 8 Charlotte Court Franklin, Mass. “WALT” “Music hath charms to soothe the savage beast.” When “Brownie ' s Swing Band got started, our class realized that we had an accomplished saxophonist amongst us, for Walter certainly can make that sax sing. We all knew “Walt” to be a violinist, but never a saxophone player. Walter, always a will¬ ing helper, served on many committees during his four years in High School and was a member of the band and orchestra for the four years. These two organizations are losing an able worker by losing Walter. Oskey 2. Marshal 1. Band 1, 2, 3, 4. Orchestra 1, 2, 3, 4. HARVEY W. GARNEAU Mann Street Bellingham, Mass. “His wit and brilliance we can see. And a more true sport could never be.” A roar of laughter down the hall, and Harvey is in the midst of the crowd. Harvey’s remarkable personality and sense of humor rank him among the best, for no class meeting was com¬ plete without his philosophical and witty pointers. His athletic ability has been recognized by all, and his extreme courage banishes the fear of “bone busters.” Harvey ' s greatest ambition is to become a second Will Rogers, and we all wish him success in his future undertakings. Hockey 2, 3, 4. Baseball 2, 3, 4. Football 3, 4. Oskey Jubilee 4. GINA A. GIANARDI 40 Hutchinson Street Franklin, Mass. “Still water runs deep. Gina has broken all records for attendance during her years in the public schools. She has been neither absent nor tardy during this time. If she retains this habit of punctuality throughout her life, she will succeed, we are sure. Gina is one of the quietest girls in the class, but has a pleasing personality which her intimate friends have discovered. Good luck. Gina, and may Lady Luck knock at your door. French Club 1.
