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. Oskey Minstrel Committee 4. Hallowe’en Committee 1, 4. Senior Dance Committee 4. Dramatics 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.

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.

ROY FRANCIS HANCOCK Chestnut Street Franklin, Mass. “ROY” “His quietness of manner belies the mischief that lies beneath.” Roy’s name is synonymous with “good sport,” for Roy cer¬ tainly is one person who is eternally optimistic and cheerful. Even though Roy is bashful and quiet, when he dees speak, he says something worth while. Roy has cruised among us for four years, creating no great stir, but nevertheless his presence was enjoyed by all. Band 1, 2, 3, 4. Baseball 2, 3, 4. Oskey 4. MARY WARE HARLOW Main Street Norfolk, Mass. “BANJO” “Quietly she goes her way, Doing the right thing every day.” Mary was popular for her excellent ability in playing her violin. We know that after having been in the orchestra for four years, she certainly will be missed. She is also quite an accomplished actress, and she appeared in many productions given by the class. Whether she goes into the world of music or chooses other lines of endeavor, we wish her every possible success. Marshal 4. Christmas Ball 4. Dramatics 4. Oskey Jubilee 4. Or¬ chestra 1, 2, 3, 4. Class Historian 4. Year Book 4. Horace Mann Play 4. Social Committee 4. DOROTHY GERTRUDE HARRIS 48 Summer Street Franklin, Mass. “DOTTY” “PERIOD” “Her cheery smiles and sparkling eyes Make many friends where affection lies.” “Dotty,” with such charm as she possesses, really needs no introduction, for her wide interests and ability in social and class affairs have ranked her among the most popular. However, here she is — the brown-eyed, fun-loving lass, with whom there is never a dull moment. Dancing and dramatics hold a great attraction for Dorothy, and she did her share in their pursuit. Such an efficient, friendly girl can’t help being a success. Marshal 3, 4. Glee Club 3. Dramatics 4. Hallowe’en Committee 1, 4. Freshman Committee 4. Junior Prom 3. Year Book 4. Social Com¬ mittee 4.

HERBERT AUSTIN KENYON Beech Street Franklin, Mass. “HERBIE” “An honest man is the noblest work of God.” Quiet and studious, Herbert is one of our classmates who does things silently and efficiently. When any of his classmates got into difficulty over a Chemistry or Physics problem, it was Herb to the rescue. As for Herbert’s future plans, we’re all confident that they’ll be successful.
