511 Union Street Franklin MARY NINA VARJIAN ‘•MAY ' ‘Match me with a good dancer.” Everyone is envious of Mary due to her ability to dance exceedingly well. (Why shouldn ' t we be?). Mary is a sports enthusiast, and she shows it by attending the school’s various athletic contests. Whenever you hear anyone yelling at any of our games, you will know that it is Mary as she is a very loyal rooter. (Mary, may you also continue to be so after you leave school) . Mary is one of the fortunate students of our Secretarial Group who obtained a part-time position before graduation; therefore, she is plan¬ ning to continue working. Although you don’t need our wishing you any success, Mary, we are going to wish you some just the same.

Although she does, very little talking in class, she makes up for it outside. As for her fut ure education, Mickey may attend Framingham Teachers’ College. Who knows? She may be teaching our children some day!
