228 Summer Street Franklin “GIN” “GINNY” “A Smil e full of sunshine A Heart full of song. Ginny” is a friendly and good natured girl who has a lot of friends. She has been a loyal rooter at all F. H. S. games. Although Ginny is quiet in class, there is a rumor that she can make a lot of noise when she wants to. A pet peeve of Ginny’s is that in English she usually has the honor of being the first girl called upon to give her oral composition. (Do you blame her?) Keep up your giggles, Ginny, for we know they will lead you to an enjoyable future. Junior Prom Committee 3. Freshman Acquaintance Party 4. Hallowe ' en Party Committee 2, 3. Etiquette Club 2.

He is very sociable, and has an interesting personality. Jimmy has combined sports with studies and done wonderfully well in both. He played basketball and football and deserves much credit for his performances in both. He also has been on the honor roll be¬ cause of his high grades in his studies. As to his life work, Jimmy has not as yet decided, but in whatever he may plan to do his friends are all wishing him the best of luck. Junior Prom Committee 3. Football 3, 4. Basketball 3, 4.

CATRO 79 West Street Franklin “SAM” “He has won just praise that he deserved.” Sammy is one of our most studious fellow students. He takes life seriously and is one of the few who believes in having his homework done daily. Sammy doesn’t seem to care much for the girls, but he did take a certain girl in our class to the Hop last year. Sammy is well-talented in dramatics and has given many successful performances. He plans to go on to college. We wish him loads of luck in what¬ ever he undertakes in the future. He deserves it! Junior Prom Committee 3. Freshman Acquaintance Party 4.

RUTH MARIE COMOLLI 234 Lincoln Street Franklin “RUTIIIE” “Dimples in her cheeks, dimples in her chin, You ' re always sure of lots of fun when Ruth comes rushing in” Ruthie has been chosen as the best-dressed senior girl. (She always did look nice didn’t she?) Of course, no added remarks need be made about her hair, which, as you probably know, is her own natural wave. Ruth has more than the usual share of attractiveness and with her personality plus, she will get along. Ruth has not decided yet whether to be a hair dresser or an art de¬ signer, but we are sure she will be a credit to whichever she chooses. Junior Prom Committee 3. Blue and White 4.

Franklin 226 West Central RUTH A. BEAUDETTE Street “RUTHIE” “Shy at first, but a good sport when known.” One of those deceiving girls. Ruthie is quiet and serious to all out¬ ward appearances, but she is really capable of much fun-making. She has the faculty of making all friends and no enemies and retaining them like a diplomat. Ruthie is another of our athletic supporters. She followed all the games and ably supported both the participants and cheering section. Ruth ' s ambitions are unknown, but if she perseveres as she has done while in school, she will be very successful in her chosen vocation. Good luck. Ruthie, and never let anything overcome your gay and very ambitious spirit. Junior Prom Committee 3. Freshman Acquaintance Party 4. Etiquette Club 2. Glee Club 1, 3. LLOYD E. BLACKWOOD 92 Pleasant Street Franklin “TEAK” “Laugh and the world laughs with you.” We have never heard very much from Lloyd while he has been with us these last four years. (Maybe he is bashful.) Lloyd seemed to be interested in sports, because he attended quite a few of the games during the seasons. He never went out for sports because he has always worked after school. Lloyd doesn ' t know what he plans to do in the future. But what¬ ever you do, success to you, Lloyd. Military Training 3, 4. DORIS M. BRENNAN 121 Grove Street Franklin “DOT” “A girl with a very pleasing smile Making our classes worth while.” Dot is a pleasant and attractive girl who has many friends. She is quiet, but we do like her company. She has proven to be a good sport not only in classes but also in athletics. Dot’s friendly manner will be a great help to her in her chosen field. She has the desire to become a nurse and without the slightest doubt she will prove to be a most capable one. Junior Prom Committee 1. Freshman Acquaintance Party 1. Hallowe’en Party Committee 1.

(He should make more noise. Don’t you think so?) He is very sociable and has a very nice personality, so I have found out by his friends. Elwyn also enjoys sports very much, but he never went out for the teams for reasons unknown. He has no definite plans for the future but in whatever he does plan to do, all his classmates wish him the best of luck. Basketball 3. Oskey 4. Military Training 3, 4.

Franklin fog He 664 East Central Street CAROLYN COOK “COOKIE ' ’ “Aye, Every inch a Queen. Ask Cookie. She always has an answer to anyone ' s problems. She certainly has been an answer to Doc ' s problems at assembly times for one was never quite complete without her. We’ll always remem¬ ber the swell work she put into every Oskey Show especially this year’s. But these are only a few of her attributes. She is a born leader and nothing whatever appalls her. The title of the best-looking girl in the class has become hers. Cookie’s bright smile and cheery manner will bring her success we know. Junior Prom Committee 3. Senior Hop Committee 4.

Central Street Franklin “DOT” “BLOSSOM” “A smile full of cheer’’ Dot is one of the newer members of the class having entered Franklin High from Keene, N. H. at the beginning of our Junior year. Dottie has been a most welcome addition to the class not only for her cheerful, good-natured self but as a good addition to our orchestra. Dot plans to attend Wilfred Academy in Boston after graduation, but as we gazed into our crystal ball we foresaw Dottie changing from a Cook” to a ‘‘Miller.” Orchestra 3, 4. Oskey (Production) 3, 4. JOSEPH CORNETTA 69 East Central Street Franklin “JOE” “I must have music’’ Joe has been told by his many friends that he could easily make his fortune by doubling for a famous comedy star. (Three guesses who!) Joe’s ambition is to form an orchestra of his own and play at all F. H. S. dances! Joe has music in him, so we don ' t doubt that he will become a famous orchestra leader. Good luck, Joe, and keep up with your music. Junior Prom Committee 3. Hallowe’en Party Committee 3. Band 1, 2, 3, 4. Oskey 3, 4. Military Training 2, 3, 4. MARGARET ANNETTE CROSTA 246 Washington Street Franklin “MARGIE” “A little with quiet is the only diet.” A girl who always looks so neat and pretty and whose hair is the envy of her classmates — that is Margie.” Margie is a shy but pleasant member of our class. She is a de¬ voted player of basketball, and it certainly is a pleasure to watch her play. Margie” has plans of attending a hairdressing school, and we feel confident of her success.
