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.

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.

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.

EDWARD CHARLES DAILEY 100 Union Street Franklin “EDDIE” “A speedy youth in more ways than one.” Introducing the captain of 42’s undefeated basketball team, Eddie Dailey. “Eddie” has been, until recently, a quiet boy, active in sports but with little interest in girls. At present he has proven himself to be very popular with the fairer sex. In fact, we can’t keep track of his heart interests. How many of us have noticed and commented upon the springy jumps that “Eddie’’ is able to accomplish for a “high one” on the basketball court? Just keep your aim for success in the future as you did your aim for the hoop, “Eddie,” and you ' ll be right on top. Junior Prom Committee 3. Basketball 1, 2, 3, 4. Baseball 2, 3, 4.

CHARLES DANGELO 32 Hutchinson Street Franklin “CHARLIE” “COUSIN” ‘‘Fun loving and gay is Charlie all day.” “Charlie” is one of our swell football players. Whenever he played, he went in the game to win. On the field or in school, “Charlie” is one of the best-natured Senior boys. Speaking of boys, “Charlie” was always seen with his cousin (which is quite unusual). “Charlie” is thinking of becoming an aviation mechanic. If he works at his favorite ambition as he did at school, we can be sure that he will succeed. In order to keep the planes flying, the United States must have “Charlie” as their mechanic. Good luck, Charlie, and “Keep ’em Flying.” Junior Prom Committee 3. Football 4. Oskey 4. Military Training 3, 4. WILLIAM W. DANGELO 18 Hutchinson Street Franklin “WILLIE” “BILL” ‘‘Always a-grinning, always a-winning , always a-feeling fine.-” “Willie,” like his cousin, is another of our football players and one of our Senior boys who is liked by everyone. Although “Willie” played only one year of football. Coach Colbert and the remainder of the football team will certainly miss his performance on the field. “Willie always pals around with “Charlie” and for cousins they get along very well. Both are always having a jolly time just for the enjoyment out of it. “Willie,” like his cousin, also wants to take up aviation mechanics. With his winning personality, he is bound to win success.

ELEANOR DeGRAZIO 68 Alpine Place Franklin “SHORTY” ‘‘Always gay and full of fun, Shorty’s a pal to everyone” Eleanor is one of our petite seniors, but that doesn ' t make much difference because as the old saying goes, “Good things come in small packages.” (They are not always noiseless, either). When laughter was about in the room, “Shorty” would be in the midst of it. (1 wonder if she laughs all the time.) She does all the time while in school. As her life work, Shorty would like to take up nursing. With her sweet smile and cherry laughter. Shorty will be the favorite as a nurse. Success to you, Shorty; success is in your way.
