EILEEN RUTH GRINNELL 14 Wachusett Street Franklin “I” “Graceful and useful in all she does” “I” is one of the girls whom we have taken from another school. She came to Franklin in our Junior year. Because of her sweet manner and grand personality, she quickly made many friends. Eileen is one of the business girls and plans to make office work her career, although she hasn ' t decided on the particular type of work. Success wherever you are always, “I.” Commercial Club 4. Blue and White 4. MILTON GUINARD 27 Alpine Row Franklin “MILT” “Small but Mighty’’ Meet Milton who could very easily write a book on the “Gift of Gab. His powerful voice carries through the corridors and certainly makes up for his lack in height. He ' s always prepared for a good argument with anyone else who (unfortunately) thinks he can put up a good argument, too. “Milt is undecided on the future but he has been working after school hours in a local store. Who knows? Someday he might be a member of the Retail Board of Trade. The best wishes of the class are with you always, Milton. Junior Prom Committee 3. Blue and White 4. Freshman Acquaintance Party 4. Commercial Club 4. Military Training 3, 4. SHIRLEY GURWITZ Union Street Franklin “SHIRT” “Thinking is but an idle thought” Shirley is one of our most-excitable pals. She is disturbed at noth¬ ing sometimes and is disturbed at everything other times. Really though. Shirley is a swell friend and the kids will never forget the fun they have had with her in all her classes. Shirley likes to talk a lot and also likes to write a lot. She writes to a certain “Hi in the army. Great success to you in the future, Shirley. Junior Prom Committee 3. Hallowe’en Party Committee 4. Orchestra 4. Oskey 1, 2, 3, 4. VIRGINIA LORRAINE HAWLEY 147 Maple Street Franklin “GINNY” “GINGER” “Care-free, clever, and sporty” Virginia came to Franklin High from Canton in our Junior year. We are sure Canton missed her not only because she is a brilliant scholar but because of her likable nature. Virginia has made many new friends of both sexes since she ar¬ rived here. “Ginger wants to take a nurses’ training course or go to college. Although she prefers college, we are sure she will succeed in whatever she undertakes to do. Glee Club 1. Oskey 4. Nineteen Hundred Forty-Two Page Twenty-Nine

ROBERT FOX 103 Dean Avenue Franklin “BOB” Eat, drink, and be merry.” “Bob” is a swell kid, but we didn ' t see enough of him. “Bob” liked to play hookey most of the time — or were you playing hookey, “Bobi”’ Seriously, Bob is a good student, very quick to learn, and a grand pal. He has done a lot for Military Training in the position of Captain. Whatever you do when you leave F H. S., “Bob,” you should be a big success. Junior Prom Committee 3. Football 2, 3. Dramatics 1.

He seems quite shy, but we only see him in school (so who knows?) Johnny was chosen as the cutest high school Senior boy. (Don ' t run. girls.) “Johnny” was a member of our undefeated basketball team, and we certainly are proud of him. Johnny was always being teased (mostly by girls and a teacher.) As his career, “Johnny” has decided to be an aviator. With him in the United States Air Corps, I am sure victory is bound to be with us. Loads of luck to you, “Johnny.” Marshal 1 .

CAROLYN GEROMINI 61 King Street Franklin “CARRIE” A Stitch in time saves nine” “Carrie” is a pretty little girl who is inclined to be a bit on the shy side. “Carrie” doesn ' t seem to have much to say, but she is well liked by her schoolmates. “Carrie is the domestic type and likes sewing and cooking very much. Carolyn wants to attend a dressmakers’ school in Boston when she graduates. We wish you luck, Carolyn, and hope you succeed in your chosen career. Junior Prom Committee 3. Etiquette Club 2. Home Economics 1, 2, 4. LOUIS GRICI 664 Union Street Franklin “LOUIE” Silence is golden” “Louie” is one of the very few boys who know how ' to maintain silence. We never heard very much from him in High School but whenever he was asked to do anything, he would always assist as much as possible. He never went out for any sports for reasons we do not know. It’s too bad. too, because he would certainly have helped us during our football season. As his career work, “Louis” does not definitely know what to do. Whatever you do, “Louie,” success to you.

MYRON C. HENRY 10 Garfield Street Franklin “HERK” “Good things come in small packages.” With his engaging personality and good-looks, Myron certainly made a hit with all the girls. He has not the quality of shyness as many imagine but rather is he most friendly. As a member of our swell basketball team, he had an opportunity to show us that he could handle the ball. “Herk” was also a faithful ' music-maker ' ' in the band and a loyal rooter at the football games. Herk was the object of envy among many of his friends because of his ability to jump casually on a motorcycle and go for a jaunt. We know he will continue to speed on to Success. Good luck, Myron. Basketball 3, 4. Band 2, 3, 4. Oskey 1, 2. Military Training 3, 4. JOHN HONCHARUIv Summer Street Franklin “JOHNNY” “He relished a joke and rejoiced in a pun.” Johnny is one of the few boys who never makes a great deal of noise. He could always be counted on to give Mr. Colbert a good argument in history, though. John ' s artistic ability far surpasses any we have seen and his origi¬ nalities have provided much pleasure and riotousness among his class¬ mates. Johnny never had much use for girls until his senior year when he changed his opinion about them. We have no doubt that Johnny’s future will be as it has been in F. H. S., an actively successful one.

RICHARD EDWARD HOLMES 23 Summer Street Franklin “BASIL” “ ' With carefree ways and manner hearty.” Basil is the boy who will take Bill Stern ' s place, because his love is sports. He knows more about different players than any boy in school. Basil. besides being one of our friendliest boys, is also one of the noisiest. He is continually playing pranks and being caught. It is not uncommon to see Basil down in the shop sandpapering desks. (We wonder why!) Best of luck, Basil.” We’ll see you in the news. Marshal 1. Hallowe’en Party Committee 1. Military Training 3, 4. A. A. Captain 1. AUDREY JOHNSON 151 East Central Street Franklin “AUD” “Grand to be merry and wise.” Audrey is a happy-go-lucky girl, always smiling and laughing, never frowning. She spreads a ray of sunshine wherever she is. She is quick-witted, not only outside of class but also in class. Whenever Miss Wiggin had difficulty in getting an answer, she just had to call on Sammy or Audrey. Audrey plans to go to Normal School next fall. Whatever you un¬ dertake should be easy for you, Audrey. Junior Prom Committee 3. Blue and White 1, 4. Freshman Acquaintance Party 4. Hallowe’en Party Committee 2, 3. Dramatics 1, 3.
