She was a member of various athletic teams in high school and was an ardent supporter of the boys’ teams. Always ready to have some fun we seldom see Arlene without a smile on her face. Her sparkling personality without a doubt is the reason for her popularity. What she plans for the future she has not said, but we wish her good luck and success in her special field of endeavor.

BARTOLOMEI 36 Hutchinson Street Franklin “LEFTY” To laugh once a day keeps the doctor away”. “Lefty” is a very avid sports fan and a very good athlete. He excelled as pitcher and co-captain of the baseball team, as well as a sub forward on our excellent basketball team. “Lefty” knows sports inside out, and anyone that argues with him on sports is usually left on the shorter end. “Lefty” is awaiting call from the Navy since he passed the Navy tests with flying colors. We are sure “Lefty’s” future will be safe in Uncle Sam’s hands, and we wish him Good Luck and Godspeed. Footbcll (Manager) 3, 4. Basketball 1, 2, 3, 4. Baseball 2, 3, 4. Junior Traffic Corps 3, 4.

THE OSKEY FRANKLIN HIGH SCHOOL THERESA BIANCHINI 94 Elliot Street Norwood “SPEEDY” Shy at first, but a good sport when known” Theresa always seemed quiet but that is only when you don’t know her. By her friends she was missed in our Senior year when she moved to Norwood. We soon learned, early in our high school career, that she possessed great musical ability. She played the violin in the orchestra, and we hear that she is a mem¬ ber of the Norwood High School band and orchestra. Our best wishes to a former classmate; may you al¬ ways find luck and happiness. Hallowe ' en Party 4. Girls ' Sports 1, 2, 3, 4. Orchestra 1, 2, 3, 4. NORMAN JAMES BISHOP 47 Worsted Street Franklin “BISH” A friend that satisfies” Norman is a very good-natured boy. If anyone has seen him angry, I certainly should like to know of it be¬ cause it’s so unusual. “Bish” was a member of our baseball team He could always be counted upon to get his share of hits. “Bish” is well liked by all his classmates, and that isn’t hard to understand if you know him.
