MELVILLE McCORMICK 216 School Street Franklin “Red” was always ready to put the class in stitches with his remarks. He could say something on a serious subject and you would be laughing for five minutes. Red was a regular attendant of our school affairs. “Red’s” plans for the future are not known but whatever they are we wish him luck. BARBARA MAR G ERSON 83 Dean Avenue Franklin Here’s a girl who was always happy. Her smiles never failed to bring an answering smile. “Barb’s” won¬ derful sense of humor made many happy moments for both the boys and girls of F.H.S.

He is blessed with a pleasant smile which is almost always in use. We haven’t heard what “Sammy” plans to do but our best wishes go to him. GLORIA MORIN 39 Worsted Street Franklin “Jitterbug” would be a good name for Gloria, for when it comes to expounding the virtues of “le jazz hot,” especially “Boogie Woogie,” she can’t be beat. However those who know Gloria know that she can be very in¬ telligent about serious subjects also. Lots of luck, Gloria. Keep that cheery smile always. S.

JAMES HARVEY 8 Forge IIill Unionville Jimmy joined our class in the middle of our senior year so we really haven’t gotten to know him well. He has seemed to have acquired many friends in the short time that he has been with us. We hope he will have a successful future. ROBERT KEARNEY 10.1 Dean Avenue Franklin Bob is one of our class wits. His remarks made our English Class quite a gala affair at times.

LORETTA MUCCIARONE “Carmie” is one of our quiet set. In fact she’s so quiet that she’s been voted the quietest Senior. They say a quiet word is a sign of an active mind. It’s pretty certain that this is true of Carmella. She will endear herself as . a good listener, which is one thing few of us will ever do. • james McDonald 17 Church Street • Franklin Meet the captain of the panther basketball team who won the title of the “fireball” from the announcers at the Boston Garden game. Fast and tricky Jimmy was an outstanding performer in all three sports during his four years. Plenty of drive plus a will to win made him a “player’s player” and a good leader on the field. “Jim” also found time to take part in many school activities and was a loyal supporter of all social events.
