ROBERT ANDERSON 7 Milliken Ave. Franklin “Bob” Bob has won many honors this year in being nominated for the Pepsi Cola Scholarship and qualifying in the N.R.O.T.C. Besides studying, he has found time to play basketball, both J. V. and varsity, and to be class treasurer for his first three years. In addition, he is also the editor-in-chief of the yearbook. It looks as if Bob will be in Harvard next year, and we hope he does as well there as he has done here. PHYLLIS ALTHEA AUSTIN 50 Dean Avenue Franklin ‘“Bunny” Bunny combines an attractive personality, a keen sense of humor, and an abundance of brain power to make her one of our most popular classmates, liked by both teachers and fellow students. Bunny is also gifted artistically, and her vocational ambition is to apply this talent in the world of fashion. We know that success will follow Bunny through future school years and out into the business world. GEORGE BELYEA Plain Street Franklin George found himself in our midst in the middle of our junior year, coming from Braintree High. After we finally caught up with George and his Ford long enough to get to know him, we found that a very pleasing personality had been added to our class. Full of fun and ever ready with a joke, he always made study hall more enjoyable. His burning desire after graduation is to travel, preferably to California, before settling down to any further education. Hope the Ford holds together, George. MARY BENNETT 72 Hutchinson Street Franklin Blondie” A cheery smile heralds Mary, one of the well-liked girls of our class. The diamond on Mary’s finger spells real happiness for her in the future. I don’t think Mary will forget her class¬ mates. and we will always remember her. All the luck in the world! AM xc A 7 Nineteen hundred and forty-eight Page Nineteen

ELEANOR ACCORSI 360 West Central Street Franklin “Ellen Ellen is seemingly a quiet girl to all those who don ' t know her very well, but those who had English fifth period know differently. She provoked many a laugh when she came forth with her witty remarks, both among teachers and students. Ellen stood out among the Commercial students and she wants to further her business education. Lucky the school that gets our Ellen! BEATRICE ELEANOR AJEMIAN 42 Pond Street Franklin Bea ” Bea is the girl who gave so generously of her time and talent whenever the class needed (as it so often did) a person of ar¬ tistic ability to decorate for a social, draw for a ‘Blue and White”, or make a few posters. She plans to attend the School of Practical Arts in Boston and who knows but what the above-mentioned posters may someday be prized as Ajemian Originals!” MARY MAUDE ALLARD 273 Summer Street Franklin “Maudie The thing we all like most about Mary is her enthusiastic wholeheartedncss. Even if she had had no athletic ability, it would have been worthwhile to keep her on the girls ' hockey, basketball, and softball teams just as a general spirit-lifter. Mary’s athletic and scholastic talents, together with her happy disposition, will make her a valuable and welcome member of next year’s freshman class at Boston University. MARSDEN REINHOLD ANDERSON 151 Union Street Franklin “Skippy Those of us who are not so gifted envy Skippy’s gift of gab; it must be wonderful to be able to ad lib on any subject. Skip tells us that, when he’s not at school or toiling at the AUP. he can be found sleeping. As for the future, his ambition is to be a millionaire, and, when this dream comes true, we hope he remembers his many friends in the class of 1948. Page Eighteen Nineteen hundred and forty-eight

a PHYLLIS BERTONE West Street Franklin Phyr Phyllis is one of the quietest and most unassuming members of the class, but she is interested in all doings of the class of “48”. She is a member of the Business Course and next year plans to go job-hunting with the talents she has acquired in this field. HARRY MELBOURNE BOONE 61 Cottage Street Franklin Although Harry never was noted for his talking, we knew he was around when we heard a cheerfully-whistled tune in the corridors or spotted a good-natured grin. Harry excelled as a builder; he could always be counted upon to repair the damage done to desks and chairs by more ram¬ bunctious classmates. Although not an athlete himself, Harry supported Franklin High ' s teams with a loyalty and enthusiasm that will stand him in good stead in whatever he undertakes. ARTHUR BOURETT Oak Street Franklin “Art” Art” is one of the boys who lives so far away that we wonder how he participates in so many school activities. He was one of the steady, reliable men on the football team; not spectacular, but always dependable. Although he is not seen around school much, being one of the bus-boys”, he is well- liked by all. SHIRLEY BRAUNEIS 5 Grove Street Franklin “ Browneyes” Her name fits her well, for those big brown eyes with the ever¬ present twinkle are the first thing you notice after hearing Shir¬ ley ' s infectious giggle. She is one of the most willing workers in our class and can always be counted on to give uncomplain¬ ingly of her time and energy. One of our outstanding Commercial students, Shirley will, we are sure, make an excellent secretary for some lucky boss. Nineteen hundred and forty-eight
