FREDERICK HAWKINS Freddy A quiet tongue showeth a wise head. The class lost Freddy because he liked Schenectady better than Keene-or was it Troy? Maybe the girls there are more attractive-but we doubt it. You're certainly doing good work: Freddy, wherever you are-if you do the same as you did here. EVA BARILE Field Hockey 3, 4: Basketball 1, 3, 4: Com- mercial Club 3, 4 She is pretty to walk with and witty to talk with, and pleasant, too, to think on. Eva is one of our high-class girl athletes of '28. In her freshman year at Keene she earned her letter in basketball. That wasn't enough, so she journeyed to Manchester and there won another insignia for her remarkable services, She became homesick, however. as we all desired. and returned to Keene. We expect to hear great praise of her in her career as a nurse. JOHN BARRY Jack Basketball 1, 2, 3, 4: Baseball 1, 2, 3, 4: Year Book 4 ls there anyone who doesn't know Jack? We will all remember his famous bums, his long. accurate shots at a basket, and above all his Kissel. Jack isn't very tall but he meas- ures up well in some other things. If you want to know what they are, ask Jack. RAYMOND BARRETT Sheik M. A. Club l, 2, 3, 4 And with sweet ladies, With my words and looks. Raymond has been true to his nick name of sheik, especially since he moved down in the neighborhood of the Normal School. He says he wishes to study forestry. We hope he has as much success as a forest ranger as he has had in finding teachers, both trained or in training, to skate with him. HAROLD BECKWITH Becky For courage mounteth with occasion. Harold is a model student. and we can heart- ily advise all freshmen to follow in his foot- steps. We believe that if he continues to main- tain his standard set in K. H. S., he will be soon far on the road to success as a radio expert.

LAWRENCE E. ALDRICH Monk M. A. Club 3: Hockey 1 On the wings of the wind. Monk is right at home in the great out-of- doors, especially, when on skiis or skates. We understand that Monk is going to become a high flyer for he intends to enter an aviation school after graduation. MYRTLE SHAW ATHERTON N an Mu Delta Rho 3: Commercial Club 3, 4 A peace above all earthly dignities, A still and quiet conscience. You ought to see Nan make the typewriter keys fly! Commercial students of '28 will surely miss hearing her pound the keys. If she is as successful as a teacher of commercial sub- jects as she has been as a typist, we know she will rise to the top. GORDON AYER Orchestra 1, 2, 3: Band 4 And thereby hangs a tale Gordon is a quiet fellow around the school but, oh my, when he starts putting wind through the working end of a saxophone, how the time does fly. We don't think Gordon ever retires before 12 a. m. for between the members of the Normal School and his radio, he is kept very busy. Northeastern will be very fortunate, Gordon, to be able to welcome you to its school next year. ROLAND WILFRED BAKER Nap M. A. Club 3, 4 My heart is true as steel. Why did they call you Nap, Roland? Pos- sibly you take a few naps in the store, but we advise you not to if you are to become a Manager. We wish you the best of luck, any- way, Nap. JAMES BALLOU, JR. Jim Football 1, 2, 3, 4 The smaller they are the harder they fall. Jim, we are inclined to think, as he, him- self, admits, that he, too, prefers b1ondes. Well, Jim, we hope that when you are a dentist you will have lots of them to practice on.

IVAN R. BECKWITH Now the bartIe's ended, the way is plain to parish church. Ivan is a very hard working lad, and turns to music for relaxation and amusement. Our ad- vise to you, Ivan is that if you are to be a suc- cessful minister. you must not, upon seeing someone smile in the congregation burst out laiaghing-as you did once in fourth year Eng- lis . CASPER C. BEMIS Charlie Treasurer 3: Football 4: M. A. Club 3, 4: Science Club 3, 4 Fear is king of all. Everyone certainly enjoys being in any of Casper's classes--except, maybe. the teachers. He says he expects to become a lawyer-and we all hope he succeeds with his powers of persua- sion. HAZEL BEMIS When you do dance, I wish you a wave o' th' sea, that you might ever do nothing but that. Hazel is another one of those Fitzwilliam girls who joins us every morning at eight o'clock. Hazel has always appeared to be very quiet but we would like to see her in Fitzwil- liam. As a private secretary, Hazel, we all know you'll be a wonder, and we all wish you the best of luck during your advanced educa- tion. MILLARD S. BEMIS Mil : Snappy Treasurer 2. Hockey 3, And gladly would he learn, and gladly teach. Millard is another hard working member of '28, We don't blame him for liking to dance. any more than we do for aspiring to be Direc- tor of Public Utilities Company, for there are good lookers at both. He is going to attend N. H. U. Millard. when you become Direc- tor, don'r forget to give the class of '28 special rates. WILLIAM BEMIS Billy If anyone wants to know how to pop the question. ask Billy. If experience is the greatest teacher, then Billy is well versed in many things for between Chesham and Keene he has gleaned a complete education. Bon voy- age, Billy.
