HERBERT COREY “Herb” Oh, what a sheik! We notice, though, that he is a “one woman man.” Herbie was our prize center on the basket- ball team this year. He knew his jump! He is also a first-baseman on the baseball team. Don't bother with flannel nickels, Herbie, they shrink. GUY CUTTER Guy “Lengthy” Cutter, nicknamed thus— well, if you don’t know why, ask someone who has seen him. Guy served as vice-president of our class during our freshman year. This year Guy is chairman of the Traffic Depart- ment and carries the distinction of being a second lieutenant in “Eddies Army.” WALTER IRVING DEACON “Deac”’ “How do you do, please! Oh, but politeness is a virtue, Walter!” “Deac” made the winning touchdown for us at Fitchburg. He plays basketball and base- ball, too. One hears rumors that he likes “voung” girls! We wonder! Keep the home fires burning, Walter! (but not too near the cradle.) RAYMOND DEPELTEAU Raymond, known as a pool shark, is quite a boy. His neat appearance, shiny shoes, and slicked hair show that he intends to be a business man in the future. He takes no part in athletics or other school activities, but spends plenty of time studying. MARY FRANCES DORMIN Mary has no real nickname. She’s one of our honor pupils and during her four years with us has taken great interest in all the sports. Very easily known why! Mary is proof con- trary to the saying that red-haired girls dis- like other red-haired people. We know Mary will be successful in college and in her life work. 21

FRANCIS JAMES CAVANAGH “Cav” “Cav” was a player as well as a manager of the basketball team this year. How’s that for apples? He was a member of that gang in Room 4 that Mr. Donnelly had to put up with. He is a member of the track team, too. Watch out for the bees! MARTIN CAVANAGH “Marty” Martin possesses a gift for playing the piano. He is talented, as well, in the vocal line of music. As an actor, Martin takes the wooden nickels. He was leading man in the two oper- ettas the school has given. Don’t let your fingers get mildewed, Marty. EDITH ELIZABETH CLARK “Edie “Kdie” could be heard long before she reached Room 20. We all knew noise and laughter were her greatest assets. She pur- sued the Commercial Course like many other classmates and she was quite a “shorthand shark.” “Edie” was the best janitor in our Gym class even if she did hurt herself while trying to manage the unruly windows. JACK COHEN Readers, gaze upon the one and only real broker L. H. S. ever had! Holding this worthy position didn’t stop Jack from becoming an honor student, though! He was manager of “the” football team of °25. Always rushing, but always having a definite purpose, we leave Jack to carry on his business ability in the future. GEORGE OSCAR CONNORS “Hackey” George, or rather known as “Hackey,” has the appearance of a quiet laddie, but beware, he is right there. Once studying and being late for school were his enjoyments; but now just being with Doris is his only employment. 20

CHAUNCEY EISNER After skipping the eighth grade, Chauncey literally skipped through High School. He received a prize last year for doing the most work under the greatest handicap, and has completed his course in three years. Most of his marks have been A’s. GRACE ELLIOTT Grace, more generally known as “Mickie,’ is a Sterling girl. She believes in being among the minority, in that she is one of the select, who have not bobbed their hair. She is by no means a man hater. Indeed, she seems to have a weakness for the “Ramblers.” MARY FLYNN “May” “May” is a most jovial person. “What's the matter with being late for school every morning?” asks May. This fair one was a very loyal supporter of school athletics. Her reddish hair acted as an attraction to all males. Cheer up, they will fall for anything! Who said “weaker sex?” ADA OPHELIA FOOKES “Dimples” is one of our more wmirthful members. Ada is pursuing the Normal Course and hopes some day to become a teacher. Let us hope she finds that occupation as amus- ing as her present one. Ada is very athletic and plays good basketball. One can depend on seeing her present at all our games. GERTRUDE ISABELLE FOSTER “Gert” Gert won basketball fame for two years. She hails from North Leominster where all intel- ligent scholars come from. She is noted for her height. At present she is letting her hair grow (how could she help its growing) so that she may become a frequenter of Massa- chusetts General next fall. 22
