PAULINE BROOKS HARNDEN “Pauly” It merely is a shame what a mere type- writer can do to a person! It ean easily cor- rupt one’s language. Pauline takes a fancy to red hair and basket- ball players. It seems as though these iwo traits go together as shown in another case in this class. CLARICE HARRINGTON Sweet and demure! That is Clarice’s stamp. Looks deceive, though; especially in her case. She may be sweet, but demure? Clarice’s favorite pastime is laughing. And it’s a good healthy laugh she possesses, too. Many say she is romantically inclined . . . I wonder why! FRANK EVERETT HARRIS “T don’t get going very often, but when I Comes. !” Everett hails from North Leominster, where they grow ice. He isn’t much of a sheik as yet; but just wait! M. A. C. seems to have attracted Everett; so here’s good luck to him in the future. VIOLA ETHEL HILTZ “Vi” is one of the literary bugs in our high school. It is a relief to have one of her kind in class, after all the “dumb” ones. Though not athletically inclined, she is a loyal sup- porter of all teams. Watch out for Marion, Vi! CLAYTON LUCIUS HODGE “And silence like a poultice comes to heal. the blows of sound.” His highness spends his time in pursuing the English dictionary and slinging it! His accomplishments include balancing teacher’s registers, performing in plays and vaudeville shows, and furnishing amusement for a female of the Library Board. What would we do without our Joke Editor? Here’s to times’ power of shrinkage! 25

ALFRED WALLACE GOVE “His Heart is in his Work.” Wallace is one of the lights of our class. He is a hard and consistent worker, always achiev- ing that for which he aims. Last year, he won first prize in Competitive Drill. Wallace is not by any means a grind, and sometimes he - does show a gust of humor. CURTIS REGINALD GREENLAW “A modest and well mannered youth.” Curtis, who is better known by the less mu- sical name of Curt (due not to his character, but to a contraction of his full legal title) is well liked by all his classmates. His social activities are limited to one field of endeavor, the Glee Club. EVELYN MARY GREENLAW “It’s the Horrors.” Here we have Evelyn without her Arthur. Don’t be surprised. Evelyn is one of the busiest girls in our school. Collecting English Club dues, Annual Literature, taking part in plays, and vaudeville is how she spends her time. This young lady is quite popular, and has aided in the launching of many new move- ments. JOHN GRUBB Otherwise known as “Johnny,” is a shy re- tiring boy, but nevertheless, a boy of great ability. He is one of the main props under the band and orchestra. We cannot imagine what would become of Kingsbury if he could not depend on Johnny for the answers to his chemistry questions. He is also one of our most noted “trig sharks.” HILDEGARDE LENNEA GUSTAFSON “Sweet, demure, a lovable girl” Hilda is one of our quiet girls, who gets re- sults from her class work. Tuesday morning, during the extra period, she is always helping out some poor unfortunate with his short-hand. Hilda says basketball gives her nice red cheeks. Well, we’re inclined to believe it. 24

u ii Sa ea ary 3 Ss eS Hee FLORENCE HORTON Florence is one of our future film writers. We have great hopes in Florence. Her writ- ings are very realistic and just throbbing with life. She also is a student who especially inclines to history. Her reassuring giggle gur- gles out to raise our dejected spirits. How could we ever do without it? DOROTHY IRELAND “Dot” This young lady is an industrious commer- cial student. Her daily rest is in the sixth period, during which she reads any and all books she can get hold of. Her favorite ex- pression is “the dickens!” DORIS JOHNSON Doris is one of the possessors of that rare shade of Titian hair! It really is very pretty! Doris is a lively typist and can prove it to anyone. Perhaps she will some day, when she gets a position with one of the large Lemon factories of Shirley. ELEANOR JOHNSON Eleanor is another one of our rather quiet girls, but this has not interfered with her good work on the News Staff and in the Wel- fare Department. Many scared freshmen have faced her but they all come out of the De- partment room with a smile. Girls like you make good teachers, Eleanor. VIVIAN JOHNSON Vivian may mean “vivacious,” but our Viv- ian proves an exception to the rule. She is in- deed so quiet as to sometimes deserve the “Speak louder, please” of the teachers. Vivian hopes to become a school teacher. We know the children will like her. 26
