WINNIFRED GREEN “Of all things.” A quiet young lady, with lustrous brown hair and an appealing smile—possesses all the qualities which make a good friend—a sweet demoiselle, we say. Secretary ’28; Usher, Class Play; Glee pee, 30. Pehl AIL TZ “Oh, where's that fountain pen?” iithel has unusual ability in relating all the events of a party “the morning after the night before’. Do we need to add that her audience is usually very attentive during these discourses’ However, Ethel does not always employ her time in talking, for she is very serious in her school work. Public Speaking Club ’28; Book and Scroll Club ’29; Glee Club ’30; Refreshment Commit- tee, Senior Reception; “Mrs. Forrester”, Class Play; Pro Merito. GEORGE JORDAN “Huh?” “For all is jolly and all is free”, whistles George as he goes from room to room perform- ing his various harmless pranks. A class-room without the presence of this young man is a dull room, indeed. We know Jordan’s favor- ite subject is American History, for he becomes very excited while relating any historical event. Advertising and Program Committee, Class Play; Boys’ Glee Club, ’28, ’29; Adver- tising Committee, Senior Reception. RUBY LADD OP MINCE STS A courteous and affable Ruby, who is neither very talkative nor forward—just right —always obliging us with a favor—and the best person to spend a warm afternoon with— she is pleasant. Usher, Class Play; Latin Club ’29, ’30, ’31; Decorating Committee, Senior Reception; Girls’ Glee Club, ’29, 730. Pe or LOVELY “Don't kid yourself.” Hazel is a very energetic girl in her stud- ies. During recess periods she is always sur- rounded by a noisy group of classmates. Their password seems to be “Come one, come all, but bring your strongest vocal powers!” The prob- lem is, Who does the listening ? Chairman, Candy Committee, Class Play; Girls’ Glee Club ’29, 780; Decorating Comumit- tee, Senior Reception. eis) |

LILLIE FARINELLA “Gee, isn’t that funny.” We wonder where lively, energetic Lillie got her inspiration to write “Dreamy Moon”. We’re sure her singing powers are a gift from the goddess of song. Perhaps some day we shall hear her singing “La Boheme” over the radio.

WILLIAM DiGIOVANNI “For cryin’ out loud!” Bill’s grin is so contagious that even the teachers surrender when he is on duty as an athletic collector. Bill’s special weakness is sports. Doesn’t he look it? Usher, Senior Reception; Boy’s Glee Club 30, ’31; Ticket Committee, Class Play; Ath- letic Committee ’31; Football Letters ’29, 730, 31; Captain Football ’31; Basketball Letters 29, ’30. ’31; Baseball Letters ’29, 30; Captain Baseball ’30; Brockton Tournament ’29, 731; M.

STANLEY MacPHADDEN “Take it easy.” Stanley is noted for his tenor voice and his ability to lead the Collegians. His flourishes with the baton display, we think, the mark of genius. Boys’ Glee Club ’29, ’80, ’31; Chairman, Orchestra Committee, Class Play; Advertising Committee, Senior Reception. RUSSELL McAULIFFE “Can you beat it?” Russ is the famous athlete who came to us from Foxboro—making Foxboro’s loss our gain. He is a happy-go-lucky pal, always ready for fun and action. Property Committee, Class Play; Usher, Senior Reception; Football ’31; Basketball ’30; Baseball 730; M. I. T. Tourney ’30. ELEANOR MERRILL “Aw, deel Beauty and art. El is, we think, the most artistic girl in the class. Her drawing are admired by everyone, but Kk] has an uncontroll- able leaning towards the fascinating art of toe-dancing. However, waltzes, foxtrots, one steps—in fact, any steps are irresistible to El’s twinkling feet. Usher, Class Play; Artist, Ye Yeare Booke; Latin Club ’30; Advertising Committee, Senior Reception; Girls’ Glee Club ’28, ’29, ’31. HARRY MITCHELL “Stop itl” Some people can hide all their tom-fool- eries by a grin: that’s Harry. He is always an affable and obliging fellow. Do we need to add that he has many friends? President 728; Advertising and Program Committee, Class Play; Baseball ’29; Boys’ Glee Club ’29, ’80; Ticket Committee, Junior Reception. VELIA MORETTI “Really?” Velia possesses a superabundance of hob- bies, the outstanding ones being drawing and writing. She is blessed with that rare combina- tion—humor and common sense—but her out- standing quality is her charm. The girls are all inclined to envy her her hair, and they are justified in doing so.
