THE SASSAMON PAGE TWENTY-FIVE GUESS nf 1925 Yes, this is Amelia Maud Aitken. If AMELIA AITKEN Amelia will kindly step out from behind those new head-lights, we'll acknowledge the introduction. As a slight word of warn- ing, we might caution you about closing the doors carefully behind you when Amelia is around, for the sight of one being closed by a breeze is inclined to make Amelia slightly nervous, and we should hate to see anything happen to those goggles. You should see Amelia play basket-ball! With shouts of tackle 'em low, boys, she surely does go at 'em. As for playing baseball--words fail me! She is some pitcher! On the whole, Amelia is a pretty good kid, even though she does come from Bermuda. Framnigham Normal is going to see what it can do for her next year, then Amelia will go out into the wide world and teach the little children their A B C's. We extend our heartfelt sympathy to the children. Doug is one of the boys who prefers the DOUGLAS ATKINSON balmy atmosphere created by the Windy Charles to the good old terra iirma of Natick proper. This in part accounts for Doug's being such a good foot-ball player, as he developed good condition running for the bus every morning. Besides being a member of the foot-ball team, he was a member of the Glee Club and custodian of the bicycle room for the last two years. Doug is interested in the raising of hen fruit and we wouldn't be surprised to see his picture on the cover of the Poultry Magazine, as the Champion Egg Produc- er of Massachusetts. Gladys always wears a smile, which prob- GLADYS BALDWIN ably means she is content with school life and has no other worries. When school is coming to a close, at the end of a day, Gladys is always heard to remark, f'I must do this much studying tgnightf' That perhaps is good judgment. YOU Would be surprsed but Gladys has an Autograph b00k HOW- I SUPPOSC as 1011? HS it is all the fad, Gladys must be in line. Helen is another one of these quite people HELEN BATES from Wellesley Park. She has spent her four years being very studious, with the result that she expects to be certified for Framingham Normal School next year. Helen has not taken a very great part in activities, as her time outside of school has been taken up in reading and studying. The Senior girls, however, will rememberher as guard on their Senior Class Team! She was also a member of the Dramatic Club in Junior year. Heeln, we wish you success at Framingham and as a teacher! Teresa is the young lady that furnished so much entertaining music for us all through our four years. She belonged to the Dramatic and Glee Clubs and the Orchestra, doing her bit in all three. Teresa has wonderful wavy hair. We certainly admit that she's got the Marcelle skun a mile. There is a more conservative side to Ter- esa,-next year Framingham Normal is honored by her enrollment in the Freshman TERESA BIANCHI Class.

PAGE TWENTY-SIX THE SASSAMON . On the nineteenth day of May, in the year FRANK BISHOP Urrankle, of our Lord one thousand nine hundred and eight, was born, in the city of Dorchester, Massachusetts, a boy who received as his first great honor, his father's name, Frank. Passing over a few years we find that in 1914 he is living in Natick, in the same state. In 1921, he, with more than a hundred girls and boys, entered Natick High School. This class,-which was looked down upon by the upperclassmen, as are all Freshman classes,-has become the largest and probably the most celebrated class which has ever graduated from Natick High. Near the head of the list of its famous alumni will be the name of Frank Bishop, for doubtless he will continue in his quite, unassuming manner to approach the height of his ambition. which, we believe, is to be senior partner of Lee, lligginson 8: Company. ' J. Richard came to our class as a graduate J' RICHARD BOWEN of the Bacon School, where he first became interested in the acquiring of knowledge. He is one of those long-legged, happy-go- lucky lads. The only things that worry Dick, are money and workg he loves the money, but hates the work. Dick has always been a popular member of our class, holding many positions on our committees and class offices, as well as being an all- round good scout. We will always remember Dick for his fiashy shirts and trick sweaters. He certainly gave our school a collegiate touch. What Dick will become, we are not prepared to say, but according to present indications, it is highly probable that we will know him in the future as J. Richard Bowen, Butter and Egg King. I guess very few of us need an introduc- DOROTHY BOYLE tion to Dot. She has won fame in several activities. Dot was Secretary of the Commercial Club. She is also known as the girl who so splendidly took the part of Mrs. Barrington, in the Senior play, Hon- or Bright-. I notice that Dot isn't getting thin over it, but to tell you the truth, l really think that she would love to be able to attend Exeter. There'e no need for me to tell you that Dot believes in living up to her motto, Better late than never. , , Charlie, as he is known, is another of the CHARLES BRANAGAN poor mortals who has to run the Marathon every morning to catch the bus from South Natick. In school, Charlie appears to be very quiet, but he has proved that this is not always the case, for he has taken part in two plays representing clubs to which he, belonsg. We all ermember the Dramatic Club sketch, At the Movies, also the French play. Next year will prob- ably see Charles in the Boston School of Pharmacy, and after that we shall prob- ably see a new drug store in South Natick, known as the Branagan Drug Store. We wish him luck and hope he'll always get his prescriptions right. f His initials sound like fireworks, but when BILL BRANSFIELD he isn't as tough as all that. Willie, if we may take the liberty to call him that, comes to us from the city of South Natick. In t.he fall of 1920 he, and about one hundred more of us, clamored at the golden gates of our stately edifice, craving for education. That was four years ago. Now Bill is a lot wiser in more than one way He has learned that he can stay in a show in Boston, for four hours, for a thin dime and get home in time to eat dinner. Well, we sincerely hope that Bill will make his mark in the world. He will, too, even if he has to use a pick and shovel to lo it. We are inclined to believe that he will set the world on fire, if he has enough matches. .
