JOSEPH FERRANTI ( Joe ). March 14, 1922, Weston. In case you haven ' t noticed, Joe ' s favorite pastime is sleeping; and when he ' s awake he likes to bowl. Unknown to us, his suppressed desire is to be the most popular music writer. Is there hidden talent there somewhere? Joe, the humorist of our clas s, has had a leading part in the Operettas of 1 40 and ' 41, and has certainly given the audiences a laugh for their money. JAMES FUNDERBURK ( Jimmy”). Sept. 21, 1923, Hingham. Bothering people and having fun is the favorite pastime of the boy with personality plus. Likes to spend money, have good weather, new cars, pretty girls and Dean ' s ice cream. Enjoys talking to E.R. and certain Irish people--Whew, what a gale that-. Jimmy expects to work next year if he can persuade VW to let him study History in French class. Would like to get married and take my wife around the world like Lindy. His many school activities include: Class President, ' 39 and ' 40; Student Council, ' 37 and ' 41; School Play, ' 40 and ' 41; co-captain of football, ' 4l. LOIS GILLETTE. March 11, 1924, Amherst. That the day is not longer is Lois ' pet peeve, and we can well see why when her activities include operettas, plays, hockey, basketball, cheerleader, team managers, class picture committee and dance committee. She would like to do ballet dancing and have twins. Likes to watch people, and eat oranges and tomatoes. Lois Is our valedictorian also; so besides preparing that, she has been working on the year book. Whether you go to Middlebury or way out to California to college, we know you ' ll succeed in anything you attempt. NANCY GOULD ( Till ). October 31, 1922, Belmont. Heavenly days says Nancy when something surprises her. Dislikes teachers ' pets. Plans to stay at home next year and study voice and the organ. Favorite pastime is eating. If we didn ' t hear Nancy called upon once in a while to give a recitation, we would never know she was around. However, she has many other interests outside school that keep her occupied, such as Scouts, the Conservatory, and Eating. Nancy has been a member of the Glee Club for four years.

JANETTE GRIGGS ( Giggles ). May 16, 1924, Waltham. Likes going to Howard Johnson ' s with the gang, going dancing, sundaes, and rare steaks. Favorite pastime is flirting--watch out boys I Janette dis¬ likes drunkards, conceited boys and having homework, especially over the week-end. There is no doubt but what Giggles will be remembered by her classmates as the happiest person around school and as a whiz of a driver. Janette is undecided about next year, but plans to go to some college and astonish the French teachers with her 90 and 100 averages . Good luck, Griggsie ' . FRANCIS HALL ( Frannie ). February 1, 1923, Needham. Frannie ' s suppressed desire is to meet the right girl. (We think he ' s just fickle.) During his Sophomore and Junior years, Francis took leave of our old Alma Mater and attended Stetson High in Randolph. But he soon came back, much to the delight of his former pals. As a singer he rates among the best, winning top honors in this field in the Senior statistics. Next year Frannie intends to further his education or join the navy. There ' s one in every port, fella . HAROLD HANNEY ( Sonny ). June 25, 1922, Waltham. In all around athletic ability there are few to challenge our Sonny , having been baseball captain for the last two years and an outstanding player in football and basketball. To go to Florida is his suppressed desire. Maybe he will get there as a baseball pro . Sonny ' s pet peeve is History, first period on Monday. From all appearances he has been looking rather depressed lately. Perhaps a consultation with 1940 ' s Happiest at the Lahey Clinic would cheer him up. We ' ll be looking for you on the Sport Page next year. Sonny. VIRGINIA HANSEN ( Glnny ). April 19, 1924, West Medford. Ginny hasn ' t sprouted any wings yet but she hopes to acquire a pair if she can fulfill her suppressed desire of becoming the first woman to be a trans¬ continental air pilot. Her particular likes are: Johnny Long ' s Shanty Town , sports, piano and grape¬ fruit juice, (w hich anyone who went to N.H. with her can tell you). Ginny has been a very valuable member in our class. A few of her activities include: Operetta ' 39, ' 40, ' 4l; Orchestra ' 40, ' 41; School Treasurer ' 4l, Cheerleader in ' 40, and Student Council ' 40, ' 41. Ginny hasn ' t decided which college will be the lucky one; but don ' t forget People may come, and people may go, but one stays in Ginny ' s heart forever.
