Dorothy Anne Gilligan Middlebury June 7, 1930 Boston, Mass. Except for a two year leave-of ' absence in the eighth and ninth grades, “Dag” has been with us from the very first. She par ' ticipates in many school activities. Her hobby is drawing cartoons, and she admits that she is fascinated by polka dots of all descrip ' tions. Her interest is languages, and in several years we shall probably he seeing “Dag” in the newsreels, successfully realising her ambition to be an international interpreter. “Fighting Littles”, Class Officer one year.

Clyde Foote March 29, 1929 Stockbridge Waltham, Mass Clyde, known to most of us as “Footie”’, started with our class in the first grade. Without him the school plays and operettas would have seemed impossible, for he has been our chief eleC ' trician at all given in the past four years. He works afternoons at the cemetery and is an active member of the “Spooks Club”. The Elizabethen Play House he made for the English department will be appreciated by later classes. Clyde hopes to become a farmer after going to Stockbridge, and we wish him the best of luck in his work. Chief Electrician at School Plays and Operettas Rose Susan Gage October 23, 1929 Burdett Somerville, Mass Rose, the domestic member of our class, joined us in the second grade, and has remained with us from that time. She is very -fond of music and her favorite pastimes are sewing and cooking, which seem to fit in well with her ambition to be happily married. She plans to continue her education at Burdett or go to work after graduation. We are sure that Rose, with her agreeable manner and inter ' esting personality, will find the success she deserves. Charlotte Wheeler Gale August 26, 1929 Wheaton Oakland, Calif. “Lot”, California’s contribution to Weston High, joined us in our sophomore year. Coming to Lincoln in 1943, Charlotte is full of contradictions; she wants to get A ' 4’s (to thwart her teachers) and she likes the West—but not movie-made cowboys. Her ambi¬ tion in life at present is just to go to college, but after that she hopes to return to live in the land of real cowboys.

Harriet Anne Howell May 22, 1930 Bates Newton, Mass. “Harry” is one of these few stalwarts who started in our class in the first grade and has remained with us ever since. She likes all sports, candy, and the Red Sox, and, although she has main¬ tained very high marks, she considers homework her pet peeve. Always noted for her quietness and good nature, Harriet hopes to go to Bates and after that become a secretary or Spanish inter- ' preter or maybe both. Chanticleer staff, Discussion Club I ] Robert Joseph Johnson January 20, 1930 Boston University Waltham, Mass. “Boh” has been with us ever since the first grade, and has been recognized throughout the years as our class comedian. His chief interest in school has been science and he hopes to be an engineer after college. Bob likes to dance, sleep, and enjoy the company of young ladies, although his chief dislike is silly girls.
