RICHARD ALAN MURRAY “Dick” started in with us in Kindergarten and left and returned several times before he really settled down to stay in his Sophomore year. His aptitude in English and his interest in good music have been evident. Dick plans to go to Massachusetts State College, and then seek a career in the United States Navy. He gave an excellent portrayal of “Mr. Prescott” in “George Wash¬ ington Slept Here” in his senior year. He has been in the Glee Club for three years; and has been out for foot¬ ball one year. We’ll remember Dick especially for his one true love — the “Whizzer.” FREDERICK JACKSON PERKINS “Freddie” joined our class in the fifth grade and has been doing all sorts of odd jobs to hvlp the class all the way through school. He has always been interested in the shop, and spends most of his time there. He was on the freshman squad in football in 1944. He has helj ed with the scenery and stage property for many school plays. Fred ' s helpful willingness to work should carry him far in the future. page tuvnty-five

DAVID JAMES MARTIN Dave came campaigning into our class in the 6th grade, and he has been a rabid politician ever since. He is un¬ certain of his future plans, but thinks he might major in writing at Northeastern University. ' Afterwards he would like to be an author, or, fittingly enough, a politician. Dave has been on the staff of Chanticleer for two years, one as Joke Editor and the other as a columnist. He went out for football in 1945, and was an active member of the Student Council in his senior year. His boisterous manner livened up the Discussion Club in the junior and senior years. We’re sure his jovial and friendly manner will make him a good politican. ROSEMARIE MORSE “Rosy” started out with us in kindergarten. In the sixth grade she surpassed us all with her beautiful pen¬ manship, while the rest of us were still trying to make a round “O”. Rosy plans to major in teaching at Fram¬ ingham State Teachers College, after which she will be a Penmanship Supervisor or an Occupational Therapist. Rosy has been the circulation manager for the school magazine from 1947—1948, and served on the Gradua¬ tion Committee in our senior year. She was the as¬ sistant director and was the stage manager for “George Washington Slept Here” in the senior year. She has been in the glee club for four years, and has been out for basketball for four years. We are sure that Rosy’s beautiful handwriting will aid in making her a good penmanship supervisor. page twenty-four

JOSEPHINE SUZANNE POLLOCK “Jo” joined us in the seventh grade. Now she is plan¬ ning to take the Nurses’ Training Course at St. Eliza¬ beth’s Hospital at Brighton. After this she will special¬ ize in pediatrics. We shall remember her for her fine work as chairman of the Activities Com.mittee in her senior year; as a very efficient ticker chairman and usher for the school play in 1948; for her singing in the Glee Club in 1946; for her excellence in Latin which won her three certificates, two in the freshman year and one in the sophomore year. We are sure that Jo will go far, for she has always shown an ability to work really hard at anything that is presented to her. DIANA POTTER Although “Di” didn’t join us until the 10th grade, her excellent cookies and cakes soon made her a great favorite. “Di” plans to major in interior decorating in art school, and to take it up as a career afterwards. We shall remember “Di” for her entertaining performances as Cynthia in “Stardust” and as “Rena Leslie” in “George Washington Slept Here”; for her persistent manner as class treasurer in 1948-1949; for contributing her soprano to the operetta for two years, and for her three year stint in the Glee Club, of which she was president in 1949; for the food and thoughts she contributed to the Discussion Club; for her work in hockey in 1948; for her poetry award in the same year ; and finally for her elec¬ tion to the Prom Queen’s court in 1948. “Di’s” won¬ derful cooking and her cheerful personality will make her welcome wherever she goes. page twenty-six
