CORNELIUS CONDRICK CONNIE Dance Committee 4, Football 2, 3, 4, Capt.; Basketball 2, 3, 4, Capt. ; Baseball 2. 3, 4. In the unequal pursuit of studies Connie came to school in 1910. At the very outset he fell so far behind as to let his studies gain one lap on him in the race. Then Connie settled down to show that in the atmosphere of a big- ger, better, busier class he could create a mark. And never has anyone suc- ceeded better in his purpose. For Connie has not only succeeded in the way of studies, but has been captain both of football and basketball, a pitcher and fielder on the nine, and has held many offices of the class besides. Everything to which he has turned his hand has been a success. We wish him success in the greater things. HELEN CUNNIFF Dance Committee 4, Operetta 3. Anyone who has hitherto been blessed with a sound digestion had better turn over this page and linger no longer here. For Helen is the bright, particular star of the cooking class. In attempting to describe her to you, the plummet of our imagination cannot sink one-half so far into the well of thought as one of Helen ' s biscuits could into the Atlantic Ocean. Helen has also a side line in the way of reciting history, but only a side line, you know. Her main point is A D ALMON DEANE Vice-President, Class Marshal, Dance Committee 4, Pin Committee 3, Football 2, 8, 4 ; Basketball 2, 3, 4, Capt . Almon has one of those personalities which lead you to understand wherein he so easily graces the vice-president ' s chair. Throughout his four years he has thrived in the admiration of his fel- lows, even though he professes to enjoy his vacations in the dead haunts of Fort Point. For his good work on the football field and basketball court, Deane deserves much credit. [6]

ROGER BURGOYNE Banquet Committee, Ch. 4, Orchestra 4, Year Book 4. It was only under high pressure that the physiognomy of Roger could be brought to a place on this paper. After the first exposure, the photographer changed his cracked lens, injected a high pressure plate of steen pounds into his camera and intimated that he would sue for damages. Thus, the high pressure. But, listen ! Soft strains of sad music ! Roger is a musical man, and he plays the violin. Those glasses, that hair, believe, O credulous reader, that they stand for some- thing. Roger thinks he resembles — Paderwhiskey ! LAWRENCE CAULFIELD PIMP, LARRY Baseball Mascot 2, 3, 4. Speaking about men, let us consider the gentleman whose visage protrudes itself upon this otherwise good looking page. Pimp is without doubt the smallest Senior in existence. If any- one else tried to fill his place in the Senior class, though, he ' d find it a bit difficult. Not in stature, not in power, but in the hearts of his fellow students, is Larry big. We believe he has done what no other boy of his size has done before — and we are proud of him. The Lord bless thee, Larry ! EVERETT CALLAHAN ROOKEY Class Basketball 4. Baseball 4. The Rookey dropped into the Senior class in 1914, and from all accounts of the teachers has been dropping ever since. Every now and then we behold him surrounded by the admirers (of his brother) and discoursing on How to Play Shortstop. Rookey plays short- stop, you know, and the teachers say that when it comes to studies he ' s pretty clever at it. He ' s clever at a good many things, is our Rookey, and attracts attention — of the girls. We hesitate here at enumerating his many conquests of femininity, for this is only a book. But, after all, here ' s luck to you, Cal- lahan ! M

n6rman dizer NORM Class Secretary, Vice- Pres. Union 4, Orchestra 4, De- bate 4. Norman ' s footprints, as he tells us, were heard approaching our august abode in September, 1911. Since that time they have fallen so loudly upon our ears at times, as to attract attention — notably when Norm was elected Class Secretary and when his confident voice dispelled the doubt of debate with Quincy and Brockton. The lure of the filthy lucre could not ensnare our own Norman even when he worked for Georgy Bean. His honesty is sterling, although Clarke does call him Geezer. guileless classmate, she. CATHERINE GALVIN Banquet Committee 4. Modesty and righteous endeavor are traits of Miss Catherine. Although she is not prominent, occasional glances in her direction will reveal the fact that she has a character, and we honestly say, a lovely character of her own. Always kind and cheerful, always industrious in a quiet way, we have found many virtues about her and have yet to find a fault. In every condition and phase of living, striving for the right — a modest VINCENT GORMAN HOPE, VINCE. Baseball 2, 3, 4, Capt; Class Basketball 2, 3, 4; Track 4. Stop, kind reader ! Forbear to con- demn this page because of this counten- ance which you see here Give us a chance ; and Hope is all we want. This fair haired child is no less wonderful because he is captain of the nine. Hope has been varsity second-baseman for three years, and at present is the pilot of the (state ' s champion) nine. Vin- cent is Hope, and we predict that in a few years he will be the hope of some baseball he will surely go up. [6] fast college team. In
