VIRGINIA MUCHA “Ginny” “Ginny” is one of the most jovial and active in our class. Her effervescent laughter and gaiety wins her many friends. She has the art of mixing with any group and is the best friend anyone could ask for. She has a very pleasing personality and her blue eyes and very blonde hair are the envy of everyone. “Ginny” took the commercial course for four years and was always ready and willing to offer assistance to anyone who needed it. She wants to be an airline hostess and we wish her the very best of luck. Secretary 1, S.P.C.A. 2, 3, Scriptus 3, 4, Barretone 4, Volley Ball 3, Glee Club 2, 3, 4. ELIZABETH MURPHY “Moif” If you ever have a lonesome moment, then be sure to make your way straight to Betty. Her friendly smile and quiet manner has made her a pal who adds spice to any occasion. She is very neat in appearance and she always has a smile for all. Betty’s last name being Murphy, she she has had all of us calling her “Moif.” Betty is going into nursing and we all know that she will be successful at it for she has the patience and sweetness that it takes to make a wonderful nurse.

LOUIS PATRACONE “Louie” “Louie” seems to be in many places at the same time. He will always be remembered for three things.

Third: his wonderful portrayal of an Italian dealer in “What a Life.” Barretone Business Manager 4, Baseball Manager 4, Tennis 3, 4, Senior Play 4, Glee Club 1, 2, 3, 4. VIOLA PERSECHINO “Vi” “Vi” has always been the “brain” of our class throughout her four years at Barre High. Her unchal- lenged 96 average on the Honor Roll has been consistent in all her studies. From chemistry to composition writ- ing she has always come up smiling and successful. Activities speak for themselves in regard to Viola’s ambitions and abilities. Viola’s hair (that chic page- ’ooy) is every girl’s envy. She has always been an ardent debater and we know the Debating Club will also miss her. Viola plans to enter the field of nursing next fall and we wish her the best of luck in her forthcoming career.

As one of the “regular fellows” he has a smile and a pleasant word for all. As captain of the basketball team and a member of the baseball team, “Chaz” has been nothing less than sensational. He has driven his men to victory many a time when things looked hopeless. “Chaz’s” drive will aid him in his career in photo- graphy.
