T II E s A M P L E H 13 BARRY FONTAINE College Preparatory “Butch” “Our nerer lose anything by politeness Roman Banquet, .‘1, 4; Junior Prom, 3; Senior Bazaar, 4; School Column, 3, 4. The boy you see staggering around the halls under that load of books is Barry, the most studious and the smartest boy in the senior class. If you don’t believe us, just ask John McAuliffe. FREIDA FOSTER Commercial “Foster“ “Good words cost nothing, but are worth much” Senior Hop, 3. Freida lives on a farm in Rockingham and, what’s more, she spends most of her time there. Probably because it’s so close to Springfield. It’s also a great place to ski. How about it, Freida? EVELYN GALE General “Erie” “Beauty opens locked doors Without “Evie” we don’t think Mr. Osborn’s absence slips would ever have reached the office. “Evie” doesn’t seem to have much interest in B. F. We hear she’s the perfect home type in spite of the fact that she was voted the best looking girl in our class. EMILY GORHAM Commercial “Emily “Being polite never lost a friend” Emily was voted the most modest girl in the senior class and rightly so. She spends most of her time at the Manor but this doesn’t seem to interfere with her school work. Keep up the good work, Emily. MARY HAGGINS General “Flash “Basketball is her forte” Interclass Basketball 1; Varsity Basketball, I, 2, 3, 4; Captain, 4; Glee Club, 1; President of Girl’s Sport Club, 4. “Flash” attained the honors of the Best Girl Athlete and Best Sport, a combination which is the best and unsurpassable. On the basketball Hoor she showed us this was no lie. Mary!, why didn’t you tell us about your Springfield acquaintance (s?) ? We wouldn’t tell.

12 THE SAMP L E R KATHERINE DOWLIN Commercial “Kay” “My heart's irith my diamond' Inter class Basketball, 2, 3; Glee Club, 2, 3, 4; Spotlight Club, 2, 3. Although “ Kay” lives ’way out in (iageville we see her often in old B. F. We hear she keeps a schedule for studying so that nothing will inter- fere with her special nights. Kay is one person in our class who has her future all settled. PAUL DOWLING General “Nig “ I come to school when there's nothing else to do ” Spotlight Club, 4; Senior Hop, 2; Junior Prom, 3; “Sleeping Dogs,” 4. Honest, “Nig,” how did you manage to sk p school so often and yet keep up your good marks? You’ve proved to us that, although you look sleepy, you’re really not. MURIEL EDWARDS General “Midge” “One of those quiet girls' Interclass basketball, 1, 2, 3. Perhaps “Midge’s” last name was part of a prophecy. Anyway a certain lad named “Eddie” spends a great deal of his time with her. Well, we all hope that you complete your ambition. ELIZABETH FARRELL General “Betty” “Maidens should he mild and meek, swift to hear and slow to speak” (ilee Club, 1, 2. “Betty” comes from V. A., er—we mean Saxtons River. Around B. F. she’s pretty quiet, but we hear she cuts quite a figure on the skating rink. HUBERT FITZGERALD General “Hugo” “It takes two to make a bargain?” Interclass basketball, 3; Baseball, 3; Dramatic Club, 3, 4; Junior Prom, 3; Senior Hop, 3; Senior Bazaar, 4; “Circumstances Alter Cases,” 4. “Hugo” hails from North Walpole and we mean hails. Wherever any- thing is happening, that’s where you’ll find him. We think Mr. Cantwell start- ed boxing in gym for “Hugo’s” sake. He certainly needs a few lessons.

14 T II E S A M P I, E R DANIEL HIGGINS (ieneral “Dan” “I'm learning a lot but school interferes” Hockey, 2, 3, 4; Senior Bazaar, 4. Dan, during I he long hard winter, was the main sustainer of the hockey team and Mr. Holder. By the way, Dan, what do the Freshman Girls have that the Senior Girls lack? HICHARI) HOOPER College Preparatory “ Hooper dink” “Am I a man or a mouse?” (ilee Club, 3; School column, 3, 4; Viennesse Serenade, 3. Richard is our “mad scientist” with experiments at home and at school. By those annual vocabulary tests he certainly proved that he was a master of words. JEAN HOUGHTON General “Jean’ “.1 silent, shy, peace loving girl” Spotlight Club, 4; School Column, 4. Jean is that quiet girl with the dark hair, in case you didn’t notice her. She is a staid believer in the theory that the time to howl was outside school. EDWARD JANCEWICZ General “Eddie” “He is so good that none can be a better man (he thinks)” “Circumstantial Evidence,” 4; “Heart Trouble,” 4; “Circumstances Alter Cases, “ 4; Dramatics Club, 3, 4; Junior Prom, 3; School Column, 3. “Eddie” is the sheik of the class of 44. Although he is a very suave looking gent, he can make plenty of noise. He and his cohorts put any room they are in in an uproar. HELEN Jl RKOIC General “Helen” “One of the happy souls” (ilee Club, i; Senior Hop, 3; Senior Bazaar, 4. If you ever want to hear a joke—go to Helen. We know from experience that she has quite a repertoire. You better hurry tho—for “the kids” take up most of her time.
