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.

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.

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.

T H|E S A M V L E R 15 DANIEL KEEFE General Danny Speaking is silver, silence is golden Track, Interclass llaskethall, i J. . Basketball, 8. “Danny” is one of that very limited number of quiet fellows in our class. Sometimes we wonder if he really is as quiet as he seems. Perhaps it’s because he finds Walpole more interesting. RALPH KEMP General “Wimpy” A cheerful grin trill let you in Football, 1, 2, 8 4; Hockey, 8, 4; Baseball 1; Track, 8. Wimpy” is one of the best nature ! fellows this school ever had. He can take it in football and hockey too. But the senior girls would like to know what’s wrong with them. “Wimpy” avoids all his feminine classmates for freshmen worshippers, and they aren’t boys. FRANK KIMBALL General “Slat” I come to school just to get the general idea of things Baseball, 8. Frank is one of those pet peeves of the teachers. He loves to sleep and when he’s not sleeping, he’s fooling. Life is no struggle for him. But don’t get the wrong idea, he can work when he wants to.
