22 T HE S A MPLE R WARREN PIERCE General “Sam Fame is food dead men eat—I have no stomach for such meat. Fool hall Manager 1, 2. Sam is the sleepy-looking boy who walks about the school. He has quite i time trying to decide which girl he’d like to keep happy. Right now it looks as though it might he the one from Alstead. JOHN PORTER General John” “ My lore she is a kitten, and my heart's a ball of string. Football 1. 2, 4; Hockey 1, 2, 3; Track 1, 2, 3; Senior Bazaar 3; Treasurer of A. A. 4; ice President of Senior ( lass, Co-eaptain of hockey team. Here is a combination of a swell kid and a good athlete—in fact he excels in most any sport. But his skiing this winter wasn’t all for the exercise he had a very charming companion! In spite of continual competition, John has so far managed to squeeze out on top and we hope his good fortune keeps up. MARGARET RIENDEAU General “ Margaret “ nerer found a companion as companionable as solitude Glee Club 3, 4; Margaret is so quiet that it took several members of the class about the whole year to even find out who she was. But if you speak to her, you’ll find she has a sweet smile with voice to match. JACQUELINE ROBY General “Jackie “Some people get results, others get consequences. Varsity Basketball 2, 3, 1; Co-captain 4; Dramatics 2, 3. Any day you see a laughing group of boys and girls, you won’t have to guess twice who’s in the center Jackie. She seems to be in on any and every joke and funny story. Ask Jackie why she’s attracted to rattly cars-or is i‘t the driver? PATRICIA SANBORN General Patty “ Music is well said to be the speech of angels Interclass Basketball 1. 4; Interclass Baseball I; Octet 2, 3, 4; Glee ( lub 1, 2 ,3, 4; Dramatic Club 3; Property Manager “ Five Characters in Search of a Change. ” If looks and talent are worth anything, Patty ought to go a long way. Her voice is one of the prides of the class. At many of the social functions and contests, the senior class was well represented by Patty’s voice. She is also endowed with an extremely good nature and easy friendliness.

T II E S A M P L E R w21 CHARLOTTE NOYES College Preparatory “Charlie” “ An investment in knowledge always pays the best interest.” Interclass basketball 1; Rand, Orchestra 2, 3, 4; Glee C lub 1, 2; Roman Banquet 3; School Column 3, 4; Burlington Music Festival 3. Charlotte took fifth honor and has certainly proved in all her classes that she deserves it. She’s one of the Latin Department’s prides, even though Miss Wilcox could never get her name straight. JOHN OBVCHOWSKI General Oba “ The man who blushes is not quite a brute” Basketball J. V. 2; Junior Prom 2; Senior Bazaar 3. Nothing can be said about the A. P. when Oba is around. Every once in a while Oba gets the urge to go to Boston. We wonder where he spends his time when he gets there. As if we didn’t know. ESTELLE O’CONNOR General “Topsy “Conversation never sits easier than when mixed with laughter.' Interclass Basketball 4; Glee Club 1; Dramatic Club 3; School Column 3, t; “ Five Characters in search of a Change” 3. Topsy is the quiet (?) girl from the Terrace, maybe it’s because she does such a lot of thinking—about a certain redhead. We hear she applied for training in a Burlington hospital just to be nearer I . . M. loo bad the Army wouldn’t let him stay there. DONALD PIERCE General “ Woman would be more charming if one could fall into her arms without falling into her hands.' Orchestra 3, 4; Band 3, 4; Jazz Band 4. Another one of our boys who left us to join the Navy. Don certainly gave his share of pep to the jazz band by blowing hot licks on his trumpet But then he has other interests in the band, too. STANLEY PIYOWAR College Preparatory “Father” “He's a man of few words, but he keeps repeating them. Football 3, 4; Baseball 3, 4; Junior Prom 3; Senior Hop 8; Roman Ban- quet 3; School Column 3, 4; The future manager of the First National; but if he had his way, he d be managing a bashful miss in this class. But we guess that was and is a dream in vain. Wonder what happened to his ambition to be a priest.

T II E S A M P L E H 23 CORINNE SLATTERY General “Slats” “Hi keeping men off, you keep them on.” Interclass 1, 2; Dramatic Club 3; Senior Bazaar 4; School Column 3. Outside of school and Newberry’s, Corinne seems to make herself scarce. We are told though that she has her share of beausfrom out of town,and with • hat engaging grin and devilish gleam in her eye it is small wonder. IEAN ANN SPICER Commercial “Jean Ann” “Her eyes loir they brink'e, h r dimples how merryi” Varsity Basketball 3, 4; Senior Hop 3, School column 3. Certainly the hike from Gageville every day doesn’t harm Jean Ann’s disposition any. for she has one of the most pleasant smiles we’ve ever seen. The big chair on her porch gets rather lonesome these days, holding one where it used to hold two. jean STACK General “Jean” “ There is nothing more fun than a man.” Varsity Basketball 2, 3, 4; Glee Club 1, 4; Seni r Octet 4; Jazz Band 4; Dramatic Club 2, 3; Senior Bazaar 4: School Column 3, 4. Our talented miss with the nimble fingers, Jean was the mainstay of our new “Jazz Band” this year. Just as she was beginning to interest a young eornhusker from Westminster, she and a tall blonde of this class developed a mutual interest in each other. But what we’re really wondering about is— are your dancing lessons free of charge? SOPHIE STAMBO Commercial “Sophie” “ want to he an angc and with the ange’s stand, .1 crown upon my forehead, a harp within my hand. School Column 3, 4. Sophie is one of the quieter members of the North Walpolites. Her hobby so we’re told, is raising rabbits. Maybe she’s trying to get enough for a fur coat next winter. MARJORIE STEVENS General “Margie” “ Beware of her fair hair for she excels all women in the magic of her locks.” Glee Club 1, 2, 3, 4; Dramatic Club 2, 3; Times 3; Brattleboro Reformer 3 Our lass with the beautiful golden tresses. Nowadays she divides her time between making doll’s dresses for her niece and writing letters since her man left her good care for that of the Navy.
