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.

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.

 24 T II E S A M P L E It BARBARA STOKY College Preparatory “Barb” “ Light or dark, .short or tall, she sets a trap to snare them all.” I pon her arrival last fall. Barb created quite a sensation among the B. F. “he-men . Of late her interest has centered about one lone Junior. For being a newcomer, and incidentally the youngest member of the class. Barb accomplished quite a feat when she captured eighth honor. ROSE SULLIVAN General “Rosie” “ II ith the help of a surgeon, she might yet recover. (dee Club 1, 2; Dramatics 3; Sampler Board 4; School Column 3; Five Characters in Search of a Change 3, “ Antic Spring 4. Rosie’s favorite subject is typing—at least she expended the most energy on it, vocal included. She proved herself a worthy actress. Rosie had her trials and tribulations with a young underclassman too. MARGARET SYLVESTER General “Margaret” I lore traru uil solitude and such society that is quiet, iei.se, and good. School Column 3. Margaret’s ambition is to be a nurse, we hear, and we think she’ll make a good one. She is quiet and intelligent and we think she ought to be able to ha mile any patient. MELVIN THOMAS General “See hoie long and tall he isl “Melrin” Dramatics 3; Senior Bazaar 4; Reformer 3; Commencement Committee 3; Five Characters in Search of a Change 3, Antic Spring 4. hen Melvin left for the Navy the class lost a good actor, for he was al- ways in the midst of any play that came along. Melvin was always the joy of all the study hall teachers with his quiet step down the aisles! VELMA THOMPSON General “Velma” “A irell-brcd silence always at command. (ilee Club 1, 2; Orchestra 1, 2, 3, 4; Band 1, 2, 3, 4; All-state Orchestra 3. There seems to be an abundance of quiet girls in our class this year though a giggle did escape from Velma every so often. Maybe her quiet manner in class is deceiving for she certainly won the admiration of one fellow in the class.
