10 THE SAMPLER WILLIAM CYRS General BiUy “ Let's talk of yrares, oj worms and epitaphs Hand, 1; Spotlight Club, 2, 4; Junior Prom, 3; “Nobody Sleeps,’ 4; “The Kid Makes I’p His Mind,” 4. The mad scientist and biologist, of the class! Darwin’s “Theory of Kvolution” has nothing on Hilly’s “Theory on How to Feed Haby Robins.” His theory—Feed ’Em Peaches and Kill Em—and he ought to know, he tried it. SHIRLEY DOWLING General “Shiri “ SI any friends in general; one in special Interclass Hasketball, 3, 4; School Column, 3; Costumes Play Night, 4. A red-headed spitfire who is never lacking a snappy comeback. Where there’s good skating ice, there’s Shirley—and where there’s Charlestown, there she is again. HEVERLY FENNO Commercial “Bee'’ “ Hang sorrow! Care trill kill a cat, and therefore let's be merry (ilee Club, 1, 2, 3, 4; Spotlight Club, 2: Junior Prom, 3. Rev should be an experienced penman by the time Gil comes back. She certainly writes enough letters. Must be the new air-mail rates don’t deter her, for we still find them cluttering up her desk. ERNEST FRENETTE General Ernie Silence best speaks the mind Senior Razaar, 4. The quiet ? boy from the Terrace, but to look at him in English or socio- logy class one wouldn’t think so. Ernie is expecting a promotion in the lailroad business, next to Kissell, of course. JEAN GAY Commercial Jean Man has his trill—but woman has her way Glee Club, 1, 2; Social Science Club, 1; Spotlight Club, 1, 2; Senior Hop, 3; Manager of Girls Hasketball Team, 3, 4. The (iageville belle who has started flutters in two hearts this year. There isn’t any man-shortage as far as Jean is concerned for she had the problem, or should we say privilege, of choosing between the two. She finally chose the boy from this side of the river but North Walpole gave Gray so quite a run for his money. Some fun.

THE SAMPLER 9 ETHEL CH ISA MORE Commercial “Peanut Happy am I, from rare I'm free! Why aren't they all contented like me? Spotlight Club, 4. Whenever there is noise or confusion in study hall. Mr. Osborn always jumps to conclusions, doesn’t he -of course, it’s never you, is it. Peanuts? Mr. Olbrych will have to find a Junior who can take your place in those argu- ments next year.

The bookworm of the class, yet he always finds time to keep a certain Kuril Hattin belle well entertained. Those brilliant ideas and arguments of his kept Miss Brown going. Larry knows all the answers, and they’re always the best. MARIE CLARK General “Marie' “ All women are ambitious—natura!'y The patrons of the Rockingham Theater get double their money's worth They get the movie plus that charming smile of the ticket seller. She doesn t mind when there are only a few people going to the movies because she can al- ways spend her spare time writing to Johnny! FRANCIS COFFEY General Coke' Tiro human lores make one divine Football, 8, 4; Baseball, 8, 4. 'I'he boy who doesn’t seem to be aware of the fact that shoes are rationed If he is, the distance between North Walpole and Atkinson Street doesn't seem to slacken his pace. He showed Bellows Falls what football really was as played by a boy from over the River. ROSE MARY CRAY General Tony' A fellow feeling makes one wondrous kind Interclass Basketball, 4; Glee Club, 1, 4, 8; Dramatics. 4, 8, 4; Junior Prom, 8; Senior Bazaar, 4; “Georgie Porgie,” 4: “Elmer,” 8. There’s always a question of “spare time” in Tony’s m il 1. Not what to do with it. but where to find it. Another girl who holds quite an interest in the Navy, she helps keep the mail moving. More power to you, Tony.

The boy who came over from North Walpole with only one thought in mind, to “stay away from the women. A certain girl seems to have changed his mind, however. Rico fills a pretty important position on the baseball field and also in the honor field. Congratulations, Rico! BEATRICE GUPTILL General Rea “Silence more musical than any song Senior Hop, 3; School Column, 3. Rea’s quiet, gentle manner will be very soothing to her patients.

The latter seems to have preference now. He must be a smart boy to pass the V-12 test.
