T II E S A M P L E K 9 WHO’S KATHERINE ANDOSCA WHO General Kay “Hang sorrow, care will hill a cat—and therefore let's be merry” Thanksgiving Ball, 4; Junior Prom, 3; Senior Hop, 3; Home Kc. Club Presi- dent 4; Hi-Schooler, 3; Business Manager “Guess Again” 4. Kay's the gal who laughingly replies to that fascinating nickname Hips.” How did she get it? Ask her! Remind her of the day in grade school that she drowned a fly in the ink well, then spent the rest of the day crying her heart out because the teacher accused her of killing a poor defenseless insect! Besides being one of the best sports in the class, Kay is also one of the most loyal persons in B. F. H. S. JEANNE ANGELL General “ Jeannie “ Another flood of words, a very torrent!' Basketball 4; Interclass Basketball, 4; Band, 1; Spotlight Club, 4; Jr. Prom 3; Senior Hop, 3; Thanksgiving Ball, 4; Hi-Schooler. 3; Sampler Typist, 4; “Dweller in the Darkness,” 4; “Guess Again, 4; - Monitor, 4” Here’s to the girl who broke their hearts from Vermont to Oregon but flnallv decided to settle down in Bellows Falls. Mrs. Jones found great potentialities in Ginger this year. As for stopping the show when “Guess Again” is mentioned, we don’t talk about that. That Gay Nineties bathing suit was a masterpiece of comedy. Ask her to tell you about the day a good percentage of the Physics Class covered the three flights of stairs pretty thoroughly—four times each way to be exact! The drummer? “Oh gollv,” sighs Jeannie, “He’s getting to be a habit!” DOROTHY BARNES Commercial “Dottic' “Her ways are ways of pleasantness and all her paths of peace” Thanksgiving Ball, 4; Junior Music Committee, 3; Hi-Schooler, 3; Class Vice President, 4. “ Proud” is the word that sums up our feeling for Dot. How she finds time for all the things she does is a secret, but the duties of vice president, homework and working don’t leave much time to waste. Correspondence with the Army, she informs us, is not a task, it’s a pleasure! Dottie will undoubted- ly succeed in everything she attempts, just as she has succeeded in winning our hearts from the very beginning with her charming personality. ANAISE BLANCHARD Commercial “Nan” “Of gentle soul, to human race a friend'' Interclass Basketball, 3, 4; Basketball, 3, 4; Band and Orchestra, 1, 2, 3, 4; Junior Prom, 3; Senior Hop, 3; Sampler Typist, 4.' Anaise, who has a cheerful and pleasant smile for everyone, is noted for her rug cutting. Her private ambition is to conduct a dancing school, in the best interests of the fleet, you understand. That one-man-.Navy, we were promptly informed, is all that Van Johnson is, and more! Anaise is one of Mr. Bush’s staunch supporters, and another member of the commercial department who unobtrusively walked off with an honor.

Then we think that the end of this perfect year Means we must all depart. From the fine old school that we hold so dear And the dear friends who have to part. Well, this is the end of the perfect year— That is only the beginning, too, And it leaves these years to remain with us And our teachers so kind and true. For mem’ry has painted this perfect year With purple that will never fade And we find at the end of this perfect year The love of the friends we’ve made. Jacquelixe Parker

10 THE SAMPLER MARY CROTTY Classical “CrouT “She w pretty to walk with and witty to talk with and pleasant too, to think on” Interclass basketball, 1; coach 4; Basketball, 2, 3, 4; Softball, 3, 4; Sports Club Representative, J; Glee Club, 1; Dramatics, 2, 3, 4; Latin Club, 4; Freshman Reception, 4; Assemblies, 3, 4; Junior Ring Committee, 3; Hi- Schooler Editor-in-chief, 3; Senior Sampler Editor-in-chief, 4; “Who Says Can't,” 1; Monitor, 4; Girls’ State, 3; Cheer leading 2, 3, 4; Co-captain, 4. That smile! It certainly has gotten her places—or should we say things? Whether it may be home or away, she always uses it to its best advantages. Never mind, Mary, we’re just jealous. Mary has been a great help to Mrs. Jones on the basketball team and outstanding as a cheer leader. She has shown ability as a newspaper woman being Editor-in-chief of Hi-Schooler in her Junior year,and Editor-in-chief of the Sampler. And as an actress, she was the only girl who rated “practically a proposal” right there on the stage. Best of luck in your college career, Mary! CARL DAMORE General “ D amore” “ My way is to begin with the beginning ” Junior Music Committee, 3, 4; Hi-Schooler, 3; Junior Prom, 3; Senior Bazaar, 3; Baseball, 4. The “mad scientist” who hailed from North Walpole in his sophomore year. In the back of study hall he doesn’t seem to be making too much noise but we have come to the conclusion that he may be the cause of all Mr. Os- born’s worries. Or what is that mocking grin in favor of, Carl? With Butch in front of him there isn’t much else he can do! CLAUDE DEXTER General “Lover” “ When I said I should die a bachelor, I did not think I should live till I were married” Basketball, 1, 2, 3, 4; Baseball, 1, 2, 3, 4; Football, 4; Hi-Schooler, 3. The boy who was chosen Best Athlete has certainly proved that he de- serves it. He was both Captain of the basketball team and chosen on the All- State Football Team. Lover has set many a girl’s heart afluttering, but his interest now centers around only one Junior girl. You can often see Lover with gas coupons but no car! He gets by though!! We think you’ll make a swell coach, I over, but don’t let anything interfere with your plans. JEANNETTE ENO Commercial “ Blondie” “ The silent girl is the best to listen to” School Column, 3. We never hear very much from Jeannette around school, but we under- stand that with her winsome ways and smile she has made quite a hit with the Navy. She must be living up to that old saying, “Still water runs deep.” By the way, what ever became of Wilmington?
