ARTHUR J. HIGGINS “BUD” “No one knows what he ran do ’till he tries. Quiet, good-natured, reliable, and loyal describes “Bud” to perfection. Have you ever seen Boonton play on any field of sport and noticed that “Bud” was absent? Never. He is a staunch supporter of all our athletics and a good student, besides. He delights to give pointers on any game: “Bud” can tell you without pausing to think it over all the names of the famous players in any sport in any year. Inter-class Football, 6; Inter-class Basketball, 1, 4; Inter-class Track, 3; Member of the Year Book Staff, 4; Manager of Baseball, 4; President, Hi-Y, 4. VERA KALECHITZ “.In elegant sufficiency, content. Retirement, rural quiet, friendship, books. Ease and alternate labour, useful life, Progressive virtue, and approving Heaven!” Vera is just that, quiet and unassuming, yet pleasant, jolly and gay. Although her four years at Boonton High School have not been unusual, we feel that we will miss her peace and calm when we are parted. VIVIAN KANOUSE “VIV” “Sweet, grave aspect. Distance has been no hindrance to Vivian in gaining her education. In addition to her academic course she has helped considerably in disposing of the office tasks. Courtesy and consideration of others are two of her sterling qualities. She is a staunch upholder of the Senior scholastic record. Office Force, 4.

KATHERINE IIAVISER “KAY” “A little work, a little play. To keep us going day by day.” Here’s “Kay,” a girl who does things just a bit differently. She is quiet and somewhat retiring, but very individual. “Kay” may take her time about doing things, yet accomplishes what she sets out to do. She has a decided artistic talent and has helped us out many times with her posters. Year Book, 4; Latin Club, 4. DOROTHY HEADLEY “DOT” “Fine art is that in which the hand, the head, and the heart go together.” That’s “Dot.” Dorothy was with us during her Freshman and Sophomore years, but then she left us and went to Montclair. Boonton High called her back and now she is here to graduate with us. Her drawings have ranked her among the foremost artists of the school. Perseverance, coupled with her ability, will attain success for her. However, art is not her only interest. She is devoted to Girl Scouting as her numerous badges indicate. Art Club, 1; Inter-class Basketball, 4; Year Book Staff, 4. FRANK HEADLEY “RUNT” “Good health and good sense are two of life’s greatest blessings.” The man without a necktie! However, we know he has one saved for those rare occasions when the photographer barks “Smile”! Though “Runt” is the youngest in our class, he has always ranked among the highest in scholarship. Those who know Frank intimately appreciate his subtle humor and witty remarks. He is an enthusiastic devotee of our national pastime—baseball. Year Book Staff, 4.

ROGER KINGSLAND “ROG” “Life is not life at all without delight.” Whenever there is any business enterprise on hand, “Rog” can be depended upon to make a good job of it. His greatest successes in this line were as business managers of the Year Book and Wampus. “Rog” has taken a keen interest in the activities of both the class and school. He played the part of Wallie Banks in “Seventeen,” and, as usual, made a success of it. Wampus Business Manager, 4; Year Book Business Manager, 4; Track Manager, 4; Senior Play; President of Ushers’ Club; Assistant Track Manager, 3; Wearer of B. MARY KOVAL “MARE” “As night the befriending stars best showes So lives obscure the starriest souls disclose.” Mary is our pal and friend; her happy smile greets us daily. She is sympathetic and loyal, though these two characteristics are often hidden by her quietness. We know her for her interest in all things and for her willingness to serve. She is always reliable, with a keen delight in fun and fair play. VICTOR KOWALEWSKI “SHIEK” “I build my soul a hardy pleasure house If'herein at ease for aye to dwell.” Those who remember little Victor, of Freshman days, will understand what the nickname means. We will always think of him as having a smile on his countenance. Ecce! our youthful actor, Willie, who “liked apple-sauce in its place.” Who says he wasn’t known about our loftv halls? Behold! Inter-class Basketball, 2, 4; Inter-class Football, 1, 4; Spanish Club, 2, 3; President, Spanish Club, 4; Oratorical Club, 3; Senior Play, 4; Glee Club, 1, 2.
