Marion Burkhardt-”Burky” Looking over suoh a varied list of activities, we don’t know Just what to say about Marion----her talent ap- pears to run in all directions. She isn’t the least bit frightening, though, and is one of the friendliest and most approachable of our classmates. We know those who work with her in the future will appreciate her as we have• Committee Y ork 1, 2, 3, 4; Intramural Sports 1, 2; Chorus 2, 3, 4; Library Staff 3, 4; V ampus Staff 4; Senior Play 4; French Club 4; Yearbook Staff 4; National Honor Society 4. Georgianna Busse Here is the smallest member of our best known trio; where you see the Berhman sisters, you can usually find Georgianna. Despite that diminutiveness, she has gone in for sports in a big way and ability conquered stature—she’s a star. Lots of fun to know and possessing those rollioking goggles which sets everyone else off, she has added a lot of spice to school activities. We think she’s one in a million”. Wampus 4; Intramural Sports 1, 4; Conmittee Work 4. Dolores Carey - ”Dottie” Dot tie is one of the most outstanding and popular girls of the senior class. She is very actiye in girls’ sports. A keen sense of humor and her helpfulness has made for her many friends. In the senior play, she played her part well and we are proud of her. Her committee work has helped to make many of our class projects successful.

Randall Catching - ”Randy” He entered our school as a junior, and in two years distinguished himself in studies and sports. In fact, it is rumored thet Einstein came to the U.S. to get our Randy’s” views on relativity and the fifth dimension. And say did you see him as ”George McIntyre” in our Senior Play? Not bad--------not half bad! By the way, watch him—he will 3ell you anything, if he wants to--he almost sold us California. Randy , we wish you all the luck in the world!

Helen Blanchard - Buddy Everybody knows our Buddy, one of the outstanding members of our class. A high scholastic standing and a keen personality gives us Buddy. Her eagerness to help the class in its activities has added to its success. Where she finds time for all her work, la a question which would probably, give ua her key-word to success.

Alma Boccofogli Quiet? Not a bit, once you know her. In fact. Alma has one of the most active yens for excitement in or around Boonton High. She plans to be a doctor and a good one, too. Judging from her placid disposition, her efficiency and capability in all her school duties, we would all trust ourselves to her, unworried. We’re all for her.

No, this isn’t a southerner nor a westerner greeting you,but Just Ed Bolcar and his natural drawl. For Ed , eats come second to sports and we believe he’d sacrifice a meal for a game of basketball or baseball any day (or would he?We ask you.)

David Brocker - Dave The fact that appearances are deceiving is evidenced by Dave who, with his hunter’s and trapper’s clothes, his air of reckless abandon, and his spirit of revolt would lead one to believe that he is the Peck’s Bad Boy of the Senior Class. In spite of these seemingly roguish characteristics, Dave is possessed of the manners boulevardier, sincerity, of a companionship, and a high code of honor.

Albert Charette - Al WA1 is quite a versatile Senior. No matter what he undertakes, he does well. Be it in the orchestra or the art room, or Just a service, it is done well. His motto is, Where there 8 a will, there's a way, and Al usually finds a way. reshman Minstrel 1; Intramural Sports 2; Football Squad 3; Track Squad 3; Service Club 3, 4; Year Book Staff 4; Orchestra 4; Art Editor— Wampus 4. Philip Chiaverini - Philly If it's sports, ask Philly — he knows. He seems to have acquired an endless source of information on snorts and is willing to argue with anyone on this subject. Philly says that going to school has developed two bad habits for him—getting up before 8:00 A.M. and running to school without any breakfast.

Stella Christakos Although seldom seen or heard outside of class, Stella has grown quite famous for that curly, black hair which she sports so unobtrusively before the less fortunate. Many of us know out slightly this silent Lincoln Parker, but even slight acquaintance reveals her sincerity and wholesomeness. Too bad our knowledge of her is so scant, for v e know from the little we have seen what a dandy person she is. Elin Christopherson Everybody likes Elin. Little and cute, with lovely light brown hair, and a simply gorgeous smile, she has spent four placid years in our midst. Although she is quiet, she has always been one of the outstanding members of our class, and you must not forget, still water runs deep. Latin Club 1, 2; Intramural Sport 1, 2, 3, 4; Usher 4.
