Francis De Mouthe - Frank” A sort of forced laugh, a silly giggle, and one is cognizant of his presence. Such is the atmosphere created by this playful and happy-go-lucky fellow. Frank says he is not fascinated by the fair sex—we wonder. Christine Di Fiore Whenever you see Christine, you see a book. Books seem to have a magnetic appeal for this self-contained and placid member of our class. Something of their nature is reflected in her’s and there is little question but what Christine possesses one of the most admirable characters and personalities, in the school. She is like one of her pretty heroines, too, with her wavy hair, her pink cheeks, and extraordinary lashes. You can be our heroine any time, Christine. Intramural sports 2, 3, 4. Maurice Dixon - Sonny One will always find Maurice a willing audience, especially if the subject is horses. Although, for his vocation, Maurice has chosen to be a mortician, we all think he’d do better in the hoss trade. Freshman Minstrel; Committee Work 4. Joseph Albert Eannetta - Putts On the basis that a team’s as strong as its weakest member , Joe stoutly praises his home town, Mont-ville. He declares that the weakest member on the Montville baseball team is the water boy. We have to admit, Joe really is a good beseball Dlayer. Intramural Sports 2, 3, 4; Junior Play; Varsity Baseball 3, 4.

Raymond Davidson - Ray n In one sense Ray is an extremist. This concerns his moods whioh at times are extremely serious and then again, he may be seen supplying excitement and laughter for a group of his classmates. Ray is termed an all around student because he excels in mathematics, sciences, and some sports. Add his personality to this and the result aoquired is a regular fellow . Intramural Sports 1,4; Radio Club 4; Senior Play; Committee Work 4. Edgar Decker Y hir-r---Buzz—z and he's off! Not Lindberg, Just Edgar. One of the most enthusiastic of future air-kings, hi9 presidency of the Aero-Y is the first step toward his wings . He seems quiet to us, but maybe we don’t know him--they tell us he really knows his airplanes, and that'll make a place for him in the future. Good luck, Edgar! Aviation 1, 2. Jennie De Fiore - Jean Y ords are rather inadequate when one tries to describe Jennie but let's try. Three words are very necessary-—action, speed, and results. Where Jennie is, they may all be found, with a lot of fun and rollicking good humor thrown in. From top to toe, she fairly bristles with pep, and an infectious giggle completes the merry whole. An executive position, and a good one must be included in Jennie's horoscope and she certainly deserves it.

DeGelleke - Jack Due to hi9 argumentative nature it's the consensus of the class that John has the makings of a great politician. Although seme teachers have accused him of filibustering during class periods, we believe that John is just aggressive and everyone knows aggressiveness paves the road to success .

Elizabeth Lorraine Eger - Lorraine” Lorraine is one of those happy people quite content v ith their own group, never seeking praise nor recognition but gaining it just the same. We have long admired her serenity and placidness. Attractive, too, this grand combination has made her one Senior girl to whom we can truly point v ith pride. Latin Club, 1; Freshman Minstrel 1; German Club, 2. Gertrude Eissman When we count up our talented classmates, ten years from nov v;e fully expect to find Gertrude ’way up ahead. Why? Because she has what it takes. Personality, musical, talent, good nature, patience—she's bound to make the grade. Here's a hopeful boost from the class, Gertrude.

Lewis Ezzi - Lew Whether it be symphonic music or modern jazz, saxaphone or clarinet, Lew can produce a quality of music that has no parallel in 9.H.S. For physical recreation, Lew has chosen basketball and for the last two years, he has been rated among the best of our basketballers. As we heve lauded him in basketball, we hope to laud him in the future in whatever he undertakes. Orchestra 1, 2, 3, 4; .Band 1, Varsity Basketball 4; Football J£gr. 4; Basketball Squad 3, 4. Jean Farrier Jean Farrier is a smiling, peppy senior. She has the sunniest disposition of our class members. If you catch Jean v ith a scowl we can bet that it is a very rare occasion. Her friendliness and sportsmanship contribute to her popularity. Service Club 4; Assembly program 4; Attendance monitor 4; Committee Work 4; Library staff 4.
