THE FO-RBIAN William Healy 653 Third Street South Boston Sodality fl, 2, 3, 45 K. B. S. C3, 49 Mission Captain 13, 43 McElroy Vice-President 123 Bapst C35 'Campion Q33 Botolphian Prize Winner 124, 252 Track C31 Hockey Q49 7 Bill, 4'Breeze, Hale Folks-here is the one responsible, the perpetrator of this book. Judge not too harshly. For four ye-ars Bill has been entertaining the class with his interesting bits of literature. During that time he has contributed stories, poems, essays, etc., too numerous to men- tion 5 and -other bits and snatchesv too humorous to mention. A man of moods he can seem to change from a sombre, serious writer of poems and beautiful thoughts to a laughing humorist, with gems of Witticism and satire flowing from his fam-ous pen. Every night we have mar- veled at his speed as he raced madly after his City Point carg We Wonder Why he hurried home to South Boston? Billfs Wit, humor, puns and even his more serious and thoughtful Works have kept us interested on many occasi-ons and we hope he remains with us through the future. But Whatever he tries ive feel sure he will succeed. You who have read this book ca.n realize his abilities and perseveranceg and We know his smile and his desirability. No, Billl we Won't easily forget you.

TI-IE FORBIAN Daniel F. Holland 113 Washington Street South Groveland, Mass. Sodality C41 . K. B. S. C41 Dan, NVolf?' Dan ha.s been with us but a scant half term, so we really don't know him so well as we would like. Coming down from St. James High with 3 brilliant athletic reputation we were naturally a bit awed to have such a famous personage in our class. But We found him to be very modest and quiet. So our awe turned to- genuine- respect and, admiration. For a time we- feared but finally theyreal Lone VVo1f was captured and we found that it wasn't. Daan after all. Dan sports boxing proclivities and he seized Kel as the only available sparring partner. Well, Dan, we hope to see more of you in the years to comeg but if We are not to see you again we wish you the best of luck in your lifels vocation.
