THE FORBIAN Francis L. Kennedy 31 Lyon Street Dorchester Sodality Cl, 2, 3, 47 - K. B. S. C3, 41 Orchestra 13, 45 Kreisler, HKen I If ever this fellow awa.kes to- his responsibilities he will become a' good student. Oh yes? He has been slipping latelyg actually went under 95 in some subject, we donit remember which, if any. For he is John Homer himself and he knows more about Catiline tha.n did our friend Cicero. And then his fiddle! What 21 haunting melody he played! The High School Orchestra. quickly signed him up. A b-oy of facetious wit and brilliant satire he was as he admits always stringing someone. And no one ever knew it, he was so clever at it. He was a demon at skirting the ends in footballg and broke up many a baseball game with timely clouts. So we have heard! But all joking aside Frank is a real pal-we really enjoy his company 5 he has been a joy in our years 'of high school life. VVe feel sure that we are going to miss himg but- whoever he joins later in life will certainly be gaining a loyal comrade and friend.

At any rate he mixed right in with us for he is natur'al1y a true comrade 5 and now he hears the stamp of a loyal member of 4 B. Paul is a brilliant student and a pitcher With the goods. He knows the parts of more Greek verbs than any restaurant,owner in the city. Or so it seems. His pitching form was like a beautiful poem-so rhythmic- every move a picture, every picture tells gi story. He is Arthur's press agent. He was sick for a while but came back strong. WVatch him at-Holy Cross-We predict a brilliant future for him, in the classroom, on the field of sport and in friendly circles. The class is proud of you, Paul. if, ,mm ,.,,. . W A , . Ht

THE FORBIAN Charles La France 461 Columbia Road Dorchester S-odality 145 K. B. S. Q43 Class Beadle C45 Dramatics C43 Bapst Q43 Kid Magnavox from K. D. K. A., Pittsburg, blew intoiour midst like one of his fair cit.y's smoke clouds. Before tl1e dust had cleared from his eyes he found himself a 11l91'llb9'I' of the famed 4B. He promptly set out to explain the Why and wherefore of it all to the class. And what a roar issues from that dimuntive form of his. Shrieking shrapnel-roaring Etna-a, cage full of Bengal tigers would all sound like a. 11lOf-11QT',S crooning lullaby when Charlie gets into action. Roger, as he is frequently addressed, much to his own dis- gust, though a. late arrival, nevertheless immediately entered the schol- astic activities. The Bapst Society cringed at the thunder of his powerful voice, the dramatic society paid homage to his ability as a Thespian. If ever you should see a green streak burning up the Dorchester roads, seemingly without a. driver, it is -only the sporty Chandler piloted by that speed demon, Charlie, our boy. Be that as it may we will always miss the cheerful, if loud voice, of our little friend from Pittsburgh, Charles Roger LaFrance, tl1a.nk you.
