For he certainly is one big boy! Captain of the hockey team, being one of the best defense nien in high school circles and a. mighty bulwark on the football tGil1ll, he can validly lay claim to' being one of the city's best athletes. lVith his mighty build he is a true college pros- pect. And like all big men Ed is quiet and popular. Such a sweet voice as his sounds sweet and strange as compared with Mul's stac- cato bark. Ed has a propensity for huri-yingg l1e is never seen but on the rung we hear he has 110t been tardy yet for school. 'Though with us less than a year he is 1111 honored and somewhat feared meni- ber -of our, as we have said before, illustrious class. Keep smiling, Ed-and keep moving. .

Give your feet a treat-keep o11 tl1e level with Sl12lllHll311,S shoes! VVe predict Joe will be a successful salesman. He could talk a pair of high-heeled shoes onto an Italian laborer. J. Patrick, besides being one of our best a11d noisiest scholars, is a fanlous athlete, basketball and baseball being his favorite sports. He was a letter-111an in each. But J oe's greatest claim to distinction is his philosopllical, laughing outlook on life. His whinlsical smile coupled with 11is true Jewish wit made even serious Cav smile. For Joe is a real 11llIll0I'lSlZ and what they call a f'wise-cracker. We learned from him that Roxbury is the greatest place in tl1e world. VVe don't know what course of life Shanny is con' templating followingg but we know that wherever he goes or whatever he does, he will never want for friends and fortune. WVe wish you luck, Joe, as you prepare to leave us.

Q3, 41 McElroy f2J Class Vice-President C19 Denny, Dense i'Shag7' One day a terrible roar was heard in the school. However, that wasn't Dennyg for he is one of the quietest fellows we have ever known. VVitl1 l1is quiet air, gentle demeanor and eternal Slllile he ingratiated his way into our hearts. Denny himself was quiet- but his Chi-istnxas socks! They were a cross between an Arabian sunset and a bad ease of the delirium treinens. Denny is a good student toog we can still hearken back to our earliest algebra days when he astounded and amazed us. He has been at all times one of these quiet fellows doing a lot and saying a littleg a hard, willing worker, a classmate with initiative. Always' popular with the boys he has too at tilnes evinced propensities towards other personages. His stay with us has been happyg he has 1113119 many others. happy, toog and that is just why we will miss l1i1n. Keep smiling Dinnyg you have Inade nlany friends here and arined with that magic pass- word you should eonquer more worlds in the life beyond.
