Canal Currents - 1951 Eighteen HENRY PHILBRICK General Course June 20, 1932 Football 4. One of the quieter persons in the class, Henry is very dignified (when the teacher is looking) — he enjoys read- ing and has plans of becoming a farmer in the future — Henry has a peculiar weakness for English — we can’t imagine why! Beware the jury of a patient man MONICA MARY ROBBINS Commercial Course December 6, 1933 Mixed Chorus 2, 3; Girls’ Chorus 2, 3; Basketball 2, 3, 4; Hockey 2; Archery 2; Tennis 2, 3; Junior Prom Committee 3. Happy-go-lucky with her beautiful smile is our Mon- ica — the tallest of the three musketeers ”, she works part- time at Daley’s Pharmacy in B. B. ( where she flashes that smile at the fellows from Otis). In the future Monica plans to be a nurse — we’re positive she ' ll make a swell one! The whole world smiles upon me STUART BEALE SMALL General Course August 1, 1932 Vice-President 3; Class President 4; Basketball (man- ager) 3; Football 1, 2, 3, 4; (Chairman) Junior Prom 3. With his personality and dependability, Stuie is one of the best-liked members of the class — His sportsmanship is hard to beat and his opinions of the opposite sex are kept to himself — Stuie expects to join the Navy and see the world after graduation. Men of few words are the best men JOSEPH F. SORENTI General Course April 17, 1932 Basketball 1, 2, 3, 4; Football 1, 2, 3, 4; Baseball 1, 2, 3, Co-captain 4; Junior Prom Committee 3. The class muscle man”, Joe is one of the best athletes around these parts — His sense of humor makes him popular with all the fellows (and not so unpopular with the girls). Joe seems to like history — thinks Mr. Campbell’s talks on the presidents — (especially Lincoln) make school worth- while. I have not yet begun to fight”

Francis is a hard-working member of the class — He manages to find time to help out in all class activities, however, and is one of our best salesmen — His sense of humor is rare and some of the hamburg he cooks at the Buzzards Bay Newsstand is even rarer.

A still and quiet conscience ” FLOYD RICHMOND OAKLEY Commercial Course January 29, 1934 Art 1. Rich is the nature boy” of the class — his favorite pas- time being hunting and fishing. He is an expert in these lines although at times he lets his gaze turn to other lines ( ? ) He can be found with Bill Harrison or Stan Gibbs around school.

Our traveling classmate, Barry leaves us but always comes back — Maybe Bourne High’s got something that R. I. hasn’t? Barry plans to go to college after graduation — with his personality and outlook on life, he’ll be an asset to any campus. I shall laugh myself to death’’
