CLASSES BEATRICE VINTON FITTS 64 Bigelow Street, Quincy. Glee Club 1, 2, 3, 4. Choir 1, 2, 3, 4. Orchestra 1, 2, 3, 4. Director 3, Sec. 4. W. A. A. 1, 2, 3. Scouts 1, 2, 3. Culture Fund Committee 1, 2. Topics of the Day Club 3. Normal Offering Board 4. Through worlds and races and terms and times, Saw musical order and pairing rhymes. Beatrice has always reminded us of one of two things: the bass viol, or her artistic ability as shown in the decorations of the Junior social. Because of her experience in the field of music, we expect to find Bea waving her baton somewhere in Quincy or thereabouts. DORIS BLACKSTONE CLIDDEN 4 Farm Street, South Weymouth. Day Stu- dent Council 3. A great deal of talent is lost in this world for the want of a little courage. An ardent worker in church organizations, a movie addict, and an industrious stamp collector are all representative of the many-sided Doris. You didn ' t believe it, did you? Just one more proof that appearances are often deceiving, for quiet girls are not always unresponsive, and unassuming classmates are seldom inactive. RUTH VERNA GLIDDEN Plymouth Street, North Middleboro. Student Council 1, 2, 3, 4. Class Rep. 1, 2, 3, 4. Vice- Pres. of class 1, 2, 3, 4. She walks in beauty, like the night Of cloudless climes and starry skies. Ruth ' s name spells A-R-T to our minds. All her achieve- ments are colored by her vivid and joyous personality and her appreciative artistry. Decoration committees, posters, school seals, Christmas cards — all have felt the influence of her brush. 23

1933 ALPHA VERDA FLORENCE DUNN Irving Street, Hingham. Dormitory Council 1, 2, 4. Sec.-Treas. of Normal Hall 2. Campus Comment 2, 3. Normal Offering 3, 4, Asst. Editor 4. Glee Club 1, 2, 3, 4. Library Club 2, 3, 4, Pres. 4. Choir 1, 2, 3, 4. W. A. A. 1, 2, 3, 4= She walks in beauty. Verda ' s loveliness wears well, because it is not a veneer; but kindness in her heart, a lantern of service in her hand, laughter on her lips. MARY ELIZABETH DYER 21 Sheridan Street, Taunton. W. A. A. 1, 2, 4. Normal Offering 1, 4. Day Student Council 1. Hobby Club 3. It ' s nice to be natural, When it ' s natural to be nice. Perfection of achievement is what Mary strives for and what she usually succeeds in getting. But don ' t mistake us, she is not one of those tiresome individuals who are always right. Ability, plus the faculty of not putting it on ex- hibition , is the secret of Mary ' s naturalness. DOROTHY ELLEN FISH 43 Houston Avenue, Milton. W. A. A. 1, 2, 3. Baseball 1, Bowling 2, Soccer 3. With the merriest twinkle in her eye And the gentlest manner in her heart. A great lover of the out-of-doors is Dot as is shown by her four years ' activities. Whether it be on the field or in the classroom, hers is the sporting attitude — playing for the love of playing, working for the love of working. Her twinkling eyes invite one to know her, and her kindly manner compels one to love her. Hers is the well-rounded personality which calls for and demands a host of friends. 22

1933 ALPHA RUTH MADELINE GREGORY Royalston Road, North Winchendon. Glee Club 1, 2, 3, 4. W. A. A. 1, 2, 3, 4, Soccer 3. Scouts 1. Choir 1, 2, 3, 4. Whose armor is her honest thought, And simple truth her utmost skill. The problems of life hold no terror or even worry for our Greg. Unperturbed and blithesome, she goes her way leaving the cares and troubles to the rest of us mortals. If time lags and you would be entertained, just look for Greg and she will hold you enthralled with a scintillating review of current events. ANNE GUTMAN 74 Conant Street, Beverly. W. A. A. 4. Topics- of-the-Day Club 4. Orchestra 4. Firm to resolve, Patient to perform. Anne was a newcomer to Bridgewater this year, but it did not take her long to become one of us. She is a welcome addition in the classroom as those of us in History and Soc will testify. And how could anyone who has seen her on the soccer field forget the way she can follow that ball! We ' ve certainly enjoyed your brief stay, Anne, but wish you had come sooner. MARION ETHEL HANRAHAN 1929 Beacon Street, Brighton. W. A. A. 1, 2, 3, 4. Scouts 1, 2. Hobby Club 3, 4. Scotch grit and Irish wit. Marion is a girl with a purpose. We all admire her for overcoming obstacles, keeping that sense of humor busy, and keeping on toward that same goal — to teach the blind. Her hobbies are manifold — from collecting pennies to collecting plants. Her talents are many; so also are her friends. 24
