1934 ALPHA ALICE MARIE HOMER 19 Clinton Avenue, Brockton. W. A. A. 1, 3, 4. Bas- ketball 1. Soccer 2. Dancing 2, 3. Library Club 3, 4. Topics of the Day 3, 4. She ' s little but she ' s wise; She ' s a terror for her size. Christmas won ' t be Christmas without any pres- ents says Alice as Amy in Little Women . We can ' t see how anyone could refuse Alice anything. But for all her youthfulness, Alice has gone a long way towards appreciating that life goes on even under heavy assign- ments and term tests, and her high spirits are never more than momentarily dimmed. LOUISE MARY HOUGH 72 Franklin Street, South Braintree. We grant although she has much wit, She is very shy of using it. Life without variety bores Louise so it is not surpris- ing to find her in many of the Junior High courses here, although she came only two years ago from the Lesley Kindergarten School. Her easy manner will be an asset no matter which field she enters. HELENE DOLORES JOHNSON 66 Hamilton Street, Wollaston. W. A. A. 1, 2, 3. Dancing 1. Hockey 1, 2, 3. French Club 1, 2, 3, 4. Glee Club 1, 2, 3, 4. A dancing shape, an image gay To haunt, to startle, and waylay. Through school our petite Helene has dipped into many interests from music to hockey — missing little of the spice of campus life. Having once graduated she could not quite decide to leave forever and came back for her degree. Professorship is the only thing left now, Helene. 28

CLASSES GUNVOR HENRIKSEN 57 Grove Street, Milton. W. A. A. 1, 2, 3, 4. Head of Soccer 3, Soccer 1, 2, 3, 4. Dancing 1, 2. Garden Club 1. Topics of the Day 3. Dormitory Council 2. Student Cooperative Association Treasurer 4. Dramatic Club 2, 3, 4, Secretary 3, Business Manager 2, 3. Who can be wise, amazed, temperate, and furious in a moment. When Gunny is serious she is efficiency plus but when she is relaxed she ' s the entertainer supreme. It ' s hard to believe two such extremes of one person but the transformation is easily made and Gunvor knows which Gunny to keep in the foreground. RUTH HENRY 19 Endicott Street, Waltham. W. A. A. 1, 2, 3. Base- ball 1, 2, 3. Basketball 1, 2, 3. Hockey 1, 2. Soccer 1, 2. Volleyball 1, 2, 3, 4. Tennis 1. Topics of the Day 3, 4, Vice-President 3, President 3, 4. Campus Comment 1. Though we cannot make our sun stand still, yet we will make him rise. We truly believe Ruth loves to work. True happiness to her means accomplishment. And is she in demand the night before a dance? Ask any dormitory girl who is cursed with straight hair and she ' ll tell you how popular and efficient Ruth is. DOROTHY HIXON 4 Summit Avenue, Melrose Highlands. W. A. A. 1, 2, 3, 4. Dormitory Council 2. Orchestra 1. Drama- tic Club 2, 3, 4. Student Council 1, 2, 3, 4. Class Representative 1 , 2. Secretary 2, 3. Vice-President 4. Take thee these talents, and make the most of them. Because of her ability to organize and to run dances and teas very successfully, and to participate in the art of drama whether as the landlady of a boarding house or as a hero, we dare predict anything but a prosaic future for Dot. 27

CLASSES MARIE CATHERINE JOHNSON 10 Brook Road, Quincy. W. A. A. 1, 2, 3, 4. Science Club 3, 4, Vice President 4. Dancing 2, 3, 4. Track 1, 2. Bowling 2, 3, 4. I have marked a thousand blushing apparitions To start into her face. We ordinary mortals marvel at Marie ' s cool and sure attack of anything savoring of the mathematical. A slight reserve may hide some of her sterling qualities but how much is there for those who find the natural Marie. FRANCES KELLY 3 Newbury Street, Roslindale. And for they looked but with divining eyes They had not skill enough your worth to sing. Two of the silly, friendly things which we shall re- member about Frances are her sleepiness and her mul- titudinous fountain pens. A pen to go with every costume and a nap in every class took Frances serenely through college. The pens denote the student and the handkerchiefs the artist of one very swell person. MARGARET KIMBALL 11 Parsons Street, Newburyport. W. A. A. 1 , 2, 3, 4. Basketball 1, 2, 3, 4. Hockey 1. Baseball 1,2. Bowl- ing 2. Scouts 1. Science Club 2. Dramatic Club 3, 4. Vice President of class 2. Class Representative 3. Dormitory Council 2, 4. President of Normal Hall 4. Student Council 2, 3. When most I wink, then do my eyes most see. Not to be understood by, but to understand — charac- terizes this extremely demure but never miss any- thing girl. Through everything penetrates herability and popularity. On Third Floor Back many of her friends were very much surprised at her unexpected musical ability at the piano. It was just another one of those surprises creeping through the surface of Kimmie ' s personality. 29
