01937 NIADELI NE ELIZABETH BARTELL 19 Day Street, Norwood. Student Council 3, 4: Camera Club 3, 4: German Club 2: Girl Scouts 1: Chairman of Bulletin Board Com- mittee 3, 4: Archery 3. Modern art is the keynote to Madeline's whole series of interests f-color, the theatre, peasant workmanship, Vincent Van Gogh: she appreciates them all. For recreation, she really prefers walking in the rain, canoe- ing, or archery. And would you know that which Madeline avoids at all times? Of course it's Victorianism: ----- and politics! MARY FRANCES BARTLEY Sandwich. Chairman Social Activities Com- mittee 4: Treasurer of Class 1, 2, 3: Student Council 4: 1st Vice-President Student Cooper- ative Association 4: Orchestra 1, 2, 3, Assistant Student Director 3: Glee Club 2, 3. Between solemn resolutions to study hard Mary does more pleasant things, such as re- viving the ancient art of conversation, es- pecially dialogue. Her eyes express what she does not speak. Small wonder the merrie lassie is so popular with one of the lads! NELLlE GRACE BEATON 80 Lakewood Road, South Weymouth. Class Representative 1 and 2: Class Secretary 1, 2, 3: President of Day Student Council 4: Campus Comment, Reporterl, Assistant News Editor 2, News Editor 3, Feature Editor 4: Alpha Board 4: Camera Club 3, 4: Hobby Club 3: Civics Committee 4: Dramatic Club 4: Inter-Club Council 4: Student Council 1, 2, 4: Tennis 1: Hockey 1, 2, 3: Basket-ball 4. Nellie provides us with an example of the magnetic personality. From the first day at Bridgewater she has been an outstanding member of our class. A zealous student, a charming conversationalist, a capable or- ganizer, she is one ofthe backbones ofthe class. THELMA HOWARD BECK 40 Dudley Street, New Bedford. Scouts 1: Dormitory Council 3, 4: Secretary Pro-tem 4: Woodward Dormitory, Head Proctor 3, Vice-President 4: Bowling 3, 4. lt's the seaman's life for Thelma, for how enthusiastic she grows as she thinks of sailing and boats, and moonlight on the water! Paradoxically enough, she loves to sleep, too, and we hear she teaches a history lesson which sends the would-be experts scurrying to the shelter of the text-books. Even her dislikes are widely scattered, including chop suey, guns, and sewing. 23 .gf ,z f -if ff 1 X f f , , .PH ,A i

FREDERIC NICKOLAS AGNETTA 469 Adams Street, Ashmont. Dapper Fred, the literary critic from Dor- chester, the strong silent man of the Class of '37, Philosophically-minded, Freddie, al- though at times bored, occasionally made brilliant contributions. ELIZABETH VAN DE SANDE ALLEN 3 Waban Street, Wellesley. Handbook Com- mittee 3g Hobby Club 1. Betty is usually wearing a smock, carrying a work of art, and headed for the art depart- ment. Very quiet lexcept in the dorm, we hearl Betty silently follows her own inclina- tions in her own way. Her outward composure is imperturbable. LEO ALPERT 96 Waumbeck Street, Roxbury. Treasurer of Alpha 45 Science Club 3, 4. Assuming that the cat that walks alone catches the most mice, we predict that Leo will have more of the furry fellows about his door than the Bishop of Bingen. He moves about, calm, prudent, and productive. We see little of him but feel that behind that inscrutable smile there is personality even as we know that there is intellectuality. ANNA ANDERSON 201 Howard Street, West Bridgewater. Class Representative 1, 2, 43 Day Student Council, Secretary 1, 2, 3, 45 Student Council 1, 2, 4. Truly everyone's friend-A capable, good humored, with a fine sense of values, entirely without selfishness or conceit. Her sincere personality, understanding smile, and cheery words have endeared her to all. I TS -1. 4.4-c,,'C,f'!...1.-14 4,5 ii' . .. F' h, l I . p V 1 4 -' ' 22 C v ALPHA LW' K :nc 1-1+ H .

CARlLYN CHAPIN BELL 1 Normal Street, Worcester. Kindergarten Primary Club 1, 2, 4. Carilyn has more depth than her gay sur- face reveals. Because of her constant knitting, she has earned the nickname Madame Defarge . Her easy, carefree manner and her attractive clothes make her a well-known figure on the campus. X 1 VERNE ELWOOD BODWELL 37 Covington Street, Bridgewater. Basket- ball 1, 2, 3, 4. Perhaps the greatest recommendation of Verne's personality is that he could get up in the middle of the nightffwell at 6:30 A.M. anyhowfto go on bird walks, and still be a part of the hectic life that goes on the rest of the day. ELLA M. BONYMAN 79 Stedman Street, Quincy. Glee Club 4. Although Ella has been with us only a year her lovable smile is known to us all. Her sunny personality has won her many friends. We admire her for her versatility in art and music. Her snappy conversation has Iivened our commuting days. EDWARD ROBERT BOWLES 287 Reed Street, Rockland. Baseball 1, 2, 3, 45 Coach 3, 43 Captain 43 Basketball 3, 43 Soccer 2, 3. He has perhaps the happiest smile it is our luck to see about. The perennial sophomore- one of the first really natural athletes Bridge- water has ever had. 24 ALPHA
