ALFRED FERRIERA “Al” Pit Saying—“How’s everything?” Pastime—Collecting sports data. Activities—A. A. (10. 11. 12) ; French Club (10). Whenever one enters a quiet study room, chances arc that “Al” would be one of the students there. Hut if Alfred is given an opportunity to talk he could “rattle off” and continue to talk as a sports announcer would do. for that is “Al's” ambition, sportscasting. He was one of the lucky boys to earn a trip to one of the World Series games in Detroit last year. HERBERT UfFRANCIS. JR. et fl.ynlt Xonic onPstmle!’ Wasflun -—il.ittcjb g to Glenn Miller. 'peretta.

 HOWARD DION “Babe” Pet Saying—“Save it for me.” Pastime—Joking. Activities—A. A. (10. 11. 12). Here is “Babe” the class comedian. He believes that a laugh a day keeps the doctor away, so for good measure has at least one good laugh every period. His personality will certainly bring him success in anything he does. We all hope he will succeed in becoming a machinist’s mate the Navy. JOHN DRAINVILLE “Johnny” Pet Saying—“Son O'ma gun !” Pastime -Roller Skating. Activities—A. A.. English Club (10. 11). Johnny is the heart-breaker of the Room class, but well liked by everyone. You should see Johnny and “Sha” battle it out on any school subject. One of our best debaters, he would make a good lawyer. We hope he succeeds. 3 English WARREN DRAINVILLE “Dry” Pet Saying—“For Christmas sake.” Pastime—Dancing. Activities—Athletic Association (10. 11. 12). Meet “Dry” who is always trying to stump Mr. Murgo in some math problem, but he never succeeds. There is hardly a dull moment when lie’s around.

As yet he is undecided about the future, but we know he will succeed in his line of endeavor. 17

RAYMOND F. GABLINSKE. “Ray” Pet Saying—“Who's springing?' Pastime—Smiling. Activities—Aggie Club, A. A. “Ray” is the right hand man olalmost any member of his class. Wonder why he blushes in class or when he talks to any member of the opposite sex. He isn’t what you’d call the talkative type, but he can do his share. He is a hard-working fellow once he gets started. We hear Ray’s going to enlist in the Navy. Luck to you. Ray. MARCIA GIFFORD “Misha” Pet Saying—“My word!” Pastime—Playing the piano.

We turn the spotlight on “Speed.” the boy who claims that some day he will manage his own night club. In his spare time he goes to Warren to hunt for the prospective site of his club.
