MARJORIE L. CHALMERS Meet 5 ' 2 Marjorie, the gal with the Jenny Lind voice. We owe the success of the Vocal groups to her, and the Girls’ League entertainments would be lost without her. However, we have it on the strictest authority that Marge will drop her operatic career and become a brain surgeon. No matter what career she follows, she is sure to be a great success. Archery 1; Red Cross 1, 2; Girls ' League H. R. R. 1, 2, 3; Senior Adviser 4; Spanish Club 3; Glee Club Rep 1, Sec. 2, Sec., V. Pres. 4; Girls Vocal Ensemble 1, 2, 3, 4; Kaarina 2; Cheer- leader 3, 4 ; Science Club 4 ; Sports Dance Com. 3; Pep Club 3, 4; Girls’ Auxiliary 4. A. HARVEY CINAMON The pastime of this lad, whose nick- name is unmentionable, is waiting for February 29. After seeing that, we can readily believe his conviction that he should have been a quiz kid.” As soon as June 17 rolls around Harvey plans to enter the Marines, so that he won’t feel bad about Wake Island. 1st prize, Poster Contest 3 ; Bank 3, 4; H. R. V. Chm. 3. RUTH CLARK Blue-eyed Ruth Clark is one of those people whose burning ambition is to travel and see the world. (Guess she ' ll have to wait a while). In the meantime, Ruth has successfully completed her four years at dear old B.H.S. and is planning to enter secretarial school after graduation. Girls’ League 3, 4; Dramatic Soc. 4. RUTHE F. CLAYTON Ruthie” enjoys teasing . . . probably because she’s a younger sister”. Her favorite organization is the Dramatic Society . . . her favorite subject ought to be history . . . she got an A in a history monthly . . . once. She spends her time reading Superman, and wondering when World War II will be over. Basketball 1; Archery 2; Tennis 2; Girls’ Auxiliary 4; Science Club 4; Girls’ League 1, 2, 3, 4; H. R. Sec. 1, 2, 3, 4; Bank Teller 1, Messenger 2, 3, 4; Dramatic Soc. 4; Murivian H. R. R. 4. GERALDINE S. CLEGG Chickie” wants to be a secretary, but ' till then she ' ll settle for dates with Phillip Monahan. The football team amuses her . . . the movies please her . . . and Guy Lombardo intrigues her. Right now she would like nothing better than to leave B.H.S. in 1943 and pass office practice. . . the former sort of depends on the latter. Basketball 1 ; Tennis 1 ; Bank Teller 4; Girls’ League 1, 2. BEVERLEY HARRIETTE COHEN Bev wants to be a doctor — love of hu- manity, no doubt. She gets teary when she hears people say I didn’t open a book last night.” Although she hasn’t any suppressed desire, she has a passion for Chinamen with pigtails, Spanish idioms, Scottish Highlanders, Chemistry and knitting. Girls’ League 1, 2, 4; Science Club 2; Glee Club 1. CARL PHILIP COHEN This young man is probably the most distinguished looking boy in the high school. Don’t think it’s due to any out- standing accomplishment (look at his list of organizations) ; those graying temples” have done the trick. Zeke’s anathema is Giggling girls” . . . and his current heart throb is Rita Hayworth. But then Carl is a fickle land ... we just don’t know what other actress he’ll go with next! Boys’ Club 1, 2, 3. CHARLOTTE COHEN Chari, otherwise known as the great luffer , is simply nuts about sailing at Marblehead. Her suppressed desire is to be an American Spy in Germany ; since it ' s suppressed, she spends her time watching Harvard play football. Her interest is selling War Stamps and Bonds. Glee Club 1, 2, 3; Kaarina 2; Bank Teller 2, Messenger 3; Faculty Ass’t 4; Marshal 1, 2 ; Waitress, Senior Banquet 1, 2; Girls’ League 1, 2, 4; German Club Sec. 4. DAVID O. COHEN Seemingly gifted with scientific ten- dencies, Dave considers physics his fav- orite subject, but then fails to follow through in chemistry, for he says that his outstanding accomplishment was go- ing from A to D in that subject in one month. However, if his future plans ma- terialize, neither of these will be of paramount importance, because in the Marine Corps he will be kept busy with other things. Track 1, 2, 3, 4 ; Touchdown Club 4; Track Club 2; Bank Teller 1, 2; Boys’ Club Rep. 3, 4. GERTRUDE COHEN Gerty pronounced with a Brooklyn e , would like to go to Grinnel Col- lege, Iowa. (We don’t like where it is either). But when it comes to boys, Gert is strictly a believer in mono-maleism — one man at a time — (but the question is . . . how many times?) Red’s fondest thoughts are all focused on Camp Swift, Texas. Girls’ League 4. Rep. 5; Bank Teller 5; Library Rep. 5. Entered 4 from Brighton High. 31

EDMUND JOSEPH BURKE All types of girls are Ed ' s failure, although he sometimes wonders what will become of the men now that women wear slacks. Sports, aviation, and the Navy are his pet interests and his one big accomplishment in life has been passing three years of Latin. Baseball 1 ; H. R. V. Chm. 4. CATHERINE BURNS If anyone knows anything about this girl please report to 239. She ' s very non-committal but we do know that she plays the piano and that her favorite organization is the Navy. Also, our re- search bureau has discovered that her nickname is Pinky”. As to her future plans, they ' re just one more undisclosed item. ELAINE BURTON Burt’s suppressed desire is a universal one — she wants to see h r brothers again. She wants to speed up victory by going into some part of the service. Through her chief interest is out of the country she still manages to keep late hours. That’s quite an accomplishment, don ' t you think? MARIA A. BUSALACCHI This young lady with the architectural tendencies (she says she has a Roman nose), is quite an accomplished person. She has the distinction of having had her art work exhibited at the Art Mu- seum. When interviewed, she told us that she hopes to make art her life work, but she’s very fickle, so we really can’t tell. EDWARD A. CAHILL JR. On the track Ace” has proved his ability, not only in running, but in hu- moring F. Dean. Da Woman,” how- ever, is his main interest. But no woman can take Bud’s interest off the U. S. Marine Air Corps, for that’s where he’s going after graduation, and where he’s sure to be a credit to B. H. S. Football 1, 2, 3, 4; J. V. Letter 3; Track 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ; Var.

NUNCIATA LORETTA CAMPAGNA Nancy must have an eye out for either hard work or what, in her mind, is glamour, ' cause she wants to be an Army nurse. She also is on an all-out cam- paign against little freshmen wearing those long, long shirts. Will they pro- test if we say we agree, too? Hockey 3; Girls’ League Rep. 1, 2, 3, 4; Lost and Found Com. 2, 4; Glee Club 1, 2 ; Senior Adviser 4. ALAN B. CAMPBELL He isn’t kiddin’, when Bruise” says he wants to be a Prof, at M.I.T. U.S. Marines and Lou Costello rate high with him. But his deep passion is Charles Boyer (ain’t Lana Turner good enough for him?). In his five years at B. H. S., Scotty has proved his likeability with a capital L . Boys’ Club 2; Science Club 2, 3, 5. JAMES CAROLAN A red-head with a cheerful disposi- tion . . . that’s Jim. Although he’s ac- tive in other sports, his main interest is golf. Jim wants to be a success in life. The way to accomplish this, in his esti- mation, is to be the pro at the Pinehurst Country Club in North Carolina . . . and maybe teach Veronica Lake! Football Mgr. 1, 2, 3, Ass’t Mgr. 4; Hockey 1 ; Hockey Mgr. 2, 3, 4 ; Golf 1 ; Touchdown Club 1, 2, 3, Sec. 4. Entered from Horace Marin School, Roxbury 1. JAMES CARSON Husky Jim is an all-round athlete. Not only is he an ardent member of our foot- ball team, but he also wishes to become either a member of the Phil Spitalny Orchestra, or to play quarterback for the Chicago Bears. He has a lazy ambi- tion ... to test mattresses for a living. Baseball 1, 2, 3, 4; Basketball 1; Football 4; Touchdown Club 4; Muriv- ian H. R. R. 4. VIRGINIA A. CASEY As soon as Ginnie gets her diploma, she (all 5 ' 6 of her) plans to go to nursing school. She will have to stop spending her time in that black La Salle, but we’re sure it’s worth it. After all, she’ll be helping her interest , the rest of the Army Air Corps, and doing a necessary job besides. Field Hockey 1, 2; Basketball 2; Badminton 1, 2; Girls’ League 1, 2, 3, 4. 30

HYMAN COHEN As advice to his pals, Hyman says, Live and Learn — after all, he should know! He seems to be a rabid bicyclist as his favorite hangout is the bike room and his favorite organization, the bike group headed by that versatile Uncle Art. However, waiting outside Mr. Totman’s office and aviation are good time-wasters for him. Boys’ Club 1, 2, 3, Rep. 4; Murivian H. R. R. 4; Usher, Newton Game 3. RAE ELIZABETH COHEN Sugar has a real peeve in egotistical men. She says in a sage way that it isn ' t where you come from, it is what you are. Besides, her interest is 6 ' 1 and a foot- ball player. Chemistry is her favorite subject and she’d like to be a lab tech- nician in the future. Golf 2, 3; Horseback Riding 4; Sci- ence Club 4; Bank Teller 4; Girls’ League 2, 3, 4; Girls’ Auxiliary 4. ROSALYN COHEN Gullible Roz, with those enchanting green eyes, is, sad to relate, not inter- ested in us, but rather with something over there ”, She states that her out- standing accomplishment over here is controlling her temper in 2nd period on Tuesday. Shoes, shoes, shoes, what would Roz ' s world be without them? English Club 2 ; Girls’ League 2, 3 ; Bank Teller 4. Entered 2 from Lowell High. THEODORA B. COMMONS Teddy is most well-known by her long, glamorous blond hair. Another characteristic of Teddy’s, although pretty well hidden, is her temper, she says. Considering how much she talks about it and how often she does it, we gather she loves roller skating. She sincerely believes that this is worth fighting for” and so has high hopes to be an A-l nurse. Basketball 2; Girls’ League 1, 2, 3, 4; Girls’ Foods Club 1 ; Girls’ Auxiliary 3, 4. JOAN E. CONNELLY Joanie hopes never to be disappointed in life. She likes art — her own and other good stuff, red — real bright, and Gary Cooper, but not hats. She is un- certain about her future and devotes her serious thoughts to it. However, for the present Joan ' II spend time being lazy. Girls’ League 1 ; Poster Club 2 ; Bank- ing Staff 3- JOHN A. CONROY ”J” — you know, the fellow who spends his time inflating tires on loco- motives — is still wondering about the strong box under John Nason’s bed. His favorite hangout is the corridor outside 124 where he can ask Who did the homework” without disturbing anyone. Future plans include B. C. and engineer- ing.

Treas. 3; LIsher, Graduation 3- NORMAN COHN This patriotic young man is willing to give up his pet passions, sleeping and going to the movies, to become a radio- man in the Navy. However this is only a means to a certain end . . . Hitler’s. When not worrying about Adolf’s fu- ture, Norman spends his time rooting for the Boston Red Sox, his favorite organization. Baseball Mgr. 1 ; Bank Teller 4; Boys’ Club 1, 2, 3. THOMAS COLEMAN T”, who hopes to be a retired Marine very soon, should like very much to come down Corey Hill with no brakes. Perhaps that ' s why his favorite quota- tion is to be or not to be. He tells us that his interest is the same as any other he-man. Are you referring to the Ma- rines, Tom? MURIEL RUTH COOPER Dark-eyed Muriel is, one of B.H.S. ' s foremost pacifists. Peace on earth, good will towards men,” is her motto, and her most serious desire is to see this war over with peace insured forever.

GLORIA CLAIRE COPELLMAN Gloria is one of B.H.S.’s aspiring Jenny Linds as those of you who saw Kaarina may recall. Glo”, however, has many other interests at the moment, interests which include reading, acting, History and College.
