“J irillinfi mind makes a hard jounieif east ” THERESA F. GIBBONS “Tessie” Dramatics, 4. Normal Course. Generous, kind, and loving ' , j.eresa is a treasure to the class, a friend to all her classmates, and a relief from monotony to the teachers. We know she will not get puffed up, when she reads this, for Theresa is not that kind. She is a great favorite in the class, especially with i Iary McCaffrey, with whom she has chummed incessantly. Teresa is a very interesting talker; at least Miss Walsh thinks so. She surely can make you feel what she is saying. Remember ‘ Shakespeare au Gratin!” Wasn’t it creepy when she made her voice croaky like a witch’s? She certainly was some witch all right. Fitchburg Normal seems to be Teresa’s destination. Wouldn’t it be funny if she should become prim when she leaves there? But she couldn’t. For Teresa will be Teresa wherever she goes. 28

‘‘J soul as white as hcareii” MARY T. GIBBONS Class Book Staff; Student Staff; Dramatics, 4; Orchestra, 4; Class Prophetess; Junior Prom Committee. College Course. As we look upon her picture above, we can count only one- half of Mary’s good features. She will always be remembered as that ever popular girl that has made so many friends through her four long and happy years in C. H. S. Mary was of great prominence in English IV, for she was constantly being called upon to give her expert version of the passage or the exact word that was required to fill the sense. We all are still wondering whether it was Mary’s personal appearance or what it was that helped Mary carry herself so victoriously through the last period of each day of her fourth year. Of course we have all heard about it. Mary won fame as an actress in the Senior play, and showed her wonderful ability even more in “Shakespeare au Gratin.’’ She was also an invaluable member of the Student Board. We begin to wonder now that we are compelled to separate from each other what will happen to Mary when she will not have the guiding hand of her constant companion, Izzie. But we are all of the opinion that she will surely make good from the record she has made in C. H. S. 27

)n ui ircll liked hi men, — and iconien, oo” ARTHUR W. GRAVES “Pooch” Class Book Staff; G. F. N. B.; Junior Prom Committee. Technical Course. Pooch a lady’s man? Perhaps so, but a good sport all the same. Pooch is right there when there is a dance or anything in the line of social events, for would a C. H. S. affair be complete without him and his partner? We think not. At the school plays Pooch spent endless hours gathering rugs, chairs, etc., for the stage, but it was worth doing in order lo get out of school — at least he thinks so. Pooch is not exactly a shark — in the “chemical” sense of the word — but he is far from a flunker. He is one who takes his studies easily and usually successfully. Arthur (sounds strange, doesn’t it?) has talent in the line of music, for his rag-time on the piano is — well — up to ihe minute for dancing. vVe will say nothing about the rest of the Agony Quartet. Pooch intends to enter M. I. T. in the fall, and if his good nature and witty disposition hold out, he will certainly succeed. The good-will and best wishes of classmates and friends will go with him. 29
