iMmorafatlta We now introduce Alyce, one of the fortunate girls from Burditt Hill. She is one of our most obliging classmates and her well-liked disposition and good na- ture have won her many friends, especially one certain person in the back of the Hall. Facts or ideas never worry Alyce, as she believes that imagination rules the world. The quality that makes “Al” different from every other member of her class is her genius in the line of laughing. She is unsurpassed in this profession, and confesses that the more listeners she has, the more she enjoys laughing. Alyce leaves us for Massachusetts General Hospital where some day we will see her in a nurses’ uniform, unless that temptress. Fate, intervenes in some way. The class of ’34 wishes you the best of luck, ‘Al.” Now we come to one of the quieter fellows in the class, but one well known for his athletic ability. “Bill” held down the third base position on our Junior Inter-Class team, and as a fielder left little to be desired. His peg across the dia- mond came like a bullet, and if you don’t think so, ask the first baseman. “Bill” isn’t very big, so he didn’t slash many out of the park, but when a well placed hit was needed, he delivered. As a dash man in the track meets, “Bill” ran the “100,” and finished right up there in front. In his years here, “Bill” was too light for varsity football, but stood out at end on the Senior Inter-Class team. He was down the field like a flash covering the punts, and very few yards were gained around his end. “Bill” is undecided about the future, but he will probably uphold the honor of Clinton High at either Holy Cross or Fordham. Here’s luck, “Wink,” from ’34. “Giggles,” who hails from our supurb, Boylston, braves the weather each day to travel to our ultra-modern High School. “Buttons’ ” attendance at school has been excellent, the only thing that has kept her away from our institution being the big snowstorms which made Boylston snowbound. Jennie’s schoolmates call her “Buttons” for short, which fits her like an overcoat. “Peggie” is one of these “quiet, bashful gals,” but when she gets started — oh! what a transformation. It has been proved to our satisfaction that these modest looking young fe- males are usually bashful in the presence of males, but this “gal” is an excep- tion to the rule. “Giggles” has not gone in for many of the class activities, the fact that she lives out of town making it difficult to be present as often as she might wish. 1934 wishes you success in the years to come, “Peggie.” 1934 27
