' OAO vi) AO ' ' i)AO vi)AO v!) H mnralttlta vaA - Ami now as you glance at this page you see a fellow that has developed into one of our most dignified seniors. He is a hoy of action and gets his exercise in finding how much noise he can make and how many things he can wreck making it. He goes in for mathematics in a big way, and is capable of doing “al- most” any problem in algebra, arithmetic or combinations of ' both. It is a fact that he is going to tackle Einstein’s theory on the fourth dimension at Worcester Tech, after his graduation from these great halls of knowledge. Although he did not go out for varsity competition, baseball, football, and hockey are right up his alley. He excels in swimming .also, being a senior life saver, and hunting is one of his hobbies. Best of luck from ‘35, “Art.” Next on the list of notables we have a boy who is very popular among his classmates, not only because of his great personality, but also because of his athletic inclinations. He may often be seen down at the Church St. Stadium going through the paces of whatever sport is then in vogue, with “Ang,” “Ted,” and the rest of the “Unbeatable” athletic teams of that section. As a back on our varsity football team for the past two years, “Art” has shown his heels to many a would-be tackier. We well remember the game two years ago in Leominster when he almost got away for a touchdown af- ter a long run, the longest of that game. ■“Art” is undecided as to his future career but we know that in whatever he chooses he will do well. Best of luck, “Art,” from ‘35. Here you see Vera, one of our most cheerful and ever ready classmates, who has always finished all that she has started, to the best of her ability. We consider that quality an excellent one. Her cheerful smile and greeting is another good quality, for no matter where you see her, she will greet you with that winsome smile. Vera has gained many friendships in C. H. S. during her stay here, and her spirit of friendliness is well known to all. Her smile just seems to invite friendships and she possesses the charm to perpetuate them after- ward. Vera is known as a very quiet resourceful person even though she took part in many activities and socials. While she does not seem to care for H. S. athletics, we know that it is because her tastes are of a different va- riety, such as bouncing up and down on the back of a cantering steed. Although we have not succeeded in probing into her future hopes and ambitions, we can be certain that she will pick a profession or vocation that will suit her exactly. The class unites in wishing you good luck in your future career, Vera. 1935 23

iH morabtlta In her studies, “Ruthy” has always succeeded, and the same spirit of progressiveness and attentiveness that was shown in C. H. S. will aid her to succeed in whatever she undertakes in the future. “Ruthie” attended all high school functions regiihilrly, and always seemed to enjoy herself at them. She has made scores of friends while in High School, and we know that the qualities that have endeared her to her classmates will continue to win many lasting friendships in the years to come. Ruth is undecided as to her future plans. She has considered many fields, but can’t seem to make up her mind as to which is to be “the one.” We think, however, that away back in “Ruthie’s” mind is the desire to be a pharmacist, and it would not surprise us to find “Ruthie” filling out pre- scriptions at some future date. The Class of ’35 gives her its sincerest wishes for success. “Better late than never” is Mary’s motto, but we guess it’s because Clark Street is so far from the High School. She is a girl whom we all know and admire for her good humor, kindness, and generosity. Mary always manages to do as well in her studies as she does in everything else (?). She never fails to get the right side of a joke even when it’s on herself, a characteristic which commands respect in anyone. Mary is very active in our many clubs, and surely does her part to make them a success. Her popularity was proven when as a Sophomore, she was elected to be Secretary of our class, Mary intends to enter the portals of Massachusetts General Hospital, and we’re sure she’ll emerge a most capable nurse. Best of luck to you Mary, from ' 35. Now, you are coming to one of Clinton High’s reai students, in more ways than one. Joseph Bednarczk, otherwise known to his classmates as “Joe.” “Joe” has had a lot of fun here in school but also has been of the serious type when circumstances required it. His scholastic standing in High School is among the best. He has made quite a record here, a record that should be followed by those who wish to aspire to greatness. In football, “Joe” was one of Clinton’s greatest ends an d when one of the opposing backs tried to circle it, well — he thought twice afterwards. In baseball, “Joe,” although he went out for short-stop, pa- trolled the center field garden like a veteran. He was also a menace to opposing twirlers. Special mention should be made of his hockey ability pro- duced in Clinton High in late years. “Joe’s” future is undetermined but wherever he goes, he may be sure that the well wishes of ’35 go with him. 1935 25
