iHi morabtUa We now I ' ocus our attention on one of the sunniest girls in onr class of ’3f). But don’t let that sweet smile disillusion you, because our Mary is just as mischievous as any of our merry-makers, and wherever there’s fun, there’s Mary. “Benny” never missed a good time if she could help it, hut neither did she ever get below the grade. A party would never be complete with- out the hilarious laughter of this young damsel. And who ever saw Mary at any of our social functions when she wasn’t enjoying herself to the ut- most? Mary is undecided as to what her future will be, hut we know that whatever she takes up, she will be a success. The class of ’35 wishes her the best of luck. Look out girls, here conies “Berry” up the corridor with his ready smile beaming on his face. “Sam” w as one member of the Tau Sigma who was always trying to show what Mr. Gordon preached at his “Manners Club.” He was a thorn in the side of Mr. McGrail in the History class with his fantastic questions, and he provided most of the fun in that class. Who will forget his signing of one of his themes with, ‘‘this is the Berries,” and the correction written in by the t eacher? As a member of the 1934 Track Team, “Sam” ran in the mile — and made his letter in that sport. Although he is nonchalant as a rule, his smile and humorous disposition have won him many friends of both sexes. He has not revealed to us his future amhition, but people with a disposi- tion like “Sam’s” invariably make a success of life. Good luck, “Sam,” from “35.” Let us focus our attention on one of the serious members of our class of ’35. Nevertheless, her seriousness does not detract from her sweet, gen- erous, and kind manner and although she never attended many socials, when she did she always seemed to be enjoying herself. “Polly” has taken the Commercial Course and by the enthusiasm with which she studied her “Stenog” at recess, we presume that her future endeavors will be in that field. Whether she has inclination toward bookkeeping, secretarial wmrk, or stenography, we don’t know for she has not made her future plans known to us, but anyway, we know what to expect from someone with as much determination and optimism as she has. Although her smile is capable of conquering many “Romeo’s”, we know that it is far from her earnest ambition or thoughts. Oceans of luck from dear old ’35. 1335 27

ll mnrabtlta And now we come to Carl Boyce — better known to the boys as “Ren.” Although a resident of the big city of Berlin, “Ben” took an active part in all school activities. He was a familiar sight at all school shows, athletic events, and affairs of a similar nature, and was especially active during recess in Room 7. (Ask Mr. Dyer). Although Carl did not participate in sports while in High School, it was not of his own choosing, as living out of town prevented his attendance at practice. There is no doubt, however, that “Ben” had the ability to “make” our baseball and football teams, as his participation in these sports and also in basketball for both Berlin and Acre teams, proved him to be an accom- plished athlete. We have not been informed as to Carl’s future plans, but whiatever they might ' be, we are sure that he will be a success, and the well wishes of the class of 1935 follow him wherever he goes. Quiet? — Well! Not exactly — Wild? — No, not that either. “Franny” is just a regular fellow, who seems to have a smile for everyone — and who seems to enjoy life to the utmost. He has made many friends in lall classes and, need- less to say, of both sexes, during his stay in High School. If medals were awarded for faithful attendance at oii|r athletic games — “Franny” would have a lot of them — for he rarely missed a contest of any kind — from horseshoes to whatever “the gang” on West Street call their games. While we do not quite understand what is meant by his pretended love for music, still it is rumored that “Franny” has leanings toward music. We who know that he has never attempted any instrument other than a radio can’t see any connection — but it might be explained some diay. “Franny” is another member of our class who has not divulged his future ambitions. But like all the rest, there is no doubt but that some day the wagon will come along that he can hitch to a star. Success, and lot-s of it, “Franny” from your pals in ’35. It has been many years since there have been any students from Berlin in the graduating class of Clinton High School. This year there are three, one of whom is May Bridges. May has taken the commercial course, has made good in her classes, and is well liked by her classmates. She has taken part in several of the High School shows, and she is a member of the History Circle, where she also acts as secretary. Outside of stenography and bookkeeping her chief hobby is “stone” (?). As one of the typists of the Class Book, May has worked hard to make it a success. May has not yet decided where she will continue her education, but one thing we all know — she will be a fine secretary for some business man in the near future. Lots of success. May — from ’35. 1335 29
