Kathryn Gertrude Dundas Normal Course History Circle; Athletic Association; Prom. Committee; Radio Rente And here is Kathryn. No one could help but like her at the first meeting. Friendly and gay, Katie has become one of our most popular girls, and can be seen at all the school functions. Kathryn has been faithful in her studies throughout her four years in High School, and as a result, she always managed to stay near the top of the class. She has decided upon a nursing career, and we all know that with her conscientious nature and cheery disposition, she will make an excellent nurse. Helen Patricia Durkin Commercial Course Historical Society; Cheerleader: History Circle; Prom. Comm.; St. Mihiel Day Helen is that demure, little girl whom we all admire and whom we all have the advantage of knowing. No matter what dance you attend she is one of the first on the floor. Helen is also a loyal sports fan. She’s always on hand for baseball, basketball, and is one of our cheer-leaders at the football games. She is better known as one of the best girl swimmers in Clinton. Remember the water carnival? Helen’s pretty face, pleasing- personality, and cheery disposition will certainly help her climb the ladder of success. Good luck, Helen, from the class of 1938. Ronald Everett Duvarney Commercial Course History Circle; Tan Sigma; Football 4: Football Club; Prom. Committee Let us introduce “Duke.” He and Charlie may be seen going- from class to class together everyday, the modern version of David and Jonathan. “Duke” doesn’t stay up all night studying, yet, you never see a red mark on his card. He is the kind of a fellow everyone likes to meet, a boy with a winning smile, carefree attitude, and athletic manner. A glance at his activities list shows him to be a very busy young man. We understand “Duke” has his heart set on entering Bentley’s next fall, and then the business world will be his next stop. Peter Martin Flaherty Commercial Course History Circle; Tan Sigma, Interclass Baseball; Athlet ic Association Kind hearted, unselfish, and ambitious to be a business man, Peter works for his uncle afternoons, and one can see his big smile when he’s be- hind the wheel of Ruane’s truck. Although a working boy, he has plenty of time for pleasure, too. He loves all spox-ts and attends all the school games, dances and shows, and is a favorite with the opposite sex. His favorite subject, incidentally, was Bookkeeping, and he intends to go to college next year, and take up a Business Administration course. Wherever he goes, the class of ’38 wishes him all the success in the world. Kathryn Dundas Helen Durkin Ronald Duvarney Peter Flaherty

Leocutiia Donat John Donnelly Stanley Duchnowski Thomas Duffy Leocadia Donat Commercial Course History Cirdc: Athletic Association: Bulletin Bonn Leocadia is one of the girls to graduate this June. She has completed her four year Commercial Course and we judge from the interest she has shown in her studies that she will be successful in a commercial field. We have proof of this when we learn that she was secretary to the Shorthand Teacher in her Senior year, and typist for the school paper. Being unde- cided in her plans for the future, we are in doubt as to her future work, but we are not in doubt that she will succeed in whatever she attempts. John Joseph Donnelly College Course Football: Tan Sigma: History Circle Now let us introduce one of the most popular boys in the school whose winning smile and cheerful greeting is well known by all his classmates. Although “Amber’ - never got hot and bothered over studies, and is seldom seen taking a book home, he always manages to make the grade. He played Varsity Football and was an important factor in winning the Midland League Football Championship of ’38. Jack has not yet decided what he will do after his graduation, but whatever it is we are all cheering for him. Stanley George Dlchnowski Commercial Course Tail Sigma: History Circle f| Here we meet a reserved boy with a pleasant smile and winning per- sonality. “Tanny” is a modest chap who never interferes in other people’s business. Stanley has chosen a position where he may be at all times in contact with business and pleasure. Every afternoon you can see him smiling over the counter of his father’s grocery store. Although he didn’t participate in athletics, he was always a rooter and attended all High School games. At the present time, “Tanny” is uncertain what he intends to do in the future, but we know that he will succeed in whatever he undertakes. Thomas Joseph Dleey College Course Tan Sigma History Circle: Ircnc i Club: Senior Show. Prom. Comm. A. A. Although Tom, is one of our most romantically inclined members, he i- also an all around good fellow. He remained somewhat in the back- ground during his first three years, but more than made up for it this year. Much of his popularity is due to the fact that he has an unquenchable sense of humor. Those who saw him in the Senior show know of his ability as an actor. At the present t i m ■■ he is undecided which institution of higher learning he will attend, but wherever he goes we feel sure that he will make his fellow classmates at (’. H. S. proud of him. 24

Gerald Flynn Mary Freel Anna Freeman Audrey Garber Gerald I. Flynn Commercial Course Prom. Committee : History Circle: A. A. Although “Jerry seems to have an inherent dislike for the spotlight, he is known to everyone, and spends his recesses entertaining his friends, who seek relaxation after their arduous toil of the morning. Most of us are familiar with Jerry ' s wit, but not all of us are familiar with his more serious side. His work, in school ami out, is always complete, neat anil original, which qualities are sure to win him success in the busi- ness world he plans to enter. Gerald waited until his Senior year to run for an office. Then, as a surprise to himself, but no one else, he was elected Treasurer of our History Circle. Here’s luck from ’38, Jerry. Mary Elizabeth Freel Commercial Course History Circle: Prom. Committee, ,t. A. The first impression one gets of Mary is that she is quiet, but given a chance she will soon dispel any such illusions. Mary’s pleasing personality makes her a real chum and it’s hard to find a more likeable pal. She has always helped support school activities, both games and socials. One hardly mentions Mary without echoing “Kaddy” and “Anna.” Her excellence in Bookkeeping leads us to believe that the future will find her holding a good position. Whatever the future years may hold, we want Mary to know that her Class of ‘38 will be rooting for her. Anna Mary Freeman Normal Course History Circle: Prom. Committee : luitho Keene: Cheerleader ' yy : I. A. Now we give you one of our cheerleaders, Anna. She is popular with everyone because she has a very enchanting smile and pleasing personality and can seldom be found at home. Anna attends all the social functions of the school and we know of no person who enjoys them more. A loyal sup- porter of the teams, Anna has led many a spectator in a rousing cheer. Anna’s ambition is to b a nurse. We all feel that when she dons her white uniform she will be a great success because of her sunny disposition and witty remarks. Audrey Florence Garber College Course trench Chih, History Circle: Prom. Committee: Minstrel Show i: A. A. Now once more before you is the proof that the old saying “Gentlemen prefer blondes” still goes. Early in life, “Aud” dedicated herself to two things love of a good time and love of friends. Let us assure you she has gained both, along with numerous testimonials. Audrey is one of a trium- virate at school and play, for we never see her without “Skip” Salmon and “Hick” Radley. “Aud’s” future is as yet undecided but we know that what- ever she undertakes she will make a success of it. So “Au revoir” and the best of luck from the Class of “38”. 26
