The Class of 1939 Wishes to take this opportunity to thank Miss Ellen M. Mclntyre, our Class Advisor, for the many services she rendered so unsellishly and graciously. -. Y Carpe Diem F9 H Tribute Z0 the Family It is hard to put into a few words our deep appreciation of the interest, willingness, and ability of our faculty. It is they who have guided us through four years of study, and prepared us for the future. They have worked hard, and they have per- formed their d.1ty well. They have taught us many things and have proven themselves true friends of 1939. Many a frown was turned into a smile by the patience of one another of these men and women. Our hopes and ambitions were never abusedg instead they were encouraged. When our energies and patience were exhausted, our teachers took over the burden to put us back on the right path-expecting neither praise, nor thanks. If at any time, we have shown a lack of appreciation, or have complained, or caused trouble, we hope they will accept our sincere apologies now. It has only dawned on us of late that everything about which we complained was done entirely in our own behalf. Our graduation is the result of their faithful training, their ceaseless and untiring efforts and we want them to know that we are indeed grateful. May the coming years be fruitful ones for our faculty. N t jig af f ! I'.Hl'.N S. Cm-m llllll-01' Al11tlu'nmli1'.f Ioxm F.

John is no sissy, task anyone who played football against himj. Although John is of the quiet, conservative type, he has made many friends while in Clinton High. Though he seldom bothers carrying books home, he still manages to get good marks. His favorite pastime is arguing with his pal Nuggie. He is undecided as to what he will do in the future, but we are sure that his quiet and friendly manner will carry him far in any vocation which he may choose. Good luck, John! DOROTHY ALZAPIEDI COMMERCIAL COURSE History Circle It is unnecessary to introduce Dot, one of the Greeley Hill gang. Dot was a very good cheerleader last Fall and led the football fans with much enthusiasm. At every social event Dot could be seen dressed to perfection and always with a partner. Appearances are deceiving, for Dot, although she looks quiet, is full of pep and fun. Dot is always willing to lend a helping hand to anyone in distress. Dot's plans for the future include a school for interior decorating where we are sure she will succeed. Loads of luck and success from the class of '39, Dot. HELEN ALZAPIEDI COMMERCIAL COURSE History Circle Honey is a fun-loving young lady who is as popular with one sex as with the other. You are sure to find her at every dance, and never is she a wallflower. Her winning smile and pleasing personality are decided assets. She is always seen with the gang from Greeley Hill, no matter where she goes. Hon loves all outdoor sports, is good at every one of them, and you could find her cheering loudly at every football game. Helen hasn't as yet decided upon her future, but here is luck from the class of '39. GEORGIANNA ANASTAS COMMERCIAL Counsn History Circle, Class Book Staff Well, look who's here! We come now to, Georgianna, a girl who needs no introduction. When we think of Gea , we recall a sunny disposition, a pleasing personality, a lovable nature, and a willingness to help whenever necessary. Well attended, Gea may be seen at all socials and dances. She was fortunate enough to spend a month's vacation at Miami Beach, Florida, and although she came back several shades darker we still recognized our KCGeaY!. Lessons never seem to bother Gea but she always manages to get testimonials. The class of 1939 wishes her success and happiness in what- ever profession she chooses. PAULINE AGNES BAHOSH COMMERCIAL COURSE French Club, History Circle, Sophomore French Club Polly has always been one of the first to enter our school building. In her opinion, one of the worst catastrophies that could befall her would be a tardy mark. During the first three years in our Alma Mater, Polly was one of the most demure students of '39. Possessed of natural reserve and an undem- onstrative manner, she was as communicative as a Sphinx. However, senior year finds her more talkative, and much whispered conversation was carried on with fellow members of the C. D. S. Club. Studies were Polly's forte and her creditable standing augurs well for the future. ' 14 saggy CATHERINE BALL L COMMERCIAL COURSE History Circle Catherine is one of the most capable and likeable girls in our class. It can be safely said that she will never be lacking in loyal friends, because she is always willing to do her part in helping others. Don't let the above description give you the idea that Kay is a meek, prim, and quiet person. On the contrary, she can be, and very often is, just the opposite. She is a staunch supporter of all the activities C. H. S. undertakes. Catherine intends to further her education in a business school, and we know she will be successful in carving a career for herself. EVA BATTISTA COMMERCIAL COURSE History Circle, Bulletin Board, Jr. Prom. Comm. Eva is the girl with the lovely black hair, fine personality, and a smile that goes a long way. Because of this smile, she has won the admiration and friendship of all her classmates. With her keen interest in all school activities, and her many social obligations, she is always busy. Her favorite hobbies are roller skating and dancing. Though studying has no charms for Spec , she always manages to get a few testies each quarter. Spec intends to lend a ray of cheer to some secretarial school next year, and with a personality and disposition such as Spec's -need we say more? Best of luck, Eva ARTHUR BAUM GENERAL COURSE History Circle, Tau Sigma Ikey , although he has been with us for four years, still has as much joie de vivre as a freshman, perhaps because he is a senior in good standing. Although he never achieved a perfect attendance record, neither was he a regular member of Mr. Williamson's list of truants, at least he never served time . Arthur is also known as one of the best spit ball throwers in the school, Room 6 being his favorite battleground. Ikey's social life seems to center about the Burditt Hill section, but occasionally, his infectious smile and head of enviable straw-colored hair may be seen at the high school shows. Best of luck from '39. FLORIAN BEDNARDCYZK GENERAL Counsr History Circle, Tau Sigma Whitey is the Boake Carter of the class, talking being his favorite pastime, as we can testify. Ouchl My ears are burning. When he takes time out from exercising his vocabulary, Florian can be seen playing foot- ball or ski-jumping. Flo is by no means a testimonial pupil, yet he manages to get by with plenty to spare. The glad hand of Whitey is often extended to his classmates and in future days he hopes, as we all do, to succeed Mr. Roosevelt in the White House. Good luck, Florian, we hope you make it! MICHAEL BERRY GENERAL COURSE History Circle, Tau Sigma Michael is undoubtedly Clinton High's foremost Sir Isaac Walton. Al's love of field and stream is known to all his classmates, and it is not an uncommon sight to see him and his dog leisurely wending their way along the banks of the rivers and streams in Clinton's wooded sections. Al's fondness for the great outdoors sets the keynote for his per- sonality. He has a likeable voice and a wide infectious grin which his classe- mates will always remember. Marks never worried him because if he chose to apply himself to the task of learning a difficult lesson, the results were sure to be most favorable. Best of luck, Al, from '39. 15 GEORGE BODAH GENERAL COURSE Senior Dramatics, Hiatory Circle, Tau Sigma George, one of the shining lights of '39, was a frequent visitor to the neighboring town of Worcester where he became a noteworthy jitterbug. Without a doubt, he is the best male dancer in our class. Jumbo made his stage debut this winter in the Christmas Show and proved to be one of the stars of the play. Although he never pulled down the highest marks in the class, George always managed to get by. As yet George has not decided what he will do after graduation, but wherever he goes the best wishes of the class of '39 go with him. FRANCES BOWSER COMMERCIAL COURSE History Circle Frances is one of the tall, dignified seniors, dignified not in name only. One can not think of Frances without recalling her warmth and natural charm of manner. While she was never spoken to for deportment, neither was she a Prudy Prim. One of Frances' favorite amusements is the movies and many a bag of candy did she and her chum Rae consume while watching the antics of the stars. Fran is also an accomplished chauffeur, you notice we do not say driver, for a chauffeur is one who transports Others and Frances was always generous with her car. To you, Fran, go the best wishes of '39. PAUL BRADLEY COLLEGE COURSE History Circle, Tau Sigma, Senior Football Club, Photography Club In the classroom, a studentg outside, a pal, on the gridiron, a star. Though Clinton High may regret the loss of Paul Bradley, there are those who have met him in combat on the football field who are not anxious to renew such a meeting. We refer you to that Hudson High floodlight game for proof. When in a few years it becomes necessary to solve the problem of restoring destroyed forests, the government will be fortunate to be able to fall back on such a dependable person as Paul, who at that time, if present plans materialize, will be a distinguished graduate of the Syracuse University School of Forestry. JOSEPH BRESCIA COMMERCIAL COURSE History Circle Joe is one of the greatest athletes the Acre has yet produced. He played on the football team for two years and starred in baseball during his sophomore, junior, and senior years achieving an enviable record. Because of his arresting personality and dependability, Joe made many friends during his four years in C. H. S. He plans to further his education at Worcester Trade School, where we feel sure that he will make as great a name for himself on the athletic field and in the classroom as he did in C. H. S. Best wishes from the class of '39, Joe. JEAN COLLEGE COURSE History Circle A very pretty and familiar face is that of Jean Brett who came to us from Sterling in -her sophomore year. Jean has a pleasant word for everyone and is frequently seen studying at recess, which reminds us that The is in good standing with her teachers because she always knows her essons. Any bright sunnny afternoon Jean can be seen walking with her in- separable friends, Jean Crothers and Ella Day. Jean is planning to attend a school of Domestic Arts, and we wish her prosperity and success as she joins the ranks of the alumni. Best of luck, Jean. 16 KATHERINE BURGOYNE COMMERCIAL COURSE History Circle Katherine by her winning smile and delightful personality gained many friends among the undergraduates as well as in her own class. At first glance she may appear to be quiet and reserved, but she is jolly, always laughing, dependable, fond of sports, and always present at football games. Caddie's daily companions are Caddie Ball and Betty Gutman with whom she can be seen whispering about the corridors in the senior manner. She is a great lover of dancing and attends all our social functions. Kay plans to go to business school, and later become her dad's secre- tary, and we know she will be successful. DOROTHY MARGARET BURGWINKLE COMMERCIAL Counsa History Circle, Class Book Staff, Bulletin Board Staff, Prom. Committee Witty and gay, Dorothy has made a record for the coming classes. Everyone who knows her likes her. Her seemingly endless supply of anecdotes makes her a popular member of one of our foremost clubs, for wherever Dorothy is, there you will find laughter. The many books that passed through Winkie's hands never made a very profound impression, but she always walked smilingly into class and bravely faced the little red book. Mr. McSherry tells us that Dot actually cooked her experiments, and frequently addressed him as Mr. Chemistry. Good luck, Dot, the best wishcs of 39 go with you. ELSIE BURK COMMERCIAL COURSE History Circle, Clrlssbook Staff, Bulletin Board Staff, Prom Committee Now we come to one of the most friendly and light-hearted girls in our class. Elsie has an amiable disposition and a delightful sense of humour. Besides personality, Elsie has been endowed with beauty, brains, and artistic ability. She ranks among the highest in our class, excelling in the particularly difficult subject of Bookkeeping. She has a flair for drawing, a musical ear, and business ability. Despite all these activities, Elsie is never too busy to oblige anyone who makes a request of her. With her talents and charm of manner, Elsie should reach the pinnacle of success. EILEEN BURKE NORMAL Counss History Circle Whenever you hear loud and enthusiastic cheering at the Clinton High School football games, you may be sure Burkie is back of it all. The cheering section of many a game would have been an utter failure, if it had not been for her lively assistance. No matter what the difiiculty, one could always depend on Eileen to come through. To all who have come in contact with her, she has brought cheer and comradeship. Eileen would like to attend Forsyth in the Fall. where she might realize her ambition of becoming a dental hygienist. With her admirable qualities, we are more than confident of her success. CELIA BURTON COMMERCIAL CoURsE History Circle Celia is one of the most popular members of the Class of '39. She has won a large circle of friends because of her pleasing personality and un- usual pulchritude. Celia managed at least one testimonial each quarter, although she never stayed home and studied when something more amusing could be done. This charming young lady has become famous in our high school for her lovely clothes which she wears to such advantage. Celia plans to be a hairdresser and with her ability and charming perslonality she is bound to succeed, so we predict a very promising future for er. ' 17 MARION CAMPBELL GENERAL COURSE History Circle Whenever we heard a gay laugh and a loud thumping on the stairs we knew it was Marion trying to beat the bell. Marion's advent was waited impatiently by many, for her generosity with her homework, particularly Algebra, was a byword. Marion was an ardent sports fan, more than willing to do her bit in cheering the home team. Marion plans to become a doctor and with her ability, initiative, and charming personality we know she will will accomplish her purpose. As she passes along the road to success, we wish her the best of luck. ANTONIO CARDOMONI COMMERCIAL COURSE History Circle, Tau Sigma Two reasons why Tony is so highly valued as a companion and class- mate are his quick wit and ready quips. It doesn't take long for Tony to make any grouch turn up the corners of his mouth and smile, for Tony easily sees the funny side of things. Tony confined his activities to sports and was always a popular member of Clinton High's teams. As an athlete he was noted for his complete co- operation and enthusiastic support. Tony has not made known any ambitions he may have, but he has qualities which will make him welcome anywhere. WINIFRED CASEY COLLEGE COURSE History Circle, Sophomore French Club, Class Book Staff Petite, pert, and pretty are the adjectives that best describe Winifred. A sunny disposition, a pleasing personality, and a jovial nature have won her scores of friends from mighty senior to lowly freshman. Win is the possessor of a charming speaking voice which, with her personality, helped her to attain parts in various shows. Win can trip the light fantastic with the best of the trippe1's and no social event is complete without her. Winifred hasn't quite decided what steps she will take toward her career, but whatever she does will be a credit to the class of '39, So we say, Best of luck, Win . MARY CASSIDY COLLEGE COURSE History Circle, Photography Club, S1'niorShoiu, Thanksgiving Revue 1, 4, Class ,Book Staff . Charming personality, artistic ability, and a constant smile have conspired to make Mary one of the most prominent and popular members of our class. A more appropriate introduction might have been, Intro- ducing the prima donna of our class, for Mary's beautiful voice has con- tributed largely to the success of all our shows, and her fine dramatic ability was displayed in our Senior Show. Talent and personality usually do not accompany each other, but not so in Mary's case, for her popularity is showp by the fact that she was elected Secretary of our sophomore class. We bid her farewell, with an assurance of success. JESSIE CHASE NORMAL Counsm History Circle Jessie hails from the so-called rural section of the town, Rigby Road. Her husky cheering voice is very active at the football games, for Jessie is an ardent follower of C. H. S. sports fnot to mention why.J In the corridors she is a sociable, yet quiet classmate, but socially she is very gay. Jessie was one of the talented members of our Junior Prom Committee, and has been active in all school activities. She hopes to enter Clinton Hospital to try her hand at nursing, and '39 wishes her all success in her chosen profession. 18 f . GEORGIA CHIAMIS COMMERCIAL COURSE History Circle Willing to help, eager to make friends, delightful to know-that's Georgia whose gay remarks enliven many a group. Georgie is also a wizard at composing poems and little ditties, which rouse our admiration, but which she modestly attributes to inspiration. We have often heard of the Three Musketeers but in this instance, it is the Four Musketeers, Poppy, Ethel, Mary, and Georgia being in- separable. Georgia's ambition is to become an efficient Stenog and we know she will be a success in her chosen field. Best wishes from the class of '39, Georgia. MARY CHIAVARIS COMMERCIAL COURSE History Circle, Class Book Staff, Senior Show Feast your eyes upon the leading lady of our Senior Show. Although inexperienced in dramatics, Mary, because of her good looks and personality, won the coveted honor this year. ' She has always been one of the leading vocalists in our class, but her dramatic talent was 11ot discovered until her senior year. The old adage of beautiful but dumb doesn't apply to Mary, who has always been one of the high ranking students of the class. Wherever Mary decides to go to continue her education, we know that she will become a great success. Best wishes from the class of '39 are yours, Mary. PHYLLIS CLEARY COMMERCIAL COURSE History Circle Phyllis is a pretty brunette, quiet, sweet, lady-like. Her picture will vouch for the adjective pretty, and a half hour in her company will vouch for the other characteristics. During her four years in Clinton High School, FeFe has very easily managed to keep in the social whirl and never lacked admirers. However, Phyllis seems to th1'ill more to military music than most of us for one of her many admirers is a cadet at West Point. Phyllis is interested in Stenography and plans to further her education along that line. As she leaves, the class of '39 wishes her all the luck in the world. ANN COBB COLLEGE COURSE French Club, Bulletin Board, Orchestra Photo ra Jh lub Intc' las , y 1 11 C , wc s Dramatics 1, 3, Minstrel Show 1, History Circle, Honorary Member of Historical Society and Womcrfs Club Ann is one of the most outstanding girls in our school, being noted for her poise, personality, and versatility. Her ability as an actress was evidenced by her participation in Fresh- man and Senior Inter-class Dramatics. Ann played both piano and violin in the Orchestra, did some excellent crayon portraits, found time to be an officer in the Senior Scouts, served as an editor of the Bulletin Board and withal managed to graduate with high honors. Ann plans to enter Radcliffe, where we predict for her many friends and much success. Good luck, Ann. JERRY COCCHIOLA COLLEGE COURSE Tau Sigma, History Circle Next let us introduce Jerry, a modest, unassuming boy, whose name often appears on the General Excellence list. But don't get the impression that Jerry spent all his time studying. Far from it! He is known to be quite an athlete in his own district, and attends all C. H. S. games and socials. Because of his willingness to help others and his sense of humor, Jerry is one of the best liked boys in the class. Jerry is undecided as to the future, but because of the ability and perseverance that he showed in school. we feel sure that he will succeed and be a credit to the class of '39. 19 GERALDINE MARY COGSWELL COMMERCIAL Counsn Sophomore French Club, Jr. Prom. Committee, Bulletin Board, Dramatics, History Circle, Class Book Staf, A. A. And this is Geraldine, known to everyone, even our august teachers, as Gerry. Gerry is one of our most versatile classmates-Scouting, office work, class work, hiking, cycling, and that mysterious C. D. S. Club being some of her interests. One wonders how she managed to do so much in one day. Yet, she found time to take a prominent part in our Junior play, and we shall never forget Daisy of the Thanksgiving Revue. h Gerry has decided upon a future at the Katharine Gibbs School and Judging by the number of testies that follow her name, a brilliant career surely awaits her. ROY COLLINS COMMERCIAL Counsm History Circle, Tau Sigma Roy is a quiet boy with a pleasant smile and a winning way. Because of his engaging manner he has won himself a place of distinction among his classmates. Although he was never known to burn the midnight oil, he always managed to make the grade. Roy was interested in sports and school activities, but his rural life occupied him outside of school. However. whenever an evening affair was being conducted Roy would make his appearance after he had milked the cows, of course. As yet he hasn't any plans for the future, but whatever he undertakes, the class of '39 wishes him luck. JOHN CONNELLY COMMERCIAL Counsa Tau Sigma, History Circle, Football Club Naturally quiet and good natured, John has impressed us as a genial and jolly good fellow . When it comes to sports, who do you think could carry on a conversa- tion with a sports authority? Yes, that's right, none other than John. He has been active in high school sports for the past few years, being manager of the baseball, football, and basketball teams, and due to his interest and knowledge of them, we may, in days to come, see him as a sports authority. The Class of '39 wishes you the best of luck, John, in the unknown days that follow Commencement. JEAN CROTHERS GENERAL COURSE History Circle Jean, who is known for her incessant line of chatter, has a winning personality and a great many friends. Though she does not take an active part in school activities, she is always interested in our doings. Those attending Miss Greenwood's recitals have been fortunate enough to hear Jean's lovely soprano voice. Besides her cultural activities she is also very fond of sports indulging in tennis and swimming during the summer months. As far as we know. Jean has not made any plans for the futureg but we are sure that whatever she attempts to do, it will be done well. KIERAN CULLITON COLLEGE COURSE . History Circle, Tau Sigma, Class Book Staff The last of the Cullitons, Kieran is the wildest member of the whole class. He is as witty as Charlie McCarthy, as peppery as Mayor Kane of Woburn, and as intelligent as Joe Kennedy. It has been known that his pet love is-, guess what? Girls, of course, as he is quite a young Romeo. But all kidding aside, Gully is a real scholar, rattling off testimonials with no trouble at all. Next year it will be Harvard for this cut up, and his days of revelry will come to an end in favor of a long four years of study. Let's see you go to town, Kieran! 20 1 ELLA DAY ' COMMERCIAL Couasa History Circle Ella is favored by a so-called sunshine personality , for she is one of the cheeriest girls of our class. Ella always has a smile and a friendly word for everyone. She hails from the little town of Bolton, and goes back and forth daily. In her studies she is tops. It seems those good marks just come naturally to her. When she grows up , Ella wants to be an efficient secretary. We are sure she will succeed in this field, and if the good wishes of her classmates are of any help, she is a success already. CLAIRE DE BLOIS COMMERCIAL CoURsE History Circle A happy smile, and a laughing heart are two of the many lovable qualities that grace our Claire. Claire is a member of the C. D. S. Club, and although she is always on the testimonial list she is never unable to enjoy the many social activities of her club and school. Claire entered this great institution of learning with the idea of be- coming an able secretary for some deserving business man and she is now nearing that goal. We wish Claire happiness and know she will be a success in her chosen profession. . PHYLLIS DICKSON COLLEGE Coimsr: History Circle, French Club, Varsity Basketball, Junior Prom. Committee, Class Book Staff, Bulletin Board Stab' We come now to Phil , envied possessor of the most beautiful hands in the senior class. Her happy-go-lucky manner has accompanied her all during her four years in high school, during which she has participated in both school and class activities. Phil's excellent work on the Girls' basketball team is known to all. Being one of the top scorers, she aided her team in many a victory. Phyllis plans to enter Massachusetts State College in the Fall and should she do as well there as she has here, we're sure her future will prove a huge success. MARJORIE DIPPOLD GENERAL COURSE History Circle Margie is one of our most popular senior girls. Though not over- whelmingly brilliant, Margie always managed to get along very well- and no one in Period E. U. S. History will ever forget her bluliing Mr. O'Toole, much to his dismay. Margie is active socially, no affair being complete without her. Margie can be seen with her constant P. P. breezing through town almost every night I Margie has not quite decided what path of life she will follow, but with her pleasing personality, wit, and ability, Margie can't help but succeed. RAYMOND DOBECK COMMERCIAL COURSE Tau Sigma, History Circle fTreas.j Student Council This year one more of the Germantown boys is leaving the portals of Clinton High. Ray Dobeck, although not a star athlete like his brother, Joe, was more active in the social affairs of the school, attending most of the school shows and dances. ' Ray spends most of his spare time working in a Germantown candy store or driving the family car around to make sure it doesn't get rusty. Now that the warm weather is setting in, you will be able to see Ray chasing a golf ball around Mountain View golf course where he can do the course in a few strokes over par. Good luck, Ray. 21 CARL DORFMAN GENERAL COURSE Tau Sigma, History Circle, Basketball Squad One of the strong silent men of the class is Carl Dorfman who can be seen at least twice a week purchasing a ticket to the Strand. Probably no pupil in the school takes his studies more seriously than Carl, but none the less he found time to be a real sharp shooter on the basketball team. Carl's quiet unassuming manner makes him something of a mystery man, but we've managed to learn that his chief ambition is to become a Certified Public Accountant. If he labors only half as hard in the future as he has to date, we are sure that he will achieve his goal. GEORGE DONNELLY COLLEGE COURSE Tau Sigma, History Circle, French Club, Orchestra, Bulletin Board, Class Book Staff, Sr. Show, Sr. Inter-Class, Prom. Committee, Sophomore French Club George is one of the leading musicians and actors of this class. He has given proof of his talent as a musician and an actor in almost every high school show produced during his four years at C. H. S. He has even organized his own orchestra, the well-known Melodiers. Everyone is impressed with his pleasing personality and business-like manner. George is planning to attend the New England Conservatory of Music in Boston where we are sure his natural talents and diligence will insure his success. The entire class of 1939 sincerely wishes him the best of luck. MARY DOWD COLLEGE COURSE History Circle, French Club, Bulletin Board Mary, the little girl with the big smile, may be one of the tiniest in the class of '39, but she is also the possessor of an unusually sunny disposition. Mary was very quiet during her first three years at Clinton High, but in her senior year she decided to let everyone know she was around. Mary is the object of a great deal of envy both because of her testi- monial rating and her popularity. She plans to go to Northeastern Uni- versity and we are sure that a C0-ed institution is just the place for her. Good luck, Mary! EDWARD DUCHNOWSKI . GENERAL COURSE History Circle Introducing one of our quiet and serious students, Eddie, who manages to uphold his scholastic standing, in spite of the fact that his many extra- curricular activities take up most of his time. Although interested in sports more than social events, Eddie was unable to take an active part in athletics because of his clerking at a local grocery store. For the future Eddie's interests are wholly centered in the business field. His quiet charm of manner, his perseverance and practical experience undoubtedly will enable him to attain success. Good luck and best wishes from '39, Eddie. MARGARET MARY DUFFY NORMAL COURSE History Circle, Class Book Staff . Margaret appears to be rather a quiet girl, but when you know her your opinion will change. Don't be deceived if you see her only in class, for she is not always so demure. Margaret has a capacity for diligent study, is a conscientious student, and has developed a certain quiet assurance. Us there any quality lacking to make the ideal young lady?J Duff is a true friend, an excellent.student, and a good sport, and the class of '39 wishes her the best of luck in her chosen profession- that of a Beauty Expert. 22 HARRY DUPREY GENERAL COURSE Tau Sigma, History Circle Harry is undoubtedly the problem child of the class of 1939. His jovial nature cost him many trips to the office where his winning personality stood him in good stead with the boss . Socially, Harry was very prominent and it was not an uncommon sight to see him and a m-ember of the opposite sex gliding by in Harry's car which he affectionately called his Blue Streak . Harry won a letter in Football in his senior year, although it was his first attempt at any varsity sport. The class of '39 sincerely wishes him the best of luck. JOSEPH ELIA COMMERCIAL CoURsE History Circle, Tau Sigma With his quiet pleasing personality, Joseph has made many friends since he came to C. H. S. He never has very much to say but what he says is usually very wisely spoken. His opinion in any matter is highly respected by his friends. Joe's humorous pranks in the Hall will never be forgotten by his class- mates. Although not excelling in any particular subject, he manages to hold his own in all he has undertaken. Joe hasn't yet come to a decision as to his future plans, but we are confident that no matter what profession he chooses, he will be successful. PRUDENCE FALKINS GENERAL CoURsE History Circle Prudy, a dark-haired, brown-eyed damsel from Parker Street is a mem- ber of the fair sex in our class. She's a lover of all outdoor sports, es- pecially bike riding, although she excels in swimming and diving. , She is also a staunch supporter of all class activities, and is always at the games rooting for the home team. Marks don't seem to worry her much, but she does manage to get by in all her studies. Although her plans for the future are indefinite we know she will be successful. The class of '39 wishes you all the luck in the world, Prudy. MARY FLANAGAN COMMERCIAL COURSE French Club, History Circle, Bulletin Board, Junior Prom Committee, Class Ring Committee, Class Secretary We now introduce one-half of that inseparable twosome of Mary and Ruthie. Through grammar school and high school they have been found together. Her ability to mix work and play made many friends for Mary. Phiddie's popularity is shown by her having been chosen class secretary for three years. As a student Phiddie was a plugger, and she deserved the best that could be given any hardworking member of the class. In the future, we see no failure for her and when our school days are never-to-be forgotten memories, we shall ever remember her winning smile and pesonality. Our loss is Simmons' gain. Au revoir, Mary. THOMAS FLANAGAN COMMERCIAL COURSE . History Circle, Tau Sigma Here is Tommy Flannagan one of the most versatile young men ever to emerge from the North End. i . Being an ardent sports enthusiastic, he has cheered many a victorious Clinton team while his chattering teeth rapped out a tune that would make Gene Krupa's Ode to a Jitter Bug sound like the Blue Danube. Tom made quite a splash in Clinton High's social whirl pool, hardly a class function failing to be graced by his presence. With his winning smile, and dashing personality, Tommy should go far in years to come, and the class of '39 sincerely wishes him the best of luck. 23 JAMES PERRY FRASER TECHNICAL COURSE History Circle, Tau Sigma, Class Book Staff Perry is Clinton's High's mathematical genius who, it is hinted, would rather solve difficult problems in mathematics than swim in Clinton High's social whirlpool. Perry's last two summers have been spent at Fort Devens where he was a corporal in the C. M. T. C. unit, and Where he distinguished himself by winning many coveted awards. Perry's ability to master difficult situations was well proven in his freshman year, when, despite the handicap of a broken leg, he managed to remain near the top of his class through the entire year. The class of '39 feels sure that Dame Fortune will smile on Perry in the future. RICHARD FULLER TECHNICAL COURSE Dick, the guitar player of the Fuller Quintet, is one of those fortunate individuals possessing the ability and the determination to excel in any- thing he undertakes. His sense of humor and sparkling personality have made him a general favorite with all. We know that graduation from High School will not mean the end of him scholastically, but that he will attend some technical school to polish off his successful completion of the Technical Course at Clinton High. Somehow, Dick cannot be imagined as being other than at the top of whatever field he chances to enter. ELEANOR FURPHY COMMERCIAL Couasa History Circle, Bulletin Board Eleanor is one of the prominent members of the Bulletin Board. She has given many a laugh to both her fellow classmates and the under- graduates with her amusing short stories. A great deal of the Bulletin Board's popularity may be said, without exaggeration, to depend upon Eleanor's journalistic ability. This small, slender and vivacious girl has acquired a host of friends in both sexes. She has provided many a rollicking hour's entertainment in the back division of the Study Hall. Her pleasing personality and quick Wit will aid her in her ambition to become a journalist. Here's to success, Eleanor! WILLIAM GADOMSKI COLLEGE COURSE History Circle, French Club Bill is one of the quietest members of our class. He reverses the adage of Half-jest and whole earnest , for his earnest remarks are usually greeted with general hilarity. He has won distinction in most of his classes, especially in Physics and Mathematics. Bill spent one summer with the C. C. C. and his descriptions of activities at camp are interesting, and educational. Bill revels in Macbeth and Caesar and probably has a better in- sight into classical literature than any other member of the class. His themes in English IV were always greeted with favorable criticism and were enjoyed by the entire class. C. H. S. wishes you the best of luck, Bill. ROSE GARAFOLI COMMERCIAL Counse History Circle, Bulletin Board B. Period! The click of heels along the corridorg a jerk at the door and Rose enters! Fortune and misfortune-the former for us and the latter for 1938, when R.ose's course was interrupted by an injury to her ankle during her junior year. Small in size, Rose envies the tall ones but what she lacks in stature is made up in cheerfulness and good nature. She has made many friends and always stands ready to lend a helping hand and to do her part for our class. We know that this spirit will carry her far toward success when she leaves Clinton High. 24 aww- ef + RUTH GARDNER GENERAL Couasa Well, Well, if it isn't our own C. H. S. songbird! Ruth needs no intro- duction, for there isn't a person in the whole High School who has not heard her sing. Either in the corridors or on the street, you'll know by listening to her hearty laugh that Gardie is enjoying life. Whether she has inclinations toward nursing, teaching, or bookkeeping, we don't know, for she has not made her future plans known to us. But we do know what to expect from someone with as much determination and optimism as this young lady. Lots of luck from the class of '39, Ruth! ETHEL GIACOUMIS COMMERCIAL Couasa History Circle ' Now we turn our gaze upon one who possesses a kind heart and who is always ready, willing, and able to help. Although a new comer who joined our class in her senior year, Ethel didn't have any trouble in gaining friends among her classmates. Her one great ambition in lite is to become a commercial designer and those who have seen her drawings will agree that her work is beyond the stage of an amateur. She expects to continue and improve her skill as a designer at some art school. In bidding her farewell, the class of '39 wishes her the best luck. RAYMOND GLEASON GENERAL Couasa Tau Sigma, History Circle Ready, willing, and able-these three Words aptly describe Ray. He was invariably in the midst of school activities, and although he didn't engage actively in sports, he could always be seen cheering for the various C. H. S. teams. Ray is the kind of friend we all like, one we can always depend on to keep us in a cheerful mood. He is also one of the brightest pupils in the class of '39, his name appearing often on the General Excellence list. Ray is still undecided as to the future. but the class of '39 knows that he will succeed in whatever vocation he chooses. BARBARA GRADY COLLEGE COURSE Soph. and Junior Vice-President, French Club Vice-President, History Circle, Honorary Member of Clinton Wo-men's Club, Class Book Staff, Athletic Ass'n, Junior Prom. Committee, Bulletin Board, Student Council The most tangible evidence of Babsie's popularity and ability is the fact that she was our sophomore and junior vice-president. During our freshman year, Barbara became known as the girl who never sat out any dances. She seems to be an example of the perfectly balanced high school student-socially perfect and, more important, scholastically outstanding. Although we hate to see her leave, all good things must come to an end, and Katharine Gibb's Secretarial School will be the better for our loss. Barbara leaves C. H. S. with the impression of personality, pep and popu- larity. All in all, she's just right. MARY GRADY NORMAL Counsa Sophomore, French Club, History Circle Mary, whose disposition added much to all C. H. S. activities, is the outdoor type and may be seen, summer or winter, taking up s ace and time at Coachlace. This accounts for her boasting a Senior Lili-2-Saving Emblem. Recess she always spent in Room 8 as one of the Chattering Four- some . Many times giggles could be heard echoing through the corridors, for she could usually find something to giggle over. Her talent for decorating contributed so much to the success of the '38 Prom that it is too bad Mary does not want to be an interior decora- tor, but she expects to do credit to '39 in Clinton Hospital. 25 , A. 1' FRANK GRALA GENERAL COURSE History Circle The merry twinkle in Frank's eye belies his solemn countenance and tells of his good nature and unusual sense of humour. Even if he does live out in the wild back hills of Berlin, he has proved himself a regular feller as the many friends he has made testify. Although Frankie never believed in burning the midnight oil studying, he managed to get by with marks of certificate grade. Frank hasn't decided yet what he will do following graduation, but whatever he does, or wherever he goes, he carries with him the best wishes of the class of '39. GENEVIEVE GUENTHER NORMA Basketball, Field Hockey Genevieve is a happy-go-lucky, carefree, outdoor girl, hailing from Burditt Hill. Gen goes in for horses in a big way. She Wouldn't trade her riding outfit for all the gowns and pretty dresses in the world, and would much rather go riding on her favorite horse than to a dance or a movie. This, how d 't ever, oesn make her any less popular. On the contrary, she has a host of friends in both sexes. In a few years, Genevieve will probably be a dentist's assistant as she is thinking very seriously of entering a dental school in the Fall. L COURSE CATHERINE HAMILTON COMMERCIAL CoURsE History Circle Quiet, friendly, dependable, that's Kay-whose personality and smile have won her the friendship of all her classmates. Sports interest her keenly, and she cheers with the rest of us at football games. Kay has proved herself a hard-working, conscientious student and is well liked by all her teachers. Those of us who are within the inner circle of Kay's friends appreciate her true character and realize that no one else could fill her place among us. Catherine's future is undecided as yet, but We know that whatever it may be she'll reach the top of the ladder of success. ELIZABETH MARY HAMILTON GENERAL COURSE History Circle, Orchestra,-1, 2, 3, 1, A Although Elizabeth is an extremely quiet individual, her pleasing per- sonality, her amiable disposition, and her willingness to help others have contributed to making her one of the most likeable girls in our class. Scotty isn't socially inclined, but she is one of the most prominent and capable members of the High School Orchestra. She is planning to go to Northfield College, where, we know, she will have no difficulty in making the grade because she has all the qualities necessary for success. BARBARA FRANCES HASTINGS I NORMAL Counsa History Circle Now the spotlight falls on -Barbara whose afternoons were given to comforting the patients in Dr. Duprey's office. Her occupation afforded time for study which perhaps accounted for her fine marks. She was a well known figure in every classroom, and whenever any- one wanted to know the answers, Barb was sure to be asked. She attended all the football games and had one of the lustiest voices in the cheering section. Barbara could also be seen at every high school show and dance enjoying herself to the utmost. Her ambition is to become a teacher, and we all know she will succeed. 26 - M. .1-5' i it ,, ,., 1, A 1 FE 'l'f'j,gQ41v.-'-'T-:filv T --,Jax H , .- 'ff MAE HENNIS COMMERCIAL COURSE History Circle Mae's sunny smile and cheery disposition have made her one of the most popular girls in the class. Whenever a helping hand is needed, Mae is always ready to give her aid. Very conscientious in her school work, she has acquired an enviable record during her four years at C. H. S. Although much of her time is taken up with her studies, she still manages to take an active interest in all school activities. As to the future Mae is undecided, but whatever she undertakes we know she will be successful and the class of '39 wishes her the best of luck. MARGARET P. HESTER COMMERCIAL COURSE History Circle, Class Book Staf, Junior Inter-Class, Senior Show Margaret is the personification of that rare combination of beauty and brains. Her generous personality is the reason why she has so many friends in the class of '39. She is a very versatile young lady, and outstanding among her many talents is her dramatic ability. Since she entered as a freshman, no school activity has been complete without her charming presence. Margaret was a loyal rooter at all the football games as well as the belle of many dances. Her future plans are incomplete, but we are sure that whatever she does she will make a success of it, and '39 wishes her the best of luck. ELIZABETH HOWARD Senior Show, Inter-Class IV, History Circle We now focus our attention on one of the sunniest girls in our class of '39, but don't let that sweet smile deceive you, because Bette is just as mischievous as any of our merrymakers, and wherever there's fun, there's Bette. That Bette has a flair for dramatics is proved by the numerour shows in which she participated, and who can forget her talent as an artist, Zvidyegced by her many attractive posters and contributions to the Bulletin oa . Whatever you decide to do in the future, Bette, you have the best wishes of the class of '39. ALBERT HREHA COLLEGE COURSE History Circle, Tau Sigma, Athletic Association Now as the spotlights turns, its rays fall on Bertie. Bertie will be remembered as one of the quiet boys of the class, but along with that quiet- ness, his friends will remember that he stood well in his studies. He has been a C. M. T. C. Student at Fort Devens. He is also a member of Company G 181st Inf., and wishes to matriculate at Norwich University, Vermont. V Here's a salute to one of our future army oiiicersl MARIE HYNES GENERAL COURSE History Circle We now introduce Marie, one of our petite and carefree classmates. Our first impression was that Marie was quiet, but after we became better acquainted she proved to be quite the opposite. Because Of her fine sense of humor, Marie always sees the funny side of things and she has brightened many otherwise dull hours with her gaiety and cheerfulness. She takes a great interest in all school activities and always con- tributes to their success. She hopes to become a beautician and we know she will succeed. Best of luck, Marie, from the class of '39. 27 EVA IACCOBUCCI COMMERCIAL COURSE French Club, History Circle Let us now introduce Eva, one of the quiet and unassuming members of our class. Her sunny disposition has won her a host of friends and although she says little, she appreciates a good joke and has a pleasant smile for everyone. Eva hails from the lofty peaks of the ever-famous Burditt Hill and is usually seen with the many friends she has made in that section. Although she has not definitely made up her mind about the future, Eva thinks she will become a beautician. Whatever she undertakes, we know she will be a success and the class of '39 wishes her the best of luck. EDWARD JABLONSKI GENERAL COURSE History Circle, Tau Sigma Here we have one of the more quiet and studious boys of '39. During the daily arguments held in the Hall at recess Eddie preferred to keep his opinions to himself, though he proved himself able to assert his rights when necessary. As a faithful student, Eddie has been able to get along without wor- rying too much. He has won the respect of his fellow students by his ability to keep cool in the face of a sharp statement. Since he .has been rather reticent we know very little of his future plans, but we sincerely hope that he has the greatest of success in his future undertakings. RACHEL M. JACKSON COMMERCIAL CoURsE History Circle, Field Hockey Let us now focus our attention on Rachel, one of the serious members of our class. Her seriousness, however, does not detract from her generous and kind manner. Rachel has achieved a fine scholastic record and is well liked by her classmates. . The interest Ray takes in all sports keeps her cheering at every C. H. S. game. As well as attending our school activities, Rachel was a great asset to the Field Hockey team. She hasn't made up her mind as to her future, but her classmates all know that she will be a credit to her class in whatever she undertakes. Good luck, Ray , from '39. RIZPAH JACKSON GENERAL COURSE History Circle Rizpah has a quiet, sweet disposition, accompanied by a keen sense of humor and a strong sense of duty. She, is an ardent supporter of Clinton High,S varsity sports, and seldom misses a game in which our school competes. The fact that her residence is in Berlin does not exclude her from any of the school's social functions. Despite her many activities, Rizpah's marks were always well above the average. The class of '39 sincerely wishes Rizpah the best of luck for the future. GRACE JOHNSON NORMAL CoURsE History Circle, Class Book Grace, one of our quieter senior girls, came to us from Connecticut in our sophomore year. At recess Grace is one half of that inseparable pair of Grace and Mary. Grace takes a great interest in all school activities and sports and may be seen at Coachlace Pond either Summer or Winter. Perhaps that is why she possesses a Senior Life Saving emblem and certificate, but this doesn't interfere with her studies for she always receives at least three testies . After graduation, Grace plans to attend Fitchburg State Teacher's College and become one of the modern school marms . Good luck, Grace, from '39! ' 28 is-, . , . - N v..- .. F . 'Y M-fJrJH'i'f? .f--- '- ELIZABETH JOYCE NORMAL COURSE History Circle I'm in a dancing mood is an almost perfect description of Betty Joyce. Betty usually attends all the C. H. S. dances where she is the envy of all the other girls while she demonstrates the latest and most intricate steps with great skill. Betty was chosen the best dancer in the class. She is also a great football fan, and spent much of her time cheering our football squad on to victory. Betty has visions of herself in a white cap and uniform taking patients' temperatures. The class of '39 wishes you success in your chosen profes- sion, Betty. ANN KENNY GENERAL COURSE Q History Circle Here we have the Happy-Go-Lucky girl of '39, loved by all fortunate enough to know her. Who comes popping around the corridor just as the last bell is about to ring and who gives you that big smile and Hi ? Ann, of course. Ken is a member of the C. D. S. club, and adds much fun to their meetings and social activities. During the skating season, Ken and her pal Dottie are to be seen at Coachlace Pond, which may account for Ann's being such a good skate , Best of luck, from '39, Ann. RITA KILCOYNE COMMERCIAL COURSE History Circle, Athletic Association We think Rita is one of the prettiest girls in our class, which, inci- dentally, seems to have more than its share of attractive damsels. She is very popular among the opposite sex, and it is said many a mas- culine heart was heard to break when the owner was not favored with one of Rita's infectious smiles. Without taking too much time from the social whirl, Rita managed to keep her marks well above the passing grade. Rita's pleasing personality will, we feel sure, carry her far in any profession she may choose to follow in the future. '39 sincerely wishes you the best of luck, Rita. THOMAS KILCOYNE GENERAL COURSE History Circle, Tau Sigma Killy , as he is called, is one of the most likeable boys in our class. He is always willing to do anyone a good turn and his motto .is Keep smiling . Tommy is one of the most active members of our class and is for- ever on the go. All of his classmates regard him as a regular fellow, and he keeps them in gales of laughter by his witty remarks. When, after gradua- tion, our paths divide, we shall long remember him. His plans for the future are indefinite but in the years to come, nothing but success is the sincere wish for him from the class of '39, JEAN KRAMER COLLEGE CoURsE History Circle, Bulletin Board Staff, Class Book Staff, Cheerleader, Basketball, A. A. Our eyes are magnetically drawn towards Jean Kramer by her bright crown of red hair. Jean is one of the liveliest and most talented members of the senior class. Jean's talent is not in music, study or drama, but in art, her contributions to the Bulletin Board being numerous. Her review of the Senior Show was one of the most cleverly drawn sketches ever seen in a High School paper. Jean is very sociable, never lacking dancing partners, and enjoying herself every minute. - Jean, despite her artistic ability, intends to further her studies at a business school. So. we'll just have to say, So long and good luck, Jean. 429 eq,.,., CHARLES LAMB COMMERCIAL COURSE History Circle Charley is definitely the tall, dark, and handsome type, which would lead one to believe that he Inade quite a splash with the members of the opposite sex. But in all his four years as a student in Clinton High, not one of the fair sex could make Charley look a second time, although it is hinted that one fair lass did succeed in making him blush! Scholastically speaking, Charley was always on the testimonial list, even though much of his time was taken up by his duties at a local book- binding concern. '39 wishes Charles the best of luck in the future. ANNA LANGLOIS GENERAL COURSE History Circle Here she is, our well-liked, well-known Titian haired classmate. Her friendly nature and unusual sense of humor are outstanding among her other characteristics. Rusty must slide down the hills to get to school on time because of the wide-open spaces between school and her home. Anna likes to go to all social events, and we can't blame her for she certainly has a good time, and receives more than her share of attention from the stronger sex. Rusty intends to be a nurse and we know that she will spread sun- shine and good cheer among her patients as she has among her classmates. Carry on, Anna. DANTE LEPORE COMMERCIAL COURSE History Circle, Athletic Association, Orchestra Dante is considered the most dashing tonsorial artist ever to make Clinton High his Alma Mater. Besides being somewhat of a professional man, he is quite a talented musician. Dante and his two close friends, Chic and Johnny frequently get together in their leisure time and play syncopated swing for the lads and lassies of our fair metropolis. Taking time off from his professional career, and forsaking the higher art of music, Dante has compiled one of the most outstanding scholastic records of our class, Italian being one of his favorite studies. The class of '39 sincerely wishes him the best Of luck for the future. RAYMOND LOWE COMMERCIAL COURSE Class Book Manager, Class President, President Sophmore French Club, President Student Council, Editor Of Bulletin Board, History Circle, Tau Sigma, Junior Prom.

Ray has another side, however, a side which few have been privileged to see. He can enjoy a good time with the best of us laughing, clownmg and havring fun. If you really want to see Ray at his best, look for him after a s ow. And now, Ray, we wish you all the luck in the world, as you leave to enter business school and say with honest hearts, Thanks for Everything. DOROTHY MACBRAYNE COMMERCIAL COURSE History Circle You can be sure that if any frantic director needs someone to liven up his latest show, he has Dotty in mind for she is truly One of the most talented members of the class of '39, As her list of achievements proves, she has well represented her class in musical shows. Petite Dotty has a long train of admirers from every class in C. H. S.- including the freshman-who can vouch for her popularity. l Dorothy was known around school as the girl with the very white teeth and the very black hair, so we are sure that she will be a very wel- come addition to Boston's Academie Moderne. if 30 WILLIAM MACORA COLLEGE COURSE Varsity Baseball Il, III, IV, Tau Sigma, History Circle Shhl Here we have Bill Macora, as quiet an individual as ever passed through the portals of this institution of learning. He is captain of the baseball team and star hurler. His ability to fog them in, and his de- termination to keep cool under fire, are the real causes for his success as a pitcher. Or could it be Camels? Bill never got 9994 in any subject and he probably never will, but his personality is a real asset in keeping friends and in making more. Bill was never known to walk from any room in less time than the full three minutes, except once when he made Room 5 from Room 7 in 2 minutes, 58 seconds. Good luck, Bill! I MADELINE MAHAN GENERAL COURSE History Circle Here we have Madeline, a new comer to C. H. S. in our senior year and one of our most brilliant students, noted and envied as the possessor of a delightful dimple. Although she appears to be a quiet and rather shy girl, she really has her share of school spirit, and readily shows it at any of the school game she attends. During the comparatively short time she has been with us, Madeline has made many friends who join in wishing her the best of luck and suc- cess in any career she may choose to follow. RAYMOND MAHAN COMMERCIAL Cotmss History Circle, Tau Sigma Suscessor to his brother, Ray is one of the best cheer provokers in high school history. He is a quiet unassuming boy, with a pleasing personality to guide him on his way to good fortune. Ray is an Acre boy seldom seen any nearer town than the Memorial Bridge. He is a charter member of the mythical Bachelor's Club his mind being elsewhere than on the fair sex. A sad adieu is bid Ray as it is his kind which makes this High School the pleasant place it is, a place we are sorry to leave. Best of luck, Ray. EDNA MA LANSON 5 COMMERCIAL Counss Class Book Staff, Bulletin Board Staff, History Circle, Athletic Associkztion Edna is one of our happy classmates who rapidly won many friends by her ready smile and good nature. Recesses she spent in much talk and laughter in the Hall with the other girls from Greeley Hill. At football games Edna was to be found right in the middle of the cheering section doing her share of cheering. She also attended most of the social functions, always having a grand time. Her unceasing efforts in the typewriting room contributed much to the success of the Bulletin Board and the Class Book. Although Edna's destination is as yet unannounced, the class of '39 wishes her loads of luck. FLORA MARBLE COLLEGE COURSE History Circle, French Club II Flora is the blonde, blue-eyed girl from Berlin. She has made many a true friend in Clinton since her freshman year. Her quiet, lady-like man- ner is always noticeable no matter what happens. Flora is an able student in all her studies but her favorite is English. Many a class room would have been a rather dull place if it hadn't been for the presence of Flora. Her quick spontaneous smile, and ready wit have done much to win her a place in the hearts of her fellow classmates. Flora wants to be a adietician and we are sure she will achieve success in her chosen field. 31 PHYLLIS MARCUS COLLEGE Counsn French Club, History Circle, Bulletin Board, Basketball, Senior Show, Senior Inter-Class Let us now focus our attention on Phyllis Marcus, better known as Penny who always knows all the latest news, and can be seen any morning surrounded by a group of chattering girls. Penny is also popular not only with the local boys, but out-of-towners as well, as the postman can readily testify. She is fond of all sports, especially basketball, and we all remember her as one of the star players on the Girls' team. Penny plans to become a department store buyer, and we know she will achieve success in her chosen profession. MARINI COMMERCIAL COURSE History Circle, Sophomore French Club Now we turn our attention to one of the petite members of our class. Esther is an extremely quiet young lady, and is just the opposite of those who are consistently engaged in talking in the front of the Hall, Period F, but she is always ready to go out of her way to aid a fellow classmate. Esther is Very fond of sports, and she is a staunch supporter of all class activities. Her greatest ambition is to be Somebody's Stenogf' Good luck, Esther, and all the happiness in the world to you! MARIE MARTIN COMMERCIAL COURSE History Circle Marie is a newcomer to our class. She blew in on us during our junior year, but in this short while has become well acquainted with each and everyone of us. Although she appears to be one of the more quiet members of the class. Marie is very active socially. Her report card was never one she had to hide: on the contrary, she can well be proud of her record. 'We don't happen to know Max-ie's intentions for the future, but wherever she may go and whatever she may do-may she be successful. MARGARET JEAN MARTINIK COLLEGE COURSE History Circle Smiling thru describes Marge, the girl whose eyes make a lasting impression and whose name is never missing from the testimonial list. Her sense of humor never misses the funny side of anything and she has brightened many dull moments with her gaiety and cheerfulness. Marge is planning to be a nurse and that is certainly a break for the invalids. One look at her radiant face and troubles and pains are forgotten. Here's wishing the most reliable girl we know all the luck in the world for her future. We know she will be a success in everything she undertakes. ROBERT MAYBERRY GENERAL COURSE Tau Sigma, History Circle, Sophomore French Club, Varsity Football, - Varsity Basketball Here is one of Clinton High's most versatile boys. Anyone who has seen Bob perform in a Gymnastic exhibition knows his ability along that line, and on the football field his energy and alertness speak for themselves. Studies never seemed to cause Bob sleepless nights, but he certainly shone in English IV where his themes invariably provoked mirth and he was recognized as the Re-write Man for the Class Book. Some of his favorite pastimes are skating, swimming and dancing, and due to constant practice he has mastered all of them. To this large and bewildering world, we give our worthy contribution- Bob 'Mayberry. 32 MICHAEL McDONALD COLLEGE COURSE Tau Sigma, fTreasurer1 History Circle Anybody who didn't know Mike would think him quiet as a mouse, but he is the possessor of a very keen wit, and can put out clever quips with the best of them. Mike holds a secret passion for glamorous Hedy LaMarr, and her marriage came as a blow to him. He is an ardent movie fan and probably Clinton High SchOol's staunchest athletic rooter. Unlike a great many boys, Mike really takes his studies seriously. He probably won't graduate with High Honors but you can be assured his honor will never be doubted. We wish him the best of luck for the future. JOHN MCGEE COLLEGE COURSE Jr. Prom. Committee, Senior Football Club, Sophomore French Club, Tau Sigma, History Circle, Dramatics 2 In every class, there is an outstanding gentleman. We give you Jack McGee. As an athlete, Jack was an answer to any cOach's prayer and for three years, he held down a regular berth on Clinton High's eleven. Jack is quite a socialite and only on rare occasions does he miss the opportunity to guide fair maidens about the dance floor in his own in- imitable style. Optimistic, witty, generous, dependable, and possessed of a magnetic personality he has been a favorite with the class, especially with the weaker sex. Since Jack's ambition is to be a lawyer, the Supreme Court Justices had better look to their laurels. NATALIE MCGINNIS COMMERCIAL COURSE Bullet-in Board, History Circle, Class Book Staff, Photography Club, Varsity Basketball Nan has,been with us for two short years only, but during that time her winsome smile and charming personality have won the high regard of numerous friends. Lefty , an ardent sports enthusiast, is well known as a capable player of softball and basketball. Her interest in roller skating has made her a familiar figure at the local rink where she often proves her athletic prowess. Her skill in typing has made her a helpful factor in getting the school paper out on schedule. We feel sure that she will continue her good work when she enters Salter's Secretarial School in the Fall. RODGER MCKNIGHT COLLEGE Couase History Circle, Tau Sigma Rodger possesses one of the most likeable personalities in our class. He was a candidate for football this year, and his fight and willingness to learn earned him a place on the first team. Rodger wasn't long in making friends, and is a very prominent member of our class. His loyalty was never found lacking, for when he wasn't playing himself, he gave his best support to the athletes and was always willing to lend a helping hand to his schoolmates. He is undecided as to his future plans, but no matter where you go, Roger, always remember that the class of '39 is pulling for you. MARION MCLAUGHLIN COMMERCIAL COURSE History Circle Take a friendly word, a cheerful smile, a pleasing personality, put them together and there you have Marion. Marion is a blond, blue-eyed girl from the Acre. She is quiet and most important of all, she is always generous with that most precious of precious things, her homeworkg though when she has time to do it is something of a mystery for every afternoon she sees to it that a certain cherubic fat least, apparentlyb pair of twins get their quota of fresh air. Marion has not taken us into her confidence concerning her future but the class most sincerely wishes her good luck and prosperity. 33 JEAN MacLAUGHLIN COLLEGE COURSE History Circle, Class Book Staff, Junior Inter-Class, Senior Show To prove to you that beauty is combined with brains, we now introduce Jean MacLaughlin. Coming to us in her junior year, she caused a stir among the boys which hasn't quieted down yet. But don't get the idea that Jean is frivolous. She's anything but, as proved by the record she has made for herself, since her arrival here. Besides being in the upper half of the class, she is quite a talented actress as is evidenced by her performance in the Inter-Class Dramatics and the Senior Play. Jean is also interested in sports, tennis and horse- back riding being her favorites. Jean plans to go to Miss Fay's School, and we all join in wishing her the best of luck. RODGER WILKINSON COMMERCIAL COURSE Hisiory Circle, Tau Sigma Here is Rodger Wilkinson, one of the wittiest young men ever to pass through the portals of Clinton High. Rodger's quick wit is accompanied by an ability to master his studies easily, although he never crowded Mr. Cobb's testimonial list. The leisure time of our class jester is taken up by his duties as a bell- hop in a local hotel, or by frequent visits to Worcester where, it is said, that shopping is not his only interest. The class of 39 sincerely wishes Rodger the best of luck for the future. ROBERT MCRELL COMMERCIAL COURSE Tau Sigma, History Circle Bob has become known throughout his four years at Clinton High for his quiet good nature and athletic ability. Quietness and minding one's own business were rather unusual quali- ties in our class, and we often wished we could imitate Bob who never had to repent a too hastily uttered statement, though he could argue with the best of us when the occasion arose. He is undecided as to where he will further his education now that high school days are over, but wherever he goes he will be a success. We are all rooting for you, Bob, and the best wishes of the class of '39 are yours. BERNICE MILLER Everyone knows Bernie, the musical and gay. Bernie came to us from Norwood iwhich she can't seem to forgetj in our junior year and has since been active in all our school affairs. We suspect that Bernie is related to Baby Snooks because her favorite Wh 'V' d d ' the eriod Bernie spends in Room 8, Miss question is y. an uring p Kerrigan must feel like Baby Snooks' father. Bernie is planning to study interior decoration at the Chamberlain School in Boston next year, and with her go the best wishes of '39. With her charm and personality, success is certain. GERTRUDE MILLS COMMERCIAL COURSE History Circle Here is Berlin's worthy contribution to Clinton High, a very likeable young lady in the person of Gertrude Mills. She is kind, considerate, and always ready to help her classmates. Although her manner is very quiet and unassuming, she has one of the loveliest personalities imaginable. Gertrude was one of the early birds in the Hall every morning and usually spent that extra time studying her U. S. History. She took all of her studies very seriously and has been well rewarded for her efforts as her record shows. u l As Gertrude leaves Clinton High, the school IS minus one more perfect pupil. Here's luck to you from '39, Gert. 34 CHRISTINE MITCHELL COMMERCIAL COURSE Class Book Stuff, Secretary of History Circle, Vice-Presiclcnt of Sophomore French Club, Stuclcnt Council, Athletic Association, Junior Prom. Committee, Bulletin Board A true pal, a bunch of energy and enthusiasm, a bright smile for everybody-and there you have Christine. For four years she has been one of the most active members of her class, never failing to make the testimonial list. She is always parti- cipating in some sort of feud in which she defends the rights of the female sex as long as she can stamp her foot. Christine has faithfully grown hoarse and suffered laryngitis each year while rooting for the football team. The loss of Christine is a great one to the school, for students of her charm, ability and dependability are rare. ROBERT MITCHELL COMMERCIAL COURSE Trcnsurcr ot' French Club, History Circle, Tau Sigma Although Mitch didn't play on the C. H. S. teams, he is one of the best athletes on Burditt Hill. He attended most of the High School games, shows, and dances, joined many school organizations, and was elected treasurer of the French Club. With all this, however, he always managed to have his name appear on the testimonial list. Mitch intends to become a transport pilot so he is going to enter the Naval Training School at Pensacola. Point the needle of your compass to the top, and we are sure that your outstanding ability will carry you there, Bob. CECILIA MORAN COMMERCIAL C'oURsE History Circle Who doesn't know our pal Cecilia?

Although Cecilia has never burned the midnight oil, or given up a good time to study she always managed to get some testimonials. We don't know what Celia intends to do after leaving C. H. S. but we wish her much luck. BARBARA MURDY NORMAI. CoURsE History Circle Barbara's fine sense of humor has won her a host of friends among our graduates and underclassmen. The hilarity in Room 8, Period D, is often due to the boners Barbara is noted for. Barbara participated in all our High School activities, but she gave her most notable performance in the Thanksgiving Show of 1938, when her lovely voice was heard to such advantage. Barbara in undecided as to what her future will be, but the class of '39 wishes her great success in whatever career she chooses and we are sure Dame Fortune will smile on her. RUTH NAUGHTON COMMERCIAL COURSE Scnior French Club, History Circle The pride of Burditt Hill came to us as a very bashful and unassuming girl. To all 0UtWaI'd appearances she leaves with these same characteris- tics. However, four years of association in the classroom and at social functions have convinced us that Ruthie is a gay, entertaining companion. Ruthie enjoys all kinds of sports and amusements, especially skating, and dancing. But, of course, one can't enjoy these alone, n'est-ce pas? ? 'l We never see Ruthie without her other self, Phiddie, and when these two get their heads together, there's mischief afoot! We say goodby to Ruth, knowing that her future studies at Simmons will bring her success. 35 VIOLA NICHOLAS COMMERCIAL COURSE Sophomore French Club, History Circle, Class Book Stay' Now let's focus our attention on one of our most capable and helpful classmates, Viola Nicholas.

Viola hopes to realize her ambition of becoming a private secretary, and we feel confident that with her ability and charming personality she will achieve great success. We wish you the best of luck, Vi. HENRY NOON COLLEGE COURSE Tau.

WILLIAM NUGENT COMMERCIAL COURSE History Circle, Varsity Football Now we have another boy from the Acre, Bill Nugent. Although Bill was one of the busiest boys in the class of '39, he found time to play football for four years. Besides playing football and taking an active part in all social events, he was also the best magazine salesman the Curtis Publishing Company had. His ready wit, industrious manner, and good-natured Irish smile Won him the friendship of both pupils and teachers. Bill's ambition is to become a pilot, and after graduation he plans to enter the Texas Aeronautical School. The class of '39 wishes you Happy Landings , Bill. AGNES 0'DAY NORMAL COURSE History Circle And now we turn to Agnes. Though she is not very enthusiastic about studying, as the saying goes, She gets there just the same. When you first see Agnes, she will impress you as being rather a qluiet girl, but after associating with her for a while, your opinion will c ange Agnes certainly does like sports. Few football games were played Without her on the side-lines cheering the boys on to victory. She has based her hopes on teaching, and we know that she will make a competent, cheerful and capable instructress. Best wishes from '39, Agnes. 36 PAULA OEHLER CoMMr-:RCIAL Couasl-3 History Circle, Class Book Staff Business before Pleasure is Paula's motto, and she certainly sticks to it. She can often be seen studying intently at recess, oblivious of her surroundings. But after her studies are finished, she gets fun out of life, one of her favorite pastimes being the movies. Beneath a quiet, reserved exterior, Paula is friendly and full of fun, with a keen sense of humor as her many friends can tell you. She has carried home her share of testimonials each quarter, and ranks among the highest of her class. In the future, she intends to become Somebody's Stenog and we are sure she will achieve success. HAROLD O'MALLEY TECHNICAL COURSE History Circle Whatever the diliiculty, however unpleasant the task, if it must be done, Harold attacks it invariably with a steady, quiet mind and the de- termination tp master it. He inspires confidence in all those who know him. The high marks earned by him in the Technical Course attest to his tenacity of purpose. He is an ardent sportsman and may be seen when the season is open roaming the woods rifle in hand. Whenever he gets the chance he plays basketball and his face is familiar to all those who frequent Turner Hall. He has every intention of furthering his education at Worcester Polytechnic Institute where he must inevitably do well. JOSEPH O'MALLEY COMMERCIAL COURSE Tau Sigma, History Circle, Dramatics Fireball 0'Malley, advocate of Shakespeare, Anderson, and Kaufman, amateur Orson Welles, has an attractive personality and is liked and admired by all.

Anyone who took English IV, Period B, will never forget Joe's interpreta- tions of Milton's thoughts. Joe's ambition is to be an air demon and the best wishes of our class go with Joe up into the clouds. V EUNICE WILSON NORMAL COURSE History Circle, Athletic Association, Varsity Basketball, Orchestra Eunice is perhaps better known as Flash because of her noteworthy participation in basketball. She is also an expert swimmer and ping pong enthusiast. Eunice's versatility is shown by the fact that she has played in the Orchestra since our freshman year. While she doesn't take her studies too seriously, she always managed to secure her share of testimonials each quarter. At present Eunice is undecided as to just where her talents will best fit in, but '39 knows she will succeed in whatever career she chooses, FRANCIS 0'TOOLE COMMERCIAL Couasa Tau Sigma, History Circle , Here is one member of our class who needs no introduction, for who doesn't know Fran? He has made many friends in all classes and of both sexes during his stay in High School. Fran is an athlete of outstanding ability. He was star guard of the basketball team, one of the best catchers on the baseball nine, and he also scintillated in football. Although Fran was not exactly the studious type, he managed to get along with very little effort and plans to further his studies at Northeastern University next year. We know he will succeed in whatever he undertakes and the class of '39 wishes him the best of luck. 37 I JOHN O'TOOLE Mr. Moderator, I protest , familiar words form a familiar figure. As an orator, John has few eguals in his class. Slightly cynical, always humorous, John has the class in an uproar with his hilarious deliveries on various subgects. Combining the wit of Benchley with the oratory of Webster, John never lacked an audience when he discoursed on his favorite subJect, taxes. A After graduation, John plans to delve into Bookkeeping at business school. Building his ladder on a foundation of figures, John should climb high in the business world. The class of '39 wishes the universally popular John success and prosperity. MARY ELIZABETH O'TOOLE COLLEGE COURSE Junior Prom Committee, History Circle, Class Book Staff, Bulletin Board Staff Mary is an example of what a high school student should be-cheerful. friendly, and ever ready to help those who need her willing service. Any morning you may see her running down from Burditt Hill and managing to arrive before the tardy bell. Mary likes athletics, both as a spectator and participant, her favorite sports being football, swimming, and skating. Her name is familiar to any- one who glances over the testimonial list in the Item-for who could miss that long list of testies credited to her. Nursing is Mary's chosen profession, and the Class of '39 wishes her the best of luck. PETER PAPACOLOS COMMERCIAL COURSE Tatu Sigma, History Circle Peter, better known as Pappy , is one of our most industrious class- mates. Once having started anything, he is determined to follow it to the end, leaving nothing unfinished. When it comes to sports, Pappy is right up in front, preferring, however, to be a loyal and enthusiastic rooter rather than a participant. Peter is friendly and lively, consequently a dull or quiet moment is never known when he's around. 'With his skill and ability in Shorthand, he sets a pace that the rest find hard to beat. Bryant and Stratton will receive an asset in Peter, while Clinton High will have memories of a highly-valued and upstanding student. KATHLEEN PAUL COMMERCIAL COURSE History Circle Calliope to the Olympians, Kathleen to her teachers, and Poppy to you and me, these three names belong to a girl who always manages to be well u in her studies and often reaches the testimonial rank.

DORTHEE PERHAM COLLEGE COURSE French Circle, History Circle, Prom. Committee Here's to Dot, who hails from High Street! She always endeavors to fulfill her promises and can be relied upon. She is a studious, quiet girl, but beneath her quietness there runs a tremor of gaiety and gladness. Dot could be found at all the social functions and never lacked a dancing partner. We wonder why Dot can't wait for Summer to roll around when she will make her annual trip to Long Island. The varied lists of accomplishments that Dot possesses will aid her in no matter what field she chooses. What wouldn't the school give for more girls like Dot! 38 ALLISON PRATT - COMMERCIAL COURSE History Circle Allison is the pretty little redhead who, upon the slighest provocation, will lend a helping hand to anyone in need. She has an effervescsnt personality which makes her presence in the homeroom something to be remembered in the future. In her studies Allison's diligent work is often rewarded with testi- monials.

The class of '39 sincerely wishes success for Allison in the future. MARION READ COLLEGE COURSE History Circle, Student Council Now we come to a petite blonde who really needs no introduction.

Although slightly shy at the social events, he more than makes up for it on the field of sport, winning his letter in both football and baseball. Quiet and unassuming, Dan has won many friends during his four years of schooling. He is one of the few exceptions to the athletic rule, receiving his share of the high marks when the quarterly reports come out.

ANNA MARIE RICHARDS COLLEGE COURSE History Circle Ann is everybody's pal, always bubbling over with laughter and ready to pop out with a funny remark. Whither thou goest, I will go, seems to be the maxim followed by Ann and Marge, her chosen pal. And lest you forget, there's always mis- chief in the air when they are together. Ann intends to take up nursing and when she does the old song, I Don't Wanna Get Well , will again be popular. We know she will succeed in achieving her ambition. Good luck, Ann, and the best wishes of '39. VERA ROBINSON GENERAL COURSE History Circle Late again! That's what everyone exclaims when Vera arrives at recess after the last bell.

Four years ago there entered the portals of C. H. S. a modest, un- assuming young lad whose departure casts a shining light for future students to follow. John Scanlon, better known as Slug , in addition to ranking with the highest, academically speaking, has all the qualifications to earn him the coveted title of gentleman , Slug found time to attend all the social events and his popularity is proved by his having been elected President of the French Club. We all remember his brilliant performance in the Senior Show. With bitter envy we pass him along to Duke University to train for the path of life. So long, Slug , and good luck. CAROL SCHMIDT COLLEGE CoURsE French Club, History Circle Since Carol entered Clinton High four years ago, her sunny disposi- tion and happy-go-lucky manner have made many friends for her. From the very beginning she was fond of social activities and sports, and her enthusiasm and vivacity kept her active in both. The French Class seems to be one period in particular which Carol enlivens by her gaiety and giggle. Every now and then we hear a chuckle from the back of the class and we know Carol is enjoying herself heartily. With a character and disposition like hers, Carol is certain to find success in this world. RAYMOND SCHMIDT GENERAL COURSE Class Book Staff, Bulletin Board Staj, History Circle, Tau Sigma Visualize your ideal of a typical American High School boy, and Raymond immediately comes to mind, for that honorable title was bestowed on him following an extensive poll held by a large Worcester organization. Without doubt Raymond well deserved the honor, though We ques- tion the adjective typical for Raymond's kind is rare. His physical appearance, his dress, his manner, his mental attainments, his vocabulary, facile pen, and industry were the subjects of favorable comment from both faculty and pupils. With such ability and versatility, many fields of endeavor are open to Ray, and whatever his choice, success is sure to follow. BEATRICE SCHNIEDER COMMERCIAL COURSE Bea is one of our senior girls who possesses everything-personality, attractiveness, and a spirit for fun. Although an ardent rooter at all outdoor athletic meets, Bea really shines at the socials and proms where she easily fills her dance card. Despite her social activities, Bea never neglected her books and was a real asset to every class. Although she is the athletic type, Bea, nevertheless, is an expert at the more feminine art of cooking, and her favorite topic of conversation is Fanny Farmer's Cooking School which she plans to attend. If she makes her candies as sweet as herself, we are sure they will satisfy the customers. 40 ' SARA EDITH TAFT COLLEGE COURSE History Circle Sara's likeable manner and pleasing personality make her an inter- esting and delightful companion. She has the good fortune to possess a wonderful sense of humor, and always appears to be in the best of spirits. Her great love for sports has kept her cheering at all home games. Sara has never had to burn the midnight oil writing out the Declara- tion of Independence on account of some misdeed, nevertheless, she cannot be numbered among the believers of the proverb, Silence is golden. Her future plans are indefinite as yet, but in any event she has the good wishes of '39. RUTH TAUBERT COMMERCIAL COURSE History Circle, Athletic Association, Class Book Stajf, Bulletin Board Next in line comes Ruth, whose pleasant smile and good nature have won her many friends. She firmly believes in doing a thing well, which probably accounts for her success in studies, particularly Shorthand, Ruth's favorite subject. Anyone in need will find her ready, willing, and able. We wonder how Ruth finds time for Outside activities, but she is seen at every important school function. Her favorite pastimes are football and dancing. To become a secretary is Ruth's ambition, and we all know that her work will lead to success. Best of luck, Ruth! DOROTHY THOMPSON COMMERCIAL COURSE History Circle, Class Book Staff, Bulletin Board, A. A. Dot , because of her pleasant disposition, has won an enviable place in all our hearts.

BERNICE TROTT COMMERCIAL COURSE French. Club, History Circle To all Outward appearances, Bernice is a very quiet girl, but those who know her find she has a winning personality. Those fortunate enough to have eaten her fudge have another potent reason for the high regard in which they hold her. Her seriousness is never deep, yet it is always sincere, her humor is always light, yet it is never shallow. All that Bernice has attained can be attributed to ambition and hard work. It is with the ardent desire to see her continue on to real success that we take leave of her here. May she find happiness in her chosen field.

Nothing is too difficult to Overcome, is Sylvia's motto, conse- quently she is a member of that very exclusive division, The Testimonial Group.

She has the ability to succeed in whatever profession she chooses. Here's to success, Sylvia. 41 EDWARD TULOWECKI GENERAL COURSE Q Eddie is probably the most dashing, debonair milkman that has ever strolled through the corridors of Clinton High. Besides attending to his duties as a dispenser of milk for a local con- cern, Eddie finds time to make frequent trips to Leominster, which, by the way, is not within the scope of his morning milk route. Scholastically speaking, Eddie was never considered a mathematical genius, but the consistency with which he passed difficult exams was the envy of most every member of his class. The class of '39 feels sure that Eddie will continue to be as ambitious and successful in the future as he was during his four years captivity in Clinton High. LEOPAULDO TURINI COMMERCIAL COURSE History Circle Because of his quiet friendly manner, and willingness to help others, Leo made many friends during his four years in High School.

FRANCIS UNDERWOOD GENERAL COURSE Football 2, 3, 4, Senior Football Club, History Circle, Tau Sigma Left handed, two fisted, happy-go-lucky, this is Unkie Underwood, football captain extraordinary and All Midland League lineman. He is the smiling hero of the Fall season. Unkie is a member of the Smiling Usher brigade at Joe Liss' Cinema Center. He handles the flashlight with all the grace of a bank robber and he handles the crowd with the polish of a New York policeman. fNo slur meant, Mr. Valentinej.

MARJORIE WHITCOMB COMMERCIAL COURSE History Circle, French Club, Class Book Stag' And now we come to Marjorie Whitcomb, blonde, blue-eyed, and one of the seemingly quiet girls in our class. But appearances are often deceptive as in this case. Marge was a great football fan, and could be seen at all the football games 'cheering dear old C. H. S. on to victory. However, outside interests never conflicted with Marjorie's school work, as she always managed to get more than her share of testimonials. Marjorie's plans for the future are still uncertain, but we know she will be a success in whatever she undertakes. The class of '39 wishes you the best of luck, Marjorie. iw in 42 fi f -,I Qu, M, 5 - we VD, u -49 '41 Q , C J, ,QA A A , A X has if J' in ,, - . -w?flQTMi't5 ? 4B,,g,if 3 139 Qlmx :army 0?-B bw- 'lf N.: '18 Uv' WS L S, iv Q14 , ' u .fa ,1 :bv W I c ,E 'M ,qs J L ,ml 1 K all I AVW , Q I ' -qi-1'i'v V ' ' , F -ff 'M' 1 I .

We soon became acquainted with our teachers and classmates, though in searching for our rooms if we naively sought the help of the upper classmen we invariably ended up in the boiler room. We attended our First big football game on Thanksgiving Day and tried to look as though we knew what it was all about. Making our debut in the social life of the High School that night, we attended the annual show and walked or stumbled through the dancing that followed. For the next few months we were entertained with terrible tales of the Mid-Year Exams. Nervously we anticipated them, frantically we dug into them and fearfully awaited the outcome which put our worst fears to rest. A Being only freshman and therefore having no social standing, we passed up the Iunior Prom. With the end of Iune came a two months' vacation in which to recuperate, and we returned in the Fall as ...... Sopbomores We were no longer puzzled at the maze of halls and staircases and with an important air we directed the freshmen to various rooms. Holding our first class elections we chose Vance Raynsford, President, Barbara Grady, Vice-President, Mary Cassidy, Secretary, and Iohn McGee, Treasurer. Again the ordeal of the Mid-years and we passed through the battle receiving a few scars in the fray. The Interclass Diamatics received our contribution to the stage. Iune rolled around and following the summer vacation and sports we entered school as . . . . . . 44 ,ter union To guide us through our Iunior year, we elected as our representatives Vance Raynsford, President, Barbara Grady, Vice-President, Mary Flanagan, Secretary, and Iohn McGee, Treasurer: We selected our class rings and began to wear them with justifiable pride. Mid-years rolled around unfailingly and with gratification, not unmixed with amaze- ment, we found our worst fears unconfirmed. Again the Easter Show and that all important event, our own Iunior Prom. The vari-colored gowns of the girls and contrasting navy and fiannels of the boys lent a picturesque charm to the evening. and the event was carried off brilliantly. Our one thought as we commenced our vacation was, We return as . . . . Senior: In keeping with our station, we emerged forth dignified and mature, electing Raymond Lowe, President, Rose Garafoli, Vice-President, Mary Flanagan, Secretary, Iohn McGee, Treasurer, to lead us through our final year. We attended every social event making the most of our last year. We regarded the Mid-years with a bored nonchalance disdaining to worry about them. By dint of our dignified and mature acting we gave an excellent account of ourselves in the Easter Show. From then on all our preparations were made with an eye toward graduation. We receive our diplomas and feel a twinge of sadness at leaving Clinton High School for the last time, but take with us a store of memories to think about and cherish in the years to come. 45 r 1, .

The plot concerned George and Lulu, a financially embarrassed young married couple. Une evening George invited a prospective employer to call. George's intention was to impress Mr. Iones with his affluence. but inasmuch as moving men appeared to repossess the furniture. Mr. lones was rather impressed by Georges savoir faire and decided he could use a young man with poise in his business. Winifred Casey of the flute-like voice was charming as the Hustered Lulu. Ioseph O'Malley as the bombastie George nearly brought down the house when he displayed the hole in his shoe which pounding pavements had caused. lack McGee was imposing as Mr. lones. and Ray McNamara proved himself an efficient furniture mover. Though the Iuniors won the lnter-Class Dramatic Contest, there was no lack of flattering comments on our offering. 47 RAYMOND STEELE fiERALDlNE COGSXVELL IosEPii O'MALLEv IEAN MAc,LAL'c:i1L1N EARLE RUSSELL M,xRoAi1E1 MEs'rER His First Date Our iunior year brought the presentation ol an hilariously amusing one-act play, directed by Henry M.

Henry Tippet, young son of a prosperous and influential suburban banker, is wild, mischievous, fond of boyish pranks, but his mother. played by Margaret Hester, takes comfort from the knowledge that he's not involved in alliairs with the opposite sex. Then the blow falls: Loraine Lotus, Hollywood siren, played by lean McLaughlin, comes to town and Henry succumbs. She strings along for the publicity value of the Tippet name, is invited by Henry to the house. Henry's father, p'ayed by Ioseph O'Malley, determined to put ai. end to the afjfair in his masterly way, is dismayed to discover that Loraine Lotus is a girl he knew very well indeed years ago in his own wild-oats days. Adding still more comedy to the scene are the deaf maid. played by Geraldine Cogswell, and Henry's sister Evelyn, played by Bette Howard. The play was a complete success and well received by the audience. 48 f'Hanging Uncle Henry Under the splendid and capable direction of Mr. Frank O'Toole, the Senior Class presented the humorous enactment of Hanging Uncle Henry. The one-act comedy is centered around a young newly married couple, Hobart and Emily Wendell, excellently portrayed by George Donnelly and Bette Howard. The question of where to hang Hobart's Uncle Henry's picture causes an argument between the newlyweds, which is in full swing as the curtain rises with Hobart insisting that the hideous portrait of his ancestor should hold the most conspicuous place in the room while Emily is determined that Hobart will not have his way, claiming that it shall be hung where it can't be seen. In the midst of this heated argument, Hobart's cousin, George Sampson, played by Kieran Culliton, enters, followed, as usual, by Emily's cousin, Clara Sims, portrayed by Phyllis Marcus. These two blights inform the already raging Wendells of the fact that none believes the marriage will last and that friends and relatives have gone so far as to bet against it. When Hobart and Emily Finally succeed in getting rid of their unwelcome cousins, they decide to prove to all that their marriage will not fail-both of them realizing their stubborness. After many apologies and promises, the question of Uncle Henry's picture again arises. This time, each insists that the other have his own way-Hobart stating it must go where Emily first wanted it, and Emily declaring that Hobart, not herself, should have his way, and that the picture occupy an important place and be hung over the mantel. This brings on another argument, worse than the previous one. As Emily is finally about to hang the portrait, she drops both it and the hammer on her husband and the curtain falls with both characters screeching-Hobart with pain, and Emily with fright. 1 i All four characters helped in making Hanging Uncle Henry an amusing presenta- tion and a great success. 49 L i i Senior Christmas Show ciEORGE IDONNELLY MARX' CHIAVARIS IosEPii f,'MALLEX' BERNICE MILLER liIl?RAN CtfLL1ToN ELIZABETH HowARo MARGARET HEsTER MARX' Cixssmv IoHN SCANLON PHYLLI5 MARKIl7S GEoRoE BOADH IEAN MAfII.AI'CllLIN WINHIRED CASEY Our Senior Play was a success artistically, socially, and financially. Every member of the cast displayed such unusual ability and performed with such animation that the audience reacted as though they were viewing a scene from real life. Iimmie Iones, excellently portrayed by George Donnelly, had definite ideas as to how a young man could succeed in this modern age. He contended that success required nerve and publicity rather than talent. Ioseph O'Malley as james I. Iones, Sr., the successful business man who achieved success by starting at the bottom, and Mary Cassidy as Mrs. lones, the sympathizing mother, were acclaimed splendid by the audience. During his father's absence, Iimmie proceeded to put his theory into practice by arranging a series of personal appearances in the show window of a local clothing store. Displaying the latest fashions in men's clothing, he got into a series of tight spots when Gladys Glamour, the successful young movie star, capably played by Iean McLaughlin, coquetted with him from the sidewalk. Their antics, photographed by a cameraman, in love with and terribly jealous of Gladys, are printed in the newspapers and Iimmie is plunged from sudden success to failure and degradation. Even his best girl, Polly Prescott, charmingly characterized by Mary Chiavaris, insti- gated by a snobbish mother, realistically portrayed by Bernice Miller, refuses to see him. However, there is a happy ending to this romance due to the efforts of Phyllis Marcus and Margaret Hester who adequately portrayed the parts of Nora Newman, successful newspaper woman, and Mrs. Davenport, owner of the clothing store. Winifred Casey as Cuddles , Bette Howard as Gabby , Iohn Scanlon as Biff and George Bodah as StuHy were delightful in their roles of modern and progres- sive youth. Kieran Culliton as the excitable K'Van Horn , the cameraman, gave a dynamic performance and was highly praised by the audience. The class is deeply indebted to Lewis S. Gordon of the faculty for his capable direction, and to Thomas Kilcoyne for his efforts as stage-manager. 50 2' Q, :ggi X ,,-... 'eh' 2 WW? v-... A-4' MQ: xx.

The Circle President, Iohn Connelly, with the cooperation of Raymond Dobeck. Treasurer, and Christine Mitchell, Secretary, has worked hard to keep the interest of the members and has in no way failed as the attendance at the meetings has shown, President Connelly showed his diplomacy in the very First meeting of the History Circle by arranging a town meeting. It was conducted very successfully under the instruction of Mr. Peter O'T'oole, the Town Moderator. This was followed by many unusual and very interesting meetings. A The Circle was so successful that it will be a dillicult task for those coming after to equal it. But the climax is still to come. Une and all look forward to the annual trip to Provincetown. The excitement mounts higher as the eventful day approaches when the birds will sing sweetly, the sun will shine brightly, and the History Circle of '39 will be on its way for a day of fun, laughter and song. 52 Bulletin Board Rfxvixiown Lows, l?dl'IOI'-Iill-Chllff Natalie McGinnis Eva Battista Mary Flanagan Ruth Taubert Dorothy Thompson Edna Malanson Mary Dowd Iean Kramer Sylvia Witzky Christine Mitchell Eleanor Furphy Ann Kenney lohn Connelly Dorothy Burgwinlile Phyllis Dickson Geraldine Cogsvvell Barbara Grady Phyllis Marcus Vera Robinson Lorraine Leedham Alice Moran George Donnelly Francis Underwood Henry Noon Ann Cobb Until 1936, Clinton High had no school paper, but that year, due to the efforts of Raymond Lowe, the Ballefin Board was organized with a staff of reporters, typists, artists, and editors. The Bulletin Board furnishes valuable experience to those interested in Iournalism, as all the work from the collecting of the material through the selling of the paper is done by the pupils. The Bulletin Board contains reports of all social events and sports, and the customary gossip columns, without which no school paper is complete. Keen interest is shown in the editorials, poems and themes contributed by the students. The attractive and appropriate covers and illustrations, which are the work of the staff artists, are always the subject of favorable comment and help to make the issue of the Bulletin Board an eagerly awaited event. Many thanks are due the stall, as well as the entire student body for helping to make our school paper such a successful enterprise. 55 Sophomore French Club RAYIJUND LowE, President Cr1R1s'rrNE MITCHELL, Vice-Pre.cide11!

Rules were made and enforced by the student representatives who had the good of the students at heart. The purpose of the organization was to maintain order, protect the lives and property of the students, alleviate the tasks of the teachers, and promote a better understanding between faculty and students. For such an organization to succeed, cooperation from the members of the Council, the student body and the faculty is necessary. lt is to be hoped that on the foundation laid this year a splendid and strong organization will be built in the future. 57 High School Orchestra Sylvia Witzky Ethel Hester Helen Pratt Dominic Turini Elizabeth Hamilton Iohn Bergero losephine Doria George Donnelly Ann Cobb Frank Turini Alice O'Malley Edward Cecchini Mary Geranios Nicholas Zarapholos Athena Papacolas Raymond Domenica Rose Stephanian When we hear the militant strains of the trumpets sounding forth in the brilliant fanfare, introducing the Triumphal March from Aida. we realize how important the High School Orchestra is to the success of our graduation. Most high schools have large orchestras and bands. While we have a comparatively small orchestra only, we are fortunate in having one evenly balanced. ' This year, in addition to playing for the March of the Graduates, the orchestra is playing the selection Dark Eyes , and accompanying the chorus in Sanctus from the St. Cecilia Mass by Gounod, and the Song of the Vikings by Fanning 5. For the re, cessional the orchestra plays the Flag of Truce March by Laurendeau. Members of the Class of '39 who belong to the High School Orchestra Hamilton who has occupied a prominent place in the violin section since to Clinton High School: Ann Cobb, versatile pianist and violonist, who is cient on both instruments, Sylvia Witzky, who has just this year entered arc Elizabeth her entrance equally profi- the orchestra as a pianist, and a very Fine one: Richard Fuller, a guitarist who can swing out on the classics as well as on the Western tunes for which he is famous: and George Donnelly who has performed on the Xylophone and drums since his freshman year. We feel that the members of the class of '39, will not soon forget the impression made upon them as they slowly march down the aisles of the Town Hall, on that night in Iune to the music of the Orchestra: and that they will never forget the days of re- hearsals preceding the graduation, and Miss Driscoll's untiring efforts to make our graduation a success. 58 Old Man 1938, since deceased, saw the football forces of Clinton High School win two football games, lose four and tie one during his twelve month lifetime. This record, however, does not indicate the lighting spirit and ability of the team. A miserable lack of reserve strength was a primary cause in the failure of the locals to win more games. On Savage Field in the season opener, Milford High School defeated Clinton I3-6. The only Clinton score came when Iohn Merriman made a beautiful run, down into Milford territory only to be put out of action permanently a few plays later with a broken arm. Kaminski carried the ball over for the score. Clinton took to the road for the next game and went to Webster to play Bartlett High. The Green and Gold emerged the victor 7-6. Once again it was adding the extra point to his scoring record. Floodlight footba'l was introduced to the locals when they traveled to Riverside Park, Hudson, and defeated the team from that town 12-6. Paul Bradley and Ray Ball both crossed the last white line for Clinton. Then we saw the game of games, spectacle of spectacles, the game which women, children, and even strong men wept over-the Leominster contest at beautiful Doyle Field. The locals battled on even terms with the Broderickmen for two periods only to see Leominster score once in the third quarter and three times in the final quarter. The final score being 26-0. Had Clinton better reserve strength this game would have had an entirely different outcome, the regulars worked until they could hardly stand up, bloody but unbowed, defeated but not disgraced, they came home a badly battered unit. Another home game on Savage Field was the third Midland League contest of the season. Marlboro came here, an underdog, and tied the locals 7-7. Ray O'Malley scored the only local touchdown and Capt. Francis Underwood kicked the point. Clinton traveled to Athol on Armistice Day and this was the only game which showed a lackadasical spirit in the Green and Gold ranks. As a result, a fast moving Athol backfield scored four times to win 25-0. On the return trip a fire developed on the bus, stranding the team in Leominster for about an hour. The final came in Maynard, a Midland League game which was supposed to be soft picking for the charges of Mike Vodoklys' paced by Charley D'Agata. The final score was 6-0 in favor of Maynard but not without a struggle. Clinton knocked at the Maynard goal line on occasions and was a bulwark of strength on the defense. It was a tribute to the fine coaching which they received throughout the year from both Athletic Director Ioseph F. McCaffrey, and Assistant Coach Iames Garrity. Members of the team were Learned, R. O'Malley, McKnight, Captain Underwood, McGee, Bradley, Ball, Mayberry, Kaminski, I. O'Malley, Misfaiyik, Merriman, Mason, Flanders, McDonald, Miller, Reardon, Porciello, McNamara, Culliton, Brescia, Gannon, Noon, Cardamone, Iablonski, Mitchell, Manager Connelly and Asst. Manager McDonald. The season was brought to an official close with the awarding of letters at the Annual Rotary Club Banquet. 61 Baseball, 1939 The 1939 season, not yet finished, has been so-so as far as the locals are concernedg however, the only lasting black marks at this time are two setbacks administered by the Maynard team which later won the Midland League title. The first contest with Maynard, the opener for the locals, saw a seesaw battle finally going to the champions by a 65 score. Captain Bill Macora was the Clinton pitcher all the way. The annual Alumni clash was next and the first home game of the season. The students gave Pete Pappas an early lead and he went on to win, the score being 12-8. Hudson came here to meet defeat, 7-3, with Bill Macora completely vanquishing the Red and White. This game was a line example of smart ball playing, with the locals never giving ground to the veteran Rubbertowners. The Marlboro game, at Ward Park in that city, saw Ray Dobeck and Pete Pappas rwirling for Clinton. This game was in direct contrast to the Hudson game for it was a display of perhaps the sloppiest fielding ever witnessed by the goodly crowd that gathered in Marlboro that afternoon. Riverside Park was the scene of the next contest, and Clinton was defeated by a revamped Hudson team 8-2. Bill Macora twirled for Clinton. Crocker Field in Fitchburg saw the Red and Gray of that city cop a 6-5 victory from Clinton. The reason for losing this game was the foolish baserunning displayed by the local boys. Pete Pappas and Ioe Brescia twirled. Maynard came to Clinton and Ray Ball doubled with two out in the eighth inning to get Clinton's only hit and lock the door of the Hall of Fame against the Maynard twirler. The Final score stood Maynard 4, Clinton 0. Fitchburg returned the Clinton visit and later on wished they hadn't, for Clinton completely overwhelmed them 16-1. Ioe Brescia, Bill Macora and southpaw Iohn O'Toole pitched. The Clinton win streak was extended to two games when Marlboro came to town and was trounced 10-2. Pete Pappas hurled a 2 hit ball game for the victors. Three games remain on the schedule: two with Milford, and one with Leominster. Three wins would make this season a great success so let's hope that Clinton will produce hits when they mean runs, tight pitching, and some good Fielding. Members of the team are Captain Bill Macora, Ray Ball, Fran O'Toole, Ray McNamara, Bennie Polewarcyk, Steve Stuka, Ioe Brescia, Rud Learned, Eddie MAcBrayne, Steve Despotopulos, Iohn O'Toole, Walter O'Toole, Charles Nolan, Ioe O'Malley, Pete Pappas, Ray Dobeck, Tony Cardamone, and Manager Iohn Connelly. 62 Cheer Leaders Raymond Mahan Dorothy Alzzlpiedi Roberta Miclkhe Raymond Steele lean Kramer 63 Basketball IQAYIXIOND MCNAAIAIKA, Captain Pctcr Pappas Iames o'Ma11Cy Carl Dorfman Raymond Hall Edward Kilcoyne Robert Mayberry Anthony Belcher Steven Stuka Willard Lcarnard 64 Basketball Flashing a brand of basketball which carried them through an early season Eve game win streak and later to the Semi-Finals in the Townsend Tournament, the Clinton High School basketball team, ably coached by Athletic Director Ioseph F. McCaffrey, more than made their presence known in vicinity hoop circles. December 23 saw the season open in the local Armory with the more experienced Alumni upsetting the Students, 32-20. The Kilcoyne boys, Iohn of the Alumni, and Eddie of the Students, put on a family show, the former also shining on the defensive. The start of the regular season against school competition was when Dick Roberts' Townsend team, later winners of the Townsend tournament, came to the drill shed and lost, 31-20, in a super thriller. Co-Captain Ray McNamara, nursing a sore ankle up to this time, came 011 the bench to pace the winners. On the afternoon of Ianuary 3, in a game marked by rough playing and fisticuffs, Clinton trounced Marlboro, 20-15, in that city. The two Rays, Ball and McNamara, were the local shining lights. In Clinton on Ianuary 6, the Becker Iayvees, boasting two local boys, Plamondon and Nolan in the lineup, were the victims of a third quarter Clinton scoring spree, and were defeated, 22-20. Co-Captains, McNamara and O'Ma1ley, accounted for 13 Green and Gold points. One week later, on Ianuary 13, Marlboro came to Clinton, and due to the fine showing of Steve Stuka and Co-Captain O'Malley, the locals made it four in a row, 17-16. Ianuary 20 found Clinton in Hudson playing heads up ball and defeating the team from the Rubber town, 32-20. Raymie the Red once again was the big noise. T hen it came, as suddenly as an April shower, but far more devasting, Charles Broderick's Blue and White cagers became the first High School team to beat the locals, the score being 53-34-Ouchl The Templeton Farmers invaded Clinton on Ianuary 27 and were defeated, 29-18. Fran O'Toole tallied twelve points for the Clinton cagers. The Green and Gold scored 27 points in the last half at the local Armory on February 3, and completely vanquished Shrewsbury High School, 36-11. Ray McNamara, fwhat againj, and Steve Stuka were the thorns in the Shrewsbury flesh',. February 8, Clinton traveled to Worcester, and with the help of some varsity replace- ments, the Becker Iayvees defeated the locals, 39-23 . . . Skidool Hudson High repaid a Clinton visit on February 17, and for the second time the locals won, 34-19, Ray McNamara again being the star. In Nec Hall in Shrewsbury, on February 24, in a sudden death overtime period, the Bennismen emerged the victors, 24-22. t In the Townsend Tournament, Clinton defeated Littleton, 34-14, and Pembroke Academy, 34-16. Then came the Semi-Final game with Wilton, New Hampshire. The locals lost a close 28-26 game, which saw them really to the closing period only to fall one basket short. This brought to a close a successful season which saw three months of hard work well rewarded. Coach McCaFfrey should be congratulated for the Fine job he did with this team. Senior members of the squad were the Co-Captains, Henry O'Malley and Ray McNamarag Fran O'Toole, and Carl Dorfman. Iohn Connelly was manager. Other members were Ray Ball, Steve Stuka, Ed Kilcoyne, Tony Bronchuk, Pete Pappas, Ioe O'Malley, Bud Learned, and Bob Mayberry. The class of 1939 wishes next year's team the best success possible. Let's see you guys go to town. 65 Girls' Basketball Genevieve Guenther Eunice Wilson Phyllis Dickson Phyllis Marcus Natalie McGinnis lean Kramer For the First time in many years Clinton High School sports fans had the pleasure of again seeing girls in the athletic Field when girls' basketball teams were organized under thc direction of Pauline Crockett, W. P. A. Supervisor of Athletics. Although no out-of-town games were played this year the trail has been blazed for future teams. So many girls answered the call for candidates that it was possible to form six teams, each one playing under the name of a well known women's college. The top-ranking teams were Radcliffe, composed of seniors, and Smith, representing the sophomores. The Radcliffe lineup was as follows: Genevieve Guenther, C. F.g Phyllis Dickson, R. F.g Natalie McGinnis, L. F., Eunice Wilson, R. G., Phyllis Marcus, C. G., lean Kramer, L. G. Several preliminary games were played at the Armory on Friday nights where the girls acquitted themselves creditably. 66 AN .. , . . 4 Graduation Program Triumphal March fAidaj ....
