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.

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.

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

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 can trip the light fantastic with the best of the trippe1's and no social event is complete without her.

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

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.

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
