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

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

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
