THOMAS HENRY KILCOYNE. Commercial Course History Circle, Jr. Prom Committee, Photography Club, Tail Sigma, Inter-Class Baseball 1-2. Boys will be boys. Take about two parts intelligence, one part humor, sprinkle with a likeable personality, and we have Tom Kilcoyne, the Strand ' s fore- most usher. His wit and humor may be readily seen by the quips that he tosses around going through the corridors of C.H.S. Books never bother Tom, and the contents less; but still he must have done some studying on the sly for he seemed to pull through without too many fancy red marks. His pleasing personality made him well liked by members of the faculty and both sexes of his class. ELIZABETH CARTER KINNEAR College Course French Club, History Circle, Historical Society, Jr. Prom Committee, Class Boole Staff, Photography Club, Honorary Member of Clinton’s Women’s Club ‘‘Sometimes grave and sometimes gay, But we libe her anyway. Betty is one of our most prominent Senior girls. Possessing an extra- ordinary sense of humor, she often gets into trouble with her giggling. She is well liked by everyone because of her sportsmanship, her readiness to help anyone, and her friendliness. Betty, although often seen going by in her car, always has her name in the testimonial list. JOSEPH KULIS Commercial Course History Circle. Joe could rightfully be recorded in the History of 1940 as one of the class sharks. Never has he been known to arrive in class unprepared. As a result, each quarter brought him his usual number of testi- monials. In order to dispell any impression that Joe was a “grind” let us say that he was far from it. Whenever the occasion demanded it he was right in the midst of whatever was going on. Joe expects to follow a business course after graduation and will enter one of the better Commercial colleges. Best of luck from 1940, Joe. LEAH KARMEN College Course Photograpfiy Club, History Circle. “ Happy am I, from care I ' m free, Why aren’t they all content li e me? Leah Karmen is one of the most vivacious members of the senior class. “Lee” is an outdoor girl, particularly fond of skating. She is undecided as yet as to what career she will choose, but we think that her sunny disposition and persevering nature will lead her to success. Best of luck, “Lee. 29

GEORGE KAMATARIS General Course Tau Sigma, History Circle, |r. Prom Committee, Football 4. “ 1 imeo Danaos et dona ferentis.” These hallowed words would be changed to convey a far less ominous mental suggestion had Laocoon been alive today and met this chap whose name the class of 1940 has been lucky enough to number in its ranks. His gifts stamp him as an athlete ne plus ultra, a social lion with the ability to win lasting friendships, and a well-balanced scholar. To wish him success would be partially superfluous, since true success will be merely the manifestation of his zenith — piercing abilities. ANGELINE KARTALOS Commercial Course 1 1 is tor y Circle, Photography Club, Shorthand Circle, Class Book Staff. “May knowledge increase.’’ Angie is one of the more quiet and reserved members of our class. Her conscientious manner toward her studies places her among the more brilliant students. Her businesslike attitude will prove an advantage to her as we know she will be a valuable asset to some office. The class of ' 40 wishes her constant success in her future vocation. AUSTIN PAUL KELLEY General Course Tau Sigma, History Circle. Austin, one of the quieter boys of the High School, is always ready to give a helping hand whenever needed. Although not taking part in any athletics, he has always been a hearty enthusiast of all High School events. He is a graduate of Holy Rosary School and is affiliated with the Scouts and Study Club of the same parish. Although his plans for the future are not certain we all feel that he will go a long way in his chosen field. JOSEPH FRANCIS KILCOYNE College Course Tau Sigma, History Circle, Photography Club, Junior Prom Committee, Senior Show Committee. Better to do the world’s idlest work, Thun to he idle always.’’ “Joe” is one of the rare combinations of an athlete and a good student. Joe obtained good marks while at Clinton High School, and received his share ot testimonials each quarter. 1 le is a loyal supporter of all High School games and may be seen at all our social functions. His sportsmanship, cheerfulness, and willingness to help, have made him a much sought after friend. We predict a bright and successful future lor you, Joe, whatever your endeavor. 28

JULIA MARIE LAMB Commercial Course Photography Club, History Circle. “A flippant tongue is worth a pot of gold.” This “Lolla,” one of our attractive blue-eyed senior girls. Of lassitude she has none and enjoys herself by dancing or skating. Lolla doesn ' t believe in wasting electricity over her homework but she manages to keep sailing. Her ambition is to excel in commercial art. Keep trying, Julia, for to quote Miss Thompson, “Success crowns effort.” JENNIE LAMBROS Commercial Course History Circle, Shorthand Circle, Photography Club, Class Book Staff. Not simple conquest, Triumph is her aim.” In spite of the fact that Jennie did not take an active part in the social functions of the school, she managed to keep her popularity among her classmates. Enthusiasm, cheerfulness, capability, are characteristics which describe Jennie to perfection. She has worked faithfully and diligently during her four years in High School, managing to appear on the testimonial list every quarter. EVERETT LAMLEIN General Course Basketball 4, History Circle, Tau Sigma. The pulsating rhythm of his dancing feet which, to the accompani- ment of a Glenn Miller killer-diller, generated enough heat on Music Hall floor as Mrs. O’Leary’s cow did in Chicago won “Evey the dis- tinction of the best dancer in the class. “Evey” also gave enough time to schoolwork to win the admiration of his teachers and enough to athletics to win a position on the varsity basketball squad. The best wishes of ’40 go with you “Ev” into whatever field of en- deavor you are entering. GEORGE ANDREW LATINEN Technical Course Treasurer of History Circle, Baseball 2, History Society, Class Book Staff. My books arc my friends.” The Class ol ’40’s nearest claim to a combination of physical and mental perfection takes shape in the form of this handsome, fair- haired chap, under whose veil of tranquillity we find an intensely hu- man friend. His is a physique perfected by long hours of diversified forms of calisthenics, his is an intellectuality perfected by constant devotion to his schoolwork, and his is a personal charm perfected by an interesting conversational ability and contagious sense of humor. 30
