MARGUERITE DE CESARE 5-l?t5:r4y Circle, French Circle, Photography Club, Athletic Association Nay, I shall never be aware of mine own wit 'Til I break my shins against it. A giggle, a twinkle of those big, brown eyes and a smile means none other than Marguerite. She can be recognized anywhere by her rippling, contagious laughter. By her witty remarks she adds to the enjoyment of those who are fortu- nate enough to be chosen as her intimates. During her four years here, she has enthusiastically attended all social and sports events. She certainly knows how to keep up with the fashion standards. We wish Marguerite the best of fortune in whatever she undertakes. HAROLD CHESTER DEN SMORE Who is the happiest of men? He who values the merit of others. Harold is a quiet boy with a pleasant smile and a pleasing personality. His love of field and stream occupied him outside of school and he would rather fish and hunt than swim in Clinton High's social whirlpool. His industrious manner and good nature won him the friend- ship of both pupils and teachers. Harold intends to enter the U. S. Naval Training Station next year and the Class of '42 wishes him success in his chosen field. NORMAN DIEGOLI History Circle, Tau Sigma. To keep happiness we must be willing to give and share it. Perhaps we, shall remember Norman as one of the quieter boys of the class, but those who know him intimately value his sincere and loyal friendship. Although he was never a grind where schoolwork was con- cerned, nevertheless Norm's interest in his subjects and his ability to rate highly in them always gained the teachers' confidence. We wish the best of everything to Norman, for, with his per- severance and sincerity, he is sure to succeed. DANIEL DIONIS History Circle, Tau Sigma, Photography Club, Thanksgiving Show 2-3, Orchestra 2-3-4. None but himself can be his parallel. Presenting Danny Dennis, the schools most talented mu- sician. Danny has Won fame thru his fine musical ability and sensational clarinet playing, not only in' Clinton, but throughout the New England States. Smooth dresser, technique with the opposite sex, and vers- able manner make Danny one of Clinton's most popular young gentlemen. The Class of '42 will never forget Danny's talent, a.talent that we are sure will lead him to stardom in the musical world. 22

THELMA LILLIAN COLBURN History Circle, Basketball 2. Some think the world is made for fun and frolic, and so do I. Glancing at Teddy during a class we imagine her to be quiet - but ask her friends or even her study teachers - Mr. Garrity in particular. Her friendly manner has gathered her friends from far and near. Basketball, roller skating and dancing are her favorite pas- times. Her ambitions are many and varied. She has always felt the urge to do something outstanding in fields other than 'those of the feminine class. So to Teddy goes the best wishes from the Class of '42, MARY ALICE CONNOLLY Photography Club, History Circle, lunior Prom Committee, Shorthand Circle, French Club. When Irish eyes are smiling. Let us now focus our attention on one of the most popular girls in the Senior class. At all social events you can be sure to see Mary, for her favorite pastime is dancing and she is never without a part- ner. However Mary never goes home without a book under her arm and manages to stay on the testimonial list. Mary plans to be somebody's stenog, the Class of '42 wishes her the best of luck. MIRIAM DAMSKY History Circle, Shorthand Circle, Photography Club. Silence never betrays you. A friendly smile, a cheery greeting and an interesting con- versation truly describe .Mim. Although she is unusually carefree, she shows a deep inter- est in the finer things of life - Dramatics and Literature. Being one of our most industrious students, she found no trouble whatever in reaping testimonials during her four years at C. H. S. Mim plans to try her hand at the nursing profession, and we are sure that only success awaits her. NATALIE A. DE BLOIS History Circle, French Club, Photography Club, Iunior Prom Committee, Senior Show Committee, Class Book Staff, Orchestra l-2-3-4. And still they gazed and still the wonder grew, How one small head could carry all she knew. Twinkling eyes, flashing dimples, a contagious giggle and here we have a very accurate description of Natalie. Her witty sayings have caused many a class to rock with laughter but all work and no play - well, maybe that's Why Nat's name continually adorned the honor list-each quarter. Natalie's ambition is to be a laboratory technician, and in- deed gay will be the laboratory which is favored with her sunny presence. So say we, the Class of '42, 21

NORA M. D'OI.IMPIO History Circle, Photography Club. , The better hnown, the better is her worth appreciated. Here we have an extremely quiet person with a friendly, pleasing and very refreshing personality. A person of few words, but when she does speak it is generally certain, here is something to say. She has the good fortune to possess a wonderful sense of humor and she always appears to be in the best of spirits. We all know that Nora, although undecided as to future plans, is destined for success. Good luck, Nora. VICTOR D. D'ONOFRIO Tau Sigma, History Circle, Photography Club. On with the dance. Introducing one of the best dancers in the class, as well as one of its most loyal members, Vic D'Onofrio. He has lent his enthusiastic support not only to class but also to school functions, and many a time has been observed giv- ing a perfect example of how a real student of dancing looks in action. Vic's future plans are uncertain but whatever they are 42 wishes you the best of luck, Vic. MARY A. DONAHUE History Circle, Photography Club, Orchestra. My tongue within my lips I rein, For who talks much must talk in vain. Mary, a petite, blonde, blue-eyed girl is one of the most likable members of our class. After her departure she will be noticeably missed, and no doubt, the corridors will seem gloomy in the absence of her radiance. She is a high-ranking student, scholastically and socially. With her flair for testimonials, and her magnetic personality betrayed in her twinkling Irish eyes, Mary is sure to go far on the path of life. THOMAS DRAKOS Football 3-4, Senior Football Club, Photography Club, Tau Sigma, History Circle. He who is good is happy. Tom is, as a general rule, a quiet and studious lad, but when aroused, can hold his own in any conversation. Coupled with his intellectual ability is his athletic prowess, which is evident by his outstanding record as a football player. Toss has no definite ambition but whatever he undertakes in the future, the best wishes of the Class of '42 shall always go with him. 23 .rf
