VIRGINIA AGNES GASPARIAN COMMERCIAL COURSE “Nay, I shall never be aware of mine own wit ’Til I break my shins against it.” Twinkling brown eyes, a smiling, dimpled face and rippling laughter — put them all together and you get “Virge,” our actress, who played a prominent part in Inter-class Dramatics both Junior and Senior years. Her fun-loving sunny disposi- tion has earned, for her, many friends. She was always present at class functions and always ready to get into the spirit of things. “Virge’s” future is still undecided but whatever it is, best wishes from the Class of ' 49.

The convertible, along with his prized red hair, accounts for his numerous friends. He was one of the first boys in our class to enlist in the National Guard and has achieved the rank of Sergeant. Happy sailing, “Foo,” from the Class of ' 49. Photography Club — History Circle - — Le Cercle Francais — Tau Sigma NICHOLAS GEORGESON COLLEGE COURSE “A friend in need is a friend indeed.” “Nick,” with his good nature, natural wit, and excellent appearance, has made many friends during his school years. He is a constant and loyal supporter of all High School activ- ities and we hear from a reliable source that he is also an ardent baseball fan. Whatever career claims him, the Class of ' 49 wishes him the very best of luck. Photography Club — History Circle — Tau Sigma ELIZABETH ANN GIBBONS COLLEGE COURSE “Popularity lasts forever.” “Betty” can always be found where there is fun and laugh- ter; at school, at dances, or at athletic events. Her charming personality has won her many friends, and although “Betty” took part in many social activities, she managed to keep her marks up to par. We feel sure that whatever field she chooses, she will attain her goal. Good luck, “Betty,” from “49.” Photography Club — History Circle — Le Cercle Francais — Junior Prom Committee ■ — Junior Marshal

MARY ELIZABETH GABOURY COL LEGE COURSE ‘‘Just me— carefree — happy as a lark.” A vivacious, brown-eyed, fun-loving girl, Mary, with her pleasing personality has won a host of friends at Clinton High School. She has been an enthusiastic supporter of our athletic teams, and has contributed greatly to the success of our social activities. Mary’s ambition is to become a medical secretary, and we feel that our loss is the medical profession’s gain.

The din is terrific. She has a wonderful sense of humor, is popular, and well-liked by her classmates. Eleanor manages to keep her marks up to average and we expect her to do well in whatever work she takes up after graduation. Best of luck, Eleanor, from the Class of ’49. Photography Club — History Circle — Band 1, 2 ELINOR MARIE GANNON COLLEGE COURSE “She was athletic and studious, so it seemed. Wise, good-natured and esteemed.” One of the outstanding members of our class, with a mis- chievous grin and hearty laugh — that’s Elinor. Her popular- ity is proof of her gay humor and cordiality, while her high scholastic record shows her patience and perseverance. A pleasing manner, and a sparkling wit will be missed by all when we bid Elinor best wishes for her future at the Univer- sity of Massachusetts.

She is an all-round sports enthusiast and a regular attendant at all Clinton High School events. She is often seen around town driving a classy new convertible Buick. Jean plans to enter Barry College, where we predict for her many friends and much success. As the Class of ' 49 leaves Clinton High School, we are both proud and happy that Jean is one of us.

JOSEPH PATRICK GILL GENERAL COURSE “A stout heart and body.” “Joe” is a carefree and happy member of our class. His good nature is known to all Clinton High students. His ser- ious side is evidenced by his regular attendance on drill night at the Armory as he is a member of the National Guard. He is working afternoons at Van Brodie’s at present, but his plans for the future are undecided. Good luck, “Joe,” from the Class of ’49. Photography Club — History Circle — Tau Sigma ELVIO JOSEPH GIOVANN ANGELO GENERAL COURSE ‘‘Jest and youthful jollity.” “Al,” a husky, good-natured, curly-haired boy who proudly hails from Burditt Hill, never had much time for school sports as he works for the First National Stores but, judging from the number of friends he has, it is very apparent that he has a winning personality and a special ability to make friends. Everyone is sure that success will come to you, Elvio, so “So long and good luck” from “49.” Photography Club — History Circle — Tau Sigma SABINA JOSEPHINE GOLAS GENERAL COURSE “Her grace and charm one can’t deny.” At first appearance Sabina seems quite demure, but looks are deceiving. She is quiet and studious in class, but is full of fun and grand company outside. She is an all-round sports enthusiast and is a constant attendant at all the Clinton High School games. She can also be seen enjoying herself at all school socials. Sabina plans to enter a business school and the Class of ' 49 wishes her lots of luck. Photography Club — History Circle — Junior Marshal MARGARET GOODMANSON COMMERCIAL COURSE “The smile that won’t come off.” Margaret, who hails from the North End, is an attractive brunette with a flair for wearing lovely clothes, which would be the envy of any model. She has been a strong supporter of our athletic teams during her stay at Clinton High School. Margaret has the ability and persistence to become a great success in reaching any goal that she may set for herself. Whatever this goal may be, she has the best wishes of the Class of ’49.
