Paul Richard Flannagan lest and youthful jollity. Phiddie -the iovial wit, the affable lad-has left definite footprints on the C. H. S. sands. His quiet, unassuming manner has gained for him many friends who will miss his pleasant and cheerful companionship. Phiddie's gay, nonchalant and cheerful disposi- tion is a definite gloom-chaser. He always has a cheery Hi for everyone, that is why he is so well-liked by all his classmates. He enioys sports, driving, and playing pool at Maury's. Phiddie plans to become a general contractor. We are sure he will make a success of whatever he attempts to do. We, the Class of '50, wish him the best of luck. History Circle, Tau Sigma, Junior Prom Committee. Marlene Marie Freitag Gay is her personality-pleasing is she, You'll miss her, just wait and see! Just gaze upon the many activities of this young lady and then you'll appreciate her worth to a greater degree. There have been very few things going on that Mar has not had a hand in, and she has usually contributed a great deal to their success. Her popularity was proved when she was picked as the Typical C. H. S. Girl. Good marks are something that Mar never had to pray for, seeing that she absorbs knowledge naturally. Because of her many accomplishments, we feel sure that Mar will have a bright college career. To her, C. H. S. says, Best of luck!

Mary Gauthier A thing of beauty is a ,oy forever. This carefree and gay young miss hails from the Acre district and has made a host of friends with her cordiality and winning smile. She is an enthusiastic sports fan and enioys swimming, dancing, skiing, and skating tremendously. Mary also finds a great interest in the study of music and art. In school, she is always seen working earnestly. Mary plans to attend a business school after graduating, but has not selected any special one. We hope her attempt in the secretarial world will be successful. Junior Prom Committee, History Circle, Le Cercle Francais. Mary Margaret Gibbons I'm so carefree, l'm so free, Why can't they all be content like me. Laughing brown eyes, a pretty face, radiant complexion, that's Mary. lt is with sincere regret that the Class of '50 bids farewell to Gibby one of its most popular students. Gib's vivacious personality has won the esteem and friendship of both students and teachers, and although no social or athletic function was ever complete without her, she has managed to have her name appear on the testimonial list. Mary plans on a business career and we are certain that whatever she does, and wherever she goes, she will un- doubtedly attain inevitable success.

Joan Duggan Beauty seen is never lost. Tradition has it that beautiful women are not very intelligent, but Clinton High School is graced with the exception to this maxim in Joan. She has always enioyed notable success in her studies and her loveliness is attested by the fact that she was chosen Miss Clinton of i9-19. She has a fine singing voice and exceptional art skill which we may hear from in later life. Her graceful, lady-like manner, combined with her dancing ability, make her always a favorite at social functions. May success and good fortune follow you forever, Joan. Junior Prom Committee, History Circle, Class Ring Committee. Edward Duplin Natural, friendly, popular and nifty, Best of luck, Ed, from the Class of Fifty. Ed, a dark, curly'haired senior, is one of the most popular members of our class. He has proven himself an outstanding athlete, displaying excellent ability while holding center position on the Green and Gold football team. Always active in class functions, Ed was elected Class Treasurer during his iunior year. Ed plans to enter the field of elec- trical engineering upon graduation, and we, the Class of '50, are assured that success will be his. Good luck, Ed.

Jim is one of those strong, silent men that are all too uncommon in C. H. S, Those who are lucky enough to know him intimately value his friendship very highly. Jim is an enterprising student as is shown by his taking a technical course even though he has been working long and hard after school hours during his entire high school career. Although Jim hasn't yet decided upon his future life work, we, his fellow students, know he will succeed in whatever field of endeavor he may choose. Tau Sigma, History Circle. Eleanor Marie Ferry So much to do, so little done. Gay and witty are only two of Ele's many good characteristics. She is one of our popular senior girls and her popularity has gained many friends for her, during her high school career. Having dancing as her main hobby, she can usually be found at the V. F. W. Hall when a class dance is going on. As she comes from a long line of florists, she, too, plans to go into that field. Her plans are to enter Boston University to study Floral Designing. We know that, being well-suited for this work, she will be a big success in it. History Circle, Junior Prom Committee.

Gordon Godard The situation is well in hand. Gord, as he is known to his friends and classmates, comes from the well-known Cedar Hill district although much of his time is spent on Burditt Hill. When not playing football, Gord worked for his father in the afternoons but always managed to keep his marks near the testimonial group. His favorite song is Just Because, while his favorite expres- sion is Wait 'til l'm through eating. Gord's future plans are to attend Tuft's College. We're sure the whole class wishes him the best of luck in the future. Tau Sigma, Junior Prom Committee, Class Book Staff, Football 3, 4. John Gorman Laughter brings smiles from those around. The Duck Harbor district has made a fine contribution to C. H. S. in the personage of John. His dark curly hair, be-freckled countenance, and winning smile, tend to make John one of the most friendly members of our class. He is a firm believer in looking on the bright side of life, a true optimist in every sense of the word. An ardent sports enthusiast, a staunch supporter of class activities, o keen dresser-that's John. Although his plans for the future are not definite, whatever he does, wherever he goes, John carries with him the best wishes for success from the Class of '50. Elizabeth Arm Grealis To see her is to like her, to know her is to love her. Intelligence, friendliness, versatility, blended with a rare disposition and a genuine nature -these are the qualities which make Betty an outstanding member of the senior class. Betty is an accomplished pianist, has clearly demonstrated her talent as an actress in the lnter-class Play, and was an active participant in all school and social affairs. Not to be overlooked is the high scholastic record which she has achieved and maintained throughout her school years. The Class of '50 will always remember you, Betty, and every wish for future happiness and success is yours.
