No, never! Her pleasing personality and grand sense of humor have made her a friend to all. As she especially enjoys helping others, she has served as a Student Librarian, and as a member of the Senior Decoration Committee. CELIA ELIZABETH DENTON 53 Howard Street Although especially devoted to Uncle Sam's fighting forces, Celia still has found time for membership in the Riding Club, the Squad Leaders, Nisimaha, and the Crimson Masquers. An unexpected interest in books seemed to be indicated by her very efficient service in both the School and tho Home Management Libraries. No one yet has solved that puzzle! ARGENTINA CAMILLIA DE PILATO 20 Norman Street A real sports enthusiast, Argie has participated in many after-school sports. Her Girls' Sports column in Commerce”, her lively co-operation in the Circlo Dante Club, on the Lunch Room Squad, and as Caduceus agent, have given Argie much well-earned praise. Argie also has served on the XIIA Executive and Promenade Committees. EDYTHE E. DeVALL 67 Kensington Avenue Edythe is, supposedly, a quiet person, but those who really know her say she is quite the opposite. Her little tongue is never still. Talk it must, and talk it will. Edythe has especially enjoyed the activities of the Junior Outing Club, of which she has been an enthusiastic member. BEATRICE AGATHA DICKSON 34 Tyler Street Music-loving Dickie, who has belonged to the Orchestra and has been on the Ticket Committee of the Music Festival, wants to be. strangely enough, not a music critic, not a member of an orchestra, but a comptometer operator! Well, vocations as well as avocations must be considered in these war times. ARMOREN DONIGIAN 16 Beauregard Street, Indian Orchard As neatness is one of Amoren's chief assets, we were not surprised to see her in a Fashion Show assembly. Some day we expect to find her a buyer in one of the country's largest clothing stores. Any chance of discounts to class members, Armoren? ROBERT LEO DONNELLY 32 Ralph Street Good-natured Bob has attained two of the highest goals a boy can achieve in Commerce. He has been a member of the Hi-Y and of the Boys' Patrol. Although small in build. Bob was speedy enough to make the Football team, on which he played guard. ELIZABETH McCOLL DOW 403 Orange Street Lost, in the vicinity of Commerce, one short, sandy-haired girl, conspicuous for a winning smile and a sprinkle of freckles. Quiet-mannered and very soft-footed, sho will answer to the name of Betty. When last seen she was attending a meeting of the Ban- quet Committee. Any clues? ImWH

OLGA ANN COMINI 52 Wilcox Street Raven-haired Olga's sparkling personality will be a decided asset to her in the future. Her eagerness to lend a helping hand made her Treasurer of Circolo Dante and an enthusiastic member of Miss Libby's band of librarians. Tiny Olga looked lost in our big library. CARMELLA MARIE COMPANO 934 Berkshire Avenue, Indian Orchard Carmella has very often been compared with a mechanical toy; she's all wound up, but never seems to run down! She became a member of the Nisimaha Club, and acted as on usher for the graduation of the class of 1942. If you decide to give a party, Carmella would be glad to help you plan your fun. GEORGE PAUL COOK 59 High Street Although seemingly quiet. Cookie has been a Class Repre- sentative, a member of the Boys' Patrol, and has ployed on the Baseball and Basketball teams. George's real interest, however, lies outside of these activities. His heart belongs to music— especially to drumming. At Commerce he was the drummer for Pina- fore and American Fantasia . What's your goal, Cookie, Kruppa's equal? RUTH COOPER 188 Commonwealth Avenue Ruth would love nothing better than lounging: yet she has encountered many interruptions from Le Foyer, Radio Workshop, Caduceus , and the First Aid Class. Ruthie also sacrificed her love of loafing when she worked for the Christmas and the Civics Assembly Programs, as an Usher, a Homeroom Reporter, in the XB Fashion Show, and on two Senior Committees. DORIS PAULINE CORMIER 30 Commonwealth Avenue Whenever Doris is around, laughter is sure to abound! Smiling Dot has been a member of the Banquet Ticket Committee and of the Nisimaha Club. She has been a Squad Leader, and an usher at a P. T. A. meeting and the Christmas Assembly Program After-school store work seemed to increase her genuine love of people. HILDA MARGARET CUMMING 20 Vermont Street Hilda has crammed all she possibly could into her school days. Besides singing in the Glee Club and being in the Squad Leaders and Modern Dance group, she has won C's and her G. A. A. Pin for hockey, soccer, basketball, and baseball. To fill her time, Hilda has been a member of Nisimaha, the Girls' Patrol, and Commerce and Caduceus Staffs. Not a wasted minute for Hilda! SHIRLEY RUTH CUTTING 92 Miller Street Shirley's beautiful penmanship, which won her a certificate, proved its value when she was called upon to address invitations for the January and June Class Promenade and Banquet. Shirley has been a member of the Student Library Service and an usher at a Class Dance. EDA ANNE DANIELE 254 Hancock Street Such lively spirit and animation as one sees reflected in Eda's eyes is characteristic of her participation in the First Aid Class, Christmas Assembly Program, the Radio Workshop, and Promenade and Banquet Committees. Gay, too. was her work as G. 0. Agent, Student Librarian, and Co-chairman of ushering for the Christmas Assembly.

I BETTE MARY COWNEY 11 Walden Street The jingle jangle you have heard in the morning doesn't belong to a pair of spurs, but to one of Rusty's dangling charm bracelets as she has wandered about our corridors hustling up articles for Commerce or for Caduceus . Bette's school life has included the Knitting and Nisimaha Clubs, ushering at school plays and dances, acting on the Promenade Committee, and enjoying the Girls' Patrol. HELEN ELIZABETH DuBOSE 62 Essex Street Always laughing, always cheerful, Betty has added a ray or sunshine to the library where she has served as Student Librarian. When not among the books, or practising for those successful speed tests in Stenography, Helen has been in the Assembly Hall, adding her clear, natural voice to the Glee Club. RAYMOND LAWRENCE DUPRE 3378 Main Street As the band marched down the field, one could see Ray, dapper-looking in his uniform, strutting along playing his trom- bone. Sometime you may find him leading his own band. Before that day, however, we feel sure that in another uniform Ray will add much to the musical entertainment of our Army or Navy boys! ROSLYN RUTH EPSTEIN 117 Jefferson Avenue When you see an eye peering through a keyhole, or an ear cocked inquiringly toward you, prepare yourself for the next issue of Commerce : for Roslyn is an excellent news reporter! She has managed, also, to rind time to be Vice-President of the Knitting and Stamp Clubs, to serve on several committees, and to do special office work for Mr. A. H. Smith. MARGARET LOUISE ERTEL 82 College Street Always anxious to do her part, co-operative Margaret has taken on her duties as Student Librarian and G. 0. Homeroom Agent with real vigor and enthusiasm. She further has proved her usefulness to her Alma Mater by serving on the Senior Program Committee, and by participating in the Nisimaha Club's activities. MARGARET ANNE EVANS 366 Nottingham Street Margaret's calm manner is envied by the more boisterously inclined persons in her class. However, she has participated in many sports. As a member of the Senior Program Committee, Margaret has shown her willingness to enter into less vigorous activites. JOSEPH GEORGE FARMER 14 Superior Avenue, Indian Orchard For three years, Joe has dashed around the corridors seek- ing some member of the Boys' Patrol, a Caduceus editor, or news for his sports column in Commerce . Joe also has enjoyed his work as speaker during Education Week and in the G. 0. Assembly; as Treasurer of the Student Council, a member of the Hi-Y, usher for the Promenade, and as a committeeman for the XIB Social. Joe is a fine mixer! FREDERICK WILLIAM FARRELL 810 Belmont Avenue Picture experienced Fred, collector of G. 0. and Caduceus money, as the Morgenthau of 1955! When he has achieved this position, we hope he will contribute his surplus millions for publicity for the Baseball and Basketball teams, of which he was an enthusiastic member. We might get a few more boys in this way! . . Ccrnt U :- CU Ida , ns. u- ,trrzs as
