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

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

 Zhtoati L'IllSS f .AGG,6mf- n vy s - • s db£ - MGADME ma MARY THERESA FENTON 30 Van Horn Place The song, When Irish Eyes Are Soiling , might indeed have been written for Mary who has been Treasurer of the Knitting Club and has served on the Freshman Reception Committee. What a light gleams in her eyes when she talks about operating for the Telephone Company! Keep plugging, Mary. JOSEPH FERRARO 168 Allen Street Windy's love of excitement, together with the speed he gained in football and baseball, should make him an ace in the Royal Canadian Air Force. Here, his good humor and cheery smile will earn him many friends. IRMA JULIA F0NGAR0 104 Marble Street Dark-haired, red-fingernailed Irma has been active in the Nisimaha and Circolo Dante Clubs. Her radiant smile has also made her a valuable asset in her work with the Home Management Librarians, the Squad Leaders, the Modern Dance Group, the G. 0. Agents, and the ushers of Pinafore . ANNA FRANGUS 815 Armory Street Ann, whose sparkling brown eyes actually speak for her, has been efficient and industrious in Commerce. 'Though somewhat quiet and reserved, Ann has contributed her share by serving on the Cap and Gown Committee, and by assisting her homeroom Caduceus editors. VIRGINIA FLORENCE FRAVESI 37 Tremont Street ELAINE DOROTHY ANN FRAZIER 48 Kensington Avenue Should anyone want a sensible, jovial girl who has had experience as a Home Room Secretary-Treasurer, he should report to Bunny, who would be willing to work after office hours if her future employer were tall, dark, and handsome. RAYMOND HENRY FREDETTE 38 Arch Street Although rather quiet, Ray is well liked by all who know him. He has become a valuable member of the Hi-Y and the Boys' Patrol. Can't you picture him some future day as a model husband, and dependable, agreeable boss? RICHARD C. FROST 27 Phoenix Street Anchors away for Frosty! All-around men are needed by the Navy. Frosty's experience in football, basketball, baseball, and on the Boys' Patrol should qualify him physically for this Job. His social experience, gained from ushering at Pinafore , and his fondness for the feminine sex, may increase once he dons a U. S. Navy uniform. Ginger, Captain of the Interschool Basketball Squad and of Hockey, Baseball, and Basketball, soon won the coveted G.A.A. Pin. She has participated in volley ball, fencing, the Freshman Reception, the G. 0. Dance Committee, and Class Day, for which she wrote the play, A Typical American Home . Ginger also enjoyed her work with the Girls' Patrol, the Caduceus Editorial Committee, and the G.A.A., of which she was Secretary-Treasurer. I
