He was 0119 of the 111ain props of the track team, where his long legs upheld 11ot only the rest of his considerable figure. but also the honor of Cranston High School.

He is known to be a jolly good fellow and is extremely popular with his friends. Ile has not over-exerted himself with study, but he has left behind a very creditable record. Kingston gains in him an all-round good fellow. E I. I ZAB ICT II PRI M RODS IC GILBICRT Beth Girls' Athletic Association 113 133 3 Thyrsus Club 113 133.

A jolly. giggrly sort of girl is Beth. you sayg but that is not exactly rigrhtg for one Illllllltf-3 she is that way, and the next she is sober and studious. Just glance at her face and see if you don't think she is well named. Doesn't the Elizabeth stand for tl1e part of her nature that makes her study before nine o'clock. and doesn't the Primrose represent the happy, joyful side that makes her smile and reveal to us her bewitchingr dimples? Beth plans to become a nurse, which is just the future we would pick out for her. since her serious half will allow her to be capable and reliable. while she can use her smily half to cheer those worse off than herself.

The poet speaks truly. for when Marion begins to laugh. no one can remain sober. 1She just has to laugh or else talk, and no one can talk forever. She does 11ot seem to mind the. stern glances of the teachers at all. But d0n't think that Marion does nothing but have a good time. She finds time enough to be serious so that sl1e studies and has her lessons well. ttliigglesu expects to enter the Rhode Island Uollege of Education i11 the fall and prepare to be- co111e a teacher. IVe know she will be liked there just as she has been at Cranston. 20

DORIS DAVENPORT Thyrsus Club 115 125 135 1453 Dramatic Division 125 135 1459 Girls' Athletic Association 135 1453 Good English League 125. Coquctry fix the essential f'1lflll'l1I7f07'f.S'fiC and the prcralcnzf humor of ufonzcn-. 'tDash is an applicable name for Dorisgdashinge-full of life and pep. Things are kept humming wherever she is. Who will forget Doris's songs in the Minstrel Show last year or her acting in school iplays? Although Mr. Bosworth h2lSl1't 'become weary reading her name in honor lists, her scholastic record is good. In January, the orchestra lost a faithful violin-ist and we a jolly companion when she went to Mrs. Gi'bb's secretarial school. It is easier to think of singing, dancing, fiddling Doris as an entertainer than as a quiet secretary. Perhaps, after all, she will go to college or to a dramatic school in the fall. ANNA CLARA DOLAN K'All11!, Girls' Athletic Association 115 125 135 1453 Thyrsus Club 115 125 145g Minstrel wShow 135 1453 Executive Com- mittee 145. Qin open-hcurtccl maiden, true and pure. Seldom do we see Anna without her jolly smile and other half, Peggy. Ann is another one of the stay-until-June's. and we are glad to have her with us. She has been in the Minstrel Show for the past two years. Ann makes charm- ing hats, too, and once in Oral Expression she showed us how to do it. We predict that she will be the owner of a fashionable millinery shop unless she dec-ides to be a phar- macist. No matter whether it is making hats or filling prescriptions, we believe she will do it well. JOHN MICHAEL DROITCOUR Johnny Boys' Athletic Association 125 135 1453 Thyrsus Club 125 135 145: Dramatic Division 1353 Track 125 1353 Captain 145 g CI'fHl8f0'lLfU'I1' Business Manager 145. UO true in word, and tricrl in deed. iff. H. S. was fortunate when Johnny came from Ohio three years ago. for he is one of our Ulive wires. He stars in the pole-vault. and several times the interscholastic record has been almost within his reach. He has shown ability as an actor in the Thyrsus Club plays. His rc- lialrility as Business Manager has guided this year's 1Yran..Qton,i11n to Hnancial success. John's hobby is 'building boats, and he is just as enthusiastic and capable a worker in this as we find l1i1n in school life. His future is un- decided, but his brains and ability will bring him any posi- tion he may desire. 19

We commend her as one of those who make Cranston such a line school. There is seldom a committee or organization among the upper classmen in which she doesn't hold an important office, and to which she doesnt lend her ability as a leader. Mid has a particular talent for poetryg and as for oratory, we listen to her with awe. Combined with these sterling qualities are a love of fun, a charming dis- position. and a thoroughly delightful sneeze. XVe know that when she goes to Brown with the other musketeers. she will do as much good and be as much loved as here. WILLIAM l'll,I,SWOR'l'IfI GUULD, JR.

He has made a name for himself in baseball and hockey of which he can well be proud. Although not a lover of books, he has per- severed and has iinished his course with credit. His happy disposition does not let worry interfere with his peace of mind. As a result. his face is habitually decorated with his now well known smile. He intends to join the Fresh- men at Brown next year, HANNA'll BICLLE 19OI,'l.IJING Thyrsus Club 125 135 1-153 Girls' Athletic Association 125 135 145 g Good English League 125. Two so full and In'ight-- r Such eyes! In school we have had very little reason to think that Belle is not a quiet girl, but people on her telephone liue say otherwise. She came to us only a year zlllll a half ago from Tech. 'In that short time. we have found her to be a pleasant and interesting: -classmate. She is a line seam- stress: we have often wondered how she tinds time to make all of her clothes. Vnlike many of us. she has thc courage to disagree with some tliings that are said at class meet- ings and to express her ONVII opinions and make suggestions. Belle left in February and is at present working. 21
