TYHOMA S ANTHONY LEANDRO 'tTommy Boys' Athletic Association 125 135 145. 'tl leave thy praises 1me,1f1n'essr-rl. '1'ommy came to us only three years ago. For this 1'eason and because he is a very modest, quiet young man, we haveu't become thoroughly acquainted with him. Those who know him like hi1n and say that he is a good sport in every sense of the word. Tommy seems to be quite popular with the opposite sex and is an ardent supporter of athletics. He plans to go to Massachusetts Agricultural College. MARGARET El1SPl'lTH MACKAY ..I,eggyYy, ..Mego Girls' Athletic Association 115 125 135 145g Thyrsus Club 115 125 135 1453 Minstrel Show 135 1455 Class Vice- President 125 1353 Basketball 135 1453 Good English League 125. Tho sweetest lady of the time. Peggy is a cute little girl with a shy, misvhievous smile. She has a big place, however, in our aifevtions. as she is very obliging and a good sport. One morning she crushed a black stocking mask over her nicely curled loc-ks just to let us see how funny it looked. lVho else would have thus gladly risked the appearance of her coiffure to oblige us? You can depend on her to do her part. whether it's fun or lessons. For the last two years she has sung in the min- strel show chorus. 'She is interested in athletics, having played on the basketball team, taken part in field day sports at Rocky Point, and led one of the l'0011lS in physical training. MARGARET GOODWVI N MAR-CRO FT Madge Girls' Athletic Association 115 125 135 g Thyrsus Club 115 125 135 1453 Glee Club 115 135 1455 CI'lIH8f01l-il1'1l, Board 1253 Class Vice-President 135. A fair 0.rferior is fl silent rf'f'o11znzmulafionfi Madge is one of those to whom a business career appeals. To that end she has spent her time with us in a1'qu'i1'ing a little knowledge of the affairs of the commercial world. Madge expects to be a private secretary some time in the future, but we wonder why Miss Boody doesn't influence her to be a chef de cuisine. -Those who have sampled her cooking know she'd be a success. We all like Madge, and we know that the man who gets her for a secretary is in luck. 26
