NIMROD ARVID OLSEN AiNlIl1', Boys' Athletic Association 113 123 133 1-13. lf is II point of uiisdom to be silent. Nimrod -sounds like L'Allegro or Il Penseroso. But Nimrod is no fairy. Ile is the bright spot of the Physics class, ill the entertainment which he contributes rather than in his enlightening explanations of the various laws of science. Olsen was an Algebra shark in his FI'QSl1lll21I1 year, and is still more or less of a inathelnatician. He has 11ot told us whether he is going to be a janitor or a bank president. but we know that he is well qualified for either position.

Most blanzclesx is hc, ccnicrcd in The splzcre of 111017111211 duties. Harold is. as you all know, our baseball manager. Al- most as well known as Harold is his car, the famous H2707, which can be seen in back of the school almost any day. either in suinmer or in winter. The fact that Harold is an experienced chauileur is shown by the fact that he is oflicial pilot of the ball teanl. His election as baseball manager for two years is but one instance of his popularity. Harold also scored a success as Bob Cratcliit in Dickens' i'f'hl'lStllltlS I'arol.

A-ind most rlilfiucly fair. How insignificant the rest of us look when we stand beside Sadie! She has been a basketball star for several years and made an excellent captain in her Senior year. She can niake speeches, too. Do you 1'Q1ll9ll1ll6I' her argu- ment in behalf of the Student Council? Sadie is a true friend and popular with all her classmates. lVhether it is a case of athletics or dances, 'Sallie is always an enthusiastic supporter. However. she isn't as carefree as this sounds. In fact, she is already devoting her life to a noble work, as she has begun her career as a nurse at the Rhode Isla11d Hospital. 31

JENNIE MELONE Girls' Athletic Association 113 123 133 143g Thyrsus Club 1135 Good English League 123. 'tThe social smiley the sympathetic tear. Jennie! I-low well that name suits our quiet Jennie Wren. Jennie is a very earnest pupil. who always has her lessons prepared, especially her Latin, even though her translation of Virgil does sometimes wander a bit. She finds plenty of time, however, to be an interesting a11d sympathetic friend. Jennie expects to enter Brown next year, and if she studies there as hard as she has at Cranston. there is no doubt that she will succeed in what- ever she undertakes as her future work.

His eye begets occasion for his witg For every object that the one doth catch The other turns to 11 mirtlz-morioig jest. This born co111edian holds the palm for manufacturing laughs. He has left behind him a very good record in his studies, in spite of his happy disposition. Ile also shines as a dramatic star in the Thyrsus Club plays. Many a time and oft has he shown his sterling qualities in every department of school life. It goes without saying that he is popular in view of his many accomplishments. Although not decided as to his plans for the future, he is destined, we feel, for success, and we are certain that he will make his mark. MILDRFID MARGARET MILLER Mil, t'Mi1lie.

HRobe1l in the Zeng night Of her deep hairf' Here is our Mil with the snapping black eyes and jet black, wavy hair. Mil has great musical talent. She plays tl1e piano exceedingly well. In fact, she is at pres- ent teaching piano lessons. She sings well, and the Glee Club will miss her voice when she graduates. Milly is a very ambitious girl, indeed. She expects to go to the Rhode Island College of Education in the fall and to con- tinue teaching piano at the same time. Such enthusiasm as Mil's will make her a success either as a school teacher or piano teacher. 30
