The long is no other than Albert Thompson. Did you ever stop to consider how much brains it ll1USt take to keep such a big boy going? No wonder he always looks so thoughful and pre- occupied. He is probably visualizing that eventful day when he will be a successful engineer or even another Edison. Although Bert has been with us only a year, he has certainly made a definite place for himself and we wish him loads of luck. A. A. C451 Track C431 Chem. C. CD. ELLYCE THOMPSON 80 Greenwood St., Auburn Clarrical lf Ellyce were not the kind of girl she is, we could not really be very well acquainted with her, for she came to Cranston just a year ago from New York State. We surely are glad that Tiny decided to let Cranston High claim her as a graduate. Ellyce has shown her ability in three distinct fields,-athletics, dramatics, and book-learning. Imagine our amazement when she announced that she intends to become a lawyer. And although diminutive, Ellyce can assume a stern demeanor which bodes ill to all law-breakers. Thyr. C.

During her four years at Cranston, Ruth has been not only an active member in the Octave Club and a leader on the bowling teams, but also a faithful member ofthe Athletic Association.

Although talented and widely read in many Helds, poetry may be singled out as the realm in which Bruce has achieved the greatest success, his poems having received recognition in several well-known publications. Bruce's future career is un- decided, but its artistic merit may be looked upon as a certainty. S. C. C4D,' Track Q1 Hi-Y C3D,' Cram. Bd. C4D,' Gr. Lent. Bd. C4D,' Cl, Snr. Com. C4D,' Cl. C.

Probably that is the reason she has been selected to serve on the Dean's Council for two years. Both the Thyrsus and Octave Clubs have claimed her services. She is one of the few who hardly ever have to take home books but, however, has gained membership in the Rhode Island Honor Society. Tlgyr. C. C151 Ort. C. C35 C451 Dmnhr C. C35 C451 A. A.

Often he has convulsed the class with his jokes, puns and what not. Delmont is somewhat in a dilemma as to his future, being torn between a life of travel, which he loves very much, and a college course at Dartmouth. Whichever it is, Delmont is sure to enjoy himself and bring pleasure to TERRY Clarfiml This is Gertrude, whose humorous anecdotes told at tl1e lunch table, have caused Gertrude has done extremely well in her studies but has also had plenty of time for outside activities. We all know that she has made a fine reporter for she has ably written up our high school affairs for the Cranston News. She plans to go to Wheaton in the fall where we know she will continue to uphold the fine reputation she gained here at Cranston, culminating in the winning of the coveted Rhode Island Honor Society pin.

He is very clever at chemistry, and has done many interesting experiments. Eddie spends a lot of his time plowing up and down Park Avenue on his motorcycle and is planning a trip South on this noble steed. Likable and genial, it is with satisfaction that we enjoy the company and friendship of Eddie. A. A- C41' C. M. CD- JESSIE ANNA WRIGHT 137.

Jessie is ambitious to become an expert horsewoman so we predict a future of ups and downs, but feel confident that she will finally land on top. She expects to attend Katherine Gibbs Secretarial School. A. A. CID C3D C4D.' A. D. CID CzDg TQW. C. CID C2D,' Lat. C. CzD,' Tcnnix C331 Bowling C4D,' Sec. H. R. DEAN YOUNG 89 Auburn St., Auburn Scientific When Dean wants to be serious, we can see the student, hard-working, resourceful, and original, the kind that teachers and students like. But let him smile-and there we have the Dean that is so popular in all our social affairs, whether on the dance lloor or engaged in being a live one at a party. With these superlative qualities we have no fears concerning Dean's future. Tlryr. C. C.,iDg Orr. C. C 5D C4D,' Track C3D C4D,' Carlo.
