REELECTIONS OE DEDHAM HIGH SCHOOL 23 ROSEMARY ANN MONAHAN XVhy Roz wants to become a hairdresser rather than a profesf sional pianist, we don't know. XVhatever she does-whether playing the piano or perfecting pompadours-we know she'll get a lot farther than she did in her too good-humored attempts to annoy Mr. Ryan, ALMA RUTH MORITZ Gee whizfu there's no doubt that the grace and suppleness Fritzie has shown in the gym classes and on the dance floor will make her Americas most accomplished dancing teacher. Vvlhen enough pupils. with enough money. have rolled into her school. she'll roll out to the four corners of the earth. THOMAS LAXVRENCE MORRISSEY Mr. Ryan's Macbeth sessions have been a high point in Tom's high school days. Our dependf able butter-andfegg man is greatly interested in aviation and has a fine collection of airplane models tcompeting with the governmentl. His ultimate am- bition is to become an airplane technician. HENRY P. MUCCIACCIO Genial traflic marshal Mooch. lord of the freshman corridor. quelled all frosh wrongdoers with his dignified. Indeed. He was one of our finest football players and his adeptness with his Hsts at St. lVlary's boxing bouts should help him realize his ambition to be a successful pro-athlete. RALPH G. NEAS Since Ralph's arrival at Ded- ham High this year, his popu- larity has blossomed over night. especially among the fairer sex. After graduating from college, he intends to become an army officer and slay our enemies as effectively as his Hudson slays that attraction in the freshman corridor. GEORGE WII-I.IAM NELSON Not even the country club will deter Earl. once he gets started on that business of his own. He's got such a share of enterprise and drive that, no kidding. we're betting his stock goes as high above par as his golf game drops below it. .IAMES C. NESBITT, JR. An expert at finding life at its best, Nez enjoys everything. He'd say. You ain't lying, if you listed hockey, eating, and horses as his favorite pastimes. Varsity track and hockey man. clever actor. and one who can sell the girls anything. Nez plans to enter B. U, to prepare for a business career. EVELYNNE JANE NEWMAN Take a girl with secretarial ambitions, add a year or two at business school. stir in a decided talent for ice skating, season with a generous pinch of good nature. mix Well-and there you have Evie, wondering. Wliere Am I?

22 REFLECTIONS oil DEDHAM HIGH scnoot CI.ARE VIRGINIA MCCARTY If Clare's sales technique con' tinues to be as subtle and suc- cessful as it has been in high school, she needn't fear that she'll waste away her young life selling dog collars to Mr. Ryan. Instead shell climb steadily in the Held of retail merchandising. unless of course some lucky man grabs her hrst. MARGARIZT D. MCGRAIH Next year when Mr. Brennan calls at the McGrath home- stead, Margy will be working as secretary to some big executive, but you bet she'll still find time to come back to the cafe- teria for second recesses, The future holds no terrors for her, now that she's escaped from Mr. Ryan's yardstick. I,OI5TS MCGUIRIE, JR, You can't help liking Mickey. once you meet him. Class vice- president and allrround athlete. he hopes to become a state trooper some day. With his win' ning personality, engaging grin. and a sna7Zy blue uniform. it would be a pleasure to have Mickey give you a ticket for chasing Greyhounds on Route l. .IOHN THOMAS MCNAMARA. JR, JeepersfCreepersf Mack. are you really going way out to l,os Angeles to study to be an instrument technician? It might be a good idea to use that mo' torcycle to get there. In that way you could get in a lot of the night driving you like so much. I WIl.l.IAM MCSEVENEY Willy will roller skate into the Marines as soon as he's IS. and work his way up into their air service. He'll travel far and wide, making thousands of friends who'll take him at his word when he says. Just call me XVilly. MARTHA IVIECKEI. Well, all right. Marty, we believe you when you say you like playing the trumpet and drum majoring. for we've seen you do your stuff at the football games. After you've graduated from Wilfred Academy and be- come a hair stylist, we hope you'll also be able to become a public speaker. VIRGINIA MARGUERITE MILROY . How are ya? air-hostess Ginny will sympathetically ask nervous old ladies taking their first plane rides. No doubt B. D. land othersl will become as fond of sky travel then, as Gin- ny is of dancing. telephoning, and listening to the 920 Club now, DOROTHY ALDEN IVIINER QuietT cries Dot Cwho is never quiet herself? as she sees something tasty climbing into a canoe at Breeds. Is he mare ried? Sometimes he is and sometimes he isn't-that's what makes canoeing such a fascinat- ing sport. We hope she'll find equally fascinating conditions when she goes to work as an ex- pert typist.

24 REELECTIONS OF DEDHAM HIGH SCHOOL JANE MARIE NORWELL When you hear. Oh smooth. Jane is talking about either tall-dark-and-handsomes or tennis. Aspiring to be a sec- retary. she is going to be among the freshmen at Regis College next year. leaving poor Topper to spell all by himself those two-syllable words which Jane excels in. HELEN OBERLANDER May we venture a suggestion. Helen? If you combine your ambitions to be a nurse and criminologist and become a po- lice woman. you will be a valu- able addition to any police force. For then you can make use of your talents for drum majoring by leading the policemen's par- ades on the Fourth of July. JAMES PHILIP OLSON UNO kiddin'. after Jimmy finishes college he'll become such an important engineer he'll have to forsake track, the Rhythm Makers. the drama-all the things he's enjoyed so far. Well. maybe not all. Even engineers can spare time for blondes. RHODA HELEN O'N'EIL Small Fry's chances of becom- ing an expert accountant aren't small at all. Neither are her ac- complishments in photography. She went for our dances in a big way and her fondness for bookkeeping was enormous. Gee whizT Whoever gave her that nickname? FRANCIS J. PASIONEK No kidding. Franny, when you become a flier you can probably use your hobby of pho- tography and get some nice views of Dedham High School. Mean- while. if you will pardon the pun. we shall await develop- ments and hope you will become one of the best pilots. JAMES JOSEPH PATCHIN Two-gun may be his nick- name but he apparently connnes his killing to the ladies. since he tells us his hobby is taking girls to the movies. Next year he'll fmd a job as a machinist. and with the salary that will bring and with his inclinations it looks like prosperous days for Hollywood. DOROTHY ELIZABETH PAYNE Swimming is swell and danc- ing is dandy and working next year may be wonderful, but, oh fish! Dot. there'll come a time when marriage will seem most marvelous of all-particularly when that ideal some one is Johnny on the spot. VIRGINIA PAYNE What's a four-letter word that means a pretty canoeist? Who begins with swimming and ends as a good secretary? Who's the girl whose name-still four letters---is associated with Hi ya, hon? It's Jean. of course. She dotes on crossword puzzles.
