REFLECTIONS OF DEDHAM HIGH SCHOOL 25 CARL ERIC PEARSON Eric is interested in flying- all kinds of flying. He's been raising homing pigeons for a long time now and soon he'll start working on airplanes. We expect him to combine the best features of each and invent a plane that will find its way home with no help from the radio beams. CHARLES EDMUND PETERSON For the past four years, the happiest note in Big Pete's life has been the 1:15 bell. It is the signal for him to go home, snare his gun. and head for the woods. When you're working next year. Pete, better not take your gun-someone might mis- interpret your intentions. DORIS RAE PETERSON Pete, our general sales mana- ger, has a great habit of saying. I'm telling ya. It isn't nec- essary to tell us. Pete: we know you're going to work in an of- fice next year and become a real business woman. But don't foret to snare that good-look- ing husband you're always tell- ing us about. ROBERT GEORGE PETERSON Pete's love for hunting. Hsh- ing, and the great out-of-doors will lead him some day to the wild and wooly west. where he will take up the life of a cattle dealer. May his loop spread far and wide and only the good dogies come to rest at his ranch. LEO EDWARD PIKE Ye Gods! Pikie. any one who can become an ace-salesman for the play book just by stand- ing on Clark Street corner shouldn't have to look long for a selling position next year. May you find one in an office where there are plenty of pretty girls. LOIS FARNSWORTH PILLING .I.o. collector extraordinary of ship pictures and odd souvenirs, is a pleasant figure at the local public library. Her hobby, ex- tensive reading. may enable her to review the future best sellers with her brief and all-meaning it's terrif. Bound for the University of New Hampshire, Lo hopes to become a full- fledged librarian. JEAN PODOLSKE Jean. one of the three insep- arables, modestly tells us that she fills in leisure hours trying to ski. We hope that she will overcome her habit of wander- ing in at the last moment so that she won't keep the anxious bridegroom fidgeting too long at the altar. JULIA ANNE POLICE Tippie has the audacity to claim that what she enjoyed most in D. H. S. were the cafe- teria's jelly doughnuts. Make a musical note of this girl with a song-writing pastime: though she plans to become a secretary. we see her more clearly as a famous composer.

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.
