ETHEL STREETER Skeeis” was chosen as the most dignified member of the class, but do not come to the conclusit)n that this dignity was cold auster- ity for you could not find a warmer friend than Ethel. She would like to turn her hobby, photography, into a vocation. JOSEPH SULLIVAN This young man’s immediate future will be spent in Navy blue. Joe enjoys many sports and hob- bies, but he says that he doesn’t like girls of any description. Joe always did justice to the lunch period. PATRICdA SULLIVAN Thoroughness and efficiency are Pat’s” outstanding recom- mendations and what could be better c]ualifications for a nurse? We are sure that Pat has not only the abilit)’ but the temperament for her chosen work. ROSE TAGEIONE Perhaps we are revealing a secret, but Rose says that her plans for next year include mar- riage. However, she neglected to mention the lucky man’s name. Perhaps she will still have time to visit her favorite movies. JCHEPH VENTRESCO We’ll always remember Joe’s good natured smile and his ability to hold his own in the line on that undefeated and unscoretl upon football team. Joe’s chief interests are chemistry and avia- tion, which he may follow m the Army. SUSAN VISCARIELLO Sewing has long been a hobby with Sue, but now she intends to use it in her chosen work. Busy, though she may be. Sue says that she will still find time to carry on her roller-skating. ARTHUR WALKER Here is another young man who answered the call of Uncle Sam for whom he worked at the Dedham Post Office before enter- ing the service. Arthur will make the grade in whatever field he enters after the war. CHARLES WARD We will all remember Mont- gomery’s” cheery Hi Kid” and know that he will make good in the Navy next year. After the war his ambition to own his own cabinet making business in New Elampshire will be realized. ALICE WHITE Oh, what a life,” is ' Tally’s” favorite expression, and possibly that is what envious persons wdl say of her secretarial position. We know that Alice will be a suc- cess in the business world. Mr. Ryan and Tomm)’ Dorsey are her favorites. TI lOMAS WHITTEN Tommy intends to continue on his present job. Automobiles wdl play an important part in his life, both in work and pleasure. Tommy has always been a de- pendable supporter of all class •ictivities anti will become one of our substantial citizens. DEDHAM HIGH SCHOOL Page 25

MERILYN SHAW What better name than Merry” could one find for a per- son who greets the world with such a pleasant smile? Merry’s” plans lead her to Simmons College, anti we know she will make the fine librarian she hopes to be. ANNE SEIEPHERD Quiet, consciencious, and ethei- ent Anne will be a success in any endeavor. We discovered that under that shy and retiring man- ner we had a real friend ever ready to help a fellow cl.issmate. ERANCES SHEPHERD Frances will do well in what- ever field she enters for she has the qualities which will inevitably spell success. Eler classmates will remember her as a fine .student and a real friend. I RANK SHERMAN W ' hitey’s” ability to solve dif- ficult problems in mathematics and his friendly manner will bring success to his endeavor not only in the U. S. Coast Guard but in the business world after the war. RAEPH SHIEEDS This young man is a pltigger who decides upon a goal and then sets about achieving it. When he says that he hopes to enter the field of aviation, we know his training in mathematics and the sciences qualify him for the work he desires. EDITH SIAS Although Edie” was a new comer to Dedham High this year, she quickly won our hearts by her quiet and unassuming manners. She plans to enter training to be- come a nurse next fall at the Quincy Elospital and continue her many hobbies. EUGENE SMITH Because Gene” was voted the best-looking boy in the senior class, don’t get any false impres- sion, for he was a real football and basketball player, one who could give and take with the best of them. NANCY SPIERS This talented young lady has a penchant for decorating homes and perhaps this will be her voca- tion as well as a hobby when Nancy completes her college course. We shall remember Nancy as a good student, a fine musician, and a firm friend. HELEN STAEIE An honor graduate and one of our most active class members, Betty says that her ambition is to buy a farm in New Hampshire and sleep until ten o’clock every morning. We know that Betty will never lack friends. JEAN STAPLES Yes, this is Stapes — a senior whom we all know and like a lot. Jean plans to go to college next fall while waiting for her O.A.O. to return. With her musical ability and pleasing per- sonality, Stapes will achieve suc- cess, we all agree. Page 24 DEDHAM HIGH SCHOOL

BARBARA E. WILLIS Barb” is eminently qualibetl for her chosen work, nursing, b)’ temperament, ability, and experi- ence. She will enter the Deacon- ess School of Nursing. We shall always remember Barb” playing the cello in the orchestra. ROBER1 ' WINTl lROP Hardworking Bob has always given of his time and energy to all the class activities. He was president in our freshman and sophomore years. Bob’s persever- ance and initiative promise suc- cess in the field of radio-advertis- ing. CAROL WOODWARD The cry with Woodie” is Let’s go!” This popular young lady will attend the Wilson School where she will train to become a laboratory technician in which capacity she would like to serve in the Marines. ELEANOR YOUNG Perhaps it is because she wants to be a school teacher that Elbe” has been observing Topper’s” methods so carefully. Remember you were a kid once yourself, Elbe.” LUCY ZINNI If you see someone studying hard, you’ll know that Lulu” is doing her school work. A real student, she intends to be a stenographer, and we know if she works as she did in school, it won’t be long before she’ll achieve her ambition. ELAINE BUTLER But’s” d rums were a regular feature in our assemblies. We hope she will be as happy be- ing a stenographer next year as she has been in the orchestra and will save a little time out to fulfill her ambition to fly. GEORGE PATCHIN As the photograph indicates, George has already joined Uncle Sam’s Blue Jackets. His pleasant good humor and interest in me- chanical things should help him now and in his postwar career. RICHARD DEDHAM The Army Air Corps is Dick’s immediate goal, but he hopes to continue in the field of aviation after the war, another example of a hobby being turned into a voca- tion. We have confidence in Dick’s success. PETER MADONNA How the time dragged for Peter while he awaited the call of the Merchant Marine! He will have an opportunity to realize his ambition of seeing the world and of serving his country at the same time. KENNETH NADEAU Ken will be employed as an assistant manager in a Quincy store until such time as he re- ceives a call from the U. S. Army. Ken has taken a prominent part in the social affairs of the class. IRVING NEGRINI Irv” was one of the first to answer the Army’s call, but his classmates will never forget his unusual ability and courage on the gridiron and basketball court. JOSEPH LEVANGIE Joe” left early in the year to join the armed forces. The abil- ity to see a silver lining no matter how dark the cloud will always make his companionship sought.
