Wham! There goes a ball flying over center field. Yep, that's our Sylvia. Not only does she excel in softball but in basketball she is the spectacular half of the Eaton- Billings guard combination. Athletics are not Sylvia's only successes, for she is a whiz at bookkeeping and short- hand. Oh, yes, we almost forgot her favorite hobby-col- lecting rare coins-especially Guineas GERALDINE ELVA HASKELL 'tGeW'y Born at Stonington, Maine, August 17, 1930. Course, Commercial, Town Meeting Play 131, Thanksgiving Play 1413 Alumni Editor Gatherer 141, Chorus 12, 315 Usher 12, 31, Commendation Scholastic Literary Contest 131, Bookkeeping Award 141 9 Typing Award 141. Gerry is the kind of girl we've liked to have around. Her cheery smile and friendly manner have endeared her to all. A persistent, conscientious worker she has well deserved the awards she has received in her commercial work. Her Commendation in a National essay contest brought honor to the school. We shall not forget her por- trayal of the title role in The Cannibal Queen, nor her fine alto voice in the Chorus. May all good things come your way, Gerry. CLARA ELIZABETH HO'WARD Peanut Born at Stonington, Maine, August 15, 1931. Course, College, President 111, Secretary 131, Student Council 1113 Junior Assistant Gatherer 1313 Co-Editor Gatherer 1413 Chorus 12, 313 Town Meeting Play 12, 31, Thanks- giving Play 141, Librarian 12, 3, 41, Treasurer 11, 2, 3, 41, Basketball 12, 3, 415 Christmas Play 12, 31, Usher 11, 2, 315 Secretary Athletic Association 121, Treasurer Athletic Association 131, Student Representative Ath- letic Association 141, School Treasurer 12, 3, 415 Latin Award 1319 Valedictory. When there's been a job to do we've just automatically elected Clara. For Clara is that dainty soft-spoken miss whose ability to get all A's has convinced us that she's the girl to get things done. Whether we have wanted a school treasurer or someone to plan our yearbook or just help on an algebra problem, Clara has been elected. And who's that at second? Why, Peanut! She is not too gentle to whack out a softball. Glancing at that long list of ac- tivities, we'd say, too, that she hasn't spent all her time studying!

CORNELIA CARRIE BILLINGS Connie Born at Deer Isle, Maine, September 12, 1931. Course, College3 Vice President 1413 Softball 11, 2, 3, 41 3 Basket- ball 12, 3, 431 Town Meeting Play 12, 313 Thanksgiving Play 1413 Activity Editor of Gatherer 1413 Librarian 13, 413 Secretary of Library Club 1413 Usher 11, 2, 313 Gold Basketball 1213 American History Award 1313 Bookkeep- ing Award 1413 Salutatory. Connie has been the steadying influence in the brilliant guard section of our basketball team for the past three years. Have you seen her snatch the re-bounds and clear those balls from the danger zone? Oh, I'd like to read that, says Connie. as she lugs another ponderous tome from the library shelves. Not even College Boards her junior year could faze her. Latin, history, bookkeeping- she has carried them all in the same capable way. We predict success for our Connie. VVILFREIJ RAYMOND CONARY Bm Born at Deer Isle, Maine, December 16, 1931. Course, General College3 Assistant Athletic Editor 1213 Junior Assistant Gatherer 1313 Boys' Sports Editor Gatherer 1413 Basketball 12, 3, 413 Town Meeting Play 12, 313 Property Manager Senior Play 1313 Chorus 12, 313 Orchestra 1213 Thanksgiving Play 1413 Bookkeeping Award 141. Who's that jabbing me in the ribs? I should have known it was Bill! He's the worst tease. But Bill can be helpful when he wants to. You should see him dip out ice cream toss a basketball, or decorate the stage for a play. Rumor has it that Bill is interested in the Air Corps. We'll be cheering for you. CHRISTINE VINA DUNHAM Tinie Born at Stonington, Maine, January 9, 1932. Course, General College3 Vice-President 1313 Secretary 1413 Treasurer 11, 213 Basketball 12, 3, 413 Softball 11, 2, 3, 413 Chorus 12, 313 Orchestra 1213 Town Meeting Play 1313 Thanksgiving Play 13, 413 Christmas Play 1213 Photography Editor of Gatherer 1413 Librarian 1213 Secretary of Library Club 1213 Usher 12, 313 Captain Curtis Publishing Plan 1413 Bookkeeping Award and Typing Award 141. Charming vivacious, gay-hearted-that's Tinie. Her pleasing personality accounts for her popularity with everyone, not excluding the opposite sex. Tinie's favorite sayings, That's some swell! and That's some nice! reflect her happy outlook on life. Lest we give the im- pression she's frivolous. don't forget the state-wide poetry contest in which Tinie placed third. And we hear she is planning a career in nursing. Good luck, pal! -as--fc' inns

Screech!! Sure enough, here comes Chum. No one else could make a car sound like that. Besides having this accomplishment, he is a flashy basketball center, and when it comes to burning over that third strike, or con- necting solidly to clean the bases, he's on top. Did I just hear some hilarity in the corner up back? It must be Chum. We hear you're interested in the army-to say nothing of Sunset. BENJAMIN KENNETH PICKERING Ben Born at .Deer Isle, Maine, December 21, 1931. Course, General5 Baseball 11, 2, 3, 455 Town-Meeting Play 1355 Thanksgiving Play 1455 Orchestra 1255 Chorus 12,355 Basketball 12, 3, 45. Putt, putt, ptt, and Ben still keeps rolling along on his unpredictable Whizzer. Through the ups and more frequent downs Ben has always collected an audience who have never failed to get a laugh. Starring in both basket- bull and baseball, he has maintained a high level of sportsmanship. If his numberless colleagues are any indication of his popularity, Ben should never fail to ' win friends and infiuence people.

Enthusiasms? Too numerous to mention! Frank is our most versatile. A tune on the piano? An original poem? A lively debate? Frank will oblige. Camping, boating, and hunting have claimed their share of his time. Active in every school sport, co-editor of the Gatherer, and prime mover in many of our other enter- prises, he has proved his ability as a leader. Good luck for college days! And may you always have time for the little old dog and the little old gun! 64 UPN
