take S ANNABELLE COCKBURN A combination of sophistica- tion, charm and sincerity marks Nan as an individualist. She has that certain air that makes all notice, and that lovely blonde hair just tops things otf. Taking an active part in various school activities, Nan was par- ticularly recognized ior her excel- lent character roles in the Mas- quers' plays. WILLIAM CONWAY Boot Conway was that long, lean and lanky boy who always wore those flashy sport coats. His deep. booming voice distinguished him. and we predict a brilliant future as an announcer for him. William spent most of his leisure time wearing out long, white aprons for the First National. IOHN COLAVECCHIO Did we hear someone say they wanted a secretary? Well. Iohn is the person. He is the only man in the senior shorthand and office practice classes-but he isn't spoiled. The S. A. A. fund was added and readded by Iohn. but with Iohn doing the adding. the sums almost invariable came out right. IOHN COLLINS Oh he's a jolly good fellow. Who is? Iohn Never-a-dull-mo- ment Collins. Even if Iohn's jokes originated in the state of Iowa tin case you don't know they raise corn out there-real coml. the Collins' style of presentation always produced a laugh. DORIS COOK Strike! Doris does it again. Her favorite pastime is bowling. We'll bet she can give Pop Anderson some pretty stitf competition. Doris does roll a mean ball. Don't let that quiet smile and shy manner mislead you. Beneath it all. hu- mor and wit are ready to spring at you. CATHERINE CURRAN Catherine is one of our good students. Her sweet smile, shiny hair and pleasant appearance is always like sunshine on a rainy day. Catherine has a nice per- sonality and is well liked by everyone. Many a good time was spent in Catherine's company. We wish her the best of luck. GLADYS CURTIN Here is a girl who really has red hair, plus the freckles that are supposed to accompany it. We don't know about the temper. Gladys is a real friend. She is always dependable. Her merry smile, sparkling eyes and humor- ous remarks are enough to glad- den any heart. That's Gladys. CAROLINE DAGON Caroline was definitely a very jolly classmate. She explained to many of us that her curls were done the homemade way. We hope that she will give lessons to those interested. We think of Caroline as the girl who liked good times. but she could buckle down to work, too. HAZEL COOPER One of our shy girls is Hazel. Although she said little in class, her test papers were usually marked A . Hazel is in love- with her white pooch which she is often seen walking with. We are sure she will become a very successful nurse. DONALD DEITCH Looking lor the life of the party?-QHere he isll Don was most certainly the acme of devil- try, lun. and mischief. We have yet to see him without a bright twinkle in his eyes and a humor- ous quirk to his mouth, but we sincerely hope he will always re- main-just Don.

IRENE CARROLL Irene is one of our youngest classmates and we are proud she is one of us. Although she is a very quiet person, we know she will succeed in her chosen field of nursing. Irene is small, but size doesn't mean a thing, es- pecially in her case .is V, . ils .W tssoi FRANCIS CASERIO Don't say you haven't seen Francis, for he's one of the better known members of the class. But if you insist, here's a glimpse of him. He's a member of the fam- ous Foxy Rhythmers. Much of his time and thought is taken up by his interest in basketball and track. AUGUST CASSINELLI If you're thinking that you've never seen August, we think we can offer a solution. He is always one to go directly to his destina- tion without interruption. We can see the glint now in his eye, as he punches a time clock. August will be a serious worker. ALFRED CASTELLANI It was said that Alio's swing could scare a ball into the out- field. He was respectfully called the Angel by those who felt his vice-like grip. But with all his strength, he never used it ag- gressively, and honestly. he was a gentleman at all times. 32 VW? IOSEPHINE CECERE Io was a small, but lively girl with a smile from ear to ear. She could frequently be found either mashing potatoes in homemaking or puzzling over her chemistry. In- cidentally, Io likes bananas. Her favorite rendezvous is the Burn- side library or the First National. Why? Well, that's another story. heard. HARRY CATLETT The most manly of men, and a great sport, that's Harry. His speech shows knowledge, his at- titude experience, and you're wrong if you think for one min- ute that he is the shy type. He surely loves sports! He takes part in every activity, even if it is from the side lines! EDMUND COBURN Bang! There's that Coburn boy again. Ed is a crack shot with a rifle and is said to do a great deal of hunting. What he lacked in stature and speech he made up in outside activity iso we are toldl. Well. Ed, we're just hop- ing you aim at the right people. MARY CERSOSIMO Often mistaken for a freshman because of her small stature Mary is one of our smallest sen iors. Her dimples and perfectly formed lovely black curls are the envy of many of the girls Despite her size Mary preferred being one who was seen but not IACQUELINE CHANDLER Would you like to know some thing about the history of the United States? Well just ask Iackie. A pleasing personality besides plenty of intelligence will no doubt bring her as many friends in the future as in the past Whenever you see Iackie you see Betty Grant too THELMA CHAPMAN Did I hear a whistle? Why it must be Thelma She certainly is a sight for sore eyes with her lovely dark eyes and dark hair We have a feeling that a very gay disposition is hid under her very innocent looking face What about it, Thelma? Fess up

WALTER DERECK The old proverb, Still water runs deep. certainly applies to Walt. He is a very good listener and always preferred listening to talking, unless he had something worth while to say. Walt's favor- ite past time is duck hunting in the deep meadows, but we won- der just how much roast duck Walt has had. DONALD DOTY There just aren't enough words to do Don justice. Typical Ameri- can student-handsome. ambiti- ous, and fun-loving, that's Don. Trite as it may be, Don's blue eyes simply sparkled with devil- try. If he were a Mormon, he surely wouldn't lack a harem. The lucky girls! Seriously, his long strides will carry him far. RENA DICKEHSON V' Good company is welcome everywhere! Renie is liked by everyone and we always liked to see her joining one of the chatty groups in the corridor before 8:30. Her long bob, rosy cheeks, and chubby face gave her that longed for school-girl look . What made the sophomore boys' hearts jump. Renie? Bonsai' DONNELLI tj Although Bob's nicknames changed as frequently as the weather. we'll all remember him as R. D., Comrade X, and the Great Lover. We knew better than to argue with him about football or basketball, for Bob knew his onions when it came to these subjects. ARLENE DONOFRIO Dates, dates and more dates are the words that run constantly through Arlene's mind, and we don't mean the kind that grow in the desert. When we hear that familiar phrase, What has she got that we haven't got? , and the answer is still dates. Who is the latest heart-throb, Arlene? :H gg : 's. fi.'-1: . .., .. gs... x ttitt l s 1 q vs. 'tt -4- ts A sr J K Hs QM tggifll X. ,ts DOROTHY DOUGHTY Dorothy is another blonde mem- ber of the famous trio-Dorothy, Evelyn, and Dolores. She is a gay, happy-go-lucky girl with blue eyes that reflect the mischief in her soul. Oh, but her mischief is quite harmless, we assure you. Seriously though, Dot is a very welcome member of our class. FRANCIS DOUGHTY Is that a machine gun firing, or are we hearing things again? No. it can't be a machine gun but look! It's Doughty, the master of the typewriter, and we don't mean a fireann. Oh say, have you heard him play the organ? That is, the mouth organ. ANDREW DOWDEN And there was with us a typist, Dowden by name, as Chaucer might have put it. Andie and a basketball spell a queer combin- ation. This lad could shoot the weirdest shots! We hear you'll never be a soldier, Andy. The story tells strange tales of your marching in gym. J, GERALDINE DONOVAN Gerry was a girl of few words. She has a glimmer in her eyes, a shy smile, but very seldom does she speak. We never hear Gerry say a word of criticism about anyone or utter a complaint about anything. Gerry deserves the best in life because she is one of the best. MARGARET DROWN Happy am I, from care I am free . Peg's the girl with flashing eyes and ability to roll them! She never lets studies interfere with her social life. Because of her liveliness and friendliness, she was well liked by all. Peg is al- was busy evenings with . . . you know who.
