12 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 1922 MARJORIE BROWN Motto: “Smile and make friends.” In Room 26, with all the other Browns, sits our tall, dark-eyed, lively “Margie.” She likes all her teachers very much and will hate to leave school. She has been working (? ) in a Providence Restaurant. We are willing to wager that the little Chinese boys step around to the “peppy” music she plays. Her favorite study is French, and her favorite pastime is dancing. Her future is undecided hut she may study music after leaving P. H. S. Well. we wish vou the best of luck in your choi LOUISE FRANCES BRO|(fNlNG (“Louie” Motto: Better late han never.” Seventy-five miles of fun! Louise is one of the greatest lovers of a good time that we can find in the whole senior class, whether on the “g- m” or dance floor, in the lunch or class room. And we re not surprised that “Louie” is popular among both sexes when we notice those mighty attractive eves in addition to her amiable disposition. From her motto, one would say that she was in the habit of keeping one writing. Well, perhaps she is, but everybody admits that she certainly is worth waiting for. A girl like “Louie” can’t help but be a success in life and she deserves all she gets. JAMES EDWARD BURNS (“Jim ” “Jip”) Motto: “Better late than never. BASEBALL (3), FOOTBALL (4) Here he is! “Jip,” the boy of many talents. Fiddler, erstwhile student, baseball player, endman and end. The only occasion on which Jim ever allowed himself to break his motto and be on time, was when an opposing back tried to round his end. On time? You bet. But on any other occasion? Say. he’s given Mr. Crosby writer’s cramp. Although Jip likes being a “Pullman Porter Man he s not m ch of a “Ladies’ Man,” but we feel pretty certain that lie'll find one that will capture him. someday. Good luck, Jip. ALBINA CAMPBELL (“Al”) Motto: “Live. love, learn, and laugh.19 “Miss Campbell, FI! see you at 2:05: These are the familiar words that greet Albina almost every day. for she is the bane of her teachers’ existence. If “Al” is in a class room her presence is usually felt in one way or another. U. S. History is her favorite study because she can have more fun in that period. Her favorite sport is teasing her unsuspecting classmates who are totally deceived by her meek face. In the lunch room she has a trick of making everybody laugh when the have a mouthful of sandwich, the result is a general choking party which greatlv amuses “Al.” “Al’ lives up to her motto with a vengeance, although we are not as certain about the learn part of it. She expects to enter R. I. C. E. in the fall, and we are sure she will laugh her way through R. I. C. E. as she did through P. H. S. i

1922 PAWTUCKET HIGH SCHOOL 11 LAURA CURTIS BRINTON (“Sweetheart,” “Billy” “Teddy”) Motto: “Always be happy, keep to the right and you'll be all right.” GLEANER BOARD (4), CLASS BOOK COMMITTEE (4) Yes, this is Laura, our talented musician, and a member of the “Bobbed Hair Club.” She can be seen always selling tickets for her recitals, both organ and piano. But all her time is not spent that way. Of course not, for her favorite pastime is “dancing and eating Eskimo pies.” No wonder she likes that very much for “Calvin” and “Ralph” keep her pretty well dated up. Well, where do we stand, boys? In studies Laura prefers music. She also enjoys teaching music and spending much time with her pupils. Next year Laura intends to go to N. E. Conservatory of Music. 4 ALFRED DAVIS BROWN (“Al Motto: “Trust to luck.” CLASS SUPPER COMMITTEE (4) “Al’s” home room is 26. From that knowledge you will deduct that “Al is in select company. Although “Al” is of a quiet, thoughtful nature, he is one of the best. He is ever ready to “step out” or “come across” as the call may be. He is a loyal supporter of the teams and has an opinion on all subjects. His favorite study is architectural drawing, and the nifty dog-houses and hen-coops he turns out are works of art. His houses are also rated high. Why, on one house he even put French windows on the bathroom! But, outside of that “Al” can get down to business and turn out worthy work. Next vear he will be found at Northeastern. ANNIS MAY BROWN (“May”) Motto: “Great hopes make great men.” May is one of our young artists. She is particularly talented in art and we never stop wondering al the results she accomplishes. Needless to say Applied Design is her favorite subject. However, her reports show a shower of 5’s in all her studies. May “choo choos” down from Cumberland bright and early Monday mornings. We didn’t know the fame of our school had spread so far. Her bright and sunny nature chases away the blues and draws forth a hearty laugh. May expects to enter the Rhode Island School of Design and become a future Raphael. Go to it, May! EDITH ENID BROWLN (“Jack ) Motto: “If one would gain a high position, he must dare.” Who is that dark-eyed blonde up in the corner of Room 26 that is always talking? Why, that's our Edith, commonly called “Jack.” “Jack” with her chum May for four years have come all the way from Cumberland to attend our far-famed school. Applied Design is “Jack’s” favorite subject and she is very proficient in it. She also excels in the millinery class and is always flaunting a new creation to dazzle our eyes. In September “Jack” expects to leave home and Mother and go all the way to Boston into the Massachusetts General Hospital, to train to be a nurse. Sometime in the near future, we’ll hear her patients saying, “I don’t want to get well, I'm in love with a beautiful nurse.” We’re with you, “Jack,” it’s a wonderful vocation.

HELEN DORIS CAMPBELL Motto: “Never trouble trouble, 'till trouble troubles you!” Who is that tall, graceful blonde in Room 26? Why, that’s “Dot!” her hair is the envy of many girls at P. H. S., because of her “permanent” wave. Doris is very fond of music and her favorite pastime is dancing. Those who dance with her once, don’t forget to ask her for another before the evening is over. Doris’s future is undecided, but she may become a “stenog.” Her favorite study is shorthand and she excels in typewriting also. “Dot” was one of the (lashes who won a Remington Card Case for speed in typewriting. We arc confident she will lie successful in whatever she undertakes. May much luck he yours, “Dot!” ALICE AUGUSTA CARROLL (“Bobby,” “Al”) Motto: “Keep Srpiling.” Alice is the little blonde who occupies the corner back seat beside the windows in Room 26. Look at her picture! Just like her, isn’t it? “Bobby” is always ready to give you that winsome smile. Her motto is very appropriate indeed! Twenty-nine minutes past eight, finds “Bobby” combing her wavy bobbed hair. However, it’s nothing in “Bobby’s life if she is late. Let Mr. Crosby do the worrying. “Al’s’ favorite study is American History (she sticks to facts) and her favorite pastime is dancing. Next year “Al” intends to go to R. I. C. E. and then to Ire a teacher. I et’s go back to grammar school, boys. MILDRED ALICE CLEGG (“Did”) Motto: “Sure arul Steadfast. They say good things come in small packages—that’s “Did.” But she balances her lack of inches by her abundance of pep. She’s a dandy all round sport and just loves to go to football games. She doesn’t mind trying her hand (feet rather I at jazz or varsity once in a while, and she can’t resist canoeing on the Pawtuxet. Who with? Oh well, that’s telling! She is particularly partial to the Scotch and blondes. Her favorite studies are applied design and Spanish. She also does quite a bit of millinery work on the side. Next year she intends to spend her leisure hours at the Rhode Island College of Education learning how to teach the youngsters their A. B. C’s. DOROTHY CHASE COBB (“Dot.” “Dotty,” “Dody”) Motto: “The way to gain a friend is to be one.” If everyone had Dotty’s disposition, this old world would lie a better place, for she is one of the jolliest, peppiest, finest, truest girls that ever brightened our halls. Last year there was deep gloom when she retired from the active life of P. H. S., but now we rejoice that she , is back to graduate with the glorious class of 1922. She’s a dandy sport and gives as a list of favorite amusements: basketball, football, tennis, skating, skiing, fancy diving, and driving a truck. Whew! “Dody would rather go to ride with “Napoleon” than studv anv day, I and who can blame her? She gets along pretty well in high school -U„ :» u..if Holvoke anvway.
