1925 Pawtucket High School 17 JAMES BUCHANAN DOW (“Jimmy” “Scotty,” “Buck”) Motto: “If you cant win. make the fellow ahead break the record.” GLEE CLUB (4), DRAMATICS (3) (4), ORCHESTRA (3) (4) “Roamin’ in the Gloamin’ with a lassie by nia side.” Who’s that, Harry Lauder? No! That’s “Scotty” Dow! and isn’t he right there when it comes to mimicking Sir Harry himself? “Jimmy” has taken parts in many plays and proved himself quite an actor. No douht when you have seen him he has been causing someone to laugh with a witty expression or a joke. He is also a member of our celebrated orchestra, and can certainly play a fiddle. He is undecided as to his future plans, but wants to go either to some technical school or Rhode Island School of Design. The wishes of all your classmates go with you, “Jim,” for success in the future. LILLIAN MARGARET DOW Motto: “What's the use of worrying?” CLEE CLUB (4), HONOR SOCIETY Behold our Lillian with her hair bobbed again! While we liked it before we’ll have to admit we like it better bobbed. Lillian seems quiet to those who do not know her, but her intimate friends say that she is most assuredly not. Lillian started her freshman year with a brilliant record and has kept it throughout her high school career. As a result, she is a member of the Rhode Island Honor Society. Lillian declares that her favorite study is French, and we don’t wonder when we see her marks. Next year she intends to go to some prep school, probably Dean, before entering college. Wherever she goes the best w ishes of the class of ’25 go with her. DOROTHY KOERNER DRAPER (“Dot”) Motto: “So big.” DRAMATICS (4) A petite figure with golden curls and the gayest of grey-blue eyes, surrounded by a host of admires of the other sex—who is it? Who could it be but “Dot”? “Dot” is one of the most popular girls in the class of ’25. She enjoys herself thoroughly in all of her classes, although we have found out that she enjoys herself most in French, nest ce pas. Dot?” She doesn't stop at enjoying herself, though. All of those who sawr Daddy-Long-Legs know that “Dot” can surely give others a good time by her acting in Dramatic Society productions. Next year she expects to attend Lasell Academy, and later to continue her studies at Johns Hopkins. DELPHIS JOSEPH DUPUIS (“Duke,” Del”) Motto: “Think for yourself—it won’t hurt.” “Duke” is another one of our practical students. No frivolities during w'orking hours for him. If “Del” is working on an architectural drawing or a trig problem he wants to work and not be distracted. But then there is the other side. If “Del” is playing, he plays hard and puts his whole heart into whatever he’s doing. “Del is one to follow a motto like the one he has chosen. He is one of the foremost architectural drawing pupils, and will eventually take up this line of work. He is planning to enter the University of Pennsylvania in the fall.

Ha!” proves a welcome diversion in the math class. We mean the only welcome diversion to the pupils. The teacher has his own opinion. “Steve” wonders why they don't ask what your most hated subject is. We don’t have to ask, for we all know what it is, and sympathize with him. Next year “Steve” expects to go to M. I. T., where his brilliance in math will be sure to make him a success. MARION GRETCHEN DODGE (“Skip,” “Skipper”) Motto: “There's many a slip twixt the cup and the lip. CHEER LEADER (2l (3), MANAGER OF GIRLS BASKETBALL TEAM (4) Hah! Hah! Hah! Whose laugh could that he but our own “Skipper’s”? “Skip is that cheerful and entertaining miss who is always surrounded by a group of admiring friends. No one can dispute the fact that she holds the record for attendance at all the games, be they football, basketball or baseball. “Skip proved a very energetic cheer leader, as well as a capable manager of our girls' basketball team. “Skip” was voted the best girl “mixer” in school, and it is not surprising, for she has that rare gift of making friends everywhere. Next year “Skipper” is to begin training at the Rhode Island Hospital, and we feel sure that her sunny disposition and efficient manner will do much toward making her a capable nurse. THEODORE G. DOMINA (“Teddy,” “Ted”) Motto: “Don't put off till tomorrow what you can do today. DRAMATICS (4), STACE COMMITTEE “SEVEN CHANCES” (4) Here he is, the champion dancer of the Class of ’25. “Teddy’s” one and only love is dancing. When he’s not tripping the light fantastic at the “Arc,” he is enjoying himself at the school socials. “Ted” also is quite an actor, taking part in the cast of “The Champion.” “Teddy” always endeavors to live up to his motto, and a harder working fellow cannot be found in the school. He is a baseball player of no mean ability but, owing to work, he was not able to go out for the team. ‘Ted’s” favorite study is chemistry, and he is one of Mr. Wolfe’s prize pupils. His favorite author is Oppenheim. and he spends much of his time reading his works. “Ted” is undecided what he will do in the future, but next year. P. H. S. will find him back taking a post graduate course. MARGARET COURTNEY DOTT (“Peggy”) Motto: Real life is love, laughter and work. Room 27 got the surprise of its life last March when “Peggy” tripped in with her tresses bobbed. “Peggy” comes to us from Potter School and. although quiet, she always has her share of the good times with her friend Evelyn. “Peggy” confesses that she loves dancing, and we quite agree with her. Every Friday evening she can be found tripping the light fantastic with some of her admirers at the school. “Peggv” is one of our commercial girls and she says that stenography is her favorite study. “Peggy” plans to finish her commercial course at Bryant Stratton next year and thence go out into the business world.

Yes. of course you know it but we have to start some how! “Vic’s” taking a general course and her favorite study is Applied Design. You see, she leans toward art. I don’t mean she doesn't stand up straight, hut she has artistic abilities. That’s why she’s going to the Rhode Island School of Design next year. Although she’s a loyal member of the Athletic Association she misses some of the games because she is a movie fan. Startling, if true, and she says it’s true! and who can blame her? Of course it’s interesting to see Rudolph Valentino in a bull fight and Harold Gildae in a basketball game, but they’re different types, rather. “Vic” has lived up to her motto so well that when she leaves P. H. S. she’ll have a regular cheering section to wish her success and happiness. And we'll be in it, too! CLIFFORD EDWARDS (“Cliff ) Motto: “ you re feeling kinda blue, just whistle.” hockey (1) Voila! the one and only golfer of the Class of 25. When “Cliff ’ says his favorite sport is golf, he says beaucoup. As soon as the 3:05 bell rings, “Cliff is seen dashing through the door on his way to the links. He also confesses that he likes hunting and fishing, but due to his mania for golf, he has only a passing acquaintance with these other pastimes. On Sunday evenings “Cliff finds time to visit a certain Senior who lives near the school, and from all appearances it seems pretty serious. “Cliff’s” favorite study is English, and Miss Rowe will bear out the fact that he is a “shark in it. Oh! yes, “Cliff also likes dancing and he is always a familiar figure at the school socials. “Cliff's” future is in the golfing world, and in a few years we hope to see him one of the leading golfers of the country. FREEDA EISENBERC (“Farina,” “Fritzie”) Motto: “Let us. then. be up and doing” CLEANER (4), RECORDANDA (4), HONOR SOCIETY Freeda is another one of our shining stars. It must not be inferred from this, however, that she is a so-called “grind.” She is a loyal supporter of all the school activities, and can always be seen at a football or basketball game making herself hoarse, shouting for her team. Freeda is also one of the hardest working members of our Gleaner Board, and has contributed greatly to that most popular and amusing department known as “The Locals.” Freeda and Evelyn are great friends and can almost always be seen together. Freeda is undecided as to her future plans, but there is no doubt in our minds but that she will come out on top in whatever she undertakes. MARGARET CATHERINE ERSKINE (“Peggy,” “Muzzie”) Motto: “Laugh if of}.” We don't have to wonder that “Peggy” is popular. Anyone with her sunny disposition is bound to be the center of attraction wherever she goes. We all love to be happy, and “Peg” surely does her best to make us so. That’s what makes her motto so appropriate. “Peggy” intends to enter Normal School next year, and in a few years we may see her trying to manage a group of unruly youngsters. We can just imagine the pupils bringing apples and flowers to her every morning. We’d better be careful or some of our present seniors may be trying to go through school again—the attraction certainly will be great enough!
