DRAMATICS (4) “Ella” is the most talkative girl in our class. If everyone said as much as she in a day’s time, none would say anything. The age-old proverb savs, “Silence is golden.” Our own little “Ella” is virtuous, we believe. She remains true to her motto, for she always has a bright smile on her face which lights up the whole room. When she tells us that her ideal pastime is dancing we wonder if she is really shy at all. She may not be after school hours. “Ella’s” favorite subject is shorthand, and we understand that she is quite expert in that line. Her favorite author is Carolyn Wells, so she informs us. “Ella” plans to attend some business college next year. The class of ’25 wishes you success! CATHERINE ANJEANETTE VERONICA GAYNOR (“Kitty”) Motto: “Grin and bear it.” “Kitty” is that auburn-haired girl who sits in room 29. Perhaps most of us remember her by her exquisite show of millinery on our illustrious Freak Day. Since her arrival here, she has followed the commercial line of study, and we have heard that she quite excels in stenography, probably because of her liking for this subject. She spends lots of her time dancing, and this is, she claims, her favorite pastime. Next year we shall probably find her at Bryant and Stratton’s, if her plans turn out well. Good luck to you, “Kitty”! DOROTHY IRENE GEL I NAS (“Dot”) Motto: “Put auay a little ray of sunshine for a rainy day.” “Dot” has certainly lived up to her motto through her four years in high school. On any rainy day one may be sure to see her doing her share to distribute her “gold dust” and “liven things up a bit.” Next to doing this, “Dot” loves to read Zane Gray’s novels and to draw. We don’t know which she likes better, but each holds a strong fascination for her. “Dot” also excells in dancing, or, in fact, anything that spells fun. Next year, she intends to further her learning in the Rhode Island School of Design. Wherever you are or whatever you are doing, “Dot,” don’t forget good old P. H. S. and the class of ’25. LAURENCE EDWIN GE.MEINHARDT (“Larry,” “Bleton”) Motto: “On with the Ford!” ASSISTANT MANAGER BASEBALL (3), MANACER BASEBALL (4), MANACER SOCCER (4), GLEE CLUB (4), CLEANER (4), RECORDANDA (4) Well! If it isn’t “Larry!” Who’d have thunk it? And without the “flivver,” too! He confided to us the other day that he wanted to have his picture taken with his old friend the Ford, but the Yandall Studio could not accommodate him. Too bad, “Larry.” We’ll admit you don t look natural without it. “Larry” boasts that a Ford has no limitations. We almost agree with you, “Larry”—how many did you take home the other day, eight, or was it ten? You'll never guess what he claims is his favorite study—Latin! Can you imagine that? “Larry” goes to Brown next year, but we feel sure that “when he gets to the college gates” (to quote?), he will not forget the class of ’25.

Perhaps you've noticed the girl with the flaxen curls and that winning smile. Well, that’s our Carolyn. Her smile is simply irresistible and has broken many a heart, who knows? Carolyn came to us four years ago from Grove Street, and ever since has been boosting old P. H. S. She says her best-liked subject is shorthand, but we notice that her other studies are never neglected. Aside from this she’s brilliant in history, for any time Miss Osborn wants the “Presidents with dates” or the “Munroe Doctrine,” “Al” is right there with the answer. When she and her churn “Tillie” get together there’s some fun in store for all. Carolyn’s plans for next year are uncertain, but whatever she undertakes we know she'll be a great credit to the class of ’25. WILLIAM FRANCIS FOLEY (“Sammy,” “Firpo”) BUSINESS MANAGER “SEVEN CHANCES” (4), ASSISTANT BUSINESS MANAGER “THE CHAMPION” (4), CHEMISTRY TEAM (4) “How about going to a dance tonight? Yes, it s “Sammy,” the jazz boy. You see that “Sammy” could live on dancing. Just feed him a snappy fox-trot and his appetite is appeased. Our “Willie ’ is also a chemist. That bov knows more chemistry than Webster knew words. No wonder we have good write-ups for our plays, “Firpo ’ represents the Times. Zane Grey is “Willie’s” favorite author. By the looks of things in room 17 it is evident that the boy burns the midnight oil reading wild-west stories, and next morning enacts the scenes with the aid of spit-balls. He is, without doubt, the champion of the elastic band. In the year to come we shall undoubtedly see W illie in some flourishing business. OLIVE ISABELLA EREDENBURGH (“Bones,” “Grizzly Bear”) Motto: Keep your face toward the sunshine and the shadows will fall behind you.” Here is one who smiles through adversity. Give her a set of drawing tools and some paints and she will make her own sunshine. She tells us she is going to the Rhode Island College of Education next year. “Bones” informs us that history is her favorite study. We wonder whether the fact that historv is filled with heroes and romantic tales has any influence over her choice. W e wish you luck in your future life, Olive. ANNINA MARIE FROVA (“Van”) Motto: “Facta, non Verba.” VICE-PRESIDENT LYCEUM (4), DRAMATICS (4) Here’s “Van”—that charming little senorita of Room 29. She is an ardent supporter of everything pertaining to P. H. S., and can be seen at the games and track and swimming meets. Sire is right at home on the stage, and will not be forgotten soon because of her roles in “The Champion” and “Seven Chances.” She enjoys nothing so much as driving her own car and she makes a very capable “chauffeuress.” “Van” is very interested in art, at least, so We infer, for she buys posters by the dozen. But, then, there may be method in her madness— who knows? Next year, “Van” will enter Cedar Crest College, Pennsylvania. The best of luck, “Van!

Pawtucket Hich Schooi 1925 25 unim ■MIMIIMUIIM1IKI EUNICE FRANCES GILDEA (“Eunie”) Motto: “Love them all but marry none. From her motto, one might suspect that Eunice is a genuine heart-breaker. Such, however, is not the case, as a certain senior from Room 29 will confess. Eunice is always present at our track meets and foot-hall games, cheering herself hoarse for dear old P. H. S. At our dances she is always l eseiged by scores of suitors, so that she says she will have to divide the dances in order to accommodate everybody. Eunice takes to millinery very eagerly, and, judging by her hats, she is some milliner. Next year, Eunice may enter the Rhode Island College of Education to prepare to teach our future young hopefuls. HAROLD JOSEPH GILDEA (“Gil,” “Storky,” “Gilda”) . Motto: ‘7f is always a waste of time to ask a man to listen to reason at the moment when he ought to Jo it” CI.ASS TREASURER (3) (4), LEAGUE DELEGATE (2). VICE-PRESIDENT A. A. (3), PRESIDENT (4), FOOTBALL (2) (3) (4), BASKETBALL (3) (4), CAPTAIN B. B. (3| (4), TRACK (2) (3) (4), BASEBALL (3) (4), HOCKEY (4), GLEE CLUB (4), VICTORY BALL COMMITTEE (3), REVISORY COMMITTEE OF A. A. (4) Behold the noble visage of one of the most popular boys in our class! Gaze on his record and lie convinced! There has never been a committee without “Gil’s” inspiring and worthwhile influence. This little fellow (is he six feet two inches or six feet three inches?) has l een clearing the bar, shooting baskets, playing football, baseball and hockey for four successful years, and no prom or reception has been complete without his gallant presence. For two years he has been our trusty treasurer, and, in short, has l een in everything which could be crowded into four years. Harold has never claimed to lx much of a lady’s man, but he manages to hold his own with a certain dark-haired miss. Next year. “Gil hopes to enter Canisius College, Buffalo, but we know that wherever he goes he'll lx a prominent figure (literally and figuratively). LEO GOLDMAN HONOR SOCIETY Motto: II ny a pas Je rose sans cpeins” 1 Freely translated, this motto means, “Nothing is acquired without -u,;% r effort. Apparently this motto has inspired Leo throughout his career A in P. II. S.. because we find him emerging at the end. one of the envied ones of the Rhode Island Honor Society. His favorite study is French. P Often we have seen him the center of a group desirous of a little aid in that subject, in which he shone. His literary taste is a little out of the ordinal v. a- In prefers tin of that well known delineator of jlPW ( .ape Cod ts pe . Joseph C. Lincoln. Leo plan- next year to attend Rhode Island State where we expect he will gain more scholastic honors.
