1925 Pawtucket Hich School 25 RMIMflMItMINMINWR III MIIMIII iniiTimiimilllumi mLltllllliHiililUilnmiiiilllWIlItttllBIHWIWIMIBIIIWMmUIIWIIimiWnMIimMWMIWIIIIIiaMIMBIM WILFRED PORTER HEYWOOD Motto: “Say it with music.” CLEE club (4) Wilfred is one of our most talented classmates. He certainly lives up to his motto, for he is a marvelous pianist, and one of the best musicians P. H. S. has ever produced. Wilfred is also something of an artist, and has a great old time drawing pictures of the rest of us, especially some of our fair damsels. His motto could well have been Better late ihan never.' for he has a great reputation for getting to school just too late. On Freak Day. Wilfred made a perfect movie villain with his marcel wave and monocle, and gave all the girls quite a thrill. Next year will find Wilfred enrolled at the Rhode Island School of Design, and we are sure that in the future he will do something great, and will bring fame and honour to P. H. S. and the class of ’25. VINCENT BROWN HINDLEY fHink”) Motto: “Sink or swim.” Here is one whose voice is heard most often in the mathematics classes. Mathematical subjects, which are such a bugbear for so many, hold no terrors for him. One can see Hink” following the baseball team wherever it goes, as he is an ardent baseball fan. He is also a Zane Grey enthusiast. He expects to attend Rhode Island State next year. LILLIAN HELEN HOGAN (“Bill,” “Lily”) Motto: “Let those love now who never loved before. Let those who always loved, now love the more.” Who was the thirteenth president of the United States?” “Er—ah—” Why all this hesitation, “Bill”? Well, just because Lillian did not know the assignment. But that doesn’t happen very often, we’ll vouch for that. When you hear of a great prima donna bv the name of Lillian Hogan who sings for the Metropolitan Opera Company or some other great opera, you'll know that it’s “our” Bill. Next year she intends to enter Rhode Island College of Education, and we just know that she will make good if she keeps up the good work started in Pawtucket High School. Best of luck, “Lily.” FREDERICK JAMES HOLT ( Sheik”) Motto: “What you do. do well.” Sheik is one of those quiet fellows who mind their own business. He is, or rather, was. bashful, hence the name “Sheik.” My, but when these boys fall they fall hard. There hasn’t been a dance held during the past seven months at which Sheik” has not been present. At school he is all business. He w rites shorthand better than a Chinaman writes Chinese. We all know that “Sheik” will be successful in whatever he pursues in the future. Good luck. “Sheik.

To paraphrase Patrick Henry, “Bunny” would say, “Give me a book, or give me death!” He prefers Samuel Clemens, more popularly known as Mark Twain. If his aim in life is as high as his literary taste, he will surely hit the stars. His favorite study is geometry, which he hopes to pursue more deeplv next year in Boston University. FLORENCE ELIZABETH HAWKINS Motto: “Nothing ventured, nothing gained.” Florence is the quiet little miss who can usually be found in Room 29. surrounded by a group of her friends. Florence is one of those girls who never talks unless she has something worth while to say. W hen she does begin to give advice to her classmates, however, you mav believe that they all listen respectfully and are usually convinced before she has finished talking. When she isn’t working enthusiastically over a Spanish lesson, she is curled up in a large chair w ith a box of candy and one of Charles Dickins’ novels. Next year, Florence expects to attend R. I. College of Education, and so who knows but she may return to old P. H. S. a full-fledged “school marm”? VIRGINIA CHARLOTTE HAYMAN (“Ginger”) Motto: “Perfection is the point at ivhich all should aim.” GLEE CLUB (4) The girl with the big blue eyes, did you say? Yes, that’s she coming down the corridor, telling some funny incident to her neighbor, and throwing her into a gale of laughter. Where have you seen her before? She looks familiar. Well—the truth will out—she hasn’t missed one of the dances given by the Parent-Teacher Association. Perhaps that explains it. At any rate, we wonder which “Ginger” enjoys more, the dancing or the orchestra, for she is a true lover of music. English is her favorite study, but Virginia also likes her other classes—and the people in them. She thinks Booth Tarkington has a wonderful knowledge of youth, and prefers his books to those of any other author. Next year, “Ginger” is going to join the ranks at the Rhode Island College of Education. RAYMOND FREDERICK HENDERSON (“Ray’) Motto: “Don't do it.” CLEE CLUB (4), HONOR SOCIETY, MANAGER HOCKEY (4), MANACER TENNIS (4), SENIOR SUPPER COMMITTEE (4) Another of our popular fellows is Ray.” At all the social functions of the year one is sure to see “Ray” present. Although he is popular “Ray has in no way neglected his studies, and his scholastic ability is shown in the fact that he has been admitted to the Honor Society, an accomplishment which is not attained by the majority of boys. Next year Ray” intends to enter Brown, where success will surely come to him if he keeps up the reputation he established at P. H. S. Your classmates wish you the best of luck, “Ray.”

Remember what a perfect rig she had Freak Day? Doris certainly lives up to her motto, as she is the most cheerful girl in the class, and the head arbitrator of all quarrels, serious or insignificant. She was one of the first to join the Glee Club, and is a loyal supporter of Mr. Ladd. “Jackie” is not sure of her plans for next year, whether she will decide to brighten somebody’s office, or attend a librarians’ school. Whatever she decides to do, we know she’ll do it successfully, and will never forget her class in P. H. S. ROBERT KENNEDY HOOD (“Bob”) Motto: '‘What other fools have done. I can do. “Listen, my children, and you shall hear” not about Paul but about “Bob” himself. You know he went to Barrington High most of his senior year and from what we hear he must have been quite an important person down there. He went out for dramatics and debating and all that sort of thing. “Bob” likes English and history, and next year he’ll probably continue these studies and one or two more perhaps, at Rhode Island State College. He’s an ardent radio fan and may invent a “special model” some day. You never can tell, as Captain Kidd said to the dead pirate. However, 1925 wishes “Bob” the best of luck in everything he undertakes in the future. ELIZABETH TAYLOR HOWES (“Lib,” “Libby”) Motto: “Where there’s a will, there’s a way. HONOR SOCIETY “Libby,” one of our more quiet members, is seen most of the time around room 29. Although she is quiet, she is “right there” when it comes to penetrating into the depths of Ovid, or following the travels of that worthy hero, Aeneas. She claims that French is her favorite study, yet, when she isn’t studying you may surely find her deep into the plot of some exciting novel by Charles Major. Next year “Lib” plans to go to Brown, and we all hope that she will go through there with as many flying colors as she did P. H. S. GEORGE HULME (“Georgie” I Motto: “Don’t say it, do it.” HONOR SOCIETY George is one of the more quiet members of our class, but we understand that he studies a good deal, so that probably accounts for it. George is one of the Pleasant View boys who for four years has made the long trip every morning. George is one of our radio sharks. Yes, he spends his spare time “tuning in” on his radio and we hear that he has wonderful luck. George has always led in his scholastic standing, in spite of his fondness for tennis and dramatics. He has followed the commercial line of study for four years and next year is anticipating either continuing his studies at business school or securing a position in an office. Good luck, George.
