b ,x,, Axvyi k MILTON GRANT JOHNSON 2511 XVarren Avenue In September, 1931. Milt came to East Providence from lYarren, a quiet lad. full of ambition to make E. P. proud that he was to finish his high school career within its walls. Milt has made us this and more for he has par- ticipated in nearly all the sports which have been in pro- gress since his arrival. His record in football alone is one of which East Providence is proud, but we by no means draw the line here. He has recently broken an established record at the Y. M. C. A. by throwing an eight pound shot twenty-one feet, eleven and one-half inches. Our track team has also profited by his ability. Compare this record with his short stay here and then decide whether any one could have done better. VVe're more than proud of Milt. I' t of luck, Jimmie. JOHN GERALD JOHNSON 38 First Street JAMES KAPLAN Basketball ll-2-3l: Captain 13M Baseball fly. XYhen Johnnie first came to us, we thought he would perhaps some day have a job in a circus as a midget. He and his pal Eddie, are a fine pair of basketball play- ers and aided our team materially. Johnnie is a quiet boy who keeps to his books. He has great possibilities and we expect to hear of him later. 505 North Broadway Bright! Bellicose! Bustling! This is the way to de- scribe Jimmie. His ready humor and bright remarks are always a joy to his classmates. He is the pride of the salesmanship class and is ready to sell anyone a pair of shoes or a new fountain pen. His neat appearance and cheerful disposition will bring him many friends. Best Page twenty-six

Esther is one of our iiost attractive stenographers. She has such al pleasing personality that she is always Surroundetl by a group of her friends. fHowever, she is partial torblondsl But, though she has taken a com- Inercial course, she intends, nevertheless, to be a nurse. We think that she has chosen very wisely, because no one would mind being sick if he knew she was to take care of hini. ELSIE ANNA LEANEA JOHNSON 82 Hoppin Avenue, Riverside Upon entering the Junior High School office during the past term, one invariably saw Elsie behind the counter quietly helping Mrs. Burgess. Elsie is very quiet and ef- ficient, the type of girl who really makes herself useful in whatever she may be doing.

If anyone in our stenog class deserves some day to become Somebody's Stenographern it surely is Evelyn, for she has been our star stenographer. VVhile the rest of the class was gasping for breath after dictation given at a neck-breaking speed, it was always Evelyn who could calmly rise and, with no apparent effort, read back her notes perfectly. But then that is the sort of work we ex- pected from Evelyn. She has had a wonderful record. Page twenty-Hue
