Refreshment Committee. Now boys if you want a charming young hostess you may apply at 611 Broadway. If you don’t believe she is charming refer to Eugene Hussey, he knows. Whalen, Herbert Franklin. This very “noisy” boy was born in Everett, September 27, 1897, and has lived in this famous football town all his life. “Archimedes” was on the honor list of our class, of which we were very proud. He was a member of the Philomaths. Anyone wishing any sort of a problem solved call at 85 Belmont Street. Yunitz, John, was born February 11, 1897. John is some student. Every recess you are certain to find him deep in study, that is, if the girls will let him alone, for John is in strong with the ladies. The 1916 class will miss his sunny smile next year, but we hope that his future “classmates” will find him as happy as we have found him. He was a member of the Boys’ Glee Club. Residence, 84 Third Street. Ryan, Edwina. This fair Miss first opened her eyes to the world on January 3, 1899, in Malden. She attended the Emerson Grammar School in Malden, and her next turn was served at Everett High. Edwina is one of the happy songsters in the Girls’ Glee Club, and is also a member of the English Club. She served on the Junior Prom, Senior dance, and picture committees, and is the Girls’ Glee Club editor for the Echo , and also Biog¬ rapher for Room 27. She now resides at 140 Hancock Street. Hussey, Eugene Rexford. This bashful barefoot boy was bom August 8, 1899. He attended the Horace Mann and the E. E. Hale Schools. “Gene” is another one to remember that “Blushing is the color of virtue.” He answers the bell at 35 Henry Street. Listernick, Sidney Solomon, also known as “Lidney Sisternick,” was born in Rouvno Vulynia, Russia, February 15, 1896. “Sid” came over to this country in 1910 and completed the grammar school course in two and one-half years. He is completing his high school course in three and one-half years. He was business manager of the Malden High School Optimist. He came to Everett and was advertising manager of the Clarion and likewise of the Echo. He is a member of the Lyceum and a Philomath. He hangs his hat at 118 Ferry Street, and also sells them. “Sid” is going to take the Tufts engineering course. Bradley, Frank L. South Boston will ever be famous for having pro¬ duced this distinguished gentleman on July 21, 1897. Our class president moved to Everett in 1901, and after having attended the Franklin and Warren Schools, he wended his weary way to Everett High. “Brad” can play ping pong, but excels in parlor rugby. He is a member of “The Big 4,” noted for their extensive traveling—especially to Malden and Lynn (we wonder why). He intends to be a civil engineer because he has been offered a life term at Danvers for having attempted to raise a flea with a derrick. “Brad” is a champion debater. Was captain of the affirmative team of 1916, has fought on the gridiron for two years, is a member of the B. G. C. and the Philomaths. He proved himself an excellent “herrin” in the Senior Class Play. He gave 31

Secretarial Course at Miss Pierce’s School on Boylston Street. She resides at 543 Broadway. Post, Victoria Bernice. Was born July 13, 1896, in Delevan, New York. We certainly have one traveler in our class anyway. Victoria has attended the Horace Mann and Mt. Washington Schools in Everett, the Jacob T. Glines School in Somerville, Parker Street Grammar School, New Bedford, Somer¬ ville English High, Pawtucket High School, R.J., Stoneham High School, and she finally ended here in the E. H. S. Victoria served on several graduation committees and was a class poetess. She now resides at 55 High Street, Everett, but we do not know how long before she will begin traveling again. Roberts, Wallace Melvin. This ladies’ man was born in Everett, May 19, 1896. Wallace attended the Glendale, Edward Everett Hale, Horace Mann and Everett High Schools. He was a member of the Boys’ Glee Club, the Senior Dance Committee, and was “Tom” McShane in the Class Play. When Wallace cannot be found at 24 Parker Street, Everett, he may be found on Summer Street, Malden. Rounds, Kathleen Arnold. Was born in Everett July 24, 1899. She attended the Devens, Horace Mann, Lincoln, and Everett High Schools. She was a member of the Refreshment Committee, English Club, and an understudy for the Class Play. Kathleen may be had at any time at 67 Winslow Street. Ryan, Esther Elizabeth. This little mischief maker first started things April 18, 1898, in Everett, and she has been starting things ever since. She attended the Devens, Lincoln, and High Schools. Esther was on the Senior Dance and Class Day Committees and a member of the English Club. On being asked what she was going to do next year Esther replied, “Go House¬ keeping.” Anyone wishing a good little house-keeper apply at 7 Green Street. Schofield, Frank Arthur. Frank was born in East Boston, October 25, 1897. He attended the Hancock, Hale, and High Schools. He was assistant advertising manager for the Echo. We didn’t know that “Noah” lacked nerve until he showed it in the Class Play. As long as his “father” consented having him enter Harvard we hope to see him gliding between Harvard and 14 Cedar Street, Everett. Smith, Lena Priscilla. A very dainty little lady who is saving her voice for use after graduation, at least that is what we think, as she favors us with mere whispers during recitation time. It seems that Lena always treads the straight and narrow way, for nothing ever disturbs her tranquility. She lives at 169 Grover Avenue, Winthrop. Symmes, Ruth Harriet. Ruth’s first sight of the world was December 21, 1897, in Everett. She is quiet and unassuming, yet full of fun when you know her. She was a member of the English Club. Residence, 40 Gledhill Avenue. Wilkins, Esther Gertrude. One of the chief mischief makers of Room 27, was born in Salem, Mass., November 20, 1898. She was a member of the 30

the closing address at the graduation exercises. The new Tech buildings are being rapidly completed in expectation of his coming. “Genteel in personage, conduct and equipage, Noble by heritage, generous, and free.” Creamer, Loring C. First gave proof of his arrival in 1898. Loring is another of the “Big 4” and although rather bashful in Everett, is said to be the bear of the parties at Malden, being no slouch and far from shy when it comes to parlor rugby and post-office. He graduated from the Webster School, and was wafted into High soon after, becoming one of the shining lights that will be blown out this June. Loring was captain of the negative debating team this year and captured all the honors due him. He also brought honor to Everett High by securing the gold medal for the theme on “The American Merchant Marine.” He was a famous actor of the Class Play and gave the opening address on graduation night. He intends to enter Harvard after a term at Mt. Herman in Northfield. Residence, Walnut Street. “Had I a heart for falsehood framed, I ne’er could injure you.” Collings, William C. This little chap first made his melodious appear¬ ance in Revere on October 19, 1896. He attended the McKinley school of that city, and then he decided to make Everett a visit. So to Everett he came and has made himself forever renowned as the leader of our school orchestra. Bill took two years of the Technical course and then came into the Academic (but we couldn’t help it). He is undecided wh at to do in future years, but hopes to be of service to his mother. He will be glad to receive callers any time, but adds that he will be at home surely at meal time-45 Lexington Street. „ As sure a gun , Shea, Edward Augustus. Born in Everett, September 20, 1986. Grad¬ uated from the E. E. Hale Grammar school and attended Boston College High for a while, but couldn’t resist the temptation of coming back to his own home city “Jail.” Eddie has been on the baseball and football teams and says he’s not dead yet. Weeks, Doris Luelia. Born September 25, 1898, Everett. Graduated from the Horace Mann School. Won two gold medals in Prize Speaking Contests, and was in the Class Play.

She attended the Devens, Centre and High Schools. Marion’s greatest difficulty was attending the flowers in Room 32. She will continue study at Mr. George’s School of Design, taking a Normal Course. Residence, Washington Street. Foley, John Francis. Born in Dorchester on January 19, 1897. Some¬ how or other he arrived in Everett and attended the Glendale and Hale Schools. Francis’ chief trouble is translation (in the Auditorium). He in¬ tends to enter Lowell Textile in the fall. 32
