CAROLYN FRANCES DEXTER. With words of wond’rous, pond’rous sound. “Carol” stands high in her studies as well in the hearts of her friends. She has entertained the debat- ing club by her vocal solos and has edited the School Notes department of the Red and Gray. She deserves much credit for her assistance in raising money for the Class Book. Noted for her love for the boys. J. G. T., Funaughthea. WILLIAM DOCEKAL. Men of few words are the best men. “Bill” is certainly a man of few words, but is the exception in the latter point although he manages to get by. For bluffing he is in a class by himself. We recommend that he take the next three months and sleep, and if that doesn’t work that he go back to Austria-Hungary. Noted for his brightness. HENRY JAMES DONLON. Men of long words are the best men. He likes to impress Miss Smith with his extensive vocabulary which the latter does not appreciate. We expect to see him principal of a kindergarten some day. We don’t expect “Don” to be lured into an elopement until he has finished his normal school course. Chief occupation, filling space in Room 26. HELEN BERNADINE DOUAI. Men are deceivers ever, To one girl constant never. One of Miss Greathead’s pets. She is a quiet little girl but has a pleasing voice, as we discovered one Monday morning in Assembly Hall. Who Vv ouldn’t like to be one of her pupils when she is a kindergarten teacher? F. F. F. 21

MARY VERACUNDA CONLON. Methinks thou art more honest now than wise. Mary is a good natured, happy-go-lucky girl, but beware the one who agitates her temper. She’s got one all right — eh, Mary? One of our “hello girls.” CATHERINE CORLISS. Sacred and sweet was all I saw in her. A quiet little maid of some intellect. She hails from East Fitchburg and is noted for her studious application. We understand that Catherine has hopes of joining the Red Cross society. ALICE GERTRUDE COUGHLIN. By her in stature the tall Amazon Had stood a pigmy’s height. Alice is fond of Athletes; especially those from West Fitchburg. We missed her for three months this winter. Usher at Whalom Theatre during the summer. Noted for her length. HAROLD STEBBINS DAVIS. Love your neighbor as yourself. “Bull” does not say much at school, but oh my gracious ! you ought to hear him outside of school. He tried football this year, winning his letter. Noted for his attachment for his neighbors. Zeta Phi. 20

LEONARD FRANCIS DOWNES. My deeds and speeches, Sir, are lines drawn from one center; what I promise to do I’ll do. Leonard takes all that is coming his way, but was never known to put himself out to get anything. We expect him to write a book on “Opportunity.” One of Miss Brown’s few ideal pupils. Newman Club. CLARA ELIZABETH DRAHEIM. If I can serve mankind ’tis well. Clara has served on our Red and Gray board, and has displayed much talent as a “Deutsche” poetess. She holds the record in our exceptionally brilliant class for acquiring A’s. She comes from high up on the hills of Fitchburg, which accounts for her high stand- ing as a student. Noted for her brains. CHARLES MORTON DUNBAR. That boy with the grave mathematical look. Charlie has made a success of the industrial course, and has also gained considerable headway in another direction under the guidance of a Junior girl. Charlie attends the Highland Baptist church regularly on Sun- day evenings. Let us on to the attraction, Charlie. Noted for his constancy to Carrie. DOROTHY GERTRUDE EMORY. Carry me to my grave. Dot has won for herself a place of popularity al- though she has shunned the opposite sex. She is also some actress. She possesses a voice of marvellous quality, and we expect to hear her some day as prima donna at Shea’s. We judge that her diet has been chiefly ice water and toothpicks. Noted for her love of pompadours. J. G. T. 22
