Arthur Clark Shy Buckey from West Fitchhurg Buck is one of our West Fitchburg friends. He likes to walk and his most famous walk is from 7.20 to 8 A.M. every morning. His best sport is caddying. He likes to study, but hates to take home any books. He is noted for his shorthand speed? Commercial Course. Leo Clark Gee, hut I'm a busy man Clarky, owing possibly to his arduous duties as chief bundle clerk at Drury's, does not seem to exhibit very lively interest in our school ac- tivities. Leo started to step out this year. Went to dances 'n everything. He is a persistent musician. He attains great heights in practice and does his corneting in the attic. Technical Course. Alfred Cobb Oh! I'm the Sheik Al is our foremost exponent of classical danc- ing? A great future awaits Al but first he must dye his fair hair, and then he'll be Rudolph's counterfeit. The Freshman class has a strange fascination (most unbecoming to a Senior) for Al. Be careful of these sheiks, J. P. Al's one fault is his weakness on the subject of quarters. Noted for his nonsense and his dancing. College Course. Class Book Committee. Dramatic Club. Class Play. Alice Cole Silence is golden Alice comes from way down there ever morning to enlighten our hearts with the Shirle news. She is studious, but still she doesn't seem to exert herself, and is not known to have spoken unless called upon. Commercial Course. Lillian Connors Small, but Oh, My! Lillian may be small. She certainly makes up for it in other ways. We know that she is full of fun and always ready for a good time. However, part of Lillian's time is spent in studying and the other part is spent in Walter's new Durant. She is always waiting for him at night when she is coming home from work. Commercial Course. Glee Club. Milton Cookson Tramp, tramp, tramp, the boys are marching! Who was it at the prize speaking contest that made such a hit? Milton, of course. Girls, they are too fickle for such a personage. A'lilton is a great student of military affairs, and he spends half of his summers in perspiration at the Citizens' Military Training Camp. Noted for his grin and oratorical ability. Technical Course. Prize speaking. Glee Club.

Florence Carpenter Fun has no limits The above saying certainly holds true for Flossie. She always enjoys a good time. She is an indispensable member of the hockey team and likes basket ball just as well. She left us early in the year. Commercial Course. Mildred Carson Come on over on the stmny side of life, It's only a matter of choice Milly comes all the way from Shirley every- day and we feel sure we should miss her if she didn't. She has a happy smile and a cheery Hello for every one and she is always brim full of fun. The only worry Mildred causes is lest, in chemistry, she will blow up the building. Mildred is a good sport, full of fun, and laughter. General Course. George Cashman Who is greater than I? This is the quotation that applies to George. He is a great lover of machines and that ac- counts for his being a sheik among the girls. He does not seem to care very much for rooms 34 or 26. Well, we will tell you why. He was sent every day in his Junior year from 34 to 26, so he does not care to entertain 26 any more, and he keeps from 34. He is noted for the entertainments, his gang, and his wise cracks. Commercial Course. Mary Charles What is so sacred as knowledge? Judging from Mary's report card she is one of the bright lights of the class. Every other week she keeps store for her dad. We feel sure there is a long and prosperous career ahead of her. Noted for her wavy hair. Part-time Commercial Course. Bernard Chisholm love tranquil solitude And such society As is quiet, wise and good Another star athlete of the common Mexican variety. Bernard spends a lot of his time in an entirely unknown place in West Fitchburg. Chisholm and Flynn are Miss Dunn's home- room pets. He spends many evenings on the corner of Summer and Goodrich Streets and on the Normal School lawn. Seen often with George. His favorite saying is: Aw, who did that? Technical Course. Pauline Christian Friends she has many; Foes, has she any? Polly has upheld the honor of our class in athletics. She won her numerals, but please don't ask her in what. Polly has a fondness for drawing posters, their subject we don't know — but they are considered artistic. She hopes to be the future F. H. S. Physical Torture Teacher. Polly made an excellent cheer leader. General Course. Red and Gray Board. Class Book Committee. Dramatic Club. Girls' Athletics.

Edward Corcoran Of quiet and studions iispir is lie W hen no( in actual recilalion l ddy may usu- ally he found in the corridors, expounding learnedly to a motley crowd on the merits of this, that, and the other thing. Occasionally we see him teasing Miss GifforcL Where does he get that Huffy hair? Eddy's smile is very con- tagious, and it is seldom that we see him with a frown. Noted for his sunny disposition and that hair. Technical Course. Charles Daby Serene I fold my hands and wait Everything comes to him who waits. Charlie is going to get his some day. Why wait at Schulte's corner, Charlie? Charlie is one of the few who can smile all the time. Deals out nickel cigars at Brooks's. Noted for patience. Commercial Course. Ruth Dacey And bid the cheek be ready with the blush A little, lovely girl, most dear and taking. Everyone knows that Ruth is a credit to the class because of her talent and spirit of friendli- ness. If you see Ruth look for Gert. Noted for her dimples. Commercial Course. Chorus. Leon Dal beck Great oaks from little acorns grow Lefty has made a name for himself the short time he has been with us. He proved that Worcester turns out fine athletes. This year he toiled faithfully in all four branches of sport with the result below. Lefty is always practising for track, running home at 9.30 from Goodrich Street. Noted for his constancy to Gert. General Course. Football 4. Basket ball 4. Baseball 3, 4. Track 3, 4. Wayne Dana Who rideth so late through the night wind wild? Wayne Dana, of course, in his imported Uni- versal car. We note that he uses the lap to keep the sun and rain ofT the hood. Use Valspar, Wayne. Miss Fitzgibbons and Wayne are sure hard to stick on Civics, even the Eighteenth Amendment can't fool Wayne. We certainly like parties, don't we? And then we always get the blame. If all rooters v ere like Wayne we shouldn't need a cheer leader. Just ask Fisher. Noted for his wicked side burns, his Civics, and his speed. Technical Course. Class Book Committee. Archie Dauphin Slow but sure Archie is slow but that is because all large bodies move slowly. He is a Radio King accord- ing to him and he comes every day into class trying to convince the teacher that he has studied his lessons. He is noted for being absent on days when he has tests or has to take exer- cises at Crocker Field. Archie cuts a large figure in the Industrial Course. Radio Club. 18
