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

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.
