William Matthew Daley A college jdkc to cure the dumps We don't know who has the dumps in our class lull Hill will certainly cure you when you're gloomy. Prob- ably that's the way they're raised in Shirley. Hill has been a great help to the band this year, too. Phyllis Leatha Darch 7 o lliose who know thee not, no words can paint And those who know thee, know all words are faint Most of us cannot understand why Dida gets into so much trouble with her teachers for somehow she seems to be so harmless. Outside of school, much of her time is spent with a young man named John and writing reports for the Girls' Debating Club of which she is the secretary. She also likes to dance and no school afTair would be complete without her presence. Paul Weymouth Dempsey Actions speak louder than words Jack Dempsey may not have the physical proportions of his namesake, but he makes up for this deficiency with grit. Whether in the classroom or in the gymnasium, he always does his best in order to improve himself. He is well-known for his small voice. Dorothy Hall Devlin She dances, too, and studies some. But notwithstanding has much fun Dot is Dade's other half. The two of them find them- selves in trouble once in a while, but manage to get out of it without any serious consequences. Dot directs traffic down on the first floor, and brings Michon trade in the afternoons. Josephine Corinne Dilorenzo Good things come in small packages Josephine is so quiet in school we -are hardly aware of her presence. She and Mary appear inseparable. We hardly think Josephine worries much about her studies. 18

Robert Lewis Curry IT 010 iirar lo nDod is what is fair Alllioiiuli is ynimn 'I'l'l innocent Itc ranks high wiien ('(iniparcd with ninsl ol ns. Hold's lavorite motto is: Variety is the spice ol life, and he carries it out with the result that it's a new one ex'ery week. Sad to say his once heaiililnl tenor xoice is dropping into his boots. John Haydn Curtis A man he seems of cheerful yesterdays, And confident to-morrows John is quite a ladies' man but still favors one in par- ticular— at least he visits Myrtle Avenue frec|uently. Aside from this, he is a very efficient young man who, like Johnson, never uses words of one syllable, when he can substitute five. We predict a bright future for John. Betty Cutler Brevity is the sweetest virtue going Although Betty comes all the way from Shirley, she manages to be present at most of our good times. Out- side of school she is more sociable and jolly than within ciass-room walls. She considers dancing more important than her studies. Harold Thurston Cutler A man witliout knowledge, I have read. May well be compared to one who is dead Harold gets the jump on the rest of us with his continu- ous smile. He's sailing under the guiding hand of Mr. Chalmers and bids fair to hang out his shingle as a chemist. Indeed he was so pressed for time he had to retire from his position as business manager of the Red and Gray. Flora Helen Daby Pleasure before studies We hear little of Klora in school, as her interests appear to be centered oiiisiilc the |)ortals of II. S. When it comes to stiid iiig, I Ioim is some cook. Of late she has seemed to be grc.iiK ,iit,i(iicd to Lib and vice-versa. Flora is just a little inl i i e st cd in t he st rojiger sex. 17

Gerald Edward Dinneen Serene, I fold my IkuiiIs, initl wait Cierald is our model of innocent youth. He is a very quiet member of the class but can talk when once he gets started. He has lovely brown eyes. Oh, if he would only use them to some purpose. William James Dooley Hark diligently when I speak, for not often do I sf. Bill, our football captain, hails from South Fitchburg but he has made up for that by his wonderful work on the athletic field. He is one of our best athletes and has won letters in football, baseball and track. Bill can offer for your amusement an impersonation in any language. Member of the famous vaudeville team of Dooley and LaPointe. Elizabeth Anne Dormin A maiden fair, with red, red hair! With this advantage, no wonder Betsy is one of the bright lights of '26. Her favorite study, as is well known, is Cicero. She has a terrible fondness for the opposite sex, so much so that she has become cross-eyed from trying to look at all the boys at once. We shall remember her for her beautiful teeth and that grin. Mary Lillian Drake Breezy and jolly is she always Always lively and full of fun. It is very amusing to watch Herb talk to her, for he seems to be so earnest. Lillian took Herb's books home for him when he was hurt in an accident. She also deposits regularly in the F. H. S. Bank. It must be getting quite serious. John Joseph Driscoll An inspirer of noise Johnnie never worries much over his studies. He believes in enjoying the teas in 26. We hear that he refused to join the navy because the pants were too narrow. Noted for his attempts to look like a sheik. 19
