Velma Irene Dudley Jay rises in me like a summer's morn liiia is (lisl inguishcd by her curly hair. We expt-cl lo hear great things al)oiit her in the musical world. If you see Velnia, look for Olive and vice versa. We hear V'cliiia is a great friend of Mr. Ross. .She S|)ends a great pari of her time (lri iiig that great i)ig car around this metropolis, I)on'( he so stingy with it. Velnial Myra May Eastman (' ' eyes arc stars of twilight fair Like twilight, too, her dusky hair Although Myra is included in the quiet group of our class, we are not fooled, for we know of outside interests centering about a young man. When not at school she attracts customers to a small store in West Fitchburg. Myra believes in displaying to the full woman's crowning glory. Elizabeth Wilson Eddy Her gravest mood could scarce displace The sunshine of her lovely face Dade with her school-girl complexion has done her bit to beautify our class. The class Mutt in size although not in gray matter, she manages to get by. Her ambition after graduation is to rival Elsie de Wolfe as an interior decorator. Ilmari Bernard Erkkila No profit without work Ilmari is a modest and unassuming boy, excellent in all his studies, especially history and mathematics. He is as good a baker's assistant as a grocery clerk. He has been assistant-business manager of the Class Book. We think a person of his ability ought to join a dancing class and appear more often in society. Anastos Fanos Yes, we have no ba ianas F'anos the financier of the Water Street section was pro- moted this year from bench warmer to regular pigskin catcher. He is known as the big hearted boy with plenty of nickels. Besides a regular position- on the basket ball team he holds a regular position on the Y. M. C. A. steps. M. C. S. must have a soft spot in her heart for him, even if he does think that Balboa discovered the Nashua River. 20

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

John Benjamin Fellows, Jr. His time is forever, everywhere his place An ardent basket ball player who is willing to play on any team. John intends to leave the print of his O'Sullivan heels on the front steps of the school. If he is a chip of the old block, he should make a good mayor. Lawrence William Fish Books or work or healthful play Lawrence is the big boy of the class. He has time for his studies as well as milking the cows. He is the com- poser of many songs, the best known being: I Wonder What's Become of Sally? Lucille Elizabeth Fish Stately, tall, and almost fair Lui ille's future seems to lie in the realm of art. We don't know what we'd do without her posters and draw- ings. Wonder what the diamond on the left hand means, and who the young gentleman is who helps her drive her Caddie around? Some day soon we'll have a new market in this metropolis — Fish and Lamb. Myrtle Josephine Fisk With stately tread she moves Myrtle forms a triumvirate with Katherine and Pauline and is seldom seen unaccompanied by these two. She helps keep Goodnow Pearson's running on busy days. She has a way of uttering an indi idual cheer in the Assembly Hall when someone gets up to speak. Benjamin Flaum He also serves who only stands and waits Bennie is one of our small town professors. It is whis- pered that if [jcnnie wanted to show his speed at books someone would be left in the lurch. This lad works in the afternoon but what does he do with his evenings? 21
