Charles James Apostolos He who is honest is noble, Whatever his fortune of birth The first thing you notice about Constantinos Demetrios Apostolopoulos is his smile and then you notice Charlie. He is the recognized mascot of the football team and looks his best in Bill Berndt's red football hood. Manager of the Relay Team, 1026. Maurice Ernest Belanger There's a good time coming Maurice is one of our part-time classmates. Jumping from school to the Simonds Company every other week is some task and it is doubtful if many of us could keep up his bit in school life as well as he has under the same cir- cumstances. He does not seem to worry over book knowl- edge, preferring to gain bits of wisdom during his week away from school. Be ready to join in some kind of merry- making when Maurice is present because it follows him like a pet dog. Alfred Berndt Brevity is the soul of wit Alfred is brief in his conversations with girls, but w ith boys he talks as much as any girl. He spends much of his time at Turner Hall where he has de veloped into quite an acrobat. As a student, he is as good as the average. He excels in Mathematics. His brilliance in Civics is also remarkable. We imagine, too, he keeps Miss Stratton busy the sixth hour. Roger Goodrich Bigelow Roger comes from Lunenburg. Though not very active in the social events of the class, he is always present when it comes to studying and getting good marks. He surely handles traffic near 24 to perfection. Though seemingly cross at times, he never really gets angry. Well liked by the pupils as well as by the teachers on account of his sincerity and friendliness. Glee Club, Marshal, Band. Jessie Bernice Brewer A soeiul smile, the sympathetic tear Jessie, always cheerful and sympathetic, is everybody's friend. She is as good in her lessons as she is at the piano. Her laugh is spontaneous and catching; one good joke and, whoops, Jessie is airing her giggle again. Whatever she does is always done A No. 1. Willing and dependable. 11

Ture Oiva Aittola The study of vain things is laborious idleness Ture is a French shark and for this reason is quite popu- lar with Miss Champagne. Ture strolls to school each day from the vicinity of Green's pond, a distance of three or four miles, more or less. He is rather bashful and girls are mere figures on the landscape to him. A good student. David Muir Allan Dave's the boy for whom the ballot box was stuffed when the French Club elected a treasurer. Not satisfied with this club alone, he joined Miss Stratton's Stock Co., otherwise known as the Dramatic Club. Dave was very popular his Junior year, but his work at the lunch counter may have had much to do with that. We missed the bonus our Senior year. Football, Basket-ball, Class Relay Team, Treasurer of French Club, President of Boys' dee Club, Dramatic Club, Class Play. Rose de Lima Barbara Allen Shy and retiring Rose is one of our musicians ana plays the fiddle in the orchestra. She is one of the few maidens of the class who have retained their crowning glory. We often wonder how Rose manages to arrive at school on time every day as she comes from 'way down South Fitchburg. Rose always has a sunny smile for all. Orchestra, Glee Club. Elizabeth Theresa Anderson For her face is the fairest, That e'er the sun shone on Elizabeth is a resident of that suburb known as West Fitchburg. She does her daily dozen by sprinting for the car. When good looks were passed around, Elizabeth surely got her share. One of our part-timers who helps run the Americanization office. In school, she is seldom seen without her dearest friend, Helen, or vice versa. Shorthand is her favorite subject. Eh, what? George Marshall Andrew George is the life saver of the class and is employed during the summer at the F. L. bath house at Whalom. At the beginning of this year we noticed that George seemed to like one of the leading ladies at the Universal Theatre who happened to be only a Sophomore, but after awhile we Seniors got him to be more dignified. There is no question in our minds who in future years will take Mr. Chalmers' place in 44 as a teacher of Chemistry. 10

James Owen Brooks With fists and heels With might and main Jimmie has taken a little longer than the rest of us to graduate from F. H. S. He went out for football this year, but Coach Tarpey thought he was too old to become a milk-fed baby. Jimmie's main thought is boxing and he may be found at the Y. M. almost any time indulging in the sport. Some day we expect to hear that he has taken the crown from Tunney. Elsie Lord Brown Indeed she zvas a merry lass Elsie's bright smile and cheery countenance have made her many friends. When she is present, one can be sure of a good time. She has been football and basket-ball teams, week working in the office of Company. Hockey, Basket-ball. loyal supporter of our She spends every other the Cowdrey Machine Helen Maron Brown Congratulations to the girl who made four years in three, and with an honor record, too! Only those in Helen's classes can appreciate her keen sense of humor which creeps out and manifests itself occasionally. Helen is loyal to all school and class activities; dramatics, ath- letics, and musical affairs. Although she has not partici- pated in these activities herself to a great extent, she is always ready to give her word of encouragement. Orchestra, French Club, Dramatic Club, Red and Gray Board. Catherine Irene Burns Breezy and jolly is she always Kay does her daily dozen by sprinting for the West Fitchburg car every A. M. She chases up lost books for Miss Sherwin in the library. She enjoys all sports and is a splendid dancer. Hazelle Frances Burns Nature's gifts are priceless Hazelle is a pretty girl with the nicest cheeks (we imagine they're natural) and sparkling eyes. She has a great interest in West Fitchburg. If you wonder why, ask her from whom she received that lovely umbrella last Christmas. Don't get the impression that she neglects her lessons because of outside distractions, as she never lags too far behind her mates at school. 12
