AVCAVXXVIII CLASS '25 BOOK Hubert Joseph Boudreau My oivn thoughts are my companions Hubert is a very studious student. He never sits idle, but always has some studying to do.

Good Citizenship Club (1). Victor Rudolph Boutilier In vain on study, time away we throw Victor would make a lovely farm-boy. He is very re- served and spends all of his spare school hours studying.

Malcolm Edward Bowes It's a great plague to be handsome Malcolm seems to attract the girls' attention. We admit that he is quite sheikish-looking when he walks down Main Street, in his Sunday go-to-meeting clothes, with brown-eyed Dolly by his side. Malcolm is a sub on the football team. We don't know much about Malcolm's future; perhaps he is planning to join the marines. Basket-ball (2-3-4), Football, Track, Relay (3-4), Class Play, Councillor (4).

3 CLASS '25 BOOK iK William Gardner Berndt Bill the conqueror holds no idle claim to renown, for he not only captained our marvelous football team, but also starred in other sports, notably running. His avocations are gum-chewing and talking, which occupy a good twenty- four hour day, making the endurance of his jaw a subject for profound admiration. S'et his is a far from empty brain, for Bill has conceived more ingenious plans for snap book reports than any mortal before or since. His winning smile carries him over any amount of wearisome toil, and the only course that stumps is French, which naturally goes against the grain of a Teuton. Bill will undoubtedly attain a high standing in the world, for he has already passed the six-foot mark. Operetta (1), Football (2-.V4), Captain of Football, Basket-ball, Glee Club, Debating Club (4).

Dorothy Ann Bolt Laughter should dimple the cheek Dot is a cheery soul, and knows withal what is the proper time and place for mirth. Bookkeeping seems to hofd a peculiar fascination for her, for her desk is continu- ally littered with the impressive sheets of that vintage.

CLASS '26 BOOK Howard Allen Bridgman, Jr. The very pink of perfection Howard's name seems to give some an opportunity to jolly him. But if they have an idea that he's a meek per- son, they're all wrontf, for Howard is a game and scrappy fellow. All sports have a great interest for him. Out- standing among these is basket-hall which he plays with keen relish. Historical dates and references are carefully stored away in his mind, and those which are unknown to him are few and far between.

She took the Commercial Course, but most likely, instead of pounding the typewriter she will spend her time teaching physical exercises to the other employees. Operetta, Glee Club (1). James Curtis Bul cock Haste makes waste Speed is exactly the same in recitation and action. .Slow and steady wins the race is his maxim. It would take something quite out of the ordinary to excite Jimmy. Unlike his fellow Americans, whom the Fnglish find always in too much of a hurry, Speed takes his time. Everyone admires him for his straightforwardness and his sports- manlike manner. Jim would make an honorable, impar- tial, and upright judge. Glee Club (3), Track (4).
