Austin, whose head is topped by wavy, red hair, is called Red by his friends. He is about as pleasant a fel- low as there is in the class. Altho he is quiet, he has a personality which appeals to all. He has the reputation of being shy, but we who know him well will realize that this is not so. He is very fond of mechanics. Red cer- tainly is a wonderful dresser, and his snappy attire attracts a great deal of attention. He is a daily passenger on the Shirley Limited, and does his part in helping to keep things merry. Glee Club (4), Dramatic Club (4). Henry Arthur Dunn His life is neither tossed in boisterous seas Of troublous world, nor lost in slothful ease.

We wouldn't be astonished at all if he were elected to the Board of Selectmen of Shirley some day. Glee Club (2). Elizabeth Caro Eells A curly head — a happy heart. Elizabeth is one of the happiest and gayest members of our class. Elizabeth would make an ideal toe-dancer if she studied, because of her high arch.

She is also fond of sports, and devotes her spare time to playing basket-ball for the (iirl's Club. Glee Club (1), Orchestra (1-4). [19]

class '29 book Eli Manuel Fix Serene I fold my hands and wait. Eli is one of our quiet, unassuming boys, and so is seldom spoken to by any of tiie teachers. Eli must expect to be a great man some day, for he is seldom seen without a book. Whether those books concern his studies, we can- not say, but let's hope for the best. Glee Club (3-4), Band (2), Debating Club (2). Margaret Irene Flanagan Tall and serene, fine a girl as ever was seen. When in a crowd Margaret is seldom heard, but among her friends she talks ceaselessly. Margaret believes in doing her work thoroughly and faithfully. Her name is always seen on the honor roll. She has not been with us very much this year for she divides her time between the Fitchburg High School and the Safety Fund Bank. Mar- garet has been wearing a football for a long time, but only to her closest friends has she disclosed the name of the owner. Shirley Ida Flaum chatter, chatter as I go. We are always aware of Shirley's presence for her cheer- ful voice can be heard wherever she is. She overflows with news, and is always ready to impart her knowledge to her friends. The movies seem to hold a special attraction for Shirley, and she spends most of her leisure time there. Reading is another of her pastimes, and Shirley has often burned the midnight oil to finish an exciting novel. Glee Club, Debating Club, Public Speaking Club, Ukulele Club,. Lewis Clayton Fletcher Once a friend, always a friend. Here is a boy who can be depended upon, altho he may not be a wise guy or a human wonder. His favorite studies are English and Chemistry. If you can't find him at home or studying in the library, he is sure to be out shooting skunks, or maybe catching record size fish out of some sequestered nook. Frank Fredrick Friberg My talents run in many directions. Frank is one of Miss Smith's history sharks. .Altho he is a newcomer from Westminster, he is already considered one of the olfi timers of our school. He is the proud owner of one of the wonder [iroducts of the Ford Motors Company. It is not a Lincoln. The roof is a bit weatherworn and there are [jolka dots of Westminster mud on it. Prize S[)eaking (2), Basket-ball (3j. [21]
