class '2Q book Jean Frances Louney Her good humnr is a fountain never dry. Lately Jean has developed a fondness for bunnies. Jean is musically inclined and has often entertained us at our club meetings with -ocal solos. We hear that she also entertained West Fitchbnrg at their minstrel show. It seems that Jean must tune in on the radio from one end of the day to the other for she never seems to miss a program. Glee Club (2-4), Dramatic Club (2-4), French Club (4). Elsie Louise Lowe Talent and wit, an excellent combination. Oh! how we envy Elsie's rosy cheeks and sparkling eyes. Tennis and basket-ball are her favorite sports. Elsie is a very loyal member of the Girl Scouts and may be seen tossing the drumsticks around quite cleverly. El was chairman of the Class Book Art Committee. Elsie keeps her slender figure by the long hikes she has each day to and from school. She tells us the country air gives her her rosy cheeks. Ukulele Club (1), Operetta (1), Basket-ball (1-2-.S), Tennis (2), Dramatic Club (2-4), Glee Club (4), Palette Club (4), Class Book Committee, Class Play. John Ellstrom Lundkvist Whose worth's wiknoivn, altho his height be taken. Lunky and Bob Greenwood are close rivals for the tallest boy in the class with Lunky slightly ahead. John showed his athletic ability as a member of the relay and basket- ball teams. His chief worry isn't women but the fact that he might receive all A's at the end of June. Lunky will never forget that day some unknown person set off a fire- cracker in gym class. His main outside interest is running the Johnsonia Building. We wish the University of Maine luck when it gains John as a loyal member in its ranks. Relay team (3). Aune Sylvia Lystila Her voice is ever soft, gentle, and low, An excellent thing in woman. Usually those quietest in school are the liveliest among their friends, and this is true of Aune. Aune and her chum Ellen are inseparable and the little green hearts, dangling from their sides, are their symbol of true friendship. Buddy Rogers, Clara Bow, and the rest of the silver screen stars have certainly received their share of support from Aune. In her Freshman year, the lights often burned far into the night while she read a ferocious cowboy or Indian storv. Glee Club (1), Spanish Club (.3), Dramatic Club (4), Marshal. Samuel Anthony Maffeo Yoti despise books. Sammy is always full of wit. Nothing seems to down- hearten him. A little thing like not taking a physics test doesn't make him feel badly. Sammy likes to play pranks. He insists that he never has to do his homework. In spite of all his faults he is a good boy. Sammy may be identified by his leather jacket. 135]

class '29 book Edwin William Leupold c :s a man of silence and of sense. Eddie is a very quiet person, but as the old saying goes, Still waters run deep. It seems that he is always busy at one thing or another, but his diligence is rewarded by his high marks. We are sure that Eddie will make a place for himself in this world if he keeps up the splendid work he has been doing. Relay Team (3), Marshal. Herman Irving Levin Good nature and good sense are usually companions. Herman likes an easy, quiet, poetic life. He's happiest when he is producing sweet strains from his violin, both for his own amusement and for the benefit of the school orchestra. The same qualities enable him to harmonize mathematical problems as attested by his success in Mr. Howe's classes. He wins many friends by filling his car with co-eds for the out-of-town athletic games. Orchestra (2-3-4), Dramatic Club (4), Relay Team. Anna Cecelia Lombard Let people laugh as long as I am warm. Merry, witty, and ready for a good time. She enjoys basket-ball games and other sports. Jackson's is also her goal after a lively game. She is a member of the famous quartet noted for a taste for amusements of a similar kind. Operetta (2). Effie Wilhelmina Longsjo Just a little girl, dear and taking. Effie is one of the quiet girls of our class, but if we could get the fine marks that Effie does, we would be floating in air. For no one deserves them more than she. She takes things as they come without a grumble. Effie is always ready to greet her chums with a cheerful smile. Her readiness to give a helping hand to those who need it has added mliny friends to Effie's list. Ruth Elaine Longsjo Cheek or chin, knuckle or kyiee Where shall Ruth's dimple be? We suspect Ruth's mother of having placed thimbles in her cheeks when she vas a baby for she has an irresistable pair of dimples. Ruth thinks the best place for books is in school, yet she skips ofT with high honors each time. Never start an argument with her because she's bound to win it. She'll talk so long that you will be willing to say that black is white. To Ruth as editor-in-chief of the Class I5ook, we owe a great deal of gratitude for making it a success. We are sure she will never be an actress be- cause she dislikes making public appearances on the stage. Glee Club (2-3), Class Book Committee, Marshal. [34]

class '29 book Walfrid Andrew Makela It's a great plague not to be tall. Words are only in the dictionary as far as Mac is con- cerned, for he believes that deeds speak louder than words. He has proved himself a good student and a crack athlete, as he is one of the best basket-ball players that ever repre- sented Fitchburg High. Basket-ball (2-3-4), Relay Team (3), School Council. Alice Emily Malo She talks little but says much. Alice has to rise quite early in the morning at her South Fitchburg home in order to catch the bus to avoid being marked tardy. She takes the part-time course and helps Miss Fuller. Alice is very short with light brown hair and lovely brown eyes which make her very attractive. Dramatic Club, Glee Club, French Club Margaret Esther Malone Laughing and gay and full of fun. She is ever ready when frolic' s begun. Margaret doesn't believe that silence is a virtue, neither does she believe that studying should be listed under that heading. Her blue eyes and roguish smile, however, tell us just what kind of good sport she is. With her ready wit she is always ready for a laugh. Jolly just describes her. Her particular buddy is Ruth. Basket-ball (1), Glee Club (2-4), .Spanish Club (3). Grace Eastwood Marland Buried among my books I lie. Grace is a part-time student whom we share every other week with Miss Sherwin in the library. Grace toils after- noons and Saturdays waiting on patrons of Grant's. We do not believe she is greatly interested in those of the other se.x now'in school. If you want a good time, page Grace. She is always on the job in school and out. Glee Club (1), Ukulele Club (1). Roy Emerson Martin Ambition is the growth of every clime. Take a good long look at him, boys. One of our rural- ists, by gum! Hovve er, don't fool yourself by thinking that he's the kind that can be tricked by us poor city chaps. In gym he shows us all up. As a matter of fact, we feel that all his teachers will be sorry to lose him, for he certainly is a good student. [36]
