Gertrude Kyllikki Hannula A noble mind with a noble heart Gertrude is a real ruralite. In this day and age when we all are or want to be city dwellers, she lives on a real farm. When in the grades, she played volley ball every chance she got so that now it has become her hobby, with basket ball a close second. Walton Albert Harris Women? I never heard of them before, what are women like? Walton is one of our country lads, but he managed to get to school every morning providing the Shirley bus was run- ning. We hear, too, that he did a little more than his share in keeping the Limited in a continual upheaval. We often won- der when Walton did his studying for if he wasn't out riding in his huge bespattered car, he was sure to be out hunting. He intends to go to Burdett College. Glee Club (2-3). Helen Gorman Hassett Intermingle jest with earnest Helen may seem serious, but when you come to know her, you discover that she is just as full of fun as anyone else. Her hobbies are reading, swimming, and boating. She has a canoe, and often last summer we saw her out canoeing on Lake Winnekeag. Helen e.xpects to go to Law School, prob- ably Portia in Boston. Shirley Libby Hatch Her cheeks mantle with mirth Class rooms and study halls would be peculiarly unfamiliar without Shirley's expressive giggle. Judging by her report card, we would say that Shirley knows her Spanish. In a few years hence when we feel the need of a few sugar coated pills to cure our ailments, we may visit Dr. Shirley Hatch, for such is to be her chosen profession. Glee Club (3). Priscilla Elizabeth Healey laugh'd, and danc'd and talk'd and sang Priscilla evidently likes children as she was often seen walking with some in her Junior year, but we think that she later changed her views upon the subject. Priscilla was a loyal supporter of the High School football games. We noticed that she attended the games this year with an ex-football plavcr. She is also fond of tennis and swimming. Glee Club (3). Senia Mary Heikkila Cheerful company shortens the miles Senia is outstanding in girls' sports. She was on the Basket Ball, Volley, and Track Teams. She also excelled in skating and swimming. She is a quiet, cheerful girl. . cro.ss word has never been heard from her lips. Senia is bright in her studies. Basket Ball, Volley Ball, Track (3). [24]

Lauretta Rose Hamel laugh, for hope hath happy place for me Lauretta is blessed with dimples. She is very fond of skat- ing and frequently could be seen at St. Joseph's Skating Rink. We know why Lauretta got to school early; her boy friend has a car. French Club (4). Raymond Joseph Hamel am as sober as a judge'' Raymond is a quiet member of our class who spent all his spare time working in the shoe department of Parke-Snow, Inc. He is interested in gathering pictures and record feats of strong men. Since he is interested in strength, health, and physical culture, we hope he will be able to follow this as his life work. Orchestra (2-3-4), Gym Team (4). Lily Alice Hancock H er pale blue eyes smiled constantly Lily is a quiet little girl with a crown of red hair. She came from Waites Corner, and made a daily dash for the morning trolley in order to arrive on time. Her favorite hangout in school was at the end of the corridor on the third floor, where, during lunch period, she held an animated conversation with her numerous friends. Ethel Delia Handley The enticing smile; the modest seeming eye Here she is ! Ethel swings a mean racket and never gets excited. She won the girls' tennis championship cup for two years. Ethel is planning on college next year, but has no def- inite one in mind. Girls' Tennis Championship (2-3). Marion Blanche Hanks Honesty is the best policy Like so many great p)eople, Marion comes from a small town. In her native Westminster, she spends her spare time saying Number, please and I'll ring them again. Marion is not gifted with a silver tongue and we only hear from her occasionally. We e.xpect in the future to see her reading tem- peratures and taking pulses for we have heard her express an ambition for the nursing profession. Francis Joseph Hanley Carefree as the wind am I Francis and his pals worry not at all. There may be les- sons, say they, but why cause distress by preferring one. Pink teas, however, are not in his line. Football, sayeth he, is a man's sport and therefore away went Francis to prac- tice. Swimming, too, engages his interest. When not in pursuit of these manly acts, his time is free, but that's all he savs. Football (2-3). [23]

Gladys Margaret Heinig Laugh and give cheer as you go Gladys is one of our commercial part-time students, who worked at the Northern Worcester County PubUc Health Association. She also worked at Brockelman Brothers on Sat- urday at the Candy Counter. She is a member of the Turn- verein and is a good athlete. She plans to work in an office when she graduates. Virginia Heywood Such easy greatness, such a graceful port Ginny has gone through High School doing her share in several activities. Her dancing is to be remembered when we recall operettas and entertainments. We have often heard her sing and have also read her stories in the Red and Gray. Ginny's amiable self and pleasing personality, her ever ready willingness to help, prove her interest in her friends and her work. Dramatic Club, Glee Club (2-3-4), Belle of Barcelona, Pickles (3), Annual Concert, Festival of Bagdad (4). Hilkka Tuulikki Hietaranta Thy purpose firm is equal to the deed Hilkka and Sally got their morning exercise by walking to school from away out Blossom Street. Hilkka likes dancing very much and spends her Saturday nights at the dances. During the afternoons Hilkka acted as bookkeeper for a garage on Mechanic street. Glee Club (3). Margaret Mary Hilferty Grace is in all her steps! Heaven in her eye Margaret is one of the vivacious femmes of the class. Pretty, charming, a good dancer, and possessing a lively sense of humor, she is very popular with her classmates. We hear the chosen one is a working boy ! She spends most of her spare time chasing balls on the Alpine Golf Course. Glee Club, Operetta (3). Mary Hird She is a winsome loee thing Our Mary is a petite, unobtrusive person. She is happy with her friends whom she has won, with her beautiful smile and gentle manners. She worked, studied, and took part in activities with quiet enjoyment, laughing inwardly, we fear, at the silly bustle of the rest of us. She plans to go to Normal school and to take up the irksome business of teaching. French Club, Dramatic Club, Glee Club (4). Henry Heimo Hirvonen am a part of all that I have met Hennie, one of the few hunters of the High School, picks his game in the woods of Shirley, through which he has trudged endlessly in search of animals, fish, or fowl. He does his own photographing and develops his own proofs and prints. Through this medium, he has interested his friends at school in his hobbies. FHS [25]
