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]

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]

Edward Simpson Hooper Modest, yet all of a king is he Eddie is one of the stellar athletes of our class. He shone in class as well as on the gridiron or cinder path. Eddie ran the best time for our class in last year's Junior-Senior race. We hope he will repeat his fine performance again this year. We understand Eddie likes the fairer sex, but is rather timid in showing anv inclination toward them. Basket Ball' (2-3), Track, Football (3). Ada Madeline Houghton know it is a sin, for me to sit and grin Ada is dark-haired, very attractive, and gay. She was very popular, and had a host of friends of both sexes. You never saw Ada with a frown on her face. Ada was undoubtedly one of the outstanding girl athletes in the school. She is fond of all sports, and starred especially in hockey, basket ball, volley ball, and track. Track (2-3), Basket Ball, Hockey, Volley Ball (2-3-4). Robert Hayes Houghton Men of quality are above wit Do not allow vourself to be deluded by thinking that Rob- ert isn't a busy boy. He is planning to go to Worcester Tech. and is getting the marks to enter yet without forgetting other activities. Outside of school, when he wasn't working in the stock-room of the Fitchburg Gas and Electric Company, he was either skating, swimming, or trading stamps, all accord- ing to the season. Ring Committee (3), French Club (4). Everett Frederick Innerasky His talents are of a more silent class Everett is quiet and not boastful, but he was one of the pillars of our art department. His taste and skill may be seen in some numbers of our Red and Gray and even in the Class Book. His greatest hobby is drawing, of course, but skating and tennis are also enjoyed by this boy artist. Squad B Football, Palette Club, Councillor, Assistant Man- ager Baseball (3), Manager of Baseball, Red and Gray Board (4). Josephine Jenny Jarski A merry heart goes all the day You can't miss Josie in a crowd because of her red, red hair! Whenever Cline's orchestra plays at a Shirley dan'-e, Josie is sure to be there. She worked for Mr. Howard every other week, but regardless of part-time dignity, we could hear her hearty laugh resound from one end of the corridor to the other. She was an enthusiastic rooter at the football games. In addition to her fondness for dancing, she enjoys playing checkers with Shirlev Hatch. Glee Club (3). Armas Donald Jarvela Young fellows will be young fellows! .Armas's influence at the Sentinel gave many an athlete a good writeup. The basket ball and baseball teams seemed to get the best advertising. He spent more time with his gang than with his studies. Armas's motto is Never trouble trouble. Basket Ball (2-3-4), Baseball (3-4). 26
