Arthur Jalmari Jarvi Small in body, big in mind Arthur besides being one of the smartest in our class is one of the smallest. He was a delight to the teachers. Art is also a great baseball player and covered second base for our team with great skill. Baseball (3). Joseph Jurga A generous friendship no cold medium knows Joe was a hard worker and a fine sport in his high school work. His record showed an unbroken string of honor marks which really must be envied. Although Joe did not take part in High School basket ball, we hear he played some brilliant games in Shirley Center. To hunt and fish in some remote spot is a diverting occupation for Joe. Junior-Senior Relay (3). Helen Hagburg Johnson They are never alone that are accompanied with noble thoughts Artistic Helen has won a warm place in the hearts of her classmates. She has a true sense of the artistic side of life, and is also endowed with much practical philosophy. Her name has often been seen on the honor roll. Dancing holds great allurements for Helen and after watching a few dances, we need not ask whv. Glee Club (2), Dramatic Club (2-3), Palette Club, Class Book Committee (4). Paul Clifford Johnson Sentimentally I am disposed to harmony But organically I am incapable of a tune One does not have to be a musician to be a music lover. Paul Johnson plays no instrument other than the radio, but his love for music can't be beaten. As a rule Paul spent his afternoons clerking in an A P Store, studying, and tuning in. Freda Olga Kandianis Good order is the foundation of all good things Freda is one of our future young business women. She was a part-time pupil and worked in the library. She is athletic and went out for all sports. She and Mary are inseparable. Mav it always remain so. Hockey (2-3). Jalo Aatos Kauppinen Him for the studious shade, kind nature formed Jalo doesn't say much unless he is called upon, but don't get the mistaken expression that he doesn't know it. In fact, what he doesn't know about physics and chemistry can't be very important. Although he doesn't care so much for certain other subjects, he gets good marks. He works at his father's jewelry store on Main Street. Piano playing is his favorite sport, indoor or outdoor. [27]

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

Charles Henry Kendall Studies serve jor delight, for ornament, and for ability Charley is well known to the students — especially the Eng- lish students, for he worked afternoons as an attendant at the public library. He also blew the trombone in the band, and seemed to enjoy it. Charles is an aviation bug and plans to study aviation at the Worcester trade school. Band (2-3-4). Edith Evelyn Keyes Free from cares, serene, and gay! Edith was unpretending in school and active in outside life. She loves dancing, dotes on swimming and frightens us timid souls with her horseback riding. Her aim in life is to become a teacher and bestow the benefits she has received upon the next suffering generation. A delightfully unaffected girl, and not too much addicted to stud ing. Band, Orchestra, Glee Club, French Club (4). Frances Anna Kincald Good humor and friendliness are the health of the soul Sincerity, loyalty, and helpfulness are only a few of Fran- nie's attributes. Four years her smile and pleasing manner have blossomed in our hearts and have caused us to respond and feel cheery, too. Although somewhat reserved, Frannie has been a loyal rooter for the teams and has proved a real friend to many of us. Glee Club, Dramatic Club. Mary Frances Kinsey A happy soul am I — and why not? Mary accomplished the principal task of her High School career — amusing her friends ! Have ou ever heard her gig- gling laugh or Oh yeah? They're good! When Kinsey's Rolls Royce is headed for the football games, our warning is, Watch Out! Working as pitcher of a baseball team and making all the home runs used to be Mary's favorite outside sport, but now it's attending the talkies. AUie Ingrid Kokkinen Of all the girls that are so smart, There's none like pretty AUie .Allie may not be as loquacious as most of the girls are, but that is because her mind is otherwise occupied. Allie types for Mr. Goodfcllow afternoons and for Mr. .■Xmiott mornings every alternate week. We hear .Allie is ver)- fond of riding in a new roadster. Hockey (2-3), Marshal (3-4). Sylvia Maria Koski What has a woman to do with politics I say? Sylvia is a pretty little girl with an infectious giggle and a broad sense of humor. She does say the funniest things !

She has no definite plans for the future, but she may enter Boston Domestic School. Glee Club, Hockey (2). [28]
