Weikko P s sa r er Mary C ssidy F. H .S. 1931 Bettu Bf Ke Lawrence 5c r !or Weikko Matti Pasanen He was a man, taken for all in all We were very proud to have Weikko as our class president. We felt pretty sure of fretting a wonderful start in our Relay if Weikko showed his heels to his opponent the way he did last year. As a matter of fact, the Seniors weren't near enough t o see his heels. Weikko was terribly busy, but he found time to be congenial to everyone. He hoped to go to Annapolis. Class President (3-4), Vice-President of Council (3), Dramatic Club (3), Marshal (3-4), Football (3), Junior-Senior Relay (3), Red and Gray Board (3-4), President of Council (4). Mary Rose Cassidy 'Her lips were made for laughter Black hair, brown eyes, and a fun-lovins laugh, — we all knewr who this was. She bustled about getting things done, always engrossed in this committee, or that club. She always seemed to have time for her studies, wonder of wonders, and was a first rate student. She took prominent parts in several plays. Above all. what could we and the team have done without Mary's frantic gesticulations as cheer leader. She held the honored position of clas= vice-president, but since there are a thousand things one might say. let it suffice that she was a well loved and admired member of our Senior class. Vice-President (3-4), French Club (2), Dramatic Club (2-3-4), Open Meeting Dra- matic Club (2-3-4), Glee Club (2). Operetta (2), Councillor (3-4), Marshal (4), Senior Class Plav. Elizabeth MacElroy Drake Best she's liked, that is alike to all Who could help liking Betty? Her class- mates couldn't, so they showed how much they thought of her by electing her class secretary for both Junior and Senior years. As her habitual smile showed. Betty never worried about anything, no. not even report cards. Really she had no need to worry. Betty faithfully attended all the football and basket ball games because she said she enjoyed them, but we wondered if one of our star players had anything to do with it. She planned to go to Normal School and we are sure she will be as pleasant a teacher as she was a pupil. Class Secretarv (3-4), Dramatic Club (3-4), Holy City (3). Marshal (3-4), Glee Club (4), Basket Ball (4), Class Prophecv Committee (4), Track (3). Laurence Henry Scanlon His presence illumines even the cloudy day Laurie was our faithful and efficient treas- urer for two years and filled this post most ably. Always popular with students and teachers alike, he found himself busy with all kinds of duties and positions. As the head marshal he kept the traffic moving along fmoothly and could often be found scolding some unsuspecting senior. Laurie won the Harvard Club book prize in his Junior year. We often found him absorbed in conversa- tion with another well-know n Senior. Class Treasurer (3-4), Dramatic Club (2-3- 4). French Club (3-4), Councillor (2-3-4), Red and Gray Board (3-4). Marshal (3-4), Open Meeting of Dramatic Club (2), Debat- ing Club (4). Senior Class Play. [ 10]

Aune Taimi Aalto 'Tis the mind that makes the body rich Aune maintained a splendid record through high school. She was on the high honor roll every marking. However, she was not the studious pupil who devoted all her time to studying as one would suppose by her marks. She was one of our best athletes. Hockey, basket ball, volleyball,— all these interested Aune. In short, she was an all around student. Dramatic Club (2-3-4), French Club (3-4), Hockey (4), Basket Ball (4). Esther Aho 7 he truly generous is the truly itise Esther was a quiet girl, living in a sequestered sphere of her own. For four years she came from Westnrnster to favor us with her very pleasing manner. Esther succeeded in keeping her real self from most of us, but nevertheless we heard from her friends that she was a very sociable companion. Priscilla Alden Sweet speaking oft a currish heart reclaims Priscilla was exceedingly shy, and sh? always recited in class in a very, very gentle voice, whereupon we all pricked up our ears to listen, for her answers were invariably correct. Very often indeed she won the coveted Very good ' from her teachers, and at this compliment she smiled and blushed so delightfully that even George Washington on the wall smiled in return. She planned to enter a business college after graduation and to be the Boss's right-hand man some day. Donald Pearson Allan Make much of men, good men are scarce Don was the best athlete in our class, and. in fact, in the whole school. He became quite fimous for his spectacular touch-downs; he knew how to shoot baskets; and he certainly could smash a baseball far out of bounds. We thought one reason for his ability was that Betty sent him home early whenever he made the trip to Shirley. At least, we hope she did. Anyway, he always seemed as fresh as a daisy, and we're inclined to think there was some magic behind it all. Glee Club (2), Football (2-3-4), Basket Ball (2-3-4), Base- ball (2-3-4), Junior-Senior Reception Committee (3), Class Book. Grace Helen Anderson ''Gentle of speech, beneficient of mind Grace was a quiet, studious girl who never failed to have her lessons done. She said her favorite sport was tennis although she was much interested in golf. After completing her high school education. Graoe intended to become a bookkeeper. Marshal (3-4). Barbara Gertrude Baker ' True as the needle to the pole Or as the dial to the Sun We thought of Barbara as true blue. Perhaps it was be- cause her eyes were blue, but more likely it was because she wasn't a bluff. She was always a good student. Barbara, though really of the quiet sort, was exceedingly fond of dancing. She was a part-time student and worked at the Normal School every other week where there were many good-looking fellows, which made work a pleasure. She in- tended to go to some business college when she finished h r course at F. H. S. Dramatic Club (3-4). [ 11 ]
