Stanley John Matuszeuricz A youth was he of quiet ways. Stanley is a quiet lad who hasn't taken much interest in school activi- ties. Size has prevented him from competing with the more brawny fellows in athletics, but he is quite eminent as a caddy at the Oak Hill Country Club. Arvo Aho A jaithful man and honorable. Here is our bashful lad from Westminster. We are told by his friends that his good humor never ceases and that he is always ready for some fun. His sunny disposi- tion has gained him many friends. Angelo Michael lacoboni am master of my fate. Angelo is one of our outstanding pupils in the college course. He has a purpose in life which we trust he will accomplish.! Being a dimin- utive lad, it is impossible for him to participate in all sports. But that doesn't stop him from being one of our tennis stars.

Algidio Pasquale Membrino A good worker who gets results. Membrino has always been known to be quiet around school and many of us were misled by his sober ex- pressions. To our surprise, he is quite the contrary and enjoys him- self at every opportunity. At pre- sent his hobby is setting up pins for the boys at the bowling alley. Junior-Senior Relay 3 Edward Thomas Donnelly A lad of nimble foot. Ed is a newcomer here, but he's made up for that long ago. He is a good dancer and he and his side- kick, Don Boyce, can often be seen at many of the local dances. Al- though he's quiet about the school, don't let him fool you, for he is not so silent outside. Ellen Valvakki Niemi A maiden who is richly blessed With loads of friends and happiness.

She is careful to have her homework completed, but also finds time to sew and read. Her hobby is collecting snap-shots. William Wallace Revell A fine fellow, liked by all he meets. Bill is more quiet than some of us, but outside of school, so we hear, he is less silent. He is a dependable student. Bill's grin is known to many people and it has helped him to gain many friends. Richard Libby Noble His stately mien as well implied the martial pride as high-born heart. Dick is another of our football men and did very good work with the team.

Howard Henry Andrews He came in from ihe country. Although Howie plays in the orch- estra, he is not adverse to letting the others play while he guides the fair damsels about the dance floor. As Howie hails from the top of Pearl Hill his favorite song is, I'm way up heyah, she's way down theyah. Senior Thanksgiving Dance Committee Orchestra, Band 2, 3, 4 Raymond Joseph Beaulieu He tried the luxury of being good.

Yolanda is one of those persons who are endowed with that all too rare power of listening. She is ever alert for any bit of humor and a perpe- tual twinkle in her eyes suggests some mischief which, however, we have yet to see demonstrated. Hockey 2 Volleyball 2, 3 Glee Club 3 Hilkka Mary Heikkila Her soft voice, her alluring charms have won her many friends. Hilkka, always cheerful and friend- ly, is a good and dependable stu- dent, working in the office every other week. She takes part in school sports and has a fondness for skat- ing and dancing. French Club 2 Hockey, Basketball 2, 3 Volleyball, Dramatic Club, Councillor 3 Ollie Kullervo Rasanen There are smiles — Ollie is, as we have observed, a quiet sort of fellow except in Chem- istry. He is limited in his activi- ties outside of school though he is a real all around fellow. Unfortu- nately he fades back in the gallery of school activities. Irma Gertrude Bovellan She walks in beauty like the night Of cloudless climes and starry skies. Irma, one of the most popular members of our class, is a good stu- dent, a participant in school sports, and an excellent swimmer. Dancing is a favorite pastime with her.
