Paul Sam Aisi He who is honest is noble, Whatever his fortunes may be. Paul, in his senior year, was one of the candidates for the foot- ball squad. Although he ne er achie -ed great fame, he was a faith- ful member of the squad, and was usually seen in the company of Marella. Football 4. Michael Sylvester Altieri () ; who can forget the mild light of his smile? Mike hails from the neighborhood of Rollstone Hill, but can usually be found with Mike Spylios. His fa orite spots seem to be West Street and the Spylios' fruit store in Leominster. V 'e wonder if it's a love of fruit or friendship that unites Mike and Spylios. Basketball 4. Rudolph Leonard Altonen A true friend is forever a friend. Rudolph is one whose interests are centered outside of school. -Although he appears to be 'ery quiet, he enjoys a good time with his friends. Rudolph is an ardent sports fan, and spends much of his time playing basketball at the '. M. C. A. Jerome Marvin Asher Slow and deliberate was his manner. Hail to the President of our Dramatic Clxib! He has appeared many times on the stage as an exceptionally fine interpreter of char- acter. He is capable, trustworthy, honest, and good sport, qualities which make Jerry, perhaps, the best liked and best known boy in our class. Dramatic Club 2, 3, 4, President Dramatic Club 4, Senior Class Play 4. Margaret Louise Abell Not too serious, not too gay, A very good friejid in every way. Peg is a great basketball enthusiast and plays a very good game. In her spare time she makes herself useful by being a mother's helper. Peg swims well and has, because of it, acquired a lovely tan. Altogether she is a great sport. Basketball, Volleyball 2, 3, 4, Hockey 4, Dramatic Club 3, 4. Helen Rosalie Adams To be merry becomes you. We wonder where Helen gets those humorous songs of which she has such a grand store, and also her thoroughly hearty laugh. Helen skates, draws and loves to chew gum. Her attitude toward school may not be a studious one but we can assure you that Helen enjoys herself in other ways. Helen Mary Antonelli She does well, acts nobly, Angels could do no more. Helen is a very quiet miss but, nevertheless, has many friends and is liked by all. .She does not par'ticipate in many school ac- tivities but we know she is kept busy in her outside circle. Drama- tic Club 3, 4. Jennie Ann Anzalone Her worth beams from her dark brown eyes. Jennie is a jolly girl with a reserved air. Not a strange combination either, since it gives her a delightful manner. Another asset is her dark curly hair, which caused great envy. Hockey 3, Basketball, Volleyball 2, 3, 4. Page 11

Robert Deane Ashline The kind of fell mi' who doesn't shirk, A nd is al'ii'iiys ready to do his work. How this tall, curly haired student can attain and maintain a place on the high honor list with little apparent work and effort, is far beyond our comprehension. His ready smile and pleasant manner ha 'e with ease given him a high social ranking, too. Foot- ball 2, Dramatic Club 2, Junior-Senior Reception Councillor 4. Charles Vernon Barry Music has charms alone for peaceful minds. Charlie, a member of the band and the orchestra, is a future maestro, as he is endowed with an unusual love of music. Another gift which gives pleasure both to him and his audience is his ability to recite the lives of many famous composers and a list of their works. Curly-headed Charlie and his trumpet are an inseparable pair. (Orchestra, Band 2, 3, 4. Lyman Murray Bates ; both diligence and silence there is safety. f,yman is our six-foot star football player.
