He also is ■ery acti 'e in the gymna- sium. Football 2, 4, Dramatic Club 4. Edward Samuel Imprescia can master awkiuard things. Eddie, in spite of his lack of height, was one of the faithful members of the football squad. He rarely missed practice, and often proved himself a good field general by the way he led the second team in scrimmage. Football 2, 3, 4, Relay 3, Basketball, Track 4. Robert Carroll Johnson Learning makes a man a fit companion for himself. Nick comes from the great industrial center of Fitchburg, the one and only VVaites Corner. His interests are baseball in the sum- mer when he pitches for the Waites Corner Heroes, and in winter his brand of hockey is e.xcelled by few in the school. When he isn't busy with sports he can be heard with his radio gi 'ing dots and dashes, and lots of flashes. Baseball 4. Robert EUstrom Johnson His interests range o'er everything A nd many vieics he holds. Bob not only can laugh without the slightest provocation but can make you laugh and enjoy yourself. He is tall and blond. His seeming indifference is his only weapon, especially in an argument. His mechanical, athletic, and dramatic abilities should combine to give him a successful career. Hand Book Committee 3, Councillor 3. Margaret Maude Gates So of cheerfulness, or a good temper, the more it is spent, the more o f it remains. Peg is the energetic young lady who led us in our cheers at football games. Wherever Peg may be she always has a cheerful smile and pleasant word for everyone. She also served very capa- bly as our class secretary in our junior year. AW through our school years she has been a leader and helped make our class a success.

Theresa Alida Gelinas Her interest extends in many directions. An acquaintance with Grace is all that is necessary to appre- ciate her spirit of cooperation and friendliness. Vou would never suspect it, but her twinkling eyes betray her love of wholesome fun. Theresa Marie Gendron Pleasure has been the business of my life. Theresa had many interests outside of school, although she was a loyal member of our class. Although she attended Beano games and seemed to enjoy roller skating, her real interest was in music. She played the violin and hoped to further this study at the Boston Conservatory next fall. Sophie Ghenes A girl sincere and true. Sophie has been a favorite with us since the beginning of our high school career. In spite of the long walk she has from home you can always find her ready for some activity. A great deal of her time is taken up with the Girl Scouts and playing hockey. Hockey 4, Dramatic Club 3, 4. Page 25

Jimmie is a skilled model builder and woodworker. He enjoys camping in the open in all conditions of weather. Tennis Tournament 4, Dramatic Club 4. .Senior Class Play 4. Leeman Eino Hendrickson Hunting was his sport. This strong willed out-of-door individual has little to say in school. He'd rather do his work, get out of school and spend the rest of the day in the woods. An expert woodsman and marksman, he should hit his mark. Norman Henry Hobbs Who to himself is Id-u.' no law doth need. Offends no law and is a king indeed. When we first were acquainted with Hobbsie. he was one of those blond curly-haired darlings that never did anything out of place. -Ah-er, we might say now that his hair has lost a little of its curl and maybe that's 'nuff said. .Norman is the seniors' pride in the line of personality and sportsmanship. Dramatic Club 3, 4. Robert Arthur Hopkins Toiling, rejoicing, helpful Onward through life he goes. Hoppy keeps a regular rogues' gallery, in which there must be a picture of almost even,- girl in school.

Ciinny is one of those pupils that seem to be always on the run.

Francis Thomas Kalagher Everywhere the question in life is not what ic'c gaiti but what we do. Franny is well known for his dealings in newspapers. He en-- deavors to satisfy all with his quiet inipressix e manner. Perhaps it was the exercise which he receives at his work thai enabled him to make such a splendid e.xhibition at the Junior- .Senior Kelay Race. Kelay . Edward Vettie Kalinen A man full of ambition. To find out what a perfect coordination of muscles means, one should watch Eddy on the gym floor. Did you e er see him do somersaults or hang by his toes -' He can also use his hands to great ad antages in making e.xcellent cartoons, drawings, and paint- ings. Football 2, 3. Lester James Kelty Life is a jest and all things show it, I thought so once, now I know it. I.ester is the red-headed lad from Westminster who whizzes to school in a (iraham on the mornings he o ersleeps. He thinks -ery little of studying, but to his ad antage he has that air which seems to get away with exerything. He hopes in the near future to take up the study of I iesel engines. Football 2, 4. Toivo Francis Kerttula From him all sorrow flies afar. Toivo is a quiet and unassuming youth, who is not really known to any save his own chums. He is ery proficient in handicrafts. Though quiet, Toiv'o is well liked and the better he is known the better liked. Rachel Mary Giamarino In faith, lady, you have a merry heart.
