Robert Paul Daniels He hath indeed bettered expectation. Here is happy-go-lucky Bob. Always with a smile on his face, he is the bright light among his friends. Robert was the co-manager of the football squad and proved himself very valuable. Last June Bob ran in the Junior-Senior Relay. French Club 2, 3, Junior- Senior Relay Team, 3, Football Manager 3, 4, Track Team 4. John Lyman Deery The tree is known by its fruit. John is a fine specimen of manhood. He is active in his physica training class and has the possibilities of a second Tarzan. He enjoys outdoor sports and excels in swimming and skiing. We are still wondering who receives those long letters he writes every- day. Football 3, Marshal 4. Norman Frederick DeLisle His friends are everywhere. Norman does not let studies bother him, nor does he bother studies. If any one tells you Norman does not like the girls, don't be deceived. Norman occasionally works at Brockelman's. He frequently attends Miss Haskin's afternoon classes, and also got very well acquainted with Mr. Chalmers and Mr. Howe. Roland Demers And gladly would he learn. Rollo, as he is called by most of his friends, is another one of those classroom wisecrackers. He usually picks the corner seat of any class for that purpose. As a result of his comedy, Rollo has often wound up in 201. Outside of school, Roland works in Lareau's Printing Shop. Intramural Baseball 3, Junior-Senior Relay 3, Intramural Basketball 3, 4. Claire Denise Chouinard Silence is better than unmeaning words. Tony is one of those persons with an equal amount of likes and dislikes. She loves bowling and roller skating, but dislikes ice skating. She is vary witty, a success in chemistry, and enjoys the movies. Her hobbies are wearing bright colors and growing long fingernails. Dramatic Club 4. Mary Anne Cicala A friend may well be reckoned the masterpiece of Nature. Mary was a most ardent supporter of our football team! She was an usher at the Leominster game. Did she have fun rooting for us! May likas to listen to the radio, and agrees perfectly with Mr. Chalmers that Charlie McCarthy is the best thing on the airwaves. Hockey, Glee Club 2, Basketball 2, 4. Elizabeth Mary Clancy A laugh is worth a hundred groans in any market. Buddy is always bubbling over with joy and happiness. Nursing was to be her vocation, but after her recent sojourn at the Burbank, she is completely disillusioned. She is an ardent debater and especially enjoys her fervent debates with Franny. We find in her not only a joyous spirit, but a capacity for making friends of all her acquaintances. Hockey 2, Basketball 3, Debating Club 2, 3, 4, Dramatic Club 2, 4. Lillian Theresa Clark Enthusiasm is the life of my soul. Lillian likes to go about taking snapshots of her friends with her little Kodak. These pictures she places in a snapshot book, which is already very large. Lillian's favorite sport is swimming. She likes to enter all kinds of write-in contests and has already won five or six of them. Basketball, Volleyball, Dramatic Club 4. Page 18

Frank Michael Cioffi The heart of courtesy. If you're in the mood for a good laugh, look up this genius of wisecracks. Frank is a happy-go-lucky type of boy. He showed some real skill as a right halfback in this year's football games. Frank is often seen with his tall side kick, Alexander Ruberti. Football 3, 4, Intramural Basketball 3, 4. Norman Eugene Cotnoir The measure of a man's life is the well spending of it. Norman is one of the many pupils who come from Cleghorn. He is a very industrious lad for he won second prize in French II last year. He has no special pal, but is a friend to everyone. He always enjoys a good joke and also collects wise sayings for the fun of it. History Club 3, Chairman Club Christmas Party Com- mittee, 2, 3, French Club 2, 3, 4, Dramatic Club 4. Richard Norman Croteau Character is a perfectly educated will. Dick has a rollicking spirit which carries him merrily along the road of life. He likes to drive a car and is an expert in this field. Of course he played football — who can forget his diving tackles! He is often the center of attraction in more ways than one. Foot- ball 2, 3, 4, Track Team 3, Intramural Basketball 3, 4, Marshal 4. Robert Lee Daby Friends he has many, Foes, has he anyl Bob is that energetic lad who puts most of his strength into beating the big bass drum in the band. Bob is now president of the Hi-Y; with his inseparable pal Guy Farwell as vice-president. Bob is usually the subject of Guy's wit, but they are a congenial pair. Class Prophecy, Band 3, 4. Doris Marie Burby The simplest record of thyself is worth. With winter evenings spent at the St. Joseph Ice Skating Rink and summers at the Whalom Roller Skating Rink, Doris has an energetic and healthful hobby. Doris, although a bit shy, is an excellent assistant as Miss Mattson has discovered. Always ready to lend a helping hand to any and everyone, she is indeed a true friend. Hockey 2, Dramatic Club 2, 3. Sarah Mary Canale We grant although she had much wit, She was often shy of using it. This brown-haired, blue-eyed girl is an avowed movie fan. Sarah and her friend Molly are inseparable. In case you want to find out something about a recent movie, ask either Sarah or Molly. Lillian Doris Carignan Just a little girl, most dear and taking. Lillian is a cute little girl from Cleghorn who likes to collect snapshots and to correspond with people from foreign countries. Lillian loves to dance, and shagging is her specialty.

Michael Diamond Life is a jest, and all things show it, I thought so once, but now I know it. Mike is not very tall, and has dark eyes which seem to be always on the lookout for some mischief. Mike's favorite pastime is to see how long he can keep in his mouth, without being caught, a stick of gum which he is eternally chewing. Junior-Senior Relay 3, Intramural Basketball 3, 4. Francis John Dignam, Jr. A man's own manners do shape his fortune. Dig is another of those seniors who go in for dancing in a big way. Frankie was also one of our hard fighting gridsters for two years. He used to say he wanted to be a big sailorman, but lately we haven't heard him mention the Navy. Football 2, 3, 4, Dramatic Club 3, 4, Marshal 4. Thomas Magner Donovan Speech is great, but silence is greater. Tim is 2 true scholar. He spends a lot of his time translating Latin for Mr. Hubbard. He is frequently seen driving his father's Packard about town. He has a very great interest in science, especially biology. Many a night has Tim gone on a call with his father to watch an operation. We expect to see Dr. Thomas Dono- van's shingle hung out about ten years from now. Editor, The Boulder 4. Robert Joseph Drinkwine All must be earnest in a world like ours. Robert has a flair for bright colored flannel shirts, which he constantly wears during winter. He is described by some of his close friends as a quiet, peace-loving, right guy. His favorite sports are football and golf; he also likes running and was a member of the Junior Relay Team in 1938. Junior-Senior Relay 3. MOB ;' V Ruth Evelyn Connors Friendship is the breathing rose. Ruthie is one of our neatest dressers, for she seldom looks as if her feathers were ruffled. They say she's coming along fine with her driving lessons — of course with so many teachers, who wouldn't learn easily! Ruthie's big blue eyes have caused many a passing comment. Glee Club 2, Junior Banner Committee 3, Dramatic Club 4. Lillian Louise Copp Her smiling eyes with simple truth were stored. She flies through the air with the greatest of ease! This is Lillian on her skis. The girl must have been born to them! But she can skate equally as well. She also dances and likes the movies. Lillian enjoys herself throughly in whatever she does. Her secret, ''Be yourself. Barbara Vance Corkum The secret of success is, constancy of purpose. Barbara, a tall, pretty blond, is somewhat the belle of West Fitchburg. She can wear her hair in the most extreme styles and still look well since she has the advantage of a comely oval face. Barbara is a good sport, who takes delight in skating, swimming, and playing basketball. Hockey 2, Volleyball 2, 3, Basketball 2, 3, 4, History Club 3, Dramatic Club 3, 4.
