a LAWRENCE DAVIS Summer Street “Ikey” “Larry” Franklin He was a scholar, and a ripe good one.’’ “ Larry ” was the outstanding student during our high school career. His subjects were always prepared for every class and not a question was asked to which he did not know the correct answer. When report cards came out, Ikey took all the “ A’s ” but scholas¬ tic honors were not all the honors Larry claimed. He was simply a wonder at the violin. He represented our school in the prize speaking contest in his Junior year and his talents were needed to make any play at school complete. He was an important cog in the wheel of the ice hockey team. Larry ' s intentions are to attend Harvard College and become a lawyer. We are sure he will have no difficulty in accomplishing this, but we hope he will also stick to his violin.

MARGARET ELIZABETH DAVIS Dale Street “ Doc ” Franklin “ Bright was her face with smiles.” And her smiles never failed to gain an answering smile, no mat¬ ter what the gender of the other face. “ Doc’s ” activities among us were varied, placing her in the class of “ all-around.” She was represented in the lines of music, athletics, and social life. Also, her scholarship was of a grade to satisfy all demands. What more could he asked to make an ideal classmate. She had great ability along the domestic lines and could sew, cook, and keep house with the best of them.

DAUPHINEE Central Street “ Punk ” Franklin “ As wise as they come.” “ Punk ’’ represents the type that will push thru any obstacle and come out a victor. At the close of his second year he was almost decided to leave us, but his “ stick-to-it-iveness ” made him stay. As a result he has been on the honor roll several times, showing that when he makes up his mind to a thing, he does it. Possibly it was this quality in him that made him take to football so successfully. Lie sure could hold that line! And he could open up the opponents’ line, too. But, as is the way with football Heroes, the feminine gender proved a powerful attraction, and provided a “ line ” that couldn’t be broken up. Shirley is planning on being a teacher of Manual Training and Mechanical Drawing. Here’s to you, Shirley, may vou ever be as successful as you were at F. H. S.

MILDRED CORBETT Dean Avenue “ Milly ” Franklin “ The world knows nothing of its greatest women.” Allow me to introduce Milly. Indeed she is a business woman. One never sees Milly wandering aimlessly about the corridors. She is always going somewhere and she’s always in a hurry to get there. They say she is a wizard at typing! Her shy wit has made many close friends for her and she is always a welcome addition to any group of girls or boys. We hear she has accepted a posi¬ tion at the Franklin Yarn. Go to it, Milly! Won certificates from Underwood and Royal Typewriter Com¬ panies. The best in the school. JOSEPH B. CROWLEY East Central Street “ Joe ” Franklin “ A glass of fashion, and the mould of form.” “Joe was generally known as “that cute Senior with the darl¬ ing smile ” but he wasn’t afraid to get it mussed in football, basket¬ ball, or baseball, and he was a three letter man. “Joe” was mostly to be found in Medfield, as he didn’t believe in patronizing the home industry. He was very fond of homework, especially French, as it took his mind off “the more trivial things of life,” and gave him a chance to go to the library, where we all studied so hard. Joe is sure to make good wherever he goes, we are con¬ fident of that.

(Chairman) CLARA ELLEN CRUISE Union Street “ Cruisie ” Franklin “A friend to all, and a grand, good sport.” Clara is another one of our modern flappers of ’28 and also a “ Grand good sport.” A dance was Clara’s joy. No wonder. Who wouldn’t like a dance when one had all Clara’s partners. Cruisie did her best to keep pep in the class. She also helped her class athletically, as well as socially, strong proof of which was found in her black eye which she obtained in hockey. She is so well known that few words are needed to tell about her. Anything else you’d like to know about Cruisie, ask “ Mutt,” for she surely can tell you.

DANIEL D’ERRICO Ruggles Street “ Danny ” Franklin “ A good reputation is more valuable than money.” » Danny was a spirited fellow ' with lots of pep and energy. He liked discussions, particularly spirited ones. He seemed forever in a red hot argument. He wore a perpetual smile, which even the dread of exams, the excitement of a hand concert, or a basketball thrill did not erase from his features. Danny was a very friendly lad and known from one end of the town to the other. We send with you our best wishes for success in whatever field of work you try, Danny, and hope your spirit is always as ready as now, and we don ' t want any argument about that.

ROBERT ELMER FALLOWS Crooks Corner “Sonny” Bellingham “ The Collegiate Boy.” Sonny hailed from Bellingham. His were the characteristics that made for the good all-around chap; generosity, and joviality, a winning smile, and a willing heart. Sonny was an ardent sup¬ porter of the Thursday evening dancing classes and was indeed a Merry fellow! ” “ Sonny ” was a good sport and made many friends. We always saw that cheerful smile on his countenance, and we feel sure that if we met him some day in far off China, he would still wear the same happy smile. Sonny wants to become a Golf Pro’ and after seeing him in knickers, we are sure he will succeed. Junior Prom Committee ' 27; School Marshal ' 28; “ Oskey ” Financial Staff ' 28; Baseball ’28. PRESTON JOSEPH FARRINGTON Pleasant Street “ Buck ” Franklin “ The secret of success is constancy to purpose.” “ Buck ” was an iron man on the football team, and a clever all- around athlete. He was one of the most respected and best liked fellows of the class. His cheery modest way won the hearts of all of us. Activities? It made no difference to him. He entered into the spirit of whatever was happening or whatever required his services, with as much vim and zest as he hit the line in foot¬ ball. As a good fellow, he ranked A-one, and won the second prize in the Singleton Prize-speaking Contest in his Senior year. We all appreciated his good naturedness and humor, and consider ourselves lucky for having known him. May your star be bright and successful, “ Buck.” Football ’26, ' 27, ’28 (Capt. ’28) ; Interclass Basketball ’27; Track ' 28; Public Speaking ' 28.
