ROSE DeBAGGIS 72 Alpine Place Franklin, Mass. Rosie” ‘‘A nymph of healthiest hue.” Rose DeBaggis. The name immediately brings to your mind a girl with wavy brown hair and laughing eyes. She is good- natured and makes a joke out of almost nothing. She seems to be having a lot of fun this year and is always with a fun-loving group. We wonder what Rose will do when she is separated from her friends in school. Make the best of the present, Rose, for who knows what the future holds for us! Blue and White 4, Track 2, Glee Club 1, Social Committee for Year Book 4, Marshal 4. LAURA D’ERRICO 3 1 Ruggles Street Franklin, Mass. LAU” ‘‘There’s nothing so kingly as kindness, And nothing so royal as truth.” Laura has a talent which we all know about. It is her fine singing voice. If she keeps up her singing, and studies further along the line of music we shall some day probably hear her on the stage or over the radio. Who knows? Laura’s favorite hobby is listening to the radio and she never misses Bing Crosby’s crooning. After graduation Laura expects to be a salesgirl in the Mity- gud Pastry Shoppe. We wish you luck in the future, Laura. Freshmen Acquaintance 3, Glee Club 2, Music 4, Blue and White 4, Halloween Party 4. ALBERT DE GRAZIO 68 Alpine Place Franklin, Mass. AL” ‘‘An honest man’s the noblest work of God.” The little fellow of our class was Albert. Though he was so quiet that half the time we didn’t even know he was around, in the classrooms he held his own. His favorite hangout was Miss Anderson’s room where very often a wrestling match be¬ tween him and John De Napoli took place. Of course it was just in fun, as they were great pals. Al’s many friends enjoyed being with him in and out of classes. We hope Albert will make good in the future. BLANCHE DE GREGORIO 13 Alpine Place Franklin, Mass. Blandy” ‘‘Silence answers much.” Does she study up at the library every night—or what? Hail to Blanche! The only commercial student who dared to venture into the 3rd year French Class. A lovable, silent girl is she who tries hard and gets what she goes after. Blanche is not content to satisfy; she desires to excel, and therefore always endeavors to do her best. Her ready smile shows that she understands the bright and joyous aspects of nature. Our parting wishes to you are health, happiness, and suc¬ cess. Hockey 1-2, Hallowe’en 4, Baseball 1-2.

Prospect Street Franklin, Mass. “Edie” “Colors of every tint and hue Mingle in one harmonious wholel” Though Edith has the hair and the artistic touch usually ac¬ companied by the artistic temperatment, you’ll find her a quiet, unassuming girl, slight of budd, and distinguished by a spon¬ taneous giggle that just will come out. Whenever a picture or poster of outstandingly lovely line and color appeared in school you didn’t have to look at the name to know that the artist was Edith. Here ' s wishing you fame and fortune in your chosen field of art. Art Committee for Prom. 1-2-3-4, Art Editor of Melting Pot” 3, Art Editor of Blue and White” 1, Art Committee for Oskey” 4. CATHERINE DAILEY Peck Street Franklin, Mass. Kitty” “Happiness is from within, not from without.’’ Such a happy person as Catherine is as refreshing as a cool breeze on a hot day. With Kitty around there are never any dull or tearful moments. Her girlish giggle, followed by her current, Yipee, Gramma, Yipee!” generally announces her presence. Her favorite sport is bike-riding—usually in the di¬ rection of cars. Kitty’s skill as a cook is readily attested to by her friends. If happiness is true success, Kitty has already found it. Glee Club 3, Music 1-2, Hallowe’en 4. EVELYN DAVIS 4 Summer Street Franklin, Mass. “Evy” “A perfect woman, nobly planned. To warn, to comfort, and command.” If you would have something well-done don ' t do it yourself, let Evelyn do it. She has the ability of managing things with the best results and has been a moving spirit of the class. The combination of beauty and brains is admittedly rare, but Evy always was at the top of the class and floating with ease through the hardest subjects, as well as being most attrac¬ tive, with dark wavy hair and a bright smile. Evelyn plans to enter Radcliffe College next fall. Chairman of Ring Committee 3-4, Associate Editor of the Oskey” 4, Dramatics 3-4, Tennis 3-4, Blue and White Staff 1, Marshal 4, Decorating Committee for Prom 3, Music 1. LUCY DeBAGGIS McCarthy Street Franklin, Mass. LOU” “Thought is deeper than all speech.” Never behind in anything—that’s Lucy. For four years her pleasing good nature has been warmly appreciated by F. H. S. Nothing is ever too much for Lou when a classmate needs some help. Her sound advice and ready-to-help spirit have accom¬ plished much to put things over. Not only in her studies but also in another field does her cleverness lie. She received in her sophomore year a reward for her excellent progress in home economics. We are certain the world will gratefully welcome this girl. Finance Comm. Oskey 4, Glee Club 4, Hallowe’en Party 4. Page Twenty-Four

DOMINIC DELFINO 31 Chestnut Street Franklin, Mass. “Dinah” “A great sport and a friend to all.” ' Tis often said that a rolling stone gathers no moss, but here is one fellow who succeeded in obtaining Morse of the genus “Dot.” On the diamond Dinah has given valuable assistance as an alert third baseman. He ' s a chummy chap with a fasci¬ nating smile who, unlike most athletes, is also a smooth dancer. Dinah’s hobby is photography, and were he to decide to make this his vocation every one would have his pictures taken. Why? With whom does that smile not raise havoc? Football 2, Baseball 2-3-4, Dramatics 3, Glee Club, Band 1-2-3-4, Halloween Party Committee 3. JENNIE DIPIETRO 19 Mechanic Street Bellingham, Mass. “JEN” ‘‘A friend when friends are wanted most.” Jennie is certainly a necessity to the Commercial Department. It seems as though she is always typing and running off stencils for some teacher. Jennie seems to be paving the way to a suit¬ able position, and we all wish her the best that luck can offer. “Jen” is a very likable person, as you will agree if you have talked with her. Good luck, Jen, and don ' t forget the good times you had in F. H. S. Basketball 1-2, Music 1, Year Book Committee 4, Blue and White 4. ARTHUR DYE 228 W. Central Street Franklin, Mass. “ART” “7 scorn to change mg state with kings.” Art has always had more or less of a quiet disposition and has always been a good student, though studying did not hold his entire interest. He also was prominent in sports, and in the band, of which he has been an active member during his four years in High School. His ardent school spirit prompted him to attend all the games and parties whether he cared about going or not. Although Arthur ' s plans for the future have not been completed as yet, we wish him all the luck possible in what¬ ever he attempts. Jr. Prom. Com. 3, Cap and Gown Com. 4, Band 1-2-3-4. MARTHA ELLSWORTH 693 East Central Street Franklin, Mass. “Martha” “Those smiles and glances let me see.” Martha was a quiet girl in our class, but it was indeed a great pleasure to have her as one of our classmates. Can Martha drive a car? Sure she can, and we all remember the day she received her license. Martha was never late for school and she could be seen in her homeroom with a large circle of friends gathered around her, discussing the events of the day. Her plans for the future are to go further on, and her suc¬ cess in life is sure. Blue and White 4, Music 4. Page Twenty-Six
