fos Key RUTH FRASER Mill Street F ranklin, Mass. “Fashioned so slenderly, young, and so fair .” Tall and extremely slender, Ruth is one of our outstanding feminine athletes. She makes no more work of jumping over a pole four feet high, than of stepping over a rock. Ruth ' s dialectic imitations and humorous poems are a constant source of entertainment for her friends, while her frequent trips to Boston remain a constant source of mystery. We wish Ruth lots of luck in whatever she may undertake. Commercial Club 2-3, Track 1-2-3-4. HAROLD FRESN Charlotte Street Franklin, Mass. “One blast upon his bugle horn Was worth a thousand men.” Every class must have its Don Juan, and ours is no ex¬ ception. Harold most competently fills that office. With ever¬ present smile he gains welcome everywhere. What girl refuses him a dance; that is, when he isn’t playing with the “Harmo- nians”? His talent as a trumpeter has also been a benefit and pleasure to both the band and the orchestra. Good-looking, good-natured, and talented as he is, there can be no doubt con¬ cerning Harold’s future success. Dramatics 3-4, Orchestra 1-2-3-4, Pres, of Band 1-2-3-4, Jr. Prom. Com. 3, Freshmen Acquaintance Com. 4, Halloween Committee 3-4. BRUNA GEROMINI 31 Peck Street Franklin, Mass. ‘‘Gerry’’ “A springy motion in her gait, A rising step—” Bruna is a star basketball player who knows how to play the game. She will be greatly missed when next basketball season comes around, and it will be hard to find anyone who can play as Bruna did in her position as forward. Bruna is so active that at some games you can hardly keep up count with the baskets she makes. Bruna is also prominent in other sports. We hope, Gerrv, that your aims will always reach their goal as your ba sketball did. Basketball 1-2-3-4, Track 1-2-3-4, Hockey 1-2, Blue and White 4. Franklin, Mass. DOROTHY GREEN 20 Dean Avenue “DOT” “Fair she is, if that mine eyes be true And true she is, as she hath proved herself.” Dorothy needs no introduction whatsoever, as she is a very popular member of our class. As class treasurer she filled the office most faithfully. “Dot” could always be seen out walking, but to say with whom would give her away. One of the beauties of the class was “Dot,” and she certainly knew how to dress. We can’t wish vou enough good luck, Dorothy. Wheaton College is where “Dot” intends to go, and may they enjoy her as much as we have.

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

MARGARET HALL Hartford Avenue Caryville, Mass. “Peggy” “Her cheery smiles and sparkling eyes Make many friends where affection lies.” What is the attraction down in Caryville? Ah! Ha! It ' s out of the bag now. Introducing Peggy Hall, the girl whose smile melts your fancy, who is happy as the day is long, full of mirth, sociable, and sympathetic. Her heart is as big as the place “Doc” always associated with it. Margaret is always taking a nap—a Belknap—also from Doc. Picture Margaret in a few years, a nurse, garbed in spotless white, bestowing upon her patients the benefit of her good cheer. We’d almost be willing to be ill if we could have Peggy for a nurse. Dramatics 1, Freshman Acquaintance Committee 4, Junior Prom. Committee 3, Social Committee for “Oskey” 4, Music 1. HELEN JACKSON Moore Avenue Franklin, Mass. “Helen” “I shall always be a lady no matter what the occasion.” Helen is another quiet member of our class, but she certainly does not lack what it takes to make a good student. The way she always had her homework prepared insured her a warm place in the hearts of her teachers. A willing and valuable worker, she contributed much to the success of the “Blue and White.” In sewing and cooking she is especially gifted, and we hope she may put these talents to advantageous use. “Oskey” Finance Committee 4. MARY JENEST 76 Dean Avenue Franklin, Mass. ‘‘Is she not passing fair?” Mary may be small, but you never failed to see her when anything was going on. An efficient editor of the “Blue and White” and a capable librarian for the Glee Club, Mary did more than her share in extra curricula activities. Did you ask who that vivacious cheer leader was? Why, Mary, of course. No wonder she always was in demand at all the dances! Such an all-round girl will surely get her full share of luck and good fortune. Marshal 2-3-4, Dramatics 3.

Caryville HENRY KIERNAN “Chappie” ‘‘And to uphold and cheer the rest, I ought to do, and did my best.” Good natured and happy-go-lucky, Henry is one of the most popular senior boys. It is a most unusual occasion when Henry can be sighted minus his cheerful smile. “Chappie’s” (that’s his nickname) favorite sport is tennis, regardless of the fact that it is his outstanding ability as a baseball player that has won him his laurels. We are not concerned about his future success, as his smile will win him much. Baseball 2-3-4, Marshal 1-2-3-4. Page Twenty-Eight
