MISS MARION E. HOLMES English That flashing smile and that red hair. Wow! Aside from that, Miss Holmes is as fine an English teacher as one could ever hope to have. Her knowledge of the sub¬ ject and her ready wit made her classes brighter than most English classes are. She is the friend of all stu¬ dents whether they are in her class or not. Few high schools are blessed with a teacher of her fine ability and pleasant nature. MR. GEORGE IT. COERERT Boys ' Phys. Director We were very pleased to hear that “Coach Colbert” was once again to be a member of our faculty. Although he has been with us only a short while we have begun to appreciate his sense of humor. Mr. Colbert has got to know most of us, especially the boys. The girls have envied the boys for having him in class. MR. HENRI C. BEANE Gov ' t. We can’t begin to thank Mr. Beane for his fatherly advice in each of our four years. He has certainly proved himself a wonderful class advisor and friend to all. Mr. Beane’s government classes were looked forward to by all the students. We all know that through Mr. Beane’s hard work he produced one of our finest basketball teams. We certainly are going to miss you, Mr. Beane. Thanks loads for four swell years! f ranklin, Mass.

MR. CHARLES F. FRAZER In February of this year, Mr. Frazer, or “Doc” as he was familiarly known to everyone, reached the retire¬ ment age under state law and left the high school faculty. “Doc,” one of the most beloved of all high school teachers, was given a testimonial by the teachers prior to his departure. As Mr. Doherty said at that time, “Doc” will always be with us and that’s the way we feel about it too. MR. JOHN F. RODGERS Manual Training, Mechanical Drawing Everybody’s friend and really a fine teacher. This describes Mr. Rodgers as well as any phrase can. His humor brightens his classes, and his knowledge makes them interesting. One exits from his classes feeling sat¬ isfied that he has learned something. We’re sure that all his future students will like him as much as his former ones did and present ones do. MISS ALICE L. REANE Gov ' t., Math. We can honestly say that “Beanie” is everyone’s friend. She has taken an interest in all our activities and has always been willing to help in any way. We thank her for the careful instructing of all our teams. We have enjoyed taking part in sports. The exhibition put on by “Beanie” was a credit not only to herself but to the school. Page Ten Franklin, Mass.

MR. J. MURRAY STEVENS Sub-Master, Chemistry, Physics Those who were fortunate in having Mr. Stevens really feel that their classes were worthwhile. His ability in putting something across was a gain to the student. We thank Mr. Stevens for entertaining at our various events with his orchestra. MR. GORDON FITZPATRICK Algebra I, II, III, Geometry, Trig., Solid Following a fine record of achievement in the U. S. Navy, Mr. Fitzpatrick returned to resume his teaching duties. Although we have not had his services long, we have come to like and respect him because of his quiet manners and willingness to aid the student. He has spent many hours after school instructing pupils along the way to better understanding and better grades. He is a friend to us all. MISS PALMA DeBAGGIS Latin, English, Italian Charming, patient and lots of fun. All of the class of “46” will surely remember Miss DeBaggis whether we had her in Latin, Italian, or English or even just knew her. When bleary eyed and sleepy, one rounded the corner by Room 210, early in the morning, her cheery smile made us wake up and smile right back. We can’t express our full appreciation in words, but anyway Miss DeBaggis, thanks! Page Twelve Franklin, Mass.
