Her plans for next year are centered around business school un preparation for secretarial work. So Betty will be en- rolling along with the other gurls to learn the flner points of being a success in the business world. Now her spare time is spent un donning dancung slippers for on evenung's diversion, taking bathing suut, towel, and bathing cap down to the beach for a swim, and serving the tennis ball in the courts. Someday, Betty hopes to be walking down that fateful middle aisle, but un the meantime she's busy studying her music so that she may real- ize her ambition of playing really well, ANTONETTA ANNESSI l Lathrop Place, Boston Sweet and Lovely Antonette us now taking the comnuercuol course and next ycar will fund her stepping out from her preparatory years here to take her place un the world of business, where her abul- utues will be donated to some lucky em- ployer. One of Antonette's happler mo- ments is when she switches on the raduo and hears the familiar and dulcet tones of Oh, But I Do coming over the our waves to ultimately reach her apprecia- tive ears. When she usn't listening to thus favorite, she tunes into the current baseball game and mentally throws pop bottles at the umpire. During the fall she takes time out to watch the teams scatter over the gridiron un hope of a touchdown, for Antonette's sake. She also likes to go dancing and swimming, and her ambition us to travel someday. Acruvurizs Mnrchondusmq cuun 4 INES ANZALONE 732 Bennington Street, East Boston Have you ever been fire warden of your neighborhood? Well, Ines has! A lot of her time was spent in keeping her neighborhood seosonably free from fires and other luke hazards. But that usn't surprising, because when it comes to or- ganization and leadershup, she's the gal you're looking for. All this should add to her efficuency as a secretory which she someday hopes to be, for she's been busily working away un the course through a maze of typewruters and short- hand pads, Wherever there are ravuolus, there you will fund Ines because thot's her favorite dish and she spends many happy hours seated before a heaping dish watching the supply slowly dimrnush In udle hours she may be found cheer- leading for her local baseball team, bowl- ung, keeping tabs on baseball, and listen- ung to Glenn Miller records. LOUISE ARDOLINU 37 North Margin Street, Boston Behind thus attractive, well dressed ex- terior, we fund one of the more talented members of our senior class. Her low, thraaty voice, which has already been heard on the radio, is her outstandung talent, and we can still remember receuv- ing the benefit of her sultry voice during various Christmas parties we had here. Eventually Sister would like to become a vocalist, a fact which pleases those of us who know her, for indeed ut would give us the greatest of pleasure to once again hear her singing, Sister with the voice so well adapted to singing the la- test popular songs! Her more immediate plans for next ear are to work at the Motor Vehicle guildung. A popular ac- tive gal, Sister does other things beside singing, for instance bowling, dancing, skating, and going to football games ACTIVITIES Glee Club 4. EMILY M. AZAR 344 Shawmut Avenue, Boston Someday we may be looking through a newspaper and will fund the familiar face of Emmy, then a well-known singer with a bug name band, and we can say We knew her when ---- All this will be simply a result of her wonderful voice and good looks. She graduated from the commercial course un Girls' High, we can say, and then, as now, she enioys swimming, skating, even pedals around on her little bicycle for awhile, takes hold of the oars for a more strenuous day out on the bounding main, then lunes up the golf ball on the tee and takes a terrufuc swung to send the pull flying over the green, Lookung a luttle further into the future, we may see her keeping house for the man of her dreams We shall al- ways remcmber Emmy tor her bright smile and happy disposition, tar she's o girl who's fun to know, nice to be with Activuruss one-C Club 1, 2, 3 lll'1I,l-INIC HARRY 49 Bayswater Street, Boston Who can forget that riotous monologue Helene delivered at the Junior Party? Once seeung her perform, no one can doubt Helene's acting abuluty, although she will tell you it is only a result of the tireless efforts of her elocutuon teacher, Elocutuon teacher or no, Helene kept her class laughing heartily, as she gave her amusing rendition of the different stages of married lute via the breakfast table scene She plans to go to California and further her education, returning East to become either o dramatic teacher or en- ter unto a stage career, and Helene-'s time shauIdn't be wasted in either one of them, for she has already taken the furst steps to realizing her dream, and may time fund her performing on other stages and keeping her future audiences amused as well as she did here. Our fu- ture Helen Hayes enioys bike-riding, ten- nis, and going to the theater CATIIERINE HARSAMIAN I2 Bradford Street, Boston Kitty us planning to enter the Massa- chusetts College of Pharmacy, and the little rnrss with the rumpled hair and clean white smock who fulls out your pre- scriptions will be none other than Kitty, busily translating the doctor's writings unto bottles of medicine. An active mem- ber of our class, she started early by being assistant director of the Gl-1.5. Follies un her sophomore year, and then went on to become the treasurer of the Biolagy Club. She Iukes introductions to fictitious characters via the pages of books, making' the rounds of Boston stores in searc of new clothes, dancing, bike-rudung, and most of all, enioyung her- self.

NURMA HARTALINI I2 Parmenter Street, Boston I would like very much to act. The words are auuetly spoken, and they come from a small, dark-eyed gurl known as Slum. Ever since she can remember, Slum has loved to act and, along with travel, ut has always been her ambition. Al- though she IS planning to go to work upon graduation from the commercial course, someday she hopes to be doing the things she likes best, acting. She is an all round lover of sports, and I Can't Begin To Tell You us the song that moves her. Here's hoping that pe. tute luttle Slum ets her wush, and that furst-nrghters wig have the opportunity of applaudung her hustruonuc abilities gg she takes her curtoun call.

DORIS ALLUKIAN 639 Tremont Street, B0ston Doris is a bright-eyed young lady who is strikingly di ferent, and we believe ,P Y .4 she holds the distinction of being the only girl here who composes oriental ond modern dances. We haven't had the pleasure of watching Doris's proficiency in this field, but maybe some day we'l have the pleasure of watching Doris per- form to the tinking of gamelan bells or rhaps avidly following Martha Gra- li:zm's teachings in the modern dance. Then too, Doris knows an Armenian dance, which she does well. She is outwardly quiet, likes to read, is deeply religious, and would be per- fectly content to live in o cottage on a high cliff overlooking the ocean, and listening to the poun ing and roaring of the surf. Her more immediate plans, how- ever, are to go to work when she grad- uates. ACTIVITIES: Honor Roll I, 2, 3, 4, FRANCES AMBHOSE I5 Chase Street, Dorchester As Frannie wants to become a com- mercial artist, she will be among the ranks of the girls who will attend Sim- mons College next year, where she will take a course in journalism. Frannie's the kind of a conscientious girl who will put in the necessary amount of work and time to achieve her aim, much as she did here, and in Frannie the world of iournalism gains a real addition. To live up to her favorite pastime, eating, she dreams up various gastronomical de- lights which give her poor family almost chronic indigestion. When not thus em- ployed, she is either swimming, roller skating, bicycling, or sticking her nose between the covers of a book. She makes most of her clothes, and we think that this is the secret of her very neat American Girl look. PS. She's really a good cook!

MARY AMELCHUCK 48 Harvest Street, Dorchester Mary is a future woman in white, whose blonde fairness will be harmoniz- ing with a white uniform after she com- pletes her nurses training, and in truth she has always had a passion for nur- sing. A firm believer in the theory that practice makes perfect, she's already spent quite a bit of time by doing volun- teer work at the Boston City Hospital to prepare her for her future work. Mary is one girl who can be sure she's chosen well and wisely, since she's already had some kind of experience in her field. In the meantime, she's enjoying herself by reading, roller skating, and dancing, fi- nally tops these off with sitting excitedly on the edge of her seat as the local puck-chasers tear up the ice in their efforts to please Mary by scoring a goal. ACTIVITIES' Pre-driving Club 3, Year- book Staff 4. ANGELIKI ANAGNOS 495 Tremont Street, Boston Angie's ambition is to work on a news- paper, even as a copy girl! She will be- come a good iournaist, having already won honorable mention in the Advertis- ing Contest Essay and first prize in the Book Week Contest. She loves good mu- sic, bowling, reading, and swimming, keeping busy singing in her church choir and teaching Sunday School. Winner of Most Popu ar and Best Personality titles in her sophomore and junior years, Angie is an outstanding member of her class with her clear mind and soft smile. Next year will find her in California vis- iting relatives and soaking in sunshine.

She has an ardent admiration of Al, spends most of her time listening to Al Jolson's records, then repeats them with her own Belisle version for the entertainment of her classmates. Her dislike ot racial pre- Iudice adds to our admiration of her, tor Al vehemently stands firm on the issue of racial equality. The desire in Al's life IS to became a private secretary and go to China, but right now while she's still at home she enjoys dancing, singing and having fun.

The dark' haired girl is a lot of fun, and who can forget the amusing experience she gave us in the commercial club, of how not to apply for a Iob?
