20 THE EXPONENT 46—ELLA MARY LYNCH “Unthinking, idle, wild, and young, I’ve laughed and danced and talked and sung.” Ella has studied ( ?) and talked her way along through high school, not paying much attention to anything else except an occasional suitor. However, as a result of her excessive talking she won the first prize in the Junior Speaking Contest. In the Senior Good English play she appeared in her grandmother’s shawl and bonnet to the amusement of all. Ella intends to go to Simmons but whether or not she can persuade her teachers to give her the necessary high marks remains to be seen. 47—FRED MERRILL MAGOON “If the trumpet gave an uncertain sound.” Fred came to G. H. S. with the rest of us and has been popular and prominent in school and class affairs. Fred was some kind of a manager for an athletic team but I guess he wasn’t just the kind Ump liked so he resigned. He has been very prominent on class debating teams, on the Junior inter-class team, and was President of the Gamma chapter of the Agora, the Senior debating club, during the first part of the Senior year. Fred took part in the Junior Prize Speaking contest and received Honorable Mention. As Mr. Dent in the Senior play, he scored another success. 48—PAUL MAZUZAN “And when a lady is in the case you know all other things give place.” Though a little large around the waist, Paul is some speed artist with the ladies. His favorite sport is walking to a certain house on the Montague City road and back again. Paul is a good swimmer and though rather uninterested in athletics has proved himself a good tennis player. He will increase the weight at Norwich next fall by about one hun¬ dred and seventy pounds. 49—EDWARD DAVIS McLAUGHLIN “Ah, there are no children any longer!” “Eddie” has spent a good part of the four years studying, but has also found time to play in athletics, being on the varsity baseball team three years and on the football team one year. He is a member of the Pro-Merito Society and the French Club, and did good work as alternate in the Senior-Junior debate. Eddie doesn’t know just where he’ll go but Mount Hermon is near Northfield (?). 50— GERTRUDE STONE MILLER “One heart’s enough for me-” “Gert” says she hasn’t done much. Oh no! She has won prizes for speed in typewriting, her award for the highest speed being for 68 words per minute. She is Secre¬ tary of the Senior Class, a member of the Pro-Merito Society and our Salutatorian. She says she is planning to work in a doctor’s office, but we have our doubts. It looks as if she had her “boss” for life already picked out. 51— STUART HORACE NICHOLS “O bed, O bed, delicious bed, That heaven upon earth. To the weary head.” If all Westerners are like “Stu” it is no wonder that they are so speedy and up to date. “Stu” is full of “pep” and vigor. When any mischief is done “Stu” is either di¬ rectly of indirectly to blame. Stu’s pastime is radio. For more than three years, now, he has entertained his friends with his apparatus. At present he is chief operator and salesman in the Radio Department of Allen and Wood¬ worth’s Music Store. After graduation, he will follow his studies at some Radio or Electrical School. 52— THOMAS LATHROP NIMS “Every tub must stand upon its bottom” Tom was held down about everything except “nines” since he has been in G. H. S. Among his offices have been those of assistant manager of the Exponent, president of the class both Junior and Senior years, chocolate vender, mem¬ ber of the varsity football team for three years and many minor positions which space forbids us to enumerate. Tom is going to Colgate if he can get in. 53— ELIZA MARGARET NOYES “Oh, Romeo, Romeo! wherefore art thou Romeo?” Leila has has been so busy studying in order to get into M. A. C. that she has not had time to enter into class affairs but she has proved herself a debater. She was a staunch upholder of the Junior-Senior debate and her superior power there helped win the cup. Leila says, “M. A. C. is a dandy place.” We all wonder why! Here’s good luck to your future at M. A. C.! 54—PHILIP JOHN O’HARA “I ne’er could any lustre see. In eyes that would not look on me. I ne’er saw nectar on a lip. But where my own did hope to sip.” “Phlop” is the nearest approach to Rudolph Valentino in “The Sheik” that we have—Oh those eyes! And how he can dance, to say nothing of the way he can rattle the ivories. Up to the present he has led a gay wild life, but now—oh now—oh, marvel of marvels, he is reforming. But how could he do otherwise with the inspiration of those sweet hazel eyes? For the last four years, Phlop’s voice has made more noise than all the rest of the Boys’ Glee Club combined, and his satirical wit in debates is unex¬ celled. As Mr. Blimboe in the Senior play, he gave a very natural performance. Phlop doesn’t believe in planning ahead. 55— LILLIAN GERTRUDE OSGOOD “She is one with whom I can associate my choicest thoughts.” Lillian is the little girl with those dark, shining eyes. She lives way down on Newton Street and that walk every morning is responsible for those bright eyes. Of course, we’re not saying what evening walks do to them. Lillian is a member of the Pro-Merito Society, a fact which it is not hard to believe when we hear her recite, especially in history and commercial law. She is undecided as to what she will do after graduation but we think that some business school will claim her. 56— MILDRED ESTHER PHILLIPS “It is gone, but not forgotten.” “Mildred” loves the piano and tries to play. We wish you luck as a musician, Mildred. She goes to the Peter Bent Brigham training school for nurses next year. As she is not going until January she is going to return to G. H. S. for a P. G. until then. Keep on, “Mill,” you will make a good nurse. 57—RUTH EVELYN PUTNAM “All I want is a bit of advice, ’Cause I want to be naughty and still be nice.” Ruth, or Putty, is another of the old school. She has always been popular and well liked by everyone. We hear that she is also popular at Amherst Aggie. She was on the War Activities Committee of the S. A. S. in her Fresh¬ man year and on the Girls’ Basket Ball Team in her second, third, and fourth years. She is Literary Editor of the Ex¬ ponent, is on the Senior Committee on invitations, on the Soccer Team, Secretary of the French Club and a member of the Radio Club. Ruth intends to attend Amherst Aggie next year. 58—MADELENE FIELD ROBERTS “Sweet and seemly.” Madelene is one of the vivacious girls of our class. Full of pep and versatility, she has kept us in the best of spirits for four years. She is some swimmer and is often seen taking a bunch in “Pa’s car” over to Red Rock or Green Pond. Her most popular indoor sport is jazzing the piano, a thing she does quite capably. Madelene intends to go to Framingham Normal after graduation. 59—LINWOOD NICHOLS SAMSON “Love me, love my dog.” “Lin” and his dog are absolutely inseparable. It is a case of “Mary had a little lamb” for everywhere that Samp goes his dog is sure to follow. He has managed the basketball team this year. Owing to the sad ending of a romance in his youth he has put all his time on his studies during high school and is only just learning to dance. His future occupation is unknown. 60—VERA MAE SCOTT “Those who waste time in worry meet misfortune more than half way by anticipating her movements.” Vera says she has never done anything, but we know differently or she wouldn’t be graduating. She seems to think she is not good for anything, but we can assure her of the contrary, and I am sure a ‘certain’ fellow in another city could also. She is planning either to take up office work or attend some normal school.
