Maurice John Dwyer “ Maurie Science Clul) (1), (2), (3), (4), President (4). Secretary (2); Hi-Y (3), (4); Student Council (3), (4), Secretary (3); Senior Dance Committee; Year Hook Staff; Pro Merito. “Maurice Dwyer (Ions list of letters) now takes Edison’s place in the laboratory!” This is what you will be seeing in the newspapers not many years from now. Maurice is the young fellow who spends most of his time studying, some of the rest in the chemistry “lab,” and the rest of it at Hi-Y meetings or dancing school. Not only a scientist, but a man learned in the fine arts is Mr. Dwyer, for, ssh! We know he took a few violin lessons once. “Maurice” plans to go to Yale next year to take up some branch of chemistry. Up an’ atom, Maurice! Doris Ellis “Pat Class Basketball (1), (2), (3). (4); Field Hockey (3), (4); Baseball (3), (4); S. A. S. Collector (2); Vice-President (2); Christmas Story prize (2); Student Council (2), (4); (llee Club (1), (2), (3); French Club (3); “Gypsy Rover”; “Pirate’s Daughter”; Senior Dance Committee; Year Book; Pro Merito. One looks with amazement at the list of Doris’ achievements, but only her classmates can realize the patient courage which was necessary to accomplish these. Doris is the most generous, most helpful, and kindest member of our class. We needed her supreme judgment and thought to pull us through our many perplexing problems. Doris has attended many of our social functions and has taken a great interest in athletics. She is planning to attend Elmira College next year, and the best wishes of 1930 will accompany her there. Mary Ann Fail la Camera Club (4). No —Mary says she hasn’t done a thing outside of studying, during her four years with us — has not even acquired a nickname! But she is mistaken. Haven t we always looked at her clothes to get an idea as to what a well dressed girl should wear. ' 1 Marys pleasing personality has won her many friends, and we hope that this same personality will make her future bright and rosy. Irma Theresa Fitzgerald I cm Pro Merito. After mid-year “exams,” Irma entered G.H.S., all the way from Howard, So. Dakota. Her ready smile and pleasing disposition have won her many friends. Her imitations ot various notable persons are known, because she imitates a different one every time. Al¬ though her school career in G. H. S. has been short, this high school will be proud to have her for its foster daughter. Irma plans to continue her studies in some higher school, but she has. as yet, not decided which school this will be. Since she has dis¬ tinguished herself as a basketball player, it seems as if she would be an asset to an school. Mary Anna Flavin Glee Club (1), (2); Spanish Club (2), (3); Dramatic Club (2); Commercial Club (2), (3). Mary is the little Irish girl, whose good nature, gayety. and smile brighten the halls of G H S. Versatile, I’ll say. She is tuneful, — ask the Glee Club. She is a linguist,— ask the Spanish Club. She is practical — look at her typewriting and shorthand awards. Lately ambition called her, for now she is working outside of school hours. ith such a personality, we can’t picture Mary as being anything but a success. Good luck, Mary. 99

Mary Emma Cummings Red” (Hop Club (1), (2). (3), (4); Spanish Club (2); “Pirate’s Daughter”; The Gypsy Rover”; “Pinafore”; Pro Merito. Although Mary lias not had much to say, she has not wasted her four years, as her scholastic record shows. She has been a faithful member of the Glee Club during her high-school days. Each year she has played the role of one of those snappy chorus girls. We hear that she has graced the stage at North Parish Church in many a play. W ho knows? Mary may be a budding actress who will sometime rival Mary Pickford in fame. She is undecided as to her future, but we know that she will make good in whatever she attempts. Robert Edward Dauphinais “Bob” Baseball (1), (2), (3). (4), Captain (4); Class Treasurer (2); Assistant Treasurer, (3); Vice-President (4); Year Book (4); Senior Play Committee (4). Bob, whose permanent wave and pleasant smile have made him many friends, in G. H. S. comes to us each morning from Millers Falls. His popularity is shown by the fact that he was elected Treasurer of his class in his second year, Assistant Treasurer in his Junior year, and Vice-President in his Senior year. In baseball. Bob has been a star for four years and he was honored with the captaincy this year. Bob is planning to work a year before going to school, but we know that he will make a success of whatever he undertakes. Mildred Elizabeth Delano Dramatic Club (3), (4); French Club (2); Pro Merito. Mildred is our friendly, talkative, little classmate. Her name always appears on the honor roll. We know that she is bound to succeed with all her ambition. She is still undecided about next year. Leo Nicholas Derry Commercial Club (1). (2). (3); Glee Club (2), (3). (4); Dramatic Club (2), (3). (4); Band (1), (2), (3). (4); High School Orchestra (1-4); Assembly Orchestra (2-4); “Belle of Barcelona”; Ass’t Treasurer, (1), (2); Manager, “Champion” ’30 Track Team. Leo. the “lemon and lime” boy, is very popular both with the fair and “otherwise sex. The Orchestra would be lost without his violin and the Dramatic Club would dis¬ band were he not there. Leo, as manager of the crack ’30 Track Team, led his school to victory in the Track Meet. He has decided to spread lus wings, for he enters the 1 . C. Ryan Flying School, San Diego, California, this fall. Mary Gertrude Donovan Dolly Spanish Club (1), (2); Commercial Club (3); Secretary (1). “Dolly” has won many awards in typewriting, which is a subject she likes because there is no homework. “Dolly s tardiness has become proverbial, but no one minds that little thing because she overcomes the most stubborn person with her twinkling eyes and cheery grin. By grinning “Dolly” has become a most likable girl. Her hosts of friends have ever admired her. because she is so even-tempered. Nothing seems to be able to banish that smile from her face. May the world always return her smile!

Henry Herbert Franklin Hi-Y (4); Science Club (2), (3). (4); French Club (3); Biology Club (2), (3); Ass’t Baseball Manager (3); Pro Merito. Anyone who has the blues should consult Henry Franklin for he is the champion dispeller of these sad and infamous peace-disturbers. It would keep you in fits all day long to see him go through his antics and tell you his jokes. Henry is a social lion, too, and is always going to places and doing things. He plans to go to Worcester Tech next year to take up some branch of Chemistry. Who knows but what he might end up as a bigger and better Fred Stone? But whatever he docs we hope he comes through. Chester Leroy French Basketball (4); Track (4). “Chet” was a recluse until his last year in school, when he burst forth in all his glory to become a social lion, a basketball player, a member of Hi-Y, and a member of the Senior Class. We don’t know, but we think those frequent trips to Bernardston had something to do with it. Chester has done well all through school, and he is liked by everyone who knows him. A bit undecided about next year, he is toeing the mark, raring to go, but he doesn’t know where to go. We know though, that whatever he does, he will show the good training we give them in G. H. S. Ruth Amelia Galusha Spanish Club, President (3); Awards in typewriting; Pro Merito. Ruth is the girl we all have seen in the office. For some time during her afternoons she has been helping Miss Summers. Each morning she comes to us from beyond Rocky Mountain with her smile and shy, “hello!” Ruth is interested in the great commercial world and has received not a few honors for her good work in high school. She intends to carry on next year in Northampton Commercial College. Julius Lawrence Gould ' Julie ' ' Journalism (4); Senior Play; Hi-Y (3), (4); Science Club (3), (4); Public Speaking Contest (3) (First Prize); Senior Dance Committee; Year Book Staff; Pro Merito. Will wonders never cease? The wonder is that Greenfield High School should be lucky enough to have such a witty, brilliant example of modern youth as Julius. What would we have done in our morning assemblies if we had not had Julius to impart his noble, wholesome advice? There never could be another quite like Julius, because we know that his sayings and actions are original. He has always been at hand to decorate the gym for the dances! As some people are considered the “life of the party, so Julie” may be thought of as the “life of G. H. S.” “Dot Doris is a person who is always glad to help when she can. She has worked steadily for the past six years in Woolworth’s. Her future is undecided, but we know that she will succeed in her chosen work just as she has succeeded as a clerk. Best of luck, Doris. Doris Emma Gove Commercial Club (3).
