CATHERINE ELIZABETH GRIFFIN “Caddy” “Her very frowns are fairer far, Than smiles of other maidens are.” Commercial Club (3, 4). “Caddy” is one of our quiet girls but we have discovered that she is a true friend and not always so quiet either. “Caddy” is an active member of the Commercial Club and has played class basketball for three years. She always has a cheery word and smile for every¬ one. “Caddy” plans to enter Northamp¬ ton Commercial next year and we all know she’ll be a great success.

ZETTA LILLIAN HAMILTON “Zetta” “An ounce of mirth is worth a pound of sorrow.” Zetta is known chiefly for her carefree disposition, and her ability to take things as they come.

MARSHALL FRANCIS HAMMOND “Marshall” Young fellows will be young fellows.” Although G. II. S. didn’t claim Marshall until his Senior year, everyone knows him and his ready friendship. He keeps a plentiful supply of conversation and gum in Room 16 every morning before school. Marshall has not been very active in class activities, but he is a friend to all.

Charles intends to work next year. VIRGINIA ALBERTA FREESE “Jinnie” “A rosy merry maiden she.” Field Hockey (3, 4). “Jinnie” has been with us only two years, but in that time all who know her have grown to admire her.

S. from Wil- braham Academy. Without him, we do not know how the “Exponent” Scandal sheet could have survived, all the news appearing to be in “Ernie’s” hands.

GUY MANNING GRAY “Frail” “Oh, that this too solid flesh would melt 1” Latin Club (3); Second Team Foot¬ ball (3, 4). What would we do without Guy around to humor us in some of our depressing moods!
