RALPH LEONARD BASSETT “Ralph” “Here, there and everywhere” Pro Merito; Archery Club (2, 3, 4, Treasurer 3, President 4) ; Commercial Club (3, 4, President 4); Hi-Y (4). Ralph has taken an active part in school activities, especially in the Arch¬ ery and Commercial Clubs. He may be seen almost anywhere and any place with Edith. Lots of luck, Ralph. BERNARD JAMES BEAGARIE “Bernie” ‘‘Never idle a moment,” Pro Merito (4); Exponent (2). Bernard really studies 1 The few min¬ utes there are before and after assembly find him poring over his books. Every night he takes home a great armful of books. When the girls tease him he doesn’t seem to notice. Because he will be somebody” some day, the other boys admire him secretly. Go to it, “Bernie”! HELEN ANNA BEDNARSKI “Helen” ‘‘Antony our girls she holds her place” Intramural Basketball (1, 2, 3); In¬ tramural Field Hockey (1, 2); Intra¬ mural Basketball (1); Chorus (1) ; Commercial Club (4). It isn’t hard for Helen to hold her place. The boys (of surrounding towns as well as Greenfield) seem to enjoy her company. She has already started her business career working at the Tex¬ tile Company on Powers Square. Dancing and all sports are her pastimes outside of school and working hours. Is it any wonder that her home work is done in school hours ? MITCHELL MARTELL BEHILO “Mitch” ‘‘Men of few words are the best men” Mitchell comes to school each morn¬ ing on the bus from the Green River Road. This blond boy doesn’t go in for outside activities. He is quiet but not too quiet. Whenever he is in Room 14 he is talking across the aisle, but not to a girl. He doesn’t seem to be interested in them-—yet. CATHERINE ANNA BELLOWS “Kate” ‘‘All are not saints who go to church” Intramural Basketball (1) ; Style Show (2); Chorus (2); Archery (1); Art Club (2). “Kate” likes to dance. When a new dance step comes in just ask “Kate” and she will show you how it goes. She made a perfect Jean Harlow at the Hol¬ lywood Premiere down at the Lawler Theatre last winter. With her ever in¬ teresting contributions to a class she will be greatly missed next year. VIRGINIA VERONICA BELTON “Beltie” “I like fun and I like jokes ’Bout as well as most the folks” Exponent (2, 3, 4) ; Archery (2, 3) ; Dance Committee (4) ; Property Committee (4). Our “Beltie” is the blonde who is always “on the go.” If there’s any¬ thing of any importance going on, “Beltie” is right there. “Jack’s” is a famous hang-out for her for more than one reason, and she may be found there ’most any afternoon. If a giggle is heard in the midst of silence that will be “Beltie.” Her plans for next year are undecided, but we know that she ' ll be a success in whatever field she enters. THOMAS EDWARD BERGERON “Tommy” “He that is of a merry heart hath a continual feast” Soccer (3) ; Baseball (3) ; Intra¬ mural Basketball (1, 3); Printers’ Guild (3, 4); Aviation Club (1). “Tommy” is that tall, blond boy from Room 14 who has a cheery “Hi” and a smile for everyone. He loves to fish and hunt, and in his spare time he may be found wandering the fields and woodlands in search of fish and game. “Tom” is undecided about his future. Best of luck, “Tommy.” CHARLES HERBERT BERNSTEIN “Sharlie” “My kingdom for a science book” Intramural Basketball (2); Expo¬ nent (3, 4), Circulation Manager (4); Year Book Staff (4) ; “The Family Up¬ stairs” (4) ; Stage Manager (4) ; Arch¬ ery Club (2); Debating Club (2, 3); Science Club (3, 4); Hi-Y (4). Charles, “Sharlie” to you, is the fel¬ low you see hurrying about the cor¬ ridors with a stack of books under his arm. He has done much fofVmr school and has a high standing in lifckstudies. Charles hopes to go to M. S. (A, where he will take up Chemistry. Best of luck, Charles. ELIZABETH BURRELL BERRY “Betty” “What is your duty? What the day demands” Exponent (4). The smiling “Betty” is well known in our class. While her scholastic rec¬ ords are good, she finds her best time in her activities outside of school. A happy disposition such as hers will lead her through a happy life with many companions, we are sure. JOSEPH CORNELIUS BIRCH “Joe” “Friends are known in time of need” “Joe” has been little seen or heard of during his schooling in G. H. S. Al¬ though he is quiet lie has made many friends. His favorite sport is fishing and he also is an excellent swimmer. His greatest ambition is to take life easy. “Good luck” to you, “Joe.” 13

ESTHER RUTH ALLEN “Et” “Talking is one of the fine arts” Intramural Basketball (1, 2, 3, 4); Field Hockey (2, 3) ; Cheerleader (3, 4); Archery Club (2, 3, 4). Nearly everyone knows Esther, one of the cheerleaders who worked so hard at the fair. “Et” is a good friend and is always willing to help her friends—not always her friends either. “Et” has not decided what she will do when she graduates, but we wish her the best of luck from the Class of ’35. JOSEPH JOHN ANDREWLEWICZ “Joe” ‘‘Actions speak louder than words” “Joe” is known to everyone in the school as the boy who collects the most pink slips. He does not have any in¬ terests in school. One could note that by the way he rushes out of school at 2.00 o’clock sharp, or rather at 3.00 o ' clock. Anyway, the best of luck, “Joe.” HARRY WALTER ARCHER “Harry” ‘‘Silence is golden” Harry is one of the quietest boys in the Senior class. However, he isn’t so quiet when he is out of school. Al¬ though he does not take part in the scholastic events he is a real friend. Harry frequents Shattuck Park after school. ROBERT LEROY ASHLEY, JR, “Brother” ‘‘Everyone cannot help but like this chap” Student Council (2, 3) ; Orchestra (1, 2); Band (1, 2); Junior Guid¬ ance Council; Assemblv Orchestra (2, 3, 4); Hi-Y (3, 4); Track (3, 4). “Brother,” as he is known to his best friends, has been in nearly every musical organization during his four years. None of the students will for¬ get how he used to meet “Margie” after every period. He is a good pal and a great friend. G. H. S. wishes you success in whatever you undertake. HAROLD RUSSELL BABINO “Butch” ‘‘Ah, make the most of what we yet may spend” Band (2, 3. 4); Orchestra (2, 3, 4); Assembly Orchestra (2, 3, 4) ; Senior Dance Orchestra. Who can forget how faithfully (???) “Butch” has played in Assembly Or¬ chestra for the past three years? His accomplishments have all been in the field of music, so we know what a good musician he is. “Butch” and Gordon are always seen together in the car. Take care, “Butch.” RUTH ELINORE BAKER “Ruthie” ‘‘Silence is woman’s best ornament” “Ruthie” is one of those girls who prefer to be seen and not heard. She is a great friend, and she has a big sense of humor. Her spare moments are spent writing letters to “Squirt.” Lots of luck to a “swell” person.

Never to be forgotten for her por¬ trayal of Annabelle in “The Family Up¬ stairs,” “Evy-wevy” has a smile for everyone and a wonderful sense of humor. During her four years at G. H. S. she took an active part in sports and the Exponent, VERNON ALFRED BANNACH “Pancho” “Leave us leisure to be good” Vernon is one of our quiet Seniors who couldn’t quite find time to par¬ ticipate in some of our activities. He is liked among his own circle and is well known for his laugh. BETH BARKER “Betty” “I ' ll make my joy like the small butter¬ fly whose happy heart has power to make a stone a flower” Chorus (1, 2). “Betty,” although not as well known as some of her classmates, has made many friends during her four years with us. She has not made her future plans public as yet, but we are sure that whatever she attempts will be crowned with deserved success. PAUL PETER BARTAK “Bart” “I strove with none; for none was worth my strife” Paul is one of G. H. S.’s “quieter” boys who has succeeded in the print¬ ing and woodworking departments. Paul has not yet decided what he will do next year, but G. H. S. wishes him good luck and success. 12

Well, happy landings, “Bonnie.” PAULINE JANE BORA “Janie” “There is great abilitg in knowing how to conceal great abilitg Exponent (3, 4) ; Commercial Club (4); Assistant Librarian (3).

IDA JENNIE BROOKS “Brooksie” “To know how to hide one ' s abilitg is great skill ' ’ Ida has well divided her interests between her studies and home during these last four years. A model of in¬ dustrious habits about school, still she finds time outside for the enjoyment of dancing and swimming. She enjoys above all the womanly arts of sewing and cooking at home. Our best wishes go .with her. THOMAS ARTHUR BROUGHAN “Tommy” “From harmony, from heavenly har¬ mony, This universal frame began” Football (2, 3, 4) Syncopators (4).

Ernest to some, Everett to others, and “Brownie” to all is this boy with¬ out whom our class would not be com¬ plete. lie is taking his experimental period quite seriously, making an in¬ telligent effort to find for what he is best suited. However, he doesn’t al¬ low his deep thoughts to spoil his over¬ whelming sense of humor, which makes “Brownie” a favorite. Best wishes for his future.
