KATHERINE ELIZABETH CONLEY “Betty” Gregg ' Penmanship Award (3); Intramural basketball (2); Exponent (2); Guidance Council (3); Usher at commencement (3). “Betty” is what is whole-heartedly termed a “grand kid.” She is possessed of the finest of personalities and the ability to make friends, of which she has many. She is an ardent sports fan and is particularly interested in football, basketball and redheads. Betty” can be relied on at all times to do her part by contributing her time, efforts, or what-have-you, to the task at hand. ELIZABETH MYRA COTTON “Betty” Intramural basketball (2). “Betty” is a dark-eyed, good natured girl from Room 15. She always has a sweet smile for everyone and 2:00 o’clock finds her hard at work at her studies in her home room. She plans to go in training as a nurse after she graduates. We know “Betty” will make a very pretty as well as efficient nurse. JULIA ELIZABETH COUTURE “Babe” Soccer (2); Intramural basketball (2, 3); Dramatic Club (3); Art Club (4). Julia’s quiet ways conceal her many interests. She has become best known around school by her work as office girl, delivering those looked-for pink slips. Her low voice and blonde hair are her out¬ standing characteristics. ARLINE MAE COWDREY “Poochie” Intramural basketball (2, 3, 4); Winter Concert (2, 3); Glee Club (2); Delta Sigma Rho (2); Student Council (2). This peppy Senior is so full of fun that she just cant stay still. We’ve never seen her serious even during the “Chem midyears, and high school will seem dreary with Poochie gone. She plans to go in training in New 5 ork. Were sure that everyone she comes in contact with will like her as well as we do. WILLIAM PETER CERAUSKIS “Willie” “Willie” is another member in our league of shyer boys, but again is the general favorite of many. It seems that, through observation, “Willie” is partial to dark-eyed damsels who enter¬ tain him in his home room. ALMA JEAN CHAFFEE “Al” Year Book Staff (4); Guidance Council (4); “Campus Capers” (4); “Co-ed’s Night Out” (3); Winter Concert (3, 4); Glee Club (3. 4). “Al has not been with us all through school, but joined us in her Junior year.

HARRY ANDY COATES, JR. “Red” Commercial Club (4). “Red,” although a trifle on the quiet side, is known and liked by many. Although not an actual participant in them, he is a great sports enthusiast and follows the games with a rare knowl¬ edge and interest. He is a member of the Commercial course and is making a fine showing in his various studies. MICHAEL ANGELO COCCO “Cocco Kid” Art Club (4). Cocco may be classed as one of our shyer students, but we do not know whether or not it is this trait which makes him so popular with the lower classmen. Nevertheless, he is not far behind many of the Don Juans of the Senior class. “Mike” is also interested in sports, especially boxing, and has been in the ring with many an opponent. Twenty-one

WILLIAM JOSEPH CARROLL ‘■Bill” Intramural basketball (2, 3, 4); Hockey (4); Track (4). Whiz! That must be “Bill” riding by in his Buick. This well-known car always manages to take him where the most fun is to be had. Some people have the mistaken idea that he’s quiet. However, we all certainly do agree on the fact that he flashes one of the best-known grins in G. H. S. Accompanied by the rest of his “gang,” he has enlivened many a school dance and entertainment. RUTH EILEEN CASEY “Ruthy” Pro Merito (4); Exponent (4); Year Book Staff (4); “Co-eds ' Night Out” (3); “Campus Capers” (4); Alpha Beta Pi (3,4); Glee Club (3, 4); Art Club (3). “Ruthy” is one of our shyest and sweetest classmates. Also, she’s acquired a kind of fame in G. H. S. for her disposition, which always seems to be just a little bit sweeter than anyone else’s. Often seen with her pal “Winnie,” she has been one of our best contributors to “The Exponent.” G. H. S. will miss her smile. EARL JOSEPH CASH “Monk” Football (3); Intramural basketball (3, 4). Of all our square-shouldered athletes who roar on the field amid the noise and shouts of the gang, “Monk” Cash is one of the best known. By this we mean that he, at one time or another, dining his high school career, played football. But. “Monk” is also interested in other sports, such as basketball. He is one of these shy, reserved persons, who, although far from spectacular, are genuinely liked by all.

She is what is commonly called a “good mixer,” and because of this particular trait is tremendously popular with all members of her class. She is interested in music and a participant in all musical festivities. She is also a sports enthusiast, and no game is complete without “Irie’s” lusty yelling behind the lines. SHIRLEY ROBERTA CAMPBELL “Soup” Exponent (4); Year Book Staff (4); Archery (2,3); Alpha Beta Pi (4). Shirley’s ability to talk and her lively interest in everything she undertakes have helped her to become a very popular Senior. Her chief interests are Chemistry and Alpha Beta Pi, and she spends much time on each. NORMAN BERTRAM CAREY “Hank” Basketball (2, 3); Baseball (3); Hi-Y (4). Crash! Bang! Boom! Here comes “Hank,” who’s just a rough and ready hunter at heart. He’s quite a well-known figure up around North Parish and the Grange. Indeed, he rates a good deal of credit both on the G. H. S. and on the North Parish basketball floors. G. H. S. will miss his ever-ready smile. GEORGE WILLIAM CARON “Georgie” Home Room Collector (2); Stamp Club (4 President). George is a typical outdoor man and may also be called exceedingly shy. Most of us remember him as the usher who works at the “Vic.” He is well-known among his friends as a good pal and a grand friend. We are indebted to him for his quiet cooperation and industry. GERTRUDE ETHEL CARPENTER “Gerty” Intramural basketball (2, 3, 4). “Gerty” is a well-known “tomboy” of our class and is recog¬ nized by her amicable and jovial manner. A hearty hail and a broad smile also reveal her presence. If “Gerty” is around accompanied by her usual wisecracks, there is never a dull moment. Always seen with her pal, Fay, she has helped enliven many G. H. S. classes. Twenty

The Class of ’38 wishes you good luck, “Kay.” MERLE LESLIE CRANSON “Merle” Merle hasn ' t had much of a chance to get into the social side of Greenfield High, as he came to us at the first of the Senior year from Arms Academy. He is very pleasant and always has a smile ready for use. We wish we might have known you longer, Merle. DONALD RAYMOND CROMACK, JR. “ Donnie” Tennis (3, 4 Captain); Intramural basketball (4). Although Donald has not been very active in extra-curricular activities, he has been very active in everything else. The only thing he takes seriously is his French, and you are just out of luck if you want to talk to him and don’t know French.
