“Dee” GIANNETTA, GRACE “G racie” Grace has the common teen-age love of sports, movies, and clothes. She would like to obtain a posi- tion as a typist after graduation and we know she’ll succeed. GLECKLER, CALVIN “Tad” Fire Squad. “Tad” is the fellow that you never hear much from. Still waters run deep, though, and when it comes to knowing what you are talking about, you can count on Gleckler. GOGAN, DOLORES Volleyball; J. V. Cheerleader 3; Glee Club. Neat as a pin and exceptionally nice, Dolores made a very attrac- tive J. V. Cheerleader in her Junior year. “Dee” enjoys sports, dancing, and drawing; her artis- tic ability to imagine the styles of 1957 will be wasted when she ob- tains a secretarial position. GOTTLIEB, CLAIRE Basketball; Hockey; Tennis; Vol- leyball. This dark-haired gal has become a favorite among the Seniors. Claire will surely succeed as a singer, for she possesses a lovely voice. Her great love for dancing and skating makes her a charming person and a gay companion. GREIG, WILLIAM “Bill” Bill is known throughout school for his ability to appear nonchal- ant despite all sorts of trying sit- uations. He can invariably be seen either riding on his pal’s motor- cycle or diligently studying his chemistry. (?) (?) GRIES, JEANNE “Jeannie” “Comet” Yearbook Staff; Honor Roll; Hall Cop. Jeannie, a lovely Senior, has an interest in skating, bowling, and sports in general—as one may see by reading her Senior essay. Voted “Mi 3 Arnold Constable” this spring, Jeannie will be remember- ed for her sweet disposition and her work on the yearbook pro- phecy.

All this adds up to a fun-loving but literary mind. FEOEHLICH, VIRGINIA “Jinny” Jinny, possessing the rare and ad- mired quality of tranquillity, loves winter and music. This fun-lov- ing gal will undoubtedly succeed as a poised and trusted secretary while fulfilling her ambition to travel. GELLMAN, THELMA “Thel” Basketball; Hockey; Honor Roll 1, 2; Musical Comedy. Dancing, dark eyes, humorous smile, and vivid personality are Thel s characteristics. With her excellent taste concerning Junior Deb clothes, she will be sure to be a success as a buyer after gra- duation from college.
