12 THE TATLER Peter Genglia Peter G., a smiling lad, In long pants he’s always clad. At his desk he sits all day And fools his time away. Gilbert Gibney Gilbert is so tall an d thin In a race would surely win. He is also our class shiek, We wonder if this name he’ll alw ' ays keep. Ira Goldstein Ira Goldstein of 8A Will be a scientist some day; Then he’ll study all the stars, And find if people live on Mars. Louis Gucwa Diligent little Louis with golden hair. Every day seems to have many a care. I think he’s the soberest boy in town. He never laughs, yet nothing weighs him down. Edward Gwozdz Edward Gwozdz is a boy And teachers he does never annoy. In History he’s alright But in Arithmetic, my, but he’s bright! Allan Handy Look! Here comes Allan Handy, At picture drawing he’s a dandy; An artist he’s sure to make. And all the prizes will he take. Marian Hartley Always on the roll of honor. You will see Marian’s name; She’ll have badges pinned upon her, ’Cause she’s a girl of fame. Roy Jandreau Roy a good monitor makes For on the job he is never late. He knows his work from beginning to end. And those who do wrong to the office he sends. Robert Kelly Robert Kelly is a dark-haired boy And the girls he does annoy. If you knew you’d say the same So don’t give me all the blame. Bernice Kiablik Our Bernice is tall and slim. And comes to school with quite a grin; Into high school she will go. And you can bet she won’t be slow. Roy King Roy is looking for a remedy To drive away Arithmetic, his enemy. To solve this he surely does try. We hope he will get it by and by. Joseph Kita Joseph is a quiet boy Who has light yellow hair, He never breaks the school’s rules And everywhere acts just as he should. Lawrence Knight Now here comes Lawrence so gay. With a grin that never goes away — He’d rather talk with the girls all day Than either work or play. Edmund Kososki Sing a song on the wireless, A pocket full of tools; Edmund would put up a radio In all our Enfield Schools. Stanley Koziaro Stanley Koziaro is a very fine lad Who wears a sweater, just the fad. But wffien it comes to playing ball. This fine lad is not there at all. George Krause George Krause is a radio fan. If you can’t fix yours Georgie can; As a mechanic he is very smart. And if you were a girl he’d break your heart. Frances Kryzs Next meet Miss Frances K., Always so sunny and gay; Frances is very lithe and airy. And is very good in the part of a fairy. Cecelia Lajoie Cecelia is quite smart in spelling. But when it comes. to History, I’m not telling; But don’t you think she isn’t bright ’Cause I tell you she’s alright.

THE TATLER 1 1 Dorothy Clarkin Here comes Dorothy so blithe and gay, She’s the happiest lassie of the day; If on Dorothy for a duty you call, You’ll see she is most willing of all. Patricia Collins Patricia Collins is a lass Who doesn’t work all day in class. For to everyone once in a while Patricia will give a smile. Mary Connor Look at Mary Connor, Her name’s on the roll of honor; She’s exempt in every test. Because she always does her best. Kenneth Cordner Kenneth, a good room president, makes The Golden Rule he never breaks; His good manners we all admire. More boys like you we would desire. Doris Cote Doris although so small. Is very sociable with us all; She comes to school sometimes sad. We wonder why for she’s never bad. Dorothy Cote Dorothy Cote of 8B2. Can dance the Charleston the whole way through ; With one hand up and one hand down She can out dance anyone in town. Fannie Cybulski Fannie Cybulski as you see An artist sure will be. She’s the quietest girl in school And never was known to break a rule. Natalie Daniels Natalie! You are such a flirt. To the feminine gender you’re very curt ; But in years to come I’m sure you’ll have learned, That with the male sex you’ll not be concerned. Mario De Caro Mario is bright and fair. At the girls you see him stare. On his face he has a grin And a baseball he can spin. Frank D’Lorenzo A fine artist of 8A Is Frank D’Lorenzo I’m sure you’ll say. And in his studies he does well. As his report card will tell. Albert Doyker Albert Doyker is a good pole vaulter. At jumping he never does falter; He holds the boys’ record at 7 ft. one. Don’t try to beat him, it can’t be done. Edward Drewoning Edward Drewoning of 8B, A very mischievous lad is he. In History he’s right there But for Grammar he does not care. Edward Dunne On a farm Edward lives. Much time to homework he does give. Then when it comes to recitation Edward never takes a vacation. George Evans George is an artist by trade. In this he’ll never let his popularity fade. Maybe some day in a famous hall We’ll see his paintings on the wall. John Fuge John is so very small. We can scarcely think him old, at all. But he is never slow — And is continually on the go. Balsadore Gaetani Now Balsadore G. is quite studious. At arguing he is great. And all of us are eager To hear him in debate. Charles Gannuscia Charles hates to leave the school. He has never felt the teacher’s rule. For in school he’s quiet as a mouse. We wonder if he’s like this in the house. Theresa Garini Theresa Garini is secretary of 8BII, To this work she’s been very faith- ful, too. She’s also secretary of the eighth grade, I think she is “a secretary maid.”
