A. D. HIGGINS JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL 7 stage. The first chorus included Stella Koziara, Mildred Charette, and Dora Decaro among the gorgeously costumed girls. The Trachimowicz Twins, Amelia and Regina, appeared next and I thought them very different from the girls I used to know. In one of the final scenes, a group of ten girls did a very intricate dance. Five of these I found were: Ruth Kuhm, Josephine Ambrosini, Helen Podosek, Edna Crosson, and Bernice Squires. All of these girls sang well also. The road I was following led me next through a picnic ground. Vencie Romano was selling hoops with which I tried to ring a box of chocolates. After some unsuccessful attempts, I managed to win a box of Nabonyz Chocolates. I bought a hot dog from Jenny Petrosky at another booth and a little farther along Katie Anzalotti sold me a bottle of soda. Mary Gucwa was selling chances on blankets. I bought one, but had no hope of winning any- thing. My car next brought me to the White House where I beheld Charles Alaimo, President of the United States, with his Secretary. Mary Doyker, and part of his cabinet: Sec- retary of State, Stanley Jennola; Secretary of Agriculture, William Tarasavitch, and Secretary of Labor, Frank Kida — all attending a recep- tion in honor of Commander Alvin Jackson who had just completed a non-stop flight around the world. Leonard Ruggiero accompanied him on his trip. His plane was made by Matthev Michalowski. Among the other notables present at this affair were: Jennie Francia- more, a famed aviatrix, and two Con- gress women, Anna Poloski and Lill- ian Spazzarini. I had no sooner resumed my trip when the four wheels flew off of my car and so the journey ended with a bump. I did not mind, however, as I had seen all my classmates and my curiosity about them was satisfied. JINGLES Charles Alaimo Charles, is president of our class. He never annoys a lass. Some day you will see. What a leader he will be. Lillian Alaimo Lillian is a gay young lass Who comes prepared to every class. At home the dishes she helps to wash A helpful lass is she by gosh. Joseph Albano Joseph Albano, a light haired boy Is really quite some joy. His pants are pressed and neat And his appearance is hard to beat. Josephine Aloisa Josephine likes to laugh and play In school and out every day. Whenever you hear a shriek or call You know Josephine’s in the hall. Josephine Ambrosini Josephine so cute and small Disturbs the teachers not at all. She stands up when she’s spoken to. And brings her homework when it’s due. Carlo Angelica Carlo Angelica a baseball star Can run both fast and far. But when it comes to a spelling test His paper is never among the best. Joseph Anzolatti Joseph is a jolly boy And his jokes w e all enjoy. He’s popular with girls and never shy That’s why we never pass him by. Katie Anzolotti Katie Anzolotti is quite smart And through the hall she sure does dart. Her voice is both soft and low All the teachers will tell you so. Renzo Arietti Renzo Arietti of 8B one Is always joyful and full of fun; On the way to school he lurks And when he gets there, — never works.
