A. D. HIGGINS JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL 13 Happy as happy a lass could be Is our Emma from 8C. Rose DeForge Rose DeForge is a quiet lass And is never late for class, In her studies she ranks quite high And we’re all sure that she’ll get by. Anthony Delao Who is this healthy lad Never sad, always glad? Why it’s Anthony Delao of 8C Whom in High School we shall see. Nicholas Dell ’Aquila Nicholas Dell ’Aquila is not very tall He never plays with the girls at all. Talking and laughing used to be his aim. But now that he’s back he’s not quite the same. William Devine William Devine is a poet quite fine. And for literature contests he’s sure to sign. The class enjoys his stories too For his thoughts sure ring true. Lena Di Sciacca Next is Lena — so shy And yet very hard does she try Oral English was her hardest task To be excused was all that she’d ask. Caroline Drost Who is that laughing so loud and gay? Why it’s Caroline Drost, who’s ready to play. Caroline, some day will learn a rule And never again will she fool. Karol Dubiel One, two. three, four, Karol Dubiel is in his store. Out of doors he loves to play And is he healthy. I’ll say. Constance Emanuele Constance is a pretty lass Her studies are prepared for every class. In the plays she takes a part Now don’t you think she’s smart? Charles Falzone We have a boy in the class of 8A Whose teasing ability he does display. It’s Charles Falzone such a tall boy To see him stop growing we all would enjoy. Rita Fay Rita Fay is a bonnie lassie. And sure does dress quite classy. A modiste she’s bound to be. And set the styles for you and me. Mary Feranzoviz Of course you have heard it told That Mary is neither rash nor bold. A very quiet miss is she Hardly giving a glance at you or me. Joseph Fiori The so-called “Professor” of 8B2 Boys like Joseph are few. Recently he bought some glasses But dropped them looking at some lasses. Carmelina Gaetani Carmelina as officer of a room Pias sent more than one person to his doom. Although she has taken many a name We know she is not the one to blame. Hazel Ghabour There is a girl by the name of Hazel Ghabour Of course you have heard her men- tioned before. For she is a girl extremely refined. When spoken to, she makes it her business to mind. Fred Gizara Fred has hopes built so high He wants to grow and reach the sky But we’re afraid he’ll be disappointed along this line Althouerh he is short, he’s a lad quite fine. Alexander Gracewski Alexander is a verv small lad In school he’s anvthing but sad. His serious mind will win him first place When a business career he has to face. Stephen Gracewski Stephen Gracewski, a good-natured lad is he, By his giggles and his laughs you can easily see.

A. D. HIGGINS JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL 15 From working he seldom does refrain, A look at his card will that explain. Harry Greaves Oh “gee whiz” That’s all we hear in a quiz If it isn’t the petit young man Who does his work the best he can. Josephine Grimaldi Josephine Grimaldi so very tall Is Rose’s friend, as you’ll recall She’d rather sew than eat. As a seamstress she is very neat. Enrico Guala Who is that lad of 8B2 Always talking and with nothing to do ? Enrico Guala you all might know Sure enough he’s on with the show. Emil Haber Emil so big and tall Towers over nearly all. “School was never meant for me,” Says Emil quite dramatically. Horace Harris Horace Harris likes to play with the girls And he also likes their curls But when they want him to take them to a show, As you can guess, his money is low. Bernice Henry Bernice Henry on the bus does come From way down Enfield — rural dis- trict No. 1, Rain or shine she’s on the spot. Away from school she’s never caught. Carl Holt Carl is very seldom heard In class to speak a single word. He simply will not tell The thoughts that in his mind do dwell. Donald Holt Donald Holt in 8B2 you’ll see. A large boy for his age is he. On his bicycle he’s always found And on the streets, he rides around. Edward Jarose A fair-haired boy is he And usually full of glee. Always particular about his clothes Is Edward Jarose whom everyone knows. Andrew Jedziniak Andrew Jedziniak is a boy Who fun sure does enjoy. A school enthusiast is not his kind For he has other interests on his mind. Leon Jedziniak Leon’s a first-hand merchant by trade Selling suit after suit of fabrics just made. Hark and listen to the ding, ding, ding. It’s Leon making the cash-register sing. Irvin Johnson Irvin Johnson is a scout At every hike he does turn out. Although Irvin is somewhat small With his friendliness he beats us all. Franksly Kazmierski Franksly is a lad so joyful and gay A broad smile on his face does stay. He puts his foot down on a person who’s glum. To beat Franksly and his mirth, you’ve got to go some. Pearl King Pearl King is a quiet girl in school And tries to obey the golden rule. She studies her lessons with all her might But she suays up too late at night. Adela Klaus Quite short and very fair. Big blue eyes and golden hair. Not hard to guess of whom we speak Adela Klaus a lass so meek. Rose Kolodriez Rose, with dark, brown hair In every class she is there She’s always busy, as we can see. And she bothers neither you nor me. Leo Kupeck Leo is a very helpful lad In nice, neat garments he is clad An errand boy is his fancy. For he banks school funds for Miss Clancy. Stanley Kupeck Crack! and the ball soared in the air The fielder missed it by a hair. Stanley Kupeck ran around first base Just in time to give Higgins first place.
