Helen Hill “A sunny disposition is the very soul of success.” Helen has helped in serving us many meals in cafeteria. A good seamstress with a mischievous air, Helen keeps herself busy talking with the girls in sewing class. Her spare time is occupied with writing letters to “Jackie”, who is in the Navy. Glee Club 1, 2; Choir 3; Cafeteria 3, 4; Cap and Gown Committee 4. James Hill “Act well your- part.” Although Jim was voted our class pessimist, his ready smile and pleasing disposition would seem to indicate that this was not a fitting title. Jim proved his ability as an actor by his excellent portrayal of “Griggs”, the butler, in the Senior Play. Most of his outside time is dedicated to art at which he is very proficient. Any school morning he might have been seen running up Paradise Road in his efforts to catch the bus.

Carole Homans “A sweet disposition is more valuable than gold.” Carole, one of the quieter members of our class, can often be seen in Cafeteria or with Grace and Louise. Her interest in and ability to carry through all her activities plus her ready smile make her well liked by us all. Glee Club 1, 2, 3; Choir 4; Cub Typist 4; Tiger Typist 4; Sunshine Committee 4; Basketball 1, 2. Kenneth Hood “Little Master Mischievous, that’s the name for you.” “Hoodie” was voted the best boy dancer in his class. His keen interest and ability are shown on the basket- ball court. Always joking with everyone, “Hoodie” is unpredictable, but a lot of fun. Football 1, 4; Letter 4; Basketball 2, 3, 4; Letter 4; Class Celebrity; Benefit Show 4; Junior Prom Com- mittee. Jere Hovey “A little nonsense, now and then Is relished by the best of men.” Jere, who is our class clown, can often be seen living- up to his title in second period English class. Although the First National occupies most of his time, “Decker” always has a happy smile and a friendly word for every- one. With his likable manner and keen sense of humor, we’re sure Jere will be a success. Boys’ Glee Club 2; Tiger Staff 4; Benefit Show 4; Class Celebrity 4. 9

Grace Girard “It’s nice to be natural When you’re naturally nice.” Grace, better known as ‘Bunty”, is a lively girl, full of mischief, and always ready to take part in a merry trick. In the cafeteria after school, you could hear her cheerful voice singing out above the clatter of dishes and trays. Glee Club 1, 2; Choir 3, 4; Archery 1; Baton Twirler 4; Operetta 3, 4; Cafeteria 3, 4; Steering Committee 4; Junior Prom Committee 3. Gwyneth Gunn “Dresses to sit in and stand in and walk in Dresses to dance in and flirt in and talk in.” Short, cute, and flirtatious, “Gwenny” is our class boy- ologist. Her lively spirit in cheerleading won her the title of co-head cheerleader this year. Being one of the best-dressed girls in the class, “Gwenny” has shown excellent taste in clothing.

Louise Gwinn “I say no more than I should say.” Although Louise may appear subdued, she is actually quite carefree and lively. During her excess waking hours she dabbles very proficiently in oils, baby sits, or dates Donnie. Although she has no plans for next year as yet, we wish her happiness and good luck in the future. Lillian Hawkes “As merry as the day is long.” Lillian’s unsuppressed giggle and dimpled smile are proof of her lively character. When she isn’t busy with her varying dates she can be seen chauffeuring her many friends around in the family car. Glee Club 1, 2; Choir 3, 4; Operetta 3, 4; Orchestra 1, 2, 3, 4; Basketball 1; Softball 1, 2; Archery 1, 2; Librarian 4; Senior Committee. Harriet Heard “Good health and good sense Are two of life’s greatest blessings.” Harriet, who comes from the Linebrook region, is often seen sporting about the town in her tiny car or in the company of a certain red-haired lad from Topsfield. Harriet’s cheerful and friendly attitude is an asset to our class. Glee Club 1; Treasurer, French Club 4; Cub Staff 1, 2, 3; Tiger Staff. 9

Ann Hull “Fashioned so slenderly, young and so fair.” Ann, one of our fashion-wise and loveliest girls, was voted one of the “most popular” in the senior class. When Ann isn’t busy with many class activities or sew- ing, she can usually be found somewhere with her Jackie, or could be until the Army took him in March. Glee Club 1, 2; Choir 4; Operetta 3, 4; Class Officer 3; Class Celebrity; Tiger Staff; Benefit Show; Junior Prom Committee; Picture Committee; Class Day Part; Senior Play. Evelyn Karalias “Her air, her manners, all who saw admired.” Evelyn is less often heard from than some of our noisier students, but she has proved herself ambitious and capable. She has shown a great deal of talent in acting and she was voted class actress. In her spare time Evelyn writes energetically for “The Cub” and “Tiger” when she isn’t busy sewing many of her own clothes.

Ida LeBel “Among the good things I prove and find The quiet things doth abound.” Well groomed and smiling, Ida spent most of her time in the cafeteria. Although her outside life is somewhat of a secret, we have heard of a certain “Doug”. Ida can be seen arriving every morning in Burke’s taxi, and we are sure her desire to get ahead will always aid her in a successful career. Girls’ Glee Club 1, 2; Cub and Tiger Typist 4; Junior Prom Committee 3. Lucy Kisiel “The joy of youth and health her eyes display’d.” Lucy is not only the shortest girl in our class, but also one of the merriest. With all the letters she has to write to Dick, she has a difficult time finding time to do her homework. You may notice that almost all of her jewelry is adorned with the Air-Force insignia. Glee Club 1, 2, 3; Cub and Tiger Typist; Prom Com- mittee 3. Yvonne LeBel “Silence is the perfectest herald of joy, I were but little happy, if I could say how much.” Although she is quiet and unassuming, Yvonne has made many friends in school. She has followed through the commercial course for four years in hopes of be- coming a secretary. Success to Yvonne in her future career!
