Lawrence High School % can butt to your heart’s content and still make very little impres- sion, .we give you this cast iron billy goat. Miss Beatrice Emerald, you’re next. Beatrice your nickname is “Blimp”. I’m sure you don’t weigh so much as this little “blimp”. Miss Phyllis Boynton, please step up. Phyllis you’re the most quiet girl in the class, therefore we award you this diploma for quietness. Miss Jane Douthart, step up, please. Jane, you do so much talk- ing that we think you should be a lawyer. Since it would be a long time before you’re admitted to the bar, we admit you to this one. (Wooden bar). Miss Adelaide Hildreth, front, please. Miss Hildreth you are al- ways chewing gum. Give Wrigley a break, and chew on this teething ring. Miss Kathryn Lawrence next, please. Miss Lawrence is the class artist. To help your artistic abil- ity along we give you this excellent paint brush. Miss Mary Fernandes, we’re go- ing to call on you next. When you laugh, Mary, the only animal that can give you competition is this little donkey. Helen Dee Nightwine, will you be next? Helen, as a reminder to drive your car at a moderate speed and keep away from the telephone poles, we give you this police ticket. Lillian Parker is the next un- lucky one. Lillian, your ambition is to be a private secretary. We give you this small pencil so that you can get plenty of practice. An- other thing, a good secretary should mind her boss. Blush for the audi- ence, Lillian! — Thank you. Olive Peck, front please. Miss Peck has a passion for new Fords and also a young man by the name of Chisel. To help you chisel a ride in that new Ford we give you this one. (Chisel). Agnes Romiza, you’re next. You all know Agnes is quite a dress- maker. To enable you to do some fine needle work, Agnes, we give you this needle and thread (very large). Miss Thelma Robichaud, step up, please. Thelma, your nickname is “Tugboat Annie.” You’re very much like Marie Dressier, eve ' h - ugh you are slightly heavier. That little difference doesn’t matter though, so we give you this tugboat. I guess we’ll call on Elizabeth Wells next. We haven’t been able to scrape up anything against Elizabeth. No one seems to know much about her. Miss Wells, be- cause you’re the dark horse of the class we give you this little dark horse. Miss Carolyn Gomes is the next one. Miss Gomes, I notice you do quite a bit of talking. You say more in five minutes than anyone else says in an hour. As a reward for your vocal abilities we give you this microphone. We shall now call on Helen Fish. Helen, you do a lot of whispering in your English class. We figure you have something up your sleeve. Whenever Mr. Allen looks your way, your face has a guilty look. This time we’re going to give you an empty sleeve. You can’t pos- sibly have anything up this one. Miss Julia Parker, I’m giving the audience a break by ending up with you. You’re the last but not the least. Julia, you should be an actress, because you’re a very hot number. To keep you cooled off, we give you this fire engine. Robert Egeland.
