18 The Lawrencian PENA, MANUEL — Mannie, you seem to enjoy the “Hicks”, but in case you ever grow tired of them, take this sugar! PERRY, PETER — Peter, since you are very fond of golf I give you this golf ball, which is guaran- teed not to get lost in the rough! PERRY, ROBERT — “Bob”, you seem to be very crazy about going to fires. So that you can corry your friends with you, I give you this trailer ! R ABES A, LOUIS — Louis, you were voted the shortest in the class. In order that you may realize your tallest ambition, I had these stilts made. SAMPLE, DONALD — “Donnie”, four miles is quite a distance to walk. Perhaps you can use this car! STEVENSON, ROBERT— Bob, you are so quiet, perhaps you can make some noise with this rat- tle! TAVARES, JOHN — John, working in a store requires good, steady nerves. To keep you from hav- ing a nervous breakdown, I give you this celery! THAYER, GEORGE— George, you are an excellent “sax” player and we have missed your music late- ly. Polish up the “Silvertone” with this Silver Polish. WHITE, MANUEL — Manuel, you seem to attract attention by play- ing the keys. But piano keys are quite difficult. Try these!

Lawrence High School 17 LOUISE SCANNELL — Louise, to help you keep George in tune, we give you this pitch pipe. BARBARA SCHARFF— Barbara, the class felt that your long finger- nails were a menace to the Com- munity. So that you may keep them down to normal, we give you this fingernail file. KATHERINE SERVIS— Katherine, you are the quietest girl in the class, but you may be able to make some noise with this cannon. BERNIECE SYLVIA — Berniece, we understand that you want to be- come a nurse, so we give you this first aid kit. FRANCES WILLIAMS — Frances, you are the youngest in the class, and to keep your mind occupied, we give you this rattle.

Robert Perry, ’38 CLASS GIFTS TO BOYS ABBOTT, JOHN — You seem to have quite a knack for writing poems and odes. To inspire you when you feel a stroke of genius coming on, I give you this “book of poems.” CHAMBERLAIN, EUGENE — Gene, I hear that you want to attend the “Conservatory of Music.” So that you’ll start off on the right note, I’m giving you this horn!
