MARY STEARNS Basketball 3: D. A. R. Award 4: Arrow Literary Staff 3: Editor-in- Chief 4: Latin Club 4: Rhode Island Honor Society. Did you ask for a tall, good-looking girl with the brain of a wizard? We're quite sure that Mary is the one for whom you are looking. We might also add that she has a gift of gab-page Celeste! Thus far this year, she has done very nicely without having any childish diseases. It is indeed a record! There is no need to say that she is a popular and very likeable girl: the D, A. R. award proved that. Next year, this lass goes to Smith. EVELYN MARIE TERRIEAU If we may take our little glass globe in hand and prophesy, we should say that Evie will be a dress designer of the future. Bar- rington is not much appreciated by this young lady, although she seems to enjoy herself in study hall. She amuses herself at Briggs Beach winter, summer and fa'l. We remember, for we used her bath house at the Latin Class Outing. When asked who her favorite movie star is, Evie of course answers, Joan Crawford . Bon Voyage! , , . LAURA ELIZABETH TIERNEY Class Treasurer l-2-344: Basketball 4: Glce Club I-4: flrrow Literary Staff 4: Rhode Island Honor Society. Laura has been our gold-digger treasurer for four years. We're quite used to her pleas for money, but if she only knew how much it hurts to dig into one's pocket! Laura is going to be a school teacher, However, its hard to imagine anyone so small behind 21 large desk. Her pupils will have to keep their eyes on her, for she's apt to break into a dance during a geography recitation. If her pupils like her as much as we do, there'll be many a red app'e on her desk. ARTHUR BRINTNALL TINGLEY, JR. flrrow Business Staff 4. Here we have Buddy, the best dressed boy in the class. We girls :ertainly admire his snappy combinations. Bud is the answer to the question, Why do teachers get gray hair? He and John are practically inseparable: even home-room period finds them chatter- ing. Could it be that their interests lie in the same place? In our reunion of 1947, we'll remember Buddy as the boy with the tooth- picks. Good luck at Vermont Academy! 27

ISABELLE VENDIT UOLI Glee Club 1-2-3-4: Opcretta 4. Bella's sparkling personality has gained her many friends. You will find her smiling at any hour of the day. How she does it. we can never know. As she is very appreciative and patient, we're sure she will get along in life. We surmise that she will be the first one of our class to be married. She aided the success of the Operetta by lending her voice to the rest of our songbirds. We are not quite sure of her future destination, but who knows?-perhaps she'll be keeping house. LESTER JOSEPH WAINWRIGHT Baseball 4: Basketball 3-4. Butts is one of that illustrious group known as the A'Bay Spring Gang . His love of a good card game is second only to his interest in sports. Butts' specialty is a green shirt with bright suspenders. He and Hawkes make a fascinating pair. When near girls, he rare- ly speaks more than three words. Tackle your problems as you do a basketball game, Butts, and you'll win out. :Ir 5,504 W 0 Glee Club 2-3-4. VIVIAN MAE WATERMAN Babe is one of these quiet. demure girls who believes in the saying, a person learns by listening . She is always ready for a good time, and when school is out, her fun begins. Her blonde hair, blue eyes, and irresistible smile are the envy of many. Vivian hasn't made up her mind as to what she will do after graduation, but the best wishes of the class of thirty-seven are with her. WILLIAM WINDLE National Broadcasting Company:- Have for you another Boake Carter, who keeps up to date on world events-is very conservative-plays a trombone-is one of the editors of The Informer-has a hard time spelling such words as forty--plans to be a draftsman-is very well liked, and when you get to know him, you won't wonder why. 28
