s a Elizabeth Natalie Pukas 43 Congress Avenue lfLiZ77 Elizabeth was born in Water- bury, July 7, 1907, just after the loudest firework went off. Liz must have caught part of that firework, for she has such a hearty laugh and always works for the good of Leavenworth. Elizabeth was graduated from St. Joseph's Parochial Grammar School, and now she is going away out West to the Battle Creek Hospital to study nurs- ing. After that there will be an R. N. sign out on her door at Congress Avenue. Page Forty-s ix Honors Liber Board, Business Manager 4. Prom Committee, 4. Sock and Buskin, 3. Senior Plays, 3. Budget Committee, 4. Second Prize Story, 3.

as Vincent Joseph Plotas 70 Congress Avenue Vinnie No, kind reader, Vinnie is not a hypnotist. That straight, dignified look you see him wearing here is due to a noble atmosphere, he composed the music for the Song of '26, you know, and 'tis said he's an art- ist at playing any kind of musi- cal instrument. You should see him swinging his baton on a Thursday afternoon when the class has singing. Vinnie was born in that very peaceful country, Russia, where if a revolution doesn't happen at least once a day, the populace Wonders what's the matter. Vinnie didn't stay long in Russia, but came to Waterbury where he received his early education at St. Jo- seph's Parochial Grammar School. Honors Liber Board, Illustrator, 4. Music of Class Song, 4.

i :7 Jane Frances Ranando 63 North Leonard Street Just Jane Silence is golden, so they say, and if this be true, our Jane is a gold brick. Her words are few, and when she speaks, we assure you that her voice is not heard all over the building. Miss Ranando was born in Waterbury, February 28, 1908, and was graduated from Bar- nard Grammar School. Jane is not going to enter col- lege after completing her course at Leavenworth. She plans to settle down and keep house for her mother for a- while and then - well. maybe then she'1l get married. 'Tis said at Leavenworth that she's a first class cook, and cooks, good ones, don't stay single very long. Honors Treasure Speech, 4. Long Haired Sisters' Club, 3, 4. Girls' Basketball, 1, 2, 3, 4.
