Ludlow High School ERNEST LYNN CRANDELL Red Bridge, July 30, 1906 “ U'p! up! my friend and clear your looks, Why all this toil and trouble?” Here comes the 1926 cynic and pessimist—so he acclaims himsel‘! We wonder! He has a cheerful smile; he’s a friendly lad, too. Is it because he enjoys studying people? If so, perhaps that’s his reason for being so doubtful of life. He’s young yet, he'll get over it. One thing he has never doubted—his Dad makes the best butter in New England. So, you’re going to be a wanderer, Johnny? An “Tnnocent Abroad,” what? We all envy you and hope that your future will not only lead you into far away countries, but back to us here, where we may see you once in a while. LORETTA ELIZABETH DE ROCHE Ludlow, Mass., January 27, 1906 “Tell us, Teddy, tell us why, You appear so wondrous coy.” One cold day last autumn, the wind blew Teddy back to L. H. S. and into our room. Right then and there the Senior Class brightened, and, thanks to her laughter, have stayed happy. Nine o’clock bells? Ok they mean nothing to Ted. She has her own method of keeping time. Even in dancing, where she can “‘come and trip it as you go”’ with the bestof them. ‘‘Plinkety, plank, plinkety, plank” you can hear that jazzy uke of hers, can’t you? Haven’t you? Then you’re out of luck. What else “cc can she do? Well, she can smile, even when luck’s against her, she can swim, she can drive a Flint, and she can get attention at a certain garage in West Springfield. Keep on with that smile and that good nature of yours. You’ll win out with more than just “killing time.” Chorus 1, 2, 3, 4; Glee Club 1, 2, 3, 4. 1]

Che Statir LOUIS JOSEPH BOUSQUET Ludlow, Mass., May 21, 1908 “God hid a whole world of good nature in thy heart.” Joe, who came to the Ludlow Schools from the Parochial School in Indian Orchard, has made his mark on the heart of every member of the class. Good natured, always willing, often made the goat in some school prank, he is still the same very happy, smiling, “‘betting,” Joe. His good scholarship is shown in math, where he is an exceptionally clever student at solving geometry problems. We know that when Joe goes into business with his father, the firm ‘‘Bousquet Son” will soon lead in the contracting field. The joy that his classmates will feel when he publishes his book on ‘‘Parlia- mentary Procedure’ will be unbounded. Until then, we feel that we shall be unable to conduct a class meeting properly.

They are all very deserving nicknames. One readily agrees to that after seeing his enormous five feet four frame. Had your iron today? If not there’s some irony. ‘To get down to real facts, Janes is quite a fellow. He managed to get through the Ludlow grammar schools and has reached the dignified stateliness of a Senior. Further proofs of his ability are the cup that he has carried away for Diving Championship in ?’23, ‘knuckle-down”’ champ in ’24, and the insignia for Junior Life- Saving in 725. Billy Boy likes to swim, skate, ski, and last but not least play golf. In the future “Husky” intends to: 1. Grow taller (although he has grown quite a bit lately.) 2. Win Shorthand Championship of World. 3. Win Open Golf Championship. P. S$. He wants to be a world wild hero. Minstrel Show 3; Entertainment Committee 2; Chorus 1, 2, 3, 4; Glee Club 1, 2, 3. 10

Che Static ERWIN LEE EISOLD Ludlow, Mass., December 27, 1907 “Tn limbs young, in wisdom old.” The outstanding scholar of our class and one of the most brilliant pupils Ludlow has ever produced is Bismark, who has his own ideas about most things. “From Missouri” fits him a good deal of the time. With his excellent athletic ability and superb concentrating power, it is no surprise that Bismark is a favorite. How any pupil can find time to play tennis, -box, skate, and take part in all school activities (including athletics and dramatics) is a puzzle not easy to solve! Bismark has a habit of excelling in all things in which he participates, so that if his plans of going to college and then to law school are carried out, we know Bismark will be a credit to Ludlow and the class of 26. First in work, first in play Will make Bismark renowned some day. Glass) President 25) Baseball 2 3° Soccer Football 4; Chorus 3, 4; Basketball 3, 4; Joke Editor of Parsot and Static 4; Class Play 4. ELIZABETH CAROLYN ELDRIDGE Ludlow, Mass., August 2, 1905 ““« uiet and shy this maid whom we call friend.” Lizzie tried all (?) of the schools in Western Massachusetts before she came to Ludlow. [Finally she settled down in the famous Jute town. We’re glad she did. Are you observing that rule ‘“‘Silence is golden?’ Teach us the meaning of it, for sad to relate, we, the class of 26, are not adepts in holding our tongues. We envy you for this and for your many accomplishments, which few of us possess. You have learned that happiness is to be found in patience and the simple things of life. Success to you always, Lizzie. Chorus 1, 2, 3; Glee Club 1, 2, 3, 4; Committee for Commencement 4. 12
