ARTHUR BERNARD COOPERSTEIN “Usha” Lincoln Junior High School College Columbia “As merry as the day is long.” Delta Psi; Asst. Football Manager ’29, ’30; Senior Reception Committee. Small, but full of pep and ready of wit, “Usha” has proven himself a good scout. MOLLY ELIZABETH COVNER “Mickey” Lincoln Junior High School Commercial Burdett “The best of me is diligence.” English Club, Executive Board; Class Orchestra; Maldonian, Typist. “Mickey” has been a very, very efficient secretary to our advertising manager.

CLARE CORNELIA DINNEEN “Dinny” Browne Junior High School Commercial “A light heart lives lo7ig.” Usona, Secretary; Football Usher; Senior Reception, Usher; Senior Outing Com¬ mittee. “Dinny’s” pastime is “light reading”; that is, watching the electric signs along Tremont Street. Her chief problem now is to find something to do with her spare time. ROBERT RICHARD DOONAN “Pete” Centre Junior High School General “ forgive every woman everything.” Maldonian, Picture Committee. “Pete” has the right philosophy of life. He has no ambition except to work fast and well so that he may loaf longer. It takes “dough” for a loaf.

There may be a rule against whispering in M. H. S., but if so, Miss Norris has occasion to believe that Doris is not aware of that fact.
