THOMAS R. GODDARD Lom One of the best all around athletes at M. H. S., Tommy participates actively in all sports. He is outstanding in football and well-known for his vigorous charges through the line. Although happy-go-lucky, Tommy is a hard worker and can be depended upon to carry his share of any burden. He estimates trapping and swimming as A-1 occupations, likes fishing and pool playing and also finds time to act as Junior Assistant Secoutmaster. Because of his success in athletics, we expect Tommy to create for himself a place in the world of sports.

GORDON “Ruthie” Dark and petite are the two terms that outwardly qualify Ruth, first and foremost. Judging, though, from the friendships she has acquired in the past few years, her intellectual and moral qualifications must be vast and many in numbers. Her greatest enjoyments are roller- skating, classical music, and radio comics, while Guy Madison is her supreme Hollywood thrill. She has no plans for further studies, and if she has her way, the telephone company will greet her as an employee before very long. A.A. 3, 4; Usher, Class Play; Decorating, Reception. ROBERT G. HERRICK “Bob” Possessed with a jovial disposition, a constant smile, and a ready sense of humor, it is no wonder that Bob has so many friends within and without the school. It is quite the general sentiment that he belongs among the best dressed. An ardent sports lover, he devotes special attention to football and basketball. On his own, much of his time goes to bowling, dancing, and movies. Be- coming a coach would satisfy one of his persistent desires.

CARMELLA A. GARLAND “Camay” Camay is one who has all it takes to meet the rugged requirements of pleasant companionship. And with that, her devotion to mental advancement has been sturdy and steady. She is one of the basketball devotees, and is often seen at the bowling alleys or the skating rinks. She is keen on buying clothes, and possesses the knack of wearing them very well. If we peer into her future, the outlook has all the earmarks of interior decorating. Softball 2; Basketball 3, 4; Tickets, Class Play; A.A. 2, 3, 4; Usher, Reception. JAMES A. GARLAND “Jimmie” Jimmy’s tall, and well-knit stature earned him the position of tackle on the football team. Though in- terested in sports, he prefers the title of nature lover and likes to take long walks in the woods. . Among his unusual habits are whittling, playing the harmonica and conducting scientific experiments—although in this latter field, his ventures are not always successful, as well may testify his classmates in physics and chemistry. In his spare time he hunts, traps, swims and skates. And notwithstanding his humorous and fun loving disposition, he does like to read. In the future he has hopes of conquering science to the extent of becoming “Garland, the inventor.” Football 2, 3, 4; Math Club 2, 3; Science Club 3; Reception, Decorating 3; Basketball 2; Track 3, 4; A.A. 2, 3, 4; Class Play Cast “Norman Reese’. RAYMOND «E. GODDARD “Ray” It takes a great deal to ruffle this smooth-sailing temperament. Ray will ever be happy if left to the pursuit of his happiness in his own joyous way. Sports occupy a huge portion of his interests, and performances have been brilliant, especially in football and track. Other occupations which meet his favor include horseback riding and dancing. He intends to make the Navy his abode, but only after a brief respite following graduation. Football 4; Track 3, 4; Stage and Properties, Class Play; A.A. 2, 3, 4; Decorating, Reception. 20

JOHN L. KANE “Johnny” Many a dull moment has been made happy by Johnny’s unusual interruptions in the class rooms. A sharp and natural critic, his intellect finds satisfaction only in the exclusion of roundabout measures; he likes his presenta- tions straight from the shoulder. He feels at home on the gridiron and the court, but shines particularly on the track, which team he captained to glorious results. He also swims and skis, but his greatest leg exertion is still in the delivery of the United States mail.

And light brown hair; and a smiling face? Why, yes, that is Anne Kelley! This fair specimen of the gentler sex adds sturdiness to looks, for she shines brilliantly as a forward on the varsity basketball squad, and her ability has saved many a game. Her interests also center on practically all sports. Anne’s company spells fun, and her bubbling character makes her an all around favorite. To all this, add a deep intellectual capacity, and you shall agree that Anne’s tomorrows take on the rosy hue of a promising success.

DAVID LL KOUKROE “Dave” Dave hits about the average mark on the scales as far as height and weight are concerned. He is light of complexion, sports rather rugged bones, and normally hides himself behind a pair of bespectacled, blue eyes that are always cheerful. The vision of his future has not yet been focused upon any definite objective, but the clearest picture appears to be the family heirloom, gladioli, with a bit of general farming thrown in. No further studies are contemplated at present. Leisures are taken up by movies, a model railroad, skiing, and the great outdoors.
