THE SCREECH OWL 27 Benjamin Tamnlevich — “Bennie” The TT” man of the seniors. Riding is his pet hobby. One big fault with Bennie is, he still blushes behind his ears. Ruth Taylor — “Ruthie” “Ruthie” has made a success as the orchestra pianist. She also possesses a beautiful voice. You ought to go on the air Ruth. “Forge” ahead! John Tohin — “Chippy” “Chippy” was voted the j oiliest boy in the class. His wink is what gets them.. Ever read any of “Chippy’s” poems ? He’s some poet. Maybe the word “Peanut” inspires him. Maybe some day he will tell us how he got the nickname “Chippy.” Stanley Uglevich — “Ungi’’ Speed demons haven’t anything on that fellow. A ride will convince you, but ah-ah — take out your insurance. “Ungi” likes fast Chryslers and certain sisters from Dartmouth Street. Elvi Uljua Although Elvi appears to be very bash- ful, she isn’t quite that bad. You ought to see her on her “off” days. At Long Lake, maybe ?

« 26 THE SCREECH OWL Helen Sczerzen — “Helcia” Famous for her athletic feats and wise cracks. Likes movies and walking. I wonder why ? “Snoopy Sam” says she’s a swell cook. That’s good news to some senior I Alec Shinowski . We hardly know that Alec is with us but his record proves that we are wrong. Alec is some short-hand shark! Oui? Kevin Spratt At football he’s unique.. But if seeing is believing, Beware of his big feet! Jacob Swartz — “Jake” Jacob is a sheik, and his charms go far when he tries to sell pants — “sew it seams.” Some people know their onions from A to Z, but Jake knows his from “A P.” Osmo Sulkala — “Ossie” How the Commercial girls do like to tease Osmo! He’s so bashful, doncha know. But in spite of this trait, Ossie made good in hockey, soccer, and track.

28 THE SCREECH OWL Joseph Wasiuk — ‘‘Joe” ‘‘Joe” ought to get the C.S.S. degree: Champ Senior Sleeper. Besides sleeping, “Joe” has gone air-minded. A non-stop hop across Mill Pond is Joe’s ambition. Happy landing, “Joe.” Walter Yanuskiewicz — “Shlakey” A quiet fellow who takes his schoolroom seriously. Shlakey is so quiet, it’s a shame, because we can’t say much about him ! Oh that we were like that ! Helen Zaniewski Helen’s hardworking and pleasant char- acteristics have been outstanding during her four years of high school. Foreign correspondence is Helen’s hobby. Who has not stumbled through her French letters ? Miss Cleary To whose genius as a coach, we attribute the success of our class plays during the past three years. Her whole-hearted interest and her great generosity of time and service have made a debt we can never pay. We can only say we appreciate it. William Ledgard— “Bill” What was it that Aristotle said about Ledgard? Well, as long as we all re- member it, why repeat ? His talents overcome ordinary capacity, and yet he has the genial dignity of the true Senior. Our only fear is — what will the Harvard atmosphere do to that “genial dignity?”
