Our paths will be many and varied, yet, no matter where they lead us, the train- ing we have received in these past four years will ever be an able guide to us, and will remain the solid foun- dation upon which our entire future lives may well be built. In high school we have worked and played together, and have formed friendships that will last forever ; dur- ing one of the finest and most import- ant periods of our lives we have spent much of our time working in and for the school. It is only fitting that we have some tangible remembrance of our happy days here, one that will serve as an ever-present reminder of the many hours passed in pleas- ant labor with friends and teachers. The Screech Owl Year Book is the perfect medium for this, so to you, classmates, we dedicate this Senior Number of the Screech Owl. May it serve its purpose well! P. Pv. W. 2 ACTIVITIES JUNIOR PROM The Junior Prom is one of the school activities to which everyone looks forward. As usual they were not disappointed in the outcome of the one held June 2, 1933, in the audi- torium. The hall was decorated most attractively in rainbow shades of paper and gold stars. At the windows hung dainty colored curtains; on the window-sills sat jars of paper sweet peas. The girls looked charming in their dainty organdy frocks. The boys were most gallant with their bouton- niers of sweet peas ; and Miss Cassone, the class advisor, appeared very stun- ning in a rust colored dress. The ma- trons were Mrs. James King, Miss Ethel Butterworth, Miss Anne Pasa- karnis, Mrs. James Malcolm, and Mrs. Edward McPherson. Music was fur- nished by Sheridan’s orchestra. In the grand march favors of telephone and address books were given to the guests. Punch and cookies were served in the gymnasium. Congratulations to Miss Cassone and the Junior Class! BREEZIN’ ALONG Maynard High School has just presented a musical comedy entitled “Breezin’ Along.” It was given in the Parker Street Hall, May 17 and 18. The play was the combined efforts of townspeople and students. The character parts were played by Jack Johnson, Loraine Koch, Robert Les- ter, Julia White, Roderick Mclver, Elin Swanson, Kalervo Kansonniva, Anna Swanson, Constance Ferris, John Murphy, John Pozericki, Ed- ward Hannon, Irene Lemoine, Julius Melewski, and John Fay ton. The chorus numbers were cleverly done by Mary Bobritsky, Elvi and Sylvia Nyholm, Sylvia Manninen, Helen Pyszka, Mary Kizik, Stella Lubin, Mary Gudzinowicz, Sara Wasiuk, Lucy Bingel, Rita Sheridan, Ruth Weir, Alice Macey, Mary Soko- lowski, Veronica Arciszewski, Olga Mark, Eileen Johnston, Eileen Reid, Olga Kozak, Veronica Piecewicz, Lil- lian Sullivan, William Johnson, John Malcolm, Edward O’Donnell, Stanley Piecewicz, John Thompson, Joseph Arcisz, John O’Leary, Vincent Labo- wicz, and Richard Murphy. The cast had much fun and enjoy- ment in producing the play. The money benefited all the activities in the school. Miss Ruth Taylor furnished the music. The coaching was done by Miss Eleanor Merritt of Boston. RECENT ALUMNI Harold R. Wilcox (’30), son of Mr. and Mrs. Charles R. Wilcox of 16 Brooks Street, Maynard, a junior at Tufts College, was initiated into the Delta Chapter of Tau Beta Pi, the honorary engineering fraternity which corresponds to the Phi Beta Kappa of the liberal arts college, at the annual spring initiation and ban- quet, at the Commander Hotel in Cambridge. John M. Bellows, Jr. (’30), a fresh- man at the University of Vermont, was recently initiated into Wig and Buskin, men’s honorary dramatic society. Catherine Coughlin (’31), a sopho- more at Boston University, won the girls’ tennis championship of the Uni- versity for the second time. ATHLETICS BASEBALL Tied for first place in the Middlesex League with Lexington and Belmont, and for first place in the Midland League with both Marlboro and Hud- son, Maynard’s prospects look much brighter. The scores of the games as they have been played are: April 21 — Maynard at Winchester Maynard — 6, Winchester — 5 April 25 — Belmont at Maynard Maynard — 9, Belmont — 9 April 29 — Marlboro at Maynard Marlboro — 10, Maynard — 6 May 2 — Stoneham at Maynard Maynard — 6, Stoneham — 4 May 5 — Maynard at Lexington Lexington — 6, Maynard — 4 May 9 — Concord at Maynard Concord — 3, Maynard — 2 May 12 — Maynard at Reading Maynard — 7, Reading — 4 May 13 — Maynard at Hudson Maynard — 7, Hudson — 4 May 16 — Winchester at Maynard Maynard — 21, Winchester — 2 May 19 — Maynard at Belmont Belmont — 14, Maynard — 3 May 23 — Reading at Maynard Maynard — 6, Reading — 3 There are several Seniors on the baseball team this year who are ex- cellent players. The Seniors who already have M’s for baseball and those who have earned a letter are: Joseph Castanza Reino Grondahl John Pozerycki Stanley Wojtkiewicz Ralph Lent TRACK The track meet with Concord was won by a narrow margin of three points. May 10, the day for which the meet was scheduled was rainy so it was postponed until the next day. The teams were very evenly matched and the events were always close. Our boys worked their muscles to the utmost in order to win and came through in fine style. Final score, Maynard — 40, Concord — 37. The Senior track lettermen are: Francis Gilleney Tony Kavaleski John Thompson Richard Archer FOOTBALL The last two years have been com- paratively successful for the football team. Most of those who have helped to put Maynard on the high school football map are graduating this June and will never again represent May- nard High on the field of sports. There were seven Seniors on the first team last fall and several others on the second team. The Seniors who were presented football M’s at the Football Banquet are: Michael Ignachuck, Captain Richard Archer Reno Aho John Thompson John Murphy John O’Toole John Pozerycki Oiva Hintsa Francis Gilleney Bradford Case Reino Grondahl Senior Girl Wearers of the M Alice Kitowicz, Field Hockey (Capt.) ; Basketball Sylvia Nyholm, Field Hockey; Basket- ball (Capt.) Aune Salo, Field Hockey ; Basketball Marguerite Carbary, Field Hockey Rita Bariteau, Field Hockey (Mgr.) Helen Sienkiewicz, Basketball By Malcolm P. Trees. 5 THE SCREECH OWL Arnold Anderson “Speech is silver Silence is golden.” Arnold is one of the boys that can always win the prize waltz. Don’t step on the ladies’ toes, Arnold. Joseph Arcisz “I am wealthy in my friends.” Inter-class Football 1, 2, 3; Inter-class Basketball 2, 3, 4; Track 4; School Play 4 ; Glee Club 4. Joe Arcisz, one of the inseparables — Joe is willing to work, and provides fun at the same time. Rita Bariteau “Clever, snappy, anl always happy.” Class Play Competition 1, 2, 3; Screech Owl Staff 3, 4; Student Council 4; Hockey Manager 4; Class Officer 1; Speaker, Graduation Night 4. Rita is a “Jack of all trades,” only she is “master of all.” No matter what, or how much she attempts, she always does it well, and always comes through smiling. Dorothy Burnham “When you have nothing to say, say nothing.” Hockey 2; Junior Prom Committee 3; Christmas Social Committee 4; Glee Club 4 ; Screech Owl 4 ; Speaker, Grad- uation Night 4. What will Mr. Lerer do without Dot next year? And what will happen to her when she lives on the campus of a college? Mary Canella “The Blues rarely overtake a hustler.” Basketball (Inter-class) 2. Mary, will you ever put the brakes on? Don’t get four wheel brakes because that would never do for many good reasons. Be careful going down hill. 6 THE SCREECH OWL Marguerite Carbary “Her looks do argue modesty.” Field Hockey 4 ; Inter-class Field Hockey 3 ; French Play 4. Although she has been with us only two years, Marguerite has formed many friendships and has shown herself as an all-round good sport. Bradford Case “And bring with thee — Laughter holding both his sides.” President of Freshman Class; Manager, Basketball 1; Class .Play 1, Stage Manager 2, 3 ; Christmas Social Com- mittee 3, 4 ; Football 3, 4 ; Screech Owl 3, 4, Business Manager 4 ; Speaker, Graduation Night 4. A gurgle, a chuckle, a whoop— Bradford ! Joseph Castanza “Men are not measured by inches.” Baseball 1, 2, 3, 4 ; Captain 4 ; Inter-class Basketball 4. Joe does not put himself forward in school, but remember the saying, “Good things come in small packages.” Zennia Chutoranski “Her ways are ways of pleasantness.” Physical Education Exhibition 1 ; Secre- tary of Character Club 3; Leader of 4-H Club 1, 2, 3, 4. Zennia is so quiet we hardly know she’s here, but she is liked by all who know her. John D ' Errico “I hasten not to keep my dates for I care not who waits.” Baseball (Inter-class) 2; Football (Inter- class) 3 ; “Riding Down the Sky” 2. John may give the wrong impression, girls, but remember that time nor tide waits for no man. Don’t make the right one wait too long. THE SCREECH OWL 7 Stanley DeWitt “To be simple is to be great.” Student Council 4. Stanley is a boy that is never heard, but always does what he undertakes to the highest degree of perfection. Isabelle Donahue “The heart to conceive, the understand- ing to direct, or the hand to execute.” Junior Prom Committee 3; Usher 1, 3; French Soiree 4 ; Christmas Social Committee 3; Ring Committee 3. Isabelle, who is always willing to help the class — how’s “Irish?” Mary Donahue “0 this learning, what a thing it is!” We understand Mary is going to be a teacher. Here’s luck to you, Mary. Re- member your school days when teaching. Anna Fayton “As merry as the day is long.” Anna spent some of her Senior days in the hospital. She may tell you about her operation some time. Anna, do you still enjoy the shade of a “Maple” tree? Thomas Gately “And there is one rare strange virtue in his speeches The secret of his mastery — they are short.” Track 1, 4; Basketball 2; Inter-class Basketball 4; Inter-class Football 3; Physical Education Exhibition 2, 3. Tom, the big, silent type, has an impene- trable armor. However, there must be some loop-hole, but where is it ? 8 THE SCREECH OWL Francis Gilleney “Studious he sat with all his books around.” Basketball 1, 2, 8, 4 ; Track 2, 8, 4 ; Vice- President 3 ; Football 4. Best of luck to you, “Skike.” Are you going to take a P. G. course next year? Agnes Glebus “Life is a jest and all things show it; I thought it once, but now I know it.” We never see Agnes without her shadow. Who? You tell us, Agnes. Ruth Grunwald “For she is jes’ the quiet kind Whose natures never vary, Like streams that keep a summer mind Snow-hid in January.” We don’t know much about Ruth but we won’t be fooled. Ruth Heinonen “If music be the food for love, play on.” Accompanist for Music Course; Accom- panist for “Riding Down the Sky” 2. Ruth is a quiet, efficient girl but she does make some exceptions to the rule. Again we won’t be fooled. Ralph Hellawell “More matter with less art.” Class President 3; Class Treasurer 4; Track 4. We know this fellow as “Rudy.” Can he sing? Oh, yes, but we won’t say what. 9 THE SCREECH OWL Mary Higgins “A merry heart maketh a cheerful coun- tenance.” Mary is the girl we usually see coming into the classroom about 7:59 each morning. In spite of it all we know her by her smile. Aino Holt “A light heart lives long.” Aino is a fair-haired girl from the Com- mercial Departmen t. Some business man will be in luck. Do you know your short- hand “out-lines,” Aino? Michael Ignachuck “I propose to fight it out on this line — ” Physical Education Exhibition 2; Inter- class Football 2 ; A. A. Social Commit- tee 3, 4; Track 1, 2, 3, 4; Inter-class Basketball 2; Football 2, 3, 4; Cap- tain 4. Kalervo Kansanniva “La fortune favorise Ton qui a la deter- mination.” Inter-class Football 3; Class Play 2, 3; French Play 4 ; School Play 4 ; Christ- mas Social Committee 4 ; Class Pro- phecy 4 ; Speaker, Graduation Night 4. The smiling Sphinx of the class — Ka- lervo. Actor, too, what? Tony Kavaleski “Let nothing come between me and sports.” Basketball 2, 3 ; Soccer 2 ; Physical Edu- cation Exhibition 1, 2 ; Inter-class Football 2, 3; Inter-class Basketball 1, 2, 3, 4 ; Track 1, 2, 3, 4. 10 THE SCREECH OWL Alice Kitowicz “The village athlete you here will meet ; In all kinds of sports she knows no defeat. ,, Hockey 1, 2, 3, 4; Hockey Captain 4; Basketball 1, 2, 3. Keep on where you left off and you will win, Alice. Loraine Koch “Vouloir c’est pouvoir.” Class Play Competition 1, 2; Christmas Social Committee 4 ; A. A. Social Com- mittee 3; Junior Prom Committee 3; Screech Owl, Assistant Editor 4 ; School Play 4; French Play 4; Glee Club 3 ; Speaker, Graduation Night 4. Olga Kozak “Here, men are faithful to their books But Olga’s faithful to their looks.” “Breezin’ Along” 4. Olga proved some dancer in the show “Breezin’ Along.” Are you goiing to be on the stage, Olga? Esther Launola “A good disposition that gold cannot buy.” “La-la” gives one the idea that she is bashful and retiring — but not she! She owns a car and hasn’t been known to stall — yet. What we would like to know is what happened the night of May 6, 1933, between 12 and 1 o’clock? Marion Ledgard “Opus omnia vincit.” Christmas Social Committee 3; Junior Prom Committee 3; Usher 3; Glee Club 3. Marion, of the cheerful disposition, often sets the class laughing with some orig- inal bit of thinking. 11 THE SCREECH OWL Adam Mariani “Disturb not that which is quiet.” “Riding Down the Sky” 2. Adam is another classmate that does not make himself known. I guess we under- stand why, though. Howard Marsden “Let knowledge grow from more to more.” Sprig Jig Committee 4. Howie, of the long legs, has secrets, we know, but it’s as difficult to discover them as it is to match his stride. Beatrice Mason “A little knowledge is a dangerous thing.” Beatrice hasn’t shown her colors much, as yet, and how we would like to know what those colors are! Oh well, maybe this is just the beginning. Genevieve Mikijaniec “Make thy presence known.” We often see Genevieve’s name in one of the popular local papers. Publicity is great while it lasts. George Murphy “Your wit makes others witty.” Sprig Jig Committee 4 ; Class Will 4. George, another one of lengthy extremi- ties, is one of the class wits. It is always “Laugh, clown laugh.” What is better? 12 THE SCREECH OWL Veronica Piecewicz “Pleasant in manner and speech.” To those who know her intimately, Veronica is the personification of friend- liness. She always has a cheery smile of welcome for us and especially for that somebody who lives in Hudson — maybe it’s Marlboro. John Pozerycki “My crown is in my heart, not on my head, A crown it is that seldom kings enjoy.” Basketball 2, 3, 4; Physical Education Exhibition 3 ; Glee Club 4 ; School Play 4 ; Football 2, 3, 4 ; Baseball 3, 4 ; Com- mencement Exercises Committee 4. Puzzie gave us all a pleasant surprise in “Breezin’ Along.” The man of the hour! Helen Priest “Some think the world is full of fun and frolic, And so do I.” Social Committees 4; Field Hockey 1; Operetta 3 ; Commencement Exercises Committee 4. Can Helen read and write shorthand? Ask her ! Another thing you might ask her is what the letters before the signa- tures 1, 2 and 3 represent. Doris Reynolds “With her brown eyes in floods of laughter.” Field Hockey 2 ; Prom Committee 3. A cheery call, a flash of even, white teeth, smiling brown eyes, and what have you? “Dolly!” She always has a nice word, for and about everybody. Loads of luck, and success to you! Walter Saarela “And unextinguished laughter shakes the skies.” Football 1, 2; Assistant Manager 3; Baseball 1, 2; Necktie Committee 3; Play Scenery 1, 2, 3. A bang, a crash, a roar, and the school knows Walter has arrived. The bane of the faculty, Walter provides plenty of excitement. THE SCREECH OWL 13 Henry Salmela “Men of few words are the best men.” Physical Education Exhibition 1, 2, 3; Operetta 3 ; Soccer 2 ; Inter-class Foot- ball 2, 3 ; Track 3, 4 ; Glee Club 4. Henry, when he isn’t fishing or playing in an orchestra, lives the life of a butter- fly. Aune Salo “I love a good hot argument.” Physical Education Exhibition 1 ; Class Play Committee 3 ; Hockey 3, 4 ; Basketball 1, 2, 3, 4; President of Character Club; Speaker, Graduation Night 4. Aune, of the passionate tongue, can’t help but succeed. Pity her poor targets ! San do Savello “I know a trick worth two of that !” What would English IVD be like without the illustrious Mr. Savello? He’s a boy that can go you one better every time. He attends baseball games, not so much to see the game as to — . Ask him about the night the umbrella was used for other purposes than to keep off the rain ! ! ! Joseph Schnair “One hour’s sleep before midnight is worth two after.” ??? Class Play 2; Ring Committee 3; Junior Prom Committee 3; Christmas Social Committee 3, 4 ; A. A. Social Commit- tee 3, 4; Baseball Manager 3; Sprig Jig Committee 4 ; Commencement Ex- ercises Committee 4. Jennie Shymonowicz “Sometimes grave and sometimes gay — But we like her anyway.” Inter-class Basketball 4. Jennie is one of the high-lights of the Commercial Department. Although at- tending diligently to her studies she found time to play basketball and helped the girls of ’33 gain the championship of the school. Keep up the good work ! 14 THE SCREECH OWL Helen Sienkiewicz “I’ll put a girdle ’round about the earth in forty minutes.” Basketball 1, 2, 3, 4. Whenever one sees a tall, well dressed, smart looking girl, you can be sure it’s Helen. She has been one of our best girl basketball players and has been out- standing in more ways than one. Dorothy Sluyski “We meet thee like a pleasant thought.” “Dot” is a vivacious girl from the Com- mercial Room who always has a pleasant word for everybody. Her activities out of school have been quite “in the shade” until the present time — we’d like to get a few pointers on “How Young Ladies Should Act in Cars,” as seen by “Puzzy, Jr.” Edward Smith “Our lives are measured by the deeds we do.” Inter-class Baseball 1, 2, 3; Inter-class Football 1, 2, 3; Inter-class Basketball 1, 2, 3, 4 ; Assistant Manager Baseball 4; Manager, Football 4. Willis Stockbridge “The essence of humor is sensibility.” Class Play 1, 2, 3; Assistant Hockey Manager 3; Student Council 1; Junior Prom Committee 3 ; Baseball Manager 4; Orchestra 2, 3, 4; French Play 4; Screech Owl 2, 3 ; Commencement Exercises Committee 4 ; Solo, Gradua- tion Night 4. Elin Swanson “Sweets to the sweet.” Operetta 3; Junior Prom Committee 3; Social Committee 3; School Play 4; Student Council 4 ; Vice-President of Senior Class; Commencement Exer- cises Committee 4. Elin, so demure, what’s the secret of your success? THE SCREECH OWL 15 Millard Swett “I like work, it fascinates me, I can sit and look at it for hours.” Class Play Committee 3; Junior Pr om Committee 3; Sprig Jig Committee 4. Millard, the incorrigible of the class — what a problem for the teachers ! How’s the new car ? Ellen Taival “Of all felicities the most charming is that of a firm and gentle friendship.” Screech Owl 4. Ellen’s quotation fits her perfectly; it describes her to a nicety. We can say no more without its being superfluous. John Thompson “He with his thunder: and till then who knew the force of those dire arms.” Physical Education Exhibition 3; Sprig Jig Committee 4; Operetta 3; Junior Prom Committee 3 ; School Play 4 ; Track 2, 3, 4 ; Football 1, 2, 3, 4. Mary Tierney “Gentle in manner, firm in reality.” Field Hockey 2. Mary is a quiet, shy girl from the Com- mercial Department. Her unassuming ways have won her many friends and though she seldom “steps out” (to our knowledge) we know there is a soft spot in her heart for a certain somebody. Mary Tobin “Good things come in little packages.” Student Council 4 ; Class Prophecy 4. Some people think “Bimp” is quiet and shy, but after work on Fridays and Sat- urdays — !!! perhaps “Joe” knows some- thing about it. Mary is the typical Irish Colleen of Maynard High. 16 THE SCREECH OWL Stella Wallet “Silence is sweeter than speech.” Inter-class Basketball. A shy smile, deep eyes, and you recog- nize Stella. In school, at least, she is quiet and actually appears to be bashful. However, she has been seen with J. K. several times and not in the least bash- ful. Live and learn — eh, Stella? Howard Weaving “Gather ye rosebuds while ye may.” Junior Prom Committee 3 ; Usher 3. Howie is one of the social lights of the class; find Howie and you’ve found a dance, find a dance and you’ve found Howie. And, of course, Anna. Ruth Weir “Such a whirlpool in her head of fun and mischief.” Junior Prom Committee 3; Inter-class Basketball 2 ; Screech Owl Staff 1, 2, 3, 4 ; Speaker, Graduation Night 4. Ruth is a girl that can be in any activity going on, stay up all night (if necessary) and yet come to school in the best of spirits with all her studies prepared. Stanley Wojtkiewicz “Your name is great in mouths of wisest censure.” Class Treasurer 1; Junior Prom Com- mittee 3; Inter-class Basketball 1, 2, 3, 4 ; Interclass Football 1, 2, 3 ; Christ- mas Social Committee 3, 4 ; Baseball 4 ; Class Play 1, 2, 3 ; Screech Owl 2, 3, 4 ; Class Gifts 4. Vivian Wolfe “Out upon it! I have loved Three whole days together And am like to love three more If it prove fair weather.” Field Hockey 2 ; Junior Team 3. Very little more needs to be said except that “Viv” seems to be quiet and that the big reason for this is a former foot- ball captain. THE SCREECH OWL 17 Paul R. Wilson “There is no outward sign of courtesy that does not rest on a deep moral foundation.” Class Play Committee 1 ; Stage Manager, Class Play 2, 3; Sprig Jig Committee 4; Decorations, Junior Prom 3; Christmas Social 3, 4; Senior Reception 4 ; Commencement Exercises Commit- tee 4 ; Tennis Team 3, 4, Manager 4 , Speaker, Class Night 4 ; Student Council 2, 4, President 4 ; Screech Owl 3, 4, Editor 4 ; President of Senior Class. Miss Morgan “Her voice was ever soft, Gentle and low, an excellent thing in woman.” For Miss Morgan, who has labored with us and for us so painstakingly and so cheerfully, our only thought is one of deepest appreciation. Our sincere regards and best wishes are with her always. Reno Aho “Silence covers deep thought.” Inter-class Football 1, 2; Football 3, 4. Reno is one of the bashful members of the class who never make them- selves noticed but are none the less present. They fall the hardest. Herbert Bishop “Knowledge is power.” Sprig Jig Committee 4 ; A. A. Social Committee 4. Herbie is “X,” the unknown quan- tity. However, the unknown quan- tities often produce the most start- ling results. Richard Archer “Never yet had Heaven appeared so blue, nor earth so green.” Dick, one of the athletes of the school, does not use his running ability in getting to school in the morning. Olga Bobik “My tongue within my lips I rein, For who talks much must talk in vain.” Field Hockey 1. Olga is one of those girls that say very little but when she has some- thing to say it means a lot. We are sure that the future has happiness in store for you. Good luck! Reino Grondahl “He could on either side dispute, confute, change hands and st 11 confute.” Basketball 1, 2; Baseball 2, 3, 4; Football 3, 4 ; Track 4 ; Class Play 1; Class Treasurer 2; Student Council 4; Physical Education Exhibition 2; Glee Club ' 4; Speaker, Graduation Night 4. Walter Hanna “Bid me discourse, I will enchant thine ear.” Walter, our gifted orator, of thee we sing! When we think of the famous Jimmy Durante proboscis, what can we write? Happy blow- ings! 18 THE SCREECH OWL Dorothea Hannon “As full of spirit as the month of May.” French Play 4 ; Physical Education Exhibition 1. Dorothea is thought of in conjunc- tion with French, Latin, and Art. Don’t forget, Dorothea, “Keep your tints separate, no blending.” Edwin Helander “Hang sorrow ! Care’ll kill a cat.” Competition Play 2. If you see some red in the air it’s no fire but “Red’s” hair. He is one of the few boys that really blush. Show us how, will you “Red?” Oiva Hintsa “All men have eyes, but few the gift of penetration.” Inter-class Basketball 3, 4 ; Track 3, 4 ; Football 2, 3, 4. Oiva, the great big little man of the football squad, always gets com- plete attention when he begins a recitation ; you never can tell what’ll come out ! Tauno Kangas “Then he will talk — good gods! how he will talk!” Inter-class Basketball 1 ; Soccer 2 ; Physical Education Exhibition 1, 2, 3 ; Glee Club 4. Tauno, the future Einstein, l : ves in the 4th dimension, and confounds the teachers with his original methods. More power to you, Biffo ! Ralph Lent “A gentleman and a student.” Baseball 4. Ralph is quiet but he is coming out on the surface. Do you expect to take a P. G. in the Commercial Room? Lempi Marjama “Isn’t cupid a knavish lad, Thus to make poor females mad?” Lempi, do you like the underclass “men?” Please don’t get angry, we are just a little curious. John Murphy “Mirth is a sure cure for all troubles.” Operetta 3; Class Play 3; Inter- class Basketball 2, 3 ; Student Council 1 ; Usher 2 ; Physical Education Exhibition 1, 2, 3, 4; Christmas Social Committee 4 ; School Play 4 ; A. A. Social Com- mittee 4; Screech Owl 4; Foot- ball 3, 4. Uuno Norgoal “Now — I’ll say something to re- member.” Uuno, who never causes a commo- tion, — when are you going to make some excitement? Stella Novick “On time all the time.” Stella, who has graduated one of the highest in ranks, is well-liked by all the pupils. Sylvia Nyholm “Happy-go-lucky.” Basketball 1, 2, 3, 4 ; Basketball Captain 3 ; Hockey 3, 4 ; Screech Owl Staff, 2, 3, 4; Junior Prom Committee, 3; “Breezin’ Along ’ 4. This seems to be ’nuff said. John O’Toole “He has the sixth sense — a sense of humor.” Football 4; Sprig Jig Committee 4; Ring Committee 3. The liveliest boy of his class, John is always coming out with some bit of humor that makes even the teachers crack a smile. 19 THE SCREECH OWL Bennie Piecewicz “Silence is one great art of conver- sation — Track 2. Bennie has caused no commotion as yet, but that can’t go on forever. When he begins — ! Harvey Priest “What’s the use of worrying.” Inter-class Football 3. Harvey has the Chinese philosophy of life — let come what may, remain calm and unflurried; he is excited by nothing, not even by taking charge of a room. Charles Servio “It is the quiet worker who suc- ceeds.” One of the most quiet boys in his class and yet — who can tell — he might be of the “Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde” variety. Bashful boys are rare now-a-days, and even “Char- lie” is preparing for a quiet (?) home life — he’s taking up manual training. Walter Smith “I mind my compass and my way.” We never see much of Walter out- side of school. What is the secret? Do you find places to go, and things to do? Tauno Tamminen “The secret of success is constancy to purpose.” President of Sophomore Class. Tauno, whom we remember as one of the high-lights of the class, has returned after a two years’ absence. What do you think of it, Tauno? Winnifred Tobin “Those about her, From her shall learn the perfect ways of honor.” Vice-President of Junior Class, Class Secretary 4 ; Commence- ment Exercises Committee 4. If anyone in the Class of ’33 attains success, “Winnie” will be the one. Her last year at school has been especially difficult, as she has worked in the afternoons. Yet in spite of this she is seldom blue, al- ways does her best, and has been known to take time out with with a particular ex-Senior. Joseph Trebendis “Measure your mind’s height by the shade it casts.” Student Council. “Joe” is a shining example of effi- ciency from the Commercial De- partment and has the reputation of being a boy who seldom smiles. He is quiet and supposedly never does any “stepping.” Keep up the good work, “Joe.” (In more ways than one.) Toivo Wick “He who says little has nothing to answer for.” Toivo seldom says anything and to some he seems to be continually dreaming about something or other. Whether this sleepy aspect comes from the thoughts of great things to be done or feminarum, we must remind you that — all great men were dreamers. 20 THE SCREECH OWL Toini Williams “Loathing pretense she did with cheerful will What others talked of while their hands were still.” Christmas Social Committee 4; Junior Prom Committee 3; Commencement Exercises Committee 4. Toini, who is always on the spot when there is any work to be done for the class, is one whom we will always re- member. Best of luck to you, Toini! By H. R. B., S. D. N. and P. R. W.

Mary Tobin without a smile. George Murphy without a yodel. Paul Wilson as a character actor. Ruth Weir without Puzzy or Ralph. Ellen Taival saying darn. Snubby not saying “gosh,” “darn,” “the brute.” Ralph Lent playing a bass viol. Ruth Heinonen without a piano. Stanley Wojtkiewicz writing poetry. Saarela without his ark. Joe Arcisz hurrying. Helander: Does this train stop at Tenth Street? Stranger: Yes, watch me and get off one station before I do. Helander: Thanks. Grondahl : Waiter, have the orches- tra play “Carmen” while I eat this beefsteak. Waiter: Yes, sir, but why? Grondahl: I want to hear the To- reador Song ; I feel like a bull fighter. Savello: So you collect antiques. Skike: Yes, I even have a very rare typewriter which was owned by Na- poleon. Savello: But they didn’t have type- writers in Napoleon’s day.

Puzzy: So that he can reach the ground. Boss: Before I hire you, you will have to pass an intelligence test. Rita: Intelligence test? Why, the advertisement said you wanted a stenographer. Mrs. C. : Brad, did you take a bath ? Brad: No — is there one missing? Saarela : I think I’ve got a flat tire. Dot B. : That makes us even. Elin : This lipstick is a novelty.
