The Screech Owl 19 Frank Downey Football (3) ; Basketball (3) (4) ; Outing Committee (4). “Frankie” remains in our minds as an outstanding foot- ball player. He has the will to win, and is bound to succeed. He certainly can “step” on a dance floor, too. Helen Dutkowski Senior Play (4) ; French Soiree (4) ; Speaker, Gradua- tion. Helen is another member of our class who wants to be a nurse. Her pleasant manner and cheerful smile will do more for her patients than medicine. Sophie Dzerkacz Usher, “The Good Egg” (4) ; Social Committee (4) ; Basketball (1) (2) (3) (4). Sophie is the little dark-eyed damsel from the Commer- cial Department who seems to enjoy the Friday night parties which are so much in vogue. Ask her about the one at Norma’s house. Louis Fava Senior Play. Louie’s good nature and pleasing personality have made him a host of friends. With these two qualities he can’t fail in any of his undertakings. Kaarlo Filppu Basketball (4). “Fish” is the skiing enthusiast of the Senior Class. If he undertakes all his problems as he has skiing, if he uses the same vigor and skill, he will be well worth watching for the next few years.

18 The Screech Owl Louis Colombo Football (1) (2) (3) (4) ; Co-Captain (4) ; Baseball (1) (2) (3) (4) ; Captain (4) ; Basketball (1) (2) (3) (4) ; Captain (4) ; Picture Committee (4) ; Banquet Commit- tee (4) ; Student Council, President (4). These activities records prove Louis’ ability. He pos- sesses an enviable record as an athlete at Maynard High School, and here’s hoping we’ll hear more of him in larger circles. John Creighton Track (1) (2). “Sonny” Creighton, Maynard’s bell-boy No. 1 and a swell guy, sports an engaging smile. Keep up the good work, Johnny; you’ll own that place some day. Rita Curley Basketball (1) (2) ; Hockey (1) (2) (3). Rita is an added bright spot in class with her engaging smile. There have been rumors of a certain Hudson fel- low visiting down on Pleasant Street. Ruth Cuttell Glee Club (2). Ruth’s ambition is to be a nurse for children. Lucky children to have such a sympathetic and cheerful person to take care of them ! Angelo Dipersio Track (3) ; Basketball (4). Quiet and studious in school, “Banjo” has high ambi- tions, we know. Here’s hoping you lead the pack, Angelo.

20 The Screech Owl Jean Fletcher Field Hockey (1) (2) (3). Jean is tiny, blonde, and charmingly sincere in all she does. In addition she has a lovely voice, although only a few of us are privileged to hear it. C. C. is indeed a lucky fellow! Gerald Foley “Mickey” is one of the most popular boys in school. He’s always up to something and ready for a laugh. Keep up the cheery smile and you’ll do all right, “Mick”. Royal Forssen Basketball (4). Royal is a quiet, serious fellow of whom we know very little. His ambition is to be an accountant. He should get a start by helping some of his classmates straighten out their dates. Mary Gallagher Screech Owl (4). Fun-loving Mary wants to be a good stenographer and typist. She likes roller-skating, and spends a groat deal of her time at the sport. We hear that one of the foot- ball captains haunts her house John Girdziewski Football (1) (2) (3) (4) ; Basketball (1) (2) (3) (4); Captain (1) (3). “Yike” proved to be one of our stout-hearted athletes last fall. We hear that he is also quite a dancer. How’s chances on a few tips, “Yike”?
