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”?

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.

The Screech Owl 21 Gladys Greenleaf Class Play (4) ; Speaker, Graduation. “G. B.” was a “find” for the Senior Play. If her am- bitions are not Hollywood bound, we miss our guess. Watch out, Katherine Hepburn, when Gladys arrives. Edwin Grunwald Eddie is a quiet fellow (in public) with a very pleasing personality. The least I can say of Ed is we all like him very much and look on him as a friend worth having. Edwin Gustafson Track (4). “Gus” has many friends who have penetrated his quiet exterior. He enjoys himself most in history class and likes to talk on present day politics. “Gus” intends to be an engineer. Geraldine Hatch Hockey (1) (2) (3) (4). “Gerry” seems to favor only college boys with her witty presence. She spends much of her time in waiting for the mailman; we have often wondered what those precious letters contain. Anna Higgins Screech Owl (4) ; Student Council (3) (4) ; Secretary, Student Council (4) ; Field Hockey (1) (2) (3) (4) ; Prom Committee (3) ; Ring Committee (3) ; Picture Committee (4) ; Reception Committee (4) ; Speaker, Graduation. Anna is athletic, popular, and a typical Irish colleen. The time she spends on her studies shows in her work. Her cleverness and adaptability are sure to make her an asset to any employer.
