THE SCREECH OWL 23 Priscilla Kane — “Life is just a bowl of cherries ’ Basketball (1), “Screech Owl” (4), Social Committee (4). Ever cheerful and friendly is Priscilla. Need we say more for an ideal secretary? Robert Katvala — “Steady plodding- is his secret.” Student Council (2), Track (2) (3) (4), Reception Committee (4), Class Night Speaker (4). Tall, blonde, and quiet — that’s Robert. Some say he is tall, blonde, and not so — oh well! Esther Kauppila — “A ray of sunshine has a right to penetrate anywhere.” Orchestra (1) (2) (3( (4), Valentine Dance Committee (4). Esther’s droll bits of humor amaze and delight all of us. She is exceptionally good-natured and friendly. But Seniors take heed — she is interested in a Freshman! Elenor King — “She relished a joke and rejoiced in a pun.” Orchestra (1) (2) (3) (4), Banquet Committee (4). Elenor is the only girl who is taking Trig. She likes the class a great deal — but what does she mean by class ? Elizabeth King — “Good things come in small packages.” Class Night Committee (4). Betty is the little “happy-go-lucky” damsel from the Commercial Room. Her rippling laughter is heard wherever she goes.

22 THE SCREECH OWL John Jakusik — “They shall not pass.” Football (4), Basketball (2), Banquet Committee (4). One of Maynard High’s blocks of granite on defense and tiger on offense. Kenneth Jarvinen — “Hark, my merry comrades call me.” Track (1), Baseball Manager (4), Reception Committee (4). “Kebu” is one of these quiet boys, but we have heard rumors. His girl friends seem to get him angry at times. In spite of this he devotes much of his time to the welfare of our baseball team. Kenneth Johnson — “My heart is like a singing bird.” Student Council (1), Dance Committee (3), Boys’ Chorus (4), Banquet Committee (4). Everyone knows that “Kenny” has a weakness for Model T’s and Scotch plaids. But what about that Gretchen in Sweden, Kenny ? Donald Jones — “I love to dance !” Donald is a book-worm, but we won’t tell you because he doesn’t want anyone to know. He’s tall, dark, and not bad to look at. He has been observed at many a dance, especially out of town. Do they have better orchestras there, Donald, or is there another reason ? Taisto Kallio Basketball (1) (2), Banquet Committee (4). Taisto is the big, silent man who was the “Surprise of the Life- time” at the Junior Prom. Remember, girls?

24 THE SCREECH OWL Nicholas Kizik — “He ran the course true.” Track (2) (3) (4), Football (3) (4), Valentine Dance Com- mittee (4). Nick is always dependable on the track and in school. He looks like a winner to us. Paul Koski — “The energy of youth, the power of age.” Track (1), Valentine Dance Committee (4). Paul is one of the good-looking boys of the class. He is liked by everyone and can he dance! A certain sophomore girl can teil you more. Interested? Paul Kozak — “All the world’s a stage.” Valentine Dance Committee (4). Paul is the candy-seller in a local theater. His pleasing disposi- tion and continual good nature have endeared him to his class- mates. Broncia Kurowski — “Good fortune guide thee.” Private Dance Committee (4). Broncia and Stella Novicki are inseparable. May their friendship go on forever. Broncia is a “great” girl and not as quiet as one thinks. How about it, Broncia ? John Labowicz — “Whistle while you work.” Basketball (2) (3) (4), Reception Committee (4). John is the other half of May and Labowicz, Inc. We wonder if John really is the bashful boy he appears to be. How about it, John ?
