Although “Bull” left us for a year to attend Lawrence Academy, his activities show that he is very popular with his classmates. “Bull” would like to make dentistry his future work and is now making arrangements to enter Dartmouth College. Wilson Cuttell — “Thou will not live in vain.” Football (2) (3) (4), Track (1) (2) (3) (4), Basketball (3) (4), Christmas Social Committee (3). “Woody” is one of the speed merchants of the Senior Class and would be a credit to any track team. His interest lies in machines, and he wishes to make them his profession. We hope you do as well in fixing cars, “Woody,” as you have in track. We know they’ll go, as you did. Alfred Davis — “Genius needs no tools.” Student Council (1) (2) (4), Poster Prize: Anchor and Ark Glee Club (4), “Al” is a positive genius for making big things out of nothing at all. With this habit he is sure to make a success of whatever he tries. Charles D’Agata — “For swiftness did I sue.” Football (1) (2) (3) (4), Track (1) (2) (3) (4), Basketball (1) (2) (3) (4), Junior Prom Committee (3), Christmas Dance Com- mittee (3). Charlie, as you can see by his record, is one of Maynard’s stellar athletes. His wish is to attend Brighton Academy and from there go on to some college. For his future work, Charlie would like to be a newspaper reporter or a football coach. We know by your past football ability that you will make a great coach, Charlie. Continue with the good work, and we’ll keep track. Juliet D’Errico — “Not what we think, but what we do, makes saints of us.” Everything Juliet does is done well. Her cheerful smile and will- ing service at the candy counter have certainly brought many extra nickels to the A. A. Her ambition is to be a nurse. It’s t oo bad candy isn’t good for sick people, Juliet, or perhaps you could sell them some.

THE SCREECH OWL 17 Fred Boothroyd — “The- farmer’s care makes the field bear.” To look at Fred, one would never realize what his high ambitions are. He wants to be a “hog rancher.” “It Ain’t What You Do, Fred, it’s the Way That You Do It.” Alice Byrne — “Some think the world is made for fun and frolic, and so do I.” Alice is one of the jolliest members of the class. She wants to be an American Red Cross Nurse, and we’re sure she’ll make a perfect “Rose of No-man’s Land.” Her dimples and good humor will be a sufficient cure for any illness. Joseph Catania — “Believe that you have it and you have it.” Band (3) (4). The Gene Krupa of Maynard High who has given a sample of his skill at the drums during a few local dances. Keep up the good work, Joe, and you may have your own band. Nancy Costanzo — “Quietus make, her might.” Nancy is another very silent damsel from the Commercial Room. Though she keeps us in the dark concerning herself, we feel that she’ll succeed in all her undertakings. Mildred Coburn — “Nothing great was ever achieved with- out enthusiasm.” Field Hockey (3) (4). Mildred wants to be a physical education teacher, and if ability counts, she has certainly proved her worth by her contributions to basketball and field hockey. Since Mildred has acquired her car she gets around too fast for us. Step forward, Milly, and tell us what goes on when you and Jane step out.

THE SCREECH OWL 19 Edward Donahue — “Speech is silver, silence is golden.” Baseball (3), Third Prize, Public Speaking Contest (4), “Screech Owl” (4). Although “Big Ed,” as he is known to his friends, is a fine speak- er, he believes in silence. His voice, augmented by his singing the good old songs in school and at home, should make even Nelson Eddy blush with envy. We all like his quiet congeniality. Charlotte Duckworth — “Thou art fairer than all else that “Screech Owl” (4). Charlotte is very demure — in school. She specializes in letter writing — and the destination could be Maine ? Couldn’t it, Charlotte ? Helen Dzerkacz — “Like rich in a variety of opulence.” Senior Private Dance (4), Student Council (2), Secretary (2), Vice President (3) (4), Picture Committee (4), Freshmen and Sophomore Play (2), Ring Committee (3), Prom Committee (3), All Social Committees (2) (3) (4), Banquet Committee (4), Class Night Speaker (4), Reception Committee (4). A most sophisticated lady and well liked! Her salesmanship will aid her in her chosen business career. She works industriously in the Commercial Room and is already a private secretary. Helen hasn’t far to go to reach success. James Eaton — “Who looks not before, finds himself be- hind.” Football (2) (3) (4), Baseball (3), Basketball (2) (3), Ring Com- mittee (3), Reception Committee (4), Halloween Social (3), Sun- light Hop Committee (3), Junior Prom Committee (3), Social Committee (4), Banquet Committee (4). Jim has traveled more than any other member of the class. He claims he can drive from Maynard to Medford with his eyes closed. What made us think of that, Jim? Priscilla Edwards — “She taketh delight in music.” Poster Prize: Anchor and Ark Glee Club (4). Priscilla has a fine sense of humor which is readily displayed. She is especially interested in art and classical music, and her chief desire is to become a nurse.
