THE SCREECH OWL 21 Joseph Greeno Joe” is the opera star of the class. He’s well liked for his cheerful nature and ability in music. We know this ability will lead him on to unsung heights. Benjamin Gudzinowicz Student Council (1), Baseball (2) (3) (4), Basketball (1) (2) (3) (4) Capt. (4), Football Manager (4), Screech Owl (2) (3) (4) Editor (4), Senior Picture Committee, Sunlight Hop Committee (4), Senior Radio Quiz Team (4), Senior-Freshman Committee (4), Gradua- tion Night Speaker. Bennie is an unusual boy in so many ways that he can handle two things at once and handle them both well. He managed to obtain top honors at Maynard High School in a scholastic way and proved himself an expert on the baseball diamond. These, however, do not exhaust his many interests because he is now directing his attention toward lonseome frails. Annie Hamalainen Screech Owl (4). Sweet-looking Ann, who always appears so innocent on the subject of boys, has one certain Junior to think about. Although her devotion for him is unknown to others, she is frequently seen casting her big blue eyes at him whenever he passes. In her serious moments her thoughts are centered on becoming a secretary or dress-designer. Woitto Helinus Woit” is the radio enthusiast of the Senior Class. He can always be found puttering with one of his many radio sets trying to improve it. He is always cheerful and is always willing to laugh at his own jokes. Mary Hickey Basketball (1) (2) (3) (4), Field Hockey (1) (2) (3) (4) Mary has returned to Guy in spite of many unfavorable interruptions. She has finally decided that a brunette can be more magnetic than a blond. Her ambition is to run an orphange, but some think it’s housekeeping in a cottage small by a water-fall.

20 THE SCREECH OWL Russell Edwards Russell’s a quiet boy who lets his good work speak for him. He spoke out brilliantly over WORC with our quiz group in his Senior Year. Evidently he knows all the answers but performs only when asked. Joseph Fidanza The Commercials have had many moments of pleasure reading Joe’s ’’Daily Blab” which he painstakingly published weekly. His cheerful dis- position and readiness to help everyone makes him outstanding in the class. Edwin Gately Gately is a pretty quiet fellow, but we think that someday he’ll be part owner of the local Suffolk Chain Store for we still believe that actions speak louder than words. Jennie Girdziewski Field Hockey (1) (2), Basketball (1) (2) (3) (4), Junior Prom Com- mittee (3), Picture Committee (4), Screech Owl (4), Student Council (3) (4). Jennie is the kind of a girl who adds something to any gathering. She’s sure of herself, good looking, a good dresser, and a good conversationlist. D;d you know she could have an engagement ring on her finger right now if she wanted it. Torn between matrimony and business, she will follow the latter for the present. Frank Glebus Basketball (1) (2) (3) (4), Football (4). He’s tall, he’s blonde, he’s terrific — and how he can dance, girls ! Gleb’s what you might call the answer to any maiden’s prayer. But why, oh, why, does he go out of town so often for his dates.

22 THE SCREECH OWL Marion Hinds Field Hockey ( 1 ) (2). Marion would like to go to Wilfreds’ to take up hairdressing. We know she will be a success in her line, but we wonder if she noticed that HE has naturally wavy hair. Ruth Hodgess Field Hockey (1) (2) (3) (4), Ring Committee (3), Picture Committee (4), Student Council (4). Ruth is a sweet young lady and very popular with her classmates. Mass. State will be graced with her presence next year, for Ruthie plans to study to be a dietician. We know you are destined for happiness and success. Virginia Holly Virginia is one of the quiet girls in the class. She certainly will be a successful nurse as she tiptoes down long corridors marked here and there by signs reading, Quiet Please!” Peter Howanski Peier is one of the few silent persons in our class. On all occasions little, if anything, is said by Pete.” Arlene Hull Field Hockey (1) (2) (3) (4), Band (3) (4), O rchestra (2) (3) (4), Junior Ring Committee (3), Cheer Leader (2) (3) (4), Class Night Speaker (4), Basketball (1) (2) (3) (4). Lil Husky” has changed in the past year. Could this change have any- thing to do with a new influence in her life? She intends to go to The Chandler Business School next year. We know she’ll make a peppy secre- tary.
