THE SCREECH OWL 9 Frances Lorraine D’Agata 13 Acton Street Tel. No. 584 Sport that wrinkled care derides.” Basketball (1, 2, 3, 4), Field ' Hockey (1, 2, 3, 4), Captain of Hockey (4), All Dance Committees (2, 3), Cheer Leader (1, 2, 3), Screech Owl (4), Ring Com- mittee (3), Modern Language Club (4), Special Chorus (4), English Club (4), Hallowe’en Social (4). “Frannie’s” favorite pastime is sports and dancing, and her hobby is collecting autographs of famous dance bands and of actresses. Her main ambition is to be a teacher. “D’Agata” do it, Frannie. Jean Lawton Davis 8 Brooks Street “I have taken all knowledge to be my province.” Student Council (1, 3, 4), Secretary Student Council (4), Screech Owl (1, 2, 3, 4), Assistant Manager Field Hockey (3), Vice-President Class (2), Reception Committee (4), Hallowe’en Social (4), All Dance Committees (1, 2, 3), Junior Prom Committee (3), Ring Committee (3), Speaking Contest (2), Pianist (3. 4), Drum Majorette (3), Graduation Honor Speaker (4), English Club (4), Hon- orary Member of Women’s Club (4), Orchestra (3, 4), Special Chorus (4), Good Citizenship Pilgrim (4), Modern Language Club (4), Haunted Hotel (4). A beautiful song can be fitted to a beautiful girl, and Jeanie with the Light Brown Hair fits Jean to a T. She is one of our most accomplished girls and at the same time has a most obliging disposition. Her artistic works are often ex- hibited at the time of any social because she’s in universal demand by both teachers and students. For she is “Everett-y” to lend a hand. Charles Joseph De Grappo 15 Dean Street Tel. No. 586-M “Let him who knows the instrument play on it.” Orchestra (1, 2, 3, 4), Special Chorus (4), Glee Clubs (1, 2, 3), Junior Prom Committee (3). “Charlie” can best be described by a slang expression which, however, carries a lot of punch — swell. He is, in everything, typical of that adjective. He is able to do anything with his trumpet, and his cheery personality is unsurpassed by anyone in the Senior class. He is tall, dark and jovial. We’re sure that he will be able “DeGrappo” with every trouble that comes his way. Mary Elizabeth Dwinell 16 Grant Street Tel. No. 70 “I am a gay and dauntless spirit !” Haunted Hotel ( 4), Senior Banquet (4). Mollie is volatile, versatile, and decidedly vigorous. Her sunny smile, kind heart, and generous gestures and Dan Cupidian solicitude have helped many a would-be Romeo become articulate and say sweet somethings in the right direc- tion. That green cloth bag of tricks slung over her shoulder carries many a thick school volume. Mollie’s colorful performance as Gladiola Jackson, the Darktown maid in the “Haunted Hotel,” gives promise of histrionic career little short of meteoric. Howard Russell Edwards 14 Chandler Street Tel. No. 312-R “He has both might and main to do things with.” Ring Committee (3). Howie, the mystery boy of the class, is a class A advocate for most independent. He is vigorous, carefree, and very much alive. He has a decided mechanical talent and we wonder “Howie” will make out in this field. He is of medium height, very dark, and is the one truly handsome lad we have met in the halls of M. H. S. We shall always “Needham.”

8 THE SCREECH OWL Earl Haskell Carruth 13 Pleasant Street Tel. No. 583 What shall he have who has killed the deer?’ ’ Shy, gentlemanly “Curly” can be found anytime in his bedroom shining and cleaning his old guns. His collection is a fine one, and he knows the life his- tory of each gun. Earl is a natural fisher and hunter, and he spends weeks in the woods during the summer months. Forestry is his chosen career; so here’s hoping he makes many a prize “catch” in this line. Raymond Catania 149 Main Street Tel. No. 566- J “The flash and outbreak of a lively mind.” Tall, dark, and self-confident, Ray is one of the more industrious boys of our class, as can be plainly seen when he works for his father and also finds time for the strenuous pastime of roller skating. He hopes to secure a government position, and we know that he will have many honors bestowed upon him at his chosen position. Ray is well known in surrounding towns and has had many a good time at the Lake Boone Roller-Drome. Alex Chernak 63 Glendale Street Tel. No. 271 J K “One must be clever to hide one s cleverness Golf (3), Basketball (4), Picture Committee (4), Haunted Hotel (4). It is a wonder to us that Al’s time hasn’t been taken by some girl, since he possesses one of the finest personalities of any boy in the class along with good looks and a fine physique — which the feminine sex go for. A1 is one of the many fine carpenters Maynard High will send out into the world this June, and we unanimously elect you to build our houses if you choose this for your life’s work. Al’s latest accomplishments are golfing and technician on the “Haunted Hotel” staff. Elizabeth Anne Cutaia 195 Main Street “Science deep will genius fit.” Elizabeth is a quiet, but capable brunette with a good mind all her own. “Lizzie” as we better know her, has a quick, winning smile which often supplants the thoughtful expression shown here. Elizabeth excels in all her studies, but is best in science and particularly in chemistry. We are sure she will succeed, for as a chemist, she must know the formula. Helen Cuttell 36 Walnut Street Tel. No. 676-W “Hail to thee, blithe spirit !” Junior Prom Committee (3), All Social Committees (3), Ring Committee (3), Thanksgiving Social (4), Modern Language Club (4), Sunlight Hop Committee (3, 4), Student Council (4), Screech Owl (4), Spring Social Committee (4), English Club (4), Special Chorus (4), Class Outing, Chairman (4), Haunted Hotel (4). Curly-haired-blonde and blushing — yet spirited, Helen is ofte n late, but well worth waiting for — always taking things as they come. Her “he” is an invita- tion to friendship. She and Elena, almost inseparable, have now arranged to be apart a few nights of the week. We “Grant” you this but “Sims” when?

10 THE SCREECH OWL Guy Vernon Emro, Jr. 138 Waltham Street Tel. No. 202 “Modest and courteous all the live-long day.” Grey-sweatered, eager Guy is never seen without his flashing smile, which draws friends like a magnet. He hopes to follow in his father’s footsteps and go to sea. We are sure that he will sail right along toward his goal, although we have never seen Em-ro a boat. Marie Teresa Flaherty 52 Main Street Tel. No. 158 “The early morning hours do find me at my books.” Freshman-Sophomore Dance (1), Sophomore Dance (2), Screech Owl (2, 3), Assistant Editor (4), Ring Committee (3), English Club (4), Sunlight Hop (3, 4), Prom Committee (3), All Social Committees (3), Field Hockey (1, 2, 3, 4), Modern Language Club (4), Sp.ing Social (4), Honorary Member Women’s Club (4), Special Chorus (4), Haunted Hotel (4), Class Will (4). Tall, dignified, and vivacious Marie is surely one of the most popular and well- liked girls in our Alma Mater. Her activities seem to be faithfully confined to studies and to school doings, but she likes to cook, and from what we hear a “Weston” is her specialty. She is often found dreaming with her mind at sea because her mind is at the “Doc’s.” David Joseph Foley 7 Sherman Street Tel. No. 477 “Zeus hates busy bodies and those zoho do too much.” Baseball (1, 2, 3, 4), Class Will (4). This tall, light-complexioned, good-looking chap can be seen leisurely rambling from one class to the next during periods, without a worry in the world. Davy likes to ride the motorcycle and see how fast it will go. He has caught all our pitchers in the past four years, . and he “Shirley” is one of our best “catch hers.” Thomas John Foley 18 Brooks Street Tel. No. 683-M “Speed and strength and mind combined.” Track (1, 2, 3, 4), Captain (4), Ring Committee (3), Reception Committee (4). Tommy is tall and dark, and has a superb build. He is a speed demon on the track and is almost unbeatable. There was only one time when he was beaten, and that was when he was “Chase an’ Sanborn.” We are pretty sure he won’t be dated. Charles Herbert Fouratt 10 Harriman Court Tel. No. 335-M “O life’s a pudding full of plums, and a man of pluck.” Football (2, 3, 4), Basketball (1, 2, 3, 4), Screech Owl (2, 3, 4), Freshman- Sophomore Social Committee, A. A. Social Committee, 2nd A. A. Social Com- mittee, Orchestra (1, 2, 3, 4), Special Boys’ Chorus (4), Haunted Hotel (4). Gallant Charlie, the hero of the Milford football game, has one of the most brilliant personalities of the class. He is always ready with a grin and a pun for everybody. He can act as well as sing and play a guitar; so he is quite a versatile individual. This will help him quite a bit toward his chosen occupation: a band leader. Charles is an easy fellow to follow.
