THE SCREECH OWL 19 Donald Hansen Football (3, 4), Track (1, 2), Basketball (1, 2), Student Council (1, 4), Picture Committee (4), General Committee (4), Aviation Club (4), Slide Rule Club (4), Screech Owl (4), Class Night Speaker (4). Without a doubt Donald is one of the most capable boys in the class, especially when it comes to a problem in physics or trig. It is a well known fact that women are positively “taboo” on his list; so he spends his spare time building model airplanes and taking pictures. He must be congratulated for his acceptance in the Navy Air Corps. Beatrice Hatch Senior Girls’ Chorus. “Bea” is one of the prettiest and best-dressed girls of the class. When school ends she hopes to join her sister at that well-known defense plant in Waltham. At present her spare time is taken up by a tall, dark and handsome Junior. Margaret Hoffman Student Council (1), Picture Committee (4), Graduation Speaker (4), Senior Girls’ Chorus. “Margie” is a girl that everyone would appreciate having as a friend. She has one of the most pleasant personalities that anyone could hope to attain. We all know this when she flashes one of her gay smiles across the candy counter every day at recess. Leita Holly All Dance Committees (1, 2, 3, 4), Junior Prom Committee (3), Dramatic Club (3, 4), Senior Girls’ Chorus (4). Leita, the future actress of the class, already spends her eve- nings answering fan mail. We’d like to have a peek at it some time. Bernice Koch Senior Girls’ Chorus. Bernice is well liked by all her classmates. She wants to be a hairdresser, and we can see now that she has put in quite a few hours of practice on her own shining locks.

18 THE SCREECH OWL Gladys Fraser Screech Owl 4), Honorary Member of the Women’s Club (4), Gradu- ation Speaker (4), Senior Girls’ Chorus. Efficiency in its fullest is exemplified by Gladys. A few years from now you may hear about this little “Miss from Maynard High” being in Washington helping to pass some laws. With her ability, how can she help doing well? Arthur Gilman Basketball (1, 2, 3, 4), Orchestra (1, 2, 3, 4), Aviation Club (4), Commencement Speaker (4). “Art” is a great scholar and has a fine personality. He is a whiz in all his classes and plans to enter Harvard. Bet he will get all A’s, too! Frances Graceffa Senior Girls’ Chorus. Frances has everything a good secretary needs. She is always well dressed and her work is always done neatly. We envy her her pleasant personality. Elvira Greeno Basketball (1, 2, 3), Field Hockey (2, 3, 4). Elvira’s wit and ready laughter make her popular throughout the class. There’s never a dull moment in the Co mmercial Room and on the hockey field when she is around. We only hope she will never lose her youthful spirits. Bernice Greenaway Field Hockey (1, 2), Student Council (2), Social Committees (2, 4), Dramatic Club (2, 3, 4), Screech Owl (3, 4), Junior Women’s Club (3 ,4), General Committee (4). Bernice is a “femme” that everyone remembers, once they meet her. If there is a “lull in the air,” just call on this attractive blonde and then things will start to happen. She is going to be a nurse, and there will be many who will not want to get well, once she comes to take care of them. Good luck in your profession, Bernice!

20 THE SCREECH OWL John Kulik Orchestra (1, 2, 3, 4) John is one of those quiet boys who are always seen but never heard. We usually see him with a smile on his face. Keep your good humor and you’ll do all right, John. Helen Kuprianchik Dramatic Club (4), Screech Owl (4), Graduation Speaker (4). The perfect commercial student! It is very seldom that we find Helen idle. Her ability and efficiency will surely carry her far in the business world. And, added to all her other accomplishments, she won the Valedictory! Wayne Lampila Waino, the class baby, has the cutest dimples, and my, does he blush! His favorite hobby seems to be hunting — for what? Earl Le Moine Baseball (1, 2, 3), Orchestra (1, 2, 3), Aviation Club (4), General Committee (4). Earl is one of the quiet boys of the class — except at the hockey games. He plans to enter Northeastern University to be a chemical engineer. Next to his books come sports, for .tiarl is an ardent baseball and hockey fan. Ruth Liverman Dramatic Club (4), Screech Owl (4), Senior Girls’ Chorus. Ruth is as “gay as a lark” at all times. Whenever you pass the Commercial Department and hear a contagious laugh, you can be sure it is Ruth. Her favorite pastime is dancing, in which she participates frequently, especially Wednesday nights. Her ambition is to be a secretary, and we know that she will make a good one.
