24 THE SCREECH OWL Edwin Sarvela Football (2, 4), Basketball (1, 2, 3, 4), Student Council (2), Screech Owl (3), Dramatic Club (3), All Social Committees (1, 2, 3, 4), Junior Prom Committee (3), Senior General Committee (4). This tall, blond, and goodlooking chap, “Sammy,” can be seen every day driving one of the Co-op delivery trucks and at night can be found parked in front of a certain house on Concord Street. We know he’ll always be on the “March-ant” ready to go. Nancy Sealey Orchestra (1, 2, 3, 4), Cheer Leader (4), Junior Women’s Club (2, 3, 4), Dramatic Club (2, 3, 4), Senior Girls’ Chorus (4), Basketball (3) . In this little lady there can be found great talent. Her pals will tell you that when she lets herself go on the dance floor she is Astaire’s equal, and by the use of a dishpan and a couple of sticks she becomes a second Gene Krupa. Marian Sheridan Screech Owl (1, 2, 3, 4), Editor (4), Class Vice-President (2), Junior Women’s Club (2, 3, 4); Dramatic Club (3, 4), Ring Com- mittee (3), Junior Prom Committee (3), All Dance Committees (1, 2, 3, 4), Maynard Women’s Club, Honorary Membership Award (4), Student Council (4), Picture Committee (4), General Committee (4) , Graduation Speaker 4), Daughters of American Revolution, Good Citizenship Pilgrim (4). Marian, one of our most outstanding Seniors, excels not only in scholastic achievements but manages extra-curricular activities with dexterity. The Senior Class is proud of you, Marian! Marion Smith Field Hockey (1, 2, 3, 4), Basketball (1, 2, 3, 4), Cheer Leader (2), 3), Screech Owl (3, 4), Junior Prom Committee (3), Junior Women’s Club, Secretary (2, 3), Junior Women’s Club, Vice-President (4), Social Committee 1, 2, 3, 4), General Committee (4), Class Will (4). “Happy-go-lucky,” that’s Marion, who right now seems to be mortgaged by a certain Senior boy. Marion has proved to be one of our best athletes, and is also very good in her commercial studies. She’ll make a perfect secretary to ornament some office. Frank Spence Football (2, 3, 4), Basketball (1, 2), Track (4), All Dance Com- mittee (1, 2, 3, 4), Ring Committee (3), Prom Committee (3), Pic- ture Committee (4), General Committee 4), Class Night Speaker (4). “Spin” is the Beau Brummel of the class. His modest ways and generous smile captivate the girls’ hearts. Between school, M. I. T., and Edith, Frank is pretty busy. Here’s hoping you suc- ceed, Frank.

THE SCREECH OWL 23 Mary Pyszka Senior Girls’ Chorus. Ah, here is the girl with the musical fingers, who can make the old M. H. S. Auditorium rock on its foundation while she entertains during an assembly. Though she has shown her ability to do com- mercial work, her real ambition is to go to New York Conservatory of Music. Your persistence and determination, Mary, are indications of future success. Ellen Quinn Junior Women’s Club (3, 4), Senior Girls’ Chorus (4). Ellen has a certain aura of mystery surrounding her, through which very few have been able to penetrate. However, those who know her well assure you that she makes a pleasant companion. Just one look at her picture proves that. We wonder what is be- hind that smile. James Richardson Football (3), Baseball (3), Basketball (2, 3, 4), Student Council (1), All Dance Committees (1, 2, 3, 4), Class Treasurer (3), Junior Prom Committee (3), Ring Committee (3), Picture Committee (4), General Committee (4). The “General” is one of the most popular boys in school. Aside from studying, Jim spends most of his time on Great Road. He can be very serious when he wants to, but why should he want to ? Peter Salamone Picture Committee (4), Basketball (1, 2, 3, 4). “Pete” is known to his classmates as the jazzin’ jiver boy. He is not only talented in playing the clarinet, but he is also a fine basketball player. “Pete” will always be remembered as the “Romeo” of the shorthand class. Niilo Salmi Niilo is tall, blonde, and easy on the eyes. All the girls are trying to persade their mothers to trade at the Co-op so that they may see Niilo more often. He is one of the Co-op’s super salesmen and also a truckdriver. Keep on the right and under 30. We’ll be seeing a lot of you, Niilo.

f THE SCREECH OWL 25 Dorothea Spurrell Senior Girls’ Chorus. Dottie, like “Mare”, never discusses her private problems, but her main interests seem to be over at the Thursday night dances in Acton. Nice people also come from Woburn, she claims. Mary Spurrell Senior Girls’ Chorus. Mary, better known as “Mare,” is somewhat on the witty side, but despite this fact, she seldom reveals any of her personal affairs. We do know, however, that her chief interest lies in the army. You’d make a nice homemaker, “Mare.” Edwin Taylor Ed came to us in the middle of our Sophomore year, so we don’t know too much about him. His cheerful disposition and willingness to help others have made him many friends here. Kenneth Tucker Baseball (1), Dance Committee (1, 2, 3, 4), Junior Prom Committee (3), Student Council (4), Picture Committee (4), General Com- mittee (4). Ken is tall and terrific! He is one of the most popular boys of the class, as you can see by his activities. At present he is deeply interested in the Freshman Class. Just watch the way he “Spence” his time ! Laura Wasiuk Basketball (1, 2, 3), Class Treasurer (2), Social Committees (1, 2, 3, 4), Cheer Leader (3), Junior Prom Committee (3), Ring Com- mittee (3), Junior Women’s Club (3, 4), Dramatic Club (3, 4), Pic- ture Committee (4), Screech Owl (3), Assistant Editor (4), Class Gifts (4), General Committee (4), Girls’ Special Chorus (4). Laura, as you can see above, is one of the most popular girls in the class. She plans to make dental nursing a career, and we are willing to bet that a certain Junior will visit his dentist more than twice a year if Laura is the assistant.
