SHIRLEY NOURSE: “SHIRL” Shirley’s wittiness and spunk have carried her through the long four years and helped greatly in our struggles through play rehearsals. Although flighty in former years, this year she really settled down and made herself a vital part of our class. Next fall will find her back at M.H.S. taking a post-graduate course in preparation for a career in nursing. RICHARD POLI: “LEFTY” “Lefty” is the boy who doesn’t have much to say. He’s quiet and shy. However, this hasn’t affected his athletic ability, for “Lefty” has been an outstanding asset in all sports, and his good sportsmanship has meant a lot to our teams. DUANE SEABORN: “DUANGO” Duane’s fine ability to take a joke was well demonstrated by his hilarious part in the Minstrel Show. His advice about the Lion’s Cage will not be forgotten for a long while. His destination next year will be Dean Academy. LEO SHIELS: “TINY” If size meant anything in sports, it certainly didn’t bother Tiny, for he has excelled in three major sports--football, basketball, and baseball. Medfield High’s loss will be the U. S. Navy’s gain, because Leo plans to enlist after graduation. We’re betting he comes out an admiral!

EDNA TRAVERS: “GIGGLES” After the Washington trip, we were all convinced that Edna would never leave Medfield again-except, perhaps, to go to Medway, of course. High marks and an excellent attendance record are just two of Edna’s many accomplishments. Her contagious, and often damp, laughter accounts for her nickname of “Giggles.” PETER VASATURO: “PETE” Pete, although quite shy, brings happiness and joy to all of us. His pleasant disposition goes a long way, even with the mink he has helped to raise. Pete has an excellent scholastic record, which will help him tremendously when he enters college next fall. • ’ ■ w • - r •». MARCIA WARREN: “TILLIE” Tillie is the only one who can keep a straight face while telling a joke that has the rest of us in stitches! She has been an outstanding cheerleader quite a few years and also plays a fine game of basketball. Next year will find her studying hard at college where, we know, she will make many friends. ROBERT YOUNG: “BOB” He’s the mechanical genius of the Senior Class, who was always there when a light switch needed repairing or someone’s car broke down. Although he didn’t participate in sports himself, he always came to the games and cheered. He also was the basket¬ ball manager of the ’48-’49 team. vb- m
