3Qg333£02035XKSS THE LOG MINER E. CILLEY “cur Football 3, 4; Traffic Squad 4 Miner was born in Winthrop and attended Winthrop High before coming to Melrose. Due to his good nature, popularity comes easy and we are sure that “such popularity must be de- served.’’ Wherever the best looking “Flying Cloud” in town is seen, there also will be found none other than Miner at the wheel. For two consecutive seasons Miner fought for his Alma Mater in football, receiving in his second season a broken wrist, which by no means dimmed bis sunny nature. Success to you, “Cill,” in the years to come. WARREN CLARK “Warzie,” “Warz” Hi-)’ 3, 4; Corresponding Secretary 4; School Life 4: Euclidean 2, 3; Nuntius 2; Thrift Council 2, 3; Traffic Squad 4; Year Book 4 “Warzie,” despite his size, manages to be seen and he is well known to every Senior. Especially is he known to three of them with which he makes up that great order, “The Highland Bear- cats.” He has the happy faculty of being able to get good marks with a minimum of home work. During his Junior and Senior years be has taken a prominent part in various school activities, especially Hi-Y, where he served as Corresponding Secretary. He also has faithfully served on the literary staff of both the ear Book and School Life. He expects to go to Tuf ts next year and take a B.S. course. Good luck, “Warz”! RUTH I. COBLEIGH Cloak and Plume 1, Girls ' Club 3. 4 Ruth came to us from the Washington School in 1926; and she has been a faithful supporter of all school activities. She has made many true friends during the past four years. She has also been a member of the Girls’ Club during the past two years. We are sure Ruth will be successful in all she undertakes and we wish her the best of luck. H. COLLINS ‘By” Manager Football 4; Assistant Manager 2, 3; Masque and Wig 4; School Life 3; “She Stoops to Conquer, 1; Traffic Squad 4; Year Book 4 “By” is essentially a manager. In grammar school he business managed the Rooseveltian. In High School he has managed the football team and lias also business-managed the Year Book so competently that his loud wails for five “spots” will be heard un- til Melrose builds a new high school. And how he can manage the keyboard ! His musical tastes run generally to the better compositions and particularly to the “Rhapsody in Blue.” “By’s” zealous study of the latter has led him to a personal interview with the composer. His management of the part of Diggory, the awkward servant, in the recent play was notable. May you manage marvelously all you attempt at B. U. with success ! BYRON

HENRY R. CATTLEY “Hen,” “Cat” Euclidean 2, 3, 4; Hi-Y 2, 3, 4; Traffic Squad 4 Henry came to M. H. S. from the Washington School along with the other little Freshmen. He is very ambitious and likes to make acquaintances with anyone. Although some of us know very little about the theories of Einstein, Henry has been able to explain them to us. He has been known to the pupils of the school as “Einstein the Great.” Henry expects to enter Tufts Engineering School or Northeastern in 1931. We wish you the best of luck, Henry. • ») ERNEST CHARD “Ernie” Ernie peragrated to the “Brick Pile” from the Roosevelt School from which he graduated in 1926 as President of his class. One of his first accomplishments after entering Melrose High was that of mastering the technique of oratory, which, in fact, has lead him to a place in the Masque and Wig Society, and consequent acting, having starred for the last three years in that Society’s production. In contrast to this activity, we are reminded of his grea interest in baseball, and although it is his favorite sport, he has had insufficient time to pursue it to the extent of his desires due to the demands made upon his atten- tion by many other extra curricula activities. Ernie is somewhat of a journalist, too, and we believe that during his subsequent four years at Harvard he will make the English Department of that school sit up and take notice. Bonne fortune, Ernie ! MARION CHISHOLM “Chisy” Cloak and Plume 1 ; Girls’ Club 3, 4; Masque and Wig 2, 3, 4; Traffic Squad 4 The last bell rings; a minute or two passes, and as one list- ens, a sharp click of heels is heard coming down the corridor. Then “Chisy” bursts into the classroom. We all know her as a demure girl, with smiling eyes, and a wonderful personality. Al- though never having taken part in athletics, “Chisy” has been a real sport and attended all the games. Perhaps she has a reason for liking football and the color “blue” — -who knows? We know she will be a success in later life, so do not be surprised if you see, a few years from now, that America claims Mme. Chis- holm as its leading fashion designer. LOUISE E. CHURCHILL Art League 4; Girls’ Club 2, 3, 4; Glee Club 3, 4; • “Riding Dozen the Sky 3 Louise is a studious little girl who came to us from the Gooch School. During the past four years in M. H. S. she has not only devoted herself industriously to her studies but entered into the many activities of the school including the new Art League where she has done her part to further its success. Louise is best known by her beautiful drawings and the splendid record she has made in her lessons. We know that such talent will mean a lot when she arrives at Normal Art School next year. Best of luck, Louise !

EVERETT L. COOK “Cookie” Debating Club 4; Hi-Y 3, 4; School Life 4; Traffic Squad 4; ) ' car Book 4 When “Cookie” came to Melrose six years ago, lie didn’t know any one here: but it didn’t take him long to get acquainted, and he is now well acquainted. He is another member of that well-known quartet, “The Highland Bearcats.” He has taken a prominent part in Hi-Y, on the advertising staff of the Year Book, and other school activities of which he has been a mem- ber. One way to find him is to look for “Warzie.” The Scien- tific Course has not proven too hard for “Cookie,” and he expects to go directly to college next year. We know he will be just as successful and well-liked there as he has been in Melrose. Our best wishes go with you, “Cookie” ! Charlotte came to us from the Gooch School. She brought with her a sweet disposition that has won her many friends. Charlotte appears to be very quiet and reserved until one reallv knows her. When one hears a burst of laughter issuing forth from the dressing room of Room 13, one immediately knows that Charlotte is telling one of her jokes to her gang. Her great ambition is to become a lawyer and we know that by her per- severance and intellect she will be sure to succeed. Good luck. Charlotte ! CHARLOTTE COLLINS “Sartie” GRACE B. CROOK ER “Cookie” Girls ' Club 3. 4 Grace, too, came from the Washington School. Four years ago she started as a Freshman and now, having “followed through” with the rest of us. this not-so-dignified Senior has made many true friends who are attracted by her sweet way. Two years ago Grace joined the Girls’ Club. She has a great liking for hairdressing and hopes some day soon to start a beauty shop having for her partner — somebody. Best of success. Grace, in all you undertake. LOTS CUTTING Lois is one of the quiet members of our class. She entered M. H. S. in the fall of 1T26 from the Washington School. Al- though Lois has not been very prominent in the activities of the school, she has made many friends during her four years in Mel- rose High. Does that center play a good game? Ask Lois, she knows. We have heard she also rates an usher ' s pass. Hov about it. Lois? Lois is undecided as to ,what business college she will attend, but we all wish her the best of luck in whatever she undertakes.
