THE LOG ARLES W. DOUCETTE ‘“Boy” ' ' Boy, ' ' the dark-eyed “shiek,” danced his way to Melrose High via the Lincoln School. Although “Boy” has not dis- tinguished himself in athletics he has always been a loyal rooter at the various games. His one hobby is dancing and he never lacks a partner as he has plenty of it.” Although at presen ' : “Boy” regards the whole world as a ballroom, his “fast-stepping” in the future will be done in the business world. He has made many friends in M. H. S. whose best wishes follow him into the business world. : :: : M; mi I CAROLYN DOW “Cal,” “Pete” “Pete” is one of our very charming members who has a “Hi, there,” and her big smile for everyone. “Cal” is also a record holder, for she has for four years held the undisputed title of “Champion Absentee of the Class of ’30,” but in spite of this, Pete” is well known throughout these portals. “Cal” is plan- ning to enter the School of Design next fall to study clothes designing. DOROTHY DOW “Dot,” “Dolly” Art League 4 “Dot” came to M. H. S. from the Roosevelt School. She likes sports, especially tennis, for individual pleasure and football for group.

During her four years here she has won the lasting friendship of many of her schoolmates. Alice will be remembered for her musical talent both as a pianist and singer. She has been in the chorus of “Ermine” and “Riding Down the Sky,” and was chosen leading lady in the “Count and the Coed.” Her small stature is probably due to the fact that she rides nearly everywhere she goes, especially in Chevrolets ! Alice lias been studying com- mercial subjects in preparation for some business college. She has our best wishes for her future success.

DOROTHY FORTIER “Dot,” “Dottie” Girls’ Club 4 Dorothy is one of the baby members of our class. She came to us from the D. N. Gooch School in the fall of 1926. Although she has taken part in but few of the activities, her winning personality has won her many new friends here at the High School. Whenever “Dot” has a spare moment, she is in the vicinity of Room 38. We all wonder what the attraction can be. Dot” is planning to enter Burdett College next fall, and we all wish her luck and success in the future. ROBERT FOSTER “Bob” Basketball 3, 4; Captain 4; Traffic Squad 4 This calm looking young fellow is a product of the Gooch School. “Bob” has distinguished himself very much in his four rears in Melrose High, both by his scholastic ability and his ath- letic attainments. Being an outstanding basketball player, he was chosen captain in his last year and served very ably in that position. “Bob” is also a remarkable swimmer, having won the Two-State Y. M. C. A. Championships in this event. He is en- tering Bowdoin in the fall, and great things are expected of him. WARREN FLETCHER “Fletch” Traffic Squad 4 Our friend came to us in ’26 with the other celebrities of the Washington School, a bright and snappy little fellow. He jumped into the Scientific Course with evident success for he intends to enter Northeastern in the fall. During his four years with us, he was ever present but rather passive. His favorite indoor sport is dancing, and his favorite outdoor sport is walking with a certain Junior. Best of luck, Fletch,” and may Juniors always smile. Football 2, 3, 4 Here, folks, is one of the best-liked boys in our class. Bruce, with his sunny disposition, fair face, and genuine all-aroundness, has won an army of friends, especially girls. His only regret is that he isn’t twins, then he could keep all of his dates. Coach Poole also wishes Bruce were twins for if there were two of him on the team there is no telling how many championships we would win. He is a member of the Lane, McArdle, Flanagan combination who have managed to graduate somehow or other. We “Wanda” what Bruce is going to do when he graduates, anyhow we know he will be a success.
