JULIA BLANCHARD “Julie” “Peanut” Girls’ Club 3, 4; Cloak and Plume 1 Five feet of sparkling personality. That is Julie Blanc- hard. She has dark hair, brown eyes, and last but not least, eye-lashes that measure Vs of an inch in length. Her favorite sports are talking and basketball, both of which she can do well. Julia plans to go to college, and we hope she will do as well there as here. ROBERT S. BLEYLE “Bob” “Blitie” Golf Team Bob entered our Temple of Knowledge in 1932 from the Washington School. He enjoys .all sports but excels in golf which has become his hobby. He spends much of his time on the links perfecting his game. It is also very evident that he centers his interests in brunettes of the opposite sex ! Bob intends to continue his studies at Bentley. We wish you the best of luck and success, Bob ! HENRY V. BONZAGNI “Bonz-oil” Baseball 1, 2, 3, 4; Football 1, 2, 3, 4 In the fall of ’32 Henry came to us from the Washing- ton School. His keen sense of humor and everlasting smile has won many friends in his four years at M. H. S. His exceptional playing of baseball and football has put his name in the Melrose High School Hall of Fame. Henry expects to enter Hebron Academy where, we know, he will be a success. ROBERT C. BOSWORTH “Bob” “Bosie” Bob crashed the portals of M. H. S. in 1931. Because of his ready smile and pleasing personality, he soon made many friends. His favorite pastime is tinkering with the family cars. His winsome nature has made him quite a fa- vorite with the opposite sex. Bob enjoys all sports and is a loyal supporter of the teams. He is planning to enter Lo- well Textile in the fall, and with his winning manner suc- cess is bound to come to him. 21

RUTH MIRIAM BERTH EL “Ruthie” Operetta 3; Glee Club 3, 4; Euclidean 3; Girls’ Club 3, 4 Ruthie came to us from the Roosevelt School in ’32. She hasn’t changed much since then. Even her feet are still small, hut she has a remarkable understanding. It seems that Ruth has a sort of weakness for Grahams and Petes, or maybe it’s Pete ' s Grahams. W ho knows? Anyway, she is a grand girl and we know she’ll make a “grand slam” in whatever she undertakes, whether it be in the business or domestic world. BERTHA BIERWEILER “Bert” “Bertie” “Bee” Cloak and Plume 1 ; Art League 2, 3, 4 Bertie came from the W ashington School in the fall of 1932. Because of her cheery smile and winning personal- ity, Bert has made a host of friends. Bertie is not only “ART -istically inclined but is also an expert seamstress, many of her pleasing costumes being her own creation. She spends most of her vacations in Maine. We wonder if “Hugh” is responsible for this. She plans to attend Art School after graduation. Best of luck, Bertie! ARTHUR BIRDSALE “Art” Hockey 2, 3, 4; Football 1, 2, 3, 4; Hi-Y 2 Art stumbled into M. H. S. from the Washington School in 1931. He has stumbled through his studies ever since then, and has discouraged more . than one stout-hearted teacher with his ready wit. Arthur has gone out for all sports that he could, and stuck to them all. He was re- warded , by becoming the first-string goalie of the hockey team. More power to you, Art. MARIE BISSELL “Biss” “Shrimp” “Itchy” Junior Red Cross 1, 2, 3, 4; Masque and Wig 2, 3, 4; Girls’ Club 3, 4; French Club 4; Winter Sports Club 4 Marie, as you can see, has been very active while in High School. She has been an excellent scholar and a fine sport. As captain of the class field hockey team, this year, she led her team to many victories. She has been a faithful mem- ber of the Red Cross Council throughout her entire school career. Although she is not certain about her future work, we are sure she will be a success. 20

We certainly hope that your desire will he fulfilled, Ruth. ROBERT ORRIN BOWER “Bob” “Red” “Robie” Traffic Squad 3, 4; Football 1 ; Stamp Club 4; Band 1 Bob has several hobbies. One of them is collecting stamps (guess he likes the taste of glue), and another is playing (?) golf. He is a true friend, always finding time to laugh, and is punctual in whatever he undertakes. He in- tends to enter Boston University. Good luck to you, Bob! WARREN BRISSETTE “Ward” “Bras” Football 1 W ard came to our humble domain in 1932. Alth ough not too active in sports, he has always supported them loy- ally. Of late North Quincy seems to be his weekly ren- dezvous. Wonder why?? W ard plans to attend Bentley Accounting College after leaving M. H. S. W e all wish him the best of luck and know he will be successful. When a “Hot” orchestra plays in town, we can always find W ard there in a daze. Rhythm is his business.” MARIE BROCK Girls’ Club 2, 3, 4 It was in 1932 that the Washington School gave us this dignified (?) blushing, blue-eyed blonde. She has a pleas- ing personality which has won her many friends. Marie is an ardent follower of all High School sports, especiall) football. We wonder why? Marie plans to enter Forsythe Dental School where we know she will succeed. Our best wishes, Marie. 22
