DOROTHY GILLEY Dot Punchard High School. Bowling Club (4) ; Chorus (3) ; Girls’ Club (3, 4) ; Operetta (3) Attention folks, for we now come upon one of the jol- liest girls of the school ! Dot, a dark-haired, brown-eyed girl with a sunny disposition and winning ways, likes bowl- ing, riding, and swimming. Her other pastimes are movies, playing the piano, and listening to the radio. Occasionally in her Biology class you may even hear her giggle. After graduation Dot is entering Katherine Gibbs. PHYLLIS CLARK Phil” Roosevelt School “Phil” is an energetic young miss with a pleasing per- sonality and pleasant smile. She is modest, too, especially about two very persistent dimples that just won’t be hidden. Although ‘‘Phil’’ did not participate in many school activi- ties, she spends much of her time dancing, riding, swimming, skiing, bowling, and attempting to “truck.” We expect to see Phyllis at Chandler this coming year and from there — well, who knows? DORIS CLINKARD “Little Big Shot “Dot” “Clinkie” “Tweeny” Arlington Junior High. Girls’ Club (3, 4) ; Masque and Wig (1, 2, 3, 4) ; Poetry Club (2) ; Cloak and Plume (1 1 Arlington lost (not the first time!) a great actress when Doris came to Melrose in ’34 to star in “The Stars May Change”, “I’ll Leave It To You!”, “The Admirable Crich- ton”, and “Philip Goes Forth.” Doris has been a “little Sunbeam” during her High School career. When she grows up, she wants to be a Radio Star, and she will be ! Here’s to you, Tweeny! WILLIAM BURTON COFFIN Burt” “Coffee” “Willie” Calvin Coolidge School. Glee Club (2) ; Chorus (1) ; Band (4) ; Lens and Shutter (3) ; Euclidean (3) ; Operetta (2, 4) ; Basketball (3, 4) ; Track (4) Burt stands out above the student body principally be- cause of his six feet three. It’s either because of this fact or because he has such a gentle nature that the women, es- pecially sophomores, mob him. Because of Burt ' s versatil- ity in playing the piano and a game of tennis equally well, he will go places next year at Lowell Textile. Veniet, vide- bit, et vicerit ! (27)

She has won piles of friends in these four years, and we all think she’s just swell. She likes to play tennis and ride in convertible coupes. Well, here’s to you, pal, until we take that trip around the world ! RICHARD E. CHIPCHASE “Dick” Calvin Coolidge School. “Dickie” has been with us for four years, and although he hasn ' t participated in any sport, he is really a good ath- lete. “Dickie’s” interests chiefly consist of electricity and radio. In his room are many electrical contraptions that he made to make life easier for himself. After he grad- uates from high school, Dick hopes to study to become an electrical engineer. GEORGE A. CHISHOLM “Chip” Calvin Coolidge School. Track (2, 3, 4) ; Gym Team (3, 4) With his ready smile and pleasing personality “Chip” has made many friends. Not until his Sophomore year did he take an interest in Track. If he achieves his ambition to be an Olympic Trackman, we will be able to look back on his enviable record as a runner while in school. We know that his future, at present undecided, will be successful. FRANCES E. CHURCHILL “Frannie” “Fran” Bishop Spencer College, St. John ' s, Newfoundland ; Glee Club (2) ; Chorus (3, 4) ; “ H ollywood Bound” (3) ; Girls’ Club (3, 4) A giggle, a chuckle, then a laugh, an old familiar voice — you have it, that’s Frannie Churchill. Fran, with her beam- ing smile and good nature, is welcome everywhere. Hail- ing from far off Newfoundland, she quickly became a friend to everybody. Fran is interested in singing and is a great tennis fan. After graduation she plans to enter the business world. (26)
