30 e m o r 1 a 1 Hi h School 1943 JANETTE SPURRIER is teaching back- ward girls the art of winning friends and influencing people. We recall her bubbling personality back in M. H. S. STUART MacMILLAN has fulfilled his lifetime ambition and is now in Symphony Hall. He got his start in the M. H. S. as- sembly hall, playing Boogie Woogie. HOWARD SCHOFIELD is still sleepy. Is it because he delivers milk so early in the morning or sees Doris so late at night? DURA HIGGINS has been promoted to leadership of the Cub Scouts. We remem- ber his uniforms in M. H. S. BARBIE MICHAUD has combined beauty, brains, and wit, and is now Queenie, Queen of Them All. She got her start in the senior play. VERONICA SMALL has taken over the Gracie Allen show, advertising Giggle-Juice to give you a boost. They say she is roll- ing ' em in the aisles. CARL TRULSON is the proprietor of the Corinne Laundry. His one complaint is that he hasn ' t got a Shurt-leff. BOB JOHNSON played baseball for the Red Sox. Later he became an umpire in the National League. When the ball lands outside the base line, he yells, Fowl-er ball! DONALD QUAGAN ' S Sullivan ' s Trav- els took him around the world in a Short- yer time than he thought it would. LILLIAN JONES, or Jonesie, is still the most popular gal around town, but she is in a terrible Stew. Her heart is beating a loud Pat, Pat, Pat, and she doesn ' t know what to do about it. ALBERTA SNOW is now the head of the attendance department at M. H. S., succeed- ing Mr. Thomas. When the pupils have been absent, she greets them with an Ah ' l Bet-A knows where you ' ve been. PHYLLIS JOHNSON is Secretary of the Treasury and also Chairman of the Com- mittee on Women ' s Rights. We remember her ability and spirit in M. H. S. EVELYN ANDREWS is running a ball- room in competition with the Grange Hall. She caters to men in the Service. ARTHUR BURGESS is directing the mas- sive production I Didn ' t Get Home Until Morning, which is successor to Heart of a City. GEORGE FARLEY, the Mr. Fixit of the Senior Class, has taken over the Dorothy Dix column in the Globe. When he gets that fan mail, he reads it. If the situation is hopeless, he takes the girl out himself. EDITH DUDLEY is still quiet; but, then, she has to be, tip-toeing down the corridors of St. Luke ' s. ALFRED MORRIS is coaching football at Notre Dame. People claim that he is another Knute Rockne. We remember him well on Battis Field. HELEN NORTON — (Poetry — ahem!) Helen is the sweetheart of all the boys in the nation. But she claims that she prefers taking dictation. A lot of boys have tried to get placed upon her list. But usually almost all are dismissed. DORIS OUELLETTE is another of our girls who preferred nursing as a career. She is now overseas, nursing the soldiers back to health and another crack at the Japs. GIFFORD PHILLIPS recently erected a shrine. We Bet-ty dedicated it to a cer- tain girl. We recall how he worshipped her at M. H. S. Man-About-Town MALCOLM PERSON is still keeping all the girls guessing. As town selectman, though, we Bet-ty is happy with a certain Miss McDowell for his private secretary. DOREINE LINDSAY, now a Navy nurse, is keeping up the morale of our boys in the Service. We understand that she has fallen hard for one in particular and soon intends to resign and settle down in a bungalow built for two. BOB GROSS was opposed to a fourth term. So he formed his own party, which successfully carried the 1944 election. GERMAINE BAZINET has taken up nurs- ing. She is getting her Hat, but in the meantime is also getting a lot of experience in the Ward. ALICE GARDINER ' S singing and dancing ability has placed her high on the list of famous stars. She has a steady position on the Anderson program. Her theme song is He ' s My Guy. KATHERINE SOULE is now teaching kindergarten classes. We wonder whether all her experience was gained taking care of her younger brothers.

1943 Memorial H i It Sckool 29 LIL SALLEY has given up her job at the bakery and is running a home for orphaned children. She is very much enGROSSed with her job as mother to millions. STEPHEN ANDERSON is now the proud owner of a country estate, and his Gard- iner may be found flitting among the flowers in a sweet little Alice-blue gown. PAULINE WASHBURN has opened a tea shop near the seashore, where she can oftlimes be found Scan-Ion the seas for her Joe. ELAINE TESSIER, hitting the high spots with a Smack, has had to Buck up against a great many obstacles. We ' re hoping a certain someone will come back and Walk-er to the altar. LOUIS FORNEY is now cruising around in his cruiser. He says that business is pick- ing up. CAROLYN BRALEY taxied herself right up to become the head operator in the tele- phone company. It must have been Joe ' s taxi rides that placed her in that position. From all reports, BARBARA FISH is running a date bureau for the boys in the armed forces. It ' s too bad Jack walked in, and then came the ' Don ; for she does all the entertaining herself. DONALD GAMMONS ' romantic naval career has him Fish -ing on warm summer days and cold winter nights. MABEL VICKERY and BETSEY SMALL- EY are hostesses in the Stork Club in New York. They have achieved their success largely through a night spot on the clear Nemasket. The Florence Nightingale of the Senior Class is RUTH THOMAS. Her work on the battle front has given much hope and cheer to the soldiers. PATSY lAMPIETRO ' S romantic army life has led him over the Hill and stopped at Jone Sea. ANNIE QUINDLEY has risen to fame as a second Marie Dressier. We ' ll always re- member her delightful portrayal of Mrs. Good in Heart of a City. ROBERT Mad-About-Watches SMITH has achieved his goal, timing burlesque shows at a well known theater on Scollay Square. His theme song is Time on My Hands. After retiring from the Navy, JOHN HAY- WARD settled down to a life of bliss on Kinsman Acres. He and his wife are raising a brood of little Arleens and Johnnies. LAWRENCE SHAW has set up a studio in Hollywood, photographing artists and models. Nice work, if you can get it. ELIZABETH ANDERSON ' S natural jjlat- inum locks secured for her a fine position with the Colgate Soap Company. She ' s the girl you see in the Halo ads. RAYMOND GAM ACHE became so en- grossed with acting that he took a course in dramatics. He is now a matinee idol. LOIS WOOD, the brawn and brains of the Senior Class, has become a student of criminology. She says, Give them enough rope, and they ' ll hang themselves. She ought to know. She has been stringing them along herself. JEANNETTE ATKINS ' excellent work as editor of the Sachem and the Yearbook se- cured for her the editorship of the weekly publication Occupational Therapy and Its Intricacies. RUTH KLINE has achieved success as an Army doctor. Could it have been helping Miss Pasztor at the diphtheria clinic, Ruth? BARBARA TINKHAM, after many years of intensive study, has become a very cap- able nurse. Just this year she nursed a fever- stricken cat back to health and received an award from the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. EUGENE SAVARD now occupies the honored position of Mayor of Skeedunk Village and is one of the village ' s leading politicians. He won the election by kissing the babies, under 21, of course. DONALD BOWLES prefers farming to the business world. Although he is still raising Cain, his chief product is — you guessed it — Corn. HELEN SMARSH is an Army nurse and is wowing the soldiers with her beauty. CONNIE DRAGHETTI, although Bourne in the country, is now Bowl-ing the pa- tients over in one of the nation ' s largest hos- pitals. DAVID YOUNG is a general in the State Guard. Generally speaking, we remem- ber his marching with the State Guard back in ' 43.
