JACK RICCI Jack Ricci-one of the best natured fel- lows in M.H.S. Jack's big: Packard served Joe Nadile and Lois Hall verv nicely. We dare say that Jack will never forget Ed- mund Burke's six resolutions for promoting: peace in the American colonies. Jack is, by the way, 11 very good singer, as all those that attended the Minstrels will testify. Glee Club 123: Props and Paints 1413 Minstrels C3-45.
