taxi-llGI-ls Q C' ... . 3 'P Eli 1 E If 4' 5' FQIDENOQQY 1947 Eleanor Bristol-Ellie is a very attractive girl with a very attractive personality. She's sweet, sincere, and shy at times. But when she's present, there is always something added. Maybe it's iust Ellie herself. She doesn't have to do anything extraordinary- iust be there. Mary Burke - Small, shy, sweet, Mary's one of the best liked persons in the senior class. She doesn't talk too much, blushes easily, and yet she can be unexpectedly firm when she wishes to be. Robert Busa - If we handed out titles to all, Bob's would be The Dancer . Ah-and what a dancer! You not only see clouds - you're stepping on them! He's easy going, friend- ly to all, and loads of fun. Douglas Brown, Jr. - Doug is Bernice Burdacki-Bernie may be someone no one should miss. Ask his friends, or better, ask anyone who is lucky enough to sit near him in class. Next to Shakespeare and a few other early geniuses, he is the world's best punster. Noreen Burke - Noreen is our Ja colleen who has an endless supply of energy on the basketball court. When it comes to figuring out a chem- istry problem, though, she is less enthusiastic. Somehow the chemistry class never ap- pealed to her. ne Buttner - Cute Jane is a typical high school girl. She's an enviable blonde with a winning smile and pleasing personality, she does her work when she's supposed to, and has her fun and plenty of it when it's time. Janie is a girl worth being acquainted with. small but you certainly can't miss her when she's there no matter how many are around her. With her sweet person- ality and cute humor little Bernie has been the creator of many muffled laughs in class. Beverly Burkhardt - Another gal with talented fingers, Bev plays an instrument you don't hear much about . . . the organ, and she plays it well, too. Although busy with con- stant practice, she manages to belong to several clubs in- cluding Forum and Washing- ton Historical. Arline Camp -The Talker-that's Arline's title, and a very ap- propriate one, too. A cute girl with a cute manner - that's Arline. If you ever hear a very sweet, soft voice say, Num- ber, please? - that's Arline.

He is quiet, friendly, good looking. His shirts al- ways seem a little whiter, his creases a little sharper and he is very popular with both boys and girls. Harriet Bollman - Harriet is one of the live wires of M.H.S. and is usually found wherever anything is going on. Her con- genial disposition, her gift of gab, and her remarkable ability for writing editorials make her the envy of many. Dawn Bouton - Dawn is a nice name, pretty and different. It matches its owner. She is also pretty and different. lt's diffi- cult to feel grown up and yet still be at the age of giggles. Dawn manages, gracefully. kids , and up comes Dottie, a girl with an individual per- sonality. She knows everyone, and everyone knows her. She's full of energy, iokes, and laughs. Just the girl for a crowd and fun - that's Dottie. Sibella Bonviso - If you can't remember the words to a catchy two gun number, ask Sib, she's an authority on cowboy songs. Going even farther, she likes guitars and dreams of being able to play one someday - letter-perfect. Dot Bradshaw-If Sigma Chi can have a sweetheart, we can too. Everybody knows Dot and everybody likes her. lf report cards were broadened, Dot would receive S's for her looks, her unaffected sweet- ness, and her sportsmanship. .la always brings Ellie to our mind-maybe because pink is synonymous with happiness. sweetness, attractiveness, and dimples. They all seem to add up to Ellie because she is that and more. net Borriello - Janet's vast number of beautiful suits are admired and envied. She's quiet but her bright head and spontaneous smile win her friends galore and make her more than welcome in any group of students. Elmer Brechlin -A popular stu- dent in the cooperative course, Elmer seems to be a man of relatively few words. Though not of towering stature, he makes up for it by shining in many other ways. .V

You get as much fun out of watching her as you would laughing at the ioke. She's a nice kid, is Mu-Mu. Joseph Ceruti - M.H.S.'s loss will be Agiculture's gain, Joe be- ing one of the pillars of Mr. Wooding's classes. He con- tributed greatly to his team's win at U-Conn. in April, and with his scintillating person- ality, we're sure he'll go far.

With her friendly ways and helpful hand she helps make every day a school day to remember. She won't be for- gonen. Wilfrid Chausse - Mr. Parisi's right-hand man is bright, ami- able, and everyone's friend. He is always on the side of the underdog,and cools many a quick temper with his never failing good nature. Don't change, Choss. Ruth Cohen - A quick, deter- mined walk, a lovely smile, and a mind as sharp as a flashing stiletto. Ruth will never be plagued by that ole debbil procrastination. She has great ability, she likes work, and she knows what she wants. Lorraine Casey - The girl with nonchalant but pleasing man- ner, Lorraine takes every- thing in her stride and never lets anything disrupt her peaceful existence, and what an existence - fun, fun, fun. Aurelia Chester - You'd never guess Rae is so shy she dreads walking down the hall alone. Unlike other shrinking violets, she is able to seem poised and relaxed anywhere. Her great- est gift is the ability to make friends with anyone. Eleanor Colangelo - You can't miss Red. For a very long, very shiny, very obvious rea- son. When you can take your eyes away, you'll find the rest of her is iust as attractive, in- cluding a funny, surprised chuckle.
