Edward F. Searles High School ] 937 ELEANOR ELIZABETH KOHLER Senior Play Sing away sorrow; cast away care. What a sense of humor Eleanor has! Unlike so many of us, she can laugh off most any catastrophe, even if it ' s chemistry. Eleanor has enlivened many a class with her humorous recitations, and in spite of her happy-go-lucky air, she is in the upper fifth of the class. Your chosen vo- cation, nursing, is a hard one, Eleanor, but with your abil- ity to grin and bear it, your success is assured. TRULA RUBY KOLOFOLES Thy countenance opened, but thy thoughts concealed. Imbued with the essential characteristics of a scholar, Trula is one student whose breakfast, dinner, supper, bed- time and study periods held one dread worry — English. But her worries were for naught because she now stands near the top of our high scholastic ladder. Although she has an angelic appearance, we are inclined to wonder about her actions outside of school. However, hard work like yours never goes unrewarded — so keep it up, old giri! ROLAND C. KORB Full of life, and xll of fun— Speaking of sports, he ' s one. Much can be said about Rolie ' s ability to make friends easily, for in less than two weeks with us he was as well-known and had us many acquaintenances as any one of us. Nothing seems to bother Rolie; he takes the bitter with the sweet and is always the same affable person. Ymir addition to our class, Rolie, has been one of the go id things that happened to us this year. May your road in life be free from bumps! STELLA JOSEPHINE KRASNOWSKA Laugh and the world laughs with you. Our Stella ' s sniih holds for us one significance in par- ticular — beautiful teeth. She has that flashing smile that we frequently see on billboardj and posters, and her dis- position is equally as bright. Just as your smile encour- ages us, Stella, we want to encourage you to keep your present outlook on life! OLGA KTZ.MITSkl Salutatorian There ' s great ability in knotting how to conceal one ' s ability. Here she is, friends — the most intelligent girl in our class! We will never forget the modest, calm manner in which Olga received this news. Her honor is well-deser- ved, for this brilliant miss devoted the greatest part of h r four-year sojourn to diligent study, much to the ad- miration of faculty and student body. The world holds great recompense for sincerity and perseverance like yours, Olga. 28

1937 Edward F. Searles High School WALTER WOODROW KACHUK Football Baseball Track 3 ' ' Live and let live. ' ' A comparatively retiring classmate for the first two years with us, Walter surprised us by launching: full speed into our activities this year. Fall fever had a tre- mendous effect upon hi-m, for he joined our stalwart war- riors on the gridiron and made a creditable record of his athletic efforts. Here ' s to you, Walter. SOPHIE CATHERINE KATINAS Year Book Committee 4 Various Committees An ardent worker, a student bright Whose work is nearly always right. Introducing Sophie, one of the brainiest girls in our class One look at this picture will show that Sophie is not obsessed with study, so the conclusion is that she is a natural . She is also a fast stepper on the dance floor, an amusing companion, and a willing, helpful worker. Here ' s hoping your intellect will be as appreciated at Katherine Gibbs as it has been at Edward F. Searles. Traffic Squad MIRLE AMORY KELLETT Quartermaster, Cadets 4 I defy the dentists. Tooth paste ad smiles have nothing on Kellie ' s smile. As a single file man, he has found ample opportunity to display many flashing grins. Yes, Mirle makes it a plea- sure to take the long way around to the lab. We hope, Kellie, that your future patients will likewise find it a pleasure to seek medical advice. MARTHA DORIS LAYOUN KFOURY Never on furtive mischief bent, She ' s always on her tasks intend. Here we have Martha, a combination of three great qualities, ambition, sincerity, and courtesy. She seems to have, to some extent, the same likes as her oldest sister, Isabelle, for Martha has a decided tendency toward the literary. We can think of no subject more useful or fine than your special interest, Martha. MARY ELEANOR KING Blue and White Staff 4 She acquires strength in her progress. If you want a well-dressed, intelligent and attractive young lady, select Eleanor. In all these respects, she is A, number 1. Why, she can even behave her.-elf in French; and take it from other members of (Miss Lord ' s fifth per- iod French class, that ' s something! We hand it to you, El, you have a regard for rulea and perseveranc that will make nursing the vocation for you. 27

1937 Edward F. Searles High School DOROTHY Y. LABELLE There ' s so much mirth and wit about thee. Coming to us in our Junior year, Dot made a rapid and steady rise to popularity. Being an exceptionally good dancer, Dot is in great demand at our socials. She is al- ways chic in appearance, and really very attractive. May you always dance away your cares, Dot! RAYMOND WALTER LAFRENIER Women delight me. Who ' s that ladies ' man who stations himself outside room 23 between classes? Why, that ' s Ray, who spends the few minutes before each class giving a cheery How- de-do to the female members of the school. Once the bell announces the beginning of a recitation, however, Ray resumes his more serious qualities, forgets more amusing things, and tends strictly to business. This is a good practice, Ray. ANTHONY LAHOUD Blessed is he who invented sleep. Introducing that rather studious, rather shy, very like- able and well-mannered Anthony! His responses in Eng- lish class are evidence of his level-headedness and subtle humor, while in French his apparent lack of enthusiasm over such works as Tartarin de Tarascon adds zest to an already fine class. Your classmates join in saying Bon amusemeiit, Anthony. ROBERT ROY LAKE Capt. Cadets 4 Traffic Squad Vice President 1, 2 Nice to talk with - Better to dance with. Make room, Gene Austin! Here comes Bob, that hand- some, talented Beau Brummel of M. H. S. Bob attempts to retain Law and Order in our echoing corridors, but always finds time to let pleasure interfere with business by flashing th at famous Lake smile to captivate the ladies. You ' ve been one swtell classmate, Bob. Keep your sunny side up! Band 4 JOHN E. LAMBERT Orchestra 1, 2, 3, 4 Music hath charms. Presenting the Louie Armstrong of Methuen! Yes, John, we ' re proud of you, not only for your expert mas- tering of the trumpet and other instruments, but for your ability to remain reticent, serious, and courteous among a class of so many barbarians. Your musical talent coupled with such desirable qualities will carry you far, John. 29 rA
