True enough, he is very shy' and bashful, but just wait! Time will tell-it always has. Rita Greene MHFCII 9 Commercial 5 Nelson Heights David Garrick Dramatic Club 4. If one were reading Rita's is personality in proverbs, one would say that she put the right ff-ot out of bed each morning. She puts the same foot forward during the day.

She's a smart dress- er and a clever dancer, Alphonse Iadarola August 5 College 42 'Water Street Science Club 4: Ring Com- mittee: Dante Club 4: David Garrick Dramatic Club 4. Your first meeting with Al may leave you with the impres- sion that he is just another quiet chap. But our opinion is that further acquaintance will reveal a humorous personality, and a variety of comical and pleasing mannerisms, Frank james Iadarola October 8 College 96 High Street Orchestra 1, 2. 3, 4. Frank is willing to bear his share of the burdens of life and dees not ask in return, as many do for a blare of trumpets to precede him. His fortitude helps him carry on where others would rest and too, we can't forget his music. Wie like it. Enrico joseph Iannitelli May 10 College 2-13 Central Street Orchestra 2, Sl, 4. Heres a fellow who's the top when it comes to a discus- sion on the relative merits of popular dance V orchestras and their music-al arrangements. But this is to be expected, as he is a fine musician himself, Butch is a very entertaining person, too, with his comical imitations of such radio personages as Joe Penner, etc.

David Garrick Dramatic Club 3, 4: German Club, Secre- tary: Senior VVeek Committee. We all liked Clarie and she liked us, we think. She had pleasant little ways of help- ing out when assistance was needed. A party went when she was present. She put her mind on details and always came out on top. Louis Angelo Ferrari September 18 College 34 Parkhurst Street What he says goes: what he starts, he finishes. He has little patience with lazy persons, be- cause he himself is self-reliant and energetic He has real ap- preciation for the worth-while values of life, is strongly am- bitious, and has plenty of char- acter. He has our generous ad- miration.

The people who call you vacil- ating and fickle do not know what they are talking about. You only seem so to those who do not understand you. VVe do, and we have accepted the fact that you have an unusual number of good qualities: dependability, in- telligence, and cooperation. Frank Ghiringhelli September 27 Commercial 209 East Main Street Baseball 2, 33 Football 2, 3. 4: Orchestra. Anybody got a pencil? Ghir- inghelli has lost his, and we be- lieve lie'll be a nervous wreck without it. His pencil-chewing and physical actions during a recitation will never be forgotten. Not only did he entertain us in class, but his .musical presenta- tions were always enjoyed. Frank also displayed his skill on the football field and baseball dia- Inond.

U Erminia Gloria Ianitelli November 19 College 15 East Main Street Dante Club 3, 4: David Gar- rick Dramatic Club 3: Glee Club. Minnie has most of the things she wants, More she will get in the future, as she takes pride in her work and possessions. She is ever forging ahead to loftier heights and is one of the persons for whom our motto has a deep significance. Richard Francis jackson November 30 College 37 Congress Street David Garrick Dramatic Club 3, 4, Senior Week Committee. Who's that lecturing on scien- tinc experiments, in Room 1? Of course, it must be Jackson. Dick knows the history of every scientific device that makes life pleasant, yes. everything from a toaster to an autogiro. Jackson proved himself as equally inter- ested in chemistry. What's that? Surely, he wants to become a chemist, and the day may come when we will be proud of him. Francis Leo Kirby September 30 College 90 South Main Street Senior Week Committee. We often wondered if some sharp questioning in the class- room spoiled the reverie of this gay young fellow. He seemed to enjoy a peaceful existence, but was always there when a response was necessary. He is the lad whose respect and diligence have commanded the admiration of us all, Evelyn Frances Knights January 6 Commercial Bellingham Not once in her years here did we hear an unkind word spoken from this lassie's lines. Not once has she been too busy when called upon to perform some duty. We think that such quali- ties should be mentioned, we gladly do. Mildred Anna Kunz August 8 College 63 North Bow Street David Garrick Dramatic Club 3, 4: Senior Glee Club: Vice- chairman, Senior Week Commit- tee. Millie's accompanied us in many ways-in the class room, in the corridors, and in the Hall, when her fingers glided easily over the piano keys. Her appre- ciation of the worthwhile things in life have caused us to spend many delightful moments in her company. Irene Marie LaChapelle June 3 Commercial 368 Main Street Senior Glee Club. She reminds us of some gay, light sprite from our childhood story books. Petite and demure. she embodies all the womanly characteristics that create charm. This fine spirit is balanced with a serious desire to accomplish her duties. Annette Elinor Lancia January 17 Commercial 48 East Main Street David Garrick Dramatic Club 3, 4: Senior Glee Club: Ring Committee 3: Book Committee. Cooperation is highly developed in Ann. She never disliked sup- ervision because she did her work well. She knows, too, that this praise is justihed. Even though she has not done all that she in- tends to, she will, and we are confident that she will win the race. Lester Blaine Libbey, jr.

Dance Committee 3, 4: Science Club 3, 4: Ring Committee 33 Football 2: Art Editor, Oak, Lily, and Ivyg Cheer Leader 4. President Senior Glee Club. Lib's widespread popularity is due largely to his good sportsman- ship and versatile personality. It would be hard to find a fellow engaged in more numerous and varied activities. Add to this his sound judgment, handsome ap- pearance, and peaches and cream complexion, and you will readily see why he has enjoyed the companionship of the strong and the weak. Lewis George Luchini May 17 College 122 East Main Street Freshman Debating Club: Sci- ence Club 3, 4: David Garrick Club 3: Dance Committee 3, 42 Ring Committee 3: Soloist, Sen- ior Glee Club: President of Class 3, 4: Book Committee. Here's to Lou . We salute him as our president: we salute him as our most popular boy: we salute him as a perfect pal. He possesses the characteristics necessary for one to achieve his goal, and we are certainly root- ing for him. john Lynch November 21 College 25 South Main Street Here's to Johnny, one of the nicest boys in our class. Ask anyone who knows. He was al- ways polite, and so quiet that one would never know he was in the room. He was never seen talking to girls, and that was a pity, because with his charm, he could easily captivate one of the fair damsels.
