Top Row, Left to Right Dorothy Anne Abbondanza 50 Bast Main Street Homeroom A-2 Ambition : To see America first. Literary Club 4 ; Garrick Club 3, 4 ; Comm’l. Club 4; Minstrel Show 2. Dot’s main interest is to collect travel catalogues and to travel. She is an ardent lover of art and music. No. she’s not stuffy and bookish, for her sense of hum¬ or makes her a welcome addition to any daily story¬ telling session in or out of class. We hope that her appreciation of the finer things in life will continue to be her source of pleasure. Ralph Edward Acquafresca 19 Middleton Street Homeroom A-l Ambition : To be a mechanical engineer. Dante Club 2, President 3, 4 ; Science Club 3 ; Foot¬ ball 2, 3. Acqua of the ABC boys is one of those lads who are most likely to succeed. As president of the Dante Club he was an active member for three c onsecutive years. He didn ' t care for dancing, but he was never lacking in companionship. As a student and friend he is A-l. Claire Elizabeth Adams 6 Poplar Street Homeroom A-2 Ambition : To be a doctor ' s secretary. O. L. I. Comm. 4 ; Literary Club 4; Glee Club 4 ; M. H. S. S. A. Sec. 4 ; Garrick Club, Treas. 4 ; Dance Comm. 3, 4 ; Minstrel Show 2, 3, 4; Comm’l. Club 4. “Did you hear Bing last night? Wasn’t he great! Do you recognize the speaker? Of course, it’s Claire with her regular Friday morning question. She cer¬ tainly does remain loyal to a certain crooner but not so loyal as to the underclassmen, or should we say Ike underclassman? Dorothy Jean Alberta 52 South Bow Street Homeroom A-2 Ambition : To be a private secretary. Literary Club 4 ; Garrick Club 3, 4 ; Glee Club 4 ; Comm’l. Club 4 ; Librarian 4; Dante Club 2. As far as Dottie is concerned, music is one of the main reasons for living. Her excellent dancing made her an outstanding figure at the proms and other dances—a further proof that music is in her blood. A pleasant disposition and an excellent personality insure her success outside of school as a skillful sec¬ retary. Bottom Row, Left to Right Lucy Vivian Alcarese 42 Main Street Homeroom A-2 Ambition : To be a writer. Literary Club 4 ; Commercial Club 4. Good-natured Lucy is very quiet, yet she is full of fun. Those in her home town saw little of her, for her interest was centered on Holliston. We hear she is a budding genius because of her attempts at short story writing. We sincerely hope that she will be a Pulitzer prize winner ! We found her to be slow but sure—even in coming to school ! Margaret Dorothy Anderson 23 Emmons Streeet Homeroom A-2 Ambition : To be a stenographer. Literary Club 4 ; Glee Club 4 ; Garrick Club 3, 4 ; Ring Comm. 3 ; Minstrel Show 3, 4 ; Comm’l. Club 4. Miggie is as gay and carefree as a thistle from bonnie auld Scotland. Can our little friend be the object of a match? A certain Hopedale lad can vouch for her companionship. Right?—Right! Our memo¬ ries of those parties still linger. And oh! How she knew her history—dates? That everything of im¬ portance goes in cycles of three, she is positive. Ruth Anthony 26 Thayer Street Homeroom A-2 Ambition : To be a typist. Senior Literary Club 4. Those of us who were fortunate to cultivate Ruth’s friendship found her to be a ray of sunshine. Her shy manner at times caused Ruth to resemble the shrink¬ ing violet, but a timid smile, revealing handsome teeth was capable of reforming one’s whole outlook on life. Even though the expression is trite—Ruth is proof that a friend in need is a friend indeed. Robert Francis Ayotte 31 South Bow Street Homeroom B-14 Ambition : To be a druggist. Theo-Harmon Club 3 ; Literary Club. Independent! Indifferent! Apparently bored! Al¬ ways looking at the classroom clocks! Among the first to bolt out of the door at the change of classes. Usually prepared in his lessons ! Fond of chemistry. A lover of music—not history! Frowned upon school ! Caught smiling—sometimes ! Forever car¬ rying the weight of Atlas on his shoulders ! “3 mill ahum tmjarlf Ijirjljlii frb. attb lumlii taugljt.” C—T.» 26
