Noel L. Gomez Football Varsity (4), Letter (4). A shy and rather modest member of our class, Noel is often seen taking long strides to and from school. It’s no secret that he’d rather be out on the fifty yard line than in study hall doing math problems. However, you can be sure he’ll make the best of any situation. What’s next for this popular guy? Marine Corps, of course! He’ll make some one a good top sergeant. Pablo I). Gomez “Pab” Football J. V. (2), Varsity (3, 4). Letter (3, 4), Captain (4); Basket- ball J. V. (2), Varsity (3, 4), Letter (3, 4); Class treasurer (2); Pro- Merito (4); Projectionist (2); Silver “M” (4); Junior Prom Invitations Committee Chairman (3); Boys State (3). Tall, dark, and handsome, Pab is any football coach’s or school girl’s dream. Anyone would be envious of his many honors—his scholastic achievements, his being chosen Boys State representative, and his term as student City Manager. How will he use his talents in the future? He’ll be a top engineer, we think. David J. Goodall “Dave” Basketball Varsity (4), Letter (4); Baseball J. V. (1. 2). It’s impossible to name a sport that Dave doesn’t enjoy. This year he has been one of the wheels on “Brown’s Bug- gy”; and before that he was a baseball star. Outside of school this husky fellow loves to dance and, according to the grape- vine, is quite a card shark. Some people say that he is a gour- mand and others assert he is a gourmet—well, anyway, Dave just loves to eat! Francis R. Herring One of the hunters in our midst, Francis loves to take trips to Montreal and other far-away places. Always game for fun and excitement, even Francis’ name means “free”. For some strange reason, as soon as Francis leaves at 3:26 his smile becomes at least an inch broader. He’s never told us, but we think his motto must be—“We have but one life so let’s live and let live”.

H. Joseph Follett “Joie Ski Team Varsity J. V. (1), Varsity (2, 3); Baseball Manager (1); Freshman Chorus (1), Boys’ Chorus (2), Mixed Chorus (2); “The Fortune Teller” (1); Projectionist (1, 2, 3); Ticket Squad (1, 2, 3). A butch haircut, a friendly smile, and a real cool pair of orange slacks seem to describe Joe. Oh, we forgot to men- tion that lovely green convertible! Perhaps you think all this adds up to the perfect ladies’ man? Well, he does seem to have a way with the girls, but we notice that he’s usually talking with the fellows while the gals are trying to break the sound barrier. You have to be on the qui vive to keep up with Joie. Wayne L. Foster Band (2, 3, 4), All-State Band (4); Pro-Merito (4); Solonscope (4). During the last four years Wayne has often been seen studying math, blowing his trombone, answering difficult questions correctly, or dealing out the cards in Room 2 dur- ing the noon hour. Mix a subtle sense of humor with intelli- gence and wit, and you’re bound to come up with Wayne! Keep your eyes on this boy—he’s going places. Donald C. Gauthier “Don” Remember when Don used to blush and cringe every time a girl came within ten feet of him? Those days are no more—now he’s the center of their attentions. And we no- tice that he doesn’t seem to mind them, either. We haven’t heard him say much about the future, but probably it will be something mathematical, scientific, or even historical. Robert J. Glass “Bob1’ Class Valedictorian (4); Pro-Merito (4); Ticket Squad (2); Boys State (4). Take a good look at this fellow because you’ll be seeing more of him in the future. Here’s a confidential tip—we think we may have another Einstein. Of course he just laughs at us. He’s too busy keeping that straight A average to be bothered with such speculations; so he works and we speculate. Because Bob is so reserved, he’ll probably never tell us whether he’s sending his luggage to Yale or M. I. T. next fall.

“Meme” Muriel A. Hill G.A.A. (1, 2, 3, 4), 50 Point Award (2), 100 Point Award (3), 200 Point Award (4); Masque (1, 2, 3, 4), Pin (4), Letter (4), Assistant Business Manager (3), Business Manager (4), “Curious Savage” (4), “Dear Ruth” (3), Variety Show (4), “Sorry, Wrong Number” (4), “She Stoops to Conquer” (3); Freshman Chorus (1), Girls’ Glee Club (2, 3); Solonscope (1, 2, 3, 4); Freshman Reception Committee Chair- man (4); Junior Prom Committee Chairman (3); Style Show (1). This little lass’ idea of an enjoyable life would include skating, and bowling a little, smiling and dating A LOT. (We might mention Norwich, just in passing.), helping Masque and Solonscope along, studying a little more than enough, and swooning over an idol such as Elvis. Meme’s twinkling eyes prove that she loves fun, even if it involves a dash of deviltry. Perhaps that’s why we all love Meme! Clayton C. Holmes “Clayt” A chauffeur deluxe—that’s Clayton! His quiet amicabil- ity creates an air of mysteriousness which many girls pon- der over as he rolls into the MHS parking lot in a ’54 blue Ford. Never say die, girls! This is one person who’s looking for a—SUCCESSFUL FUTURE. One of you might qualify. William H. Huttenlock ‘Bill' Football Varsity (2, 3), Letter (2, 3), Co-Captain (3); Basketball J. V. (1, 2); Baseball Varsity (2, 3), Letter (2); Class Secretary- Treasurer (1); Band (1, 2); Record Board (4). Silence is golden. This is what we said about Bill when he first arrived at MHS—but now! Though not loud nor bossy, Bill is no longer so reserved since he has become established here. In fact, we find it rather hard to keep up with him. Active in his church youth group, Bill has a logical mind and a keen understanding of people. We might also add that he’s found a very understanding person, too. Harry A. Jay When you think of planes, what senior do you associate with these ships of the air? Who else but Harry Jay! Never still for more than two minutes, Harry is constantly running about in an official and decisive manner. His free time is de- voted to the Air National Guard and combing Camels Hump looking for more material concerning planes. There’s very little doubt where Harry’s trail into the future leads. Here’s to blue skies and happy landings!
