TUSITALA RALPH CROSBY Grave in his aspect and attire. If you don't know who Ralph is, just ask anyon-e to show you one of the Bessc Col- leqianfs and he-or she-will point out Ralph. Ther-e's no doubt about it, Ralph surely set the styles in N. H. S., and why shouldn t he? He was always springing new creations in shirts which we al-1 en- vied. As an usher at the Sen-ior Play and as one -of the dancers in Bob White IV, he used his Beau Brummeln air to good advantage. His high school career was a varied and popular on-e and we are sure his New Hampshire University one will be the same. C. LESLIE CURTICE And waste his 'music on a savage race. Les just fiddl-ed his way through N. H. S. What would the orchestra have been without him, for he played in it all four years? And we all remember his violin solo which .he played with such marked skill in music assembly IV. Les should go far with his violin, and with the ladies, too. At our Junior Prom he took B-ob McLau.g'hlin's place a-t the ahead of the Grand March, since our business manager was unfortunate enough to be on the sick list. He was a Tattler reporter II, in the chorus of Princess Bonnie III, orchestra lead-er for Bob White IV, and last but d-ecid-ed'ly not least, composed the music for our class song. ROSE DAVIS Much 'is she worth and even more is she 'made of. Ros-e is one of our quiet, res-erved girlsg jollly and interestinlg if you knew her well, but with iust a .sweet smile for you if you had never broken through the reserve. Rose's- hearty 1-augfh was like spring' tonic. Rose l-iked domestic sci-ence and saved her fun for hours outside of school.. We pre- dict a domestic future.

TUSITALA BARBARA COLLINS A friend with all. An enemy with none. If you felt blue or grouchy, all you had to dowas to look at or speak to Ba.bs. S-he certainly had many friends in N. H. S., and no wonder-who could resist that dimpled smile? Babs added much to the popularity of Dowd's Candy Sho-p by her pres-ence behind the so-da counter. She took part in Glorious Girl I, M-arc'heta II, Princess Bonnie III, Domestic Science Play IV, Miss Bob White IV, and' also sang in Gl-ee Club IV. RUSSELL A. COLLINS All orators are dumb when beauty pleaolethf' Rus-sell was an all-around fellow! He had brains, business ability, popularity, could act, dance, and-talk! ! I He was also a past master of the art of forgetting or losing anything, from his l-essons to his class book paragraphs-and getting away with it, too! His genial a.ttitude won for him an un-usual host of friends-indeed we p1 edict he will never b-e lo'n-e-some-unless he loses one of those friendships. We hope some kind soul will give him a pair of the m-ost fl-exibier rubber heels for a gradu- ation present. Although he did not join our class until junior year, after an absence from Nashua, he speedily became o-ne of us, as his varied activities show. Junior Dance Committee III, Class Basket-ball III, Princess Bonnie III, D-eba-ting Club IV, Dramatics Club IV, Miss Bob White IV, Paragrapher for Cllass Book IV. p KENNETH CROCKETT A careless boy at times he seemedg But at his desk he had the look And air of one who wisely schemedf' The boy from the city of South' Nashua! Crockett was very widely known because he served gasoline at the S-outh Nashua gas station. He di-d not come to us until our junior year, but this did not prevent his finding a Way into many a heart, he hadi :su-ch a comical, dry way with him.

TUSITALA REYNOLD DEAN Absence makes the heart grow fon'der. Apparently this was true with Reynold, since although he came to school o-nly two periods a day -our, Senior year, he was eager to 'be counted a. member of our class. His ambition thus' to complete his educa- tion while learning the dry-goods bu.siness, leads us to 'prophesy that in a few years there will be a sign on Main Street reading Speare and Dean. ALBERT DESMARAIS All I want is a typewriter. ' Albert was a speedy typist who pined to spend all his spare time in the typing room. We .shou1dn t be surprised if some day he became a champion. Albert was the quaiete-st chap in the class, which is saying quite a .good deal. We are sure however, he 'has a hidden sense of humor. We wish you the best of luck in everything you unudertake, Albert! HELEN LOUISE DOWNEY A girl who can work, a girl who com play, A girl wh,o's ct pal to you every day. Helen was fond of sports-and was a sport herself! A great basketball enthus- iast, by h-e-r playing she made others en- thusiastic. Sfhe could wield a charcoal pen- cil or -paint brush fto advantage, and was an acciomiplished' violinist. If her high school days ar prophetic, she will not go through life withoiut friends.
