T USITALA PAULINE LLEWELLYN FIFIELD A quiet tongue .rltotvs at twist' head. Dark-haired and quiet was Pauline, but, when discovered , a true Dal. She believed that Kodak preserves the story, for she was always bringing to class snapshots in a variety of outdoor poses. Pauline was one of the lucky ones who was called up front when the Upper Fourth was read. She once drew an attractive cover for the Tatfler, and was, in fact, one of our coming artists. Viho knows, she may be a second Raphael! Lots of luck, Pauline! HANNAH FLETCHER Those eyes-the bliiext of Iliirzys gr0yJ Another fair-haired demoiselle and very popular. Remember when she wrote a poem which had a tall, young man with a dark brown suit as its hero? We're still trying to find out who that young man is. VVe suspect Hannah had a habit of doing her home-work late at night, because she used to reach school just with the last bell. That she displayed her abilities along many lines once she arrived here is shown by the following list: Tatfler Reporter I, Civics Club I, Drill Leader I, Il, III, Orchestra II, III, IV, Mandolin Club III, IV, Junior Dramatics Club Play, junior Prom Committee, Dramatics Club III, IV, Press Club IV, Merton of the Movies IV, Meri- den Parade CDemure Hower bearer? IV, Up- per Fourth, Associate Tusitala Editor IV, Class Prophet. LILLIAN REBECCA FLETCHER Sometimes fm filled with inspiration IVhich I delight to put in versef' Beccy was one of our poetically inclined members, and a natural choice for our Class Poet. How we loved to read her poems in the Tattler! Beccy was also an actress, displaying her talent as Flips Montague, the heroine of Merton of the Movies. Her fondness for the VVest was one Characteristic which fitted her to play so well the part of that breezy young lady. Remember her Everything all jake, trouper? Untroubled by temperament despite these talents, she en- joyed an industrious, successful four years with us as the following list testifies: Or- chestra II, III, IV fHow she played that celloll, Drill Leader I, III, Cheer Leader I, Meriden Flower Girl IV, School Notes Edi- tor Tattler IV, Upper Fourth.

TUSITALA LUCY ANNA FARMER In the mlm light of mild plziloxofvhyf' Calmness and mildness were Luey's out- standing qualities, and she was philosophical over the illness which when she was a junior forced her to leave school for a year. Vllhen she re-entered as a member of 1929, we gladly greeted a shy classmate who thought before she spoke, and went about her own affairs serenely and independently. Not a few dis- covered her capacity for true friendship, nevertheless. FRANCIS CHARLES FARRI-:LL HTIIFVL' is 710 low lost,-tomorrow aliuuyr comes. Francis is our class counterpart of Will Rogers. He never took life seriously, but was a happy-go-lucky fellow. He was a natural, fun-loving boy whose humorous themes and sayings won for him the dis- tinction of being chosen a Class Paragrapher. Francis played Baseball for the Purple Ill and IV, played Hockey II, and was an usher at the Senior Play. Be sure to keep on the pleasant side of life, and you will succeed. NAsoN WITHERELL F1':ssr:Nnl4:N Education is rzeressary to life. Lefty was very popular with his pals in Room 5. During his first three years at school he was rather quiet and reserved, but the spirit of fun and happiness in the class soon reached him Senior year. Lefty traveled forty miles a day to be educated, and was seldom late. Some of us traveled a mile and arrived late every morning. VVith that much ambition to start him on his way in life, we know he will succeed in whatever he undertakes.

TUSITALA DOROTHY MARGARET FOSDICK Praise from a friend, or censure from a foe, Are lost on hearers that our merits lm0'zu.', Dot is one of those girls who just to spite the Paragrapher didn't make herself conspicuous. But her friends all knew her many merits, and she had no foes to censure her. All of us, in fact, knew Dot as a quiet and reliable person whose presence on Upper Fourth was a foregone conclusion. She was on the Candy Committee of Two Vagabonds III and of The Belle of Barce- lona IV. Also she helped feed the hungry mouths at Lunch Counter IV. Romziucx PAUL FRASER His hair, his voice, his looks, and honest soul Speak all so movingly in his behalf I dare not trust myself to hear him talk. Behold, we have beauty and modesty per- sonified in R0ddy. His curls and smiles go consistently together. He was conspicuous for his inconspicuousness. His blush, how- ever, attracted the females like a loadstone, though he was too bashful to bother with them. Never in a hurry, he always wanted to keep in the background-that is, until mis- chief was to be done, and then, we would Hnd Roddy at the bottom of the pile. He was out for Baseball I and II. EDWARD josEPH GAFFNEY It is the tranquil people 'who accomplish most. I Ted was the most tranquil and reserved fellow in the class, but we suspect his quiet powers of observation and whimsical humor furnished him much private amusement. There was no doubt that he had a keen imagination and real. literary ability. For all his noticeable silence, he was proficient in his studies, and a faithful performer of any task given him. He was a member of Debating Club IV, and an usher at Merton of the Movies.
