NEW BEDFORD HIGH ROBERT FERGUSON Nov. 5, 1903 Scientific eek, Rodman Brown Bob doesn’t seem to care much for this last term. We'll bet the last graduation took all the joy from his young life. But he still brings her to the dances, so hie must be different outside. How about it, Bob? You'll soon read of his winning the world’s walking champion- ship. Fergie is some artist, and has many of his master- pieces hidden from the gaze of the world. It is a joy supreme to hear Bob blowing away on his “Saxie” in the band. Keep on your good work at Brown, Bob. Senior Dance Committee, Band, Orchestra, Class Secretary. SCHOOL 1G CLARENCE GIFFORD Aug. 19, 1904 Scientific Dartmouth High Boston Nautical Now which is it, Westport or South Dartmouth? We all say Westport, but our country lad says that the other is the place where he sleeps in summer and other periods of relaxation from hard labor on the hill. Giffie did a very wise thing when he left Dartmouth High for our more illustrious school. He is one of the few that has a little dope on chemistry and math and consequently he occupies, in company with a few others, the throng of the al mighty up in Room 309. Gifford is going to be our sea captain and we all await in eager anticipation, his invitation for a trip to Africa. a bright future, Clarerice: ELIZABETH GOLDSTEIN Feb. 15, 1903 Commercial Allen F. Wood Boston University Next on the list comes our auburn haired damsel. She is very popular (?) among the boys of the Com- mercial course. Elizabeth is the rival of Catherine, but her talk is more of a prattle, and when she steps on the gas, watch out boys. We have often enjoyed her sweet voice when the Girl’s Glee Club was put on exhibition. B. U. is very fortunate to receive you, Elizabeth, and we all wish you luck. Girls’ Glee Club. Wish you luck and

12 RED ANDO WHITE JOHN THOMAS CONWAY Jan. 25, 1904 Scientific H. M. Knowlton University of Vermont The class is fortunate in having so many athletes among them Conway. John is certainly popular, espe- cially with the girls. If anyone wants to know how to become popular with the girls ask Conway. John is certainly one of our best athletes as his record shows. Conway has three specialties—girls, athletics, and more girls. Vermont will have a good athlete when Conway arrives. k. O. T.

Committee. EDITH MARIE DAVENPORT Jan. 30, 1904 College R. C. Ingraham Wheaton We wonder if Edith will keep up horse-back riding after she leaves high school. Surely it is a most invig- orating sport. Edith does not waste words but says what she means, especially in French, when she feels herself abused. She has the record for automobile acci- dents in our class. One more tag, Edith, and good-bye license. Vice President, Freshman Reception Committee, Sen- ior Prom Committee, Dramatic Club. FRANCES MABEL DeLOID Dec. 4, 1904 College James B. Congdon Smith Frances would do well to join a debating society for she never admits defeat. Her special hobby is arguing with Mr. Dupin. Her arguments with Herbert enliven class meetings quite often. Which one of us will trust our posterity to her in future years to come, for you know she is to be a teacher. Smith College will be glad to receive another New Bedford Valedictorian. Valedictorian, Banquet Committee, Woman's Club Representative.

14 RED VAND WELLE CLARENCE EDMUND GREGORY Aug. 18, 1902. Scientific ReeOuinerahain, Andover Gregory is the fashion plate of our class, and if you wish to see the latest, look him up. By the way, C. Edmund is our class Treasurer. Don’t ever commission him to get any money for you, because pleasure always comes before business. He never takes any books home, except as a necessary evil, and then they are just taken home and brought back in the morning. Never mind, Clarence, they will be glad when the wind blows you to Andover. Class Treasurer, Second Lieutenant R. O. T. C., Boys Glee Club. CATHERINE LOUISE GRIMSELA W Aug. 16, 1904 College Parker Street N. B. Textile Schoo! Behold one of the most popular girls in our class. Catherine is beloved (?) by both the students and teachers on the hill. The only trouble with her is that the “flood gates” are too easily opened, as our French and Latin classes can bear witness. You ought to hear her talk. She has Cicero beaten, and the only one of our noble mates who dares to oppose her, is our Arthur. We ought to have a girls’ debating team. With Cat as captain the team would bring home the bacon every time. Textile will have a noteworthy addition to its student body when Catherine arrives. JENNIE HALPRIN April 4, 1904 General H. M. Knowlton Undecided Who is that cute little girl tripping down the corri- dor’. Oh! That’s Jennie , Halprin; famous sactreua= dancer, and charmer of males. Perhaps some day we all shall occupy a box seat to see her as Lady Macbeth. We never notice Jennie worrying much about studies, but she always gets by. Although she does not know where she is going after leaving her Alma Mater, we are sure that Jennie will always be welcome. Dramatic Club.
