RAYMOND PULVER October 5, 1903 New Britain, Conn. He reads murh, he is a great observer, and he looks quite thru the deeds of men. Ray joined the class of 1920 at the outset of the Junior year. His appearance does not in any way check the apprecia- tion that he will complete his High School days with the class of 1920. Ray is a quiet, studious and ambitious young man and all who know him count his friendship priceless. Civics Club. LILLIAN ENGLISH Jan r ua y 20, 1902 New Britain, Conn. Her talk is like rt steam engine. Altho' Lillian is rather modest and tranquil, she forgets herself when reciting in class and a burst of winged words come forth. Lillian is a very friendly girl and will make her way in the world without a doubt as a competent stenographer. Civics Club. MARION MEEHAN February 19, 1903 New Britain, Conn. Little, but oh my! Mattie may be little but she certainly is not inconspic- uous, for she can easily be heard at all times. Perhaps that is why she left Room 303. We hear that she is very fond of that popular song DardaQnella. Marion plans to enter the business world next year where we are sure she will be a great success. Civics Club. RUTH IGOE October 14, 1901 New Britain, Conn. Deliver me from the opposite sex. Ruth is rather quiet and shy at first but not so when known. Ruth has been working mornings most of the time and therefore we don't know much about her. Whenever there is a special time schedule, Ruth makes a grand dive for the nearest theatre and there employs her time. Y. W. A. A.: Civics Club. 23

ALFRED SEIBERT December 21, 1901 Berlin, Conn, The Stage I choose, a subject fair and free. l Seibert has made a name for himself and is the only man 1n High School who can rival Booth. Time after time he has changed our amateur High School plays to the rank of profes- sional productions thru his splendid acting. He is headed straight toward stardom in Griflin's productions, the only drawback being-what will become of Laura? Treasurer C233 Amphion Club. MARY DONAHUE January 19, 1902 New Britain, Conn. A little pretty, witty Miss Appearances are often deceiving. To look at Mary one would think her a sub-freshman, but you'd be surprised, for Mary is a dignihed senior. Mary's hobby is dancing in which she has great ability. Ask But! Junior Prom Decorative Committee, Civics Clubg Freshman Reception Committee. LEONA CALLEN H New Britain, Conn. y. Through her four years with us Leona has been a good sport and has added many links to her chain of friendship. She certainly never worries, but tell us Leona, about Suffield? Enough of that-she is undecided about next year, but all know she will make a success of whatever she takes up. Civics Club. February 6, 1901 I should worr CLARA PEARL GETCHELL Oh, she was good as she was fair- None, none on earth above her: As pure in though! as angels are-To know her was I0 love her. Clara Pearl came all the way from Pennsylvania via Plainville to be one of the class of 1920. She may look Very shy, butgon Class Day she had her palm read-and to our surprise, she was found hirtatious. Yes, indeed. Very sur- prising. That will never do at Normal, Clara. 22

CLIFFORD FRANCES MURPHY December 30, 1902 New Britain, Conn. Let's make merry today and let tomorrow come as it will. Every word in the above quotation applies to Murph in its true sense. He believes in looking on the bright side of life all the time. We think his hobby is strolling up to the North End of the town Sunday nights-we wonder why? GENEVIEVE HAMILTON HGenl! October 21, 1903 Baltimore, Md. Given lo Hospitality. Yes, Gen surely has plenty of common sense and a good disposition to go with it. She is one of our quiet girls, but have you ever seen Gen when she didn't have a smile for you and was not ready to have a jolly good time? We all wish her the very best of good wishes for her future. MARY FEORE March 14, 1902 New Britain, Conn. A slenographer of no mean ability. Mary has made a specialty of stenography and has used it extensively in Civics. We wish we could find out how she does it. Outside of stenography she shines in Commercial Law under Professor J. C. Moody. Civics Clubg Athletic Association. MABEL O'MEARA February 11, 1900 New Britain, Conn. I am sure care's an enemy to life. Mabel believes in the old saying, Never trouble trouble until trouble troubles you. School seems to be the least of her troubles. Mabel certainly does not worry about getting to school-arriving any time before 9.30 suits her perfectly. We are glad she belongs to the class of 1920 and know she will be a success at office work next year. 24
