II I fl p ' we K - . 5, 'ol I w f HELEN M. GREMILA New Britain, Conn. Toni April 29, 1919 A'The best part of beauty is that which a picture cannot express The only time Toni is quiet is when she is day-dreaming. Foot- ball games, dancing, and parties occupy most of her time. Shall I also include Study to the list, Helen? All kidding aside, we found Toni to be a friendly and good natured classmate. We will kid you, though, about your susceptibleness for football players. Toni is not sure of her future plans, but we know that she will come through with Hying colors. Girls' League. LESTER COOK GOODRICH New Britain, Conn. A'Bud june Zo, 1918 Lazy people take most pains 'iBud took the electrical course at the Trade School. A man just has to do something, you know.

He is very popular with the ladies and has a host of friends, both boys and girls. 1-le's a good-time pal and a regular fellow, that is, until someone mentions a job. N B.S. T.S. A.A.2,3,4-.

Mitzi june 30, 1919 Minh, admit me of thy crew, To live with her, and live with thee In unreproved pleasures free Heres to i'Mitzi , one of our prettiest and sincerest friends! We'll let you in on a secret: Mitzi was thrilled to her toes when Mr. Howard gave her a 'ininetyn in Problems of Democracy. This doesn't sound thrilling, but 'ilvlitzin has been doing a lot of worrying, lf she goes on in her secretarial work, we will expect to see her name in gilt letters. We're all for you, Mitzil Girls' League. JOSEPH EDWARD LEPAK Hartford, Conn. 'lfoen February 21, 1918 Tomorrow let us do or die The likeable chap whose witty sayings are yet to be bettered is none other than the fourth floor coat-room tender, joe Lepak. His chief asset is the ability to bump into a certain Miss at regular intervals. joe is a fine likeable lad who came to us from the great insurance city, Hartford. Of course such a congenial lad is popular with the gentle Eves. .Joe likes any color, so come on, girls, We hope you will be successful in any of your undertakings. MARGARET ROBERTSON HALL Arlington, Mass. uPeggy August 2, 1919 A wise girl will make more opportunities than she jindsn Peggy's many interests in school, coupled with her outside ac- tivities, have kept her very busy during her three years in High School.

i x . I 11 lei gt V i , . ff l i ff' JOSEPH EDWARD KISKIS New Britain, Conn. Babe january 16, 1919 U1 lrowe that countenance cannot lie, Whose thoughts are legible in the eie Somehow he always manages to keep his nose in a war time con- dition, and the causes range from mouse-traps to Mack trucks. i'Babe is the genius in the Math. class and no matter what happens, he never loses his sunny disposition. Maybe, it is the suspenders he wears which attracts the weaker sex, or is it his personal imagination? If all goes well, we, his fellow students, may have to address him as Admiral Kiskis, because he is doing well in the competitive exams for entrance to Annapolis. LILLIAN CAROLINE GINSBERG New Britain, Conn. i'Lily january 31, 1919 1 count myself in nothing else so-happygas a soul remembering my good friends We do wish that you wouldnt stick to your points of argument, Lily , and give us a chance to say something once in a while. Lily has an extensive vocabulary and doesn't hesitate to use it. The Trade School will miss A'Lily because she has danced in three successive shows. We don't know what your future plans are, but the class wishes you success. Girls' League. EDWARD JULIAS KOONZE New Britain, Conn. A'Ed january 16, 1919 Though his suit was rejected, He sadly reflected That a lover forsaken A new love may get 'iEd loves to do home work and is crazy about reciting during a class period. He goes in for sports and likes the opposite sex, but doesn't seem to use the right technique in landing a girl. He is a wizard at dancing and does the new steps like nobody's business. But all in all, Ed Koonze is a great guy and friend. Maybe he will follow in the steps of his brothers and join the Navy to become an Admiral. Who knows? Page Z8 MARY NELLIE GRAZLAVICH New Britain, Conn. Minnie july 30, 1917 'iMy way is to begin at the beginning Mary can get excited over the slightest thing, She can talk you deaf, dumb, and blind when you get to know her. Mary also has her serious moments, for she always has her school work prepared on time. We hear that your ambition is to be a stenographer. You can be sure that there is always a place for a good one, Girls' League. ZIGMUND JOSEPH KULAS New Britain, Conn. Ziggy August 16, 1918 A' Keep up appearancesg there lies the test 'AZiggy , as he is called, can be distinguished by his appearance. He is a tall, lanky fellow, sociable and good-natured. He is usually found either in the bookkeeping room or in the Office Practice class, so we assume he is somewhat of an accountant. During his spare time he is a shoe salesman. This work probably requires keen judgment when it comes to fitting shoes to certain dames. We hope his customers leave satisfied. His ambition is to become a business man and he has certainly succeeded in getting a fine start. Baseball.

Il fl p I ' -V K . , .Je I if ' , f HAROLD LIFSHITZ New Britain, Conn. 'iHal May 21, 1919 Oh, it is excellent to have a giant's strength Harold is that 6' 2 red head who has the faculty of making every- thing seem funny. Some of his outstanding accomplishments are tennis, dancing, drawing, and the ability to dress in excellent taste. Besides this, he is Miss Weld's prize math pupil. Say, Harold, who is that stunning West Hartford brunette who deprives New Britain girls of a thrill? Best of luck, Harold, With a personality like yours, you are certain to succeed in your future work of being a good business man. Phi Beta Fraternity, Tennis, Banquet Committee. DORIS MARIE HANSON New Britain, Conn. October 1, 1918 i'Women and Music should never be dated Doris is that sweet young lady who always wears a smile and is seen between periods at the Phi Sigma Post. She expects to become a business woman, but with all her male admirers, we can't predict what the future will hold. Whatever you do, Doris, we're pulling for you strong. Girls' Leagueg Phi Sigma Sorority. ZINADA HARKO ' New Britain, Conn, Zip April 3, 1918 What is greater than these- Willingness and a desire to please Zip's chatter and humorous stories will be missed by us all, Combining her wit and good looks, we get personality. Recently she has been seen mo0ning quite often. We have our suspicions, 'iZip , and you can't get away with it. Try some of that wit, Zip , when you take the boss's dictation. You probably will get a raise, Girls' League, Alpha Omicron Sorority. EUGENE MURRAY LOCKETT Salem, Mass. 'iGene May 6, 1919 Quickly enough if done well enough Gene is the small dark haired boy that may be seen tearing hither and thither around the school corridors. He was a member of the tennis squad and swung a mean racket on the court. It remains a mystery to us though how such a petite individual can get around so many places. Gene's ambition is to go to college, and we know suc- cess will await him at whatever institution he enrolls. Tennis Squad. NATALIE DORIS HERMANN New Britain, Conn. i'Nat May 5, 1919 All are architects of fate Building in these walls of time Nat , that small girl with the jet black hair, is a carefree per- sonality, School work and probably nothing else will ever make Nat consume all the midnight oil. Though you have no definite plans for the future, your nonchalant attitude ought to help you to stay as you are now at seventeen. Phi Delta Sorority, Girls' League. Page 30 ,
