The choicest one, of course, is Agnes Halloran and the harmony of their friendship rivals that of two people approach- ing their golden wedding anniversary. Clothes seem to be her dominant interest, proved by the fact that she always appears in the latest style. May you always keep your pleasant nature. junior College Club, Girls' League Representative, Senior Girl Adviser, Banquet Committee, Secretary of Class X2, Xl? ANDRE ASHBY ARCAND, JR. Waterbury, Conn. Andy December 2, 1922 A man is known by his friends That tall lanky personage one sees ambling through the halls of our noble institution, seemingly without a care in the world and who answers to that movie star-like name of Andre Arcand, is recognized by eminent authorities as an expert on that difficult theory of how to accomplish the most with the least effort. This appearance is completely deceiving. Under this nonchalant devil-may-care attitude, one uncovers intelligence, ability, ambition and savoir faire, with which we feel Andy can't help but succeed in his chosen held of chemistry.

Curly's been labeled a ladies' man and we hear that when he casts those eyes toward the opposite sex and adds a smile, they're completely under his power. Curly makes a good pal and we'll certainly miss his little fingers which do such big things on the piano. The business field is to claim him. All his friends join with us in wishing him great success for those years to come. Glee Club, Civic Forum MABEL LOUISE BALCH Bristol, Conn. Mabe August 15, 1922 I hasten to laugh al everything If you hear say now or a joyous burst of laughter you can be sure it's Mabe coming.
