THE NEUME 19 3 6 NANCY DeFRANCESCO Salem, Massachusetts Pianoforte — Marie A. Gil let S A I; Secretary Senior Class; Chairman Ring Committee. Industrious, friendly and a boon to the class of ' 36. Nancy will be remembered in times of stress by those she ' s helped; we ' ll miss having her around. Her loyalty to the class stands out. We think she will advance as a leader in many things. GUGLIELMINA FIORENTINO Jamaica Plain, Massachusetts Pianoforte — Mr. Stevens S A I ; Chairman Bridge and Whist Committee ; Ring Committee. Sincere and pleasant to meet, with a high sense of honor, Buzzie is a friend to all who know her. We remember the bridge party she organized and supported so whole- heartedly. She proved to be a leader and we can say it ' s a pleasure to work for her. HARRY J. GAUMOND Worcester, Massachusetts School M usic — Mr. Findlay Conservatory Orchestra; Band ; Associate Editor Conservatory News; Student Council. Bud has to his credit the founding and organization of the Student Council. Although he runs innumerable dance bands in his home town, he still manages to appear at school activities. We are grateful for his school spirit. PRENTICE S. GREEN Wellesley, Massachusetts Bass — Mr. Kunze P M A; Sinfonia; Conservatory Orchestra. Pete is a gentleman with little leisure. This is un- fortunate as Pete is such a cheerful looking person that those who don ' t know him wish they did; and those who do, wish he would stick around longer. S4

19 3 6 THE NEUME LESTER EMIL BRESSON Farrington, Connecticut Violin — Mr. Peirce Conservatory Orchestra The mystery man — now you see him, now you don ' t. Maybe it ' s because he ' s so busy with school and outside work. Talent? Yes, we ' re sure of that and wish him luck in whatever he undertakes in the future. JEAN CALHOUN Bangor, Maine Pianoforte — Mr. Cornell Likeable, attractive and full of fun. with a hidden talent for letter-writing. We ' ve enjoyed knowing her while here at school and wish her best of luck for the future. FLORENCE MARY CARILLI Milton, Massachusetts Voice — Mr. Whitney Vivacious and active with plenty of spirit. Florence, we think, is headed for the opera. If so, all good wishes go with her — she ' s sure to succeed. BERTRAND CHOMBEAU Lawrence, Massachusetts Pianoforte — Mr. Godinq An all-around good fellow with a zest for studying. The things he can accomplish are nothing short of remark- able. Bert is such a friendly person to meet. He usually has something interesting to talk about. 23

19 3 6 THE NEUME BOLESLAUS CYRIL GRYNKIEWICZ East Cambridge, Massachusetts Pianoforte — Mrs. Mason Irish or Grynki, notwithstanding, his classical virtuosity seems to have as an aim in life, the duplication of the piano chorus of Tiger Rag as rendered by one Ray Noble. Only one break still eludes even his nimble fingers. CLAIRE FRANCES HARRINGTON Boston, Massachusetts Violin — Mr. Keller Assistant Editor of NEUME; Student Council; Con- servatory Orche.itra. We are indebted in no small way to Claire for the success of the Neume. She is a good class member and a pleasant friend, besides being an excellent violinist. CLARENCE WARREN HELSING Worcester, Massachusetts Organ — Mr. Humphrey Independently sincere — sincere in his independence. Clarence is a quiet, undemonstrative fellow but most congenial. L nbelievably precise where studies are con- cerned. In the organ department, yes, but that ' s a bas- soon he carries around in that big black case. MARGUERITE ELIZABETH HODGMAN Fort Kent, Maine Voice — Mrs. Ellis Marguerite is the fortunate owner of a voice with con- siderable potentialities. Her persistent study has brought out these eventualities to a high state of realization. Keep up the good work. 25
