Jodie Wfgam gadan, r. 20 Locksley Road, Newton Centre BUD The smile that xvon't COIHC OH. -Standish Born july 1, 1922 Harvard it Mx Baseball, 1938-393 Football, 19395 Hockey, 1938-39, Captain, 1939, Tennis, 1938-39, Dramatic Club, 19395 Class Book: Glee Club, 1938-393 Megaphone, 1938-39. XVhen this little ray of sunshine joined our class in january, 1938, we were all affected by his cocky manner. Bud injected new joy of living land foolingj into what had been, up till then, one of the most studious classes in the school. He is the best all-round athlete in the school, he plays number one on the tennis team, was half-back on the football team until he hurt his ankle, was the high-scoring center on the hockey team last winter, and is at present the star shortstop of the baseball team, rating high in batting prowess. Bud has been accused of not taking things seriously, but that's not true, whenever he comes to school without any work at all done, he worries about it fully a quarter of a minute before dismissing it forever from his mind. 'ABud's quick wit and snappy rcpartee cause some of us to feel like dying with laughter, others just feel like dying. VVith all his activities on the sehool's athletic teams, it seems strange that he should have time for so many outside activities, but it is said that his gray Ford is a sight familiar to all Newton High girls, and that in summer he Ends time to wander over some of the easier golf courses around Scituate in the low seventies. If Bud can add a little talent for blufling to his irrepressible good humor and pep, he will travel far in the more prosaic side of life, that of earning a living. 'd6c3v

Many Seniors have been studying Bobs work habits, but none has been able to figure out how hc can talk through a whole study period and have his Physics done at the end. Bob possesses the admirable faculty of getting work done while being sociable. Considering the fact that he spends his class periods designing streamlined cars on his notebook, and that he spends his study periods entertaining his classmates behind the locked doors of his study or else in planning and executing new practical jokes on the studies of absent Seniors, he does well in his subjects. Bobs quick and keen mind has helped him in more than class work. Right now he is manager of the baseball team. Last winter he ran the Dramatic Club pro- duction as secretary-treasurer, and almost eycry year of his six years at Country Day he has taken part in the play itself. He has spent thc fall seasons playing football. It this class book appears in print it will be mainly through the efforts of Bob Chase. In fact, he is always engaged in extra-curricular activities. It Bob would only look less 'bored in class and pretend to be interested, as some of his classmates do, he would get better marksg but, as it is, he gives masters and Seniors the impression that he never does any work, which is erroneous, because he always gets to school with his work done.

VVe do not see much of Paul as he leaves early almost every afternoon and is cooped up in his study all day except during history. Returning after class wc End the results of his work and realize that he could not have been studying all the time. Probably the most agreeable fellow in our class, Paul can be relied upon to do his duty every time. He is a boy who really deserved to be elected to the Illini, and we are proud to have him represent us on the Student Council. There are two Paul Haleys: one, the serious student who so often has his name on the honor rollg and Paul. the prankster, who is forever thinking up crazy stunts to pull on his classmates. lLord knows how he does itll He is very active in behalf of the Megaphone, and of course his proficiency lor is it bull-slingingl in Latin makes him a member of the Latin Club. Last year, as President of the Dramatic Club, he aided in producing the best show Country Day has seen in a long time. Paul was a star member of all the athletic teams. until two years ago. when he was placed on the sidelines with a kidney injury. Paul is thc third Haley to graduate from this school and Country Day would certainly be fortunate to have another Haley to carry on their excellent records. 2575s
