1 9 3 9 YEAR BOOK JAMES P. SHAW Chefs’ Club 4 The burdens of life don’t seem to bother Jimmy. He always has a big; grin or a witty remark. Inci¬ dentally he’s not a bad singer, either. NELLIE SUMMERS Dramatic Club 4 •‘Year Book” Staff 4 Nellie will be remembered for her contagious smile and her witty remarks. With her sense of styie, and ability as a costume designer, success is not far away. FRANK A. THOMPSON Dramatic Club 1 Chefs’ Club 3 Chemistry Club 2 A.A. Play, Stage Mgr. 4 Here’s a boy that is tail, dark, and handsome, with a vengeance. More than that: he’s friendly, well- liked, and has a discouraging (to the rest of us) aptitude for physics. RUTH A. WHITTAKER Class Secretary 2 Cheer Leader 4 Class Sec’y-Treas. 3, 4 Dramatic Club 2 Sub-Deb Club 3, President 4 Student Council, Sec’y-Treas. 3, 4 Ruthie’s friendly disposition and bright smile have combined to make her one of the most popular girls of our class. We need people like Ruthie to brighten up this glum old world. PHILIP M. YOUNG “Deke is right but the world’s strange;” at least Deke often gives voice to this opinion. He is a good sport and has the rare quality of being a true friend. Here’s hoping you get that goalie job with the Boston Bruins, Deke! SHIRLEY R. NUSSBAUM Dramatic Club 1, 3, 4 Glee Club 2 Nussie may seem like a quiet little thing to some people, but she’s really quite a girl— with what a voice! (Eh, Bobby?) We know she’ll find success and happi¬ ness with that happy-go-lucky disposition of hers. WINIFRED A. TEMPLE Friday night means sea food to most of us, but to Win, it’s a dance, or a show, or something; and it’s steady. ROBERT D. TURNER Chefs’ Club 3 Basketball Mgr. 4 Ass’t Sports Manager 3 Sam is a carefree sort of guy, and is always ready for a good laugh. He can really buckle down to work when he wants to, though. VIRGINIA B. WOODHOUSE Dramatic Club 1 Student Council 1 Sub-Deb Club, Vice-President 4 Virginia is a tall, attractive girl, but the J.H.S. boys have not had much chance with her, because she’s monopolized by a certain fel¬ low from Andover. We are sure she’ll succeed as a hairdresser, if she makes her customers’ hair look anything like her own. JAMES G. H. YULE, JR. Baseball 3, 4 Basketball 4 Football 4 Chefs’ Club 4 Although Jim came to us late, he has certainly shown his worth. His contagious grin and “happy-go- lucky” manner will always stand him in good stead. 13

Chemistry Club 4 The handsome man with the voice! (even though he doesn’t let us hear it very often.) Quiet, yes, but “Still waters run deep.” RUTH B. RICHARDSON Dramatic Club 1, 2 Glee Club 4 French Club 3 Ruthie’s philosophy throughout her school life has been, “Doing something for someone will bring you far more happiness than doing someone for something.” Need we say more ? IDA P. NARUSHOF Dramatic Club 3 Sub-Deb Club 4 Etiquette Club 2 Introducing to you one of our most lovable seniors. She is iden¬ tified by her pleasant smile and sweet manner.

PITKIN Glee Club 1 French Club, President 3 Chemistry Club, Treasurer 2 Hobby Club, President 4 “Journal” Staff 3, 4 “Year Book” Staff 4 Loie is a quiet, reserved young lady who has a knack of asking Miss Chapman odd questions in physics class. HELENE M. RICHARD A.jA. Play 2 Dramatic Club 2 French Club 3 Glee Club, Vice-President 4 A smile will go a long, long way. Look how far Helene has gone with it already! You can’t feel lonely, sad, or blue, when Helene turns that smile on you! ELIZABETH V. ROBERTS Glee Club 1 Etiquette Club 2 Cheer Leader 2, 3, 4 Dramatic Club, Sec’y-Treas. 4 Petite Betty’s pouting expi’ession has really become famous with us. How do you do it, Betty? As for her popularity— Well, you know the answer. 12

With your natural good humor as an aid, success should be easy to win. WALTER KOZLOWSKI Chefs’ Club 4 Walter is a quiet fellow in school. His interests are fishing, farming, and roaming in the woods. Re¬ member, Walter, the farmer is the backbone of the country. AMERIC P. LANNI Football 3, 4 Basketball 4 Chefs’ Club 3 Americ is one of the big boys of the school. He likes to take part in the rougher sports but that doesn’t stop him from gracing the dance floor. He’s quite a stepper (not on the girls’ toes.) JAMES F.
