RAVELIN 'S HELEN CATHERINE DALEY Billie We saw her charming, but saw not half the charm her down-cast modesty concealed. One of the lightest rays of sunshine in Oxford High School. Whenever one is down hearted or angry, she easily brings him out of that mood by her smile which can never be mistaken or taken away, for it always seems to be part of her. She is very often seen at Montroses'-Helen is a very popular girl in school because of her abilities and activities. Sho seems to be in everything. Because of her great dancing ability. we hope she can dance through life. It will be very difficult to replace Helen when she leaves dear old O. H. S.

MARJORIE NELLIE DAVIS Marje Her ways are ways of pleasantnessf' Where, Oh where did Marjie acquire that d-r-a-W-l. It cer- tainly is catchy, Don't you iust picture hearing her sayQ That's s-w-e-l-l. Marje surely is jolly, obliging and tender. When you hear, Miss Davis. the key is on my desk, get some typing paper. you know that Miss Bu'ke is her true friend. Another thing, did you ever see Marie without her companion, Elsie? Her work has been successful in poetry cl r'ng the four years and now we all wish her that same luck during the coming years.

DOROTHY REED EAMES l.D0t,, A blithe heart makes a blooming visagef' A click, click, clack of high heels is heard coming across the hall, and then a cheery voice calls out Hey, Blanche. Yes, it is Dot Eames. Dot has just heard another good story and she must look up her friend and some of her classmates to tell it to. Dot has a cheery disposition, no one can stay downcast when Dot is around. Do you wonder that we never find her alone? We all know Dot likes to travel, far and wide. Neatness is Dot's chief char- acteristic. Who wouldn't like to have a chemistry and science notebook and a model bookkeeping set like hers. Dot would like to go to Becker College-hope she gets there. But, that dream-trip to California is getting her. That probably will be her first stopping place. We hope she doesn't forget to send us cards from all parts of the world.

RAVELIN 'S KARL MUNROE CHENEY Carl We will not stand to prateg talkers are no good doersf' Carl is very fond of chemistry. He likes nothing better than to work out new experiments, and his experiments have been suc- cessful. Carl is very shy and does not like to talk in front of a large group. Oral compositions are his worst enemies. He can be recognized by his blonde hair and ever-present smile. His chief ambition is to be a pilot. Activities: Track 15 Glee Club 1, 2, 33 Basketball 2, 3, 4. BLANCHE MILDRED CLARK Her ways are ways of pleasantnessf' A girl who is very business-like. Wherever you see Blanche you are sure to see Dot Eames. Blanche is a girl whose com- plexion is divine. Smiles are not unusual when you look at her. Her boyish haircut and manners are very becoming. You wouldn't think that such a quiet appearing girl could get the cheers out of the student body that Blanche did as cheer leader. Her ambition is to travel and we are sure she will be welcome everywhere she goes. Activities: Glee Club 1, 2, 3, 43 Cheer Leader 4. HLIRY JOSEPH DALBEC HI-Ienyu For a man learns more quickly and remembers more easily that which he laughs at. The famous joke-teller, riddle-fan, and limerick maker. Most of his work is done on time, subtracting all waste of time, plus en- joyment, and divided by the delivery of the Telegram-Gazette paper. He has three exceedingly good pals and perhaps many gals-but what's the difference-it's still Heny. Henry Dalbec is very much interested in West Oxford. Let's hope he can continue to go there after graduation. He has a side remark for everything. His plans are to go to Bay Path Institute. The Class of 1933 is convinced that he will make a good business man. Activities: Commercial Club 3, 45 Glee Club 1, 2, 33 Plays 13 Baseball 15 On Write-Up Committee 4. l7l

RAVELIN 'S PHILIP LUCAS FALES Phil Not a word spoke he more than was necessary. A very smart boy is Phil. He certainly has had many teachers perplexed by his very deep and thoughtful questions. Phil is a very quiet boy, when he is in sight of some. He has a queer habit of keeping quiet at the wrong time. His favorite occupations are doing physics with LeClaire and asking to speak to Helliwell. Activities: Latin Club 4. CHARLES EDWARD FARRAR Sharlie Of making books there is no end and much studying is a weariness to the flesh. Vas you dere Sharlie? Of course he Was. He always is. His pet sayings to the girls are very attractive, boys. Ask him to let you in on 'the secretg probably it is the way he says them. Have you ever noticed that twinkle in his eye and that ear to ear smile? That's the kind that makes a good actor. He never wastes that 2004 talent, for he has made use of it in dramatics. With one eye on his book. and the other on that blonde Sharlie still knows his work. I+'s too bad we don't know what his future plans are, bfut he'll be there. Activities: Glee Club 1, 2, 33 Dramatics 1, 2, 33 Commercial Club 4. SYLVIA GREENE usyln She that could think, and ne'er disclose her mind. Sylvia Greene is a past member of Commerce High School, but we were glad to welcome her to Oxford High last September. A1- though she didn't take part in many of the activities she is well known by all her classmates. Her very striking Y-le'l-oo is heard everywhere. She has a pleasant smile for everyone. She hopes to travel to South Africa and be a social worker. She is interested in Philosophy which will help her in her social work. Red is her favorite color and I'm sure everyone will remember her for her selection of bright colors. Good luck to you Syl. Activities: Sylvia was transferred from Commerce High, Wor- cester in 1932, and her activities there were Britomart, Glee Club, and Bumblebees. At Oxford High: Demos Forensic. l9i
