RAVELIN 'S LYMERT STEVEN BALCOM Mertie An amiable soul wears well. You can't Iind a better pal than Mertie, for he has a heart of gold. He is willing to helw anyone out whenever the need arises. For some reason or other, Mertie can never be seen with a girl. The class of 1933 is certainly hoping that he reaches the height of his great ambition, which is to become a great ball player, and man- ager, and pilot the Red Sox to their first pennant since 1918. Activities: Baseball 2, 3, 45 Track 3, Captain 45 Won Trip to New Hampshire 35 Latin Club 43 Glee Club 4. PETER BELIAUSKAS Pete An air of good humor ever surrounds him. Pete, as he is called, is a jolly sort of a person. He is a good talker and has a good imagination. You can always depend on Pete to lend a helping hand when some one is in need. His broad grin brightens the Whole world, and it influences the teach- ers so that they are more lenient. He is known to all his friends and classmates as jolly Pete. What's that you said, is his favorite sentence.

CARL INGRAM CARLSON lllgh I see the endg I see the end of my labor. Ig likes nothing any better than to play his good old trombone in the high school orchestra. He is more fond of music than school. He does not like shorthand because of the homework. Ig has thought it over, and is making plans to run a large farm. He has often dreamed of being an aviator so that he can fly across the Atlantic Ocean. Activities: Orchestra 2, 3, 45 Glee Club. l 6 l

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
