Page Twenty-two ,1 E T A ALMA M. GLENCROSS “To be amiable is most certainly a virtue.” WOMAN S CLUB One of our retiring classmates, seldom pushing herself into the lime- light, but yet always willing to do her part in our class activities, is Alma. A quiet diligence has marked her days among us, and we have been constantly aware of the splendid qualities concealed beneath her un- assuming nature. MORRELL GOLDBERG Oh ! keep me innocent. Make others great.” VARSITY FOOTBALL FRENCH CLUB VARSITY BASKETBALL OBSERVER STAFF META Morrell can argue about any sub- ject in such a way that one would think him well versed on the topic in question. As an authority on ques- tions of the heart, he is unsurpassed. We can picture our future attorney winning a losing case by his fiery elo- quence. Space forbids more. HYMAN GOLDSTEIN Responsibility walks hand in hand with capacity. SENIOR CLASS TREASURER ORCHESTRA OBSERVER STAFF FRENCH CLUB META The variable list of accomplishments that our diminutive orchestra leader possesses would fill a book of encyclo- pedic size. Besides guarding the class treasury, doing traffic duty, playing the sax and wiiting for the Observer, “Hy” has found time to in- struct some of the more aspiring lesser lights in the fine art of fiddling.

M ETA Page Twenty-one JAMES T. FLEMING CHARLES T. FOX ESTHER F. GILMAN “Poets utter great and wise things.” VARSITY FOOTBALL CLASS FOOTBALL OBSERVER STAFF META STAFF If you are in search of a person with a sense of humor, look up “Jim.” This young man is the cause of more than one laugh that is excited in the “Gang.” By observing his poetic efforts we may assume that we have a second Shakespeare in our midst. “Good nature is the very air of a good mind.” CLASS BASKETBALL CLASS FOOTBALL AGORA “Chucker” is the type of fellow who thinks much and says but little until he commences. His earnest desire to help at all times has earned for him the friendship of all. Although un- able to compete for varsity basketball, “Charlie” was right at the helm to direct our class team. “The highest graces of music flow from the feelings of the heart.” WOMAN ' S CLUB SPANISH CLUB Here is another product of Peabody High and one of whom we certainly should be proud. Besides being an efficient bookkeeper, Esther can boast of being a talented pianist. She has never spoken of her ambitions to us, but we know that there is some surprise in store for us in the future.

META Page Twenty-three MOSES GOLDSTEIN “This world belongs io the energetic. META STAFF BAND ORCHESTRA AGORA TREASURER According to Ralph Waldo Emerson, our friend “Mose” is due to receive a large share of the world. We won- det what musical organization will be so fortunate in later years to boast of, as their bass-est horn player, our own busy “Mose.” Another thing, we’ll all agree that “Mose” is some business man. MAURICE T. HALLINAN Simplicity of manner is the best attainment.” CLASS FOOTBALL VARSITY BASEBALL AGORA Although “Red” doesn’t have much to say, he dashes through trial bal- ances on high and takes dictation in a way that would do justice to Mr. Giegg himself. We, his classmates and friends, wish him the very best of luck and hope that he will be suc- cessful in all that he undertakes. BESSIE M. HANNAFORD “There’s many a road io travel but it’s ibis road today. TRAFFIC SQUAD Bessie, perhaps more intimately known as “Hannah” has been one of our beaming traffic officers during her senior year. Her splendid success in handling traffic problems outside Room 11 leads us to believe that her faculty of leadership will be mani- fested in the future in other channels — and with as marked success.
