M E T A Thirty-seven ALBIN H. MILESKI T. HENRY MILLEA BENJAMIN MILLSTEIN “All great men are in some degree inspired.” ORCHESTRA STRAND NIGHT COMPOSER OF CLASS ODE “Surely never did there live on earth A man of kindlier nature.” CLASS FOOTBALL “Worth makes the man.” DEBATING CLASS PLAY Al’s great inspiration must be his violin, for he is never so happy as when his “fiddle” is tucked under his chin. In the classroom, his work has been of high grade, while his co- operation in other activities has been of equal value. His personality has made many friends and in whatever he may undertake, may Lady Luck smile upon him! Jovial and kind, that’s “Henny.” He has ambitions, too. His many friends know that a doctor’s kit and office are the goals “Henny” pictures in his mind. Patience combined with the ability to rise over difficulties will les- sen the number of rungs of the ladder in his climb to success. A manly fellow seems to be the best way to characterize “Benny.” If a “T” account were set up and debited with his virtues, and credited with his faults, we are sure that it would have a debit balance far in excess of the total on the credit side. Yes, “Benny” is going to be a big business man.

Thirty-six M ETA EDWARD W. McCarthy, Jr. “In him ’twas natural to please.” HOCKEY GOLF We take no inconsiderable pleasure in presenting here a little account of one of our rather quiet classmates, Ed McCarthy. Ed is an athlete of more than mediocre ability. He shone as goal tender on the hockey team; in golf he always turned in a low score. May Ed’s score in life be proportion- ate to his excellent qualities. DORIS J. McGLUE “This pretty lass will prove our country’s bliss.” To the class of ’31, the name of Doris will always call to mind a quiet conscientious girl, whose attractive visage is always lighted by a radiant smile. She belongs to the group who say cheerfully, “If you can’t be what you would like to be, be faithfully what you can.’’ One who possesses such a willing nature will always find a ready place in this busy world. PETER P. MICALCHUCK “An agreeable companion on a journey is as good as a carriage.” VARSITY FOOTBALL CLASS PLAY STRAND NIGHT TRAFFIC SQUAD Although quiet and reticent, Peter has taken part in many extra curricula activities. He was a good football player; he showed his ability as an actor by the manner in which he played his part of “Toby” in the class play, and he helped his class make Strand night a success. Peter has always been a good student and has been willing to lend a helping hand whenever it was needed.

Thirty-eight .1 ETA EARL F. MINOT “A man is but what he knoweth.” The good humor and genial disposi- tion of Earl has done much to gain for him many friends during his sojourn in Peabody High. Perseverance in his daily lessons has built for him a firm foundation upon which to establish his future career. The good wishes of all your fellow schoolmates go with you, Earl. DOMINIC MOGAVERO All may do what has been done by man.” SENIOR PLAY VARSITY FOOTBALL CLASS FOOTBALL STRAND NIGHT There was no easy task confronting Don when he came to Peabody High for his brother “Chick” of enviable reputation and accomplishment had preceeded him. It was obviously “Don’s” duty to live up to that mark. How well he did do that you may learn from perusing our annual. HENRY W. MURPHY “There’s no art to tint! the mind’s construc- tion in the face.” Although he was not always promi- nent in the activities of his class, we who were acquainted with Henry are glad that he was in our midst, for in him we found a true comrade and an admirable character. We trust that in his future life he will strive to re- tain those qualities which have made him our friend.
