Time has bidden us to set our compass for our journey. Our helmsman has been given his orders and we’re off. But, iix order that our journey through life may be accompanied by fond memories of our days spent at Peabody High School, we present this, our Year Book. So now — — ■ “As we journey on thi ' ough life, It’s the set of the soul That determines the goal, And not the storms and strife.” WILLARD W. WOODMAN Principal t i 5 OUR PRINCIPAL It is difficult to put into words; the thoughts that come to mind when we reflect upon the part Mr. Woodman has played in the life of the class of nineteen hundred and thirty-three. As individuals and as a class, every one of us has reason to be everlastingly grateful for the kind and generous interest he has shown us from the first day we came under his guiding hand. For over thirty years Mr. Woodman has been the principal of Peabody High School. During this period he has seen many changes in the physical equipment of the school, in the personnel of the teach- ing force and in the size of the student body. Through it all, Mr. Woodman has remained the same, a true Christian gentleman, willing and eager to give the best of himself to the work to which he has dedicated his life. Words, of course, are entirely inadequate. But such as they are, we here g ' ive expression to the gratitude we have in our hearts for this kindly man who has so painstakingly guided us through this eventful period of our lives. Vi OUR ALMA MATER I (Class Oh, Alma Mater, soon to be We, the class of thirty-three, Sing our farewell song to thee; And ’tis a stirring melody, The music fills our hearts with tears; As we glance back throughout the years, We seem to see as in a haze The mem’ries of our student days. Refrain: And soon will come the day we love, yet hate The day we leave our school we graduate; Farewell, dear school, we graduate. Oh, Alma Mater, light our ways, With thee we spent our happy days; And now when time has come to part ’Tis hard to still our saddened hearts; The years roll by and far we roam, Tho’ serfs or lords of castles be, We’ll keep forever in our hearts A place for cherished thoughts of thee. Refrain: And soon will come the day we love, yet hate The day we leave our school we graduate; Farewell, dear school, we graduate. Music by Haig Richardson Manoogian Words by Frederick Eugene Driscoll and Stephen Vounessea 1UCCE5SI WIS D OM KN OWI f DG RSr VTRAN C OYALTY LRU OUR FACULTY We of the class of nineteen hundred and thirty-three express here the gratitude we owe to the competent staff of teachers who have guided us along the perilous paths of our high school years. We recognize that theirs has not been an easy task; and before we bid them farewell, it is our wish that the members of the faculty, one and all, know that we are not unappreciative of the services they have so cheerfully rendered. They have labored unceasingly to point out to our youthful minds the paths along which we should travel if we are seeking our true end in life. Their time, their effor’ts, their interest in us has been ours for the asking. It is to be hoped that their services have not been given in vain. Twelve META ' ■ . ■ , PHI LIP ABELL “Good nature is the very air of a good mind.” FRENCH CLUB SCIENCE CLUB “Penny” certainly has a way with women. A light-hearted, jovial young man is he. Did you ever see him when he wasn’t looking for “Mickey?” Work is not his motto, for “Penny” says that all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. Auf wiedersehen, “Penny.” GLADYS L. ANDERSON “To be amiable always is a virtue ' SPANISH CLUB The light-haired blue eyed lassie that we see above will long be remem- bered as “Gladdie” because of her loveliness. An ever-present smile on that face which cheers up our school days like nothing else ever could, is a definite feature of “Gladdie.” We all wish her success and bliss in her future years. II. PRISCILLA ANDERSON “May we be merry.” The outstanding feature of our Priscilla is her brilliant smile. When you are walking along a street and hear the “toot” of a cheerful sound- ing horn, you may feel sure that it is none other than the horn belonging to Priscilla’s car. She never passes a friend without a friendly greeting. May you be as happy in years to come, Priscilla. META Thirteen LILLIAN E. ANDERSON “The measure of life is not length but honesty.” SCIENCE CLUB Although “Trixie” was one of the more quiet members of the class, she will ceitainly be missed by all. “Trixie’s” charm of personality will be remembered by all of us and will certainly do much to help her on her future way. We predict that she will win for herself no small place in the affairs of the world. JOHN J. ANTOSZEWSKI ‘‘Extremes in nature concur to general use.” SPANISH CLUB SCIENCE CLUB Johnny’s a clever chap. He doesn’t say much, but he listens to what everyone else has to say. His sense of humor is humorous in itself; he can see the funny side of anything — especially anything tragic. When it so pleases him, he’s in a class by him- self as a practical joker. ROSE BACHERMAN “Her humor is a continual bubble of joy.” SPANISH CLUB SCIENCE CLUB Here is a girl in whose heart there is singing alwavs a little golden bird of joy. When “Rose” enters a class- room, the sun enters also. Her irre- sistible laughter and good humor gained a great many friends for her. May success follow her always! Fourteen i META CHARLES G. BAGLEY “Still waters run deep.” TRAFFIC SQUAD SCIENCE CLUB GLEE CLUB INTER-CLASS BASEBALL Although we are familiar with Charlie as a happy-go-lucky fellow, a few of us have had the privilege of knowing his more serious nature. Under his efficient leadership, the traffic squad was a great success. You’ve been a real friend, Charlie, and we hope to hear from you as a successful electrical engineer. PETER BASHUK “My mind is my kingdom.” SCIENCE CLUB “Pete,” because of a certain aloof- ness, was not well known to many of the class of ’33. In English, however, the orations he delivered when called upon for an oral topic won him con- siderable renown. He confesses that Science holds for him his greatest in- terest and it is in this field that we expect to hear good reports of him. BARBARA O. BATCHELDER “Good nature is an element of success.” OBSERVER META SCIENCE CLUB Gifted with a wonderful artistic talent, “Barb” is indeed a real asset to our class. Already she has received much praise for her fine work as an artist, not only in our high school, but in surrounding high schools, where her posters have frequently appeared. Good luck, “Barb!” M ETA Fifteen RUTH H. EERES “The foundation in every noble character is sincerity.” VARSITY BASKETBALL “Ruthie” is not loud. Yet everyone knows who Ruthie Beres is. In her own inimitable way she has found a secure place in the hearts of her classmates. If she undertakes a thing, you can be assured that the task will be completed. Good luck, “Ruthie.” PETER BILLERT “Plain without pomp, and rich without show.” Steadiness to a degree of certainty and an ability to conduct himself without attracting needless attention make “Pete” a man on whom one can depend. Of a mathematical turn of mind, he has, for five years, main- tained an enviable scholastic record. We look for great things from “Pete” and we’re sure he’ll not disappoint us. BARBARA B. BOLLES “I am constant as the northern star.” “Barb” came to us during the middle of our senior year at school. Although many of us have not been fortunate enough to meet this young lady, those of us who have, can assure you that she is a very quiet, lovable girl. We wish her much happiness. Sixteen META MARY BOYKO “Mighty in deeds, not in words.’’ FRENCH CLUB SCIENCE CLUB Perhaps some of us are not fortun- ate enough to be an intimate of Mary’s but we all know what she has accomplished during the four years she has spent with us at P. H. S. Quiet, sincere and studious, Mary, we feel sure, will find a secure position in the world which beckons her. ALICE M. BOYLE “Not by years, but by disposition, is wisdom acquired.” A whisper, a contagious giggle, and then the “secret is out.” Who caused the mirth is no longer unknown. For we all recognize the source of it all, Alice Boyle. A classroom plus ques- tions from some eager student and we know that “Al” is in attendance in search of knowledge. W. OTIS BRIGGS ‘‘A good heart is worth gold.” SCIENCE CLUB STRAND NIGHT CLASS PROPHET FRENCH CLUB META “The man in the street” — “the man in the corridors.” We know them both, but the latter, “Spanker,” as he is called, is the one in whom we are interested. The roles which he has taken during his senior year as the “wise guy,” “the sanctimonious bishop,” and the class prophet, clearly indicate that Otis must be well known at P. H. S. M E T .4 Seventeen CHARLES H. BURNS, JR. ‘‘Friendship is infinitely better than kindness. BAND ORCHESTRA SCIENCE CLUB A very versatile chap is “Charlie.” One of the most popular students in good old P. H. S., he is liked by his teachers and fellow students alike. He is an excellent student, a “swell” mixer and a promising musician; truly a “regular fellow.” We’ll miss you “Charlie.” JOSEPH CANAL “Who treads softly, treads far.” “Joe,” coming to us at the begin- ning of the senior year from Woburn High, was a stranger only a very short time. His pleasing ways soon won for him our respect and esteem. Now at the parting of the ways we can offer to him our sincerest wishes for a genuine and lasting success which we feel he deserves. JAMES T. CAPELLOS Quiet and purposeful in his efforts.” CLASS BASEBALL FRENCH CLUB SENIOR SEXTETTE SPANISH CLUB Jimmy is quiet and modest and never makes “much ado over nothing.” His ready smile is contagious and has won him many friends. Although not known by everyone he is greatly re- spected by his friends. It is with most sincere wishes for happiness that we bid him “au revoir.” Eighteen META AMELIA N. CHERWEK “A faithful friend is better than gold. SCIENCE CLUB Gay, vivacious, smiling Amelia — one of the most efficient students of the class of ’33. Although we may term her as being dignified or re- served during school hours, we also know of the humorous nature which she possesses. We can see nothing but success for her in the near future. ARTHUR CHULYK Be noble in every thought and in every deed. SCIENCE CLUB “Art’s” fame rests in his quiet, re- served manner of speech and action. Possessing a fine sense of humor, he is beloved for his laughing good nature. He is ambitious and diligent, sure to make his mark in the world of business. Go to it, “Art,” the whole class wishes you luck. ANNA M. CLARK Speech is silver ; silence is golden. “Ann” with her joyous nature, though modest and carefree, has gained a host of loyal friends among her classmates of ’33. Her sunny disposition and her salutary spirit have won our everlasting friendship. In regard to her future, we are quite sure that her steps will be well guid- ed in whatever career she may decide to pursue. META Nineteert JOHN J. COCHRANE “Merit is worthier than fame.” DEBATING TEAM SCIENCE CLUB “Jacky” is that quiet type of per- son who realizes that life is worthwhile if we make it so. He is a good student, a good golfer, and a good sport. If that’s not enough, his all- round good nature and his willing- ness to be friendly are bound to “put him over.” MARY T. COLA “Thy modesty is a candle to thy merit.” Quietly and modestly has our “Mary” passed her high school years with us. She has endeared herself to all of us, not by her quietness, but by her continual cheerfulness and goodness. Mary, we the class of ’33, are confident of your success as a competent business woman. MARJORIE H. CONLEY “Nothing: is impossible to diligence and skill.” META STAFF SCIENCE CLUB Cheerful, light-hearted and helpful. Lively, active and brilliant in all affairs of school life. The lucky pos- sessor of these charms is no one other than “Marj”. Whenever or wherever we see her, we shall always know her by her beaming smiles. Who could ask for more? Twenty META GEORGIA V. COOMBS “A lig ' ht heart lives long.” GLEE CLUB SPANISH CLUB Although small in stature, Georgia has gained a host of friends among the class of ’33. Cheerful and smil- ing, she has won a place in many a heart during her five year course. We bid her good luck and truly hope that her future will be as happy as her school days were. ALEXANDER CORNICHUCK “What sweet delight a quiet life affords.” Quietly and unobtrusively “Alec” has passed the year with us in a most satisfactory manner. Never over- bearing and boisterous, he is not very well known by many, although re- spected by all for his tranquil air of dignity and reserve. Unassuming, persevering and cheerful, he has the qualities which ought to win for him a large measure of success. HELEN CORNICHUCK “True to her word, her work, her friend.” SCIENCE CLUB When we see a miss of dignified and reserved manner, wearing a happy smile, we immediately know that it’s “Cornie.” Her humorous re- marks have often livened our periods at P. H. S. It is the earnest wish of her classmates that success will soon be hers. . 1 ETA Twenty-one WILLIAM F. CRONIN “Men of few words are the best men.” FOOTBALL CAPTAIN BASEBALL Must we introduce this young- man? There is so much to be said about our Peabody High School football cap- tain, yet so little space in which to do him justice. “Bill” certainly dis- played form on the gridiron that will not be easily forgotten. Blushing is his specialty, but why delve into that? Success in every venture is the only thing we can wish him. WILLIAM H. CULLEN “Let me but do my work from day to day.” SCIENCE CLUB “Billy” is one of our classmates of a different nature. Although modest by nature he has won many friends who have learned that he is always willing to help with whatever lies in his power. We, the class of ’33, wish him good fortune in his later pur- suits. A. ELEANOR DANDA “Maidens should be mild and meek, swift to hear and slow to speak.” SCIENCE CLUB Attractive, amiable, and obliging, Eleanor has gained many steadfast friends. Her calm, well-prepared rec- itations in class were a source of in- spiration to the rest of us. By grad- uation we lose a conscientious stu- dent, and a good friend. We feel sure that Eleanor will be successful in anything she undertakes. Twenty-two META ELLEN L. DAVIDSON “Her very frowns are fairer far than smiles of other maidens are.” SCIENCE CLUB META STAFF Blonde hair, an abundance of curls and a ready smile — that’s Ellen. Everyone was surprised when it be- came know n that Ellen possessed ar- tistic ability, for until her senior year no hints had been given. But, the secret is no more. We’ll probably be hearing much about her one of these days! MANLEY B. DAVIS “Bold in the lists and graceful in the dance.” VARSITY FOOTBALL TRACK TEAM “Beefy” Davis personifies an envi- able type. He goes his own way and enjoys having you with him, but he leaves the choice to you. He laughs at your jokes and sympathizes with your troubles, yet he keeps his own to himself. Occasionally a reckless streak breaks through and then you really meet him. DOROTHY A. DEE “Truth hath a quiet heart.” In every school there are some who impress us intellectually, and others who impress us by their humor and cheerfulness. The latter class make our school life brighter, but it is rarely that we meet both qualities combined. That is why we shall re- member Dorothy and rejoice that we know her. META Twenty-three ALTHEA V. DEMPSEY “She’ll get by with the twinkle in her eye.” SPANISH CLUB, PRESIDENT META Even the undergraduates will miss “Al’s” sunny smile when she leaves in June. Besides being an accom- plished art student, “Al” can play the piano to the satisfaction of any critic. There’s no doubt that this West Pea- body lass will make good, whatever her course in life may be. THOMAS J. DOHERTY “Still water runs deep.” Did you ever see a long-legged, blonde individual walking along the corridors, joking and laughing. Well, it’s probably “Tom,” or “Alphonse” as you would have it, indulging in one of his good-natured jests and funny remarks. But beneath this out- ward appearance, there’s a thought- ful nature which has real friendship to offer. Keep up the good spirit, “Tom.” HAROLD L. DOWDELL “Give thy thoughts no tongue.’’ TRAFFIC SQUAD SCIENCE CLUB BAND “Hal,” all the way from South Pea- body has smiled his way through High School, making friends, acquir- ing his full share of knowledge, and in general conducting himself in such a way as to lead us to believe that he will accomplish something real in the years to come. He deserves and we trust he will receive, the best that life can offer. Twenty-four META HILDA F. DRAGON FREDERICK E. DRISCOLL MARY L. DUNLEAVY “She is all so slight.” Hilda is quiet, calm, and always collected whatever might be the occa- sion to be otherwise. This ability to smile that winsome smile of hers in difficulties of any nature ought to mean much to her in the stern reali- ties of life. Business is her aim, and rest assured that the business firm that enlists her services will be for- tunate indeed. “Rich with the spoils of nature.” “It’s good to be merry and wise.” CLASS ODE. WORDS It would be unfair to say that we don’t appreciate Freddy, but it would be impossible to say that we under- stand him. His versatile cleverness includes everything, from polished and successful wisecracks in room five to thoughtful, well-measured poetry. His is a disposition that’s really humorous, and a nature that’s really friendly. Throughout the five years that Mary has been with us, she has dis- played a charming personality. Her buoyancy of spirit, vivacity of move- ment, and subtle humor, have changed the classroom from a den of gloom to a happy place. She has implanted in our hearts an admiration which long years shall not erase. META Twenty-five C. EVERETT DUNN “Good humor is one of the best articles of dress.” FRENCH CLUB SPANISH CLUB CLASS BASKETBALL LETTER CLUB “Ebbie” is a jolly, good-natured fellow, always ready for work or play. He is liked by everyone he conies in contact with, for under his winning smile is a strong will and de- termined character. The good wishes of all your schoolmates go with you, “Eb.” MARY A. EAGAN “The silent leader.” “Eagie” is one young lady who will not soon be forgotten by her class- mates of ’33. Although shy and quiet, apparently, she is extremely well known and has shown remarkable ability as a leader of the 1933 Girls’ Varsity basketball team. She never misses the hoop of a basket; we trust she will not miss the whoop of suc- cess. EVELYN R. EARLE “A merry heart goes all the day.” Who is the girl whose head towers high above the crowd? Yes, it is our tall, jolly “Evie.” With her bewitch- ing disposition, “Evie” has made many friends in school. Success may hang high above the heads of others, but all you have to do, “Evie,” is reach up and grasp it. Twenty-six META CHARLOTTE EDELSTEIN 1 ARNOLD FARIA DORIS E. FEENEY “For ’t is the mind that makes the body rich.” “Laugh and the world laughs with you.” “Such popularity must be deserved.” I ONOR STUDENT Charlotte is a girl who, although quiet, somehow makes her presence felt wherever she goes. We all are acquainted with her friendly ways, and we are sure that she will suc- ceed in her chosen profession, what- ever it may be. Good luck, Charlotte! SPANISH CLUB SCIENCE CLUB Arnold has a knack of making friends immediately. Such an en- gaging grin! He is always jolly, humorous and gallant. What else can we say except that we wish him success and everything that goes with it. Since Doris came to us from Salem High three years ago, she has made a host of friends. We know that she will be successful in the commercial field in which she has already made a beginning. We, of the senior class hope that “Old Lady Luck” will smile on Doris in the years to come. META Twenty-seven ALICE E. FELLOWS “A light heart lives long.” VICE-PRESIDENT, JUNIOR CLASS WOMAN’S CLUB SCIENCE CLUB Who doesn’t know Alice? Her gay chatter and laughter will .be remem- bered by us long after we part from her at graduation. Whatever her life work may be, we wish her good luck and success in it. BERNICE T. FELT “However rare true love is, true friendship is rarer.” INTER-CLASS BASKETBALL WOMAN ' S CLUB META SCIENCE CLUB Jolly, friendly Bernice has proved to be an asset to our class during these five years. Besides taking part in sports and doing well in her studies, she has always been ready to help out in class affairs. We certain- ly hope that your future will be happy, “Bunny.” ARTHUR C. FLACHBART, Jr. “If music be the food of Love, Play on !’’ If you are willing “to lend your ears” to hear about the saxaphone, “Flashie” is the person to interview. He is one ardent enthusiast for the “sax” and may well be, for he plays it admirably. Talking about hobbies, his most important one is clothes. We’d all like to be as successful with our hobbies as Flashie has been! Twenty-eight META ELIZABETH V. FOSTER MARY A. FLEMING FRANCES F. FOSS “Character is a diamond that scratches every other stone ' OBSERVER SCIENCE CLUB Sociable, witty, brilliant, May is the type of girl who would establish herself immediately in the hearts of any group. Although not particular- ly active in the affairs of the class or school, May could always be depended upon to render her active support whenever needed for the cause. We will hear good things of her in the days to come. Happy am I ; from care I’m free ; Why aren ' t they all contented like me?” VICE-PRESIDENT. SENIOR CLASS TRAFFIC SQUAD PRESIDENT, GLEE CLUB SECRETARY, SPANISH CLUB “Frannie” has always been found in a happy frame of mind. Agile, droll and smiling, she is the type that makes our life at school more inter- esting. We hear she intends to study music, and if she carries out her plan, we know she will make the class of ’33 proud of her. “Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.” SPANISH CLUB Of course we all know Elizabeth, the tall, blue-eyed blonde, who seems to have a smile for everyone she meets. Whatever she has undertaken thus far she has accomplished in a capable and efficient manner which leads to the belief that she will ap- proach her future tasks in the same manner. And we might add that we expect real achievements from Eliza- beth in the near future. Good luck! META Twenty-nine MICHAEL J. FRASCA “Great men’s minds run along the same channels.” FRENCH CLUB “Mike” as he is known to his class- mates, seems to have given an air of joviality and good feeling to the class with his smiling countenance and his witty remai-ks. And as to “Mike’s” efficiency in his studies, why, if learn- ing were gold, he could start a mint. Who could say more? RACHEL L. GANGLOFF “The end crowns the work.” SCIENCE CLUB Rachel is another of the more re- tiring members of our class. But then we all know the story of “few words,” but plenty of action, and we feel confident that when the time comes, Rachel will be fully competent of holding her own in any society. A noiseless efficiency marks her contri- bution to her class, her classes and her school. Good luck to you, Rachel. MAX GARDNER “The world belongs to the energetic.” SCIENCE CLUB When one hears a great deal of whispering in class, and sees a broad smile on Max’s face, you can imagine something is bound to happen. We shall miss Max and his fun-loving spirit, but with him goes our fondest wishes for success. Thirty 4 META HERCULES GEORGE Good nature ; the secret of friendship.” BASEBALL BASKETBALL FOOTBALL SPANISH CLUB Big, hearty “Here” George bears the brunt of all the practical jokes, but they slide from him as water off a duck. Good-natured, forgiving and always ready for a fight or frolic, which ever best suits the time and place, “Here” is a real fellow. WILLIAM J. GEORGE “A presence which is not to be put by.” TRAFFIC SQUAD FRENCH CLUB Physics, chemistry and mathema- tics have taken firm grip upon “Bill” during the five years he has been with us. Whether it be to square a circle or to invent a formula, “Bill” is al- ways ready. We hear that aviation is about to receive this industrious and reticent young man into its midst. Best o’ luck, Bill! STANLEY GIEZITSKY “Follow thru.” SCIENCE CLUB GOLF In this young man we had an ex- cellent golfer for our school team. No doubt we shall hear from him as a future golf champion. We know when Stanley takes his place in the world, he will “follow ' thru,” whether it be on the fairway or in the business world. M ETA Thirty-one HELEN F. GODFREY Enjoy the present smiling hour, And put it out of fortune’s pow ' r.” CLASS PLAY GIRLS’ DEBATING TEAM OBSERVER EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE, SENIOR Ever jolly and ever smiling is Helen, this charming miss of ’33. Yet with all her smiles and all her good humor, she found plenty of time to devote seriously to the best interests of school and class. To the Observer she was a frequent contributor; in fact, to every activity she gave a full share of attention and her class work never suffered. She will merit suc- cess. E. ARTHUR GOLD “ ’Tis no sin to be light and merry,” BAND ORCHESTRA TRAFFIC SQUAD FRENCH CLUB To extol the virtues of “Art” and to tell of his accomplishments in his high school career would take a volume, for activity seems to be the keynote of Art’s life. His jolly humor seems to be contagious for the school has been in nothing short of convul- sions since Art made his appearance. His yearning for music only shows his fine taste and preference for the better things of life. MILTON GOLDBERG “Cheerfulness is an offshoot of goodness and of wisdom.” BASKETBALL SPANISH CLUB “Milt’s” ability to make and keep friends is generally known, and his optimistic, vigorous personality makes a favorable impression on all of his many acquaintances. His cheery greeting and his engaging smile will always remain in our memories. Keep it up, “Milt,” and may the best of luck be with you. Thirty-two META MARY M. GORMLY “Hope and happy skies are thine forever !” INTER-CLASS BASKETBALL We’ve enjoyed having Mary with us during our high school years and shall be sorry indeed to say farewell to her. Although she is not one to make herself heard, she has a way about her that we all like and admire. We all join in wishing you the best that is in store, Mary. ARTHUR R. GOURLEY, Jr. “A tender heart; a will inflexible. VARSITY FOOTBALL SCIENCE CLUB Art is one of the best known mem- bers of our class, and one of the best liked. His enigmatic personality makes and holds many friends. His physical greatness is unexcelled, as is his mental perseverance. A stoical capacity to cope with the difficulties of school life makes him the envy of his classmates. THELMA GROMAN “She w ' as a phantom of delight.” What would we do in some of our dull periods if “Tilly” were not there to cheer us up ? How we love that giggle of hers and that jolly, friendly little air that we always associate with her name. Oh, how we hate to see her part from us, but we won’t say good-bye — just so long, and good luck and happiness for the future! META Thirty-three HENRY W. HALLINAN “He was a man all in all.” BASEBALL, CAPTAIN OBSERVER FRENCH CLUB META HONOR STUDENT The winner of the Harvard prize needs no further praise. That is, in itself, a guarantee of his pre- eminence in scholarship, sports and general conduct. To these must be added something which we hold equally valuable. He has always been a true friend. What else could any- one wish to be ? ELIZABETH A. HALPERN “A good heart is worth gold.” OBSERVER. EDITOR-IN-CHIEF SCIENCE CLUB FRENCH CLUB HONOR STUDENT We cannot in these few lines pay due praise to “Libby’s” fine char- acter and outstanding literary abil- ity. Her work as editor-in-chief of the Observer has been received with much admiration and appreciation. We feel certain that she, being pos- sessed of remarkable characteristics, will find success in whatever field she may enter. RUTH B. HANSON “A merry heart doeth good like a medicine.” GLEE CLUB WOMAN ' S CLUB SCIENCE CLUB Rough, spoiled, smiling, charming, irresistible Ruth “Chubby” Hanson. Just one of the gang. A lively and in- teresting young lady of character. Very popular and indeed pleasant company. We are trying to say something serious about her but it just can’t be done. Do you think so? Thirty-four MARY V. HARKINS “You will be what you will to be.” Who is that lively little person seen in the senior class rooms? It’s none other than our own “Harkie,” a ver- satile and charming young lady, who is the possessor of many friends at P. H. S. She has been active in all social affairs of the class and has shown marked ability as a basketball player. BARBARA C. HARRIS “She has a smile for every friend, And for every smile a friend.” OBSERVER META SCIENCE CLUB Through the four years which “Barb” has spent at P. H. S. she has proved that she is endowed with a brain that is acute and active. “Barb” is always right there with her help- ful suggestions and original ideas. We remember her also as the editor of the Alumni column of the “Observer.” ARTHUR F. HARRISON “Here he comes ; there he goes.” TREASURER, JUNIOR SCIENCE CLUB It is unfortunate, indeed, that space requirements set a limit upon us in our discussion of good friend, Arthur. He has been active in every class and school function. Golf, it is reported, has taken considerable of his attention, and they say he’s good. Perhans some day the world will for- get all about Bobby Jones. M ETA Thirty-fiva E. ELEANOR HAYES “I find earth not grey but rosy Heaven not grim but full of hue.” VARSITY BASKETBALL TRAFFIC SQUAD CLASS PLAY In Eleanor the Varsity basketball squad had one of its most able guards and the senior class had one of its most pleasant members. Her ability in basketball is an evidence of the success that will be Eleanor’s in the years to come. We wish her luck! GRACE E. HAYES Grace — her name, and grace describes her.” OBSERVER TRAFFIC SQUAD META WOMAN ' S CLUB Grace, the ideal student, pleasant, courteous, serious and studious. She truly possesses a natural charm of grace and dignity. Of her con- tributions to the success of school and class activities much could be said if space permitted. It is our wish that she may get from life all that she has so richly deserved. MARY E. HENRY Efficiency is the keynote of success.” OBSERVER. ASSOCIATE EDITOR SALUTATORI AN META, EDITOR-IN-CHIEF GLEE CLUB, SECRETARY FRENCH CLUB During the years which Mary has spent at P. H. S. she has been an outstanding member of her class. She has taken an active part in all class activities as her record shows. Her literary talent has been highly recognized in her many contributions to both the “Meta” and the “Ob- server.” Good luck! 1 Thirty-six META DAVID W. HICKS “Good nature and good sense must ever join.” “Dave,” silent and reserved (but smiling) has always been our favor- ite. He is known to us as the “golf pro” and we know that he surely will become famous in that field. His jolly laugh and pleasing personality will be missed. EDITH F. HILLMAN “Knowledge comes, but wisdom lingers.” OBSERVER META WOMAN ' S CLUB CLASS PLAY HONOR STUDENT Edith Hillman — yes — a versatile maiden with many virtues. This smil- ing, cheerf ul young lady is certainly the belle of P. H. S. She is also the possessor of a high scholastic stand- ing. Our friend is enrolled at Bos- ton University School of Music. Music certainly has its charms, eh, “Edie?” EDNA M. HOCKENHULL “Life without laughter is a dreary blank.’ SCIENCE CLUB SPANISH CLUB Good-natured, thoroughly enjoying her presence on this earth, Edna is a sure cure for the blues. Always agreeable, ready to lend a hand, one finds a true friend in Edna. She wishes to become a nurse, and we wish her every success in this noble profession. META Thirty-seven JOHN J. HOLDER “Simplicity of manner is the best attainment.” BAND FRENCH CLUB All who know John regard him as an industrious, fun-loving and likable type of student. He may appear rather stiff and dignified to the lower classmen, but when he is in the com- pany of intimates, John loses his re- serve and shows his real character. W expect great things from you, John. CATHERINE M. HORRIGAN “A true friend is forever a friend.” FRENCH CLUB PICTURE COMMITTEE Though of a placid and bashful dis- position, “Kay” possesses a pleasant and quiet manner. She has always been a delightful and loyal friend to all her classmates. Despite her quiet disposition, she is always ready to greet you with a smile. We bid her farewell and wish her the best of luck in all future undertakings. CLEMENT J. HORRIGAN “None knew thee, but to love thee. None named thee but to praise.” OBSERVER META DEBATING TEAM A truly worthwhile fellow, “Spike” is a mild-mannered, serious student. Genial socially and proficient aca- demically, he’s a jolly companion and an ardent sport fan. He conforms to that true requisite of a gentleman — he never says or does anything that hurts the feelings of others. Thirty-eipht M E i JOHN HUBISZ “Good humor is the health of the soul.” CLASS BASKETBALL CLASS BASEBALL “Johnnie” is a pleasant, likable fel- low and has a host of friends among his classmates. He has been a most able representative in class sports and a willing worker. A diligent student and true friend, he has proved to us his worth. We wish you the best of luck, Johnnie, in your future undertakings. NICHOLAS HUBISZ “Thy modesty is but a candle to thy merit.” CLASS BASKETBALL SCIENCE CLUB “Nick” is one who does things in a quiet, yet withal energetic way. Al- though slightly handicapped by his size, for he isn’t a giant, he is never- theless a formidable antagonist in any sport. In the classroom he is also something of a shining light. Modest and unassuming, he ought to prove to the world very shortly his true worth. RAYMOND A. HUSSEY “Zeal and duty are not slow.” BAND ORCHESTRA STRAND NIGHT As soloist of our band and orches- tra, “Ray” has proved his prowess to his admiring fellow students. No band or orchestra would be complete without his helping hand. “Ray’s” industrious qualities should carry him far in pursuit of his musical career. V tj T A Thirty-nine -FRANCIS C. KANE All that doth become a man is his.” EXECUTIVE OFFICER, SENIOR FRENCH CLUB “Kano’s” smiles and “wisecracks” have endeared him to the class and won him many friends. Good humor, common sense and a spirit of sport permeate his character. If these good qualities assert themselves in the future as they have in the past, “Frankie” need have no worry. Best of luck, “Kano,” and keep up the good work. JOHN J. KEANE “More wise, more learned, more just, more everything.” BAND ORCHESTRA META TRACK TEAM MANAGER Were he judged by the role he played in his senior year, he would be admired for his audacity and re- spected for his frankness; but those who know him better are acquainted with the thought which prompts his every action and the wisdom which guides it, and are made to realize and appreciate the extent of his versatile cleverness. ELEANOR L. KELLEY “A true friend is better than gold.” META FRENCH CLUB Underneath her serene and contem- plative appearance, Eleanor possesses one of the most delightful of person- alities, one which has endeared her to all of her classmates. We are sin- cere in wishing this fair daughter of ’33 the very best of success, a success which we feel confident awaits her. Her classmates will ever retain a warm spot in their hearts for Eleanor. DAVID T. KILEY ALICE C. KOOCHERUK EUGENE KOWALSKI “His smile was like a rainbow flashing from a misty sky.” SCIENCE CLUB SPANISH CLUB Perhaps one of the merriest, gay- est members of our class is he of the auburn locks. Quick witted, likable, full of love of life, “Red” will linger in our memories as the cheerful spark that ignited many a burst of merri- ment. Farewell, “Red,” and may suc- cess accompany you. Lips where smiles go out and in.” FRENCH CLUB SCIENCE CLUB Sparkling eyes, a charming smile and a deep dimple gives us a picture of Alice. Her cheery laugh has brightened many a dreary period and has gained her many friends. It is with regret that we bid Alice farewell but — may she keep on smiling. “We meet thee like a pleasant thought.” SCIENCE CLUB “Gene” is the lad with the quiet sense of humor who makes a joke out of everything. He is one of the most sociable congenial personalities in out midst. It is small wonder that “Gene” is the center of attraction wherever he is with his friends. May his good cheer never desert this son of ’33. M ETA Forty-one JOHN M. KRAMER “He alone has energy who cannot be de- priv ed of it.” BASEBALL MANAGER BAND SENIOR EXECUTIVE ORCHESTRA An energetic and methodical per- sonality keeps our diminutive Johnny before the public eye. He has been an important part of both band and orchestra, having pushed wind through his alto horn and trumpet for four years. Born with that spirit which refuses to accept defeat, he is bound to be highly successful. HELEN O. KROCHMAL “You v ill be what you will to be.” CLASS PLAY Helen is a Classical student who will set out determined to finish what- ever task she begins. Here is a girl for whom we predict early success. This success will be obtained by the underlying attributes which she pos- sesses. Chief of her attributes is the most friendly of smiles. JOHN M. KUCHER “Heaven ' s thunders melt in music !” TRAFFIC SQUAD SCIENCE CLUB ASSISTANT MANAGER, OBSERVER STRAND NIGHT Although we all know “Marna,” few of us realize that, in him, we have represented the ideal of every young musician. Friendly, witty, scholarly, John is recognized as a most promising pianist. This year he has given several concert recitals before musical critics, and has won wide approval. Success at the Con- servatory, John! Forty-two META APHRODITE IvUTRUBES JOHN H. LALLY DOROTHY E. LECAIN “Perseverance gains its meed, and Patience wins the race.” “Perched on my city office-stool.” “Diligence is the mother of Success.” FRENCH CLUH SCIENCE CLUB Very often quiet people surprise us ty revealing unexpected talent. This is true of Aphrodite who has ad- vanced far in the study of music. Be- cause of her serious application to her work we are certain of her suc- cess. And the music world ought to open wide its arms to her. John, for a long time kept us won- dering whether or not he had a sense of humor. When we got to know him we learned that in addition to his very keen sense of humor, he had many other very desirable qualities which ought to win for him a high place in the world of business. Good luck, John. SCIENCE CLUB FRENCH CLUB A diligent, capable spirit is char- acteristic of Dorothy. She is a mod- est, retiring young lady, unfailing in her devotion to her friends, loyal to her school, and we count our ac- quaintance with “Dot” a valuable one. “Dot” wishes to become a nurse, and we wish her all the luck in the world. META Forty-three RUTH L. LECAIN “Dimpled cheeks, a winning smile, Who can withstand this maiden’s guile?” OBSERVER META One of the truly attractive person- alities of the class belongs to Ruth, attractive and congenial to the nth degree. She is generous with her time and her talent. And speaking of talent, this charming miss has it in abundance. We cannot but predict a brilliant future on radio or in the field of business for either of which she seems to be thoroughly equipped. MURIEL H. LEGRO “Every right action and true thought sets the seal of its beauty on her person and face.” WOMAN’S CLUB During her high school career, Muriel has gained scores of friends who were attracted by her pleasing and delightful disposition. Continuing to do her work just as cheerfully, heartily, and effectually as she has done in the past, Muriel will be pre- pared for a position further up the ladder of achievement. NELLIE K. LELAKE “Hence, lathed Melancholy.” DEBATING CLUB SCIENCE CLUB There was a popular song many years ago, the author of the words of which must have forseen Nellie. “Smile the while” — and if anyone has ever seen this young lady without her smile — well, Ripley ought to be told. Other excellent qualities com- bined with this good nature will mean much to Nellie in the years to come. Forty-four META ABRAHAM LERNER ‘‘It seems his lot to help others.” SCIENCE CLUB STRAND NIGHT INTER-CLASS BASKETBALL Ambitious, progressive, resourceful, “Duke” is regarded as one of the most likeable members of our class. His correct, immaculate dress is a clever mask for his tolerant good nature. By using the word “tolerant” we refer to the pleasant manner in which “Abe” receives a “kidding” — usually about that mustache. KATHERINE A. LICHMAN ‘‘She possessed an imp or two What she’d do next — no one knew.” OBSERVER TRAFFIC SQUAD META GIRLS’ DEBATING TEAM SCIENCE CLUB “Kay” is the one who, if your en- thusiasm has run low, will help you regain it for her spontaneity is infec- tious. So is her giggle. Also, she is possessed of a perseverance to accom- plish whatever she undei-takes. To many of the school activities has this energetic person contributed her best. Luck to you, “Kay.” SIGNE M. LINDGREN “She that was ever fair and never proud Had tongue at will, and yet never loud.” CLASS BASKETBALL SCIENCE CLUB Signe has journeyed through the five years of the high school course in a reticent, pleasing manner. Always thei’e prevails about her a cei-tain calmness that is so soothing. We sel- dom see that look of agitation which is common to the excitable character. A mighty fine basketball player is she! META Forty-five DASPINA LYGOMENOS Look into her eyes and you will see there the reflection of friendship.” SECRETARY, SENIOR CLASS TRAFFIC SQUAD SCIENCE CLUB FRENCH CLUB Carefree, willing and smiling, are but a few of the adjectives to describe “Daspy.” She was secretary of the senior class and we are very thankful to her for all she has done to assist us. Best wishes go to her when she takes up her studies at Perry’s Kin- dergarten. JESSIME LYGOMENOS “She seemed as happy as a wane That dances in the sea.’’ META FRENCH CLUB SCIENCE CLUB WOMAN S CLUB Who doesn’t know our one and only “Jess?” Who hasn’t heard of the Miss noted for her vivacity? If you’re ever feeling blue, just take a run over to see “Jess.” She’ll cheer you up. No one yet has ever seen her in a serious mood other than when she’s studying her U. S. history. DUNCAN A. MacLEOD “Give thy thought no tongue.” “Dune” is very reticent and retiring for he is not the type who seeks the limelight. Because of this character- istic he is only known by a choice few. “Mac,” however, has a sense of humor that makes life a joy for him and not an endless drudgery. Forty-six META CATHERINE M. MAHONEY “Character is our will, for what we will we are. SPANISH CLUB FRENCH CLUB META DEBATING CLUB SCIENCE CLUB Gayety and sobriety are agreeably mingled in Catherine’s charming na- ture. She has displayed a readiness to help in every one of our class affairs these five years and has played a prominent part in several of our clubs. Good luck to you, Catherine! REBECCA P. MANNING “It a friendly heart that has plenty of friends.” GLEE CLUB FRENCH CLUB SPANISH’ CLUB WOMAN’S CLUB “Becky” has always been our fa- vorite. She has proved herself a true friend to many and, as a result, has been especially popular. Always ready to laugh, always ready to help — loyal, trusting, merry — “Becky” will indeed make us proud of her. Keep smiling, “Becky.” MARGUERITE V. MANNIX “Virtue in itself commands happiness.” Marguerite is small in stature, but large in hear t, large in mind, and large in good nature. Rather retiring by disposition, Marguerite, by her willingness to serve, has won for her- self no little share of admiration and respect. It is the earnest hope of her many friends of ’33 that she will win her proper place in her chosen field. META Forty-seven GEORGE H. MANOLAKIS “Laughter is but the sunshine of the soul. GLEE CLUB SCIENCE CLUB BOYS ' DEBATING TEAM George is rather musically inclined and it is not difficult for us to picture him in the near future as an artist of the first magnitude. His tempera- ment, disposition and personality are such as to win for him friends wher- ever he goes. A smile for everyone and a cheery woi ' d in the most diffi- cult situation, mark him as one of the most jovial of the members of ’33. H. RICHARDSON MANOOGIAN “His strength is as the strength of ten be- cause his heart is pure.” OBSERVER META EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE, JUNIOR VARSITY FOOTBALL CLASS ODE “Dick’s” great character comprises a rare combination. He is admired for his athletic ability; respected for his capacity to understand and appre- ciate, and envied for his social attrac- tiveness. He won his first football “P” when he was only fourteen years of age and his position of leadership when he first entered school. We’ll be proud of him. ROSE MARON “The heavens laugh with you in your jubilee For the fullness of your skill they see.” VARSITY BASKETBALL META DEBATING TEAM A star in athletics, a star in her studies, who shall rise to a still high- er glory, is our “Rose.” She has a smile and a cheery word for everyone. She cannot help but succeed in what- ever she undertakes, for she is a capable girl whom everybody loves. Forty-eight M E T A JAMES F. MARRS “Progress is the activity of today, and the assurance of tomorrow.” SCIENCE CLUB Once again we are compelled to write, not unwillingly, of one who is quiet, reserved, dignified. Under the reserve “Jimmie” has stored a very large capacity for the appreciation of the humorous side of life, and there are plenty of occasions when he is the life of the party. His admirable qual- ities of heart and mind ought to win for him a large measure of success. DAHLIA F. MARTIN “A humorous heart and a wise, wise mind Both these excellences in her combined.” FRENCH CLUB SPANISH CLUB SCIENCE CLUB HONOR STUDENT A cup of sunshine, a teaspoonful of cleverness, a sprinkle of humor. Stir well together and the result will be Dahlia Martin. Dahlia has made her mark during the five years she has spent at our Alma Mater, and with out a doubt she will carry on ably in the years to come. john p. McCarthy “A presence which is not to be put by.” BAND FRENCH CLUB “Jack” is that tall smiling boy who plays the trombone in the band, but otherwise never makes much noise. Persevering and quiet “Mac” is very well liked among those who know him. His favorite sport is golf and in this field he has real ability. May good luck and success attend you, Jack. META Forty-nine LAWRENCE H. McCARTHY “A humorous twinkle in his eye That jrives to sobriety the lie.” STRAND NIGHT FOOTBALL SPANISH CLUB BASKETBALL Outwardly sober and serious, yet if you look closely you can see a hint of a smile at the corner of his generous mouth. “Bottles” is famed for his humorous witticisms, besides having a faculty for blundering into the wrong place at the right time. But he has the “stuff” men are made of, and we expect to hear good things of him in the days ahead. RAYMOND S. McDONALD “I would rather excel others in knowledge than in power.” PRESIDENT, SCIENCE CLUB STRAND NIGHT CLASS EXECUTIVE, JUNIOR BUSINESS MANAGER, META “Let’s ask Ray.” Yes, when there’s a dispute to be settled, a puzzle to be solved, or a question of diplomacy to be determined, “Mac” seems, always, the logical one to offer counsel. Ener- getic, resourceful, “Ray” possesses the qualities which enable him to vis- ualize and achieve. We don’t know what the future holds for you “Ray,” but best o’ luck. VIOLET G. McDUFF “A thousand graces which no rules can teach, And which a master hand alone can reach.” SCIENCE CLUB Petite and dainty! Who couldn’t recognize our little “Vi” coming along the corridor? Everybody likes this winsome miss because of her pleasing personality and stately mien. Here is one classmate who will never be forgotten! Fifty META DANIEL W. Mc-HUGH CATHERINE M. McVANN FRANCIS T. MEANEY “The man with a few words doesn’t have to take so many of them back. Although Dan has been with us during his senior year only, we cer- tainly enjoyed his good fellowship. Judging by his actions in the class- room, one would receive the impres- sion that he’s shy. But looks are de- ceiving, for he and his Ford have their secrets too. Good luck Dan. “A face with gladness overspread. Soft smiles by human kindness bred. SCIENCE CLUB SPANISH CLUB META A winsome miss, pleasant and agreeable at all times is the best way we have of characterizing our good friend, Catherine. One of her out- standing attributes is that ever- present willingness to serve, her de- sire at all times to do anything that will contribute to the happiness or comfort of another. Business is her field and we wish her all success. None but himself can be his parallel.’’ FOOTBALL BASEBALL GLEE CLUB SCIENCE CLUB “Meaney,” man of many moods, is best pictured as an original humorist. He might be called an Epicurean Stoic for although he follows the line of least resistance and derives enjoy- ment from common occurrences be does so casually and quietly. We’ll not forget his mellow laugh and his radiant smile. META Fifty-one ANNA MELANCHOOK “As kind a heart and loving soul as e’er there was on earth.” SPANISH CLUB SCIENCE CLUB By Milton, and that’s not his last name! Boys, when the girl of your dreams turns you down and it seems as if your heart would break, see Anna, our class representative in the nursing profession. And what a nurse she’ll make! We have it on authority that Anna will specialize in cases of the heart. HYMAN E. MERKEN “Still waters run deep.” During class periods “Hy” may seem to be of a retiring nature, but during recess periods or after school hours, it’s a differen t story. We all know that he takes a keen interest in both school and outside athletics. We find that his chief weakness is golf. Good luck, “Pro!” JOHN MICALCHUCK “A broad smile is always a good tonic.” CLASS BASKETBALL FOOTBALL For his sterling qualities of sports- manship displayed on the gridiron and his pleasant characteristics, we are sure that a most successful future lies ahead for “Tec” who, by his broad smile and willingness to partake in class affairs, has won our admiration. We have confidence in your future! THEODORE S. MINOT “The gloried gridiron gladiator.” BASKETBALL FOOTBALL “Ted” is rather shy and retiring ' . He does not seek out the company of others, but prefers that they recog- nize and appreciate in him those sterl- ing qualities he possesses. Although it is said his heart is not at P. H. S., everyone here wishes him the best o’ luck! Hit the line hard, “Ted.” GENEVIEVE F. MOGAVERO “What is life, but to live.” TRAFFIC SQUAD WOMAN ' S CLUB CLASS PLAY FRENCH ' CLUB SCIENCE CLUB If you should hear a loud hearty laugh or someone say, “I don’t care,” you’ll guess correctly if you say it’s “Gen.” To be a student at Jackson is her ambition. In all sincerity we hope that she may continue to be as happy and gay in the future as she has been during her years with us. EDWIN T. MONSON “Actions speak louder than words.” FOOTBALL BASEBALL “Ed” is that strong, silent, giant from West Peabody, whom everybody admires. Although he is not very talkative we feel in his case that “thy modesty’s a candle to thy merit.” His presence among us will be sorely missed after we have bidden him good-bye for the last time. The best of luck to you, Ed, and may all your wishes be realized. META Fifty-three SARAH E. MOODY “Let kindness ever attend thy tongue.” SCIENCE CLUB Evidently this is “Red’s” motto, for we have never known her to speak an unkind word to anyone. But for all her gentleness, she possesses a very fine character. Study is one of Sarah’s virtues and preparedness is her password. Whatever she will do we know she will do well. A. ELLIOT MOULTON “He has merit, good nature, and integrity.” SCIENCE CLUB FRENCH CLUB Arthur, better known as Elliot, has gone through five years of high school gaining many friends. Although he does not play an outstanding part in school athletics, he is a loyal support- er of P. H. S. activities. Here is a secret. Elliot has a weakness —golf. Good luck to you, Elliot! CATHERINE MULCAHY “It is not the place, nor the condition, but the mind alone that can make anyone happy.” Although “Kitty” has been with us for but one short year, she has proved herself to be a great asset to the class of 1933. Her jovial, humorous and witty personality has helped to make her one of the most popular members of our class. Good luck to you in future years, “Kit.” i Fifty-four META ALBERT F. NEWHALL “Here today and gone tomorrow.” BASEBALL SCIENCE CLUB “Al” sure made our rivals step when he played on our high school nine, thus foreshadowing his success in the future in the baseball world. With his whole-hearted understand- ing, he will certainly be approved by the “umps” as he has been by all his classmates at good old P. H. S. MURIEL B. NEWTON “She hath a natural, wise sincerity A simple truthfulness.” SPANISH CLUB SCIENCE CLUB “Snooks” was known to us by her sincerity and simpicity. What a treasure Peabody High School is to lose. She has many qualities which will help her to succeed in her work. We know she will make our school proud of her and we hope that her ambition will be realized. STELLA NICKONCHUK “Thy modesty is a candle to thy merit.” SCIENCE CLUB “Stell” is one of our modest com- mercial sisters and a classmate in whom we may feel a justifiable pride. She is leaving Peabody High School this year amidst a class of friends and we know that her past and present standards held aloft in the future will merit the friendship and success which they so richly deserve. M E T A Fifty-five WILLIAM R. NOYES Silence is more musical than any song:.” An unobtrusive, loyal co-operative and helpful student is found never to be lacking in companionship. Just that type of person we may call “Bill.” Perhaps he may not display his business-like manner in some of his classes, but he certainly shows it during his history period. Good luck, Bill! CELESTA NUNES “A companion who is cheerful is worth gold.” SPANISH CLUB FRENCH CLUB “Una petite jeune fille” is Celesta with her dark, sparkling eyes, her pearly teeth and charming ways. She is always smiling and happy, bringing cheer wherever she goes. With such assets she will surely be successful in life. Good luck, Celesta! RICHARD H. O’BRIEN I may be small, but what little there ?s there, is there.” STRAND NIGHT SENIOR PLAY Cynical, sophisticated and sarcas- tic. And as the quotation is from his poem “I” you may gather some idea as to his fiery temperament. But “Dick” is an ideal classmate and his heart and hand work together to aid any senior enterprise. Fifty-six M E T A HELEN M. O’KARSKI “Merit is vvurthier than fame. INTER-CLASS BASKETBALL SCIENCE CLUB FRENCH CLUB Mother Nature certainly deposited a generous supply of vitality with this popular member of our class. Athletic Helen has taken an active part in basketball, and some day we may hear from her as a famous wom- an athlete. Whatever Helen chooses to follow, she has the vitality and will-power to carry her through. ANNA S. OLSEN “Happy am I, from care I’m free Why aren’t they all contented like me?” TRAFFIC SQUAD CLASS BASKETBALL Anna has been a cheery, congenial person to know and we hope that the separation at the end of our High School days will not be a permanent one. Anna took an active part in all the school sports and activities and we have certainly enjoyed her com- panionship. We expect to hear more from her. LEONARD T. ORLOWSKI “We welcome thee like a joyous thought.” “Len” is a happy-go-lucky sort, always ready for a joke or prank. Al- though never very serious, he has left a good impression on the minds of his classmates. He has a saving sense of humor which always makes even the most boring tasks seem trivial. Good luck, “Lennie” and may you realize all your ideals. M ETA Fifty-seven JOHN T. O’SHEA “I came, I saw, I conquered.” VARSITY FOOTBALL GLEE CLUB John needs no introduction to any senior. His work on the gridiron and his dramatic ability have be,en demon- strated to us. Actually “Kaiser” is a capable student, and extremely popu- lar. He bubbles over with confidence and self-assurance, and these person- al qualities alone make us feel certain that he will attain the success to which he aspires. TILLY L. PANASUK ‘‘Full of gentle kindness Her looks and language are.” SCIENCE CLUB “Tilly, the Toiler,” so I’ve heard her called. Nothing could be found more fitting than that title. Doesn’t she remind you of her ? But of course our Tilly is never late, but rather always on time to start her day right. She certainly will make an efficient private secretary for some fortunate business man. JULIA L. PAOLUCCI “Play up! Play up! And play the game! VARSITY BASKETBALL SCIENCE CLUB SPANISH CLUB Small stature, a lithe body and fast movement, compose the excellent basketball player who could be none other than “Julie.” Without her, our Varsity Team would have been lack- ing an indescribable something that Julie so unconsciously filled. It must have been that capability, character- istic of her alone. EDWARD G. PENNIMAN “Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.” BUSINESS MANAGER, OBSERVER SENIOR CLASS PLAY META PRESIDENT, SPANISH CLUB BAND In “Bud” we find the rare qualities of a true leader and manager. His sparkling personality has pervaded the school with an enthusiasm to fol- low the precedents that he sets. His efficient management of many worthy causes has won great admiration in the eyes of his classmates. You lead the way, “Bud,” we’ll follow! FRANK W. PENNIMAN, Jr. “True as the needle to the pole Or as the dial to the sun.” BAND SCIENCE CLUB Good old Frank — what shall we do without his witty sayings ? In spite of his humor, Frank has his serious moments. He has applied himself se- riously to his studies these five years and we know he will be well repaid for doing so. BERTHA M. PERFIKOWSKA “Thou whose exterior semblance Doth belie thy soul’s immensity.” SCIENCE CLUB Bertha is one of the kindest gentlest girls of the class of ’33. Whenever you see her in school, on the street, or at home, her main thought is to help someone. Best wishes from the class of ’33, “Bert.” May success be with you in the com- mei ' cial world. M ETA Fifty-nine ARTHUR P. PETKAVITCH “A man to act, not talk.” Few people have succeeded in mak- ing themselves so well liked as “Art.” He just can’t help it. His fine appear- ance and magnetic personality, coupled with his simplicity and mod- esty have shown him to be a typical example of the good qualities so prev- alent in the class of ’33. In the game of life, “Art” is bound to play a lead- ing role . Best wishes for success, “Art.” MARIE L. PIERCE A presence which will not be put aside.” GLEE CLUB TENNIS FIELD HOCKEY Possessed of a happy disposition, and always willing to help, “Piei’cie” is popular with everyone. She has taken an earnest part in many of our class activities and has been especial- ly interested in tennis. Her fine quali- ties should carry her far on the road to success. WALTER P. PLOMONDON “Good humor is the health of the soul.” SCIENCE CLUB Well, Walter, you can’t fool us. We know that you have your serious moments, even though we see you mostly when you are “wise cracking.” However, keep up the standard that you have set for yourself this year, and we know that you can’t fail to succeed. Good luck! I Sixty META FRANCES PRATT ANNIE RABCHENUK CARL RAFEY “For art is all in all.” CLASS PLAY WOMAN ' S CLUB SPANISH CLUB FRENCH CLUB This charming little miss is known among us for her artistic abilities. Quiet though she appears, there is a jolly, mischievous side to her nature which is revealed to her friends. May the world be as kind to you as you deserve, “Frannie.” “Look into her eyes and you will find there the reflection of friendship.” SPANISH CLUB SCIENCE CLUB Friendliness is Annie’s essential characteristic — her very eyes radiate friendly feeling. In spite of her merry air, many of us realize the courage with which she has carried on during these years and we admire her for it. May your future be happy, Annie. “Men judge us by the success of our efforts.” SCIENCE CLUB SPANISH CLUB CLASS PLAY ORCHESTRA BAND Since he was a diligent worker, Carl gained for himself a name for his splendid performance in our Class Play. With a poise and ease and a certain nonchalance, he has worked himself into our hearts. We bid him “adios” with the best of wishes for his future success. META Sixty-one WALDO F. REED The anecdote best defines the personality.” TRAFFIC SQUAD One never fails to find Waldo at his post of traffic. He has been a cheer- ful traffic officer during this year and everyone enjoyed walking past him, receiving his cheerful greeting. We wish you success, Waldo. GEORGE S. REID ‘‘A litfht heart lives long:.” STRAND NIGHT SCIENCE CLUB We can distinguish George by his red hair. George has not actively en- gaged in any high school functions, but he is known by the entire senior class. He is a good student, light- hearted and one who can mix business and pleasure. We feel sure that he will succeed in any endeavor. DAVID REMIS ‘‘Modesty is e’er a virtue.” SCIENCE CLUB Dave has never consciously sought the limelight, but don’t get the im- pression that he did not contribute his full share to the success of our va- rious school activities. He was always ready to lend his talent in any good cause. Dave will one day be one of those big business men we read about. Sixty- two l META SARA J. REMIS “A sweet girl with a sweet manner.” SCIENCE CLUB SPANISH CLUB Although Sara is one of the small- est members of our class, she has a big heart and has been so agreeable that she has won many friends. De- pendability is another quality that “Say” possesses in abundance. This quality will do much to bring her far up the ladder of success. DORIS M. ROBINSON “It never hurts to give a smile ; So I smile all the while.” A pleasant amiable classmate, al- ways ready to do her bit for class or school, is the best description we can suggest for Doris. Whenever thei ' e’s a pai’ticularly lively crowd, it’s a safe wager that Doris is the center of the attraction. We’ll miss charming Doris at the parting of the ways, but we are satisfied to see her going on to greater accomplishments. MADELYN E. ROBINSON “Good things come in small packages.” SPANISH CLUB If ever these three words could be applied to anyone, they can be most properly applied to Madelyn. She is rather a slight little lady, but has more “pep” than two her size. An ardent football fan, “Mad” was present at all the games. A good scholar and a real friend. We take this opportunity to wish you lots of happiness, “Mad.” SCIENCE CLUB Sixty-three I I ETA SOPHIE ROSENFELT “Goodness and simplicity are indissolubly united.” When we think of Sophie we pic- ture a girl with dark hair, sparkling brown eyes, and oh, such a cheery air. Have you ever seen her really serious ? Aha! I thought not. We may say good-bye at commencement, but we beg her, please, not to forget us. WILLIAM I. ROSS “Give every man thine ear, but few thy voice.” SCIENCE CLUB You need not fear that “Bill” will ever be considered a “forgotten man.” True it is that he was never the most conspicuous member of the class, but he was always ready to produce when called upon. In his quiet way he contributed his share to our senior successes and we expect him to con- tinue to render service to the com- munity. Best wishes, “Bill.” DORIS E. RUSSELL “It ' s nice to be natural when you’re natural- ly nice.” VALEDICTORIAN OBSERVER META PRESIDENT, DEBATING CLUB Here in Doris we find the essence of good fellowship. “Giggles” as she is affectionately known to her in- timates, has left a lasting impression on her classmates and upon the fac- ulty of P. H. S. Her qualties of mind and soul have won a warm spot in the hearts of every one of us. Sixty-four META BOLIC A. SCHERVINSKI “Simple in manner like all great men.” Although “Billy” has never been known as a fluent speaker, he has been able to obtain what he desired. While not an active participator in school athletics, he has shown a keen interest in their outcome. We hope that success awaits him in the near future. ELINOR M. SHEA ‘‘Smile, and the world smiles with you.” SPANISH CLUB She’s rather silent when we discuss our studies, but when sports are brought into the conversation, up pops “El” to give her authoritative views. She’s a “deluxe” edition of a sportswoman. Who wouldn’t like to be the copywright owner? IRENE SEVERANCE “Her smile will be always with us. SCIENCE CLUB SPANISH CLUB Irene, a pleasant young lady from the southern end of the city, has proved to be a most popular class- mate. Who hasn’t been greeted in the morning by Irene with a cheery smile and “hello.” A good student, an ener- getic class supporter, we lose a real pal by graduation. Your class joins in wishing you a happy and success- ful future. META Sixty-five SAMUEL SHAFFAVALO “Better jobs generally go to men who prove their ability to outgrow smaller jobs.” VARSITY FOOTBALL SPANISH CLUB “Sam” is quite a conscientious student who masters anything he at- tempts. He is enrolled in a southern college where we are confident he will make his mark. Be careful “Sammy” those southern “gals” go in for foot- ball players. .JAMES SHAMBON “A smile is his password, And all bid him enter.” “Jimmy” is quiet (except in room 37 and then you should see him talk French with his hands). He is best described as an ear to ear grin sitting atop a short sturdy body. His happy- go-lucky air is contagious. That ex- plains the smiles of the care-burdened seniors. MARY V. SHEEHY “Charms strike the sight, but merit wins the soul. SCIENCE CLUB FRENCH CLUB INTERCLASS BASKETBALL META TRAFFIC SQUAD Serious people have untold powers stored somewhere, but not everyone can find the key to the treasure house. Mary is that type of girl who pos- sesses such a treasure house. Al- though she has remained at P. H. S. but four years, we know that she has left a favorable impression behind her. HENRY SMIDT “Unborn Tomorrow and dead Yesterday Why fret about them if Today be sweet?” TRAFFIC SQUAD SCIENCE CLUB Dependability is the quality that seems to characterize Henry partic- ularly and we can think of nothing that will be of greater value to him than this same reliability which is so desirable in anyone. Responsiveness, alertness, eagerness to acquire all that was offered in the classroom or out, ought to indicate a rosy future for this son of ’33. ANNE B. SHNIRMAN “She that is of a merry heart hath a con- tinual feast.” SCIENCE CLUB FRENCH CLUB Who doesn’t know Anne? Well, she is the girl possessing eyes that crinkle with amusement. Wherever Anne is seen she always has a smile on her face. Her good nature and pleasant disposition will certainly help her in future life. Good luck to you, Anne! EDMUND H. SMITH “Music hath charms.” SCIENCE CLUB FRENCH CLUB Musically inclined, Edmund has been very popular in our midst. All good things must have an ending and so our days with Edmund are at a close, but we know that while he goes on in search of higher and better things, he will never forget his high school classmates. META Sixty-severi ALBERT A. SOMES “The only way to have a friend is to be one.” SCIENCE CLUB Albert is one of those students at P. H. S. who make scores of friends but seldom an enemy. To those who are so unfortunate as not to know him, he may seem of a retiring and bashful nature. But we know better, for he is the possessor of a fine sense of humor. Good luck, “Al.” HELEN L. SPENCE “A heart as soft, a heart as kind. As in the whole world thou canst find.” Although she is not as loquacious as a great many members of our class, she can proudly boast of a long list of friends! Who wouldn’t be at- tracted by the sunny smile and kind- heartedness of “Betty?” We, of ’33, wish that the years of success are not far ahead of you. IRVING J. STAID “Modesty is the conscience of the body.’’ VARSITY FOOTBALL TRACK CLASS FOOTBALL HOCKEY Too much cannot be said about “Socks” — he who says little about himself, but accomplishes things which speak loudly in his favor. Those who have known him at P. H. S. have always considered him a true friend. His methodical mind has given him a high scholastic standing during his high school career. I ,1 Sixty-eight META ALBERT STERNBERG “Music is well said to be the speech of angels. BAND ORCHESTRA If you should ask any musician the question, “What P. S. H. student has a saxophone tone equal to the best?” the answer would be “A1 Sternberg.” Even though he conducts his own or- chestra and plays in several others, “Al” is one of the foremost students in our class. Success in everything “Al.” JOSEPH A. STILLER “Eloquence is vehement simplicity.” We hope that no one has been at all deceived in “Joe.” Before you really become acquainted with him you might get the impression that he is timid, quiet and bashful. Quite the contrary! Those who were fortunate enough to really know him soon dis- covered a jolly friendly nature. “Bon voyage, “Joe.” ELIZABETH M. STREICHARDT “It is a great accomplishment to know how to make the best of life as it comes.” Although “Betty” was with us only one year, in that short time she won her way into the hearts of many of her classmates of ’33. Her good humor, kindly disposition and happy manner will assist her materially in finding a high position in life. It is our wish that along the road of life she will find happiness and true success. META Sixty-nine FRED L. SWEENEY “I came, I saw, I conquered.” SCIENCE CLUB FOOTBALL SPANISH CLUB CLASS PRESIDENT, SENIOR “Freddie” will probably interpret this as a compliment to his success with the opposite sex. But stay! We refer to his indefatigable spirit and his unquenchable thirst for adventure which so predominates his high school career and which has placed him as our leader. JOHN F. THOMAS “A calm self-reliant spirit and a dignity that lends assurance and charm.” SCIENCE CLUB Honesty of purpose, sincerity in every word and action, seriousness in tasks laid out for him — these seem to be the major forces at work in the heart of “Jack” Thomas. Underneath it all, however, we feel there is an abundance of good humor which needs only the occasion to bring it into play. With these qualities “Jack” is well equipped to go forth to battle. And we’re very confident that he’ll give a good account of himself. JAMES J. TIERNEY “He represents America’s spirit This modern business man.” JUNIOR PRESIDENT SENIOR TREASURER Efficiency! That’s “Jimmy,” our High School business man. Selling papers, tickets, pins or “what have you?” Gazing into the crystal ball can you not see him ? He’s the man in the background who makes the puppets, called the masses, move to his bidding. Seventy META CECILE M. VACHON “A string: of beating:, bleeding hearts. She trampled ’neath her tripping feet.” FRENCH CLUB SCIENCE CLUB GLEE CLUB Cecile, our High School Cleopatra, and many of the boys are fervently wishing that she might (for them) turn to the role of Juliet. Charming, petite, vivacious, alluring, humorous! She seems just about three feet tall; just a sparkling brown-eyed baby doll. What more need we say? CHARLES C. VAJIAMES “The days of our youth are the days of our glory.’ “Charlie” is another one of those quiet young men who evidently be- lieve firmly in the truth that “actions speak louder than words.” During our years with him we have never thought of “Charlie” as a very bois- terous individual. But we do know that he means to contribute always his best efforts to the task in hand; and with this idea as his watchword he will win ultimate success. REUBEN VALDOFSKY “It’s the wise head that makes the still tongue.” SCIENCE CLUB Shy, diffident, yet carefree — that’s Reuben. By his quiet ways, he has gained a host of friends who have learned that beneath the veil of silence he is always willing to lend a helping hand wherever he can. Best wishes of success go out to you Reuben, from every member of the class of ’33. M ETA Seventy-one RAYMOND J. VOREL “Simple in manner like all great men.” SCIENCE CLUB Gifted with an easy-going disposi- tion, Ray is one of our most popular classmates. Although we did not hear much from him during- his high school course, he was always ready to lend assistance to any class activity. Your classmates join in wishing you the best of luck and hope success follows you into the future, “Ray.” STEPHEN S. VOUNESSEA “Charms strike to sight, but merit wins the soul.” SCIENCE CLUB CLASS ODE In looking over the class roll of ’33 we can find no member who was more loyal, more helpful, more willing than “Steve.” In every class activity this friend of all of us was among the first to volunteer in “putting it over.” And when “Steve” put his shoulder to the wheel, things began to move. With his happy way and his many-sided ability he is bound to win a high place in life. CHARLES L. VRETTOS “But behind that gilded throne The jester rules supreme.” FRENCH ' CLUB STRAND NIGHT SCIENCE CLUB CLASS PLAY It is too bad that “Joe” could not have lived in the medieval days for he would have been in his prime, Ye Courte Jester. His infectious grin, his humor, his solicitous understanding and his clever impersonations have livened many weary days for us. Away in the distance we perceive the Grand Dame Cinema, calling one of her children. Seventy-two M ETA JEANETTE WALDMAN “The unspoken word never does harm.” SCIENCE CLUB GLEE CLUB Petite, carefree and gay, with a heart full of cheerfulness. It’s no other than “Jean,” a member of the commercial class and an efficient student. It won’t be long before we’ll see “Jean” hurrying down the street mornings to arrive at the office on time to take dictation. Eh, “Jean?” RICHARD R. WALKER “This world belongs to the energetic.” Paradoxical as it may seem, “Dick’s” quiet personality is rather colorful. He takes himself seriously and so has won the respect of his classmates. He has always done his best in support of the class and in return he is wished every success. In the field of aviation “Di ck” ought to be a huge success. ETHEL M. WATKINS “Beauty is truth and truth beauty.” Ethel’s most admired qualities are sincerity and truthworthiness. We cannot help but be impressed by them, and by her unfailing, good nature. Ethel possesses a pair of sparkling eyes and a happy smile. She holds a high position in the friendship and esteem of her class- mates. M ETA Seventy-three ETHEL WEINSTEIN ORCHESTRA VARSITY BASKETBALL Ethel may be characterized as a lively girl, full of vim, vigor and vi- tality. Her cheerful smile has gained for her innumerable friends. Ethel has shown marked ability both as a basketball player and as a musician. We all wish her the best of success for the future. EDNA E. WILLIAMS “Friendship is love without its wings.’ ' Though ever unobtrusive, yet in her own way Edna is one of the jolliest of companions and truest of friends. Her soft voice and ever-winning smile typify her character. In class she is studious and reliable, but out of class she is one of the most delightful com- panions. SIDNEY WILLIAMS “Quiet and purposeful in his actions.” CLASS BASKETBALL CLASS BASEBALL “Sid” has won the respect and ad- miration of all his classmates by his scholastic ability and personality. Al- though he doesn’t talk a great deal, what he does say is worth listening to. We bid him good-bye with best wishes for the success which he richly deserves. Seventy-four META ARTHUR S. WILT “True worth is in being, not seeming.” VARSITY FOOTBALL HONOR STUDENT VARSITY BASKETBALL TRACK TEAM STRAND NIGHT So many good things might be said about “Art” that we would need a volume to do him justice. Alert in the classroom, a star on the gridiron, a real fellow all the time, it is a safe prediction for us to make that he will do extremely well in the days to come. Hit the line hard, “Art.” MORRIS WOLOSHEN “A foolish little game. Not worthy of a name.” GOLF SCIENCE CLUB Golf — golf — and more golf. We think Morris eats it, sleeps it, lives it and plays it. And talks it. No, he should have used a mashie! Aw, g’wan, Jones is better than Hagen, etc. With all the interest he shows in his national pastime we feel that the world may just as well get ready to receive into its arms the golfer of all time, our “Morrie.” CHARLES XINDARIS “His movements are music.” ORCHESTRA BASEBALL BAND STRAND NIGHT The incomparable Mr. X. Will Pea- body High School ever secure as novel an orchestra leader as “Cind- ers ?” His gestures and pantomimic actions label him as one of the most energetic and whole-hearted students among us. He is the Paul Whiteman of the future. Seventy-five META CHARLES S. YOUNG, JR. “Earnest men never think in vain.” SCIENCE CLUB Quiet almost to the point of shy- ness, “Charlie” has about him, never- theless, the air of one who knows just what he wants and the manner in which he is to get what he wants. Not at all talkative is the son of ' 33; yet when he speaks he says something which in itself distinguishes him from many. He’ll show us plenty of action in the future. WILLIAM J. ZINKAVITCH “Good humor is the health of the soul.” If you want to meet a real fellow, just ask for an introduction to “Billy.” During the five years we have known him at P. H. S. we have always found him most agreeable and dependable. If “Billy” continues his work in the aggressive manner which he has already displayed, we are con- fident he will meet with success. MILDRED ZALL “Laugh and the world laughs with you.” DEBATING CLUB SCIENCE CLUB Mildred has giggled her way into the hearts of numerous friends at P. H. S. In the midst of the most serious class, a giggle will be heard and Mildred is found to be the guilty one. However, she is a very popular young lady and has been an active worker in the many social affairs of the class. We wish her well. ROSE A.

BAND DEBATING TEAMS. BOYS’— GIRLS’ DEBATE, MAY 1933 META Ninety-one CLASS PROPHECY Itching: feet? A desire for travel and adventure? I ' ve always had it. Since way back in old Peabody High School. And talking- of P. H. S.. reminds me of the saying that it’s a small world after all, for in my travels, I ' ve seen everyone of the old gang. In 1949 one bright sunny morning, I avv ke from a deep sleep in the little town of Winslow in Michigan. Need I say chat I awoke in an empty grain car and with the aid of one Stanley Giezitsky, the brakeman. Heaving a sigh. I dropped off the left side of the train, colliding with Edmund Smith, the yardmaster, and knocked his spec- tacles from his nose to the grouid, thereby adding insult to injury. Disregarding our schooltime acquaintance, he called to Francis Kane and Michael Frasca, two switchmen, who grabbed my arms and forth- with marched me to the local bailiwick, to await the sheriff. No sooner had we arrived when large as life, in walked Sheriff Arthur Wilt, followed by court officers, Charles Vajiames and Richard O’Brien. Hard upon their heels came Judge Albert F. Somes. Expecting leniency because of old acquaintance, I grinned amiably and called them all by their initial names. In return, I received haughty nods and Mr. O ' Brien cried. “Stan’ up you, and then Waldo Reed, Clerk, cried, Ovez, oyex — all persons ” The first case was Frederick Leo Timothy Sweeney, arrested on a charge of disturbing the peace. His case was continued when no one cculd be found to interpret, as he did, No spik d’ English. His lawyer, Reuben Valdorsky, pleaded eloquently and his wife’s sister. Miss Mary Eagan, a rather wealthy business woman, sat in tears. The heartstrings of the prosecutor, Bill Zinkavitch, twanged loudly and his speed and dash slowed as abruptly as that ’29 Ford of his. James Tierney, ever the business man, went his bail. And the party left the courtroom. Next Case — Carl Rafey, apt and ardent agitator. Shaking his shaggy head, waxing eloquently and violently, he spurned defense and burst into speech— one hour two — . The judge absently looked at his watch and cried, Ten years ; court adjourned for noon recess. Afternoon, my case was called and I was charged with vagrancy, trespass, hitting a man with glasses, and bribery for smiling at the judge. As I had one dollar and sixty-three cents I was no vagrant, but I was charged five dollars for trespass, ten for hitting the man with glasses and five for bribery. Nellie LeLake, standing behind me, whispered in the ear of Celia Sogoloff, who they t ell me is an under- taker’s assistant, — I honestly think the judge should be tried for robbery instead. As 1 was about to be led out by the officers, fate intervened, and Miss Eleanor Kelley, the village spinster, intervened saying, I ' ll pay the poor mans fine, for I Ihink he has an honest face. Her chauffeur, Sam Shaffavalo, proceeded to do the honors. After my profuse thanks she, with a spirited shake of her head, took my arm and we proceeded to her canary colored limousine, where the footman Arthur Petkavitch, anxiously waited. We proceeded to her Mansion Le Chateau de Belles Fleurs. A marvelous place indeed. The gateman was Arnold Faria, resplendent in black and gold braid. And just inside, whom should I see but Bill Cullen and Fred Driscoll carefully weeding a bed of petunias. Eleanor persuaded me to spend the night there and in the morning I’d be free to go anywhere I wished. Why? I don’t know, but I, glad to be rid of the confining element which had so recently hovered over- head, was not loath to stay. The Butler Dunn (his first name was Ebbie as I remember it) cast a supercilious glance and with his lip curling in my direction, said, Tea is served, mum. At the staircase, who should I run into but Rose Maron and Tillie” Groman playing jackstones ; and halfway up, Manley Davis was teaching Ed” K’ockenhull to stand on her head, while Walter Plomondon and Rita Mannix were playing paper dolls at the top. As I passed around the corner I had a feeling as if I’d just passed a squirrel cage at Franklin Park. It may have been the spiral staircase — but I proceeded to my chamber with a bathroom and running liquor next door and when I clutched at the draperies for support at my astonishment to see John Cochrane in a plumber’s disguise stretched out under the tub, in came John Hubisz saying, Did you ring, sir? 1 replied no, and upon looking over his shoulder, perceived Mrs. Hubisz. (former Mary Fleming) standing there. (I didn ' t think that she ' d let him get far alone.) After a bath and a shave I turned on the radio I found in the room, a MacDonald-Walker model. This is little Dimples LeCain, your favorite announcer, from Station WZY. introducing Violet McDuff and Georgia Coombs in a heart rending ballad, The Soul of An Angel on High, by James Capellos and John Kucher, advertising the Gardner- Sternberg Brush Company. Then came Raymond Hussey preaching economy, followed by Dan McHugh who gave a long technical but highly interesting discussion of hockey with a few references to fancy skating, featuring Miss Ellen Davidson. As the program appealed not, I turned it otf and sat in the easy chair. I picked up a beautifully bound little volume of poems. The name of the author struck my eye, Edith Hillman. I read two poems, then, wearying of it, put it down and at random selected another volume by Doris Russell and Dahlia Martin. Zoo and Ornithologists, with colorful pen sketches by Barbara Harris and Barbara Batchelder. At last the bell for supper — no, the maid, Helen Krochmal, says it’s dinner that is served, with that charming, engaging smile as of yore, and a half wink. She preceded me down the hall and at a large double door, paused to say, This way sir. Again that wink, and I was all a-flutter. Dinner was served by two charming misses, Mary Dunleavy and JUST IMPRESSIONS ALICE Accentor META Celestia Nunes, dressed alike as two peas in a pod. The Reverend John Keane said grace, and we proceeded to eat. After dinner, Miss Kelley excused herself and the Bishop and re- tired to the library. I. wishing for an early start in the morning, thanked my hostess and proceeded to try to find that charming maid. Disappointed at finding it was her night off, 1 retired to my room and spent a pleasant hour with ‘Confessions of a Flapper” by Helen Godfrey. As I retired I noticed in the bed stand, a newspaper clipping headed: “Miss Elizabeth Halpern Startles Home Circle — For- sakes Richardson Manoogian, young but handsome interne for her art.” Absent-mindedly reminiscing, 1 finished disrobing and put out the light. It seemed that I had no sooner dropped off to sleep when I was awakened by merry shouts from the lawn. 1 looked out the window Lo and behold it was morning. Doris Feeney was playing the hand- organ and Charlie Vrettos was dancing around on the string. Capti- vated by the weird strains of the music, Mary Cola, Marguerite Mc- Vann, Annie Rabchenuck, and Mary Boyko swirled on their pretty pink toes in an old-fashioned folk dance. Amused, I cast my eye now and then in their direction as I un- hurriedly dressed. I waited not for breakfast but slipped out of the back door and headed for town. Stopping in at the Noyes-Ross Drug Store for a sandwich and a glass of milk, whom should I see but Priscilla Anderson manhunting. She was in earnest conversation with “Here ' George, (the fizz-ician i who, after taking my order served me two cups of coffee and a doughnut. John Holder, the druggist, plying his trade in the back room, took his eye away from the peep hole long enough to say, “I love her work.” I consumed my repast and proceeded along the Dusty pike leading from town. Seeing an automobile approaching I put out my hand and who should it be but Rebecca Manning driving a brand new Packard coupe? Some class. Eh? Evidently she had ascended into the role of village gossip. Oh yes, she had three children, all girls. It was lovely in San Jacinto Valley, and didn’t 1 love Denver? Charlie Burns had married “Gen Mogavero and they had three boys. Oh yes, he had a wonderful photography business with offices in three states and fifty cities. Ann Melanchook is a nurse, and Ethel Watkins a clerk in a drv goods store. Frannie Pratt has onened a school of elocution ; Milton Goldberg is a Rabbi, and Abe Lerner is a bold bad gangster, the town Big Shot, with Sara Remis as his moll. Rebecca saw James Shambon working as street cleaner in Tuckson. Nevada, Rachel Gang- loft selling yard goods in Houston, Texas, and “Moise” Woloshen street singing in St. Louis. And, oh, did I remember Evelyn Earle? Yes. She is married to the young Dean of Ashley College. And don’t let me forget Mary Sheehy, she is the echo in the valley for the young crop of promising young yodelers at a Denver Hotel. Rebecca slowed to go into her town Dugville and asked me to stay for lunch, but, as a boy I was subject to violent earaches and I, as politely as possible, re- fused. “And now, George. ’ for I am talking to George Manolakis, night editor for the Boston Daily Moon. I caught on the back of a truck marked Schervinski and Minott, truckers, New York to Chicago, fast freight. We whizzed along the road at a terrific pace, with bill-boards to the right of us and bill-boards to the left of us. One, I particularly Ninety-three noticed, said “Is my face red?” “That’s because I ' m smoknig Everett cigarettes, they choke. Smoke long passes, not a miss in a carload.” The model was “Kaiser” O’Shea. We stopped in Niagara Falls long enough to see Lillian Anderson and Charlotte Edelstein go over Niagara Falls in a barrel. We crossed over to Canada. And presiding over the bar who should we see but “Tec” Michalchuck and Mickey Harrison. The announcer for the floor show was “Penny” Abel, a singer, well- known if not notorious. The chorus entitled “Lawdie let me Kick,” led by Alice Fellows, consisted of Ruth Hanson (chubby as ever!, Muriel Legro, beautiful and not so dumb ; Dorothy LeCain, Ann Shnir- man, Alice Boyle, Helen Cornichuk. and “Cutie” Doris Robinson. As the picture would not be complete without Cecile. little Miss Vachon is that charming little hostess in the flaming red dress, the one over there with the flaming provocative lips and highly commercialized eyes. And there you see “Frannie” Foss banging out these tuneful ditties on the piano there, in the spotlight as ever. “Bottles” McCarthy, “Red” Kiley, and Joe Stiller are the comedians. After witnessing the show we left for New York. It was dark so I slept the whole trip and dreamed of a trip with Marrs to Mars. And of playing opposite Althea Dempsey, the famous screen star; discussing philosophy with Alex Cornichuck ; or the science of love and significance of a kiss with Steve Vounessea. The impossibility of the last dream, coupled with the sophisticated air of Steve, woke me with a start. Ah! New York at last. Saturday afternoon, a double header. The Giants and the Phillies. Batteries — Ed. Monson and John Kramer for the Giants, with Ray Vorel and Sydney Williams for the Phillies. A1 Newhall sat in the manager’s box for the Phillies while George Reid gave the Giants their instructions. Henny Hallinan was the star of the day. He made a three-base hit, a double and two singles out of four times at the bat and his work at left-field was marvelous. Art Gourley dusted off’ the plate and later received his pay in pop bottles. Evening: The glamour of the world’s largest metropolis. Gold braided Thomas Doherty at the doorway of the famous Palais D’ Or. It was intermission. After calling the garcon and requesting cham- pagne cocktails, I perceived the orchestra coming back. The band was led by the incomparable Charlie Xindaris whose incongurous gyrations reminds one of that specie of entertainer called a Hula-Hula dancer. He started; — the band started: he cocked his head to one side. Jack McCarthy, the trombone player suddenly tossed down his instrument and cried, “One horn player, lost, strayed, or stolen.” After much searching, who should be found where but in the bell of the gigantic horn curled fast asl eep and snoring as only the innocent can, but Harold Dowdell. At last, with many twists and turns (on the part of Mr. Xl, the band started. Then muted, as the Trio Adagio consisting of Ruth Beres as the graceful acrobatic soloist and Miss Julia Paloucci and Hilda Dragon assisting. In the modem terminology, it was a howl ! ! Then appeared Bernice Felt and Barbara Bolles in one of those fantastic, loose-jointed dances, a skeleton wiggle, called the Osteopaths Night Horse. Over in the corner who should I see but Jessie Lygomenos the famous surgeon, performing a delicate operation, removing the fatty tissue from a piece of beel steak. Watching her moves was Amelia r . t !r .C- A rA W k 4 t ax 3 Ki i S ' t I M litre S S o f Mo-blo — l ice Koo c k,eru K II ! | t Tt e 4 Hdix I BILL No Ye MdfJ D j ile juy f. _ ID a h d $ tiaN0 lffCon | e _y A FEW OF OUR BRIGHT LIGHTS META Cherwek, singing “Minnie the Moocher.” I was startled to hear from directly behind me, “Will you have some cigarettes, Ol’ Gol’s, not a cough in a . . . from, clad in the apparel of an Atlantic City beauty winner, oh, oh,- Gladys Anderson. Halt ! — who enters now but those notorious society women. Miss Alice Koocheruck and Miss Stella Nickonchuk. Hanging gushing on the arm of Miss Nickonchuk is Arthur Chulyk, while with a resigned air the fascinating, alluring, eye-commanding, notorious, 42nd Street playboy, blithe, debonair Frankie Penniman saunters along at the side of Miss Kooeheruk. I had had a hard day and so I gathered together my party and made for the exit. Glory be hennaed hair and all, sat Marie Pierce, the check-girl, in the midst ot a violent quarrel with Gene Kowalski, Fifth Avenue Playboy, because she’s cocked her feet upon the shelf, and put her heel through his nat. Rather disgusted. I passed out the door and took the first taxi in the line (without looking of course) and knocked Aphrodite Kutrubes right out of William George’s arms. The taxi driver, Clement Horrigan, muttered, and I hastily extricated myself, hopped in the next taxi and cried, “beat it !” I heaved a sigh as we made off. The glamour of the largest city in the world and the money center of a nation. Wall Street. As 1 passed the little church that marks the beginning of the street, I could hear the strains of a wedding march. I stopped entranced, for wedding music always entrances me (as long as it is not my own). A long-bodied blue Stutz racing model dashed down the street toward me. Locked brakes protested and tires squealed. Crash I nearly catapulted from the U-Drive-It Ford I had. “Oh, I’m so sorry.” with a glance at the church, “Are we late? Oh dear, well anyway here is my insurance card, report it and all will be taken care of.” The young ladies? Oh, Rose Bacherman, the speaker, president of the Jewish- American Young People ' s Advancement Society. Marjorie Conley, society reporter for a New York paper, and stately, regally aloof Miss Grace E. Hayes, Society’s Queen. “Oh dear, again, I’m so distracted to hear Miss Eleanor’s (Hayes! fourth marriage. “Fourth, to whom I inquired. “Why don’t you read the papers, who but Peter Billert of the Safe, Sane, Sensible, Step-Saving Shoe Company. Best man, oh — Charles Bagley, and Catherine Horrigan, bridesmaid. As they passed on to the church I started along. I glanced overhead and saw a sign, Penniman- Penniman Company, Ltd., Edward G. Penniman, president. New York, London, Paris, Melbourne and Rio de Janiero. Astonished, no not astonished, but intrigued, I parked the car and entered the gigantic structure. The exchange itself was on the bottom floor. And what a sight greeted my eyes. At the left was Arthur Gold chalking up and erasing figures from a large blackboard, Nicholas Hubisz running here and there, doing nothing and getting nowhere. Clamor and bustling and I wanted peace and quiet. About to leave, I saw Peter Bashuk Ninety-five jump to the floor and cry, “Staid, Thomas Technocrat Rubber Toothpick Company, one block, 5,000 shares $1.50, who’ll give me $3.00 — Sold! to the man in the brown derby and cane, (Charles S. Young, Jr.) for $2.25. I passed out and down the street, passed gigantic houses. At last the river. A large building sitting out over the river caught my eye and as I drew closer I saw a sign. Lead weights for rent, non-rustable, and free use of our genuine Capt. Kidd plank, any time after office hours. Cash payment necessary, Orlowski and O ' Neil. I gazed absorb- edly at a boat having two men in it, who seemed to be fishing with long iron hooks, and upon inquiry I found that they were salvaging lead weights. One cried to the other, “Business is sure dropping off since our female president. Miss Mary Henry went into office and passed those Wall Street bills.” Having seen Wall Street, I returned down-town, idly observing as I went. See that tall building, the H. M. O’Karski School of Terpiscor- ean Art, and there the Lindgren Silk Stocking Company showroom which boasts as models, Madalyn Robinson and Sophie Rosenfelt, Bertha Perfikowska, manager. Elinor Shea is standing absorbedly looking at Bill Cronin who is pointing out the fine points of the girls I mean the stockings- while Muriel Newton is trying to powder her nose in a hurry while Elizabeth Streiehardt impatiently awaits her turn. Now we understand Bill’s latent lure, as he used to say. Out- side arose a dreadful sound my ! who and what should it be driving a truck playing a piano, singing and selling song sheets but Daspina Lygomenos at the wheel, Catherine Mahoney at the piano, Ethel Moody singing, Anna Olsen and Tilly Panasuk doing a well — a — dance and Irene Severance selling music. What a clamor! Passing down Broadway, I saw Duncan McLeod in kilts playing a bag-pipe while Arthur Moulton sang “Just Wee Docken Doris” in front of the Meaney-Merken “Ye Auld Thistle Saloon.” My, my, and who should that be but Dorothy Dee tossing flapjacks in the Elite Lunch Room, while Anna Clark and Elizabeth Foster carry away the steaming piles to satiate the appetite of “Angel” Danda and Mary Gormley. I, realizing it was well towards mid-day entered and was served by Mildred Zall who passed back my dime tip and said she didn’t chew gum. I passed the afternoon at a matinee at the old Bowery Theatre. There was a Mickey Mouse comedy featuring Ethel Weinstein as Krazy Kat, and Edna Williams as Minnie Mouse, while Dave Remis was Mickey. Suddenly I remembered my appointment with you. I hurriedly left the theatre and enroute I gently nosed Helen Spence, the usher, to a seat in aisle. I hastily appropriated a taxi and was late only be- cause Henry Smidt. the Lon Chaney of ’49, had just arrived. The taxi was held up although the meter relentlessly ran its way. The door opened and Joe Canal entered. “Last call for the Sunday edition,” — make it snappy “Cap.” “Well Dusty, here is (he $100 for your story and read it in the morning’s Supplement. “Adventures of Dusty Briggs, Gentleman of the Road.” W.

I am perfectly sane, at least during the writing: and reading of this legal document which I declare to be the supreme, valid, and true subscription of th e last will and testament of my classmates who are soon to be deceased, if not already, for we will be lost from our “Mammy or our Alma Mater forever, from this day forth until we meet again by the heavenly gate and break our ranks accordingly. This class drags their weary trod-upon feet across the thresholds into a new life with ultra-violent memories of this past five years of hectic war. Some leave ragged with scars of small eraser battles, some with the spoils and fruit of a career, while most of us who remain as “Untouchables” come out of the canteen with pleasant (or otherwise) memories of vivid (or otherwise) happenings which will always remain as glaring gems in our now developed (or otherwise) craniums. Taking our oath and vow to take a running broad jump and hurdle for the first eligible millionaire and lead the remains to the nearest justice of the peace or bank president, and to smash or be smashed in the social, political, and economical sides of life, I, Edward George Penniman, will proceed to gather up the broken milk bottles, detention slips, unsigned permits and mouldy crusts of bread to inject into this document as material remains of a class which I proclaim to be sane, sorrowful, sagacious and sophisticated. The opportunity now arises to enumerate a few unforgettable characteristics which the individual testators of this document do now have and hold, in sickness and in health for richer or for poorer, ’till the courts do them part, and hereby bequeath to certain and capable (or otherwise) individuals who are found in the underclass ranks, the following : ELIZABETH HALPERN leaves her dignity, poise and polish to one Anna Marie Cuddire who will need it to keep up with her non-London resident “Bobby.” CHARLES VRETTOS bequeaths his one man band and turkey trot strut to Joseph Howe who may or may not take advantage of it. FRANCIS FAIRCHILD FOSS leaves the school piano and numer- ous vacant offices to Honey Eagan, naming her sister, Ross, as trustee for this provision. ARTHUR HARRISON bequeaths to Donald Gourley his secrets of “chislerism,” some checkered ties, shirts and garters and a book entitled, Learn To Love The Easy Way” to J. Dzierak. GRACE ELINOR HAYES leaves her charm, good-will, and man- ners to each member of the Junior Class, who should benefit both individually and socially. FREDERIC TIMOTHY SWEENEY wills to Red Anderson the right of way in the Senior Class and the hope that enjoyment will flood his “Poor” heart. MARY ELLEN HENRY bequeaths her pep, vim, vigor and sun- shine to Helen Poor whose theme song should be, “Is my face red, Red. WILBERT OTIS BRIGGS leaves his ability to manufacture red hot scandal, and the office of “wise guy” to Samuel Goldstein who will study this provision for six months before getting the curt hint. LAWRENCE “BOTTLES” McCARTHY leaves a gold watch to the first member in the Junior Class who can tie his record of tardiness and the days absent during the coming year. GENEVIEVE MOGAVERO and CHARLES BURNS pass on the title of “Mr. and Mrs. to Frances Kelley and Fred Severence to keep in trust and fidelity. ARTHUR FLATCHBART bequeaths his nonchalant instincts and attractive style to Robert Dickinson with confidence. ELEANOR HAYES. RICHARDSON MANOOGIAN. EDITH HILLMAN. HENRY HALLINAN, JOHN KANE, KATHERINE L1TCHMAN and RAY McDONALD leave favorable impressions to the Juniors and the latter his name carved artistically on every school desk. DORIS RUSSELL bequeaths her ability and educated mind to Barbara Tumelty, one petite lady of charm, who will become famous if she can retain both her poise and the aforesaid provision. JOHN O’SHEA leaves one dozen recording records of himself singing golden tenor melodies to the P. H. S. Glee Club official library and one record entitled, “Memories” to Marion Gourley. ARTHUR ROY GOURLEY and WILLIAM CRONIN leave jointly the missing eraser’s and many private school (Exclusive For Girls) calling cards to any fair giglos. GEORGE MANOLAKIS, BARBARA BATCHELDER and ALTHEA DEMPSEY bequeath jointly their ability in art to three members of the Junior Class, one of whom is to be Mark Kelley, Jr. to cherish and hold during their Senior year. And so in conclusion, I’ll break a bottle of the legal 3.2 beer over the bow of our class Ship of State, sing the school song, the N-C 4 Trio, the Class theme songs, “Okay-America For California, Here We Come!” and remind my classmates of the difference between “Night and Day” and respectfully sign this document, stamping same with gum, red ink, a sprinkle of the lunch counter’s famed chop suey and tomato juice on this thirteenth day of June in the Year of Our Lord, one thousand, nine hundred and thirty-three.

BASEBALL SQUAD, 1933 TRACK TEAM, 1933 GIRLS’ VARSITY BASKETBALL GIRLS’ ATHLETICS The year 1932-33 will be remembered by the girls of ’33 as the most interesting, athletically speaking, of our high school course. Basketball, baseball, field hockey and tennis, all received their share of attention; and in all sports the girls enjoyed many pleasant after- noons under the direction of Coach Helen Riley. Basketball, of course, received the major portion of our time and attention; and if you care to peruse the record of our accomplishments in the interscholastic ranks of the year ’32-’33 you will find an envi- able list of triumphs recorded to the credit of the girls’ varsity. Un- defeated through the season, our team established a record that is one of which we may well feel proud. Captain Mary Eagan, Eleanor Hayes, Ethel Weinstein, Rose Maron and Julia Paolucci were the girls of ’33 to hold aloft our banner and individually and as a team they performed in such a manner as to i-eflect credit upon them- selves and upon their coach. One of the outstanding events of the year we feel we must mention: our second annual Play Day held at Danvers on June 4. With the girls of Beverly, Danvers and Salem we held forth, and on this occas- ion we feel that in the various features in which our girls participated they made a very substantial contribution to the success of the after- noon. To the future classes of Peabody High School we wish continued success in the field of girls’ athletics.
