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.”

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.

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.
