Sixteen META P. H. S. C. LILLIAN BERNARD “Her smile is like a ray of sunshine.” SPANISH CLUB Here is another one of our charming classmates who have helped to make our High School days the more en- joyable. Have you ever noticed her eyes twinkling as she smiles ? Her cheei ' y disposition is sure to help her find success in whatever field she chooses to grace. JOHN F. BERRY “Common sense is the genius of our age.” You’ve not heard thus far too much about our friend and real pal, “Jack” Berry. We suspect that he has been holding some of his fire for the battle ahead. You, my dear reader, may rest assured that when the final score is told, “Jack” will be found among the leaders of men. ERNEST A. BOLCATI “Seize the present ; trust the future as little as possible.” BASEBALL SPANISH CLUB Although short in stature, “Ernie” possesses a great deal of enthusiasm in the many activities in which he takes part. During our years with him his good-natured pranks have lightened many a dull moment. Grad- uation means for us the parting of the ways, but we’ll not soon forget “Ernie’s” sunny disposition.

P. H. S. META Fifteen 1937 GEORGE BARAOS “Let no man know thy business save thy friend.” George is quiet even to the extent of sometimes being very, very quiet. But we’re told on good authority that under that reticent manner of his are qualities, golden qualities that will win for George a high position in the business world for which he is pre- paring. CHRISTUS BATALAPvIS “Men of few words are the best.” FOOTBALL On first meeting Chris, one is im- pressed by his slow but sure demeanor. Although a deliberate thinker, his judgment is always sound, not only in the classroom but on the football field. If Chris adheres to these attributes throughout life, it is inevitable that success will be his. LILLIAN A. BATEMAN “All things may seem easy to the industrious.” SPANISH CLUB May we present Lillian, one of Pea- body High School’s most talented pen- men. During the four years she has spent with us her charming smile and her perpetual ambition, together with her sunny nature, have endeared her to us all.

P. H. S. META Seventeen 181 1917 PHILIP E. BOURGEOIS AMERICO J. BOVIO JAMES F. BOWDEN “As we grow better we meet better people.” Philip is one of those students who speak only when spoken to. General and affable, he has made a host of friends in his quiet, dignified manner. Being a hard worker, he will, it is quite evident, achieve success in the business world. “Give every man thy ear, but few thy voice.” In the years that we have known Amerieo we have learned that beneath that rather retiring manner of his are qualities, sincere and deep, that augur well for his future. There is little doubt that he will accomplish much in life, winning for himself the esteem and affection of the friends of future years. “A Pal to the Very End.” “Jimmy” is one of the smiling stu- dents. He shoulders his cares and troubles with a grin and never appears to have an unhappy moment. His presence brightens all his classrooms for, possessing a friendly spirit, he is well-liked by everyone. Good luck to you, “Jim.”
