Twenty-four META P. H. S. PPS 183 1937 ROBERT T. DOLLOFF His worth is warrant for his welcome.” OBSERVER STAFF META STAFF STRAND NIGHT SCHOOL PLAY BAND AND ORCHESTRA “Bob” is our adopted brother, having come from Haverhill this year. When one thinks of him, music is the next thing that comes to mind, for his name is in reality a synonym for that particular form of art. The xylo- phone is his specialty on which he has entertained us many times. KATHERINE DONAHUE “Better be small and shine than be great and cast a shadow.” To us the South is noted for two things: cotton and “Kay.” “Kay” came to us from way down in Dixie only a few short months ago, but has already made many friends. So true is this, that she is really one of us. That is talent. OLIVIA C. DONOVAN Blushing is the color of virtue.” WOMAN ' S CLUB SPANISH CLUB TRAFFIC SQUAD GLEE CLUB JUNIOR RED CROSS Olivia is one of our quiet girls, but we who know her better, have gained much from her sunny disposition. “Sudsie” personifies “Blessed are the meek for they shall inherit the earth.” However, she can take hard work in lumps without a murmur. In short, she thinks and does.

P. H. S. META Twenty- three JEAN F. CUSIC ' K “Modest, simple and sweet. WOMANS CLUB Jean’s most distinctive characteris- tic is quietness. Nowhere else can such a perfect lady be found. The old saying-: “The quiet shall rule,” seems to fit in here nicely, for we predict great things for Jean. She is one of our best students, and one of our nicest girls. We are sure her efforts will always meet with success. ROSINA DI CROCE A good disposition is more valuable than gold.” META STAFF WOMAN ' S CLUB CHEER LEADER Rosina has proved to be a most pop- ular classmate. She is a good student, as well as an energetic supporter of the class. She is always cheerful, thus making many of our dreary days into happy ones. We feel sure that all her excellent qualities will aid her in whatever field she chooses. LAWRENCE P. DOHERTY “The secret of success is constancy to purpose.” SCIENCE CLUB GLEE CLUB At first Lawrence appeared to be retiring but were we to be surprised! Upon knowing him better, we discov- ered balanced rations of humor, joll- ity, sportsmanship and initiative. ‘Larry” has been a real friend and de- serves the best, of which we hope he gets a generous share.

P. H. S. M ETA Twenty-five MARY E. DOOGE “A little aloof from worldly cares.” Mary was never one to seek friend- ships, but the extra effort required to win her confidence was well worth the while. Mary is the Class of ’37’s “So- phisticated Lady.” Her self-confident air and perfect grooming, rate her this coveted title. We know she will succeed in any line of endeavor she might choose. MALCOLM DOUGLAS “You find him honest, square, and straight.” A newcomer to our class, “Mai” is a welcome addition. How we all love to hear his pleasant Southern drawl! He has gained many friends during his few months with us, by his con- genial smile and quiet manner. The whole class joins in extending hearty wishes for success to you, “Mai.” MARGUERITE E. DRAGO “The joy of youth and health her eyes displayed.” META STAFF SPANISH CLUB JUNIOR RED CROSS “Margie,” the girl of petite dimen- sions, is one of the most lovable mem- bers of the class. Margie is also one of our style setters. Daintiness, ambi- tion, and ability to make friends, are only a few of her fine qualities. We all join in wishing this little comrade the best of luck.
