Halloran Row 3 Budak, Koom 214 The pupils of 214 wish to thank Mr. Bortnick for his help and guidance in their Senior year. We would also like to thank all the printing teachers for teaching us the fine art of printing. In deep sincerity we would like to remember Mr. David Mclver, who passed away in our sophomore year, for his. inspira- tion in helping us through our hardest year. Among the boys of our room many have con- tributed their share in sports. Donald Duggan, the sensational quarterback who unfortunately broke his collar bone, showed the spirit of Memorial. Americo DiRamio also showed his spirit for Memorial after displacing his back, and the fine effort of Edward Gaughan. in participating in football and basketball. Knowing that we will probably be the last class as Roxbury Memorial we feel assured of our success in the future, from the teaching we received from our teachers and friends of the Bausemer, Joel James Canavan, E. Paul T. Cain, Bornstein, Jeremiah Geary, school who employed us and helped round out our printing education. Again we wish to thank Mr. Bortnick for all the help and advice he gave us during our three years in school.

Room 213 The seniors of room 213, directed by Mr. Brown, think that they belong to the best home room of the best graduating class in the history of the school. The class boasts two Davis award winners: John Willis and Ronald Petrillo. In sports it is represented by Edward Summers, captain of hockey and a member of the team for three years, and David Mclver. on the hockey team for two years. Charles O'Leary distinguished himself at halfback on the football team. Albert Rue is co-captain of the basketball team and captain of the tennis team, having played on both teams for three years. We also nave Robert Ready, voted handsomest in the class. We wish to express our thanks to Mr. Brown for his interest and his help, and also to all the men who have given us three fine years of instructi on in print- ing. Speaking not merely as printers, but as members of the school, our final wish is that Memorial may live forever. On Ben Franklin’s birthday we had the privilege of having one of our boys, John Willis, chosen to make a speech in front of City Hall.

Although we can’t brag about 10 or 15 boys making the Honor Roll, one can’t tell what will happen as the year progresses. What we can brag about is the athletic ability because we are by no means lagging in this department. We have “Butch” Hullum, captain-elect of the track team and star of the cross-country team. John Grooms of our glorious basketball team and Don Jenkins from our valiant and high spirited football team. The most exciting moments occurring in this sometimes madcap homeroom are 2 or 3 minutes after the bell rings for homeroom check-up. The whole class scampers back to the room so as not to take down that certain piece of paper to the boys’ office before leaving. Lest we forget, the financial matters are left to Steven H. “Lab assistant’ Lerner and he seems to be doing a fine job.
