METHUEN HIGH SCHOOL 1936 LEO J. CHULADA Music has charms alone for peaceful minds. Sociable, cheerful, and pleasant describe his char- acter. Leo is our class musician and well deserves the honor too, for who has ever listened to the sil- very tones of his saxaphone and criticized his- 'play- ing? Keep striving, Leo: success is not far away. MILDRED A. COOK And looks on life with quiet eyes. Quiet and reserved, Mildred belongs to our class as one of those silent rooters which are a necessity. She is loyal to her friends: and when with them, she becomes more talkative. We wish you success, Mildred! BEULAH ALTHEA CRAIG Always smiling even tho' the heavens may fall. Come what may, Althea will meet it with calm- ness and a smile. No mere happening will ever find her down in the dumps. She will enter life un- daunted by any obstacles in her way and will calmly take her place in the world. KILBURN EDWIN CULLEY President 2 Orchestra 2, 3 A quiet conscience makes one so serene. Active in all school events, Kibby was the first person we turned to when we entered High School. He is a firm friend and does all in his power to make more friends. Don't worry, Kibby, you al- ready have a great many by your even disposition and manner. 18

H----,,, , . CHESTER BURTON BROWN A contentious man will never lack words. Chet, whose curly hair is the envy of all the girls, is always on the lookout for an argument. Everyone can recall that at some time he has dis- puted with him on some subject. Aside from this he is a good worker and a. good student. RICHARD STEARNS BUNTING Blue and White Staff 4 Year Book Committee 4 And wit that loved to play, not wound. Introducing Bunny, the class Jack Benny and champion car pusher of M.H.S.

His cheery and business-like manners have greatly con- tributed to the success of the Blue and White. Bunny'sl' mottoes are Keep smiling and Don't give up the car. IRENE MARIE BURDIN A smile will go a long, long way and a merry heart goes all the way. Irene's cheery disposition and wholesome smile would brighten the darkest day. This petite fille may seem quiet to some, but not so. She is bubbling over with pep and energy, and is interested in all class activities. GERALDINE CAROLYN BURGON Keep conscience clear, then 'never fear. Dainty, blonde, a perfect lady- that's Gerry, She has an outstanding talent with paint and pal- ette.

1936 METHUEN HIGH SCHOOL ANGE LINE SEROUN DERDERIAN Fine art is that in which the hand, the head and the heart go together. We have all at some time or other wished this girl was far away- when she wanted money for growns, for instance. She is interested in the arts: knitting, drawing and weaving- and has excelled in these to a great extent. Here's to your future happiness, Angel. FRANCES RUTH DEWHURST Let your smile be your umbrella. Here we have the feminine half of that famous Dewhurst brother-sister team. Characterized by a dazzling smile and eyes that seem to snap with joie de vivre, Ruthie has been one of the most cheery and optomistic members of our class. Happy days, Ruth! WILLIAM HARRY DEWHURST, Jr. Skill and confidence are an unconquered army. Billy, the second half of the Dewhurst team is particularly well informed on the mysteries of rub- ber. When self-assurance was being distributed, Bill was on hand for a large share. Never during our sojourn in M.H.S. have we been able to surprise him or take him unawares. ,May you always be confident, but never over-confident. RAY BOYNTON DODGE Student Council 2, 3, 4 Year Book Committee 4 President 3 Traffic Officer 4 Football 4 Ivy Orator Wisdom 'ls to the soul what health is to the body. Ray is a well rounded fellow with varied inter- ests. He not only served as Presilent of our class in estis. He not only served as President of our class in the Junior year, but as the star quarterback on our football team in the Senior year. Here is a fine example of a time when brains and sports were well mixed. We all appreciate the few words that Ray has to say and also the spirit that goes into them. Best of luck, Ray! 19 e s B . el, za ts an .,.,:,: Ee sms wm a 5? -Q te e. W sig SE? B VE W? rr e
