1937 EDWARD F. SEARLES HIGH SCHOOL LOUISE MARY CARMEN CHAMPY Perfect coolness and selfpossessionf' Just as we have a Class Einstein and a Class Shark, so we have a Class Shorthand Wizard. Because of this and because of your sincerity and earnestness, we expect you to become one of two things, Louise: an able instructor of shorthand or senior stenographer to a business magnate. WILLIAM CHEPULIS, JR. Editor in chief Year Book Orchestra 1, 2, 3, 4 Ivy Orator - Band 4 Class Play ' Traffic Squad 4 Blue and White Stai I came, Isawg I conquered. Chippie s efficiency is well exemplified by the posi- tions of trust he has held throughout high school. These extra-curricular activities were not indulged in to the ex- tenlt that they superceded his school work, for Chippie has always been one of our most brilliant lights. On your toes, M. I. T. Here comes Chippie! OLGA ELIZABETH CHWACKY Class Day Committee Year Book Committee Senior Play Basketball Manager 4 With hair of gold like the mornin g sim We know that someday she'll be toon. When we think of Ol' a we immediately recall three ' 9 '-' incidents in her high school life-. First, her marvelous portrayal of Hulda in our class play, second, her un- tiring eHorts on behalf of the girls' basketball team, and third, her constaint appearance with a certain bright sen- ior boy. Olga's beautiful hair, calm manner, and immac- uiate appearance will be fondly remembered by the class o 1937. RONALD CLAMP Ain air-minded lad was he. This diminutive young man professes by speech and ac- tions that the only way to learn is to ask questions. Ron- nie also has an inclination to take things apart to see what makes them tick. We guess that these two traits were instrumental in making Ronnie the skilled model airplane builder that he is. Happy landing, Ronnie, in the flight of life. ETHEL COOKSON Modest and simple and sweet. One cannot resist a second glance at dainty, demure Cookie She is by far one of our sweetest girls, with her demure shyness and blonde attractiveness. Her en- gaging smile reflects a radiant personality and if she con- tinues to be as retiring and unobtrusive, we know Lady Luck will smile favorably on her in the future. 19 --fs '59 -.iw sw 9' Y 'U

' This rosy-cheeked lass from one of the remote sections of town is a live wire if ever there was one She is chuck full of good spirits and joie de Vivre. One look at Ruthie will convince you that she has the vivacity to get by in the future. ROBERT F. BRYANT Traffic Squad 4 Hail the conquering hero comes. Collegiate shirts, snappy bow ties, immaculate clothes are synonymous of Bob. Truly, he could justifiably wear on his back the placard What the well-dressed man will wear. Not only is Bob considered a regular among the fellows, but he is the B M. lBi,q Moment! of many a lass- ie. We are certain, though that Bob will be more than a passing moment of fancy in his later life. SUSIE SIBLEY CAMPBELL As sunny as the sky above us. Sue is one of our good-natured blondes who has a par- ticularly lovely smile which she bestows most liberally on her classmates. She is more on the quiet side in school, but we remember how she exerted unlimited energy at our football games. Your efforts will not fro unrewarded, Sue! GLAIJYS MARIE CARTER Year Book Staii' ' 'Dem u re and dignified is she , But full offtm as she can be. ' One of our blonde sirens is Gladys, the attractive and stylish member of the Hexvson-Carter team. Because of this outside interest, Gladys has not given us as much time as we should have liked, but her work on the year book committee redeems her in our sight. So long, lladys! MA'l'lLlJA S. CEBULA Little saidg much accomplished. Tillie's sober mien and shy mannerisms have won her the title of the quietest girl. VVe know she is clever, sin- cere, and obligingr-but very modest about her honors in shorthand. May your years be crowned with success, Tillie! 18

Some people pan be good company and loads of fun Without having a gift of gab. Claire, in her rather quiet way, is just such a person. Her very cordial greeting ev- ery morning is ample significance of her friendliness. May the world greet you just as cordially, Claire. HUGH ANTHONY CREGG, JR. Orchestra 1, 2, 3, 4 Ay-and every inch a man. Meet Hugh, that amicable representative of the Hamp- shire Roads district. He was nicknamed Huge four years ago because of his diminutive size, and to this day he is Huge Cregg to all of us. Beating the tom-toms in the orchestra and playing baseball seem to be his favorite pastimes. A higher institution beckons Creggie for fur- ther education and with him go the best wishes of the class who created his famous nickname. EDWARD PAUL CYR Lieut. Cadets Il Basketball 3 Capt. Cadets 4 Traffic Squad 3, 4 Football 3, 4 Life's ton shorljbr one of us to rrorry. Dollars to doughnuts, no one of us will clutch his parclx- ment so proudly as will Eddie on Graduation Day. It was a break for the class of 1937 to have Eddie, not only for his genuine friendship, but for his value in athletics as well. Just imagine our football team without its burly guard-in fact, just imagine M. H. S. without Eddies spontaneous grin. Continue to face life with a smile, Ed. SALVATORE DILAVORE Track 2, 3 Traffic Squad Librarian, Orchestra 1, 2, 3, 4 Senior Play Band 4 .-l little nonsense non' and then Is relished by the wisest men. Sal, the boy with the poetic name and musical inclina- tions is unanimously elected the most consistent cut-up in any class. Salyie is almost methodically invited to take a back seat as he creates the usual disturbance in French class. However, in doing so, Sal does not burn up the cin- der path with the alacrity which he employs on the track, where he is a human Yankee Clipper. We hope your status in life will be achieved with similar speed, Sal. IRENE VALENCIA DODA Basketball -1 Deser1'ing ofthe name Qfpal. Coming to us in our Senior year, Irene started off with a bang by being an ardent football fan, a valuable basket- ball player and a general good sport. She has continued to gain friends all year and we acclaim Dodie as a great classmate. We hope your attainments after graduation will be acquired as easily as your friends, Irene. 20
