A, ' ELIZABETH DILAVORE lt s a friendly heart that has plenty of friends Senior Play Committee Betty, though small in stature, certainly overcame her smallness in goodness and friendliness. Betty's wonderful personality and friendly disposition won her numerous friends. Best wishes, Betty. JOYCE DOWNEY Fair to all and never mean. Basketball 3 Girls' A,A, 4 Y-Teens 2 Softball 3 Record Poll Committee 4 Say decorations, and there is Joyce, ready to pitch in and do her part. Don't let her appearance fool you, Al- though she's quiet and soft-spoken, she's also able to have a lot of fun. Best of luck in your future years, Joyce! MARGUERITE DUFFY May happiness be in her heart always Orchestra 2, 3 Blue and White Staff 4 Nominating Committee 2 Ring Committee 3 Senior Play Committee Margie is very well liked among her fellow students. We have heard much from her in the school orchestra, where she was a skilled violinist. Her friendly smile helps to explain her popularity. Best of luck, Margiel RALPFH B. DUNCAN Now you see it, now you don't Senior Play Entertainment Committees Cadet Adjutant 4 lf you ever shake hands with Doc, just watch your step or you're liable to end up with a fist full of rabbits. On second thought, better have a good grip on your shirt, or you might lose that, too. Doc's feats of prestidigi- tation have amazed us for years. His aim in life is to be a dentist, so let's hope he can make aches and pains dis- appear as easily as he does a silk handkerchief. DAVID EATON You only think you know him Dave is the type of fellow that keeps to himself a lot. One of his pet pastimes is studying, so if you have any questions about anything, just ask Dave, Actually, under that cold, hard glaze of A's beats a heart of pure gold. One of the few people to whom the title of an all right guy can honestly be given is David Eaton. 22

1952 C. WILLIAM DAY Sincere and modest, success is for him Senior Play Committee Year Book Staff Decorating Committees Bill is always ready to devote his time to any worthy cause. Besides his various outside activities, he is an ex- cellent student and a swell fellow whose presence is always welcomed, May you go far in life, Bill. CLAIRE DELATHAUWER Mischief sparkles in her eyes C'aire possesses a fun-loving, vivacious nature and a warm, friendly smile. Her sociability and genial disposi- tion are assets for future happiness in anything she may choose to undertake. Best of luck in the years to come, Claire, in your career as a teacher. JOSEPH K, DELUCA A person well worth knowing Cadet Captain 4 Color Guard 3 Whenever a helping hand is needed, joe is always avail- able. Although he seems rather quiet, his friends can tell you to watch him when he gets going. We know he will have success in the future. MARGUERITE DEVINE And the score goes up another notch Basketball 2: Capt, 3, 4 Y-Teens 2, 3, 4 Softball 2, 3. 4 Girls' A.A. 3, 4 Blue and White Staff 4 Warning to Babe Didrickson-hide the records, 'cause here comes Peggy! Peg has really amazed the athletic following of Methuen High with her sparkling perform- ances. After all, there are not many girls who captain a basketball team two years in a row. But the greatest thing in her favor is this: Despite the headlines, she is still the same, unconceited Peg. CHARLES DEWHIRST A Regular Card Ring Committee 3 Senior Play If you're going to have a party, don't forget to invite Digger. Charlie's dry humor has enlivened more than one little get-together. Chuck is usually found with ten or twelve boys around him, but girls aren't entirely out of his realm. We strongly suspect that Digger will do well in whatever Held he undertakes. Zl MW wif' i 1

1952 ROBERT EICHORN We can start now-lke's here Cadet Lieutenant 4 If Bob doesn't end up with general or admiral pre- ceding his name, it won't be because he clidn't try. A lieutenant in the cadets, Bob also indulges in Military Drill with the Naval Reserve. This excellent training, coupled with his willingness to work, should take him to the top rapidly. Good luck, Bobl DOROTHY FARRIS Quietness is a virtue Picture Committee 4 Dotty is quiet, diligent and reserved. This combination cf humor, perserverance and sophistication is evident in her personality. Always keep these traits, Dotty. VERONICA FAWCETT Life is what you make it Ring Committee 3 Veronica, with her wonderful personality and happy disposition, certainly made high school enjoyable. Where there was laughter, there was Veronica. Every cloud has a silver lining when you halk with Veronica. We wish you all the luck in your future. RALPH FEARON Blow, Gabriel, blow Senior Play Committee Band 2, 3, 4 Another one of our quiet ones, Ralph is famous around lVl HS, for his proud bearing and excellent trumpet play- ing The girls watch Ralph march by with the band and say, lVly, doesn't he look nice! but all he thinks of is his beautiful horn. We'll all expect Ralph to be at the top of the musical heap some one of these days. BARBARA FINETHY She may look quiet, but look again When you look at Barbara you may think she is quiet. but her close friends know better. She is a cheerful girl whom many of us will miss after graduation. 23 ,W S! , 'aw' wr sz-'::.'5F5 '...xeV' ? i' .12 f?.:,,'V,, f ,Q VA .y E 'gg , 'V 7 ' 7 if Mi' ,M , 53,4 -3 17 1 I 'E V ., -rm...
