PAULINE DUMAS Polly Hshort, cute, and peppyu Polly is one of our small cute seniors with a French temper. Her life has been brightened up considerably this year. She was voted the typical Shrewsbury High girl by the class. She is a basketball and football fan, never missing a game. We wish you success, Pol, in nursing.

She pays attention to her studies and keeps them right up to the top. Everyone envies the way she can whiz over her Spanish and always come up with the right answer. We were certainly lucky to have such a swell friend join us all the way from East Orange, New jersey, at the beginning of our junior year.

Bob 'Tis just to give applause where 'tis deserved Bob, Sl1rewsbury's star football athlete, is also one of the best sportsmen in Worcester County. His work on our football team certainly helped us gain many victories. Maybe it's his curly blond hair as well as his football laying that makes him so pleasing to the girls. Bob certainly is a good example of what perseverance can do to every promising athlete.

He has added much to our Senior Choir this year, which is a lot to be proud of. By the way, Ray, who's the senior girl that you're trying to get acquainted with? Best of luck from the Senior Class in whatever you do.

DOROTHY FOLEY Dot Tall, stately and nice Dot is one of the nicest appearing girls of our class. She has a distinctive per- sonality and a clever insight for fashion. Dot is one of the steady stand-bys in the commercial course and holds a position as secretary to some lucky lawyer in Worcester, What the Senior Class would like to know most about Dot is what did make her constantly late? We, the Senior Class, wish Dot the best of luck in the secretarial field. Basketball 1, Colonial Staff 4, Crlee Club 1, 2, 3, Class Social 1 IRENE GENDRON Lett 5' Style is the dress of thought lrene is a true sophisticate. She is at ease in any situation that confronts her. She is a leader in every sense of the word, demonstrating her ability particularly as chair- man of the write-up committee. The Yearbook owes much to Irene. I is a willing worker, with a glib wit always at her command, and man! what a personality! Many are the times we have envied her promising report card. A stunning wardrobe and a sense of true fashion and design top off all her good qualities.

There goes that peppy character known as Dot or, among certain male contingents, Hall. Dot is one of those girls who has been everywhere, a fact which explains her title of Most Popular Girl of the Senior Class. Besides being an enter- taining personality, Dot is noted for her subtle, droll wit, which has enlivened many a dull moment. It is a mystery to us how she can maintain those splendid grades and belong to the organizations that she does. Dot is planning to attend a physical educa- tion school. Best of luck with the Indian-clubs, Dot!

His knowledge of popular music is almost un- limited. Rod hasn't shown much interest in girls in school, but we understand that he is quite a killer with the ladies in Worcester. Rod is planning to enter the U.S. Marines. Good luck! We know that you will have the situation well in hand.
