“The smiles that win, the tints that glow” HELEN STOCK DAVIS “Freckles” Helen is the serious young lady with the sunny disposition and friendly character, very studious and always willing to lend a helping hand. Helen has taken a commercial course, and prefers to deal with clerical work. She always seems to know what is asked of her, and generously gives out excellent information. Helen enjoys dancing immensely. She also likes sports, especially swim¬ ming, basketball, football and tennis. She is cer¬ tainly a grand sport, and enters into all activities. We are wishing Helen the success which is in¬ evitable with her charming personality. “No nightingale did ever chant more wel¬ come notes.” ALMA FLORENCE DAGHIR “Al” Alma Daghir, known to us all as just “Al”, is that fun-loving boisterous, energetic, daring girl whom we all love. “Al” is always there when you need her with her ready smile and cheerful word. Her beautiful sieging voice has won recognition not only in school but in outside circles as well. “Al” has also that remarkable combination—at¬ tractiveness and brains. Ten years from now when we visit her we’il find her a very prosperous business executive. Good luck, good health and best wishes to a steady, determined little worker. “Officious, innocent, sincere, of every friend¬ less name the friend.” EVELYN DUPERE “Ev” Quiet and shy is Evely.., doing things to help everyone, yet seeking no credit for doing them. Evelyn is very neat and would certainly make a perfect housekeeper or a Home Arts director. Her ambition is to become a governess in a wealthy home. We think there are opportunities in this field, and that she will succeed in attaining her goal. She has been our librarian for two years and has put much effort into making our library a better source of information. You have our best wishes, Evelyn, for continued success and happiness. “I am merry when I hear sweet music.” ANTONE SOUZA FENO “Tony” “Tony” has an excellent personality. His ability to fit in at all occasions has made him a popular classmate. Music has always been his favorite pastime and he is usually found strumming chords in the school orchestra or for group entertain¬ ment. His interpretation of music gives him a smooth dancing style. He has participated in many of our social activities and has had four successful years at high school. Having studied a commercial course to advantage, he is sure to be a success, for his smile and social attitude are sure to carry him far.

“Waste not time in words.” GEORGE ALOYSIUS CHASE “Chasie” “Chasie” is one of the quietest members of the class because his presence in the class is hardly noticed. Nevertheless he always gives a good ac¬ count of himself when called upon. He has tried to hide himself under the proverbial bushel but we know he is capable and efficient in every thing that he does. “Chasie” is a gentleman who knows his place, is courteous to all, and can be relied upon. He seems to enjoy peace and quiet. Per¬ haps he will become a capable businessman or an investigator of some sort. In whatever field he may select we wish him much success. “Her voice was ever soft, gentle and sweet.” JOANNE BARBARA CHACE “Jo” Joanne is one of our tall, dark-haired, dark-eyed seniors, hailing from Rhode Island, bringing with her a vast amount of character and personality. She has become one of our best shorthand writers, and she should go far in the secretarial field. We have grown to like her for her frankness and straight-to-the-point attitude. We wish her much luck in the vocation she chooses, and we are sure that she will be very successful. ‘‘Wisdom of many and wit of one.” AARON GURNARD CUMMINGS “Spike” Aaron is one of the wittiest members of the class. Although not active in athletics, he has a yearning for the outdoors. His favorite sports are hu.iting and fishing, and in the past years has done some taxidermy. Aaron is quite a musician, and plays the Spanish guitar in the swing orches¬ tra called the Syncopators. Boating and swim¬ ming are two of his hobbies in which he takes great delight. He is a very good poster artist, and has been kept busy since he entered high school with all poster assignments. We have appreciated your pleasant ways, Aaron, and we are sure that you will get ahead in this world. To the stars with music! “Without music life is a mistake.” ANNA RITA CURT “Limpy” Ann is one of the talkative young ladies of the Senior Class, nicknamed “Limpy.” She has gained popularity because of her willingness to cooperate, and her cheerful winning smile. She is the nimble ooteJ songstiess who hums gaily while hastening about helping teachers and classmates. Ann has been a Library Associate for two years and al¬ though she is undecided as to her future career, we wish the best of luck to our happy songbird.

“A kind friend; no wisdom is greater.” CONSTANCE EVA GOFF “Connie” “Connie” is what anyone might call a real friend. She has a sunny disposition, and a fine personality. We can always depend on Connie to lend a helping hand where needed and she is well- noted for this particular thing. She has chosen the nursing field and is doing much to try to head straight for that goal. “Connie” is very much in¬ terested in the activities of the school, particular¬ ly the Glee Club. She has given much support to the basketball, baseball, and football teams. We wish success to this true friend and classmate. “A fair exterior is a silent recommendation.” ALYCE CAROLYN GRAY “Tizzy” Alyce is one of our most popular girls, sweet, yet possessing an exuberant personality.

She has also been a member of the Girls’ Basketball Squad for two years. In ad¬ dition she has served efficiently as office clerk for two years, and contributed much to the success of the school.

Loads of luck, Alyce! “As good-matured a soul as e’er trod on shoe of leather.” LEOLA HARRIET GRAY “Lee” Lee, as she is often called, is one of our most promising commercial students. Ever ready with that bright smile of he:s, she is to her friends, like the sun shining through a dark cloud. One knows that she can be depended upon for any task, and that she will grant any favor which is asked of her. Fair-haired Lee plans to become a secretary un¬ less other ideas change her present plans, and we know that she will be most efficient and reliable. Best wishes for the future, Lee. “He seems so near, and yet so far.” RUSSELL WARREN HATHAWAY “Russ” “Russ” is a blond young man who is the younger brother of the Spectator’s publisher. In his posi¬ tion he is quite an authority on the “Whys” and “Hows” of printing a newspaper. The treasurer of the Student Council for two years and a mem¬ ber for three, he is well liked by his classmates. “Russ” is usually quiet except in one of his more boisterous moods. His two favorite sports are hunting and fishing and in their respective sea¬ sons we often see him with Aaron and Jimmy, off to see what they can bag. Russell is also the proud owner of a sailboat and canoe a id on sum¬ mer nights the Riverside residents often see him paddling along the Taunton but definitely not alone. Good luck to you “Russ”! Keep awake and keep smiling!
