“lie speaketh not and yet there lies a conver¬ sation in his eyes.” EDWARD WALTER PEASE “Eddie” “Eddie”, as he is called by most of his class¬ mates, is quiet, conscientious about his work, and very agreeable. Many times he will go out of his way to aid someone, even if it is a very small thing. He has always studied hard and stuck to any problem that he couldn’t solve right away. Edward seems to be a lover of nature and hard work for in the summer he is seen many times working in his garden and taking care of lawns. Not taking sports too seriously, he nevertheless, played Freshman baseball, and some football. He is known to be a very fast runner and would make a good trackman. “A dear and true industrious friend.” EVELYN REGO “Lynn” Evelyn is one of our more jovial, but studious girls. Her sparkling personality has acquired many fiiends for her here. Conscientiously she has done her work and has been rewarded by good grades and a reputation tor an enjoyable recita¬ tion in the elas room. The urge to travel has kept her in constant longing and we hope she will be able to fui-ill her dreams someday. Although Evelj-n has followed commercial studies during l.ei .ojr yeais here, her gieatest ambition is to be a histo.ian or a history teacher. With best wishes her classmates se..d her on her way to complete success. “A merry heart doeth good like a medicine.” HELEN LOUISE REGO “Smiles” Helen is the girl with the ever-ready smile. Her radiant personality, and jovial manner captivates the attention of all who meet her. Her liking for motion pictures, basketball games, and any med¬ ium from which entertainment can be derived, is typical of her joyful nature. We can just visu¬ alize Helen as a homemaker, with her white apron making her delicious angel-food cakes, and sew¬ ing a lovely tweed outfit, for Helen loves these home arts. We wish Heien’s happy smile will continue to bring her happiness, and with her vocation attain all that she desires to attain. “Hail the bride, when the nuptial knot is tied.” RITA ELIZABETH REZENDES “Reet” Rita is one of our ever-busy girls. Besides keep¬ ing busy at school work, she has some very in¬ teresting hobbies. This senior has not been very successful in the line of health this year, and we have missed her a great deal. We hope she has better health in the near future. Rita has desires a little different than ordinary. She hopes to be¬ come an efficient waitress and we think she will make a very good one too. We sincerely hope that she will go down the line of victory without any interruptions.

“His very foot has music in it as he comes up the stairs.” CHARLES JOSEPH McGURN “Twee” “Twat” Called “Twee” or “Twat” by everyone, probably because he is short, Charles if full of life and al¬ ways greets you with a smile. He has been a student councilor for two years and is treasurer of the class. “Twee” carries a daily paper route and for this reason hasn’t had much time to par¬ ticipate in sports, although he played freshmen baseball. He has missed only one dance during his four years in high school and is an excellent dancer. Some say because of independent manner, “Twat” does many things and gets many places that others couldn’t. He hasn’t specific plans after graduation but says he’ll oe satisfied if he turns out to be a “man.” “She is pretty to walk with and witty to talk with.” EILEEN ANGELA NOLAN Eileen, with her merry smile and her cheerful disposition, has done much for the class and school. She has been a valuable and well-loved classmate if there ever was one. Along with it all, she has attained high scholarship standing. Her school activities have included glee club, plays, dance and decoration committees, and all kinds of special assignments, including the much prized office work. Sne has been vice-president of our class for all four years; and was this year President of the Glee Club. Eileen plans to enter the teaching field next year will take her smile and efficiency away to Bridgewater Teacher’s College. Good luck to you, Eileen. We know all your pupils will appre¬ ciate your pleasant personality. “A finger in every pie.” JOAQUIM ANTUNES OLIVEIRA “Jackie” “Jackie” is a happy-go-lucky man about town. He can see great pleasure in helping others and he can always soothe one’s mood with his ever¬ lasting smile. Jackie has won many friends in his four years of high school with his pieasant personality. He has several hobbies, but most im¬ portant to him is the field of sports. He has had the privilege of being assistant manager of vari¬ ous sports that the high school has taken part in. Jackie his high ideals. He is planning for a suc¬ cessful business career as a contractor. He hopes that some day he will have the largest contracting concern in the country. Jackie has served his school well and we are anticipating a great future for the contractor of tomorrow. “Small in limbs, a giant in strength.” JOHN FRANCIS O’NEIL “Jackie” “Jackie” has been interested in athletics since entering Somerset High School. At present he is concerned with boxing, and has been successful in this sport, with the exception of a recent bout. He has never worried about his studies, but manages to get by in some fashion. With his humorous and winning personality Jackie has al¬ ways been popular among his classmates, and we are sure that he will receive his share of success.

“In quietness is my strength.” ANTONE ROCHA “Tony” Nicknamed “Tony”, Antone is rather quiet, small in stature, but is very likeable and agree¬ able. He never recites much in class, but knows what he is talking about whenever he does. “Tony” likes geometry and Latin, and is called the “Little Giant” of the Solid Geometry class. The only outside school activity he attends is athletic games. One may often see him entering the Plaza Theatre in Fall Rivr to enjoy an after¬ noon of cowboy pictures . Antone has not quite decided as to what his future will be, but once he has decided we know he is bound to make good. “He seems governed by a strain of music.” GEORGE MASON RUBADOU Bingo” George is a happy fellow and shows it wherever he goes. In his four years he has played the trumpet in the school orchestra, played two years of baseball, three years of football, and has held important parts in the school operettas. For two years George worked on a farm and milked cows early in the morning before he came to school. He says he enjoys this work and might consider being a farmer. If he is, we are sure that his classmates will buy their milk from him. Best wishes to you, George! “Little said is soon amended.” CATHERINE NATALIE RYCHWICKI Kitty” Catherine, rather a quiet girl, is very much in¬ terested in commercial work, and plans to con¬ tinue in this coui’se of study after she graduates. She is a shy, young miss, but always ready to smile and be friendly. Industriously and earnest¬ ly, she tries to do her best and we know that these qualities will be a great aid to her when she goes ovft into the business world. Best wishes for the future, Catherine. “Laughter is my shield.” JANET THERESA SEAVER “Jan” Janet is one of our most willing girls. She has proved herself worthy of being called a hard worker. Janet had to overcome great difficulties when her home was washed away in the flood, but this did not stop her, for she worked harder than ever to get her work done and in on time. We salute her for showing us how to keep up our spirits in time of distress. We feel sure that with this courage she will go far in making a place for herself in her chosen ambition—to be a secre¬ tary.
