“Only a baby small, but how dear to us.” IRENE MICHAELINE WAWRIW “Rena” One of the reasons for the success of the cafe¬ teria has been the blond blue-eyed and efficient Irene, our cashier. Not satisfied with participat¬ ing in many school activities Irene has made an enviable record in the classrooms, especially the commercial classes, where her alertness of mind has earned the mark of excellence. Her mis¬ chievous smile and good humor has drawn many friends. During her four years here she has par¬ ticipated in the chorus, the Student Council, and has been an active member of the Girls’ Glee Club. Her jovial personality should carry her far in her chosen vocation, the secretarial field, and her classmates send showers of best wishes to speed her on her way. “Born for success he seemed.” JAMES HOWARD WORTON “Jimmy” “Jimmy” is the big boy of the class. He stands six feet one inch tall and has sandy red hair. He played football for two years at guard and op¬ posing teams found it difficult to get through him. He earned his letter twice in basketball. Jimmy recently acquired his driving license and goes hunting and fishing now without walking or riding his bike. Favoring outdoor work, it is rumored that he would like the Coast Guard or the Forestry Service. He has been a member of the Student Council for four years so it is evident that his classmates like him and respect his judg¬ ment. Keep plugging Jimmy, we know you’ll get there.

r “Patience is a remedy for every sorrow.” PATIENCE EVELYN SHERMAN “Pat” Pat is a quiet, unassuming girl who, during her four years at Somerset High School, has taken great interest in Household Arts. This seems rather prophetic for it is rumored that wedding bells may play an important part in her life. At any rate, she has become accomplished in the gentle art of homemaking and should be success¬ ful in this work. However, she has made plans to become a telephone operator, and the loss will be felt in the field of Domestic Science. Pat has been conscientious in her work and cooperative with her teachers while at Somerset High School. Happiness to you, Pat. Maybe we’ll be hearing you say, “Number, please,” in the near future. “Whatsoever he doeth will prosper.” EDGAR GEORGE TRUDEAU “Eddie” “Eddie” is one of the popular members of the class whose good nature and willingness to help will carry him far. During the past year he has been the school chaffeur in all emergency calls, and has ear ned a high office rating for school ser¬ vice. A lover of athletics, he is usually found where there may be some type of sport in action. He was manager of our basketball team in his senior year. Having earned a fine reputation by his sincerity and good-natured manners, we are quite sure he will become a success upon whatever career he embarks. “Sing away sorrow, cast away care.” IRENE VIERRA VELOZO “Rena” Irene is one of our vigorous and vivacious girls. Her good-naturedness has won her many friends during her four years hei ' e. She has followed a commercial and general course, and her neat ap¬ pearance has been greatly characterized by her love of sewing. Irene has been a member of the chorus for four years and, since its organization has participated in the Girls’ Glee Club. She has chosen the role of a beauty parlor operator and her classmates send her on with rivers of best wishes. “Ease of heart her every look convey’d.” ELSIE RACHEL WALSH “Bright Eyes” Elsie, one of our friendliest seniors, plans to fol¬ low the secretarial field. Always ready with a sunny smile, she is an ideal trouble chaser, and her nickname “Bright Eyes”, seems very appro¬ priately placed. Elsie likes exciting games in¬ cluding football and basketball, and likes dancing immensely. She has been a Library Associate foi the past two years. We hope she will be success¬ ful in her chosen career, but we know she will have little difficulty with such a bright personal¬ ity. Best of luck to you, Elsie.
