“In the still air, the music lies unheard.” ALBERT DOUBLEDAY BOTELHO Buckley” Buckley” is one of the most talented musicians of the class. His activity in the school orchestra and other organizations has always been commend¬ able. Everyone admires his good nature and warm friendliness. He always welcomes his many friends with a frank smile and a cheery how-do-you-do. An extensive paper route has kept Buckley from actual participation in school sports, but he has always enjoyed the physical education classes. He excells in commercial subjects, and a successful career along this line seems ensured. We’ll be missing you, Buck! Best wishes for success and happiness. “Take short views, hope for the best, and trust in God.” RAYMOND LOUIS BOULEY Ray” Although Ray” is a quiet member of our class, his amicable character has won the admiration of all his classmates. Like all other boys, Ray enjoys good times and schoolboy sports, although he has never played any varsity sport. His ability along commercial lines is easily seen. Although Ray usually knows all the answers, he has always been rather timid about volunteering them. He has no definite plans for the future, but we are sure Ray will became a success upon whatever career he em¬ barks. “Serious occupation is labor that has refer¬ ence to some want.” LILLIAN BRANCO Lil” Here is one of many who quietly slipped into Somerset High four years ago. Yes, she is quiet, but nevertheless, she is not without a merry and pleasing disposition. Although Lil is quiet, she makes up for it, for she is one of the girls who type all of the slams” which appear in the school paper. If at anytime you happened to see Lillian walking leisurely around the corridors, just remem¬ ber she was doing it for the S. H. S. News. Lil has always managed to serve on poster committees and many of her pleasing posters have induced students to attend the colorful senior events. If perseverance means a thing, and we know it does, Lil will succeed in the field of accountancy.
