“Good humor is the health of the soul.” DOROTHY BROWN “Dot” Dorothy is that member of our class who always takes life easy, yet comes out in front. She came from the South School, where she had been a promi¬ nent member of her class. “Dot” has always offered a willing hand whenever possible during her four years in Somerset High School. She is a member of the Commercial Club, having followed the commercial curriculum. During the past year, she has been an office clerk. Although she is un¬ certain what she will do next year, whatever her choice, we know that she will not disappoint us in our hopes concerning her future. “My heart is like a singing bird.” MARGARET BUTTERWORTH “Peggy”, “Peg” or “Margot” “Peggy”, that popular young Miss, began her studies here at S. H. S. in her Senior year. With her pleasing smile, as well as her captivating voice, she captured the admiration of her classmates im¬ mediately. “Peggy” became a member of the Dramatic Club, and the Girls’ Glee Club, and in the latter part of the year was named Associate Editor of the Yearbook. Her interests are so diversified as to include swing music, dancing, and of a more serious nature, oratory. It is in this field of oratori¬ cal work that “Peggy” will continue her studies. With such skill as she already possesses, we have no doubt of her success in later years. “Uncle Sam, you can count on me.” RAUL CAMARA, JR. “Rollie” “Rollie”, in his freshman year at high school was often seen but never heard. He has been an active member of the football team and has always given fine cooperation to Coach Spokesfield. Recently he has joined the Dramatic Club and being the George Raft type he is slated for an important part on Dramatic night. “Rollie” is usually seen at most of the socials where he always has a good time. He has been a worthy member of our school and is well known for his politeness. At present, Raul is interested in the Marines. Best wishes to you, Raul, a: d we hope that some day it will be Major General Camara. We are safe with men like you.

“Her voice was ever soft, gentle, and low.” IRENE A. BOUTIN Irene, a happy little lass, came to us from the Village School. She is a dependable person, always willing to lend a hand to anyone in need of help. Because of the pleasing mannerisms which she dis¬ plays, she has acquired a host of friends. She is a member of the Commercial Club and is a star typist. In the near future, Irene hopes to take a Civil Service Examination, wishing to give all her effort in helping to make America free. Good luck to you, Irene. “The secret of success is constancy of purpose ” EVERETT BAKER BRADLEY “Brad” came from the Pottersville School, and was one of the athletic members of the class. He won letters in baseball in his Sophomore, Junior and Senior years. “Brad” received a letter in basketball in his third year and was captain of the team as a Senior. He also received two letters in football. He was treasurer of his class in his Fresh¬ man and Sophomore years, president in his Junior year, and treasurer of the Student Association in his Senior year. “Brad” was a charter member of the Dramatic Club and president of that club in his Senior year. Everett followed the cohege course throughout his four years and is entering the en¬ gineering field. “The way of Transgressors is hard.” HERBERT HAROLD BRIDGE “Hector” or “Foo” “Hector’s” pleasant manner and amicable charac¬ ter have won the admiration of all his classmates. He played three years of varsity football, always plugging for the team. He also won fame as one of the builders of the prize-winning float during the Sesquicentennial. We like to think of him as an authority on the processes of woodworking and lathe operation. His recent feminine interest has been a pleasant surprise as he seemed rather shy at the beginning of his high school career. One of his distinctions was that of being an official chauffeur on the school office staff. We are certain that Uncle Sam is awaiting him for the vital war industries. Good luck to you, “Foo.”
