Manuel Ralph Amaral Mannie” It is good to begin well, but better to end well.” When Mannie came to us from St. Michael’s School, Fall River, he brought his cheerful person¬ ality and happy-go-lucky manner with him. All through high school, his classmates have gloried in his charming disposition. Mannie was an active mem¬ ber of the Boys’ Glee Club for three years. He has successfully completed the Commercial Course, and though the field of accountancy appeals to him, he will look to the Naval Air Corps for his immediate future. We feel that success for Mannie will be spelled with a capital “S”. William Benson Armstrong Bill” He was more than common tall” We first became aware of Bill’s existence when he entered Somerset High as a Freshman. Since then, he has made himself popular with the Senior class because of his unfailing good humor and friendly disposition. Always willing to lend a help¬ ing hand, Bill’s name is usually found on a commit¬ tee which requires cooperation and hard work. His main topic of conversation is enlistment in the United States Navy. This is indeed the Navy’s gain and Somerset High’s loss. So long, Bill, and may good luck and happiness be your life-long friends. Doris Irene Baker Dot” The hand that follows intellect can achieve.” Her scholastic ability has tabbed Dot “the brain’’ of our class, for her name rarely fails to appear on the Honor Roll. Dot’s quiet humor and determined ability have made her a vital part of our class. Hav¬ ing elected the College Course, Latin and French present no problem for our Dot. An ardent support¬ er of the Science Club, she has played a prominent role in the development of this organization. Dot is: very gifted in the use of her own language and ' wishes to further develop this talent. Somerset is: truly proud as she gives to the world this brilliant; scholar and fascinating conversationalist.

William Henry Barrar Bill” Smooth runs the water where the brook is deep.” Bill, the tall friendly boy of our class, came to us from Fitchburg, Mass, in his senior year. He is the possessor of a jovial and pleasing personality which has made him very popular with all the stu¬ dents at Somerset High. Bill’s interests center around the school’s extra-curricular activities. He was al¬ ways present at the basketball games, a loyal sup¬ porter of his school team. Dancing is Bill’s favorite pastime and (as any Senior girl will attest) Fitch¬ burg lost a smooth dancer when he left to take up residence in Somerset. Although his plans for the future are indefinite, Bill does aspire for an M. D. in the future. We know success is just around the corner. More power to you, Bill! Ethel Allinson Bell Et” Ding” To the willing mind, nothing is imp ossible.” Ding Bell is one of the most outstanding mem¬ bers of our class. An incomparable sense of humor, an entertaining gayety and a capacity for true friendship have endeared her to ’44. A member of the Dramatic Club and an active participant in the Girls’ Glee Club, Ethel has played a prominent part in extra-curricular activities. Et is now classified in the category of experienced travelers, for last summer she aroused a tinge of envy in all of us by nonchalantly “up and leaving” for sunny California. She has followed the college course for four years, and has proven her ability in the field of journalism by being appointed Associate Editor of the year¬ book. Interested in English and languages, Et in¬ tends to further her education at a higher institu¬ tion of learning. The benign good will of friends and classmates are with you, Et. Frank Benevides Men of few words are the best men.” Although Frank does little talking his cheerful¬ ness and ready smile are unsurpassed. As a member of the Clerical Course, he is well liked by both teachers and classmates. His ambition lies in the field of chemistry, and Frank is taking an extension course in this subject at the Bradford Durfee Tex¬ tile School. Chemistry was a well chosen field, Frank, for we feel that your willingness and per¬ severance will send you on to great heights in this direction.
