Norman Lynch Norm Fine manners are the mantle of fair minds.” Norman Lynch, that popular young man with a ready wit for any occasion, came to us from Pot- tersville school, from which he graduated prior to joining the Navy. He came back to Somerset High early this fall. His future plans indicate a career in automobile inspection, where we know he will do well. He plans to begin this work in September, and we know he will make good. Augustine Motta Gus “Wit is the flower of imagination.” Gus, another of ou r vets, joined our class in Sep¬ tember. He was in the class of ' 44, but left in his Junior year to join the Navy. He went in as a pharmi- cists ' mate, then after three years, Uncle Sam de¬ cided Gus had done enough, and sent him home for good. Gus plans to take a Clinical Course in Boston when he receives his diploma in June. We ' re all sure he ' ll be successful. Donald Harry Cox Don “Laugh and the world, laughs with you.” When Donald joined the army on October 4, 1946, he was missed immediately, for Don is one of those cheerful persons who always bring a smile to the people around him. He was a chemistry enthusiast and could always be found in the lab trying some new experiment. Donald began his army career at Fort Jackson, South Carolina, with the infantry, and likes his work as a cook very much. With the en¬ thusiasm and ambition with which he tackles jobs we are sure that Donald will be successful in life.

CM eierans Ernest Gagnon Tiny , Ernie “’Tis good nature that wins the heart Although Ernie did not begin his high school years with the Class of ' 47, his ready humor and quick wit made him a most welcome and popular addition in the year of ' 46. Ernie left school in his sophomore year to join the navy and returned in his senior year to complete his studies. In the near future he hopes to become affiliated with the State Police. If a will makes a way, we know Ernie will be a great success in this or any field. Richard J. Dyer Dick “Good nature is worth more than honor to the person who possesses it.” After five years of absence, Dick returned to Somerset High to continue his high school educa¬ tion. During the time he was away, he served in Uncle Sam ' s navy, and we know he did his job well. He is quiet and efficient, always getting his work done. He is much interested in sports and was very active on the Vets basketball team last winter and on their baseball team this summer. Though you have no immediate plans for the future, Dick, we wish you lots of success in the field of your choice. Edmund Ferland Eddie “Thy modesty’s a candle to thy merit.” Eddie joined our class early this fall. Prior to this, he was in the Navy. He is one of the quieter vets, but nevertheless, most of us have come to like and respect him. Eddie has revealed to us that he would like a job with the Standard Oil Company in South America. With the experience he has had in the past in this line, he will surely get to South America and be successful.
