RENE AIME CROTEAU 15 Broadway Street General Course After four years spent with Rene we have come to know just what a strong, quiet student he is. In place of athletics he dedicated his time to the pursuit of learn- ing.. We have ample testimony that his method proved efficacious. We know that his future will be happy, for he is a youth who will be faithful to the ideals of his school life and will never forswear them. CHARLES LYMAN CURTIS 77 Kirby Avenue, Whalom Technical Course “Curt’’ the boy from Whalom has been one of the most versatile members of our class. Aside from being captain of Basketball, a mainstay on the gridiron and a snappy fielder on the Baseball team he has found time to do his studying as well. He spends his spare time mak- ing up riddles and jokes with which to ‘“‘panic’’ his friends. We are sure that he will be successful in any branch of work in which he decides to labor, and that he will attain a goal worth striving for. Best of luck, Charlie. DOROTHY IRENE DAUPHINAIS 105 Appleton Circle General Course “Dot”’ is one of our companions from West Fitch- burg. She has made many friends and her spirit of fun has endeared her to all. She has done her work well and we believe that she will ever be loyal to the ideals of St. Bernard’s. Your class unites in wishing you good luck, Dorothy. ANGELA MARIE DEL BEATO 17 Third Street Classical Course There is hardly a better known member in the class than Angela. Her carefree, jovial countenance ever beamed upon us. Although a student in every sense of the word, she could always be counted on to be present when a good time was at hand. She is still undecided as to her future plans, but we feel sure that those from whom she is seeking a position will be won by her smiling countenance. Au revoir and not Adieu, Angela. 16

EDMUND WILLIAM CARROLL 21 Elizabeth Street Classical Course Eddie’s many likeable characteristics have made him one of the most popular boys in the Senior Class. Al- though he is a good scholar he finds time for football, basketball, and skating which seem to be his favorites in the field of sports. Eddie is to continue his studies at college and if his career is a repetition of his high school days, he is assured of a mark that will put him in the honor class. Best of luck, Eddie. ELLEN WINIFRED CARROLL 21 Elizabeth Street General Course Her cheery word and merry laughter combined with a modulated seriousness made Ellen stand out in any group. Ever a loyal supporter of all school activities, sh e always lent a willing and helping hand when needed. As she plans to be a nurse we are sure that the patients will recover soon under the enervating influence of her cheerfulness. Best of luck, Ellen. CHARLES JAMES CASASSA 176 Myrtle Avenue Our Walking Dictionary! Charlie knows the Diction- ary from cover to cover and has made good use of his knowledge. His energy and capability stood out ad- mirably in his splendid work as Assistant Manager of the Year Book. He isa genial, friendly fellow and always ready for a good time. We do not know his plans for the future, but we are confident that he will be success- ful in whatever he attempts. The entire class joins in wishing you a long and prosperous life, Charlie. General Course FRANCES MARIE COMISKEY 124 Middle Street, Leominster General Course Frances, who has come to us every day from Leomin- ster is outstanding for her generosity and is always will- ing to lend a helping hand.

WILLIAM BERNARD DEMPSEY 14 Middle Street Classical Course Essentially a gentleman, this quality has gained for William many friendships to cherish in the future. Not the least but the greatest is in his comradeship with John, and it would be a most unusual occurrence to see the one without the other. A conscientious student William nevertheless was an ardent and loyal supporter of school athletics and socials. Cheerfulness, perseverance and loy- alty are his in the happiest possible degree, and we feel that in the distant future he will be the same William whom we liked so well at St. Bernard’s. JOHN MICHAEL DONLAN 17 Thomas Street Classical Course John, who boasts that he has four years of Latin behind him, is to be the M.D. of the Class of '35. He has been undoubtedly a good scholar of which the Honor Roll was a star witness. His willingness for work and his ready sense of humor have gained for him many friends. We hope he will continue to keep up the good work, for we know if there is a place for a real man in the world John cannot fail to attain it. MARY IRENE DOWER 18 Grafton Stret, Leominster Commercial Course “If you would reap praise you must sow the seeds,— gentle words and useful deeds.’’ We cannot say the exact amount of praise which Mary has won, but we are not at all hesitant about saying that she has sown the seeds ever since she stepped inside the portals of our high school. Her frank and open manner won us from the start, and seemed to reve al, time and time again, some new shade of merit in her character. Good luck, Mary, and keep up the good work. EVERETT JOSEPH DUPUIS 155 Fifth Street, Leominster Technical Course Here is a jovial, kind, and thorough gentleman whose outstanding scholastic attainments have brought him to the forefront. His unassuming dignity captivated us, and his true friendliness and loyalty from the beginning to end of high school days reminded us of the foundations of ancient Rome—deep and vast; but unlike Rome, in that his deep sincerity will never allow his friendships made at St. Bernard’s to crumble in ruins. Best of luck, Everett, and plenty of it. 17
