ROBERT FRANCIS MARBLE Small, dark, and handsome, Robert has been one of our most outstanding representatives from Cleghorn. In the early days he carried off many honors, and even up to the last held the front ranks in scholastic endeavors. Our surest prophecy is that Robert, being a man of few words, will achieve wonders, for men of that type usually do. OVILA ADOLPH MARCHAND Ovila came only in senior year, and our biggest regret is that he was not with us before. Endowed with a bland, winning dispostion, he found himself surrounded with a host of friends from the beginning. There is really nothing more that we can say to add to his worth, only repeating that to all he was a real friend and a “square-shooter.” GERALD JOSEPH MAZZOLA Jerry, smiling and gay, must have brought all the exub- erance of Leominster with him, as he breezed into our midst each day. His pranks and banter together with his even temper made him a grand pal on whom we often showered gifts such as the choice Persian feline, which he found in his desk on a bright spring day. Adios, with every best wish for the future, Jerry. BERNARD PETER McGUIRK Bunny’s friendly ways and cheerful grin have served as a Monday morning gloom chaser. Always with Walt, the two may be plotting a little mischief, or “digging up” some extra lunch. Troubles never bother Bun, and we know his happy disposition will aid his future as a busi- ness man and make him a grand success. JAMES AUSTIN McHUGH We have in Jim a fine stalwart, strapping chap, and a smiling, happy youth. This is how he came to us in 1937, and after four years of arduous work he is leaving still smiling and happy. We do not know his plans, but we are certain that if he continues along the same path, success will be his. ANDRE EDMUND MERCIER Andy is filled with irrepressible mirth. His hearty laugh- ter has continually cheered us up. Andy is a member of the track team and the school’s most accomplished drummer. As he is taking a course in automobile mechanics, it pos- sibly is the field upon which he will shower his talents. We certainly will be proud of your future accomplish- ments, Andy. 23

f oe RAYMOND JOHN LARIVIERE “Serene as a day in June” is the most apt comparison JOSEPH ROY JENNESS Roy is the personification of dignity and reserve. Dis- tingushed as an honor student, he has done much to bring honor to St. Bernard’s. His quiet but firm opinions simply stated often served as enlightment to his fellow students. The warmth enveloping his personality expands to those about him, thus making Roy a favorite graduate of 1941. RAYMOND FRANCIS KITTREDGE A true classmate, a loyal friend, Ray has earned his place in St. Bernard’s Hall of Fame. Quiet and collected, he has proved himself worthy of the name gentleman and scholar. His studious attitude and complete frankness will long live in our memories as fine traits of a real friend. May you have every happiness and success in the future, Ray. PAUL VINCENT LAMKIN Ever since Paul entered high school he has been in- creasing his stock of friends who admire him for his gen- iality, firmness, and laudable ambition. He is the class draftsman ‘“‘par excellence’? and a classmate whose ability we respect, and whose friendship we prize. we can find for Ray. His quiet, gentle manners enhanced by his keen dark eyes brought him often to the fore in spite of his determined endeavors to remain in the back- ground. His dislike of sham is an indication of character that together with his agreeable nature will put him in the future with the best. LIONEL AUGUSTIN LOZEAU An actor of paramount importance we have discovered in Lionel, for in his able portrayal of a difficult role in the .Passion Play took us by storm. Otherwise he has im- pressed us most by his ever courteous, gentlemanly be- havior. We all feel that St. Bernard’s will be long re- capturing the real successor to Lionel. ROBERT JOSEPH LYNCH Bob has proved his worth by a splendid record in the technical department. He is a fine basketball player, but never seemed to have time for the practice that is necessary for a boy on St. Bernard’s squad. To us he has always been the perfect gentleman and as we say “Bon voyage” we wish him every success. WEES) 1 OE 22

JOHN RICHARD MERCIER John is that gallant, well-mannered gentleman we have been so proud of for the last four years. Outside class, he is always bubbling with some form of fun, but in class it is strict business, with the result that his name held a constant place on the honor roll. Hence, it is not difficult to predict a splendid fuure for John. CHARLES WILLIAM MONTPLAISIR Charlie has been our most versatile senior, and one whose scholastic record is enviable. For four years he played football and basketball — winning the acclamation of being the best tackle in the county. With all his athletic engagements he never let down on the studies, and as Treasurer of the Latin Club he gave testimony of his interest in the classics. We are all certain that such re- liability and consistency will keep our Captain Charlie far ahead on the ever he has but outside alities such classmate. CHARLES GORDON MOORE There is nothing negative in’ the character of the ruffled- haired chap whom we affectionately call Charlie. He possesses a subtle wit and breezy cheerfulness that often has driven away the blues and set us in a sea of laughter. He was a member of the Latin and Debating Clubs, and from all evidences will find a happy and successful future ahead. EDWARD PATRICK MULLOY Ed, our slender agile friend from the south side, was one of our most likable seniors. We would have to search far to find a more loyal or enthusiastic rooter of all school activities. And with it all when occasion demanded, Ed was serious and determined. Best of luck to a fine school fellow and loyal student. WALTER HENRY MURRAY Our memory of joyous high school days would be in- complete without mentioning Walter’s cheerful counten- ance. His ever. ready smile and that persistently good nature of his brightened many gloomy days. We hope that in the years to come we will find him still kindly and smiling as in our old St. Bernard days. highway of life. ROBERT CAMILLE MORIN Robert is one of our heroes who does cheerfully what- to do. He is somewhat shy when in classes, he is a splendid, aggressive youth. Person- as Robert’s the world looks for and there- fore, we wish the best of luck and success to our fellow
