—— Nii Dominus, = EILEEN MARGARET AMBROSE Carefree fun-loving, Eileen, is always in the midst of an admiring group. Her happy laughter rings out, a sign of fun and happiness reigning in the circle. Possessor of the friendliest of dispositions, this pretty classmate of ours will always hold a warm spot in our hearts, and we sincerely hope she becomes a true successor of Florence Nightingale. IRENE ANITA BEDARD The friendliest pair of sparkling brown eyes, the sunniest smile imaginable just drown you in their warmth when Irene daily greets you. What we remember of Irene during our four years together is not words much spoken but the genial warmth of her friendly manner. In the years to come we will have a treasured memory in the person of our former classmate. HELEN ELIZABETH BRENNAN Our fame has spread so far and wide that the distant outpost of Ayer has entrusted to our maternal care the education and guidance of one of its fairest maids. Helen has spanned the distance every day faithfully in spite of the irregular schedudes of the B. M., but she is grateful to the “chemin de fer’ for each time saving her from sessions which the rest of us do not escape. Regretfully we say good-bye, Helen, for we have enjoyed your company. DOLORES CECILIA CAISSEY Leominster’s loss was St. Bernard’s gain when Dolores walked into our midst. She is one of our most studious classical pupils. Her ambition to be a nurse will surely be realized, if her class achievement is any indication of the future. Her patients will not lack care, while her smile will forever be her passport into bigger and better things in her chosen profession. CATHERINE ANN CALAMARE This diminutive brunette is a product of Tar Hill. In school she is noted for her guiet and shy manner, but is al- ways seen to be the life of the party outside. Her happy laugh can always be heard along the corridors. May these smiles and this laughter never be dimmed in the future, Catherine. 26

ROBERT KENNEDY SMITH Here is one of four gifted scholars, and star athletes. Bob has starred in baseball for four years besides taking part in football and basketball. He is quiet and retiring, but does not hesitate to engage in discussions at any time if necessity requires it. His distinguished work in all subjects makes him stand out as one of our best students. We give you our best wishes for happiness and success in the future, Bob. WALTER EDWARD STANTON Wally is one of our carefree, happy students. He is able to tackle serious studies and difficult work all in one stride with no diminution of his habitual cheerfulness. We hear that he is interested in flying, and if so, may your success and happiness be sky-high, Wal. PAUL JAMES TULIANO If speed were the chief requisite in life Paul would be on top of the world. He is always seen rushing from one class to another with split-second timing. He is President of the Italian Club, and a member of the Debating Club, where he has often impressed us with his deep sense of consideration. May you speed merrily on your way, Paul, to a bright and happy future! PAULSIOSEEMAVALLLE TLE Paul is small in stature but mighty in power of thought. His name has always been on the honor roll, and we are sure that his noble deeds in life will be ever listed in the role of fame. Paul has always been an active participant in all inter-mural sports, and there is nothing too small to in- terest him in school circles. Best of luck, Paul, from all of us. 25 eee N

== Nii Dominus, pusta —— THERESA ROSE CARCHIDI That surprises come in small packages certainly holds true with Tessie. A “Wizard” in studies, especially math, is the only appropriate word that can be used to describe her. Her cheerful smile and encouraging advice have spurred many seniors on to success. But one good turn deserves another; therefore, we wish Tessie all the happi- ness and luck that the future holds in store for her. THERESA CONSTANCE CHABOT Some day, we hope to see Tessie’s name as a great star, featured in the Ice Follies, for this blue-eyed senior has given much of her time to figure skating. However, we have many other activities to list up in Tessie’s school life, not least among them being her achievements in the schol- astic line. When the roll call for celebrities of the Class of 43 is sounded we will look for her name. JEANNE REA COLLETTE Jeanne certainly follows the dictum—'‘be seen, not heard’, for seldom do we hear a word from her, yet she is one of the most popular of the seniors. A conscientious attention to duty has been her outstanding characteristic, and we feel certain it will spell tremendous success in the business world. DOROTHY ANNE COMISKEY Tall, slender, attractive, and friendly—this is Dot, all the way from Leominster. Another admirable trait we have noted all along in her is an unusual spirit of kindliness— something which they say, is rare in us young mortals. In all our memories of Dot, there is nothing but the pleasant- est, and we hope that her pathway will be flooded with sunshine. IRENE BABARA CANNON Irene is that pretty little miss with titian curls who comes from the East Side. Well may that secluded locality be proud to claim her as its own. Irene, always keep that twinkle in your eye, and that ever-ready smile, and you'll be as much a success in business as you have been in school. 27
