ANTHONY PANDISCIO “Marka” made an enviable record for himself by his skillful manipulation of the pigskin on the gridiron. His fame does not rest alone on athletics for we understand he has a host of friends in and out of school. Best of luck from us all, Marka, and may your star shine long and bright. JOSEPH ROMEO PELLETIER Romeo is one of our represcntatives from Leominster. He makes life pleasant for himself and his classmates, as well as his teachers, by combining both work and play into a harmonious whole. Our best wishes for a happy future, Romeo. LEO JAMES REGAN “Clem” won his laurels in sports often, but never more so than in his famous ninety-yard run in the game with Leom- inster. He portrayed “Judas” with distinction in the Pas- sion Plays, and “Tony” in the Junior-Senior Reception. In social circles he is well liked by all, and now at graduation he takes away with him the best wishes of every member of his class. JOHN PAUL SARASIN With very little exaggeration John is a veritable treasure house of learning. In the math. classes it simply bubbled over, as he was never at a loss in the solution of the most difficult problem. In his social interests we rate him Al for he was always genial and kindly. He was a member of the Dramatic Club, and often entertained us with apt performances. The best of everything, John, in the dra- matics of life. ROBERT ALFRED SAVAGEAU Robert was our daily companion for four years during which time we learned to appreciate his worth. Retiring, and with enough level-headedness to be an interested student, he scored many unusual successes in the classroom. With a practical bend to business, we won't be at all surprised to hear great things from Bob very soon in that field. Loads of luck, Bob. 18

el ai 2 FRANCIS RICHARD LE CLAIR Franny has been our synonym of bodily vigor and unde- finable mirth. He has revealed himself as an athlete of worth, and as a dependable friend. We know that his wit and joviality have as a founda‘ion, aggressiveness, sensibil- ity, and seriousness of purpose. We wish the best of every- thing for him. NICHOLAS JOHN MONTESION We get the impression that Nick is a busy man of the world whose many inieresis keep life from becoming drab for him. Quiet in manner and sincere in purpose, he has impressed all of us at St. Bernard's as a good dependable fellow to have for a friend. PHILIP NORMAN NORMANDIN Phil made himself a renowned figure in the field of sports—football his specialty. Although bold and daring on the gridiron, Phil is retiring and decidedly conservative in the social sphere, but it is just that which will get you far in the world of friends, Phil. Keep up the good work, and Dame Fortune cannot but repay. ROBERT ALFRED NORMANDIN Bob, straightforward, strapping, and pleasant, added much to the glory of our illustrious class. He never failed to exhibit the utmost couriesy whenever an occasion offered. From what we hear Bob intends to become a draftsman. Go to it, Bob, we're all with you. ERNEST ARTHUR NOURIE Here we introduce our future “‘Inness’’ of the class of '46. On the side Ernie's cartoons have furnished many chuckles; but his paintings and formal drawings have ever impressed us as evidence of the latent talent that will bring glory to our class. Smooth sailing, Ernie, and here's hope that your ship will dock at the desired port. 17

WILLIAM EDWARD SOWERBUTTS Bill is our idea of a true, loyal classmate. He was al- ways unexpectedly near when assistance was needed, whether it was a car for a basketball game, or a decorator for a so- cial. During class hours he was usually serious, intent on the work of the moment, but when work was finished his broad smile revealed the glowing warmth of a fine char- acter. The best of everything, Bill. LOUIS SAMUEL TULIANO Louis, spirited and full of zest and vigor, has added greatly to the spriteliness of our school days. He was al- ways the embodiment of wholesome fun, and it will be a pleasure in the days ahead to recall this worthy classmate of °46. GERMAINE THERESA ARMSTRONG Gimmy is one of the tiniest members of our class, but in spite of this manages to have a good time. She is charm- ing, vivacious and very pleasant. What her plans for the future are, we do not know, but one thing is certain, she will always be a credit to St. Bernard’s. Best of everything, Gimmy. PAULINE LENA AUBIN Pauline’s eyes make you think of the ocean, on a clear spring morning. The peace and calm that envelops her al- ways has the happy faculty of communicating itself to us, for we never fail to have a happy, pleasant pastime in her company. May she ever spread about her the quiet happi- ness of high school days. DORIS ANNE BASQUE All during her stay at Harvard Street Doris has been quiet, unobtrusive, and very sweet. She was one of the early arrivals every morning, and spent the time before classes began in studying Law or History. We might have profited by her good example, but it was hard for some of us to learn. Au revoir, Doris, and may every happiness be yours. 19
