William Henry Dolan Although popular Bill estab- lished himself as a fine gridiron tackle, he still remained the same unassuming, friendly fellow out- standing for his sincerity and loyalty. As Room 31 administra- tor, and as co-manager of the yearbook advertising committee, Bill ably demonstrated his un- usual executive ability. James Joseph Donelan Everyone knows Coach, our tall, powerful senior, the cheer- ful fellow with all the jokes, and a great sense of humor. Jim is an ardent sports’ fan and a loyal supporter of the Saints. He has been an active student participat- ing in many events. During lunch period Jim’s forensic ability is at its best. Robert Edward Dumont No matter when we look Bob’s way, his face always expresses his cheerful disposition, sunny smile, and unchangeable good nature. Bob’s popularity was further in- creased by his fine work on the football squad. Room 31 vouches for the fact that Bob is most re- liable, cooperative, and highly efficient. 2 George Richard Dunn In tall, lanky George we have a happy-go-lucky schoolmate, who has no enemies because he is never antagonistic or disagree- able. He takes a loyal interest in everything that happens about school and lends his assistance in various activities to which he gives his staunch, wholehearted support. Pay y yr Neil Richard Driscoll Neil, one of our few real blonds, is a general favorite who not only enjoys himself but sees to it that others are brought into the fun. Possessing a good whole- some sense of humor himself, he appreciates this quality in others as his hearty laugh testifies. Neil is another one of our really good football players. Robert Armand Duval Through four happy years, we have enjoyed the pleasant com- radeship of dashing, debonair Bob. His clean-cut appearance, black wavy hair, and endless sup- ply of sharp ties are our pride and joy. Mechanical Drawing is the class where Bob is a shining light, which speaks well for a career as draftsman. Lrady of lncle and— YW ila Me Se eu

Unpretentious in all he says and does, Gil’s many friends appreciate most his un- shakeable loyalty. Get him at a piano or a typewriter, and how his dexterous fingers make the keys fly! tf vA Dominic John DePasquale Duke is another worthy con- tribution of Leominster to S. B. H. S. Gifted with a keen intelli- gence and a willingness to work, Dominic ranks among the highest in scholarship. He is a faithful, enthusiastic supporter of all school activities, particularly as orchestra trumpeter and Blue and Gold contributor. Yo oy wet James Francis Crain Jim, an outstanding gridiron hero, played right tackle for three years, and has been given honor- able mention for all-state tackle, and honored also by being named to the North Worcester County All Star Squad. Jim is also a fine student, a modest gentleman, and a jolly entertainer with his songs and ditties.

John Bernard Enright Jack's successive positions on the Blue and Gold—feature writ- er, sports editor, and co-editor, brought our literary genius of ‘49 into prominence, But this unassuming, slender chap with a humorous twinkle in his eye is unaware that he can coin at will ten-dollar words to every one of our ten-cent variety. ‘dward Bernard Flynn Tall, affable, energetic Eddie is every inch a man, and true blue, A good student, a jovial wcere friend, a man of his word hese but partly explain efh- ‘nt Ed's popularity and our hoice of him tor Representative. or of owe yearbook, Eddie neither timy nor effort to ay Robert Finneron Robert is one of the lucky few to whom studies offer little dif- ficulty, as demonstrated by his high scholastic record. To his credit, Bob never assumed a superior air, but always remained a modest, congenial chap. As Treasurer of the Debating Club and as an active debater, Robert did a fine piece of work, Roger Paul Fontaine Chuck, mild-tempered and prominent in many activities, is a specialist in football and in the art of making and keeping friends. He has the distinctive honor of being the first Bernard- ian chosen as a member of the Worcester County All Stars, and has also been giv honorable mention on tl s. VXI aay Aearny g . . “ George Eugene Fluet George is a Bernardian about whom we can’t say enough con- cerning his admirable, - friendly traits. He certainly deserves the title “Amicus,” as we know from experience. Fortunate possessor of a never-failing sense Of humor, likeable George is just’ the fel- low to have around when the go- ing looks tough. Albert Whitfield Ganong Al travels a long road from Ayer to come to us every day, but it apparently hasn't impaired his habitual good nature and vi- tality any, for he’s always full of pep and ready for fun all day long. Although a newcomer in junior year, it didn’t take Albert long to become acclimated and make steadfast friends.
