Joanne Barbara Curtis Dancing, friendly eyes and ir- risistible charm are part of the make-up of our Joanne. Her sin- cere and rather shy, unassuming manner has won for her a choice place in our hearts, for we know she is true blue when it comes to friendship. Although fun-lov- ing, Joanne balances study and yo in a most favorable way. ) ) Constance Theresa DeLisle With a rippling laugh and a great big smile, Connie greets us every morning. Modest and retiring, her appearance, poise, and voice always bespeak e f- ficiency and refinement. Connie has not only done fine work in studies, but has also ably de- monstrated her dramatic ability in the Christmas and Senior class play. Charleen Mary Dahlin Charleen and Jeannette are our Damon and Pythias of the West. Where you find one, you'll find the other. Charleen is al- ways affable and gracious, and so cooperative and efficient, as demonstrated in her willingness to work and do more than her share on the yearbook. Swimming is the sport she likes best. Lucille Yvonne Desaulniers The girl with the happy, smil- ing, dancing eyes is no cther than our friendly Lucille, secretary of the French Club. She has moved among us day after day, and we are pleased to report that we have never seen thase sparkling eyes, dull or lowering. May you always keep ¢thisy cheerful ut- a ¢ 4 . look on life» Lucille!) AS : e ey ; Poy of oy 4 sy vA on . ¥ 269 (WW } ! ¢ ‘ s . F Ly r Barbara Ann DeBonville Barb typifies the well-known saying that good things come in small packages. A dynamo of en- ergy, she dances, bowls, skates to perfection and shows great vim in supporting Bernardian contests. Barb’s innate sense of what constitutes good taste in dress will favor her career as a fashion designer. Therese Lena Dignard That tall blonde is our Terry; another famous senior from Leo- minster, who dispenses general good will wherever she goes. Terry has a variety of interests and is always right at home with the world. A great lover of mu- sic, she plays classical and popu- lar selections remarkably well and is also a great sports fan.

Josephine Anna Ciarlone Happy-go-lucky Jo is always ready for a good time, and un- selfishly wants others to have one, too. She is outstanding for her raven tresses, dark eyes, and neat- ness of person. What's her hob- by? Not one, but many,—danc- ing, music, bowling, swimming. T. C. is her goal, and we all ish Jo great success. i Pauline Marguerite Cormier Shorty, one of our very petite members, has been outstanding for her ability in dramatics and debating. To think that such power and eloquence could issue forth from such a tiny body! Her alert mind and nimble fingers have also brought her proficiency in taking shorthand and in ob- taining high typing records. Sarah Anne Collura Sarah’s ringing laughter is as refreshing as a breath of spring. Her pleasant companionship and good humor are always a sure cure for worries and blues. Sarah's board sketching has convinced us that we have an artist in our midst. We hope to see the Art Center featuring an exhibit of her painting some day. a ) ‘ Flora Rita Cote With her flaxen hair, dainti- ness, and gay but unpretentious air, Flora is truly flowerlike. Her sunny, unruffled disposition has made her well liked and gained many lasting friends. Her win- some personality and tactfulness will be a great asset in her chosen field of work—department head in some big store. Rose Jennie Cordio Soft brown hair, dark twink- ling eyes, a friendly smile, only partly describe our Rose. Blessed with a keen intelligence and an industrious spirit, she has faith- fully maintained a high honor standing. Far from being a blue- stocking, Rose does enjoy good reading, and hopes in the future to be a psychiatrist. Lucille Bertha Couturier Lucille’s. charm lies in her gentle, refined manner and win- ning smile. We like especially the twinkle that makes her brown eyes sparkle more, and gives added expression to her already vivacious countenance. Her soft voice becomes somewhat explo- sive only when attending games in which she shows great interest. f

x ‘ Tl : ; ue VY in 3h - A Edith Ann Donelle Edith, with her quiet, dignified demeanor and gracious reserve, 1s every inch a lady. But under- neath a poised exterior lies a good sense of humor and fun. Always neat in her work and ap- pearance, Edith is a smart dresser. She excels in sports as well as in studies, and is considering a medical career. Claire Marie Dufresne Duff, with her blue eyes and dimples, is our attractive, well- beloved vice-president. Everybody is her buddy, and as she is al- ways bubbling over with joy, we have no dull moments in her company. One of her hobbies is the collecting of the latest jokes. Nursing is the choice of our Duff with her personality plus. te J, Gloria Olive Dower Gloria, a very petite member of our class has stolen a big place in our hearts by her win- someness and simplicity of speech and manner. Her loyalty and splendid school spirit is evi- denced by her regular attendance at Bernardian games. As a nurse, Glo will continue to make life pleasanter for those about her. f Gertrude Irene Edwards A smile, a cheery hello, a sparkling personality, a good stu- dent, and there you have Trudy, who is happiest when in the midst of some school activity, doing her utmost to make it a success, whether it be the Blue and Gold, yearbook, dramatics, French Club, Latin Club vice- president, athletics, socials. PADS LS Or Florence May Ducharme Tall, slender, energetic, and enthusiastic —— that’s Florence, whose congenial nature has made her a general favorite. We see Flo at her best during lunch period, when her joviality makes it a merry period. Stamp collect- ing is one of her hobbies. Her pleasing personality and high grades assure secretarial success. Maureen Agnes Flynn Hear that friendly “Hi”! That's Maurie, a brown-haired, bright- eyed lassie, with everyone for her friend. Her lovely voice has been heard to advantage in the Glee Club, Girls’ Choir, and dramatics. We expect some day to have a copy of Flynn’s “Book of Eti- quette,’ for Maureen’s perfect manners are proverbial.
