Barbara Dolores Forest Barb, with the friendly smile, amiable disposition, and pearly white teeth, comes to us from Whalom. All during the day her sunny disposition is as good a tonic as a day spent at her near- by lake. Barbara’s nimble feet are often found gliding gracefully over the dance-hall floor or rol- ler-skating rink. Doris Mary Gagnon Meet Doris, the other friendly half of the famous Gagnon twins, who so. skillfully manages to maintain that happy medium in her school life—a time for work and a time for play. Doris is ac- tive in many sports but swim- ming is her forte, and football, the game she follows with the keenest interest, and enjoyment. Pauline Cora Forest To her best friends, Pauline is known as Bushes, although her tall, dignified bearing would rath- er suggest a stately pine of the forest. We will always remember Pauline for her contagious, spon- taneous laughter and spirit of fun, for her zest and vigor as a football rooter, and as an expert roller skater. know that popu- has been in the ol activities since H.

Our football games wouldn't be complete without her enthusiastic cheering help.

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.

d Mary Josephine Geary We certainly got a treasure when little Mary came to us ju- nior year. She is always so in- terested, dependable, helpful, and 100% in her loyalty to St. Ber- nard’s. A faithful and efficient student, Mary’s time is also taken up with her many outside activi- ties. What an excellent secretary shegwill make! Lorraine Helen Glenny Our Lorraine, with expressive blue “tyes and warm-hearted i iness, is another one of us fling from the sunny South side. How grateful we are that Lorraine decided to come to us in her junior year! How we would have missed her cheerful- ness and loyalty especially at games and her singing in the Glee Club! Lorraine Frances Gibbons Any Irish colleen would envy Lorraine her lovely red hair and dark-brown eyes, with a person- ality to match in all its sweet- ness and charm. Added to this, Lorraine ranks very high in schol- arship and enjoys all kinds of sports. We expect grea t things to be achieved by our Lorraine in the world of business. Mary Lou Glynn Blonde, blue-eyed smiling Mar- ty is one of the most versatile of our group. A splendid student, she yet finds time for many extra- curricula activities, being especial- ly proficient at the piano. She also enjoys singing, dancing, and various sports. Collecting is a hobby and her collection the most ero S Claire Mary Girouard Claire’s sweet, ready smile and delicate sense of humor, together with an air of refinement and poise, has made her an outstand- ing senior. She is also conspicu - ous for her neat and well-chosen clothes. Although her school work comes first, Claire finds plenty of time for fun and merriment, in- cluding sports. Theresa Mary Goguen Another little miss, who stands high in our esteem, is Terry, who first made our acquaintance in September of 46. Fragile, dainty, with dark, expressive eyes, Ther- esa, nevertheless, has such a keen intellect that even advanced math has no terrors for her. We are glad that its going to be T. C. for Theresa. 1) Vie a
