RAYMOND JOSEPH CORMIER Ray's efficient and thorough-going manner explain his success as a student; and his friendly smile and cordial manner, his many staunch friends. Neither should his courtesy nor his neatness of person go unheralded. Sports appeal to Ray, especially skiing, swimming, and skating— and how he can dance! ROBERT NORMAN CORMIER Bob’s quiet good humor and evenness of disposition never seem to fail him and enliven us. He has the knack of knowing just when to be funny and how far to go with it. His dependability will contribute much to his business success. We had a good sample of his dramatic ability as a junior in Lady of Fatima. DANIEL PHILIP CRAFFEY Dan brightens up any group with his dimpled smile and quick sense of humor. He has an active interest in all sports, but particularly excels at basketball, being one of the top players on the team for two years. Dan’s cleancut appearance makes a fine impression even though he has a flair for crew-cuts. ROBERT JOSEPH CROWLEY We didn’t make the acquaintance of this cheerful Leom- insterite until we were sophs. But as Bob has the happy propensity of making friends easily and then keeping them permanently, it wasn’t long before we felt that he was one of us, 100% in loyalty and school spirit, especially as a zealous cheerleader. THOMAS HENRY DURKIN Tom is one Bernardian we're going to miss an awful lot when high school days are over, for he’s always bubbling over with pep and fun. With his natural humor and clever repartee, he is the life of any group in and out of school. Athletics will also be minus a fine football player and basketball star. 22

JOHN WALTER CAPUTI This tall, manly Southsider is a sower of peace and harmony wherever he goes, and never gets himself into trouble as some of us do by our over talking. But John always has a cheerful note to add to our little friendly confabs. We all like John because he can take a joke on himself as well as give a good one. RENE PAUL CARON You may be sure that where there’s laughter, there's Rene. But he’s never boisterous nor disturbing in his mirth, but in his own quiet way enjoys himself immensely, and mixes in well with all sets. There’s nothing spasmodic about his even cheerful disposition, for he’s always the same pleasant Rene. DONALD OLIVER CHARETTE Don, another of our Leominster boys, although not with us as a freshman, soon made up for lost time, as the num- ber of his SBHS friends testifies. His quiet, unassuming manner, willingness to plunge into things and do his bit are a few of the traits we like in Don. Photography and radio are his pet interests. AIME GUY CHARPENTIER Just one look at happy-go-lucky Carp and you can tell by the flash of his wide-awake eyes that some fun-provoking scheme is being hatched in his alert mind. Generous almost to a fault, Carp never hesitates to use his jallopy as a school bus for his Leominster pals. Carp is a fine skiier, skater, and hunter. LEO PAUL COLLEVTE Affable Leo never seeks to have the spotlight focused on himself, although he holds his own tenaciously when it comes to expressing himself in a good recitation. With a very friendly, helpful interest in others, Leo is always a most agreeable companion. Football is the game that Leo likes best to play. 21

JAMES MARTIN ENWRIGHT Sociable Jimmy is another high-in-stature “5Oer, who likes nothing better than to raise drooping morale by one of his favorite jokes. Jim delights in drawing faces, the more gruesome the better, as the young ladies in his vicinity testify. His Blue and Gold contributions ably prove his literary ability. PAUL FRANCIS FLEMING Tex is that tall, friendly chap, who comes to us each morning from the far West (side), and like the renowned cowboy of old i s a friendly individual of few words but big heart and helping hand. But when it comes to a physiology recitation, the tongue of our Tex is unleashed in eloquent delivery. AUGUSTE HECTOR FORTIN This well-built, Harold-the-Saxon type of youth, came to us in sophomore year from Assumption, and soon be- came one of us. We remember how well Heck served us at the lunch counter, entertained us at Junior-Senior Recep- tion, and played a fine game of ball on the gridiron, until a knee injury occurred. ROGER FREDERICK GAMACHE Sociable, carefree Roger has the unusual record of being on the football team since freshman year, but it is as quar- terback for the past two years that he has been outstanding. He is also a good basketball player and skiier. Next to sports, Roger gets a lot of enjoyment from his hobby of raising rabbits. ROLAND EDMOND GARIEPY Just by looking at Gap, we know that he is a happy optimist to the nth degree and a proponent of mirth and hilarity, so it is evident why his company is sought. How he likes to zoom along Leominster thoroughfares in his shining Plymouth! Next to this he has a great interest in sports, radio, and video. Pi)
