Th e. X V I E R I 932 JEANNE MARIE BOIVIN 606 Public Street Providence Jeanne is a concrete example of the expression, true friend,” so sincere, so helpful and so dexterous that one is always sure of her support. These characteristic qualities so typical of Jeanne, will be for her future career, assets that bring about rare opportunities which we know call for recognition where real worth is appreciated. CATHERINE MARY CASSIDY 29 Waterman Street Valley Falls, R. I. Although the C’s come first in Catherine’s name, the A's hold first place on her reports. Her translation of Virgil makes her the pride of the Latin class. Catherine is aptly dexterous in knowing when and how to combine humor and seriousness. After a trip to Boston, she returned having merited Honorable Mention in the Slogan Contest at Emmanuel College. GLADYS BEATRICE CARLIN 20 Vandewater Street Providence, R. I. Our class is fortunate in having such a member as Gladys. Her gentle and unassuming manner reaches many hearts. For the past two years she has been our class Secretary; in this capacity her reports have been detailed and helpful to the President. Our Drummer has done her part in making our fine orchestra lively. ELEANOR JOSEPHINE CARROLL 43 Bailey Street Arlington, R. I. “A form more fair, a face more sweet. Ne’er has it been my lot to meet. Her pleasing manner and graceful air. Show her as wise as she is fair.” This is our tribute to Eleanor. Though you meet her at many social functions, her report tells us that her school duties are first in order. Page Eleven

The X WIER 1932 ELLEENE MARY ANNIS Warwick Rhode Island Elleene is a combination of dignity and loyalty. She possesses an attractive, sweet manner that has made her loved. In her we find a friend and loving pal. A high standing in her studies for four years is hers. We know that she will uphold the reputation of her Alma Mater wherever she goes. ANNA RITA BANNIGAN 155 Colfax Street Providence, R. I. Anna is one of our outstanding students. Her English themes, and Latin translations prove this statement. She has a decided sense of humor and she humors us with it. Thus equipped, Anna finds entrance into any circle and enjoys a welcome. Her loyalty to Saint Xavier’s is something that under-graduates will do well to emulate. HELEN DOROTHY BENNETT V 220 Burnside Street Providence Helen has a personality truly admirable. She is Vice-President of our orchestra, in which she is one of the leading pianists. St. Xavier's will miss her spiriting influence in the coming year. The distinction of editor of the “Senior Spotlight,” a weekly publication, belongs to her. Despite her activities such as basketball, orchestra, etc., Helen enjoys a reputation for commercial ability. MARGARET ELIZABETH BLACK 100 Plain Street Providence, R. I. Margaret is one of our expert dancers. Although she takes great delight in tripping on “the light fantastic toe it does not mar her studies, for she is always on the alert. Margaret’s aim is to don cap and gown. We can imagine her gliding lightly along into wards ministering to her patients. Page Ten

She enters earnestly with the Senior team and carries away many laurels. May Harriet carry with her the qualities of character she has manifested at Saint Xavier’s Academy! J MILDRED GERTRUDE CLAY 909 Douglas Avenue Providence, R. I. Mildred is our great “pal” because of her amiable disposition. Looking at things from the bright side is characteristic of her. Her sense of real humor does not interfere with her studies as her reports testify. She is also a splendid pianist and ready to use her talent for our benefit. In athletics, too, Millie is a star leader. MARY VIRGINIA CONNOR Wionkiege Hill Rhode Island Mary is our lone delegate from far, distant Wionkiege Hill! She is very fond of Chemistry. Tuesday afternoons she becomes over-eager in the “ab”L work: the various bottles and tubes have a fascination for her. Basketball is one of her enjoyable pastimes. We just know that Mary's future will be successful! GRACE DOROTHY COONAN 24 Longwood Avenue Pawtuxet, R. I. To hear the brisk tap-tapping of spike heels announces the arrival of Grace. Her pleasing personality and good nature have brought her many friends. Grace does not take life too seriously, however, she does not shirk duties. She is resourceful and is ever helping others. Rumor tells us that Grace aspires to higher heights in Rhode Island State College. Page T welvc
