■ tr g-g. g-erg-grggig-gt mn The X WIER 1932 CHRISTINE GERTRUDE FOLLETT Elm Avenue Shawomet, R. I. Unselfishness has characterized “Chris throughout her school life and has made her a real favorite. Too much cannot be said for our Vice-President; she is reserved, gracious and intelligent; “she is wise and good and fair. These lovely Southern lines are typical of her: “It's the songs ye sing and the smiles ye wear That’s makin' the sunshine everywhere.” MARGARET CHRISTINE FRITZCHE 5 Stewart Street Providence, R. I. Surely you all know Senorita Margarita! She brings joy and cheer wherever she goes. She has a personality which has helped her to create many friends. Although small in stature, we all agree that “Good things come in small packages. We feel, that Margaret in her life work as nurse, will bring comfort and cheer to her patients. ELEANORA ROSE GAROFANO 1141 Plainfield Street Thornton, Mass. Though reserved in manner, we find Eleanora a loyal classmate of pleasing personality, and lady-like manners. She has many friends, and her innate good nature has endeared her to us. She ranks high in studies excelling in Typing and Spanish. A way all her own to collect class dues, is hers, and she needs that tact, as any Treasurer can testify. DORIS FRANCES GEDDES 30 Highland Street Pawtucket, R. I. Doris and Byron agree: “All who joy would win must share it.” Doris likes to make everybody happy. She is inventive in spreading sunshine all about. To quote from the following, describes her,— “Keeping folks happy, through comfort and cheer, Making folks better, just having her near, That is the story of Dotty’s school days And that is why folks love her,—God bless her, always.” Sixteen

The X AV I E R I 932 EILEEN ANN EARNSHAW 677 Huntington Avenue Providence “Mire Vd.” one of the blondes of the Senior class. She has shown a splendid spirit in study and in taking active part in social and class affairs. Her favorite subject is Shorthand, and she excels in drawing. The Xavier’s pages are adorned by her sketches. A strong link will be missing in Eileen's chain when Marge says “au revoir.” MARY FRANCES EGAN 11 Elizabeth Street Valley Falls, R. I. We know Mary to be sociable, courteous, studious, lovable. Her artistic ability in dramatics has been displayed on many occasions. Especially did the Mercy Pageant celebration mark her fitness for the important role she filled. Her student ways combined with an unassuming manner and kindly attitude toward others, form a legacy which all St. Xavier's students might emulate. HAZEL EUGENIA ENNIS ✓ Fairview Avenue Warwick What nature failed to bestow in height, it made up with the gift of intelligence. Hazel is one of the bright Commercial Seniors. Beautiful brown hair, and a gracious countenance pictures for us quite vividly our Hazel. She ranks high in all her studies but is especially fond of Spanish and Typing. GERTRUDE TERESA FITZGERALD 114 Salma Street Providence, R. I. “Gert as she is best known to all is one of our favored seniors. With her sunny disposition she has gained the hearts of all her classmates. Dull, indeed by times would be the class without her pleasant jests. Gertrude has talent as a pianist and is ever ready to furnish the music at our class dances. Page Fifteen

Th e X AV I E R I 932 MARY GRACE GILCHRIST 152 Peace Street Providence, R. I. We will always remember Mary for her quiet, reserved manner, and studious habits. Mary has a sweet dignity about her which earns for her the coveted title, “lady.” Her outstanding accomplishment is her violin-playing. Saint Xavier's Orchestra will miss her when she leaves. Mary is a diligent worker and loyal classmate. DORIS MARY GREENE 92 Salina Street Providence, R. 1. Dot stands out as a friend and a student as well. Her student life in the combination of work and play may be termed perfect. She seems to find time for everything and everybody, and even a little extra spare time for chemistry. Dot will grant that the Lab' has its attractions. AGNES VERONICA GREENWOOD 31 Charles Street Lonsdale, R. I. Agnes has a proud record in S. X. A. Neither a tardy nor an absent mark mars her report for four consecutive years. Note her initials A. G. The first letter “A is for excellence and it holds its own place when reports are due; the second letter “G characterizes her as generous, gracious, good, and we add, a true pal. GERTRUDE RITA GRIMES 64 Watson Street Central Falls, R. I. Continued cheerfulness characterizes Gertrude, our efficient Class Treasurer. We are further ready to title her as a twentieth century “Socrates. Her conversation is filled with wit; she can manufacture a joke out of the most casual happening. A closer knowledge of her reveals her strength of character, her high ideals, her noble aspirations, and her strong adherence. Page Seventeen
