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

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

Her ambition is to further her intellectual development. In library work, she aims to excel, and to make her way into the halls of fame, into the Congressional Library at Washington. Her manner, her readiness to serve, her ability to meet difficulties will prove most serviceable in her profession of librarian. MARY RITA HUNT 129 Jenks Avenue Central Falls, R. I. If everyone had been given the same pleasant, cheerful and sunny disposition that is Rita's, the world would be a bright place to live in. Being loyal friend and true classmate everyone is her friend. After graduation, she intends to enter the business world, and we know that she will reach the very top of the ladder of success. MAJORIE MARY JUB1NV1LLE 55 Budlong Avenue Norwood, R. I. Marge comes all the way from Norwood and is usually (?) on time. During her four years with us, she has had a great following. Her sweet smile is contagious. Lovable and worthy characteristics are her possessions. Outstanding is her artistic ability. Marge's choice of career will probably be “Domestic Bliss. Is't true, dearie? RITA ELIZABETH KAVANAGH 75 Longwood Avenue Providence, R. I. This little colleen is transformed into a veritable oracle, every morning at 9:50. Rita is very generous with her information and is always ready to help others less favored than she. At times, her irrepressible wit gives vent to a humorous outburst. Her studies always get due attention. Without her, the altos would miss one of their best singers. Page Eighteen
