The X V I E R 1932 EILEEN AGNES KENNEDY 13 Metcalf Avenue North Providence Eileen is one of the quiet girls of the class. She is especially fond of English and enjoys the debates in Apologetics. She comes from Centredale Metropolis and we usually find her and Edna rushing to make that 3:10 car after school. We do not know what Eileen intends to do; however, Alma Mater's blessing will sustain her. RITA MARY KENNEDY 22 O'Neil Street Providence, R. I. V If it were possible for a smile “to go a long way, Rita certainly would make her way because of her pleasing personality. French and Chemistry are her favorite tasks. She excels not only in those, but her marks show an equally high standing in her other studies. Rita has qualities that spell success. MARY ELIZABETH KENNY 97 Darling Street Central Falls, R. I. Mary’s admirable qualities of sympathy, helpfulness, humor, and understanding have endeared her to us since her advent to Saint Xavier's. In studies, Mary ranks very high; this is notable when a difficult Latin construction puzzles the class. We always look to Mary for her opinion concerning a problem in History. Saint Xavier's orchestra recognizes Mary’s ability as a violinist. ELIZABETH MARGARET KING 30 Corliss Street Providence, R. I. Let us present to you this demure young lady, Eliza-beth. She is a strong support in class activities and is well liked for her sportsmanship. Elizabeth combines intelligence with real humor, a veritable L'Allegro at luncheon-time but an II Penseroso in the classroom. Gracefully does she glide in the “gym” at recreation periods.

The XAVIER 1932 KATHRYN HUMPHREY KEENAN 116 Wyndham Avenue Providence, R. I. How fortunate was Kathryn when she decided to leave Classical in her Sophomore year and come to S. X. A. With her pleasing personality and charming ways, she possesses the friendship of all her classmates. Kathryn has great skill as a basketball player. Her favorite study is French, but one may also note her ability in English. MARGARET MARIE KELLY 104 Alverson Avenue Providence, R. I. Here comes “Peg” and the basketball. Everyone at S. X. A. knows that “Peg” is an ace in the basketball team; her spare time is spent in “gym” practicing this favorite game. Her gay laughter and ready wit have gained for her much popularity, not only in her own class but with members of the whole school. RITA MARY KELLY 283 1 2 Oxford Street Providence, R. I. A crowd, a burst of laughter, and then Rita. Gay, happy and always ready to be useful. Her efficiency as an Historian is noted and we know that Rita would make a brilliant story of past events, however she intends to enter some Business College. She smiles when you praise her, she smiles when you scold her, and she smiles when you say nothing to her. Good luck and success Rita! VIRGINIA ELIZABETH KELLEY 34 Osceola Avenue Providence, R. I. Virginia is a loyal pal and we have enjoyed her worth for the past four years. She is one of the finished pianists in our orchestra. Noted as an apt student, her record is high. Politeness and a charming manner have won their way into our hearts, and Virginia will be sadly missed at the parting of the ways. Page Nineteen

True to the end, is the motto Helen has adopted in regard to her tested loyalty. Parle-t-elle francais?” Just visit our French class some Monday when Mademoiselle is present, and hear Helen in her French role. EDNA MARIE LABOISSIONNIERE 21 Redfern Street Centredale, R. I. “La petite demoiselle, Edna! Each morning Edna comes to class with a cheerful smile, ready to greet everyone. Anytime you need help, you are sure to get an unselfish amount of it. We feel that if constant endeavor brings a reward, Edna will reap a harvest in plenty. Edna is an earnest student. MARGUERITE KATHERINE LOEHN1NG 369 Ives Street Providence. R. I. “Peg is the young lady who does things quietly and well. The fact that every other member of her “crowd” plays basketball doesn’t worry dainty “Peg; she'll be nurse and mascot! One of Peg's outstanding characteristics is her praise of others. One never hears an unkind word or criticism from her. Once a friend of “Peg's,” always a friend. ANNA MARIE LYNCH 30 Tecumseh Street Providence, R. I. During Anna’s years in St. Xavier's, she has won the love and admiration of all the girls. In the absence of our professor, one may often see our orchestral president swinging the baton in the auditorium, as the inspiring director of the orchestra. In her studies, she has a proud record and is also Class Secretary. Page Twcnty'onc
