THE SEMAPHORE MARY MURPHY Mollie Those of you who saw the Senior Play remember Mary as Minnie Knoop. Wasn ' t she a howl in that! Public Speaking was her specialty during her first two years at High. EVELYN WINSHIP Evie Evie can always be found in the ca- pacity of someone ' s secretary. She has been Mr. Randall ' s right-hand woman during this last year. In the Senior Play she played the part of Elsie Crowder, a girl who knew what she wanted and when she wanted and how she wanted and who final- ly got him! Evie has also been Frank Jordan ' s right-hand woman in the position of the Vice-President of our class. Evie ' s Cheesebox is a well-known curio of the town. Besides all this executive work she has found time to belong to several clubs, as well as to appear listed on the Honor Roll as being last but not least . We won- der if someone has been reading her notes, since this last year she has taken to study- ing Shorthand. IRENE CALL AN Slim Slim believes in beir;j on committees. She has been frequently found putting last minute touches on dance decorations, or sampling the refreshments. She has also been in the Home Economics Club and the French Club. Her special delight, however, is to fly about the gym, during gym classes. RUTH GUSHING Ruddy Ruth ' s specialty, outside of school work, seems to have been clubs of all sorts and sizes. She has attended Glee Club regularly for four years. She has also belonged to the Dramatic, French, Commercial, and S Clubs. She has also - iven a full share of her time to Basketball and Hockey. FRANK JORDAN Frankie B. C. President of class 3, 4, Student Council 3, 4. (President 4), Junior Ring Commit- tee 3, Senior Advisory Board 4, Science Club 1, Stc e Manager Senior Play, Pub- licity Committee Senior Play, Semaphore 4, Commencenynt Week Committees: Graduation, Banquet, Reception, Sopho- more Dance Committee 2. Frankie is posing as a gigolo and is driving around in a Pontiac. Page Ten ABBIE CHASE Chasie Abbie is our Class Secretary and to see her rushing around is proof enough that she is an ambitious personage. Glee Club and Basketball, together with various com- mittees, have served to occupy all of her cinie. To say nothing of her boy-friend. MIRIAM WECHSLER Mickey Mickey is one ' s idea of the perfect typist , even though she does loiter behind counters. She made the highest record in typing a few weeks r» o, and we ' re very proud of her. She belongs to the Dramatic Club and was once Martha Washington in a patriotic play, which was presented in assembly. DOROTHY LEAVITT Dot Dorothy is the one who likes to write notes when she shouldn ' t. Her great ac- complishment is in keeping her hair in per- fect order. I never have seen it rumpled, have vou? Clubs have been Dot ' s special- ty. BLANCHE WALENT Bronie Bronie is the girl who knows her type- writing and shoi-thand. She once attempted the impossible — taking down Mr. Maffeo ' s assignments in shorthand. Outside of be- having: herself in class, Bronie has be- longed to the Glee Club for two years and also to the Commercial Club and the French Club. ELEANOR DARLING Sally Eleanor was our helpful aide-de-camp in the Senior Play. She was our prompter and without her what would we have done? She has played Basketball and Hockey and has served on various committees. Amont st all her activities in club work, Eleanor has found time to attain the Honor Roll sever- al times. EDWARD LaCIVITA Cookie Cheer Leader 2, 3, 4, Manager of Bas- ketball, S Club Travelogue: Publicity Manager, Bud in Senior Class Play, Bas- ketball 4, Graduation Committee 4, Senior Advisory Board 4. Eddie is a high-powered salesman. Some day he will adsentmindedly sell HIMSELF. Patronize Semaphore Advertisers

STOUGHTON HIGH SCHOOL HELEN SPILLANE Spillie Helen hasn ' t much to say, but she does her little bit. She was Secretary of the class in her Junior year and was President of the Home Economics Club in her Senior year. Nor have committees lacked her presence. KATHLEEN QUINN Kay Kay is tall, slender and a typical dark- eyed beauty. She has a habit of ijetting ses- sions, but she manages to find time for clubs and committees. During her Senior year she has been Secretary of the Home Economics Club. MARGARET FOSTER Missy Missy believes in being a help instead of a hindrance. She was the busy Basket- ball Manager during her Senior year, and also during her Senior year she played Goal on the Hockey Field. She has be- longed to the Dramatic Club, French Club, and Home Economics Club. ESTELLE JONES Estelle In a recent contest, Estelle was voted the quietest girl in the class and she certain- ly lives up to her description. However, the French Club and the Glee Club can vouch for her presence. EILEEN WELCH Eileen Eileen has aspirations of becoming a nurse. Did someone say, God help the patient ? Oh, no, she is not at all like that, even though she does drive the Ford rather recklessly. But she performs her duty as the Stock Room Girl in an orderly way. ELINOR JACKSON Jackie Jackie has dramatic ability. She was Mrs. Carroll in the Senior Play and is soloing in the Cantata. She has rather worn out the floors, carrying the attendance slips every morning. HELEN ZAISER Helen Helen wants to be an accountant and is going to Burdett ' s. She has belonged to many different clubs and has made her numerals in Basketball. Patronize Semaphore Avertisers MARGARET JOYCE Peg Margaret is a quiet girl with a con- tagious grin. She has been on various com- mittees and has been faithful in her at- tendance at the Home Economics Club for four years. Peg ' s ambition is to be a nurse. MARY MORRIS Red Mary is noticeable throughout the school because of her carroty-red hair. This adds to her popularity, however, and she has been voted the It girl of the Senior Class. Besides being on several committees and belonging to several clubs, Red has found time to join the Honor Roll. EVANGELINE MALINOSKY Vangie Judging from the amount of noise Van- gie makes, one would think she never does anything. But this is not the case — she be- longs to the French Club and has belonged to various other clubs throughout her four years. OLIVE WILSON Ollie Olive is the class aristocrat, as we dis- covered when she performed her role as Mrs. Smith-Porter in the Senior Play. Could she high-hat the people! But Olive isn ' t really like that. She is a living adver- tisement — Gentlemen Prefer Blondes ! MARJORIE AMERY Marj Marj hasn ' t made much noise during her four years at High, but we all know she ' s here. Rain or shine, Marjorie does her daily dozen by walking to school way from the wilds of West Stou hton. ELIZABETH WEBSTER Beth Beth is one of our outstanding ath- letes. She has made letters in both Hockey and Basketball, and Captained the Hockey team in her Senior year. She was also chos- en for the All-Boston Hockey Team. She has had more than her share of Committees and Clubs and has performed her duties admirably. Of course she lives up in the Rural District, but who said good people couldn ' t be found in the Sticks ? We sometimes wonder why Beth seems so in- terested when anything connected with farming is mentioned in Biology class. Page Nine

ST OUGHT ON HIGH SCHOOL AMELIA RUSSELL Millie Millie has concentrated on her studies mostly, but her outside activities have not suffered. The Glee Club and the French Club are within her circle of amusements. DESPINA VACOULIS P ' nut P ' nut is seen everywhere and is known every place, in school. She has entered all athletics with great zest and has made both numerals and a letter. She is our Class Pianist, playing for the Glee Clubs, Chorus work, and in the orchestra. P ' nut is planning to attend the New England Con- servatory of Music, and we sincerely hope she makes r ood in her chosen profession. And we mustn ' t forget the comical part she had in the Senior Play, of Angelina Knoop — the loved one of Bud . JOHN LISOWSKI Yoni Yoni is a very quiet boy and is noted for doing his Problems. Yoni is going to Meade ' s Academy to further his studies. The Class of 32 AMERY, MARJORIE Fourth period Marjorie holds the office down ; Always a smile, never a frown. BEDNARZ, TESSIE Some girls are popular, so they chime; This holds for Tes all the time. BETE, JOHN John has a girl whether near or far; I wonder if it is because of the car?
