LEAHY Fran Here is the Seniors ' most active young lady. Red-headed Fran was chosen as our Leading I ady in the class play, and took the part of Margie, the beautiful daughter of the house. As is usual with red-heads, she has freckles and hates them, but that doesn ' t detract from her looks in the least. Frances has taken part in most every event in the school besides being one of the smartest girls in her class (Honor Roll four years). She earned letters in hockey and was an outstanding player in that sport. This good-looking and versatile girl is a mem- ber of the S Club, Latin and Dramatic Cluo . She was Secretary of the French Club in her Senior year and was a member of the Swastika A. A. She has served on the Semaphore staff as art and literary editor respectively. Had a part on the decorating committee of the Prom and was an usher at that function. This year she was made a member of the Senior Graduation Committee. Besides all this, and winning two public speaking contests here in the school, she had the extreme nerve to write the Class Ode which is a beautiful piece of work. Fran plans to attend Boston University College of Liberal Arts — majoring in Bac- teriology — Bugs to you ! Oh you miserable pair of cheats, but I ' ll save my father in spite of you ! ! ALFRED NOVICK Al Al developed his vocal chords by joining the Glee Club and now he is the leading tenor in the Senior Class. That ' s why he made such a corking Cheer Leader. Al is also a very prominent member of the orchestra and plays a mean violin. He has no plans for the future but every one of us who saw his work in the Art Club exhibit insist that he go on with his work — it really was marvelous! ! While he was kidding he found time to be on the Junior Prom, Junior Ring, and Junior Class Day Com- mittees. And what does he do . .ixth period? Are you asking us?? EDWARD YASKUN Eddie Eddie is a cute little blonde — and he ' s got something that gets all the girls. One reason for his great appeal is the S he earned in football this year, and which he prominently displays on a fuzzy white sweater. And didn ' t you think he was just too cute for words as Dickie in our class play? He belonged to the Science and Glee Clubs and helped to make our Prom successful by serving on one of the com- mittees. And he helped choose the rings, too! He ' s never seen without Mushy Brickell. He will, as he says, attempt to enter some college. JOSEPH O ' BRIEN Brick Brick has desires to be a C. P. A., and as he is considered the smartest boy in the Senior Class we have no doubt but that he will be successful. It ' s very easy to see how he got his nickname! His hair is a veritable thatch of brilliant orangeish-red color. Everyone thinks the world of Brick for his cute little figger and wonderful good nature. He ' s a whizz at U. S. History although he cannot con- trol the class very well!! He and Mr. Maffeo get along screamingly well. Every time we see a round face beaming with good humor we think immediately of Brick. He ' s one swell kid! EDNA E. TOOHEY Ed Tall graceful Edna is one of our most beau- tiful young ladies. The secret of her charm lies in her complete coolness and poise in the face of difficulties. Well liked by every one, she has represented the class on the Junior Prom, Senior Advisory, and Junior Ring Committees. Ed has a cute little giggle and an amazing way of clearing her throat that is absolutely clever! She pals with Barbara Drake. They say like attracts unlike — Bibs is as short as Edna is long. Edna takes Home Economics and belongs to the club of that name. She ' ll make some lucky man a lovely wife some day.
