THE SEMAPHORE Page 5 CLASS OFFICERS President William LaFrance Vice President Lauretta Dunkerly Secretary - Katherine Connell Treasurer Arthur Jasmin Class Adviser Miss Christina Donovan Class Colors — Green and White SENIOR STATISTICS FRANCES E. 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.

Page 6 THE SEMAPHORE t LAURENCE McCARTHY ♦ Tim J Tim is one of the shining lights in his ♦ English class, and is the leading exponent of 4 the white cotton socks fad (which we, per- J sonally, think is hideous). Tim has worked ♦ his way up from waterboy to become manager I of the football team and bo3s other water boys. I He has held this unfortunate position for two ♦ years. Baseball is one of the sports he is in- ♦ terested in. In his Freshman j ' ear he belonged to the Glee Club — but for some unknown reason ♦ he isn ' t in it any more! Laurence is consid- ♦ ered to be one of the few good-looking beys ! in the class and will probably choke us for J saying so. He has blue, veiw blue eyes and ♦ blonde hair. In regard to his plans for the ♦ future he says I. C. S. in a mean voice, leaving us without the faintest idea as to J what he means. j JOHN McGARRY ♦ Puer t Puer (which means boy in Latin) has ♦ been attached to John ever since he took up the beloved subject of Latin in his Freshman J year. Puer like3 his fun anywhere and is I one of the reasons w hy teachers go stark, raving mad. In our class play, he surprised ♦ us by coming out with some of the most pas- ♦ sionate love-making ever made. Perhaps he + was inspired by his partner, who knows!! ♦ We ' ll never forget his antics with the gun at ♦ the end of the second act. He is a member of the S Club as he received his letters in J basketball (manager) and track. John is one ♦ of the class nuisances but an exceedingly « likeable one, at any rate. The most interest- ♦ ing thing about him, to us, is the way his ♦ nose turns purple when he thinks something ♦ is funny. He hasn ' t the faintest idea as to ♦ what he will do next year, but thinks he would ♦ like to be a street cleaner!! ♦ ANGUS CAMPBELL ♦ Soup ♦ Whenever you are aware of a great quiet- ♦ ness in the room, you ' ll know ' Soup is there. He makes an art of his quietness. However, ♦ outside with the boys h? completes a rem.ark- ♦ able change. As far as he is concerned his ♦ future is undecided but we can bet that some toothpaste company will snap him up for their ads when they get a look at his smile. Soup I has dark brown hair that is always falling in I his eyes, giving him a strained look. He pals t with Rich Sarrey, Tim McCarthy, and ♦ McGarry — the Lincoln Street gang. He was a i member of the Science Club back in the days J when Tex Houston was at the head. Soup ♦ has an individual way of clipping his words ♦ when he talks that is quite intriguing. Liked by everyone for his dry i-emarks. EDWARD PALAYMA Eddie Good old Eddie! This poor fellow was bothered to death by a certain tease, who sat behind him in history! Eddie is a good-na- tured kid, even if he doesn ' t look very hard for his Hirtory book! He is the strong man of the class and takes a mighty swing with much gusto at a baseball. Sometimes he doesn ' t connect — but when he does — WOW ! I Eddie has a funny way of swaggering around with his chin thrust out and say Huh? in a challenging tone. He is very popular with the boys and that is enough to make the girls admire him. He plans to further his education at Textile School. GEORGE GAY Duke Du]:e is a quiet sort of person noted for his pleasantness as an usher at the State. As- semblies don ' t seem to interest Duke and he think.s the jokes are terrible — anj vay he ' d rather sleep! Looks a lot like his sister Flor- ence and has a nice smile. In his Freshman year he was manager of the Track team and has always been interested in and done well in that sport. His capability caused him to be elected to the Sophomore Hallowe ' en Party Committee and he accounted for a considerable part of the success of that function. He was enrolled among the members of the Science Club in his first and second years. Duke is going to Burdett ' s. Here ' s wishing him luck! RICHARD SARREY Sarrey Rich is dark and has very nice brown eyes. He was captain of the basketball team this last season and was an outstanding player. Two letters were given him in this sport and so he is a member of the S Club. Rich is a very ardent Biology student and is teacher ' s pet in that class. Boy, can he draw and sculp ! He is highly talented in that field and hopes to become a commercial artist. We hope he ' ll think of us when he is famous and in the money ! ! Naturally fun-loving and pleasant he is a great favorite with everyone. Richard always liked chemistry and if he doesn ' t go in for art, he would make a excel- lent pharmacist. RITA FOSTER Rita is a charming Commercial Course student. She has an outstanding characteris- tic — her beautiful, big brown eyes. What per- son could resist them? Besides being one of Mr. Randall ' s ofl!ice girls this year she has been a member of the Glee Club, the French Club, and the Swastika Athletic Club. The sports she participated in were basketball and hockey. Rita aspires to be a stenographer. W e know- that she will go far as she is an honor pupil and exceedingly efficient.
