10 THE SEMAPHORE LOUISE CUSHING And thus she walks among her swains — a princess. Tlie best dancer at S. H. S. and another reason for P.rockton and Randolph thinking Stousliton ' s a nice place — even Brocktonian u i- dertakers, eh Louise Louise he- ir gs to Glee Club. Dramatic and French Club, was Assistant Manaser of Girl ' s Basketball 2 and 3. FRANCIS DALY The scientific mind is not eas ' ly understood. Francis or Red as th fellows call him is -uite a huniori t in the dr.v varietv. His inath?mat ' cal and scientific abilities make up for his sometimes comical spelling. ELLA DAVIS She trips the light fantastic. Ella is an excellent dancer and can chew more of a certain prohib- ited if delicious substance than any- one else we knmv. favorite sport is dancing. FLORENCE FROST ' Tis beauty truly blent she seems to me. ' ' Tirttsie was a very charminc usherette at the Senior Play. Slie U a member of (Jlee Club 4 and is also going to be a nurse. More heart-trouble for those patients I MILDRED GAY Honest labor bears a lovely face. Millie is a very i|uiet person but popular with all her classmates. She hopes to become a private secre- tary. GocaI luck. Mildred ! LUCILLE GEMME Believe me if all those en- dearing young charms. Stoughton High School ' s prettiest red-head. She ' s going to be a nurse — a lot of patients are going to have heart-trouble we ' re afraid! Lu is a member of the Glee Club, was usher at the Senior Play and was on Dance and Refreshment Com- mittee 2. DICK GRIFFIN The man who blushes is not quite a brute. We always considered Dick a fel- low who could talk longer on any given topic than anyone else in tlie class, but this year we were startled ly his going dramatic on us. Be- sides wearing unusual tie arrange- ments he may anytime be seen per- using three Dramatic Scliool cata- logues. He really plans to become an actor. He has attended Glee Cluh 1, 2. 3, 4 (President 4) : Dra- ma tics 2, 3, 4: Football 3. 4 (Let- ters) ; Track 1. He was on the Hallowe ' en Committee. JOHN JOYCE True modesty is self -effac- ing. John is one noiseless fellow we don ' t know much about except that his own gang appreciate his quiet- ness more, than the loud bluff of others. JENNIE KARONEWSKI Virtue is like a rich stone, best simply set. • ' e inie is another of these rather mii ' jt folks, who. thougli usually t ' most worthwhile, make it a dif- ficulty to know very much about tlipm. Jennie on occasion, ho vever. can be i)leasantly conversational and we learn that .she is studying hard to attain her goal, that of becoming a eood secretary. We think you have the making, Jennie ! In her Junior year she attended French club. ELIZABETH F. KELLEY All things about her are bright and gay. Elizabeth has a host of friends, a ready smile and is famous for her funny sayings. She is a member of Glee Club, a Librarian, Assistant Hockey Manager 3, and Hockey Man- ager 4. She intends to go to busi- ness school. ALFRED KEMP But for mine own part it was Greek to me. Kempy is f md of hiking — at least we see h ' m hurrying down Perry Avenue fairly often. His BARBARA KENNEDY Fair ivas she to behold, that maid of seventeen sum- mers. Barbara can make luscious choc- olate cake and write good poetry. She doesn ' t know what she wants to be but she ' d rather dance than eat. She plans to attend a business school. Glee 1 ; Semaphore 1. 2, 3. 4 (Co. Lit. Ed. 3. 4) : Dramatic 2. 3: French 2, 3 : Beano Prize Com, 4, JOSEPH MARTIN As merry as the day is long. Joe is short and dark and as the girl ' s say sorta cute. His broad grin is quite devastating and he uses it freely. His entliusiastic bass besides glorifying the Glee Club for four years, compliments the South Sea Echoes. Joe is an- other of the class who is .seriously considering the stage as a career. Tile way he played Phipps the but- ler to his pal J. Quill in the Senior Play, is good evidence of his talents. He has been respectively Joke and Publicity Editor of the Semaphore. GRACE McEWAN My companions, let us be merry while we may. Grace is a member of the Glee Club and Handicraft Club. She is another Stoughton girl who intends to be a nurse. MARJORIE PHILLIPS Maiden icith meek sweet eyes, in whose orbs beauty lies. It is always interesting to look around you and wonder who will become what in a few years. We marked Marjorie for a nurse and so we weren ' t surprised when she wrote on her form that she plans to study training after Prep. School. Marjorie is very attractive and wears sport clothes as no one else can. She is usually with Tootsle and Lucille talking over such Inter- esting things. Glee Club 1, 2. 3, 4. ROSS RYDER Hoot mon, I ' m agin ' it. It ' s really a shame, small wiry lo.iking Ross (who ' se really clever) can ' t write a book listing the things he ' s a(. ainst and putting in his order of things and conditions, a la Ryder. MARY SPILLANE How brilliant and mirthful the light of her eye! Mary is very pretty and does a very nuich appreciated bit of chauf- fering around these parts. Mary is also appreciated by one sophisticated •Mr. Hill. OLIVE SULLIVAN Her eyes are sapphires set in snow. OUie is the original Beauti- ful Lady in Blue and lots of folks really thing big blue eyes are pretty n ce. we hear. Olive belongs to the (;iee Club 4. was on the Committee for Refreshments 2, and intends to be a nurse. EDITH TESSLER and silence like a poultice, comes to heal the blow of sound. Edie is a quiet dark-haired little girl, rather self-etTacing who claims that her sole ambition in life is to become a secretary. However we know that she is more than a little interested in the varied interests of the beautician. Aren ' t you Edith y Her activities were Glee Club 1. 2; fiench Club 3. ELIZABETH TROWBRIDGE A child of the forest — strong and free. Betty intends to become a beauti- cian after attending the Wilfred Academy and we thing she ' ll be a good one even though her own curls are natural. Bettv belongs to the Glee Club. MARTHA WIHANTO Silence is the perfect herald of joy! .Martha is a tall and blonde young person who always has her home- work done. She says she hasn ' t any particular ambitions but we know whatever she chooses to do. she ' ll do well. AILENE YOCAS A pean above all earthly dignitaries, a still and quiet conscience. Arlene has a cute chubby face and decided opinions about practically everything. She plays piano and usually is with Barbara Holmes. Her clubs are Glee 1, French 3. She played basketball as a Freshman. Arlene has a decided opinion about her future ; she is going to be some- body ' s secretary.

Ba-k tball 2. 4: Art i. Dramatics H. 1 : Semaphore 4. WOODROW PERRY This is the very coinage of your brain. Woodrow is a very quiet person wlio really enjoys studying and likes cluniistrv ! He studied public speak- ing under Mr. Kandall and wishes to obtain some Civil Service posi- tion. A. STRIPINIS Popularity is Power. Alfred must be a very powei-ful man if the above adage is true. .Tust one grand fellow!

S. as a Senior and altliotigli a little lonel.v at first, she has since made many fricriils. Although popular here, she appears to have interesting connec- tions in Hyde Park. CELIA KOVOLESKY Be carefree in the joys of the dance. Celia is dark-haired and rather Iiietty. We know from different sources she is extremely fond of dancing. Celia hopes to attend busi- ness college so that she nuiy be- come a stenographer. Her vocal efforts lieli)ed the Glee Club 1. 2. 3. JOE G. QUILL A modest man never talks of himself. .Joe is the (irade-A entertainer of the class. His lilting tenor voice ac- companied by tlie strains of the South Sea .flchoes Orchestra which .loe started with the assistance of .loe Martin and John Seba has been ap|)reciated by all of us. While we considered him a clever comedian, the fact that he can really handle dramatic roles was demonstrated to us when we saw him as the king in the Senior Play. Treasurer Class of ' :il in Junior year : Dramatics 3. 4 (President 4) : Semai}liore 3. 4. He plans to stud.v at Bishop Lee School (.f the Theatre so that he may go into radio work. LEO REILLY Short of stature but strongly built. Leo is anotlier son of Erin wlio gets along amiably with everyone as evinced by his ever-ready grin. WALTER WANCUS Ojie ivho debates leads an eventful life. Walter certainly does enjoy a good argument and often starts one for the fun he gets out of exasperating t!ie other part.?. BRONIE WASILEWICH What soft expression glows in those dark eyes. Bronie may have lo-st a little l)ep when Steve gi ' aduated last year but she was still gniMl euimgh to be elected a cheer leader: in fact so good that she received letters again in Hockey and in Basketliall. as she has been doing ever since her Sophomore year. Ring Committee and Hockey Banquet Conuuittee : her clubs were (;iee 1 : French 3 : Dramatic 3 : Handicraft 3, 4. Brorii ■ wants to be a beautician and if her own pretty dark hair is a testimonial of her work, she will be successful. DORIS SARRY Good things come in small packages.

The girl ' s basketball team will be fortunate if they can replace Dotty for she certainly is a capable manager.
