PORiPfthl m liiaii 1 RUTH M. DORENBAUM “Ruthie” Ruth is that neat girl with the solemn, though thoughtful, look in her eyes. Although never outstanding in class activities, we have often wondered what we would do if she were not here. We’d be absolutely Ruthless! Northwest School. Girls’ League; Music Committee; Ingleside Club. Bookkeeper. GEORGE DUBROW “Georgie” George is the sustained pedal-note of quiet industry in the Weaver symphony. He gets his pleasure with the violin and his exercise with the cymbals. Between times he ambushes the faculty for photographs. We have heard that he has time left over after that, but we won ' t discuss that now, please. Northwest School. A. A.; French Club; Honor Society; Inter-High School Orchestra; Concertmaster of Senior Orchestra; Chemistry Club; Senior Choir; Boys’ Club; Senior Glee Claib; School Band; Junior Usher; Editoria’ Board of Class Book. Never tardy. Lawyer or Druggist. LILLIAN DUNN “Lill” Incessantly occupied with thoughts reaching to New Britain of (.?), “Lill” has found little time to devote to us. The aloofness with which she goes her placid way in and out of class is but a cloak which hides our real “Lill.” Northeast School. Girls’ League; A. A.; C. H. L. S.; Senior Choir; A Capella Choir; Senior Glee Club; Senior Orchestra. William and Mary. Teacher. JACK FALLERMAN “Jake” “Jake” is one of the quiet fellows of whom we have so many. He is forever revolting on the subject of homework, probably because he works after school hours. Northeast School. Senior Choir. Never tardy. Connecticut State Col¬ lege. [ 16 ]

Is ' |«te,AveRljjj (b|( jRPORiEAhl MORRIS CUTLER “Cutlets” “Cutlets” Cutler was always a joy to the more “rambunctious” students in 240. His entry usually stirred up a loud cry of greeting. “Cutlets” always unrlcrstood all the latest steps and the newest styles in tires. Holcomb Street School. A. A.; Boys’ Club; Track Team; Interclass Soccer. LAURA LEE DARDEN “Lee” Laura has not given many of us opportunity to get acquainted with her, although many of her friends know that she certainly can play jazz better than some of the much-advertised players. Yet we all know she is a con¬ scientious student who does her work faithfully; perhaps that is one of the reasons why we see so little of her. Northwest School. Girls’ League; Inde Club; A. A. Boston Conserva¬ tory of Music. Piano Teacher. ANTONIO DiLORENZO “Tony” Tony, in our colloquial language, is a “regular guy.” He is one of Weaver’s best sports. President of the class, president of the A. A., vice- president of the Honor Society — among other things, he has been success¬ ful in running for office. Virtue rewarded. Brown School. A. A., President; Honor Society, Vice-President; Chem¬ istry Club; German Club; Junior Usher; Baseball; Basketball; Football; President of Class; Ring Committee. ELEANOR A. DiPRATO “El” Eleanor is one of our most pleasant classmates, always neat, helpful, and cheerful. She is a loyal rooter at the football games, which leads us to wonder if it is the game or the “heroes” that attract her. Holcomb Street School. A. A.; Girls’ League; Ingleside; Girls’ Business Club; Inde Club; Class Book Business Board; Testatrix; Ring Committee; Nominating Committee for Officers. Private Secretary. [ 15 ]

laiflAven: PORJEfthI RUTH FARBER “Ruthie” Though one of the more quiet girls in class, Ruth manages to have fun in her hours of recreation. Her recitations in democracy and chemistry show that she spends at least a few hours on her homework — hence, ; double promotion. Northwest School. A. A.; Girls’ League; Chemistry; Girls’ Leaders Corp. Nurse. T. BRENDAN FARRELL “Reggie ’ “Reggie” is the gigolo of our class. What a “hoofer”! This great boy football star has often been seen “smearing” erstwhile secondary men of opjtosing teams on the green turf of Batterson Fielil, but has just as often been seen in a certain car with a certain millionairess. The class needs more of his cheerful humor. Northwest School. Chemistry Club; A. A.; Football Squad; Reception Committee; Tie Committee. SYLVIA E. FEINSTEIN “Syl” Sylvia, though quite diminutive, is an excellent dancer. With her, the fellow who likes to walk on other people’s feet hasn’t a chance. Sylvia’s present ambition is to grow about four inches. Northeast School. A. A.; Girls’ League; Choir; Girls’ Debating Squad; “Lookout,’ Typist. Stenographer. DANELLA R. FEITELBERCw “Dinny” “Dinny” is one of the quieter girls in the class, but there is no better companion than she; which goes far to give her a warm place in the hearts of her friends. Northeast School. Girls’ League; A. A.; Choir. Stenographer. [ 17 ]
