Here is a picture of the cast in the Senior Play, The Meanest Man in the World. Who could ever forget the marvelous acting of Rita Coogan and Eugene Hebert in the leading roles. Remember how well Claire Lamoureux and Ken Pearson played their parts? Cal Hawkinson used a lot of force, while John Scofield and Clint Read were very humorous. Tom Kirby and Edward Franklin did very well. The play was a tremendous success, thanks to the excellent coaching of Mrs. Fogarty, our Class advisor. Last you will see before you a picture of West Warwick High School, with the new addition. What fond memories are brought back to us at its sight, and how happy were the three years we spent within its walls. We will always remember ourselves as being an Ideal Class. Lillian Quinn, '31. 20

lfill h D ' symphonious music of t e ancemakers! The great success of the first and last Frolic ever given by the Sophomore Class was due to the untiring efforts of Miss Duffy, Class Advisor, and Mr. Grinnell, who supervised the decorations. What a memorable year that was. I'm sure a tiny spot will always remain in our hearts for it. We turn next to our Junior Year, and we see ourselves on the road to our Alma Mater. This time we are jolly Juniors and our self-esteem is almost as high as that of the Seniors. And here is a picture of Room 5, the Rendez-vous for most of the Classical students. Miss Macomber, our home room teacher, did not enforce taciturnityg so we availed ourselves of that condition very easily. In our Junior year, we were dubbed the Hnoisiest class in the school, but, of course, we didn't deserve that, not much! Who could fail to recognize this picture! It's our Junior Christmas Party, and the play is The Happy Prince. There's Eugene Hebert try- ing his best to act as a statue, but who can act as a statue when in the front row there is a group of noisy boys and girls trying to make the statue laugh? Oh well, the Juniors are just living up to their reputa- tion. And look, there's a toe dancer, she is representing a swallow. fOur historian as the dancer surely was charming.-The Editorj. The play is a pantomime, being read by Clinton Read, and the participants are acting out the parts as he reads them. It was a success, but the participants were somewhat distracted by the untiring efforts of the mischievous stu- dents in the front seats. How good it is to see Miss Macomber! This shows her just as our Class President, Eugene Hebert, presents gifts to her as a parting emblem of our high esteem. She left us, and we missed her very much. And here is the last of the pictures of our Junior year. No one needs any prompting in order to be able to recognize this as our Junior Prom. How happy we all look, and what a memorable night. I'm sure we will always remember how indebted we are to Mr. Grinnell, who was our Class advisor, and, also, supervisor of the decorations. And here is the same old highway to West Warwick. Who could help knowing we are Seniors. See how dignified we look, and how high our proud heads are. Of all the years, the Senior year stands out the most. What is this supposed to be! Don't you remember how five girls started a secret society for Senior girls. Well this is a picture of Rita being 19

Iofll TALKING OVER 1931 Believe it or not -Rita Coogan and Eugene Hebert who are regarded by their classmates as the handsomest members are also our most popular. But, the intellectual approval falls on Anna Theroux. And, what is this? Lillian Quinn and Carl Hawkinson considered our flirts? Where do they acquire their technique? Florence Smith and John Moran should seek their advice as they are our most bashful members. Of course, the class of 1931 has clever, studious and witty members. No one would argue over the fact that Clinton Read isn't our cleverest, that Kenneth Graham isn't our studious, or that St. Germain isn't our wittiest. He is often quoted in Biz Whang! Then, in spare moments of gaiety and frivolity, Hawkinson and Lillian Quinn entertain themselves with a waltz to the strains of The Beautiful Blue Danube, while in the sporting field, Claire Lamoureux, Anna Theroux, John Shepherd, and Tom Kirby win the cup shooting baskets. For smart looking clothes and that sophisticated air we vote for Theresa Lefebvre. She looks to us as if she just stepped out of the Vogue. While St. Germain advertises the clothes the Princeton man shall wear. As for our unique member, John Shepherd carries that honor. Then, could any one scold our Class Angel, Walter Colvin, Baby Face, George Kresge, or sweet little Barbara Colwell? Sh-our bluifer is Verrier! Did you know that? Did you see Moran rushing around in a hurry? Yes, he's one of our busiest. While, Schofield has the happiest disposition Marion Dennigan the best smile, Bourgault, the most original, also finds time to amuse him- self by pestering others, Nat. Fuller, the noisiest, with Russell Smith as a runner up, is our most talkative, Ruth Watson, our most marcelled member and Class Bride is also our most sociableg while we regard Kenneth Pearson as our most theatrical member. No, he did not get in touch with George Cohan yet. But how about our best pals,-oh, yes, hand in hand, as we see them-here they come, St. Germain and Hawkinson. As for our favorites and specialties, we, the Class of 1931, voted unani- mously on Long's English Literature as our favorite book, as English is our pet subject. Our future depends on our earnestness in the secre- 21
