BETTY GILBERT General 425 Washington Street Typing Club (4). Betty's charming personality and gav smile have won for her the title of the most attractive girl in the senior class. Her tan Plymouth creates much excitement around school, especially when Betty wants to get somewhere in a hurry. As for romance.

RUTH GLASSER General 118 East Broad Street Where are you going my black-haired miss? Pm of! to Alaska, sir. she said. This is the reason we all saw Ruth wearing out her raccoon coat sitting in warm clas-rooms during the winter. In these days of depression we think she ought to treat her fur coat better.

GILBERT FOSTER General 1011 Rahway Avenue Collectors’ Club (2. 3, 4); Academic Committee (2); Senior Play (4); Football (3. 4); Tennis (2. V3. W4). Although a mighty hunter “Gib” often goes out of bis way to be kind to animals. In the home, he has a decided leaning toward antiques, mostly of past wars. Outdoors he engages in raising chickens, riding horseback, and growing crops. He enjoys racing through town in his blue Ford. “Gib” is a good dancer and tennis player. THOMAS FROMM General 1011 Boulevard Weather Vane (Humor Editor 4); Band (2); Senior Day Program (4): German Evening (2, 3. 4); Academic Committee (2); Senior Play (Property and Lighting Committee); Stage Committee (4); Football (2. 3. 4); Track (2. 3). Tom seems to spend most of his time trying to keep from showing off his many talents as evidenced by his refusals to tap dance, sing, or crack jokes. Our co-humor editor has a mania for drawing grotesque Mexicans and prize-fighters which often adorn our blackboards and scare innocent teachers out of a year's growth. JANE FULLERTON College Preparatory 237 Sylvania Place Although for the past few months Jane has deserted us for Linden Hall, we still claim her as a member of our class. We remember her as an obliging, happy-go-lucky Jane tearing around corners in her big Auburn, or as a tall, slender, piquant Jane, with a marvelous ability to keep her small (very small) voice going continually. And thinking over Jane—well—she just couldn’t belong to any other school but Westfield High. We wouldn’t let her. VIRGINIA GARDNER College Preparatory 246 Seneca Place French Club (2. 3. 4); Library Council (4); Civic Committee (3); Senior Play Committee (4); Glee Club (3); Annual Committee (4). “Ginna's” pet saying is “One learns by asking questions,” which probably accounts for her reputed inquisitiveness. Her passion is the movies. Ginna” keeps the French 111 class in a perpetual state of good humor with her infectious giggle, created over nothing at all. SHIRLEY GAULT Commercial 617 Embree Crescent Typing Club (2); Annual Committee (Chairman 4). If you saw an efficient person dashing around from Mr. boose to the typing-room, from the typing-room to Mr. Foose the first semester, it was Shirley. We ought to hang a shingle in a convenient place saying, Shirley Gault, stenographer and typist; willing to work at all times; work neatly and correctly done.” 24 f,-

DANIEL GOODFRIEND General 409 Downer Street Baseball (2. W3. V4): Basketball (2, 3, W4); Football (2. 3. V4). It certainly is good to have such a “happy-go-lucky attitude about things such as Dud” offers. His ability in sports is only one of his outstanding achievements. Two of his hobbies are sleeping and eating, but we won’t hold that against him. He really is a regular fellow as many know. It is now rumored that Dan is trying to earn a letter from Dan Cupid. STANFORD GOODMAN College Preparatory 845 Boulevard Latin Club (3, 4): Weather Vane (3, 4); Glee Club (2): Debate Club (2. 3. 4); Academic Committee (2); Finance Committee (3); Holiday Plays (2, 3, 4); Football (2, 3). Meet the class politician. One of our ablest debaters, Stan snares unsuspecting students into violent arguments about current events. His career in Latin class has branded him the future Cicero. Though he has often worn the toga, Stan prefers green suits and ties that clash. JANE GORDON College Preparatory 229 Dudley Avenue French Club (2. 3, 4); Mask and Mime (2, 3. 4); Debate Club (4); Forum (3); Soccer (3): Tennis (4); Annual (4): Civic Committee (3); Holiday Plays Committee (3); Senior Play (Stage Manager); Nomination Committee (4); Mask and Mime Play Committee (4). Jane is one of our most talkative seniors, but she is going to make good use of this evil as she intends to become a lawyer. She loves to argue and spends much of her time debating. JANET GOULD College Preparatory Bayonne French Club (2. 3. 4); Orchestra (4); Mask and Mime (2. 3, 4): Library Council (2, 3); Debate Club (4); Athletic Council (4); Tennis (4); Civic Committee (3); Senior Play Prompter). An attractive smile and sunny disposition characterize Janet. Always ready to help, she saw her efforts rewarded in our class play when she acted in the capacity of prompter. We predict that Janet's scholastic ability and winning personality will take her a long way at Wellesley. LORRAINE GREINER College Preparatory 206 Maryland Avenue Red Cross Council (2); Spanish Club (3); Forum (4); Senior Play (4); Basketball (2); Volley Ball (2). Lorraine is that vivacious-looking brunette whom we see at all school dances. Her sweet personality has made her liked not only by her friends, but by all who come in contact with her in her many activities. We hear that she is one of the girls who aspire to go to X. J.
