DAXLEL EDWARJ) COSS “SLICKER” Slicker has been in the limeligk-t ever since he entered high school. He has starred in football, baseball, and basketball, and also he is an adept participant in the arts of swimming and diving.

p:i)1tii ( r()lvx collixs “EDIE” During the icy months of the year, she does (juite a bit of skating with a certain warm friend of hers. “Edie” might be very properly termed as an all around “good sport”. She has an easy and cheery smile, and her h-ost of friends testify to this pleasing part of her makeup. Born in Cambridge, Mass., August 9, 1918. Activities: Cum Laude, Chorus. Hobbies: Skating, Dancing, Walking with Fred (Guess ?) Scholastic Intentions: Undecided. Ambition: To be a typist. ELVIRA [ILDRED COLUCCI “PATTY” “Patty” is a swell pal to everyone, and a real sport, as is evidenced when she has a hockey stick in her hands. A swell dancer, too, is “Patty,” es¬ pecially when she’s at the Rainbow Inn. Her am¬ bition is to get a good position as a secretary, and we predict that if ever the chance comes, she’ll be an asset to her employer. Born in Winchester, Mass., SeiDtember 18, 1919.

S., and he has certainly rung the bell during his short sojourn here. He seems like a quiet sort of fellow, but if you’d been present that day at the State House, you’d not hold this opinion. He takes great delight in “kidding” the underclassmen, especially the girls. A good drummer, and a good sport, George is a worthy representative of the Pine Tree State.

ELliKIDfJE G. DAVIS “K(3I KBERT” When “Eglebert” enters, he invariably makes his presence felt. His exits are equally dramatic; for instance, his walking out of Miss Mackedon’s room with a cigar in his mouth. His intelligence is astonishing both- consideiing and not considering his lack of application. He’s the lad who may be seen ringing Mr. Keeney’s doorbell at 11:59 P. M. the linal day of the ranking period, with his back work under his arm. But he comes through, and that’s what counts. Born in Cambridge, Mass., July 16, 1919. Activities: French Club, Traffic, Science Club, Dramatic Society, Interclass Basketball, Track. Hobbies: Dabbling in Chemistry, Women, Working Hard. Scholastic Intentions: Harvard Medical School. Ambition: To be able to kiss her without drooling. FRANK DeMTNICO “Better late than never” must be Frank’s motto. Whether it’s graduation, studies, or sports, he gets tirere sooner or later; and there are other examples too. “Stutz” likes the winter season, when hockey is in order, and he can be seen either at Long or at Winter Ponds. RepoiTs have it that he is not adverse to doing a little night skating also. Activities: Intramural Basketball, Baseball, Foot¬ ball. Hobbies: Bowling, Swimming, Hockey. Scholastic Intentions: Notre Dame. Ambition: To be a winner of the Indianapolis 500- mile automobile race. ROBERT LAWRENCE DONAGTIEY “lUESTY” “BROTHER” “Rusty” goes in for all things athletic in a great big way, featuring prominently in football, base¬ ball, and basketball. However, ’tis that “Rusty’s” particular love is baseball, and being a catcher, he picks the men off the bases as adeptly as he picked Jean. He also is a prominent member of the “Mil¬ lionaires,” Winchester’s contribution to minor- league baseball. Born in Winchester, Mass., December 29, 1918. Activities: Baseball ’35, ’36, Football ’36, Basketball ’35, ’36. Hobbies: All Sports. Scholastic Intentions: Aviation School. Ambition: To pilot a transport plane.
