DANTEL FREDERICK DELOREY “DAN” “DANNY” We don’t know whether to call “Dan” a traitor to our fair village or an efficient press agent. He admittedly explores in Woburn in pursuit of the elusive “she”; yet, when the pursuer is the Presi¬ dent of the Senior Class, and a power of the foot¬ ball team, maybe we should let him off easy.

Don’t be alarmed; that’s just ' Rocco DeTeso going by. “Rocky” always appears busy, but even so he manages to take enough time off to keep up his wide circle of friendships. He stars in track and cross country, but he is versatilely apt in many other things from science to the drama. Born in Italy, August 16, 1920.

MILDRED MARY DINEEN “MILLIE” The prosperity of the Bus Transportation Com¬ panies seems to be coming back since Millie has been taking frequent trips in town to see Georgie. Whether it be going- in town, trucking, square-dan¬ cing, or riding in the rumble seat, Millie is right there with bells on. She has a high rating in her studies, is a good sport, and her ambition will reach her goal. Born in Winchester, Mass., March 2, 1921.

WILLIAM J. CROUGHWELL, JR. “BILL” Locker room gossip has it that “W. J.” thought¬ fully allows “Lad” Millican to come in second and “Willie the Wolf” Kielhorn third, as regards sailing on Mystic Lake. No doubt Kielhorn will contest the assertion. It looks as if “Bill” had spread a little too much of his customary hyperbole for the school to swallow. However, except for “Bill’s” occasional exaggeration, we can’t think of another single fault of his. Our fingers are crossed. Born in West Medford, Mass., April 5, 1920.

Other times they gleam with enthus¬ iasm. But most of the time they just sparkle with happiness. For Sylvia is the happiest person we know. Movies are her passion. She is a fine stu¬ dent, a great reader and a true friend. Born in Winchester, Mass., March 27, 1921. Activities: Chorus ’35; Dramatic Society ’35; French Club ’38. Hobbies: Sleeping, Movies, Cross Word Puzzles. Ambition: To be a graduate nurse. Scholastic Intentions: P. G. Course. BRADFORD DARLING “BRAD” “DARLING” “.SLATS” One would think that Brad would have to be about five capable people to accomplish all the things he does. If he isn’t in the Chemistry Lab¬ oratory after school, you may find him out on Manchester Field flying around the track, or out on the cross country route, breezing along at a merry clip; but if you still can’t find him, you’d better give it up because he has so many different interests which take up his time, you just wouldn’t know where to start looking!

WILLIAM ANDREW DOLAN, JR, “BILT, “Bill,” connoisseur of good cars, has started his business career with a neat little faux pas. It is reliably reported that Bill bought a Ford of doubt¬ ful vintage, and after having run it ragged de¬ cided to get rid of it.

FREDERICK JAMES DONOVAN “DUN,NEE” Fred is very bashful in Winchester but when he gets to the Woburn town line his chest sticks out so that one would think he was “L’il Abner Yokum.” He doesn’t like Winchester girls but OH!, when he reaches Woburn, he isn’t loafing one minute. He hasn’t got a steady but there are many good pros¬ pects. Betty and Virginia are the best at the present time. We give them 10 to 1. Born in Winchester, Mass., May 29, 1920.
