He is a fine football and basketball player and is also an excellent hockey player. Moon is known and liked by everyone, so we predict a brilliant future for the snappiest dresser in our class. CHARLES WENTWORTH BLANCHARD TODD Born in Winchester, September 23, 1922. Pastimes: Sports, Driving. Activities: Varsity Tennis II, III, IVg Science Club IV, Hockey Club IV. Scholastic Intention: M. I. T. Ambition: That's right, you guessed it. If, as you are Walking along the street, a light blue Chevrolet sedan should whip by you, you're certain that it is Todd. If the car is filled with girls, you are sure of it. However, Todd is equally at home on skates, on a tennis court, or racing sailboats. A quiet, unassuming fellow, Todd does whatever work there is to do as quickly, quietly, and painlessly as possible. Then he turns to a camera, woodworking, or, more probable, his car!

Not only a good student and an ardent lover of sports, Finichino is an honest, clean-cut pal, a friend well worth having. But he's not as solemn as all this! If you ever want good, entertaining company, call on this boy! He's the one you're looking for!

VIOLA MARY BERTOLUCCI I vi --BUTCHH Born in Somerville, Mass., 19221. Pastime: Reading, Walking. Activities: Chorus: Glee Club. Scholastic Intentions: Hospital training. Ambition: Nurse. Vi, is one of our happy-go-lucky classmates who spends many hours reading mystery stories and talking to Dr. Alley. Her quick wit and sense of humor have made her friends, and it will help her to gain more in the professional world. Outside of the fact that her patients will probably burst their stitches at her remarks, we know that she'll be an outstanding nurse. BARBARA BRADFORD BLAKE BARBIE ' B Born in Woburn, June 6, 1923. . Pastimes: Reading, driving the Buick. . Activities: A. A.: Chorus, Dramatic Society: L'Alliance Francaise. Scholastic Intention: College -but which one? Ambition: To get a pilot's license. Most of us around school don't know Babs very well for she is rather quiet fthat is in schoolj. By the way, for those who are interested, Babs is an excellent driver, and I believe she oughvt to take up chauffeuring. Ba:bs takes her school work very seriously and many nights you can see her with midnight oil burning. She will probably be a great success for all the hard work she has put forth. Maybe, who knows, she will be one of the greatest educationalists of the day. CAROLYN BLANCHARD KAY Born in Winchester, April 22, 1923. Pastime: Perfecting rubber collars for rubber necks.

Executive Board IV: Class Play Com- mittee IIIg Dramatic Society I, II, IIIQ A. A. I, II, III, IV5 Vaudeville Show IV, A. A. Banquet Committee III. Scholastic Intentions: Simmons College. Ambition: To become a successful surgical nurse. Kay is full of the vibrancy peculiar to this carefree younger generation - it'-s indicative of a spirited nature, charmingly in accord with hair which dulls autumn leaves, and eyes which have caused a field of cornflowers to wilt in shame. We're in a critical world, but it takes no more than C. B. to I ' please the populace. Lady, you're it !
