EDWARD HITCHCOCK “Eddie” flaslied liis camera all ovei ' the hallowed halls of W. H. S. while making his home in Winchester. His bright good natuie and pleasant manner made him one of the best-liked members of our class. Photog¬ raphy, sailing, and swimming are his principal interests, while a certain member of the oppo¬ site sex named Trudy also be¬ longs in that class. PRISCIDLA HURD “Pris” conceals in her petite figure the capacity for many things. Good marks come fir.st, but are followed closely by Vaudeville, Thrift, Chorus, Aber- .joiia and Iie«l and Black. Smith College is eager for brains plus personality, and they are sure to get it in Pris. Drawing, es¬ pecially dogs, have held her life-long interest, but there’s one thing that bothers her; she wants to grow four more inches. ROBERT HITCHCOCK “Bob” Journeyed from the “ole home town” each Winter to en¬ rich Florida with his presence. Those who don’t know him think of Bob as a quiet sort of fel¬ low, but his more intimate friends claim a lively tempera¬ ment for him at times. Besides his interest in photography, which one would naturally ex¬ pect (being a Hitchcock), Bob also finds enjoyment in sailing and experimenting with guns. Our only complaint against Bob is that he left us too often! MARTHA JACKSON “Marty” whisked along the corridors of W. H. S. in such a way as to be always in the right spot at the right time. Her pen filled the feature page of the Ked Sind Bliiok and many pages of the Aberjona, while she also starred in field hockey and as Secretary of Thrift and President of Chorus. Her refined, yet gay, manner makes her fun to be with and a great friend to have. Marty will head for Smith if she can learn to agree with Webster in spelling. Our Seniors had some happy faces During our Spring Vacation. When asked why, they replied, “Six weeks till graduation.”

She has danced for the Vaudeville, been a long-term member of the Red Cross, a tralHc “cop,” and a member of the Dramatic Asso¬ ciation. Dancing, football games, movies, and swimming are her favorite amusements and the beaches of Maine and Cape Cod her favorite habitat. She is chiefly annoyed by people who are too sunny and cheerful in the early morning, part cularly men who sing! After gr.iduat- ing from Lasell, she ha.s a secret ambition to go to California with “Cheffie.” CAROLYN HENEBERGER “Carol” assumed a quiet, dig¬ nified role in all that claimed her attention. She dabbled in Chorus, Dramatic Societ.v, and the Red Cross. Carol’s tastes are varied among Frank Sina¬ tra, the Boston Symphony Or¬ chestra, Harry James’ records, the U. S. Navy, and sports.

BARBARA KENTON “Barb aroused the envy of all the g-irls at W. H. S. with her smooth clothes and f?olden hair, If you must call her “Per¬ oxide,” she’ll stand for it, but “Blondie” is out. As for school activities. Barb dabbled in the work of the Tralfic Squad, Aber- jona and Vaudeville. In her spare time she enjoyed bowling ' , dancing, skiing, and knitting at “The Lonely Hearts Club.’’ After giaduation. Barb has set her goal as Cornell University. RICHARD KLEBER “Dick” swept with overpower¬ ing force, in more ways than one, through the school. Coming to us from Belmont in the fall of 1943, Richard immediately made a favorable impression with his broad shoulders and wonderful physique. He was prominent on the football, bas¬ ketball and gym teams, and he also aided the cheer-leaders for a short time in 1944. Feminine hearts throbbed when this ro¬ mantic Charles Atlas passed by. RUTH KERRICAN “Keri ' y” bi ' ought sunshine into the halls of W. H. S. with her bright smile and cheerful “Hi!” Besides dancing in the Vaude¬ ville for three years, Ruth was a member of the Cum Laude So¬ ciety, Chorus, and basketball squad. Outside school, Kerry just loves ice-skating, roller¬ skating, and anything Spanish. In fact, after graduating from Boston College Intown, she hoi)es to become a professional i( ' e-skatei ' and outdo Sonja Henie. Kerry will surely skate right into success. BOB KNOETTNER “He-man Bob” distinguished ICmself by being the biggest boy in the senior class. He’s the kind of a guy you’d hate to meet alone in a dark alley. Besides being a member of the Traffic Squad, Bob played hockey. His other favorite sports are sailing and golf. After graduation. Bob plans to join the Navy and see the world. SARAH KRINER “Sally Lou” is remembered as a really “smooth” member of the senior class. She attracts the Romeos with her dazzling smile and peaches-and-cream complex¬ ion. but Bob Hope is the person she’d really like to meet. Sally busied herself in Chorus, Red Cross, and on the Red and Black, besides proving to be indispens¬ able on Class Play and Vaude¬ ville Committee. Horseback rid¬ ing and skating are her favmr- ite pastimes, and Bucknell Uni¬ versity her future hope. FRANCIS LAMBIASE “Buddie” has been strictly on the “steady” beam at W. H. S. The little Green Hornet and his convertible were the envy of everyone. Bud is not only a smooth dancer, he also accentu¬ ates the charms. Football came first in his line of activities, then Chorus, Traftic, Vaudeville, and S. C. Advisory Board. Contract¬ ing claims his future, and after driving to N. H. and back, be dreams of being “Gay” for the rest of his life. JOAN LAVERTY Joanie” expends most of her energy talking vivaciously about everything from boys to men. She possesses that inimitable combination of sparkling blue eyes and dimples. Her bound¬ less enthusiasm added much to Red Cross, Chorus, and the Ab- erjona staff. Eating, dancing, and just loafing are her favorite pastimes. Joanie looks forward to being a Cadet Nurse, but in her spare time she’d like to write a book. VIOLET LAWSON “Vi” glittered as she passed by with her long, bond hair and sparkling eyes. After gradua¬ tion from Katherine Gibbs School, she should make some lucky employer a marvelous sec¬ retary. Now, all sports hold fasc¬ ination, but, for future thrills, she’ll wish on globe-trotting. Going to bed early annoys “Vi- die”; what a waste of valuable time! 21
