A., Executive Board; Traffic Squad; Chorus; Vaudeville; Foo tball, Co-Captain; Baseball; Track; Class President, ’45, ’46. Jim is that good-looking gUy, a little bit shy, who was dynamite on the football field. He was also dynamite with the fair damsels who gazed with longing eye in his direction. His potential All- American toe booted the team to victory in many a tight spot. DOROTHY MARY HICKEY Radcliffe College Activities: Honor Roll; Traffic Squad; Chorus, Equipment Manager; Vaudeville; Red Cross; Library Club; Dramatic Club; Thrift Association.

Bob, with the pleasant smile and the even disposition, can always be counted on to give a friendly greeting in passing. He is an extraor¬ dinarily good tennis player and no laggard on the track.

S., Barbs is blessed with a cute figure and a pleasing voice. She came to us from Newton at the beginning of her senior year and has proved that she possesses natural acting ability.

A staunch supporter of both the orchestra and band, Marion has really been one of the mainstays of the musical life of the school. Her fine voice has added greatly to chorus and her piano playing be¬ tween acts of the vaudeville shows has been most distinctive. Her graciousness has made her one of the nicest girls in the class. Here’s to you. Mar. We appreciate all you’ve done. FRANCIS PAUL HERLIHY Boston University Activities: Vaudeville; Traffic Squad; Red Cross; Football. Two hundred pounds of muscle and brawn describes Head, a human dynamo on the football field. When not giving his all to win for dear old W. H.

There’s a grin on her face and a happy word in her mind; she has poise and is charmingly likable.

r 18 ABERJO? [A . 1946 LEONARD ALBERT LANDRY United States Nary Lennie, the strong silent type, is quite appealing to the opposite sex — especially a certain little blonde. Since hockey is I ennie’s favorite pastime, he feels very much at home on skates. Like all his brothers, he is Navy-bound and we know that the Navy will welcome him next summer. VIRGINIA LOVEJOY Connecticut College Activities: Honor Roll; Student Council; Red and Black, Editor, Co-Editor; Aberjona; Class Play; Class Play Committee; Vaudeville; Aberjona Club; Thrift Association; Basket¬ ball, Manager; Field Hockey, Captain; Cheer Leading. Ginny of the blithe spirit is one of the most animated and best- liked seniors. With her many and varied interests, she has excelled in sports, sociability, and scholarships. Ginny has natural gifts of leadership and executive ability. ROGER HENRY LATHAM Boston University Activities: Traffic Squad; Chorus; Football; Basketball. Spider, a runner-up with Swanee for being the tallest boy in the class, has distinguished himself with a superior brand of football and friendliness to match. He is also no mean basketball player. Roger is a really great guy and can count the whole senior class among his friends. IRENE LUNDIN Curry College Activities: Chorus; A. A.; Vaudeville. Ever sin ce Irene returned to us in her sophomore year, she has. been famous for her beautiful handmade sweaters. She is also famous for her lovely smile and her ability to look nice always. With your determination, we know you will get all the things you go after in life, Irene, including that California trip. PHYLLIS LINDBERG Beverly Hospital Training School Activities: Chorus; Vaudeville; Library Club. Phyl, the petite and sweet, is one of the most genial girls we know. Her sparkling enthusiasm makes her fun to be with. ’Tis true that the nicest things come in small packages, and in this case the most dynamic do, too. KATHERINE EILEEN MacISAAC Kathleen Dell School Activities: Chorus; Vaudeville. That pretty, petite, pert blonde with the appealing voice has been a mainstay in Chorus for four years, and in Vaudeville for two years. Denie plans to attend Kathleen Dell School, and we know she will be a great asset to any office, as a secretary, unless some music scout discovers her first! FRANK BROWN LIVINGSTONE Harvard University Activities: Honor Roll; Red and Black; Science Club; Math Club; Hockey. Frank is one of the more reserved members of the senior class with a combination of brains and a sense of humor — pretty good proof of a pretty good guy. Frankie’s size makes him one of the fastest wings on the hockey team, and he really knows how to handle a puck. RICHARD LEONARD M. cNEILL Massachusetts State College Activities: Hockey, Class Play. When not playing a good hard game of hockey, Mac can be found ice-fishing in the winter, and fishing in the nearby lakes and streams in the summer. No doubt this love of fishing is what gives him that meditative manner which is so very intriguing. Let’s hope the days ahead at Mass State will help him get a line on the best in life. Pull in a big catch, Mac.
