HARRY LESLIE HULL A man’s a man for a’ that.” Class President (4). Harry, the class president, comes from Pine Tree. He is a poolroom fiend and he feels that nine o’clock is much too early an hour for him to be required to get to school. He has waded through Solid Geometry and demonstrated his scientific ability. We have learned to look for Harry and his banjo at dances and have noticed how popular his Chewy is. OSCAR JOHNSON The first and most respectable of all the arts is Agriculture.” Member of A. A. (1). Agricultural Judging Team (1-2-3-4). Member of Future Farmers of Woodbury” (3). Agriculture Prize Winner (3). Oscar is our big farmer from the Roxbury-Good Hill region. Although he is silent, he is a good scholar. In Agriculture, he has gained an enviable position, winning all manner of prizes. We get news of the enjoyable times he has in the Ag. Room. Last year he braved the dance floor and lived through it. He has done quite a bit for a bashful boy. We might even mention a Sophomore girl, if that were any of our business. All in all, we think Oscar is getting his share of fun out of life. SIGURD LOVDAL A blond, half-saintly, blue-eyed lad.” Member of A. A. (1-2-3-4). Class Treasurer (2). Magazine Club (2). Debating Club (2). Agricultural Judging Team (3-4). Basketball (4). Baseball (4). Honor Roll Club (4). Salutatorian (4). We are not informed as to the attributes of saints, but we doubt whether any true saint was ever impish, ever played basketball or ever studied agriculture. We are, however, willing to concede the phrase 'half-saintly’ to Siggy.” We salute our Salutatorian who may always be identified by a grin, a blush and a cute accent. Page Seven

RAYNALL MILTON COLEY An Irishman’s heart is nothing but his imagination.” Class Treasurer (1). Cast of The Exchange” (1). Glee Club (2). Baseball (2-3-4). Basketball (2-3-4). Class President, (3). Operetta, Bits O’ Blarney” (3). Class Vice-President (4). Cast of Operetta, The Fire-Prince” (4). Dance Committees (3-4). Mirror Cartoonist (1-2-3-4). Class Prophecy (4). Coley is our only representative of the jolly Irish race and has furnished a great deal of humor. Bill has been the Mirror cartoonist for four years. However, this is not his only accomplishment for he designs and paints scenery, plays basketball, and baseball, and renders touching ballads on the harmonica. New England has done much for this Kentuckian. For example, he can now bluff recitations. Either Coast Guard Academy or the study of draftsmanship will claim our Fire-Prince”. If things go wrong Bill, get out the old harmonica. MAUDE ELIZABETH EYRE A babe in school” is a well-spring of pleasure.” Class Vice-President (1). Class Secretary (2). Glee Club (2-3). Latin Club (2). Dramatic Club (2). Honor Roll Club (2). Operetta, Bits O’ Blarney” (3). Member of A. A. (3). Basketball (3). Secretary English Club (3) . Class Party Committee (3). Prom Committee (3). Operetta, The Fire-Prince” (4). Senior Dance Committee (4). A. A. Dance Committee (4). Class Will (4) - Here is our class baby. In the absence of rattles, the boys (especially Bob) are very willing to try to amuse her. She is quite well-behaved for an infant and cries only when you pinch her. Even then you hear only a little squeak, followed by a slap or two— a rather cute performance. Maudie” has a serious side as is proved by the fact that she regularly graces the Honor Roll. We hope she will find an I. G. A. store wherever she goes so that she will always be well fed. ROBERT FREDERICK FRAY In play, there are two pleasures for your choosing. The one is winning, and the other losing.” Member of A. A. (1-2-3-4). Baseball (1-2-3-4). Basketball (1-2-3-4). Cast of Operetta, The Fire-Prince” (4). Class Gifts (4). Bobby has been our basketball and baseball star. Without these sports he would be miserable. We are very proud of our handsome pitcher but we fear that he will regret that he didn’t allow French to make more of an impression upon him when he plays with the big leagues in France. Rudy” is supposed to be bashful but we don’t believe he always is. Page Six

STANLEY THOMAS LUSAS What I do not know bothers me.” Member of A. A. (2-3-4). Class Vice-President (2). Class Treasurer (3). Track (3). Basketball (3-4). Baseball (4). Dance Committee (4). Cast of Operetta, The Fire-Prince” (4). Secretary-Treasurer Rifle Club (4). Staff of Mirror (3-4). Valedictorian (4). In Stanley, we believe we have the germ of a genius and at the same time, that of a clown. He heads our class in scholarship and he heads our Who’s Who of curious characters in W. H. S. After he’d left us all behind in ranks he blossomed forth, not only in athletics, but in music. What would The Fire-Prince” have been like without this wise man? Pansy” may go far but his Buick won’t. M. I. T. and Engineering are going to claim Professor” next. There is one warning which we wish to give him. It’s all right for a man To be absent-minded. But his mind shouldn’t overstay It’s leave of absence.” and we might add—its leave of intentional lack of remembrance. ELIZABETH DANA MARTIN Thy modesty’s a candle to thy merit.” Latin Club (2). Dramatic Club (2). Glee Club (2-3). Vice-President of English Club (3). Operetta, Bits O’ Blarney” (3). Class Secretary (4). Member A. A. (4). Operetta, The Fire-Prince” (4). Senior Dance Committee (4). Class History (4). Reared in the shadow of this building, Elizabeth has developed into a very scholarly and cultured lady. She is very quiet and self-contained, but is capable of a fair sized giggle now and then. She is bound for either Mount Holyoke or Oberlin and after that what? Elizabeth has artistic talent and perhaps that’s a clue to her future. Although we can’t be sure what her future career will be, we are sure that our Physics-Vergil student will distinguish herself.
