THE QUIVER 21 BURTON HOWARTH Bert” came to us from Maine. He is to be an engi' neer in future years. He will most likely be an electrical engineer for his knowledge of electricity and mathematics is vast. He is holding high rank in mathematical circles in our beautiful school along with architectural ability which not everyone can acquire, so he had an advantage over us. We are glad to send Bert into the engineering field, and proud to say that he was a loyal member of dear old 1930. Junior Play (3). Musical Comedy (4), Business Club (4). DOROTHY KANE Here comes “Dot,” one of the charming members of our class. Her kind disposition and pleasant smile have won her many friends. “Dot’s” motto is “It pays to tell the truth, as she knows from experience. If you ask her, she ll tell you the story, too. Her life's ambition is to be a nurse, so don't be surprised if you see her in one of our greatest hospitals. Best of luck, “Dot!” Business Club (4), Quiver Board (4). WALTER KARCZMARCYZK Hail to our class artist! Walter, the quiet, the unobtrusive. Only those who are in his art classes know Walter as he really is, an entertaining companion and a true friend. His enthusiasm for his work shines forth there, and sheds its light on his fellow art students, kindling them to like heights. For four years Walter's talented fingers and brain have produced drawings and posters to decorate our halls, advertise our plays, and add to the humor of the Quivfk. Walter is also interested in other subjects, his chief one being a cute, little brunette. Yes, we believe she’s a Senior! Sits in Room 12, doesn't she, “Walt?” Well, anyway, we can safely predict a long and successful career of honor and brilliancy in the art world for Walter. GcxxJ luck! Quiver Board (4), Glee Club (4). DOROTHY K Ell LEW Quiet, reserved, and unperturbed is our Dorothy “Dot” has been very active in the social circles of W. H. S. during the past four years, and she has held a number of positions, including the secretaryship of the Class of 1930. “Dot's” mast intensely pursued subject is chemistry and one may, at any time of the school day, see “Dot pondering over chemistry “why's and wherefore's.” Our class will no doubt miss the sincerity with which “Dot served her different posts, and we have a feeling that “Dot will succeed at whatever she attempts.

Although jollity is a true characteristic of this alluring maiden, nevertheless, beneath that aspect of merrymaking her more intimate associates find the qualities of a true friend, eager and ready to help in a time of need. Worries fly from Mary just as water slides from a duck's hack. Her motto is Let tomorrow take care of itself.” Mary's friendly attitude, her tact, and fine ability to make friends will go far in aiding her to attain the height of her ambitions. Library Club (1) (2), Basketball, Volley Ball. BEATRICE HOARD Bea” Who is that girl with the red checks? Why, that's our Bea,” whose pleasing disposition is known to everyone. Her black curly locks are the envy of all the girls. Bea” has the distinction of always having been seen wearing a smile. Not withstanding the fact that Bea is a go xl basketball player, she also excels in taking dictation. We do not know what she intends to do after she leaves us, but, nevertheless, we wish her the best of luck in whatever she may undertake. Basketball, Glee Club (4), Quiver Board (4), Musical Com- ALICE HOWARD What's all that commotion? Behold! Just lively Sis Howard and her friends having a jolly good time. Eyes of blue. Golden hair, entrancing dimples, and a most carefree disposition have won popularity for this young lady. A good scholar and the most loyal of friends. Alice has won fame also as a basketball player. We don't know her plans for the future, but we hope it will be in Rhode Island State. Basketball, Student Council (1), Library Club (2), Senior Dance Committee (4). PHILIP HOYLE “Phippy” Despite the fact that Phippy” is so tiny, he represents the golden maxim that silence is golden,” which darkens his prospects as a member of the World Court of Arbitration in 1950 or so. However, Phippy” may become an archeologist since that profession requires work and less talk. Phippy lost his great opportunity as a basketball star, because of a severe injury to his shoulder, which he received in football. We are quite sure that Fate holds no such drawbacks for him in the future. He is a quiet home-loving man, and if one can conceive of him diligently studying his algebra by the fireside, any night of the week, that one has a true picture of our Phippy.” Football (4), Baseball (4), Orchestra (1) (2), Student Council (3), Public Speaking Exhibition (2). edy (4), Business Club (4).

CHARLES KOURY Charles is one of our quiet, business-like boys, who makes the best of his time studying. He could succeed in any enterprise with little effort but has not any real aim in view. Charles has developed a great deal of knowledge during his four years with his class and he displays his knowledge in his tests. He can be an able chemist because he loves to break up material things to find out what they are made of. Maybe he will find a way to break up the material atoms. He is faithful to his class and we hope to see Charles holding a high rank after graduation. Glee Club (4).
