2H THE QUIVER ELIZABETH JACKMAN O'LOUCHLIN Quiet sweet and demure is our “Bebe. A true and loyal pal, and although “Bebe, may he considered one of our quietest girls those who know her do not think so. “Bebe has won a countless number of friends during her four years sojourn here. With her winning smile, and her shy air we are sure that “Bebe” will win her way through the world. Best wishes go with you, “Bebe. Musical Comedy (4), Dramatic Club (1). Library Club (2) RAYMOND JOSEPH O'ROURKE Our Class President deserves much praise for being at the head of such an illustrious group as the Class of 1930. Ray was only recently acclaimed as one of the best defensive players in basketball that the schoolboy teams of Rhode Island have ever had, and has proved this by being chosen captain. Quiet, reserved, sophisticated that is our Ray. We are well informed that he is very much interested in Franklin possibly but not probably, Dean Academy! Due to his quietness, Ray absolutely refuses to discuss the matter. Baseball (1) (2) (3) (4). Basketball (2) (3) (4), Class Officer (4), Student Council (2) (3), Junior Prom Committee GLADYS PARK An industrious worker. “Glad will be seen every day going home with a “load of bcxiks under her arm, and when we say load,” we don't mean one or two either. Gladys has two of the greatest assets that can be attained in the course of four short years; they are perserverance and promptness. Gladys, we must admit is quite shy, but we know that when she goes to Ohio University that she will acquire a great many friends, as she did here. We are all pleased to know that Gladys is to continue her education and wish her all the success in the world. Dramatic Club (1) (2). Library Club (1). PAULISON Who is that laughing down the corridor? Why, it's our Mike” flirting with one of the fairer sex. “Mike” comes all the way from Manville, the only real tour between Woonsocket and Providence. Mike’s” ambition is to become a star in the big leagues. He has showed up very well for W. H. S. on the diamond and we are sure that if he tackles his future work the way he does baseball, he will succeed in whatever work he takes up. Baseball (3) (4).

THE QUIVER 27 IDA MIJNDY Here is another of our Slatersville sharks. Ida is very distant and serene, and we have not been able to reach the confident and friendly side of her during her four years with us. We suspect this young miss has some secret desire. She will never tell anyone her ambitions. She is studious, as her good reports will show. Yes, Ida has always possessed the good habit of keeping her eyes on her books, and in her case, she has profited by it. Volley Ball, Public Speaking Exhibition (3). CATHERINE TERESA MURRAY If you see a vivacious little, rather talkative creature with lovely waves of hair which we cannot bring ourselves to designate “red,” you may be sure it is “Kit. We are sure of the success of the Quiver this year, because Catherine has already proved her worth on the Quiver Board of 1929. “Kit's” success in chemistry is well known, and we envy the facility with which she learns formulas and all the other knowledge pertaining to that subject. With a high standing in all her studies, “Kit is often a source of information about the morrow’s homework or what the answer was in last period’s test. We are assured of Catherine's success at R. I C. E., and wherever else she may go. Quiver Board (3) (4), Student Council (3), Library Club (1) (2). lunior and Senior Play Committees (3) (4), Basketball. RITA JOAN NEVILLE Rosy cheeks, sparkling eyes, a winning smile, cheerful and always ready to look at the bright side of things and we have Rita! Here is a miss who certainly can play basketball, and we don't mean maybe. She is like a streak of lightning, one minute, with us and next minute, she s gone. Rita is uncertain about any future vocation, but we wouldn't be surprised to hear of her as one of our most prominent “gym teachers. The best ot luck, Rita! Basketball, Library Club (1) (2). JOHN J. O'DAY Our belligerent leader of the world-famous O'Day’s Daiseys,” the heretofore unbeaten basketball team. It dix’S not require a great deal of effort for John to make his presence known—all he has to do is budge. John has been our big man both on the gridiron and here in class. W H. S. will surely miss John a great deal when he leaves for parts unknown. John has not yet designated his intentions after graduating. No matter what he does we are certain of his success.

Why, of course, it is Dot, and everybody wonders why she never pays any attention to the boys at school. Perhaps a certain young gentleman in North Smithfield can tell us. Dot may appear quiet to anyone who does not know her but her personal friends have reason to think differently. Student Council (2), Library Club (1). JOHN LEO PLANTE Red” A pest? No. John is anything but that. In accordance with his parallel of the auburn locks, John has It, because everyone claims him as a friend and, strange to say, even the teachers enjoy his illuminating presence! For some mysterious reason Red is always absent on Friday. You will find him on the Providence bus in the company of a young lady. It’s a nice long ride, isn’t it John? Doubtless we will hear of John as a future owner of theatres. Best wishes, “Red!” Musical Comedy Committee (4), Business Club (4), Student Council (1). EMILIENNE MARIE PRATTE “Her curls adorned her face with tiny ringlets and she wore a flower in her hair. Who doesn't know this sweet, quiet miss? In her four years with us she has won her way into the hearts of all. Emilienne is always ready for a laugh, and she has given much joy wherever she has been. Clouds are never gray when Emilienne is near. With her black wavy hair, brown eyes, and irresistible smile to comfort a soul, who could be lonely? We do not know whether she is inter-ested in athletics in general, or in a particular hero of a team. We would not be surprised to hear in later years that Emilienne was the originator of a course in “School Spirit. Senior Play (4), Basketball, Quiver (4). RAYMOND RABIDOUX For two years Ray has held down the position of right end on the W. H. S. football team, and how well he has carried out his duties is known to all who have seen him play on the gridiron. “Ray is a champion in chemistry and typewriting. Mr. Murphy is thinking seriously of posting “Ray's record for breaking test-tubes as a mark for others to shoot at. It seems that Ray’s knowledge of the constituents of gun-powder is excessive but according to Mr. Murphy its all wet. Anyway, here's luck to you, Ray. Football (3) (4).
