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).

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).

We are very grateful to New Haven for presenting us with this charming personality. Norma has made many true friends in her short sojourn here, and we are certain she will continue to do so in the future. It is said that music hath charms. Such is the case, here, for Norma is an accomplished musician and intends to further her study in this art. We know she'll succeed for she is such a conscientious girl. Musical Comedy (4). ERNEST SALLEY “Bill” is our champion chemist. He is one of Mr. Murphy's best test-tube bouncers. This feat takes much practice, but under the tutoring of our coach he soon became an expert. He is always looking forward wanting to know what to do next. Besides being studious-like, he is a royal rooter and follows his team into neighboring states by any means of transportation. “Bill has great track ability hidden away from our sight. We hope that he may develop this and become one of our future Olympic Athletes. We do not know what fate has in store for our blond boy, but we hope that our class may reach a hand toward helping him into a successful future life. Business Club (4), Orchestra (2), Broadcaster (2). RUTH SHAVER Take one teaspixinful of gaiety, a cup bubbling over with fun, measureless popularity, one heaping tablespoon of smiles and mix them thoroughly. Stir over the fire of viva-ciousness, and spread over the top of brown curls and place in the back seat of Room 11. This is the recipe by which you recognize Ruth. But Ruth also has a serious side, which no doubt is the better part, for she is one of Miss Cass’ best pupils in stenography. Ruth's plan for the future is rather uncertain, but we hope that she will be Somebody’s Stenog. Good-luck Ruth, and may your employer be tall, dark, and handsome. Business Club (4), Basketball.
