THE QUIVER H I.FO COTNOIR Laugh and-the class laughs with you: stay and you stay alone. Whatever room Leo is in you may be sure that you will never miss him. lor his favorite seat is the one directly in front of the teacher. But I will hasten to sav that he does not sit there of his own accord. On the contrary, he sits there because h is too noisy. Leo is one of our wittiest and iolliest boys, lie has attractive brown eves, black hair, a bronl smi'e and a h Ho for everyone. He is an expert typist, and he and his inseparable companion. Henry, may be seen every night after school in Room 21. Considered a good-looking boy. neat dresser and having a pleasing personality, Leo has made a host of friends throughout his sojourn at Woonsocket High School. We understand that there is a so-cia! attraction in Room 11. but. Shi we mustn't make Leo blush. Whatever he may undertake, we. the class of 1931. know that he will be a success. Good luck. Leo.

10 THE QUIVER ALICE E. COLLINS Silence is virtue. Alice is most assuredly the quietest girl of the Senior Class, but although she seems so unassuming she is 1iKed by every on’. The only time we know that Alice is around is when v” h’ar h»r recite in class. She is very efficient in all her subjects, and the class of 3 1 is glad to claim her as a member By the way. have you ever heard that she is a frequent visitor at Framingham? We wonder why? Alice intends to be a nurse, and here's wishing her success in her future undet taking. Programme Committee for the Junior Play Candy Com mirtee for th’ Senior Play 1931.

That's our Dick one of the fore most character interpreters on the school stage. Dick won nr’at oopularitv in both Senior and Junior Class productions by his cleverness. As Art Editor of the QUIVER his woiks speak for themselves Dick's favorite study is Latin, which bv th» wav. is a very unusual predilection.

FRANCES LORETTA CONDON Studious of ease, and fond of humble things. What one notices about Fran is her unfailing modesty and the steadv quiet persistence with which she seeks out the wisdom of the ages in class. Behind her cloak of reserve, however, she carries a deep and tolerant sense of humor and a iudgment as discriminating as you will find anywhere. Fran.” we hear, intends to be somebody's stenog in the near future. Well, we are certain that you will succeed. Fran, and now the class of 31 wishes you the best of luck. Business Club (4).

WALTER COREY The pen is mightier than the sword If it's a walking dictionary or a verbal book report of the latest mystery story, just hail Walt. He s bound to give you satisfaction n that line. Walt has aroused the envy of many by his ability to write novels of such an adventurous and rapid fire type that they have caused one critic to term them as being able to raise the hair of a bald headed man What we can't remember is when Walt didn t wear a smile or didn’t have an encouraging Word about th? day s algebra. Walt looks like a possible successor to Zane Grey, but he refuses to commit himself on that point. Well, here s success to you. Walt.’ QUIVER Board (4), Athletic Council (4).

12 THE QUIVER WALTER DANKO What is worth doing is worth doing well. When a teacher reads a paper containing words ponderous enough to grace the President’s message to Congress or the Wickersham Report, she may safely surmise that it r. Walt’s. Cleveland's baker boy grew up to be a promi nent heavyweight fighter, but we arc certain that Woonsocket's will be a lexicographer or a linguist, or at least a college professor. Although Walt is usually the quiet est boy in the class, his occasional dry remarks at unexpected moments often send the class into an uproar. We have all enjoyed your witticisms. Walt. and join in wishing you a happy and prosperous future. QUIVER Board (4). Editor-in-Chief. Debate (4). RUTH DONALDSON O. thou are fairer than the evening air. Clad in the beauty of a thousand stars.” That tall, graceful girl with the smile on her face? Ruth Donaldson. Synonymous with modernism is Ruth, sometimes known as Fluffy.” She greatly admires Joan Crawford, whom she resembles a great deal. Tall and slim, with large brown eyes and curly hair. Ruth looks striking. Having a good sense of humor. Ruth is always enjoying herself, as does everyone else in her company. Library Club (2). Glee Club (4). Senior Business Club (4). Senior and Junior Candy Committee. CHARLES DOONAN A boy with a host of friends. Who strives and gains the ends. Charlie” is a great all-round athlete. Whether it is a long shot, a timely hit or a slashing tackle that is needed. Pat” always comes through in a pinch. His long toms at opportune moments thrilled hundreds of basketball fans, while his sterling defensive work on the gridiron had much to do with the success of the football team. And that was Pat playing second base last season and not Rogers Hornsby. as many opposing teams claimed. We do not know Pat's ambition, but we are certain that after his toilsome career as dues collector of Room 19. he will never become a bill collector! Best of luck. Pat”! Baseball (3) (4).

JOHN VINCENT DOYLE It's his manner and his smile That make him worth while.” John is one of the larger members of our class, but he's just as big-hearted. This lad has a skin and complexion anyone would envy. John's pet hobby is ties and he certainly has some of the most gorgous ones to be designed. Johnny's a very, very quiet lad. one of the quietest in the class, but willing to help anyone. His sunny disposition is a sure cure for the blues. Here's success to the future Paderewski of the world! Junior Play Committee (3). Junior Prom Committee (3) , Senior Play Committee (4), Senior Dance Committee (4) , Latin Program (4), Glee Club (2).
