THE QUIVER 15 VIVIAN S. GENDRON Good things come in small packages. Tiny, but oh. my! Vivian certainly knows a trick or two about attracting attention, especially with that little giggle of hers Nevertheless, we must admit that she is one of the snappiest and wittiest members of our Senior Class. And can she dance? At every dance we are sure to find Vivian a big asset to the opposite sex. Vivian takes frequent trips to New York, and we shall not at all be surprised to find her taking dictation on the forty second story of some large firm. Let s hope her employer is tall, dark and handsome, so as to meet with Vivian's requirements. We know that she will make a fine secretary for some one. Student Council (2). Basketball (2), Junior Play Committee (3), Business Club (4). DOROTHY MERLE GILBERT A smile will go a long, long way. Who is tha; person with those pearly, white teeth and that winning smile? Who can it be? Well, there is only one person it can be—- Dot Gilbert. Dot's disposition is an asset to her for it has won many an ardent admirer. Her school spirit is shown in her interest in sports— Dot is an ardent follower of all our games. We wonder why? Dot has not revealed her ambition to us. but we hope she will pursue a business career. May success follow you. is the wish of Class '31. Senior Dance Committee (4). Business Club f4). Ticket Committee. Senior Play (4). GILBERT H. GILROY For well they laughed at all his jokes, for many a joke had he.” A stir! A commotion! Laughter ringing throughout the room! Behold Gilroy entering the class room with his cheery greetings. Got a pencil? Gilroy plans to become an actor. He revealed this by his dramatic ability in the Senior Play. ' ohavings. He was then a bachelor, but will he really remain so? We are doubtful, because Gilroy's occasional dreamy moods are due to Lydian airs. Now wait a minute. Gilroy is not always in those dreamy moods for when he is influenced by Hal Roach Talkies he amuses both teachers (?) and students. If you feel depressed just call on Doctor Cure for Blues. Senior Play (4). Business Club (4). Glee Club (3) (4). Band (3) (4). Orchestra (3) (4). MAY OLIVE GOEWEY Determination and quiet nerve. Hidden beneath a calm reserve. A quiet girl is our May. She has been a most industrious worker and we have en joyed her companionship in our classes throughout the three years she has been with us: but we fear that we shall lose her if she some day flies away, as she is greatly interested in aeroplanes and intends to become an aviatrix. If May fulfills her undertaking we are confident of her success. The most sincere wishes will follow you. May. when you fly across the Atlantic Ocean in the near future. Senior Play Committee (4).

THE QUIVER U MARGARET CLAIRE EGAN She was loved by everyone, big and small. Attention, everyone! Here comes Peg. thought by many of her classmates to be the most popular girl in her class Isn't she cute? Peg. however, is not only popular, but also one of the best athletes among the girls of our class and the envy of many. Fairmount sent Peg to us. and she is one of its staunch supporters. We all know that besides being a resident of that section of our city, there is another attrac tion too. At a basketball game Peg always stands Pat. that Woonsocket will win Chemistry is Peg's” favorite subject. Many times she has been heard to exclaim. Oh dear! Wasn't that chemistry test terrible? 1 know I didn t pass because 1 just didn t know what it was all about. Things aren’t so bad as they look, Peg.' Don t worry, you passed. Rhode Island College of Education will claim our Peg next year, we think. Class Officer (3) (4). Student Council (2) (3) (4). QUIVER Board (4). Junior Prom Committee (3), Senior Dance Committee (4). Honor Roll. MARY THERESA FAGAN Gracious, trim and neat From her head to her feet. Mary is the long searched for true friend. You all know her as the tall attractive girl who can always be seen strolling aim in aim with her best pal. Bebe. A cheerful disposition, a sunny smile, and a charming personality are the outstanding characteristics of Mary. Mary and her mirror are inseparable, for a shiny note is an unpardonable disgrace in her estimation. Mary doesn t talk too much, but we wonder what these frequent trips to Pawtucket mean Is it strictly for business reasons that you go? Mary is a loyal rooter at all our games for she is known for her good sportsmanship She plans to be “Somebody's Stcnog when she leaves us. We are certain you will succeed, Mary. Library Club (2) (3). Inter class Basketball (3) (4). DORIS ADRIAN FAUBERT Her quiet smile and tranquil mien Bespeak serenity within. Doris, in spite of her quiet and reserved manner, has won many true friends during her school career. She has been outstanding in sports and has aided her class to victory more than once. Dot’s wavy wind blown bob. as well as her agility on the gym floor, arc envied by many of her less fortunately gifted friends. She is also a very clever artist, as any of her friends can tell you. Dot never neglects her studies, and we know she'll be a success in whatever she may wish to do. Ticket Committee (2). Candy Committee (2). Basketball (2) (3) (4) Volley Ball (2) (3) (4). Library Club (2). ARLENE FOLEY Charming to everyone—pleasant and true. Who is that dignified pert, little miss over there in that stunning green dress? Why. it's none other than our Arlene. It has been reported that our Arlene possesses hypnotic powers, but we think that the power vested in tho.e alluiing blue eyes is of much more importance to her. There is a certain Page in one of her favorite numbers that she loves to Turn over and over again. Arlene enjoys dancing very much, and oh my! you should see those little size 3's glide over the floor. Ask Arlene her favorite type of a car and she will answer. Why a Ford coupe, of course. Arlene's unusual ability in all her subjects will undoubtedly go a long way in making life a success for her. Cheerio. Arlene. Junior Play Committee (3).

16 THE QUIVER -------------------------- JOSEPH SOLOMON GOI DFINE A wise man sayeth very little.” Who is the happy-go-lucky boy strolling the corridors so leisurely? Joe.’’ the wonder in chcmistiy. is a terrible expense to the school, as more than one instrument has been broken by him. However, some far sighted lad has taken revenge by burning his suit and shoes. Joe's most inter esting subject is selling shoes. Attired in a flashy green shirt. Joe can be seen in one of our local shoe stores every after noon and Saturday acquiring experience in the business field. This care free lad has been a great help to the school with his car. If you haven't mastered arithmetic progression, the theory of Pythagoras or Boyles' Law. consult Joe ; he'll probably throw a little light on the subjects. In the days to come, we hope to see Joe as the competent manager of a successful shoe store. Glee Club (4), Inter class Basketball (2) (}). NATHANIEL ROBERT GOLDMAN I have a heart with room for every joy. Nat is the boy with the curly blond hair and cheerful countenance who goes around borrowing homework and chewing gum. He is a great help to his chemistry class, for whenever Mr. Murphy asks a question. Nat quickly shouts his answer—then the rest of us chorus out the opposite of what he says, and usually have the right answer. And when he gets loose in the Lab. every man for himself! It is no fault of Nat's that we have survived his experiments to discover whether the class could distinguish between chlorine and carbon monoxide by the odor! Nat plans to enter R. 1. State next fall, and after finishing there, he will probably head some large fruit and produce company. Glee Club (3) (4). Inter-class Basketball (2). Junior Play Committee (3). Football (4). CONSTANCE GOSSEL1N There's mischief in this lady. Conny has been with us for three wonderful years, during which time she has become one of the best liked girls in our class. Her jokes keep constantly chasing our blues” away, and whenever we hear someone singing and laughing in the midst of a crowd of girls and boys we know that Conny is the entertainer. Do you know that Conny's'' favorite holiday is Noel ? Business Club (4). Orchestra (4), QuiVt R Board (4). Senior Play Committee (4). JAMES R GOULD Life is not life at all without delight. Happiness, joviality and ability are the chief charactcris tics of our hero. Jimmy's dry wit and cheery manner have made him one of the live wires” of ’31.” Many the day he has brightened by his clever witticisms. In the classroom he was a diligent worker, ever anxious to grasp and analyze the fundamentals of a new system. Beyond a doubt. James will attain the pinnacle of whatever he may choose as an occupation. We are certain that his sunny disposition and warm smile will go a long way in helping him to his goal. Glee Club (3J.
