THE QUIVER 21 MICHAEL KOCUIBA If you have done your best, you have done everything.” Mike is a rather quiet and distant fellow but when vince known he is found to be a good-natured and true friend. Mike showed us what he could do in athletics! He played an excellent game of basketball and of football, too. He also has the extraordinary faculty of keeping pace with his studies while pursuing sports. The best wishes of the class of ’31 are with you. ‘ Mike.” Football (4). Basketball (4). ALEXANDER KOGUT Hang sorrow! care will kill a cat And therefore let's be merry.” Avez-vous prepare votre lecon aujourd'hui, monsieur? , asks Miss Laviolette suspiciously, as Alex struggles through one of his extempore French translations which tend to place the guilt of non-preparation upon his shoulders. Alex's” cheerful disposition is the result of his refusal to worry over scholastic difficulties. Alex makes himself felt as well as heard when he pats a friend on the back with enough force to give the receiver a feeling of unsteadiness and then asks. How are you today Old Top?' Well. Alex.” we're hoping your wits don't fail you during your sojourn at R I. State. Football (4). Inter-class basketball (3). CHARLES LAFERRIERE And. oh! he had that merry glance that seldom a lady’s heart resists.” What is all the excitement over there? Oh! I might have known it. Why. he's simply swarmed with feminine admirers. whose hearts go out to this good-looking boy. By the way. I forgot to tell you who he is. He is none other than Charlie who possesses those characteristics which attract everyone. Neatness of dress and appearance make Charlie” one of our most popular boys in the class. A litt'e blonde, which by the way explains why he is so interested in the president of the business club, takes up a great deal of his time. But hush! Leave it to Charlie.” Charlie's plans for the future are uncertain, but we are sure that he will achieve everything in the way of success in whatever he may undertake. Calss Officer—Treasurer (2), Baseball (2) (3). Student Council (2) (3). AVERY LAVINE No man is happy who does not think himself so.” Who's that? Why all the books. Avery? So that's why Avery knows his Geometry so well! Yes. and what would Mr. Murphy do without him in the chemical LABORatory. Besides. Avery loves the football field, where he has often represented our Alma Mater. From the close of the football season until the Ides of March. Avery takes up his residence in the gym on the timer's bench to see that all goes likt clock-work. His many friends will miss his splendid sense of humor, keen wit. and funny stories, which have brightened many a dull day. when he goes on to school next fall. Dramatic Club (2). Glee Club (3).

22 THE QUIVER ESDA MARCOUX Little, but oh my!” Our own jolly and modern little miss, Always up to date in her styles. A helping hand and kind smile for everyone That's our Esda. As Babbie. she made our Senior Play the huge success that it was. We'll let you in on a little secret, but don't breathe a word to anyone. Esda is keeping her little doll of the play as a souvenir of her success and also the dresses which she wore. Esda says that she is keeping the doll and dresses for a special occasion What is it. Esda? Esda seems to be very interested in Providence. for she is making frequent trips there. We wonder what the attraction is. In all events Esda is very popular with the opposite sex and can count her friends as many. We know she will continue her good work after leaving us. Much luck. Esda. Junior Play Committee (3). Senior Play (4). Business Club (4). HOWARD MELVILLE MASON The man that blushes is not quite a brute. We now come to one of the shyer members of our class. Howard is the owner of the shortest athletic record in high school. He has used a day of his time trying for each sport and has decided to refrain from future participation in high school athletics. Howie is also holder of the record number of demerits in the chemistry class. Howie” concentrates upon his French, for some day he hopes to make use of it as a Parisian fashion creator. Well, may your ambitions be realized Howie.” Dramatic Club (2). Inter-class Basketball (2) (3) (4). Glee Club (4). Senior Play Committee (4). HAROLD McCOY Silence is golden.” Who is that quiet boy sitting in the first seat over there? Yes. you're right, it's Harold. Harold is one of the handsomest boys in the Senior Class and many of the opposite sex think so. We all wish, however, that Harold would let a little smile peep out once in a while, he does it so seldom. Slatersville sent Harold to us and for that fact we have much to thank the little vil'age. Some gentlemen prefer blondes. This is especially true in Harold's case. For we all know he is especially interested in one. who also comes from Slatersville. Harold is so quiet, that, to those who do not know him very well, he rarely talks about his plans for the future. We are all sure he will succeed nevertheless. Best of luck! Senior Play Committee (4). Junior Play Committee (3). HELEN TERESA McGEE Mack Merrily, merrily, shall I live now.” Mischievous Helen! That's the only way we can describe her. Always trying to find a bit of fun for herself or giving someone else enjoyment. Helen numbers among her friends nearly the whole school, it seems, yet she manages to give her time and help to anyone who needs it. Helen is a true Musketeer. considerate of other people's feelings, helpful and friendly. Helen is greatly loved by all her friends and we prophesy for her a happy life. Let me tell you a deep secret—her favorite candy is Oh. Henry!” Library Club (2). Dramatic Club (2), Glee Club (4) Senior Play Committee (4).
