28 THE QUIVER MARY ROBINSON Laugh and the world laughs with you Who is that girl we sec many times in Room 26? Why, that's our Mary, who impersonated so well one of the lead ing roles in our Senior Play. Shavings. Mary is one of th? wittiest girls in our class and if not saying something funny can usually be seen laughing over a joke told by some-on? else. She's to be seen many mornings before school busily engaged in the day's stenography. Our cafeteria would not get along so well as it does if it were not for Mary, who has charge of the cash box during the noon hour. We know that because of her ability in public speaking. Mary will be a credit to Emerson, where she is thinking of going. Best of luck. Mary. May success be your constant companion! Business Club (4). Senior Play Committee (4). Junior Play Committee (3).

What's the answer to the chemistry question ?” How do rom rr n U ht French' These are a few of the question which are out up to Joe. one of the most gifted members of our class We always become conscious of an inferiority complex when Joe starts reciting in any class. 'Joe ' is a great admirer of Shakespeare and of all his characters. ' Joe'' considers Juliet the most interesting. The reason for the high esteem in which Joe is held by his classmates may best be shown by the statement of one of the opposite sex. who said of him. Oh’ he's so unusual!

THE QUIVER 20 JEANNETTE CECILE ROULEAU “Hair so long. Dimples sweet. Here our Jeannette You shall meet. Who hasn't noticed that quiet and sedate little lady in Room 21 ticking away on the typewriter? Jeannette is quite a typewriting shark Jeannette has the distinction of being the only girl in school who has long curls. Her hair is a crown of beauty. Her winning personality and flashing smile have won many a friend for Jeannette. Jeannette might easily be called the Pied Piper of Woonsocket High. for she charms every one with her sweet violin music. She is one of the members of the orchestra and helps to make it a success. Jeannette's ambition is to become a great violin teacher. We know she will attain her ambition as she has every other thing she has undertaken. Orchestra (4). Business Club (4), Senior Play Committee (4), Athletic Activities (3) (4). THOMAS RUSSELL We grant, although he had much wit. He was very shy of using it.” Although it is a bit trite to use that age-old expression quiet and unassuming.” Tomo inacts the role to perfection. He has been an ideal student, bearing his knowledge and exercising his talents with a sincere humility and unselfishness that so fittingly characterize a true scholar. We have an idea that it is Tomo whom Mr. Murphy refers to when he speaks of “our future wonder chemists,” for in the lab Tomo certainly played an outstanding part. Time will not allow us to forget Tomo's ability as our basketball mana ger. Armed with twin lances of sociability and perseverance. Tomo is headed for great successes. Basketball Manager (2) (3) (4). Class Officer (2), Track (2). Senior Dance Committee (4). NEIL SALLEY A smile for all, a welcome glad, A jovial, coaxing way he had.” Neil is higher up in the world than most of us, but his some six feet of height is not the limit of his attempt for altitude, for he is interested in aviation. Neil s ready smile and carefree manner do not prevent him from taking his algebra and trig seriously, and he plans to study aeronautics at the R. 1. School of Design next year. The huge air liners of the future will probably be designed by Neil, and if they travel as straight to their destination as the erasers, etc., that he throws unerringly about, his success is assured. The class of 31 wishes you fame and fortune. Neil. Orchestra (3), Glee Club (4). MATTHEW L. SAMBOR There's mischief in this man. Clang! Clang! Clang! It's Matthew coming into Room 11. Bang! he's in his seat. Then, someone's laughing: soon there s very loud whispering. Mathieu. dix minutes! Aw, no. miss, la derniere chance Une heure! and the next time you leave the room! Aw, gee!” French is Matthew' s favorite subject. Matthew is one of the noisiest boys in our class. If one hears loud stamping coming down the corridor, one can be very sure who it is. Yes. you were right; it's Matthew. Everyone likes him. nevertheless, and we all wish him much good luck in the future. Senior Play Committee (4), Inter-class Basketball (2).
