22 THE QUIVER AARON GERSHKOFF “He's diplomatic in many ways. And he is never found in daze.” Hail to our second Rudy Vallee! Don't look around and ask who he is, you should know. If you don't. I’ll tell you. It's Aaron who is syncopation himself. When the fair students of our school saw Aaron play the part of “Ned in our Junior Play, many gasps were heard throughout the auditorium. As McSpavin” in the musical comedy “Sunbonnet Girl Aaron showed us that no one could get “flip with the constabule. As Aaron excels in mechanical drawing, he spends much of his free time in Miss Pond's drawing room. Aaron plans to enter Tufts College next fall and pursue the graceful art of architecture. Here's luck, Aaron! Junior Play (3), Dramatic Club (4), Orchestra (3) (4), Band (3) (4). JEANNE GIGUERE “If in style you would he. It’s ‘Gin’ you should see. If we were to vote on the question, Who is the happiest person on Friday, “Gin would be elected unanimously. Do you want someone to advise you what to wear to be in style? Well, go to “Gin as she surely will he able to help you. Jeanne is planning to be a nurse. There is no vocation to which she is better suited as she enjoys relieving others of pain and suffering. Those who are to work with her will delight in her fastidiousness, punctuality, and neatness. “Gin's favorite topic of discussion is school spirit—did you ever hear her discuss it? Nu Sigma Nu Club (4). RICHARD H GODDARD “ 'Dick' is the tall boy who is usually called upon When a problem in 'math' is so difficult and long. Who’s the tall young man rushing out of the building at 2:31? Naturally it is Dick rushing home to his greatest interest, his radio. Most of his spare time is given up to exploring the mysteries of short wave, but don’t think he neglects his studies, for he is one of the brightest boys in the class. Need any help in solving a “trig problem or a geometry theorem or any other study? Just ask “Dick and he'll reel off information that would make the teachers realize that after all their efforts are not entirely in vain. Next year will find Dick at M. I. T. studying more about radio. Best of luck, “Dick ! Inter-class Basketball (2) (3). THOMAS GRADY “A bashful boy, but not too shy. Daunted by nothing, ever willing to try. Think Tom's” quiet? Then you've never had the opportunity of being on hand when he starts to open his “bag of tricks. He is timid and seldom lets loose in the class room, so some people think he is quiet. “Tom is a loyal friend and a good sport. He has the reputation of hoping to remain a struggling bachelor and the only attraction that matrimony will ever offer “Tom is the possibility of finding a girl who is an expert cook, for Tom” loves to eat. He is noted for his ability to produce great quantities of edibles at lunch hour. He has not made his plans for the future known to us, but we are certain that he will be a success in his choice.

THE QUIVER 21 HECTOR FONTAINE “Hector always has a friendly greeting. So we anticipate each meeting.” Here is the boy best known to his “pals” as “Gregoire. “Gregoire” was one if the reasons why our football season proved such a wonderful success in every wav. He was also an aid to our baseball nine during its highly profitable series of games last year. We are sure that some fair member of the opposite sex claims “Gregoire’s” time, but sh-h-h, that’s his secret, isn't it. Hector? We are not sure just what Hector intends to do after graduation, but, if you keep up your present work, the future is bound to be successful for you. Hector.

Many of us he has inspired. The gentleman with the typically scholarly face is Ken. In spite of his studious appearance he is more than a good scholar, he is also a good “pal,” as many of his friends will tell you. “Lcn is an ex-member of the famous “Rough Riders Club” of last year, we hear. He is also a member of the Triumvirate: Dickey, Greene, and Frame. He prefers contrary to the old adage, brunettes. Seriously speaking, however, “Ken has many opportunities to gather the laurels that we, who know him, are sure he deserves. Quiver (4), Glee Club (3) (4), Debate (3), Junior Prom Committee (3), Musical Comedy (4)- CELINA ELIZABETH GAGNE “ ‘Who is that happy-go-lucky girl with A. B ? You may be very sure that she is our C.” Have you ever seen C worrying over anything or without a smile for everyone? “C” is always ready to lend a hand and willingly, no matter what it may be. We hear that “C is a frequent traveler to Westboro. We wonder why? Oh, yes! maybe it's to see the chick”-ens. We wonder if “C’ is going to start a farm in the Green Mountain State. “C” has made many friends during her three years at High and we shall all miss her when she leaves. As to “C's future intentions we are not certain, but we all wish her the best of luck. Volley Ball (2), Basketball (2), Dramatic Club (4), Senior Play Committee (4), Nu Sigma Nu Club (4). HARRY GARELICK ”A true friend and a scholar bright. The same Harry from morning to night. Step right up, folks, and shake hands with Harry. As King in the Junior Play, and as “Stubbins in the Senior Play, Harry gave an excellent account of himself. Harry took part in all the social affairs held by the school, and he was also a valuable member of the basketball squad. Harry s ready wit and pleasing personality have won for him a host of friends among his teachers and classmates. He plans to enter Rhode Island State College next fall, and then pursue the gentle art of husbandry. Here’s hoping Harry gets the break he justly deserves.

THE QUIVER 23 DOROTHY GRANT “ ‘Dot' is the girl who is so petite Although many apples she does eat. Hail to “Dot, the girl with the perpetual smile and sunny disposition. Dot is always the center of a crowd of boys or girls except at 8:29%, when she alone slips into Room 18. “Dot excels in the lunch period, and she firmly believes that an apple a day keeps the doctor away. “Dot may be called the noisiest girl in the class, but her noise is mixed with her rich wit and humor. “Dot is very much interested in Worcester, and we think that she will Frankly admit it. How about that last vacation, “Dot? Please tell us. Student Council (2 (3) (4), Senior Play Committee (4). Dramatic Club (2) (4), Glee Club (4), Girls Basketball (2) (3), Nu Sigma Nu Club (4). RAYMOND GREENE Here is a classmate we re proud to own, All his good points he has readily shown We have always found this young man to be a very interesting person, for he possesses both a jovial nature and a keen mind. Though he is the possessor of these line characteristics and is considered good-looking, he is one of the most girl-shy boys in the class. He has always taken his school work earnestly and has got more out of school than most of us, especially out of chemistry as he is quite a chemistry shark. His plans for the future are undecided, but we are sure that wherever he goes or whatever he undertakes he will be a success. Best of luck, Ray! Student Council (2 (3), Glee Club (4), Inter-class Basketball (2) (3), Junior Prom Committee (3), Junior Play (4). JEANNETTE CECILE GUERNON “Jeannette excels in law and bookkeeping. In these subjects you'll ne'er find her sleeping. Jeannette, according to her classmates, is a quiet and demure little lass. Her closest friends, however, contradict this statement. A well developed sense of humor is found, in this miss, if we penetrate the shell. Whist parties and other parties (?) occupy some of her time so we hear. They also serve who only stand and cheer may be applied to Jeannette. Is she present at every game? What a question to ask- V course she is, and a jolly crowd is always with her. With her diligent and untiring efforts she is bound to succeed. Best wishes from the class of 32 Jeannette. Senior Play Committee (4), Junior Play Committee (4), Nu Sigma Nu Club (4). RAYMOND GUIDUCCI “Here is a boy who never is blue, lt In reference to sports he is loyal and true. “Ray is the owner of the stentorian-toned voice which one so often hears coming from the back of the room. In spite o his height and his booming voice, Ray is one of our gentlest ' hms a loyal follower of all our activities and is, himself, a fine performer in that most ancient of sports, throwing the discus. “Ray’s pet aversion is, we believe. Ancient History, as he seldom displays any degree of enthusiasm in that subject. Although we do not know, as yet, just what Ray s plans for after graduation are, there is one thing we are certain ol, and that is, that with his likeable personality and industrious disposition he cannot but go a long way in whatever line ot work he chooses. Best of luck, Ray • Track (4), Inter-class Basketball (3).
