24 THE QUIVER AURANETTE GUERTIN “Full of vim and always peppy. No wonder 'Nin' is so happy. Who is making all the commotion in that group of Senior girls? Why, no one but “Ninette. “Ninette can always he depended on to tell a funny story or a joke at a moment's notice. She just seems to radiate good humor, which is sometimes rather contagious, and has she pep! Oh. Boy! We wish “Ninette would tell us how she manages to get all her work in promptly. She has never been known to be a day or two late. We hear that she is quite popular with a certain somebody in Manville. Is that true, Ninette ?

Obstacles such as physical injuries and school difficulties have prevented his playing part-time schedule, however, he has had the opportunity of displaying his ability. “Babe possesses a charm which appeals to the opposite sex. Be she a blonde, a red head, or a brunette, he is mutually affected. There is a certain corner store which serves as a meeting place for “old grads. We have learned that Babe is a member of this organization and that he acquires his profound knowledge of modern literature through his extensive reading in these quarters. Well—good luck “Babe, from the class of '32. Glee Club (3), Football (2) (3)( (4). Baseball (2).

MICHAEL HACZYNSKI “A quiet shy lad is our ‘Mike.’ A lad whom everyone is sure to like.” Michael is one of the quietest boys in the Senior Class. He always pays strict attention to his work, to see whether or not it is properly done and if it is handed in on time. When doing his work, he is utterly devoid of any interest in the doings of the other pupils around him. Concentration on his work is his chief trait, and this should enable him to succeed far in the Path of Life. Wishing him the best of luck in years to come, we know that any vocation that he may undertake will prove worthy of him. Glee Club (3) (4), Inter-class Basketball (4). STANLEY HACZYNSKI “Who crashes those cymbals behind the band? Why 'tis none other than our 'Stan'.” “Hey there! Have you got an extra pencil? This is a favorite question of Stan's. He never thinks to have a pencil before shorthand, until it is always a minute or two before dictation. However, that is not the only trait he possesses. He can also play a violin and is a member of our orchestra. “Stan’s chief hobby is a very unusual one. That is— he adores annoying people just for fun. But most of us know “Stan and his hobby and, in consequence, take him good-naturedly. The class hopes that you will succeed as well as you can crash those cymbals, “Stan!” Orchestra (2) (3) (4), Band (3) (4), Dramatic Club

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).

THE QUIVER 25 OLGA HALAS “A girl so very gracious and kind. One you can depend on all the time.” Olga is the girl with the magnetic personality. There seems to be a continual mischievous gleam in her eyes which surely indicates her great sense of humor and good nature. Who has ever seen Olga refuse to help anyone? Have any of you ever seen Olga imitate a Scotchman, or a Negro, or a Frenchman? She is so good at it that we expect to see her name in electric lights on Broadway some day as an impersonator. To be a friend of Olga, one needs to keep up to date with current events. When Olga starts a conversation, we feel ashamed of our little knowledge. Orchestra (2) (3) (4), Quiver Board (4), Nu Sigma Nu Club (4). BOHDAN HALLAS “A serious thinker, a good student. To follow his example would be prudent.” “How do you do the sixth problem? What gender is this word? How do you conjugate this verb? Who was Aristophanes? Bohdan, a product of one of the suburban towns of Woonsocket, answers questions like these every day, for Bohdan is the scholar of the class. The second letter of the alphabet generally appears but once every time he receives his report card. Last year, Bo won a scholarship prize offered by Harvard University. Bohdan goes out for the various athletic teams in a big way in addition to his duties as track manager. Bohdan is a real boy. Student Council (2), Football (2) (3) (4), Track Manager (4), Inter-class Basketball (2) (3), Basketball (4). FRED HOGAN A man about school, a man of wit. Whose jokes turn laughter into a fit. Fred is a tall, well built young man. His philosophy is yesterday is yesterday—today is today but there is no tomorrow, until it is today. Perhaps this is why he meets everything with his ever-ready smile and a shrug of the shoulders as if it were of no importance. Wodehouse should meet Fred because here he would find a kindred spirit as they both know the art of “Wet and dry humor. Fred is sure to be liked wherever he goes because he is such an understanding fellow. Baseball (4). NELLIE HORBAYCHUK “ ‘All sweet things are small,’ we knowingly say. That's how our respects to Nellie we pay. Nellie is a girl whose charming personality captivates everyone. She has a fair aureole of golden, curly hair as well as two roguish, twinkling blue eyes, and her quick, spontaneous smile is ever-ready. She excels in shorthand. It is her pet subject, and she is one of our most efficient shorthand takers. She also has the essential qualities of an ideal secretary, and her success is insured, we feel, if she chooses this as her vocation. We hear she has been interested for some time in a pair of Dark Eyes. Best o’ luck, “Nell, from the class of 32.
