THE QUIVER 31 VINCENT MALLEY “ 'And why is it so?’ asks Malley our friend, His flow of questions will never end.” “A root to toot, a root to toot”—crash! hang! with a crash of harps and timbrals Vinnic” enters. “Vinnie” is our class actor, and he believes in the adage “Practice makes perfect. Vinnie has shown remarkable ability in plays other than those put on by our high school, and people who have seen him act his varied roles have predicted a great future for “Vinnic in the finest of fine arts, dramatics. Despite all these favorable prophecies, “Vinnie plans to become an aviator. Lately Vinnie has shown a liking toward Alice” blue more than any other color. “Vinnie’s favorite song is How Long Will It Last? We are sure that “Vinnie will be as efficient in handling the stick as he was in his acting.

IRENE FRANCES MARTELL Irene is always considered quite 'Frank' In her cheering for the maroon and black. Here she is, the life of the party, our witty and snappy head cheer leader. Irene leads the comic parade when it comes to wit. It also may be noted that Irene rates high in the study of dancing. Irene is extremely fond of football and of a certain member of the football squad—well, anyway, that's Irene’s secret. Irene’s loyalty to her friends and her winning ways have won for her a place in the hearts of her classmates. We may find Irene at Simmons next year, and best wishes to you, Irene!

Trix, or “Irish as she is generally called, is a lighthaired, blue-eyed, fun-loving lass who is one of our many bookkeepers who frequency seek the attic of our school. She is often seen in the typewriting and bookkeeping rooms working as hard as any secretary may hope to work. “Trix also likes sports of all kinds, and her participations on a volley-ball or basketball team usually results in a victory for her team. We do not know her future intentions, but wherever you are, “Trix, you may keep in mind that the best wishes of the Class of'32 go with you! Senior Play Committee (4), Junior Play Committee (3), Girls' Volley-ball (3), Nu Sigma Nu Club (4). ELEANOR MARGARET McDONNELL Regal in bearing, charming to all. Including her school friends big and small. A seven-letter word meaning personality? The answer is “Eleanor. Our class would not be complete without her. Every morning in the hall you will find Eleanor holding an assembly all of her own. Eleanor is present at all school functions. She is a follower of our football games- we don t have to wonder why. Whatever the sport may be—Eleanor is an enthusiastic cheerer. At R I. C. E next year, we are sure that she will continue the excellent record that she has started here. Junior Prom Committee (3).

Quite a model to us all.” “Hiho”— when we hear that phrase, we know that “Ruthic” has entered the room. Ruth has a smile for everyone and everyone has a smile for her. Here is why we all become questionnaires when we ask Ruth why her favorite class period is “gym.” Her work is always up-to-date, for she never believes in “lagging.” “Ruthie” intends to be somebody's private secretary. We can give the reference that she is capable of taking care of all this work and she is efficient as well as neat. Best of luck from ’32. Senior Play Committee (4), Junior Prom Committee (3), Student Council (21, Glee Club (3), Junior Play Committee (3), Nu Sigma Nu Club (4). WALTER LIPSKY “Sincerity combined with mirth Describes our Walter’s worth. Walter is one of the smallest boys in the class, but by no means the quietest. He can be seen hurriedly flitting through the corridors when passing to classes, and it is said he can pass to the cafeteria in record time. Walter has little time for the opposite sex, so it seems, but still waters run deep. Walter and Miss Laviolette seem to find some hidden delight in discussing certain problems with each other, but we will let you guess the winner of the arguments or shall we say argument? Let the “fois be the evidence. Little, but oh my! Walter. CARL MacDOUGALL “This lad possesses dramatic ability. He portrays all roles with great facility. Carl is always ready with a smile for everyone. Do you remember him in the Junior Play as Parkes and as Andy in our Senior Play? Then he was starred in “The Sunbonnet Girl, the 1932 Junior Play, as Reuben, “the handsomest bud of them all. You may see him on the silver screen in the future, taking the place of one of the Barrymores. In addition to dramatic ability, he possesses a fine voice, and the art of clogging is his. Wherever you are, Carl, remember the good old days of W. H. S., whose Class of '32 wishes you the best of luck.

MILTON MACK “Milton is always in fashion 'Cause ‘dressing-up’ is his chief passion. It may be truthfully said that Milton rates highest as our happy-go-lucky fellow. He does not believe in too much study, and never seems to be in a hurry. When it comes to admiration, Milton gets his share of the glances from the opposite sex. How about it, Milton? At the socials and dances, Milton is usually seen with his pal “Joe. Milton does not boast of having a girl friend in or around our fair city, but we know him to be particularly interested in Worcester. With his amiable disposition and care-free manner, we know Milton will succeed. Interclass Basketball (4), Junior Play (4), Glee Club (4).

Then 'Stclle' is the girl for you to meet.” Another one of our supposedly timid girls. But you should see “Mac” out of school. That is when her best friends see her. Estelle is a fine example of the old saying: “A friend in need is a friend indeed.” She is another student one can nearly always see in Rooms 21 or 22. We often hear her merry giggle, and it is so infectious we just have to laugh in sympathy. Estelle delights in accompanying her friends to athletic activities. No matter where you go, “Mac,” the best wishes of the Class of ’32 will follow you. Basketball (2), Volley-ball (2). JAMES McMAHON “ 'Jimmie' is the boy so well-known, In school his number of friends sure has grown!” A smile goes a long way, and Jimmie knows this. “Jimmie is our mathematical “shark, and he is willing to give you help in either algebra or geometry. It is rumored that “Jimmie's favorite color is red. We wonder why? Jimmie” knows his vegetables, and he is the boy who can tell you if “tomatoes and potatoes are cheaper. The secret of his success is that he is “the personality behind the counter” at Kenyon's Market. “Jimmie’ plans to enter R. I. State next fall, where he will take up engineering. Here's luck to you, Jimmie.” Interclass Basketball (3) (4). ADELINE MONI “I do what I may. What more can I say?” Adeline is one of the most “seemingly-serious” girls in high school. She is not often found smiling, but has one of the most serious faces ever seen until you have the opportunity to know her well, and then what a difference! A twinkle comes into her eyes and a rare smile brightens up her face. She is very methodical in her work. This is a consolation for many teachers, as they know that her work, at least, is done. Adeline never breaks a promise. This is a worthy trait and one that adds value to the other admirable qualities that Adeline has. Glee Club (3) (4). CHRISTINE HILDEGARDE MOORE “To find one quite as charming, Is a task that is alarming.” Take one cup brimming with personality, one sweet smile, blue eyes, lovely clothes to suit the taste, and mix well. What is the result? Our Christine, of course. She is a brilliant pupil as well as a good friend to have in one's circle. Her charming reserve, which singles her out as one of our dignified girls, does not serve as a barrier to her popularity. She is quite lost without her inseparable companion, whom she has had throughout her high school days. Has anyone noticed how “Ernest she is about her personal friends?
