CLA SS '55 In vivid, glowing pinks, the intense personality of BETTY SMITH --so alive and so feminine--comes forth. Betty was state reporter of the FBLA, historian of the FHA chapter, and a member of the Glee Club Pep Club, and Beta Club. Because of her efficient handling of '55 Bull- dog staff duties, she was elected to membership in Quill and Scroll.. . . . . . . . Picture steel girders against a Manhattan sky and you have caught a glimpse of CARL SMITH. Carl participated in a trio of BKHS sports--football, basketball, and track ........ Catch a glimpse of BOB WALLACE, and it's strictly romance in modern verse--Sir Gala- had with a crew-cut--or Prince Charming come to life. Bob was co- captain of the football team 2 years, class president during his freshman and sophomore years, and played basketball and participated in track 4 years. He was Glee Club prexy, vice-president of the Student Council, sports editor of the Bulldog for 2 years, sports editor and senior advi- sory board member on the Knob, and a member of Quill and Scroll tvice- president 2 yearsl, the Beta Club, Glee Club, Ensemble, Boys' Quartet, and Press Club. He was elected Mr. BKHS in the '54 Who's Who . . . . . . ARVIE WALLIS is the tomboy in petticoats, but tomboys make wonderful ladies, don't they? Arvie lettered 3 years in basketball, and was a candidate for the SMS beauty revue. She played on the volley ball and softball teams, and was a member of FHA, Pep Club, and Glee Club . . . . . . . . A passing thought of Daniel Boone in tweeds portrays EUELL WEBSTER's caveman cavalier style. He was a member of the track beam two years, and was active in the Dramatics Club and Pep Club- . . . . . . . . Like a birthday cake with pink icing, GEARLDINE WIL- L1AMSON's personality is sharp and clear. She was a Football maid in '53, played basketball 2 years, and was a member of FHA, FBLA, Pep Club and Glee Club. 'TN .
