22 THE MERCURY gave up the violin for the automobile and has made extremely rapid progress ever since. Apparently lack of gasoline is the only cause for serious thought in his life. He can always see the humor in a situation and can be count- ed on to laugh. Eli has a great aver- sion to oral topics, and is almost al- ways ill on such sad occasions. All we can say is that we hope he finds his progress in life as iieet as his progress with the automobile. Course: general. Honors: orchestra CI-2-gl. DoLoREs GUAY Gusty is the disturbing element in our class. When she appears on the scene things begin to happen. She just seems to have a natural knack of stir- ring things up and getting people ex- cited. Her explosions occur just often enough to ease the monotony and create an interesting diversion. More- over, her outbursts usually bring re- sults. She is liked by everyone for her jolly impetuous nature and cheerful smile. Another of her great assets is her remarkable voice, beautiful in tone and tremendous in volume. The school is going miss her, but who knows, we may yet boast that we were classmates of Dolores Guay, the great operatic star. Course: classical. Honors: CMt.

Standing erect at his full height, one hand in his vest, the other placed behind his back, and here is our Napoleon, Shrimp Donnelly, a martyr to U. S. History and Latin IV. Kenneth is a perpetual surprise, even to those who know him best. At the least expected time he will mumble some expression that, if heard, cannot help starting laughter. Just watch him in the future. Some day he will take an unexpected start and prove himself a genius. Course: classical. ROBERT FITZGERALD To Whom are we indebted for the picture on the cover of THE MERCURY? To none other than Robert Fitzgerald, the best artist in the school.
