Belmont High School DESPINA LOUMOUS Diminutive Despina! Elfish little piece of girlhood, tripping airily through life! Just her smile will turn the dark cloud inside out. Prince Kintara of “O Hara San fame would not have made a fitting entrance had he not b een ushered in by our basketball captain masquerading as a Jap. E D W A II D L Y O X S Edward is the possessor of the “smile that won ' t wear off. From day to day it seems to increase in brightness, enfolding more and more friends in its cheerful rays. Hurry up and grow, Ed. that you may live up to your name in stature as well as heart! Ed has great possibilities. II E L E X M ACKE Y A bit of animated Dresden, with the sweetest disposition in the world — one who has been on a committee with Helen will tell you her practical suggestions are invaluable. Any social event is sure to be a success if Helen rides at the helm — that is, if Dresden dolls do ride at helms. We have an idea they are shepherdesses. But we don ' t care as long as we go with her! THEODORE MALMSTROM “Latest copies of Life and .Judge! ' ' What ' s the commotion? Only our irresistible Joke Editor peddling his wares. Give him a few min- utes of your time and he will convince you there is nothing like the “bright and funny side of life . Better not make a ludicrous blunder in class when Teddy is around or down it will go in his notebook for publication in our Chameleon - . Incidentally we should like to add that Ted is believed to rival Pythagoras in Math. 20

The 192J . Chameleon JEANETTE LaRONT E A smile that cheers the sachlest heart; a laugh like the breath of spring. To do a good deed every hour, is to “Jan” an easy thing. And to make a good recitation every other minute is easier still for our “Happy Heart . Coming to school but one day in three doesn’t hinder her progress any. See those mysterious history dots accumu- late on her card! Evidently, in Jan’s case it is “Absence makes the mind grow stronger.” 1 4 ' W v M A R V L A I) I) Just because Mary doesn’t make a great deal of noise, is no sign she isn’t a “little bit of all right”. Although diminutive in stature, her ideals are far from small. She has proved many times that she not only has heaps of sense, but that she can use it as well. We re with you, Mary! H O W A R D L A W The mathematics shark! We suppose that as soon as Howard leaves high school he will get a job where he never will see a figure. Howard is an enthusiastic disciple of Charles Ray; we hope it doesn’t interfere with his friendship with Edmond Burke. As a member of the “Camels”, we hope his name will go ringing down in history — we hope it will, anyway. IRVING LOUR Lohr and his pal often get mixed up. Oh. no! we don’t mean that at all — we mean that people get them mixed up. Irving would never be guilty of such a procedure; he is too level-headed for that. Some- one facetiously remarked, “Lohr’s the ’2-t string bean!” But in spite of his height or because of it, and his sunny disposition, Irving is one of our most popular fellows. ID

The 192 h Chameleon MILDRED M A R T INOLIC II Old Father Time has nothing on Milly when it comes to limiting the periods of a basketball game. Not only does she count the seconds for a game, but in her own life she makes every one count, too. Ever see her play tennis? Molla Mallory should look to her laurels. However, we are sorry to say many of her Burke recitations are net balls. But cheer up, Milly, if worse comes to worst, you can still win fame as a creator of millinery. CURTIS McLEAN Always willing, always witty, always winsome: that sums up “Turk”, the friend of everyone in school. He certainly is not the exception to the rule, “Red hair and happiness go together. Every- one that meets hin, likes him; no finer tribute can be paid. LILLIAN M a c L E A R N “ Curly locks. Curly locks , wilt thou be mine? We believe that the singer of this plea not only loves that curly locks, but the way in which she can cook. Also, Lillian is about the happiest mortal ever seen. Not a minute goes by but what her contagious giggle ripples forth. On her we bestow the title — “Gloom Dispeller”. FRANCIS M c N E A L Y In the gym on a winter afternoon let anyone pronounce the magic word. “Manager”, and presto! Up pops the smiling face of “Mac”, our basketball manager. Franny, the quiet, the happy, the carefree, and, above all. the punctual, for although he is an ardent radio fan. and all true radio fans burn freely of the midnight oil, “ Mac” has not been late to school since that distant time when he entered the first grade a “. whining school boy, with his satchel And shining morn ng face, creeping like a snail Unwilling to school. 5 -
