Belmont High School EVALYN KEITH Evalyn is a popular, all-round girl, one who does not especially excel her classmates in any one field, but enters into all activities with equal enthusiasm — that is almost equal: for she does surpass all in respect to hair-dressing. The manner in which she does up her golden locks is surely the conception of a genius! She has been wearing her “pug” for quite some time now, so we have become fairly “Hughes” to it, and we do like it — don’t we George? ELINOR KELLEY Picture a slim exquisite girl with a sleek brown bob and dark eyes, in whose depths lurks a suggestion of mystery. Add to these the facts that “Billie” has a rich contralto voice and wears clothes of a most Parisian fashion — and you have a faint conception of the pleasure that is ours on making Elinor’s acquaintance. As the fascinating heroine of the musical comedy, “Springt ime”, presented in our Junior Year, Elinor scored a decided hit. Do you wonder she has more beaux than a regiment of archers? JEAN KELSO “ What star is this ? What tumult in the heavens ' ? Whence cometh this alarm and the noise?’ Yes, sad to confess, although Jean stars both in athletics and in learning, she unhappily also excels in pandemonium. Twice Vice-President of the class, basketball captain, nascent tennis champion, Associate Editor of this — this — (words fail us) — certainly there can be no question about it; Jean Stan’s alone a head above us all. CECELIA KERRIGAN “Try, try again”, chants Cecelia — and she does. In every class we find this true. Although she has not yet reached the peak of scholarship she is steadily advancing toward this height. However, while consecrating herself to the attainment of her desire, she does not look only at the serious side of life; for her sunny disposition guarantees a ready welcome for her in any gathering. Due to her sparkling jocundity, she seems to — “ shame the stars as daylight doth a lamp.” 26

CALL IjJ Carla” is one of our talented public readers, possessing the double power of bringing tears to our eyes and pride to our hearts. She it is who so smilingly and graciously conducts us to our seats in the local “Opera House”. An active member of the Spanish Club, she seems to take quite an interest in naval officers, no doubt on account of the possibility of sailing to Spain some day. Can’t you just picture Caroline strumming a guitar in some far-away Spanish villa? i ¥ 25 H

The 1927 Chameleon EDMUND KEVILLE “Emmy’s” diminutive stature does not serve to keep him beneath our notice — far from it. Rather the brilliancy of his mind keeps him in the public eye, for he is one of the envied “clear thinkers” of the class. One of our stalwart racket-weilders, Emmy displays his proficiency in the sport made famous by Tilden and Lenglen. A report has been traveling around school to the effect that Emmy is going to Williams. Well, we know of no one better qualified to up- hold the prestige of Belmont both in college and i n the legal world; for we hear he aspires to the dignity of the law. EDWARD H. LADD Ed is the boy who “tootles” the cornet in the orchestra — and “tootles” it well, needless to say. Despite his apparent lung power, Eddie makes little noise in class. Some boys are that way — quiet, but there with the goods! A faithful “rooter” for all Belmont’s athletics, this embryonic chain- store manager certainly lives up to the code of a good sport. This sporting instinct influences even Eddie’s taste in clothes as is evinced by his predilection for “classy” knickers and rolled socks. MAE N. LANGLEY “ He that will purchase things of greatest prize Must conquer by his deeds and not by words.” If the above stipulation is to be believed, Mae will cer- tainly be a wealthy young lady someday. Possessed of a quiet temperament, she is one of our most industrious students. Is an essay of individual style needed for the Year-Book? Ask Mae for it. Does someone wish a charmingly artistic poster to advertise a social event? Go to Mae for it — and so on, ad infinitum. This quietly humorous little miss is a vital factor in the Class of ’27 and, for that matter, will be one in whatever profession she follows. ALFRED W. LARSON Not only must the physical abilities of “Wolf”, one of those rare and priceless personages known as “three-letter men”, be admired; but, since he also stars in the more scholarly fields his mental attributes must be extolled as well. As Chief Justice of the “Supreme Court of the United States”, he was an awful and impressive magistrate. May the same success obtained by his momentous decision on the guilt of the President of the Fourth Period History Class guide him through the yet more important decisions of after years 27
