June Bug - - 1929 'ge A A -of ROBERT AMTHOL BARTHEL Go forth under the open skies, and list to Nature's teachings. HERE is Bob , who is known to almost everyone as our tennis star-and an able- bodied one at that. We suppose his accurate placing of balls comes from his profound knowl- edge of finding unknown quantities so aptly shown in his math classes. While this is the truth, it is not the w'hole truth, for Bob is an all around outdoor man. He not only enters into all outdoor games, but also likes to sleep out in the open with only a sky for a roof and the earth for a bed. Probably this explains his cheerful disposition and smiling countenance. DOROTHY CARSON BEITLER Lovely thou art, ay lovely In spirit and in form A Sunbeam glancing o'er life's tears: A rainbow thru the storm. CLEAR the way!-here comes Beitler, alias Dizz. As she nonchalantly strolls down the corridor, humming snatches of popular tunes. we are impressed with her charming manner- but to see her attempting to drive Cand howlj fills us with fear. In future years we shall not be surprised to open a magazine and see the charming face of our former schoolmate smiling radiantly at us-either as an advertisement for Pepsodent toothpaste or Maybelline. May you amble along life's path as carefree and happy as you saunter thru the corridors of Catonsville. MARGARET MAUDE BEST Learning by study must be won: 'Twas ne'er entaxl'd from son to son. ALTHOUGH the senior class can boast no actual set of twins, Margaret is one of the team of Heinmuller and Best which strives to make up for the deficiency. Efliciency is one of Mar- garet's chief characteristics, as may easily be seen by her work as editor of The Catonian. and by the marks which she attains in her subjects. Margaret has helped more than one struggling student out of a hole with her customary kind- liness. She is faithful to her many friends and loyal to our school and all of its activities. 431615--

June Bug 1929 54 H D99 MARTIN LOUIS ANDREE An affable and a courteous gentleman. HERE comes Mike, late as usual, yet with a smile and a good morning that stops all censure. He's always there if any fun is going on and always ready to go one better or tell one worse. Yes. he's one-sixth of the male popula- tion of lVC and as thorough a good fellow as one would care to meet. Mike always has his lessons, and if he doesn't. he can make such a good try that one would imagine he had spent hours on the subject. Among his weaknesses are track. basketball, and wimmen . Good luck, Mike. RICHARD DORSEY ARMSTRONG Self conquest is the greatest of victories. WHO is it that sits so quietly in the back of the class room-the boy with .the dark curly hair and the quiet manners? Who could it be but our own Dick. As before said, Dick is a quiet lad. He never speaks out of turn, yet finds time to joke when the occasion demands and the spirit impells. Dick has not participated in athletics, for he entered late and his time has fully been taken up with his studies. That. however, does not rule him out of the athletic class for the year before he performd well at goal. on the soccer team. If Dick tends to business as he tends to his lessons in school. he will make an accomplished business man. RICHARD AMOS 'BARNES A faultless body and zz blameless mind. DICK, the ever faithful performer of the un- expected, occupies the exalted position of the chief wit of IVA. He is justly proud of his oflice, and promptly every morning he arrives laden with new wise-cracks to preside over his subjects. In addition to this great office, he also holds that of the most eliicient tossers of erasers. which honor he retains by daily practice. Dick. the ever gallant senior, has been accused of pos- sessing the qualities that are necessary to con- stitute a line with the ladies. --.gf 15 B,

June Bug ui' ' ,, ,, 1929 IDA MAY BOONE Haste thee nymph and bring with thee Jest and youthful jollity. ALLOW me to introduce Boonie-but of course you already know her. Boonie's recipe for popularity seems to be a large dose of amia- bility which she administers in the form of a ready smile, a friendly word, or a bit of sweet sarcasm unto everyone. And she is a Student Rep. Who is better fitted for the part than Boonie-the ever jolly, ever calm, ever depend- able Boonie? However, she has one weakness. Shh!-it's the boys!-but we don't blame her, for she can well afford it. She's a real sport, a valuable friend, and a type Catonsville is proud of! OSCAR DANIEL BOWER What should a man do but be merry IF ever you see a laughing group of people, you can be assured that Oscar is the center of attention. One always forgets his troubles when being entertained by this humorous fellow. as you might expect. Studying is the least of Oscar's worries, but he gets there just the same -probably because of his wonderful personality. But besides being witty, Oscar claims the added honor of being goal keeper of the soccer team- except when he is off for a deficiency in physics. Such a skillful goal keeper is he that it takes more than a good man to- get what he misses. Now that we have come to the parting of the ways. we will all miss Oscar, but we are sure that he will succeed in his happy-go-lucky manner. JOHN ZIMMERMAN BOWERS None but himself can be his parallel JOHN, a bashful, smiling. academic student, is a good scholar. He solemnly avers that he was one of the most troublesome boys of the freshman class. But it has been a long while since then, and now, as a member of the senior class, he has grown dignified. Besides, he has a very pleasing disposition. We can't judge what vocation John has in mind but we are sure he will succeed in the undertaking. The class of '29 wishes to take this opportunity to wish John good luck. 17 E..-
