June Bug - - 1929 'Qc A Y 09' LOUBELLE LOUVENA FEEMSTER They laugh that win THE seniors do not know how they could endure the monotony of lessons was not Lou , the informal press-agent of all good movies, present with the latest news of filmland and a worn edition of the Photo-Play , which goes the rounds of the class unless confiscated by an exasperated teacher. 'However, that catas- trophe does not often occur, as the wicked read- ers seem to possess a charm which enables them to assume a saintly and injured expression when necessary. Lou has another thing distinctly her own, and that is her queer laugh. midway between a chuckle and a giggle, which has an odd way of presenting itself when least expected, and an odder way of launching its hearers'into a gale of laughter. In short, Lou is not only a good sport editor for the Catonian . but a good sport herself, which is infinitely more. FRANK LOUIS FIOL Go forth and preach impostures to the world, But give them truth to build on.' ' FRANK, with his jolly and mischievous nature is everybody's friend. Although he is always ready for fun, he is also a good worker when the time comes for work. It has been said that he expects to become a minister and has already invited some to hear him preach, But judging from his devilish nature, we find it difficult to think of his having to be so angelic as a min- ister's profession will necessitate. However, prob- ably he realizes the seriousness of the future and. consequently, is taking life as a joke as long as he can. MILTON ROGER FISHER I never dare to write As funny as I can. SK1NNY is a boy of whom Catonsville can well be proud, for he is not only studious but also present with his little bit of humor. According to his ability in English class he has fine possibilities of becoming an orator, but this will not be, for he has decided to be a druggist. Besides all these fine characteristics, Skinny also plays an important part in athletics. hold- ing down a regular position on the soccer team for more than one year and starring as forward on the basketball team. We all hope Skinny will be as progressive as a druggist as he was in class rooms and athletics. if 2 2 Eg..-

June Bug 4 1929 we .. r MARY JEAN DOBSON D Queen rose of our garden of roses. IF you happen at any time to see a tall, slender. attractive. auburn-haired lass with a happy Hello! for everyone. that is Jean. She is the jolliest and best natured girl in IVB. While her lessons seem to be' the least of Jean's wor- ries, she is much concerned about the place and time of the next game. She is not only a loyal supporter of the varsity teams but also a star forward on the IVB basketball team. She has proved to be a very popular girl among her schoolmates: and. since she plans to become a teacher. we are sure that she will be just as popular with her pupils. PAULINE DRIVER Friendship is a sheltering tree SOME great person has once said that a nick name denotes the fact that its owner is be- loved of many people. Certainly that is true in the case of Polly , as she is called by her comrades. Polly has been with us but two years, as the earlier part of her life was de- voted to making friends in her native Timber- ville. Virginia. Perhaps it may be her southern birth which causes Polly to speak with such a lazy drawl. but. it is her sunny disposition which accounts for her willingness to lend her aid and to smile with such complete enjoyment. No matter what the reason might be, Polly will always be sincerely loved by those who know er. CAROLYN ELIZABETH EULER O, I am stabb'd with laughter ESSE FEMINA! It is an indisputable fact that on first acquaintance with Midge. as Carolyn is littingly called. one most certainly looks down on her. But not for long! What she lacks in height is supplied by an extra amount of per- sonality. In fact Midge's charm is so apparent and irresistible that sooner or later we all feel drawn toward her. And can she giggle? We hear that she has had that peculiar brand of giggle copyrighted-Midge 'id Co. Sole owners. Reg. U. S. Pat. Ofiice. Giggle on Carolyn. if Fggling makes you the Midge whom we all ove. 21

June Bog 1929 we ,E GEORGE CECIL FORD Magnificent spectacle of human happiness WHEN blonde-haired Cece comes around you're due for a laugh for he can think up more wise-cracks than the teachers can think of homework assignments. When not occupied with jokes, he is always talking athletics. Cecil plays every sport in school. and generally makes the teams. From the nrst year on he has been a member of some team at all times and now in his senior year he has played forward on the varsity soccer team. His abundant physical ex- ercise should prove of great value to him later as he expects to become a dentist. DONALD VINCENT FORGAN Blushing is the color of virtue WHAT could make it so warm? Oh, I know. here comes Donald! I might have known it was he. for he is always keeping the school warm by his beautiful blushes. And can he blush! I'll say he can! He just can't help it: they seem to come natural. If you speak about a girl to him, you think his face is on tire. It actually would be if it were not for his Irish grin which seems always to accompany his blushes. But Donald doesn't worry! in fact, he has no need to. because, if nothing else will help him along. those blushes will. EDWARD FOSBURG Wit is the flower of imagination HERE we have the Joke Editor of both the Catonian and the June Bug. Ed knows more jokes than a dozen joke books. and he rarely ever lets a period go by without furnishing some amusement with his funny sto- ries and wisecracks. Moreover, gloom van- ishes like a bubble when 'Ed comes in sight. and he has proved to be an ideal companion on the day that we are worrying about the results of a test. While humor is his strong point, it is not the only thing in which he shines. for he ranks well above the average as a scholar. If school life is a gauge for later life, Ed ought to be more than successful. -..gt 23 ht..-
