X.: ohn Badousek Maori Breunsbach Leonard Cornell Edna Eddy jack Birkctt Leona Brant xorie French lf.dward Keyser Vernon Lunsford Harold Parker X. All Sports Queen? Virginia is not only liked by the boys.-Her merry smile and happy ways make friends where ever she goes. Now is the time to usher in Edna Eddy who is a friend to all. Her willingness to cooperate and take part in all activities has re- sulted in every one depending upon her, There are many things that Edna likes, such as singing and knitting. This ambitious girl al- ways enters into everything with a forcefullness and independence not equalled by others. In speaking of independent spirits we must not forget Robert Willson who played an important part in both football and basketball. Bob also had a special interest in the Hi-Y club as a cabinet member. His happy-go-lucky disposition and original ideas certainly didn't make him pass unnoticed in C. V. H. S. This good old high school is proud to announce Freda Theis as the girl who ranks high in grades. lt is said that the wise person is not the one who talks a lot. Per- haps this is the reason that we do not hear Freda elaborating quite as much as some of the rest of us. She has a natural wit and is bound to make the mark. On your mark-set-go Charles Taylor who entered C. V. from Texas must have acquired some of his striking personality from one of those Texas cowboys. Known to the school as a versatile athlete and a real fellow, Chuck is a husky example of a A'man's man in the outdoor manner. Vernon Lunsford is another mans man type senior. Not only has he been active in sports but he has held important places in Hi-Y and the P and G affairs. Although A'Vernie is rather re- served and quiet we have been told that he may be depended upon to do as good as the next fellow in any project that he may undertake. The projects that Celeste Meyer undertakes always fas you can imaginej are accomplished excel- lently. She is the only blond of the senior class and she knows how to make the G. R. parties never seem dull. The snaps in this book show how much imagination this young lady possesses. Can you imagine?- Edward Keyser has gone to College View school for thirteen years counting of course kindergarten. Although he is not one of us who blows around about his accomplishments, we all know that he keeps his mind on his own business and if this is any sign 'at all, Ed will be sure to com: out ahead, Myrtle Porter is also 0,10 who heads the class. A petite brunette who lends her voice along with the rest of the Pep Club is sure not to be lagging in spirit and Myrt certainly is not. She was on the G. R. cabinet and we know she did her duty. Her fine personality is a great asset. Our senior class has many great personalities, for instance Virgil Williams, who has also gon to College View schools for a good number of years, in fact, his whole school life. Virgil, who is a meme ber of the C. V, club and who was stage manager in the plays Fifn FII

Dorothy Wear, who leads the Student Council, came to College View from Blue Hill 'last year. Her fine scholarship and merry personality have gained her both honors and friends. Unoflicially we would say that Dorothy's hob- by has been attending G. R. city- wide suppers and Hi-Y-G. R. con- ferences. Officially we say that Dorothy's major talent is singing: perhaps her second major is act- ing. fl didn't write this.-D.W.J If acting holds especial lure for you, this is a good time to pre- sent Marjorie French, whose de- lightful characterizations in plays and readings have made her a popular entertainer in C. V. H. S. A clever and humorous writer. Mariorie has also been invaluable to student publications: but clever- ness strengthened with competence has made this senior one of our most active students. Did we say active? Page Clif- ford Thomas, at once. A unanimous choice as editor of the VIEWPOINT, Clifford had already edited the Purple and Gold, during which time his competent writing and sound judgment made him out- Fourteen 4 4 standing. Genuine in his emphasis upon school spirit, Clifford has been a natural and responsible leader of our high school. Speaking of leaders, those Brant twins certainly are capable. More conscientious workers can- not be found for these two pep club members always do their best. As G. R. president, Leona is tops. and Sethyne keeps the nickels and pennies straight as the class treas- urer. They truly make good twins, for they not only look alike but they also like practically the same things. Another president in the class of '37 is Leonard Cornell who pre- sides at all of the Hi-Y meetings. It must not be forgotten that- this small, brilliant, young fellow was also the junior class president. Leo- ard always does his part and con- sequently is in demand for a large number of responsible positions. Position, you say! Iohnny Badousek as football captain cer- tainly filled that place well. This small, sturdy fullback did a lot for our team, for his hard plugging and ambition helped to keep our spirits high. johnny's congenial ways IEAQCHQAQAQQ A G vsethfne' Brain will win for him many friends. When it comes to friendly peo- ple, Ianette Vanderslice is one of the best, for I have never heard her say a cross word and certainly she never looks gloomy. Although naturally not talkative, Ianette makes up for it by being such a good listener. By the way, have you ever listened to Irene Henson? Her out- standing talent is drama. So clev- erly does she portray characters that we who listen imagine that she is really another person. This scholarly young girl is one of the peppiest of the Pep Club. She is the least in age but by no means the most insignificant. That reminds us of Maurice Breunsbach who certainly is not to be slighted. Not only is he be- hind the C. V. Club as president but he was also back of those sound effects in both of our class plays. Maurice's good-natured dis- position is most likely a cause for his popularity. Oh! to be popular-Virginia Badousek doesn't need to Worry about this for wasn't it the boys themselves who elected her for

produced by this class of '37, certainly is not to be slighted. Wilma Sherman is a senior who is a conscientious worker. For three years Wilma played the violin in the school orchestra. By working hard, this loyal girl earned a letter and so was made a mem- ber of the Pep Club. For one who studies so diligently, there should be success. Well, if here isn't Buryl Wright, that sandy haired fellow who was assistant football coach while but a junior. He has been a Hi-Y member for four years and says that he has a lure for mechanics. lust between you and me, we all like his jolly grin. In speaking of Buryl we think of Merle Schneider, who also has ability along the mechanical and carpenter line. The last semester of his senior year, Merle has worked as a delivery boy in a grocery store, but he joins the rest of the class for graduation. Well who would have thought it? We have a new girl, Georgia Noakes, who came from Beatrice, Nebraska, just about six weeks be- Sixteen 1. fj - . lf' Celeste Meyer Georgia Noakes fore graduation in time, in fact, for the banquet fbaccalaureatej and all the other events attended by the seniors. With the small class we have, it's fine to have a new member, From what we've noticed so far, she will not lack for friends, Also in our midst is Harold Parker, handsome Ace Club cap- tain. Harold is not obtrusive but is a good follower and in this day and age we need good fol- lowers. We know that he likes music and that he plays the violin in our school orchestra. Another reserved senior is lack Birkett. At least he seems so or- dinarily. I-le likes to drive a car and the kids like to ride with him. No matter how hard he played football, his sleek black hair was always as smooth as Robert Taylor's. Last but surely not least we pre- sent Duard Henderson, the senior class president of this class of '37. Duard showed us that he can act by his portrayal of Nicodemus, the negro laborer, in our junior class plav, Duard also has a lot of Clit-ford Thomas Janette Van Derslxce athletic ability and has participated in many such events. The only post-graduate student from last year's class is Faith Lawrence, whose excellent scholar- ship resulted in .her membership in the National Honor Society and also being given the title of saluta- torian. Quiet and certainly cap- able, Faith has made a most favor- able impression in C. V. H. S. and we were glad that she could be with us one more year.
