Taye 24 'The :AMETHYST JOHN SYMONDS CUNNINGI-IAM Johnnie Hobby, Studying Sport Page. Track Class 3: VVashmgton Club 4: Radio Club 2. 3. University of Maine. John is the boy who has perfected to a high degree the art of leaving home at ten minutes after eight in the morning and still never being late for school. That. however. is not John's only accomplishment, for he is known to be one of the best students in Mr. Bean's fifth and sixth period class of test tube breakers. John is headed for the University of Maine, and we know that he will succeed there just as he has succeeded here in Deering. Anyway, we wish you the best of luck, John, both at college and throughout your entire future. MAE CURTIS Glee Club 3: Washington Club 4. To knit and spin was once a girI's employment, But now to dress and have a beau is ull a girI's enjoyment. Mae believes otherwise, however. She has informed us that she is going to be an old maid and live in a white house on a hill with a cat and a canary. Well, good luck, Mae, and long life to the canary! HARRIETTE EVELYN DAVIS I-lat, Hobby, Athletic Games. Basketball. Varsity 4. Class 3 and 4: Geology Club 4: Glee Club 3: Washington Club 4. The Weylister. Hat. we think, has the most contagious laugh in Deering. Everyone who knows her wishes that more girls would come out here from Portland, if they are all as good-natured as she. For the two years she has been with us she has accomplished much. She is a good side-center on the basketball team, and we hear she is becoming quite a biology student. We wish you success at Wey- lister. Hat. MARSHALL DAVIS, JR. Doony, Doon. Track 3, 4. Class 3: Cross Country 4: D Club 4: Radio Club 3. Bowdoin. National Honor Society. If you want a cross-country record broken, look around for Marshall, for he certainly knows his stuff .when it comes to running distances. Marshall not only excels in both cross country and indoor track, but also in his studies. You have done a great deal for the school. Marshall, and we're proud to be able to say that you are a member of our class. With regrets we say good- bye, but with whole-heartedness we say good luck. Nou. 22.
