CM HWJW Wfffcfwcfvf .ffimlcifwbg ARO L WINSLOW-College Preparatory-Credits 34-Carol, the Madame Butterfiy of June, '15, has, as her name suggests, been Hitting in and out of the limelight of the class since its entry to the High School. She has taken no active part in the affairs of the school. but has always been an enthusiastic supporter of the class. She takes the role of Anne Belle Page in Polly Primrosef' ALTER H. TREUSCHEL-College Preparatoryeflredits 33 4-5.- Walter is another representative of the virtues of country life. Although he has never actively participated in athletics nor orator- ical contests, Walter's long suit is Geometry and English Literature, and, of course, being a German, he is the shining light of Miss Thayer's classes. Walter's chief outlet for his pronounced humor f?J is the class business meetings, in which he insists on seconding every motion which is made. ORA C. ZIESEL-College Preparatory--Credits 34-Lora, who is an in- fiuential member of the class, the power behind the throne, so to speak, is the orator of the class, having taken second place in the local contest of 1914, and third in the year.

1 ERBERT SNYDER-English-Credits 31 4-5-Some time day we ex- pect to hear that Herbert has become a wood-cartoonist, for he has displayed great ability in both the professions of wood-turning and cartooning. As a class member, Herbert has always been noted for his jollity and interest in all of the class affairs, and we wish to thank him heartily for his active and efficient work on the 1914 Entertainment Com- mittee. ORA MARIE STARK-College Preparatory-Credits 32 1-5-'Tis rare good fortune in this old world of ours that there are a few girls like- Marie, for she is the sort who doth the little things that most of us leave undone. Does her small sister desire a bothersome example un- twisted? 'Tis Marie who comes to the rescue. Are there household tasks to be done? Willingly, Marie lends her assistance. Is she a member of the church choir? Well, then she is present at every practice and every service singing with a right, good Will. Marie has not always found it pos- sible to meet with us in class affairs for, be it known, she is one who, when pleasure and duty clash, will not let duty go to smash -and les- sons and home duties have come Iirst. An excellent example for some of the rest of us if we but knew it! ALTER C. STINSON-English-Credits 32-Every class which grad- uates from E. H. S. can not boast of a young biologist who has col- lected, mounted, and owns one of the finest collections of butterflies found in this vicinity, but in Walter, the 1915 Class has just such a person. Besides, Walter has made duplicate collections, through the exchange of which, with other enthusiasts in various parts of the country, he now has specimens of butterflies from all over the United States. Skill and persist- ence are two very necessary characteristics in butterfly hunters, and these Walter possesses and exercises not only in his favorite pastime, but in pur- suing the subjects set down in the High School curriculum.

' 1 P 4 i 1. ff ff ,- mn. 14,0-M4 VAN WEAVER-College Preparatory-Credits 40 1-5-It is safe to , say that Van holds the record for credits in E. H. S. In fact, five subjects and music became a tirmly fixed habit with him at the be- ginning of his Sophomore year, only to be broken during the last semester of his Senior year on account of his arduous duties as Editor-in-Chief of The Pennant. Van's activity on The Pennant began in the spring of 1914, when he was made Assistant Business Manager, and through his per- severance and strict attention to business won the admiration of the staff and his classmates. During 1914 and 1915 he has been Editor-in-Chief, and some idea of his good judgment and etiiciency may be gained from the fact that the Class President made him Chairman of the Senior Pennant Committee, with power to choose his own committee.
