Tr)e Crirpsog 3 JOSEPH BUTTERFIELD We thouRlit liim small — but he ' s the ver incarnate. — Twelfth When it came time for us, as Juniors, to elect officers for the class of ' 17, we wisely chose Joe to be our Presi- dent for he was, without a doubt, the best Senior for the position — for he proved to be one of the most successful presidents that has ever been elected — with untiring efforts he was ever watchful of our welfare. Besides de- voting much of his time and attentions to Dorothy and playing the part of Richard Heatherly in the play, he was one of the mcst prominent members of the track team. RUTH JACOBS She is of so free, so kind, so apt, so blessed a disposi- tion, that she holds it a vice in her goodness not to do more than she is requested. — Othello. Ruth, our Vice-President, was one of the most faith- ful workers in the class. Selling tickets and helping with other benefits was her hobby. She was always there when it came to getting good grades and hence she was one of those students appointed to give a speech at com- mencement. She wrote the Class Prophecy and had the part of Mrs. Goodly in the play. JOE ROHRER He seemed in running to devour the way. II Henry IV. Joe was one of the fastest sprinters that G. H. S. has ever turned out . He served faithfully as track captain for two years. He won the gold medal at the Northern Indiana track meet at Gary in 1916, and also bi-ought home a trophy from the Stagg meet at Chicago. The Class elected him treasurer. Rohrer won ten points in the State meet and took points for Goshen. MARY GINGRICH What will-appointed leader fronts us here ' . ' II Henry IV. Mary was with us for only two years, coming from Camden, Ark. We were extremely fortunate in getting a student so qual.fied to become Valedictorian. She wrote the minutes of our Senior meetings and was always a good worker. She delivered a speech at commencement. t ( i . P d % J

- Tr)e CrirpsoQ JOHN GUNTHER Hp returns Splitting the air witli noise. — Coriolanus. Gunther, our Sargeant-at-Arms, was one of the stars of the Baslvetball Team in ' 16 and ' 17. He played the position of full-back on the 1916 Football Team, always hitting the line hard and never failing to smile. He was the only man on the team who had the honor of being placed on the All Northern Indiana eleven. John will be greatly missed next year in all three branches of athletics. He acted Holder in the class play and repre- sented Goshen at Gary in the Oratorical contest, where he won the silver medal. THELMA YOUNG In faith, lady, you have a merry heart! — Much Ado About Nothing. The stubborn spirit of Thelnia Young served well in many cases in upholding the principles of the class. Her class spirit helped the Seniors in their many crises, and the school recognized her as having been a valuable help to them in the four years she was in G. H. S. She was a member of the Glee Club, and needless to say, her voice helped the volume produced. WILLIAM LATTA He was disposed to mirth. — Antony and Cleopatra. Bill ' was a leader in the class and was right there when called upon to make a speech, hence he was chosen to give the Class Oration. He was always interested in class and varsity athletics. He played football in ' 15 and ' 16 and in the latter year he held down the position of quarterback. He showed his executive ability to perfec- tion when he acted as Junior President. Even if Bill couldn ' t sing he was an excellent student and so he was rewarded by having to give a speech at Commencement. He was a good member of the Crimson Staff, holding the important office of Associate Editor. CARLYLE BROWN I ' ll warrant him heart-whole. — As You Like It. Carlyle came from Waterford to favor us by becoming a member of our class. Since then he has always been ready to undertake any task for the benefit of the class. More than once we have been helped out in a pinch b. the timely donation of Carlyle ' s Flivver ' . Carlye was also prominent in class basketball and track. md = = =7= J S
