THELMA E. BAUERSFELD CBettyJ A. A., A. L., Honor League, Girl Scouts. I n mine eye she is the sweetest lady that ever I looked on. Most of us admire Thelma from a distance and often think we'd like to know her, but somehow not many of us have had the opportunity. We do know lots about her, however, her untiring war work and her quaint little humorous speeches, for example. JOHN ALBERT BECKER Uaekj A. A., A. L. The ornament of a modest, quiet spirit. Slow but sure is Jack's motto. We recall the race between the hare and the turtle. Although it takes Jack longer to translate the Aeneid than it took Virgil to write it, he gets the translation. And this, after all, is the main thing. Many are the friends of this fellow of upright character and quite manner, and these know his perseverance will carry him high, whatever he undertakes. GERTRUDE M. BELL CGertJ A. A., A. L., Honor League, Commercial Club, Spanish Club. Hang sorrow! Care will kill d cat: And therefore, let's be merry. With her slender figure, her pretty brown hair, and her lovely face, Gert makes a very attractive appearance. Her dancing, sparkling, bright eyes have brought her many admirers. She is a good dancer and delights in this recreation. If we wish to find her during lunch, the first place we go is to the gym, and nine cases out of ten she will be there. JEANETTE BERTRAM A. A., A. L., Honor League, Sages, Latin Club. I can do with my pencil what I know. Jeanette is quite a hunter. A hunter of what? A hunter of thrills. She always has something new and thrilling to tell, which will make you smile in spite of yourself, even on Monday morning. Some of her heroes are movie actors, whose identity we dare not tell. But to be truthful Jeanette does very good work in school, and her talent in drawing has already brought honor to both herself and Hughes. l24l

RICHARD BAHMAN, JR. QSltmD A. A., A. L., President of Boys' Glee Club, Sages, Hughes Club. A sunbearn on a wtrttefs dayfl Slim is as cheerful as he is tall. And that's saying a great deal, for we are quite willing to nominate him as the most elongated specimen in Ohio. Slim is always grinning or ready to make mischief, even when he is a-hunting, which is quite often. To say he sings like a nightingale would not be exactly correct, yet Slim has a very meloclious bass Voice. If we owned an opera company, we'd try to engage you, Slim. FRANK C. BANCROFT, JR. CBudD A. A., A. L., Hughes Club, French Club, Old Hughes Staff, Sages, President of Senior Class. A light urtto our path. In Bud we find the man of public affairs ex- emplified. In his speech, in his energy, and in his executive ability we all feel ready to place our implicit trust. And we have never been disap- pointed. To possess conscious authority and to be approachable and attractive as Bud, is truly an art. Last year and this, he has led our class, and modesty forbids us to state how well we have done under that leadership. MARY ISABELLE BARRETT Ustej A. A., A. L., Honor League, Home Economics Club. A tender heart, a loyal mimi. Isabelle is one of our little girls. She is an irrepressible giggler and can smile even when an English exam is approaching which, of course, speaks for itself. Isabelle, we love you because of your straight-forwardness and your loyalty, and we know that you are a friend on whom we can depend. Your bright smile and cheery disposition will never be forgotten by your classmates. ROSA G. BASLER A. L., Honor League, Commercial Club, French Club, Old Hughes Staff. Her sweet eyes rtch th youth, Are like her lips that tell the truth. An ardent lover of both prose and poetry, Rosa has learned the entire Ancient Mariner and Gray's 'fElegy besides many other poems, but do not suppose that she devotes all her time to English, for she excels in many other things especially in friendship-making. Her faithful work in writing stories, poems, and auditorium sessions for Old Hughes have helped to make it a success. l23l

WILLIAM F. BISCHOFF QBishj A. A., A. L., Hughes Club, Annual Staff. Unextingnished laughter shakes the skies. Although lxVilliam is one of the smallest fellows in the class, he has more than done his share of 22's work. He never misses a game, provided that he is able to leave the library and allow it to check up on its own books. As a member of the Humor Staff, he has found a place to display his ability to bring a laugh. Judging from his success elsewhere, he will not fail. ESTELLE BLACHSCHLEGER CTeddyD A. A., A. L., Honor League, D. D's. I am a woman, When I think, I ninst speak. Here is one of our Nearly birds . There is very little danger of her being tardy, for she is in school every morning at seven-thirty. Her example has proved that it is profitable to get up early, for she is always happy and care-free. In the morning is the best time to study is one of Teddy's doctrines. EUGENE BLACHSCHLEGER CGenej A. A., A. L. Diligence is the mother of good fortune. Gene never has time to join clubs because he is too busy with work. He is the court of last resort in French and History for his puzzled classmates, who feel themselves invited by this pleasant, ready smile to invoke his aid. DORRIS BOCKENKAMP CDottyj A. A., A. L., Honor League, Commercial Club, Salesmanship Club. The glory of ajirm, capaeions mind. How we did miss Dorris when she was forced to stay out of school because of her operation. We never were sure of the accuracy of the absence list while she was gone. But not only because of that did we miss her. Her sweet, smiling face has had a strange influence over us. She makes us look upon the brighter side of life, and when misfortune comes, she is right on the spot to help us with her deep sympathy. With your practical views and executive ability we are sure that you will be a success, Dorris. l25l
