ALTA M. BACKER A. A., A. L., Honor League, Glee Club, Commercial Club. A quiet tongue shows a wise head. To those who merely know Alta she may seem a bit quiet and reserved, but her many friends will tell you what a jolly companion she 1s. WILSON BALDWIN CBaldyb A. A., A. L., Latin Club, Basketball Team, Annual Staff. From a little spark may breeze a mighty flame. His size, or rather lack of it, is not at all in keeping with Wilson's place in our opinions. Does anyone ask why he holds this place? Perhaps it is his sincerity, or maybe his lively interest. Does anyone say his blush? Baldy made his place on the basketball squad this year and, needless to say, is a player of real ability - what if he did look cute in uniform? RICHARD W. W. BARDES CDz'ckJ A. A., A. L., Annual Staff, Football Team, Manager of Basketball Team, H Club. Chew it after every meal. Everyone knows Dick, the anchor of the Hughes line. His hefty build, coupled with his everlasting grit, has made him the very substance of the team. He is an authority on jokes, old and new, and has a large collection of volumes on laughter-provoking subjects. RUTH LOUISE BARE LRufus'J A. A., A. L., Honor League, Spanish Club, Commercial Club. How poor are they which have not patience! If we should count the value of patience in dollars, Ruth would rank with the Rockefellers, for this is one of her many virtues. She has crept into all our hearts and, once we have gained her for a friend, we are loath to let her escape. ALMA BAUER CSkeetsJ A. A., A. L., Glee Club. Let music swell the breeze. Just imagine Hughes without Alma! She is indispensable in the girls' gym at noon when we want real jazz. Indeed, her musical ability is quite remarkable and she may well sing. as she plays, Who'll take my place? 21

To be of great assistance to all is indeed a worthy trait and Marie is just the girl who is always willing to share her bounteous knowledge with the girls of 217. She is a good student, a loyal friend, and a girl whom all admire. PAUL ASHBAUGH A. A., A. L., Hughes Club, Spanish Club, Old Hughes Staff. 'By llzcir works shall ye know them. You can't keep a good man down, and that's why Paul is always up and going. Whenever he goes into anything, it is with a whole-hearted spirit, which leaves nothing undone. He has taken an active part in the Hughes Club for two years, aiding much in his own way. We shall always remember Paul as a true-blue friend. JOHN H. ASMANN A. A., Art League. For zvlzal cclrc I about lifes troubled pall1? Johnny is always on the spot with a big broad grin and a big loud laugh. He never seems to worry about his lessons, at least he looks as if he hadn't a care in the world. Trouble comes soon enough, why seek it now? says he. HELEN B. AUE A. A., A. L., Honor League, Glee Club, Commercial Club, Salesmanship Club. Lilllcfrit11d fo all Ilzc world. It is true that Helen is a little girl, but her heart cannot be measured by her stature. Even a giant might be proud to have a heart as big as Helen's, for although it holds many friendships now, she will always manage to find room for a few more. JAMES AVEY cBudl A. A., A. L., Commercial Club, Salesmanship Club. U, lhis ll'flI'Hlllfl, Il'lIfll 11 llllllg il is. Bud goes quietly about his work, seeing to it that everything is done well. His lessons are always up to the minute, his friends are devoted to him, and -he has all the requisites for a successful business-inan. 20

IONE DOROTHY BECKER CBeckyD A. A., A. L., Honor League, Glee Club, French Club. 'ASo brimfzll of this merry, vigorous life. Ione is a girl who is always smiling, with a ready hello for everyone she meets. More- over, we all envy her because of her stunning black hair, which makes her look like a feminine Valentino. FLORENCE CHRISTY BEIDLER A. A., A. L., Honor League, Home Economics Club. Patient to perform. Florence is sweet and modest and true to her convictions. Her ideals and principles are of the highest type and have helped to lead many of her friends into happier and straighter paths. She is truly a friend worth having. MILLICENT E. BENDER CMlllJ A. A., A. L., Honor League, French Club, Latin Club. Measured in inches sh.e's not very tall, B ut in good friendship she comes up to them all. Millicent is as attractive and unusual as her name. Her charming manners have endeared her to us all. Then, too, we envy her for her apparently unlimited supply of sweaters. That is, hers 4 and her sister's. ARTHUR L. BENJAMIN CBennyD A. A., A. L., Hughes Club, Old Hughes Staff, Annual Staff, Sages, Swimming Team, Baseball Team, Cheerleader, H Club. I have more understanding than all my teachers. Benny is our hustling cheerleader. When it comes to extracting noise from the vulgar, he can't be beat. Just think of the times you've yelled yourself hoarse, with Benny out in front. Besides his efforts in this capacity, he has been a valuable member of the swimming team. Unfortunately, his ear became infected this year and he was unable to compete in all meets. We certainly wish him better luck for the future. BESSIE LOIS BERGER tBess, Bethyb A. A., A. L., Honor League. Be glad and your friends are many. Bessie's friends must be many, judging from the shower of books that greets her whenever she gets a seat on the car. Where do they all come from? You'll have to ask her that, but our guess is that their owners are attracted as much by her charming personality as the oppor- tunity of getting rid of those precious articles which must not be taken from the schoolroom wit.hout the consent of the teacher. 77
