DENA ELIZABETH BESUDEN A. L., Honor League, Latin Club. A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance. Dena's friendly smile betrays her sunny dis- position. She seems to enjoy a hearty laugh more than anything in the world. Her desire to study nursing and her industry show us her serious side. We are sure that she will find true pleasure in her chosen career. BERTHA C. BISCHOFF tBertJ A. A., A. L., Honor League, Secretary of Spanish Club, Commercial Club. Her eyes as blue as skies, her hair Is countless gold zrlcompa.rable. It seems that nearly all lovely ladies have golden hair and blue eyes, and Bertha is no ex- ception. She is a most ardent worker and, as a result, she has accomplished wonders. The Spanish Club will lose a good secretary when she graduates. GEORGE BLERSCH tYatzj A. L., Commercial Club, Salesmanship Club. He's little, but there's a lot to h'im.', Although George is one of the smallest in our class, his size is not a handicap to him. In spite of his diminutive stature, he shines in gym. He attacks all the work assigned to him in a cheerful manner and we hope that he will keep his books as well in after life as he does now. EVA BLOOM tBabsJ A. A., A. L., Honor League, French Club. He even blessed her with a cheerful dispositfiorz. Eva is a jolly companion who is always joking and laughing. She is ever full of fun, for noth- ing seems to daunt her good nature. We like her for her cheerful disposition which we hope will remain with her through life. FLORENCE A. BOEKLEY fSI'S, Pzuichl A. L., Honor League. A good heart is U letter of credit. Florence has so many lovable qualities that it is impossible to select a few that will describe her adequately. Her friendly spirit will surely brighten all the shadows of her life, which we hope will be a happy one. 24

EDWARD BERCER CEddie, Babel A. A., A. L., Hughes Club. Much study is a weariness of the flesh. Eddie has perfected that much desired sys- tem of dividing his time between work and play. Although he is seldom seen to bend over many books, he is there with the goods in the class- room. We wish we knew the secret of his get-knowledge-quick system. FREDRIKS D. BERGER A. A., A. L., Old Hughes Staff, Sages, Editor of Annual A master in all things. From our position in the valley below, we have often admired Fredriks' name at the tipmost, topmost peak of the Honor Roll. On closer acquaintance, however, we have conceived even more admiration for his sincere and loyal disposition, his boyish frankness, en- viable sense of humor, and capacity for hard, sometimes unpleasant, work, to say nothing of the inimitable way in which he plays a French harp or tells us all to get us a nunneryf' JACK M. BERGOLD tJake, Berryj A. A., A. L., Annual Staff. Manners most adorn knowledge and smooth its 'way through the world. We have always found Jack sincere and cour- teous, a good student and a real gentleman. Without Hurry or bravado, he has easily accom- plished his duties as an Associate Editor of the Annual, and will, we are sure, carry this same faculty for serious work into the more signihcant jobs of life. TOM BERNARD tB'unng, M uttj A. A., A. L., Sages, French Club, Old Hughes Staff, Annual Staff, Football Squad. With thee conversing, I forget all time. We might mention Tom's work on the foot- ball field, his numerous contributions to Old Hughes, and his literary efforts for the Sages, or his clever cartoons and amusing retorts in word fencing. But the result would be phrases alone and not Tom. We shall remember him best, however, with his head cocked a triHe to one side, flashing that little half-quizzical side- long glance, accompanied by a smile which has Eaused a flutter in more than one feminine eart. MARGARET C. BERNET tMargl A. A., A. L., Honor League, French Club. A modest woman is always amiable. Margaret is a dark-haired little girl to whom we are greatly attracted, first by her appear- ance, then by her personality. She is rather reserved, but when we know her better, we are charmed by the naive wit that lurks behind those friendly eyes. We hear that she is also a charming dancer. 23

RICHARD E. BOLTON CDz'ck, Redj A. A., A. L., Athletic Council, Old Hughes Staff, Sages, Football Team, Track Team, Captain of Basketball Team, H Club. A mighiy athlete he. Just how many times do you suppose we've uttered a mighty Red rah! in the course of our high school careers? Wouldn't you hate to count! Red has been a tower of strength tboth figuratively and literally speakingb on practically all of the big Red teams. His captaining of the basketball team left nothing to be desired. Aside from athletics, he is known for his earnest interest and his friendliness to everyone he meets. Here's hoping his future success is proportional to his size! WILMA BORCHERDING fBz'llieD A. A., A. L., Honor League, Glee Club, Sages, Spanish Club. Eternal sunshine setiles on her head. Wilma is charmingly dignified and poised. Gifts of the gods, indeed. Her great friendli- ness, her sense of honor, and her interest corn- mand our love and respect. She can also be extremely humorous as her many friends will assure you. She has the real Hughes spirit which is truly displayed in her interest both in the athletic and social activities of Hughes. LAWRENCE P. BRAND CPatJ A. A., Art League. Ready in heart and ready in hand. Pat comes from College Hill. Perhaps that is why he is so good-natured. He always has a word for everyone. And Pat has pep, too, as was shown when one day he entered 222 mopping his dripping brow, modestly explaining that he had walked to school. BURTIS B. BREESE, Jr. iB?lI'Tj A. L., Athletic Council, Sages, Old Hughes Staff, Annual Staff, Football Squad, Class greasurer, Captain of Track Team, H uh. 'Twas wondrous, the versatilily of the man. Rarely do we find a good athlete an excellent student. But Burr is an exception to this rule, to say the least. His work on the athletic field, in the classroom, and along literary lines is all a credit to him. These enviable qualities have made Burr the friend of everyone, even though he has endeavored to extract our cash for two long years. ELIZABETH BRICKEL 1Lz'bbz'em A. L., Annual Staff. Ari is power. We don't see Elizabeth as much as we should like, for she spends much of her time at art school. The Annual Staff has been very glad to have her services and hopes some day to hear great things from her. 25
