PAULINE ESTHER CRUTTS Science Club 2, 33 O Lovely Night 45 King Harold -1-3 Wreck of the Hesperus 2, 33 Hero and Leander 25 On Shore and Sea 2g The Lady of Shalott . Among the gifts which are most appreci- ated are firmness and truth. Our little Paul- ine possesses these qualities which have won her our love and admiration. It is too great a task to enumerate all of Pauline's virtues which are so numerous. The High School students and many outsiders find her an agreeable companion and a faithful friend. It is her plan to attend Business School next year and our good wishes for success go with her. RUTH T. DANNS Lefty Ruthie Tu'incr VVreck of the Hesperusn 3g Lady of Sha- lott 23 0 Lovely Night 3g King Haroldu 3g 'On Shore and Sea 45 King Rene's Daughter 4. Four short years ago this fair young lady came to us from that famous school. Fali Creek! Lefty is an all-around good sport and always willing to help in making this old world a better place to live in. Ruthie has done well despite her tendency to QKlnapCpl now and then. Ruth leaves her Alma Mater to go to the Rochester Dental School. VVell, Lefty, the illustrious Class of '28 wishes you the best of luck. FREDERICK CRYSLER Fred Freddie Gentle breezes were blowing on that Sep- tember morn when Freddie first joined these ranks. Gentle breezes, too, have wafted that fair-haired and smiling countenanced youth three successful years of Latin, French, and all that makes a man . Meanwhile he Rhoda 'round the back-stage and became quite a Hopper when the art of making scenery stand up was necessary. VVhat would we have done without Fred? VVhat will we do when he begins to bother the leaves on the hill? ROSARIA D ELAURENTIS No doubt about it! Rosaria has decided to leave us. Four years ago, a gust of wind dropped this demure little maiden in our midst. Since then, the breeze has continued, dumbfounded everyone with whom it came into contact. It will take a long time before we regain our consciousness. Rosaria is another of those business maidens who are seeking a position under Uncle Sam.

PAUL JAMES CORGEL Paul FUI To look at this beaming face is to gaze into the countenance of the future President of the United States. Paul is no ordinary boy. VVho could miss him in library, sur- rounded by a lot of mates l?l whom he never had met before? In such a crowd, he looks like a diamond among pebbles. Aside from these attractions, Fat does not get many benefits from his school career. In fact, he so detested studying that he graduated in january. The class of '28 extends its best wishes for success in his undecided future career. lil.-RRY ELLEN CRANDALL lthetaeria 3, 45 Science Club 43 Lady of Shalott 2: Wreck of the Hesperus ' 23 On Shore and Sea 4-g King Rene's Daughter -l. Although this child is a quiet one LU she is very well liked. She holds the distinction of being on the honor roll-so you see what kind of a girl Mary is! VVe can just imagine Mary, the big hearted scout, with her little brownies trailing along behind her while she patiently explains what they eagerly wish to know. All joking aside, Mary is a good friend and when she leaves us this june we all wish for her the best of luck and sincerely hope her days at Cornell will be as pleasant as those at Ithaca High.

Hear that spontaneous giggle? 'I'hat's Marie, one of our best examples of a charming personality. Every once in a great while she gets Riley but she's soon over it. Midge almost decided to write a book on the science of note throwing but gave this up in favor of studying Budlsl. She has been asked several times to tell the secret of her success in studies without study- ing but she was afraid a stampede might result so she modestly declined. VVe know that this little shining light will succeed in all that she does, so all we hope is that she will not forget the members of the Class of 1928. HARLAND B. CRISPELL UDHIWU You know, and so do I, the brightest young man in Slaterville Springs. VVhy? Because only four short years ago Dave ap- peared among us, and is now leaving with an Engineering Course to his credit. Dave is not satisfied with a high school education, however, and plans to seek more knowledge later on. Besides being studious, Dave is a great boy for Speed, and when he drives the trattor to the filling station all the cop: and Iroopers in Tompkins County are on his trail. E261

,,,, RICHARD Douoa Dirk After a span of four for perhaps fivel years, the walls of Ithaca High will cease to reflect the figure of Dick, the budding speed-boy. He took his turn at track in his junior year. and has been running ever since. Dick wishes that some one would write a book entitled, How to bluff one's way through school. He has many helps for such a person. But, as he is going on the Hill next year, we know that he is in- telligent. FR.1xNcEs DUTKY ..Fmn ., 'tKing Harold 3: Hockey 23 Tennis 2, 3: O Lovely Night lg VVreck of the Hes- perus 25 Lady of Shalott' 23 Alice in YVonderIand lg Basketball 23 Home Room Reporter -I-g German Club 4. Miss Dutky is as usual disturbing me. This statement is heard throughout the school when Fran appears. She has been called: The greatest talker of the 20th cen- turyf' Surely the librarian can verify this statement. Laying all joking aside, however, Fran is a little cherub. What a reputation she has for writing themes! I wonder if she writes such lovely letters as she does themes? WVe hope so, for we may envy a certain young CH down in the ole South. 'LFran isn't in many clubs for the simple reason that nobody knows what a sweet girl she is, and what a good friend she always proves to be. VVe all wish her the best of luck, whether she enters Cornell in the fall, or goes South to live. 28 GL.-xDYs M. DR1scoLL Red Sunshine VVhenever you hear exclamations of Oh, what beautiful red hair! you may be sure that Red is somewhere around. Her favorite expression is 'Oh, Yaby , she de- lights in punishing the typewriter and her favorite indoor sport is deciphering short- hand. She is one of those rare people whose shorthand can be read by othersg and this, added to the fact that she can spell renais- sance right the first Hb time, entitles her to a leather medal, we think. Seriously speaking, Red is all right and we know that wherever she goes she will continue to live up to the nickname of sunshine . H ARRY Dwoasm' Harry VVell, of all things, if Harry isn't going to graduate! Some hidden inspiration must have driven him on to higher aspirations so that he could graduate with only a live year record behind him. Nevertheless, we know how hard Harry has worked to shake himself of study, although seemingly hope- less. VVe suppose that Harry is going to devote his life to either carpentry or butch- ering, and wish him the best of luck in his future career.
