BARBARA ARNOLD GIBBINS Brains, beauty, and boys can all be attributed to Bobbie. Her wonderful capacity for A's seems unlimited and you can always find one of her literary masterpieces in the Review. When not occupied with the Council, of which she is president, Buttons can be found blush- ing at the wrong end of Mr. Obourn's humor, or arguing with determination for the Student Federalists. Nevertheless, Gibby's chief claim to fame was her very wonderful decorations for the Prom which will aways be remembered as The most beautiful ever. Her distinguished performances as Lady Brackmell in THE IM- PORTANCE OF BEING EARNEST, and as star left halfback on the Varsity hockey team also will never be forgotten. We now forgive Bob- bie's very apparent absent-mindedness: after all, there is an extremely tall, dark distraction! FREDERICK BEMIS LUYTIES Rick joined our class in the lunior year and his presence has been felt ever since. Lu- wheaties, as he is called by Mr. Obourn, is one of Mr. Weinrich's stalwarts. Rick is a very good-naturecl fellow, and often may be seen driving a group of seniors around in his blue Ford convertible. He is quite a talented ath- lete, a fact proved by his feats in golf, tennis, and basketball. He tried to introduce polo as a new activity in the Physical Education De- partment, but when Gov saw him cantering on the new sod, polo was eliminated. As a result Rick took touch football and demonstrated his really remarkable punting ability. His greatest asset is a grand smile. We understand that he has aspirations to become a Hollywood star. My kingdom for ex hone! The biggest fish on the Obe's line. Nggr BARBARA ARNOLD GIBBINS TENTH GRADE: A Hockey, A Soccer, Glee Club, Scul- pture, Party Committee.

Laney's diverse talents and accomplishments are boundless. He writes, draws, plays a remarkable horn, and loves automobiles. He has participated in many school activities in many schools. Laney has led many of the Burroughs entertainment pro- grams and has been one of the best of Mrs. Gillan's performers. When not engaged in pur- suing his studies, Laney may be found at his farm, where he occasionally takes exercises by shooting turtles. Laney's passionate zeal for the detective novel and his barely bearable baritone are the basis for some witty asides ot his colleagues, which Laney seems to enjoy as much as his fellows. With his wealth of per- sonality and talent, Laney is an asset to any gathering and a sure thing to go places in life. IAMES ROBERT KEARNEY Ill lim Bob is best known for his unlimited acquaintance with the piano. Having mastered the art of Hot lazz, he has moved on to com- posing. This year he wrote a Iazz column for the World. He did an excellent job in the play Spring Dance, and increased the member- ship of the l. C. by one. lim is also notorious for the number of excursions he has made to various parts of the U. S.: these he lightly terms as his doings Nevertheless, with his many diversions, he continues to bring down honor grades, a feat which startles the faculty into submission. Iim's talents have given him in- numerable friends and admirers, all of whom say that he will certainly become the class millionaire, if kept away from forbidden auto- mobiles and marked cards. That is cz heck of cx note! Go Welt, young man! Page Twenty-Six

EDGAR I-IASSELL MCCULLOCH Ever been near the Burroughs oval on a spring day? If so you've probably noticed Ed smoothly gliding around the track with seem- ingly no effort. Ed is the recipient of enough awards-track, sportsmanship, and otherwise, to paper his room. Besides track, Ed was one of the hardest working players on the football and championship soccer teams. As Chief lus- tice of the Student Court, he handled the court proceedings with just the right amount of firm- ness and dignity to win the respect of all, de- fendants and reporters alike. In dramatics, Ed's portrayal of Earnest in The Importance of Being Earnest added another laurel to his crown. ln spite of all this activity, Ed has been one of the leaders in social activities and one of the top students in the class from way back. MARILYN IOY GLIK Ioy is one of those amazing persons who hasn't an enemy in the world. She's every body's friend and a gal one can depend upon, whether it's to lead the A basketball team to victory or to fill capably a job such as Senior Editor of the Year Book. Gaudi pulls in prac- tically all A's so easily that it staggers us all. She will always be remembered for her fine leadership as President of the Outer Choir, and also for the impressive acting abil- ity she has shown in dramatics, We contin- ually find ourselves, when in a tight spot, say- ing, Oh, I don't know. Ask Ioy. With so many fine qualities we feel sure Ioy will go on being the pride of our class, and our parting words to her are, See ye around! 171 Let'l go. Hagee!
