RUBY HOOPER Basket Ball 19, 205 Athenian. Ii' anyone is looking for a modern Sampscn, we have one here. Ruby has been a star guard on our Basket Ball team for three seasons and everyone who over saw her play remembers how she sure can jump. However, this year she had hard luck and whenever we heard a tap, tap, we knew it was Ruby with her crutches. Although sometimes quiet, when Ruby gets started it is better than vaudeville to hear her, May all the luck in the world be yours. NEVIN CAIN Conn's studying is usually a very hasty procedure, con- ducted on the way down the corridor to his recitation- room. However, the fates have been kind to Nev., as his stock of common sense is large enough to enable him to make a good bluff, when called upon by some inquisitive Prof. We are expecting Conn to pub- lish a book entitled Cain's ABC of Motoring, for one can usually find him around the garage. TREVOR SHORE Personal Editor, Oracle, The Cassilis Engagementf' The Rejuvenation of Aunt Mary. Here is one of those fellows who believes in taking good care of his books-to the extent of seldom removing them from his desk, However, he did get ambitious cnce, and Hremovedy' the books of most of us from our desks and hid them under the stage. Since he has resigned from the American Mustaohe Growers' Asso- ciation, we have more hopes for his future. Trevor has not had any difficulty in proving his nationality s'nce the purchase of his green vest. We hope they will appreciate him at Indiana University next year. t1t's all right, Trevor, we dont mean half of this.J JOHN ORTSTADT Assistant Business Manager, Annual, Basket Ball 19, 203 Track 193 K. Klub. Heroes there have been of Basket Ball fame, In History and Math. they were not game, They martyred their bodies and not their brain, Their skulls were damaged, and so remain. Johnnv recites about once in six weeks. You gather from this that he is an athlete, You have gathered ccrrectly, for Johnny is some athlete. Besides being on the All-Sectional Basket Ball team, he has placed fcr us in more than one track meet. He is also a great favorite with the ladies. Although we fear that John is in love, everyone knows it's Leap Year, and we remember that little black ring, don't we, Peg? Page Twenty two

RUTH OWEN Clionian. Ruth is one of our dcmure maidens who hails from Stroh. No one ever heard her volunteer anything, but she can usually give a good answer when called upon. Having been with us just one year we never became very well acquainted with her, for she has been so quiet. How- ever, we feel sure that those who once gain her friend- ship, really have found something worth while. WALTER DUWAN - When I beheld this I sighed and said, Surely man is a broomstickf' Whatever his physical construction may be we must admit he has a good understanding. Although Walter sometimes decides not to recite he shows the Profs. when it comes to written work. When he is not talking aloud in the assembly, he is reading some high class f?J fiction, Frenchy is an all-around man at the show and spends the most of his time there. RUTH WAGNER Of all the radiating smiles, Ruth's sure takes the prize, for,'no matter how cold your heart is, it will thaw under her smiling glance. This really is a fine thing, for in the summer-time Ruth is quite busy collecting Vice bills. We had heart failure once, because we thought we had lost her, but she came back again. Ruth's fav- orite pastime is driving a Ford, and her chief worry is when the engine begins knocking. ' LU ELLA POPPY Luella has been too busy with a certain young man to take part in all of our social affairs. However, none of us will ever forget that sleigh-ride party we had at her home. As to the young man, we hear it's quite serious, but we're not sure. You know, Luella reminds us of a hickory-nut-the sweetest and best in the world when you get at it. The only sad part is, not all of the class have gotten to it. Page Twenty-one '

MILDRED BARKER Athenian. Mildred came to us from the country and, we think, is a very good representative of that fair land. Mildred and Elsie S. are very good friends and, as the saying is, where one goes the other is sure to go, seems to apply to them. What shall we say of her? Mild of manner. of a studious nature, and always faithful to her duty as a member of her classes. What more could we say? Nothing better, so will say no more. LELAND MILLER ' Orchestra-cornet soloist. If you want someone to do a little tooting for you, come around and see Leland. His musical l?J blasts have filled all of us with ecstacy, just as his intellectual C27 blasts have astonished the instructors. If you call him t'Pewee he doesn't get sore, but only smiles. How- ever, you should have him tell you how it feels to sit on a tack. Pewee believes in that saying about the early bird judging from the zeal and persistence with which he tries to get a date. Favorite expression fbor- rowedl- You tell 'em. WALTER KAISER Basket Ball 17, 18, 195 President K. Klub 195 member Angel Wings Society. On entering High School, Ki did not lose much time in having a date with an upper-classman. One called for more and so you have the story. Whenever Basket Ball is mentioned we remember the year he was cap- tain, to say nothing of those other years. It seems that Ki's favorite expression is, I'll bring that picture next Friday, yes I will. We wander which Friday. Shall we prophesy a doughy future for him? Cheer up, Walter, it isn't so far to Purdue. LESTER OWEN Lester is an exception to the rule. He has lost neither his head nor his heart. The fellows say that he has .never had a date with a girl, and add that he is no worse off, Although Lester is usually quiet, he will open his heart when it comes to talking about Stroh. We feel he would have improved much more had we had him four years instead of one. However, we're glad we had him the one year, for he's been agood student. Page Twenty-th ree
