Latin Club ’29; Usher, Class Play; Ticket Committee, Reception; Pro Merito Society. IRVING GREEN Greeni€ Is he popular? Such a silly question! Of course he is or we wouldn’t have elected him our president for three years. His fa- vorite color is red—why, we can’t imagine. We hear that he is going to be a lawyer, and we predict that he will become famous.

JOHN DANFORTH HOLMES Holmesie Well, at least there is one person in our class who will do something in the agricultural world. Johnnie is going to perfect the seedless cucumber.

OLYMPIA MARIE DePRIZIO Olee “Olee” is going to publish two books, “Why T atin Should Be Studied in High School” and the “Pleasures Derived from Reading Caesar and Cicero.” These will be written mainly to oppose Marie’s literary efforts entitled, “Latin Should Be Studied in College Only” and “‘The Boredom of Reading Caesar and Cicero.” These four books are the outcome of their endless debates about Latin.

HENRY STAINSLAW HOUGHTON JAHennie Hennie is the most athletic boy in the class. Do you remember him as the big, hand- some officer in “Seven Keys to Baldpate”? We wondered for a while why he went to school at 7:30 A, M., but now we know that he :nust hike around the block before school. Hennie will probably be a cowboy and live on a ranch.

JOHN IRVIN HOUGHTON Johnnie Johnnie is only one of his nicknames. Buimp and Caesar (small but mighty) are the other two. We would like to know where the “calf” that we hear so much about came from. Bump was such “a good little mayor” in the class play that he will probably hold that office some day in a city like Manstield. Class President ’28; Secretary, A. A. ’28; President A.

MARIE FRANCES LEARY Marie Here is Marie, the most energetic girl in the class. She deserves this title because of the efficient way in which she handled the edit- ing of “The Log’.

She is going to remodel the fashions for high school girls in the future.
