ELSMORE AUSTIN “Oh, Lord!” Elzie is one of our most agreeable and cheerful boys. Shall we ever forget when his boyish expression turned into that of a stern bishop in the class play—or when, on rainy days, he trudged to school with the faithful “Pedro” at his heels? “Bishop”, Class Play; Press Club 28; Science Club ’29; Decorating Committee, Senior Reception; Masquerade Party.

CYRIL BELLAVANCE “Yeah? Well, you're mistaken!” Although quiet and unassuming, Belly never remains in the background.

FOREWORD It was thought that the senior year book would mean more to the students and to the alumni if it were to bear the same name every year; therefore, the present staff, after consultation with the presidents of the two lower classes, has chosen Ye Yeare Booke with the hope that the following classes will continue to call their year book by this name. In Ye Yeare Booke the staff has turned the spotlight of public- ity upon the members of the Class of 1931. “he snapshots, statistics, and “household furnishings” add a personal touch, which will recall pleasant memories to us twenty-five or thirty years from now when we read over old papers. To compile the records contained in Ye Yeare Booke of 1931 has been to the staff a great pleasure.
