HOWARD ssaeeC VaR: “Well, I don’t believe it.” Saint is not what his name implies. Wher- ever he is, you’ll surely find an outbreak of that famous American disease, nerves. He employs his time in thinking up original pranks and vaudeville hits. But his presence in a room is like a light in the darkness, for he is always sure to attract attention. Boys’ Glee Club ’29, ’30, ’31; Stage Lights, Class Play; Refreshment Committee, Senior Reception. HERBERT STEARNS “Now, that’s the limit!” Here is our big, strong he-man. An ex- cellent athlete, he is noted for his determination in sports and studies. He is one of those rare persons who can combine extra curricular ac- tivities with studies, and excel in both.

And, believe it or not, we’ve never seen her peacefully reclining in a chair even for a minute. Glee Club ’29; Usher, Class Play; Latin Club, ’29; Basketball ’29, ’30, ’31; Usher, Senior Reception. RALPH STRANG “You don't say!” We'll wager that Strang is the calmest boy in the class. Ralph has won fame during his school life by his numerous sketches and caricatures.

WILLIAM ROTELLA “T don’t believe you.’ Billy evidently believes that men should have the same rights as women in so far as changing the mind gozs. He certainly does exercise this right as far as vocations are con- cerned. He decides on a different one every day of the week. Curtain, Class Play; Baseball Manager ’31; Chairman, Class Gift Committee ’31; Debating Club ’28; Athletic Committee ’31; Decorating Committee, Senior Reception.

Dramatic Club ’28, ’29, ’30; Typist, Copy- reader, “Green Parrot’; Pro Merito; Usher, Class Play; Decorating Committee, “Green Parrot” Party.

Collector 7830, 731; Committee, “Green Parrot” Party; Adver- tising, Ye Yeare Booke. EOUISE SOLDANI “Hey, listen.” Nothing under the sun can erase Louise’s smile. She has teeth that would make a Hawaiia n green with envy. Louise could talk steadily for hours without our being aware of the time. Reason? She’s interesting. Dramatic Club ’28; Glee Club ’29, ’30; Typist, “Green Parrot”; Decorating Committee, Senior Reception; Candy Committee, Class Play. MARY SOUZA “T could have died laughing.” If giggling were a crime, Tiny would sure- ly be a master criminal. With her around, the hours seem like minutes. Mary is an excellent seamstress.

ALLEN TUCKER “Who said so?” Al is an all-round good fellow, who has won well-deserved recognition as leader of “The Collegians”. ‘Smile and the world smiles with you”, Tucker says as he taps his foot to the tune of his snappy orchestra.

MARION ULM “Aw, that’s crazy!’ Marion excels in the rare art of listening. If there were more girls like Marion, talkative people wouldn’t complain so much. Another thing—she can laugh at jokes. Come on, you after-dinner speakers! Domestic Science Club ’28; Latin Club ’28, 29, ’31; Girls’ Glee Club ’28, ’29; Decorating Committee, Senior Reception; Ticket Commit- tee, Class Play. CHAPIN WARREN Uthai sine. Chapie is a most ardent believer in silence; indeed, he is the true personification of taci- turnity. But haven’t we heard of “strong, si- lent hombres” before? Glee Club ’28; Gold piece, Latin ’29; Re- freshment Committee, Senior Reception; Prop- erty Committee, Class Play. LAURA WESTHAVER “Gracious Peter!’ Laura’s chief weakness, of course, is book- keeping. How often have we seen her sur- rounded by hopeless individuals, trying to find their way through a trial balance! And then, as Laura explains and helps them, they turn away with a bright smile only to turn back again in a few minutes. But Laura’s smile is even brighter for she delights in helping be- wildered classmates.
