ELEANOR M. PESCOSOLIDO PESKY “Personality is the first rung up the ladder of success.” Our vivacious Pesky, with her good natured and gen- erous ways, has added a certain spark to our school. There’s going to be an empty space in our cheerleading squad when she leaves us. An earnest worker with a winning way, her friend iness and pleasing personality will be definite assets to her in the future as they were at M. H. S.

RAYMOND KNIGHT Ray “He was so tall—ah, so tall!” If in strolling through the corridors of M. H. S. you suddenly encounter a pair of knees, you might, after craning your neck, be able to discern the face of Ray Knight. Distinguished by ever-ready laughter and will- ingness to help, Ray has made himself a welcomed student and friend. His mind is filled with the intricate “acts of mathematics and E'squwire. We sincerely hope you will find success in the engineering’ field! Class Play, Prop.; Math Club 4; Science Club 4; Literary 4; A.A. 3, 4; Track 4. EMILY I PETERSON PETE Fair maid, be not so shy. After three years’ association with Emily we’ll re- member her as a quiet well mannered individualist who was aiways like a fashion plate. Her willingness to help others and her fine school spirit are two of her many character- istics. Writing those long, but ah! so-o-o sweet letters to Fred is her favorite pastime, but definitely! Em is plan- ning to gain a knowledge of clothes buying at Chamber- lain, and with her fashion-wise intellect we know she’ll achieve her ambition.

When you hear this clear, melodi- ous, unfaltering voice as you raise the telephone to your ear, you'll know it’s Mel! Besides giving “wrong num- bers,” Mel likes the great outdoors, spending her leisure moments cycling and swimming. At home she is a master of the culinary arts. (Please note,—boys).
