BANISH SORROW, TO THE GODS BELONGS TOMORROW. Athletic Association, '22-'23g Basket-ball, '22-'24: Football, '253 Pinafcre, '23g Student Council, '24g President 11-C, '25. Roderick is one of the quietest, most unassuming fellows of our class, but when he says something its always worth-while As president of Room 11-C, he's the best yet. In football and basket-ball too, he's en- tirely satisfactory. Nothing can stop him when he gets started and he always accomplishes everything he undertakes. Long Distance EMMETT CREWS FEREBEE If C545 BE NOT THE FIRST BY WHICH THE NEW IS TRI!-SDH NOR YET THE LAST TO LAY THE OLD ASIDE. Pinafore, '23: Cub Football, '22-'23: Football, '24: Baseball, '24-'25: Athletic Association, '23-'24-'253 Basket-ball, '23-'24-'25. Emmett, the hard little guy that cou1dn't be beat in basket-ball by anyone. He is a real sport and indulges deeply in athletics. Books, at least text books, have been among the least of his worries. He is a little bashful, but that has nothing to do with his sense of humor and knowledge. '25 has always found him a courageous, sincere, and good pal. Mute MORRIS SHEPARD PARKER EASE WAS HIS CHIEF DISEASE Pinafore, '23, Morris is the sort of fellow that is different. You have to know him well to understand him. He sel- dom strays from the paths of duty and is a quiet, hard-working student and very diligent in commercial subjects. In his life work, whatever it may be, he will be a go-getter. Morris NANCY LEE LINCOLN HER HEART IS LIKE A GARDEN FAIR, WHERE MANY PLEASANT BLOSSOMS GROW. Pinafore, 23: Student Council, '24-,255 Athletic Association, '22-'23- '24-'25: State Typewriting Contest, '25g Secretary and Treasurer ll-C, '25. Nancy Lee seems demure at a distance, but on closer acquaintance we find that the gods have bestowed on her that priceless possession that they give to few- a sense of humor. At the same time she is dependa- ble, and one of the standbys of '25, Willing to work, capable and energetic, we can always depend on her. She is a fine, true type of girlhood and one of our most conscientious Seniors. She is an athlete, good student, and expert typist. Everyone is her friend and she is a friend to all. Nancy Lee

VVhat would the Senior Class do without Elizabeth? When we see something funny and no one else laughs we can always turn to Elizabeth to help us out. She surely isn't in love with her studies but somehow she always keeps stride with the others. On a hot sum- mer day Elizabeth always looks around for a shady place because one of her horrors is freckles, but it really wouldn't be Elizabeth if a few freckles didn't greet us, and they are really becoming to her. Elizabeth MELBOURNE SUTTON THU VANQUISHED, HE ARGUES STILL Orchestra, '22-'232 Operetta, '23, Melbourne is one of our outstanding students. He shines in all his studies, especially History. His one desire is to become a great orator and politician like Cicero of ancient Rome. He is well informed con- cerning the political conditions now existing in this country, and it is his greatest pleasure to enlighten the students of 11-A with his views. Melbourne GLENN SMITH UBEWARE HOW YOU SAY MORE THAN YOU MEAN! BETTER MEAN MORE THAN YOU SAY. Band, '22-'233 Plnufore, '23: Orchestra, '22-'23-'24-'25: Student Council, '25. Here's to the prettiest boy in the Class of '25. What an honorable place he holds! He is one of our Com- mercial students who does good work. He takes life as it comes, never worrying over anything especially, but he always has the grades. Pretty Boy ELDRIDGE SMITH 'fwE SEE ONCE A WEEK on so. THEREFORE I-us ABILITY WE no NOT KNOW. Pinafore, '23. Eldridge was one of the irregular students in the Senior Class, and because of this, it seemed we must lose him. But some other school in the town to which he moved will be proud to have him in their Senior Class, as much so as we. Eldridge ININETEENJ

Pinafore, '22: Basket-ball, '23-224: Captain Basket-ball, '24: Athletic Association, '22-'23-'24-':23: Dramatic Club, '25: Literary Society, '24: Treasurer Athletic Association, '25: Girl Scout, '22: Marshal '24, This is a girl full to the brim with school spirit! If you want to get up a Junior-Senior banquet and need ideas, this is the girl to come to. With athletics. Gertie's right there. She has played basket-ball three years and has proven to be a good player. She is one of the most dependable girls in our class, and she never shirks her duty. She is the kind of girl we like to call our classmate. Gerty MARGARET LAWRENCE YOU'LL ALWAYS FIND HER TRUE AND JUST. A GIRL WHOM ALL WILL LOVE AND TRUST. Athletic' Association, '23-'Z24-':Z5: Pinafore, 'ZZZQ Literary Society, 243 Glee Club, '24-'25: Dramatic Club, '24-'ZZ5. Margaret is another proof of the fact that the Seniors of '25 are a happy-go-lucky crowd. We al- ways think of Margaret as standing up by her seat and saying, Miss ........ , I simply can't stay in this afternoon. Its simply impossible, and I can't imagine what I'm staying in for. However, she takes her medicine like a man, and we sincerely hope she will have a few afternoons off before June arrives. Margaret EARL EWING MERRITT WOMEN, WOMEN I OH. HOW I ADORE THEM ! I-umrlmll, 'rzz-'23-'24, Earl is an all-round favorite with the ladies. His spare hours are always spent in planning a good time for whichever her he's taking to the next party. Earl has three sterling qualities--grandiloquent lov- ing, a willing spirit, and women. Earl is also a knock- out football player. He is a very good student, but loves to tease the teachers. Doughboy ELIZABETH CLAIRE MCSORLEY SHE ISHEGREASILE5 sn-IE IS SHY, BUT SHE HAS MISCHIEF IN Pinafore, '22: Athletic Association, '22-'23-'24-'25: President Ath- letic Association, 224125: Basket-ball, '22-'23-'24-'25: Literary So- ciety, '23-224: Manager Basket-ball, '24-':25. Elizabeth is counted among the few who uphold athletics in the Senior Class and practically the whole High School. She certainly is the stuff on the bas- ket-ball court and she always plays a snappy game. She is also a real friend in other things, one who can sympathize with others who are having trouble in passing their work, for she has been in that same boat. Anyhow Elizabeth surely is a real girl and a real friend, the kind that are few and far between. Elizabeth CTWENTY-ONE,
