Senior Play, '23, If you are looking for an attractive girl a.nd one that will be loyal to your school, if you want some- one that can be a true friend in trouble as well as in fun, one that's always ready for a good time, yet can be serious, if there is need to be, one that is a perfect young lady yet not an ol' maid in her ways, a. girl that has a smile for everyone old and young alike, then just go to Frances Perry, for she's the girl with all these sterling qualities, and is loved by all, especially one.

Like Postum there's a reason. To everyone she's just our Emily. Emily has been the shining star in our dramatic firmament throughout her high school career. She holds her audience in the hollow of her hand. Her ability to ma.ke them weep or send them into peals of laughter has endeared her to all. The success of THE CUB is largely due to the persistent efforts of our Editor- in-chief. Her versatility has been a source of con- stant wonder to those who know her. Emily URAL M. RHODES HWHENEVER IT COMES TO PLAYING, YOU'LL FIND HIM READY FOR FUN, BUT-ALSO READY WHEN THEFtE'S WORK TO BE DONE. Football. '22-'23-'24-'25g Basket-ball.

He is always included in all the sports for the crowd would not be complete without him. His heart is given, but just the same the girls go for him, as they like to be seen with a boy that is jolly, a. good-looking star in athletics, and popular. 6AMary97 DOROTHY RITCHY THE GLADNESS OF HER GLADNESS, AND THE SADNESS OF HER SADNESS, ARE NOTHING COMPARED TO THE BADNESS OF HER BADNESS V WHEN SHE'S BAD. President of lil-A, 'Lili Secretary of Class, '25: Athletic Association, '22-'EIS-'2-l-'23: Basket-ball Team, '22-'23-'24-'Zig Sponsor of Basket- ball, '23Z Assistant Cheer Leader of Football, '2-1: Dramatic Society, 'LZSC Literary Society, '2-l: Pinafore, '23, If you are looking for an all-round girl, here she is. Dorothy is a true friend, a real pal, and a star athlete. She is one of the most popular girls of our class. and, in fact, of the whole high school-quite as much so among the boys as among the girls. Socially, she is charmingg intellectually, she is sound, physically, she is all right, morally-well, she is not exactly perfect, but she'1l pass with a high grade. We prophesy for her a bright and happy future. ilDOt!! LTWENTY-SEVENJ

Pinafore, '22fS: Student Council, '23-'24. Jack comes in from Rhems every morning and brings a truck-load with him. He always has a smile for us. Each month his report is full of two's and many of us look at him enviously, for we don't see how he does it, for if ever any fun is planned Jack is always the first to join in. Jack WILLIAM SMITH NOT T00 SERIOUS, NOT T00 GAY, BUT A RARE GOOD FELLOW WHEN IT COMES T0 PLAY. Treasurer S-B, '20-'2l: Pinafore, ,221 Literary Society, '23-2-1: Or- chestra, '22-'23-'24-'25. Bill is certainly the t'clown of ll-B. He can even bring a smile to Miss Blackwelder's face, when things go wrong in Geometry class and she finds it necessary to frown. He also takes charge of the erasers and chalk and is one of the gallant leaders of those much- talked-of chalk fights. But we can't say that Bill is never serious because once in a while we see him striving hard to make 11-B get one on room inspec- tion, especially after Miss Cline has said a few words. Bill DIXIE MARGARET TAYLOR SHE HATH A HEART T0 CONCEIVE, AN UNDERSTANDING T0 TONGUE T0 PERSUADE, AND HANDS T0 Pinafore, '23: Athletic Association, '22-'23324-'25: Basket-ball Team '22-'23-'24-'25: Captain, '25: Critic Adelphian Literary Society, '24: President Athenian Literary Society. '25: Triangular Debate, '24-'25: Assistant Editor of THE BRUIN, ':Z5: Assistant Editor of THE CUB, '23: Student Council, '24-225: President of Student Council, 24: Music Medal, '23-'2-I: Debating Medal, '25. Dixie is one of the stars that is forever shining in old N. B. H. S. If it were not for Dixie we just could- n't get along. She can't be beat in her studies, hardly ever makes below a one on any of them. Dixie was voted the most capable girl in the Senior Class and everyone knows that she well deserves the honor. Besides being captain of the girls' basket-ball squad, this year, she is on the student council, the debating team and almost a hundred committees. Dixie is never in one place very long, but she tries her best to be everywhere at once. Dixie JAMES VINSON TRUE T0 HIMSELF, TRUE T0 HIS FRIENDS, TRUE T0 HIS DUTY ALWAYS. Pinafore, '23. James has always had a quiet manner in class. This has not hindered but helped him in solving dif- ficult problems in his commercial class, when others had given up all hope. His loyalty and willingness was greatly admired by his fellow pupils. He is ever faithful. Ja.1nes may be quiet but his marks prove that he gets there just the same. Jamesi'

FLORIE EDWARD GIBBS A PRETTY GIRL, A WITTY GIRL. A GIRL S0 FULL OF FUN: A BRAINY GIRL, A CAREFUL GIRL, A THOUSAND GIRLS IN ONE. Athletic Association, '22: Operetta, 23: Girls Chorus, '23: Literary Society, '24: Dramatic Society, '25g Chief Manager THE BRUIN, '25: Vice-President Class, '25: Senior Play, '25. Here's a lady in the full sense of the word. Every- body knows Florie, for she is always ready with a smile, which makes her very popular with all who know her. As business manager of THE BRUIN, she has shown exceptional ability and has freely used her time in its behalf. She also expressed herself so well in the Senior play that we often wonder why her horror is reading in English class. But funny things do happen! 'tFlorie VIRGINIA GWALTNEY I WANT A HERO Literary Society, '24: Operetta, '23. When you look for Virginia you have to look pretty low if you want to see her because she's too short enough at both ends to be seen. But her size has nothing to do with the good sport she is and she loves fun just like the rest of us. She doesn't get ones on her lessons every month, but who does? She hasn't chosen her career yet but we know whatever she un- dertakes, she will make a success of it. Virginia ETTA GASKINS JOLLY, HAPPY, ENTHUSIASTIC, WITH A VAST STORE OF IN- FORMATION UPON ANY OONOEIVABLE SUBJECT. Athletic Association, '22-'23-'24-'25: Basket-ball, '22-'23-'24-'25: Cap- tain, '23: Pinafore, '23: High School Review, '23: Literary Society, '24: Dramatic Club, '25g Art Editor, '25: State Typewriting Con- test, '25. Wanted to know! If there's anything to be done that Etta can't do? One minute leading a basket-ball game to victory, the next entertaining a gay party by her ever-ready flow of language and witticisms, and 'again taking the place of the teacher in her absence, or leading her classes in literary work. Also, she's quite the thing when it comes to making things artis- tic. In fact she is a bundle of talent, ability and orig- inality which rank her among the first of the Best all-round. KKEtta!! MARGARET HENDERSON -'A SMILE Fon ALL, A GREETING GLAD, A LovABI.E, JOLLY wAY SHE HAD. Vice-President Class, '24s Literary Society, '24: Dramatic Club, '25: Assistant Manager THE BRUIN, Pinafore, High School Minstrel, The Elopement of Ellen, What Happened to Jones, Chairman Entertainment Committee, '25: Marshal, '24: Athletic Stand, '25. Margaret is the girl who sells candy at recess for the Athletic Association. She's a regular girl, too, and ready for fun at any and all times. We often wonder how she ever manages to keep her social ac- tivities, admirers and studies going so smoothly at the same time. She does it, though, and also finds time to be in our plays. Margaret
