AGS JOHN FAGAN “Beg” Classical Rutgers Orchestra 1, 2; Football Manager 1’; League Football 2, 3; Track Manager 3, 4; Home Room Chairman 1; League Baseball 1, 2; Student Patrol 4. “Believe one who speaks from experience.” There certainly is a difference between the viperish Fagan of comic-strip fame and our Feg. Rather than associate the former's personality with him, we shall remember him for his humour and that “feggish” drawl. JEANNE FARLAND Commercial Katherine Gibbs Home Room Chairman 2; Glee Club 2; Dramatic Club 3, 4; Junior Play 3; Senior Play 4; Hi-Tri 4; Patrol 4; Entree , 4; Field Day 1. “An honest heart possesses a Kingdom.” Jeanne has made us all like her because of her sense of humor and her kindness. How we ad- mired her acting in the junior a nd senior plays! LOUIS FERRARIE Lous General A Undecided Orchestra 1, 2; Basketball 1. “Mind when thou canst, be better at thy leisure.” Louis is another member of our class who has contributed his talent to make our orchestra what it 1s. Good work, Louis. MATTIE FISHER Classical New York University Glee Club 3. “A quiet lass, there are but few who know the treasures hid in you.” Mattie is one of our good-natured girls. When she is inspired, how she can sing! JOHN FLYNN “Flynnie” “Flynnigan” Scientific Engineering, Cornell Basketball Manager 1, 2, 3; Prize Physiography 1; Electrical Board 3, 4; Patrol 4; Basketball Manager 4. “Studious of case and fond of humble things.” “Flynnie” has certainly grown during his four years here—both mentally and physically—, and we expect him to grow still further into a suc- cessful engineer.

IRENE EGAN Commercial Business “A pleasing countenance is a silent recommendation.” Irene’s lovely hair has been the envy of many a high school lass. What boss could refuse such a fine girl? ERNA C,. EHRNSTROM General Undecided Track 1; Tennis 1; Archery 4. “T live on the sunny side of the street.” Even if it were the night before exams, Erna would rather go out on a spree than study. Care- free, vivacious, and darn cute. MILDRED ELIA “Peanut” Commercial New York University Basketball 2, 4; Tennis 1; Hi Tri 4. “Let us smile qlong together Be the weather what it may.” Always ready to see the funny side of every- thing, Mildred is a very pleasant person to know. Even though she is tiny, our regard for her is great. SALVATORE ESALDO Sal Gupids Classical Undecided “Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.” This good-natured chap stands out with his enthusiasm for F. D. R. and cross-word puzzles. None of us ever regretted knowing “Sal.” JANICE EVERILL Sane Classical Vassar Hi Tri 2, 3, 4; Captain Senior Tennis Team 4; Tennis 2, 4; Costume Manager of Senior Play 4; Glee Club 3; Archery 3; Social Service Club 4; Junior Play Dancing 3; Entree 2, 4; Dramatic Society 1; Basketball 2. “A mother’s pride, a father’s joy.” Here’s the girl who can swing a tennis racquet with the grace and ease of Helen Jacobs. Some- day we expect Janice to come out with flying colors in future tennis events. [27]

CHARLES FREEBURN “Charlie” Classical Columbia Vice-president of Freshman Class 1; Manager of Junior Play 3; Entree 3, 4; Debating 3. “So I told them in rhymes for of rhymes I had a store.” Truly blessed by the Olympian gods with the gift of words, Charlie has shown that a persuas- ive tongue may command what it wants. His future venture will doubtless be as successful as his four years here. SAMUEL FULLER “Sam. General A Vocational Patrol 4. “The noonday quiet holds the hill.” A tall lad who has very little to say but a lot to think. We'd like to know “Sam,” what do you think? And his basketball is, well, just grand. SUZANN BOICE FURMAN Suen General C Westminister Choir School Glee Club 2, 3, 4; Archery 3. “Music with her silver sound—” The Glee Club would be incomplete without Sue's golden voice. How Mr. Savage will miss her next year! We predict for her a brilliant future in that most majestic of arts—music.
