Gallo, who was coming up in the car flate as usualj who that hard-boiled captain was. Jack was in the act of commanding the impossible, l'Brown, wipe that smile off your face. Yes, Jack was captain, and as hard- boiled as they come. He is not only a military genius, but will very likely become a great statesman. He is the star of all the debates held in Senior English. We hope he will suc- ceed in that line and we are sure that he will be encouraged by everyone when his genius is recognized. Esther Shuey- Shuey To love and be loved is the greatest happiness of existc-nc-ef, This is Esther's belief. We Wonder if this is the reason why jack asked her for com- mencement partner. listher is a member of the Greenwood Hill Gossip Club. Shuey is a good essayist, winning the prize for best essay on Enlistment in the Army. Being small, one would expect her to be very quiet, hut have you ever heard her rave?

Virginia Rishel- Ginger XVhere more is meant than meets the ear. Yes, still waters run deep. Those dark, expressive eyes are like deep blue pools. It is with these eyes that she brings all the male members of our class to her feet on bended knees. At least there is one who stayed there long enough to be her conunenceinent partner. ,CHow about it, Luke ?D . Ginger has theatrical talent, as was demonstrated in the number of plays and vaudevilles she took part in during her High School career. She will some day become a-'lmovie star. Harry'Bausum- Tub , O'Ma1ley t'His H10fllGI'lS,Dl'ld6, his father's joyg He is indeed our darling boy. l-larry is one of the heavy-weights of the class.

He does not believe in having a Hsteadyf' having three in the course of two months. Harry will wind up as manager of Bausum's. Hannah Morris For she was just the quiet kind whose nature never varies. Another one of St. Clair's favorite daughters Caine to us last fall. She entered into her work with a zeal that merits following: ln English, when the rest of the class were struggling' with Eurke's oration, Hannah was always ready with an answer and .received the grateful appreciation of the class.
