VIOLA DAVIS-Click! Click! Bang! 'I'here's Viola, pounding away on the typewriter. Having been enrolled in the Commercial Course, she has prepared herself to he a 'fstenogf' Her leisure hours from the ofhce will in all probability be spent on the dance floor or in the swimming pool. There certainly is nothing so refreshing as a hit of variety in one's activities, is there, Viola? FRANK DAY-24-36-45 Action! Day made the tackle!l' VVhat an asset Apie has been to our class! Captain of the football team, a member of the A Cappella Choir, a former wrestler, a good dancer fyes, he knows his stepsj, and class vice-president during his junior year- all these, in addition to personality plus, a big smile and Hello for everyone, have made him the most popular fellow in school and an All-Around American boy. VIRGINIA DEEB- Take a letter, please! Ah! These words will be sweet music to Virginia's ears. i'Lucky is the word for the employer who has this striking beauty working in his orhce. Beautiful, black hair, twinkling, black eyes, and a big smile is enough to set any heart palpitating. And can she dance? A not uncommon sight is Virginia swinging and swaying in the girls' gym at noon. NVhen it comes to members of the opposite sex-well, what do you think? FLORENCE DENGLER-Fair as the lily, loyal, obedient, sweet, sentimental, intelligent, and energetic is 'iFlossie. Be it basketball, volley ball, baseball, or what have you, 'fFloss is a lover of them all. However, swimming and dancing are tops A wecome guest anywhere is this fair young maiden with the disposition all girls desire. Our official gloom Chaser has brightened up many a dull day. ALFRED DERAMO-Quiet, backward, conscientious, and athletic-these characterize 'iFreddie. This young man of few words possesses a dry sense of humor. He has proved himself an enjoyable companion and classmate. His principal extra-curricular interest is in the activities of the Sketch Club. lie should be well qualified to grapple with life's problems, for he's also a grunt-and-groan squad member. CHRISTIE DEVER-How can anyone be blue when Christie, bubbling over with wit and mirth, is around? All types of sports, reading, and dancing occupy most of her time. Even though she wasn't active in the various clubs, she was a member of the A Cappella Choir. Many a gloomy day was made cheerful by this happy-go-lucky Miss, who hails from Greenwood Hill. FRANCIS DICELLO-VVhat is more romantic than a moonlight night and an accordion solo? Although he himself is not very eloquent in class, he certainly can make his accordion Htalkf' Perhaps a famous musician is in the mak- RICIIARD DIETRICH-All hands on deck for Dick Dietrich of the Navy! VVhat is more picturesque than mid- shipmen on parade! Perhaps Dick's ability to play the bugle will come in mighty handy when reverie or taps are to be sounded. Dick has an unusual but interesting hobby- that of raising pigeons. llow about giving the Navy a helping hand? ROBERT DIETRICH-Dietrich is a hefty enrolee in the Industrial Curriculum, his major interest centering in electricity and its elusiveness. Press a button, you or me, and then this great 'lectricity will do the rest while we with zest sit 'round and try to look our l1est - well, for such perfection is Dietrich striving. ALEX DIETZ-No group would be complete without a blond male. Our class is not deficient in that respect, for Alex answers to that description. Rather than be a jack-of-all-trades, he did not participate in any activities. Per- haps he wasn't quite so active as he might have been in class work, either. But then, many who were not particularly fond of school work turned out to be famous. CLAIRE DOLAN-Ah! A modern jitterbug! Anyone who attended our formal dances was sure to see Claire burn- ing up the floor. Dancing and swimming seem to be her favorite forms of recreation and exercise. She is just as graceful in the water as she is on the dance floor. She must have music in her soul, too, for her piano-pllaying ability, we are told, is of merit. - JOHN DONOVAN-VVl1iz!! There goes Donovan flying by. Although he wasn't near the top in classwork, he was among those present when it came to track and basketball. lt looks as though the words Donovan and sports are synonymous, for another Donovan-Arthur-is the renowned boxing referee. Donovan without a grin is like a school without a teacher. SALVATRICE DRAGNA- Sally is sweet, alluring, lovely, likeable, and demure. In addition, a lover of music is our dainty little Miss. Not only is she an accomplished pianist, but she can also sing like a lark. And - her danc- ing is divine! A big smile and a cheery Good morning from Sally are sure to start the day right. STEVE DROPCHICK-Breakfast in New York, lunch in Paris, and dinner in Yokohama-that's the life UFoozy would like. CVVho wouldn't?l VVill it be a U. S. Transport or a China Clipper that this ambitious young man will pilot? Like Henry Busse, he's an accomplished trumpeter and was a most worthy addition to our band. And does the fact that he hails from St. Clair account for his being an excellent sprinter? Page 21 s
