MYRTLE ANDERSON Anderson No. 475,473I She won't be the first Anderson to be somebody's stenog, and she won't be the first one to dislike homework, but she will be the first chess and checker queen named Anderson, if her interest continues in this line. Mixed Chorus, Leaders Club, Chess and Checker Club, G. A. A., Stein-Sten Club. VERNON ANDERSON Tall, blonde, and extremely silent.

Police, Vice-President of the Senior Class, Intramural Baseball, Basketball. ALICE ANDREASEN A high-pitched laugh penetrates the classroom and only one person could be responsible-Alice. No one else has ever measured up to her in possessing so unique a laugh, or such twinkling fingers at the piano. Some day she hopes these fingers will play in accompaniment to the great Rubinoff. Leaders Club, Stein-Sten Club, Office Clerk, G. A. A. HOLLIS ANDREWS He looks important, seems important, but he doesn't feel important because he wants to be someone of impor- tance.

Dramatic Club, G. A. A. MARGARET BALK Strike three-you're out1 But not Margaret. lt's a home run every time. Baseball is Margaret's middle name. Of course she hasn't let down the other sports: bowling, horse- back-riding, ping pong, tennis, and swimming. All this exercise will certainly make her capable of treating the worst when she becomes a nurse.

The Senior Class ot Ianuary, 1936 When the members of the class ot lanu- ary, 1936, elected officers in April, 1935, they began to show their good sense, capability, and enthusiasm for doing things. Under the leadership of the Senior Class, the clubs and athletic teams have taken many strides toward their single goal, Serv- ice for Steinmetzf' Because they have let no obstacles stop them in their determination to have a prom, their plans have been com- pleted to that end and at this date, it prom- ises success. Other social functions-such as the dance given for the lune '35 Class and the 4A Christmas dance this year have meant enjoyable hours for the Seniors. All in all, the Senior Class has done its very best to be the guiding star tor the under- classmen, and although it remains to be seen whether they were or not, certainly no class that follows will ever try harder to tit the pattern set by the former classes. Now the Senior Class ot lanuary, 1936, leaves Steinmetz, but will not pass into oblivion, because the year and a half spent at Stein- metz has proven that every member has the necessary requirements to achieve a favorable termination of anything attempted., President Victor Porth Vice-President Vernon Anderson Secretary Edna Fenton Treasurer lean laeger COMMITTEES PIN AND RING FINANCE Alex Lustiq Mr Schumer joseph Munson, Beatrice Mealins Sponsor Chairman PROM lean laeger Elwood Daly SOCIAL MISZOZZEEU' Dorothy Hofmann Evelyn Owen, larnes Dickstein, Ioseph Koo?

LAWRENCE BARKMAN Lawrence is an artist at heart and has intentions of pur- suing this ambition at the University of Illinois. Athletics are his secondary pastimes, particularly intramural base- ball, basketball, and volleyball. To be perfectly happy, Lawrence would like to be able to dance like Herbert Friemuth. PAULINE BARR Of small stature, with large blue eyes and natural curls, Pauline tries to convince us that her hobby is domestic arts. But We suspect that her liking for our school dances even surpasses her culinary capers. She has only one ambition-that of having a man like Mr. Herrick for her boss fbusiness or domestic?l. G. A. A., Hall Guard. VERNA BARTEL Finding Mr. Bjornson's history tests a bit trying, Verna takes respite in lunch periods, gym, and division. She also likes skating, hiking, and swimming. Being academically minded, Verna hopes to graduate with good standing, and then attend Wright Iunior College. G. A. A., Stein-Sten Club, Hall Guard. EVELYN BAUERLE Up leaps the horse. Dovm slides Evelyn, hanging pre- cariously on the horse's neck. Whoa, Pickles, whoa! A shriek completes the picture. Although Evelyn solemnly vows never the ride him again, each Tuesday p. m. finds her in jodhpurs ready for another excursion on Pickles.

Senior Life Guard,gTreasurer of G. A. A., Prom Commit- tee, Hall Guard. P FRED BENSEN Speaking in New Deal terms, Fred is interested in the three B's-baseball, bowling, and basketball. However, in regard to the three R's, his enthusiasm is somewhat less. Instead of applying himself to homework evenings, as every good boy should, Fred dials Bing Crosby and imi- tates his crooning. MARIAN BERKOWITZ Marian does good for good's sake and seeks neither praise nor reward. Best wishes to you. RAE BERRY Although the connection is vague, Rae likes to break test tubes in chemistry, would like to pass one of Mr. Bjornson's history tests, and Wants to study civil engineer- ing.
