.. -3: 'Q .: gt gg C H XXVI OPTIMIST HAZEL BELLE HUMMER. Academic Course. Third Honor, 'Choral Club 3 years, Wreck of the Hesperus, Orchestra '24-'25, Science Club '25-'26. Just to be different we won't say a thing about Reid, because we realize it must get quite boring. But Hazel can do other than Reid, she's a shark at Vergil, to say nothing of playing the piano. LOLA MAE HARRISON. Commercial Course, Stenography Club, Trotty Veck, 'Commercial Club. Lola can be seen anytime hurrying through the halls for Lola tends strictly to business and is always in a hurry. Gene erally people always in a rush have no time to do things for others but not so with Lola.. She always has time to help some one else along. EDWARD H ELFRICH. General Course, History Honor, Football 3 years, Basketball Manager '25-'26, Class Basketball 4 years, Murphologist Basket- ball Team '24-'25, Optimist Staff '23-'24, President Murphologist Club '24-'25, Fire Team 2 years. Ed with his shining black hair and win- ning smile is the idol of all the girls, but this has not kept him from being an athlete and student. In football Ed was one of our best ends. Although he only came to school in the mornings during his Senior year Ed easily captured the History honor. MARTHA JILLSON. Academic Course, Basketball '23-'24-'25-'26, Captain of Basketball Team '25, Science Club '26, Glee 'Club '23-'24-'25, 'Choral Club '25-'26, Trotty Veck '24-'25-'26, Class Cheer- leader '24, French Club '25-'26, For four years Mart has been on the basketball squad, and if she hadn't been there it couldn't have won the games it did, And on all the trips her golden hair and wonderful guarding won her more than one date. nv-27 wl- ..,., '-Z1i,l,ff.n'F'1'f'1 V , lm?

XXVIOPTIMISTQW-' ' ' ' ' RUTH GILSON. Commercial Course, Stenography Club, Commercial Club, Trotty Veck Club. Ruth has a pair of dimples any one can well envy. To set off this pair of dimples she has one deeply imprinted in her chin. fBut whv tell you all this when her pic ture is right in front of you.l Ruth is a jolly sort of person and is always smiling und not because she wants to show her dimples either, for she couldn't hide them il she wished. ' BERNICE Gn.soN. Academic Course, Science Club, Choral Club. Four years ago a rosy cheeked chubby faced lassie blossomed in from the neigh- boring village Hydetown. NVe never see Bernice when she's quiet but see Miss Stewart and see if she has developed the ability to talk while eating or if she's too taken up with her lunch. We think the latter. JOH N LEROY HANCOX. Academic Course, Mathematics Honor Class Baseball Team 2 years. School Base- ball Team l year, Science Club, Fire Team, Debating Team, Glee Club '24, Leroy, officially known as Sparky by all. is perhaps the best rooter for T. H. S. that we have. He has never been known to miss a home game regardless of time, place. or kind. His prowess as a student is well known and respected throughout school although he would rather sock the horsehide over the fence than get a whole report card full of A's. GLADYS VELMA HUMMER. Academic Course, Choral Club '23-'25, The Wreck of the Hesperus, Trotty Veck '23-'24, Science Club '25-'26. ls Gladys a good sport? Well, rather, she's one of the most willing class-mates we have, and when one has won her choice smile Cas some's privileged few have- they feel more than honored. iltlluw M
