.. ., .N ' 5 1 XXVI OPTIMIST ANNA BEATRICE MORRIS. Commercial Course, Stenography Club, Commercial Club, Trotty Veck Club, Choral Club. An11a is one of those people who can't be kept down, against the doctors orders she came back to school and has stayed and will graduate with us. We call this grit. Any one who has such pertinacity will surely be a success in the world. RAYMOND MCELHANEY. Commercial Course, Commercial Club, Stenography Club, Choral Club. The girls say Ray is a quiet chap, but they don't know him. Just ask Mr. Bitters the way Ray runs Riverside, and you'll find he is far from being bashful and quiet. GEORGE O'HARE. Commercial Course, Commercial Club, Stenography Club. Choral Club 2 years, Fire Team 1 year, Class Basketball 2 years, Manager Class Basketball Team '25-'26 Gyp- ys Rover. Although George is11't very large he sure did his bit in making the class of '26 what it is. The capable way he managed the Senior basketball team proves this state- ment. Mr. Murphy reports George is quite a wrestler too. Can you throw any light on that statement, George? MABEL MARIE PROPHETER. Commercial Course, Commercial Club. Mabel is another one of the sharks of the Commercial Department. As a typist, well, it's hard to imagine a speedier one. In many a pinch she has helped with Optimist work so that we have her to thank for more than one helping hand. Besides be- ing a typist, she's a cheerful helper in every- thing. 7 7T ' ' E531 vu

Murphologist Club. King is the famous dancer of T. H. S. Can she Charleston? Just ask her to demon- strate once and you won't have to ask a second time. 'She's as graceful as the nymphs you read about, and we wouldn't be at all surprised to hear of her taking Pavlowa's place at any minute. HAZEL LOUISE MCCURDY. Academic Course, Murphologist Club. Hazel came to us from the Hydetown High School at the beginning of our Senior year, and we wish she'd have come sooner. She's won our hearts already by her cheer- ful disposition. IRENE McCURDY. . Commercial Course. Commercial Honor, Orchestra '25-'26, Trotty Veck Club '25-'26, Stenography Club '25, Commercial Club '26, Irene carried off the Commercial Honor and there's not one but who thinks she de- served it.

CLEO BETTY PROPER. Academic - -Commercial Course, Steno- granhy Club, Commercial Club, Science Clxb. Cleo. in the years she has been with us has established a place in the hearts of the Seniors because of her attractive shy man- ner. Don't misunderstand us, we admire a person who has so refined a manner and only regret that we have had her as a. class mate for just two years. CLIFFORD PATTERSON. Academic Course, Science Club. What more need one say about Clifford than that he triumphed over our famous lawyer Warren T. Dickinson. By his great fluency he secured the divorce of Mrs. Louis Caldwell formerly Miss Lufcile Fogelquist. His good common sense expoundings won over the jury so completely that Mrs. Cald- well was given custody of Louis Jr. and 510.000 alilnony.
