Hoois Hoo? v vvvvvvvvv vvwvvvrwvvvvv-vvrvvvvvvv'C'C' ' -' Marguerite Cleary leaves her uncontrollable mirth to the amazement of the un- derclassrnen. Ruth Shoemaker leaves her spelling ability to anyone who values it enough to want it. Betty Jones bequeathes her inferiority complex to the laboratory for experimen- tal purposes. We are all anxious to know just what elements it takes to make up such an extarordinary self-hate. Bessie Ogden leaves her unprofessed love for Orville Jones, to Laura Tepolt. Who knows what may become of this? They are both delightfully bashful kids- and then two minuses make a plus-you know! Fannie McCartney leaves for Utica to take up nursing with the hopes that Bill will havevgood care during her absence. We refer him to Agnes An-Tier. Z? Guy Sweet leaves his oratorical eloquence to Rodney Pierson. Ahl Rodney- Now you're all set-That Sweet man's line sure gets 'em. i The remaining good qualities of this Class of '32 may be had by anyone apply- ing in the usual LA- manner, i. e., fill out a pink, a blue, and a yellow slip, have photo- graphs and Hngerprints taken, and present signatures of at least fifteen teachers. Having heaved our final sigh a goodly distance, we now sign this, our last will and testament, before our old friend, Rigor Mortis, comes in. fSignedj Guy Sweet Robert Gallagher.

Class Will We, the Class of '32, being sober, and of sound mind and of doubtful memory, do hereby make this, our last will and testament. As, we are soon to fall victims of the depression, we wish to hand on to those who follow us, our worldly goods. Our first desire is a decent interment, to be preceded by the form and ,ritual of a good old-fashioned Irish Wake. Secondly, we wish to offer the entire faculty congratulations and our best wishes for a speedy recovery from the task of getting a diploma into our hands, to say nothing of the trouble it must have been te amuse us these many years. To those who will now be regarded as Seniors, we leave our home-room, with the advice that, if you donit get more out of it than we did, it wonit be much. Robert Dutton leaves to Robert l'Confusion Fuess his clhcient and quiet Way of doing things. Robert '4Goofi, Gallagher relinquishes his exceptional chemical abilities to that up and coming lad, Lloyd Smith. James Hljercyw Ruane leaves his unfailing promptness to one who is in great need of it, Joyce Randall. Anna Ready has become a martyr by offering her quiet manner to Winifred 'GPrudence,, Lloyd. Fred Byrnes, old man generosity himself, leaves his exceptional basketball abilities to graceful Raymond Dunn. Josephine De Pollina leaves her many inane questions to the mercy of the lirst graders. Regina Barrett, the only dark sheep in this famed Class of '32, leaves her wild ways to one who can ill afford to assume them, Irene Berry. Russell Dornburgh, that sophisticated young man who tramps the halls in a swallow-tail and silk topper, leaves his sophisticated manner to Frank Gibbons. Frank, we 'advise you to give it a try on Thelma. John Fusek, our own steadfast and demuref, leaves his sincere, pleasing man- ner to Don Fuess, who will, by adopting it, meet with great success and popularity. Priscillla Hilsinger T135 decided that upon graduating she and Pauline Randall will have a little uget together in which they will share proportions and emerge ngrown up. Grace Scott leaves to Ruth Beck her high school romances, of which there seem many. Tessie Westmoreland leaves her seducive charmsf?l to Maxine Rice with hope that there will be mutual benefit If you think thereis another like our Tessie, just ask the boys on the hill. Mary Nolan leaves her dignity in hope that Betty Lane will appropriate some of it. Letis all hope for Betty. Stuart Fuess leaves his clandestine love affairs to darken the annals of Water- ville High. Mary Fuess leaves her gum to Miss Clark for art purposes. Lowell Peckham leaves his cosmopolitan air to Elmer Burkett-and then, thereis that saying of '4Out of the frying pan into the firef, Wallis Wetlaufer leaves his soccer misfortune to Carl Cook. . Mary Brown leaves school with high hopes of an early and prosperous mar- riage. Don't rush Mary, all men are created equal. Peg Terry leaves young Ed Kane to Geraldine Wright. The good that men do lives after them. AAAg4.:AA AAA44Ax444AAA AAA4.4.zAAA AA
