WALTER COX Walter is always present. He is a good fellow as well as a good student. Among Walter’s most pleasing recre- ations are talking Spanish and motor- ing down Butternut Street. Walter never tried out for the Glee Club, but he is certainly the making of the choir at the Methodist Church. ELSIE HARBER Elsie is a sort of timid girl; there- fore we know little about her. She is ambitious, but says she would like High School better if English, history, mathematics, science, and a few minor subjects were not taught. Elsie as- pires to be a real old maid. EFFIE CREIGHTON So many good things can be said about Effie that it is difficult to single out any one cha crowning glory is and we wonder if that she is always ELIZABETH BEAM Elizabeth is one of the best natured girls in the Senior Class. Nothing, not even a failure in an English quiz, can erase that “beamy” grin of hers. She has had several years in Domestic Science; so we think we know what her plans for the days after high school are. racteristic. Effie’s her beautiful hair, that is the reason with Coombes. WILLIE MAE HOOPER “Bill” certainly takes advantage of the fact that this is a free country. What she will make of herself the Lord only knows, but if she develops her musical talent, she will lay Pad- erewski in the shade. Bill says, “Giggle and the world giggles with you.” Stay in there. Bill! 35

She specializes in Spanish verbs and Woolley’s ‘Hand- book.” There are few girls of Mary’s kind, So full of fun and clever of mind. MILTON WILLIAMS Milton came to us this year from Garland High School. He is quiet and unassuming, and studies hard. The loudest thing about him is his red sweater with the white “G” on it. He will probably be a great engineer for OTTIS MOORE There is not a single sign of yellow in “Red.” On the gridiron he is a mov- ing star and hero. His favorite song is “Drink to Me Only with Thine Eyes,” but as an echo we hear “Ag- gravating Papa.” With a mind just a bit serious, “Red,” old boy, you never weary us. concern. COLA B.
