The Thronateeska i MALLORY LIPP1TT. “Bookie. “Not to know me argues yourself unknown.” Mallory is a happy, carefree la l, fully six feet, two and then some! He is a great athlete, but was “disabled in action last year. He still boasts, however, that he can lick all three of his big brothers. Bookie likes everybody and everybody likes him. We predict for him fame as a cartoonist, for often in class he has given proof of his skill. Basketball 1919. Baseball 1917, 1918, 1919, 1920. President Athletic Association. Artist Annual Staff. MARY LOUISE BROWN “Brownie. “And lightly w: s her slender nose. Tip-tilted like the petals of a flower. When the 1920 census was taken, Mary Louise added one to the population of the famous little town of Putney. She is a strong advocate of the maxim. Better late than never, for she never fails to arrive at school between 10 A. M. and two P. M. Her chief occupation is trying to get thin. What, though, she is rather careless about mere lessons? She makes up for it in rare good-fellowship. Sponsor Boys’ Basketball Team. Nonsense Editor Annual Staff. Pcige Fifteen

The Thronateeska NELLE WALDEN. “Excelsior.” “Knowledge is the great sun in the firmament.” Nelle first appeared in the A. H. S. firmament in the Sophomore year. Since then she has shone as a brilliant meteor in every field of endeavor. She out Latins the ancient Homans, translating Old Virgil with an ease and accuracy that holds us spell bound in admiration. While in English. History and French, she still continues to shine. MARVIN PHYSE. “Tony.” “Wisdom’s self oft seeks to sweet retired solitude. Where with her best nurse. Contemplation. She plumes her feathers ami lets grow her wings.” The class dreamer! Disturb him not! Marvin sits among his fellows wrapped in a maze of thought, and whether building “Castles in Spain” or merely bridging over the chasm between 8:30 and 2, he remains immune from any distraction from his own deep reflections. Yet he manages in some mysterious way not only to absorb the printed pages but to cage every stray bit of information let loose by the teachers. And in athletics he’s alive! Basketball 1920.
