XV'-You -M.--ff X J b f N R O Q LLB g-,ZS 'I I I X ' ' ' Fd - -. Her favorite study is U. S. History, and her chief indoor sports are writing sober letters and blushing. Frank Walker-Frank is a tried and true Ashlander and extends a great deal of his energy in the orchestra and during assembly periods, especially the seventh. During this period he enjoys a page or two of Snappy Storiesl' Cliiteraturej, and a slight sleep, awaken- ing refreshed, to orate in Eng. 8. In spite of deportment grades getting lower and spring excitement higher, Frank remains cool and calm and flashes his dimple when he smiles. Florence Van Dyke- Floss has one burning desire, that is, -to make sixty words in typing and to write shorthand well enough to transcribe it. She is fond of nature, and preferring Hills, and intends to live in Klamath Falls when she has finished her career as nurse. Floss has a weakness for lifesavers and shapely eyebrows, the former she eats, the latter she plucks. With her co-partner she daily graces the front steps and holds laughing sway. Marjorie Adamson-One of our talented young ladies is Marjorie A. She is very fond of jewelry stores, including surrounding scenery, and is a special passenger on morning and evening jitneys. Marjorie majors in deportment for she's learning to be good, as next year she is going to Corvallis and alas! for the susceptiible Freshmen who will wilt before her shy smile and tender voice as have several of our own city. Louise Ridley-Behind deceptive horn-rims hide Louise 's twink- ling orbs. but Louise herself can it remain concealed in History or English for she is usually among the few who have the desired infor- mation teachers painfully extract. One of her wildest dreams is to tinkle a Remington Qspeaking of typewritersj over in Hawaii, and she daily turns on the Victrola and types to the tune of Hula Honey , thereby hoping to fit herself to the position. So remember to stop off at Honolulu for Louise. Kee Buchanan-Custodian of the royal funds is Kee, and she spends many a wakeful night learning safe combinations and planning ways and means of protecting the class wealth. One of her chief worries is to keep a protecting eye on her straying brother and to keep hairpins in her hair, for the former has a tendency to be hostile towards Medford, and the latter-well they're just hairpins. With her colleagues she is designing a modern Bachelor Girls' Home and their war cry is: Down with the masculines! Etha Abbott-Whiz-past goes Etha, bound for a council meeting of the wise, a consultation over the Annual or ready to make a dash for the tennis court. Etha's worst afflictions are a high forehead, a sense of humor, a ready wit and a distaste for all things pertaining to the inferior sex. Etha has always been one to put on committees and her quick decisions and diplomacy have saved many a day. She completes the trio of Revolutionists, which are a chapter of the Mystic Order of Bolsheviks. Etha likes to hike and is another coaxer of harmony. Inez Reeder-t'Sweet Pickle -Here comes Inez alias Sy plus jazz, plans and hair nets, minus sleep, lesson preparation and deport- ment. For excitement Inez turns back the clock when she comes in early, keeps her pupils in after school and manages to appear in the office at regular intervals.

lx A 'ROQUE in the army, Gus learned to say Oni, Oui, so is majoring in foreign language. CTU He is a charter member of the PSLP Club and spends his leisure hours thinking of some new excuse to stay out of school. In rooters' section at the basketlball games, it's Gus's timid voice that helps drown out Medford 's Fight, Fight, and his capers entertain us during a teacherless assembly. Ross Small- Zippo'l or Smalley possesses a Buick Six and a reputation for speeding. He is another business man and painfully tries to lead a rebellious Senior class along the path of duty. His hobbies are football. Toko. late hours, squeaky shoes and mathematic teachers. Favorite pastimes: poking pins down D. Tinker's back in assembly and picking hairpins out of the back seat of the afore- mentioned Buick. Lloyd Shriner-Lloyd has been with the class of '21 during its Junior and Senior years and has helped bring up the class scholarship in all re.spects. He helped the second team win its place in basketball and struggled with the orchestra in grinding forth its ear-splitting tunes. Guess his nationality? Irish, of course. Found that out last St. Patrick 's day. Mae Smith-May is blonde and freckled, .shj and giggles madly every time any wit of our class offers a new pun. She industriously pounds an Underwood ninety minutes per and bookkeeps another ninety. May must have seven-league boots or else fern seeds in her shoes for she can walk faster than any other A H S'er, and comes to school every morning miles an hour. Alice Slingerland-Alice is the possessor of seventeen and three- fourths credits, so that speaks for her scholarship-yet she finds time to play tennis and take hikes, so she must be just qnatcherally lbritef, Alice has all the desired qualities of a vamp, a delirious smile and a dimple, but she wisely keeps them incognito. She is fitting herself for the position of chief saleslady for Etha Abbott 's famous patented crochetedynotebook. Bernice Yeo-Bernice excels on chords and dischords and is thc coming Beethoven of our class. One time a phrenologist told Bernice she had ambition and brains and since then the midnight oil burns while she practices on soap-box speeches in view of coming triumphs. With Bernice at the piano many a lusty song has been sung in the gym to help our team gain a victory. Bernice left us during our Junior year to .study in Cal., but decided Oregon was better, so returned to graduate. Sadie Payne-Sadie possesses a complexion, a temper, a faculty for writing teachers' reports, and a cruel heart. CThe last is more technical than suspectedb. Sadie came from Klamath county to finish her inbibment of knowledge and in addition to a teachers' training course is becoming very proficient in the art of sweeping corners and dusting piano legs at the practice house. She wavers between the career of an instructress of young America and a housemaid, but inclinations point towards the latter as she prefers a Rolls Royce to a Ford. Venetta Burns-No relation to Robert the Poet. but she is called Bobby . It may be the name that inclines towards poetic reverie. or spring, but whatever it is, it makes Bobby daydream a lot. Of course, we heard that in the spring Venetta would burn no longer but Ar-, -.,,,,,-- ...M--..-.,.,-..,.,- 26 .-.-.---n--,,.,,.. M.- ..---,,--

'R OG UB lot of pep to put something through, Inez is called for and a real time is sure to follow. She caroled in the Glee Club and Sarah Bernharted in Dramatics. Her main ambition is to become an aviatrix and gambol among the stars. Hazel Green-A green name, a pair of specs . a mild disposition and a school mam edcljication-Whmu? Hazel, of course. 'tSpoofer of Gums and HEvader of Buicksf' Technique, that last verr tech- nical. However, Hazel ls sunny smile and H0h Lollypoplw are always welcome and have won their way to the hearts of most A. II. S'ers .Masculine includedl. She has been with the class for the past four years and has always held an influential position. In Freshmen days she was the most patriotic wearer of the Green. Hazel is very glad that last names aren't stationary. Doris Kleinhammer-Doris has citizenship papers in the class of '21, and hails from the Applegate-nuf said. Besides being a popular music shark on a Baby Grand CNet Chevroletl. Dory'7 holds down a back seat in the assemlbly and collect.s a small sum in deport- ment because of amusement aroused by Ming Aitkenf' We hear and they say that Ashland doesn't hold interest for .Doris anymore, but they suggestl' Nevada City, Dunsmuir, or Oakland- - -. We wonder. Ida Elder-If size mattered, Ida would be out of luck. but it doesn'tEeXcept in seeing a parade, so she can 't be bothered. Many are the thrilling tales of her eseapades at the Practice house and many a cake has she devoured in Assembly the period after cooking. Some may think Ida is Hspoofingn but she really means to be a teacher. The subject she would like to teach is the art of Eating Although not in the Fiji Isle or any other place having cannibalistic tendencies. Jennie Dowd-To mention all the things Jennie Dowd can do would be to write a book. VVelll just tell a few. She makes delicious popcorn balls and twanged on a steel guitar until the neighbors moved. Heil house was the scene of many a gay frolic during the brief history of the Dramatic Society-and is yet, to a certain Rousing young man. Though brave enough to show her ears Jennie is afraid of spiders. She has stage ambitions and artistic ability and is always called on to give a reading or draw posters which she does with a right good will. Vida Bradshaw- Oh shuxw-Vida bemoans the fate of a lone- some maid and wishes she was in Eagle Point. VVe have heard that Vida's favorite pastimes are riding horseback, walking home after being marooned on a muddy road, and teaching singing. They say she is a capital hostess and Jennie must know. Vida used to dissipate and go to teachers' lectures but once she fell asleep during an interesting one and since then has lived a quiet life. For her school next winter, she has a waiting list of janitors and unless she breaks contracts will have to teach fifty years to give each one a chance. George RossiHNow. listen gSays George, and tells how he is going to remain a bachelor all his life. George was originally a Tal- ent product but has been with the class since a Sophomore, when he wisely led it through the haze of such a deluded year. He plays football and annually breaks his nose besides being an officer 11lififfIQffIffQIffQffQffflffffw i'I 'fQf 28 ffiflf I'm'1ffQffffQfQQffjjg 1
