Toots Lucy Norma is one of our country lasses, but it didn’t take her long to make many Athens friends. She is always ready for a laugh and is really a swell sport. That Norma can usually be found studying is evidenced by the fact that her name always appears on the honor roll. Norma is an excellent home-ec student and a staunch supporter of the Domecon Club. This cheerful friend of all is lxuind to meet every kind of success. Our Lucille is always well-dressed. She is a pretty girl, neat, intelligent, and friendly. She lias many pals because of her pleasing personality. Her clear skin and beautiful hair bring her many compliments from teachers and classmates alike. She is an industrious, honor roll student. Lucy’s short, (that’s no detriment, even if “he” isn’t), and sweet, (no comparisons to “him” this time) — with a fine start toward a successful future. NORMA PARKS LUCILLE PARMENTER T J -4 fi HARRY PATTERSON DONALD PATTON Bud's Plymouth is usually seen packed full of many “mighty’’ seniors, but where is Bud? Why, under that non-descript hat which he is seldom without, of course. Bud is the fellow who brightens every conversation with his witty sayings and manages to keep everyone in stitches. He is also an officer and very active member of the Hi-Y. We know that Bud will take the high road to success. Who’s that we sec, or should we say hear, coming down the street toward school on his motor controlled bicycle?? We can always tell that it is none other than Bob, by his brightly colored shirt and blonde hair. It seems that two of his favorite pastimes are talking and teasing the girls. He is another returned service man and we wish him the best of everything life can bring. Bud [28] Bob

Lou Munn When we hear a hearty, good natured laugh, we know Lou has arrived. What is all the buzzing going on between Louise and Helen in Home Economics Class? Lou is an efficient base drummer in both band and orchestra. If you happen to be touring East Athens on a Sunday afternoon you are liable to see a 1939 DeSoto parked in front of Louise’s house. Good Luck and Best Wishes. Are you feeling blue? If so, here is one of the best remedies we know of. Munn, with her bright and shining smile, could cheer up the gloomyist of people. Some of her favorite pastimes arc ice skating and going to Eike’s Soda Fountain. She has a charm and a personality all her own, that will go far in this world, and we wish her all the luck possible. LOUISE MULLEN SHIRLEY MUNN EDWARD MOLYNEAUX EDWARD PALMER Having Ed with us all through school has been a rare treat. His good humor and kindly manner, combined with his never ending interest in studying, and his sprightly cooperation in outside activities, have made him an ideal classmate. Ed is always willing to help teachers and students alike. Although Ed always seemed to have his share of the tough breaks, he always came back just as determined as ever. Our departing words to him are sincere wishes for success. A red plaid shirt, a broad smile, and unique ability in athletics are some characteristics which remind us of Ed. His favorite pastime, besides sports, is teasing Miss Bean. He has a set goal to reach, and, although sonic things such as the Marines may hold him up, we know that some day he will be making history on a baseball diamond. We’ll be cheering for you all the way. Bunk. r 27 } Ed Bunk

Pudge D Here’s a blonde, blue-eyed sweetie, with everything from brains to looks. No wonder Betty has so many pals. Coming down the hall with a cheery smile on her face, she greets each and all—sophomores, juniors, and seniors. She is the type that really makes things perk; consequently there is never a dull moment when Betty is around. She’s usually with her best friend, Doris. We know she will be a success in her career as a nurse. Good luck, Betty. BETTY PHELPS We have in our class one of the nicest girls we have ever known. Naturally we mean Donna, the girl with much beauty and ability. Her sparkling eyes and sweet smile have made her a favorite with teachers and students. Donna has promising skill in the fields of art and writing. She is lots of fun and will always lend a helping hand. An asset to the class of ’47 is our D. DONNA POWERS MARY ANN RAULERSON We present Mary Ann, who is one of our all-time favorites. She’s everyone’s friend, in-, deed. Her talents cover just about everything from extreme excellence in sports to prize knitter in the class, with scholarship, popularity, and generosity, all rolled up in between. She has participated in and contributed to nearly every important event our class has encountered; and if you don’t believe her smile is intriguing, just glance at her picture. We wish her luck with her college career. JOYCE ROGERS An all-round girl is Joyce. Besides being the life of first period study hall, always ready for a good time or laugh, she is a member of the Triple Trio, and is a star home-ec student. This is quite a combination, so you shouldn’t be surprised to know she is among our favorite seniors. We all wish her the best of everything, and know she will have it. Impy [29 1 Jo-Jo
