ELLEN DAY BONNIEIELD S11f00!b I'7llI,f the wafer where llae brook if deep. Loyal in friendship, powerful in influence, these are the two qualities which best describe Ellen Day. Day is really a friend to all, for she often goes out of her way to be nice, and she is sincere in her friendship with everybody. She can be very busi- nesslike, and has had to be, for she holds the highly important otlice of managing the Weather-Cock. When there is any mis- chief to be done, Day is always right there, too. Ellen Day will probably be far from us next year, but the impression she has left upon all of us will not easily be forgotten. EMMA IOE CLARK Age mmzot wifher her, Nor fzlffom Jlale ber ifzfuite Zfdl'f6'fJ'.U joe is our perennial delight! Her infinite variety, her love of life, and her joyous nature keep everyone around her happy. Although she has been at Barstow only two years, she has gained many loyal friends and has made everyone fond of her and her happy disposition. joe is an active and much admired member of the Pretenders. She took one of the principal parts in the Glee Club Operetta this spring and did her part so well that it has been talked of ever since. Everywhere she goes she will win many friends, and when Barstow loses her others will gain a happy, joyous companion. IEANNE DODDS Her mmzy lorkr hang on her zfefnplef Like 4 golden fleece. About the middle of our junior year we added one more girl to our class. Doddsie may have been a little surprised at some of our wild antics, but now you,d never know she'd been any place but Barstow. Her willingness and responsible attitude are two of her finest characteristics, and her good nature and charm have placed her high in the hearts of many. Almost every day after school Jeanne may be seen piling her car full of girls and taking them home. We're awfully glad you happened our way, Doddsie, but you didn't come soon enough.

N ATHALIE BABKEB AJ llI6'l'I'y ar llae day is long. Since Nat has been in high school, she has faithfully entered into all Barstow activities. Nat's joyous nature and unlimited energy have won her membership in Glee Club and Pretenders, and in both organizations she has proved herself worthy ot handling a great deal of responsibility. Sterling honesty is a gem that shines brightly in any setting and the one who possesses it has a priceless asset. This is Nathalie's finest characteristic and a truly great one. Wherever she may be next year, her charm and vivacity will surely win her many friends. BARBARA BEBGER I 1111111 have liberly llmilfmzl, rzr large 41 charlw' df live 11'i11d. Barstow and Bobby have been together for thirteen years. except for one year in the seventh grade which breaks the thirteen spell. Glee Club and Pretenders know her good voice and notable acting ability, and to each group she has been I1 valuable member. All of us love Bobby for her rare humor and we admire her for the respect she commands from the Freshmen. There seems to be a lasting freshness and spontaneity about Bobby that we all cherish. She keeps everyone laughing and merry with her good nature and ready wit. IOSEPI-UNE BISHOP I'll am! be lied In loolnif of lpoinfed limer 1311! lerzm my le.i1i'n11.r rzf I plague 111y.reff, jo came to Barstow during her junior year and soon made a place for herself in our class. She has a truly amusing personality and invariably adds some clever remark to set off our discussions in class meetings, This was clearly shown by the way she carried otf one of the best parts in the Glee Club Operetta. Not only did she keep us entertained during rehearsals, but when the night of the operetta rolled around she was even funnier than ever, May she always keep that happy disposition and at her next stop make as true a place for herself as she has made here at Barstow.

BETSEY GRANT She ir 4 great 0bJefz'er, and .rlve lanky Quilt' flvmzrgfa lhe deedr of men. Wfhenever there's work to be done, a game to be won, or fun to be had, Bitta is there to lend a hand. No girl in the Senior class is a more willing friend. In the Pretenders, on the Senior basket-ball team, and in her classes Bitta's cheery dispo- sition is an addition in all that we do. Barstow knows and appreciates the spirit and cooperation that Betsey gives, and the Senior class is proud of her. HELEN HAWES I dare do all fha! may heroine 41 1l'0lll111I.' ll lm rltzzw do more if none. Hawsie is one of the Seniors who has climbed high on our ladder of achievement. She is Vice-President of the Glee Club and we expect much of her outstanding musical ability. Her talents are widespread, for she is also an active member of the Pretenders. In athletics Helen shines. She is one of our speediest runners and is Barstow's ping-pong champion, which title she holds with a firm hand. Every year for three years she has won our annual contest-the years before that there was no contest or Hawsie would have won it. Amid other things, Helen has a grand sense of humor and her laughter is often heard ringing down the halls. Her everlasting pep and merriment are so contagious that she keeps the girls around her in constant glee. MARIORIE HEWITT Hllvhal .rfalnre ir .the of? fm! ar high ar my head. Never was there a girl who could concentrate amidst the flurry and excitement of classes and study halls like Margie. She is never upset by the noise and bustle about her. Margie is the calming influence on our turbulent group. Her unselfishness and quiet cooperation have been a great asset to the class. But she can be fun, too. When she laughs her whole self laughs, espe- cially her eyes. We'll all remember her for her splendid charac- terization in the play 'Mushrooms Coming Up. She stole the show and had the whole house in an uproar. Knowing her this short year has made us realize that we missed a really fine person by not having her sooner.
