MARSHALL ARMSTRONG MARSH 2245 N. CAMAC STREET Stoddart Machine Construction Marsh could usually be found surrounded by his many friends telling one of his witty stories and jokes. This well dressed hep-cat placed his machine work above all other interests, and in addition held the commendable record of never being late or absent during his stay at Franklin. This will undoubtedly account for his con- tinual reelection as class president. Activities: Class representative in Student Council. RICHARD BALASA DICK 4014 TEASDALE STREET Wilson Aero Although handicapped by lack of weight and height Dick, in his firsi term, put everything into gaining a Junior Varsity fooiball letter. After accomplishing this he decided to abandon sports and devote more time to his studies. Dick had a very genial personality and was well known for his aeroplane ingenuity . Activities: Iunior Varsity Football. JOHN HENRY BATES REDS 825 LELAND STREET Stoddart Commercial Reds expects to attend Howard University some time in 1946. During his stay at Franklin he was well liked by all his fellow classmates, and we know he will miss these halcyon days here. But he promises us that he will return to haunt us in later days, and we cannot do otherwise than welcome him. Reds plays the picmo and the saxophone. Activities: Basketball, Student Patrol. CLEMON BECKHAM BECK 1622 N. 27TH STREET Vaux Auto Mechanics Smiling, obsequious Beck always had a pleasant man- ner to offer us. Rather bashful at times! one could always count on him to do his duty. He was regular in attendance and devoted to his work. We con- fidently think that he will make a success in his chosen career. No man is as busy as the man with nothing to do. FRANKLIN ALMANAC Page 16
