“ Whose is that noble dauntless brow ? And whose that eye of fire ?” EARL WOODWORTH—This noble figure looms before us as “Moike” of Literary and Debating Club’s play. Earl informed us one day in Virgil class that “’tis pleasant sure to pass one’s lips over the smooth Reed,” so we infer that his high school life has not been unpleasant. With Banta he will act as testator for class day. He expects to enter Cornell next fall for an agricultural course. Further announcement as regards the future is carefully withheld from publication. “The world knows nothing of its greatest men.” LELAND CARVER—Athletics will bring Carver a renowned future. Judging from the splendid games of his High School days, basket ball will be the star feature. Though public announcement has not been made by him, it is more than probable he will aid the Y. W. C. A. in supporting their big games of the season. “A hit, a very palpable hit.” CHARLES CLARK—Fortune has certainly smiled on Clark during his brief career with us. One ot his greatest successes was made in the play, ‘‘Between the Acts,” given by Friday and Congress Clubs. Whether the applause was due to the clown suit or to his acting is hard to state. Both were natural and becoming. At any rate he will deliver an oration class day. He has been Senior Class treasurer the past term, an office of grave responsibility. Later life will bring changes, however. With the support of Miss Spaulding he intends to elevate the drama by a new and novel interpretation of Romeo and Juliet “Towering in the confidence of twenty-one.” CHARLES DEYO—At present Deyo has undisputed possession of the title of champion bowler of the school. With such a reputation the future should open a large area of possibilities for him. “Young fellows will be young fellows.” FRED DEYO—Fred has had a pleasant time through High School. In the enjoyment of the present he has made no plans for the far distant time of ‘‘after graduation.” He has been secretary of the Senior Class and in that position commanded due respect, usually being able to read his own writing. 11

SENIOR CLASS OUTLOOK “Frank, haughty, rash—the Rupert of debate.” EDMUND AYERS—During his course Ayers has distinguished himself as a speaker, securing an hon¬ orable mention in the preliminary contests of both this year and last year. He has been secretary and vice- president of Congress and is the present Sergeant-at-arms of the Senior Class. After a year of work he will take up the study of law. “Prefer to be good rather than to seem so.” FRED ALBER—Enters Cornell for a regular B. A. course in September. Alber has a good reputation with Miss Rogers, because he alone, of all our students can appreciate German oaths. “A progeny of learning.” KENNETH BANTA—Has held many positions of honor while with us. At different times he has been editor-in-chief of the Panorama, vice-president and secretary of Debating Club, and assistant manager of the 1910 foot-ball eleven, secretary of the Senior Class and treasurer of the latter. (N. B.—The money was safe.) Class day will also bring him a position of prominence as testator; truly an illustrious career, and now the latest and most astounding achievement is the honor of salutatorian. He will enter Amherst in the fall. “Such strong renown as time shall ne’er decry.” AUBREY BOWEN—Our revered President has attained great fame in successfully pulling “1911” out of many trials and tribulations at the risk, however of life and limb! W T ith his silver voiced eloquence on the cheer leader’s platform, he has enthralled the crowd. Especially the girls! “I wear it for a memorable honour.” DOUGLAS BOYCE—Of calm and superior manner, Boyce will distinguish B. C. H. S. some day at the University of Pennsylvania in his awe-compelling declamations, and also in athletics, as he has been the star of our 1910-11 football squad and succeeded in winning the coveted Simpson medal in 1910. in

“Oh that this too, too solid flesh would melt.” FRANK ENGELBERT—Engelbert for the past two years has been a substantial aid to our football team as right guard and tackle. His presence lends dignity to every group of which he is a member. “By saying nothing you may pass for wise.” CURTIS FLETCHER—Fletcher’s life through High School well illustrates the above quotation. Still believing in this motto, that silence is wisdom, he is very uncommunicative as to his future. “He wears the rose of youth upon his cheek.” CHARLES GREENE-—Pink cheeked and guileless, Greene has made his gentle way through school. Is fond of dancing and mathematics—future uncertain. “Being nimble footed he hath outrun us.” FLOYD HAYNES—Not only in athletics but in soaring plans for the future, Hanes has excelled. He expects to go West and enter the Pacific College of Osteopathy. “To be rather than to appear.” ERWIN HYDE—Hyde has shone forth occasionally on committees, etc., but otherwise has modestly remained in the background. A course in engineering at Cornell will finish his preparation for later life. “Beware of two black eyes.” LELAND INSCHO—Now, Leland’s eyes haven’t a reputation for being dangerous—but—well they are black—and—it is always well to be careful. He is rather at a loss about his future and has been unable to make definite plans as yet. “And still the wonder grew and grew, That one small head could carry all he knew.” PAUL JENKINS—-The above quotation explains itself when we state that for the past term, Jenkins has been assistant business manager of the Panorama. In the fall he will enter Yale. “Forests have fields, and fields have eyes.” JOHN KENYON—One High School’s best basket ball player, Kenyon will enter the Baltimore school of Forestry. His own sensitive nature desires to protect the tender things of nature—enough said. 12
