Iler clieek its morning flame.” (Hair not mentioned by request.) Special Chorus (2-3-4) Bertha is a quiet, mouse-like little girl that has been with us in the “knowledge factory” for the last four years. And she’s been doing her best to be worthy of her school. Think of the will power it takes to be at school every day with lessons prepared. Whenever any responsibility falls he: way, she is on the spot. Her type carries through all it attempts without any ado. Silently goin ? about her work, she accomplishes more than one might realize. Al¬ ways working, never shirking, Bertha’s going to be a success. She is one of the reason’s I ' m glad I’m in High School. Minnie Cady “Min” “You bring us : 1! good cheer.” Literary Club (1-2), Sergeint-at- Arms (3-4); Special Chorus (1-2).

PANORAMA ANNUAL Hahhy Bilcoyitcii ‘‘The world knows nothing of its greatest men.” Honor Student. Harry is that genius who finds it possible to get through B. C. H. . in three years. How does lie do it? It surely indicates either a remarkable intellect or an indomi¬ table perseverance, possibly, in Harry’s case, it is both. Granny Butkaucki ‘•By (lie works ye shall know the workman.” Honor Student. We can’t say just what it is about you, Geddy, that makes us like you so well. Maybe it’s be¬ cause you always have your les¬ sons on time and well done with¬ out bothering - the whole school about it. Maybe it’s because we never see you without your friendly smile. But we really think the sum total of it is, that you are your¬ self, and tha.t that little something or rather big something called per¬ sonality—is yours. Helen Bicsko “Simplicity is a state of mind.” Special Chorus (1-2-3-4); Glee Club ( 1 ). Helen is fast but sure—when she’s driving her Packard. She is always good natured, a character¬ istic with which she won many sin¬ cere friends. Those who do not know her realize a great loss. FnEDEsrcK Balduf ‘ ' Fred yy “A cheerful smile goes a long way.” Congress (2); Special Chorus (2-3). Science is Fred’s pet subject. He likes it so much, he’s going to teach it, and try to make others like it too. He’s going to Albany State Teachers’ College to study further and learn the intricate explanation of the reason why an apple falls to the ground when it parts company with the tree. You’ve missed some¬ thing if you haven’t known Fred¬ erick. Page Twenty-four

PANORAMA ANNUAL Norton Cook “ Cookie” ‘‘Who sonedi Rood seed shall surely reap.” Congress Club (2-3-4); Chamber of Commerce (2-3-4), President (4); Hi-Y (3-4); “Cookie” (no, that’s not a slam— il’s Norton’s nickname) has been attending B. C. H. S. for four years, doing his work well and making lots of friends for everybody—a greeting that one is always glad to hear. A person who has this “Cookie” for a friend is certainly lucky for he’s a real, true-blue friend. We’re sorry to bid Norton Cook good-bye but we won’t forged him and we feel safe in betting that he will make a success in the business world. Louise Crossley “La” “A wilty beauty i.s a power.” Literary Club (1-2-3-4); Corporal, Girls’ Civic League (1-2); “The Man on the Box” (3); “The Ro¬ mantic Age” (3); Dramatic Award (3); Student member of G. O. Council (3-4); Assistant coach of “Mary the Third” (4); Coach of Literary Club play, “Suppressed Desires” (4); Class Notable— Noisiest girl. Without a doubt, “La” is one of the most all-around girls in school. Besides regular school “engage¬ ments,” she is a most versatile actress, and one of our budding G. O. politicians. She can dance n’ sing, n’ everything. She enjoys the voluntary position of Literary Club’s chauffeur and is willing to help wherever she’s needed. ,‘La” is having a great time deciding where to go next fall but wherever she goes success is sure to be her roommate. A friend to all and a friend of all, “La” has been one of us and one for us, and we’ll all admit that she’s a “Hefty” dame. Edna Carman ‘ Eddie” “Silence is sweeter than speech.” Special Chorus (3). Carman means song. Edna has personified this idea for her high school career lias been one sweet song. Though she has probably had her cares, they never show in her face, and thus we get a feeling of peace when near her. Our best wish for her is that she may live her whole Life to the same sweet melody that accompanied her higli school career. William Chittenden “Bill” “In every good cause, you’ll find him.” Varsity Tennis (2-3-4); Hi-Y Club (3-4), President (4); Sport Editor Panorama (3); Secretary of G. 0. (3); Manager of Football (4); Scholarship Key (4); High Honor Student 94.321 (fourth). Bill can show anyone eight re¬ port cards the kind of which most of us only dream. And besides this he has found time to be President of Hi-Y, Sports Editor of the “Pan¬ orama,” Secretary of the G. O., Manager of Football, and get his letter twice in Tennis. How did you do it, Bill? Hill School is going to be mighty fortunate when Bill enters in preparation for his college career at Yale. Page Twenty-six
