PANORAMA ANNUAL 1 926 xok id DJOIC Kathryn Beall “ Kay ” “A friend worth having is Kay.” Literary Club (2-3-4); Dom Econ (4); Basketball (3-4). Most everyone knows Kathryn, that pretty, slender little girl with dark hair and shining eyes. Because genuine and true she was sterling all through and caused many a boy to sigh. And when Kay dances—well the “music fairly kills itself to listen to her feet.” Cora Bell “Deeds are better tilings than words Actions mightier Ilian boasting.” Special Chorus (3-4). This just fits Cora because she ac¬ complished much, but did very little talking. She worked hard but never was heard boasting. Cora left us in January. Lois Barrett “Midget” ••Her cares rest heavily upon her (f)“ Special Chorus (1-2-3); Dom Econ (1-2). “Her cares rest heavily upon her.” If we were employing the method of con¬ trast in describing Lois Barrett (See Chapter 10, paragraph 5, of any English grammar for explanation) we might use tlie above to good advantage since Lois is so exactly opposite to the statement. Not that she’s careless, or too uncon¬ cerned—not at all; she simply refuses to be worried, because of which we fi nd her a pretty handy little person to have around. Barbara Bliss “Bob u “Wliat stature is she off She ' s just as high sis my heart.” Literary Club (1-2-3-4), Sergeant-at-Arms 2-4); Corporal, Girls’ Civic League (1); Disinger Contest (1-2), Second Prize (2) ; Civic Club Debate, Ring (2); Second Prize Weeks Contest (2-3); De¬ bate Award (2); Public Speaking Award (3) ; Dramatics Class Play “Mary the Third” (3); Award’s Council (3); Dra¬ matics Award (4); Assistant News Edi¬ tor “Pan” (3), News Editor (4); B. C. H. S. Gold Key (4); “Panorama” Award (4) ; Honor Student; Class Notable— Heart Breaker (Girl). “Bob” is blessed in that she possesses rare charm mingled with ability in many school activities. We are blessed be¬ cause we’ve had her with us for four years and we certainly do appreciate her. Page Thirty

XOK PANORAMA ANNUAL 1 926 XOK Hazen Brooks “Haiti” “He ' s pleasant and dependable.’’ Introducing Hazen Brooks, another of the future bank presidents now graduat¬ ing from our commercial department. He’s that stocky, blond fellow; the proud (?) possessor of two dimples as a dis¬ tinguishing feature of a broad smile. Hazen, in pursuing his earnest way through this institution, has been an ac¬ tive supporter and a dependable fellow. Ruth Ballard “It ' s not because you’re jolly And never a trifle blue. Hut the reason we all love you Is just because you’re you.” Dom Econ (2-3-4); Friday Club (2-3-4); Basketball (3-4). By her helpfulness, her friendship, and her cheerful manner she grows into the hearts of all. She is a true friend to everybody, a sport under all circum¬ stances, a representative of the best things of life, and as human and fun- loving as one could wish. Glendola Bixby “Sugar” “She who trifles with all, Is less likely to fall. Than sbe who but trifles with on e.” Chamber of Commerce (2-3); Dramatics Class Play “The Truth” (4). Glendola is full of fun and loves a good time. But then, who doesn’t? Did you notice a clever sketch in the Junior number of the “Pan”? Well, Glendola wrote it, which goes to prove that she has talent. Besides, she has been on the stage—in our own auditorium of course. Evelyn Briggs “And when a lady’s in the ease. You know all other things give place.” Special Chorus (1-2); Dom Econ (2-3-4); Literary Club (2-3); Junior Basketball, Senior Basketball, Senior Hockey Team, Chamber of Commerce (4). Pep Gameness Good looks A bright manner Readiness for a good time All these bound together in a girl. Result—Evelyn Briggs. Page Twenty-nine

k==xok= PANORAMA ANNUAL 1926 . -hok zzzX Howard Bird “ Bud ” “I like the world—the world likes me.” Cross Country Letter Man (3); Glee Club (4); Special Chorus (4). That blond, medium-sized fellow witli the ready smile and quick wit pictured above is “Bud”. He surely can’t be called a “dead one” for whenever there is any fun going- on he is always at hand to participate and contribute. On the wings of his sunny, even, disposition a certain Bird has already soared high in our estimation. Just keep flying, Howard! Ina Butterfield “Happiness is not to he prescribed, but enjoyed.” Literary Club (3-4); Junior Basketball Team (3); Interclass Tennis, Hockey, Basketball, and Baseball Teams (4); Honor Student (4). “Hello?—Yes, this is the Recording Angel.—Ina Butterfield?—Just a moment. Baxter—Bollman, yes, here it is—Butter¬ field.—Hmm.—Not a thing against her.— Good student, good sport, good friend and a jolly sort of person to know. What?— Is she a snob!—Not at all, not at all.— Yes, she has my highest recommendation. —You’re welcome. Call again! Good¬ bye!” Ruth Barnes “A look and a Ninile for all.” Dom Econ (2-3); Friday Club (4). You Stop! Look! and Wonder! when Ruth comes around. You stop to find out where the laughter comes from; you look and see Ruth with her many friends; and then you wonder how anyone can have so many. The quotation explains. Jack Casey “ Skip ” “There i.s a San (a Claus. Scholarship Insignia (1-3); Honorable Mention, Poetry Contest (2); Varsity Basketball, Assistant (Manager (3), Man¬ ager (4); Congress Club (3-4); Inter- class Basketball Team (3); Varsity Tennis (3-4), Sectional Championship Doubles Team (4); Circulation Manager “Morning Sun”, Boys’ Week (3); Sports Editor of “Panorama” (4); Chairman of Invitation Committee (4); Honor Stu¬ dent (4); Class Notable—.Most Original; Class Prophet (4). What sixth sense is it which tells Jack how long he can put off writing those athletic notes without endangering his life? He always seems to know. We never yet have known Jack to get them in on time (maybe that’s why we are al¬ ways so glad to get them when they do come). Nevertheless, he has been known to appear serious and settle down to hard work, when the occasion demanded it. IlLLlTTTmiLlilJjliJnn rrmTiTTmiTml l Page Thirty-one
