He has a quiet manner, but is always ready to spread cheer. During hunting season Louis gives many interesting accountz of his adventures with nature. His genial disposition will always serve him wel on any occasion. HAIN, DONALD Hainie ACADEMIC Hainie is the mathematical 'iwhiz of the class. Whenever you look at Hainie you can usally find him laughing. He likes the girls and goes to all the dances. He plays the trumpet in the school band and with a little practice, maybe he will make a second Harry Iames someday. HAMILTON. IUNE nliimien COMMERCIAL U Iunie is the smallest girl in the class.

He is our editor for the yearbook, editor-in-chief of our school paper, and vice-president of the class. His beautiful art work keeps him occupied and he likes to play the drums during his spare time. Girls do not interfere in Eddie's activities and perhaps this is the answer for his good work. We anticipate for him a successful future. HART, HARRY ACADEMIC Wherever you find Bitler you find Harpo. His wise-cracks will never fail him. Harpo loves to impersonate characters on the radio. Friday morning assemblies just couldn't go on without him. Why that is, we certainly don't know. Harpo does his best work in chemistry class. We think I-Iarpo might follow in his dad's footsteps and take over the printing shop. Best of luck in whatever you may decide to do! tl' I 1 EVALOW, ROBERT Bob ACADEMIC Philosophical, that's the word that best describes Bob. He does most of his serious talking to his neighbors, usually girls, in English class. If you ever see anyone whizzing around the corner, it's Bob on his motorcycle. We believe he would rather do this than eat. He likes to cowboy when it comes to driving anything, and one of these days he will find himself wrapped around a telegraph pole. More power to you, Bob. M HO H, ARLENE Hochie COMMERCIAL Hochie is the picture of neatness. Her beautiful, well-kept, blonde hair is the first thing to attract you. Our class would be lost without her fine secretarial work.
