Dorothy M. Braunstein Dotty le perhaps our most silent and conservative senior girl. Her only conspicuous characteristics are her neat and tidy appearance and her good taste. She Is seen often with her Llnooln Park neighbor and dose friend, Thelma Evans. Intramural Sports 2. Eugene J. Breiding Gene Is another person who accomplishes his alms efficiently and commendably with little fuss or noise. In the classroom he Is quiet, a dependable worker, and a good student. His a-blllty Is further exemplified by the fine and hard work that he puts In as treasurer of the Hl-Y. Band 2; Intramural Sports 2; Committee Work 3; German Club 3; Boys' Chorus 4. Elsie C. Brown Elsie Is a nymph-llke person who almost seems to be floating as she walks because she treads so lightly. She has wild curly blond hair that seems to defy her every effort of taming It. However, her hair certainly does not detract from her beauty, but on the contrary It greatly enhances her natural attractiveness. Elsie has a good voice and a very good sense of rythm.

Arthur Blanchard Jr. Champ is the biggest member of our class and is at his best when party to a heated argument. His humor and Individuality have made him well-liked by all those who know him, and a complete puzzle to those who don't. Beneath his towering dignity and reserve, there lies a warm understanding and a genial heart. Boys' Chorus 1; County Chorus 1; Band 2; Orchestra 2, 3, 4; Committee Work 2, 3, 4; Intramural Sports 2, 3; Junior Play; Senior Play; Service Club 4; National Honor Society 4. Howard Borgstrom The statement that appearances are deceiving might certainly apply to Howard. He speaks In a slow, drawling manner, yet so clear and logical are his statements that he never falls to clinch his argument or drive home his point. He never allows himself to become flustered or ruffled in any way, but Is always slow, certain and steady and has secured a stronghold on our admiration. Kamera Club 1; Intramural Sports 1; Service Club 3, 4; Committee Work 2. Lillian £. Bott Lillian comes from the wind-swept hills and dales of Rockaway Valley and her personality reflects her environment. She Is like a cooling breeze passing over our fervid brow. Although she Is quiet and reserved her cheerful personality has been felt by all. A neat and tidy appearance added to dignity go to make up a most delightful and valuable friend. Jack Brady Jackie Is the smallest member of our class but far from the quietest. His laughing blue eyes and good natured expression are ever present while frowns and scowls seec entirely left out of his make-up. Jack Is quite a fisherman and some Whopper teller. In fact we have yet to discover why one of those huge trout, of which he seems to catch such an abundance, does not open his mouth and swallow him. Committee Work 2, 3; Spanish Club 3; Chorus 3, 4. 1935

Frances Buis Modest and easily embarrassed, Frances can be seen many times a day with her face suffused by a bright crimson flush which spreads way down the baok of her neck and way up to the roots of her hair and oauses her ears to tingle furiously She has a contagious giggle which has upset the equilibrium of many a class and she is a happy and peppy companion, whose presence is in constant demand about the school Intrumural Sports 2, 3. Robert R. Burbridge Bob has been distinguished throughout his high school life In two very prominent ways. The first le his regular attendance at every school function, regardless whether it be a ■hop , a play, or a concert; the other is his red hair and freckles. Bob has alwAys been a loyal, willing classmate and hAS played his part in bringing reputation to that famous town of Lincoln Park. Intramural Sports 2, 3, 4; Committee Work 4; Chorus 2, 3, 4. Janet C. Burghardt A tiny person with more ability per cubic inch than anyone we know, describes Janet. She ha6 never a moment s peace for her services are constantly required either for typing, writing, or Just for her sensible opinion. What leisure time she has is actively filled with humor and sweetness. Whether we like Janet more when she is working or playing, is a decision we find extremely difficult to make. (HR) 2; Treasurer of Class 2; Wampus Staff 4; Committee Work 1, 2, 3, 4; Year Book Staff 4; National Honor Society 4. Jane C. Burns Jane has only recently become a member of our class and so we are not so well acquainted with her as we would like to be. She seems to be very courteous and tries very hard to please. Her conduct in the class room is unimpeachable and she never causes anyone any trouble or delay. She has kept herself s little in the background of school affairs but nevertheless, she has very good school spirit. 1935
