Raymond Davidson - Ray n In one sense Ray is an extremist. This concerns his moods whioh at times are extremely serious and then again, he may be seen supplying excitement and laughter for a group of his classmates. Ray is termed an all around student because he excels in mathematics, sciences, and some sports. Add his personality to this and the result aoquired is a regular fellow . Intramural Sports 1,4; Radio Club 4; Senior Play; Committee Work 4. Edgar Decker Y hir-r---Buzz—z and he's off! Not Lindberg, Just Edgar. One of the most enthusiastic of future air-kings, hi9 presidency of the Aero-Y is the first step toward his wings . He seems quiet to us, but maybe we don’t know him--they tell us he really knows his airplanes, and that'll make a place for him in the future. Good luck, Edgar! Aviation 1, 2. Jennie De Fiore - Jean Y ords are rather inadequate when one tries to describe Jennie but let's try. Three words are very necessary-—action, speed, and results. Where Jennie is, they may all be found, with a lot of fun and rollicking good humor thrown in. From top to toe, she fairly bristles with pep, and an infectious giggle completes the merry whole. An executive position, and a good one must be included in Jennie's horoscope and she certainly deserves it.

DeGelleke - Jack Due to hi9 argumentative nature it's the consensus of the class that John has the makings of a great politician. Although seme teachers have accused him of filibustering during class periods, we believe that John is just aggressive and everyone knows aggressiveness paves the road to success .

Hazel Curtin Though she only came to us In her Junior year, she has made many friends through her genuine cheerfulness and friendliness. One of her most admirable qualities Is the practice of saying nothing unless It adds to the conversation, She Just couldn't escape that adjective intellectual- very long. We think she's Incomparable and very, very likeable, for vitally Important as her work Is, she finds time to express that radiant Individuality and smile with those lovely brown eyes of hers. Harold Curtis Tanforonade is one of Harold's characteristics, but our class wouldn't seem complete without a few students of this type. His inventive faculty is amazing. All through his high school career he has been known for his ability to concoct short ways of doing lengthy problems (much to the faculty's vexation). Harold's ohief interest Is in radio, a field with great promise and possibilities. Intrarpural Sports 1, 2; Radio Club 2, 3, 4; Junior Play; Spanish Club 3, 4; Track Squad 4. Lucille Damon Luoille is another one of our blondes with acting ability which was brought out by her parts in the Junior and Senior plays. Luoille is very capable and always ready with suggest7 ions. In the halls, she is seen as a very competent Service Club member. The library would be lost without Lucille'8 capable hand, which helps restore order and quiet. Intramural sports 1; Junior Play 3; Senior play 4; Service Club 4; Library staff 4; Wampus staff 4. Helen Daneski Helen's famous for her tricky little habit of absently winding a finger through a straying curl while she listens intently to her teacher. 8he may be small, but what a pile of books she carries! Industry, sincerity and studiousness are those admirable traits with which she has helped raise the scholastic standing of our class to a creditable degree.

Francis De Mouthe - Frank” A sort of forced laugh, a silly giggle, and one is cognizant of his presence. Such is the atmosphere created by this playful and happy-go-lucky fellow. Frank says he is not fascinated by the fair sex—we wonder. Christine Di Fiore Whenever you see Christine, you see a book. Books seem to have a magnetic appeal for this self-contained and placid member of our class. Something of their nature is reflected in her’s and there is little question but what Christine possesses one of the most admirable characters and personalities, in the school. She is like one of her pretty heroines, too, with her wavy hair, her pink cheeks, and extraordinary lashes. You can be our heroine any time, Christine. Intramural sports 2, 3, 4. Maurice Dixon - Sonny One will always find Maurice a willing audience, especially if the subject is horses. Although, for his vocation, Maurice has chosen to be a mortician, we all think he’d do better in the hoss trade. Freshman Minstrel; Committee Work 4. Joseph Albert Eannetta - Putts On the basis that a team’s as strong as its weakest member , Joe stoutly praises his home town, Mont-ville. He declares that the weakest member on the Montville baseball team is the water boy. We have to admit, Joe really is a good beseball Dlayer.
