58 THE NEW ERA Muriel Howell: Better known as “Mollie”. The gal with the re¬ putation for giving swell par¬ ties. Eh, Mollie? Ruby Keay: Ruby has been lost since Lena left. Favorite say¬ ing: “It doesn’t mean a thing.” Jack Kerr: Jack left us just after Christmas and we miss him very much, and wish him best of luck in his new undertaking. Evelyn Lindsay: III B’s actress and new “Blues Singer.” Favorite theme, “He joined the Navy”. Harold Long: III B’s would-be sail¬ or. Harold spends his spare time at the “Y” becoming a “bronze Adonis”. Mabel McNeil: We wish Mabel’s big moment wouldn’t send re¬ plies by morning mail; then Mabs might be able to get to school earlier. Mildred McMullan: Our petite blonde. Very quiet—at least in school. Bernice Mazier: When Bernice isn’t with III B she’s over in the “Industrial Arts” class learning to be a successful old maid (so she thinks). Connie Orchard: III B’s ‘page-boy’ beauty. Connie’s constant gum- chewing keeps her jaws work¬ ing in high gear. Mary Prevada: III B’s coiffure ar¬ tist. Mary can answer any ques¬ tion in Chemistry (?) Mary Robertson: That vivacious blonde, Connie’s pal. By the way, Mary, where did you get that laugh? Jack Somerville: III B’s peroxide blond. Jack’s best pal is his comb. Howard Smith: Tall, dark and dubious. Howard has two gals —sings about one, talks about the other. Jean Shankland: An ardent hockey fan and enthusiastic skater. Oh! yes—she also comes to school. Laurence Stringer: III B’s pint- sized camera fiend. Laurence is always worried by Miss Stra- chan and Mr. Bell on the home¬ work problem. Stan. Wilkins: Boy! those sunny afternoons sure were spent to advantage. —M.H. O. L. Harwood FINANCIAL AGENT Insurance Real Estate Rentals 23 Tenth Street PTione 2745

THE NEW ERA 59 FORM me Form Teacher.. Mr. Doctoroff Council Representative.Neomia Axford Girls’ Basketball Rep Dorothy Hurle This year III C was lucky enough to have two form teachers. We started the first of the year with Mr. Kirkpatrick but he left us at Christmas and Mr. Doctoroff was initiated into our realm of femmes. To celebrate our mid-winter party the boys of III A accompan¬ ied us to the slide. After lots of fun we returned to the school and took part in our favorite pastime (eat¬ ing) . We were lucky in our sports as most of the games in the basket¬ ball league were won by default. The team, under the able leader¬ ship of Dorothy Hurle, consisted of: Marguerite Hanson, Jean Smigelsky, Audrey Mulligan, Alice Avery, Alma Griddle, Charlotte Mathieson, Victoria Halliday. The Discussion Group was well represented by Anita Smith and Marguerite Hanson. Beulah Cristall represented III C in the Major Production and sev¬ eral other girls worked on the var¬ ious committees. Enter “Sunny Smiles” of III C. Alice Avery: “Little Alice” sup¬ plies the room with blotters from her (?) grocery store. A newcomer to the school and an essential part of III C. Neomia Axford: Jitterbug of III C. Favorite song used to be “Char¬ lie is my darling” hut now it’s “I ‘Ken’ give you anything hut love.” Elna Baglo: III C’s blonde and how she does love to “Carey” on. Helen Bocker: One of III C’s bright students. Helps to keep the room’s reputation for good work in everything. Jean Cameron: Seldom seen with¬ out Clara. Ambition to he a model.
