The tal WINNIFRED MEAD, Wim Oh time, Hy on for me. Winnifred's most joyous hours are spent an- ticipating a party or dance, or watching the clock bring nearer the blissful moments. She has good powers of speech and is a good pal. Senior Basket Ball Team, 45 Gym., 4. MIRIAM NICHOLS, Peg. I was not born for court or state affairs.

METCALF, 'fviggiex' NVhy do I smile? Why do I weep? l do not know5 it lies too deep. NVe are accustomed to seeing Virgil with her violin in her hands and hearing her tune it up on those enchanting mornings when the or- chestra plays, nor have we forgotten that she can argue and debate. Orchestra, 4 and 3. DOROTHY MILLER, Dotty. MILDRED NOVACK, Novey Hers is a life that is free from care. The Seniors will always remember Mildred's slow, precise, but impressive oratory.

When the Wanderlust seizes me, I am otf and away. We shall not soon forget the smiling, care free little Senior, whose delight it was to make some one else laugh.

RHONA PATTERSON, Pat A day in April never came so sweet. -R.hona's neat attractions, friendliness, humor, joviality make her liked by everyone.

If ideas are to 1'ule the world in the coming years, then Howard will be a leader among men. His original work in class room, his invaluable aid to B. H. S. in contributing ideas to the school activities, his grasp of details and ability at the same time to see the whole, his tact and consideration in working with others, and his generosity in giving credit to his fellow students have made his four years in B. H. S. fruitful to him and to us. Few persons can estimate the high order of his work on The Dial.
