DODDS, DORIS ATWATER 59 S. Winooski Ave. Doris General Course There isn ' t much choice, but we should guess that this one is the more dignified half of the twins who does her best to uphold the family honor. She loves a good time, to dance and has a special liking for Morris (Maurice) chairs. Honors: French Club (4); French Play (4); Class Basketball (4). DODDS, LOUISE RUSSELL 59 S. Winooski Ave. Butlily General Course ' Tain ' t her hair — ' tain ' t her smiles ' Tain ' t her eyes — ' tain ' t her wiles ' Tain ' t her silvery voice you say Tell you what — it ' s just her way. Louise is pretty to walk with, witty to talk with and pleasant to think upon, but all joking aside she works hard at play and at studies. Ask any- body if he ever got in an argument with her. Who won? We wonder. Honors: Middy Com- mittee; French Club (4); Class Day Usher (3); Class Basketball (3), (4), Captain (4); Basket- ball Banquet Committee (3); Oread Board (4); Junior Banquet Committee (3); Varsity Basket- ball (4). DRURY, EDWIN ISAAC Essex Junction, Vt. Ed General Course Within a year ' s time Ed ' s charming face had broken the hearts of all the girls at Essex High School, so he decided to come to Burlington where he could find new fields to conquer. He has been doing very nicely here and is getting along quite well in his studies too. Honors: Register Board (3); Commencement Usher (3); Class President (3); Junior Banquet Committee (3); Manager Track (2); Varsity Track (2). 27

COBURN, RUTH WINONA 6% N. Winooski Ave. Ruth Sub-Classical Course Ruth has shown admirable wisdom and taste in choosing the drawing of pictures for her special accomplishment. There are two reasons for this statement: First, art tends to develop a love for beauty and a certain atmosphere, a degree of cul- ture, so to speak, secured in no other way. Secondly (and we fear that our too material and unappreciating minds place an undue emphasis on this reason), her ability has been of inestima- ble value in ornamenting this Oread. Honors: Class Basketball (3), (4); Football Banquet Committee (3); Oread Board (4); Debating Club (4). CURRY, MARION MAY S. Burlington, Vt. Shadows Sub-Classical Course Marion always did like Bobs but now hers has grown out quite lengthy. She likes stars, and moons and nights and spooks and is extremely fond of shadows. She was the fast center on our class team and also the Varsity team. Her favorite cities are Montpelier and Barre. (Why Marion?) Honors: Class Basketball (3), (4); Varsity Basketball (4); French Club (4); Fresh- man Reception Committee (4). DESAUTELS, HENRY ROBERT 50 N. Champlain St. Dizzy Commercial Course Never do for yourself what you can get someone else to do for you. ' That ' s Henry ' s motto. Aside from all this wickedness Henry is a jolly good sport, both in work and play. Honors: Com- mencement Usher (3); Remington Primary Award: O. A. T. Certificate. 26

FAGGA, FRANCIS JOSEPH 375 St. Paul St. Francis Commercial Course Francis is one of those who are great of mind, but comparatively small of body. This arrange- ment would make him well fitted for getting out of tight places, so we predict that he will be a politician or an editor. Honors: Commencement Usher (3); School Bank (4); Royal Proficiency Award (4); Remington Efficiency Award (4); Underwood Bronze Medal (4); Remington Gold Medal (4); Advanced Certificate of Proficiency on Royal; C. T. Certificate. FLAX, HELEN DOROTHY 28C N. Winooski Ave. Dollie Sub-Classical Course What naturalist, however daring, would think of classifying Helen Flax under that species of great and awe-inspiring creatures that form the Senior class. It must be that appearances are de- ceptive for this infinitesimal creature is indeed a Senior and who knows but that she may in time become a greater personage than many a girl of twice her size? Honors: Class Secretary (1); Class Pin Committee; Class Day Usher (3); Junior Debating Team (3); Freshman Reception Committee (4). FORD, FRANCES 41 Loomis St. Flivver General Course Although Frances comes to us from Missouri, her intellectual ability places her among the first in our class in studies. And yet she is not a book worm as might be thought. Besides Frances has a wonderful line to spring on the mere man who is fortunate enough to meet her. 28
