THE NUGGET THOMAS MANDEVILLE Basket Ball Team. Football Squad. Silence is Golden. Thomas Mandeville, one of the many (?) boys of the Senior Class, has made a great reputation for himself during his High School course. He is very fond of his teachers. Miss Schnirel. we believe, is his favorite for he spends an hour with her after school almost every night. He is very bashful most of the time, except when he is holding hands with a certain one of the fairer sex. One of Tom’s favorite tricks is to put a dead mouse in one of the girl’s books or down her back. JEANNETTE PADGETT “Silent Jeannette” Yes! Here she is! Our shy Jeannette with her raven black hair and rosy red cheeks. Although she does not |H)ssess the “gift of gab” that some of us have, she has won the love and friendship of her classmates and teachers. Highest Goal—Stenographer. PEARL RIC KER Captain of Class Basket Ball Character in Senior Play, Member of Social Committee. “Pearl of rare value.” Pearl is one of the star members of the Senior basket- ball team. Outside sports do not keep Pearl from reaching the high spots in lessons. Her good nature and her one hobby—the kiddies in the grades—have made Pearl the gem of our Senior Class. Destination—Montclair Normal. BEULAH SANDERS . “Trouble comes not alone.” Beulah is a good sjK rt as everyone will agree. She likes fun as much as the rest of us and is game for any mischief, but she’ll make up for this in the future, when she is the dignitied teacher she wishes to become. Destination—Montclair Normal. TERESA SISCO Teresa Sisco entered B. H. S. a very quiet little girl. But now, Oh my! Whenever we see Teresa she has those beloved Latin books. In fact Teresa talks about school and her books in her sleep. Teresa is one of those brilliant pupils in Mr. Dawson’s room, where she can work “Trig” and sell a pair of Emerson shoes at the same time. Teresa is going to be a school teacher. Almost any morning one may sec Mr. Walton take her by the hand and lead her to teach one of the grades. After a few years we shall set Teresa in Mr. Walton’s place. Eleven

T II E N U G GET GERTRUDE GORRV “Gertie” Girls Basket Ball Team (3), Varsity Debating Team (4). Gertrude Gorry is one of the brightest members of the class of ’20 and is also a very attractive “girlie”. We can prove this is true by the fact that she has been able to attract the attention of “Tom” who is one of the most bash- ful Seniors in the world. He has been seen several times holding hands with her. Destination—Montclair Normal. GRACE HAYCOCK “There is much to be said on both sides.” Grace is everyone’s friend. She is neutral on all sub- jects. Especially is Grace acquainted with Kipling’s “If”. When asked by Miss George if we knew this poem. Grace was the first to reply with “If I sjioul die,” whereupon a stormy scene ensued as handkerchiefs flew from all direc- tions. We had not expected so sudden a departure. GLADYS JOHNSON Girls’ Basket Ball Team. Gladys followed the steps of her sisters before her and has therefore spent four long years of school life with us. At the basket ball games we would scarce be at home unless we saw Gladys romping with the ball. Yes. Gladys is popular and athletic ami is well liked in school and out hy both sexes. ANGELINE LEWIS Our “Angelic” Member. Angeline Lewis is the shortest and most “Angelic” member of (’lass 20. She was once a very active student in the commercial course, but something has changed her mind and she wants to be a school teacher instead. When asked by Miss Schnirel what her name was in Spanish she answered. “I don’t know. Angelic or something like that.” Well she lives up to her calling. I’m sure all her teachers will vouch for that. Destination—Uncertain. DOROTHY MANDE VILLE Very simple, very neat. Very quiet and so petite. Her eyes are blue, her smile is sweet. That’s our little Dot. Destination—A little homemaker. Ten

THE MGGET r ANNA SMITH For four long years we have all enjoyed the company of Anna. Although she seems rather quiet and bashful in school, it would not la‘ safe to say that she is the same out of school, especially when she is in the company of ••Bill.” She is striving to be a stenographer and we all wish her success. HELEN FAUX Comjioser of Class Prophecy. There was not a more bashful girl, who signed up for the Latin course in 1916, than Helen Faux. We have seen little of her this year because she has been in the underworld with Virgil. She comes up occasionally, but only to get lost in the wonders of biology. Then too she is class prophet and her time is always fully occupied. She is very popular, however. MAMIE KYTE Mamie is a new comer in our class. Although starting in her Junior year she has gained fan , especially with a certain gentleman named “Deck”, who is easily five times as large as she. Mamie's aim in life is to be a stenographer and we all wish her success. a NORMAN WIGGINS Living. Walking, Human, lied-Headed Vaudeville. Senior Play. Varsity Basket Ball Team. Debating Team, President of Debating Society, Athletic Ed. of Nugget, Student Council, Football Squad. Destination—Ministry( 7) During his four years of High. Norman has been the shining light in all his classes. Many a day lie has made Miss George bite her lips to keep from laughing at him when she should be scolding. He even made Miss Bates scream with laughter when she said to him. “Why are you fussing with your tie instead of studying Latin?“ and he proudly replied. “It’s a new one.” In “The New Co-Ed”, Norman was the prominent character—our crazy Punch.
