-F? ---vt-gf' ' F I s -,O'u THE HOTTENTOT is - -'nw' Page Three MARTHA CONWAY Commercial Martha is quiet and studious, al- ways ready to help others to patch things up. She wants to be a real- ly good nurse . Here's luck to you! ALBERT COOK Commercial Albert is a quiet boy who loves sports. He does not mingle with the girls. He is smart and ambi- tious in his school work and gets good marks. Albert will be a great success in the business world. VERNON COOKE General Inopportune remarks a 1 w a y s come from Cooky . He likes to talk and tease. A right good guy in spite of himself. BRICE CREIGHTON Commercial Brice, but a mere lad from Hoop- er's Island, came all the way to Cambridge High School to finish fwc hopej his last two years in school. He wants to be an accoun- tant, but I think he is going to be just a roaming troubadour . EVERETTE CREIGHTON Commercial Coonie , the harmonica wizard, has blown all of his cares away un- til he has nothing left but a beam- ing smile. Lots of luck in the mus- ical world. GRAYSON CREIGHTON Commercial If it's fun, enjoyment, and good humor you want, spend a little time with Gykes and you will laugh continuously. Carefree de- scribes him perfectly. HENRIETTA DASHIELL Academic Brilliant, quiet, and friendly- yes, that's our Hem-ly . She al- ways proved herself a friend in need at lunch time, for she never refused to loan a nickel to still- starved IV-A students. EDWIN DAYTON Commercial Leisure, wisecracks, fun and sleep -Ed's philosophy of life. He takes his own course, his own time, thinks his own thoughts and he of- ten sleeps. WINFIELD DEAN Commercial Sports, school work, and work outside of school hours, have taken Winiield's attention. Yet he has managed to do each successfully. SHIRLEY DILL Commercial Short, cute and mischievous, yes-that's our Shirley. Always ready to give aid, loves to play jokes and is popular with everyone. GEORGE ECKERT Commercial Look the whole world over you'll never find another one like George. He's one member of the class who wouldn't stay in one place if he could and we don't think he can. JACK EVANS ' Academic Jack is almost the noisiest boy in the senior class. He is always arguing on something he knows nothing about. His jokes are ter- rible, but he is liked by everyone. RUTH FAULKNER General The little girl with the big smile . Ruth loves to dance, and how! We hope that she succeeds in her ambition to be a nurse. IRVING GORDY Academic Student? Well! Athlete? Yes! Friend? Verily! A winning per- sonality? The best! In fact he is an all around good egg. A reg- ular C. H. S.'er. OLIVER GORE Academic Once in a while Oliver , but most of the time, just Gore . Al- though not an athlete, his slender stature and big smile can be de- tected at all athletic events. He goes about his tasks with a serious- ness and sincerity that gets them completed. SEWARD GRAY Commercial The Masked Singer of IV C and East Cambridge's Peck's Bad Boy , that's Maggie , He is certainly a surprise package. When asked to talk on the most interesting thing he had ever done, he chose Live for Sixteen Years . ELIZABETH GREER General Elizabeth is one of the few de- pendable and hard-working mem- bers of our class. We wonder how she turns in those well-written pa- pers long before the rest of us have started. PEARL HARGETT Commercial To the passing observer Shorty seems quiet and retiring. If she can not be found around the town you may be sure that she is at the movies. MACE HARPER Commercial When you feel downcast run right to Brick . If he can't cheer you up, your case is hopeless. His winning smile and modest blush will take him a long way. CARL HARPIJON Commercial Carl is a strange fellow. He works rather hard in his school work although he is a little slow in catching on. The women can cer- tainly inliuence Carl. Soon, may- be, Carl will find the type of work to which he is adapted. FLORENCE HIGGS Commercial Florence is one of the dependable and hard-working pupils of IV C. She hopes to be a good typist, and we all wish her the best of luck. WILLIAM HOGAN Academic He has a walk like a loafer, but he isn'tg a head of black hair, a ready smile-that's Bill . A real example of what southern hospi- tality means, makes him our southern gentleman- Yes suh . .. ELDRIDGE HORNER Commercial At a glance El seems to be a very quiet sort of fellow. He is al- ways quite Wright and is real- ly a fine friend. He's a good old guy with a ready smile. HILDA HUBBARD Commercial Hilda is a fine friend and a good sport who goes into everything with her heart and soul and a ready smile. To be successful in business is Hilda's ambition. VEACH HURLEY Academic An exceptionally fine student. Always cooperating in all subjects. His puns are side splitters and his love for swing is great. MARIE HURST Comme1'cial One never catches Marie step- ping out the night before a quiz. No sir! She's got something worthwhile under that auburn mass plus a personality and a kind helpful way. ANNA RUTH JONES Commercial Fun-loving and gay are the best words to describe Anna Ruth. She longs to work in an oflice. Well, we have a suspicion that that's not all she wants to do. JOHN PAUL JONES ' Commercial The tall, devil may care boy you see sitting in the Hottentot room every morning selling papers and pencils is none other than John Paul, himself. He is noted for the dumb jokes he tells. JUNE JONES Commercial June has a perfect disposition which never allows her to become rufiled, upset or angry. She is one of thc best natured persons we know. RALPH KINNAMON Commercial Tiny has a contagious laugh, and his appreciation of jokes may be heard all through the school. To nim high school has been one sweet song. WILLIAM LANGRALL Academic Bill is certainly a Lady Kill- er . It must feel good not to have to work hard in school. Bill must oe rather smart because he never seems to work hard. He is always bubbling over with laughter and jokes. Some day Bill is going places. ELIZABETH LeCOMPTE General Libby is a very quiet and friendly girl, who studies all the time. Everybody will agree when we say she's a real pal . GERALDINE LeCOMPTE Commercial A very talkative senior who's fond of going to Easton. She has also taken a sudden interest in baseball-we wonder why! JOHN LICHTI Academic John usually brings up the tech- nical point of View in everything. He is new think he schooling . at the school and we is prejudiced against BERNARD MACKELL General During his two years stay in C. H. S. he has made many friends be- cause of his excellent qualities as a conversationalist. Salt Water is most advanced on the topic of Pittsburgh. MILTON MALKUS Academic This husky country lad has made good in C. H. S. both as a scholar and an athlete. He is a good-na- tured fellowg quiet and neat. RAYMOND MARSHALL Academic The go-between for the girls, with an eye for scandal. Some of his antics in class would make excellent comic strips. Many girls think him cute . SEWELL MATTHEWS Academic Popular, athletic, this is Sewy , soccer captain, and member of bas- ketball squad. His running at the State Field Meet proved that he is one of the best high school run- ners in this state.

4,0 - . Page Four THE I-IOTTENTOT 13,4 JAMES MARSHALL Commercial Jimmie has struggled through all four years in a more nonchalant manner than most of us have been able to master. Athletics and studies combined, have held his at- tention. ROBERT MELVIN Commercial Bob our blond hero is still a rival of Clark Gable. At sports he has succeeded where others have failed. He will become a mil- lionaire playboy IF he marries a rich heiress. AUGUSTA MERRICK Academic A petite brunette, she wants to be a good nurse . Her personali- ty will take her far in every work. But PULLEASE don't call her Gussy . RUSSELL MESSICK Commercial Muzz will be remembered for his individual laugh. He is the lady killer of all times, the idol of them all. At sports he slightly slipped but he will make the grade someday. AUGUST MEYER Commercial July is a typical farmer boy. Sometimes he stays home to shoot rabbits. Gosh, he is cute with his red hair and freckles. You al- ways know when he is around al- though he is a little bashful. When he gets along a little farther in life he will get over being bashful. RUSSELL MILLS Commercial Jolly, helpful and energetic- that is Millsie , president of the senior class. He gets around with the ladies quite a bit too. As an engineer he will succeed, if he doesn't fall off the foundation. REBA MILLS Commercial Reba is quiet and studious. Al- ways willing to help her class- mates. This type of attitude will bring her much success. NAOMI MILLS Commercial Naomi is a quiet and friendly student. To her, in her future as a stenographer, good luck!

Quiet and helpful, and a true-to-life picture of an old-fashioned girl. FREDDY MOWBRAY General Small, quiet, and cute will de- scribe Freddy in all his power. He was nicknamed Fish Hook by Mr. Koch. Whenever there is a dull moment in the classroom Fish Hook can always liven things up a bit with his cheery ways. MARGARET MOWBRAY Commercial Three years has this damsel been playing basketball. She's our idea of a typical American girl- that's Skizz1e g pride and joy of C. H. S. athletic fans. BLONDY MURPHY Commercial B1ondy's ambition is to become a nurse.

Fred, so named, Dopey is always on the laugha- ble end of dopey jokes. He is also a rival of all boys for their girls. ARNOLD NICHOLS Academic Tall, neat, and athletic are three adjectives that best describe Nick . We admire him for his good sportsmanship both on and off the athletic field. ELLIS ORR Commercial Ellis, the school electrician, doesn't seem to find it difiicult do- ing his lessons and 'tending to the sound system at the same time. He is vice-president of the senior class and managing editor iand how he can managel of the Hot- tentot. WINNIE BELLE PATTISON General Winnie is very popular and well liked by us all. Very often she may be found in a corner giving advice to the lovelorn . EDWARD PETERS Academic Ed is probably the best all around student this school has seen for some time. He has done a fine job of editing the Hottentot this past year and his desire to enter West Point will in all probability be granted. LILLIAN PETERSON Commercial We will remember those crazy remarks that she has made in Eng- lish classes to get everybody gig- ling. We will miss this neat little lassie with every strand of hair al- ways in place. PAULINE PIKE Academic Polly has northern charm, straight from Massachusetts. Her generous gifts to art in C. H. S. will serve as a starting point when she sketches her way up the lad- der as an artist. ROBERT PIKE General A Yank at Cambridge , not Ox- ford. Robert is one of the few si- lent numbers in '38 and our idea of general efficiency. His is a de- lightful personality. MARGARET PINK Commercial Margaret succeeds in everything she attempts. Quiet and never un- tidy. Never early, but always just on time. FREDERICK PRITCHETT Commercial Freddie is known as Donald Duck to the girls, but just as Public Nuisance No. 1 to the boys.

ANNETTE ROBBINS Academic She was voted as the noisiest girl in IVAg our Annette will live up to her reputation if her ambi- tion as a singer is realized. LLOYD ROBBINS Commercial Lloyd is not very big, but he can attract attention. When baseball season rolls around Lloyd is not to be found. He has a way of making people like him and soon wins them over. Here's to Luck, Lloyd, in your future baseball career. VERNON ROBBINS Commercial Vernon is a fine fellow. He turned down a school in the city so he could graduate from Old Cam- bridge High. He is ambitious and earns his own money. Wishing you the best of luck in the business world, Vernon.

We only hope you can keep those friends, Radcliffe, because they are the best things a person can have.

MARGUERITE SCHAFFNER General Edna has a perfect disposition and is the modest violet type. She is very sweet, and we all will miss her quiet, unassuming ways. LEROY SEWARD General A boy who has thoughts and who doesn't fail to express them. Pee Wee has been saying just what he has thought ever since we have known him. MARGARET SEWARD Academic She will undoubtedly be a prize winner in all handicraft clubs, and her domestic qualities will win her fame as a housewife. MARIE SEWARD Commercial Marie's jolly manner has won her many a friend. She has a quick temper but her jolly manner neutralizes this fault. HELEN SHENTON Commercial A smile for everyone is her motto. If you need a little en- couragement, page Helen. She is always ready to help whether the task be big or small.
