PHILLIP BOYLSTON BASS 'P' Phil BHSS Came to Casady in the Seventh Grade and has been making an enviable name for himself ever since. Since his arrival he has continually distinguished himself academically. For the first three years Phil showed up well on the junior varsity athletic teams in football, basket- ball, and baseball. Phil's infectious personality won him the friend- ship and respect of the whole school. He has represented the Senior class in the Student Council since the Eleventh Grade. He was elected Secretary of the 'C' Club his Senior year and was also elect- ed to represent the school when the students took over the city govemment. He has done his best in all these capacities and proved himself worthy. In addition to his high scholastic and representa- tive attainments Phil has demonstrated outstanding ability in all athletics. In the Tenth Grade he be- came a member of the 'C' Club by earning his letter in baseball as second baseman. He has re- mained on the team since then and in the Eleventh and Twelfth Grade proved his additional value by doubling as pitcher. Phil eamed his letter in foot- ball in the Eleventh Grade as halfback, but Senior year in football was his most outstanding. Through his efforts as Captain the team profited immeasur- ably. Then, to add more honors, he was put on the 'Little All City' football team and won the 'Most Valuable Back' award at the football banquet. Phil has built up a great record here at school and we expect great things from him in college. BOB BOWLES 'Run' Bob Bowles entered Casady in the fall of 1947 and since then has established himself as tbe ath- lete of the class. In his first year he lettered in baseball and made both the basketball and football teams. Continuing his baseball playing until the Ninth Grade, he combined his talents with that of the track team. In his junior and Senior years, however, he retumed to his first love, baseball. After his Seventh Grade year Bob began his collection of letters in football and basketball, which range from the Eighth to the Twelfth Grade. His football duties lay entirely in the backfield until his Senior year when he was forced to be a part of the lazier group of the football team be- cause of a leg injury. To be specific, he became a guard in the line. During his Senior year he was voted President of the Letter-Man's Club, and Co-Captain of the foot- ball team. The class of '54 expects great things of Bob at college and wishes him all the luck in the world.
