BETTY POTTER We won't see much of Betty Potter it that ring on her fourth finger stays put! Besides admiring her sparkler, she also indulges in volley ball, roller skating, and square dancing. Good luck and lots of happiness to you. Betty. PHYLLIS PULVER For the love ot Mike, Mabel, off your knees! Poor Phyl sure takes an awiul beating about her height. A top rate news editor and conversationalist, Mabe spent most ot her time this year in the home ec. room. GUS ROWE Gus, who has lately been Flatting all his notes, is tinally rid ot his pet hate- school. A member ot each and every organization and activity at one time or another, Augie's 'favorites are football and basketball. PHILLIP SAWYER Flip is another of those bowling maniacs. When he's not bowling them over, he's setting them up for some one else, Even though you have to do your sleep- ing in English class, it's worth it, isn't it, Phil? LILLIAN SCHWART1 Schwartzie, who never tails to have the right answer handy, is plumb datt about math. Perhaps we misunderstood, but even though she spent the evening dancing with Boycie. she did not enioy the Spring Formal! CARL SMITH Blop . . . Carl. did you throw that tootlight? Why Miss Roth, do you think ..... He's oft again, and ot course, Stitiiy always has the last word. Our giant and two letter man. no Gate-s too high tor him to easily hurdle!!! CARLTON SMITH We haven't seen Carlton lately. and he certainly is hard to overlook. It not the handsomest Senior, at least the runner-up, he takes his good tortune with great philosophical calm. JEAN SMITH Srnitty's the president ot the girls' bowling league. One ot our best, we still can't understand how she manages to stay on her feet. She claims she enioys horseback riding and tumbling: but her other hobbies, knitting and sewing, seem better adapted to her tragility. MARJORIE SUITS Mariorie. even though you may not have heard her say so. believes that there should be more plays in assembly, and that we could get along without American history very well. Mari, who works in the office and likes it very much, also finds time to go ice skating and swimming. ELIZABETH SWEETING It you need some intormation, assistance. or hard work done. just call tor Elizabeth. The most diligent ot all, she manages to include Journalism and bowling along with a membership on every committee this year. The mainstay ot the class, she deserves more credit then she'lI ever receive. I I
