■ V HELEN PRATT •’Helen” Watch out! Here comes that blue Plymouth with Helen at the wheel —Be careful—you won't make it across the street before she gets there—WHEW! That was close. But we're all in one piece, any- how, and that's all that counts. But not only does she drive a car, Helen is very active in the 4H and volleyball, too. We shouldn’t kid her like that; that isn't nice.” LEO REGAN Wimp Silence is a viitue, so they say ; my, what a virtuous soul is Wimp.” He was by far the quietest of our ranks, but even so, you knew he was there, but they say that those who are quiet usually learn more. And Leo has proved that there is truth in that statement. Classical Club and Interclass filled his spare time. JEAN REJKO 'Reggie” Jeanie’s one of those bouncy people; she can't sit still a min- ute, and is forever on the go. A busy gal was she — Art Club, cheerleading, basketball, volley- ball, art-editor of the Ly.e, chorus, and bowling. See what I mean when I said she was busy. llcainUK SEARS Ellie Twice class president, vice-nresi- dent of the Student Council, co- feature editor of the Lyre, and a bember of Journalism, Tri-Y, and chorus Ellie's scintillating person- ality and her downright ability are proof enough that she will go places. She's amazingly versatile; she not only sings, manages and writes well, but is a keyboard wiz- ard, too. OLIVE SHIPTON Ollie” Tbis is the reason, (one of why the Cozy Coiner is so j a place, Why, Ollie mal C. C. Without her, the wouldn't taste anywhere t good. As you can guess, ( the soda jerker-in-chief • class—you should see her soda or a sundae; they tast when she gets through, too. what counts. In school thou kept herself busy in Art Cl Journalism. BARBARA SIMON 'Barb” Mmmmm—did I hear a whistle? I wouldn't doubt it, seeing as how Barb’s in front of me. She's the cutie of the class, and there's no guessing about that. We're all agreed on that score. She was a cheerleader, and played volleyball and basketball on the side. 24

r NILES MINNOE Bye” On his activity sheet, on which we were to put our names, and activi- ties, Bye put down Football, 2 years, and Girls, A years. That gives you a good idea of Bye’s na- ture in one sentence. A joker, all die time, and a wit, (should there be Nit in front of that?) the rest of the time. English class got a lot of laughs because of him; but he was a good worker, and an active lad. Besides the above men- tioned activities, he took part in the Senior play, and wowed ’em. ARLENE MOORE R. D. Belle” The gal with the oomph,” and the looks and the figure to go with it, R. D. Belle has been a most in- spiring addition to the cheering ranks. Sub Debs, and the Red Cross took up her time. CHARLES MOORE Sunshine” One more couple! Swing you: gal and dosy-do around the cor- ner.” Ah yes—a guitar, a micro- phone and Sunshine, and what have you got? Why, a square dance natch! And can he call,— why, he's so good he's in demand all the time. Just watch him climb the ladder to success. FLORENCE NENTWICK Flossie” Flossie is another of our quiet ones, but quiet though she may be, she has made her presence known and felt. Girls’ sports, the Lyre staff, and Red Cross and handling the moola for the Seniors kept her pretty busy. CATHERINE NYE Kit” Kit is one of those people you like to have around; a witty remark and a cheery grin are her trade- marks. Though she’s such a warm- hearted individual, she seems to find the need of Cole” to keep her temperature up. She was not only a cheerleader, but was treas- urer of the class, and played bas- ketball on the side. PATRICIA POWERS Pat” A Powers model is the best model—just ask the driver of a certain milk truck, and you’ll get your answer. And anybody can tell you that not only is Pat pretty, but she's got the figure that goes with it. We found her a good organizer and a hard worker. Tri-Y, dance 23

CAROL SLYE Carol” They say that twins are supposed to be quite different in actions, even though they may be identical in looks. The Slyes have proved that point—Carol is the quieter of the two. But there the difference ends. Carol is a hard worker, as her work for the Triangles, the Junior play and chorus proved. PHYLLIS SLYE Phyl Where's Phyl? In the library, of course. And don't let her tell you that it's Miss Steirley's charms that accounts for her far from sel- dom appearances. We know her real reason, but we won't tell on her. But, when she wasn't in the library, she was in the Junior and Senior plays, in Triangles, on the Lyre staff and in chorus. MILDRED SNELL Milly” Watch out — here comes Milly with the ball and swish! It's an- other basket! She's chalked up more points for the girls’ teams than we could keep track of. But we would like to keep track of her after we leave school, and watch her go places. Red Heads bas- ketball team, here’s your next can- didate. ALLYN SPONABLE Al Mr. Matthews found Al a most willing projection machine opera- tor. When looking for Al. look first in the auditorium balcony. If not there, aim for the gym, where he might be engaged in an Inter- class game, or look on the gridiron during practice. Yep, he's a will- ing worker, and a handy man to have around. HERBERT STINNARD Herb Herb came to us in the midst of our high school years, but he found himself a niche, and made himself at home, and went on his way, silently, but easily. He made loads of friends, and will go re- membered as a good joe. Sings, too; who do you hear when you enter the auditorium? You’ve guessed it. DeMolay kept him busy on Monday nights. DONALD TAPP AN Tap We’ve dubbed him the indis- pensable one, for Don held down more jobs during his four years with us than is thought possible. Photographer for the Lyre Staff, business manager for the School Daze, a campaign manager, and general hard worker for the suc- cess of the Junior play are just a few of them. But besides that, he speaks French, too. Versatile? And how! 25
