OUR 19 2 9 ANNUAL 19 ELLA BAIL ESTELLE BARKALOW WILLIAM BARTLESON Ella is one of tour charming com- mercial students. tjShe doesn’t know what she inti High Kh School, w to do after leaving and these girls who don't atching, say we; especially Ella, because her weakness is Chevro- lets, and Lillies. This dignified (?) maiden is ’Stell’ Barkalow. First a deep silence, then a loud laugh, and you know the latest joke has “popped out. ‘Stell' is every- body's friend, especially when lessons seem most hopelessly dull. We count ourselves lucky to have her numbered among our graduates. Here is “Bill”, one of the few (?) good-looking boys in our class. In class meetings, he takes a great part; at least, he usually has something un- usual to say. We’ve all been left in the dark concerning Bill’s future, but vc arc sure of his having the greatest suc- cess. especially with the ladies.

18 OUR 1 9 2 9 ANNUAL ARTHUR ADAMS VIRGINIA ANDERSON “Jinny” The jolliest member of our class is, of course, our “Jinny.” No matter how hard times are. we can always get a smile from Virginia. As for her stu- dies, ask her how she likes Vergil. Do you remember her as the merry wife in one of the Christmas plays? I am sure, Virginia, that no one wishes you anything hut the best of luck. This quiet and retiring class mate of ours comes from Linwood. He goes about his work quietly and is seldom heard from. (Only when necessary, of course.) He chose the industrial course and has fought it to a finish. Let us join in wishing him all the suc- cess in the world. VIRGINIA APSLEY Her blonde hair and blue eyes make a picture for any artist, and when she smiles, she is still prettier. Virginia is our class secretary. Do you wonder why? She is very pleasant, and has acquired many friends. Virginia is an excellent commercial student, and will be a good secretary to someone.

20 OUR 1 92 9 ANNUAL Although Emma is one of the quiet, unassuming members of our class, she holds the office of president of the Dunbar Society. Emma is one of our budding poets; she has already writ- ten several poems, and we know that she will make us proud of her some day. Emma is also an ardent advocate of liberty for “Freemen.” EMMA BELL JACK BENTLEY Ever since Jack’s arrival in high school he has been a model upon whom awed freshmen have gazed. The sub- ject of their gaze has rightly won this privilge, for he has represented us in the three big sports for three long years. Jack has also appeared in our dramatic and musical productions, and undoubtedly will be heard from in these fields. EMMANUEL BERLANT Let me introduce you to the genius who joined our class when we were lOA’s. Although he has not excelled in his studies, he has made us exceed- ingly proud of him, because of his startling poetry. His ambition is to “make page seven in ‘Lights of Liter- ature.’ ”
