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.’ ”

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.

OUR 19 2 9 ANNUAL 21 HARRY BONIER Despite sundry comments as to his vaccination having been accomplished with a victrola needle. Harry rates high among our extemporaneous class room debaters. Harry is ever willing to accept either side of an argument, and drive his opponent mad with his forceful arguments. Lots of luck, Harry, and may you shine brightly as one of our future legal lights. MARGARET BORRI First you hear a lot of giggling, then a bunch of curls pops out, and Mar- garet appears on the scene. Margaret is usually giggling over something, es- pecially in stenography class, and be- fore long everyone joins in. Margaret is going to be a stenogra- pher. and we envy the lucky man. PHILIP BOSTUR “Phil” What is that rumbling sound coming up the hall ? Sounds like thunder. It’s Phil, of course. Philip came to us from Dewey School. He chose the industrial course, and has turned out to be a great pattern-maker. He cooperated at the Atlantic Steel Castings Company during the past two years. Phil, the class of ’29 wishes you success.
