' ' noir c(hie is poirrr ' ’ I i KATHRYN TERESA DURKIN “Kitty” “Kay” “Sweetness” “K. T.” “K. T. D.” Class Secretary, 2, 3, 4; Dramatics, 2; Junior Prom Committee; Mandolin Club; Student, 1, 2, 3, 4; A. A. Commercial Course “Kay” is the wittiest girl in our class — just consult the class ballot. Her ever-ready list of jokes and “Yiddisher” solos makes her the joy of her classmates. Any recess you chance to wander up to the Annex you are always certain to find “K. T.” sur- rounded by a group of admirers listening to her rendering “Abie Goldstein.” She is also a talented banjo artist and never misses a rehearsal of our glorious club. Words fail when one tries to express her ability as a student. When any argument arises in Bookkeeping “Sweetness” Is always there waiting to add her decisive word Her popularity among her classmates led her to be repeately elected to the much coveted position of class secretary which she has competently filled. Her ski ' ll in the terpsichorean art — don’t muff that expression — keeps her constantly in demand at all the dances where “Kitty” feels quite in her element. “K. T. D.” will take a course at B. U., after which she hopes to get her C. F. A. 27

' ' Heart to coaeeive, the umtersteniding to direct or the hnvd to execute’’ CARROLL EDWARD DAVENPORT “Davy” Junior Prom Committee; Dramatics, 1, 2, 3, 4; Student, 2, 4; Business Manager, 4; President A. A., 4; Class Book Staff. Commercial Course. “Davy” is the big man of 1921 — and in more ways than in height. If anything is going on in the class you may be sure that “Davy” has his finger in the pie — and is stirring it up, too His favorite song is “I Love the Ladies.” We think that is why he is in the Commercial Course. “Davy” is the class artist. Who hasn’t seen his drawings and printings advertising class or school social affairs? He has always stood ip well with the faculty for he is never at loss for a “Line” in answer to a question. Quite frequently he has a long distance conversation with Miss Rathbun, — you know, “the long and short of it” stuff. “Davy” is another one of our actors; he’s good too, only sometimes his tongue and legs seem to be worked by the same string. He has lots of pep and enthusiasm and is sure to leave his mark on the world — just as he has on several desks up to school. 26

}Ier voice was ever soft, gentle and low, an exeeUent thing in women ELIZABETH MARIE FLANAGAN “Beth” “Billy” “Liz” “Betty” Student Staff; Junior Prom Committee; A. A.; Mandolin Club: Class Book Staff. Commercial Course Elizabeth is one of the brilliant members of our class, which her high marks well show. She never allows any outside interest to interfere with her school work and as a result she has become one of the class sharks. On the other hand she never allows her school work to interfere with her outside amusements and at every school affair one is sure to see “Liz” tripping the light fan- tastic. Beth is a faithful member of the Mandolin Club and one al- ways feels that something is missing if she is not seen strumming on her banjo. “Billy” is among the lucky members of our class as far as po- sitions go, for she already is doing stenographic work at the “Flower Shop.” It is yet to be decided whether or not she will continue at her present position but that is not a cause of worry as we all know Betty to be made of “stuff” which always meet.s wih success. 28
