Millicent Purcell Never, and we mean never, get into an argument with Mitzie, the senior class parrakeet. A blue streak talker, she could put Danny Kaye to shame. When Mitzie starts a report in class, we drop our pencils in amazement and try in vain to catch every third word. The girls will long remember her hilarious pajama parties and the food that accompanied them. Her peppy renditions of popular tunes have brightened many a noon hour. Mitzie went to Florida for part of our senior year, but when she returned to us in February, she fitted back into her place as if she had never left. ]unioir A.A.; Senior A. A.; Chorus. William Shepard Who ' s the boy with that collection of bright ties and even brighter socks ? Why, Shep, of course. And what senior drives up to school in Willie ' s Willys, the famous green car? Again we turn to Bill. An honor roll student since the seventh grade, Bill constantly amazes us with his ability to think a problem through clearly and logically, and his neatness is exceptional. As shown by his collection of M ' s, Bill is a star guard on the basketball quintet, a fast, sure football end, and a quick catcher on the baseball nine. As we look back on our years at C.H.S., we realize how essential Bill has been to the Class of ' 46.

Alan Konzelman Why do most of the seniors wish that Alan would use a megaphone? The answer is almost self-evident. It seems that that would be the only way in which all of the seniors could hear all of the hilarious side- remarks that issue from this master-mind. And his nibs won ' t repeat himself, so if you miss one, you ' re out of luck. But don ' t get the idea that this blond good-looking senior is a quiet, mousey sort of charac- ter, far from it. Nicknamed Spark by one of his long-suffering profs, Alan certainly helps to keep the class fired up. Alan hopes to attend the Merchant Marine Academy at Kingspoint, L. I., after he grad- uates from C.H.S. Football. Henry Koons If Ivan Dimitri is put out of the photographic lime- light within a few years, we wouldn ' t be at all sur- prised to find that Henry stole the show. Many a time we have been reminded of a pleasant class experi- ence by seeing a picture Hank had snapped at just the right moment. Besides being an ace photographer, Henry also holds his own in studies. He is another one of those Dodger fans, and has traveled to Brook- lyn to see them Moider da bums. Henry is the tallest boy in the class and also one of the best na- tured, as is proved by the way he takes what comes with good humor and no questions asked.

Peter Sloan Ever since seventh grade, Pete has never ceased to amuse us with his witty remarks. A letterman for two years, Pete is noted for basketball and baseball. Shooting himself up from the jayvees, Pete ' s now a varsity top scorer. He has helped to win many a game by his tricky dribbling and shooting. Another one of his traits is talking, and whenever there is a discus- sion in the class, you may be sure that Senator Sloan is in the middle of it fighting for his prin- ciples. Pete ' s popularity was shown when he was elected Student Council president for the first semes- ter. Pete is very active socially and is an asset to any party.

Sally Stockton Sally entered our class in our junior year, but it did not take her long to fit in. Her repertoire of contagious laughs is seemingly unending, so we especially like to have her around when boredom threatens. Sally seems to dash off weekly English papers effortlessly (though she denies this), and since she joined us, no honor roll has been complete without her name. If you need some good advice, Sally ' s the one you should ask, and she ' s one of those rare, wonderful persons who offers it only when asked. Sally ' s planning to be a Spanish interpreter in South America; we ' re cer- tainly jealous of the South Americans. Chora:; Class Secretary.
