The f'lass President. Vigils ai Sori'oress! k OME TIME AGO, our honorable class president, Carl Hcrtcl, interested in the culminations of his ardent supporters, visited a well-known sorceress, whose predictions arc indisputable. She became interested in this remarkable class. Her revelations at first seemed astounding but a little thought renders them not only possible but most probable. “Gee, I was scared,” said Carl, as he told his story. 1 here sat this weird looking woman at the extreme end of a long, dark room. She had a sad. pale face and large, dark eyes. She looked as though she might need a man to help her and I almost asked her if I could be of any assistance. When she gave me a long, penetrating look from those deep, soulful eyes, I suddenly remembered my errand and said, ‘Well, how about the class?' She then shifted her eyes to the table and all of a sudden round crystal appeared on the table from out of nowhere. Honest! “Ah,” she murmured, “the gods are in a favorable mood. You are most fortunate. I see a—William Webb, is it? He is directing a night club. He is leading an orchestra while his wife, Ruth, (nee Hyde) is the hostess.

The crystal clears, changes, and I see in quick succession James Matilo and George Gadke. successful radio men. as well as Bernard Goodman and Malcolm MacClelland. the modern Rubinoff and Eddie Cantor of radio land. Genevieve Shasberger seems much in demand as bass drummer. “Now, I sec a lecture hall—a red-headed woman. Virginia Dangler, is going to talk on psychiatry amid the Uralouse tribes in Africa.

She was on several home room teams. 11B and 11A champion teams, took part in all gym demonstrations and was a leader on the play roof, besides participating in numerous other outside activities.

Ruth Ilyde, Genevieve Shasbcrger: Ruth Hyde and Genevieve Shasberger have always given generously of their time to accompanying the events in Open House and Gym demonstrations. Their good work has been responsible for these successes. Ho ys Edward Ceccre: Collinwood’s spectacular guard and center has a wonderful record. He started in junior high, where he played two years, then three years in senior high. This is a record which is excelled by none. This year Ed played in every game and every quarter. This fact added to his being one of the l est tacklers on the team, having made more tackles than all the rest of the team put together, won him the honor of being captain in his last year. Ed is very modest and deserves a lot of credit for playing the way he did. 26
