THE BLUE AND STEEL 27 ETHEL PEARL POWELL Billie “You would!” Science Club (2, 3, 4) ; Home Economics Club (4); Sailor Maids (3). “Sober, steadfast and demure” is Ethel in school, but out of school quite a different tale is told, for she is happy, peppy and full of fun. My, how we are deceived by these quiet, conscientious students! She is also the proud possessor of a “Chevy” and be- cause of her generosity to help people in dis- tress became known as the school ambulance driver. Ethel may be small and dainty, but she surely is determined and, therefore, we are sure she will make a great success in a school of higher learning as she has done in C. H. S. 13est wishes go with you from the Class of '28. Ethel, sweet and gentle little lass, Who's ever loyal to the last.” ELIZABETH KATHRYN QUIGG Dirnps,” Quiggy” “You would be like that!” The Patsy (4); Gypsy Rover (1); The Miniature Lady (2) ; Sailor Maids (3) ; The Bells of Beaujolais (4) ; Honor Bright (3) ; Glee Club (1, 2); Commercial Club (2, 3, 4) ; Blue and Gold Staff (4). “Quiggie,” the actress! This she has proven by her dramatic ability in the plays presented around the High School, in which she was the leading lady. Her acting is superb! To help her to gain this reputation she has adorable dimples, is very attractive, and has a wonderful disposition. She has the cutest giggle—it travels up and down the scale and never misses a note. Every morning “Petty” comes in the room entirely absorbed in reading a letter. No one need ask where it is from. We all know what the post mark is. “Betty” says she is going to be a stenographer, but from the aforesaid —we have our doubts. We wish you great success in whatever you take up. We are wondering whether she will decide on the college man or on the gentleman in the Senior Class? “. sweet smile for all, a greeting glad, An amiable, jolly way she had.” HELEN ELIZABETH RIGHTER Helen” “Got your English finished ?” Domestic Science Club (4) ; Commercial Cub (3, 4). Helen is very quiet and very seldom we hear from her. She doesn’t care for lessons and would rather be a housekeeper. When it is baking, doing dishes, sewing and th- numerous chores of the house, Helen is ight at home. She never talks very mirh in school, but when she does it usually amounts to something. We are sure that vou will succeed. Helen, because not many girls now- adavs are very good housekeepers. 'I he best of luck to vou. “Still waters run deep. EMMA AARON RUTH Babe” “Huh! What’d you say?” Gypsy Rover (1); Miniature Lady (2); Sailor Maids (3) ; Bells of Beaujolais (4) ; Honor Bright (3); The Patsy (4); Commer- cial Club (2, 3, 4) ; Home Economics (4) ; Glee Club (2, 3) ; Blue and Gold Staff (4) ; Corresponding Secretary of Class (3). Whenever you hear a lot of chatter, or noise, or a funny little cackle, all you have to say is, that's “Babe” Ruth. This lady in question drives a “Chevy” sedan. And can she go? Well, she sures makes her “Pride and Joy” step. We do not know whether or not the name “Babe” Ruth has anything to do with her keen interest in sports, but if not, perhaps, there is someone who is very attractive on the teams whom “Babe” is very much interested in. What about it, “Babe” is it the sport itself or the boy athlete? But now, when it comes to girls’ athletics; she has served the girls’ basketball team very faithfully as scorekeper and was a great in- centive to the team. We are sure “Babe,” you have no need to worry about the future, because with your knowledge you gained in school—because she is quite a student in the Commercial Course—that laugh, and your pleasant disposition, you can’t help being a successful stenographer. Here’s to you, “Babe”—best of luck and wishes from the Class of 1928. “In laughter and in jest, She surpasses the best.” GERTRUDE ELIZABETH YOST Betty,” Yostie,” Kid Yost” “For heaven’s sake!” Gypsy Rover (1); Miniature Lady (2); Sailor Maids (3); Bells of Beaujolais (4); Honor Bright (3); Commercial Club (2, 3, 4) ; Home Economics Club (4) ; Basketball (1, 2, 3, 4, Captain) ; Secretary of Class (3) ; Glee Club (2, 3); Blue and Gold Staff (4). “Betty” is our girl athlete and an all- round, good sport. She is bright and viva- cious and quite a chatter-box. “Betty” just loves to argue and usually comes through victorious. She has always seemed inter- ested in the higher institutions of learning. We wonder if she is interested in the studies they offer or a promising young lawyer who is defending the Crimson and White. An everyday happening is to see “Betty” with a large envelope in her hands which we know is a letter from none other than—“that prom- ising young lawyer.” “Betty is a very good- natured girl and has a large number of friends. “Betty,” from all indications, is going to be a stenographer, but?????! what- ever she does we all wish her lots of luck and success. Active always; talking ever; Witty and merry; decidedly clever.
