We don ' t blame you, Betty; we ' re just jealous because we haven ' t one to take care of. WILLIAM SPAHR Bill was usually standing on his head try- ing to get odd snap shots for the Ravelings. Ex- cellent finished products, eh what? He usually succeeded in getting out of almost any class he wished. ROBERT STALTER We heard that Bob did good work in the CCC camp last summer; and from his work in school, we have no doubt about it. He is also a whiz on roller skates. CLARENCE STAPLETON Stape was still another football and basket- ball addict. We all thrilled to see him sink those baskets, and he certainly will be missed next year. Won ' t he, Little Stape ? HELEN STEELE Helen took an active interest in her school work and even seemed to enjoy it at times. We hope she is as successful in the future as she has been thus far. MARY STEELE When it came to beating a drum. Mary really knew how. She played in the band throughout her high school years and we ap- preciated those booms . THOMAS SUMMERS Tommy was a swell scout. Whenever there was any work to be done, he was right on the job even though he was slightly bashful. LUCY ANN TERRELL Lucy Ann came to us from Lancaster School in Huntington County. We are very glad to wel- come her as a graduate of our class; and we hope you liked our school, Lucy. JACK TRICKER Jack , as well as taking part in the senior play, acted as one of our yell leaders this year. We are all yelling for his future success with a zis, boom, bah! ANNA JANE TYNDALL Anna Jane could always be found at all the football, baseball, and basketball games. Why? She is talented in music even though she plans to be a nurse. MARY WEBER Mary hopes to be a public speaker after she graduates this year, and she had a lot of fun practicing on the students of D. H. S. On to bigger and better speeches, Mary. ROBERT WOODHALL Killer had a terrible time convincing Mr. Anderson that he really could use only three fingers on one hand in typing. Even with this handicap, he seemed to get along O. K. ETHEL WORTHMAN We ' ll have to hand it to Ethel. She really borrowed in a swell way in our senior class play. Ethel thought enough of our school to come In every morning from Preble. MARY WORTHMAN Mary was another amI)itious person who came from Preble, and we aie glad that she could see fit to help us out here in Decatur. Although she was rather quiet, she did what she was sup- posed to do. KATHRYN YAGER Kay came to us from the school in South Bend, and the minute she came she seemed to fit right in with the rest of us. She demonstrat- ed her ability and talents when she played one of the leading parts in the sen ior class play. HUBERT ZERKEL Zeke was one of our heroes when it came to being high point man in basketball. Did you know that he was right half-back on our football team and was president of the Commercial Club, too? Nineteen
