MARTHA NELL SHACKELTON Vital statistics show us that 'AStinky arrived 10 minutes later than her twin brother in the great metropolis of Rock Royal, September 21, 1927. You are likely to see her swishing down the hall in her favorite skirt and white blouse, eating fried chicken and singing 'I'his Heart of Mine . Ever since the eighth grade, she's been B1LLding her reputation asa musician in Glee Club Ml, Band fll, and following up with a music major. Mart was elected president of Fresh- man Class, participated in Dance Club ill, Press Club tll, G.A.C. till, Dramatics tll and Senior Play. Mart's ability to laugh at anything and her determination to get what she wants, will be the most important factors leading to her ultimate success in whatever field she chooses for her career. 'Laugh and the world laughs with you ISABELL LAVONNE ROOF With her entrance into the world on August 27, 1928, Izzy began hor career as Torment No, 1. At an early age, she began on her mother's friends. Because of her ability in argument, we prophecy a great future for her as a lawyer. However, Isabelle is a girl of varied talents, which is evi- dent from her long list of activities. She has played basket- ball t4l, hockey t2l, and softball t4lg has been in junior Dramatics t2l, Senior Dramatics fll and Press Club tll. Among her other likes are candy, celery, popcorn and pickles. ul donjt want to love you, is her favorite song. When it comes to clothes, this brown eyed, brown haired lass prefers slacks. Her dislikes are few: history, black- outs, and spaghetti twormsl. Experience Tea ches ALICE LEONORE STILES Alice Lenore Stiles happened in Sanford, N. Y., on November 25, 1925. Although only 5'3 short, Sally is neither small in accomplishments nor aims. Majoring in homemaking, she doesn't intend to make that her career, for a while, anyway. Beauty Clilture School will claim this blue-eyed, brown-haired lass after graduation. Snobbish people had better keep away because they, along with study- ing, squash andeating tof all thingsl, are her pet dislikes. Spaghetti, oysters, and the Senior Class top her list of likes. Glee Club t4l, and Dramatics Club till, along with dancing, traveling and playing basketball, have claimed most of Sally's spare time. ' Silence is golden SEYMOUR TUNIS SHACKELTON 'Buppy, who entered his Iamily's sphere on Septem- ber 21, 1927, is the blonde, blue-eyed Sinatra tin height and weight as well as voicel ofthe Class of '45. Shop, singing, girls, plaid shirts, his truck. making model air- planes, tinkering any and all machinery, being at home, sleep, dancing, and eating ice cream are his hobbies-- snow and homework are the only aversions in an otherwise aversion-less Personality. Bup can always be heard air- ing his lungs and invariably doing it with Delores or 'My Dreams are Getting Better All the Time, Naturally he joined Glee Club till and managed to stop singing long enough to add Dramatics t2l to his activities. After gradu- ation Bup plans to join the Navy as an aircrewman and perhaps promote himself to the position of Captain's Crooner. Each bird loves to hear himself sing. HILDA FAE STORRER Grem1in was born, 'cause her brother wanted a sister, on November 15, 1927, at Cleaner, N. Y. She shows a passion for dancing, music tany kindl, humor, her brother's navy, her sister-in-law's cooking, braham crack- er pie, and sweaters and skirts. However, she dislikes snobbish people, superior people, cold food, milk, and get- ting up in the morning. Since entering Deposit's portals five years ago, Hilda has taken a commercial course and has included Glee Club t4l, Press Club t2l, Dancing Club 121, intra-mural basketball 143, and Cheerleading til to fill her leisure moments, As for the future, Gremlin is un- decided---beautician, secretary, or just listening to an orchestration of '4R.hapsody in Blue .

LILLIAN ANGLE MOORE Since Lil is so very quiet you never know she's around until you suddenly find that she has been quietly furthering your causel She was born january 15, 1927 way out in Rushville, Illinois, but soon migrated to D. C. S. and has been with us for six years. During these years, she has taken part in Knitting Club and basketball intra- murals. She likes spaghetti, square dancing, the back row in the theater, cooking and sewing, and one ex-soldier. In fact, she likes him so much she has taken over the job of being Mrs, Moore. She is well equipped for that Job be- cause she has majored in home economics and loves to do this kind of work.

Her many likes including Bing Crosby, walking in the rain, roller skating, tall people, Rusty 1her dogl, and music, make up for her few dislikes--dancing, visiting the dentist, homework and people who won't act their age. Because of her swell personality and understanding, we heartily ap- prove nt janet's ambition to become a nurse and wish her much success. To be or not to be, that is the question.
