HENRY, MARY ELLEN Glee Club, 4— “M Club, 2, 3, 4— Social Com. 4— College Club, 3. “Smile girls, that’s the style.” Mary Ellen goes with her smile, which is almost everywhere. It’s a pleasure to be in such sunny company. Try it and see. She should be called, “We” as a nickname for “my smile and I.” HOWE, LLEWELLYN S. Mam’zellc Tups, 2— Capt. Crossboties,— Glee Club, 1, 2 Class Play, 4— Student Council, 3, 4— Ring Com. 4. Here is one of the cheerful members of our class. It has to be a very gloomy day that finds “Doc” without a cheerful grin. No matter how deep the trouble may be, he will always bob up smiling. The industrial world has already claimed our little genius and he’s bound to make good. We expect a lot of you, Doc. KLUND, ALICE Tennis 2, 3, 4— Soccer, 3— School News, 3-— Sunrise, 4—Glee Club, 4 —College Club, 1, 2, 3, 4— Peg O’ My Heart, 4 Class Officer, 4— Announcement Com. 4. “Bugs” is a friend worth having. She’s cheerful, thoughtful and sincere. Everyone who knows her, enjoys her bits of dry wit and humor. She intends to enter Ohio Wesleyan this fall. Here’s wishing her great success. LEVICK, ETHEL SHIRLEY Out O' The Air, 4— Hum’s Oratorical Contest, 3— Announcement Com. 4— Ring Com. 4— Class Speaker, 4. Ethel is the valedictorian of the February class. She has proved her value by her class work and high grades. Aside from studying, she is jolly and has a charming personality. All who know her, love her and desire to keep her as a close friend. Ethel is going away to school and we wish her all success. LILLARD, DORA Glee Club, 4— “M” Club, 3, 4— Class Play, 4— Class Day Com. 4. Diminutive, sweet, with the proverbial dash of pepper for snap, and a charming manner, which was shown in the “leading lady” of “Peg O’ My Heart,” is Dora. Her host of friends wish her great success. We wonder if that includes “B. R.” 19

ANDERSON, ALICE ELVIRA “AT” Club 2, 3, 4 The most outstanding thing about Alice is her wonderful congenial and interesting personality. She has not told us her plans for the future. BOWES, DOROTHY College Club, 4—Basketball, 2—“M” Club, 4—Banquet Com., 4 Did you ever notice Dorothy’s cherry lips, blue eyes and flaxen hair? They’re worth looking at—and after that, get to know her,—You won’t regret it, Good luck, Dorothy. DOYLE, WILLIAM EDWIN Orchestra 3, 4—Mam’zelle Taps Com. 2. Edwin, because of his quietness, is unknown to some, although he has numerous friends. Ed isn’t the kind of a boy to make a big splurge, but what he does is done with an accuracy and finish that is astonishing. Although he has not taken part in athletics he has made quite a name for himself with his many fine qualities of manhood. East will miss you, Eddie. FICKENWORTH, MABEL “A ” Club 2, 3, 4— Glee Club, 3, 4— Banquet Com. 4. Mabel’s blonde hair and laughing eyes give an impression of eternal sunshine. We shall miss her cheerful smile and pep. But Mabel will make a success of everything she undertakes. The business world claims her. GIBB, MARIE ELLEN College Club, 2, 3, 4— Peg O’ Mg Heart 4— Class Pag Com. 4 Dramatic Club, 1, 2— Announcement Com. 4. Have you ever noticed how very calmly Marie takes life? However, there is a volcano inside of her, which it is dangerous to stir up. She has been known to visit frequently in Grove City, but says she is going in training at Harnot this fall. 18
