RVSSELL EARL FIFE 531 XVarren Avenue Tennis Manager 131. Here is another of our' classmates whose three years of efforts have bee11 centered in commercial studies. In the past two years, Russ has proved himself a very com- petent manager-the tennis team and a brunette having been his major undertakings. Although he left us in February, Russ has not yet started upon the business career for which he prepared himself. ANNA LOUISE FISKE 37 Vilhat Cheer Avenue Honor Society: Le Cercle Francais 131. Anna does look like a dignified senior, doesn't she? But aside from being such, she is a true friend, eveready to lend a helping hand. Characterized by a spirit of whole- heartedness and perseverance, her endeavors have been crowned with success. She is the type of girl who conquers her worries with a smile. Anna is one of the best support- ers of the athletic teams and is found at every game, cheering from the side lines, MARGARET FITZMAURICE 60 Fourth Street Interclass Basketball 1113 Library Auxiliary 11-2-312 Secretary 1312 President 131. Peanut has what might be called the gift of words. This. no doubt, was acquired by reading so many books. She is an authority on authors from Shakespeare to Edgar Guest. She is one of the friendliest members of the class and she can often be seen listening to SOlllQOl1Ef'S troubles or telling her own. Economics is her pet subject and the thick books she reads about this subject would do credit to a college professor. Page twenty

I: -xf- bw 5 mit ,.,' Q., .1 DAVID GORDON EASTWOOD 36 Maple Avenue, Riverside Crimson Board 1333 Debating 133. Wait up now, Wait up! VVhere haven't We heard this expression? It's our dear old friend, Gordon, hustling from room to room before the 8:30 bell, nodding or speak- ing to everyone. His acquaintanceship exceeds that of any three people put together. Miss Porter heaved a sigh of relief when he completed his English course and both Miss Waddington and Miss Goff found that his argumenta- tive fervor can't be quenched. He found an outlet for his disputatious mind by making a success of the debating team. and by providing Miss Alden with noise While he helped to stage the school play. He intends to be a scien- tist but will probably become speaker of the House of Rep- resentatives. HOPE GERTRUDE EVANS 116 Roger Williains Avenue, Phillipsdale Library Auxiliary C213 Girl Reserves 6293 Glee Club 1373 Gift Committee f3J. Don't you love blondes? WVell, here's one made to order, and with some smile, too, you'll have to admit. Hope is extremely fond of sports, particularly basketball, and is not averse to athletes either! She's never seemed to lack partners at our socials, and so has managed to eke out a joyous existence during her three years. XVell, goodby, Hope, we'll see you again. DOROTHY RAYNER FALES -181 Bullocks Point Avenue, Riverside Honor Society: Girl Reserve Treasurer f2JC Chairman Social Committee 1293 Girl Reserve Conference Del- egate Q91 Crimson Board 133. Dorothy is the girl with the merry 'twinkle in her eyes, and the girl who loves to disagree with her teachers. Dot has been one of the pillars of the Girl Reserves and has always tried to boost that organization. She is one of our star typists and We know that the employer who gets Dot on his staff, will be very lucky, indeed. Good luck, Dot. Page nineteen

It would be quite a simple matter to overlook such a small person ' a crfpwd: but it would be an extremely difficult m ter 'Q-yylou were searching for personality rather thai size A IIIOEWBHB' combination of life, energy, and good s 0 ' Si-rf, ip. together with an excessive amount of femii ine charm and personality make Ruth the likeable person she is.

ARCHER ANTHONY GARTNER 13 Anthony Street Football 11-293 School Play 123, Aggie Club 1233 Hi-y 12-313 Senior Play 1313 Basketball 1313 President Dramatic Club 137. Sh-sh! Peace and quiet and then out of the stillness of a model study room, Archie's witty remarks and boist- erous laugh mark the beginning of a period of interrup- tion. Time never hangs heavy on our hands when Archie is anywhere about for he seems always to have interest- ing stories to tell or foolish questions to ask. Yet-isn't is surprising how such a person also manages to get on the honor roll and keep up with his class on assignments? Pax vobiscum, Archie. XX ILLARD DLXBI RY GASKELL 10 Carrie Avenue, Rumford Band 11-2-31: Glee Club 113: Aggie Club 1231 Orchestra 42-31: Crimson Board 1313 Social Committee 121. Meet one of the more socially inclined members of our class, VVillard Gaskell. Don't be fooled by his seeming- ly quiet temperament. for Willard's antics have many times enlivened what otherwise would have been dreary class-rooms. The band and orchestra have profited great- ly by VVillard's musical ability, as We know he has profit- ed by offering his time. Pax vobiscum, with you, too, VVillard. Page lwenty-one
