Dorothy. sometimes k n o w n as Dot, is one of that unusual class of people who are always ready to help and never worry whether they will receive credit or praise for helping.

BRUCE OVERMAN Varsity Football, 45 Varsity Base- ball, 45 Dramatic Club, 45 Athletic Club, 4. Bruce is a typical hail fellow, well met! He goes through the day smiling and singing, as though he hasn't a care in the world, much to the envy of his less fortunate class- mates who are bowed down with the strenuous duties of school life. While we can't predict an operatic career for Bruce, we do think that he would succeed very well in vaudeville. CECILE PATRICK Glee Club, 2. Cecile is seemingly a quiet, demure girl, but underneath the surface lurks. a large fund of Irish wit and humor. She is a very good pal, generous to a fault, and many E. C. H. S. students are proud to have her as a friend.

T. C., 4. Clara has a very sweet disposition and is liked by all who know her. E. C. H. S. hates to lose Clara, but our loss will be someone else's gain. JULIAN RAPER Associate Editor, Spotlight, 45 Associate Editor, The Loud- speaker, 45 Phi Kappa Alpha, 35 Literary Society, 15 Marshal Class, 3. Julian has been a source of envy to many of us because of his wonder- ful knowledge of Latin. It seems to be no harder to him than English. Besides that, he is on the staff of both the Spotlight and Loud- speaker, and has been untiring in his work for them. Page twenty-two
