49- Graduate Photos by James Vice 0444 Qlzacfuafei RUTH PLAYFORD Ruth never fails to see the humorous side of life. A grand person to know, we will always remember her quiet manner and pleasing personality. Because of her unmistakable ability. Ruth's future probably lies in the commercial world. Maybe a certain Waterloo lad would know about this. However. we're all wishing her the Hvery best , whatever the future may hold. MURRAY POMMER Murray is a tall, handsome, young man from Linwood. He came here to master the Commercial course and gets along very well except for Shorthand.-which he no can do. He spends much of his spare time up on William Street. We know Murray will make a success of life and we wish him all the luck in the world. URMA STEVENS Orma is without a doubt the schools queen of blush . Yet, we feel sure that in her quiet, smiling way she enjoys life to the full. Her industry is admired by all. for having returned to obtain additional upper school subjects. she has burdened herself with special commercial work. Thus equipped she is bound to be a success in the field she has chosen-teaching school. BERNICE THUR Bernice came to Commercial this year as one of the '6specials setting a pace for the rest of the class in typing speed tests and in writing shorthand. Fond of dancing and skating, she could usually be seen at the school dances and skating parties or perhaps enjoying a game of badminton. Whatever Bernice may choose to be-stenographer. secretary, or typist, we are sure that she will be successful after her fine academic standing throughout high school. BRUCE RUPPEL What has Bruce got that we all like so much? Maybe it's his irresistible smile, or his gay point of view, or maybe itis even just that he doesn't know how to get serious. Anyway, he's one swell fellow who really has a way with the girls. We think he wants to get a job in the Mutual Life but we believe he'll end with an orchestra all of his own. We wouldn't be surprised, would you? JUNE WEICHEL What is so rare as June-any time of the year?- Sunshine accompanies this little blonde no less than her namesake month. She might laugh at a funeral and cry at her own wedding if she had the notion to, and no one would think it at all out of the ordinary. Her-face registers any emotion at her command-and she commands frequently. If she ever needs any alibis through her life, she can dispense with them and just turn out that melting smile, but we can only hope that June's life from this point hence will be as happy as her former existence. GRACE WOODS Grace's friends will always remember her for her angelic smile, which, l may add, is Wholly deceiving. Ever with at least one hand in mischief, Grace always seems to come out unscathed. For the past half year her leisure time during school hours has been devoted to arguing with Frank. We all join in wishing you, Grace, the best of luck in your business career.

She is Kay. whose gurgly giggle and funloving spirit we shall all remember. Her incessant chatter does not cease until Mr. Schoales asks- Are you in reverse today? Nevertheless she has a cheerful personality. and we all know she will be a success in the business world. AUDREY BURNETT Audrey will always be remembered by her classmates as a grand person and one worth knowing. Her home town is Winterbourne but she has won many friends during her course at E.H.S. We have not been told what her ambition is but maybe the Dodge will tell the tale. We wish her the best of luck in her future work and know she will succeed. VERDUN LAVERY Verdun is a very handsome young gentleman from the Commercial Department. He is full of life and as long, as he's around there's never a dull moment. But for a time he was upset and at last I found out what it was that was bothering him: he had lost his girl friend. But as I told you he is full of life so he soon had another girl. He is the type that will make a success in any field of business he may choose, so we wish him lots of luck. TERESA JORDAN Terry is a very interesting person, full of frolic and fung she lends much variety to dull classes. Teresa likes dancing and skating very much. The rest of us often wonder whether she and June when together are always talking about their school work or not. Nevertheless her winning smile and fun-loving spirit have won her many friends. We wish her all the success possible. MARGARET MARTIN Although Margaret is considered quiet by many people, she can always help a conversation along. Her favourite sports are skating and dancing and her ambition is to type seventy words a minute with only one mistake. We know she'll make a good stenographer and here's good luck to both of them. JOHN McCORMICK John is the smart-looking young fellow from the Commercial Department. Heis the boy you always notice at the top of the class when the reports come out. John is the quiet type, although when he is away from school, he's not exactly an angel. We all know that John will make good in his business career and we wish him all the luck in the world. DOROTHY MULHOLLAND Dorothy will always be remembered by her classmates as a grand person and one worth knowing. We never fail to enjoy the fun she creates in dull classes. She is fond of sports and it is not unusual to see her enjoying a skating party, a game of badminton, or a school dance. As one of the Specials , we know she will make somebody a good secretary and we are sure she will be a success in the business world.
