'Y'sar Be©lfe CATHERINE E. HYDE May your hearts desires be fulfilled” Friendship with a girl like Catherine is something greatly to be desired. She is a sincere and loyal friend, always ready to help and sympathize with anybody. She showed her ability as an actress in the French Play. Not the least of her accomplishments is her basketball ability. She is one of the best players on the team and is always noticeable by her determined attitude. Girl’s Basketball Team, French Play. EDWARD HARRY IMPSON Genius was born in this fellow’s brain.” Versatility has gained for this youth an enviable reputation together with a fine repertoire of titles and honors. He is the famous artist of this book and indeed the best E. F. A. ever had (friends of Rembrandt, Michael Angelo, Truman Fasset, Leon Smith, et al please don’t throw any bricks.) Harry is also our star comedian, undisputed all round track athlete and a football and basketball player. As Jones” in the Class Play, he made history for E. F. A. Harry has many friends among the fair sex besides. In years to come he will take place in the Hall of Fame with Edison, Roosevelt and others. Entertainment, Class Play, Track Team, Football Team, Class Book Board, Vindex Board WINIFRED JENKINS A laugh is worth a hundred groans in any market” Winifred is always laughing or smiling and her red cheeks make it all the more pleasing. Her favorite sub- ject is Physical Geography, so we hear. Her giggles, how- ever, have caused her some trouble in it. She is very pop- ular with the girls which is quite natural. Her disposi- tion will surely make her happy in the future. ANNA H. JESSEN Learned is she in language lore” Anna has awfully pretty auburn hair which does not show off of course in this picture. She also has the cutest giggle (see another page of this book for proof.) She is very studious and good in all her subjects. She takes all the available language in school. Anna is the best of company and very well liked. She is also a great supporter of E. F. A. and present at all the games. She has our best wishes as she graduates this year.

ERNEST FRANCIS HOLLENBECK There’s mischief in this fellow” Ernie used to be quite a disturber, but the Chemung County Boy’s Conference got hold of him and he is now almost tamed. Except for occasional spasms he is uniformly quiet. He sure is a hard worker which he showed us as a member of the Class Party Committee. He likes to discuss the pros and cons of various subjects with Prof. Wilson. Ernie goes to college next fall and our best wishes go with him in his studious career. Class Party Committee MINNIE L. HOLMES Good, merry and fine-tempered” Minnie has lots of life and enjoys social functions. Perhaps that is the reason she spends little of her thought on school. She has a very good imagination which has materially helped in many ways. Minnie never broke any records as a student, but usually manages to get along. It is said that she likes some- body in Syracuse but we won’t divulge any names. Her good humor and wit have made her many friends who will miss her next year. Girl’s Vindex Board EVERTS H. HOWELL This fellow was born to great things” Too much cannot be said in praise of our president. Surely fortune smiled on us when he was chosen to lead our class. No more manly or square fellow could have been picked. He has shown remarkable aptitude in everything he has undertaken, and these have in- deed been many. His thorough business ability com- bined with his splendid tact, quiet dignity, and forceful speech have made him a fine president in every way. We are indebted to Everts for every success of our Senior year and all his classmates join in wishing him a successful future. President Junior and Senior Classes CLARENCE HUNTLEY Tall, dark and a ladies’ man” We expect to hear of Clarence doing some heroic deed some day because he is certainly a fine appear- ing fellow and would make an ideal hero. He is one of the best half-milers in school and has helped to win many meets for us. He is also good in other events. As proof of his all round ability he served eats” in the lunch room with remarkable dexterity. Track Team, Picnic Committee

GLADYS E. JONES A bright, particular star” Gladys is quiet but has a marvelous capacity for learning. We don’t know what some classes would do if Gladys were not there to make recitations when all others fail. Being an honor student is a mere trifle for her. Her intense pursuit of knowledge compels her to come back next year to take a P. G. course. CLIFFORD JUNE While I live, I live not in vain” Clifford is not particularly noticeable except when he is making a good recitation in class. His only apparent object is to get thru the Academy without much fuss. By his consistent effort he has maintained an unblemished record at E. F. A. His disposition is not too serious which permits him to get some of the fun out of Senior Life. HARRY D. KANE There’s a good deal of fun behind his mild exterior” Pat” is one of those good humored fellows who is never able to get angry. He is always calm and collected and possesses the rare faculty of being able to make a recitation without doing any studying. Harry is fond of the theatrical life which perhaps accounts for his splendid work in the Class Play as Richard, the hero. We prophesy a brilliant future as an actor for him. Class Play ANNA GRACE KELLY May thy days be quiet and fair” Altho we generally see Anna very quiet, still we hear she can be very funny when started. She is a great reader and patronizer of the movies. She can tell you all about the actors and actresses of any show. There are two things Anna doesn’t like—housework and boys. She wants to be a nurse, but whatever she does she has our best wishes for success. up 11
