'Y®»’ lB ©©ife K. MARJORIE McCRONE Let us be content to be a woman” The class of 1915 is proud of numbering this lass on its roll. Her cheerful smile and ready laugh make her a welcome addition to any gathering. She seems a shy, quiet girl in school but is quite different when out. She has great musical ability and is well liked by all who know her. SARA N. McINERNEY A studious kind of girl” Altho Sara comes from afar, still we never heard of her being late, on that account at any rate. At times she is quiet and at others she is very talkative. She is very jolly and cheerful and has an easy disposition. Besides these'big assets Sara studies very hard and some of her recitations in Vergil are truly remarkable. MADELINE A. McNEVIN “She appears a happy lass” The girl with the pearly teeth and peach-bloom complexion. She is very quiet at times but loves to have excitement also. She has many boy friends and is fond of the movies. Our reporters have been unable to uncover any knowledge about her except that she is good in all her classes and especially Physical Geography. LEO MARKTHALER “Immaculateness is absolutely necessary for me” Leo is the 1915 fashion plate in miniature. He is guaranteed to have positively the latest in everything. To imagine Leo all mussed up and dirty would be a superhuman feat of mind. He is a thoro gentleman and perfect in all matters of etiquette. Leo will pro- bably be president of Kertscher’s someday so he should “bibble”. Reception Committee

DOROTHY T. LOVELL So light of foot, so light of spirit” She is quiet and calm in bearing and speech as can readily be seen from her slow precise walking. She is fond of a good time but studies nevertheless. Her pet diversion is dancing at which she is very proficient. In fact we predict that she will be a great dancing teacher some day. Entertainment, Banquet Committee ETHEL F. LOWE She was a burning and shining light” Ethel is a mild, quiet girl and devoted student. On account of her calm temperament and desire to help others she is a welcome member of our class. She is one of our best students and even surprises the teachers with her knowledge. She will no doubt be one of the honor students which she deserves to be. We have heard that she is a man-hater but are in some doubt as to its truth. Girl’s Vindex Board A. MARSHALL LOWMAN Imposing in looks and stature” Mush” is one of the class of 1914 who decided that 1915 was really a better class. We wish here to publicly express our appreciation of this honor conferred upon us and the self-sacrifice of Mush”. Mush” is exceed- ingly husky and few can stand against him on the grid- iron. Through injuries the team was unable to have his valuable services this year. Marshall intends to enter Union next fall and battle with the higher mathe- matics of an engineering course. Commencement Invitations HELEN McCANN Modest and simple and sweet” She is very demure and sweet appearing but her close friends say that she can “cut up” when she wants to. She is noted for her sixth period lessons and from being saved heroically from drowning. She is also quite a humorist and we predict that she will some day edit the humorist column in the Ladies’ Home Journal unless—well who knows? Banquet Committee of 115

lB ©©ik LYNN A. MARTIN “His was, indeed a good influence in life while he was still among us; he had a fresh laugh; it did you good to see him; and, however sad he may have been at heart, he always bore a cheerful countenance and took fortune’s worst as it were the flowers of spring.” MARJORIE MASON “I care not for a man” Marjorie looks neither to left or to right in passing down the boy’s hall so the above quotation must be true mostly. She is never ruffled but always slow and calm. She is quite an artist and some good samples of her work can be seen in this book. She has pretty pink cheeks and long silken tresses which make her quite attractive. Marjorie also has her lessons every day and is indeed a splendid student. Year Book Board, Art Editor Girls’ Vindex FREDERICK F. MILLS “Oft seen but seldom heard” Fred is extremely reticent but has a veritable store of knowledge which he evidences on some occasions. The teachers always rely on him as a last resource. He also possesses ability as a baseball player. With these assets it can be readily seen that Fred is well equipped to start a successful career in life. EARL MOORE “He leans most to athletics” Earl is out for everything in the line of athletics in the Academy. He has been on the football team for several seasons and also the baseball team. He also plays basketball to a certain extent. He is a hard, con- sistant and tireless worker which usually repays him plentifully. He is very well liked amongst the fellows who appreciate his good qualities. Baseball Team, Football Team
