 55HH52 •CANADESAGAN • BESSIE GRAVES Bess is liked by lots of girls, She’s liked by lots of boys; She simply stars in Basket Ball And raises stacks of noise.” How anyone can be vice-president of a class, play basket ball, entertain callers, and get the re- ports Bessie does, is way beyond our conception. Everyone likes her and she can always find time to help you out in lessons. Outside of school—well, very reluctantly, we decide not to tell on you, Bessie. Girl’s Basketball Vice-President Class WILLIAM MANGAN A quiet lad, yet mighty in his wrath.” Bill ” is a popular young fellow who plays football, and he has won many admirers among the fair sex; still, he doesn’t reciprocate the admi- ration. He is an ardent anti-feminist and will take any amount of trouble to avoid meeting one of those fussy, embarrassing creatures. He is active in all school activities, and is always observed be- cause of his conspicuous calmness. Bill is husky, whole-souled, and generous, and his host of friends will never forget him. Football LEON NELSON An ordinary person, yet Destiny holds for him we know not what.” We call him Deak” for short, not that this name fits him, for we know better, but someone gave it to him, and he still has it. When he isn’t playing football, basketball, or working at track, he is out with the girls. Look out girls, he is a regular heart-breaker! Strange to say he is learn- ing to be a mail-man. Keep it up, Deak, success awaits you. Basketball Football Track Team Class Play LILLIAN McCABE She plays basketball! ” And plays it well, too. Lillian captained the girl’s basketball team through the season just past. And an unusually successful one it was, too,and by her own efforts many apparent defeats were turned into victory. One would not believe it, but Lillian is studious. She is noted for her laugh, which can- not be equaled. Her motto is, If you cannot be good, be careful,” and we believe she lives up to it.

 52HH52 CANADESAGAN INEZ DOUGLASS “Laugh and the world laughs with you” This must be Inez’ motto, for she laughs all day long. She is as funny as Aristophanes and extends her funny remarks even to Vergil, where she studi- ously “soaked the limbs of Aneas’ men in brine.” Her favorite expression is “Gosh!” but she denies all knowledge of the word. She claims that her favorite pastime is housework, and so we imagine that her cheery nature brightens her home, even as it brightens the faces of her friends. HARRY L. KAHLER “Faithful to duty where’er it calls” Harry seems to be one of the few people in this world that enjoy working. He never told us he did but he never seems to grumble about it very much and that is more than can be said of us. Harry is a good dancer, but his favorite occupation seems to be the enjoyable one of courting a certain Big Flats girl who is in our midst. We can’t tell you, abso- lutely, who she is, for that might not be fair to either, but if you are in the least curious, just look around, and you cannot fail to find out who is who. Forum IRENE T. FIELD “Her faith is built on argument alone” Irene has lots of school spirit and when it comes to basket ball she is right in her element. Some people think she is a grind, but, although we admit that she studies harder than most of us, we still say she is always ready for a good time. She is a fine musician as well as a good cook, and intends to take Domestic Science at Elmira College. It is also known that she has quite a liking for a certain Post Graduate. Girls Basketball “A man after his own heart” “Jud” must not be thought of, just because he holds his head above our reach, as a haughty fellow, for if you know him, the least you can say is that he is a very agreeable fellow. He lent his talent to the Senior Play, so we know why it was a success. (Oh yes!) At any rate, since we couldn’t find any hint of scandal in his life, we had to say something. We wish you the best of luck, Jud. Senior Play, Forum, Student Council JUDSON HOOVER

 55HH53 • CANADESAGAN KARL HAVENS A long and lanky, yet graceful boy.” Karl is one of those genial fellows who are slow to anger but—well you know the rest. He is liked exceedingly well by all who know him, which testifies to the fact that he IS genial. About the girls, now—well, it is impossible to tell whether he loves them individually or collectively. However that may be, he certainly is fond of them. He likes to dance occasionally, but for the most part, he is content to get his recreation by driving a lit- tle Ford around town. His studies—we almost forgot ourselves. You see, we weren't to mention anything about them. E. F. A. Entertainment Senior Reception Committee LOUISE BARNHART Her cheeks are like the roses, Her eyes like two twin stars.” Louise is one of the sweetest girls in our class, and one of the most faithful members of this Cana- desagan Board. (There has been some comment as to why she was so faithful, but we will leave that to be discussed by others.) However, her work herein is a great credit to her. Louise ex- pects to teach in the fall, and we all hope that she will be satisfied with her chosen profession. CANADESAGAN BOARD E. F. A. ENTERTAINMENT Secretary Student Council MILDRED DINGLER I just can’t make my eyes behave! ” O! those eyes! What would one not do for a smile from Mildred ? She is always looking happy and was never known to frown. (No?) It has been rumored around that Mildred believes in votes for women, but we have no proof of this. They say that she is going to be an old maid, but we know better. The Class of T6 will long remember you, Mildred. CANADESAGAN BOARD Lyceum Senior Reception Committee paul mckinney An all-around man is ‘Mac.’” Yes, this is Mac,” who always has a good word for everyone. And did you ever see anyone get sore” at Mac” ? O, mercy no! It would be useless to try. Just to look at him you would know he is an athletic star, and consequently he is a favorite with the fair sex. Football and basket- ball are the happy prologues to the swelling acts, and many are the hearts and games he has won by his playing, not only at home but out of town as well. And Mac has many friends among the fellows who recognize his sterling qualities. Basketball Football Canadesagan Board Senior Picnic Committee
