I I LIIE—WH1 3 3 y i jtij jl i IBVA ACKERMAN ‘ ‘ Say, has the bell rung yet?” Irva’s all right! She is always on hand and can generally be found dashing frantically upstairs in an effort to get in before Miss Hib- bard starts her morning solo on the bell. Irva originally came from Wellsburg and we are glad she decided to join us. RUTH ALLEN ‘ ‘ It’s the little things in life that count.’ ’ Yes, Ruth is little and sweet and has lovely hair. She reminds us of our favorite movie star. Music is one of her chief interests and her chosen field of work. Another chief inter- est is ---. But you can guess who. Ruth’s virtues are her abstinence from giggling and flirtation. She is altogether a very enjoyable companion. If you are blue, just walk a block with Ruth tucked under your arm. That is far enough to be sympathized with and find your- self laughing and wishing you might go blocks farther. Senior Reception Committee HELENA M. BARNES “A little work, a little play, Is my idea of life. ” Here is Helena, to whom we are positively certain that great success is coming some day. She is quiet and unpretentious with all the qualities which every practical young woman should have, but oh, only a few of her most intimate friends know what a lot of fun lies underneath such a calm and serene exterior. There is a tall young chap with literary ten- dencies who knows a lot more about Helena, but we won’t bother him with questions. We know that we like her and are glad that she is one of us. Military Party, Senior Reception, Cabaret Committees “Blue and White” Board A. CLINTON BOARDMAN “He was very wise, and he shared his wisdom with others.” Clinton, from the early days when he wore short trousers, has always been a scholar. He always studied his lessons, even when those around him were merely studying at theirs. Whenever a weighty question comes up, it is not settled until Clinton has grappled with it at least ten minutes. He is what we are pleased to call a uniformly good student. RONALD BREESE ‘ 1 As well be out of the world as out of style. ’9 Ronald has a sunny disposition and is a favorite with all who know him. He has one weakness—ladies. Without them life would be a hollow dream. Dancing is his favorite sport, summer and winter. We can not locate the center of his affections as he shows no partial- ity. In addition, he has the honor of being the first member of the Class of ’18 to put his name on the Honor Roll in the current year.
