I 1 LTJE—WI I] 1 c ISABEL JUDSON “I’m quite as big for me, ’ ’ she said “As you are big for you.” Have you ever eaten any of Isabel’s re- nowned cookery? A few of us fortunate ones have. Often times we’ve asked her the reason for her industry and she has always answered, “Oh, I’m just practicing.” For what? Does ‘ ‘ Izzy ’ ’ intend to become a Domestic Science teacher, or is there a deeper meaning? Lately we believe that we have a clue, but we aren’t going to publish it. Time will tell. FANNY KROSHINSKY ‘1A disciple of Terpsichore. ’ ’ If there is one thing Fanny likes to do more than anything else, it’s to dance. We understand that she excells in that are. Also she is one of those fortunate beings who take a good picture. Don’t you think so? We do. We have it on ve v good authority that a certain young man around here lias made a very good impression upon her. Ain’t that excitin’? We thought wTe’d get your curiosity all aroused. ANNA MAY LANDE “Love me, love my dog-----” Oh, the charms of the much vaunted Eppie! Yes, that’s his name. Isn’t it sweet? But we are perfectly willing to love Eppie just for the sake of loving Anna May. She is already a famous actress, and the star of the third French class. (Don’t thvow any bricks, any one.) You should hear her argue with Miss Ward, en francais, about the relative charms of looking out the window and studying. Anna May expects to go to Smith next year, and my, how we’ll miss her. Pin and Announcement Committee Student Council Class Plat HOWARD J. MURPHY “Let me alone—gott’a study.” Lively, studious and ambitious—that best describes Howard. He confidently told one of us how he drives off ca e and worry; he chews gum. We all believe him, and would envy him if he did not get into trouble so often for that reason. “Murph” can be identified with almost all school activities, besides having very cred- itable report cards. We are all proud to have him a member of our class. Senior Assembly Committee KIRKWOOD PERSONIUS “Business is business—always.” Kirk’s chief and distinguishing character- istics are his length and breadth—or rather lack of breadth. He is the official compiler of the daily absence list for room seventeen. (Not so bad, eh, Kirk?) That he has business ability has been proven beyond question by his services to the class. We predict a successful career for him. Senior Reception Committee Business Manager “The Blue and White”

I ILTJE—WHI E MARGARET JENSON “Giggle and your friends gig’gle with you.” We don’t think Margaret will ever really grow up. We aren’t sure that we want her to. Think how we would miss hearing her perpet- ual giggle and seeing her tearing through the halls. While one really might take her for a freshman, still, wre all know that she’s supposed to be a dignified Senior. HELENA J ESSEN ‘ ‘ Learning by study must be won. ’, That’s a dreadfully true statement. We know by sad experience, but Helena’s experi- ences in that line aren’t sad at all. She is one of the hopes of the class, one of our prod- igies. She wants to be a librarian, too. Would- n’t she make a nice one? And do you sup- pose she’d let us talk in the library? Helena doesn’t bother about boys—she supremely ig- nores then, in fact, but we predict that ’twill not always be so. MARIAN JOHNSON 11 What sweet delight a quiet life affords. ’ ’ Marian seems to be quite happy without much excitement, although she loves to play the piano, and dance. She is a “ peach ’ ’ when you know her, and has no crushes. She may soon be proving her worth as a nurse and we wish lie:’ the best of luck. DWIGHT MERRILL ‘1 This is the life for me. ’ ’ If you see a group of boys talking and you hear somebody say, ‘ ‘ The Oldsmobile is the only car to have,” that is “Buckeye.” His favorite sport is driving. But when he gets a puncture and has to fix it with the thermometer registering 90 in the shade, we doubt whether he still calls it his “favorite sport.” From what we know, 11 Buckeye ’ ’ has two ambitious, either to become a race driver or an electrical engineer, and whichever he takes up, we know he’ll become the leader in that line. “Blue and White” Board DONALD H. MILLER “A smile for every fellow; two for every girl.' ’ That is something the way Don’s motto would read and he lives up to it at all times, with especial emphasis on the latter part. We have yet to see the time when he gets really mad. It is not strange that everyone is his friend. He captained our class basketball team and much of the credit for its success belongs to him. He is our trusted treasurer. Class Treasurer Student Council Senior Vaudeville Entertainment Class Basketball Forum

I ILTTE—WH1 1 E MARY LIBERATORE “For she was jes’ the quiet kind, Whose natures never vary.” Mary ’s quietness is one of her foremost charms, because somehow it makes you want to know her better. During her four years in E. F. A. she has made many friends. We should like to prophesy as to her future, but she is always somewhat silent about that. One day we learned that she has a “hope chest” and ever since then we have had a suspicion that perhaps the chest has something to do with Mary’s future. FANNY LITTLE “May your heart’s desires be fulfilled.” Friendship with a girl like Fanny is a thing greatly to be desired. She is a sincere and loyal friend. Fanny is a shark for she is getting through in three and one-half years and expects to join the class of ’22 at Elmira College. We wish her all success. She is one of our first girls to enlist in the Farm Cadet Service. We are missing her and quite envying her these nice days spent somewhere besides in school. BEULAH LONGWELL “A winsome lass with virtues many.” What more can we say of Beulah, except that she is one of the ‘1 twins, ’ ’ the other one of whom, of course, you know, being Frances Sweet. To say that Beulah is one of the “twins” means that she is never lacking in “pep,” enthusiasm, or industry, and is espec- ially fond of laughing, dancing and good times in general. Beulah likes the boys a little bit, too, especially those with pretty names. HOWARD W. PIKE “I love the ladies.” Howard is a favorite with the ladies—one in particula”. He likes the spring when every- thing is “Greene.” He also is strongly at- tached to West Gray Street. If he fails to hear you, do not think lie is deaf, for he is probably thinking of his future life, when—. He surely would make a good butler. Putting all joking aside, Howard is a fellow of whom we are proud. Senior Vaudeville Entertainment Committee for Senior Vaudeville Cast Party Committee Senior Play LEO J. PINKUS “Oh, my dream face! ’’ It is a shame that Leo takes such a liking to the fair sex and cannot find a representative that pleases him. He is a potential poet—a future poet laureate. (We can tell by his mar- velous hair.) His poetry is just “killing.” He is withal a clever fellow and is upholding the standard of the Pinkus family in an able manner. Senior Vaudeville Class Play
