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

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”

BLUE—WHITE LUCILE LYON “You have deserved high commendation, and true applause. ’’ Lucile is tall, oh, so tall, and quiet. Be- sides enjoying music and good times, she has found time to study and is a whiz. Shark? Do you know she is getting through in three and a half years? One of her chief amusements is teasing her friends. But how does she find out things ? 1 ‘ Because---. ’ ’ This we must accept as an answer, for it is all we can find out from her. We wish lie:- success at Elmira College. mary McCarthy 11 Possessed of unfailing good disposition.’ ’ Mary’s favorite amusement is dancing and she is quite expert in that art. (We phophesy that she will some day in the misty future become an instructor in that interesting study.) We wonder when Mary learns her lessons, for wTe never see her studying or taking books home. (But that doesn’t mean she doesn’t learn them.) MARY A. McINERNEY “Good humor is always a success.” Mary is a very modest, demure person. Her ambition, so they say, is to become a Red Cross nurse. My, wouldn’t she make a peach! We understand that she wears an Aviation pin, so perhaps there is more than one reason why she should be interested in Red Cross. She is so dependable and steadfast that we know she will be a success in whatever she decides to do. ADRIAN POND “I should worry.” Up or down? A word to the fellow in the stunning cap and you are seated in the best seat in the house. That is Pond, whom we all know. He spends his days with us and we spend our evenings with him. He is a quiet chap with a habit of taking things easy. It is rumored that he frequently visits a certain youmg lady’s home. NATHAN II. RUBIN “A man of business.” The girls have not yet succeeded in captur- ing the heart of this young man. He is studi- ous and is always able to talk on any topic of the day. He enjoys nothing better than a good joke and is always ready with one. If you need clothes or advice on the quality of them, just go to the Woolen Mills store after school hours and ask for Mr. Rubin. He is a verv good clerk and in the future will be one of Elmira’s leading business men.
