RANDALL LIGHTBODY, “Randy” Youngstown, Ohio, 1913 Randy is one of our popular students, and the head-musician of our band. He is a very busy man—especially if there is something to be done. Take better care of your club pins, Randy. “One day I woke up and found myself famous. B. J. E. C.; B. S. E. C.; Band; R. 0. T.

BEATRICE NESBIT Valparaiso 1915 Bicky is a synonym for “pep.” We can never forget her work in the Junior play. She believed her last year was meant for work andl she has done much for the class in selling candy and decorating for dances.

RUSSELL ST. JOHN, “Rus” „ Chicago, 1918 Russell is right there when it comes to boosting the school activ¬ ities. His timely signs are a great help to the busy student.

She has been indispensable as a guard on our basketball team and is one of those who earned her gym credit by skating. We wonder! “There’s a world of wisdom in her looks.” Classical Club; Girls’ Athletic Editor of “E”; “Mice and President, Sophomore Class; Hockey, ’20, ’21, ’22; Basketball, T9, EDNA JONES Martin’s Ferry, Ohio, 1911 Demureness is one of her virtues. Edna never says much but per¬ haps we never give her a chance. We all like her anyway and wish her luck in her future work. She is one of Miss Lull’s stand-bys and she is rushed to draw pictures in “Our Girl Graduate” books. “Those who love beauty Are gentle and honest in their temper.” Classical Club; Spanish Club; Hockey, ’22; Art Editor of “E”- Audi¬ torium League, ’21; Commercial Law Club; J.
