HELEN HAY Chicago, 1908 Helen is a star that shines with brilliance in studies, athletics, and fun She loves fun, but studies all come first. She has never cared for the “stronger sex” until this year. We guess Randy has changed her mind. She is a e-old star and is the heroine of the Senior play. “None but herself can be her parallel.” . , . .....

LESTER INGRAM, “Stone Face” Muncie, Ind„ 1911 Les is one of the members of our class who completed his work in February.

VIRGINIA HUFF Bay City, Mich. This is the little lady with the long curls. She has been rather moody since a certain young man left for California. Virginia always sees the funny side of things and is always ready with her giggle to help a joke along. She has spent much time in the Music Department. “ ' She wears the rose of youth.” Classical Club, ’20, ’21, ’22; Musical Club, ’21; Chorus, T9, ’20, ’21. TYRIE ROBBINS, “Olie” Plymouth, Ind. 1918 Plymouth lost a popular young fellow, when Olie left. As captain he did his best to lead our basketball team to victory, and but for one point would have done so. We all have our hard luck. He is fond of society, and we notice that his pictures are in demand among the young ladies. “Perseverance keeps honor bright.” Commercial Law Club; Chairman Athletic Finance Committee, ’21; B. J. E.

JOE SPRINGBERG Wausau, Wis., 1916 Joe came from Wausau, Wis., in 1916. After sampling Froebel’s of¬ fering, he came to Emerson, where we have had to listen to him ever since. Judging by the exercise it gets, we should say that Joe’s lower jaw is extraordinar ily powerful. That’s all right, Joe. Practice makes perfect. “So quiet, but oh my! What a brain!” Spanish Club; Classical Club; B. J. E. C.; B. S. E. C.; Class Basket¬ ball, ’22; “Mice and Men.” HELEN BORMAN Hobart, 1910 Helen tried for three long years to hide her talents as a musician, but at last we discovered her. She is a shy young person who likes her work, but she still has time to enjoy our fun and has made many friends at Old Emerson. We hope she will always be as successful, in her work as she has been with us. “She is so gentle and so good.” Classical Club; French Club; Auditorium League; Chorus, ’21; “Mice and Men.” INEZ CARR Buffalo, N. Y. The saying that “Still water runs deep,” applies exactly to Inez. She hasn’t given us a very good insight into her character during the time that we have known her. We know that she shines in the Sewing de¬ partment and that she has pretty dark curls. “Woman is most perfect When most womanly.” Hockey, ’22; Basketball, ’21, ’22; Auditorium League; Classical Club.! WINIFRED ILIFF North Liberty, Ind- 1918 Winifred is a hard worker and the Senior Class owes much to her! for the successes of the Senior Candy Sales. Although never conspicuous! she has been one of the mainstays of the class. She was one of our or-1 phans in the Senior Play. “The mildest manners and the gentlest heart.” French Club; Spanish Club; Auditorium League; “Mice and Men”;; Hockey, ’22. GEORGE KELSO Decatur, Ill., 1916 George is a member of the Ancient Order of Amalgamated Medics. He was noted as a point gatherer. He could find ways to get points,! that no one else ever thought of, in school a s well as in athletics. We believe that George would argue that black was white if someone said it was not. “Cream always rises to the top, so here I am.” B. J. E. C.; B. S. E. C.; Classical Club; Chemistry Club; R. 0. T. C.; Auditorium League; Football, ’21; Basketball, ’21; Track, ’20, ’21; Chorus, ’ 20 , ’ 21 .
