I gwss1s.eaf cbs ,st I if cbs RUSSELL CLAIR I-IALQUIST, Russ French Club fl, Only last year Clair came to us from Rural Valley High, and has proven such a good mixer and interesting companion that we have no fears for his future success. He has chosen a worthy calling, for as long as the earth is inhabited, people will need the assistance which he will be able to render. Even now, he knows furniture types better than many dealers, and we wish him luck in that line. WILLIAM TWEED HARPER. Bill Swimming Team OU, C Club Undoubtedly 5 .gbiypbest-liked members of our class, and 'gllfgzser ing o that osition among us. His smile accompanryzip I wird of greeting, will always be gladly accepted and long-remembered, wherever he may go. CATHERINE VERONICA HART, Kay Another Kay , although this time from a differ- ent angle. Catherine is of the same type, a pleasant girl, a wonderful pal, and a never-to-be-forgotten friend. During her high school life she has always ranked among the first in her class, and has never been in need of that greatest of all assets, friends. CHARLOTTE CORNELIA HATCH, Inky Art Editor of Mirror UD. Dramatic Club Q31 61 UU, Joke Editor of Spokesman Q31 6: OU, French Club QU, Virgil Class f4l President of College Club. So different, and yet, so good natured and fun- loving that one ean't help but like her, Charlotte, or Inky , as her most intimate friends know her. When it comes to ability, she outranks us all. Litera- ture, oratory, dramatics, her best in any of them is far above our poor powers to write, talk or act. VINCENT HEBERT, Vin A fellow that left us at the end of the first term, at which time he found himself the proud possessor of enough credits for the coveted diploma. A quiet fellow, who has many friends among us, and who takes with him the best of wishes from all of them. IRENE MARIE HELD. Reny Irene is one of our studious little misses who has won many friends with her sweet and pleasing dis- position. May you be as successful in your business career, Irene, as you have been in your school career. W1

A tall, handsome she'ik , whom any girl around the school could t ll you, is Mac. His greatest ac- complishment cdiis through his track ability, and his succe 'irif that line has been the cause of the handle ' which many of us know him1 Mac, the lalileii. lOne of his chief delights is found in givi 'complicated explanation of something which none-5 his hearers ever know anything about. ELEANOR AUSTIN GILLESPIE, Fudge Girls' Clee Club 131 Gr 141, Treasurer of Girls' Glee Club 141, French Club 141, College Club. During the four years that she has been with us, Eleanor has sung her way into our hearts. She is cheery and helpful to us in all of our activities, and we shall always remember her as a very dear friend. CARL BERTIL CUSTAVSON. Swede Glee Club 1l1 Bertil, commonly called Swede by most of his school chums, is one of Central's most loyal support- ers. He is liked by everyone because of his serious- ness and big-heartedness. We know that he will gather a wealth of friends about him, where ever y go: his Eefdy smi nd winning ways. LEMPI MARY A, Lem Lempi holds the championship for being the most composed girl in our class. Even Miss C's best bits of satire have failed to pierce her coat of tranquility. Although she has not made herself con- spicuous in class affairs, we believe that everyone has at some time, noticed and admired her. MARK JEROME HAGGERTY, Aggy Class Basketball 131 6: 141, Central Seconds 141, Trig. Class Only a slightly-built young man, but an athlete, never-the-less. He has done much to make basket- ball games among the classes, a success. His court work with the Reserves has given him a place in our memories which will not soon be erased, KATHRYN LOUISE HAKES, Kay Mirror Editor 1l1, Spokesman 131, Editor of Spokes- man 141, Council 131 6: 141, Secretary of Council 141, Class Treasurer 131, French Club, College Club, Commencement Speaker. Kathryn, humorous, fun-loving, yet free from the foolish extravagances which mark our modern butter flies . She has shown a firm belief in making the world a better place in which to live, by her loyalty and enthusiasm in all our school enterprises. Per- haps her chief virtue is sincerity, which she has manifested in work as a student, and in the multitude of friendships she has made. 24

gif -Fil cbs 3 5 AGNES MARIE HERWIG. Ag Behold the sharkiest of our Latin sharksl Agnes can read VirgiI's works as if they were in English. But Latin isn't the only subject in which she is a wizard. Would that a few more of us had such marks as hers. The greatest example of her ambition is that she has made high school in three years. LYNETTE ELIZABETH HOFFMAN, Lottie Dramatic Club Q31 61 00, French Club f4J, Debat- ing Club f4l, College Club. I had often heard people say, She has a won- derful personalityu. I was never able to compre- hend what they meant, until the day that I met sweet, smiling, brown-eyed Lettie . The revelation was complete, to say the least, and somewhat startling. SEVILLA MARY HOFFMAN, Sela Virgil Class The smile upon this young lady's face shows her character much more clearly than could we, with any number of words. We are proud to number her among the very few who have not as yet suc- cumbed to the 'bobbed-hair craze . She is a splen- did pal, a good student, and a girl that one can never forget. The many friends whom she has gathered about her during the school course, will all testify to those facts. EDGAR JAY HOGAN, Ed Council UQ, Business Manager of Mirror UD, Class President fl, 61 f4Q, Spokesman f2J, Drama- tic Club QZQ, f3j, 6: QU, Commencement Speaker. Good old Hogan, the jolly, capable pilot of the Class of '25, In large measure we owe the splendid showing our class has made, to his business ability and capable leadership. His fine scholastic record is a credit to him, and an honor to the rest of us. Everyone of his associates feels him to be a trust- worthy friend, the kind that is loyal always. .IOSEPHINE GERTRUDE HORNICK, jo Art Editor of Mirror, KID, Virgil Class f3D, French Club UU, Debating Club f4Q, College Club. Undoubtedly one of our leading newspapers will some day read: The celebrated artist, Miss jose- phine Hornick, who recently published her latest book, sang to her own accompaniment before a very enthusiastic audience. Indeed, with her talent, her determination, her natural intelligence, student abil- ity, and last but not least, her sense of humor, Central has every reason for its pride in her. ISABELLE VIRGINIA HOWELL. Gin Vice-president of Class UQ, joke Editor of Mirror CII, Basketball QZQ, Virgil Class f3,, French Club f4l, Council f4D, Orchestra Q4-bl, College Club. Here is one of '25's most popular students. She is scarcely ever serious, for who ever saw her with- out a smile on her face, or ever heard her say any- thing cross? She is an optimist, and we are sure that success will be hers, whatever she may take up. 26
