JOSEPHINE DePASQUALIi Being particular when choosing clothes to Fit her personality. this girl always has a strikingly neat appearance. llc-cause she is helpful and never is ii wall flowcr , Alo has innutnerahle friends with whom she gets along famously. Not one to slliflfi duties she is. in fact. efficient and this same effi- ciency w'ill avail her no little upon gradua- lion. DOROTHY DUR PHY The dark. pretty girl with the soft voice and cheery smile is Dorothy llurphy. lit'- ing of an optimistic aufl consiils-rate vlisf position, Dot always does her duty and perhaps just a little hit more with that saint- cheery smile. Her talents are many. point- ing either towards music or the intellectual field. EUGENE ERICSSON XYith interest in l-asehall, tiene is try- ing his hest to lxeconie a regular playei with the varsity.

As tnost hoys ilo. he works just haril enough in school to get hy. GLADYS FARGO Here is a girl who is no longer arailahle, for some lucky guy has hcaten all others to the draw' liy securing zi' hetrothal with her. It is not hard to iindei'stantl his in- terest in her either' hecause ot' her appear- ance, frienrlliness, anvl willingness to work, She intends to graduate. however. licforn- the big day.

Nina is quite a moflel senior. She takes Ilome lic' onomics and we expect to see her in a homi- ot' her own shortly after graduation. IIANIETTE DONALDSON This attractixe hlontle with the hlue eyes. takes teasing altout her cute flimple like the goofl sport she is. lliking, skating and hicycling are among her many interests. he- causc of her enjoyment of the great out-of- tloors. Une ca'n almost always see her with ont of the lillington girls, for they seem to he hosoni clnnns. MILTON I-QCCLIZS .Xn avi-rage fi-llow with a lictter-tl1:m-aver- age alvility for track attrl liasehall. is Hilton licclcs. This accounts for the fact that he loves tht- mvntionerl sports anil tries just haril enough to get hy in school suhjects. llc is another new student from Ellington. who is already well-liked hy all hecause of his gootl nature. SHIRLIZY ERICSSON Shirley Ifricsson is fond of sports, partic- ularly sottlia-ll and liaskethall. He works part tinie on a farni aurl expects to he one of the fellows who hacks up the guys at the front with fooll. IIe's a good humored lad anil loves a good prank . . . too welll FRANK FONTI 'lhis short. lieavy-set fellow' is a natural :itlilt-te. so has always participated in sports. fllany teams have regarded him as a value :ilile asset worthy of praise hoth from teammates :intl opponents. Baldy has no hatl hahits. although heconiing an honor student 4loesu't particularly interest him. Ti-acliers really enjoy Frank in spite of the trouhle tnever serious? they have with him. .Ks he has heen an asset to athletic teams, so will he he an asset to the armed service. DONALD FRANK llon's capacities ate many. as proven hy his aliility Io entertain the Ceramics class. which is contposetl entirely of girls. except for himself, llis entertaining abilities rlon't stop here for as Fatty he was the kids' hcro in the Senior play. llon is also one ot' the clit-fs of Falconer High, so lucky is the girl who catches hint. industrious and willing! lion will stick to his chosen path in later life. MARGARET GAETA llere is a girl who is not content to just look on at a softhall or haskethall game. She wants to participate and the side which chooses her alwa'ys considers her a valuahle asset. Once one gets to know' this girl worth knowing. he values hcr frieutlship. Although as atnluitious as any, Cate does not neglect her hunger for entertainment and good clean fun, so she attends the mov- ics anil goes to dances. IfDW'IN GILBERT Although Ed loves a good time at a square dance. he works a great share of the time on a farm. Gih makes friends easier and faster than most people because of his ahility to make other people feel at ease w hen in his presence. Lefty, as the name implies. is a southpaw. and when he pitches a hast-hall game. the opposing team strangely doesn't do very w'ell. Xve all like Gilt and we know' he'll get along.

She enjoys sports of all types. httt she is also an excellent homemaker. pre- ferring to cook or sew rather than to read. JEAN HANSON In the senior play this non-resident girl showed her Swedish descent. for it was she who so expertly handled the role of the maid who had not as yet learned the Enq- lish language perfectly. She gets excellent grades in her classes which she takes as preparation for a career as zr stenographer. Vl'e know that she will encounter no diffi- culty in securing and retaining a position as some-hody's sten0g. JULIENNE HOLMES llecause she is patient. helpful hright and hecause she makes friends and keeps them easily, this girl should make good in her chosen professiouf-nursing. liecause she is modest ahout her many accomplishments. she doesn't mind the fact that her writing is not as legihle as it should he.

She's fond oi popular music, too. ller fu- ture is quite undecided. as yet, hut, comes the end of the war. and the ltoys are hack home again. fate won't need to takca hand! MARY l.AW'RliNClf To anger hllsi Lawrence is practically im- possilile lieca-use of her cheery disposition and dignified sophistication. Always smil- ing. she pleases all who meet her. ller in- terests are many. ranging from swinnning or riding a hicycle to singing or playing a fiddle. flood marks in her suhjects and her abilities and interests will surely enable her to attain what she pursues. .ws A. '90 2 'OS 'br STANLEY GROVES Stan's ideas seem endless. as do his abil- ities, His walks from Jamestown in the wee hours of the morning must serve :rs good training. for Stan took First place in the ltllt-yard dash at the l94Z Southwestern t'onfercnce. The sarcastic. nonchalant Theo Arhuckle was well characterized hy Stan in the Senior play. for Stan himself possesses these lfltlts, Ile has heen inducted into the Air t'orps and plans to enter mtive service after graduation.
