ELIZABETH HALL Frame your mind to mirth and merriment. Betty is one of the happiest girls in the class. She attends most of tlie dances and is tlierefore quite a dancer. She is very clever in the art of passing notes and talking during recitations. She has been known to study, but only on rare occasions. Noted for that wave. WALTER DA ' 1D HANNON Children should be seen, twi heard. Walter seems to abide by the above quota- tion, for little is heard of him, except when he has something to say that is worth while listening to. He is somewhat bashful; and as no fair maiden has yet won his heart, we fear he is doomed for the life of an Old Bach.” He generally has his lessons (except that Solid Geom.) but no human being can digest that. FRANCES MARIE HASSETT Quiet she was, forsoath, not vain. If friends be credit, she has much gam. Although Frances hasn ' t much to say around school that doesn’t mean she is quiet outside. From the things one hears, she is far from it. How about that little blonde fellow from Long Island, Frances? Although most of Frances ' evenings are occupied, she manages to get A ' s and B ' s, Noted for the above quotation. 24 MARY AC.NES HASTIE Come and trip it as you go On the light fantastic toe. When jt comes to dancing, May is right there. According to the family records, Mary at the age of five, was known to hop, skip and jump ail over the South Side, so we surmise that dancing comes natural. This does not prevent her from being the favorite in Miss Pepin’s shorthand class?? However, as we understand she has quite a pull there. Mary is one of those lucky ones who grinds a week and then takes a vacation for a week. JAMES HENDERSON . ' I strawberry blonde is he. Jim is a great boy for studying. He man- ages to get A’s and B’s. We have noticed him lately in his knee pants playing the bag- pipes. If lost, he can be located by his miss- ing front tooth. Red” seems very bashful with the girls in school but when he is up in C , Oh, boy! While not in school he is up to Fosdicks giving them a few pointers on steam engines. RUTH MABEL HOOPER A bright, little lass from Shirley. Without Ruth we don ' t see how Hazel could live through the sixth hour English class in Room 25. She surely does take good care of her?? We hear that Marion and she are planning to keep bachelor girls” apart- ments when they get older. But we have our doubts.

GERTRUDE IRENE ( ' .IBSON I am always merry. Gert is one of tlie brilliant pupils in the Commercial Course. How she does it we don’t know for between books and Jimmy her time is pretty well taken up. Noted for her constancy to Jimmy and great fondness for the latest in dancing, .‘ nother one of Mr. Amiott’s stenographers. CLIFFORD GILBERT In arguing, loo, the person armed his skill-, For e ' en Ihough conquered, he could argue slill. When it comes to debating and arguing, in Clifford ' s case, it’s “Lead me to it. If noise were pennies, he ' d be a millionaire, for it ' s no use arguing with him for he’s always right anyway. We are thinking of sending him to Charlie to argue out a two-session-a-week plan, but that would be mean, for what chance would poor Mr. C. T. have? How about last fall when he told Frank a photographer couldn’t light up the assembly hall? NORMAN J. GODBEER IVe think loo lillle Who talk ho much. Of late we have missed the little old Norm, from our ranks, but he has been called to greater things, i.e., was summoned by the F. B, C. to take up a business training there that he might more speedily take up the duties of a prominent business man. 23 ELLEN OLIVIA GROOP .1 girl, light-hearted and content I wander through the world. Ellen is a (juiet girl and takes everything as it conies. She is another part-time student and is the City Treasurer during that time. It is said that two blondes can’t agree but judging from what we hear and see, Ellen’s case is an exception, for she and T. j . are both blondes. Noted for her pink cheeks. GRACE GWVNNE Why don ' t I gro7u? Grace Is a small busy person of the Com- mercial Course who hails from up West. If it weren ' t for this little mite the Sentinel Office would have to close, for without her they would be as helpless as a chicken swim- ming in mid-ocean. RUDOLPH JOHN HAAPINIEMI A good heart is worth gold. “Happy is one of the most loyal, depend- able members of the class. He is present at nearly every athletic event and is an ardent supporter. He is also a star pupil. One look at his report car l is convincing. Happy is going to be a good advertisement for the Class of 1921. Principal pastime is drumming the keys. Noted for his tendency to whisper in Physics.

BERNARD ALOYSIUS MORGAN Winter has a joy for me. “Bun” is one of our notable pedestrians. He resides in the West End (don ' t cher know). He has worn a good path from West through liis daily walk to school and is one of the F. L. ' s most dangerous competitors. He is also a wonderful dreamer of winter. “Give me snow and a pair of skis and let the rest of the world roll by. Morgan has his eye on some girl in the fifth hour Latin class. Hor- rors, Bernard! We take it all back. ( Noted for his hiking trips and keeping away from the girls. LYDIA HAUSCHILD My chief pleasure lies in my work. Lydia certainly does love to study. We expect to see her at the head of some large business concern — or maybe Mayor of the city. You never can tell. Noted for her shyness towards her teachers. GARDNER CUMMINGS HUDSON ' ■ am Sir Oracle and when I ope ' my mouth Let no dog bark. When brightness was given out Gardner was in the front row and that’s all we ' ve heard ever since. Every now and then we Itear his voice peal forth from the stage with the force of a gas house explosion, only filled with hot air. He edited the two editions of the Red and Grey, and showed his business ability by raising the price ten cents to cover the costs of those much-advertised BEAUTIFUL cuts. He is also quite an actor as he has appeared in two plays this year, making a hit in both. 25 ESTHER EDITH HUKARI I kno o you are full of good niture. Esther is much interested in music and is quite a singer. She hopes to enter N. E. Conservatory of Music and e.xpects to be an- other Geraldine Farrar. Good luck to you, Esther. But we learn that music is not all she is interested in. A certain up-town drug store has quite an attraction for her, and we hear she is an expert cook. SCOTT ARTHUR HUTCHINSON Ah, but he admits of no parallel. One busy man is “Scotty. Business man- ager of the “Red and Gray,” Class Book com- mittee, Editor of the 3rd Hour Math, paper, run much to Mr. Howe ' s embarrassment, are a few of the many things which take his time — when “she is not around. He is another of those Seniors who are interested in certain Juniors. She will miss him vcr ’ much when he leaves. However, “Scotty” e.xpects to make F. H. S. immortal when he gets to Dartmouth. He has already made the Senior Latin Class famous by being its standby — when the others recite. Noted for his business appearance. TOIVO JALKO .All dressed up and no place to go. The aristocrat of the Industrial Course is Toivo. (Oftentimes we see him in attendance at dances and you should see the beauties he lands. However, he pulls down good marks and that is all that is necessary in this beloved high school.. Noted for his perseverance in the right.
