Clayton Iluntting His pencil dreiu whale' er his soul designs It is rumored that Clayton expects to be a great artist some day; and as a promise of suc- cess perhaps you will remember his Acropolis of Freshman year?

Chief occupation: Chinning the ladies and amusing classmates with his drawings. Tecnnical Course. Dramatic Club. Class Book Committee. Into Jarvela A good heart is worth gold In spite of all his good qualities Into considers himself unimportant. Into is the boy who was able to travel to Tufts and back on one thin dime. Into's chief interest is, has been, and always will be, athletics. He made the football team this year and will be remembered for his brilliant catching of forward passes at crucial moments.

Ingvald Johnson A boy with a curl always catches a girl Not much is known about Ingvald in school although he is by no means among the gentle and meek.

Noted for that pompadour. Commercial Course. Sigrid Johnson The grass stoops not, she treads on it so light Siggy is a well-beloved friend of the gang and one of Gold Dust twins. Sigrid appears so very modest, but there is an exception to every rule, and the one exception is — Sigrid. .She has a fondness for molasses, also a weak spot for danc- ing and parties. Siggy has an erratic heart as it travels Boston way during school time and W. F. during vacation times. She is quite an ice skater. General Course. Dramatic Club. Sigrid Jokinen Bashfulness is an ornament to youth While in our midst Sigrid is extremely quiet, always working serenely and taking everything as it comes.
