George Hector Perry Consistency, thou art a jewel. George is a quiet fellow who in class hardly ever says anything. But when he does say it, it is usually correct. He has the reputation of not caring for women, so he can usually be seen in the company of fellow-classmen. He is fond of read- ing and is often seen at the library. Kenneth Arthur Webster H s friends are everywhere . Kenny got his practice for the Junior-Senior Relay team by running to school from the Put's pond dis- trict. He loves to participate in sports, but his size ruled him out of the major competitions. If you ever want a guide for the Pearl Hill woods, ask for Kenny. Relay Team 3 Ring Committee 4 Marshal Aino Johanna Keskinen A lassie fair. With golden hair. Here is a maiden of calm and unruffled manner. Perhaps it is be- cause she never needs to worry about her report card, for high honors are a habit with her. Her class notes in the Red and Gray showed that she kept an open ear for every- thing of interest.

Phyllis, a somewhat quiet appear- ing girl, is interested in many things. Although lessons are secondary to her, she is not a poor student. She likes dancing particularly. Basketball 2, 3 Glee Club 3 Harold Pillsbury Rawson Music hath charjns to soothe the savage breast. Although we are minus the sav- age breast, Hal certainly can capti- vate one and all with his silver- toned cornet. Hal prefers music to studying, but he studies to under- stand music better. We often won- der how he keeps his hair so well combed. Band, Orchestra 2, 3, 4 Allan Arthur Jamnback Molasses sweet, but oh so slow! Allan has a fine sense of humor that is at its best when he is with Johnson. Allan, whose hobby is building airplanes, plans to be a for- ester. Beatrice Florence Lemoine As fair and jolly as she can be, A friend to you and a friend to me. X'hen this fair damsel is near, she brings joy to those who are sad.

Don't you think she'll make a cute secretary .■' Volleyball 2, 3 Basketball, Hockey 2, 3, 4 Dramatic Club 3, 4 Chairman, Sick Committee 4 Councillor 4 Alice Edna Lindstrom An open-hearted maiden, true and pure.

Daisto Ensio Luokkala So shall a prudent tnan do good work With bountiful gifts. Daisto walks about the school with an air of dignity and reserve. And why shouldn't he, for he pos- sesses a matured, methodical mind and goes about his work in a thor- ough manner with no excess of thought or motion. Ring Committee 4 Herbert Gustave Laakso The rule of my life is to make busi- ness a pleasure, and pleasure a business. Herb is a fast man, not only when he's on the track, but also when he's ofT. He is popular with the gals as you can see when you glance at the Senior Notable list, or by his company.

Bertha is a tall and fair maiden who, because of looks as well as for her congenial self, has made a host of friends. She is a student in the commercial course and someday she will probably be an excellent secretary'. Basketball 2 Dramatic Club 4 Hester Lois Hyatt Some like tvork; some like fun. I'm for both. Hester is at times serious minded, especially when her nimble fingers are flying over the keys of the type- writer doing some history for Miss Gifford. Her idea of a humorous situation centers in a practical joke. Some day we may hear of Hester as a private secretary for a large concern. French Club 2 Marshal Dramatic Club 3, 4 22
