Kenneth Ray Durling An honest man' s word is as good as his bond Kenney was a part-timer for Miss GifFord and Mr. Dufour. His cheery personality has helped him to get many customers for his Sentinel paper route. His ambition is to be a first class machinist m the Navy. Assistant Councilor 4. Paul Allyn Ekengren A keen wit, a wise look, and an ansu'er always ready Paul is a calm person who remains poised in all circumstances. He has been a member of our band for the last two years and be- longs also to the Junior Legion Band. Outside of school he plays in three orchestras and collects pictures of swing bands. It sjems probable that Paul will continue in the line of music. Band 3, 4. Jarl Vesa Elo Success follous earnest effort Jarl is definitely interested in sciences, especially those dealing with electricity. He intends to be a pioneer in the uncultivated field of electrical warfare. Swimming and hiking lead all others as his favorite sports. Despite his many interests, Jarl is a very modest person. Kenneth Irving Emerson Talent is that ivhicl} is a man's power Kenney, better known to his friends as Skinny, is one of those individuals who can't keep still for a minute. He is interested in sports, mainly baseball and soccer. His hobbies are drawing and freehand art. Kenney hopes to become a commercial artist some day. Henry Joseph Erickson Dignified and tall was he, as much a man as one could be Someday Henry is going to be deplorably rich for he has a wonderful coin collection that should bring in quite a bit of money if he should ever cash it. Henry has been one of Miss Peabody's ablest stage hands. The air corps will be much the gainer in a few years, for Henry plans to enter after two years at college. Stage Hand 3. Clifford George Ey A friendly chap who is widely known Cliff usually greets people with a broad smile and a friendly Hi. We think that perhaps someday he will take Professor Quiz's place because he has an unusual faculty for asking questions. Ask any one in his chemistry class. Although Cliff did not take part in many school activities he took an interest in school functions and supported most of them. Page 22
