RENEE LIPMAN Renee is Z1 person whom, unfortunately for us, not many people got to know. But those who did certainly realize what a truly fine girl she is. She is a good student, and a great reader, being able to give you a clear, concise resume of almost any of the books of the day. Renee is also a great lover of the fine and beautiful things, being the dreamy type of girl. She is really a delight- ful person, one who is worth while know- ing and worth while remembering. WARREN LYNCH Wfhen Warren entered the school in the grades he was nick-named by his fellow classmates War-face. Probably even at that tender age his companions found that he was a determined fighter and would plunge into a thing and give his best to it until it was done. He never lost this qual- ity, and when he reached high school it was especially well brought out by his spirit on the basket-ball floor, on the football field, where he was captain in his Senior year, as co-editor of the RECORD, and in his marvelous characterization of Duke Lambert in Death Takes a Holiday. But XVarren isn't always determined, for his keen sense of humor and his clever cartoons have been the source of many amusing moments to us and will be to others in the years to come. MILDRED MAURER Remember the charming little Grazia in Death Takes a Holidayn? Well, that was Milly. She won everyone completely as she does in everyday life. The best way to de- fine her is to say she is a darn good sport. She is good in athletics. She is willing to try anything you ask of her. She has a charm- ing sense of humor, but when the occasion calls she can drag down as high marks as she wants in her studies. We shall always remember those sparkling eyes shining through long, dark lashes. We'll miss Milly, our class midget, very much. Tzvcfzfy-Seven THE PARKER RECORD 193 2

f es Kgs THE PARKER RECORD 1 9 3 2 Tzvezity-Six RUTH KELLOGG Ruth is a girl who has gone upward ever since that day she entered Parker in kinder- garten. Her last year at Parker has been one honor after another. Having the position of Judge Qtwo termsj and of Literary Editor of the Weekly, she found it necessary to give up the honor of presidency of the Senior Class. She is also one of the best speakers on the extemporaneous speaking team and has taken an active part in the Forum. Ruth also has one of the keenest minds in the class. Hers is to be the rare choice of being a scientist, a mathematician, or--what have you? And on top of all this she plays the piano skillfully. Ruth has won the respect and liking of everyone, and she is a girl whom the students of her class will never forget. LOIS KLAFTER Being unusually self-contained rather than expressive, Lois has contributed a distinct variety in a class many of whom seldom suppress an inclination to talk. This re- straint does not result from a lack of some- thing to say, either, for Lois has a real mind which is busy all the time. How often we have envied her when she smoothly wrote away at an examination paper! Perhaps we could have known Lois better if she had talked a good deal more to more of us, but however that may be, she has filled a unique position in thc class. ESTHER LIEBLING Small but powerful -this describes Es- ther to a UT. Her laughter is often heard and she is always ready with some funny retort. Under her bubbling personality Es- ther has one of the finest brains at Parker and she tries hard to do her work success- fully. She is often found Working indus- triously in the chemistry laboratory, and she has been active in the Forums. She is a happy, care-free person who will always have friends wherever she goes. Here's luck, Esther.

Q te iw? , K-affgfr'-f M Melia wax-. THE PARKER RECORD 1 932 Twcnt y-E ight FRANCES MORTON Could anyone help liking this attractive blond? She has a lovely disposition, and is pleasant and ready to help others. Fran is the life of any party and we are always ready to listen to her droll and unusual way of telling things. She adds pep to a crowd because of her line sense of humor and her ability to draw people together. One of her best assets is that she sees the best in people and overlooks their faults. A slender, dash- ing figure-blue eyes and golden hair- there she goes! What's she saying? . . . Wait for me . . . how familiar that plaintive little appeal sounds. Who wouldn't wait for Franny? OTTO PABST Otto's wrong again. That was the fa- mous war cry of the class against Otto, but the funny part of it is that it was usually vice versa. He used to get peeved as it really was an insult against that fine brain of his, but when we really realized just how fine his brain is we stopped saying that. So now, Otto is always right and the rest of us go to him when we want something done. Otto is one of the old members of the class. He has always been a leader in his quiet way, and is famed for his sunny disposition. A good athlete, he has won two football letters in spite of his lightness of weight. Otto is going to study pharmaceutical chemistry, and soon we shall be going to him to get our prescriptions filled. WILLIAM PATTISON Bill's conscientiousness and sincerity are his outstanding traits. He has more practi- cal intelligence than anybody in the class. Notwithstanding how good a student he is, he has also entered numerous other activi- ties, having been Vice-President of Student Government and Business Manager of the Record, and he has been active in the For- um. He has won letters in football and basketball which are further proof of his versatility. He enjoys most heartily the an- tics of some of the classes' comedians, and one never is bored when conversing with him. When the class wants to achieve what it is undertaking in a fine manner and when common sense and responsibility are needed, Pat is the fellow called upon.
