To those who have managed to gain her friendship, she is a girl with a grand sense of humor and a big heart. Hazel has musical talent. She has sung many solos, and she sings blue songsv as no one else can. She was an efiicient head of the Glee Club, and one can often find her practicing in the music room at Student Activities period. She is gifted dramatically, as was shown by her excellent portrayal of Lady Macbeth. Besides all this, Hazel is dependable and knows how to mind her own business, a quality which is suf- ficient in itself. GORDON ROSS Gordon is six feet three inches of plain, solid, good fun. Being here since first grade, Gordon has had the chance and time to pile achievements and varied knowledge upon himself. Being manager of Pnrkcr's football and basketball teams was one achievement and was no easy job, but Gordon did it well. He has a natural gift for repairing and building things and he has developed into quite a naturalist a-nd chemist. Gordon is a person who, if he tackles a thing, keeps right at it until it is done, and done well. He has a unique mixture of common sense, leader- ship, a nimble wit, and the fibre of a real student. I-RANK ROTHSCHILD Frank is such a jolly fellow that one might think he could never be serious. When he does settle down he astonishes one with the knowledge, common sense, and power of thought that he possesses. Frank will always be remembered for his excep- tional work in chemistry and physics, also, for his faithful work on the Record. He has always been a sincere friend to all of us- a just and unassuming person. We are sure that Frank will always face the musicf' whatever it may be, with a staunch heart.

ABBOTT L. PATTISON Abbott has held many important positions and has had many honors in his long career at Parker. As vice-president of Student Government, he has managed the study halls in a way which both students and faculty have liked. As one of the editors of the Record, his artistic ability has been very helpful. Besides these two most important jobs, he has found time to play in the or- chestra, to 'play lightweight basketball, and to keep his studies above reproach. So with all these capabilities Pat', is going to have a hard time choosing whether he should be an artist, musician, basketball player, scholar, or billiard player. For don't forget he is also an artist with a cue. JEROME PICKARD What would the senior class do without Picky, the child prodigy of Parker? Jerome lays claim to being Chicago's champ- ion lover of roof gardens and penthousesg also to being Mr. Osborne's exploder-in- chief, although he is the only one who can readily supply symbols for all chemical formulae. Jerome has more flowers in his speech than Burbank had in his garden, and the word exceeding two syllables doesn't exist that Jerry hasn't mispronounced. At times Jerome indulges himself in rather vague and pointless humor, but at other times he makes a remarkable showing of the swift workings of his very clever mind. We won't forget Jerome in a hurry. K7 JOCELYN POWELL Joe goes quietly on her way, and though most people donlt really know her, they can't help being aware of her many talents. First and greatest is her music, which she hopes to make her work. Her cleverness in art few people see, but it will come out. She is one of those to whom people go for help, and sometimes she is Upestered to deathf, but her disposition is unperturbed. She is a bundle of surprises and lots of fun if you can get her started. Her balance and steadiness are fine. The finishing touch is that with all her talents she is a good sport and ready to try something new. ,c M Q, os t alma wg uma TX X mrR'.',E.N .. , , , xv f '2 K l- V , U .TEN .43-W., 'f' . pi -' J . if K E fl X: il '- I if W ' F55 ri, In, ii miiild ' iggi.. l E

VIRGINIA RUUS She is one of 'the three blondes in our class. Being rather quiet and unassuming, few people know her real talents. She worked hard on the Weekly as the literary editor and has helped out much with writ- ing for the Record. She has unusual literary ability, always expressing herself clearly and in very good style. Virginia is a good friend, and will carry away the good wishes of all the class. Her success is an assurance, not a probability. NORMAN SACKHEIM Norman may be best described as a bril- liant scholar, with outside interests, and a good sport. His' marks show him to be an outstanding student, especially in subjects where individuality counts. He is well versed on all current interests, has his own opinions, and can argue intelligently about any one of them. His good speaking ability and his clearness of thought enables him to be on the Extemporaneous Speaking team. He is full of ambition and vim, and this with his keen mind will surely bring him success. PRESTON SELZ Here is one person who certainly has something over the rest of the class-mainly his head. Being considerably taller than any one else, he has the distinct advantage of being able to look down on us less fortun- ate mortals. Pres', is talented along many impractical lines, but really he is very clever. He writes very deep satires, and models busts and masks. He has a habit of absently sketching portraits on any blank piece of paper or tablecloth which happens to be handy. Few people know him well, but he is very well liked by his few friends. He plays an excellent game of chess. Pres oc- casionally shocks us all by wearing a black shirt or a monocle. His ideas are fantastic and radical, but nevertheless carefully thought out.
