'36. BETTY is the healthiest, most wholesome girl in the class, and she manages to keep her figure by con- stant dieting on salads Qwith a plate of ice cream for good luck.j We all know she is a genius even if she is the child of the class Ca mere babe in swaddling clothesj, but her modesty must needs hide it from her fellowmen. But stop, she doesn't like to be teased. Fickle? Oh, surely not our all too perfect class- mate. VVell, it's hard to believe, but facts will tell! Betty, much to the regret of the other three members, has just dropped out of the N.A.A. CNon-Athletic Associationj Having been president for quite some time, her mem- bership was crossed off when she became a first team athlete. Sevente-an

WILLIAM RHOADS MURPHEY, III Entered '24, Class Vice-President '35, Class President '37, Glee Club '35, '36, '37, Operetta '35, '36, Football '34-, '35, Soccer '361 Burn ANI: VVHITIU Board, Paslorian Board '35, '36, '37, Elocution Contest '35, '36, '37, PAST' master of the spoken and written word is our prexy. As we listen to his amazing orations, watch his double-jointed arms herald the climax, and see him literally trip downstairs, we realize he is a genius. Murph possesses an excellent set of vocal chords and uses them adeptly in Qtooj many ways-an earful of that laugh is enough to floor you. VVe've yet to meet the man who can persuade him that there are two sides to every problem, but it doesn't worry us, because for a man with such strength of con- viction, gosh, there must be some place in this world. They tell us he solicits information from the daily newspapers on some of his problems: Dear Dorothy D-Why don't you answer my urgent letter? Fm up the proverbial tree. How now, trouble for our preXy? Sixteen

I-IELEN seems to give her afections away to every place except here-first Cleveland, the great VVest, where men are men, then Geneva, Where she managed to get quite a compound of foreign element. VVe,re really quite nice-just ask us! But she,s coming along gradually, we hope. However, she manages quite a grin for us, the old tooth-paste ad, in fact her jokes Conce in a great whilej even make us join her in her merriment. Her voice is never heard to be raised, unless, of course, someone buys Dueo paint, an unpardonable sin. Helen thinks she's an artist, sometimes we wonder. Look at the results in, other pages of this book and draw your own conclusions, hut don't let her draw them for you! GF RAYMOND LESLIE BENNETT Entered '24g Pastoriau Board '35, '37g Hand- book Boaru '36, '31 3 Glass Treasurer '31 5 Soccer '36g Basketball '37 5 Track '36, '37. I-IEY, Perce, how about those dues? What a job is Duperis! He meets with more suc- cess in the lfhysics class, where, ,tis said, when he misses a problem, Hellis foundations quiver at the shouts of his exultant friends and the gnash- ing of his teeth. Bill Fletcher and Dave have been whispering in his ear in an attempt to lead him astray, their goal is to get him to a senior dance and we would certainly like to see them succeed. VVhat an uproar that would create! However, we can't see Raymond anywhere but out in the orchard look- ing over this year's crop of apples.
