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.

'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

PHYLLIS BARBA Entered ,255 Glee Club '36, '37. HFIR autobiography was too good to be true, but we do sympathize with her for not wanting to be taken over the coals too much. Of course, we wouldnit know, but 'she has a rep. of having a very smooth attack presumably in a rumble seat. Apparently this has become a boomerang, for, while being sutllcient to attract older ones, it left her in the lurch when they went off to college. Having only the small fry now, she has become utterly bored with life in general, and tries her best to be cynical and sarcastic. But her subtle wise-cracks and great fondness mixed with inces- sant chatter, save her from any comedown by her classmates. Maybe it's that debutante slouch, her Irish eyes, and goodwill toward all which do the trick. Our advice might be- lie good, sweet maid, and let who will be clever. GFS OWEN CHAMBERLAIN Entered ,345 Glee Club '36g Operetta '36: Baseball Manager '37. AH, but Franky, stein- and so be most persuasivelv ding scientist. Just explain the principle my dear, according to Ein- another theory is about to f?l expounded bv our bud- ask Professor Bird-legs to behind a coherer or merely mention the electrostatic forces, then settle your- self in a comfortable chair for an interesting CU hour. VVhy does Owen put so much wear and tear on his hands, and how do they manage to withstand it? VVe feel that it must give him consolation in times of stress. And who can forget that inimitable smile in times of satisfaction such as when he has just confounded Mr. Breininger CFD or when he has just successfully made a conquest with some pick- ups? VVe've yet to find the physics problem that will stump Owen. He says he is going to give Mr. Bennett an A-in that course this month.
