MARY LEES MCKINNEY KINNEY is known through the sehool for her giggle, and this alone is enough to send the entire senior elass into hysterics. She gets so worked up over her Chemistry tests that she is continually threatening to drop the suhject immediately, This never happens, however, hecause she sticks to and conquers whatever she attempts. Besides doing well in her work. Rumpy's a whip on any team, and is one of our few four letter girls. Although wrapped up in her school work and sports she's very active with the opposite sex, and studies hoys of all types and ages. ln fact, next to athletics they are her hohhy. 5 UUUU Entered Kindergarten.

DOUGLAS MclLVAlN DOUG is the member of the class with a farm some miles outside the city, and the whole class drove out one Saturday and had a super time. We rode tractors and horses all over the fields and got so hungry that Doug had to use a great deal of tact in preventing the murder of some of the livestock. At school we iind him rather quiet, hut when he wants to say something it always carries a lot of weight. lt's the same way on the soccer field, once he gets going he's awfully hard to stop.

JAMES D. JOHNSON JIMMY is perhaps the quietest memher of a very noisy class, and is usually doing something conf structive while we're making a terrihc noise in the front hall. It's the same way in class. We may all think a test is hard Uim includcdj, hut in the final counting he always gets one of the hardest questions. How? just hy listening a little hetter than the rest of us. This year he managed the soccer team heautifully, and we always had cars and towels, which is credit enough for any manager. jim is also interested in hoats and is constantly correcting us on our tonnage and class, and how he keeps track of the sinkings is a naval secret. If it keeps up, jim, you'll have plenty of ships to design. Soccer MGTIQEET lltlz. Glee Club 10th. Iltli, 12th. 'Ten' nis. Basketball.

Few people ever see Mary Lee's hair mussed or her composure broken-in fact, few people ever see Mary Lee. She doesn't spend any more time than necessary around AG. F. S, and if Lone Star House should ever prove too dull of a week-end, and we douht that, the Dragon Lady thinks nothing of tooting off to Hill or even Texas for awhile. You can never get near enough to her to say hello at any of the famous dances, and the rest of us just step out of the running when she comes on to the floor. But we don't care hecause she deserves it. Don't break too many hearts, Mary Lee' Entered Kindergarten. Glce Club l0tb, lltli, 12th. Treasurer lltli. Athletic C 0 u 11 ci l Sth. Badminton lltb, 12th.

r,,v,,,?,, ELIZABETH MILLER l IF you ever want a good laugh hunt up Betty-f you will hoth hear and get one. She has the most marvelous sense of humor imaginahle, so ahundant is it that seeing Betts collapsed in a chair with tears streaming down her cheeks, and hearing her orig- inal, accompanying squeak is not a rare thing. Partly due to this, partly hecause she is a good listener fdon't get us wrong, she's a good talker, too! lj, hut mostly hecause she is always ready to sympathize with anyone on any suhject, she is a wonderful person to have around. Way hack in Sth grade she used to worry ahout her gangly tallf ness and straight hair. Now. we wonder why, for Betty's appearance rates with us, and we'll remem- lwer this goodflookin' gal.

Qs W or lla MARGARET McPHEDRAN MARC is certainly an ohliging person, and will do almost anything for you just for th: asking fafter the proper amount of groaningj. She's quiet hut always has the answers, and is one of those people who love the arts, including the Rodin Mu' seum. In fact, we are often amazed hy the remarks Marg comes out with. She admits sh: can't sing. hut is an ardent listener of Bach and Brahms, and she loves to read poetry. Another favorite pastime is sailing, far removed from the works of Virgil and Van Gogh. Her family is wonderful, and if you haven't spent a weekfend at the Mcl'hedran's, you've missed something. Marg's a great girl, and we're very fond of her. i Entered lst. Roberta lar' din Award.
