MARJORIE ALLEN SMITH “Betty” College Preparatory Course G. H. S. has seen “Betty” only off and on these past four years.

His greatest weakness is riding in “Rip” allner’s Buick. “Chet” has been rather quiet during his four years in High School, but he works hard at his commercial work.

EXPONENT ANNUAL 21 •MARJOKIE LORRAINE REYNOLDS “Margie” Liberal Arts Course Marjorie was another member of the h xponent 2, 3. Undoubtedly she is one of the liveliest members of the class. She is always seen at dances, never lacking a “Ixjy friend.” Next year Margie” is planning to go in training at a Childrens’ Hospital. Can’t you just picture her in a crisp, white uniform? Good luck, “Margie.” JEANNETTE TOLlTA RICHARDS “Jen” Commercial Course “Jen” is the life of every party. Still she always rides in one certain Ford.

His other activities have been Soccer: Class Basketball 4; and “Fads and F ' rills” 4. HILDRETH CARROLL RITTALI, “Hilly” Commercial Course “Hilly” is a contradiction: a studious- looking boy, with a sense of humor. He has made and held many friendships while in high school, probably by his individuality. He has been an active worker in Commercial Club for two years and was its secretary as a Junior. His plans are not known, but they are sure to be worth-while. Here’s luck, “Hilly.” EARLE FREDERIC ROBBINS “Gully” College Preparatory Course “Gully” is one of our popular humor¬ ists, as well as possessing the happy ability of sleeping in class.

THORA ADA BARBARA RUCKSTUHL “Thora” Liberal Arts Course Thora is a quiet modest girl who is at first usually unnoticed until she gives one of her brilliant classroom recitations. Although she takes a Liberal Arts Course most of her subjects are in the C. P. group, and can she show the C. P. students a thing or two? WANDA KAROLINE SADOWSKI “Wan” Wanda doesn’t believe in being noisy about G. H. S., and it seems good to find a quiet girl now-a-days, we’ll all agree. Wanda will be wearing a Pro Merito pin — for her four years have not been wasted. “Wan” has been a mem¬ ber of the Glee Club 1, 2, and Latin Club 3. WINTHROP WHITNEY SANDERSON “Sandy” College Preparatory Course Although a newcomer in his Sopho¬ more year, “Sandy” is everybody’s friend. Beneath that serious counte¬ nance he has a heart of gold and a fun- loving nature. He has been active aside from studies, having played F ' ootball 3: on Archery Team 2, 3, 4: and been in Hi-Y 4. Here ' s a wish from the heart that you ' ll succeed, “Sandy.” HENRY ALBERT SEREMETH “Chick” College Preparatory Course Gill road is quite a distance from Greenfield High, and as a result “Chick” has had little time for activities. Good luck to you, “Chick.”

Among her activities were Science Club 3, Art Club 4, Glee Club 3, 4.

S., but her iuiet ways and friendly smile have made her many intimate friends who declare she isn’t half so quiet as she appears.

EARL DOUGLAS SUHL “Suhlie” Liberal Arts Course Cheerful, energetic, friendly, popular — that’s “Suhlie.” He might have been called “Smiles,” because he is always happy.

She has made many friends while here at school, and, al¬ though she is uncertain in regard to her future, we feel sure that others will like her as well as we.

She never could seem to get to school on time! “Eddy” expects to enter nursing school. Lucky patients!
