12. THE BROWN AND WHITE. IANET MARTIN-Janet is pretty, dignified fand sweet, but iwas a bit awkward at first at stage love-making. She confessed once at rehearsal that she very seldom laughed aloud. We wonder if she is saving her laughing and her smiles for the Commencement dance? For Carnegie Tech is not so very far away. ELIZABETH ilIARTI.Y-- I ib ntourns that she blushes so much. Hut blushing is sometimes very becoming, although the question might be asked if it has anything to do with her fondness for 'fBy the Light of the Silvery Moon. JOHN SCHERRER-5'Dutch is always dreaming, VVe wonder if the subject of his thoughts is Oregon Elsie, or if it is a certain night when he watched for Halley's comet. RAY KOON-The most popular fellow' in High school, as is evidenced by the notes he re- ceives. XVhether this is due to his nature, Htoo noble for this world, or to his angelic appear- ance, it is hard to say. But. pritliee, tell us, why art thou so fond of yellow hair and blue eyes? HUGH and TR UNIAN HALL- The myster- ious twainf' VVe know that it is Truman who talks so fast, and Hugh who seldom smiles, but farther than this in distinguishing them we have never been able to go. GEORGE WOLFE-f'Granrlpa is the shark of the 'classf' So 'wonderful is his store of knowl- edge that the splendor of it burns too brightly for our eyes.' Stoic, unbend that brow. CAROLINE ZUNDEL-To lock at 'Caroline one would never think that she ha-.l a genius for excelling any bay in the class in debate, and for presenting sound arguments in such a convincing Way that she generally comes out ahead. DELLA FRIEDMAN-The poet and artist of IQIO, whose work has had a great part in the editing of the High school paper. VV'e know that rhyme is not the rock on which Della is to wreck, and we predict a great future for her of the nimfble fingers and active brain. PAUL PERRY-Tall and distinguished look- ing, 'l'Sli'm Perry' is as true in his affections as he is tall, but in his case 'fthe attraction of oppo sites does not hold good, for he is very fond of a certain Gtijraff. .IAIWES GREGG- Colonel Jim, as he is fa- miliarly called, 'has become quite a shining light in the newspaper world. jim's Writeups on ath- letics, politics, etc., are important features of one of our leading dailies. VVe all hope Jim will at- tain great success in newspaperdom, and like- wise in the case of a well known damsel, GERALD DOXOHOE- A prophet is .with- out honor in his own country. So it is with 'fDenny. For though his schoolmates never heard him make a speech, yet the students of Jeannette High still resent the stinging sarcasm of his last oratorical effort. JOHN JOHNSON-eThe shark of the mathe- matics class. and the pride of ihlr. Bortz's heart Also, as the chief instigator of the mysterious triumvirate, he far ,outstrips Julius Caesar. , IWARGARET BAILEY-Better known as f'Peg. Peg was our literary editor and a good one, but even though she is literary herself, we known that she has a soft spot in her heart for such a tendency in others, for we find her much interested in a certain cub reporter of one of our town papers. EARL HUNKER-Hunker is a silent man from Hunkerf' 'but when you know him you find out that he's a mighty good sort. ROY HANCUFF-He seems to be very much interested in astronomy, as he was discovered one night looking for the comet through the Company I telescope. VVe wish him su-ccess. HELEN BAIR-Sweet and petite, Helen is truly Hthe dear little girl who is good. And as all good little girls should receive some reward, Helen gets a -box of candy almost every day. MEHALIA SINDORF-Quiet, gentle and sweet, Mehalia is a shining example to the rest of the class for good behavior. She is the kind who does not say much about what she is going to do, but just goes ahead and does it. MARYLIVIILLIGAN-If Maryls rosy cheeks are any indication of her good nature, 'then she must be as merry as the day is longf, Of her generosity iwe have no doubt, for we all know the size and excellent quality of 'her pieces of fudge. HARRY BURKHART- VVlinks has shown that a good carpenter can also be a good dancer and likewise a good financier.. Infact his genius is many-sided, for everyone knows that he takes a leading part in the play. WILLIS RUFFNER-As the future journal- ist and newspaper man, Den iwiill surely make good, if his success as editor of the Brown and White is any criterion. I

This is the senior's year and this month of all months is his because it is the month in which he graduates. Everything about the school is Senior, in fact, just nowg he is the school. But now, just as he is at the height of his power, does he thinfk about next fall? 'Can 'we imagine our noble senior as a college Freshman-his head, volumes under his arm. once thought to contain an almost marvelous brain adorned with a small, green cap with its yellow button: compelled to do stunts for every college man who meets himg forced to leave his bed at midnight and take a swim n some neigh- boring po-nd? Can it be that the Senior who now is the pride of his school will in three months be the butt of every joke? Even the underclassmen formerly awed by his presence, now that he is gone think over the matter and decide he is not as great as they had formerly thought. He didn't know so much more than they did and sometime they wo-uld he Seniors, too. So in a few short mlonths the Senior's glory fazles and he is 'brought face to face with facts for which he has been trained during his High school course. This is the ideal Senior. VVe do not know how many members of the present Senior class are in this number, but if there are any we suggest that their true light., Hoping we have made so-me impression worth while, we hid farewell to the class of IQIO and wish them unbounded success in the wide, wide worldfl w There are some peo- ple in every school who are continually knock- ing. When a team meets iwiith bad luck and loses a few games, they im- mediately complain about the team, the manage- ment and everything connected with it. If they fail in recitations, the teacher is voted a crank who is prejudiced against them. If they are roasted in the school.paper, they at once vow eternal vengeance upon the paper as a whole and the editor in particular. As school draws toward a close, they become worse and find more faults fwiith everything. There are a few of these people in our High school and we are glad that the number is exceedingly small. But these few BOOST
