Burnham, Hazen Andrus General Stunt Night 4; Home Room Activities 4. “Silence is the perfectest herald of joy. I were but little happy if I could say how much.” See no evil; speak no evil; hear no evil! That’s Hazen. But you may rest assured that when he does speak, his words contain meaning.

Connolly, Pauline Elizabeth “Polly” Scientific F'rench Club 4; Stunt Night 4; Home Room Activities 4. “Heady confidence promises victory without contest.” Polly is one of several of our class blondes.

Our advice to Pete is always to look on the bright side of life. Burnham, Hazel Myrtis Commercial Style Show 1; Home Room Activities 4. “Sense and perception must necessarily proceed from some incorporeal substance within us.” During our four years together Hazel has remained in the back-ground and let others take the spotlight.

Cootie is one of the most popular boys in school and is a true friend to all. Curtis, Clyde Francis “Dunie” General Football 4; Dramatic Club 4; Senior Play 4; Baseball 4. “Old men fall easily into recitals of past transactions.” Clyde came to us from Lebanon this year.
