Earl Gruenenfelder Earl is usually quiet and rather shy. He has proven very capable and trustworthy as Senior Class secretary. A good student, he has a bent for science in particular. On the football team he played and fought hard for Highland High. Clarence lberg He is another one of our quiet and rather shy lads. He played as tackle on the football team and cer- tainly helped to hold that line. He has proven to be a good athlete on all occasions. Verna Haller If, from among the Seniors, We were to nominate for the Hall of Fame, high in the list would come the name of Verna Haller. With- out exception she has proven her- self the most versatile girl in the class. Her many activities in our High School days seem to have been prompted by a sincere desire for helpfulness. In our dramatic productions it was she who quite often lifted them above the average amateur theatrical. May We hear from you in the years to come, Verna! Eileen Iberg Wholesome good humor is her constant companion. She's a whiz on the basketball floor and plenty clever when it comes to telling a. tale. She collected the jokes for the Iris because if there is any fun in this old World Eileen will find it.

Ruth Reinhart By those with whom she is not well acquainted Ruth is generally regarded as a very serious minded and demure little lass. However, though she was with us only a year, this was long enough for us to discover in her a mingling of high mentality and ever so sunny a disposition. In our class play she gave a splendid performance in a very difficult role. Junior Ruegger Junior will stand out in our mem- ory as our most indifferent Senior. He scorned much that the rest of us considered Worthwhile but through it all managed to maintain interest enough to make his record as a student a good one and to Win his way into the affection of many of the boys in school. Clifton Riggs His is a dual nature that makes im very industrious one day and Peck's Bad Boy the next. But alwavs he remains the most like- able sort of a fellow. Though han- dicapped in size, he won his laurels in basketball during the Tourna- ment at Carlyle. h Herbert Schmidt A dependable fellow and a dili- gent student, he should go far in this world. A true gentleman by nature, he made many friends in his short year with us. He gave a splendid performance in our class play and was an untiring, con- scientious worker on the Iris staff.
