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.

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.
