Dean Steinkoenig If Dean made any enemies during his year with us it was among the boys because of his popularity with the opposite sex. Somewhere a- long the way he has learned the art of balancing work and play. He showed his worth on the basket- ball floor and though quiet in the classroom, there was always evi- dence of a clear understanding of the subject at hand. Erna Stocker Slow and painstaking in her ways, she is a conscientious stu- dent. She showed a keen appreci- ation of literature. Because of her sympathetic understanding of the problems of life in her two years with us, she won our love and re- spect. Curtis Stocker Carefree and quiet by nature in the classroom, he showed occasion- al Hashes of genuine wit. He took a great interest in Manual Train- ing and Won no end of praise for his good woodwork. Bess Stoecklin Bess took part in our Junior play and was always a conscientious committee member. Her good na- ture won for her a host of friends, both boys and girls. She shows a remarkable faculty for adjusting herself to different groups. She is at home in many circles-always a pleasant, helpful companion.

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.

Amy Tabor Amy has been a good sport and a good friend to all. She played basket-ball on the girl's varsity team and proved a very good play- er. She certainly deserves all the success possible in days to come. John Tschannen Hans is true blue. He fights fairly and for his reward made a good showing on the grade sheet and Won no end of praise as an athlete. If Highland High can al- ways turn out students of his metal we have nothing to fear. Alice Tschannen Alice was our staff artist and helped us in countless other Ways all during our school days. A dreamer by nature she was at the same time a good student. There is a qual'ty of Wistfulness in her make-up that wins for her the af- fect'on of all with Whom she is associated. YVinona Wviegreie During her four years in High School, WVinona has distinguished herself as a real student. She has the zest for knowledge that makes her record an outstanding' one, scholastically. Her industry, re- sourcefulness, and ability to han- dle a pen brought her the unani- mous vote of classmates and facul- ty for Iris editor.
