SEIXHORS Louise Adkisson She has what it takes-a real sense of humor. And that makes her oodles of funf' For proof, just gain her friendship. and if you don't laugh. I'd say you were a born grouch. Margaret Ballatore We hear that a one-pound gain will put Margaret on a diet for a week. And man are the who env her slenderness. Mar- Y Y Y garet wants to be a beauty operator. Marie Barbatti Marie is one of our hard-working students and she spends lots of time with her books. You should take a look at her report card if you don't believe us. Erma Barricklow Erma is one of our whizzes in the art of shorthand and typing. She is also one of the few girls around school who has not coat- ed herself with a superficial veneer. Demure and modestly anna bitious. Maryanna Beckemeyer Maryanna, president of our girls' chorus, is blessed with a great deal of initiative and managing ability. Always .in honor student, she is industrious and capable. Her one vice: she likes to chew gum. Americo Bellaver Americo has beautiful curly hair and are the girls envious: To make it worse, hels bashful and won't have much to do with them. However, we'll bet that some smart girl will get him be- fore long. Evelyn Benedict Evelyn was so quiet that we hardly knew she was ii member of our class. We can't always judge quality by quantity. though. for who knows but she will do great things some day. How about it, Evelyn? Mary Ann Bernardini Pretty, petite, and poised, Mary Ann has had the distinction of having been a class president as well as president of the com- mercial club. And believe it or not, her secret passions are Clark Gable and Robert Taylor. Norma Billo Norma is rather quiet and reserved, and a friend to everyone who knows her. Our Shakespearean knowledge must eke out and as Will would say, Her voice was ever soft and low, an excellent thing in woman. Frances Blackburn This pert Miss is quiet vivacious, pretty, happy, sweet and gracious. That little rhyme describes Frances to a T. Frances told us that she doesn'r like to be kept waiting. just a little hint, boys! W! i Page sixteen

Catherine Bonetto Catherine is one girl who is honest and true to her colors. She's everybody's friend and nobody!s enemy. It is no wonder she has so many friends who speal: so well of her. Byrl Boyd Byrl is that rall, good-looking fellow you see around the halls. But, girls! Listen to this discouraging fact-he already has a girl. So that means that he's not in circulation. Wfoe is me! Edna Brown Edna, Leo, and Ralph are really different shades of Brown. In describing Edna, we'll just talce a few lines by Lowell: For she was jes' the quiet lcind Whose natures never vary, Lilce streams that keep a summer mind Snowhid in jenooaryf, Leo Brown Leo is a scholar of no mean ability. His only weakness is his modesty, but that we venture to call a virtue. In pursuit of the secrets of his studies, he must burn a lot of midnight oil. Ralph Brown Ralph is free, white, and probably eighteen. But that isnit all we have to say about him. He loves to read and seems to remember what he reads, too, for he can tall: and talk well. Cecil Camplin Here's one of our carnival quintuplets. We thinlc he was the cutest! Rather modest, Cecil lets his performances in football and basketball speak for themselves. Verily, there is nothing the matter with Camplin. Robert Carriker Here's another Irving lad who is plenty of fun. Not only is he a humorist, but he is a good history student, a fine musician fbeing honored with the first clarinet chairj and above all, he is a gentleman. Tom Carter Now we have held this one off as long as we can. Tom is a puzzle. Such a mixture of seriousness and foolishness, brains and vacuum, smiles and sighs, you never saw. Figure him out for yourself. Mike Cobetto Is there anything that he hasn't thought up to do? If there is, then it isn't worth doing. Mike always has a good time no matter where he is, and that's something! Edward Cress A great fellow! That's the best way to introduce Ed! We don't know where to start in telling you about him but he's done plenty. Also, we have to be careful what we say because he is our editor. Page seventeen SENIORS
