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

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

SENIQRS john Curto Although John has been with us just this last year. we all feel like welve always known him. John's a pretty good sport and was always able to create a little excitement in chemistry class, Alfred Dagon Weld like to see more of Penn around the Campus. l'le is quiet sometimes, and cour'eous 'most always. But don't let this give you the wrong ideag Pat is really lots of fun, Marguerite Dagon The second Dagon in our graduating class is just as quiet as her brother-until you know her. Marguerite keeps up with the times for she reads the papers, not just the funny paper, either. Thelma Dilley Who says the old-fashioned girl is gone? Here's one modern Miss who really has made sewing her hobby. If you don't be- lieve it, just look at some of the clothes she wears. Yes, she made them. Leo Drabant Leo is a firm believer in conservation of energy and puts his belief into practice. However, when it comes to football and bas- ketball you'd never recognize him with all that pep! Leona Drabant Drabant has one great ambition-to be a radio warbler like Ruth Etting. fShe has a good start.l Singing is right in her line and may we state that St. Louis Blues a la Drabant isn't hard to take. George Duro George knows all the answers. Was he ever at a loss for words in class? Ask any German or chemistry student. George never drives away from school, but what his car can be seen. load- ed to capacity, with arms and legs spilling out the windows. Velma Elledge Velma is not too short or too tallg too quiet or too outspoken: too hasty or too slow. In fact we don't know just what it is that makes her so nice. Guess itls just her way. Carl Elmore Surely you know Carl! You know the fellow in the Ford VVS. He can usually be seen dashing around, and when we say dashing we mean just that. But after all, he seems to know how to handle his cat. Kenneth Elmore If Carl isn't in the V-8, then youlll know itls Kenneth. Do you remember Repeat in the Senior-Junior play? That was also Kenneth. Carl and Kenneth are brothers and both are one of Butler's grand contributions. Page eighteen
