Mary Evelyn Smith This quiet lass is a perfect example of what every mother wishes her daughter to be-modest, sweet, and reserved. By the way, her name often graces the honor roll. Dena Stein Here is one girl who can swim, and swim well. In fact her whole family is gifted that way. But swimming is not Dena's only accomplishment. She has gained many friends in the few years she has been with us. Geraldine Strange A leader in her field Qsounds like a General lVlotor,s adi is our way of describing Jerry. She slings a wicked pen and isn't a bit hesitant about using it. Jerry has had a part in almost ev- ery school activity. Leo Strausbaugh Leo made a name for himself through his characterization of the poet in the play given at Sr-Jr banquet. When it comes to acting, Leo has what it takes! Virginia Taulbee Virginia's hobby is collecting handkerchiefs and her ambition is to be a nurse. She is very conscientious about her work, and we might add, about her appearance. Has anyone ever seen a single hair out of place? Eva Thompson Eva can do about anything. She says she'll decide on a career after finishing school. She might be a stenographer. Her likes: swimming, dancing. and playing duets with Esther. Wilina Titsworth Quiet? Not when you know her. Who says all girls are beautiful but dumb? Take a look at this picture and then dwell on the fact that Wilma makes very good grades. You'll have to admit that there are exceptions to the rule, and that Wilma is a good one. Margaret Toberman You can't help but admire this girl with her modesty and her simplicity. She's quiet, sometimes much too quiet-but this seems only to add to her attractiveness. John Trhlik John is just a wee bit timid with the girls. but he's a man's man. judging by the way he observes the rules and regulations of our alma mater, we predict that he will become an upright, law-abiding citizen. Ida May Turner Ida May isn't at all loquacious, but we finally found that her ambition is to be a nurse and her hobby is sewing. With two such fine accomplishments as these to her credit, won,t she make a fine wife for some man? V Page twenty- five SENIORS

SENIORS Q Peg .M N. Julio Santoro According to some of our commuters, julio kept life merry on the bus. He has a great sense of humor and sees everything thatls funnyg but he can always be counted on and trusted. Deane Saunders Deane hasn't much to say while he's under the teacher's watch- ful eyes, but just wait until they turn their head. I have heard it said that he likes best to stay at home and toot his trumpet Florabelle Schena Active or inactive Florabelle is one swell girl and always ready to lend a hand. Quiet most of the time she would take advan tage of an opportunity and work in a snappy comeback. Mary Louise Schindler A tall, slender blonde who has that friendly smile for every- one, Mviry Louise receives the flowers for being one of the sweet' est girls in our class. Max Schwartz So far as we know, Max is not susceptible to feminine charms, However, he still has plenty of time. Wfithout him the world would be a gloomy place. Bertha Seybert Bertha is one of those conscientious individuals who always has her work done, and one of those accomplished students who always has it done well. Tho' generally rather quiet, vou can hear her when there's an interesting bit of news to pass on. Sallie Marie Shockey There really isn't room for all we would like to say about Sallie. You'll know Sallie if you meet her. She has sparkling. brown eyes and very, very curly brown hair. Mildred Short Miss Powers certainly picked a group of efficient, capable girls to be her assistants. Among them was Mildred! She start- ed this year but now she knows the library as well as any student in school. Albert Skreber Albert is an authority on practically everything from A to Z, He has carved his niche in our Hall of Fame by studying once in a while. Albert has been a welcome addition to the class of '37. Esther Smalley When one sees Esther she seems rather quiet. But iust wait until someone starts her talkingg she can hardly be stopped. Have you noticed her eyes-beautiful, I should say. Page twenty four

SENIORS Doris Van Alstine This tiny blonde is an optimistic sort of person, always cheer- ing us up when we are down in the dumps. She has a nice voice. too-one that fairly sings the joys of living and being a part of this great world. Dorothy Caroline Vollmar Someone should write Carole's biography. It would be filled to the brim with her smiles and chuck full of events from her busy life. Much of the success of our Hiltop is due to her, for she is our Art Editor. Jean Weingand Here we have a girl who has good-sized ideas but they are almost entirely hidden. Although she seems timid, when she's called upon she proves herself to be capable and jolly. Isabella Welsh Another Scotchman and proud of it. Well, who wouldn't be? Anyone who knows Ibby', would surely be the first to lay claims on her as a real friend. Floyd West Happy-go-lucky, carefree, irresponsible youth, Floyd proves that it isn't too hard to get through high school. Anyway, why rake Life too seriously? George Whalen George must really like school. He has to walk 314 miles to come-and even on rainy days his desire for learning over- comes his desire for comfort and he shows up. sopping wet, but quite happy Fox hunting is a great sport of his. Helen Wilson Here,s one girl who has set her purpose in life and is attempt- ing to attain it. She believes gentlemen don't prefer blondes. Well, we wonlt make any predictions but she has a good start. Marjorie Winkler Margie is gifted with one of the most coveted feminine traitsg she has nimble fingers that can sew a straight seam and make a good-looking button hole. But this isnlt the only way she is gifted which is proved by her many friends. Billie Young A real Home Ec. shark with a dandy personality. Never get the idea that a good cooku isn't popular. Herels sufficient proof. Remember, she was a candidate in the queen contest, with a good number of votes to her credit. Demova Young Not for herself but for the world she lives. Demova is kind- ness personified. She seems not at all concerned about the fast pace of this hurried world around her, but takes her time and does things thoroughly. Page twentv six
