JAMES BURKE “Jimmy’ ' is president of the senior class and of the Athletic Association. He has a streak of stubborn- ness in his makeup which is apt to get him into trouble at times. James used to be bashful as a little freshman but this is gradally disappearing. WILLIAM BURKE “Billy” is the handsomest boy in the class but “handsome is as handsome does” and Billy is rather a pest as everyone is willing to testify. He has al- ways made it a point to disagree with everyone else in class meeting for, to quote Billy himself, “What is a class meeting for if not to argue?” BERNICE CONNOR Bernice is one of the Commercial pupils. Her favorite subject is typewriting, but somehow she always seems to be getting into trouble in there. The week is very rare when we do not see Bernice wan- deiing toward the office in the middle of the type- writing period. ANITA DANIELS Anita, quite in keeping with her title of class saint, is very quiet and demure. She is the treasurer of the class of 1923 and is very conscientious in this work as in all other. 11

PERSONAL HISTORY WITH PICTURES EVELYN BAMFORD Here’s “Bant” the hustler of the class, talks slang a mile a minute, and is always late for classes. Al- though not given the title of “Class Bluffer” she comes in a close second. She is leader of the “Girls’ Glee Club” and an indispensable member of the school orchestra. Besides being skilled in foreign languages, she is also a marked essayist. JULIUS BEAN “Beanie” is one of our hard working classmates (there are very few) and is going to enter Harvard next fall. He should make quite a Rah, rah boy. Beanie is a good actor and did great work in the senior play and is besides a line violinist. RUTH BROWN What should we do without Ruth ? She plays the piano in chapel and can always pound out the latest jazz at a minute’s notice. Many are the times she has played for us at class socials. She is a jolly, pleasant girl and well liked by everyone. HELEN BRUCE “Brucie” is one of our merriest classmates. She has a very sweet tooth and recess usually finds her haunting the vicinity of the candy room. She is very generous, so needless to say, she is very popular. 10

LEO DONDERO Here’s the class athlete. Dondero is a fine all- round athlete and captained a good football team last fall and an equally good baseball team this spring. He has so many “M’s” that it is impossible to count them. Donny is rather quiet but otten amuses the senior English class with his dry, humorous remarks. PHYLLIS GIRARD “Phil” is one of our happiest pals. She wears a smile that nothing seems able to wipe off. She is very — er slight and no one would be surprised if she disapr eared through the keyhole some day. How- ever, we hope this won’t happen, for she helps to brighten dull days. RUTH GILDAY Here we have the class wit. True to this name, Ruth has many witty things to say. She seems to be rather fond of chemistry since she has taken it two years, and we find it surprising that the place has not been blown up. JONATHAN HALL Our future bank president — Mr. Hall. He and Albert between them used to make things hum but now Jonny has deserted us to work in the National Bank. We expect great things of him in the future. 12
