Mary Miller “Each dainty footstep brought her closer to our hearts.” Mary, a sweet petite lass with diamonds in her eyes, has put a spark of joy into our classes.

Henry Morgan “The old wind woke and moaned in the spars And the same old waves went by.” Henry joined us in our sophomore year and was soon well-known and liked because of his warm smile and hearty laugh.

Although Henry left us during the year to join the Air Force, we welcomed him back to graduate with us in June. Mary O ' Brien “Labor conquers everything.” Mary, the editor of the “Tiger” and “Cub”, was one of the busiest members of the class.
