FRED H. ALBRIGHT Freshman Playg League Basketballg Varsity Basketball 43 Annual Reporter 4-g Senior Frolicg Spring Concert 43 Hi-y 3, 4, Vice-President 4. This space is entirely too small to go into detail about Dick . But there is no reason why he should need any lengthy explanation. Every one knows him and why shouldnit they? He it is who takes a back seat for no one, especially in the class room, where he will invar- iably be found near the front. Although he is only six- teen he is ready to leave his friends and classmates of four years. JAMES W. ALLEN This husky, rosy cheeked lad of three-fourths score of years is now facing the world as a graduate of Ithaca High. He claims no honors. What say you? He has served his Alma Mater as traffic copllg helping to regulate the wandering, weary tread of hungry, knowl- edge seeking souls. A great and expansive future looks down to this young man, who will become a Civil En- gineer at Cornell. Good luck, -lim . BERTHA ALTSCHULER Spring Concert 1, 2, 3, 4, Kathleen 3, Basketball 1, 2, 35 Volly Ball 1, 2g Baseball 2, Field Hockey 2, Sen- ior Stunts. Everybody stop! Can't you see who is approaching you? Well, it is Bertha. Bert walks around these halls with a stern face and one would think she was worrying about her lessons, but thatis just her way. She is a good sport and laughs when she wants to, but she believes in Business before Pleasure. Bert can't decide whether to take vocal or piano but, whatever she does, we will all be there to hear her make her debut. ROBER'1' ANDREWS Glee Club 3, 4, 5, Spring Concert 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, Senior Stunts, Five Year Club. Hey-did-ja ever hear this one?'l 'tMark Antony'sl' name was on the black list and we celebrated by elect- ing him President of the Five Year Club. Except for the noisy section of the library and the alarming sounds in the corridors of I can't give you anything but D D Tue-Doo , Andy has been rather a quiet boy Cabout schoolj. However, he is in his element only after dark, and the unanimous wish of the class is-that he will al- ways remain the snakiest among those present at Pop Smithls. i231

ALICE MARY BARB ER The most astonishing thing about this young lady is the fact that she is graduatin ,Gin three years. Believe me, this is all the concrete ecfs to understand the determination of Alice. M r , ' gaze on her calm countenance it is impossible to believe that at the end of those dainty linger tips lies the touch of a musi- cian. It is known that a long suffefing neighbor at length contemplated suicide. But, putting allijwcing aside, the class of '29 'give her their best wishes imlher musical career. OLGA RITA BARINA Here is Olga. She has been with us but a small part of these four years, but we have followed her progress at the Conservatory and are proud that she is one of us. Everyone knows that the violin is her career, and with the aid of her natural talent and a charming personality, Olga can't help but continue to win friends and be a grand success in the field of music. Good luck, Olga. ELIZABETH ANN BARRUS Spring Concert 2, 3, 4g Tennis Z3 Varsity Hockey Team 25 Varsity Basketball Squad 4g Le Cercle Francais 45 Choral Club 4, Tattler Board 4, Annual Board, Art Editor 4, Cheerleader 4, Senior Stunts 49 Traihc Othcer 2, 4, Five Year Club. How did we all rate this book with Bee as Art Editor? Although Cleopatra left us last year to give the natives a treat in Porto Rico, she came back to re- sume her duties as one of the original prom-trotters' about the Cliffs of Beebe . Betty has done everything from decorating blackboards to leading cheers, choruses and what not? We know that f'Betsy's contagious grin will win her an Army of friends, whether as an artist on the hill or Pointfsj Westu. FRANCES E. BATTERSON Student Council 1, 2, 3, Dramatic Club, 3, 4, Legislative Assembly 3, 45 Class Oratorg Senior Stunt. Greater love hath no man than this, that he listen to other peoples' troubles without turning a hair, and Frances is equally ready to congratulate and to condole. Her quick, eager interest in everything has won her a host of friends, all of whom will be proud, when they see her name blossom forth in footlights, to recall that they knew her when . It is scarcely possible, however, that this will make up for losing her! i251
