BETTY BLAUVELT How often we have seen this bright, vivacious miss in our midst. She may not look like a dignified senior. but she is. Betty is not to go out into the big business world to be just somebody's stenog's'l-oh no, she'll succeed in getting someth'ing bigger and better. Well, B , when you have attained the success and fame that surely awaits you, please don't forget the class of 1930. HERBERT C. BOSTWICK Glee Club 2, 3, 4-Q French Clubg Congressg General Council, Assembly Committeeg Chorus 1, 2, 3, 4. This fine young gentleman desires to become an aviator, but first he desires an education. The gates of Cornell are open to this chap as well as to many others. Some day we may arrive at the Ithaca airport and Find Herb the chief engineer. I am quite sure that we would receive the best service possible from him. With a sing- ing voice like Herb's the class certainly believes that it would carry him on with his work. EDNA A. BOTSFORD French Club 3, 4, President 43 Student Council 3. 4, Vice President 45 Legislative Assembly 3, 45 Vice Presi- dent 4g Traflic Officer 3, 4g Varsity Basketball 2, 3, 4, Class Historian 4, Assembly Committee. Everyone knows Eddie'sl' famous smile. When you hear a chuckle and an explosion, don't worry. Something just struck Edna funny. On the Basketball floor Edna has proved her ability as a forward. She is in every play and always fighting. We wonder why Eddie sup- ports Boys' Basketball? Well, maybe she will tell us some day. We sure hope you have the best of luck on the hill, Eddie . RACHEL L. BLOSTEIN Art Club 45 Science Club 2, Tennis 2, Soccor 3, Archery 4, Spring Concert 43 Kathleen 25 Senior Frolic 4. Perhaps you will not believe it but it is really Rae. After four short years Rae is leaving our famous school to seek more knowledge on the hillf' Rae may look shv but appearances are sometimes deceiving. She has a very pleasing personality especially to tall, dark, handsome boys from Jerry Co. Her favorite pastime is motoring in Packard roadsters and stopping in Syracuse on the way. Well, Rae, here's luck to your future conquests on the hill. l2ll

DAVID BENNER Senior Orchestrag Ensemble, Bandg Tattlerg Business Managerg Cross Country Teamg Track Teamq Traflic officer, Ring and Pin Committee, Thanksgiving Concerts. Roll call. Where is Benner? He is either working on the Tattler, Traflic force or has Band. Dave is always busy. After a year at North Columbus, Dave has re- turned to graduate from Ithaca High. This proved to be a lucky break for the Tattler for Dave played an im- portant part in the success of that paper. As a mainstay of the Cross Country and Track teams Dave has been the source of many points. With Dave's record in this institution we have little to fear of his success as a Hotel CARL VVESLEY B1sHoP On Shore and Sea 2. Well girls, it looks as if Carl was going to leave us at last. He has been with us so long QU that we have grown used to seeing him looking with longing doyvn that North corridor. What for? I don't knowg neither does Carl. But, after all, Carl is a good fellow and we hope he will succeed in his attempts to take a degree away from the Heights of Cornell. Well, so long, Carl. Manager on the Hill next fall. KENNE'I'H BENNETT Here is the original Shadow Man! Little is known of his past or of his plans for the future, but from his vocabulary of technical terms, it is expected that he will follow the leadership of Guglielmo Marconi and Lee De Forest. Since his graduation from cranking Fords he has advanced to the more dignified pastime of easing a 400 about the streets of our fair city. If his pros- pects in the future are as bright as the polish on his car, Ken is certainly due for a most happy and successful career. l20 JOHN J. BISHOP Congress 4g Track 4g Football 1, 45 Hockey 2, 33 Five Year Club, On Shore and Seag Wreck of the Hesperusg Hero and Leanderg Senior Frolic. Itls a tough break for the school but '4Bish simply has to graduate. How will the teachers get along with- out him? -Iohn himself says that someone has to see that the teachers earn their pay. Believe me, his teachers certainly deserve all they get. Four years from now a picture of Johnny will appear in the year book of the University of Indianna. He intends to pursue a course in journalism, and we know he'll be a success. We hope for his sake that there's a co.-ed in Indianna that's as nice as the little blond at Sage.

EMELIA BRABLC Science Club 2, King Renels Daughter, On Shore and Sea. Oh, oh! Believe it or not, this studious young Miss actually left us in january. It seems as if half the school's gone, this term, without her. Rumors are Hying around that Millie expects to enter Cornell, where she will learn to boil water without burning it. Oh, yeah! The best wishes of the Senior Class go with you, Emelia. OSMER JAMES BROOKS Congress 3, 4, Clerk 43 Baseball 2, 3, 43 On Shore and Sea 2. Girls! There'S just a bundle of charms wrapped up in his arms, that's why welre jealous of him. During Osmer's four short years he has made many friends and has also been prominent in several school activities. The reference above, girls, was to Pete's pitching arm which he has used with remarkable success, eh, Pierce? Let's all hope that Osmer comes back to us after he has finished his work at the State Teachers' College. Well, Pete, the Senior Class will follow your success through- out your career. ROBERT D. Glee Club 1, 2, 3, 43 Band 1, ELETT BROOKS Basketball 2, 33 Cross Country 4, Track 2, 3, 4. Rowdy Dow! Look what the wind blew in. Years ago this quiet QFD boy came to I. H. S. from the hill. After many years he seems to think it is time to leave us. Has anybody ever seen Elett down on Percy Field, running away from everybody in the quarter and half mile? Even in the Fall he is chasing over hill and dale after some great friend of the fairer sex. But putting all fooling aside, we wish him a successful and happy future. BROOKS 2, 3, Orchestra 1, 2, 3, 43 l22l Itheteria 4, Science Club 3, 4, Congress 4, Student Council 4g Dramatic Club 2, 3, 4, Hockey 3, 4. Here we are gazing at the Visage of the President of the Dramatic Club, Leader of the Klee Klup, etc. etc. Being the leader of many of the clubs in the school seems to be an Old Spanish Custom of Bobls. Everything and everybody prospers under his able rule. After de- feating Caesar, downing Cicero, and foxing Virgil, Bob has at last called quits to the whole business and de- cided to grace the campus at Hamilton. Ta-Ta, old fruit, be good.
