Nil? MARTIN C. BESEMER MODERN LANGUAGE League Basketball 2, 3, 5g Home Room Collector 43 Traf- fic Officer 3. Well, now would you believe it? After four or more f?J years of diligent labor Martin has decided to leave us. Besemer's name has frequently graced the honor roll. In spite of this handicap he has won many friends, especially Cicero, and the north side of the hall also offers admirers. Well, the Senior Class wishes him the best of success in whatever walk of life he may choose. WILLIAM MAX BESEMER MODERN LANGUAGE Sherman Memorial Loan Fund 2, 3, 4g Science Club 4. Did you want to- go to camp? No!! Well, then, what have you lost, your pen or your locker key. Sure! of course I'll look for it. You know life is filled with such petty things. Someone asked Bill what the hardest mystery was that he ever solved.

There he will pre- pare himself better to fill a job as an Engineer. The class of 1931 wishes him every success. ELEANORA CATHERINE BOHACH COMMERCIAL Something unusual has happened. Eleanora has Hnally succeeded in tearing away from her studies to graduate. Without doubt the business department of our Alma Mater will be sad at the departure of Eleanora, who excels in anything that suggests commercialism. The class of '31 Wishes you success in your profession, Eleanora. Twenty-foe

Here is just another sweet girl graduate who has twittered her way through High School. She has abil- ity, strictly confined to skiing expeditions, scholastic abil- ity, maintained through the liberal use of a Virgil trot, and vocal ability, at least she doesn't scare MacPherson. At noon Ruthie can always be found at the Home Dairy, leisurely consuming soup and pie a' la mode. Good luck at Wells, Ruthie. Ticerzty-fozfr' Har FRANCES L. BARTHOLOMEW MODERN LANGUAGE Valley Ball 1, Sauer lg Archery 2, League Basketball 1g Srience Club 3, 4. Good things come in small packages. During her High School career Fran has accomplished much in her own quiet CH way. She expects to enter Cornell in September, there to learn how to boil water without burning it. Let's hope they use Armstrong'l stoves. But, nevertheless, whatever she does, we hope her path will be Chuck full of success.

There goes pep, vim, and vigor! In other words there goes 'lBev. High school is going to miss that cheery smile and hearty laugh. Bev was one of our stars in basketball. She is a talented dancer, and with opportunity we know she could make good. Keep it up, Bev ! The class of '31 extends its best wishes to you.
