THE 1937 COMMENT Class Will of l937 We, the class of '37, realizing that many of our talents and charming mannerisms will be greatly missed, have been persuaded to leave them in the care of those we leave behind. To the Junior Class as a whole we leave all the gum that is under the desks, chairs, and assembly seats. That is, they may use it--if they can get it oil. Larl john Adams bequeathes his executive ability to John Hiram Wil- son. Bette Banghart wills her position as most conceited and yet most popular girl in her class to Agnes Kane. Ray Bangbart leaves Betty Lou in the arms of James Dietrich. Be gentle with her, please. Nlilton Barbe relinquishes the mistaken letter from Mtlscatine to Robert Heineman. Milton says that the letter really meant for him probably was the best, so he'll keep that for himself. Dorothy Barnes agreed to leave her position as End-man in the Min- strel to Grace Nelson. Youlll have to give it all you've got to be as good as Dorothy. Lola Beaty and Louise Ballard leave their A's in Chemistry to Doris Stice and Helen Renard. blary Berryhill bestows her blushes on Lois Biddenstadt. Try not getting too red when Mr. Wright talks about flames -fthe Chemistry kindj. Leo Bevard intrusts his job at the Nifti Thrift to Morris Cloud. Maxine Bick leaves her elieminate ways and long curls to Mary Ruth Guess. Mary Ruth is shockingly boyish. Lucile Bickel leaves her knack of going with her best girl friend's brother to janet Brinker. Dorras Biddenstadt with much reluctance confers upon Doris Swan her trim figure. Maxine Biddenstadt wills her formula for keeping tiny to Lenace An- derson. lf Lenace gets any bigger the school will have to get a special desk for her to have in study halls. Ray Bierman, with a wistful look in his dark eyes, agreed to leave his carefree glass blowing days of night school to Lloyd Cooper. lone Brewer bequeaths her knack of cutting stencils to Carrie Burkhardt. Shirley Brown wills his '38 C1838j Chevrolet to Marcia Madoleg just to get away from the bicycle, Marcia. To Ardath Wellington goes Josephine Carder's quiet reserved ways. Margaret Carey leaves her trips to the Salvation Army after the Girl Reserve pot-luck suppers to Helen Bender, so she won't have to be on clean- up committee, and also so that she can have the last bite of food. Charles Chesser leaves his two stripes and curly hair to Alan Criswell, so he won't have to go out for athletics to get some stripes and so that he won't have to get a permanent. To Evelyn Rosencrans goes Harriet Collier's small black earmuffs. Now your ears will always be just a delicate pink shade instead of rosie. TWENTY-SEVEN

THE 1937 COMMENT Louise Collins leaves her warm smile to Doris Kerns. Louise Cox wills her out of town boy friend to Nellie Kampe. Now you've got a boy friend too, Nellie. Quinby Crenshaw leaves his cookie duster to Ray Eller. You'll look more like Clark Gable than ever now, Ray, and think what an attraction that will be for the girls. Don Dannan bequeathes his ability to always seem wide-awake to Lester Salzer. ls our coach easily fooled? Hugh Davis bestows his stage managing days upon Robert Thrap. Ruth Dietz gives up her sewing problems to Dorothy Vaughan. Ruthie is hopeful of spending her days darning socks and cooking wienies. Ruth Dillon leaves her giggles to Ruth Trump, who she is sure will not neglect them. Ralph Dobson leaves his recipe for making Ere extinguisher Huid in care of Floyd Cramer. Dorothy Donnelly leaves her stand in with Miss Simmons to Ruth Cockrell. Charles Driver wills his stars and stripes to Junior Freeman who will have to work hard to live up to them. Lois Dumenil was too busy keeping track of her steady CChicJ to say what she cared to part with-someone is bound to be disappointed in this news. Betty Duncan and Sid Simpson leave their wooden love seat in Study B to Doris Baldwin and Ernest Roach. Wade Ensminger wills his place in the Gym Exhibit to James Tuttle. They won't be able to do without you now, Jim. Floyd Evans has nothing to will because he just wouldn't give up his beloved nickname of Pud, and he wants to take his Correspondence Course in Trig. with him. Nuel Feldman leaves her reputation as most talked about girl to Grace Brackett. Grace already has a good start. jim Ferris wills his reputation for managing to be the first in every foot- ball game to be laid out to Earl Haase. Mary Eloise Fields bestows upon Betty Roberts her exotic beauty. To Marian Sizemore goes Mae Franks very, very generous ways. Leonard French leaves his appearance in the Buick to George Jones, who makes more of an appearance anyhow. George Galloway and Charles Odell leave their reputations as the great lovers of our dear Alma Mater to Bill Fiedler and Ed Goez. Dorothy Gambrel leaves her liking of Coupes to Marjorie High. But get your own boy for the coupe-Dorothy says you can't have her's. David Gill leaves his job as football manager to someone who likes to wash socks. Maybe Leroy Sale-huh? john Glascock wills his bicycle to James Bartholomew. John has grad- uated to the Fliver Age. Margaret Hanson wills her way of getting around a certain A. Lit. teacher to Irma Benson. TWENTY-EIGHT
