Class of nineteen sixteen •5A£GA550 MADGE BECRAFT— Madge is plump and so com- fortable-looking. She displays great skill in dress- ing her abundant blonde locks. Madge distin- guished herself and surprised her enemies by get- ting K in Knglish the first six weeks, and it has stimulated her to greater effort. Her only fault is that she uses Melba powder. CHARLES BEECHINC— Tod is big enough to lick anybody in school. Luckily he hasn ' t the ambition to do it. He is always to be found in the halls surrounded by a bunch of smiling fe- males. His one worry is that he can never find any pumps dainty enough to suit his fastidious taste. Oh, yes, and he likes anything good to eat. RUTH BITTERS— We was a little girl she wa of Little Eva in Lncle that ng pt abin. ihcn Ruth bonification She has an innocent air and a captivating lisp most unusual nowadays. Ruth ' s complexion is the em the other girl — and it will not rub off either. CEDRIC BOGUE — Bogie was so ambitious to make his way in the world that he left us in Jan- uary and started in to accomplish his desire. He has always been a boy of creat judgment and common sense; he even took a year or so of Latin. We predict be will be the advance agent of a big moi ie concern. FRANK BRl l ' Frank is our tall broad-shouldered Suede, who is noted for his athletic inclinati i - Frank ' s chief diversion i throwing paper-wads in the assembly when he isn ' t studying. Hi hard feelings toward the faculty, it maj for he has never been known to turn his loose on them.

.5ARGA550 Class of nineteen sixteen LEONARD APPLETOX— Apple is just as indus- trious as he looks, and is a fitting model to head the senior list. He never has quite outgrown his freshman shyness, and as for girls — we ' d faint if we saw him talking to one. But he can attend to his own business — mav his tribe increase. XOEL BAUER — Xoel is easily recognized by his suave manner and extremely sleek pompadour. He recites with an air of calm resignation, especially in German. (He is one of the two boys in the class.) The young gentleman has never been known to have a fondness for the weaker sex, but there ' s plenty of time yet. MYRLE BAIR — Myrle came to our midst a stranger, but she can hold her own with the native- born senior beauties. She seems to be mighty pop- ular with every one, boys, too. (Xo names men- tioned.) She is a star member of Miss Roberts ' English grammar class. GINEVRA BARXGROYER — Ginevra is best known as Vernice ' s accomplice. They can truth- fully be called the inseparable compound, as our green-backed grammar doth term it. Ginevra has a remarkable dislike for work which causes us to wonder how she manages to get on the honor list. YERX1CE BAYNE — When any information, from a forecast of the weather to the latest fashion hint is wanted, Yernice is right there. She is one of the famous South Side bunch who have mustered up enough credits to graduate. She has a sunny smile which never fails to win friends for her.

5A£GA550 Class of nineteen sixteen MARY BRUNER— Did you ever see a light-haired girl with Yianna? That ' s Mary. Her histrionic ability is undisputed, as she was not only a charm- ing Dutch girl, but was later a stunning society lady as well. She is one of Mr. Bennett ' s right hand crew and is an all-around good girl. GERALDINE BURNS— Jerry left our happy community last fall, to try her hand in the com- mercial world, but has returned now. She dis- tinguished herself as a leader, when she managed her class last year. She was one of Prof. Har- rell ' s prize botanical students. (?) KARLENE CAIN — Karlene has been famous ever since the first day she was in high school and Mr. Haworth called her Car-line Cain! She is not only a heart-breaker, but makes excellent fudge. She is as bright as Venus, but any one who has ever been in her classes knows she doesn ' t like to be contradicted. EDMUND CRITCHLOW— Ed is the most typi- cal boy in our class. He is the best-hearted chap you ever saw and is plum full of fun. He brought down the house on a class-play tryout day by reciting a Shakespearian sonnet whose meaning was too deep to grasp. Ed ' s main requirements for a wife are that she be pretty, and be able to make good candy. LULU CAMPBELL— Lulu is one whom we have loved and lost, but only for the present. Her mod- esty, her genial good humor, her love of fair play, and appreciation of higher culture were the chief reasons for her many friendships. There is no one who will ever take her place among us.
