Preston White:—(Track ’15, ’17; Student Council ’16, ’17; Athletic Editor Budget 17, ’18; Football ’18; President Class ’18; Athletic Editor Annual.) “!-----------? $ s S” Many and varied have his successes been during his High School years. “Pete” takes up athletics as he feels the need and then for the sake of variety he adds the Student Council or Senior presidency to the list. The quotation above this paragraph describes him fully. Dorothy Stanley:—(Prom Manager and Pianist, M. H. S. Orchestra, 17; Y. W. C. A. ’18; Honor Student.) ller hair is not sunnier than her heart Dorothy came to us from Marccline, Missouri, this year. Slfe immediately won many friends among the boys as well as the girls. We expect her to be one of the popular girls on the Hill next year. Josephine Ramsey:—Basketball ’15, ’16, ’17, ’18. The same sweet child of fancy. The same dear winsome lass. “Jo’s” speciality is playing basketball. In fact you might say she is a vet- eran in the cause since she helped win the championship for us all during her High School days. One of the basketball girls is quoted as saying, “When Jo plays basketball we all stand around and wonder.” Jessie Martin dale :—(Girls’ Glee Club ’15, ’16, ’17; O’ita Secretary r 15, Vice President ’16, and President ’17, ’18; Student Council ’15, Secretary ’16, Vice President ’16; Manager Junior Military Party ’17; Debating Team ’17, ’18; Y. W. C. A. President ’18, Cabinet ’17; Scholarship Cup ’17; Vice President of Class ’18; Commencement Program ’18; Honor Student; Manager Senior Girls’ Circus ’18.) Blessed are they who have the gift of making friends. Jessie is one of the “best fellows” in L. H. S. She’s great on oratory and uses it to good advantage in making her gains. She’s always been one of our most brilliant and popular students and when she enters K. U. next year we are sure that she’ll make good, especially as “Sergeant” in the military training division. Marion Oatman:— (Y. W. C. A. ’18; Basket Ball ’18; Glee Club ’18.) It's guld to he merry and wise. It's guid to la honest and true. Marion, in her own way, has been one of the strong members of the class. Anyone asking her to do anything, was sure of results, and good ones. Helen Ruth Gumbiner:—(Glee Club ’14; Social Committee ’16, ’17, ’18; Class Secretary ’17; Student Council ’18; Senior English Class Play ’18.) She is pretty to walk with. And witty to talk with, .. And pleasant, too, to think on. Dimples are the handmaidens of “cases.” At least Helen Ruth’s are, for she has managed to procure one case each year since she has been with us. She has shown fine dramatic ability in the Senior English Class Play as well as other school farces. We are glad that she will be with us in K. U. next year. Roberta Gorsuch:—(Orchestra ’15, ’16; Local Editor Budget ’17; “Yarns” Editor ’18; Chairman O’ita Program Committee ’18; O’ita Budget Re- porter '18; Y. V. C. A. ’18; Associate Editor Annual ’18; Aesthetic Dancing ’18.) Here’s to the gill that is good- and sweet, Here's to the girl that is true. Roberta is a friend to everyone and wouldn't be angry at a person for worlds. “It isn’t worth the trouble it takes,” she says. The person who writes the “Yarns” column for the Budget next year will need sympathy. It is going to be mighty hard work writing “Yarns” as good as Roberta’s. Paul Luckan:—(L. H. S. Orchestra ’15, ’16, Manager ’17; Boys’ Club Orchestra ’16, ’17; Student Council ’17; President Student Council ’18; Boys’ Club Secretary ’18; Boys’ Club Minstrel ’18.) While Micro Is life, there is hope. “Pluky” is a happy sort of chap and wholly without that dignity in which most of the Student Council members clothe themselves. He divides his time be- tween school, a violin and a litter of Fords.
