Prescott Underwood:—(Football ’16, ’17; Boys’ Club ’16, ’17, '18; Secretary Senior Class ’18.) life’s the king- o’ guid fellows.” “Pete” is the very personification of what a football hero should be. He is big—about 200 lbs. big—and when he prances out on the field every opponent trembles. “Pete” doesn't care anything about the other sex—except one of them. Lillian Mayer:—(Tennis ’17; Y. W. C. A. ’18; Chairman “Fats” Com- mittee Senior Class.) It Is good to lengthen to the last a sunny mood.” Lillian spent her Sophomore days in Omaha High School. However, she showed how wise she was by coming back to us again. Her rosy cheeks and good nature have won many friends for her. Her specialty is tennis, which she plays to perfection. She will go to K. U. next year. Virginia Beery:—(Y. W. C. A.: Aesthetic Dancing ’17.) Her ways are ways of quietness. Altho Virginia is seemingly ouiet, you should have seen her in the Senior Girls’ Circus. She will be on the Hill next year, which makes us very glad. Nellie Lynn:—(Tennis ’17; Basketball ’17, ’18; Knitting Club ’18.) If learning could keep a woman alive, she would outlive Methusalah. Nellie, with her great achievements in the line of knowledge, is another credit to the Class of '18. Altho she may not have received an L, she certainly deserves honorable mention. Emma Olson:—(Home Economics Club ’ 16; Normal Training.) Her ways are ways of pleasantness. Emma is one of our quietest girls but, as the saying goes, “Still waters lun deep.” She intends to teach little papooses reading and writing and arith- metic next year. We know that her pupils will all love her as her High School friends do. Eunice Artman:— Her heart as far from fraud as heaven from earth. Not only has Eunice undergone the usual course of knowledge in L. H. S., but she has also developed an electrical turn of mind to the delight of Hienie, who never tires of relating her exploits at Kent in that line. Cassie Taylor:—(Y. W. C. A.; Debating Club ’18; Aesthetic Dancing '18; Normal Training.) ‘‘She Is want to speak plain and to the purpose.” Cassie is one girl, at least, who can talk something else besides nonsense, as you would know if you ever ventured forth to debating. She is a good worker and a willing one. Georce Stevenson:—(Football ’18.) I know not of his brains, but his body hath great size. “Big Steve” evidently has brains or it would not have been possible for him to get a perfectly good diploma. George is a good sport and when it comes to real football he shines.
