HERVEY VICTOR IVICNALLY flrrmv Business Staff 4: Arrow Literary Staff 4: Glee Club 4. Here's a boy who likes fresh air, we know, for he's never satis- fied until every window is wide open.

Every one likes Hervey: the boys appreciate him because of his humorous good nature, and the girls cast sly glances at him because of his curly blond hair. HENRY MINARDI Henry's not as quiet as he appears to be. At least we know his Sunday nights are occupied! He's the good-looking lad who non- chalantly strolls into Room D every school morning just before 8:30. He helped out in the library this year and did a good job at it, too. We often wonder where be gets those puzzling ques- tions he asks Prof. While Prof. is distraught, Henry is chuckling. Remember, Minnie, Life is just one big bubble!
