Mildred Bainbridge Harry Bergman Bud Chorus 4 Milly Milly could usually be seen with her in- separable pal, Mutt Groendyk. The two girls were as close as Damon and Pythias. Her favorite subject was Social Arts in which she excelled. Her shy and retiring manner won her many friends during her high school career. Lumps had one desire greater than gradu- ation and that was to get his till ot pumpkin pie, His peculiar sense ot humor was a con- stant source ot amusement to his classmates and sometimes a greater source of embarrass- ment to Lumps.

His one desire has been to graduate so that he might be allowed to take the dairying course at Michigan State. Bud was always a hard Worker and generous contributor to the class and its activities. A gentleman of extremes was l.B. His vocabulary Was a continual surprise to his teachers. His one weakness was in the matter of his attire. I.B. was an energetic Worker, and an excellent class president. None ot us will ever forget his business-like method ot conducting Senior meetings. ohn William Borst Hi-Y 4: Lespedra 4 Pro and Con 4: Stu- dent Council 4: Presi dent Senior Class. HJ B ,-

Alyce had no regular nickname but it should have been self-evident. Public Speaking class brought to light her outstanding characteristic. Active in extra-curricular activities, probably the highlight of her high school career was in learning how to Walk in character for the Iunior Play. Marve's quick temper drove him to the accomplishment of many things others thought impossible. He earned the Left End position on the football team during his Senior year. Spring-time for Susie, the Iunior Play, showed Marve at his best.

Aww '-Bobby So efficient Was Bobby that every organi- zation of which she was a member was con- tinually calling on her for assistance. She at- tended the N.S.P.A. convention in Cleveland as a delegate from The Echo. Her unfortu- nate accident during her Iunior year gave her one ambition - to keep out of hospitals. Shy, quiet Tag had two interests in high school. One was her trumpet playing in the band, the other was in the sports in Which she took an active part. Her classmates predict that she will either be another Babe Didrickson or else a member of Phil Spitalny's all-girl orchestra. Marvin Brower Pro and Con 23 Mauve Leona M.
