Rebecca Isabel Pultz Carl Augustus Stiedtman Chorus, ’28- ' 29. “O gentle manner, unaffected mind, lover of peace, and friend of human- kind.” There is not enough we can say for good- hearted “Issy, who is always ready to lend a helping hand. Being a practical and effi- cient worker, she always tries to get the best out of life and make herself one whom we all enjoy. Margaret McKee Lackey Toreadors, ’26; Chorus, ’26- ' 29; Basket- ball, ’26-’28; The; Crystal Staff, ’29; Man- ager of Chorus, ’29; Senior Play, ’29. “She hath a lean and hungry look.” We present for your approval, “Bob,” and approve you certainly will, because she is one of our most outstapding leaders in all school activities. As the leader of the cho- rus, or “Maud” in the senior play, we see her natural ability and her willingness to help. Ole L. H. S. will never forget you, “Bob.” Harry Waldon Bosserman Cheer leader, ’29 ; Hall of Fame, ’29. “A wit with dunces, and a dunce with wits.” “Ah! I am shocked.” Would you believe it, here’s Harry our class clown, whose un- limited source of jokes and tricks makes our school life just one big laugh after another. One who is so elastic that he can draw him- self up with one hair, is of course our cheer leader. All together, let’s give a Siren, yell for Harry. Levina Anderson Mahane Anne Smith Scholarship, ’26 ; Executive Committee, ’27; The Crystal Staff, ’28-’29; EeJw Staff, ’28-’29; Basketball. ’26-’29 ; Manager basketball, ’29; News Editor Echo, ’29; Chorus, ’29; Stage Manager Senior Play, ’29 ; Hall of Fame, ’29 ; Editor-in- Chief The Crystal, ’29. “Nothing great was ever achieved with- out enthusiasm.” “Red” is one of the best known of our class. Besides having the credit of being the most dependable an,d accommodating, she has also won for herself honor of Editor of The Crystal. Her courage, will power and kindly interest make her a friend whose de- parture we regret. Executive Committee, ’26 ; Echo Staff, ’28 ; The Crystal Staff, ’28; Manager of Basketball, ’29; Senior Play, ’29; Hall of Fame, ’29. “Excuse his devilish ways.” Here’s the perpetual tormentor, who pro- vokes many a smile with his humorous re- marks on all subjects not found in, books. We couldn’t do without Carl to shorten the day. So here’s to that fountain of original re- marks a hearty wish of good luck. Margaret Louise Moses Executive Committee, ’28; Basketball, ’28- ’29; Echo Staff, ’29; Chorus, ’28-’29; Senior Play ’29; Captain Girls’ Basketball, ’29; Hall of Fame, ’29. “Come and trip it as you go, on the light fantastic toe.” Stop I Look ! Listen ! Here’s “Mose,” one of the most beloved of our class, who won the vote of being the friendliest and best natured, not to mention her athletic and dramatic ability. We hate to part with you, “Mose.” Julia Whitten Dodson Basketball, ’28-’29; Hall of Fame, ’29; Chorus, ’28-’29; Editor-in-Chief of Echo, ’29. “A quenchless star, forever bright.” We need no introduction to Julia. Her abundant amount of school spirit in boosting every cause makes her well known. In two years’ time she gained first place as Editor of the Echo and a leading part in the senior play. Such a rare combination of spirit and determination is seldom found. Good luck, Julia. Keep it up. Marshall Okie Hostetter Senior Play, ’29. “Short but sweet, for inches do not make the man.” When we first met “Toby,” two years ago, we wondered why children were allowed to come to High School, but we soon learned that he was sent to amuse the class and serve as a target for the older boys. We couldn’t have done without you, “Toby.” Best wishes for a happy life. [ 13 ]
