SYLVIA JONES Siveeg | “Beneath quiet waters lie unsuspected depths.” y| Another quiet but earnest student, Sylvia is at home on a horse. It must be nice to have that wavy hair to be blown in the wind. From her writings we assume that she should pursue a literary career. : Committees 2. GEORGE KEARNS Cus “Freckles accompany good nature.” George, on the whole, isn’t very noisy—although he assoviates almost strictly with boys. He gets his recrea- tion in the winter through skating, in the summer through baseball. Baseball 1, 2, 3; Chorus 1. ’ tuk. BERNARD KELLY 7 le, “The fun in this world is what we can least afford to miss.” Bie Bennie, the Irishman in question, is another of our fast-moving athletes. Bennie is intensely loyal to the school; genial, untiring — he is truly a part of i. HLS. Football 1, 2; Basketball 1, 2; Yearbook 8; Athletic Club 3; Committees 3. ELEANOR KENNEY RED “The surest way not to fail 7: to determine to succeed.” We ean recall the days when Eleanor’s auburn hair hung in two braids down her back. Her colorful plaits now gone, well-groomed Eleanor is famed for her com- petence as a business woman. Remember the magazine drive ? Field Hockey 1, 2; Baseball 1, 2; Basketball 1, 2; Spotlight 3; Committees 3. HAROLD IAM AGRO WUE 75 We hereby dub (arm “the uckleberry Finn of 1940.” We don’t mean that he slings a gun over one shoulder and a rod over the other—during school time, but hunting and fishing certainly rate first as hobbies. Aviation Club 3. THOMAS KOINES : © Tommy “Life is not so short but what there is always time for courtesies,” Sure, Tommy’s quiet! He’s bashful, too. But that merely adds to his fine personality. Polite and reserved, Tommy always looks neat—even on the tennis courts. And he’s got courage—he studies Greek! Track 1; Baseball 2, 3; Basketball 3. SONNY richest fruits of IRVING LABES Irv “He taketh most delight in music.’ Recently Irving’s labor has demanded that he travel the town ‘en auto’’—a duty which to him is apparent- ly non-objectionable. Like Rubinoff and Benny, he saws away on his violin in idle moments. Soccer 2. : FRANK LAMBERT “Good nature is always remembered.” To avoid wear on his feet, good-natured Frank has taken to the saddle—the bike saddle. Sort of an Over- land Express in himself, he sees to it that the news- papers get where they’re going. [19 ]

No one with laughter in her orbs can be silent for long. ’Fess up, Hazel, you’re not always quiet, ave you? NORMAN HUEY Norm “T am no orator as Brutus is.” Norm’s versatile personality—his now solemn, now beaming countenance—has furnished us with many a hearty laugh. His conversational wit and his executive ability have won him popularity and respect.

MARY IOVINO “Hey acts are modest, her words discreet.” Not because Mary’s small is she quiet, b ut because she is reserved by nature. Her manner is entirely un- assuming. Without noise or fuss, she is working her way to the top. Spovlisht se Ov GaAs. JEAN IVESTER BUNNY “Sweet and lovely.” Charming Jean is that way about summer sports. She’s another ‘‘artiste du piano,” and frequently she plunks on a uke. Her sole ambition is to see America first. Good girl, Jean! Tennis 3; Yearbook; O. G A. 3. [ 18 ]
