ERNEST CUTTER “Eyes of mischievous blue.” Who's behind those mas- terful blue eyes? Why, of course, Ernie, who hates to miss activity. He is every- one’s friend and has a con- genial nature. Football 1; Tennis 2; Operetta 8h. HILDA DOLAN “She possessed a talent of pro- ducing effect in whatever she did.” Where would all the dan- ces and social events of our school have been if it were not for Hilda's unique ad- vertisements? It would be sad even to think of it. She has contributed much of her time in helping our school paper with her clever cartoons. Our school certainly is deeply indebt- ed to her. Field Hockey 1; Tennis 1; Arch- ery 1; Yearbook 2; Spotlight 1. CONRAD DELFINO FRANK DIAS “A spirit so still and quiet.” “Pleasant and affable to all.” A . quiet, conscientious Conrad gave few an op- portunity to really know him; through reticence, or modesty, he has remained scholar is Frank. Although he is a diligent worker, he knows how to laugh and has a friendly personality. undivulging. Ii‘ is known, however, that basketball He is hoping to attend a takes up most of his spare Veterinary school ater moments. graduation and we wish Besenail him good luck. Dance Committees 1; President of 201; Operetta 2; Boys’ Glee Club. VIRGINIA DOMINGS “Softly speak and sweetly smile.” The friendly smile and quiet manners of short, brunette Virginia have at- tracted a close circle of friends for her. RICHARD DUNHAM “Quiet fellow full of fun.” Although quiet and unas- suming, Richie rarely misses a trick. Outside of school, his one love is the wide open spaces. Given a gun and some traps he’s in his element and roams. the fields and woods reveling in the unrestricted freedom.

JEAN COMMONS “Nice things come in little packages.” Remember the little colored girl in our senior play? That was tiny Jean all blackened up. | doubt if shell ever forget the time she had getting that make- up off. Incidently Jeannie does a neat job of reciting. Senior Play; French Club 1; Archery 1; Spotlight. ROY COOK “A sunny temper gilds the edges of life’s blackest cloud.” Roy's eternal cheerfulness and fellowship make him the sort of person without which life at school, or for that matter anywhere, would be incomplete. We might wish him the best of luck, but such is the man that it is quite unnecessary. Baseball 1; Volley Ball 1; Bas- ketball 3. JOAN COMMONS “She is good as she is fair.” It can easily be seen by the picture that Joan enjoys having a good time. She may look quiet, but get her interested and you will find she can talk on almost every subject. Tennis 1; Band 2; Orchestra 1. FRANCIS CULBERTSON “And still be doing, never done.” Fran is a welcome addition to our Class, as he would be anywhere. Perhaps, this is because of his Scout work in which he is very active. We have less hesi- tation in saying it of him than we would of anyone else. He is and always will be an asset. RITA CONVERSE “It's the little things that count.” This is Rita. What would school be like without her? To her life is just one little chat after another. Every- one knows Rita as her cheerful smile has won her a host of friends. Job Hunting Club 1. PHILLIP CURRA “Smile and be happy.” Phil is the strong, silent type and the possessor of a captivating smile. He has almost exhausted the libra- rys supply of exciting novels, he gallops through them so quickly.

RAYMOND DURLING “Live for something.” Ray is a small boy who makes up for his lack of stature with his marvelous ability with his hands. Nothing suits him better than to take machines apart and assemble their parts again. Senior Play; Operetta 3; Avia- tion Club 3; Boys’ Glee Club. WARREN EMPEY “If silence is golden, then Warren is a millionaire.” Once upon a time, the Sphinx and Warren held a contest to see who could go the longer without say- ing anything. Needless to say Warren won hands down. As a result we know very little about him, but believe he will undoubtedly be a great success. LAWRENCE DUTTON “To, know him is to like him.” Larry's flare for athletics, namely, track, soccer, and hockey, has earned him quite a reputation. Behind his bashful exterior is a love for the downbeat and by that we mean he's a hot drummer who swings a mean pair of drumsticks. Soccer 2; Football 1; Track; Hockey 1; Senior Play; Treas- urer of French Club; Athletic Gulls. HARRY FISHER “Thought is deeper than all speech.” Harry is one of the more reserved members of our class. He is well liked by both students and faculty. He is serious and hard- working. He has plenty of that good old ‘do or die” spirit. His soccer and track give concrete evidence to the above statement. Soccer 1; Track 3. BARBARA ELDER “Seek and you shall find.” Through her determination and thoroughness in a- chieving what she sets out to do, Barbara has won a high place in the heart of Lexington High School. Dance Committee; O.G.A.; Press @luiley President; Spotlight; Band 2. FLORENCE FITZGERALD “She brings a smiling visage to the glass — and meets a smile.” Florence's dimples are pro- vocation and always show at the tiniest smile. She says her passion is cOow- boys because they are bow-legged. We wonder if she'll find any in the hos- pital when she’s in training. Spotlight; A.S.A.
