XII. THE CHRONICLE Lester Brown Bus” Bus is our hero in athletics feats, lie’s the kind that eau smile when the other team beats, He is steady and staunch, an unerring friend, A peach ot' a fellow from the start to the end. We wonder what the school will do next year without Bus as the backbone of athletics. He is very modest, too—that’s one of the reasons we all like him.

THE CHRONICLE XI. Warren Breckenridge “Brecky” Brecky’s the pride of the chemistry class Indeed it must he so, For when he starts to do his work, He makes the rest look slow.

Chronicle (4); Baseball (4); Class Historian (4). Beatrice Brennan “Bee” Beatrice is a pretty name, But she who owns it is prettier still. No, Bee, this isn’t a pun on your talkativeness.

THE CHRONICLE XIII. Katherine Celia “Kath” Katherine was always a rather meek lass One hardly knew she was in the class, Each morning whether rain or shine, She reached room 12 between eight and nine. Regardless of the distance she had to walk every morning, “Kath” always reached school bright and early. Well, there’s a saying that the “Early Bird Catches the Worm.” Booster Club (4); French Club (3); O. G. A. (3); O. A. T. (3). Blanche Chapman “Chappie“ Chappie is our girl athlete of renown, She had the girls heat from all around, At basket ball and track she’s a star, And all because she used to chase a trolley car. Chappie helped greatly in winning many of out-basket ball games. Besides this, as a member of the Chronicle Staff she’s done excellent work. Basket Ball (1-2-3-4); Booster Club (4); French Club (3-4) Chronicle Staff (4); Track Mgr. (4). Eugene Cook Bulldog” There is a young student named Gene, And no one more modest is seen. Eugene is one of the most unassuming members of our class. Yet “Greatness is oft concealed in modesty”. French Club (4). Philander Cooke “Phil” “Pil of flivver fame” You all have heard that name In good or bad weather, No matter whatever, Phil is always the same. Phil is one of our most “happy-go-lucky” members. Evidently “Laugh and the world laughs with you” is his motto, for oft has his musical (?) laughter resounded through the corridors to cheer us on dark days. Last, but not least, we envy him that renowned Ford. Football (2-4); Glee Club (1).
