THE BOUNCER Violet Stapleford civil: This petite damsel, dainty as the flower her name represents, has been with us during the whole of our high school course. Her at- tractiveness has stolen many hearts of the op- posite sex in the last two years. As her pict- ure shows Violet is a strong supporter of the Marcel Wave. Alta Bernice Tinkham A, B. T. Claws play 1315 Dramatic Club plays 121 141: Alta hails from Anson. A. B. T. is only sweet sixteen, she is famous for her shy blush- es and saintly appearanceg but when you know her deep down- you'd be surprised. Her favorite poet is Burns, the probable rea- son is because he wrote I Love My Jean. Her greatest problem is where and when to go after she leaves M. H. S.

One cannot be a. goo.d farmer and a crack ball player at once. Many a time has Ray stood on the ball Held watch- ing the descending ball with half-closed eyes knowing full well that to miss was to lose the game, but always amid the jeers of the enemy and the shouts of his comrades his glove would slip around the ball and the next instant it would be flying through the air to do eiiicient work in another quarter. Ray will probably attend business college and then-well, busi- iness will. have to take a boom.

THE BOUNCER 19 Nellie Stevens Welch Nellie Class-play C313 Exchange Editor 1455 Chairman W. S. S. Committee C415 Class Will. You have certainly made a record at lVI. H. S. Nellie. When anyone wants anything donef- irom decorating the hall to teaching Latin-f they go to Nellie, and she's right there with the goods. She is thinking of training for a nurse, hut if sfhe does it will he a catastrophe lecause everybody will immediately become sick. Her greatest fault is wanting something she cannot haveg for instance' natural curls and a graceful, slim figure. After all Nellie is a good sport. Ruth Emma Wescott Ruth Pictures are sometimes deceiving. Al- ihough Ruth looks quiet and demure, her classmates do not always see her thus. For instance-when a trip is proposed-possibly to Athens which is only a small hamlet on the edge of the woods, how excited she gets. We tan account for it only one way. namely her enjoyment of a quiet evening with plenty of cc-untry rustics for company. .griliiv ,:5g:pQg4g24fg1:. llmlaiifrli 1 - Q4 U-g P Lh9.3:gg3?f?2f ' 4 O lui it ' !5:7:'2
