the Mesa, he has proven his initiative, leadership, and thoroughness. For four consecutive years the orchestra and glee club have enjoyed his help as an active participant, Louis’s favorite studies in high school rave been English Literature, and U. S. History; Lord Byron and Erov ning are his- pet poets. Although he is an enthusiastic fol- lower of most sports, golf, of course, is his favorite. We feel sure that Louis will bring credit to his Alma Mater I Francis Dusoe answers to the description of tall, dark, and hand- some, and to the name of Tart . His favorite subject is guidance that probably accounts for his wonderful personality. He has been active in Art subjects, and can always be depended upon to come through with an extra-special poster whenever the occasion demands. His work for the Year Book has been a great asset. Francis’s interest is equally divided between Jiving and art; however, he expects to make art his life work. The Chinese sage Confucius is his favorite author. Tart dislikes any references to beauty parlors, quiet people, dry jokes, and poor dancers. He is not very partial to sports and rather prefers bugging around in an old car to the best sport going. Tart is a pretty swell guy! Russell Erickson, one of the foremost members of the Senior Class has been very active in class activities during his four years of high school. Proof of his fine dramatic ability is the fact that as sopho- more and junior he was chosen to take important roles in the Junior Plays. Russ was one of the Prom Committee, a member of the Science and Dramatic Clubs. During his senior year, he was manager of the basketball and baseball teams, business manager of the Mesa, and Vice President of the class. Russ’s chief hobby is driving--and how! Sabatini is his favorite novelist. He is guilty of one conspicuous weakness — fondness for girls. In September, Russell is going to Bos- ton University to take a business course, after which he may take a two year course of lav;. He may become governor some day. Who Knows? Best wishes for success from Major Edwards, Russell !
