SOMANHIS EVENTS NATHAN JEFFERSON: “A man of pleasure a oman of pain Hlave you brought your personal money yet? “Jet believes in spending his money for aeroplane rides. “Nate” isn’t exactly a book worm but—-he gets there just the same. We know we will miss Jefe in years to come, and we wish him loads of luck, EDITH JOHNSON: “From a pure fountain pure water flows.” “Kde is a quiet young lass, but she is always ready to have her share in any fun. During her life in S. M. 1 she has always succecded. “Ede” always relies on the motto: “If you would have a thing done right, you must do it yourself.” This motto we are sure Will bring her success, A. BF. G. Club (27228 French Club °26-'27, GLADYS JOHNSON: “Tler cares upon her rest but lightly For she is lively, young, and sprightty.”” “Gladie” has a long way to go, but she’s sure to get there. We've often wondered what would happen if “Gladdie™ came to school early one morning. She has a winning way which wins her a lot of friends. We know that her efficiency in typewriting and shorthand will bring her a high position in the business world. A. G. Club 27-28; Girls Glee Club ‘27 : Girls Bowling League SARAH JONES: “The secret in being loved is in being lovely.’ We've found our little blue-eyed Sally right here in S., M, UL. S. “Sally” has been a faithful student, and those who have known her are the ones who can really appreciate her fine qualities, which are many. She intends to enter Pratt Institute in the fall, and we wish her all kinds of luck. DORIS KEENEY: “Vanity is a natural object of temptation toe a woman.” The next curiosity is a character from Delmont Street is one of those students who talks as well as thinks: The busi world claims “Dot” after graduation and we are sure that she will reach the top of the ladder of success. “French Club '26227; Girls Bowling League '26-27; A. FF. G, Club 27 28; Washington Group Leader; Honor Roll 6. GEORGE KEPNEY: “O, it is exeellent to have ao giant’s strength.” Who is this tall, brawny fellow before us? That’s “Doe.”” When “Doe” goes through the line, nothing can hold him back. Even though “Doe” is one of the quiet boys of the class, he is well known for his many friends. “Doe” intends to enter College next fall and we hope he will break through the line there as he has done in 8S. M. H. 8. Football °25- 28; Captain of Football 27; Basketball ’27-'28 ; Track ’27-'28. DAVID KERR: “You may depend upon it that he is a good man.” S. M. HE. S. will lose a good baseball and basketball) player next year when “Dickie” graduates. He has been a consistent player on both teams for two years. We don't know his intentions but he probably will surprise us. In whatever he ‘rlakes, we wish him luck. German Club °27; Baseball °27 Basketball ‘28. WALTER KITTLE: “Fortune be-friends the bold.” Are you looking for a popular chap? Then here is “Buteh.’ He has par ticipated in almost every sport since he has been in S M. Hl. S. He is a mischief-loving fellow, but maybe that’s why we like him. He is following in his brother's footsteps he is entering Middlebury college in September. Good luck, Butch!

SOMANHIS EVENTS HAROLD HARRISON: “Too many giddy foolish hours are gone.’ We are sang. “Mi always has something humorous on the tip of his longue, and these sometimes count in his marks. We all know that he is a very good sport and so let's bid him good-by and good luck. WARD HARRISON: “Pools rush in where angels fear to tread.” Behold this slim yveung Adonis coming down the hall. Ile is no other than Ward Harrison. We didiwt really know him until we went to Washington. He is an all around good fellow and we wish him success in whatever he undertakes. FRANCIS HICKING: “T saw him beat the surges under him, And ride upon their bac Ila off to the swimming hero! Francis is about the only “duck” in our class, and has worked his hardest to promote our swimming team to une position it now holds. His work in the orchestra cannot be overlooked becat he is a first class musician. We hope that Francis will swim his way to success in the busi- ness world. Orchestra °2526- Art “28. 8 Swimming ‘27-28; Swimming Poster PHOEBE HILLS: “She is best who is least spoken mong men, whether for good or evil” demure little girl before us? She is Phoebe, the cleyss cook. Phos is a friend to all when one gets to know her. She intends to enter Normal School next year, and we know that she will have many prosperous years of teaching. Who knows this sh EDNA HOWARD: “Certainly a woman's thoughts run before her actions.” Good things come in small packages. That's our opinion of | “Eddie” whenever you see a crowd of boys and girls standing in the hall, “lddie™ is alw the attraction. She h participated faithfully in beth stud and sports and she certainly can dance. Well “Eddie” here’s wishing you success, Vice-president) Freshman Class: Latin Clob, German Clinb Prom Committee; Leaders Class ‘27-28; Glee Club °26- 2 Class Day Committee. % 26. S- LOIS HOWE: Iways willing to welcome a member of the “Mugeets” “A constant friend is a thing rare and hard to find.” Tall, slim and a model girl, That's our Lois. She certainly is the bookworm of our s. Lois’ keen mind and alert body have placed her in almost ¢ club in HL. S. We hope these qualities will bring her to the highest position in life. Vice-president or Cl Dramatic Club ‘2 26. 7 French Club 2¢ “28: Leaders Class 26- Latin Club; Club “26; Hlonor Roll 12. RICHARD HUMPHRIES: “Iie whose goodness is part of himself, Is what is called a real man.” Now we come to “Red”. Red and “Pimp” have stuck together throughout their TL S. Career, They surely are some Mutt ane Jeff combination. “Red” is a jolly good fellbw and he contradicts the common belief about red-heads. The class of 1928S wish him many prosperous years. RALPH INGRAHAM: “His sparkling sallies bubbled up as from a natural fountain.’ Hail to “Pimp” our class comedian. We often wonder if Ralph could possibly be serious. Despite his playful attitude, he has re- ceived high marks in his H. S. course. We expect to see him a famous orator or preacher. Teachers and pupils wish him good-luck. | i

SOMANHIS EVENTS FRANK KRIESKI: “Lam never merry when [ hear sweet mus Let us introduce the Fritz Kreisler of our We heard very litthe from ink since he entered high as a man: the only sound coming from his violin. What in the would Frank do about it if he ever spoke in Assembly? Well, good- bye and good luc ‘rank, Orchestra 2 Contestant at the State Bookkeeping Con- test at Bridgeport, KERMIT KROLL ” “Knows lots buts keeps it quiet. low do you do, “Dusty ? Where have you been for four We have seen your smile now and then, and know that you are a jolly good fellow but as for words, they are few. You would make a good boss for | people. Our only wish can be: Lots of words and loud deeds for the future. FLORENCE LEWIS: “The sweetest garland to the sweetest maid.” Bonjour Florence! ‘ve often wondered why you stay s) small but maybe it is “use you study so hard. We haven't heard much from you during your stay at 3S. M. II. Ss. but we know the business world will change you. Au Revoir! French Club 27; A. F. G. Club 28. MARJORIE LITTLE: “TL have often regretted having spoken, never having kept silent.” And now we come to our next , the one who doesn’t know what silence is. “Marg” has a cherry disposition which pro- bably accounts for her popularity. She intends to enter Miss Wheelock’s Kindergarten school, but we are very doubtful if she always remains a school teacher. Glee Club 627, Student Council Washington trip committee, French Club mittee. Prom Committee, Class Day Com- ALBERT LUPIEN: “You know I say just what I think, and nothing more or less” The next question that arises in our minds, isn’t a very hard one to solve, Who is this sturdy, pugnacious fellow before us? Why, its “Ab” of course. “Ab” has been one of the deadlocks in our football team, and he is also a dandy out-field He is an all round good fellow. We hate to lose “Ab” to Harvard, but we're sure to see him in the line-up of some Yale-Llarvard game. : Manager of Baseball °27, Pts sident French Club °27. Assistant manager of baseball Baseball 25-28, Football 24-27; P HUDSON LYONS: “Quality not quantity is my measure.” “IHuddy” can surely play the cornet as well as he plays tennis. ie has been » mainstay of the band, and has made almost all of the noise. He seemed rather shy until he went to Washington, but now we know better. HILDA MAGNUSON: “No man ever stood lower in my estimation for having a pateh in his clothes.” If ever there was a sport Hilda is “it”. We doubt if there’s more popular or jolly girl in the whole school. Hilda can always bear up her end of the bargain whether it be study or fun. She is always smiling and has a pleasant word for everyone. Hilda isn’t sure what she will do in the future but we wish her luck whatever it may be. Secretary Senior Class: Fr mittee; Honor Roll; Glee Club Club ‘27-'28, Class Day Com- LAURENCE MALONEY: “Better later than never” Inter “Sheik” This name was bequeathed on Larry, four years ago but it is just lately he is carrying it out to the best of his ability. He has done more in Trade School than he has in S. M. Hl. S. but his popularity is deserving here. We wish him the great- est success in making a name for himself in the future.
