ELMO MANTELLI: “T awoke one morning and found myself famous.” Does this sparkling brown-eyed fellow need an introduction + We're sure an emphatic “no” would be the answer. Elmo has cer tainly made name which speaks for itself. Ile has risen to the top in athletics and always has advice for a poor friend in need. We hope that Elmo won't entirely forget us in the future.

VERONICA McGANN: “T never saw an eye so bright And yet so soft as hers” We didn’t know “Ica” was in school during her Freshman year, but she certainly made up for lost time. “Ica” is a jolly girl both in studies and in fun. We hope that she will not forget us, even if she is an important official in Cheneys “Ye Commercialites” ; JOSEPH McILDUFF: “Laugh and the world laughs with you. Cry and you cry alone.” Ilowdy “Joe”! “Joe” outside of being a funmaker, dancing, studying late at night, and doing his homework without ass - ance; would make an A-I scholar. But still “Joe” is liked by every- one who knows him. Loads of success in the business world, Joe. Student Council : WILLIAM McKINNEY: “Life is a comedy to him who thinks.” We all extended greetings to the little farmer who hails from Coventry. We've often wondered what is the cause of the pink and white school-girl compiexion. “Bill” has been a scholar that teachers appreciate and wish him luck when he has the cares of the world before him. English Club 24- : German Club, IRENE McMULLEN: “In every exalted joy, there mingles a sense of gratitude.” Glance down the corridor and see this industrious looking girl walking up. This is Lrene, the office girl, who, has been a quiet, studious girl, and we wish her loads of luck when the business —————— World claims her.

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.

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.

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.
