THOMAS KK. BARNES “Tokey’ Tokey’s handiest tools in shaping the success of his life are the bigness of his heart and the iron character of his will. Thus equipped, he has yet to fail in the attainment of his goal. He has ever shown an abundance of group spirit and endorses events for all he is worth. He uses most of his spare moments living up to his reputation of class cartoonist, at which title he lays quite a claim. Rumors have it that he sports quite a collection of local features. If Tokey has his way there will be art in his future. Football Mgr. 2; Baseball Mgr. 2; Math Club 2, 3; Tatler 3; A.A. 2, 3, 4; Science Club 3; Decorating, Re- ception; Publicity, Class Play. IRENE Ey - BELLEVANCE ey” Jolly Irene’s patient smile has been tried and tested beyond all doubt in her noon hour job at the lunch counter. And she emerges well established as one of the warmest rays of local sunshine. Unassuming, mild- mannered, she manages to make a deep inroad into peoples’ hearts by the sterling qualities of her fine neighborliness. Even though Irene loves to sew, she (as so many others) prefers dancing to the music of Harry James. She nourishes the desire to become an accountant.

BOYNTON “Eddy” Handsome Ed is our capable class president, and though being in the lead often creates ticklish problems, our man has ever demonstrated the cool requirements de- manded of leadership. Whatever his field of operation, a stellar performance is the result, due to the combination of a keen intellect and a persevering diligence. It is then no surprise that he excelled both in class and in sports, while still reserving enough time toward social events to acquire himself a great many friends. The very seriousness of his endeavors forecasts many bright to- morrows. Basketball 2, 3, 4; Math Club 2, 3, 4; President 2, 3, 4; Science Club 3; D.A.R. U. S.
