LaDonna Schuster Virginia Shannon Clyde Shade .Jacque Sheppard SPIES report that LaDonna Schuster was last vaccinated 'way back in 1926, and that her fondness for book- keeping may or may not have some- thing to do with her skill at basketball. volleyball, and soccer .... No wonder Clyde Shade was one of Mehock's best track fiends. Made possible by a long, easy stride and the intestinal fortitude to stick it out in mile and half-mile jaunts. He's learning the grocery busi- ness from the ground upwsweeping the floor .... The Manhigan Almanac Specialist tried and tried to make Vlr- glnla Shannon's very first birthday come out on Friday the 13th, but after working in Leap Years and all, it balked at Wednesday .... Jacque Sheppard, dubbed Chief Sapwood by his severest critic, has a good-natured ob- stinacy which is impenetrable. Of 1 would a birdlet were fame, he's a horrible, greenish, cabbage, garden variety bookworm. Ambition: to know something about everything .... Clyde Stahl has a blase expression seldom equaled in these parts. Slight and well co-ordinated. Wants to get a sock at the Cleveland Golden Gloves Tourney. Got one in the try-outs last year, but it came from the wrong direction. . . . Gladys Stanley is another of those people who don't wait long from birth- day to Christmas. Outstanding in ath- letics, she seems to be finding life at- tractive .... Hail! Whooping-Crane, sometimes called Great-Bear-Chief-Rem Headed - Woodpecker - Sittin' - on- Stump - With - His -.Tail - Wagglin'- Over - the- Edge. Have you ever seen Bob Steele in a hurry? You never will. A rabid ball fan, when Red rants on that subject, it goes in one ear and comes out his mouth again. A first class hot stove philosopher .... Active though she was in Social Science Serv- ice, A Capella choir, Blue Tri, etc. etc., Ruth Stephenson found time to keep the boys guessing. Maybe that's why Clyde Stahl Ruth Stephenson Gladys Stanley Annabel Strong Robert Steele Robert Swineford two escorts always took her home .... Here's a joy-bubbler of the first water. Went Oriental when she was a junior- even slanting eyebrows. A phenomenal translator of German is Annabel Strong, too .... Bob Swineford works on the assembly line down at Dominion Electric: is accumulating necessary shekels to study aviation. Swims a mean Australian Crawl. Goes to see something in Ashland every now and then, and something here every then and now .... The bard singeth of Wayne Taylor: Butch - the - Brawny, alias Norman Wayneg Will he forget his good friend Jane? 'Cause a sailor he'll be on the China blue sea: But alas! only finny mermaids for he! Nui sed. That red hair does more than keep his scalp warm, by the by .... Here's Puck, the comic jester, with upturned nose and a twinkle in his eye. Lee Theaker likes to sleep. Snoozing before ten every night .... Fate has destined Evelyn Ward to be the second famous Eve. She stayed out of mischief by hunting props for the senior play, sing- ing in A Capella choir and Glee club, and Blue-Tri-ing for three years .... Merle Wheltner made our heavy-footed warriors jealous at the senior party with his nimble dancing. Cooled off one night pushing his car out of the ditch on one of those mercury-goes-down-and around nights .... You half expect Melvin Welty to be carrying nuts in his Wayne Taylor Lee Theaker Evelyn Ward Merle Wheitner Melvin Welty John Wheaton Jane Williams Robert Wise cheeks and scampering up trees. Doesn't fit with his anticipated bana- nanana plantation in South America. . . . Dull-Knife tJohn Wheatonj made history by dropping a pumpkin pie bot- toms up on his lap the first time he ate at Bob Wise's grandmother's house. Owns a 23 acre farm-which doesn't excuse him .... Quick, braves, repair to your tepees and soothe the fretful locks, for here is Willie-the-Warren Wayne-Wooer! Jane Williams jumped into all available activities and became acquainted rapidly. Had the most dra- matic line in the senior play, and put it across .... By the dark of the moon, our Wise Weasel stalks and stalks-other people's grapes. Bob Wise, better known as Phoebe to his intimates, is a constructive auto-wreck- er. Used to be a constructive citizen before he met Theaker. Compliments of Finefrock Funeral Home 2Qf 12

Lawrence Marks Clarence Meder Jane Martin Marjorie Mercer Margaret Maul Ralph Miles Margery Maul Donald Moore INJUN DOGS come big as logs in some cases: on the large hewn Mr. Marks you will get a lot of man if you buy by the foot. The Tower of Babble, Larry to his mother, Looney to his friends, is our exuberant problem child. Something of a mathematical wizard. . . . Jane-''Alice-in-Wonderland Martin reminds one strongly of the girl who played the movie version of that tale. As honest and unassuming as her own name .... All the w0rld's a stage and the people merely players, and the Maul twins certainly have talent in that di- rection. Else how could Margery have taken Margaret's place in chemistry'? Else how could Margaret have taken Margery's German Class for her? The Belle twin did her falling down scene Margaret Moore Betty Painter William Oherlin Esther Pfaff Paul Oakes Rowland Poth in one of the drama class plays so real- istically that even the props shivered in sympathy. ller sister is her reflection. Miss Jane is like any reflection should be-a little shyer, quieter, less vibrant. . . . Sunny-Soak Meder has become owl- wise looking since his arrival at the Great Lodge. Very tricky with the medicine ballg he'll knock your pins out from under you if you don't savvy. Next to bowling, he'll take dancing. . . . Our prize piece of Mercer-dise- mercy on us brave fellows--is Marjorie. Has as much backbone as anything up to 20 times her size. In German class, for instance, if Marjorie was adverse to reciting twhich was quite oftenj not even the promise of an easy passage could lure her out .... Heap good pip- sewawa medicine is our warm-hearted brother, O - Great -and-Mighty-Hair-om End - Except - When - He - Combs - It- Which-He-Never-Does. Ralph Miles sur- prised himself by writing an entertain- ing sketch in senior English .... His revered peace pipe is fragrant as pine needles -quoting Don Moore. It puz- zles him that he must leave the noble piece outside when entering squaw friend's wigwam .... And Moore yet- this time it's Margaret, who likes to join the unsophisticates in the spring and go roller skating, to take the cob- -70iU1 PUNIY Marjorie Reynolds Doris Ranck Paul Ripe wcbs of the commercial course out of her head. . . . When 1Vlllie Oberlin was just a mite, his mother told him to keep his chin up, and as we see, he's done exactly as he was told. Bill rang the gong at Red Masque, put the sen- ior play in the black, and wrote acres of copy for the Manhigan .... Paul Oakes is a tall Oake already. Spark- ling eyes, a friendly demeanor, he found stamp collecting a life saver in a strange atmosphere .... Betty Painter, the candy kid, kept in condition by do- ing calisthenics with the G. A. A. and being bounced around in her Ford V8 tno reflection on Ford VS'sJ .... Es- ther Pfaff has held up under the strain of having all the teachers mispronounce her name. Acquired endurance by tak- ing long hikes for G. A. A .... This fair brave and fellow stoogent enter- tains an Indian schnozzle, that must be by heaven sent for his fellows to la- ment who have none so shapely bent. Who else has such but Rowland Both? Hobby: model aeros. Slickest shoe shiner the M association has had in years .... As full of secrets as Pan- dura's box and as buggy, Jean Purdy scrambled together a handful of senior write-ups in one morning: nothing to it! . . . Shake a stick at this list of activi- ties and guess who? Anyway, Doris Ram-k joined up with Red Masque, Glee Club, Operetta, Hypho, and A Capella. Can flap her arms in goose fashion. . . . We used to think that Marjorie Reynolds would burst into a highland air any moment, judging from her pref- erence for plaids. Maybe she did, for she sang in the Glee Club and A Ca- pella .... Paul Rice came up from Birmingham, Ala., in 1932, to show us some of the characteristics of a south- ern gentleman. Reads Dickens and Sinclair Lewis. 11 al: ny

LeRoy Wittemire Helen Wolford Harold Worner Evelyn Yuncker Peter Zeides A TURNED-UP nose, 'tis said, shows a sociable personality. That ex- plains how LeRoy Wittemlre has a monopoly on so many maidens' hearts and when you put that charm on wheels, you've got something. Straw colored hair. Has jags on telephone poles. Not that kind-we mean he digs his cleats in and helps keep the lines in working order .... Helen Wolford took time out from the Commercial Course to work on the Senior Play Committee. Nobody tried to keep this Wolford from the door .... Another he-man who must have kissed the Blarney Stone is Harold Worner. When he wasn't reeling off a mile a minute, he tooted a horn in the band and orchestra, and belonged to the Photo Club and Radio Club .... Evelyn Yuncker is a busy young lady, but she has the kind of fire that leaves no smoke. Quietly but efficiently, she guided the G. A. A., provided programs for the French Club, wrote for the Manhigan, and sat in the S. R. C .... His name sounds Dutch, and Pete Zeldes makes you think of the Zeider Zee, and then we think how much like the real thing he would look in wooden shoes. And then you stop thinking, be- cause where possibly could you get enough lumber for those shoes? The golf bug has bitten him so badly that every time he gets into a car he goes into the ditch. Famous for his poetry, a bit on the sticky side, but he's young yet. 13 zu: my
