THE SCREECH OWL 23 Dorothy Marsden — “Dot” Brilliance in studies and athletics has characterized Dot’s high school career. She is the busiest girl of the school, but she is always there to lend a hand. Dot does everything well. Can we say more ? Sidney McCleary — “Sid” Famous saying: “There ought to be a system.” It isn’t everyone who can look like a professor and keep out of jail. Sid drops his dignified mien to become a detective hot on the trail of a stray penny for the Screech Owl. Sid’s suc- cessful “system” in Stow is beginning to make a convert of us. Esther Murray You want to watch Esther — she’s full of surprises. Such innocence can’t be true. ’Fess up, Esther. Lois Murray Lois, you must understand, is the quiet kind — but she always knows when to do the right thing. She, of all of us, has the habit of letting the teachers lecture undisturbed. Probably it’s a sisterly feeling. Margaret Murray — “Peg” Peg is one of the actresses of the class. Her ability was proved in the Senior play and the operetta. Peg is some entertainer. Remember her with her uke on the sleigh ride? We think Peg ought to go on the stage or on the “air.”

22 THE SCREE CH OWL Reba Lerer Reba Lerer, so prim and sedate, Goes to bed early and never stays late, Except when Kevin is concerned. And then, the midnight oil is burned! Marion Lester Marion Lester, so quiet, so demure, Looks like a home-maker sure. Her affections lean toward a Forge Village player. Who makes a “hit” out of any old air. Kauko Luoto — “Kugga” The great mathematical problem of 1932 is “Can Kauko eat or sell more candy?” Catherine Macey Catherine Macey can sleep and eat. And with a phonograph compete. When she orates, she goes quite mad. Because she’s got a gift of “gab.” Ebba Mark Ebba Mark, that cheerful girl. The pride and joy of the Commercial Room. She looks so meek, and yet so sweet. That she can be called, ah yes, “petite.’ '

24 THE SCREECH OWL James Mullin — “Moon” Jim is the tall, blonde, football hero of the class. His favorite mode of express- ing himself is “bubbling over.” Jim’s unhappy knack of being in the wrong place at the wrong time is sometimes relieved by his famous “That’s all right.” Incidentally, Jim doesn’t have to eat Wheaties to have adventures. Cecelia Nelson — “Curly” There’s truth in the proverb, “Good things came in small packages.” Don’t we know it, finding this package full of energy and smiles? Find Nettie and there’s Cele, or listen for Cele and find Net. We expect to see Curly bounce out on the top of her chosen profession. Christopher Newman — “Chris” At times one see a lad towering above the tumult about him, proceeding un- moved by the surrounding animation, but deep in the meditations and ideals of that higher element. In such a case, one can never fail to recognize Chris — the demon of slow motion. Mark Newton — “Mickie” Mickie’s career has been somewhat ad- venturous. Dashing is the word for Mick, both regarding the cinder track and the fair sex. John Nowick — “Doc” Doc makes a habit of keeping his sunny side up. Even golf doesn’t ruffle his equanimity. Doc’s pep puts him across as a student as well as an athlete.
