Has anyone ever seen Elias “off guard” when he was not engaged in talking about either of his two favorite sub- jects . . C or S ? You should be a lawyer, Elias. Paul Hogman “Well done is better than well said” Student Council (2). Paul’s ambition is to be a farmer. But it’s supposed to be a secret. We know he will be successful. Aaro Hyden “ He bore without abuse The grand old name of gentleman.” There is wisdom in Silence. Bashful, silent, smart, what more? Indescribable Hyden.

THE SCREECH OWL 27 Anthony Grigas “ Quietness is the finest armour a man can wear” Track (4). Chief attraction in the “Tale of Two Cities ,, ; short, attractive, and always on the run.

Bennie is famous for his fine performances in the two “hits” of this year on the school stage. He’s the sort of a fellow anyone would like for a friend. Bennie always has a friendly smile for all and he’s a great asset to the school because of his diligent work in keeping the building neat Good luck, Bennie. Barbara Hamlin “Full of courtesy, full of poise” French Play (3) (4); Hockey (2). “Bobbe” is our very popular “Sophisticated Lady.” She has a fine personality and is well-liked, “Bobbe” has definite ideas of becoming a Medical Secretary, and we know she’ll always get what she really wants.

He frequently changes his residence, and his secret ambition is one day to move his household goods to Lanesville.

His excel- lent work on the football and baseball teams have branded him as an athlete of the highest calibre. Harry has a nickname but he has reserved this for his more intimate friends. Perhaps if you question him about life with the Zulus he will divulge it. Thelma Karhumaa “With her eyes in floods with laughter ” Competition Play (1). A bewitching smile such as Thelma’s radiates the whole room. Lots of luck to you, Thelma. Nicholas Kavalchuck “A little nonsense now and then, Is relished by the wisest men” “Nick” is the fair-haired usher in a local theatre. His pleasing disposition and continual good nature have gained for him the affection of all his classmates. Just be yourself, Nick, and success will not fail you. Fred Keegan “He taketh most delight in music” Student Council (1) (3); Social Committee (3); Ring Committee (3). Fred was never one to “beat around the bush” concerning orchestras — he knows them all! Between his burdensome duties in the “A P”, the Commercial Department, and the dance orchestras, “Keeg” manages to enjoy life.
