EDMUND KENNEDY ELLIS Bethesda, Md. Cadets, 14, 15, °16, 17; Capt. Winning Co. C, 17; Wireless Club, '15; Treasurer Officers’ Club, 17.

ELY (Bee) 320 East Capitol St. Spring Play, ’17; Opera Club, ’17; Sec. Pres. 5th, 6th, 7th and 8th Semesters; Honor Roll 8th Semesters.

JOHN WEBSTER ERBACH 713 Massachusetts Ave. N. E. Cadets, ’14, '15, ’16. Yes, Erbach’s the boy with the laugh, That startles you when it goes off, In Spanish he stars ° And knows all about cars, For he lectures like any old “Prof.” ANGELA M. ERVIN (Gela) 506 Eighth St, N. E. Orchestra, ’14, 15, °16, 17; Spring Play, 17: Shakespearian Pageant, 16.

W. Spring Play, ’17; Honor Roll Semesters. Nona is little and quite demure, Iler marks are high we all are sure. She’s an artist too, Yes, that’s quite true, But that she’s quiet is even truer. HOWARD -A. DRAPER Manager Basebal’, ’17; Assistant Manager Baseball, ’16; Assistant Business Mana- ger Tech Life, '17. Our manager of baseball was he, Until he a yeoman would be, So our class he did leave And we all did grieve For Howard was good company. MILDRED DRYER (Jack) 525 Twelfth St., N. E.

He’s an actor of fame, And won him a name, While on Central's huge platform appearin’. ELEANOR FIELD 1673 Park Road. Honor Roll 2 Semesters. Eleanor’s a girl full of art; In drawing she’s really quite smart; Her painting is fine, She surely does shine; As an artist she'll sure do her part. J- RALPH FILLIUS 4126 Fifth St. N. W. Cadets, 15, '16, '17; Sergeant Co. B, 17. Fillius loves to dance, And in the cadets to prance; He runs his captain crazy, Because he is so lazy; With a gun he wil! ne'er take a chance. NEAL D. FRANKLIN Bethesda, Md. As a wireless fiend, Neal’s renown Has spread all over the town, But a bicycie cop To his joy put a stop By taking the antennae down. PAGE to on
