' I WII.IJAM ALEXANDER “Bill” 3, 4; Nuntius 2; Orchestra 1, 2, 3, 4 School Life 4 Along with the two hundred odd other Freshmen of 1926, came our red-headed Bill. Lie is proud to say that lie has never missed a day since that time. Bill is a good fiddler, and has played with the M. H. S. Orchestra for four years. Always a laughable and likeable fellow, he is very popular among his classmates. He is interested in scientific lines, and plans to enter M. I. T. next fall. We wish you luck, “Bill.” F. EL WOO I) ALLMON Peanut,” “Ellie” Baseball 1; C lass Day Committee 4; Football 1; Hockey 1. 2, 3, 4; Tennis 2 All hail the Californian ! This young gentleman came to us five years ago from that Golden State beyond the Rockies. Because of his diminutive size, we should not underestimate his ability. Ellie” is a fair student of academic subjects, but a better student of the opposite sex. He is well-known for his jovial nature and his bright outlook on life. No matter how hard things may be for him he always has a laugh or joke for everyone. As an athlete, he tried a little bit of everything during his Freshman year, but took a dislike for everything except hockey. And how that boy can play hockey ! Though he is not colorful he is very effective on a team. “Ellie” concluded his High School career by achieving his great ambition of being elected an “All-Scholastic Hockey Player.” MARGARET G. ALVAR 1) “Peggy,” Junie” Euclidean 4: Girls ' Club 3, 4; Traffic Squad 3, 4 When this charming young lady entered the “old brain fac- tory” four years ago, she was a demure little Freshman. She was soon taken in hand by willing upper classmen, who desired to help her. “Junie” was quite an active member on the Welfare Committee of the Girls’ Club this year. As Peggy desires to be a librarian, she is going to Middlebury College next year. Good luck, Peg, and watch out for the college boys! OLIVE ANDERSON “Andy” A pretty little miss came to us in her Freshman year from the Washington School. During the four years she has spent with us, she has won a great many friends by her charming per- sonality and keen sense of humor. “Andy” is the life of any party for it is impossible to remain solemn with such a comedian near one. She plans to be a stenographer and we congratulate the lucky firm who procures her. There’s a certain someone who occupies a lot of Olive’s time and we can understand her pref- erence for “Packards.”

THE LOG MARTHA ATWOOD Euclidean 4; Girls’ Club 3, 4; Orchestra 2; Traffic Squad 4 Martha, because of her sweet personality and happy disposi- tion, lias become one of our most popular girls. Her beautiful completion and curly blond hair arouse the admiration of the hoys and the envy of the girls. She is a member of the Girls’ Club and has been on the Induction Team for the last two years. Martha intends to enter Smith College next year. We wish her the best of luck, and know that whatever she does she will be a credit to M. H. S. EDITH BAILEY “Edie” Masque and II if 2, 3. 4; “ Count and the Cold 4 This diminutive member of our class came to- Melrose High from the Lincoln School in ' 25. By her happy and cheerful disposition Edie” won her way into the hearts of all her class- mates. Although she did some studying, she could think of lots nicer things to do, and we notice that she never lacked a male attendant at any school affair. Edie” could always be found in Room 13 working out some new pattern for a dress. We don’t know whether she is planning to be a designer or not, but we wish her the best of success in whatever she decides to do. RITA E. BALCOM Bella,” “Peanuts” Girls ' Club 3, 4 Peanuts” is one of the quiet members of our class, but if there is any fun going on she will be sure to be in on it. In her four years here, although she hasn’t taken part in any athletics, she has been one of the royal rooters at most of our games. Al- though “Bella” is known to a good many of her friends as a very good dancer, she will enter the business world next June. We see a bright future for her no matter what she undertakes.
