Seventy-one illustrious students If you don ' t believe this, Of the Class of Twenty-Nine. AVateh us as we pass. For we have Borsari, An athlete of great fame; The proud owner of an Overland And Norma is its name. Now C is our Churchill, Who takes life as a joke ; His greatest ambition Is to get Mrs. Brawn ' s goat. D is for our Dot, As saleswoman the best ; When it comes to selling tickets, She leads all the re st. E is for Elinor, Our class statistician. If personality isn ' t a gift, Elinor is a magician.

MEMORIAL HIGH SCHOOL CLASS OF TIVENTY-NINE greatest ambition was to kill two birds with one stone. His favorite game is tiddly-winks. Helen Redlon, Helen Wiksten. Did you ever see two people with such blonde locks? I ' m sure you haven ' t — and it ' s genuine too ! Euth ] Ianley, Dorothy ] Iaranville, Arnold Sellers. Ruth says she Avants to be secretary to the president of the U. S. A., but we think she would make an excellent Bebe Daniels. Dot with her dramatic powers could rival any actress, playing Lady Macbeth. Arnold, our mischievous Pandora, says she never wants to marry. We would suggest that in that case she take up the profession of law where she will be able to argue to her heart ' s content. Albert Carey, William Smith, Herbert Col- burn. Albert is more readily recognized as Mrs. Brawn ' s special perpetual motion ma- chine, the class tease, or the chronic talker. He expects to further his education at Brown. We ' ve always wondered Avhy Bill studied Commercial Geography with such zest. It has been disclosed that he is continually looking Hay ward. Herb is our most temperamen- tal boy. He always keeps us guessing as to what he will do next. Brirbara Vinal, Hilda MacKeen, Corinne Kidd. We advise you to eat something be- sides clie ese-crackers if you desire to fulfill your ambition of becoming a fat lady in a circus side show, Barbara. Hilda is one of our ([uiet persevering girls and we know tliat whatever she goes after she will get. Cor- inne ' s hobby is collecting motion picture actors ' photographs. Her favorite sport is Gym on Tuesdays. Robert Long, Chippy Merrihew, Vin- cent Sukefoi ' th. How we girls do envy Bob ' s school girl complexion and his ability to make up tantalizing rhymes. Chippy was voted the best boy dancer and the peppiest boy in the class. Everything he has done proves it. Vin is one of our industrious boys. Lois Thomas, Roger Leonard. The shining lights of the class — the valedictorian and the salutatorian. They were both voted as the two most likely to succeed in life. Reluctantly I closed the book and gazed at the bright untarnished title. It had been a pleasant evening which I had spent in the attic of M. H. S., and I would never forget that illustrious class of ' 29. [25]
