CHARLES SUTTON ff Mike Here he is! Can we ever forget him? No! just think of a certain football game last season, and then visualize Sutton, tearing down the field for a touchdown. We were surprised, but imagine his amazement! We always thought of Charles as a woman-hater, but lately he has been vice- versa. We must admit he is pretty nearly the acme of masculinity. Football, 3, 4, Golf, 4. STANLEY SWIDERSKI usfanu Meet the barber! Stanley has already completed a course in barberingg and when he opens up his shop, ten or twenty years from now, no doubt his fellow classmates will be quite ready for a hair cut. Perhaps, if he's good enough, some of the fair sex will stop in to have their crowning glory retouched. He should be good in that line, as he is quiet and calm at all times. Nothing can ever seem to disturb him. He is usually in that unlively state known to us as a fog. All joking aside, though, Stanley is a good fellow. Perfect Attendance, 2, 3, 4. JANE TALTON If the saying, silence is golden, is true, we can assure you jane will receive more than her share of gold in the world. Although we don't see much of jane, when we do see her, she has a pleasant smile for everyone. jane cer- tainly was an asset to her class baseball team, because she always seemed to come through in a pinch.

ETHEL SMYTH ll YY Meet Tiny Smyth, the vest pocket artist of the senior class. Her name is Sm-eye-eth, not Smith. But it would take more than that to keep her from being the cutest girl in the class. Tiny is the one who is responsible for all the beautiful girls around the corridors of the school-on posters. Tiny hails from South America, and has a lovely English accent. Maybe that's why her French translations are rather unintelligible. Still, we forgive her all this, because-isn't she cute?

ELONA SOCHOR 3 Emma Watch out, Elona! You're going to break your neck. Such were the words of warning that Elona had thrust at her during Senior Play rehearsals. She had the tedious job of ladder climbing. Elona is a very hard working girl. She tells us that 2:00 A. M. is her retiring hour on school nights. Is it work, or is it what? We think it's what. However, she always knows her lessons. She can rattle the piano keyboard, too, until both she and the piano are ex- hausted. She'll get there.

Laureate Spelety. PAUL SOUTH Southpole We believe that Paul's motto is Hate all and look at none, when it comes to the weaker sex, for he never gave any of them a tumble. Paul had a special aptitude for Physics and was seen carrying radio books with him all the time this past year. Paul has a record which is not common among boys, for he has never been reprimanded for ex- cessive talking. Orchestra, 2. ELIZABETH SULLIVAN u Betty 1 1 The boys stop and stare as Betty comes into the room. No wonder. Her black eyes and hair are enough to make anyone gaze in admiration. Betty captures every heart with her feminine wiles. As an oriental maiden, Betty would be good, as a French doll, she would be better, but as Mae West, she would be superb. Yes, Betty with all her charms, many times expresses herself in the West-ern style. How does Hollywood get along without her? Maybe some day her chance will come, and we'll see her starring opposite Clark Gable's successor.

CHARLES GALLIMORE Giggles The little boy that made good! Charles used to be that cute little tyke who slipped bashfullyaround the halls suck- ing his thumb. And then the cute little thing had to grow up. Now he is tall and straight and has gained his laurels on the basketball floor. But he was so cute and all the girls liked him so much. Of course, they still do, but just the same -why did he have to grow up? Basketball Squad, 4g Baseball Manager, 4g Geometry Club, 2. NANCY JANE GASS ll YI When one sees a small, curly haired girl tripping down the hall, one may be sure that it is Nancy. A smile and a cheery word from Nancy will brighten anyone's day. That same smile is without doubt the chief reason for her popu- larity. And such a small girl to attempt such a big job as cheer leading! But never the less, Nancy is always full of school spirit and ready to try to make the rest of the school have the same spirit as she has.

SIDN EY GLYNN l I 1 1 Sid is the man! And do the ladies go for him? Or should we say, does he go for the ladies? Well, in either case, he certainly is the perfect ladies' man. We wonder if he ever gets home early after school? We doubt it very much, because he's always loitering in the hallway talking to one girl or another. Nevertheless the boys all envy him and the girls? Y P ? P Football, 2, 3, 45 Baseball, 2, 3, 4g Interclass Basketball, 3, 4, Dra- matic Club, 3g Hi-Y, 4, Play Cast, 4. JOHN GODWIN Johnnie He's just a great big man from the South, minus the big cigah in his mouth. john knows all the answers and everything else besides. When Mr. Beery is at a loss for a witty remark, they are readily and willingly supplied by john. VVe hear his ambition is to be a jolly tar. Well, he's jolly enough now. All he has to do is to add the tar, and he'll be everything your little heart desires. THE RECORD 1 W r so ! 1 jj I 4 ,Jil f 19 1 ae ' l I 1 ,
