THOMAS D. HUGHES Tom Here comes Tomi the likable young man whom we can see Cand hearl every morning before school arguing with Mr. Bishop. His favorite pastime seems to be eating cmd swapping candy in Trig. class, where he has given Mr. Beery many gray hairs and weary wrinkles. Recently, Tom has been having a great time with another of Mr. Bishop's struggling Physics stu- dents, though she denies it most vehemently. His ready smile and quiet humor make him a favorite with all his classmates and friends.

One of the four horsemen , the four male mem- bers of the fourth year Latin class, Al's favorite villain is a fellow called Vergil, who has brought many gray hairs to helpless seniors. ln spite of all these problems his willing nature and cheerful disposition make him popular with everyone.

IACKSON Mae A bright and happy girl is Mary with a helping hand for anyone at anytime. She is very generous, espe- cially when it comes to giving her friends candy in class7 but she knows it wouldn't be very polite to chew while her pals look on. No indeed! Mary wouldn't do that. Seriously speaking, she is quite a religious girl. Some day we may hear of her as a missionary in a foreign field. Who knows?
