Nevertheless, his good humor and friendly smile make him lots of friends. Even though Bob blushes very easily, he does not seem to mind arguing with the teachers, Mr. Sudell being the one chosen most. lust ask Bob any question concerning Practical Physics, and the answer will be immediately forthcoming.

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?

LEES Dotty Ever since Dot entered our group in the sophomore year, she has been one of the most useful and popular girls in the school. A class officer for three years and a major character in both the junior and senior plays, her ability and cheerfulness is recognized by everyone. Nevertheless, don't form the impression that Dot's all business. Nay, not so! Her little blond Daisy por- trayal in the senior play and her actions in certain year book meetings prove far otherwise.

MARTIN L. LEWIN Marty Meet our champion ad-salesman! What would the business staff of the Aerial ever have done without Marty's ability to procure ads? Besides this contribution to the school, he has often helped out in publicity cam- paigns and the like, with his speedy car. A nice per- sonality, willingness to help always, and an ever ready smile, all combine in making Marty one of the most liked boys in the class.
