Hope you don't get lonesome, Vic. JEANNE HILDA FRANKEL Horses, dogs, and men , particu- larly the latter, make Jeanne's life anything but dull. May you always find equal enjoyment in everything you do in your life to come. BENJAMIN FRANKLIN lien Franklin-name sounds very familiar. Oh yes, he was a very famous patriot. If Ben does half as well as his namesake, we'll be mighty proud of him. CHARLES JOHN FREDERICK Chas, Charlie, or Chuck-call him what you want, but he still amounts to the same ambitious, good natur- ed boy. His talent shows up in his trumpet playing. Maybe we have a future Spivak. LARRY FR EIIER ICKS Larry is a newcomer here but cer- tainly has accomplished a lot in a short time. He's an assistant editor of the Elmprint, took part in a radio program, and numerous other activities. He likes art, and would like to go to Pratt to study it.

MARY ISABEL GALLAGH ER Sweet Rosie O'Grady fits Mary Isabel. As sweet as they come, at- tractive, and intelligent are some of her factors.

WA LTER CHARLES DEROLF This lad would be quite a playboy if he had a chance. He uses up some of his excess exuberance in the gym, which, he says, is the only good thing about school. That's a pretty strong statement, from such an easygoing fellow. RUTH ESTELLE DEVLIN Ruth, the girl with the golden voice, has a charming personality and is well liked by all. Hobby, musicg ambition, to study music, and wouldn't we be surprised and proud to find her in the Metropolitan some day 'T LEWIS FREDERICK DIXON Lewis always looks a bit sleepy, but really has plenty of ambition.

She's la popular gal and full of fun. She is a welcome member to any circle. Something will be noticeably lack- ing when she is gone. MAXINE E. EPSTINE Poet laureate of the senior class, Mac says she spends her time sleeping and meditating. Quite an athlete, she has gathered laurels for her basketball team, and has brought it to success many times. ANN EVANS Ann is an appropriate name for this lass.

Someday when you're using the telephone you'll hear her voice say What number, please Y GEORGE EVANS George is always busy and never has time for loafing. He earned his football letter this year. This modern Einstein is headed for high places. Nothing can stop you when you want something bad enough. DAVID FINKELSTEIN Athletic ability, all scholastic, and an all-round guy make up this out- standing senior. Fink's quiet at times but soon snaps out of it. He showed his athletic ability on the football field, and he's active in the Ushers Club. He plans to go to the University of Pennsylvania and pre- pare for business. Good luck, Dave. RUTH MARY FISHER Modest, cheerful, and friendly, de- scribe Ruth to a UT . When asked her favorite subject, she answered biology . Likewise, Hbiologyl' was the reply for her most disliked sub- ject, Hmm, could this be possible? DONALD RAY FLUEGEL Here is a fellow who really would put Harry James to shame with his trumpet. He is sometimes forget- ful, he is blushable, and he's not much of a business man, but never- theless he is a very able individual.
