PATRICIA NANCY CLAXTON “Tranqu illity! thou better name than all the family of Fame.” Tranquil is indeed an apt dis- cription of Pat, for no one can go about her tasks as quietly and yet as perseveringly as she. Her work decorating for Proms will be long remembered because of her ability to work calmly, yet cheerfully, until she accomp- lishes what she sets out to do. Glee Club 2,3; Prom Committee 3,4. HARRY LEO COUTURE, JR. Brevity is the soul of wit. Harry is very quiet and reserved, but his outstanding ability to take a joke and his willingness to give assistance at any time make him a welcome addition to any group. Prom Committee 4. JOHN WAYNE DRYDEN “Our youth we can have but for today; we may always find time to grow old. The high school carridors won't be the same without John's laughter. He is always ready for a good time and seems to be perpetually cheerful, We are sure that if we meet him fifty years from now, he will still be the same pleasant affable person he is now.

May all of her days be filled with the happiness she exudes, WILLIAM GUSTAF ERICKSON And that laugh, like sunshine, darts into many a sunless heart.
