D ANDERSON H. ANDERSON M. ANDERSON R. ANDERSON E. BARTON J, BE'LL E BLOMQUIST W. BOYCE J BRADFORD F. BREDT M. BROWN F BYERS Four qears aqo some 30'0 Central Grammar Q Q Q Q DOROTH EA ANDERSON t'Andy is just wild about dogs-any kind of dog, but especially Scotties. Her canine friends must have some influence over her, because she was dog- gone good as chairman of the class day program. HELEN ANDERSON Drawing pictures of people whom she doesn't like is Helen's hobby. She really is a good artist too, having been chosen as Art Editor for the M , and getting special honors in art. Helen's ambition is to be Neisa McMein II. More power to you, Helen. MARGIT ANDERSON VVhcn one sees Marge she seems rather quiet. But just wait until someone starts her talkingg she can hardly be stopped. Marge has acquired the ability to send notes without getting caught. To live up to her last name, 4'Marge'i won special honors in Swedish. ROBERT ANDERSON Gifted with a wonderful voice Bob has taken many laurels. He was in the Double Quartet and was the Pirate Chief in The Pirates of Penzance. Bob is quite angelic too, for he sings in the choir at church falmostj every Sunday. EVELYN BARTON Just a blue-eyed blonde who likes to go motor- cycling. VVas it she who interested her brother in motorcycles or vice versa? Remember she was one of the girls who had long golden locks but look at her now. JOHN BELL Johnny is a fellow who likes to eat peanuts in bed. QNot bad sport is itj. Johnny supported the drum section in the band his first two years and spent the last two pounding on the idea of getting acquainted with all the women. EDITH BLOMQUIST Blonde, curly-haired, blue-eyed, that's Eedie . She has always had her heart set on tennis and has greatly admired Helen Wills Moody. Eedie proved herself a smart racketer by winning the senior girls' championship. WALTER BOYCE Everyone knows that Walt is a whiz at the art of handling and swatting a baseball. Hardly anyone knew though that VValt possesses the art of rambling on the keys. Whether he learned this art in ten les- sons or years of practice we will probably never know. JUNE BRADFORD Brandi, is one of the few who have really taken an active part in everything. June is quite athletically inclined, having earned her NIV in her fourth year, besides June took part in Dramatic productions, Lit- erary organizations, and held several class offices throughout her fo11r years. FOUREST BREDT Forrie,, is one of those boys who really likes Civics and can speak intelligently about various af- fairs that have happened or are happening. You should have heard him discuss the Monetary Policyw of President Roosevelt. He seemed to under- stand it, which is more than we can do. MILDRED BROWN Using Milly's own words. An English teacher I fain would be. To teach in Moline High would certainly suit me . So says our class poet. She wouldn't do bad as a girls' athletic coach either, be- cause one of her chief pastimes is sports. FRANK BYERS Junior , is one of our Guernsey lads, who tickles the ivories like Moszkowski himself. His change from preacher in the Junior Play to taxi driver in the Senior reminds us of the fact that he likes to take girls for rides in the milk trucks. TWENTY EIGHT

4 'QPF GEHEASS GDB? INDEML In the usual class political row Dorothy Hanson won the honor of conducting the business for the January graduates as President. One of her duties was making arrangements for Graduation and Class Day. Frank Byers, Vice-President, gave Dot advice when needed. The task of pulling the last few cents from a person,s pocket for class dues was handled by Doris Oakley, lNIiss Day and Bliss Jeffers were the two faculty members who graciously contributed their time to hear whether we would have Eskimo pies or cider. The usual run of class parties contributed to the social standing of the class, Around January the grads got ex- clusive and gave a dance for themselves and their guests. TWENTY-SEVEN NSON BYERS

ELEANORE CARLSON A tall, slender blonde who has that lovely and friendly smile for everyone. She also has plenty of Rock Island boy friends. VVhat's the trick? How about sticking with some of the home town lads? H ELEN CARLSON One of the Helen Carlsons, Marguerite to be ex- plicit. Helen M. lists her ambition as to be an old maidf' To be exact Helen, we're suspicious of this, because we have seen things that contradict it. For instance: Noon aud. scenes. E. CARLSON H. CARLSON R. CARLSON A. CLAERHOUT I. COLMARK J COWAN J. CRAWFORD A DE BAKER J DONAWAY E. DWIGHT D EHLERS M ENGSTROM 0 Q 0 a intellects left the portals of that 0 0 0 RUTH CARLSON Ruth was given the middle initial Xl, by the of- fice. That's what happens when there are too many Carlsons by the name of Ruth. Ruth X also marked the spot for Mr. Jones to catch one of his girls on one of his tangled interrogations. ALBERT CLAERHOUT Minnie was a hot shot at sinking baskets. We could always count on him to come through with a swisher when it was most needed. He didnit do bad at football either. Spent most of his spare time running errands for a certain little Miss. IRENE COLMARK VVho says the old-fashioned girl is gone? Here's one modern Miss who really has made sewing her hobby. And from what we hear she's good at sew- ing on buttons to making a complete outfit. JESSE COWAN Levee', is interested in radio-in fact so interest- ed that he plans to be a radio engineer. Levee has a good start in the other lines already, because any- one who was in his Civics class remembers he was some broadcaster . JANET CRAWFORD Jan craves to be a designer. Just what these designs are and what they are to be used for sort of puzzles us. Here's hoping Janet will give up de- signs long enough so she can be on time and Frank won't have to wait. TWENTY NINE ALICE DEBAKER Who can forget old Hiawatha Alice as the In- dian of The First Thanksgiving? Remember it was the November committee of A. D. C. that gave it in Roll Call. The way she said How sounded like she just came from a reservation. JACK DONAWAY Curly-haired, little, and rather quiet. Jack has dramatic ability as he showed in the Junior Play. Jackys real name is Jolm, but for some reason that hasn't stuck with him. Perhaps it's because John sounds too big for a little fellow. ELIZABETH DWIGHT Pete,' is a good pal to everyone. She has her heart set on flowers and hopes someday to own a flower shop. Sweet flowers plus her sweet disposi- tion ought to mean plenty of customers, if she opens that shop. DOROTHY MAE EHLERS Valedictorian with a 97 average, that's something! Whether this scholastic ability will carry out her thoughts of being an old maid, and owning a purple roadster and a police dog, we would hate to proph- esy-but we doubt the old maid idea. MABEL ENGSTROM Mabel is quiet, reserved, and a friend to everyone who knew her. Our Shakespearian knowledge must eek out and, as Mr. Shakespeare would say, Her voice was ever soft and low, an excellent thing in woman?
