E FLAME CHARLES EMMETT ROSS Chuck Charles E. Ross is' an industrious lad, VVith a vocabulary which would make any one mad. Fourth Honor Student, Baseball, Manager Football, President Athletic Association, Senior Basketball, Flame Staff, Secre- tary-Treasurer Civic Club, Debating Team, Ring Committee. Charles is one of our class hustlers. This was proven by the way he managed our foot,- ball team and helped prepare the new field for the first day of action. On top of this he was able to grab off fourth honors. His exemptions were only made possible by the overlooking on the part of a few teachers, of his recess periods with certain other dig- nified seniors. MARY VIRGINIA TAYLOR Taylor Here we have beauty and Brains combined 'Tis rumored that Ziegfield has her signed. Ring Committee, French Club Virginia is one of our class belles. She ex- pects to go to State where we expect her to be the Campus queen. Her future life is uncertain, but the crystal ball of the mystic sees a few ? masculine faces. Nuf ced. CLYDE BOWERS SNHTH Smitty Slick For our Football team t'was always a pity, To play a game without Captain Smitty. Captain Football, Captain Baseball, Basketball Smitty our old reliable kid, even if he does sleep through most of his classes. Some college is going to get a fine athlete and some girl- - a wonderful husband. Don't disap- point us Smitty. EMMA KATHRYN HARPER ..Kat,, A golden haired beauty, how she loves Tech Of success we wish her many a peck. Assistant Editor Flame, Cheer Leader. Operetta. This fun loving classmate of ours has the ambition to attend Tech where she may see him every day. She threatens to study journalism, but this will only be a means to an end: in a few more years she'll be bossing one of Carnegie's football stars. Best of luck, Kat.

WILLIAM LUTHER MCDERMOTT i.Billy,, A clever young chap is our President Bill, When he works, he works with a will.f?l Presldent Class, Treasurer Athletic Associa- tion, Business Manager Flame , Civic Club Billy's greatest ambition is to be a Sheik. After seeing Rudolph Valentino he is crazy to imitate him. The only thing he now needs in order to achieve his ambition is to have Chuck Ross's wavy hair. Another aspira- tion of his is to become an architect. Here's hoping he designs our new auditorium. SARA JESSIE MCCHAIN ifilessn Brains and beauty are hard to find, But here they are side by side. Valedictorian, Flame Staff, French Club Civic Club Finleyville is noted for its beauty, so we can account for Jess being beautiful. How- ever when it comes to brains we're stuck. Jessie is a regular sport, with lots of pep and class spirit. Her present interests seem to be centered around drug stores? ? ? ? We are looking for big things in the future from our first honor student. WENDELL ROBERT CARLSON Hvveni, Editor-in-Chief Flame, Vice President Class, Fifth Honor Student, Ring Commit- tee, Basketball Manager, Assistant Foot- ball Manager, Senior Basketball, Civics Club. XVendell Robert first opened his eyes on this big world in Greensburg: in 1916 he came to live in Monongahela. His enthusi- asm for athletics leads him to follow up all sports, and he is present at all our games, far and near. His classmates think him kind, congenial and ambitious. Chuck Ross is his favorite pal at school and in the Ford. He may be a distant relative of Stonewall Jackson, who knows! Success to Wendell in his journalistic career. MARY LOUISE HOFFMAN nsuei, A versatile lass is our clever Sue How sweet you feel when she smiles at you. Captain Basketball, Secretary-Treasurer Class President French Club, Cheer Leader, Flame staff, Class Donor. Captain Sue is one of our best liked Sen- iors, and M. H. S. will surely be sorry to loose her from the basket ball team. Sue doesn't know what she is going to be but she cruelly declines to brighten the life of any would-be suitor. Look for Sue as captain of the Pitt Pantherettes a few years from now.

Roy's poems To Altha make Bobby Burn's Highland Mary look sick. Roy's ambition is to become a great surgeon, but we think he had better stick to love lyrics. But with Altha for his inspiration how could he help but succeed in whatever Work he undertakes? ALTHA YEU RITH WALL Altha Altha VVall, tall slender and slim, Rides with Roy Coatsworth ln his big hunk a' tin. Altha is one of our dark haired beauties. She is seldom seen alone, especially in the halls at noon. We hear she is going to teach, but no matter what she chooses, We wish her lots of luck. SAMUEL HENRY KLINGENSMITH Sammy Sam, Sam, the sleepy man Sleeps the day through, whenever he can. Civic Club, Orchestra lt sure is lucky for Sam, that most of the teachers overlook an occasional nap, or two. Sam's philosophy is, Blessed is the man who invented sleep. However if there is mis- chief brewing and he's awake, he's always right there. lf Sam ever learns to go to bed at night like other people, we know his days will be full of success. ZELLA MARGARET STOY V Hzeun A sweet little Finleyville lass, Zella Within these four years has captured a fella: He prints very often, for us, our 'Flame, And we don't think it necessary to write his name. French Club Zella, the belle of the Chemistry Class, is another one of us. Altho her mind is usually at the other end of town, she is always ready to take part in anything that is going on. We wonder if she will be a school teacher or -what?
