She is very brilliant, or else she is the world's best bluffer. However, she excels in anything she undertakes, from singing to dish- washing. Guy is a transfer this year from Dietrich. He has made his mark as a basketball player. He is very likeable and remarkably easy to be- come acquainted with. ,lack came from Hammond in his Junior year. The fact that Jack is tall and easy to look at is no doubt the reason for his following of grade school girls. A versatile creature, as a pianist, golfer and student, Marj is with the best. Her hobby is displaying her vocabulary-both native and for- eign. A blonde, who prefers gentlemen. Granny is very jolly and carefree and the temper that goes with red hair is usually con- cealed. She is a leader among her friends and is outstanding in Girl Scout work. Stan , better known as Oowa , stands among the highest in his studies. He finds plenty of time to play, but when work is to be done, he has it done. The Watt of all-Okaw fame. That athletic being of athletes. His motto is, If a thing is worth doing at all, it is worth doing well . Nick lives up to this even in his innocent fun. The fact that Jo is the pep dynamo of M. C. H. S., radiating more enthusiasm than anyone else, accounts for her being president of the M. W. O. L. Club and cheer leader for two years. l18l ,

It is therefore our intention to emphasize the fact that we have hnished and not to say that we started our course back in '27. The very act of finishing implies a start at something. Therefore, it is the privilege of those who finished to enumerate the reasons for success. ln '27 fifty-two Freshmen bravely plunged into the morass of a higher knowledge. Talent was centered on the political campaign. The returns were: president, -lames Kratzg vice-president, Charles XVatts: secretary, Everett Glasgowg treasurer, Clarence Plankenhorn. A treasurer and no funds! This difficulty was solved by a bakery sale, and with the accumu- lation of wealth began our social career. Some found the venture of the previous year above their heads and dis- appeared from sight. Charles Vkfatts was our leader, with Doris Ellis as vice-president, Annabel Royce as secretary, and Robert Jones as treasurer. Thirty-live still followed the appointed path in the Junior year. The offices went to Clarence Plankenhorn, president: Bob Jones, vice-presidentg Bill Scott, secretaryg Bud XVheeler, treasurer. Qur artistic ability was re- warded by the prize for the best looking lioat in the Senior Circus. The Junior play filled the treasury and the Junior-Senior banquet emptied it. The final year of our high school career saw a successful Senior Circus, for which we earnestly attempted to find something new and as different as possible. The event and climax of the activities of each class-the Senior play-concluded our four years at M. C. H. S. Bud XVheeler has led the Seniors as president through a memorable year. All the virtues of friendliness are embodied in this happy-gi1-lucky boy. Bud is a good student as well as being prominent in school activities. .Xnnabel Royce, with her sweet disposition, has proved a gem of the Senior Class as vice-president. I-ler diligence has been rewarded by high scholarship and leading parts in the social life. Bill Holmes is the secretary of the Senior Class. Bill is a conversa- tionalist gifted with an entertaining humor. His friends are many and he himself is the definition of personality. Doris Ellis as treasurer attends to the business of the Senior Class. She is friendly and smiling. Ellis has a high place on the lleacon staff and is another reason for our high scholastic standing. rm ff I EEF- J: rex

,E 1- -31 . l flgl f-iz, 1flv ! A friend in need? He is a friend in- deed! A good word to all: from all a good word. NVithout him, many a job would be left unfinished-even undone. Rosy tbecause of her cheeksl is very quiet and reserved to those who do not know her, but among her friends. jolly and talkative. Not everyone can be cheerful after having chickenpox the very week of semester exams, her hrst absence from school, but that is Elsie's spirit, which makes her well liked by everyone. Bob gazes on the world with a pair of twinkling blue eyes: his ever-ready wit bubbles over. and everyone is merry. He is earnest in his work and nonchalant in his actions. As president of the Freshman Class, Pud gave us an excellent start. He is very quiet and easy-going until he enters the held of battle and the honor of his school is at stake. Then, behold! Peggy spent the first three years of her high school career at Butler but her pleasant smile and cheerful disposition have won her many friends during her short stay with us. Goodnatured and of a friendly personality. Georgie is always looking for some way in which to help her friends. Although she has many accomplishments, she does not care to stand forth in her glory. Lindy came to us as a Sophomore. He is very likeable and willing and, despite his small stature. he has found a place on the varsity bas- ketball squad. l19l l i 11 JQHMLWL1-fwf zAe,.,i,M,7 i JdfU l Jac!
