Herald Kuney “Punk” After ga ing upon this remarkable example of human intelligence, do you wonder that as a student “Punk” has made a splendid record in all high school subjects. Moreover, he is an all around good fellow who deserves the unlimited success we wish him. Mary Medden A dash, a gasp and a breathless, “I’m here, Miss O’Brien,” always marks Mary’s daily arrival. Mary is an unusual person, laughter-loving, vivacious and in short full of pep. She is also an all-around athlete. No gathering is complete without her, for gloom departs when buoyant Mary enters. She is a decided avorite and always has a smile for each friend. Eva Messer With curly hair and twinkling eyes Eve never lets a laugh go by! Long words are Eva’s specialty, Long word that end in X and osity In fact, she’s quite an English shark Not one of us comes near her mark! Helen Nearpass Four short years ago a shy blackhaired lass entered the class of 1925. Her manner has been well worth of praise, and she helped greatly to strengthen the senior claim to dignity until she developed chickenpox and disappointed us Good luck to you always, Helen. Page 15

Barbara Follette “Bob Woe to man who crosses her path It’s either a kiss, a biff, or a laugh Oh that eye, that baby smile! The hearts she has broken would cover a mile. Fair of figure and fair of face We ne’er could describe her in limited space Ma rgaret Guion Peg Breathes there a girl with soul so dead Who never to herself hath said, “I’d give two bits for that blond head?’’ It would also be hard to find a boy in Mynderse who hasn’t succumbed to the charm of those blue eyes. Mary King We’re proud of Mary. What class wouldn’t be? She has been a shining example of a good student, and to say that '25 is glad of her success is expressing it mildly. Mary is a good listener and a ready comforter. She has always taken a lively interest in school affairs, and the least of her good qualities is her loyalty to the class and her many friends. Horace Knight “Beefy President Knight is our lightweight champion, a knockout among the fair sex of Mynderse. He does a great many other things well. He has the manner grand yet jovial whether he’s escorting a chaperon to a dance or his latest best girl Sh! we’re telling a secret, but he’s lost six pounds. Page 14

Elizabeth Rolfe 44Betty An irresistible gigle— A pair of dancing feet— A sunny smile that’s mighty sweet That’s Betty. I-est you think her just a gay little butterfly, we must tell you the rest. She may be small, but she is a very formidable little executive on committees. Parties simply arc bound to be a success if our Betty is in charge. Dorthea Russell “Dot Dorthea is a joyous child. All her clouds have silver linings. But she isn’t a dreamer by any means. Consult the office for one of those model records everyone covets, but few attain. Surely the future spells success for Dorothea. Paul Simson “Sap have a heart. Miss O’Brien. All that?” Sometimes we wonder if Sap a heart himself. But we know one thing, he has a fence. Ask Paul about it. He is really gifted, possessing a unique personality. One might call him a conscientious objector. Here’s to your future success in Union. Herman Tennant “Snooku?ns 4 If a s(Jt answer turneth away wrath, Herman would fill the bill. This gentle spoken youth is anything but a total loss as a lady’s man. Page Mary, please! Then, too, he can play football, and as our president, brought us through our Junior year and the Prom with a very respectable bank balance, a rather note worthy achievement. Page 16
