XThc Comet 1926 LESTER EVERETT Less Honk” “Texas Among Nazareth High School's jolly seniors arc the fair commercial group of girls with Lester in their midst. No. Texas is not effeminate.

Nazareth High School WILSON BOERSTLER Mope Cood Lookin' ” Wilson doesn't realize it. but we think his blue eyes would take wonderfully on the silver-sheet. It seems he'd rather experiment in lab” or tease the girls than make use of his optical assets. However, in spite of his teasing, we must admit he's there on the basketball floor and is a good handy-man at social affairs. Wilson adores (?) economics: in spite of this fact, we have an inkling that Mr. Schwartz will be relieved when he is no longer addressed in such bloomin' English. Although Wil- son is rather shy among the girls. Lizzie (don't become excited—she's made of tin) is a clinging friend. Honors: High School Orchestra (I) (2) (3) (4); Class Play (4); Varsity Basketball (4); Glee Club (2). ISABELLA BONSTE1N Izzy Bunny Izzy” would make a good town crier, as she is usually centrally located and doesn't miss any doings” —masculine and otherwise. Izzy's the queen of bobbed hair dancers, in demand as a teacher and partner. Her agility on the floor is nothin' compared to that in the gym during a game. She is a huggin’ guard and a “sneakin’ forward. She is a great admirer of the modern knight in his auto. She studied economics with us. but the course didn't seem to do much good. Think of all that perfectly good money paid for carfares for those week-end visits! Honors: Glee Club (2) (4); Varsity Basket- ball (2) (J (4); Vice-President. Chn (3): cists Play (4); Cos:XT Staff (4). GERALDINE CHILDRESS Jerry Blondie” Honk! Honk! Gangway!” On the horizon doth appear a car speeding toward us with unmusical puffs and pants. Jerry is arrived. Her entrance is breezy, but this girl is more musical than her approach would hint. She can coax anything from Bach to Berlin from the teasing ivories. Jerry'»” blond hair and shell-like complexion attract a second glance. Her virtue is pleasantness: her vice—love of jazz: her distinguishing characteristic is her Charleston gait. Honors: Glee Club (2) (4).

JACOB KNECHT Jake Tempest Hear a victrola reproducing one hundred words a minute? Wrong! It's Jake. But we must admit that when he talks he says something. His natural ability in financial affairs has caused a great demand for him this year. What more con we say of him? Words fail when attacked by ordinary pens. His aim is to be a criminal lawyer. Goodness aid the criminal! Here's a bright thought! “Joke could go bail for John D. if silence weren't golden.

Athletic Association (4): Student Council (4); Publicity Committee (4); Boys' Glee Club (2) (4r- VERNA LICHTENWALNER Brown Eyes V. Viola” Verna is preparing to teach. But we have our doubts about this, as we feel that she will devote her life to an entirely different type of work. Belfast might be small, but there seem to be some mighty interesting people there. Verna's musical ability has been our joy through our High School life. Verna has a leaning toward French characteristics—meaning that you can't better her in an argument. French was a joy Until a boy Cut in on the foreign pace. Honors: Court Start 4): Publicity Staff (3); Vice-President. Class (2): Glee Club (2) (4); Secre- tary. Literary Society (3); National Oratorical Contest Honors (3); Student Council (3); Pub- licity Staff Editor (4).
