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.

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).

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. On the other hand, he is attracted to effeminate beings —Stockertown scoring there. As a bas- ketball star. Less was as unknown as the North Star in the Stone Age until this year. Now he shineth. yea. is very bril- liant in this field. And that's that! Next to Mope. Less” is the prize teaser of the class. Less. do you thank us for this?

(She makes some comical remark.) Frowns disappear. Conversation becomes more cheerful. General smiles. Later—Conversation hilarious! “Eve” is popular chiefly because of her characteristic smile of good fellowship. We'll say for Edclmans. they're strong on quality. Honors: National Oratorical Speaker (4); Glee Club (2) (4); Secretary. Commercial Club (4). ARLEYNE HEIMS Baby Kid Arlcyne is the most petted member of the class. This tiny lady is quite efficient on the basketball floor and. as the girls' captain, she seems to be on pretty good terms with the boys' captain. Here's the girl that comes to meetings with a smile that the dreary and tiresome ride from Stockertown cannot efface. When you find a taking manner and a pleasing face—what’s a man going to do?

Che Comet 1926 EVELYN MESSINGER Eve” Rockie A rush up the steps; a violent opening of the door; a slamming of books—and we have Evelyn. Dancing and men seem to play a big part in the life of this maid, but whatman wouldn't dance with one who is as accom- plished in the art as Evelyn? When she is somebody's stenog” she'll make Tillic the Toiler consider herself a back number. No party is complete without her and she hasn't any extra avoirdupois either. We'll just add that Evelyn's middle name is “Mary Jane. Honors: Glee Club (2): Treasurer. Commercial Club (4). ELIZABETH NEUNER Betty Lizzie” This one! Why every one knows her. for that's Elizabeth Ncuncr! Isn't it great to live within a stone's throw of the school building? Maybe that's the reason so much responsibility is usually shifted to “Betts. But. then, we must have some excuse for her effi- ciency. She's good-natured and jolly and cosy to tease. To know her is to be fond of her. She’s a fine hiker, too. To manage this wayward class is some job and we'll say for Betts that she should be a capable mule-driver after this year's experience. Honors: Class President (3) (4); Comet Staff (4); Glee Club (2) (4); Vice-President. Commercial Club (3) (4); Clats PUy 41; Student Council (3) (4); Vicc-Prctident. Claw (2). IRENE REIMER Renie” Reimer” Laugh and the world laughs with you. love and the males love too. Any one's birthday approaching—Irene would never miss the chance to plan a party, and they're some parties too! Irene's disposition is changeable as April weather, but she docs love to write poetry which is that kind of poetry. We never thought Irene resembled a rooster, but when Mr. Batt accuses the senior members in the main room of cawing” we suspect that's where the idea came from. Irene's pet ambition is to be a teacher and we'll say for her the pupils will be lucky to be tecchcd by such a kind- hearted damsel. Honors: Comet Staff (4); CUw Historian »).- (2) (3) (4); Glee Club (2) (4).
