THE COMET ROCCO BELLO “Rocy” “Rocy,” as he is known by his friends, is quite an ac¬ complished musician. According to this fellow, school is an unnecessary evil. When the 3:30 buzzer rings, Rocy’s up and out on his way home with never a worry. Never¬ theless, Rocy is an all-round good fellow, and may soon be wearing the khaki of the Army. THERESA BELSO “Terry” Theresa is our little blonde friend from Dexter. Al¬ though she has many girl friends, her friendliness ends here, for she remains aloof to the opposite sex. We won¬ der if “Joe” doesn’t interest her a tiny bit? Her skill and eagerness on the hockey field and the basketball floor indicate her vitality and enjoyment of sports. Hockey (1) (2), Captain (3); Volley Ball (1) (3), Captain (2); Basketball (1) (2) (3); Baseball (1) (2); Commercial Club (1) (2) (3). TRUMAN BITTENBENDER “Spit” “Spit,” an athletic type of boy, is a Hecktown lad. As half-back on the football team, he helped the team win many a victory. School isn’t Truman’s first love, for his main interest centers around a certain miss from Macada. Football (1) (2) (3); Class basketball (1) (2) (3).

VIRGINIA BARTRON “Ginny” Happy-go-lucky Ginny hails from Hecktown. Her meat is a roller skating rink or a group of boys. Ginny is very active in sports, especially hockey and basketball.

STERLING BATH “Sterling” Sterling-—pesty, dreamy, and sometimes quiet—is one of our students from Belfast. Outside of being a tease in room 29, he is sincere in his work, even if he “doesn’t get it” sometimes. At present Sterling’s attention is focused on a dark-haired sophomore from his own home town. Football (2). GLADYS BEAL “Reds” “Well, I just can’s get it!”—Gladys’ puzzled expres¬ sions are the source of enjoyment for chemistry and Ger¬ man students; nevertheless, she doesn’t give up very easily. Her trim figure plus her pleasing personality will be two of her greatest assets in aiding her to become one of our “women in white.” Commercial Club (1); Dramatic Club (1); Blue and White Standard (2), Associate Editor (3); Senior Play, Minor (3); Prom, Refreshment Committee (2).

EDITH CLAUSS “Edie” Little but spunky! Edith’s plump but lively form, dark hair, flashing smile, and cheery greeting attract the dull¬ est person’s eye.
