'2T. Margaret is the littlest bit of dignity in the Senior Class-but, what she can do! Margaret is always exempt from exams. Ma'ret is always ready for a good time. She has a jolly nature and her easy-going disposition is the wonder of the class. Her many activities attest her popularity with Seniors and others. MA'RET FRANCIS STRINGER DUFFY, JR. All great men are dying: I don't feel well myself. Although Francis has not been with us during all our high school career, still we find him a valued member of the class. He believes in the old adage, work. So with that as a motto, we all wish for Francis a huge success in whatever he undertakes. DUFF IDA GOLDMAN I'm big, 'tis true, but my knowledge is bigger. Fashion Show, 'ZZ4: Literary Soriety, '24-'25: History Club, '25-'26: Librarian, '25-'2li: Student Count-.l, 'ZZ6. Who is the rather skinny young girl with curly black hair going into the com- mercial room? Why, Ida, of course. She never has the blues and has always made her grades with flying colors. We're glad that Ida is among our high school friends and we wish her happiness in life. JOHN JOSEPH GASKILL Gaiety is the souI's health: sadness its poison. Orchestra, '22-'23-'24-'25-'26-'2T: Band, '22-'22S: Stu- dent Council, '25: Football, '26: Baseball, '2li 2T: Basketball, '2T: Cub Football, '23, Here's one of the best boys in our class. His grades are good, his basketball is out- standing. And what would the orchestra be without him? We don't know what pro- fession he will pursue, but we know that whatever it is, he will be at the top of the ladder. JOHNNIE lTWEXTY-THREE!

Assn., '25-'26-'27: English Club, '24-'25-'26. Who is that scintillating basketball for- ward on our team? Why, that is Buh. She is one of the best athletes that the Class of '27 can boast of. She is depend- able, loyal, sincere, and business-like. Buh is an ideal friend, cheerful, kind, and sympathetic. c4BUHn KENNETH ADRIAN BELL I am sure care is an enemy of life. Athenian Literary Society, '24: Science Club, '25: His- tory Club, '26-'27: Monogram Club, '27: Athletic Association, '24-'25-'26-'27: Varsity Football, '24- '25-'26: Varsity Basketball, '27g Varsity Baseball, '24-'25-'26-'27. Bell is one of the handsomest boys in the Senior Class and certainly one of the most attractive. He is a true, helpful friend. Kenneth is a good athlete. He is Hne to talk to, and most pleasant to think of. Kenneth is a good student and every- body likes him. KIBELLY! JULIA McKINN E DAVIS A rare girl-noble and true, Full of good sense and good humor, too. Fashion Show, '2-1: Athletic Assn., '25-'27: Athenian Literary Society, '25: English Club, '26: French Club, '27: Art Editor of The Cub, '27. Julia is a fulfillment of true worth in being, not seeming. With a hand ever ready to improve things by her art, Fez is not only one of the artistic type, but she is a star intellectually, which has fre- quently been proven in our geometry class. We are sure that she will succeed as a teacher of home economics. uFEZvr EDWARD BELLAMAH He added to the sum of human joy. History Club, '2T5 Athletic Association, '25-'26: Cub Football, '23g Football, '25-'26: Baseball, '26-'275 Asst. Manager Basketball, '27. Boochie' 'is a boy with an everlasting smile and this smile helps cheer up the Senior Class a great deal, especially 11-B. He has plenty of the real school spirit even if he does lose his books often. He will be a true blue friend to everyone. BOOCHIE

English Club, '25-'26, History Club, '26-'27, Student Council, '26, Elva Mae is hard to describe, because she is so quiet, which probably accounts for her being a good student. She is a true, lovable friend and all of us will always be glad to remember her. ELVA GERALD COLVIN Manners-the final and perfect flower of noble character. Asst. Mgr. Football, '25, Asst. Mgr. Basketball, '25, Secretary Student Council, '25, Athenian Literary Society, '25, Science Club, '26, English Club, '27, Basketball, '26: Chief Marshal, '26, Oration Medal, '25: The Itomancersf' '27, Triangular Debate, '27, Debaters Medal, '27. With his friendly manner and his con- sideration for other people, he wins the hearts of all with whom he associates. He is a loyal friend, a good student, but when the occasion demands he turns villain and walks away with dramatic honors. Gerald is a true American youth. GERALD MARGARET HAZEL EWELL Her valor and her mind Prove her superior of her kind. Home Economics Fashion Show, '24, Literary Society, '25, History Club, '26-'27. We have found Hazel to be quiet and unassuming during her entire high school career, but there are many of us who would like to have her knowledge and her grades. Her horror is Geometry, but in some way she manages not only to pass but to make good grades. HAZEL JAMES BAXTER DAWSON He is great who is what he is from nature, and who never reminds us of others. Student Council, '24, Mgr. Bruin, '25, Literary So- ciety, '25, Toastmaster Junior-Senior Banquet, '26, Secretary English Club, '26-'27: The Romancersj' '27: Triangular Debate, '27, Editor The Bruin, '26-'27, Senior Class Poet, '26-'27, Hi-Y Club, '25-'26-'27. James has stood out as a literary genius ever since his entrance into high school. A woman-hater is what he professes to be, but, way down in his heart, we believe it isn't quite so bad as that. With his writ- ing ability and other superlatives we ex- pect great things of 1 PERCY
