Milly October 2, 1915 Still achieving, still pursuing Milly's what you might call an all-around girl, and we know that in the future she'll make some man happy. She has a great interest in Girl Scout Work and makes a fine leader. Perhaps some day she'll run a society for the uplifting of gangsters. Who knows? ln reality there's nothing that Milly won't try. just give her a chance and she'll make good, BENTON LOUIS HUCK New Britain, Conn. Benny May 7, 1916 Qui Sexcuse, S'accuse Benny is one of those fellows who manages to Gnd trouble without looking for it. l-le's just a happy-go-lucky boy who doesn't have a care in the world. The faculty has lectured him incessantly, but we've come to the conclusion that there's nothing between his ears to retain what he's been told. And as for gum chewing! Wrigley's will soon be taking a first mortgage on the mint. l-le's always got some wisecrack ready and it doesnt make a bit of difference whether he's in a classroom or not. NVell, we've ridden him hard but he can take it. So long, Benny, EVA S. HYDE Berlin, Conn. 'l'op.ry November 28, 1917 1 fnd earth not grey but rosy This little girl needs no introduction to those who attended Class Night, but for the benefit of the unfortunate, she is our petite actress with the smiling countenance that won her many admirers, We wonder who the lucky fellow was. Eva's not the beautiful but dumb type as you will well agree, for she completed the course in two and one-half years. Good luck to you, Eva. Amphion Club, Class Night Cast, Girls' League. IVAR KROG JENSEN Eids Voll, Norway October 21, 1915 Eat, drink, and be merry- What would our football games or rallies be like without good old lvar to pep the crowd up as one of the cheer leaders, Although he likes dancing and good times in general, he has been a good student. This is rather an unusual combination. We hope that lvar will soon be a cheer leader for some big college or university. Good luck, lvar! Cheer Leader. MARY AGNES HORTON New Britain, Conn. September 14, 1916 Life is long if you know how to use it Mary is one of the prominent girls of our class, always with a smile and cheery greeting, She is an accomplished swimmer as well as a dramatic star. Remember her in Class Night????7 And how Mary used to love Hammonasset, still does, and the life guards down there, Did you ever see Mary without gum777 What kind was it4Beech- nut? Never mind Mary, we all wish you success in whatever you decide to become. Page Twenty-one

ARLINE ELEANOR HICKOK New Britain, Conn. Bearisy january 5, 1916 I'm very fond of water Arline is a great girl, full of pep, vim, and vigor, with a disposition that radiates cheer to those around her. Of oourse we all know you like the water, Arline, but whats the big attraction of Great Hill Lake in the winter? Girls' League, Glass Night Cast, ALVAR PHILIP JOHNSON New Britain, Conn, A'Swede September 21, 1916 MFitted for girls, a ladies' man '4Phi1 --as he is called by certain sorority girls is quite a ladies' man. He is to be seen at all the dances where the pretty girls go, and always with the prettiest. ln the classroom he is in the habit of making innocent remarks which stir the class. His straight face looks comical at times and often fools his friends, too. His friends do not realize what a friend he is until they are in need of one. 3' V 7- ' fy ' ff. l'1 '1'r2' 'I'-Y -imviwfof 'tri Q17 Y' r TY? ill, E N' f ,- ,X-F. 1 f-1, '- H' Q- w 2.2.2411 c 'Lf 's '- J .LJSQ .5 .a...+.,?.t's.fa.f.. ,.l-,,::t,l .al ,Alai Page Twenty

Swede expects to get a job soon and buy a car for some lucky girl. h We are sure of one thing anyway and that is, he will never overwork imself. ELLEN CHRISTINE JOHNSON Woodstack, Ill. April 29, 1915 Short reckonings make long Friends Ellen is what we call an all-around one hundred per cent girl. She has a beautiful disposition, is a good worker-just ask Miss Glover- and is pleasant to every one, From what we know she's just Ari All-American Girl . Theres no need to go into a detailed description, folks, just look at her picture and give your eyes a treat. One at a time boys, don't crowd! GRETA HARRIET JOHNSON New Britain, Conn. Swede September 27, 1916 The Best is yet to be Although it wasn't homework that took up her time Swede was always kept busy by a boy named Bert .

Girls' League. WALTER MAURICE JOHNSON New Britain, Conn. 'iPeanuts October 13, 1915 Small in stature great in mind Peanuts is our little fellow with the big smile, Smallness didn't hamper him in any way, for if he couldn't see over someone's shoulder he was apt to climb over and say, One side please, let a man have a look. We notice that the girls don't seem to mind whether he's little or not! Peanuts is an all-around good chap, full of fun, studious Qonce in a whileb and good looking.
