THE BEACON 13 DOROTHY MAY RYCE “Dot” “I have no other but a woman’s rea- son. I think it so, because I think it so.” Student Council ’20, ’21. Class President ’20. Annual Play ’20. Secretary Philolethian Literary So- ciety ’21. Secretary Commercial Club ’21. Vice-Secretary Philolethian Liter- ary Society ’20. Third Honor Student ’22. Class Historian ’22. Dorothy has her opinions and does not hesitate to give them. She is our best all-round girl. The ready know- ledge on a great many things gave her third honor. Her jolly manner and wining smile has made her many friends. ROBERT SILK, Jr. “Trotsky” “The man of independent mind.” Student Council ’21. Vice-President Philolethian Liter- ary Society ’21. Vice-President French Club ’21. Chairman Progressive Committee Commercial Club ’20. Opinions and ideas of his own, he has and you bet he has no fear in ex- pressing them, but we honor a man who tells us what he thinks, despite opinions of others. It’s funny how Senior boys find so much enjoyment in the company of “Freshie Maidens,” isn’t it?

12 THE BEACON CLARENCE FRANKLIN NORSWORTHY “Bunny” “A good heart is better than all the heads in the world.” We might call Clarence our “ole Reliable.” In our tempestuous class meetings, our heated arguments, and our great variety of opinions, he stands by and supports the right side. Clarence keeps his counsel to himself and for that we honor him. FRANK LEONARD PAPE “Joe” “A proper man as ever trod.” Class Creed ’22. Here we have the perfect gentle- man, manly and courteous. We be- lived that the whole dignity of the Senior Class rested upon his willing shoulders and we considered Frank quite reserved and dignified until Esther’s Xmas Party, but we know that our conservative gentleman likes a good time, too.

14 THE BEACON MARY BEATRICE VANDERSLICE “Venus” “A maiden good to look at, sir, and oh! so jolly.” The girl with the Golden Locks! With the twinklingeyes and delicious sense of humor, she welcomes all fun. Many have succumbed to her wiles. Good luck to you, Beatrice, in all your conquests. BESSIE SIBLEY SMITH “Bebe” “What thou art, we know not.” Class Secretary ’21. Secretary Philolethian Literary So- ciety ’21. Basket Bal l ’19. Critic Philolethian Literary Society ’ 21 . Valedictorian ’22. Bessie is different. She is a mix- ture of seriousness, common sense and a light vein of foolishness. A grow- ing capacity for a great store of knowledge led Bessie to he the shark of our class. With her splendid tal- ents she cannot fail to succeed.
