MARIE BROWN “A little nonsense now and then Is relished by the wisest men.” EDWIN COYNER “Eddie” “The sweetness of doing nothing.” DOROTHY PULLEN “Dot” “Love me little, love me long.” Representative Student Council, ’24; Adver- tising Manager Beacon Annual, 24; Class Sec- retary, ’21-’22-’23-’24; Class Treasurer, ’23-’24; Track Medal, ’23; Class Executrix. Besides being our most attractive girl, it has also been suggested that we make Dot the class Beatrice Fairfax. For if there is any heart trouble on which Dot is not an expert we have not been able to find it. She’s always in love with someone and we believe her “af- fairs de coeur” all add to her host of friends and comrades. We have only one fault to find with Dot and that is she just won’t tell who is the man. Marie is about the most happy-go-lucky member of the class. Her winning smile and carefree manner are well known all around the school. Anyone who has seen Marie laboring over the Beacon circulations will admit that she often settles down to hard work. Marie also flashes Annapolis cuff-links, rings, etc. We wonder what lucky mortal she has vamped now. Face all of life’s problems in your care- free manner, Marie, and we are sure you will succeed. Football, ’23-’24; Class Play, ’24. Here’s our class “Lazy Man.” Eddie doesn’t fancy the title much, but of course he can’t help himself. They say he is the laziest man on the fo otball squad. However, if we judge from his playing laziness might be included in the squad’s training next fall. Eddie’s good- natured smile and merry laugh have helped us wile away many an organization period in the old home room. 26

SOL CHARLES WERBLOW “Sol” “The style itself is the mqn.” Did you see Sol “kid” day? Since then we have decided that he will surely become a farmer for he takes the part to perfection. Sol is quiet but does not mind expressing himself when called upon to do so. An excel- lent student with plenty of school spirit. He performs his duties with the ability of one who will succeed. MARY ROYALL “Haste thee nymph, and bring with thee, Jest and youthful jollity.” Giggles, giggles, giggles. What is Mary laughing at now? We sometimes wonder what she finds to laugh at so often, but then “Fun- ny’s” always near and where we find “Funny” we find smiles and giggles. The class as a whole will miss the happy-go-lucky manner and smile of our class chatterbox and giggles. Good luck, Mary, and may you always see the funny side of life. LUCILLE EVELYN PARKER “Fortune favors the bold.” Lucille ran Mary Royall a close second for chatterbox when we held our elections. She is one of the greatest talkers in school and argue — she should enter the debating contest. It is Lucille’s chief delight to explain to Mr. Stanley the disadvantages of exercises. 25

SAM BERNARD ARONOW “Sam” “Smooth runs the water where the brook is deep.” Sam is one of the quietest members of our class. However, when it comes to class spirit or work, Sam is right there. He is a member of that family which seem to win all the medals and official positions which the school affords. 27
