She is very dependable and is the Business'Manager of the Ampten- liian. She never even notices that there is a male sex in the world. She chums with the almnni and also is found at tl1e vliurc-li with Erma. Sc-otch is very business like in her IIIIDBSIYIIIICG and conduct. She has been an active nneniber of the S. B. A. for four years and jumped center for the class team. She sings a deep alto and blossomed out quite famously as Togo in Cl18l'l'Y Blossoms. Scotch is going to keep, ou blossoming. VICTOR THOMAS' RUTH Y Commerc-ial ffvw 'No boasting like Cb fool, This deed FZZ do before the purpose cools Behold the coimnanding and important hearing of our class president. whose eareer as a Student is very ac-tive. During his first year he was one of the quiet members of the 4-lass but this did not last throughout the four years. lVe do not know of the affairs of his heart, but we do know that many a sigh is heaved for a nieniher of the fair sex of 1925. When he works he says little but does inueh. He has been our Class President, a lneniher of the l+ldito1'ia1 Staff, Inter-Class Debator. and winner of second prize in the Oratorieal Contest. He is :1 hard worker for the class and the school, and we appreciate his endeavors. Best luck to you Vic , AMPTENNIAN, '23 Twenty Two:

RUTH ABIGAIL YUUNG C01Il1ll9I'lTlIl1 Ruth, Until her lust yeur in High SL-hool Ruth lived in the 1,1eigl1llo1'ho0d of Stone Church. Kreiglersville, but her parents had pityupon her :md moved to NO1'l'hillll1ltOll, thus re- lieving ,her long and tiresome walk. She usually wgllked, but oceasioinnlly she rode. und the iirst time she 0111118 along in her 1md's Dodge we all salt up and molg notice. One niight think Ruth wus il quiet and slow girl, but youll be surprised to see how she climbed those hills to Stone Cl1Ill'L'l1. She has taken the COIll1llQl'l'lll1 Course, and has been sue:-essful in getting :1 medal for speed in typing. i'Speed is l1er middle name. She is also very fond of inusie, so whatever she does we are sure will be gi sm,-eess. CARL LLOYD SMITH Comn1e1'einl Cutie lt you ever observe u sliztrp eyed. wide- :uwuke laid, with nmgnetim- properties and nppurently 21 relative of Harold Lloyd you 1-ould guess it is CZll'l'- Ullfi0 Smith. 4'Uutie is continually surrounlled by an ,group of udiniring Sophs that he attracts like :1 magnet. He was one of the players .on the Glass team of 1923. Cutie enjoys walking in the country, espe:-izxlly f0Vl'2ll'llS fTrein-lilers. He takes friends along for -l'01ll1l1llly until he arrives nenr his destina- tion, and then proceeds to lenve his friends in the lurehg lets them freeze while he is elsewhere. Cutie is very suseeptihle to toothuche VLH but we susper-t that nmny of his leaves of absence are due to his pres- enre with the Hockey Brigade :lt Willeys , especinlly when fl shorth:u1d or typewriting 'test is scheduled. Une of C!utie'iH pet :un- hitions is to hit the ties and eventually arrive nt Hollywood. We xnuy yet see Cutie's physiognoiny on the sc-lieen.
