Q.. Y Lliu IDA BERNABY Ida-Ho. Glee Club 1, 2, 3. OfCh6.Yh'!l 1, 2, 3. Class Book Staff. Ida may easily be known as the girl in '29 with the pretty brown eyes. Her ready smile, too, is another asset which tends to make her one of our best-natured girls. Some day shetwill be the mainstay of some big business firm. ELLIOT BLAKESLEY DARTMOUTH l'm inclined to play the Flute. Glen' Club 1, 2,-3, 4. C1151 of .f1llatSeo, Ulllerlon of the llfo5'ie.f,'l Maid and the Middy, The Younge.ft, Riding Down the Sky. Buxinexs lllanager Dramatic flxsooizzliorz 4. Orche.vh'a 4. Pro lllerito. Elliot certainly possesses lots of F. F.-meaning Fatal Fasci- nation. After the presentation of The Youngest, in which Elliot appeared as a young lawyer, a member of the faculty publicly professed herself to have fallen wildly in love with him. Elliot certainly deserves a lot of credit, for he is one of the few boys who are members of the Pro Merito Society. With such a record, we're sure he'll Bud the gates of Dartmouth wide open for him. . RICHARD BLISS The romping red-head. Football 4. Dramalics 3, .,l. Dick was one of the many red-heads in the school play this year. He joined the ranks in 1927 and has been well known for his smile ever since. He is the proud owner of the only green car in school-and what a horn! IRENE BOUCHARD Twinkling fingers. Here's our ambitious commercial student. We know lrene through her skill in typing. Ambition is a great asset for success, and we feel sure that this will lead her there. She won the Junior State Championship last year. This year she walked off with the Connecticut Valley Prize and Senior State Championship. ARLENE BUCKMAN NORTH ADAMS NORL1AL One of the rural lassies. Basketball. Arlene is one of the ardent workers of the Commercial De- partment. She is also an artist. Vile don't know exactly what she plans to do but we expect to hear that she is an illustrator for some famous magazine before long. We all wish her success.

iii RUTH BANISTER Nvork for the night is coming and then the dawn. Gym. Ruth has not followed our paths of glory to any great extent but she has many close friends and they are what really make life worth living after all. She is of an industrious nature and we should have more like her. The thriving settlement ol Florence claims her as a loyal supporter. lVe are glad to see you come but sorry to see you go. GERALDINE BARTLETT BAY PATH French shark? Glee Club 4. Voice Clam 4. Debaringg, 4. Gerry is a very quiet member of the class, butialways has a ready laugh and is a good sport. She entered the Glee Club in her senior year, and we were quite surprised to hear how much music she really can make. She was also a member ot the De- bating Soclety. Ministers seem to appeal to Gerry and we can understand why she is always going to church. She plans to go to Bay Path next year. RUTH BARTLEY WV12s'rF1el.o NORNIAI, Quiet waters run deep. Qvm. Glee Club. Ruth is one of our attractive blondes. She is very fond of indoor and outdoor sports. During Ruth's four years at N.H.S. she has been an active member of the Glee Club. Ruth is a very pleasant person to have about. If blondes were all like Ruth, we shouldn't blame gentlemen for preferring them. ETHEL BECKMANN One of those vampish brunettes. Students' Review. Glas Club 1, 2, 3, 4. Clos: Book. Voire Clam 5, 4. Becky is one of our vivid, sprightly girls, with lots of vim and pep to her. She has made many friends here and will make many more wherever she goes. Becky has been a member of the Glee Club for four years, and a staunch supporter of the Vocal Class. Her future is as yet unsettled, but we know that she will make a success of whatever she undertakes. LEO BERNACHE DARTMOUGH Do not trust in the face. Dramatic: 2, 3, 4. Glee Club 2, 3, 4. Pro Me1'ito. Orchestra 1, 2, 3, 4. Harmony Class 1, 2. Leo is one of the most popular boys in our class. He is a member of the Glee Club and Orchestra, and has taken very active parts in all our plays and musical comedies. Leo is a member of the Pro Merito Society and was chosen vice-president of the same at the meeting held in Greenfield last fall. He plans to chaperone his other half, Elliot, at Dartmouth next year, but we're afraid Elliot won't get much chaperoning as neither of them would feel at home in Jupiter's spherical regions.

V I-lil CHESTER BUCKMAN S.O.S. CShine our shoes.j Football 4. Here's a well-liked fellow from Goshen. We like him because of his important position at the HY. Chet has a habit of for- getting that he's in ax class room at irregular intervals but he offsets this habit by getting in some very good recitations. GLADYS CARSON I Her eyes are like stars, etc. Flower Girl. Class Secretary 4. Gym 1. Cast of Alice-Sit-by the Fire. Class cheer leader 2, 3, 4. School News Editor 4. Glee Club 4. Program Com. Riding Down the Slay 4. Head Usher in The Youngest 4. Dramatic Association 1, 2, 3, 4. Debating 1, 2. This petite person is not as demure as she looks. As a matter of fact she's full of fun and mischief. For four years Glad has been busy doing things for '29, VVarm-hearted, witty and sincere, she has rnade many true friends-not all of whom live in Hamp. This sometimes makes her absent minded. Ask Mr. Hoffman what he thinks of the way she handled the photo- graphic appointments for Nesaki. May she always be as happy as we remember her as Flower Girl. DOROTHY COUNCIL The sharp tongue brooks no interference. Qvm 2. Glee Club 2, 3, 4. Class Treasurer 3, 4. Dramatic flssoriation 3, 4. Voice Class 4. Pro Merilo. Cast of Maid and the lliiddyf' Riding Dawn the Sky. Dot ought to be a lawyer-she certainly can argue! Once she almost persuaded 'Miss Monroe to shorten a Math assign- ment. Dot is the only member of the S.S.S. Club who still keeps her cute bob. Perhaps the trouble that the hair pin shedders have in keeping their pugs in place is the reason. Dot is Pro Merito, so we're sure she won't have trouble Kmuchj with her studies when she's in Smith. PAUL COONEY BROXVN Runt but Romantic. Class Secretary 2. Illanager Basketball 4. Debating Society. Dramati: Association. Paul belongs to the small in size part of ,29, but he has a big reputation. He is popular with both boys and girls, because he has a great sense of humor, Don't worry about Paul's getting ahead in this world, he's the kind that can get along anywhere. HELEN DALEY i Noirru ADAMS NORMAL Editor of the Daley News. Debating Society 2, 3, 4. Treasurer 2. Dramatic flssoriation 4. Helen hails from Franklin Street and she certainly is a sport. We wonder what she'll do without that certairt party when' It comes to out-of-town games. Helen never believed mltakmg books home, so we conclude she did most of herstudymg be- tween periods. She was a staunch 'backer of athletics, appearlng at many games. Vile like your spirit, Helen!
