JUNE THE OICIHI 1921 VIOLA PHILENA CLARK. Viola lives in Rouseville and has only gone to school here a year. We have known her just well enough to want to know her better, for Viola is modest and wouldn’t tell us she was a fine girl, we had to find it out for ourselves. MARY A. COHEN. Mary is a real jolly independent girl, naughty to the point of playing “hooky” on a nice day. It wasn’t necessary this spring for Mary added up her points at mid-term and found she already had sixteen. MARY J. COHEN “The Other Mary” Mary is one of the best-liked girls in the class. She has just enough pep and just enough reserve to be just right and oh how she can dance. HELEN VIRGINIA COLE. The only thing we don’t like about Helen is “Bud.” lie is a nuisance. But outside of that, and, of course, a few other little things, Helen is a good scout. She looks intelligent, time does not pass slowly when one :s with her and the best thing about her is her al-way—present good humor and pleasant nature. Page Twelve

JUNE THE O I CI H I 1921 GLADYS ISABELLE BILTZ. “Oh1 She will sing the savageness out of a bear.” —Shakespeare. Yea. And it might be said that she sang the savageness out of a fox at the Senior picnic; anyway, she captured him. Also ’tis Gladys who puts I he glee in the Glee Club every Wednesday afternoon. When Gladys sings, we feel thrills of real pleasure surging through us. The mystery is how does she escape Edison with his tone tests and Victor with her true to life slogans? We really appreciate her voice, and we have great confidence in her future. X ELIZABETH KATHRYN CAMPBELL. Elizabeth has a sly, vampish glance that is sure to attract one’s attention but it is guileless, for she is a quiet demure lass. We never heard of Elizabeth late or without a lesson and the faculty will miss her next year while she is putting her knowledge of bookkeeping into practice. GEORGE A. CHACONA. Basketball ’18-’19, ’19-20, Captain ’20-’21. Football ’18, ’19, ’20. “Chick” leaves 0. C. H. S. as the captain of the greatest basketball team that the school has yet produced. His leadership had much to do with the team’s success and should have much to do with his y HAZEL MAY CHRISTY, Did you ever hear Hazel translate French? She can do it. The only trouble is the fact that +he rest of the class needs a megaphone—er ear trumpet, when she begins. She has a quiet dignity about her which is rarely seen m High school, and is always a real lady. Page Eleven

JUNE THE OICIHI 1921 LOUISE CONRAD. Louise is in that enviable position of having been proposed to and having turned away at least one male of the species. Whether or not she uses the “yes” and later “no” method, or whether she turns them down immediately, we do not know. We predict that Louise will easily make it a dozen if she sets her heart upon it. MARIE FRANCES COURTNEY. On writing up the Seniors we find that they are all more or less good-natured, but Marie is one of the “mores.” It is so evident and ever present that lver classmates call her “Smiles.” We found out once that Marie is very frank, a quality which is growing rarer every day. Besides that, Marie writes poetry and we think she is susceptible to that other disease that comes in the spring. JEANNETTE CRAIN. Jeannette has only been with us a year, having come from Utica. She is cheerful at school, despite the fact that she must ride on the Erie twice a day. We are glad Jeannette did not get off at the mouth of French Creek, but that it was worth the extra eighteen miles ride to get her diploma from O. C. H. S. JANE CHI BBS. She is one of the sort that does not nee:! to attract attention—she is noticed without any effort on her part. Jane gave us a good time at the first Athletic Association party and she has stood well with the school since. She learns, but does not air her learning. •2S rafie Thirteen
