HELEN APPLEBY Glee Club. Library Club. Helen was one of the passengers in that large sedan that came to school every morning, filled to capacity with knowledge-seekers. Even though 1 ielen appears to be a quiet girl, she has plenty of pep and does a lot of talking. ELEANOR BALPH Junior Dance Committee; Senior Dance Committee; Dramatic Play; Senior Play; Senior High News Staff 2-.t; Oil Can Staff; Glee Club; Debating Club; Secretary Library Club; Treasurer Girl Reserves; French Club. In Eleanor we have the rare combination of beauty and brains. Her name is prominent in the minds of all who had the opportunity of witnessing the excellent talent displayed by her in the Senior Play. After all is said and done, “Dode” continues to reign supreme. CHARLES BARBER “Kid Gloves” I he foundation of all the boisterous outbursts in here about this old chap. However, this Siverly fellow has quite a volume of good facts when ne has a chance to spill them. KENNETH BECHTEL “Ken” Football. P. D. Club. Hi-Y Club. Hi-Y Club Girl Reserve Play. When you hear the footsteps approaching on horseback you know it’s our smiling Ken from Siverly. His happy-go-lucky way appeals with us all and we will miss him very much when he gallops away. MILDRED BECHTEL Micky” Mildred is one of the shorter members of our class. But heighth has no effect upon disposition for although Mildred is short she has won a host of friends by her congenial and willing spirit. OPAL BECK “Oppie” P. D. Club. World's Friendship Circle. Opal is one of our more quiet girls, but she is also one of our shining lights. What an easy life the teachers would have if all their pupils were like Opal! RUTH BEIGHTOL “Mo” World Friendship Circle; Glee Club; Latin Club; Library Club; Secretarial Club. Ruth is one of Miss Cribbs’ shining lights but like the proverbial light, she’s always out. An artist too. Quite an accomplished girl—but aren't they all? RUTH BELL “Boots” We don’t know how she manages it but it’s a cinch she sure can act shy and bashful in class. A winning smile and sweet personality make her a true friend outside of the class room. TWILA BENDER “Toots” Glee Club. Secretarial Club. Twila Bender: Here we have one of the many Senior High Brunettes. Now we are not positive, but Twila seems to be quite t he little lady, Very conservative but always congenial. GUS BENSON “Swede” One of the West End Bensons, who is rather hard to figure out, but who has made so many friends with his quiet and unassuming manners. Future luck is in store if he still maintains girl shyness

Hob has certainly made a fine president to bring us through our Senior year. He is a great leader and well liked by every member of our class.

KATHLEEN WEISER “Kate” Student Council 2; Secretary Commercial Club 3; Secretary Senior Class; Junior Nominating Committee; Literary Staff of Oil Can. Kate hails from the bloody South Side.

OR IE ANDERSON “Dave” Orchest ra Glee Club. Hi-Y. This girl is the fastest talker in our class—but she always has something to say -That is why she is on the honor roll. Although Orie has not been out of school on account of lovesickness, we tliink that some day he will be giving Fritz Kreisler pointers on pullin' horsehair over E, A, D, G. In other words, a fid Her—not a Romeo. k r ADELAIDE ALBAUGH “Addle” Senior Hi-News Staff; Vocal Solo 1st Place 2; President Office Club 3; Lead Bells of Beaujolais 2; Glee Club Board 4; Riding Down The Sky 4. Adelaide was always sure of one of the leading feminine parts in all the ojierettas. She doesn’t spend all her time singing, for she was one of the typists for the school paper, and we see her and Dick together quite often. FRED ANDRES Baker Banking. 3. Problems of Democracy Club. 3. Our class would surely be at a loss if we didn’t have likeable Fred. Does Fred like to discuss Foreign matters— well that's your question—you answer it. MILDRED ANDERSON “Mil Commercial Club. Mil is one of three reasons for the sudden enthusiasm for Henry’s Bend. Hailing from Siverly, Mil. Dot, and Beck form triumvirate ready for anything. A ‘ V STELLA ANDRES “Mike” I-atin Club. French Club. 4. Glee Club. 4. Woe be the one who picks a quarrel with this fair young maiden for we hear from indirect sources that she has a terrible temper. We hope she loses it when she passes from the sordid walls of Senior.
