CAN DANIEL DUNDAS Glee Club I-2-3-4; Pepita ; Bells of Beau jolais ; Riding Down the Sky ; Student Council 2-3-4; Opera Faust; Boys' Quartet Here he is! Tall, handsome, with a grand tenor voice, the most hearty laugh this side of the Rockies, and a smooth dancer. Dan’s a friend worth having. His popularity with both sexes shows us that he is a favorite. He’s managed to spend a few minutes on his lessons so he could be graduated with us. BENEDICT DUNLANY .Secretary Student Council: President Dramatic Club: Senior Play. Out of the Fog ; Senior Dance Committee; Dramatic Club Ploy; Commencement Play The last of the DunLanys! Dick might be the youngest, but he is by no means insignificant. I le spent the last two winters in New York, but he came back because he just didn’t like those New York women. We re willing to bet they liked him though. I lave you seen those eyelashes? Dan” “Dick” Tody PEARL DOUGLAS Glee Club Library Club Basketball Team We believe that this little blond was sent to school for the sole purpose of keeping us from getting blue. For Pearl’s cheery smile and sunny disposition eliminate depressed spirits better than anything we know. HERMAN DOWNING “Herm” Student Council 4 Without a doubt. Herm has the best blush in the school Besides having a perfect blush he also has an exceptionally friendly smile along with exceptionally friendly disposition. We're sure that Betty agrees with this, too. JAMES DRISCOLL “Jim” Red hair and plenty of freckles is an excellent description of this young fellow. The most we can find about Jim is that he works earnestly in Economics. minds his own business, and is a good kid at all times. FRANK DZ1EKCIASZ “Jackie Jackie is a man of few words no he hasn’t got a wife but when he says anything, we all give him our undivided attention. He is a quiet but insistent worker and usually attains what he strives for. HARRIETT EAKIN “Harry Glee Club Basketball Team Harriett is small—cute—full of fun and is often seen riding in an Essex with her grand old friend Arthur. She is one of the bright spots of the business classes. Jim JAMES ELLIOT Orchestra I-2-3-4 Debating Club 4 Alternate on Inter-city Debating Team 3 Student Council 3 1 lere’s another one of those scarce pupils known as “Honor Roll Students. We don’t know why Jim doesn’t give the girls a break. We know some girls that would jump at the chance. Page 27

O I A N ANNA CYPHERT “Ann” This little stranger from afar has made her way quietly into our midst. There is no one who is not cheered a little by the pleasantness of her cheerful little grin.

I larriett may have something to say about it. ANNA DAYTON “Ann” Opera Faust Glee Club 1-3-4 Anna has two great passions, singing and Bernard, but with a voice and dark, twinkling eyes like hers, do you blame her or Bernard much? Maybe you don’t know Anna; in that case, you’re missing something. CHARLES DECKER “Chuck ” Chuck plays chauffeur, adviser, and what-not to Jerry and likes it. In fact, they both do. I le’s a good dancer. We wonder how Chuck can say such humorous things and still keep a straight face. GERALD DEYOE “Jed” Art Club Scene Painter for Cal O Nine Tails A little ford tells me that Jed is quite a lady killer, being as how the ladies (God bless ’em) like a nice gentleman as well as a pretty posie. “Say it with flowers is the proper spirit. Jed. VIRGINIA DINGER “Ginny” Glee Club Virginia's sense of humor has got her many things, friends and -detention.

V CELINDA DOLBY “Bab ” Glee Club 1-2-3-4 When Celinda isn’t talking, laughing. or chewing gum she is entertaining the boy friends. Does Celinda have the cute skirts and sweaters. I’ll say. We only wish we had half of them. Everyone agrees that she’s a good, likeable kid. GERTRUDE DOLBY “Giggles0 Gertrude is an expert at (her) waving hair which she proves by her experience. I ler nickname invariably tells on her nature. A happy cheerful girl with a certain interest in Paul. Page 26
