META Twenty-one EDITH L. DURKEE “A light heart lives long.” The light-hearted blue-eyed lassie above is one whom you will long re- member as “Edie,” one of the most popular girls of our class. Her sparkling smile and winning person- ality have been the secrets of her charm and popularity. We feel sure that “Edie” will bask in the radiance of a successful career as she has made many of us bask in the warmth of her true friendliness. Smile, Edith, smile — we like you best that way. HARLAND E. DURKEE “A true friend, like unto no other.’ ' VARSITY HOCKEY SENIOR PLAY TRAFFIC SQUAD STRAND NIGHT CHEER LEADER Certainly “Duke” never makes him- self obnoxious by talking too much, but that might be said to be a virtue that could be observed by a great many people. He goes his own way conscientiously and quietly, and never attempts a task unless he can finish it. Keep it up “Duke.” DOROTHY M. EADE “Good things come in small packages.” BASKETBALL STRAND NIGHT Introducing a tiny miss, known and loved by all of us. Always ready with a gay smile and friendly manner, “Dot” has proved a pleasant com- panion and true friend. And can “Twinnie” play basketball? ' Well, just one peek into the gym will con- vince you. Did someone say talk ? Of course a conversation would not be animated without “Dot” to help in it. In all you do, we’re with you, “Twinnie!

Twenty META HENRY T. DOOLING “Better late than never. ” META How admirably that quotation suits Henry! One may see Henry casually walking- up Central street at about 8.15 every morning with a smile on his face and apparently without a care in the world. But the cause of Henry’s tardiness is his industry, which in the years to come will bring to Henry his full measure of true suc- cess. B. VERONICA DULLEA “A merry heart doeth Rood like a medicine.” TRAFFIC SQUAD Having spent five years in the com- panionship of this popular girl, we are conscious of her many admirable qualities but are at a loss to find suit- able words. Her vivacious and ener- getic spirit renders her a most helpful associate in all High School activities. May good luck and success attend her in the future. RUSSELL F. DUNN “A fellow of infinite jest.” About this light-hearted boy, much need not be said. Melancholy disap- pears when he comes into sight; laughter abounds wherever he is. At every by-road may he meet hap- piness and have the courage to greet every difficulty with a laugh, for it is in the face of opposition that mis- fortune takes flight.

Twenty-two M E T A HAZEL L. EAUE “Laughter holding both his sides.” CLASS OFFICER STRAND NIGHT A flashing smile, a quick gesture, laughing eyes and we have Hazel, twin sister to “Dot.” We admire her for her scholastic ability as well as her quick wit and pleasing person- ality. Hazel has always been one of our most enthusiastic members in whatever activity came up. Bubbling over with “pep” she laughed her way into our hearts to stay and we feel sure her smile will win friends for her always. MARJORIE I. EARP “For a dreamer lives forever. And a toiler dies in a day.” WOMAN’S CLUB META Marjorie’s frank and lovely person- ality is perhaps the most free from restraint of anyone’s we have ever known. Marjorie is also distinguished by her very agreeable habit of weav- ing boundless day dreams, the fre- quency of which is the delight and wondei’ment of all her friends. Peter Pan of ’31, please “never grow up!” CATHERINE M. FAY “A daughter of the Gods, And most divinely fair.” A sunny, wistful smile carried Catherine straight into the sanctuary of our hearts and this same lovely smile is bound to carry her far along the rose-strewn path to happiness. Her willingness to learn and enthu- siasm in carrying out her tasks have won our admiration and esteem. One and all, we extend to you our best wishes.
