FLORENCE CATHERINE SENNINGER “Shorty” is our “Voice.” You may hear her laugh from hall to hall and then re-echo in the gym. For the past semester she has had the responsible position of Secretary to Superintendent Smith. WARREN EGGER “Bud” has spent his days in Pekin High. His experiences have ranged from being a green Freshie to managing “The Stunt Show. He was never known to lose the smile on his face, no matter what happened, and his ability to make friends will give him a high place in the world. LYSLE VIRGINIA BURNS You now behold Jinny,” the president of her class. She is in reality not as quiet as outward appearances may indicate. In fact, those who know her well insist that she is as merry as the best of them. Pane 15

HELEN MARIE REULING Greater pens than ours might avail as little in trying to do justice to “Skinny.” She has been a real leader and as president of her class, has accomplished exactly what was to be done. Above all, she is made up of an amazingly harmonious mixture of brains and good-fellowship. JOHN J. McGINTY Although John’s heart has been lost, his ability as business manager has been given to the Annual and his affairs of heart have not interfered with his duties (especially that of keeping the “Staff” on the “jump).” MARGARET BERNICE SCHURMAN Campbell’s Soup is widely advertised, but when it comes to good qualities, it can’t compare with our “Soupie.” If you don’t believe that she likes to dance, consult the prophecy.

MARY MILDRED FITZGERALD A girl as happy as “Fitz,” as ready to see the humorous side of life and yet as serious at the proper time would be hard to find. Fitz” is the personification of independence, and for this quality all her classmates envy her. LESTER FARMER Who is this good looking Senior boy with the freckly complexion, and wonderful Titian layback, and girlish pride in looking well? To be sure it is “Red.” But he is all alone. He has actually been separated from the fair sex long enough to have his picture taken! LOUISE ZERWEKH The art editor of the Pekinian really doesn’t need any ad here, as almost this whole book is a demonstration of her efficiency, artistry, and untiring efforts. Page 16
