FRANCES RIPPER “Always had her tongue at will. And yet was never loud.” Frances has shown this splendid characteristic all through her high school career. WINFRED HIMMEL Winfred is numbered among those ambitious youths who have rushed through High School in three and one-half years. It is true he has been rather quiet during his school life, but that has merely given him an opportunity to study and of this he has taken good advantage. DELLA MAY JOHNS “Del” is a quiet girl, full of determination to reach the top no matter what obstacles there are to surmount. We wish her success in her career as a nurse. Page 28

LUCILLE JOSEPHINE GROSSWEILER “A quiet, unobtrusive maid.” Yes, she is quiet, but that hasn’t interferred with the manipulation of her typewriter keys. ELMON FRANKLIN WALTMIRE “Walkee” has slept around here for quite a few years, and has been so quiet about it that he has won a reputation for unobtrusiveness. He has attended his classes now and then, yet we know this kind of a boy, when he does awake, startles the world. MON ETTA M. RILEY Laughing and talking All the day long, A twinkle in her eye. And on her lips, a song. Page 27

MARIE EDEN Some girls long for popularity, but in vain; others never care anything about it; while still others unconsciously acquire it and do not know it. Marie rightfully belongs to this last class. JOHN PFANZ This pompadoured chap is none other than John Pfanz. John is “right there” when it comes to driving a team for the Senior hayrack party. LOUISE PRATT We have seen very little of Louise in the past semester, for she dropped from school in February. At that time having her required credits she accepted a position and was accordingly occupied with her work until time to return for graduation. P a g e 29
