£f)c fldnman, 1920 BROOKS WATSON We are indebted to Brooks for many cartoons, for he is the art genius of the class. Brooks is a real ‘‘hustler ’ and he is always ‘‘hustling for the Seniors. He is also noted for his originality and wit. He will not sink into obscurity hereafter. What well-appointed leader fronts us here? — - Henry IV. MARGUERITE EHRHARDT A perfect lady, conscientious, thoughtful and sweet-tempered; what more can we add? Exceeding wise, fair-spoken, and persuading. — Henry VIII HERMAN H. SMITH He needs no introduction. Friends, this is Herman. Very charming, especially to—but having promised Herman, we dare not say a word about girls. The ladies call him sweet. Loves' Labour Lost. ROBERT SCHNEIDER Robert has worked with untiring effort and has contributed greatly to the success of all our undertakings during our H. S. career. His heart as far from fraud as heaven from earth. I ought! I can! I will!—Reginald Sipfle. Page Twelve

And she is fair and fairer than that word, of wondrous Virtues.”—Merchant of Venice. FINK CHAMPION Our football and basketball hero! He has the Irish temper, wit and humor, as well as complexion. His blush he has always with him. It attracts many (especially girls) to him. “For several virtues have I lilted several women. —The Tempest. RUTH C. BLACK Ruth is one of our trio of school marms. She is a diligent worker and is always in a hurry. She is a reader of no mean ability and has delighted many audiences. For she is wise, if can judge of her.” Merchant of Venice.
