JUNE CLASS MARGARET NAOMI ANDREWS “Peggy” “In hrr we find sobriety Yet mixed withal, with gaiety.’’ O. G. Club: Spanish Club; Biology Club: Page Special Society; Girls’ Chcrus; Athletic Association. A good smile and a word of cheer for everyone, that’s Margaret. She never fails to have her les- sons well prepared, but still, odd to say, she hates tests. That’s where she differs from the rest of us. May her life be as bright and happy as our high school days were. KATHRYN ROBERTS BEACKV ■ ' Sassy” “Always laughing, always jolly, .Always full of fun and folly.” -Athletic .Association. Step lively, everybody — here ' s “Sassy,” the snap- piest little dancer we know of. She’s a grand mixer with everyone and always ready to play pranks on her teachers and friends. Her motto is, Laugh and the world laughs with you, weep and you weeii alone.” GEORGE STROTHER BERNARD “George” “Kindness is wisdom. There is none in life But needs it and may learn.” Secretary, Public Speaking Society; History Club; 4-L Civics Club; 4-H Civics Club; Junior Hi- ' ; Daniel Literary Society; Football Squad; Athletic Association. “Let George do it,” says an old adage or proverb. Quite right. He will and gladly. This specimen of St. Bernard is one of the quiet, reserved, easy- going, studious fellows of which there are so many in the High School . What-ta whopper! George has no equal at hitch-hiking and thinking up novel ideas. For some reason or other he has suddenly become interested in statistics. Why? CHARLES KILGO BRADSHER “Charlie” Friendliness encourages friendship.” Public Speaking Society; Page Special; Biology Club: 4-L Civics Club; History Club. Charlie” possesses a happy smile that will never wear off, has plenty of pep, and says things that would make anybody laugh. .Although he is rather timid in the presence of young ladies, he is a true sport and liked by all. ETHEL MAE BREEDEN “Jada” “.A thing of beauty is a joy forever.” Secretary, Daniel Literary Society; History Club: 4-L Civics Club; 4-H Civics Club: Secretary, Spanish Club: .Athletic Association: Class Statijtician; Stu- dent Council: Reporter, The Alissile. Don’t let that innocent look in Ethel’s eye lead you astray! Gaze again upon the girl who loves hot dogs and Packards, who can out-talk Aliss Riddle and Mr. Burns (which is no small accomplishment I and who makes a golden every month. She is the solution to the question that has baffled us, why gentlemen prefer blondes.

EDWIN MORRISON YOUNG “Ath-e” “IVc shall not look upon his like again” Juri ' cr Hi-V: Senior Hi-Y; Page Literary Society; ’ice-Presi(jent, History Club: 4-L Civics Club; 4-H Civics Club; Football Squad; Public Speaking So- ciety; Editor, School Weekly News; Associate Editor, The Missile; ] Ieml)er, Page Debating Team. “Cutie’s” middle name is versatility. He’s smart, quite good at an editor’s job, a good actor, and what’s more, an ’‘athlete.” Taking him all in all, he’s hard to beat! NETTIE ROSE ZITTA “Ned” “Blushing is the color of virtue.” History Club; 4-L and 4-H Civics Clubs. Nettie is shy and blushes frequently, but this does not keep her from being a good student. She is as quiet and studious as her teachers wish her to be. — 26 —

Secretary and Treasurer, June Class; Assistant Business Manager, The Missile; Business Manager, The Missile; 4-L Cicivs Club; 4-H Civics Club; Athletic Association. Leonard is good-natured. Much to our surprise, we found that he could realize the responsibility of a task; so we gave him plenty of them. If Leonard hits his mark — and we know he will — there’ll be another lawyer somewhere in this universe. VIRGINIA NEWELL BULIFANT “Ginia” Come let ns go while we arc in our prime. And take the harmless jolly of the time. History Club; 4-L Civics Club; 4-H Civics Club; Biology Club; Athletic Association; Spanish Club; Girls’ Chorus; Chemistry Club. Do you know Ginia?” Well, if you don’t, you have missed meeting a regular girl and a true friend. Don’t try to make her angry, ’cause you’re just wasting your time. It’s impossible to do it. We all crave to know why she liked to study about the Spanish Armada. There is always a reason. ISRAEL CANTOR ‘Tzzy” Honest and sincere, a true friend to everyone. 4-L Civics Club; Public Speaking Society; 4-H Civics Club; Editor-in-Chief, Cavanaugh Special; History Club; .Athletic .Association. “Izzy?” Yes, sir, you can get loads of fun out of him. He’s one of our most prominent class members. His favorite pastime is eating cheese tid-bits in Latin class. LEROY FRANKLIN CLEMENTS ‘Gozy” With lots of pep, sincere in mind, The truest friend yoicll ever find. Public Speaking Society; Biology Club; History Club: Orchestra: 4-L Civics Club; Spanish Club; Athletic Association; President, June Cla s. Gozy” has a winning personality an acquaintance could never forget. He is a quiet, witty, deep- thinking student, who proves his worth every time. Surely the future holds rich rewards for this studious young chap. ETHEL MAE CORNETTE “Saxophone” In every class you need a smile. So smile and make your life worth while. Ethel’s hobbles are “gassing” and laughing. Her nickname fits her to a T (not to mention the rest of the alphabet). Bookkeeping? Man, she takes it as it comes — there’s no worrying her over it. - 28 -
