P-CHS Q THE CYCLE I 1 945 Seniors Audrey Blnkley Boys slow down for a brunette, stop for a red head and back up three blocks for a blonde. Wilma Dennla Girls, listen to me. Don't take life too seriously: you probably won't get out alive anyway. Donna Dew . She is really interested in chemistry. Oh Mr. Isley, how do you work this problem? Vlvlan Doyle When her anger rises, think of the consequences. Zelene Fouke Quite a story teller with a line for everyone, Although they're not best sellers, she's loads and loads of fun. Shirley Galor Through hours, through years, through time she'll bring us hope in gloomy days, And give many happy moments to everyone about her. Naomi Garber A true friend. Although witty and mischievous, always willing another to defend. Never moody, mean, nor grievous. Llla Gatz With her pretty red hair, Lila always gives us her cheery smiles So that we may forget our troubles and care. Carl Gilbert Always standing on the third fioor waiting for someone . . . Wonder who? Nora Hose Your first impression says what need be said, For all you need to know is written on her smiling face. Darlene Houck Bashful, shy, blushing and smiling at passers-by, Laughing in class when there's work to be done, Carefree and pleasing toward everyone. Annabelle Hurlesa A lover of books, with personality bright as the skies. Also clever and cunning in her looks including big brown eyes. Vernon Llnker He is a quiet sort of guy . . . sometimes, And nobody has ever bothered to ask him why. Paullne Llvlngston This is the girl you see doing all those fancy 'steps at dances on Saturday nights. Clarence Lumsden Even the most serious of people have a foolish corner tucked away in them some place. Elllott MeCIeary It's like this . . . or is it this way? No, I'm sure it must be the other way. Wayne Merrlll 1945's pin-up kid. Wonder where he gets those sharp hair cuts. C113
