May she always find success wherever she goes. MELVILLE LAWRENCE BRADSHAW “Nebbie” “An ounce of contentment is worth a pound of sadness.” Basketball ’34, ’35, Monogram Club ’34, ’35, Athletic Association ’34, ’35. Nebbie’s hobby is pestering the Seniors. Even though he is a pest, Nebbie is a true friend. ANNIE GERTRUDE CROCKETT “Ann” “To speak kindly of each other is well, But to act kindly is best of all.” What would we do without Ann ? She is here, there, and everywhere, speaking a word of cheer.
