CLYDE NORDSTROM—“A. J ” A born magician. At all school entertainments and exercises Clyde affords a great deal of amusement in “slight of hand. Full of pep and energy he has been one of the most active promoters in helping the class achieve the high reputation which it now holds. Clyde is often found going from house to house, collecting papers, selling tickets and rendering other services to help the class earn money for the Washington Trip. Clyde has never been known to get angry and a sorrowful person could not remain with him long before they would forget all their troubles. ALICE PARSON—' AL” Always seen but seldom heard is Al's motto. She often sits with her head down, and when a glimpse of her face is seen, it is always covered with a broad smile; this is almost invariably followed by a roar of laughter. Once in a great while Alice likes to have people know she is around, and she takes the opinion negative to the majority, getting everyone in a state of anxiety, upon which she bursts out in laughter and joins the crowd. Neverthless, “Al holds a warm place in the hearts of her classmates. EDWIN PFEIL—“EDDIE” The class comedian, and this he is without a doubt. He came to us in his Junior year from Pittsburgh, and for a long while thought that Pitt was just it; but gradually changed his mind from Pitt to “Crosby.n Eddies avocation is dancing, and he sure can strut his stuff. School studies are the least of his troubles, but when it comes to football, track and baseball—that's where Eddie shines. His chief hobby is sleeping in class, but perhaps this is not his fault alone. CHARLES PLUNKETT—'‘CHARLIE” The most bashtul boy in High School. He never even casts a glance toward any girl, but perhaps he is just as well off. Studies and work are primary factors in his life. He is often of much assistance to the other pupils by answering a question which perhaps was not even heard stated by the others; therefore being a friend in need. We think that Charlie will be a farmer in the future, and we know he will make as much of a success of it as he has his other enterprizes.

NAOMI JUNE—“CHUG” Our honor student and willing worker. Naomi joined our class in her Junior year, and has won the love and admiration of all her classmates. Her name often appears on the honor roll, and helping the rest of us with our work means nothing to Naomi. It is rumored that the ring that Naomi wears on the third finger of her left hand means only love and happiness in the future, and all her classmates join in wishing her success. CARL LINNAN—‘•DUCKFOOT” A genius when it comes to cracking jokes on his friends at their expense. Full of fun, oftentimes bursting out in laughter to the awe of the other pupils. At the beginning of the year his hair became very unruly and he found himself in dire necessity of a “Newcomb.’' He certainly acquired this necessity and try and get “her!” He is perfectly at home on football field and basket ball court, doing his share in winning victories on both. In the near future we are sure of seeing him famous as an electrician. RUBY LOVELL—‘ ‘SKEETER “Our Bride.’’ Ruby has been an active member of our class through our high school career having held several class offices. She also has been active on all committees. Ruby was one of our star forwards on the girls' basket ball team. In March she sprang the greatest surprise of the school year by becoming the bride of Kieth McKervy. Congratulations and best wishes for many years of happy married life. HELEN E. NEWLAND—‘-HEN” Helen has been a member of our class since we started in our school career, and has been an indispensable member throughout. Her motto is “work before play.” and when playtime comes Helen is there to participate. She is always on duty, whether it be early or late and can always be relied upon, no matter how great the task. Helen never causes any trouble to classmates or faculty, and we are sure that she will make a name for herself in whatever she undertakes. Helen’s future plans are still unknown to us. but we are sure that she will never be heard of as a physics teacher—we wonder why!!

 TWILA REDINGTON—“RED” Twila has always been held in very high esteem among her classmates. She is often found serving at the Senior suppers and all other activities, always working with an untiring effort. Twila doesn’t like to study much and seems to get along without it. We wonder why! She finds no time to spend with the opposite sex—perhaps she is just as well off. Everyone considers her as a friend because of her cheerful attitude at all times. We are certain that success awaits her in the world. EDWIN SKADEN—“EMO” Emo does not take up much room, but say! he is the biggest little man in high school. He ranks among the first in scholarship, and is a member of the National Honorary Society. He is always active on committees and other class activities. Because of his literary ability, he has been class reporter for some time. To make a long story short, Emo is a real good fellow and a friend to everyone. National Jinnoru Society One of the highest honors which our school can confer upon its graduates is election as a member to the National Honorary Society. Each year as the school year comes to an end, comes the choosing of the members to this Society. Only members of the Senior Class are eligible to belong to it. Twenty-live per cent of the class, those ranking highest in their work throughout their school career are considered by the faculty. However, only fifteen percent of the students are chosen with respect to Scholarship, Leadership, Character and Service to the school. Those chosen from the Class of ’28 as members to this Society are: Edgar Coleman, Robert Fortner, George Grabe and Edwin Skaden. The entire student body wishes to congratulate them through this publication.
