1930 THE TECH REVIEW 23 WHIPPLE HOWARD “Howe” “Howe” came to us from Manton Avenue Grammar School. He arrived a shy an$l quiet boy but look at him now! He is popular among his fellow-students, and is al- ready to have a good time. His favorite subject is music, and the vocational orchestra and band take care of some of his spare hours. He also has an orchestra of his own (that’s what he calls it). “Howe” has done little in the athletic field, but has always been in front when it comes to contri- butions. He expects to enter the business world when he graduates, and with him goes our wishes for the best of luck! RALPH WATSON HOWLAND I he firm of Howland and Knowles is broken up at last. Ralph, the senior member, is leaving. But perhaps we will soon see them at the head of some efficient business. Al- though we don’t often see Ralph at our student dances, he is nevertheless popular with the girls of the school. Ralph is undecided as to his future, but we wish him success in whatever he attempts. LILLIAN GRACE JACOBS Now. ladies and gentlemen, behold one of our fairest co-eds. Lillian’s hair explains the reason why men prefer blondes. This neat, dainty miss has innumerable good qualities. One of Lillian’s favorite sports is dancing, which is one of her many accomplishments and all our socials have succeeded in finding Lillian “among those prerent.” She has also succeeded in obtaining a very good record in her studies as is shown by a little gold pin which she wears. After a P. G. course. Pembroke will claim Lillian’s atten- tion in the fall. Bonne chance, Lillian! Honor Society; French Club, ’27, '28; Glee Club, '26, '27, '28, '29. DONALD ELDRIDGE JEFFREY “Don” Good things are said to come in small packages. If so. no mistake was made when “Don” was wrapped up. He is one of the live wires of our class. It is known that there is a mutual admirafidh on the part of The girls and “Don.” As a member of Mle Four Musketeers, he can often be dis- covered in the lunclj room, experimenting with food com- binations which often prove fatal. The African jungles will perhaps claim Don” as a medical missionary after Temple University finishes with him. Whatever his future may be we know he will meet with success. Good luck. “Don”!

Although this bundle of good7 nau e has been with us only a year, he ha made a gfeat many friends and his marks are proof enouglra Tiis three years at Classical were not wasted. “Rusty X is positively a “shark” at any variety of mathe- matici as well as at English, l ech’s soccer field has also been torn up to a considerable extent by Rusty’s flying feet. After graduating, Russ” intends to go to some higher in- stitution, and perhaps he shall be the future Einstein. Who knows? Soccer, '29. LESTER LE ROY HENRIKSON “Swede” This apparently serious youth deserves the title of l ech’s best-natured Senior. His fine disposition has won the friend- ship of all who know him. “Swede” is the surviving mem- ber of the “Old Guard” of P.A.-7, and of the Hcnrikson- Hendrickson partnership. He is a most loyal supporter of l ech’s athletics with both his cheering and his purse. Lunch, he insists, is his favorite period, although he rates biology a close second. He has never missed a day of school since his entrance. He is undecided as to his course after graduation, but it will be a successful one. MARGARET VIRGINIA HOWARD “Maggie” Where “jigs” ire concerned, so is “Maggie!” We wonder if she can vield a rolling-pin as she does a tennis raquet? Well, mj3ybe so, but Margaret’s so quiet (?) and demure(?). thc fre doubt whether she’d do anything quite so rash. j She has jwKat some people call a “line,” so she hopes to attend thejJEmerson School of Oratory and cultivate it. Good-bye, “Maggie,” but l ech and the class of ’30 will never forget you. Tennis, '29; Clec Club, '28, '29; Debating Society, '29; Aero Club, '29; Metal Art Club, '29.

24 THE TECH REVIEW 1930 EVANGELINE ROBBLEE JERALD Now we come to Evangeline, our innocent appearing 'eyes. She is not, however, as ut quite full of pep with her lthough “Vangy” has not played a he has supported them financially and contests. She is not decided as re- gards her future, but we are sure she will be successful with any vocation she may choose. Good luck, Evangeline! we come brunette with the big, quiet as one would immediatas frie part on lany of (ms. attended' HENRY CLARENCE JOHNSON “Bud” “Bud” came to us from Oxford Street Grammar School, and we certainly appreciate what Oxford did for us when they sent him. He is a quiet, industrious chap who spends a good deal of his free hours as an electrician. During his stay at l ech he has made many friends. He is usually found with his chums, Frank and “Bill.” “Bud says his favorite subjects are mathematics and electricity. He is un- decided as to his future, but we wish him success in all his undertakings. ARTHUR JORJORIAN “Bek” “Beb,” as he is known throughout the school, is one of the most popular fellows mjc ur class. He is known to both the teachers anckjnipils and is seldom seen without a group around him. Inva bLVne is giving them a “line which he can do very Skillfully. “Beb” will certainly miss his vocation, if he dte jjot become a travelling salesman. He is a member of the football team, having played for two years. “Beb Kas won innumerable friends of the opposite sex through hisiooks, or his line, or most likely both. We wish you the best of luck, “Beb ! FootbaU Zp, '29. HELEN ELIZABETH KINNECOM “Bumps” “Milton! Thou should’st be living at this hour: England hath need of thee.” This time Helen was our fair heroine who grasped the helm of our l ech Review in its literary need of the hour. The selection of Helen as our Editor-in-Chief seemed to be unanimous. By her faithful hard work and conscientious study of manuscript the following pages have been made possible. In her quiet and demure personality we find that “still waters run deep.” Her keen sense of humor and good taste combined with her refreshing literary talent have won for her the honor and esteem of both teachers and classmates. Nor shall we forget her sweet disposition that commands the friendship of all who know her. Literary Board, '29, '30; Editor-in-Chief, '30; Debating Society, '29; Sketch Club, '29; Swimming, '26, '27.
