DORRANCE CHANDLER Dorrance has a little Ford, Its coat is made of tan. Its tires are made of rubber. And its body ' s made of can. Though she says she doesn ' t smoke Murads, Dorrance is nonchalant in everything she does. She ' s a regular doer, accomplishing much with either her hands, her voice, or her feet. She danced her way to dancing captain. She talked her way to Damon Contest winner. She designed her way to art editor of this annual — and she sneezes her way to chapel 1 JOHN CHILD Like a book agent, Johnny Child wends his way from class to class toting a large brown satchel containing the various portable brains necessary to his scholastic pursuits. Johnny ' s genial smile characterizes him as having a cheery, sociable disposition. This has not, how- ever, deterred him from doing a huge amount of competent work as manager for Ka Punahou. Unruffled Johnny gained widespread notoriety through his valiant attempt to wear Valentino sideburns. Some of Johnny ' s classmates disa- proved. The sideburns couldn ' t stand the gaff, and now Johnny pursues the even tenor of his wav without them. WAI JANE CHUN Wai Jane joined the Class of ' 30 in its Junior Academy stage. Ever since, she has been a leaven to raise the class ' average grade. Her spirited oratorical talents placed her amongst the four best in the Constitutional Oratorical contest. She has shown a huge capacity for hard work in the Ka Punahou office, and again as enthusiastic presi lent in the work of the Chinese club. Both in a scholastic way and in a wide range of school activities Wire Jane has done much for the Class of ' 30. HOWARD CLARKE Bug reels off two dollar words so care- lessly that it is evident that he must read Web- ster for recreation, llpon demand he is always willing to deliver his free orations upon Buddhism and The Pillars of the Anglican Church . However, his linguistic abilities often touch upon subjects of a lighter nature. His sense of humor has made him Ka Puna- hou joke editor on two staffs. If he realizes his ambitions he will be a professor of history at Vale — or Vassar. 31

BETTY BURDEN ' Betty is the envy of all the girls for her hair and her always unruffled disposition. She is a shark, especially in English, and if ever her name is absent from the honor roll it is sure to be a mistake. She has traveled a lot, once lived on Guam and in Hongkong, but Punahou seems to hold a fatal attraction for her, as she always comes back. She believes in the motto aim high , and its fulfillment occupies most of her time. WILLARD BUSCHER A charter member of the class of ' 30, Wil- lard left the sixth grade to attend Monte- zuma. The mainland could not hold him, however, and he returned to graduate with the class. He is well known for his taste in shirts, which runs to challis in brilliant colors. Altho ' few know it, he can toot on the cor- net most surprisingly. He is a hiking en- thusiast and a good tennis player. He ' s one of those surprising and little known objects, — a boy who generally steers clear of girls. FAITH CAMERON Faith is one of those blondes — nuff sed, also half of that combination known to fame as the Faithless and Ruthless Camerons. She was once likened to Circe in Ka Punahou, and still gets all het up when reminded of that fact. She is noted for her driving which is speedy but sure, and her last minute assign- ments which always get by. During the term she can be found at the hash house, but holi- days find her headed straight for the Hua- lalai, Maui, and home. NEWTON CAMPBELL A high flier in more ways than one, Newtie is a full-fledged pilot, headed for an aviation school after graduation. His interests are not all up in the air, however, for a hash house member helps to hold him down. He has been a halfback on the football team for two years, as well as pitcher on the baseball squad. His red Chrysler roadster is a familiar sight, and Newtie ' s cheery Want a lift? has got many a boy to the dentist ' s on time. 30

Aside from her musical abilities she was Junior class secretary and assistant editor of both Ka Punahou and the Oahuan. SAM CUTTER With a style of humor all his own, this happv-go-lucky person will always be remem- bered as a blues-killer. Sam ' s services as end on the football squad and hurdler have been climaxed by his captaincy of the baseball team this year, while as top-sergeant of Com- pany E, Sammy was more than good-natvired. DAN DALY In the fall of ' 2S there arrived in our midst a swarm of Daly ' s led by none other than our friend Dan. His experiences at Leilehua High had so adapted him to the Punahou spirit that he only visited the Lily Pond once a week for the first semester. Students of Math III have estimated that he has asked 99,999 questions during his chemistry course. But for all of this his fighting Irish has placed him high in the tennis ranks. Dan has the making of a cham- pion. 32
