Ginny is always doing something: commercial work, giggling, or chewing gum. The aiorementioned giggle is famous, it can be recognized anywhere and e've1'ywhere. Wiith her particular gang. Gin manages to raise quite a lot cf VVhoopee and get more than a few pleasures from life. Ginny possess the quality of extreme frankness, which, we regret to say, has st.-metiines an acid sting.

Yes, sir! jiggs is a home-loving chap, since he spends all his time watching the Grocery Store. Probably this will give hini good experience in later life. Close association with all types of people is a very valuable part of one's education. Higgs, although his manner is very gentlemanly, has a keen sense ol' humor. This sense of humor makes him and those around him have a good time. These characteristics cause Joe to have a host of frieiitls. Higgs expects to work next year.

When he is not imitating some sound, he is almost sure to be eulogiz- ing on his favorite theme, Vl'oinen. Inside of school his best work is done in Chemistry. He can usually be found puttering around in the Lab, trying to make or unmake something. He never slights plea- sure for study. . He is planning on Pitt where he will take up Dentistry. We think that Doctor iXiiehele in gold letters will look well on any door.

Those who associated with him lind that he is sur- prisingly intellectual. Ray is a bear for History, and Chemistry is only History to him. If Ray were ambidextrous, we think he could write historical dates with one hand while copying chemical equations with the other. His ambling, loose-jointed, swinging gait, and continual smile, have stamped a permanent impression upon the memories of his classmates. Ray is going to work a while and then go to college. He will probably iinish his studies at Syracuse where he is going to take up Civil Engineering. teen, '29. is quite a golfer C?l. lOl success!

Lawrence plods along his path much in the same way that a great thinker might do. Lawrence, however, does not believe in being troubled with heavy thinking. He believes in taking life as it comes He is jolly, good-natured and easy-going. He very seldom gets much interested except down in the Lab. Here he shines as a chem- istry enthusiast. All his thoughts and ambitions seem wrapped up in Science. Lawrence has not yet decided what he will do in the future. Earl McQuoWn lNIcQuown English Course Jr Red Cross, '26, '27, '28, '29, A.

T H E MIRROR Irene Miller Classical Course -Tr. Red Cross, '26, '27, '28, '29, A. .-X., '29, Art Club, '29. Her face is one szfbsfalztifzl sn11'Ie. Irene's fondest wish is that she had been a boy. However, she tries to olfset this handicap by dressing in a mannish style which suits her mannish grace. Her entrance to her assembly room is not that of a dignified Senior as she frequently comes kiddishly skipping into Hill. ,Irene sometimes forgets herself in class and allows her thoughts to ixander and a dreamy look to creep into her eyes. Irene has a liking for Art and devotes a good deal of her time to that occupation. Shel will either pursue the study of Art at some school or return to P. H. for a P. G. Course.

Her will be do1ze. ' Frances is the tall, stately Senior who usually has her head in the clouds. Her moods, however, are varied. At one moment her merry laugh may resound throughout the room, the next instant she may be down in the depths of despair shouting her customary, Neyer again, l'm through. Her greatest interest is shows, and the Jefferson Theatre owes a lot of its patronage to Coo, who broadcasts the wonders of each new show to the kids. Learning to drive the Chrysler is her weakness now. Frances expects to go in training next September. Here's to your g success, Coo.
